Greetings heathens and witches,

Welcome to the Horn and Cauldron podcast…

Yule is celebrated from November through January with parties, feasts, decorations, and presents! In modern times, Santa is synonymous with the Yule season, so it’s fitting that we look at a Santa movie and discuss it!

In this episode, we talk about the movie Red One (2024), it’s ties to the season, Santa, Krampus, Gryla, and her sons. This review does contain spoilers, so consider yourself warned.
