Welcome to and that's what 0:00:10.520 --> 0:00:15.160 you really missed podcast Holiday Edition. But like live in 0:00:15.200 --> 0:00:18.280 front of this beautiful screen and set with these things. 0:00:18.640 --> 0:00:20.720 Hi Kevin, Hi Jenna. How are you doing today? I'm 0:00:20.720 --> 0:00:24.160 pretty great? How are you? I feel like I'm ready 0:00:24.239 --> 0:00:27.200 for the holidays. I'm I'm moving in. I'm not leaving 0:00:27.760 --> 0:00:30.520 squatters rights something like that. Right, they can't get rid 0:00:30.520 --> 0:00:33.000 of us. Yeah, you know, we're full of ourselves. We 0:00:33.080 --> 0:00:35.080 put out a couple episodes and now we're like, well 0:00:35.520 --> 0:00:37.720 now we're living in a studio and we need eight 0:00:37.760 --> 0:00:42.080 cameras on us and full lighting and winter wonderland. Yeah, 0:00:42.240 --> 0:00:46.239 this is wonderful. It feels like winter holidays are here. 0:00:46.360 --> 0:00:48.639 We don't really get winter in Los Angeles. Let's be weird. 0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:50.760 No, no no, no no, So I'm taking this opportunity to where 0:00:50.920 --> 0:00:53.360 every warm thing I have, I'm wearing a chunky net. 0:00:54.240 --> 0:00:56.680 I love a chunky net. I do have to say, 0:00:56.760 --> 0:00:58.920 I do count down for this time. You're just so 0:00:58.960 --> 0:01:01.280 I can. The most items of clothing I have in 0:01:01.320 --> 0:01:04.959 my closet are warm things that I will never ever 0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:08.440 get to where a living. Yeah, yeah, so this is 0:01:08.480 --> 0:01:13.200 the time. Yeah, what what's your favorite thing about the holidays? Like, 0:01:13.240 --> 0:01:15.360 what's what are you most excited for coming up in 0:01:15.360 --> 0:01:21.400 the next days. Um. I don't necessarily want the social 0:01:21.440 --> 0:01:24.840 aspect of having to go to parties, but the food 0:01:25.080 --> 0:01:27.160 is why I go to parties. The food gets you 0:01:27.200 --> 0:01:30.679 out of bed and the holiday parties, the food is 0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:33.840 what I want more than anything. What's what kind of food? 0:01:34.440 --> 0:01:37.679 It's the cookies, It's the cakes. It's the warm wine 0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:42.200 old wine that could turn Jenna the Scrooge into the 0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:47.800 Christmas loving angel. Yeah, making snow angels with muled wine. Yeah, 0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:51.360 I just I love it. Now I'm hungry. Yeah, I'm 0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:54.160 always hungry. That's what's why anybody else is all we 0:01:54.160 --> 0:01:57.040 talk about is food. Yeah, that's why I find myself 0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:00.360 And I feel like it's like you get see a 0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:06.160 lot of friends and family and everyone's usually and a 0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:11.440 happy holiday spirit mood. I feel like, Um, when we 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:13.600 were doing Glee, it was like the one time like 0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:16.919 Harry Potter, where everybody left for a while and went 0:02:17.040 --> 0:02:19.440 home and like things were quiet. It was like the 0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:21.919 only time we didn't see each other was the holidays, true, 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:24.600 and it was like a really nice time. I'm just kidding. 0:02:25.560 --> 0:02:27.079 I actually missed you guys a lot, and I feel 0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:29.639 like we probably all talked during the holiday. Yeah, of course, 0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:32.160 we didn't know we were apart. Yeah. I also just 0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:35.519 remember during that time of I was always worried whether 0:02:35.600 --> 0:02:37.960 or not because our last day of shooting for a 0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:40.440 week was we'd usually go really really late at night 0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:43.200 or into the early morning, that we'd be worried about 0:02:43.200 --> 0:02:45.280 making our flights. Yeah, we don't book your flight until 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:49.440 the next day when we all made mistakes. Yeah, you know, 0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:51.520 we did all mistakes. We made a lot of mistakes. 0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:55.160 I have to say, speaking of friends and glee that 0:02:57.280 --> 0:03:00.639 we might have a friend from really here, somebody with 0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:03.799 a Christmas album himself. Did you like the transition? If? 0:03:04.000 --> 0:03:05.720 I thought it was pretty good. I thought it in 0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:07.480 your eyes, and I thought it was coming, and I 0:03:07.520 --> 0:03:10.800 felt compelled to allow you to do it. Thank you 0:03:10.840 --> 0:03:15.480 so much for giving me that space that anytime, Um, 0:03:15.520 --> 0:03:17.680 I think everybody's gonna be really excited, probably more excited 0:03:17.720 --> 0:03:21.640 than watching the two of us voices. Okay, um, the 0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:24.680 one and only dear and christ everybody. I thought what 0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:33.040 you were going to say was speaking of mistakes. This guy. Hi, Hi, guys, 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:36.400 feeling good? Uh? You guys brought up something that I 0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:38.400 just remembered right now that I thought would be fun 0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:40.880 to talk about. Please because it has to do with 0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:44.000 coming back from Christmas break on the show and the show. 0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:46.120 I've noticed it's still picked up because they like it 0:03:46.120 --> 0:03:48.160 when the Glee kids talk about Glee stuff, no matter 0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:52.080 how how tepid or salacious. This is somewhere in between. 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:56.960 That's what I remember talk about, you know. Uh, I 0:03:57.000 --> 0:03:59.440 don't want to say mistakes, that's a little strong of 0:03:59.480 --> 0:04:03.000 a word, but you know, young kids having fun, being wacky. 0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:08.360 I so I joined the show late for for years, remember, 0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:10.160 at least in my mind, even though I know it 0:04:10.200 --> 0:04:11.600 was there a lot for a long time with you guys, 0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:14.360 I was still in this like in between in the 0:04:14.400 --> 0:04:16.640 beginning of still getting to know everybody, and there was 0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:19.320 like a transitionary period where, like you know, it wasn't 0:04:19.360 --> 0:04:21.800 ntil much my longer time in the show really got 0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:26.000 to know like the game. And my second year, the 0:04:26.040 --> 0:04:28.400 Christmas break that I had, I went straight to do 0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:32.359 a show on Broadway. Remember I had to leave in 0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:36.000 this and I missed one episode. So I leave after 0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:38.920 one night that same thing, like getting the flight right afterwards, 0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:40.360 and I went right to rehearsal. I did it and 0:04:40.400 --> 0:04:42.839 I came back and it was like completely wall to 0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:45.120 wall I get back. The first day I had come back, 0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:49.640 we had like a talking to, like like one of 0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:52.120 the big bosses that was kind of like a finger 0:04:52.160 --> 0:04:55.159 wag of like we were just kind of misbehaving or 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:58.440 something during during the episode wherever I was like, guys, 0:04:58.800 --> 0:05:03.880 I left for like two an minutes, what did I miss? Like? 0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:06.080 I just came off this like incredible high of doing 0:05:06.120 --> 0:05:09.000 this this show in Broadway and you guys and we 0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:10.600 had to be sat down and I was like, what 0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:14.200 are we doing? What did you guys? Do? A lot? 0:05:14.240 --> 0:05:16.560 But also did you feel like you were like, well, 0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:19.880 it wasn't me kind of I was. I was getting 0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:21.520 I was like I had like the Dunce camp and 0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:24.520 we were all getting kind of reprimanded for for I 0:05:24.560 --> 0:05:26.960 think it wasn't anything crazy before anybody gets you wild ideas. 0:05:27.000 --> 0:05:28.839 I think we just we were being young kids having 0:05:28.880 --> 0:05:31.520 fun doing I think it was doing the Michael Jackson episode. 0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:34.320 Maybe people were kind of fooling around maybe because of that, 0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:36.800 probably on our phones too much honestly, whatever it was, 0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:38.760 it was something kind of benign. But at the time 0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:40.360 when you're on the clock, it was very stress with 0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:43.560 production for obvious reasons and understandable reasons, but all the same, 0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:45.919 I get back, Hey, guys, how did everything go all right? 0:05:46.000 --> 0:05:49.120 We need to like we got sat down, talked. Very 0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:51.640 clear memory of this was at the dance to Yeah, 0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:53.440 and we were like in a corner and we were 0:05:53.440 --> 0:05:55.640 told three things. All you have to do is show 0:05:56.360 --> 0:05:59.480 beyond time and show up on time, hit your mark, 0:05:59.560 --> 0:06:01.320 and know your lines. And I remember walking out of 0:06:01.360 --> 0:06:04.440 the dancer like I just got here. I just died here. 0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:08.640 Obviously this isn't about you. We all suck and you're 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:11.400 fine now, God knows. I didn't follow that all the 0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:14.400 time either, so I don't love that, but I just 0:06:14.400 --> 0:06:17.599 remember just like, wow, welcome back. It was very I 0:06:17.640 --> 0:06:22.200 love that too, That's what I missed. That was also 0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:24.560 one of the most high school feeling moments, like when 0:06:24.560 --> 0:06:26.839 you're in this professional setting, and it did feel like 0:06:26.839 --> 0:06:29.800 we were called to the principal's office, like we messed up. 0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:34.120 You guys. It wasn't me. It wasn't me who did it? Yeah, exactly, 0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:37.320 But that I mean that stuff is kind of charming 0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:39.560 to me, you know at the time, you know it's 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:42.120 the great uh, it's the great Charlie Chaplin quote. Life 0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:44.320 is tragedy and close up comedy and long shot. Like 0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:47.000 you're talking about a bunch of kids on like a 0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:50.679 television show, like living their dreams. Like I'm not saying 0:06:50.720 --> 0:06:52.920 it makes it any easier for the people in charge, 0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:55.440 but like it's kind of part of the territory. Like 0:06:55.640 --> 0:06:57.760 we weren't that bad, we were that bad. We were 0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:00.200 pretty good. Yeah, but you know he was he was 0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:02.000 doing our producer that give us us talking to was 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:04.839 doing his damn job. Like it's it's all good. But anyway, 0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:07.520 I just find little story I just remember now when 0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:11.160 you're like you were, and I don't remember anything that 0:07:11.200 --> 0:07:13.440 was a fun one, all the holiday stuff that we 0:07:13.480 --> 0:07:15.680 did on the show. Okay, so what's your favorite? What 0:07:15.680 --> 0:07:18.520 What was another really good one that you remember? What? 0:07:19.800 --> 0:07:25.440 I really really loved them. The Judy Garland episode recreation 0:07:25.840 --> 0:07:29.720 we did Matt directed it and being a big old 0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:33.440 Hollywood nerd is a recreation of the nineteen sixty four 0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:36.880 Judy Garland Christmas special or She's like a little I 0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:40.000 think it's no, it's yeah. Somebody fact checked me. I 0:07:40.080 --> 0:07:41.320 might be off by a few years. But this is 0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:43.160 where I caught you on your I remember catching you. 0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:45.120 I was not coming back to me. I remember sitting 0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:48.080 in the auditorium with you and you were watching Judy 0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:50.320 Garland videos. Yeah, as we were like setting up a 0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:53.160 shot in the auditorium and you're like yeah, yeah, because 0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:55.720 I was watching, I wanted to see how how similar 0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:58.280 it was totally doing. They recreated her house, it's like 0:07:58.280 --> 0:08:01.760 a mid century house. Did the Christmas wrapping dance. Yeah, 0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:05.600 but it's that whole like Christmas wonderful special paradigm of 0:08:05.640 --> 0:08:07.680 like who could be at the doll, like you know, 0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:11.520 special guests come through. The first Christmas special we did, no, 0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:14.080 I don't think so. Was the second, Well, they're always 0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:17.360 Christmas Eve things, but that one was like evoking the 0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:20.680 old school Christmas TV special and I loved that one 0:08:20.760 --> 0:08:24.320 was so good. I did um Let It Snow with 0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:26.320 Chris and that's like one of my favorite was that 0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:31.040 the roller skating rank No that Yeah. I had a 0:08:31.080 --> 0:08:34.480 bunch of good Christmas ones. We did the ice skating rink. 0:08:34.520 --> 0:08:38.000 We had Baby It's Cold outside, which and then but 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:40.760 let it snow like that arrangement. I've told the Andrews brothers, like, 0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:44.319 that's like one of my favorite arrangements. The best arrangement 0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:47.240 of all were the Christmas albums. Yeah, all the Christmas 0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:50.240 song so good. Everyone just got to go crazy on Yeah. 0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:52.839 I really like the one that's right that did the 0:08:52.920 --> 0:08:55.760 Christmas round. I did it, I did it. That was 0:08:55.880 --> 0:08:57.880 fun one. I like that. I didn't get to that 0:08:57.960 --> 0:09:00.920 Tangled in the ribbon anyway, that's my fun memory. I 0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:13.760 love that stuff. What's your favorite non Glee because sometimes 0:09:13.760 --> 0:09:17.920 we got to talk about nonly Christmas, Christmas traditions, Christmas memories, 0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:21.560 Christmas things that you do. I'll give you the there's 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:23.320 so many, I mean this Christmas albums. So I spent 0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:26.439 like a good year thinking about nothing but Christmas. Also, yeah, 0:09:27.080 --> 0:09:30.480 album is incredible and everyone should go down get it. 0:09:31.200 --> 0:09:34.080 Aside from the very obvious eye rolling pun of the 0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:36.280 album title of Very Deary Christmas, it is a very 0:09:36.400 --> 0:09:38.920 mean thing. All the songs are very left of center 0:09:39.000 --> 0:09:43.120 and kind of odd. Um, but my favorite Christmas things, 0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:47.320 I mean, I grew up doing this thing with my 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:50.080 my My dad was an amazing chef and he would 0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:52.040 he had this thing because he spent a lot of 0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:55.400 time in England was a big anglophile where he would 0:09:55.440 --> 0:10:00.560 make a Christmas goose like wow, Yeah, and I did 0:10:00.600 --> 0:10:01.679 it since I was a kid. It was a huge 0:10:01.679 --> 0:10:04.040 tradition with with my parents, friends and their kids and 0:10:04.040 --> 0:10:06.959 we did every year. So yeah, Goose Knight was a 0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:09.920 big thing that we love special. It was the best. 0:10:09.960 --> 0:10:12.079 So there's a throw to that in the album. I 0:10:12.240 --> 0:10:14.240 changed the lyric of one of the songs called those 0:10:14.320 --> 0:10:17.120 Christmas cliches, and I say, I want the goose with 0:10:17.160 --> 0:10:19.000 all the gravy, the great I want the goose with 0:10:19.080 --> 0:10:23.000 all the gravy, the goose that dad only ever made. Yeah, 0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:24.960 so that's a that's a nice tradition. And we did 0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:26.960 all the you know the kids who play music, and 0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:28.960 there's gifts exchange. Yeah, and now you get to create 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:35.280 new memories with your new baby exciting you've always been. 0:10:35.360 --> 0:10:37.679 It's wild. Thank you you said that. I didn't.

Um? 0:10:58.840 --> 0:11:02.319 We go to uh, my favorite Italian restaurant on Christmas 0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:04.960 Eve every year. Still do it. And and then we 0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:08.719 go home and we watch a marathon that's on one 0:11:08.760 --> 0:11:13.600 of those TV channels. Where's the restaurant. It's on Long Island, 0:11:14.720 --> 0:11:17.280 so you get East Coast winter Christmas, that's right, we 0:11:17.320 --> 0:11:19.560 get windy Christmas. We get some fish because my dad 0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:22.000 was Italian, so we do like Christmas Eve, we get 0:11:22.040 --> 0:11:26.200 some fishies. That's the Italian things to the Seven fishes. Yeah, 0:11:26.440 --> 0:11:28.960 we don't really do like the true traditions. We just 0:11:29.000 --> 0:11:31.040 eat something. You know what, it is true tradition because 0:11:31.040 --> 0:11:33.760 it's you guys do it. It's your tradition, so it 0:11:33.880 --> 0:11:36.280 is a true that's right. You can. We get to 0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:39.520 bring the baby to eat some some fish as well. 0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:46.120 That's exciting. We watch a Christmas story which runs favorite 0:11:47.240 --> 0:11:53.480 what about you, Kevin traditions? My favorite chicken. Well, no, 0:11:53.640 --> 0:11:55.800 my family won't do it, but I do get my 0:11:56.000 --> 0:12:00.679 country gravy for like Christmas breakfast. And then right, yes, 0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:03.640 and we get a big breakfast, and I've sort of 0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:07.280 taken over the mantle of the big morning breakfast. Now 0:12:07.800 --> 0:12:12.160 are you are? You are? But I do have certain 0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:16.040 like you just think holiday traditions when like for Thanksgiving, 0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:18.840 I've now taken over cooking everything. So proud of you 0:12:19.480 --> 0:12:22.679 because I'm just particular, don't this family has let everything go. 0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:25.520 I got it, let me figure it out. Appreciate that. 0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:28.560 And so for for Christmas breakfast, I now do that 0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:31.160 as well, and so I look forward to it. But 0:12:31.440 --> 0:12:34.000 we had a revolt my my brother in law he 0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:37.640 cooked Christ's breakfast and then stopped, and my sister in 0:12:37.720 --> 0:12:39.560 law and I were like, well, no, that can't happen, 0:12:39.840 --> 0:12:42.360 So we'll do it instead because we need it. I mean, 0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:44.760 just just like that, there are traditions for holidays. That's 0:12:44.760 --> 0:12:47.240 what anything about the holidays that there are things that 0:12:47.320 --> 0:12:50.679 you do like it. It's not like a yes follows here, 0:12:50.760 --> 0:12:54.280 let's bust out the blank. I don't know. It's like 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:57.679 other than like broad spectrum things like the holidays are 0:12:57.760 --> 0:12:59.640 very specific to a lot of things that very nostalgic. 0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:02.760 There's there's a there's a their themes, there's an aesthetic, 0:13:03.160 --> 0:13:06.840 there's a menu. Yet there are songs that's got. There's movies. 0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:12.240 What are your favorite movies? National Lampoons, Christmas Vacation? Basic? 0:13:12.320 --> 0:13:18.960 But dude, well, violand Land Love actually is also great, dude, 0:13:18.960 --> 0:13:22.960 I love We can open that box another time, another podcast, 0:13:21.800 --> 0:13:25.840 yet Love Island. After this, it was the British connection 0:13:26.160 --> 0:13:31.120 and the sort of anglophilic thing I have for English stuff. Actually, 0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:35.600 come on, that's a holiday Holidays amazing. I mean, come on, 0:13:36.760 --> 0:13:41.319 Jude Law, Winslet, Jack Black, Cameron Diaz. I'm trying to 0:13:41.320 --> 0:13:43.440 think of other ones. Yeah, those are like the hit 0:13:44.480 --> 0:13:49.760 what On, hold On, hold On too. This is a 0:13:49.760 --> 0:13:51.959 big one. This is a discussion that I see every year. 0:13:52.040 --> 0:13:55.160 Some publication decides to wage war on this, like die 0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:59.679 Hard Baby, Yes, die Hard, Come On, which is a 0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:01.800 Chris this movie. I think Bruce Willis when I record 0:14:01.840 --> 0:14:04.599 saying it wasn't, but I'm telling you it is. Sorry 0:14:04.920 --> 0:14:07.600 like Christmas, because honestly, it was one of those times 0:14:07.600 --> 0:14:09.280 like when we were shooting and we'd be away from 0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:12.280 each other, it was actually like the industry shuts down. 0:14:12.640 --> 0:14:15.600 Everybody shuts down, and you're like, oh, nobody's working. We 0:14:15.679 --> 0:14:18.400 can't work. We have to actually relax, So that was 0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:22.280 really go on like a trip or something that's not 0:14:22.280 --> 0:14:24.800 only seeing your family. But that's when I would go, yeah, 0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:27.480 travel a little. I mean if I would, when we 0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:30.920 would get on holiday break, I would do nothing. I 0:14:30.920 --> 0:14:33.560 remember binging watch like I would save everything I wanted 0:14:33.600 --> 0:14:36.160 to watch all year after that point and just set 0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:40.040 at home. Yeah, because there's only so much British baking 0:14:40.160 --> 0:14:45.760 Christmas special at all. They bake off British bake off. Dude. 0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:48.600 They did it with the Dairy Girls, great episode Your 0:14:48.880 --> 0:14:51.600 Girls fan. I messed up one time because before I 0:14:51.640 --> 0:14:53.320 knew that bake off was, they asked me to do 0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:56.880 an episode like that. It was years and I had 0:14:57.080 --> 0:14:59.560 no idea what it was. It didn't really start like 0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:03.280 blowing up in the stage. I made the biggest mistake. 0:15:03.320 --> 0:15:06.040 I was in England working and I wenter from my 0:15:06.080 --> 0:15:07.880 friend's house like, hey, do you guys know what this 0:15:07.920 --> 0:15:10.840 bake off show is? They're like sitting yeah, we're gonna 0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:12.600 show you, and then happen to the episode is like 0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:14.520 you say yes. It was like it's too late, was 0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:21.280 a dude. The English on the holiday treats man, that's 0:15:21.320 --> 0:15:23.320 every show and also like every show has a holiday 0:15:23.320 --> 0:15:26.440 special everything. Yeah, that's kind of like the way they 0:15:26.440 --> 0:15:29.240 do the One that Got Away. You can just like 0:15:29.360 --> 0:15:33.120 you there now, Yeah, just like you we're gonna talk 0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:37.320 about that. I'm gonna go see I'm just stirring the pot. 0:15:37.360 --> 0:15:40.520 This stirring a pot that doesn't staring the Glee t 0:15:42.160 --> 0:15:46.160 of thing. Don't look into that. I'm Jenna's side before, 0:15:46.160 --> 0:15:51.920 are we sayings the bill? Yeah? You guys deserve each other. Yeah, 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:56.280 don't Do you have favorite holiday music? Obviously, honestly Glee 0:15:56.360 --> 0:16:00.320 music do you play? I feel that's the only time 0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:03.400 I've ever heard our Glee music is during the holidays, 0:16:03.440 --> 0:16:06.080 because they would just play the real song ye if 0:16:06.520 --> 0:16:09.160 public you know, the actual teenage drink, but the Christmas 0:16:09.160 --> 0:16:13.080 so yeah, they are. I'm I don't know what's your 0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:16.880 favorite Christmas songs? We did you do? That was your 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:20.280 favorite on your album? That like, which was like, we 0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:22.200 don't have enough time. There's so much to say about 0:16:22.240 --> 0:16:24.440 Christmas music because and Kevin knows this. Because of my 0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:27.960 favorite topics with Kevin is like music and albums and musicology, 0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:31.520 and what I love about Christmas albums is like there 0:16:31.560 --> 0:16:35.040 are genre you know, and so many people have made 0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:40.000 Christmas albums and Christmas originals that having spent a lifetime 0:16:40.600 --> 0:16:43.520 consuming Christmas albums, like, I've spent a lot of time 0:16:43.560 --> 0:16:45.520 thinking about if I did it, Here's how I do it, 0:16:45.560 --> 0:16:47.240 Here's how to make it different, Here's how I have 0:16:47.320 --> 0:16:48.880 to do it because I have to make it accessible. 0:16:48.920 --> 0:16:50.680 So I has to sound like this, but I want 0:16:50.720 --> 0:16:53.160 to like sort of use it as like like trick 0:16:53.200 --> 0:16:55.240 you to think that it's, you know, familiar, But here's 0:16:55.240 --> 0:16:57.960 some really weird left of center stuff. So I grew 0:16:58.040 --> 0:17:01.040 up listening to a lot of weird stuff, and I, 0:17:00.000 --> 0:17:03.200 if I had my way, the entire album would have 0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:05.840 been songs no one's ever heard. But I'm not an idiot, 0:17:05.880 --> 0:17:07.439 and obviously you have to put things that people know. 0:17:07.600 --> 0:17:10.760 It's like a gateway. Hopefully it's other things. But long 0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:15.320 form answer is there is this what I couldn't have 0:17:15.359 --> 0:17:17.520 covered it because it's the best recording of it. Do 0:17:17.520 --> 0:17:20.320 you guys know this famous cover of O Holy Night 0:17:20.440 --> 0:17:23.399 of like the guy screaming his way through it? It 0:17:23.480 --> 0:17:25.560 has a whole history. I encourage people to look it up. 0:17:25.600 --> 0:17:28.320 It's called like the Holy Night, worst version ever, the 0:17:28.359 --> 0:17:32.320 funniest version ever. It's by a guy. It's somehow got leaked. 0:17:32.320 --> 0:17:34.840 It's like one of these internet memes stories where it 0:17:34.960 --> 0:17:37.440 was like uncovered, and it's by a guy named Steve 0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:39.280 Malden who was like a record producer who was just 0:17:39.320 --> 0:17:41.280 kind of taking the piss and just joking when he's 0:17:41.280 --> 0:17:44.040 recording it. But his vocal performance of the Holy Night 0:17:44.680 --> 0:17:47.680 is one of the It's one of the funniest Christmas 0:17:47.680 --> 0:17:49.720 songs I've ever heard. We used to listen to it 0:17:49.760 --> 0:17:53.199 as a family. Just crack up that end Hippopotamusr Christmas, 0:17:53.240 --> 0:17:54.840 which is the song that I covered on the album 0:17:55.080 --> 0:17:56.920 in honor of my mom, who like always lip sings 0:17:56.960 --> 0:17:59.320 that song chas time. So I have a lot to 0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:01.399 say about Chrismas music. I mean, oh Holy Name is 0:18:01.400 --> 0:18:04.359 also my showers song what it goes. But it's a 0:18:04.440 --> 0:18:07.080 nice because I do like a love top key change 0:18:07.160 --> 0:18:10.320 thing where I just keep going nice and then I see, like, 0:18:10.600 --> 0:18:12.920 how terrible is my voice?

What I'm gonna do 0:21:21.840 --> 0:21:24.640 is pretend to do something and then make a mess, 0:21:24.720 --> 0:21:27.080 but then pick up an actually finished cookie that looks 0:21:27.119 --> 0:21:29.320 actually and hold it up because you guys aren't close 0:21:29.400 --> 0:21:31.119 enough to see me. I just want to eat. Make 0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:33.600 it as honestly curious if I could actually decorate a cookie? 0:21:34.080 --> 0:21:35.800 Dat the man? You mean, let's do it.

All I was going to say 0:21:42.240 --> 0:21:44.240 is this is a little factoid, see this little the 0:21:44.320 --> 0:21:47.439 loser hand thing? Yeah, never actually did this. You didn't 0:21:47.560 --> 0:21:50.399 never did it because you didn't season you guys. You 0:21:50.480 --> 0:21:52.680 guys did it for I think the first season. All 0:21:52.760 --> 0:21:55.720 your art work was that I've seen it, but it's fake. 0:21:55.880 --> 0:22:01.000 Somebody photoshopped on my head. So I never well, honestly, 0:22:01.080 --> 0:22:03.800 we also got um. The ad really ended up being 0:22:03.960 --> 0:22:06.720 like Sue and Quinn doing the l to us, so 0:22:06.880 --> 0:22:10.399 we weren't right. Yeah, I've never actually done this for 0:22:10.480 --> 0:22:13.000 any Did you know that there was going to be 0:22:13.680 --> 0:22:16.480 a War Wars spinoff? Did Ryan ever talk to you 0:22:16.520 --> 0:22:19.960 about that? Oh? Yeah, did you know? When? I? Okay, 0:22:20.080 --> 0:22:22.920 I think I mean whatever he said is what is 0:22:23.359 --> 0:22:25.040 the thing? I don't have no idea. I think he 0:22:25.119 --> 0:22:27.520 probably thought about it, But I think Ryan thinks about 0:22:27.520 --> 0:22:30.440 a lot of things, so I don't think that's like 0:22:30.720 --> 0:22:33.159 not true obviously, but it was even talk to you 0:22:33.240 --> 0:22:37.080 about it? Definitely not a serious capacity. When did you 0:22:37.160 --> 0:22:41.600
