0:01:03.960 --> 0:01:07.280
<v Speaker 1>Of course I'm back. We're doing this this cast potting

0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:11.440
<v Speaker 1>thing right Yeah, but let's do dive right in. There's

0:01:11.480 --> 0:01:13.640
<v Speaker 1>so much left to do before Christmas, and we can't

0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Delhi Dali. Yeah, indeed, Santa. I thought we would start

0:01:16.480 --> 0:01:18.600
<v Speaker 1>today with a question. I want to know, were you

0:01:18.640 --> 0:01:23.600
<v Speaker 1>around at the very first Christmas? M good question. Um, No,

0:01:24.520 --> 0:01:26.720
<v Speaker 1>I've been around a long time, but I haven't been

0:01:26.760 --> 0:01:29.720
<v Speaker 1>around that long. But some of the traditions from that

0:01:29.800 --> 0:01:33.160
<v Speaker 1>first Christmas endoor, the match I gave gifts, we still

0:01:33.240 --> 0:01:35.720
<v Speaker 1>do that. Yes, some families still put a star on

0:01:35.800 --> 0:01:38.880
<v Speaker 1>top of their Christmas tree to symbolize the star that

0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:41.720
<v Speaker 1>the magi followed. That's right, And I would like to

0:01:41.760 --> 0:01:44.240
<v Speaker 1>think that the feeling of hope and magic from that

0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 1>first Christmas, well, that it can still be felt today.

0:01:47.600 --> 0:01:49.840

0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Let's let me ask you a couple of questions. Tell

0:04:48.120 --> 0:04:50.000
<v Speaker 1>me Roman, how do you think I get down your

0:04:50.080 --> 0:04:55.120
<v Speaker 1>chimney land on the roof? I do I do? How

0:04:55.120 --> 0:04:58.560
<v Speaker 1>do I get my jolly old belly down that chimney? Though?

0:04:59.040 --> 0:05:03.400
<v Speaker 1>Not it's Chris go, that's the secret. It's true. I

0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:07.560
<v Speaker 1>use banks and a whole lot of butter. Some of

0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:10.120
<v Speaker 1>it's Christmas magic, some of it's just the things that

0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:12.320
<v Speaker 1>you can find in your kitchen. And I have a

0:05:12.400 --> 0:05:15.520
<v Speaker 1>quick question here though. I know they're really excited for

0:05:15.560 --> 0:05:17.400
<v Speaker 1>you to be there, and they're gonna set out cookies.

0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:20.840
<v Speaker 1>They don't have a chimney, and I'm sort of curious

0:05:20.880 --> 0:05:23.640
<v Speaker 1>how they think you are going to get into, deliver

0:05:23.680 --> 0:05:25.960
<v Speaker 1>presents and eat those cookies. That's a good question. How

0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:39.560
<v Speaker 1>do you think I'm going to get inside? Is past? You? Can? You?

0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:46.679
<v Speaker 1>You get in now? Listen, nobody's supposed to know about that. Okay,

0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:55.600
<v Speaker 1>I watch the watch, but listen. If you tell anybody

0:05:55.600 --> 0:06:00.000
<v Speaker 1>about that, they're gonna know my secret. If you could

0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:03.320
<v Speaker 1>have one Christmas wish, maybe for the whole world, what

0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:07.680
<v Speaker 1>would it be. I think it would be that everybody

0:06:07.839 --> 0:06:14.839
<v Speaker 1>can get their presence um at Christmas night the water,

0:06:15.720 --> 0:06:19.839
<v Speaker 1>make more treats, to spend time a friend and family,

0:06:20.040 --> 0:06:23.640
<v Speaker 1>to share kindness to all the people are All I

0:06:23.720 --> 0:06:27.360
<v Speaker 1>want for Christmas is for my friends to have the

0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:29.920
<v Speaker 1>best Christmas that they can have in their lives. For
