Starting point is 00:05:53 I'll say, I mean, there's. so many chances for this to go wrong, but I don't feel like you're going to trick us so early, so I'll say yeah, I have a reason. All right. So Colin and Karen say no, Chris says yes. It is not Sweden. It is Switzerland, which is another
Starting point is 00:06:08 country that people often confuse with Sweden. Oh, okay. When you're driving in this country, there's no right turn on red. Sweden, not Sweden. I'll say, yeah. All right. Colin, Chris say yes.

Starting point is 00:07:09 I just see him looking around. It's like, oh, my whole family is here. Who's Santa? I gotta go. Oh, I got an important call. See you guys. Ring, ring. That was my centiphone.
Starting point is 00:07:23 Yeah, it's not an alter ego. I think the family knows. I'm pretty sure the family's in on it. No, I think you have to pretend that they're Santa while you're doing it. Just humor, Dad. He doesn't know that we know. They include Swarte Pete, Santa Claus's sidekick, in their celebrations. What's the source?
Starting point is 00:07:43 Black Pete. Black Pete. Is that her name? Is that like, it could be a horse? Oh, I'll tell you. It's a person dressed in black face and like a Renaissance. outfit.

Starting point is 00:32:07 Oh, okay. So they're connected. Right for the wrong reason. Yeah, that's fine. Yeah. I'm still right. Ovalteen. Its original name was Oval Maltine, a combo of two of its main ingredients.
