Twinkle all the way — The latest on APN - Dec. 3-9

They may be the longest and darkest of the year, but December's evenings are awash with all sorts of twinkly goodness — from light installations to freshly fallen snow, the season's sparkle helps us cope with even the most frigid temperatures.

We like taking long walks in the neighbourhood these nights, along with a good playlist and a warm cup of candy cane mocha (or mulled glühwein — it all looks the same in a travel mug). Check out the latest episodes, and welcome the weekend with your pals on APN.  

The “subscribe” button on the Listen Notes playlist below will let you grab APN’s most recent episodes for your podcatcher.
