Hey everybody, it is Dylan. I am home here in Rosendale, New York with my family, and

it is coming up on Christmas. We got the tree up and we are currently cutting some snowflakes

at a coffee filters to help decorate the windows and give the house that little extra bit of

holiday cheer. So tonight we are drinking hot chocolate. There is about a billion tiny bits

of paper sprinkled all over the place, like so much fresh fallen snow, and the snowflakes

are looking good. That's nice. That's a good one, fan. What do you think? Do you like it?

You're ready to have a big fall in the middle. So big. Anyway, for the next couple of weeks,

the Outlet Subscrier team is going to be out of office celebrating the holidays with

our families. We will be sharing some of our all-time favorite episodes of the show during

that period. But today, we wanted to share something else. You know that the scene in the

Christmas movie where someone is walking down like a beautiful snowy street and they are

stopping and peering in the cozy windows and looking at the families having their nice moments.

Well, this is kind of like that. We want to invite you in to join in some of our holiday

moments. Please come and join us. Grab a cup of tea, hot chocolate, eggnog, hot cider,

spice wine, whatever whatever your warm and cozy drink is, and come join the Outlet

Subscrier team in a little bit of holiday cheer.

This is John DeLore, one of the editors on the podcast. I am upstate. Just had a really lovely

Thanksgiving with some friends who have a place up here. Catskills area of New York State.

This morning, we went to the diner in town. I haven't been to a small town diner in a long time.

I haven't been to a diner in a long time. That was lovely. I got a little sound there. Let's

try a little bit of that. Snow is falling outside. Coffee is terrible.

But then this, I think, is actually the sound of the holidays for me. It's snowed up here.
