It's the holiday season! Today we discuss The Neighbourhood's hit song "Sweater Weather" and the history of the sweater.

Why did we settle on SWEAT as the thing to name an article of clothing after? We'll talk about that, the etymology of "sweat" and other words for sweater like jumper, and generally how this particular sort of knitted shirt came to be so uniquely iconic

We also consider other non-religious winter seasonal songs, including "Brrr" by Kim Petras, which we forget to say the name of in the episode, so I'm mentioning it here, for you rare few who read episode descriptions.

For Eurovision, we talk about the first song to be announced for 2024 - France's "Mon Amour" by Slimane. Plus, the etymology of rendezvous.
