The best way to deep fry a turkey is to make sure it is completely frozen

The best way to prepare a turkey, in my opinion, is by deep frying it... If you deep fry it, make sure that it's completely frozen... A lot of people burn their house down every year, so make sure it's totally frozen. And then drop it from a high surface area and make sure it all spills over and do it indoors.

This is dangerously incorrect; putting a frozen turkey in a deep fryer causes a massive fire/explosion due to the water-oil reaction.

No work gets done in corporate America between the day before Thanksgiving and January 3rd

I would go one step further than that and say the year's over. No work gets done in corporate America between the day before Thanksgiving and, you know, after New Year's... and January 3rd. Get those out-of-office replies ready.

This is a subjective observation of corporate culture, though many would agree the 'holiday slide' is real.

I'm still holding onto my take that Aaron Donald is too undersized to be successful

What Aaron Donald is doing as an interior lineman is insane. I still think [Donald] is too undersized to be successful... the people who are yelling that this is not football anymore, I think that's a little bit of an overreaction.

Aaron Donald is one of the greatest defensive players ever, making the 'too small' take hilariously wrong.

I'm taking the Bears -3.5 against the Lions on Thanksgiving

Right now the Bears are favored by 3.5 points. I like the Bears. The defense looks legit... I would take them by 10.

The Bears beat the Lions 23-16 on Thanksgiving 2018, covering the 3.5 point spread.

The Rays are playing an exciting brand of baseball

It's a very, very exciting brand of baseball. And I'm gonna miss it when it's over. So I did not wanna sweep, so thank you.

This is a subjective assessment of style and cannot be definitively judged.

The Cowboys are a bad football team

The Cowboys are a bad football team. And I can't wait for people to start to say like, this is when, look at the schedule. Dallas is gonna put some wins together.

The quality of a team is partly evaluative, though the season's playoff result could test the narrower claim that Dallas is not a serious championship threat.

Performance-enhancing drug shortages may explain dominant teams falling off

There started to be severe, severe supply chain issues when it came to performance enhancing drugs and peptide shipments coming to the United States. I just think it's interesting.

This speculative causal theory is not established by the transcript or otherwise verifiable from the available context.
