    In Season 12 Episode 0: ‘Christmas Special 2022’ (S12E00), what is the jingle bells playing when Marlon wakes up in Marvin Peter’s house? It’s 48:30 on my copy…it’s a 45rpm vinyl 7″ but I can’t ever really see the label.

    1. hello again! unfortunately, we can’t identify the artist of the song on the vinyl, because we can’t see what’s written on the label either. we’ll keep checking and we’ll update you if we find the label of that vinyl.
