You’d think that after all the huffing and puffing they’d been doing about the “War on Christmas” that Fox News would actually do as they said…
This is a popular Chanukah download from this blog year after year, so I’m posting it again: Give the Jew Girl Toys by Sarah Silverman. I still have to see her film Jesus is Magic and her rendition of The Aristocrats from the film bearing the same name.

Yesterday, we had a 1980’s television high-tech hero save Christmas; today, let’s go back a decade farther and enjoy the Christmas-saving adventures of the 1970’s favourite high-tech hero: Colonel Steve Austin, better known as The Six Million Dollar Man!
In today’s offering, I’ve got two of four recordings of Steve Austin’s Christmas adventures. The first is The Toymaker, in which Steve thwarts the Russkies from getting their paws on a top-secret device. The second is the Kris Kringle Caper, Steve becomes a department store Santa Claus to thwart an espionage ring. What adventures!
The voice work is typical for a radio play; the guy playing th epart of Steve Austin sounds more like Jon Stewart doing his impression of George W. Bush. As for the “bionic” sound effects that were one of the show’s trademarks, they apparently couldn’t get their paws on the ones used on the TV series, so they came up with their own.
Here are the sound files:
- The Toymaker (6.9 MB MP3)
- The Kris Kringle Caper (8.3 MB MP3)
I’ll post the other two files tomorrow! Enjoy!
Today on Global Nerdy:
C’mon, would Scoble show an image like this for the story about Google deprecating its SOAP API on his blog? Arrington? Om? My newest LinkedIn buddy, Jason Calacanis? (Okay, he might, and I think Marc Canter would too.)
But seriously, folks: for smart-headed and smart-assed tech news, Global Nerdy’s the place to go.
Oh, yes — Adam Sandler’s Chanukah Song comes not in one, not in two, but three distinct versions! The Chanukah Song, Part III also features a guest appearance by half-Jewish, half-Filipino Rob Schneider, star of many movies I wouldn’t rent unless I was extremely, extremely hurting for entertainment.

Before Baywatch David Hasselhoff had another hit TV show: Knight Rider. Running from 1982 to 1986, it was the first of many shows based on a crime-fighting character paired with a high-tech vehicle; it inspired shows like Airwolf, Blue Thunder and Viper. While the vehicles in those other shows were impressive, none of them held a candle to Knight Rider’s car, KITT, short for Knight Industries Two Thousand (this was back when “2000” sounded futuristic and not “that was so six years ago”).
That’s because none of them saved Christmas — only KITT did that, and the tale is told in this so-bad-it’s-good rap number called KITT Saves Christmas. Enjoy!
