I'm into buying things now
so the children can't get them
for Hanukkah or Christmas.
Okay.
Hanukkah especially.
Yeah, Hanukkah definitely especially.
I think we should probably,
considering everything
that's going on in Israel,
maybe we cancel Hanukkah this year.
It's not a bad idea.
Yeah.
I don't care.
You could do it
because I do Christmas now.
Yeah.
That's great.
Yeah.
When you were a kid,
did you get excited for Hanukkah?
If I had a child
and we were celebrating Hanukkah,
you know what I'd get them?
A car branded
with the World Central Kitchen logo.
And I'd say,
little power wheels
with the logo on top
and I'd say,
why don't you go drive this
around the neighborhood
and see if anything happens to you?
And because this year on Hanukkah,
we're learning lessons.
Right.
What the lesson may be,
I don't know.
I'll let you know
what I'm done with my lady game.
We're going to figure out
this Hanukkah thing
once you're done
with your girl game.
But, you know,
Hanukkah was terrible.
It was.
Because my parents
weren't from America
and so basically
they made Hanukkah
into presents.
I had the hardest Hanukkah.
No, I'm not saying that.
Listen, I'm talking
about my struggle.
No one knows how hard
Hanukkah was for me growing up.
I'm talking about my struggle.
Everyone had a nice Hanukkah,
but my parents were
poor immigrants
from a white country
that got canceled.
An entire nation
that was canceled
by the world.
It's true.
This show makes me wish
I had friends.
You do have friends.
I love your dynamic.
Oh my God.
You make fun of each other.
They have no idea.
Basically in America
they made Hanukkah
into a presents thing
to compete with Christmas
because Christmas
looks so nice.
I would get a check.
I would get a check
on night one.
I only got a check
for $50,000.
You know that.
And I had to shop
by myself.
And the other children
would see me at the store
and they would say
there's poor Adam.
There's Adam
who's so poor.
I'm not claiming poor.
But my parents
didn't buy it.
They were like,
no, this is not
Hanukkah.
It's not that important
of a holiday.
Yeah, right, right.
So then I just
see my friends
on Christmas
and it looked
so happy and fun.
God, I hate these guys.
Yeah, yeah.
The last four years
I've done Christmas
and literally four years ago
Christmas Eve.
How can they fly?
How can they fly?
He's going to be
the best streamer ever.
Yeah.
He kind of is.
Why can he fly?
Yeah, and then
basically.
He can't fly.
Motherfucker,
he cannot fly.
Do not let him slap.
Do you fight people
in this?
Yeah, I'm shooting
motherfucker.
That's why I'm playing it.
It's not like,
you know.
It's not total girl.
Yeah, there's some
men parts.
The microphone, Nick.
The microphone.
What?
Wow.
What are you worried about
that we're going to get
content strike?
No, no.
Your mic,
just they can hear you.
They can hear you.
They can hear me.
Anyway, yeah.
God damn.
So like, yeah,
as a 33-year-old man,
I remember I was like
laying in bed at Christmas Eve
and I'm like,
I can't wait to wake up
tomorrow for presents.
Nice.
I was like,
this is the happiest thing
of all time.
That's great.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Fuck Hanukkah.
I'm going to do Christmas
the rest of my life.
And it's not fun at all.
Christmas is the nicest
thing of all time.
It's really a nice thing.
It's so nice.
Yeah, yeah.
Does any other religion
have anything as nice
as Christmas?
Well, Kwanzaa,
I imagine,
is incredible.
Ramadan is pretty fucking sick.
Ramadan is sick, yeah.
No food.
You don't eat anything
all day,
but then at nighttime.
You get to eat.
You go to the buffet, baby.
Yeah.
A little weed trip
to 7-Eleven, dude.
I've been waiting
all day.
What's up?
What's up, dog?
I'm Muslim.
How y'all doing?
You're brown also?
All right.
That's me talking
to the employees
at 7-Eleven.
Oh, I thought you were
doing a Hamed impression.
Yeah, let me get
a two-liter off-brand soda,
a bag of chips,
a can of Pringles,
and a moldy old banana.
Because my girlfriend...
Because I'm celebrating Ramadan.
Yeah, my girlfriend's
in the hospital for Ramadan.
Yeah, I don't buy that
because I've tried Ramadan.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
