Today we had the intention of teaching, but in the end, Sakura and I chat about what Xmas is like in Japan. We throw in a couple of Xmas words and cover the Emperor’s Birthday, which was yesterday. From Japanesepod101, wishing everyone a Happy and Healthy holiday season. Merry Xmas!

Why is it that there are questions on the review that are not covered whatsoever in the lesson?

Brandon,
It may look like a lot, but there is only one word (3 kanji) that in the Lesson Review and not *thoroughly* covered in the audio lesson. It is Omotesandou (area in Tokyo). It was briefly mentioned in the audio.
表参道
Is this what you are referring?

Shouldn’t this episode belong to the Survival Phrases section?

Probably not, since Japan isn’t a christian country.
And Japanese people don’t get off work and most don’t even celebrate it. You could live in Japan your whole life and never need to say Merry Christmas to anyone. Furthermore, there were any phrases taught except for メリークリスマス

There is a question in the quiz that does not make sense…
休みの日を何と言いますか。
やすみのひをなんといいますか。
Yasumi no hi o nan to iimasu ka?
“How do you say “”yasumi”" in English?”
平日 ・ へいじつ ・ Heijitsu
日曜日 ・ にちようび ・ Nichiyōbi
休日 ・ きゅうじつ ・ Kyūjitsu
月曜日 ・ げつようび ・ Getsuyōbi
None of the potential answers are english! Yasumi would be like rest or break in english.

Merii Kurisumasu Mina 
Watashi wa Porutogaru jin desu and I am enjoying so much hearing and learning japanese with japanesepod101 lessons that I made a blog where you can read what is said in the lessons with the meaning in portuguese.
Anyone interested in Portuguese, visit the below site for a Portuguese translation of this lesson.
