Hello again, happy listeners! I hope you have a lovely Thanksgiving. I hope you spend it surrounded by friends and family and pets. I hope you eat lots of lovely food, and engage in stimulating and mildly educational conversation at the dinner table. I hope your slightly crazy Republican uncle who nobody really likes but who gets invited every year out of a sense of obligation has really bad laryngitis.
I mean, let’s face it. The guy smells like an ashtray that hasn’t been emptied since 1973, and we get it. You hate Obama. He’s a socialist. And a communist. And a Nazi. And he hates America. And he’s a Muslim. And a terrorist.
But after Obama finishes redistributing your wealth and persecuting middle-class white people and putting them in concentration camps and he changes the name of the country to the United States of Goldman Sachs and every citizen has to pray to Mecca five times a day before we formally surrender to al Qaeda, will you please just shut up so I can finish my yams in peace?
Thanks. Much appreciated.
But if you’d like to talk about something else, how about the fact that you’re almost sixty and still working an entry-level job? No? OK, then just pass the mashed potatoes.

In this week’s podcast, we talk about Thanksgiving and our loving descriptions of the food will no doubt make your mouth water. You can stream the show
here and at
SelfAbsorbed.me, and subscribe in
iTunes.
As always, we kindly ask that you spread the word about the show. We don’t charge any money for listening, but we consider our paycheck to be the joy you get from listening to the fruits of our labor.
And there are only three more shows left until the end of season 01! Then we’re on hiatus until February!
Here’s hoping your uncle crashes his car into a telephone pole on the way to your parents’ house on Thanksgiving. Not that we’re wishing for his death or anything, but maybe the impact will shock him so that he becomes less of a loon. Kind of like what happens to Lukas Haas in that Woody Allen movie.
