Eddie & Rocky -- 11/25/25

Rye back with Eddie and Rocky here on a beautiful day in the trist Yeah, rock and over, we're talking this morning when I was doing a phone call in the morning and it was like, dude, just looking out the window, did it looks like something out of a movie. If you want a crummy day, it's there.

And we've had a ton of these, just like a ton of rain days this late in the year. Seems weird, but nevertheless, hopefully the weather will be fine for this Thursday Thanksgiving matchup between your Cincinnati Bengals and the Baltimore Ravens. And Ravens Week is always great because it gives us a chance to check in with our guy, one of the best in Baltimore, Glenn Clark of the Glen Clark Radio Show. You can follow him on the social channels

Betty Rocky? Happy Thanksgiving? Guys. Always great to catch you up. Appreciate you having.

Me and back at you, Glenn. So let's talk about the Ravens team Surgeon Baltimore Ravens.

Yeah, five straight wins. It's been a really weird tale of two seasons, almost here in Baltimore where they get up to this dreadful one in five start, and part of it is they lose Lamar Jackson. But they started off fine offensively. Their defense was miserable for the first five games the season, one of the worst in the NFL. And then all of a sudden, the defense gets fixed.

Yeah, that's been the conversation around here this week. Glenn. It's it's a very simple question. Are the Ravens good, you know, because yeah, you look at the record and they lose what five out of you know, the first six games, and they rattle off the next five, but those are all those are against Miami, Minnesota, Cleveland, the Jets.

Yeah, I don't mean to cop out Rock, but it still seems like it's to be determined a little bit to your point that they did not exactly go through like a murderer's row of quarterbacks with putting together five straight wins. Ironically, the best win they had in that stretch was without Lamar Jackson. It was Tyler Huntley beating the Bears in order to get their second win of the season. But the last four have been against Tua and JJ McCarthy and Dylan Gabriel, Flash, Studoor Sanders and

So is this something that's going to continue to linger with Lamar ja or is he healthy but by this point or where's that stand?

Yeah, rock I at this point assume that it's gonna linger. I mean, it's it really is insane. This is the fourth yet this week he missed the first. They don't even you know practice. You know how this goes with the Thursday night game, they do a walkthrough, and and that, by the way, is maybe even more eye opening that they said he didn't participate in a walkthrough because of what was labeled as a toe injury. Now he was

Talking to Glenn Clark. He is from Baltimore Radio and Glenn, what's the reaction of Joe Burrow coming back? Was that kind of anticipated, man, I wouldn't be a I wouldn't think it'd be a giant shock.

Yeah, that press conference he did when he first practiced and was kind of being a little koy and they were like, it's the goal Thanksgiving night, and he was like, maybe we'll see I think that moment we started talking about it, and then you know, we were kind of honestly asking here on my show and over on WBTL.

I'm like, I don't know.

What is the better?

Would you rather it be Joe Flacco, you know, with real weapons coming into Baltimore with a chance to ruin Thanksgiving, or perhaps a diminished version of Joe Burrow? But if he's out there, given the record and Rock, I think you feel this way too, Like, I gotta think that he's capable of being Joe Burrow. And if he is,

So yeah, I think the.

Expectation is that you're facing Joe Burrow, You're getting the real deal. You're getting Jamar Chase, who I think had six thousand yards against you in two games last year.

He's gonna be a problem for the race right.

Well, and the Bengals have no t Higgins, he had the head injury. He will not play, So Glenn, I would expect a lot of Burrow to jamar show one. Yeah, I think he's going to look around. And that's of course what Joe Flacco did well, and Joe Burrow also does that too. And if you have one of the best wide receivers in football, you better be getting in the bar or that's a problem. Look, obviously, a lot of folks playing here know about Derrick Henry in the

Overall?

How's he playing?

Not as well as he did a year ago?

Rock Like a year ago he was a revelation.

A year ago, I was laughing at myself forever thinking that it was silly to spend real money on a running back because a year ago he was an utter and complete game changer. This year, I still think he's good and I don't think the problem is Dereck Henry, like I think a lot of people are going to has he lost the step. I'll give you an example. Last week, Derek Henry finished with sixty four yards on the ground, which is not overly impressive, but consider fifty

You should have a cheat code.

In the red zone, but guys, they're five for fourteen over their last three games in the red zone. They're executing at about a thirty three percent clip in the red zone over the course of the last three weeks. They have real offensive line problems that are impacting. You know, the type of game changer that Derek Henry can be is between the tackles runner. Now they've been using.

Keaton Mitchell a little bit more.

They're very speedy change of paceback to try to get him on the outside.

I think you might even see a little bit more of.

That on Thursday night.

But they've got to figure out a way.

Dereck Henry is the December January problem. Like, that's the guy you don't want to have to try to tackle twenty times during the course of a game, but you gotta at least give him a chance to get downhill.

And the Ravens struggle to do that this season.

Yeah, all right, well, well Glenn listening, It should be a fantastic game. Joe Burrow coming back, the Ravens surgeing here and we'll see what happens. Folks want to find out more about you and your show and tune in. Where can they go?

Yeah, going click radio with two ends, Gleen Clark Radio, Gleen Clark Radio dot Com, u w B is wi DL as well. I'll be one of the stiffs working on a holiday. But I mean this is what we call this work. I mean, for God's sake exactly, we're gonna be talking football and Thanksgiving. It's not a bad way to spend your time, you got it.

Well, we're going listen. Always a pleasure, brother. I always love Ravens Ravens Week because we get to talk and look, we'll get to talk here in a couple of weeks.

Man.

It's almost like back to back here, so that should be great.

I love it all right.

Thanks Jacky, Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.

Yeah, I uh, we'll see how this goes. If if if Lamar Jackson's in bad shape as he's saying, and the Bengals defense that played on Sunday shows up a little better, it could be interesting.

And I mean, obviously all eyes will be on Joe Burrow. Of course, now everybody's gonna be watching the look in the first little limp or anything he has. People are gonna lose. Yeah, I'll be one of them screaming at the television, but hopefully comes out in let to rip.

There was I've told a story, but out in the Bahamas on San Salvago, where where I've been many many, many many times, there was somebody that was while I was out there, was attempting to like a free dive, went down, never came back up.

Wow.

Yeah, that's that's scary. And and did you get disoriented? Like which ways up? Which ways down? Breathe? You go up too fast and then you your pressure eye, your deep you know pressure eye.

Well, that to me, right there is the most horrible way to die. Drowning has always scared me since I was a little boy.

I mean, there's not like the smallest part of my being that would want to do this, none, none, zero.

I back in the day, I would have thought I could do that.

Hello.

I'm a marine.

No matter how you served, My buddies from the Army are all gone. Now I'm really alone. No matter what you're going through.

I keep getting calls about the bills, and I'm trying to get a job that feels so stuck.

We are here for you.

It's an innovative standing.

A right back with Eddie and Rocky and rock Here we are two days out from Thanksgiving.

Yes, and the Queen of Cincinnati Media and Thanksgiving is of course our next guest. It's been having a Turkey Bay team for the past seventy two hours. She's gardening all the sides, she's brining, she's spatch cocking.

Is that what you call it, yes, them up and all that and uh, you know, getting all the taters ready and all that stanberry sauce. She is our good friend, Tanya or Roy from w CBO nine News. Now, Tanya, I remember I was talking to you last year and you had been cooking for approximately seven or eight days when we talked to you, and it was it was on this day, exactly a year ago. How long have you been? How long have you been?

Memory is really.

Well, it's not exactly this day, but it's the Tuesday before Thanksgiving.

That's all I remember.

But nonetheless you uh, okay, how long you've been cooking?

Now?

Yeah? Less than a week? How's that? Less than a week.

So like late last week I started, I went down to Family Market. I purchased you know, turkey nacks and wings, roasted those off, and made my stock which will then support my turkey and my stuffy or dressing or what do you call it. So that's done. My husband made the cranberry sauce the other day. I'm going to make potatoes tonight, and I'm going to start making the pies, pie dough and all that stuff for tonight, and then tomorrow we'll have I'll spatchcock my turkey tonight. Just picked

And have a nice inner and enjoy myself. That's my goal.

Well is that your goal?

Or do you really don't care because your wife's handle it, don't they?

I do.

I do absolutely nothing, Tony. I show up and I sit down and I just knew I mean, I mean nothing.

I will tell you this, Tanya, I had nothing to do this morning, so I yanked that bird out of the fridge. I've been thawing him for you know, five six days perfectly. Thawn took it out, cleaned it up, and I've dry brinded. Now it's back in the fridge sitting there drying out. That's how I'd love to.

Know your dry Brian rest, So you have to text it to me. You haven't done mine yet.

It's called salt, but a ton of.

Salt on there.

Just rub it in there and stick at the fridge.

Okay, yeah, that's perfectly good to me. I love that. I love that.

Did you did you scratch cock it? Did you take out the backbone? And or you?

Wait for people most people including me, that have no idea what scratch cocking means.

Spatch cock scratch cocking.

It's not what you think.

Okay, so completely different. Explain what that is.

Okay, here's what I did this last year. It was so good, you guys.

So you take out the back, the spine, the backbone, right, and which is really hard on a turkey. I do it on chickens all the time, but dig in a turkey. That took a muscle, I gotta tell you. So then you take out the backbone and you basically do like chest compression, you flip it over, you do chest compressions on the chest so it lays flat. So then like instead of it being a three to like very three dimensional turkey you see on you know, traditional posters, that's what thanks doing.

Turkey looks like it's.

Laying flat, so it's yeah, it's still free imaginal.

But it's not.

It's like its legs are out wide. It's our arms are out wide. It's breast and thighs are in the center.

Yeah, okay, then its it cooks better that way, it cooks more evenly.

I can cooks. Are you taking the backbone out or are you just basically breaking it the ribs and all that stuff and scrunching it down.

So you you cut the back bone out, which is so you're cutting the spine out.

It's really kind of nasty.

And you take it out all the way down to the tailbone right, which is not It's not easy. I'm not kidding you on a turkey because those bones are thick. And once you yank that out, I will tell you roast it up and make a gravy out of it.

Who it's delicious.

But then you then you have to break the chest bone, so you kind of do chest compressions on it.

You get what I'm saying.

You could so you kind of push down on it from the meaty part of the breast the clavicle or with clasical what's the center sternam Some doctors nurses are like driving their cars about their wrecks.

The wrong thing, but you crunch it.

There's some little boy right now going to do this to his little sister.

In my Like last year, I made my oldest son do it for me because he's nice and strong and you know, like just push down really hard and you hear.

It's kind of icky. But you know, any lays what?

Now?

How do you use good tips?

I have to try that.

How many? How many people are going to be dying at your establishment?

I think we had about eleven. We just went up in numbers today. My sister texts me, it's like, hey, do you mind if sowing soakons? Like yeah, su or whatever, so I'll figure out where to put them.

Cool.

You know, it's no big girl, I'd rather look. Do you guys do this? This is what we do.

We are making a ridiculous amount of food. Like we make so much extra turkey because we like love to eat it for days and days and days and the snakes, Like I make a real whole turkey. My husband makes just a big turkey breast, but I'm making a fourteen pound turkey. He's making a fourteen pound breast.

Wow, and there are eleven of us.

I am a believer that Thanksgiving, especially the turkey is better multiple days after actual Thanksgiving when sits in the in the band with the gravy and stuff.

That turkey ain't nothing better.

So yeah, more make it all everything.

I love it all. Turkey soup, it's great. I love it. So you sit there, you want extras? You want leftovers?

Oh yeah yeah absolutely, yea, so we're actually so we're all get plenty of left Yeah.

See there's the stuffing I can eat. I can eat that leftover stuffing for days.

Man.

Yeah yeah, yeah yeah.

That's like you know, like do you do you do a bread stuffing?

Corn bread? What do you do?

I used to do bread, but it was it was EM's Bakery. And you remember this Tanya at Finley M's Bakery that was down there. Every year they had this they had their bread stuffing mix that was outstanding. And so they don't that place to close. So now I just use the old Carriage Hill or whatever that is. And Pepperage Farm kind of Peppridge Farm. Yeah yeah that uh just people love that.

Yeah, like I love it. I love peppers Farm and love stove Top.

I'm like, go for it, buddy, whatever it takes, let me tell you something that your favorite outside of Turkey, right, that's what you love more.

Much she'd like What was it like to have to feed you on Thanksgiving?

I mean just like you talk to my mom about weekly grocery bills like when I was in high school and stuff. I mean, just forget it, you know, I mean, couldn't couldn't eat enough, right, you burn calories, couldn't need enough. So yeah, Thanksgiving, we we we put it down and now we got you know, it's between I got, I got three boys. My sister has two boys. Just boys everywhere. It's like my sister, my mom, and my wife.

This is great. I learned about what's it called not scratch cockings, spatch cock splash cocky. I learned about that. Yes, yeah, I learned something to say. The Eddian Rocky Show is very educational.

I've always heard about it. For me, I didn't really I knew it was something about taking the backbone out of a turn, but I still couldn't even talking to Tanya was like, why I get a bone saw and cut the damn backbone out of it?

Turkey gets some sharp like good pair of scissors, rough man. I mean essentially removing the parts, some of the parts that you can't eat, which probably helps the cooking of it and makes it a little more even, yeh, smash it down. I would try that. I wouldn't do it.

Put a bunch of jumping the inside of the bird, shoving the oven for four hours.

So you actually put the stuffing in the turkey? Yes, I do? And now how does that? Is it mushier like that? I like my stuffing like not real mushy.

It's kind of again it's it's mushy. But see, but you have a bunch of it sticking out of the turkey's butt, so that part gets crunchy. So you mix it all together like eating this stuff, you have to clean that part really well.

I bet, I bet? So what else do you make sure you're since you're the big cook here?

Uh oh that's all I know. I make mashed potatoes, But do you make them like really peel the potatoes and you know absolutely? Okay, a little mixture out the lumps in the right. See something I read a long time. It's something I read a while back. Let me school you. Uh, you don't use a mixer. I used to always use a mixer. You use one of those hand hampers. Yeah, because it messes up, it releases too much. Start if

Your favorite ingredient, salt.

I put a little bit of salt there. I put some pepper in there.

Thanksgiving, Like, do you require like a gallon of water next to you to eat the meal with other salt you put in else?

The salt, the salt in the turkey when you Brian, it kind of just goes away. Okay, at least I tell mysew that right. But there's a lot of salt in the potatoes.

And I love salt.

And uh and DeBie usually makes some kind of greens, probably green beans, because that's what the boys will eat. And but she'll toss bacon and ham or something there and that'll that'll sald it up a little bit. Have some fresh baked rolls, off you go.

We're talking about your Thanksgiving horror stories. We don't want to hear anything about Well, my uncle Bob was over here and I really drunk, and he drove into a tree on the way home.

Yeah, or let's leave just right, fell asleep and died in the chair right back.

But he was watching the football game. And then my aunt Gladys tried to wake him up and he just didn't us. But your stories five, three, seven, nine, seven, and eight hundred, the big one, let's get right to him. We got Wendy's been holding for a little bit. A Wendy in Loveland.

What do you have, Hey, I'm a nurse at University Hospital working in the trauma center in the er, and one Thanksgiving we had a very very drunk man who came into the er with a fork stuck in his chest, in his heart, and it was beating every time he.

His heart beat and he had to.

Go to the oar and he luckily survived all this.

But yeah, so, well the things.

That people do when do we got to ask was it was the fork stuck there by someone else or did he stick it in himself?

Wow, it was a little family feud over the turkey not being done correctly.

Bid. Yeah, that's it was great. So now was it like a normal fork or was like the fork you used to get the turkey that has the two very very sharp prongs.

Yep, that would go.

And it was just beatn away a nice heart beat.

Wow.

So did it actually puncture his heart?

Yeah, it actually punctured his heart went through because there was no other way that we could see his heart beating. If it didn't go through, they had to take him immediately to the operating room and uh plug those holds up to save them.

To us.

See, that's what I was wondering. So he did he walk in into his own power? Did somebody have to get a wheelchair? I was gonna say, well, I'm just curious about this.

She came by squad.

Okay, all right, well, well thanks Wendy.

That's that.

That's an interesting little prospect there. Yeah, I'm glad you asked that because I was thinking of a dinner fork. But man, that big giant fork that you would use.

The almost to be worse because don't take a hell of a lot of pressure and velocity of puncture. But that that little lord.

Let's talk to Robbie and Cincinnati. Hey Robbie, thanks for holding What do you have?

Well, I've got nothing as nearly as you know, good as that. But our record right now stands at three cruisers that come to the family gathering. All right, that my stepson's house.

Beautiful day.

Uh, he's out, he's trying a couple of turkeys. My stepdaughter brings her date to the party, which he let's just say, he was rot So they decide they're going to leave. Well, her date is out in his car rolling one up while all the kids were running around, and my step son sees this and to ask him what are you doing?

What are you I mean? And they get into it.

Well, you know, this gentleman is setting in his car behind the steering wheel. He decides to put in reverse. He hits three cars in the way out of the driveway, you know, off the relatives cars. He's playing bumper pool with them, and then you know, we're in this country back round. He takes off down the road and I'm in the house. I'm not even really sure what's going on. I come walking out.

Wow.

And yeah, yes, sir, thanks Robbie your stories five win, three, seven, four, nine, seven, eight hundred the big one. And there was a shoot, I'll bet you, oh, easily fifteen years ago. As it was the Thanksgiving after my mother had passed away and she had died in the spring, and my sister, because I always had at mom's house, so my sister was going to carry on the drishner at her house. And uh so we were getting ready to leave our house here and she lives just north of Dayton, and so

But it's freezing cold and you're hauling all this stuff out. Oh god, yes, the worst. So yeah, but I had to call my sister and let me explain what happened. I needs to say. My sister was a little bummed. But gotta do what you gotta do.

In Division two, a team that's actually making their third consecutive trip to the state semifinals, that is the thirteen And oh Anderson Raptors, how about that and join us on the show right now? Is they're

Great?

We had a great practice this morning. I had a great walk through talking to you guys. It's a great way to finish off the school week before we head into a little bit Thanksgiving break.

And now to that point, coach, I know you guys have you do some a little unique certainly in high school. You have your practices in the morning, correct, But what time do they start? And how's that go.

So we started five to fifty three. We lost by seven points last year. We used to start at six am. Now it's five fifty three, And it's just one of those things that I just thought it needed to be said and and there needed to be some actions after losing last year. So we practiced in the morning and then after school we have a walk through film session. And it's been really good for us and our coaches and my family lifestyle.

So everything's been going well when we start this process and it's very different, and our parents have to be invested and love it to get their kids up and early, away from theirself phone in the morning. So it's been good for us.

So coach, let me ask you initially, how long you been doing this for one thing?

So this is our third year.

Started off as a like a heat precautionary in like August September, and then.

The kids liked it because they can go to after school events. It's really heat in that fashion. I don't fight the volleyball girls, soccer, boys soccer events in the fall. They get free time and it's freed me up to be home that dinner with my wife and kids. So from a famable perspective, football perspective. It's been working out, and it's been good for three years so far.

I would absolutely love that. By the way, I'm a morning guy. That'd be great. You get your afternoon and evenings free. But but but, coach, I mean you're thirteen to know you just if you did Trotwood Madison last week, which is a really good team, and talk about this you, if I'm not mistaken, you have punted just seven times total this entire year.

Seven times we've had to kick the ball. That means the punt. The punter is the quarterback rock and that means offense failure.

And we have to get a little bit better.

And I just I just love the fact that.

You come to a game of Anderson. I don't want you to miss out on anything. Don't go to the restroom, don't go to the consententive stand. You got to watch all four plays and see what happens.

Yeah, and you do you guys go up tempo too, correct.

Yeah, We're gonna try to snap it about right around thirteen to fifteen seconds this year. We've only average right around my seventy three to seventy five plays last year, right around eighty one and our kids love it and our fans loved it so far and calling the plays is it's really really fun for us and how.

We do it.

And Kach and Evan Dryer, a head coach of Anderson, join us on the show right now talking about the state semifinal game. And that'll be a coach. He'll be seven pm at Crew Stadium in Columbus. Just described to folks out there listening your team, like what makes them special in your opinion. I know your quarterback Owen scaff had, I think it was over four hundred yards and five touchdowns last week. But just talk a little bit about your team, the strengths and what you like about him.

I really you know, as an offensive mind, as a head coach, I really like where our defense is at. We have four returning linebackers that all played last year. You got ready Coon commit to air force on one edge, and you have Antoine Higgins and the other. And then you have unbelievably two senior linebackers that do a great job, Ree Baker and Tanner Holt inside and that's where I think our defense starts. And then you have a Salston

Coach, here's a question, were you obviously you know kids these days the attention spans are shorter. That's probably derived from all the swipe being on the social media and stuff. But I mean, here you are, thirteen games, getting ready to play your fourteenth game. What have you found can can that works well to keep kids, you know, younger kids dialed in for the long grind of a season.

I think we only practiced for a right around hour ten minutes. We left weights Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday throughout the season. That's one thing I will say, boys love and upper body pump just like they did in nineteen eighty five straight.

Yes, sir, I still get mine, coach.

Boys will love that. And I like how we're doing everything for that kind of making sure our body's are right or mind's are right. But if you practice longer than ninety minutes nowadays, it's just as a coach, you're just gonna keep getting frustrated to the intensive span and uh like on the old practice sheet, there's you can get water anytime during a practice, but there is not a five minute sheet, a five minute break time, and we don't waste time a lot on uh warm up.

Nice well, coach, what can you tell us about your opponent on Friday night to Sunbury? Sunbury big Walnut.

Uh.

So they have all State running back and all he's also All State center fielder. He's he's amazing. We got to stop Burly at quarterback. Eli's the quarterback. They're both juniors. We saw him last year. They they are they're run game by their old line. They're all six two riding around two sixty five U seventy five. It's an explosive running attack. And then on D line they have an Ohio State offer kid at D tackle. They have another all Stated tackle, so we gotta be able to contain

Change from last year this year.

They're keeping doing fundamental things. And that's the one thing I love when you watch great programs like that defense doesn't change its samee next.

From year to year. They do the same thing over and over again. That is why they're really good year and year out.

Like that's the part where people have to understand, Like when you watch football, Big Walnut is really good because they have a program they set to it, kids bought in and you can see development from one.

Year in the neet awesome well goes. You know think a lot of you. I think you do a great job. We'll encourage folks out there if you got nothing going on, we'll see some great high school football action. Go to Cruz Stadium in Columbus. H Anderson v. Big Walnut and coach. I know you were close last year, but uh, I think you guys can go all the way this year. I want to wish your best luck.

What's your best luck? Happy Thanksgiving? Turn us on spectrum on Friday night. I'm telling you you're gonna watch love it and the ball is gonna be snapped. You're gonna love watching our attacking defense. I hope everybody's to saddy, uh, which is good luck to Indian Hills, saynex the Northern Kentucky teams. God bless high school football and happy Thanksgiving.

Amen, thanks your coach.

H Seah. What what is it about the water in this area?

Man?

The one of these high school these these programs are second.

Yeah, and yeah, we've we've been remiss and mentioning a lot of the great high school teams in Kentucky and Indiana that are you know, making some runs themselves. So uh now it's uh, it's great. This is the birthplace of football. It really is, you know, talking about certainly pro football in Canton, Ohio in the early places where this game kind of originated and you go back to the Pop Warner days and you know, like what he

On Thanksgiving, something I've always wanted to do that, Uh, I pushed four in the past and the NFL gave it to us, and then you know, the injury happened, and thought I wasn't gonna be able to play, and then as we got closer at you know, felt like it was a real possibility. So that's exciting to me.

Well, the Bengals are now three and eight, almost no way they can make the playoffs. But Burrow is not going to rule that out.

Get right back with Eddie and Rocky.

Rock.

Obviously two days out from Thanksgiving people, the family all gets together, family friends, the whole nine yards. Well for the next what five weeks?

Oh?

Pretty much now through the end of the year, NonStop.

Yep.

And here to discuss dating at the holiday season. Our good friend, Jennifer Steyers, matchmaker, extraordinary relationship expert. She's a podcast host. She does it all, she knows it all. That's the reason we love jen Steyers. Welcome to the program.

Well, thank you.

I wish I knew it all. That would be amazing.

Well we do.

You came to the right Tw'm lucky for you, John Guy.

So Jenner, what advice?

Let's see what I know today?

But yes, what advice do you give? You know people around this time of year, because you always hear about people. Yeah, they some people stay together in relationships even though they want out, just to make it through the holidays. Some people did just break up, so now they're going to be miserable through the holidays. What kind of advice do you give to people like that? Do you cling on through you know, does January the third or whatever? Or do you just cut the cord right down and.

Get on with it?

Oh, everybody cuts the cord before Christmas because they don't want to buy the expensive gifts.

Yeah.

Yeah, you know what I will say, Like, given the timing of everything, it's right before Thanksgiving. This is usually the cherry on the cake. So if somebody's thinking about breaking up and then they have to get together with the fam, but it's it's probably gonna it's probably gonna happen right after Thanksgiving, after the chaotic you know, family

Meet the family.

People break up, but but here's here's what I would advise is if you are in a relationship, it's a great time to get to know somebody's family if you don't already, because if you do end up in a relationship with them, you you've got to you're marrying their family too and all of that stuff. So uh, go ahead and get it out of the way get to know them.

Well, you're right, because that's the time you're on a lot of people are getting together with family, so it's a way to especially if you know maybe you're the person you're dating, their family lives out of town. Well maybe they're coming in town, so good time to do it. But the whole like saving a breakup because it's less stressful through the holidays. No way, if if you're going to break up, just rip the band aid off and

To deal with that.

I think people with kids so they will do that. I think the biggest us divorce is divorce is peak. I think right after January first, so for that reason, because they just try to make it through the holidays, which is sad, but but yeah, it's it's it is the season coming up, you know, it's also the awkward season coming up. So people that are dating or not dating, you know, they typically go see their family. So it's when you get bombarded with questions too, like why aren't

Well, everybody's always just people want to know your business. People are like, I'm not being nosy. Of course you're being nosy, and you want to know what's going on. That's my wife's nature. Well it is, it's human nature. And hey, I'm not gonna lie. I'm curious of what my what's going on with my boys? And I got to twenty something year old boys, Jenna, And if you're aware of that, but my wife really wants to kind of she wants to nutpick at it a little bit

Let it go. That's all you need to know.

You know, boys, boys are different than girls. They don't want to talk about it, so yeah, yeah they will. They probably won't, but but yeah, you know, and at the end of the day, I think sometimes you know, it pushes people. That kind of pressure pushes pushes people, and so you don't want to put too much pressure, especially if they're boys. Don't want to put too much pressure on them because you know they're gonna they'd be more likely to back out of what they're in if

So, Jim, what about folks that are or maybe you know in the market to find a relationship. Is the holidays a good time? You know, there's a lot of parties and stuff going on, a lot more social things happening. Is this a good time to do it? Or do you suggest if you are someone who, well, I'd like to find a you know, a future husband, wife or boyfriend girlfriend, and maybe I'll wait until you know, mid January, or do you go about it right now?

You know, I love the fact that you asked that question. Because Christmas, you know, all the Christmas parties and work Christmas parties, and it's a great time to meet somebody single. And I cannot encourage people enough to get out there and meet people in person. You know, these dating apps are a mess and being able to get in front of people. I mean, someone may bring their friend with them. They don't have a girlfriend or a boyfriend, and you

So we'll get out and tomorrow is like literally we all know you hear it. Every year, the biggest bar night of the year. Every place you go is going to be packed. There's going to be potentials everywhere you look.

Really, is it? Really? I didn't even know that.

Really you didn't know that, you know, Wednesday, Wednesday before Hollow or Halloween, Thanksgiving is the single biggest party night of the biggest bar night for sure.

Yeah, oh my gosh, Well, I know, we used to always go out. There was one bar in Atlanta that was opened up on Thanksgiving and god, we could not wait to get away from my family. So me and my siblings I have five of them, we would literally go out and get Yeah, you could just tear it up Thanksgiving night though, Well that's all.

That's also the case too.

You go out and.

You do the night before, you wake up all hungover. Then you go to mom's house or grandma's house, eat a little dinner, take a little nap, watching some football. Then around about seven eight o'clock, you hit the street again.

Boom, we're drag out there.

Yep, those word the days, Those were the days. But yet, if that's a big if that's a big party night, the night before big for singles go out, I mean, you know, it's weird. We've gone out here in Dallas, I think, and there's nobody out. It's like everybody's gone. Uh So I feel like so many people are traveling to go see family during holidays.

So wid let me let me ask you, jen We're talking to Jennifer Styers.

What is uh.

Southern bell?

Like you?

What what is the what is the Thanksgiving?

Me?

A consist of.

You know what that's so different for every family. My mom is Italian, and uh boy, if we get with my Italian family, it's everything. It's lavagna and you know, every kind of meat possible and side dish and dessert. But my mom actually cooks a really healthy Thanksgiving. I'm a little jealous of people that get all the all the crazy fixens. We we actually eat turkey, and I think stuffing is the most battening thing we have. So yeah, what about y'all?

Yeah, we got all the all the regulars, you know, the turkey, the stuffing, the the yams are big a candy jams. Yeah, marshmallows on it. I'll forget it.

God, I that's my favorite. I love that my mom makes that.

Yeah.

So, Jen, where did you grow up?

Did you?

I thought you grew up in Dallas, but sounds like you grew up in Atlanta.

I grew up in Georgia. Yeah, yeah, I grew up in Georgia. I'm the Southern. I'm a Southern peach. Yeah, I'm a Southern girl. But yeah, so I I load up on the sweet tea so uh so with lots of that for Thanksgiving? And pie. Everyone's gotta have pie, right, five different kinds of pies?

Multiple?

Yes, Yes, your wife makes how made pies for Thanksgiving?

The homemade variety?

The well no, but my wife is a Christmas cookie making fool. She makes you know, She's one of those that will make like, I don't know, eighteen dozen cookies and they just give them to people. And some people were like, we're good, I made my own christ Just take the damn cookies. I'm just like, take the damn cookies.

Yeah, please, because otherwise you're at your health right with the with that Jin we will let you go.

It is our pleasure and we want to wish you and yours are very happy Thanksgiving.

Amazing Thanksgiving. Guys, don't eat too much?

All right, thanks people? Yeah, take care. There's gen Stires now, see I can. She never did answer the question what she makes it. I guess she just goes to her mom's.

Huh yeah, maybe shouldn't make anything.

That's what I'm wondering.

Yeah, Well, as we discussed earlier, I make nothing. I do absolutely nothing. I show up very spoiled on Thanksgiving.

Well you got you know, you got two moms. She got Kelly's mom and your mom.

Thanksgivings, we'll go to right my parents' house and that's my mom, Kelly, and mostly my mom because she she wants to write, you know, she wants to do the Thanksgiving, but my sister and my wife help out.

And then go over to her mom's house and her mom does all this stuff. And do you remember the first holiday you spent with her parents?

I guess it was. See we first started dating like December of whatever that was, and then we got engaged the following Christmas, right, so it was like a year long before we got engaged I was it, So there wasn't really any rule holidays other than that next Christmas. And we were engaged because and I didn't I didn't ask Kelly's mom. I didn't talk to her and say, hey, I'm going to propose. I just just did it.

I didn't either yet the whole asked the dad for permission or her dad was said no, her dad I dead really liked me, but I don't think i'd have been an issue.

But we.

We've been dating. We started dating at the end of January, and then I went I that's when I went to Australia those years ago, and I went to Australia for a couple of weeks. So I was gone on a lot of two weeks there in February, and as I recall, Easter was early that year, and it was like right at the end of March, first week of April maybe, So we've been going out seriously for about six weeks, I'd say, and I'd never met any of her family, and uh, she was like, why don't you come over

Now?

Does anybody want to go to the garage with me?

With that?

Meet Santa heading.

Zoo train all right back with Eddie and Rocky a little while longer and rock Here. It is that time of year, Yes, the most wonderful time of year. We're here a couple of days out from Thanksgiving. We got Christmas right around the corner. But the it's also that time of year for porch pirates.

Yes, lots of gifts getting ordered and getting delivered, and with so many people shopping online, most of the things we buy get delivered, they get set on the porch, or they get set out by the mailbox. And here come the pirates and joining us with more on that is our good friend Alex Stone from ABC and Alex is that time of year the pirates are out.

Yeah, they come out of the shadows because of all the good stuff that we're getting delivered. So yeah, police say one in four Americans now has had a package stolen from their doorstep. That it is that common that so many people are dealing with at a quarter of Americans, and that most of the thefts, it's when the bad guys think you're probably at work, and yeah, all of a sudden that you know, brown Box is enticingly sitting

I value electronic items.

So we've seen iPhones.

The new Nintendo Switch is expected to be a big target.

A that's small and can easily be run off with.

Okay, so a couple of tips cops say that the best thing to do is just be home. I mean obviously that that's the best thing. To grab it immediately when it's delivered, or have a neighbor go over and grab it, or while it's super annoying, to choose the signature option, which I hate. We had a package last week that I think on the third delivery attempt by UPS. Finally we were there because it was on Saturday. But after the third one, then you know you got to

Waiting for the phones as though they were expecting them.

Because they were expecting them. And then moments after the fed Ex employee dropped off the iPhone that sometimes they would even intercept the fed Ex employee. The runners would grab it and then leave and the stolen phones would then go to a st house and then they were resold around the world. But the prosecutor saying.

Them to the system, the co concrewers would then contact these runners and tell them these are the names, and you're going to go out and pick these up.

And if they had to sign for them, they even knew from being in the FedEx system what the name was going to be, or they would change the name and be able to sign for it. So that was a big takedown. And the phones were coming from Verizon and AT and T and they would be waiting for them. But typically it's going to be the person on a bike or in a car kind of following ups or FedEx and just grabbing whatever they can find on porches and yeah, a lot of times that's going to be

I guess the good news is so many people have those ring doorbell cans, or even if you don't have it, people may think you do and that might thwark some theft, right.

Yeah, I mean hopefully, although in the moment, if they grabbed something and they've got their face covered, then what and the item's gone. But a lot of these companies, if you contact them, they will make it right and send you another one. I think it just depends on what the company is and what the item is. If it's a twenty thousand dollars item, they may not be as willing as a ten dollars item from Amazon, but because they're going to say, hey, you know, we left

And Alex, something we didn't hit there. Now, talking about this hacking of FedEx's a system, weren't they also giving them? They would just change the address on it and put it to you know, some a house maybe that some of these guys knew was going to be empty or something, and make that the address of the delivery and just that's where the guy would be waiting on him. That's crazy stuff.

Yeah, So they would do both. They would know that they were coming, but then they would also physically in the FedEx system change the delivery address so that then they would know where it's going to be and it wouldn't be the actual recipient and it would be an unknowing home and they would is run up and grab

All right with that, Alex, Uh, you've been warned.

That is true.

So there you go, So be at home and wait those If you go on the UPS app, it'll give you like a four hour window. It's like the old days of waiting for the cable guy of like your package will be there from eleven thirty to three thirty or four thirty in the afternoon. Right now, you just got to sit around all day and wait for ups.

The problem is it doesn't show up men until like eight.

That's exactly what happened on that package I was talking about where he needed the signature last week where I told my wife and like it says eleven thirty to two thirty, and then two thirty came and three thirty and then and then look in there and it says before nine pm.

And I was like, well, what a waste of a day for my wife? This You sat around all day.

There you go with that, Alex, We will let you go, buddy, Hey have a great Thanksgiving you too.

Thanks guys, Happy Thanksgiving, Happy Thanksgiving, Alex, thank you.

Okay rock In other news, Now, we've talked about this before and to my well, we were talking earlier in the show. You were talking about people who do that deep diving thing.

Yeah, the woman had spent h where's the I don't have the article here next to me, but yeah, she's a set the world record for free diving deep dive, free diving with no fins two.

Hundred and seventy two feet so and then we were talking about the possibility of losing your breath down there and you'd be screwed, blah blah blah. Well, that that's the thought scares the hat out of me. But also, and I think it scares the head out of the of anybody, the thought of being alive in a coffin.

Oh that that is I think everyone's thought about that, and that get a little panicky sensation. Yep er uh.

And that very everything just happened in Thailand. This is a Buddhist temple in the in the on the outskirts of Bangkok. They posted a video on his Facebook page about this particular woman. The temple's general and financial affairs manager told the Associated Press this past Monday that the sixty five year old woman's brother drove her from the province of to be cremated because he drove three hundred miles with this woman's supposed body in a coffin because

Yeah. Uh.

So they're sitting there talking, uh huh huh, and all of a suddenly, this temple general, here's a fate knocking coming from the coffin.

No.

I was a bit surprised, so I asked the guy to open the coffin, and everyone was startled. I saw her opening her eyes slightly and knocking on the side of the coffin. She must have been knocking for quite some time.

Wolf Wolf. Yeah, I mean, just the whole thought of being inside a coffin. No, light, No nothing.

Yeah, the brother said his sister, he was the sister, or this was his sister. This guy, I thought it was his grandma or something. He said his sister had been bedridden for about two years. When her health deteriorated, she became unresponsive, appeared to stop breathing. That's when he over to this to the hospital in Bangkok, to which the woman said she wanted to donate her organs. Well, the hospital refused to accept the woman to take her

We'll peg of the tamp. I mean, it feels so bad for the woman of psychological traumas she been through.

Well, you got a figure though, and I'm I'm not discounting this trauma for this lady, but you got to kind of figure she ain't in good shape.

So is that the reason why they should just throw in her coffin and lock her in for like a day.

Well, that's what my wife would do to me.

Yeah, exactly.

Come on, fess up.

You know, if the our wives had the chance to do what they would, there's no doubt it'd be padlocked, like like you were Dragula or something. They would wrap chains around and marked deep deep, deep dope, make it twelve feet, not double it down.

So, by the way, this sort of thing happened a lot back in the day because they didn't know when someone you know, passed out or they went into a coma, you thought they were dead, which is how the term dead ringer came about. Right, really had to run little bells on little strings down into the coffin. And if you I wonder how many times that actually happen throughout human history. Imagine being the guy sitting there on the cemetery not and you hear.

Like, d oh, come on, there ain't no way that's that person would still be screwed. Because if I hear dig ding in the dead of night in a cemetery. The kid is out. Yes, I'm finding a new profession.

Yes.

Uh.

With that, we check in with trafficing, weather, What is going on,
