For a lot of folks, the annual TV presentation of the Yule Log is part of the holiday tradition. If you’re not familiar, the Yule Log is a film loop of logs burning in a fireplace with a soundtrack of fire crackle and classic Christmas music. Yesterday, Within Earshot caught up with Ken Van Sickle, the cinematographer for the original Yule Log filming in 1966. Enjoy, and happy holidays!
