Thanksgiving is a culturally relative holiday, especially in this neck of the woods. But, since your editor is obsessed with music for all holidays, she slow-roasted an aural mix of 23 classic and modern tunes to soundtrack your cookin', eatin', and snoozin' on the couch. It's an unusual TIL podcast in that there's only one local track, Trilobite's "Pumpkin Farmer." TIL is thankful for all y'all -- family, friends, artists, and patrons -- and wishes you and yours a beautiful day.
