Elf On Your Face

December 20, 2021

This week, we bring you your second (albeit late) dose of holiday fun by talking about Santa’s Little Helpers. That’s right, elves! First, Cody tells the fascinating story of a real elf-like specimen (that Chris thinks looks like Watto) known as The Gnome of Girona. Then, Chris talks about a type of house elf - known by many names - that uses hay as a brutal weapon. Next, Cody takes us to Iceland to talk about protests against road construction due to elves living on the land. Finally, Chris discusses Malaysian elves called Oran Bunian, who almost stole one young boy from his family. Drinks this week are Pear Cider (recipe below), and mini bottles of champagne.
