About this episode

Swerving the controversial U.S. Thanksgiving holiday, the team instead circles the globe talking to people with ties to Portugal, South Africa, and Mexico. SCAM OF THE WEEK: Frankie Quiñones (host of the new podcast, "The Frankie Quiñones Show" presented by Will Ferrell) talks about sleeping on a friend's couch for YEARS before landing a TV deal at TBS. WORST & FIRST: From the largest city in Portugal, Lisbon, an ex-pat had to talk sh*t…. literally and figuratively. In the CORPORATE SUITE and NOW HIRING, an artisanal ice cream maker in Cape Town serves African-inspired frozen treats and talks about his efforts to “boost the African ego.” @Rod4Short reminisces over a French flame and explains how Megan Thee Stallion's bodyguard choked out an international reporter.
