Speaker 1 Thank you to our sponsor, KFC. Thanks, Timmy's coming up, and KFC's starting a little holiday debate: turkey or chicken.
Not much of a debate, if you ask me. Yeah, let's be real.

Speaker 1 It's the you need gravy to survive a bird.

Speaker 1 Let's be honest: is it really worth spending eight hours cooking a turkey when you could just get something better, especially if it just causes you to go through a drive-through and get a bucket of it, maybe?

Speaker 1 How about KFC's extra crispy chicken? Juicy, crispy, and always finger-licking good, baby. Extra crispy does sound good.
The underdog choice for all your holiday gatherings.

Speaker 1 KFC is saying cluck turkey this Thanksgiving. That's right.
We're inviting all of you to give dry turkey the bird. It's time to ditch the dry, boring bird this holiday and order KFC instead.

Speaker 1 You can't go wrong with a bucket of chicken, a good game or movie, or just some good times with friends and family. This year, skip the turkey and celebrate with KFC's Extra Krispy chicken.

Speaker 1 Thank you to our partner, Boarshead. Ooh, a little meat.

Speaker 1 The NFL season is in full swing, and you know what that means. Time to eat meat.

Speaker 1 Millions of fans are turning their homes into game day headquarters every weekend. Gosh, and whether you're hosting a watch party at home or tailgating before a big game, you gotta feed the crowd.

Speaker 1 You gotta feed the crowd. That's where Boar's Head comes in the clutch.
Yes. Their platters are literally literally a game changer.
We're talking premium meats, cheeses, dips, and more.

Speaker 1 What's your go-to deli platter, Jason? I mean, any of them.

Speaker 1 Dude, anything that combines crackers, meat, cheese, and mustard, it doesn't matter what kind it is. You got Pepper Jack, you got Provolone.

Speaker 1 You got cheddar, you got beer cheese, you got salami, you got kielbasa. There you go.
Don't be all archy with me. Ritz crackers.

Speaker 1 Maybe you could do some of those like whole grain thick boys that are around. Those are kind of nice too.
If you want to be kind of different, you go with like a wheat thin.

Speaker 1 If you really want to elevate your game day spread and score big with your entire home gating, that's tailgating at home.

Speaker 1 Visit your local Boarshead Deli. They'll hook you up with a ready-made platter.
Ooh. Or you can build on your own.
There you go. Either way, you're upgrading your game day with some serious flavor.

Speaker 1 Boarshead, committed to craft since 1905. How about it? It's just a great name, too.
Over 100. Yeah, you know what you're getting.
Boar's head.

Speaker 2 Halloween is actually a better holiday than Christmas.

Speaker 1 You're a idiot, Thaddeus.

Speaker 3 Christmas is cool and all, but Halloween's the best.

Speaker 1 I'm trying to think in like what world somebody would think Halloween is better. And the only thing that makes sense is that their parents gave them a Christmas.
Who put that on Thaddeus's parents?

Speaker 1 I'm definitely putting that on Thaddeus's parents. That's the only possible way Thaddeus thinks that is that his parents gave him a shitty.

Speaker 1 If I'm just going to be honest, I'm kind of with that in this one. Well, apparently, Brandon's parents gave him a shitty Christmas as well.

Speaker 1 Welcome to this bonus episode of New Heights, a Wondry Show, and we're your host, Travis Kelsey. This is my big brother, Jason Kelsey.

Speaker 1 Subscribe on YouTube, Wondry Plus, or wherever you get your podcast. And follow the show on all social media at New Heights Show with 1S.

Speaker 1 And Jason is now going to tell you what exactly you get in this bonus episode. That's Rod.
Welcome

Speaker 1 to today's bonus episode. That's right.

Speaker 1 Maybe you're here because you stumbled across us on your phone or internet

Speaker 1 or whatever your device is. Maybe you're here to see Travis Kelsey or listen to his voice.
What? Just maybe you're here to listen to some holiday hot takes from some of the 92%,

Speaker 1 call-ins, and other shenanigans about holidays and hot takes. All right, here we go.

Speaker 1 All right, we got a few options. The bold ones seem to be the ones that they prefer us talking talking about.
I say you just go ahead and hit the bold ones. All righty.

Speaker 1 Holiday, Halloween, better than Christmas? I can already know this is not accurate.

Speaker 3 Hey, this is Thaddeus from Kansas City.

Speaker 1 Thaddeus, great name.

Speaker 2 My holiday hot take is that Halloween is actually a better holiday than the fucking idiot Thaddeus.

Speaker 1 You had us with Thaddeus and then you lost us.

Speaker 2 Just better all-around vibes.

Speaker 3 You get to spook kids and

Speaker 1 play pranks.

Speaker 3 And Christmas is going on, but Halloween's the best.

Speaker 1 All right. Take it easy.
It's a hot take. I mean, he does share your love of scaring children.
It's a very hot take. Listen, I love Halloween.
It's great. I'm very on board with Halloween.

Speaker 1 You can spook kids in Christmas, too. That's the thing about spooking is that you can spook kids whenever.
Yeah. Christmas is the greatest holiday on the planet.

Speaker 1 There's not even, there's not even something that compares to it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I'm just, there's just nothing that gets like people happy like Christmas does. It moves the stock market.
That's how influential it is.

Speaker 1 Like consumer products, this is so ingrained into our culture and so like unanimously. I knew Jewish people that celebrated Christmas.
Don't

Speaker 1 say who they are because then they will be

Speaker 1 frowned upon. I think it's pretty commonplace at this point.
I think, I bet if you,

Speaker 1 it's, it's, it's gone beyond religion at this point. It's like so ingrained into American culture.
And it comes down to family giving the holiday spirit, like all of it.

Speaker 1 Like, it's just a fantastic holiday. And I love Halloween, but I mean, it couldn't sniff a fart of Christmas to be

Speaker 1 giving you two weeks off on Halloween. That's right.
That alone.

Speaker 1 It's remarkable. It's a hot take.
It's a very bad take. All right, next one.
Yeah, it's tough. Thaddeus, though.
Great name. Great name.
Horrible take on Christmas.

Speaker 1 This guy was getting cold for fucking presents every year.

Speaker 1 I just, the joy that Christmas gives you, just seeing the decorations, going to Christmas parties, the thanks, the joy of seeing another person open a present you give them.

Speaker 1 What is this going to be? It's underrated. Like, I just don't know that there's any.

Speaker 1 I'm trying to think in like what world somebody would think Halloween is better. And the only thing that makes sense is that their parents gave them a shitty Christmas.
Like, I don't know what else

Speaker 1 to fucking

Speaker 1 I'm definitely putting that on Thaddeus' parents. That's the only possible way Thaddeus thinks that is that his parents gave him a shitty Christmas.

Speaker 1 He's just got to see it clear.

Speaker 1 He's got candy vision. He's got spooky vision.
He's just got to see it for what it is. But Halloween has, I mean, Christmas has candy too.
Candy canes.

Speaker 1 You hate candy canes. I love candy canes.
What? You don't like candy canes?

Speaker 1 Candy corn is shit. Yes, exactly.

Speaker 1 The candy that represents Halloween and the candy that represents Christmas is night and day better for Christmas.

Speaker 1 They don't make a Christmas Reese's. Yes, they do.
It's a Christmas tree.

Speaker 1 That's not a stop. It's the same.
You put candy in the stocking. It's basically the same thing, but you don't have to walk to other strangers' houses.
You just get them from your loved ones.

Speaker 1 Nice. Thaddeus, you're kind of right, though.
Christmas candies, no. Not that we've done Thaddeus.

Speaker 1 I'm kind of with Thaddeus. If I'm just going to be honest, I'm kind of with Thaddeus in this one.
Apparently, Brandon's parents gave him a shitty Christmas as well as.

Speaker 1 Oh, God. This is a failure.
Anybody who thinks Halloween is better than Christmas, their parents have failed them. I had a great Christmas.
I've turned into a Halloween guy in my old age.

Speaker 1 I don't know how that happened. Halloween's fine, but it's no, it doesn't hold a candle to Christmas.
What were you? What were you this year, Brandon? Me? Oh, we did it one battle after another.

Speaker 1 I was Benicio del Toro. I was Sensei.
Oh, Sensei. That's right.
I saw that. Lauren was in DiCaprio.
Yeah. Great costume.
The dog was Sean Penn from that movie. Great costume.

Speaker 1 Have you ever tried to put a wig on a dog on Christmas? See, that's a Halloween thing. Thank you to our partner, Gillette.
All right, now, Jason, you've been retired for a full year.

Speaker 1 Let's talk pregame rituals. Do you miss them? Still have them? I kind of have one, I guess, for Monday Night Countdown.

Speaker 1 Like, I kind of go do the production meeting, then I kind of iron out what's happening in the rundown. Then I go to the makeup lady, then I go to the hair, and then I go on set.

Speaker 1 I was just curious to see if you were putting that same game day energy into your new broadcasting routine. That's all.

Speaker 1 Well, first and foremost, it includes making sure that this beard is looking real nice, which is slightly starting to show some of my grays again after dying it. I'm getting those natural colors back.

Speaker 1 Thank you. Thanks so much.

Speaker 1 But yeah, I have

Speaker 1 some grooming individuals that make sure it's looking nice and tidy. If you were looking for a tool to help wrangle it in a little bit, look no further than Gillette Labs NFL licensed razor.

Speaker 1 Special edition razors have those long-lasting Gillette Labs blades and the precision trimmer on the back. It's perfect for cleaning up this guy.
Nice.

Speaker 1 I hear it's a must-have for NFL fans this season, and clearly you too.

Speaker 1 Sold, available now on 12 teams, including the Eagles and Chiefs. Get it while you can at gillette.com slash nfl gillette the best a fan can get

Speaker 1 thank you to our presenting sponsor who's reese's oreo cups oh reese oreo nice reese's cups with oreo cookie crumbs uh included you asked for it we definitely asked for it and it is finally happening For those of you that don't know, we just said Reese's Oreo Cups.

Speaker 1 That's right. They also have regular Oreos with peanut butter in the middle.

Speaker 1 Two fan favorites coming together to make everyone's day a million times better. Wait a minute.
Could Reese's Oreo Cups be like the Kelsey brothers of candy?

Speaker 1 Which one of us is Reese's and which one of us is Oreo? Which one of us is Reese's and which one of us is Oreo? Yeah.

Speaker 1 Are we talking about Oreo with peanut butter in the middle or Oreo with white in the middle? Just regular Oreo. I mean, I'm clearly Oreo.
I'm a little bit darker.

Speaker 1 You got to love it. So grab these Reese's Oreo cups today, wherever candy is sold.
Better yet, grab them right now, or we're going to grab them first because they are seriously that good. They are.

Speaker 1 And we wouldn't lie to you, they're very good.

Speaker 1 Thank you to our sponsor. KFC.
Are you a dark meat or a

Speaker 1 breast cutting guy? When you get KFC, you can get it all. Just put it in that bus.
That's true. Thanks, Sandy's coming up.
And KFC is starting a little holiday debate. Turkey or chicken?

Speaker 1 Not much of a debate, if you ask me. Yeah, let's be real.
It's the you need gravy to survive it, bird. It's beige of all.

Speaker 1 Let's be honest.

Speaker 1 Is it really worth spending eight hours cooking a turkey when you could just get something better, especially if it just causes you to go through a drive-through and get a bucket of it, maybe?

Speaker 1 How about KFC's extra crispy chicken? Juicy, crispy, and always finger-licking good, baby. Extra crispy does sound good.
This is the underdog choice for all your holiday gatherings.

Speaker 1 KFC is saying cluck turkey this Thanksgiving. That's right.
We're inviting all of you to give dry turkey the bird. It's time to ditch the dry boring bird this holiday and order KFC instead.

Speaker 1 You can't go wrong with a bucket of chicken, a good game or movie, or just some good times with friends and family. Everybody's going to love it.

Speaker 1 If you show up to a Thanksgiving meal with extra crispy chicken from KFC, people are going to love you. Especially a bucket of it.

Speaker 1 If you come with a bucket of extra crispy fried chicken from KFC, you're going to get some thank yous. This year, skip the turkey and celebrate with KFC's extra crispy chicken.

Speaker 5 Hi, Jude Strawberry. I would like to give an extreme hot take since it's Tuesday damn season, and that is turkey is one of the worst dishes on Thanksgiving of all time.

Speaker 1 Hard to agree.

Speaker 5 It's so dry and people who like it just are weird.

Speaker 1 Thank you. Listen, I'm fully, this is why I fry turkey.
It's hard to eat turkey unless it's deep fried and with you, man.

Speaker 1 Like, you know boiled in fat grease we never had turkey we agree we we purposely never had turkey mom would make pork chops or some other meat i love everything else about well i take that back i love most other things about thanksgiving fair right i'm a big mashed potatoes guy i'm a big corn guy kylie makes a badass green bean casserole love that dish um mama kelse dinner rolls like everything else about thanksgiving is so fantastic and then it gets kind of muddled down with, for the most part, the way most people make it, a dry-ass bird that you got to slather gravy and cranberry sauce on to redeem anything about it.

Speaker 1 I mean, it's just the honest. You got to fry it.
You got to fry it or you got to be in that thing non-stop, injecting it with like... You got to fry it or you got to fucking spatchcock that sucker.

Speaker 1 There you go. Spatchcock it.

Speaker 1 Or what you haven't tried yet is turducken. You got to stuff that thing with the duck.
You're right. I have not tried the turducken, but I'm very in on it.

Speaker 1 The premise of it sounds incredible.

Speaker 1 I'm out.

Speaker 1 What else was it? Oh, the other thing that I don't.

Speaker 1 Pumpkin pie is okay, but I think it's also commonplace for a lot of people. Maybe I'm wrong on this.
Apple pie around Thanksgiving. I'll go on this.

Speaker 1 Apple pie has got to be the most overrated dessert on the fucking history of top shelf desserts. It's got to be, there's got to be a fuck ton of cinnamon in that thing.

Speaker 1 It's got to be a fuck ton of cinnamon and butter, and I got to fucking, that's got to overpower the apple.

Speaker 1 I'm just not, apple pie just doesn't, I like ice cream, so like when you put it with ice cream,

Speaker 1 that's the thing. That's another thing.
I am definitely more of a cake guy than a pie guy. Although

Speaker 1 Stephen Cookies down the shore, they make a mean blueberry pie. It is fucking incredible.
See, blueberry pie, different type of pie. And this is, they do it weird to it.

Speaker 1 Like, isn't as like, I guess, like, jelloy, you know what I mean? Like, a lot of the pie is like a texture thing that I just don't really, warm fruit doesn't make me excited. I like cold fruit.
Noted.

Speaker 1 I'm trying to think. There are pies that I like, though.
Pumpkin pie is not bad. Pumpkin pie is.
Key lime's the only one. Key lime.
Cold fruit. Key lime's a cold pie.

Speaker 1 Key lime pie is the closest thing to like cheesecake that I'll ever have. I feel like

Speaker 1 raspberries would be good in a pie. It's got to have a little bit more like tartness for it to be good.
Apples just don't bring that

Speaker 1 like note that really makes me enjoy it that much. I need something in the inside that doesn't just like give me like a comp.

Speaker 1 You know what I mean? Like a like a like a comp.

Speaker 1 You know what I'm talking about?

Speaker 1 I think it's C-O-M-P-T-E is what you're thinking about. There it is.
Yeah, but it's is it compote? It's compote

Speaker 1 C-O-M-P-O-T-E, right? There you go.

Speaker 1 I think it's compote. I think I'm

Speaker 1 like that. That stuff I'm out on.
I don't mind it if it's cold. I just, there's something about the warmness of pie that I'm just out.
Desserts, I don't like warm desserts.

Speaker 1 Were you ever

Speaker 1 an apple? That's not true. Caramel guy.

Speaker 1 That's not true. I'll take that back.
What? Where are you? Caramel apple.

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 1 I don't like it. I like apples.
I will eat an apple by itself. I don't like it.
I don't like caramel. I'm not a big dressing.
I like apple and peanut butter.

Speaker 1 I'll throw some peanut butter on that apple. So you don't like caramel, is what you're saying.
I like caramel on certain things. I just don't really.

Speaker 1 The other thing is, like, a caramel apple for me with a beard to eat is just like sounds like the biggest disaster of all time. Like, it's going to be fucking everywhere.
I'm not.

Speaker 1 yeah, yeah, you could cut it up, I suppose. I just

Speaker 1 like I like caramel in certain things. I like caramel mixed with chocolate.
I don't like caramel with apple. No, all right, nice, noted.

Speaker 1 Yeah, anyways, I don't know what we just don't know where that even yeah, so yes, we agree. Turkey sucks.
All right, sweet potatoes. Let's go.

Speaker 4 Okay, so my Thanksgiving holiday hot take is that sweet potatoes have no place in a Thanksgiving menu. Um, whipped, matte, uh, roasted, they are just the least of the least.

Speaker 4 They're the worst thing on the table, especially

Speaker 4 with maple syrup. It just, it's a dessert.

Speaker 1 Yeah. You're

Speaker 1 a little bit to a pumpkin pie. Are you trying to watch your calories? Put a marshmallow on top, put a maring.
You should have both. But you

Speaker 4 can eat sweet potatoes on your menu. You've got, you could do roasted root vegetables.
You can do your maturity.

Speaker 1 Roasted root vegetables.

Speaker 4 Other things, carrots, honey-glazed carrots.

Speaker 1 Honey, I'm in in on honey-glazed carrots. Now you're just getting carrots to dessert.

Speaker 1 Honey-glazed carrots, don't you?

Speaker 1 Don't melt

Speaker 4 fish basically in a whole bunch of savory stuff. You're not going to put your gravy over your sweet potatoes.
You're not going to, you know, take a Brussels sprout and dip it in your sweet potato.

Speaker 1 That's just weird. You can't

Speaker 4 get any bacon or anything. It's got marshmallows, maple syrup, and

Speaker 4 that's it. It's wrong.
It should not be on a Thanksgiving table.

Speaker 4 That's my best hot take.

Speaker 1 Well, you're wrong. Sweet potatoes and marshmallows and freaking I think potatoes and sweet potatoes both have both.
You don't need to have one or the other.

Speaker 1 Sweet potato fries. If somebody made sweet potato fries, I'd be fucking jazzed personally.
I don't understand the roasted root vegetable. Like this guy walks fucking.

Speaker 1 Did he go? Where the fuck? He's the that is you want to talk about a hot you want beets in here? Like what are we talking about?

Speaker 1 And then he said like you can't you can't candy up the sweet potato, but you can have candied carrots with honey glaze on them.

Speaker 1 Listen, if you gave me the choice of honey glazed carrots or sweet potatoes and marshmallow on them, I'm taking the sweet potatoes and marshmallow all day.

Speaker 1 Some roasted honey carrots are good, though, man. I'm not in on the honey carrots.
Dude, I got you. Yeah? No.
Carrots, when they get roasted, they just get mushy. They get too mushy for me.

Speaker 1 No, you still got to have that crunch.

Speaker 1 Yeah, but it's hard.

Speaker 1 If it's cooked perfectly, I could do it. Yeah.
But I just, I prefer carrot cake. That's how I prefer my carrot cake.
Ooh, see, now we're talking. Cream cheese frosting?

Speaker 1 I didn't know you were a carrot cake guy. Next time you're in the city, I got a place.
Dude, get these little carrot cupcakes and make you feel like you're not doing too much.

Speaker 1 I'm not a big frosting guy. The only reason I think I like carrot cake is because of the cream cheese frosting.

Speaker 1 Ah, dude, I got the place for you. Damn, it's good.
It's so good. I got the place for you.

Speaker 1 Like, what are we making apple pie for? Just put the carrots in there. Jackstack has one of the best carrot cakes

Speaker 1 ever, dude. it's so good that people like just like go in and get the carrot cake like cupcakes just so that they don't feel too bad about getting the entire

Speaker 1 mammoth of a cake that that you could get there we have a couple spots around here that we'll go and specifically just get the carrot cake and then we'll eat it like two fatties all day

Speaker 1 it's the best the best and they do it they just slab that cheesecake uh icing on there it's so good no doubt we're big um

Speaker 1 stocks people as well in philadelphia that's a big dessert one for us i don't know how we keep getting back to desserts. We keep getting back to desserts.
All right.

Speaker 1 We're talking about sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes are fine.
They're good. They're fucking awesome.
I mean, you can have sweet potatoes and mashed potatoes.

Speaker 1 I don't think you have to differentiate between these two. And I disagree.

Speaker 1 Like, you can do sweet potatoes with marshmallows and the maple glaze. And then at the end of the day, you can have your dessert too.
Like, what do we, we're not calorie counting on Thanksgiving.

Speaker 1 No, that's not what we're doing here. We're making the most delicious thing possible.
If that means throwing marshmallows on top of it, bring it on, brother. Bring it on.

Speaker 1 Throw that shit on top. Throwing roasted root vegetables.
Like, that's fucking going to get it done. Unless you're throwing fucking marshmallows on those.
This guy's coming with beets.

Speaker 1 I don't know if I'd like that. Yeah.
I don't even know. I mean, I like beets, but that's if you like.

Speaker 1 Put it with goat cheese and smother a bunch of fucking salad dressing on it. I just had a beet beer in Las Vegas.

Speaker 1 It was like a beet sour. It actually wasn't.
It was a bad curiosity to know what shit tastes like. It

Speaker 1 blows my mind. The fact that you actually had

Speaker 1 beet,

Speaker 1 you'll try any kind of fucking beer, and it's absolutely disgusting.

Speaker 1 You gave me a fucking blueberry,

Speaker 1 and I wanted

Speaker 1 to shoot myself.

Speaker 1 It was probably great. It was disgusting.
I like experimenting. I like a little citrus lime or something, or like a little garage beer lime.
I got you. I like a cider.
I'll drink a cider.

Speaker 1 Cider is, I'm not a big cider guy. It's too much.
It's too sweet.

Speaker 1 But beet beer was good.

Speaker 1 It was okay. I wouldn't want to drink a bunch of it, but for one glass, it was a unique flavor profile.
It had like a Borsch, soury kind of thing happening. It was not bad.
All right.

Speaker 1 That's all I got for his sweet potato take. Yeah, the sweet potatoes.
I mean, that was a rough take. That was a rough take.
This is my last question coming from me, just based on that conversation.

Speaker 1 Oh, gosh. Really quick.
No, though, this is good. This is good.
Last question, real quick. What is the best Thanksgiving side dish? One, two, three, go.

Speaker 1 Ready? Cream bean casserole. Ooh.
Travis. Mac and cheese.
Mac and cheese. Yeah.
Okay. I knew.
I knew it was more of a Travis on this one. I knew we were locked in.

Speaker 1 The problem with mac and cheese is it's not. No, that's where you're wrong.
The problem, there is no problem.

Speaker 1 Well, here's the problem. Here's the problem.
If anything, it's an everyday.

Speaker 1 Not the way you make it on Thanksgiving. Yes, it is.
You guys make it all the time? You guys are like, you guys are not just doing it out of the box? You do it. I've had it baked a thousand times too.

Speaker 1 Yes. Like, I don't, it's not always out of the box.
I'm not. Green bee casserole is like an exclusive thing to Thanksgiving.
Really? Maybe

Speaker 1 pretty much. Not mine.

Speaker 1 The sweet potatoes. Travis is having it every goddamn day.

Speaker 1 I'm having it never.

Speaker 1 Travis is not having green bee casserole. That's true.

Speaker 1 It's mac and cheese.

Speaker 1 I'll go one step further. Mac and cheese the day after.
Get that congealed? I'll go one step further into mac and cheese is the most overrated dessert or a side item.

Speaker 1 It's not, I'm not a big mac and cheese guy. Travis has always been a big mac and cheese guy.
I've never been a big mac and cheese. So now we have Canada mad at us.

Speaker 1 We have the mac and cheese fans mad at us. We're just going down.
It's okay. I just think it's overrated.
It's not, there's a thousand other things you can have cheesy, and I would prefer.

Speaker 1 I think when you get it just right and it's got like that baked crust, that is. Yeah, I hear you.
It's not bad on you. It's not bad.

Speaker 1 If you get the crunchies to it, get the crunchies. It's good.
It's good. You also can fuck it up real good, too.
I've seen some people deliver some wet-ass noodles. It is not good.

Speaker 1 I don't like shit too cheesy. That green bean casserole.
God damn, I can't wait. Wait, does Kylie make that? What's in this green bean casserole?

Speaker 1 What do you make on Thanksgiving, Jason? What do you help with? I fry the turkey, and Kylie doesn't even eat that. So I pretty much make a turkey for myself.
This guy's so fucking funny.

Speaker 1 Kylie, we're all good out here.

Speaker 1 She doesn't trust me,

Speaker 1 cooking it right. What's in this casserole? I believe, I could be wrong because I've never made it.
Green beans are a component. I believe it's

Speaker 1 like this mushroom.

Speaker 1 Oh, my gosh, what's it called? It's like a cream mushroom thing that is like the base of it.

Speaker 1 Yeah. It's like a creamy texture underneath it.
Crane powder with green beans. And then it's got fried onions on top of it, basically.

Speaker 1 Across the board, I think Travis is not a big fan of Great Bean Casserole. I think when I was there, I tried it just because I was appreciative and thankful, like my dad always taught me.

Speaker 1 I'm looking at pictures of it. I know Travis is out on this.
This is the anti-Travis Kelsey dish.

Speaker 1 One thing we never had growing up that I'm a big fan of is cranberry sauce, but Kylie only likes the like canned cranberry sauce. She's correct.

Speaker 1 I don't like the canned cranberry sauce as much as I like like an actually made cranberry sauce. Yeah, because canned isn't actually made.

Speaker 1 Well, it's it's like more I like a fresh cranberry sauce made rather than a cranberry sauce. That's I want to see the ridges.
I want to see the outlook.

Speaker 1 I want to see the ridges.

Speaker 1 I want to see the ridges, brother. I'm out on the ridges.
I want that thing to come plopping out and don't even touch it. Just let it sit as a cylinder.

Speaker 1 Spam.

Speaker 1 That's what it looks like. Let it be nasty.
All right. So you like jello.
Exactly. That's what it is.
Jell-O's technically cold fruit.

Speaker 1 I always steered clear Jell-O because it was always like hospital food. That is a little weird.
I feel like pudding's more of a hospital food in my mind.

Speaker 1 I would like to eat the jello packs like they were fun dip.

Speaker 1 I wouldn't, I wouldn't fucking.

Speaker 1 I wouldn't, I wasn't very

Speaker 1 in on.

Speaker 1 That's very funny. It is so funny.
