Good morning, everyone.

Welcome to Morning, Ron.

It is a special Christmas edition. It is Thursday, December 25th. We woke up a little early while the kids are sleeping. We hope you're having a wonderful Christmas day. I'm Amy Roboc. And I'm T.J. Holmes. I guess we're working on Christmas. This doesn't feel like big lips. We just want to hop on and get people updated about what happened overnight. But yes, a lot of people are waiting for the pitter, patter of little feet.

We don't, well, we got some big feet here in the house, but we got three sets of feet. That's where we

haven't had three kids in the house in this particular one yet. But it's, it's cool. Christmas is

special when you got, when you're waiting on kids to wake yeah families are uh fun and boisterous and especially when you are

pseudo empty nesters like we are to have them all here in one place under one roof feels pretty

awesome we hope you guys uh listening have some of that same joy in your home as well.

But yeah, I just want to get caught up. People are not going to spend too much time on news today.

It's all about family. A couple of things we want to give you a heads up on. Sorry, we do have to mention

Epstein this morning. We do have to mention, we're going to read you President Trump's Christmas

message to the world that he put out on social media last night.

The Pope, actually, I did not know this. He's holding a Christmas, actually, as we are

recording this, he was just, I believe, wrapping up. A Christmas mat. I didn't realize they

haven't done Christmas, a Christmas day mass since Pope John Paul.

Wow. I didn't realize either. It was always midnight mass before? Yeah. He brought it back. That's pretty cool. I think COVID messed up the schedule a little bit as well, but they have not done this since Pope John Paul. Hey, this is American Pope. I love it. I love it, making his own mark. And I think the highlight, certainly, of the day, a lot of people are going to be opening gifts today, I promise you, there is not one better than the gift being opened in Arkansas this one. It does not. You predicted it. I love this. You predicted it yesterday. You said, I believe there will be a Powerball winner. Someone is going to wake up Christmas morning and find that they are now significantly richer and their life is completely

changed. And I love that that ticket was opened or will be opened in your home state of Arkansas.

And isn't it, as we are recording this, there's a good chance. That person has no idea. Right. That's something fun about that. And so, yes, we kind of started rolling our eyes and we're shaking our heads and my God, somebody please win this power ball. And we got to Christmas Eve. And we were. We were like, there's not a more poetic and cooler story than when somebody wakes up today, babe, on Christmas morning with that.

That's unbelievable.

Oh, my gosh.
