Happy Holidays from Mattie and Austin!
This week in a very merry episode we dig into the background of some holiday traditions and it gets weird.
First Mattie goes into two traditions where you go door to door around Christmas; Wassailing, which is like a combination of a pub crawl and caroling, and Mari Lwyd the Welsh horse skull that challenges you to a rap battle.
Meanwhile, Austin talks about Mistletoe. including the plant's strange biology, why you shouldn't use it in pranks, and how if you have ever been grossed out by people kissing under the mistletoe how much worse it could've been.
And because we can't get enough Christmas this week, check out our blog, where we are watching every Lacey Chabert Christmas movie we can get in a very special event we are calling The 10 Days of Chabertmas!
