Ladies and gentlemen, this is it.
This is the final show of this event, this thing that we call Christmas.
And I want to make sure that before I do anything, At all.
This being the last show.
Not going to spend a lot of time because you've got stuff to do with your family, things to do.
And we've been through this and we've been, God knows, oh my God, through the travails and the anger and the war and the...
I just want you to know something that I want to thank you.
Very, very simply, I want to thank you for your...
Focus and your attention and your love and just your being here.
This is still, I respectfully submit, one of the most unique, if not the most unique, means of dealing with the public, having both this...
News platform, but also the interactive.
Interactive with me, interactive with each other, and then later on, interactive with people who want to come in after the fact to see how people were reacting.
And that's the most, most important thing.
Because of you.
Because of you.
Because this is participatory.
I don't...
I've got some new folks Watching this.
And people always say, what do you talk about?
Do you talk about news?
I say, you just got to watch this.
You got to watch this and you have to see how this thing is.
It is the only form, am I right?
Brian and Lizzie and everyone else, it's the only, you're Gina, weird hatter, it's the only participatory where you involve yourself in it with us now.
It's not just you're sitting back there.
It's you're reacting.
It's the most incredible thing in the world.
Yeah, it's the news.
Yes, it's timely.
It's whatever.
But you're reacting now.
You can't do that on TV.
You can't do that with Kronk.
I can't do any of the drools on cable news.
They don't want to hear from you.
They don't want to hear from you.
Am I right?
Paul, am I right?
Aspen, am I right?
They don't want to hear from you.
You have no interest to them.
They just want to go in, collect their money, go home and be done with it.
They don't want to interact.
They have no interest in anything you have to say because they frankly don't think you know what you're talking about.
Oh, they won't admit it, but trust me, you know what I'm talking about.
They think they're superior.
They're from this age-old, this kind of like this antediluvian world where they think they're stars or something.
Well, we're not stars.
You're right there, Lizzie?
Look at that list says you're right.
There's something different.
So my friends, I say to you, I make it, I say to you, that this is for you.
I don't want to spend a lot of time.
Mrs. Ellen and I were watching the last two segments of this show.
I think it was on Tinder, a BritBox or whatever, called Archie, about Cary Grant and how...
There was the end of the star world.
Young people don't understand.
There are no stars.
None.
It doesn't exist.
It doesn't exist.
Ibrahim says, a joke would not hurt or would it?
Majority of humans of this world, are you all right?
No, you are all left.
Upcoming year will be pain in order to gain.
Please get the balance ball kit.
Merry Christmas, even though I've been raised without this.
You know, I thank you for that, Abraham.
Thank you.
I gotta say, of course, this evening, today, Mrs. Allen and I went to, I think we went to this local, I don't know what you want to call it.
It's this It's the oldest church, well, I shouldn't say this, but it's the mother house of the Paulist, the Paulian, the Paulist fathers.
And it's their big, whatever.
So we went there, and it happened to be a Spanish mass.
And I went in and we bought some candles.
And I like the idea of fire, to send gifts of fire for dead relatives under, in this...
Room.
It reminds me when I was a kid.
The smell.
The Christmas tree smell.
The eyes full of tinsel and fire.
The peel of a bell and the Christmas tree smell.
I believe in Father Christmas.
But as they're doing their Mass in Spanish, and these very devout Latinos and Spanish people, they're doing their prayers.
And you know what they're saying?
It's beautiful.
But Mrs. L and I went to the little shop and we got these couple of candles.
Actual candles.
And lit them in remembrance of our parents.
This is for you.
Fire.
This symbology of this.
Then we watched and it was the manger.
There's this beautiful church and they have these little sides.
The manger.
It was such...
Remember what this is about.
Remember the story.
I don't want to go into the irony of it.
I don't want to do this.
I'll do that tomorrow.
I'll get into the irony and all this kind of stuff.
Because people are already yelling or whatever.
But there's something about this sense of any time we can stop what we are doing and just enjoy a sense of communal anything.
Like I said, There's so much great stuff.
We're watching historic Christmas and the history of Christmas.
There's so much great...
I love historical things and why it became the 25th and Christmas around the royals and just something different.
But I've been thinking so much about this Cary Grant.
What a troubled guy.
If you believe any of this stuff.
What a troubled man.
Was he gay?
Was he troubled?
I don't know.
He tried his LSD.
He was trying.
He had this most horrible, horrible, horrible childhood and he wanted...
But there are no stars.
There are no stars anymore.
None.
There's nobody even remotely close to this.
And that may not mean anything to you, but it goes to show you how things are changing.
2024 is going to blow your mind.
I'm telling you right now.
2024 is going to blow your mind.
We'll talk more about that tomorrow.
Even the way we're dealing with each other.
Even the way we're dealing with each other.
And I think for the best, I think in many respects, in some respects, there's going to be a return to things that sort of kind of made sense.
It's like when you get back to acoustic guitar, you're not turning your back on electric.
But you're getting back to the sound of the way it really is.
Unadulterated, unmanufactured, unfixed and the like.
I hope everybody had a great day.
I hope everybody ate reasonably well.
You can eat so well.
You can eat so well.
So, so well.
And just eat great stuff.
Great.
There's so much wonderful.
It's also good to eat early.
Planet.
You don't want to feel that bloated.
I hate that bloated feeling.
Oh my god, I hate it.
There's nothing worse.
I hate that.
I hate that.
But it was very, very overcast.
Mrs. Elders, it's beautiful.
The place looks like a Christmas.
It looks like a Christmas gift shop.
I swear to god.
She has such a good taste.
She has little flickering These LED lights, I swear to God, they look like candles.
And they go, oh my God!
They're flickering.
I don't know what they're called, but they look terrific.
And you put them all over the place and they just kind of, they flicker a little bit, but they are not actual fire.
And there's something about fire and there's something about the sound of this.
It's very, very, very, this was a very, very good time.
Very, very calm.
To be with your wife, just to enjoy each other's company, just enjoy little things.
The essence, the most beautiful thing in the world, the most beautiful time you can possibly have is just being together.
Not manufactured, not parties with people pretending to be.
There was a great SNL skit about that.
I'm not suggesting parties are pretend, but sometimes they are.
Sometimes they are.
I'm at a stage, I've always been in my life, where I love authenticity.
God, I hate, I hate people who are phony, and that's why it's so important on days like this.
So tomorrow, we're going to start right back with what we were doing.
What did everybody do today?
Swedish Krona, not Korean.
Thank you, Timothy.
Yes, you're right.
Our good friend, our friend, Ibrahim, this is the Krona.
By the way, the Swedish krona, 500 krona equals a dollar.
That's the exchange rate, S-E-K.
I know what you're thinking.
You think I'm getting North Korean money.
I know what you're thinking.
I know what you're thinking.
You're thinking I'm getting some kind of weird Kim Jong-un currency.
I recognize this.
I understand this, okay?
I understand what you're doing.
And that's the way you are.
And I appreciate that, okay?
I really do.
Look at this.
People are going crazy.
SEL is Korean.
Listen to Eric.
Look at this.
This guy.
Let's see.
SEL 500.
Yes.
SEL.
SEL.
S-E-K.
Let me see.
There was an S-L-L, Sierra Leonean, S-E-K.
Let me see, Korean.
Let's see what Korean is.
South Korean won, W-O-N, is 500 won.
500 South Korean won is 38 cents.
Thank you so much.
Won.
You got to get this one.
I love the these little I love the signs.
Yes, KRW is the one.
South Korean one.
I like the little what am I trying to say?
The various oh, those you know signs and you know what I'm talking about.
Yeah, you know what I'm talking about, because frankly, I have no idea what I'm talking about.
In any event, enough of that, enough of that, enough the thing.
Thank you.
I don't want it to be heavy tonight.
I don't want it to be whatever I want to thank you.
I'm going to start back again tomorrow early, early, early.
I appreciate this.
I want it to at least just, again, just spend no time other than to tell you thank you.
Because you are so terrific.
You are like a family to us.
You have been with us since the beginning.
And I mean this.
I cannot be any more sincere than what I'm saying.
And I just want to just kind of tone it down.
So thank you, dear friends.
We'll be back tomorrow.
Let me also ask you, please, one favor, of course, to please follow this wonderful message.
