Speaker 2 (01:13):
I want you to know you and not alone. I'm
here with you, and I hope we're going to have
a great day.

Speaker 4 (01:23):
So today I thought I would go back because so
many of you do not watch the videos that I
post of cooking. I know because they've only gotten eighty views,
one hundred views, two hundred views, whatever. So I thought
today I would assemble all of the videos that I've done,
not all of the videos, but some of the videos
that I've done cooking various foods, because you know, it's

(01:47):
a cooking day, it's Thanksgiving, it's a friend and family day.
Whether you're having healthy alternatives like a Thanksgiving which is
a vegan Thanksgiving, or you've gone full bird or Priberby
or whatever it is, I hope that you're at least
going to enjoy it and have a great day. Or
if you're just eating out, I mean you might be
having you know, I'm going to Crossroads Kitchen later on

(02:10):
with Steve, and I hope that no matter what you're
doing today, you are taking the time to be thankful,
because I am. I am so thankful for you. I'm
thankful for this kitchen. I'm thankful for my home, for
my life from a dog. I'm thankful for so much.
I'm thankful for you guys, of course, and the ability
to record in my kitchen and have a wireless microphone,
and just all the little things that make life. I'm

(02:33):
thankful for this huge refrigerator and every one of these
fabulous knives on the I could murder death, kill somebody
right here, right now.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
Look at that. I got so many of them.

Speaker 4 (02:45):
Will see another one right here, and then another one
right here, and then one of my favorites, because it
really is murder, death killed. And I got serrated ones.
I got pairing no oats, took a magnet with it,
got paring knives. I've got some many Oh on this
filet knife that is so sharp. Do you all have

(03:06):
a knife in your kitchen that you're totally afraid of?
I am afraid of this knife, this knife. Well, I
have all of these sharpened. Where's my iPhone? I can
bring you over here with me. Come here, Come here, everybody,
come hither, Come hither with me.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
I have.

Speaker 4 (03:18):
This is the one knife that I am afraid of.
Right here, this knife I am scared to death of.
Andrew and I bought this while we were fishing, and
he bought it to prep a fish, just scale a fish,
you know, a trout or something that we caught onto
what he was doing, But he bought this knife. Here's
all the knives, do you see them all? Look at
those Look at all those fabulous knives. Scissors and knives.

(03:41):
Isn't that fabulous anyway? So this is the knife that
I'm afraid of. I barely use it because I'm afraid
I'm gonna chop my finger off or something. And I
hate bleeding. Oh my god, do I hate bleeding. I
hate bleeding. I know that's rough in the kitchen because
you're gonna cut yourself sooner or later. I hate it.
Oh my god, I hate it. Anyway, So today on
the show, we're gonna cook, We're gonna talk. We're gonna

(04:04):
you might hear about some past issues, because you know,
when I cook, I talk about issues, So you may
hear about some issues that maybe you're out of the news,
but we're in the news at the time. I just
wanted to bring all these together for you on this
Thanksgiving day, to inspire you, to entertain you. And so
I didn't have to do a full show, so I

(04:26):
can do just the opening segment, have the recipe stuff
I've already done, and go off and have a Thanksgiving
because hey, we all need a holiday too, right, I
was just gonna take today off, but I thought, no,
don't take it off. Just introduce the segment where you're
doing some cooking and maybe they'll learn something, or maybe
they'll just have fun watching, you know, or maybe I'll
turn it off and say, screw you, Correll. I'll come

(04:48):
back on Monday when you're you know, doing a full
show again.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
It's totally up to you. What are you doing watching
me on Thanksgiving? Anyway?

Speaker 4 (04:54):
Why aren't you job having a Thanksgiving on my cue?
So in radio, we have this thing called Q and
over from in November and December. It's what the host
always take vacations. You know why listenership plummets just goes down.
Even regular listeners don't listen as much over the holidays.
And I don't blame you. You don't want to listen,

(05:16):
and no host wants to do a show, trust me. Now,
I used to love filling in. I did because I
made lots of money. I was the filling queen on KG.
I'd fill in for anybody. I'd fill in for Ray
Talia Faroh, which tells you how desperate I was for money,
because that's from one am to five am.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
That's a long, lonely shift.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
But it was fun. Oh the callers we'd get at
that hour, it was great fun. But anyway, so you
know if look, if you're working, if you're blessed to
have a job, good for you. If you're working in
the kitchen, good for you. Don't get in arguments today,
okay if you're out of well, first of all, why
are you having lunch for dinner with anybody that's a
maga anywhere?

Speaker 2 (05:52):
I mean, you know, Oh I can't.

Speaker 4 (05:54):
Hope it prol Yeah you can. I ain't having lunch
or dinner with anyone that's maggie.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
If you visiting really drilled time come daily, you're missing out.
Get the podcast videos and the blug including recipes at
really correll dot com. That's really k A R e
l dot com.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
Show Time is here. No time to fear. Correll is
so near because show time is here. So on with
the show.

Speaker 4 (06:21):
Let's give it a go.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
Correll is the one that you need to know.

Speaker 4 (06:28):
You know, I wanna talk a little about that because
there's a Saturday Night Live skit where Leslie Jones would
come and be your buffer at Thanksgiving, you know, and
they're all sitting around the table and the first thing
someone says is I'm so glad that roe v Wade
got you know, and she's all really that's where how
you're gonna start the Thanksgiving conversation, you know, And it
is how do I say this? Some of you may

(06:50):
have to put up with some horrible people today, right em?

Speaker 2 (06:53):
Right? What do you want to treat? Is that why
you just keep walking around the kitchen? Here? This is
look at this. This is for dog treats. Of course
it is right. It used to bark, but I took
the bat real because the drive me crazy. Here you go,
miss him?

Speaker 4 (07:06):
All right? Some of you have people today that you're
not going to want to talk to. Don't talk to them, Okay,
it's no more about a difference of opinion. And I
just before we go to the other segments, I just
want to say that maybe with Biden or whatever, there
might be differences of this is not a difference of opinion.

(07:26):
Donald Trump is evil. He is a fascist. Maga are
horrible people. They are in fact authoritarians, they're fascists. They
are trying to destroy the company, company, the country, and
the company, and they're doing a damn good job. And
there's no two sides to that. So just don't engage
these people. If they try to talk to you today

(07:47):
at lunch or at dinner and their maga or whatever.
They're going to try to say things to incite you.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
Don't do it. Don't take the bait.

Speaker 4 (07:54):
Don't even talk to him, you know, right, am, don't
even talk to him. Just say nope, not pretend they're
speaking dog, Pretend you just don't understand what there saying. Okay,
bark bark bark, bark, bark, bark, bark, bark bark. You know,
because today is not the day. Today is a day
for family. And if you all can't remember that you
love each other at just one day out of the year,

(08:18):
if you can't let politics just go out the window
one day out of the year, then what's the fricking point? Okay, Yeah,
so she had her sidle points shot yesterday, so she's
not itchy today. So anyway, So don't engage anyone today
that wants to talk politics.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
Just don't talk.

Speaker 4 (08:38):
About Aunt Marge, talk about whatever, talk about the weather,
talk about the boyfriends with the girlfriends or whatever. No politics,
no politics. Let it be a let today and Christmas
be a politic free day. Trump is doing horrible things,
and he's trying to do this Ukraine thing over things whatever.

Speaker 2 (08:58):
Who cares? Who cares. Let it go for today, and.

Speaker 4 (09:02):
If they bring it up, don't engage them. And if
they say stuff that just really makes you want to
punch them in the face, grab your plate, get up
and leave the table. Serious, don't subject yourself today to
anything that you don't want to hear. Don't subject yourself
today to anybody that you don't want to be around.

(09:26):
Maybe in the past that was okay, it's not okay.
Now what they have done is it is reprehensible, it's irredeemable.
It's every adjective you want to use that says they should.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
Not be forgiven.

Speaker 4 (09:39):
Remember, there are people today that still don't have their
snap benefits. There are people today that can't have a
Thanksgiving meal because they didn't get their money from the
government because Congress and the President can't do their fucking jobs.
There are people today who are eating food that came
from a food bank and they're happy to get it

(10:00):
because again, Congress and the rich people that run this
country think that they're the problem and don't want to
give them any money. No, no, don't put up with it.
Move away from the table, go out back, eat alone.
Just don't put up with it. All right, For the

(10:21):
rest of the show, We're gonna cook, We're gonna talk,
We're gonna there's gonna be some old videos, there's gonna
be some new video.

Speaker 2 (10:28):
There's just gonna be you know.

Speaker 4 (10:30):
But and I know some of you right now are saying, yeah,
that's my uncle this or that's my whatever that I
know some of you have to put up with these
people today.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
I don't. I won't. I wouldn't. I wouldn't.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
I turned down an invitation for Thanksgiving because I knew
there would be people there that were maggot and I thought, no,
not gonna do it. Just not not today. Not gonna
subject myself so happy Thanksgiving. For the rest of the show,
I'm just gonna cook and talk. And whether it's old
or new, it doesn't matter. I hope you have a
grand and glorious day. I'll be back on Monday live

(11:04):
at my desk, or maybe I'll be back in the kitchen.
I don't know, but I'll be back on Monday to
you know, talk about the wonders of the world. Yet again,
thank you for everything. Have a great Thanksgiving, and.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
Now let's get to the kitchen.

Speaker 4 (11:17):
Everybody, Come on, okay's in the kitchen.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
So all is well.

Speaker 4 (11:22):
Hey, I'm Corell, the planted host. Welcome to my kitchen.
You know, sometimes when I'm around the house for lunch,
it gets late. Look it's twelve fifty six, see that
it's late for lunch, and I'm hungry and i want Mediterranean,
but I'm too cheap to go buy it, and it's
just always better when you make it at home. Well,
I'm going to take the shortcut on some things, but
I'm going to show you how you can whip up
a quick Mediterranean lunch, a falafel, hummus and salad, probably

(11:45):
an under thirty minutes hopefully, and deliciousness with just a
little prep. Okay, first of all, look at this. They
sell Falawful.

Speaker 2 (11:53):
Mix in the store.

Speaker 4 (11:54):
Nor I love the brand, Nor they make many things.
So with that Falawful Mix, all you have to do
is put a third cup of water, couple tablespoons a
third cup plus two tablespoons of water, and you mix
it together. And you're gonna want to let it set
for at least ten minutes, so just mix it together
and you don't have to do the mix. It's really
just chickpeas and spices. That's what that flaffel is chickpeas

(12:15):
and spices. But if you do the mix, it takes
out some of the time you have to spend. Then
you're gonna want to get a pan. Okay, we're not
to the hummus yet. You're gonna want to get a
pan and some vegetable oil, and you're gonna want to
start that heating because you want hot oil to cook
your hummus in. And that pan is not gonna work

(12:36):
for me. To just see what happened, that pan does
went like that, not doing hot oil.

Speaker 2 (12:41):
That way, So the all clad goes away.

Speaker 4 (12:43):
The cowfulon steps in. We get our vegetable oil from
our pantry high pantry high vegetable oil. So well, I
just use all the vegetable oil I guess I will.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
How much vegetable oil should I use? Corel Oh about
that much? About an inch in the pan? Okay?

Speaker 4 (13:00):
What every pen you use put about an inch of
oil in it? Okay, so well that sits here. Hello,
you know we've done over here in our pressure cooker,
which everybody needs to have, whether it's an insta pop.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
Or a pressure cooker.

Speaker 4 (13:11):
I used to queens an art an hour ago. These
were hard chickpeas.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
An hour ago.

Speaker 4 (13:16):
These were in the bag from the bulk store at
wind Cote chickpeas, and now they are marvelously cooked chickpeas.

Speaker 2 (13:23):
Because I put four cups of water and one.

Speaker 4 (13:26):
Cup of chickpeas in the pressure cooker with two tablespoons
of oil. What you get left is this is aqua faba.
You save this and use this to make meringues and
all kinds of stuff. This is pure approaching, kind of
like egg whites. It's aqua faba. So save that and
take your two and a half cups of garbonzo beans.
Because guess what, one cup of dry garbonzo beans after

(13:49):
you go in here turns into two magical cups, two
and a half magical cups. So you're gonna take two
and a half magical cups of garbonzo beans. And what
are you gonna do with it? You're gonna take a
tablespoon of fresh parsley, some garlic, a quarter cup of tahini,
one teaspoon salt, two tablespoons of lemon water, a quarter

(14:09):
cup of olive oil. That, of course will be on
the website. I scratch everything in my kitchen. Tahini, you say, Corral,
what is tahini? Where do I get tihini? Why would
I have tihini? Tahini is just ground up sesame seeds.
It's all it is. I buy it, you can buy it.

Speaker 2 (14:24):
You don't have to buy it.

Speaker 4 (14:25):
You can make it. And I'll just get some sesame
seeds and toast them and bam, you got your tihini.
And I'm going to take the rest of those ingredients.
We're going to wiz them around in there and make hummus,
and then we're going to fry up the falafel balls,
which I'll show you as I do that. Okay, on
your mark, get set cook. Okay, So at twelve fifty
six I had nothing. I just had some garbonzo beans

(14:46):
that I had made in the pressure cooker, which you
should have on hand anyway. It is now one twenty five,
all right, so now I have that. What that is
is a salad with three kinds of le carrots, cucumbers, strawberries.
We have pecans, we have crasins, we have I'm sure

(15:09):
I'm forgetting some deliciousness that's in there. We have the
homemade falaffel and the homemade hummus.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
And it's all right there, and it's all ready for me.

Speaker 4 (15:18):
And that at a restaurant would be fifteen to twenty bucks,
it really would. And I'm going to have it with
some homemade iced tea, so bonappa tea. That's my friend.
Julia Child would say, I am kral B. Who you
want to be sald and hurt anybody, especially yourself. The
dishwasher is running, the sink is clean, food process are

(15:40):
put away, stove is done, everything else is done. All
the pots and pants put away. And it's what it is.
Two to one, so about an hour, about an hour
to make hummus from scratch, falafel, salad. I have leftovers of.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
All of it.

Speaker 4 (15:58):
It could be a meal for someone else. No excuse
not to get into your kitchen, no excuse to not
cook for yourself, no excuse to not eat better. I
am Corel, the planted host. Yes, it just got dark
because when I get out my kitchen, honey, I get
out my kitchen.

Speaker 2 (16:11):
Okay, alrighty, it.

Speaker 4 (16:12):
Is the crowd cast, and I am Carill and I'm
so very glad you are joining me today. We're going
to be in the kitchen talking topics from Trump on
Trial to TikTok bands. But I'm also going to be
showing you. As you know, avian flu is in the
news right now. All kinds of chickens have been infected,
and now cows and cow's milk is being affected unpasteurized

(16:35):
cow's milk. Although they have found the virus in pasteurized milk,
they're just saying that that virus is probably dead because
it got pasteurized. However, as you know, I am a
vegan and I don't have to deal with any of that.
So today, while we talk topics, I'm going to show
you how to first make your own egg substitute and
then how to make a key shout of that, and

(16:56):
to do that. First of all, for the egg substitute
to have one cup of mung beans, we are going
to have two cups of soy milk. We're going to
have a quarter cup of Oh let me get it
out of the sorry for moving away from the camera
that I forgot.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
I'm going to be using earth.

Speaker 4 (17:14):
Balance that I melted. The recipe calls for oil, However,
earth balance is mostly oil and it has a little
butterly buttery flavor, so it we'll be good. So we're
going to use a quarter cup of earth balance, which
is oil basically, and then we're going to use a
quarter cup of nutritional yeast. We're going to use a

(17:36):
half a teaspoon of garlic powder, a half a teaspoon
of smoked paprika, two tablespoons of baking powder as a
caking agent, and then one teaspoon of salt and the
magic ingredient, which is columnolic, which is black sea salt.
It tastes of sulfur, it tastes like egg, and all
of that's going to go in here, and it's going

(17:57):
to make your just egg because just egg is too
expensive in the store. Will it be just like just egg?
It will not because they use a mung bean isolate.
These are mung beans better known as moon moong doll dahl,
and those are.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
Our ingredients for the just egg.

Speaker 4 (18:16):
And then for the keish, we're gonna use as much
spintage as you want, some golden peppers, some plant based chariso,
and some mushrooms.

Speaker 2 (18:25):
Now we're going to.

Speaker 4 (18:26):
A store bought cut pie because I'm just tired of
making my pies. So that's store bought dough. You can
make your own out of flour and butter. Vegan butter
or you can just buy a storebot one and all
of this today is going to turn into a just
egg imitation kish which you can then serve on the

(18:47):
weekends for breakfast. So where I'm gonna get that going,
and then we're gonna come back and we're gonna talk topics.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
Okay, okay, all right, we are here.

Speaker 4 (18:56):
Is out of the oven. It baked for an hour
at three seventy five and then fifteen minutes at four
twenty five. I've made a delicious salad out of garbanzos
and blueberries and celery and tomato and pine nuts and
cabbage and lettuce and all kinds of great things.

Speaker 2 (19:14):
And Ember and I.

Speaker 4 (19:16):
My little girl, there you go, are gonna have a
great lunch. So in the words of I Think, I'll
be julia Lovechild, Julia's love child. That'll be my name,
Julia's love child. In the words of Julia's love Child.
Bonapp a tea.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
Let's see, this is fresh out of the oven. It's
probably too hot to eat. Oh oh.

Speaker 4 (20:24):
Hi everyone, and welcome to the agony of lunchtime.

Speaker 2 (20:28):
Now.

Speaker 4 (20:28):
First of all, I am so blessed. And if you
have choices in your life as to what you're gonna
eat and when you're gonna eat it, you are blessed.
To counter your blessings. But I always argue, do I
go out to eat?

Speaker 2 (20:38):
Do I stay home?

Speaker 4 (20:40):
I buy food? So and it's so expensive to go out.
So today I'm like, well, what am I gonna do?

Speaker 2 (20:45):
I'm hungry.

Speaker 4 (20:46):
I don't want to do a big elaborate thing.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
What am I gonna do?

Speaker 4 (20:49):
So the first thing I did was took some jasmine
rice and put it in my Queasin Art the queens
and Art pressure cooker. Uh, so I can have quick rice.
It makes it in my five minutes. I've got the
ninja going, and that's gonna be for the veggies. And
over here, what we've got going on over here is,

(21:10):
oh look at all those veggies. We've got carrots, we've
got mushrooms, we've got broccoli, we've got cauliflower, green peppers, eggplant,
buck choi, and tofu, oh and spinach, and we're gonna
put that with this tasty bit I just tasty bite

(21:30):
vegan coconut corma sauce I found on sale at Sprouts,
and then we're going to put that over the rice
and that's gonna be lunch, and it will be delicious
and healthful and fabulous. So it's basically just that's one carrot,
a small amount of broccoli, small amount of mushrooms, small
amount like half a red or green pepper, very like

(21:51):
a quarter head of cauliflower, a quarter of an eggplant,
two stalks of bakchoi, and one third of a package
of tofu. So that's what we have there, and then
a handful of spinach and the rice. I used a
quarter a cup of rice in here with just three
quarter cups of water, and we'll get that. So let's

(22:12):
see how it turns out, shall we. So first things first,
we're gonna put some trusty oil in the ninja here,
good glug of oil. Just put all those veggies in there,
put the tofu in first to brown it. So in
goes to tofu to brown, and then the rest of
the vegetables, cook them down, put in the sauce, call

(22:33):
it a day. Could that be any easier? I mean,
I don't know, you know, I mean I did have
to chop chop, chop, chop, chop chop. Who makes a
lovely noise, isn't it? Okay, the tofu is brown, It's

(22:56):
time to add the other veggies. Start with the take
a little longer the broccoli, the cauliflower, the carrots, and
then add the back troy and the spinach. Okay, so
just throw them all in there. Put it all in there, honey,
get her going. Oh, let's just put it all here.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
We go.

Speaker 4 (23:21):
Look at that yummy, yummy. So I just added about
a quarter cup of veggie stock to the veggies so
we could get some steam going in there. And then
I'll add the Karma sauce that I bought, and some
coconut milk, just because canned coconut milk, by the way,
not like not the one you buy to drink, but

(23:44):
canned coconut milk along with the Karma sauce.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
And that'll be lunch.

Speaker 4 (23:49):
You know, I'm really bunned. I don't have any peas.
I don't have any frozen peas, but oh well, here
it is. It's like, get ready for the sauce. That's fabulous.
The rice is done and the sauce is store bought.
So I'm gonna dump this in and then I'm gonna
put milk, coconut milk in here and swish it about
and put that in and then we're gonna warm it up.

Speaker 2 (24:10):
And that's it.

Speaker 4 (24:11):
We're done. Okay, see now to clean that out. We
got the coconut milk. By the way, do y'all have
one of these still? Thank you, Randal, I have one
thanks to a listener and a viewer named Randall.

Speaker 2 (24:31):
All right, so we're.

Speaker 4 (24:32):
Gonna put some milk in there, shake it about and
do the hokey pokey in the kitchen. How many of
you do the hokey pokey in your kitchen as you
shake it all about, shake it all about. How many
of you make a really big mess when you do
that with one hand and while holding a camera. Okay, go.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
Now, let's just stir it up.

Speaker 4 (24:57):
Stir it up. There. It is veggie quarma, just like
I went to the Indian restaurant.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
Let me get the rice, let me get this going,
and we have lunch. All right.

Speaker 4 (25:14):
I have tasted this already and it is restaurant quality.
We have about three quarter cup of rice in there,
and there's the veggie quarma. Looks good, tastes good. We're
gonna scoop it up. That's two servings, by the way,
only because of the sauce. The sauce is where all
the calories are. There's no calories and the veggies really,
the tofu's got minimal, but the sauce have a lot

(25:36):
of calories and the coconut milk. So as long as
you don't overdo on the sauce, you should be good.
Let's scoop it up, shall we? Here we go all right?
Oh my god, that just looks so good. Oh once,
look at that. And yes, I have already cleaned up

(25:58):
most of stuff. Alright, I'm gonna have lunch bone app
of tea. Okay, the most important part of lunch is
Ember's bone, which I make from scratch, and I'm gonna
give you the recipes. And then here we have the
vegan veggie korma, and let's take a taste. Oh well,

(26:23):
my Indian restaurant might lose some business if I keep
cooking this up.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
That's delicious.

Speaker 4 (26:27):
In a little girl, She's like, yeah, where's my bone,
aren't you? She's looking outside for a bird that she
just chased off the balcony. No bird, So there it is,
see there, it is all right. Never eat alone. I
am corel have a lovely breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
Eleven fifty five. That means it's lunchtime.

Speaker 4 (26:48):
And I was born to be alive by patri Canandez
plays in the background. I have cooked a sweet potato,
how about that? And then over here I have cooked
some at Zuki beans at Zuki I ain't swearing baby

Speaker 2 (27:18):
You'll get it a minute.

Speaker 4 (27:19):
It is so appropriate that Donna Summers I Feel Love
is playing in the background.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
Because I love the way that Zukie beans came out.
I love them.

Speaker 4 (27:28):
They're red and gorgeous, and just look at them. At
Zukie Baby say it with a zupe.

beet juice, you heard me right, with some garlic, with
a slice of homemade sour dough bread, with some nutritional

Speaker 4 (28:16):
Who am I?

Speaker 2 (28:16):
What is going on here? Flood? It's the color of blood.

Speaker 4 (28:23):
You want it to be a paste, by the way,
a paste you can make it to a PADDI a
paste you can make it to a patte.

Speaker 2 (28:30):
Added a little corn meal, and we.

Speaker 4 (28:33):
Got ourselves a thick, thick paste.

Speaker 2 (28:36):
Added some corn meal to make a little thick. So
we're gonna roll that in bread crumb to make.

Speaker 4 (28:42):
A patty out of its gonna make a patty, baby,
gonna make a paddle.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
Don't know if it's going to work. Or off.

Speaker 4 (28:54):
But since I don't need eggs, I took my egg
old egg cookers, turn them outside down.

Speaker 2 (28:58):
I'm gonna put the paste on top of the bread
crumbs to make my patties.

Speaker 4 (29:02):
Baby a feline sings a Christmas song in July, because
why not? We might not make it at this way
they're gone. They almost look like Hamburger patties. What the hell,
I'm a vegan. They kind of look like Hamburger, don't they. Now,
Let's see if they hold up, pulled together, pull through
on over here, we got some French fries that I

(29:22):
have made. I've cut myself out of a Yukung gold
and some cauliflower, and I'm going to drizzle some provincial
style infused high sapflower.

Speaker 2 (29:32):
Oil on it.

Speaker 4 (29:35):
And then put some other spices and some corn starch
and then put it in there and the brava along
with the burger patties and air fry them. That's what's
happening here, honey, air fry, do you hear me? Hair
Bryan member has got her favorite treat from her favorite
little store called Snooty Pods. It's a Turkey burger and

(29:56):
I have bam and it's zuki beanburger covered in barbecue sauce,
with air fried French fries and some cauliflower that's been
air fried. And it's all right there with some delicious

and Ember's got her dish.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
And we about to eat lunch. Baby.

Speaker 4 (30:14):
Bam, that's how you made a vegan lunch that is tasty, delicious.
And I have ten burgers, nine minus that one, so
I have nine frozen leftover burgers, So nine more lunches
like that, just from what I did here today. Yeah,
I ain't gonna say, bam, that belongs to somebody else.
I ain't gonna snap that belongs to somebody else. I'm
just gonna say, litze. It ain't but a few seconds

(30:36):
later and miss Ember is done with hers, But honey,
I'm mowing through mine.

Speaker 2 (30:40):

Speaker 4 (32:13):
And Brell and welcome to the Planted Host, your partner
in Surviving and Thriving. Six Minute Edition. I am going
to share something incredibly tasty with you, so don't go away.
And here's the reason why this weekend we turned back down. Yes,
we fell back an hour. And one of the number
one stories online right now is not all of the
impeachment and all of that. It's actually how to beat

(32:36):
seasonal affectional disorder SAD. It's called and it's called this appropriately.
When the time changes, a lot happens to us that
actually isn't good. It's why a lot of places are
actually saying we should not probably change the time. Men
were at more risk for heart attacks today Monday. Following
the time change, car accidents go up today, all kinds
of things, but more importantly, the holiday blues begin. Winter

(32:59):
fish begins December twenty first. However, basically for most people,
it begins when the time changes.

Speaker 2 (33:04):
Fall is falling quickly. Winter is rapidly approaching.

Speaker 4 (33:08):
Here in America right now, we have an impeachment battle raging.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
In fact, they're releasing pages and pages of transcripts.

Speaker 4 (33:15):
That's why I'm going to show you the most delicious
recipe here in just a minute, to help you get
rid of your seasonal affectional disorder and to put on
delicious things as you're paging through all those pages of
the impeachment transcripts so you can stay well read.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
But sad is very real. I suffer from it. You
might too. It's dark like all the time.

Speaker 4 (33:35):
Literally, the sunrise starts at six fifteen in the morning
here and it gives start at four forty five. That's
like ten hours of light out of twenty four that's
fourteen hours of dark. So that does play with your brain. Okay,
unless you live in Seattle, then you just always gray.
So because it does play with your brain, I wanted
to try to help you through it.

Speaker 2 (33:51):
Now.

Speaker 4 (33:51):
There's a few things you can do to not be
depressed over this holiday season. First of all, pick a finger.
Second of all, you can write now November fourth, three
days prior to my birthday, which is Thursday. By the way,
is my birthday, I will be five point seven years old.
I don't ag I upgrade. I will be five point
seven on Thursday. I'm so excited about that. Actually my birthday,

(34:15):
Dangle's coming. His mother just passed away, but he's still
coming to town.

Speaker 2 (34:17):
Very exciting.

Speaker 4 (34:19):
Anyway, I'm so sorry, see that I just got off track,
because anyway, seasonal effectual disorder I do suffer. There's some
things you can do I have Hugh lighting in my house.
If you don't have Hugh lighting, you can still set
a timer and wake up to light. Don't wake up
in the dark. Okay, that's not good. So if you
have to go out to bed for work or for
whatever reason at five or five thirty in the morning,

(34:39):
have a light on when you wake up.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
And it doesn't have to be uberly bright. It just
have a light on when you wake up.

Speaker 4 (34:46):
That, of course will help you get going in the morning,
because we are affected by light, light and dark our
circadian rhythm. Second of all, get in the sunshine more
as much as you can get in the sunshine even
more right now.

Speaker 2 (34:58):
It's very important.

Speaker 4 (34:59):
And eat good food because over the winter you're going
to try to carbo load, and I don't want you
to turn into little gorditas between now and the new
year and then have to worry about it because even
plant based eaters get fat ass boot up.

Speaker 2 (35:11):
So, with that being said.

Speaker 4 (35:12):
And with seasonal sad being the number one story outside
of the impeachment, which what do I have to say
about that? He should already be thrown out of office. I
don't want to hear anything about him. I don't want
to hear anything until they're throwing him in jail. That's
what I want to hear. He needs to go to jail, and.

Speaker 2 (35:25):
If he wins.

Speaker 4 (35:26):
In twenty twenty, we are a sad country, it is
a sad state, and we're going to need the pumpkin
butter that I'm about to show you how to make
even more, because this week is going to be about
really simple recipes that you can make that are plant based,
that are going to make you feel better so you
don't have sad. So how many of you have seen
right now in the store very cheape, hundred percent pure pumpkin.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
I want you to buy some.

Speaker 4 (35:43):
I want you to buy at least a fifteen ounce can,
but go ahead and get a thirty ounce can, because
what you're going to make is pumpkin butter. How many
of you love pumpkin butter. How many of you forget it?
How many of you never had it? You should make some.
Here's what you do. The recipe is going to be
at the end of this for those of you that subscribe,
but quickly. It is just one hundred percent pure pumpkin,
maple syrup, apple juice, lemon juice, brown sugar, oh yes,

(36:04):
and then some pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon, ginger.

Speaker 2 (36:08):
Clothes and nutmeg, and that's it.

Speaker 4 (36:11):
And you cook it for twenty minutes on top of
the stove, and then you put it in the refrigerator
and then you pull it out of the refrigerator for
a big reveal on your big talk show because you've
already pre made the pumpkin butter and it's delicious and
marvelous and it tastes yummy, and oh, let's get some
of my finger m m. Now say you can smear
this on a variety of things, including your best lover.

(36:33):
I save jars, by the way, that's how I recycle,
So you can smear that on a variety of things
and get rid of your seasonal And when you cook it,
you're gonna fill the house with the smell of pumpkin
and cinnamon and the holidays, and it's going to make
you feel better. Okay, so cooking this actually makes you
feel better. That's why I wanted to do it today,

(36:54):
because the number one story online right now outside of
impeachment is how to beat the holiday blue. This week,
we're gonna talk about setting realistic budgets, so you don't
go over spend on the holidays because the recession is coming.
The Feds have dropped the interest rates yet again. So
we're gonna talk about that, and we're gonna make some
delicious plant based recipes that are really super easy and

(37:16):
delicious that you can have over the holiday season starting now,
because November my birthday's Thursday. The holidays are upon us,
and you can have them in your fridge and have
them on hand for people when they come by, including
this delicious pumpkin butter, which now I can throw on anything,
some toast that I can make in my Brava oven
in just three minutes and bam, they'll think I'm so fabulous.

Speaker 4 (38:05):
Okay, some very quick and easy pumpkin butter that we
are going to make here at Maisomboulet kitchen. First, we're
gonna start with thirty ounces of one under pure pumpkin,
not pie filling, but pure pumpkin. That is two thirds
cup right there, two thirds cup of brown sugar. And that,
of course, as you can see, is a half a
cup of maple syrup, uh, and a quarter cup I'm sorry,

(38:26):
half a cup of apple juice and a quarter cup
of maple syrup. So a quarter cup of maple syrup,
half a cup of unsweetened apple juice. And you're gonna
use a tablespoon of pumpkin pie spice. You're gonna put
it in there, and you're gonna let it cook, and
you're gonna have pumpkin butter in twenty minutes, eat that something.
And of course you don't forget a tablespoon of lemon juice.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
All right.

Speaker 4 (38:47):
We've put in the lemon juice and the pumpkin pie spice,
and now we're just gonna let that simmer for twenty
minutes and then cool down and bam, pumpkin butter. Ain't
that easy, all right?

Speaker 2 (38:56):
As you can see, it's changing colors.

Speaker 4 (38:58):
It's cooking down. It's delicious. It's gonna cinnamon and the pumpkin, pies, spies,
maple syrup, brown sugar, apple juice, and of course the
pumpkin and the house smells wonderful and it smells like
the holidays, and it smells delicious, and it just makes
you feel better. Birds good today, and the white background

Speaker 6 (39:19):
Thank you, appreciate it very much. We're here again for
this gay week about you, and so today.

Speaker 4 (39:28):
To day, tell me you follow Carter. Tell me you
follow Carter Cooking with Carter Cooking. This eight year old
or whatever he is, he's already mega famous and.

Speaker 6 (39:42):
He's, oh, this is someone else cooking.

Speaker 4 (39:46):
With Carter, and he starts every video with today. He's
got a million followers, he's got endorsement deals. He's like
nine eight, possibly seven.

Speaker 6 (39:58):
That's crazy. It's the YouTube chair, six hundred and forty
five thousand TikTok.

Speaker 4 (40:04):
Followers and a million on Instagram. Amazing he cooks Carter,
he certainly does.

Speaker 6 (40:13):
Okay, get down the million day.

Speaker 2 (40:18):
We're going to.

Speaker 4 (40:19):
Make that kid's gonna have his own show by the
time he's ten. You I'm telling you, right, now, so today,
on this great Gay Week, we're going to start with
an oxymoron, if you will, from the moron in chief
of the United States of America.

Speaker 6 (40:37):
The infringement on human rights that are the complete opposite
of what are defined as such.

Speaker 4 (40:44):
Well, basically, according to reporting that is going on around
the world from the State Department, there are new US
rules going into play that say countries with diversity policies,
the countries that recognize diversity are actually infringing on human rights.

(41:06):
So again we are in the theater of the absurd.
Or the US President who yesterday called for the death
of Democrats that told people not to follow illegal orders,
which seems pretty self explanatory. Don't follow an illegal order,
but whatever, you know. And of course he's worried that
the Epstein files, but they're never going to come out,
by the way, just as an aside, because he launched

(41:29):
an investigation the Friday before the vote, which means that
they don't release any files if there's an ongoing investigation,
and there is because he launched it. So I doubt
that those documents will be forthcoming.

Speaker 2 (41:43):
As far as I know.

Speaker 4 (41:44):
No gay people in it, no, no, no trafficking of
young boys. Epstein obviously was just one gender kind of guy.
But new rules are saying that, and let me get this,
let me perfectly right, Countries enforcing race or gender diversity,
equity and inclusion DEI will now be at risk of

(42:04):
the Trump administration deeming them as infringing on human rights.
The State Department issued new rules, new rules like Bill
mahar to all US embassies and consulates involved in compiling
its annual report. The instructions deemed countries that subsidize abortion
or facilitate mass migration as also infringing on human rights.

(42:27):
That means Ireland, France, Canada.

Speaker 6 (42:33):
The United States.

Speaker 4 (42:34):
Basically, yes, that are now infringers. The changes, which the
State Department says are intended to stop quote destructive ideologies,
because somehow racial and gender equity, diversity and inclusion is
a destructive ideology, have been condemned by rights campaigners who
argue that Trump administration is redefining long established human rights

(42:58):
principles to pursue his idea geological goals and force those
on other nations. Well know, shit, it's a huge shift
in Washington, and it's a huge shift in our state
departments foreign policy and how they treat other countries. A
senior State Department official said the new rules were quote
a tool to change the behavior of governments. So Donald

(43:21):
Trump is trying to change the behavior of governments who
do not agree with his anti DEI policies, and he
is doing that by labeling them as infringers of human rights.
I am open to discussion about how this story makes

(43:42):
any kind of sense, but nothing. As an American, I
will tell you nothing has made sense in eleven months now,
So I mean, this is just more. Zazaiah, former senior
State Department official who runs the charity Human Rights First,
said the Trumpet meaninistration was weaponizing international human rights for

(44:04):
domestic partisan ends. Again, no shit. Now will other countries
respond to this? Will they care? Will it change anything
in their relations with the United States? We don't know
that yet. In other words, we don't know if there's
going to be some financial risk or some other risk

(44:25):
once they're labeled as infringers of human rights. But we'll see.
I don't think Canada or Ireland, or France or the
UK or any civilized nations are going to change their
DEI policies that their people accept based on what Donald

(44:45):
Trump wants and given that he is unraveling here quickly
and his party is distancing themselves from him every day.
He did not get the Epstein vote that he wanted.
He wanted them blocked, but senators said no Democrats won
in the last election we had a few weeks back,
he called for an end of the filibuster and told

(45:06):
his party to end the filibuster.

Speaker 2 (45:08):
They did not.

Speaker 4 (45:10):
So there's a lot of things that have watched him unravel.
And his approval rating is the lowest of any seated
US president in history, it's in recent history. It's down
to thirty four percent, which means basically, I don't know.
The Confederacy has a higher approval rating, which we could
go into how the Coast Guard yesterday was instructed that

(45:33):
swastika's Confederate flags and nooses were no longer hate speech
and no longer banned from the Coastguard. However, overnight there
was an enormous backlash from both parties, and so today
today they reinstated the policy that says, yes, those are hate.

(45:55):
You think you think a swastika might be considered a
piece of hate. His approval rating is at an all
time low, His party is more and more. I mean
he lost Marjorie Taylor Green. I mean, how low can
you get?

Speaker 2 (46:07):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (46:08):
So will other countries also respond in kind? Meaning will
they just ignore him? Now?

Speaker 2 (46:14):
We'll see.

Speaker 4 (46:16):
But a story that comes out that says new US
rules are labeling countries with DEI as infringing on human rights,
it just boggles the mind how that story could even
be written.

Speaker 2 (46:29):
Right.

Speaker 6 (46:29):
Yeah, And the tway Point Peace Plan as an analogy
has been a point of even further isolation from the
European continent, so outs Russia so generally speakings and.

Speaker 4 (46:44):
This morning, this morning it was announced that his Ukrainian
peace plan that most I was watching DBC and most
European countries are not going for it because they say, look,
you're giving Vladimir Putin everything he wants.

Speaker 2 (46:58):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (46:59):
But that's, of course because you know, their buddies in
a very special kind of way, broke back Moscow. So
the next story we reported on this a little bit
in terms of Manchester Pride not being able to pay
their bills.

Speaker 2 (47:16):
Well, another one party in the Park.

Speaker 4 (47:19):
It was scheduled to take place at Trinity Park in
Ipswich in the UK in July. It promised to line
up over one hundred stalls and food and entertainment and
funfair rides. Right before it launched they pulled the plug.
They said, hey, they didn't have the funding that they
thought they were going to get, and there was other

(47:39):
reasons they pulled the plug. However, they left all of
the vendors and artists stranded. So they are now the
second festival to do this. Manchester Pride did it, and
now Party in the Park in Trinity Park in Ipswich
is doing it. Sam Arbah was the founder. The BBC
content him to ask if the money he had been

(48:01):
paid would be refunded and he simply said, we prefer
not to discuss it.

Speaker 6 (48:06):
I'll take that. And a lot of these vendors like
this are for the most part regular people, so a thousands,
yes pounds or euros is a significant hunk of money
for the month, right absolutely.

Speaker 4 (48:23):
And as an entertainer myself, I will tell you if
you've booked a gig and the gig is going to
pay you fifteen hundred pounds or euros whatever, you know, whatever,
and then that gig just reneggs right at the just
right then and there a in July, which is a
peak season for LGBTQ entertainers. You've already said no to
other gigs to go do this gig. It's too late

(48:45):
then to rebook a gig that close to the event.
So you've just lost that money and they are not honorant.
Graham Thurston, who sounds like someone from a sitcom. He
is the events and the state manager at Trinity Park.
He said the event was canceled when the outstanding balance
required to pay the venue was not paid. Typically, when

(49:06):
you book an event at a venue, you give them
fifty percent up front, fifty percent either right before the
date and that way it's the.

Speaker 2 (49:14):
Because venues get them money. They don't.

Speaker 4 (49:15):
They do not mess around. And so he probably did
a deposit to book the date and then the venue
was going to collect prior, you know, prior to the
date happening, and he didn't have the money. While ticket
holders were understood to be able to get their money back,
traders who have paid anywhere from one hundred to one
thousand euros to have a plot were not. And like

(49:37):
you said, you go there, you pay a thousand euros
because you hope you're going to make five thousand or
ten thousand, you know, at your booth. So not only
are you out the income that you would get, you're
out the thousand euros for the spot. And a lot
of these people rent tents, rent equipment, all of that.

Speaker 5 (49:55):
So it is a very very sad thing.

Speaker 4 (49:58):
It's the second big to not pay and it's part
of an alarming trend that's going on.

Speaker 6 (50:06):
When did you let's see this sort of in through
Western context.

Speaker 4 (50:13):
You know, it's this last year actually since Trump took office.
Prior to that, either LGBTQ organizations didn't make the commitments
to the artists, meaning they just told artists, we can't
pay you if you want to come and perform, come
and perform. But oh, they paid the top two or

(50:35):
three artists, the big ones, like let's say RuPaul was
doing although she doesn't really do Pride, but let's say
Grace Jones who does Pride festivals. So they would pay
Grace and then maybe a couple artists under Grace, and
then everyone else is just expected to donate their time
because they're gay, and don't you want to donate your
time to the festival. So festivals in America A don't

(50:57):
normally make that kind of commitment and be up until
Trump had the funds to pay the artist because of
DEI funding and grants and other things. Once Trump took
office and that money immediately drive up. It didn't go
in a trickle. Corporations the minute Trump took office, as
we've discussed, they saw that they didn't have to didn't

(51:19):
pay to be nice to the gays anymore. So they
just cut their money immediately, and several pride organizations here
in the United States had to either cancel their festivals
or scale them back, or tell the entertainers they just
can't pay them. They did tell them in advance, though
they did not just the day of go oops, guess what.
So that's the difference. But in America this has happened

(51:41):
since Trump. I don't know that in the UK if
this is happening because of Trump, but as we see,
he is trying to export his hatred and I think
some of it is sticking. I was gonna send you
a story I did not about another African nation, of
which there are now thirty that are anti gay, and

(52:04):
I saw an incredible small documentary on how Africa did
not used to be anti gay. Everyone thinks that Africa
was always no Actually most African nations didn't care. A,
they had bigger fish to fy and B it just
really wasn't on their radar. They didn't get that involved

(52:25):
in the sex lives of the people that live there. However,
the religious right in this country, for the last thirty
years in America has spent a lot of money exporting
their hatred to other countries, sending people over, making financial investments,
paying people to be anti gay, paying governments to be

(52:47):
anti gay. So evangelicals and other anti gay people in America,
the authors of Project twenty five included, have very much
exported their hatred to African nations, and it was a
concerted effort.

Speaker 3 (53:01):
It was.

Speaker 4 (53:02):
It was not just happenstance. They decided years ago that
they wanted African nations to be anti gay, and now
they are. Most of them turned that way because it
was profitable for them to do so, not because their
people were. Typically Africans are not anti gay. The average

(53:23):
rank and file African, However, they're government's totally different story. So, yes,
that was that's not good. Let's go to Ireland, shall we.
I love Ireland? Been there many times enough. Burke is
returning to prison. Who is this man? You say?

Speaker 2 (53:42):
Well, he's an Irish teacher and he's got the JK.

Speaker 4 (53:46):
Rowlings disease. He's got a real problem with trans people
and so he and members of his family, by the way,
according to Justice Kregan and Ireland have engaged in a deliberate,
sustained and concerned to attack on the authority of civil
courts and the rule of law.

Speaker 2 (54:03):
And how why has he done this?

Speaker 4 (54:05):
Because mister Burke was told to stay away from this school.
He's refused to obey a court order to not trespass
at Wilson's Hospital School in County Westmeath for three years.
He was told do not go back to the school
for three years, and the court described his actions as
a fanatical campaign. He was dismissed from the school for

(54:28):
gross misconduct arising out of his refusal to obey a
direction of the school that a transgendered pupil be addressed.
They then this was the hill he chose to die on.
He would not address this.

Speaker 2 (54:41):
Student as day.

Speaker 4 (54:41):
Then he did not recognize being transgendered as real, and
subsequently they said, look, that's gross misconduct. He also committed
it out of school religious service and other events in
the manner to which he conducted his objections to transgenderism,
so he would go to school, religious services or other

(55:03):
events and very vocally, boisterously and obnoxiously object to transgenderism,
accepting transgendered and willfully would miss pronoun people who were transgendered.
He has been fined about two hundred and twenty five
Irish pounds, which is one hundred and ninety eight thousand

(55:23):
British pounds in fines, of which he has paid about
forty thousand due to his teacher's salary being diverted to
pay his fines, and he said that The justice said
that despite his time in prison and despite the fines,
he still persistent paying.

Speaker 2 (55:39):
In disobeying the court order.

Speaker 4 (55:40):
He's like the Donald Trump of Ireland soil. In August
twenty twenty five, members of his family confronted the chair
of the Education Authority and the court didn't take Conny
to that either. He is a transferb he is trying
to promote his transphobic agenda and the courts of Ireland
are trying to stop him and more importantly keep him

(56:01):
away from this school where he has created so much
of a ruckus, and he just refuses. He refuses to
stay away. He refuses to stop with all the anti
trans stuff. So they're like, okay and have a good
time back in jail. Next, I wish we could jail
all transphones.

Speaker 2 (56:18):
By the way, I would enjoy that. So I watch
a lot.

Speaker 4 (56:24):
I watch a lot a lot of Law and Order
SVU because I love Marishka Harkitay. And one of the
themes on that show is that men can be raped,
and this is something that is often not talked about
because even more than women, there's a much bigger stigma.

(56:45):
If a man is raped a they say, well, how
can you rape a guy if he gets excited? We
both know that's a biological response. You cannot want to
have sex and still get excited because someone's doing something
to you doesn't mean you're enjoying it. It just means
your body responding to stimulus. Also, men, of course can
be raped in the other side, and they can be

(57:08):
victims of sexual assault. Maybe not a full rape, but
you know, unwanted sexual advances, that sort of thing. There
is a very big stigma around that around the world.
In some cultures, including African if a man is raped
and he reports it, he's actually blamed for the rape,
like women used to be. So there's a gay law

(57:30):
maker who decided. His name is Josh Newberry. He decided
he wanted to challenge the stigma of male victims of rape,
and he went to the House of Commons and told
his story on International Men's Day, and he wanted to
break the silence surrounding this, So bravo to him. I'm

(57:52):
sure that members of the House of Common for Squeen
were you know, squishing in their seeds, you know, just
squirming and not very happy. But he did do it
in hopes that in the UK and around the world
he would in fact raise awareness on International Menday that
he was raped ten years ago after having his drink spiked.

(58:15):
We have less than a minute on this Gay Week
with Scott and I thank you all for joining us
on this whirlwind cavalcade. And don't worry. The world, if
it spins, is going to remain a gay place, So
there'll be more stories next week.
