Squanto

     Scrappisode 8 was posted Friday, May 9. It's about the American Indian named Tisquantum. What was recorded of his life was rough and heartbreaking at times. He was obviously a rugged individual, for he still helped the Pilgrims begin the Plymouth colony despite the many mis-treatments from several European sailors.




    We have portrayed part of Tisquantum's misadventures in "America Begins #8: Squanto" on Da Scrappy Chihuahua Podcast 2.0. He was one of the quiet ones who do important deeds and usually get overlooked by carnal man because of their misplaced values. If not for Tisquantum, freedom as we know it would not have happened.

Life in Leiden

     The remaining pilgrims finally arrived in Amsterdam after being separated from their families for several months. But as a few more months went by, a schism began when Reverend Smyth began leaning toward the teachings of the Mennonites.

     Heated arguments and strifes between congregation members flared up. Pastor Robinson decided it would be best to relocate his group of Separatists about 50 miles away.

Almost Killed At Sea!

     We continue enacting the events in the lives of the pilgrims in the 6th scrappisode that went up this weekend. The first group of pilgrims who fled England to the Netherlands spent nearly a year without their friends and family that were left behind. In fact, they themselves were almost killed in a vicious storm after they had drifted off course.



     The ones who arrived later worked very hard to get there. They suffered jail time, mocking and ridicule, and worked jobs they would not normally choose to do. They humbled themselves before God and man (or in the show's case... dogkind) and refused to change what they believed under intense pressure and circumstances.

Scrappy debates whether or not to disguise his pocket watch as a yo-yo or not.

Separated Separatists

     Scrappisde #5 of America Begins is up and running. The families of the pilgrims were separated for much of a year. Several men made it to the Netherlands on a Dutch ship. But the captain decided to abandon their wives, children and some of the other men on shore when he saw the King's soldiers coming to arrest them.

     We chronicle the events and you can hear them at the Podcast Machine. We hope you find them entertaining while you learn some #pilgrimfactsonly . 

Betrayed!

     Scrappisode 4 is posted and accessible. It's aggravating enough being poor and anyone you ask for help under the table charges you what you can barely afford. It's worse when you've gone broke and your hired help sells you out!
 

    "America Begins #4: - Betrayed experiences you through the hardship of people seeking freedom from tyranny. Listen as Granite tells the #pilgrimfactsonly.
