The Most Wonderful Time of the Year
From a time of pre-pubescent revenge, to a time of cynicism, to actually the most wonderful time of the year, Osher tracks his history with Christmas, what saved it, and why it stands a testament to the different stages of his life. Recorded live from Story Club, December 2024. For more like this, get tickets to the next Story Club or check out the Substack. Click here. See omnystudio.com/li
