It's so quif. So we've had a message here, the truth about turkey clapping. So just to bring people up to speed, or Paris, do you want to fill people in on why there's a little scandal around this? For those that missed it, on the live flat slam, we were reading a, for the live beef brothers, we were reading at a beef where someone was talking about clapping the turkey and it was a tradition. We all loved the tradition. We thought this was a great idea. The family got really early in the morning,

we clapped the turkey. Since then, we've been informed that clapping the turkey was a lie that I invented in a game in 2016 during a live flat slam. We're playing two truths in a lie and I invented it as a game in 2016 during a live flat slam, we're playing two truths in a lie and I invented it as a tradition in America and we get the feeling that Carl who submitted the beef was repurposing an old Pappy's idea from the PCU to bring to the table once again. None of us spotted it. We went ahead

with it, we celebrated it and there's been you know some people of us spotted it. We went ahead with it, we celebrated it. And there's been, you know, some people picked up on it, not us, but I can't stress enough, we had no idea, but it was only that people started getting in touch to go, you know, you know that to you. You're the ex-girlfriend in this scenario. It was literally a leg at a jabber of herself. So Karl has got back in touch. Karl here. So here's the 100% truth people. Finally.

This has actually solved a mystery for me simultaneously. The Turkey clapping story, unfortunately, is untrue. I have never clapped a turkey in my slippers in a garage. What happened is this. Years ago we used to play a game of new starters at work called Noppasits, i.e. not opposites. For fun, one of us would suddenly postulate an opinion about the boring minutiae of something ridiculous and someone else would chirp in with an opposite opinion on the same stupid subject. Everyone in the office would eventually join in knowing it was nonsense. We'd then see

if the newbie joined in on either side, therefore accepting the ridiculous conceit in the middle of the made up row. Oh, I see, I see. It's like a sort of gentle, are you going to fit in or not? Not quite a hazing ritual, but like that kind of thing, right? So he's given some examples here. Do you get the exesand done before completion or do you wait until the sale of the house has gone through? Did you all used to line up and kiss the mayor? It's cool on stage, or was it in a classroom?

This is amazing. I'll be in the classroom. This is superb. So you just say something as if it's completely, oh, you're used to do this. Oh my God, yeah. Let's go. I was talking to someone at work the other day.

It was yesterday, in fact, and he was talking about his mate who insisted that his dad's job during the summer was walking down the beach front front selling cold sand, right? Right. It was like, cold sand, cold sand everybody. Oh, what's a cold sand? Get your cold sand. And the idea was that you would get on on a really hot day, you'd get cold sand to put in the bottom of your car. So when you got into the car, your feet would be on cold sand. And it sort of makes no sense at all, but there's a sort of weird logic to it, like, you know, this, this

bloke is probably in his 50s, you know, so we're talking about, we're talking about a, a dad who would have been working in the, you know, 60s, 70s, selling cold sand down the sea front. You can imagine the market cold sand man. Yeah, it's a cold sand man been passed. I thank God for that. Still got to catch him. It's that kind of thing, isn't it? The one that worked the best and trapped the most victims was, do you clap the turkey in the garage the night before or when it's arriving on the table on Christmas day? So that was one of cars. I'm presuming I'd listen to puppies on the way in and it just came out. After that, after that it became the standard. When I saw the

plea I thought, that'll do without even thinking about where it would have come from in the first instance. So it turns out that Carl, it's nicked it from us, forgot about it. Well, he magpied it, he magpied it from us, forgot about it and then repeated it back to us. This story is even better than I expected. We forgot about it. This is the true universe. He's forgotten. The amazing. The path is so forgettable is the content. But even the stuff we really enjoy gets forgotten about. No, it's still like that. It's still like that. Everyone's taking it into their, deep into their bones. Yeah.

And just not remembered it. I mean, it's, yeah, it becomes part of your DNA, but it doesn't become part of your memory. So in your week, in your ears, canals, in your bones. Your bone structure, yeah. Without even thinking of where I'm coming from, the first, court red handed, oh well, I promise I've never submitted a fake baby before.

And from now on, I won't lie to you again. Yours with a fake name, Carl. Lovely. And for I promise I've never submitted a fake name before, he's put a little asterisk by it. And he says, really? And then and from now,'ve never submitted a fake name before. He's put a little asterisk by it and he says, really? And then, and from now, he says, double asterisk, you're only promised not to lie on the second half of the sentence.

You're like an amazing lawyer. I won't lie to you again. Yours the fake name is that lying Carl. Well, Carl, thank you so much for that because you know what? That's a twist that none of us could have seen. We thought you were just playing As for Fools. It turns out we're all fools together. because you know what, that's a twist that none of us could have seen. We thought you were just playing As for Fools, it turns out we're all fools together.

We're all fools. It's not the true spirit of Christmas. Oh, wonderful. Well, Mary Christmas Carl and Mary Christmas to all our listeners, of course. So we're gonna take a little short break. If you've not said this already, we're gonna take a little short break of 18 months.

Yeah. short break. If we've not said this already, we're going to take a little short break of our 18 months of a few weeks and we're going to be back in 2020 with some news done. 2020. Oh bloody hell. We're taking a few, you know what? I feel like I didn't get enough of a buy on the cherry of 2020. That's such a good year. Yeah, let's go back and revel in 2020. Which is a bit of a time machine. We're traveling back to March 2020. So we'll see you back there, guys. Everyone is welcome back in 2020. And guys, don't forget hashtag be kind in 2020 and be
