00:05go ahead look you even let the grito out
00:07you don't got to keep that uh you know kind of cooped in
00:11here on the Cinco de Mayo in the loop on Sports Radio 6
00:14and shout out to all who are celebrating including Ron the show
00:18Hughley who will be triple celebrating I think because the text line put it best
00:21we got Cinco de Mayo we got Taco Tuesday and we got Ron's birthday
00:26on the same day drunk Ron I mean if there was ever a day to get it done
00:31yeah today's the day to get it done so I imagine there's gonna be a fun edition
00:34of the drive and then whatever the post-show edition of
00:37the drive is I imagine it'll be pretty fun as well are we crashing the party
00:40yes I'm crashing the party they don't even I'm I will be there
00:44100 percent um this is entirely unrelated to anything I just saw this text and I
00:49found this absurd shout out to Ocho though
00:51he said that he his confession into the previous segment was that he put sugar
00:55on his grits on rice and on Frosted Flakes and I went rice because I know Frosted Flakes
01:02like you just made it more sugary I get that man the grits it's contentious but there are
01:07some people on your side with the sweet and savory grits yeah since when do people put
01:11rice uh sugar on rice that's a Cinco de Mayo thing is it am I just missing my people
01:17oh okay a little sugar and a little cinnamon I see some black folks putting some sugar on
01:21really the strangest one of those three things is the Frosted Flakes because they're real sugary
01:26like rice on grits huh you said it I put honey on grits now regular corn flakes I'm down with
01:31putting the sugar on there yeah but he said Frosted Flakes yeah that's yeah that's insane the craziest
01:36big mama your arm but yeah the greatest one to put sugar on is the Frosted Flakes like uh they
01:41call
01:41a sopa a sopa uh the little little kind of runny rice with some cinnamon and some sugar not familiar
01:48okay so like a rice pudding I know some people that put sugar on spaghetti now that one I have
01:53never done yeah and other than elf more power to y'all on that um is this segment going to
02:00get
02:00weirder possibly because John Lope was this this was uh St. Patrick's Day John Lope yeah he said
02:06Lopez said nothing to see here yeah well I said yeah then I called it a tier three holiday but
02:12now
02:12we have five tiers and it's a tier four holiday yeah he foisted upon us although I did I was
02:17complicit I will acknowledge I was just like I am curious I would like to know more about this
02:22I recognize the error of my ways I apologize to our listenership that I I started this beast
02:26and so here we are John Lope with an active ranking of holidays on this tier list that has only
02:32gotten
02:33bigger over the time so John Lopez if you could now update us as to what the holiday tier list
02:39is
02:39and where this day that we currently sit Cinco de Mayo Falls yeah so the interesting thing about this
02:45is first of all when I did the list before I was surprised how many people agreed with me
02:50because I think more people when you're honest with yourself there are tiers to your holidays now
02:56maybe that some are more important to you personally than others but in terms of just tiers
03:00of the big holiday so I have five tiers okay tier one for now you may even agree disagree with
03:07some
03:07of these tier one but I think it's pretty pretty common the tier one top tier holidays Christmas
03:15Thanksgiving Halloween I feel is a tier one just based on you know the the breath of it all
03:20uh breath with a d uh from uh adults to to the hoes you know they'd like to dress up
03:25uh to to to it's funny every time to the kids uh no Halloween is is an excuse for a
03:31lot of women
03:31to to let out their inner hoe uh and and and and so oh I think I think Halloween is
03:37up there you may
03:37disagree with that I wouldn't have a problem with that but I think it's a tier one holiday
03:40and then Easter and 4th of July because those are the big family take a long weekend go to the
03:46beach go
03:46to wherever so would you would you disagree with any of the tier ones um no I might have an
03:53argument
03:54with Halloween but I think it depends who it is yeah yeah yeah so this is where it starts good
03:59let's
03:59go into tier two tier three tier four and tier five of your holidays you know what I'm gonna do
04:04tier
04:05five first because those are the ones who cares right like like is that the name of the tier have
04:09you
04:09named the tiers at all we can it sounds like fun to me the who cares tier tier five flag
04:15day
04:15groundhog day april fool's day and like arbor day oh that got a tier yeah yeah the bottom tier
04:25the who cares tier is tier five so here's where it's gonna get interesting tier two three and four
04:32okay my tier two holiday holidays are new year's eve slash day um and we can wait you can hold
04:41your
04:41thoughts until I'm done memorial day labor day because those are the three-day weekends but
04:47they're not exactly tier one you know you might be you might do something here is this tier two okay
04:52you might do something you might not you know and your family might it might be bigger than other
04:56families but generally speaking new year's even day memorial day labor day valentine's day and
05:02mother's day because let's face it the ladies have to be celebrated more than they might make
05:10it tier one to be honest they might make it valentine's day might make it tier one so tier
05:15two is new year's day and eve memorial day labor day valentine's day and mother's day which by the
05:19way this weekend I don't think mother's day is a tier two really I'll take tell your mom that
05:24she knows see how she likes it she knows here's the thing she had a great birthday weekend I want
05:30you
05:30to understand that but here's the thing and I hate this term but I'm going to use it tell me
05:34you're not married without telling me you're not married okay tell it tell me you ain't married
05:41without tell because for mother's day or for mother's day okay listeners tell me if I'm wrong
05:47mother's day is a tier two holiday so it's really a wife's day you're in but it's you can't screw
05:51it
05:52up just like valentine's day you cannot you got it yeah you cannot screw it up and they want y
05:57'all
06:00kind of we got what you got three more days to get something done I'll get it done I'm good
06:04under problem a deadline guy man I'm a deadline guy uh so would you agree with that I agree with
06:09that yeah now once we get to tier three you might want to bump some of these up or back
06:13but tier three father's day because fathers aren't as important as mothers you know in terms of the
06:18holidays I feel like that's pretty hot to be nobody give a damn about father's day man you
06:23know what I might be I might agree with you on that nobody nobody cares I mean I'm cool with
06:27it
06:27as of right now you have father's day above well I mean I'm looking at your list hold on let's
06:36keep
06:36the list I'll let you go Cinco de Mayo is a tier three holiday it is widely celebrated you know
06:41what
06:42I'm gonna put I'm gonna put I'm gonna put father's day on four uh Cinco de Mayo is a tier
06:46three
06:47widely celebrated I mean look at our office today I brought the tacos this morning we had a mariachi
06:52singing you know uh we didn't have any leprechauns on St. Patrick's Day you know so
06:57you know a lot of they brought what I would have done if we did have leprechauns
07:01what do you do in that tree there's a leprechaun in that tree um so Cinco de Mayo MLK Day
07:08I'll do
07:09respect President's Day I'll do respect Veterans Day I'll do respect Indigenous Peoples Day I'll do
07:14respect salute to all our veterans out there it's not about the veterans it's about the holiday
07:19some of us really respect what y'all do y'all number one in our heart in my heart at
07:23least
07:24mine and Reggie's I care about the troops I'm not pointing any fingers but
07:30you know that guy no I'm talking about the holiday because it's a three basically all those
07:36are the national uh what do they call them like bank holidays basically national holidays whatever
07:40uh MLK presidents veterans indigenous peoples some people call it Columbus Day uh those are just
07:47like three-day weekend whatever and Cinco de Mayo is not one of these bank holidays but just
07:52the number of people that will go and get a drink behind it people talking about margaritas this
07:57morning and Seth was talking about hey you know the El Tempo margaritas will light you up uh
08:02like I said we had mariachis in Mexico I think Cinco de Mayo is there in tier three I think
08:05we are
08:05setting up for more tiers here soon because there's people pointing out that don't nobody get no
08:09days off for Cinco de Mayo there's also people pointing out especially as high as you have
08:13Halloween considering that nobody's getting the day off for that either it's the holiday though the
08:18idea that there's there's no sub tiers that have come up in here that is a good point
08:21because I feel like the other the ones in tier ones use they have an off day right you got
08:26you
08:26schedule around that you don't schedule you get a week off yeah yeah Halloween that's the that's
08:31the one that don't you don't get a day off it's a fun holiday but huge though it should it
08:36should be
08:36right there with Cinco de Mayo though right no it's bigger than Halloween and Valentine's Day
08:40basically operate the same though don't they no like I'm the ways that they take over the grocery
08:44store and I mean the candy every holiday boy they're already every holiday grocery stores put
08:49everything yeah but I think I think that we're talking about two singular things with uh Valentine
08:53you're going to Walgreens for Halloween candy and and and Valentine's Day cards I don't know man I
08:59mean yeah that's like y'all's opinion man but uh I think Halloween is huge okay so the hugeness
09:05that you're talking about is like celebrating when you talk about parties and dressing up people dress
09:09up to go to an NFL game I think you could similarly then do on the other side the way
09:13to Valentine's
09:14Day just absolutely murders the opportunity to get a restaurant reservation yes it should be taken
09:19into advantage yes that's fair that's fair I think that those things are a lot closer than where you've
09:23currently all right so tier four and uh this is where maybe you know you can raise an eyebrow but
09:29again they're not as big as like MLK Day or Cinco de Mayo or whatever St. Patrick's Day is
09:36tier four Juneteenth and and both of y'all at the same time I wonder why and Black Friday you
09:50know
09:51Black Friday no wait no no different Black Friday wrong way different Black Friday you thought about
09:56that one the wrong way I'm sensing the theme in on this show every every Friday is Black Friday
10:04ain't it it's all right it sure is ain't it I got to talking to about the Black Friday show
10:08I worked
10:09one time oh that's right I remember that all right so I would argue for Black Friday ain't really a
10:14holiday that I care too much about because it's more you want to put it on five it's less about
10:17Black
10:17Friday itself and more about it's the day after Thanksgiving it's a day off it's usually a
10:21yeah but that's not about Black Friday it's about Thanksgiving like we just shoehorn something else in
10:25there no but I think the holiday aspect of it the day off aspect of it yeah but the day
10:30it's not
10:30it's not the day off just because it's Friday it's the day off because Thanksgiving is so big
10:34that if these the ripple days off you gotta unbuckle your pants on Friday uh maybe what does that mean
10:42you know what not a lot of pushback on my tears there's not a lot somebody said careful Lopez
10:48buddy this whole segment's a careful Lopez careful now I don't know if you notice I'm just trying
10:53to tear your list apart that's all I'm doing over here that's right I think the one pushback I will
10:58have I feel like Cinco de Mayo and St. Patrick's Day is similar man incorrect I think it's similar
11:03similar but different I think maybe in the south y'all celebrate uh Cinco de Mayo way more but
11:09St. Patrick's Day was a big deal they used to dye the doggone was a Lake Michigan green yeah or
11:15whatever river that was green yeah I felt like that's pretty I felt like it's on the same level as
11:19Cinco de Mayo involves drinking now I'm gonna go mmm you think we're not giving your people
11:27enough love here I think they should be on the same tier whatever tier it is I think it should
11:31be on the same tier and I think you're looking at each other like that spider-man man all right
11:37so let Lopez know how he's wrong seven one three five seven I don't I got a lot of support
11:41you're
11:41you are getting a decent amount of support and then there's people throwing in various different
11:44holidays or pseudo holidays and asking you to tear them I think by the time we're done here you're
11:49gonna end up with seven tiers I'm a veteran and it's a lower tier holiday oh wow thank you for
11:58your service I guess yeah yeah he said I guess he's like you don't want to celebrate yourself
12:03right now how did that happen Father's Day should be tier one man made the wheel that's I don't know
12:09I don't even know might not have been a dad I would love for Father's Day to be number one
12:14but man
12:15people don't give a damn about it no you'll be sitting there with your dad like oh it is Father's
12:19that's right happy Father's Day man I don't need dads care about Father's Day like that I don't
12:24what was your best Father's Day gift that I don't remember he's got you you got me you're right
12:30sometimes the dad yeah yeah like like Mother's Day I want to do this and then I want to do
12:34that
12:34it's stressful for Mother's Day man oh it's like Valentine my mother used to put that pressure on me
12:38yeah Mother's Day coming up I'm like yeah I know my great uh someone said Easter takes over stores
12:46too yeah but it's a tier one nobody was nobody was uh arguing for that case Easter Easter got it
12:50man yeah yeah like whether you are religious or not Easter does it 100 yeah no one does Black Friday
12:56it's all done online the week at Thanksgiving that's also a great point Black Friday whatever
12:59relevance you want to give it is waning yeah due to the online sales this is true yeah go ahead
13:05and
13:05lower Black Friday it's right there with Juneteenth hey we need to put Juneteenth up a little higher
13:10man just off the strength and and it's here just to protect your image right it's here like all these
13:16other places in the United States that they just gone on that's one thing it's it's a year holiday
13:22yeah man just put it up a tier just to protect your image a little bit yeah because you you
13:27really
13:28not you're doing it for me yeah you need to do it for you I ain't gonna trip off of
13:32MLK but
13:33at least Juneteenth bump it up MLK at least damn tier four holiday the definitive holiday list
13:40which I feel like isn't all that definitive right now now
