About this listen

 Well, we made it! My name is Brittany Stewart, I'm a Melbourne-based journalist, host of another Beauty Island, and an absolute Christmas obsessive. I started it last year after one too many watches of Love Actually looking for something to get me in the festive mood. Thankfully I was not the only one and It got such a brilliant reception from all of you last year, so here we are again. A Christmas Binge is all about celebrating the spirit of the season by chatting to interesting people to find out how they celebrate. Each episode, I sit down with a guest and ask them about their Christmas Binges - the show or film they watch religiously to get them in the festive mood, what they eat and what goes on the dinner table come Christmas Day, and of course, their unique Christmas traditions. It's light-hearted, festive fun to get us in the holiday spirit, because goodness knows after the year it's been we all need - and deserve it. Today, I am thrilled to have a cracker episode in a slightly different format: a series of interviews and segments covering different aspects of Christmas. Thank you to Steph for sharing an insight into a London Lockdown Christmas, Lauren for speaking so openly about Christmas without her mum, Alana for sprinkling the episode with some Christmas tree cheer and Bec for sharing some very helpful tips for our mental health this season. The advice in today's segment is prepared for educational purposes. Advice is broad and not specific to individual circumstances and does not supplement individual psychological therapy.

A disclaimer: I know for many people, for many different reasons, find Christmas a very difficult period. And even more so in 2020, when it really has been a year like no other. I am so privileged to have had family and Christmas experiences that make it a time of year that I love. So I just wanted to flag that this podcast largely deals with the positive and often indulgent side of Christmas, and we're very lucky to have the privilege and freedom to talk about things like the food we're eating and the way we celebrate and gifts and family. If it's a topic you find hard, this might not be the podcast for you right now. But if that is you, please know you're not alone. A reminder of the helpli...
