Tom Fudge:
If you’re a fan of Christmas Movies you know about the comedy called A Christmas Story. It’s the story of Ralphie, a kid growing up in the 1940s in the industrial Midwest. He yearns for Red Rider BB gun for Christmas. Yet everyone tells him he can’t have one because he’ll put an eye out.
San Diegan Brian Jones may be the world’s biggest fan of A Christmas Story. He has made a business of manufacturing the Leg Lamp, seen in the movie. And recently he bought the house, in Cleveland, that was used in the movie. And he’s turned it into a tourist attraction.
Guest
- Brian Jones, owner and operator of "A Christmas Story House."
