  We got a question for our American mama's. Dear mama's do you all mix
• 0:03
  politics with Thanksgiving dinner? Well, let's ask our American mama's Alma mama and
• 0:19
  joining is now our American mama is Terry Netville and Kimberly Burlison. Got Thanksgiving
• 0:24
  coming up? Oh, you got the chicken, You got the not the
• 0:27
  chicken, got the turkey. You can have chicken roasted turkey. You got
• 0:32
  the stuffing. Although I was chewed out because I was told that I was
• 0:37
  a Northerner for calling it stuffing. That is, that's apparently dressing. But
• 0:41
  when he actually stuffs it into the turkey, so for us, ye,
• 0:46
  anyway, you got all the best, right then, she had the best
• 0:49
  every Thanksgiving. I'm like very red stuffing, my favorite. It is,
• 0:55
  Oh my gosh. Yeah, it is so good. And she doesn't give
• 0:58
  the reci it's his family secret. It's a I'm all about people keeping their
• 1:00
  own recipe and just making it. Yeah, so I don't have to make
• 1:03
  it. That's so good. So in our family, in our family,
• 1:11
  when we have Thanksgiving lunch, we absolutely talk all kinds of things. We
• 1:17
  talk politics, religion, whatever. In oom it's mom that really doesn't like
• 1:22
  it. Yeah, and our kids, well, our kids are more bored
• 1:26
  with it, whereas our mom can feel us we start rising, it starts
• 1:29
  getting a little bit louder as we're talking and we're in passion, and she's
• 1:32
  like, stop it, stop it. Can we just enjoy this? I
• 1:36
  know? Can you imagine that? I mean, we're all kind of like
• 1:38
  minded, so, you know, and she also and we kind of get
• 1:41
  to this where everybody is at this point where we're all like, it just
• 1:46
  feels so doomsdayish. It's like everything just feels like this guy is falling.
• 1:49
  And so she's so positive that she's like, all I know is God is
• 1:55
  in ultimate control. Things can turn around tomorrow with a staff of his,
• 2:00
  you know, just trust and believe and have She doesn't want us to wallow
• 2:05
  in the fear, you know what I mean. That's a good policy.
• 2:07
  It's an easy place to be is to wallow in the fear. Because when
• 2:12
  we start talking, it's so funny because my kids they're like, oh,
• 2:15
  my God Maker, stop maker, stop, Like have y'all seen this?
• 2:20
  Have y'all heard this? No, Mom, we haven't. That's not what
• 2:22
  we focus on, because that's what I listen to. I just want to
• 2:24
  keep up with everything. What about y'all? We don't really talk about politics
• 2:30
  at dinner. We don't really talk politics much at home. If anybody's going
• 2:35
  to talk politics is more likely to be my daughter and I, uh,
• 2:38
  well, we'll talk politics and she will have seen something online. I'll be
• 2:40
  like, well, I mean kind of but not all right, so let
• 2:45
  me give you some context and then lets you see. So we'll talk about
• 2:49
  it that way, but not really At Thanksgiving dinner and Thanksgiving I focus on
• 2:53
  family being thankful and focus on being thankful. Yeah we do too, We
• 2:59
  definitely do. But how interesting the conversation shifts though whenever Like our other sister,
• 3:05
  Lindsey. Yeah, I wasn't going to say our sister. I was
• 3:07
  going to say, are really close friends. So our sister's in laws are
• 3:09
  liberal and so we we're just we don't talk politics when they're around, because
• 3:15
  you know, and I think a lot of people do that. It's not
• 3:16
  a shameful thing. You just kind of respect them and you don't want to
• 3:20
  get into it. So we don't really talk about politics in front of them,
• 3:23
  and they don't with us, and you know, that way is like
• 3:28
  you keep the peace, and you do keep it on the other subjects.
• 3:30
  You know. One of my philosophies on this is that, for the most
• 3:34
  part, if people want to know what I really think about politics, they
• 3:38
  can listen to my nationally syndicated radio. So we're in forty five markets across
• 3:40
  the country. We've got a podcast. You ever want to know what I
• 3:44
  think about politics, You're welcome to ask. But I don't feel like I
• 3:46
  need to force it on anybody else because I'm talking. I talk politics all
• 3:51
  the time. You ever really want to know what I think about it,
• 3:53
  I've got shows you can there's the library you can go through. Well,
• 3:55
  let's think about this too. There was a time when none of us knew
• 4:00
  what anybody was. We didn't know what side of the political isle anybody landed
• 4:04
  on, because we didn't care. We all were united in our patriotism and
• 4:10
  our love for God, I thought, and all of that. So it's
• 4:13
  only been in recent years since Trump went down the escalator that things escalated.
• 4:17
  You know what got bad? You know what Lindsay told me. So Lindsay
• 4:20
  she substitute taught for a class Friday last Friday in a school a very minority
• 4:26
  driven school. And she said that all the eighth graders in her class asked
• 4:30
  her every period eight periods they asked her, was she racist? Who did
• 4:33
  she vote for? What did she think about gay people? Eighth graders?
• 4:39
  And when I said, well, what did you say? And she said,
• 4:42
  well, when they asked me who I voted for, I said,
• 4:45
  I'm not going down that road. She said, But I am also shocked
• 4:47
  that you guys even know who is what politicians are running. She said.
• 4:53
  When I was your age, I didn't even know that presidents served four years.
• 4:56
  That's how you know that this indoctrination train is in full force, because
• 5:00
  that's what's being shoved down their faces on every show, every video, every
• 5:05
  movie. It's so like on social media, that's all that they see,
• 5:10
  so that's what they talk about. We did in eighth grade. I didn't
• 5:12
  know what mom and dad were. Oh my gosh, do you remember our
• 5:15
  neighbors used to ask us to sing that song that we learned in school though,
• 5:17
  the Jimmy Carter song My Bologney has a person, And why I forgot
• 5:24
  about that? The second name forgot about that. We used to do this
• 5:30
  kid, So in my house, I I got a new song. My
• 5:36
  blooney has a first name is j O. E has to say the I
• 5:44
  D E end, doesn't it doesn't quite have I find a different I like
• 5:48
  it. Maybe for Thanksgiving. Now you see why don't talk about this with
• 5:51
