It's almost Thanksgiving so we thought... what's the most iconic Thanksgiving event? MACY'S DAY PARADE!! Today we are joined by Keven, Anne, Kelsey, Elain and the VERY SPECIAL Jeffery Graham. What are the routes of the parade and we discuss why we think the distance changed. The iconic balloons in the parade - Do Elain and Kelsey know who certain characters are? The horrific accidents that have happened during the parades. And do you think we made Jeff cry by the end of the episode?
