Join us for a super-sized Deep Dive episode of vintage Christmas stories, traditions, and holiday fun!

This episode was born when we wanted to find out more about the iconic silver aluminum Christmas trees of the 1950s and 60s and that took us on a wild ride! We talk about Christmas decor trends from the 1920s through the 1970s, as well as share anecdotes from family and friends. Rachel gets her burning questions answered, such as: What is a flocked Christmas tree? And Debra learns the history of the Christmas Pickle ornament.

Pour yourself a cup of hot cocoa....or something a little stronger from your bar cart....and enjoy this special episode!
