Yes? Did I trop? I think you fell asleep like for maybe one minute? Are you okay? Yes? He was too busy writing down thanksgiving them I know, which is actually what was happening. I knew it. Yeah. I hate to give it to Laura on this one because you know I'm
a big Eric fan. But now let me just well misunderstood the assignment. Look, I text both of them, and I said, this is what we're gonna do for our Thanksgiving show. We're going to write a letter about what we're thankful for. Uh, okay, do you, Brian, You do it how you want to do it. Eric, you do you. I'll do me however you want to do it. Eric thought he saw the word list to Thanksgiving a thankful list. That's fine too, though, you know what, do whatever you want. But but now he's like, oh,
I'll write it during the show. I'm like, that means you're not going to be listening to anything that I say. Or Brian says, oh, I listened to everything. Brian says, it's Thanksgiving. Come on, and I'm thankful for one of the people here. Eric, I'm thankful for you. I'm thankful for you too. Yeah yeah, right, okay, Now I can add it to my list real quick. Here we go. I I am not returning that love right now, happy, not right now in the freezer again. No, you're not in the freezer right I am.
There's a whole other level to this whole freezer. No, there's another level that I haven't done. Wipe your butt with someone, But I haven't done that. See what happens you should Eric. No, No, that I forgot what that means. That like like it, I would just look like a chocolate amm No. Like Okay, when you pee on that, you're supposed to dominate that person. When you put them in the freezer, they're supposed to leave you alone when you wipe your butt with them. I
don't know what that means. I think it's something you're with their ship anymore. Okay, I'm all right, I'm gonna put your fixture out tonight. You better not. Oh Michael, Oh my god, are you just gonna hey, are you just gonna cut out by my face and put it in the toilet bowl? Is that? What? Great idea? Like a like a target? O'h rin out a couple? Because I have to keep going anyway. All right, here's my host, Chad just it's a couple of
interesting factoids about Thanksgiving and the holidays. Guess how much the average person gains during these two months? Six pounds? Uh way between which months? November December? Yes? Oh, probably like eight to ten eight pounds this year over the holidays. That's up. That's up from five point five pounds for last year. America is getting fatther No way. People say that they are postponing being healthy till twenty twenty four. That's yeah, people do that.
They say every year. I know you will have on average twenty six cookies in these two months, twelve slices of pie and thirteen cupcakes on average, it's gonna be way less pie and way more cookies. Yeah, if you are a plumber, or if you are eat of a plumber, don't wait. Because they don't call Friday after Thanksgiving black Friday. They call it brown Friday. Gross. They say that it's the busiest day of the year for plumbers, the day after thanks gross. But it's a bunch of different house
serious Roto Router. For an example, one company gets fifty percent more calls than average the day after Thanksgiving Brown Friday. Gross. That's so disgusting. And do you think it's technically possible for your stomach to actually explode if you eat too much? Didn't you see the movie seven? Oh yeah, that was a good glutton The Glutton. Yeah, they say it could, Yes, it's possible, yes, but the lining of your stomach is thick,
and before any of that happens you puke. Your body naturally gets rid of it. So that's a safeguard, but it could happen, so you know, come on, and the top foods that leave us feeling how do you say, a little backed up? Cause constipation? Here are the foods that cause constantine. Mashed potatoes, no, yes, potatoes, yes, potatoes? Sorry? Is one of chocolate pumpkin pie, which none of us like, yu, fudge, sugary candies. That's why I'm going poop more late,
more than ever lately, because I gave up. I told you, I told you. That was never a like a surprise, I know, but like it. I've become very aware of it. Now. She poops like a racehorse. Well, don't go that far. Stuffing ham No, and rack of lamb. No, lamb is great. Chocolate, milk, non alcoholic eggnog hot chocolate, I hate great, especially with alcohol. You guys insanegnog malicious? Eggnog is disgusting. You ever had vodka? Dog? What do they call it? That's a good one? Or horse shatta?
I like? I like horn shata. I got you into you did. Vodka is really good too. Well, you keep that to yourself. I'm just a shit. You don't have to drink it. I'm just shure, you're just in your opinion, it's very good. What about espress? Have you had? Have you had an espresso martini? Uh? No, I haven't. Actually, well that'll clog you up apparently, and alcoholic eggnog too, and peppermint Martini's espresso martini actually have alcohol? Or is that just a
cloak wheal term. It's like, is that actually like with alcohol? Yeah, because martini is just straight like vodka basically, So it's like coffee and vodka. That's just that's just spiked coffee. It's that's gross. And do you care about what the popular the most popular baby names are for twenty twenty three? Let me guess twenty twenty three, Yes, for this whole year. I came out this year that who like who? I'll give you the top ten girls and the top ten boys. Is Sydney one of the girl
once? No, okay, you want to start, Let's start with the boys. Okay, So it's goes Lucas number ten, Luca Luca, then ezra O, Leo, Levi, right, Lucas Mateo, No Elijah Okay, Oliver is number three? All right, Noah is number one, and then Liam is number two. Those are all cute name. I know a couple of mateos that were just born. I know Mateo. I know a thirteen year old Mateal. I like that name.

I love Olivia is a beautiful name. All right, So do you have a host chat or were we going to go right into our thankful list? I did have a host chat, but then I talked about it last week. Okay, So I talked about both my host chats last week you mean this week this? I mean this week today. I
talked about that also on Tuesday. All right. So what we're going to do now is we're just going to tell what we're thankful for, because this is the time of year where we give thanks. Okay, it is so, I mean, I kind of wanted to end the segment, but you guys apparently want me to start it. So Brian get up here. You have to join the family. We're a family. It's thanks like it or not. You're in my letter two, by the way, my three page
letter, but it'll go by fast. Did you like the little photo montage that I put together for you and told the things I love about you? Yes? You like that? Oh my god, look on our Instagram. It's so cute and I did one for you. I loved it. Yeah, it was really cute. I loved it. I loved yours too. But I don't poop once a month. You know how many comments I got about that people worried about me. I'm like, he kind of exaggerated on that one a little bit. I love the fact that you I more than
once a month. People were really concerned and everybody was concerned for your welfare. But I love the fact that because it always provides a good story. Oh wait, Brian, Yes, okay, I'll go turn on the music because there's like fun little music. Not fun, but it's like touching music that I purposely loaded for this segment. Oh boy, are you going to cry? Brian? Are you going to cry? I might cry. That's too loud. That's too loud, Not that loud, Jesus, too loud.
Lower lower, I know that's good. Is this going to make me cry? No, I just thought we should have some production value. That's all. Shut up. I knew you'd say that. Let me start off like this, and I'm sure all parents can relate. I am so very thankful that my kids don't have and never have had cancer. Now this is pretty serious right off the bat, but that has been my mantra ever since
I've had children. When times are bad, when my day sucks, when my life is hard or things seem hopeless, I always, always, always remember that my kids don't have cancer, and for that reason, I'm the lucky parent on the planet, and that I have no problems at all. It's the worst thing a parent can hear. So my heart goes out to you. If your child is suffering, I truly hold you close. I am also very thankful for this two story duplex that I have lived in for
close to eleven years. This is my home. I love it. I drive by people who have no roof over their heads on a daily basis, and I'm reminded of just how lucky I am to have shelter. I'm grateful that I decided to apply to San Diego State University when I was eighteen years old. At the last minute, that decision changed the trajectory of my entire life. I met my first love. I married him four years later. We produced two fantastic human beings. One of those humans, the male one
named Charlie, almost didn't make it right out of the womb. I'm thankful that, after three surgeries and countless doctors' visits, Charlie is now a healthy, happy, six foot four, beautiful, twenty three year old man engaged to a beautifully unique, an artistic woman who loves him almost as much as I do. Sorry, Amiyah. A mother's love is the strongest superpower in the world. I'm also thankful that Evan made it back to Fordham University for
her sophomore year. It didn't look like she was gonna go the week before she left. God is very good. This has been a hard semester for her so far, but she's upbeat. She's studying like crazy. She appreciates her college experience more than any other student at that university. I guarantee it. I'm so thankful for Stacy, my best friend since I was three years old. To have a friend like her is a gift from above. She knows me better than anybody on this earth. Her father just passed away last
week. Mister Drake, I am happy, though, that you are now reunited with your dear wife, Missus Drake in heaven. Thankful does not begin to explain my feelings toward my mom. I apologie to you and to you, Brian, but I was blessed with the very best one on the face of the earth. She's truly in the dictionary the definition of what a mom is. I'm also thankful that she is as spry and healthy as she is for eighty two years old. I can't wait to see her on Thursday.
Hug well today, Hug the heck out of her. Jenny and Eric, my siblings. How thankful am I to grow up with you? You made my childhood idyllic? And how crazy is this? My mom? Stacy, Jenny, Eric, my brother Eric from another mother all have red hair, and if I didn't die mine it would be a little red too. Oh my god. So I'm thankful for bleach right. Actually, oh, I have a red spot that comes out when I don't bleach my hair. To the people who take the time to listen to this podcast, I'm so incredibly
thankful. You make it possible for us to do this every week, to laugh, to tease, to inform, to cry, to share, to scream, to smile, all the things that we do on the show, to cough. I am thankful we have this platform to share our lives with you. We hope you find our show a fun escape, and I hope that we help people along the way, because that's why we do this. Eric, dude, what can I say? You've never left my side in seventeen years, and for that, I'm so thankful. I could go on
and on about how you've changed my life for the better. Don't ever leave me ever, I promise, or I will shrivel up and die. No, because your eggs already did that. In my house, we are so living together. In twenty years. We are same bed in everybody. Eight years, ten years we were where were we where we were deciding on a couch? No, we're going to be in a bed together now. Didn't we think we'd have more room on the couch like an ell couch, a big one? Okay, all right, Hey, this is during thank you
letter. I love you, infinity Infinity Brian, Oh my god, am I ever happy? That I'm your podcast, hey, that I spent that two hundred dollars putting it out on indeed, in hopes of finding a producer for our show. You've been nothing but reliable, supportive, friggin' great at what you do, and thank you for helping us grow this baby that Eric and I created together. I'm also very thankful that God puts you with us because you cannot teach or buy chemistry. It just happens, and we all
have that this is luck. But don't get it twisted. You annoy me sometimes with your snide remarks, but I know that you kid because you love oh yeah love who yeah Eric? That is true, and I do love it when you tease me. But you can stop with the financial and drug power stuff. Okay. You know I haven't made fun of you for that for a while, but you don't need to to bring that up anymore. I'm well now I want to because your young wiver snaber, I will restue
you to the ground in front of this camera. I'm dead serious. Maggie, Javier, Jody, Kimberly, Penny, Amy, Vanessa, Gina, Marie, Madeline, Jen Jay Hotly, Megan, Tommy, Randy, Jeff jere Emily Rudy, Monique, but Beatrice, Faith, David, Dave Kane. The list is endless for the people I'm thankful for in my life. And Elvis, my sweet Pekinese baby, What a joy you've brought to my
life. And above all, I'm thankful for my sobriety, and for the recovery community, and for those who have supported me along this long, twisted, forked, crooked, outstanding, lucky, exciting, blessed ride called my life. The words grateful and thankful mean more to me this year than ever, and I hope and pray that everyone shares Thanksgiving with family, blood family, or the family that they have chosen, love one another and live with a grateful heart, and all will be. Okay. Please stop me now,
or I'll go on forever. Okay. I love you guys very much. I love you, I really do. Brian, Brian, look at me, Brian, look at me, Brian, look at me. I love you, Yeah, every single word. Yeah. Well, now the assignment that I gave you, guys, that one of you didn't do well. I did do the assignment, all right, No, he did. I able to string it out. You did it in your own way, and that's fine. I did I do. So who wants to go next? Wait? I got to start the music again. I think, do
you want to go next? Or do you want me to go next? I'm not dealing with these music, So you going okay? Oh okay, No, it's gonna ruin the vibe. Plus it gets boring off the sixth minute place, so I won't be going on for six minutes you refuse to go on? Brian, who goes next? I'm gonna go next? Okay? So I, like you, am also very thankful for my life, for my health. You know, I did the Cancer Walk last weekend,
and it really I lost my mom to cancer. And I'm going to talk about it on an upcoming show because December first is very very hard for me because that's when I lost my mom to cancer, to bring cancer, and so there's been some new things happening in my life that have brought it even closer. Uh so once again, so that something I'm very grateful for is that I don't I am very blessed that I have not had to go through
that journey after seeing people that I love go through it. So I'm so thankful for my health, I'm also thankful for my chosen family and friends. I've been very blessed that I've had lifelong friends that I've known since I was a kid. You are, and then also meeting you in my life, and then through you meeting some of these wonderful women that you know. And then of course Brian our Son here, Yeah, your son, you are. You are a great guy. And for being twenty two years old,
you were so twenty three. I mean twenty. I don't even know how old our son is. I'm whatever age Eric wants me to be. Twenty two great. This is getting sick because he is wise, he's smart, wise beyond his ears, and he has a very good head on his shoulders, and he's always here. He's always here, never liable, and he
thinks that everything I say is a hoot. It's kind of obnoxious. But anyway, I am very grateful in this time of being so many people being unsure of where their next meal is going to come from and how they're going to pay their rent. I'm very lucky that I have not one, but two jobs that I enjoy. My main job, I have two of the best bosses that I anybody could ever ask for. And I have a great crew that I work with and that I like going to work with every day.
It's always different, it's always a challenge, but I love them and I love the company I work for. And then this podcast asked you guys seriously talk about it. I love you both like you guys are awesome. What's the thing you love about Brian the most? That he's He's got a great sense of humor. It's very dry, which I love. What is that he's very reliable for sure? Anything sum a delight, that's for sure. And the feelings mutual. What do you love about me the most?
Everything? I love? Number one, how honest you are. I love how you stick to your convictions and how you have kept your sobriety no matter what has happened, right, and it's been a lot. And I really like the fact that you don't put up with a lot of shit from people. Not no, not anymore except ours, right yeah, but yeah, yeah, yeah, but only we're both delights. I know, because I know you guys love me, and I know Bryan love I would take you. I know you would. I totally would. I wouldn't. I know
he probably wouldn't, but I know you still love me. He would get a paper cup for you, maybe step on a lego for her. Okay, that's a pain that has no limit. And then, like you said, to everybody that listens and watches, we wouldn't be doing this if you guys didn't tune in. Otherwise it would be kind of weird if we just sat here for everybody in particular. So everything you guys say, your comments, you guys just tuning in to say hi, it really touches me.
Makes a difference. That's the reason we do it. So thank you. And I am thrilled to have a very nice roof over my head. Oh yeah, not that I never did before, but this one is exceptional. Yeah, I really like this one. Yeah, you're happy, it's very nice. I'm very happy. And to anybody out there struggling with I mean, mental illness, right now is just an all time high. And I just read a survey that said that they don't even have enough like therapists to
go around for all these really young kids and stuff. So you know, I'm I'm just very thankful that once again I haven't had to I don't even know what that would be like to be a young kid, because that's really who they were saying. It affects most just with COVID and everything that's been going on, is it's really affecting young kids right now horribly, and just now there's better options out there. Nothing has to be drastic, So just talk to people, talk to you friends, reach out to us, Yeah,
reach out to us. But I'm very thankful and grateful at this time of year. Thank you. Okay, Brian, I'm going to put the music. No, No, I don't want the music. I can't stand that music. Really, I really, I'm not really, I'm not thankful for the music. Can she put it on at a lower volume? No, it's it's it's awful. Plus we've heard it two full times. Oh
my god, you are impossible. But I can tell you anything I'm thankful for, all right, all right, okay, okay, okay, okay, all right, no music, no music, all right, okay. In no particular order, there are lots of things I'm thankful for, although Laura may want you to think otherwise. First and foremost, I'm thankful for the things we all take for granted. Number one, my health as a twenty three year old guy who hasn't been to the doctor in fifteen years because
I've had zero medical issues. Oh my god, that's making me. Yeah, it's really nice, and you know, that's probably something I take for granted. I'm thankful for my family, the ones that are near and far. You know, you really, especially when you don't live close to them, you appreciate them all the more. I am. I'm thankful for the
freedom we have in this country. I think Thanksgiving is a big a good time to reflect on a lot of things, and one of them being since it is, you know, closely tied to the founding of our country, I think Thanksgiving, which predates it, is a good time to remember that we delive in a pretty great place, and that's something to be thankful for because not everyone has that. I am thankful for my job. It's nice
to make money. I enjoy it. And a lot of people don't have job, or it pays next to nothing, or they don't like it. So oh wow, someone's allergic to my thankfulness. This is why I'm so sorry. I am thankful for my significant other. She is great and I love her so much, So thankful for her. I see. I am thankful for my second job as a waiter at the McDonald's by my house just
Wednesdays and Thursdays. You catch me on the six to ten shift. I just take out the trash and sometimes I dress up as Ronald McDonald for the kid's birthday parties in the playgrounds. Terrible chop done to it. Just kidding. I am thankful for this podcast, and that was so dumb. But I'm really excited about what he's about to say about the podcast. And he's probably now not going to say anything. No, no, no, I'm going to continue excited. I am thankful for this podcast. I'm also thankful
for or movies. That's all you're gonna say about this. I am thankful that I get to work with two legends who constantly name drop and make me feel bad about myself, and I hope to leverage their connections into something greater one day. So I use us for sure, Yeah, I am. I am looking for the opportunity of using and abusing them. Absolutely, No, I I support that. That's fine. I do enjoy coming here on Mondays for a couple of hours, even if it's sometimes late at night,
and shooting this ship with a bunch of old what's the worthy fogies. Yeah, a couple old fogies. You're old my parents. But it's a good time. It is kind of weird, isn't it. I feel like I'm hanging out with people younger than me, so it's true we act younger than he does. Maybe I was gonna say, oh, thankful for movies. There is a lot of movies I'm thankful for. I love watching movies.
So which movie are you most thankful for? Rare's Lost Art? Okay, A couple of movies I just saw I'm thankful for If you guys haven't seen the new Dungeons and Dragons movie, even if you have no idea what that means, which mean neither, it's actually really good. It's a great comedy movie. Check that out. Anyways, we'll move on from there. I'm thankful for Keanu Reeves, who I hope to meet soon. Oh, by the way, I have an update. Holy Okay, okay, okay,
Oh you can't say that Thanksgiving? Okay, all right, anyway, I'm gonna no, Actually, let's pause for a second here, Eric, please share with us your update, because I'm not going to get through the rest of my list about I got a text and something might be coming in the mail for Brian. You said that like three months to go. No, this is something very special for Christmas. What about me? About you? You're you're getting listen, you're getting a shipload from They will make up for
the lack of Keanu in your life. The tin gifts. Keanu is supposed to be sitting right, God, why are you pointing your crotching boobs when you here he's supposed to Did you see what you did? I am working on that. I didn't mean to do that, but I meant to say, like he's supposed to be like here. When you do that, where something that's coming in the mail. You can't mail a person, Okay. Anyway, we got an update. That's all that matters. Okay, So
looking forward to that. Mister Reeves, if you're watching this, I hope you send him the links to these so he can hear my pleading. Mister Reeves, if you're watching, I'd love to meet you. If we hit it off, maybe you'll like you to my wedding. I definitely will, he would, he would come. Yeah, even if we don't hit off, you're definitely can. So just let me know what's a good address. To send it to me to be I'm going to get my online ministers,

You'd rather have Eric marry you than me? Yeah, and your girlfriend would rather have Eric mary you guys than me. Yeah. What we hit it off? Well, you can sing at the wedding. I will not sing if Kean reeves come though, Keanu will be officiating
