E12 | There's a Turkey in the White House!

The election has come and gone, and while there’s a lame duck currently in the Oval Office, there will soon be a turkey at the White House. No, we’re not talking about the next President of the United States, but rather the time-honored tradition of pardoning an actual live feathered gobbler from being a Thanksgiving meal at the residence of our nation’s leader. But where do these turkeys come from? How do they get chosen? And what all is involved in the adventure and media frenzy it takes to get them there? We’re going to learn all that and more on this episode of Shooting the Shift.
