Summary
It's the most ogre-ful time of the year here at Very Amusing!
That's right: Shrekcember has OFFICIALLY arrived, and our month-long celebration of the arguably canonically Jewish SHREK is kicking off its 31-day festivities with a dive into the world of SHREKBOX. What began as a Philly newspaper box full of Shrek memorabilia and artwork has become a national phenomenon — and a religious destination?! Hear all about the creative portal to Shrek-y wonder on this week's Shrektastic episode. From their swamp to yours, happy Shrekcember!
NOTE:
I say the word "mailbox" instead of "newspaper box" prior to the interview, my apologies! (I blame recent travels for my brain fart!)

| 0:09.6 | Hello! And welcome to Vary Em music, your one-stop shop for the stories, secrets, and |
| 0:17.3 | Shrek, Semvers, and Anagins of a popcorn-fueled theme park journalist. I'm Carly Beizel, |
| 0:22.9 | and I just got back from Paris. I'm talking just got back, dropped my bags, |
| 0:28.6 | opened the door to my office and started recording this. And I'm I'm still with it, like my brain is still, |
| 0:35.3 | I've switched over to California time on the plane, which is a thing I do do with my jet lag, |
| 0:39.6 | and it works brilliantly. But I also just arrived home and shot an entire King-Sci's candy bar |
| 0:45.2 | into my mouth, eating a Cadbury double-decker duo. I don't know what it was, it was like chocolate |
| 0:51.4 | nougat and little hazelnut bits, but I picked it up on our our single-day journey to London. We |
| 0:56.2 | crammed a little trip to London in our Thanksgiving visit to Paris, and it was wonderful. I had a great |
| 1:01.1 | time. I went to Disneyland Paris for a few hours. I saw their Christmas parade, which I know I've |
| 1:06.3 | yelled about on Instagram and on Twitter a bunch already this past week, but their Christmas parade |
| 1:11.5 | was incredible. I will be writing about it, so don't even worry, it'll probably be my sci-fi column, |
| 1:16.2 | but oh my god, this Christmas parade was bonkers. I ran into Denise from mouthsteps who basically |
| 1:23.2 | summoned me to the hub at Disneyland Paris. She was like, you gotta watch the parade from here. |
| 1:29.6 | And Denise knows enough about the Shutter Denise. Denise knows enough about Disneyland Paris to |
| 1:34.2 | essentially kind of be a local, and she told me exactly where to stand, exactly where to see |
| 1:38.2 | everything, and I got to see Goofy dance up close in front of the most beautiful Disney castle it |
| 1:42.1 | exists. It was heaven. It was heaven, and I highly recommend traveling over Thanksgiving break if |
| 1:48.0 | your family lets you, because we looked around and there weren't any solid plans and we booked |
| 1:52.4 | plane tickets and we were gone. So sorry mom, but yeah it was, it was dope. It was great. Anyway, |
| 2:01.0 | Foreflung Travels aside, we've made it, we've made it to the second ever installation of Shrek |
