Episode 252 - Santa's Elves

Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year and it wouldn’t be possible without the elves who make it all happen behind the scene. They’re makers of toys and curators of magical moments. They keep an eye on all the kids and influence who goes on the naughty and nice list. Santa may get all the clout, but the elves are just as much a part of this holiday, though they weren’t always associated with Christmas. This episode looks into the evolution of elves as magical Christmas beings. Spoiler: Santa may not be a magical human after all. He may just be an ELF! TW FOR PARENTS: The magic of Christmas is kept alive in this episode, though there are some *spicy* adult jokes. If you’d like to skip over the beginning horoscope reading and banter, the story of Santa's Elves starts around the 00:20:00 minute mark Mentioned in this episode: Platonic (tv show) My Sisters Grave by Tracy Crosswhite The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E.
