This one-hour special is a collection of 9 conversations about the meaning of Christmas?all set to music. The perspectives are for the most part non-traditional and include authors, pastors, mystics, a specialist in rituals, and an aroma therapist. Some of the discussions are quite esoteric, and at times difficult to follow. Others are insightful, and include interesting history and analysis. The hosts engage well with their guests, but their questions from guest to guest are often repetitive, as are the answers. Although I can?t say the show held my attention for the entire hour, it did make me slow down, and contemplate the meaning of the holiday for myself. This self examination was a welcome retreat from the frenzy of the holiday season.
