Holiday Yule logs tradition: Where to watch, stream them
Amazon Prime's 'Yule Log' burns for 10 hours straight
For those of us who are fireplace-less, being able to stream a crackling fire into the living room could be pure holiday magic.
“The Yule Log” made its holiday debut in 1966, according to The Wall Street Journal, when WPIX broadcasted a burning fireplace log to New York viewers.
Now the tradition remains, but there’s more than one way to watch.
