It's that time of year again when although there may be many things from which we have not profited, I dare say, when it has come round, I have always thought of this time of year as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when Sinead, Ross and Niall seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow-passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys. (...plus, it's the only time of year when THE REEL TAKE hosts do a ridiculous Christmas episode). And therefore, though it has never put a scrap of gold or silver in my pocket, I believe that this podcast has done me good, and will do me good; and I say, God bless it!
