🎄✈️ Santa On Radar, Secret Missions In The Shadows: Holiday Ops & Cold War Wonders!

Here’s a festive-to-classified mashup for your latest Late For Changeover soirée:
Jingle bells meet jet engines as Santa lights up the NORAD radar screen for the 70th year, proving even Saint Nick needs aerospace surveillance (07:25). A Coast Guard chopper in Puerto Rico spirals into a merry “Ho Ho Ho” holding pattern, cheerleading holiday spirits over warm Caribbean waves (14:42).
Then the sleigh suddenly dives into the classified archives. The Alsos Mission of 1943 hunted Nazi nuclear secrets like a Christmas scavenger hunt in occupied Europe (26:56). Project Pluto’s atomic-powered SLAM missile promised a doomsday stocking stuffer capable of circling the globe with apocalyptic endurance (34:33). And over the stormy skies of Vietnam, Operation Popeye tried to weaponize the weather itself, coaxing rain to bog down enemy supply lines (41:08).
From candy canes on radar scopes to Cold War nightmare tech, this episode unwraps the strange stocking where holiday cheer and military history keep bumping elbows like elves undercover in a classified hangar. 🎅🛰️✨
