91: Winter Traditions

from Brain Junk Hosted by Brain Junk

Whether you celebrate your winter solstice on Dec 21st in the northern hemisphere or June 21st in the southern, cultures around the world love to gather together to celebrate the return of the sun in wacky and unusual ways. In today’s episode, we’ve got tons to talk about. In Japan, people eat fancy KFC on Christmas (winter solstice’s holiday cousin), in Antartica, you might do a polar plunge at McMurdo Station, and there’s more… Curl up under a blanket (or slap on some flip flops and hit the beach, you listeners down south) it’s time for some winter traditions.
