• 2:46
  Speaker 1: shareable sections.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't share it though.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: I eat the whole pie. I've never heard of that. Anyway.

• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Okay, you got that guys? Pork carnitas. Quick break for traffic.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Come back with some music. Today's fascinating facts. It is
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: National Chucky Day. By the way, I looked it up.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: We're both right. The first three were Child's Play. And
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: then the last three had Chucky in the title. So
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: facts about Chucky coming up. In honor of National Chucky Day,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: as in the murderous doll. Fascinating facts about Chucky. I
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: didn't remember that he had a human name. But it
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: was Charles Lee Ray that was based on the combined
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: names of Charles Manson, Lee Harvey Oswald, and James Earl Ray.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: All three.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: Did not know.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: Not good dudes. The original script was called Batteries Not Included.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: They didn't like that, so they went with Bloody Buddy
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: as a dark satire of the My Buddy doll. And
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: then they switched to Child's Play.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: Oh, wait.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: So the My Buddy doll came before Chucky?
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Yes. Whoa. He was the inspiration. But they said, oh,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: that might hurt sales. And even though they dropped the
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: My Buddy title, Bloody Buddy, after the movie came out,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: sales dropped 85%. And they discontinued the whole line a
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: year later.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: See, I had no idea. I thought My Buddy came
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: out after the movie.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Oh, they wanted to call it Bloody Buddy.
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Wow.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: My buddy.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: I had to look him up. And while his head
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: does not look like Chucky, the outfit. Oh, yeah. So anyway.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: So there you go. Some fascinating facts about Chucky, the
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: murderous doll. And up next, it is time for the scoop.
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: Well, the Red Kettle campaign celebrates 30 years with a
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: kickoff party that always starts during the Dallas Cowboys game
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: on Thanksgiving.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: Who's going to be performing this year?
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Oh, I know this one. And she will share it

• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Monaco Ford.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Well, every Turkey Day, the Dallas Cowboys play.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: And at halftime, they have a country singer kick off
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: the Red Kettle campaign for the Salvation Army with a

  Speaker 3: little halftime show. This year, the 30th year they're doing this,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: performing will be Miranda Lambert.

• 5:27
  Speaker 3: is now his 24th No.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: 1 on country radio, Bend By Now.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Wow!
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: What he said this song is about.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: I think it's just a song where you're looking at
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: your partner for a while, and you just don't really
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: see it progressing any further, and you just start noticing things.
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: You know, that.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: That lets you know that. I had to ask her,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: what's for the while?
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: He was just saying for a while.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: For a while. Yeah. For of a while. For of
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: a while. Yeah.
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: I also like to think that the song is a
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: friendly reminder, don't recycle your exes.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Because if it was meant to be, it would have
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: been by now. Oh.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Look what she did there. Wasn't that clever? Yeah. Coming
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: up next, feel good story today. What would you do

  Speaker 1: his name is Kenny Ramirez. He won homecoming queen. He
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: might have. Homecoming king at Mahoney Area High School. And
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: he knew immediately what he wanted to do. Since sixth grade,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: one of his best friends has been Ashton Kula, who
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: has Down syndrome. Kenny knew that Ashton has always dreamed
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: of being homecoming king. So without hesitation, Kenny walks over
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: to Ashton and puts the sash over his shoulder and
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: the crown on his head. He said, this is the
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: real homecoming king. That kid walked across the stage, his
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: arms held up high. The place went nuts. It's a
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: smile that will not soon go away. In fact, his
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: mom said, Her son will be talking about that night forever.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Just thought it was really nice. The video's cool, too.

  Speaker 3: the spooktacular at the Meadows. Hit up the Maple Tree Cafe,
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: made some new friends at the bar. Shout out to

  Speaker 1: The supposedly haunted.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I've heard that one is supposedly haunted.

  Speaker 3: I did try to ask the bartenders the first time
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: I went there about.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Anything going on? And they didn't really say too much.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: The haunting continued for you.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: Yes. And then we took a walking downtown tour of
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: Legends of New England. So the Bell and Raven in
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: Simsbury put it on and we walked around in the
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: dark with lights. and she told ghost stories, which was
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: pretty cool. And then my friends and I, it's not
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: really breaking in. They have that whole downtown historical area
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: in Simsbury with like the old house.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: Oh, the wigwam? Yeah.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: It's not technically called a wigwam. I forget what it was.

  Speaker 1: It's a meeting house, I believe.
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: Well, we wanted to go in it.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: So when the tour wrapped, we went back and I mean,

  Speaker 3: it had little twinkle lights on the inside. Yeah.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: And then I put my friend in the stocks. It

• 10:41
  Speaker 1: we start out in the morning at the Harvest Fest
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: in the Farmer's Cow in Berlin. It was honestly, it
• 10:45

• 10:48
  Speaker 1: car show, which it was. Food was absolutely fantastic, and
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: both the kids went. Normally, Tucker only goes with me,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: so Tessa went, and we just had a grand time,

  Speaker 1: which continued at Rosedale Farms in Simsbury. We did the
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: corn maze. Did you find your way out? Yeah. Challenging,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: and I got to admit, my daughter is, she's like
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: a guide dog. No offense to the doggy thing part,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: but she got us in and out super good.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: I had to- break through the side of the maze
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: when I went there.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: I saw an exit in the side of it. Yeah.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: And we purchased the wine that you recommended on Friday. Yes,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: the cherry. Yeah. It hasn't been tried yet, so we'll
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: have to get back to you with a review. And
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: then yesterday I was so buoyed by the fact that
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: the kids were getting along, we went fishing. Oh. I
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: caught a bunch of fish, and Tess always gets a turtle,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: which she named Gus, and we all released them at
