Another holiday season has come and gone here in Italian America.

The fishes have been served, the champagne has been popped, and the lentils have been eaten, so we’re kicking off the new year with the best thing we can think of to combat the post holiday blues… a collective therapy session!

We’re getting together to share our reflections on this year’s Christmas and New Year’s celebrations, with a thoughtful eye on how Italian American family traditions are evolving in an ever-changing world.  We’ll explore what practices and customs have changed, and how technology might just be redefining the entire concept of the holidays.

We’re discussing our attempts (or lack thereof) at some New Year’s resolutions, and considering the ways in which we might find new opportunities to make 2022 a definitional year here at the Italian American Podcast.

It’s a conversation with depth, heart, and some incredible questions that often bubble up when we sit down at the table, as well as, of course, the non stop laughter that comes with the gathering of great friends. If you are an Italian American who just survived another year of Christmas Eve, Christmas and New Year’s,  you won’t want to miss out on this thought-provoking episode!
