Wikimedia

Thanksgiving weekend continues with more specials parking in the Exchange slots. 

At 8: You know the story of Thanksgiving origins: Pilgrims, Indians, a big feast... annnnd how much of that is true?  BackStory, with The American History Guys, separates fact from legend about our tryptophan-drenched holiday, in "American As Pumpkin Pie." 

At 9: Black Friday arrives with a Marketplace look at holiday business... lots and lots of holiday business.  The Marketplace Weekend team looks at where the holidays meet money. Host Lizzie O'Leary is joined by some of American Public Media's biggest names to explore that intersection, tell some stories, and help you financially navigate the holiday season.
