That's givedirectly.org slash happiness lab.
The show was ahead of its time to represent a Black family in ways the television hadn't shown before. Exactly. It's Thelma Hopkins, also known as Aunt Rachel. And I'm Kelly Williams, or Laura Winslow. On our podcast, Welcome to the Family with Thelma and Kelly, we're re-watching every episode of Family Matters. We'll share behind-the-scenes stories about making the show.
Yeah, we'll even bring in some special guests to spill some tea. Listen to Welcome to the Family with Thelma and Kelly on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I didn't really have an interest in being on air. I kind of was up there to just try and infiltrate the building.
From the underground clubs that shaped global music to the pastors and creatives who built the cultural empire, the Atlanta Ears podcast uncovers the stories behind one of the most influential cities in the world. The thing I love about Atlanta is that it's a city of hustlers, man.

Chapter 3: What iconic Thanksgiving episode features a turkey drop stunt?
What? Buried under his property were five solid gold bars and a stash of gold coins worth over $800,000. Oh, my God. That's when you're so happy that the former owners were bank robbers. Yeah. You're like, thank God.
Yeah.
The question is, when you find literal buried treasure in your property, what do you do? Well, Olivier did the noble thing, and he contacted the local authorities to report it.
Oh, yeah. The police are going to come and be like, oh, yeah, we got it.
Yeah, that is so right.
Well, he figured, you know, they'll study it, maybe find the historical significance behind it, determine the real value, and then they'd let him keep it since it's on his property. Or maybe a museum would pay him a huge sum so that they could display it at the Louvre. Why do I feel like this isn't going to work out for him? Well, turns out Olivier was a little screwed. Oh.
Because the discovered gold bars were only about 15 years old. Oh, yikes. Oh, I thought they were ancient.

Chapter 4: Which TV show had a character slap their friend on Thanksgiving?
That's what he thought. But no, they had serial numbers on them that could be traced to the person who made them, which come to find out was the previous owner of that house. Oh. So he, like, forgot? Yeah, but then isn't there a finder's keeper's rule in France? Well, you would think. Nobody knows why they buried it in the backyard, but rightfully, the gold belonged to the original owner.
I'm sorry. If you forget to dig up your buried gold before you moved, you didn't really need it anyway.
You don't hear that advice very often, do you?
Well, if you need some money, you know exactly where it is. Exactly.
So Olivier was forced to give up the entire $800,000 treasure trove, and he ended up with nothing. I shouldn't say nothing. He got his pool. Saddest pool ever. And thanks to his terrible decision to do the right thing, that makes Olivier our new Hero of the Week. Should have just stole it. Come on, Olivier. Don't call the cops.

Chapter 5: What is the significance of Thanksgiving episodes in sitcoms?
Now we're going to move on to the shot caller question of the day with a man who's about to drop some gold bars of trivia right on our faces. Jake, go for it. Take it away. Back in the 1970s, there was a popular TV sitcom called WKRP in Cincinnati. Oh. How do I know? Is this News Radio, Jake?
No, it's a different show.
It's called News Radio. My bad. Oh, wait. WKRP in Cincinnati followed the crazy antics of employees who worked at a fictional radio station called WKRP.
Ah, we're wacky.
And that show had one of the most iconic Thanksgiving episodes of all time called Turkeys Away, where the radio station does a promotional stunt. They drop live turkeys out of a flying helicopter, not realizing the turkeys themselves can't Dude, what a great episode.
How have I never seen that?
Chaos ensues. Television history was made. But it's not the only TV show to have an unforgettable Thanksgiving episode.

Chapter 6: How do Thanksgiving episodes reflect cultural themes?
That's why today we're doing a special Cranberry Classics edition of... 20 of 20. Okay. You guys will say number 1 through 20. I'll give you a hint about the iconic Turkey Day TV moment. You just have to name the show or possibly a character to name Stay in the Game. Okay. We'll start with the woman who also just now learned that turkeys can't fly. That's Alexis.
Dirtyness. Seven.
Number seven. Alexis, what famous CBS show had an episode titled Happy Slapsgiving where one character slapped the other one across the face to fulfill a slap bet? Oh. All right, CBS show.
I don't know what CBS is.
CBS, not CVS. That's a drugstore. I don't even know what channel this is.
Yeah, someone getting slapped at a CBS is pretty common.

Chapter 7: What are some lesser-known Thanksgiving episodes worth watching?
I think the major networks are feeling very important after that comment from Alexis.
Yeah, sorry. Uh, Modern Family. It's not a bad guess.
Don't think that's CBS. Modern Family is incorrect. The CBS show was How I Met Your Mother, stemmed from a bet between Barney and Marshall. Oh, that's kind of fun. We should do more slap bets around here. I would love slap bets. Brooke, it's your turn. Seven is off the board. Give me 15.
Brooke, which Friends character accidentally drops a full turkey on the floor during Thanksgiving dinner, creating chaos for the whole apartment?
Oh.
I need the first and last name of the character. No help from anyone else, please. The one who dropped it. The one who dropped it?
Is the person who drops it the same as who gets it stuck on their head?

Chapter 8: Why do Thanksgiving episodes remain popular in television?
See, I don't think it is. Yeah, that's what I don't know. That's why I'm thinking, but I don't want to say who gets stuck on their head. No help, please.
I feel like it's funnier if the person who drops the turkey is the one who would never drop the turkey.
Yeah.
That's why I feel like it's Monica. Yeah, that's a good strat. But I don't know Monica's last name. I'll give you a hint. It's the same as Ross's last name. Oh, Bing. I guess at the end of the show it is Bing. It's Chandler's last name. I guess I can accept Monica Bing. Monica Bing. Wrong person the entire time. Geller is Ross and Monica's last name. Rachel Green.
Jennifer Aniston's character was notoriously clumsy in the show.
Oopsie, I dropped the turkey.
Jose, we're over to you. Seven and 15 are off the board. Five. Jose, which Simpsons character gets a giant turkey stuck on their head every Thanksgiving, much to everyone's horror? I should know this. It should be like, oh, duh. And that's what's weird because I don't remember this happening, but the only person that I could think would just be clumsy enough would be Homer.
Don't forget his last name. Bing. Homer Simpson, Jake. Homer Simpson is correct. I didn't realize so many TV shows use the turkey over the head trope. It's pretty funny. It's funny every time. One of us should try it at our family's dinner just once this year. No, you couldn't really fit. I don't think it really works. Think of how hot it would be.
Ew. Ew.
