[♪ OUTRO MUSIC PLAYS

Hey, bro! What's going on? The Jeff Christmas show is live. And here we are. It's January. You made it.

And it's all downhill from here. I don't know what's going on. Hey, uh, hi. We're still in this weird

lol, where, uh, you know, some people probably went back to work yesterday, but not a lot happening, starting to get some pre-CES information around.

But not really, yeah, I don't know. We're still in this kind of quiet period. It's nice. Because, you know, I didn't really take a break per se.

Um, cause I didn't want to. I was like, you know, hey, I'm gonna keep streaming and keep doing my thing. I fucking like doing it.

But yeah, you know, yesterday it was pretty quiet. You know, had a, had a pretty quiet new year around these parts.

Um, you know, the kids go to bed early, so there's no like, yeah, I don't know. And, and, and we all wake up super early. So right now, well, I've been up since four in the morning, which is actually not that abnormal for me these days.

Um, you know, sometimes, sometimes the boy goes back to sleep, sometimes he doesn't. So sometimes I get a little bit of sleep after 4 a.m., sometimes I don't.

Yeah, so the idea of like, hey, let's stay up until midnight and, and whatever, whatever. I think I saw the ball drop in New York at nine o'clock our time.

And, um, and that was enough. That was, I was good. I was good. I stayed up for another hour to watch it. Hit midnight in New Orleans and, and so on and so forth. But, um, you know, I found myself going like, who is it's just literally just another day.

This whole New Year thing is a scam. But, uh, yeah, I don't know. I think a part of that is you get to a certain, well, I think it is the parenting. Honestly, I was going to say you get to a certain age, but, you know, I think it is just, yeah, these kids wake up when they wake up and they're not going to be like, oh, you stayed up till midnight so you could watch TV.

Okay, we'll sleep in and be good. No, no, no, no, that's so, um,

great. So, yeah, uh, yes, they didn't, yes, this is, this is true.

Uh, Rekrullet says they didn't even let Anderson Cooper get drunk this year. And I feel like I, I witnessed his protest. I don't know if you caught this. I don't know if you were watching. I, I don't know if you're watching CNN's awesome New Year's coverage.

Um, but like, so they had Brian Cox, the actor of chain reaction fame. You may know, you may know him from such hit films as what chain reaction and, uh, glimmer man.

Um, I love chain reaction.

I find it is one of my favorite Keanu Reeves films and, uh, you know, more relevant than ever. Honestly, uh, we love, we love Brian Cox here at the program.

Um, and so he's there as like, they're doing the count. He's like, they're maybe not like not long after midnight, but he's like, that's their guest. They're like, they got Brian Cox out there in New York to be like, yeah, fuck, I'm Brian Cox. What the fuck?

You want some? I'm at me. Um, and, uh, and he said, like at one point, Brian goes, hey, yeah, so, um, you know, I told my wife I'd mention it, you know, that the, the things happening in Iran are terrible, you know, and, you know, people are being hung and, and, and, you know, like a serious moment, like, hey, you know, the world is, and it was like, oh, yeah, man, okay, cool.

But Anderson Cooper gets this information and instead of going like, yes, you're right. It is fucking terrible.

It is absolutely awful. What's happening?
