Stuffed with turkey, and ready to rack up their credit card bills, John and Gordy celebrate Black Friday and the start of the Christmas season. They cover the National Day Calendar, then welcome in Beth Johnson from the nonprofit WayForward, and the Holiday Art Market, to talk about the annual event coming up in December. Later, we return to a topic from yesterday with Mike McCabe, discussing education, why teachers are leaving the profession, and what the education system of the future looks like.
