Those of a certain age remember those classic C7 incandescent Christmas bulbs and the soft glow they produced. Sure, LEDs are longer lasting and more energy efficient, but they’re just not the same. Michigan artist David Andora is the founder of Tru-Tone, a maker of LED lights that are indistinguishable from the real thing. I recently spoke with David about the company’s unlikely origins, its recent viral success, and a certain music star who was blamed for cleaning out their inventory.
Happy Monday! The elves are so excited to return to Christmas movies. Spooky month is fun, but we’ve officially hit the holiday season! Join the elves as they talk Muppets, the upcoming series The Clauses, A Christmas Story Christmas, and the Addams Family.
It’s time to bask in the glow of the Christmas tree that is no doubt shining brightly in your home already and enjoy this week’s episode.
