Good gravy, it's Thanksgiving already! We have everything you need for Turkey Thursday. Entertain your family with jokes, facts, and riddles. Maybe your uncles start arguing about politics. Quick -- you need to intervene! We've got you! Teach them to sing Freres Jacques! Nothing stops grown-up bickering better than singing a round. And we check in with a real live turkey just like we did last year. But this year we ask the question on everyone's mind. The elephant in the room. The question no turkey wants to hear. We risk life and limb to get answers up close and personal in the turkey pen. That's the kind of commitment we have to our listeners. We then hear a special report from Crow Agency Elementary in Montana to mark Native American Heritage Month. And we hear about yummy Thanksgiving food from students in Monticello, Georgia. As if that wasn't enough, we warm the cockles of your heart with the sweetest moments from this year's grandparent stories. Maybe YOUR grandparents will be inspired to record an interview with YOU to air on Wild Interest! Hint hint! Happy Thanksgiving y'all!!!
