It's that time of year again. Svein and Tom sit down in their respective palatial estates to ruminate on the meaning of the holiday season, to discuss the year that was, the year that may yet be and the years that may not be what was once again. Or something like that. Tom and Svein also select five bands each they discovered through their love of Big Country. Sometimes the connections are obvious, sometimes tenuous, but perhaps you'll find some new music to check out or despise eternally. We also share some truly awesome SpeakPipes from listeners and review listener questions. Happy Joyous Yule Logs to all!
