Today I bring you the last episode of the 2023 podcast. A podcast that takes a lot of time and effort, but gives me a lot of cheerfulness. Some of you have met me because of the podcast, others have told me how much you like it..... So I will continue next year, even if I win "El Gordo" tomorrow 😂.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, here's an episode from last season where I explained that "El Gordo" is what the Spanish call the Christmas lottery.

It always takes place on the 22nd of December and marks the beginning of the Christmas season.

It is one tradition in Spain, but there are many more. Like the 12 grapes, the "roscón" for the three kings, or some figures very similar to Santa Claus, but much older, that you can find in some areas of northern Spain.

Today I talk about them in the new episode of the podcast.
