Show Notes
On today’s Round Robin, Tracy leads the table through the many faces of Ebenezer Scrooge — from the dark, musical rage of Albert Finney’s 1970 Scrooge, to the sharp corporate cruelty of Bill Murray’s Frank Cross in Scrooged.
Along the way, the team dives into:
How many Scrooges have appeared on screen (and why each era gets the one it deserves)
Dickens’ real anger behind A Christmas Carol
Victorian-era language we no longer use — and what it actually meant
Holiday trivia, modern parallels, and the Scrooge that feels uncomfortably familiar today
It’s festive, funny, a little dark — and very Round Robin.
🎄 Because Scrooge never disappears… he just changes clothes.
Theme song, background music, researched, recorded & edited by Tracy Preston
