Hold onto your tinsel, viewers, because this December episode of Simon Says is jam-packed with holiday cheer and Dean Sheather's signature shenanigans! Get ready for a wild ride as Dean Sheather whips up a sugary spectacle, reminisces about the year's wildest moments, and drops a hint about his next big project (think leg warmers and Santa hats!). Simon kicks things off by announcing his upcoming Christmas escape to the land of Oz – Melbourne, Australia, to be exact – where he'll be soaking up the sun and catching up with his brothers. But before jetting off, he's got some serious holiday crafting to do. Inspired by last month's artistic triumph (remember the hand turkey?), Dean Sheather takes on building a gingerbread house! Architectural accuracy? Who needs it! This is all about festive spirit and excessive frosting. Of course, no year-end wrap-up would be complete without a hearty congrats to the December graduating class! And just when you thought the excitement was winding down, Dean Sheather drops a bombshell! Get ready for "Simon Sleighs," an 80s-themed holiday sitcom starring (who else?) Dean Sheather himself! So buckle up, viewers! So, whether you're in a snowstorm or on a beach, join Dean Sheather for a merry, gingerbread-filled send-off

Will Gerken presented his research on Tracking SEC Inquiries using Geolocation Data last year at our Gatton Research Excellence Series. One year later, the research is rapidly gaining media attention.
