I think we've broken Wendy's. Oh, I think that's absolutely what happened. If you're not going to hire us, we're going to bring down the power of God on you. That's right. Guys, our heroes have done it. The pretzel pub has run the table and will return to the Wendy's menu. Or we're going to sue your ass. That's right.

Thanks to our... They said whatever wins comes back. We'll Pepsi jet the shit out of you. That's right. Jordan, activating the audience to get this going. We activated them. Michael, stepping up, powerful as ever, saying, rally around me.

To me! And the whole, the bug army came out of the woodwork to vote for this thing. And prevent a little, like, voter fraud. It was, dude, we double whammed him. We were, we were about to convene days ago when they tried to pull the rug out from under us. No rug, we rug pull you, you don't rug pull us. This really also. We rug push.

That's, we rug push. That's right. We push back. Yeah, I just, I held on to the rug and they were like, look, don't stop. I'm trying to pull it. And I was like, mm-mm, I'm just going to keep standing on it. We had a theory that this was all a ploy for them to just do the yellow. Do the yellow packaging?

Right. Because no one gives a shit about Wendy's. No one gives a shit about any of this beyond us because we are contractually obligated by our own contracts. It is our jobs to care about this. People like memes. People like, Yellow packaging, that's not even a food.

You could tell it was a sham also because they had sauce against burgers. Yes, none of it made sense. So here's the bracket. Well, what was so interesting is that when it came down to pretzel pub versus yellow packaging, Clearly, I think there were some malfeasans already at play where like pretzel pubs obviously better. Yeah. But they weren't anticipating the 100% eat.

They weren't. Push. That's right. And the eaters coming together. Absolutely, we're not. Yeah. So here's what happened. Wendy's put out on X, the Everything website.

Everyone loves it. They put out a bracket called the Bring It Back Bracket. After a tough fight to make it on the bracket, we have our finalists. America, we want to hear from you. Tell us what you want to see. back on the menu. Voting starts now. And so here's the lineup. I'm not even like a huge Wendy's guy. And this bracket

sucks. This bracket sucks. Like there's so many more things. Like if you were actually a real thing of like hey, like Taco Bell would do it. Uh-huh. Well like Taco Bells had so many things like do you want the Mexican pizza? Do you want it? This is like half of it's sauce. Are you ready for this? It sucks. Bourbon bacon cheeseburger. Okay. That's decent. Okay. That actually I believe.

That's a cheeseburger with bacon. Here's the thing. But it is the thing. But is the. I believe it's the thing that replaced the pretzel pub. Yeah, and we were mad. It's the thing that came after. People keep saying replace. It came after. It didn't replace it.

That went one on one. That went one on one in the first round against sweet and sour sauce. Which also, they got rid of sweet and sour sauce. It's like a, it's a staple. That's a staple chicken nugget sauce. That's also not like, like on the food line. That's a private equity cost cutting measure. Yes.

It's very strange. It saved them maybe like $10,000. There's no way it's. Save them more than it infuriated people. Yep. Like, like, I believe people when they say I don't go to Wendy's because I would get that with my nuggets. Yep. Like that, I believe that's not a zero star review on Yelp.

That's like, yeah, I get it with my nuggets too at McDonald's. If I went to Wendy's, I got that saw. We're cutting packaged sauce. Yep. So speaking of, after that, it's the bacon portobello melt. Never heard of it. Never had it. I don't like portobello.

And the ghost in general. Ghost pepper ranch sauce. Ghost pepper ranch sauce. That's pretty, see that, that I understand a little bit like they got rid of it. That just seems more outside the box. But sweet and sour, very strange. Yep, yep. Then it's the dream sickle frosty.

Okay, that's a real thing. Against yellow packaging. That one was pretty good. I would have voted for Dreamcicle Frosty or yellow packaging because who gives a shit about some yellow packaging? Right. No one. I'm not going to eat it.

I've eaten it before. It's not that good. Yep. Finally, it's the Monterey Ranch chicken sandwich against the pretzel pub burger. So the voting began at the end of March on the 30th. Not even that made, was it? So eight things? Yeah.

That's that big of a bread? Nope. Well, they were trying to do their own March madness kind of thing. Pretzel Pub won against Monterey Ranch Chicken sandwich. Of course. 74% to 26. The yellow packaging won 68 to 32. And now, my see, that is already suspicious.

Yep. That is too much for yellow packaging. See, that's not suspicious because no one is voting because nobody eats Wendy's that's voting. Some people go, ugh, and clicking. Some of the numbers on these. or like weird. It's like 2,000 people voting. Well, that's the thing too to also to put this in perspective.

It's in the low 1,000,000. It's not a million people. This is not Wendy's at its viral marketing heyday where you think so many. So that I get, you know, a thousand stupid people pick yellow packaging and, you know, 400, 300 people pick something else. So the bacon, bourbon, cheeseburger one, and so did ghost pepper ranch sauce. So that was the one-on-one competition to see who would go to the fine. And that was 64% for the bourbon bacon cheeseburger to move on to the finals. Fine.

In the other bracket, it was the pretzel pub and the yellow packaging. And here's where it got screwy. This was highly suspicious. Only 1,240 votes, which is almost double what the other vote had. But it ends in 50-50. However, which... It was like 50.4 to 49.6. Right, right. 50-50, a broad view.

Yes, but yeah, in the specific it was, it was marked. But marked as the winner. Well, because also, and I'll say, this is when we chimed in, yellow packaging was winning handily. And then, at like 300 votes. And then our heroes. It was like 300 and so votes. And it was like 80 to 20. This is where our heroes come in.

Yes. And much to the chagrin of Wendy's, their whole plan falls apart. It all fell apart at this point. Wholeheartedly, I believe, we pushed pretzel pub. Like I said, the final poll was like 1,200. We probably had 500 people. Absolutely. Yes.

Or insane Discord. Yeah. That's not hubris to think we got at least four or five hundred. Nope. Yep. Or even if it was 100, we had some Spencer's. We had some Spencer's. He made nine accounts.

Oh, yeah. Sure. Okay. The Discord was going crazy. No, so it ends in 50-50. However, marked as the winner. Check mark. Yeah.

It's the pretzel pub. Pretzel pub. Pretzap is the winner. Then. they put out their final bracket. And this was Monday before the like, this was on Monday, April to 6th. They put out their final bracket.

And it was, hey, get your votes in now. Here it is your finals. The bourbon bacon cheeseburger against yellow packaging. You should have seen the discord. Dude, crazy. The text, the comments. We were quote tweeting, yelling fraud, fraud watch.

Stop the steel. Everyone going crazy. How are you going to try? Like straight up. Like you got the check mark did it in. Yeah. Right. If it was 50,

we have the proof. We didn't tell you. Right? Because it, because like, I don't know how you get the overview of the more specific numbers because I saw someone did.

Yeah. Take that picture where it's like, it was like 50.4 pub and like 49.6. Yep. But the overview was 50. But X gave it that little check mark. Yeah. You kind of.

Yeah. That's that. That's the winner. That was it. And we were projecting. And we were celebrating that day. Yeah. We won.

We just did a. Can't wait take this. Which, like, again, it won by less than 1%. It definitely was us and the eaters. No question out of 1,200 votes. And so when they put out the yellow packaging in the final, it was like, well, this confirmed everything that we knew weeks ago where it was a sham. They're just going to already bought the yellow package.

This was the marketing ploy. They wanted to come back like a king. But we were more powerful than the Wendy's bots. So we yelled at Wendy's and everyone on the digital. discord, yelled at Wendy so much. They deleted the post. And then we were texting. In 15 minutes.

They did. And we were texting later and I'm like, cannot be refuted. I'm like, I think they're going to drop this whole thing. I don't think they're going to post about it again. And then Jordan, they can't bail on it. Jordan like a minute later just wrote,

well, well, well. And it was the post of, hey, the bourbon bacon cheeseburger and the pretzel pub burger have made it to our championships. Get your votes in.

And it is. And it slaughtered him. It is. pub sloth. It's a It's a decadation. It didn't matter. My favorite thing is

the people outside of the 100% E.V. Wendy's, you know, MCU, I saw one guy go to the new pole. Huh? I just voted for yellow packaging five minutes ago. Yeah.

You don't know what the fuck's going on. That's right. They tried, they literally tried to steal this election. Yep. I was this close to holding a press conference outside of landscaping company. Fuck it.

Show him. That's, this is. This is where we make our money. This is how we make this. You see, I have this in my car for no reason? You think we don't care about this? We were going to take a tour of headquarters.

Yeah, we should have fucking hired us. I should have hired us. My favorite. We told you in the video, you ignored. This is going to save your goddamn company. It wins the poll and you try to bury it. We're dragging them, kicking and screaming against their will. You're welcome.

You're welcome to fucking. They won't do it. 20 years from now when you're a grown-up, You're going to look back and this and go, thank you. I needed that discipline. I was a child then and I didn't understand, but you were right 100% to eat. I think my favorite post. When their stock finally goes up for the first time in five years.

My fit, God. My favorite post on it was from Forster who just said, Justice has served thank you our heroes. And it's the I did that stickers. Fucking awesome. Well, coincidentally, gas is prices of skyrocketed. Yeah. We also did that.

We did that too, if you want. Can we release news stickers that says you did that? You shouldn't have done that. We didn't know this what happened. There was one message when the correct poll came up where somebody crossed out no kings and wrote some kings. That's pretty cool. We can have some kings.

Well, you can, like, king of the country, king of podcasts. Yeah, I think that's fine. King of White Guy podcasts. Do King of Wendy's, like, we are doing everything in our power to steer them to the correct way? While they are in the driver's seat, fighting us. They're veering.

They're very in oncoming traffic and we're grabbing the wheel. We're like MCU Odin and we had to like kill evil Dave Thomas and then we took Wendy's

in as Loki. It was like you're our child now. So we're helping you. We're helping you. So the pretzel pub slaughtered all the way, ran the table through to the end. And I can't wait to fucking eat it.

So that's what we're doing. Day one, we're there. That's what has to do if they put it out. Here's what we've been talking about it. Once they put the new poll back up, they submitted where they have to.

They are then also. They're also going to put out yellow packaging. That hour or so that it was down, I think it was just them being like, look, we'll honor the results. Yeah. And then we'll also release. There were meetings. Then they're going to say, hey guys. Yes. And you love yellow packaging so much.

That's exactly. We're listening to you. We're going to bring it back to you. And maybe they'll throw in sweet sour sauce. Yeah. Here's, we have it sitting in a truck. Here's what happened. They definitely had too much. Everyone rallied around our heroes and fucked Wendy so hard that their plan for yellow packaging exploded in front of their eyes and they didn't know what to do. They had meetings and conferences and work calls to have to set this straight. They tried to fuck on you and you said no and now the pretzel pub is coming back,

probably wrapped in yellow packaging. And you know what? That's fine. That's fine. That's fine. This is what democracy looks like. That's kind of like democracy manifests. That's kind of like yellow packaging getting cucked. Like it's wrapping the winner. Yep. Oh yeah.

It's like, I lost. That's pretty cool. Let me hug you. You did such a good job. Dude, I love the way that this went. This is incredible. It could not have gone better. We fucking.

We fucking mugged on Wendy's. Absolutely. Yeah. They got burger mogged. I'll say it. Yeah. Yeah. We were, we were pub maxing.

Wendy's, you can't fight 100% any. You can't. You should stop trying. You should just hire us. I don't know. If this doesn't show that you should just hire us, I don't know what else will. It's like when hackers hack the government and then they hire them. You're good.

Yeah, you're good. That's right. We're white hats. Hey, hey, we're going to pay you each $100,000. We are Leonardo DiCaprio and catch me if you can. That's right. We now work for the government because we're so good at fucking them over. This is.

No time, sir. That's I. I'm a pilot. I like monkey in that shirt. He looks like he's getting, like he's going to. He looks like church, but he's going to like brunch after church. It looks like he's going to go golf. He looks like he's going to go hit the links.

Let's go, fellas. Yeah. No, I'm good. So, pretzel pub. I don't want to. I want to eat a pretzel pub. God, so bad. I'm going to set fucking records eating that thing, dude.

I cannot wait. How long is it going to take for them? Forever. I think it's going to be a while. Whatever. Because they have to, this was not in their plan. They have to adjust calendars. I do think that it will come back.

It's going to be a while. And don't forget, when you get the pretzel pub, do not get the burger. You have to substitute it with spicy chicken. If you're a spicy mouse, I mean, get regular. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But the chicken's so much better than the burger. It's so much better. They don't even know that.

No, they have no idea. Well, when they come to us, groveling, we'll let them know, hey, just so you know. It's the spicy chicken. Like, if you want to get the burger, that's fine. But you should be pushing the chicken. Because it's the superior way to eat. So superior. and I cannot wait to have it

because of you guys and our heroes rallying around in this bracket that they did not want to go this way at all. It's so good. I'm thrilled. I'm thrilled. This is us wrapping up. This has been breaking news.

We have done it. Our heroes have done. Hey, you know what? We did it. No, no. They clap. We bowed. I'm not standing.

I didn't say you have to stand. Well, I'm going to bow now. Okay, he bowed to. He bowed too. Good job, everyone. Yeah, great work. We need to go.
