Description

The United States of America is gearing up for one of their biggest retail frenzies of the year, aka Thanksgiving. But here in the Gifted Underachievers Clubhouse, we’re overlooking the troubled roots and current expression of this feast day and feeling gratitude for having gotten this far through the year. James takes a break from managing the culling of the turkeys while he and Pat discuss what they’re thankful for in these strange times.
