Oh my God.

You're waking up with Sarah and Vinny.

Oh, look at that.

Alice at 973.

Fake Christmas trees, everyone, are now the norm.

Is that so?

Only 17% of people buy a real one.

Wow.

That is, I'm mystified by the number of Christmas tree lots.

They're now the overwhelming favorite.

You know, though, I had a fake Christmas tree for a few years and I just, it just wasn't the same.

It didn't have the same smell.

I want to smell the pine. Yeah, I agree with that. I, we, I live in the mountains in Santa Cruz and or kind of near the mountains, I guess you'd say. And there's a bunch of Christmas tree lots there.

You chop down your own tree? Yeah. Like you actually do the...

Yeah, we saw it that we walk through the trees are all on the hillsides up and down.

So you hope to find one down low, so you don't have to climb on the highway out.

Walking with it in my face and holding my head head like, oh, God, this sucks.

But that is what we do.
