The Little Engine That Could: We Think We Can-can

from Dads on Books · host Michael Walker & David Patrick

The Dads on Books, Mike and David, chug along discussing The Little Engine That Could, proving they "think they can" podcast! David chose the book, then, like a lost toy, couldn't quite recall why. Mike, however, remembers the 1900s, but not why he went into the kitchen! They explore old-timey art (complete with hyphens!), discover Watty Piper's secret identity, and dissect anthropomorphic trains, even making an "FE" joke, periodically speaking. From page-turn peeves to an SNL parody, the dads keep the conversation on track, even if their research occasionally derails!Looking for an episode we touched on in this one?
