Merry Christmas! The festive season reaches its peak today. And for the tenth year in a row, I'm here on Christmas Day to take a look back. We'll reflect on the news and trends, the sights and sounds that made Christmas of 2025 what it was. 

Plus, a little report from Christmas Past headquarters, and a guest appearance from little Dashiell! 

Wishing all of your a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I'll see you all again in 2026!
