Thanksgiving & Book Club

Lets give thanks! This week Meg and Cam demystify the American holiday Thanksgiving! Before all that our hosts talk about their weeks which included not drinking, an overdue lunch with a friend, Carl's upset tummy, missing a concert, an NBA game, a volleyball game and buying a tv at Costco. It's book club again! This week we discuss Open Book by Jessica Simpson and the journey that was reading it. Yikes. When it comes to the learning portion of the episode our hosts try to find the real story of Thanksgiving, no matter how disturbing. They also attempt to discover the origin of the food most commonly associated with the holiday, although they kind of get bored. At the close of the episode Megan drops a truth bomb that she learned this week and Cam learns something about himself. We hope you enjoy this episode and take a moment to reflect that if you are listening in North America you are listening on stolen land, and take a moment to read this article with ways you can honor the memory of the lives lost and the resilience of the Indigenous people this Thanksgiving season.  https://www.dosomething.org/us/articles/truthsgiving-the-true-history-of-thanksgivingWe hope you enjoy this episode and don't learn anything without us!Make sure to like,  review, and subscribe!
