Christmas in the USA today is not Christmas without New York City. The Macy’s Parade on Thanksgiving, the giant tree in Rockefeller Center, the Rockettes, etc. But how did NYC become the Christmas Capital for the U.S. - and even the English-speaking world? Does it even make sense? We invite 3, life-long New Yorkers to discuss. 2 are not even Christian. These are terrific friends of this pod, the METS MOB, famous from other podcasts. And we get a baseball update on the Max Scherzer signing and the player lockout by owners. We also feature a very funny cold open that you won’t want to miss! If you don’t care for baseball, swish to 23:18 to get right to the Christmas stuff after the open.
