It's the holiday season and we are decking the halls with all manor of inappropriate and strange holiday traditions. What were our ancestors thinking?! Nydia shares some of the strangest traditions and foods from around the world and Dana shares some misconceptions surrounding Hanukkah. We also discuss a mass church poisoning, a shady trip to Jamaica, some stories from Jewish folklore, and THAT BITCH. For dinner we have crispy duck (goose's cheaper, easier to find cousin) and maple bacon brussel sprouts. For dessert Dana attempts to connect to her roots with Hamantaschen. We also share a bottle of Proverb Pinot Noir for the win.
