1 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:15,400 Speaker 1: There's a time for everything. Seems like I've read that 2 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:17,720 Speaker 1: somewhere once, but we're not gonna win into that right now. 3 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:22,520 Speaker 1: But there is a time for everything. That when people die, 4 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,800 Speaker 1: there's a time you should take to mourn. It takes up. 5 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: It's important, it's part of human nature. There's a time 6 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: to mourn, time to stop mourning. There's a time for war, 7 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: time for peace. I realize I'm plage rising a lot 8 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 1: of this from your book, Layd, but you understand what 9 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 1: I mean. That's the nature of things. There's a time 10 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:45,239 Speaker 1: for everything. And because you are a political person, you 11 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't be watching my show right here on the Great 12 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 1: First if you weren't a political person. I'm a political person. 13 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: And because politics is what it is, especially in America today, 14 00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 1: how hard do you have to look to get mad 15 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 1: about something, to feel badly about something, to put yourself 16 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: in a bad mood about something. I'll be honest with you. 17 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: Just just do me talking here, shooting you straight. Last night, 18 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: wife was watching one of her shows. Boys had gotten 19 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: all their chores, then we'd turn them loose. They were 20 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: playing and I just had some time and instead of 21 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: doing what I try to do when I have some time, 22 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 1: which is read a book or watch a documentary. I know, 23 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: I'm an old nerd. Instead of doing any of that, 24 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: I thought to myself, you know, I want to see 25 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: what's on in the news. Let's see, let's see what's 26 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: going on in the world. So I didn't turn on 27 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: the news. You're right, because I'm not an idiot. If 28 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 1: I turn on anything, i'd be the first said. I 29 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 1: picked up my phone and I went scrolling through the 30 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 1: political news here and there and here and there. And 31 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: remember I was doing fine when I started this. Twenty 32 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: minutes later, I got up to go get something from 33 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: the kitchen and the wife looks at me. She sees 34 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: me over there, she says, what's wrong? Because I just 35 00:01:54,920 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: had this scowl on my face, Because this stuff sometimes 36 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: it just puts you in a bad mood, doesn't it. 37 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: Sometimes it just is a gigantic downer. And not that 38 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: the battle's not worth it. I understand that we're going 39 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: to keep doing that, but I do think it is important, 40 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 1: especially around Thanksgiving time, Christmas time, this time of year. 41 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: I do think it is important to talk about good 42 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 1: things now and then right life is good. I've used 43 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 1: this example before, but I'm never going to stop using 44 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 1: it because it is so appropriate. This right here, this 45 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: is a glass of water, just clean drinking water. I 46 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 1: know you think I drink bourbon during the show. That's 47 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 1: not true. It's I should just water. I promise this 48 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: is a glass of water. I am seventeen eighteen feet away. 49 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: I would guess from if I were to chug this 50 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: glass of water, going back and filling it up, filling 51 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,119 Speaker 1: it up as many times as I want, I could 52 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: just sit there and fill it up and keep dumping 53 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 1: it down the drain if I want. And the water 54 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: in here, it's clean drinking water. There aren't any parasites 55 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: in this water. It's not going to kill me or 56 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: my family. I am like seventeen feet away from endless 57 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: amounts of clean drinking water. I know you're an American. 58 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: I'm an American. With all due respects to our international viewers, 59 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: we're Americans, so we probably don't get how amazing that is. 60 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: But today today, many many, many, many many people around 61 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: the globe woke up and they died because they didn't 62 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: have access to one of these, not one. Look around you. 63 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: You don't have to go far. Maybe you're in a 64 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: crappy apartment somewhere, or maybe you're in a mansion. Maybe 65 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: you're watching this from work when you should be working. 66 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: Look around you, look at all the blessings we have, 67 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: look at how good life is here. And we can 68 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: go on and on and on about how they're trying 69 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: to destroy it and about stuffs true, but just think 70 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: about this. Think about if you woke up Sunday morning 71 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: and you decided you want to do go to church 72 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: in America, you could do that. Nobody would stop you, shoot, 73 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: nobody would even frown at you. You realize there are 74 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: people all across the globe if they woke up on 75 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 1: a Sunday morning and decided they wanted to go to church, 76 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: they would understand that maybe their last day alive on 77 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: this planet for doing so. Have you thought about things like, 78 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 1: and I know this is hokey, I'm gonna sound like 79 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: a grandpa, but have you thought about things like how 80 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: cool our environment is in this country? How cool our 81 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 1: geography is here? Now? Maybe it's just because I've traveled 82 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: this country to and fro for a long time. I've 83 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: lived everywhere, I've visited everywhere, but the mountains, the deserts, 84 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 1: the rivers, the beautiful Northeast in the fall, the beaches 85 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: of Florida. This is an awesome, awesome place to live. 86 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: The fact that you were born in the United States 87 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: of America means you already won life's lottery. It is 88 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: good to be here. Be thankful for it. And another 89 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: thing I think about. I think about this a lot. 90 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: And maybe it's because of my time in the Marines. 91 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I think about the people who 92 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: wake up and risk their lives and I'm not going 93 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 1: to do the normal hokey thing people do about that, 94 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 1: but I picture this. This is real. Cops. Let's talk 95 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: about cops for a minute. We'll get to the Marines 96 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: and whatnot. Cops across the America today, they woke up 97 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: and on their way to work, whatever shift they're working, 98 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: they kiss their wife, They kiss their husband goodbye, and 99 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: that cop knows, at least in the back of their mind, 100 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 1: that might be the last time he ever sees his wife. 101 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 1: Just by nature of the job. By nature of the job, 102 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 1: cops have to go out and wade through the muck 103 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: of this society. That's not incredible because I think about 104 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 1: my own life, What did I do today, woke up, 105 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: worked out, walked the dog, ate breakfast. I drove to 106 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: a TV studio and I work for our company, the 107 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: first that lets me say whatever I want. I'm talking 108 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 1: into the camera for an hour to you, which I 109 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: enjoy anyway, as you can probably tell after this, I'm goody, 110 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 1: go home, eat pizza, pet my dog. That's a good life. 111 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 1: But there are people out there. They risk it every day. 112 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,159 Speaker 1: And let's talk about Marines. Let's talk about sadly Army, 113 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: not kidding, Navy, Air Force, Let's talk about our military. 114 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: I'll tell you I've witnessed this scene so many times, 115 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: and various times where I've had to leave the country 116 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: for just a couple deployments and whatnot, nothing major. But 117 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: I'd see these husbands because I was in the inventory, 118 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: all male units and kids holding onto their dad saying, 119 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: don't go, daddy. And then you know you're not going 120 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: for a long weekend. Oh you're not good going to 121 00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: golf in Mexico with the fellas. You're gone for six months, 122 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: you're gone for a year. How thankful you? There are 123 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: people in this country still willing to do that, still 124 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: willing to raise their kids by a zoom call it's 125 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: amazing the things people are doing on your behalf in 126 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: my behalf, and we don't thank them enough. We really don't. 127 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you something else. Not to get overly 128 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: political on this show, but we are in a major, major, 129 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: major fight for the soul of this country, for the 130 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: future of what our culture is going to look like. 131 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: And remember, culture is not complicated. They act like it is. 132 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: It's not complicated at all. Culture is simply what's your 133 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: Society incentivizes and disincentivizes. And right now, the people who 134 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: are running this country, people who are running the system, 135 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: as I call it often, they hate this place and 136 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: they're trying to destroy it now not complaining. It makes 137 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: me pause and be thankful for the people out there 138 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: on the right. It's just yourself who have the guts 139 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: to step up and say something, because it's not easy 140 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: for most people to say something because you know what 141 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: comes with it. You know what comes with that, all 142 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: the vitriol and name calling and just nastiness out there. 143 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: People risk their jobs for speaking up and saying the 144 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: right thing. Now, People who are willing to step out 145 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: and swim against the tide when everyone in society is 146 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: saying no and you step up and say no. The 147 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: right answer is yes, and there's no compromise on that. 148 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: And I know what you might be thinking right now, 149 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: because I have these thoughts a lot. I shouldn't, but 150 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: I do. I focus on everyone on the right who 151 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 1: isn't there when the going gets tough. They shrink away 152 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: when that you know, he gets a little too hot. 153 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: Why do I focus on them? The truth is it's 154 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 1: always the few who do most of the fighting. So 155 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 1: think about a friend you have who stands by you, 156 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,359 Speaker 1: who stands for the right things. When you do, be appreciative, 157 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: be thankful for that friend. Think about somebody you read. 158 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: Maybe you read all their articles they write, or listen 159 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: to their show, or watch the show, whatever the case 160 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 1: may be. Think about that person when they're saying things 161 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: that are unpopular at the time, and be thankful. And 162 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: most of all, and I do mean most of all, 163 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: I'm thankful for me. Don't worry. I actually have a 164 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: little thing we're going to be doing on that later. 165 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: It'll be enjoyable. But we have an amazing show for 166 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: you tonight. We have my buddy Buck Sexton. It's always 167 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: a good time when Buck joins the show. Kia Davis 168 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 1: is going to join us next. She's going to talk 169 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: about her Thanksgiving foods, things she's thankful for. She's going 170 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 1: to try to elaborate on why she enjoys road trips. 171 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: What's wrong with you people? We have a great special 172 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: plan for you. Let's all be thankful. We'll be back 173 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 1: joining me now, as she often does. Editor at Large 174 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: with Red State, Kira Davis. Kira, obviously we have a 175 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: lot to talk about tonight with kids and Thanksgiving and 176 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: everything else. But really we're just doing a show about everything. 177 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: We're thankful for, everything we're grateful for. There's enough dark 178 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 1: news out there, certainly enough dark news out there. So 179 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: let's begin with the most important thing. What are you 180 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 1: most thankful for about me? I'm most thankful that I 181 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: don't have to have things giving dinner with you, because 182 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: I feel like like the crankiest Thanksgiving dinner ever. I 183 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: would be talking about my road trips. You would be 184 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: insulting road trips. I would be talking about all the 185 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: fun things that I like to do, and you would 186 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: be talking about how you like to kill fun because 187 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 1: you hate fun. It would be I just want I 188 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 1: just want to I want you to you have the floor, 189 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: you have the flour. I want you to clarify, Grandma, 190 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 1: why do you like road trips? I mean, is it 191 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: the people cutting you off? Is it eight hours in 192 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,719 Speaker 1: between destinations? Is it the gas station food? Please tell 193 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: me the part you love most about road trips. Well, 194 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: I feel like I don't have to justify why I 195 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: love the road trips. My beautiful love road trips. Road 196 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: trips are great to see a lot of the country. 197 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: You get to have spontaneous experiences. I love to pull 198 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 1: over when I see like a historical spot or something 199 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: that's interesting, places you've never seen. Oh my gosh, Jesse, 200 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: were you born a cranky old man? You know? True 201 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: story here, just keeping it brief here for the interview purposes. 202 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: Just with dove hunting with my buddy and his sons 203 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: and my sons. And we would let him drive on 204 00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 1: the way down there, and I had to drive on 205 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: the way back five hours. And I gathered all kids 206 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: before we left on the way back, and I said, 207 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: do you remember all those bathroom breaks you got to 208 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: stop four under? Nice guy? This bathroom you're by right 209 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: now is the last one you're getting. So I suggest 210 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: you go drain it here and guess what, we made 211 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: it all the way back five hours record time. Kira. 212 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: Good for you, Jesse, it sounds like you're a lot 213 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:24,719 Speaker 1: of fun on the road, all right, Kia. Kids and Thanksgiving, 214 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: and also it's this. I know you are a parent 215 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: who loves your kids. I am the same. What do 216 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 1: you teach your kids about Thanksgiving? Well, we usually go 217 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: by what the first Thanksgiving Proclamation from George Washington said, 218 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 1: which is this is establishment, an establishment of a day 219 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: where we collectively, incorporately give thanks to our creator for 220 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 1: the provisions he's given us in this country. So in 221 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 1: my house, Thanksgiving is really centered around what we're grateful for, 222 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: of course with each other, it's also centered around taking 223 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 1: a few moments to just recount our blessings. You know, 224 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: it doesn't every day is a complaining day in America. 225 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: Every day there are grievances that are aired, there are 226 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,319 Speaker 1: people with issues, and for my kids, we always emphasize 227 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: this is the one day where we all sit down 228 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: together and we don't complain. We don't point out all 229 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: of the flaws about each other and our home and 230 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: this country, and we don't talk about the things we 231 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: wish we have had and the things we don't have. 232 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 1: We talk about the things that we do have. We 233 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,839 Speaker 1: talk about the blessings that we do have. Our forefathers 234 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: saw fit to establish an official day where we all 235 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:46,599 Speaker 1: just stopped and took a corporate breath and rested in 236 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: a spirit of thanksgiving to our Creator. I know there 237 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: are a lot of people in this country who might 238 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 1: not believe in a creator, but the principle still stands. 239 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 1: There's value in us as a nation taking a few moments, 240 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: a few hours together one day of the year just 241 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: to say thank you, just to recognize all the way 242 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: things we have. So that's how we focus here in 243 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 1: the Davi's household. Totally agree and piggybacking on that couple 244 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,679 Speaker 1: of things I do with my kids, not that anybody 245 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: needs to copy me. As the parents, I try to 246 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,319 Speaker 1: every night go pray with my boys, and I make 247 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: them before we pray, tell me one thing they're thankful for, 248 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 1: big or small, and then we thank God for it 249 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: when we pray and on Thanksgiving. My mother, speaking of 250 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: what Kia does, used to do this thing. I hated 251 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: it as a kid, and now I appreciate it a lot. 252 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: Where she would write every letter of the alphabet on 253 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: a piece of paper and she drop it all in 254 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: a hat and she would hand it around, and you 255 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: got a letter, and she would just keep handing it around. 256 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: And every time you got a letter, whatever that letter was, 257 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 1: you had to say something you were thankful for that 258 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: started with that, and that was something. We did it everything, 259 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: and I hated it. And every time she pulled it out, 260 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: I rolled my eyes and, ah, this is so stupid, mom. 261 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: And now I'm absolutely making my kids do it this year. Kia, 262 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: well that my kids hate it when we do the 263 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: whole like go around the table and say what you're 264 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: thankful for, Like everyone rolls their eyes. We all did it. 265 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: But this is the whole thing about establishing tradition. This 266 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 1: is the whole thing we talk all year long, Jesse, 267 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: you and I talk about how there are people who 268 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 1: want to do away with the traditions of American society, 269 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: do away with the traditional foundations. We don't need them anymore, 270 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: they aren't relevant anymore. But this is how you establish thankfulness. 271 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: This is how you establish a generation of people who 272 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: appreciate what they have. You don't let them decide what 273 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: you're You know what you're going to be thankful for 274 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: and when you don't let them decide that some traditions 275 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: and some ways of doing things are are wrong, they 276 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: don't know any better. Kids are idiots, So it's up 277 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: to us to keep establishing tradition, because what happens is 278 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: we end up with people like you, Jesse, sure, people 279 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: who are rook trips, but also people like you who 280 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: can look back and say, Okay, yeah, I was annoyed 281 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: by my mom, But what it did was it really 282 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 1: instilled a sense of normality for me around the concept 283 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: of thanksgiving. Kara, I'm not or the impression parents hate 284 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: their kids. I know there are some evil parents out there, obviously, 285 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: which is terrible, but it's my general assumption that even 286 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 1: Communists love their own children, which is unbelievable. But why 287 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: do you think parents try to pass misery down to 288 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: their kids instead of being grateful or feeling blessed. It 289 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: almost seems like sometimes it's intentional, doesn't it. Well, it does. 290 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: I would say part of this is the we might 291 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: call it socialism. I call it the spirit of envy, 292 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: which has sort of permeated American life these days. I 293 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 1: think there's always a temptation for people to look around 294 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: and say, hey, I don't have as much as that 295 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: other person, and there has to be an explanation for it. 296 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: That's not any problem with me, because I don't want 297 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 1: to have to be the one responsible for my own prosperity. 298 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 1: I think we are would have driven to blame other 299 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 1: people for not having all the things we want. That's 300 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: human nature, and I think the story of America is 301 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: us start of fighting against our worst nature to come 302 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 1: closer and closer to what we think the Creator had 303 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: in store for us. And that's why we have days 304 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 1: like Thanksgiving where we do take the time to recognize 305 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 1: that there is a creator who made all this and 306 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,479 Speaker 1: provided all this for us. So I think part of it. 307 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 1: I'm with you, Jesse. I don't think there are parents 308 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,120 Speaker 1: out there like I hate my kids, I want them 309 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 1: to be miserable. I think there are parents out there 310 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: who feel bad about the things they don't have, who 311 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: wish they had more, who might feel bitterness that someone 312 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: else has more and they haven't quite grasped the real 313 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: true tradition of America, which is the fact that this 314 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: country doesn't really owe us opportunity, but our country in 315 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 1: and of itself is the opportunity, Kira. I'm positive the 316 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 1: answer to this question is going to be so disappointing. 317 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: I just I know it for a fact. But what 318 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,720 Speaker 1: are the Thanksgiving Day foods eaten in the David's household. 319 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,719 Speaker 1: My husband likes to have two types of meat, so 320 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 1: we usually have traditional turkey and then this year he 321 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 1: got a ham. Sometimes it's a lamb. We have mac 322 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 1: and cheese because we're black and black people don't have 323 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 1: any major family meal without mac and cheese. Hold on, 324 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 1: hold on, hold on, hold on, pos real quick, pos 325 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: real quick. Please tell me you have some homemade mac 326 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 1: and cheese recipe that you can text me when this 327 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 1: is done. I don't I do. It's not really something 328 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:41,920 Speaker 1: that's written down though, Jesse. It's kind of a spirit. 329 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 1: Oh great, oh great, well your spirit really helps me 330 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: eat it. Anyway, continue, I'm sorry. I'll see what I 331 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 1: can do for you. But yeah, that and I am 332 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: typically not the cook. I'm not a great cook. Nothing 333 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 1: I've ever really learned to do. My husband's really the 334 00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 1: cook in the house. I'll tell you one thing, Jesse, 335 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,959 Speaker 1: one tradition that he has started in the last decade 336 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: that I really don't like. With our Thanksgiving table is 337 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: Brussels sprouts, like oh I did, and listen. You can 338 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 1: put almost anything in bake and grease and I will 339 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 1: eat it. But even the Brussels sprouts fried in bacon grease, 340 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 1: like I'm having to tell myself stories about what I'm 341 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: eating so I can get it down. I'm not a 342 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 1: fan of the Brussels brout, but twenty two years of marriage, 343 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: I will never you have to compromise. I'll never understand it. 344 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 1: I'll never say it. The wife did the same thing 345 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: for me. It's on all the fancy celebrity like restaurant things. 346 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: I'll try our special Brussels sprouts. It's on the And 347 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: the wife tried to do the same thing with bake 348 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 1: and grease, and she's putting garlic and butter and everything else, 349 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:48,120 Speaker 1: and they were still garbage. Hira Davis, have a happy Thanksgiving. Yeah, 350 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 1: well that's our Thanksgiving table.

We're doing a big 358 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving special about a bunch of stuff we're thankful for 359 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 1: in America and everything else. We're gonna get into foods 360 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: and all that, but I think it would be appropriate 361 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: for you to lead with everything you're thankful for about me. Well, 362 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: first of all, it's just good to know that it's 363 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: possible to go through life as an actual giant, and 364 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 1: that America has become so accepting of nine foot tall 365 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 1: individuals that you know, there was a time Jesse were 366 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 1: a nine four, you know, wasn't going to be invited 367 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 1: to the birthday party, wasn't allowed on the commercial jet. 368 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: But you have broken through that barrier. And I just 369 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: feel like, granted, you have to order those special shoes 370 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,679 Speaker 1: because it'll make them for human beings in your size, 371 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: but you know, there's there's there's hope out there for everybody. 372 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 1: That's all you know. One that's not nice too. If 373 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: this is no joke, you brought it up. I swear 374 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: we did. I swear we didn't set this up beforehand. 375 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: When I buy shoes, because everyone buy shoes online now right, 376 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 1: No one goes into an actual store. When I buy shoes, 377 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 1: I have to go to a website where I can 378 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 1: specifically select my shoe size first, because it eliminates like 379 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 1: ninety percent of the shoe options out there. They don't 380 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: even make them in my size. Same thing with pants. 381 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 1: People don't know the burden of being six to eight. 382 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 1: But I mean, I gotta tell you, Jesse, since we're 383 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: talking about this, I am thankful for the internet as 384 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 1: well because I have to special order. And I'm not 385 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 1: even sure I should admit this on TV, but you 386 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: know what, it's thanksgiving them, thankful for it. True store worry. 387 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: I have to special order baseball hats because your height 388 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 1: is like what the circumference of my cranium is, which 389 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,199 Speaker 1: is freakishly huge. So I have to go to a 390 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 1: specialty baseball hat site. I'm not even kidding. It's called 391 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: like vamoose hats or something and get a hat that's 392 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: picking up for my giant noggin. This is real. That sucks. 393 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: Maybe it's the lettuce, but you can't get rid of 394 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: that much here. All right, all right, let's focus here America. 395 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 1: I was going over in the very beginning of the 396 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: show Buck, just things like, I mean, water. We don't 397 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: realize how great, how blessed we are to have endless 398 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 1: supplies of clean drinking water right close to us. What 399 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 1: are you thankful for about America? Oh? Man, this place 400 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: is amazing, right. And one way to keep in mind 401 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 1: how awesome it is is, you know, I like to 402 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: watch a lot of movies, as my brothers say, where 403 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:58,639 Speaker 1: there are dudes with beards and swords, drinking need and 404 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 1: you know, getting for warfare. Like that's kind of my genre. 405 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: And I got to say I would rather be a 406 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 1: run of the mill American today than be any one 407 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: of those guys, you know, hundreds of years ago, right. 408 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 1: I mean, we live in such abundance. Our biggest problems 409 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: are how soft and pasty we get. I mean, particularly 410 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: you know, and uh, you know, it's it's just amazing 411 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: and and you know we we live in such a 412 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:29,199 Speaker 1: time of abundance and such a time of of you know, 413 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 1: tremendous excess that it's easy for it really gets full. 414 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:35,119 Speaker 1: I think a lot of the problems of America or 415 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: a Jesse And in a weird way, this is like political, 416 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 1: but it also is we've ceased to be thankful for 417 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,439 Speaker 1: the more basic things because everything is so awesome that 418 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: people keep coming up with make belief problems. You know what, 419 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 1: You're one hundred percent right on this. I think you 420 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 1: and I've had this conversation privately before you When you 421 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: look at we're not going to go into too much politics. 422 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 1: But the person out there who doesn't know what gender 423 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: is and he's become an active there's some one of 424 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: these whack jobs out there. Really, what you're looking at 425 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 1: is somebody who's simply bored. You don't see any of 426 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 1: those people in Zimbabwe walking down to the river trying 427 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: to get clean drinking water. For some reason. They never 428 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,439 Speaker 1: have any of those people. But here in America you 429 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 1: have time to be an absolute nutter because we have 430 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 1: it so good. Yeah, people need purpose. This is a 431 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: real thing that's always been true throughout history for a 432 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 1: lot of people. A large part of that, and I 433 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: mean greater purpose, A large part of that was driven 434 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 1: by religion, a belief in God and a connection to 435 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: the afterlife and the why we're here on earth questions 436 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 1: and now in modern society, and I think people were 437 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: closer to that too, because like you know it cut 438 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 1: yourself shaving, you get a staff infection. A few hundred 439 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,120 Speaker 1: years ago, even one hundred fifty years ago, your toast right, 440 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: So people had much more of a who knows what's 441 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: going to happen attitude, and so they were closer and 442 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 1: had this other sense of why they were here and 443 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:53,439 Speaker 1: what the purpose of it was. It's true all over 444 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,959 Speaker 1: the world in different ways. And now we're just like, 445 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, am I going to you know, just 446 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 1: cover everything in you know, hazel nut nutella and get 447 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 1: so fat that I can barely move. Like we have 448 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: a different I mean, this is my dream. Obviously, we 449 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 1: have a very different approach to things. And so that's 450 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: why you get you know, climate change and the transgender 451 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,880 Speaker 1: rights agenda and all these issues that people make into 452 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 1: these tremendously important things that they really have in case 453 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: there is no connections. Who don't really even believe in 454 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 1: a lot of the time, but they're just looking to 455 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: be something. They're looking to have some reason. So I'm 456 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 1: thankful that America is so amazing that people have to 457 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 1: come up not only with problems, but make believe reasons 458 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:39,919 Speaker 1: for why we exist. Buck. Speaking of food, you have 459 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 1: me thinking about the hazel nut nutella and stuff like that. 460 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: Speaking of food, your favorite Thanksgiving foods now, I understand 461 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 1: you have a bit of a different diet. What's the 462 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Thanksgiving Day spread? So I appreciate you being 463 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: so gentle around what sounds like my COMI dietary restriction 464 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: of no blue ten because this is no and in 465 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: places like California and New York as something that the 466 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 1: elites are like, I didn't want gluten and I want 467 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: non GMO. I unfortunately have a rare genetic condition called 468 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:13,959 Speaker 1: Ciliac disease where you actually cannot eat gluten, which is 469 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: in wheat, barley, spelt, rye, and a few other things. 470 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 1: And that means that I have to have my whole family. 471 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: And I'll say, they're very nice about this. They just 472 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,719 Speaker 1: use gluten substitute. So all the meats, all the potatoes, 473 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 1: all the rice, all all the veggies good to go. 474 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 1: The only thing that the Sextons have to do special 475 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: order or special make, i should say, is stuffing. And 476 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: this is where it gets sad, folks. Gluten free stuffing 477 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 1: not as good as real stuffing. It's one of the 478 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 1: few things that that's true about. So that's my that's 479 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 1: the cross that I must bear, so to speak. On 480 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,360 Speaker 1: this one, Jesse, I can't have real men. I can't 481 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 1: have real American stuffing. Buck. I do have to ask, though, 482 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: because you're just glossed right over this, please tell me 483 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 1: you guys don't eat turkey for Thanksgiving? You, I mean, 484 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,439 Speaker 1: no one likes turkey, but you've never been in a 485 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 1: restaurant and ordered turkey. Look, I'm part of the chicken 486 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 1: is better than turkey train. I mean I believe that. 487 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 1: But you know, there is this whole thing, Jesse, we 488 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: like to think of in this country is tradition. And 489 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: if you remember, there were some pilgrims with some blunderbusses 490 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 1: with dak when and they were shooting a turkey and 491 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 1: it was going gobble gobble till it wasn't. And that 492 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,160 Speaker 1: is what the folks were eating. So I will say, 493 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: if a turkey is very expertly prepared, and my mother, 494 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: the matriarch of the Sexton family, does a very good turkey, 495 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: that said secretly, her roast chicken is better, just because 496 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 1: a really good roast chicken, I think is better than 497 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: a good rost turkey. So that's where we are. Say 498 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: it's a fact, with all due respect to missus Sexton 499 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,679 Speaker 1: and her turkey, which I'm sure is wonderful. If I 500 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: have to make it perfectly to have it be edible, 501 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: then it ain't good. But let's set that aside. For 502 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 1: what is your side that you put? I mean, I 503 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 1: mentioned the tella before. Do you have a side that 504 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: ends up kind of all over thet of the food 505 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: because it's so good? Because I got one in mind. 506 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,399 Speaker 1: I do actually as a matter of fact, that Kelly's 507 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: we don't do anything traditional for Thanksgiving. I refuse to 508 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:16,119 Speaker 1: in any way be a slave to any tradition. Buck told. 509 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: I go out and I buy the best cut you 510 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 1: can find. We usually about a four or five pound 511 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: beef tenderloin. I then will marinate it beginning Tuesday morning. 512 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 1: I will marinate it for forty eight seventy two hours 513 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,160 Speaker 1: before Thanksgiving, and with that we're going to have fed 514 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 1: acchini alfredo and Barry cobbler, homemade Barry cobbler with homemade 515 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 1: vanilla ice cream on it, and Red Lobster's cheddar Bay biscuits, 516 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: which you can buy in the grocery store Now that's 517 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: how you do Thanksgiving, Buck, that sounds quite delicious. I 518 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: will tell you that a member of a section family. 519 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: My own sister is on the Jesse Kelly Red Lobster 520 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 1: Biscuits train as well. Huge fan, huge fan of the 521 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: red lobster biscuits. They do appear sometimes at only gatherings. 522 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 1: Unfortunately they are not gluten free. But I was gonna 523 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 1: say candied yams or like the sweet potatoes with the 524 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 1: h with the stay pop marshmallow stuff on top. You know, 525 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 1: that is mennefique, And that is what ends up for me, 526 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 1: just kind of like the all purpose some people use 527 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 1: the gravy for everything. I just end up kind of 528 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 1: smushing the sweet potatoes all over the place. Yeah, that works, 529 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: that works. I used the marinade for my tenderland, but 530 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 1: that was why I didn't name it to answer your question. 531 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: Look at me, But that was the answer to question. Alright, 532 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 1: I look at this fancy mister. I like red lobsters 533 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 1: marinating his like waggy a five here, like five hundred 534 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: dollars an ounce or whatever. I'll Thanksgiving. Let's not make 535 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 1: it a thing. It's not all right, Buck, Why do 536 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 1: you think the cows Buck before they be thought they 537 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: actually trying mistakes? Is that how this goes? And what 538 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 1: we're moving on? Why are you thankful for the first Why? 539 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 1: Why should people become supporters of the first book? Oh man, 540 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: this is this is one of the very few places 541 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 1: where you've got people who just say exactly what's on 542 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: their mind. Yeah, we're conservatives, obviously, but we let it rip. 543 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: And we're here because we love speaking the truth to 544 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 1: the people. We never get told what to say or 545 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 1: how to say it, and so if people that matters. 546 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: In an era where I feel like everyone just cares 547 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: up being on the right side instead of being right, 548 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 1: it's very important to have places like this. So I'm 549 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: very thankful for the first, even for you, you tall, 550 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: self loving son of a gun, Buck Sex. Then everybody, 551 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 1: thank you, Buck. I appreciate it.

I told you it was gonna be 556 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 1: a great show, a good show, a show about thanksgiving, 557 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 1: a show about counting your blessings and all the things 558 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 1: you're thankful for. And as you know, I've been asking 559 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: everybody what do you thankful for? What do you love? 560 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: And I don't think it would be right to do 561 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 1: an entire show and only talk about this person or 562 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 1: that person or this subject without me coming up here 563 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: and saying some things I'm thankful for. Some things from 564 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 1: the heart I'm thankful for, because you know, I don't 565 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: get sentimental much, right, It's just not who I am. 566 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: They come across a little bit gruff sometimes I'm not 567 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: a sentimental person, So bear with me. Let's just talk 568 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:44,479 Speaker 1: about some things I'm thankful for. First thing i'm thankful 569 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: for as my humility. I really think, for the most part, 570 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 1: my humility tends to shine through day after day after day. 571 00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 1: As you can see there, I'm thankful for I mean 572 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 1: more than just my own humility, because that's focusing on me, 573 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: and we don't need to only focus on me. More 574 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 1: than my own humility. I'm thankful for my family. I 575 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 1: think about the times I've treasured with them, and as 576 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: you can see, I've taken pictures with them. I'm thankful 577 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 1: for having certain special abilities other people don't necessarily am. 578 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: You see, I understand that I've been given two hands 579 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: and I've been given a mind that works differently. So 580 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 1: when I can build a shed with my bare hands, 581 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: that's something, honestly, I'm grateful for. I think it's wonderful 582 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 1: and it's not just me. I don't want to act 583 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 1: like it's just about me. I'm grateful for the memes 584 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 1: you guys send me, especially the ones that include pictures 585 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: of me, even ones that insult my freakishly large height. 586 00:32:55,800 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 1: I am thankful for companies that sell products made in 587 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 1: the USA, especially products with such beautiful designs on them, 588 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: just absolutely beautiful. Oh you can go to the first 589 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 1: tv dot com slash store if you'd like any of those. 590 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: I'm grateful for those. And most of all, maybe maybe 591 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: more than anything else in the world, I am grateful 592 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 1: for Kamala Harris, Vice President Dome and the example she 593 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 1: has set for women everywhere. Just think how incredible it 594 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 1: is that you have this young girl and she has 595 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 1: this real, real desire to get into politics, she can 596 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 1: feel it on her knees, and she has just decided 597 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 1: that she will do absolutely anything to make it happen, 598 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 1: and so she chooses to just dive in there. Then 599 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 1: suck it up and make it happen. And look, it 600 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: doesn't always work out. Sometimes when you die. I've in 601 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 1: like that, especially when it's that deep. Sometimes it doesn't work. 602 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:08,719 Speaker 1: Sometimes it doesn't work. But sometimes at the back end 603 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 1: of all that, sometimes all that hard effort, sometimes it 604 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:20,279 Speaker 1: pays off. Sometimes you may begin in the dumps, you 605 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 1: may begin on your knees. Sometimes you end on the 606 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: top of a mountain. And I think it is a 607 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 1: true rags to riches story. I salute Kamala Harris. I 608 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 1: salute her as being a model to women everywhere of 609 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:37,280 Speaker 1: how they can truly get ahead. All right, coming up next. 610 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: You've heard me dog on turkey a lot. I've been 611 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 1: ripping on it. I admit that I'd realize that's a 612 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 1: controversial take. I've had more emails than I can count 613 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:47,439 Speaker 1: in the pats a couple of days. Oh you haven't 614 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,840 Speaker 1: had my Grandma's turkey, Jesse my cage and injected turkey 615 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: A deep project. I understand. I've been presenting a lot 616 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 1: of problems. What I'm going to present next is a solution. 617 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: I realized I made a bunch of hay when I 618 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 1: started blasting away at turkey I've been pretty hard on 619 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:24,799 Speaker 1: turkey recently, and I'm not going to resend that. I'm 620 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,320 Speaker 1: not taking it back at all. I said what I said. 621 00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 1: I don't like it. I don't think it's special. You've 622 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,919 Speaker 1: never once gone into a restaurant and ordered it, So 623 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,799 Speaker 1: you should have something special for Thanksgiving. But but I 624 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 1: don't want to be this guy who only presents problems. 625 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: You know people like this in your life. Undoubtedly there's 626 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 1: somebody who's always I don't like the color of your drapes. Oh, okay, 627 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 1: well what color should I should I put up there? Oh? 628 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's not my problem. I don't I 629 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 1: don't want to be that guy. If I'm presenting problems, 630 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 1: I want to present illusions with them. So Thanksgiving as 631 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 1: a special day, No, it's a special day, very special day. 632 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 1: Shouldn't you have some special food with it? And what 633 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:15,759 Speaker 1: in the world would be more special? Think outside of 634 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,239 Speaker 1: the box. Here, got a bunch of family coming over. 635 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 1: What would be more surprising, special and memorable than making 636 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 1: the greatest cheeseburgers in the world. Step one, but the 637 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 1: cargo down to the grocery store. You need to go 638 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 1: to the burger aisle, obviously. Now, I don't want to 639 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 1: hear about your health food crap. I'm trying to I'm 640 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,359 Speaker 1: trying to lose weight, Jesse. I don't care. I don't care. 641 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:48,360 Speaker 1: You need to get the fattiest burger you can Normally 642 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 1: that's going to be eighty twenty in a lot of 643 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 1: grocery stores. Here at some of the ones we have 644 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,040 Speaker 1: in Texas, they actually have seventy three twenty seven. Always 645 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,680 Speaker 1: the route to go. I will explain in a little 646 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: while why that matters. Get the fattiest burger you can 647 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 1: possibly find. Okay, health food is for the next day. 648 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:07,319 Speaker 1: We're making Jesse Kelly burgers here.

Yes, 653 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 1: American cheese is the best way to make a burger. 654 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 1: It gets melty, it gets creamy. It's the best way 655 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 1: to do it. Save your snooty What about Havardi.

I see people all the 660 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 1: time walking by grabbing buns and they just look for 661 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 1: what they're looking for, hot dogger, hamburger, and they grab 662 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 1: the pack and walk away. You must finger the buns. 663 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 1: You must feel each in every pack to make sure 664 00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,840 Speaker 1: you're getting the superior bun. The bun is not just 665 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,799 Speaker 1: some vehicle to get the burger into your mouth. It 666 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:06,320 Speaker 1: is a critical part of the burger. Get the right bones, 667 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 1: my word, man, have some pride. Next, you're gonna go 668 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: over to the seasonings section. You're gonna get garlic powder, 669 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 1: not salt. Not salt garlic powder. You're gonna get whatever, 670 00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: actually generic seasoning you like. I mean, pick your generic 671 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 1: season It doesn't matter that much. If you prefer one, 672 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 1: get one. And then for the star of the show, 673 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 1: you're gonna walk to the hot sauce section of your 674 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:33,280 Speaker 1: grocery store and you're going to get Chipotle Tabasco sauce. 675 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 1: Notice I said Chipotle Tabasco sauce. Did you hear me say? Oh, 676 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,399 Speaker 1: whatever hot sauce you like or this Chipotle. Whatever did 677 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 1: I say that? No, I said Chipotle Tabasco sauce. Now 678 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 1: you're going home. Now you're gonna make your burger patties. 679 00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:50,840 Speaker 1: Your burger patties are going to be made by dumping 680 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 1: all the burger and whatever container you like. And then 681 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:56,479 Speaker 1: you're gonna grab your garlic powder and you're gonna dust 682 00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: the top of it with there. Not too much, not 683 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 1: too little. You're gonna take your gar your your general seasoning. 684 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 1: Do not overuse it. It's not the star of the show. 685 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 1: Do not overuse it. You can make these burgers too salty. 686 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 1: You can make these burgers too salty. Again, learn from 687 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,480 Speaker 1: my mistakes. But a generous amount on there, but not 688 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 1: too much. Then the Chipotla Tabasco sauce. Drown it in 689 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 1: Chipotla Tabasco sauce. Poor. What you think has to be 690 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 1: way too much Tchibotla Tabasco sauce, and then look at 691 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 1: it and then say, Okay, I'm gonna pour even more 692 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,640 Speaker 1: on there, and pour even more on there. Believe me 693 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 1: when I tell you, if you're intimidated by the heat, 694 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: don't be. Most of that heat will cook off. Most 695 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:41,439 Speaker 1: of that heat will cook off. You want to use 696 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,359 Speaker 1: too much. I'll use half a bottle for a pound 697 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 1: of burger. It's that much I drown it in the stuff. 698 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 1: Now you form your burgers. Burgers are not supposed to 699 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:56,680 Speaker 1: be fat. Burgers are supposed to be thin. Make a 700 00:39:56,760 --> 00:40:01,720 Speaker 1: thin patty, it could be wide. That's fine. A thin patty, 701 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 1: it's what you're going for. Oh but Josh, you like 702 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 1: more meat, that's fine. Make a double cheeseburger. You can 703 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,839 Speaker 1: make a double. That's fine. A good burger is a 704 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 1: thin burger, not a thick burger. Now, finally, where you 705 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 1: cooking these? I want you to go outside. I want 706 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 1: you to look at your grill, and I want you 707 00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:20,480 Speaker 1: to look at a good hard and then I want 708 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 1: you to say, not today, grill. You cook my burgers 709 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,399 Speaker 1: on a flat top. If you have a flat top 710 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,319 Speaker 1: of some kind you can put on your grill, that's fine. 711 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 1: Cast iron pan or something like that. If you want 712 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,400 Speaker 1: to just use a frying pan in the house, that's fine. 713 00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 1: You make my burgers one at a time, because each 714 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:37,960 Speaker 1: one deserves its own personal attention. You don't mass produce 715 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 1: my burgers. One at a time. You cook them on 716 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 1: a flat top. You make sure. They cook there and 717 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:48,080 Speaker 1: their own fat, sizzle till it's ready. Flip the second 718 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 1: you flip it, put the cheese on. Melt the cheese 719 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 1: on your burger. We are not animals here. When you're 720 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: done with that, remove the burger patty, place it on 721 00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 1: your bun. You don't need a single condiment for my burger, 722 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 1: believe me, the ketchup, mustard, mayo. Don't you dare assault 723 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,840 Speaker 1: my burger with lettuce and tomato. You can put condiments 724 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:07,839 Speaker 1: on it if you want to, but it's not necessary. 725 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:12,760 Speaker 1: Burger cheese, bum enjoy the greatest burgers on the planet. 726 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 1: You're welcome.
