We’re excited for Christmas, and we’ve decided to a bunch of cool things for our Club Bald Move members, and this is one of those things. Each (business) day we’re going to pull a shot off the old Bald Move Boozemas tree, drink it down, and then sing a verse of “The 25 Days of Bald Move Christmas”, and then gab a bit.
Day two of the 25 Days of Bald Move Christmas rolls on! If you want to stuff our stocking with Christmas cheer, drop us a line at christmas@baldmove.com or on the VIP section of our forum. We’re open for suggestions on activities or song lyrics. I think Dr. Ken has talked us into downing our 3 weekend shots before each LWJ&A in December, so THAT should be fun.
Hey there! Merry Day 3 of the 25 Days of Bald Move Christmas!! We’ve strung up a bit more lights in the old studio, and admire some of the fan cards we’ve been getting, pull another couple of bottles off the tree, and unleash our third verse. as always, if you want to stuff our stocking with Christmas cheer
Whooo! We get our weekend started off RIGHT by power slamming 3 Days of Christmas, which of course means three grabs of booze of the old tree. This led to a memorable Lunch with Jim and A.Ron, which we recorded immediately after. Well, I don’t think I’m going to remember a bit of it, but you know, it’s recorded, so there’s that. 3 days, 3 drinks, 3 new versus of our song, and we’ll see you Monday as we resume our countdown to Xmas!
Thanks Dr. Ken for the inspiring suggestion to do our 3 Days of Christmas drinks on Friday just before LWJ&A, because it was a banging idea. This is the result. We discuss Jim’s very A.Ron Thanksgiving, Salty JW’s in our mail bag, rebound headaches, Stephen King’s deep and abiding fear of motor vehicles, Drew Carey and Bob Barker, and honestly God only knows what.
It’s day seven of our Days of Christmas extravaganza! We talk about bad drinking experiences, share some fan artwork and cool stuff, and A.Ron shows how family Christmas pictures can go bad at the claws of a crazed feline. And of course, we grab another pair of bottles down from our tree and deploy another day’s worth of our new Xmas carol.
It’s day eight of our 25 Days of Christmas extravaganza! Today we discuss how disgusting licorice-flavored booze is, where it spawns from and what that town’s name actually means. And of course, we grab another pair of bottles down from our tree and deploy another day’s worth of our new Xmas carol.

It’s days 11, 12 and 13 of our Days of Christmas extravaganza! There’s not much time to sing all this song and drink all this booze while still showing off the cards that have come in so we’re hustling along. Christmas waits for no one.
It’s mostly talk about shit and shit-related practical jokes this week; namely, “Who shit the sink?”. Also, we start out 3-shots deep and keep it going from there. There will be much entertainment.
We’re fourteen days into this Days of Christmas thing, and our tree’s looking a bit booze-bare. Might have to hang some traditional ornaments up, or armed mousetraps, something to spice things up. But, we still got a bunch of fan contributions and verses to sing and bottles to drink extravaganza!
It’s day fifteen of our Days of Christmas thingamajig! Can you believe it?! A.Ron shows of a Star Wars themed gift, and a listener present in the form of fine photography, and we take another slug and sing another verse. See you tomorrow!

It’s days 18, 19 and 20 of our Days of Christmas extravaganza! That means 3 shots and we’re rolling into lunch.

Ho ho ho! It’s the big night! Day 24 of the Days of Christmas finds us with a spooky reading of some fan poetry for American Horror Story, because why not? We also look back at the Ghost of Bald Move past as a fan presents us with a home made “best of” from our old Blue Yonder days. We’ll be back tomorrow with our 25th and final day; in the meantime, better double check your stockings and make sure Santa has his milk and cookies!

Hey everybody. We have had to temporarily take down the ability to sign up new Club members because shady bags of crap were using our system to automatically test tens of thousands of stolen credit cards. This does not affect any Club member, your account wasn't compromised, and none of your card information was stolen, but it cost us a lot of money and we're taking down Club sign ups until we get a fix in place to keep this from happening. We think we'll have that by the weekend. Existing Club members should not be impacted at all, and renewals should process unless your credit card has expired.
