On this episode, Erik and Stephen sit down with... no one. We actually decided that on this episode we would take the opportunity to kick off the holiday season by discussing all the fun activities for families to do in and around the Belleville Area and reflect on what these events have meant to us over the years and how important it is for everyone to get out and enjoy them since so many things did not occur last year due to the pandemic  In this episode we discuss:

- Belleville Santa Claus Parade

- The Christkindlmarkt 

- The importance of Small Business Saturday

- The Chambers Movie Nights with Santa

- The Holiday Pops performed be the Belleville Philharmonic Society (the 2nd oldest, continuously ran Philharmonic in the country behind Boston)

- The lights and The Shrine and WWT Raceway in Madison
