- 0:31Speaker 5: People are hungry and they're starting to circle the kitchen.
- 0:34Speaker 3: That's true.
- 0:35Speaker 5: You know, if you have a bunch of guests and
- 0:36Speaker 5: you don't want to wait till nighttime, you can eat
- 0:40Speaker 5: and then watch the big games, you know, and then
- 0:43Speaker 5: have more drinks and have fun.
- 0:45Speaker 1: I love that and eat assert later.
- 0:47Speaker 3: Why always saw hungry on Thanksgiving?
- 0:49Speaker 4: Like like any other day, you know, you have your
- 0:51Speaker 4: breakfast and you might have luncheon, then you have dinner
- 0:54Speaker 4: at regular times.
- 0:54Speaker 3: But how come on Thanksgiving you just be hungry so early.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Because it's all types of food you smell of. It's
- 1:00Speaker 2: just not regular fool. But I'm not mad at the
- 1:02Speaker 2: two o'clock. I'm gonna tell you why. When when I
- 1:04Speaker 2: used to go to things giving a grandma's house right then,
- 1:06Speaker 2: it was about five o'clock, right and the whole family
- 1:09Speaker 2: would have to drive there from different places of the
- 1:11Speaker 2: of the country to get to grandma's house. So we
- 1:13Speaker 2: had dinner at five. But when I started doing things
- 1:16Speaker 2: given at my house, I did it at two o'clock,
- 1:19Speaker 2: really because I get tired early. So after two o'clock,
- 1:22Speaker 2: you have breakfast and you can sit back, you play spade,
- 1:24Speaker 2: you watch the football game, you can relax, you can
- 1:27Speaker 2: go back for more, or you can pass it.
- 1:28Speaker 4: And you don't want people in your house all times
- 1:30Speaker 4: at night. You know what I'm saying exactly, because by
