The speakers discuss their opinions on what to eat for Christmas and the duration of the holiday. They debate whether Christmas should have its own unique meal separate from Thanksgiving. They also discuss the decline of Chick-fil-A's popularity and the significance of birthdays. The speakers have different views on how long birthdays should be celebrated. The conversation is casual and light-hearted. You are now tuned in to the most ignorant podcast in America, this is the Unemployment Line. I am the D.O. K. I'm sitting here with my main man Larry P. What you got to say my man? So, at this point we've had Thanksgiving, Christmas is coming, and I'm still a firm believer of this, I'll always be a firm believer of this, we've got to stop eating the same thing twice. Oh, you talking about between Christmas and Thanksgiving? Yeah, we've got to stop eating the same thing twice, we've got to stop. I think Thanksgiving, I think what we have for Thanksgiving. We don't need two turkeys. That's Thanksgiving food. I think when Christmas time comes, hey let's do a seafood bowl, let's do an Italian spread. Nah, do a prime rib. Let's do some tacos. Do like a rib. Nah, don't do tacos. You can do tacos, you can do chicken steak, mix it up man, but make Christmas more fun. We're not doing tacos. But at least not any dine brothers. No, no, we're not doing taco Tuesday on Christmas. Nah, you got to do tacos. You got to do a succulent duck, or a rib roast with a little sauce. You still trying to do that crazy stuff, because they still going to put like mac and cheese and all that stuff. But you got to have mac and cheese. I'm trying to get away from all the... Why you have to have mac and cheese? Because I just ate it. I ate it a month ago. Okay. I'm trying to get away from... How often do you go to Chick-fil-A? I mean, not often to be completely honest, because Chick-fil-A be getting too comfortable and I don't like that. Chick-fil-A? What? They've been getting too comfortable man. Like you know, they've been on top for so long that like every now and again they may forget my sauce. And that ain't Chick-fil-A I know. I'm going to tell you this. I agree with you. First of all, I'm a person who was initially very anti-Chick-fil-A, because I feel like Chick-fil-A had a very limited menu. Chick-fil-A for years, you know how like McDonald's got like a number one all the way to like 16? Chick-fil-A only had like a one through four and they thought there was hot stuff because of that. It was like you're going to get a number one, which is a chicken sandwich, but you're going to get chicken strips, or you're going to get a grilled chicken sandwich, or you're going to get a salad. And those are your options for years. Being too comfortable. And now they feel like, you know what? You know what? You don't need to have a blessed day. A lot of Chick-fil-A workers are starting to leave Chick-fil-A and work at other places because I went to McDonald's one time and I told the woman, you know, thank you for taking my order. She said, my pleasure. And I said, that training ain't even McDonald's training. That's Chick-fil-A training. So she used to work at Chick-fil-A and either she got fired or she quit Chick-fil-A. And she went on to somewhere else. And she went to McDonald's of all places. So I'm just saying, man. Chick-fil-A, their run is ended. You can't get a hill for long enough until everybody catches up. And I think the competition is catching up. But let's go back to what the original topic was, which was what do you eat on Christmas? You don't eat the same thing you eat for Thanksgiving. I want to start here. What time does Christmas end? The 26th? No, what time does Christmas end? Like, on Christmas Day? Yeah. Oh, Christmas is all day, buddy. See, I don't believe that. No, Christmas is. Where does Christmas, on your holiday, I do a holiday power ranking oftentimes on my social media where I discuss where holidays rank for me personally. On my last power ranking, Christmas is in the bottom ten. Christmas is never in my top five. Oh, no, Christmas is not in the top five, but Christmas is all day, though. I don't feel like Christmas is all day. Christmas is all day. And I'm going to tell you why Christmas is all day. Christmas. Oh, go ahead. I'll let you answer. Especially when you have kids. If you got kids, Christmas is all day. And you're talking about someone who got kids. Because what you have to understand is you bought your kids gifts so did everybody else. So, when I was growing up, it was, hey, we're going to open these gifts right here under the tree in the morning time. Then, you know, say, y'all going to play with y'all gifts. We're going to get our clothes together, get everything. And, like, we usually go to auntie's house or grandma's house. That's where the food is. And whoever, everybody else, like aunties and uncles and grandparents, you bring all the presents that you have for all the rest of the grandkids and nieces and nephews. So, we open up what we had, what mama or daddy bought for us at the house. Then we go to the dinner and we get more presents there. That's an all day thing. That's an all day event. Because we got to eat, get more presents, eat again, then go home. See, I differ from you. See, this is why Thanksgiving ranks so much higher than Christmas in the holiday rankings. Because, for me, Christmas is only a two-hour holiday. So, you got about an hour of opening gifts. If you're that fortunate. Technically, Thanksgiving is only two hours as well. No, no, no, no, no, no. Because Thanksgiving is three things. Food, family, and football. Football is on all day. Christmas is food, family, presents, basketball. Christmas is presents. That's it. That's it. That's the only thing that matters on Christmas. Well, then why are you eating the same thing that you eat Thanksgiving? Because that's a misconception in the black community. You don't need to eat that stuff. That's why I'm telling people to change it. I think you do need to have a Christmas dinner. Christmas dinner? It don't need to be a turkey. Christmas goes to the end. Nobody should be frying a turkey on Christmas. Nobody should be frying a turkey, but there should be a Christmas dinner. If you got a Christmas dinner, that means Christmas has made it to the end of the day. You eat dinner every day, though. You do eat dinner every day, but you don't eat a Christmas dinner. I don't think. I don't believe in Christmas dinner. A Christmas dinner is a special dinner. That's like a soul food Sunday. There's nothing special about a Christmas dinner. It's dinner. It should be special. It's Christmas. Whatever lima beans you would normally do on Sunday, do that. How many times of the year do you have an event outside of Thanksgiving that you have another event where it brings family together? Every year. Nobody has an Easter dinner. Nobody cares about Easter. Y'all don't have Easter dinner? My family does back home, but I ain't thinking about no Easter dinner. He roasts, and he's gone. And once he roasts, then y'all need to bake a ham. Listen, I'm going to tell you one thing. Why are we cooking when Jesus couldn't even hold the food? Because of the Last Supper. See, when you think about it, Jesus, before he was crucified, they had a feast. It was a full smorgasbord of food out there on the table. They had ham. They had other poultry. They had fruit, sides, charcuterie. Jesus was over there trying to eat the sandwich, and then it just fell through his hand. Well, Jesus wasn't really eating. He was trying to talk to them. It fell through his hand. It fell through his hand. He was over there trying to explain to them, like, hey, one of y'all are going to betray me. Hint, hint, hint, as he was pointing his tongue at Jesus. So you're telling me the Last Supper, what you're trying to tell me is the Last Supper was an intervention? No, it was an announcement. Hey, I'll just let y'all know, man. I brought y'all here today, but, you know, that's like some Suge Knight-type joint. Like, hey, I'm going to bring y'all here, but I feel like one of y'all, one of y'all turning on me. Suge Knight did the same thing, but he would, you know, mush the person's head in the food. See, my thing is he was a little aggressive because, I mean, Jesus got there, and he was just kind of like, I already know what y'all doing. I already know, and it ain't all y'all. It ain't all y'all. It's just one of y'all. I don't want to point no elbows, but he right here, I already know what's coming. But, you know, y'all go ahead and eat y'all little food because one thing about me, I'm going to be back. I'm going to tell you one thing. Jesus did not eat the same things for Thanksgiving that he had for Christmas. No, of course not, but I don't think you should eat the same thing for Christmas that you eat for Thanksgiving. I think Thanksgiving and Christmas are very different holidays, but I do think you should eat a good meal for Christmas. Ain't that supposed to be Jesus' birthday, too? That's a whole day thing. Your birthday? Well, let's start here. Let's start here. Should your birthday be a whole day thing? Yeah. At what point should you kind of ease off of, it's my birthday? A week after your birthday. So you feel like your birthday is a week-long celebration? It used to be a month long for me a bit, though. So you ease back to a week? Yeah, I'm about a week. This year, my birthday was on Tuesday. I started turning up the Thursday before. So here's my question. I'm kind of still going strong. How much should the people around you care about your birthday? As much as they want to. I mean, it depends on what they got planned. Honestly, for my birthday this year, man, I was celebrating it like two weeks before. I went down to Orlando, and they had a little shindig down there for me for that weekend. Then I came back, and then two weeks later, my birthday hit. And then that fell on a Tuesday, but we couldn't do nothing until that Saturday. So the celebration was on that Saturday. So look, brother, it's all what people got planned. My issue is, for me, I celebrate my birthday from the first until the end of the month. As soon as you hit the month, it's my birthday to me. But that's not my expectation of everyone else. Christmas is all they think. I feel like Christmas is two hours. Once the kids have opened their toys, and they're playing with them, realistically, I mean, what are we doing here? We're not about to be sitting around still roasting chestnuts over an open fire. You enjoying the presents at this point? You enjoy, I think you enjoy the family more than you enjoy the presents. Because here's the truth about Christmas, parents. You can buy your kid 20 gifts. And here's the breakdown of those 20 gifts. Eight of them was probably close. Outfits, shirts, and slacks. And then you're going to have a few miscellaneous toys. And there's going to be one or two gifts that the kids are really like, oh, that's what I was excited about. It could be a bike. It could be a video game. It could be a ride on. It could be, like, it's going to be something. And that's all they're going to play with. But you take that bike, and you got to go outside. And they got to ride the bike. And you got to ride the bike with them. And you got to go outside with them. And you got to do all that stuff. But you don't have to do that all day. You don't have to do it all day. But you do it for a portion. They open the gifts for two hours. And then, boom, after that, it's like, Daddy, can I go outside and ride the bike? So, boy, that's another, what, 30 minutes to an hour of them being outside. Then it's like, all right, y'all, come on back inside. It's like, okay, cool, I'm going to go play with my toys inside. And you probably get your little quick little relaxing moment where you get to chill for a minute while they're sitting there trying to put the batteries in their new toys and whatnot and play their new games. Let's stop right there. I want to talk about the importance of purchasing batteries. Y'all got to stop being cheap with your batteries. Please stop buying these Dollar Tree brand, Dollar General brand batteries for your children. Do you need to be cheap with the batteries or be cheap with the presents? No, no, no. That's what I'm saying. Don't be cheap with the presents. Be cheap with the, um, uh, don't be cheap with the presents or the batteries. Get good batteries. You just spent all the money on the presents. I ain't got that money for them batteries, too. It's going to be a waste of your money if you don't get good batteries. If you don't get Duracell, Energizer, Lithium. What if you do get Duracell, Energizer, Lithium, and they play with it? They don't play with it to the longevity. I would rather the kid play with the toy until the battery runs out than the kid play with the toy and the batteries that's juice. See, you got to know your kids. Stop buying your kids stuff that they don't want. See, this is the beauty of the, um... The cheap batteries is a prerequisite to see if they actually enjoy it. No. If they want to play with it after the batteries run out, then it's like, alright, maybe I'll go get y'all the Energizer, Lithium. See, when I was a youth, we had the Toys R Us catalog. We used to have the Toys R Us catalog and we used to have the East Bay Shoe Book and we would go through these things and we would just circle the things that we wanted. You got to put these things in front of your kids early so that they are anticipating the things that Santa Claus, quote, unquote, may provide. So what you have to understand is stop buying your kids stuff just because it's on sale. Buy them what they want or don't buy them nothing. I play with Legos and video games, so a lot of things I needed didn't need batteries. It was either already plugged in or it didn't require batteries. Where... You should just teach your kids how to read. Maybe they'll ask for, like, books. Kids don't ask for books. They don't ask for books. You can buy them books. Yeah, you can buy them books. They're not asking for books. If you ask a kid, what do you want? Like, even then, I was reading Harry Potter. I wasn't asking for a Harry Potter book collection growing up. I knew I was going to get it throughout the youth because the Scholastic Book Fair was coming. And I'd get all my books for that. Shout out to the book fair. The Scholastic Book Fair was coming. I'd get my books there. You know, R.L. Stine's, all that stuff. Hmm, is this the Choose Your Own Mystery section? You know, R.L. Stine came to my elementary school. What is his real... What is R.L. Stine's government? I don't know. But R.L. Stine is not that man's name. Ralph Lauren Stein? No, it's definitely not. It's definitely not. What if he's actually the true Ralph Lauren Polo? He writes Goosebumps and Creation Close. That would be mind-blowing. First of all, did you know R.L. Stine is 80 years old? Oh, yeah, that man's old. Remember when he came to our school? He was about 50. And I was in elementary. I think I was in kindergarten or first grade. He was like 50 years old when he came there. He looked 50. He looked all part of 50. This is crazy. This man's government name is... Ralph Lauren. Robert Lawrence Stein. Oh, that was close. That was close. That was crazy. Who knew?
