’Tis the Season: A Brief Look at Christmas

Fa la la la laughs! This week we broadly discuss some of the origins of Christmas like Christmas Trees, St. Nicholas, and how everything is actually pagan in one way or another. Sprinkled in are little surprises like a much loved Vine, female rights, and much more! So brace yourselves -- its time to get Modern Medieval!
