Michael Lyons brings us Boozhoo Nanaboozhoo.

Today on Boozhoo Nanaboozhoo we learn how to say November in Ojibwemowin - "Gashkadino-giizis" for Freezing Over Moon. Keanu Reeves visits on the phone and along with learning "Gashkadino-giizis" (November) Nanabozhoo teaches him to say Monday - "Iswaa Anama'e-giizhigad" for Day after Prayer Day. Natasha tells us "Miigwech bizandaawiyeg" – Thank you for listening!
