Speaker 1: Mac with Black Friday just around the corner, just around No,
Speaker 1: we're not doing that again. That's a one time thing.
Speaker 1: Don't you dare taint our moment?
Speaker 2: Sih.
Speaker 1: One of the biggest Black Friday toys that happened while
Speaker 1: we were kids was the was the murdering for Power
Speaker 1: Ranger toys?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 1: And did you know that this past weekend Hasboro put
Speaker 1: up for auction all of their Power Ranger memorabilia. So
Speaker 1: I just caught your eye.
Speaker 2: Wait, so they had like a warehouse of stuff.
Speaker 1: Yes. The auction that concluded this weekend, Hasborough sold off
Speaker 1: a trove of Power Rangers costumes, props, and other memorabilia
Speaker 1: for the franchisees three decades of history.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 1: The top selling item was an eighty inch Cosmic Blaster
Speaker 1: used in the twenty twenty three Netflix release Power Rangers.
Speaker 1: Cosmic Fury sold for just under ninety k.
Speaker 2: How was the top seller? Not any sort of thing
Speaker 2: that amy Joe Johnson war.
Speaker 1: Another big ticket item was a Transformable Astromegaship Astro Megazord
Speaker 1: hero filming miniature that went for just under fifty k.
Speaker 1: The top selling costume was the Green Ranger worn by

Speaker 1: for just under thirty thousand dollars. The Pink Ranger costume
Speaker 1: went for twenty two thousand dollars, and steal the Yellow
Speaker 1: Ranger costume went for twenty three thousand dollars.
Speaker 2: Give me Amy Joe Johnson's panties for forty grand goo.
Speaker 1: You didn't even let me ask the question. I was
Speaker 1: gonna say if money was not an issue.
Speaker 2: Yeah, pink Pi Rangers suit outfit, yep, I'll.
Speaker 1: Give you an extra five dollars if I can smell
Speaker 1: it now.
Speaker 2: Uh the real answer, yes, was I real answer? One
Speaker 2: of my costumes for Eternity is a Green Ranger costume.
Speaker 2: So I would love the Green Ranger costume. I wouldn't
Speaker 2: fit in it, though, that'd be the issue.
Speaker 1: If we're going costumes, I wouldn't mind Golddar's costume, Rita
Speaker 1: Rapunzel's staff Repulsa Rida Rapulsa staff.
Speaker 2: What about zord On's tube.
Speaker 1: That's a good one. Oh, lord Z's staff too, with
Speaker 1: the big z on it good staff slash his inside
Speaker 1: out body and wouldn't mind getting his inside out.
Speaker 2: This costume would be sweet because you get that visor too.
Speaker 1: So I could just sit here with the stupid visor
Speaker 1: on talking to you right now. I think I would
Speaker 1: like the miniatures of the Zords that would then eventually
Speaker 1: come together to make the Megazord.
Speaker 2: I think I would like to wear Ammy Joe Johnson's panties.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know on my face. Okay, all right, but
Speaker 1: this is a family friendly television program, just like The
Speaker 1: Power Rangers.
Speaker 2: I'm just making a mockery of this. Gud I are
Speaker 2: I enjoy? I would you know what? It would be
Speaker 2: a cost effective thing. I know Friar would probably outbid
Speaker 2: me on those though, that's the issue. Whatever I bid dollar,
Speaker 2: Friar's one dollar more.
Speaker 1: You know what though. The dragon flute, oh.
Speaker 2: That would be sick. I bought a I almost bought
Speaker 2: a functional dragon phone.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking of way too many things right now. The
Speaker 1: White Ranger Tiger staff, because that could talk to you.
Speaker 2: Oh, that thing is sick. I'm trying to figure out
Speaker 2: how many times I could say panties in this episode.
Speaker 1: Well, lucky for you, we're about to start tearing.
Speaker 3: So one good three yeah, John three, King of Queen.
Speaker 1: Meryl Street entertaining, and we are the Mac and Goo Program.
Speaker 1: We are here to say we're sorry to make amends
Speaker 1: octeerber fell short. But here we are hat in hand
Speaker 1: saying please forgive us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got nothing to add to that. Goo. I'm
Speaker 2: I'm I'm happy to be talking about Thanksgiving things go.
Speaker 2: Once upon a time, you and I used to, uh,
Speaker 2: used to go out every single night prior to Thanksgiving,
Speaker 2: as many of us did at one point or another.
Speaker 2: I think, how old were you when you realized it
Speaker 2: was one year too many that you went out on
Speaker 2: the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving?
Speaker 1: Thanks it was two years ago. It was easily two
Speaker 1: years ago.
Speaker 2: I remember going out. I went out with you one night.
Speaker 2: We went to Miller's over there in Watatown's no longer
Speaker 2: there anymore, with your then uh, I don't even know.
Speaker 2: She was your frowncy, then your then girlfriend and a friend.
Speaker 2: And then I think I went out the next year
Speaker 2: to the same place and I was like oh, because
Speaker 2: then it was like all my sister's friends that were
Speaker 2: in there, and I was like, yeah, I'm too old.
Speaker 1: Well, we did a reunion and then went to a
Speaker 1: local establishment just two years ago, and that's when I said,
Speaker 1: you know what, oh right right, yeah, Thanksgiving Day I
Speaker 1: need to be a more functional.
Speaker 2: We did our fifteen year reunion.
Speaker 1: Which isn't a real thing, but go ahead.
Speaker 2: We were two of twelve people that showed up.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it was the fifteen year and less than
Speaker 1: fifteen showed up.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And a little peak behind the curtain here. The
Speaker 2: city that we grew up in still kind of tighten it,
Speaker 2: and we grew up with Facebook, so everyone still knows
Speaker 2: everyone's shit. You know. It's not a I think our
Speaker 2: generation will be the start of those like reunions going
Speaker 2: away because you just see everyone shit anyways.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then also the people that you don't see
Speaker 1: you don't want to see.
Speaker 2: Great point, Yeah, great point.
Speaker 1: So you mentioned Towny night Mac. This Thanksgiving, we are
Speaker 1: giving you a tiering of all of the events that
Speaker 1: happened during Thanksgiving weekends.
Speaker 2: And there's quite a bit. Is it sort of signals like,
Speaker 2: I know, winter starts technically before right, I don't even know.
Speaker 2: To me, like the start of winter is Thanksgiving week,
Speaker 2: you have Thanksgiving, the shopping begins like right around then.
Speaker 2: That to me is a quintessential winter. That sort of thing.
Speaker 1: So let's get to the tiering of Thanksgiving weekend events.
Speaker 1: Things that you do for the holiday a lot of
Speaker 1: from Wednesday night through Sunday, you do a lot on Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1: So I will bring this up right now. The tears
Speaker 1: at the bottom, the worst possible stuff from the weekend,
Speaker 1: le gimblets, the worst part of the turkey.
Speaker 2: We got five tiers here, five tiers. Folks at home,
Speaker 2: we got a visual here. Yeah, if you'd like, I'd
Speaker 2: like to hop on the YouTube and see it.
Speaker 1: Then the second to last is get it out of here,
Speaker 1: see you later, throw it in the bin. In the
Speaker 1: middle is it's fine. It's fine max opinion on most movies.
Speaker 2: No, fuck you.
Speaker 1: Then the second to best is holiday essentials.
Speaker 2: Stuff you need, stuff you need. You might not like it,
Speaker 2: but it's necessary.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And then finally, the best part of Thanksgiving, the
Speaker 1: best part of the weekend sides.
Speaker 2: Yep, I'll tell you right now, not the turkey.
Speaker 1: It's the sides.
Speaker 2: That's what makes Goo and I similar, that makes us great.
Speaker 2: We agree wholeheartedly. The best part about Thanksgiving dinner is
Speaker 2: the sides. I don't even need the turkey. I'll have some.
Speaker 2: I'll dabble, give me seven sides.
Speaker 1: Let's get started with towny night. That is when you
Speaker 1: will go out with your old friends from your old
Speaker 1: town right right the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, and I will
Speaker 1: say that it is get out of here, especially at
Speaker 1: our age.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought you were gonna go a tier below
Speaker 2: that I was gonna go this, and we're coming from
Speaker 2: different perspectives now it's now going on the other side
Speaker 2: of it goo, where me as a single man in
Speaker 2: my mid thirties, I almost got to get out there
Speaker 2: and go out Wednesday night, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: So I don't love it. It's fine, but I think
Speaker 2: it belongs better in this dear, get it out of here.
Speaker 1: I am trying to have my best foot forward for
Speaker 1: the weekend and not taint my entire weekend.
Speaker 2: No, that's true too, And for this year, I actually
Speaker 2: got to work on Thanksgiving Eve, so I don't have
Speaker 2: an option.
Speaker 1: Okay, so the next part of Thanksgiving would be, oh,
Speaker 1: the next morning going to a high school football game,
Speaker 1: taking in the old Pinskin locally, and I think this
Speaker 1: is fine.
Speaker 2: Oh, I'd go a tier below. Really I did it once,
Speaker 2: but it ties into the night before Goo, so maybe
Speaker 2: this is something that's going up. I was incredibly hungover.
Speaker 2: I hate it every fucking second of it, and it
Speaker 2: was like thirty eight degrees. You know, it's cold weather.
Speaker 2: I'm hungover. It's not something I'm looking forward to. I
Speaker 2: think as we get older, maybe we have children in
Speaker 2: the high school, maybe we know kids playing that aren't
Speaker 2: our peers. Maybe it goes up, but I'd say get
Speaker 2: it out of here. To me, it's very similar to
Speaker 2: what I'm sure is coming up at some point our
Speaker 2: turkey trot. Oh.
Speaker 1: By the way, we each get two vetos in a stamp.
Speaker 2: Okay, two vetos in a stampiness agree.
Speaker 1: I might move that up one because, as you just said,
Speaker 1: as you have children. I bring my son to this
Speaker 1: now he loves it. Okay, that's fair music. There's do
Speaker 1: you wear your helmet?
Speaker 2: Do you wear your letamon jacket?
Speaker 1: My letterman jacket that's a size two XL. I really
Speaker 1: thought I was gonna grow into that.
Speaker 2: No, you know, I think it was just the thing.
Speaker 2: Everyone did it. And even when you see high school
Speaker 2: kids now, their letamon jackets are way too big for them.
Speaker 2: I think it's just the style of the letterman jacket.
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the turkey trot, and I
Speaker 1: am putting this in the giblets.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not gonna argue with you on that. I'm
Speaker 2: never gonna do it, never gonna do it. I don't know,
Speaker 2: I don't I don't care. I think it's maybe the
Speaker 2: worst thing ever invented actually, so yeah, we'll keep it.
Speaker 1: And don't get me wrong, I would love to wake
Speaker 1: up on Thanksgiving morning and like work out or something
Speaker 1: like that. Shit, even I'll hop on the StairMaster the
Speaker 1: day before, you know, because I'm gonna eat a lot
Speaker 1: of food.
Speaker 2: I know, my face don't want to and run. And
Speaker 2: then it plays into the Wednesday night thing. Most people
Speaker 2: go and drink afterwards, so it's like, why don't you
Speaker 2: just drink before and not go?
Speaker 1: All right, I guess we'll now go to the one
Speaker 1: o'clock or so, the twelve already football game, the NFL game,
Speaker 1: and I would say that this is a holiday essential.
Speaker 1: And because the Lions are so good now, that's always
Speaker 1: the early game. That might be sides?
Speaker 2: Are they always the early game?
Speaker 1: They're always the early game. Cowboys are the four and
Speaker 1: then I know they try and sneak Green Bay in
Speaker 1: there as much as possible, but they usually play one
Speaker 1: of those two teams.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's an essential for sure. The early game
Speaker 2: usually sneaks up on you though you're like getting ready
Speaker 2: for the day. You might be might have just gotten
Speaker 2: to where you're supposed to go, But by the time
Speaker 2: you're paying attention to the early game, it's like.
Speaker 1: Second third quarter. You can get some late bets in right, right,
Speaker 1: You're not gonna get any parlays in there because you're
Speaker 1: always way too late for it, unless you're waking up
Speaker 1: and doing it. That's not a bad tradition either, waking
Speaker 1: up and setting a DK lineup for the day.
Speaker 2: I just set my DK lineup up two hours ago
Speaker 2: for Thursday.
Speaker 1: For Thursday, love it. Do some nice ladders on Dak Prescott,
Speaker 1: who's not playing this.
Speaker 2: Year, Big Cooper Rushkay, I'm not a Big Cooper Rush guy.
Speaker 1: I'm not.
Speaker 2: No, he's feeding ceed lamb though. It's not bad.
Speaker 1: All right, Let's go to Thanksgiving dinner, which is I
Speaker 1: don't I think we should change this because no one
Speaker 1: has Thanksgiving dinner. For dinner, it's lunch.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we eat roughly two pm. It's neither lunch nor dinner.
Speaker 2: But we're definitely not eating at like five six o'clock.
Speaker 2: The people that do that are fucking psychopaths. I want
Speaker 2: to eat. You want to eat early because it enables
Speaker 2: two things. Number One, you get to spend more time
Speaker 2: with people, more time in the day. Number Two, it
Speaker 2: allows for immediate leftovers at five or six o'clock. You
Speaker 2: go back in there, you make up a whole different
Speaker 2: plate or maybe the same plate, maybe like the same shit.
Speaker 2: Maybe you make a sandwich. It's essential to eat early
Speaker 2: so that you could have leftovers at like six, five, seven,
Speaker 2: whatever sides. Yeah, yeah, it's gotta be.
Speaker 1: And look, I'm not even saying that turkey is great
Speaker 1: or whatever meat you're serving with. I just love the sides.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And there's like a whole pomp and circumstances to
Speaker 2: the thing. Right, Usually wherever you go has a whole lineup,
Speaker 2: but you know, you go through, you go, everyone has
Speaker 2: the same seat they usually sit in. It's it's a
Speaker 2: whole thing. It's a ceremony.
Speaker 1: Oh I forgot to put one at the beginning. Let
Speaker 1: me jump in right now. That's a rewind the sound effect.
Speaker 1: So you don't work in an office, but they might
Speaker 1: have done this when you were at school, and that
Speaker 1: is either the week before or the Wednesday before Thanksgiving,
Speaker 1: they have a turkey dinner.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, like the last official day before you
Speaker 2: go on holiday. Yeah yeah, it's fine.
Speaker 1: It's not.
Speaker 2: No, you're not into it.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna stamp it in giblets. I hate this more
Speaker 1: than anything in the world.
Speaker 2: It's like a primer.
Speaker 1: Though I understand. I understand why they do it. Not
Speaker 1: everyone is lucky enough to go home and have a
Speaker 1: turkey dinner. I'm fortunate. We're both fortunate for that. But
Speaker 1: I want a turkey dinner twice, maybe three times a year. Yeah,
Speaker 1: not twice in a week.
Speaker 2: I I would. My argument would be that I would
Speaker 2: like to eat stuffing always, so if there's a good
Speaker 2: stuffing involved, it should go up a tier. At the
Speaker 2: very least.
Speaker 1: It's one of my biggest pet peeves in life.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I get it, I get that. But if so,
Speaker 2: if it's primarily based on the turkey and the gravy,
Speaker 2: I think you're probably right with this tier. But if
Speaker 2: there's some good sides, and there's probably not, it should
Speaker 2: go up a tier.
Speaker 1: I've already stamped it, all right.
Speaker 2: Oh you stamped it. I stamped it all right. Fuck shit,
Speaker 2: it's been stamped.
Speaker 1: Let's go to the four to thirty football game. And
Speaker 1: this I would say is it's fine. It's usually a
Speaker 1: decent game, but it kind of goes with the next
Speaker 1: part of your very sleepy at this point because of
Speaker 1: the tripta fan of the turkey and you are going
Speaker 1: for your after dinner nap. That would be a holiday essential.
Speaker 2: Agreed. I'm gonna stamp the four thirty game in sides.
Speaker 2: That is the classics, the game everyone's paying attention to.
Speaker 2: To your point, it's usually the cowboy game team of America.
Speaker 2: And moreover, there's nothing better than like betting the game,
Speaker 2: slowly washing the game.
Speaker 1: Falling asleep, waking up in fourth quarter.
Speaker 2: Yeah, end of the third, beginning of the fourth, and
Speaker 2: getting reinvested into the game. It's an absolute staple of
Speaker 2: the day.
Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm more of the twelve thirty game.
Speaker 1: I'm definitely more into that because you're getting hyped for
Speaker 1: the food, you're eating apps, just pounding shrimp. By the
Speaker 1: time of the four thirty you've already seen one game,
Speaker 1: you're tired from the food, you're eating desserts.
Speaker 2: Probably arguing with the weird uncle.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, that's most of the day. What else
Speaker 1: happens on Thanksgiving, that is on this what the school lunch? Thanksgiving?
Speaker 1: He had two of them on there, Billy d they're
Speaker 1: both going in giblets.
Speaker 2: School lunch and what was the other one? Like a
Speaker 2: work the work one. Yeah, school lunch wasn't bad though,
Speaker 2: because you were a kid. He didn't really fucking it.
Speaker 1: Once again, I don't.
Speaker 2: You didn't have strong opinion.
Speaker 1: Listen to me, child, No, listen to me right now
Speaker 1: as a parent, Right now, I don't want my son
Speaker 1: eating too with turkey dinners in a day, in two days.
Speaker 2: You don't want them having a little cranberry sauce. That's
Speaker 2: usually what it was. It was like shitty turkey and
Speaker 2: cranberry sauce. All right, Yeah, you're right. I'm not gonna
Speaker 2: argue that you're right.
Speaker 1: Don't you dare taint my son do the eight thirty game.
Speaker 1: Let's go to the eight thirty game, the eight twenty game.
Speaker 1: This is get out of here. I'm so tired.
Speaker 2: I was gonna say it's fine. I was gonna say
Speaker 2: it's fine.
Speaker 1: Even the games, like when the papers make it through
Speaker 1: the game, like the butt Fumble game was an eight
Speaker 1: twenty game on Thanksgiving? Yeah, and you had to will
Speaker 1: yourself to stay awake for that.
Speaker 2: No, typically it's when you're you might catch the first half.
Speaker 2: That's when you're driving home. It's fine, it's there, it exists.
Speaker 2: You're not really paying attention to it. But it's another
Speaker 2: reason you're.
Speaker 1: A little footballed out by that point too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, I agree.
Speaker 1: I guess we'll do Thanksgiving leftovers next.
Speaker 2: It's a okay, go, it's sides, all right. I was
Speaker 2: gonna say holiday essential, No, it sides. I'm not a
Speaker 2: huge leftovers guy. After the fact, same day, love it
Speaker 2: that night, but then we get a day or two
Speaker 2: days later. I'm like, to your point, though, I'm sick
Speaker 2: of turkey, and I'm sick of these same things. It's
Speaker 2: kind of what the point you were arguing.
Speaker 1: I take everything that's left over, take all that slop,
Speaker 1: and just put it into a sandwich.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like that same day, but I would we'll wave.
Speaker 1: The classic Ross Geller moistmaker. I will take that. I
Speaker 1: also forgot, so you don't have to deal with it
Speaker 1: as much. But you are a child of divorce because
Speaker 1: your parents don't.
Speaker 2: Love you never were even married.
Speaker 1: Actually, oh, so I guess your parents do love you.
Speaker 2: Yea out of wedlock.
Speaker 1: Lucky for you then, but they didn't abort me.
Speaker 2: What a win.
Speaker 1: For Thanksgiving, you need to plan out your day because
Speaker 1: you have several families that you have to go to.
Speaker 1: You have in laws, but you don't have the in
Speaker 1: laws that you're also trying to plan things up.
Speaker 2: But isn't the staple, right, So you do one Thanksgiving
Speaker 2: one Christmas Eve.
Speaker 1: Now we're just doing split day both days. Yeah, creates
Speaker 1: a very long day.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a lot.
Speaker 1: So I would say this is get out of here.
Speaker 2: I'm okay with that. I'm okay with that. But I
Speaker 2: will say so the tradition that my local family has,
Speaker 2: and it is quite we're from all over the place,
Speaker 2: Like I have cousins that aren't really my cousins, but
Speaker 2: we call my cousins and uncles and that whole thing
Speaker 2: because you're rednecks. Right, Yeah, there you go. I am
Speaker 2: wearing my Hampton Beach shirt. It's one of those things.
Speaker 2: So we all go because it's such a large family,
Speaker 2: large Irish Catholic family. There's like four or five six
Speaker 2: sights and then we all meet up at this one
Speaker 2: person's house and we do like a nightcap. We do
Speaker 2: some drinks, whatever food's left over, and I really enjoy that.
Speaker 2: All the adults show up and all the kids go away.
Speaker 1: It's like the Vince von Reese Witherspoon holiday classic four Christmases.
Speaker 2: Yeah, except you know a different holiday.
Speaker 1: Let's go to Black Friday, and it's not what it
Speaker 1: used to be Black Friday. It used to be doors
Speaker 1: at midnight or you get them at five am. You
Speaker 1: go to the stores, and there were amazing deals for
Speaker 1: a very short window of time. Black Friday started this
Speaker 1: year on Sunday. I would say, kind of bullshit.
Speaker 2: And I'm sure you would echo this. We are very
Speaker 2: lucky that we did not grow up as parents when
Speaker 2: Black Friday was a thing, because parents would be running
Speaker 2: out at midnight on Thanksgiving to go get shit for
Speaker 2: the stupid ass kids.
Speaker 1: I will say, this is that so even now with
Speaker 1: the bad savings, the savings are just there for the week.
Speaker 1: I still wake up in door bust on Black Friday.
Speaker 2: Just because you like doing it, though not for a
Speaker 2: good reason.
Speaker 1: I do like doing it.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 1: My favorite thing is I set a budget for Christmas.
Speaker 1: I set a budget for what I'm gonna spend on people,
Speaker 1: It's kind of like being a GM in baseball and
Speaker 1: you are like, there's a bit of flexibility to what
Speaker 1: the budget is. You go over, you're gonna get taxed.
Speaker 1: But finding and being like I just save twenty five
Speaker 1: on this, I can now get this too, and just
Speaker 1: building up the best roster of gifts. I'm all about it.
Speaker 2: You know what My tradition is, what's that Black Friday
Speaker 2: and or the next one coming up is I'll buy
Speaker 2: something for myself. Yes, And then when I go and
Speaker 2: buy gifts, it's like three days before Christmas.
Speaker 1: I used to. And we grew up in a time
Speaker 1: when you know, DVD's were cool but no, but DVDs
Speaker 1: were cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Black Friday DVD sales were the best.
Speaker 2: You got me the unrated version of Corky Romano.
Speaker 1: Why those three dollars a target? What do you want?
Speaker 1: I used all my goodie bucks on it.
Speaker 2: I mean Best Buy did have the best little bin
Speaker 2: of five dollars DVD's. You could swim through that thing
Speaker 2: and find something.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And you would get home and your parents would say, oh,
Speaker 1: what'd you buy? And you're like, oh, I bought the
Speaker 1: movie Arthur, the one with Russell Brand why'd you buy that?
Speaker 1: It was four dollars?
Speaker 2: Have you seen it?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: But people say it's fine.
Speaker 1: People say it's not as good as the original. So
Speaker 1: Black Friday is get out of here. I think it's
Speaker 1: close to Giblets because they've ruined it.
Speaker 2: So here's the question. Bring it up. Now. Are you
Speaker 2: saying Cyber Monday greater than Black Friday? Oh?
Speaker 1: Easily. Cyber Monday you get sweet deals.
Speaker 2: I like Black Friday more than I like Cyber Monday.
Speaker 2: I'm over it by Cyber Monday.
Speaker 1: Cyber Monday you actually do get amazing deals.
Speaker 2: Like Cyber Monday is my whole year. I'm looking at
Speaker 2: shit all the time online.
Speaker 1: You know so, aren't I? But you get the deal.
Speaker 1: The deals are there, the deal of the day.
Speaker 2: I don't think it's a tier above Black Friday to me.
Speaker 1: I'll put it with it.
Speaker 2: But okay, all right, all right.
Speaker 1: Look, they could both be better, agreed, but they're not.
Speaker 2: I mean, it is sort of stunning that there isn't
Speaker 2: a place, a store that is running a real doorbuster, like, hey,
Speaker 2: get in here and you get this, but you're also
Speaker 2: gonna buy this first.
Speaker 1: Walmart might be. I think Target got busted last year
Speaker 1: for doing fake door busters.
Speaker 2: You know what's fucked. Yes, the closest Walmart to us
Speaker 2: is like fucking framing it framing ever. Yeah, it's not great.
Speaker 1: It's not great, But.
Speaker 2: In Boston city limits, Walmart's not very good. I mean
Speaker 2: it is Walmart.
Speaker 1: It's a good point. You also have small Business Saturday.
Speaker 2: I didn't even know this existed until two days ago
Speaker 2: and he told me about this bullshit.
Speaker 1: But this goes with the other one that has left,
Speaker 1: and that is putting up Christmas decorations and all related
Speaker 1: May I explain me finish? So tradition, every single year
Speaker 1: I have done this. How old am I thirty five? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've done this for thirty five years, thirty six years
Speaker 1: of We always decorate my mother's house the Saturday after Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1: We've always done it, always put the tree up, do
Speaker 1: everything there. So what usually happens is we have broken lights,
Speaker 1: maybe the tree is busted, we need more stuff, and
Speaker 1: we always end up going to Target five times on
Speaker 1: that Saturday, which is the opposite of small Business Saturday.
Speaker 2: So my perspective on this, GUP. I always like the
Speaker 2: idea of supporting small businesses, and I actually really do
Speaker 2: when I can local bakery, local coffee shop, whatever.
Speaker 1: You didn't even know about their holiday.
Speaker 2: I know that's what I'm saying off of your soap. No,
Speaker 2: this is a holiday made for people that don't typically
Speaker 2: support small businesses. It's for the frauds. Oh you are
Speaker 2: are the frauds. For the frauds.
Speaker 1: Why did you get me a Valentine's gift? I celebrate
Speaker 1: you look at Valentine's every day.
Speaker 2: This is giblets, Kimmy Gibbler, it's giblets. Yeah, this is
Speaker 2: out out on this like this, This is a thing
Speaker 2: that should be done year round, no doubt in my mind.
Speaker 2: It's dumb and not for nothing to smush it between
Speaker 2: Black Friday and Monday. You know what, this might be
Speaker 2: the time of year I least care about small businesses.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to get the fucking shopping done.
Speaker 1: And I would say that decorating for Christmas is holiday essentials.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not for me. I'm just not a decorator
Speaker 2: in general. To me to pain in the ass, I
Speaker 2: don't like putting something up that I gotta take down
Speaker 2: again in one month, So I'm out on that in general.
Speaker 1: Well then why don't you just do what I do
Speaker 1: and put it up two months early.
Speaker 2: I just don't put it up at all.
Speaker 1: Also, I I'm not a monster. I put my outdoor
Speaker 1: stuff out the weekend of Thanksgiving.
Speaker 2: The last time I had a real tree in my
Speaker 2: apartment was maybe seven years ago, and I will never
Speaker 2: ever have a real tree in one of my domains
Speaker 2: ever again.
Speaker 1: Ever, do you like our tears?
Speaker 2: I mean we should have had more. It's fines.
Speaker 1: Well, you can start moving some stuff. You have some vetos.
Speaker 1: What do you want to move?
Speaker 2: All right? Move Black Friday up to It's fine.
Speaker 1: Okay Black Friday. Although Black Friday used to be a
Speaker 1: holiday essential.
Speaker 2: I agree. That's why Boston was the best. That's why
Speaker 2: I think it fits better right in the middle there.
Speaker 1: Okay, what else are you seeing?
Speaker 2: Now? Can you use one of yours?
Speaker 1: No, I'm I'm really really. I mean maybe the checklist
Speaker 1: might go down one to try and figure out your
Speaker 1: schedule for the holidays. That sucks, But get out of
Speaker 1: here is pretty good because you gotta figure it out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we should almost. We almost should have just made
Speaker 2: the bottom tier called turkey trot, right, That would have
Speaker 2: made more sense.
Speaker 1: Turkey trot and too many turkey dinners.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna use my turkey, my last one and move
Speaker 2: Turkey Trot down below the bottom tier.
Speaker 1: So you want it off the board.
Speaker 2: I think there's a thing to be said about turkey
Speaker 2: trot folks, right like, if your turkey trot family turn
Speaker 2: this podcast off, I don't want your your ears leave,
Speaker 2: leave the planet, don't bring your don't bring your fucking
Speaker 2: five k agenda into my fucking not my America, turkey
Speaker 2: trot people.
Speaker 1: So guys head over to tiermaker dot com. I will
Speaker 1: put this tier in our bio once again. Thank you
Speaker 1: to the other Billy d for making it. And let
Speaker 1: us know about your Thanksgiving tradition weekends or your Thanksgiving weekends.
Speaker 1: How do you tear? What is going on? Let's get
Speaker 1: into mac sach Matthew. You see this? Do you hear
Speaker 1: about this? By the way, your sack could be anything,
Speaker 1: It could be a boat. But posted by at j
Speaker 1: wep on x he said you have one hour to
Speaker 1: eat this for one hundred thousand dollars. Who are you
Speaker 1: calling for help? And what he posted was a photo
Speaker 1: of four large SODA's twenty McNuggets, two large French fries,
Speaker 1: and four double quarter pounders with cheese from McDonald's. I
Speaker 1: ask you, who would you call for help?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I did see this, and my instant reaction was,
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure I could do this by myself. I'm
Speaker 2: almost positive.
Speaker 1: So my second question was how long do you need?
Speaker 2: Out and getting the twenty nugs down, two fries, sodas,
Speaker 2: and two qpcs double qpcs. This four, probably gonna get
Speaker 2: the third one down, might have trouble with it. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna need help on the final double QPC, I think,
Speaker 2: so are you a double QPC guy? Are you into
Speaker 2: that type of shit?
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. I'll eat anything with a fucking.
Speaker 2: Garbage, so I'll call you in. I think I could
Speaker 2: do it myself in an hour roughly, but I would
Speaker 2: struggle with that last sandwich. That's that would be the
Speaker 2: thing I would definitely need help on, and maybe half
Speaker 2: of the third sandwich.
Speaker 1: As someone who eats food way too quickly and I'm
Speaker 1: a bottomless pit, I could do this in under thirty minutes.
Speaker 2: Well so to that point, I've done a couple eating contests.
Speaker 2: Your window really is the first thirty minutes, because after
Speaker 2: that everything sets in, especially including the liquid, and then
Speaker 2: you're just so full you can't you can't eat. So Really,
Speaker 2: when people when things giving an hour to do shit,
Speaker 2: you kind of got to do it in thirty minutes.
Speaker 1: As as a small boy growing up in a household
Speaker 1: with a very large bru that I had a very
Speaker 1: small window to get my food in before it was gone,
Speaker 1: and that lives with me.
Speaker 2: Nothing was better than claiming the extra bag fries, the
Speaker 2: fries that had fallen out of the thing.
Speaker 1: You know, I did, Like someone made a joke on
Speaker 1: here that the person I would call is my father
Speaker 1: to let him know that I won one hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 2: Coolest and who wants to be a millionaire moment of
Speaker 2: all time? It was fucking phenomenal. I think about it too.
Speaker 2: How many times in your heyday would you get McDonald's
Speaker 2: or whatever fast food and on the way home you
Speaker 2: eat all your fries and nuggets before you can get
Speaker 2: to the good stuff. Well you have to that's a
Speaker 2: regular day.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's time.
Speaker 2: Well it's like double that you're getting that. I honestly
Speaker 2: think a lot of people could get this done by themselves.
Speaker 1: Do you know what I ate for dinner the other night, Jeff,
Speaker 1: I had six eggs and a pound of bacon.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you right now, a pound of bacon is
Speaker 2: not as much bacon.
Speaker 1: As not as much as you think.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you could eat a pound of bacon. And six
Speaker 2: eggs is eggs these days in this economy, they're little.
Speaker 2: Little eggs are little these days. Six eggs and twenty
Speaker 2: twenty four, it was like three eggs in two thousand
Speaker 2: and two.
Speaker 1: Did you see what I ate last night? I posted
Speaker 1: it on Instagram. It was that giant sandwich. So it
Speaker 1: was a giant meatball and sausage sandwich, roughly the size
Speaker 1: of a French baguette, So the full French bagette, Italian
Speaker 1: sausage sauce on it. So I ate that entire thing.
Speaker 1: And then after that I ate two blueberry muffins from
Speaker 1: Jordan's Furniture. I can't be stopped.
Speaker 2: You went furniture shopping after eating that sandwich?
Speaker 1: No, no, no, What I did is we went to the enchanted
Speaker 1: village at Jordan's Furniture, and on the way out, you
Speaker 1: have to buy muffins or they're gonna arrest you.
Speaker 2: I do love a blueberr muffin. Don't get me wrong.
Speaker 2: This is not against this is not anti blueberry muffins.
Speaker 2: I don't know if I like combining the sausages in
Speaker 2: the meatball, so it's two different textures.
Speaker 1: No, no, so I did half sandwich of sausage half
Speaker 1: sandwich of meatballs. My mother only had so many meatballs
Speaker 1: for me to steal, so I took those, took the sausage,
Speaker 1: went home, made my own sauce.
Speaker 2: Don't tell her, Oh you, your mama doesn't make a
Speaker 2: nice of sauce.
Speaker 1: I make a beta sauce.
Speaker 2: Really, that is a bold claim. You're saying right now
Speaker 2: that Goo makes a better sauce than Mamma Goo.
Speaker 1: I make a better sauce than Mama goo.
Speaker 2: Wow. Would your wife agree?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 2: Really? Would RAFFI agree?
Speaker 1: Rafi doesn't know the difference.
Speaker 2: Ah See, do you're ever.
Speaker 1: Being a kid now? You're a bad example of this.
Speaker 2: I've never had your sauce, by the way, I've had
Speaker 2: your mom.
Speaker 1: So, and I was gonna say when I was a kid,
Speaker 1: like I loved my grandmother sauce. I love my mother sauce.
Speaker 1: But I used to get excited at school when they
Speaker 1: would serve chef boy ar d food because we weren't
Speaker 1: allowed to eat it. At home.
Speaker 2: No, I get that. I understand that for sure. It's
Speaker 2: it's like when you were a kid trading shit at
Speaker 2: lunch that you didn't your parents wouldn't let you have,
Speaker 2: so you trade like two things for one thing because
Speaker 2: you could not get that at home. Wow, I'd like
Speaker 2: to try your sauce sometime soon. It's very good, uh,
Speaker 2: for those of you at home that have missed Goo's
Speaker 2: origin story. His nickname is derived from a type of sauce.

Speaker 1: As someone who has now sat and through sitting through
Speaker 1: what's the past, time sodden. As someone who is now

Speaker 1: that I have no faith in a Disney sequel at
Speaker 1: this point.
Speaker 2: Did you like the original Frozen?
Speaker 1: It's grown on me and I think the music is
Speaker 1: I think the music is pretty top tier. When you're
Speaker 1: looking at a Disney it is good music.
Speaker 2: I thought it was overrated.
Speaker 1: But I will say this is that if you're looking
Speaker 1: at the music of the two Frozen movies, five songs
Speaker 1: from the original stand out over anything from the second one.
Speaker 2: I still haven't seen the second one. In the second one,
Speaker 2: I was just thinking about Milana again. I can't speak
Speaker 2: enough positive things about Moana. Juana has nothing but bangers,
