E94: 'Tis The Season

Ho ho ho, it's officially time. Last week we were on the cusp, now we dove...dove? Not the bird, but is there another past tense of dive? Dived? Someone get me a dictionary for Christmas. Now we've jumped into the Christmas pool (something, something polar bear plunge), and there's no turning back until the new year. 

We have some more fun Christmas episodes coming, but to kick things off, I wanted to break down some of the most common Christmas debates and traditions. Trigger warning if you're a hardcore supporter of either side of the real vs. fake tree debate. I have to say though, the real-tree supporters always seem to be the ones doing the attacking. For people who want real Christmas, the spirit doesn't seem very alive when it comes to supporting your artificial tree owners. Just sayin'. 

Follow @thelink_podcast on Instagram and Twitter for episode recaps, clips, polls, memes, and late-night ideas about what to buy me for the holidays. I haven't charged you a penny for 94 episodes of gold. In fact I've given you the opportunity to make money (see the other shameless plug below), so the least you can do is buy me some nice new equipment, bake me some cookies, maybe make some apparel for the link...I don't know, it's your gift to buy! We talked about lists in the episode but I don't want to give away too much if you're one of the people that read the recap before listening, which by the way, who are you if you do that? Do people do that? Who am I writing this for? If you do read the whole thing, post "my grandma did actually get run over by a reindeer and I don't appreciate the constant reminder about it on the radio every year" @thelink_podcast. Not sure people listen to the radio anymore either but you get the point. Yes you, the one person who actually read this far.

Until next time, get your tree up, get your lights on, and wear your Santa hat to work, because it's whimsical and nobody can say anything about it. If they do, tell me. I have Santa's number. We'll get you written permission.

We don't talk a ton of sports on the link, but I have a background working in sports, loving sports, raging about sports, and most importantly, gambling on sports...profitably...usually. So I started "MikeTheMush Sports" which you can find on YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter. We're up over 100 units of profit in 2022, and are looking to close the year strong. We're always posting picks, breakdowns, reactions, and trying our best not to completely Mush any reasonable take I put out into the universe. Still, if you would have followed every pick we made on our YouTube video this year, and bet $10 on it, you'd be up over $1,000. Join us if you like me, sports, or cash. Any one of the three will do. Two out of three and you have to follow. I don't make the rules. See ya out there. I won't slap your butt as you run onto the field, because I don't think you can do that anymore, but just know that I want to, and it's purely motivational.
