Episode 32 - Thanksgiving Crimes
Join us this week for our special Thanksgiving episode! We’ve got some turkey day trivia and a literal cat fight to start. Hannah tells us all about Omaima Nelson and her very special thanksgiving dinner. Sarah takes us to Virginia to tell the bizarre story of Christopher Gattis, the narcissistic pastor and his murderous nature. Meredith takes on Black Friday with some crime statistics and 3 short stories about crimes committed on Black Friday.
For astrology, Hannah mourns the passing of Scorpio Season since the Sun enters Sagittarius on 11/21 and Mercury enters Sagittarius on 11/24. Also, on 11/29 Mars in Scorpio will be trine with Neptune in Pisces which will be a magical day! Enjoy your holiday friends!
It’s never a bad idea to reflect on what you are grateful for and we (the TCT hosts) are grateful that we started this podcast this year and grateful for everyone who has listened to us.
Food Pairing: Whatever your heart desires. Maybe something that reminds you of childhood? Jell-O salad? Stove Top stuffing? Green bean casserole?
Or pass on this colonizer holiday completely and instead look into what indigeneous lands you’re living on: https://native-land.ca/. Hannah is living on Patwin land, which is a tribe that she has never heard of, despite growing up in California and going through multiple California history classes as she went through school.
