How Christmas Has Changed Over the Years
from Only If You Can Keep Up · host Ash & Lynn
From tinsel-dusted living rooms to LED-blasted rooftops, we unwrap how Christmas has evolved decade by decade. We talk decorations that used to sparkle without screaming at you, music that shaped generations, gifts that tell the story of the times, and the changing world of holiday shopping, from catalogs to midnight online cart marathons. We also get real about the glow-up no one asked for: lights that are so aggressively bright they could guide aircraft, the fading of old-school traditions, and that creeping feeling that somewhere along the way, Christmas stopped feeling like Christmas.
