🎄 It's the most wonderful time of the year, and Dave and Cody are diving into a Christmas classic on this episode of Pop Culture Pastor. Join the duo as they explore Frank Capra's iconic film, It's a Wonderful Life, starring the beloved Jimmy Stewart.
But first the duo kicks off with a curious case of a church choir's rendition of Madonna's "Like a Prayer" that went viral, sparking a whirlwind of reaction videos and social media debates. But was it actually a church?
Then the guys get the Be Kind Rewind started by discussing the "Its A Wonderful Life's" heartwarming themes, its impact on pop culture, and why it's become a staple of the holiday season. They also delve into the film's historical context, including its initial reception and the fascinating FBI memo labeling it as a potential communist influence.
Of course, no episode would be complete without a little fun as Dave and Cody "Muppetize" the movie, reimagining the cast with their favorite Muppets. Plus, they debate what holds up in the film, what doesn't, and who the real winners and losers of the movie are.
Whether you're a longtime fan of It's a Wonderful Life or discovering it for the first time, this episode is sure to bring some holiday cheer. Join the conversation and share your thoughts on this timeless film!
