Nobody can’t say no to this 30-second portrayal of Scrooge in a Christmastime commercial for Honey Nut Cheerios. Officially titled “Ebenezer Scrooge Discovers Honey Nut Cheerios,” this commercial ran from around 1987 through at least the end of the 20th century.  ****   Guest:  Joey O. (Y-Not Radio, @ImGonnaDJ24).  ****   Topics & Tangents:  1. A tale of two Buzz Bees: “It’s Christmas,” vs. “It’s the holidays.”  2. Arnold Stang, the original voice of the Honey Nut Cheerios Bee, Top Cat, and Nestlé’s Chunky candy bar.  3. Stranger Christmas tradition: Scrooge’s “customary” gruel, or Honey Nut Cheerios as a holiday breakfast?  4. The lifespan and ancestral history of honeybees.  5. Addendum: Thanks to Guy Hutchinson for identifying our Scrooge as actor Bill Gavin.  ****  Full show notes with links at adventcalendar.house.  Say hi on Twitter @adventcalhouse.
