It’s Thanksgiving time in America and we are talking turkeys, and sage grouse, and we are taking your calls on our scary-story line. What does the arrival of the Northern Flicker mean, in augury? How has the Triple Goddess survived relentless persecution by the patriarchal religions of bureaucracy? And why did Benjamin Franklin adore the wild turkey? It’s EPISODE #173: THE GROUSE AND THE GODDESS. Soundscapes by RedBlueBlackSilver, written and hosted by Ken Layne.
