Hi, I'm Erin.

And I'm Katie.

And you're listening to Rope Drop and Parkoff.

We are batch recording, which I think we've mentioned in every episode.

And I don't even know, this is our third.

Yes.

And I think we're a little slap happy.

And our voices are tired. And maybe we should have taken a big drink in between. But here we go. And gotten to the bathroom and gotten our ducks in a row because we don't know what we're doing. But we do know that this is our Thanksgiving week episode. Yes. So happy Thanksgiving to those of you who celebrate. Yes. And thanks for being here with us. Yes. And this is going to be a pretty short episode.

This month, which again mentioned it on every episode, we've been busy. I've been traveling.

Katie's been traveling and now we have Thanksgiving week.

Yeah. So we just. And our podcast studio is closed on Thanksgiving Day, which would be our normal recording day.

Yeah. We record on Thursday. So we're just trying to get episodes out. This one's going to be short, but we wanted to celebrate Thanksgiving by sharing a few things that we're thankful for. Yes. And then we'll let you guys go eat turkey and enjoy your families. Yeah. Are you a Black Friday person?

No. I am not. No. No. I do pretty much all of my shopping online in the first place and none of it really on Black Friday. Well, and it turns out that especially the last few years, most of the deals you can get in the stores, you can also get online. True. And so you don't need to go wait. Most of them start the beginning of November.

And you don't have to wait until Black Friday to shop.

So. you can also get online. True. And so you don't need to go wait. Most of them start the beginning of November and you don't have to wait until Black Friday

to shop.

So my in-laws are big Black Friday shoppers and it's like tradition.

And it's fun.

Sure.

It's fun when you have a group of you.

Yeah.

Yeah.
