Thanksgiving Surprise

In a year where many people have had to forego their usual Thanksgiving plans due to circumstances beyond the control of this podcast, John, Peggy, Shelly, and Jim convene via the miracle of Zencastr to engage in a rambling tour de force that covers the entire oeuvre of In Search Of An Argument.  The Gang of Four rambles through a discussion of this year’s Thanksgiving plans and past year’s Thanksgiving memories, with side trips to politics, psychology, history, and personal idiosyncrasy.   This episode was conceived of on the spur of the moment, recorded in the heat of passion, and edited not at all.

We learn who everyone is eating with today and what is on the menu.  We learn that John and Peggy like to watch professional tennis and college basketball, but not the NBA. We consider Jim’s semi-urban lifestyle and ponder whether or not John, Peggy, and Shelly see their futures in the city or the country.  We talk about the failure of the national government in the U.S. to deal effectively with the pandemic and how things might have been handled differently. We talk about what we will miss most this year and why John hates Thanksgiving. We talk about a lot of carbs. It is a themeless pudding of topics swirled together for your listening pleasure.  And Peggy hates listening to her voice.
