Kevin Cirilli sits down with Jim Hardaway — COO of Novelty Lights and one of the nation’s leading authorities on holiday displays — to trace how America became obsessed with lighting up the season. From German candle-lit trees in the 1800s, to the first electric strands in the early 1900s, to Reginald Fessenden’s 1906 broadcast of O Holy Night that merged Christmas with cutting-edge radio tech, Kevin and Jim map the full arc of Christmas-tech innovation. And of course: National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. Hardaway explains how the 1989 film — and Clark Griswold’s infamous “blinding the neighbors / knocking out the grid” scene — didn’t just become a punchline. It sparked a nationwide arms race of holiday displays and kicked off a modern industry. Together, Cirilli and Hardaway look ahead to what’s next: AI-choreographed displays, sustainable LEDs, solar-powered strands, and drone shows that rewrite the sky. If you’ve ever wondered how Christmas became a national tech sport — and where it’s heading — this episode is your new holiday classic
