0:13.6	When do we actually start celebrating? I feel like,
0:16.3	you always hear mixing, don't put up a Christmas tree into love to Thanksgiving,
0:19.6	at least in America. I saw Brittany Spears had a Christmas tree up in October. Good for her.
0:24.4	Do whatever makes you happy. Random side note. Apparently people who put up holiday
0:28.4	decorations early are happier than people who note. I think it's because we're just

1:36.6	trying to help his son get through it too and of course he's suffering right he's He's in pain, he's grieving, it's Christmas, right?
1:45.2	And he's got a son, he's got his own issues. But he calls his sister.
1:51.5	And is it his sister actually? Maybe he was his wife's sister? Anyway, it doesn't matter. The relationship doesn't matter. But he calls Emma Thompson and he says, like, you know, I'm struggling. I'm paraphrasing here, right? He says right he says basically you know he's suffering he's worried by his son and she says this
