In this episode, we explore what the LSSU unicorn hunters have to do with burning snowmen. This leads us to also investigate the origins of snowman burning festivals where booggs are burned in effigy of winter.
\n
\nWe also examine what burning snowmen share in common with Punxsutawney Phil.
\n
\nHint: Both are believed to have prophetic powers!
\n
\nDo they?
\n
\nDon't know. We know what Phil's prediction for 2021 was. Today is the day to burn a snowman to find out if there's any merit to that legend. Because the first day of spring is when to set snowmen on fire.
\n
\nSo if you have any snow lying around, feel free to build a boogg, ignite it, and watch the smoke. That'll tell you what kind of spring and summer to expect!
