This week, in honor of the holidays in the U.S., I discuss how we are handling finances and Christmas and charities with our kids, and what lessons can be learned from that to make them not only better geeks but better people! I also include a quick review of Dungeons and Dragons Online- with the best price point of any game – FREE! We also have a voicemail show coming soon, so feel free to send in your comments!

Don’t forget to check out the 365 Days of Astronomy Podcast! We have a new show that went up on Dec. 8 about Kuiper Belt Objects!
