Here is an article mentioning the upcoming Spike TV program which will air Thanksgiving Day at 11am and 7pm.
On Thanksgiving I will be on SPIKE TV eating cranberry sauce at the "kids table". With a top 3 finish I can make it back to the "big boy" table and compete in the SPIKE TV Finals with the likes of these two characters and others. Wish me luck.
