[00:00:02] This is a Bramble Jam Podcast
[00:00:12] It's the Christmas Morning Podcast
[00:00:14] Everyone join if you can
[00:00:18] Christmas greatest fans
[00:00:22] Scotty and Bram
[00:00:23] If you and me
[00:00:26] Yes it is
[00:00:28] Welcome everybody to another episode of Christmas Morning
[00:00:31] It's Tuesday, it's November 1st, 5th
[00:00:33] And it's Election Day
[00:00:35] Maybe you're listening to this show as you drive off to
[00:00:38] The polls and you're just looking for anything positive
[00:00:42] Thank you for picking us this morning
[00:00:44] It means a lot
[00:00:45] I'm Bram, I'm here with Scott
[00:00:46] Scott, Merry Christmas, Happy Election Day to you
[00:00:49] Merry Christmas to you, Brandon
[00:00:51] What a good start we had yesterday
[00:00:54] And I'm kind of already, you know, I'm getting into it
[00:00:57] I'm really settling into that Christmas groove
[00:01:00] Scotty, I don't think anybody
[00:01:02] I don't want to say anybody
[00:01:04] But I think most people listening have never done a daily show before
[00:01:07] And so I will let them know that it is always daunting
[00:01:10] As we head into a new season of daily
[00:01:12] We're out of practice
[00:01:14] We haven't done it daily since last holiday season
[00:01:17] But
[00:01:17] We've got a new theme song
[00:01:19] I know, I know
[00:01:20] We've been doing this for five seasons now
[00:01:21] And you go into autopilot when you hear the music
[00:01:24] And all of a sudden it's very jarring
[00:01:25] It's different, but it is wonderful
[00:01:27] It's great
[00:01:27] Shout out to the little red ambulance
[00:01:29] But it is daunting
[00:01:30] But it doesn't take long for us to get into it
[00:01:33] It's always like, are we really doing this?
[00:01:35] And then we start doing it
[00:01:35] I'm like, yes, we are doing it
[00:01:37] And we're thrilled to be back for another season, Scotty
[00:01:41] And I understand
[00:01:42] We still got mail
[00:01:44] Which is exciting
[00:01:44] This show is very heavily driven by the audience
[00:01:48] So it's always good when we have mail
[00:01:50] I see the mailbag moving
[00:01:51] So let's open that sucker up
[00:01:52] Letters
[00:01:53] We get letters
[00:01:55] We get stacks and stacks of letters
[00:01:59] I've got an email from David Scarborough
[00:02:00] David says, hi guys and Shannon
[00:02:02] I loved the party episode
[00:02:04] To answer your question
[00:02:05] We do not make the entire book at once
[00:02:08] Now if you didn't hear the party episode
[00:02:10] David sent us his family cookbook
[00:02:13] That's right
[00:02:13] Scarborough Fair
[00:02:14] It's coming back to me now
[00:02:15] Mexican food from Texas
[00:02:16] And it was just chock full
[00:02:19] Of the most wonderful sounding foods
[00:02:21] And we put the question out to David
[00:02:23] And said, do you make all of this?
[00:02:25] How?
[00:02:25] How does this happen?
[00:02:27] How does this come together?
[00:02:28] So David replied to us
[00:02:30] And said the typical menu would be as follows
[00:02:32] Enchiladas, tacos, beans, rice, guacamole, pico
[00:02:35] And bunuelos
[00:02:37] And he says the bunuelos are a personal favorite
[00:02:39] Dipped in paste, medium, or hot picante sauce
[00:02:42] First, stop selling
[00:02:43] This sounds so amazing
[00:02:46] We also shred a lot of cheese
[00:02:48] And chop many, many jalapenos
[00:02:50] Tomatoes, onions, and lettuce
[00:02:52] The vegetables are insane
[00:02:53] So the person on pico and guac
[00:02:55] Has to chop the veggies
[00:02:56] The meat is made as filling
[00:02:58] So like a restaurant
[00:02:58] You can fill a taco shell
[00:02:59] Put it on a tostada
[00:03:01] Make an enchilada, etc
[00:03:02] Once the filling is made
[00:03:03] You can quickly apply it to any entree you wish
[00:03:05] Alright, that makes sense
[00:03:06] If my mom gets ambitious
[00:03:08] She will also add chili rodeno
[00:03:10] We do nachos, chilies, desserts
[00:03:12] And other dishes on birthdays
[00:03:13] Football games
[00:03:14] And other occasions
[00:03:15] If someone wants to get in the kitchen
[00:03:18] And help cook
[00:03:18] They are welcome to add
[00:03:19] Whatever dish they want
[00:03:20] My kitchen can handle
[00:03:22] Three to four people cooking
[00:03:23] But it's cramped
[00:03:24] We do not make our own tortillas
[00:03:26] Because here in Texas
[00:03:27] It's easy to get good fresh tortillas
[00:03:29] And tamales
[00:03:30] They're not all equal
[00:03:31] So you have to find the right place
[00:03:33] Occasionally we have a door-to-door
[00:03:35] Tamale saleswoman
[00:03:37] I do not open my door to solicitors
[00:03:39] Except for tamales
[00:03:40] And it's really the only food
[00:03:41] That I'll buy
[00:03:42] Without caring about
[00:03:43] How or who makes it
[00:03:45] It will be my downfall someday
[00:03:47] That was my first thought
[00:03:48] When I read that brand
[00:03:50] Like beef
[00:03:51] Unrefrigerated beef here
[00:03:52] Ding dong
[00:03:54] Once my mama-san
[00:03:55] My grandmother
[00:03:56] Passed in the mid-90s
[00:03:57] The number of people
[00:03:58] Dwindled from 35 to 45
[00:04:00] To a little over a dozen
[00:04:02] Because that kind of life event
[00:04:04] Fractures the family
[00:04:05] The cousins took their copy
[00:04:06] And it morphs into something
[00:04:07] Similar yet different
[00:04:08] For example
[00:04:09] My family needs to update it
[00:04:10] With three more dishes
[00:04:11] We incorporate every year
[00:04:12] Such as pico de gallo
[00:04:13] Fried pies
[00:04:15] And tamales
[00:04:15] Oh
[00:04:16] Fried pies
[00:04:17] Funny thing though
[00:04:18] This book came from
[00:04:20] My father's mother
[00:04:20] My parents divorced in 1984
[00:04:22] But my mother still cooked
[00:04:23] These dishes
[00:04:24] My parents were rare
[00:04:25] And remained friends
[00:04:26] Even when both remarried
[00:04:27] Because my stepdad
[00:04:28] Was an incredible man
[00:04:29] And encouraged civility
[00:04:30] They would invite my dad
[00:04:31] To Christmas dinner
[00:04:32] Every year
[00:04:32] To enjoy mama-san's recipes
[00:04:34] Up until he died in 2020
[00:04:36] This book has healing powers
[00:04:38] P.S.
[00:04:39] I have been thinking
[00:04:40] About the cookbook
[00:04:41] If any of your listeners
[00:04:42] Really want it
[00:04:43] Feel free to send it to them
[00:04:44] But they have to promise
[00:04:46] To make a $10 drop
[00:04:47] In a Salvation Army bucket
[00:04:48] This Christmas
[00:04:49] What's a
[00:04:50] That's a fun thought
[00:04:51] So if anybody
[00:04:51] Is interested in it
[00:04:53] Email me
[00:04:53] Christmasmorningpodcast
[00:04:54] At gmail.com
[00:04:55] David thanks for
[00:04:56] The follow up email
[00:04:58] I'm so hungry
[00:04:59] Brian
[00:04:59] Sounds so good
[00:05:00] I'm very hungry too
[00:05:02] The words
[00:05:04] Fried pies
[00:05:05] Oh yeah
[00:05:05] I like both of those words
[00:05:07] I love them both
[00:05:08] They can't be
[00:05:08] Can't be bad
[00:05:09] Thank you so much
[00:05:10] For that email
[00:05:11] And that follow up
[00:05:11] You can put anything
[00:05:12] You want in a fried pie
[00:05:13] It could be savory
[00:05:14] It could be sweet
[00:05:16] That's right
[00:05:17] Now Scotty
[00:05:18] In the magical box
[00:05:19] Of unending goodies
[00:05:21] From Jill and Xavier

[00:05:28] Which are very fun
[00:05:30] I am putting some
[00:05:31] In my beard

[00:05:37] Smaller than mine
[00:05:38] I keep my beard
[00:05:39] Trim
[00:05:40] Yes
[00:05:40] Maybe this is
[00:05:41] Going to be the
[00:05:42] Thing that gets

[00:05:43] Yours is much
[00:05:44] More Sasquatch
[00:05:45] Like
[00:05:46] How is this
[00:05:47] Working for you
[00:05:47] Scotty
[00:05:48] Well I'm clipping
[00:05:48] It to my nose
[00:05:49] That's about
[00:05:50] The best I guess

[00:06:06] Ball ornaments
[00:06:07] That people have

[00:06:18] Of stuff

[00:06:19] Nine of them
[00:06:20] Even though
[00:06:20] As I'm putting
[00:06:21] Them on
[00:06:22] It feels like
[00:06:23] A thousand
[00:06:23] It feels like
[00:06:24] I was gonna say
[00:06:25] What you should do
[00:06:25] Is put a new one
[00:06:26] On every day
[00:06:27] Like it's
[00:06:28] Like it's
[00:06:29] An advent calendar

[00:06:31] Won't last for

[00:08:08] This week
[00:08:09] Is
[00:08:10] Subpar
[00:08:10] Are you
[00:08:11] Ready
[00:08:11] Okay
[00:08:11] Let's
[00:08:12] Find out
[00:08:12] Why
[00:08:13] Did the
[00:08:13] Snowman
[00:08:14] Get
[00:08:14] Lost
[00:08:15] Oh
[00:08:17] Because
[00:08:18] The sun
[00:08:19] Came up
[00:08:19] No
[00:08:20] He didn't
[00:08:20] Snow
[00:08:20] His way
[00:08:21] Home
[00:08:23] That was
[00:08:24] Barely
[00:08:24] Yesterday
[00:08:25] Yeah
[00:08:25] But
[00:08:26] We're
[00:08:26] In the
[00:08:26] Right
[00:08:27] Direction
[00:08:27] I
[00:08:27] Liked
[00:08:28] It
[00:08:28] I
[00:08:28] Thought
[00:08:28] It
[00:08:28] Was
[00:08:28] Nice
[00:08:29] Let's
[00:08:29] Do
[00:08:29] The
[00:08:29] Countdown
[00:08:30] Let's
[00:08:30] Do
[00:08:31] It
[00:08:36] 50
[00:08:37] Days
[00:08:37] Into
[00:08:38] The
[00:08:41] Big
[00:08:42] Five
[00:08:42] Oh
[00:08:42] Scotty
[00:08:43] We're
[00:08:44] About
[00:08:44] To
[00:08:45] Turn
[00:08:45] A
[00:08:45] Very
[00:08:46] Big
[00:08:46] Corner
[00:08:46] Here
[00:08:47] And
[00:08:47] I
[00:08:47] Couldn't
[00:08:47] Be
[00:08:48] Happier
[00:08:48] About
[00:08:48] It
[00:08:48] I
[00:08:49] Can't
[00:08:49] Believe
[00:08:50] It
[00:08:50] I
[00:08:50] I
[00:08:50] Just
[00:08:51] Can't
[00:08:51] Believe
[00:08:51] It
[00:08:51] 50
[00:08:52] Sounds
[00:08:52] Like
[00:08:53] It's
[00:08:53] It's
[00:08:54] One
[00:08:54] It
[00:08:54] Might
[00:08:54] As well
[00:08:55] Be
[00:08:55] One
[00:08:55] Day
[00:08:55] Yeah
[00:08:55] Well
[00:08:56] Some
[00:08:56] Some
[00:08:56] People
[00:08:56] Might
[00:08:56] Think
[00:08:56] You're
[00:08:57] Saying
[00:08:57] 15

[00:09:32] Scotty
[00:09:33] Here's
[00:09:33] An
[00:09:33] Interesting
[00:09:34] Story
[00:09:35] And
[00:09:45] In
[00:09:45] The
[00:09:45] English
[00:09:46] Language
[00:09:47] Because
[00:09:48] That's
[00:09:49] The
[00:09:49] Language

[00:09:54] Scotty
[00:09:54] What
[00:09:55] About
[00:09:55] Our

[00:10:02] Their
[00:10:02] Own
[00:10:02] Native
[00:10:02] Tongue
[00:10:03] You
[00:10:03] Might
[00:10:03] Be
[00:10:03] Wondering
[00:10:03] To
[00:10:04] Yourself
[00:10:04] Well
[00:10:05] With
[00:10:05] The
[00:10:05] Help
[00:10:05] Of
[00:10:06] What
[00:10:07] They
[00:10:07] Are
[00:10:07] Calling
[00:10:09] Responsibly
[00:10:09] Trained
[00:10:10] Artificial
[00:10:11] Intelligence
[00:10:11] We
[00:10:12] Now
[00:10:13] Have
[00:10:13] A
[00:10:13] Version
[00:10:14] Of
[00:10:14] Rockin'
[00:10:15] Around
[00:10:15] The
[00:10:15] Christmas
[00:10:16] Tree
[00:10:16] Sung
[00:10:17] In
[00:10:18] The
[00:10:18] Voice
[00:10:19] Of
[00:10:19] Brenda
[00:10:20] Lee
[00:10:20] But
[00:10:21] In
[00:10:21] Spanish
[00:10:24] So
[00:10:25] It's
[00:10:25] The
[00:10:25] Spanish
[00:10:26] Version
[00:10:26] Of
[00:10:27] The
[00:10:27] Song
[00:10:27] It
[00:10:28] Sounds
[00:10:28] Like
[00:10:28] Brenda
[00:10:29] Lee
[00:10:29] But
[00:10:30] It
[00:10:30] Is
[00:10:30] Responsibly
[00:10:32] Trained
[00:10:32] Artificial
[00:10:33] Intelligence
[00:10:34] The
[00:10:35] Song
[00:10:36] Is
[00:10:36] Out
[00:10:37] People
[00:10:37] Are
[00:10:38] Beginning
[00:10:38] To
[00:10:39] Listen
[00:10:39] To
[00:10:40] It
[00:10:40] And
[00:10:40] There
[00:10:41] Are
[00:10:41] Obviously
[00:10:41] Rightfully
[00:10:42] So
[00:10:42] A lot
[00:10:43] Of
[00:10:43] Takes
[00:10:44] About
[00:10:45] Whether
[00:10:45] Or
[00:10:45] This
[00:10:46] Is
[00:10:47] A
[00:10:47] Good
[00:10:47] Thing
[00:10:48] Or
[00:10:48] Not
[00:10:48] Obviously
[00:10:49] Brenda
[00:10:49] Lee
[00:10:49] Is
[00:11:09] Scott
[00:11:10] Maybe
[00:11:10] We
[00:11:10] Can
[00:11:10] Ask
[00:11:10] Her
[00:11:10] But
[00:11:11] An
[00:11:11] Interesting
[00:11:12] Thing
[00:11:12] When
[00:11:14] Calls
[00:11:14] There
[00:11:16] Is
[00:11:17] Like
[00:11:17] A
[00:11:18] Use
[00:11:18] I
[00:11:18] Think
[00:11:19] For
[00:11:19] This
[00:11:20] Like
[00:11:20] Randy
[00:11:21] Travis
[00:11:21] Who
[00:11:22] Unfortunately
[00:11:22] Had a
[00:11:23] Stroke
[00:11:23] And
[00:11:23] Can
[00:11:23] No
[00:11:24] Longer
[00:11:24] Sing
[00:11:24] Had
[00:11:25] These
[00:11:25] Songs
[00:11:25] That
[00:11:25] He
[00:11:26] Wanted
[00:11:26] To
[00:11:26] Put
[00:11:26] Out
[00:11:26] And
[00:11:27] So
[00:11:27] He
[00:11:27] Used
[00:11:27] A
[00:11:27] Similar
[00:11:29] AI
[00:11:29] Voice
[00:11:30] Technology
[00:11:31] To
[00:11:31] Put
[00:11:31] Out
[00:11:31] A
[00:11:31] Brand
[00:11:32] New
[00:11:32] Song
[00:11:32] That
[00:11:32] Sounds
[00:11:33] Just
[00:11:33] Like
[00:11:33] Him
[00:11:33] But
[00:11:34] It
[00:11:34] Is
[00:11:35] His
[00:11:36] Choice
[00:11:36] That's
[00:11:36] Right
[00:11:36] So
[00:11:39] But
[00:11:40] It
[00:11:40] Is
[00:11:40] Interesting
[00:11:40] And
[00:11:41] I
[00:11:41] Imagine
[00:11:41] If
[00:11:41] You
[00:11:41] Are
[00:11:42] A
[00:11:43] Spanish
[00:11:43] Speaking
[00:11:44] Person
[00:11:44] And
[00:11:44] You
[00:11:45] Love
[00:11:45] This
[00:11:45] Song
[00:11:46] And
[00:11:46] You
[00:11:46] Always
[00:11:46] Wondered
[00:11:47] I
[00:11:47] Wonder
[00:11:47] What
[00:11:47] It
[00:11:48] Would
[00:11:48] Sound
[00:11:48] Like
[00:11:48] This
[00:11:49] Could
[00:11:49] Be
[00:11:49] Cool
[00:11:49] For
[00:11:50] You
[00:11:50] But
[00:11:50] Again
[00:11:50] It's
[00:11:51] Just
[00:11:51] I
[00:11:51] Don't
[00:11:51] Know
[00:11:52] If
[00:11:52] Brenda Lee
[00:12:10] Knew
[00:12:11] Or
[00:12:11] In
[00:12:41] So it's got the Brenda Lee stamp of approval.
[00:12:43] And so I say A-OK in my book.
[00:12:46] Yep.
[00:12:46] If the artist signed off on it, I say that's totally fine.
[00:12:50] I don't know.
[00:12:50] Sounded Brenda Lee-esque to me.
[00:12:53] It did.
[00:12:53] It definitely, if you listened, one, we're so used to the original, which has a bit of
[00:13:00] a crackle to it, a nostalgia to it, and just the way in which it sounds.
[00:13:05] This voice was crisp as could be, and there was also a bit of computer to it.
[00:13:12] It didn't quite sound human because it's not.
[00:13:15] And so if you listen closely, I think you can hear that.
[00:13:18] But it definitely is interesting.
[00:13:20] It definitely is interesting how, for better or worse, you do hear Brenda Lee.
[00:13:26] You hear her style.
[00:13:28] But it sounds to me like somebody doing an impression of Brenda Lee.
[00:13:32] But OK, fine.
[00:13:33] In a sense, it is.
[00:13:34] It's a computer doing an impression.
[00:13:36] I think we've beaten this one to death.
[00:13:38] If she's happy with it, then I'm happy.
[00:13:40] Yeah, I would love to hear what people maybe that.
[00:13:43] Are there any Spanish speaking people that listen to our show that are really enjoying
[00:13:48] this?
[00:13:49] I'd be interested to hear from them because if you grew up and you just always heard Rock
[00:13:53] Around the Christmas Tree in English, like, is this something that you wanted?
[00:13:56] I don't know.
[00:13:57] Is it was anybody asking for this?
[00:13:59] I don't know.
[00:13:59] That's a good question.
[00:14:00] So I would love to hear from people that are listeners to see if they have thoughts on
[00:14:03] this and if it met any sort of need that they had in their lives.
[00:14:08] So an interesting update on the race to AI takeover.
[00:14:14] I don't know.
[00:14:14] I don't know.
[00:14:15] Let's let's take a quick break, Scotty.
[00:14:17] Let's come back and we'll get to some TV listings and Christmas season battle here on Christmas
[00:14:22] morning.
[00:14:27] Welcome back, Scotty.

[00:14:32] And so I don't want to waste any more time because we got TV listings to get to.

[00:15:44] Lots to look forward to on the TV.
[00:15:47] Let's get to the Christmas music battle.
[00:15:49] Today is Tuesday, which means it's original Christmas music day during the holiday season.
[00:15:55] We each bring an original Christmas tune and we battle it.
[00:15:59] Up first, we have Around the Power Pop Tree by David Woodard.
[00:16:05] Hmm.
[00:16:09] Think I'm gonna be sad.
[00:16:11] I think it's today.
[00:16:14] I found it under the Christmas tree.
[00:16:22] My first very own record LP.
[00:16:29] Till Christmas is 76.
[00:16:32] It was the beach for his greatest hits.
[00:17:03] Christmas like I love you.
[00:17:05] All right.
[00:17:06] I liked that.
[00:17:06] Yeah, it was nice.
[00:17:07] It was upbeat.
[00:17:08] It was like, I like that little poppin' organ there.
[00:17:11] I do like the poppin' organ.
[00:17:12] Yeah.
[00:17:13] I like a poppin' organ.
[00:17:15] Up next, we got Christmas in the Bahamas by Reindeer Tribe.
[00:17:19] The snow is falling in the countryside.
[00:17:23] But it's just bloody cold here in the city.
[00:17:26] The Christmas bells are ringing bright.
[00:17:30] But I can't hear a thing that's such a pity.
[00:18:26] Well, that reminded me of one of my favorite Christmas songs by Kenny Chesney.
[00:18:29] All I Want for Christmas is a Real Good Tan.
[00:18:32] Uh-huh.
[00:18:32] Which, that's not my style of Christmas, but it is one of the catchiest songs I've ever heard.
[00:18:38] And if I hear it, oh, it's stuck in my head for weeks.
[00:18:41] Big day for organs, though, for us.
[00:18:43] It is.
[00:18:44] Another song featuring an organ.
[00:18:45] And we didn't even talk about that.
[00:18:46] It's Oregon Tuesday.
[00:18:48] We didn't even talk about it.
[00:18:49] So it worked out quite well.
[00:18:51] You can vote right now.
[00:18:52] Link is in the description.
[00:18:53] And good news is, Scott, he's going to be back tomorrow with another episode, another battle.
[00:18:57] We're going to keep on going.
[00:18:59] All right.
[00:18:59] Sounds great.
[00:19:00] See you tomorrow, everybody.
[00:19:01] Merry Christmas.
[00:19:13] You're about to hear some ads that help pay for our trip back and forth to the North Pole.
