The Grapes of Wrath Are Bittersweet

The Flynn Bros. discuss John Steinbeck, the Dust Bowl, and some fun facts about the novel. Later, they introduce the Joad family and follow their migration to California, stopping along the way to appreciate Steinbeck’s slice of life vignettes. Finally, the brothers play a Grapes of Wrath-style Mad Libs game, “The (Blank)s of (Blank).”
