EP 60 | Yuletide Prank Bros
Kimmy Hammons  •  Aloreing Podcast Episode • 11/23/2023

Hey Campers, we have a delightful mischievous yuletide topic for this week’s episode. We will be discussing the holiday history and classic poem of the Yule Lads. Both Kimmy and Ryan start by making it very clear they can’t pronounce a single yule lad name, why milk straight from the tap is the best, and how the yule lads are the result of Gryla’s infidelity with the 7 dwarves. We hope you enjoy this episode of Aloreing, and remember campers get it straight from the tap, and that it’s just a prank bros… Oh..  and Gryla is definitely cheating on her husband.
