The Brothers Osborne find New Year traditions, and habits kind of amusing.
Sure, there will be a lot of people raising glasses, and probably consuming more than a few adult beverages this week when we ring in the New Year…but that’s also how they might have started the year too.
John Osborne says, “I think it’s kind of funny how we spend literally the last moment and the very first moment of every year being extremely intoxicated.”
He goes on to explain, “You don’t want to wait until like 12:30 to get your buzz on. You’ve got to do it before midnight, and then once midnight happens, you’re like, ‘Omigod! Now it’s time to celebrate even more.’” Which leads John to the revelation, “Debauchery is the literally bookending your entire year.”
His brother TJ Osborne is also amused by some people’s logic when it comes to eating during the holiday season, and then their thoughts of being healthy a few weeks later. “I love how everyone starts the year off with diets and then we end the year with like excessive amounts of food. And then you get to the end of the year, you’re like, ‘Oh, I’m going to start a diet on the 1st, so I’m going to eat everything that’s in front of me.’ I love it.”
Brother John then voices the cold hard reality most of us face after making the resolution to be healthier, “Come February 1st, ‘what diet?’”
To send off 2020, and welcome 2021, lots of people will be celebrating “All Night”…
