They used to have a fellow in our neighborhood when I was growing up, and he had affliction. Nobody knew what he had. But he had... And his daddy had it. Whatever his daddy had, his daddy... It got worse when he had it, when he was born, damn, he's got it. I remember at the holidays, they'd put a bow on him. Put a big bow on him and let him be out in the yard and let him pick up Come out of the driveway gravel, make wishes on it, and throw it over the fence over there by their house.

What are we talking about? Good Good to see everyone. Merry Christmas to you. Merry Christmas to you. Happy holidays. Happy Black Christmas. I know that there's some people celebrate that Black Christmas. I don't remember what it's called, and I don't want to offend anyone. But you know what I'm saying? That chocolate, that chocolate Christmas, maybe. That Hersey's Christmas. You know what I'm saying? Get buck. Get buck. They got all the Christmases. Everybody, happy Christmas, Merry Christmas to you. The end of the year is here. I can't believe it. I can't believe that we got the end of the year already. I just remember everything was a crazy year. It started off, shit was weird, and then things got trans or whatever, and then suddenly it's Christmas. Anyway, Here we are. We have some great Christmas music, too. I want to just take a second so we can hear a couple of these tunes. We have them and just put us in the mood right here today. At the end of 2024, right here, let's hear a little something. That's Christmas Bells by Mike Franklin. That's that autism Christmas, baby. That Christism, baby. Let's hear a little more of it.

Santa's coming. Hello. Central. Central China. That's a little A bit of Asian Christmas, too. That's that Bobby Lee lunch whistle, baby. You know what I'm saying? That's that Bobby Lee mating call right there. You could see Bobby Lee just looking up in the distance behind a big stack of a big rice wall or something. You could see him looking That's beautiful there right there. It's called Christmas Bells by Mike Franklin. You got to love music this time of year. It's something that really keeps you together, keeps your mind together. I'll put on a song sometimes if I can't. If I can't handle shit all day, I'll put on a song, and I'll put a pacifier in my ass and just pray to God. Brother, Let's hear one more song here. This is called Christmas Wonders by Howard Harper Barnes. Amen. This sounds like rich people driving to shop or whatever, and the kid has clean hair. When the kid has clean hair and has a lunch box that has actual lunch in it. I remember my lunch box, sometimes it would just have a little piece of paper in there and say, Fuck you on it.

Then some silverware in that bitch, too. It would make that sound, that very industrial sound. When you were running with it, you would hear the silverware in there. Then you'd a nice piece of paper in there or something like, Get fucked, or something like that inside of it. Let's hear a little bit more. Oh, we are rich. We have gas in our car. It's a Volvo. Late for the store, the mall. It's closing. Let's get some steak for the kids. We're rich. Bum, bum. Are we almost out of gas? Fuck, no, we're not. We're rich. That's what that reminds me of rich people going to the mall with their clean hair and shit. And their kids or whatever. That ain't the... Our shit was just like, Jingle Bells. You'd have some guy out there smoking, Jingo Bells. They needed to throw a He throw a fucking mill of light against the wall. He'd be like, Where's your mother? Where's your fucking mother? Mom, who is that? Mom, is that Santa? No, that's your... And it would be your dad or your stepdad or the mechanic who you all owed money to. Dude, I remember the mechanic, one time we owed him something.

He came and got that bitch right back off the car, bro. I don't know if it was a damn spark plug or it was a motor joint or whatever. It was a damn clevis clamp or something for a steering pendulum. He came and pulled that bitch right out of there, dude. That car barely worked after. You had to turn the radio up to get it to go left. Every time if you wanted that bitch to go left, you had to fucking crank up some Aerosmith and pray. Two people had to be praying in the back. It ran on four hands power. You had to have four hands pushed together, praying straight to God, crank up that Aerosmith, bam, son, 90-degree right turn. That's how we did it back then. That's what that song reminds me. That's Christmas Wonders by Howard, Harper Barnes. Beautiful tune there to get you ready for the holidays. Let me see what else we got here. Here's one right now, and this is Christmas in the Club. Let's hear it. Oh, shit. Oh, shit. Prancer. Prancer in this bitch. Dancer. Reindier. On this shit. Reindier. Reindier. Scroo. On Pluto. On Ricky, on Mario, on DeAndre, in the club.

We all Reindier. That's a Mildly Urban tune, I believe there. That's Christmas House Music by Dylan Stitts. All right, and we may have one more Christmas tune here to bring you guys into the world, bro. We got a little something right here. This is called Trap Beat Christmas Past by Cushy. Bring it up in my headphones. Cush it. Snowfall, bitch. All the way. Rocky. Rocky got that cock on him. That is Trap Beat Christmas passed by Cushy with a little bit of ensemble in the background. I added some vocals there. That was Rocky got that cock on him. At the end. Everybody remembers a fellow I grew up with, his son Rocky, and he was mentally… Well, he wasn't mentally. He was unm or his shit was… He was that fucking… He was just the Lord's side item. But he had that thing on him. Maybe he had that piece. He had that freaking Draco on him. Boy, Rocky got that cock on him. I remember one year around the holidays, everybody was just shocked at the size of the stump on that beautiful young fellow. Even his father was, and that's what it's all about.

What's going on? Sorry. Don't know what I'm talking about. We're in the Christmas time of year, and I want to thank everybody who's just listened to the podcast this year and made a part to be a part of it. We've had the most successful year as a podcast, it depends on what you determine success by, but we've had the most prolific year, I think, and that's a blessing just to have it like that. What's going on? Today, I got to go over to Vanderbilt University over there with Coach Clark Lee and hang out with some of the players over there and watch them practice. They got a beautiful facility. It was just I felt lucky to be in the building. This is an SEC football school. Just to watch them go and just how it all... They have the different periods for when the team switch and practice different parts of the game plan in different formats and everything, when the football format. Just to witness all of that was pretty awesome. Just to be in Nashville as that team is building and really just putting that anchor down, baby. This was the year that they really, I think, put that stamp win on the program.

Just a great season over there. That was great. Just to get to do that. I wish them the best over there against Georgia Tech with Diego Pavia, that Latino Ninja. That guy just He is one of a kind, man. That whole team, they got a family over there. I think that's what I like the most, just being able to be around a group of people. As you get older and as life changes, you don't get a lot of groups like that. You don't get a lot of team like that in your life as much. I think even just to get to see that and be around it for just like, we went over there for maybe an hour and a half or something. Yeah, it was cool, man. I'm not trying to brag about it or anything, but I just thought it was just cool. So thankful to them. What's been happening in the world? We got a couple of things. People right here, it says, New Jersey drones. Oh, God, what is this? They got a call that came in about it. Let's hear this. What is it? Onward. Hey, Theo, what's up? What's up, brother?

Thanks for calling. What's up, brother? Just wanted to call, ask what you think about the drones in New Jersey. Just wanted to hear your thoughts on that and have a good day. The drones in New Jersey? Yeah, I've seen it. People are like, Look, hey, Hey, Samantha, get the fuck out of here. She's breastfeeding some little Rutgers fan or whatever, and he's like, Samantha, get the fuck, get out of here. Put your tits away and get out of here. The drones. They got the drones. Some guy's got fucking salami grease in his eyes. He can't even see that good. He's all fucking just geeked up on Mortadella or whatever. Yeah, if he gets the Hey, Frank, you're seeing this? He's getting the drones. People saying, They're from Africa online. African drones? They'd be paper airplanes, bro. Africa ain't making no Drones, bro. They're making soup. They're dealing with different issues, grassroots issues over there. They made Zambian drones over there. It's probably people like, It's aliens. I I don't care what it is. I don't care. Dude, if it's alien, it's good. You all keep talking about them bitches every week. Bring them on. I hope it is something from another world.

Hopefully, it's coming to help the jets, whatever it is. That's all it is. Hopefully, whatever them drones, I hope they go straight over there and help the jets over there because they could use some support. I know that. The New York could use a damn drone or something. On defense, they need it. But yeah, that's what people are saying, that the drones over there. Hey, Gina, get out of here. Gina's inside. She's finishing off a tattoo. She's getting a tattoo on her arm. It's like the third character from Boondocks Saints or something on her arm. Or it's some check from Marist with a Jersey, Mike's Brazier. She's nine mint juleps into the slot, and she's figuring things out. It's the drones. It's probably one of those frats just dropping pills into people's drinks. That's how they're doing it now, ladies. It's the drones. It's probably some PI with a remote on his phone. I don't know. That's what's going on out there. But yeah, that's what's happening in my world today. That's it. The year has happened so fast. I feel like I'm not getting enough time to prepare to be to do it. It's almost like you want to finish everything off and do everything.

Then I got to remember, you can only do what you can, right? You can only do what you can. Instead of trying to make it to five houses in one day on Christmas or Christmas Eve, make it to two or three and spend some quality time there and say, Hey, next year, I'll come and see you guys, or I'll see you at Easter, or I'll see you here, or I'll see you the day after. Sometimes we try to stack everything on the one day. Yeah, so that's what's happening. What else is happening in the news? London's Christmas tree this year is pathetic, this says. Let me see. Oh, that bitch. Dime, boy. London. The bridge is falling, dude. That bitch going to fall as well, baby. Gosh. Man, that thing looks like it got too many vaccines, brother. That thing. Wow. London, you all didn't... You got to give all your money to foreign countries as well, brother. That thing barely lit up. That thing missing some branches. A bird wouldn't land in that, bitch. I know that. You'd be lucky to find maybe a panguin roll up under it. But you couldn't find 60 birds that would live in that That thing looks like Section 8 for swans over there.

You're missing some branches on it. That looks like when you get one of those haircuts at one of those schools. You ever been to the school where they cut it? They have the person up front. It's his first time. It's like a school. It's a hair school. They had it in our town when I was young. For 50 cents, they'd cut your hair. Or they'd cut it for free if you fucking walked in there. They didn't give a shit. They was just happy to let You practice on it, bro. You come out that bitch looking like a damn guy. Everybody, you get a six-year-old lesbian, and I don't care what you was, male, female, B-Shon, anything. I don't care if you was Australian shepherd, you'd look like a damn six-year-old lesbian in there. They put damn side burns on your fucking right on the front of your head. They didn't know what they was doing in there. I think it was an Aveda Roberts or something it was called, Veda Roberts hair cafe or whatever. You go in there 50 cents. It was some dude, he'd been a substitute teacher three weeks earlier at my school, and now he's in here and he's shaking hands.

Hi, I'm Reginald or whatever, and he changed his name and it's Reginald. Bitch, you're Reginald. All right? I don't know. I'll pretend with you for 45 seconds, but you're Reginald from social studies, sir. Then he'd try to trim your shit up or whatever. He'd take you, they'd wash your hair. Dude, he'd try to fucking drown you in there. Drown you in the sink for 50 cent. You'd barely make it out that bitch, dude. Just scary to be a part of some of that shit. What were we talking about, Trevon, do you remember? The London Christmas tree. Oh, yeah. I can relate to not getting what you pay for there, London, or getting what you pay That's what you get, baby. What else do we have? Pornhub will block access for Floridians on January first. I say this, I applaud this. I have friends that work in a pornography or that do it and stuff like that, and that's fine. This is not a judgment against any of those people or any people that are involved in sex work. But no one in Florida will be able to access PornHub, the most trafficked pornography website in the world as of January first.

Honestly, I think that it's good. I think watching porno, for me, it makes a lot of shame inside of me. Any time I'm busting myself out or just doing... Any time I'm just larping that freaking ranger or whatever, or I'm just making my body talk and do just... Anytime I'm doing pornography, I don't feel good about myself. That's the truth. I don't feel good about myself. It makes me It makes me feel ashamed. It makes me feel weak. It makes me feel ashamed of myself. Those aren't ways that I want to feel. I believe it takes away... Because I've seen this happen with so many of my friends and myself. I think it takes away your desire to connect with the opposite sex. Then you go home and you don't have the energy for your wife. You don't even have the attraction because you're basically just taking the attraction out of your body. God puts magnets in our body or Mother Nature or God, Mother Nature, whatever. She keeps changing her name. I have no idea. But she's probably just hiding Trying to hide from the courts or whatever. But she and God or whatever, they put a magnet in your body, and that creates the attraction.

When I'm taking all my energy and I'm putting it in a pornos on the internet, or whatever. I'm just giving all of my energy, my good, beautiful human nature energy, I'm giving it away. Then it makes me feel ashamed. It makes me feel just... It doesn't make me feel good. That's what I'll say. I don't want to do that. I'm glad that they're starting to crack down. Not they're starting to, but we need some help. I think That's what I think. I think we need some help. Yes, people should be able to watch whatever they want or look at whatever they want. But also, I don't think we should just let everything just be available. I don't think so. Some people might say, Well, that's communism or something. I don't know. That's a restriction. That's fine. Look, I've watched enough porno to know that you don't need it. Now, it's easy for me to say because I got to see some of it. I'll sit around a fire and tell you what it was like if that's what you need. But I'm happy. I think we need to go back to the days of drawing.

You have to sneak into your brother's room and sneak a drawing of some from under a fucking aquarium, and it's a little bit wet and it's got some fishflakes on it or whatever on the sketch. But that's how you get it. I think there needs to be a little more barrier to entry in the sex. Yeah. Look, that's how I feel about it. That's okay if you feel differently, but I've watched it have an effect on my own life, and I'm glad it won't be as accessible, I think. That's okay if you feel differently. I'm not saying what I feel is right, and that's okay. But I'm just tired of like, I feel like it takes your masculinity. It's trying to. It's like these systems that use these algorithms against us. It knows. It knows you're addicted to it. It's like, I'm going to serve you that addiction right here. It is up to ourselves to be able to prevent ourselves from looking at it. I agree. But It's easier for me not to do cocaine if somebody isn't just... If every time I open my window, there's somebody not right there with some cocaine.

That's all I'm saying. This episode is sponsored by Prizepicks. Do you love firing on sports? Taking a chance? Well, prizepicks is the best daily fantasy sports app for you.

I got him in the living room. That's my little angel. Oh, they said they put this one right near the barbies.

This Cat Williams is trying to meet a white girl. Look at this one. A That William somebody put. Gang, baby, that's one. And then, whoa, whoa. This one-off that scissor, baby.

No, what is that thing called, Trevon? Snow globe? Snow globe. Thank you. But yeah, and then this one right There's sketch sent me this one. There's one, and that's Cat Williams and Cam Newton hanging out right there. We caught them on the edge of the store over there by the appliance area, air condition, HVAC, all that. They over there mangling or whatever, talking shop. Okay, what else we got? We got some more art, TikTok TikTok is on the verge of getting banned. The Supreme Court will hear arguments over the law that could ban TikTok in the US if it's not sold.

Who's the owner of TikTok? I want to see if he would come on here. I think it's Chow Shane or something. I think it's Chow Shane. Chow Zichu? Shit. Yes, Chow Zichu. Yeah, we got to get him in here because I want to know what the truth is. I would like to say to you, Chauzechou, if you're willing to come on, maybe we would love to have you in here. Just to learn a little bit about it right here. The Supreme Court said it will hear arguments next month over the constitutionality of the federal law that not ban TikTok in the United States if its Chinese parent company doesn't sell it. The law enacted in April said a January 19th deadline for TikTok could be sold or else face a ban in the United States. The popular social media platform has more than 170 million users in the US. The high court will also hear arguments from content creators who rely on the platform for income and some TikTok users. President-elect Donald Trump, who once supported a ban but then pledged during the campaign to save TikTok has said his administration would take a look at the situation.

Trump met with TikTok CEO, Shauzee Chew on Friday. The case pits free speech rights against the government's stated aims at protecting national security. The government is protecting national security. I think at this point, we can all recognize they don't really have our security in their sites. You know what I'm saying? They'll let anybody... They don't want somebody getting your information off TikTok, but they'll let somebody just come across the... Willy-nilly, come into the country. Willy-nilly, and I say that only because we've met with border patrol agents, and that's the truth. You can sugarcoat it any way you want. I don't believe that. I believe that they don't want people sharing the truth about the genocide in Palestine, and that's why that they're doing it. I believe that that's what it is. Tiktok is one of those places where people can still do that, and they want to own it. They want to own it, Suppressing. Yes, suppressing. Thank you so much. Yes. I think, yeah. People say, thank you. People say, Well, we don't want China to have our information. All these I don't understand what that means. What do you have my information? I have six pieces of information.

There's no way you don't have them. I've put them into some of the probably shadiest sites on the web. You got them. People have our information. What do you want? I'm scared they're going to get my DoorDash order. They have our information. Then it's just what don't they want us to see? What don't they want us to see? Because if they can control what we see, they'll control what we know or what we believe, maybe. I don't know. Do I sound crazy? I don't know. It doesn't matter. There's a difference between the TikTok in China and the TikTok in USA. It says right here, while both are owned by the same company, ByteDance, TikTok and China, called Douyen, Douyen, D-O-U-Y-I-N, Douyen, is significantly different from the version available in America, with a much stricter focus on child friendly content, including educational videos and stricter time limits due to stricter Chinese government regulations regarding online content for minors, whereas the American version is considered more open and has a wider variety of content with less restrictions on viewing time. Is it more open as a wider variety. I understand the Chinese government probably keeps theirs more informative.

Then America, it's just we like the fat, we like the funny. It's just like we don't want to learn as much. It's not as much of our nature, a lot of us. We're more tempted by the other stuff, and so that's what we consume and enjoy. But that seems like a crazy… But I just don't buy the content. I just don't buy that they're getting What are you going to get our information? What are you going to get my shoe size? What are you going to get my address in college or something? What are you going to get? What vitamins I'm taking? What are you going to get? It's like, they're going to get our… What With what information? I can't think of anything that I haven't already put into a computer, probably. So I think they have our information. But what do I know, dude? I don't fucking know, dude. I'll smoke a bag of my own in nuts, homie. I don't give a shit, boy. I will eat the fucking shingles off your house. Yeah, I will. All right, what else do we have? We got some calls that came in. Any more news?

Oh, Columbus Funeral Home, the first to operate in America with a liquor license. Columbus, Ohio, a North Side funeral home, could soon serve mourners in a new way. Alcohol. Wow. Welcome to Ireland. That's what we're talking about. Funeral Evergreen funeral, cremation, and reception is set to open next year. They apply for a liquor license and could soon be serving people during services. That's nice. The mission is to make the process of a very difficult time a little easier. My role in this position is to be a party planner for the dead. That's what Hunter Triplet told WSYX. Triplet wants to shed the business's reputation of being dark and morbid by offering manageable prices and the option for mourners to raise a toast to a lost loved one with a bar. That's fair. Interesting. We will be serving alcohol when people are on the premises and remain on the premises. Yeah, because imagine that somebody leaves a funeral, car accident, deceased. So these people are, I don't know what that's called, double-dipping or whatever. It seems like it. But hey, that's the America we should But we got to ban TikTok because it's getting your information.

What else? Oh, New York, considering special hotline just for CEOs to report alleged threats to their safety after the Brian Thompson killing. For those of you who do not know it, Brian Thompson was the matriarch or whatever. Brian Thompson, that's not the right word. He was the CEO of United Health care, I believe it's called. United Health care. He was gone down in the middle of Manhattan earlier this month. New York governor Kathy Hockle is considering creating a special hotline just for CEOs to report alleged threats to their safety. A hotline? That sounds like some CEO is going to call a hotline. I think they know now. They would all call it because it feels like they just got… There's no point in the hotline. You got it. The threat to the safety is there. Somebody has been popping off. Somebody pulled that Draco out on somebody. Money because they wouldn't do the… They was wrenching somebody's mother over to medical bills and stuff. You knew it was going to happen, I feel like. I feel like this is where we're starting to get in society where you're going to start to see vigilantism. Now, some people can just say it's murder.

Some people can say it's vigilantism. It could be both. That's the thing as well. But you're just going to see at a certain point, that's going to happen. You're seeing people take things into their hands because institutions like the government or won't do it. That's what you're starting to see. You're seeing it everywhere. You started to see it during COVID when Dave Portanoi was hanging. They were helping out small businesses while the government, while COVID people, where they were shutting them down. You started to see private people or regular people taking action to do things that you would think that your government would do. I think at a certain point, you would think that your government would keep you safe from toxic insurance programs, and they aren't. Medical debt is the leading of bankruptcy in America. You think about the stress and all that cause, it's horrible. It's horrible. But meanwhile, we have billions of dollars to give somewhere else. It's just fucking people are sick of things. Then you start to see people take things into their own hands that their government should be doing for them. How do you guys feel about vigilanteism?

Is that a crazy thing to say? I mean, obviously, it is murder. It a crime, so that is no doubt. But sometimes there are crimes that people do because there's no choice. We give that excuse when people rob a Shonies or whatever, or you rob a taco, Vesper, whatever. Some guy selling fucking Mexican off of the back of a damn bird scooter or whatever, some fucking lime, some fucking little lime monster. Slinging that shit, homes. Slinging that shit. But anyway, I'm fucking rambling. I think I'm getting a little bit into the news. But I'm interested. What do you guys think about vigilantism? Do you think this is just murder? Do you think that we're going to see more of that as time goes on? Because at some point, if something bends enough, the fucking shit is going to start to get weird. And I like weird shit. You know what I'm saying? I like weird shit, bro. I've been involved in some misconnections with the devil, brother. But I love how the government thinks a hotline is going to help, bitch. That's the same thing you gave to people that were having problems with the insurance company in the first place.

You gave them a call a Hotline. Motherfucker, your mom has been on hold with insurance for 2 hours. Now she got to call another hotline to complain about it. Get fucked. That's what I say, bro. That's what I say. When people start to realize the truth, bro, that's wild. That's what I say, man. Damn, this shit got me I'm agitated. I'm between insurance companies right now, so I better calm down, dude. That's the truth. I think my new policy goes in on the first or whatever. Anyway, let's get to some calls, man. Sorry, I've been rambling. I know I've been vocal about shit, but maybe I'm not sorry. I don't know what I'm doing, dude. I don't know. It's been a long year and shit does make me agitated sometimes. I've had three coffees today. I watched a SEC team play football. I'm feeling We got a video call in right here that came in. As always, the hotline is 985-664-9503. You can submit videos as well through the website. Here we go. You want potty? What do you say after that? Gang, gang. Gang, gang. Maybe there's a young kid right there. If he potties or whatever, if he does pissing or does a booty work, they let him say gang, gang.

That's It's beautiful. Praise God. Good to see these young fellows. Right here. What up, Theo? My name is Dallas. What's up, Dallas? Good to see. Good to hear you, brother. Let's hear more. I'm driving home right now. What I do for a living is I set up Christmas lights for people. Some might call me a spreader of joy. I'm a joy spreader. Spread that holiday greeting. Okay, brother. Thank you. And putting the lights up. I looked into it. It's a little pricey. I looked into it. It's a little pricey. I'd rather just get home and wish they were up for about a month. Then it's January or whatever. But I do feel you, and I get jealous when I see homes that have them up. If I get a wife next year, I don't work as much, I'm going to put some up. But onward, man, I'm sorry, I'm making this about me, brother. Let's hear more. But what I'm trying to get to is that I do it all morning, all night long. Sometimes I'm getting home at 3:00 in the morning and doing that again at 7:00 in the morning. It's long days.

Yeah, brother. Well, if you're trying to change the whole mood of a neighborhood, it's going to take time, man. You know what I'm saying? Romano's Maccarony Grill wasn't built in a day or whatever they say, man. I don't know what that saying is. Onward. I feel like I'm giving all the joy, but I don't have the joy being reclinished within my temple, my body. So I don't know. What is your advice on how to- I'll tell you how you got to do a little peep in time, and maybe right there. You right there, brother. You know what I'm saying? The devil just put you on the windowsill, boy. You elf on a shelf of lust, brother. You got an excuse to be on the ladder. You know how hard it is to climb up that ladder with no excuse to be in someone's yard, brother? And you just tell them you're birdwatching or something, you're just staring into their fucking window. Yeah, dude, you're getting paid to peep in time, brother. What are you talking about? Change your attitude. Start lurking and slurping, homie. You know what I'm saying? Get tipped out big, dog. You feel me?

How much is that dogy in the window? Get over there and get you some, boy. Oh, with that ladder, boy. Get out there, brother. You know what I'm saying? Slurp, Daddy. All right, let's hear another call that is coming about Christmas. Hi, Theo. It's Stephanie from Mississippi. Hey, Stephanie from Mississippi over there. I'll be going to Natchez, Mississippi, actually, for a night to spend time with some family that I used to live with over there. My buddy Richard Sharp, his family. Just blessed to get to see them again. Gang, onward. I'm sitting here racking my brain, trying to figure out what I should get my eight-year-old son for Christmas. I mean, you were a boy once, you were a eight once. Yeah. I just wanted to know your thoughts about that. Thank you, man. Love you. Bye. Love you, too. Thank you so much for calling. That's a good question. Where do you get an eight-year-old boy? He's just a boy, probably. I wonder how tall he is. How long is an eight-year-old? Let me look that up really quick. How long is an eight-year-old soccer game? What? That's ridiculous. Who's looking up that shit?

It says between 47 and 54 inches tall. Shit, how long is that? How much is that? Fifty feet. Sorry, 50 inches is 4 feet. Okay, so we're looking at 4 feet tall. Something that's 4 feet tall, what do you get it? Fuck, that's a damn wiener dog that you got living with you. Yeah, an eight-year-old. You know what? I I think there was some things my mom would get us that were fun things, but then she would get us things that were creative thinking things as well. I really liked that. We would get puzzles or different type of stuff, clay. One year, we didn't have any money. My mom got us a couple... She got us everybody these two-liter sodas, these big old and big dog. You remember them bitches? When they first came out with them bitches. In one year, they came out with a damn three-litre soda. Bring that bitch up. God dang, boy. When they... Bro, you rolled into my neighborhood with a fucking three-litre soda, bro. We ride here. You don't want it anywhere. We ride here. We ready. Bro, that bitch was a gangbanger. That's the shit. I get that little bastard of three liter soda, baby.

Shake that bitch up. But I think also some jewelry, get him something, man. I'm a I'll ice my family out probably with some stuff from Cole's or maybe some Backwood's shirts or whatever, different... Shit. What is it called? Full body fits. Maybe some Backwoods fits or something. I think, but that an eight-year-old, I like something, though, that he has to think or something you can also maybe do with him. There's got to be a good game or something or a shovel, too, or a treasure map. Get him a something. Maybe hide something for him and get him that treasure. Get him a treasure, a shovel. Treasure getter. Because then you have him dig up something and maybe it's nothing, right? But oh, well, that's life, huh? That's life, shorty. Better learn it now. Work hard, bro. You ain't getting shit. But no, I think also a big hug, maybe take him to a nice movie. What about this? What if you get him a gift card to a movie theater, and then he gets to pick out some movies he wants to go see? Maybe that could be something where you get to read the movies to him and be like, Well, these are the movies they have for your age.

Then he gets to pick one and choose it. Then it's him making a choice and feeling like he has a choice in if you guys get to spend time together or not. I think that would have been something that I probably would have enjoyed. My mom took me to Wendy's once when we were kids, and I remember that. That's nice. That was something nice as well. Destiny. I Is that lady's name? Yeah, and just Merry Christmas to you and your son. I'm glad you guys get to do some fun stuff together. What's something else? I think something like that is nice where he gets a say so in it, and then it's a choice he made. That builds up his ability to think and ask, Okay, well, what are the choices? Maybe. What do I know? Eight-year-old kid might not… He might want to just sip Trank or whatever and sit in a fucking sedan in the park I have no idea what kids are doing now. Here we got a call that came in right here. As always, the hotline, 985-664-9503. What's up, Theo? This is Will from South Carolina. I had a question for you.

I was just wondering Me and my buddies went to a casino up here, King's Mountain, one of the Native American casinos. You guys went to a Native American casino. Okay, thank you. I was just astounded by the amount of Asians here, not to be racist or anything, but It's not racist to see Asians, brother. Let me tell you that. It's not racist to see Asians. You see Asians, what are you going to do? Not see them or whatever? Pretend you're going to rip your eyes out of your head? No, it's okay to see Asians, brother. Let's see more. Sorry. Let's hear more. The amount of Asians that were at this casino were just insane, dude. I mean, it was pretty cool. But have you ever Have you experienced that Asians are prolific gamblers? Yeah, I've seen a lot of that, man.. The one guy was yelling, I remember. It was a basketball or something. I remember walking through a casino one time, and that Asian fellow over there,. He kept yelling. Yeah, they love it. Asians like that risk. They like the fucking risk, man. Because Because I think Asians, they like the risk.

They like the smoke. They like the smoke and they like the risk. Hey, what's up? Hey, I'm Asian. So, yeah, dude, they fucking... Yeah, Asians, bro. Hey, what are you doing? I'm gambling. Hey. You know? So, yeah, Asians love that shit, Hey, bro, put four Asians in a box. What do you got? It's people that gamble. Praise God, baby. Here we go. We got a call that came in right here. Onward. Hey, Theovon. My name is Miles. I have a brother. Hey, Miles, and thank you for calling. I'm glad that you have a brother, man. Let's hear some more. That acts really gay. How do I ask him if he's gay without pissing off? Thank you, bro. Well, I think you could do it in a gift way. You could do it in a gift way, like a note or so. You put a note in a package, a little note, or when you write it, draw it or whatever, and it says, Are you... And then it just has two guys hugging or whatever. But then he's going to think that you're just asking if he's in the Navy or whatever. I'm trying to think of how do you do it.

I think you just got to tickle him or not until he tells you if he's gay or not. That's what my uncle would do. Because that's how you even get gay. Somebody just tickles you so damn much. Your whole spirit just fucking just spoilt into just wanting to meet some guys somewhere. I think you got to figure it out, brother. I don't know, dude. Why would you even call and ask me that? I don't know. I appreciate you calling. Sorry, I shouldn't say that. I appreciate you calling, man. You know what? I'm sorry you're dealing with that. But I'm glad you care. I remember, I thought my brother would try to make love to me when we were children. You know that? I'd be scared. At night, I remember I had me a little bag of a little sack of jingo bells, a couple of J-bels, and I'd lay down at night and I'd balance some J bells on my body. If he tried to come get me, you could set off the alarm. What else? What do I want for Christmas? I am getting a book that I know I asked for. I got a couple of vitamins.

I'm getting this mic arm maybe fixed. What else? I'm trying to maybe take a little trip to the beach or something, but I don't know yet. I'm going to spend Christmas in Louisiana, so I'm excited about that in Baton Rouge and Covington, Mandeville, New Orleans, just around the hood. Grateful for that to see some of my friends and family. Those are things that are going on with me. Let me play a call right here. Hey, what's up, Theo? I'm a huge fan. I listen to your podcast at work all the time. Thank you, brother. Thank you for checking it out. And I feel fortunate that we get to keep doing this. My question is, I was in the military for five years, and I was in Japan, and I had a fiancée of five years. When I came home, I found out she cheated on me a year ago. Should I give her another chance since I wasn't home all the time? I'd come home once a week, every year, or should I just move on? Thanks, Gang, Gang. I think that's a great question. I think you got to look at the reality of it.

If you're home once a week for a year, that's tough. Now, she broke her word. Some people are young, and at certain times, their word isn't really as strong because they are still putting their word together. I'm not justifying everybody's behavior. Everybody body's behavior. I'm not justifying my own behavior, even. But there's definitely a different... You're learning some things. People said, You're learning in your 20... Yeah, you are. You're learning how to be in a long... All that stuff. You're figuring it out. Sometimes you're afraid to hurt somebody's feelings, and that's why you don't tell them, even though it's selfish because it has hurt them in the longer way. But you don't know that. You're figuring it out sometimes. I think it's possible. I've had friends that have forgiven the loved one or significant other for sexual indiscrepancies, and then they packaged it up. Now you can hear them I won't even invite them over because they'll be in there thumping, brother. They'll be in there just slurping. I think that's part of it. But yeah, look, you can always try it and see how it goes. But the weird thing, and I've done this where you forgive somebody, but then you keep bringing that shit up.

That isn't good. It feels good, but it's not cool. That's the thing you can't do. If you forgive, you have to forgive, man. You have to forgive because otherwise, you're just letting somebody hold. You're basically holding a card. You're saying, I'm going to hold this card that I can use whenever I want. That's worse than choosing to forgive or not to forgive. That's you then saying, I want this power. I want this power to control how the situation goes constantly. I'll notice that in my own life over a certain time. Sometimes I want to keep a level of communication. I want to keep enough distance where I can… If I think somebody might have an issue or might be upset about, instead of bringing it up and talking them, getting it I'd rather almost sometimes… This is not the best part of me that wants to do this, but there's a part of me sometimes that would… I'd almost rather let them be unsure because let them be unsure if our relationship is okay because it gives me some power. It gives me some perceived control in my own head. That's a sick part of me that operates that way.

It's not always or anything, and it's definitely been in the past, but I have noticed that behavior in myself at times if I'm not doing well or not taking care of myself. I'd rather keep things on thin ice because I'm used to it. That's why I do well. I'm okay on thin ice. How are you going to be out here? It's that shit. But holding the grudge. Yeah, holding a grudge type shit. But yeah, man, I wish you the best luck. I think it's nice of you to call and ask about it, man. And also, we all figure things out as we go. Don't be too hard on yourself either. Let me hear one right here. Oh, there's a bug on this wrapping paper. It's okay. Does Blue Chew work? That's the question we all want to know.

All right, let's take a call right here. Jessie's Girl. Tiffany, get out of here. They got aliens out here. Hey, bring out a couple of...

Warm up the Manna Coty. They got fucking aliens out here. Aliens. You think I Alien is going to come to America on a fucking drone or whatever? On some bitch ass Toyota drone or something? That bitch is basically a ceiling fan that's in the fucking air with a couple of Christmas lights on it. Look at these aliens. Bro, aliens are doing alien. They blink their eyes and your fucking asshole is missing. They're on another level. You think they're out here just running around just on 97 octane over here? Just peeking in neighborhoods and shit. Over here, looking at a bunch of above-ground swimming pools, just watching people just singing Bruce Springsteen in above-ground swimming pools over there, outside of Trenton or whatever. Get fracked. Stringing up these lines. Anyway, onward. Thank you. I'm going to throw a little bit of a rough patch. Lossed my job, lost my house about a year after getting a divorce. Okay, rough patch. Lost your job and your home. Man, I'm sorry to hear that. It's been about a year since your divorce. I'm fighting for my kid right now. Things just been getting easier, man. You're in a court battle for your child.

You're saying things aren't getting easier. I'm not right then. I just need to figure out how to be a person again. Been through rehab three times. Last time since we've been sticking pretty good, so there's that. But man, why does it seem like everybody gets to be happy but me I'm just at a loss with it, man. I've worked hard my whole life. Just keep going and going. Everything just keep slipping and slipping. And I don't know what to do anymore, man. Things are just getting way out of control for what I can handle. Amen, brother. I appreciate you reaching out and just saying, Hey, seeing what's going on. Yeah, dude, I definitely... God, I've felt down in the dumps. I think everybody has at some point. When the chips keep falling the other way, when the Asian guy keeps winning all the gambling stuff, Full house, bar, bar, Korea. I'll tell you a couple of things, They just said I've had a notice in myself. There was times when I only noticed the rough shit in my life. I only noticed it. I'm I'm not saying this happened to you, but that self-pity became my alcohol.

Anytime I needed this, I'd feel sorry for myself. Well, let me open up another can of I feel sorry for myself. I'm not saying this is what you're doing at all. This just reminded me of this for myself. I mean that wholeheartedly, bro. I would just slurp a six-pack of self-pity. That was my drug. This is wrong. When that hit me, I was like, Oh, Oh, shit, man. I'm washing myself in bathwater. I'm doing the thing that I'm supposed to do to take care of myself. I'm getting this stuff off of me and out of my system. But then I got a straw in my own bathwater. I was sitting there just slizzerping. On my own sadness all the time. Now, I'm not saying that's what you're doing, but I noticed for myself that self-pity became a drug for me. What else, man? Let me think of something else. That's a lot, man, because a lot of what you're saying has real emotional attachment to it. You're trying to get your kids out of your house. That's a lot of upheaval. I think some of that probably just takes time. But yeah, I'm sorry, man, that's also a lot.

That's a lot. I think just give yourself some grace to not also put the pressure on yourself to feel great. It's a lot of tough stuff going on. The other day, I was upset about something. I wanted to call and just fucking rearrange the tits on somebody. I wanted to switch them bitches, put the FM went on the AM dial and vice versa. I was just pissed at this lady. But instead, I just sat in my car for a little bit. I breathed. That's why God gave me this big note. He's like, Breathe, motherfucker. What are you doing? You out here just taking chances, bitch. I'm showing you. Do eight ball of air, boby. We need G up. I had me a couple of Charlson shoes there. I found them a corridor, and ate them bitches. Then I just went to an AA meeting. After that, After that, I even called my brother. I said, Hey, man, I can't. If I call this person right now, I'm going to lose my mind. He said, Well, wait till later. Because I was attaching all this other shit to my day. I was attaching all these feelings and stuff to my day.

To that next thing, I was bringing a whole trailer full of bullshit, and I was going to hitch it to this one moment about the way things had gone down with this This woman. It wasn't like a dating. It was a work thing. But it was all me. It was all my shit that I was bringing extra to what would have just… Then when I finally was chill, It was a normal conversation, and it was a normal conversation. It was actually positive. It could be positive. I don't know what I'm telling you, man. I'm just telling you, I'm sorry that you're dealing with that. It's a tough time of year and it's the holidays. But you're not alone, man. We're only alone when we find ourselves alone. We got to remember to get out there, too. Nobody's going to come and just help us be on alone. We have to do it. They say that old saying, nothing changes if nothing changes. If I want something to be different, I have to do something different. I'm not preaching at you. I'm listening. I'm basically just talking to myself right on. But But, yeah, man, I love you and keep your head up and next year will be a different year.

Next year will be a different year. Don't leave before the miracle happens. You know that saying. That's what they say. But Merry Christmas. Thank you for being supportive of this podcast. Thank you for letting me be a part of your life. I'm going to make some New Year's resolutions, something nothing too heavy, just some things like some goals for the new year. We want to do more ways to give back, and I'm excited about that. We're finally putting a foundation together, so that's really exciting. We're going to be able to find ways to do that. What else? I think to just learn more from people that can help us learn. I want to learn more and get more information and learn more about myself, too. Try not to do everything myself. That's one of my things I struggle with. Sometimes I just want to do it all alone. But the saddest thing I realized when you do everything alone, after it's done, there's nobody to talk to about it. There's nobody to share with us. Anyway, not trying to end on a dour note. Oh, yeah, we went out Christmas caroling the other day. I'd been wanting to get out and do it, and it It was just some guys from the gym.

We put a little squad together and went out there and hit the streets. We had a couple of bangers, a couple of songs we had to give up just in the middle of it. There was one church group that was having a dinner. They invited us in for some cookies and select meats and stuff. It was good, man. We did a good job. We did a good job out there. We just put some songs together and just walked the and just went up to people's doors and knocked. People were happy. They had somebody had a dog that saw us as well. People and animals were really enjoying it. One woman, Alzheimer's, saw us and then, I don't know if she saw us or not, but We was there. But we enjoyed it, man. Anyway, I just want to wish everybody a Merry Christmas. You guys take care of each other. Take care of your loved ones. Sorry if I sound preachy today. I feel really preachy. I don't mean to. I got to go do some work after this, and that's okay. Sometimes I struggle with I'll get up and it'll be like, I have to do this.

I have to do this instead of I get to do this. People say that all the time, but it's like, I really have to take that moment more and try to look at my own perspective. This is life. This is life, and you get to do it. How do I want to feel about it? That's something I got to… How do I want to feel about it? Sometimes I'll still choose. I want to feel pissed about it. I want to feel bad about it. Then it's like, Well, why? Why do I want to feel that way? I want to feel bad about it. I want to feel pissed about it. Because then it's really just me advertising. I want you to feel how That's what it is. There's something inside of me that I want you to feel. It's not fair that I have to feel bad. You should feel. I'm going to bring that energy out of myself. I think more often than not, if I can try to get a little bit more around like, Well, let me find a good part of me. Let me find a part of me that's hopeful, that's grateful, that's that fight and chance.

Let me find that part of me inside of me and bring that part to the front of me. Because that's also a part of me. Just as the part of me is that wants you to see the part of me that That has pain. There's a part of me that has pride and that has hope. That is a part of me, too, that sometimes I don't sermon that part of me enough to the front of myself. There's no judgment in that. I'm just thinking and realizing it. I almost want to bring sometimes a little bit of a victimhood. I don't know if it's a victim, but I want somebody to recognize. Something. I want to… But there's also a part of me that's like, I got this. I can do this. I'm okay. I can handle this. I love myself. I love someone. I love someone. So these are my hopes. These are my dreams. Let me walk out into the world with that. Let me bring that. Let that be the mirror that people see when they come up to me. Then I'll probably get more reflection out of the world than I would like that when I show up the other way.

Anyway, man, I love you guys, and just thank you for coming out to shows this year and being so supportive. Be good to yourselves, man. You guys deserve it. Let's go out on one. This is also These are all from Epidemic Sounds is where we get our music from, and you can listen to these bangers in there. This is the Christmas spirit by the Snowy Hill Singers. You guys be good yourselves. What a fun year I think we tried to I have. I just pray that we can have a good one next year, too. We got this, baby. Praise God, baby gang. I hate that shit. Let me get one more. That was an antithesis of what I just said. Sorry, dude. All right, let's hear this one, guys. Love you all. Oh, yeah, baby. Turn them lights off, baby. Turn them on, actually. I got to find my shoes. Yeah. Oh, God, boy. Oh, yeah. Let me put some lotion on your legs, big Daddy. I remember this old guy in our neighborhood would let us lotion his legs up, or his son would let him. This man would let us lotion up his dad's legs.

His dad had been in the war, I think, or in a fire or something. He would let us put the lotion on him when we were young. This reminds me of that. All right, that ain't it either. Jesus Christ, that's sad. Let's see one more that we got here. Let's try this one. Oh, yeah. Hey, what's up? Not much, I want to go gambling. I gamble. I gamble. Hawaii Five-Oh. Merry Christmas, everybody. This is the Peaceful Christmas Waltz by Von Meier. Von Myer, and a relative of mine. In a special... This sounds like somebody dancing their way up to heaven, just on the different stairs. That made me my buddy, Donnie Aater, big I'd like to say peace and blessings to my buddy, Donny Aater. He's headed to heaven, and he sold big rig truck and tractor supplies over there on a Louisiana border, baby. God bless you, brother. Merry Christmas, everyone. Gang.
