Summary

Frairien (played by Greg Webb) comes back to What If World with a plan to dominate everyone. All he needs is a cute and fluffy cat. Maybe Snowflake from The Purple Rocket podcast will help in this crossover episode.

Lessons include: The holidays are a chance to bring joy and light into other people's lives, not just your own; we can spend time with our friends even if we don’t celebrate the same holiday.

This episode is sponsored in part by Wondery’s Little Stories Everywhere. Little Stories Everywhere is out now, premiering with A Merry Christmas, a collection of holiday tales by Louisa May Alcott that truly embody the holiday spirit, no matter what you celebrate.
