[00:00:00] Speaker A: What is the must haves at Thanksgiving? [00:00:04] Speaker B: What do you mean, what is the must haves? Like, what you got You. It has to be there. [00:00:08] Speaker A: Yeah, like. Like, if I invited you over and there was these three. I don't know what your top three, top four are. Like, what you gotta have at Thanksgiving. [00:00:17] Speaker B: Well, number one, I mean, are we gonna include turkey? Because, like, turkey's almost a given, right? [00:00:21] Speaker A: So there's been some places I've been. So there's the first one. [00:00:26] Speaker B: I just. I just don't want turkey to be one of the options. I thought we. We could spread it. [00:00:30] Speaker A: I don't think, bro. I've been places where they don't do turkey. [00:00:33] Speaker B: Who doesn't do turkey on Thanksgiving? Which one of y' all out there does not do turkey on Thanksgiving? I want to talk to you, not point at the people. The way the comments. The way the comments come at me. I'm pointing. [00:00:47] Speaker A: 20 in the city. [00:00:48] Speaker B: Aloha, yo. [00:00:51] Speaker A: You ever have something when something just clicks? You just had a realization. [00:00:55] Speaker B: Of course. [00:00:56] Speaker A: So sorry. Twitty in the city. I'm Twitty. That is thc, the Hawaiian comedian. I feel like at some point I feel like I need to stop just introducing us sometimes because I feel like everybody know us, but I'm thinking about you. The brand newbies. Hit the, like, hit the subscribe. You're gonna want to do it. [00:01:12] Speaker B: Yep. [00:01:12] Speaker A: THC stays in the comments. Deep in the comments. [00:01:15] Speaker B: Deep. [00:01:16] Speaker A: This ain't no thumbs up. Just happening. No, there's full paragraphs. I see you sometimes writing with people, and I'm like, I'm not even gonna ask. [00:01:23] Speaker B: Oh, no, you should. [00:01:24] Speaker A: Conversation. [00:01:24] Speaker B: You should, you should. You should ask. [00:01:26] Speaker A: I probably should. It's just I kind of am upset that I catch that thread and it has like a plus seven, and then I catch the one that's like the best part. So then I gotta go back and read to figure out how y'. All. So stay in the comments. Thc. Y' all having y' all own little side conversation. We might have our side. [00:01:42] Speaker B: I just. I just like. I just like the interaction, man. I. I like the people coming in and just. And just commenting, saying this, saying that. Giving. Giving their own little descriptions and. And. And showing that they have relatable and. And like the same stories that we going through. [00:01:56] Speaker A: Yeah, exactly. [00:01:56] Speaker B: That. [00:01:57] Speaker A: This is for. [00:01:58] Speaker B: That one about the milk. Like, we. We had so many comments coming back about different types of milk. How some people went straight, like, whole milk. Now. That's all they drink now. [00:02:05] Speaker A: Yeah, it's a big deal that, you know, I just thought of, if we get to that point, that could be a side podcast chatting with thc. It's just all the comments that you've been chatting back and forth about, we might just have. [00:02:16] Speaker B: We might have to do something like that connected to the channel. Do a live. Do a live one and just be. [00:02:20] Speaker A: Like, go ahead, throw them out. [00:02:21] Speaker B: Whatever you want to say. [00:02:22] Speaker A: Yeah, that'd be dope. Speaking of, I just realized, bro. [00:02:26] Speaker B: What's that? [00:02:27] Speaker A: We're two months away from it being a full year. [00:02:29] Speaker B: Shut up. [00:02:30] Speaker A: Yes, bro, we're two. [00:02:31] Speaker B: Shut up. Are you serious? [00:02:32] Speaker A: We're two months away, bro. This is October we started, bro. That's crazy. [00:02:38] Speaker B: But I just. What happened to 2025, bro? [00:02:41] Speaker A: I don't know. Like. [00:02:42] Speaker B: Like that fast. [00:02:43] Speaker A: You do a podcast and your weeks go by. But you know what that means. We got to do something and we got to. Definitely, we going to be here. Definitely, we going to be here. [00:02:52] Speaker B: We. [00:02:53] Speaker A: December 4th, December 5th, whatever that Wednesday is going to be. That's when we started in 2024. [00:02:58] Speaker B: December 11th. [00:03:01] Speaker A: That was the fourth. [00:03:02] Speaker B: Nope. December 11th. [00:03:03] Speaker A: No, we know. We talked about starting the first week, but we didn't. [00:03:07] Speaker B: It started this December 11th. [00:03:09] Speaker A: I. Either way, we're coming up on the year. If you got ideas or things you want us to do, like I said, have a flashback, topics you have heard us discuss, and you want a round two of put it in the comments. I think that's a great way to celebrate now. [00:03:23] Speaker B: You know what would be a good way is if we do that. And, well, and while we do talk about that, that's what we go live with. To where people can just come in. They can just come in and be like, hey, man, when you said, blah, blah, blah, blah, this and this, like, I. I'd like to go back to that Craftsman deal again, because I think everybody. [00:03:37] Speaker A: The Craftsman is the one that is. [00:03:39] Speaker B: Just to this day, I'm still doing. I'm seeing comments. [00:03:42] Speaker A: You still. [00:03:43] Speaker B: To this day. Like, I think there was one yesterday. [00:03:46] Speaker A: Beginning of summer. Yeah, I think way back. I don't know. Yeah. But either way, we got two months, and then this is a full year. Again, get in the comments if you have a topic or an idea you want us to do to celebrate the one year. Because again, without y', all, we wouldn't have made it a year. [00:04:01] Speaker B: Correct. [00:04:01] Speaker A: So correct. And speaking of timelines and things coming up, thc, you ready for this? [00:04:08] Speaker B: Go ahead. [00:04:09] Speaker A: Thanksgiving is about a month and so away. Okay. And my wife, the Other day, we make. She makes what's called. We call it fakesgiving. And so we basically, instead of, like, having a turkey, we just get a rotisserie from Winco and do stuffing and then mashed potatoes and just make it into, like, a. Like those cakes. [00:04:28] Speaker B: You do that the day before Thanksgiving? [00:04:29] Speaker A: No, we just. We just did it like a week ago. It's. We call it fakesgiving because we just have the craving of Thanksgiving, but we don't want the full meal. [00:04:37] Speaker B: Why not? [00:04:38] Speaker A: That's a lot of work, dog. [00:04:39] Speaker B: I know. [00:04:39] Speaker A: She cooked the turkey. [00:04:40] Speaker B: It's so worth it, though. It is so worth it. [00:04:42] Speaker A: And so with that being said, it had me thinking, because you and I never had this conversation. What is the must haves at Thanksgiving? [00:04:53] Speaker B: What do you mean? What is the must haves? Like, what you got? It has to be there. [00:04:56] Speaker A: Yeah. If I invited you over and there was these three. I don't know what your top three. Three top four are. Like, what you gotta have at Thanksgiving. [00:05:05] Speaker B: Well, number one, I mean, are we going to include turkey? Because, like, turkey's almost a given. Right? [00:05:10] Speaker A: So there's been some places I've been. So there's the first one. [00:05:14] Speaker B: I just. I just don't want turkey to be one of the options. I thought we. We could spread it. [00:05:19] Speaker A: I don't think you can, bro. I've been places where they don't do turkey. [00:05:22] Speaker B: Who doesn't do turkey on Thanksgiving? Which one of y' all out there does not do turkey on Thanksgiving? I want to talk to you, not point at the people. The way the comments. The way the comments come at me. I'm pointing. Who out there does not use a turkey? That's what you supposed to do. I'm going tell you something. [00:05:36] Speaker A: Get in the comments. By the way, he's serious. Who is not? [00:05:40] Speaker B: It is. It is. There is a certain type of like, for me. I'm going tell you how it goes. Okay. Thanksgiving turkey. [00:05:45] Speaker A: Huh? [00:05:46] Speaker B: Christmas ham. Happy New Year's prime rib. [00:05:51] Speaker A: Oh, that's how. [00:05:53] Speaker B: That's how it's gone down in my house since I was a kid. Yeah. And you got to have turkey. So that's what I'm saying is I didn't want to use turkey as one of my three choices. [00:06:01] Speaker A: Okay. [00:06:01] Speaker B: So I wanted to be turkey to be. Just to give him. [00:06:04] Speaker A: I agree with you. I'm on team turkey. So we can both escort that. [00:06:08] Speaker B: Okay. Okay. [00:06:08] Speaker A: So turkey. [00:06:09] Speaker B: So there's three other options I got. [00:06:11] Speaker A: Okay, let's say that your turkey is your main protein. What's your three sides. [00:06:16] Speaker B: Okay. It has to be there. [00:06:18] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, if you pulled up and you look at the spread you were looking for the turkey, and then these three things. [00:06:25] Speaker B: Gotcha. Mashed potatoes. [00:06:28] Speaker A: Yes. [00:06:28] Speaker B: 100. [00:06:29] Speaker A: Yep. [00:06:30] Speaker B: I. I will. I'll be like, that's a nice turkey. But you. No potatoes. Like, none. Like, all you got is scalloped. Nah, I'm good. [00:06:38] Speaker A: No. Okay. Got you. Gotcha. So you want true mash. [00:06:41] Speaker B: True mash. Not that stuff out the box. I want true mashed potatoes baked. [00:06:45] Speaker A: Your potato boy did. Boiled it. Boiled it. Boiled. [00:06:49] Speaker B: Boiled it. [00:06:50] Speaker A: Take the masher. [00:06:53] Speaker B: I'm gonna throw this one out there because most people aren't a fan of these, but I am. I'm a huge fan of it. Green bean casserole. Oh, green bean casserole. And it's gotta have a little fried onions on top, and it's. [00:07:04] Speaker A: Yeah. And it's got to be in the. What is that called? Not a cast iron skillet, but the. [00:07:09] Speaker B: The square glass dish. Yeah. Or the rectangle. Yeah, it's the rectangle one. Yeah. [00:07:13] Speaker A: But it can't be the. It can't be the long one. It can't be the. [00:07:16] Speaker B: It's got to be the square. [00:07:17] Speaker A: Yes. The ex. Yeah. [00:07:18] Speaker B: It's got to be the one that. Some of that. If not, they use it for cornbread later. [00:07:22] Speaker A: Yes. [00:07:23] Speaker B: Okay. [00:07:23] Speaker A: Y. That. I don't know why. To me, if it's not. Not in that pan, there's something about it being in a smaller pan that makes it feel like it's more valuable. [00:07:31] Speaker B: I feel like it cooks it more evenly, too, because, like, my. That. It'll be, like, evenly hot and evenly distributed when you get it in the rectangle. Sometimes that middle. [00:07:39] Speaker A: Yes. [00:07:39] Speaker B: Don't get it. But the ends will always get it. But if you put it in that square. Perfect. [00:07:43] Speaker A: Yes. [00:07:43] Speaker B: So mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, and. [00:07:48] Speaker A: I would say my third is a very. You might consider mine. Some people just consider mine a dessert. I'll tell you right now, mine is cranberry sauce. [00:07:57] Speaker B: Cranberry sauce or cram or, like, the slice. [00:08:00] Speaker A: Slice the slice. [00:08:01] Speaker B: The little jelly out the. Out the. Even when it come out the can, it still looks like the can. [00:08:05] Speaker A: Yes. [00:08:05] Speaker B: Oh, that's. Okay. So. No, that's. That's. [00:08:07] Speaker A: You. That's my third. I got to. I have to. I got to have cranberry sauce. I got to. Well, grandma would. Would literally buy three cans, and one can was solely for me. That's how much she knew I had to have it. Okay. But that's my three. So it's turkey by default. Mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, and cranberry sauce. Those are my three. [00:08:31] Speaker B: My third is hot baked rolls. Nice hot baked rolls where that butter. You take that little square and you split the side of that little roll and. And you put that little square in there. And then you go back like 20 seconds later, nice and melted in the thing. That way when you dip it. [00:08:48] Speaker A: Interesting. [00:08:48] Speaker B: That way when you dip it in the mashed potatoes, because you got a little bit of that gravy and a little bit of that thing. Boom. And then you got the turkey to follow. It's a wrap. [00:08:55] Speaker A: That's. [00:08:57] Speaker B: It's. I got to have another type of starch, another type of bread. Like, the roll is like. The roll comes a long way. Especially like in my household. [00:09:05] Speaker A: It's a very deceiving asset, though. Though I. I respect the role. [00:09:09] Speaker B: Do you know what it is? You know what a role is to a big dinner like that? I'm gonna tell you what a role is. The role is those nice little caps. It's a cap that you put on your tire. Like, it's not important really. Like, you know, but if it's missing. [00:09:21] Speaker A: Yeah. You won't. You. [00:09:22] Speaker B: You come to a stop and you notice that somebody. Yep. [00:09:26] Speaker A: You're a little concerned. [00:09:27] Speaker B: That's. That's the cap. It's the cap that goes on. It is a little rolls. And it could be any kind of rose. The Hawaiian rolls. It could be the nice baked rolls that come for me. [00:09:38] Speaker A: Hawaiian rolls are Christmas, New Year's, for Thanksgiving, I need the fat boy. Because what I'm doing is I'm taking my core three, and I'm making a sandwich. And that's why I need the cranberry sauce, because I take the turkey. [00:09:49] Speaker B: There you go. [00:09:50] Speaker A: See stuff in. [00:09:52] Speaker B: I need my rolls. I need rolls, rolls, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole. And the roll is pretty much for me when I'm done, that's what I use to clean my plate. [00:10:01] Speaker A: Oh, I need it. I still gotta do cranberry sauce. If I had a fourth, it'd be the roll, probably. [00:10:07] Speaker B: Okay. [00:10:07] Speaker A: If I had a fourth, I'd go the roll. But I cannot go without cranberry sauce. And it's gotta be the jello, the jelly. I don't like actual cranberries in my cranberries. [00:10:16] Speaker B: Which is funny. Cause I believe I actually made my plate a couple of times. Exactly what I said. Just turkey, green bean casserole, turkey and mashed potatoes. That's all I had with a roll. [00:10:25] Speaker A: My first plate is always a little bit of something and then my second. Second is what I really came there for. [00:10:31] Speaker B: Oh, so you get what you come for in the second run? [00:10:34] Speaker A: If I'm. Okay, let me rephrase that. [00:10:36] Speaker B: I gotta get it in the first. [00:10:37] Speaker A: If. If I'm going to somebody else's house. [00:10:39] Speaker B: Okay. [00:10:40] Speaker A: And I don't know them. [00:10:41] Speaker B: Okay. [00:10:41] Speaker A: I get a little bit of everything to try my own house or like if I came to your house or I go to my in laws. Oh, first plate is me. Yeah, yeah, first plate. First plate is me. And then somebody will be like, you didn't want to try that? I'm like, I'm gonna try it. This first plate has to be me. I want everything to just hit. [00:10:58] Speaker B: Well, it's weird too, is that you had told me like I have never really been to somebody else's house that has never cooked a turkey. [00:11:04] Speaker A: Oh, you. [00:11:04] Speaker B: You have. [00:11:05] Speaker A: I have. [00:11:06] Speaker B: What? What substitute? What? Now was this like a. I could. I could. That's a cool substitute for turkey. Or was it one of those? [00:11:13] Speaker A: No. [00:11:13] Speaker B: Why did you pick that? [00:11:15] Speaker A: No. So I've been to two. So one. One was ham. And I was like, okay. But it's close. It's okay. [00:11:24] Speaker B: I mean. Yeah. [00:11:25] Speaker A: You didn't go way left field. [00:11:26] Speaker B: It's a holiday meet. [00:11:27] Speaker A: Yeah, it's at least a holiday meet. That's exactly how I felt when I saw it. I was like, not turkey. [00:11:35] Speaker B: Now, was it made up too? Did it have the pineapple and all that? It was like really nice. Okay. [00:11:39] Speaker A: Real nice. It had the pineapple. [00:11:41] Speaker B: Okay, so it was still holiday ish. [00:11:42] Speaker A: Yeah, it had a syrupy, had that little like maple syrup glaze. The glaze to it is what I'm trying to call it. [00:11:47] Speaker B: So. [00:11:47] Speaker A: Yeah. And it was in the. It was, it was in the same tin foil frickin pan. Like the turkey. It was the ham. [00:11:53] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:11:54] Speaker A: Another place I went to, they didn't have turkey, didn't have ham. [00:12:00] Speaker B: Chicken. [00:12:01] Speaker A: Didn't have chicken. [00:12:02] Speaker B: Whoa, whoa, whoa. What? [00:12:03] Speaker A: They did meatloaf. [00:12:05] Speaker B: Meatloaf. Did they do the ketchup top? [00:12:08] Speaker A: And they did ketchup and they did ketchup top. And I like meatloaf, but that ain't what I want on Thanksgiving. [00:12:16] Speaker B: Did it, did it have everything else? [00:12:19] Speaker A: No. So they had. [00:12:21] Speaker B: And this was on actual. This was on actual Thanksgiving day. [00:12:26] Speaker A: Pulled up, smelling all. I smelled all the. [00:12:29] Speaker B: Okay, now before I believe it, now before I jump through hoops and start hurting feelings and everything. Okay. I'M just saying. I'm just saying before we go farther, because I'll be following comments sometimes. So I'm trying to be careful with this. Now, was this meatloaf? Because this is all the folks had. [00:12:45] Speaker A: No. Oh, no. [00:12:46] Speaker B: So they were able to get a turkey. They was able to do all that. They was able to. Because I'm. I know there's gonna be somebody in the comments. [00:12:51] Speaker A: I did not hear a. Sorry. This was. This was the flat out, like. [00:12:55] Speaker B: Because I mean, that. That if. If I come to your house and you make me dinner, any. If anybody makes me dinner, I'm gonna be. I'm gonna be more than appreciated, no matter what. No, I mean, it might be a little weird, but if somebody goes, yo, man, that's all I could get was. Was meatloaf dog. Like, I'd be like, dude, this is the best meatloaf I ever ate. [00:13:11] Speaker A: No, this was not. Couldn't get anything. They also wanted to host and said they were gonna have the spread. And so for me, when I hear the spread, the whole thing, I'm thinking at least turkey and ham. [00:13:26] Speaker B: Correct. [00:13:26] Speaker A: Like I said, I'll do the ham. [00:13:28] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:13:28] Speaker A: I really want the turkey. [00:13:29] Speaker B: I'll bring some sparkling cider. [00:13:30] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, No, I get you, but no, they did. Meatloaf, had Mac and cheese, had. Scalloped potatoes, but no mash. Had no stuffing. [00:13:40] Speaker B: Had. [00:13:42] Speaker A: What's that called? [00:13:44] Speaker B: Well, I don't know. [00:13:45] Speaker A: If you put. [00:13:45] Speaker B: Can you put stuffing with meatloaf? Does that really go to go? That really don't go to go. [00:13:50] Speaker A: This is where all the confusion came because I was like, see, to me, stuffing and turkey is that. That's the combo you gotta have. [00:13:57] Speaker B: Exactly, exactly. [00:13:58] Speaker A: Ham and stuffing, you could kind of make it work, but it's like turkey and stuffing is like. That's like a number one value meal at McDonald's. [00:14:06] Speaker B: Like, you gotta get. [00:14:06] Speaker A: You get the meal with the fries and the drink. That'd be like getting a meal. But they only gave you, like the. The little apple. [00:14:13] Speaker B: Apple pie. [00:14:14] Speaker A: It's like, where's the fries? [00:14:15] Speaker B: Right, right, right. [00:14:16] Speaker A: So, yeah, so they had. Yeah, it was very odd. They had no cranberry sauce. I was very hurt. [00:14:20] Speaker B: Did you finish your plate, though? [00:14:22] Speaker A: I did. I had to. [00:14:24] Speaker B: If you was to rate the meatloaf right now, like how we used to rate where we are from. From. From all the way from one to fire, where we. What was the meatloaf? [00:14:33] Speaker A: It was. It was a five. It was a five. It was a five. [00:14:36] Speaker B: Oh, okay. It was Light, heat. Light, yeah. [00:14:37] Speaker A: Light, heat. [00:14:38] Speaker B: Light, heat. Okay. [00:14:39] Speaker A: It had, it had flavor. But again, I was in Thanksgiving mode. [00:14:43] Speaker B: No, no. And see, and that's where. [00:14:44] Speaker A: And that's where flavor sometimes. [00:14:46] Speaker B: Oh yeah. [00:14:46] Speaker A: Because I think that meatloaf on like summer or spring would have been an eight. Yeah, but I was in, I was in turkey mode, bro. [00:14:54] Speaker B: And. Exactly. See, and that's what some folks don't get. Like when, when it's like when you hear you're about to eat something, like there is something that turns on in your head that actually goes, okay, this is how I picture it. I picture it. It's a, it's a little person in my head and he's going, okay, I wonder what he's gonna eat today. Because I know when I think about like if I put a jolly rancher, if I'm thinking about a jolly rancher or something that's like sour or sweet or something like that, if I think about that, my mouth starts salivating already and it's like. But it only triggers because the little dude in my head's like, oh, he about to get a sour. But he turned on this. Turn on this switch. [00:15:27] Speaker A: Turn on the south. [00:15:28] Speaker B: So you already. Yeah, you had that same little person in your. The minute you heard we had the spread, that person was like, okay, we went turkey. Yeah, mashed potatoes. And he was turning on all the switches. [00:15:37] Speaker A: Oh, he was turning on every switch. And also telling me like, hey, yeah, you making breakfast, be smart because we got the spread correct. Like, correct. So you know, at one o', clock, like, go, don't be going ham at breakfast because we getting a spread at 1. [00:15:50] Speaker B: So you put, you got yourself in mode. Oh, everything in mode in the minute. And this is what happened. I think, I think that dude had all the switches on for all the different foods on the spread of Thanksgiving. And you was like, here we go. And the minute he, he was probably sitting back in his chair. [00:16:03] Speaker A: Oh, he was probably relaxing. [00:16:05] Speaker B: He sees what you see. The minute you seen that it was Meatlo. He probably said, what? And I didn't even hit that switch. I gotta hit that switch. Now he's starting to turn off switches. Cuz now your, your taste buds now is sad. [00:16:17] Speaker A: I was very sad. Very, very sad when that happens. So yeah, I'm again, I like meatloaf. That is not, that's not the protein I want on Thanksgiving. [00:16:27] Speaker B: No, but it's still good. [00:16:28] Speaker A: It was like I said, it was a five. [00:16:30] Speaker B: Okay. [00:16:30] Speaker A: I, I really think any other time of the year it's an 8. It would have been an 8, but. [00:16:34] Speaker B: You told me we was going to Disneyland and we ended up at the fair. [00:16:37] Speaker A: Yeah, exactly. [00:16:38] Speaker B: Gotcha. [00:16:38] Speaker A: And I still. And I didn't even get you was. [00:16:40] Speaker B: In Disneyland mode and everything. Yeah. [00:16:42] Speaker A: Oh yeah. Was ready to hit every ride, every. Just all that. So yeah, I. For anybody that wants to invite me now, you know, you could literally. You can literally make my plate. And I would eat that five times in a row. Those three to four things are my core. Okay, I gotta have it. Are you traditional style bake your turkey or are you now on this new deep frying it? [00:17:05] Speaker B: I. I have been wanting to deep fry my turkey for the last two years. Never. But it's so funny because every time I decide, okay, this is how I'm do it, then there's like 98, 000 videos everybody burning down their porch on YouTube and it's like, it makes me not want to do it anymore. And I'm like, I, I seen the way you're supposed to like put it in the pot and then fill it up with water first so that you can find where the line is. So that when you, if you see where the, the water line is above the turkey, then you take the turkey out, when that water goes down, you, you fill it. The oil, the peanut oil? Yes, it's got to be peanut oil and you got to fill it up to that line. But then like sometimes I get scared because I know what happens if you put something cold in oil. So like I, I just. There's always a piece of me that's like, nah, there's something in that turkey that ain't all the way frosted. The defrosted through. Yeah, there's. There's one. [00:17:57] Speaker A: And that's. [00:17:58] Speaker B: And that triggers all that shit. [00:18:00] Speaker A: Well, and see, for me it's a. I mean you can still do it. It's a different way. But there's just something about. To me baking it in the oven, you are able to actually poke your holes and let your butter and all your sauce get underneath the skin. Because that to me is what makes a good turkey. It's the flavor that is in between the meat and the skin. [00:18:21] Speaker B: Popper. You put the popper in it? [00:18:24] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, I have the little bread. [00:18:26] Speaker B: You ever got one turkey where the popper didn't come for it with it and then you got to go look for that? [00:18:30] Speaker A: I haven't, man. [00:18:31] Speaker B: That is. [00:18:32] Speaker A: I've locked up. And now I had that situation. I've heard, oh yeah. [00:18:36] Speaker B: And it's hard to Go find just a little popper. [00:18:38] Speaker A: Well, I bet. Because it's. It's an ex. It's like it's expectation. It's an expectation. [00:18:42] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. And when it's not in there. And when it's not in there, what are we supposed to do? Like, I'm. I'm like, I go off of that little. That little. That little thing helps me out a. [00:18:49] Speaker A: Lot because I do my guide. [00:18:51] Speaker B: We do it in a. We do it in a bag. [00:18:55] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [00:18:57] Speaker B: Stuff the turkey. Butter the turkey. All that stuff butters under the skin. Yeah, all that stuff in there. And then I put it in a bag. Put all the stuff inside the bag. The bag. Close the bag up, cook it in the bat in the oven bag. Oh, man. Dad, Turkey keeps all the juice, keeps everything in there. Instead of me having to go in there every now and then and pour it on there and pour it on there and pour it on there. It keeps it all built up in there. [00:19:18] Speaker A: Oh, heat condensation. [00:19:20] Speaker B: Oh, brah. Turkey's been. Turkey's been fantastic these last couple years. Oh, yeah. [00:19:25] Speaker A: Okay. I was like, you put it in a bag. I was like, what are you. [00:19:27] Speaker B: That's why I gotta go. That's why even if I go to somebody else's house, I gotta go ham on the first. On the first serving. [00:19:32] Speaker A: I respect it. [00:19:33] Speaker B: Cause turkey. The minute I get turkey in me, by the second round, I probably won't finish that plate. Cause I probably fall asleep right there at the table. [00:19:39] Speaker A: Well, and see, my thing, too is that I've. I've been places where the turkey is dry and it's backfired on me because I've. I've had this expectation that everybody. And it's not true. Everybody knows how to cook a turkey. [00:19:51] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:19:51] Speaker A: And so I load up. [00:19:52] Speaker B: Oh, it's not true. [00:19:52] Speaker A: Yeah. I load up. And then I don't like that turkey. [00:19:55] Speaker B: Okay. [00:19:55] Speaker A: But I've been raised. Whatever's on your plate, you gotta finish. [00:19:59] Speaker B: Okay. Like how you just. Now how you just talked about it. What you're saying is, am I do. Do I cook it like the normal way that people cook it or do. Or I deep fry. What are the different. Was there any way that somebody had cooked a turkey that you went over and you was just like, I didn't know you could do that. [00:20:15] Speaker A: I think two deep frying and then smoking a turkey. [00:20:20] Speaker B: Smoking turkey. I've seen that, but that was. I seen somebody cooking a turkey on a grill. [00:20:25] Speaker A: Oh, I've never seen that on a gas grill. That's Some. How. How low were they. They had to been cooking that thing at like 200, man. We didn't eat dinner because it took too long. [00:20:36] Speaker B: It took way too long. Yeah, it couldn't. It didn't cook evenly. It was little. Nah, it was. [00:20:40] Speaker A: That's risky. That's too risky. That's. That's not a concentrated heat area. [00:20:45] Speaker B: Then I had somebody try to tell me that they cooked the turkey in the microwave. [00:20:50] Speaker A: Raw. No, raw. You need to go watch our episode about leftovers. [00:20:55] Speaker B: Raw. [00:20:56] Speaker A: I'm still on that. But you don't know. You don't cook. You don't cook an actual substance in the microwave. [00:21:01] Speaker B: Cooking a turkey? No, in the microwave thing was in there for like. I don't. The minute I walked through the door, sat, talked for a minute, walked outside with him. He was showing me stuff in the garage. Came back in here. The microwave had been on the whole time. [00:21:14] Speaker A: Did you leave? I. I probably would have left. I. I think even if it was family, I have to be like, I can't. I'm not doing that. [00:21:21] Speaker B: I had a roll, and it's a mashed potatoes. Because I'm not rude. Like, I can't. But when he was like, you want some turkey? I'm like, I don't think the turkey's done. I. I don't think it is. [00:21:32] Speaker A: I mean, I'm talking a lot of smack. I probably wouldn't have left, but I. It would have crossed my mind, or I would have left extra early and caught that other friend that said I had friends and been like, hey, dawg. [00:21:42] Speaker B: I'd have been looking for your friend with the meatloaf. That's what I'd have been looking. That's. That's where I should have went, is I shouldn't ate the one coming out of the microwave. I was looking because I should watch. I need some meatloaf right now. [00:21:51] Speaker A: At least I know that was cooked. [00:21:53] Speaker B: I mean, and what's crazy is, is that when they try to give. When he told it to me. When he told it to me, like, he was like, yeah, cooked it in the microwave. You know, he tried to convince me that the bacteria was killed. And anytime somebody tries to convince me the bacteria is killed, it's because they know that meat looks raw steel. That's the only thing. Oh, man. You know, bacteria dies at, like, 80 degrees. I'm like, I don't think it dies at 80. [00:22:19] Speaker A: No. Why do I picture you at that person's house and you're like, yo, Tweety, y' all got turngirl. Like, bro, all we got is meatloaf. You gonna be like, on my way. Was it? No. This is the answer. You gonna say, did he cook it in the microwave? And be like, hell. He'd be like, I'll be there in 10 minutes. [00:22:32] Speaker B: 10 minutes. [00:22:33] Speaker A: I'd be like, wow, it's that bad, bro. [00:22:36] Speaker B: 10 minutes. I'd have took pictures. I'd have took pictures of it on my way out, just so when I got to you, I could show you what it was. [00:22:40] Speaker A: Bro said he would have came with a meatloaf. Yep, yep. [00:22:45] Speaker B: Ketchup top and all. Ketchup. Yep. [00:22:48] Speaker A: No, man. But yeah, I gotta have those. I don't even know what my go to dessert is for Thanksgiving. I just like any type of dessert. I think I do. I think I'm a. I don't know. [00:23:00] Speaker B: Are you a pie during Thanksgiving? Cause I'm more of a pie during Thanksgiving and a cake during Christmas. [00:23:07] Speaker A: See, I think, I think holidays, I'm all pies. Because cakes. [00:23:12] Speaker B: Even for Christmas. [00:23:14] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:23:15] Speaker B: Cause I know, I know at Thanksgiving you gotta have that pumpkin pie. That pumpkin pie's gotta be there. It's gotta be there. [00:23:20] Speaker A: And I think for me, every holiday's gotta be a pie. Cause a cake, like, I'm gonna get it at somebody's birthday. I'm gonna get it for my birthday. Cause I'm a red velvet guy. Argue with me. Brownies, all of that. Like, cakes to me are for like birthday celebrations or like at a cookout. But to me, it is a birthday. [00:23:41] Speaker B: It's Christmas. [00:23:42] Speaker A: It's a bigger holiday. I don't know why. To me, a pie is special. Like, you just don't. At least for me, you don't need. [00:23:48] Speaker B: To pull out a pie. [00:23:49] Speaker A: Yeah, you just don't whip out a pie. [00:23:50] Speaker B: Yeah, you can. [00:23:51] Speaker A: I mean, can. Can you? [00:23:53] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, Yeah. [00:23:54] Speaker A: I don't. I don't hear about nobody that's like, hey, I made a pie. [00:23:57] Speaker B: That crumb top, Dutch apple. Oh, yeah. [00:23:59] Speaker A: Oh, oh. [00:24:01] Speaker B: Scoop of ice cream on top. [00:24:02] Speaker A: My wife's. My wife's grandma, she makes all of her pies. The dough from scratch. [00:24:08] Speaker B: My mom. My mom will throw together, like with cakes and with pies and stuff. My mama throw a pecan pie that. [00:24:14] Speaker A: I'll literally fight people for and see. I. I wish I liked so good because I. Because she would also make it a pecan. [00:24:23] Speaker B: You ever seen the little ones? Yeah, the little man. I pop them things like Skittles. Popping them like. Like I was talking about with the French fries. And you tap the bottom of it. [00:24:33] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:24:34] Speaker B: Let them pies be in the bag. [00:24:35] Speaker A: Those are dangerous. Whoever always brings those to a Thanksgiving, Christmas. [00:24:40] Speaker B: Oh, they going home with a clean plate. [00:24:41] Speaker A: They know what they did. Y. And they also know the people. It's for you and I. It's the. The people that claim they ate too much and can't have a slice of pie. [00:24:50] Speaker B: Yep. [00:24:50] Speaker A: You can have a little donut of a pie. You can't say no to that thing because it's one bite. When you get a slice of a pie, you're like, ah, that's a lot to tackle. [00:24:58] Speaker B: I know. And that's usually why people bring that one. [00:25:00] Speaker A: Yeah. But three or four little noses, you're like, ah, it wasn't that bad. [00:25:03] Speaker B: What's even great is that if you bring those little pies, say, you can leave that night with your plate. [00:25:08] Speaker A: Oh, oh. Hands down, that's. [00:25:10] Speaker B: Sometimes I. I do. I do watch some people, like when they have. When we have Thanksgiving and people bring food and stuff like that, and then it's that awkward. You know, where they bring. You know. You know what I'm about to say? They bring that macaroni pot. Right. Because it was their pot. They had to bring it over. So they put the pot, but there's still like half of it left. So then they do that whole thing. Hey, you want to keep any of this? [00:25:30] Speaker A: And it was like, oh, see, that's how. [00:25:33] Speaker B: Now you just put your lid on it and take it back with you. Like, you don't gotta empty it here and try to wash it here. [00:25:38] Speaker A: There are certain things that I can tell you ain't gonna make it based on the container it came in. [00:25:44] Speaker B: What's that? [00:25:44] Speaker A: Macaroni in a pot? Ain't happening to me. It's gotta. It's gotta be in the freaking. [00:25:52] Speaker B: In the foil or on that glass. [00:25:53] Speaker A: It's got to be talking about the glass. [00:25:55] Speaker B: Yes. [00:25:56] Speaker A: For the green bean casserole, you need the direct. [00:25:59] Speaker B: You know. You know, somebody showed up with a pot. You know, somebody even showed up with that little tinfoil. Oh. Squared with the. With the. [00:26:08] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm getting that first. I have yet to come across the tin foil can or the tinfoil container. And it has not slapped. [00:26:16] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:26:17] Speaker A: That. The glass casserole. And what's the other one? Oh, for a dessert. If it comes. If it comes on a plate, not in a container. If dessert came in the plate, that means you had to do the whole flippy trick or you took it out of that thing and put on something Nice. That's. Those are the items I look for. [00:26:38] Speaker B: You ever had somebody come over with, like, a veggie tray or like a little meat tray and be like. And then, like, nobody touched that thing at all because they got there. [00:26:48] Speaker A: Bring that. [00:26:49] Speaker B: I'm just saying. [00:26:49] Speaker A: I'm just saying. [00:26:50] Speaker B: They brought. They brought it right when we were about to have dinner. Like, we were, like, maybe 10 minutes from making our plates. And they show you. It's. Them folks show up, like, right before dinner, starting right before. We're all going to sit down, say a prayer, and then, like, when they come in, they come in with a veggie plate, right? And as they put their veggie plate or their little. The little meat tray, they're like, here it is. [00:27:09] Speaker A: You got to know your role. If you bring in that. I'm trying to help you. [00:27:13] Speaker B: Listen, you better show up early. [00:27:14] Speaker A: Oh, you got. You got to be one. You got to be the. Like, one of the first people there. [00:27:17] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:27:18] Speaker A: The vet, the veggie tray. 20 minutes. [00:27:21] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:27:22] Speaker A: Before the meal. I'm not eating anything. I barely want to drink water or whatever. I'm drinking because I'm trying to keep containment for the actual good stuff. Don't be. No, I hate those people. I had an uncle like that always showing up with a veggie tray five minutes before, and they being like, nobody want to know veggies. [00:27:39] Speaker B: Hell, no. [00:27:39] Speaker A: I didn't want it five minutes before. [00:27:41] Speaker B: You ever see them mad enough, they left with it. [00:27:43] Speaker A: Yes. [00:27:45] Speaker B: And they ain't going to eat Nobody want this? Fine. I take it home. [00:27:48] Speaker A: You shouldn't have showed up five minutes before the damn meal was about to sit. [00:27:51] Speaker B: I'm just. I'm like, this is. It's now. It's now decoration. Why it's decoration. [00:27:57] Speaker A: At that point, I need people to explain to me, why is the veggie tray person always the person that shows up last to. Why, like, for every occasion, I've never seen a veggie tray person. [00:28:07] Speaker B: You know why? [00:28:07] Speaker A: Because one of the first people, they. [00:28:09] Speaker B: Was running late already and didn't have nothing, and they stopped off. They stopped. Yeah. They was like, we got to bring something. You know, they got it. But I'm just saying, like, I do. [00:28:18] Speaker A: Get it, but you got it. You got to overthink it and be like, there's food there. I'm showing up with food. [00:28:23] Speaker B: You and I. You and I have a friend named Zachary who will show up to a place where we got food and walk in with. What? What did he walk in with? [00:28:31] Speaker A: Oh, Gosh, it wasn't just bread. It was a dog. [00:28:33] Speaker B: It was a. It was a. It was a baguette. It was a baguette out of the blue. And he was just like, nope, I got to come in with something. That same veggie tray peoples, at least. [00:28:42] Speaker A: With a baguette for Thanksgiving, that can be an alternate bread. [00:28:45] Speaker B: Yeah, you can chop it down. You can. You can. [00:28:46] Speaker A: You can't chop up no veggies. [00:28:48] Speaker B: You can sit it next to the road. The road. The road might talk shit to it. But I. [00:28:51] Speaker A: But you can't even use the damn ranch dressing on any Thanksgiving meal. I mean, you may maybe on your turkey, but I'm not really trying to mess with anything. [00:29:01] Speaker B: Nah, that's the gravy. I got that turkey gravy. [00:29:03] Speaker A: That's what I'm saying. What you gonna put the ranch on? Think about it. What you really like? If you saw the veggie train was like, I could use that ranch, what would it be? You really ain't got nothing. [00:29:15] Speaker B: There is nothing. [00:29:15] Speaker A: You got nothing. [00:29:16] Speaker B: Mostly everything else is soaked in gravy and butter. [00:29:19] Speaker A: You not. [00:29:20] Speaker B: And you don't mix butter and ranch. [00:29:22] Speaker A: No, you don't. You don't. You ain't gonna put it on your Mac. You ain't damn sure ain't putting on the stuff. [00:29:26] Speaker B: There ain't no wings. There ain't. There ain't nothing. [00:29:29] Speaker A: You can't. You ain't putting it on the turkey. [00:29:31] Speaker B: Somebody out there knows. [00:29:33] Speaker A: Turkeys. If you put it on a turkey.
