Episode 42

Pull up a chair, pass the stuffing and help yourself to some white meat – it’s Thanksgiving Day here in Canada. (And if I do say so – here in Toronto, it could not have been a lovlier weekend to be out and around. I can’t remember the last time so much time was spent on Thanksgiving sitting outside in shirtsleeves). Behind my trusty microphone, Thanksgiving brings with it an annual tradition of sitting down with a guest and talking about what we’re thankful for. Off the hop, I can tell you that I’m thankful for a guest who was so eager to be on the show, and likewise I’m thankful to have seen such a wonderful film for the feature discussion. But enough chit-chat…there’s movies to talk about and food to be eaten. So as I brace myself for a third family dinner in as many nights, join us at Casa McNeil for a warm and fuzzy edition of the show.
