Did you know that for us, the first sighting of eggnog marks the official start of the Christmas season? In our latest podcast episode, we take you on a heartwarming journey through our cherished traditions, starting with the playful sibling rivalry of spotting that elusive eggnog. We also share our personal Election Day rituals, where voting in person at the Veterans Memorial Hall in Auburn isn't just about casting a ballot—it's about connecting with the community and honoring a civic duty that resonates deeply with us.
Prepare for a nostalgic trip as we revisit iconic political and pop culture moments with a humorous twist. From Bill Clinton's fast-food escapades to the catchy campaign jingles of Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard Nixon, we explore the quirky ways political messages have been delivered over time. The episode wraps up with reflections on today's socio-economic challenges, inspired by the groove of James Brown’s "Funky President." As we emphasize the importance of unity and civic engagement, we encourage you to stay hopeful and active in shaping a brighter future.
