Episode 0150 - Dr Pepper Eggnog

Frank Murphy is joined by his friend Becca James, the girl with two first names. They will taste-test the allegedly viral Dr Pepper Eggnog that Frank saw on Instagram. 

Knoxnews photographer Saul Young took photos at the City of Knoxville Christmas Tree lighting. Jody Collins and Sarah Roberto were among those photographed. One man was wearing a “Saul Young Appreciation Society” sweatshirt. 

Frank and Becca hosted the livestream of the Karns Christmas Parade on YouTube. A plumber modified a go-cart to look like he was driving a giant toilet. His staff gave away toilet paper, which some British people describe as “loo rolls.” Frank picked up some Milk Duds candy off the road for Becca.

Becca bakes Italian pizzelle cookies for Christmas and potato latkes for Hanukkah. Frank is not allowed to eat any of the cookies that his wife Jere has baked because they are to be used as gifts. However, Frank is allowed to eat the cookies that Jere received as gifts from her coworkers. 

Logan Murrell co-hosted episodes 0139 and 0146 of the Frank & Friends Show. Using the artist name “LAMB,” she recorded an album titled “Love, Mom” which is a love letter to her two children. Stream the album on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/album/148Xa3COJwyEC37ePOXGYG?si=RwRuaoXpQbS9Jr_aV3Dl5g or on Apple Music at https://music.apple.com/us/album/love-mom/1773141328 

Frank was deeply saddened to learn that Logan’s two-and-a-half year old daughter Bobby Grace died of a rare disease last week. Frank went to the cemetery for the graveside service and listened to the “Love, Mom” album while waiting for the funeral procession to arrive. Frank called Jere to help him identify one of the other mourners who had waved at him. He gave Logan a “prayer bear” for her son. 

Frank saw a 15-second Instagram video titled “Viral Dr Pepper Eggnog” and immediately knew he had to try it. Fill a glass three-fourths of the way with ice cubes and Dr Pepper. Then add eggnog. Frank loves Weigel’s eggnog. The drink tastes like an ice-cream float after the ice cream melted. 

Jere surprised Frank by giving Becca a plate of the cookies that Frank isn’t allowed to eat. Frank explains that he likes ice with a hole in the middle because he thinks the impurities have been drained out. Dr. Frank Jr. PhD. says that is plausible because of the colligative properties. 

Becca got rid of her white car that she named “Blanca.” Frank is able to guess the name she gave her new blue car.
