00:07:19.700 I know it's an American joke.
00:07:21.860 It's not.
00:07:22.560 It's real.
00:07:23.200 The sound, it does a lot.

00:07:25.600 Do you have any lights?
00:07:27.660 Any Christmas lights?

00:07:32.300 tomorrow. I dare you to have two days. You need something. All right. I'm going to have to just
00:07:39.980 go back to the wine shop. All right. Here's what it is. Tunes. You're going to have holiday tunes.
00:07:44.720 Okay. And you're going to make something with peppermint. See, this is where I struggle. So
00:07:50.480 Christmas flavors do nothing for me. I'm not interested in the flavor profile of Christmas
00:07:56.800 at all oh do you hear the anger my voice interesting yeah i feel i like mint tea year
00:08:02.200 round but peppermint like a like that doesn't that isn't where my nostalgia lies and the flavors
00:08:07.520 maybe it's time to create a new one because i got news for you the light one day this will be the
00:08:12.020 past what do you mean so let's just say you and me start in on peppermint candy now oh i see what
00:08:21.400 in 10 years it will hold nostalgic value it's not only the sacred nostalgia bomb of childhood
00:08:30.900 that has a chance of meaning something right it's a really good i saw this thing with crushed where
00:08:36.040 you crush up the peppermint candy now okay peppermint mark now so so i was looking at that
00:08:40.520 and i was looking at you crush it up and these cocktails okay this sort of these creamy maybe
00:08:45.260 it was eggnog i don't know but oh no this was like a white chocolate peppermint like cocktail
00:08:48.880 creamy okay and then and then they dip you know they they turn over the glass and they line the
00:08:54.040 glass oh oh whoa red and white just bark or whatever the hell it is okay i mean how do you
00:09:02.120 say no to that that's fine i mean at dinner recently a friend ordered a glass of eggnog
00:09:08.500 what where and i thought good for him are you ready for this where yeah the beverly hills hotel
00:09:15.620 The Polo Bar.
00:09:16.820 Now, did they...
00:09:17.860 Was it at the bar or at dinner?
00:09:19.780 And was it on the menu?
00:09:20.900 And was it featured just among the cocktails?
00:09:22.960 Was it seasonal cocktail menu?
00:09:24.020 No, no, no.
00:09:24.320 This was non-alcoholic.
00:09:25.360 This was non-alcoholic.
00:09:26.320 He wanted a glass of...
00:09:28.100 And they just had it.
00:09:28.920 Yep.
00:09:29.260 But it was on the menu 0.98
00:09:29.900 because I've never fucking seen it there. 0.94
00:09:31.860 I don't know if it was on the menu. 0.98
00:09:33.180 And guess what?
00:09:33.660 On the room of the glass,
00:09:34.660 a baby candy cane.
00:09:36.660 There it is.
00:09:37.520 Okay.
00:09:38.160 There.
00:09:38.600 And I had a sip and I said...
00:09:39.860 Baby candy cane does nothing for you?
00:09:42.020 They didn't...
00:09:42.460 Yeah, that's exciting.
00:09:43.360 Tossed across a desk in elementary school, a baby candy cane landing on a desk.
00:09:47.940 Yeah, that does mean something.
00:09:48.860 That does mean something.
00:09:50.420 Crunch, crunch, crunch.
00:09:51.460 I'm getting stuck in the molars.
00:09:52.720 Crunch, crunch, crunch.
00:09:53.440 Yeah, there's memories there.
00:09:54.840 Working out of the molars, enjoying them.
00:09:56.660 Christmas time is nearly here.
00:09:58.000 And we are, this is, I mean, not to bring us brutally into the present, but it is, Christmas 0.99
00:10:04.180 is in, holy shit. 0.98
00:10:06.460 See, when I look at calendars, I get confused here because to me, Christmas is, Christmas 0.99
00:10:11.140 Eve, I would say is next Saturday.
00:10:13.360 Now, that might not be the truth to you.
00:10:16.120 Right now.
00:10:16.820 Now, today's the 11th.
00:10:18.500 I get lost in numbers like this.
00:10:20.620 Yeah.
00:10:21.340 So if I'm looking at the calendar, this row of week,
00:10:24.340 Saturday, to me, this Saturday is this upcoming Saturday,
00:10:27.520 not yesterday.
00:10:28.220 This Saturday is the Saturday we're about to have.
00:10:30.960 So next Saturday is-
00:10:32.080 Of course it is.
00:10:33.000 Okay, great.
00:10:33.720 So we're in agreement.
00:10:35.400 No, no, no, hold on.
00:10:36.340 I just mean, no, no.
00:10:37.160 I'm wondering about when someone says,
00:10:38.200 you know, well, if you said,
00:10:40.100 I went to the Grove this Saturday,
00:10:41.920 I think we'd know you meant
00:10:43.520 I went to the Grove this past Saturday
00:10:45.340 but that's very affected language right
00:10:48.380 here's one 0.98
00:10:50.060 what the fuck do you mean when you say 0.98
00:10:52.980 do you want to go to the Grove next Saturday 0.99
00:10:54.980 okay that's exactly 1.00
00:10:56.460 I think you're a psychopath 0.99
00:10:57.880 if you think that means two Saturdays from now 1.00
00:11:00.120 I think you're a lunatic 1.00
00:11:02.660 you know what I mean 1.00
00:11:07.100 like next Saturday 0.85
00:11:08.640 lunatic by the way is one of my favorite words
00:11:11.120 this is writer strong and i have a new podcast called the red weather it was many and many a
00:11:29.480 year ago in a kingdom by the sea in 1995 my neighbor and a trainer disappeared from a commune
00:11:36.220 It was hard to wrap your head around.
00:11:37.620 It was nature and trees and praying and drugs.
00:11:41.240 So no, I am not your guru.
00:11:45.020 And back then, I lied to my parents.
00:11:47.640 I lied to police.
00:11:48.920 I lied to everybody.
00:11:49.920 There were years right where I could not say your name.
00:11:52.880 I've decided to go back to my hometown in Northern California,
00:11:55.560 interview my friends, family, talk to police, journalists,
00:11:58.240 whomever I can to try to find out what actually happened.
00:12:01.780 Isn't it a little bit weird that they obsess over hippies in the woods
00:12:04.640 and not the obvious boyfriend?
00:12:06.220 They have had this case for 30 years. 0.92

00:14:11.060 Because in the arranged marriage universe, you're basically on a sushi conveyor belt.
00:14:15.180 And like raw fish, you've got a shelf life.
00:14:18.820 And the wild part? You're not just looking for someone you like.
00:14:22.020 You're casting for a mythical hero your entire family approves of.
00:14:25.700 a saint, a demigod, a unicorn.
00:14:28.860 I know because years ago I sacrificed myself

00:16:10.360 there no comfort to be found there the past and that is sorry to bring it back to the holidays
00:16:15.320 but that really it's just a huge national regression every year like all we do it's
00:16:21.740 an international regression it's like yeah it's mommy and it's like wanting to go back
00:16:25.860 and it's like this need to return to to the womb or a need to be a child again and that which is
00:16:32.020 also completely fine you know we're allowed no i mean from what is it from two two 92
00:16:37.600 whatever that song is about christmas yeah the melody has left me i don't know i don't know
00:16:44.040 and by the way you know we we crank tunes in this house oh we crank holiday tunes i love
00:16:50.100 i love holiday tunes sweetheart you don't know the man with the bag that's true actually everybody's
00:16:56.520 waiting for the man with the bag written in 1950 i checked okay wow okay well actually i checked and
00:17:02.380 it was written sometime around them but anyway sorry i got um oh but their national regression
00:17:06.880 i want to discuss the regression the national regression are you on your phone no not at all
00:17:11.260 look at my hand yeah yeah but keep going do you have to understand as you know we've talked about
00:17:16.660 it and i love that you love being called out and also it's like i get terrified i do not like
00:17:22.060 calling people out right that's why my stomach turns like with terror i really appreciate the
00:17:27.040 courage of you calling me out is felt and it comes from pure love and i should be called out
00:17:31.020 but i just now i was looking at my hand if not my phone no i do it for both of us i mean like i do
00:17:34.780 it i do it for brother sakes and it's good it's good practice for me in like confrontation not
00:17:39.800 meaning that you're going to abandon
00:17:41.900 me. Yes. Which is like
00:17:43.900 the child's fear
00:17:45.440 or whatever in some psychological
00:17:47.520 battery of
00:17:48.820 confrontation is so difficult
00:17:51.700 even the smallest. Refusing a gift
00:17:53.820 feels like confrontation and by that I mean like
00:17:55.760 oh do you want some eggnog
00:17:57.960 I just made it and if you don't want it you have to be like
00:17:59.900 yes I do. Or
00:18:01.660 you have to have an excuse and this
00:18:03.940 is where illness can become power
00:18:05.740 in some cases and why people don't want to heal
00:18:07.800 okay okay not all cases please please hear me in this okay not all cases obviously but just on some
00:18:13.600 cases okay okay when illness is power we we we can't just say okay i'm gonna leave the party now
00:18:21.080 because uh i want to go home okay yeah you have to i have a headache i'm tired do you see illness
00:18:26.880 is power yes totally totally okay and so we do it we do it all the time but gift opening is one of
00:18:32.260 my favorite subjects because for one I really don't like the fear of how others feel or their
00:18:38.620 feelings being hurt not saying I don't do it in a thousand other ways but I fear that so greatly
00:18:44.340 so present opening is is profound anxiety for me and it runs the family my mother and her sister
00:18:50.620 used to as children practice opening gifts like and they put this like weird goofy figurine that
00:18:57.740 was in the house like this like stupid thing and they'd practice opening it and trying to have like
00:19:02.540 a good reaction to it and i thought we could do it a little bit today that is okay because i want 0.97
00:19:08.380 to see your gift opening to some so i'll give you like i'll give you something okay i'll give you
00:19:13.240 something like stupid okay upon opening or because because here this is okay it's like i'm coming
00:19:19.480 over let's just say okay and i pull out something wrapped okay okay by the way do you think a gift 0.99
00:19:27.400 Is truly better than no gift
00:19:29.500 Wait
00:19:30.180 Do you think 1.00
00:19:30.980 Like is it better to bring something stupid 1.00
00:19:34.000 Than nothing at all 1.00
00:19:35.960 Do you know what I mean
00:19:37.060 Or like would you rather receive
00:19:39.160 To be empty handed
00:19:40.980 Like a small trinket
00:19:42.720 That will just haunt
00:19:43.900 Like a bad gift
00:19:45.100 Well similarly I think cards can be a burden
00:19:48.800 Right because people
00:19:49.820 They feel like they can't put a card right in the trash
00:19:52.220 So I have often written
00:19:54.820 On a card and I'm really proud of this
00:19:56.640 OK, in the bottom, something like expiration date, you know, December 28th.
00:20:01.660 OK, please discard after December 28th.
00:20:05.580 You know what I've been doing?
00:20:06.360 Isn't that so they don't feel guilty?
00:20:07.460 Isn't that wonderful?
00:20:08.060 So I this year, I that's brilliant.
00:20:11.080 And I've been ruthlessly throwing away baby announcements.
00:20:14.660 Oh, guess what?
00:20:16.840 Because for years, my fridge will not.
00:20:19.960 The fridge cannot hold.
00:20:20.900 I feel like that's a huge part of like honor and being in people.
00:20:24.600 yeah honor it and send it into recycling gently and also don't you dare make it a magnet
00:20:30.100 okay if your baby knows it's a magnet that's bull dare you yeah i'm not putting it on my smeg
00:20:39.320 i'm just kidding i don't have a smeg imagine if i had a smeg smeg is like by the way can you
00:20:44.840 believe the name can you believe the name smeg i'll take a smeg but i'll call it smeg i'll call 0.97
00:20:50.940 it smeg smeg is well isn't the word like fucking like smegma or something i'm doing the smear 0.98
00:21:00.340 smear you know brilliant like jesse klein like joke ages ago pap smear 0.98
00:21:05.640 isn't that genius i love her um okay the gifts all right kate read the card first read the card

00:21:30.500 Oh my God. I love you. I love you too. Okay. And then I open it up. All right. Open it.
00:21:39.400 Oh, now let's say it's something. Absolutely. So like, what do you hate? Let's say it was
00:21:44.040 like a dissected frog in glass okay okay oh my god you're crazy is that what i would say well
00:21:50.560 if it was me a dear friend i think you'd you'd go i would go i would go okay wait take it in

00:22:02.760 oh my god like i think that my angle would be like complete like wait are you serious
00:22:09.440 well no no like disbelief i would choose disbelief as my angle to ramp up because
00:22:18.020 you know you couldn't sell just simple like like joy no and i'm already imagining like okay kate i
00:22:23.480 know you like me explaining the gift as you're opening it okay here's a big one for me okay
00:22:28.560 what about a gift they sometimes come in bags but not always okay where there's multiple things in
00:22:35.960 the bag okay like let's just say like say you feel it one and it's like okay so you you reach
00:22:41.880 into a bag okay pull out the first thing okay and open that okay and let's say there's a little
00:22:48.960 candle in there okay oh it's beautiful i love it whatever okay oh thank you so much yeah okay
00:22:54.860 so i open up now let's say you're what there's like there's a couple things in there i pretend
00:23:00.720 or not pretend i act as if there's no way there's anything else in that bag oh wow and then jacqueline
00:23:10.340 there's more yeah jacqueline there's more okay i go oh my god yeah okay it's disgusting to root
00:23:15.540 around you can't run the tissue paper like a ferret yeah okay yeah throwing tissue paper on 0.88
00:23:20.940 your over your shoulder looking for more you monster yeah okay so i wait to be urged there's
00:23:25.360 more that's smart even if the person to me says you know there's two more things in there there's 0.86
00:23:30.180 two more things you pretend to forget i pretend to forget and and then i open the second object
00:23:35.460 okay and i'm and then i move the bag like we are done here that's beautiful thank you no there's
00:23:41.180 more there's one more thing there's one more thing okay and then wow okay but i do absolutely
00:23:46.160 no rooting around and this brings me to the one thing i want to talk about secret santa
00:23:49.660 and not secret santa whatever the one is where there's the bag and everyone reaches grab bag
00:23:54.480 what is that yeah a white elephant no because that's that thing where you get to trade up 0.98
00:23:58.600 why oh which by the way fuck you that's a very like is that like very goyim white elephant like 0.97
00:24:07.080 do you know i mean like i did my first white elephant last year because i i really classically 0.99
00:24:12.340 freeze up around games i don't like group games um and i actually know the worst words my belief
00:24:19.080 of the worst words in the english language and it's not even a full sentence it's just the first
00:24:22.400 view what okay let's everyone go around the room and that's it that's all you need whatever's coming
00:24:30.340 that's so scary that's so scary say what you're thankful for say your name and an animal that
00:24:35.240 also starts with that name no something about by the way i just want to say i had fun at the white
00:24:39.980 elephant which is kind of uh so i go back on what i said well often once no i never want to play a
00:24:44.860 game and then often i'm loving the game oh no i just had a memory oh no i had the white elephant
00:24:51.540 it last year i it was like i was a little pissed because i got like some joke ones or whatever
00:24:56.760 and one of them i was like it was so i was like what did you say something rude okay no i said
00:25:01.420 something i kind of held it up and was like what is this somebody had actually made it
00:25:06.500 oh no it was so no it was like made from cork and then but by the way then the gifts really
00:25:14.640 like retained some value and i was like oh by the way where is it now i wonder but and then i had to
00:25:18.640 really overcompensate and i felt so horrified because i had dancing for the next three hours
00:25:23.520 and trying to contextualize your early response not wanting to switch gifts i had to perform not
00:25:29.300 wanting to switch gifts thank god okay i'm i'm moved i got the opportunity to be like no no no
00:25:34.080 i'm keeping this i'm keeping this oh my god i would watch this movie and i we need i want to
00:25:39.080 talk about because there's the ontological crisis of giving and receiving gifts and it's endless
00:25:44.640 and what chases us our whole lives
00:25:46.520 and the presents because
00:25:48.660 the depression that follows the opening
00:25:50.960 of the presents as a child. Christmas
00:25:52.920 you're tearing through all the gifts
00:25:54.560 the utter depression that follows
00:25:56.860 in the moments after. Okay, I have to say
00:25:59.020 something that this is really embarrassing
00:26:00.460 because it really highlights how
00:26:02.480 violently spoiled I was as a child.
00:26:04.900 Oh my god, oh my god. Okay, I can't
00:26:07.180 believe I'm going to reveal it.
00:26:09.700 Reveal it knowing that
00:26:11.020 later we can cut it if it must be.
00:26:12.980 okay so only child right my christmas mornings were like full-blown like
00:26:19.700 bacchanalia bacchanalia for one for one daughter you mean like a christmas miracle
00:26:28.340 a dionesian for one it was like absolute just like richie rich like marie
00:26:37.400 presents galore like you have no idea like like my my stocking was so over stuffed there were
00:26:44.800 presents on the ground oh my god so there were things below the stocking i won't lie i won't
00:26:55.820 lie our full stockings also had to go on the ground because they they couldn't be held up
00:27:01.120 by a single nail i won't lie okay okay because my this is a funny thing related to the depression
00:27:07.180 okay so as we were opening gifts again it's the one thing we really celebrate hardcore and like
00:27:13.020 get really into it but like as we're opening gifts my brother or whoever would say because
00:27:18.320 there started to be the panic of the diminishing gifts okay yeah my brother would always go like
00:27:22.720 we still have the stockings you do stockings after yeah okay whoa okay as a way of we still
00:27:31.040 have the stockings is like, it's like this separate. Okay. You still, and there's like,
00:27:37.880 there's peace, there's peace in it. Also. And then the other thing that's so disgusting about
00:27:41.680 regression slash, and I do think this is generational and Chris believes this is the 0.87
00:27:45.860 baby boomers did this and it's their fault. Okay. Cause they wanted to remain the parents. 0.97
00:27:50.180 They didn't want to turn into grandparents. There's an extreme regression where like my
00:27:53.280 parents are in their seventies and we still expect them to like run Christmas, like, and us who are
00:27:58.640 adults to be the children like literally like like i wouldn't my mother's like like you know
00:28:04.120 like 70 okay and and i'm like and she's like can i just put the presents out the night before like
00:28:08.880 do i have to do it at 4 a.m okay so that we all run down and there's a surprise and i'm like no
00:28:15.500 mother you're gonna no like no you have to do it you have to be able to crack it on i'm like i'm
00:28:20.680 like pigging out like in front of the tv watching it's a wonderful life like and it's like and it's
00:28:24.940 like, you know, like until I go to bed, she's not allowed to do it. It's so wrong. By the way,
00:28:29.380 I just had a flash, as you know, because I'm an only child, I'm constantly living in the fear of
00:28:33.940 my inevitable, the inevitable reality that I'll be an orphan. And so I'm always planning my future
00:28:38.800 Christmases. And I just realized I have to be at your Christmas one year. Okay. I'm starting to
00:28:43.400 plant the seeds now for when I'm an orphan. Absolutely. Of course. Absolutely. You can all
00:28:50.200 you can come okay back to my most i have to say my horrifying detail which is that yes so
00:28:54.960 the absolute bacchanalia the the embarrassed the opulence the shocking opulence oh my god
00:29:01.240 although i want to be clear wasn't like i was getting high price tag it wasn't like i was
00:29:05.460 getting like you know there was just a lot okay but i remember this thing of tearing through and
00:29:11.240 it would take hours take hours to unwrap the presents and then i remember this i remember
00:29:15.840 this one specific christmas of like being like just like right afterwards just like so the the
00:29:23.040 come down right of the high and then my mom and then maybe it was the next day i was like still
00:29:28.940 depressed and my mom this is so my mom truly oops they forgot one
00:29:37.480 did they run out to get it
00:29:42.540 because of your depression
00:29:44.460 or they planned it originally
00:29:46.840 no
00:29:47.480 one more
00:29:51.700 an elf must have left one behind
00:29:54.720 the couch by accident
00:29:55.880 and it was a whistle
00:29:58.160 it was a gem encrusted whistle
00:30:00.400 no
00:30:01.360 it was not a gem encrusted whistle
00:30:03.980 that I had received
00:30:05.380 It didn't strike me down.
00:30:06.900 I really hope I didn't bring it up.
00:30:08.360 But I must have.
00:30:09.180 I must have, after opening, all the presents gone.
00:30:10.960 I didn't get the whistle.
00:30:12.300 No!
00:30:13.500 No!
00:30:13.820 That's what I'm thinking.
00:30:22.840 This is Ryder Strong, and I have a new podcast called The Red Weather.
00:30:26.920 It was many and many a year ago in a kingdom by the sea.
00:30:31.560 In 1995, my neighbor, Anna Trainor, disappeared from a commune
00:30:36.080 It was hard to wrap your head around
00:30:37.320 It was nature and trees and praying and drugs
00:30:40.780 No, I am not your guru
00:30:44.340 And back then, I lied to my parents
00:30:47.160 I lied to police
00:30:48.420 I lied to everybody
00:30:49.560 There were years right where I could not say your name
00:30:52.540 I've decided to go back to my hometown in Northern California
00:30:55.160 Interview my friends, family, talk to police, journalists
00:30:58.100 Whomever I can to try to find out what actually happened
00:31:01.420 Isn't it a little bit weird that they obsess over hippies in the woods and not the obvious boyfriend?
00:31:06.180 They have had this case for 30 years. 1.00
00:31:09.100 I'll teach you sons of bitches to come around here and my wife. 1.00

00:31:56.680 And finally, we'll meet Rosamund.
00:31:58.780 If it wasn't for the year where Ella lived,
00:32:01.620 she wouldn't have died on that fatal night.
00:32:04.540 You'll even get to meet my mum in that one,
00:32:06.280 who I can always count on to keep my feet on the ground.

00:33:10.920 Because in the arranged marriage universe,
00:33:12.780 you're basically on a sushi conveyor belt,
00:33:14.820 and like raw fish, you've got a shelf life.
00:33:17.560 and the wild part
00:33:20.080 you're not just looking for someone you like
00:33:21.900 you're casting for a mythical hero
00:33:23.480 your entire family approves of
00:33:25.560 a saint, a demigod, a unicorn
00:33:28.040 I know because years ago
00:33:30.020 I sacrificed myself to this chaotic
00:33:32.260 soul-crushing tradition
00:33:33.520 hoping to find love the correct way
00:33:35.820 Boys and Girls is our absurd

00:34:16.580 christmas light fight actually this would be huge okay i assume i assume there's a new season the
00:34:22.400 great christmas light fight it's on like abc or something okay they go around to different homes
00:34:27.900 that are competing in in their christmas house lights their christmas lights their house and
00:34:35.120 it is an opportunity to discuss aesthetics and art and what it means to be and i would love to
00:34:42.680 get you in on it because there are some houses that you go and it's, they've digitized. Okay.
00:34:48.300 So they basically, their entire house is made of pixels now. Okay. Flashed on the, on the screen
00:34:53.120 and the father or whatever is so proud because he's programmed it to flash with the, with the
00:34:58.660 tunes. Okay. So it's, you know, you know, but it looks like, doesn't look like a home. It looks
00:35:06.840 like right to me i prefer the homes that have the plastic the blow molds as they're called okay
00:35:12.980 those who know me know i love a blow mold yeah you do that's the plastic like the vintage plastic
00:35:18.260 so i'm actually getting two new ones this year two two vintage ones two um uh nutcracker men
00:35:25.940 all right so we need to get serious thanksgiving is over we need to get serious about prepping for
00:35:30.700 for the holiday and thinking about what that's going to mean for us what's that going to mean
00:35:35.840 for the eavesdropper?
00:35:36.760 What's that going to mean
00:35:37.380 for brand relations?
00:35:39.400 No, I know.
00:35:40.060 I know.
00:35:40.720 And yeah.
00:35:41.640 I got to get my solar lights.
00:35:43.300 I need new solar lights this year.
00:35:44.720 I have to decide
00:35:45.260 if I'm going to get ones.
00:35:46.220 My solar lights,
00:35:46.920 to be clear,
00:35:47.200 are not the pro.
00:35:47.680 Oh, but the aesthetics.
00:35:48.680 I want you to watch
00:35:49.320 Christmas Life.
00:35:50.200 I want you to have opinions.
00:35:51.620 Okay.
00:35:51.760 We can assess.
00:35:52.760 Okay.
00:35:53.000 Okay.
00:35:53.500 You know,
00:35:53.700 I don't love when people
00:35:54.680 mix in Disney
00:35:55.540 with non-Disney.
00:35:57.500 No.
00:35:57.980 No.
00:35:58.240 I'm like,
00:35:58.600 why is Mickey Mouse Santa there?
00:36:00.700 And you have a regular Santa.
00:36:02.700 I'll do Mickey,
00:36:03.320 but I guess 0.97
00:36:04.480 no but disney but are they sorry uh i'm not sure fuck that's fine terrible for them pixar i don't 0.52
00:36:13.160 know but i don't mind this is almost here i don't mind mickey alone i'm talking when you've created 0.85
00:36:22.280 a piece that is going to be judged by the great christmas light fight okay and you have 40 uh
00:36:29.380 human santas and then one mickey santa oh i see it's like what's going on here do you know what
00:36:35.480 i mean yeah yeah are we in cartoon world are we yeah there's a lack of uniformity it's just
00:36:41.060 interesting to see what people will do but anyway the christmas light fight i'm pretty excited about
00:36:45.820 so i'm hoping that can become a touchstone for the community for years and years and years my
00:36:51.760 whole childhood adolescence my parents threw a huge christmas party every year holiday god it was
00:36:56.380 the event of the season so fun so cool trashed my god really fun it was kind of a thing in the
00:37:05.500 community anyway i bet um my mother the most elegant you know divine host hostess elegant 0.92
00:37:14.900 party thrower unbelievable she would every year disappear so so she gets the party ready all of 0.98
00:37:21.960 that disappears into the bedroom lets them enter and all night where's helen where's helen where's
00:37:27.840 helen it was always this thing of my mother oh you mean in the bathroom getting ready oh because
00:37:33.200 she didn't have first of all she didn't have time of course i i get it but then it started to creep
00:37:39.280 in my head a little bit it's not a criticism of my dear mother of course not to creep in my head
00:37:43.760 a little bit it's a little bit dramatic yes i thought you were saying she does it on purpose
00:37:50.040 okay but well now of course i wonder well i i'm kind of intrigued because my mind was racing
00:37:55.960 ahead and going oh this is interesting okay you set up the party okay you sort of you let the
00:38:01.920 first couple people in or you somehow set it up so that they're kind of held at the door
00:38:06.440 bottleneck so to speak then you you unlock it yeah you open it okay just enough to get them to
00:38:13.560 come in you dart away and you let the guests kind of find their way into the home without
00:38:20.260 without your help this is just i'm just playing playing this through the opposite of the the
00:38:25.560 welcome okay would there be some peace would there be some kind of unexpected comfort and almost
00:38:32.820 being like kind of finding it yourself like stumbling in oh where's the host and you and
00:38:38.800 the other guests kind of connect that is fun that's that's christmas that's very childlike
00:38:44.420 the wonderland that's been yes for you it's been set up and they're going what and they're all
00:38:47.660 relating as a group when before they were in their separate cars maybe there's something to that
00:38:51.760 and then once you hear it kind of cooking then you pop out you really i don't know it does it
00:38:57.480 doesn't really work but i'm interested no i think that's an option but i just thought those memories
00:39:02.140 i mean there's always like a little note there's that version take a blah blah blah and join us on
00:39:07.000 the on the porch i don't know well what do you think about i just had a fantasy of my own um
00:39:14.660 because i plan to throw parties like that well until my 90s and i just had a maybe to get a
00:39:20.360 flash of what would it be like to have a pre-made cocktail on a serving it's exactly what i was
00:39:25.340 just saying okay it's sitting there for them to take right no no no sitting there i know but i'm
00:39:30.060 saying i was imagining you're not in the bedroom you're actually standing there with them yeah
00:39:34.120 almost like sometimes at a wedding yeah of course oh wow you know my mother does she does a thing
00:39:41.240 I think it's called a door prize okay well there's a few things there's a present under
00:39:46.980 one person's seat that's fun that's fun for a dinner party that's except then my mother also
00:39:53.820 just just can't resist and then and then um Thanksgiving she does a little gift on on
00:40:02.100 everyone's seat i'll have to show you it's very really i'll send you a picture of her table do
00:40:07.100 you think this is i'm laughing to myself thinking because before the pandemic i myself took up the
00:40:12.940 tradition i was throwing holiday parties okay you remember actually you hadn't moved to la yet huh
00:40:18.540 did you ever come to one of my holiday parties i i just i don't know but i certainly wasn't there
00:40:24.100 it's all you were in new york that's why obviously well yeah i'm never i'm never i've never been in
00:40:29.220 LA for yeah no of course pandemic so pre-pandemic during I think I got three under my belt wow the
00:40:35.160 last year no I'm sorry the last two years and this is making me laugh I hired a host helper
00:40:41.700 two years of my party can you believe that I mean good for you because by the way the duties of the
00:40:50.460 hostess are if you are actually serious about throwing a party you are refilling you are it
00:40:55.980 is so much work still with pleasure but it's true you are not social you don't get to sit there
00:41:00.940 you're socializing you gotta balance it out the last two years you would think i owned a home
00:41:05.500 me with my right with my help with my hostess helper changed my life was incredible would
00:41:10.860 never go back well that's the modern way okay the modern way is to go for it on the luxury
00:41:16.840 that you care about okay i feel like the the old way was like there's a laddering of uh first first
00:41:24.920 well first we got to save and get a home okay that's number one you know like that's the dream
00:41:30.280 and then from there you know whatever that it stacks up I feel like the modern way is more like
00:41:35.340 you're renting in a crumbling apartment however caviar yet you're you're applying your eighth day
00:41:42.620 serum yeah well the apartment crumbles around renting is I mean I think owning sounds miserable
00:41:49.760 yeah yeah yeah hell on earth i'll never do it even if you begged me i'd refuse i'll never forget
00:41:57.260 i'm trying to quickly say this is why quick not a story but that the um my my hostess helper austin
00:42:02.440 who was wonderful oh so same one every time same one well i've only only had him twice first year
00:42:07.980 i was like i'm gonna do it was so moved brought him back the next time did he find love at your
00:42:12.020 there was a moment i remember that could happen after a few years well by the way austin was like
00:42:15.940 a gorgeous gay guy and i was like you're at the right exactly that's what i was picturing and i
00:42:20.240 knew it so yeah yeah but i there was a moment and this is when i went wow there was a moment when
00:42:26.880 somebody inevitably the guest dropped a glass it shatters i looked down before i've even had a
00:42:35.040 chance austin's on it the glass is gone it is left up the guest has a new drink in their hand
00:42:40.000 wow no no that that's a thrill i i i was just reminded of a thing of my grandmother
00:42:46.540 grandma joan who was very like elegant and and it was a thing in her manners and and you know
00:42:52.920 the whole thing being like the only one the one true manner is like making people feel comfortable
00:42:59.140 right so absolutely if if you're you know so the whole thing is like they break a glass you go oh
00:43:05.500 i never liked that one anyway it's a precious heirloom you know or whatever of course oh
00:43:09.140 absolutely I don't know I love I love I love oh I saw but this is you're reminding me of something
00:43:13.320 that I have to say yeah is that my mother was hosting and a friend of mine was there and my
00:43:18.920 friend didn't break a glass but knocked a glass over but it didn't break but my friend was visibly
00:43:24.400 felt really uncomfortable and like oh no like yes I did something my mother said don't worry my
00:43:30.520 friend said no no just you know this is so nice and and my mom took her glass and threw it I'm
00:43:36.660 not kidding she was she had had a couple yeah yeah not drunk which is perfect and it was like
00:43:42.580 and I was a little bit like mother it was like my mom was having fun she had had maybe two glasses 0.94
00:43:47.660 of champagne so she was just like that perfect but she did that she took the glass and threw it
00:43:53.020 to make my friend more comfortable incredible and that's Helen okay no no that's incredible
00:43:57.480 and I'll relate the my other grandmother grandma Mimi the uh rabbi's wife right
00:44:04.140 Like she had a classic thing where at the beginning, I guess, of these meals or certain meals or whatever, she would take like the wine she had, tip it, literally spill it on the beginning of the meal, spill it on the thing and go, now we can all relax.
00:44:22.900 That's so cute.
00:44:23.880 And then, are you ready for this?
00:44:25.820 My mother says that then in the kitchen, like five minutes later in the kitchen, grandma would be like, my tablecloth.
00:44:34.140 that's amazing
00:44:36.520 isn't that amazing
00:44:37.320 I get a thrill
00:44:39.940 as does my mother
00:44:41.280 in putting things
00:44:42.460 in the stocking
00:44:43.220 that are unexpectedly
00:44:44.420 high end
00:44:45.860 high end
00:44:46.580 or
00:44:47.000 or
00:44:47.620 solid
00:44:48.300 almost could be
00:44:49.020 their own gift
00:44:49.620 oh wow
00:44:51.240 stockings
00:44:52.500 god it's almost here
00:44:54.900 Christmas is almost here

00:44:57.480 you know that I don't receive
00:44:58.640 Christmas presents
00:44:59.460 and I'll just let that
00:45:02.420 sadness kind of linger there
00:45:03.820 just to say
00:45:05.240 wait but what happened to you
00:45:06.040 as a child
00:45:06.660 the Bacchanalia

00:47:05.520 like
00:47:05.940 like things that she gives
00:47:07.780 that might end up
00:47:08.560 in like a stocking
00:47:09.040 we still have to do Moog
00:47:10.340 we still have to do
00:47:10.920 an episode 1.00
00:47:11.260 if it's our moms 1.00
00:47:12.160 oh right
00:47:13.020 I forgot
00:47:13.740 yeah
00:47:15.720 imagine though
00:47:18.060 it's
00:47:18.360 it's them talking
00:47:19.320 about us
00:47:20.020 I know
00:47:21.560 which is actually
00:47:22.140 like maybe
00:47:22.540 I don't know
00:47:22.880 if we can do that
00:47:23.400 we're like
00:47:25.120 two weeks out of Christmas
00:47:26.080 can you believe this
00:47:26.860 me alone on Christmas
00:47:28.280 in new york you're never alone if you're in new york it's gonna be hard yeah well i agree and we're
00:47:34.820 we're gonna work on that we're gonna figure that out great i started googling like christmas
00:47:38.420 cocktail recipes and then also christmas mocktail recipes like because like i i can't like add
00:47:46.760 something to christmas eve that like doesn't account for like the non-drinkers do you know
00:47:50.980 what i mean like i'm doing a fun thing this year and it's like only for for myself but then you go
00:47:56.460 what is, what's exciting to drink? What? Oh, I love a Pimm's cup and you can do a virgin Pimm's
00:48:03.760 cup kind of. And what is Pimm's cup again? I forgot. Already forgetting. It was, it was one
00:48:07.740 of those things where I was having Pimm's cup one Christmas. I was completely obsessed with Pimm's
00:48:14.000 cup. So what it is, is Pimm's liquor, lemon juice, ginger. It's really just Pimm's lemon juice,
00:48:22.520 ginger and then you do a cucumber slice mint a lemon wheel an orange wheel put on ice and what's
00:48:28.720 great is that it's a pitcher cocktail so you can make it for a group it's great because i remember
00:48:32.660 one christmas that's the other thing for everyone you once had a party 15 years ago and i think
00:48:39.720 there were two punch bowls and yes yes it was so fucking cool so i started looking at christmas
00:48:44.900 punch too but i'm trying to like because i love making a punch to me the the mocktail or to even
00:48:50.760 use that word isn't even what I want like a fun Christmas drink it's like it shouldn't be like
00:48:56.240 mimicking the cocktail it has to be good on something like for example like a mulled cider
00:49:00.560 is just delicious right like a hot mulled like apple cider I don't even know what mulled is but
00:49:06.120 you know what I mean like kind of like that one I have at Thanksgiving with the cranberry and the
00:49:09.580 cloves and the cinnamon sticks and the whole thing so I'm like that is an option
00:49:14.820 I'm imagining this like, you know, those, the market, the holiday markets in New York.
00:49:19.660 God.
00:49:20.760 Strolling through those, the one in Columbus Circle, the one in like Bryant Park, you know.
00:49:25.660 Honestly, are you ready?
00:49:26.420 No.
00:49:27.020 This is actually my first Christmas in New York City.
00:49:29.340 Can you believe that?
00:49:29.940 Oh, okay.
00:49:31.220 God, is that true?
00:49:31.800 Well, yeah, it is.
00:49:32.720 Maybe we'll go together because it's really fun, even though I don't always do success.
00:49:37.080 I'm not going to obsess and try to lock you down, but yeah.
00:49:39.440 No, yeah.
00:49:40.120 and you know
00:49:42.020 you go
00:49:42.460 you get
00:49:42.980 the one that would go
00:49:45.240 into Columbus Circle
00:49:46.160 these huge
00:49:47.260 gingerbread cookies
00:49:48.260 gingerbread men
00:49:49.640 and women
00:49:50.200 and
00:49:52.940 and I get that
00:49:58.040 and a hot cider
00:49:59.480 just like calling them 0.97
00:50:00.880 men and women
00:50:01.340 that like
00:50:01.920 like
00:50:02.800 it's one thing to say
00:50:03.980 ginger man
00:50:04.680 or whatever 0.98
00:50:05.240 gingerbread woman
