Time for another round of holiday leftovers. It’s a short episode, but a fun one: we get to talk about one of the feistiest ladies of early America — and the time she stole the president’s clothes while he was skinny dipping.

In which we stare at our hands, learn what a “Vibraslap” is, and try to explain why cats can now has cheezburgers.

And they went with “Alice”, not “Diamond Voldemort”. Congratulations to Dennis, Jess, Anna, and David, and a hearty welcome to Alice. We wish you the best in your future career as queen president doctor.

We’re going to be trying something different around here for the next few weeks. So while you’re still figuring out what to do with all that turkey in your fridge, enjoy Actually Happening’s “Holiday Leftovers” — favorite questions from our files that we hadn’t gotten to yet, and maybe even some never-before-heard-outtakes. This week we have some fine Egyptian leftovers. Hope you like burnt mummy!

Recapping all the important stuff that happened in this November’s election. And by “important” we mean Biden’s wrong number calls and Big Papi winning the write-in vote for mayor of Boston. Oh yeah, and Philadelphia electing a Whig.

We also have lots of fun shorter episodes coming up this holiday season, so stay tuned!

This week, we cover everything from the beginning of time to “How to Win” to the extremely unoriginal plots of early operas (did they only own one book or something?). And stay ’til the end for what’s likely our longest question answer ever. Trust us, it’s worth it.

In which we finally get to talk about the Great Molasses Flood!

In which we take a shopping trip to the strip mall of history.

This week:

— Bat people on the moon!

— Poorly-considered religious symbols

— Looting Egyptian artifacts, as usual

— America’s first newspaper

And it’s time to renew our pontificating without privity license…

This week’s episode contains a lot of information about bananas. None of the questions were about bananas.

This week: short wars, crowdfunding radioactive substances, and the strange origins of the phrase “Bunga Bunga.”
