You know, I'm going to say, I wasn't really in the spirit of the holidays until today. Wow. This show did it for me. About time. It really did.

Dude, I'm already moved on to Christmas, so I'm glad you're catching up. Dude, I'm here. I'm here for it. It's Brooke and Jeffrey. We got a full hour for you with a lot of fun. We got some Thanksgiving, funny horror stories coming up. And Jeff's song, I am sorry. He nailed it.

It's so good. The amount of sound effects and background vocals he put into this. Yes. Wow. Yes. I mean, it will be the Thanksgiving anthem from here until eternity in my mind. So definitely stick around for that. And you know what?

We're in the spirit of giving. Let's read a comment. Yes. Mota said, am I the only person who likes Jeffrey's stories before he gives an answer to the shock collar questions? Oh. And to answer that, yes. You are the only one who likes those.

Come on. Always has something to do. Well, maybe he'll do it again today. Yeah, maybe. You know, I guess you're about to find out because the full hour starts right now. The listeners have spoken, and they want one thing. More Hero of the Week. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, and today's hero is a man in France named Olivier Marchant.

He recently bought a house and wanted to put a swimming pool in his backyard. I want to go visit. French house of a swimming pool? It's a chateau, I think. Oh, my apologies. So he started digging, and that's when he unearthed something incredible. What? Buried under his property were five solid gold bars and a stash of gold coins worth over $800,000.

Oh, my God. That's when you're so happy that the former owners were bank robbers. Yeah. You're like, thank God. The question is, when you find literal buried treasure in your, a property. What do you do? Well, Olivier did the noble thing and he contacted the

local authorities to report it. Oh, yeah. Please, you're going to come and be like, oh, yeah, we got to take it. Yeah, we got to take it. Well, he figured, you know, they'll study it, maybe find the historical significance behind it, determine the real value, and then they'd let him keep it since it's on his property, or

maybe a museum would pay him a huge sum so that they could display it at the Louvre. Why do I feel like this isn't going to work out for him? Well, turns out Olivier was alescrude. Oh. Because the discovered gold bars were only about 15 years old. Oh, yikes.

Oh, I thought they were ancient. That's what he thought. But, no, they had serial numbers on them. Oh, man. That could be traced to the person who made them, which come to find out was the previous owner of that house. Oh, so he, like, forgot? Yeah, but then, isn't there a finders' keepers rule in France? Well, you would think, nobody knows why they buried it in the backyard, but rightfully, the gold belonged to the original owner.

I'm sorry. If you forget to dig up your buried gold before you moved, you didn't really need it anyway. You don't hear that advice very often, do you? Well, it makes some money. You know exactly where it is. So Olivier was forced to give up the entire $800,000 treasure. and he ended up with nothing. I shouldn't say nothing.

He got his pool. I know. You don't give him one. It's saddest pool ever. And thanks to his terrible decision to do the right thing, that makes Olivier our new hero of the week. You should have just stole it. Come on, Olivier.

No call the cop. Now we're going to move on to the shock collar question of the day with a man who's about to drop some gold bars of trivia. Hey. Right on our faces. Ouch. Jake, go for it. Take it away.

Back in the 1970s, there was a popular TV sitcom called WKRP in Cincinnati. Oh. How do I know? Is this news radio, Jake? No, it's a different show. It's called News Radio. My bad. Oh, wait.

WKRP in Cincinnati followed the crazy antics of employees who worked at a fictional radio station called WKRP. Ah, we're wacky. And that show had one of the most iconic Thanksgiving episodes of all time called turkeys away, where the radio station does a promotional stunt, they drop live turkeys out of a flying helicopter, not realizing the turkeys themselves can't fly. Oh. So, turkeys fall. Dude, what a great episode.

How if I never see that. Chaos ensues. Television history was made. But it's not the only TV show to have an unforgettable Thanksgiving episode. That's why today we're doing a special cranberry classics edition of Blandia. You guys will say number 1 through 20. I'll give you a hint about the iconic Turkey Day TV moment. You just have to name the show or possibly a character to name Stay in the Game.

We'll start with the woman who also just now learned that turkeys can't fly. That's Alexis. Dirtyness? Seven. Number seven. Alexis, what famous CBS show had an episode titled Happy Slaps Giving where one character slapped the other one across the face to fulfill a slap. App bet.

All right. CBS show. I know what CBS is. I always turned out. CBS, not CVS. That's a drugstore. I don't know what channel this is. Yeah, someone can slap it as CBS is pretty common.

Yeah. I think the major networks are feeling very important after that comment. Yeah, sorry. Modern family. It's not a bad guess. I don't think that's CBS. Modern family. It's incorrect.

The CBS show is how I met your mom. mother stemmed from a bet between Barney and Marshall. Oh, that's kind of fun. We should make more slap bets around here. I would love slap bets. Brooke, it's your turn. Seven is off the board. Give me 15.

Brooke, which friend's character accidentally drops a full turkey on the floor during Thanksgiving dinner, creating chaos for the whole apartment? I need the first and last name of the character. No help from anyone else, please. The one who dropped it? The one who dropped it?

Is the person who drops it the same as who gets it stuck on their head? See, I don't think it is. Yeah, that's what I don't know. That's why I'm thinking, but I don't want to say who would get stuck on their head. Well, help, please. I feel like it's funnier if the person who drops the turkey is the one who would never drop the turkey. Yeah. That's why I feel like it's Monica.

Yeah, that's a good strat. But I don't know Monica's last name. I'll give you a hint. It's the same as Ross's last name. Oh, that's good. Oh, that's good. Oh, wow. I guess at the end of the show.

Oh, that's Chandler's last name. It at the end. Wait. I guess I can accept Monica Bing. Monica Bing That's incorrect. The wrong person the entire time. Yeah, Geller is Ross and Monica's last name.

Rachel Green. Jennifer Aniston's character. Notoriously clumsy in the show. Oopsie, I dropped the turkey. We're over to you. Seven and fifteen are off the board. Five. Jose, which Simpsons character gets a giant turkey

stuck on their head every Thanksgiving? Punch to everyone's horror. I should know this. It should be like, oh, duh. And that's what's weird because I don't remember this happening, but the only person that I could think would just be clumsy enough would be Homer. Don't forget his last name. Bing. Homer Simpson, Jake.

Homer Simpson is correct. I didn't realize so many TV shows used the turkey over the head trope. It's pretty funny. It's funny every time. One writer thought of it was. One of us should try it at our family's dinner just once this year. No, you couldn't really fit. I don't think it really works.

Think of how hot it would be. Ew. Do you mean sexy? Yeah. No. That's in a cooked turkey on your head would hurt. Okay, sure. My head definitely wouldn't fit in a cooked turkey.

But, Jeffrey, we're talking about Thanksgiving TV moments in history, and we're over to you now. Number nine. Name the show where the character Andy decides to cook Thanksgiving and puts fireworks in the stuffing thinks it'll lighten things up. What the heck? What show is that? What a dumb? concept. Hmm.

Andy should be a pretty strong hint, but I can't think of any shows featuring somebody named Andy. What about the Andy Griffith show? Go real old school. That could be. I feel like it'd be newer. I don't know if there's an Andy on this show, but I know one that has a lot of crazy antics with people doing wild things, sometimes illegal.

Maybe they confiscated some fireworks. The cops from Reno 911. Interesting. Jeffrey says Reno 911. One, it is an authoritative agency. The show is called Parks and Recreation. Andy is Chris Pratt's character. He's an idiot in the show.

In real life. And Jose, that means you have one today's edition of Plenty of Twenty. All right, well, Jose, you get the choose who get shocked. They're going to be singing, I'm a believer by Smash Mouth. Who's going to be? I got to go Brooke Geller. No. I thought love was only true.

And true in fairy tales, met for someone else, but not for me. That was your shock collar question of the day. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Less than a week now till Turkey Day. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Yay, food. Make sure to hit up our podcast, Brooke and Jeffrey, and also the Brooke and Jeffrey's second date one, wherever you get them.

If you have some extra time off next week, good chance to binge a bunch of our episodes. Yes, do it. But speaking of Turkey Day, I think we can all agree, the storebought gravy could never compare to the homemade version. Yeah, totally. Who's buying storebot? Yeah, that's right, Brooke? Yeah, that's right.

Definitely my family. We've always known this until now. What do you mean? Because the company Heinz just stepped up to the dinner plate with a new option called leftover gravy. Ew, don't tell me what a bottle, man. It's in an actual squeeze bottle. Like a regular condiment would be, and the color really puts the gray in gravy. Oh, my gosh.

Okay, I will say, though, the picture of the sandwich on the bottle, because that's the best part of Thanksgiving is not the dinner, but it's the next day when you get to make the leftover sandwich with the gravy, a little cranberry. That is specifically what it's designed for, for sandwiches. But it does look like an old bottle of stadium mustard that's been left out for a few years. God, why couldn't they change the color? I mean, it's one of those things where you think, food dyes are a good thing. Yeah.

But maybe we could add that. Bring back Red 40 for this one. Bring it for sure. Heinz, they insist it's delicious. And like most of the food products that we cover, it is available at Walmart exclusive. Of course. And to get one, you have to buy a jar version of it first for $1.88.

Then they'll include a limited edition Heinz leftover gravy kit with the squeezable version inside, along with a recipe card. If you want to try to make it yourself. Hey. Maybe if I didn't see it, and I just tasted it. Yeah. The bottle's empty. You have to put it in the bottle yourself? Yeah, you have to make it. What a peat in the butt.

Like, that's the whole part of the bottle is sweet. Yeah, let me go buy chores at Walmart. Last we checked, it was completely sold out. Oh, wow. People obviously think it's a fun gift, so you are welcome. And because I mentioned gift, I do need to give it a dank rating. Okay. Oh, my, dang.

That's a new word that you learned. Well, that's what we're doing. this season for all the gifts and we're calling Heinz squeezed bottle of leftover gravy giga tank okay there you go take your turkey and put some dank on it I'm glad you interpreted that for me I couldn't quite tell what he said yeah I know what it was going up right after this it's the radio segment that's teamed up with Oprah to surprise an entire live studio audience with free colonics oh yes you You get a probe, and you get a probe.

You get three probes. Darn it, I just had one yesterday. Good. Don't worry. She's covering all the taxes for it. During laser stories, this segment for me read, weird news stories around the globe, just like everyone else does, except we've got a laser. With other bottom busters just don't.

This first laser story is out of Florida. All right, Jeff. You know it's going to be good. The other night, a 39-year-old guy named Adam Peacock was pulled over after witnesses called 911 because he was was driving erratically. Hey, nobody got time for that. What are you doing, Peacock? You're not supposed to do that.

So, deputies had him get out of his car, and at first glance, it seemed like he was pretty loaded. Uh-oh. So they had Peacock to do a few field sobriety tests, and that's when he said there's a very good reason why he's not able to complete them. Oh. Apparently, he had a medical condition. What?

Where he had to drink a bunch? No, not that. Oh, okay. An actual medical condition. He even gave the cops an acronym for it, but struggled to pronounce it correctly. Uh-oh. I think I've heard of this. I mean, but who can really pronounce their diagnosis?

Yeah. I mean, I have that thing. You guys know what it's called, you know. Yeah. Yeah, sure. Just listen to the clip from the officer's body cam. Just follow it. Tip my finger with your eyes and your eyes only.

Don't move your head. I see the finger. Okay. Well, follow it. You got to track my finger. That's where I've always had a problem. What is my EFD? What is your EFD?

Oh, boy. Hyper deficit. One of those. We do believe you're impaired. Oh, he's so close to passing the test. He did try to go with ADD. Is that what he just tried to go? I can't focus on the finger that long.

It's too hard for me to follow. I'm distracted. I hear that smart. Yeah. I think he said EFD, though. But I heard hyperactive in there. I don't know. There was no H in EFD.

Well, whatever. I don't know. I don't know what he was saying. Whatever happened. Afterwards, Peacock was arrested. Ah. On suspicion of DUI. And he was told to see his doctor to find out what that acronym actually meant.

That's good. It's probably a good thing to know. It should probably print out like a little card for him just to hand to people. Yeah. I have this. Yeah. Don't drunk test me. This next laser story is out of Holiday Headquarters.

All-J. This is an exciting surprise. Cinebond just introduced a holiday wrapping paper that actually smells like cinnamon rolls. Oh, wow. This is so smart. Wait, is it edible? Wouldn't that be cool? Anything's edible if you try hard enough.

That's true. That's true. Good point, Jose. Now, it comes in a two-pack with one teal and one pink roll for just $8.99, and each is decorated with Synobon-themed icons and even includes 20% off coupon. that can be cut out of the paper. There we go. This is right up your alley. I don't want to buy this.

People who've had a chance to sniff it say they absolutely nailed the scent. Wow. It smells just like one of their ooey-gooey classic roles. Nice. So at this point, I can't wait for the news report to come out that people in Florida are being arrested for eating wrapping paper inside CBS. You know what's going to happen. Jeff, they'd smoke it. Oh, you're right.

My bad. This next laser story is out of. Celebrity Corner. Eminem takes his brand very seriously. Okay. So seriously that he's going after an Australian beach company called Swim Shady. That is kind of a rip-off of Slim Shady. Yeah, it's really funny.

Yeah, a little too close for his comfort. The rapper filed a petition with the U.S. Patent Office asking them to cancel Swim Shady's U.S. trademark. Because he thinks the name could lead the public to believe that he is associated with the company, which he's not. Okay. Maybe he wants to be if it's cool. Yeah. He should check it out.

But in a surprise move, Swim Shady isn't rolling over. Oh, really? The company says, quote, we are a grassroots Australian company that was born to protect people from the harsh outback sun.

We will defend our valuable intellectual property. Okay. They got good lawyers. That's why. They're protecting from the sun because they're shady. Is that what the... Yeah, maybe that's why.

Very, very clever. In other celebrity news, soon, Dolly Parton won't be one of the only celebrities with their own theme park. What? The stand-up comedian Nate Bargotsie is set to open his very own. No way.

Yes way, called Nate Land. Wow. He's Southern Boy. Is he in Tennessee as well? Yeah, and this isn't a joke. I can't believe this. Nate has partnered with the people behind Legoland and Nottsbury Farm to make this happen in Nashville.

You go down a roller coaster and then a punchline hits you in the face. The irony is he has the funniest joke about taking your kids at Disneyland to. young and now he's going to have to live his own theme park jokes. I love it. What exactly is the theme of Nate Land? Yeah. Well, it's hard to describe. They say that the entire park will reflect the unique

humor and heart of the comedian behind it. Okay. Yeah, that's vague. I don't know. I mean, it sounds, I mean, it's pretty vain to name a whole theme park after you. Yeah. Dolly did it. Come on. And she is an icon. She is. Yeah. So I mean, I don't know that he's on the same level as

I don't even know him. It's probably going to be a theme park with no swearing allowed, because he's a clean comedian. He never says curse words on stage. So, you get on the, oh gosh, ride. Yeah. Also, alongside the rides, there will be retail,

dining, and even a possible Nate Hotel. Oh. How is there not a comedy club? It would be so awesome if they hired all of the people that work there were struggling comedians. Oh, yeah. Like, oh, I'm just in town for the weekend,

working the rides. I got a show. So once that opens, make sure to book your tickets to Nate Land. Let's go to your final laser story out of the Pet Palace. I am not joking when I say this, but researchers believe raccoons may be inching closer to becoming pets. Oh, yeah. Some people keep them as pets. I had a friend who had a pet skunk, for gosh sakes.

Really? Yeah. What are you doing? It's sprays. You can take the sack out. You can have it removed. Oh. So it's not good.

Anything could be a pet. Oh, I guess that's true. But a study from the University of Arkansas, of course it's from the University of Arkansas, they found raccoons are physically changing in response to their interactions with humans, and by physically changing, they mean their faces are evolving to look cuter. Dude, that's for sure. You've seen a baby raccoon? They're so cute.

Oh, God. They're so cute. Just warm your way into our lives so you can eat the scraps right off the table instead of when they're in the garbage can. Plus, they're dumpster diving less and becoming. less disease written. Oh, well, good job. That's a big cell. Good for them.

I think there's part of the human population that could probably benefit from that. One researcher says once wild animals start spending time in the proximity of people, they become a little less afraid and perhaps even start showing physical signs of domestication. And raccoons aren't the only animals

that this is happening to. Oh, my God. Say otter. Please say otter. Please say otter. Foxes and mice that live in urban areas also are having softer facial features. I have seen a cute mouse before. Yeah, they are cute.

But let's not make this a new TikTok trend. These animals do not, let's be clear, they do not make great pets. And it's even illegal to own them in some areas. So. There's the buzzkill of the room. Yeah, I think it's a little late. It's already on TikTok sometimes. Yeah, it's illegal to own

animal, you know. It's going to get worse. If you're still stuck taking care of that turtle that your kid desperately needed 15 years ago. Oh my God. They live forever. It's still alive and now it's your problem. Just know. there's a worst pet that kids could demand in the future. This guy.

Okay. Well, no, hey, and if that's happening, just imagine what a pet raccoon would try to do to your leg. It would not be pretty. I actually never thought of that. I know. This guy's a dream, and that's how it means laser stories has come to an end for the day. We'll do it again.

Same time on Monday. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. When you think of the most stressful, dramatic holidays of the entire year, you've got Valentine's Day up there for sure Yeah Flag Day That one's always rough What really?

Where's the pressure on flag day? What flag do I put up? Oh, I see Do I salute with this hand or that hand? High salute or lower salute Always supposed to salute with the same hand, Jeff. I always forget Okay

And of course, National Swallow your Corn Dog Whole Day Oh Unsurprisingly easy for me. I was going to say. Yeah. But somewhere high up on the list has got to be Thanksgiving.

Oh my gosh. Yeah. The travel alone is stressful. Dude, I'm just singing to the dishes. Yeah, just the Super Bowl of weird family drama. I'm not just saying that. It's actually been confirmed because a new survey had people share their most hilarious

Turkey Day mishaps and you won't believe what one grandma rubbed on the family turkey one year. God. I don't know that I want my imagination to go anywhere else. Don't let your imagination do anything, Brooke. I'm just going to tell you when you hear it coming up right after this. We often think we know our type in dating.

Tall, funny, a certain job. But the research shows we're usually not the best predictors of who will actually make us the happiest. As we often say on the Happiness Lab, our minds lie to us about all kinds of stuff. And that definitely includes the kinds of things we need to be happy in a relationship. That's why it helps to stay curious. On Bumble, features like shared interests and prompts make it easy. to notice right on someone's profile initial sparks of compatibility, like a shared love of cooking or the same nostalgic TV shows. Shared interests and prompts let you showcase your

personality right on your profile and connect with people who get your vibe. And with photo and ID verification, you can feel confident the person you're talking to is real, so you can date with a bit more confidence. When you treat dating as exploration, instead of sticking to a rigid type, you open yourself up to happier, more meaningful connections. So maybe your type isn't tall, dark, and mysterious. Maybe it's loves podcast as much as you do. Stay open, stay curious, and let yourself be surprised. Download Bumble today. Hi, Kyle. Could you draw up a quick document with the basic business plan? Just one page as a Google Doc and send me the link. Thanks. Hey, just finished drawing up that quick one page business plan for you. Here's the link.

And like a lot of guys, I haven't been to the doctor in many years.

I'll be asking the questions we probably should be asking, but aren't. Because guys usually don't go to the doctor unless a piece of their face is hanging off or they've broken a bone. Depends which bone. Well, that's true. Every week, we're breaking down the unique world of men's health, from testosterone and fitness to diets and fertility and things that happen in the bedroom.

So check out the mailroom on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your favorite shows. What up, y'all? It's your boy, Kevin on stage. I want to tell you about my new podcast called Not My Podcasts. best moment where I talk to artists, athletes, entertainers, creators, friends, people I admire

who had massive success about their massive failures. What did they mess up on? What is their heartbreak? And what did they learn from it? I got judged horribly. The judges were like, you're trash. I don't know how you got on the show. Boo. Somebody had tomatoes. I'm kidding. But if they had tomatoes, they would have thrown the tomatoes. Let's be honest. We've all had those moments we'd rather forget. We bumped our head. We made a mistake. The deal felt through, we're embarrassed, we failed, but this podcast is about that and how we made it through. So when they sat me down, they were kind of like, we got into the small talk and they were just

like, so what do you got? What? What ideas? And I was like, oh, no. What? Check out Not My Best Moment with me, Kevin on stage on the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcast, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcast. Ah, family.

Aw. Yeah. Sorry. Wait, did that hurt you? I said that wrong. I meant, Ah, family! It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

Every holiday season, you're obligated to spend time in the same house as your relatives. And sometimes even talk directly to them. I mean, we like most of them. Do we? Nothing dramatic or traumatizing ever happens when you're around your relatives, right?

You just got to add a little alcohol. Yeah. And then all the drama goes. Oh, for sure. Yeah, that's true. No, it seems every year something is bound to go horribly, horribly wrong. Yeah. Which is why a new survey asked people to share their funniest, most dramatic Thanksgiving mishaps.

Oh, my God. These lists are always fun, so let's get right to your first one. Someone said, one year, my grandma ran over herself with her own SUV. What? I'm sorry, what? She was getting food out of the back of her car and put it in neutral instead of Park. Oh, my gosh.

It slowly rolled over her, and nobody noticed until they heard the car finally bump up against the house. Oh, no. I feel like this is something Alexis has to work to, you know? Like hitting yourself with your own car is pretty impressive. It's like a future goal. Yeah. You can still get the insurance money after that, right?

Can't you? I don't think so. I don't think you're covered under you. Yeah, you sue yourself. Yeah. It's worth a shot. Now, I noticed nobody asked if the grandma was okay. Well, I hope they wouldn't share the story if it was the end of grandma's life.

She died immediately. Just a piece of mind, turns out she was fine. But now she isn't allowed to go outside alone anymore on the holidays. Yeah. Well, that's also true. The kids are supposed to go get the groceries from the trunks. She sold your license, though. Don't worry. Next up, my aunt wasn't able to come to Thanksgiving one year because she got busted that morning at a grocery.

store trying to shoplift a turkey. Wow! How do you shoplift a giant bird? You put it in your bra. Well, for you, I mean that would be the only solution. You're going uniboub giant uniboub in the front. Okay. The craziest part is our

family already had one at the time of her arrest. It was literally coming out of the oven while she was stealing it. But my aunt wanted another. Okay. Two turkeys, I see. One for the road. Yeah. These are the funniest most dramatic Thanksgiving mishaps that people

had to suffer through and they shared them in this survey. God, I love that the first two involved jail time and a really terrible accident. Yeah, let's see if it gets even worse because this one says it was my first time hosting dinner and somehow I caught the turkey on fire.

Oh no. Yeah, that happens. She says I ran out of my apartment with the turkey in the pan, still on fire. Well, at least it's not in the apartment anymore. And I proceeded to without thinking, toss the whole thing into the dumpster, which also caught fire. The problem isn't the bird. It's the grease.

We ended up only eating sides that night, but it's remembered as being our literal dumpster fire Thanksgiving. That's kind of special. I like how she set the bar so high on her first Thanksgiving, too. Here's a nice short one. It says one year, my grandma accidentally rubbed the turkey with dish soap instead of oil. It might have been one of the funniest, but most upsetting things I've ever witnessed. Hey, the dawn soap does clean birds, like the ducks. Oh, yeah, they show that on the air.

But that's when the feathers are on. Ah, you're right. It's a good point. It probably makes a little bit of a difference. It's why you can never store your dish soap in the same type of thing that you store your oil. I never thought about that before. Another one says, I thought it'd be funny prank to put a rubber chicken inside the oven on Thanksgiving, assuming my mom.

would open it and see it, and she'd laugh and laugh. That's innocent, but why she's going to put the turkey in? Yeah. Like, wait a minute. 13-year-old me didn't realize that normal adults usually preheat an oven before placing the turkey inside. Oh, no. Spoiler, no one laughed. Oh, you ruined in a hot oven?

I bet it smelled great, though. These are the funniest, most dramatic Thanksgiving mishaps that people have ever had when celebrating with family. Another one says, my four-year-old sister at the time. was sitting next to our grandma at the table. After taking a bite of something, she said, my tongue hurts. Okay. To which my grandma replied, oh, we'll come over here and let me kiss it

to make it feel better. It's weird. It's your tongue, but okay. Wait a minute. You understand the sentiment behind it. Yeah, I get the sentiment. I guess, yeah. The moment their lips touched, my sister vomited directly into my grandma's mouth. Oh, my God,

what is happening? My dad burst into laughter and my grandma ran to the bathroom seconds after she stood up a two by two foot square chunk of ceiling caves in and falls directly onto her chair

Wait! What is this a cartoon? Did the vomit just save grandma's life? Somehow my barfie little sister was the hero of the night. Wow! Wow! I still don't think she was. I'm still on over the grandma kissing the tongue. I know. This is really gross. I think I'd rather be hit by the ceiling than get

vomit in my mouth. I don't know. I don't know. I think it was all bad. I think that might be the follow-up to the dish soap turkey story. Oh, that makes that's why someone got sick. It may have been the end. Finally, time for one more Thanksgiving tragedy says I was at my uncle's house for Thanksgiving. His wife decided to play their wedding video for everybody right after dinner since it was their anniversary weekend. I mean, I guess, but you don't want to sit through somebody else's wedding video, whatever.

You better have a lot of wine ready for it. So she looked for half an hour to locate the videotape and gather. a group of 25 to watch it in the living room. Okay. In the video, right as she's starting to walk down the aisle, yes. The video goes fuzzy, then cuts to NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt's funeral.

What? Apparently, my uncle Joe used that tape to record Dale Earnhardt's funeral. It's probably the only copy they have. It's not like it's digital. Yeah, but it's on a VHS.

Yeah. It's for sure. Everybody froze in complete shock and I started laughing. It felt like I was in a sitcom, but it was real life. Oh my God. So funny. I wonder if they stayed and watched Dale Earnhardt's funeral. Somebody didn't even realize it was the funeral. They were like, gosh, you look really different on your wedding day. Those were the funniest most dramatic Thanksgiving mishaps. People have had to suffer through. We got a phone tab coming up right after this. Is there any tradition more sacred than messing with a bride on the week of her wedding.

Oh, my God. Is that a tradition now? At least not on our show. That's as big as it gets. We've done over a dozen of these and only been able to air four. Because the others are still angry about what happened. Something borrowed, something blue. We're going to try again today.

And this time we're going to replace the efficient with a backup person that has a bad case of dope ticulitis. Is this the fifth one? Are we airing the fifth? If you don't know what dope ticulitis is, you're about to hear it in your phone tap right now. It's another phone tap. A weekday morning's on the 20s. Hello?

Is this the Cassie that's getting married this weekend? Yes. Soon to be Mrs. Cassie Grew? Um, yes. Who is it? Congratulations first. But my name is Henry Wilde. I'm from Sik Fiscence.

Oh, okay. Hi. Hi, you know, look, I know you're supposed to have Mark a fishery at your wedding this Saturday. Is that correct? Um, yes. What's going on? Well, unfortunately, he had an emergency, and his cat actually got his tongue. What?

Sounds worse than it is. He's going to be okay. He just may a rea, a may not, a fricka, fricking not be able to be there Saturday. Oh my God. Yeah, he, a ricket won't be there. What are you doing right now? Well, I'm trying to tell you about the replacement that we're giving you. No, no.

It's me. I'm going to be your efficient now. What are you, what is happening? Wait, with me filling in for the wedding? Brickle-brick of what I was talking about earlier. Your voice, what is happening? What are you doing? Oh, you heard that?

Yes, I heard it. Oh, no, that's just a thing. It's not going to affect anything. It's just a little. What thing? It's a, what's it called? What a fricker, what's it called? It's just a thing.

What thing? What is that? It's called doptychulitis. Have you ever heard of it? No. I'm not, I'm not really interested. I'm not either. It's one of those things that happens like once every few years.

It's kind of like hiccups. Like musical hiccups. I get them. Comes in and out. Maybe a day, maybe two, maybe three. A wreck a fricka, frick up, maybe three days in time. And then it's gone. Oh, my God.

I'm sure I'll be fine for the wedding. you worry. Are you joking right now? Because I don't want anybody joking this close to my wedding. I've actually done over a hundred weddings myself. Seriously. And this dope ticulitis thing is so minor and it's never, ever once happened during a set, a wreck, a, a rick, fricking ceremony. Frika, freak a thing I do. You need to stop, okay? You need to stop talking right now. I would love to stop a rot, stop lob and drop it. I'd love to stop, but I can't. I don't. I don't care. I don't care if this is some sort of condition or you are joking or whatever. You are not officiating my wedding. We have had this on the books for a very long time.

Who else can I talk to? I have no control over what happened with Mark and his cat and the tongue and all that. I don't care. I wait, wait, a wick, a fricka, freaka wish it never happened. Stop. Don't you wish? This is ridiculous. Things never happened? Put me on me. the phone with someone else. Put me on the phone. Put me on the phone. Put me on the... What are you doing?

Revenge! Jason DeRulo! You understand that my wedding is this weekend, okay? I can't have somebody breaking out into song or rapping. Whatever the hell you are doing is not okay. So we need to fix the problem right now. Okay. I hear you. It's your wedding. I want to help you with whatever you want. And did you hear that, by the way? I just went. Five seconds without do. Frick-up, freaking, fricking, brick, fricking. Must it on the beat.

Shut up. I don't care. I don't care. You know, she doesn't care. I'm hanging up the phone. No, your bridesma, Candice, would hate it if you hung up right now. What? His whole pretty phone call.

What? Yeah, I'm her favorite DJ. Well, radio DJ, but not like a real. Oh, my God. I hate you so much. I hate you so much right now. This is actually Jose from Brick and Jeffrey in the morning. We're doing a phone tap on you.

you. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. And I don't care how much you hate me. I love a lot. Break it down. I love you. So, Brooke and Jeffrey. I'm going to give me a freaking heart attack. This is not cool. Wake up every morning with phone tabs. Weekday mornings on the 20s. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Over the years, we've had a lot of memorable, quirky listeners appear on this show.

It's not quite as fun or it's memorable of a name, but his unique hobby, that for sure is. Yes. It's one of the weirdest things we've heard in a while. By far. And we're wondering if maybe it had an impact on why he hasn't got another date. Uh-oh. And you're going to hear it in your brand new second date update featuring Kevin himself. That's coming up next. I'll remember it with a horn.

Hi, Kyle, could you draw up a quick document with the basic business plan? just one page as a Google Doc, and send me the link. Thanks. Hey, just finished drawing up that quick one-page business plan for you. Here's the link.

But there was no link. There was no business plan. It's not his fault. I hadn't programmed Kyle to be able to do that yet. My name is Evan Ratliff. I decided to create Kyle, my AI co-founder, after hearing a lot of stuff like this from OpenAI CEO Sam Aldman. There's this betting pool for the first year that there's a one-person, a billion-dollar company, Which would have been like unimaginable without AI and now will happen. I got to thinking, could I be that one person? I'd made AI agents before for my award-winning podcast, Shell Game. This season on Shell Game, I'm trying to build a real company with a real product run by fake people.

Oh, hey, Evan. Good to have you join us. I found some really interesting data on adoption rates for AI agents and small to medium businesses. Listen to Shell Game on the IHeart Radio app or wherever you get your podcasts. On the podcast Health Stuff, we are tackling all the health questions that keep you up at night.

On Health Stuff, we're talking about health in a different way. It's not only about what we can do to improve our health. But also what our health says about us and the way we're living.

Or our in-depth analysis of how incredible mangoes are. Oh, it's hard to explain to the rest of the world that your mangoes are fine because mangoes are incredible, but like you don't even know. You don't know. You don't know.

It's going to be a fun ride. So tune in. Listen to health stuff on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey there, Dr. Jesse Mills here. I'm the director of the men's clinic at UCLA Health, and I want to tell you about my new podcast called The Mailroom.

And I'm Jordan, the show's producer. And like a lot of guys, I haven't been to the doctor in many years. I'll be asking the questions we probably should be asking, but aren't. Because guys usually don't go to the doctor unless a piece of their face is hanging off or they've broken a bone. Depends which bone. Well, that's true. Every week, we're breaking down the unique world of men's health from testosterone.

gastroin and fitness to diets and fertility, and things that happen in the bedroom. You mean sleep? Yeah, something like that, Jordan. We'll talk science without the jargon and get you real answers to the stuff you actually wonder about. It's going to be fun, whether you're 27, 97, or somewhere in between. Men's health is about more than six packs and supplements. It's about energy, confidence, and connection. We don't just want you to live longer.

We want you to live better. So check out the mailroom on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your favorite shows. What up, y'all? It's your boy, Kevin on stage. I want to tell you about my new podcast called Not My Best Month, where I talk to artists, athletes, entertainers, creators, friends, people I admire who had massive success about their massive failures. What did they mess up on? What is their heartbreak? And what did they learn from it?

I got judged horribly. The judges were like, you're trash. I don't know how you got on the show. Boo, somebody had tomatoes. I'm kidding. But if they had tomatoes, they would have thrown the tomatoes. Let's be honest. We've all had those moments we'd rather forget.

We bumped our head. We made a mistake. The deal fell through. We're embarrassed. We failed. But this podcast is about that and how we made it through. So when they sat me down, they were kind of like, we got into the small talk. And they were just like, so what do you got?

What ideas? And I was like, oh, no. What? Check out Not My Best Moment with me, Kevin on stage, on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcast. Second Date Update. On the phone right now, we have a return caller who's more than just a man. He's an artistist.

You may remember Kevin from a previous second date call where he decorates the inside of his fridge as part of a TikTok trend. Fritchscape Kevin That's right Fritzcaper Couldn't be more thrilled to have him back on the show Kevin real quick

Could you remind us What happened the last time You were on with us For a second date Well I had a girl around my place And they ran out toilet paper for her

Oh yeah You'd used it in this sculpture That was inside your fridge Right Yep she didn't like that I thought of using the toilet paper Out of fridge Okay

Okay Well cold toilet paper actually Pro tip By the way Yeah. But not for those reasons. You can't ruin art just for the bathroom. Exactly.

Some people are particular about lots of weird things. So obviously, she wasn't your match. But you're back today because maybe you found yourself a new romantic interest. Is that right? Yeah. Okay. Did she get to see your fridge-scaping skills? No, actually, that TikTok trend kind of died out now.

Oh, you're not doing it? You only go with the trends. You don't do it because you like it? No, yeah, I got a new thing. I'm so curious, what's your new hobby? Do you guys know microwave mosaics? No. Microwave mosaics.

Sounds like it shouldn't be metal. Yeah. What is that? So what I do is I rearrange the leftover stains into abstract pieces, the splatter patterns, like, they tell a story now. Wow. The splatter patterns inside your microwave. You turn that into like a scene. What do you mean?

Do you like paint it onto, like, what it looks like you painted onto a canvas or what? No, I just, I'll leave, like, soup in there way too long, and then I take some pictures of it. Oh. Did that one of totally earned you an A in one of my art classes in college? Right? Back to this new girl. What's her name? Her name is Audrey.

Okay. And how did you meet Audrey? I met her at Michaels when I was picking up some art supplies. Okay. So she's a crafty girl, too. Shared interests. Yeah, it was pretty awesome. Like, I was picking up a jumbo of googly eyes, and she was getting it.

acrylic paint, and, uh, you know, we just started talking about art. Yeah, the group of the eyes is a conversation starter at checkout for sure. I think that's so fun. Like, art is so important, you know, especially to your life. So that's cool that you bonded over that immediately. Very true. Yeah, just asked her if she wanted to grab a drink sometime and she gave me her number. So, oh, hey.

Wow, there you go. Isn't that wild, like Michael's the hookup spot? I know. It feels like fate intervened in the arts and crafts section. Michael's is a good place to find a girl. I mean, hot tip, make sure you have the app and the coupons because you could really save somebody a lot of money. All right. Okay, you lost me there, bro.

It's like the granny tip. Where did you and Audrey go for your date? Well, the date sort of didn't happen. I feel bad about kind of how it went down, you know. What happened? Well, I had a reservation at this bar, and we were supposed to meet up there. Okay. You know, I even brought my whole portfolio to show some of my microwave mosaics to her

because I thought, like, she's an artist. She's going to appreciate this. Okay. I get there first, and I'm waiting for her. 15 minutes goes by 20, 30. She's not there. And then after one hour, she finally shows up. Oh, she does.

That's shocking. No apology. I mean, I'm super upset at this point. Like, I'm, like, internally fuming. I just decide, you know what, I'm leaving. Whoa. Some of those artist's creative types, not as, like, on schedule. But being late, the no apology.

I mean, it doesn't mean it's excusable, but at least have some empathy. Like, was there a conversation that happened at all? I mean, it was just like, hi, she said, and I was like, bye. What? Oh. Wait. You didn't explain why you were mad? Which is an hour late.

I know, but you didn't even give her a chance to apologize. Like, she literally said hi, and then you said bye. You got up and laughed? What if the apology was coming? Well, I didn't hear anything, so I would decide. Oh, that actually makes it a different. You have to wait until at least after dinner to get the apology. And then you can storm off.

Are you regretting that? Because you're calling us to get her back, right? I mean, that's the thing. Like, that's why I'm calling because she did. me after the fact and was like, what you did was rude and you have no idea what I'm going through.

Oh. Oh. I mean, she's going through? It was rude. I will say, like, I mean, her showing up that late is also rude, but like, your behavior. Without any texts. Yeah. No. She didn't even say, like, hey, I'm running late. That's even extra rude. Yeah. So then we could

what if she just got a huge car accident and you left before she got to tell you. Well, if her fingers still work, she could at least be like, hey. I mean, did you ever find out? No, at this point, like, I reached out, and, like, I don't know if I'm, like, blocked or what, what not, because there's just, like, no response. Oh, man.

And I don't know who side to be on because they both were kind of balanced rudeness. Yeah. Yeah, they both have, I mean, it could have worked it out better. Yeah, it's one of those situations that I think we could maybe fix, honestly. Yeah. It sounds like it went from zero to 100 way too quick in. frustration. So, Kevin, do you still want to, like, try again to get another date with her out of this? Is that your hope? Yeah. Yes. Yeah. Like, just like a redo. Yeah. And how are you going to feel if she doesn't

apologize still? Oh. Oh. I think there's question I hadn't thought about. Okay. Maybe you can think about that one. She doesn't get to see his microwave mosaic portfolio. And that's going to be her loss. Dude. I bet the tomato soup one is going to be one of the faves. Have you seen it? Do you follow me? No, you got to DM some of the photos, though, over to us. Just on Brooks profile, though. Okay. And the oatmeal, because that oatmeal always explodes. You know what I mean?

It really does. This is a totally different segment of the microwave mosaic art breakdown. Yeah. We'll do that on your fun little side podcast. Yeah. All right. But now we got to stick to the second date update, hopefully get some answers for Kevin and find out why Audrey didn't show up for an hour. Yeah.

I hope we're not prying. I hope we are We'll do it with your second date update right after this Second Date Update You know a true artist Is able to move between mediums Like Picasso did When he shifted from his blue period

Into surrealism I don't know that that's correct Oh really Brooke Technically that was not the right age period Nobody likes that person Brooke You're not backing down The point is, our listener, Kevin, was able miraculously to move from fridgecapes into microwave mosaics. Yes.

Show me those splatter patterns. He takes photos of abstract soup splatter in his microwave and posts them online. Dude, you should try butter. That stuff explodes like crazy in the microwave. Kevin, she's telling you you're doing your art wrong. No, I'm not. I'm excited about it, Jeff. First really inspired.

You're telling him how to do it. Sorry for suggestions, Jeff. I will never suggest anything ever again. It is an aggressive suggestion. Kevin wears his emotions on his sleeve. And if I'm reading him right today, he's feeling a little guilty. Wow. Way to imply how he's feeling, Jeff.

Okay. Maybe you should. Kevin, am I in the ballpark? Yes. This is right. Kevin, we may be having an internal struggle here. Can we call you back tomorrow? No, we're good.

We're good. Jeff and I are good. The issue is Kevin's date showed up an hour late. And when she arrived, she said hi, Kevin just said bye and walked away. Which I don't blame you. Like, wait in an hour is, oh, God. I can't believe you did that. Afterwards, though, she did send a text saying, you were rude.

You don't even know what I'm going through right now. So that made Kevin feel like, oops, maybe he messed up. Which is kind of a good life lesson, you know? You just don't know what people are going through ever. Oh, yeah. I mean, as soon as we get her on the phone and we get you on as well, are you wanting to apologize? Or lay into her.

Oh. I do want to hear what she has to say, which is what I didn't do in the first place. Okay. And also, I really want her to see my portfolio. Right, because she's an art lover, too. We get to see anything. We want to see it, too. Yeah, we do.

I'm ready to buy a piece. But, anyway. That is not the only one who thought. I can't get into the mind of the artist right now. I mean, there are a lot of horny, weird men in our way. I'll say that. Yeah, I'm just going to call Audrey, and hopefully we can move past the mental images going on in my head right out. All right.

Hello? Hi, is this Audrey? Yeah, this is her. I'm so excited to talk to her. Yeah, we're all excited to talk to you, Audrey, because you're on a radio show right now called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Welcome to the show, Audrey. Hi.

Good morning. Yeah, no, I'm all set, guys. Thank you so much. No, no, no. Wait, wait, wait, please don't hang up because... It's not a telemarketer call. We're doing a segment from our show. This is called a Second Date update.

Have you ever heard of that before? Uh, I guess, how did you get my number? We have a listener named Kevin who says he went out, well, he almost went out on a date with you recently. Oh, God. I know. I know it wasn't a good interaction. We know that. Yeah, no.

I mean, did he even tell you what he did? Yeah. Uh, then he walked out. The full story that we heard is you had planned a date at a restaurant. You were running about an hour late. There wasn't a whole lot of communication. And so when you arrived, he just decided to get up and leave. Like you said hi, he said bye.

Yeah, I mean, like, I showed up, and he never even asked me why I was late. He never checked to see if I was okay, you know, if I was going through something. Right. Yeah, that's interesting. And why didn't you text him at all? Like, oh, my God, it's 15 minutes late. I should probably say something. Like, I was, you know, I was going through something, and I just, it wasn't, I was going to get there when I was going to get there.

That's understandable. And Kevin has looked back on the entire experience, and he feels like he messed up. that's kind of why we're calling now. Okay. Well, what if I told you guys that one of my parents had passed away that day? Oh, my God. I am so sorry. That's terrible.

Yeah, I mean, I tried to pull myself together after I had like an hour to process it. What? And I made my way over to the restaurant. And then I walked in, he was just so cold to me. Oh, no. I can't even believe that you even, yeah, showed up. I mean, maybe you were just in shock. I would only need 30 minutes to grieve personally.

But for most people, yes, that is, that's a lot. Well, I mean, in my defense, it didn't, they didn't really die. What? But, like, they could have. And at least then, like, he could have asked me what he should have asked me what was going on. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, hold on. No, she didn't say someone died. She said her parents died.

That's true. Your parents didn't die? Well, I mean, I said, what if my parents died? Like, if that was a scenario. Oh, that was a theoretical situation you threw at us? I just felt really terrible. Yeah, that was an emotional roller coaster. All of our work's sake for you, Audrey.

I didn't know we're playing What If. Let's emphasize the What If maybe stronger next time because I definitely didn't hear it. Well, I mean, I was trying to just give an example of how you don't know what's going on in somebody's life, you know? Okay. Yeah. You went with a really dark example. Yeah. Can you just tell us what was going on with you?

I mean, we don't mean to pry personally, but I just need a recovery. Unless it's sadder than that. if I want to know. What was the real reason that you were in hourly? I don't know. Maybe if Kevin were to ask me, then maybe I'd answer him, but I don't think it's really any of your business. Okay. Well, that works. Sure. It actually, it works perfectly because Kevin is on the phone on the other line right now waiting to talk to you. Hi. He almost felt like the worst person in the world with that parent thing. Yeah. Kevin. What did happen? I did. I just I still don't really understand. I get it that maybe you are going through something. You know, I feel bad that I didn't give you a chance to explain yourself. She's still there. I mean, well, what if I told you that my parents passed?

What? You already did that. Stop with the what if. Yeah. He heard that part, Audrey. Wait, you were here the whole time? Yes. Yes, on hold.

We have to explain it very well. He was being quiet. So he knows that that's not true. Yeah. so why were you really late if you really want to know I kind of just forgot about it oh

okay wait what's worse the parents passing or her forgetting about the days it's pretty close why is there no in between can we just lie there's something else I think forgetting is forgivable

I don't know I forget stuff all the time if I don't put it in my calendar you have to write stuff down too totally but you got to be honest about it. Well, because he had, he had texted me, you know, where are you? And then that's when I realized, like, oh, God, I forgot. I'm supposed to go on a day with that curly-haired art guy. And I realized, and then I tried to get ready. And, you know, like, where we were meeting wasn't super close. So I needed, like, time to drive. And I got over there. And, you know, I show up. And then all of a sudden, he's just like,

bye. And I was like, okay, you didn't even give me a chance to say anything. What were you going to say? I mean, I don't know. I was going to say something about my parents. I don't know. You were going to lie to him. She's going to say, what if first, though? Yeah. She hears everything up.

What if I told you? Yeah. Kevin, how are you feeling hearing all of this? I mean, I'm just kind of like wondering. What if I told her when I was about ready to storm off, like, that I had to go because of my parents' funeral. Okay, let's not. Okay.

Why are we both throwing hypotheticals at each other? Like, really dark ones. Yeah, now I just feel like you're being petty. I'm just using the example that you use Audrey for me So if I'm being petty, then that's your fault Oh God Okay, no, that's not no Those aren't even close to being the same

Exactly That is the literal shame Yeah They're doing it again though They're trying to out petty each other again Just like they did that first night I know the thing about a successful relationship Is somebody has to be willing to admit

That they were wrong and they messed up In order to move forward And you both kind of messed up in your own right, right? It's powerful to apologize. No, I mean, you're right. Ooh, I like that, bro. You're right. Someone needs to apologize. I'm going to give her three seconds to do it.

Oh, all right. Audrey Ball's in your core. Do you want to toss out an apology? I think you know that it's going to take me at least an hour. Oh, that was funny. She's joking. I don't think so. Oh, really?

There's definitely some nuggets of truth to it. And I can't believe, like, that I was actually going to show you my microwave mosaic. Like, I've never even shown that to another woman in person. Oh, you were special. Audrey, did you even know he had those? He told me about it. He wouldn't shut up about it. Oh, okay.

Yikes. Well, shoot. Well, I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Bye. Whoa. Oh, wait. Is that he doesn't want a date? Kevin, you can't say bye because I haven't even asked Audrey yet if she would like to go out on another date with you.

Because, Audrey, if you're up for it, we would pay for it. Oh, wow. Wow, look at that. I just got a text that I think my parents had. Oh, God. Oh, no. The timing. Yeah, that's it.

This is so bad. The information to deliver via text. Kevin, at this point, do you want to check in with her and see how she's doing? I mean, are you okay? Kevin, she was being sarcastic with you there. Her parents aren't dead. Oh. Kevin.

Oh, my God. All right. Kevin, I think you stood in front of you. the microwave too many times. Yeah. Oh, that was an art. We're never having two artists on the same call ever again. This is too messy.

Yeah, Kevin, you need to date an accountant. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And that whole call really symbolizes the state of dating today. You think? It's that bad? The degree of pettiness where you just can't let the other person win or feel good about anything. No mistake will ever go unpunished in the dating world.

Oh, God. That is a bleak outlook, Jeff. I thought you were going to come with something more positive and hopeful. She completely forgot about the date and then tried to gaslight him and make him feel guilty by inventing dead parents. The thing is I think that's so understandable to forget. Like she actually put effort into still making it there. And then she made it worse. I guess.

But for me, I'd be like, oh, if I'm not important enough for you to remember our first date, if you're not excited about it, then I'm obviously not important. Is showing up an hour late really putting in a lot of effort? I mean, I think it's forgivable to forget a date. Like, especially a date of a person that you had a brief interaction with. You know, if you don't write it down, how do you remember? I think that she could have just been honest. Too late for lies. That's lame.

There's another theoretical out there that you just can't work with anymore. Would have been great, but it didn't happen. I don't know. If this doesn't make you feel optimistic about love, what will. Yeah, go on a date today, guys. I mean, his microwave mosaics were pretty uplifting. That was. I'll say that.

I'd for sure feel inspired. So make sure to go find our podcast. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, home of the second date update on Apple, IHeart, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. YouTube, too. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. I'm sure you've all noticed my last few performances have just been off. Really? I don't think so.

I thought you've been doing a great job. Yeah, don't pander to me. I know. Something wasn't right. So I had to go to the doctors to figure it out. Uh-oh. They ran a bunch of tests. turns out my throat is too powerful.

Oh, God. So the doc, he prescribed me a couple of things. One, we govi for my throat. We govi for my throat, trying to tone that back. And then, O-Zempic for a different body part of mine. That also needs to be reduced. So embarrassing. I like how the throat doctor is checking two things on you.

Yeah, he's thorough. They go hand in it. I did not even want to have to say it out loud, but you all made me. Are you happy? I'm the only man in the world with one particular body part on Ozempic. Oh, sorry, Jeff. How everybody knows, I'll do my best to keep it in check with my brand new song of the week that's coming up right after this. No one can resist a rule of culture, so here's one for the dating files.

Rule of culture number 72. Chemistry isn't just vibes, it's values. Because what's the point of matching with someone if you can't talk about the shows you binge, the books you dog ear, or all the hot takes, you'll defend it brunch? I mean, you definitely have friends who have met their partners on Bumble,

and it makes sense. It's not just about matching with someone. It's about finding someone who gets your references, your obsessions, your whole vibe. With shared interests and prompts, you don't just see a profile. You get a glimpse of someone's personality, which makes it even easier to start conversations

that actually lead somewhere. Plus, with photo and ID verification, you can trust that the person you're talking to is real. With that added piece of mind, it's so much easier to show up as your full self. So whether your rule of culture is, the best first state start with the shared hot take on Renaissance, or compatibility as having the same hometown bodega order, download Bumble and turn those connections into something bigger. Download Bumble and start your love story. Hi, Kyle, could you draw up a quick document with the basic business plan?

Just one page as a Google Doc and send me the link. Thanks. Hey, just finished drawing up that quick one-page business plan for you. Here's the link. But there was no link. there was no business plan. It's not his fault. I hadn't programmed Kyle to be able to do that yet. My name is Evan Ratliff.

I decided to create Kyle, my AI co-founder, after hearing a lot of stuff like this from OpenAI CEO Sam Aldman. There's this betting pool for the first year that there's a one-person, a billion-dollar company, which would have been like unimaginable without AI and now will happen. I got to thinking, could I be that one person?

I'd made AI agents before for my award-winning podcast, Shell Game. This season on Shell Game, I'm trying to build a real company with a real product run by fake people. Oh, hey, Evan. Good to have you join us. I found some really interesting data on adoption rates for AI agents and small to medium businesses.

How preventable is type 2? Extremely.

Or our in-depth analysis of how incredible, mangoes are. Oh, it's hard to explain to the rest of the world that, like, your mangoes are fine because mangoes are incredible, but, like, you don't even know. You don't know. You don't know. It's going to be a fun ride. So tune in.

Listen to Health Stuff on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey there, Dr. Jesse Mills here. I'm the director of the men's clinic at UCLA Health. And I want to tell you about my new podcast called The Mailroom. And I'm Jordan, the show's producer. And like a lot of guys, I haven't been to the doctor in many years. I'll be asking the questions we probably should be asking, but aren't. Because guys usually don't go to the doctor unless a piece of their face is hanging off or they've broken a bone.

Depends which bone. Well, that's true. Every week, we're breaking down the unique world of men's health, from testosterone and fitness to diets and fertility and things that happen in the bedroom. You mean sleep? Yeah, something like that, Jordan. We'll talk science without the jargon and get you real answers to the stuff you actually wonder about. It's going to be fun, whether you're 27, 97, or somewhere in between. Men's Health is about more than six packs and supplements.

I want to tell you about my new podcast called Not My Best Moment, where I talk to artists, athletes, entertainers, creators, friends,

people I admire who had massive success about their massive failures. What did they mess up on? What is their heartbreak? And what did they learn from it? I got judged horribly. The judges were like, you're trash. I don't know how you got on the show. Boo, somebody had tomatoes.

I'm kidding. But if they had tomatoes, they would have thrown the tomatoes. Let's be honest. We've all had those moments we'd rabbit. forget. We bumped our head. We made a mistake. The deal fell through. We're embarrassed. We failed. But this podcast is about that and how we made it through. So when they sat me down, they were kind of like, we got into the small talk and they were just like, so what do you got? What? What ideas? And I was like, oh, no. What? Check out Not My Best Moment with me, Kevin

on stage on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcast. It's time for my song of the week. It's Brooke and Jeffrey. in the morning. Love this time of week, Jeff. And I'm going to give you all a few hot stats before the upcoming holiday season. I love a hot stat. You know you're warmed up if you're coming in with hot stats. That's right.

17% of Americans say it's very likely someone will argue about politics over dinner this year. Oh, definitely. That's a pretty low number. That's just the very likely. There's somewhat likely, sort of likely. That's like the 99%. Yeah, that's most of them. That's people saying I'm coming in with a political fight ready.

That's one guy going, I'm wearing the hat to dinner. Meanwhile, in an unrelated note, the average American will consume 3.1 alcoholic drinks on Turkey Day. Three. Oh, wow. And maybe the most shocking stat of all, 15% of us don't use any gravy. They just dry it up. Luckily, Brooke makes up for that entire 15%. In the boat, I'll drink it.

I know what you're probably thinking. You're probably thinking what I'm thinking. Why aren't there holiday songs about this type of stuff? All about like the petty stuff. Now there is. All right. And this isn't going to be about the wonder of holiday lights or the magic sound of jingle bells ringing while angels or singing or whatever the lyric really is. This is about the real struggle of what it's actually like to visit your family and take.

on the holidays. Let's go, Jeff. The anthem we all needed. I'm kind of doing a sort of parody medley of famous holiday tunes. So there's not one big title for it. But the first one,

well, actually, you'll just, you'll hear it. Okay. No spoilers. I'm just going to point when I'm ready. Turkey medley. Uh-huh. Points. Oh, there's no plane

that's flown in these flight delay. What that airport announcement say, who knows? TSA felt me up like we were on a date. When they frisk your leg, it's frowned on if you moan. I've been camped outside of Gate B3, just sleeping on the floor On a diet of Cinnabonds and Miller Likes The third time they changed the gate on me, I hit the airport bar once more

Hudson News I bought some chicklets, they cost more than my plane tickets Flying coach means there's no chance of personal space and you're always the lowest boarding zone they say only the Epstein files had more delays for the holidays to be faster if you drove Viewpoints differing to See Uncle Ned Turneretter as he yells what they said on Fox News There will be loud name calling an in-law squabbling feuds Our family get together's like a Jerry Springer venue

Stir it up, whip it up, serve it up, oh no Where did the cat go And why do I hear meowing from the stove Pour a cup, fill it up, tear it up granddad Granddad, the fifth Yeager he's had. His bladder is small, so we all saw him use a dog's potty pad. My dad's new girlfriend, Zoe, it's weird because she's only 19. So when my sister met her, she said, hey, home wreck her, so me.

This bird is so enormous, like a big bronchosaurus. It's huge. As we break bread together, let's address Zoe's daddy issues. I read an article in the New Yorker that says, says eating mashed potatoes too fast can spike your stress hormone. My vegan step and Heather complains that there's never tofu. Got way too drunk with my cousin, but we stopped after rounding days too. At dinner, lungs are choking. We're all smelling smoke in the room.

Mom left her gloves in the oven until the flames had the kitchen consumed. Grandma left and said she's going to. Wait, isn't that close? We think she probably meant J.C. Penny. Yeah. In her lawn chair with a case of white claws, she's a door-bust in Black Friday bargain theme. I've been here since 3 a.m.

In her handbag, she got coupons. Her rascal scooter by the door. It's got a V8 engine. When they opened up, she floored it and plowed over a family. of four. Later on Black Friday morning, both my grandma's eyes were black, clutching to a cheap air friar, with her cane carved to a shiv over her back. Oh, Grandma just got trampled for a blender, got back up and choked a mom of three.

She's my bargain hunting ninja nana. So the blood stains on my dips don't bother me. Step away from the Lego set, you tramp. Oh, come on. Oh, my God. Yay. All right. That was so good.

You brought us through the entire holiday. Yeah. It's going to be a fun one this year. Good. Always is. I'd say highlights, but really they're low lights. But they're really the parts that you remember. That's it.

That's what the holidays are really all. about. So you can text in to 7-8-5-9-2 and tell us what you thought about the song in the week. We'll post the video up with all the lyrics on all of our socials. Just find us at Broke and Jeffrey on YouTube and TikTok and it's done everywhere. You know, and share with all your Uncle Ned's out there. Yeah. We'll play this on Thanksgiving. Yes. Your dad's new girlfriend is going to love it. Oh my God. I love this show. On TikTok. That's your song of the week. Happy Thanksgiving, everybody. We're going to do a phone tap

right after this. Christina is a new player with us on the phone today. She is married with two kids, both teenagers. She works full time in tech, but also owns a mini donut food truck on the side. Christina, is it possible you could just park that in my mouth later, just the whole truck? Probably. I could probably arrange that. Oh, my God.

I bet you're like the most popular teen mom ever. Absolutely. As long as I have donuts in my hands. Absolutely. Do you have like a specialty donut that you serve from your truck? So our favorite is the maple bacon, and people go crazy for it. But you'd be surprised people also just love traditional chocolate with sprinkles or the ever popular with the young folks is the fruity pebble one. Yeah. Oh, man.

All right. Well, unfortunately, we have to bring donut talk to an end for the day because we got to play a game here. I could go for a hot glaze right now. I know it's such a bummer, but we got 30 seconds on the clock to answer as many questions as possible. If you don't know when you can say pass, you have to beat Brooke outright if you want to win. Are you ready? Yes. Let's do it.

Your time starts now. Carly Ray Jepsen celebrates a birthday today. What 2012 song of hers sold 18 million copies? Pass. Gorgonzola, Rokeford, and Danish are forms of what type of cheese? Cheese. What specific type of dress was popularized? in the 1920s by women dancing to jazz.

Donuts solve problems. Do you stuff your turkey with donuts? No, that's a thought, though. Hey. Christina, take a break for a second because it's Brooks turn. Brooke, you ready? Yes. Your time starts now.

Really? I mean, Maine's more known for it. Alaskin lobsters. It's okay. Let Brooke question herself for another five minutes. I thought you were going to ask me what they were, and I was like, those are cheeses, Jeff. They're probably blue cheeses.

That's why I shouldn't get too full of myself. Let's go to the scoreboard and C.A. Bolt did with Jose. Getting drunk in the morning. Who are you? Kathy Lee Giffithet. Bologios. Hey, Christina, you got two correct today. Oh

Over 80% of all lobsters in America are from there. That's a lot. Boxing days, a British holiday celebrated after which American holiday? Christmas.
