Apologies about the sound quality on this episode, my voice sounds canned almost. I wasn’t able to fix it in this episode but will for Part 3 of this series!
In today’s episode we explore the history of snowmen in art, politics, and expression. We also briefly touch on the Yeti, shallowly diving in to the origins and history. Lastly, we conclude with Part 2 of our Lost Years of Santa Claus story. I hope you enjoy!

Happy August, Christmas Fanatics! We’re one month closer to our favorite time of year and the elves couldn’t be more excited!
To kick off the last stretch of summer before the Ber Months (!!!), Anthony, Julia, and Thom are joined by Gerry D of “Totally Rad Christmas” for another double feature of an episode in which we cover the Christmas episodes of HBO’s critically acclaimed comedy series “Curb Your Enthusiasm” (Season 3, Episode 9, “Mary, Joseph, and Larry”) and TruTV’s hit-comedy “I’m Sorry” (Season 2, Episode 4, “Couple’s Massage”). As you can imagine from the shows discussed, this episode is definitely not be the most appropriate one for tiny ears – no matter how much we attempt to tiptoe around certain subject matter – so do your best to keep yourself on the nice list and listen away from any children who might be around! Enjoy, y’all!.
