Manage episode 389151093 series 3473822
Sorry about the audio this week. We'll be better next week.
In this holiday season I wanted to bring you some holiday history and legends.

The Yule Lads are not the same lads people knew about hundreds of years ago. They are now seen as Santas of a sort. But they still have some strange things they like to do.
