Speaker 1 (00:00):
Modio in the morning, Shannon got a little.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Issue with Thanksgiving. What's happening.
Speaker 3 (00:04):
Okay, so it's a weird year. It was a weird
year for Halloween. It's a weird year for Thanksgiving for
us as well. And I say that because I don't
have my kids, Lucy and Smith, and my sister. It's
her year to go to her in laws, and my
mom usually goes with them, and so it is looking
like it's going to be just myself and Wes and
(00:27):
maybe his kids maybe not. I don't we're not even
quite sure of what that situation is yet. He was
trying to figure that out last night. So he mentioned
the possibility of his sisters coming in from Canada.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
But he's like, I don't.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
I don't know if this is going to happen, Like,
I don't know if we should bank on this or
plan on this, and I like to be prepared. So
yesterday I casually threw out the idea of having Thanksgiving
dinner at one of the restaurants here in downtown Detroit
that is offering a Thanksgiving dinner option. They looked at
me like I was a gremlin, Like, why we cannot
(01:04):
have Thanksgiving anywhere? But at home, and I said, you guys,
all of the prep work and the shopping and the
cooking which I don't really cook, but I had to help,
and the cleaning for two, maybe three, possibly four people
is just not worth it to me. But they are protesting.
(01:24):
I'll get leftovers from a restaurant.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
And I'm already. Here's the other thing.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
I'm already going to be downtown because we do brunch
and we do the parade, and then I have to
transfer Lucian Smith to their dad because they go to
the gates. So like we're already to be downtown anyway,
it would be perfect to just hang to each is all.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
That's not things given for me.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
That's what That's what West said.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Our phone lines down.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Oh okay, yea real quick. So here's what else West said,
while he's figuring this out.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
No, it's back, that's our phone is our listeners. Some
listeners are texting a bunch of listener to textan that's
the phone line went down.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
So it's only because we had jingle ball tickets.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
So is that what it is?
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Sometimes just get overwhelmed?
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Okay, all all right, go ahead, Beck, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
That's what Wes said. keV Is.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
He was like, I want to be respectful of other
people and I want them to be enjoying Thanksgiving with
their families, not preparing my Thanksgiving meal and I go west.
We're already going to Hudson Cafe in the morning, so
that it does not work.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
And he was like, oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
And those people are working regardless. If you're not there,
someone else is there.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
So this is always a dilemma in our family too,
because we did it last year. We went to the
last year, I thought it was my favorite Thanksgiving I've
had since Chelsea and I, you know, we're young and
had young kids, because I think now it's just a
bunch of beefy kids that you're feeding right now, it's
just another fricking day feeding me and mom doing all
(02:49):
the work and then she complains and nobody's helping her
and all that stuff. So last year we did the
Lions game and we did Thanksgiving dinner afterwards.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
It was the best.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
Thanksgiving, and did Thanksgiving dinner out.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Thanksgiving out, and I even ordered food Thanksgiving food from
the place that we had dinner at and I brought
it home for leftover. So I had extras that we
can make stuff after. We didn't have any pots or
pans to clean. We had the best time. The Lions
game was unbelievable. Member that I do.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
That was awesome.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
Life is so much better when you can wake up
or you go to wherever they're cooking and you can
smell the food being prepared.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
You're missing all of that by going on.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
There doing it.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Sounds like Kevin, you don't cook. So this is why
it's so fun for you. You don't have to do anything.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
You just show up.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
That doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Anyway, This is true. I help and I do the
place settings. That's my thing. But I agree with you
and that I love having Thanksgiving at home. I love
having all of my family with me. But if it's
not going to look like that.
Speaker 5 (03:54):
What's the point, Listen. I remember a couple of years
ago I had Thanksgiving. It was just me and mar Groove,
And I think it's that old adage where you know,
like the you know, house is not a home like
that type of thing, like you make it your Why
was it just you and your girls?
Speaker 1 (04:09):
That's what we decided to do. You didn't wait, you
didn't go to your families or doing it.
Speaker 6 (04:13):
No.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
I think I probably saw them the next day or
something like that, but this was our time. It was like,
you know, saying in a relationship, let's let's let's do
this together.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
I thought it was my dad and my stepmom. What
they're doing they usually do it with I don't know
they've done it with us, They've done it with friends.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
It's just a weirder.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
And then this this thought that Wes's family might and
friends might be coming in from Canada because they celebrate
Thanksgiving on a They already celebrated Thanksgiving, but he was like,
that would be fun to have everybody in town and
get a chance to see them, but they don't know
if they may come, they may not. I'm like, look,
there's going to be a deadline because I need to prepare.
I'm not joking. I need to mentally prepare if that's happening.
(04:49):
So I'm like, by this Sunday, do you need to
figure this out?
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Do you get excited when he says that, or do
you go, oh, God, family's coming in. Because I always
wonder when I say to tell see because I get
excited to see my family, but I always wonder you.
Chelsea is like, I don't want to the family come in.
I want it just to be us.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
I love having people come over. I don't love having
people stay. Oh, and especially right now, our house is
under massive construction because we had a bunch of we
have a pipe situation going on, so I have.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
Like no ceilings and no bathrooms. It's nutty.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
And so I told Wes, I'm like this, I want
everybody to come, but we'd you'd have to very politely
tell them our house is not stayable. They'd have to
stay in a hotel.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
All right.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Thoughts on this eating out on Thanksgiving? Thoughts on this one?
What's going on?
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Pam, Hi?
Speaker 7 (05:42):
I good morning. So Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday and
we've always done it at like my mom's house, and
my dad passed away this summer and his memorial is
on his birthday, which is the day before Thanksgiving. And
we've got grandkids and siblings coming in from like four
different states. We are all going out to eat. Twenty
five of us are going out to a restaurant in Metamora.
(06:06):
And then, because I still like having people over, I'm
hosting afterwards a pie party, so everyone is bringing.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Are you going to the White Horse Inn by the way, Yeah,
I didn't know that they did Thanksgiving. Shoot, that just
might have made the decision for me.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Is that a good place?
Speaker 4 (06:27):
The white Horse.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Inn is iconic beautiful too, Yeah they Oh my god, yes,
it's so it is.
Speaker 7 (06:35):
You can make cobbler at a pie party after at
the by party at the party.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
That's a great idea. Uh, what's going on, Kenny? How
you doing? Barren?
Speaker 7 (06:44):
Guys?
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Shannon? Make the dinner my dear?
Speaker 6 (06:49):
My mom the one year.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
They just moved back from Florida, so she didn't want
to do a big dinner, and she decided that she
was going to get Jimmy John's cater.
Speaker 7 (07:00):
John roast turkey.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
I had a turkey tom on white.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
My god, you know what.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
That's so funny.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
You just reminded me one year my mom didn't want
to cook and so she just ordered slows and my
sisters and I.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
I love slows, but.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Thanksgiving I wanted Thanksgiving for and that wasn't Thanksgiving to me.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Imagine if it was Jimmy Johnson. That's a million, Oh
my god worth it. Thanks Kenny, appreciate it. Uh, Laura,
what did you guys do for your Thanksgiving?
Speaker 8 (07:33):
So last year and this year at the middle of October,
I ordered honey baked Ham. I get the ham and
the turkey, so that a way you can have a
little bit of both and you also get like size
and stuff.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Yeah, we did that.
Speaker 8 (07:47):
Throll that in the oven and bam, you're done.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
So we did it and I thought it was that
was just okay. The ham definitely. Their turkey's just okay.
I think you gotta have You're gonna have turkey. You
gotta have like a big old turkey that looks like
a turkey boy.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Yeah, and you gotta want to I want.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
To s Yeah, but I want to see the legs,
and I want to see the you know, the wings,
and I want to see everything else.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
When you guys were growing up, did dad or mom
bring out that electronic kitchen knife the money?
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Yeah? What's going on?
Speaker 1 (08:20):
H Actually, if you watch the ed Gean movie, please,
you'll have a whole different.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
What's up, Hi, Martin, what's going on?
Speaker 6 (08:32):
Hey? Good morning, guys, Good morning.
Speaker 9 (08:35):
So I used to live on a state for about
twenty years with my ex boyfriend, and one of the
things that we did in the holidays because we didn't
live near any family.
Speaker 7 (08:43):
Is we didn't cook like Denny's Eye Hop and everything
like that.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
White websitry stop to stop your phone cut out. You said,
what would you You would go to Denny's and ie Hop.
Speaker 6 (08:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (08:55):
So we would go to Denny's and Eye Hoop and
we would tip like the waitress like three four dollars.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Wow, so cooked.
Speaker 7 (09:02):
But we were also be thankful for the service workers
that were out there because I used to be one,
and it's just it's a good feeling. You know, you
can meet the people.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Jimmy's an eye Hoop on Thanksgiving.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
That's he cooks.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
Oh, they go into tip. Okay, all right, So that's
that's nice for you to do that.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
That's sweet. That's sweet.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
I don't want to judge that that was nice for
you to do it, But if that was your meal,
I'd rather have Jimmy John's.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Yeah, you know what I mean. Hold on a second.
What's what's up, Jersey? How you doing?
Speaker 5 (09:33):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (09:35):
What's up?
Speaker 7 (09:37):
What's up?
Speaker 8 (09:38):
I think Thanksgiving has to be at your house, A
huge Thanksgiving with my dad's side.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Of the family, and it's just like fifty plus people.
Speaker 7 (09:48):
Everyone makes a dish and everyone like brings it in,
so it's not just one person.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
At all.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
It is nice to have lots of people over on Thanksgiving.
It doesn't seem right when it's just a few people.
Like you can't sit at a you know, big kitchen
table and have like empty chairs.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I like the idea.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
I like a Thanksgiving where you don't have enough chairs
and some people have to.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Like, you know, sit on the couch with their last Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Or like a coffee table you have to pull or
something like that. You have to bring over an item
that is not necessarily an item to sit on. Yeah,
those are great ones. But I'm not gonna lie to you.
Going to the Lions game and then having a great
meal afterwards is freaking awesome. It really is. It was
one of my favorite things that the leftovers hit the same.
Uh you know what, the leftovers the next day are leftovers,
they're the same. Yeah, I agree, it's not the same.
(10:34):
The best leftovers are not the next day. The best
leftovers are at nine or ten o'clock that night when
everybody is kind of like just sitting there watching Elf
or something.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
What's up, Jesse, where do you guys go?
Speaker 7 (10:46):
We go to the Zenders every year.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Frank, do they have turkey or just the chicken that.
Speaker 8 (10:53):
They have, No, they have turkey, and their shrimp is
the best.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Noodles.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
She just closed her eyes.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
And nothing says Thanksgiving like noodles.
Speaker 7 (11:12):
Thundered noodles are the bat You haven't try.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Don't be mad at me for saying this, but that
place is way overrated. I feel like a curmudgeon.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
This one time, and you have hated on it for
seven years.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
We drove all the way up when I first moved
here years and years ago and started doing this radio show,
everybody kept talking telling me about it.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
You gotta go, you gotta go.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
We go up there and the freaking uh you know,
the the Christmas stuff was like a flea market, you
know what I mean, buying from the and theers.
Speaker 8 (11:44):
Was like, we do Slash Village and we do then there.
So because we have two kids, so it's just like
the black.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
A little Splash Village's the hotel that has the water park.
So all right, you know what I think? Happy, Happy Thanksgiving?
What's up, Geneva, what's going on?
Speaker 4 (12:04):
Hey?
Speaker 7 (12:05):
First time?
Speaker 4 (12:05):
Long time?
Speaker 9 (12:10):
Okay.
Speaker 8 (12:10):
So I live by roots Turks and we have wild turkeys.
Speaker 5 (12:15):
Okay, So the other day I was taking my.
Speaker 7 (12:17):
Daughter to work and someone had hit a turkey. I
dropped her off.
Speaker 5 (12:21):
Before I could come back around to get home, someone
else was scooping up the turkey.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
No wait a second, that's not going to be on
somebody's table, is it.
Speaker 6 (12:30):
I have no clue, but shall look out the fire cracks.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Do we know? Do we know? Can you eat a
wild turkey?
Speaker 1 (12:41):
I don't know if you can eat a wild turn?
Speaker 5 (12:44):
I don't know, but they definitely picked it up like
they wanted to.
Speaker 8 (12:47):
That was not a city worker, that was a regular
person with wow.
Speaker 5 (12:51):
Same idea for like deer, Like, how do y'all test
them to make sure they don't have anything?
Speaker 1 (12:56):
I don't, Well, don't people? I think you you know,
how do you test your out that you're gonna eat?
I don't think they test our count crog. I don't
think they do. I think they just say I think
they trust. That's why there's called recalls, miss fit Tony.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
To wrap up? What's that for? Thanksgiving? Topic? Here? What's
going on?
Speaker 6 (13:13):
To listen, little joy old clans, you got me in
on this first of while you're gonna hold me one
hundred dollars because Detroit gonna lose second leg? Will think
such a big deal about Thanksgiving. It chrismas all that.
It's just a big waste of time. Take your family
out to eat them with this she want to heat
(13:36):
if she want to, but give them a dad lie.
Don't make a big deal about It's no somebody gonna
get talking. They're gonna start fighting anyway.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah, it's true, It is true. Actually it's funny.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
I love the people that don't really care about Thanksgiving,
but they go out shopping that night, you know, which,
honestly is kind of fun to do it all together.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Doesn't it over? You don't do that anymore those days.
Speaker 6 (13:59):
I'm not a big deal about it. If you want
to go out to eat, there's no stipulations that need
to be followed. Listen, if y'all come and come, if not,
off the end, Mocho.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Hurry you come over, Tony that I should do a misfit, uh,
you know, Thanksgiving one year, like when the boys decide
that they've got their own families and they don't want
to come home to Chelsea and I and Chelsea's Lake
all depressed.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
I'm gonna say, we got kool aid.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Lady over there, misfit Victor right over there, Tony right
over there, Kevin.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
The loves can't come. Only you and Kevin can come
with me. The ladies can't come.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
I'm not hanging out with a bunch of sausages. We're
not having a sausage fast on Turkey Day.

Chelsea is like, I don't want to the family come in.
I want it just to be us.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
I love having people come over. I don't love having
people stay. Oh, and especially right now, our house is
under massive construction because we had a bunch of we
have a pipe situation going on, so I have.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
Like no ceilings and no bathrooms. It's nutty.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
And so I told Wes, I'm like this, I want
everybody to come, but we'd you'd have to very politely
tell them our house is not stayable. They'd have to
stay in a hotel.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
All right.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Thoughts on this eating out on Thanksgiving? Thoughts on this one?
What's going on?
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Pam, Hi?
Speaker 7 (05:42):
I good morning. So Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday and
we've always done it at like my mom's house, and
my dad passed away this summer and his memorial is
on his birthday, which is the day before Thanksgiving. And
we've got grandkids and siblings coming in from like four
different states. We are all going out to eat. Twenty
five of us are going out to a restaurant in Metamora.
(06:06):
And then, because I still like having people over, I'm
hosting afterwards a pie party, so everyone is bringing.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Are you going to the White Horse Inn by the way, Yeah,
I didn't know that they did Thanksgiving. Shoot, that just
might have made the decision for me.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Is that a good place?
Speaker 4 (06:27):
The white Horse.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Inn is iconic beautiful too, Yeah they Oh my god, yes,
it's so it is.
Speaker 7 (06:35):
You can make cobbler at a pie party after at
the by party at the party.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
That's a great idea. Uh, what's going on, Kenny? How
you doing? Barren?
Speaker 7 (06:44):
Guys?
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Shannon? Make the dinner my dear?
Speaker 6 (06:49):
My mom the one year.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
They just moved back from Florida, so she didn't want
to do a big dinner, and she decided that she
was going to get Jimmy John's cater.
Speaker 7 (07:00):
John roast turkey.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
I had a turkey tom on white.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
My god, you know what.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
That's so funny.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
You just reminded me one year my mom didn't want
to cook and so she just ordered slows and my
sisters and I.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
I love slows, but.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Thanksgiving I wanted Thanksgiving for and that wasn't Thanksgiving to me.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Imagine if it was Jimmy Johnson. That's a million, Oh
my god worth it. Thanks Kenny, appreciate it. Uh, Laura,
what did you guys do for your Thanksgiving?
Speaker 8 (07:33):
So last year and this year at the middle of October,
I ordered honey baked Ham. I get the ham and
the turkey, so that a way you can have a
little bit of both and you also get like size
and stuff.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Yeah, we did that.
Speaker 8 (07:47):
Throll that in the oven and bam, you're done.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
So we did it and I thought it was that
was just okay. The ham definitely. Their turkey's just okay.
I think you gotta have You're gonna have turkey. You
gotta have like a big old turkey that looks like
a turkey boy.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Yeah, and you gotta want to I want.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
To s Yeah, but I want to see the legs,
and I want to see the you know, the wings,
and I want to see everything else.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
When you guys were growing up, did dad or mom
bring out that electronic kitchen knife the money?
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Yeah? What's going on?
Speaker 1 (08:20):
H Actually, if you watch the ed Gean movie, please,
you'll have a whole different.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
What's up, Hi, Martin, what's going on?
Speaker 6 (08:32):
Hey? Good morning, guys, Good morning.
Speaker 9 (08:35):
So I used to live on a state for about
twenty years with my ex boyfriend, and one of the
things that we did in the holidays because we didn't
live near any family.
Speaker 7 (08:43):
Is we didn't cook like Denny's Eye Hop and everything
like that.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
White websitry stop to stop your phone cut out. You said,
what would you You would go to Denny's and ie Hop.
Speaker 6 (08:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (08:55):
So we would go to Denny's and Eye Hoop and
we would tip like the waitress like three four dollars.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Wow, so cooked.
Speaker 7 (09:02):
But we were also be thankful for the service workers
that were out there because I used to be one,
and it's just it's a good feeling. You know, you
can meet the people.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Jimmy's an eye Hoop on Thanksgiving.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
That's he cooks.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
Oh, they go into tip. Okay, all right, So that's
that's nice for you to do that.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
That's sweet. That's sweet.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
I don't want to judge that that was nice for
you to do it, But if that was your meal,
I'd rather have Jimmy John's.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Yeah, you know what I mean. Hold on a second.
What's what's up, Jersey? How you doing?
Speaker 5 (09:33):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (09:35):
What's up?
Speaker 7 (09:37):
What's up?
Speaker 8 (09:38):
I think Thanksgiving has to be at your house, A
huge Thanksgiving with my dad's side.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Of the family, and it's just like fifty plus people.
Speaker 7 (09:48):
Everyone makes a dish and everyone like brings it in,
so it's not just one person.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
At all.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
It is nice to have lots of people over on Thanksgiving.
It doesn't seem right when it's just a few people.
Like you can't sit at a you know, big kitchen
table and have like empty chairs.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I like the idea.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
I like a Thanksgiving where you don't have enough chairs
and some people have to.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Like, you know, sit on the couch with their last Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Or like a coffee table you have to pull or
something like that. You have to bring over an item
that is not necessarily an item to sit on. Yeah,
those are great ones. But I'm not gonna lie to you.
Going to the Lions game and then having a great
meal afterwards is freaking awesome. It really is. It was
one of my favorite things that the leftovers hit the same.
Uh you know what, the leftovers the next day are leftovers,
they're the same. Yeah, I agree, it's not the same.
(10:34):
The best leftovers are not the next day. The best
leftovers are at nine or ten o'clock that night when
everybody is kind of like just sitting there watching Elf
or something.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
What's up, Jesse, where do you guys go?
Speaker 7 (10:46):
We go to the Zenders every year.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Frank, do they have turkey or just the chicken that.
Speaker 8 (10:53):
They have, No, they have turkey, and their shrimp is
the best.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Noodles.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
She just closed her eyes.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
And nothing says Thanksgiving like noodles.
Speaker 7 (11:12):
Thundered noodles are the bat You haven't try.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Don't be mad at me for saying this, but that
place is way overrated. I feel like a curmudgeon.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
This one time, and you have hated on it for
seven years.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
We drove all the way up when I first moved
here years and years ago and started doing this radio show,
everybody kept talking telling me about it.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
You gotta go, you gotta go.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
We go up there and the freaking uh you know,
the the Christmas stuff was like a flea market, you
know what I mean, buying from the and theers.
Speaker 8 (11:44):
Was like, we do Slash Village and we do then there.
So because we have two kids, so it's just like
the black.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
A little Splash Village's the hotel that has the water park.
So all right, you know what I think? Happy, Happy Thanksgiving?
What's up, Geneva, what's going on?
Speaker 4 (12:04):
Hey?
Speaker 7 (12:05):
First time?
Speaker 4 (12:05):
Long time?
Speaker 9 (12:10):
Okay.
Speaker 8 (12:10):
So I live by roots Turks and we have wild turkeys.
Speaker 5 (12:15):
Okay, So the other day I was taking my.
Speaker 7 (12:17):
Daughter to work and someone had hit a turkey. I
dropped her off.
Speaker 5 (12:21):
Before I could come back around to get home, someone
else was scooping up the turkey.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
No wait a second, that's not going to be on
somebody's table, is it.
Speaker 6 (12:30):
I have no clue, but shall look out the fire cracks.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Do we know? Do we know? Can you eat a
wild turkey?
Speaker 1 (12:41):
I don't know if you can eat a wild turn?
Speaker 5 (12:44):
I don't know, but they definitely picked it up like
they wanted to.
Speaker 8 (12:47):
That was not a city worker, that was a regular
person with wow.
Speaker 5 (12:51):
Same idea for like deer, Like, how do y'all test
them to make sure they don't have anything?
Speaker 1 (12:56):
I don't, Well, don't people? I think you you know,
how do you test your out that you're gonna eat?
I don't think they test our count crog. I don't
think they do. I think they just say I think
they trust. That's why there's called recalls, miss fit Tony.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
To wrap up? What's that for? Thanksgiving? Topic? Here? What's
going on?
Speaker 6 (13:13):
To listen, little joy old clans, you got me in
on this first of while you're gonna hold me one
hundred dollars because Detroit gonna lose second leg? Will think
such a big deal about Thanksgiving. It chrismas all that.
It's just a big waste of time. Take your family
out to eat them with this she want to heat
(13:36):
if she want to, but give them a dad lie.
Don't make a big deal about It's no somebody gonna
get talking. They're gonna start fighting anyway.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah, it's true, It is true. Actually it's funny.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
I love the people that don't really care about Thanksgiving,
but they go out shopping that night, you know, which,
honestly is kind of fun to do it all together.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Doesn't it over? You don't do that anymore those days.
Speaker 6 (13:59):
I'm not a big deal about it. If you want
to go out to eat, there's no stipulations that need
to be followed. Listen, if y'all come and come, if not,
off the end, Mocho.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Hurry you come over, Tony that I should do a misfit, uh,
you know, Thanksgiving one year, like when the boys decide
that they've got their own families and they don't want
to come home to Chelsea and I and Chelsea's Lake
all depressed.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
I'm gonna say, we got kool aid.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Lady over there, misfit Victor right over there, Tony right
over there, Kevin.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
The loves can't come. Only you and Kevin can come
with me. The ladies can't come.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
I'm not hanging out with a bunch of sausages. We're
not having a sausage fast on Turkey Day.
