Message: “The Thanksgiving Episode”

The StoryMen take some time to reflect on what they’re grateful for. The conversation turns to Thanksgiving traditions – real and made up. Then, since we’re talking about founding myths, we investigate recent admissions by the Mormon church that Joseph Smith was in fact a polygamist. Finally, we engage the conversation about the “Stand and Greet” time many churches employ, but many people hate. Plus, we introduce our Pop Culture Picks of the Week!

Earth to Echo with Henry Gayden

Henry also worked on Spider-Man 3, and wrote a YouTube series called Zombie Roadkill, so we have plenty to talk about, including how awesome Sam Raimi is, how he broke into Hollywood and what's next for him.
