00:06
Hey guys, welcome back to me through daily.
00:08
I'm Jenny Alejandro. And we got a special episode for you
00:11
guys today. We're talking all things Thanksgiving.
00:19
I don't know, but it's a fun episode before we get
00:23
into all the big backing of the season because I know I'm
00:25
excited for that. 34.
00:30
Yeah. And then you go to the boyfriend's house and your
00:34
house. I'm going to be big bear brother,
00:37
really going out of town.
00:39
And I always want to do that.
00:40
I feel like I always stay in town and it's boring.
00:43
So can you have a baby now?
00:44
That's not boring, but she can come with us.
00:46
That's true. But anyway,
00:48
We have a bunch of fun stuff coming up.
00:50
We have Martin Rizzo joining us.
00:51
We have a Dominican man hitting the streets.
00:54
We got some Black Friday like drama and it's gonna be fun
00:57
So just you know what,
00:59
just sit down, grab your turkey or leftovers,
01:02
whatever you got in front of you.
01:03
And let's get into it.
01:05
Look, Thanksgiving is this week and I already have my sala
01:08
I got a plan chalo but I'm gonna get my hair cut
01:12
you know, premium proper and all.
01:16
That's the thing. I don't like the,
01:19
I don't get why we get all dolled up just to sit
01:27
like, why do we all like put our five high boots
01:32
like, rust colored dresses and fashion Nova flannel little jackets straighten
01:42
put on lashes. It's a whole runway for real.
01:45
It really is a fashion show.
01:47
So we wanted to ask you guys,
01:49
like, what are your theories on why we get dressed up
01:52
to sit in the freaking salon?
01:55
Well, let's take a look.
01:56
It's nice to have a reason to play dress up.
01:59
We wear work clothes every day.
02:00
That's true. That's true.
02:02
They all do up all glam.
02:06
Yeah, for those memories.
02:07
Right. That's a good reason.
02:09
I guess no one knows what it means but it's,
02:12
it gets the people going to do it.
02:16
We get all hyped it the moment.
02:19
look at her default picture.
02:20
You know, she freaking show up like that.
02:22
Look like that. That's how she start going off.
02:27
She's on the like this,
02:31
you know, she's having her cousins take pictures of her or
02:33
her man's for that picture.
02:35
That's stupid Mickey. Right though.
02:40
Because that's the memory we have.
02:42
It's like after that Ninos they take off their shit.
02:46
You know, I'm gonna start getting like a little because it
02:48
gets warm and drinking.
02:49
I want to get comfortable.
02:51
You're going to see my undershirt and I see my button up
02:53
that I was wearing it.
02:54
I mean, if you're going over your person,
02:57
you're with their family's house,
02:59
you want to look cute,
02:59
right? Like you want to look good.
03:02
But with your family where you're comfortable but I get it.
03:08
and even like they make announcements at least when we've hung out
03:11
it's like a lot of us.
03:12
Sometimes it's like guys,
03:13
pictures in five minutes,
03:14
like everyone put their shit back on the families take turns.
03:25
But then we wear pjs for Christmas.
03:29
This is true for me.
03:33
I do too, but that's so true because Christmas should be
03:36
a little more, should be a little more formal because Thanksgiving
03:39
is like a made up holiday if you think about it.
03:41
But Christmas it's right.
03:42
The birth of Christ.
03:43
Sorry, I didn't go to church that often.
03:51
that's true for Thanksgiving.
03:53
you literally just scarf everything down Tetras De to like you feel
04:00
big, you know in your Yeah,
04:04
I got, I got a medium knowing I'm an L and
04:08
bro. I don't know if I'm going to be able to
04:13
That's true. The cheese is better when your tias are
04:16
all dubbed up. Dude.
04:22
They come out with their jackets like PPD.
04:24
Nice. They, on a whole level they're playing a character
04:28
and now they want to be that they like,
04:32
and leave the lipstick stains on the glass.
04:34
I don't know. I remember all these little lipstick.
04:37
Yeah. It's always the Herbal Life.
04:39
The Herbal Life that make the biggest drama and you smell the
04:42
red door. I think my mom will,
04:43
we will get that perfume.
04:46
You know, is a different thing you walk in you like
04:53
Yeah, but that's more.
04:54
Well, guys, the comments are not just a point.
04:56
Thank you guys for letting us know why you dress up for
04:58
the holidays and we hope you guys have a Happy Thanksgiving with
05:01
your friends and family and I,
05:03
I know I'll be going to big bear just big back in
05:06
a way over there in some random cabin.
05:09
Sala. Yep. Happy Turkey Day.
05:11
Daniela. You have no idea what you're missing,
05:13
dude. Like we had black Friday.
05:17
It was a vibe and now I don't even know what to
05:21
it's mid like it's already Black Friday right now as we recorded
05:24
this. Like, how is it already?
05:25
Three weeks ahead of time.
05:28
I know we're from the pre promo code era,
05:31
right? Like promo codes weren't promo code was you sit in
05:34
line at 1 a.m. You know what?
05:36
Actually it is a little montage I could just put together.
05:39
So let's check that out.
05:39
So you can see what you're missing out on.
05:44
Oh, man, the memory of it was like a,
05:49
it was like a team thing,
05:51
like you would finish eating dinner and then go straight to the
05:54
mall. Look at that packed car.
05:58
So there was a pick up curbside pick up.
06:02
Hell, no. When did I even was that during COVID
06:06
Is that like when I took the Gamestop didn't gamestop?
06:11
That's your boy right there.
06:13
That was me, me and my brother and the smart thing
06:16
you got dropped off because the parking lot was even crazy.
06:19
Like looking for, that's the day that people really threw it
06:21
down for a parking spot.
06:23
Like I might get out and slash the tires.
06:25
That is true. There were fights starting in the parking lot
06:29
before even getting online.
06:30
You were, you were scrapping for parking spots.
06:34
Wait, I feel like I've seen videos of like people fighting
06:37
and then like there were like TV,
06:39
that happened. That was a no,
06:42
it was a people used to really throw down.
06:44
So I don't know about Eugene,
06:45
but my game plan on a thing for Black Friday was right
06:48
after dinner, right?
06:49
We kind of just hang out together.
06:50
All the primos actually had money for sure.
06:54
we're gonna mob out to Best Buy to the mall to whatever
06:57
Like right after dinner,
06:59
like Thanksgiving, but it's Black Friday,
07:02
like, well, because at midnight,
07:04
at least where we live,
07:04
the mall would open up.
07:06
So you like, you would eat,
07:07
go pulled up with the crew,
07:10
post up, you're gonna go do the line,
07:12
we're gonna go shopping.
07:13
You're gonna do this split up.
07:15
When you at the line call me,
07:17
I'm gonna be there when you start getting close to it.
07:20
like a very thought out game plan.
07:22
Like there was strategy involved.
07:24
There was like teammates,
07:25
there was because there was,
07:28
you would plan it out during the dinner,
07:31
like you would have,
07:31
you would come out with a game plan while you're eating the
07:33
food, you're chatting.
07:35
you know what? Like I'm not even gonna eat that much
07:37
because I don't want to use the bathroom because I'm gonna be
07:40
outside and you would willingly wait in line.
07:42
I would just be like,
07:43
I'm gonna fight that bein when I get back.
07:45
But right now I gotta go shopping.
07:47
I think it was a meet up point.
07:49
It was like the pregame.
07:52
All the cheese stuff.
07:52
OK, cool. We had dinner now let's go freaking mob
07:56
out and with the low.
08:00
That sounds fun. Yeah,
08:01
that was the vibe because that was my first year with a
08:03
license and I was like,
08:04
guys, we went out and got your Christmas shopping done.
08:07
So all of this effort it had to be for a reason
08:11
were the price is worth it.
08:13
you'll be walking around like grabbing like headphones for $5 like yo
08:17
like I want those Nikes right there.
08:18
I don't know, 30 bucks.
08:19
Everybody. The only thing that didn't like,
08:21
everybody would have the same fit,
08:25
Now the whole hood has the same shirt as me running around
08:30
The same Tommy Hilfiger.
08:33
It like you smell like the perfume.
08:35
Oh shit. We got the same 10 the diesel one.
08:38
Yeah. Yeah. But wait,
08:42
so I, I missed a lot of Thanksgiving dinners because
08:45
I would have to leave earlier than usual when I was working
08:48
black Fridays. What?
08:50
Wait, so I was gonna say I feel like a lot
08:51
of stores are closed now on Thanksgiving.
08:55
yeah, now you know everything is online but back then I
08:59
you know, set up the store with the squad.
09:02
If the company cared about you,
09:04
you had to nice breakfast waiting for you there.
09:06
Sometimes you didn't like I'm not gonna say the company I worked
09:11
like who the hell is eating Domino's at 10 a.m. Oh,
09:17
y'all really got me cheesy bread at 10 a.m. Like,
09:20
come on, like I've been up since 5 a.m. though.
09:23
what is it in Chorro?
09:25
I mean, how about you,
09:28
how was the Black Fridays for you,
09:29
man? Like working or working?
09:32
I hated it because I worked at a coffee shop and so
09:36
everyone would stop by before going to their shop and like,
09:38
oh where are you going to go shopping?
09:41
What the fuck? Like why would you ask?
09:43
It's like, you know,
09:44
like on things that she be like,
09:45
oh my God, if you believe you guys are open,
09:47
well, because of you like what the fuck.
09:50
Oh This makes me a little bit sad because I just love
09:53
chaos. Sorry. And this seems really chaotic.
09:56
It also seems so meme friendly.
09:59
Like I think we need to bring back Black Friday.
10:03
I think Black Friday is essential to character development.
10:07
I think it's humbling and I think my generation needs that frankly
10:10
Sorry, not to shit on it,
10:11
but we got it handed to us.
10:13
Ok? What do you mean?
10:15
We don't have to wait in line anymore.
10:16
listen, I'm a diva and to me,
10:19
I see a line and check out line I'm skinning,
10:22
I'm ordering it and it's coming to my house.
10:25
The next morning already already.
10:27
I literally, I mean,
10:28
like you said, Black Friday doesn't happen anymore.
10:30
I never really got to experience it.
10:32
I want to experience it.
10:33
I want to be on the news because I got the cheapest
10:37
You know what? And it's good for the economy.
10:41
Yeah. Since we're all working about the economy,
10:44
I think, I think they just need to pull stuff and
10:46
just make it in person.
10:47
Like, yo you want this toy,
10:48
you want this Elmo that can dance.
10:50
Bachata. You gotta come into the store and buy it like
10:53
we're not selling it online.
10:55
The other thing we gotta stop like making stores completely different.
10:59
Like the shitty version is the in person shopping experience and on
11:03
it's got everything you want.
11:05
Everything you need, every size you need,
11:07
everything is online. Nothing is in store.
11:10
Cut the shit. I wanna go and I wanna shop and
11:13
I wanna see the clothes.
11:14
I wanna try the clothes on.
11:15
Bring that back. I'm sick and tired of online shopping.
11:18
Maybe, maybe, maybe we'll,
11:20
we'll, we'll Black Friday lunch and we'll have a,
11:22
we'll fight for lunch later.
11:25
We'll make it like a little line,
11:26
you know, and then right when you're about to get yours
11:28
I give a little taste of it.
11:30
We'll give you a little taste of Black Friday.
11:32
You know, like 1000% like lunch is served,
11:35
you're about to eat and you know,
11:37
and swipe it, it was on sale.
11:40
Sorry, I'd really appreciate that.
11:56
What's up guys? We're here at Echo Park and we're gonna
11:59
ask people what time the Thanksgiving dinner start personally.
12:02
My dinner start at 8 p.m. Sometimes nine,
12:05
depending on whenever my mom finished doing her hair personally.
12:08
I know some friends out here that start their dinners at like
12:11
3 p.m. That's crazy.
12:13
I'm still at the barbershop at that time.
12:14
But let's see what people say,
12:16
boss, man. Can I ask you a question?
12:17
What time does your Thanksgiving dinner start?
12:23
ma'am. Can I ask you a question?
12:25
What time does your Thanksgiving dinner start?
12:28
Whenever the sun goes down between three and 5 p.m. Yo guys
12:34
what time does Thanksgiving dinner start?
12:40
I already know off the fits.
12:41
They don't know how to cook.
12:49
What time does the Thanksgiving dinner starts at two?
12:54
You imagine putting that pressure on your guest to pull up at
12:57
two? What time does your Thanksgiving dinner start?
13:00
She says she doesn't know.
13:02
So that's crazy. Thanksgiving.
13:11
Somebody said 2 p.m. That's crazy.
13:16
That's what I'm saying.
13:17
But what time does the Thanksgiving dinner start?
13:20
Time is a man made construct.
13:21
And I don't believe in the hearts of man,
13:25
ma'am. What time does Thanksgiving dinner start all day long?
13:30
Money answer. That's a good answer.
13:33
Right? There and she running?
13:37
guys, you guys heard it here.
13:39
L A runs on different time when it comes to Thanksgiving.
13:42
As for me, you already know where y'all can find me
13:44
I'm gonna be sleeping as you know,
13:53
we're heading into the holiday season,
13:55
so we need to address some things and make sure we're ready
13:59
for certain situations at family gatherings.
14:03
Luckily we have comedian Martin Rizzo to help us out.
14:10
Thanksgiving is the only holiday.
14:12
If your oven doesn't work,
14:13
you can't participate in it.
14:14
You know, they have a bunch of pots and pans in
14:16
there anyways. Yeah.
14:19
So then you got to go to another house,
14:21
a family member that actually has a nice house.
14:22
My aunts, they married white guys.
14:25
So it's like they make good mac and cheese,
14:27
bro. Shout out to the pilgrims out there,
14:30
bro. Plymouth Rock homie.
14:33
You know what I mean?
14:36
I know that not everybody is blessed with the cooking gene,
14:38
right? How do you dispose of a hot plate of ass
14:44
Have you come across it?
14:45
This Thanksgiving? Oh man,
14:47
dude. I don't know if I can talk about this,
14:48
bro. We went to like my my uncle's family and
14:53
she made some tamales and it was strawberry tamales.
14:58
and then her her wife told us,
15:00
oh Los is cores quick.
15:05
why did you even tell me,
15:06
bro? Like, keep it a secret?
15:08
It was that they're ok.
15:10
But when I found out it was,
15:12
like everything just, yeah,
15:13
that's almost like Rachel Ray,
15:14
like stuff right there on tiktok.
15:17
Yeah, exactly. That's like the hottest.
15:20
It tastes good though.
15:21
Like, I'm not going but it's just,
15:23
it's just weird. How about you,
15:25
sister? How do you let someone know their food?
15:27
Wasn't that great. I would grab a napkin and if
15:32
I have it in my mouth,
15:37
just spit it, spit it in there just quietly dispose of
15:43
I thought you say get the nap.
15:45
Put Chlorophyll in, take out the t who made this?
15:54
You're not coming back.
15:57
You just, sometimes I'll grab the plate and suffocate that bitch
16:06
I don't want it in the trash face down and it's
16:10
like a little crump.
16:11
She'll be over soon and then we're done.
16:14
But that's how I do it.
16:15
I want to know what pisses you off during Thanksgiving.
16:20
I hate when people bring a Walmart pumpkin pie.
16:24
So Sam's Club is cool but Walmart.
16:25
No, Sam's Club and Costco.
16:27
The bigger ones, dude,
16:28
like you actually see the people cooking in the back.
16:31
It makes you feel like you're at a bakery,
16:33
you know, like a homemade kind of in the way like
16:36
hey, this is made with love.
16:37
Yeah, exactly. You see the trays.
16:40
I don't see that at Walmart.
16:42
So the pie is good thing.
16:43
How about you? It's when someone doesn't bring much to the
16:46
things, they don't bring shit,
16:48
you didn't bring shit and you have five kids and then you
16:52
take food home, you have the like this or something.
16:55
It sounds like you really shout out to the right now.
17:01
I don't fuck with empty handed people.
17:03
What I do if they don't contribute anything to Thanksgiving,
17:06
they just show up comin I get my big back to block
17:10
them out like black people.
17:12
They want to take shit home.
17:13
Exactly. Let people that actually showed up on time brought shit
17:17
serve themselves first.
17:19
At least we're not going to not give you food.
17:24
everyone knows that one,
17:25
Tia who just loves cheese,
17:26
man, right? And she thinks that her kids are better
17:28
than everybody else. Like clo like,
17:33
what are the ways to deal with that?
17:35
And clap back respectfully.
17:36
If she says something disrespectful to me,
17:39
then I say something kind of like little jab a little jab
17:45
she'll think about it later on that day,
17:47
she'll think about it for sure.
17:49
She'll be driving home like,
17:50
00 Jenny fucking schooled me and I had no idea in front
17:55
of everybody. Any final thoughts you want to share with the
17:57
audience about Thanksgiving and the holidays,
17:58
bro. Any advice if you have to lie about bringing food
18:02
that your mom made then do it,
18:03
you know, you got to survive.
18:05
I have a story about Thanksgiving in the holidays with my girls
18:09
I don't really, I'd always show up,
18:10
you know, for the holidays,
18:11
you know, Easter Thanksgiving,
18:14
Christmas, you know,
18:16
you know, I always felt like they were kind of looking
18:18
this guy, but then once I start bringing my aunts Tamales
18:21
for the holidays, they're looking forward for me,
18:25
is Martin here? You know,
18:27
is he here? I'm like,
18:29
and I feel so good being on Tamales and one day my
18:31
aunt couldn't make him.
18:32
you're going to fuck me.
18:35
They're going to hate me again.
18:36
If I went to Northgate,
18:39
I got a sho Tamales.
18:40
I took off the wrapping.
18:41
I put, I got a tray,
18:43
I passed them off as my aunts Tamales before we actually go
18:52
Where can people follow you?
18:53
Instagram comic, Martin Rizzo,
18:55
youtube, Martin Rizzo,
18:57
everything, the podcast I do.
18:59
And thank you for having me because I do.
19:01
I think Thanksgiving is like probably my favorite holiday.
19:03
And then do you have any upcoming shows?
19:05
This is my first time being out of town for Thanksgiving,
19:07
which I'm kind of sad.
19:08
I'm gonna be in San Jose with the homie Oper Rob.
