A Podcaster Is Going Viral After He Said That Drinking On Thanksgiving Is "Nuts To Me" And "Can't Even Fathom A Drink" On The Holiday

Listen, I love Big T. There's nobody better that will tell you something that is widely accepted as normal is the most outrageous thing he's ever heard of and that's why he's the best. Did I sensationalize the headline and say that he's going viral when this is just a clip I saw from a Viva account that I follow on my timeline? That's a resounding yes in the pageviews business.

Did I find out that this clip was a year old and a comment from last year made me laugh even harder? Also yes:

This should be a viral video that everyone talks about every single Thanksgiving so let this blog be a stepping stone to that. Now that I think about it, is there a more drinking holiday than Thanksgiving? You could probably argue the 4th of July, but there's a reason that Thanksgiving Eve is called "Blackout Wednesday" and "Drinksgiving". I guess that may be his point considering you'd drink the day before and not on the actual holiday, but I haven't seen a Thanksgiving table that didn't at least have some wine on it. I'm not from the South, or even from the North really and I can tell you a Spanish family would be indulging in some alcohol on a day you have to sit around the table celebrating a holiday you don't necessarily care about.

Besides, what are you going to drink when you watch the Cowboys defense or the Chiefs rigging football games? Some water and some Welch's sparkling juice? You want a beer to help you forget the monstrosity that you're watching. While many people don't want an invite to his family table, I'd accept an invite simply to see the dynamic. What type of beverages are they serving over there at the Knapp household and what does a southern Thanksgiving without booze look like?

Those are questions we may never get answers to, but we'll always have this video to look back on every single holiday. God bless Big T.
