In this episode of the Only in OK Show, we discuss our plans for Christmas this year.

We also give a festive review of Ralphie's in downtown Chickasha, located in the historic El Chedos/The Outpost building.

Highlights of this episode include:

  • The 2026 Outlook: Why 2026 is set to be the "Year of the Only in OK Show" and a potential million-dollar milestone.

  • Ralphie's Restaurant Review: A deep dive into the A Christmas Story themed menu.

  • Chickasha Tourism: Insights into the Ralphie's Airbnb and how the town is "on to something" with its holiday transformations.

And most importantly, we want to wish you a very Merry Christmas
