About this listen

Christmas Eve at midnight feels magical, like you could just reach out and, like Adam in the Sistine Chapel, touch the finger of God. It's magical and meaning-fraught for children and adults alike. Drawing on folklore and anthropology, this episode examines why this quiet hour feels holy and charged with meaning – even when nothing is happening.
