stand-up comedian and power recapper, Dave Neal.

Hello, everybody, it's Dave Neil here.

It's Thursday, December 21st, 2023.

That's right, it's Winter Solstice.

What a special day for us.

Winter Solstice, the moment during the year when the path of the sun in the sky is

far this south in the northern hemisphere that's today that's tonight actually I think around 7 p.m doesn't really matter. Okay not to be precise what does that mean it's the day with the least amount of sunlight

Okay, I'm not an expert with the sort of placement of the moon

and the sun and the stars, but I really hope that this can really be a turning

point for us during the Christmas season that all good things are

right around the corner and I got a lot of content for you on this morning rush hour drive lots to get into.

I've got some Christmas music I've got some Christmas music. I've got some celebrity gossip, a touch of

Bachelor Nation mental health, and some Tik Toc to share. Isn't that great? Where do we

begin? I tell you what, I have to be honest with you. I made the

mistake last night of going to a supermarket. I know several days before Christmas, the

supermarket. It was a rainy evening here in Los Angeles, which I guess drives more people to the supermarket.

And that's right, there was a real curfuffle at the self-checkout lane.
