Yep, it's our last show of 2016, and we go out with a tune -- several of them, actually. Our guest is our good friend Pat Sajak, and along with the returning @RobLong, we end the year with a look back at the big stories (yes, there were a few), and some of our favorite Christmas tunes. What are yours? Tell us in the comments.
Thanks for listening to us this year -- it was our biggest year ever in terms of downloads. We very much appreciate it and look forward to serenading your ears in 2017.

It was great having Pat back on the podcast! Quite a jolly time.
For Peter and Pat and James, this is my favorite rendition of The Holly and the Ivy, by pianist George Winston. It will make you remember the tune no matter who's playing it.
Cheers and best wishes to you all. Very glad to be continuing with Ricochet into 2017—and beyond!

Holly and the Ivy, now there's a blast from the past. We'd sing it in music class in elementary school (1970's in Maryland).
My favorite has always been Carol of the Bells but then Trans-Siberian Orchestra absolutely pounded that song into the ground. This year's favorite is I Want A Hippopotamus for Christmas.
