In this episode, I tell the story behind Silent Night, the most popular Christmas carol of all time and, by some accounts, the most recorded song in history. But there's more to this classic than just its melody—its connection to the WWI Christmas Truce makes it a symbol of peace and hope during the holiday season. Tune in to discover the story behind the beloved Christmas classic.
