In this episode of the Yuletide Chronicles podcast, we take a look at how Santa Claus has changed over the years, from the 4th-century Saint Nicholas to the jolly, red-suited icon we know today. His image has been shaped by literature, art, and pop culture, including Thomas Nast’s 19th-century illustrations and Haddon Sundblom’s Coca-Cola ads from the 1930s. Join us as we talk about Santa’s evolution and the lasting impact of his festive look.
