About this listen

Jason and Emily kick off Thanksgiving by sharing wild and fascinating facts you can use to wow (or mildly unsettle) your dinner guests, from why “Jingle Bells” was originally a Thanksgiving song to why Snuggies might have been the downfall of society. Along the way, Jason talks about his chaotic childhood Thanksgivings, they rant about why concerts are no longer fun, and things get just a little unhinged in the best possible way. 00:00 Old Science 05:53 Christmas Lights Before Thanksgiving? 08:04 Michael Bublé 13:09 We don’t like concerts… 15:21 Jason’s family 20:00 The Downfall of Society… 23:47 Thanksgiving Facts to wow your guests… 29:37 The quilt lady… 32:19 Pies 37:25 More facts 41:45 Campbell’s Soup 45:32 Balloons 52:40 Attitude of Gratitude Sponsors for this episode include: Voetberg Method Experience This month, use my code: CRUNCHY20 to get 20% off each month you’re subscribed.
