What A Cartoon! - A Garfield Christmas

PATREON.COM/TALKINGSIMPSONS
About this episode

It's time for the first of two holiday cartoons for the end of 2020! After covering Garfield's Halloween toon in 2018, we return again to the Monday-hater's second holiday special. Garfield hates heading to the farm for Christmas, until he sees that he can eat a bunch of stuff and hang out with a rockin' Grandma Arbuckle. All that plus a mix of sad stories and confusing Odie side plots in this week's seasonal podcast!
