The Lost Christmas Podcast - (0:29) November 19 2022: The movie recommendation is The Family Man. TV recommendation is Alfred Hitchcock presents Back For Christmas. Book recommendation is Nicholas Saint North and the battle of the Nightmare King. After this Geoff then goes into the main topic which is Saint Nicholas of Myra. Patron saint of so much! Have I got the episodes mixed up, because following this is part two of the section in The lost Years of Santa Claus about how people on earth know him under different names. Part one was two episodes ago in my listening. Anyway, still a bloody great show! Bring on the book’s release.
