0:01
Speaker 1: Then when I woke up this morning, I was feeling
0:02
Speaker 1: pretty dangerous or on a Cincinnati team. It's my corpett.
0:07
Speaker 1: They are when we thought they were, and we got
0:11
Speaker 1: you play to win the gate. They want you to
0:14
Speaker 1: cook the dinner. At least they ought to let your
0:16
Speaker 1: shot for some of the grocery. And on the way up,
0:18
Speaker 1: we're gonna buy a kneecap all getting me playoffs. I'm
0:21
Speaker 1: just here so I won't get fine? How could he
0:23
Speaker 1: not be a romantic about football? After Hello, Welcome to
0:27
Speaker 1: the Bench with Vanetta podcast. Guys, is Thankgiving week. I
0:34
Speaker 1: am so excited to just eat like a maniac andnot
0:39
Speaker 1: treat my body very well. And we got football. We
0:43
Speaker 1: got some good games on Thanksgiving. Usually we're like, oh
0:47
Speaker 1: why do we have to watch? This year came into it.
0:52
Speaker 1: I have got some hot takes, So Grever, can you
0:54
Speaker 1: enter the chat. I've got some hot takes about Thanksgiving.
0:58
Speaker 1: Number one. Okay, I'm Canadian, as we all know, my
1:02
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving it in October. And I know that you guys
1:05
Speaker 1: have to have your Thanksgiving around November because like that's
1:07
Speaker 1: when you found the country or whatever. Thanksgiving about in
1:10
Speaker 1: October is prime Thanksgiving time, baby, And I'm gonna give
1:15
Speaker 1: you a couple of reasons why. Number one, it is
1:18
Speaker 1: peak fall, November winter. Sorry, it's winter time, okay. Te
1:23
Speaker 1: October sap, its sap. It's October is peak fall. We
1:29
Speaker 1: are seeing the autumnal vibes rolling, we are getting ready
1:33
Speaker 1: for Halloween. My Thanksgiving is like the first week of October.
1:39
Speaker 1: It is far enough away from Christmas, which is also
1:43
Speaker 1: another time that you how's turkey, which we will get
1:47
Speaker 1: to is terrible. There's enough time in between there that
1:51
Speaker 1: I can have turkey on Thanksgiving and then rolling out
1:53
Speaker 1: again for Christmas. There's enough space there. It doesn't make
1:57
Speaker 1: any sense that it's in November. Cancel it moved to October.
2:00
Speaker 1: How do you feel about that? I see where you're
2:02
Speaker 1: coming from. I will say, turkey on Christmas is not
2:06
Speaker 1: what my family has ever done. We're here cam or
2:10
Speaker 1: roast beef or both, which is way more delicious than turkey.
2:15
Speaker 1: So but I do I do understand what you're saying,
2:17
Speaker 1: because like two of the biggest holidays for family gathering
2:21
Speaker 1: basically are Thanksgiving Christmas, and they're like three weeks apart
2:24
Speaker 1: or something four weeks apart. It's pretty close. So I
2:27
Speaker 1: don't hate where you're coming from. It just feels anti tradition.
2:32
Speaker 1: Well call me crazy, but maybe it's fun to throw
2:35
Speaker 1: a tradition out the window every so often. Also, we
2:38
Speaker 1: could be this is what really, this is what kicked
2:41
Speaker 1: this whole thing off. I'm not allowed to put up
2:43
Speaker 1: a Christmas tree yet? Since when I keep on going
2:47
Speaker 1: to all of these websites, Where can I buy a
2:48
Speaker 1: Christmas tree in Los Angeles right now? I was up
2:52
Speaker 1: last week, by the way, because I wanted to be
2:54
Speaker 1: that early. I can't even get one until Friday. I
2:56
Speaker 1: can't even get one until the day after Thanksgiving. I'm
3:00
Speaker 1: my house could be a winter wonderland right now, but no,
3:02
Speaker 1: we have to wait for Thanksgiving to be over. Can
3:05
Speaker 1: I ask you something? Perhaps too early? We'll do this
3:08
Speaker 1: conversation again in a month. Are you a fake tree
3:10
Speaker 1: person or a real tree person? Guys, there's no, there's
3:14
Speaker 1: really there's a very wrong answer to this question, and
3:17
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you the right answer, and it is
3:19
Speaker 1: a real tree. I know that they're pricing and not
3:21
Speaker 1: they're not for everybody because they're literally the price of
3:24
Speaker 1: Christmas trees is stupid. Like I went last year. I
3:28
Speaker 1: think I got like a medium sized tree and it
3:29
Speaker 1: was like almost two dollars, and I was like, oh,
3:31
Speaker 1: what am I doing with my life? But so I
3:34
Speaker 1: understand it's not for everybody, but there is something. There
3:37
Speaker 1: is something that hits you right in the face when
3:39
Speaker 1: you walk into your front door and you smell fresh
3:43
Speaker 1: Christmas tree. Also, I feel like the plastic ones can
3:47
Speaker 1: like catch on fire in your house, can burn and
3:49
Speaker 1: you could die. Well that's what I feel like. That's true.
3:52
Speaker 1: I feel like that's true of trees. Also they are trees.
3:56
Speaker 1: But yeah, no, you're right. Um, okay, guys, we You've
4:00
Speaker 1: got a lot to get to in the show speaking
4:02
Speaker 1: of um just traditions and things we are thankful for.
4:07
Speaker 1: Kyle Brandt is on the show and we are doing
4:10
Speaker 1: stay tuned for this. We are doing start bench cut
4:15
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving food and we are not being nice about it.
4:18
Speaker 1: I am taking prisoners, okay, I Unfortunately, I know you
4:23
Speaker 1: have thoughts on this. So this is how I want
4:26
Speaker 1: to kick things off. We got to talk about the jets.
4:28
Speaker 1: I know that you're fired up about it. Let me
4:30
Speaker 1: tell you something. On Game Debut. We record these shows
4:34
Speaker 1: on Friday at the end of each show we do
4:36
Speaker 1: a write this down segment. It's like something that we're
4:38
Speaker 1: feeling really good about. Maybe it's like a fun prop
4:40
Speaker 1: or like something that just a prediction of what might
4:43
Speaker 1: happen on Sunday. I said Zach Wilson zero picks after
4:49
Speaker 1: throwing three the last time that they played the Patriots.
4:52
Speaker 1: I don't know how I hit this because he was
4:55
Speaker 1: he was begging for an interception the entire game. Maybe
4:59
Speaker 1: I want to know what your thoughts are on the Jets.
5:01
Speaker 1: What is this team? What is going on with their quarterback?
5:04
Speaker 1: Are you as as fired up as I am? Yeah?
5:07
Speaker 1: And I'm trying now because we've been at this for
5:09
Speaker 1: almost twenty four hours of just screaming and pulling her
5:11
Speaker 1: hair out over Zack Wilson. So I'm trying to find
5:13
Speaker 1: some sort of silver lining or maybe a little levity,
5:17
Speaker 1: and I think I've found it. I like the stage
5:18
Speaker 1: where right now, because we're at the stage where he
5:21
Speaker 1: has multiple teammates on defense who after the game on
5:25
Speaker 1: their accounts on Twitter liked tweets that were disparaging of
5:29
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson and how he handed himself. So, yeah, two
5:31
Speaker 1: of them, and now they're both saying no, no, no, no,
5:34
Speaker 1: I accidentally liked it. I didn't mean to. I accidentally
5:38
Speaker 1: like tweets all the time, and I'm calling so much
5:40
Speaker 1: bus on that Vanetta. Do people accidentally like tweets? I don't.
5:46
Speaker 1: It has happened to me before, but this is just
5:49
Speaker 1: too much. It's just I don't know you're you're, you're.
5:52
Speaker 1: I got that thumbs if I'm scrolling, sometimes it just
5:55
Speaker 1: hits the heart button. I've accidentally followed people before, and
5:58
Speaker 1: then I'll get messages being like, oh my god, do
6:01
Speaker 1: you want to day? Do you want? Do you want
6:03
Speaker 1: to go out with me? Like? What do this mean?
6:04
Speaker 1: And I was like, I'm so sorry. This was a
6:06
Speaker 1: total accident. I can see how that's happened before, but
6:10
Speaker 1: I am also calling BS on this. It is ridiculous.
6:12
Speaker 1: Wasn't it the defensive coordinator that was like liking these tweets? Yeah,
6:16
Speaker 1: it was a lot of people, And like, I just
6:19
Speaker 1: for the sake of being thorough when I was thinking
6:22
Speaker 1: about this, I went to my timeline and I just
6:23
Speaker 1: started pulling up random tweets, the Onion, Scott handsOn whatever.
6:27
Speaker 1: When you pressed like, the whole thing goes red and
6:30
Speaker 1: an animates and there's this little star burst and it's
6:33
Speaker 1: it's very obvious that you liked it. Also, there's a
6:36
Speaker 1: new splash here. If you hit it again, you unlike it.
6:40
Speaker 1: So I'm just not here for the accident of liking tweets.
6:43
Speaker 1: You may have fat thumbs, Banetta, but we're talking about
6:46
Speaker 1: elite athletes here with manual dexterity that should be better
6:49
Speaker 1: than this. The accident of liking tweets, I think is bs.
6:52
Speaker 1: I think the case has been cracked. I think that
6:54
Speaker 1: we're on them. Also, I feel like with me, I'm
6:56
Speaker 1: always I'm liking, I'm scrolling, I'm doing something, I'm thinking
6:59
Speaker 1: about the TikTok. I'm about to make my brains a mess. Okay,
7:02
Speaker 1: but no excuse for these for these athletes, um so,
7:06
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson an absolute mess. I feel like beginning of
7:08
Speaker 1: the season we all heard about there was some specific
7:12
Speaker 1: Zac Wilson storylines that brought the team together. That's just
7:16
Speaker 1: absolutely thrown to the wind. They are a mess. Um
7:19
Speaker 1: some more some more fun storylines. You Okay, you need
7:22
Speaker 1: to crack the code on this. Josh Allen comes on
7:24
Speaker 1: your podcast every single week. Apparently there was a man
7:28
Speaker 1: named Squirrel that helped him get out of the snow
7:31
Speaker 1: this week, will you please Squirrel coming over for Thanksgiving dinner?
7:35
Speaker 1: Like these are the kinds of questions that we need
7:37
Speaker 1: from you. Imagine this the guy, this is some sort
7:40
Speaker 1: of like Western New York Santa Claus who helps people
7:44
Speaker 1: out of their driveways. Rachel. His name isn't just Squirrel,
7:47
Speaker 1: his name is Squirrel Winter. What how is that possible?
7:51
Speaker 1: It's like that is that is going to be a
7:53
Speaker 1: Hallmark movie, like Squirrel Winter Saves Christmas? And I like
7:57
Speaker 1: I get about I get about twenty sometimes twenty five
8:01
Speaker 1: minutes with Josh every week, and I have like nineteen
8:04
Speaker 1: minutes of questions about Squirrel Winter and the rest of
8:06
Speaker 1: the stuff. I don't really care about the Browns, I
8:09
Speaker 1: don't care about the lions. I just want to talk
8:12
Speaker 1: about Squirrel Winter. And this magical man should be a
8:14
Speaker 1: national celebrity. He absolutely should be. And I really feel
8:18
Speaker 1: like this. Listen, I for one, I don't know how
8:20
Speaker 1: you feel about this, kab We were just talking about
8:22
Speaker 1: the cold weather and how you don't have snow. I'm
8:25
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of looking the visualization of the snow,
8:30
Speaker 1: and I get it. They couldn't play in Buffalo. They
8:33
Speaker 1: had to go to Detroit because it was too bad.
8:35
Speaker 1: But could you imagine this game actually staying in Buffalo?
8:42
Speaker 1: I feel like it is. What is it when the
8:44
Speaker 1: groundhog comes out of the ground and he looks a
8:46
Speaker 1: certain way and it's like the start of the new year.
8:48
Speaker 1: I don't know how these things work. He sees the
8:50
Speaker 1: shadow and then you get like three more weeks of
8:53
Speaker 1: winter or something like that. The first Snow game is
8:58
Speaker 1: just like like the first major snow game. I'm not
9:00
Speaker 1: talking flurries here and there, the first major snow game,
9:04
Speaker 1: which I believe this is what this would have been,
9:06
Speaker 1: just kicking kicking off Thanksgiving, kicking off Christmas. Sign me
9:11
Speaker 1: the heck up? Okay uh? Speaking of speaking of Thanksgiving,
9:15
Speaker 1: my friend your days away? Um, I was actually had
9:18
Speaker 1: a friend's giving the other day and we did the
9:20
Speaker 1: boring ass like I'm thankful for these like these friends
9:24
Speaker 1: that I just met, and like, oh my god, I
9:26
Speaker 1: hate that. I hate that. What I have been witnessing
9:30
Speaker 1: is people doing their unthankful lists at the dinner table,
9:36
Speaker 1: which I highly recommend. So we're going to do that
9:38
Speaker 1: right now. I want to know a storyline that you're
9:40
Speaker 1: thankful for. I've got one and then one that you
9:43
Speaker 1: are unthankful for. At this point in time, going into
9:47
Speaker 1: while or wherever we're at, I feel like we might
9:50
Speaker 1: have some connective tissue here because I know you and
9:54
Speaker 1: I know some of the things that you're into. I'm
9:56
Speaker 1: just gonna say I am very, very very thankful for
9:59
Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions. Love three game win streak, and not
10:04
Speaker 1: only that in a vacuum. Okay, they've won three in
10:06
Speaker 1: a row. They hooked us the bleep up this week
10:10
Speaker 1: because now they matter and they're actually playing a game
10:14
Speaker 1: where like Lions Bills, there's some meat on that bone,
10:17
Speaker 1: Like that is not a slam dunk win for the Bills,
10:20
Speaker 1: and we have to endure the yearly monologues about it's
10:24
Speaker 1: time to end the tradition of the Lions playing on Thanksgiving.
10:26
Speaker 1: They always suck. It's always a letdown. They don't suck.
10:29
Speaker 1: They're one of the hottest teams in the NFC right now,
10:31
Speaker 1: so I'm thrilled about it for them, but also for us.
10:35
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams is so much fun. Like there's just so
10:38
Speaker 1: many parts of that team that you that you want
10:42
Speaker 1: to root for like there's the we'll get into it,
10:44
Speaker 1: but like the Chiefs and the Patriots, like they're always
10:46
Speaker 1: going to be good, but like, I'm so tired of
10:48
Speaker 1: those storylines. Dan Campbell his consistent use of the word
10:52
Speaker 1: man and dude and come on, like I'm getting behind that.
10:56
Speaker 1: You know what I'm thankful for. I am so thankful.
11:00
Speaker 1: Or Taylor Heineke and this crazy break of the commanders
11:04
Speaker 1: on It's tough sometimes to get behind the commanders. But
11:08
Speaker 1: this man, I don't know if you've seen this kV,
11:10
Speaker 1: but he has been purchasing sneakers, a new pair of
11:14
Speaker 1: Jordan's in the opponent's colors after every single win. So
11:19
Speaker 1: we got a blue and white for the Colts win,
11:22
Speaker 1: he got some some green and yellows for the Packers win,
11:25
Speaker 1: a white and green was hit and different. And then
11:28
Speaker 1: last night after they beat the Texans, he posted on
11:30
Speaker 1: his Instagram story the brand new pair of blue sneakers
11:33
Speaker 1: that you purchased. This is this is a level of
11:36
Speaker 1: of confidence that I'm I'm really digging. I am I'm
11:41
Speaker 1: quiet the quiet winds with the quarterbacks. He's got the
11:47
Speaker 1: not doesn't make a ton of money, not super talented,
11:51
Speaker 1: buys Jordan's. His last name sounds a lot like a
11:54
Speaker 1: beer like. There's just so many things that people must
11:56
Speaker 1: like about him, and I'm way into all of him,
11:58
Speaker 1: and now that he's the guy moving forward and they've
12:00
Speaker 1: won four out of five and I'm not even totally
12:03
Speaker 1: sure how. I just every single week you tune in
12:05
Speaker 1: and Heineke is winning another game to get another pair
12:07
Speaker 1: of Jordan's. I don't know if you saw this. He
12:09
Speaker 1: was sponsored by bud Light, which is like, Heineken, what
12:12
Speaker 1: are we doing here? He was sponsored by bud Light,
12:16
Speaker 1: and then I think after a big win, he brought
12:19
Speaker 1: bush Light onto the plane to like celebrate, like it
12:22
Speaker 1: was a big thing. He was like carrying it out,
12:24
Speaker 1: and then bud Light dropped him. So I don't even
12:26
Speaker 1: think he has a beer sponsor now. But Heineken has
12:30
Speaker 1: just totally get in there. Where's the head of your marketing, Heineken,
12:35
Speaker 1: I don't know what is happening. Are you too busy
12:36
Speaker 1: covering soccer? Forget about it? Heineke is okay? And what
12:40
Speaker 1: are you unthankful for this this season? Right now? I'm
12:45
Speaker 1: not on speaking terms with the Minnesota Vikings right now.
12:48
Speaker 1: I can't look at him. I can't talk to him.
12:50
Speaker 1: Get up to your room, shut the door, no screens,
12:52
Speaker 1: no phones, don't come out here. I don't want to
12:55
Speaker 1: talk to you until the playoffs. And of course, like
12:58
Speaker 1: any kid who gets grounded, they try to make up
13:01
Speaker 1: for it like writing you a letter or writing how
13:03
Speaker 1: they are sorry for what they did. We have to
13:05
Speaker 1: watch the Vikings in a few days against the Patriots.
13:08
Speaker 1: I don't care what that. I don't care if they
13:09
Speaker 1: win that game by two hundred points. I'm not talking
13:12
Speaker 1: to the Vikings until the playoffs. And I'm not mad
13:14
Speaker 1: at them, Rachel, I'm so disappointed in them, and that
13:17
Speaker 1: for three embarrassment. We'll see you in January. Until then,
13:20
Speaker 1: don't even look at me. To the to the Cowboys,
13:22
Speaker 1: of all people, they were my lost on Sunday, the Vikings,
13:25
Speaker 1: I was going all the way. I saw everyone. It's
13:27
Speaker 1: the catch that was heard around the world. Literally, we
13:29
Speaker 1: were in Germany. We heard people screaming in the streets
13:31
Speaker 1: for it. Of course you're gonna back that team. And
13:33
Speaker 1: then Cowboys fans are just the most obnoxious people in
13:36
Speaker 1: my mentions right now. For my ungratefulness, it just happened
13:41
Speaker 1: last night I'm just so tired of the Chiefs being good.
13:44
Speaker 1: I'm just so tired of it. Patrick Moms, Travis Kelsey,
13:50
Speaker 1: greatest tight end of all time. We know, we know,
13:52
Speaker 1: we want somebody else in the mix. I came in
13:55
Speaker 1: to this season, Kabe choosing the Chargers. They were going
13:58
Speaker 1: to be the new love of my life. I was
14:00
Speaker 1: ready to get the gear. I was ready to be
14:02
Speaker 1: in the blue and gold, the right next door to work,
14:04
Speaker 1: and so if I stadium, I was all in. That
14:06
Speaker 1: is not worked out the Chiefs. I'm just tired of it.
14:08
Speaker 1: I'm ungrateful. I am ungrateful for the Chiefs. I wanted
14:11
Speaker 1: to be done. Um okay, finally, Kab, before we let
14:14
Speaker 1: you go start bench cut Thanksgiving food. I've got some
14:19
Speaker 1: hot takes. Do you want me to go first or
14:20
Speaker 1: do you want to go first? No, I want to
14:22
Speaker 1: react to yours. So you go first. Okay, starting in
14:26
Speaker 1: my lineup, my number one star, my captain of the team.
14:31
Speaker 1: We don't even have I don't even think we have
14:33
Speaker 1: this for Canadian Thanksgiving green bean casserole. It's something that's
14:37
Speaker 1: new in my life. It's love. It's something that I've
14:40
Speaker 1: experienced over the past few years. I'm all in. I
14:43
Speaker 1: am starting green bean casserole. What are you going with?
14:46
Speaker 1: Are you you? You go those little crunchy onion things
14:49
Speaker 1: on top, right, of course, I am boxing. Probably doesn't
14:52
Speaker 1: probably stale as hell, Throw him on top, put him
14:55
Speaker 1: in the oven. No one's gonna know the difference. Yeah,
14:57
Speaker 1: the green beans, to me, are just a conduit to
14:59
Speaker 1: get to those che onion things. That's all that I
15:01
Speaker 1: want my start. It looks I'm gonna just say between us, Rachel,
15:06
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take alcohol out because you said foods and
15:10
Speaker 1: alcohol is not technically of food. So listen. I know
15:13
Speaker 1: that this is a polarizing side. My start is cranberries.
15:16
Speaker 1: I'm in. I want them. I like them. I eat
15:19
Speaker 1: exactly four spoonfuls banberries every single year. Four only I'm Thanksgiving,
15:25
Speaker 1: and that's it. It's something you never have any other
15:28
Speaker 1: time of the year. But it tastes like Thanksgiving to me,
15:30
Speaker 1: and I'm in. I'm starting it. Are you okay with
15:33
Speaker 1: the canned version that comes out like dog food with
15:36
Speaker 1: the ridges in the side and everything, I'm okay with it.
15:38
Speaker 1: I prefer like the fancier one with the actual berries,
15:41
Speaker 1: but I'll eat the canny, don't. I'm having cranberries. You
15:43
Speaker 1: can't keep me from it. There is no next day
15:47
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving left over sandwich unless you put cranberry sauce, cranberry
15:51
Speaker 1: something on it. Okay, I am benching controversial. I'm benching turkey.
15:56
Speaker 1: Turkey is not good. Turkey makes you feel terrible. It's
16:00
Speaker 1: got tripped the fan or whatever the hell it's called.
16:03
Speaker 1: It makes you really tired. I want to take a nap.
16:05
Speaker 1: It doesn't taste good most of the time. It's dry,
16:09
Speaker 1: and I'm not interested. It takes twenty five hours to
16:11
Speaker 1: freaking cook. I'm out, all right. This is a movement
16:15
Speaker 1: and I'm waving the flag for it. I was also
16:17
Speaker 1: going to bench turkey, and I'm doing it. Something happened
16:20
Speaker 1: a hundred years ago when the culinary world was completely different,
16:23
Speaker 1: before we had the Food Network and before we had Instagram,
16:25
Speaker 1: and it was like, you just make a turkey and
16:27
Speaker 1: you slab it with gravy, and we think this is
16:29
Speaker 1: what good food tastes like. It tastes like crap. It
16:32
Speaker 1: is the poor man's chicken, It's the homeless man's ham.
16:35
Speaker 1: And I don't serve turkey my Thanksgiving anymore. I don't
16:37
Speaker 1: care if it's blasphemous or anti American. I want to
16:40
Speaker 1: living the taste good and we go with we will
16:42
Speaker 1: do a big gass ham on Thanksgiving and then we'll
16:45
Speaker 1: run it back for Christmas. So I'm out on the
16:47
Speaker 1: turkey out. I love this KB Okay, we're mind. I
16:51
Speaker 1: think I think this last one might be my most controversial,
16:54
Speaker 1: though I feel some people might be out. I am
16:57
Speaker 1: cutting a certain kind of stuffing, and that is stovetop stuffing.
17:02
Speaker 1: I'm cutting the hell out of stovetop stuffing. It's salty,
17:07
Speaker 1: it's gnarly. It literally looks like mush, it looks like
17:12
Speaker 1: garbage on the table. I know that, like maybe the
17:16
Speaker 1: stuffing that goes inside of the turkey could like give
17:18
Speaker 1: you salmonella. Who cares, I'm risking it. That's the tasty one.
17:22
Speaker 1: That's the one that I want. Stovetop stuffing can take
17:26
Speaker 1: a hike so that you like the stuff that they
17:29
Speaker 1: actually stuff up into the orifice of the turkey and
17:34
Speaker 1: it gets all soggy, soggy with delicious juices. You know
17:39
Speaker 1: why the turkey is so dry because the stuffing is
17:42
Speaker 1: draining out all of the deliciousness into these like weird
17:47
Speaker 1: pieces of gnarly bread. That's what I want. Baby throws
17:50
Speaker 1: some onions in there. Who we are the turkey is
17:53
Speaker 1: kind of a martyr for the stuffing. Like the turkey
17:55
Speaker 1: walks of the stuffing, can run and it, it bequeaths
17:58
Speaker 1: it all of its fiver, and that's what happens to it.
18:01
Speaker 1: So I'm this is not something I'm I'm I'm not
18:04
Speaker 1: benching it. I'm cutting it. It's straight up not on
18:06
Speaker 1: the team anymore. So I find that depending on where
18:10
Speaker 1: you are from in the country, especially you know down
18:13
Speaker 1: in in here. I know you you you Canadian, been
18:16
Speaker 1: in the States, Like I've had some weird crap when
18:19
Speaker 1: I visited other people's parts of the country. And our
18:22
Speaker 1: weird thing in our family that I'm cutting that I've
18:24
Speaker 1: always hated. Then you're gonna learn something, I think, Rachel,
18:28
Speaker 1: we used to have growing up. We used to have
18:29
Speaker 1: ruda bega and that was our thing. And my mom
18:33
Speaker 1: would make like mashed ruda bega and it's like a starch,
18:36
Speaker 1: kind of like a turnip, and it's just gross and nasty,
18:40
Speaker 1: and it's one of those things that no one ever
18:42
Speaker 1: likes it, no one ever eats it. But we make
18:44
Speaker 1: it every year, so it's just as always invited back
18:47
Speaker 1: to the party. So I would like to cut rude bega.
18:50
Speaker 1: I literally can't even picture what a route bega looks
18:54
Speaker 1: like right now. I don't even think I've ever had one.
18:56
Speaker 1: We we used to do squash. We used to do
18:59
Speaker 1: like like is it it's turned up and squashed the
19:01
Speaker 1: same thing it used to be, orning like next to
19:03
Speaker 1: the mashed potatoes that slaps I'm keeping that. Okay, you're
19:07
Speaker 1: cutting some of the squash. They put like maple syrup
19:11
Speaker 1: and marshmallows on it and that like that place. But
19:13
Speaker 1: the root of baker doesn't have any of that stuff.
19:15
Speaker 1: The marshmallows added to the vegetables the most American thing
19:19
Speaker 1: I've ever heard of. Kaby, Happy Thanksgiving. I am thankful
19:23
Speaker 1: to have you on this podcast every single week. We
19:25
Speaker 1: will see you next week. Enjoy the football. Uh and
19:28
Speaker 1: thanks a lot, pal, Thanks for having me. God bless America. Okay,
19:33
Speaker 1: coming up next, we are talking about the best thing
19:35
Speaker 1: and the worst thing that I saw all weekend. There
19:37
Speaker 1: were so many good things, including lots of people shoveling,
19:41
Speaker 1: and there were a couple of bad things, and I
19:43
Speaker 1: don't know if you're gonna agree with my bad things,
19:45
Speaker 1: so don't go anywhere these Okay, there was just like
20:02
Speaker 1: love in the air this weekend. Um, we all saw
20:07
Speaker 1: the clips of how much snow Buffalo got. I gotta say,
20:11
Speaker 1: I mean, Buffalo is an incredible football team. You want
20:14
Speaker 1: to get behind them. I kind of love them more
20:17
Speaker 1: and I want to I want to watch a Super
20:19
Speaker 1: Bowl parade in Buffalo. I want these people to feel happiness.
20:24
Speaker 1: I feel like we think about Bills fans going through tables.
20:27
Speaker 1: They really came to the rescue of these players. Sean
20:30
Speaker 1: McDermott says Buffalo gets a bad rap because of the
20:33
Speaker 1: cold and the snow, but there's an awful lot of
20:36
Speaker 1: poor Son's probably write a movie about this. This would
20:41
Speaker 1: be a cute Okay, I'm not gonna say anymore because
20:43
Speaker 1: I'm gonna write this movie. Okay. Another thing that I
20:46
Speaker 1: love to see was just the Lions. You heard Kabe.
20:50
Speaker 1: We should all be grateful for the lines right now,
20:52
Speaker 1: just doing it. Third straight win for the first time
20:54
Speaker 1: since seventeen, I'll say that again. Third st eight win
21:00
Speaker 1: for the first time since twenty seventeen. What were you
21:05
Speaker 1: even doing in I'm trying to think nothing cool. Okay.
21:10
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams is the most charismatic player in the NFL.
21:13
Speaker 1: Get behind him, Okay, he is my favorite player. Of
21:17
Speaker 1: another crazy thing that I saw, which I'm putting it
21:20
Speaker 1: in the best category, but it could be easily in
21:22
Speaker 1: the worst category if you're a Bears fan. Bears of
21:25
Speaker 1: the first time first team in the one hundred and
21:28
Speaker 1: three year history of the NFL to score more than
21:30
Speaker 1: twenty eight points in three straight games and lose them all.
21:34
Speaker 1: I'm putting that in the good category because that is hilarious.
21:38
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry, Bears fans. I am so sorry. Is
21:41
Speaker 1: it because I wore a Bears jacker this weekend? Maybe
21:43
Speaker 1: I'm bed luck? Um? That is brutal. But I'm putting
21:47
Speaker 1: in the best thing that I saw. Sorry, okay, and
21:48
Speaker 1: then the worst thing that I saw. I feel like
21:50
Speaker 1: you guys aren't going to agree with this. Um. I
21:52
Speaker 1: feel like over the past few months we've talked about
21:54
Speaker 1: it on this very show. Oh b J where is
21:57
Speaker 1: he going? This weekend? We all saw the Cowboys absolutely
22:01
Speaker 1: ball out and just just schmush the Vikings. Okay, that's
22:06
Speaker 1: what they did. They smushed them um, and obviously oh
22:10
Speaker 1: b J tweeted about he said they went crazy, and
22:14
Speaker 1: then Micah Parsons said, come on them, Babbey, come and
22:20
Speaker 1: join us. I'm tired. I'm so over it. I'm I'm
22:24
Speaker 1: over this. I feel like he is pulling a Lebron.
22:27
Speaker 1: I feel like we're gonna hear about something special that's
22:30
Speaker 1: coming out on ESPN or or or NFL network that
22:34
Speaker 1: he is going to announce where he's going the decision
22:37
Speaker 1: or whatever that's called. Um, I'm done with the theatrics.
22:40
Speaker 1: Just please tell me where you want to go, and honestly,
22:42
Speaker 1: go to the Cowboys because that sounds so fun. But please,
22:46
Speaker 1: I don't want to be left in the dark anymore.
22:48
Speaker 1: I don't want to read these tweets. Um, so that's
22:50
Speaker 1: the worst thing I saw. O b J. Just tell us,
22:52
Speaker 1: tell us, tell us where you're going, and please go
22:55
