Rangeley Capital's portfolio managers Andrew Walker and Chris DeMuth Jr. host a 15-minute podcast, which you can subscribe to on iTunes, Stitcher, or audioBoom. If you missed the previous episode, then please check out Will Verizon Dump Yahoo!? (VZ, YHOO).

In the current episode, we start with our new president's favorite social media, Twitter (NYSE:TWTR), and our favorite tweets for the year as well as favorite books. We turn to Christmas gifts, which Wharton economist Joel Waldfogel calls an "orgy of wealth destruction". Then we turn to Santa and the lack of progress in Santa debunking over the past century.
