Hey everybody this is still town and this is still town and this is

Danielle town and we're here for the invested podcast just making a short

little podcast here,

the day after Christmas to wish you guys a Merry Christmas

and a happy holiday, a happy Hanukkah,

happy whatever you celebrate. A special edition invested today.

It is.

It is.

And I thought, you know, let's just talk about Christmas just really briefly for a second.

We've all had our, know our family is getting together. We

actually get together in multiple time periods here because we've got family from

Zurich to California and everywhere in between and so I always

want to make sure that time of years we all get together but I thought I just

just for a second ask you what is what is what is sort of the Christmas holiday

mean to you I mean what do you think is what's the point of it all?

What's the point of it all?

Non religiously. I think that well we celebrate Christmas so we're going to talk about Christmas

but we definitely celebrated in the Santa Claus Christmas tree version and I think for me it's our family and it's call me, you know, a little too trite, but it's Christmas cheer. It's the holiday cheer. It's people like being excited and giving gifts and being

Mary and I know that cynical people in my own family think that that's really dumb and I love all of it because it's just

the one time of year when everybody as a culture is remembering to be kind to each other and to give and to say thank you and to wish

each other a happy holiday and I think there's something really beautiful about that time of year.

I think that's exactly year. I think that's exactly right.
