Halloween feels like it was yesterday, but Lizz is already decking the halls, Kelly is prepping a 3-foot tree for George and Hattie's room, and Tyler the Grinch is no help. Today, the gals take a moment to get ready for Thanksgiving, though. 
Today's great eight brings you all the Thanksgiving vibes: a cocktail, cheese board, and kitchen gossip; meal prep and the parade; a post-Turkey-Trot donut; pumpkin pie and decaf; Black Friday and Cyber Monday shopping; Friday leftovers, letting your Christmas flag fly guilt-free; and an after-meal nap with football in the background.
Today's millennial word of the day brings you 'rizz' 2.0 from a Gen Z family friend who has Kelly and Lizz's back. Listen in to see if you know someone who has 'w-rizz' or 'l-rizz.' 
Habit stacking your morning and nighttime routine is the star of Kelly's driveway dump. No excuses. Get to it. Kelly shares her thoughts on the TSA sock-check — aka you should always be prepared to take your shoes off — and where she's found her new favorite boot socks. The satisfaction of using up and pulling 'empties' and clearing Christmas clutter round out the segment. 
You don't want to be talking politics with your uncles and aunts this Thanksgiving, so why not talk auto and shake hands after? Today's industry news hits hard, so you can make more than small talk over dinner. 
Today's industry news is sponsored by Edmunds.com. Kelly loves Edmunds for her car consultations because they make everything easy, user-friendly, and digestible. On every used car listing page, Edmunds gives you an idea of how the car is priced, and they have a fantastic trade appraisal tool where you can get a free appraisal for your vehicle in just minutes. Edmunds has over 50 years of car shopping advice and price guidance all right in one place. 
The first female crash dummy has arrived, and Astrid Linder shares all about it in her TED Talk. The 2022 LA Auto show is happening, and the gals agree it's time for the 2023 Toyota Prius to be the moment. Also debuting at the show will be the 2024 Subaru Impreza, 2024 Kia Seltos, Vinfast's new EVs, and the Genesis GV 70 electric. By 2035 electric truck stops will need as much power as a small town, and gas stations will need as much as a professional sports stadium. Can we handle it? 
If you're wondering what you'll do with your Thanksgiving leftovers this year, you won't want to miss today's ditch the drive-through. A listener writes in with their Thanksgiving shepherd's pie, Kelly and Lizz share their favorite sauce for turkey sandwiches, Durkee Famous Sauce, and Kelly shares a generational tradition — turkey tetrazzini.
