I was going to start off with my Christmas tree is delicious

Christmas for. Some reason when I listen to
0:28
that song it gives me like a sadness.
0:31
A sadness. Yeah, ever since I was little,
0:33
when I would listen to it, I would.
0:34
I always thought it was like a sad song.
0:36
You're like, you're like PETA convinced you that like, they
0:39
were OK burritos. He's leading him to the
0:43
slaughterhouse. We're having donkey for dinner.
0:46
I performed that song in second grade.
0:50
Stuck with me ever since. It's my Christmas song.
0:52
I it's not Christmas until I hear me Burrito Sabanero.
0:56
I need it in my playlist in December.
1:00
I think that song only has seven words.
1:07
I forgot there's I forgot there's a second part.
1:10
We're going to go see the homie Jesus.

Wow, how you feeling friend. December.
1:57
I feel like this year went by so quick what you say every year,
2:02
because then you as you grow old and you mature, you realize time
2:05
is fleeting. And we have no more whimsy.
2:08
No, some of us have. I have whimsy.
2:10
My medication has taken all of it away.
2:11
Oh shit, yeah, what are you on Prozac?
2:14
Can't say on live. Oh OK.
2:16
Live television. This isn't television.
2:18
Hopefully you find your whimsy. I have it somewhere, I put it in
2:21
a box, might be with my binoculars.
2:28
In a box in a Blake buried somewhere.
2:30
You put it in a time capsule. Yeah, I.
2:32
Have to just get through some trauma boxes and then I'll find
2:35
it right back and I'll put it back on.
2:36
Whimsy to be dug up when I turn 30.
2:40
Oh, please. Open when you turn 30.
2:43
Yeah, capsule. Damn, I have one full more year
2:45
before I I'm whimsical again. You can.
2:48
You can do it, you can do it. It's just one more year.
2:52
It's going to fly by again. Hi guys, welcome to the life of
2:55
late 20 year olds. My back hurts, I'm tired, I
2:57
don't sleep well. It's been like that since I was
3:00
like 20. Four, I know something in those
3:03
early 20s, like really the pandemic.
3:06
I could have been aged as a couple years, absolutely.
3:09
We were too sedentary. We're sitting at home instead of
3:11
just exploring the world. Sitting at home playing video
3:14
games. This is going to online.
3:15
School. It was the fucking best.
3:17
No, it wasn't. No horrible time.
3:18
It literally was the best. Horrible.
3:20
Time. Never want to live that again.
3:22
Everyone will be in my house all day playing video games.
3:24
Well, it's cool if you could just like selectively, like,
3:26
still see, like some friends true.
3:28
Be like, yo, like we're stuck at home, but like, my friends can
3:31
still come over. Yeah, yeah.
3:34
I mean, also to be fair, like I worked to tell tail end of that
3:38
like closer to 2021 into 2021. It was, it was a sad time.
3:42
It was definitely a sad time I bet, but.
3:45
Which we'll get into. We will have a Jerry's job
3:49
episode stay. Tuned.
3:50
It's still coming. It's on the bet.
3:51
It's on on the list. Yeah, I'm, I'm now I'm wondering
3:54
like what you were doing around that time.
3:56
Literally. Don't tell me.
3:59
Don't tell me literally don't tell me literally how you been,
4:05
friend. It is Thursday today.
4:07
He's just not going to guess. We're just going to continue the
4:10
conversation, OK? Just kidding.
4:11
OK, I'm good. No.
4:13
Wait for the episode to to disclose that information.
4:15
Oh, true. What we did during the pandemic,
4:17
what we did during the pandemic, the jobs, it works.
4:20
Did he try to poison me? That's what happened today.
4:22
I tried to poison you. He gave me Little Caesars, and
4:24
Little Caesars always makes my stomach yell.
4:27
So is it me or is it? Yourself, you said, friend, have
4:31
you ate dinner? And I said no.
4:32
And you said we're getting Little Caesars, So what choice
4:35
did I have in that? You're right, my bad.
4:37
You also said you have to drive me there.
4:40
I'd said you want Little Caesars good, because you have to drive
4:42
me there. I was dropped off.
4:44
It was pretty cool. Yeah, I love the host Mama.
4:47
Mom pick me up. I'm scared I'm recording a.
4:49
Podcast now. I never signed up for this.
4:52
His stomach's making noises. Mom, I'm scared.
4:54
Dude, I love Little Caesars. I do too.
4:57
It's. Not bad.
4:59
You know what's better than Little Caesars?
5:01
What? Reheated Little Caesars.
5:03
I'm on that boat all day every day.
5:06
I love a reheated Little Caesars pizza.
5:08
The cheese gets extra melty for some reason.
5:11
Yeah, yeah. Oh, I didn't take out the hot
5:15
honey for you guys. If you ever have Little Caesars,
5:18
you need to add Trader Joe's hot honey.
5:20
It is pink culinary cuisine cuisine.
5:25
Thank you for finishing my sentence.
5:26
That's what I do know. It's the word I knew existed,
5:29
but even in my brain in that moment.
5:32
For some reason it was right there.
5:33
Guys, it's the end of the year. I'm tired.
5:35
This year has been tiring. It's.
5:36
Hard out. It's Hard Out Here.
5:38
But it's Christmas. That's the.
5:40
Best freaking. Time, day, season.
5:47
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas.
5:52
So that's the song I sang in second grade.
5:55
No way. What's cool singing white
5:57
Christmas song about like sex? I'm just I, I'm just kidding.
6:01
Don't. Think so, and I hope not.
6:05
White Christmas. What are the colors White.
6:07
Snow, snow. Oh my God, they're doing
6:09
cocaine. It's a cocaine.
6:11
Song It's a Cocaine Christmas. Cocaine Christmas guys.
6:13
That's the name of the episode. Beautiful, beautiful title.
6:16
It's a Cocaine Christmas featuring guys.
6:18
We're coming at you with another Supernatural episode.
6:21
It has been too. Long.
6:23
It's been too long, and what better time to bring it back
6:25
than the freaking holiday, the Christmas spirit.
6:29
It's a holiday and we have some spooky stories for you.
6:33
Not spooky stories, but just some folklore.
6:36
Folklore. Yes, the the folklore found in
6:42
the lands of time. Yeah, I.
6:47
Don't know where it was going again.
6:49
Folklore of people of a Caucasian persuasion.
6:54
Oh. Because my folklore is based off
6:56
of old Europe. I am dying to hear what you
7:02
found, research and are going to be just today, Brian.
7:06
Guys, I want to talk to you about Krampus.
7:09
What the fuck did you call me? Krampus, you crusty bitch.
7:13
Guys, I'm sorry this is like 3 podcasts in a row.
7:16
I've called Jerry a bitch. I don't I.
7:17
Don't get your bitch. That's that's what he's just
7:19
saying because he's being recorded.
7:21
OK, I will have the the mic, the hidden mic.
7:24
No, he's going to expose me. I got you guys.
7:26
I call him swear words. He calls me things, bullies me.
7:30
OK, OK, Jerry Krampus, let me let me let me paint a picture
7:33
for you guys. I've been into creative writing
7:35
recently, so I'm going to I'm a I'm a stretch, my little
7:38
creative fingers. If you don't like it, don't tell
7:40
me. Imagine.
7:43
Imagine. Imagine you're.
7:45
Walking through your neighborhood as the sun goes
7:47
down, the cold is biting at your cheeks and your hands are tucked
7:51
deep into your pockets for warmth.
7:53
It is the night of December 5th and Christmas is a few weeks
7:56
away. As you stroll, your mind
7:59
wanders, thinking of all the things you put on your Christmas
8:01
list. You've definitely been on the
8:04
nice list this year. You have no doubts about it.
8:07
Christmas bells Jingle in the distance.
8:09
Maybe you'll get a new toy or a race car.
8:13
Maybe you've been good enough for a gaming console.
8:16
The merry sounds of bells follow you as you round the corner to
8:18
your block. Out of your jacket pocket, you
8:21
slip out the candy you stole from your friend's house.
8:24
They didn't even notice it was gone.
8:26
Grabbing it sneakily while his parents weren't looking, you
8:29
tear apart the wrapper. Popping the sweet winter candy
8:32
into your mouth, you quickly shove your cold hands back in
8:36
the warmth of your pockets. It's getting late, the sun has
8:39
dropped beneath the horizon. You pick up your pace once you
8:42
can see your house at the end of the block.
8:45
Are the bells getting louder? You stop for a moment.
8:50
That's not the familiar friendly chime of Christmas bells.
8:53
It's colder, heavier. You glance over your shoulder,
8:58
towards the stretch of woods in the distance.
9:01
The distinctive chime of a cowbell echoes through the
9:03
trees, across the rooftops, resonating deep in your soul.
9:08
You break into a Sprint, bolting full speed away from the sound.
9:12
Immediately, the sound of hooves on the ground follows you,
9:16
running faster than you are. The clang of dragging chains
9:19
drowns out the sand of your winded breaths.
9:22
You trip on uneven pavement. A shadow stretches over you,
9:26
silhouetted by the street lights above.
9:29
The world turns red as you face your stalker.
9:32
Krampus stands at your feet. His goat head looks down at you,
9:36
his antlers glistening in the Crimson light.
9:39
Threateningly. He raises A hefty stick in the
9:41
air. You've been naughty.
9:48
Had you like that I wrote it. You literally copied and pasted
9:52
that from my notes. No, I didn't.
9:55
I wrote that first and you didn't.
9:57
I wrote it. Dude, that was really freaking
10:00
good, man. Thank you.
10:02
I lied. I'm on the nut.
10:04
That was fucking good, man. Like I, I, I was hooked.
10:08
I'm pretty sure you hear the whispers.
10:09
I was like, wow, thank you, like.
10:12
Damn. Listen, what do you know about
10:15
Krampus? I got one.
10:17
I got a really bad one about last week on the hamstring.
10:21
No, Krampus, not crampness. What'd you know about crampness?
10:27
Oh, look, I honestly, I know there's a movie.
10:29
I've never seen it, but I know he's like this like beast like
10:36
thing that's supposed to be the like antithesis of Santa Claus.
10:41
You're hitting it right on the nose, friend.
10:43
I'm not reading this off my phone.
10:45
I'm. I have no phone in my hand.
10:46
I promise. Yeah, that's all I know.
10:48
I just, I don't know where it's from.
10:51
I'm going to guess like Germany. Hey, you're not.
10:54
You're like, right on the money, friend.
10:55
OK, OK. Rampus is a character in Alpine
10:58
folklore dating back sentries. He is known as the evil
11:02
counterpart to the good Saint Nicholas.
11:05
While Saint Nick exists to reward children for their good
11:07
behavior, Krampus exists to punish children for being
11:10
naughty. Krampus is traditionally
11:12
described as an evil creature with a goat like head, large
11:16
horns or more antlers, fur, hooves, and long claws.
11:20
Amazing. He usually carries a large stick
11:23
or log to beat misbehaved children.
11:26
Alternatively, he is also known to kidnap children, stowing them
11:30
away in his sack, OK, with the intent to torture or eat them.
11:35
That's what happens when you're naughty.
11:37
How would you react to that? You're like 11 years.
11:40
Old I was about to say that give me an Angel.
11:44
I think anyone if this was like a like a legend or like folklore
11:48
regional to like my area, I think I I believe I would
11:51
believe in it. I believe in the fucking kukui.
11:52
So I was like, I don't know, like it preteen because it's
11:56
like damn in the dark. Oh fuck, you never know.
11:59
You never fucking know. That's, I think, where feel fear
12:02
lies because you swear you know everything, but then you don't.
12:07
And that that little sliver of possibility is so scary.
12:10
And the darkness does great at letting your imagination go
12:14
wild. True, the absence of light is
12:16
just like a recipe for just nightmares, you know?
12:21
I think it's interesting that the way that describe this
12:23
resonates or is so similar to how like the devil's described.
12:27
Yeah, like go ahead porns, antlers.
12:32
Honestly, this guy sounds scarier because he has like when
12:35
I envision the devil, not that I do so often.
12:37
He's just like a human with like a go head.
12:40
This guy is full on beast with like fur and freaking claws.
12:43
Yeah, I don't know where, I don't know who, but like the
12:47
connections it might have been, but like the connections of like
12:51
hell and heaven across like we met.
12:54
We, we mentioned this too, across like different societies,
12:58
different societies around the map, around the globe.
13:00
And it's like always something horned, something beast, like
13:03
that's always creepy because it's like to what?
13:05
What do you do? Like if you see that, you know.
13:08
Yeah, like Philip from The Witch.
13:10
I wonder. Yeah, Why is it always goats?
13:12
I don't know. What what, what's why do people
13:15
think of like a human mix of goat and it's set up and it
13:21
makes it evil. Is it the horns?
13:22
We'll. Have a goat podcast a a goat
13:25
episode. Yeah, the podcast featuring the
13:27
goats, the GERD. So why does Krampus exist?
13:35
His origins date back long before in modern Christmas
13:37
traditions. His lore is tied to pre German
13:40
Pagan practices in Europe. Those rituals often included
13:43
spirits or creatures who represented the harshness of
13:45
winter discipline or the darker elements of the season.
13:49
His name originates from the German word krampen, which means
13:52
kla. He is described as the sun of
13:55
Hell, the Norse God of the underworld.
13:58
While Saint Nicholas exists to symbolize generosity and joy,
14:00
Krampus exists to represent the dark underbelly of consequences
14:04
and moral discipline. Good, good, good.
14:07
Way to my my question for this part for you was is he, which
14:12
you already asked, is he the European version of the Kukui?
14:15
Yes, absolutely. Well, no, no, Oh no, he is not.
14:19
Why? I think he is like a kukui, but
14:23
the kukui is universal to whatever.
14:25
Oh, not universal, he is. He's year round.
14:27
He's year round. He's not tied down to a specific
14:30
season holiday. He is just you're bad kukui
14:33
darkness kukui like you're you're where you're not supposed
14:36
to be. Kukui, the Kukui's clock did
14:39
every day. He's every day of the year.
14:40
Is locked in like he is not taking.
14:42
They are. I don't know what it is.
14:44
They are not taking any breaks. They're on the clock.
14:47
Anytime, anytime the sun goes down, the kukui is nearby.
14:50
He works the night shift and he is happy with that.
14:53
He's. Going to slobber you up.
14:54
He won't find you. But yeah, I, I don't think he's
14:57
the equivalent, but I do think it's like the European
15:01
equivalent to like a maybe like a Halloween thing, I don't know.
15:08
Anyways I think the the theme is similar like if you misbehave
15:10
like some evil creature is going to get you.
15:14
Which again, why is that like such a common theme like
15:16
throughout Generations cultures? They're like discipline doesn't
15:23
work but a scary ass monster will.
15:24
Yeah, my parents doesn't work. If I plant this seed of terror,
15:28
maybe they'll put you right. Yeah, damn.
15:31
One of the most unique ways that Krampus is celebrated in modern
15:34
times is through events called Krampus runs what the also known
15:38
as Krampus Lauf. That's a no.
15:41
I hope I pronounced that right. Krampus, Lauf.
15:45
No. Like, I'm so sorry, I'm not
15:48
German, I don't speak those languages.
15:50
Nine, you speak German. No, I don't, but I can if you
15:53
like. Yeah, these events are these.
15:58
These events are held every year on or around December 5th.
16:03
Guys, the day after this, watch out, you don't know if Krampus
16:06
might be stomping around. Don't be naughty.
16:08
No, be naughty. Don't.
16:09
Be naughty, Krampus is going to come get you.
16:13
They hold these events in countries such as Austria,
16:16
Bavaria, Northern Italy and Slovenia.
16:19
It's a little bit, Yeah, let. Me tell you about Krampus runs
16:21
because I read one article that had a bunch of pictures that was
16:24
low key nightmare fuel. I want to see those post those
16:28
on Instagram. Yeah, I, I, I saved them.
16:30
OK, cool. Honestly think of Halloween
16:34
Horror nights. OK, mixed with a Disneyland
16:39
parade. OK, but everyone is speaking
16:41
German. No, that's Russian, I was going
16:45
to say. That and they're all wearing
16:47
Krampus costumes, very nice. So these festivals, they're
16:52
pretty big. They're pretty loud and they're
16:55
extremely chaotic. Everything is lit up red, like
17:02
all the lights are are replaced with like bright red lights.
17:05
And you line up on either side of like the parade routes behind
17:09
gates. So there's gates separating you
17:11
from like, the street and where you're watching because the
17:16
people in costume running around have goat masks on with crazy
17:22
antlers or crazy like horns and they got big sticks.
17:27
Some of them have torches like like scary weapons and they run
17:32
at the sides of the gate. Like, they're not like, like get
17:35
at you. Or get out you trying to hit
17:36
you. That's where it reminds me of
17:37
like Horror Nights where they chase you but they're not meant
17:41
to hurt you, they're just. It's also giving Grudge.
17:44
I feel like it's a slippery slope of someone going getting a
17:48
little too into character and causing some drama.
17:51
The article I read, I'll see if I can.
17:55
I have the source. I might have to put that in the
17:57
notes for the episode. But the guy who went to one of
18:00
these events said it was mostly like teenagers that they would
18:03
go after that they would go and like high 5 the little kids,
18:06
'cause it's not meant to be like super scary.
18:08
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's supposed to be like, kind
18:10
of like, oh, you're in on the joke.
18:12
Like, yeah, this is kind of silly.
18:14
But he said that he saw one really like kind of getting real
18:18
aggressive that security had to pull him away.
18:20
OK. And that to me is just like
18:21
we're, we might be inching a little too far.
18:23
Yeah, I think there's always got to be like that one person that
18:26
just, like, immerses themselves in their character and just,
18:29
like, takes it a step too far and security's got to come in
18:32
and be like, get your ass over here, dude.
18:33
Like or it's a real Krampus and they wait for these events for
18:38
them. To surface.
18:40
Imagine we're going to start spreading lies.
18:43
OK, let's do it. Let's do it, Let's do it.
18:44
Every year, Krampus shows up at these events, hidden away.
18:47
One person is Krampus. You.
18:50
Don't know who it is the. One with the big sack to fit the
18:52
children. Fit the children?
18:53
Yeah, The one giving high fives maybe.
18:56
Yeah, to the to the good. It's like, wow, good job.
18:59
Like hey, I might be scary as fuck, but you're.
19:01
Doing great. Yeah, you're doing great.
19:02
You you don't need. Parenting.
19:03
Let me praise you real quick. Even though I'm Krampus.
19:05
So Krampus has morals and values.
19:09
Yeah, he says. You, You're a good kid.
19:12
You're good. You're doing great.
19:13
Keep a good job. You're on honor roll.
19:15
Fantastic. Keep doing what you're doing.
19:16
Perfect attendance, it's like. Star chart fool.
19:20
It definitely is Sagittarius. I could tell you got goals.
19:24
Is that, oh, is this Sagittarius a goat?
19:27
No, Sagittarius. I don't know.
19:30
Sagittarius is the Archer OK? I don't know.
19:33
OK. Doesn't matter, we'll have that
19:35
episode, maybe. Yeah, eventually.
19:37
Eventually, your cousin answers your calls.
19:40
Or I respond. Or I respond back OK, on top of
19:44
all this red lighting flames, they also carry on chains.
19:50
So it's kind of scary. There's a lot of yelling.
19:53
They also have like metal music playing in the background.
19:56
I fucking love that. I wanna go.
19:58
Oh shit. I.
20:00
Feared. I'm gonna describe this to Jerry
20:02
and he's gonna want to experience this once in his
20:03
life. In Germany.
20:05
Not in Germany. God, I'm sorry.
20:07
Austria. Parts of Italy, allegedly.
20:10
I go back to Italy anytime, Slovenia.
20:12
And never come back. I guess some of them are bigger
20:13
than others. Some of them are like more
20:15
touristy. But the one that the person in
20:17
the article went to was like a small village.
20:20
Give me that one. And he's like, no one there
20:21
spoke English. This was explicitly for them,
20:25
and it was the wildest thing I've.
20:26
Ever seen I want to do that I will want like I would want to
20:29
go to that with a local true with us, but.
20:32
Explain things to me. Yeah, but I I definitely want to
20:35
experience that in my life. That sounds fucking cool.
20:37
He did give one warning ahead of time though, Eat before because
20:41
there was not a lot of food options.
20:42
Was there beer? I don't know.
20:44
I don't know if this is a drunken holiday, if there's
20:46
like, open flame and people walking around with weapons.
20:48
I hope not. I'm sure they have safety
20:51
measures for the workers. They were not allowed to.
20:53
Costumes everyone else is no. I feel like that'll just scare
20:57
people or drunk. People in the I mean, the
21:00
scarier people are the drunk people.
21:02
Exactly. That's awesome.
21:05
Do you have a picture that you can swim right now?
21:07
Pull one up. That's crazy.
21:10
I could just imagine. Look at how their costumes.
21:13
Are insane. Fucking cool.
21:14
Imagine showing up to the Ren fair in that I.
21:16
Don't think you'd be allowed. I think you could.
21:18
I mean, if you have the mask off and then walk in and then put it
21:21
back on when you're in there I. Was like, what am I gonna get?
21:24
Dang, with fucking light? Yeah, one of them had like
21:26
Christmas lights on, on their horns, horns, antlers.
21:32
It doesn't look like it doesn't doesn't a little ferret.
21:36
Oh, that's the best. But honestly, like look at the
21:43
background. There's all smoke.
21:45
Smoke. It's red.
21:46
It looks like. It seems musty.
21:47
Hell unleashed. Yeah.
21:50
Walking through the gates of. The cramp as hell.
21:54
Cramp as hell or what's the middle like when you're stuck in
21:58
the limbo? Yeah, limbo.
21:59
Yeah, Limbo. Wow, that's that's gnarly.
22:03
So would you go? I would go 10 out of 10.
22:05
I kind of want to go. I would love to go.
22:08
Put it on my list of like an early December holiday event.
22:11
That's like one of those festival.
22:12
OK, so when we it's. Also the day after my birthday,
22:14
it could be a birthday. Event it could be a birthday.
22:17
You can dress as one of the things as your birthday.
22:19
Nope. I'm not dressing up as Krampus.
22:21
You're like, I'm already horny. I don't need a mask.
22:24
I don't need a horn mask. Everyone knows.
22:27
Everyone knows. I feel like when we well, I
22:33
didn't feel when. We know that was a joke.
22:35
Yeah, that was a joke. That was a joke.
22:38
When we went to Italy, there was like a, a, some parade that was
22:44
for an event that was going to happen in like the following
22:47
days, which we weren't going to be there for.
22:49
It wasn't Krampus. It was not Krampus.
22:51
No, they all had. Oh, you went in like June?
22:53
Yeah, it was. It was it was in June and it was
22:56
for like the surrounding cities representing almost like a World
23:01
Cup if you think about it, like different teams representing
23:03
certain communities and cities or regions in that area in
23:07
foreign sports. I want to say it's like a rugby,
23:10
but it's like way more violent than a rugby type game.
23:14
It might even be fights. I don't remember what it.
23:16
Wasn't like the oiled up like wrestling.
23:18
No, no, because they all had like regional colours for their
23:22
like flag and they had like their own little team walking
23:24
the streets and there was a bunch of teams, but I guess
23:27
each, I wish I remembered what I searched it up and I found it.
23:31
But things like that, I would want to experience something
23:33
like that that is local to that city or wherever where.
23:37
Something not super popular that you're not going to see.
23:39
Like it's not going to be transmitted anywhere.
23:41
It's not. This is literally just for their
23:43
people. There's no YouTube video to
23:44
learn about it. You have to be their present.
23:47
Or if there is, like you just find one of them that's not as
23:50
touristy. You know, that one I think is a
23:52
little bit touristy because it's in a major city in Italy.
23:55
But I would love to go to that. That sounds really fun.
23:58
Put it in your calendars. Come on, guys, we're going to
24:00
get a whole group going. Let's go.
24:01
We're all going to book our trip.
24:02
Look, guys. Krampus, 2027.
24:04
If we all pitch in 20 bucks every day, every every day for.
24:09
Me and Jerry don't pitch in anything.
24:10
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then we hold the money.
24:12
We don't tell you where we're holding it or what we're doing
24:14
with it, but you can trust. Us.
24:16
We will make it to Krampus, Yeah.
24:18
Like me and Brian Wee? Yeah, you're funding it.
24:21
Thank you. Thank you for supporting.
24:23
Thank you for the birthday present.
24:25
Thank you for my birthday present.
24:26
Yeah, you guys are so kind. So kind I I can't believe you
24:29
guys. Don't worry, be without all your
24:31
guys's kindness. Maybe we have fans in like
24:33
Austria that are listening and they're like.
24:35
If you're in Austria and you know Krampus, hit me up.
24:40
Tell him to hit us up. Send me a message.
24:41
Send us Adm to the daily BJ's. Slide in our DMS, be like hey
24:45
you want Krampus? Show me your clocks.
24:47
Show me the sack. Show me the sack.
24:51
Too easy. How many kids can fit in that
24:53
thing too? Do you have to like go and then
24:55
come back? He has a bag of holding for
24:58
children. Oh my God, he's going to eat a
25:02
bag of holding is AD and D thing.
25:03
It's a magical bag that you can just store like.
25:05
Anything have any size? There is a limit.
25:09
There is a limit, right? I've never reached it.
25:11
No, I don't think I've. I don't think we've ever seen
25:12
anything close to being filled anyways.
25:17
Wow, Brian. That was very light research,
25:18
like now discussing it, I have so many more questions.
25:21
Where does he take these children?
25:23
What does his home look like? Crew?
25:26
Does he have a partner? What's his relationship with
25:29
Saint Nick? Because from what I read, they
25:30
just, they're like opposite sides of the same coin.
25:33
Like they work in tandem. It's an enemy celebrity.
25:35
It's. Oh my God, I need the Saint Nick
25:38
Cramp is a fanfic. I need the Nick Nick, Nick,
25:44
Nick, Nick. No.
25:45
What's what's a good ship name for them?
25:47
Oh crap, Nick, crap. Nick.
25:50
Saint Cramp. There you go.
25:51
There you go. St.
25:52
Cramp. Fan fiction.
25:53
Yeah. I.
25:53
Someone write it, please. If not, I will.
25:55
Same Nickel Cramp. Nico Nicolas.
25:59
Is his first name. Nicholas.
26:01
Saint Nick. Is he a St.
26:03
I don't know. What was his?
26:06
To become a St. you have to like, create a miracle.
26:09
This is a miracle, like traveling the whole world in one
26:11
night. Faster than he doesn't.
26:13
Have to be dead to be a St. He's dead.
26:17
If you're in the Catholic Church and you're a St., I'm pretty
26:19
sure you got to be dead. Santa's dead.
26:22
That's random. Side note, Instagram, sorry,
26:28
podcast topic, OK, the Catholic Church, because there's some
26:33
spooky stuff in that. We yes, yes we can.
26:38
I am down. I am super down.
26:40
We're going to expose some. Vatican secrets?
26:43
I don't know any, but what if I find one online?
26:45
But what if I find one right now?
26:46
What if I make it into the Vatican?
26:48
Types dude wow, that was so cool Brian.
26:52
I also have many questions. I also I'm asking myself where
26:56
does he take them? I think that's the biggest one
26:57
like OK, they're in the sack. Where do they go where they go?
27:00
Does he go into the? Sack.
27:03
Is this the sack his house? Is this whole operation through
27:05
the sack? Yeah.
27:07
Or is he going to the South Pole where it's wouldn't it be hot
27:11
there? No, the poles are No, both poles
27:14
are cold. Oh, that's right.
27:15
I think both poles are cold. Right I.
27:18
Don't know we're not allowed in Antarctica.
27:19
I'm not smarter than 1/5 grader. We're not no.
27:21
Oh, the ice wall. The no, no, like no one.
27:23
Like there was this like young pilot from somewhere in South
27:27
America. Maybe he took a solo trip to
27:30
Antarctica. Homeboy was arrested and I don't
27:33
know if they've even let him out.
27:35
What are you hiding? I don't know world, why was
27:38
there an agreement not to from all the countries saying like
27:42
you can't go? There.
27:42
We're not going to go there guys.
27:43
We're. Just going to, we can't go
27:45
there. You see this area, you can't go
27:46
there. Guys, please moving on.
27:51
Which files? Oh, I was like, what you got
27:53
from me? Really.
27:55
You got them. Dude I mean shit, I feel like
27:58
they would fucking release what's it past Antarctica
28:00
anyways? True.
28:02
What are they hiding? What are they hiding?
28:04
What you got for me? Jerry Man Well, OK, that was
28:07
awesome, friend. Once again, I want to give you
28:09
hell of props for that creative writing.
28:11
I think that's thank you. That's honestly just like a gift
28:15
to be able to put words and then make it into a story and then
28:18
have people listen to it and then just create a world in
28:21
their head. I think that's super.
28:22
That's a gift. Thank you.
28:23
That was really good, friend. That this all stems from
28:26
Dungeons and Dragons. That muscle was there like a
28:28
long time ago and like it's been stretching, getting stronger.
28:32
Wow. And hey, if I drop a book guys,
28:34
will you all read it? Hell yes we would.
28:36
Thank you. If you pay me, I.
28:41
Don't like the eye contact he made with me when he said.
28:43
That pay me, I'll read your book.
28:46
I I want to disclose something I was telling you earlier, but I
28:49
would like to tell our listeners and be trans listeners listeners
28:53
and be transparent with you guys.
28:55
I've had a rough couple days recently.
28:58
It's it's, it's back to work, you know, after a good little
29:01
break and it's just been real, real heavy.
29:02
So I no, I did not do some creative writing because that's
29:07
not mine. That's not my fortune.
29:09
However you. Don't have to do creative.
29:11
However, I will be dropping the link of where I am giving or or
29:19
teaching y'all the material because this is on my website.
29:22
I have a single source but what I found was just really fun
29:25
where I can't make it my own. This is like really well put
29:29
together and I want y'all to experience it.
29:34
I'm going to tell you about three.
29:38
I think they're Icelandic folklore, Icelandic, Iceland,
29:44
Iceland. I'm trying to get myself an
29:46
accent for this, but it's so cool because you learn once
29:51
again, things that you make automatic connection with with
29:54
like, you know, Western culture or just like Mexican culture,
29:57
whatever it is, but it's super interesting.
30:00
So the first one, if they're going to build up, they're going
30:03
to they're all going to build up on 111 another.
30:05
I'm excited. OK, so this first one is, and
30:10
excuse me if I mispronounce something because I do not know.
30:13
Icelandic Grilla. Grilla, probably Grilla, one of
30:20
Iceland's most renowned figures associated with Christmas.
30:24
Grylla is a giant troll who in a perpetual who is in a perpetual
30:30
bad mood due to their insatiable hunger for children.
30:36
Why is it always OK? You got me in the first half.
30:39
Each Christmas, Gryla comes down from her mountain dwelling to
30:42
hunt for naughty children. Not.
30:44
Campus. She places them in a sack and
30:47
drags them back to her cave, where she boils them alive for
30:50
her new for her favorite Stew. What this is?
30:54
This gives you more more like Oh my God.
30:57
So you had this in your pocket while I'm telling you about the
30:59
sack? Yes, but I was just why is there
31:02
always a sack guys? Sack with the kids.
31:05
And she has thirteen sons, the. Yule.
31:10
Only 13, Yes, only 13. And only sons.
31:14
Boy mom, activity boy mom. That's a boy mom right there.
31:17
The Yule Lads. They are called the Yule Lads.
31:20
I've heard of the Yule Lads. Told me that's not a great
31:23
fucking name. I don't know.
31:24
The Yule Lads are real. Oh, they're real in Iceland.
31:33
When you think of 13 lads, what do you think of?
31:35
I think of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.
31:38
That was my first thought and I've never seen I've never seen
31:41
Snow White. I know it's one that's on my
31:43
TBW. Yeah, I watched the animation.
31:45
Don't watch the live action. I I think I only know the new
31:47
one is the. Don't watch the live action,
31:49
don't watch that one. I won't.
31:50
I won't. I don't support Gaga Dome.
31:52
I wasn't planning on it but I will watch the this the original
31:57
So the Yule Lads, the 13 sons of Gorilla.
32:00
They are known for a particular habit or characteristic, much
32:04
like the Disney version of Snow White. 7 dwarves.
32:06
Most of them are depicted as mischievous pranksters and petty
32:09
criminals. I.
32:11
That's what happens to children of boy moms.
32:13
I'm I mean, there's only so much you can do, man.
32:15
A single mother, a single works 2 jobs, eats kids, eats kids in
32:20
her favorite soup. So the Icelandic children are
32:25
visited each night on the 13 days leading up to Christmas by
32:28
a different Yule lad. It's like Hanukkah.
32:30
Only one lad visiting you. For 30 days, each one's a
32:34
different one. OK, each one is a different 1
32:36
sheep coat clog. A peg legged sheep fancier.
32:44
What are the words you're saying to?
32:45
Me these, these are the names and then what they're like, what
32:47
they do or what they're known for.
32:48
OK, so that was what name that? Was one the sheep coat clog, a
32:52
peg legged sheep fancier gulley hawk who hides out in ditches or
32:58
gullies and waits for an opportune moment to run into the
33:01
cow shed and lick the foam off the milk in the milking buckets.
33:07
This is so specific. This is Gulley Hawk Stubby,
33:13
whose name denotes his stature as he is unusually short.
33:17
Spoon liquor, a liquor and thief of spoons.
33:21
Pot Scraper, who is a petty thief of leftovers.
33:24
That's just that's just me, dude.
33:26
That's just me. You today eating your
33:28
Thanksgiving leftover. For real.
33:29
I'm still eating my Thanksgiving.
33:30
What's his name? No, this is pot scraper.
33:33
Pot scraper. Scraping those pots off the
33:34
leftovers. Bowl liquor who hides under your
33:38
bed and waits for you to absent mindedly put down your bowl so
33:42
he can steal and yes, lick it. Dude, hold on.
33:47
We're almost done. We're almost done.
33:50
Door slammer who slams doors all night.
33:53
Scur gobbler who eats scur or yogurt.
33:57
OK, that's not bad that he seems pretty chill.
33:59
That's. Just a boy eating yogurt.
34:01
This is someone who I thought could have been you, but I don't
34:05
see you taking books. The booking flights to Iceland.
34:08
The sausage swiper who steals sausage.
34:12
Hey, hey, not too much, not too. Much.
34:14
My bad. My bad, my bad.
34:15
I didn't know you were a old lad.
34:17
Told you that in confidence. Yo, the window peeper who
34:20
watches you from the windows. Yeah, he's a little weirdo.
34:24
The doorway sniffer who uses his incredibly large nose to sniff
34:28
through doors to find bread. Honestly, skill.
34:32
That's on is pretty good. That's the.
34:33
Skill you can take to the bank. Imagine you just put it like you
34:36
just made a love took you all day.
34:38
You took so much time with that stupid starter to get your.
34:40
You just said. Imagine you just made love.
34:43
And then someone steals it. I did.
34:49
Y'all making love there? You're sniffing.
34:51
He's going to find it. He's going to find that bread.
34:54
The bread? Yeah.
34:56
The the meat hook. Who always brings a hook along
34:59
with him so he can still meet and last but not least, the
35:04
candle stealer who follows children around so he can steal
35:08
their candles, leaving them in the dark.
35:10
Guys, be real careful with your candles.
35:13
Don't if you're going to go to the to the bathroom in the
35:15
middle of the night, just use your phone.
35:17
Don't use your. Candles.
35:18
No guys leave candles in the past.
35:19
You don't want to open the door to any of that.
35:21
Lock your bread guys, Lock up your.
35:23
Bread. Lock up your bread.
35:24
Make sure you have no scraps or leftovers, just out in the open
35:28
unattended. On the floor.
35:29
Don't put your but that what is it?
35:31
The the bowl liquor. If you have spoons, put them
35:35
away. Yeah.
35:36
Lock them up. I mean if if you see Stubby just
35:41
don't make fun of him. It's he he can't control his
35:43
height. Yeah, Stubby.
35:44
He has no negative trait other than just being short.
35:46
He's not doing anything weird. He's a short king.
35:48
Leave him alone. Yeah, this is, this is like I
35:52
was dying when I was reading these.
35:54
I was just like, dude, no way. Like they're just little
35:56
doendes. They're doendes.
35:57
Yeah, they are. We have them.
35:58
But like, I've never made mine. But in Mexico, the doende has
36:02
all these abilities. It's just one person.
36:04
They're not separated into individual.
36:06
And he and he's got silver. Oh my God, he's got silver caps.
36:09
Oh my God. And his name?
36:12
'S Jose Oh josecito josecito El Mal creado mucoso.
36:16
OK, dealing your socks anyways. So those are the kids of
36:22
Guerilla, right? The 13 badass little kid.
36:26
Of course they have a pet. Of course they have a 13 kids.
36:29
Was not enough? No.
36:30
Is she making enough soup for all these kids and the dog?
36:32
Apparently that's where you're wrong, friend.
36:36
It's a cat. Oh my God, I had a 5050 chance.
36:40
You know, one of them was like crying.
36:41
I mean, I want to, I want a cat. I'll take care of it.
36:44
They ain't taking care of this cat.
36:45
I'll feed it. They let that dude wild.
36:47
They let this cat wild. And now he's just fending for
36:50
himself. We'll take it a walk.
36:51
This is a your cat. The Yule Cat.
36:54
The Yule cat and yes, I have pictures.
36:56
OK, pictures of the Yule cat. OK.
36:58
Pictures. They're OK, They're they're
36:59
trying, so OK, OK, OK. The pet of both gorilla and the
37:03
gulabs, the Yule cat's prey consists of both children and
37:07
adults. Unlike the other Christmas
37:10
monsters, this cat does not care about your misdeeds.
37:13
During the year, the only insurance against being torn
37:16
apart and eaten by this giant feline is receiving an article
37:20
of new clothing for Christmas. Shop Wise.
37:24
The parents said this. They said you have to be
37:26
thankful that you've got a new pair of pants.
37:32
This was awesome. So this was the Monsters of
37:34
Christmas by Sarah Elizabeth Troupe.
37:37
This is from 2013 on atlasobscura.com.
37:41
I've heard of that website. It's so good they have so many
37:43
good like this was just such a fun article to read this.
37:48
OK, first I'm going to show you Gorilla Gorilla gorilla toys.
37:53
She's a troll. EW EW, she's.
37:55
Literally a troll. OK, OK, let me describe what I'm
37:58
seeing. There is a woman, she has a
38:00
child's leg in her mouth because she's chomping down.
38:04
Is that the sack behind her with more kids?
38:07
Yep. You see the hand and the heads
38:08
poking up? Yeah.
38:09
Yeah. Is she holding one of her
38:11
children? Or dinner.
38:13
So if you see, there's like half the kids in the sack still so
38:17
actively pulling it out. She's just so many kids she just
38:19
pulled from the sack. Well, she's not even finished
38:21
with the first. One.
38:22
Well, she's hungry, OK. OK, she's got some crazy ice
38:29
blue eyes. Look at those.
38:30
Yeah, I don't trust that. OK, look at the eyelashes.
38:34
Look it out. Those are gnomes.
38:36
Look it out. Jerry, those are gnomes.
38:37
EW, he's licking a spoon. That's the spoon.
38:39
I don't know what I did. Oh, you just.
38:41
I broke it. I don't want to.
38:44
I want to. I want to.
38:45
I want to have to hold it. Is that the hook the meat hook
38:51
the sausage? Steeler.
38:52
That's me. Who's that one with the bucket?
39:00
I don't know. OK, I don't know.
39:03
Maybe that's the bowl liquor. Maybe that's what a bowl is.
39:05
Oh no, that's the milk skimmer. The one that looks.
39:07
Oh my God. Like a milk 2 lbs.
39:10
That was a little weird. You set me up with that one,
39:12
hey? Man, he likes what he likes.
39:14
I know, but that I want to see that one in the bull liquor.
39:16
The weirdest? So the skim is like the the fat,
39:19
right that rises that becomes all like foamy and bubbly.
39:22
Yeah, that's, that's an acquired taste.
39:25
Not for me. I've never had that, never had
39:27
the desire to taste that. OK, maybe you have atole.
39:30
Have you ever had Atole? Yeah, probably.
39:34
That top part that becomes like that, I think that's the skim,
39:37
isn't it? I don't know.
39:38
La nata isn't, isn't it nata? I don't know Nata nata.
39:42
I don't know. Banda Nata's so good, dude.
39:44
Oh my. God, that's a great.
39:46
Bird anyways. I never had that.
39:48
Look at the yolads. That's such a good name.
39:49
Oh, that Yolad's going to still have that bread.
39:51
Y'all got bread? Y'all got bread sourdough?
39:54
Show me the cat. I want to see the cat.
39:57
Oh, that is a scary cat. That's.
40:00
Cool though. That's very cool.
40:02
It has like white markings on his face, like around its eyes
40:04
and its nose. And that's an adult.
40:08
I fully thought it was going to be like a ginger cat.
40:11
It was a black cat. I mean, that also doesn't say
40:13
like, what are the like the features, colors and how big is
40:16
of. So these are all illustrations
40:18
by Dylan Thorez. Wow.
40:22
So Iceland, I I kind of got stuck on Iceland for that one.
40:25
I thought it was super fun. Does like Christmas originate
40:29
from like those European countries?
40:31
Absolutely. And then?
40:33
Yeah, because it's Krampus. And then what was the name?
40:35
Grila. Grila, yeah.
40:36
Jesus, Ry. So similar, like they're the
40:39
same person. Maybe that's his wife, his baby
40:42
Mama? No, those are all his kids.
40:46
Krampus be dropping kids? You got to make this fanfic,
40:49
dude. You got to.
40:49
You got to. You got to drop the lore,
40:51
please. Oh my God.
40:53
OK, Well have a follow up. More Iceland, more Icelandic.
40:58
Oh OK Brian. Yes, till Hamidju male afmilio.
41:11
What did you say to me? I I put a spell on you that was
41:15
happy birthday in Icelandic. Now I'm going to, I'm going to
41:20
Holy Yoda, I'm going to play this out loud because I'm pretty
41:23
sure I butchered that. OK, I sounded exactly like that.
41:29
It sounded exactly like that I was.
41:31
Going to try to repeat it but I lost it.
41:32
No, really. No, I don't want to.
41:34
OK, what if I see something We've been.
41:37
Oh, what do you like if? I pronounce it wrong.
41:39
I said, like you said, a bad word.
41:41
I totally said something bad. If you all speak Icelandic, go.
41:43
So don't tell us. Don't we can't know We I can't
41:51
make those sounds like. Neither can I, that was also
41:53
slowed down. But happy birthday, Brian, this
41:55

41:59
such a good friend. OK, you're going to make me
42:01

many kind words and messages that would want to be shared and
47:53
in the moment because it is your birthday today.
47:56
Yeah, we just wanted to give that to you.
47:58
Also potentially could get more because I did kind of send us a
48:02
little late to some people, so I apologize, but how long?
48:07
When did you do this? How did you do this about it?
48:10
Don't worry about it. It's your birthday, OK?

48:22
coordinating that. Macy's deary eyed.
48:28
Let that. OK, that's it.
48:29
You guys can't say anything emotional to me when we
48:31
celebrate because I'll be drunk and I don't want to cry.
48:34
Too old, too old to cry. I'm too old.
48:37
I'm too old to be drunk crying. You get a hernia at.
48:40
The club. Oh man.
48:44
Literally I was like reaching for my phone so I could say my
48:47
sources. We'll throw those in the
48:51
comments. You put them in the comments.
48:53
Come on now. Thank you everyone that was.
48:56
Very, very, very, very sweet. Called an attorney, 29.
48:59
It's been what? It's been a great year.
49:01
I was going to say had a lot of adventures this year.
49:05
In the year of 28 to 29, I want to say truly found myself living
49:10
like the the best life that I, I never envisioned myself living.
49:17
So happy for all my friends, for family, for all the adventures
49:21
people have taken me on in the last year, all the, the learning
49:25
and the growing I've done the exploring of different hobbies
49:30
and like exploring my creativity.
49:33
I think that's what I've learned in my my older age to just do
49:38
whatever you want. Like try anything once, try
49:40
anything twice as Alexa says. That's very.
49:45
Nice everything twice, but if the first time is a fluke, but
49:48
try everything twice. Here's to another fun year,
49:52
which I think turn going like going into 30.
49:58
Best year yet. At least that's what I'm hoping
50:02
for. That's what I'm setting my mind
50:03
to. 29 to 30 is going to go out without bang.
50:09
Here's to it. Hope you all stick around, see
50:12
what's coming. You're gonna see the brightest
50:19
side of me. Maybe I'll drop a song.
50:22
Maybe I was working on it the other day.
50:26
You know what I heard right now when you're saying my maybe I'll
50:28
drop a song working on the other.
50:32
Day, I'm gonna punch him in the balls.
50:36
I'm gonna punch him in the balls.
50:39
Again, I I Ryan's a great singer.
50:41
I I think if you were to drop any album, any.
50:43
EP No, Here's a big hit. I've been dropping seeds there.
50:49
I'm planning that a year from today there's going to be a
50:52
performance some way, somehow. Yes, That is my, my, my.
50:57
One of my birthday dreams, OK? Has been for years.
51:02
There needs to be a venue, a stage.
51:06
I need to perform, my friends need to perform.
51:10
I want everyone to showcase their talents.
51:12
That's what I want for my birthday.
51:13
That's pretty great. I want my friends to also live
51:15
their dreams because I have so many friends that I know would
51:18
want to like get up on that stage and perform.
51:23
I'm down. Putting out there for my
51:25
birthday, I. Want a good idea?
51:26
Forever. They want joy for my friends,
51:29
everyone. I hope you win whatever battles
51:31
you're fighting everywhere. I want everyone to really live
51:36
their life to the fullest. Love that because by osmosis and
51:40
association I get to experience that.
51:42
I get to experience my friends living their best lives and let
51:46
that be selfish of me, but that's what I want to see.
51:48
That's a blessing. So you, Jerry, this next year
51:51
you got to live the best year of your life.
51:53
I promise me, dude, give me a picky promise.
51:56
Toma A toma, let's do it. Fiero, Pariente.
52:04
Fiero. Fiero.
52:05
Fiero. We saw wicked.
52:11
We saw Wicked, I think this is the last episode we were
52:15
dropping the Wicked and it's still.
52:17
Too good. I've been jamming to the
52:19
soundtrack for the first movie all week.
52:21
OK, OK, OK. I was like, wow, how's?
52:23
The new one. It's the the new ones like it's
52:26
obviously not like as many bangers.
52:27
Is not the first one. There's two songs.
52:29
There's still great songs, but. Arguably one of the one of two
52:35
of the best songs in the whole. Yeah, the whole show.
52:42
Which one? Happier?
52:44
It's called no. I love happier.
52:46
I don't. I don't know that one.
52:47
That's the one that Ariana Grande sings at the beginning.
52:50
And and a happy year. That one's a good one.
52:54
Is it happier I have to get those anyways?
52:56
I don't know, but in my head I keep, I have it takes 2 to make
52:59
a thing going on, but it's not that one.
53:02
It takes 2. It's still not that one, because
53:06
I knew. You that one, That one, The
53:08
remix of the first one. Because I Knew you.
53:10
Yeah. There's a remix.
53:13
Well, there's that. That Because I Knew you was from
53:15
the first one, isn't it? No, no, I don't know.
53:17
Isn't it? Isn't it when?
53:18
Maybe they sing like a little line, yeah.
53:19
Yeah, maybe. And then they they bring it back
53:21
for the second movie. But I think so.
53:22
OK, off topic, Off topic, I hope you guys have a very fantastic
53:25
Christmas. Absolutely.
53:27
We will see you before then. Yeah, for sure.
53:29

53:32
That'd be really fun. It would be on the 25th
53:36
Christmas Day. That's crazy.
53:40
We'll see. Maybe we'll have Krampus and
53:42
Saint Nick on the podcast. I I should have known.
53:45
Every year my birthday is on the same day of the week as
53:47
Christmas. Yeah, same as New Year's.
53:51
New Year's is also on a Thursday.
53:52

53:57
my opinion. I was planned.
54:01
I'm God's. Gift to dessert.
54:03
Your Krampus was This is also the year of self obsession.
54:08
Yeah, Hell yeah. Absolutely really like fight.

54:14
Life's too short to be, you know, to not think you're hot
54:18
shit, to not think you're hot shit, to be doubting yourself.
54:20
Like just never fucking go out and do it.
54:23
Do it. And I'm going to get into the
54:24

54:41
Blasphemy is the song Blasphemy by Divina Blasphemia?
54:47
I don't think I've recommended it.
54:50
Anyways, love that song. Speaking on Wicked, I'm going to
54:53
recommend a song that's not on Wicked but it's by Ariana Grande
54:56
and it is Twilight Zone. I think it's stuck in the 12 the
55:01
music video. So yeah, think you recommended
55:03
that one. Abducted by aliens?
55:05
Yep, this is the one you recommended to me.
