On this episode of Iron Silver and Salt, we take part in the end of the year holiday festivities to talk about the spookiest holiday horse: The Mari Lwyd. Adrian wants to wish everyone a very Happy HondaDays. Will is thankful for left-handed appreciation! Chris reminds his co-hosts that research is the ultimate gift. And we all hope you have a good holiday and a happy new year!
