Apple, grapefruit, peanut butter, salami. Are those names celebs are giving their kids now? Yes, but also they're the ingredients in weird celebrity sandwiches. This is a hot dog is a sandwich. Ketchup is a smoothie. Yeah, I put ice in my cereal, so what? That makes no sense. A hot dog is a sandwich.

A hot dog is a sandwich. What? Welcome to our podcast, A Hot Dog is a Sandwich, the show we break down the world's biggest food debates. I'm your host, Josh Apple Martin. I'm Nicole Pilot Inspector in IAD. Who is Pilot Inspector? That guy in a...

My name is Earl. Oh, Jason Lee? I think he named his kid pilot. Professional skateboarder Jason Lee. I think he named his kid Pilot Inspector. That's pretty cool. How do I know that? Yes.

I did? Wow, you want to know how I know that? VH1. VH1 is what led the base for Josh and I's knowledge, I would like to say. Do you know Frank Zappa's kids' names? Of course. I do. There's Moonbeam. Moon Unit. Moon Unit. Oh, don't tell me. It's a dweasel. Dweasel and moon unit. Why were we watching the same VH1 shows? We were, it was, I love the 90s, I love the 80s. Hal Sparks, Michael Ian Black. I've never seen how Sparks outside of that. We are losing ancient texts because that's where we learned about the world. The world. The culture. I learned about everything. I learned about talking head shows. I, I

I swear, that's not even a joke. I really did. I know, I got a question right on, as like a trivia the other day. It was about Jeff Galooly. I don't know who that is. Jeff Galilee was the one who he was a Tanya Harding's partner that hired the people. Yeah, with the poll. Yeah, and they did a lot of Tanya Harding stuff on VH1.

They really did. But we're not talking about Tanya Harding unless, do Tanya Harding have a sandwich that she made? I don't know, but she did do other stuff. She certainly did. Watch VH1 about it. Wait, what did she? Oh, did she make a... Yeah.

Oh, my God. Don't Google it on the word laptop. I'm not going to Google it on the work laptop. I'm not going to... No, you go pre-incognito mode on the phone. What we're going to do is we're going to taste test some weird celebrity sandwiches because there are some weird celebrity sandwiches. Celebs, they're just like us.

Not really. They like weird stuff. I think so. Well, no. Let's break this down. We get to interact with a lot of celebrities. on the show Last Meals mostly. Correct. Would you consider yourself a celebrity?

I don't know. Can I tell you the honest truth? Yeah. I feel like as maybe it's the former slash current journalist in me, but I feel like I am a direct observer to myself changing with the modicum of celebrity that I've had. I feel like I could almost write like a field piece. You're the Jonathan Gold of Celebrity Interviews. Jonathan Gold of Celebrity Interviews.

Like you're not a. Celebrity per se, but you, it's like, he's not a chef per se, but he is a purveyor of good food. Yeah, yeah. Like, you're not a celebrity per se. You're a purveyor of asking celebrities great questions. You know what's an interesting thing, though, about, like, Sean Evans, it's like a celebrity now. You know what I mean? Sure. Here's the interesting thing about celebrity, though, is it stacks.

It compounds over time. Say more. So all of the things that, I remember the first time I started getting recognized was like probably summer. or 2021. After the pandemic, world had just opened up a little bit. You know, it's like, whoa. But like, those people that recognized me back then,

even if they stopped watching the content, which I think they did because a lot of us on Snapchat back then. But anyways, those people still know who you are. Okay. Right? There's like, let's look at like Mythical Kitchen YouTube, right? There's a certain amount of churn.

We acquire new subscribers. Other people fall off, et cetera, et cetera. But all of those subscribers that fell off would still recognize you in the street. Sure. Okay. So now, like, I'm getting recognized more and more, and it's, like, affecting the way that I interact with the world more and more in a certain way. Okay.

Of there's times where I, you know, if I'm going to a friend's wedding, I have to now adjust for the fact that their cousins are, and I've, like, learned lessons a hard way. Mm-hmm. Like, at Deep's wedding, I spent, like, an hour and a half away from Deep, and my wife and my best friends talking to his cousin. who were fans. Yeah. And then suddenly I'm not giving my friend the attention that he deserves. Oh, the most special day. And I'm taking attention away from him.

So now there's like things you have to learn, you know, within that. That's very true. I got recognized. I isolate you from people in a way. I got recognized at IKEA today. Yeah? Yeah. In the bathroom.

Was it a pleasant experience? Yeah, we were washing our hands. That was very insightful. But do you think, Nicole, check out. Check the segue out. Check the segue. Check the segue. Okay, indulge me.

Come on, let's go. Do you think that you getting recognized has made you make weird sandwiches? No, I've always been a little freak. I've always had a little bit of weirdo. Gross girl, freak. Okay, I think we should start with the OG weird sandwich, which is the Elvis. The Elvis. This is the weird celebrity sandwich that I think all weird celebrity sandwiches are, like, judged from.

Correct. This is the main one. And then there's the Elvis. And then he had, golly, what's the other one? What's the other one? What's the, there was like, I think it was Elvis ate this on a plane. It was like, there was jelly on it as well. That looks so freaking good. There's jelly on it as well.

It was called like a miners loaf or something. Yeah. So it is called the Fools Gold Sandwich. And it is a whole loaf of bread hollowed out with peanut butter jelly and a pack of bacon. And it is at a restaurant in, I actually have it in my research dog. In Denver? In Denver, Colorado, made by the Colorado Mine Company restaurant. And he flew on a plane and I believe ordered 22 of them with him and his friends.

And they ate them and drank champagne on his private jet and partied. That's crazy, ma'am. Right. So this sandwich that Josh and I are eating is known as the Elvis. It's a peanut butter, banana, and bacon sandwich on toasted white bread. This is a weird sandwich. Do you think, I don't know that I've ever had just as straight up Elvis. Me either.

I've, like, had Elvis-y things. We put a recipe for Elvis bread pudding in our cookbook. It just makes sense. Bacon makes sense here. Bacon is a condiment. I like peanut butter and meat. More people need to be putting more peanut butter on more meat. You mean peanut butter?

No, I don't mean meat nut butter. Ew. That sounds gross. I don't like that. I think it's neat to honey. With the banana and the bacon. So good. It works together with peanut butter.

This is a great sandwich. So dreamy. Were you an Elvis fan growing up? What? Were you an Elvis fan growing up? Couldn't name a song. That's not true. Poundog.

There we go. Blue Hawaii. Mm-hmm. I think it was a movie he was in as well. Yeah, I'm trying to name movies. Jail House Rock. So I went to Memphis for a wedding, and I got tickets to go see Elvis's house. Looks like a regular house on like foothill and sunset, babe.

It was literally there, and I'm like, I've literally been to a house that looks exactly like this for like, Is this his childhood house or is this Graceland? This is Graceland. Oh, wow. Yeah. It was really cool, though. Like, he had, like, this grottoy style, like... Yeah.

...bottom part of his house. And he had these, like, beautiful, like, fabricier, like, tables and stuff. And I'm like, this guy's definitely living, like, the average version of Jew in Los Angeles in the sex days. It was really funny. Were your parents really big into Elvis? Um, not really. They weren't those kinds of immigrants. They didn't really understand the Elvis passion.

My mom did tell me, though, one time they did show an Elvis movie in Iran, and she went with her brother and she watched it like three times. When she was a kid, though. But it never like, it never manifested when she was older. What a cool snapshot into history, though. Your mom watching an Elvis movie in Pre-Revolution Iran. I know, right? Yeah. I feel like my dad should have been an Elvis guy.

But he wasn't? He just, he wasn't in anything guy. He had no passions. He died without a passion. Your dad? Yeah. What about you guys? He wasn't passionate about you guys?

He was passionate about us, but if that, you know. And then he definitely was passionate. Sure, fair point. You just got schooled by a parent. Yeah, fair, yeah, yeah. Okay, I mean, I'd rank this sandwich pretty high. Is it better than a peanut butter and banana sandwich? Does adding the bacon make it better?

If the bacon was a thick-cut bacon from the deli of someone who really, really love their craft, maybe. But not in this bite. Yeah. I think that, yeah, I do love the bacon in it, though. But it's not giving me what I need. You know what I mean? I would just put a handful of salt on it. If the bacon, like, I love the warmth of the bacon.

Sure. Slightly melting the peanut butter and making them bananas. You get a banana slightly warmed and it's like a little bit fudgy or more pliable. It kind of makes you want to gag when you talk about the banana like that. The hot peanut butter I love, the hot banana smegma, I don't like. Not a hot banana smegma. It's slightly warm banana smegma. Well, that's what happens with banana smegma.

When it gets warm, it gets all, like, weird and tacky and, like, it's bad. No, I love it. I don't love it. Not fun. I get this, like, a solid. It's a good start. It's like an eight, like an eight flat. I'm going to give it a seven.

Seven? That's reasonable. I'm a reasonable woman, dude. It's a better sandwich? Tell me. I don't know if there's a celebrity thing. Go ahead. I'm eating too much.

I'm hungry. I skipped lunch. Me too. I went to IKEA, actually. That's not true. What did you get for my idea? I got the meatballs, Josh, with the side of lingamberry jam, some peas and mashed taters. The meatballs at IKEA are really bad.

I don't... I like them. They're like sponges. They're like... I mean, yeah, it's... They're sponges of beef. They're bad in the same way that, like, a banquet rib TV dinner is bad. We're like, yeah, I'll still suck down this, like, mashed pork product and sugary barbecue sauce, sure.

Mm-hmm. But, like, they're... They're not, they're just frozen meatballs. I've like never been there. You know, when in, I've never been there? I've never like eaten at an Ikea. I was like, when in Sweden, eat a Swedish meatball. Sure, but you can also get grove locks.

I didn't want grove locks. I'm going to IKEA and I'm ripping grove locks. It did look really good, though, the grove locks. Crunchy peanut butter, mayonnaise, and banana. You have told me about that's a very southern sandwich. Can we make one? Not right now, but yeah. Why?

I don't have crunchy peanut butter. I have smooth Peter Pan. We have crunchy in the kitchenette. We do? I'm not doing that. I want it. Okay. Well, now we have... Come on.

I want a sandwich. We have three more sandwiches to choose from. Do you want to stay in the world of peanut butter, or do you want to stay in the world of musicians? Peanut butter. Okay, so go ahead and hand me that pita right here. Here's the thing about peanut butter. Nobody knew what you were supposed to do with it because it's new. It wasn't invented for a long time.

Washington Carver Jr.? What? Carver Washington Jr.? Who invented peanut butter? George Washington Carver. Anything of Booker T Washington? Washington Carver? I don't know. I thought his name was Washington Carver. Washington Irving?

No, no, no, no. George Washington Carver. He invented 100 uses for peanuts. That's what we learned. That's like what we learned in school. He did so, so, so much, especially for black sharecroppers and then agriculture science in general. And like, he didn't like invent peanut butter. He did a lot of...

Josh, that's going to get taken out of context. and the next thing you know, you're going to be on a weird website. What? That he didn't invent peanut butter. Oh, God. Oh, God. It's just like, there are peanuts have existed for a while, but people figured out how to mash them. Okay.

People figured out how to mash him. So this is by our beloved actor, Jeff Daniels, and he says that he likes a pita bread with a thick layer, a quarter inch of creamy peanut butter, crushed cheddar and sour cream ruffled potato chips, and a drizzle of sweet baby raised barbecue sauce all folded over. Name your favorite Jeff Daniels roll on three. One, two. Old White Guy that knows better than the young liberal kids in the newsroom. I was going to say dumb and dumber.

Oh. Because Dumb and Dumber is the only movie that deserves four stars on Letterbox. I love a, I love a sorkin dialogue. Oh, I'd be lying if I said I didn't love a sark and dialogue. What is he in? What is he in? Who, Jeff Daniels? Where he plays that trope.

Well, it's a show called The Newsroom. The show. It's on a movie. You ever see, though, there's a clip that goes viral like every once in a while where Jeff Daniels is like on stage he's doing a panel and someone asks him like why is America the greatest country honor

and he's like we rank 17th in literacy 124th and in like infanticide rate blah blah blah but god damn it we used to be a country we used to be a country

that stood up for morals we used to be a country and now we have what pronouns he doesn't say that but that's sort of the vibe that's the vibe that people post that under you're ending up at an

okay here I thought the newsroom was a fine show. It was a fine show. Not as good as the Western thing, but... Oh. I wish I was less peanut butter, but the flavors are good. I like this a lot more than I thought I would. Jeff Daniels, you're a little freak, but a good kind.

You're a real freaky-dicky. The barbecue sauce, it's a jelly. Exactly. Barbecue sauce is jelly. It's a savory, spiced tomato jelly. Right? Absolutely. That's what we're working with.

That's why this works. And it's nice. It's really great. Good. Where you take barbecue sauce and peanut butter? Dare I say I want more barbecue sauce? I want peanut butter on a barbecue burger now. Pulled pork sandwich with a smear of peanut butter.

I did that. Yeah, right? The chips are really pleasant. The chips are nice in it? Maybe not a pita. Maybe if the pita was warm or something. I end up making a lot of pita sandwiches just out of the fact that I have a lot of leftover pita, mostly because I'm ordering from one of our many wonderful Middle Eastern rotissory chicken spots. Zanku chicken.

But it's not even... I don't even if you think of them. I'm ripping birdies, you know? I love birdies. You have birdies next to you? No, but they deliver. Oh, it's really close to my house. Sorry, you don't need to know that.

But either way, I'm getting a bunch of left-up. A bunch of extra pizzas because they think I'm ordering for, like, you know, a family of eight. Or really, I'm taking down a whole chicken myself. And so I end up making a lot of coincidental pita sandwiches. A lot of, like, breakfast burritos, been inside of a pita. Delicious. Peanut butter, banana wrapped in a pita. That was a really, really, really.

really surprisingly delicious sandwich. Jeff Daniels, you're on to something. Also, loved you in Dumb and Dumber. I just want to hang out with you and ask you all about that role. Did you really do all those poopy noises in Dumb and Dumber? That's my favorite part. You seem inquisitive. I'm trying to think about what would drive a man to make something like this.

Our hero's born or are they made? What other sandwiches we got? We have two more. Now, do you want to eat Harry Styles as sandwiches? I'll give this... Oh, I'll give that a surprising eight. I'll give it a flat eight, too. Flat, air.

This is as good as an Elvis. It's more surprising. It has more dimension than the Elvis. You know what I don't like? Toasted bread. Me too. I didn't like the way that... That was, like, rigid.

Harry Styles sandwich. Now, I can name an Elvis song. I don't think I can name a Harry Style song. What about as it was? Am I going to answer it? As it was. As it was Tyles? Yeah.

I hear that sometimes. Shopping at Zara? Yeah. Yeah. It's a Zah song. That's my only lens into music now. It's a Zah song. It's when I'm like at them all, which is very infrequent.

Or when I'm in the gym and I don't have my headphones in, which is for about two minutes while I'm naked. Yeah, and they're playing, like, a K-Tranata remix of, like, a steely dance song. It's so much little, it's so much Little Dragon. Oh, well, that's good. We like Little Dragon a lot. No, my ex-like Little Dragon a lot. Really?

I thought you, like, well, what are we? If not a culmination of everyone we've ever known. You know what I mean? I'm so sorry you don't like Little Dragon anymore. I love Little Dragon. She took me to see them live at the Santa Barbara Bowl, and we got in, like, a weird fight. I'm so sorry. It's okay.

It's always you guys aren't together anymore, and she's probably really. happy doing whatever she's doing. Hope so. You want to hand me that sandwich, dude? Which one? That one. This is Harry Styles sandwich? This is Harry Styles' sandwich.

What do we know about Harry Styles' personal life and predilections? We don't talk about his personal life and predilections that much because some people say that he's queer baiting all the time? I think in the words of John Marco Sarasi, it's not the worm's fault what kind of fishy hooks. So you're saying he's attractive to everybody? I'm saying Harry styles out there. It doesn't matter. He can do whatever he wants.

He's just bait. He's bait. He could do whatever he wants. That's not his fault. That's not his fault. So this sandwich is a buttered white bread, Branson pickle and cheddar cheese sandwich. We got Branson pickle in here? Hell yeah.

Branson pickle rules. I've always wanted to try Branson pickle. I've no idea what it tastes like. I'm very, very, very, very excited. I'm curious the history of, because use the term, it's funny, like the term pickle with no. S. Yeah, like you want a pickle.

No. Like, side of pickle. Yeah, but like, or like a mango pickle, right? Right. It is a pickled item. Now, this sandwich is strange because we're in the United States of America. I feel like this sandwich is not that strange in like the UK. Yeah, this seems very British.

And now, Harry Sala is British. Uh-huh. Mmm. Dude. I could eat that. Do you know this taste lock? Tell me. This taste like Bribe Brody.

What's that? You put the good chutney inside of the bread, and you put the cheese, and then you toast it, you brai it. Brai means toast. And that's the best brie brodie. Brai means like barbecue. Mm-hmm.

It tastes like a bribe rody, though. I'm really interested. They all feel like a sort of like sweet, sour, apricot chutney kind of thing. Then maybe some chili sauce. Oh, this brants and pickles is wonderful. We need, do we have American? ketchup.

Our relish sucks, dude. Yeah. Ketchup and relish are kind of our pickle slash chutney, and I'm not too jazzed about that. We need to figure out our relish situation because it's not great. I don't know anyone who's very passionate about relish. I could be very passionate about ketchup. I love ketchup. It's a wonderful condiment.

I'm tired of it. I eat ketchup all the time. I really enjoy it. So the vegetables in here. Relish, though. Relish. Nobody who's loving relish? Our relish.

Just normal ass, green, sweet. I like bright green relish sometimes. I like it. I like sweet relish. I think it does the job. What job? Like, would you ever put relish on a sandwich? Maybe, like, a cold cut sandwich?

Like a warm, cold cut sandwich? No, you've never put relish on a warm, cold cut sandwich. Like, if it's like a Rubin situation? Yeah. Why not? No, no, you're putting the relish as a small ingredient in the Russian dressing. No, I'm not. You're putting relish straight on a Rubin?

Maybe I am. You want to lock me up because... Maybe or are you? Yeah, I can see it happening, and I've done it before. You're the best sandwich I've ever had in my life. So the veggies in there are carrots, sweet, onions, and cauliflower. What? The pickled vegetables in there are carrot, sweet, which is a type of parsnip.

Oh. onions and cauliflower. Why is it so brown? Well, that's like the pickling sauce. Sure, but what is it? It just like corn syrup and molasses? Let's see. So I really do love the panoply of dark British spreadable pasts.

Barley malt, vinegar, sugar, tomato puree, apple pulp, date paste, and a blend of spices. That's exactly what I want. Did this stuff exist before the colonization of India? I wouldn't be... Because I'm thinking of, like, India has a wonderful... You get chili pickle, you get mango pickle, all this stuff. not just like Achar, but like really dense, like, oil and salt pickles that are awesome. The pickle was based on the Indian pickles and chutneys that Anglo-Indians had liked during the British Raj.

It was first made in the Cross and Blackwell factory at Branson, Stratfordshire, in 1922. That's exactly what it tastes like. Like, this literally tastes like a well-salted, preserved Indian pickle, but, like, with this kind of like treakily, sweet. wheat, British quality to it. Tricholie is a great word to describe it. It's that really nice punch of cooked vinegar, too, which I always really appreciate. I've always been a cooked vinegar fan. Dude, in Brits, love cooked vinegar.

It's a great flavor. I agree. This is, like, really such a wonderful sandwich. I want to bring back, like, three, four ingredient sandwiches like they do in Britain. Yeah. You did a tea sandwich, dude? I love with a crust cut off. Spreadable cream cheese with some sort of, like, herb and cucumber.

wonderful. The Commonwealth countries do tea sandwich is very, very well. Coronation chicken. I want like butter, bovril, and onion. Yeah. Listen, more spreadable brown pasts 2026. 100%. I love vegemite and marmite. I love all that stuff. Bovril, I would love love to eat some bovril with the spoon. Probably got to get my iron levels checked because of that. Yeah, more brown condiments. Yeah, and like, there's, the guy does like 100 years of sandwiches or whatever. Yes, I actually used his inspiration for Jeff Daniels sandwich. Oh, really?

Yeah, yes, yeah, that's so funny. But, like, you'll go back through cookbooks and it'll be like special pimento surprise sandwich. And the ingredients are just like mayonnaise, pimento, and black pepper. Well, that's what sandwiches were. Yeah, and that's like you would write a cookbook like that. I would make thousands of dollars. I love those bullshit sandwiches are so great, you know? We could probably make a couple hundred bucks.

A couple hundred at least, dude. I unripped this last sandwich. Who's this? This is Will Smith. This is Will Ferrell's sandwich. Now, he answered the question on Stephen Colbert's show, What's at a Sandwich? With this answer, mayo on rye bread with salami and grapefruit.

What? Now, this one, some people are like, this is a joke. Do you think it's a joke? Or do you think he's being serious? It's one of the funniest people in the world. I am a welfare fan. This seems like one of those weird 1930s-era things. Right, it does.

Where, like, they just, hey, maybe grapefruits were new and they didn't know what to do with them. And he says in the video, Stephen Colbert goes, Toasted, no, he goes, doesn't matter. And I think that's part of the allure of this sandwich. It's okay, you've been eating a lot of sandwiches. The colors, the colors are beautiful. The pink from the salami.

The different kind of pink from the grapefruit, the sheen of mayonnaise, and the toasted rye. This is so much worse. Is it bad? No, I ever could have imagined me. It's bad? In such an upsetting way. Oh, so bad. Oh!

I was so ready to defeat. There is some sort of level of, like, noxious, caustic chemical that is being created by the intersection of all these things. I didn't know what this was at first. I thought it was just tomato, and I was pretty. excited. And then upon... And then upon... And then upon learning that it was grapefruit, in my head, I think I sought to justify

it, to say, well, what is grapefruit, if not a tomato-esque fruit that you could put on here? And no, it is mortifying. That's really bad. It's really, really, really bad. You know it? It's the bitterness of the grapefruit that matches with the bitterness of the rye caraway flavor.

That's exactly what it is. It's a double bitter punch. And then even salami, if you use, think about it, has this kind of like moldy bitterness to it in a way? It's more the salami when the salami comes in, it's like the fatty texture mixing with the juiciness of the grapefruit. It's like chocolate-dip strawberries. That's like a bitter grapefruit too.

That's like... It's like chocolate-dipped strawberries, how like strawberries are like juicy and intense and like wet and then the chocolate is like waxy and fatty. I hated that. So it's definitely a joke. I was thinking like, oh. I hope it was a joke. I was like, oh, it's like a charcutory board, like yaddy, la la la.

Ew, Will Ferrell. I was just talking about mayonnaise, bananas, and peanut butter that's really good. Like, there's a shot that this is earnest, something weird. Will Ferrell. Someone's dad did once. You know what I mean? It feels like a Nixon thing. I loved you in stepbrothers.

I hate you right now. This is wrong on so many levels. Wait, so, I'll meet him. You know a movie I just sat down and watched in full by myself a couple weeks ago? Tell me. Kicking and screaming. How was it? Never seen it.

You're seeing it? Will Ferrell is a soccer coach? I know of it, but I never saw it. Prima la carne, meet first. I just told you I didn't see it, and then you quote it. I thought maybe you'd go, oh, yeah, oh, you're so right. Now that you said prima la carne, meet first. Do I do that?

Yeah, well, but. Where do you rank this? One. One. I'll tell you what, though, after you take out the grape. fruit. It's a pretty good sandwich. It's a pretty good. Just like a little accent of juice. A little juice accident.

Ugh, that was pretty, I was so, you don't know, I was, I like conjured up the flavors in my head. I'm like, of course it's going to be delicious. Will Ferrell wouldn't do me like that. Sure. Will Ferrell did me like that. Do me, Will Ferrell. I'm very, do me or do not? There is no try. I'm very unhappy Will Ferrell. What kind of weird sandwich do you want to make, Josh? Tell us. If you could make a weirdo sandwich.

Oh. Probably be a bagel. I don't know if I have one. That's okay. You can, like, riff. I can tell you. I know. I'm trying to think of, I'm trying to think of ones that I've made recently.

I made just the most delightful ham cheddar spicy mayo Dorito sandwich. Or not Doritos, Sunchips sandwich. Oh, sun chips are underrated. Oh, my God. Not enough people are eating sun chips. They're not just for toddlers. I do a lot of tuna. I eat so much tuna.

Nothing weird on it. But my tuna sandwiches aren't odd. They're all pretty one of the mill good. Yeah, me too. It's like Mediterranean style, but I... And if I'm making a weird one, then it's probably for macro reasons. Like Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise. And that's kind of upsetting.

Yeah. If I were to be a weird sandwich, I would do the following. Bagel from the grocery store. String cheese, cut apart, toasted into oblivion, saracha. That would be my weird sandwich. And that would be what I would say. If someone's like, Nicole, what's your weird sandwich?

That would be a weird sandwich. I can take any leftover and turn it into a sandwich. Yeah, you feel comfortable. And that's my superpower. You know? Yeah. That's my superpower. I thought it was being empathetic.

No. Leftover sandwiches. That's really what it is. That's great, Josh. Who wins? Got you this? Yeah. I think Harry Styles wins.

Easy. Because in reality, it's not a weird sandwich. It's just weird to us because we're stupid. Americans. Yeah, there's like articles that'll be like, well, you'll never believe this weird. He puts a thing on it that we don't understand. Yeah. Weird isn't a real word.

Everyone is a little bit weird. My mom used to call me weird since I was like seven. How does that make you feel? Yeah, you're weird. No, weirdness and normalcy is a prison. It's a prison? It's a prison. Prism or prison?

Prison. Like shackles. Like shackles. If somebody calls you weird, it is them trying to control your actions. Yeah. I'm not weird. I'm eccentric. Let's go.

All right, Nicole. Got you. We heard you and I have to say, now it's time find out what other... I'll do it. Josh, we've heard what you and I have to say. Now it's time to find out what other wacky ideas are rattling around in the universe. It's time for a segment. Opinions are like casseroles.

Hi, Nicole. Hi, Josh. Hi. I'm Ethan. I'm calling from South Jersey. You sound like your... Congrats on the baby. Oh, thanks. You sound like you're in a train. And I recently had a revelation. Oh, not a baby? I was at my family's Easter celebration and had a big pot of dirty water hot dogs. Yum. And a big pot of meatballs. Okay. So I made myself a meatball sub.

And I put, like, a hot, de-dine mustard on it. I don't know why, but I did it, and it changed the game. Hell, yeah. So I've been going around and talking on my friends to put hot mustard on your beatball subs, and I've been labeled it as a freak. So, let me know what you think. Have a good week. Bye!

Bye! You better catch that train or subway or wherever you are. It sounds like you're underground. I like it a lot. I like it a lot. What's the last time I had a meatball sub? It's been a minute. It's been a minute.

I don't make them very often. And I can't remember that. I don't know the last time I would have gotten one out. I will say this. A meatball sub on a hot day is exactly what the doctor ordered. Like what is hot outside? And you eat a meatball sub, you feel good. People say, no, it needs to be overcast.

I disagree. Well, the people do say they are saying that a lot about weather conditions for eating meatball subs. Yeah. I can't go a single day without somebody saying it needs to be overcast. I'm telling you. For you to eat a meatball sub. I'm telling you.

Yep. Who's got a meatball sub these days? Like what restaurant other than subway? Couldn't tell you. Couldn't tell you. No, they don't. Jersey mics? Jersey mics?

They have a meatball sub? They have chicken cheese steaks over there. Chicken cheesecake is a good South Jersey, Philly thing. Like they're offered. Yeah, but a chicken cheese steak. Why should just call it a chicken cheese or cheese chicken steak? Chicken steak. Chicken steak is what they call it.

But you should be removed? No. No, because the sandwich is like a steak. It's like a cheese steak. No, no, cheese steak. The steak means there's beef. Yeah, sure. So this should be called cheese chicken?

Cheese chick. Yeah, call it cheese chick. Cheese chick instead of chicken steak. We can do that. I like a chicken steak hoagie. Chicken steak? I don't like. Because chicken steak, hoagie, you add the lettuce, tomato, everything.

Anyways, the mustard. Good idea. Fatty meatballs. Here's the thing. The mariner sauce is the sauce, sure, but the mariner sauce doesn't act as a condiment in a way. Yeah, it doesn't interact with the bread, makes bread goo. But think about ketchup as a condoment versus marinera sauce, right? Or barbecue or something.

Both of those are tomato-based, but they're much, much more heavily flavored than a marina. Okay. You know what I mean? Yes. So this is almost like adding, like, you know, you get people that'll add to smear a pesto, something that's very heavily flavored, very aromatic, to something with red sauce. sauce. That makes sense.

You know, but this, you're just adding like a spicy, uh, caustic mustard component, almost like adding a spicy jar in there to it or something like that. I suggest you try Russian mustard. It's my dad's favorite mustard. He always has a jar next to him because he's allergic to pepper but loves mustard. Um, he puts it on just about everything and it has a really intense, pungent taste that you don't get from regular mustard or hot mustard. Try that next time.

It might knock your socks off. I support that. I support your move entirely. Hey, y'all. So my food hot take is, I think uncrustables are the best when they are slightly frozen. Again, I like it when the jelly is a little bit frozen. So it's sort of like glass. And the peanut butter is nice and hard.

Clock it. Clock it. That's not hard if you can't eat it. Clock it has like a firm. Clocket Back That was a Gen Z

Kiki They go Kikikiki I was laughing I don't know I don't know I want to bow out of all of

You can't Josh You're on YouTube You have to stay relevant You have to speak to the youth You must be the youth How are you doing fellow kids That's literally us I don't know

I know Our audience is so It's in my truck The kids, are the kids even skating anywhere? Does that even make me seem young? I think that makes me seem... I think it makes me seem... I think it makes me seem like a millennial.

I love uncrustables, and anytime I see one, I'll take a bite, then throw the rest away. I think uncrustibles that are a little bit frozen are good. One time I had it, I don't know why this happened. The jelly was thought, but the peanut butter stayed relatively puckish. And I like that, too. So the freezing component doesn't matter if the jelly stays kind of, you know, mucosol or if like the peanut butter stays solid.

It's a good eating experience altogether. And I'm proud of you for letting us know. Use the word puckish. Puckish. Puck like. Puckish means I think, um... Oh no. No, no.

It's a really cute word. I think puckish is like, it's kind of like a small, cute, mercurial, slightly like mischievous. You want to know why because of puck. from the Shakespearean play Midsummer Night's Dream Never met Never never read to Shakespeare Ever?

Othella It's the only one I read Oh I know one of those weird gaps In my knowledge Can't name a Harry Siles song Never read a Shakespeare What does puckish mean

What does puck I googled it I googled it Silly and I did a midsummer night's dream In school Puck is like the like elvish person

That's kind of narrating What is the gender of Puck? I don't think they have a gender Put mythological character Is a mischious Oh, Puck isn't a human? No

Oh, wait wait wait wait wait wait Shakespeare had like non-human Yes Is Peter Pan like a human? Shakespeare didn't write Peter Pan Also Peter Pan is human Like pseudo

He's like kind of Peter Pan is kind of human I've never seen Peter Pan Have you seen AI artificial intelligence No, never seen Hook. Never seen... I saw the A little bit of the live stage show

with Brian, what's her name? Something, Alison Williams. Okay. I like that. Okay, so like I was like, Puck is kind of like, it's a character and like, they're just like letting you know what's going on

and like doing little silly things to the characters. Like, kind of mischievous. Yes, Puckish. It's from this. From a Mitzummer Night's Dream. Nice. I don't like an... Inquestibles. And let me explain to you why. Because peanut butter and jelly, it's among the easiest of foods to make. It's one of the easiest. The ingredients are right there in the name. If you get confused, you should just add and bread, peanut butter and jelly and bread, and that's it. And I think a homemade PB&J is so much better than an uncrustable. I think the uncrustable, I think the peanut butter is like weirdly kind of hard and the jellies just weirdly

kind of wet, and the bread's all is a little bit stale. So I would agree with you that it's better when it's frozen because that removes it even farther from a PBNJ. But I think just a white bread, cheap peanut butter, cheap jelly sandwich is like one of the better tasting things in the world. And I think the uncrustable misses the mark. I understand that I'm in the minority on this. That's fine.

I'll be rogue and puckish. You should like watch a Midsummer Night's dream. I was at a bar and people were doing Shakespeare at me. I don't think you should do that. Yeah, you did. We don't need to talk about it. I don't like it. You should go to like a real play.

I went to pee and drink a beer. That's what I'm supposed to do in a bar. You need to go to like a real performance of a Midsummer Night's Dream and watch. It's actually very good. I enjoyed it. When I was a kid, I enjoyed it. Me and Julia have too much time because we can cut berries and make whipped cream. You think we're going to a plays?

Instead of make love. Instead of make love. And now you want us to go to a play instead of making love? Why don't you go to the play? instead of cutting the berries and making it whipped cream. Yeah, I guess. Yeah. You should consider it.

Go watch a Shakespeare. You're such an educated smart man. You haven't seen the Shakespeare? No, none. Do it now. It's never too late to fall in love of the works of William Shakespeare. I guess.

I loved Shakespeare growing up. Yeah? When I used to read. I loved it. Then I stopped because I don't read anymore. Yeah, what are you doing instead of reading? Just focusing on some other things. right now. Like what?

Next to be it. Hey Josh and Nicole. I hope you guys are having a lovely day. My name is Alden. Been a fan for a long time. So my wife and I, we bought a pie from a lady who makes pies and sells them at the farmer's market. Good for you. We got at home, took a bite, and realized the inside was store-bought pie filling. Very jelly donut-like. The crust was almost certainly not homemade either. She didn't actually falsely advertised, but to me this kind of betrays the point of selling like $25 pies at the farmer's market.

But I wanted to hear what you guys think about this. Publix probably could have sold me the same pie for about $12. So like is this kind of sketch or is that okay by your guys's thoughts? Thanks. I appreciate everything you do. I hope your day gets better than that pie. You got scammed. This is really funny, and I started thinking about this a lot because, okay, you ever go to some resort-ish destination in another country, and you go to, like, there's a kind of little street vendor market, and they're all just, like, making the same beaded bracelets.

You see the same wares, and you can tell that they're coming, and they'll say handmade, whatever. You know, they're coming from some factory into that country, and then being distributed. Right. That's fine. the notorious trinkets, I think, not I think, that same relationship exists for farmers markets where they'll be something, it'll be like, Pierre's, Pierre's artisan-made French pastries or French bread or whatever. And you're like, okay, this kind of looks cute and homemade, whatever. And then you'll see it at like, not only every farmer's market in the area, but I'll go down to

San Diego and there'll be the same thing. No way. And so they're kind of, yeah, they're like. Operating under different names. They're like not even different names. They're like the same name. Well, that's okay. You can't be everywhere at once. And so it's you, it conjures this image of just like, oh, it's a cute little quaint farmer's market. There's an old Frenchman in Pierre and he's making his own croissant or whatever.

When in actuality, and maybe that's how it started, but it's a factory. So the food person in me says that's like really wrong and I'm really sorry that you got taken advantage of. The hustler in me is like. Don't hate the player, hit the game. I was about to say, like, you got got, sorry. It sucks. But, you know, this person is trying to turn a profit, clearly. They're getting probably, like, a big, like, cambro filled of, like, all-purpose jelly feeling from smart and final.

And they're getting, like, pre-sheeted, like, pastry with the tins already lined and, like, par baked. And they're just trying to make a dollar maybe. And unfortunately, you were part of that game. And you got got, and I'm very sorry. It happens to the best of us. But it's nothing sacred anymore, Nicole. Shouldn't, and I believe this. And I'm sorry.

A farmer's market should be sacred. Farmers markets should be sacred. That is the last place that we can shop and even feel a little bit good about it. You know what I mean? I like all to sprouts. I like what a sprouts and I feel joy in sprouts. I love our many Kroger partner family stores. Yeah.

You know? Yeah, I find joy when I go around. But there's still, no, I genuinely do. But like, but a farmer's market, there's something, when you go to a farmer's market, you assume, I want to be fooled, I want to believe in something. So that's your parochial. You know what I mean?

This person also wanted to believe in something. And you know what they got? They wanted fresh strawberries cut up with an all butter dough. You know what they got? Jelly filling and Crisco. And that's, listen, it's like that, it's like the ending line from the Goodfellas. my marinera and noodles

turned into eggs and ketchup or whatever you know he says? No, I've never seen that movie Josh! I don't watch Mafia movie No Shakespeare, no Mafia movies, no Disney movies You've never seen... You must evolve as a man.

I know, I know a lot about other stuff. You need to... You have never seen a single Disney movie? Not any of like the classic ones. Can you please watch Fox and the Hound and get back to me? Okay, people are sexually attracted to the fox in that? Or is that...

No. There's a... There's a Fox. No, not that one. There's like a classic Disney fox that people say it was like their bisexual awakening. Bambi? Maybe look up bisexual fox. Maybe the mom of...

Was there a fox version of Robin Hood? Was there an anime or Robin Hood where he was a fox? There was. I think that's what people are sexually attracted to. Well, this has anything to do with friendship, nothing to do with sexy foxes. Okay. Well, back to the commerce market thing. What do you want?

The world is fake sometimes. Sure. If you were somebody who gave Hock to a girl... money for her Haktua coin. I'm like, yeah, you deserve to get scammed. Hello, you're a fool. But, and also, she maybe deserved to scam people in a weird way.

She also deserved the trouble she got in. But, like, she had no business. We made her famous for nothing. But if you are somebody who opened this stall at a farmer's market, one, that's not the best way to, that's not the most efficient way to, like, scam people is to sell pies with substandard ingredients.

If you're opening up a booth at a farmer's market, there's some sort of implication that you're doing it out of love of the game. And like, this is the transaction you make. When you go to a farmer's market and you give somebody $25 for a pie, I think there's a reasonable expectation that that will be homemade with love. And I think you got duped. And now all you can do is never give that person your money again and hope that the market corrects itself.

Sometimes in life you get screwed over by the choices you make. And that's okay. That happens sometimes. that doesn't mean you're a bad person. That doesn't mean that you're a stupid person. Sometimes it happens to everybody in the universe. Sometimes with small things like a pie, sometimes big things like lending family members

hundreds of thousands of dollars and then not seeing it anymore. And similarly, like, you should have a reasonable expectation for family members to pay money back. That's reasonable, but is everyone reasonable? No. So like you go to a farmer's market,

you should have a reasonable expectation that this is a homemade pie. But not everyone is reasonable. Sometimes, you know what's so funny, it's just both my parents. were the ones that didn't pay family members back. So you're not going to do anything about it now. What you can do is, you know what?

The best thing you can do now, learn how to make a pie. Also, I want to like fully vindicate you. I want to fully vindicate you that your feelings are real and valid. Yeah, yes. Very, very. You know what I mean? Listen, we've all been there one way or another where we crack into the pie and it's not what we anticipated,

but it's our job to not let that define us as people and define our experiences going forward. And so what we can do now is you send us the name of this pie vendor and we're going to plaster it on our screen right now and then we're going to send thousands of people to review bomb them. No, we don't do that. Do it. Come on. Do it.

But I love how in depth we got regarding that subject. That was a good one. That was really good. That's what we live for. Thank you. That was a really, really good opinion. Well, it's about that time, Nicole. Do you see the sexy fox? Logan, thank you for showing us the sexy fox. It's Robin Hood.

It is Robin Hood. It's Robin Hood. And it's a fox. He's a fox. He's a fox. I thought Robin Hood was a man. That too. A little bit of both. They made a... I'm sorry. A podcast.

We have it. You're watching it. You're listening to it right now. You can keep doing that on Wednesdays is when it's the freshest right out of the oven. So you can do that. Are you talking about this Fox? The mom from Fox and the Hound? I mean, she...

I'm sorry, she's not the mom. She's Tom's love interest. Is this what you mean? No, I'm talking about the fox from Robin Hood. You googled Fox Robin Hood? I said fox from hound. You googled foxhound mom thick. Nicole, did you Google, did you Google Robin Hood Fox? Yeah, I did.

He has a hat. He has a hat and jaunty little shirt. Oh, you're talking about this fox? Yeah, he's kind of got fedora guy energy. He's charming.
