Who is Santa Claus? Where did he come from?
We’ve all heard the names Saint Nicholas and Kris Kringle, but why would one character have so many names?
This season we look all the way back to the beginning and figure out exactly who is coming down our chimney.
Where did Christmas come from & who can really claim it as *their holiday*. This season we dive into the holiday we all built together over thousands of years, and find out how everything came crashing down only to re-emerge as something no one ever saw coming.
