Nadolig Llawen to all our Listeners
We hope Sion Corn has visited you on this fine festive day. For indeed we are BACK! And this episode went a bit Welsh! Much to Ben's chagrin.
In this episode we find out:
  • the female version of phallic;
  • what eggnog actually is;
  • how NORAD tracks santa;
  • and how following stars probably won't lead you to the next messiah.
To ensure at least some expertise on the panel we are joined by the wonderful physicist, astronmer and raconteur:
