Put on your favourite ugly Christmas sweater, grab a glass of mulled wine, and join us for this year's festive DreamPod episode! On this one we are joined by our pal Patrick Traynor of the awesome Sega Saturn, SHIRO! to talk all about Dreamcast Christmas memories and traditions. We also share your excellent submissions for our request to send in Dreamcast-themed crackers, carols and stories... all topped off with one of James' 20 Questions quizzes!

See all the listener submissions, including Uncle Clutch's Watercolour crackers, on this post by Lozz on the blog: https://www.thedreamcastjunkyard.co.uk/2023/12/dreamcastic-christmas-2023-heart.html
