Hello and welcome to the Total Soccer Show.

My name is Daryl Grove and I'm joined by a man who'll be hosting Thanksgiving this year.

His name is Taylor Rockwell.

Hello.

Hello.

I got excited because I thought you were talking about the purpose of today's show and then then I realized, no, I'm actually hosting Thanksgiving, and I got a little nervous, and I started the sweat. You got things to do. You got things to do. So many things. So many things. I'm actually going home to England, where Thanksgiving will just be Thursday. Yes. I'm familiar with that from living in Turkey when Christmas was a Tuesday. Ironically, right? Yes. I mean, that was just it. That was it. Yeah. Because of Turkey.

Uh-huh. Is what I'm saying? I see what you're getting at here. I see what you're getting at. You think they'd like it more, right? Yeah, exactly. I forget. Yeah. No, we can move on from that way. All right.

That was a no-but.

Yeah, no-but.

So this is the first of a two-part Thanksgiving total soccer show special.

I hear they're hungry for turkey in Hungary. You're welcome for that. Oh, should we still carry on with the show? No, I don't think so. So this is the first of our two-part Thanksgiving special. Today we're going to be having Thanksgiving dinner. And on tomorrow's show, we're going to be letting people know what we're thankful for. Right. We'll have had the meal, then we're doing the part where we have to go around and say what we're thankful for, because I guess we've run out of conversation, so we've got to find something. So we're all just going to talk about things we like. So today we will be going through who we're inviting to our Thanksgiving dinner.

Then we'll be sitting down to the meal and we'll be sort of making some analogies between Thanksgiving dishes and certain soccer teams and people and personalities.

And finally, we'll be not having, we'll be trying to avoid some Thanksgiving arguments.

Topics to avoid at Thanksgiving dinner.
