Speaker 1 (00:00):
Wednesday after the show. I'm getting home. I have my
brand new Advent tee calendar that Kristin has given me
as an early present.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
He'd noted that, by the way, Diane, we learned that
earlier that Kristen bought Tyler an advent calendar, but none
for Diane, none for Elliott.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Kristin he's still pissed. No, no, no, I'm just oh,
it just sounds like it. I'm not pissed at all.
I'm more just keeping score anyway. And there is a
package that has been delivered. It's this time of year
we have to be really careful with return address labels
(00:38):
and to whom packages are for, so I don't go
near it. Also because of COVID, but Lindsay assured me
that the package was safe because she hadn't ordered anything,
and because COVID is not a thing anymore, I guess.
I walk over to it. It's a larger box, it's
(00:58):
probably two feet two feet two feet and heavy, and
I pop open the top and there is a note
that's Mary, Yes, and it's in the garage where we
start all the COVID pat week ago, and it says
Mary Christmas moll in our family from Santa or love Santa?
(01:23):
I think is that from Maybe it said love. Either way,
let's not let's not quibble over that. I recognize the
handwriting immediately, and that is when I sent Kristen a text.
So it says Kristen all caps, Well, I did that
thing that makes the text keep getting bigger and bigger.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Did you happen to send something in the mail my way?
Kristen responds with the Santa Claus face emoji?
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Tyler, how big does Santa think? My yard is?
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Kristin He visits every year in a sled with eight reindeers,
so probably pretty decent size. Tyler responds, Jesus Christ and
then underneath HBD with an arrow pointing up and then
Christen three laughing crying emoji faces.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
So what I pulled the contents of the package up
and out of the box. What I found was a
new inflatable and it's uh, is it enormous? It's a
big one. It is a nine and a half foot Clydesdale.
Oh my godly dude. Yes, not what I expected. Not
(02:31):
what I expected? You think it's not just nine and a half.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
I thought it was gonna but it's is it Christmas related.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Oh, there's a wreath on it. So in the dark. No,
it looks like we're just horse people. Uh. It's nine
and a half feet tall and nine and a half
feet long. So the body, my god, is it is?
How big was the one that was here?
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
It's much bigger than the real Clyde's Dale? Was it
really or is it really? Yes? Is it really? Yes?
It dwarfs the one you could You could put one
we had here a small compared to the one at
your house. You could bring people to my house for
photos if you shirts. I gotta get shirts printed off
and there would be a line. I mean this thing
(03:14):
I've never had to You had to steak down just
the fan before even getting it inflated.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Is it tall enough that if I walked up the
like the to get to your front door? Is it
tall enough to be an arch over my head?
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Oh? For sure? Is it really? The head is nine
and a half feet in the air on a scale
of one to ten. How white trashy? Does it look?
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Just?
Speaker 1 (03:36):
You know what the problem is? Now that you're the
inflatable guy, it looks like we're an inflatable family. Now,
how many is that? Five? You have five inflatables. Well
we have we have Santa, we have Brother Claus, the
wwe Santa, and then we have two other small ones.
You know about the Christmas tree and the gingerbread man.
(03:58):
Wasn't there one that got trampled by the guy? Oh,
i've i've they've gotten stepped on because we don't have
them up during the day.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Right, because that's not that it doesn't look as they
want it to look.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Sad, I have one that's not up, but yeah, I
have the undertaker one that's right. And then now I
have a horse. And it's not just any horse, this thing.
Wait is it up? Yeah, you're and you're keeping it
up all day. Well, it doesn't fit in the front yard.
So where is it on the roof? Did you roof it?
(04:34):
Because we can't have we can't have anything up out
of the windows anymore off the house like we did
with Santa last year. Why because we had some trees
removed so you'll have you'll see the EXTENSI who cares. Yes,
the extension cords were hiding behind trees. For the first
time in my life, yesterday I buried a cord the
(04:56):
Losers on I like the shows on the great Christmas life.
That's me now it looks like it is, except everything
I have a store bought isn't exactly what wins you
the giant ornament. By the way, you're a tacky lights tour. Essentially,
we are making our way.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
If this is you have more inflatable than anybody else
in your neighborhood. Oh god, you definitely have a bigger
one than anybody else in the neighborhood.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
We're this this one certainly should count as to this
new one. So what this one is up here? I'll
post the photo. This one is up in the backyard. No, no,
we made it look like you can walk up and
pet it behind the fence. So it's right.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
So it's in the backyard. But like the backyard fence
is a stable. Yes, oh good, so people can walk
up and pet.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
It or late at night. Status, there you go see that.
I will post the boy. That's a lot of lights. Huh, Well,
the led lights are inside. They come with it, as
Kristen knows, since this is her bit. Wait, how many
(06:10):
of the five has Christian bought you? Three? Two? Counting it?
This one is two you may as well. It feels
like a horse costume. You eat two people for it.
I mean, this one is so big and it's it's
you know what too. And I promised you last year
that my inflatables that I had then were not that loud.
(06:31):
I can't say that anymore.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Oh, this one's this one's chucking. This one sounds like
somebody's got a generator on. Well, you do have a generator.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
On all night? Yep, yep. So we've got to look
at the size of that Clydesdale overlooking the neighborhood and
you see it when you pull into our development. My god,
cause again it's almost ten feet long. It's not just
almost ten feet That's where I lose perspect active. Well,
(07:01):
you can see her. Let me post this because I'm
not seeing the full body. I know I shouldn't have
done ahead on. Did I do another shot? Is it
strong enough where you can get on it? No? So
here's oh god, here's the front of my house. Oh
I'm not I'm not gonna post that, but Santi al
(07:24):
Santa had to come down. Don't start Diana. Yeah, the
on its side so she can see it better. There
you go. Wow, y'all went all out. Chris Christ turn
yourself on.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Let me.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Have fingerprints are all over this setup. The what is
going on? What is going on?
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Though?
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Oh? You do have the light up candy canes. I
thought to illuminate the path to the door Santa.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
But that also blocks off where the inflatable Santa and
the the light up deer is on the other side.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
That's a bright red light that you got going on there.
I bought that for Halloween. Ry he can do any color.
It's one of those led changeable awesome. Oh and then
there's the two small inflatables. Yeah, when you were half
assn't it.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
That's great?
Speaker 1 (08:19):
This needs to end, Kristen.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Well, so here's what happened. A couple months ago. I
got to thinking, oh, I need to figure out what
inflatable I'm gonna send Tyler. I mean, Santa's gonna send Tyler.
So I found a little Clydesdale and I'm.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Like, that's loser, a loser.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
And then I saw the great big one and I
thought it was fitting. You just met and you know
Brandon I think his name.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Was, Yeah, our Clydesdale, Yeah exactly.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
So, uh so you bought this after the Clydesdale was here.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Yes, I've had it for a couple of months. It's
been the biggest secret that to not tell either of you.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
I give you because so Diane didn't know. Wow, so
you didn't even tell Diane.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
No, it's been killing me every day. I want to
be like Diane. I think it's going to arrive to
wait sow.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
So when did you order it?
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Maybe in August, early September, Tilltmber.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
It took till now to get delivered.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
No, no, no, no no, I've had it at home right
and I want.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
To Oh, but then you mailed it from your house
to well, you don't mail them from your house.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
I kept asking, what isn't this big bomb?
Speaker 3 (09:28):
He kept saying, when are you going to send it?
When are you going to send it? Why don't you
just take it to his house? I'm like, I don't
have time to drive up there, no offense, it's like
just a lot of traffic. But originally I wanted to
drop it off, and I'm like, no, I don't have time.
I don't have time. So finally, so you mailed them
mail it?
Speaker 1 (09:45):
How about that? How about that?
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Can I ask a question like that's a I've never
purchased an inflatable and I'm going to go on record
and say never will the.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Many times in my life that looks expensive?
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Though, would I be shocked at how cheap inflatables are?
Speaker 1 (10:05):
The big ones are not cheap.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
No, I'll tell you that one was eighty dollars eighty
bucks compared to other like you find it on that
was a discount at Walmart. Oh sorry no, because they
were like over two hundred dollars.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Are you serious?
Speaker 3 (10:19):
I'm like, no, I love you, Tyler, but I can't
spend that on that.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
How much was the the t advent calendar? Maybe like
fourteen so one hundred bucks. So what we're doing now
with gifts to give you a well, I know, well,
now I know what to start looking forward to. In
a couple of weeks, I'm topping it.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
But it was worth every penny.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
I'm gonna have to start because if she does it again,
and I'm not putting a passer to do it again, No,
I hope she doesn't, we're gonna have to rotate. Like
I can't keep adding to the display. Rotate that's a crime.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
No, no, no, no, I think what what Tyler means is,
I think you're misinterpreting it.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
You heard rotate of like this year, I put this
one up. No, no, no.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I think what Tyler means, which is what he's doing
with his Christmas tree, is that it'll turn into like rotate,
like the Clydesdale comes out and Sanna comes out, but
Cupid comes in right for Valentine's Day and then like
a like like somebody in a bikini comes out for
like Memorial Day or something. You know, there's got to
(11:24):
be one that, like Wana or something comes out for
Memorial Day.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Tyler, was your family mad or happy or the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
That's the problem. It's like giving us a puppy. I
can't return it because they're all excited for it.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Yeah, no, who wouldn't love well, I know somebody that
wouldn't love that. I'll put my hand right up now.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
The But that's the other thing. You didn't have to
put it up, Yes you do. Why because it's a
gift and everyone's thinking it's like the coolest thing ever,
because it's our biggest inflatable now and it's perfect by
the fence, that's where horse would stand. That was Lindsay's idea,
because she too understood this could not go in the
(12:04):
front yard just because there's not enough front yard, I
asked her in the text, I was like, come on this,
I that would have looked ridiculous. I know, I stumbled
over the sentence because I realized what I was about
to say.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Keep them going, Kristen, that's awesome, but now I also
like that it's not because that could really stay up.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Although you said there's a read, you don't see it
well at night. I guess I might have to get
another flood light. But then it's going to be on
the neighbor's house. I don't like my neighbors, but I'm
not going to do that to them. Have a bright light.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
You think the neighbors love that there's a gigantic horse.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Right up next to their house. The fan is loud, well,
like in the picture did it post on there? It is? Yeah?
Like like I live close enough to my neighbors that
that shed you see in the back that's not mine.
That is not my shed. Oh you can sort of see.
Oh here you go. Look you can see the fence
(13:08):
better now. Oh yes, now you can get some perspective.
And the wreath doesn't even start till after the fence ends.
Oh yeah, no, you're on this picture. You're right, you
have a better view of of the wreath. Do you
understand now what I'm saying. You could easily walk under
the head of the horse without even having to bed. Yeah, no,
it is a tall Did you guys name it? I
(13:29):
thought about names, but my family was at Texas Roadhouse.
That's that'sn't help. And I wanted it to be. I
wanted it to be a group discussion. Hey man, hey,
sweet sweet hey, where's your dad?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (13:52):
You're putting up it inflatable? Sweet hey?
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Man.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Actually I didn't get to go because of the decorator.
It was a last minute invite, and this takes pressing.
I had to get this stuff off before. It's almost
the third before Santa comes. It's twenty three days until Christmas.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Yeah, but you'll keep that up through New Year's I feel,
does is the wreath attached or does the wreath come off?
Speaker 1 (14:20):
The wreath is attached, because that'd be great for the
derby the I was going to, oh, no, no, no, make
it into a horseshoe. You could like like sort of
modify it. I was going to.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Oh, an inflatable ferrier could be right back by the
uh by the by the fence.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
There put some lights and a real wreath on the fence.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Right.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
I thought it looked tacky that that his wreath was inflatable. Oh,
some of these things I'm saying just don't add Hey,
I don't care what no one say. It looked good.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Hey, name him hawk Will Why would we do that
because it's white trash bro.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
How big are his hoofs.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Big enough that the back right hoof is actually the fan? What? Oh?
So the whole thing is a face, the whole the
second half of the leg is the fan. It's like
you didn't even read the dimensions.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
I didn't. I just saw.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
That's awesome, that's good Christmas.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
And I'm going to talk to Keith and see if
I could get some more Clydesdale's shirts printed up. Maybe
we'll do another meet and greet where you could come
by and peed a Clydesdale in the front of that house. Wait,
I thought you had two of the of the wired deer,
though I do.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
You can't tell here there is this one's actually bending
over to something. I'll fix that. I'll fix it mountains.
And I hate that you said that, because after I
set everything up, I realized when I went down to
get the street view that during the evening when they're
lit up, and the most illuminated obviously the white wrought
(16:18):
iron during the day, Who cares? It almost looks like
one day you guys look like one.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Yeah, that's why if you elevate the front of that
second deer onto the back of the first one, they'll
be able to tell it.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
To Also, I'm noticing in this picture that the gingerbread
guy his led lights a little weak.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
It is, it is, but because of how illuminated the
houses with red lights, you can't even really tell.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Hey, man looks great. And in my head, or at
least I shouldn't say in my head, wait, is the
LED light dirty? No?
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Oh, because if it was dirty, you just spin on
that thing.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Maybe I'll move for the LED light in front of
the two smaller inflatables. That's a good call. I just
deer because the Santa is so tall, I wanted to
give some height to the other side of the house
and put another inflatable over there. No, it's all about balance.
I also thought that the column here, which behind Santa
(17:21):
is is so white. I thought the red made it
look more like a candy cane thing with red and
white but it's not. It's no, it looks more like
a murder scene.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
The also the other thing, and I'm being serious, Yeah,
I think that the what in front of in front
of the gingerbread man in front, I'm sorry, in front
of the gingerbread flatable?
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Is there? Is that a walkway? Yeah? Can't you tell?
The candy canes are lighting it up for you the
other side?
Speaker 3 (17:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Right here, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
It needs that's where it needs balances. You need candy
canes on the other.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Side to maybe something, no, maybe something big the size
of the w W A Santa and you can't even
see I'm noticing that in the picture. Second deer. I'm
told you now, Santa has a big sack and you
can't tell. No, it's behind the deer, but you do
see you see his massive foam finger Number one wrestling fan.
(18:22):
But that's the front that again the horse. Everything else
is very The horse is on the side in the backyard.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
We can build off of this for next year, a
farm in the backyard.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Oh I I'll totally go in on inflatable Mary that
I would totally do.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
So this is interesting. Angela has sent over one, but
this isn't the same Clydesdale. It's a little that's a
wreath is different, smaller. You know Angelaine got that kind
of money? Yeah, Angela is sit there like man, you
really can't money.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Yeah, look at that. No, Angela's horse is wimpy, wimpy, wimpy.
That's a real horse.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
So yesterday I was trying to find a family photo
for our holiday card and the kids said, can't we
just stand under the horse? Yes? Yes, yes, and I
said absolutely not. We're picking something from our trip to Chicago.
Can you imagine? No?
Speaker 2 (19:24):
But now what I'm thinking is you know what would
look cool Angela's horse with your horse?
Speaker 1 (19:29):
I don't mounting this is it? No, it's not. Yes,
it's a limit. Now I'm putting unflatables. There are four up,
and that's all I'm doing. I hear that, Kristen. No,
but what about during for other seasons? I'm not doing
them outside of Halloween. I just ordered you a hard
art for Valentine's say thanks. Didn't you say you had
one for things? I did not have anything. No, I'm
(19:51):
sorry you said you wanted one for No? The old
tom turky feet tall?
Speaker 2 (20:04):
All right, very good, very good. I hope that's posted
everywhere it.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Is on Facebook, and next there we go.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
That's good, Kristen, nice work, nice work. Start thinking of
another one for next year. Now you're rolling now,
