Thanksgiving Traditions: Mac and Cheese Stories
00:02:27
Sully Shaheed
Baker, how was your travels to California?
00:02:31
Baker
I mean, my plane ride didn't, you know, my plane didn't crash, which is always a positive. um My beautiful girlfriend, she's in the other room. She's trying to be quiet right now. So she doesn't pick up anything in the background. But I'm happy to be out here spending time with her, play some golf today.
00:02:48
Baker
Her grandfather kicked my ass today in golf. Absolutely destroyed me.
00:02:52
Sully Shaheed
Oh.
00:02:53
Baker
Absolutely destroyed. Not even close. Her brother-in-law also kicked my ass today golf. Absolutely destroyed. But we have fun.
00:03:03
Baker
We are in charge of we are in charge of the mac and cheese. I don't think it's a it's a coincidence that the black guy is joining Thanksgiving and he's in charge of mac and cheese.
00:03:04
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, that's all that matters.
00:03:14
Baker
Just saying.
00:03:15
Sully Shaheed
Hmm.
00:03:17
Baker
She's off camera right over there looking at me all sorts of crazy. But
00:03:21
Baker
I'm just saying not it's not coincidence.
00:03:21
Chilly
I mean, listen, listen as a as the other white person in the room, I didn't know it was a thing either.
00:03:28
Chilly
I'm grateful that it it's been introduced into my life. So I appreciate the black community for bringing mac and cheese into the fold. So I'm grateful.
00:03:40
Sully Shaheed
And listen, I'll tell you, when ah when I was married um and I did the the the family Thanksgiving for the first time, I, too, was responsible for making a dish.
00:03:51
Chilly
Hmm.
00:03:52
Sully Shaheed
And I said, I'm doing mac and cheese. And then, you know, my my ex-wife is white and her family is white. So it was more so like, I've never had macaroni and cheese with Thanksgiving.
00:04:03
Sully Shaheed
And I'm like, ah excuse you, what did you just say?
00:04:06
Baker
You're going to learn today.
00:04:08
Sully Shaheed
So, you know, I made the bomb mac and cheese, you know what saying? And then all of a sudden, it was every year, Sully's making the macaroni and cheese. I just happen to be the black guy in the family. So, so Chili, you're welcome.
00:04:22
Chilly
Yeah, i'm great I think when we had a Friendsgiving, maybe at your house there in Garfield, I feel like the mac and cheese was there. It may have been the vegan mac and cheese, and that was just as good, too.
00:04:35
Sully Shaheed
So at one of them, there was the vegan mac and cheese that I made. And then one year, mama came through and she made the macaroni and cheese.
00:04:41
Baker
Yeah, Dijon's mom threw down.
00:04:43
Sully Shaheed
And then it was a hit. It was a hit.
00:04:48
Chilly
Yeah, it was good.
00:04:48
Sully Shaheed
The John's mama, whoo, she know how that out.
00:04:51
Chilly
Yeah, man.
00:04:51
Sully Shaheed
It macaroni and cheese.
00:04:52
Chilly
Yeah, there is there' is a lot there was a lot of good vegan items at the one of them.
00:04:53
Baker
and that's
00:04:57
Chilly
I was i feel like, was there vegan mashed potatoes?
00:04:58
Baker
but
00:05:00
Chilly
Give or take?
00:05:00
Baker
But them vegan potatoes.
00:05:00
Sully Shaheed
yeah
00:05:01
Chilly
the
00:05:01
Baker
The vegan potatoes, man!
00:05:02
Chilly

00:05:04
Baker
And I don't, the pork
00:05:07
Chilly
listen Listen, I ain't hating, but the Friendsgiving Thanksgiving food was way better than anything I've had kind of recently. i'm not hating on the food that do. I'm appreciative of the houses I freeload at, but The Friendsgiving food was very delicious.
00:05:26
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, we we we smashed. We smashed that day. There's no doubt about it. No doubt about it.
Is Turkey Overrated? A Humorous Debate
00:05:32
Sully Shaheed
But can can I get into a... ah Can I get into a sidebar with you guys before we start talking about fantasy football? By the way, if you don't know what we do on the DFS Deli, we break down position by position, our favorite place on each game of the slate, seeing as how there's only a three-bagger.
00:05:47
Sully Shaheed
But this week, for this special episode, there will be no um dust bus, and there will be no remembering the fallen. That will happen on Friday's episode, so make sure you turn back.
00:05:57
Sully Shaheed
It's a Friday main slate, all the other good stuff. But the sidebar that I have with my friends all the time is that, Hey, why are we calling this Turkey day?
00:06:09
Sully Shaheed
I'm so tired of that. It is so cliche. Okay. I get it. It's like the thing. and' like, Oh, Turkey's so good. And all this other stuff. Then why I'll only make it once a year. If it's that damn good.
00:06:20
Sully Shaheed
Hmm. And don't give me the deli meat sliced turkey. No, no, no. I'm talking about roasting a whole ass turkey, deep frying a whole ass turkey. Why does only pop up once a year? If it's that good.
00:06:33
Chilly
I mean, I'm just kind of here for the turkey gravy, but...
00:06:37
Baker
May May
00:06:38
Sully Shaheed
Oh, of course you may.
00:06:39
Baker
May I?
00:06:41
Sully Shaheed
You may.
00:06:42
Baker
As the Thanksgiving truther on this show, as y'all see, y'all see behind me, there's a punk ass Christmas tree.
00:06:45
Chilly
He do be that.
00:06:50
Baker
She should not have this Christmas tree up yet. It shouldn't be up yet.
00:06:50
Chilly
Hey, what's wrong I mean, I'm not going to lie.
00:06:53
Chilly
her Her Christmas tree is actually kind of boring. Like, what's the light texture on the tree?
00:07:01
Baker
I mean, next time I mute myself, I'll plug in the tree so you can see the lights.
00:07:04
Chilly
Oh, I appreciate it.
00:07:05
Baker
I got you, fam.
00:07:06
Baker
I got you, fam.
00:07:06
Chilly
Because, you know, that is an S-tier holiday behind you.
00:07:09
Chilly
But you can continue about truth and about Thanksgiving.
00:07:12
Baker
I lied. She's literally crawling, but underneath me to plug this motherfucking hair right now.
00:07:17
Chilly
she needs she She knows.
00:07:20
Baker
There you go. There's the lights.
00:07:21
Chilly
Okay, that's not bad.
00:07:22
Baker
There's the lights.
00:07:23
Chilly
That's not bad.
00:07:24
Baker
It's not great. Like, she's missing, like, a star or some sort of ornament on top. Like, come on, man.
00:07:29
Sully Shaheed
Right, where's my star?
00:07:30
Baker
This is not...
00:07:33
Baker
Uh-oh, do we got robots only back?
00:07:36
Chilly
He is robot. He's robot right now. He'll clear up. Although, if we could screenshot that picture, that'd be really funny. Him just doing like this right now. it just like I'm not that fast on the beer.
00:07:49
Chilly
But if you would like to discuss Thanksgiving...
00:07:54
Baker
Yes. But oh to to go into what Sally's talking about, how turkey is, you know, not that good outside of Thanksgiving. Here's the thing. We reserve it. Turkey is good.
00:08:06
Baker
I'm not going to say that turkey is the best thing of Thanksgiving. I'm going to say that. But We reserve it for one day a year. We don't need it 365. We don't need it 300. We don't need it five. We don't need it 20. We need it one time a year because it's that good. And we appreciate it that one time a year.
00:08:27
Baker
We don't need more. We just do the one time and we move the fuck on with our lives. We cook enough turkey on this one day to survive us the next week any fucking way.
00:08:40
Chilly
so
00:08:40
Baker
Let's be real about
00:08:41
Sully Shaheed
Baker.
00:08:42
Chilly
So Baker uses the appreciative defense.
00:08:42
Sully Shaheed
Baker.
00:08:46
Chilly
What's your defense?
00:08:48
Chilly
Here comes Sully with the Wookiee defense.
00:08:48
Sully Shaheed
Baker, can I ask you a question? i have The Wookiee defense. Now, now, now, Baker. If Chewbacca...
00:08:56
Chilly
yeah Now, Chewbacca is a Wookiee, and he lives on the planet Andor. Now, how Baker, why would a Wookiee live on a desert planet?
00:09:10
Chilly
It just doesn't make sense. Oh, he's got a good point. Oh, yeah.
00:09:16
Sully Shaheed
Baker, I just want to ask, I'm go ask you one thing.
00:09:18
Baker
I hate you people, just so you know. Before you go in, hate you, both of you. Both of you, right now.
00:09:22
Sully Shaheed
As you should, as you should.
00:09:23
Chilly
That's fair.
00:09:25
Sully Shaheed
Baker, um as we are an adult centered podcast and you reserve the turkey because it's so good for once a year and I respect your argument. However, um and I know the answer. This is a very facetious question. It is rhetorical because I know the answer. um You enjoy sex?
00:09:45
Chilly
hmm
00:09:48
Baker
I, my friend, am a good Christian boy. So i don't I don't do those sort of things without being married.
00:09:53
Sully Shaheed
Baker.
00:09:55
Baker
So no, sir, I do i do not enjoy sex because I've never done it before.
00:09:55
Sully Shaheed
Baker.
00:10:00
Sully Shaheed
Baker's a liar. So I'm going to continue on with my point because you clearly see where I'm going with this. If sex is good, you have it multiple times throughout the week, the month, the year, whatever. It's not reserved for one day.
00:10:18
Sully Shaheed
so You mean to tell me that this this turkey that you reserve for one day is better than sex?
00:10:30
Baker
Two things. And I didn't bring this up to my initial point. People who have a pigmentation resembling one of chills tend to add turkey into fucking Christmas too.
00:10:45
Sully Shaheed
Okay. Twice.
00:10:47
Chilly
Um, listen, listen. i don't know how true that is. Now, I've never been around Turkey. Now, if you want to pull out the honey-baked ham for my pigment, then that that that that's that's our lane.
00:11:03
Sully Shaheed
I was going to say, I know he's going the ham route.
00:11:06
Chilly
it's It's ham. I've never had...
00:11:08
Baker
Well, ham crosses both sides. Both sides. We all do ham.
00:11:13
Chilly
Listen, I...
00:11:13
Sully Shaheed
So, so Baker, again, to my initial point, if it's that good, why don't you reserve sex for once a year?
00:11:13
Chilly
like
00:11:22
Baker
First of all, I don't have sex because I'm a good Christian boy. But secondly, even if I did have sex, this is on camera. You can hear it and you can play this back. You can run this back if you want to.
00:11:35
Baker
Honey, we only have a sex once time a year.
00:11:40
Sully Shaheed
And we found out that's a fucking lie. um Chili, I need you to.
00:11:44
Chilly
Yeah.
00:11:44
Sully Shaheed
and And in the YouTube comments, I will leave a timestamp when we actually start talking about football, but only get to talk about Thanksgiving once a year. So I'm going to do it. um I need you your to power rank them.
00:11:56
Sully Shaheed
The top three dishes at Thanksgiving. I need you to power rank them right now.
00:12:01
Chilly
The top three dishes, man. um Well, I think coming in at number three for me, ah because, you know, I am ah in with the black community. Number three is mac and cheese.
00:12:16
Chilly
ah i do i do appreciate some mac and cheese now at at the table.
00:12:21
Baker
Let's go.
00:12:23
Chilly
um Number two... See, like i'm not a very I'm not a very diverse eater. So like I'm really basic. But if you gave me if you give me... I'm a mashed potato kind of guy.
00:12:38
Chilly
so again, Matt, I'm going with the mashed. And then the number one for me is turkey gravy. It's not even a food. It's a side. But I put turkey gravy on everything.
00:12:50
Chilly
The turkey, the potatoes, the rolls. It's... my My plate is... enthwalled in turkey gravy......................
00:13:00
Sully Shaheed
and See, he he considered the turkey gravy as an independent dish. Baker, do you feel the same way about the turkey gravy?
00:13:07
Baker
So this statement might be controversial. It might be.
00:13:10
Sully Shaheed
Mm-hmm.
00:13:11
Baker
My girlfriend might come out the room and be like, hold on.
00:13:11
Sully Shaheed
Okay. Okay.
00:13:13
Baker
You don't like this. This is going to be at the table tomorrow. Don't care.
00:13:20
Baker
I don't like gravy. Any kind of gravy. Turkey
Top Three Thanksgiving Dishes Ranked
00:13:23
Baker
gravy, regular gravy, peanut gravy, oil gravy, any gravy you could possibly make.
00:13:29
Baker
Not a fan.
00:13:29
Chilly
Like beef gravy, brown gravy, this is not for you.
00:13:33
Baker
Nah.
00:13:34
Chilly
But to see that...
00:13:38
Chilly
See... see
00:13:38
Baker
Ever since I was a little baker, ever since I was a little baker, nah, gravy ain't what's it. You put gravy on my mashed potatoes, I won't eat the mashed potatoes.
00:13:47
Chilly
See, as a as a picky eater, like, I don't judge people. So you don't like gravy? You don't like gravy. That's... I don't judge. Because I'm picky. Now, the other, you know... The the other guy in here who does is very diverse in his portfolio that he's actually allowed to eat won't die, he may have a problem with it.
00:14:10
Sully Shaheed
Baker, then rank them your top three Thanksgiving dishes.
00:14:15
Baker
Here's the thing. I'm not going to be very different from my guy. You what I'm saying? My guy. my march My arch enemy. Not very different. But at number at number three, we got to go with the mashed potatoes. I'm a mashed potato kind of guy.
00:14:26
Baker
Here's thing. You can't have the skins and the mashed potatoes, though. Like, you can't have the instant mashed potatoes. You can't have the skins and the mashed potatoes. got to get up in there and mash them fucking taters.
00:14:36
Baker
You can't take the bullshit route.
00:14:36
Sully Shaheed
Okay, no instant, no instant.
00:14:38
Sully Shaheed
Got it, no instant.
00:14:39
Chilly
Who makes instant mashed potatoes?
00:14:40
Baker
You... ill
00:14:42
Sully Shaheed
Lazy motherfuckers.
00:14:43
Chilly
Not me, man.
00:14:44
Baker
What he said.
00:14:45
Chilly
You peel that potato, you cut, cut. Boil them motherfuckers. Yeah. Is
00:14:50
Baker
there's a chance that I may have heard somebody was talking about doing instant mashed potatoes at Thanksgiving when I was going to be at tomorrow and somebody else may have said, nah, we doing mashed potatoes because we ain't doing the instant shit.
00:15:00
Baker
There's a chance.
00:15:00
Sully Shaheed
You just want to start a fight at that point.
00:15:00
Chilly
yeah you what it is her family poor?
00:15:01
Baker
I
00:15:04
Chilly
is her family poor why i don't i don't get it. you
00:15:07
Sully Shaheed
Well, why are we getting the box of mashed potatoes?
00:15:12
Baker
don't know.
00:15:12
Chilly
Come on, now.
00:15:13
Chilly
Come on, man. Is that how y'all do it in California?
00:15:15
Baker
Now,
00:15:16
Chilly
Instant mashed potatoes?
00:15:18
Baker
Y'all, I'm not from California. I'm from the greater Ohio area.
00:15:21
Chilly
you're a baker Baker, I understand, but you're associated with the y'all part.
00:15:26
Baker
Fair, fair, I am.
00:15:27
Chilly
excuse
00:15:29
Baker
Even though i'm not having sex with the y'all part because I'm a good Christian boy. I
00:15:34
Sully Shaheed
Because it's so good.
00:15:34
Chilly
Don't...
00:15:36
Sully Shaheed
We can wait for once a year.
00:15:38
Baker
don't know, y'all probably didn't hear it, my girlfriend laughed in the other room. ah But here's where we're going differ, Joe. I'm a go cranberry, but not the canned cranberry. The legit, like you got to make the real cranberry sauce.
00:15:53
Baker
Because like you and your turkey, Raven, I put that real cranberry, not the bullshit cranberry.
00:15:53
Chilly
okay
00:15:59
Baker
I put that shit on everything. If your shit over here looking like so over here looking circular, yeah, I'm good.
00:16:06
Sully Shaheed
What the...
00:16:07
Baker
yeah yeah sayport up here Now I'm good. I'm good. I promise you I'm good. But when that shit looking good, that shit looking good. Cause you can see the chunks of cranberry. You can see the colors. You can see the form. You see like, it's not just circular.
00:16:22
Baker
Oh, come on, man. I put that shit on every thing. And then one is it as simple. Chill. You put it at three. I don't put it at one. It's that mac and cheese.
00:16:33
Baker
Because when you beat it up like it's some good mac and cheese, make it that sound. Come on, man. That mac and cheese is number one. You got to have that mac and cheese at Thanksgiving.
00:16:44
Sully Shaheed
Gotta have mac of cheese at Thanksgiving. If you're a part of a family that doesn't have the mac and cheese at Thanksgiving, go home or date somebody that's black.
00:16:46
Baker
You got to.
00:16:52
Baker
Or cut the show off because we don't like you anyway.
00:16:56
Sully Shaheed
Make sure in the YouTube comments, rank them. You're a top three Thanksgiving dishes. um or I'm going go two contrarian picks, and i'm gonna play the chalk. Okay? So let's play the chalk. Number one is the mac and cheese. Okay?
00:17:09
Sully Shaheed
We're playing the mac and cheese. We're putting them in the lineup. We're not thinking about it. The rest is just going to have to hit to make the plate successful and get to the top of the tournament plate charts. Okay? Okay?
Understanding Collard Greens: A Light-Hearted Guide
00:17:21
Sully Shaheed
But at number three, I'm going have to go a little contrarian. It's got some ownership. It always has ownership, but it's not necessarily chalky. I got to go with the dinner roll and specifically the Hawaiian sweet roll. If you don't have a Hawaiian sweet roll, you can take that straight out the package. I don't give a damn. ain't got bake.
00:17:40
Sully Shaheed
No bread. Take that motherfucker out the package, put that shit on the side, and I'm eating some Hawaiian sweet rolls. Okay? Now, number two is going to be controversial because it's going to be found at only a select Thanksgiving.
00:17:54
Sully Shaheed
And that, my friend, is the collard green. Okay? I will smash the shit out of some well-cooked collard greens. Put that shit right on the side with my rolls, with the juices falling off into the roll.
00:18:09
Baker
Gotta have the juices. Gotta have the juices.
00:18:09
Sully Shaheed
Oh, man.
00:18:12
Sully Shaheed
Man, collard greens comes in at number two. And then of course, like I said before, the mac and cheese. you You got to have the mac and cheese. You just got to. Just got to.
00:18:21
Baker
So can ask you a quick question?
00:18:22

Baker
Hold on. Hold on.
00:21:23
Baker

00:21:23
Chilly
No.
00:21:31
Sully Shaheed
Like a nice cheese and cracker tray.
00:21:33
Chilly
She said yes.
00:21:35
Baker
She did say yes. So apparently I'm doing appetizers tomorrow. I don't.
00:21:39
Chilly
Cool.
00:21:39
Baker
I thought I ate what I ate. didn't think I had appetizers. Fuck.
00:21:44
Sully Shaheed
Yes. So the Lions game, at appetizer.
00:21:46
Baker
but an Okay.
00:21:49
Baker
Well, to be fair, she did make a great point. They Italian, so they just eat a fuck ton of food.
00:21:54
Chilly
that's a disqu That's a disqualification.
00:21:54
Sully Shaheed
yeah. yeah
00:21:58
Baker
She is Italian as fuck.
00:22:00
Chilly
as a... As somebody who has been, like, so the one year where my uncle and my aunt and my aunt's side, they held, like, a Thanksgiving at, like, a nice little hall thing.
00:22:13
Chilly
And they're Italian. So, like, the spread was anything that I've never been a part of. Because, like, you know what you know what you know what wasn't there? Turkey. There ain't no fucking turkey there. Right? Yeah.
00:22:30
Chilly
That was even the thing. You were getting lasagna, spaghetti, meatballs. I mean, you were getting everything but turkey.
00:22:38
Sully Shaheed
turkey is ass
00:22:40
Chilly
a
00:22:41
Baker
To be fair, my my future father-in-law is cooking the turkey tomorrow. And this the first time I think i think he's ah roasting the turkey. Or not roasting, but smoking the turkey.
00:22:51
Baker
First time having a smoked turkey. It's my first time having a smoked turkey for Thanksgiving. First time.
00:22:51
Sully Shaheed
And it's ass.
00:22:55
Chilly
Well, you can text us on the side and give it a grade. You can put it in a tier.
00:22:59
Sully Shaheed
That's right. You sure can. You sure can. So Packers, Lions, all our starts, all our stacks, of course, start with the QB.
00:23:01
Baker
Will do. Will do.
00:23:08
Sully Shaheed
Are you interested in either side of this game? Or are we looking at pieces? Baker, by
Quarterback Strategy for Lions-Packers
00:23:14
Sully Shaheed
all means.
00:23:14
Baker
I mean, can is Jordan Love going to catch a touchdown pass like Jameis Winston did?
00:23:20
Chilly
no because join love doesn't know that victory comes from the lord
00:23:21
Baker
I'm still interested.
00:23:26
Baker
I mean, here's the thing. and And to that point, Jordan Love was not born near water.
00:23:29
Chilly
it
00:23:35
Chilly
were we don't
00:23:35
Baker
So he was not born different.
00:23:37
Chilly
We don't know where he was born.
00:23:40
Baker
And I just know he was not born near water.
00:23:42
Sully Shaheed
I mean, a quick Wikipedia search will take care of that, but we know he doesn't seem like the person that was born around water.
00:23:54
Sully Shaheed
ah ah Oh, my Lord.
00:23:58
Baker
But,
00:23:58
Sully Shaheed
So are the horses are the horses preparing for battle, Baker?
00:24:02
Baker
i mean, I'm just so thankful that I get to play football here in Detroit, Michigan on Thanksgiving.
00:24:09
Chilly
But,
00:24:12
Chilly
maybe Baker, you can kind of maybe tell me yes or no. Is Bakersfield, California near water?
00:24:22
Chilly
I don't know if that's in the state or on the – as somebody who is literally probably pretty close, you want to i' take a look at that?
00:24:34
Baker
I'm going to go to the source.
00:24:35
Sully Shaheed
Enlighten us.
00:24:39
Baker
I ain't from here. I'm from the great Ohio area. Honey!
00:24:43
Sully Shaheed
Oh my God. How many pounds is going to make an appearance on this show?
00:24:49
Baker
Bakersfield, California. Where is it?
00:24:52
Baker
Middle fucking nowhere. so No, it's not near water.
00:24:55
Chilly
It is not near water.
00:24:56
Sully Shaheed
He was not born around water.
00:24:57
Baker
and he was
00:24:58
Chilly
He is not, he is not different. Um, I mean, appreciate it.
00:25:02
Baker
So I went to i went through the source. I got sources over here. I got sources. I'm in the air.
00:25:07
Chilly
So, uh, I think the way to kind of look at QB this, week this is probably going to be two of the lower own QBs on the slate.
00:25:07
Baker
I got you, man.
00:25:14
Chilly
Um, that's where both draft Kings and FanDuel, I'm more interested in the Jordan Love side of it. Um, This Detroit secondary um is pretty susceptible to the pass. um They do stop the run pretty well. Josh Jacobs may be back, which kind of makes that ah backfield a little bit more intriguing. Probably makes it more of a more of a split than anything because they do want to give Wilson some work.
00:25:44
Chilly
So I'd be interested in the Jordan Love side of it. Of course, the the devil's advocate to that is, like, what wide receivers do you play with them? At least Jaden Reed has been ruled out, so the tree gets a little bit smaller.
00:25:57
Chilly
i don't think you have to play Musgrave or the Fitzpatrick guy with him. um I mean, if you get if you want to get a little bit weird, you can. But I'd be kind of interested. I mean, Jarrett Goff has no ownership, so if you want to play Jarrett Goff and pray,
00:26:14
Chilly
um that automatically gives you an amazing head start at the beginning of the day, especially if he hits. um You know, you can kind of just round yourself into the ti some chalk, but I'd be interested in the Jordan and Love side of things in terms of the QB position.
00:26:32
Sully Shaheed
Hey, listen, chill. Jarrett Goff was born in Novato, California, which is right by the Gulf of Mexico. So he actually was born around water.
00:26:45
Chilly
What?
00:26:47
Baker
so He's just different.
00:26:48
Sully Shaheed
So he's just different.
00:26:48
Baker
He's born different.
00:26:49
Sully Shaheed
So, you know, if you wannave started you want to start the day with Jared Goff, you can do so. You know what I'm saying? I think like, and Chill, you may be able to attest to this a little bit, but a lot of people like to put players in the early game so they can see them play.
00:27:05
Sully Shaheed
And that just might be a newbie thing that the industry has done. I know that the industry has gotten a lot sharper, but like it used to be we're about to start eating at like around noon or something like that. But my players are playing.
