| 0:17.7 | Well, I created the definitive directory of Christmas podcast to help you along |
| 0:21.7 | your way. It's a list of over 160 Christmas podcasts grouped into 12 different categories, |
| 0:27.6 | and you can find it over at Christmaspast.media or check the show notes to this episode for a link. |
| 0:32.5 | It is the most complete and best organized list of Christmas podcast you will find anywhere else. I guarantee |
