Thank you Robyn Cage for the 8th straight year put in extra work, dedication, and the urge to down NOS Energy drinks on a lam to put together a show for you. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the ceremony most of America is finally getting. Yes folks, we're nearly live but on some videotape or laserdisc form at the McLaughlin Community Center gym in Pacific Bay, where the ceremony is hotter than Australia in the summer. This place is filled with the biggest stars and the courage of  those who all year long process what they watched in real time. And in the ceremony that will capture the masses of the fans, everyone here is gathered for the golden brain award that is a ceremony of the fans. The great Wayne Gretzky said this: You Miss 100% of the shots you don't take. So don't let yourself take a brain freeze whenever you answer a question or solve the puzzle or guess the price of the showcase. with the golden brans at stake, somebody's gotta win, but you the fans rush out to the polls on Cyber Monday and made your voice heard. Every Wednesday, we're all here together to report on the ongoings of a TV genre that's timeless. This isn't a punt return, this is a hail mary to end 2024, so let's all join in one last time this year and get the dynamic kickoff underway. With all of that, let's get out first award of the night right..................................now. The great Billy Sunday once said, "When is A revival Needed?" Well, if he was around here today, he'd be seeing these......nominees.

Feel like you belong with the stars? 🌟 Sinatra made Fly Me To The Moon a classic, but it’s the kind of tune that never gets old. Catch me singing it live—details in my stories. 🎶✨ #FlyMeToTheMoon #ClassicJazz #AmericanJazz #FemaleVocalist #StarryNights

On to the next one. Game Show hosting is the toughest task anyone can take. These celebrities want to give it a shot like Duck Hunt or Lethal Enforcers. The nominees we picked feel more like they're in the glow they basked much like Rayburn, Martindale, Narz, Kennedy, etc., etc. Watch this.
