#32: THANKSGIVING SPECIAL 2022: Alice's Restaurant
HAPPY THANKSGIVING! In this surprise minisode, Cal & Nick carve up the bizarre Turkey Day anthem "Alice's Restaurant" by Arlo Guthrie. Join us as we sip whiskey colas and ponder why this rambling, 18-minute folk song became a Thanksgiving tradition.
DID YOU KNOW??
--"Alice's Restaurant" was based an actual events in Arlo Guthrie's life, including an arrest for littering which may have helped him avoid the Vietnam draft...
--Arlo's father, the legendary Woody Guthrie, wrote a diss track against Donald Trump's dad back in 1954...
--There truly isn't ever more in the back...
We're thankful for all the love and support you've given us over the past two years. Enjoy!
