What's the deal with nativities?

What’s the deal with nativity scenes? That’s what the hosts want to know. And, to some degree, they learn the answer.

The hosts learn about a rather shocking Catalan nativity tradition and how some Catholics are super smug about Protestants’ veneration of statues around the holidays.
