S1E12. The Big Debate Behind Florida's Holiday Traditions
About this episode
We know that Florida isn’t exactly considered a winter wonderland, but that doesn’t mean we don’t bring the holiday cheer—our wild way. In this low-key episode of Drinks with Floridaman, we dive into the big debate: does Florida even have real holiday traditions, or are we just slapping tinsel on a palm tree and calling it a day? From seriously sandy Santas to unique local celebrations, we’re breaking down what makes the holidays in Florida special (or not). And, after all, who really wants to shovel snow? 🎄☀️
