My Fox News Chicago segment airs again this weekend, and if you missed it, here it is online too. Also, Many people have been emailing me about Netflix's The Movies That Made Us/Elf episode. Yes, that is the Netflix project I assisted with and the book they are talking about is my first book. Maybe that is why we are selling so many copies of that "Big Rankin/Bass book," #rankinbassproductions #christmas2020
I have been setting all kinds of records with mail this year! I have never signed and sent this much ever🎅 A problem has developed, that I discussed with my mailman Larry today. All of the mail I send goes out Priority mail, some of it has been stuck in the system (In some cases for weeks) and tracking just says "Package arriving late." I am told it has been tracked to the distribution center in Forest Park, IL. The post master says he is aware of the problem and the packages will make it to their destinations. I hope they get it moving for Christmas delivery 🙏 a few have been mad at me for this 🧑🎄 #Rankinbassproductions #truckloads #PriorityMail

I saw a fan in one of our Rankin/Bass groups, shared an article by a classic TV network that had errors in it about Frosty the snowman. It said June Foray, who I became friends with and interviewed extensively, did the voice of Karen and then was replaced by an unknown actress after a few airings in the early seventies. FALSE: Her original recording as Karen made it onto the MGM soundtrack album, but never made it on to CBS television. She was the voice of the school teacher and some of the school children. This is covered in my books and liner notes to the MGM digipack cd release too. Maybe they did their research on Wikipedia? I have no idea. #Frostythesnowman #Juneforaydonovan ☃️
