Christmas Hits Different as an Adult
The holiday season feels different as an adult, with its mix of joy, stress, and nostalgia. This year, Jason reflects on his first Christmas since the passing of both his parents and the bittersweet challenge of keeping traditions alive. Emily shares a heartfelt story about how "Dial-a-Carol" became a surprising source of comfort during a time of intense anxiety. Together, we explore how our perspectives on Christmas have evolved, the ways we’ve found meaning through hard seasons, and the small joys that keep the season magical. Plus, we each share our top three favorite Christmas movies and debate what makes them timeless classics. Whether you’re celebrating, grieving, or somewhere in between, this episode offers a heartfelt and festive conversation about the complexities of the holidays—and why they still matter.
