Twas the holiday season, and all through the server, the listeners were scheming, with all kinds of fervor. They listened to old episodes they loved and cared, but turned that love, into destruction and despair. One by one they shared their plight, of episodes they would plunder with delight They submitted their recordings with glee, as Iso wrapped them and put them under the tree. Now Sam! Now Ricky! Now Bay! On Maarekelets! On Iso! On Steve! On Filmkid! On Rich! To the the server! Let’s post it, and pray for our plight! Happy Christmas to all at CGT, and to all a good night. ---------
