EP 24: The Story of Thanksgiving Pt. 2


Listen Later

This is part 2 of our series on Thanksgiving. Today we focus on what happened after the first meal and how the relationship between the colonists and the Indigenous people rapidly deteriorated. But to not be entirely depressing we also end the episode talking about some of the weird traditions that have become associated with the holiday.
