Saying them their is a very quick and dirty way of saying those things over there. It's a really common expression in some areas. Kind of a country slang thing.
I the joke they are writing it like them/they as if it is a person's pronouns.
It's just word play at work which is usually a defining character of dad jokes
Thank you
Happy to help. Most welcome
