1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:04,400
Speaker 1: When your spouse says they refuse to come with you

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,800
Speaker 1: to your family Thanksgiving for the first time in five years,

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:10,880
Speaker 1: you know something is up.

4
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 2: That that that was the first hit.

5
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:17,760
Speaker 1: Or maybe upside down. You know you're about to hear

6
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:20,960
Speaker 1: some drama that's been going down between a brother and

7
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:25,639
Speaker 1: a sister that's turning their Turkey Day into Berserki Day?

8
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 2: And are you trying? Are you trying to coin that term?

9
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 1: It is and the only possible way for them to

10
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,520
Speaker 1: fix it is by us doing a special awkward Thursday

11
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 1: phone call.

12
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:38,600
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna skip over that Berserki line.

13
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,199
Speaker 1: Okay, Brook, you come up with the joke. I don't know,

14
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:43,239
Speaker 1: we'll do it.

15
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 3: Coming drama will be juicy, just like the Thanksgiving bird boom.

16
00:00:48,280 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: It's coming up next. It's Awkward Thursday's Thursday. Yeah, our

17
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: listeners lovely, that's right back by popular demand. It's the

18
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: awkward Thursday phone call.

19
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 2: That I love our high end imaging that we have

20
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 2: on this.

21
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: I don't sense any sarcasm. Since Thanksgiving always lands on Thursdays,

22
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: this is perfect because today's awkward call is about Turkey

23
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: Day's strange. It's usually such a peaceful, non confrontational holiday.

24
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 1: Just heard and football and constant hugs.

25
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,559
Speaker 2: I don't know any drama coming out of that day.

26
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: No, but apparently one of our listeners, Patrick is dealing

27
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: with some family drama, so he's requested our help. Patrick,

28
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: how does it feel being the only family in America

29
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 1: with an awkward Thanksgiving?

30
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 4: I've fil sposed to like a normal day inding And

31
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 4: why for me?

32
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 3: It's technic all the time, he's being sarcastic. We all

33
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 3: have family drama, so we got your back.

34
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's us and famies that probably don't talk at all,

35
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 5: and that's the drama.

36
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: Yeah.

37
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 6: Oh well, I need your guys as help.

38
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 1: Okay, I can't promise anything, but we'll try. So tell

39
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: us about the situation that's going on with you and

40
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: your Thanksgiving this year.

41
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 6: All right, So, my sister has been hosting Thanksgiving now

42
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 6: for the past five or six years, and she's got

43
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 6: a really nice house. She's an awesome cook, which honestly

44
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 6: makes sense, right, she's.

45
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 2: A successful one in the family. I hear what you're saying.

46
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: She wants to bragg to all the other family members

47
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: about how how great she is.

48
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 5: Guys, I think logistically it normally is that a person

49
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 5: the bigger house.

50
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 3: That's like, we actually have guest room that's empty even

51
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 3: though everyone's here.

52
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 4: Well we'll just call her the Golden Goose.

53
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: Okay, okay.

54
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 4: She apparently read some.

55
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,359
Speaker 6: Kind of news story in England about a woman who

56
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,839
Speaker 6: was hosting a family dinner and she was charging per

57
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:03,399
Speaker 6: person to attend. Oh right, I guess my sister said,

58
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,239
Speaker 6: well I should do that for Thanksgiving.

59
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 1: Oh no, we have heard other people before say that

60
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: they are charging their families on Thanksgiving because of the

61
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: extra costs that they have to do hosting and all

62
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 1: that stuff, So it's not totally unheard of.

63
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 2: I mean, it's basically asking them to chip in.

64
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: So how did your sister lay this out?

65
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 6: Well, she didn't tell me directly. She sent me and

66
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 6: my wife Evite with.

67
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,239
Speaker 4: An RSVP option and there.

68
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 6: Was a note that said our family of four would

69
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 6: cost one hundred dollars.

70
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 2: Wow.

71
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 6: My wife thinks it's a joke. So she got on

72
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 6: the phone with my sister and she found out she

73
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 6: was actually serious, and they got into it. So now

74
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 6: my wife's feelings are hurt and she doesn't want to go,

75
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 6: and she's already on the plane ticket to go visit

76
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 6: her family in another city.

77
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 1: How much money is her family charging?

78
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 3: Wait, are you saying that you and your wife are

79
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 3: right now splitting up for Thanksgiving?

80
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 2: You would go with your family and she would go

81
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 2: with hers.

82
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh that is a dream for you, right, Brooke.

83
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 2: Oh, I actually like being with my in laws. I

84
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 2: mean i'd make fun of him a lot.

85
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: No, I was talking about the family.

86
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 3: But where's your problem, because I feel like you have

87
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,239
Speaker 3: a problem now with your wife and adultso with your sister.

88
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: Yeah.

89
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 6: Well I went and I told my sister about the

90
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 6: situation and tried to make her feel guilty.

91
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 2: Oh okay.

92
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 4: Her response was good.

93
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 6: We don't need her and it's still be one hundred bucks.

94
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 3: Oh oh wait, shouldn't it only be seventy five if

95
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:48,919
Speaker 3: you're bringing you in the two cameras?

96
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 6: That's that's what I asked her. I told her, but

97
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 6: it's only three of us now, it should be twenty

98
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 6: five dollars per person. And my sister just says, no,

99
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,159
Speaker 6: it's one hundred dollars her family.

100
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: Oh, she's charging family, not her plate. Okay.

101
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 6: Well, even to the woman that she read about in

102
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 6: England that was.

103
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 4: Just for a dinner party. You know it wasn't.

104
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,599
Speaker 6: A family gathering where everyone's supposed to be together for

105
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 6: a happy, joyous Thanksgiving. So obviously my sister is a

106
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 6: little she's a little out of control, and now I

107
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 6: need help talking some sense into her.

108
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 4: And I just could use some advice. Guys.

109
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 2: Okay, so you want to call your sister?

110
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 6: Yes, because my wife says she's already done with this

111
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 6: situation and the whole Thanksgiving thing, and I'm just wanting

112
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 6: to kind of mend defenses here and just try to

113
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 6: save Thanksgiving essentially.

114
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 2: Can I ask what it would take for your wife

115
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 2: to that I was going to say and to come back?

116
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, how much money do we have to pay your wife?

117
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 1: Book out?

118
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,040
Speaker 3: Well, I'm curious, like, are we wanting your sister? Are

119
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 3: you asking her to apologize? Or are you asking her

120
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 3: to drop the fee?

121
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 4: Like?

122
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,279
Speaker 2: What what would it take to keep things peaceful?

123
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 6: Basically, just look at the situation and say, this is

124
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 6: a family gathering. We need to be together as a family.

125
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 6: This isn't a paid per plate kind of deal.

126
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 7: Has anybody else in your family complained about it?

127
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 4: Several people have talked about it.

128
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 2: Yes, have they already paid her?

129
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 6: Uh?

130
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 4: Yes?

131
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,159
Speaker 6: Some of them have had actually paid for this? Oh

132
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 6: wow what Hey? I told them don't do it because

133
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 6: I had friends in radio.

134
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 4: Who are the experts?

135
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,719
Speaker 1: Who are they?

136
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 6: Yeah?

137
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 2: Oh you dad the wrong number?

138
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: Oh oh you're talking about us? Oh god, yes, yes, Patrick? Okay,

139
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 1: hey we.

140
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 7: Can you know?

141
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 3: Thanksgiving and there's nothing more that Alexis likes in asking

142
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 3: people for money.

143
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe just have thee hundred bucks ready in case.

144
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, but we need to try to think of some

145
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,600
Speaker 1: advice to give to Patrick before he calls his sister

146
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: and asks her to see reason before Thanksgiving.

147
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,159
Speaker 2: Here, h drop the charges sis?

148
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: Yeah? Patrick, are you cool with cursing? Because that may

149
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 1: affect Brooks advice.

150
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 4: If she has the ears. I got the tone.

151
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 2: I've never heard that saying before, heard that, not even

152
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 2: sure what it means.

153
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 1: I'm kind of into it. But we'll come back with

154
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 1: your advice to let you make your awkward Thursday phone call.

155
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving edition coming up right after this.

156
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 2: Get the dumb button ready.

157
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: To it's awkward. It's Thursday. It's awkward Thursday. Nothing says

158
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving like charging your family money to be in your presence.

159
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 6: That's right.

160
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: When you say it like that, it's not good it's sweet.

161
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: It's not totally unheard of because it is a pretty

162
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: expensive meal. But our listener, Patrick is in a unique

163
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: situation where his sister is charging one hundred dollars per family.

164
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: Even though Patrick's wife is already backed out of the

165
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: event and frustration, his sister's still hitting him with the

166
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 1: full hundred dollars fee for him and his two children

167
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: to attend.

168
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 3: And mind you, how she sent the news be a

169
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 3: an evite, Yeah, it wasn't like a text threat.

170
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: Even I'm impressed by it too, don't get me wrong. Aggressive, yes,

171
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 1: but clearly it is disturbing the entire family vibe. So

172
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: Patrick is desperate for some advice on how to get

173
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: his sister to see reason. Maybe lower the fees, just

174
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: do something to get this holiday back on track. So

175
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 1: it's more about giving again. So Broke, what's your advice

176
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 1: for Patrick?

177
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,440
Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, Patrick, she's your sister.

178
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 3: You need to explain to her this is dividing the family.

179
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 3: Is that what she really wants? Make her see that

180
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 3: and listen. If that doesn't work, to reason, you just

181
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 3: let her know that you may or may not be

182
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,319
Speaker 3: sharing a very embarrassing story from childhood.

183
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:59,679
Speaker 2: At the thing. That's only if she doesn't listen to reason.

184
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm going to beat you up like old time.

185
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, a little blackmail in a sibling relationship is healthy.

186
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 1: It's healthy, Patrick, I'm not hearing from me. You are

187
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,199
Speaker 1: you down for a little family extortion to save Thanksgiving?

188
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 2: Can you take a good story.

189
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 6: If it saves Thanksgiving?

190
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 4: Absolutely?

191
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 1: Okay, let's remember that one. And Jose, what's your advice?

192
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:20,959
Speaker 5: Well, you're not going to get very far in the

193
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 5: discussion if she's already like gotten into it with your wife, right, Yeah,

194
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 5: I know, which adds drama.

195
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: So maybe just to keep the peace, you tell.

196
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 5: Her I'll slide you one hundred bucks, but just tell

197
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 5: my wife it was free.

198
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: Just say hey, I took.

199
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 4: The fee off. I'll use that if it's a last resort.

200
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, alright, what's your sister's name?

201
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 4: Patrick? Oh yeah, Angela.

202
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 1: Hopefully we're going to melt Angela's cold, cold heart.

203
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 2: He sounds like a very lovely he's definitely the oldest sibling. Yeah, yeah,

204
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 2: no question. Yeah, it's a.

205
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 1: Little hot in there, though, so maybe a little melting

206
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,679
Speaker 1: action could be in this store. Here we go, I'm

207
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,079
Speaker 1: just going down the number. Patrick, you've got this man?

208
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 6: Hello, Hey Angie, it's Patrick.

209
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 7: Wait, sorry, do you change your number? This was like

210
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 7: some random.

211
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, I know, I kind of dropped the old phone

212
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 6: and the toilet and I just had I just had

213
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 6: to get a new phone.

214
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 7: So yeah, no, I thought it was one of those

215
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 7: stam calls ever getting so many completely, it's ridiculous.

216
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:41,199
Speaker 6: Well, trying to extend your car limited warranty, Yeah.

217
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 7: Something like that.

218
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've been getting those two.

219
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 6: I gotta talk to you about something. Okay, it's about

220
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 6: this whole Thanksgiving fee.

221
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 5: Yeah.

222
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 7: I think it's gonna be one of the best Thanksgivings

223
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 7: we've had.

224
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 4: Okay, how do you figure that?

225
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 6: Like you're well charging your own family to spend time

226
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 6: at your house.

227
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 7: Well, sure, I mean, what with the stress of money

228
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 7: and the grocery bills and the cleaning bills afterward. I mean,

229
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 7: this year, it looks like I'm actually going to have

230
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 7: a bit of a surplus here.

231
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,320
Speaker 6: What huh, you're making money off of this?

232
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 7: I mean at first they thought, you know, I was

233
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 7: just barely going to break even, But then it came

234
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 7: to me, what did well, Bubba and Papa, what are

235
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 7: you talking about Well, okay, they're old. You know they're

236
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 7: going to need priority parking, So the driveway is just

237
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 7: going to be roped off just for them so they

238
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 7: can get in and out easily. And it's just going

239
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 7: to be like fifty dollars a pop.

240
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 4: What are you talking about? You're charging our grandparents.

241
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 7: For an important service. I think it's gonna be my

242
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 7: most successful thanksgivings. And if you don't come, you're gonna

243
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 7: you're gonna miss out. I mean the food's gonna be

244
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 7: next level.

245
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 6: I mean it's always like really good, but.

246
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, well this year it's gonna be even better. I

247
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 7: mean I've had like three people, I think, pay for

248
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 7: upgrades for the pies this year. What is that?

249
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 1: What is that?

250
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 4: No?

251
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,839
Speaker 7: Okay, it was on the evite if you would care

252
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 7: to read it, you you get a bigger slice with

253
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 7: more witch cream for seven dollars.

254
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 6: Whoa what are you going to do next? Pay to

255
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:36,439
Speaker 6: use the restroom?

256
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 7: Look, don't be ridiculous, I mean I'm being practical. The

257
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 7: whole reason that I'm doing this in the first place

258
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 7: is to help pay for a new garage door. Okay, wait, what.

259
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:50,319
Speaker 6: A garage door? Angie? Listen to yourself.

260
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 7: I accidentally hit it last week when I was watching

261
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 7: a TikTok while I was driving.

262
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 1: This is why Rector Costor.

263
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 7: Who are all the people?

264
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:07,559
Speaker 2: Family?

265
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: Yeah? I can't afford to be in this family. We're

266
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 1: a family radio show, Angela. We're a morning show called

267
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 1: Brook and Jeffrey Patrick.

268
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 7: What is this?

269
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 4: You're on a radio show.

270
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 6: I wanted to get the whole premise of why you think.

271
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 4: This is a good idea?

272
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I mean he needed a little help obviously.

273
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, so and Angela. This is called an Awkward Thursday

274
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 1: phone call, extremely popular segment nationwide. You should listen. But basically,

275
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: your brother is a little bit frustrated with how this

276
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 1: whole Thanksgiving fee is going over.

277
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 3: Okay, And he's not the only one, like you're dividing

278
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 3: the family.

279
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 2: His wife is refusing to come. You got in a

280
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 2: fight with her. Other family members are upset.

281
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 7: No one else has talked to me about this. It

282
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 7: seems like it's just his wife.

283
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 3: Oh okay, you don't think that your family's talking behind

284
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 3: your back right now, Angie.

285
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 2: Grandma and Grandpa for sure.

286
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, charging they're just definitely a thread that you're not.

287
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 1: On just because they're not saying something directly to you,

288
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 1: doesn't mean they're not a little bit uncomfortable with the

289
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 1: situation unfolding.

290
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 7: I think it's entrepreneurial, Okay, Okay, it's.

291
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 5: A little business savvy, but it's against you.

292
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: Nobody's here saying we're not going to steal that idea

293
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 1: for ourselves and do it at our own thanksgivings. We're

294
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 1: not saying that, but we are saying that. Clearly, your

295
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 1: brother is struggling with the whole concept, and.

296
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 2: He's not very good at talking for himself clearly.

297
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 1: I mean, Patrick, you should jump in and talk to

298
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 1: your sister about this. This is between you and your family.

299
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 6: I'm just trying to figure out what the hell is

300
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 6: going on with this whole situation.

301
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 4: Angie. You know, you don't need to rope anything off.

302
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 6: You don't even need to charge absolute.

303
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 1: Oh that's not what Patrick's saying.

304
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 2: Angie. You don't want your brother and his family to

305
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 2: miss dinner, do you?

306
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 7: So he should pay the hundred and.

307
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: Be there, Okay, Patrick, I mean, look, it sounds like

308
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: not a lot is working here, so maybe it's a

309
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 1: good time to go with Jose's advice.

310
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 6: All right, Angie, I'll slip you the one hundred dollars.

311
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 4: Just just don't tell Amanda. Okay, Oh, you're right, I'll

312
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 4: just tell her it's free.

313
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 7: You know what, make it one fifty?

314
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 2: Have a deal? Is there a fifty dollars line, Surcharge?

315
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 2: Is that what you're doing?

316
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 7: Fifty dollars? Put me on the radio Searcharge?

317
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 4: Now, Angie, that's just exploitatious.

318
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 2: It was Patrick.

319
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 1: It was exploitatious to put her on the radio. Patrick,

320
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: it's big if you admit.

321
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 4: The radio feeds.

322
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 3: I don't think they think Angie's really in the boss

323
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 3: in this situation.

324
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 2: I think you should take the deal before it goes

325
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 2: up too and get your wife the pie upgrade.

326
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: On a good husband there.

327
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 6: All right, all right, I'll pay the one hundred and

328
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 6: fifty dollars and throw in a pie upgrade for my wife.

329
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 7: Wow, good doing business with you, brother.

330
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 1: Oh it's a happy Thanksgiving.

331
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 2: After all, he failed him so hard.

332
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 4: I regret calling.

333
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: In the experts, rooking Jeffrey in the morning. So what

334
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: did we learn from all that? Other than don't call

335
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 1: us with your family problems because we'll probably make them worse.

336
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 3: We learned that the older sister in that family has

337
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 3: like quite the business line.

338
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 2: She's a boss.

339
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: I mean, we definitely learned people who are greedy trying

340
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: to profit off of family during the holidays. Those people

341
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 1: seem to come out on top. Yes, it's probably worth

342
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: trying it.

343
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 3: You know, I will say, though, even if she profits

344
00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 3: a little, if she's hosted all of this and done

345
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 3: all the food for the last five years, I mean,

346
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 3: she's still kind of losing money.

347
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 7: Yeah.

348
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,320
