WEBVTT - 11-3-25 America's Truckin' Network

0:00:10.560 --> 0:00:13.360
<v Speaker 1>This is America's Trucking Network with Kevin Gordon.

0:00:15.280 --> 0:00:19.000
<v Speaker 2>Welcome aboard, Thanks for tuning in on this first show

0:00:19.320 --> 0:00:23.120
<v Speaker 2>of November. I want to take a moment here briefly

0:00:23.160 --> 0:00:26.160
<v Speaker 2>and talk about the devastation down in Jamaica. Up to

0:00:26.200 --> 0:00:29.000
<v Speaker 2>this point, there's something like the number right now is

0:00:29.040 --> 0:00:32.640
<v Speaker 2>fifty eight people that are dead, twenty eight in Jamaica

0:00:32.680 --> 0:00:35.839
<v Speaker 2>and then twenty eight in Haiti. The estimates are currently

0:00:36.520 --> 0:00:39.520
<v Speaker 2>Melissa has turned out to see it's not even on

0:00:39.560 --> 0:00:40.879
<v Speaker 2>the radar screen anymore.

0:00:40.960 --> 0:00:41.800
<v Speaker 3>And as a matter of.

0:00:41.680 --> 0:00:44.680
<v Speaker 2>Fact, the National Weather Service is saying that there are

0:00:44.720 --> 0:00:48.920
<v Speaker 2>no tropical cyclones in the Atlantic at this time. Cyclone

0:00:48.960 --> 0:00:52.519
<v Speaker 2>activity is not expected for the next seven days. But

0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:55.760
<v Speaker 2>the pictures and the devastation down there in Jamaica is

0:00:55.840 --> 0:00:59.040
<v Speaker 2>just absolutely incredible. In our hearts and prayers go out

0:00:59.080 --> 0:01:02.720
<v Speaker 2>to them. I mentioned this is our first show of November.

0:01:02.760 --> 0:01:06.200
<v Speaker 2>It is Turkey month Thanksgiving at the end of the

0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:08.800
<v Speaker 2>month of late this year, so which means we're gonna

0:01:08.840 --> 0:01:12.560
<v Speaker 2>have a short holiday season or a short buying season

0:01:12.600 --> 0:01:18.320
<v Speaker 2>between Thanksgiving and Christmas. But again, my favorite time of

0:01:18.360 --> 0:01:22.680
<v Speaker 2>the year. It is one of my favorite holidays. I

0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:26.960
<v Speaker 2>have a tremendous amount of happy memories being in the

0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:30.880
<v Speaker 2>kitchen with my mom helping her cook. Going back to

0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:33.440
<v Speaker 2>when I was a kid, I've mentioned before that I

0:01:33.520 --> 0:01:36.600
<v Speaker 2>used to go grocery shopping with my father and enjoyed

0:01:36.640 --> 0:01:38.600
<v Speaker 2>doing that. I'm one of the few men I know

0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:43.880
<v Speaker 2>that actually enjoys grocery shopping. But when Thanksgiving came around,

0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:46.399
<v Speaker 2>I got four other brothers and so there were seven

0:01:46.440 --> 0:01:49.520
<v Speaker 2>of us in the family, and my dad's job was

0:01:49.560 --> 0:01:52.040
<v Speaker 2>pretty much to keep everybody out of the kitchen so

0:01:52.080 --> 0:01:55.200
<v Speaker 2>that Mom could get stuff done. But I would always

0:01:55.200 --> 0:01:57.280
<v Speaker 2>notice that she'd get a little stressed and you know,

0:01:57.480 --> 0:01:59.680
<v Speaker 2>trying to put together the meal, not only for the

0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:03.040
<v Speaker 2>seven of us, but grandparents would come over, her mom

0:02:03.120 --> 0:02:05.360
<v Speaker 2>and dad, and then usually we would have two or

0:02:05.400 --> 0:02:08.720
<v Speaker 2>three other guests, and sometime even more so putting everything

0:02:08.760 --> 0:02:11.120
<v Speaker 2>together and making sure everything came out on time. So

0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:14.320
<v Speaker 2>when I got to be I don't know, maybe ten eleven, twelve,

0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:17.560
<v Speaker 2>maybe ten or eleven, I started helping out in the kitchen.

0:02:17.800 --> 0:02:19.120
<v Speaker 3>And there are benefits to that.

0:02:19.200 --> 0:02:20.840
<v Speaker 2>You know, you get to lick the spoons, and you

0:02:20.880 --> 0:02:23.960
<v Speaker 2>get to you know, you know, eat all the stuff

0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:24.799
<v Speaker 2>as you're preparing.

0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:29.560
<v Speaker 3>But I picked up a lot and learned some.

0:02:29.480 --> 0:02:31.880
<v Speaker 2>Of the stuff that she does, did followed some of

0:02:31.880 --> 0:02:34.640
<v Speaker 2>her recipes and helped her out and that sort of thing.

0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:38.639
<v Speaker 2>My mom used to cook two turkeys, complete with the stuffing,

0:02:39.040 --> 0:02:42.520
<v Speaker 2>because she would buy the hens, which are a smaller turkey,

0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:45.800
<v Speaker 2>because she thought that She said that she thought that

0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:48.080
<v Speaker 2>the meat was a lot more tender and that it

0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:51.080
<v Speaker 2>was a lot better. So preparing two turkeys and stuffing

0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:53.600
<v Speaker 2>them and getting them ready and all that was quite

0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:56.359
<v Speaker 2>a task, and so I used to help her out. Now,

0:02:56.440 --> 0:02:59.960
<v Speaker 2>when my wife, Tara and I got together, we decide

0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:02.080
<v Speaker 2>it at one point that we were going to have

0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:05.760
<v Speaker 2>the family because we'd moved in with a bigger house.

0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:08.040
<v Speaker 2>We had a nice dining room, and thought, you know,

0:03:08.120 --> 0:03:11.400
<v Speaker 2>rather than having other relatives and so on. My family

0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:14.880
<v Speaker 2>was up in Columbus. Her family was down here, well

0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:18.320
<v Speaker 2>over in northern Kentucky where I live, and so we thought, well,

0:03:18.360 --> 0:03:21.079
<v Speaker 2>all right, we can't get up to Columbus, so let's

0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:25.200
<v Speaker 2>have everybody here. And so we planned to have this

0:03:25.440 --> 0:03:28.519
<v Speaker 2>Thanksgiving dinner. So, you know, we'd been watching all these

0:03:28.560 --> 0:03:31.360
<v Speaker 2>cooking shows and everything, and you know, when you watch

0:03:31.400 --> 0:03:33.440
<v Speaker 2>these cooking shows, it make it look so easy, and

0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:34.920
<v Speaker 2>you think, oh, yeah, we can try that.

0:03:35.040 --> 0:03:36.080
<v Speaker 3>Let's go ahead and do that.

0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:39.600
<v Speaker 2>So we scrounged, were not scrounged around, but looked around

0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:43.320
<v Speaker 2>for some recipes and got some stuff together and went

0:03:43.320 --> 0:03:46.040
<v Speaker 2>out and bought everything the weekend before and made sure

0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:48.800
<v Speaker 2>that we have it everything that we had the turkey

0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:51.160
<v Speaker 2>and time to thought and all that sort of thing.

0:03:52.000 --> 0:03:55.160
<v Speaker 2>But I was looking around for looking around for recipes

0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:58.119
<v Speaker 2>and stuff. Now I had my mom's cranberry recipe. Now

0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:00.520
<v Speaker 2>we used to call it cranberry's but I don't even

0:04:00.600 --> 0:04:02.400
<v Speaker 2>know what to call it. It's kind of like a

0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:06.880
<v Speaker 2>cranberry salad. It's not a compote or whatever, but it's

0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:10.000
<v Speaker 2>it's got cranberries, it's got yellow and of course sugar

0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:13.400
<v Speaker 2>in there, celery apples and pecans, and it goes into

0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:15.920
<v Speaker 2>kind of a mold if it sets up properly, but

0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:19.320
<v Speaker 2>even if it doesn't, it's still very tasty and very good.

0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:21.560
<v Speaker 2>But a lot of times it'll mold, if you you know,

0:04:21.600 --> 0:04:23.560
<v Speaker 2>because it's a bit well. I usually do a bigger

0:04:23.600 --> 0:04:27.760
<v Speaker 2>batch so it molds together and looks pretty cool. But

0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:32.760
<v Speaker 2>I love it, and so I had that recipe. I

0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:35.200
<v Speaker 2>kind of had an idea what my mom's recipe was,

0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:38.000
<v Speaker 2>because I'm having helped her in the kitchen and everything

0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:44.160
<v Speaker 2>I knew she used, well, of course butter, but onions

0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:49.040
<v Speaker 2>and celery. As far as the dressing was concerned, stuffings.

0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Let's be clear here, I'm talking about stuffing. We're not

0:04:52.680 --> 0:04:56.560
<v Speaker 2>talking about dressing. We're talking about stuffing in the bird.

0:04:57.440 --> 0:05:01.160
<v Speaker 2>But and she would add stage to but we were

0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:05.000
<v Speaker 2>looking around for a recipe, and we and Tara had

0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:07.320
<v Speaker 2>this cookbook. I don't even know where we found it,

0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:11.479
<v Speaker 2>where we were it popped up from. It probably came

0:05:11.520 --> 0:05:15.240
<v Speaker 2>with a magazine subscription or something, and when I found

0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:18.200
<v Speaker 2>it or when we saw it, apparently got gotten in

0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:20.599
<v Speaker 2>some moisture and maybe fell in a sink or something

0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:24.599
<v Speaker 2>like that, so it was part of it was well,

0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:27.320
<v Speaker 2>you could tell it had been wet. But I started

0:05:27.320 --> 0:05:29.520
<v Speaker 2>going through that and I was looking for just some

0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:34.440
<v Speaker 2>maybe some dessert recipes. But I came across this recipe

0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:38.520
<v Speaker 2>for a what they called a hurt herb stuffing, and

0:05:38.560 --> 0:05:41.520
<v Speaker 2>then all this how to stuff in terms of when

0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:44.440
<v Speaker 2>to get the bird, how long it takes to thought,

0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:47.359
<v Speaker 2>how many hours it's going to take to cook it stuffed,

0:05:47.360 --> 0:05:50.239
<v Speaker 2>and unstuffed, and then this recipe for this herb stuff

0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:51.760
<v Speaker 2>this herb stuffing.

0:05:51.839 --> 0:05:53.800
<v Speaker 3>And so got together.

0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:56.920
<v Speaker 2>You know, in addition what my mom used, this stuffing

0:05:57.000 --> 0:06:00.120
<v Speaker 2>has parsley and it almost sounds like a time a

0:06:00.200 --> 0:06:06.279
<v Speaker 2>Garfunkle song, parsley sage, rosemary time plus Marjoram which is

0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:10.000
<v Speaker 2>a spice, onions and celery. And so we got all

0:06:10.000 --> 0:06:13.520
<v Speaker 2>planned ahead, and we got everything all together, and I

0:06:13.560 --> 0:06:16.200
<v Speaker 2>did the cranberry stuff because it's got it. It takes

0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:17.839
<v Speaker 2>a couple of days for it to set up, so

0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:20.880
<v Speaker 2>you got to usually prepare that on a Monday, and

0:06:20.920 --> 0:06:24.920
<v Speaker 2>then it'll firm up on between Tuesday and Wednesday, so

0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:28.320
<v Speaker 2>it's nice and firm come Thursday. So we got that

0:06:28.720 --> 0:06:32.600
<v Speaker 2>mostly done, chopped up, and gotten ready. But on that Monday,

0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:36.600
<v Speaker 2>my wife got sick and started getting sick, and we're

0:06:36.640 --> 0:06:39.320
<v Speaker 2>not really sure what it was and how bad it

0:06:39.360 --> 0:06:41.680
<v Speaker 2>was going to be. So we just continue to get

0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:44.240
<v Speaker 2>all the preparations done and chopped what we could ahead

0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:46.440
<v Speaker 2>of time so that we'd be ready to stuff the

0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:50.720
<v Speaker 2>bird on Thursday. And by Tuesday it was pretty clear

0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:53.880
<v Speaker 2>that she was really getting sick and that we weren't

0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:56.640
<v Speaker 2>going to be able to have this, so contacted her sister,

0:06:56.680 --> 0:06:58.800
<v Speaker 2>and her sister said, well, you know, we've been having

0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:02.680
<v Speaker 2>Thanksgiving up here before and we've been having different holidays,

0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:05.279
<v Speaker 2>so you know, have everybody come up here. So I

0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:09.200
<v Speaker 2>went ahead and I wound up flying solo that day,

0:07:11.200 --> 0:07:15.559
<v Speaker 2>but it was and getting everything together. We got the shoot,

0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:17.880
<v Speaker 2>I had the mashed potatoes, the sweet potatoes, and of

0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:20.200
<v Speaker 2>course it did the dress, did the stuffing, and did

0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:24.360
<v Speaker 2>the cranberries, and had everything prepared and then just packed

0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:26.200
<v Speaker 2>it all up and took it up to her sister's

0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 2>house and she wasn't too far away, so it didn't

0:07:28.760 --> 0:07:30.280
<v Speaker 2>it didn't cool down too much, but.

0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:33.760
<v Speaker 3>Uh, it was, Uh, it was quite a day.

0:07:34.080 --> 0:07:37.680
<v Speaker 2>It's interesting that when you think back on it on stuff,

0:07:37.720 --> 0:07:40.360
<v Speaker 2>that when it's going to be when it seems like

0:07:40.480 --> 0:07:43.120
<v Speaker 2>it's going to be overwhelming, when it seems like it's

0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:47.280
<v Speaker 2>going to be a disaster. And fortunately this turned out

0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:50.480
<v Speaker 2>very well, which then cave is kind of this incentive

0:07:50.800 --> 0:07:53.680
<v Speaker 2>and everybody liked how the thing turned out, and so

0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:56.080
<v Speaker 2>they said, all right, from now on, you guys are

0:07:56.080 --> 0:08:00.000
<v Speaker 2>going to have the Thanksgiving every year. So it's evolved

0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:02.240
<v Speaker 2>into that and we've been doing it for Hanush it's

0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:05.080
<v Speaker 2>been about thirty four years now now as a real

0:08:05.160 --> 0:08:08.160
<v Speaker 2>treat coming up here in the next segment, we're going

0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:12.600
<v Speaker 2>to be talking with Michael Maddox. He is the Butterball

0:08:12.720 --> 0:08:16.280
<v Speaker 2>Turkey talk line expert, and we're going to talk a

0:08:16.320 --> 0:08:19.080
<v Speaker 2>little bit about Thanksgiving, how to prepare and all this

0:08:19.120 --> 0:08:22.400
<v Speaker 2>sort of stuff. And my words of encouragement is that

0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:26.800
<v Speaker 2>even though it may seem a little intimidating, but if

0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:30.080
<v Speaker 2>you follow the recipe, if you go by the plan,

0:08:30.880 --> 0:08:34.440
<v Speaker 2>it really turns out well. And when you hear people

0:08:34.520 --> 0:08:38.559
<v Speaker 2>talk about how difficult Thanksgiving is, with a little bit

0:08:38.600 --> 0:08:42.000
<v Speaker 2>of planning and a little bit of help, especially from

0:08:42.400 --> 0:08:45.400
<v Speaker 2>the family members and taking the time to do it,

0:08:45.400 --> 0:08:48.840
<v Speaker 2>it is certainly well worth it. Plus you are in

0:08:48.920 --> 0:08:53.079
<v Speaker 2>control of the leftover turkey for sandwiches. Later on, I'm

<v Speaker 10>or can you bring beverages and just kind of lightens

0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:57.400
<v Speaker 10>up their load and gives them a little more confidence

0:13:57.400 --> 0:13:59.079
<v Speaker 10>so that that they can focus and you.

0:13:59.040 --> 0:14:01.760
<v Speaker 11>Know turkey right, And it's to the larger size bulky.

0:14:01.840 --> 0:14:05.480
<v Speaker 11>But it's very easy if you follow some steps like that.

0:14:05.600 --> 0:14:08.280
<v Speaker 10>And we actually have a wonderful couple of open paand

0:14:08.360 --> 0:14:09.199
<v Speaker 10>method that we use.

0:14:09.559 --> 0:14:14.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and from experience wise, I mentioned in the previous

0:14:14.160 --> 0:14:17.280
<v Speaker 2>segment that I've been doing this for probably it's been

0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:21.360
<v Speaker 2>about thirty four years now, and it was amazing how

0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:24.840
<v Speaker 2>the first time I did it, just following the steps,

0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:29.320
<v Speaker 2>taking your time, following the instructions. How well everything turns out.

0:14:29.360 --> 0:14:30.440
<v Speaker 2>Of course, you got to do a little bit of

0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:34.320
<v Speaker 2>prep ahead of time. So as part of that, how

0:14:34.320 --> 0:14:36.320
<v Speaker 2>do you know what size of turkey to buy?

0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:38.880
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, great question, you know. So for us, we say

0:14:38.920 --> 0:14:41.720
<v Speaker 11>about a pound and a half to two pounds of turkey,

0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:42.160
<v Speaker 11>and that.

0:14:42.240 --> 0:14:44.920
<v Speaker 10>Gives you some leftovers, and so you can kind of

0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:46.360
<v Speaker 10>look and kind of think about how much you want

0:14:46.360 --> 0:14:46.560
<v Speaker 10>to have.

0:14:46.680 --> 0:14:49.400
<v Speaker 2>You can also go to Now wait a minute, Michael,

0:14:49.680 --> 0:14:52.560
<v Speaker 2>well you can't talk about just some leftovers.

0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:55.720
<v Speaker 3>We got to have lots of leftovers. We got to

0:14:55.760 --> 0:14:57.800
<v Speaker 3>have plenty of turkey sandwiches.

0:14:58.320 --> 0:15:02.280
<v Speaker 10>I am a thousand percent I'm a leftover pain. I'm

0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:04.600
<v Speaker 10>doing different things with it. And even you know, a

0:15:04.600 --> 0:15:06.720
<v Speaker 10>couple hours that takes them out of the refrigerator and

0:15:06.760 --> 0:15:08.560
<v Speaker 10>have a little snack as you're getting in there getting

0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:09.160
<v Speaker 10>something to drink.

0:15:09.200 --> 0:15:10.560
<v Speaker 11>The little snack is always tasty.

0:15:11.000 --> 0:15:14.600
<v Speaker 2>Exactly what's the best time to buy the turkey right now?

0:15:14.680 --> 0:15:17.760
<v Speaker 10>Butterball has a plenty of supply for the season like that,

0:15:17.920 --> 0:15:19.640
<v Speaker 10>So if you're going to go with the frozen turkey,

0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:22.880
<v Speaker 10>you can buy that anytime right now and put that

0:15:22.920 --> 0:15:25.320
<v Speaker 10>in your freezer. So you have it, and then also

0:15:25.440 --> 0:15:29.040
<v Speaker 10>thinking about the twentieth the week before Thanksgiving, November twentieth,

0:15:29.080 --> 0:15:32.040
<v Speaker 10>a butterball calls that National thaw Day, and you can

0:15:32.120 --> 0:15:34.400
<v Speaker 10>take that out of the freezer, leave it in the packaging,

0:15:34.400 --> 0:15:35.840
<v Speaker 10>and put it in a pan and put it in

0:15:35.880 --> 0:15:39.200
<v Speaker 10>the coldest part refrigerator or a secondary refrigerator.

0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:39.760
<v Speaker 11>And allowing that to thaw.

0:15:39.880 --> 0:15:42.720
<v Speaker 10>And a good little rule of thumb is four pounds

0:15:42.760 --> 0:15:44.720
<v Speaker 10>per day, so if you have a twenty pound turkey,

0:15:44.920 --> 0:15:47.640
<v Speaker 10>takes off five days of thought. So once a butterball

0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:49.920
<v Speaker 10>turkey is totally thought out, you have up to four

0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:52.479
<v Speaker 10>days to use it, which is great for the holidays

0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:55.680
<v Speaker 10>like that, whether it be December or for Thanksgiving.

0:15:56.000 --> 0:15:59.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and that's that's kind of the perfect timing because

0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:02.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, again it's a balk item and it's pretty big,

0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:04.600
<v Speaker 2>so you got to kind of go ahead of time

0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:06.760
<v Speaker 2>and kind of clear some stuff out of here freezer

0:16:06.880 --> 0:16:08.480
<v Speaker 2>or refrigerator in order.

0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:09.960
<v Speaker 3>To be able to accommodate this.

0:16:10.560 --> 0:16:12.480
<v Speaker 2>But it's well worth it because you want to do

0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:14.920
<v Speaker 2>it properly and you don't want to speed up the process.

0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:16.680
<v Speaker 2>You don't want to wait till the last minute and

0:16:16.680 --> 0:16:19.560
<v Speaker 2>have that stress on top of everything else, but again

0:16:20.280 --> 0:16:24.040

<v Speaker 2>The number upside down so you can look down is

<v Speaker 11>We'll help helping the host.

0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:59.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, absolutely, well, Michael Maddox as a Turkey talk line expert,

0:17:59.760 --> 0:18:01.760
<v Speaker 2>what's what most common mistakes people make?

0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:02.240
<v Speaker 7>You know?

0:18:02.520 --> 0:18:04.560
<v Speaker 11>And you had mentioned that earlier. It just when to

0:18:04.720 --> 0:18:05.320
<v Speaker 11>all that out.

0:18:05.400 --> 0:18:07.520
<v Speaker 10>And that's why I recommend that National Quality is put

0:18:07.520 --> 0:18:09.440
<v Speaker 10>that in your phone, right simple, put a little alarm

0:18:09.480 --> 0:18:10.280
<v Speaker 10>on your phone on the.

0:18:10.240 --> 0:18:11.400
<v Speaker 11>Twentieth of November.

0:18:11.960 --> 0:18:14.280
<v Speaker 10>If you're doing that in December, just kind of does

0:18:14.359 --> 0:18:16.879
<v Speaker 10>a little backwards map there four pounds per day. And

0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:19.480
<v Speaker 10>even myself I put that in my phone as well,

0:18:19.680 --> 0:18:21.240
<v Speaker 10>and so that way to remind me, hey, pull the

0:18:21.280 --> 0:18:23.520
<v Speaker 10>turkey out wherever you're going to have that, and that

0:18:23.640 --> 0:18:26.280
<v Speaker 10>four pounds per day, so that throwing not calling that

0:18:26.320 --> 0:18:28.400
<v Speaker 10>out early enough. We do have a cold water method

0:18:28.480 --> 0:18:31.720
<v Speaker 10>which will also work, and you're still working.

0:18:31.359 --> 0:18:33.679
<v Speaker 11>With that to do that. Another item.

0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:36.959
<v Speaker 10>Sometimes people will stuff that turkey in advance too early,

0:18:37.040 --> 0:18:39.120
<v Speaker 10>and we want to recommend that you stuff it right

0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:40.720
<v Speaker 10>before you put that in the oven. You can have

0:18:40.760 --> 0:18:43.399
<v Speaker 10>the stuff and pressed and ready, have the turkey ready

0:18:43.440 --> 0:18:45.920
<v Speaker 10>to go, but don't stuff it into your record where

0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:46.400
<v Speaker 10>you put that.

0:18:46.320 --> 0:18:46.760
<v Speaker 11>In the oven.

0:18:46.960 --> 0:18:50.199
<v Speaker 2>I'm guessing you're a turkey stuffer then I do like it.

0:18:50.240 --> 0:18:51.080
<v Speaker 11>I'm a fan of that.

0:18:51.160 --> 0:18:52.679
<v Speaker 10>You know, it depends, but you know, butter Ball has

0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:56.280
<v Speaker 10>some great products because if you have a small, small gathering,

0:18:56.320 --> 0:18:58.439
<v Speaker 10>they also have a bone in breast. They have some

0:18:58.560 --> 0:19:02.440
<v Speaker 10>bonus breast and buy meat as well. So it depends

0:19:02.480 --> 0:19:05.160
<v Speaker 10>on the You mentioned sandwiches of things. That's a great

0:19:05.200 --> 0:19:07.560
<v Speaker 10>thing as well. So having that addition to the turkey,

0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:09.720
<v Speaker 10>you can have a couple of other items as well.

0:19:09.920 --> 0:19:11.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that seems to be one of the things. Is

0:19:11.640 --> 0:19:13.919
<v Speaker 2>kind of like this toss up. I love to do

0:19:13.960 --> 0:19:17.000
<v Speaker 2>a poll out there, how many people prefer this stuffing

0:19:17.040 --> 0:19:19.720
<v Speaker 2>the turkey, and how many people prefer not to stuff

0:19:19.720 --> 0:19:23.560
<v Speaker 2>the turkey. Now, what's interesting, I'm we with the gatherings

0:19:23.600 --> 0:19:26.119
<v Speaker 2>that we've had, We've we've done well, We've stuffed the

0:19:26.160 --> 0:19:28.440
<v Speaker 2>turkey and then made some on the side. And I'm

0:19:28.440 --> 0:19:31.120
<v Speaker 2>telling you what the difference in taste. You can put

0:19:31.119 --> 0:19:34.080
<v Speaker 2>the same ingredients in, you can even add some broth

0:19:34.160 --> 0:19:36.080
<v Speaker 2>to it. But I'll tell you what, you just can't

0:19:36.080 --> 0:19:38.399
<v Speaker 2>beat the flavor of it being inside the turkey and

0:19:38.440 --> 0:19:40.520
<v Speaker 2>getting those juices that is just incredible.

0:19:40.600 --> 0:19:42.679
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, And the key of that stuff turkey is then

0:19:42.760 --> 0:19:45.080
<v Speaker 10>take a little longer to cook and maybe buy that

0:19:45.320 --> 0:19:48.560
<v Speaker 10>whole turkey. We actually have a little chart on there

0:19:48.600 --> 0:19:51.399
<v Speaker 10>as far as timing stopped or unstuffed.

0:19:50.880 --> 0:19:53.320
<v Speaker 11>Give you an idea, and you guys in the in the.

0:19:53.280 --> 0:19:55.560
<v Speaker 10>End, we're looking for one hundred and seventy degrees in

0:19:55.640 --> 0:19:58.280
<v Speaker 10>the breast and thigh, which is just wonderful eating quality.

0:19:58.640 --> 0:20:01.280
<v Speaker 10>And then the stuffing if you still that minimum one

0:20:01.359 --> 0:20:04.359
<v Speaker 10>sixty five, which is wonderful for that stuffing minimum one

0:20:04.440 --> 0:20:05.000
<v Speaker 10>sixty five.

0:20:05.240 --> 0:20:09.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And with the various thermometers and stuff and the

0:20:09.119 --> 0:20:12.520
<v Speaker 2>availability of the cooking tools, it's not hard to figure

0:20:12.560 --> 0:20:14.080
<v Speaker 2>that out. I mean you just do the you know,

0:20:14.600 --> 0:20:16.480
<v Speaker 2>stick the thermometer in there and know and then you

0:20:16.520 --> 0:20:19.919
<v Speaker 2>know when to gauge, and it'll, I mean it'll it

0:20:20.040 --> 0:20:22.760
<v Speaker 2>is right on the money. When you follow the instructions

0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:25.119
<v Speaker 2>and do it to the proper temperture, it's going to

0:20:25.160 --> 0:20:26.960
<v Speaker 2>come out moist. And I think that's one of the

0:20:27.000 --> 0:20:30.240
<v Speaker 2>things a lot of people have a problem with Michael

0:20:30.240 --> 0:20:34.159
<v Speaker 2>Mannix and Butterball Turkey Expert talk talk line Expert. A

0:20:34.160 --> 0:20:36.879
<v Speaker 2>lot of people are intimidated because again, a lot of

0:20:36.880 --> 0:20:39.600
<v Speaker 2>turkeys sometimes are dry. But if you follow the instructions,

0:20:39.640 --> 0:20:40.680
<v Speaker 2>it's going to come out great.

0:20:41.040 --> 0:20:41.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:20:41.280 --> 0:20:43.360
<v Speaker 10>We even you have a how to videos at butterball

0:20:43.400 --> 0:20:46.320

<v Speaker 10>everything right.

0:20:58.359 --> 0:21:00.400
<v Speaker 2>And what are some of the strangest questions you guys

0:21:00.440 --> 0:21:01.840
<v Speaker 2>have gotten over the years.

0:21:02.280 --> 0:21:05.560

0:21:08.600 --> 0:21:10.320
<v Speaker 10>had family over and everything.

0:21:10.000 --> 0:21:11.960
<v Speaker 11>Like this, and they weren't sure. And all of a

0:21:12.000 --> 0:21:12.760
<v Speaker 11>sudden I was.

0:21:12.680 --> 0:21:14.720
<v Speaker 10>Talking to them, and again they got very quiet, almost

0:21:14.760 --> 0:21:18.040
<v Speaker 10>a whisper. I could barely hear them. They were hiding

0:21:18.600 --> 0:21:21.560
<v Speaker 10>in the closet behind the winner coach, asking me questions

0:21:21.600 --> 0:21:23.760
<v Speaker 10>because their in laws that just arrived and they weren't

0:21:23.760 --> 0:21:26.640

<v Speaker 3>We certainly appreciate.

0:25:53.880 --> 0:25:57.439
<v Speaker 2>That that was such a whot to speak with Michael Maddox,

0:25:57.520 --> 0:26:01.600
<v Speaker 2>Butterball Turkey talk line expert. And I'm telling you during

0:26:01.640 --> 0:26:03.920
<v Speaker 2>the entire time and getting ready for it, and talking

0:26:04.040 --> 0:26:07.760
<v Speaker 2>getting ready for the interview, all the flood of memories

0:26:08.000 --> 0:26:11.679
<v Speaker 2>of over the Thanksgiving years, going back to with my

0:26:11.840 --> 0:26:15.520
<v Speaker 2>mom and then the Thanksgiving we took over, and I

0:26:15.520 --> 0:26:17.840
<v Speaker 2>guess I failed to mention first I was looking through

0:26:17.840 --> 0:26:21.240
<v Speaker 2>my notes. I failed to mention that my initial solo

0:26:21.480 --> 0:26:24.119
<v Speaker 2>where my wife got sick and I had to wind

0:26:24.200 --> 0:26:28.439
<v Speaker 2>up doing it by myself. We were cooking, We cooked

0:26:28.480 --> 0:26:33.560
<v Speaker 2>for twenty people that year, and I was absolutely shocked

0:26:34.000 --> 0:26:36.639
<v Speaker 2>exactly how well it came out. I mean, you know,

0:26:36.840 --> 0:26:38.800
<v Speaker 2>again with a little bit of planning and a little

0:26:38.800 --> 0:26:41.159
<v Speaker 2>bit of forethought ahead of time. Then over the years,

0:26:42.240 --> 0:26:45.480
<v Speaker 2>last few years, her son, who's a chef, decided that

0:26:45.560 --> 0:26:48.000
<v Speaker 2>he was going to take it over and do it,

0:26:48.080 --> 0:26:52.600
<v Speaker 2>and of course him being at a certain facilities and

0:26:52.640 --> 0:26:56.240
<v Speaker 2>he'd having to prepare the stuff for that facility for

0:26:56.280 --> 0:26:56.760
<v Speaker 2>that day.

0:26:57.119 --> 0:26:59.520
<v Speaker 3>We would go over there or then eventually go to

0:26:59.600 --> 0:27:00.000
<v Speaker 3>his house.

0:27:00.040 --> 0:27:02.720
<v Speaker 2>For the last couple of years it's been he's taken

0:27:02.760 --> 0:27:06.160
<v Speaker 2>over the duties, but he moved out of town and

0:27:06.400 --> 0:27:10.359
<v Speaker 2>his daughter is still living here and she can't get off.

0:27:10.440 --> 0:27:12.760
<v Speaker 2>So he said, hey, how about if we have it

0:27:12.800 --> 0:27:15.879
<v Speaker 2>at your house? And it's fine. So we're back at it.

0:27:15.920 --> 0:27:18.680
<v Speaker 2>We're back cooking the meal this year.

0:27:18.720 --> 0:27:19.960
<v Speaker 3>So I'm really looking forward to it.

0:27:20.040 --> 0:27:24.240
<v Speaker 2>It's going to be a lot of fun, just all

0:27:24.240 --> 0:27:26.879
<v Speaker 2>the like I said, all the memories of all the

0:27:26.920 --> 0:27:32.080
<v Speaker 2>different times and the actual preparation and putting it together

0:27:32.200 --> 0:27:35.240
<v Speaker 2>and then having everybody all around the table and the

0:27:35.359 --> 0:27:38.760
<v Speaker 2>enjoyment of the day, and then of course the leftovers.

0:27:39.520 --> 0:27:42.359
<v Speaker 3>Can't forget the leftovers. But it was always a lot

0:27:42.359 --> 0:27:44.280
<v Speaker 3>of fun. I always look forward to it every year.

0:27:45.000 --> 0:27:47.160
<v Speaker 2>So again my thanks to Michael Maddocks and I hope

0:27:47.200 --> 0:27:48.639
<v Speaker 2>you got a lot out of that. I will be

0:27:48.720 --> 0:27:52.280
<v Speaker 2>posting some information about that on Facebook in terms of

0:27:52.640 --> 0:27:56.080
<v Speaker 2>where you can contact. Of course, you a Butterball Hotline

0:27:56.359 --> 0:27:58.520
<v Speaker 2>and I'll tell you what it is a great resource.

0:27:59.320 --> 0:28:02.800
<v Speaker 2>They will walk you through just about anything, and there's

0:28:02.960 --> 0:28:06.639
<v Speaker 2>how to videos as Michael mentioned, and really great.

0:28:06.760 --> 0:28:10.520
<v Speaker 3>So, like I said, I'm really getting excited.

0:28:10.840 --> 0:28:12.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if you can tell, but I'm really

0:28:12.760 --> 0:28:16.000
<v Speaker 2>getting excited looking forward to Thanksgiving holidays, and I hope

0:28:16.040 --> 0:28:16.600
<v Speaker 2>you are too.

0:28:16.920 --> 0:28:17.080
<v Speaker 3>Now.

0:28:17.080 --> 0:28:18.399
<v Speaker 2>I know a lot of you that are out on

0:28:18.440 --> 0:28:21.239
<v Speaker 2>the road. You have to postpone your things. I know

0:28:21.280 --> 0:28:22.800
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people that are in the sort of

0:28:22.880 --> 0:28:27.399
<v Speaker 2>food service industry and it's kind of difficult when that

0:28:27.640 --> 0:28:30.520
<v Speaker 2>is the big day. Then you have to kind of

0:28:30.760 --> 0:28:35.840
<v Speaker 2>plan your holiday different from the actual Thanksgiving celebration.

0:28:36.240 --> 0:28:39.600
<v Speaker 3>And those of you that are out there on the highway.

0:28:39.600 --> 0:28:42.120
<v Speaker 2>Those of you that will be on the road making

0:28:42.120 --> 0:28:45.240
<v Speaker 2>sure that our holiday that we have the food on

0:28:45.400 --> 0:28:47.800
<v Speaker 2>the shelves that we can get in order to be

0:28:47.960 --> 0:28:50.640
<v Speaker 2>with our families. I hope a lot of people out

0:28:50.640 --> 0:28:53.440
<v Speaker 2>there appreciate it. When you're traveling back and forth, if

0:28:53.440 --> 0:28:56.240
<v Speaker 2>you're going to visit relatives and you see these trucks

0:28:56.280 --> 0:28:59.280
<v Speaker 2>on the road, know that they are out there working

0:28:59.600 --> 0:29:02.400
<v Speaker 2>so that you can have a great holiday. And of

0:29:02.400 --> 0:29:05.200
<v Speaker 2>course they have to postpone theres either have there's the

0:29:05.240 --> 0:29:08.240
<v Speaker 2>weekend before or then the weekend when they get back

0:29:08.280 --> 0:29:12.000
<v Speaker 2>off the road. So again it's always a great time

0:29:12.040 --> 0:29:16.280
<v Speaker 2>of year. But appreciate all those restaurant workers, service industry

0:29:16.320 --> 0:29:19.239
<v Speaker 2>people that actually have to work on that day, So

0:29:19.560 --> 0:29:22.600
<v Speaker 2>hats off to them and knowing full well that they're

0:29:22.640 --> 0:29:26.320
<v Speaker 2>going to have to celebrate their days different than the

0:29:26.360 --> 0:29:29.600
<v Speaker 2>rest of the country. Last week we got the US

0:29:29.600 --> 0:29:32.120
<v Speaker 2>weekly jobless claims and again this is what the third

0:29:32.200 --> 0:29:34.880
<v Speaker 2>or fourth week that the government shut down now in

0:29:35.480 --> 0:29:39.440
<v Speaker 2>a full month. And again I can't emphasize that. I

0:29:39.480 --> 0:29:42.520
<v Speaker 2>can't I've mentioned it before, but I've been interested in

0:29:42.560 --> 0:29:46.560
<v Speaker 2>the fact that these numbers they keep talking about, Well,

0:29:46.600 --> 0:29:48.840
<v Speaker 2>you got to depend on the Bureau of Labor Statistics

0:29:48.840 --> 0:29:51.760
<v Speaker 2>for this, and you got to depend on the Conference

0:29:51.800 --> 0:29:54.800
<v Speaker 2>Board for this information, the Census Bureau for this, and

0:29:55.680 --> 0:29:58.640
<v Speaker 2>all this government stuff. And I keep emphasizing the fact

0:29:58.640 --> 0:30:05.240
<v Speaker 2>that the federal Reserve has twenty three thousand employees. Now,

0:30:05.400 --> 0:30:07.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what the hell they do, but they

0:30:07.960 --> 0:30:11.800
<v Speaker 2>sure aren't doing anything for our economy. They're not doing

0:30:11.880 --> 0:30:15.040
<v Speaker 2>anything in terms of well, I'm sorry, and let me

0:30:15.080 --> 0:30:18.040
<v Speaker 2>take that back. They are doing something for the economy,

0:30:18.040 --> 0:30:20.200
<v Speaker 2>they're screwing it up by having our.

0:30:20.160 --> 0:30:21.680
<v Speaker 3>Interest rates to darnheigh.

0:30:21.840 --> 0:30:24.360
<v Speaker 2>I keep emphasizing the fact that if you compare our

0:30:24.480 --> 0:30:26.600
<v Speaker 2>interest rates to the rest of the world, to the

0:30:26.640 --> 0:30:31.360
<v Speaker 2>Western world, to the democracies out there. You look at Japan,

0:30:31.440 --> 0:30:33.920
<v Speaker 2>you look at Europe, you look at their their exchange,

0:30:34.000 --> 0:30:37.240
<v Speaker 2>their exchange rate, and their overnight funds rate, it's all

0:30:37.280 --> 0:30:39.800
<v Speaker 2>in the one and a half to two percent range.

0:30:39.960 --> 0:30:42.680
<v Speaker 2>So ours at three point seventy five to four percent,

0:30:43.120 --> 0:30:46.440
<v Speaker 2>is almost double that. And if you're talking about spurring

0:30:46.440 --> 0:30:49.040
<v Speaker 2>the economy, which we will be talking about in some

0:30:49.160 --> 0:30:51.960
<v Speaker 2>of these stories, you know, this is the thing that

0:30:51.960 --> 0:30:54.680
<v Speaker 2>would spur the economy. And every time they talk about

0:30:54.720 --> 0:30:57.560
<v Speaker 2>these things, I'm surprised that, you know, it doesn't sink

0:30:57.600 --> 0:31:00.520
<v Speaker 2>into their thick heads at the Federal Reserve. And that line,

0:31:00.600 --> 0:31:05.760
<v Speaker 2>Jerry Powell finally decides that okay, you know, he claims

0:31:05.800 --> 0:31:09.280
<v Speaker 2>their mandate is to make sure that inflation is under

0:31:09.320 --> 0:31:12.800
<v Speaker 2>control and that the job market is steady. Well, the

0:31:12.800 --> 0:31:16.360
<v Speaker 2>way you keep inflation low, I think I said inflation low.

0:31:16.600 --> 0:31:21.040
<v Speaker 2>Keeping inflation low is making sure there's enough productivity. If

0:31:21.080 --> 0:31:24.320
<v Speaker 2>the amount of productivity is high and the demand is steady,

0:31:24.560 --> 0:31:28.120
<v Speaker 2>those prices go down. And if the interest rates are low,

0:31:28.240 --> 0:31:31.160
<v Speaker 2>people have more money in their pocket. They can go

0:31:31.200 --> 0:31:33.520
<v Speaker 2>out and buy things. They can go out and buy

0:31:33.560 --> 0:31:37.480
<v Speaker 2>a car, they can finance an equipment for their business,

0:31:37.560 --> 0:31:40.360
<v Speaker 2>or buy a new truck, or buy some trucks for

0:31:40.400 --> 0:31:43.360
<v Speaker 2>a fleet. Those are the things that stimulate the economy.

0:31:43.400 --> 0:31:45.880
<v Speaker 2>And then they claim that their other mandate is to

0:31:45.920 --> 0:31:49.520
<v Speaker 2>make sure that the job market is strong. Well, if

0:31:49.520 --> 0:31:52.200
<v Speaker 2>people are buying stuff, that means stuff's going to have

0:31:52.240 --> 0:31:54.560
<v Speaker 2>to be made. If stuff's going to have to be made,

0:31:54.680 --> 0:31:57.160
<v Speaker 2>there's going to have to be employees there to make

0:31:57.200 --> 0:32:00.560
<v Speaker 2>that stuff. And once the stuff is being made, then

0:32:00.600 --> 0:32:04.239
<v Speaker 2>it's got to be transported by people employees. Then it

0:32:04.280 --> 0:32:06.480
<v Speaker 2>has to go to the warehouses, go to the stores,

0:32:06.680 --> 0:32:09.040
<v Speaker 2>and the people in the stores have to be there

0:32:09.160 --> 0:32:11.640
<v Speaker 2>in order to do so. That grows the economy. And

0:32:11.680 --> 0:32:14.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't understand why this doesn't get through their thick heads,

0:32:14.120 --> 0:32:19.760
<v Speaker 2>but again again a big proponent of supply side economics.

0:32:20.200 --> 0:32:23.400
<v Speaker 2>Number of Americans filing for applications for unemployment benefits fell

0:32:23.480 --> 0:32:29.000
<v Speaker 2>last week, economists estimated on Thursday. Now again this is falling. Okay,

0:32:29.200 --> 0:32:32.600
<v Speaker 2>it's all within a range. So what happened to all

0:32:32.640 --> 0:32:36.320
<v Speaker 2>this stuff about oh, if terriffs going to effect, if

0:32:36.880 --> 0:32:40.040
<v Speaker 2>Trump does, is on Liberation Day when you saw what

0:32:40.520 --> 0:32:43.960
<v Speaker 2>the well on Liberation Day April the second, the stock

0:32:44.040 --> 0:32:47.400
<v Speaker 2>market tanked, I mean it went down what more than

0:32:47.440 --> 0:32:51.440
<v Speaker 2>a thousand points and everybody was in a panic. And now,

0:32:52.280 --> 0:32:56.600
<v Speaker 2>including that downturn, just since the first of the year,

0:32:56.720 --> 0:33:00.880
<v Speaker 2>the stock market is up thirty four percent, in record

0:33:00.960 --> 0:33:03.840
<v Speaker 2>highs day after day after day. Maybe a pause here,

0:33:04.120 --> 0:33:06.600
<v Speaker 2>but they've been setting record high not for the week,

0:33:06.720 --> 0:33:08.400
<v Speaker 2>not for the month, not for the year.

0:33:08.440 --> 0:33:12.880
<v Speaker 3>But historically in the history of the stock market.

0:33:13.360 --> 0:33:16.960
<v Speaker 2>And then you look at unemployment, and they're claiming that, oh, well,

0:33:16.960 --> 0:33:18.640
<v Speaker 2>there was going to be all this unemployment, there was

0:33:18.640 --> 0:33:19.840
<v Speaker 2>going to be a recession.

0:33:19.480 --> 0:33:20.760
<v Speaker 3>As a result of these teriffs.

0:33:20.880 --> 0:33:24.239
<v Speaker 2>And yet we've got unemployment well within the range, and

0:33:24.480 --> 0:33:27.040
<v Speaker 2>the initial job of claims all within the well. The

0:33:27.160 --> 0:33:29.800
<v Speaker 2>range that has been there has been for a number

0:33:29.840 --> 0:33:33.360
<v Speaker 2>of years. Let's see where was I here? Assessmated Thursday

0:33:33.360 --> 0:33:37.360
<v Speaker 2>and I see national filing application. Unemployment benefits fell last week.

0:33:37.400 --> 0:33:40.960
<v Speaker 2>Economists estimated on Thursday the new job opportunities for those

0:33:40.960 --> 0:33:44.440
<v Speaker 2>who are laid off remained scarce amid reluctance by businesses

0:33:44.520 --> 0:33:48.080
<v Speaker 2>to boost hiring because of interest rates.

0:33:48.320 --> 0:33:50.720
<v Speaker 3>I'll add that JP Morgan calculated.

0:33:51.680 --> 0:33:54.680
<v Speaker 2>Let's see initial job as claims for state unemployment benefits

0:33:54.760 --> 0:33:57.800
<v Speaker 2>dropped to a seasonally adjusted two hundred and nineteen thousand

0:33:57.880 --> 0:34:01.440
<v Speaker 2>for the week ended October the twenty, down from two

0:34:01.520 --> 0:34:05.160
<v Speaker 2>hundred and thirty two thousand the previous week. Estimates from

0:34:05.200 --> 0:34:09.120
<v Speaker 2>Goldman Sachs and Nationwide were within that ballpark. Claims data

0:34:09.120 --> 0:34:14.760
<v Speaker 2>were unavailable for Arizona, Massachusetts. Massachusetts again was late last

0:34:15.200 --> 0:34:17.400
<v Speaker 2>last week with their numbers and now added to the

0:34:17.440 --> 0:34:21.120
<v Speaker 2>list as Washington d C. Conomists made assumptions for the

0:34:21.200 --> 0:34:24.440
<v Speaker 2>three in line with what the Labor Department would normally

0:34:24.480 --> 0:34:28.000
<v Speaker 2>do when data is not available. Despite the US government

0:34:28.080 --> 0:34:31.600
<v Speaker 2>being shut down for almost a month, states continue to

0:34:31.640 --> 0:34:34.760
<v Speaker 2>collect the claims data submitting it to the Labor Department.

0:34:35.120 --> 0:34:40.680
<v Speaker 2>Economists are accessing the data and using seasonal adjustment factors.

0:34:40.880 --> 0:34:44.160
<v Speaker 2>The government published early this year to make the weekly

0:34:44.239 --> 0:34:48.319
<v Speaker 2>claims assessments estimates, so they're able to do this. We

0:34:48.400 --> 0:34:51.319
<v Speaker 2>don't need to wait on the Bureau of Labor Statistics

0:34:51.360 --> 0:34:54.640
<v Speaker 2>to do this. Goldman Sacks, JP Morgan, I think City

0:34:54.680 --> 0:34:57.800
<v Speaker 2>Bank last week, that'll mention them here. But Goldman Sacks

0:34:57.800 --> 0:35:02.880
<v Speaker 2>and Nationwide are doing this and pretty much doing a

0:35:02.920 --> 0:35:06.640
<v Speaker 2>fairly decent job. Claims that current estimate levels suggests the

0:35:06.719 --> 0:35:11.680
<v Speaker 2>labor market remain stable and would argue against additional interest

0:35:11.760 --> 0:35:15.440
<v Speaker 2>rate cuts from the Federal Reserve. Says who it's a

0:35:15.440 --> 0:35:18.120
<v Speaker 2>good time to stop here, because we'll pick this up

0:35:18.160 --> 0:35:21.320
<v Speaker 2>on the other side. I'm Kevin Gordon, America's Trucking Network,

0:35:21.600 --> 0:35:23.759
<v Speaker 2>seven hundred WLW.

0:35:24.680 --> 0:35:26.560
<v Speaker 3>This is Jim Hello, gym started.

0:35:29.440 --> 0:35:34.960
<v Speaker 2>This is America'structing Network, seven hundred WLW talking about this

0:35:35.440 --> 0:35:40.120
<v Speaker 2>unemployment claims and again, one of the sentences in here

0:35:40.760 --> 0:35:44.680
<v Speaker 2>labor market remains stable and would urge against interest rate

0:35:44.719 --> 0:35:49.279
<v Speaker 2>cuts from the Federal Reserve. Why if you're trying to

0:35:49.320 --> 0:35:52.120
<v Speaker 2>spur the economy. And as we talk about when we

0:35:52.200 --> 0:35:55.680
<v Speaker 2>talk about oil and gas prices, they always say, and

0:35:55.760 --> 0:35:58.279
<v Speaker 2>it's like so many of these articles if you read

0:35:58.280 --> 0:36:00.239
<v Speaker 2>them on a regular basis. If you fall all of

0:36:00.239 --> 0:36:04.120
<v Speaker 2>this particular economic news and stuff, you will notice that

0:36:04.200 --> 0:36:09.400
<v Speaker 2>it's like they have this boiler plate story available, and

0:36:09.520 --> 0:36:12.160
<v Speaker 2>all they do is they go back in and they

0:36:12.280 --> 0:36:15.239
<v Speaker 2>drop in the current numbers. Because a lot of the

0:36:15.239 --> 0:36:17.279
<v Speaker 2>phrases are the same, a lot of the stuff that

0:36:17.320 --> 0:36:19.719
<v Speaker 2>they talk about is the same. Whenever they talk about

0:36:19.840 --> 0:36:23.040
<v Speaker 2>interest rates and they talk about how they will say

0:36:23.360 --> 0:36:27.480
<v Speaker 2>interest rates, having interest rates low will stimulate spending by

0:36:27.520 --> 0:36:30.920
<v Speaker 2>the consumer and actually increase demand as far as the

0:36:30.920 --> 0:36:34.320
<v Speaker 2>oil is concerned, which could lead to additional oil prices.

0:36:34.520 --> 0:36:37.880
<v Speaker 2>Now that is from an investors standpoint, somebody who has

0:36:37.920 --> 0:36:41.200
<v Speaker 2>invested in the oil market and so on. For us

0:36:41.560 --> 0:36:45.040
<v Speaker 2>having the demand there and with the supply available that

0:36:45.200 --> 0:36:47.839
<v Speaker 2>is available, those prices have been coming down, as we've

0:36:47.880 --> 0:36:51.440
<v Speaker 2>been seeing through some of the numbers. But again, it

0:36:51.480 --> 0:36:54.920
<v Speaker 2>seems like every time somebody tries to, well, gee whiz,

0:36:54.920 --> 0:36:56.920
<v Speaker 2>maybe we want to slow this down over.

0:36:56.719 --> 0:36:59.160
<v Speaker 3>Here, put a little bit of pressure over here, they.

0:36:59.040 --> 0:37:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Wind up brewing things up instead of the market taking

0:37:04.040 --> 0:37:07.520
<v Speaker 2>care of itself. And as they keep talking about in here,

0:37:07.719 --> 0:37:10.680
<v Speaker 2>they keep talking about in all these different stories, how

0:37:10.880 --> 0:37:14.839
<v Speaker 2>the American public is resilient unbelievable. Getting back to this

0:37:14.880 --> 0:37:20.359
<v Speaker 2>particular story again, job was claims fall economists estimate they'd

0:37:20.400 --> 0:37:23.600
<v Speaker 2>gone down from down to two hundred nineteen thousand, down

0:37:23.600 --> 0:37:26.240
<v Speaker 2>from two hundred and thirty two thousand the previous week,

0:37:27.760 --> 0:37:32.879
<v Speaker 2>or in Klatchkin financial market economists at nationwide. This will

0:37:32.920 --> 0:37:35.319
<v Speaker 2>boast through the view that those at the FED who

0:37:35.360 --> 0:37:38.880
<v Speaker 2>think another rate cut isn't necessary in December. US Central

0:37:38.880 --> 0:37:42.200
<v Speaker 2>Bank on Wednesday of last week cut benchmark overnight interest

0:37:42.280 --> 0:37:45.080
<v Speaker 2>rate to another twenty five basis points to three point

0:37:45.120 --> 0:37:48.600
<v Speaker 2>seventy five to four percent range. FED Chairman Lion Jerry

0:37:48.600 --> 0:37:51.040
<v Speaker 2>Potwell I put Lyne Jerry in there. That wasn't part

0:37:51.040 --> 0:37:53.719
<v Speaker 2>of the story, but it should be told reporters the

0:37:53.760 --> 0:37:56.000
<v Speaker 2>further reduction of the policy rate in the summer meeting

0:37:56.320 --> 0:38:01.520
<v Speaker 2>was not a foregone conclusion. No materials shift towards employment contraction,

0:38:02.080 --> 0:38:04.400
<v Speaker 2>which is what they said was going to happen as

0:38:04.440 --> 0:38:07.160
<v Speaker 2>a result of tariffs. They also said that there was

0:38:07.200 --> 0:38:09.839
<v Speaker 2>going to be rampant inflation, that there was possibly going

0:38:09.880 --> 0:38:13.480
<v Speaker 2>to be a recession. None of that's on the horizon

0:38:13.560 --> 0:38:15.600
<v Speaker 2>right now, unless, of course, you listen to the spoon

0:38:15.640 --> 0:38:18.840
<v Speaker 2>federal urgitators in the mainstream media, who, in my opinion,

0:38:19.080 --> 0:38:22.920
<v Speaker 2>keep trying to manufacture a recession. But we're not letting

0:38:22.920 --> 0:38:25.000
<v Speaker 2>them have We're not letting them, We're not having any

0:38:25.040 --> 0:38:28.640
<v Speaker 2>part of it. Still, there has been a pickup and layoffs,

0:38:28.680 --> 0:38:33.080
<v Speaker 2>with economists blaming low demand for labor because of economic uncertainty,

0:38:33.360 --> 0:38:38.160
<v Speaker 2>tariffs on imports, and companies embracing artificial intelligence. Let me

0:38:38.239 --> 0:38:39.839
<v Speaker 2>just go off on a little bit of tangent here.

0:38:39.880 --> 0:38:42.320
<v Speaker 2>I've been seeing a lot of stuff, you know, obviously,

0:38:42.320 --> 0:38:47.480
<v Speaker 2>in artificial intelligence has been in the in the discussion

0:38:47.520 --> 0:38:51.240
<v Speaker 2>over the last several weeks, and a lot of companies

0:38:51.239 --> 0:38:54.759
<v Speaker 2>are moving to that and trying to eliminate different physical

0:38:54.800 --> 0:38:59.160
<v Speaker 2>presence of employees and replacing that with artificial intelligence. A

0:38:59.200 --> 0:39:02.040
<v Speaker 2>little bit of word of caution out there. I've been

0:39:02.080 --> 0:39:05.360
<v Speaker 2>seeing some stuff where people have relied on some of

0:39:05.360 --> 0:39:09.960
<v Speaker 2>the chat, GBT, GPT and some of these other things

0:39:10.080 --> 0:39:14.239
<v Speaker 2>for their information or to write certain documents for them,

0:39:14.840 --> 0:39:17.680
<v Speaker 2>and some of the stuff, and with apparently, I guess

0:39:17.719 --> 0:39:21.120
<v Speaker 2>people have assumed that this information is right, because after all,

0:39:21.160 --> 0:39:26.640
<v Speaker 2>it is artificial intelligence, right, And so what they found

0:39:26.760 --> 0:39:30.960
<v Speaker 2>is that some of this information has been wrong, and

0:39:31.040 --> 0:39:34.640
<v Speaker 2>they've been quite embarrassed in their presentations that you know,

0:39:34.719 --> 0:39:38.799
<v Speaker 2>making a proposal or something and your information is wrong

0:39:38.880 --> 0:39:40.320
<v Speaker 2>and that people know it's wrong.

0:39:41.160 --> 0:39:42.239
<v Speaker 3>That's pretty embarrassing.

0:39:42.719 --> 0:39:46.960
<v Speaker 2>So this this business, you know, artificial intelligence, it's a

0:39:47.040 --> 0:39:50.319
<v Speaker 2>matter of algorithms. It's a matter of input. And the

0:39:50.400 --> 0:39:53.719
<v Speaker 2>old thing, going back to the days when computers were

0:39:53.719 --> 0:39:58.040
<v Speaker 2>first being talked about, it's garbage in, garbage out. Once

0:39:58.080 --> 0:40:01.200
<v Speaker 2>you put the garbage in, unless if you change it,

0:40:01.440 --> 0:40:03.600
<v Speaker 2>you're just gonna get garbage out.

0:40:03.719 --> 0:40:04.080
<v Speaker 3>And so.

0:40:05.680 --> 0:40:10.440
<v Speaker 2>It depends on who's programming this, what type of schematics

0:40:10.440 --> 0:40:13.839
<v Speaker 2>they're putting into it. And I'm telling you what, when

0:40:13.920 --> 0:40:16.439
<v Speaker 2>you start using stuff, I don't care whether you're trying

0:40:16.440 --> 0:40:19.680
<v Speaker 2>to use your remote on your TV and coordinate between

0:40:19.680 --> 0:40:22.680
<v Speaker 2>your streaming service and your cable service, or if you're

0:40:22.680 --> 0:40:27.960
<v Speaker 2>trying to do a Bluetooth connection, as I have done

0:40:28.040 --> 0:40:31.680
<v Speaker 2>in the past, trying to maybe record an interview that

0:40:31.760 --> 0:40:34.040
<v Speaker 2>I can't. You know, you can't interview somebody at midnight,

0:40:34.520 --> 0:40:38.160
<v Speaker 2>So a lot of times if they're unavailable, I'll record

0:40:38.160 --> 0:40:39.600
<v Speaker 2>the interview ahead of time, so I have to do

0:40:39.640 --> 0:40:44.840
<v Speaker 2>that via Bluetooth and trying to get that up and running.

0:40:45.200 --> 0:40:47.240
<v Speaker 2>My wife and I will joke all the time about

0:40:47.360 --> 0:40:49.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, stuff having to do with the computer where

0:40:49.040 --> 0:40:52.560
<v Speaker 2>the computer freezes, and we'll say the path thing between

0:40:52.640 --> 0:40:55.480
<v Speaker 2>us is thank god we're not in an airplane, because

0:40:56.000 --> 0:40:59.200
<v Speaker 2>by the time we get this rebooted and get back

0:40:59.280 --> 0:41:01.920
<v Speaker 2>up and running either the television, the remote, coordinating these

0:41:01.920 --> 0:41:04.080
<v Speaker 2>things and whatever, we'd have crashed by then.

0:41:04.560 --> 0:41:06.960
<v Speaker 3>And so we get more and more reliant.

0:41:07.000 --> 0:41:09.520
<v Speaker 2>I saw a story the other day where one of

0:41:09.600 --> 0:41:13.520
<v Speaker 2>these agencies they say there was a glitch was at

0:41:13.600 --> 0:41:18.279
<v Speaker 2>ASW that had overnight. They had this glitch because they

0:41:18.440 --> 0:41:22.440
<v Speaker 2>instead a lot of companies, instead of having their own servers,

0:41:22.640 --> 0:41:27.919
<v Speaker 2>they are runting space on an Amazon server and apparently supposedly,

0:41:28.280 --> 0:41:30.799
<v Speaker 2>you know air quotes, there was a glitch with that.

0:41:31.400 --> 0:41:34.520
<v Speaker 2>Some people claim that it possibly was hacked. But something

0:41:34.680 --> 0:41:39.800
<v Speaker 2>like between thirty three percent and fifty percent of communications

0:41:39.840 --> 0:41:43.760
<v Speaker 2>back and forth dropped off. People couldn't make transfers, couldn't

0:41:43.800 --> 0:41:48.240
<v Speaker 2>make money transfers. People that people who haven't actually rely

0:41:48.440 --> 0:41:51.920
<v Speaker 2>on the software to control the temperature of their beds.

0:41:52.440 --> 0:41:55.560
<v Speaker 2>The beds actually got up to one hundred and ten

0:41:55.640 --> 0:41:59.000
<v Speaker 2>degrees and they couldn't get into their phone and they

0:41:59.000 --> 0:42:04.560
<v Speaker 2>couldn't you adjust it they couldn't change it. I guess

0:42:04.600 --> 0:42:06.680
<v Speaker 2>they would have had to have unplugged it at some

0:42:06.719 --> 0:42:09.480
<v Speaker 2>point in time to be able to sleep. But this

0:42:09.680 --> 0:42:13.600
<v Speaker 2>reliance on technology, and I believe it was last week

0:42:13.640 --> 0:42:16.200
<v Speaker 2>when we were talking to Louis Pugh about some of

0:42:16.239 --> 0:42:19.480
<v Speaker 2>the technology and how some of this stuff is supposed

0:42:19.520 --> 0:42:23.040
<v Speaker 2>to work but doesn't. He goes and they think you're

0:42:23.040 --> 0:42:27.480
<v Speaker 2>going to have a driverless vehicle, a driverless truck in

0:42:27.520 --> 0:42:31.520
<v Speaker 2>the next two to five years, are you insane? And me,

0:42:31.760 --> 0:42:37.600
<v Speaker 2>I cannot imagine ever getting in a car that does

0:42:37.680 --> 0:42:41.760
<v Speaker 2>not have a driver. I'm sorry that I don't believe

0:42:41.800 --> 0:42:45.040
<v Speaker 2>in machinery that much. So anyway they're talking about here,

0:42:45.239 --> 0:42:48.600
<v Speaker 2>so some of these companies are relying on artificial intelligence,

0:42:48.680 --> 0:42:51.279
<v Speaker 2>and so they'd be thinking in terms of laying their

0:42:51.320 --> 0:42:54.160
<v Speaker 2>employees off or laying people off. I'm telling you what,

0:42:54.760 --> 0:42:56.880
<v Speaker 2>I think this is going to be a if people

0:42:56.880 --> 0:42:59.160
<v Speaker 2>are If companies are jumping onto this to save a

0:42:59.200 --> 0:43:04.280
<v Speaker 2>few bucks, they are making a big, big mistake because

0:43:04.920 --> 0:43:11.399
<v Speaker 2>the human element, the intelligence of human beings is far

0:43:11.520 --> 0:43:16.680
<v Speaker 2>superior to some nameless, faceless program computer that is going

0:43:16.719 --> 0:43:21.160
<v Speaker 2>to be dictating. They're seeing Amazon laid off talking about

0:43:21.280 --> 0:43:25.400
<v Speaker 2>cutting up to fourteen thousand jobs rooms global corporate workforce.

0:43:25.760 --> 0:43:29.360
<v Speaker 2>Laughs are also happening automobile sector. American companies have announced

0:43:29.520 --> 0:43:33.240
<v Speaker 2>more than twenty five thousand job cuts this month. According

0:43:33.239 --> 0:43:37.319
<v Speaker 2>to Michael Hanson economists at JP Morgan, labor market will

0:43:37.360 --> 0:43:41.359
<v Speaker 2>appear far away from the material still appears to be

0:43:41.360 --> 0:43:44.840
<v Speaker 2>far away from material shift towards a contraction and employment

0:43:45.200 --> 0:43:49.920
<v Speaker 2>that might signal an imminent recession, despite some recent headlines.

0:43:49.960 --> 0:43:52.640
<v Speaker 2>So we're far away from any kind of a recession,

0:43:53.000 --> 0:43:55.560
<v Speaker 2>but they still want to throw that out there.

0:43:55.880 --> 0:43:58.120
<v Speaker 3>Let's see, Well, regular.

0:43:57.760 --> 0:44:00.600
<v Speaker 2>Claims remain likely estimate the more more than one hundred

0:44:00.600 --> 0:44:03.200
<v Speaker 2>and fifty thousand workers as far as now get this,

0:44:03.320 --> 0:44:06.200
<v Speaker 2>as far as the federal workers are concerned, they estimate

0:44:06.239 --> 0:44:09.000
<v Speaker 2>that over one hundred and fifty thousand dropped off the payrolls.

0:44:09.160 --> 0:44:12.480
<v Speaker 2>But according to the numbers the analysis, because they're in

0:44:12.520 --> 0:44:16.000
<v Speaker 2>a separate group and that's reported separately rather than the

0:44:16.080 --> 0:44:21.440
<v Speaker 2>normal jobless claims. But that number that reports the federal

0:44:21.520 --> 0:44:25.319
<v Speaker 2>job jobless claims, initial job as claims only went up

0:44:25.360 --> 0:44:29.200
<v Speaker 2>ten thousand last month. So where's this one hundred and fifty.

0:44:28.960 --> 0:44:30.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. So they're going to have to dig

0:44:30.640 --> 0:44:32.480
<v Speaker 3>it a little bit more into that. By the way.

0:44:33.920 --> 0:44:36.560
<v Speaker 2>Also, I want to mention also before we get out

0:44:36.560 --> 0:44:39.279
<v Speaker 2>of here, America's truck a Network supports a mission or

0:44:39.320 --> 0:44:42.120
<v Speaker 2>res across America. You can hear us every truck and

0:44:42.160 --> 0:44:45.640
<v Speaker 2>Tuesday at five am and ten am Eastern on REES

0:44:45.719 --> 0:44:49.799
<v Speaker 2>across America Radio, available on the iHeartRadio app. Search the

0:44:49.840 --> 0:44:53.359
<v Speaker 2>word rese for Rees across America Radio. And thank you

0:44:53.400 --> 0:44:56.680
<v Speaker 2>to all our truckers who support the mission of Reese

0:44:56.719 --> 0:45:00.480
<v Speaker 2>across America. So again, folks, we're up against clock here,

0:45:00.520 --> 0:45:02.720
