Seem familiar? Get your tickets today for A Miracle on 34th Street Classic Radiocast to see why Robert Faires is all worked up.

Use early bird discount code PENGUIN at checkout now through Nov 30 for a special price!

ID:
Robert Faires stands at a vintage style microphone holding a script. In the first part of the video he is putting on a silly voice and yelling angrily “I’ll have a straight jacket on that man by the end of the day!” Above his head it reads “‘That’ dinner guest.” In the second part, after a pause he drops that persona entirely and smilingly says “We’ll be back after this brief intermission.” Above his head it now reads “the host.”
