Holiday Traditions

Semi-Intellectual Musings

We all celebrate the holiday season differently. That’s a good thing. On this episode Matt & Phil share their holiday traditions. From savory meat pies, to sugary cookies, to cups filled with rum and eggnog, they show how good food and good people make the holidays a special time of the year. During the second half of the show, Phil connects with friends of the podcast to talk about their holiday traditions. We wish everyone a safe and happy holiday season.

We thank Alex Diskin for kindly allowing us to play three of his songs: Heist, Outlaw, and A.A.A. Make sure to check out Alex’s music and if you’re in the central New York, USA area why not book him for a gig? We tried to think of a more perfect way to host a party over the holidays and, quite frankly, couldn’t. Get Alex playing guitar and signing and you’ll be entertained for hours. Then get him to tell zombies stories. He does that really well too.

Concluding thought: I find that it's the simple things that remind you of family around the holidays ― Amy Adams ------------------------- Follow #PodernFamily #Podmosphere and #2PodsADay on Twitter and Facebook for the best in indie podcasts.
