Hello, everyone, and welcome to another episode of Getting Hammered. I'm your host, Mary

Catherine Ham. I am here with my co-host, Vic Madness, of the Washington Free Beacon. We are your

morning show for any hour, and you, maybe you can hear it a little bit. I'm in denial my co-host, Fick Madness, the Washington Free Beacon. We are your morning show for any hour in you.

Maybe you can hear it a little bit.

I'm in denial about the fact that I'm catching the cold that my husband and my children have.

How is Christmas going to come if mom has a cold?

So we're just going to, it's not happening.

I'm fine.

I made it back from Thanksgiving. I'm good. We're going to talk about a lot of news. We've got foreign policy news in Syria, in South Korea, in Lebanon, in Israel. We'll try to get to all of that. We've got Trump cabinet picks. We've got Trump talking junk about foreign policy on truth social, which has been quite enjoyable. Justin Trudeau down at Marilago for a photo

shoot, which is also fun. And of course, the Hunter Biden pardon. But before we get to all that,

what kinds of fun did you have over Thanksgiving? Vic? Hello, Mary Catherine. Happy post- Thanksgiving.

But a wonderful Thanksgiving locally in town Kate's cousin lives just down the

street. That's the first thing. The second thing, I didn't even have to drive. So we took two cars.

We took two cars two miles away. But we had a lot of things that we brought over, right? For food and

drink, I made my giant pitcher of Manhattan's. That is 40 ounces of

makers and 20 ounces of sweet for moose. That's 60 ounces. And if you want to know the secret

ingredient was the choice of bidders. And I asked Kate, which she would like. And we used

Aztec chocolate bitters from Fee Brothers.

Ooh.

Not that we get any sponsorship from them, but always happy to take them.

And that was a big hit, and I had a jar of Egbert's cherry.

So real cherries, not the fake cherries.
