What if asking questions wasn’t disrespect—but remembrance? In this special holiday Reggae Hour episode, Mr. E and Zionya sit down for a deep, respectful reasoning about the traditions that existed before Christmas had a name—long before December 25 appeared on a calendar. This is not an argument. This is not an attack on faith. This is a conversation rooted in history, culture, and consciousness. 🌞 In this episode, we explore: Why ancient civilizations honored light, fire, and rebirth during the darkest season How older traditions were absorbed, renamed, and carried forward Why questioning origins is often confused with disrespect And how understanding history can deepen unity—not divide it 🎶 All guided by a carefully curated reggae Christmas playlist, featuring legends like Shaggy, Jacob Miller, Barrington Levy, John Holt, Toots & the Maytals, Buju Banton, and more—each song intentionally placed to support the reasoning. This episode is for: People who’ve always felt something was missing from the holiday story Listeners who love reggae and truth Anyone who believes unity comes from understanding—not fear If this episode makes you think… If it makes you uncomfortable… If it makes you curious… Then it’s doing exactly what it was meant to do. 🎧 FOLLOW & SUPPORT Subscribe to the Reggae Hour Podcast on all major platforms 🌍 Visit https://www.reggaehour.com for more roots & reality 📺 Watch conscious reggae content on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrDlxcvpVSQ 🔁 SHARE THIS EPISODE with someone who isn’t afraid to reason.
