My goal this Thanksgiving is to only use one drinking glass the whole time I’m here. It’s going to be a challenge. If I take my eye off it for a single second someone will put it in the dishwasher, but if I’m vigilant it’s possible.

The Benoit Blanc movies are really good. I’m looking forward to seeing the newest one, but we can’t allow Rian Johnson to be the only guy to
make whodunnits.

Around the holidays you see more of these nuts in their shells. People always ask me, “Joe, how do I crack these open? I really want a walnut!”
Well here’s my technique: just take two and squeeze them together like a goddamn man.

My mom is making a “toll house” pie for tomorrow. It’s exactly what it sounds like and it rules. Terrific warm but cold with a glass of milk the next day is elite

I love visiting my parents but they’re at the age now where it’s 85 degrees in their house so it’s like I’m packing for the beach

When did I first feel like an "adult"?
In college I switched from carrying a backpack to a messenger bag.

Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer set a really bad precedent for Red Sox fans. Now every year I expect, nay demand, for the Red Sox GM and #1 assistant to have Thanksgiving with a player in hopes of convincing them to come to Boston.

Also, every time I see "[game] needs a remaster!"
When the game is still commonly available. Just go play it!

The quality I find among the most mediocre in people is a complete void of imagination with how to make troubled things better. Brussels sprouts taste good now, because the scientists who made them good didn't settle for "more pizza"

When you're getting Thanksgiving supplies, don't forget to stock up on bread, mayo and chips. You're gonna want a sandwich on Friday. (Or Thursday night if you're a pig.)

I like pecan pie the way it is, but I’m very curious about these no corn syrup recipes I keep seeing.
Because for some reason corn syrup gives me really bad acid reflux. That’s not going to stop me, but it’d be nice to save on tums and whatnot

I love when Gordon Ramsay says "the secret" to something is the main ingredient "The secret to great chips, is in the potato", "the secret to a great Christmas dinner is this, the turkey"

Every person who’s ever started a grease fire while deep frying a turkey is a dumbass. It’s unbelievable to watch. You don’t need to be a physicist to understand displacement. And yet every year you see people put turkeys into oil that raises up over the sides and onto an open flame

The only flag you’re supposed to fly higher than Old Glory in New England
I spent several minutes trying to figure out what state or nation's flag this dunkin' donuts flying next to the american flag, and then the wind blew it out and it was the red sox

there is zero chance the Yankees failed to turn a profit in any year, but especially in 2025 when they were coming off a World Series appearance. If an MLB owner says he lost money, that's like me saying I can fly. You should insist on proof.
(I can't fly, just so no one asks me to demonstrate.)

One of my most controversial food opinions is that walnuts improve most baked goods. Chocolate chip cookies? Zucchini bread? Carrot cake?

I live in an area of the country where delicious, authentic tacos are commonly available.
But man, sometimes a Tex-Mex taco with ground beef, cheddar cheese and a crunchy corn tortilla shell really hits the spot.

One time I baked a birthday cake for my girlfriend, now wife, and I broke it taking it out of the pan. I slammed the oven door shut and yelled in frustration and a neighbor called the cops on me because they thought there was a DV situation.
