Spittin truth for all you fanatics. Uh every week I something new to say. Ain't no filter, this shit comin' straight from the brain. It's coming straight from the brain. Yeah, it's coming straight, coming straight from the brain.
SPEAKER_00Today is Wednesday, November 27th, 2024. You know what that means? It's time for TriptoFan. Go back through the annals of the show to figure out that we kind of created a real phenomenon, if you will, on the show where we saw white space in the market. There were no Thanksgiving songs. And so we slowly but surely built a massive catalog of Thanksgiving songs. And today we've got a new set of them. You're gonna hear me first. And then you're gonna hear a wonderful and super talented local MC named Sonny Ski, who was on the show last December. Check him out, check that one out. And then you're gonna hear Joe Jennifer, who's responsible for our theme song. Stevie Three Dots, who's actually a public official and therefore required that we blur his face out. And then we've also got the gobble gobble guys, same as last year, but this year they they did a reduction, totally new version, new track. And it's gonna close off with CLR. Can I get some more of your stuff in the same as last year? Same thing. We're just running it back because it was such a dope track. Alright, that's it, folks. Hope you enjoy the show. Go lions, and happy Thanksgiving. Take care.
SPEAKER_05Cutting through the turn. Let me have a slice. Nah, babe, make it three. Triples would be nice. Cutting through the cornbread. Scoop of mac and cheese. Stretching out my waist, man. Belly to my knees. Waiting for the lions, waiting for a kid guard. And I know it sounds crazy, but we could win it all. But I might need a nap soon. I might fall asleep. I'm cutting through the turkey. This trip the fan hits D. Digested all the jerky. Ready for a nine. Pull me to the bedroom. Can I get a man? Seems halftime lasts forever. Will it ever end? And I can't go to sleep until the best chances are dead. And I'm brazing at the table. Pulling out my phone. Gotta find an Uber. Gotta get back home. And I'm cutting through the turkey. Effects is at an end. Oh, why do I need some money? The line's game is over. So what do we do now? Cutting through the turkey. Let's have another round. Wake up in the mid haze. Droolin' down my shirt. Snorin's something fierce, babe. God damn, this my throat hurt. And ain't no one to blame now. Did this to myself. Disciplines for next year. To hell with my own hell. Slapping on to sweatpants. Feeling like a drunk. Say something for tomorrow, cause we can't skip line. And I'm trying to do the training.
SPEAKER_07I need that friend of the fan. I need that thread of the fan. I need a treadmill. I need that friend of the fan.
SPEAKER_06Yeah. I came a long way from that kid's table. Back when the standard sweet potatoes hit my nasal. I snoke a taste when my mom ain't lookin'. My mom stay cookin' until my fam stalk, they foot in the door. And oh Lord, did they like to talk? My mima kiss me on the cheek and then her lipstick, I wipe it off. I'm cracking up a joke, scramble with busts. Smell a cigarette smoke, giving then a hug. Then what happened to us? The leaves are falling off the trees, but by trees, I'm talking about my family one. The wonder my mother utter and she wants me to plan a seed. Both my grandma's deceits. You and grandma to be would be the best news to give her. But I ain't ready. See this thanksgiving. We botta have a few empty seats. My nana just passed. My meme's been gone. My grandpa's not here, one's there, the other, who knows? Then my cousins left home. Two in Regina, one in Navy. Both my family welcome the new member. That's my lady that my mom loves. My mima always used to ask when I'm kidding a girlfriend. Well, I've only got one. And I wish you got the chance to meet her. At least my nana didn't recognize her when she seen her on her deathbed. This it is hard to stomach when you get fed. Up with all this piercing depression that we all been through. At least I'll get to see my dog. Ah, see that too. Jane, I miss you sitting with me. But the steel go blind and limp, and that's it. Kill up the little kid up in me. The table feels wrong without the paws walking round it. The window look wrong without the jaw barking out it. When my dog died, I gotta grow the same week. I guess I lost a bitch, then game the queen. And my sister telling me that she got a man out. Fucking mean. Then I remember she's 23. Damn how. The time is flown, it's crazy to see. We about a year apart. But she still a baby to meet. My older bro is 29. Shit, I'm a baby to heat. We only four years apart, but he feels ain't it to me. They say each kid is differently raised. Maybe so, but what's for stole? Is my parents' misses the same? My mama hug me harder each time I visit her place. My pops always wanna hear about me hitting the stage. I know this holidays history is killin' a race. But we ain't celebrating that, we just spendin' a day to get together as a family. Thanksgiving they say, but I'ma flip the name, cause today I'm giving them thanks. Thank you, Pops. Yes, thank you, Mom. Thank you, God, for the family I got left.
SPEAKER_07Got left, trip to fan, trip to fan, trip to fan, I've been tripping fan. Trip the fanny that trip the fan. I've been tripping.
SPEAKER_09Trip to fan, trip to fan, trip the fan, I've been tripping fan.
SPEAKER_07Trip the fanny that trip the fan. All the dodges in that trip to fan.
SPEAKER_03How to the best I can I've not anything drive.
SPEAKER_04Seven feet half four five half each and down.
SPEAKER_12Take me away. I'm just dancing around and watching football all day. I need to get a job, I need to go on with my life. One more slice of turkey pass me the knife. Triptop and trip to fan. Won't you take me away? I've just been sitting around and watching football all day. I love you, Molly and Grandparents, also made them mashed potatoes too. Before I lose consciousness, so let me whisper. I love you. Won't you take me away? I've just been sitting around and watching football all day. So many problems with the world that I don't know. Maybe I can help solve them if I don't sleep too long. Take me away. A lot of fans sitting around and watching football all day.
SPEAKER_11I saw a turkey the other day and I slapped it. Comin' in hot as fuck, like I just popped three Catholics. All my dogs ain't eating Espo Sierra and Atlas. I'm so glad that we grabbed it. Looking at the turkey like you're just a piece of poultry, bitch. Back to it. Grab a turkey neck and then just add a twist. But Loki man, the fact is I double fist of turkey wagon beating strippy. Cause deep, deep, bro. Deeper than any belly, darker than any corner. Lonely like on an island. I'm trying not to feel, but don't know if I can. I'm conflicted and that crypto fan. Asking for seconds, my beating per second. It's relentless. I get up to walk, but when I stand, I start to miss it, man. I'm tripping on that trip to fan. Sleepy, I don't give a damn. By day, I'm businessman. By night, I'm super man.
SPEAKER_04Mom says we're not gonna have any Thanksgiving. No turkey, no good thing.
SPEAKER_01Trip to fan all on the plate again. I'm trippin' and trip on the swine. I've been zipping. I can't believe I'm in this state again. You gotta pay the rent. We tripping, we lose in the static. I look at G and he pull out the cheat. Now we got the tab we see the fanatics. Trip defense doing its magic. Putting the victims in caskets. I'm watching the way he be knocking them out. I can't believe it. I trip the fan, trippin' it, don't do deceiving. It has no message, it has no meaning. From being just a motherfuckin' demon, I don't agree with any convenience to deal with the decent, the deals that are decent. Trip defend doing whatever it feels, and we need to find out that butt fucking secret.
SPEAKER_11And every day I get flowin'. I'm always looking at that bird. And every day I'm looking, I just can't seem to find a word. I'm rich.
SPEAKER_10Next year, next year, next year, next year. But eating kids if you get it. Unlike some testicles, left left, I think. Then I was switched at first, the exact we've disturbed. You ain't called every word.
SPEAKER_08Next year, next year, I know I had enough, can I get some more of your stuff back? I know I had enough. Can I get some more until I feel I drip the fat? Drip the fan, drip the fat. Put the light out, trip the fat, trip the fat, drip the fat. I know I had enough. I know I had enough. Put the light out, put the back, put the back, put the back. Let the beat rock. Put in the beat card. Put in the kitchen on the game. I'll be putting on the game with the belly away. Oh, let me get another play. I know what the ball. I know what the belt can get the bow. I know what can I get the bow to fame, and the phone, and the phone, put the light out, the fame, but the fame, the phone, like our
