Hello and welcome to the history fun where we explore the hidden back stories of the things you love.

My name is Russ Frustick and today I am joined by Christopher Plant.

Hello.

Chris Plant is here.

And also Allegra Frank, our expert today.

Allegra has brought something very exciting and very thematic and very appropriate for our

holiday season.

What you brought us?

I brought us the wonderful gift of my personal favorite holiday.

I'm going to start off with that.

I'm a big fan of this holiday.

Interesting.

St. Patrick's Jake.

Got it, got it.

Interesting.

Okay.

I have a feeling we're going to fight this episode, and I'm excited for that, and I'm armed and ready.

But this is the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade episode.

We're going to learn a little bit about the history of the best spectacle of any holiday, in my opinion.

And you guys know that I am generally, I can go either way on the fun things.

But this is something I am a huge fan of, personally.

You make an interesting point because there are not very many holidays that have guaranteed spectacle.
