(00:00):
Three things you need to know.Good morning, Nashville. Just getting settled
over here on this Thursday morning.Ricky's got those three things. What's going
on? Bricks Cafe and Brentwood isclosing after fifteen years. They made the
announcement on Facebook, and its statementsay, recovery from the business downturn that
we encountered during the pandemic has beenslow and not put us in a position
to meet the large rent adjustment andterms that a new lease would have demanded.

(00:25):
So we hate to hear this.Lots of luck to them and any
endeavor that they may embark on.Their last day of service is November twenty
first. Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade isgoing to have six new floats. There's
gonna be a Willy Wonka inspired chocolatetree float and a teenage mutant Ninja turtles
floats. Also, Snoopy is gettinga new one with Woodstock and friends all

(00:47):
perched on a tent with the doghousein the wild turkeys. It's gonna be
really cute and cran fans. Itturns out that cranberry sauce can make or
break Thanksgiving, which is shocking tome. A pull from Ocean Spread the
Canned Cranberry Sauce Company. They foundthat eighty three percent of Americans say that
they believe that it's not even Thanksgivingwithout cranberry sauce. And we've talked about

(01:08):
before that it's very divided on whetherit should be canned or homemade, which
one is better, and everybody hastheir specific things that they like. But
forty six percent of those people thatwere pulled are as passionate about the cranberry
sauce preparation as their favorite sports team. What yeah, So, since this
poll comes from the cranberry sauce makers, I don't know how much I have

(01:30):
a grain of sauce, but thatwhole thought is pretty wild to me.
I don't care if there's cranberry sauceor not. Kevin's a huge cranberry sauce
fan. I wasn't until my wife'shomemade recipe touched my lips for the very
first time. And this year isthe year you guys become believers as well.
Can't wait to try. I'm RickySanchez and those are the three things
you need to know. Ricky,Zach and Mannow in the morning on one

(01:51):
of seven we are officially one weekout from Thanksgiving. It's one of seven
five the River. I know everybodyhas their specific Thanksgiving tradition. Yeah,
maybe you play flag football in thefront yard. Love that, Okay,
we want to know what yours isthough, Texas right now six four,
eight nine five. Put River atthe beginning of the message. Always put
your name in where you're texting from. Yeah, that's a good, good

(02:12):
rule to keep in mind. Whatare your Thanksgiving Day traditions? What do
you do? Let us know,Ricky, Zach and Meno in the morning
on the River. Thanksgiving is aweek away, It's almost here. Thanksgiving
Day traditions are something that you know, everybody looks forward to for Thanksgiving Day,
not just the turkey. It's oneof sep and five of the River.
I had a specific one that Iused to do with my family when
I actually lived back at home,and it was left right center. We

(02:35):
would play that. What does thatmean? It's like you roll the dice
and it's like this little game whereyou gamble money. Oh yeah, so
we see take each other's money onThanksgiving. It was any tradition. We
would do that at my aunt's housefor a big family Christmas party. I
didn't realize that was I thought itwas just us. You didn't know that
every Thanksgiving holiday traditions. But nowwe need a new one because I'm not
at home anymore. I'm here andmy boyfriend and I all fiance and I

(02:58):
that's weird. Okay. If yousaid I we need a new tradition,
you're on the verge of having yourown family here. Possibly you're entering into
a new chapter of life. Thatbreaks me out. It's the reality.
Is that the reality it's happening.We did get a couple of text here
down and Franklin said, I'm thirtyeight years old and I've never missed a
Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. Oh Ilove that year. I do love that.

(03:20):
This is every year going to becontroversial. Guys, I don't like
parades. I don't get parades.What do you mean? They're just these
big floats. They look so cool. I guess if you're there, it's
really cool. But I try towatch it on TV with my family,
and it just seems like a bigNBC commercials from the new show The Witch
Doctor. Here's someone who has doneboth. It's way better at home because

(03:40):
you could drink, use your ownbathroom. You're not stuck around a bunch
of people, and you're warm.Yes, you're warm. It's way better
at home. I'd rather want somethingelse. Mute it if you want.
Yeah, I don't get it.Sorry, Alex said, my family always
goes out for Chinese food, likethey do in a Christmas story. I'm
here for it. Yeah, ifyou're not, like I'm starting to think
that turkey he's just not as popularas it used to be. Nobody's kind

(04:01):
for the turkey. Guys. Ithink we just did it because we had
to. Yeah, it's not athing. Yeah, I think you're right.
A new Thanksgiving tradition for all ofus this year. I mentioned it
a bit ago, but coming upjust after Thanksgiving Tuesday, the twenty eighth,

the air that all that Dolly isbreathing and bring it back to me.

(06:14):
I'll try. It might look alittle crazy. You're gonna look a little
crazy no matter what, because whenyou meet her, you're going to probably
humble over your words. Dude,I don't know. I don't know what
I'm gonna do. It's it's insane. She is a legend, she is
an icon. Dolly for president.This thing is good at security is very
tight at this thing. I don'tknow who's gonna be there. You don't
