You're not keep your asshome, man.
Speaker 7 (02:49):
That's how I'm looking at it. Man, Family is everything.
I think you're coming over to celebrate family GIF thanks
all crazes. You know what I mean. You can't contribute,
you know, like.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
I'm with you.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
It's about family. If you get all the food stuff
is the fact that you got family alive and healthy
and together. That's the most important thing.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Given what you mean, it's given. The most important thing
is the food. But you know, the family to get food,
but you should eat. That ain't true, y'all, y'all don't.
Y'all don't want to sit around staying in each other face, starving.
Speaker 9 (03:21):
Y'all don't like.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Each other that much. But I do feel like you
should cook what you can afford.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Yeah, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
You don't got to jump out the window.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
And in this case, that's what she did.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
That's right, Brittany.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
At least you do turkey ground Thanksgiving turkey ground meat.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Jesus, good morning, Brittany. What your thoughts?
Speaker 7 (03:38):
My thoughts is to walk in on Thanksgiving and to
see spaghetti. Uh, that's kind of disrespectful. If she needed help,
she could have asked someone to bring the dish. Everybody
understand that times is hard, but to sit up there
and to just search spaghetti and to not even give
the option to offer to help. If I walk into
spaghetti or Thanksgiving, I'm knocking it over because what is now?
Speaker 1 (03:59):
We fight in how you know?
Speaker 9 (04:00):
Now?
Speaker 1 (04:00):
My mama, Ma, my mama's pagetting when I was fighting.
Speaker 7 (04:03):
We're not fighting nothing. I'm knocking it over because you
should have asked for help. It's about being thankful. It's
a family thing. We also have contributed and came together.
Don't just take it for yourself to ruin everyone's Thanksgiving
because you broke She just.
Speaker 2 (04:16):

Speaker 1 (07:28):
Hello, who's this?
Speaker 8 (07:30):
Hey? This is bribab from.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
What part of South Carolina you call it from?
Speaker 6 (07:37):
Most going for three?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
What's happening?
Speaker 1 (07:40):
I was there last week.
Speaker 8 (07:42):
I know I missed it, but I know, great job.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
So what you think you talk to us?
Speaker 8 (07:49):
So I'm just applying to her for bringing the family together.
Had we the known, I would have run a dollar bread.
Somebody should have brut meat balls or something.
Speaker 9 (07:59):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (08:00):
But the fact that she did that and her family
was together, that's all accounts.
Speaker 7 (08:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (08:04):
But like you're saying, nobody hurting, nobody eating hemp, so
so many left overst what she had to do.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Now, you're absolutely right.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Why did you didn't do a potluck?
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (08:14):
We ain't.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
I'm not just thought about that why didn't do a
pot up?
Speaker 9 (08:16):
Everybody?
Speaker 3 (08:17):
Everybody bring a little dish.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
I literally said that you did the last ten minutes. Yeah,
And I'm like, why you said like ten minutes ago, right, Like,
why didn't.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Just bring food? Like that's dumb?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
He who's this?
Speaker 9 (08:31):
This is Lamar, Lamar?
Speaker 1 (08:32):
What's up? Where you calling them from?
Speaker 9 (08:34):
I'm calling from Jersey?
Speaker 3 (08:35):
All right?
Speaker 1 (08:36):
Talk to us.
Speaker 9 (08:37):
Yeah, be honest with you, Like, if there's no food,
it's different ways you can look at this. If she
cooked the spaghettis from scratch, I'm kind of good with that,
you know what I mean. If she gave me like
Raby oldies or anything like that, then I'm gonna have
to ask questions like are you being funny? Yeah, you
know what I mean? Or maybe you're being creative. I
(08:59):
don't know aving out there, I don't know. You know
what I'm saying. But at the end of the day,
she got some food on the table, that's right, That's right,
And it's about being a thankful for the fact that
she got food on the table.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
That's right.
Speaker 9 (09:13):
I'm with you know what I'm saying. And Christmas is
coming up, so that like you know, November things give
us like the buffer. You don't want to spend too
much money on that holiday. You gotta save all that
for Christmas.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
You gotta get the gifts for Christmas for the kids.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
You're right, I do you feel me?
Speaker 9 (09:27):
So it was like, I'm good, I'm not spending that bread.
I'm spending the bread for Christmas.
Speaker 4 (09:33):
I do wonder why she didn't tell the rest of
the family though she spent five hundred dollars the previous
year and she didn't have it to spend this year.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
Why not just say that?
Speaker 7 (09:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Why not just tell the folks like, hey, man, you know,
things tight. The cost of everything is up.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
That's the only thing.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
So y'all gonna have to chip in, or y'all gonna
have to bring your own dishes if you're gonna have
things giving dinner.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
She should have said something, because I ain't gonna lie
if I walk in the house and I only see spaghetti,
I'm like, yo, damn, I had my mouth set on
turkey wings and all that, like, and you only got spaghetti.
So and must go to her house every year, like
she mustn't be the one that always holdts.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
But she ain't having this year matters?
Speaker 1 (10:05):
If that's a mother in law. Though, you go to
your mother in law's house, you walk in into this spaghetti.
Damn and also too.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
Now you're realizing why those turkey drives and those food
drive is why they mean so much during this time
of year, because people don't be having.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
All right, Well, let's go to one more caller. Hello,
who's this?
Speaker 6 (10:21):
I eat it from North Carolina?
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Hey, I eat it from North Carolina. How you feeling?
Speaker 7 (10:26):
I'm great?
Speaker 6 (10:27):
A couple of works.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Good? Now what's your thoughts? Now you get to you
get to the house. It's only spaghetti there. What you
how you feeling so?
Speaker 6 (10:35):
Yes, I would be upset by the same time. Yes,
groceries do cost money. And then if you really want
me to cook that bad, then just pick in everybody
you know, family coming over, Give me about thirty fifty bucks,
pus family, and I'll make something happen.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
That's right, all right, thank you?
Speaker 6 (10:52):
You welcome your you too.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Now what's the morrol of the story?
Speaker 7 (10:57):
Man?
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Do what you can, but definitely look out for your family.
Help your family. You feel me, don't don't don't.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
Be upset about don't get too upset about it.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Like you said in my opinion, Thanksgiving is about coming together,
you know, like you said, the fellowship. I take both
of what y'all said and put it together. Yeah, it's
about food. It's about the fellowship. It's about the family
and what you're most grateful and thankful for.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
You feel me.
Speaker 4 (11:20):
And if you don't have gratitude, like if you go
to somebody's house and you you like, oh, so you
got a spaghetti, you turn your nose up at it,
You're missing the whole reason for the season. Isn't it
about gratitude?
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Thanks, and not only that, And that's why you know,
in this time of the season, it's always a blessing
to be able to give back. And that's why those
turkey drives, those food drives where people get those fools.
I know a lot of time they be like they
just doing a turkey drive. But as you can see
that that is well needed at times where people can't
afford it. So if you can make sure you do
give back, or even if you just can just go
(11:51):
to those events and be a volunteer as well. And
we got just.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
But yeah, not for real and for real, but also
not the mortar. The story is they could have went
to Golden correl this year. Yeah, this year they did
it the first time doing that where they had Thanksgiving
dinner and it was like discounted crazy turkey, yams, everything
like traditional.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Thanksgiving soul food. They had that.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
So if somebody come to my house, oh yeah, you
only got to seget to take yours down the street.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Because how much you think of because they got everything
there they got, they got.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
And you could have taken and you can take it
to go. You could have took it to go. You
couldn't have sit there.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
I mean you didn't have to sit there if you
didn't want to, but you could have took it to go.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Commercials was all over the place for that.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Wake that ass up in the morning Breakfast Club,
