if you think your family has some strange holiday traditions wait until you hear about the poop log let’s talk about that good mythical morning thank you for joining us today there’s lots of festivities gonna happen starting with this shirt and bowtie yes I am a human candy cane today because I wanted to get into the holiday spirit Rhett and you might send somebody into a seizure it would the pattern I’d do this right here don’t do that but as we know bowties are cool so we’re all set here right let’s move forward I have compiled a list of some of the weirdest Christmas slash holiday traditions from around the world hmm I’m excited about this I love international Christmas traditions and once I well once I sort of cover sort of a thing I’m into it’s your hobby yeah and Christmas trains Christmas trains and poo plugs yeah all right tell me all about it I’m dick around for poop blogs first kiviak dig up the dead bird yeah is what this practice is called it’s a traditional wintertime Inuit food from Greenland this kiviak yes it is made from ox which as you know is a small bird and it’s preserved in the hollowed-out body of a seal what they do is they take a dead bird put it in the body of a seal and put it in the frost for several months before Christmas then the Christmas tradition is to dig up the kitty ACK squeeze out the rotted guts and then eat the bird this was obviously a mistake in something I mean it’s like a kid was playing a prank I’m gonna put the birds in the seal in Burien see if Dad can find it well it stinks really bad but it’s got a tangy taste you know it’s just a different palate pressure yeah yeah what if floats your boat whatever buries your bird just dig up the dead bird if that’s just a no-judgment here it’s just it’s just in time I want to try it where do they sell it anywhere around here I don’t know we should we should look into that I’m sure I’m sure you’d eat it before I would in Great Britain they have a superstition around Christmas time for stirring the pudding mm-hmm when they’re digging up any dead birds over there though know that when they’re when they’re making the pudding during Christmas they mix it clockwise and make a wish and the wish will come true only at Christmas time no it’s not much of a tradition I don’t know if that they only make the pudding at Christmastime you guys in England compare this pudding can tell us in the in the description you can also tell us what you wish but then it’s not going to come true right that’s what you just might nullify zit in America you have to keep your wish to yourself in England I don’t know if you can share the wish or not okay if you miss a dead relative you should move to Portugal and we should also put that on a t-shirt do they move there if you know what happened is they have this tradition to where they set a place at the Christmas time table for the dead relative and then the dead relative will come you probably won’t see them they probably none of the food will disappear but they’ll bring the bring you good luck if you set it if you set a place what happens if he I mean not trust me if there’s a plate of uneaten food and Grandpa Lewis doesn’t show up to eat it I’m going to eat it am I going to get cursed my research is inconclusive oh okay all right cansada feast that’s what they call it offering food to bring you luck through the whole year hiding your brooms if you go to Norway they got a legend there when Christmas Eve comes it brings all types of evil spirits out where’s the Sun in Norway okay and as you know evil spirits like what brooms exactly witches think about it they hop on bronze I fly around to clean their Liana clean oh they get your swiffers and your vacuums away today haunt you and stuff like that so you got to put your you got to hide your brooms before bedtime that’s the last thing you do but go the kids are running around in fear in Norway they’re not thinking about oh you know sugar plums they’re thinking about witches beating them to death with brooms how hard is it a bludgeoning they can’t hide a broom a witch or a ghost they just go to the wall where you’ve hit it like oh it’s in the closet oh there it is not the broom gonna go beat the kid with it they never checked the broom closet now the next one is a Greek folk tradition I’m still I’m still staying in creepy territory for some reason um all these these Greeks like the Norwegians they want to make Christmas spooky ‘the Greeks they want to make Christmas spooky and I I don’t I just I don’t know why let’s just keep it jolly well it isn’t what I mean but jolly to keep a job it is a little too sugary sweet you know with maybe a fat man it gives you anything that you want comes down your chimney well the Greeks have these evil goblins called now we’re talking colic and colic and zeros right oh gosh I’m sorry I’m sure that I’m sure that’s all they presented I’m I’m butchering the name just like the goblins butcher your children at Christmastime Merry Christmas get out here’s how you can keep the goblins away now take note at this point no it has nothing to do with roast you can burn your shoes yeah the smell what was the second thing I was going to say just make sure you ask Santa for more shoes you got a plan ahead I got a lot I mean I got pairs of shoes are embarrassing at this point I was gonna take him a goodwill but I guess I’ll just burn them think about what they smell like that’ll keep the goblins away or keep a pig jaw inside the chimney to keep them from coming down who sat on a hill again keep a pig jaw in the chimney where to get one of those a pig in this area of the pig the facial area of the pig you keep a pig jaw in the chimney do you yeah do you like wedge it in there to make to it because I can think of other things if you can tell crow you I mean whatever non-flammable velcro preferably are they scared I don’t even want to ask I don’t I don’t know the whys of this I just know the it’s of it okay it is they did I don’t know how Santa gets down around the pig jaw I don’t know legend has that any child born during the 12 days of Christmas was in danger of transforming into one of these goblins and starting with adulthood so they were born then when they’re in adults they become the goblins the antidote is buying the baby and tresses of garlic or straw and singing send it not singing it singeing and said child toenails singe their tone oh this is child abuse of course there will be a goblin if you don’t do it right I don’t want to do it it’s justified right listen I’ve got to get to this poop log now in Catalonia Spain is not the first time I’ve heard that give me a second I’ve got to get to this poopit family tradition is to get a log hollow out the log put a face on the log and some arms and legs start feeding the log with candy and goodies and toys on December 8 and yes I am using this motion because that’s how you get the candy and the toys is an international symbol for football poop luck granddad comes down he’s just like and then means get to poop blah listen and then when Christmas time rolls around Christmas time Christmas time you start singing a song Kaka tio is this song kaga Tia as he poops out all the goodies the song that is translated poop log poop Turin hazelnuts and cottage cheese if you don’t poop well I’ll hit you with a stick poop lock doesn’t rhyme well it maybe it does it does in Spanish okay they come before and they beat this thing on the back they beat the log no the candy poops out and all the toys and really what how come this hasn’t spread to other countries I don’t my question because it’s it just seems so kid-friendly in Apatow we’re doing this in my house this year buddy I mean I’m gonna walk in the house and all I’m saying this and then the next thing you know we’re gonna be how did you do the pushing out a lot of poop comes out I mean they beat the log and then there’s like a blanket covering up the back of the thing and the blanket just fills up with candies and goodie but it means a candy the log has pooped out yeah I mean it’s not that unappetizing I mean we hit
