Hey, Peter.

Hey, what are you thankful for?

Well, I'm so thankful that today's Thanksgiving,

and we're not doing one of those corny,

my seven albums I'm most thankful for.

Oh, okay.

No kind of blue today.

Okay.

Sorry.

Sorry.

Daily music advice and inspiration coming at you. Coming at you. Happy Thanksgiving, Peter. Happy Thanksgiving to Adam. Happy Thanksgiving listeners. So everybody has their favorite holiday. This is by far my favorite holiday. Is it? I didn't know that. I remember. No, I do remember you saying that now. You know how much I love a meal. Yes. You know how much of a food person I am. You know, a foodie. Yeah. Well, you know what I really like?

I realized over the years. What? More than anything, I just like being around table with people that I like for hours on end. Well, you're going to hate this year's Thanksgiving then because that's not on the agenda. Well, this is an ironic Thanksgiving because Thanksgiving, if you don't, if you're not American, this is American Thanksgiving. It's our feast day. It's usually where we spend the day with family eating until we're sick. And that's what we've been doing. And then watching football until we get sicker. Yeah, that's right. But that's what we've been doing during the whole pandemic is just staying with our family eating too much. And so, yeah, this is a weird Thanksgiving. But I'm still looking forward to it. Yeah, no, it is. It's a nice time.

I love tapping into the true meaning or whatever, whatever one's interpretation of giving thanks.

You know, we know that there's a little bit of a sorted past.

We don't want to get into that.

I know I've gotten into that before of the origins of this.

But I think like, you know what, maybe the Canadian Thanksgiving.

I don't know much about that. I know it was either last weekend or this weekend. It's very soon around here. I bet it's a little nobler and more, uh, better origin. So maybe we could tap into that one. And that's just a Canadian stereotype. Is that no more noble. It's better in Canada, yeah, yeah, yeah. I did a taste test recently by accident of maple syrup from Wisconsin, which was very good, and then maple syrup from Canada, which was a little better. I don't know. It wasn't a representative sample, but I'm just saying it. It's just a little colder up there. It's a little colder. But, you know, yes, there is maybe a little soared beginning to this holiday, but I can't hate on a holiday that's all about eating and being with your family and being grateful there's nothing wrong with that in general yeah it's great and it's such a family time so yeah it's a little bittersweet I know for a lot of folks this year I would just say that you know if you can't be with your loved ones and extended family like we're not doing anything I mean we usually it's usually a big group with us and it's just going to be the same old four people I've been looking at every night for dinner for the last eight months are we gonna eat this tofurki now are we all four gonna okay oh we go to Torfric but no it's it's always special and I think I remember when I was a kid you remember you might be a little bit young for this but but like on holidays, you used to make long distance calls.

Yeah.

Yeah.
