Speaker 1: I've been I've been so slammed. I really planned to actually,

26
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,919
Speaker 5: like every year, if you just drop one song every

27
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,320
Speaker 5: year until we die, that's a hell of a library.

28
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:11,559
Speaker 5: Like Mariah carry can.

29
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 6: Just that is a lot of Christmas albums. I know

30
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,320
Speaker 6: I should. Maybe maybe there's still time. You never know.

31
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 6: I am, I am in the last minute.

32
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 5: I'm just a little impulsive.

33
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 6: You do well.

34
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:26,720

Speaker 5: This is an Elvis house, yes, yeah. I mean it's

37
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,479
Speaker 5: like it was one thing when it was just Jeff

38
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 5: and I and we were into the Elvis of it all.

39
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 5: But then Gus watched that Boslerman Elvis movie every day

40
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 5: for three months and went as Elvis for Halloween, and

41
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 5: so now like that child is all Elvis. Oh, and

42
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 5: then George just became obsessed with Lee Lo and Stitch,

43
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 5: So now she's obsessed with Elvis. Amazing Elvis Christmas.

44
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 7: I like all the old school stuff, Like I want

45
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,480

56
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: it was last year or the year before. I think

57
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: it was the year before.

58
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 5: It's beautiful.

59
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:39,000

Speaker 1: is like butter and Yeah, that one surprised me.

61
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 6: I really love that album.

62
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,239
Speaker 5: All right, ladies, Owen wants to know if there had

63
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 5: been an opportunity to do an episode abroad, where would

64
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 5: you pick m.

65
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 7: In the later years Hill when you had gone. They

66
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 7: took us to Puerto Rico for an episode, which like

67
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 7: isn't technically abroad, but felt pretty fun.

68
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 5: Really like it was more abroad than which where we

69
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 5: would just go when I was there, Yeah.

70
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 7: Exactly, but I feel like abroad means, you know, truly

71
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 7: you have to go to I know you need you

72
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 7: need a passport, right, Like, I don't know. I always

73
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 7: have so much fun when we all go to Paris together, Like,

74
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 7: wouldn't it have been fun to shoot an episode there

75
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 7: and just like sit in cafes and eat macaroons together?

76
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, Paris and London. That would have been fun.

77
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: I actually I would have loved to have gone to

78
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: Italy for an episode. We really would have had a

79
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: ball if they had taken us to Roam or Lawrence

80
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: or something. That would have been really fun.

81
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 5: My favorite place that we've ever gone. Jeff and I

82
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 5: we don't know how to vacation. Just like vacation. We

83
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 5: only go places for work and then spend a couple

84
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 5: extra days. Like, I don't know how to vacation. I've

85
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 5: never done it. Uh. When he had to go shoot

86
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 5: a commercial in New New Zealand, Gus and I tagged along,

87
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 5: and it's a hop getting there. I mean, that's a

88
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 5: long flight. But once you're there, that Lord of the

89
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 5: Rings energy, those trees and the waterfalls and like the

90
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 5: mountains and like all that Hobbits was so awesome. And

91
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 5: I haven't even watched Lord of the Rings. It was

92
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 5: just such a majestic environment. Literally every day Gus and

93
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 5: I went and did the most interesting thing that we've

94
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 5: ever done in our lives.

95
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: You know.

96
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 5: We were taking those crazy little speedboats under waterfalls and

97
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,280
Speaker 5: going to see where sea monsters live and just it

98
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 5: was so gorgeous and so wild, and everyone there that

99
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 5: like that New Zealand sense of humor that like Flight

100
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 5: of the Concords had. Yes, I just I was so

101
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 5: won over by New Zealand going to shoot our show

102
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 5: in the you know this magical green.

103
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,280
Speaker 1: Country, just beautiful. Yeah, I would love to shoot there,

104
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: Thank you Ewen. So okay, when the show was airing,

105
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: would your parents and grandparents watch? This is from Carla, Hi, Carla,

106
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 1: did your parents and grandparents watch the show? And what

107
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: did they What did they think of it? Was the feedback?

108
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: I don't my grandparents didn't. I think my grandma might

109
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 1: have watched it, but I don't remember hearing much feedback.

110
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 1: My parents probably did for a minute, but then I

111
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 1: think it was like any other job. They were like, yeah,

112
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: good job. I mean I know what you I know

113
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: what you do, I know what you look like when

114
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 1: you talk.

115
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 6: You're fine.

116
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 5: I know what you look like when you talk. I'm

117
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 5: not impressed.

118
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 6: So you need to see this every day?

119
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 5: Yeah that's hilarious. Yeah.

120
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 7: I think the novelty wears off pretty quick and then

121
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 7: they're like this is weird. Mine were like, we'd rather

122
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 7: talk to you than watch you pretend to be someone

123
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 7: else and like make out with people we're good.

124
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,840
Speaker 5: I don't really have like family is a weird thing

125
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,799
Speaker 5: for me, So I don't have relationships with grandparents or anything.

126
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 5: But in the last month, when I've been doing this

127
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 5: book tour, I've been spending a lot of time with

128
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 5: all my old high school teachers. And those were like

129
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 5: adopted relatives, you know, Like that's like the ant tribe.

130
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 5: All those chicks were in charge of raising me. Yeah,

131
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,359
Speaker 5: and they have strong opinions about all the boys I

132
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 5: kissed on the show, and like the mischief I got into,

133
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 5: and like how I dressed and stuff. Just hearing their

134
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 5: commentary has been a delight because they're like, Hillary, seriously

135
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 5: kissing your best friend's boyfriend. That's ridiculous. Sorry, ladies, I

136
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 5: didn't make that decision.

137
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 4: I love.

138
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's funny, You're like, it wasn't my choice.

139
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 5: No, And they knew me as this like super studious,

140
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 5: Like I was a school nerd. I loved school. Yeah,

141
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 5: Like the fact that Peyton saw I didn't go to

142
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 5: college like that was also problematic. Yeah, it's cool. I

143
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 5: think it's funny. Especially the people who are watching it

144
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 5: have the freedom to make fun of you and call

145
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 5: you on your Those are fun phone calls to get Yeah, yeah.

146
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 7: Oh, this is a good question from Susan. I feel

147
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 7: like we talk about this a little bit. But Joy

148
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 7: and Hill, would you let your kids following your footsteps

149
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 7: and go into act?

150
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 6: Sure? Yeah, but they just have to take it seriously,

151
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 6: like I don't.

152
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 1: Uh, it's not a hobby, like I mean, it can

153
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: be a hobby, but not like as a you can't

154
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: make a career out of it if you treat it

155
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 1: like a hobby. It's has to be something you really

156
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: take seriously. Otherwise I think there's just no, there's no hope.

157
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: It's such a miserable existence as an actor.

158
00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 9: Without but you know what I mean, Like the sacrifices

159
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 9: are so huge, and it's this constant rejection and constant criticism.

160
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 6: No, it's terrible.

161
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: You have to really believe in the work and really

162
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 1: believe that you're meant to do it. And if you

163
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: do and you take it seriously and that's who you are,

164
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: then great, do it. But if not, like, go go

165
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: please go find something else to do.

166
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 5: I mean, Gus just started acting last year, right, He

167
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 5: really had it in his head that he wanted to

168
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 5: be a director, and so he was making all of

169
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 5: these movies at home, and he was writing scripts and

170
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 5: he would always get like the little storyboard notebooks and

171
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 5: he would just storyboard movies for hours and hours and

172
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 5: hours a day, Like, oh yeah, Gus really puts so

173
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 5: much thought and effort into the production side of things.

174
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 5: This is a child that will like take budgets and

175
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 5: go through budgets just to see what those look like.

176
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 5: He was so well. As I was producing more and more,

177
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 5: he really immersed himself in that side of it. And

178
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 5: so last year he was like, well, I'm just going

179
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 5: to do a play just so I can understand actors,

180
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 5: you guys, I mean, So he did a Christmas Carol.

181
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 5: He played Jacob Marley and he did a really really

182
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,559
Speaker 5: good job, but he had to sing in front of people,

183
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,440
Speaker 5: which was like totally new and when you're like a

184
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,439
Speaker 5: twelve year old boy, it's so hard. And so then

185
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 5: this year, our town does this play every year. He

186
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 5: since played Oberon in Midsummer and he went into the

187
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 5: audition process and he came home and I was like,

188
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 5: how was it, And he was very just like, you know,

189
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 5: I don't want to jinx anything, but I did my best,

190
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 5: Like I know that I showed up and I'm like,

191
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 5: that's all it it And so he Scrooged this year

192
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 5: and carrying that little show. It's the first play I

193
00:09:58,360 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 5: ever took him to. I think when he was like

194
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 5: two or three years old, I took him to this

195
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 5: town production and it was his first time in a theater,

196
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 5: first time in the little fall down seats. And so

197
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 5: to have him play Scrooge this year is a nice,

198
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 5: big full circle moment, except now he's like, but where

199
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 5: do I go from here? Like, what's next? Mummy? Good?

200
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 5: It's very serious business. Great, But I don't know that

201
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 5: I would let him do like TV that seems different,

202
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 5: so diffnity theater.

203
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I would that. I feel the same way.

204
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:34,080
Speaker 1: I think I would probably reserve that for when she

205
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 1: was eighteen, Like, okay, you're on your own, you can

206
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,680
Speaker 1: go do that. But now learn, learn in theater, Learn

207
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: with other kids. Learn ye god, they're so cute. Learn

208
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: where nobody's waiting on you hand and foot.

209
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 5: Yeah. Man, no, it's a community theater, such a good

210
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 5: space for kids to figure out who they are, and like,

211
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 5: you have adults validating you in that space. So when

212
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 5: you go back to regular school and like pissant, kids

213
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 5: are making fun of you. You're like whatever, I'm best

214
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 5: friends with Peggy.

215
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 6: Yea.

216
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 5: My best friend in sixth grade was Peggy. She was

217
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 5: a banker. She would call me from the bank be like,

218
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 5: oh my god.

219
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: It does kind of give you a bird's eye view

220
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 1: of high school problems, though, like the kids that you

221
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: really get sucked into feeling like it's the end of

222
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: the world, like everything that you're experiencing, because when you're

223
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: in high.

224
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 6: School it is your whole world.

225
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, But to be able to have a life outside

226
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 1: and like you said, have adults that are that you

227
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: look up to, who respect you, and just give you

228
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: a perspective outside of the world that you're immersed in

229
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: every day. I think that's so valuable.

230
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 5: Is that the only.

231
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 6: Space when that happens.

232
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 5: Because I'm thinking about middle school and high school sports,

233
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 5: Like when you're fourteen, you don't go play sports with

234
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 5: thirty year olds, Like you don't go play sports with

235
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 5: like sixty five year olds. But if you're a kid

236
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 5: doing theater, you're doing your club activity with like a

237
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 5: huge age range of people.

238
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: Was actually a huge reason probably why high school drama.

239
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 1: I'd always sort of had this perspective of it's gonna

240
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 1: be okay, Like, as soon as I get out of here,

241
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 1: everything's going to be fine.

242
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 6: Because I knew I.

243
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 1: Was joining a world that I had already been a

244
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: part of and exposed to for a long time, but

245
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: I was fully going to be joining that world as

246
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 1: an adult, and so it it did make make high

247
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: school hard times feel like this too shall pass. And

248
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 1: that's interesting that you're saying that I had never thought

249
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: of that before.

250
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 6: I think that's really true.

251
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was always able to be friends with people

252
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,439
Speaker 5: much younger and much older because that was a part

253
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 5: of the theater scene as opposed to like my brothers

254
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:45,719
Speaker 5: played baseball. They're not playing softball with a bunch of

255
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 5: dads on the weekends the way that we were so interesting. Hmmm, Yes,

256
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 5: we want well rounded children that can hang out with anybody. Okay,

257
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 5: So now we're gonna pivot, guys, let's go holiday. Let's

258
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 5: go holiday.

259
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 7: Okay.

260
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 5: Cody wants to know what is your favorite holiday food

261
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 5: or what's the weirdest dish on your table for the holidays.

262
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: Favorite holiday food always is stuffing and it has to

263
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,719
Speaker 1: have raisins in it. Don't talk to me stuffing has

264
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: to have raisins in it.

265
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 5: Wait, you're saying it has to have raisins in it?

266
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, interesting, Bring me stuffing with no raisins.

267
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 6: Huh.

268
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's probably my favorite stuffing. Maybe pecan pie ooh,

269
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:36,719
Speaker 1: pecan nut, Yeah, weirdest dish.

270
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:41,199
Speaker 5: So my favorite's Virginia ham. And this is the barometer

271
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,559
Speaker 5: for how much I love my husband because I don't

272
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 5: eat turkey. I think it's gross. I've always thought it

273
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,680
Speaker 5: was gross, but when I met him, I had to

274
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 5: forego my ham holidays because that man loves turkey more

275
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 5: than anything on the planet. And so up until recently,

276
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 5: I have pretended for like a daycade and a half like, mmm,

277
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 5: I love this because he spends like all week working

278
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 5: on this thing, Jen Like, I love it when all

279
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 5: I want is a tacky little honey baked ham with

280
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 5: that sugar glaze on there, that spiral cut.

281
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: The Christmas with the cranks honey baked ham that she

282
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 1: goes and gets run over by a truck about big

283
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 1: tin of ham.

284
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, ham is I'm from Virginia. Virginia ham is legendary.

285
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 5: It's in my DNA, and so Jeffrey, like in our

286
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 5: gift of the magi situation. Recently started buying just like

287
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 5: little half hams and just kind of squirreling them away

288
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 5: and surprising me with a little half ham. That is

289
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 5: so sweet because then the day after you get to

290
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 5: fry it up like it's bacon and it's delicious, and

291
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 5: you get to eat it on a little Hawaiian roll

292
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 5: sandwiches for the next week. I love it. I don't

293
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 5: think it's it's weird. The weird thing is that I

294
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 5: used to make a really fancy cranberry sauce, like a

295
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 5: beautiful Martha Stewart looking gorgeous thing, and that man only

296
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 5: eats cranberry sauce out of the can, like the Shelley

297
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 5: Cranberry sauce, and he doesn't even want me to put

298
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 5: it in a dish. He's like, Hillary, just leave it

299
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 5: in the can so I'll have all my pretty li

300
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 5: crusades out. And Jeff's just like, where's my carron? Like

301
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 5: a caveman, what are you gonna do?

302
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 4: I love it.

303
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 7: I don't know what's weird, but yeah, you're right, Joy

304
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 7: when you asked earlier, like what might seem weird? Culturally?

305
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 7: There's a there's like a big Italian tradition of the

306
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 7: Feast of the Seven Fishes, and.

307
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 8: I, oh, yeah, I started doing like really wild, like

308
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 8: you know, branzino stuffed with like herbs and olives and

309
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 8: like Linguini Vangelis, and.

310
00:15:58,360 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 5: People are like, is this holiday food?

311
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 7: Like I don't know, but it's seafood and it's delicious.

312
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 8: So this is what we're having.

313
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 7: Yeah, that makes me happy.

314
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 5: I've never done Feast of the Seven Fishes. What's the background, Like,
