It's that time of year dear listener! Christmas episoooooooode!!!

For your holiday history fix this year we're telling two tales of different festive traditions that have heavily influenced our annual celebrations...

Join Caesar and Mark Antony as they celebrate Saturnalia, a Roman festival that gave us presents, gambling and drinking whilst wearing silly hats (or a Tuesday at Pear Bear's house) then take a trip to Iceland to meet Gyrla the giant and her Yule lads who are... unusual.

Happy holidays dear listener!

Thanks, as ever, to...

Scott Buckley and his brilliant music

Zapsplat and their awesome zaps, splats and music

Lord Fastfingers for the intro music

And everyone else who has contributed to our silly show this year. We'll be back in 2023! Byeeeeeeee
