I'll be home for Christmas.

The next episode of the commercial break starts now.

Lodd, barely.

Ah, yeah, cats and kittens, welcome back to the 12 days of TCB. I'm Brian Greene. This is the Uncle Eddie Tomiress. Chris and Joy Haudley. Best to you, Chris. Best to you, Brian. And best to you out there in the podcast universe. Here we are, yet again, in the studio, helping you through the holiday season. I don't know how. But there's in some way, shape, or form, I'm sure we're helping you through the holiday season? I don't know how, but there's in some way,

shape, or form, I'm sure we're helping you through the holiday season. Yeah. Well, I mean,

if people donate to our causes, then we're definitely helping. That's for sure. How else are we

helping? I don't know. We're just putting more, we're putting more downloads into the universe

for people to absorb. There you go.

Thanks for joining us.

Chrissy, do you know the origins of the 12 days?

By the way, we just figured out that the 12 days of TCV is actually 13 days of TCB,

since we don't know how to count on a calendar.

So you're getting an extra episode.

We'll actually be doing 13 days.

Halfway through the 12 days of Christmas,

we realize that it's 13 days of TCB. Do you know the origins of the song 12 days of Christmas?

No, I don't think that I do. I don't think I do either. Let's learn together. Let's get learned.

The best known English version was printed in the mirth without mischief,

a children's book published in London in the 1780s.

Something about the northern castle of Newcastle and the Tyne and the partridge and the pear tree and all that other stuff.

But here's the more important question.

Can you name the 12 days of Christmas?
