Transcript:Ca: Lluïa el sol d'hivern sobre el mercat brillant, on les llums nadalencs reprimien el fred amb el seu caliu daurat.En: The winter sun shone over the mercat glittering, where the Christmas lights held back the cold with their golden warmth.Ca: Les olors de les castanyes torrades omplien l'aire mentre la gent passejava animada, comprant regals per al Dia de Reis.En: The smells of roasted chestnuts filled the air as people strolled cheerfully, buying gifts for Dia de Reis.Ca: Lluís, amb la seva cara afable i una mica despistat, es movia entre les parades amb pressa.En: Lluís, with his affable and somewhat absent-minded face, moved hurriedly among the stalls.Ca: Portava una bossa petita amb un regal que havia comprat per a Montserrat: un suèter càlid, però tristament, la talla equivocada.En: He carried a small bag with a gift he had bought for Montserrat: a warm sweater, but sadly, the wrong size.Ca: Sabia que Montserrat voltava per allà, buscant regals també, i preferia evitar que la trobés abans de poder canviar el suèter.En: He knew Montserrat was around, also looking for gifts, and he preferred to avoid being found by her before he could exchange the sweater.Ca: Tenia por que veiés el regal equivocat i es desil·lusionés.En: He was afraid she would see the wrong gift and be disappointed.Ca: Enmig de la multitud, Lluís va veure un posat de barrets i, sense pensar-ho dues vegades, va agafar un barret de Pare Noel per posar-se'l com a disfressa improvisada.En: In the midst of the crowd, Lluís saw a stall selling hats, and without thinking twice, he grabbed a Santa hat to disguise himself.Ca: —Potser així no em reconeixerà —es va dir, satisfet amb el seu enginy.En: "Maybe this way she won't recognize me," he said to himself, satisfied with his cleverness.Ca: El mercat, ple de colors i veus, semblava un laberint sense fi.En: The mercat, full of colors and voices, seemed like a never-ending labyrinth.Ca: Els nens corrien emocionats, i els pares carregaven bosses de regals.En: Children ran excitedly, and parents carried bags of gifts.Ca: Lluís va trobar la botiga on havia comprat el suèter i va entrar decidit a fer l'intercanvi abans que fos massa tard.En: Lluís found the store where he had bought the sweater and entered determined to make the exchange before it was too late.Ca: Amb el regal corregit sota el braç, Lluís va intentar sortir de la botiga amb discreció, però el seu pla va tenir un gir inesperat.En: With the corrected gift under his arm, Lluís tried to leave the store discreetly, but his plan took an unexpected turn.Ca: De sobte, va topar directament amb Montserrat.En: Suddenly, he bumped directly into Montserrat.Ca: La bossa li va caure, i el suèter corregit va sortir rodant pel terra.En: The bag fell, and the corrected sweater rolled across the floor.Ca: —Lluís!En: "Lluís!"Ca: —va dir Montserrat rient quan va veure'l amb el barret ridícul de Pare Noel—.En: Montserrat said, laughing when she saw him with the ridiculous Santa hat.Ca: Què fas així vestit?En: "What are you doing dressed like that?"Ca: Lluís, una mica avergonyit, va intentar explicar-s'ho entre rialles.En: Lluís, a little embarrassed, tried to explain himself amid laughter.Ca: Montserrat va començar a riure encara més quan va descobrir el suèter.En: Montserrat began to laugh even more when she discovered the sweater.Ca: —Volia assegurar-me que el dia de Reis fos perfecte per tu —va admetre Lluís, encara amb el somriure sota el barret.En: "I wanted to make sure Dia de Reis was perfect for you," Lluís admitted, still smiling under the hat.Ca: Montserrat no podia parar les rialles.En: Montserrat couldn't stop laughing.Ca: Li va ensenyar una bossa que portava ella mateixa.En: She showed a bag she was carrying herself.Ca: —Sabies que a mi també m'han donat la mida errònia per a tu?En: "Did you know they also gave me the wrong size for you?Ca: Sembla que tots dos podem aprendre a riure dels nostres errors.En: It seems we both can learn to laugh at our mistakes."Ca: Es van mirar, compresos i alleujats.En: They looked at each other, understanding and relieved.Ca: Els errors havien conduït a un moment inesperat i ple de significat, i això els va omplir de calidesa.En: The mistakes had led to an unexpected and meaningful moment, and it filled them with warmth.Ca: Al capdavall, eren l'esforç i l'afecte allò que més importaven.En: After all, it was the effort and affection that mattered most.Ca: Amb el sol ponent-se sobre les llums del mercat, Lluís i Montserrat van caminar junts, compartint les seves històries i rient dels seus errors.En: With the sun setting over the lights of the mercat, Lluís and Montserrat walked together, sharing their stories and laughing at their mistakes.Ca: Aprengueren que les experiències, fins i tot amb errors, poden ser bellíssimes si són compartides amb un amic sincer.En: They learned that experiences, even with errors, can be beautiful if shared with a true friend.

Christmas is over but we're still technically in Yuletide territory so we decided to do something a little different this year to acknowledge the festivities before they slip away from us for another year. We like folklore. We like weird creatures. We like traditions and rituals that make no sense to us because they're not part of our time period or culture. If you like those things too, we hope you'll join us as we indulge in a hilarious exploration of some of the legendary and iconic characters behind Yule folklore. Hide your children and your sheep, tidy up your house, get some new clothes, grab your colander for home defense, and let's go!If you're enjoying the podcast we'd love it if you could help us spread the word by telling your friends, subscribing to the podcast, and leaving a rating or review. If you'd like to support us on Patreon we are at www.patreon.com/differentfunctional Thanks so much for listening and remember, different does not mean defective.

I hope you had a Merry Christmas and I I wish you love, joy, and abudance this coming 2026!
The Twelve Days of Christmas were never meant to be rushed—or gentle.In this episode of Tales from Cranewitch Hollow, we peel back the bright wrapping paper to reveal the older, stranger roots of the Twelve Days: a liminal stretch of winter when the rules bent, the dead drew close, and the world stood briefly upside down.We explore Twelfth Night traditions, misrule and role reversal, divination rituals, wandering spirits, and the symbolism hidden in the song's increasingly strange gifts. From wassailing orchards and masking traditions to omens, offerings, and animals that carried meaning between worlds, these nights were believed to be ripe with danger—and possibility.This is not a lesson in holiday trivia.It is an exploration of winter as it once was: dark, sacred, and alive with magic.

Charles Dickens didn't invent the Christmas ghost story — he was continuing a tradition that stretched back centuries. These true tales of holiday hauntings show why the longest nights of winter were once considered the most dangerous.IN THIS EPISODE: Before Halloween claimed the spooky spotlight, Christmas Eve was once the traditional time for telling ghost stories - a centuries-old custom that gave us Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" and brought families together around crackling fires to share spine-tingling tales on long winter nights. Tonight I continue my efforts to bring back this tradition with some ghost stories and hauntings that took place during the Yuletide season… and every single ghost story is absolutely true.SOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM THE EPISODE…Photo of the Berthelot ghost: https://weirddarkness.com/TrueChristmasGhostStories“A Christmas Carol” narrated by Darren Marlar: https://weirddarkness.com/?s=%22A+Christmas+Carol%22More holiday horror stories from Weird Darkness: https://weirddarkness.com/?s=%23holidayhorrorsMost stories were gathered from the book, “30 Real Christmas Ghost Stories” by MJ Wayland: https://amzn.to/41QrPBjWeird Darkness theme by Alibi Music Library. = = = = =(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

Dean Karayanis — New York Sun columnist, host of the History Author Show, and former Rush Limbaugh staffer — brings the Yuletide cheer for Derek. A story in Politico alleging that the "How the far right stole Christmas" prompts a discussion of the birth of Jesus Christ being turned into a generic, secular holiday. Plus, what happened to the little girl who wrote letter that led to the most reprinted editorial in the English language, 1897's "Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus," in the New York Sun. The stories of "It's a Wonderful Life," "A Charlie Brown Christmas," and of Luxembourg's "American St. Nick" from a tradition begun by GI's in the middle of World War 2. Dean also notes that Christmas marked the 101st birthday of Rod Serling, who's enduring gift is The Twilight Zone's "Night of the Meek," starring Art Carney as a Skid Row Santa Claus.

We are shaking things up in 2026--Make sure to JOIN US for ALL the content coming - https://join.unrefinedpodcast.comEvery December, it feels like the internet dusts off the same “Christmas is pagan” memes and lobs them into everyone's feeds, and honestly… I'm over it. In this conversation, I sit down with Lindsy and our guest co-navigator Jennifer to ask where these claims actually came from and whether they hold up to real history. We talk about early church evidence for celebrating Jesus' birth in December, why conception dates mattered in the ancient world, and how sacred time belongs to God—not Saturn, Mithras, or Yuletide spirits. We also unravel Alexander Hislop's The Two Babylons, Nimrod conspiracies, green man imagery, and the fear that you might be “accidentally” worshiping other gods by putting up a tree. Along the way, we hit on mission, sacred space, and why intent matters more than internet paranoia. If you've ever wondered whether you're allowed to enjoy Christmas without guilt, this one's for you with Dr. Judd Burton.https://www.burtonbeyond.net/https://drjuddburton.com/https://join.unrefinedpodcast.com

Tread Perilously's final 2025 episode is, oddly enough, a Tread Merrily. But that also means Special Review Unit Captain Charlie Wright is joining Erik and Justin for an episode of the 1980s Beauty and the Beast called "God Bless The Child." When Catherine volunteers at a crisis hotline, she encounters a young woman who is both pregnant and on her last rope. Catherine suggests to Father and Vincent that the woman might be a good addition to the World Below. After passing Father's test, though, she becomes fixated on Vincent and makes the Yuletide both stranger and sleepier than it should be. Erik learns Charlie has seen the show before. Justin tries to piece together its premise, forgetting that Vincent and Catherine have a bond "beyond friendship or love." Erik finally gets to use his Roy Dotrice impression and attempts one of Vincent to wavering success. Linda Hamilton and Ron Perlman prove to be MVPs. The trio discovers the New York district of Los Angeles. The World Below is a provocative enough concept to encourage another reboot of the program. Will "escaped circus people" be involved? Charlie proves immune to Vincent's many charms. George R. R. Martin's presence can be felt throughout. The episode's major guest character becomes a Tully as a consequence and the CBS pacing issue claims another series.

Yuletide, I'll tide, we'll all tide, for yuletide. That's the Regular Features promise to you, on this, the most Jesus day of the Formula 1 race calendar. On this day in 1952, our lord and saviour got born out of a forgotten easter egg in Bethlehem. And lo did he look upon his flock and say "humpdaaaaay". And when they did say to Jesus, "lord, humpday was yesterday", Christ did say unto them, "humpdaaaaaay" and "ready for the weekeeeeeend". In this one: Steve's kringling, Joe's spilling secrets, and Matt kinkshames the messiah.

Send us a textThe holidays are supposed to be warm, joyful, and bright… So why are so many legends filled with monsters, strange creatures, and things that go bump in the winter night?In this remastered holiday special, Generation X Paranormal revisits our conversation with Rissa Miller for a deep dive into holiday cryptids, winter folklore, and seasonal legends from around the world.From ancient traditions to modern sightings, we explore:The origins of holiday and winter-themed cryptidsWhy fear and folklore peak during the darkest months of the yearHow old legends still influence modern paranormal experiencesThe fine line between myth, memory, and something unexplainedThis episode isn't about jump scares — it's about why these stories exist, why they endure, and what they say about us as humans navigating the unknown during the most emotionally charged time of year.Whether you're listening by the glow of holiday lights or hiding from relatives in another room, this remastered episode is the perfect blend of folklore, mystery, and thoughtful conversation.
We're trying something different this time: a live meditation selected from last New Year's Day to help you access your inner stillness and wisdom so you can connect with what's most important to you. You will discover: A simple but powerful visualization for releasing old energy from the year behind you, without needing to analyze or fix it A felt sense of your "inner fire": what fuels you, what drains you, and what needs tending before external goals can come to life A symbolic journey that clarifies one lantern you're ready to light this year—whether that's a project, a quality of being, or a long-held creative impulse Insight into how inner abundance precedes outer impact, and why sustainable creation starts with care, permission, and presence A closing reflection that invites gratitude, support, and spaciousness rather than pressure or self-judgment Join Erin for this Yuletide meditation to prepare for a truly successful year ahead!

Send us a textBefore penning the lyrics to “America the Beautiful,” Katharine Lee Bates shone a spotlight on the invisible (and not so invisible) labor tackled by an unsung Christmas heroine, Mrs. Claus. Bates's 1888 poem “Goody Claus on a Sleigh Ride” imagines Santa's spouse setting the record straight about who really does most of the work in preparation for Christmas. In this holiday episode, Amy confesses her own cynical feelings about the Yuletide season and reads this humorous poem with its surprisingly satirical and feminist bent. Listeners who tune in will also receive a special “Lost Ladies of Lit” holiday freebie!Mentioned in this episode:“Goody Claus on a Sleigh Ride” by Katharine Lee BatesLost Ladies of Lit Episode No. 237 on Katharine Lee BatesSupport the showFor episodes and show notes, visit: LostLadiesofLit.comSubscribe to our substack newsletter.

Pull up a chair, witches, and settle into the Solarium, that warm, herb scented pause between the dark and the returning light, where herb scented smoke and the laughter of friends keeps the night at bay.In this special Yule season Solarium episode of Back on the Broomstick, Laylla and Chelle invite you into a cozy, candlelit ghost tale swap that leans deliciously into the strange and unsettling side of winter magic. The scary ghost stories side of the sugar plum season. Laylla shares four chilling haunted doll stories. As she researched and recorded these stories, some truly odd coincidences began stacking up. Tech glitches, recording problems, and even something a little more personal.... decide for yourself whether it was coincidence or something else.Chelle then takes us deep into winter folklore with the dark and fascinating tale of Frau Perchta, a Yuletide spirit who walks the long nights judging the living, rewarding the diligent, and punishing those who stray too far from the old ways. Equal parts cautionary tale and seasonal myth, her story reminds us that Yule magic isn't all twinkle lights and cocoa. Sometimes it stuffs you with stones and straw if you don't do your chores.This Solarium episode is spooky, fun, and perfect for listening by firelight or under a heavy blanket while the wind rattles the bones of winter outside. Pour yourself something warm, maybe cast a circle for comfort, and join us for ghost stories that linger long after the candles burn low.Listener discretion and copious comfort items advised. And maybe don't leave your dolls uncovered tonight.Got a question? Send the witches a message here!Support the showWant to send us a letter?

In this festive edition of Disorder, our hosts Jason Pack, Jane Kinninmont and Mark Lobel reflect on a Disorderly 2025, and preview what could be an even more Disorderly 2026. They gather around the Yuletide fire and shoot the breeze, then discuss personal Christmas traditions, the biggest moments of Disorder throughout the year, while also pointing to some moments of hope that emerged. As they Ordered the Disorder, they highlight the need for leadership and Jason returns to his desire for a collective grass roots ordering movement pushing for towards a better future, and why human connection will help us find Order in the new year. The show closes with some beautiful cantorial music giving us some hope for the New Year, while also reflecting our sorrow over what has happened in Sydney.

Hey, Neighbor, do you have any idea what Yuletide is? Never mind... Luke has been tinkering with John's new (used) car. Isn't it GREAT to have family members who can help you with skills you don't have yourself?! THEN: Showing John's video might have gotten a teacher fired... Kids need to be taught not to overreact and how to hold their bodies in a less-awkward way when they're on stage. (We list several other odd human behaviors, which maybe aren't so odd after all...) LATER: Some people don't have family because they have purposefully cut ties with everyone. We talk about why that's sad. Teach your kids to stay connected with their family! Emails us at nextdoor@johnbranyan.com to tell us what "odd" thing you do.

Send us a textIn this Yuletide episode of the Magick Kitchen Podcast, Leandra Witchwood and Elyse Welles are joined by fiber artist and co-host of the Knit a Spell podcast, Katie Rempe, for a deep and soulful conversation about fiber magic, stitch witchery, and ancestral craft.Together they explore knitting, embroidery, mending, sewing, spinning, and textile arts as ancient magical practices — ways of weaving intention, prayer, and protection directly into everyday life. From blood, sweat, and tears stitched into garments, to repetitive motion as meditation, to crafting as a gateway for intuition and ancestral connection, this episode invites listeners to remember the sacred power held in thread and cloth.The conversation weaves through grief and healing, pandemic-era crafting, reclaiming lost communal arts, ethical making, and how working with fiber can become both spellwork and spiritual refuge. Whether you knit daily or have never picked up a needle, this episode offers a gentle invitation to slow down, listen to your hands, and reconnect with the magic humans have practiced for millennia.The Rebel Mystic Coven is my heart-crafted teaching circle in South-Central Pennsylvania—a sanctuary where curiosity meets mystery and seekers kindle their inner fire. As an Eclectic Coven, we explore a variety of topics and areas of study to help build our awareness, deepen our practices, and develop understanding. A short, spoken invitation calling women who feel the Dark Goddess stirring to step into embodied power through a nine week initiatory journey with ancient goddesses.

Multimedia artist, candle-maker, dancer, and sorceress Sarah Jezebel Wood joins the pod for a special solstice episode on the yuletide season. Sarah beautifully outlines some of the key motifs of the death and rebirth of the sun's light and the spirits, oaths, and magical practices that accompany it. Drawing on her extensive knowledge of Finnish folklore, she introduces us to the mischievous world of the tonttu and nisse, as well as even more varied forms of ancestral spirits of house, home, hearth, and sauna, and opens the floor to a rich cross-cultural discussion of land pacts, ambient dead, and negotiations within multivalent spiritual communities.

It was Christmastime — a season of peace, light, and goodwill — which made the slow unraveling of their minds all the more disturbing.IN THIS EPISODE: Despite being in the middle of the first World War, on Christmas Day, 1914 British and German soldiers sang carols together, exchanged gifts with the enemy combatants, and supposedly even played a soccer game against each other in order to celebrate the holiday. (The Great War's Christmas Truce) *** The case was so mysterious it was even featured on TV's “Unsolved Mysteries” and “America's Most Wanted”: who committed the Christmas murder of Latricia White? And what happened to Lee and Chance Wackerhagen? (An Unsolved Christmas Murder Mystery) *** We're so used to seeing old St. Nick showing up with a big bag of toys for the kiddies – but what if he arrived with another bag full of switches for your parents to use the whole year through if you were on his naughty list? We'll look back at when Santa wasn't purely jolly and jovial, and when he arrived to dole out both presents and punishment! (Santa's Naughty List) *** The Los Feliz murder mansion became the site of a horrifying and sad Christmas tragedy for one California family. (Christmas At The Los Feliz Murder Mansion) *** A haunting holiday mystery took place in England in 1916 when a young bride simply disappeared without a trace. (The Vanishing Christmas Bride) *** A man tries to take on supernatural forces – and ends up as an undead creature who appears as a terrifying Yuletide spirit.
