European Christmas, American Thanksgiving and Easter
Inspired by Thanksgiving, which was recently celebrated across the country, Ismaine and Robin compare celebrations and holidays in America to those in their native countries of France and the UK.
They compare European Christmas to American Thanksgiving; consider how Easter seems to be a bigger thing in France and the UK, despite Americans’ being more overtly Christian than the French and Brits; and talk about two important days that are unique to their two native countries – Bastille Day (14 July) and Guy Fawkes’ night (5 Nov), respectively. Most poignant is their discussion of Remembrance Day (11 Nov). On a much lighter note, they talk a little about Hallowe’en, which no other country does quite like the USA!
As you can tell, this show is a little different from the usual - with no politics anywhere in sight!
