What in the world is a "scurryfunge"? Have you ever used a Yule-hole? What is the history and story behind names like "Grinch" and "Ebenezer Scrooge"? If you've ever wondered about such things, then you're in luck! Because today my guest is author, word expert, and Christmas enthusiast Grace Tierney. She hails from beautiful Ireland, and is the author of a brand new book called "Words Christmas Gave Us" and it's a fun look at many of the yuletide words, names, foods and phrases we use that have their inspiration because of Christmas! We also talk a bit about A Christmas Carol and which version we think is the best. (Spoiler alert: we agree!) You won't want to miss this fun and educational episode!
