Not the Wisemen but Still "The Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry

"The Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry was published in 1905 and follows a young poor couple struggling to buy gifts for one another. They of course do, but by sacrificing what the other had bought the gift for - the girl her hair, and the man his watch. In this episode, Hannah and Jon discuss the theme, the title, and the true meaning of Christmas.

Join in as Jon and Hannah debate what makes a movie a "Christmas movie" and whether or not Die Hard and Home Alone should count, without a solid answer either way, except Harry Potter is definitely NOT a Christmas movie. Hear Hannah's lovely singing voice, and Jon's smooth reading. Find out what they think is the true meaning of Christmas, and learn some trivia along the way!
