The holidays are always a magical time, though far more so than you might imagine. Explore the festival of Jól, the myths of the Poetic Edda, Roman Saturnalia, and how paganism and Christianity intermingled to produce the holidays we celebrate today. Discover why some of us stick evergreen trees in our home once a year, and why drinking four gallons of mead will prove you’re having a good time. Plus, find out about that one time America outlawed Christmas.
