Hello, folks, and hey, Bear.
Welcome to the Nate Land podcast, Nate Bargetti, Brian Bates.
Aaron Weber, Dusty Slate.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Happy Thanksgiving.
It's tomorrow.
This might be my favorite holiday.
Well.
In the given category.
Yeah.
Might be.
One of the few that Dusty believes in.
Yeah.
I think it's a good one.
I think it's a good, I think it's a good American holiday.
And it's taking a lot of flack for various reasons, but I don't think any of it's valid.
I think the Thanksgiving is a good holiday.
Some people believe that it was when, you know, back in that time, they were celebrating a biblical holiday of Sukkot.
They think that that's what Thanksgiving turned out to be.
Yeah.
I think it's a great holiday.
We'll get into it today.
Yeah.
We're getting into history and everything, Abe Lincoln and all that.
I mean, if our food wasn't poison now, it would be much better.
Save it, save it, save it.
Yeah.
We pre-recorded this one, so it's, yeah.
We're like a month ago.
We're time travelers today.
Yeah.
So we're all caught up.
Aaron's out of jail.
He's still no comment, right?
Yeah, no comment.
He took the praetor silly money and ran.
His lawyer told him, no comment.
We all noticed this fur jacket right after the day after the Prater silly show.
Wow.
Take it off, take it off.
People even really buy fur anymore.
All right, so we're going to start it, actually start it, with your guys' comments.
Kara Lee Crow.
I mean, she likes Thanksgiving.
Yeah.
There should be a Nateland folks-only dating app.
I'm 26 years old and single,
and I'm tired of having to explain the Nateland lore to men
who have never heard of y'all.
If I meet a nice guy and he loves the pod,
at least I know he's got good taste and a sense of humor.
That's true.
Oh, Brian, you're the resident dating app expert on the podcast.
I mean, do you think, do you think this has legs?
Yeah, I mean, it could be a branch of Maitland Entertainment.
Maybe just start putting yourself out there in the YouTube comments and in the Facebook group.
You know, let people, I guess that's what you're doing here.
She's doing.
Carly Crow.
I mean, look, if you're 26 years old.
Yeah, cast a wide net.
There you go.
If you listen to this, Carly, Kara Lee Crow.
It's a be tough to lose that last name, though.
Such a great name.
It is a great name.
I guess you could just keep it.
that everybody's doing these days.
Yeah.
Well, like stage your kind of middle name.
Well, it's like, it kind of like is your middle name now.
Carolee Crow Smith or something.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
What would a cool last name be to go with Crow?
Carly Crow.
Bar.
Bar.
Bar.
Crow Bar.
Yeah, yeah.
Now wait, Carly Crow.
It's a real last thing in Sticks.
Medicine show.
Who did you say?
I worked with a guy at Outback.
His last name was murder.
M-E-R-D-R, but pronounced murder.
Well, murder would be good.
And a group of crows is called a murder.
Crow murder.
Carly Crow murder.
So, yeah, look for him.
Christian Moscoso.
Salvador Dali.
I think I said Dali, right?
And I bet you thought I was going to say daily.
Correct.
Salvador Dali used to invite friends to a restaurant.
and they would party hard.
When it was time to pay, he would write a check,
but he would draw something on the back
so the art would be worth more than cashing the check.
So he basically figured out a loophole to party for free.
Would you guys consider that a jerk move or genius?
I think if he...
I once heard the story about Bill Cosby, too,
like that he would autograph to check
because he knew they wouldn't cast it
because they'd rather just keep the autograph.
Whoa.
I'd just cash the chat with both of these.
Yeah. Well, you got to think that was a long time ago
in autographs where, I mean, there's no pictures, whatever.
I could see, I would think it's a...
The only thing or reason I don't think it's a jerk move
because it's like, if he's like, I'd do it and cash it or don't.
Yeah.
You know, it's like...
That's their decision.
It's your decision.
it's like I don't think it's uh I understand you would be like man just pay them or maybe draw
and then just pay them cash but you know it's like it would be was the drawing really worth
that much though I mean did we like and I don't you would want to be tipping them at least like yeah
I think at least you know like I mean I don't know I mean I had you know I had a couple of those
paintings hanging on my wall posters when I was you know just out of high school of course but
But was he, like, wealthy while he was alive from art?
I think he was one of the few painters like that who was well known before he died.
Yeah.
So he had a little bit of sway.
Okay.
So, I mean, I guess it could be like, yeah, hang on to this and then see.
But, I mean, I would think we would hear about it if it resurfaced.
You'd think you'd see some framed checks somewhere.
And it seems like no one's.
It's shown a frame check.
No, I've never seen a frame check.
I think people probably, I mean, even if it's Salvador dolly.
Oh.
A couple here.
Oh, wow.
You got a couple here.
That's not a drawing.
It's just everybody's sight.
There's a little bit of a doodle here.
There's a melted clock and a crown.
But is that a check?
That frame looks like it's worth 10 grand.
The check looks weird.
Yeah.
That's a different time.
I want, yeah, I don't know if that's, uh, I would be willing to, I bet they cashed it.
Because then there's also like, at the time, what, when was this?
How, what year was this?
When did Salvador Dali live?
Yeah.
That check said, 1961.
Yeah, he, he died in 89.
Yeah, so like, you know, so if he's having big parties and it's like 1960s, uh, I think he's got to go
to the right place.
I don't think he could do it everywhere.
You can't do this Applebee's or something.
He can't go to Fridays and they're like, oh, Salvador.
He couldn't have come to, if I would have waited on him at Applebee's, I would have
been like, oh, that guy.
That guy showed up.
Yeah.
Western sizzling?
Yeah.
I'm not going to be like, oh, hey.
Western sizzling, you'd keep the check.
Because you'd go, this actually might be worth more than his tab.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, because he really couldn't.
Yeah.
I wouldn't even know that, even if he told me that at Applebees, I'm Salvador Dally.
What?
He goes, I did the melted clock pictures.
You've never seen them?
No.
There you go, no.
Yeah.
You do dogs playing poker?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Even if you told me you did that, I would be like.
You guys weren't into these posters when you were like just out of high school, college age?
I went to his museum.
Yeah.
I feel like everybody I knew had these posters hanging on their wall.
Mm-hmm.
There was a girl working at the kick and chip.
in Charleston. She had the stretched out elephant tattooed on her four arm. Yeah, almost
we need to see more posters to know. It's like this. It's all surrealist. It looks like a bad
acid trip kind of stuff. Everything's melted. I think about that girl a lot, actually. Because she
was very young and she had the Salvador Dali tattooed in her arm. And I was like, I was really into him
when I was like 21. But I don't have any of his stuff at my house now. Like that elephant?
Yeah. But she still has the tattoo.
Yeah
Maybe I'll show that
You think she still does right now
I mean unless she had it covered up
Yeah they can get them covered up now
Now they can do all kinds of stuff
Yeah
Daniel Johnson
Well Nate donate a thousand dollars
To the Boys and Girls Club
For every second Dusty goes over an hour
At his shows
Well that would bankrupt you
Yeah
Yeah I don't
Yeah I mean that every second
I mean geez
But
I don't even notice
I said second
but yeah
I mean I support it
I mean yeah
if I want to
yeah if you want to do it
I
that's over two
that's over two million dollars
if he does what
if he does
34 minutes over
which is
what's your record
how did you do that
if you do 90 minutes
about 32 minutes
is what I've done
it's a hour and 32 minutes
okay so that's
1.9 million
how do you know that is that
by saying that
what did you just do
so I did 32 times 60
that's how many
that's how many
that's how many seconds
Yeah, that little asterisk.
So it's 1,920 seconds, and then multiply that by 1,920 seconds, and then multiply that by 1,000, add 3 zeros to it.
I think it would be more than that somehow.
I mean.
Can't trust math.
I would stop the show.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm going to be right.
But, yeah, it would be, yeah, it'd be a long show.
Lauren Marksbury.
My husband and I used to use Dave Ramsey's system of keeping cash.
in an envelope for different budget categories.
He brought his fun money envelope to the movie theater and watched in horror as all of the
cash in it blew away across the parking lot in a huge gust of wind.
Needless to say, we no longer use that method.
I don't think you can blame that method, though.
Yeah, I think you need.
It's like, what are you doing, fanning it out in the parking lot?
Lick the envelope.
Yeah, wait until you get inside.
Have it in your pocket.
Don't bring Dave Ramsey into this.
hang on to your money out there.
I just want to state for the record, though,
back to Daniel Johnson, just real quick.
I am consistently doing an hour and a half.
Oh, yeah.
What if it was consistently doing an hour and a half?
All right.
What if it was fun, the money did have fun?
Because if you're money, the money had fun.
Somebody got it and somebody had fun with it.
But the money had fun.
The money itself, the cash itself had a lot of fun.
Maybe, yeah, maybe, yeah, but you guys got to hang on to it.
For your last name being Marks, you really need.
I missed it on this.
Well, that's where the berry comes in.
Yeah, yeah.
Weinberg 85.
On the final episode of this podcast, it will be revealed that breakfast was the hashtag dump dusty guy this whole time.
Well, that is true.
That's the only way that it would be fun for me.
Yeah.
There's no way I'm getting up that early in the morning to do that every week.
This guy's on it.
Yeah.
He's like one of the first ones every week.
Yeah, I blocked him from all my social media.
He started doing it on all my post and I go, well, all right, you're gone.
You know, other people's podcast that you're wrong.
He still does that.
I can't stop that.
Yeah.
You can ask, but.
Have you ever heard of the dead internet theory?
I think so, yeah.
Yeah, that just most of the activity, most of the content on the internet is either fake or bots or basically.
basically there's this illusion that there's all this happening, but it's the internet's dead and it's all just, I think there's the, what if the whole Nateland comment? It's all fake and it's all dead. And there's, it's just you. Oh, just me posted up? Just you. You've, yeah. That's a lot of questions. I've never heard of the dead internet. Like, they just think. Well, I've heard that like if you go to Google and you go to search something, it used to say like, oh, a million results for this. Yeah. But then you could scroll.
as far as you could go and only get to, say, a thousand results.
You never would get to, there never was that many results.
Yeah, it's a theory that suggests the internet has become artificial, filled with bots
and automatically generated content that creates the illusion of human engagement and
conversation.
Yeah.
I definitely would believe that.
And especially now with AI and it being fake and like you're seeing all this stuff, you're just,
all it's going to do is make you not, you'd like, you'd,
less and less. I think about that even, like, if I'm looking at Instagram or I'm looking at
Twitter or something, and you're like, it's really pointless. As you go through it, you're like,
I'm not even devouring any really news. It's just people like commenting on, like, where you go,
like, I don't even, this is not even helpful for me as a person. For no one. For no one. It's, yeah, it really is.
And even looking at stuff online is like, what do you, that's even hard because you're going,
what am I looking up?
How do I, like, if you want to go find something and, you know, I know, I know you'd be
look it up for like quick, I get, I get, not saying you wouldn't get rid of it, but it's like,
yeah, you know the smart people are going to be the ones that are still reading books.
That's what I think.
The ones that have set down and really, I don't, I think it, they will be because they're going
be able to sit and really go, well, this is what it said from this. Because you're going to, if you
just, look, if you just do all the evidence online, I don't know if you're going to be able to tell
who, what motivation behind, like where was that story? It's like telephone. So by the time it, you know,
telephone can spread very fast when like one thing comes out and then it can spread, you know.
I can tell you, reading a book in public makes you feel better than everyone real fast.
on the book but yeah i mean anytime i'm reading and public which is not a lot i go man these people
are stupid you're not even reading you're just looking around like yeah look at all these idiots on their
phone look how smart i am well that's where like you have a book too like on your phone like you know
or a kindle yeah and it's just i saw some video and some stumphing where they were like that's the
most attractive thing a man can do now it's just like have a book on them yeah to women they're like
Oh, my God, I got reads.
Yeah.
So just keep one in your pocket.
That seems like that was written by a man that reads in public.
Yes, it does.

Maybe your spreadsheet says you should have an extra thousand dollars left over each month.

J.B. Blanton.

Circus do soly.
Circa.
No, Circa de Soli.
Is that it?
Circus DeLay.
Circus delay.
It's like it hasn't quite started yet.
Keep reading the comment.
I've heard Nate mentioned circus delay on at least two episodes now.
And it sounds like he's saying Circus O'Lay.
That's exactly what I was saying.
I feel like I'm being punked at this point
or my ears fell in me.
Circa Soleil.
Yeah, I've said that to everybody.
What is it?
Circa do...
Cirque des Soleil.
I mean, you kind of say it's fast.
Cirque de Soleil.
Yeah, I would say Cirque de Soleil.
I've only said Circusole.
Like, yeah, Cirque du Soleil...
Cirque du Soleil.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
What's it mean?
it's like what are the it's those shows like no i mean what's the but what's the word mean
circus of the sun yeah all right so lairc circus of the sun that's what it said yeah what do you think
you really mean yeah rachel when i was 10 i attended to sleep over and we were all sleeping
We were all in her sleeping bags in the basement at 11.30 when the group decided to watch Saturday night live.
I announced that I wasn't allowed to watch it and went upstairs to sit in their living room by myself.
I had 1 a.m. I went back downstairs and rejoined the party.
I had no idea how weird my behavior was until years later.
Rachel, it was not weird. I did it too.
Yeah, Rachel, I think this is, you probably were raised by healthy parents.
This is very good.
I think you should pass this down to your kids
You know
If Nate's on
Unless Nate cleans it up
Nate cleans it up and it's good
But yeah
Be proud of yourself
Yeah
You saved yourself some filth out here
You know
Unless Nate's on it
He cleans it up
Yeah
Look Rachel
I did it too
But
So yeah
You know
Yeah
We all do stuff
Criety kid
Cot a kid
Yeah
I mean the fact that you could
even sit by yourself for an hour and a half.
I don't even know what you did,
but the fact that you could do that shows that you're pretty strong.
I had a PE teacher growing up that if you got in trouble, she would make you.
I think you drugged that out.
Did I?
P.E.
I don't know.
I had a fiscal education professor growing up.
PEZED.
FISED.
She would make you sit in the corner and literally twiddle your thumbs.
Wow.
for the whole hour if you got in trouble.
That's why your grip strength so good.
I have to say it, it felt like a year.
Yeah.
And another teacher to make you watch the clock.
Couldn't take your...
Wow.
You had to really watch.
I think I could watch the clock, and I could just...
You would find a way to enjoy it?
Well, I could just get in my own thoughts and just, like, be gone.
Yeah.
How fast would you have to do the thumbs?
Could you just do it like that?
Would you make you do it like that?
No, it's, I mean, it's, it's not tiring, but it is.
I'm getting tired.
Yeah, it's like, it's, it's tough to do after a while.
Do you ever thumb wrestling yourself?
No, no, no, I had friends growing up.
I'm talking about when you're in the corner.
I don't tell you bet just a general.
I probably would have done that.
Yeah, just one, two, three, four, I declare thumb, is that what you guys did?
Oh, big time.
Yeah.
What if one had to win and the one that lost got cut off?
Did you immediately let your left hand?
I think my right thumbs got the edge.
So you're just no question.
Yeah.
There are guys that could play, I were trying to play chess against myself sometimes.
You know, like you make a move, then you walk to the other side of the board and you make a move.
And it's hard to be truly objective about that.
How many times did you walk to where you get?
get to where you just start flipping the board.
Yeah, yeah.
It's like how long...
Look, I metaphorically walk to the other side.
Yeah, I'm not...
Yeah.
You do one walk and then you...
I don't got to do that.
There's no real reason for that.
The point of what I was...
It's hard to really remove yourself from one side.
The objective.
You end up just like almost rooting for one side.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Well, that's probably what the great...
chess players can do like because it's
they can completely remove
themselves and just like play each move objectively
well it's poking holes
in yourself right
mm-hmm right
didn't you say your dad could beat
like a whole class by himself
my dad taught a chess class in high school
and he would every kid out of
he would play the whole class simultaneously
and just like make a move make a move
walk through
just beat everybody wow
he was really good
uh bro
on the door of each bathroom stall they should have a timer on the outside when a person enters the timer starts let everyone knowing letting everyone know how long it's been occupied by that person it might be a motivator motivator to get out quicker i don't mean i'll play devil's app yeah i'm not in on that either yeah i'm not trying to shame people with uh i just like the flip to let them know hey we are waiting but if you're because like someone that's in there sorry
If you're taking care of business and you're like, you know, in some trouble, you got, may take time.
Yeah.
I just picturing, I just picture you going in one and you go, I mean, guys, come on.
You're like, you have to just go, you know, it's like, all right, so this guy's answer should be.
So I guess we all should have good diets.
Yeah, yeah.
Because I don't have a choice.
Yeah.
Or I see you, you have to just stand up and you see the door crack open and then close again to reset.
It just keeps starting it over.
Just a hand comes out.
Yeah, just it goes, there's a lot of that happening.
Once you realize no one's in the bathroom, you just go, you stand up and reset it and sit back down.
And then they hear, you know, your music, that you're playing.
What was your proposal for downtown bathrooms?
Well, oh, I just think that, you know, there could be a switch on there.
Like, you walk in, if all the stalls are full, you could, you know, if you're waiting in line, flip the switch, letting people on the outside know, hey, there are people waiting.
It's not to say, hurry up, but people on the inside know.
But just so on the inside, they know, they know, well, there are people waiting, so don't be, you know, checking your emails.
Yeah, but I know, but are you going to flip it off and then feel like, that's the same thing as this.
Like you would feel like in a hurry
I think the timer though
And it's weird to know that someone's just right out of that door
Well but it's better for the people on the outside
They'd be like I gotta get in there and you're in there playing
You know
I know but I don't see how you're against this and then for that
Well the timer on the outside is a indicator to everyone on the outside
How long you've been in there
So that could be embarrassing yeah yeah but it's like
You let you know too after about 12 minutes you go
You might want to shut that one down
for the day.
Yeah.
That guy's been in there 48 minutes.
Yeah, yeah.
I think, I always think, because people still knock.
I mean, it's like, look, if it's locked, you don't have to knock.
Those people drive me insane.
The door's locked and someone didn't knock.
But the knock, I think, is to just an indicator go, hey, there are people out here.
Ser's a dual purpose.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Women don't even knock.
You know that women don't knock.
They just look under.
Really?
Mm-hmm.
Is that true?
Yeah, yeah.
What do you mean to look under?
I would just like just kind of see if there's feet.
Look under to see feet.
But the knocking's not the default.
I would do that too.
But I mean, the...
Is that true?
Yeah.
But you don't stick your whole face under there.
Yeah.
Just so, yeah.
You get down on the floor.
I would...
I think I'd have done that before.
I like to go through and push all the doors.
Oh, dang, all of these are full.
Yeah, that's...
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hydro.
Yeah, I'd rather jump off the building.
Janet Robinson.
There's a law called Allie's Law that says if a person is denied access to a bathroom in public,
if the person says I can't hold it, they have to let them use it even if it's for employees only.
Oh, I didn't know that. That's good to know.
I have done that, though, where you go into a place and they go, oh, we don't have a bathroom.
And I go, oh, what do you guys do?
you know like the employee says we don't have a bad
oh yeah yeah what do you do and you have to use the battery yeah what but is a is a place
or is it their job to do it oh a people with certain medical conditions oh so now just every
so now everybody just knows alley has ibd yeah inflammatory bowel disease you think when they
want this named after me you think they you think when they came out with this the uh
Allie's like, hey, I don't, I wasn't even upset about it.
And then they go, no, no, we're going to get to the bottom of it.
He goes, I had nothing to do with it.
I really don't.
I want nothing to do with it, all right?
Just if you're making a law, that's fine, but I want nothing to do with it.
In the newspaper next morning, Ali's law, you're like, oh my gosh, they're like,
Ali Johnson, she, uh, explosive diarrhea.
Maybe they spelled it wrong.
and people are like, if you don't let me do it, I'm going to go in the alley.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's, you know, I can't, I can't hold it.
Yeah, that's, really, we don't need to call it that.
Yeah.
No, we're going to.
I'm sorry.
You have IBD and people have IBD, be the face of IBD.
You go, have it be other stuff.
Yeah.
I always think that about those commercials, like constipation commercials.
Like, you know, you're an actor or an actress.
and you finally got a gig as a commercial.
It probably pays well.
But now you're like on a constipation commercial from now on.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like you're always like...
There are way more embarrassing ones, too, than Constituated.
Oh, yeah.
Do that some cracker barrel.
I don't think that's true.
They go hand-in-hand, though.
You should go for some of those.
Yeah, I'll go off of them.
Yeah, you go.
I think you could clean it up.
Yeah.
For what, a constipation is?
No, just like in general
anxiety
Like whatever
Like are you worried
Yeah just like
Any kind of
Like you don't you see this
Of a guy that takes something
Like you don't think he would be
Yeah unbelievable
This guy consumes
There was one
I don't know if I'll get in trouble saying
This weekend
There's one where the guys
The kids play is a DJ
I guess
Or he brings a speaker
And he's got a computer
in the backyard.
And then,
so I didn't know what it was for
and I was kind of like,
because it looked like a weird party
that his parents threw
for him to be a DJ.
And I'm like,
what is this happening?
I mean,
I'm not even kind of looking at the medicine.
I don't even know what any of this is.
And then,
because I enjoy some of the commercials
when they are something like this.
I kind of just like seeing the actors.
I like watching them.
Because it's just,
whatever's on the left side,
is a lunacy.
Whatever they're having to take
is the most extreme thing in the world
but then it's like a fun, nice...
Shopping. Yeah. And then
they were like, the medicine was for schizophrenia.
Yes.
And you're like,
is there a schizophrenia? Would they
know to... Would they be
sitting there? Like...
Maybe he thought it was a real party.
That's why... Yeah, yeah. I understand.
Wait, wait. I don't think...
I don't think...
It sounds like there's a narrative.
I think so.
Look up medicine for schizophrenia.
I think they're advertising it.
And then I thought who would...
Fan app or...
No, I don't know what it's called, but it's like the commercial...
Lithium, Resperian.
Type of commercial DJ.
Yeah, they're like, our kid thinks it's a party.
We've got to get him...
This is before.
Coben Fye?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's him.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Low motivation.
Okay.
Okay, so then he takes a minute and then he shows up to a party.
No, no, no, I've never even seen that front part.
So he's skateboard.
So I don't know where he's at.
So he comes to, yeah, so then he comes up, I don't know if where he can show it.
But then it's like, she comes up to him.
It's like that feels like her mom.
His mom, but he's skateboarded, so I guess he doesn't live there.
And now he's like a DJ.
I guess he's his DJ.
He's only got one speaker.
And all the people are covered.
Number one fast is growing schizophrenia treatment.
So that's what I mean.
So if you're doing schizophrenia treatment,
is someone with schizophrenia just watching the Lions game and goes,
oh, I don't write that down.
Maybe that's what I have.
Schizophrenia?
Isn't it a little more?
Isn't it?
I mean, I thought like that's, there's movies about people of schizophrenia.
I guess people have it lightly,
enough that you would just be watching a commercial?
I think everybody's just insane now
so it's like not that big of a deal.
I mean, am I crazy?
I think if we would be watching this thinking,
is everybody saying this?
Maybe try some COVID-5.
I guess it's like, well, what else do you want to this commercial
for schizophrenia?
I mean, I want him on the roof.
I want him like, I want him doing different
from straight jacket to hanging out with people.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, I want it to like, you know, show me his before.
Yeah, he was in a straight jacket.
Maybe he turns into a werewolf.
Yeah.
Some reason I have that in my head, but I wouldn't mind seeing that.
He's a werewolf.
Now he's a regular person.
And this is for schizophrenia.
I think it should be more extreme.
Is schizophrenia is, you know what?
I don't want to be dissented, you know, whatever.
Because someone could be, they could have it.
Yeah.
And maybe I'm wrong.
And they'll come get you.
Yeah, maybe I'm wrong.
But I just, I thought it was more serious than a commercial on TV.
Like, that's what I thought schizophrenia was.
Like, so I don't, when you see this commercial, is for someone to see this and go,
oh, yeah, you know what?
Let me call my doctor and maybe see if I take this schizophrenia treatment.
I get it.
It has the tone as if they're talking about, like, heartburn or something.
Yes.
And you're like, no, this is actually way more serious.
Yes, that's exactly it.
Right.
That's what I mean.
So schizophrenia.
The juxtaposition of a very serious mental illness with a kid DJing like a kickback in some
backyard is, yeah, it's pretty funny.
Yeah, and it's like he's like, he's like, he's like,
No motivation, know this, no that.
You're like, well, that's not schizophrenia.
Like, schizophrenia, I think people are in mental hospital.
Like, is it, unless I'm just wrong on, where else can they, what, how low can it get?
I think it's, yeah, they're varying degrees.
I think check with your local DJ.
Yeah.
I mean, is that even what, that girl, what's on the screen?
That's what I want to know.
Yeah, it's the number one fastest growing, Schizophren,
schizophrenia treatment.
So schizophrenia is getting pretty serious out here, it sounds like.
Yeah, it's wild, dude.
What?
All right.
All right.
I don't know how we got in there.
Allie's law.
Yeah, from bathroom.
But I've been wondering that all week.
I go, like, what is this?
Who let the homeless guy DJ?
I feel like, did you talk about this for a while?
It's on TV all the time.
I bet you did you talk about this for like half an hour after you?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, dude.
I was like, I don't know what the...
Well, I didn't know it's schizophrenia.
I was talking about just something else in general
that I just enjoyed the commercial
because I didn't understand what it was.
And then that popped up at the end.
Yeah, well, the commercial didn't make sense
because he's clearly...
I would imagine DJing.
He's got one screen
and then he's got his computer
and...
So I'd imagine he's being a DJ?
And so now there's skate...
So I guess he still lives at home.
I like that that girl's in it sometimes.
They skateboarded different ways.
And then he comes home to,
no,
he skateboards to a party.
He's having trouble managing his symptoms.
Okay.
So he can't fulfill his obligations.
But he skateboarded to a party.
Yeah.
It looks like it's not his party, right?
And so then they hired him to be the DJ.
So then he's going to like,
all right,
I'm going to be the DJ.
But his mom's there.
She's not real.
But his mom shows up.
In his mind,
his mom's there.
Oh, so maybe that.
that's it. No, I don't think it's that deep. A beautiful mind is real. That's what they should be.
Yeah. They should be like when the mom comes up, they should type in, he does not see, no one sees that mom.
He says, imagine what I could be. That would make sense. I could be social. I could be at parties.
Dusty's right. Yeah. The mom should be portrayed to us as he does not. Only he sees her.
I like that my video is next after the schizophrenia video, though. But he skates board.
Well, this is my own messed up algorithm.
of now.
Yeah, it's just unsaltering.
I'll say something they do or are doing in this commercial that I don't mind.
The party's in the front yard.
Yeah.
And I don't mind that.
I like that.
I like that.
You don't see a front yard party.
You don't see a front yard party.
And I like a front yard party.
Like the schizophrenic guy showed up and shook hands with the dog.
I thought it recently they had, I saw a house.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Or if the dog understood him.
Yeah.
Like, dog's the only one really there.
Yeah.
The dog is the only one that knows him.
It's, I, I saw a house with a pool in the front, and I thought that was a great idea.
Well, was it above ground pool?
No, and it was a nice.
No, it was very nice.
I've never seen a front yard pool.
If you really went, if you had your house set up and you had a good view, because usually your view is going to be great in the front, you know, you don't, your front porch is awesome.
You want to sit out in it, like, just move everything to the front.
and the back could really be more like,
don't you want a little privacy at the pool?
I like the front yard too, though.
I'm with you.
James Gregory has a bit on the front porch versus the deck.
The deck ruined everything.
When we built the deck, everybody suddenly was not hanging out with each other.
Yeah, yeah.
So I agree that they're throwing a party.
And it might be because he's not allowed in the house.
Yeah.
So they go, he goes, well, how am I supposed to get to the back?
I can't go through the house.
And they go, well, we're just doing it in the front yard.
and this was
Yeah, you don't want him in the house
We'll invite him to the party
But he's got to come up front
It's not an improvement
Across a range of symptoms
Of positive and negative
Most people taking
They saw no substantial weight grain
But why he's got his backpack and stuff on
And he's like, well that's right
But he's at his house maybe
He's also homeless
Well he's at his house though
is because his mom unless that's not his mom
that must not be his mom maybe like it's his aunt
oh no that's his house
no I think he look I think he's an adult
so that's his house
lives by the idea he lives by himself
they're with a roommate this makes sense
he's having trouble managing the symptoms of his
and his mom booked him
and he's as a DJ
his mom goes you want to DJ our cousins
you know no no no his mom booked him
because he's on this
He's got schizophrenia.
I don't know if he can work somewhere.
And then he, so she books him every Saturday,
and he thinks it's a real gig.
I think this commercial is normalizing schizophrenia.
Well, it's, it is a, it's a common mental race.
Brian has taken Cobenify for schizophrenia, so.
If you're listening, go look up Cobitify commercial on YouTube.
See what we're talking about.
Brian, well, this is Brian, oh, is taking it.
Oh, so he is.
So maybe, like, Brian, I'm not trying to, yeah, I guess I was just, you know, we've come a long way from what I thought schizophrenia was to it just being an average.
Like, it just is like on during the Cleveland Bengals game or something.
You know, it's like, it seems insane.
Binkles.
Yeah. I agree with you.
Eddie, hey, Brian, you're not Ali's law. So that's something to be proud of.

Kindle Hurst. As a kid, I studied atlases and know the general location of several cities
that I've never visited. I enjoy looking out the window during lower altitude flights,
looking for landmarks to determine where we are on the flight path. I've never been to
the state of Kentucky, but successfully recognized the city of Owensboro from the air.
So it seems like all that study in, he's, it's worked to one.
Yeah. I just did a corporate gig in Owensboro.
That's weird. I've never heard of Owensboro. And then I just did a corporate there.
Our first guest, John Augusting, is from Owensboro.
Wow. Yeah. I had the worst turbulence in years this weekend.
where it was like, it was almost like a boat on a lake where it was like, go-goon, go-goon.
And, you know, you just look ahead and you see everybody's head swaying with it.
It's, uh, it's pretty jarring.
It lasted like almost 10 minutes of that, you know?
Wow.
Really makes you think about some stuff.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I've been in where, I mean, you're just doosh, doosh.
Yeah.
I was with Jay Flake, slept through the whole thing.
Did he?
Wow.
Yeah, I almost woke him up.
I was like, I want you to.
experience.
Yeah, you should have to deal with this, too.
Yeah, that's nice of you.
I was thinking about other people.
He could have just died in his sleep, you want to go.
Hey, buddy, we're about to go down.
Got any last words?
I mean, cool.
Yeah.
Annie Finley.
My niece was about 16 years old, the first time she flew, and she got the window seat.
About an hour into the flight, she asked, with all seriousness, where are the lines that separate the states?
You know, the ones you see on the map.
She generally believed that there would be visible lines dividing each state, making it look like a map of the U.S.
She's now 26 and remind her of that at least a couple of times each year.
That does sound like funny that you would.
Yeah.
I can see that.
I get how you think that because there are visible borders for the countries.
In some parts, right?
No.
Yeah, there's a wall between Mexico and the United States.
Oh, yeah, but I mean...
The Great Wall of China.
But Canada is not.
I mean, there's a visible border in some parts.
Europe didn't have borders on all that's...
I think you still got to, like, don't you have to go through something to get to each country, though?
You've got to go through a gate, at least.
I was at Niagara Falls this weekend.
Canada's about 100 yards away.
It looked like just going into like a parking garage.
Yeah.
It looked pretty easy to get through.
Canada?
Yeah.
Yeah, Canada's just right.
I guess depending on where you're at.
Yeah, yeah.
If you're going like through Buffalo, it's pretty serious.
Did you ask to do the barrel thing?
Wait, wait.
Ride a barrel over there Niagara Falls.
What are you talking about?
You know people have done that?
No, I don't know.
You don't know people have done that?
No, I've never heard that.
Yeah, they'd get in a barrel and go over the navigation.
Oh, God.
Really?
Yeah.
And they survived it?
Some.
Yeah, some, not all.
I don't meant not very little, actually.
Was it better or worse than you expected?
Well, I didn't bring my passport.
I couldn't go to the Canadian side.
Everybody said you got to go to the Canadian side because they have the way better view.
And so I only really saw it from the side.
Yeah.
And we had limited.
But when you stand close to it, even on that side.
We were still getting misted by it.
Yeah, well, there's one part you can go where you're just kind of right on the edge where it's going over
and you're really close to it.
It's pretty remarkable how powerful that water is just.
It looks insane, the speed that it's moving off there.
But I probably could have walked farther and found a better view.
But I was like, I think I get it.
The Canadian side is pretty amazing, though.
If you ever get that chance, it's pretty amazing.
People have said that you see it so much on TV that it doesn't seem that.
amazing, but I don't know. I was there, and I was like, this is pretty amazing.
Yeah.
I'm pretty cynical about everything.
Yeah.
Have you seen the Grand Canyon?
No.
That's how I felt about the Grand Canyon.
I bet you feel that way, too, where you're like, the pictures don't do it justice.
Yeah, but you know what I thought about the Grand Canyon was kind of the opposite, because
it's like you can only see the scope of what you can see is like, it's hard to, you know,
you're seeing one little thing.
Favorite quotes from the early days of the pot.
So the Grand Canyon is so big, you almost don't even care because it's so big.
It's like too big to care about it.
Well, it's like when you fly over it in any commercial flight.
You get a great view of it.
You can then go like, that's nuts, dude.
And you can see how big it is.
But it's, yeah, when you're there, I mean, I still go see it.
But it's just, yeah, I mean, you can't even imagine.
It's like you're seeing, like, one part of it.
Uh, Heather Waldridge, I rewatch Tennessee kid last night and wondered if Nate ever got his name updated on Delta.
I, uh, it's not on their, not, not through Delta, but there was a way, because I like for my flights, uh, we have to have a travel person that books my flight. And so they were able to do it where I never ran into that problem again. And I would still get the points.
But on my Delta, no, Delta was Nathaniel, right?
Whatever, whichever it was, vice versa.
But I do, I think it's, yeah.
No one ever, like, officially came in from Delta and said, we got it.
But I'd always have a lot of Delta flight attendants, bring it up.
No, bring up the bit.
Mm-hmm.
or a frames are the perfect gift when you have somebody in your life and all they want for Christmas is you remember that song you ever heard that song for the rights of that
that's why I sang it a melodically our family lives all over the place we're all in different cities the holidays can sometimes just be hard logistically getting everybody together that's why I don't want to even meet them I just want to show them pictures on my aura frame
It means so much to get that quality.
I was joking about that.
We're trying to get together.
But it's a lot.
It is a lot.
Like, obviously, in-person times the best,
but when you can't do that,
Aura Frames comes in for the win.
With Aura Frames,
you can download the ORA app,
connected to Wi-Fi.
You can even preload some pictures
on that frame before you give it
to your family member.
But then when it's there, dude,
you can just keep them updated.
Just dump pictures on there.
Here's what I've been up to.
Here's what you've been missing.
You can't see me.
I can't see me.
I can't see you, but, you know, you can check in on what I'm doing.
You can't wrap togetherness in a gift, but you can frame it.
Ooh, that's good, Erin. That is good.
They came up with that. That wasn't me.
That's pretty good. I wish I came up with that.
Yeah.
But you can put a bow on it, too, with laughter.
That's not as good.

Well, this week is Thanksgiving.
We're talking about Thanksgiving.
As I said, off the top, something that,
We all participate in.
So that's rare, right?
Yeah.
And there's some debate about when the first Thanksgiving was.
The traditional story, pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock.
They had their first successful corn harvest that the Native American showed them how to do.
So they celebrated with Thanksgiving 1621, three-day festival, 50 pilgrims,
90 Native Americans.
That's the traditional story.
Now, St. Augustine, Florida, claims that they did it, like 60 years earlier, some other places that claim it, but this is the one that took.
Okay.
Any questions?
It's just because it was probably up.
It was up near New York.
Yeah.
New York gets everything.
This is what I was.
But in Pennsylvania, like, that's where everything kind of was.
Like, even after this.
It was James Town.
So it's like...
James Town Colony was the first.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
But I'm saying because it was up there,
and that's where a civilization kind of,
when it all got going,
it all got going there.
So if you look at like when people,
you know,
most people just came over and went there.
So no one was down here at St. Augustine,
Florida.
So it's like you're just going to get swallowed up by,
you know,
everybody's like,
well,
we're here.
They're small market.
Yeah.
I think St. Augustine claims to be the oldest city in America.
They do. They do. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. This is what I at all, this is kind of what I've come to believe about that. And not by just age. Yeah. The earliest pilgrims came over and like in the first year they came over, they almost starved to death. And then the Native Americans save them by, you know, I guess still that same sort of thing, teaching them how to grow certain things. But, you know, brought food. I think they gave them food directly. Yeah, brought food to them and saved them. So they were.
were so thankful that they started to annually kind of celebrate this through their harvest.
And, you know, so it started, because people really started to hate on Thanksgiving because of
things that eventually would happen to native people. But in the beginning, it was like, it was
this beautiful kind of friendship sharing of things. I think about half died from the original
pilgrims that came. Oh, they all died. Half died. Yeah, they all died eventually. I feel like back
then half died always yeah yeah it was half tied yeah it really like i mean anything you go do
yeah yeah bob got diarrhea and took his whole family out yeah but that's why i like thanks him
i wonder if people came back from those times if you brought them back now they would be remarkable at
how long people that their family wouldn't die like if wonder if that would be the one thing they say
like you could be like you could show them the internet you could show them planes you could show all this
stuff and they would just be like the fact that you got to live with your family for 80 90 years
is insane like we were you know 20 tops was like like that I wonder if that would yeah I used to have a
joke about that they'd be like well he lived to be 25 he led a good life yeah yeah because it's all
about expectations right right in the Bible if you're living to be 900 then oh man he died at
6.50. That's tragic.
Mm-hmm.
So...
You had so much more new.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There was no turkey on the menu.
First Thanksgiving.
It was venison, duck, goose, oysters, lobster eel, and fish were likely served.
Okay.
I don't believe that.
When did turkey get involved?
Why don't you believe that?
Well, most of those things that you listed would be like unclean animals.
And so I think that I don't...
I feel like eels look pretty clean.
I just, well, I think that the original pilgrims, I think, would probably eat more biblical diets.
That's just my belief.
I got no evidence for it.
But all of those things other than the deer, I feel like, are all unclean animals.
I feel like if they were starving, I feel like push comes to shove, they're just going to eat.
Yeah, but it'd be easier to go get a turkey than an eel.
Yeah.
And a lobster.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I think that's stupid, Aaron.
to my head. I'm sorry, God.
Notre Dame.
I think fishing was also a big part of what the Native American showed, though.
That is true.
But fishing, you know, there's a...
Shocking, they didn't even have it figured out.
Trout, there's, you know, all kinds of clean fish.
How dumb were the pilgrims that they never figured any of this out on their own?
I bet they knew how to fish.
Oh, they go, I guess we can't eat here.
Yeah, yeah.
And he goes, there's fish.
They go, we don't have fish.
I mean, if we believe these people sailed all the way across the ocean, I bet they knew
how to fish.
I bet they caught fish
when they had to catch fish
on the way over to eat.
I just think they were ill prepared
for the first real winter
and all that.
But lobster and eel,
they may not have had those before.
Yeah.
It's probably a different way
to catch those.
Yeah.
So I don't know when turkey
got involved.
Is lobster only here?
They have lobster.
I don't know.
Because lobster,
I feel, you know, it's got a French accent and aerial.
They're found in all the world's oceans,
but they have the specific species that we're thinking of
is concentrated on the Atlantic coast of North America and Europe.
Yeah, so they're in Europe.
So they would have had lobster.
European lobster.
You've got a bunch of other types that I've never heard of.
Yeah, I think they have.
I just think, like, you can really get it on our coast.
And maybe they were eating all that stuff.
I just, that's not what I like to believe.
So there was a woman named Sarah Hale, H-A-L-E,
and she wrote Mary Had a Little Lamb.
Oh, great song.
I sing that song to my kids a lot.
Mary had a little lamb, little, okay.
She wrote the lyrics or the music too?
She was a musician.
I don't know.
She wrote the song.
Okay.
Which came first, yeah.
I don't know that there is really music to it, right?
You just, yeah, it's a song.
I just sing it.
Yeah, but I think you just sing it.
It's like Acapello.
Yeah.
It would have been Acapello.
Maybe they've added music to it.
You mean the tune?
Like the...
Dune, do, do, do.
I think the lyrics first.
The lyrics first.
I don't know if pianos were around them.
You could still write the notes, guys.
There's a melody to it.
But they wouldn't write notes from not having a piano.
What does she go write notes?
And you go, what's that for?
And they go, one day, a piano will be invented.
And then you can use this for the...
Yeah, we just got to kill some elephants.
Yeah.
Well, you tell me these people...
Yeah, they weren't...
You're old for two.
Yeah, you look really dumb, Aaron.
Yeah, my bad, guys.
Yeah, that's the dumb...
What about Sarah Hale? What did you do?
Well, besides writing Mary had a little lamb,
she is called the Mother of Thanksgiving
because it was originally only celebrated,
mostly in New England,
but she thought everybody should celebrate it.
And so she started writing a letter to the president every year for 17 years.
She wrote to Zachary Taylor, Millard Fillmore, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan,
Abraham Lincoln.
Finally, Abraham Lincoln said, okay, let's let him's not going to leave us alone.
So let's just do it.
And he established, thinks he was a national holiday in 1863.
It was considered a unifying day after the stress of the Civil War.
Oh, the Civil War was still going on.
Yeah, so that's, but anyway.
So she is the mother thinks that.
She's the one that just kept badgering them to make it a national holiday.
What do you think she's more proud of that or that Mary had a little lamb?
I mean, those are two pretty great accomplishments.
They are.
In one life.
I would say Mary had a little lamb, though.
Like the other one, you just were, I mean, still the fact that it still hung on.
How did she?
Did she ever make money on it?
Mary had a little lamb
She had some novels published
She was a writer
So she made some money from that
I don't know if Mary had a little lamb
Was copyrighted or anything
She lived to 89 or 90
To 90 years old
It's based on a true story
Mary had a little lamb
I think I heard that somewhere
The lamb followed her to school
And the kids loved it
They loved to watch it laugh and play.
Oh, yeah?
It made them laugh and play.
Yeah, I could see that.
So her husband died.
Because it was against the rules to take a Lambda school back then.
This woman's husband died in 1822.
She wore black for the rest of her life in perpetual morning.
She died in 1879.
So for 77 or wait, wait.
57 years.
When did she write Mary Head a Little Lamb?
She sounds like a dramatic lady, I'll tell you that.
Yeah.
1830 it was published.
So that was...
She wrote it in black.
She did.
Eight years after her house.
She wrote it in morning.
I wonder if then they were like, the children were singing it happily.
And she goes, it's a sad song.
Is there more to...
All right.
You think there's more to the original song?
Yeah.
Why does the lamb love Mary-Soe?
Mary-Soe, Mary.
This isn't even the version of I'm thinking of right here.
Yeah.
Well, now there's a new.
No, that's it.
It's fleece was white as snow.
And the teacher turned him out, but he still, still he lingered near.
Yeah, I don't know all this.
Yeah, it's probably a much darker story.
I got to get into that Sarah Hale-Marry's lamb.
Two other verses to that, I don't know about.
Wow.
We're just repeating Little Lamb over and over there.
When was the piano invented?
The piano was invented.
It has predecessors.
Yeah, classical.
There's a harpsichord before.
That's where like most of like, so like Mozart and those guys.
That's what they played?
A lot of them did.
Yeah, they played the harpsichord.
Huh.
So there's no real answers still.
No, well, this is a lot of it's like.
Yeah, things
Just kind of
early 18th in a year.
Yeah, yeah, hundreds and hundreds of years.
So the 1700s, is that right?
Early before that, right?
Yeah, about, about, right around then,
things got going.
Yeah, fortapien.
Yeah, so like what you think of as a piano,
1700s.
Yeah.
Huh?
So she probably did write to music.
No, I don't think she had music.
Well, I said it was a poem,
so maybe it was made into a song later.
Yeah.
So, Thanksgiving is the 4th Thursday of every November.
And it used to be, go ahead, Dusty.
No, no, see what you're going to say.
It used to be the last Thursday of the month.
Sarah Hale's daughter.
Yeah.
But that would make it occasionally.
You know, there's occasionally there'd be five Thursdays in a month.
Yeah.
And one year it fell on November 30th, I think.
and Franklin D. Roosevelt changed it
because they give people more time
to shop for Christmas.
Okay.
It's during the Great Depression.
He wanted people who had more time,
so he changed the law to say it's...
To say, get out there and spend that money, guys.
But there was some confusion at first
because states were practicing two different Thursdays.
So we're sticking with the four,
some doing the fifth.
So then Congress passed a law,
just making it the four Thursdays.
See, I always thought,
To recently, it was the third Thursday.
And I wondered if it was like some Mandela effect that it used to be the third Thursday and then they switched to the fourth, but nobody remembers.
Change in 2016?
Yeah.
Yeah, maybe.
No, I don't think so.
I think it's always been the fourth Thursday.
All right.
So the average number of calories consumed on Thanksgiving is 4,500 calories.
Is that a lot?
Is that just the – yeah, yeah.
That's putting in some work.
What are we supposed to take?
$2,000.
Okay, so you double in it.
Yeah, more than doubling it.
Yeah.
Getting in there.
Is that just the first, that's just like, I don't know when y'all do like the big Thanksgiving meal?
We always do like early after, or like, pre-game.
I don't know, two or three o'clock or something or two o'clock, yeah, yeah.
Is that just that meal or is that include all the follow-up?
No, I think it's probably, I would imagine the whole day.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think so.
Because I actually think my favorite meals are the day after Thanksgiving.
Yeah.
With all the leftovers there, you know.
Take some of the ham, make a sandwich out of it.
The Slay family used to do a great Thanksgiving.
I mean, they really would come together.
What's on the spread?
Well, I mean, Hannah went with me the first time, and she was really blown away by how much food there was.
You know, it's turkey, dressing, ham, cranberry sauce.
You got a bunch of dish, you got casserole, green bean casserole.
The side steal the show.
Potatoes, sweet potato casserole.
You've got banana, banana pudding, apple pie, pecan pie.
I mean, it's...
Pumpkin?
Probably a sweet potato pie.
Okay.
And then there's just, it's just so much of it.
Everybody brings stuff and there's cookies and my...
Hannah was blown away.
Yeah.
Yeah, because they have Canadian Thanksgiving.
Yeah.
Is there like a food element to Canadian Thanksgiving the way that there is for America?
I think it's similar.
Yeah.
But according to her, they were not doing it like we were doing.
Okay.
Yeah. Now, as everybody gets older, as I've complained about on the podcast before, when the older relatives die, it gets, everything gets less good.
Yeah. We lose some recipes. You know what? You know what Canada celebrates Thanksgiving for?
I don't know. The day we let them exist. I think it was when the Prince of Wales health got better.
Oh, really? Yeah. I think that's what I read today. Okay. I've mentioned this fact before, but the day after Thanksgiving is the busiest day of the year for plus.
Summers, they call it Brown Thursday or Brown Friday, excuse me.
Yeah, but it's mainly because people are dumping leftovers, grease, stuff like that down the sink.
Yeah, or at least that's what.
Sure.
Yeah.
It depends on the neighborhood.
Football started as a traditional Thanksgiving.
1876, Yale and Princeton.
The first NFL game was 1920.
That's crazy.
I do love some Thanksgiving football.
Yeah.
It's the best.
Yeah.
It's nice.
Started playing on TV in 1934.
I'll tell you what's not rigged.
The Lions losing every Thanksgiving.
They just can't do it.
Did they not win last year?
I don't know.
Maybe last year.
Yeah, that's been good lately.
Cowboys began playing on Thanksgiving in 1966.
So the Lions have been doing it since, what I say, 30, 34.
Cowboys started in 1966 when General Manager TechSgram signed on to play
because he saw it got national publicity.
And then 2006, I can't believe it's been this long, they added a third NFL game.
I feel like that just started.
They go, are you spending time with your family?
We got another game for you to watch.
Yeah, yeah, that's great.
I think people want stuff to do.
You know what the great night for comedy is the night before Thanksgiving.
It's the drunkenest night in America of the year that Wednesday before.
It's the busiest night of the year for bars, it's Thanksgiving.
It's known as Blackout Wednesday or Drinksgiving.
I like a blackout Wednesday.
Movie theaters are good too.
Yep.
On Thanksgiving.
Yeah.
How about you, Dusty?
When you were drinking days, would you go home to Opelika and meet up with the guys?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
It was a blast.
Yeah.
It was awesome.
I didn't even know it was called Blackout Wednesday when I was doing it.
In Springfield, Missouri, they do Wild Turkey Wednesday.
It's a tradition where it's a local citywide party started at one bar.
Now I think it's spread to other places.
but it is the busiest
the night before
is the busiest night
of the year for bars.
Also, the day before
is the busiest day
of the year for grocery stores.
Oh, yeah,
that makes sense.
All the last minute stuff.
Yep.
Getting in there.
There's a lot of...
Thanksgiving leads a lot of things
in the busiest.
Malls.
Black Friday is the busiest day
of the year for malls.
It's important to the economy
important to the country.
Mm-hmm.
You know?
They got rid of it.
Yeah.
It would not be
good. Well, if they got rid of it, I think you would just go into, like, the Black Friday stuff
and Amazon. Like, you'd be into, like, it'd be purely corporate.
But I think, yeah, yeah, if you got rid of Thanksgiving, then, like, Black Friday, I don't
know if it can just exist as its own thing. It's already kind of dying, I think, right?
What is Thanksgiving? No, no, Black Friday, the actual physical show. Well, because it's like
online, what is it, Cyber Monday? Cyber Monday, yeah. Small business Tuesday.
Yeah, all those days.
Harry Truman is often credited with being the first president to pardon a turkey, but that's
actually not true.
He was the first to receive a ceremonial turkey, but he had it for dinner.
Oh, really?
John F. Kennedy was the first to let a Thanksgiving turkey go, followed by Richard Nixon,
who sent his turkey to a petting zoo.
And now they do it every year.
Now George H.W. Bush made it a turkey pardoning tradition every year.
It's a good idea.
I think they, this year, kill it.
Trump.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
About 50 million Americans tuned in to Thanksgiving Day parade each year.
3.5 million view it in person.
See, that I don't, I don't, a parade I don't get.
I know people are into it.
I've tried.
I don't get it as a television.
I don't either.
I think it's like, you know, it can be nice to have on.
It's just on in the background, you know, there's the peep, you know, there's Snoopy going by, I guess.
Yeah, but I think people get into it.
Well, I think if you were there, yeah, you're seeing them.
They're so big.
It's like being there is like crazy.
And then so, and then they, it's a show.
I mean, you know, they have like Fallon's usually like there and like so they go by and do something.
And it's like, you know, the bands come through.
Yeah, marching bands.
something that's pleasurable that is on TV
that doesn't feel like it's wanting something from you.
Yeah, I'm into it.
Don't they always do a dog show on Thanksgiving too?
Probably.
I feel like it comes on after the parade.
But the first large-scale balloon in the Thanksgiving parade was Felix the Cat.
I love Felix the Cat.
Before that, they were just using zoo animals.
What was Felix the Cat?
It was the cartoon?
Yeah.
I was thinking a he-cliff, but I do like Felix, too.
I was thinking of he-cliff, too.
What did he do?
I don't know.
Okay.
But that's pretty crazy.
They were using zoo animals.
Yeah, before.
They should go back to that.
Yeah.
So then they started doing...
No leashes.
Let them run free.
Running of the, running of the zoo animals.
That could be a tradition.
There's a lot of marathon.
There's a lot of races on Thanksgiving.
Oh, yeah, dude.
Turkey trot.
You're going to do a turkey trot Thanksgiving morning?
I think it's like, yeah, but it's like then you feel like you get to eat.
You get up and then you're like you feel good.
Yeah.
Also, that's just your right as an American to eat.
To eat.
I know.
You don't need to justify it physically.
You can just, you know.
But Dustin's saying if you turn the animals loose, that would motivate you to run.
Yeah.
Okay, probably.
Yeah.
But anyway, so they started doing balloons, but they had no plan for deflating the balloons.
So most were simply allowed to float away afterwards.
I just get bat landing on your house in Kansas.
He's just like, what?
Nobody believes you.
Is that Mickey Mouse?
During the 1993 parade, a rip to...
I like old-timey was a lot of like, just let it go, man.
Yeah.
Like old-timey stuff was very much just like, we get it.
Everybody's like, that's amazing.
And there was never what are you going to do with it?
And just that no one cares.
Yeah.
And, I mean, now there's a lot of, everybody's going like, what were we doing with all this stuff?
And you're like, yeah, I mean, I can see it becomes a problem.
But, man, wherever, even though it was a hard time, it's still free in time that you could let a balloon go back in the 20s.
And, I mean, they wouldn't even.
A gigantic balloon.
Yeah.
Size of a house.
Yeah.
You can just let it go.
And they're like.
And if it did land in your town, that would have been in the paper.
Yeah.
It would have been a big deal.
It would have been fun.
Yeah.
You would know about it.
Yeah, it would be like, oh, Owensboro got Snoopy this year.
I think they should actually...
I think they should do that.
Yeah.
Now that would be the Macy's Day's Parade should do that.
At the end of it, you let it go and you see who gets it.
And if your town gets it, you win money.
Yeah.
There's money in the side of that.
A Macy's gift card.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm actually on board of it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We should do that.
A Naitland parade.
And Manhattan and just see how far it goes?
Yeah, just see where it goes.
See if it makes it.
How far would they float?
I mean, it's going to get to Hoboken, maybe.
You think?
Yeah, I don't think they're going to go to Owensboro, Kentucky or any of these other things.
How's, uh...
Balloon, boy, that thing went really far.
How far to go to another state?
I thought it did.
How far...
Well, they, like, can you type in?
How far could it Macy's Day...
You may need to go to chat, GPT, for this one.
Yeah, yeah.
if you go to the dark web.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean,
okay,
the parade route is 2.5 miles.
That's not what I wanted at all.
If we let it go.
If you let it,
because they have to hold it down.
If you let it go.
Okay,
a Macy's parade float could not be let go
and float away like a helium balloon.
The floats are built on truck
or tractor chassis
and are actively driven along the parade route.
They're not airborne for the most part.
Well, let's get them airborne.
Yeah.
Let's get some helium.
Let's get some helium in them.
Let's get something in them and just set them and let them go.
And then they see, you send them off in directions.
Like once it hits the last thing, it goes up, you point one that way, one straight,
wherever it makes it and makes it.
In 1993 parade, a ripped to Woody Woodpecker's hand,
caused him to slowly deflate requiring him to be lower to the ground.
When was that?
193.
Seinfeld episode.
Oh, yeah.
About it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's true.
That's funny.
It was a real thing.
Yeah.
There's Seinfeld episode where it was like a...
Yeah, Woody.
Is it like a statue, Empire State Building?
Yeah.
Thing.
And they knock it.
Knock it out the window and it defilates Woody Woodie?
In 1997, the Barney balloon was ripped along its abdomen due to strong winds,
while Pink Panther had to be stabbed by police in order to be stabilized.
That's the opposite.
Well, you usually hear.
Yeah.
Cat in the hat struck a lamp post at 72nd Street and crumpled to the ground.
So 1997 was a tough year for the parade.
Was it real windy?
I didn't say.
It must have been.
You're a graduate high school.
I remember being windy that day.
After that, they instituted size regulations and required all balloons to be no larger than 70 feet high,
78 feet one. That's where you go wrong, man.
I mean, like, here's why the Macy's Derry Parade would be, they need to be gigantic.
You need them to be the size of buildings.
Yeah.
Like, and then you're watching it, and you're like, goodness, dude.
Like, look at the scale of that thing.
Yeah, when they say how big it can be, well, you're like, well, they'll never get bigger than this.
Yes.
Let it be big.
It needs to be big.
Who cares if they get tore up?
Yeah.
who cares if you lose a lamp post in the city
that's fun that adds to it
yeah
yeah I would have them be so they should be so big
so big as big as
those are huge it's just that it's in New York City so
I know but throw them let us see some context
throw it in Lebanon
well those buildings are big but they didn't even go bigger
Well, you could go bigger than that
I guess you have to have a lot more ropes holding it down
But don't worry about it
If it gets away, it gets away
Yeah, but I thought it can't float
So where's it going to go?
Well, you've got to put helium in it too
I know, but how does it stay up then?
I think they have helium
I think this was bad information from before
A lot of these have helium
So they would float
Yeah
Because the big one right there with Barney's got it looks like
it's got a lot of ropes.
Oh, that's, is it now, that's just the picture?
Is that?
Yeah, that's, no, those are ropes holding it down.
Yeah, that's a lot of ropes, which doesn't make it look as good.
But, uh, yeah, make them, I mean, it should be, I know they're big, but you should have
one that is the size of a building.
I mean, what if you had one that was half the size of the Empire State Building?
That'd be great.
That might be the only one you know.
Eat. A Godzilla one.
Yeah.
What if they did that? They told a story.
Oh, yeah.
And it was Godzilla coming through the city.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
And then if it wreck things, you'd be like, well, yeah.
Yeah, it was all part of the show.
Yeah.
People died.
Yeah, it's a good show.

50% of households serve red wine
with Thanksgiving dinner. Only 10% go with white.
The rest do soft drinks, beer, or cocktails.
What do the Weber's do?
I don't know about drink. I did realize later in life that
my family does do something weird the way
that we serve the food. So my whole life,
I don't think I've ever talked about this on the podcast before.
but when we have a family meal or anything my dad sits at that whoever the man of the house is
sits at the end of the table and all the foods in front of him and he plates everyone's food for him
so he's standing here standing here everybody's sitting he'll make your plate pass it down to you
he'll make your plate pass it down yeah and that's how we did every family meal of mine
growing up and that's just i thought everybody did it like that every Thanksgiving or every meal
every meal that we're at the table he sits there he'll make it yeah and then i will go
go to a friend's house and it's just a free-for-all.
Like, there's got everything late.
I'm like, what's going on here?
Yeah.
And they're like, this is how, this is how it's done.
You're like, I'd like your dad to serve me.
I'd like your dad to sit at the end of the table and make me a plate, please.
And if you wanted seconds, you'd pass your plate back to him and he'd put a little more.
I like that.
It's bizarre.
Another piece to the puzzle.
Yeah.
I mean, that's.
But I ask, you know, I want to start doing that with my family now.
That's how well, yeah.
My dad was raised.
My grandfather would do the same thing.
You'd sit, and I think it's just, oh, I don't know why it started.
I can't think of a practical reason why this would benefit anybody.
Yeah.
But it's just the way that.
It shows the hierarchy of the family.
Well, it does do that.
Yeah, it says, I.
And you want to let the family know.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a, yeah.
You want them to know, don't forget who's in charge.
Yeah, the head of the household.
This meal that your mom made?
Yeah.
I'm in control of it at the end of the table.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What's your grandfather's name?
Faustin Neff Weber
and then Albert
Mahan
My two grandfathers
Yeah
Like the Mayhem
On the commercial
The Mayhem man
Mayhan
That's my mom's maiden name
Mayhand
Yeah
I don't think you're supposed
To give that out
That's true
That's my security
Security
Security question
I mean that's
I was also born at Baptist Hospital
In Montgomery
First pet name was Rocket
I was born at Baptist
Here
in Nashville.
So was he, weren't you?
Mm-mm.
No, you're born in a stable.
Activity scene.
You were like right on the cusp where they go,
no, we had doctors, but we still did it in the barn.
It wasn't like, it didn't all the way flip over.
Like, they were still.
House calls?
Yeah.
They delivered.
Yeah.
Your family, you didn't have alcohol there at Thanksgiving, did you?
We didn't either.
We didn't either.
We do sweet tea.
Yeah, we were all Baptist.
Yeah. We were Catholic.
We got after it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Only male turkeys gobble.
Female turkeys cackle.
A cackle?
That sounds about right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
That's where we're at in the show.
60% of Americans say they'd rather do anything other than think about what they're
grateful for on Thanksgiving.
Wow.
That shows why...
Do you do anything like that at your friend?
Do you ever do a go around say something you're thankful for?
I don't think...
Do you like that kind of stuff?
I don't.
But I don't...
I like that stuff.
We're very grateful family.
But I think tradition, stuff like that is something that we're not...
We don't...
I don't think anybody was really raised like that in our family.
You can start it now, dude.
You're in control.
now. You're exactly right. How often do you think about that as a parent, like I, traditions and
stuff like that? And the responsibility you have to start that stuff. Yeah, I think that.
I mean, look at like, I always think about that stuff being passed down. We ain't got nothing
that's ever been passed down. Like stuff just doesn't. There's no watch. There's no, I have a joke
and I always tried to make it. I forget where it is. I might still be able to do it, actually in a
spot because it's like you know you're like well these were my this and that and you're like
i just don't think we really had that i mean you know my dad's upbringing was like you know pretty
rough so it's like it was just a lot of those traditions and that kind of stuff wasn't there
uh and so i mean maybe i'm forgetting some i mean we had something i forgot like but it's
yeah i don't know if we really did and then where laura's family i think had a little they
had more of that kind of stuff uh you don't do any of it
No, I, I, yeah, I think I would feel weird about it for some reason, and that's me.
Like, maybe I should, but it's like my person, like, I don't know, I would feel like, you know, but I, but I'm very grateful.
Do you carve the turkey?
No.
No, I don't do any.
No, I don't do it.
I don't like turkey.
No, but they, they do it.
Yeah.
But I don't, you know, it's, yeah, there's not really a good, I don't, I don't think it's a, you know, I'm trying to think we, you know, I mean, like Christmas, we had the, you were, you would get, you know, Santa brings us three presents and then the rest are wrapped.
We don't have traditions either.
Yeah, I don't think it was just, it was Thanksgiving you'd have, we have everybody over now.
I think now maybe we do.
I guess everybody comes to our house and...
You host?
Yeah, we host and, you know, it's like, I don't know.
What kind of space did people even have to do this stuff?
I don't, like, no one had a house that was...
Like, if we at Thanksgiving at someone's house, they were all very small houses.
You said a joke about that.
Yeah, what was it?
Did you...
I don't know if you...
Oh, I said something about them.
My parents downsizes but still want to host the holidays.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So the tables were like snaking through.
the hallway. Yeah, yeah. But I mean, I don't think we, in our families growing up, we ever had
like a house that could host everybody. It would be, if you did it, it's like half of the people
are eating outside, half are in a garage, or somewhere, whatever, everybody's kind of broken
up. So it's not this proper, like, it's already, there is no, the tradition is just we're all
together. Yeah, yeah. But it's like there's not a big table that we're sitting at and we all
sit down and we're all talking.
It's like, it's all just kind of like chaotic.
Yeah.
But we're all in the same house.
Okay.
Yeah.
If there's like a big family.
Yeah, that's nice.
What tradition will you institute with Olive?
Oh, a lot.
It's going to be very regimented.
Zero fun.
You'll make her curve, carve the pump.
Yeah, I'll make her do all the work.
Do the dishes.
Will you do it so she'll know you're in charge?
I think she's doing it.
I think Lucy's doing it.
Yeah.
Yeah, to let the family know because you feel they, if it's, what if there's a little uprising?
You feel an uprising happened.
Oh, yeah.
How about in your family, anytime you feel there's an uprising, you know there's a little clapback when you serve dinner that night.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, I'm going to go, listen, if you want more, you come to me.
That's right.
I like it.
Yeah.
Keep talking like that.
You're in a small portion of whatever.
Yeah.
The problem is, you know, kids.
They don't want to eat what we're cooking.
So they're like, great.
Yeah.
What are you cooking?
Well, we just, you know, we cook.
My wife cooks great meals.
But, you know, kids, they're like, I want, I want Cheerios.
You know what I mean?
I want pizza.
You should serve lamb and then seeing Mary had a little lamb.
I should.
You know, a tradition that would be, I think sometimes it could be like you'd want McDonald's like that night or something.
like it's like you have Thanksgiving
that's a Nate tradition yeah that's a meat tradition
and night you're like I just want some McDonald's
or maybe it's Thanksgiving night or the next day
maybe the next day but it could
yeah maybe it's the next day
because you're like after you have like two full days
of just like all this kind of like
real food you're like
you know I want some McDonald's
I haven't checked in with you guys in a while on this
you guys are still into McDonald's pretty hard
yeah I've been
quite often I've eaten there a while but yeah
I still like what they're, still like what they're doing.
I'm still into it.
Wow.
Yeah.
I've been there this week.
Yeah.
It's Monday.
Yeah.
I've been there yet.
This weekend on the road.
Yeah, I've eaten, yeah.
What'd you get when you were there?
Number one, no onions.
I got the number seven.
What's the number one?
Big McMill.
What's the number seven?
Two cheeseburger meal.
Oh, okay.
Used to be number nine.
Okay.
I bumped it down of seven.
Yeah, it's a nine.
Yeah, I had that recently.
I watched a TikTok about a guy who he was just,
holding a hamburger. He said, I've had this for 11 months. This is a McDonald's burger. I've had for
11 months. He was just, it wasn't in a case. He's just holding it. Believe him, though. And what? And
like, it's still preserve. He still totally looks the same. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No mold.
That just means that, I mean, they're killing it. That's how good it is, dude. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. I think you eat, I think we eat it with the understanding and we know that it's not good. It's not good for you. I just like to check in with you guys. Yeah. Yeah. Are you not
eating anything bad? Well, I try not to. But,
But McDonald's in particular, you just feel, you know, maybe, you know.
They're the one that's not good?
Well, I don't eat Burger King or Wendy's or...
I had Burger King today.
Did you?
Yeah.
Or I think Chick-fil-A, I mean, I've said this before.
I even think it's gone downhill.
A lot of people disagree, but I think, I still think it tastes good.
Their pretzel bun thing is unreal.
Yeah, yeah, it's really...
Pretzel bun sandwich.
I said I like steak and shake burgers on here one time, and I got some...
Pretty bad criticism from a guy, but...
From a random guy?
Yeah.
But if you eat clean, so you eat pretty clean?
I try to, yeah.
I don't want to be insensitive.
How are you not shredded right now?
Well, I look all right.
Yeah, I look all right.
I do, I know, I do.
I mean, I'm sitting down in a chair.
Yeah, but I would think...
Take your shirt off.
But I'm saying if you would be shredded.
Well, you got to be, you know, there's a good bit of exercise that comes in with being shredded.
Yeah.
Do you weight lift or anything like that?
I lift a little weights.
Okay.
I do a little cardio.
Yeah.
On a treadmill?
Yeah.
You got to get out and start grounding.
Well, I do ground.
But, yeah, I mean, I just, you know, I quit eating bread.
I've not had bread in about over a month.
How does it feel?
Which I can see.
I feel like I can see that you're.
Yeah.
Yeah, it feels great.
I'm looking.
Yeah.
You can see what?
That he hasn't had bread?
Well, maybe I'm seeing him, but now, if I look at him more in his face, I can see it.
I did have a fried, you know, I have some, you know, I still, I'm still,
out and about.
You're still a human being.
Yeah.
And I had a chicken finger over in the green room.
I told Abigail that I'm not eating bread.
And then I ate a chicken finger.
She goes, does that not count as bread?
Because it was fried.
And I go, well, technically.
I'm not had a sandwich in a month.
Now we're splitting hair.
Yeah.
She really came at me.
I was like, what are we married?
So you're, we're just the bargettesies.
We just, we're, what you say,
we go but I thought
yeah
because we take it
as you judging us
yeah why
yeah I take it that way
yeah so I take it that way
then you go
well yeah
chicken finger
and then I do take it
like you're trying to say something
I think the Bible says something
like don't judge
lest you be judged by others
so when I'm judge
and I expect it in return
yeah
yeah
yeah
yeah
that is a good way
to think about it
yeah
so the Bible does
is like look
judge
because then
even God when you go, but they judge me and he goes, well, you can do that if they judge
you. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He's like, yeah, if you're going to be doing it to other people,
expect it back to back at you. Right. So your wife's Canadian, so Thanksgiving, where you go is probably
not an issue. No. It's different for me. I got divorced, you know, parents, and then I got other
family members that I hang out with that don't necessarily hang out with each other. So I try to
accommodate my whole life growing up it was two thanksgivings yeah i would have
thanksgiving uh thanksgiving with my dad a lot of times we'd do thanksgiving the day before or i'd do
thanksgiving with my dad and then go to my moms and we would have kind of a nighttime
thanksgiving yeah sounds awesome what are you doing yeah it wasn't you know the all alternate
parents we got now you got being married throws a wrench and everything because now you got
her families that's two things that's two
families to juggle and then I got my immediate family and then my two extended families.
So there's like six different possibilities or five different.
Oh, because grandparents are still in the equation?
Yeah, well, two different.
Just like mom's family, dad's family, you know, and then Lucy's mom's family and
Lucy's dad's family.
And then just my immediate family, that's like five different options.
Or you'd spend it by herself.
We're doing my immediate family.
this year.
Yeah.
But then you got to go like,
well,
the next year you do it there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But that's what you do.
You just rotate.
I want to eventually just be like...
Everyone come to me every year.
Yeah,
even if it's your family.
You bring your family over here,
we just have a massive amount of people.
This is sponsored by Nate Land.
Yes.
This Thanksgiving sponsored by Nateland.
That's what I would want to do.
It sounds awesome.
I would like it.
Just to take all the whatever.
Take all the whatever out.
Just Thanksgiving is at my place.
Everybody, everybody come over.
At the compound, dude.
Yeah.
Actually, it sounds like the dream.
I almost had that happen.
It was 2021, and, you know, things are still a little shaky, and we had just had a baby, and I had my dad agreed to come with his family, my mom, my brother-in-law, who doesn't really get along with a lot of my family, they had all agreed to come.
But we had this brand new little baby, and we were scared to get her sick.
So we go, hey, listen, guys, if anybody is sick, you know, maybe don't come.
And then, and then, no, but everybody was like, oh, I'm sick, I'm sick.
He was like, oh, they just used it as a way to get out.
Yeah, they go, oh, I'm sick.
You're like, no one wanted it.
Yeah.
But I almost happened.
You thought, like, they wanted it.
Yeah.
And where would they be driving from?
All from Alabama.
Yeah.
But it was like, it would be a big, you know, a big family group.
It'd be great.
This will be awesome.
Yeah.
But I did take my dad to my sister's Thanksgiving, which is it's not her dad.
And I thought that would be fun because my mom was there.
I thought, well, this will be cool.
But it was weird.
Yeah.
It was weird.
You should have something at the cabin.
I should.
The first, the sleigh Thanksgiving.
You could have a lot of people there.
Yeah.
Kill a turkey on side.
You have a sleigh where they just all get to meet each other, you know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, it's just a lot of that.
He's just looking around for it.
