Today we commune with the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future. Jared Bowen, Callie Crossley, and Edgar B. Herwick III co-host this month’s Wednesday Watch Party and revisit all the screen lives of “A Chistmas Carol.” Dickens’ tale has been adapted hundreds of times — from silent films and mid-century classics to animated versions, musicals, and comic riffs. The hosts ask listeners what versions resonate the most with them and who is their favorite Scrooge.
Jared Bowen is the Emmy award-winning Executive Arts Editor and host of The Culture Show, a daily radio program and podcast at GBH exploring the creative process through a lively mix of local and national artist profiles, performances and exhibitions.
Edgar B. Herwick III is the guy behind GBH’s Curiosity Desk, where he answers your questions and explores some of the everyday mysteries hiding in plain sight. Feedback? Questions? Story ideas? Reach out to Edgar at edgar.herwick@gbh.org.
