Episode 144: Strange Traditions

  • Summary

  • After a few weeks off, the boys are back with a brand-new episode! The holiday season is a time for joy, family, and... bizarre traditions? In this special installment of Pop Culture Roulette, we’re unwrapping some of the most unusual Christmas customs from around the globe. From Japan’s finger-lickin’ good tradition of celebrating Christmas with a bucket of KFC to Iceland’s mischievous Yule Lads, each with their own unique personality and pranks, this episode will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about the holidays.

    We’ll take a magical detour to Italy, where La Befana, the kind yet scruffy witch, takes center stage by delivering gifts on Epiphany Eve. And let’s not forget the annual pudding-throwing extravaganzas that leave some communities delightfully sticky and entirely festive. These odd yet charming traditions remind us that the holiday spirit comes in many flavors—sometimes fried, sometimes magical, and occasionally hurled across the room.

    Don’t miss this laugh-filled journey through the weird and wonderful world of Christmas! Be sure to follow Pop Culture Roulette wherever you get your podcasts. Share this episode with your friends and family, and let us know which of these traditions you’d dare to adopt (or maybe already celebrate). If you enjoy our quirky takes on pop culture, leave a review—it’s the best gift you can give us this season!
