Welcome to One Up the Annals
Hosted by Rab Greeson.
Join me as I do a cinematic narration of my creative nonfiction.
This isn’t a typical talk into a mic and interview people. Come hear a unique take on topics I find interesting, episodes are produced with music and sfx.
This show digs into the moments, obsessions, and mischief that shaped our world… not the textbook versions, but the human ones. The “how did we get here?” moments that connect past to present.
Each episode blends,
Cinematic storytelling
Cultural commentary with teeth
A little humor (the classy kind, mostly)
A unique approach and perspective
Whether it’s artists spiraling into brilliance, rulers courting disaster, or icons wrestling with the thin line between genius and madness, the Annals bring it all to life with heart, style, and a dash of irreverence.
If you love history, storytelling, or simply seeing humanity at its most human, you’re in the right place.
Where shame becomes legend… and the past finally gets the podcast it deserves.
Goodnight.

Episode 24 — Seasoning the Season: When Holiday Traditions Get Cooked
https://linktr.ee/oneuptheannals
This December, we’re not talking about the holidays you planned. We’re talking about the ones that happened anyway. When something slips. A turkey gets dropped. A gift detonates a relationship. Kids are kids. Someone discovers the punch wasn’t “lightly spiked,” it was weaponized.
And just like that, the holiday now has a name.
In this episode, we collect the true stories of December disasters that didn’t ruin Christmas… They became Christmas memories.
Because tradition tells you how the season is supposed to go. Reality tells you what actually happened.
And that’s the seasoning of the season.
