Hey, Michael Carbonaro here. You're like
me. You're spending the holiday season

sitting alone on a bench.

Some reason people don't invite me into
their home.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. Sorry, I hit an artery. I'm
okay.

Yes, the holiday season is upon us. A
time of warmth, good cheer, and hidden

cameras. I've decided to help you
navigate the upcoming weeks with a

episode of never -before -seen bits of
craziness that I'm going to call the

Carbonaro Effect Holiday Survival Guide.

Let's start off with a look at
everyone's number one holiday concern,

the masses.

You want to make a beautiful
Thanksgiving dinner for your family, but

want to exert any effort.

Have I got the product for you.

This is a new product called Canicopia.

It's for Thanksgiving, and it's
supposedly really tasty. I haven't

just saw the video on how to open it.
It's like all of Thanksgiving?

Yeah, so it's not just one thing.

You ever have a Thanksgiving sandwich at
a deli?

It's kind of like that, yeah.

So pop the can open here for you.

There we go.

Okay, yeah, so this is the top layer.

All right.

Right, because that's going to expand a
little bit there, and just as it hits

the oxygen, that first layer is going to
flop itself out there. So that, you

know this is like for Thanksgiving.

So, again, I'm just going to kind of cut
a little bit.

The next layer spans underneath it a
little bit, and there's the turkey.

So you get both the turkey and the
cranberry.

And the potatoes are in there, too.

Whoops.

Oh, yeah, sorry. Would you get that?
Sorry about that.

That's my first demo there. Sorry about
that. That's the stuffing.

So, yeah, that's the potatoes, the
cranberry, the stuffing, the turkey, and

this one.

Oh, yeah, the beans with the crispies in
it, you know? You get those nice

crispies in there.

So it's all in there, yeah.

Did you see that?

Yeah, I didn't even know there was corn
at the bottom there, yeah.

Sorry about that.

I think it just released.

Yeah, see how it's wet?

So the wet products come out. Oh, my
God, that's whole dinner.

And here we go.

Oh,

ha!

It comes with like a little turkey for
your turkey dinner. Oh, my God. That's

funny. And then one more maybe.

Or separate is dessert, apple pie.

Oh, there we go. Oh, you live in the
future now. Yeah. The other thing they

on this, once it's all out of the way,
the label can peel off like that.

So, and then that you can lay down like
this. It's kind of flattened and you

have to kind of pop the edges out of
each one like that.

Yeah, and the label, actually, is the
tablecloth. Oh,

wow. Okay.

You can have the tablecloth, too, for
your meal.

Whole Thanksgiving.

That is wildly expensive.

Nice stuff, right?

Yeah. How much are these cans?

These are, you know, they're like, I
think it's like $39 .99 a can. But

a special today. Let me check the
coupon.

I think we have a special.

We also sell New Year's Eve in a can. It
comes with champagne, a noisemaker, and

someone whose name you can't remember in
the morning.

Of course, holiday cooking can be
exhausting, unless you use the latest in

-saving kitchen aids.

Here are a couple of people who will not
only believe anything, they'll

apparently eat anything.

This is our squid ink pasta pen.

It's a pre -mix inside of a pen, so it's
made just like a pen. It's got the tip

of a pen on it.

and that has the squid ink inside it. So
you just draw into your bowl a little

swirl like that.

Try and coil it. The shape doesn't
really matter, but I like to keep it in

connected long swirl.

And then you add a little bit of water,
and you can see it expands under the

water. You know, a squid's ink expands
to...

So that'll expand inside the water. And
you just want to say it starts to dance.

You kind of want to swirl it around a
little bit.

And they start to stick to each other.

And then you pick up.

Look at that.

Holy cow. Just like that, a little bit.

And, yeah, so it's like drawing dinner.

So a little bit of broth for you.

Look at that.

You can give that a try.

Yeah. Sure, thank you.

Who came up with that?

Well, they've been writing with squid
ink for years.

Someone wrote a recipe with squid ink on
a card, and it got wet, and the ink

started lifting off the card. And that's
when he noticed it had the same

consistency when it gets transformed to
pasta. So they just added a little bit

of pasta flour.

That's amazing.

And you can draw dinner.

How much can you draw with that? How
many dinners? Yeah, this will serve a

family of four for a month.

How does it taste?

Great. Great.

Yes,

only the finest foods come from writing
implements.

Are you ready for dessert?

Who doesn't love chocolate?

Have you tasted our chocolate that we do
with absorption?

Oh, it's really good. It's really good.

Do you want to take one home? Oh, great.

Okay. It's just a basic sponge cake and
just a regular vanilla buttercream

frosting.

And we do each one individually, so we
do this at a party, too, if you want.

Okay. And we put the cupcake inside
there like that.

It just gets a little bit of chocolate
right directly on top of it. Oh, my

goodness. Yeah.

It is a little loose there.

There we go.

And because, you know, sponge cake is
called sponge cake for a reason, you

It'll soak it up. Yeah, it'll soak it
up, and it absorbs it.

And then I just tap it inside like that
a little.

Okay. Agitation.

So when you, like if I ordered them, do
you put the chocolate syrup on here or I

do it when I get home? You can do it
when you get home. A lot of people like

do it themselves. Like I was going to
serve it later. Because it tastes the

fresh.

Oh my.

When it happens instantly.

That is so amazing.

Yeah.

That is so cool.

Yeah. When you bake chocolate, it sort
of loses its flavor a little bit.

So it's best to do all of the baking
first.

How do you not get any, like, in the
box? It sucks it all right up.

Unbelievable. Yeah, it absorbs it. That
is so cool.

Yeah, and it's, I mean, you can smell
how potent that is, right?

I love that idea. But you take that
home, and I would eat it within the next

hours. Oh, okay. Yeah.

It's the best that way.

Wow. Fresh absorbed chocolate for you.
Thank you. All right, you enjoy that.

Bye -bye.

I love playing with my food.

I also love playing with the minds of
human beings, which I'll be doing more

right after this.

Hey there, welcome back to the Carbonaro
Effect Holiday Survival Guide, Act 2,

Preparation.

Even though prepping for the holidays
can be stressful, remember, little

miracles can happen anywhere in your
heart.

in your home, in a mini golf course.

We're going to be setting up another
little obstacle here. All right. So you

maybe help me. Are you good with, like,
putting furniture together?

Shy I can be.

So, Jen, we're just going to lift this
up and kind of put a new one together

here. There we go. Bring it over here.

Excellent.

This is going to be a new one of those?

This is different. I think it's more
like it goes with the chicken or

Oh, okay.

This says B. That one will probably be
yours, right? The back? Yes.

You got a side?

There we go. Okay, good.

Yeah, and then this is the back.

This would be like a little farmhouse or
something?

Yeah, like a farmhouse, and I think the
ball goes through the front.

Oh, that's it in the back.

That's it?

Yeah.

And the roof line.

Yeah, line it up, and then...

And so I think the ball goes up a rant
on the front.

There's no hole in the front. Oh,
there's no hole in there.

No, hold on a minute.

We'll use the directions.

Decorative feature.

That's all the pieces, right? Yeah,
except that holiday accessory.

What's holiday accessory? I have no
idea.

Is that on the bottom?

Holiday accessory?

Oh, my God.

Whoa.

Where's the green at? What the heck?

Wait, where did this turkey come from?

I have no idea.

Does it bite?

I have no idea. I wouldn't touch it.

It's not part of the thing. It's real.

That is so weird.

What?

Where did this come from?

I've never been this close to a turkey,
ever. Yeah, it's like, happy

Thanksgiving, man.

Okay.

Now, don't feel bad for the turkey.

I invited him over to my house for
Thanksgiving.

The truth is...

I've always been a sucker for this time
of year.

When my Uncle Joey would be outside in
the yard raking leaves, cursing nature.

Yeah, let's face it, raking leaves can
be a pain.

Unless you have the latest in leaf
-gathering technology.

Hey, Randy, what's going on? It's Clark.

Yeah, I'm here with David, right?

Yeah, David, yeah. I'm here with David,
and we're trying to... He doesn't have

any extra bags, and it's just me and
him, and there is a lot of...

Okay. What are they, chlorella tabs?

What are chlorella tabs?

Never heard of that.

I don't either. Let's see if there's
something.

Oh, here you go, yeah.

Huh?

Chlorella tabs.

Oh, okay.

Fine.

He said here.

I don't even really know what that is.
What does it say on there?

Fill bag with leaves, place compositing.

Composting tablet on top. Okay. Compress
tablet to bottom of bag and then repeat

as necessary until leaves are at the
desired size.

It just like makes it flat or something?

Yeah. I think it helps it mulch.

Okay. Take out a tablet, yeah.

Should I touch it with my hand? Yeah,
it's just this one little thing.

And then it goes in the, just drop it in
there. And I think as soon as it,

that's why it's in a...

And it's aluminum pouch?

Yeah, once it touches, it lets up like a
gap with all the leaves.

I've never heard of that.

One of those.

That's insane.

Wow.

So we can do the whole park with just
one bag?

I guess it says as needed, so I guess
you could just use one bag.

That's crazy, yeah.

That's a first for me right there.

It said as needed?

This is it, dude. Look at it.

It like held it up.

Yeah.

How?

That is crazy.

It's, like, compacted down.

Never even heard of that. Here, grab one
more pill if it's as needed.

I think it'll go in.

What do you think it'll do to it?

I don't know. Let's try it.

Because it's hard now, but, like, if I
put the pill in it, maybe it'll do that

same.

Oh, yeah, look at it go.

Oh, my gosh.

Wow.

I could just crush that thing?

What?

That's cool right there. Wow.

See, I'm new every day, don't you?

Dude, that's... Let me go get some
wipes.

I'll be right back. Yeah, make sure
those are warnings.

That's crazy.

I don't know why they just don't
sprinkle them all over the leaves.

That's what I was thinking, too. Hey,
what do you think that would do?

Nothing more heartwarming than leaving a
guy alone with an impossible task.

Well, I hope you're not working over the
holidays.

If you're lucky, your employer throws
you an annual party.

If you're unlucky, I'm the guy helping
you plan for it.

How are you?

I need some items for a barnyard thing.
And I need anything with

pigs, horses.

You know, barnyard.

For a barnyard party.

Yeah, barnyard party. I have beehive. I
have a pig.

I have a whole catalog of different
animals.

How much is the pig?

It is $20 unfilled or $50 when we fill
it for you with wonderful. Give me

$20 unfilled. $20 unfilled it is. All
right. Okay. And then what kind

of animals do you have?

Like, where I could put up on the wall.

Oh, that's a good idea. Yeah.

So this, you can, this one actually is
filled, but I can empty it for you.

Okay, yeah, I think someone was going to
take this.

Okay. You know what, they didn't.

Yeah, really.

We do all kinds of different parties.
Right.

I understand.

Uh -oh. No, nice catch.

Yeah. Yeah, I used to play softball. Oh,
what is this? Oh, this is about beer

paring, I think. Okay, that's right. Oh,
this is, we were doing a fraternities

party. Uh -huh.

Goodness.

Can you get it? I'll hold it. I'll hold
it.

Thank you. I don't even know what... Oh,
that's the funnel goes... Uh -huh.

Right. Oh, okay. Like a hookah, I guess.
Like a hookah, yeah. Hookah, yeah.

Yeah, that's good. Okay.

So you probably don't want any of these
items.

Nope. Nope, nope, nope, nope.

Okay.

Lollipop. Not going to need those.

Okay. And, okay. I think that's it.
There's a second chamber here.

Okay. There.

All right. Wow.

Yeah. You can really load these up.
Check this out. I see. Yep. We got some

wings.

And, yeah. Oh, okay. Tequila.

Yeah. They were going to have a really
wild rager party. Snack them.

Salsa.

Well, when I know somebody wants that
type of party, I will send them here.

Absolutely.

Oh, wait, one more.

Oh, whoa.

That's real.

Get out.

No, I didn't stuff this one myself, so I
don't know. Yeah, I mean, they do.

Now, you know pigs squeal when you lift
them. Right, right.

They squeal when they come out. Hey,
baby.

Once they're out, they're okay.

I don't want that one. I don't want that
one.

I'm going to get another pinata.

I emptied it for you.

I don't want that one. He's number two.

I don't want that one.

No, I don't want it.

Because if he's number two to number
one, you know they don't want it. Okay,

I'll keep that one. They're trained.

We don't put anything inside our pinatas
that have not been trained.

And if not, you know, met federal
regulations for the safety. I'll take

one. Okay, good. And are there any items
here you would like for your pinata?

Nope,

that's about it.

Yeah, the pinata. This is my holiday
special. I can include any holiday I

Happy Cinco de Mayo, everybody.

Okay, when we come back, we'll answer
the classic holiday question.

What in the box?

Oh, my God.

We'll be right back.

Hey, welcome back to a special episode
of The Carbonaro Effect, where we're

helping you survive the holidays with
tricks no one has ever seen before.

And we've saved the best one for last.

I remember that sensation I had as a kid
waking up.

finding presents that just magically
appeared underneath the tree.

Well, I wanted to remind someone else of
how that felt and let them experience

the ultimate holiday impossibility.

I'm Michael. I'm Megan.

Hi, Megan.

Have you ever worked here before? No, I
haven't.

A Barker and Burger?

Nope. Okay, so we're liquidators, and we
just go through stuff from like a state

sale, you know, foreclosed homes, things
like that. So all of this stuff just

came in, and I'm just kind of writing
down what's what. Okay.

Megan, you said? Yeah. Megan, cool. You
can just sit right here. It's pretty

cozy. Okay, cool.

I wrote all these down, so I'll bring
you a box.

Okay. And it's such an interesting
place, too. They found this house that

there were squatters in it. There's,
like, people living in it. Yeah. But

didn't have any running water.

But they had all this really nice stuff.
Everything's, like, super clean,

totally lived -in home.

Not a clue who was there. Nobody owns
it. No running water.

And this is all the stuff that came for
me? And this is all the stuff, yeah.

Where was this house located?

Upstate. Oh, really? Okay.

And, oh, yeah, so a lot of weird things.

You know, and you never know. Some of
this stuff could be worth a lot.

Like costumes, yeah.

Yeah.

Like this is nice, though. I know we
don't deal with it, but I'm going to

probably show it to the owners and see
if they want to do something with that.

They might work with another, you know,
a wardrobe house or something that would

be interested in that.

So, like, shoot, like.

You have boots, huh?

It's so interesting. I almost want to
keep this stuff to solve the mystery of

who these people were. Yeah.

Wait,

there's another thing here, too. Hold
on.

This case is actually really nice, too.

They've made a lot of money on boxes
like this. Yeah.

Whoa. Oh, yeah, look at this in here.

Oh, yeah, gloves.

She said no clothes, so I'm not going to
do clothes. Okay. Yeah.

Okay. But the case, I would say. I would
say something, because, you know, this

is a nice -looking case. Yeah.

so um just put like a antique uh steamer
trunk i guess okay and

yeah i like these things this one's in
really good shape you know sometimes

can make a lot more money on just the
boxes you know when they're in good

condition like this than people would
ever make on the other ones this is good

but it's riveted it's strong when you
see those rivets all the way around yeah

yeah that's strong

Yeah, you can mark that down. I'd say an
antique trunk. And I'm going to grab

one more box from lot 36. Okay.

Which I have.

Oh, my God.

Wait a second. Wait.

What is going... What is happening?

Um, someone just came out of there.

Sorry? Like, a guy who looks like Santa
Claus just came out of there.

After you closed it.

What?

Yeah, I swear. And he took that robe.

Wait, what?

Yeah. Someone came in here?

No, no, no, no. Like, they came out.
Like, he, like...

Wait, what?

Like, I was, like, sitting there, and
all of a sudden I heard something, and

then it was, like, opening like this,
and I was like, what the hell?

And then this guy, literally, who...
Whoa. Looks like, what the hell?

What is going on?

I was like sitting there and all of a
sudden I heard something and then it was

like opening like this and I was like
what the hell and then this guy

who looks like what the hell what is
going on I have no idea what is

happening I have no idea this has my
name on it what is this I don't know

where did this what's going on shut up
did you do this what are you doing no I

have no idea what's happening are you
playing a joke on me no I'm so confused

There was nothing in here, no.

No.

Someone came out of the box.

Yes.

Yeah, yeah. And left you a present. Left
me a present. And you want me to

believe that?

I didn't bring it. Well, what did you
ask for?

I don't know. I didn't ask for anything.

What the hell is going on?

It's a bone.

Yeah, it says my dog's name on it. Okay.

And you just saw Santa Claus?

Yeah. And he gave you a present? Yeah,
you think I'm crazy.

I do think you're a little bit crazy,
yes. No!

He got out. Right.

And he looked like Santa Claus.

And then he picked up that, like,
whatever it was. The cloak thing? The

thing and walked out.

Yeah, I don't know what's happening.

I mean, you're not thinking it's like
the real Santa Claus.

I mean, I don't know. Maybe.

That can't be the real Santa Claus. I
mean, I don't know. He gave my dog a

And it says his name on it.

This has got to be like the Carbonaro
effect.

Yeah, you think I'm crazy.

I do think you're a little crazy, but
you look so sincere like you're telling

the truth. I really just don't know
what's happening. That's the Carbonaro

effect. I just don't know what's
happening.

Megan? Yeah?

Do you know the Carbonaro effect is also
the name of a hidden camera magic TV

show? No, no. That you're on right now?
No, I'm not. Yes, you are.

No, I'm not.

No. Merry Christmas, Megan. Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. Isn't that crazy?

Oh, my God. I, like, cannot believe this
is happening.

I didn't know what to say.

So that's our special holiday show for
you guys.

From me and everyone at the Carbonaro
Effect family, have a happy and healthy

season. See you soon.
