The Gift of the Present: Thanksgiving with Ken Smith from the North Pole News Dispatch
Podcast:A Cozy Christmas Podcast Published On: Thu Nov 28 2024 Description: Happy Thanksgiving! In today's episode my guest is Ken Smith from the North Pole News Dispatch - one of my favorite Christmas podcasts! Fans of good food, good friends, and good music will enjoy the first part of our discussion where we chat about everything from Thanksgiving recipes and traditions and then talk about Burl Ives and his classic song "Holly Jolly Christmas". Then we turn to a more serious discussion on how to find joy when times are hard. We end the episode reflecting on what we are thankful for - and Ken reminds me that the happy memories I have of those who are past, and those who are with me in the present, are a precious gift. Also, there is a special video version of this episode on youtube, you might want to check it out!
