“Come over to Charlie Browns” - The Holidays Are Here! Part 1

This week! Candace the Magnificent, Liv Kennedy, and Jeremy Cobb ease into the holiday season as Jeremy explores the differences between UK and US celebrations. They look at the contrast in Halloween hype and how their childhoods shaped whether they did, or didn’t, celebrate.

Jeremy shares his complicated relationship with the holidays, reflecting on childhood boredom, babysitting, and feeling excluded, all of which shaped his adult ambivalence toward the season, not to mention the pressure the holidays can bring.

The Halfings talk about the comfort of being welcomed into other people’s traditions and how technology now makes it easier to connect with family or a chosen community. They also discuss the emotional walls we build around family to fit in or protect ourselves during the holidays.

The Halflings end this episode with the important discussion of racism and sexism in sport, noting that this topic deserves an entire episode of its own due to the importance.
