Gobble gobble, dear one! 🦃

In this special archived episode, we’re taking a delicious stroll down memory lane to revisit the iconic Turkey God episode—the one that started it all! Almost five years ago, on April Fool’s Day (just in case I needed an out), I nervously hit publish on this masterpiece. Fast-forward to now, and here we are a thriving podcast community built on weird history, women’s history, and world history! I need a new word to express my thanks for your support over the years because thank you just doesn't cut it!!!

What’s Inside This Episode?

  • Wild Turkeys & Divine Messages: How these feathery mailmen acted as spiritual messengers for the ancient Mayans.
  • The Colorful Connection: Why their blue-green feathers and maize-yellow heads were a big deal in 300 BCE.
  • Sacrificial Snacks: How turkey blood kept Mayan gods happy and their crops flourishing.
  • The Night Turkey (Chalchiuhtotolin)—God of Chaos and Kindness: This moody celestial turkey could either bless you with fortune or ruin your life. (A literal 50/50 shot!)
  • From God to Grocery Store: The fascinating fall of the turkey, thanks to colonization.

Why Listen?

If you love history with a side of snark and unexpected facts, this episode is your jam. It’s short, sweet, and perfect for a turkey sandwich break! Plus, you’ll never look at a turkey dinner the same way again.
