Oh, he got it that time.
That was good.
He said, here we go, and we went,
welcome to 100% eat Nick's here.
Did you know?
The show where we try every fast food restaurant
to let you know if you need it, you probably do.
I'm your host, Michael Jones, alongside my co-host, Jordan Swirs.
Jordan, how are you in your Vanilla Coke?
Thank you for the Vanilla Coke.
It's nice and cold, too.
It's been chilled.
Michael brought me treat.
Michael brought Nick Treat?
Yeah, Michael brought me treat.
I brought the pull-up bar that Nick would always,
I think that was the one that I had.
Man, maybe it was a different one.
But I remember being a different color,
but it's definitely the same.
kind.
Yeah.
But it was a pain in the ass at the office
because it was, you know, like an airport hangar.
So there was no regular doors.
If there were, they were not real.
The only door that worked was the one
into the little like side room.
It was the loose of shit.
He was losed of shit.
But Nick come in there.
You'd run in there.
That was the best too when like he would come in there
when people who like Nick and didn't know.
Yeah.
Like Joe.
Like who didn't really like interact with.
They would just walk in.
And they'd just do a bunch of pull-ups.
And then I come back and they're like,
Who was that guy?
Nick was in here?
No, they don't.
They're not Gracie.
Yeah.
Who was that?
Who was that bald?
Who was that ball bag?
We would just walk in, nodded, did bullups and left.
Was that?
Was that Bernie?
He would do it like five times throughout the day.
It was good.
So now he can do it here.
That's great.
That's great.
And vanilla Coke for Jordan.
I could lift this, I guess.
Yeah, you can.
Whoa, careful.
Don't she, don't.
Whoa.
Too strong.
I also got Dr. Pepper and Cream soda.
Oh.
I think I've tried that and was like I was looking for something that was
Vanilla Coke adjacent.
Right.
I mean, you got the real thing.
And it did not hit.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I got it because my kid is super into Dr. Piper now.
Oh, is that right?
Just like Grace.
Just like Gracie.
Yeah.
I got a die Dr. Pepper today like Gracie.
I sent a picture or a video yesterday to.
I did make, end up making a separate SpongeBob chat.
It's true.
Oh, thank you.
It was clear that not, not everyone was, was digging the SpongeBob.
You guys are absolutely going to be forced to get a couple of them.
I mean, I understand.
Right.
But then there's a point where I go, it's too far.
And so I'll move over.
Right.
So the goofy gobers.
Yeah, I call the goofy goobers.
But there was a video we're watching SpongeBob and Luna was hugging SpongeBob on the TV.
And I sent it and I was like, Luna hung SpongeBob and crazy was like, hmm, I should do that.
I have a big TV.
I have a big TV here.
I can do it.
It makes Spongebob life size.
They really are.
They're closer than me and Gracie or my kids and Gracie.
I mean, not numerically.
It is very close.
But like brain-wise, they are definitely closer.
In the spirit.
It's why I have my relationship with Gracie is like an adult child.
I don't have little sister energy with Gracie.
They would also see a rat on the ground and go, ooh, his name is Bruce Franklin.
Bruce Franklin.
Yeah, one of my kids would for sure.
Oh, yeah.
One of my kids would, for sure.
One might be like, whoa.
I've seen Roblox.
Yeah.
Hell yeah.
You know what else we've seen?
What's that?
Freddy's.
That's another restaurant.
Smash Burger Taco.
That's right.
We've never been the Freddy's before.
We've never been there either.
We're venturing into some new restaurants for the show.
I never even heard of it, I think, until you started talking about it.
How many times have you been there, Nick?
Just a couple.
But he still had the inside info on the sauce.
Yeah.
And which one you like?
You had with me.
We don't.
We.
You guys think, we like this one.
We did like it.
We've had this one before.
Eric's pointed out in the right long back.
He's like, we means him.
You dipped in my sauce.
I don't remember this at all.
You dipping in his sauce?
Does your wife know?
Yeah, she's mad.
Nick would never forget such an intimate moment.
So we go to, we go to the Freddy's, we ate there
because it's like a distance from where we are.
They're like, what a drive though?
That's such an interesting.
Crazy drive there.
Any drive that's a distance is usually like highway?
Highway.
You know, not like Jordan said through grandmother's house.
Over the river and through the woods.
Yeah.
So it's a little bit of a distance.
The ride to get there was like up some like main thoroughfare and then off the beaten path.
You go somewhere like neighborhoods.
You're going down a road long enough to go from, this is a main thoroughfare to nobody's out here.
No one's out here.
It's just it's old trees and dead grass and horses and cool jackets.
And that's it.
Some horses and cool jackets.
And then we were just kind of thinking, I put some interesting people live out here.
It's like going through, it's going like on a main road getting in the neighborhood, usually, and that's where you stop.
Yes.
But then you leave that neighborhood a little bit back to another neighborhood.
Back to it.
It's like, what the fuck?
We had gone so far and like had reintered like somewhat like civilization.
And then we went through another neighborhood that was rural.
The weirdest thing.
And it wasn't just like one turn.
No.
It was blocks and blocks.
Every turn in this neighborhood was the first turn you could take block after block after block.
It was strange.
It was like, it's just the fastest way to Freddy's.
It means there's no fast way to Freddy's.
It just kept going.
In 250 feet, make it right.
In 200 feet make it left.
In 300 feet, make it right.
And I was like, what the fuck?
In 300 feet, do a kickflip.
Dude, it was crazy.
So it was a drive out there and we're like, we'll just eat here
because it's going to take us half an hour or whatever to get back to the house.
So just eat here, whatever.
We order the food and Nick grabs all the sauces and then comes back and starts like
Maybe I was getting my drink
You were getting your phone
And then a drink
I forgot it in the car
And he sat down with me and Jordan
And he went
All right so
This is a sauce that we've had
And so I got two of them
Because we know they're good
We know they're good
So these are the other two
That we're going to try
And it was like original
And I was like looking at my phone
And like he kept talking
And I just kind of went
What?
Are you talking about it?
You know they're good
You've had them
But then he noticed, which I noticed immediately,
they sell bottles of the sauce.
So then before we even got the food.
Yes.
He ran over and bought a butt.
There it is.
He liked it.
Look how fucking blurry that is.
He went and bought the one that you knew was good, the jalapeno.
What's it called?
Freddy's jalapeno fry sauce.
They say fry sauce.
Yes, fry sauce is like that.
I don't know why.
So he is sitting there and he goes.
they sell the sauce and we go okay and he's like they have it in bottles and we went okay and he's
like we should buy some yeah we should buy some and we all just went I mean if you I guess if you want
to whatever and he went I have my card and he went okay then go buy it and then he like lickety
split got up well that's what he was waiting soon it was waiting for everyone to agree that he
should buy yeah I agreed also also it didn't feel like anyone really agreed we all just sort of went
oh I agree okay I agree yeah I was for it it's our money so he definitely
went over there and then I got a picture of him
like it was covert where he's like
Oh you fuck.
Oh yeah, yeah.
I also like he kept, he said this there to and he's like
Hey, it's our money.
That every other time he doesn't say it goes, it's free.
It's free. It's free. It's free. It's free. It's free. And I was like,
hey guys, it is our money. Yeah.
Wait. And then, uh, so then he bought the fry sauce
and then we, uh, we had this meal. We had this
smash burger taco. But we also got
cheese curds and onion rings. Solid.
That were so fucking good.
And a custard.
And we got the, we got a, we call it a concrete.
A rhesus custard.
A custard with like wreaths in it.
Fuck, all of that stuff was so good.
We started dipping the cheese curds in the any rings or whatever in the fry sauces.
Sampling all of them.
And the jalapeno one's like, oh, that was pretty good.
Me and Jordan hit on the smoky fry sauce.
Yeah, I think that one was the best.
I think that was the best one too.
He'll remember for next time.
Uh-huh.
And then, and then Michael tried the original.
I like, I like that.
He's like, I think that's my favorite.
The jalapeno didn't really have that much kick.
Zero jalapenia.
But, you know, but as we know, there was a bad batch.
Could be.
We do know that.
He wants you to throw it to him.
That was not far enough.
It was overhand and somehow didn't reach me.
That was crazy.
Well, I was like, you went like this.
You went like this and Nick's went, what?
So here's the thing.
I'm so glad that did not explode.
Dented is shit.
That would have been ever.
Oh.
Yeah.
We get some liquid smoke to put in it.
Then it's smoky.
That's not going to make it taste.
You know that?
The smoke one was good.
You guys like smoke more than me.
Yeah, okay.
It was fine.
I'm going to try this.
Well, I meant them because they like it the most.
Bad batch?
There is more jalapeno flavor in this.
Okay, that's good.
This tastes.
Good batch.
This tastes totally different from what we had at the restaurant.
Really?
Now, describe what you were told about the batch of jalapeno.
When you bought this, you went up to buy this.
She said that this would look good because the other.
were lacking the spice that this one held within it.
So that's crazy to me that like obviously they don't bottle it there.
Right.
They get it somewhere.
Yeah, no, this definitely comes from I assume canv.
But like either she knew or someone complained to them
that a previous batch was not that spicy.
She's pretty empty any criticism.
Yeah, for her to inform Nick unprompted,
hey, just so you know, this one looks good.
The last one was a bad badge.
But maybe that bad batch, as you said, was in the little packets.
The best part about this too, though, is so we left, and we got two.
He got two of the one that you knew you liked.
We opened one of each of them.
Baby.
Didn't open that one.
And I went, so we're taking this when you bought this.
And he was like, I can't waste it.
Can't waste it.
It's for the drawer.
And I'm not going to throw it away.
And I went, you could have just given it back.
And he went, I didn't think about that.
It's like, we just bought a whole bottle of it.
By the way, this says a best buy date of February 14th of this year.
So we're still going to.
Well, that's best buy.
That's not exploration date.
Please recognize you best buy it by then.
Nick just looked at his watch to check the date as if he was taking up the challenge.
Well, you can do it.
I don't care.
I mean, just put it on everything.
Put it on everything you eat.
We got to refrigerate it because he opened it.
It's opened.
It tastes like he ruined it by opening it.
Yeah, I ruined it.
Oh, look, he just gave you.
It was.
He didn't stop to think about what you said.
And it was head cog.
Yeah.
Now, there's a word for that.
Hmm.
What is it?
Reaction.
I think it's...
I don't get you.
No.
Was it going?
It has more heat in the back of your throat.
It has a jalapeno flavor on your tongue.
There's no heat on your tongue.
Hell yeah.
It tastes totally different from that.
Oh, it's totally different.
It's absolutely, it's a hundred,
Jordan, it's a hundred percent in a better way?
I don't know if it's better, but it's different.
Let me try a little bit.
So this is their jalapeno fry sauce.
Oh, fuck.
Oh, come on.
I mean, what do you?
Don't.
him? Just lick it off your hand, cat style.
Look it off your hand, cat style.
No.
Nick keeps screaming, lick it.
Lick your hand. Okay.
That's a good one for the monkey eight ball.
Jesus Christ.
Now we're talking.
Thank you.
Funny, too.
There you go.
That's totally different.
Totally different.
It actually tastes like jalapeno.
It's actually pretty cool that you're vaping
while you're doing that too.
Nick thinks that's very awesome.
It tastes a lot like,
You're breaking even.
Yeah.
Health-wise.
It's on the head of the curve.
It tastes a lot like jalapeno, right?
I'm mostly vaping sour gush.
Did not get on the carpet.
Give a fuck.
I do.
Yeah, so I mean, I would clean it.
Yeah.
All right, Nick, tell us how that tastes.
Okay, hold on, let's see.
Listen, I was telling you, Jordan, I squeezed it a little bit.
Yep.
No, it's out there.
I mean, he does know it's out there.
I think he just thought there might be another one in there.
She might be wrong.
It doesn't need to, it needs to change.
Now what do you mean...
It didn't need to be...
Now, what do you mean by she...
Maybe she was wrong.
You think that's also...
Maybe this is a bad batch.
Hold on, let's see.
There's heat in the back of my throat
from what I tasted.
There's more spice in that than there was in this.
Hey, have you ever the flavor is on?
Have you considered this?
Shut the fuck up.
That's what he's thinking.
I'm just gonna say it.
No, I'm saying the flavor's off completely.
It tastes very different.
It tastes very different.
That's not, but she...
The heat might be there, but the flavor's different.
So they could...
Maybe this batch fixed the heat,
but fucked up the flavor.
Yeah.
That's what we are saying.
We know.
You knew.
Now we know.
Now you don't know.
I know you got a slow reaction.
This guy is out of his mind.
Wow.
Now, crack that open you compared to that.
Now we're going to save that.
We've got to save it.
I know.
I was only kidding, obviously.
I was sort of insane.
But that's what we said on the ride-along that.
He's going to save the sauce and then he's going to get mad if somebody does it.
You have to save it.
never use it. Yeah, exactly. It's like me with items and video games, but at least they're
digital and don't exist in real life and take a space. It's a drawer. I can, it's a, it's a, okay,
I guess it doesn't take up space. It's a drawer. It's not put in there. It's not,
it's not, it's not, it's in mass. It doesn't exist. It's not out. It's in, baby. Did you
think about that? And it's in and in and don't you ever take it out. There's no out.
If there's out, as we've seen before, he gets upset. You know what the, you know what the only thing I
ever go digging around in there for, which I'd never find marinera sauce.
There's like none in there.
Anytime I look for, I would go, oh, do we have marinara?
It's usually like, we have like a mozzarella stick or like a cheddar cheddar pepper or something.
We used all those recently.
I know.
That's what I'm saying.
So it's, it is kind of like annoying to me as someone who enjoys the sauce, but not sauce like Nick.
We have a drawer of 8,000 sauces.
I'm like, no fucking marinerosos.
You just check the ledger.
It's just everything else that we never use.
We need the book.
We don't have any mariner sauce because we actually use it.
It's filled with things we don't use, but we keep putting more in.
Right.
I said, right.
I said the last time.
We'll always have stock of stuff we never use.
We'll always add more.
Right.
I use it.
No, you don't.
You don't.
One of the time.
Yeah, I would agree.
Every now and then he uses one or two versus 50 put in.
He uses one every dozen or two.
I said the last time he got upset about it was the horsey sauce and he said, yeah, don't touch it.
Now you're acting like his father.
Yeah.
Oh, boy.
You think it's worth.
He took it off the table.
You think it wasn't the meal that we had?
What's that mean?
That's good or bad?
It was from a meal that I had the previous day.
I'm saying what you're saying what you're describing makes you angry or you're okay with.
No, fuck that.
That's my sauce.
Okay.
Okay, got it.
Guys.
Because if you were like, to me, if you went, oh, he just took one from the table.
It's not for the meal we had.
I'd be like, oh, it's perfectly fine.
No, that's worse.
No.
Fuck you.
Yeah.
Go to the drawer, bitch.
You go into the back room.
You get the sauce from the garage.
All the refuse.
We're doing good.
For 15 minutes.
I'm talking about the place at all.
Excellent.
I was going to say,
no,
go ahead.
I think I've been to a Freddy's maybe one other time.
That's what I was going to ask.
I can't remember.
It was during the road trip and we stopped.
It was our,
I think it was the last night.
So we were just like south of Denver.
And we were staying somewhere in like maybe Colorado Springs.
Okay.
Yes.
Just north of Pueblo.
Yeah.
But we were in like a shopping center.
Yes.
That had a hotel.
Yeah.
And I think there was a Freddy's.
And I just got a frozen custard.
Oh.
Oh, there was.
I went over there by myself.
Jordan, you're right.
I remember that.
Yeah.
I do remember that.
I don't.
Yeah.
I remember.
I wouldn't remember if I went, so.
Because we had to go to a mall, like a gap or like a mall or stuff because I had to like buy new pants.
Yeah.
Why did you new pants?
To get five guys.
Michael and I have to see.
That I remember.
Yes.
I think the five guys was also there.
I remember five guys.
There was a thing where we all kind of like split up.
We all split up.
But then we all reconvened back at that hook.
hotel and everyone went and got weed and then came back and then cams went oh that was that's what it was I was walking back yeah that's what it was
that's yep from the freddies yep and then you guys were like out in the patio yes yeah and uh I walked right by
everyone I was like I got freddies yeah I do I do remember that so you have been there yeah so uh I don't remember what I got or
I'm sure it was I'm sure it was a frozen custard a concrete or whatever if you did it was probably good
the concrete we had today motherfucker that one was good wow now that was a good batch that
Yeah, that was a good batch.
I had it.
Michael was like,
have a bite.
I was like,
dude,
this might be better than a blizzard.
It might be better than Dairy Queen.
I mean,
that's a very low bar to clear.
I think Sonic.
I think Dairy Queen's like the highest bar
for like mix in ice cream stuff or whatever.
Exactly.
Well, I mean,
with the chunks,
I just don't agree with the ice cream.
Oh, no,
not not the ice cream,
but like the thing that I'm getting,
the thing that I'm getting is like the one piece.
Dairy Queen for me is like the top.
one, but
Custard is on an leak
It really is.
It really is.
It was so smooth.
Every bite, so
fucking smooth.
The ice cream was so good.
God damn.
Thick.
I didn't like that.
I don't know why you had to say it.
I liked it a lot.
Put that in the monkey eight ball.
That's what we've been talking about
what to put in this monkey eight ball
that we want to see if we can do.
That's why I stopped making suggestions
because I was like, man,
I'm going to do this for two days.
It's going to do it.
And we don't know how many we can't make it.
That's why I stopped.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
We also don't know if we can make it.
We have a mock up.
But we're stuck in idea land.
Yes.
And we have.
What are we put in it?
Because we're like, oh, you know, yes, no, like that kind of stuff.
But we're like, it needs to be yeah, like that.
And then no.
Yeah, exactly.
It needs to be no.
No.
Yeah.
And then ooh.
And we're trying to think of like, what are things that are conceivably
sauce monkey nick things to say?
Yeah.
But would also answer any yes or no question?
Sure.
Because if it were just phrases, we'd have a million.
Yeah.
It doesn't really help you.
Am I gonna get married?
And then it just says, I'll kill you.
Yeah.
Ask Eric.
The Ask Eric I thought was very funny.
Ask Eric is funny.
Sure, I think has to be in there because of that.
I wouldn't.
Yeah.
That's what I said.
So if you know any monkey phrases that should be in this eight ball, please let us know.
But please keep them in the.
You're right.
You're right.
It's a yes or no question.
You're right.
But keep them in context of answering a question that you would ask a monkey eight ball.
There's like the couple.
I wasn't listening.
Yeah.
I was thinking I was, that was the last one I was gonna, that was the last one I was gonna suggest.
And I went, I wanna go down this road.
And it was either I wasn't listening or I stopped listening.
Yeah, that was gonna be the last.
Because it's, it's the second one.
He Strip tells you I stopped me.
Oh, well, I thought I had enough information and I don't care.
This is what, this is your drink.
Stop listening halfway through.
You said this is, I'm answering when I stopped listening.
Right, this is mu.
And I just assumed you said mine and stop talking.
Yeah, exactly.
You were done talking.
You were done talking.
That's one, you're done.
So if you want the real,
if we make this magic eight ball
and this sauce monkey experience,
what you want to do is start asking a question.
Shake it in the middle of your question
and then get the answer
before you're done asking.
Ask two questions.
Ask one question.
We are also saying that we need to like,
we're going to have to make a video
that explains how to interpret all the answers as well.
Right.
We want you to know how to read it.
Yeah.
You know, if it is made and created.
Maybe even when we do,
Maybe if we know we can make it, we come up with our own
and then we leave a slot for the audience.
Ooh.
Do like a poll for them to like come up with one or something.
Okay.
Put it on Patreon.
I think that's fun.
It's a really good idea.
What is the shape of the thing that's in there?
Like how many sides are on it?
Because essentially it's like a die.
Essentially it's like five or eight or whatever.
Sides by making it triangular.
So I think it's like seven or eight sides.
Something like that, right?
But we'll have to see.
So we have the ask out.
We're going to try it again.
We have a mock up.
I feel really good about it.
I feel really good about it.
It looks really cool.
I made it in Photoshop and I felt like that.
Stretching your Photoshop skills.
Oh boy.
Hey,
Hey Jordan,
to their limit.
Yeah.
I could show your mock up to one of my kids and see if they can draw a better one.
Yeah,
I mean,
it'll probably be neck and neck.
I'll be like,
if you can take it to a Sigma,
then absolutely.
I can.
Yeah, yeah.
I think that's pretty cool.
I was standing by that sign earlier.
Mm-hmm.
Do you see the new one I had it?
Yeah.
What was that?
That's another guy from Dandy's role.
But Luna drew that and then taped it to her face.
Awesome.
She was walking around like that.
I do want to get to the...
It looks like a murderer.
I do want to get to the facts.
But I feel like we learned so much at Freddy's.
It's true.
From the restaurant itself.
Nick and I...
She really is doing that.
It's pretty good.
She looks like a little character from like a Jibli movie.
Yeah, absolutely.
It does.
It does look like a little floating face or something.
So at every table we sat at, there's a photo from the 1940s.
And like an explanation about like what this restaurant is.
It's just like a fun fact of the timeline.
Yeah.
It's very.
And I was like,
oh,
how many of these are going to show up on the fact sheet?
Doesn't look like any of them.
Some.
There was one.
The one that made me a laugh was like,
I guess he was born in like the 20s in Kansas.
So it was like he's on a rural picture of like his farm family.
Yeah.
But the caption said in 1936,
Freddie so and so went to,
California on a family trip.
This is where he may have had a steak burger
for the first time. What does that
mean? Fucking crazy.
We're just guessing. May ha!
First of all, he had it in California. It's not even
an interesting fact. No, if you knew it.
And also, you don't. Yeah.
Who cares? We're taking a guess here.
Ever since he was 12 years old,
he tried a burger.
He couldn't get it out of his mind.
Maybe. So we sent him to war.
He spent his
Okay, okay.
Okay, I googled Freddy's founder.
Yeah, the first auto complete is Freddick.
The second auto company is Freddy's founder still alive.
The third is Freddy's founder dead.
We were for this Freddy's founder network.
Yep.
Let me hang on see.
I'm willing to bet he's deceased.
I think if he was in World War II.
If he was in World War II, close.
He died in 2020 at 95.
Oh, whoa.
Oh, cool.
Then I have some interesting stuff that will go into.
He was old in 2003.
That timeline's very, very.
interesting. It was saying how old he was.
Now, let me ask, was it COVID?
Oh, I don't know.
Probably not. I think it was just being
alive too long. It doesn't say, but you know, it could
be. If you were old in 2020?
Yeah. And like if you were that old.
And you were in Kansas?
Oh, brother. I'm not wearing a mask. Yeah.
Okay. See you later.
But.
But. But he learned his son, his son who were like
co-founders or whatever. What we can learn
about that in the facts. All right. All right. Let's not get
our own facts. Yeah, I know. Let's get our facts.
We already did that. We already did that at the restaurant.
We already did it at the restaurant.
That's a thumbnail. You got a purple heart.
I learned that too. No!
He's got a fucking black heart.
Hell yeah. Cold black heart, tiny, like your peevee.
Saw it on the ride-alongs like that.
Oh yeah, watch the ride-along.
It was a dramatic ending.
You see something you don't want to see.
Okay. Here go to facts.
Freddy grew up on a farm near Colwich, Kansas.
I already knew that.
Just outside of Wichita.
After finishing high school, Freddie enlisted in the U.S. Army serving the Pacific Rim region during World War II, a self-proclaimed regular guy.
Which is a normal thing to say.
He was awarded the Purple Heart for injuries sustained during service, as well as a bronze star for valor.
Fact taken from Freddie's website.
Oh, what kind of valor?
Stolen, probably.
Oh, Earn.
Oh, you don't get the bronze star for stealing unless you steal the bronze star.
Oh, shit.
Well, you can give it to me or I'll invade your house.
So how about that?
So now what, Jordan?
I'm no longer concerned with Bronzer.
Now if you were to give him your Emmy, did he win the Emmy?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And he's safe for one more day.
Whoa.
That's all it buys him until he melted down.
I know Norway is responsible for this.
Yeah, if somebody starts talking to me over here
about something else, I forgot you even exist.
Someone needs to distract him.
Remember that horse jacket?
Yeah.
The Simon brothers, the sons of Freddie who started first,
were actually Pizza Hut franchisees
before starting in the burger game.
There's a burger game?
That's their game.
Pizza Hut, also a product of Kansas,
was started by two brothers.
Could brothers be the secret X factor
to creating a restaurant?
Would Papa John still be a pizza owner
if he had a brother to help him?
An actual brother?
Not like a brother.
Like what he's probably thinking
when we say brother.
Not like brother, you know like brother,
but like a real brother.
Like a brother, brother.
No, not like, no, like, you know,
what, like a brother,
like his brother, not his brother?
Like, no, that's not what we mean.
It looks like the day of reckoning has come.
He had fun with that one.
Oh, brother.
He had fun with that one,
and I had to make sure about six times
I wasn't rereading the same sentence,
but I wasn't.
I didn't even, I stream of conscious that.
I never went back and re-rathered change it.
I just kept going.
There's a lot of italics in there, too.
Not his brother.
Not like a brother, brother.
So, you're always.
related, right? So you were talking about,
you were talking about Freddie dying in 2020.
That's a joke in the first episode of Sunny.
In 2020, Freddy dies.
Yeah. His sons sell the restaurant to private equity in like 2021 or
2022. They couldn't wait. They come and install a new CEO.
They waited long enough. It was 95, Jordan. They couldn't wait any
possible longer. So within the last few years,
I love you, death, die!
Die!
It's like he was like 80 and they're like,
he's going to go to any.
Oh, yeah, Jesus Christ.
What's he got?
15 months?
Yeah, try 15 years.
Finally, they can sell the business
and retire at age 70.
Yeah, yeah.
Prince Charles.
Yeah, yeah.
Restaurants.
I'm finally we can enjoy life.
So they sell it to private equity.
I'd be so mad.
I'll be honest, I'd be so mad.
Right after that,
come on.
The private equity firms
kicks out one of the brother
and installs a new seat.
and then kicks out the other brother
and installs a new C-O
and I just go, this had to be by design
but God damn it, that's fucking phenomenal.
It's a really funny story.
So, we're catching maybe the tail end of Freddy's.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
Well, it's not, I mean, they're coming up with such great ideas now.
Yeah.
You know?
Taco burger.
Save it bread money.
Think about it.
Taco burger.
Saving bread money.
I don't know how you're saving on,
if you're just buying something else.
Hang on.
How are they saving on bread money?
Cheaper than bread.
I don't know.
Put in the eight ball.
Yes, and.
Yes and.
I don't know.
No,
we won't.
Put yes and dot dot dot, dot, dot, question mark.
I didn't say that.
I'll fly it.
Watch it right along.
Oh, my God.
Well, we're going back to Freddie's website.
Yeah.
According to Freddy's website,
Freddie is not a fast food restaurant,
but rather a fast casual restaurant.
The difference between the two
isn't made entirely clear,
so we're not a box.
podcast anymore. We're an interactive audio experience.
Hell yeah. If you're listening to this in your car, honk your horn now to participate in the show and become something more than yourself.
You're the sauce monkey now more than yourself.
It sounds like joining the army.
Yeah. We're trying to get it. This is part of the interactive audio experience. Right, Nick?
It's no longer like radio is passe. The morning shows, uh, we're an interactive audio experience.
That's why Nick got out of radio. He was ahead of the game.
Choose your own adventure podcast. That's why Nick's going to get out of the podcasting soon.
It's kind of ahead of the game.
Interactive audio, here I go.
Yep.
Here I come.
That's a threat.
That's why we moved on from wrist your teeth willingly.
Yes, absolutely.
We knew.
We were ready.
We said we're not a podcast for interactive audio experience.
We could see it in the tea leaves.
Yeah.
And then Warner Brothers said this is worth nothing to us.
You can just that.
That part was cool.
That part was cool.
It rocked.
It was so lucky.
Like some stuff I understood what they were like, this is worth value because they don't have to
know shit.
They're just like catalog and like data and stuff.
Other stuff.
I don't know how they said is worth money.
Right.
We thinks this is worth money.
Yeah.
This one is not.
I'm like this?
I'll take it.
Yep.
Freddy's claims that a misconception
about their quote,
Freddy's famous fry sauce
is that it's just mustard and ketchup
mixed together.
Nick knows it's not.
For a more thorough analysis
on the sauce,
we turn this over to Nick
in a segment we called
Sauce Vestigations.
Nick, what is there fry sauce?
And would you be mad
if your father-in-law took some of yours?
Full circle!
I'm so happy.
It came up earlier and I just went,
No way!
Yes!
What would you say the fry sauce is, Nick?
It's probably those two things in mayo.
Those two things came in mayo.
I was reading it, and he went, it's not.
It's actually one third thing.
It probably is.
Probably also a third thing.
A little bit of spice.
All right, as an interactive audio experience,
skip 30 seconds to get Nick's other reaction
when we ask him this question.
Yep.
This contains eggs.
by the way, so I don't know if that's gonna hurt you.
It's not gonna hurt me, but I'll fart.
Oh, cool.
Sweet. On you.
I don't know.
There's like nothing in this.
You say sweet?
Yeah, it was funny.
Okay. All right, I'm just making sure.
Hey, you're not gonna like this.
Soybean oil, okay.
Ketchup.
Yeah, distilled vinegar, which is just,
it's just the part of mustard that they're doing.
Mustard.
Green jalapeno pepper.
Right, well, that's what makes it halibon.
Mustard seed.
Okay, part of mustard.
Oil is like mayo.
Garlic.
onion, but onion has a little asterisk
next to it, which means it's the hydrated.
And then everything else is
like
sodium glycumate
and citric acid. Sounds like it's just
ketchup with mustard. It does.
Natural flavor includes mustard.
Why even bother making that? You know what McDonald's does?
They just put mustard and ketchup on it. Uh-huh. Yeah. Separately.
Right.
It's for their fries.
I'm just saying. What you hadn't considered
is that it's for their fries. Yeah.
Okay.
We also didn't have any.
fries. No, we know we didn't.
We got a lot of fry sauce. We had fry adjacent things.
We did have fry adjacent things. Those are known as sides.
They were adjacent to our meal. Reflex.
Yeah, man, that's what he said. He said reflex and you wouldn't listen.
I think that's what happened. Yeah. I'm pretty sure that's what happened.
Nobody, Jeremy said so. Nobody's using this word.
I'm bringing it back. Um, or do you think Jordan should read this last one?
No.
Oh, God.
I saw the upward word.
What's the problem?
I saw two operative words.
As written by Eric.
Yep.
Oh dear.
On September 11th,
2025,
Freddy's fired one of their general managers
for posting, quote,
Another one bites the dust
in response to Charlie Kirk's shooting.
Freddy's tweeted,
the opinions expressed by this individual
and no way represent Freddy's views.
We do not condone any act of violence.
This person is...
Well, they both are, Jordan.
This person is no longer employed by the company.
Our thoughts and prayers are with those all affected
by the senseless acts of violence
that occurred yesterday.
Thoughts and prayers, guys.
We're at both sides interactive audio experience.
If you have strong opinions about this, honk your worn now.
Show solidarity as a centrist, which is the true podcast way.
Beep, beep, we say.
Thoughts and beeps to all you regarding this good or bad or neutral thing,
depending on how you subscribe to the Patreon you are.
Both sides.
We're staying in the middle.
The middle is where you can do the most good and help everyone.
Yeah, the middle is where you can do the most damage and we're doing it.
I'm in the middle.
We're coming out.
I'm not where I thought that was going.
Oh, I knew where it was going because I saw some other words.
Usually these jokes about September 11th are funny.
Uh-huh.
Yeah, yeah, I know.
When we do it, it's funny.
When he does it, it's in port-gaze.
Yeah.
Fucked up.
He shouldn't do that.
But those are the facts.
I think it's a lot of stuff about Freddy's.
I don't think a lot of those facts are in the restaurant.
No, I didn't see anything about Charlie Kirk in there.
Yeah.
I think all of the other people eating in the restaurant had some strong opinions about the Charlie Kirk.
And all the neighborhoods we drove through, I think, had a strong opinion about a lot of things.
Yeah.
We went and...
By the way, the other thing I was going to read before we started.
Frederick Freddie Simon, the namesake and co-founder of Freddy's Frozen Custer.
Stakeberger passed away in October 2020 to age 95.
But his sons, Bill and Randy Simon, who also co-founded it with Scott Redler, so many co-founders, are still involved.
Though Bill passed in 2016.
Oh, really?
The one son died four years before him.
Wow!
Oh.
Huh?
That's crazy.
you're like 91 years old
I bet the two founders left
then were the one son
and then the other guy
I think probably yeah
that's fucking nuts
Jesus
that's what I'm saying
they're waiting for
they're waiting for this
like Prince Charles died before the queen
Yeah
Come on dad
That's crazy
And like again
normally you'd be like
Oh man he died before his father
I wonder what happened
Probably old age
Yeah
Yes
I mean
He could have been 70
That's crazy
Dad
I don't feel so good
How are you still alive
I'm just a regular guy.
Just the regular guy sucking your juice out.
Well, I mean, you got to think about it.
If Freddie was 19 during World War II,
when he probably had kids when he was 20.
Or before or before he left.
It was either just before or just after.
I bet he probably banged away before going to war.
I bet he had kids somewhere in that range of 18 or 19 to 21.
I bet that's where the kids are.
So the kids are probably 70 when they die,
so their dad is 90.
the kids are 70 when they die.
The fact that your father's so old,
you're still the kid at 70's insane.
He was 61.
The kid was 61 when he died.
A little younger.
Wow.
And that's a little young,
but still not crazy.
And he could have been the youngest.
Yeah, he might have been.
That's wild.
I can't believe he died in 61 and you live in 95.
That's crazy to live 34 years longer than your child.
And have your child die when they're 60.
Wild.
Okay, so Freddie's first restaurant opened in 2002.
Uh-huh.
So he's already pretty old.
He's already old.
Yeah.
Starting in this restaurant.
Yeah.
Something to do.
See, that's funny because all the old pictures
then had nothing to do with the restaurant.
No.
Usually that's just old pictures.
Right.
I thought the restaurant was old.
Same.
No.
That's where I'm like, wait, it was like 50 years before you open the second restaurant.
No.
Who gives a shit about what you did 50 years before you opened the restaurant?
Because it's not an old restaurant.
But I'm saying that's every restaurant.
Every time they have old black and white photos, it's like, yeah.
It's like,
There's the drive-in.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
He was 80 when he opened it.
They have almost 500 locations.
That explains how his children were co-founder.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah, they had to quit their other actual jobs to start.
They were retiring.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They were like, oh, Dad, you want to start a business?
Yeah, they were really like in their 40s or 50s going like, I don't know, you want to start a burger place?
It's just for those.
It's never too late.
It's never too late.
Shit about when he may have eaten a steak burger.
Right?
And a hundred years later.
He decided to open a restaurant.
Are you going to talk about when he went to California?
Inspired by maybe having a burger in California.
In 1936.
One time.
The year my grandma was born.
Yeah.
And then he probably called it a hamburger sandwich.
And then he had a great, it was a nickel.
And it was incredible to him.
A nickel.
Yeah.
He stole the idea from the McDonald's brothers.
Yeah.
And do you think that's where the idea for the smash burger taco came from too?
Because whose fucking idea was that?
Well, I don't know.
Two of them are dead.
So I don't think it came from them.
Let me tell you.
Sounds like a Scott.
Radler.
Yeah, this is a Scott Radler join.
This is a Radler idea.
I could sniff out a Radler.
Judging by the looks of it,
had such white people taco night energy.
I wouldn't put it past.
It is a flour tortilla.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, actually, hey, Jordan,
do you want to tell us about this thing?
I guess I could, yeah.
Here's some more information on the food.
This is a mashup inspired by the viral social media sensation.
What?
Freddy's smashed burger taco is made with a grilled flower tortilla.
Stuff with Fred's.
Ready signature steak burger patty, American cheese, and top with lettuce and jalapenia fry sauce.
That tastes it different than the sauce we put on it.
Yeah, fucking get them.
That was some chirping, Nick.
It is.
Good chirp, though.
The thing we sort of landed on while eating it was like, why did you do this?
Why take bun away?
Why?
No one was going, dude, the bun on this.
Are you not familiar with the viral social media sensation?
What is that about?
What is that about?
Put burger in taco.
I don't understand what?
Too fast.
He said it and he agreed with it.
That's the crazy.
I did agree.
I agree.
Because I couldn't.
Because eating a hamburger is taking some time or whatever.
I was like, I don't understand.
That when you're hungry, you eat at the same rate.
That taco can be gone so because it's folded over, that taco is gone so fucking fast.
You're eating it twice as fast.
It's less realistic.
You're eating it twice as fast.
That's right.
Faster.
I imagine if you put the burger in half and stack it on top of it, you'd
that burger twice. But if it's less real estate, that means you're combining them so it would be like
more food per bite so you would take longer to chew it. No, no. No, no. Because, because, because,
because you're not chewing, no bun. Because, because, and I don't want to agree with them anymore.
And it sucks. Yeah, you keep doing it. You guys are on the same side. It's because no bun. The,
the, the, the, doing the flour tortilla is crazy. It was, I thought the flour tortilla was going to be
like kind of warm, but like soft. It was toasted and crispy and very, and very, very, you know,
Very weird.
Very red drip.
It dripped like creased.
Yeah, I did.
That's what reminded me of like.
What was the red?
Was it just like,
I think it's,
I think it's,
I think it's the grease and fry sauce.
I mean, I mean, I cut the grease part.
I'm asking about the red part.
I think it's the,
I think it's the fry sauce.
Oh, is it?
Was there that much on there?
I don't think so,
but there's probably some.
Unlike the first bite, I got some.
And I was like,
oh, there's something with some kick on it.
Yeah.
And then.
But then Nick invited you to add more.
Right. Right.
I didn't feel like I was tasting it
till we were putting it on.
Mm-hmm.
But, I mean, I guess it was some on there.
But yeah, it was just red, red drip.
But I don't know.
They were about $3.50 each.
That's a...
For the burger taco.
Why even...
Well, you're not paying for the button.
I mean, it's not bad.
You're saving on bread money.
I agree with you.
Yeah.
I just kind of saving on bread money.
I will say...
It could be $6.
Four of those tacos.
Four drinks.
A large onion ring.
$300.
A large curd.
And a...
And a...
And the...
And the regular size concrete, all in all, was $43.
Whoa, that's the cheapest thing we've had in a while.
I think that is the cheapest thing we've had in a while.
But also, you know, wasn't that much food.
Nope.
Like the taco.
I feel like when they say too, like, I ate it so fast.
It's like I feel like it was less there.
I think it was less the bun.
I just felt like there would be more meat and food on a burger.
Yeah.
The taco can hold less.
Oh, the biggest complaint for people.
I think the fact that that's why it's $3.50.
If it held the same amount, it would not be $3.50.
Right.
There's no fucking way.
There's no fucking way.
The biggest complaint from people on Yelp
who had never been to Freddy's before going to Freddy's.
It's not segregated.
Jesus.
Jordan thought that was crazy.
Why is this?
Hey, why is this hamburger so flat?
Oh, no.
Wait, what?
That is what they ask.
You mean like the meat itself?
Yeah.
It's a smash burger.
Are they stupid?
With a steak paddy.
Yeah, they're leaving one.
are Yelp reviews. Yeah, they're dumb as fuck.
They're leaving Yelp reviews, period.
Yeah, you're dumb as fuck if you leave anything.
I'm sorry.
So a lot of them, and I don't think I took many of these, but it was people complaining
that like, and another thing, this burger's too flat, hardly any meat.
And it's like, oh, I think it's just what it is.
It's just kind of spread out.
Yeah.
And that's what it is.
That's how it works.
It's good.
Yeah, I mean, I tell you generally, you know, how much is on there.
Right?
as far as like if it's a quarter pound.
Right.
You know, whatever.
All right, that's kind of going on the ball.
Are you stupid?
That's a good answer to the question.
Hey, are you stupid?
All right, that's a good one.
He's saying it because Jordan said it to him
and now it's a phrase that's like buried into.
Yeah, but it's really funny.
It's really funny hearing him say it.
It's really funny hearing him say it,
but when like sometimes it makes sense
and it's valid, sometimes it's real extreme.
I like that it sounds like a loop it.
It sounds like a legitimate thought.
How could they think that?
Are they stupid?
Is that a possibility?
Oh, man.
Of all the stuff that we got,
and we'll talk about like the actual talking thing
when we get to a, the cheese curds
were fucking good.
They were good.
They were big.
They were huge.
My only complaint with those ones
is that they were like a little too salty
and it really inhibited like,
oh, interesting.
More eating of them.
Huh.
I see.
Otherwise I would have like,
I would have housed them a little bit more.
They were like a really good size.
They were much bigger than what you get at like Culvers.
And we got them fresh.
Like we ate it there.
Oh, they were red-hop.
So at least it was like,
that wasn't,
the cheese didn't get cold for eating them.
And then they just,
it's like mozzarella sticks.
They suck once the cheese gets cold.
We also got the onion rings that you guys were talking about.
That's like the best style of onion ring that you can get.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It wasn't the weird ones from both of the wild wings where they
chocked them up and then fried them.
Insane.
Yeah, they suck.
You could tell like they weren't like,
they were actually like made there because like there were like imperfections and like were
perfect circles yeah exactly and then you were also saying they weren't like diner style where they're so
fucking big did you get order onion rings you get three yeah and they're this big and they're so
fucking gritting right yeah yeah and then you bite it and the whole onion comes out yeah
yeah they hate that shit did you want whole onion yeah i mean i'm not knocking a whole onion but
only if i order it yeah right if i order whole onion let me just chomp away at it yeah but
they were really good the sides were fucking kill
Like that is a place where if you go back, that is a like, get a concrete and just like probably fries and curds and onions.
It just get like the little things.
It was nice for a change that we actually eat all the food.
Yeah.
Like that was like no leftovers.
Yeah.
We just got like taco in two sides.
It was really good.
But, oh Jordan, I forgot this press material.
I'm sorry.
Go ahead.
It's okay.
Did you forget?
Here's what they say.
It says Freddie's new smash burger taco takes everything our guest love about our signature steak burger and reimagines it into a.
Cravable and perfectly snack-sized option for your midday cravings.
That's why it's 3.50.
A premium quality.
That's why you hate it faster.
Thin pressed patty with deliciously crispy edges.
Melted American cheese, lettuce, and zesty jalapeno fry sauce, all wrapped in a warm tortilla.
Said Rick Petralia, director of menu, strategy, and innovation.
For guests who want the perfect dessert to enjoy during the winter season, our hot chocolate
Frost is incredibly reminiscent of having a cup of hot chocolate.
It's not the same thing.
It just reminds you of it.
The Gerdelli hot cocoa adds a premium and decadent taste to our creamy vanilla
frozen custard and pairs seamlessly with the rich marshmallow cream.
Let's go back.
Let's go back.
That reminds me too of him who went on in this.
Of course.
We walked in.
We get whatever looking at it.
I'm like, oh, the...
I saw the custards.
Yeah.
And I was like, all right, those actually look pretty good.
This seems like a good custard place.
The only downside was like this.
It was cold today.
So it was like, do you really want customers?
Right.
And nobody wanted anybody.
But I was like, Nick, he's like, I'm good.
I'm good.
I'm good.
I was like, well, I want one.
I want one.
I want to try it.
Because I love me some reasons and I got it.
Then this guy wouldn't put it down.
Now he's screaming, let's go back.
Well, we don't know.
Also, I'm still hungry.
So why the fuck didn't you want one when I said,
get one?
You awakened me.
Absolutely not.
I awakened him.
Then he had it, ate it.
Now he's screaming, let's go back.
We didn't know.
I pointed at them and said,
possibly, no.
He didn't know about the hot cocoa one.
This is different.
He didn't know about hot cocoa.
I saw that.
I didn't know about hot cocoa.
That also reminds you, he keeps saying,
he keeps saying, I'm hungry.
You keep saying it.
First of all, again, too fast.
It's because it's snack size.
That's why it was smaller.
It was smaller.
That's fine.
That's not what we're talking about.
We're talking about you can't compare it to the burger.
It's advertised as a snack.
It's less food than the burger.
It's not the goddamn bun.
It's not, well, because the bun.
The bun, we ate too fast.
Same size.
That went out the bun too fast.
Same food too fast.
Paddy said say food too fast, okay?
That's what I'm saying.
He's still going.
The other thing, I can't remember what you were saying.
We were done eating.
We were about to leave.
We were like, and I don't remember exactly what you said, but you were like, oh, you know, you know what I forgot or something like that?
And he goes, you're hungry.
Yeah.
I was like, motherfucker, we just ate.
You're hungry.
I don't remember what you were going to say when you just cut you off to tell you you're hungry.
Did you know?
Were you aware?
What are you supposed to do with that?
Get more.
Get in the car and drive, baby.
Let him hoon her in the back seat.
Make an eight ball.
Oh, God damn.
You should have asked this girl out.
You're hungry.
You're hungry.
What?
I wasn't listening.
Oh, man.
I stopped listening.
Oh, man.
Well, A.C.'s, I wasn't listening.
Yeah, for sure.
Absolutely.
Nick, I elected to stop listening.
Yeah, I stopped listening.
I heard.
heard what I needed to hear, I'm done.
I'm ignoring.
Well, we have our review of Freddy's,
but we need to hear from you in a second we call you review.
First one, very, very short.
This is a very short one.
You do the first two?
Yeah, go for it.
I'll do them, okay, I'll do the first two.
Go for it.
Okay, this is swag R.
Swag with two Gs.
Swagg.
Swagriz.
Sad swag.
Too many guys just made the setting slash vibe off.
What's up?
Can't a girl take my order?
Not in a weird way.
O-N-G.
I think that means on God.
Probably.
Too many guys just made the setting slash vibe off.
What's up?
Can't a girl take my order?
Not in a weird way.
Not in a weird way.
I just want a girl to take my order.
In the normal way.
O-N-G.
I can't believe Swag-R would say something like that.
Showing up at the Fridays of being like, too many guys here.
Yeah.
Also.
The two in too many is T-O.
Yeah, to many guys.
So it's, too many guys.
Like he's addressing them.
Just made the setting slash vibe off.
The vibe is off. Can't a girl take my order?
It's not a weird way.
No.
Not being weird.
What?
One star.
One star.
One star.
One star too many guys.
There was a hamburger restaurant, not a fucking hot dog restaurant.
A lady took our order.
She did. She was very nice.
Yeah.
She gave Nick the heads up about the song.
She was locked in.
All right.
I'm doing the second one.
John M.
Well, dot, dot, dot, dot.
Sadly, we say farewell to Freddy's today.
Oh, no.
What happened?
Oh, he died.
Although the burger was amazing.
Uh-oh.
Dot, dot, dot.
Unlike me, this burger has lost some weight.
Dot, dot, dot, dot.
Wow.
Dot, dot, dot.
As my order number was called out, I jumped up to go grab my order.
And yet I just stared at the tray, capitalized.
and walked back to the table.
We both noticed, dot, dot, dot, dot.
They just look different, comma, smaller, dot, dot, dot.
I will let the photos speak for itself.
No boy.
We rarely eat fast food, but this was our go-to burger fast food joint.
Exclamation, exclamation, dot, dot, dot.
I have eaten there enough to see the difference.
Dot, dot, dot, dot.
Was eating there long before I started on Yelp.
Dot, dot, dot, farewell, good friend.
Oh, capitalized for some reason.
The photo that he posted is a hamburger from,
2016, which he had a photo of, and then a hamburger from like
2022 or 23, I think we heard of this review.
Not really.
It was just, it's the hamburger.
He's just thinking that they look smaller.
Unlike him.
Maybe they're smaller now. They're smaller.
Unlike John's weight.
I'm fat.
Can you give me fat food?
I mean, that's one star. The burger was amazing.
Amazing.
One star. One star. I love the food.
I,
Love the hamburger.
How many dot dot, dots are there?
Unfortunately,
why did people type this way.
We did not like the hamburger.
We rarely go out.
Oh, yeah, we rarely get fast food.
First of all, fuck you, you liar.
Second of all, it's not even fast food, idiot.
It's fast casual.
It's casual.
Yeah.
It's very casual.
Fucking moron.
It was.
Get them.
He deserves it.
I love the reviews that say,
although the burger was amazing.
It was small.
That's all, that's the only complaint.
He still liked it.
He went on to say in too many words
that it was smaller than before.
Good. Farewell, good friend.
13.13 dot, dot, dot.
Elypses.
There's no actual punctuation.
It's just that.
Yeah.
There's a couple commas.
An exclamation points.
How are you actually supposed to read that as intended?
You know?
I think it's just supposed to be periods.
It's small.
Well,
sadly, we say farewell to,
Freddy's today.
Although the burger was amazing, unlike me, this burger has lost some weight.
Wow.
That is exactly.
That's very good.
That's absolutely what he's making very strong points.
He doesn't know what dot, dot, dot means.
No.
Yeah.
No.
But he is using it.
That's how you do it.
I think maybe.
But that's also why we don't read it like that.
I think maybe he's so old.
He's, he's sending a telegram.
boomer shit.
Dude, my mother does that.
Stop.
Yeah, my mother does that.
My mother was amazing.
Stop.
My mother will do dot dot dot for no reason.
Like that's at the end of a sentence.
Yeah.
Right.
And it makes the end of a sentence is like,
ominous.
Like I do a lot of time where I'm like,
I don't know.
We should ask Nick.
Yeah.
Hey, we should ask Nick.
Period.
My mother does that all the time.
He's like, hey, how are you?
Dot, dot, dot.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I like the way my dad text.
Because I'm going to kill you.
The way my dad text is that he actually uses
no punctuation.
It's hard to know if it's a question or like a statement.
Or like it'll post a picture and then say my sister's at like Disney World or something.
You at Disney.
No, that's not a picture of me.
Yeah, yeah.
Are you at Disney?
You at Disney?
You at Disney.
You at Disney.
Me?
Me and Disney?
Well, that's the first two.
Jordan, you want hit us for the last one?
James F, James Freddie himself.
We can almost hope it's as good as the other ones.
Okay, I just saw this word.
Yeah, yeah, it's good.
No worry, he's good.
All right, here you go.
I think I got one of these Gen Xers.
Freddy's calling this a steak burger.
It's the biggest bait and switch in fast food history.
You're expecting flavorful, juicy, perfect sear.
And I'd assume thickness?
Who's expecting that?
Knowing it's a burger chain, you obvs.
No, it's going to be cooked to your design.
desired doneness.
Oves!
Here's what I think
really happens.
So in between
Marvel movies,
the Hulk sits in the back
and takes this
so-called steak
and screams,
Hulk smash!
And beats the patty
for 24 hours.
Yes, I'm guessing
that long on each paddy.
After that,
it's ran through
an 80s dot matrix printer,
tiny holes form,
and then some
teenager cooks
said,
3 millimeter meat disc for 10 minutes longer than he should
because he's just came back from a vape break.
It's then assembled and handed out the drive-through window
where your experience regret within 30 feet of the exit,
avoid all Freddy's.
Restaurants and men.
Too many guys.
Too many guys. Too many guys.
Too many guys.
On God.
That was nuts.
What the fuck? What a fucking moron?
Funniest person he knows.
Oh, absolutely.
I'm kind of like the personality higher at the office.
So, in between Marvel movies.
He's not filming Marvel movies.
Right. He's not real.
Also, if you want to get into the specifics of it, I think if Hulk smashed the burger, there'd be nothing left.
There'd be a lot of property damage.
Yeah.
He's quite powerful.
It was almost stronger than Thanos before.
the gym.
Yeah, before he got the gyms.
So this guy thinks that a steak burger...
He thinks, oh my God, that's just a steak.
A flavorful, juicy, perfect sear?
Are you fucking stupid?
He's expecting a fillet on his...
He thinks it's a steak.
Yeah.
Because when he's describing it also, he says Hulk smash and beats the patty, but it is,
he takes the so-called steak.
He doesn't think it's ground beef.
he thinks it's an actual just like rib-eye.
He's taking New York strip.
Yeah.
And then Hulk smashes it for 24 hours.
I mean, that's all long it takes.
What the fuck?
Vinny's closes on Friday.
Get your steaks in.
Oh, big ups.
We got to go.
That is fucking crazy.
Tomorrow.
That is crazy.
He is still talking to himself over there.
We got to go.
You get talking about tomorrow.
Tomorrow.
I'm currently doing the rest of the episode.
He's making plans.
We go review Vince Young's steakhouse and you can't try this.
It's gone.
We'll try the new place that opens up.
See if it's just as good as Vince Young's.
So I don't think Hulk does that.
You fall in apart?
Nice.
It's been chewed on, I think.
But that was Nick.
Those are your reviews.
He thought it was a steak burger.
Get some fries sauce to it.
We have out of you of Freddy's smash burger taco.
In a section we call Our Review.
That's right.
Our review.
I got to say, the taco bit was like the least interesting part we had.
Yeah.
You know, we've been kind of hinting at that throughout the episode.
Their sides are very good.
The custard was very good.
I think on a burger, that steak smash burger is probably pretty good.
Yeah, it was fine.
It really just tasted like a burger.
Yeah, it was just why.
It was just eating it going why.
The taco didn't really change anything about it.
I kind of just wished it was a burger.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But like it's hard to knock it too hard because my only.
It did taste back.
My only thought to consider it's faster.
To make it like sensible is like,
it wasn't slowing me down enough.
I heat my food to fight.
Yeah.
I think it.
Otherwise it's not fun.
I think you could look at it as like maybe they did taco so you could get like a tiny
burger, but they make small burgers, you know?
Yeah.
like a What a Burger Jr.?
Yeah.
It's like, hey, we'll just throw it on a taco.
Just make small burgers.
Then it's $3.50 and it's a snack, but you don't require a taco for that.
You just do small burger.
So I wouldn't say this is more like on the go or anything.
No, it's not.
It's like way too greasy.
You have to remain stationary.
That's absolutely not true.
Yeah.
If anything, a burger with the exact same ingredients
were probably more on the go because I assume the bun would absorb it a little bit more.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. Taco just went, it's just a shoot that just pours it out.
It is a thing.
where you could get a few of them
and it'd probably be like a nice little meal
or whatever if you're looking for something
that goes with the sides that do really well.
But as one, too fast.
Too fast.
He's doing something else.
He's working, probably.
He's making a reservation.
I'm comparing calorie count to see if that's the difference.
I see.
He's got to do the science wise.
So I was right.
He was working.
I'm working.
He's doing science, bitch.
I backed you up.
It's crazy.
It's odd you're doing it now.
Wait, okay, here we got.
It's 360 calories.
Okay.
and an original
Hold on, where is it, let's see
no, there we go, single steak burger
is 510 calories.
So it is better
calorie count wise.
Well yeah, there's less fucking food.
There's less stuff on it.
Like the paddies is the same, but everything else is less.
Right, but the paddies is the part
where most of the calories come in.
Was there not cheese?
I think there was.
There was.
There was very little.
Also, I think it was probably the bun
is where most of the calories come in.
Yeah, well, that's carbs.
Oh, he's right.
Carbs are not calories.
There's probably some calories, but you're right.
You know that scene in Scott Pilgrim where he goes,
oh, I love bread, I could eat it all the time.
And then, and then Remote Floury goes.
God did we get two each.
Yeah, but if you eat bread all the time,
then it'll get carved.
And then you go, bread makes you carved?
Uh-huh, uh-huh.
Famous line.
Famous line.
Yeah, and look how tiny Chris Evans was back then.
Now that he does carbs.
That's actually hilarious.
It's pretty good.
I'm hit with a 70.
70.
It was pretty good.
Yeah.
I've never been there.
I would prefer it in bun form.
I would like to try it in bun form
74. 74. I liked it.
And the two of them just immediately started going
too fast. It was very strange.
The way they were agreeing, it was like... And agreeing on something
so nonsensical.
Eric was like too fast. Finally somebody said it.
And it wasn't even, it's not enough food.
It was, you eat it too fast.
72 is the average score.
72. I don't, I don't feel like we were rushed.
I don't get any more pleasure.
Say it was the exact same amount of food.
I wouldn't go, well, I wish this took longer.
I don't really understand that argument.
That's what you think of when you're working on the clock
and you take a lunch break.
I wish this took longer.
I want to drag this out.
I felt, I felt like it was fine.
I felt like I wouldn't enjoy it if it just took longer,
but it was the same exact flavor and taste.
I don't.
I could have enjoyed it more.
Made sense.
Him agreeing crazy.
That was nuts.
really unfortunate that I do agree
with him and it really sucks.
You agree?
You're welcome to being right
as a feel on the other side.
Feels fucking bad.
Feels bad on this side.
Which is why we are not right.
We are all the other.
That's right.
We're a true centerous podcast, guys.
That's what we're all about.
Not con.
Before we get into all of the
before we get into all of the housekeeping
and everything, retro reads.
Oh, that was fun.
That came out.
I watched so the...
I had a good time watching.
By the time this is out, our first two episodes are out.
We're gonna record some more or whatever.
Don't know what I said, whatever.
We're gonna watch more either.
I was about to call you out on it.
I was about to fucking hammer you for it.
You probably saw a glint in my eye for a second.
I felt it.
I just came at you.
I felt it.
Important to think about and consider.
Wasn't sure if that was a sluror or not.
We ordered, we ordered a...
Whatever.
We ordered a, like a clamp arm thing for the, for the phone so that we...
One we have now,
you barely look at it and it fucking chips.
I didn't see any too many people complaining about that.
No, you definitely complained the most about it.
Kind of bother me.
In the episode.
Yeah, you are you and you're number two,
counting, getting seasick.
Yep.
So we'll see if that comes in time.
There was one comment that really like made me laugh
from like, oh yeah, they got a good point
because I'm just so used to this.
They were like, I like when Michael showed off dark jack,
he got up to show the camera instead of the one over the shoulder.
I was like, yeah, I don't know why I didn't think of that.
I did not cross my mind at all to just go.
Got off the wrong girl away from the microphone.
away from the microphone and just went, see?
Yeah.
No one questioned it when I did it.
I totally did not think about it.
I'm not at all.
I'm just so used to doing that.
That's what the camera is.
I probably, I think subconsciously,
I didn't want to bump it.
I don't want to up the counter.
So,
retro reeds is a YouTube
exclusive show because you have to see the video
we were going through this magazine
and like the visual. So it won't be on the RSS feed or whatever.
No point.
No.
Yeah, you're really, you're really fucking stupid.
If like, look, there's the video and you choose to walk out of the room
Or you're listening to it and going, oh, oh, I do need to look at this and you need to walk back
Just as an audio
It just doesn't, it just doesn't drive
It would be dumb as shit for us to put out
Wow, look at this, look, look, look, look
Wow, look how funny this is, welcome to the fandom
What are they looking at it?
So we want to do some
Laura Croft
I think you know Sophie Turner is playing Lara Croft
I didn't know that
Welcome to the fandom
It's like an Amazon series
She's doing the classic look too with the circle sunglasses and everything.
Nobody's happy.
Yeah, man, DEI fucking strikes again.
How's doing they hire a woman?
Yeah.
How come Idris Elba?
He's not James Bond, now what?
So I want to do some of these for Patreon.
Hungry?
But I don't want to do just like our regular magazine.
So we got to figure out what we can do for the show for Patreon.
If you have suggestions, let us know.
Yeah, we're really stupid.
We should have put it on Patreon
and then charge people more money for it.
I mean, we did one of them.
We did.
Right, but now we're doing the rest for free.
Yeah, like idiots.
Like stupid morons.
We fucked up and have given more value.
You're right.
To just subscribe to the free folk.
Fuck!
Yep.
So check it on YouTube.
We'll do a Playboy one.
We're not joking.
Yeah.
I mean, maybe we'll put it on Patreon.
Well, that we have to put it on Patreon.
Yeah.
Can't go on.
We'll get Gavin Swink.
That's way too much.
Gavin Swank has like, it's full on.
Maybe we'll finally order something from TLA game.
Oh, no.
Oh my God.
Can we get like Bonnie Blue?
Just on Patreon?
Yeah.
Good idea.
Well, you check that on on YouTube.
We'll have her sit in the cuck chair, but she ain't going to go out of a cuck chair.
But the wheel has to stay there.
Don't forget, you can send $10,000 checks for the cucket.
Yeah, you can.
You're allowed.
You're allowed to.
You're going to Patreon.
The p.obos later.
You're to Patreon.com.
100% eat or Patreon.com slash 100% eat slash gift
to give the gift of the Michael Jordan podcast
and everything else that we have on Patreon.
This was from a food poll that you did.
Wow, we did not even talk about that.
Oh yeah, I forgot about it.
We talked about it earlier when we went there
and I immediately forgot.
The general mood around this was
we're all going to vote for Freddy's because it's new
and it sounds nice.
Yeah.
Like they want to, they don't want to punish us anymore.
It wasn't a punishment.
I'll give them that.
It's also funny is we decided
to do this and it was like the day
before you put up the poll and I saw a comment
on like a previous video it's like, just don't do polls anymore
and I was like, oh you're in for it bitch!
I wasn't going to do it when we were pre-recording all through like
November and December. That just wasn't going to work.
We're going to try to be smarter. Yeah, yeah. I would
like to get a pull out monthly. It might not be four options. It might
only be two or three because man, there are some months where it is
like slim fucking dickens. As long as there's not an illusion of choice.
No, no, no, no. You will hear it. There's a solution to that. There's a solution
of that, but it's not really a solution because we know
how it'll go. You could always put like
two restaurants and then the third one just say
Nick picks, but everyone will
always vote for that and then he's going to
take us the C-C's. What if he's getting every once in a while?
And not just, yeah, just, you know, as a treat.
I also like he's saying that
as like not being Nick, you know,
like, oh, that's a good idea. It sounds like something
Nick would really like. Yeah, yeah, you
don't want that Nick guy
voting too much, but what about every once
and a while? What did you vote for, Nick?
This one? Okay.
On my account?
What did you vote for on the company account?
I didn't.
What did you hedge your bets with?
What was second place?
Yeah, somebody did vote in the company account.
It's got to be Gracie, right?
Because I voted on mine.
I don't have the company account as you will.
You can't get in.
Gracie is in somehow.
What did you vote for?
What was the second highest?
Let me see.
I think I voted for that one.
It was, your options were.
Did you want the KFC premium?
The Freddie Smashburger Taco, the Jack's Protein Bowl,
the Kentucky Fried Chicken
in cheesy,
and the Subway Protein Pocket.
Somebody voted for the Subway Protein Pocket.
And by the looks of it,
was the only vote it got.
The discussion I saw in the Discord was like,
no one's gonna vote for Subway, right?
We don't want to make him go to Subway.
Who would go to Subway and not get a sandwich?
Yeah, my dad.
We would get a pizza.
The mean guy might be there still.
Oh, I'm sure he is.
Man, let me see.
Cursing his life.
But if you want to vote in these polls and all this stuff,
you can join patreon.com slash 100% eat.

Bye-bye.
You're hungry.
