Talknowledgy talknowledgy@gmail.com Phil and Dave talk turkey on this week's show with coverage of Black Friday and the role Facebook played in this year's Presidential turkey pardon. We also take a look at Foursquare's dismal 2012 revenue predictions and the latest in the Apple vs Samsung saga. We have two Hashtag Fails of the week this week. First, we chat about Lindsey Stone's tasteless Facebook photo that got her in hot water with her boss. We also look at slow performing websites and how much it costs businesses annually when their sites take longer than three seconds to load. And finally, our YouTube (anti)Hero this week is Nicole Westbrook. Her video "It's Thanksgiving" has become the third most disliked YouTube video of all time, and it was only released on November 7, 2012.

This week's "Creepy or Awesome?!" is centred on the recent Twitter outrage when big man Pau Gasol from the NBA Lakers missed the last shot of the game handing the historic club yet another early season loss. Our YouTube Hero this week is Ron Swanson's pro-Movember video encouraging men to keep growing their "mos" and raise money for men's health. It also has some guest appearances from cast members from "The Office". Finally, a military sex scandal gets our #Hashtag Fail of the Week.

The main difference between this new feature, and the existing marketplace function, is you now have to pay to have your ad seen. Our "YouTube Hero" this week is Cleveland Cavaliers guard Kyrie Irving. He reprises his role as Uncle Drew in a Pepsi Max commercial posted to YouTube this past Tuesday. The first video he did, posted May 2012, received 16 million views. Adding to the interest, Irving himself, wrote and directed both commercials.

On the legal side, Apple may not be able to sell their new device in the US for long due to alleged infringement on Samsung's and HTC's patents. We also chat about people being caught behaving badly online. Law enforcement officials are using photo sharing sites, like Instagram, to track down and persecute people who post images of themselves using drugs. And in the "Creepy or Awesome?!" segment we share our thoughts about an Ottawa restaurant owner plead guilty to creating a fake sex profile site to get back at one of her customers for writing a bad online review of her restaurant.

Phil drops into the Social Media Breakfast Ottawa to chat with Collin Douma, Global Digital Planning Director at BBDO New York, about how the digital age is putting an end to demographics.
