#298 I Love A Parade

out from him Wednesday morning. Noah and I found out in a text that he was not, um, gonna be doing the show anymore. And it was sudden for sure, But you know, like everything sudden. I don't like when people go like, this is the first time hearing of this, and it's like, well, there's a first for everything, so at some point you got to hear something for the first time. So when people go we with a sudden,

it's like, well, everything's gonna be everything. There's always like a pre conversation that's going on before you get the news. You're not always a part of every conversation. And so, um, this was something that I feel like, Noah, you and I kind of maybe saw it coming, just didn't know

what was going to happen so fast. Um, Andrew definitely is you know, coming into his own as an artist and as a comedian and doing more things like in his own name, with his own name, and it's it's hard to make a name for yourself on a show that doesn't have your name on it, and it's he's he kind of we would say, outgrew the show and is onto bigger and I hope literally hope better things for him. And so that was kind of what happened.

And there was a lot of things behind the scenes that I'm not going to get into that lead to this decision that you know, are not anything like so juicy or sorted that I'm high from you guys. You know, there's definitely things that um, you know, there's like there's maybe slight drama behind the scenes, but it's nothing that is like he deserves your speculation or your you know, um choosing a side or anything like that. It's an

extraordinary really it isn't. And you know, you're like, well, then why don't you tell us it's because well, I can't tell you because there's things that are going on in Andrew's life that I think led to this decision that is up to him to disclose, um, regarding his future and what he wants to do with his life. Yeah, and um, and so yeah, he's not on the show anymore. And it sucks. I mean, I totally feel your pain everyone who has expressed that. I gotta say, I haven't

really gotten into the comments on either. The post that I posted on our Instagram that was just thanking you guys for nice messages, not only about Andrew leaving, but including um, you know, just sympathetic message is not nice, not like go Nikki, no Andrew, nothing like that, just like people being like sorry for this one down or

whatever you said. Um, I was just addressing that. And also people, I'm doing the podcast once a week now, so a lot of people wrote and we're like, do what you need to do a girl, like we are there for you. So I was just addressing that. And then there's so many comments um flooded in on both of that, and I know Andrew's post right, and um, I looked at the comments just out of curiosity. A lot of people are wondering if you and Andrew are

going to remain friends after this. That's that's been a big question, and I think ye, Well, from my perspective, I feel like we and this happens a lot in professional relationships, the friendship kind of deteriorates, especially since we haven't been in the same city, we haven't been on

tour together, we don't live together anymore. I mean this podcast started when we were like living together, and so or friendship wasn't as strong as it has been in the past already, and this, you know, I think we're both like equally a little bit like bruised on each side, but it doesn't um take away from like the love that we have for each other. So there's no like I am never going to talk to him again, and like I look forward to a time when we can go back to the way it was and just be

like best friends again. But right now it's just not It's not like we're like psyched to hang out together, and we weren't even really hanging out together before aside from doing the show. So it kind of is a natural extension of what was. Nothing's really going to change except he was not doing a podcast together. I'll miss so much about him. I will miss um, just his silly commentary, his hilarious one liners, the way his brain thinks. I'll miss his I'll miss his laugh so much. Mom,

we get a weeeze going on always like Snuffy Smith laugh. Well, you'll still hear it on the Reddit dump. When we do Reddit dump, You'll still heroes laugh at the end. There. People said today that we took that out. We did not take that. Um. We took him out of the um intro on the YouTube because since he doesn't work for the show anymore, we can't legally use his image. So that's the only reason it wasn't because we're like,

we're cutting you out of the show. We're not going to do the thing that happens on Howard Stern sometimes when people leave, where he just never speaks of them again, like they don't exist, and they never did exist. Andrew is still a part of our world. Andrew and I made so many inside jokes on the show. I am mourning the loss of my co host as much as you're mourning the loss of the co host of your

you know, hopefully favorite podcast. I totally understand if you're feeling frustrated, let down, um not into the show as much, like kind of like I don't want to listen anymore, and like all those feelings that come up whenever something changes about a show you love, like I as a fan of podcasts, as a fan of TV, as a fan of just entertainers, I hate when things change. I hate when you know, even seeing Dave Matthews Man, Boyd Tinsley, you know on the violin, he like had a whole thing.

He was the violinist for Dave Matthews Man and he was extraordinary, really made what Dave Matthews band like sounds like what that that he gave that sound to it. There's like strings going on in the songs. And I went to go see him live, and I'm like, man, I miss Boyd Tinsley, even though he was let go because he like allegedly was trying to have sex with

underage kids or something. Now they brought into symphony at one part, but like there was no there was no violence, there's no fill in, and I was like, I need that violin and there's a flavored two Boyd's playing that I don't think really could be replicated by anyone else. So there was something in it missing for me that goes this isn't the same as like it doesn't sound the same as the album. So there is gonna be changes about the show. There's gonna be things you miss,

without question, it would be weird if there weren't. They're gonna miss certain dynamics of us, whether it was good things or bad things. Like we brought it all here, we had gotten in arguments on the show, we had expressed our love for onenever, we made up, we laughed hysterically together, like I will miss all of that as well. And I definitely acknowledge everyone saying how disappointed they are and how sad they are. I felt that way when

Andy Richter and Conan separated. I felt that I would have felt that way if I had lived through Art, Garfunkele and Paul Simon. I would have been so upset about that, even though you know when things move on, you get used to the new thing. And I don't mean to treat this like your mommy and daddy aren't living in the same house anymore. But you'll still have

two Christmas is. The thing is, you will get to Christmas, is Andrew, I'm sure we'll be starting either you know, puddles, he'll pick up again or he will do a new reiteration of that. So you will get two Christmas as you can. We still have podcasts. One more really funny episode coming up with Andrew on Wednesday. It is true. We pre taped an episode that is so funny coming

up on Wednesday. UM, so you will hear that. So you get to this week and though I'm just doing one for the rest of the week, but we pre tape that one, so you have one more episode with mommy and Daddy, um still together under the same house. UM. So yeah, I think that's addresses everything. We will we are like, we're just we just need a period of

like we just decided to end this. And you know, in a relationship, when you break up with a boyfriend or a girlfriend, um, you know, everyone's like, are you guys still gonna be friends? You guys lived, you were best friends. That's why it was fun. So weird about breakups as you go from like being in love and sleeping in the same bed to like we're never talking again.

And the thing is the best relationships that break up because it's just a conflict of um of like of interest of like why I want kids and you don't, or I want to move, I want to be close to my parents and you don't want. It's something like that where it's like we love each other, but it's just this one thing that's kind of like it was with me and Andrew. It's like it's I think it's

just more circumstantial. This is the healthier thing for your friendship, Yes, in the long run, but like a relationship that just split, we're gonna need some time to not be f We just need some time on our own to like figure out who we are on our own and let kind of the I mean, it was very it was traumatic last week, I want to say, for for me and I'm sure for him to um to both go through this like major life change and for him to leave the show. I mean that's a big change in his life.

So i feel for him and whatever he's going through. And I'm glad he has a support system in his family and his girlfriend and all of you guys who are fans who are writing to him. So, um, yeah, we will be friends again. You'll see each of us hanging out at some point again, but not on this podcast. And I hope you still listen, and if you don't, totally understand, but the show will go on. And I don't want you to think that whoever Mommy brings in

here to have a place Andrew. There's no literally no plan, I promise you. Um. The show was already going to change a lot, I think, UM in the new year. I think I was going to take this time. We were going to take this time of doing one episode a week to reevaluate what we like, what we don't like, and then in that time of taking it once a week,

something big happen. So now we're revamping everything and there will be changes to the show, but they will be all in the best interest of you, the listener, and us to be having as much fun as possible on the show. So if I have someone in that's new and you're like, and he's sitting in Andrew's chair and you're like, this guy is not Andrew, please be just know that he's not Andrew. I'm not replacing there's no co host. I'm not auditioning co host. There's nothing like

that happening. There's there's no need to weigh in on my guests. I'm going to be having here. I honestly, well, I want to do here today because I was gonna have my friend Bobby and who I'm going to have it at some point. But I told Bobby I was like he was booked before Andrew quit. And so I told Bobby, hey, I don't want Sands to like think that you might be a replacement and there, and I know that I would hate you if I was a Sner just being a new guy sitting in Andrew's chair.

So I was like, let's bring in someone that everyone already has a lot of affection for, including me. Some days. Um, it's my mom, Julie Glazer, how are you? I'm good. Yeah, you're feeling a little under the weather. Yeah, I have like a little throat issue and a little cough. You know when you said that to me coming over? You wrote to me and you go, do you have any throat tea? And I'm like, this, bitch got COVID? Are you bringing COVID? I gotta sing the national anthem in

two days? You know that? Right? Or three days? Did you kiss me? No? Julie's facing the opposite direction of the turn the other way. Give the wall COVID. That won't need something on it anyway and got his racket. Think I have COVID, but I was kind of looking up coughing and oh yeah, oh so you have a dry cough. You're you have a headache? Do you have a headache? And I'm not sane. Oh my god, my mom's giving me COVID and I just sing the national anthem.

You know what, it doesn't You could have told me with COVID and like active COVID and you're like, I would have still had you come over, because I just did not want to do this podcast with like no one here. Um so, I'm so glad you're Yeah, I won't breathe on you. And if I get COVID, there's an excuse for if I sound horrid on Thursday. You know, so this morning, I um so, I'm singing I'm the Grand Marshal of the St. Louis Thanksgiving Day parade. Um

right on Thursday. Yes, so I'm gonna be on a float and that it's not going to get any action that day. Yeah, my mom. We I just got word today that my family gets to be on a trolley behind me. Ding ding ding dinging. Meet me in St. Louis, Meet me, at the fair. Love a Parade? Yeah, what is it from? You always said that as a kid from I Love a Parade. He's from Annie Mayme or something. Oh yeah. Everything you guys quoted back then was from that movie that I've never seen. I've never seen it.

We're watching it. Your favorite movie is Funny Girl? Right? That used to be why not? What's it now? Suck too? Anti? No? What is your real favorite movie? I think Funny Girl? Funny Girl was anything recent you've seen that really? Not just sex now. I just always like The Godfather, you know, that's classics. I've never seen it. You know, I met Met Coppola, I know, I know. Do you know who got that role? What do you mean who got that role? Um? The role that I went out for? Oh no, yeah,

um Chloe Feinneman. She's the girl who does She's the blonde girl in SNL who does amazing impressions. Oh my god. I am just thrilled to lose that role to her because I knew it was going to go. He was

looking for a comedian. That was the vibe, and I was just like, just don't let it be a stand up, you know, because I would have felt like man he did want to stand up and I didn't get it when Judd apata was casting funny people for the role of Seth Rogan's girlfriend or the girl that she's a comedian in the movie, and she's like, you know, one of the ones they're friends with the script you know, his babysitting for job Judd Apatow at the time for Iris and Maud, and I saw scripts of funny people

laying out and I read one of them, or I saw maybe I saw like the I heard that they that Judd was going around comedy clubs. This is is before Judd was back doing stand up and he was going to comedy clubs to look for stand up comics for this role. And it was a twenty five year old girl and the scene you read for the audition she was a Wilco fan. And at the time all I wore was Wilco shirts because I was trying to attract a man who liked Wilco. I manifested it. It's Chris

loves Wilco. But I still wear a lot of Wilco stuff. Loves you already wearing it. Chris, Now we got him, got him. I should started wearing all the things he loves F one racing. He went to see Elton John last night. I know in St. Louis, no in Los angele Um, we have a lot to talk about, but I wanted to say there's a couple of things. I went to hie up Okay, so funny people. I heard he was looking for a comedian and so I don't even know if I told the story on on this podcast.

I wrote to him and asked for an audition, and I was like, I would never use my role in your life as your babysitter ever to look for I would never. I never took this job to get anything from you in any way, and I really did it. And I was like, but there is a role in your movie. That is who I am, a twenty five year old struggling stand up comedian who loves Wilco. And I was like, I can't not ask for an audition, and he gave me one and I didn't get it.

But when it went to Roberty Plaza, I was so happy because she wasn't a stand up and I was like, oh good, and Chloe Fineman, I was like, Okay, at least it's not a stand up. When Taylor Swift. Swift put a bunch of comedians in her music video for Anti Hero, one of which was Mike Bigilia, a stand up. I was still happy it wasn't a female stand up. I want to be the first female stand up in our video. Um, but he is in that video. Did you know Mike Probiglia is in Taylor Swift video? My friend?

I might have heard, but yeah, he's in a lot of things. He's in a lot of things on Broadway right now. But your your favorite movie Funny Girl? You always used to tell me that was your favorite movie. I remember my doctor abuse of my therapist, may my abuse, Well, I say my abusive therapist so much that no Noah one day was like, it sounds like her name is Maya abusive, and so I call her doctor abusive. Um so dtr abusive. She she one day was like, you

know what you need to see Funny Girl? And I was like, really, that's my mom's favorite movie I've never seen and she was like, this is that's the story of your life right now? And I was like, what is the story of my life? And she was like that a man's trying to shape who you are and it's just going to steal who you are and exploit you. And I was just like, this really isn't what's happening at all in my relationship. You're not listening, but kind

of not not at all. She didn't. Whenever she would ever weigh in all my relationships, I'd be like, you're way out of line, and then she'd go and you're not a beauty, and I'd go that that you're on the money. She was like, yeah, she would. She she was awful. I never said anything about her. You say stuff about her now. But do you know, she wrote me the other night, you're kidding. I had not talked to her. Did I talk about this on Aaron Yes, yeah, already.

Well I'll tell my mom. I had not talked to her in six years, and she wrote to me, watch, uh what was the show? It was like something Mother's Bad Moms or something watch Terrible Mother, Bad Moms, or something like some show about working moms work Watch Working Moms, It's all, it said, cryptic in the middle of the night. I was in Atlanta, had just flown there to shoot a show, and I've gotten in town. It's like two

o'clock in the morning. But she's on the West Coast, like eleven o'clock where she is and I and I wrote on my Instagram what does this mean? And I think it's just she's just like this is a funny show. Nikki should do something like this. Yeah, she was always telling me I'm not funny, So she was trying to direct weirdo who goes to someone like that? Why didn't you pick up on that long time? Because you don't. This is the whole when people go why do you stay with him if he beat you? Why do you

stay with him if he's mean? Because it's a cycle of abuse. They convince you that your ship and that you already think your ship. So if they keep doing it, you feel like they know you more than anyone. And she would call me and say, I'm the only one who loves you. Oh my guy, shout out to wait, how long did you go to We probably go to break five years. I gotta go to break three four or five four years probably. But I got a lot

of good stuff from her, I really did. I took the good and took the bat and I got a good story and I learned a lot. I probably would have been swindled again had it not happened to me. I'm I'm grateful for it. I'm grateful for all the things that go wrong in my life. You look back and you go, oh, well, that was a good lesson. Not everything, but pretty much everything. Let's go to break and because it is it's Thanksgiving. We'll talk about Thanksgiving

a little bit more when we get back. All right, we're back. My mom's got a tickle in her throat. She's coughing off air. My mom is blasting COVID all over this small, tiny room. What are you nervous for me to sing the national anthem? I have a feeling you are. No. I have full confidence you can nail. All I can think about is when I go for that high note at the end, that's like in the Land of the Free, that one, Yeah you got it. Well,

you know that was off. You don't know what key I'm going to do it, and that could have been a lower key. I want to do it in the highest key. I can do it just because I'm keep whatever I practice I go. My mom is going to freak out thinking she's gonna be anticipating anticipated you'll anticipate it. Yeah, yeah, I know your very word, and I can't wait to hit that note and have you just go, Oh, thank god, you're gonna nail it, Nikki. I really should be okay,

it'll be cold outside. I will do my best. I'll tell you this, it won't be like my first pitch. It will be much more like impressive than that. And as someone who's a comedian where everyone goes you are singing the national anthem, I went and did a bunch of news today. That's why I that's why you go. Where are you going? My mom said to me right before we started, what are you dressed up for? But I'm not even dressed up. I just have full makeup

on kind of I did my face. But I went to k m o V channel four, which is where the Thanksgiving Day parade is going to air. You could probably watch it live online if you don't look at St. Louis. I'm making on TV. Yeah, but I'm saying in St. Louis will be on TV. But many people are living in St. Louis. You gotta think outside the books. I feel like they should or anyway, anyway, well, that's that's awesome. And you'll be behind me and in the trolley waving

like you know, uh, miss Americans. Oh yeah you could. I'll sing behind in the trolley when it's well, you know, do you know that the Graham Ben Singer show that I did. Okay, So during that there's on on YouTube, there's me chronicles like my whole voice experience, And I really don't care for the titles of all of them YouTube clips. They really sensationalized. The titles are like Nikki Glazer once her boyfriend to fuck other women. I'm just like news journalism show or it's like, you know, it's

just really like crazy titles. Anyway, um uh in it. When I go get my voice checked on he was there filming the first time I sing, or the first time I talk. So I talk and then my doctors like sing something which I did not. He does that to like Adele. You know, my doctors operated on Adele. So it's interesting to go Adele sings something, but I'm not a singer. But he he knows that my passion

is singing. But I'm embarrassed to sing in front of him because he's used to like Adele, Julie Andrews, like John Mayer on and on so many other clients that I can't even tell you that he had because there's an n d A and I'm not supposed to say hippo or whatever. He's hippo's um and so you should hear them sing. They're great. Hippos are so cute. I'm obsessed with them. And they're so fast. Do you know that they're so fast? The most dangerous animal in the world.

I might believe that. Yeah, I might believe it. There's nothing to might believe. I can either want to or not. And if I want to, then I'll say I might. Um, yeah, hippos are really dangerous. Yeah, I know they could. They're powerful. Yeah know, they're fast as fun though, like they look

really tubby and short. Yeah, they but they on the bottom of if you google this video where there is a hippo chasing a boat and it there's they can get up to, like I think, I mean I'm exaggerating, but I think like in the in the water until they're really people in Africa? Ye into the internet. Yeah a year, will you see how fast they can brought on land and on water? No, as I continue, so, thank you so much for looking up. Um. We just need to know, people need to know we have a

lot of listeners in Africa, not that there's hippos like everywhere. Ever, I think I've seen that before. That's so cool. There's the water, Yeah, in the water one line. Okay, so that's pretty fucking fast. You know how fast do you think humans can run? Yeah? I would say, like, that's probably as much as I would get up to if I was being chased, if like, if I was running from a hippo. So I'm dead, So you're dead. I'm dead within seconds. In seconds and black bears. Don't even

get me started on black bears. That's the scariest one. Bear bears are terrifying. Um, always carry bear spray. I don't care where you are. I think that's a great idea. Um, I got you some for Christmas? Did you go to you should get I would have anything that would protect me from listeners of the world. Chris got me two things of mace. It's time I go. How much do you think I'm going to use? Well, he's just it's

just one for each part of my time. He bought. Yeah, he always buys me mace c ds of the wrapper and that's uh. Chattist say good bad chill, that's pretty good. Bad you're trying to get to one. You could at chattist say hello, but a chill. Yeah, you actually do try to say hello in your show COVID. I've never had COVID. I here, I've never had it. No, I haven't even you think you're a little special. I think you're immune. I think I do. Yeah. I was around

a lot of people this weekend. Well, great news, Okay, I'm sure I don't have it. I am welcome back to our special COVID episode where even no one's going to get it through zoom because my mom's gone. I'm not going to get a teaming with it. Um so Hippo's can run thirty. Oh so, anyway, when the first time I sang on that show, when he was like you can sing now, and so I was just like kind of frazzled, and I go, oh, say can you see? And Anya and Matt you know on you Matt my

tour manager. They laughed so hard when they watched that because they were like, why would she sing that? But they didn't know the context that before that I would been telling him I'm gonna sing the national anthem. I got asked to sing the national anthem and so there's context that but that's that's why so many things on TV like taken out of context. I look insane, just like the first thing I used to say, and I put my hand in my heart, I'm like, oh sake,

can you see? Like that's so insane? Um, But I've been practicing. So when I went into my vocal lesson for oh say, can you see the national anthem? I think it's called yeah, yeah, oh see can you see? Um? It's I it I only we only practice that first part because it's so hard, like this is what you do with like voice lessons. So I was going like, oh say, can you see? Like just that's like she was like, just sing it, like just get through talking or just like get through it, oh, just to make

sure you can hit all the notes. And then you go in and you're like, oh see, can you put the feeling? It's like you go whoa see can you see? And then it's like every single you don't realize in singing, every single word has like a push a poll. And she's also like every single song you sing, do it like you want to fuck someone? Try to make it sound like every song, make it sound like you want to suck someone even like the wheels on the bus

around and round. I don't think I'm just kidding. Don't do that with kids, but oh my god, but I know everybody bitsy spud went up, water spoke like everything's if you made some things sexual, they sound better. Everyone tries to make that their own. I know Chris already told me. He goes, what are you doing to it? And I go, don't worry, I'm not doing any I'm doing a couple of things because no, I'm not gonna fuck you said that. That's what you're singing teachers like,

here's the thing. It's like. So I'm gonna go, like, oh say, can you see by the dawn's early light? What's so? Probably we hail at the twilight's last gleaming. So I'm gonna get through that without any flourish. Who's breast rides and bright stars through the barrel? This fight are the rambots? We watched am I go, we watch? Why are you doing that? Because it's nothing. It makes it a little interesting we watch or so girl inly streaming, I'm not doing any of that. I'm just doing a

little bit of stuff very subtly. Because you don't. It's boring to just listen to it flat. You gotta do, you gotta bring something to Everyone's just crossing their fingers when they hear that song that are they going to make it through? Have you ever not heard someone make it through? Roseanne did it on purpose? He did that on purpose. Oh yeah, I've heard people not released Reese only. I went to an event and um, they brought out this country artist, right, and you think, like country he

would know the national anthem. He started it and then he stopped and he said, guys, I'm really nervous. I'm going to restart, which to that I was like, okay, that's cool. Fact, yeah, good. He wants to do it right, so he restarts it, but he forgets the lyrics midway. He looks at his hat. It looks like he was reading out of his hat, and he still got it wrong. It was so like bad. It was not consting because did you go to a rodeo? What were you at? Where I was at an m M A event? Ma mama?

That makes sense. Um. I love the national anthem. I love when people sing it. It just is a little moment to be patriotic and awesome. But I will say that. My voice teacher said, have the lyrics in front of you, because as much as you think you will like because when you're calm and I'm just singing it in front of her, or singing it right here, it's fine. But you don't know what nerves do to your systems sometimes, and they really are more weird. Yeah, but I'm in

front of you. Yeah, you're not gonna No one's gonna even Moose brought stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight or oh like over but over, or the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming, and the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. O say, does that star spangled banner yet wave for the Land of the Free? Is it for or the land? Or the Land of

the Free and the home of the brave? Going back to making it your around, though, I have a question. Do you like it when UM artists cover other artists and they make it a little bit their own or do you like its sounding exactly like the original? Great question? UM, I like exactly what I just said. I want I want the cover, So if I'm seeing someone in concert, I want to and I know the song, Like say

they're just covering a Taylor Swift song. I want to know that I could sing with them and like sing it and know it because I like to not to sing along, but at least mouth along with it. And I don't want them to do anything with it that is really abandoning it. But I also believe that they should do something a little bit of their own. So for instance, this weekend, I got it was so much fun on the road this weekend. I am I don't know what's happened. Like, first of all, thank you so

much to everyone who comes out. So many fucking besties come out. None of you gave me sh about the Andrew thing. None of you gave me about taking it down to one week. All of you were just excited to see me. You gave me presents. Mom one girl gave me her gloves. I was like, I love your

gloves and she was like, do you want them? And I was like, yes, they're these vintage I don't want to say vintage, but they're like early patagon yet but they're like they don't work on cell phones, so they're like definitely pre two not they fit me their mittens that go over, but then the fingers are cut off. That was in Burlington's. Thank you so much to that girl who mean the fucking gloves off her hands. I love them so much. Then another bestie gave me a

She was a total hilarious person she had. She didn't want picture with me, she just wanted them to film her interaction. So she gave me a a bestie bracelet, UM, and she got one for herself, so we had friendship bracelets. It's in the other room. I haven't put it on yet only because I just it hasn't been in front of my face. So the second it is in front of my face again, and I have an unpacked yet, so don't be hurt if I don't do that. Um. And then the two other girls and that was so nice.

And then two other girls brought me a framed picture of themselves that was signed, and they were like, we thought you'd want a framed picture of butts, and I was like, I love this frame, like I'm definitely gonna take you guys out of this and put in a picture of pot and they laughed at that. But everyone was so nice, and we took pictures and people had you know, best emerge and um, it was just so good to see you guys after like kind of a hard week of like what like does everyone hate me?

What's the podcast going to be? It was just nice to see faces and have no one up and be like kind of like like there's no tinge of like we know something's wrong or like something's going. It was

just like nothing but positivity. But what was really fun was that Anya's boyfriend's Anya's fiance, Matt, my tour manager, his band The Natural Lines open for me and in both Burlington and um Providence, Rhode Island, and they were so good and it was so fun because it was like I got to go see one of my favorite bands performed five songs of theirs that I know by heart I love so much, and they sounded awesome. I mean,

there's five people in a band. It was a big band that you do that you invite them to come, and they asked and I was like, that's actually Matt thought of the idea, and I was like, that's a great idea. And then at the end that Matt's like, and you know, thank you to Nikki. We're going to play one of her favorite Taylor Swift songs and we might need a little help, and so everyone he started play singing anti hero and then I come out and I sang the whole song and then the crowd sings

it because every one knows it nice. Hi, I'm the problem. But um, even with that song, like trying to find something about it that I can make my own is hard. And I'm like, because it's it's not that fun to sing that song like in terms of technique for me, because it's just like, it's me, Hi, I'm the problem. It's me, And that's just like there's no like extended notes where you can play with anything. So given with that, I was trying to go like, it's me, Hi, I'm

the problem. It's me, like trying to like change it a little, yeah, just to give it something that I can play with, because it's just it doesn't suit my voice as well. But um, after all saying all that, my favorite thing, one of my favorite covers of the Taylor Swift song is Um, Sarah barrellis who is you know, gigantic talent in her own right. She did that song I want to see You Be Brave. I'm done you like that I don't know a love song, because she asked, Yeah,

she's awesome. She did a cover of Taylor Swift's Clean and it's awesome and it's on YouTube and it's one of my favorites. To check that out. Um well, that's really nice that you surround yourself with the people that you love. Anyway, it was so much fucking fun. I cannot tell you like I love hangs. That is what I miss more than anything. That's what I miss about going to the seller. It's what I miss about living

in New York. It's what I miss about being when you get to be thirty eight, all of our young besties out there and you get your hanging out with your friends every night and going to bars, and that ship goes away. People get married, people have kids, people get lives, people get jobs. It's just that that just sitting around and talking goes away. And so after the shows, I'm used to like, Andrew's already tired, he's going to bed.

Anya and Matt have been working all night. They're going to bed, and everyone kind and I'm still like adrenaline up. And I know besties are like, come hang with us. You don't know. I don't know you, so I can't really like commit to those you know, And so I'm just so used to like afterwards, just sitting in at the venue, I eat my food and like everyone hangs out and kind of playcates like me just having a little bit more energy and we kind of talk a little bit. But then we go back to the hotel

and we're done. No one drinks either, So drinking is something that keeps people up. That's another thing in your thirties. People keeps get sober and no one hangs alcohol is a big part of hanging out. And um, so we go. So the other night, we leave the venue in Burlington and we go back to our hotel and I walk in the lobby thinking like this sucks, like I just have to go much energy. I don't know we're going to do with it all. I'm going to be up

all night. I can only like masturbate once. No offense. Mom Um. I don't know why I said no offense, but I guess, yeah, I hope no offense was taken. Just you're so offended masturbate that would be so funny, Like I guess you could be offended, but I almost said it like you would have taken like umbradge like NICKI like you were my boyfriend or something that. Yeah. So um and Annie was staying with me too, because Matt had the band. He was staying in a room

with all them. And then he was like, I'm gonna sleep in bed with you, and which was awesome because I was like, oh good, awesoone talk to But we watched back in and the band was all like in the bar area of this hotel hanging out and I was like, hi, guys, and I was just like yes, And so we sat down and I didn't really know them. I got to sound check. No, they drink, but they weren't like they're not heavy drinkers. They're they're in a band, so they're used to like staying out late afterwards and

like hanging out, which comedians like don't do that. We're all just like we go to our separate hotel rooms. We jerk off, we go to sleep, and we fall asleep watching TikTok or whatever. Like we're just boring. We take a ship. We just like we're not hanging out, and I miss we I used to at the Cellar because it was a bar. People are hanging out, but there's no place on the road for us to do

that anymore because we don't drink. And so we got back and I was just like and Anya was like, I'm thinking I'm gonna go to bed, and I was like, okay, but I'm going to stay down here, like I'm so excited and so and this band was so cool. Shout out to Dan the drummers, Shout out to John the guitarist. Shout out to Chris the guitars. Shout out to Um Heidi. Sorry, she always says her name is Hillary, but I kept being like, I keep thinking her name is something else.

She was like, they gets Hidi, and I was like, now I do so Hillary Um on the keys and backup vocals. They are We're all so freaking nice. And it was just like traveling with a band. Need to be in a band, So I have some big ideas for myself because I need to be in a band. It's too much fun. It was like everyone and they're all just in their late thirties. I think Heidi Hillary slash Hillary Heidi is in her like early thirties, but

they've all they're just extraordinary musicians. They're all so cool there. They didn't think they were better than me because I'm not a musician. They included me like I felt like I was in a band, Like I felt like musical and cool and like we're just talking about life stuff and they're all artists. So I don't know, and it's been a long time since I sat around with people and been like, so, what's like the most pain you've ever been in your life? Or like does there every

time you thought you were gonna die? Or like just talking about like really interesting things are like you know, what's the most in love you've ever been in? And how bad did that go wrong? Like we're just getting into like cool stories and sharing stories. It was awesome and I loved it so freaking much. It's such a down. I mean, I was with you in Santa Barbara when Anya hit her and that was really fun. We went out to eat afterwards it and I thought that was

the best hang. Yeah, so I felt like I understand what it's like. You went Onya because you weren't doing it, but I mean you weren't performing. Yeah, you finally had a night off. God love you. But Anya, I would thought it's best to be fun for Onya, just like the night's not done, you know, yeah, Well that was the best we went out to. That was like the best night of my life this year. I think was like watching on your perform, getting to sing one song

with her, not really having to do anything myself. I wasn't there as a comedian. I was just there's like a friend supporting and then going out to dinner with us three and like talking about boys in life and it's different. I realized that hanging out with you without dad is different from me than with dad. It's like a different dynamic for me. And I'm like, mom needs to go on girls trips, more girls trips. I'm in. I know you would be pretty great on a girl's trip.

I think I kind of hate if any of you brought your mom's because I don't know them. You know. No, It's like I'd hate if you brought my mom to her mom on the next girl's trip. Well, there is one coming up. You can't go to it, unfortunately, because it's already fully booked and we can't fit any more people in the and know what, you're still pending, so there is a spot still for you on the I'm

just I had a feeling. I didn't want to press it, but um, there is one coming up work side about But it's just so nice to have a mother that UM can hangs. Yeah, I really appreciate you. I had. I came home from that trip going I loved that trip. It was the best. And we got to hang out with Chris, you know a little bit, and I got to hang out with oh my mom and Tiffany had it and then Kevin Well today I went on this

km OV show and I was promoting the parade. So it was Ken Earhart, who you know, he's like a weatherman also news guy, and then this other girl. We were doing this like live kind of broadcast, like after, how come you don't tell us about that? I was live. I didn't know was live. They thought they said it was just like online. It was online only nightmare for you to find there's like three people watching. And so we were interviewing on it, and the girl right before

it was like, is it glass Er Glasser? And I was like, it's Glazer and I never care if people don't know, I just don't care. And she was like and I could tell she was maybe a little bit embarrassed, and I should just tell people so they don't have to ask, because it is an admission that I don't know who you are kind of thing and when you're interviewing you know, So to make her feel better, I go, I actually did a show with Kevin Hart last week, and everyone was like, he knows who you are. He's

so excited to have you on the show. And then he was like, is it Nikki glasher, and so I go, even Kevin Hart, but then they both go. Then ken Earhart is like, oh, you want to pick up that name you just dropped, and I was like, oh, I wasn't brag. I was trying to make her feel better that she's like, you know, like, but um but it was really fun. We did that show and then afterwards we did these like promos for the thing where, um, I hope I find it so I can post it

on our socials. If you guys see it on TV because you're you watched, it's a promo that's airing this week on Channel four. If anyone in St. Louis areas sees it, please film your TV and send it to me. But it's um me going like I'm about to shoot a promo and I'm looking like, looking at the script, it looks like kind of behind the scenes, and I'm like, okay, so I'm Nikki Glazer this Thanksgiving. I will be the

Grand Marshal Thanksgiving. Okay, cool, I got it. And then Kent walks in and goes, what's going on and I'm like, oh, I'm the Grand Marshall of the parade. I'm shooting the promo and he goes, I always shoot the promos, and I go, okay, we want to do it together. He's like, I guess, and so then we do the promo together.

Were like and it goes from us being like kind of not friends to be like this Thanksgiving and there's like snow coming down and we're like in these like scarves and hats and were like the Thanksgiving Day parade. And then his co host Laura comes off the side of the stage and she goes, what are you guys doing? And I just go Laura, And that wasn't a part of the script, but I just kept doing it because

it's so funny. It was like it's delayed. It was like a soap opera, you know, where we got caught cheating and I'm like, oh, it was like almost one of those like, um, TeleNova, I can't wait to tell um, yeah, it was really fun and then um yeah, and then so Thanksgiving it is coming up. Um. We wanted to do top one bottom one today and we're gonna make it a very simple subject. It's Monday, so um, we're gonna do that when we get back. But it's gonna

be Thanksgiving Day themed. I hope you got ready to talk about Thanksgiving? Sure are you? Well? I went to the store and bought a bunch of stuff. But you know, we'll talk about it. We'll talk about we'll talk about it right after this. Welcome back to the show. My mom just said she just coughed and goes, I never get a cough and it's like, well this is COVID, mom, No, welcome to the club. You got it? Do you have? I think people don't lose sense of taste or smell anymore.

I don't think that's one of the symptoms. But you got the booster right, all right, Well maybe you'll be. I'm not worried about you, um, but you're going to be. Okay. It's Thanksgiving is upon us, and UM, I hope to everyone out there that you have someone to spend it with. And if you don't, maybe I'll go live on Instagram on our socials and um, you can spend it with us. I think that might be fun. I hate to think that anyone is alone on Thanksgiving. I do think that

Instagram lives. At least when I watched some of people, I feel like I'm hanging out with someone. So and even when I go live on my own, I feel like everyone there. I go on them when I'm alone. So, UM, look for that that night. Um, I'm very excited. I get to spend Thanksgiving Eve with Chris and his family and you're gonna come to We're gonna go play racket ball? Is that it? I don't even know what it is, but I'm ready to go. Yes. So it's like outdoor tennis,

but it's like it's somewhere between pickleball and tennis. I don't understand. We're going to a country club. It's going to be very what to expect a year for so long? You don't need to google. It's very simple. It's like pin poll. It's like it's it's easy. Um, there's you don't need? Is there a table? What do you mean? It's No, it's like it's a court. It's a tiny court. People on the other side. There's people on the other side judging. It's going to be judge. We're gonna put

our moms against each other. See who's the letter? Okate? Um? Do you they call her Kate like all the convoys call her Kate? Do you? How would you feel about me calling you Julie instead of Mom? I don't know. I don't think I could do it. I never called my mom Marge. You never, Yeah, you said mom, Mom. I'm trying to get Chris to call me babe. I really want I would like Chris not to call me Mrs Glazer. How helping him to call me Mrs Glazer

feel free? But even missing Adam Mrs to it. If he calls me Mrs Glazer on Wednesday, I'm going to have to he does do that. Yeah, he's got to call you Julie. Yeah, as he doesn't call you Mrs Glaze in front of me, I'm kidding some jewels, he tells me Glaze. I'm tired of it. I want to be Miss Glazer or Babe. I'm trying to get him to babe me up, Babe. I love babe, but you have to force him to call me a babe. I don't like it. I don't care. That's what I would

say in my relationship. If there's something I want, if I go babe, touch me more like I want more things and he does it, I don't care. I'm not like, Oh, he's only doing it because I told him. It's like good, he's doing what I need him to do. I like that. I don't. I don't punish him for doing things that I tell him to do. I'll just go thanks for following the rules, repeat after me. Um, So Thanksgiving's gonna be fun. But when we're gonna have we're gonna eat

dinner at you're having? Are the kids coming? Of course? So me and Lauren the kids, and then Forest, Poppy and Arlow and then Dad and mom. Um, it's been a while since we've I guess we did it last year. Did we remember Andrew eating so much? I had to go to a show. Andrew was there, and he ate so much that he looked pregnant, and Lauren was pregnant. Was so hungry, Lauren was pregnant, and he started eating

before he couldn't. He got his plate and went into the dining room and started eating before and he was like two plates full of food and then he got sick. Yeah, he got sick, but he started eating before We all sat down like not that we're a family who like potato. I agree. I was just I thought it was hilarious. You know, we did it. We did it, but he had like one plate. We are were But I remember I have a picture of him bouncing, like touching stomachs

with Lauren. Lauren was she gave birth the next day. Yeah, she went and labored and they looked equally as pregnant. It was one of my favorite pictures ever. Um, that was a great Thanksgiving This year. I don't have to shoot a special in one day after Thanksgiving, so I feel so much more relief. Um, but let's talk about Thanksgiving food. The topic today for top one, bottom one is Thanksgiving food. Thanksgiving foods. So I mean, you know, this is a subject that's probably you know, everyone has

a quick opinion on. But let's go through. Let's your least favorite Thanksgiving food? We always start with the bottom. Well, I mean I make Thanksgiving, so I don't make anything I don't like, So that's okay. Well, let's say you're going to someone else's like a tried and true things, a thing you will not have on your Thanksgiving. We're not talking about your Thanksgiving food like typical Thanksgiving foods that you're like you that is overrated. Get that out

of here. One thing is people make ambrosion salads. Do you know what those are? Is that they're like, yes, and I loved them, did you? Yeah? I really like them, but not that it's marshmallow and fruit and it's just um, it's gross. And the other thing I would is a jello in it? Is it like folded? It's kind of liked, it might have some kind of gelatine in it. Disgust. I've never made it, but I was like, I do

not like that. I don't think like does that sweet potato kind of I don't think so sweet potatoes google and brosia salad they do have marshmallows on them choes sometimes. Okay, yes, I do know that. Um. Okay, so ambrosia salad which no one's gross. Oh man, I'm looking at it. It's disgusted in it. Okay. Ambrosia salad with cool whip, Okay, this the recipe is okay. One big sugar bomb. Oh God, why don't they just have this easily accessible? And it's

not even a dessert. You know, I'm not someone who looks up recipes because I don't cook anything, but why is it such a cluster fuck to find a fucking just to find the ingredients before you have to read a whole story from you know, they've changed everything. I've always looked up recipes for years now. Right underneath it, it says, jump to recipe. Oh it does, yes, so you gotta you gotta grab it before you go down. One can of mandarin orange. One can of pineapple tidbits.

I don't like that word. I think my mom used to make. It just sounds like people are like, hey, here's a pineapple, here's a healthy meal. Sometimes like it just sounds like they think it's a gloom or about pineapples. Tidbits um. One cup of miniature marshmallows. One cup of shredded coconut. I do love the texture of coconut. Some people are antitest of coconut and one cup of sour cream. How on earth that seems like something you would make when you are locked in your house, Because there is

some kind of nuclear or outside. And it's the least. I mean, this is truly whoever think to put all those together? There? If that tastes good, that's brilliant. On who's high? It's like people like it's it's very sweet. I am locked inside during an apocalypse. You know what else? Uh? People go, I make the best green being cancero? Well, is yours any different than everybody else's? It's the same recipe. Well why is that difference than saying you're you make

the best anything? I mean, like, aren't all recipes kind of I mean a turkey you have to really, yes, you have based it you there's all specialist stuff it in a salad. You know, different things are in a salad. Salad. I feel like those are the easiest things to Makeever, there's no cooking involved unless you're gonna make. You still gotta make your dress and the dressing. I guess you take some finesse. Yeah, but a green beaman castle you

think that's the thing. Stop bragging about that. Quit bragging about shirt cream being. I want to hear more of your pet peeves of people with their dinners and um uh, let me see what else? Uh No, but that green being canceroled. I just heard this last night. Somebody said I make the best green It's like, oh, you put fried onion rings in it? Oh? Really? That? Can you know? They're all together at the grocery store. You can get it's canned right, green grassroots based on a canny canned

green beans with canned cream and mushroom soup. Right. But there's nothing Yeah, there's nothing of all about it. Okay, so abrosial salad. It sounds equally discussing to all of us. Know what is your least favorite? By the way, your top is so freaking so that's my favorite Thanksgiving? That's my favorite? Where that? Um, this is like old h and m oh man, that's good. I know that's really cute. It's shoulder, there's flowers on it. It's it's a good

luck and she's got this. You got your roots coming in pretty heavily. Fucking Look girl, I love it. You make me want to grow out my roots. Um all right, now, what's your least favorite Thanksgiving food? You're gonna not think so highly of me after I say this, but my least favorite food is the turkey? Fucking hate turkey? How do you hate turkey? So one is I don't like the bird turkey. It's my second least favorite bird. Oh yeah, wait, no, I hates birds, No, no, I hate hate turkeys, pigeons,

and turkey. I was going to say pigeons because they are obnoxious, you know why, because turkey they're not afraid of I don't like birds that are not afraid of you, with the exception of like felt like of falcons and stuff like that. But prey. Yeah, I just I've been chased by turkeys and think that's why I'm too scared to eat them. I don't want to. They taste yeah,

I like that. The fear that they put in you makes you not want to eat them, though you would think you would like, oh, I can't wait to eat that fucking stupid turkey that's been chasing me, you know right. And here's the things they do taste delicious. I'm a vegan and these are delicious. I don't think they taste delicious.

But if I if I eat an animal, you know, I I was like, like a vegetarian, and then I I started introducing protein back into my diet from animals, so I just like appreciate it, and I like, I say grace to the animal almost before I eat it. But I can't. I just I don't like turkeys so much that I just can't even Like they make you think you're like eating a cockroach, like it's there's they gross you out and they just cause you anxiety. Just then,

worry turkey, not anxiety. I just like disgusted. You don't need like the shape of your hand when you trace it on a piece of paper. I want nothing to do with turkeys. Nothing to do it. Um and turkeys are fucking delicious. And I am someone who is a vegan and I'm I'm so sorry to turkey's for being so good tasting. Well, we're not having them this year because because of me. Yeah, but I did. I was talking to Lauren, I'm like, what do you want? Do you want to lentil loaf? And she said that sounds

so gross. Mom, I'm like, okay, I was gonna good, do you get a turkey every Here's here's what we're doing. I was going to have a big party in Cincinnati with cornish game hens and uh no one wanted to do it. My brother and my mom has this thing where she gets a craving for food and it must happen. And now I'm guessing game hens, that was the happening. It was going to happen. Off is going away because you're salvating so much that it's lubricating your life. Feel

like I don't have COVID anymore? Yeah, what the who craves a cornish game? And well little no? I just want to. I want to because I knew I was any of a vegan Thanksgiving us thinking that, well, thank you so much for not killing turkeys but killing tiny, little killing little hens. Okay, so I feel bad. But anyway, your sister said, Mom, serve those. Matt would like those, and I said, okay, I've got him. I am I have I ever been someone who makes you like when

you're eating it? And I just wanted to honor you for a second for a second. Then that was Marshall. I don't Thanksgiving Day parades. Yeah, I thought this day, I don't want to eat a turkey. I will still be wearing my sash and carrying my a scepter that night, which I hope did you get that float? I hope, I wish, I hope I got a scepter. That would be so cool. Thank you if you request it. Yeah, I gotta put acepter request your Um, they don't even know I'm doing this, but I does anyone know you're

doing this? Have you posted anything? No, nothing about it, because there hasn't been there. You know, to post anything, you have to have like a graphic about it, or you gotta make a video. I'll post it. I got a picture today shooting that. You gotta promo, gotta put it out there. UM talked about it on here. My least favorite is um cranberry sauce. I don't get it. It just reminds me of just jelly. If you want to put jelly on your rolls, put those like. I

don't know what to do with it. It's always seemed like, UM, I think we've actually talked about this. I just UM, I just don't know if I'm going to eat something so packed with sugar and preservatives and just like bad for you on every level. I mean, maybe there's some vitamins in it. I'm gonna eat pumpkin pie or like whip crap like I'm gonna or even just like hairs in a salad or something that's out of a can and it's jelly. I'm making whole cranberry. I don't know.

I just think about those men on those those cranberry juice commercials standing in that field field and all those cranberries just farting into slopping around the same way about turkeys that or about those men and those cranberries. I just don't I've never liked a cranberry. Do we all got U T I s that we gotta fix? Why? Why is that the only time cranberries are introduced into our diet? Why just that time of year? Or you have a U T I? No, I have it? I

have you have a good recipe? No, I just know I'm making whole cranberries, and thank you so much for you know, doing dinner. We went to Ruby Tuesdays a couple of years ago, and that leads us to my favorite Thanksgiving food, the Ruby Tuesday's salad bar. That was so d We love Tuesday's salad bar. If you are someone that lives near Ruby Tuesdays, do not underestimate the salad bar. It is like, I bet it's like ten

bucks at this point. And then you can do a salad bar plus two sides, and I think it rounds up and it is a great meal they'd make. They I love Ruby Tuesday's Love. We were loving sponsored, but I wasn't cooking. For the first time. I go, mom, let's just go to Ruby Tuesdays. We know we want it, you know you want it. So we drove like nine miles to go to a Ruby not close, but it wasn't close, and it was during COVID. I think it was the first year's final thought. Let's go onto our

favorite Thanksgiving foods. Okay, we know yours is cornish, game use it's churchy for sure. It's really a sea urchin on discount got it all this. Have you ever had sea urchin? Sea urchin? It's of course I have. Well we know you've had squid, but sea urchin. Kay, know where are you getting that from? Well, no one's taking it up. No one's doing you know, comedy. It was the exaggerating the sea way going to albert the video Noah's neck is doing things that I really like. Going

to Albertson's discount, Ben Baby, got some urchin. Gotta eat it to listen. I don't toss or urchin world. Your dad's playing tention. I'm making my own dinner. Don't have to worry about him getting some urchin. Um, he doesn't deserve urchin. Oh god, I've never seen your face light up with like when I gave you that squid salad that one night, and it was so nice to do that. And you know what, I don't like, you know, serving squid to and their intellectual animals. But I didn't mind

it because I knew how honored it was. Like you weren't just eating it like whatever. Like I hate when people just eat chicken are like I don't want any I'm not even hungry, and they just like waste a chicken's life. But you are gonna eat every part of

that squid. Um okay, Oh my god. There was a funny joke made this weekend of we were talking about kids that get eaten by alligators and someone like you know, like where they've just been snatched off that it's so sad we weren't like making doesn't really happen at Disney World an alligator, Like there was a kid waiting and at the Disney World resort, like on one of the hotel that three year old boys like ten years ago. It was in the last ten years, but it wasn't

ten years ago. I remember that. It's so tragic. But the alligator did use every part of the little boy. So he did. He is my joke honored it. Um. You know how they always say, like, use every part of the animal. So it was just a reverse joke. Um, you had to be there. Um, So my favorite Your favorite is turkey? No, actually it's dressing. I love dressing with gravy on it. I'm a gravy Oh we No, dressing is the stovetop stuffing. Now it's dressing. Is you know, stuffing?

So what what's It's almost like a frosting and icing. It's dressing. Dressing in St. Louis or I guess in Cincinnati. My mom's gets the words from Um they call stuffing dressing. Yeah, and I think dressing means they're stuffing. Why don't you make stuffing during the year that, like, if that's your favorite food? Sometimes do when you make when I make when dad's playing tennis late or practicing with his band, making stuff and for dinner. I usually have two turkey

dinners throughout the year, like you do. I love I love that. Now do you need the stuffing inside the turkey? Oh? Why don't do that? Or do you put it on top of it because it's dressing. I put it on its head. It's a head dress. No, I cook it separately, Okay, I is it bread crumbs? What does it? Bread crumbs and an egg and poultry seasoning and a little uh chicken sounds like an ambrosious onion and celery and I've

never liked stuffing. Again, if I'm to eat something that feels like not that good for you, I'd want to do crescent rolls with some strawberry jam, or I'm gonna carbload. I want to I want to choose. I don't understand people that just like will eat things. But you love that, so that makes sense to me. I love I don't love the taste of that stuff, so I'm just like, I wouldn't waste part of my meal on that. Um No, what what were you going to do for that? What

you're looking forward to the most? I don't like? And what are you doing? Really? You doing? Oh? I'm going to Colorado to see family, obviously wearing wearing Colorado Denver. Oh fun? O jealous, that would be so fun. I love that you've got a lot going on that day. I don't like they can make a plate for me that she doesn't have anything going on, so could she come now? But I just love Denver so much. Yeah, we had together. We did have the best time alright.

So no favorite, I gotta admit Thanksgiving the food is my least favorite type of food. It's all just so heavy and like very sweet. The turkey. I don't like the turkey. So there's really nothing that I like. I always just either put like mashed potatoes and like salad and biscuits. That's likes it for you? Like what are you wanting instead of that? Like pizza? I mean, I like sweet potato, but when they put the marshmallows over,

it's just like so over the top sweet. I'm not a sweet I don't have a sweet tooth, so the food is likely to heavy or sweet for me. Have you ever been a sweet tooth? Like even as a kid, did you like sugar? I don't know. I said you didn't. You weren't like a candy head? No, I was not a candy head. Whoa, because I'm more savory, like hot potato chips or like funning and stuff like that. You love lovery is all over that Thanksgiving me a girl? But but it's savory and sweet. There's like the gravy

ist sweet that there's fruit and everything. That's why she doesn't like it. It's sucking her savory yeah right, savory Yeah, So I guess, I guess if I had to choose. Julia is reminding me that the stuffing is usually how I fill up on Thanksgiving, so I'm not hungry, so literally stuffing alright, I would like to say that my favorite thing to do. And I'm just you know, I'm gonna I always do this with top one bottom, and I kind of just like, I don't pick one because

for me, Thanksgiving it's about making up. I break the rules, and I break the rules on things, but I actually think I follow the rule, which is you've gotta mash it all together. And that's why I love Thanksgiving. It's like it's a it's a ghoulash at the end. So I like, my mom makes an amazing salad that as I don't usually has blue cheese in it, but not anymore because of vegan but um, she makes a great salad. I don't even know what you put in that salad.

It like very thin, like I love the way you do very thin, purple onions in the salad with romaine. It's just a really dense, hardy salad. I put a huge plate of that. That's half my plate, and the other half is um mashed potatoes. But mash cauliflower I really like because let me say, I just like to eat gigantic amounts of food, so I don't like things that are going to fill me up because I want

to keep eating forever and ever and never stopped. Mash califlower, cauliflower and then brussel sprouts, baby, a little bit of gravy and like some of the salad dressing maybe mixed in. And then the number one thing on any Thanksgiving plate that goes good with every single part of the dish except maybe the salad, because that's a cold dish, creamed corn. Want that creamed corn is the most I that and

a one sauce for the two things. As a kid, that was like this must cost a thousand dollars because Dad was always just like, you've too much cream corn. Taking all the cream corn. It's just like then I grew up and I'm like, I can't. I cannot believe. As a child this was ration to me, but Dad was always mad at me about the cream corn. He loves it. Dad and I have the cream corn is so freaking good, and I don't want it. I don't want you to make it fresh. I want it canned.

Oh yeah, I want it packed with sodium. I do easy, easy, breezy. No. I appreciate you picking up this like I don't know. Someone asked me, I guess that was my uber driver yesterday was like, what are you making for you know, Thanksgivings from Jordan's? Did you say nothing? I said nothing. I've never made in my life for anything. I've been so lucky to not have to ever work. Laurence making the salage in kale salad. Oh that's interesting. Is she

gonna missage? It's massage? Well that's really nice. Hopefully I will sing the national before we eat for you, guys, antihero, I don't know what I'm bringing to the table literally on Thanksgiving except my spirit and pay for some of it. We're decided about you singing and being at the parade and being finding out today that we get to ride a trolley behind you. Yeah, it's gonna be so fun. Not no eye contact with me? Why because I'm the Grand Marshal and I'm not like you on the I'm

just an okay. I don't know how long it is, God, I think it's long, really, probably an hour. I mean it's tempting to go on that trolley, but then we're stuck on the trolley. Yes, I'm going to have presents for the kids. I bought a barbie for Poppy. I hope she's not listening to the podcast. You know, she's four, but she's a huge fan. Um I brought about a bar for her. That's a full figured barbie. It's a fat It's a fat Barbie. And I was like, I

love this. She's a fat vet, not a not a veteran like that would be a very inclusive barbie if it was a fat veteran. But um, I was said ds W this weekend and the malling Providence picking up some shoes last minute from my outfit, and I saw a fat Barbie and I go, this is awesome. I wish I had fat Barbie's back. And it's at she's not even fat. I'm saying fat without any judgment. By the way, I think fat is I people should identify

as fat and it should mean anything bad. I think the idea that you know, I was talking about fat means fat means bad, Like you can just be fat and that doesn't mean that you're bad, you know, Like or if I'm trying to talk about it in my act right now, if you say someone said you say someone's ugly, people go. Or if you say ugly as a harsh word, I will admit that and so is fat. But fat. I like the fat acceptance movement has made the word fat be like I'm just People are just

like I'm fat, and that's the word for it. It's almost like little person where you go that sounds more insulting than the other word. We can't say, but little person is just the way they like to be referred to. And I like that. Fat people are like, yeah, I'm just fat. It doesn't mean anything. It doesn't mean I'm a bad person's fat. It's like who cares. But ugly is another thing that people can't. You can't call someone

ugly puts people go. No. It's like, but some people are ugly and they and as someone I'm I don't think I'm ugly. Some days I feel ugly. If I look ugly and I say I'm ugly, people, you're not ugly, and it's like, but I should be able to be ugly, because I probably I could be ugly some day I could fall into maybe someday. But but but but that's my problem is when people go, you're not know and then it makes me feel like that's something I shouldn't be ever and if I was, it would be a

bad thing, and it shouldn't be. You should be allowed to be ugly. You should be allowed to be fat. You shouldn't be you know, all these things that we eat. Sometimes there's something in our society that equates ugly or fat with bad and or like you're morally wrong, there's something weak about your character, there's something shifty about you. Like ugly people get paid less, I mean across the board. They've been studies and I wish, well, I'm not I'm

not making as much money as I could. No, I just think that it should be a thing you should be able to say or I should be. Now there's this whole movement right now where they're taking the word anti aging out of everything, because it's going to be crazy to see things that say so today we're gonna be like, can you believe they sold things as anti aging a thing that's inevitable for all of us. They were telling us not to do. And it is bonkers that like anti wrinkle, anti aging, and I love that

that kind of thing is changing. Um and we'll talk about that more next week. Um uh, enjoy the episode coming this coming Wednesday.
