It's been a long, hot summer, but we're back just in time for Christmas in July! We've been playing the heck out of Nintendo's new Donkey Kong Bananza game, so we thought we'd take a look at the Christmas episode of the Donkey Kong Country TV series! "The Kongo Bongo Festival of Lights" has everything you could want out of a holiday-themed cartoon episode: A holiday-themed light display, a wacky O. Henry-esque gift-giving mishap, two warring factions coming together in the name of peace, and even a festive song or two! So yes, we're talking all about Donkey Kong this episode. The first half of this episode covers the Donkey Kong TV show (and also Avatar: The Way of Water, for some reason). The second half is when we pull the ripcord and just gush about Donkey Kong Bananza. Strap yourselves in, kiddos! Questions/Comments?

Celebrating Hanukkah  Part 4:  The Festival of Lights and The Miracle of The Oil  -  English only.  Why is Hanukkah called the Festival of Lights? An ancient legend describes how the Maccabees only had enough oil to light the Temple menorah for one night. Yet, after they lit the lamps, the flames continued to burn for eight nights.  Do we have evidence that this legend is true?  If not, why do we still call this the Festival of Lights? Join us as we explore the history of this celebration! This is a rebroadcast of a December 12, 2022 podcast. This year, 2024, The Feast of Hanukkah begins at sunset on Wednesday, December 25th, and ends at sunset on Thursday, January 2nd, 2025.
