Many of us grew up with an A-symmetrical belief system. We were so worried about being good, as to not miss out on receiving toys from Santa. However, if we weren’t so good, the worst-case scenario was a bit of coal in our stocking. Now, if you grew up in Central Europe, your belief system may have been skewed the other way. If you were good, you may be rewarded with a handful of treats, but if you were bad, you could be dragged to the depths of hell and tortured for eternity by an angry demon. Just saying, but it feels as if the reward does not outweigh the risk in the later situation.
Join your hosts, Dan, Travis and Alan as they dive into the Legend of Krampus and try to decipher what is folklore and what is enhanced commercialized story telling. Nevertheless, before they dig into the history books, the guys will talk about what their best and worst Christmas gifts growing up were. The guys may need to go see a therapist after this conversation. Anyway, stay safe, be good and avoid a very scary Christmas by listening now!
