Taking a Little Break
<p>Hey Weirdos! We know we owe you a new episode this week, but . . . Happy New Year?! We're taking a few weeks to travel and spend time with our families. We'll be back soon with a whole bunch of new stuff, so hang in there. See you soon!</p>

A Very Traditional Episode
<p>Traditions help us Weird Humans feel connected to our families, our communities and our culture. We have to thank Dan, one of our listeners, for the inspiration to create this episode. Well, really, who are we kidding? We recorded this one in December, so making an episode about different holiday traditions was super low-hanging fruit . . . </p><p>We started off talking about how important it is for us humans to form these traditions in order to feel connected to each other. Almost immediately, we started picking apart the traditions of other cultures and pointing out their flaws in reasoning . . . If you're listening to us from the Netherlands, we're having some issues with your Zwarte Piet. Never heard of Zwarte Piet? Check out the controversy <a href="https://www.nationalgeographic.com/history/article/black-pete-christmas-zwarte-piet-dutch"><strong>(here)</strong></a>.</p><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card kg-card-hascaption"><img src="https://weirdlyhumanpodcast.com/content/images/2021/12/what-is-the-christkind.jpeg" class="kg-image" alt srcset="https://weirdlyhumanpodcast.com/content/images/size/w600/2021/12/what-is-the-christkind.jpeg 600w, https://weirdlyhumanpodcast.com/content/images/size/w1000/2021/12/what-is-the-christkind.jpeg 1000w, https://weirdlyhumanpodcast.com/content/images/2021/12/what-is-the-christkind.jpeg 1538w" sizes="(min-width: 720px) 720px"><figcaption>Credit: https://germangirlinamerica.com/what-is-the-christkind/</figcaption></figure><p>The Netherlands aren't the only country to have Weird Human holiday traditions. Elle is learning German, and had to bring in the German traditions of the Krampus and the Christkind. Iceland has its own special holiday flavor with 13 Yule Lads. These Santa-Trolls each have unique personalities, and Icelanders put up with their shenanigans in exchange for daily gifts for Advent. </p><!--kg-card-begin: html--><iframe src="https://giphy.com/embed/PuKSVqbw0hEpq" width="480" height="264" frameBorder="0" class="giphy-embed" allowFullScreen></iframe><p><a href="https://giphy.com/gifs/friends-christmas-PuKSVqbw0hEpq">via GIPHY</a></p><!--kg-card-end: html--><p>We would be completely remiss if we didn't mention some of the fun traditions enjoyed by our Jewish friends, and Candace tells us how she really feels about White Elephant gift exchanges . . .</p><p>Whatever your traditions Weirdos, we hope you have a Happy Holiday Season! We'll be back with more in the New Year . . . </p>

We're So Vain
<p>This week's episode took us on a journey of self reflection . . . okay, who are we kidding? We're Weird Humans and naturally, we're just as concerned about our appearance and likelihood of age related memory decline as the rest of you. It's no big secret that our society is youth-obsessed, and we (especially as women) are inundated with messages that we had better be paying attention to our looks. And that we'd better be ready to drop some serious cash for lotions, potions, creams, Botox injections and eventually plastic surgery to keep up the ruse that we're going to be young forever. </p><p>Elle just celebrated a big birthday, and will be continuing the party for as long as she can get away with it. In her honor, we've decided to rename her birthday month "Elle-tember". Sure, we should have released this episode in that month. But, seriously, we're typically late to any party, so why should this one be any different? And she may or may not be wearing the same outfit . . . </p><!--kg-card-begin: html--><iframe src="https://giphy.com/embed/iIDeJDVaq5tAMVCvbP" width="480" height="270" frameBorder="0" class="giphy-embed" allowFullScreen></iframe><p><a href="https://giphy.com/gifs/HunterTools-hunter-huntertools-tools-iIDeJDVaq5tAMVCvbP">via GIPHY</a></p><!--kg-card-end: html--><p>Leaf blowers are a perfect analogy for what's wrong with our society. They take a problem from over here, and just blow it over there. They don't really solve anything! The fact that we both own leaf blowers, just means we're part of the problem. We're also annoyed by the 24 hour news cycle, the NextDoor app, and digital calendars. Amy Poehler had it right in her book "Yes, Please!" The robots may eventually kill us, but until then they will just make us miss appointments.</p><p>In our research for this episode, Candace got some much desired Botox injections and binged some "Community". </p><figure class="kg-card kg-embed-card kg-card-hascaption"><iframe width="356" height="200" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/sBCE9oIuN24?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe><figcaption>Watch "Community" on Netflix</figcaption></figure><p>Thanks so much for listening, Weirdos. We'll be back in 2 weeks . . . </p>
