Hello, my friends and happy Thanksgiving. Though I am vegetarian and don't eat turkey I have a real soft spot for Thanksgiving. Partly because I love the idea of taking some time to stop and take a look at what we should be thankful for. Also, because Thanksgiving marks the last day before the Christmas season (which many of you know I am obsessed with Christmas).
Though Thanksgiving songs may not be as popular or abundant as Christmas songs, there are some truly fine Thanksgiving songs out there. One of my favorites is Irving Berlin's I've Got Plenty to be Thankful For. This song was written for the classic movie, Holiday Inn (1942), where Bing Crosby sang it.

There aren't a lot of Thanksgiving movies, however Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987) stands as a true Thanksgiving classic.
Now for a classic Thanksgiving cartoon from the wild mind of Tex Avery.
Plus, one of my favorite scenes from the Harold Lloyd feature film, Hot Water (2024). This scene is especially appropriate for Thanksgiving.
I don't post enough about old radio shows here. So here are two great examples of Thanksgiving themed classic radio show episodes.
Now for a little appropriate Thanksgiving music.
Universal Weekly, 1928
And to you dear reader, I am very thankful for you and hope you are having a wonderful Thanksgiving.
