So we had our cousin's Christmas 24 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 3: party last night. 25 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,559 Speaker 1: It was our fourth annual cousins Christmas party, and it's 26 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: like I want to say, it's from the ages of 27 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: like twenty three to like forty five. It's kind of 28 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: where we are with our cousins. And we've talked about 29 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: her a little bit on the show, like our fun 30 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: Christmas traditions. But Mammy, I feel like you have to 31 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: get into like our family Christmas because you're one of ten. 32 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, so we're I'm one of ten kids. We loved Christmas. 33 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 2: We were it was so joyful. We had a big 34 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 2: ham every Christmas set my father would make and my 35 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 2: grandmother would come, the only time we would see her 36 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 2: all year, even though she only lived. 37 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 3: Like two miles away. 38 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 2: So I guess that tells you something about having ten kids. 39 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 2: But she would say, oh, Jimmy kin, sure charm a ham. 40 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 2: So we call it the charmed Ham. And the youngest brother, 41 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 2: number ten, Kevin, has taken on that tradition and he 42 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 2: makes the charm hand ham every year. But we had 43 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 2: a wonderful time. Everybody went to maths. We would be 44 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 2: allowed to get into our stockings first thing before my 45 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 2: parents should wake up, and then we would get our 46 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 2: gifts under the tree, which always consisted of socks and 47 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 2: pajamas and maybe a toy. It was about it, but man, 48 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 2: it was the greatest time ever. So as we grew older, 49 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 2: we all wound up starting to get together and have 50 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 2: everyone come for Christmas. Kevin the youngest again did it 51 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 2: for like twenty years every year, and then at some 52 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: point he had a motorcycle accident. He had some health issues. 53 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 2: Thank god he's one hundred percent. 54 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: I was crazy, like he almost died. You remember he 55 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: lost a couple couple inches. 56 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 2: Yes, he did. It was it was bad, It was 57 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 2: it was really bad. And then I took over the 58 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:13,239 Speaker 2: Hornswaggler and Terry because we're the three little kids. There's 59 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 2: I'm number seven. I'm sorry, I'm number eight, nine and ten, 60 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 2: and then Terry and Donna and his wife and sorry 61 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,799 Speaker 2: aunt Sue. She also of course was a part of 62 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 2: Kevin the festivities and would have the entire family over 63 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 2: and all of the nieces and nephews. And then there 64 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 2: were other people that joined in and other some of 65 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 2: your cousins Sean and Brian, and they wound up doing 66 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 2: in the rotation, and even Ryan, Kevin's youngest, wound up 67 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 2: doing a rotation. COVID killed our Hornswaggler Christmas. 68 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: I feel like we need to like pause for a 69 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: second and explain a little bit what the hornswaggle is 70 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: like Hornswaggler Christmas, because people that are listening have no 71 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: clue what the hell. 72 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 3: We're talking about. 73 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 2: Okay, perfect, So everyone gets together at someone's house. We 74 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 2: hosted the last Christmas get together, and the hornswaggler is 75 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 2: our gift exchange. 76 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 3: It's like our version of the white Elephant. 77 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that is a good way to do it. 78 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 2: The last in twenty nineteen, we had one hundred and 79 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 2: seventeen people here in our house. So it turned into. 80 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 3: This ginormous festival. 81 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:29,359 Speaker 2: And the gifts for Hornswaggle, well, we would always introduce 82 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 2: all the new hornswagglers and teach them our hornswaggle song, 83 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 2: which is have yourself phoneorn swaggler Christmas. 84 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 3: May your gifts be shit. 85 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 2: The end is our hornswaggle cry, and you put your 86 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 2: thumbs in your ears and make reindeers. So anyway, it 87 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,799 Speaker 2: was great and so you could get a good gift 88 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 2: or you could get a bad gift. A lot of joke. 89 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 2: Every year we would have a litany of things added 90 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:08,119 Speaker 2: like no Christmas shit, no as seen on TV shit, 91 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 2: no booze shit, though that's still you are. 92 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 3: Still get the good booze. I remember one year I 93 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 3: lucked out. 94 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: I think I was like nineteen, and I got the 95 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 1: big ass gray goose bottle. 96 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 3: I was not allowed to drink and everyone kept trying 97 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 3: to steal it from me. 98 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: I was like, hold on, time out, I still got 99 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 1: two years to sit on this bottle. 100 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 3: I'm taking this bitch to Vegas. 101 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. So after everybody has a wonderful Christmas dinner, then 102 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 2: the people that are participating in hornswagglers, and I think 103 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 2: the last time there were like fifty of them, so 104 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 2: wounded up. 105 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 3: I know it wound up. 106 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 2: Being about four or five hours long. It didn't break 107 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 2: up until after midnight. And we all start about four 108 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 2: in the afternoon, and everybody brings a gift and they're 109 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: all anonymous, and you pick numbers as far as when 110 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 2: you go you have two we have rules that are 111 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 2: that you can keep the gift. You go to the table, 112 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 2: you pick your gift on the first gift, then you 113 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 2: have two people that can take your gift, and then 114 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 2: you have to go back to the table to hit 115 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 2: the two steals or swaggles as we call them. And 116 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 2: so I'm sure that doesn't make any sense. Maybe Peyton 117 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,239 Speaker 2: might have some footage from last night because when COVID. 118 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 2: When COVID hit, we stopped our Christmas get together. So 119 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 2: Peyton resurrected it. And after one year I think of 120 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 2: it being dark and that was twenty twenty, Peyton decided 121 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 2: to do it with the cousins and she got everybody 122 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 2: interested in it. She's carried on this tradition which is 123 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 2: really really beautiful. 124 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really fun, and don't get me wrong, I 125 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 1: feel like Christmas it was more so for like us 126 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: younger cousins at that point, Like you guys are old and. 127 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 3: Tired and wanted to know part of it. You guys 128 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 3: see each. 129 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: Other multiple times a month, anyways, that was kind of 130 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: our time. Once a year we'd get together because like 131 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: I was in college, I was gone for so long 132 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 1: that those are the only time I got to see 133 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: my family and my cousins. So yesterday was our fourth 134 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: annual cousins Christmas, and we've done like a couple of 135 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 1: different things. Like the first year, we kind of just 136 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: hung out at the house, but we didn't do a 137 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: horn swaggle. And then the next year we were like, 138 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: how about we rent a party bus, we get drunk 139 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: and we go around and look at Christmas lights and. 140 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 3: That was so much fun. 141 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: Then last year we decided to switch it up again 142 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: and go bar hopping, and that was the worst decision 143 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: we could have ever possibly made. It was freezing, the 144 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: bars were packed, it was absolutely terrible. We were like, 145 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: screw this, We're going home, and then we ended up 146 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: going to the gay bar Charlie's. We dipped in our 147 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: Christmas pajamas. But last night my cousin Geo he hosted. 148 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: There was sixteen of us. We had two new horn 149 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: schwagglers that got to play, Jalen's boyfriend Alex and then 150 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: Megan's brother's new girlfriend Zanna, And there was a couple 151 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: of like gag gifts, but there was also a couple 152 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: of really really good gifts. Sally am taking pride in 153 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: my gift because for one, well, Kadeem did thirty dollars 154 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: in lottery tickets, but we dressed it up in like 155 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: a little weed bag, so people thought they were getting weed, 156 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: but it was just lottery tickets. 157 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 3: So that was good. 158 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: And then I ended up doing like a gas gift card. 159 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: And the reason that I felt it was so good 160 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: is because I know everyone in our family drives an 161 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: electric vehicle. 162 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 3: So if you end up with the gas card and 163 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 3: you have an electric car that sucks, yeah, that's true. 164 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 2: And on one little point to throw in. So there 165 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 2: are nice gifts, there are you know, gifts that you 166 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 2: might not you know, really want but they're not.

And I remember I was drunk off 181 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: my ass and I cussed Megan out.

Yeah, 190 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 2: and if they liked the gift, then the next person 191 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 2: can either take a gift from somebody else, and then 192 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 2: that person can take another gift for somebody else, and 193 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 2: then the third one has to go to the table 194 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 2: and pick a new gift. 195 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 3: And you never know, and if you really never want 196 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 3: to travel, right, if you pick. 197 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 2: Up something bad, then you are screwed.

But that was a really big deal for 411 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 2: all of us kids. So we really enjoyed that and 412 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:19,160 Speaker 2: that started our Christmas. So then your mom when when 413 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 2: one Christmas, I was really broke, and it was she 414 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 2: was five years old. I was working a couple of jobs, 415 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,679 Speaker 2: and I'd had the shift always. I always took the 416 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 2: shift on Christmas Eve as a bartender in this little 417 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 2: bar in the town where we grew up, Arcadia. And 418 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 2: I finished work and I'm like, oh my god, I 419 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:51,160 Speaker 2: forgot I forgot the stocking and everything was closed. So 420 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,959 Speaker 2: I went home and I'm like, what am I going 421 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,679 Speaker 2: to do? I had some fruit, so I threw an 422 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 2: apple in there. I threw like, you know, five or 423 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 2: six bucks of chip money in there. And there was 424 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 2: some fudge that someone had brought us one of our neighbors, 425 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 2: and was sitting on a paper plate and my refrigerator 426 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 2: for like five days. It was hard as a rock. 427 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 2: And I took that and I threw it in a 428 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 2: plastic bag and I put that in there, and I 429 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 2: forgot to mention. Earlier in the night. My sister Morrow 430 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,640 Speaker 2: would always bring Miranda over to the bar to say 431 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 2: good night to me on Christmas Eve. She always watched through. 432 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 2: That was our tradition. Well, Shanta was there and his wife, 433 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 2: some people dressed up, some customers dressed up like Santa 434 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 2: and Missus cloths, and when Miranda came in, she said, Mommy, 435 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 2: I want to buy Santa drink and everybody fell out. 436 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 2: They laughed so freaking hard. It was so cute. She 437 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 2: was four, she wasn't five. And so anyway back to 438 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 2: the story that I screwed up. So Christmas morning, I'm sleeping, 439 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 2: she wakes up to go get in her stockings, and 440 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,479 Speaker 2: she comes in the room crying. And she wakes up 441 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,439 Speaker 2: and she said, I never should about Son and that drink, 442 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 2: but he brought me in my stocking. It's fuck from 443 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 2: a refrigerator, and it was so funny. I never should 444 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 2: about Son and that drink. 445 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 3: Oh my god, it was so cute. 446 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 2: But the next year, they. 447 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 3: Like Fannah got too drunk. He forgot to give me 448 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 3: a good stocking. 449 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 2: So the next year, when she turned five, I had 450 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 2: to make up for it, and I got her. I 451 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 2: went after work. There was a little store like Woolworth's 452 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 2: was the name of it. And well they might still 453 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,679 Speaker 2: have wool or someplace, but anyway, you could buy like 454 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 2: fifteen they had twenty five things that were less than 455 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,479 Speaker 2: a buck. And so I went and got her like 456 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 2: twenty five things less than a buck. 457 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 3: And she woke up on. 458 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 2: Christmas with this huge stocking, all these huge presents. She 459 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 2: probably had fifty shitty little presents like Jack's and you 460 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 2: know rubber balls and those little paddles where you have 461 00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 2: the ball on the end and crept like that in 462 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 2: a slinky or whatever. And she had the best Christmas 463 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 2: and since then, she just takes those stockings to a 464 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:07,199 Speaker 2: level that is unbelievable. 465 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I was telling Kyle about it the other 466 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 1: day that I think that our stockings alone are personally 467 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 1: my favorite gifts that we get every single year. And 468 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,679 Speaker 1: I feel like the kids, I mean, we definitely didn't 469 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 1: appreciate it as much as now when we get older. 470 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:22,479 Speaker 1: But like I was telling Kyle, like those are our 471 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: good gifts, Like that's where we get like our nice 472 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: perfume and good makeup and jewelry and you know, candy 473 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,959 Speaker 1: or whatever. We get cleaning supplies that we need or whatever. 474 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 1: But Mom was telling me, I'm not sure she's gonna 475 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: do it this year. Maybe next year we'll start, but 476 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:38,919 Speaker 1: she kind of like let me down a little bit, 477 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna lie because she was like, well, now 478 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 1: all of you guys are in your relationship, like Dominique 479 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: and Blake are together, me and Kadem and then you 480 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,199 Speaker 1: have Jalen and Alex and she said, I'm done with stockings. 481 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: You guys can do your own stockings and you'll do 482 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: your partners, and your partner will do yours. And I'm 483 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 1: sitting here and I think about all the years where 484 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 1: Mom's gotten fucked over on the stockings because Dad doesn't 485 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: get in, doesn't. 486 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:01,120 Speaker 3: Fill him up. 487 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: He's getting a little bit, he's getting he's getting better, yeah, 488 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 1: over the years. But like all I'm thinking is like, 489 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 1: he's not gonna fill up my stocking. He's gonna half 490 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 1: ass in just like dad does. Blake is definitely gonna 491 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: half assed dominique stocking too. The only one that's gonna 492 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,400 Speaker 1: have a good stocking is Jalen and Alex. 493 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 2: Well. I I think that, you know, I think that 494 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 2: that's a tradition that's going to be very very hard 495 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 2: to to for her to give up. But she could 496 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 2: certainly do it and cut back. 497 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:32,440 Speaker 3: I mean, it's they're like fifty bucks per stocking. 498 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 2: But it's not even one stocking. Now everybody's got two 499 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 2: or three.
