For Christmas 2025, Feliks Banel presents a BONUS EPISODE from the archives: a special Christmas 2022 broadcast of CASCADE OF HISTORY, drawing on the archives of “The Holiday Express,” a live Christmas Eve show he produced and hosted live on Christmas Eve on KBCS 91.3 FM in Bellevue, Washington from 1999 to 2004.

Highlights include beloved kids' KIRO TV show host J.P. Patches reading “The Night Before Christmas,” and a 2002 recording of Seattle Mariners’ broadcasters Rick Rizzs and the late Dave Niehaus reading O. Henry's “Gift of the Magi” and splitting the duties as if it were an inning of baseball – plus plenty of vintage and local audio surprises!

CASCADE OF HISTORY is broadcast LIVE most Sunday nights at 8pm Pacific Time via flagship station SPACE 101.1 FM in Seattle and gallantly streams everywhere via www.space101fm.org. The radio station broadcasts from studios at historic Magnuson Park – located in the former Master-at-Arms’ quarters in the old Sand Point Naval Air Station - on the shores of Lake Washington in Seattle.
