Cold War on Christmas (Repeat) | Sleep With Me #176
Christmas comes early this year in the form of this replay that is a prequel to our holiday series. Isn't that a regift? Ideally you won't notice as you slip into deep sleep.
Breaking revelations about the Christmas (starts at 14:30) you thought you knew presented in a boring dull way without shock value. Just soothing revelations, possibly. This is based on a covered up Christmas special originally titled Scientists vs Santa or something like that. It has Russians and Industrialists and Santa and a woman who will be named and then her name will be changed. Really the cold war is just a backdrop, so the title is somewhat misleading.
Please take our audience survey!!!

He was last spotted in the hills of Saskatchewan (which is oddly nearly 6,000 miles from Tahiti).
