Welcome to Face Jam, the show where we try every new fast food creation to let you know if you need it.
Starting point is 00:00:35 You probably do. Thanks to HelloFresh for making this show possible. I'm your host, Michael Jones, alongside my co-host, Jordan Sweers. Jordan, how are ya? Spicy today. I'm all spiced up. Yeah, dude. You didn't really get the intro good But I did I heard it Yeah I mean as long as Eric pulled his window down And just kind of held his phone out the window
Starting point is 00:00:49 Or played it through his car or something But then I did hear it through Discord All broken and shitty So I fought I fought through it I feel like I need the intro less than you
Starting point is 00:00:58 Like The intro gives you the energy And then once you get going I go off of you So you know It's a domino effect but it's vital because it gets the show going.
Starting point is 00:01:09 The intro feeds me and then I baby bird everyone on the show. Yeah. I am small animal hungry and you give sustenance. I take what I need and then I share the rest. I am small animal hungry.
Starting point is 00:01:26 Yeah, dude. This is good. This is good. Today, we're reviewing the Golden Chick Cholua Chicken Sandwich and Cholua Chicken Tenders. Are you saying Cholua? Yeah. Could you try that again? Cholula.
Starting point is 00:01:40 Well, how do you say it? Cholula. Oh, Cholula. Oh, you're right. Cholula. Yeah, I skipped an L there. You're saying it like Kahlula. Yeah. You were saying it like it? Chalula. Oh, Chalula. Oh, you're right. Chalula. Yeah, I skipped an L there. You're saying it like Kahlua. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:47 You were saying it like it was Hawaiian. Yeah. Which would be cool, but there's pineapple in it. Which would be very Chalula. Dude, we should have put some Kahlua on this. What's Chalula? Nothing. I think you made it up.
Starting point is 00:02:00 Yeah. Fuck. Yeah. I should patent that. Yeah. Oh, I think it's just chalula but they put like pineapple in it and they put instead of like the l they put like an apostrophe it's like a hawaiian thing you put it in like a rum drink yes oh whoa so wait so hang on we didn't eat that
Starting point is 00:02:16 no we didn't eat chalula we also didn't have a rum drink well maybe oh yeah we definitely didn't have a rum drink that would have been great if we had a rum drink. This reminds me about how no one's... Hang on. Cholula. Okay, you got it. It's like how no one's parents can say Chipotle. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:38 That was like a weird thing for a minute. Michael, you holding up the plastic bottle like it was rum reminded me when I was... Of water. Well, no, that's what you think. When I was younger, my parents would get water bottles and then poke holes in the bottom and then fill them with rum and vodka
Starting point is 00:02:59 and then take them to concerts. But I didn't know that and they would put... My parents' names are Ron and Vicky. So they would put R and V on the top of the water bottles, which I thought was Ron and Vicky. And so I took a drink out of my mom's water bottle. And it was vodka and not water. And it was an unwelcome surprise when you think you are quenching your thirst.
Starting point is 00:03:20 And then it becomes vodka. Mom, what's wrong with this water? And that's how you ended up like you are? Yeah, and that's, and that's, and my mom says that's how I'm different. What do you, I'm, go back. They poked holes in the bottom? In the bottom.
Starting point is 00:03:34 Why did they poke holes? So you would turn the water bottle upside down because you can bring in like a sealed water bottle to like a concert. So you get the water bottle, you turn it upside down. Oh, so it had to be sealed. Well, it's still sealed.
Starting point is 00:03:44 It's closed. And then you poke a hole like in the bottom part. You drain all the water bottle, you turn it upside down. Well, it's still sealed. It's closed. And then you poke a hole in the bottom part. You drain all the water out, and then you fill it up with a funnel with vodka, rum, whatever, something clear. And then they would seal it. They would seal it with hot glue. That seems elaborate. Yeah, this is a lot of work. I come from a long line of rum runners and drunks, apparently.
Starting point is 00:04:05 You know how you can't bring in your own drinks into a concert or something? But they don't stop you from bringing in hot glue guns. They're like, hot glue? That's fine. Head on in. We found the loophole. Put it on in, baby. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:04:21 Oh, no. This is just my hot glue gun for when I do crafts halfway through the show. Oh, okay. go ahead in. Makes sense. I'm going to make some friendship bracelets. I want to watch. Listen, I'm here to watch Rascal Flatts and make friendship bracelets, and no one's going to stop me.
Starting point is 00:04:38 So Golden Chick, it's a chicken place. They make chicken. You eat the chicken. What is it? I ain't never heard of this place I've heard of it I don't think I've ever had it I'm not sure
Starting point is 00:04:50 I have never been Until today If I've had it It's been a like You know Hey there's a bunch of people And food is being ordered from a place It's got chicken
Starting point is 00:05:00 What do you want? And I would say a food I would say a chicken or something And then I eat it That's possible. Other than that, it's not something I've ever sought out. I confused it with another place that used to be at the Del Diamond, home of the Round Rock Express and sometimes Round Rock Chupacabras.
Starting point is 00:05:18 And so I thought I'd had it before, but that place is actually called Chicken Express. Oh, yeah. So that place is not even there anymore no so no i definitely haven't had golden chick before you can rule it out because we've got it today we'll yeah we'll learn more about golden chicken the fact section but the thing to keep in mind with golden chick is that it is located in what you would identify as a food swamp. You know, like a food desert is just like there's nothing around you. There's no fast food places.
Starting point is 00:05:50 You know, nothing is close. Everything is like a real drive to get, you know, it's like that. But I call them this is in a food swamp, which is, hey, look, here's Golden Chick. Yeah, but there's Sonic. There's McDonald's. There's Jack in the Box. There's In-N-Out. There's Burger King.
Starting point is 00:06:03 There's Taco Bell. They're like like it is just so it's like why would you ever eat there? why would you ever stop and go dude but I gotta have Golden Chick because you have 13 other options within a two block radius this is what we refer to on the show now
Starting point is 00:06:17 as the Fazoli's dilemma yes it is Fazoli's Gambit it is Fazoli's Gambit. It is Fazoli's Gambit. It's a bold move. How about there? We'll knock out the competition here. We're going to dominate this 500 square feet. But, sir, there's a Whataburger right next to it.
Starting point is 00:06:44 Yeah, but we serve italian food in the drive-thru don't underestimate the power of fazoles the experienced eaters know where to go oh man yep you guys have eaten at a lot of chicken places we've done a lot of chicken places on the show but we've like you know you eat it like a lot of chicken places what was your impression of golden Chick when you actually got it? Like it was really bagged and like there was, it was pretty packaged. I'm guessing, I'm guessing this is a, they don't do bone in chicken is my assumption. They might, but I'm not sure.
Starting point is 00:07:18 It seems a very like chicken tender chicken sandwich place. It's comparable to a Popeye's or a Zaxby's. Right. Not like a fried chicken place, like a Clucker's or something. Yeah, or a KFC. Nick is saying that they do do bone-in chicken, but- They do do? They do do.
Starting point is 00:07:36 Don't say do do. This is a food podcast, dude. Uh-oh. My appetite, yikes. But I think you're right with saying it's like, it's a Zaxby's, Zaxby's, Zaxby's? Zaxbel. Zaxbel.
Starting point is 00:07:52 Chalua. Chalua. Does Zaxbel have Chalua? Yeah. Zolik's campaign. Zaxbel is a character from Final Fantasy. Please. Oh, man. Oh, fuck. this campaign that spell is a character from final fantasy please oh man oh fuck uh but like why why does why does this place exist like you guys named a bunch of other chicken restaurants
Starting point is 00:08:15 yeah that are just like what a crowded space already don't and also also you you mentioned it being on airport and literally there's two blocks up from this spot is a popeyes yeah so just go there just go to a better place i couldn't order it's pretty it feels pretty behind the times um yeah i could order on they have a website um yes i could order online from some of their locations but not all of their locations so it was like well i want to order from the one closest to where we're going to record nah you gotta go about 20 minutes out tight fucking cool thank you so much internet so there you have it well you did it though yeah no we definitely did it and you know what they were they were cool like i went in their
Starting point is 00:09:05 dining rooms really closed and very locked so i had to wait in the drive-thru to get it uh but they they accommodated and snuck me out of the drive-thru they were doing sneaky little chicken moves it was pretty cool did you see any uh souls screaming around no i didn't i did see a car accident i was gonna save that but i did see a car accident. I was going to save that, but I did see a car accident as I was going there. I wonder now what the turnover rate, because we established listeners die.
Starting point is 00:09:33 They keep listening. Do you think people who don't listen die, and then the ghosts already listening go, you've got to listen to this show? Yeah, it's the From Beyond the Grave Face Jam Challenge. Tell your friends from Beyond the Grave. Yeah, yeah. Get a Ouija board. Uh-huh. Say, oh spirits,
Starting point is 00:09:50 I summon you. Have you listened to Face Jam, the food review podcast with Michael and Jordan? There's a lot to put in on a Ouija board. Yeah, but then you wait and then it moves to yes. Whoa. Yeah, because they're ghosts.
Starting point is 00:10:05 So, of course, they've heard it. It's a ghost podcast. Well, what would happen is we would do that, right? That's going to be our next live thing we do is we're going to do the Ouija board, and it's going to ask that question, and I'm just going to keep going. Are you moving it? I'm not moving it. I'm not moving it.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Do we? Guys, are you moving it? Okay, here's the thing. If you guys go about two-thirds of the way down on the first page, spit and silly, the van segment, I have changed to the ghost segment. Oh, I saw. But I want to discuss this now.
Starting point is 00:10:34 Let's move ghosts up. What you just pitched, Michael. What's that? What? What you just pitched about doing a Ouija board thing for Face Jam. Uh-huh. Should we go to a haunted house? Oh, yeah. With fast food? And do like...
Starting point is 00:10:47 Eat like... Eat like a chicken sandwich and then like summon the spirits and be like, have you heard Face Jam? We could get the spirit or the spirit of the chicken. Either way.
Starting point is 00:10:57 Yeah. I want something dead. Let's go to a haunted like golden chick. Oh, do you think that there are haunted fast food restaurants? Like an abandoned one? Like the one clearly a pizza hut? We're gonna have to offline this and loop in sales.
Starting point is 00:11:11 This is the next conversation. I know that we just missed Halloween for this, but also it could be February content. February. Whoa! There you go. Eric's screaming. Ghosts are year-round.
Starting point is 00:11:28 Year-round. Year-round. All right, this is good. This is great! I'm so excited! I wasn't on board. I was honestly worried about the ghosts. I didn't know how I felt about it.
Starting point is 00:11:41 Don't worry. But like, but now... Be happy. Be happy. Yeah, you worry no more. I think that this is gonna be great. I think we're gonna do a seance. I think we're gonna eat maybe
Starting point is 00:11:53 like a Boston Market meal. Summon the great spirits from beyond. I wanna mention, I brought up the Golden Chick social media account on Twitter. Just because you were mentioning they seem like they're behind the times a little bit. Yeah. I get the sense that they're a really small operation.
Starting point is 00:12:13 They have 1,458 followers on Twitter. Uh-huh. Their bio reads, official Golden Chick Twitter account, home of the original, and still best, winky emoji, golden tend tenders they're not even verified but here's my favorite here's my favorite uh interaction uh it says here there's just a tweet from a couple weeks ago that says it's the no pickles on the sandwich for me eyes emoji there's six likes and one reply and it's from a guy who just said, huh? Okay.
Starting point is 00:12:57 All right, that's good. That was such a long walk to get there, but boy, know people people see the face jam social team and think like you know it's easy yep you gotta you gotta get in there you gotta get in the weeds you know i gotta say golden they're they're out here trying but when when the only reply you get is an old guy going huh it's it's a tough road i was going to include exactly what you were talking about in the fact section today, but I went, yeah, I don't know if I want to like call out their social media. They're trying because they are posting like every day. They have 1400 followers and they are posting every single day and not like bull.
Starting point is 00:13:42 You got to get out there. single day. And not like bull... You gotta get out there. It's like relevant meme content, but it's all for Golden Chick, a place with 110 locations in the central southern United States. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:13:57 I don't know. They're just trying to get people fed, dude. They're doing it. Boy. Huh? Well, we should be... Let's learn. Let's learn a little bit about golden chick
Starting point is 00:14:05 diving into the facts here we go opened in 1967 the first golden chick restaurant was located in san marcos texas which is just about an hour south of us it's true isn't that crazy us us the united states or us collectively No, us specifically in Austin. In between here and San Antonio, right? Yeah. Probably a little closer to San Antonio. It's about where you pull over to do a little stretch. I think San Antonio is about 90 minutes.
Starting point is 00:14:33 Yeah, just about. Yeah. And then you can protect the Alamo from those people. I'm not sure who they are, but my dad keeps telling me, so we'll figure it out one day. Well, is anyone still trying to take the alamo yeah i'm not sure i mean it seems like if you turn on the news seems like they might be but i just don't know who i've seen the news and i don't quite understand what's happening there's some people saying this and that and people say yay and then people go no i win and
Starting point is 00:15:02 i don't really understand it but i I've seen people, it's weird. There's a guy saying he won, but he didn't win. But then people like the guy who said he win that didn't win. And they say, hey, we'll turn this into another Alamo. I've seen that. And then I think, but they lost. They lost. Right, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:23 It's all very confusing. Yeah. Just try and take it try try and take it like you tried to take the alamo and then they did they did and did successfully very easily it's all very confusing stuff yeah and then a lot of times there's like graphics on the screen and and there's still voiceover going and i just lose it because i can't see the person talking. So I'm out at that point. I'm going, go back to the desk. I need an extreme close-up on the anchor as they read to me. I just want to see lips and teeth.
Starting point is 00:15:56 That's all I want to see. Okay? I don't need the whole head. I need to know where the mouth is that's making the sounds. I want to see the tongue and how you're making the L, like, L sounds. When the guy does the weather, I can really follow along. But then when he turns his back to the camera and he's pointing. Where'd he go?
Starting point is 00:16:14 I don't know what, who, where's the voice coming from? You know what I call that? It could be somebody else. You know what I call that when the guy turns away from the camera and he's still talking? A jump scare. Oh, fuck. Because I didn't see it coming. All of a sudden, my pants are wet my brain is fried and i don't know what's happening but then he turns back around and i was right in the world it's all good and then you it was
Starting point is 00:16:35 it's like it's like when he turns back around you go oh it was just a cat yeah oh fuck it wasn't i like to point out the irony of the the, remember the Alamo, when so many people seem to forget exactly what happened at the Alamo and why we're supposed to remember it. I kept thinking they were talking about the movies. Yeah, the draft house. I was just like, are they national? They're not in every state. They got a couple here and there, but yeah, I mean, if we're going to make another Alamo,
Starting point is 00:17:03 yeah, that'd be fine with me. Let's get some more draft houses up in here. Yeah. Alright. That was good. We should move past the first fact. Although known for their chicken, Golden Chick has a wide variety of offerings, from dirty rice to fried okra and corn nuggets. They also
Starting point is 00:17:20 have something called hot yeast rolls, which look like biscuits but sound like a yeast infection. So that's what we had, right? That's what we ate. I took a bite of it, and I thought, this tastes weird. And I said, this tastes weird. And Nick went, tastes like alcohol.
Starting point is 00:17:38 And I was like, it tastes like beer. This tastes like a beer roll. And not particularly good. It was just kind of like, it was like someone had a roll and then they spilled beer on it. That's exactly what it tasted like. You know what I mean? Not like, ooh, the beer enriched flavor. It was just like, why does this taste like that?
Starting point is 00:17:55 Did you keep this in a fridge next to an open beer? Yes, I did. Well, it's all your least favorite ingredient of beer in bread form. I just wish when I was eating it, there was more foam. Yeah, it's true. I wish it was foamier. That's the only thing that would have made it better. Get a nice head on that hot yeast roll.
Starting point is 00:18:17 It tasted like a kolache, but had nothing in it. It's like, this is the worst part of a kolache. It was wacky. So they have that. You can buy that, I guess. They gave it to you free. I didn't even order that. That makes sense. It's like, this is the worst part of a kolache. It was wacky. So they have that. You can buy that, I guess. They gave it to you free. I didn't even order that. That makes sense.
Starting point is 00:18:28 That's why. They're just giving them away. First step with a kolache, I rip it open like a package. And I go, I'm not taking two wasteful bites. Give me the goddamn hot dog. Right? Yeah. You know?
Starting point is 00:18:42 That sucker's in there. You clip the edges. That's the crust yeah yeah uh okay in september of this year that is 2020 the year of our lord golden chick paired with fletcher's original corny dogs to sell corn dogs for a limited time that ended in late october and there's probably one guy in his car listening to this right now, pissed that we didn't eat corn dogs. You're stuck in Fort Worth traffic, Josh. Chill out. You really dialed in on that.
Starting point is 00:19:09 I really wanted to see. I want to see if it works. If there's one guy listening and he's on his way to work and his name is Josh and he goes, oh, what the fuck? That's what I'm hoping for. Damn, dude. I might have given it to you,
Starting point is 00:19:22 but going with Josh is pretty slim odds. That's A, you know? You should have gone with Connor. That's it. That's what I'm saying. I'm not shooting for- I feel like Connor would have been a higher percentage. Ooh, Connor's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:19:34 I feel like Mike would have been a better percentage because there's 40 billion. I was going to go with Mike, but then I went too specific to you. I think you would get confused. No, not if you said Mike. That's true. Only fools would confuse it. Only people who think they're friends with me would confuse it. Hey, what's up, Mike?
Starting point is 00:19:51 Oh, hey, Mike. Yeah, you said it, Mike. Yeah, wow. Hey, Mike, love the podcast. Oh, we're friends. Yeah, we must be. You called me Mike. Yeah, I've been listening to you for 10 years.
Starting point is 00:20:03 None of your friends call you that. Hey, Mike, what's up? Cool. Whoa, did you just come up with that? Wait, can I use that? Is that a nickname? What the darn heck? It's a Mike name.
Starting point is 00:20:18 Yep. Whoa! His name's Nick. Eric's all over the place. Golden Chick claims to have invented The Golden Tender A hand battered and deep fried chicken tenderloin In 1985
Starting point is 00:20:32 And that all the quote big guys Are copying them Which is a bold claim from a restaurant Most of our audience just found out existed Roughly 21 minutes ago When this episode started Close You gotta take- Close, close.
Starting point is 00:20:45 Yeah, right? You gotta take five minutes off the top because we started- No, it's gotta be very close. Yeah. I felt really- That was a really good guess. Hey, man, this is what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:20:55 If Josh and Fort Worth happens, I'm two for two. You're shooting a lot of shots. I don't wanna give him all the credit, though. It explains why he bumped up the ghost segment because he knew he had to kill time. No, I don't know what give him all the credit, though. It explains why he bumped up the ghost segment, because he knew he had to kill time. No, I don't know what you guys are talking about. I thought he was really excited about the ghost thing. He was excited about that 21-minute call.
Starting point is 00:21:14 No, I was excited about ghosts. Now it makes me wonder, like, you know, the sanctity of this episode, how much of it is, like, producer-influenced. Oh, he's just pulling strings, dude. He's pulling strings. It's like one of the things people liked about Great British Bake Off in the early seasons is that there was not a lot
Starting point is 00:21:31 of producer intervention and later seasons people are saying I think they're starting to mess with the formula here. Yeah but did you see that guy who made the Tom DeLonge cake? That was pretty ugly. Yeah. Well I thought it's I don't think anybody helped him with that. I started questioning what the producers were doing when they killed Mary Berry.
Starting point is 00:21:50 That's right. And I was just like, hang on. They, you know, they were, well, yeah, if you watch, she's not in the show anymore. They killed her off. And I was like- Yeah, they killed her off. Is this a narrative? It's fucking crazy.
Starting point is 00:22:00 Is this, did they just, she fell down? It was a big arc in like series three, I think. Oh, it was. I think it was way further than that. They started hinting at it. If you if you go back and write, you can see the writings on the wall. Right. You can see Paul becoming the villain.
Starting point is 00:22:18 There's a there's a certain glint in his eyes. His his like he starts tanning more and his hair gets whiter. Yeah. And he starts doling out fewer handshakes. You can't trust a guy named Paul Hollywood who's from England. That doesn't make any sense. It doesn't make any sense at all.
Starting point is 00:22:34 Hey, what's up? My name's Eric London and I'm from San Diego. Oh! And now, what you've all been waiting for. The final fact. Do-do-do-do-do-do. That was pretty cool. Millionaire thing. Okay.
Starting point is 00:22:50 And all the lights. Remember Millionaire? Anyway. Rest in peace, Regis. Oh, because he could be a fan. Oh! Regis! I think Nick just found out Regis Philbin died.
Starting point is 00:23:04 Oh, you didn't know. He went, oh. I forgot. Oh, no. Now you're reopening old wounds. Sorry. Stop. Golden Chick is owned by a conglomerate called Golden Tree Restaurants. Some of their sister restaurants include Heff's Burgers, Taco Plaza, Jalapeno Tree, J.C.'s Burger House, Texadelphia, and Fireside Pies.
Starting point is 00:23:32 I made up one of those restaurants, but which one? It's obviously J.C.'s Burger House. Couldn't tell you. Yeah. I mean. Texadelphia is real. I mean. Texas Delphi is real. I mean, jalapeno tree? That one's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:23:50 I'd eat there. I don't know, man. J.C.'s Burger House better be fake because I have a patent pending for that name. I think you might get a patent denied. That's a real one. Whoa. No. What's made up?
Starting point is 00:24:04 I made up Taco Plaza. Oh. Taco Plaza. Yeah. Because that sounds like more of a restaurant than jalapeno tree. It sure does, dude. And also, when you say Heff's Burgers, I just thought of Rocco's Modern Life.
Starting point is 00:24:20 Me too! That's exactly what I thought. Man. Look at us. Where are these places located? That's weird. Were your kids watching that show? You're a little older for that audience, right? I was like 10 when it came out, so you were... Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:24:33 31, 32. And those are just the facts. That's it. My uncle worked on that show on Rockers Modern Life. Rockers? Is that a different show? Yeah, Rockers Modern Life. Well, it's Rocco from Rocco's Modern Life, but it's kind of like he starts a band.
Starting point is 00:24:48 It's different. Rockers. Did he? He worked on that? That's cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What'd he do? The, I think, pre-visualization stuff.
Starting point is 00:24:57 I don't remember, but he just got done. He still works in... He worked on the fucking Spider-Man movie the enter the two realms what's yeah into the spider-verse the two realms is right it was a weird Lord of the Rings also that was the budget version like what about a multiverse

You guys said that I was just doing it for told you i was worried about the ghosts you guys said that i was just doing it for time we'll see i was worried about the ghosts but reading this i just it just makes me think you're afraid of ghosts i'm not afraid you know like ghost i'm worried like i'm worried they're gonna scare me that's how i read that you ever go to bed late at night and the bathroom door is open and you just go i don't remember opening the bathroom door is open and you just go, I don't remember opening the bathroom door. Did somebody else open the bathroom door? And then you go, well, what if there's someone in there?
Starting point is 00:26:50 What do I do? Do I turn on all the lights and be loud? Do I go and just close it? Anyway, I'm not afraid of ghosts. I just have a healthy respect for their space. For the unknown. Yes. I'll tell you, I do go to bed sometimes and the bathroom door is
Starting point is 00:27:06 open and I fly into a rage. I must have all doors closed. If I'm in my bed, my ex would do this all the time. I'm in bed like she's in the bathroom or whatever and I'm like, last one in, that's your job. You turn the lights off, you close all the doors. I'm in bed,
Starting point is 00:27:22 bedroom door is closed, bedroom light's on because I don't know what she's doing. She's in the bathroom. Fires out of the bathroom. Bathroom door's open. Gets in the bed. Light's still on. And I'll just go, what the hell's going on here? You've got your responsibility at that point. That's up to her. Close the door! Close the goddamn door and turn the light
Starting point is 00:27:38 off! And this is why, obviously, we're no longer dating. Ex. Yep. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Your ex-girlfriend. I get it. Ex. Yep. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Your ex-girlfriend. I get it. I get it. So how about them ghosts? Don't, don't cut out the silence, Nick.
Starting point is 00:27:57 Yeah, Nick, leave it in apparently. That is, that is comedy bronze. You just, you stretch it out a little bit. You let the audience think this is awkward. And then you say, that was awkward.
Starting point is 00:28:11 And they go, I was just thinking that. I could be on this show. Yeah. You won't ever be, but you could. Next thing you know, you're tweeting at Face Jam trying to make jokes. If you think I can do that, good. Go do it. I want you
Starting point is 00:28:30 to try, please. Please. It doesn't have to be here. Just not with us. But speaking of people who were on the show, be the golden chick. The van episode, the van episode came out. What did you guys think about that Fredo episode
Starting point is 00:28:45 uh I haven't watched it I lived it do you remember much from it yeah I remember um you
Starting point is 00:28:51 were flaunting your car yeah flaunting isn't the right word and then I remember I don't remember poorly covering up I don't know which one of you it was
Starting point is 00:29:00 I think it was Eric you thanked him for having us near the end yeah that was Eric which was confusing really nice I mean if you haven't watched I think it was Eric. You thanked him for having us near the end. Yeah, that was Eric. Which was confusing. It was really nice because it was our show. I mean, if you haven't watched it yet, it could have been Jordan. I'm just saying. I'm just saying it could have been. Could have been. And I also
Starting point is 00:29:13 remember, I think Jordan shorthanding Domino's to Eno's. Alfredo immediately dismissing it and then a minute later calling it Eno's. Those are the three things I remember. I was going to bring that up too because that was definitely
Starting point is 00:29:30 my favorite part. That was great. It was not even three minutes. It was so close. It went from that stupid to him calling it Enos. Jordan almost walking on eggshells asking if it was okay to call him Fredo.
Starting point is 00:29:47 It was okay. It was a lot of fun. Well, I remember that was one of maybe the first times I've interacted with Alfredo. So I wanted to introduce myself at the top. So I was like, hey, this is Jordan from Face Jam. Nice to meet you. Yeah, and he was like, cool, I can't see you. I'm looking at Eric and a bunch of fucking Mike arms and shit.
Starting point is 00:30:12 I can see your shoulder, but I see mostly the roof of this shitty van. Oh, speaking of the van, can we give an update on its health? Because apparently it's gone, right? Yeah, it is. It's going to the farm. Yeah, it's going upstate. Yeah, that's where vans go to get gone, right? Yeah, it is. It's going to the van doctor. Yeah, it's going upstate. Yeah, that's where vans go to get fixed, right? That's where they take them to get fixed
Starting point is 00:30:30 and then we get it back eventually. They're going to Cadillac Ranch. Yeah. That's when you call the vet for your horse and he goes, here's the treatment, and he gives you a gun. So the van did get taken to a repair shop. I was told that they had three repair shops lined up just in case any of them looked at it and went, I'm not touching that.
Starting point is 00:30:54 No. It's like dating game. Bachelor number two. Yeah. But yes, it is at the shop right now. Wow. So pretty soon, incredibly drivable van that we can take. That means we can come here.
Starting point is 00:31:11 We'll grab the van. We'll go pick up some food. We'll do some van apps. We'll hang out. Van apps. The AC probably works, right? There's no way. There's no way.
Starting point is 00:31:20 I don't seem to recall it working. Nick is shaking his head no, but I'd say the jury's still out. I would say he wouldn't know anyway. He had a monkey mask on. I'm sure he would know if it works. I definitely remember something kind of probably definitely catching on fire after we drove it around for a little bit. Oh, it smelled like burn.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Oh, yeah. Yeah, there was a burn smell. I think it was the brakes. I think it was the brakes or something. I hope they fixed that. It might have just been that tire locking up but you know who can say it was the beginning that could have been an early warning sign yeah hey i don't think it's supposed to do this yeah don't worry about it no fun fun fact about this van it is in fact an automatic transmission but uh you wouldn't know it by how you had to get it from park to drive by gently lifting off the brake and easing onto the gas like it were a clutch.
Starting point is 00:32:11 Yeah, they call that a hybrid, right? Yeah. It's like, well, it's automatic, but it drives like a manual. Uh-huh. Yeah. It's all the fun of clutch pedal without the stick shift. None of the benefit. Do you think that after they quote unquote fix the van, that maybe they could bolt that seat down?
Starting point is 00:32:32 Do you think that's maybe an option? Yeah. Well, here's what I think. I think we should totally redo the interior. Listen, we could. Here's what I would settle for. A vacuum. Because I was like, can we clean this?
Starting point is 00:32:46 And they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we'll clean it. And then someone came out with a sweet broom. Yeah. And I was like, oh. You guys are really hitting this like. It's clean now. In a kind of a general, you know. I thought we were going deep clean.
Starting point is 00:32:59 And you were like, we'll wipe the plaque off. Oh, are your teeth covered in bacteria? Here's a washcloth. Just scrape with your finger. You got to just grow the fingernail out. Yeah, duh. Idiot. Yeah, we'll bolt the seat down,
Starting point is 00:33:13 but then you got to think about how we're going to get the seat so we can spin it around so that way we can film in there. You didn't even think about that. See? Producer-minded. You got to figure it out. Spin it around? What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:33:23 Yeah, you know how it's like, you want the seat to face forward, like when it's driving forward, but then when we record, we face it backwards. It was facing backwards the whole time, though. Yeah, but if we bolt it down, we'd have to pivot it, wouldn't we? No, we wouldn't. Why? We were driving around with it facing
Starting point is 00:33:39 backwards! The bench is already not attached, so let's just get like those captain seats that can spin. Oh, captain seats. And put those in there. I'll be a captain. Yeah. Oh boy.
Starting point is 00:33:55 I'll be captains. All aboard. Can we have three captains and one first mate? Yeah. Mr. Monkey. And then the monkey has a little sailor's hat and he comes out and he goes Do you want to get a little corncob pipe? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:12 And he's got a parrot on his shoulder. That's a good idea. Dude, you know how in Pirates he has a monkey? He's his own monkey. Whoa. No, we get him a smaller monkey. No, we get him a small person or he can just use
Starting point is 00:34:26 the plush can't he just use the plush yeah but two monkeys that doesn't make sense but it's a man in a monkey costume also we need another man we need a plush of a man and then we go we name the man Nick
Starting point is 00:34:43 we're getting off track here this is all good we're getting off track And then we go, we named the man Nick. We're getting off track here. This is all good. This is all good. We're getting off track. I like having- It was spitting silly. It was good. And then we're on to what the hell did we eat?
Starting point is 00:34:54 Yep, Jordan, go ahead. Let's keep this- What the hell did we eat? Let's keep this under 85 minutes. That's what my goal is. Oh my God. We'll do a tight 85. We're killing it.
Starting point is 00:35:03 Let's go, Jordan. All right, so the golden chick cholula, not cholua. Well, say it however you want. It's up into interpretation. It says, our juicy all-white meat chicken breast fried and dunked in our signature buttery cholula sauce blend served with five pickles on one of our famous extra large XL rolls. Interesting. Five pickles, huh? They're big on that five pickles thing one of our famous extra large XL rolls. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:35:27 Five pickles, huh? They're big on that five pickles thing. It's on the box. It is on the box. And yet it's more than five pickles. I got seven or eight pickles. I stopped counting. I counted to six and then saw more and just went, well, that's not five at all.
Starting point is 00:35:41 At that point, why bother? Right. They lied. I went, oh, you got me, guys. Why is it in the official description that it's five specific pickles? I think somebody needs to get fired. I mean, I'm not spiteful, but if you're putting
Starting point is 00:35:55 five pickles on the box and I got six, seven, eight pickles, like, what the fuck's happening in the kitchen? You want them to be fired because you got more pickles? Well, because they're not adhering to their own standards. If I were manager there, I'd be screaming. Five pickles! It's on the box!
Starting point is 00:36:12 Five pickles! I would be screaming. Do you think today was somebody's last day? Yeah, they're like, fuck this. Eight pickles. Fuck the man. That guy probably already got fired. You can't tell me what to do, golden chick. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:36:26 What is... How can... This is a limited time thing, right? Yeah. They don't do this all the time. How can the buttery Cholula sauce blend be signature? I don't know. It does not make sense.
Starting point is 00:36:40 That confuses me. Doesn't make any sense. I'm a little animal confused. What a pickle. Pairing with Cholula is bizarre to me. Not that I don't like it. I love Cholula. It's delicious.
Starting point is 00:36:55 But doesn't that seem like a Carl's Jr. thing and not a golden chick thing? A restaurant I've never fucking heard of? I don't know what their thing is because I don't know who they are. Maybe it is a golden chick but Cholula Cholula is like a name brand like that's like a bigger name brand and it just seems to be weird that it's like this place has 110 locations so whatever what goes better what sauce
Starting point is 00:37:18 brand would go better like Tabasco Crystal I mean doesn't Crystal seems like it works doesn't it the jives. Yeah, they're both like the off-brand. Uh-huh. So something to think about. You answered your own question, I suppose. Golden Chick Cholula Chicken Tenders.
Starting point is 00:37:36 Why is Cholula on there twice, Eric? I don't know. Interesting. A lot of weird things happening. 100% Tenderloin Golden Tenders registered trademark tossed in our signature buttery Cholula registered trademark sauce blend
Starting point is 00:37:50 there's no registered trademark on the other one why wasn't there one on the I don't know but I noticed it this morning when I was making this sheet curious indeed also there's that signature buttery Cholula sauce blend again press material is as follows Curious, indeed. Also, there's that signature buttery Cholula sauce.
Starting point is 00:38:05 I don't get it either. Press material is as follows. Even though this year was not quite what we expected. You're telling me, Golden Chick. We are extremely proud of the new menu items and collaborations our team has brought to our loyal guests, says Jim Stevens, president of Golden Chick. Whoa. That's like a normal position.
Starting point is 00:38:26 Yep. Yeah. They don't even got a marketing guy. It's just the president. And also he's talking, like I can relate because yeah, this year has been crazy. He just came out and said it. He was like, this sucks. Oh dude, you know how many things we
Starting point is 00:38:42 do? And it's like, don't talk about it. Don't talk about it. It's from an ad company or whatever. and like, don't talk about it. You're at home. Don't say why. Just say you're at home. No one really knows. It's a secret. He goes on to say, it has been such a pleasure to work alongside the Cholula Hot Sauce team
Starting point is 00:39:03 to add a kick to our best-selling golden tenders and big and golden chicken sandwich. We've had brand collaborations before, but none as hot as this. You know what? That was decent. Oh, baby. That was decent. Yeah, there's no fluff. He, like, made it seem
Starting point is 00:39:20 like this was just, like, a fun project they worked on, and we get to enjoy the benefit. I like this guy. All right project they worked on, and we get to enjoy the benefit. I like this guy. I like Golden Chick. There was another quote from vice president of culinary chefs at whatever, and I just went, no, I like this president one. I thought the president one was stronger.
Starting point is 00:39:36 I bet the other guy sucks. Yeah, the other guy's a turd. He talked about how great their chicken is, and you ate it. I mean, you know what the fuck it is. He's a turd tender, Don't. The other guy. Yeah. I hope he can explain the five pickles fiasco. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:39:49 This is a scandal that's going to rock golden chicks. I mean, he better. Yep. I demand answers. Can I agree more? Okay. Yeah. And I just want to say-
Starting point is 00:39:57 Eric, can you follow up on this? I just want to say the next segment, it says getting the food. I got the food, I win. Ah, I win. Yeah. Yeah. We the food. I win. Ah, I win. Yeah. Yeah. We all won. I win.
Starting point is 00:40:09 Yeah. But I win. Well, you won for us. Yeah. Right. Yeah. I win. I concede nothing.
Starting point is 00:40:14 I won. No, no, no. You don't concede. You just, you won in which we won and then people forgot about your win and they're just like, wow, Michael and Jordan, they really won. Right. I win. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:24 You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I won, yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I won. And we win because we stopped talking about it. We don't have to. Winners don't need to drag it out. Yeah. You know? We would never draw attention to ourselves. Alright. Let's get into the food review my friends
Starting point is 00:40:46 Chicken time chicken time I drank all my water I'm still thirsty Yeah me too I started With the tenders And It's interesting reading how they're made
Starting point is 00:41:04 So they say They're dunked in the signature buttery Cholula sauce blend. So they get dunked and then they come out and they're like, you would assume, bathed in it. And like, you know, it sinks in and becomes one with the chicken. I think they go further to then dunk, reverse dunk the sauce on top of it because this was like, it was stripping with sauce. It wasn't part of yeah, it wasn't one
Starting point is 00:41:33 thing. It was chicken with the sauce on it. And I think they leave that out or they're just lying to us and instead of dunking it in the sauce, they fry the chicken and then dump the sauce on top of it once it's in the box. Who can say? Also, it was cold.
Starting point is 00:41:48 Yeah. Explain that. I can't. I cannot explain it. They should have been way hotter. It was frightening how not warm they were. Oh, hang on. He was frightened.
Starting point is 00:42:00 It was like a ghost did it. He was worried. I was. The worry's been increased to frightened. Listen, here's the thing. The food was a ghost did it. He was worried. I was. The worry's been increased to frightened. Listen, here's the thing. The food was a little bit cold. The word Cholula was on there twice on that one section. This is ghost mischief, and I don't like it.
Starting point is 00:42:12 Yeah, you guys actually really, I feel like if anything, you helped me, because I got here last, and you really set up, you gave me several warnings about the temperature of the food, and I thought it was going to be like ice cold. And it was not nearly as cold as you had prepared me for. Yeah. It was just not hot.
Starting point is 00:42:31 Yes. But I was like, okay, I can see as the person who went and picked it up and knew how long they had it and how long time had passed that it should be hotter. But it certainly wasn't like, oh, this is cold. It was just like, not like you had just got it should be hotter, but it certainly wasn't like, oh, this is cold. It was just like, not like you had just got it 10 minutes ago. Not at all. And that's what it was. Like, it should have been-
Starting point is 00:42:53 The sandwich was warmer. Like, the fries were still warm. Like, everything else was warm. I don't know why those chicken tenders were like just cold. I took a first bite, and this happens to me a lot with stuff that's spicy.
Starting point is 00:43:06 I'm never ready for it, and I inhale, and it goes straight to the back of my throat, and I die. You weren't here. He choked for, like, minutes. Oh, that's funny, because I did, too. A little bit, but it's because I was talking while I was eating, and I did a little inhale, and I was like, oh, that was silly of me, and I coughed for 15 seconds. Yeah, no, his went, it just kept going. My eyes were watering.
Starting point is 00:43:29 Yeah, I needed to recover. But after that, it tasted really good. I don't know what it is. Like, the first one always gets me, and then I'm able to, like, you know, even out. I mean, what do you mean you don't know what it is? You're a spice mouse. Yeah, spice shrew.
Starting point is 00:43:43 You're a little mouse. Spice shrew. You got a little mouse. Spice shrew. You got sauce on your little whiskers. What's smaller than a shrew? You're just getting even smaller. I'm a spice hamster. Hamsters can get pretty big. Hamster is bigger
Starting point is 00:44:00 than a little spicy field mouse. A little tiny guy. I definitely think that it doesn't have spice rat level heat, but it's spice mouse. It's a little hot for a spice mouse. Yeah. I would say if you're a spice mouse, this is going to be a little spicy,
Starting point is 00:44:17 but you can handle it. Yeah. You can keep going. You can power through. But yeah, it was so sopping and stuff. It wasn't very pleasant to eat, and it wasn't pleasant to handle. And also, so much of that sauce, and it's so vinegary, it's all you get is this metallic aftertaste. And you get no chicken and no flavor of the actual sauce, unless you like vinegar.
Starting point is 00:44:40 I combined it with the dipping sauce they had, which is like a, what a cayenne mayonnaise, like every chicken place has. And they're, what do they call it? Lot of zing sauce. That was actually pretty good. You drizzle some of that dry seasoning on it and it adds another layer of flavor to it.
Starting point is 00:44:58 And I really enjoyed it. But at this point I'm doing so much work. Well, yeah, you might as well be working in the kitchen. It's like I'm making the thing from scratch. You might as well be the manager screaming only five pickles at the golden check. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:12 Right. Maybe Michael put those pickles on it because he had to make a sandwich. Who knows? Oh. Wow. You guys are on to me. Yeah. are on to me.
Starting point is 00:45:27 But I'm glad I started with the tenders first because moving on to the sandwich was good. First of all, very big sandwich. Extra large roll indeed. And I don't know why they put cheese on it. Cheese doesn't belong there. Cheese doesn't belong on a chicken sandwich in my opinion. It does. I didn't count how many pickles I had
Starting point is 00:45:44 and I regret it. because i had a lot of but uh it was it was it was warmer it was better like the the the chicken breast patty was very good and juicy it wasn't drenched in sauce like the tenders were it was red and it was like one with its uh breadinging and sauce and stuff. And then you put their little signature sauce. You pour a little on top of it. Mwah. Chef's kiss.
Starting point is 00:46:14 That was great. No longer small animal hungry, small animal satisfied. Wow. So, yeah, the sandwich was better. That's why I told you, speaking of like tips and stuff, I told you to go for the tenders first and then go for the sandwich because it's better to end on a high note. Also, I couldn't eat all of it.
Starting point is 00:46:32 I ate about half the sandwich and about half the tenders and was full because that's a lot of food. It was filling. It was very filling. Yeah. So we, you know, the food was the Cholula chicken, or Cholula, if that's how you want to call it. Both are acceptable.
Starting point is 00:46:50 They were a sandwich or a tender option, and for really no reason, we chose both. That's true. We could have just picked one, but we did choose both. So we're rating it. But what if we had chose wrong? Well, the thing is, we run into this, right? And this is what happened with the Wendy's sandwich.
Starting point is 00:47:09 It's like, yes, what if we chose wrong? But then the lesser one, it always drags down the rating. It does, yeah. You know what I mean? It gets mad at us. Like, if we just picked one, it's true. If we picked the bad one, it would have been worse. But if we picked a good one, it would have been even better.
Starting point is 00:47:23 Yeah. So it's just, again. You gotta find the average, guys. Okay, so what are picked a good one, it would have been even better. So again, what are you prepared to rate them considering both of them? I've been thinking long and hard about this. Actually, I'm just thinking of a number right now, and that number is 66.
Starting point is 00:47:37 Wow, dude. 66. Michael. This is like poetry. You know, Jordan goes, I gave you a tip. Michael This is Like It's like poetry You know Jordan goes I gave you a tip Try the chicken tenders first
Starting point is 00:47:51 And on a high note Chicken tenders Way better than the sandwich Wow I Love the chicken tenders I loved Everything he said he didn't like about them
Starting point is 00:48:02 I loved them That they were dripping And soppy And like all the sauce. Because then I got to the sandwich. I got to the sandwich and I was like, oh, this isn't nearly as spicy. Like all the spice was in the tendies. And I was like, ooh, ooh.
Starting point is 00:48:15 Like my nose was running a little bit. Like I needed my mommy to give me a tissue. Didn't have that with the sandwich. I did like the cheese. me a tissue uh didn't have that with the sandwich i did i did like the cheese i will say you enter you enter barbarian level if you just had chicken tenders and started throwing cheese around i'm not an animal i'm not a monster okay but if it's in a sandwich form with a bun you can always use cheese that's just that's the way of the world but i had the i had the chicken tenders and my thought was oh jordan told me to eat these first because these are great.
Starting point is 00:48:46 That's why he told me to eat the chicken tenders first. Temperature was fine. It could have been hotter. The thing I didn't like about the tenders was I enjoyed how much sauce there was. I really liked the flavor. I liked the meat, like the, I don't know, juiciness the white uh chicken meat it wasn't like i don't know i felt like it was all like good chicken i liked i liked throughout the whole tender there wasn't like a like a shitty part on the chicken tender it was like a good chicken tender like a weird hole or
Starting point is 00:49:18 like yeah you know what i mean or just like oh this part's a little stringy or whatever like it was a solid chicken tender the only thing is it was so soft yeah you know like like so wet it's it's they're so wet and they and it's just like not they still couldn't have been cooked that long right they couldn't have been crispy like a golden crisp before the sauce was gonna on because even still there's no way sauce would make it that soft in a matter of 20 minutes, 15, 20 minutes. So it was weird that if you're holding the middle of the chicken tender, the whole chicken tender would like droop. Which is very abnormal for a chicken tender. That said, it was a weird consistency.
Starting point is 00:49:56 That said, I loved it. I thought it was delicious. Very unusual. Loved it. I got to, you know, I was like, oh, that's kind of weird. But in my mouth and in my belly, it was, you know, it was, it all came together. Yeah. Um, sandwich, it was good.
Starting point is 00:50:13 It's definitely, if you're, if you're like, I don't want that much sauce. I want it to be a little neater, definitely less messy, outrageous number of pickles. I did enjoy the sandwich. I just like, I like the kick that the chicken tenders had. Now that said, you could probably just get the sauce and dump it on the chicken sandwich. I didn't do that. I didn't, you know, we had the zing sauce, like you said. We didn't have the chalula sauce, like extra.
Starting point is 00:50:40 But I liked it. I thought all around both were good. I really fucking liked it. I thought all around both were good. I really fucking enjoyed it. I stopped eating the sandwich about two-thirds through because I was like, I'm going to blow up. This is too much. And then, like, every single fortnight, Nick goes, oh, I made a mistake.
Starting point is 00:50:58 And I go, did you eat it all? And he goes, yeah, every single time. He eats it all and then goes,, yeah. Every. Single. Time. He eats it all and then goes, I shouldn't have done that. Uh-oh. But I thought it was really good. I like the tenders more than the sandwich, but I liked them both. I'm gonna give it 75. Wow.
Starting point is 00:51:20 How do you feel about the 75, Jordan? It's interesting. I'm very surprised that he liked the Tinders so much as he described them in the least appetizing and appealing ways possible. That's an average score of 70.5. Wow. It's a passing grade. C's get degrees. That's a good score for this show.
Starting point is 00:51:40 I want to point out... I think it's acceptable, yeah. I would just like to say that as Michael started his review, and until even now, I've watched a man fall off of a scooter about 30 yards in front of me. He ate shit.
Starting point is 00:52:01 Is he okay? Jordan, he's still on the ground. Is he moving? He ate shit moving is a relative term he started rolling around on the ground somebody came over to help him he waved off their help continued rolling around on the ground they helped him pick up water bottles somebody is finally helping him to his feet now so just know the entire time until right now where Michael was giving his review I watched a grown man roll around on the
Starting point is 00:52:34 ground after eating shit on a like a motor scooter thing let me ask you this why the hell didn't you tell us I know like I want to see. Because you wouldn't. Because you wouldn't have been able to see.
Starting point is 00:52:48 Can you see? I would have jumped out of my fucking car. I would have stood in front of my car. Yeah, who gives a shit about the food? Who gives a shit about the food review? It's just a food review podcast. I wanted to see the guy rolling around on the floor. We could have run up to him.
Starting point is 00:53:00 We could have seen him rolling around in the dirt like a little worm. I know. We could have interviewed him. You're telling me what I missed. Yeah. Crazy. What a gatekeeper. You're telling me what I missed. Yeah. Crazy. What a gatekeeper. What a gatekeeper, this guy.
Starting point is 00:53:08 Look, they're calling the emergency medical services over for him. There's a golf cart driving over that's got an orange flag on it. It's like... When he fell, he did... I can't believe you didn't tell us this. He did a full flip, but he held onto the scooter the entire time. Well, that's the most important thing. You don't want to damage the scooter.
Starting point is 00:53:30 It was fucking like, it was awesome. But I think he's like legit hurt. He can hardly walk. He had water bottles in his hands. They went everywhere. Like he was bringing them. So this is probably a dude from the production over there, right? They're shooting something.
Starting point is 00:53:48 So that was like a PA guy or something bringing water. There were a bunch of people waiting for waters and they're just like, I'm fucking thirsty. Where's my water? And there's just a man rolling around in the dirt. Do you think Okay, now I think Michael should lower his score based on that. No. No, it just lowers my opinion of Eric.
Starting point is 00:54:05 Do you think Now I mentioned just lowers my opinion of Eric. Do you think, now I mentioned how I was out of water, do you think I could get away with going over there and going, oh man, are you okay? But can I get one of those waters? Can I get one of these? Because that's the thing when there's a big shoot. They're not going to know everybody on set.
Starting point is 00:54:20 They have no idea. They have no clue. I could just walk over. This has nothing to do with us. This is some other thing going on. And I could just be like, let me get one of those waters. And the guy will go. And then I'll go, oh, so this one's cool?
Starting point is 00:54:34 Okay. I'm going to cruise back to my car. Him waving off someone that tried to help him up. And then they started picking up his waters and putting them next to him. Like, here are all the waters that he dropped. Once you're done rolling around, you can pick these up. All right, hang on. We'll get Snack-A-Chack.
Starting point is 00:54:51 I'll get you guys these. Hang on. Did he say Snack-A-Chack? He did, yeah. He's been talking weird all day. Talking real weird. I waited for him to take his headphones off to say it so he didn't fly into a rage. I think at one point
Starting point is 00:55:06 he said it's been all over dude I forget what the sentence was but he was saying this is something for me the last word was me but he said ming oh no I just hope he's okay
Starting point is 00:55:22 I hope he didn't fall off a scooter and hit his head and now he don't talk right oh man oh my god this looks like shit what a mess here you go ginger chews pepperoni ginger chews

This is a continuation from two weeks ago, because we had so many damn snacks and i think last episode we called up the fact that eric wrote kira sent a lot of snack and that maybe he should fix that he didn't fix that i deleted all the ones that we already did but this will be the last kira snacks
Starting point is 00:56:41 so we got the pepero white chocolate pocky and the mango ginger chews mango pepper oh for you i have a question what is pepper oh pepper oh what do you mean it's is it pepperoni no why would it be pepperoni it's a white chocolate situation a type of white chocolate what were the little little guys? Korea! Korea, number one brand. Chocolate and biscuit white cookie. Okay, whatever you say, dude. White chocolate. I liked it. It's not what he says, it's what Korea says. I'm getting into it. It was good. I liked it.
Starting point is 00:57:14 I ate it already. You like that Pepero? Yeah, that Pepero was good. Pepero for you! This chew thing does not want to come out of the wrapper. Yeah, I'm struggling too. I have not eaten it yet. Did you leave it in your glove compartment? No. I would never leave it in my glove compartment.
Starting point is 00:57:29 God damn. That means yes. It means hard yes. Whenever he says, I would never do this, it means I already did this. I don't like this thing. I like the pepper-o. I don't like this thing. It's too chewy.
Starting point is 00:57:41 Mine came out. It's stuck to my teeth. I'm going to eat this directly into the microphone, and you can take this out, but I want you to have it just in case. Yeah, I don't like this. I like the Pepero. This sucks.
Starting point is 00:57:58 Are we rating them separately? Is that what we're doing? Uh-huh. Pepero. I give that an E. It's a little sweet for me. It's good. 70. And what do you say, Jordan, for the Pepero? 80 give that an E It's a little sweet for me It's good 70
Starting point is 00:58:05 And what do you say Jordan For the Pepero 80 Okay 75 That makes sense This guy You got a sweet tooth
Starting point is 00:58:10 More than I do Uh huh This sucks I don't like this thing at all Mine accidentally fell out of my mouth And out of my car And onto the ground First of all
Starting point is 00:58:18 What do you mean accidentally I just saw you open the door And spit it out First of all It's way too chewy It's like It's like Some shit gets stuck in your teeth. This is like you would buy this to get it stuck in your teeth.
Starting point is 00:58:29 Yeah. And second of all, the ginger is not good. It doesn't taste good. It's got an unpleasant spice to it. It sucks. This sucks. I'm going to give this a 10. This sucks.
Starting point is 00:58:39 10. Yeah. The mango is there for a second, and then it's ginger. It's all ginger. And then just a hint of mango, and it's like a bad mango aftertaste. It's not good. I'm going to give it a 10 as well.
Starting point is 00:58:50 Why not? 10 it is. I think if it was only mango, it would be fine. But the mango that's there sucks, and the ginger that's there is not good. It tastes like burnt. It does. Yeah. It's almost a dish. That's your tongue burning from the ginger. Yeah, that burnt. It does. Yeah. It's almost a dish. That's your tongue burning
Starting point is 00:59:06 from the ginger. Yeah, that's the acid from the ginger. Yep. So, can you do better than Kira, who sent us a bunch of snacks and she did a great job?
Starting point is 00:59:15 You can send us snacks to review, to Face Jam, care of, Eric Bedour, 1901 East 51st Street, Austin, Texas, 78723.

Starting point is 01:00:12 we did oh yeah okay but talk about it let's so we're doing we're doing an advent calendar of wine yes so have we acquired it do we have it i have not acquired it yet no we should probably do that eric doesn't have a costco card i don't have do that. Eric doesn't have a Costco card. I don't have a Costco card. That was the mango ginger fighting back. Oh no. We're supposed to do the opposite of that. We're going to drink a lot of wine
Starting point is 01:00:37 and a lot of shirts are going to be on sale and it's going to be a great time for everyone. Are we going to have food as well? Yeah, I'm going to buy some Christmas snackies. But we aren't rating any of the food. We're not even really rating the wine. I guess we are.
Starting point is 01:00:55 We can pick our favorite wine. I just need the food with the wine. How big are the wines? Half bottles. What? There's 25 half bottles? Yeah, so we have to, but we're gonna split all of those. I realize
Starting point is 01:01:10 that, but that doesn't really fall that doesn't really fall into the advent calendar spirit, right? Usually it's like, the thing that's this big. I was thinking like they'd be little baby bottles of wine. Yeah, half a bottle. How could we all drink it? Yeah. Well, he would buy multiples, that bottle of baby bottles. How could we all drink it?
Starting point is 01:01:25 Yeah. Well, he would buy multiples. That's how. Do we have to drink all of it? Like a month? You? All of us. Do we have- Half bottles?
Starting point is 01:01:35 That's what I'm worried about. Jordan, let me do some math. That's over 10 bottles. Yeah, but between four people, we're talking about three bottles each and that's no problem. We'll just drink three bottles of wine each in 90 minutes and that shouldn't
Starting point is 01:01:53 be a problem. There's going to be so much red wine. I'm going to hate it. I hate wine. I hate it. I'm going to be so drunk and hateful. They're going to have that cheap tannin thing that turns your teeth blue. So we're going to look fucking wild. Our tongues are going to be red and our teeth are going to be blue.
