It's February 2nd. You just woke up. You exit your burrow to sniff the cold air. If you see your shadow, you recoil and usher in weeks of Winter. If you don't, then Spring is near. Now... imagine it's a TIME LOOP and your name is Bill Murray! On this episode, we explore the origins of Groundhog Day, from Celtic Imbolc to Candelmas, St. Brigid's Day, and more... and dive deep into meteorological animal prognostication. We've got marmots, woodchucks, whistlepigs and W O N D E R. And we even play I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE. It's the FIRST GROUNDHOG DAY.
