It's that time of year again. I'm talking about time to get back to our terrible holiday

tradition. I'm talking about happy-ish holidays. Yes, it is a podcast episode, but it is also

a live show, a party for anybody who has a complicated relationship with the holiday

or online via live stream, same time, same time, same time, different place because you

Time, get your tickets at happyasholidays.com. We'll also have a link in the show notes.
