Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's Delilah. Thank you for stopping by. I have
put together some of my favorite radio moments here to
share with you on our daily podcast. Hey it's Delilah.
I'm so glad you're here. It's no secret Santa Claus
(00:24):
is coming to town. You can meet me right here
each weekday for holiday audio, hugs and gifts in the
form of your memories, your stories, things you anticipate, and
your traditions all season long.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Hi Candace, Hi, welcome aboard. This is Delilah. What can
I do for you?
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Well, I have a Christmas story I'd love to share
with you.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Oh, do tell well.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
When my son was about four or five, I was
curious as to what he thought Santa was going to
put in his stocking, so I asked him he knew
that concentrated look little kids get. Well, he did that
for a minute, and he then said, a candy cane,
a Teddy bear, and a star. And I can understand
the candy cane and the Teddy Bear, but I was
a little confused about the star. So I asked him, well,
(01:13):
why a star? In his little angelic face lit up
and he looked up and he said, because I'm Christmas night,
the Christmas Star comes out and it sprinkles its love
all around. And when you wake up on Christmas morning,
you find a star in your stocking.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
And where did he come up with this?
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Out of the mouths of babes. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Ah, that was definitely an inspired little message for you.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
And every year since he's always found a star in
his stocking, and I.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Hope for the rest of his life he does.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
I'm sure he will.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
That is so precious. Yeah, my kids always find an orange.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Yeah we Yeah, I found oranges and apples, not sure,
stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
But he gets a star.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Well, maybe we'll have to incorporate that into our traditions.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Well, that's why I wanted to tell this story because
I'd like to pass it on so people think about
the love on Christmas, because that's what it's all about.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
It is.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Indeed, God bless you have a wonderful Christmas hunting.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
You too, Dear.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Hi, Good evening, Welcome to the Delilah Show. Who's this?
Speaker 5 (02:31):
This is Angelo, Delilah Angelo.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
What can I do for you tonight?
Speaker 5 (02:34):
Well, I'd like to have you select a very romantic
and loving song and dedicate it to my sweetheart path.
We've been together for four years now. We're not married,
but we're sweethearts and we've been together for four years,
and I just love every single bit of her. She's
the one I wake up in the morning with and
I spend all my day with, and the one I
go to bed with that night. In my mind, in
(02:57):
my heart, and in my soul, she's the most beautiful
thing that's ever walked.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
So you said you clarified this starting out saying that
you weren't married to her.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
No, why not?
Speaker 5 (03:09):
Well, we just haven't made that decision yet, and I
think we're just going to play it like we have
right now, and it's such a wonderful relationship that we
just don't think about the marriage at this point, and
maybe in the future we will.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Well, obviously you do, or you wouldn't have started in
your conversation out telling me that that wasn't the case.
Speaker 5 (03:29):
Well, we just think about it a lot, and we
talk about it occasionally, but we're so happy the way
we are that so I'm accepting that that's okay with
me as long as I know she's by my side
and I'm by her side. It's wonderful.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Well, God, bless you let me find the most romantic, beautiful,
loving song for Pat Well.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
I thank you very much, Pat, and you have a
nice holiday you too.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
Honey, Hi Gail, Hi Delilah.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
How is your Christmas season going?
Speaker 6 (04:09):
It's going terrific. And I just have to share the
funniest story with you. My favorite memory from Christmas. When
I was ten years old, my dad brought home the
Charlie browniest tree you could possibly imagine. We were horrified,
and he felt bad about that, so he disappeared out
(04:31):
into the garage with the tree, and we heard a
lot of banging and noise and strange sounds coming from
the garage, And about two hours later he emerged from
the garage with an absolutely perfect tree. Well, we kind
of looked at each other and we're going, well, Dad,
only God can make a tree. What did you do?
Speaker 2 (04:50):
I know what he did? Can I guess?
Speaker 6 (04:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:53):
He drilled the tree and filled it with leaves or
with boughs from other trees.
Speaker 6 (04:58):
No, he cut off all the branches, drilled holes and
rearrange Oh hearround.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
That's even better because my dad used to bring home
Charlie Brown trees because we'd cut him on our property,
and then he would if there was like an empty spot,
he'd just drill a hole and stick.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
A limon it.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
I just love that. It just makes me laugh.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Did your dad rearrange the whole tree?
Speaker 6 (05:21):
Yes, he cut all branches off. He would just use
what he had and just make it a lot better.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Oh my gosh. Now was he that way in life?
In all aspects of life? Did he, you know, take
whatever little bits or tidbits he had and make something
fabulous out of it.
Speaker 6 (05:35):
Absolutely, That's the way. He's always been.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
A resourceful man.
Speaker 6 (05:38):
I like resourceful. He's a mechanic in life, and so
he's always learned to just make do with what he had,
and he would just make do some he made. He
makes some really interesting things when he had to make do.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
I like that, though.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
I like a person who was resourceful. My mom was
the most resourceful woman in the world. And she used
to sew a lot, and it was amazing the creations
that she would come up with. When she didn't have
enough fabric, or she didn't have mending tape, or she
didn't have this or that, she could still, uh, you know,
make do and come up with beautiful dresses.
Speaker 6 (06:15):
I love people like that.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Well, God bless you and your dad and your little
Charlie Brown Christmas tree.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
You have a wonderful Christmas.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Tala Hi, good evening, Welcome.
Speaker 2 (06:30):

Speaker 4 (06:31):

Speaker 2 (06:43):

Speaker 1 (06:44):
So tell me your favorite holiday tradition tamalis. That we
cook tamalis for Christmas Eve and for.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
New Year's Eve, which is a surel.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I love making tamalies with my daughter. Really.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Yes, her grandmother, my former mother in law, but I
still call her my mother in law because she's still
a part of my heart and my family forever. Is
from Costa Rica, and so she taught me how to
make tamales for Christmas. And now my daughter and I
do that tradition.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
Oh good, good you like.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
I love them? So do you wrap years and banana leaves?
Speaker 5 (07:20):
Here?
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Corn husks, corn husks. Well, happy, happy Felicia, love Dad,
Marry Christmas.

much as I enjoy bringing them to you. I'll share
more with you each weekday on Hey, it's Delilah
