Ben is the voice of Ghost of Christmas Present in the upcoming ‘Scrooge: A Christmas Carol’ podcast by Hope Media Group and Compassion International. The special 4-part series releases Thursday, Nov 16th, and will be available on ScroogePodcast.com.

This 4 episode adaptation of “Scrooge: A Christmas Carol,” by Charles Dickens brings the characters we all know and love to life unlike ever before through a star-studded dramatic audio adaptation in podcast form.

Ebenezer Scrooge, a self-obsessed miserable miser of all things un-merry and un-bright, is everything Christmas isn’t. After he is visited by the spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come, Scrooge transforms into a new man and embodies all the best parts of Christmas.

Through this journey of transformation, listeners will encounter themes of joy, mercy, hope, and more. This new re-telling of the holiday classic will entertain, inspire, and remind you that even the hardest of hearts can find redemption.
