Listen "Episode 4: Myths, Misconceptions, and Culture"
Episode Synopsis
America is one giant salad bowl. Everyone from everywherelives here and there is no single “American culture”. All backgrounds are represented, and different geographical regions of the country can be drastically different from another (just ask Hoff about southerners vs northerners). Superstition, rituals, mythology stories, and general knowledge. There are thousands, maybe millions, of cultures in the world. Each has something unique and even bizarre. Sometimes, people think something only exists in their culture but it’s actually global. There’s warm cultures and cold cultures. Hierarchy and anarchy. Maybe whatever grandpa says it actual fact and it’s not up for discussion. Who throws salt over their right shoulder and spits over their left shoulder three times? Why can’t we walk under ladders or cut a boy’s hair until his first birthday? There’s a lot to unpack here. Join a multicultural group of sharing and laughing about their own background and what it means to them and how we all mix into American society.
