165. The Nostalgia Test Podcast Thanksgiving Potluck
On today’s Thanksgiving special, we’ve invited our podcast family over for a nostalgic potluck of go to Thanksgiving movies & side dishes to put to the ultimate test—THE NOSTALGIA TEST!
“Thanksgiving is a sides holiday.”
-Dan
This is a jam-packed Nostalgia Test holiday classic filled with amazing movies, food, and plenty of technical difficulties to go around. And if you’re watching this on Substack or YouTube, Dan’s internet literally erased his image from the whole episode. His voice is there, but he’s a ghost. Dan, Manny, & Billy set the tone for what makes a good Thanksgiving movie, why Thanksgiving is a side dish holiday, & they put their foot down on turkey being overrated, especially white meat. Total trash. Podcasters from all over the pop-culture podcast-sphere send in their takes on what good Thanksgiving movie is and they bring a dish to couple with their choice. The movies go from My Cousin Vinny, Planes, Trains & Automobiles, slasher films like Thanksgiving & Blood Rage, and heartwarming family films like Home for the Holidays & Avalon, and so many more. It’s a real family affair on The Nostalgia Test Podcast.
So grab your hungover cousins and go for a “walk” (if you know, you know), load up on cheap drinks and rich food, and dive into the only podcast to bring Thanksgiving back!
