This is a headgum podcast. New inventions have made such a consequential impact on human history as the horseshoe. Before shoeing, a practice generally believed to have begun in mass in the 10th century CE, workhorses would fatigue and suffer split hooves from overuse on uneven terrain. The advent of shoeing vastly increased the productivity and endurance of horses used for agriculture and travel, directly leading to the vast growth of civilization. According to Irish folklore, the very devil himself once approached the blacksmith, Saint Dunstan, and demanded he shoe his hooved feet.

The clever Saint Dunstan outsmarted the tricky devil by taking searing hot horseshoes straight out of the forge and hammering them into his tender hooves. And though Satan may make his home in a lake of fire, the devil found the experience so painful he vowed to never wear shoes again. The horseshoe became a way to ward off evil spirits and a symbol of good luck. And so, in 1952, when Charlie Doe founded the first of his restaurants on State Street in Boston at a numerical address that gave the eatery his name, his wife gifted him a horseshoe quote to hold the good luck in.

A classic bar and grill setting serving an array of American favorites, including its beloved gold fever wings, the horseshoe would become as much a part of its brand identity as McDonald's Golden Arches or Taco Bell's Bell, and over the decades the chain would expand throughout the greater Boston area and then all of New England. Charlie Doe passed away in 2006, but the good luck granted by his wife's horseshoe has endured, and today there are over 100 regional locations of the place named 99. This week on Doe Boys, 99 restaurant. Thank you.

What's up Boston? Welcome to Doe Boys Live! Guys, we got another show. I don't know, I just said another show for you tonight. We've got a great show for you tonight. It's not just another one. It'll hopefully be good. But before we go any further, this week's roast is courtesy of Bill M. Let me introduce my co-host, Patriots legend Antonio Brownie, the Spoon Man, Mike Mitchell! What's up Boston? I brought Munchkins to win them over.

There's 50, so split them up 40 ways each. Munchkins, the Dunkin Donuts, what they Dunkin calls donut holes, yes? Yes, 2,000 I was wrong. 20 times each. How many people are here? 1,000 people. I was doing the math in my head. I don't think there's that many people here. No, it's looking light today. It's tough when your counter-programming is the first Patriots game of the year. Right.

It was weird seeing you do your thing because it looked like church when I walked out. And you were like, the devil shall not win. It was just bizarre. I didn't catch the whole thing. You were talking about the devil. It was very weird. That's what it is. That's what it generally is. Also the stool sale out here. Let me fix this station. I got this fucking thing out of here. Okay, here we go. Emma's taking the stool away. Thank you, Emma.

Thank you, Emma. Wait, Emma, come back. Come back. Emma's done a great job, Alter, and her mom and dad are here tonight, so I want to... Thank you, Emma. Hi, Mom. Hi, Dad. Sorry I did this to you. I had no idea this was happening. How are you feeling? Because you sang before the show said,

guys, just a heads up, I'm having trouble standing. I put him in a suitcase right after that. He fits in the merch suitcase. I'm good. I'm pretty excited to sleep. Yes, us too. And eat some vegetables. Yeah, this feels like a villain's origin story. Right.

Like this last day, I feel insane from eating fast food for how many days straight? We've been eating nothing but trash for six days straight. You only feel insane today? No, I felt insane though, but today is like my breaking point. This has been like Doe Boy's scared straight. It was a true test. Yeah, but Emma, thank you so much for everything you've done for us. Thank you, guys. It's been a good time.

Thanks to your parents. Oh, yeah. For being here tonight. It's been a good time. Enjoy the rest of the show. Oh, also. Emma, break everyone. Hello, Wilbur. That's a Mr. Ed reference.

Daniel sold me that joke. This is true. He's like, what about hello? I was like, I'll do it because I will bomb with it. It went over pretty well. It went over pretty good. How much did you pay Dano for it? Nothing yet.

You owe him? I owe him. Venrom him five bucks. Five bucks? That's too much. Wasn't that good of a joke? Mitch, we want to make a quick announcement related to merch. Yeah. So we still have some shirts.

Most of our tour shirts are gone, but we have two larges remaining and plenty of mediums and smalls. So infer what you will about the Doughboys demographic. You song. Everyone's my size. No, no, no. They're my size. No, they're not that big, but they're big.

Nick and more family in the audience tonight. Yes. Who you got out there? Yeah. Auntie Doris, Uncle Bill. I saw my cousin, Lauren, when I was first coming in. My cousin Colleen, Auntie Kathy. I didn't give a shout out to Stocky last night.

There's a lot of people here. We didn't give a shout out. I talked to Caroline at the bar last night. I've already given Caroline a shout out. Shout out to Caroline if she's here or if she's listening. There's a lot of people. And here's another thing. Last night in the top section.

Yes. Someone fucking barfed. Is anyone, was anyone here last night who witnessed the projectile vomiting that took place on the balcony? Applaud if you were. Wow. We have a few survivors here. What happened?

What happened? Online, they blamed the Quincy guys. It wasn't the Quincy guys. It wasn't the Quincy guys. Although, Dano showed me another post that implicated the Quincy guys for loudly farting during the show. And that wasn't them either. That wasn't them?

No. They're not monsters. I saw Chankton's parents outside too. Wow. How about that? The whole crew's here. We went out with a lot of the crew. The show last night started.

In general, who was here for the show last night? By applause. That show was better than this one's going to be. What are you doing? It's the last show. The last show is going to get zany and fun. Yeah, I guess so. I say we, but I mean me.

I got fucking trash last night. We didn't even have that much time to do it. We didn't have that much time. I was just chugging drinks that were being handed to me. I had a cider. I had two ciders. And then I saw you outside of the bar. Yeah.

I could go back and go to the hotel. I was like, what the fuck? I felt so... It was the drunkest I've been in so long. I was slurring my speech. I called you a fool in front of everyone. You were right to do so. I couldn't form words.

And then I was getting mad at myself for not being able to do it. And I was like, this is what it's like to be Mitch. I have family here. Be nice. I met a lot of them. They're lovely people. Yeah. They didn't like you.

I was at a... Mitch, I went so... It was very hungover. Went to Dunkin' Donuts this morning. Yeah. And... Though I offered you to visit the original Dunkin' Donuts today, and you couldn't do it.

It was a time crunch. No, it wasn't. You had plenty of time. There's no way I would trust you on time. There's no way it would have worked out. I made it to the venue at ten minutes before show, before our original showtime. We got pushed back a little bit.

And that was with me not going to Dunkin' Donuts. It was like there's no way it would have worked out. All right, fine. Go on with your boring story. Now I don't want to. I was at the Dunkin' Donuts this morning, not the original, just the one that was near our hotel. And I saw this woman who was so fucking pissed off.

That's right. She was so mad. And all I could glean was that it was... She wanted a hot drink, and they started preparing the cold version of the drink. And she saw them take out a cup of ice, and she literally started pounding her hands on the counter, and went, no, no, no.

Like so mad. And then they were like, they were like, what, sorry, did you want the hot one? And then she just like made the meanest face and just pointed at the sign, like that said like hot. Like she was just pointed at like one of the hot drinks, like scowled. I was like, what the hell are you doing?

I couldn't believe how enraged she was. There was one sign that said hot, and one sign that said cold? No, I don't mean like... This is slanderous Boston bullshit. I don't mean it was a sign that said hot. It was like a sign... She pointed at the drink she wanted.

I said it in an elegant fashion. All right. But yeah, it was like crazy how pissed off she was. I told you that she probably came to the show last night. She's mad about it. Oh, how did... Oh my God, Jesus. Guys, my voice is gone.

It's insane. Yeah. How did... Oh, boy. Wow. It's a spoon nation. That's bad. This is the first time I've...

I didn't forget to play a drop. Seven shows. Oh, Emma did text me to do it. Okay. Seven out of eight shows you forgot, but you finally got it right. Emma, hit him with a little drop, please. While I was waiting for you in the shower,

I sat in your new couch, and I farted on your new couch. What the fuck? You ripped the... You ripped... You're the first person to rip ass on my new couch. You sick fuck. I didn't mean...

I laid my head there. And you're fucking shit particles. I hate these. I hate drops. No, I hate them. I hate the podcast. I'm ready for it to end today, Yikes. We're on the same page on all of these points.

Who sent that one in, Mitch? Shampooedler. Oh, Shampooedler. No context in the... There was just nothing, not even a hello. She gets some new blood in the drop game. I did not plan that that way, because there was some weirdo farting

in the audience last night. Oh, right, yeah. Everyone out there, don't do it. Yeah, I don't know... The Doughboys, we have to tell people who come to our shows not to fart. People are fucking farting like fucking animals? Jesus Christ.

And don't projectile vomit. They cleared out a whole section. What the fucking... There's just monstrous behavior. Is this what our fan base is like? Yes. Just like puking, farting, like animals? Honestly...

Don't cheer that. The world would be a better place than the inclorious bastards to this whole fucking theater. Put locks on the doors. Just fucking light this place up. I'm sorry. I have family in here.

The Doughboys logo that's on the screen just gets replaced by U-Song just like scowling at us, laughing. Yeah. Should we introduce our guests? Yes. I think that time has come. This is a very exciting one.

This is very, very exciting. Our first guest is a union man right here in Boston Mass. He's also a graduate of North Quincy High. Make some noise for Dano! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Wow! Wow! Wow! Dano, give us some context for this hat you're wearing. All right, John Hodgman and me fell in love last night. Guys, unbelievable.

I hugged him. He gave me some good advice for today. Hodgman did our show last night and then he symbolically took off his own hat and then put it on your head and you took your hat for himself, your Detroit Tigers hat. Yep, that's right.

And now I forget all his advice because this is the scariest thing in my life. Fucking terrifying. I think your first show should be in front of a thousand people. Yeah. All right. Way scarier than D.T. and Rita's wedding.

You are the best man. That's probably the biggest crowd. I was the efficient. We're thrilled to have you. Mitch and I have bombed dozens of shows and it's fine. You're just going to join us in bombing. Yeah. Hodgman basically just said to you

not to be a coward pretty much, right? Those are his words, yeah. Don't be scared. So don't make him scared. Why are they three feet away from us? Jesus Christ. I don't know. Is there any special on stage tickets?

It's like the reverse splash zone. If you don't want to be puked on, you have to pay more to be further away from the projectile vomitors. And Mitch, are we going? It's just disgusting. It's foul. It wasn't the Quincy guys.

It was Foxton. It was Foxton. Definitely Foxton. Just fucking threw up everywhere. That was like the last night. It was like the Doughboys equivalent of the Malice in the Palace. That fight that went up into the stands.

That's right. Yeah, I feel ashamed of it. Yeah, me too. I like the podcast as a whole. It's disgusting. Yeah, I generally feel ashamed from the podcast, but I felt ashamed in a different way. Mitch, our next guest,

an actor and comedian from Nailed It and the podcast Best Friends and Why Won't You Date Me? Welcome back to the stage and cool. Bye. Yeah. Oh, boy. Oh, what a treat.

We're back. I feel like I'm a die. Oh. That took so much energy. Those 10 steps and wiggling my ass for half a second. My God, I drank so much last night for no reason.

Yeah. It was like, they're like, we're closing soon. I was like, well, give me a bottle. I'll take it. And I did. You hung strong last night. Yeah. You did not sound like Nick when you left the bar.

No, you were so funny. I was like, do you want to go with me in the lift? And you're like, yes. And you were trying to say something other than yes, but then gave up and just said yes. It was very funny. That was the right move.

I mean, I needed to get back. Yeah, for sure. I felt so late. Is it just being in Boston? Is that what it is? Is that the impulse? Yes, yes. Blame Boston for your alcoholism, Nick.

Wait, Nick. Before you go any further. There's one last special guest. Oh, interesting. And he too is coming in through video. It's a little video message. Your attention to the big screen. We can maybe lower the lights a little bit.

Here we go. Okay, here we go. Yeah, it worked right away. Wow. Hey, Nick, it's Karim. Mike wanted me to congratulate you for finishing the Doughboy tour. It took four days, huh?

Hey, I was on the road for 20 years in the NBA. So don't complain about that. You know, Spoonman, you know, gives you all these ribs about the Lakers and the Celtics. You know, he's stuck with being a Celtics fan, but he's an okay guy. Congratulations.

I hope you guys have fun, continue to have fun, and be well. Wow. I made the last one nice. Karim Abdul-Jabbar, my favorite Laker of all time. That's amazing.

I'm an American Union member. Karim Abdul-Jabbar. God, you put the boring thing last. One of my favorite Lakers of all time, we go to the same post office together. What? I like that the all-time leading scorer in NBA history

is also a nerd. I can relate to him. Wait, because you think you're good at something? No, I'm not good at something. I'm not good at nothing. I'm good at some things. We'll figure out what that is someday. You're pretty good at getting drunk, I saw last night.

Yeah, Jesus Christ. You're such a happy drug. It's a real joy to watch. You just have this smile and your eyes are gone. Like, it's just... I don't know where you went, but you're so happy. It would be like if you worked in a mental hospital,

you'd be their favorite patient. Maybe that's why I crave the sauce. Every time I feel true joy, I just don't know it. Uh-oh. I got some stuff to work on. Hey, uh... But, Mitch,

you're not the only one with a cameo tonight. Oh, really? I've got a little video for you. Let's go ahead and play that if we can. Wow, wow. Hi, Mike. It's your mom.

I'm so happy that you're back home in Quincy, that I'm cooking up your favorite dish, oven fries. And I've just turned the heat up to make sure they're crispier. It's 450. And...

Oh, no peeking. Ha-ha-ha. Ha-ha-ha. Ha-ha-ha. Ha-ha-ha. Ha-ha-ha. Ha-ha-ha. Ha-ha-ha.

Ha-ha-ha. Ha-ha-ha. That was good. Ha-ha-ha. Were you in my house, you creep? Ha-ha-ha. Ha-ha-ha. Wow.

You made my mom do more work for this podcast. Ha-ha-ha. She was great. She was awesome. I love you, Ma. Big hand for Mrs. Mitchell. Ha-ha-ha. She was...

She was very nervous about how that would play and I told her that everyone would love it and everyone didn't. It was better than Karim's video. Yeah, Karim was a little creepy. Ha-ha-ha. I had a 14-foot Karim Abdul-Jababah and my head was like a nightmare.

Ha-ha-ha. She wears handswear the whole time? Ha-ha-ha. Anyone else notice that? He wasn't doing anything weird. I don't know. Karim beat Karim. What?

My mom's name is Karim. You said Karim beat Karim? No, no one can understand me because of my throat. No. Eh. Karim's video beat Karim's video. Mitch.

My God. Do you need, like, a tea or... You know, Emma had some tea that she was going to make for me before the show. I don't do that. No, it was my fault. I didn't get here in time. I went upstairs and sat on the toilet for, like, 45 minutes. I thought you were blaming her.

Terrible bathrooms upstairs, by the way. The doors don't fully close in the bathrooms. I know. Which is... Nick was into it. Ha-ha-ha. Oh, no. I hope no one walks in. Ha-ha-ha. Ha-ha-ha. Uh, Dano, since you're here,

I want to talk a little bit about what it was like. You've been friends with Mitch for how long now? How long have you known him? How old are we? Probably... We've been friends for, like, 15 years, probably. Wow. And you guys originally met in high school, was it?

Yep. We knew each other in high school. We knew each other in high school and became friends after high school. That's right. What was the context for your first meeting or your first time you made a friendship connection? Why are you asking this? You interested in this? Yeah, I want to know. All right.

I was in his kitchen. I was hanging out with a group of friends with his younger sister. I knew his younger sister. And I was drinking a beer, and then they told him that I could drink a beer faster than him. And Dano came in and was on a date. And he was like, he can't drink a beer faster than me.

That's not what happened. Basically... You're like, please, drink a beer with me in the kitchen. I was like, all right, Tubby, let's do it. And I whooped your monkey ass. He was supposed to be a fast drinker. You were on a date, though. That's not wrong. You took time off of your date

to have a beer drinking contest. Yeah, I had, like, saved him Private Ryan from fucking blockbuster video onto my arm. It was, like, 1994. Wait, that's what you were going to watch on your date? Yeah.

Nothing floods the basement like that Omaha beach scene. She's like, oh, all these dead men. I've got to suck a dick. It worked. Sorry, Katelyn. He's current girlfriends in the audience tonight. Yeah. My former girlfriends in the audience tonight.

So you guys were... You guys knew each other back in the day. A friendship forged on a drinking contest. And then you... What is your... Dano, do you have any particular memories of... I have a question for you.

Can you tell a story about a time you met a human friend? Because at the 99 restaurant today, this happens with Nick all the time, a guy came up to him. What was his name again, Nick? Ryan. Ryan what?

Lambert. At Two Line Pass. So Ryan came up to him and said, hey, I'm Nick's friend. And I said, oh, we're internet friends. And every person I've ever met of you who's your friend is an internet friend. Yeah, I like to meet people online.

What's wrong with that? Have you ever met a friend through flesh and blood? Through handshakes and... Yeah, have you ever met a friend through a handshake? What the fuck? Wanna be my friend?

Let's seal the deal with this handshake. You have a lot of internet friends. I do have a lot of internet friends. I've met people, I've made friends in person, including the co-host of my podcast I thought. We met online. You know what?

I'm thinking about it. We did meet. We went on MySpace back in the day. No, I mean, I don't know. I'm like, I fucking work a desk job essentially, and I interact with people through screens a lot of the times. And then you end up meeting them IRL. I think that's a normal interaction

in 2019. You did say to him, this is our first time eating IRL. Yes, they use the acronym IRL sometimes allowed to save time. It's fine. Well, LOL to that. Now I'm comfortable with this conversation.

So you guys met back in the day and you spent some time with Mitch, any particular memories, especially eating associated memories with Mike Mitchell? We drink and then we sit in a drive-thru

and talk about life for about four hours. Every time we pull up to the... Wait, you sit in a drive-thru for four hours? We get enough food to eat for four hours. This is Dano's Wendy's order.

Me and Dano have been to Wendy's and we've gotten $50 worth of food, the two of us. Wow. The person at the window is always like, oh, here comes a family. And then it's just two guys. We're kind of a family. And then we basically eat burgers.

I eat the burgers. I try to finish it in the car. I hide it from my mom when I get home. He does. Corinne, he eats a lot of fast food. Corinne, it's Corinne. I feel like that's right. Corinne will talk later. I'll tell you something. She knows he eats a lot of fast food.

That wasn't revealed to her. She knows. A mother always knows. Also, she has eyes. She knows. I'm her little skinny boy. Do you think she looks at pictures of you as a young kid and just cries?

You were fucking gorgeous. I was. I was a monster. I was a gorgeous little baby. Oh, it's crazy. Beautiful baby. I've never shown you a picture wager because I don't want you to take that mental snapshot.

You creep. I have seen Little Mitch. You were a skinny little toe-headed chap. A very cute kid. Is that a slur? What's toe-headed? It's a term for blonde. I mean, it might be a slur.

Canceled. Not on in Boston. Let me start it on that. Why do you act like you're from 1930 a lot of the time? I let old toe-headed chap. Here's a hoop and a stick. You were said about me using

old-timey verbiage. You're upset about me interacting with people online. I love you. It's the last day of the tour. We should be excited. I'm having fun. You're going to London tomorrow. I am, yes. That's bad.

Don't you think you should cancel it and stay in Boston for the week? I have a pre-planned vacation with my wife that I've told you about. She'd be happy to go alone. I'm telling you. So you guys spent a lot of time your friendship is based on a lot of fast food consumption.

Do you have any favorite restaurants outside of Wendy's? Any favorite local spots as well? Local hangs? Nope. McDonald's and Wendy's. Every single time. The Fat Cats in Quincy, I love the Fat Cat. Oh, yeah. We've never ate at the Fat Cat together, though. I guess you and I have never ate at the Fat Cat together.

I ate at the Fat Cat with you. We had a lovely time. That's right. It is unbelievable. Don't go tonight, but go some other time. Now, leave right now and go to the Fat Cat. Other local fast food? No, it mostly is Wendy's at McDonald's.

There's a 24-hour McDonald's across from North Quincy High School, where we went to high school. There's someone who loves it. It's the best one in America. It's been tested. It's number one in the test. It is a really good one.

You're so defensive about Quincy that earlier today I was asking, because I was going to take my lovely wife, who's here in the city, as we mentioned, allegedly for a Manny Patty. Yeah, truly, allegedly. Haven't seen her. No one has seen Natalie.

She's been here for two days. She doesn't want to come to the shows. She's been on the list both nights and was like, I probably won't make it. No show both nights? Yeah. Wow. So I was looking for a Manny Patty recommendation,

and Emma recommended a place in walking distance. What's the garden called? The Boston Public Garden? You walk through the public garden, and then it steps away, and Mitch was like, you should go to a place in Quincy. It'll be better.

You're going to get a Manny Patty. It's going to be better than Quincy, I'm telling you. It's going to be deeper and better. Am I wrong? They were pretty slow to co-sign this. Such tepid applause for that. I don't know. It's getting very specific here. Did you get a Manny Patty?

No, but I'm gonna. Oh, good. I mean, I might. You should. I think I will. Why not? I'm going to treat myself. Yes, men should do that. I've done it before. I love it. I love the experience. Have you done it? Have you done it? I've done it before. No. The face you made. You'll really enjoy it.

You'll clean in his feet or whatever they do. Fucking pedicure. You'll like it. Shortly after my father passed away, my aunt, Masha, took me for a pedicure. Oh, that's nice. And I completely forgot all about my dad. He did the trick.

You're like, Daddy, who? Checkmark. Your father must have been so proud watching you get your little feet scrubbed. Oh, shit. Sorry, I moved the whole table. Oh, for fuck's sakes, man. That was my dad. Don't sound real, Mike.

So, you guys have been to... You've spent a lot of time with Wendy's and McDonald's. How about the restaurant that we are reviewing today, 99 Restaurant? Have you been there together before? No. No, wow. Only McDonald's and Wendy's. You've both been there.

You've both been to 99 Restaurant a number of times in the past. No. I have a confession to make. I've never been to the 99 Restaurant. Wow. That's right. Sorry, everyone. I also have never been to the 99

until today. Nicole, have you ever been? Hell no. I had never heard of it until you were like, this is where we're going. And I was like, wait, what the fuck is this? And it's a chain just here in Boston? Or in Massachusetts?

It's in all of New England, but mostly in Massachusetts. Yeah, there's a 99... There's one of those... 99 something. I can't remember exactly what it's called on the west coast, but it's a Chinese restaurant that's seafood focused. So that's what I assumed it was. It's not that. This is like an Applebee's.

No, it's not. Wow. It's a chain to fucking Applebee's. This place. Well, it opened in... It opened in 1952. We're four first timers. We waited a little bit for a Booth of Seven,

because we had a couple other guests, Mitch, with us. That's right. L.D. and Ramadi came with. And so, and Emma was there as well. So we all sat down and... Sorry. We had a lot of pizzazz that happened at about the midpoint of our meal that really I've never seen before

as much as I've eaten in chain restaurants. We were sitting in a booth, like a cramped booth. Kind of cramped. And a server comes by on the other side and is like, hey, do you want me to take this wall out so you have more room? And we're like, sure, yeah. And then remove the divider between that

and made one booth into... like two booths into one long booth. It was amazing. It was super simple, but we were all like, wow. And I stand by it. I'm still pretty floored. That was the best part of that restaurant. That was by far the best part of that restaurant.

It was a cool trick. I agree. It was very cool. I immediately sat on the other side of the table. I sat right... this made me sit right next to you, Nick. Yeah, it worked out well. See, I like you. The place was... I like you too. Yeah, we're friends.

This is a lot. Last night you were in love and now tonight you're like, I like you. And then tomorrow you'll be like, I tolerate you. And then two days from now you'll kill each other. We've got another highlight of our experience. Our server, Melissa, was great. She was a delight. She was very helpful

and with her recommendations and just a very conscious of checking up on us a bunch. 99 was pretty... We went today. It was Sunday as of this show with Slash Recording. And I guess it's the first day of the NFL season. It's...

You guess it's the first day of the NFL season. The first NFL Sunday. I don't know... I don't follow the NFL. I postulate today maybe the start of the season, my friends. All right, sorry. There seems to be caps and banners in the air and people are having a joyous time. Caps and banners in the air.

There are a lot of caps in the air, right? Oh, fuck this image. A lot of caps, comma, and banners in the air. Oh, no, I get it. There was a comma. I didn't have to say the comma. No, I want you to say the comma. Today is the start of the NFL season.

Yes, I didn't know... I'm sorry for throwing in, I guess, instead of just saying it declaratively. I should have said it declaratively. I don't know why you had to fucking roast me for that. Except your apology. The Patriots play at 8.15 tonight. We have to wrap up the show. We're doing fine. We're fine on time.

I think we should wrap it up right now. We gotta talk about our meal. We gave them, like, a laugh or two. That's speech error. No one threw up. That's a win. Well, we're not sure. We didn't know until after the show. Yeah, we didn't know. Wait, so people were here last night who saw the vomiting, right?

So what happened? Did this person puke on people? Yes. Yes, he did. He projected on vomiting. Why did you answer? Because I've heard. There's a person saying they didn't. Did anyone get puked on? You got puked on?

Someone got puked on. Oh, my God. Wait, someone did get puked on? Someone said they're saying no. A little bit of a splash there. You get the munchkins, ma'am. Someone got thrown up on here? No?

No, she said no. There was just a splash sound. What? It was everywhere. Jesus Christ. Dang. It was what? Four rows of slashes. What did the fella look like?

Yeah, what did he look like? Did he have ironic facial hair? Was he black? Was he right? Was he drinking a half blue ribbon? Well, they said... I knew no one from Quincy threw up. They can hold their liquor, Nick. Like an absolute degenerate.

When I told you that people got thrown up on, I wish it was me. I deserve it. Oh, my God. So, for a beverage, let's start with drinks. I got the strawberry fresh fruit. The reason I brought up Net of Hell Sunday

is because the place was hop and it was packed. I had a strawberry fresh fruit margarita, which I went with pretty much with Melissa's recommendations down the line. It was a nice seasonal drink. Very, very sweet as I've come to expect from these chain restaurants. Cocktails, but super-duper sweet.

A lot of fresh strawberries inside of it, which was nice. It was a little tough to suck through the straw, but it was a pretty fun, Bev. The strawberry pieces got jammed in the straw. My question with you is, like, is it intentional? I just don't know if it's intentional. Because if it's intentional,

I think you're, like, a genius. But if it's unintentional, then I think that you're, like, a weirdo fool. If what's intentional? The things you say! Yes, I intend to say the things I say. No, God, you don't get it. They don't just come out of my mouth. I got the mango Mai Tai.

And I get why Chris Catan says nobody touched a mango. Because it's delicious. It's a delicious fruit. He's keeping it for himself. Gotcha. I'm losing my voice. It's going away during the podcast. It's going to be gone. So why does Catan say

don't touch the mango if it's delicious? I'm saying he's trying to keep it for himself. He's trying to hoard it for himself. Sorry. It was bad. That mango Mai Tai was really good. It was very sweet, like you said, but it was very delicious. By the way, you seem to

potentially have some sort of illness. And then you, at one point in the meal, grabbed my drink, sipped out of my straw, and then said, don't have any more of that. That's true. But at least he warned you.

It was the end of the meal, too. That was conscientious of you. They gave me a warning. But the thing was, there was big chunks coming through the straw. Yes, right. I didn't even notice that, honestly. I thought that was good. What were you saying, Nicole? I don't know. All right, sorry. You know what I find?

I didn't take any munchkins before I gave them out. Don't feel... I shouldn't eat a munchkin. Yeah, you don't need more fast food. You can't tell me that. I can say it about myself. Dana, what drink did you get? I got the watermelon martini. And that's also what you got, right, Nicole? Yes. What did you guys think of them watermelon martinis?

Fucking delicious! Unbelievable. Unreal. Really? Dude, I can't explain how good that fucking drink was. Right? The flavor was like real watermelon flavor. There was little bits of watermelon in it. The juice to vodka ratio was perfect.

And then on my second one, she brought me a little extra, like a milkshake. Yes. I was very pleased. I was like, this is how I live. Aside from them turning two tables into one table, that fucking drink was unbelievable.

Oh, so good. Lemon in there, baby. Yes! Oh! Oh! Oh, my God. It was delightful. It makes sense with a milkshake to give, like, there's a little leftover, but with a booze drink, it's strange. No, it's not. It's very kind and giving, and she knew what I needed.

She knew. She was like, this black woman wants more watermelon. Oh, my God. That's not what happened. She didn't bring me more watermelon. Yes, she did it! She fucking wanted it. I was like, I want that! Please. Please.

We were in Quincy. Please, God. People already say so much shit about Quincy. I didn't even realize you didn't get more watermelon. I really hope that's what happened. No, she was a bigot. Great rages. Great rages, but very racist. Dude, it's very good, yeah.

But honestly, this racism worked in my favor. Oh, Jesus. And then we got some ab smidge. The, so... So, Raimondi and LD were very very much on the we got to get the boneless or the gold fever wings.

That's right. And I say boneless because... Well, that wasn't just them. That was that everyone was on that. It's a thing that a lot of people have said, but the two of them there and our party were pushing those. An observation about the menu here. They don't even offer bone in wings anymore. It's all boneless wings. They've gone full boneless.

Whoa. We only got perfectly in the audience. That's not true. I got them today. Which branch were you at, sir? Were you at the Quincy one? Wow. Okay. So, baby, it's only Quincy has discontinued the... We hate bones in Quincy.

Halloween comes around. No skeleton shit. No one gets hard. Nick, just a quick heads up. That's not a bone in your penis when you get hard. I have to consult an anatomy text. I'm not sure about that. I don't know how your things are with you, but... Okay. Well, from the guy

who stood up and gave a full sentence correction, we have learned that they do have bone in wings at some locations. But we only had... Yes. We only had boneless ones. You prefer boneless. I'm a bone in guy if they're available. I like a bone. It depends on how I'm feeling.

If I feel like working, I'll get a bone. Right. If I just want to pop it in my mouth, I'll get a bone. It sounds nasty. And I do mean it. To be nasty. But that's just my truth. Right. Dino? Bone. Yeah.

Absolutely. Although this place probably would have fucked up the bone ones. That would have been raw. That's what I've heard, that to not get bone in at 99 because they can be a little bloody boned. Oh, that's a bummer. It's because everything's frozen. So that's what they do.

Yeah. I like bone in sometimes. Quincy, there's some good places that have boneless wings in Quincy. You don't believe in boneless wings. No, I'm fine with boneless wings. I prefer bone in wings also that I know that boneless wings are fundamentally a way to

market chicken nuggets to adults. That's not true. They're different from nuggets. They're a little different. Excuse you. They're a little different from nuggets and strips. They're a little different, but it's fundamentally more of a marketing invention. Hold on a second. You think that nuggets are just for kids? There was a time when there was a stigma

with getting nuggets. It was more of a kids meal. Yes, for sure. Not anymore. I know, not anymore, but when boneless wings were introduced, it was different. Why was this stigma happening? Oh, in the 80s, dude, if you got nuggets, you could call the baby off everywhere you went. Enjoy your nuggets, baby.

They'd say you had McDonald's. This is my theory in the same way that a sit-down, because, you know, it was a sit-down chains like Chili's that pioneered boneless wings. And I think it was, it's fundamentally a marketing invention in the same way that,

you know, Starbucks has a Frappuccino and that's just like basically a way to market a milkshake. I'm sorry for gesturing. You do too much of it. Get off my fucking back. We're friends. We were going to have a good last show together. Well, you were giving me a lot of negativity backstage.

No, I love you. My mom's here. Let's have fun. Gosh, you can't. I'm trying to have fun. You were furious at me for not going to the first Dunkin' Donuts. No, I don't care. And you brought it on stage too. You brought the energy on stage. No, you don't have to do anything I say. You never have to see Quincy or my friends.

I just want you to like my stuff. Can't you like my stuff? What do you mean? I don't know. It sounds weird. It sounds weird. I will say the flavor of, so the the gold fever wings, it's a honey mustard barbecue sauce, you know, they're very

breaded, but I thought them, those wings were pretty tasty, you know, for a sweet wing. I prefer something a little spicy, but I thought they were pretty good. Can you just listen to the way you said that? I thought those wings were pretty tasty. It sounds like you didn't like them. That's okay.

I did like them. I thought they were pretty, like I was trying to Sorry for altering the pitch of my voice for once. Didn't work out for me. It's why I don't do it. Hey, I liked it. I got the feelings you were conveying. Okay, that's what I was trying to do.

Dano, did you, or Dano, Nicole, Mitchell, did you guys like them wings? I didn't try them because I don't like mustard, and it's like a mustardy honey base bullshit. Yes, 100%. But they looked really pretty. I was like, ooh. They smelled like

hot dogs. Which was wild. They smell like hot dogs. It's true. It looked like they were smothered in honey mustard, and then when you smelled them, they smelled like fucking hot dogs. And at first I thought that was just Mitch's cologne, but then

I actually took the plate up to my nose and took a big whiff, and it's uncanny. They smell exactly like hot dogs. Oh, no. They smell like delicious hot dogs. What? Well, that's a bonus. I don't have a problem with it.

It's weird. It's supposed to be chicken, and it smells like a hot dog. Give me broccoli that smells like hot dogs and salad that smells like hot dogs. You wouldn't eat that broccoli. Why? Yes, I would. You wouldn't eat broccoli if it smelled like hot dogs. Give me a hot dog flavored water. Garlic to a vampire.

Yes, lamb biscuit! Hot dog smell is good. On a hot dog? Yeah. I liked it. On a fucking yellow chicken wing, it's weird. At the very least, it was notable. It was like a thing that we should point out, because it's weird.

My thoughts about I can easily put my thoughts about those wings into one little sentence that I just have from Austin Powers 3. I love gold! My mom is like,

what the fuck? My unfunny son is saying a thousand things I don't understand. Do you think you were funnier when you were also better looking as a child? Did everything go downhill? Also, I'm wondering if tonight, if you have any more

reviews that are presented basically as memes from Saturday Night Live cast members. I loved the gold wings. Yeah, I thought they were pretty good. They were good. It just smelled like hot. It didn't detract from it. You had to take it up to your face to smell the wings.

You did, but it was an interesting thing. Ramani got mad at me because my beard got in the wings. Wait, like you... Did you eat directly off the plate? What did you do? I smelled the wing plate and my beard got in the wings. Then I handed it to you and you ate your wings. You had yourself a beard wing.

Jesus. I'm sure I've inadvertently eaten your beard hair at some point and all the meals we've shared. That sounds so tricky. Yeah, inadvertently. We're on the road. I don't snip it into your mouth as you sleep. Nobody likes that.

We all really collectively hated that thought. Good. Very unsettling. I'm mad at boss. I'm mad at everybody. My voice is gone. I feel awful. The regular boneless wings, I felt like we're nothing to write at home about the potato skin. This is bad news though.

Yeah. Oh my god. This is bad news. Oh my god. This is bad news though because that was the best thing of the meal. The gold fever wings or the boneless wings? Both of the wings. I had another chicken dish

that we'll talk about in a second that I thought was pretty good. The skins I feel like were not great. They were a little mushy. The texture wasn't great. They weren't fried enough, but the sauce was pretty good. Not spicy enough, but pretty decent, but ultimately mushy.

Yeah. They had some sour cream on the side which I did appreciate. They felt like Sub TGI Fridays has a similar execution that I think is better. I wasn't impressed by them. If you disagree,

chime in. I think they're better than TGI Fridays. Stop pandering. They don't even like it. They disagree. I think they're good. I thought the golden wings were really good. Why did you guys vote for the 99?

Yeah, why did you do that? I had a Kelly Froze beef today. I would have been so happy. Your fans sent us there? Yeah, we took a vote online. Pizzeria Regina which we reviewed last night was by far the top vote getter because it's a reference to the podcast so much

and we were going to go there anyway. Nazi stove, though. Yeah, that was another issue. But then the 99 restaurant was number two. People wanted us to go there. So we're like, I guess we'll do it. It was until today. And it's strange.

Oh, it's bad. It's bad. Your fans wanted you to have a bad time today. They said, we want them to go out, spend money and be sad. I hate it that fucking place. Except for my fucking martini. That was delightful.

But the food, Jesus fucking Christ. There was a picture of Thomas Crane Library on the wall in the North Quincy football team. It's nice. It's a nice Quincy landmark. There's also a sign that showed the phonetic pronunciation of Quincy.

A Quinzy. And then it says, if you don't pronounce it this way, get out. Yeah, the connect which we told you is that's the way that the person said that. That was like everyone,

we brought that up and then everyone like Raimondi and you turned that into a humor. Actually, John Quincy Adams, that's how he said his name. So that's right. It's true. We also got the mozzarella moons as another app. Give me sticks over the moons.

Those were good. I'll give them that. Those were delightful. I like the texture to them and I like the marinara, but I think just like the proportion of cheese to breading. I like the form factor of a stick more. But moons are fun. You never get moons. This is so hard.

My voice is gone. Drink a beer. Drink a beer. I've been drinking beer and tea for the last week. Just back and forth. It's awful. It looks good on you. But also,

there you go. All right, that works great. Wow. Who would have thought? But the mozzarella moons, they weren't shaped like moons. They were shaped like like pita pockets. That's not a half moon.

Doesn't a half moon have a little curve? Good point. That's a crescent moon, so I'm stupid. The form factor was not particularly moon-like. I agree with you. They looked like wedges. Like an orange slice.

They weren't called moons on the menu and they were like described that. You wouldn't say that looks like a moon. You'd say that's no moon. It's not a moon. No, I'd say that's not a moon on my plate. Weger, are you moon-landing truth or do you think that they did land on the moon or not?

I think they did land on the moon, but someone murdered Jeffrey Epstein. That's where I am on conspiracy theories. Mitchell also thinks someone murdered Jeffrey Epstein. We talked about it. It's one of the few things on which we completely agree. We also got

a side salad with my meal. Actually, the meal I got was the three-course meal. A very helpful server. Melissa steered me towards this. She said it was the same price, and then I get a super salad and a dessert,

which I think I was going to have us try out here, but I'm not sure if I see it under the table. Maybe if Emily used to say... It's behind my chair, okay. Alright, let's all take a bite of Nick's floor dessert. Num num. So I got a salad with blue cheese, and since there was blue cheese dip and sauce,

which I didn't think through that we're getting blue cheese dip and sauce with all the apps, I had so much blue cheese. And the salad they brought me out had so much blue cheese and just parmesan on top of it. It was just loaded. It looked like someone shot ropes of blue cheese

over my side salad. What? It looked like so. Yeah, no, no, I got it. Who could do that? McDonald's Moon Man or something? Yeah, like a hybrid of...

Oh, Emma has brought out a tea. This is her tea. Be careful, it's hot. It's very hot. But if you want, I will chug it. Yeah, Mitch. Chug that hot tea. I'm kidding, please.

Alright, we're back. Did you just turn into a shock job? I certainly did. The salad was... Again, it was just like fine. It was a replacement level salad. And let's get into entrees. First we got cheese and crackers,

the most insane thing. Thank you for remembering that. A little secret about those. There was blue cheese buried in those. Yeah, and we thought it was mold. And some of us still think it was mold. We were like... It was this thing where we were like...

The waitress came back over and we were like, uh, like immediately, and she's like, it's blue cheese, like right away. Yes. She knew what we were going to say before we sat in. Mitchell dug through it with a fork. For a solid two minutes, which I know doesn't sound like a long time,

but you were like, no, I think we're safe. I was eating it, I was like, it tastes like blue cheese. I think we're good to go. But it was blue cheese, very strange, because it was like a bar cheese. Right, it's like a cheese spread, and then there's some blue cheese buried underneath, and then you're basically getting

wheat-thins crackers to eat alongside. It's a strange, I guess, complimentary app. No, it was fucking insane. Who leaves their house for cheese and crackers? Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on a second. I'd probably leave my house for some cheese and crackers. How good is the cheese and crackers? Where am I going to go, I guess?

If I had to step outside, I'd just walk outside and eat them. Right. Now we know how to set up the trap out in front of the house. If I saw a giant cage in a plate of cheese and crackers under them, I probably would try to get the cheese

and crackers out from under it. I think I'm just fast enough. I'd borrow some kid's hockey stick and I'd pull it out. I'd get it somehow. Or I'd get trapped in the cage and have a delicious meal in there. I know, what are they going to do with you?

Good point. The other thing they give you without asking is just bowls of popcorn, which I found very odd. Found odd? Why isn't it fun? Oh, you hate popcorn. Is it a Boston thing? Because there's popcorn at the hotel, too. We give popcorn to everyone that comes to us.

Yeah. You go to like a nice... Very important. The nicest steak restaurant. You'll get a nice bowl of popcorn right before... There you go! I like it. It's kind of fun. Although we were eating popcorn with no water and I was like, I'm dying? Also, the water smelled like hot dog.

I chugged that stuff down. So my entree, I got the country fried chicken. This was, again, Melissa's recommendation. There was a reaction to that in the audience. I couldn't tell if it was good or bad. I can't tell. React again? Oh. Huh? Yeah, who knows?

Very confusing. Just an unclear noise. I got the country fried chicken. All right. It was a... And it comes over... Played it over mashed potatoes. You get three sides, cranberry sauce.

A biscuit and some corn came with mine. I thought the... I see the sides were all... I didn't like them. The corn was like... It fell out of a can. Cranberry sauce clearly out of a can.

Shaped like a can. Shaped like a can. Not a whole can, but like mashed up in a way. You can tell this was inside a can recently. All the separate things on your plate were shaped like cans. Biscuit shaped like a can. Short squat can. With a little honey on top of it,

but the biscuit was very dry. That was the only moisture from it. So I just had a few bites of that and then discarded it. But the chicken itself and the potatoes was damn good. It was very, very satisfying. I liked it. Mitch, what did you do for an entree? I got the All Star Burger.

I got the All Star... No one cares about the All Star Burger. Jesus. I thought this was a fucking hometown show. With you, 99, we don't like it. We demand you review this bad place. So weird.

I got the All Star Burger. It comes with bacon, grilled onions, lettuce, tomato, some sauce on there. My thing... I got home fries and I got coleslaw. When I was done ordering, I said, I just want fries. Who am I kidding? So I said, please get rid of any of the green stuff

on my plate. Even if it's covered in mayo, just give me all fries. And she gave me fries. Which is a good move, I think. My burger came... it was wet. Yum. It was a wet burger. What do you mean by wet?

Like soaking wet. Like even the bun? Yeah. It's like if like... Like in the back area where the kitchen was, if there was like between like the kitchen and the the place where they hand out the meal,

like the dishes, if there was like a shower, and it just went through the shower quickly, it was wet like that. God, that's so weird. Yeah, it was wet. But it tasted good.

The easier to go down my throat, my boy. Hmm. Yeah, I noticed you one-shot it. It's not a slider. It's giant. How were the fries? The fries were good. I enjoyed the fries. I had about a half the burger

and some of the fries. But the burger was a little bit wet. We went app crazy. We had so many apps. We did go app crazy. It was like the early days of the iPhone. We were app crazy. As you remember, in the early days of the iPhone, people downloaded apps more

than they do now. People were excited to download apps. Apps have really cooled off. No apps still exist, but I'm saying the early days of the iPhone, there was like, here's an app that's like drinking a beer and everyone was downloading it. Here's an app that just makes a fart noise. And now we've just settled on four or five apps. There's no more.

No, there's lots of apps. There are plenty of apps now. I'm just saying they become more functional and less gimmicky. It was a fine thing to say. It was fine. That's the level it was at was fine. We can just move on. Dano, you shook your head when Mitch was saying

that he liked the fries. French fries went through that shallow, too. Oh, wow. You got wet fries. Damp. Gross. Fuck that place. You guys fucked us. Do you know... Guess what my fork review is going to be? What was your...

Do you know the only thing that didn't go through the shower? Me. I just sweat for an hour and a half. What? I didn't shower. I did shower. I showered before I came. You... Did you? Like, what is happening?

Yeah, what is going on? I don't know what's a lie. I don't know what to believe. Did you shower? No, I did it, okay? Dano fucking sniffed his eyes out. He's all right. It's not bad. Do I smell like hot dogs? He's all right.

I'm not a teenage boy, but... Nick, you know. But, yeah. So do I. Nick, you know that Nick put his mic down and started clapping. And I truly love that. Let me get in there.

Yeah, everything was a little wet. But that's not a bad thing. Did we get the same food, too? Yeah, but instead of French fries, I got potato skins, which was bad. What did you guys get? Chicken tenders. Chicken fingers, which apparently,

20 years ago, it was called babies. But... They got the baby dish. Oh, you're too little one. They were disgusting. Fucking gross. Really? The chicken fingers were gross? They were disgusting.

They gave me so many, and I was like, whoever needed this many. They weren't fried well, and then they were not seasoned. And they were really... They made me show angry. And then the ranch I was served, that wasn't fucking ranch. I don't know what the fuck that was, but it was not ranch.

They gave you a fake ranch? Yeah, mayonnaise with pepper in it. Oh, Quincy, turn around. Don't act like you don't know about it. We've been making big bucks. Yes, sneaky, sneaky. We've been duping people into buying ranch. It's really mayo with pepper for years.

Mayo costs way more than ranch. Nah, it was fucking gross. Right? I mean... It was bad. Yeah, it was... That's an easy thing on a menu. You're like, nobody can fuck up a chicken finger. And then 99 restaurants say, you know what?

Yeah. Just wait till you try these ones. This is the first skating rink in Bill Ricker. He was like, where do you get your chicken wings? All right. What's cheaper? And that's what they fucking got. It was fucking bullshit.

Wow. Damn. Again, I can't stress enough. I hate all of you for doing that to me. Wow. Standing over, damn. Sorry, you guys. Take it easy on me. Especially the one that went to the 99 in Charlestown. That's fucking grimy.

How did they do a serviceable tendy? But they couldn't do a... I'm sorry, serviceable boneless wing, but they couldn't do a tendy. First of all, you say nuggets are for children. And then you say, how did they do a serviceable tendy? I said that backwards, but I know you're talking about me saying

chicken tendy for chicken tender. Yes, you say it like a child. Okay, sorry. How do you... How do you do a good boneless wing without a bad chicken tender? I think the wings that we got had sauce on them.

Oh, got it. So I think the sauce masks all the imperfections. That makes sense. And then when you get them naked, you see everything, like a person, you know? Right, I got you. I barely look at myself with my shirt off. Well, we should get to our final thoughts on 99, although I think I know what direction this is headed.

Hold on a second. Five fucks. Wow. I just wanted this to be a fun last day and it would be like four forks or something. Fuck off. I should have went to Kelly's. You should have gone to Kelly's. What is Kelly's?

You said it now twice and these people like it. What's Kelly's? Yeah, why? If you guys like it, what the fuck, guys? Yeah, why did you vote this? Why did you do this to us? Who was like, let's go to the family restaurant on the corner of every strip mall in the fucking state? It is the official restaurant,

the official family restaurant of the Boston Red Sox. Those fucking pieces. Shit. Dano hates the Red Sox. Fucking worse. Guys, sing Sweet Caroline. Dorks. Sweet Caroline is fun.

It's a fun part of the game when you get to sing it. Whoa. I don't really care. I'm with Dano. Fuck you guys. You get to leave. I'm going to get killed tomorrow. My grandma used to go to the original one, Helen Donovan. She went to the original 99.

It seemed like a nice time. Yeah, it may have been at one point. So we'll go down the line. We'll each give our summation of thoughts, our review of this place. Give it a fork score from zero to five. Dano, let's start with you. I got there early.

Mitchell was on time. Thank you. Nicholas was late. It's true. Nick Weigar was late, he said. It's because of me. No, Nick was late is his fault. The bartender was

honestly like everyone's favorite aunt. So that gives it, what is it, a spoke or whatever, what the fuck do they call it on a fork? A spoke. A spoke? Like on a bike?

Like on a tire? Yeah, one of a fucking one fork, Dano. I'll give the second one because the lady did that wizardry with the fucking table. She really just pulled a wood out of a thing. I'd never seen that before. What?

I'd never seen that in a restaurant. You guys were really amazed by this? Oh, we loved it. If there wasn't a table in front of me, I would have stood up and clapped. I loved it. Wait, what? Why?

I was so happy. But the food was gross. So, two spokes. Two spokes. No, his review was two spokes. Two spokes on the old wagon wheel. I don't want to know. Wait, do you mean like half of a fork?

Do you mean half a fork or two forks? Well, he's trying to say tines. Two tines. Oh, fuck. Or two forks. It's either forks or tines. Do you guys do whole forks? You can do a whole fork. I've never thought of it in the physical way.

I thought you do. Every time I listen to your podcast, you're like, oh, I guess that's like the 2.2 thing you do. I'm sorry, Mike. You should have never fucking had me. You're doing great. You're doing great. You're great.

Also, before the show, can you take off your hat and your flannel because I want to show them what you were wearing before the show? No. He was wearing a white t-shirt and no hat. He said it looked like a white supremacist.

He looked like an extra in American History X. And I was like, are you going to just wear that white t-shirt on stage? I looked like the fat one that kept bumbling the hate crime. Oops. What a funny trope. The fat, bumbling white guy

who can't get his hate crime away. That is... He's beating up white people? Oops. It's like the black one, the black one. Dan, are you going to get the black one? Sorry, sir, whatever. My bad.

Mitch, I don't know if you can say this, but that basically describes the role you're playing in the movie you got. Jesus. He's been following me around all week to learn how to be a bumbling racist. So, your rating is... I'm still not clear on what your rating is.

I'm sorry. Is it two forks or half a fork? Yeah, two forks. You give five forks. Two spokes. It's two spokes. Dan O gives it two spokes. One fork.

One fork equals two spokes. Go ahead, Nicole Byer. Okay. My food was trash. Truly, our waitress went to a dumpster and said, she'll eat this, but I really love that watermelon margarita.

I fucking love that trick where she made the two boots into one. So, I guess one fork and a spoke. I forgot about the watermelon martini. Five spokes.

Wait a minute. That actually is some math we have to do there. Two and a half forks, yeah. All right. All right, go ahead, Mitch. I had a fun time riding around Quincy. Are you getting the dessert out? I'm sure this is going to be delicious.

I'm just going to have it. You guys don't have to have any. No, I want some. I want your floor dessert. I mean, this looks like a mess and we don't have any utensils, so this is going to be... Let's scoop it with our fingies. Go ahead, Mitch.

Huh? Oh, man. I mean, the show's almost over. The tour's almost over. I just wish it could last forever, Nick. I had a... I had such a fun time with Nicole. You can't eat this

with your fingers as I'm doing my review. Sorry, I'll stop. You just can't do that. I'll stop. You're sticking one finger in and then eating it with the one finger. You can't do it that way. Wait, but was it good? It's real peanut buttery.

It's pretty good. Yeah, it's just basically straight peanut butter with some nuts and some peanut butter cup pieces. That's a five-spoker, for sure. Do we go by spokes now? I mean, we can. Don't do it. It doesn't make sense.

That's fucking good. It's pretty good. Get the bottom part, too. Ooh, you got some fudge. Again, Melissa's recommendation and, yeah, this is a good dessert. You really hammered this thing, Mitch. Dino, get in there. Get your little fingies dirty.

Little fingies. Sorry, you big fingie? I don't know. Fat, fat fingers, fat fingers. Dino and I... We drove around Quincy afterwards. We went to the new Dunkin' Donuts on Washington Street. That's fun. I thought they would get a big pop.

Nope, because they put it in between a dog kennel and a shipyard. In a shipyard. It was a bad location. They did a bad job with the location. Are we gonna launch our new system? There was... Yeah. West Quincy was not the best spot for it.

Quincy, what's that? Did someone just yell Dairy Queen? It also sounded like he was falling into a hole. Dairy Queen! Goodbye, sir! His last words as he's being pulled into Narnia? Pulled into Narnia. Um...

Seemed scary, his arms. Um... Oh, boy. Kooky day. I feel insane in front of Mummy. Dino and I were driving around Quincy afterwards. I was seeing the beautiful city I love. The field where I hit a game winning double

to win the championship. Throwed by the high school where I dated the prom queen. The football field where I threw the game winning throw. I mentioned this at the show last night, but you took me to the... Last time we were in Quincy,

you took me to see the shipping container where two coaches locked you inside when you were on the football team. Coach Prism and Coach Carter locked me inside a shipping unit. I don't know what their plan was, if they were going to ship me somewhere else to another country.

Hey, how long were you in there? I was in there for, like, most of the season. Um... You were driving around Quincy, you were seeing all the sights. Yeah, seeing all the sights, all that's fake, except for the game winning double, that was real. Saddest least.

Sadly, the best moment of my life. But, uh... I love that city. But, uh, I love that city, Nick. Mm-hmm. And I love that Nicole was there with me. I love that you were there with me, even though you continue not to care.

It was fine. It was fine. I was there. Which is honestly the best thing you could say about Quincy. I mean, what the fuck? It's fine. It's fine, Mitch. This was your first time there. Why do you have a strong opinion about it?

Because I was with friends in the city that I love, Nick. And it was a good time. CHEERING God, help me. I can't go below eight spokes. LAUGHTER Which is two spokes? I mean, two forks?

That's four forks. That's four forks. That's insane. I don't care. We're ending the tour. We're ending the tour. I'm going out on four forks. People are shaking their heads, no. CHEERING Jesus Christ.

It's going to get torn apart. The Quincy blinders are insane. You said your burger had been through a shower. LAUGHTER But, you know... You checked cheese for mold. LAUGHTER

For mold. LAUGHTER Mold. I did have a great time with everybody. Four spokes, okay? That's one for... That's two forks. Two forks.

Wow, two forks. Two and a half forks. You know what? Four forks again. LAUGHTER I'm sticking with four forks. I love Quincy. APPLAUSE I love Quincy.

She's a beautiful mistress. LAUGHTER What? LAUGHTER I love Quincy, Massachusetts. CHEERING And I loved hanging out with you guys. It doesn't matter. It's going to get...

It's got torn apart already. Yeah, it's fine. Look, I think that everything there was fine. This was a right down the middle chain restaurant. Very sweet cocktails. And, you know, great service. Service was great, especially for a place

that was very, very busy. It was a feast when they removed that divider was great. That wasn't... That was a fucking great... I loved it. I want to be on board with it. It wasn't that good. I don't know how you didn't love it.

That's the thing you're fighting us about? The fucking thing when she turned the two tables and the one table? Yeah, it was great. She was like, watch out. And I was like, okay. It was wonderful. She came over and she was like, I just want a bigger table.

Hold on. That's impossible. How can we have a bigger table? It's the biggest table in here. Clearly there's a wall here. And then, shazam! Fucking giant table for you to get off of my lap and go to the other side. It was very crowded at that point.

And then they put everything through the shower. It wasn't great. Yes. Super sweet cocktails. Apps were, you know, for the most part, fine wings were pretty good. I reckon Melissa steered me in the right direction with her Rex, including the peanut butter petite treat,

which traveled well and was a very good dessert. And I'd like to see it in the actual in-restaurant presentation and plating. I'm not going to be too hard on it, because it's fine. And I think fine for this podcast is six spokes.

Three forks. Three forks for a nine-night restaurant. Nick. Yeah. You're my good friend, and I'll show you we agree on a lot more than just a few like a few things besides Jeffrey actually being killed. He definitely got killed.

And we're both on the murder train, not the fake corpse train, right? That's right. I actually think he is still alive. Oh, you think he's still alive? I think he's dead. Yes, on the moon, which was a fake landing. But I think that he lives on there now. I also think three forks, my friend. Wow. Is this a handshake you're extending for?

Now you guys are friends forever. We're now friends in real life. Friends forever. IRL friends. IRL friends. You'll talk about this ten years from now. We finally became friends and we shook hands on stage. You know what? You're right.

99's not that good. Yeah. You know what? Quincy's not that good. I'm going back to L.A. Should have laughed at my jokes more. Trimming my beard in your mouth was funny. How do you fuck these people? I don't know if I've ever actually shaken hands with you, Mitch,

and my hand was like enveloped by a baseball, Mitch. You got some big paw. It feels like your hand was run through the shower with that burger. Hell, this is weird. Let me get in there. Uh-oh. I thought that we were

about to become one like time cop. You can create anything, man. Oh, my God. Uh, Mitch, that was our review of 99 Restaurant. We had fun, though. We did have fun. We had a lot of fun. And that means it's time for a segment.

We're going to taste test some food and drinks from Majestic Dragon Restaurant in Ipswich. And to help us out, we have a special guest, Mitch. We do. Please welcome Adam Wu, aka Wu Tang. Yu Song and Emma coming out with some

red solo cups, some rum, and an extra chair. Wu Tang, everybody! What's up, Wu? How's it going? Wu Tang's going to the table. Hugging everybody. Could get everyone in here drunk.

Let's find out. So, Wu Tang, what are you going to be making for us? Uh, these are Mai Tai's. Okay, you're whipping up some Mai Tai's? Yeah, these are premade. We don't make them. We make them with love with every order you get. Got it.

But for this episode, you made them and you bottled it in this bottle here for us. Yeah, that's a ghetto bottle. I believe Gilbert's is made out of Somerville. Oh, got it. So this isn't actually Gilbert's rum. These are the premade Mai Tai's. We're going to pour them over ice. Go ahead and get that started.

It's got to be over ice. You need some ice to water it down a little bit. Wu Tang is someone who is in the restaurant industry. That being your line of work. Is there any kind of customer and you particularly

customer experience that like is particularly gets on your nerves? Obviously some customers are shitty tippers or just bad people in general. But is there anything that really grinds your gears? White people? What the fuck? Nicole.

Nicole. So we've got these Mai Tai's in front of us. This is like the color is like an iced tea, I'd say. It's got a little bit of an intense tan to it.

Or a Nekwaga. Oh my god, this is strong. This is a potent drink. It sure is. I'm here for it. By the way, Daniel, thank you for shouting out the Nekwaga of my invention, which is two-thirds iced tea, one-third lemonade. I know, I heard you were also

a bit of a heat seeker. A bit of a heat seeker, yes. I also heard you from Southern California. There's a documentary on the Arnold Palmer and he says that his is two-thirds iced tea and a third lemonade. And he learned it from me. Yes.

Arnold Palmer, who is now dead. Ha ha. Oh, what? How am I going to fucking the Arnold Palmer estate is going to come after me as I'm plumbing a toilet tomorrow? Shut the fuck up. Get back to work. This is a potent cocktail.

My voice cracked. The first sip is always a kick in the nuts. Yeah, it's good though. This is quite good. Mitch, you like this bad boy? You're a Mai Tai fan. Of course, it's delicious. It's the best Mai Tai in the North Shore and the South Shore. Wow.

Alright, next up we've got some wings. Is that correct? Yeah. What do we have here? Salt and pepper wings. Salt and pepper wings. The ingredients are, they're cooked twice. So we deep fry them. Okay, I'm going to try to distro these while you're talking. Yeah, yeah. And then the

other ingredients, I'm not at liberty to say. I like that. Mystery. That's an Evan Susser. Okay, Evan Susser quote. Don't quote Susser here. Is he here? No, he's not here. These are bone in. I'm going to take one for myself

and pass this tray down. I'm taking a flat because I'm a flat guy. You've done such a bad job. You open it and took a wing for yourself. It's difficult. This tray is difficult and cumbersome to move. Are you yelling at Adam the tray he gave us? No, no, no. You're giving me shit for trying to do something

for the show while you're sitting there. I don't need that shit. Complaining. The receipts right here. I don't know if you saw it. The receipts right there. We'll pay you. Alright, I'm going to take a bite of this bad boy. And then I think we can give some people,

give some of these out. I'm not sure how we'll distribute these. We got a lot of wings here. We got a good kick to it. Let us know what you're tasting as you're biting these. I'm going to take a bite right now. It's delicious. They're damn delicious. I can't... They've been sitting for about 2 hours probably now

and they're still great. Yeah, I told you like an hour and a half ago that I was not drinking. That's right. I've been drinking since. Jesus Christ, is that how he eats it? What the... What is that? I don't know.

It's very strange. What? He's eating his fingers too. I'm so interested in this. It's like so intense. Yeah, why? Why doesn't he... I don't...

Why are you cheering that? That is just... You eat chicken wings like my mother. You really get fucking everything. Where are the bones? I want to get all the meat off of it. Where's the bone? He's sucking the meat off that bone.

Yeah, get it. Oh, Nick, get it. It's just the fact that your hands are so intense it looks like you're strangling it. Should I just like eat on Twitch streams for money? Oh my god. Honestly, I was

truly mesmerized by that. You could make money. There's this lady that I watch who eats... She's this like thin, beautiful black woman who'll have heaps of like food and she'll be like, okay, let's do it. She's like...

Okay, we're gonna start on this now. It's so funny but also like really satisfying. I really like watching her. So my answer, you can make so much money, do it. You could be the next Badland Chugs. You know Badland Chugs? Badland Chugs is great. Badland Chugs?

Yeah, he reviews drinks and he chugs them. He's like... It's Badlands Chugs. It's like the opening and then he's like, I'm gonna drink like seven sprites and then he pours seven sprites into a big container and drinks it. That sounds riveting. It's very impressive.

It's cool. My understanding is that people are like jacking off to that shit, right? That's gotta be part of the motivation. No, no, I'm fully clothed and I just like watching this lady eat. Oh, interesting. Is that what you wanted from this? No, I'm neutral on that aspect of it

but I just wanted to know if that's a part of it. I'm sure if you were eating on camera someone would pull their dick out or stick a finger in their puss. They'd be like, ooh, that Nick. These wings are very good. They've got a good amount of heat to them. I love how the...

I love the crispiness of the skin. I love that they're not really breaded, are they, Wu-Tang? No, they're not. Yeah, and I think... Definitely better than what we had at 99 Chicken Wise. That's 100% true. These are 1,000 million times better than the 99 ones. These are wonderful.

These are snacks and drinks. Snacks and drinks all around. Wu-Tang, anything else you want to tell us about Majestic Dragon Restaurant and where people can find it? Oh, it's an up-and-nip switch. And, uh, no, that's about it. Wu-Tang, everyone! Give it up for Wu-Tang.

You give me another one? Another drumstick. You want one? A drumstick? All right, so, Wing Sir, Wu-Tang is going around giving everyone hugs and kisses. Thank you, Wu-Tang. I want you.

Did you just hug me from behind? I'm going to give the wings to the audience. Is that crazy? No, I think you should. Do you promise not to project our vomit wings onto people? No fun? They can't even promise.

They were like, don't throw up if we give you the wings. So Mitch is going to give some people some wings. While he's doing that, we're going to take some questions to the audience. It's time to open up the feedback. And our Q&A, the spotlight is coming up

on where this mic is in the aisle. For that Q&A, we're looking for Sean Morse, Amanda Ewan, and Eric Oliver. So Sean, Amanda, and Eric, if you want to come up and line up down there, and whenever you get lined up,

we will go into your questions. And just so you know, the Patriots came stars in about 25 minutes. We're doing fine on time, Mitch. Tick-tock, my friends. All right. Oh, my goodness. Yeah, you got a Pat's hat right now.

Pat's hat is stepping up to the microphone. Is that a custom-made Spoonman shirt? What do you have on? Yeah, it's custom-made. I'm a graphic designer, smartassortments.com. Check that out. What does it say on your shirt? It's Merrick Quincy.

That's my man, Mitch, right there. Wow, Merrick Quincy. I got one, too, going. Look at that. That's an awesome one. The artist formerly known as Spoon. Sorry, I ate another wing. So tell us your name and tell us your question.

Yeah, so Sean Morse, and I was just wondering, I'm pretty lucky. I got Dunkin' Donuts in most of the airports that I end up going to, but I wanted to know from you guys what chain would you want every airport or train station?

Not necessarily your favorite, but the one that would help you with the long trips. Wow, this is an excellent question. We've been traveling a lot this year, Mitch. There are usually Dunkin's in airports, which I know is a place that you like, and something that has a breakfast

I feel like is often helpful. I don't like Starbucks. I dislike Starbucks. When there's a Starbucks in an airport, I will go to a Starbucks because I know what it is, and I know I can get something for a coffee. Any thoughts, anything that comes to mind, Mitch?

A specific restaurant that I want in every airport. I mean, Dunkin's would be my answer because I feel like I don't see it as much. Oh, interesting. It's not at LAX at all. It's in Logan, but it's not in LAX at all. I think just a chain restaurant with a good bathroom, mostly.

Yeah, airport bathrooms are usually bad, but at least they've got a lot of stalls. Yeah. So you feel like you have a modicum of privacy to the volume, the anonymity of the group setting? I don't know. That's how I process it. Hold on a second. What?

You like the group setting of public bathrooms? Look, there are so many people in public bathrooms that I feel like, okay, there's a line of 16 stalls. No one's going to know who's responsible for whatever abomination is currently happening, and from whose holes it's coming

out of, you know? Whose holes? Whose holes? Whose hole is that coming from? At 8 p.m. on Fox TV. But yeah, I... Do you have an answer, Nick? My mind went to some place

where I can get like a healthy bowl or salad. I have an answer. Like a sweetgrain. If there were airport sweetgreens that were consistent, I think that would be pretty useful for me. 7-Eleven. Wow, that's great.

Is there absolutely should be airport 7-Eleven? It just covers everything. I could get a Slurpee if I wanted to. Right. That'd be awesome. I could get a big ass Slurpee from my plane ride from LAX to Boston. It would be great. Dano, Nicole, anything you'd like to see in a travel hub?

I've never left Boston in my life, so... Hold on a second. I don't know what happens at an airport. This is some bullshit Goodwill hunting stuff. I've never seen beyond Boston. I've literally... I've never seen beyond Boston. Why would you leave?

We all love each other so much. You've got to get out of here. There's something better for you out there. Honestly, I can't think of anything. That question is a real tough one. Like, what the f***? I don't know.

Sweetgrain. I love a salad. That's the biggest lie I've ever heard of my life. Byer, you travel a lot. Kelly's roast beef, for God's sake. Chilies is already there. Chilies is a great one. Chilies is so much better than the 99. I love chilies.

Okay. So, I wasn't traveling, but I went on a date to the airport to eat at Guy Fieri's Burger Joint. Hell yeah. Can you just say that sentence once more? You went on a date to Guy? I wasn't traveling.

I wanted to eat at a Guy Fieri restaurant. The only one in L.A. is in the Burbank Airport. So, I bought two refundable plane tickets for me and a man who didn't appreciate me. To go eat there.

And it was f***ing delightful. So, I went to Guy Fieri's Burger Joint in every f***ing airport. The burger was so good. That's awesome. Wow. Awesome. Thank you for your question. Next person, please step up to the mic.

Hello. Hi. Hi. My name's Amanda. Hi, Amanda. We're in the Burger Brigade shirt. I love it. Thank you. So, my question is, when was the last time you guys vomited? Last night?

Yeah. Third row f***ing vlog. It was Dano this whole time. Last time I vomited. I think it was... I'm trying to remember my last puke. I think it was in... I'm trying to remember my last puke as well.

I think it was in the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas. In the... You know what? I'm very good in casinos and hotels of finding like the off... like tucked away lobby bathroom.

Like the one with less traffic. So, I found one of those and this was like... I was like insanely hungover because we were at the same bachelor party, Mitch. You didn't do anything. I know, but I had like enough alcohol over the course of the day where the next morning

I woke up and I felt... Hold on a second. Insane. You left that bachelor party on a Saturday. Yeah. You went home Saturday morning. No, I went home Sunday morning. That's not true. I flew home Sunday morning. Did you drink by yourself?

No, I was just... I was tuckered out but I had been drinking all day. I later pieced together that I like woke up and I was like, hey, it's Vegas, all of a bloody Mary for breakfast and I was just drinking continuously from like 8 a.m. to like 9 p.m. I went to bed. We went to Margaritaville at one point.

Yeah, we went to Margaritaville and we got extra fucked up there. So, yeah, and I had just an awful bowel movement and then I... I like got up and flushed my hands and then I turned around and went back and like puked into the toilet afterwards. Jesus.

Just like every fluid in my body just needed to be out at once. It was brutal. It was hard. I think that was the last moment I have a memory of. Do you flush in between, for God's sakes? Of course. I'm gonna puke on my own shit like a fucking animal. I'm not a Dope Boys fan.

I just want to say sorry to all my aunts and attendants. I haven't thrown up in like five years and when I do now, I like I feel like I'm gonna die. Yeah.

Like I'm like... Like I scream. And it doesn't feel right. Like I can't get it. I could never pull the trigger, as people say. Yes. Making yourself puke. I can never make myself throw up. So it never wants to go

my tummy likes that food. It doesn't want to let go. So I think like five years ago at Palmerston and Jack Allison I was puking in my bathroom and Jack Allison heard me just gurgling, he said. And didn't check on me. But yeah, it was also a hangover situation.

Right. Nicole? I remember vividly the last time I puked. It was two years ago in June. It was the end of DCM which is Delclos Marathon's improv marathon that used to be in New York.

And I was on my flight. I was sitting in economy. And... There's so mean to you back there. They don't thank you for your medallion status. So then one of the flight attendants was like we were joking about how people are poorly behaved on flights.

I was drinking a bottle of champagne in first class. Nobody's drinking it. Do you want some? I thought it was like maybe a sip left but it was half the bottle. Or like maybe like three fourths of the bottle. So I drank all of that. Then the cart came around. He's like what do you want?

And I was like it may seem silly but apple juice and vodka. And he was like together. And I was like no, separately. And he was like you're still disgusting. So instead of one he gave me two vodkas on the rocks and the other one I was like and he gave me two more.

And then a couple minutes later I was like here you got a sweetheart. And I was like you don't know what you're doing. And then I watched Forrest Gump so close so close to the screen. And I kept turning to the man next to me

and being like this movie doesn't hold up. And then the plane landed and we were stuck on the runway. And all I could think of is if I scream they'll take me off this plane. But then I was like I don't have time to be arrested. So I waited till we got to the gate.

I thought I seemed okay in my lift home. But at one point the driver was like are you okay? And I was like you just gotta get me home. And then I got home looked at my dogs and I was like I cannot walk you. So I like laid down in my bed

and then I was like uh oh got a puke. So then I went to my bathroom cried for maybe a full minute and then threw up so hard that I popped a blood vessel in my eye. Oh my god. That's insane. Well now but it's good though.

Because now I know my max is three quarters of a bottle of champagne and then six vodka's on the rocks. That's my max. I can't drink anything more than that.

I realized while you were telling that story that I've more recently been thrown up on. Oh right. Then thrown up I was on a plane and someone puked on my butt. Yes. As you know. That happened a couple of times right? Someone puked on my butt. How did someone puke on your butt?

Were you like twerking in the aisle and they were like I hate it. I'm sure that's how it happened. I was on a plane and this guy who got on who looked like Weiger I told you this. Yes. He looked a lot like you and he was sweating and I was like what's wrong with that guy. He sat next to me and I was like oh god.

I fell asleep woke up and was like my butt's wet and I touched my butt and I was like smells like puke and then the guy next to me like I start to get up and run to the bathroom

and then the lights came on for us to land and he had a cup of water there. The lights came on. The cup was filled with puke. He had puked on my butt. He had puked in the cup and then he went into the bathroom and never came out again. Yeah. I got puked on my

butt. People are fucking animals. I'm so confused about the thing. So what? Who does that? Who just goes well he's sleeping and then I think he was in the middle seat. I was the window seat maybe. Oh no. He was the aisle seat.

I was middle seat and he just puked on my butt accidentally. Like I think he was scared when I woke up that he had puked on my butt. Got it. And then I was gonna be like hey you puked on my ass what's going on here and so he ran to the bathroom. He never got out and then when I was walking out the plane an emergency team

ran to the plane. It's also that what was the virus in South America? Ebola? No. Zika. It was the same weekend that there were Zika outbreaks. And so I was afraid that he had puked Zika on my butt.

Anyways, yeah. Yeah. I'm into it now. Thank you Amanda for that question that provoked some revolting responses. Thank you. One final question. Hi. Hi. I'm Eric.

Hi Eric. Thanks for both of the shows in Boston. They were both fantastic. Are you the nicest man in Boston? Get the fuck out of here. Certainly so. Goodbye friends. Beat it.

Alright, well my question. After this grueling tour and even just this grueling dinner how long are you gonna take off from fast food? And then when you go back to fast food what are you going to eat next? Fuck. Listen. I'm never gonna eat fast food again.

Two hours. Me and him in a drive-thru in North Quincy. $75. You are awesome tonight. You'll find a lady, Mike. And the lady will be the best. You got some honey mustard in your beard. Let me get it.

That's true. It's kind of sweet. I'm planning on just having straight salads for the next week. You try and eat as healthy as possible because I feel like absolute shit. Temp level. They want to know the temp level. I'm gonna have the normal level of temp.

I'm not gonna warm up my salad. I'm gonna have a hot salad. Stop with this nonsense. I didn't even bring it up. It's the first time the tour is wrapping up. Yeah, I know. You said temp level of the salad. So that was you trying to say a hot salad thing

like a normal temp salad. Give me the salad that it's normally served. The temperature it's served at. Oh, of course. Saying it like someone who likes the normal temperature. Excuse me. Give me the salad that it's normally served at.

The normal temperature, please. Thank you. That's what I want. Yeah, I'm just gonna be... Next time I get fast food, honestly, next time I break from this, will probably be something for the podcast. Like after I'm just like super depressed and I can't find happiness in the bottle of booze

so I go over to... So tonight. Yeah. Well, I mean, not tonight, but I mean like... Yeah, sometimes in the future. I don't know if I'll get fast food tonight. Hopefully I won't. Mitch, do you have an answer? There's room in that back seat. If you want to come with us.

You should come with us. Don't you think Waggard should come with us? You know, Natalie's not really here. You can admit it. I feel like if we all get in a car together and go to Wendy's, it's gonna end in a Thelma and Louise style fade to white.

It's all I've been waiting for. He won't do it. Gonna need a bigger canyon. Guys, that's our show. Nicole Byer. Daniel. You strong and Emma. I know next time for the Spoonman, Mike Mitchell, I'm Nick Waggard. Happy eating.

See ya. Thank you, Boston. Thanks, guys. This was Dano's first time performing ever for real. Never performed before. And give it up for Nicole, one of the funniest people on Earth. Sources for this week's intro include Why Are Horseshoes Considered to be Lucky by Deborah Ronca.
