gonna hurt you. 532 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:05,920 I know, I just can't not say it now. 533 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,080 As we'd go to Total Wine in Delaware, 534 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,600 we would stock up for the holiday season, 535 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,240 Thanksgiving and Christmas. 536 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:16,000 I mean, one stop shop there, you get all your alcohol. 537 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,320 And then you'd go to the Christmas tree shop, 538 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:19,560 which is no longer. 539 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:20,600 Rest in peace. 540 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:21,600 All right, pay. 541 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,560 So now we just go to the liquor store 542 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,880 and that's our tradition. 543 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:30,640 But it's half the price as if you last minute shop 544 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:31,880 at the liquor store here. 545 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,200 Sorry if anybody owns a liquor store in Delco, 546 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,000 but it is half the price. 547 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,200 So if you're buying in bulk, make the trip to Delaware. 548 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,160 It's totally worth it. 549 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:42,920 I miss Christmas tree shops so much. 550 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:43,880 I know. 551 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,520 All of my nutcrackers are holding seashells 552 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:48,920 because I got them in July. 553 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,840 Cause you got them in July, but there's a new store. 554 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:52,680 It's not new. 555 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:53,680 We're just new to it. 556 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:54,720 It's called At Home. 557 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:55,560 We haven't been there yet. 558 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:56,840 It's at the Granite Run Mall 559 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:57,920 for those of you in the area. 560 00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:59,880 And it is bomb. 561 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:02,760 Oh God, there's so many. 562 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:07,760 There's so many behaviors that I just can't stand. 563 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,960 I texted Victoria after I left the store the other day. 564 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:12,920 This is how cool I am. 565 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,080 And I said, Victoria, I just went ham at that store. 566 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:17,080 I ignored that. 567 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,360 I don't know if you noticed that. 568 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:21,760 Okay. 569 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:26,080 So now we're at the weekend before Thanksgiving. 570 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,680 And this is when you want to start cleaning the house. 571 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:29,920 Like the weekend before. 572 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:31,640 So Thanksgiving's on

00:24:32,960 What a horrible person you are. 731 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:34,720 Carly is like, you have stuff in your teeth, 732 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:35,720 but I'm not gonna tell you about it. 733 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:36,560 No, you said perishable. 734 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:37,400 Oh my God. 735 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:38,480 And then you said crackers, 736 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,440 and then in my mind I was thinking, 737 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,360 oh, crackers are perishable? 738 00:24:42,360 --> 00:24:44,360 And then I was thinking, cheese. 739 00:24:44,360 --> 00:24:46,440 But then I was like, we bypassed that. 740 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,240 So then the fact that anyone's listening to us 741 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:50,600 is beyond me. 742 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,320 I just had like a five minute delay. 743 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,840 So buy all your items on that day. 744 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,080 Anyway, you've made it to Thanksgiving. 745 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:00,440 You just have to do the cooking. 746 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:04,240 You're prepared, your stress is definitely less. 747 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:05,320 You might still have it 748 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,120 because you have to do the cooking, 749 00:25:07,120 --> 00:25:10,040 but it's not as bad as if you waited until like the day 750 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,680 or the day before Wednesday to get ready for Thursday. 751 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,240 So there is a checklist. 752 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,920 If you are like what we've talked about, 753 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:19,920 you started a month ago, so good for you. 754 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,440 If not, there's still time. 755 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:22,280 There is. 756 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:23,120 There's still time. 757 00:25:23,120 --> 00:25:28,120 You're not a hopeless cause yet. 758 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:29,520 We are. 759 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,040 We are, but you are not. 760 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,680 So even if you just start preparing today, 761 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,480 you'll be okay, or you'll be better than you were 762 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,200 if you started Thursday morning. 763 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:39,240 Yeah. 764 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:40,080 Yeah. 765 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:41,600 Happy Thanksgiving. 766 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,280 All right, now for the fun stuff. 767 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:48,000 Right, we got the checklist off. 768 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:52,200 But now the things you're not supposed to talk about 769 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:56,240 or should just avoid at all costs with your family, 770 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,840 extended family, immediate family, friends, 771 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,680 whoever is invited to your holiday meal. 772 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,400 I love when people are invited to our holiday meal. 773 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:11,920 I get well. 774 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,320 All right. 775 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,880 So if you gossip basically, 776 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,040 if there's family gossip, if someone had a fight, 777 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,520 if something has come out that everybody 778 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:22,960 has low key found out about, 779 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:24,640 or maybe you're the only one that found out about it 780 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:26,680 and you wanna talk about it, don't. 781 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:27,520 Don't. 782 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:28,360 Just don't. 783 00:26:28,360 --> 00:26:29,200 Don't. 784 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:30,040 It's not worth it. 785 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,120 What you think of the current president, 786 00:26:34,120 --> 00:26:38,440 keep politics out of Thanksgiving, especially this year. 787 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:39,760 If you've never done it before 788 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:41,640 and your family's been okay with talking politics, 789 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:42,560 just avoid it this year. 790 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:43,720 Just don't do it. 791 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,480 There's nothing else to be said about it. 792 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,160 Same goes for religion. 793 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,600 If you're starting something new, 794 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,360 if you think someone else is starting a new religion 795 00:26:56,360 --> 00:27:00,040 or an atheist or whatever, 796 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:04,360 I just think it's not the time, right? 797 00:27:04,360 --> 00:27:06,520 Because what comes from that is like debating 798 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:08,480 and like someone wanting you to see their opinion 799 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:10,120 or their belief. 800 00:27:10,120 --> 00:27:12,680 And then it's a debate on belief systems. 801 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,840 But now you've turned this like nice meal 802 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,960 of just catching up with people and watching football 803 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,160 or watching the parade and talking about random fun thing. 804 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,280 Now it's become this like, 805 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,600 I have to land on my stance and I, 806 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:27,920 you need to hear me and all that stuff. 807 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,360 I need to say my piece, 808 00:27:29,360 --> 00:27:32,040 which is that goes along with the next one, 809 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,920 which is like talking about politics and gun control 810 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,200 and your thoughts on this and what are your thoughts? 811 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,120 Well, it's all nice in theory 812 00:27:39,120 --> 00:27:41,200 to get people's different opinions. 813 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:44,360 It never ends well with alcohol, 814 00:27:44,360 --> 00:27:47,080 a full belly and different opinions. 815 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,560 Just stay away from it. 816 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:50,880 And even if you're like, 817 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,840 well, I think people should discuss stuff like gun control 818 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,240 and different things like that, not the time. 819 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,480 It's, hey, if your family are like debaters 820 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,640 and that's what you enjoy, we're not talking to you. 821 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,240 Yeah, but if you know that there's a divide 822 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:10,960 or could be some sort of difference in opinion and belief, 823 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,080 which is completely allowed, 824 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:16,000 why bring up the opportunity 825 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,440 to not know how to agree to disagree? 826 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:19,280 Right. 827 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:20,760 And I think on a lot of these things, 828 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,560 it's very hard to agree to disagree. 829 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,880 I think the other person just wants, 830 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,640 like what you said, to get their opinion said 831 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,480 and not really listen. 832 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:32,720 I don't think Thanksgiving or Christmas 833 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:34,240 is a time when people are listening. 834 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,400 I think it's more of like, stakes are high. 835 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,520 Yes, that's a better way to say it. 836 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:39,840 Ooh. 837 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,840 This one's good, I'm glad it landed on me. 838 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:42,680 Hmm. 839 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:47,320 Don't talk about all your children's amazing accomplishments. 840 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,320 I mean, how the years been going 841 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,440 and how great your freaking kids are. 842 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:52,640 I'm kidding, I love all of you. 843 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:53,640 I love all your children. 844 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:57,400 I think they're fascinating, but I don't know. 845 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,640 Yeah, look, I'm an advocate for that as well. 846 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:02,560 I get it. 847 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,240 And a lot of people's families, 848 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,040 they don't see each other often, ours does. 849 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,000 So technically or... 850 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:09,840 We have nothing to talk about. 851 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:10,680 We have nothing to talk about. 852 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,040 Like you saw my kid yesterday, 853 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:14,160 they were amazing yesterday, 854 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:15,280 they're just as amazing today. 855 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:16,120 You don't need to talk about it. 856 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:17,040 Yeah. 857 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:18,680 But they're, you know, it's... 858 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,560 We talked about it once and someone came up to me, 859 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:21,640 Maggie, what's up Maggie? 860 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:23,760 And she was like, Victoria, 861 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:25,440 I will go out with you happily 862 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:26,680 because you said you don't go out 863 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:27,800 and you don't have anybody to go out with. 864 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:28,640 So I will go out with you. 865 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:30,120 Also, I won't talk about my kids. 866 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,240 And I was like, well, like, Maggie, you listen. 867 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:34,080 You're amazing. 868 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:35,720 I don't, I go out with Victoria and I'm like, 869 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,560 oh my God, guess what Dean said today? 870 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:38,560 Yeah, but it's so funny. 871 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,600 Oh, ooh. 872 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:46,360 I am a big advocate for this one. 873 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:47,920 Don't talk about weight. 874 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,200 Don't talk about weight. 875 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:52,800 We specifically don't like it 876 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:54,520 because it reminds us of work. 877 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:55,960 We don't like talk about work, 878 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:57,680 just like at parties when people come up 879 00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:58,800 and they're like, what's on your plate? 880 00:29:58,800 --> 00:29:59,800 What are you eating? 881 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:02,400 It's like one of the biggest things you don't wanna say 882 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,320 just cause we're like, oh, we're eating today. 883 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:05,920 Like we're eating like a normal person. 884 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:06,760 It's Thanksgiving. 885 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:07,600 Get over yourself. 886 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:08,720 Just don't talk about weight. 887 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,840 Like, oh, I ate so much, I'm gonna pay for that tomorrow. 888 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:11,920 No, just enjoy it. 889 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:13,080 It's a holiday. 890 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:14,280 Enjoy what you're eating. 891 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:15,520 Don't talk about your weight, 892 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:16,880 how much you wanna lose, 893 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:18,760 how much you've gained this year. 894 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:20,840 It avoided at all costs. 895 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:22,360 Yeah, agreed. 896 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:25,640 And then personal things. 897 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:29,360 Which sounds really broad 898 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,400 and I'm gonna attach two of them together. 899 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,120 But like, if you have a cousin or a sibling 900 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:37,560 or an uncle that's not married or paired up 901 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,760 or within a relationship for any reason, 902 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,960 you don't need to know or maybe you do know, 903 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:44,800 don't talk about it. 904 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:46,800 Yeah, don't talk about it. 905 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:48,640 And this is kind of for an older generation 906 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,240 that's like, why aren't you married? 907 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:51,600 I'm, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh. 908 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:56,320 Don't, the personal stuff with that is not the way to go. 909 00:30:56,320 --> 00:31:01,320 And that is attached to also if someone is childless. 910 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,760 Yes, and there are many, many reasons why 911 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,160 the accomplishments of your children 912 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,600 do not match somebody else's story. 913 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,320 So if there's a reason that this person doesn't have kids 914 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,600 in their life and they want it or maybe they don't, 915 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,400 whatever, don't bring it up and ask the questions. 916 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,080 Like, those deep personal questions 917 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,400 is probably not the time in between 918 00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:26,640 when you're like, hey, pass the sweet potatoes. 919 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:30,640 Right, and I think what might not be so personal to you 920 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,680 could be very personal to somebody else, 921 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:33,880 but you don't know that. 922 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,760 So just don't go there. 923 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,840 So basically you can talk about the weather at Thanksgiving 924 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:40,560 and you'll be fine. 925 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:41,880 Just talk about the weather. 926 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:45,000 Better be a nice day. 927 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:46,720 Or musicals if you're in our family 928 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:48,560 because that's what we tend to do. 929 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,520 What's the latest Broadway show you've seen? 930 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,200 Oh, we'll be all singing Wicked on Thanksgiving. 931 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:54,040 It's pretty sure. 932 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:56,880 Parenting advice, 933 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,760 because there's lots of kids running around at Thanksgiving. 934 00:31:58,760 --> 00:31:59,600 Oh, yeah. 935 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:03,120 Your family member might parent differently than you 936 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,840 or if you are one of those childless people 937 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:06,720 and don't have kids, 938 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,360 but you think somebody should be parenting a certain way 939 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,200 because you wouldn't do it that way. 940 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:15,680 Nobody is gonna learn lessons about being a parent 941 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:17,680 on Thanksgiving at a holiday event. 942 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,280 And if you're annoyed by a child's behavior 943 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,960 or a parent's reaction to that, 944 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:24,800 keep it to yourself. 945 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:25,640 Just keep it to yourself. 946 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,720 What's that old school? 947 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:28,560 It's from old

00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:33,840 School of Rock. 953 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:34,680 You don't know anything. 954 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:35,600 Which is really, I think a white snake song. 955 00:32:35,600

00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:42,960 Just step off. 960 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:44,160 And the last one, 961 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,960 do not talk to the people next to you and or say out loud 962 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:51,040 how much somebody else in your family is eating. 963 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:51,880 Ugh. 964 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,360 Like they're going for how many helpings of whatever. 965 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:55,480 They're going for seconds. 966 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,520 They're eating more of this dish. 967 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:00,440 Then another dish. 968 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:03,400 Even if you're noticing it, don't say it. 969 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:04,240 Yeah. 970 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,440 And I'm saying this one because it's happened and it
