Holiday Episodes from The Past (and the Curious)

Looking for some fun holiday listening? Take a stroll down memory lane with our last 4 December episodes. Pickles, Mummies, Bladders. What more could you want?

Our 2020 Holiday-themed episode featuring the origin stories of more toys! Roller Skates, Magic Kits, the Erector Set, and more!
From 2019: L. Frank Baum, an author of a classic book (which became a classic movie) was also partially responsible for our love of fancy holiday shop windows. 
Also, Meriwether Lewis gives his pal William Clark a re-gift he probably could’ve done without.
From 2018: We’re digging through the inductees of the Toy Hall of Fame to find great stories that span Abraham Lincoln to Frank Lloyd Wright and beyond. 
Learn the stories of Milton Bradley’s Game of Life (with a bit of Lincoln’s beard, the Wright family of architects’ creation, Lincoln Logs and so much more.
Featuring the many talents of Brigid Kaelin! www.brigidkaelin.com
From 2017: Christmastime means two things to us: mummies and bladders.
Join us as we meet a young William Clark, an accidental and enterprising watch salesman named Sears, and the hottest gift of the 1971 holiday season.
Featuring “Kashmir of the Bells” by Squeeze-bot
From 2016: In this quick Holiday Short (which was one of the earliest things we released so keep that in mind!), we explore a few of the stories people offer as explanations for the unusual Christmas Pickle Tradition. 
We also found a Christmas Pickle recipe you probably won’t want to try, and you’ll love our 2016 Holiday gift pick.
And if that isn’t enough, we also have an unusual interpretation of a holiday classic song by Squeeze-bot (probably the best Accordion, Banjo Tuba and Tiny Drum band in the world).
