"Actual Friends" podcast hosts Dave Rubin, Sage Steele, and Dr. Drew Pinsky discuss why Thanksgiving conversations have become so heated in recent years, reacting to the political tension, cultural hysteria, and post-COVID strain that turn holiday tables into emotional battlegrounds, while also unpacking how resentment quietly destroys families from the inside out and breaking down the explosive cultural debates that ruin more Thanksgiving dinners than any other, including the clash between biological reality and modern gender ideology; with Dave explaining why these disagreements feel emotionally impossible to resolve, Drew highlighting how grudges operate like poison inside families, and the crew showing how honesty, forgiveness, and communication can prevent even the toughest conversations from blowing up, this becomes one of the most powerful and revealing discussions the show has ever had.
