If you don't watch "the West Wing" you won't understand it.
Every year a turkey gets a presidential pardon and as such that turkey is not killed for Thanksgiving but gets to live a life of luxury, this is a real life thing, one happened a couple of weeks ago.
President Bartlett (of the West Wing), also considers himself to be a bit of a cook and throughout the episode there is an ongoing discussion about whether you cook the stuffing separately (in which case, how can you call it stuffing as you have not stuffed it in anything, just put it in a tray), or stuff the neck. Goes on to say there should be a helpline you can call for these things and one of his assistants mentions the butterball helpline.
Show ends with Pres B on the phone to the BB Helpline asking about stuffing (with the person on the other end saying your voice sounds familiar).
