THE WASSAIL CHRISTMAS SPECIAL – with Jon Alloway and Surprise Inside

December 22, 2015 By Eric

THE WASSAIL SHOW CHRISTMAS SPECIAL!
With Jon Alloway, musical guest Surprise Inside, and the Army of Drunks’ Tiny Audience!

Ever been Wassailing? Well don’t. It’s based on a horrible drink made of eggs, lager, wine, and Dickensian despair. But it’s Christmas, and we get drunk on it so you don’t have to!

Welcome to the Army of Drunks Christmas Special! Forget the bullshit “War on Christmas,” we’re going after Santa, more specifically, the SantaCon Rampage, a once-proud tradition of culture jamming now filthy with hipsters and douchebags! Join us as we sit down with Jon Alloway, a veteran of the Los Angeles Cacophony Society as he tells us about the Krampus Run, a new tradition that celebrates St. Nicholas’ evil goat-headed partner in crime.

Also, all-improv band Surprise Inside regales us with christmas songs whipped-up-right-there-on-the-spot. We welcome our first Tiny Audience. And we learn what’s the only thing that can stop a bad Santa with a gun.

Warning: Contains Star Wars spoilers. Suck it, Bantha.

DRINK ALONG AT HOME!
Don’t.

Just don’t. We tried a big steaming bowl of Wassail on the show, and we don’t recommend the experience for anything. It’s like drinking a glass of German cinnamon omelette. However… If you insist on drinking where angels fear to tread, MixMa$ter Therm recommends Alton Brown’s recipe. We are linking to it here. The rest is on your head.

THE HOT TODDY CHRISTMAS EVE SPECIAL
with Everybody Get In Here

Don’t spend Christmas Eve drinking sad and alone! Spend it drinking sad and alone with the Army of Drunks! Join musical guest improv comedy band Everybody Get In Here as we learn the history of the Hot Toddy, the drink King George the First called “laxative.” We also learn about Spork’s trip to a Russian Christmas Gun Party, devise cocktails based on 2014’s biggest assholes, and find out what’s in Shaw’s Christmas Craw on our slightly-longer Christmas Eve special.

DRINK ALONG AT HOME!
The Army of Drunks Hot Toddy

1 1/2 oz bourbon
1 tablespoon honey
lemon
1/4 cup boiling-hot water
Cinnamon stick
Clove studs

Pour bourbon and honey into a mug. Slice up lemon, because it’s useless to you whole. Add a slice of lemon to your water and boil it in whatever way makes you feel safe. Take another slice and stud it with cloves for no other reason than it looks cool. Pour boiling water into mug with honey-booze mixture. Add cinnamon stick and clove-studded lemon slice. Drink until you feel good about Christmas.
