and skip the news of the day and talk turkey. Thanksgiving turkey, that is. We spend the whole episode in a wide-ranging conversation about this fabulous American holiday, touching on food, entertainment, traditions, and gratitude. We discuss what to watch on TV, the best Thanksgiving side dishes, why turkey pardons are dumb, the differing regional and ethnic interpretations of the classic holiday meal, and what we’re thankful for as Americans this year. And, of course, we explain why turkey is possibly the worst protein you can have for this glorious, gluttonous feast. If you work for Big Turkey, this may not be the podcast for you. But for everyone else, it’s a good one.Check it out, follow us on Twitter/X (Mike / Art), and share the podcast with anyone you think might appreciate it. Thanks for listening. We’ll be back next week with our regularly-scheduled politics talk. Until then, have a happy Thanksgiving!
