The late conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh would read “The True Story of Thanksgiving” on the eve of Thanksgiving every year before his death.
Limbaugh would read “The True Story of Thanksgiving” from his best-seller book “See, I Told You So.”
The Conservative talk show giant went deeper than the story about the Pilgrims and explained a larger theme about Thanksgiving: “Socialism failed.”

Per Focus on the Family:
On the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, I can’t help but remember our old friend, Rush Limbaugh – conservative talk radio’s titan who passed away in February of 2021.That’s because each Thanksgiving Eve for three decades, El Rushbo would begin playing Mannheim Steamroller Christmas bumper music and read “The True Story of Thanksgiving” from his book, “See, I told You So.”Now, what distinguishes a good Thanksgiving celebration from a great one is generally subjective, a bit like the conceptual art display featuring a banana duct-taped to a wall that sold for $6.2 million at a New York auction last week.
But from reading the popular press, you’d be forgiven if you assumed everything rises and falls on the food. Thanksgiving by the culinary numbers is always impressive.
Americans will consume more than 46 million turkeys on Thursday, 21% of the total number produced all year. Add in 250 million pounds of regular potatoes, 50 million pounds of sweet potatoes, 50 million pounds of stuffing, 80 million pounds of cranberries, tens of thousands of cans of Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom Soup, and 50 million pumpkin pies, and a lot of the effort and focus will be on the menu.
