Christmas, Holidays, KFC, and the Absurdity of Tradition | Good Afternoon Planet Earth On this episode of Good Afternoon Planet Earth, Amy and Dominic dissect the fascinating, often bizarre origins of holiday traditions with wit and irreverence.

Why does Japan eat KFC for Christmas? What kind of marketing genius convinced us to drag trees indoors and set them on fire with candles? And are holiday cards still relevant, or just a nostalgic flex from your high school crush?
