Hold up. Every day I wake up. Wake your ass up. The Breakfast Club. Y' all finished or y' all done? What? Lauryn was just texting me. She was saying that Martha Stewart was recently on the Today show and she was talking about Thanksgiving and she started an argument yesterday on social media about the time that dinner should be served. Let's listen. Okay, next up is a viewer, Jane from New Hampshire. She has a question that a lot of. Hi, Martha. What is the best time to serve Thanksgiving dinner? Oh, I think it should be around 2 o' clock in the afternoon. People are hungry and they're starting to circle the kitchen. That's true. You know, if you have a bunch of guests and you don't want to wait till nighttime, you can eat and then watch the big game, you know, and then have more drinks and have fun. I love that. And eat dessert later. Why are we so hungry on Thanksgiving? Like any other day, you know, you have your breakfast and you might have lunch and then you have dinner at regular times. But how come on Thanksgiving you just be hungry so early? Because it's all types of food. You smell, smell of food. It's just not regular food. But I'm not mad at the 2:00'. Clock. I'm gonna tell you why. When I used to go to Thanksgiving at grandma's house, right then it was about 5 o', clock, right? And the whole family would have to drive there from different places of the other country to get to Grandma's house. So we had dinner at five. But when I started doing Thanksgiving at my house, I did it at 2 o'. Clock. Really? Because I get tired early. So after 2 o' clock, you have breakfast and you can sit back, you play spades, you watch the football game, you can relax, you can go back for more, or you can pass out. And you don't want people in your house all times of night. You know what I'm saying? Like, because by the time the first game over. All right, y'. All. All right, y' all see la. I'm going stairs, man. I'm going upstairs. Yeah, first game, come on. First game, come on. Well, I say the afternoon game. The afternoon game come on. Like 4, 4:30 after the afternoon game. Y' all ain't staying for the Late game. Yeah. Seven o', clock, eight o'. Clock. It's time. Good night, y'. All. Get home safe. I ain't mad at her. I'm not mad at her. I ain't tripping on 2:30. Cause 5 o' clock is late. Cause that means at 5 we starting to eat. Then that means you gonna get dessert about eight, nine, then you're gonna want to talk. Then there's always the family member that's drinking. And you're gonna get high. But that's gonna be constant throughout the day. That's through the day. Yeah. And then you gotta clean up. That means y' all not leaving till 11. 12. Yeah. Anybody got time? Yeah. 2, 3 o' clock is a good time. Early afternoon. Early afternoon. That's early afternoon. That's mid afternoon. Yeah. What is mid afternoon? Early afternoon is like 12, 12. Yeah. So, yeah, mid afternoon. I ain't mad at that. Two, three o'. Clock. I ain't mad at that. Let's discuss. What's the perfect time to start serving Thanksgiving dinner? But I'm gonna tell y' all something, man. I was born 78. At my tender age of 47, I just don't like Thanksgiving food like I used to. I like. I like yams, okay? And I like dressing. Not no goddamn stuffing. If you tell me that you made some stuffing, I don't want nothing. But you tell me you got some dressing. I'm gonna eat some dressing now. With some gravy on top. Now, the chat said, my fiance said dinner starts at noon. No, but then he goes there. They're white. Yeah. Well, a little different. That's ridiculous. Yeah, they were doing this too early. All right. Red is Puerto Rican. He said that his. His. His wife is white. And they start at one. They start at one. But he said what he does, he go to that side of the family at 1, and then he goes to the Puerto Rican side. Yeah. At seven o' clock at night. Go eat the trash food first. Damn. And then. Damn. I get what Red said. He go eat the trash food first. Fake eat Puerto Rican side to get that. Good. Good. Okay. Say that. Don't get that man in trouble. Hello? Who's this? Mimi. What's up, Mimi? Hi. What's up? What time do y' all start eating Thanksgiving, Mama? So I. In my household, it's just me and my husband. I like to do 5, 6 o'. Clock. But my mom, her house, it's like 9 to 10. Pushing 11. That's too late. I know she be cooking too much stuff. And people be coming over too late. But yeah, 9, 10, 11. It's crazy. Yeah, 9, 10, 11 is nuts. Ain't nobody eating no goddamn yams and dressing in Turkey for breakfast. And you know, when it's that late, they be eating it and then they be leaving mom at the house at like 6 o', clock, 5 o' clock in the morning. That's crazy. Nah, nah, we're not doing that. No, three, four o', clock, man. Three, four o' clock is a good time. Yeah. Now, we used to go to grandma house. All right, I'm gonna try that this year. Thank you, Mama. We used to go to grandma house. I used to dress the kids up in pajamas. Cause it was so late. And then she lived in Brooklyn, Stavroph City. So we wanted to get out of there early anyway. We didn't want to be in Brooklyn. La. Yeah, we wanted to get in and out. Let's go to another line. Hello? Who's this? This is Shine from Boston. Hey, what's up? Now, what time do you start serving Thanksgiving dinner? All right. I feel like Thanksgiving dinner should be served around four. My family might kill me for saying I never get it done around 4, but I'm going with 4pm I think that's a great time. 4pm is cool. Between 3 and 4, I think I'm going. Yeah, 4 is cool. I ain't gonna lie. I like 2:30. 2. Between 2, 2:30, we start eating. I like that. We pray at 2:30, start eating. We good to go. Hello? Who's this? Hey, Paulina. Paulina, good morning. What time do you start your Thanksgiving feast? All right, don't judge us. But sometimes eight, nine o'. Clock. That's too late. Damn. Where you calling from? You must no last year. Oh, from Knoxville, Tennessee. Why so late? But okay, so Africans are always late no matter what. Like, no, they don't got no sense of time management. I said, let's make sure we get done by 6, 6:30, like the latest. But nope, we got there like 9 o', clock, we started eating. Now, when you say Africans, do you mean from Ghana? No, Senegal. Oh, Senegal. Okay. I know people from Ghana be late too. What do y' all cook? What's the dish? The dishes we make. Turkey, brisket, oxtails, Mac and cheese. We don't really eat like cornbread. We just mix it up. There's a lot of lobster tails. Yeah, I don't know why. Rice, fries, biscuits, corn bread. No greens. We don't really like greens. No yam stuff. But we just. It's like an actual buffet. Somebody on the chat said they're calling Homeland Security on you. Cause eight, nine, is too late. That is too late. I'm gonna tell you something. Well, I'm a US Citizen. Boo. How about that? I'm gonna tell you something else. What I'm realizing. I've been having a lot of conversations with friends and family over the last couple weeks. A lot of people fed up with Thanksgiving food. Like, a lot of people just be making their own things. Like, you know what I mean? We stopped. Like, nobody eats turkey in my house. I like turkey. I like smothered turkey wings. If you fried a turkey, I might like it a little bit. You know what I'm saying? That Cajun turkey that Popeye's got be looking good. Somebody. I think I was talking to Angela Rye yesterday. She said she's getting a jerk turkey. Like, stuff like that. But if you gotta do all that to the turkey, that's how you know, turkey be trash. Yeah. Turkey wanna be chicken so bad. Yeah. 800-585-1051. What time do you start eating and serving Thanksgiving dinner? Let's discuss. It's the breakfast club. Good morning. 800-585-1051. Hello? Who's this? Hello, Quaila. How y' all doing this morning? What's up, mama? She said her name is what? Kayla. Oh, Kayla. Quaila. Quaila. I thought she said Quaalude. I was like, what the hell? Her name is Quaila. It's actually La Quaila, but yeah. Yes. What race? All right, now question. What time is it? You get deported with a name like that. Okay. ICE will detain you with a name like that. I'm telling you right now, that's a pretty good night. I actually thought it was really elegant. It is. All right. I rock with you, Laquela. Well, let me. Let me just. L, A, capital Q. A, capital Q. I know it. A. L, A. I know. I got. I'm R A, A, capital S. I know. I know exactly where your mom was going. But let's talk about it. What time do you start serving Thanksgiving dinner? Okay, I'm thinking around 3:30. 3:45. Ish. I think 2:00 clock is way too early, especially for my black people. So, yeah, I'mma go about. I think about 3:30. 3:45 is perfect time. And everybody should be there. No later than 3:45, we can get started eating. I agree with you, and I'm going tell you why else. That is a great time nowadays because of the whole daylight savings time thing, it be dark by 5 o'. Clock. 5 o', clock, it be so. So 4 is perfect. And it's dark. Don't even come in the house. That's what I'm saying. It be Pitch black by 5 o'. Clock. Four is good. Thank you, Mama. Yeah. 3:30. 3:45. All right. Thank you. Hello. Who's this? Bye. Kenya. What's your name? Kenya. Your name is by Kenya? No, it's Kenya. I was saying hi. Oh, hi, Kenya. Hey, Kenya. So what time are you serving on Thanksgiving dinner? Four o'. Clock. Four o'? Clock? Yeah. All the cook, all the main people that's doing most of the cooking, we usually get together maybe about an hour or so earlier and to get everything warmed up and set up nearby. Four by five o', clock, we. We're eating. Everybody start coming in at, like, four. That's a great time. And then, you know, I don't know if people realize that, you know, remember, they call it supper, Right? Supper or dinner is. Is the evening meal. The peak time for that evening meal is between 5 and 7. So that's really when you're supposed to be having dinner anyway. So if you start at like four on Thanksgiving, you. Great. You right there. I'm telling you, two is good. 2:30 is good for me. You start at 2:30, and then you eat. You play your spades or your games. You play charades and all that with the kids. And then you eat again. And goodbye. Hello, who's this? Hi, my name is Nay. Hey, talk to us. What time do you start serving Thanksgiving dinner? 2 o'. Clock. I think 2 o' clock is very reasonable because if I tell my family 6 o', clock, they not coming to 8. That's true. And then they don't want to leave until midnight because they've been drinking. 2 o' clock is kind of early. Can I ask you a question, respectfully? How big is your back? What? How big is my back? Why does she sound like she got a big back? What do you mean? I was just asking. I just. That was rude. Is this Charlemagne? No. He said no. You know, it ain't envy. You know it ain't envy. So who else you think it is? First of all, charlamagne. You like? One of my favorites. I be taking up for you all the time, so. And I'm from Detroit. And, you know, like, everybody be dogging you here for real. But I be like, y' all better get up off charlamagne. That's right. Get them up off me, baby. They always say they can't stand you. I'll be like, why? I'm like you. My face. That's right. Get them up off me, baby. You clear the room. Offensive line, I'm running behind you, baby. But to answer your question, no, I do not have a big back, but I do like to eat. Yeah, I just heard something, that's all. I ain't say you had a big back, but I heard some, like, big back tendencies. You know what I mean? Thank. Thank you, mama. Oh, okay. All right, all right. You get a pass. The chat. The chat said you don't sound big back. They said just a little plump. They said the chat say you sound just a little plump. No, y'. All. Y' all mean, oh, my God, we love you. I don't think so. Okay, good one. I love y'. All. I would love you back. Somebody on the chat said that back do sound wide. The chat is crazy. Somebody said that throat is heavy. Damn it, man. I'm just saying, y' all heard what I heard. Don't act like y' all ain't hear that. You sounded like she was about to start rapping Rick and Ross lyrics at any moment. Okay, I was about to hear. Oh, my God. So what's the moral of the story, man? What's the ball? The moral of the story is it gets dark around 4:30, 5 o' clock on the east coast because of daylight savings time. Right. And supper time is from five to seven, I think, you know, three to four is perfect. Time to eat Thanksgiving dinner. All right, all right. Well, when we come back, we got the latest with Lauren.
