You should know it was very cold. It was a very cold set. It was freezing. It was sub-zero. This was actor Ben Affleck describing his experience filming the now infamous shower scene in David Fincher's 2014 film Gone Girl. While audiences were gripped by the Jillian Flynn adaptation of her own novel that basically boils down to women or liars, the discourse in the aftermath was overwhelmingly about Ben Affleck's beautiful hog, which, while only visible flaccid and in profile, was still amply chubbed. Jennifer Garner, his then wife, even gloated on Ellen about how the cinematic dick display necessitated a wide-angle lens.

And while Affleck modestly referenced the chilly temperature that may have shrunken his meaty piece, he has insisted the appendage is really his, despite unsourced allegations on the blank check podcast that that bad boy was CGI. Either way, Fincher has a history of exhibiting his actor's equipment in the best possible light. In the 1995 film 7 featuring Kevin Spacey as, Get This, a Creep, the heavyset gluttony victim whose corpse appeared nude was gifted with a prosthetic penis described as large and shapely. Gone Girl and Afflex turned as Hogg Guy reflected a modern resurgence for the Bostonian Thespian, cementing him as a true A-lister. And in 2023, he leveraged his hometown connection to endorse a Quincy-founded donut chain that's a New England institution. The spots now number a dozen at date, and outside of the fictional Dunkicino commercial with Al Pacino have become the contemporary campaign most associated with the now national breakfast and coffee shop.

But while Affleck himself today thrives both in film and in commercials, the central mystery of Gone Girl remains, was that hog really his? To quote the title sequence of the X-Files, I Want to Believe. This week on Doe Boys, we return, once again, to Dughey. Duncan. Welcome to Doe Boys, the podcast about chain restaurants. I'm Tiger Wiger, along with my co-host, Donkey Kong, the Spoon Man, Mike Mitchell. That's what I don't mind.

Duncan Donuts plus Donkey Kong. Quincy, video games, it's Mitch all over. He could replace Diddy Kong in any upcoming game, just give him a Celtics hat and a flannel, Dunkincheno power-ups, make him way, way bigger, et cetera. Okay, that kind of went in that. Yeah, this one, it was very detailed. More libelous direction.

Wait, libelous? Well, I mean, I guess like it's just saying some, just make him way, way bigger. It just kind of feels like a little bit of a, I guess you are just a bigger guy in general. Hey, hey, hey, hey, watch what you say about my Boston friends here. You call my friend big? You call my friend big at the beginning of the podcast. Oh, by the way, he said way, way bigger. It wasn't even that bad.

No. Uh, question of Mitch says mom and pop, um, popcorn. Why wouldn't he call the video game donkey? I got backup today. Yeah. He says, mom and popcorn. Why wouldn't he call the video game donkey, donkey cung? What are the rules of this linguistic anomaly?

Someone asked Matsukas how it works. Thank you all for the best podcast, and thank you to Mitch for being such a good sport. I really hope you swap over to Weiger roast when Mike finally gets sick of this. I don't want to switch to calling you Mike there. I cannot love you all more, especially the Deas Spoonberger Nation Brigade for Life at GripGrand, roast at birdfuck.com.

Thanks, Grip Grand. Grip Grand, I see you next time. I'm going to throw a barrel at your ass. Yeah. Yeah, Gripe Grand. We do have a guest today who will introduce at a minute, who's also from New England, who maybe can discuss. It also doesn't say Donkey Kong.

Dunky Kong. Dunky Kong. But hot dog, popcorn, popcorn. Mum. I don't say mom. I don't say mom. I do. I mean, I was going to say, I don't say that.

But people have seen me do it over and over and over again. I sometimes will say mom occasionally, right? You're going to mom? I say mom, though, a lot. Mum. Mom. See, that's high class. That's some London shit you got going on.

Mum. It's New England. So there we go. It's not my fault that we were. Hey, Plymouth Rock. landed on me. Guess what? My mom lives in Plymouth.

Guess what? How about that? My ex loves in Plymouth. Hell yeah. Who says that? Is that, is that, is that, is that, is that, is that, is that, is that, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, what's his name? As Malcolm X.

Plymouth. Oh, all right. So I shouldn't, I shouldn't, I shouldn't, I shouldn't, I should, I shouldn't, I had your back so hard. I jumped in. Civil rights lyrics, civil rights leaders of. Oh, he, really. He actually did say it too.

The 20th century, yeah. I believe it's a real quote. Okay, so it's not, it is actual Malcolm X. Yeah, I don't think it's a Spike Lee invention. I could be wrong. I tip my cap to Malcolm X. I think he was good. I read his autobiography as a kid.

My parents had it. I just picked it up off the shelf and read it. It was really like wild, wild life. Yeah. Yeah, but he had a time when some of his friends were sex workers and he would team up with them to rob the Johns. Wow. Isn't that wild?

In the future, I'll talk about. about how some of my friends used to be podcasters and comedians. When I'm a revolutionary, of course. If I remember it correctly, there was one old guy who had like an adult baby fetish. It was kind of crazy. This book that was like written in the 60s that has like is going into this thing that I think of is more of an internet thing. And he's like this old guy got his adult baby fetish. And so they basically were like, well, hold on a second.

Well, all right. We'll type him. We'll tie him up. And then we'll, we'll like rob his nice house. And what's he going to do about it? He's going to like, you know. I thought he's going to do. I cry.

But then it was really interesting to see how he progressed from that to, you know, the man he became. An interesting figure. See, that's some, that's some L.A. stuff. We were reading the Berenstein Bears. Yes, we were. And we don't know the way they spelled it. Nope, nobody does. The Mandela effect.

Exactly. The revolution. Another great leader. Another good leader. I said good. Another great. I didn't know why I downgraded it. Another great leader.

He's good. He's good. He's good. The Revolution will not be televised. Who's that? Malcolm X? Or is that? The Revolution will.

Oh, wait. The Revolution will be televised. No, I think this will not be. I think this will not be. But I don't know the context of that quote. I don't remember that one. The Revolution will not be podcasted. That's my take on it.

Mitch, I have... Gil Scott Heron. Okay. He'll Scott. Gil Scott heroin. Heron. Heron. Heron.

I don't know. I mean, here's a... thing. Gil, like you said before, a fish thing. Heron also a thing that eats fish. Wow, that's really interesting, Mitch. So there's a lot going on in that name. Yeah.

And Scott could be the name of a boat captain. It could. You can name a bird, Scott. Or you could name a fish. Scott. Right, it's a fish. It could be a bird and a fish with the same name and Scott is the commonality. That's true. That's true. It's probably was happening. Mitch, I have

news. I have a story I was waiting to tell you on the podcast. What the hell? Last night I saw a ghost. Get the fuck out of here. I did. So I was in, so I fell asleep with my couch. I got home very late and it was one of those things where it was just like, I was on my couch.

I kind of fell asleep. And the way my couch is positioned in our place, it's... Can I just quickly say? Yeah. Force ghost of Jeffrey Epstein? Just nods at me sagely. Carrying on his legacy. So I'm lying, I'm lying my back.

I kind of collapsed on the couch. I'm lying on my back. And then I kind of wake up and it's the very early morning, but it's still dark outside. The sun is not risen yet. Is this why I got set up asking if I believed in... Directly opposite for me is the front door. Well, no, it's not slimer, Mitch.

What it is is seated in a chair that's not in my apartment. A wood chair is a female figure of some kind. Could be a woman, could be a girl. Hell yeah. Hell yeah. Hell yeah. Jesus Christ She's

She's got like a And it's really like I have sleep paralysis I'm not having sleep paralysis right now I'm fully awake I can move I can breathe normally I can tell I'm in my place

I'm not in a dream version of my place She is a She's a woman of some sort Possibly a girl Who has like a hair Like bangs and like kind of like a bob haircut I want to say if it's a girl I want to take back the high five

I can get you a second Yeah what age is Hold on, let me continue. Was Jeffrey Fancy maybe was there? It was hard to tell because her face was completely in shadow and she was sort of like this. That's terrifying. She had red, she had like red robes with like a white like, you know, like white robes underneath

it. It was some sort of flowing garment. Possibly it was pants, but it felt like robes to me. And it went all the way to the floor and she was just like looking at me like this, like kind of a Kubrick stare, but if the face was completely in shadow. Now, so I'm looking at this for a little bit and I'm just kind of engaged but with this figure and I'm like. trying to suss out if they are,

they are threatening or whatever, and I sort of get the feeling that they are, like, trying to keep me from leaving, but not that I'm in any sort of danger. So what I just sort of do is I'm, like, lying on the couch. I just sort of swing my legs over, and I try to just sort of, like, maneuver, like, you know, just kind of get,

gently get up and, like, gingerly sort of walk out of the room, out of the living room into the bathroom. As I'm doing this, once I get up, uh, the figure does this. Shut the fuck. The figure's, the figure's goofy? Like an NPC in a game?

Like walks up, walks up, and then just starts, like, walking into the corner. No, I hate this so much. And then, and wasn't like, like, walking into the corner, but was just kind of like jirating in place. That's kind of, like a glitch almost? Yeah, kind of like a glitch. So, um, I went to the, I went to the restroom. I urinated. I washed my hands.

I really did. It's part of the anecdote. Wash your eyes. What the hell's going on here? You saw a ghost before me? I came back and there was nothing there. But it was, it was really, it was the most vivid. akin to a paranormal encounter I ever had

and it was just last night. Isn't that wild? In my own domicile. Did you fall back asleep? Yeah. It's all like a fucking baby. Woke up rock hard. Was that ghost like,

you ever see that one scene from Ghostbusters? Wait, are you a woman or a girl? Let's clarify this first. Dave. Dan Aykroyd gets sucked off by a ghost at one point. So I have a theory. I think maybe this, Wags has something following him around

because the other day when Mike was editing, He said in the live edit, not in the ISO cans, but in the live edit, there was like something floating above Wig's head and then it just disappeared. I asked him to clip it for me. He hasn't sent it yet. What the fuck? What'd you do? I don't know. I got the...

It follows. I was like, wait a second. What's falling in your episode? I'm being it followed. I'm a theory. Yeah. I think that maybe was a version of sleep paralysis. You think so.

I mean, I think it's probably most plausible or something like that. But the thing is like... You were paralyzed. No. Now, I've experienced sleep paralysis many times before. that what that is is like I cannot move I'm rigid and then the figures I see are looming figures that are

entirely in shadow. It's hard to breathe it's hard to breathe and they're like right over usually like right over. Why are you telling me this shit? I'm fucking scared now. Just don't sleep over at Wax's house which you know. Yeah you're not going to don't worry about that. I wanted to not anymore. Have you looked up new houses? Like are you thinking of moving

immediate? No I'm hoping to see her again. It didn't seem threatened. Whitewater gifts. He's got like presents for her now. Wait, I'm so scared. Ghost, that's terrifying. Rochelle, one of the headgun producers here, Ranch, has a paranormal podcast and is, like, first in this sort of stuff, and gave me some guidance on what to do if I feel threatened by the ghost, like some things I can say that will just sort of, like, be gentle and hopefully

try to ward it away. So if I feel like it has to come to that, I'll do that. But also, it was probably just a weird dream or whatever, just some sort of elucidation. Do you live in an old house? No. No, not all. That's the crazier thing to me, because that's what I was thinking of at me is that don't live in an old house.

There is a little girl who died in this house. Stop. Okay. She hung herself on a chair. She was wearing a rope. Yeah. Well, I'm scared. Yeah, and that why?

You said red robes? Red and white robes. That sounds like the handmade's tail robes. It wasn't handmade style, but I get what you say. It was that sort of color way. Yeah. And you're kind of no fate. You're kind of like, boy, your sleep paralysis is you do see images in your sleep a lot.

Yeah. And I, when I sleep, I recognize sleeper. And I know that's not like a paranormal thing. This felt completely different. And also I will say that like I'm not someone who's like a big like ghost believer. I'm just sort of reporting what I observed. I'm just kind of agnostic about these sorts of things. Please don't bring her on tour.

Well, because that's the thing. Yeah, they kind of, they, I'm nervous even talking about it. I'm like, I think she could she could stick to me. If anyone's going to be it followed here other than me, it's going to be Mitch. So don't say me. What the fuck are you doing? Keep it you. It's you.

It's not me. Spirit, keep it following me. It's fine. I've already dealt with, I've already dealt with this sort of thing. I can't deal with it again. I mean, I just lost my mind at one point. And it seems like maybe, I don't know if my co-host has lost his, too, or who knows what's going on. Who knows what's going on?

But I'm a paranormal believer. Now I'm scared as hell. Yeah, that's wild. Me too. I can't watch any movie or anything that has anything to do with paranormal activity because then I will, I will, you know, convince myself that it's, it's. Wow. It's because I watched... It's New England.

I watched... What's it called? The... The... The haunting of... What's like the classic one? Hunting of Hill House? What was that fucking house?

No, it's... I'm not thinking of hunting. It's like the big one. What's kind of the big one? The exorcism of... The Exorcism of Emily Rose. I went to the theaters to watch the exorcism of Emily Rose and just like...

The whole time was like this. And, yeah. I've said this on the pop before, but I saw the ring. The ring. Yeah. In college. Is it the ring? The ring?

I think... Is it ring or a ring or? It's no ring. Whoa. I mean, that is terrible. I guess is doing the hair. Very scary. I'm scared now.

I don't like this. I don't, I'm sorry for you. That's all right. Yeah, I'm sorry for you too, but you seem really kind of chill about it. I'm just like, I was just sussing it out of just like, you know, it's kind of like almost like, hey, there's a mountain line there. What's going to happen? Okay, don't actually feel like I'm in imminent danger, you know, so I'm not going to

do anything to provoke it. I'm just going to try to remove myself from the situation. That's kind of where my head was at. but I certainly recognized that it was fully conscious and I could move like I was fully conscious so it was really strange. Damn. And she was goofy?

She was doing a little goofy while. No, she, no, I didn't, if I acted it out in a goofy way, I did not mean that. What it more meant was like a little spastic. Like, it's kind of like an end up, sorry if that's an ablest word. So it's terrifying.

Yeah, it was just kind of like moving, you know. It looked fast. Yeah, yeah. It was weird. Unnaturally. You guys see if Mike has this clip because I, I asked him for it. He hasn't answered me yet,

but I'll let you know. You think the ghost got him? Oh, fuck. I try to keep me quiet. I should have left you at home. Hope you're okay, Mike. Dogs are good for stuff like that. I'm happy I'm sitting next to you.

Yeah, I think that's good. I think that's good. They say cats are good for stuff like that. Cats are good for stuff like that. Yeah, well, I know. They'll ward them away. Yeah, it's always good when you're in your house by yourself and the cats both look at something and you're like, oh, cool.

What the fuck is that? What the fuck is that? She'll just, like, sit up and stare into a corner, like, all at attention. And I'm like, what the fuck are you seeing? Who is here? That was the thing. So there's, like, when she went, she was, like, it was just, like, locked in on the corner.

But it was kind of a, you know, as akin to is, like, the end of, to reference of the horror movie, a Blair Witch Project, you know, how that there's, like, the guys just kind of standing in the corner. Yeah, this kind of would look like. Terrifying. Yeah. I want to see a ghost.

So good. So follow. Yeah. I can go that way. Stay away from the past. Stay with me or go to Amelia. The Massachusetts people got pretty quiet. Yeah.

Yeah. Massachusetts is pretty, I mean. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, we don't fuck with that. We know the deal.

Yeah. Anyway, Mitch, I want to share that with you on the pod because I need to have a reaction to it. Yeah, I don't like it. Yeah. I don't like it. But, you know, everything will be fine. Everything will be fine. I might have some leftover holy water.

I did throw so much of it around my house. Yeah. Maybe I have sage left. Whatever. I'll get some new stuff. You have some more of that Amazon basics, Holy Water you ordered? I do. It worked.

You might need some yourself. Did you order Holy Water on Amazon.com? I did. Look, I've talked about it before. I went a little, I got sick with COVID, and then I had, you knew about this,

where I had like a vertigo and all this other stuff going on. And then I, I thought my house was wanted. Yeah, okay. But now Wise has also thought it's, I don't think, yeah, sounds like it's not that crazy.

Sounds like you were just. Maybe you passed it to a lot. Yeah, true. It could be. Possibly. No, I don't know. I don't think so. I'm happy to accept that burden if that's what happened.

Well, thank you, Wags. Keep it. Wow. We're going to be pals. She'll be my slimer soon. Just unexplained we're friends now. The sequel. You should check that Ted Serendos' comedy picture and see if she's in there.

She might be in there. I think she's in between Bill Simmons and Dave Chappelle. She had the funny walk. I mean, it was a funny walk. It was a pretty funny walk. I'm scared. I don't like that you told me. I wish you never told me.

That is my true. Well, I'm sorry. I agree. I thought we were going to just talk about some munchkins and stuff. And all of a sudden now we're not worried about being haunted. We'll get there. But I apologize. I did not realize our guest was also going to be spooked.

Honestly, henta virus is less scary. Henta virus? Is that what it's called? Oh. Henta? Hanta. Hanta. Couldn't agree more.

Couldn't agree more. Hentavirus. Hentai virus. That's what you're looking for. Yeah. I've gotten some of those. Gotta be careful what a zip files you open. Wait, it's haunted virus?

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, it sounds like haunted virus, which is, it sounds like haunted virus. It does. Yes. I thought it rhymes with Santa. Hanta virus? Hanta virus, like fanta.

I think that's your New York accent. That's your mom telling you about it. You can't before the hanta virus. My mom called today, and she had me on speaker in the background. I heard the news talking about like more like hanta viruses spread like it was like and I was like this feels that I don't like the sound of this. Although I would honestly another another pandemic is better than what's happening to you. I couldn't agree more.

Wow. I couldn't agree more. Too scary. Yep. Too scary. I mentioned you got a drop to play. I'm going to hit him with a drop. Ooh.

I just got some election results. Trump has just won the state of Carl's Jr. Carl's Jr. I'm going to have to give it to Carl's Jr. And I know I say hot dog weird. everyone points it out. Hot dog. Hot dog.

A short but sweet one, I'll say. What up, chat? Count drop. That's it. What up, chat? Countropula. To the point. Yeah, to the point.

That's good. We like that with drops. Drops at birdfuck.com. That's a drop. Cool. That's a drop. Sick. It was cool.

You changed the whole tone of the show for me. We'll mix it up. We're going to change things. We're going to change things right now because we're going to introduce our guests. My heart is racing. An actor and comedian from Hacks

and American Dad. Pilin Pyrriss is here. Hi, Alyssa. I have had a lot of drinks. Hello, happy to be here. Thanks so much you're making time for us. We, we, this episode is releasing as scheduled. We'll see if it, if it stays that way, but as scheduled the day after your birthday, June 10th. So, so, so happy early birthday now, happy belated birthday upon Ruth. Thank you so much. Is there anything better than the day after your birthday, too? The pressure of the birthday's done. You're starting a grand new year. You've just kind of been filled with love. You've had your cake. You feel like the pressure of what should I do for my birthday is done. And now you're just,

looking at your fresh year ahead. If it's a milestone age, you've maybe made peace with that. You've made peace with that. You've crossed over. Here we go. Totally. Right. Wow.

So right now, when you're listening to this, I'm having a great day. That birthday cake is digested. It's going into the toilet at this point. Totally. Totally. Mm. Yep. So as was alluded to before we formally introduced you, you are also from New England.

Before you decide to scare the wits out of us. Yeah. The Boston area. What's up with the dust? dolls over there. I don't know. Some haunted dolls showed up here. Something different.

Yeah. Some haunted dolls are at headgum studios. I don't know what those have to do with anything. This is not good. Not good. This is not good. Not good. This is not good.

Yeah. And then Ryan, our intern, was like, they're nice. And so he's going to take him home. Dear God. He also tried a munchkin for the first time. He did. I know. Yeah.

Yeah. And then he was like, donut holes? And we're like, they're munchkins. Yeah. Yeah. And then you apologize to me for saying I looked like sweetums, which I guess hasn't come out yet. No, it's out. It is out.

Okay. So where are you from specifically? Okay, so I'm from Seekonk, Massachusetts. You know where that is? I do know, yes. Okay. So it's like very, yeah. Well, their conk is a is a, is a, uh.

Wait, guess how it's spelled. So Massachusetts, guess how C-C-C-C-L-I-I-I-M-K. I'm going to guess S-E-A, C-O-N-C-H. What if I told you both parts of that were wrong? I mean, I believe you. S-E-E-E-K-O-N-K. I love that. Isn't that nice?

I mean, that's phonetic. It's just, Seacom. Totally. Yeah. Yeah. I like to think it probably started as SEA's, and then they were like,

now, forget that. We're just don't see a con. Yeah. Yeah, but it's right near Rhode Island. So I kind of grew up on the, on the border of Rhode Island and Massachusetts. Southern Mass. Yeah, Southern Mass.

Where is Rhode Island in relation to New Hampshire? I'm just trying to geolocate myself. What the hell? It's south. It's like you have to go through Massachusetts and through Boston to get to Rhode Island. Got it, got it. So Rhode Island, then you're going to Connecticut,

then New York. Got it. Yeah. What are you trying to get out of me? I want you to look at your phone. Did you text? What happened? I didn't want to draw attention to it.

I wrote a joke for a minute. Okay. You wrote a joke for a miss. Hey, you know what I'm going to say? Yeah. When I see conk, I eat it. Isn't it see conk? Yeah.

You changed to see cock? Conk. Okay. I didn't say when I see cock. I eat it. That's a good bunch of. Yeah. I said when I see cock.

I see conk, I eat it. Oh, you see, okay. I say when I see cock, I eat it. I thought you said, that's what I thought. Well, that sounds like an Amelia Joe. When I see cock, I suck it. Is that fair? Yes, right.

Suck it would be better. But now we've changed so many elements that it maybe does not resemble the town anymore. This is where we're not at the roast of Kevin Hart right now. When I see conk, I eat it. Kong. Yeah. Have you ever had conk before?

I've had conk. Yeah. I thought it was a shell. It's conch is actually It is in a shell But there's like a meat in there I'm surprised you're not Because it's a it's a key west

I mean it's like Florida thing I've had it I actually remember it was on a family vacation We went snorkeling I remember where what biome we were in But yes there was conk And it was like one of those things where like We were on the boat

And then some of the boat workers Like dove off the side And like went down and got conk And then brought it up And then like scraped out fresh conk and then they made like a sauce and like mixed it up with it and we just got a little bit of cold. So you ate some raw conk. And you know it's fucking good.

I was like eight years old, but I was like I like this. Okay. Yeah. Because it's usually conk fritters, right? That's like a big thing. Yeah, I think it's a thing. I mean, I don't think you can have it any way you want. Are clam cake something that are existing?

Like, do you know what a clam cake is? I do via Mitch. Okay, okay. Oh, yeah, yeah. Because that's basically just a donut with clams in it, which if. Yeah. Yeah. Stuff clams are stuffies as you.

Stuffies, yeah. Yeah, but those are different, right? I'm talking about like a clam cake. Like you're on the beach and you get a clam cake? Like a crab cake? No, it's not a crab cake. No, no, no. Sure, I feel like I've had some versions.

It's literally a donut, but then it has like chunks of- Especially popular in Rhode Island. Oh, maybe I don't know what that is. No, it's like a donut, but then you eat it and it's kind of savory and it has chunks of clam in it. Wow. That sounds good. Yeah, it's really nice.

It's chopped clams flour and some eggs milk and a little bit of clam juice and it's deep fried until golden brown. Amelia always gambles on fish. This seems right up your alley. That's pretty good. Yeah. Seekonk. I eat.

It worked so well when she delivered it. Yeah, why didn't you say that for yourself? She writes jokes for me. I like being a Mitch's ghost writer. Get out. Get out of here. Oh, man. I can't help but think.

I'm just too, I'm too scared for you. We don't even talk about it. Do you have a dog? No, no. It could be time. It could be time. I think so. I think this could be time to get a pet.

Or just get down on all four. Wars and Barker next time she's there. I can do that. So, okay, so you're from, you're from Seacong. Yes. You're, you're near Rhode Island. Yes. You're spent, this is basically like your whole youth is spent in New England.

Totally. And beyond, like, because my parents also grew up, my mom grew up in Rhode Island, my dad grew up in Lowell. Oh, wow. So it was like, a whole family lived in these regions. So I did not really go far. Right. Yeah, everything of mine was within these states.

So you're vegan now, but like, what, like, when you were, when you were, when you're growing up? What were your favorite New England bites? I would say, mom's here. She's like, what do you want to do today? I go, let's go to Friendly's. You get a cassidia at Friendly. I loved the cassidia at Friendly so much that I had them, and it would just get a cheese cassidia. And I made them tell us the recipe so my mom could make it. And she would always try to make it. And it never, it never quite was as good as the one at Friendly's. Some fries, a little bit of a ice cream sunday, caramel sauce. Friendlies. Why just had it? I have had friends.

What did you get? We got a fribble. That's right. We got a Sunday. I bet we can look at it. I bet it's on the Do Boys Wiki what we got, but that was on a tour show. You were kind of mean to it. I was in a sour mood.

It's true. And then because we had to, we went to, we got to. How can you be at a sour mood of friendlies? I mean, the ice cream has a smiley face on it. And we also got that Sunday for him. We got them to smile that smiley face Sunday. Do you have a heart? Do you have a beating heart in there?

You did get a chicken cassidia. I did get a chicken cassidy. Okay, so we got the savory side as well. Okay, so we got the savory side as well. Yeah. You got a burger, salad, and the Friendly's Conehead Sunday. Nice. Good order. Good order. Do you have a favorite place you've been to in that region that you had?

Do you guys go to Newport Cremery? We've not been a Newport Creemer. That's a good one to go to the awful awful. Oh, I'm in. That's like a nice milk chick. And then I don't know if this is a regional thing too, but my godfather owns this place called Eats. And they sell hot weaners. Is that a thing? Hot weaers where it's like hot dogs and then with with like meat and onions on top?

I fucking love the sound of that. Yeah. So that's delightful. That would probably be my big thing. Is that in Rhode Island or is that in, okay. No, that's in Seaconk. That's a Seacom. That's a Seaconk.

That's a Seaconk, but it's also a Rhode Island thing. Like it's, yeah. Is Seaconkonged to the bay? No, it's not. No, it's not. Yeah. Yeah, that's what's, I mean, it's certainly close. You know, you're close enough to water, but now it's not like a beach town.

Quincy where Mitch is from. is it has some lovely beaches. It's true. You're more. Yeah, sure. Oh, it has some beaches. How about that? Yeah, I don't know.

I'm not excited to swim in. No, I mean, you wouldn't swim in. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I wouldn't swim in, like, a lot of the beaches off of Long Beach, I wouldn't swim. And there's some, but I mean, like, it's, you know, it's just nice to be near water. Definitely. You go to Nantasket beach to swim, if that's, if that's, in nearby. Yeah.

But, uh, are you, how far is he conk from, like, starting the route down the Cape? So, growing up, it was like, we never went to the Cape because my parents were obsessed with how much traffic there was to the Cape. And then I found out it was like an hour and a half away. When I was an adult, I'm like, that's so close. But they were obsessed with it being like so far because of the traffic. So we never went. But now my mom basically lives there.

Oh, no way. Yeah. After all that. We had a place down sandwich growing up sandwich, sandwich mass. But then I grew up going to Lake Winbosaki in New Hampshire. Now, I also because of, because of Rmondi, Wags. Everybody, Rommande. Romadi had a place up there.

And so I would, I went to, like, we maybe had a crossover up in Lake Winipasaki. Maybe. It's possible. Wow, yeah, no, I love Winnipecati. Man, that's a nice. I think I choose Lake over beach. You choose Lake over beach. Interesting.

Lake less scary. Lake less scary. Oh, man, I don't know. Brain amoebas are terrifying to me. I don't want to fucking brain a meal. It's not going to happen in Lake Winipasaki, my man. You don't think so? There's no amoeba's there?

See, I don't even know what this is, and I'm nervous. Like, way too much gasoline in the water. I mean, it's also just, it's like a huge, isn't it like, like, like, when a Pissaki's, like, huge, gigantic. And I think that, I think those things happen in like smaller bodies of water, don't they? It's like, well, yeah, I don't know. I mean, it's like microbes can be in there, the brain amoeba thing. And I think it's extremely rare, obviously. But it's like, they'll, like, inter through your nose while you're underwater and then they'll burrow into your brain and then just take over, you know, like a parasite.

Gasoline and sunscreen and, like, dirty diapers. You're fine. Yes. I'm not saying it's a dirty lake. It's just like everybody goes there for the summer. So everyone's in the water all summer. Yeah. Is this a place for people like flashed a tithes or?

I'm sure on parts of it. Absolutely. I'm sure there's been some titty splash. I'm like, let's remember about like Lake Havasu. Like that was like that was like that was what kids would say is like in Arizona. It's like you go there like girl like ladies will pull up their fucking bikini tops or whatever. And it's like and never got.

No, yeah. We'd go there for Boy Scouts and we'd always be on the lookout. Yeah, of course. And then but that, but I associate. like lakes with like partying and like sort of like, you know. You're parking the boat. Exactly. Yeah.

And for me, I associate with like the beach fronts, the oceans with just chilling, which is like, it's just different vibes. But also like I grew up in Long Beach, so we're going to the beach all the time. We're like that was like. Hold on now. She's also by the beach. Well, you're close enough to this. No, I'm, yeah, it was close to like Narragansett.

I just, I just search brain amoeba, Lake Winipas. Oh, good. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.

Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Oh no. Oh no.

Yeah, I'm actually back on ghosts. I would go ghosts now over brain amoeba. Mitch, don't do it to me. You look scared. No specific active cases or warnings have been issued specifically for Lake Winipasaki recently. Oh, the recently hurts. Are you reaching the AI summary? Yes.

Go a step deeper than the AI's. Bacterial alerts for New England lakes and rivers. So I guess that I guess I'm going to, all right, you know what I'm going to do? Has there ever been a brain eating amoeba? The recently makes me think. there has. Yeah. We're going to find out.

Okay. Here we go. I would still choose amoeba over. Over ghost? What happens with the amoeba? Would we lose brain fully just a little bit? It's a death sentence. Yeah,

your brain's getting liquidified. Between the years of 1962 and 2022, there were no cases of brain amoebas anywhere in the state of New Hampshire. Hey, there you go. So I think you're okay. I think maybe this just hasn't been updated since 2020. Is that where that lake is in New Hampshire?

Yeah. It's in New Hampshire. Okay. This is the growing up in California where the state is so sprawling and an hour and a half drive is like might be your commute. Right. The New England, the hyperclustered New England geography always fucks with me. Of course.

It's like, we just go like 20 minutes away. We're in a different state. Exactly. And that could just be like where we get dinner. I hiked across Rhode Island with my dad. So Rhode Island is like, it's 72 miles. Wow. It's very, it's very small.

How long got hiked to it? We split it up. So I think it was like force. We did force effort hikes. But it's like you could technically probably do that in a couple days. Were you camping? Were you? We weren't.

We had like a whole process where we would drop, we'd like drop both of our cars here, get in one car, come here, hike from this point to that point, drive back to that. Oh, that's fun. Yeah, yeah. What a hoot. Yeah, but it's really small. So everyone in Rhode Island, you know, knows each other. It's very small.

I'd like to hike across something. Right? Seems like a blast. Because you can do it on. You and your new friend go hike anywhere. Away from him. Are you, like, are you a walker? I'm a big walker.

So the great L.A. walk. I don't know if there's a thing you're aware of. This happens every year. I've done it two years in a row. Their buddy, Alan McLeod, a molasses boy who's got the walking about podcast. And it's a walk from- Didn't he like coming jeans or something last night? Didn't something weird happen or?

Wait, something happened. Did someone have to buy clothes? That was, that was, I think, yeah, I think that was last time or that was, it might have been this previous year. But yeah, Alan's, Alan was doing some, making some content for his podcast and there's Oh, my SD card is full. So we went into a best, like, found a best buy. And like me and Gabrison, Eva Anderson are waiting for like a half hour while.

He's like shopping for the best. Some DVDs. And he comes out. I was like, I bought the wrong one. God bless him. But, but. Okay, so the great walk. It's basically like a, like a essentially a half marathon length walk from downtown

L.A. starts in, I think it started in not MacArthur Park. Which one? What did you buy? I bought one millibat. You can only record like one picture on it. I think it was one of those things where maybe he needed like a micro SD card.

He bought a regular SD card or vice versa. He just bought something that wasn't compatible with his equipment. Yeah. Anyway. Micro SD cars are very common, by the way. Just so people. It's a very common thing. So we start, you start somewhere

in downtown L.A. and then you just go towards the coast. The first year I did it was from USC to UCLA, the two college campuses and the U.S.C.'s in downtown, UCLA's in Westwood. Sorry, my God. The second year, it was from it was from downtown all the way to Santa Monica.

Nice. So it's like you get to go all the way of the beach. And are you ever crossing highways? Like, is it... You're just walking on sidewalks. So there are some stretches where you're like, not fording a freeway. There's a route.

But there are things where you're just like, oh, this is just a heavily traffic street. And, you know, this stretch is not particularly hospitable to pedestrian traffic. Yeah. But it's great. If you're a walker, you should do it. I would love to do it. Okay, that sounds funny.

I love to walk. I was a runner, but now I just, now I just walk. Well, you were a runner. I was a runner? Was this an injury thing that got you out of it? Was it age? Because for me, I recently did a half marathon with my dad and my brother. No way.

Yeah. But, I mean, like, I don't run regularly unless I'm training for something because it's just so much wear and tear in your fucking body. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I was like a sprinter and then I tore me. Your sprinter! Wait, what, what distances?

One, two, three, four. Oh my God. Yeah, yeah. Those are very different races. Yeah, they're different races, but they're all kind of the same, which is honestly, you're just going full out on all of them. Just that, you know, you're just kind of going full out. Sounds like you don't believe her.

The 400. The 400 seems like the toughest distance. That's brutal. That's the worst one. But again, yeah, once, yeah, once I was like, oh, I just have to go as fast as I can that whole time. Mitch, you know what the 400 is? The 400 meter, you piece of shit? Yeah.

What the fuck are you asking me? Do you know what the race is? Yeah, one, two, three, four. Perfect. No, in terms of distance, it's a full lap. Do I know how long how 400 meters is? It's a full lap around the track and a full sprint. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it.

That's fucking tough. Yeah, it's hard. Yeah. I'm not saying it's easy. Yeah. Except I think I could do it pretty fast. I was so, you know, I thought I was so fast. I was so like whatever.

And then I saw that someone just broke the world record for a marathon. Yes. And they were based, this guy was basically for the whole marathon doing like not that far off from my pace for the 400. Whoa. He finished under two hours. It's crazy. It's crazy. It's basically it was like four minute, 34 second miles for, for 26 miles in a row.

It's unbelievable. And my best time was 59 seconds for the 400. So that's, he was doing what? 63. What was this final time? He said per mile? I think it was like 434. I forget what exactly the figure was. So then literally he's doing, yeah, like, it's so crazy. That's basically full on sprint. That's, that is insane.

Mitch, I have to. Oh, my God. That is so crazy. That's so, that's awesome. I'll admit, I couldn't do that. No, come on, man, you could. You could. Don't sell yourself short. You know, I don't think I've broken 10 minutes on a mile. You know this that I'd skipped. We, you could skip, you couldn't skip gym, but you skipped gym and at the end of the year you had to make up your gyms and then our our gym teacher was

like so like you're done with classes your senior year yeah so you're done with class your senior year and say you got to make up all these gyms that you like skipped because we just like didn't go or we were like went you know we'd left school we skip we're skipping school whatever okay okay okay and he was like I'll cross off the rest of your gyms you don't have to do anymore if you guys can do a mile like in under 10 minutes and it was me and my kiss and chankton and they like finished They finished and then it was me And they were like, it was very I mean, it was

It was very embarrassing But like Chankton was behind me like pushing me Trying to like make me get under 10 minutes Which I think I did And it might have been like a let It might have been even 12 minutes for me Who knows how long it was But I haven't broken 10 minutes on a mile

On a long time I'm not trying to do that anymore I'm not a person your age Yeah Yeah I don't When I was a boy You're trying to impress

Sometimes I have dreams of being a young I've said this before, being a young boy and running fast again. I think that that's... That's cute. That's terrible. Yeah. Maybe when I'm dead or something I can do, I can... You know, it would make you run fast.

Stop putting this on me. It's on him or Amelia. Whoever wants it. Not me. One of us. Yeah. I can't believe this. It makes me feel like you are proof...

You're fucking with me. I'm not fucking with you. I told you on the podcast intentionally because I knew you'd get a reaction out of you. But this seriously happened to me last night, and I've been thinking about it all day. This is like the time you told us some guy had a 10-inch dick. What? What are you talking about? You told me a certain guy had a 10-inch hog.

What? A guy we know? Whigs. Whigs. When was this? This is in Seattle. We played a prank from it. Oh, yeah, yeah.

That wasn't a break. Oh, now you remember. That was a prank. That was a ring. But this is not that. And we all teamed up on that. We ahead of time conspired, and then we all converged on your hotel room. We're like, we have to tell you this.

And they were like, this guy that we all know, he's like, it turns out he has like a tennis chick. And I was like, what? And I was like, there's no fucking way. There's no way. That was fun. I said I was going to kill myself. When we told him, we were prank him, he told us he, he told us he. felt relief as if he had just found out of a loved one

was free of cancer. And I have had a loved one who has had cancer. I know how it would go. And then like the at Follows curse, we tried to pass it on to Susser, but he never bit. He just was never to debate. Well, here's the thing is,

well, you never really have, yeah, he's never really tried to get it. But now he's going to listen to it. Because he sometimes will listen to episode. Yeah. He's going to listen. He's going to listen to this one. The Dodiac, that's him listening.

The Dodiac will let him listen to this one. Oh, God. We're going to fucking end Munch madness for fuck's sake. We'll figure it out. So, okay, so you're running, you're running 100, 200, 300, 400, 400, 100, 100, 1, 3, 3, 4. Yep. What, like, is this a, I assume you're a teenager for this stretch. Yes.

Does this go into college? Yes. Okay, so you're running in college, wow. I was all American. You're all American? Come on, come on. That's unbelievable. I know, but then it was a, yeah, I did it very intensely.

I didn't really drink in high school, my teammates. We were very, like, intense about it. And then I went to college, and then I, after my freshman year, I, start doing improv. Wait, where'd you go to school? I went to Middlebury in Vermont. So I just kept going up the, up the coast. So you were all-American in college?

In high school, in high school. In high school, okay, what distance? In the 400, but four by four. Oh my God. And honestly, I was really held up by, like, I was fast, but I had teammates who are way faster. So I think I would not have been all-American on my own. Still, I mean, that's not, that's an accomplishment.

It was, yeah. Did you go out through college? No, I did it literally my freshman year. And then I was just, I mean, I was just a big rule follower. So I was just like rules, structure. And then once I went to college and realized like, oh, I don't really have to do this. This is bad news.

You guys are going to start bonding. He loves rules. I love rules. Yeah, same. And so, but then once I went to college, it was kind of nice to be like, oh, but I don't have to do this. And then what do I actually like? And then that's when I started doing improv. And I was like, oh, I like, I don't dread.

Like, I would pray for rain. You know what I mean? And then I just always wanted, I would be like, I hope I break my ankle, you know, because I didn't want to run. That's fascinating when you're good at something, but you don't want to be doing it, which is a very, like, kid brain sort of thing. Totally, and I don't even think I was doing. If you, I would have, I would have, I would have, I would have, uh, I would have broken

your ankle. Nancy Kerr. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I tanya would have kind of gotten. Is that the guy who did it? It is, played by Paul Walter Houser, I believe, in the, uh, is that who he plays, Jeff Galooley? Yeah. Um, I got that audition.

I didn't, I did, I never read for it. So there we go. What do you mean? You were just like, no, I don't, I don't. Yeah, I thought the, I think that movie sucks. Oh, shit. Oh, man, PWAH is going to hit you with a swanton bomb. That's all right.

There's other stuff I've done that sucks. Yeah. Do boys. I know you're right. This episode, total snows. What is your, okay, because what I remember about that, and I was not running competitively, but I was running avidly when I was like that age and, you know, consistently doing half marathons and marathons. High school. No, no, in college, in college, early 20s.

And I just remember my body was just a furnace. Like, it was just burning calories. I could not eat enough. And I imagine you, like, especially competing at a high level, you were just like, would you just eat whatever? Yeah, especially because sprinting is really a lot of- What the fuck is Jemmy looking at? She just got up and started looking.

You know, I'm realizing that, like, last night we were recording, she was staring really intently at me. Well, she was, she was like staring at down. Like right in my eyes. Look at what she's doing right now. I mean, that is her. That's what she's what she's. is at home and I'm like, what the fuck do you see?

Yeah, but she was staring at me and that was before I went home. She's so cute. Maybe something's falling you around. Oh, that's wild. Maybe you should keep jemmy with you for a few days. Oh, my God. What a dream. Fuck that.

She's coming home with me. Bitch is going to be an army of dogs and cats. Hell yeah. I'm fucking, I, I, I, I, I, that's good like that too. Yeah. Cats were off bad stuff. So, so, so, so what is your, you? You're fine.

Oh, yeah, but it was a lot of lifting. A lot of lifting, okay. So when you're lifting that much, yeah, I don't need, I did not think about food. I did not think about, I was just like, yeah, eat whatever I can. Are you more of like a- Was the guy's name, Jeff Galooly, by the way? I just wanted to make sure. Yeah, it was Jeff Galooly.

You got it correct. Okay. I would have correct. I just knew, I just, I feel like I never knew his name. I was just like, yeah, it's just. I would have great. It's like you know the answer and everything. No, I just know, I know, I happen to know it was Jeff Galooly.

I do know that detail. Is he in love with her? Or was he just kind of a hired? Probably in a way that the big guy is always in love with her. I think the other guy, because it was like, the boyfriend hired Jeff Galooly, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I think that was more just like a hired good. Oh, okay, okay, okay.

They really put the blame on Jeff Galooly and I Tanya, like the guy who's dead. Yeah. Well, you can't, here's the thing, you can't defame someone who's dead. Yeah. So maybe they, maybe he got the, yeah. I learned that in a writing job. I learned that by seeing Michael just recently. If you ever want to make something up about somebody that is not legally actionable

or just insult somebody that's not legally actionable, go after a dead person. Wow. Impossible to fame of dead. Yeah. It's really dark. It's dark. But it's good to know. And you wonder why the ghosts are coming.

She's like, you offended my father. When you are any adult... I mean, just a coli's daughter. It's a little bit of his daughter. Hey, he was a hired gun. He did what he had to do to feed the family. Madison, Galilee. She's also a ghost now.

That's a real bummer. So what are you when you're eating indulgent food? Like what is this? And before the year when you're vegan, what are you going? Well, so again, and, you know, so high school, I'm eating whatever. I'm eating everything and anything. I'm big pasta family, big pasta dinners. I'm having spaghetti and meatballs.

We're having chicken cup of mine. I'm Greek. So a lot of Greek food in the house. house. We almost reviewed a Greek restaurant. That's right. We almost did. Nick the Greek.

Nick the Greek. I think it's great. Oh, okay. That's an endorsement of Nick the Greek. We had a great time. We went there with our buddy Becky Feldman. I think Nick the Greek is fabulous. And I also think that we are in a Greek desert here.

So I think there's also, it's a, there's also just not a lot of options. So if I feel like affordable Greek food, that's kind of the spot to go to there. There used to be Papa Christos, which was the best. Papa Grisos is great. It closed. It closed. I know. Well, they had to put those.

put some five-story condos with a sweet green and a fucking yoga works on the ground level. Exactly. And everywhere else in L.A. Papa Griso said that they were going to like open some sort of thing and it just has never happened. It's never happened. Papa Grisos was so fun. So fun. He's always there.

Yeah, yeah. It was so nice. And Jarl rule did a commercial for it. Right? Is that who it was? Really? Right. I think it's Jarl rule.

That sounds right. I think there was something like that. I don't know if that was like a bit or what. We got a couple of good, well, Mediterranean, not Greek specifically. Because look. Yeah, like Mediterranean. I mean, I don't mind it, but it's like if I'm craving, like, home-cooked feeling of Greek food. But again, now I've just gotten into cooking Greek food, which has been a real good thing.

Okay. Yes, that's been a real nice. There's a place next to the Los Phyllis 3 called, there was a place called El Greco Cafe, and I love it. Oh, it's no longer. It's no longer there. But you got sidewalk grill, which is Mediterranean-y, and then you got, noof. There's fantastic. There's, there's, like, great high-level restaurants.

Yeah. If you're not trying to, if you're just like, I want, you know. Also, Nick the Greek always says a buy one, get one. I think they always have a buy one get one. Love that. That is nice. You see that on the Postmates app? You see a Bogo?

You see a bogo? Yeah, whatever. I fucking do that all the time. Maybe I got to start doing Nick the Greek for dinner. It's a good dinner. Yeah. What do you think about Spitz? We compared Spitz?

I like Spitz is bad. But again, I just feel like there's a very specific thing about Greek for, like, lemon potatoes. I'm like, Spitz is great, but it's great. Great. But if I'm huge. feeling for real Greek. You want some lemon drops? I want some lemon drips soup, although that has eggs in it.

But again, because I'm vegan, that helps me now. So I try to make all the recipes I grew up with vegan. Oh, there you go. So as you alluded to, I mean, there's great Mediterranean food. There's great Persian food. There's great Armenian food in L.A. But Greek food, that's interesting to hear that it's kind of like, you know, not really present. I only think of places like Astro Burger, which are like a burger restaurant that's

Greek-owned. Definitely. Totally, yeah. Have you run of that Greek place that's on a, What's that little nice street where they're at? Largemont. Yeah. I have been there. That's good, too.

Again, I would maybe put that as a little higher. Yeah. Higher price-point quality. When they light the cheese on. I got a question for you. How are vegans doing on feta? On feta. There's great vegan feta.

Oh, wow. Great vegan feta. Okay. We are in a wonderful error right now where I basically want for nothing. I can have every, I make chicken cup of mal, which is a dish I grew up eating every Monday. You'd swear you were eating chicken. What do you make it with? I swear you were eating chicken.

I got to think of the brand. Okay, green bag, and it's just like chicken breast vegan. This is a plant-based chicken. And it's like, it's unbelievable. And this feels new to me. Maybe they've been around, but. Is it daring? Daring.

Wow. It's unbelievable. Thank you. It's unbelievable. So, yeah, I can still kind of make everything. So you, so, like, that's maybe a thing where you're almost just kidding. I imagine the chicken, I'm not super familiar with this, but it's like a shredded sort of like, you know, poached or boiled sort of chicken.

And so, like, it's almost like texture, protein more so than you're actually like, like, you can cover it up a little bit with all the, uh, the, with all the sauce with the soup. Exactly. And then the smell, it's like, yeah, lots of lemon, lots of tomato, lots of cinnamon, salt, pepper, onion. That sounds delightful. Yeah. Yeah, it's really nice.

And yeah, it's just, it's, because I live here. My whole family lives on the East Coast, so I don't have any family here. So if I ever feel like, oh, I want to feel that home cooked feeling. It's nice to have that smell in my house. Is there any Greek dish? as someone who's been vegan for a decade, that you miss or that you have not been able to recreate in vegan form. I think just a classic, you know, like growing up going to Greek festivals every summer, just having like a big, you know, with the, what from the, what's it called?

The spit? Yeah, from the spit. That's, you can't really replicate that. Wow. Weggs, this is, this is New England that we're talking about. You got, you got a lot of Greek pizza. What's your condescending to me for? What's those four?

don't live there. I know, but I've been there. I also know that. Let us tell you a little something about where we're from, okay? There's Greek pizza. Pizza and subshots. Yeah, I'm aware of this. We told us a lot.

You couldn't understand it. You couldn't get it, man. It's Greek and there's pizza. It's just... Greek pizza is a style of pizza. I've gotten Greek pizza with you in New England. I believe that. And also, we went to, remember when we went to San Tarpios, which had the...

I thought you were going to say Santoro's, which was my place. Shout out if you still exist. Santoro's Greek pizza. God, it. was good. San Tarbios, which had like, you know, had skewers. It had like, um, uh, yes. Yeah. So, in addition to the pizza and it was like delightful. Oh, some calzone's Yeah. But that was, Santerbios was not like there's, there's, that's not Greek pizza, but it was like, I got, I got to take it in Nick's pizza next time you're home. Yes. Yeah. Nick's pizzas.

Like the name. That's your neighborhood one. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's great. My name is Nick. His name is Nick. Oh, that's nice. That's nice. I'm Estonian, but I like say, I like the Nick the Greek. Yeah. Come on. Pissed. It follows Mitch. No. Take it back. Come to me. Come in to me. Like an exorcist. Okay, great. Nick the cool. I'm not going to threaten you with ghosts. You already have.

Multiple times. Multiple times. You know what would happen to me if I had that experience? I wouldn't be here today. No, I know. Yeah. I think you'd have a heart attack. Yeah, I probably would die. Also, the fact that we were in there eating food for an hour and you didn't say anything, I would not be able to, I'd be telling everyone. Well, so as soon as... That's the first thing you said when I walked out. Okay.

Yeah, when I told Amelia and Emma, and the first thing, when I woke up this morning, I texted Rochelle in our group chat for a play by other podcast because... I do have another podcast? I do have another podcast. But anyway, so hold on. I didn't know. Hold on. Don't worry, don't worry.

I just included as a psych detail. You don't have to do that one. Don't worry. Because I know Rochelle likes the paranormal and it gave her a phone. full rundown of everything that happened. What is Rochelle's breakdown of this? I mean, Rochelle was like kind of like a little bit like mouth agape. I think this is genuinely like for the world, this is like the, this is like the most confirmation that ghosts exist is you seeing one. Is Wyger specifically being like, I saw a spirit? That to me is like the closest thing to like

proof of ghosts existing in my mind. And now why do you say that? Because he's not a guy who would fucking ever care. I mean, like, unless he's seeing things. He also is a crazy man. So there is, but, but. It's possible I'm seeing things. I mean, that's the most plausible explanation. My, my get played co-host, one of, one of my get-played host, Heather has,

has a story. I know. Has a ghost story where she and the woman she was dating at the time were in her old apartment, they both saw the same ghost at the same time. So like, that's like a really fucking crazy. And she's a, she's a skeptic too. Yeah, that's, wait, you live with someone? I do, yeah.

Did you call them in? Did you have a temptation to call them in? To be like, no, because I, like, she was asleep in the, like, I fell asleep on the couch and she was asleep in the bed. And so, like, I was like, tell her about it? I haven't told her yet because, like, she was just getting ready for work this morning. I didn't want to like, I'll give her the story tonight. She's not going to be, no one's going to, she's not going to be haunted. She's going to be fine.

You think I should have warned her? Probably. Your mouth is a gape. Your jaw has been dropped. Well, I will say, because why I got. has sleep paralysis, that makes me think the ghost is not real. Yes, right. Because I think people with sleep paralysis

have like higher tendencies to see, you have to see apparitions like that, or aliens even. Yeah, right. Statistically. When I had sleep paralysis, I could I only had it once ever and I thought there was a spider crawling on my wall and I could have sworn that I was a tarantula climbing down my wall.

I could have sworn that I was awake. But you're saying it did feel very different. No, I've, I've had sleep paralysis before and, you know, a number of times. It used to be a fairly, unfortunately, fairly regular occurrence for me. And like that,

you know, like, again, I just can't, can't really breathe. Don't feel like I can respirate even though you can. Body completely rigid,

like, cannot even move. If I'm, like, face down on the pillow, like, I can't even like, oh, that's so scary.

It's really scary. And it's genuinely, that in of itself is terrifying. And then when I've seen presences there, they've looked very different. They've been all in shadow. Hmm.

Okay. This is a little bit more, more humanol. Okay. How long you lived in this place? Five years, four years? Interesting. Don't like it. Wow.

It's fine. I came in here with such a jovial, upbeat attitude, and now I'm fucking scared. You're fine. No, not. I'm scared. So what's your... I used to... I rode crew in college.

Okay. Nice. So I know this... I wasn't an all-American. I was American. Yeah, you're real American. I was a real American. Hulk.

I was just, I was sorry. A lot of the morals of Hulk Hogan, I instilled it. Yes, right, right. I get too full to fuck, for instance.

That's Hulk Hogan. I had so much sushi. I didn't know this is gonna happen. His sex tape, he has much sushi. He got two full to fuck. Yeah, he was like, they kept recording? Yeah, because he like fucked his buddy's wife.

Oh. Which his buddy knew. Bob of the Love Sponge was like, fuck my life. This is the whole like thing down Gawker and then they released the tape and on the tape he said the N-word and it destroyed his career. Yeah, that's how Hogan got.

This is like how he, like, and I auditioned for Bubba the Love Spunge in a movie called Koppelg where Ben Affleck was going to be Hulk Hogan. What a pairing that would have been. Me and Affleck? Come on. It would have been great.

By the way, you listen to the new Noah Khan? No. Have you? The new Noah? Oh! It's a great album. It's just sort of a New England to the veins. It's really, really nice.

Tell me, Noah K-A-H-A-N-K-K-N-K-K-N-K-K. He's just great, and his music is just very about growing up on the East Coast. What is it like folk-y? Like, rocky? Yeah. Foke, yeah. Wow, that's cool. Yeah.

The, um, I mentioned this. It's spelled the same way as Star Trek. It is, like Rath-A-K-on. Yeah. From Nick the Greek. I mentioned this, I'm not, you're fine. I'm not going to do it. You mentioned, I...

Don't you fucking. You can't do it. It's not yours to do. You fucking piece of shit. Mitch is looking at Abelia who's sending it back here. Justering the curse at him. Back at you.

No. No. I'll take it. Just go send a direct to me. Here we go. Oh, no. Whoops. Hey, when I see a cock, I eat it.

You know. Affleck, and we've talked about this. Speaking of. In my intro. Gone girl. In my intro, I do talk about Gone Girl. Shower reflection, gone girl. So here's the thing. Our buddies on the Blank Check podcast had circulated some

intel that they had that that was a CG hog, that it's not his real hog in Gone Girl. Affleck swears it's real. And Jennifer Garner, who he was dating, like, buried to at the time, said like something like, oh, I hope they got a white angle lens,

talking about his hog. Wow. I mean, that makes... I think that would make sense for him. And it's caused him nothing but, you know, it's... Right. That's a very funny thing for also for her to be like, I hope they got a wide...

That's a very funny thing to be like... It's a nice thing for your partner to say. My partner's got a huge dick. I mean, it's the funny thing to say. That's what you want to hear. She's bragging about it on Ellen. Yeah, and Ellen, yeah. That's weird.

That's kind of weird. Sure. If I went on a podcast, I was like, my girlfriend's got the tastiest pussy in town. Well, that's a little different. Her pussy was the subject of news articles. Yeah, all right, sure. Right.

All right. Okay, so I guess that is different in a way. Yeah. But I get what you're saying. I think it would be a little aware if you said it out of nowhere. But it was like someone was asking you about it. Just now? Yeah, like just now.

Luckily, I don't have a girlfriend. Oh, I know you know, I know that you now know some lady, some random lady that who knows what her status is. Was it a girl or a young? I'm not sure. It was a diminutive figure, again, faced completely in shadow. Okay, great. Kind of hunched over and Kubrick staring right at me, but it couldn't see the eyes. And like Bunsen Honeydew, just like featureless.

That makes it, that relieves me that you say it's like Bunsen Honeydue. No, no, I was just me in terms of the absence of eyes. But like the whole face was in shadow. No, it was, should I draw it? No. I don't think so. Okay. No, I don't think we have to be drawing it.

I think we can kind of. And if you do draw it, I never. show me it. Okay. I agree. I never want to see that. I don't even like that. We're taking out a pat of paper over there.

I'm not looking at it. Amelia, I'm going to kill you. I don't have to draw it now. We get a podcast to do. Draw and show that freak. I wrote crew in college. Right, right.

Oh, right, yes. And so, uh, yeah, Wags knows this. And I guess Emma knows it too. Amelia, oh, yeah, you might know it too. You have no idea. Put your fucking pad away. This is just for me, kind of. This is just for you.

I rode crew in college. But I also had the, when you're working out and you're, like, I would row for like three or four hours every single day. I'd say at least three hours. Like we'd go down at three and then like we'd be done at six or it was insane. But like you don't even think about what you're eating. No, no, no.

No. You're burning so many calories. It doesn't matter. I truly need this. Yeah. Are you more of like. I could only imagine if I actually ate well during that time too. It would be, I would have.

Sure. I would have been in good shape. Because you threw out some ice cream parlors earlier, but then you, You're also where, like, talking some Greek delicacies, obviously. Like, are you more of, like, a sweet tooth or a savory? Savory. Savory. Yeah.

Yeah. Love it. Love it. Okay. Checks out. Yeah. Yeah. You love it.

You love it. Yeah. But I'll still get a yiro just with no meat. What do you do? Like a falafel? What do you? I don't mind flophil. But again, it's not as Greek.

So I would probably just have pita, some vegan satsiki, some lettuce, tomato, onions, wrapped out of it. Oh, interesting. Just might just lose the meat. Yeah, why not? Lose the meat. Hoppin, yeah. I have an idea.

Rank Greek mush. Hummus. Taziki. Taramosalata. You guys know about that? No. Eggs, Greek. I mean fish eggs.

Oh, wow. Okay. Babagano. I love a Babagino. I love a Greek, but I love it. It's not really too Greek. No, not too Greek. Oh, okay.

Or maybe it is, but it wasn't in my... So, okay. How about rank the Mediterranean mushes? I guess that is. So, Babaginous, hummus, Tatiki. Tatsiki over the years has really... All right, we're going to try this together.

And how about... Sadziki. Tatsiki. Sa. Zha. Zazziqi. Zatiki. Worse than we started.

Just go back to the way we're saying it. Also, I got to tell you one that's, that kind of has rocketed up my power, power rankings. Tihini. Oh, I fucking love Tihini. I love Tihini. Who knew they could make those little... Those little... seeds and this is a delicious sauce.

It's delightful. But when you classify tahini as a mush, or is that more of a sauce? It's okay if it's a mush. Mushes and sauces. We're ranking them. Yeah. What are we missing? Okay, I know what are we missing.

I know what we're missing. I'm forgetting the name of it, but it's like just the potato garlic. Um, uh, yeah, it's just, it's a potato garlic spread. That's incredible. Zog is nice. What is, yeah. Oh, Zog is nice. Yeah, I know it from Trader Joe's.

Zog. Zog. That's how I've had. Scordalia. That's it. Very good. Wow. Yeah.

Squardalia. I can't, I can't, right. Here's the thing is that I loved hummus forever. But then like. Hummus is almost, it's almost boring now because we've had it so much. It's almost boring because we've had it so much. And then also you get like a lot of boring hummus.

You do. But when you get a good hummus. Forget about it. Oh shit. What about fucking like a fetta spread? You know what I'm saying? Right. Right.

A spicy feta spread is nice. Yeah. Where do you? Like a whipped fetta? Forget about it. It's like, it's like Lebanon. It's Lebanese, and I would put that more as like almost a salad, I think. Is that crazy?

I do like it. But it does, it does come, it does, like it is, it's always, it's always, it's always with the, yeah. Yeah. Here's a question. What is the Greek mama mia? Because for Mamma Mia, Italian slang, what is the Greek version of Mamma Mia? You know what I'm saying? Oh, oh, you're not talking about the movie.

You mean like, mom, right. That's what. No, yes. No, I'm not talking about the movie Mamma Mia. I'm saying like the Italian. There's your answer. A couple folks in Hollywood, you know? The Italian term, a Mamma Mia.

Is there a Greek first? I mean, Opa, I guess. Opa. It's got to be Opa. Opa. Opa. It was pretty good. Opa.

Is there, is there no Greek expression for like, oh, my God. You know what I'm saying? Probably there is. My child, I feel my mom would say all the time. So you can speak, you can, you can speak a little Greek. Oh, okay. Wow. That's impressive.

For don't am I lao lia-a-huh. Okay. Okay. Okay. Takeata. That's fucking, that's damn good. It's, it's, it's, if you were Greek, you would like very quick, the drop off would be very quick. It's very impressive and then it's a very quick drop off of, once someone starts talking fast, I go, yeah.

Yeah, I mean, like, you know, why don't we call ice on you? What the fuck? To boys call fucking ice on me. Oh, I had, I had no idea that you were, that you could, See, just Irish, you know, all Irish for me. So no, no fun, like no grandma speaking in other language. Well, yeah, so I, you know, I grew up with my grandparents living in my house. Oh, wow.

That's fun. Yes, very nice. Yep. Yeah. Like my Italian friends, I'd like go and visit their grandparents and they'd be like, you know, nah, my mama, da, de, de, I'd be like, I don't know what that. I shouldn't have tried to do. I'd call ice on you.

That was perfect. Oh, my God. Man, if they had to come in and be like, Mitch got deported to Ireland. It would be good I mean Fuck Probably your life would be better Yeah no shit

That's what I'm saying It would be good It's not good No god You get what I'm saying Fuck ice That's what I'm trying to say Mish was defending ice

I was not defending ice I was not defending ice I did I oppose ice But we should get Mitch deported Just to teach him a lesson Shut up Shut up

You know what I just threw it out our listeners. Whoa. Wow. Yeah. Mitch put the ghost on me and then it sucked me off.

That was actually kind of nice. I'm anti-ghosts, but it was kind of nice. Did you, so, okay, so we're talking, we're talking Greek mushy. Sure, oh, right, right, right, right. We didn't rank them yet. We didn't rank them. But I mean, like, do you...

What happens when Akroyd, never mind? I was to say... When he busts in that scenario, what happens to the, you know what I'm saying? Like, does it, I think it just goes, I think the ghost disappears and it just kind of So it just goes all over him and he's like, did that even really happen? Sure, yeah, right.

Okay, fair enough. I mean, that's my assumption. Why are you taking notes, Mitch? Oh, yeah, okay. So, I mean, like, for me, no, you're fine. For me, like the, I do have a lot of appreciation. It's grown over time for Baba Ginoosh. I think Baba Ginoosh is delightful.

A nice, Babahoochia. I'm curious where you stand on something like spicy hummus, which I know is a little bit, you know. I love it. I love it. Because it's not quite authentic, but it's still fun. I love spicy everything. And I feel like even authentic dishes from like my yaya or my mom, I'm always adding some heat. So I think it's okay to just give a little variety to it because you got to have a little heat.

You sound like me. Like I'm a bit of a heat secret. Same. You a seschuan guy? I do like sheshwan, although the numbing pepper sometimes gives me anxiety. I love it. You like it. I think you have to come around to it.

I think you do get past the point where it's like a little shocking in the beginning. But then once you get past the point, I don't. There's nothing to be scared of. Right. You should be scared of what you got going on. I mean, I was going to say, seeing a spirit from the netherworld. Sesuan peppers has gotten eaten. The Seshwan's peppers make you more anxious than seeing a fucking...

A spirit, a phantom? Yes, that's the least of your worries. I do like the Mapo tofu. Setshwan impression, that's the best. That's the best. That's the best. Yeah, I'm so... I'm hooked.

Basically, anytime I come back to L.A., that's the first thing I order. Yeah, that's the thing like, it's just like... I can't do my Sezuan impression anymore. We already... Did you just text? Did you just text that? You didn't even have to. I was doing it.

I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, let's say that to Gabris. Uh, but I think that, I, I, I had thought of that before, too. Why, we've all thought, we've all, we were all thinking it. Oh, well. So, how about that?

How about, how good am I? I had never thought of that. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, you, that, that freaks you out more than, uh, the numbing spice. Wait, but what was your question before this? You were like, mush, and then you said, oh, spicy. Homest. Yeah, I don't mind it. No, I like it. I think it's okay. Yeah, I think we must adapt. We must adapt or die. We got to have a little spice. What's, what say you, Mitch? What's your favorite mush?

You lit up on the spicy feta. I did, but I think honestly, Tzzi. Tziki. Tziki. I think it's more of a Z. I think it's more of a Tziki. Z. But it's also got that Zatziki. But then you're also missing, I think, another Zizi. So Saziki. Come back. Zatziki. Yeah, Satsiki. That's nice. Okay. I think Satsiki is my favorite. Okay. It's really come up there.

It's really good. I think Trader Joe's has a great one as well. They have a nice vegan Satsiki, yep. Yeah. Oh, it's vegan there. Well, they have a vegan one and a regular one. No, because it's usually yogurt. Yeah.

I love it. It's so refreshing. It's light. It's nice. I'm a bit of a heat seeker as well. You are. Do you like Sash one? Oh, are you talking about, is this a...

No, I am a bit of a heat seeker. It's his catch phrase. It's my thing I say, but it also applies to Mitch. Yes. Mitch also likes spicy. I just don't eat as much anymore. You don't eat as much anymore. I abstain from spicy.

And is that for health reasons? For like my stomach is going to, like, is killing me. I feel like we're universally kind of heat seekers here. Amelia, I feel like is the most like me in terms of intensity. But I'm all, I'll deal with some heat as well. I'll do some spice. Yeah, why not? It kind of depends on what I'm doing for the rest of the day.

That's fair. And the next day sometimes. Now, Ben Affleck also in the movie Phantoms, by the way. Mitch, I'm glad you added that Ben Affleck was also in the movie Phantoms. We had to return to that from 20 minutes ago to add another of his credits from IMB. Mitch is like 10% here and 90% is just in his head thinking of ghosts. And what was this movie you just said? A thousand percent.

Phantoms. It's like that didn't even come from Ben Affleck. He was just going through, what do I know about ghosts? And he's like, oh, Ben Affleck's in Phantam. Hey, whoa, yeah. Matt Damon and Casey Affleck did a movie in Quincy, Massachusetts, which I auditioned for multiple times. What movie? It was called, what the fuck was it called?

I don't know. It was one of those. The Instigator. Yeah, it was an Apple TV movie that no one saw. No one saw. Paul Walter Hauser got it. That's real. That's true.

You got your role. Wow. You're losing to him a lot. Well, I lost the Quincy role. That's tough. The character was named Mitch, too, right? You're right. It's called the instigator.

It's described as a dumb guy with a small penis. Why is that in the stage direction? Look, there's, when you get auditions, you get a lot of embarrassing stuff. but a dumb guy with a small penis. I've never, at least, I've never got an audition that said with a small penis, he was like, oh, all right, I guess I'll act like I have a small

fucking dick in this, too. Methodax. Shut the fuck up. All right, take it back from the audience. Back to you. She wants it. Where do you stand on coffee? Because we're talking about it today.

I love it. I fucking love it. You got to have your Java. Yeah, got to have my Java, but I also am pretty agnostic. So I like a really, if I'm having like a latte or a, or a cortado, I like a nice coffee shop. But I'm having black coffee, I prefer a bad coffee. I prefer to go to a diner and just like fill up on black coffee. I love diner coffee. I love diner coffee.

Bigford's rest in peace. Do you ever have beverages? Biffords, of course, great breakfast spot. My mom worked at a Bickford. Really? Oh, fun. Did she bring home leftovers or? Not when I was, not when I was, she was a, was she a teacher by the time I was born?

I think yes. Oh, okay, okay. My mom and dad met while they were teachers. Nice. My mom, English teacher, my dad, a history teacher, a very, I think a very easy teacher from what I understood. And then he went to law school in his 30s and became a lawyer. My mom was a teacher at my high school.

My mom was a teacher at Sikon Kai. Yeah. My dad dot chemistry at community college. And then my mom was a nurse. Wow. The noble professions all around. My dad sold sheet metal. Okay.

How about that? That school is hell. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, someone who was talking to someone about this the other day that I just remember being a kid and he would do like cold calls. And so anytime I was in the car, there was just a binder. And I was just like reading numbers for a binder. And then he'd just make cold calls and just have people basically hang up on him all the time.

So when everyone's like, no, what? I'm like, yeah, this is this business is nothing. My dad was just used to, you know, getting cold mail all the time. Yeah. Yeah, you got to get used to the rejection. Yeah. What's that bear? When you get it, when you audition for a role that says a dummy with a small dick and you don't get it.

it's pretty tough and you were like hey at least maybe they didn't think I had a small no no no it was a dumb part it was actually too small post the note from the casting director Dick too small sorry

unbelievable Do you Isn't there like what isn't that Because I've seen it years ago Barry Levinson's first movie I think it's like Richard Dreyfus I can't remember the other actor is

who are I think there's sheet metal sales Oh, are they? I gotta watch. Is it Richard Dreyfus and Danny DeVito? That can't be right. I don't know. They're in Baltimore. I can't remember what the duo is. Yeah. I also can't pull the title.

I can't recall things anymore. I'm just fucking dumb. Davido. Okay. Tin men? Tin men. Yes, yes, yes, 10 men. I want to say pushing tin, but it was not putting ten. Tin men, yeah. Nice. I should watch. That's one movie. Yeah.

Someone gets cuckolded. I won't say who. Oh. Okay. Tune in. You got our, watch the movie. You got our listeners attention. All watching it tonight. I agree with you on diner coffee. Like for me, like, and I love like an independent diner.

Unfortunately, there's fewer and fewer out here now. Yeah. And I do like like a deli coffee. Same. Like to sit down. Deli coffee is great. But I will, I will say chain wise. I like a Denny's coffee, but I like the I hop coffee where you get a little craft where they sit it down and you can, you can pour your own.

That to me is like the ideal, just like black basic coffee. Couldn't agree more. Diner coffee is my favorite. But I got to say I kind of love non-grathed. Duncan coffee. Me too. I also love Duncan coffee. I think Duncan falls in the same category for me where it's like I can drink as like

it's what, 5 p.m. right now, 6 p.m. I'm like this will not do anything to me. There's a comfort in like the amount, which is how I feel about diner coffee. You can just kind of drink a lot of, it's pretty watered down. It's pretty, yeah. We had a phone call today because you, I think this came together late.

Sure. This episode came together late. Well, he could be completely transparent. We didn't know we'd have the studio today until like last night. Yes. And then we're going to, We wanted to get Alyssa in anyway, and Mitch was like, I can just see if she'd be available last minute.

And it all worked out. And lo and behold. It worked out great. And you had something that was going to make you unavailable for this that got canceled that made this possible. How about that? It's just, yeah. You were hanging out with Christalia.

He got canceled. The timing couldn't have been more perfect. I mean, really. Yeah. It's just all kismet. You know, that's, that is God. That is God. That's our dad's just shining down on us.

Yeah. Sending us a little sign. Yeah. I was, boy, I would be delicate to how I tell this anecdote. There,

someone, another fucking ghost story or some shit. Someone who got canceled. I had plans with, I'd never met them in person, but I knew them through social media. And they,

they had been, like, wanted to, like, meet me. It's texting. And then he died. And it was just like, never happened.

No, we were supposed to get dinner, and it was him and his partner, and then me and my wife we're going to go to a restaurant together in L.A. And the day we were supposed to have that double date, that person got canceled. It happened that day.

And I was like, holy shit. Galane Masquell and you and that spirit? Yeah, yeah. So we're there. And so I'm like, like, I'm not there. I'm like, well, I just will not do anything here. And I'm assume I'm not going to follow up with this person. I'll just never hear from them again.

We're back. Alyssa has put on the sweater. I'm back on the sweater. The heat to AC ratio in here, it's, you know, it's not good. No, you can just say it's fucking, well. No, it's good. Areas of coldness?

There may have been an edit where I disclose. who the individual was. Actually, you didn't even say... It was nothing interesting. It was not me, to be clear. I was trying out my Sajuan impression. I got in trouble. It was not me.

Yes, not you. It was not me. I would have said it was you. Yeah, of course you would have said. The amount of times you're saying it's not me is very making me think it is you. It was not me. It was not me. Mitch got canceled, so I ghosted him for dinner, but I continued to a podcast with him for six more

years. Yeah. I could also see you doing that, but not tonight, using it as an excuse to not hang out with me, basically. Look, Duncan, we got to get. All that to say coffee, you go back to coffee. Yeah. Duncan's got a great cup of coffee.

I love a Duncan iced. You know why too? It doesn't hurt you. I like sometimes as a cold, bro, I'm like, oh, it hurts you. You have to be ready for it. So I'm generally a hot coffee guy, but I do, I, you know, I'll fuck with a cold coffee on occasion. And that's where I love about you.

Yeah. Yeah, you know, I, I, like, I, He lives in both worlds. He lives in both worlds. You know, I love that about you, too. I fucking love that. You're a hot coffee guy, but you sometimes say, I'll do it. I'll do, cool.

Why not? I love that. But, but I promise, I, like, I chug cold coffee and hot coffee I will sip. So even on a hot day, I'll usually opt for something for a warmer beverage. I will say this, not all fast food coffee is good. Like, talking about trashy coffee. Like, like, some of it is, like, equivalent to diner coffee. And I put, you know, Dunkin' Donuts coffee and, and McDonald's coffee in that same bucket.

I like McDonald's coffee. But you get like a cup of coffee from like Carl's Jr. You know, Hardies, it's like this coffee sucks. It's like watery and flavorless. I can tell this was made from like crystals. Like this isn't even like,

you know, this is like Folgers crystals. This isn't even like a brood coffee. This is fucking terrible. And so there are times when I'm like, I don't even want this version. I'd rather, I don't even like Starbucks.

I'd rather have Starbucks than what I could get from like, than a cup of Burger King coffee. See, I'll say this. I would rather have. of like gas station coffee. Yeah, I like gas station coffee. I like gas station coffee. I've never had it up.

Okay, okay. Yeah. Yeah, so you're saying these places, they've got something, because I don't think I've ever probably had it now that I think about it outside of McDonald's. I don't know if I've had Burger King. I think at some of these places.

McDonald's coffee is good. McDonald's coffee, they're brewing coffee. It seems 7-Eleven coffee is good. Those biscuits? McDonald's biscuits? Oh, my God. This is very millennial later. Oh, sorry.

Is it? It is millennial late. Lady-coded. You want to take that again? Millennial Lady-Coded. Wags, this is a little millennial lady-coded. I'm moving all those in. Wigs?

Yes. I'm doing something that's a little millennial lady-coded right now. Now he's the alien. You're kind of looking off. And that I have three drinks here. Millennial ladies. That's right. Millennial ladies love the three drinks.

We learned this at one of our live shows. It hasn't been released yet, but we learned in San Jose. that the millennial ladies, what makes this coded for millennial ladies is that they love three drinks. I have to say, and I don't remember the name of it, I had the best taco of my fucking life in San Jose from a taco trucker. Are you guys going back at some point? No. No, this was kind of a one-off. I mean, we might, but it was, we had a lovely time.

It was a great crowd. We had, we had, it was a one-off. Can I also say this? The hotel we said it was haunted. It was haunted, yeah. Yeah. Do you think the ghost followed me from that hotel? Get the fuck out of here.

You a fucking Italian piece of shit. I'm realizing I'm looking at, I'm looking at, don't you do your Italian stuff at me. I'm looking at where the, the corner of that chair meets the wall, and I'm realizing it can do a better job of what this ghost was doing once they stood up on Mitch's side of the room. Is that, would that be on camera? It can be. Yeah, we can move the GoPro easily. Okay, hold on. So do you want me to, do you want me to do that?

I can recreate this. No. Okay. All right. So it was like, again, like like like, like ghosts like this staring, stood up, kind of walked over. I don't want to watch. Mike, don't watch. No, no, no. Whoa.

That's spooky. Whoa. Yeah. So coffee. It was in a corner where like a cabinet and what like met the wall. And so it was like there was a little like weird corner but it was in the corner of the room. Maybe whatever was in that spot before your apartment building was built there, someone like died in it. And she was trying to walk into the room in the other house.

I looked up your address during this record. Yeah. A man died in. Someone who lives there is on the sex offender list. A man died in a parking lot near your house, so I don't know if that's related. That seems a little bit distant. A man died in a parking lot parking lot versus like. Mike just send me the clip if we want to see it.

I see it. Do you see it? Yes. Do you see it? Okay. I hate this shit. On screen. It's on, yeah.

It's on my left house. I'm going to turn this around. I'll put it in the YouTube video. Remember how I said. that the day after my birthday was my favorite day. It's turned into my least favorite. You see it disappear as the video goes on. You ready?

Yeah. Oh, that's it? Oh, it's like right there. It's like, I don't know, it looks like someone put their finger on the lens for a second. Like the light beam thing? Yeah. Let's see it.

Show it again? So it's on it. Wager now and now it's off. It's kind of, it's like hard to see, but it wasn't in the ISO cams. It was only in the live edit. Who's the guest there? Is that Drew McQueen?

So that's the, so that. So that was the moment at which perhaps this apparition glommed on to me. Baby. Wow. Started writing me like a fucking, like I was carrying it around a baby. Baby Yoda. Like a baby Yoda. They started writing me like a grogoo.

I mean, he got mad because I was at the Grove last night seeing Mortal Kombat 2. What's your review? Fun. I hear it was fun. I still haven't seen it. A fun, dumb, maybe bad movie. So you want sometimes. Is Carl Urban is the main guy?

Yeah, Carl Urban, yeah. Is he from the, he's from the boys, right? Yes. Yeah, that show sucks. You go out for that one, but lose to what system. No, no, no, Paul. PWH has nothing to do with the boys sucking. There's other reasons.

Yeah, maybe it's loaded. Show sucks. Boys suck and sounds like the dough boys on stage in San Jose. Thank God Betsy Sedaro is there. It's true. shit. No, we turned it around. We turned it around.

I went out there with fucking, I was throwing, I was throwing fucking spaghetti at the wall trying to make anything fucking stick. You were, I think you were in your initial face of being haunted. I don't know what's going on. You got that really fun bit about the millennial woman drinking drinks. I got this really fun. That's really fun. This is, this blockbuster bit I have here.

But I have three different, I got three different drinks here today. That's right. But accidental. You ordered. Amelia fucked up really bad and also played possum You weren't responding with your order I was working all day

So I was like kind of an amazing To be fair he told us last day He was like I will not be available during the day So we knew we knew I answered in a reasonable amount of time And I was kind of trying to get us to a different restaurant I was guessing each other Like guessing what your orders would be

In case you never answered really I bet we can guess what they would order from Duncan Yeah no Amelia totally guessed to me order and did you guys I want ham on my or I went I went wild but I was we were I was on a walk with Commissioner Susser who was led out by the Dodiac and uh and uh and I was talking to you because you weren't sure if we should do a different and that like you were like oh should I do Duncan or should do something else and I was like Duncan's great it's gonna be fine I'm vegan so you know I thought well I can't eat everything on the menu is that's a problem and then I was like I'm with Commissioner Susser and you were like kind of like who the fuck is Commissioner Susser I kind of tried to explain it to you but it doesn't even make sense anyways The way you guys described it, then you had like a lot of more words I didn't understand, and then it was like,

nah, it's better to just kind of. Yeah, it's better to not. You never have to know. And then, and then I saw your text, and I had to,

like, we had to stop the walk. We had to stop it down. But I did go ham. But this, this drink was an accidental order, but, but I,

this, that is the, it's like a, a mocha deluxe. What is it? Caramel cream signature latte. That's what it is. Caramel cream signature latte.

I want it hot. You accidentally got a cold. so I got two, I got both versions of it. Oh, you know what? They taste very different. Were you? Wow. The cold and the hot one tastes very different. Which one would you prefer? I prefer the cold one. I'm usually... So see how errors can sometimes really be a beautiful thing.

It's true. It's true. Don't do it again, but it's true. Don't ever. Don't you fucking do that shit. Mitch, Duncan, as you know, was founded in Quincy, Massachusetts in 1950. Oh, my God. Hey, no, you give me a... There is. There we go. Come on. Wow.

Bitch and Alyssa are hugging. That's incredible. Wow. Mike just gave me some. We fucking. I was saying Mike just gave me more context for that clip. It was that happened at the same moment that your phone went off unprompted during the Drew McQueenie episode. You weren't touching it and it went off.

Wow. That is wild. Careful. Me. Get the, everybody. I'm saying get the holy water. Drown head down. If, if.

Higam was over like one of the gates of hell, I'd believe it. There's fucking flies in the wall. There's a rotting smell in here all the time. There were child dolls that just showed up. Child dolls. Those just showed up. Yeah, I don't think anyone knows where they came from. Yeah.

I don't like it. Anyway, it was founded by Bill Rosenberg. This is the figure behind the VIB original Duncan in Quincy. 14,000 locations in 39 countries. Sean Parker had away the donuts in 2018. It's cleaner. It's now just Duncan. It used to be Duncan Donuts.

I don't like it. I don't like it either. I don't either. I'm, yeah. It's like, Jamba did the same thing. It used to be Jamba juice. Now it's just Jomba's like, what are you doing? They all watched the social network inside that moment where Justin Timberlake is like, not the Facebook.

Yes. And they all kind of took it. Stop fucking simplifying the brand. It's interesting that is Dunkin Donuts. October 2020, it was acquired by Inspire Brands, which is one of these franchise companies owned by private equity by RORC Capital. It's like, we're hoping doughboys gets bought by Inspire Brands. I would love to be bought by Rourke Capital if we're going to sell out because we would get like a fucking billion dollars.

The amount of money they spend for these things is fucking insane. We'd drop the podcast. It would just be Doe Boys. Also in October 2020, the same year, by coincidence, the same month, by coincidence, the Doobboys reviewed Duncan with Moogie Blakelock, which is our last time we did it. That was for a rock around the clock Dober Fest. That's so long ago between. That's so long ago to. Well, you know what it is is that Duncan has remained a fixture because it just shows.

up in the tournament of champions. Oh, okay, of course. You don't need to know. And then, we'll like, we'll get in there one time. We'll periodically check in on it. I mean, I feel like it's a place we'll just grab on the road when we're tour. You know what I mean? We should make this clear.

We did not know each other. We met at South by Southwest. True. We became fast friends. Yes, we were there for Sender, the Russell Goldman's movie. Yes, watch it. Watch it. Watch it.

Which are both in. We're both in. How cool is that? Yeah. And yeah, we just became fast friends. And then we realized both from Massachusetts, both got the dead dad. do comedy and it was just off to the races. We don't like the Lakers.

Lakers suck and ghosts. We're not friends with ghosts like this guy. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. You got a lot of friends in common naturally. Exactly. Yeah.

I didn't know how we didn't have the crossover before. Yeah, it seems, yeah. Yeah. But maybe too powerful. Yeah. We're kind of unstoppable now. I would say, and I feel the same way about Mitch, is that you kind of have a,

from just having met you today and having known you from Twitter back in the day, it's like you just have a natural sort of charisma approachability to you that makes it like very, like, oh, I feel like I'm already friends with this. Oh, thank you. That's very nice. To be clear, you are not.

Yeah, no, I know, I know. I believe it. But like Mitch, you always like, like people always like you because you just come in and you're just like, hey, oh, whatever. It'd be like, hey, I like this guy. That's pretty demeaning there. I like, oh, I'm here.

Oh, me. Hey. Hug me. I like the small dick Frankenstein. Well, thank you. I appreciate it. Yes, I wonder if there is something about, yeah. It might be a Massachusetts.

Yeah, because, yeah, I don't know. Also, don't piss us off. Yeah, but don't piss us off. I know that. I've seen him. We've all seen him, mad. We know that. Wait, what did you say was your favorite local?

We were going to say pizzeria or Regina as well? Oh, good. Yeah, that's great. and the North End. And then what would be second for you besides that? That's a good question, the follow-up. You know what? You love San Tarpeos, but that's a very specific local place.

I would say if I'm picking a chain, DeAngelo. Oh, I love DeAngelo. And that, like, really impressed me. DeAngelo's growing up was a big staple in our home, and I tried to get, I was on the East Coast and for, like, nostalgia's sake, I wanted to get one, and I'm vegan. And so I was like, oh, can I get this, but without this? And they were like, nah, we don't do any substitutions. Oh, my God, DeAngelo.

And I love that. They're like, no, no, no. Chef's like the chef knows, yeah, chef knows what he's doing, yeah. You want vegetables. Especially with a sandwich, it's so easy to do that. So easy. Couldn't be easier.

Yeah, but that's a great sandwich. They really shit on Bertucci's. Bertucci's has really gone down. We had a bad experience of Bertucci's. And also, you kind of shit on Papaginos and friendlies. You've had a rough, I know. Pappuccinos, did you guys get the breadsticks? Did you get the breadsticks?

We did get the breadsticks. We did get the fucking breadsticks. Because Papaginos was fine. I actually, you know what? I think that was the most egregious one. I think that you were... We went to a bad Papaginos. No, no, you were cranky.

I was also very cranky. You were cranky as hell. Oh, God, I love Papaginoes. They're thin crust. That's kind of not that dissimilar to Pizzeria Regina in terms of crust and sauce. And then we did a show with Hodgman and Gene Greene and Wilco. And Wilco. Jeff Tweety from Wilco.

Who I'd worked with previously when I helped prep him on at midnight. So I saw him again. And then we did the... lovely man, and then on the show, he called me a little bitch, which is funny. It is true. I love that. He was right. He was right.

But I was being very cranky. I was in, I was in, like, we got to this, we got to Western Mass. This is part of Wilco's festival, which is the name I don't remember. John Hodgman very kindly invited the doughboys to be a part of it. Beautiful, Western Mass. That part of the, that part of Mass is gorgeous. That's very close to Vermont, in my opinion, energy-wise. So this was a new biome for me, and my body did not react well to it.

I had some sort of like allergic sort of. I was just like, I got very sick. He said new biome for him. I got very sick when we went there. And then when we left, we went back to, we went back to Quincy. And I was like, fine. And we had a great time. What's this kid now?

Have it get in the house. Buy him all these big words is using. Hey, again, we're the, you know, Bernstein Bez. We don't know any of these big words. The big word, let me just tell you that I want to assure you that he uses big words, but he's dumb as hell. Okay, good, good. Right. It's good cover.

Yeah, okay, good. Okay, wow. What about did you guys do? honeydew? No, we've not done honey. We've never done honey. We haven't done. There's a few, there's a few local chains that we have still not covered. You know what we did in the last visit that had a great time. I had legal seafood. Yeah, my mom, that's classy. What about Olive Garden? You guys, that isn't totally that isn't totally regional, but that

yeah, I forget where Olive Garden originates, but it's, I mean, it's, it's a nod to your culture. That's true. Orlando, Florida. Orlando, yeah. Yes. Oh, yes. A lot of chain restaurants start in, in, in Florida. Yeah. Outback Steakhouse as well. Oh, my God. Bugaboo Creek?

Bugaboo Creek is, that's, that's, that's new, that's new England. I don't know bugaboo green. They have a big moosey kiss. Yeah. That sounds like that. Round, round is also, uh, round around. It's also a local one. The 99?

You've done the 99. With popcorn. I got bad, I got bad news for you about the 99, too. You didn't like that either. We had a bad experience there. It's pretty. It's falling off. It was pretty.

It was pretty. It was pretty. It was pretty. It seems like you kind of hate every fucking ex. Yeah, it seems a little bit. I'm talking about places that I liked. I liked DeAngelo a lot. I gave five forks to Regina.

I was four forks for all around for these fucking chains. Also, give it the S. Give it the S because you're going to, you know, you get beat up calling it DeAngelo. I believe it is canonically DeAngelo. But if everyone calls it to be Angelo's. I understand. Linguistics is descriptive, not prescriptive, but the company name is DeAngelo. You were saying, you were going to before they Sean Parked the donuts off.

Yeah, exactly. Exactly. You were same places you liked. Sorry. Yeah, same places I liked. DiAngelo's. Let me say this about legal seafood, Pizza Re Regina, and there's other ones.

What was the burger place? We go there for tasty burger. Tasty Burger. I don't know that. Tasty Burger's a newer chain, but that's fun. Hogg Island was in San Francisco. Oh, I got to mix up with Boston. Hog Island, yeah.

What the fuck are you talking about? Has that where Ben Affleck's from? Come on. I think that's why. Shankton was there. Shankton was there. Chankton was there. Chankton was there.

I don't remember. My memory is really. Chankton's one of Mitch's friends from Quincy. You don't need. Of course it is Shankton. I mean, that's such an awesome Quincy name. Who lives up in the San Jose area? I think Jemmy did just fart.

Did you two? There was a vibration on the couch, so I hope it was Gemmy farting. Or it was. Oh, wait, it was my phone. It was your phone. It was my phone. I was going to say, Gemmy's tuts are usually silent but deadlies. You don't really hear them, but you do smell.

She's so well-behaved. She's just so quiet and hanging and protecting us from the ghost. Yeah, 100%. I'm okay, so you like some of the places. I do think hot weeners are something for you to try and clam cakes. I think is an interesting thing for you to try next time you're there because there's such regional things. Well, we've been to New England so many times now to do shows that I've, like, lost track of all the places we've eaten at. I've generally had a good time and I was going with an open mind.

What was going to say about Bertucci's just... Can I just say it? I don't know if we can't say it. Well, I can't just tease the people? It doesn't come together yet. We probably shouldn't say that in the episode. My 25-year reunion is that high school reunion is that weekend. I know, I know.

Are you going to go? No, no, guys. Go on me, be your date? Come on, that's a movie. That's a movie. Have we really? And I was there. I watched this happen once already.

So, yes. Okay, 25 year, are you like? My high school classmates are going to be happy that the Klebold has finally found his Harris. Dylan Klebold and everything. Harris, the Columbine shooters. Oh, okay. Yeah. I think more than Eric Harris of the group.

Yes. Yeah, you're saying I'm the dumb one that just got tricked into. Yeah, and Eric Harris is kind of the guy, the mastermind. The evil one. Don't look at me. We're not getting you involved. But wait, what were you saying? I'm sorry.

25-year reunion, are you, how do you feel? Is there someone you're like, pine? You're like, you heard about the divorce? Oh, no. There's nothing like that. There is nothing like that. I'm like, I mean, I see so many of my high school friends still. So like a lot of the people that I'll see, I'll be like, oh, I just haven't seen this person in so long or whatever.

But like, hey, look, if there's any recently divorced people. Come on. Let's get a little. Let's see what happens. I feel like we're perhaps it's been a while. And I think with our guest here from the same region, Mitch, can we do like an inventory of your Quincy crew? I can help you out with it because you already mentioned Chankton. We've already mentioned Ramondi.

the year's part of, as a duo with Rwandi. You love hanging out with them. Do you want to say people who are in this class specifically, who will be there? I mean, up to you. See, like, Dano part of the crew. Danos, I love Dano. Dano wasn't my, Danno was the year before me. Dano was a, wow.

Shankton. Shankton's going to be holding it down. Lindorke. Lindorke's actually doing it a whole time. Lindorke is a doctor. Oh shit. Yeah. Lindorke is a doctor. I'm sorry, Dr. Linddork.

Dr. Linddork is married to Frailbot. The frailbot and Lindorke are married. I don't know if that's lore. I don't know if that's been. Hey, Mitch, Linddork. I thought that was his last name. Wow. Cut it, cut it, cut it.

No, it's fine. Leave it, leave it, leave it, leave it. Leave it, leave it. Leave it. Got it. Leave it. Okay, Lynn Dork. Wu Tang, Wutang, of course.

No. How big is your crew? Scoop 2? Oh, Scoop 2, yeah. I forgot about scoop 2. There is no scoop 2. Sorry, there's, now you get college friends in there. The college friends are pooh.

There's two poos in college. Wookie you're talking about. Wookie, of course, not chewy. Wookie's not my great. Yes. And then, Buxton? Fuxon, yeah. Yeah, sure.

Fxton's real. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, you got to buy the rights to this friend group. Because there is a movie here. Just by the names. Wow. Okay. Uten. is,

yeah, Wu Tang is a big one. There's, there, I mean, like Joeio, but Joeio is also not that, you know what I mean?

Joeio is a peach. Lovely man. Yeah, yeah. You love Joeio. Oh, that Brezlin. Brezlin, Brezlin is my class. Nader.

Nader's the same. Oh, yeah, Nader. Yeah, but Nader is different school. Yeah. A lot of people like, there's a lot of them. You kind of roll deep. Were you kind of like,

were you kind of high school? No, no, far from me. No, far from it for me. Are you kind of cool guy, cool guy, High School? He's going to say yes, but I'll answer for him. The answer is no.

No. But I mean, I could kind of like, this, my, my, my, my high school was very, uh, uh, factionalized. It was like, like, there was. Cameron Diaz went to his high school. Cameron Diaz, well, yeah, but Cameron Diaz went to my high school. Snoop Dogg is, is it had 4,000 students. It was a huge, uh, a diverse student body.

And so there was a lot of, a lot of different, uh, demographics that were not necessarily cross-pollinating. Okay, okay. But my, um, my group of friends I stay would probably within our, was, was a cool group, but I was not the cool guy in the group. I was just kind of like a goofy guy who hung out with them. I had friends in my group where were cool. I mean, everybody loves Wu-Tang, that's for sure.

I still see all those people. So I'm like, I mean, I'm excited to hang out with them. We were mostly drinking, I feel like that was kind of what the- Drinking in high school? Yeah. Drinking in high school? Yeah, yeah. Cool guys.

I was, I was-b, come on. Oh, yeah. Very cool. I was drinking. We were, we were. I think that's good because I was not drinking in high school. And I'll tell you when I was drinking. College?

Yeah. I think that if you're not drinking in high school, you go to college and you're like, oh. That pendulum swings hard. It's so hard. I'm just going to get fucking crashed. As someone who drank in high school, I was like, college kids are,

and I don't think you work as your Massachusetts person, but so many colleges kids are like, this person can't hold their booze and is annoying to me. I could not hold my booze and was annoying. I just remember someone coming up to me and I would black out a lot in college. I rode for two and a half years, so that was like my, so like that felt like military.

I mean, I still was drinking on days that I wasn't wrong through. But you were almost going. more. I was going more. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I,

I still got fucked. I mean, and then I quit and I, so two years of college is kind of more like, more collegey, yeah. I was kind of doing the, I was kind of not eating,

only drinking. So I was kind of having, yeah, yeah, I was kind of having a big, yeah, yeah. But I remember some guy coming up to me and being like, he was like,

British and he was just like, you talked in a British accent to me all night. And that was like, I got to cut back. That was my rock bottom. There's a guy just going like, yeah. It was insulting, isn't it? Shut up, you fucking dweeb.

We fucking, we tossed your tea in the fucking ocean. Hey, we did. Yeah, we did. What was California doing, fucking sitting on their asses on the West Coast? I think it was inhabited by indigenous people kind of like. Of course, and nothing. Oh, interesting. Pretty problematic if you ask me.

I agree, it is problematic. Aye, we own your land now. It's a Wiguer Plan. The Wigers are here. Okay, wow, that's exciting. Yeah. Okay. There was Dunkin' Donuts, the original Dunkin' Donuts on the other side, Southern Arbery Dunkin' Donuts, right?

Yes. Which we've been to the original Dunkin' Donuts. I've taken him on a tour all around. It's not remarkable. Okay. No, it's like, it's not like, it's like, oh, wow, look at this place. This is a fucking landmark. It just kind of looks like a normal Dunkin' Donuts.

You could just say, oh, wow, it's the original Dunkin' Donuts. I was. I was like, oh, wow, it's the original Dunkin' Donuts. but it's not like the sort of thing of like, oh, wow, look at this, this original location is preserved as it was back in the day, you know? It's like this. They did kind of like try to like put like little diner seats in there. I know, but it did some shit.

I wish there's a little bit more of that. Sure. Do you guys gun to head, you get, you're going in the restaurant or you go and drive through? Gun to hand, we're smiling both of us. Do it. Ryan's left. Bye, Ryan. Don't put the, don't put the curse on Ryan.

Why not? He's the intern. He can take it. He's young man. He doesn't need that burden. He is taking the dolls home. You got to earn your keep out here in Hollywood. You've got to go through these ritual hazings. He gets it.

Yeah, so Gunthead, you're happy, but you're going in, you're driving through. I'm not usually going there. I'm not usually dining in at a Dunkin. How about yourself? I'm going in, but I'm not dining in. You're going in. You're getting better food, I feel like. It is fun to go in, especially if you're going to order a drink.

I like to see what I'm looking at, too, if I'm ordering the food. I want to see which munchkins look fresh, which look a little dust. Because, yeah. So many, I mean, speaking of drinking, so many hungover mornings getting Dunkin' Sandwiches. Big onion cheese. I remember, for me, bacon, egg and cheese on a croissant, and then I think I'd get a chocolate milk lags or a strawberry cul-a-cula. Strawberry cul-a-cula-so-good. Also, did you ever get a what was the hot chocolate mixed with coffee?

Do you guys remember what was that called? Oh, yes. Yeah, I know what you're talking about. It wasn't a Dunkicino, but it was like a. But that was my favorite. No, it wasn't that. That's probably what it is, but they called it something. Yeah, yeah.

I loved, I loved when that existed. It's no longer on the menu, and I also, of course, loved that Apicino Donucino spot. It was historically known as a Dunkicino. So it was the Duncichino then. Okay, great. So we have a little more in common than we thought. I don't like that.

You remember the Al Pacino spot from the, of God. How could I forget? It's not Al anymore. It's dunk. It's really good. A great bit. Yeah.

Bacon, Egg and Cheese on a Crescent. My sister worked at Dunkin Donuts in one point. I don't know if I've ever revealed that. Courtney worked at... Courtney, thank you for your service. Yeah, she worked at Dunkin' Donuts. She was the one who... She loved the bacon, egg and cheese sandwich. And then she revealed like, oh, they microwaved the eggs. And I was like, that didn't stop me. I didn't care. Yeah, that doesn't do anything from me at all. Yeah. But bacon, egg and cheese on a croissant, either strawberry culotta or Nessly, uh, chocolate milk, Nessly quick, chocolate milk or whatever. Nest quick. Just from the, from the fridge. Right from the fridge and then a chocolate frosted donut. That was my big right there. You're hitting almost every calorie you need for the day. And also, by the way, that happened today with me. I hadn't eaten anything before I came here.

I had a couple bites of mango. And then what I ate, I probably went close to 2,500. I went ham. Did you do that on purpose so you knew you were getting Dunkin? I knew I was getting Duncan. I was just like, I'm just going to fucking wait. We're doing this. We're doing so many episodes a week on this show when we're starting.

at fucking 4.30. You're up late last night. You sleep in, but it's, yeah, it's basically breakfast. You're damn right. I know, it started, Mortal Kombat two started at 10 p.m. It's a late screening.

And I flipped off Grogu at the Grove. There's Grove goo. Oh, right. Goos at the Grove, and I gave him the finger, and I sent it to Amelia and she was pissed off. I don't really know what that is, but Massachusetts,

do you ever go to the Grove around Christmas time and get that fake snow? Yes. It's a nice experience. You're craving a little bit of snow. You go there. It's fake snow. I don't know what they're doing, but it's lovely.

It's not the same. Sure, but it's better than nothing. I've encountered more fake snow than real snow in my life. Yeah. You probably have. Well, I remember when me, you and Emma and Carl Tart. Oh, good group. Carl experienced snow for the first.

I taught Carl how to do a snow angel on the lawn of our air. That was really fun. That's a nice memory. Wonderful. Yikes, Amelia. Didn't get the invite. That was before Amelia's time. It was before my time.

Amelia wasn't born yet. Yeah. Well, yeah. Dung and D. Look, a lot of great memories at Dunks over the years would walk there on the weekend. Okay, great. Jeremy's standing up again and staring over at Wags direction. Oh. She's just being cute.

She's being cute. It doesn't indicate the presence of any sort of apparition. And I don't know about you, but I also feel very, like, every Sunday I go to Dunkin' Donuts, and it's just a way that I also feel connected to home. It's a way that. Oh, you still do that. I do that every Sunday. Wow, I love that.

What do you think of the? West Coast dunks. I think it's fine. Again, I think what I love about a chain, I'm sure you guys talk about this on here a lot, is just the consistency of something. I love that I can be in a place so far from home, but I can go and basically have the exact same taste of coffee. So it's very good for me, like, homesick-wise. That's like a, you know, and certainly the westward expansion of Duncan happened in adulthood for me. And I had never had Duncan until I'd gone to, I went to New York as an adult. That was my first experience with it. I really liked my first, you know, again, this place that had been kind of built up by all these East Coasters,

you kind of go in with like, I'm not necessarily a chip on your shoulder, but a little bit of like, all right, let's see what you got. Right. And then there, and I'm like, I like this. I'm actually having a great time. It's a good coffee. It's a good breakfast sandwich, a decent donut. But here's the thing.

As they've scaled up, as they decide to blanket the country with locations. It started to be a little bit more cardboardy. We get it. And then also the thing, the thing that's a bummer is that they used to make the donuts fresh in the house. You know, time to make the donuts. Bread. And now what they do. Now what they do.

A lot of them are, it's a central kitchen where they're trucking the donuts in. And it's just not the same. You're not getting the same fresh. Now, here's a question. Do you know where that central kitchen is? Is it closer to Massachusetts? And so is there a chance that it tastes better in masks? It's a shorter trip.

I believe they're regionally located. And I think there might be some locations where they're still making the donuts in house. It looks like you were jacking them off with your hands there. Oh, there are a couple little ghosts over my shoulders. Fred the donut guy. You summoned me. Now you've got to jack me off. Well, back to making donuts in hell.

You're in hell. I did some bad stuff. What a surprise, I guess. Hit a guy with my car. I just kept driving. Fred. Alyssa, you got hash browns, iced coffee with almond milk, avocado toast, a cul-a-which-you-doid, which you did not realize, came with milk,

and the milk could not be substituted. Yeah. And some munchkins. Mitch, you got a, man, you did go ham. We'll get three a second. I'll read off my order. Let me give mine. Because I got, this is an meal order on my behalf.

I got a wake-up wrap, which was just egg and cheese and a tortilla, a small hot coffee, a small hot oat latte, and a blueberry donut. But there's actually a punch donut, wasn't it? Fruit Punch donut. Well, Mitch got the punch donut, the fruit punch donut. So he asked me to substitute yours with something else. Why didn't you just get, like, if we're just going to get a fruit punch donut and a blueberry donut, why don't we just get one of each? It doesn't matter who's attributed to. That's what we did. Okay, yeah. We did, but I put it in an order for the fruit punch donut.

You're like, I want the fruit punch donut for myself. Yeah, well, look, you didn't give you an order. And then she's like, I'm going to guess Wags order. And she included my fruit punch donut. I was like, don't fucking, you can't get it. I went down to separate to fruit punch donut. Yeah, but that's bullshit. You don't like when people order the same thing as you do some of it.

Oh, good guess. You guess one of my orders? Get the fuck out of here. I thought he would want to free food punch dough. And then this motherfucker plays possum. This order's so big. I'm going to be late. I said, don't worry about it.

I'm late all the time. Relax. You got nothing to worry about. And I said, Duncan's going to get that shit done in an instant. And you know what? Mitch was right. They're fast. They don't waste any time.

She texted me who's like, I got out of here so fast. And I was like, you're going to beat me there. Lo and behold, she did beat me here. Oh, yeah. It's true. But Duncan is, they're moving quick. They're moving fast. Which is like maybe not good.

Like it might be, it might be this, like back in the day, it maybe took a little bit longer at Duncan. It is very, it's very much, you know what I'm talking about? It's a machine. Yeah. Thank you. Yeah. That's what I meant. That's what I meant.

Industrial, you know. the music sting that would be used in cartoons of the 50s. Yes, yes. It's... It's... It's fun. Yeah. You know what...

You know what my favorite part of that song is? What's that? Oh, yeah, that's fun. The end of it? Yeah. That is fun. It is fun. Yeah, it's a good song.

You didn't do my favorite part? I thought that's why he did it. I thought you were going to take it over because he pointed at me. Oh, shit. Okay, all right, do it again. Bump bum bum. That's right, right, we did it. And then there's a little, and then like it starts again.

It's like, you know what you're saying? Like it goes low again. That's a fucking... It's a boop. That's a fucking... Who know that song is? We can play that shit. I bet you anything.

I bet that's got to be in public domain. I wonder. That ghost of yours is going to fucking probably used to like the used to dance to that song in some way, I'm sure. I shouldn't even evoked her. I hate that I even talked about her. She could have written the song. Give us a rundown. I will say you were very kind and you shared your fruit punch donut and your chocolate frosted donut.

So I get to try both. But give us the rundown of everything you got. Here we go. Okay, here I went. This is, this is my order to meal. I stopped. I stopped walking with Suss, which he was thrilled about, and I wrote down this big order. How did Susser not join us for Duncan?

I was confused by this, too. I mean, I don't know. Dodiak only lets him do one activity a day. Oh, that's probably what is. It's probably the Dodiac. Oh, right. It's the Dodiac. That's right.

It's the Dodiac. Total Dodiac move. Large strawberry dragon fruit limeade refresher. Now, I'll tell you this. I usually get a strawberry dragon fruit refresher. It comes with green tea. This is more sugar. It's lime made is in here as well.

This is new. I was going to say, yeah, that's not something from, this is new. This is new. You can just see the color here. It's very, it's neon pink. Vibrant pink. So funny seeing you with these drinks, it's like a millennial woman. I feel it's very millennial woman.

It's giving millennial woman. It is, it is. Totally. Usually, here's the thing, you get this big hunker of a drink. And when it's with the green tea, not too many calories either. It's like kind of, but with the lime aid, I think. that throws it all out the window. I then got myself a hot caramel

caramel cray's signature latte. A little too sweet, I thought. But Amelia also fucked up really bad and got the cold one, which was better. Pretty good. And also, that just has like a good, this has a good Dunkin taste going on there. Can I tell you what?

I think this is the elite time to be, like this, when it's almost all melted like that, and there's the dripping, this to me is a classic Duncan. This is kind of dripping. Yeah, so it's your hand when you put. Yeah, you don't want to be having it when the ice is, like, strong. On the East Coast, it would be this, but it would be a styrofoam cup would also be around it. They don't do the styrofoam cups anymore.

They're gone, I know. But that was the movie. You get an ice coffee, and then they put the styrofoam cup on the outside. Just wasting. Just destroying the world. Well, is this single-use plastic much better than styrofoam? It's also very wasteful. No, but we would do the double.

So I guess it's just a little. It's just a little. Yeah. And everything stuffed bagel miniswags, which I shared with you as well. I enjoyed it. You never had these. before sometimes they really knock them on the park and then other times I eat them and I think they do it's like chemicals.

Yeah. That's why I feel that the hash brown. Same. Same. Same. Same. Same. I like that bad boy.

I like the bagel supplement. You know what I like about is that because sometimes you get a sandwich and you're like, I kind of want a bagel bite. I want a bite of a bagel and these minis give you that. So you get to have your cake and eat it too. Not cake, but why we were talking about cake before? Oh, your birthday. My birthday.

What cake? Do we even talk about cake for my birthday? We talked about eating cake and shitting it into the toilet. That's right. What cake are you going for on your birthday? What's your ideal birthday cake? Well, one of my best friends, May Wilkerson, is an amazing cook. And ever since I've been in LA, she makes me a homemade vegan cake.

Isn't that so nice? Before this, it would be funfetti. It'd just be a classic funfetti. But now May makes me cake. So I think last year she did like a vegan lemon butter cream. but it was all vegan. It's incredible. So she takes requests, but usually I say, do your thing.

So I'm hoping that after that as this comes out, I will have shit into the toilet. My best friend, May's beautiful homemade coffee, homemade cake. That's amazing that she'll make a bespoke cake for you. And it'll be a little bit of a nice surprise. Yes, isn't that just amazing? Yeah, it's really nice. That's really nice. I love a homemade cake, though.

I have no interest in a store about cake. Shorebar cupcakes. I will not eat it. I just don't, it doesn't excite me at all. I love vanilla. I like vanilla cake and then the frosting can be whatever. But if it's from the store and it's that got like that, ugh, I hate it. It does nothing for me. That's fair. You know what I loved? I love yellow cake with a chocolate frost. Me too. But I'm talking like if you just get the yellow, the yellow cake in the box and the chocolate frosting, that's a perfect cake to me. That's a great cake. It's way better if you make it home even from a mix. Even from a box. Can I tell you what I've moved on to? There are times when I'll do this slice of storebought cake just to have. I was like, I was like, I was like, I want fucking.

cake and FARCade. There's a low effort proposition. I want a good vanilla cake with, I want like a good version of it. But I, like, Riscoe Farms has some nice, like, cakes, like a German chocolate cake slice that I have found as good and a carrot cake slice. But yeah, vanilla cake is hard to find, in my opinion, that's good. It's funny because for my birthday, like, that's in my, that's what it's in my head.

But now I am more of a chocolate cake guy, just on my birthday, it's different. But as I've gotten older, Wags, I've moved on to I'm an ice cream cake guy. Ice cream cakes is really fun. Usually I think that's a younger this. So you're coming back to that. Did you ever have Carvel? I'm doing a little Benjamin Button thing. Yeah.

We're a Carvel boy? Carvel boy? Carvel, I like Carvel, but like Carvels. Carvel's not as big, like, you know, more Brighams or whatever, friendlies. Yeah, friendlies, you're right. Yeah. So maybe I am. Lots to mention friendlies around him.

I mean, geez. Didn't have a great experience. Yeah. More like unfriendlies. Okay. I'm Benjamin. I am liking my dicks there already, but everything else is slowly getting there. I'm going into ice cream cake now.

As I get older, I'm becoming an ice cream cake guy. It's just so high stress, though. I mean, the serving of it is just, it stresses me out. More than that. You're on a timer. You're going to put it in the fridge. It's a process here. You've got to trust the process.

You're from the freezer to the fridge. Did you get it a little bit? Oh, you go up the bridge. The Sixers beat us, the Celtics. They got swept by the Knicks. Yeah, and then Lakers are now out too. How do the Celtics drop four games to the shitty Sixers team? What a fucking mess.

They got absolutely shit-housed by the Knicks. I have no idea. I think the Celtics are going to beat the Knicks. Just a true mess. We don't have to talk about it. I'm sad. It's a rebuilding year. It's a rebuilding year.

My team lost too, and it got swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder. Probably the ultimate champions. Yeah, yeah. I hope they kicked the shot out of the Knicks. And I don't even like that team. We'll see when by the tennis episode releases, we'll be an NBA final. I think we're in IMEBS finals. What do you think?

What do you think? I think it's going to be boring. I think it's going to be it's going to be thunder over Nicks. I think that's going to be, it's kind of just like the, you know,

I don't think the Thunder particularly exciting team, but they just execute so meticulously. If there was going to be... SGA gets those whistles. If someone gets, if someone wins who isn't the thunder, I actually think it would be the Minnesota Timberwolves and it would be them upsetting the

that we're still, it's locked up with the spurs right now, but them upsetting. the spurs and then upsetting the thunder because they're just so fearless and tenacious. And then I think they'd match up pretty well with whoever the East opponent was. That's true. No, I think the Celtics are going to come back. No, they'll find the way.

They'll find the fucking way. We're strong. Yeah, it ain't over. It ain't over. Boston Strong Boeby. We're coming back. I remember they put one of the Boston bombers on Rolling Stone magazine. You bring this up every time.

Yeah, we had Columbine. now we're having the Boston bomber. Sorry, sorry. We don't have to talk about every bad thing. We don't have to talk about every bad thing. We don't put them on Rolling Stone. Yeah, they should have put them on Rolling Stone. They made them like hot.

What's up? Whatever. It's like, like, who gives a shit? I do, damn it. Wait, they put hitting the bomber on it? They did, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Which brings this up every time.

I don't bring this up every time. What do you mean every episode of the podcast? Every time the bombing comes up, you bring up that they put the guy on Rolling Stone. Look, Boston Strong. I'm getting back to my Boston Strong order right here. right now you're more like Boston Long Wrap it up Boston Long and all of a sudden

We're back to Ben Affleck Come on Boston Long COVID That's what I got Oh boy Seems like one of your shitty roast They're not yours The people who write them for you

I got a sweet black pepper Bacon sandwich on a croissant See I'm not fucking with sweet and salty I don't like the comma. It's not for me. I agree with you, but I was like, I'll try this thing. And then I realized I think I have had it before. I wrote in parentheses if no croissants, I'll get it on an English muffin.

We'll get back to that. Everything bagel with cream cheese. This was for me to just take home with, but they put the cream cheese on it, so I had to take bites of it. I don't know how it's going to, I don't know. Can I also say something from looking at it? Yeah. Light cream cheese. Not enough cream cheese.

I did not put a lot of cream cheese. I remember it being like thick in the middle. That was. You prefer when they put it on for you or when they give you the thing. No, I should have, I should have been more clear with that. I said I was taking it home. Usually when you ask them to, when they put it on. I agree, but in this instance, but that did look thin.

It looked thin. Especially at a, especially a bagel shop, I want them to give me, just put the smear on. But like, like, at a situation, like, if I'm at like an airport dunk in and for whatever reason I'm getting a bagel, I'll probably get it on the side and I'll ask for an extra one. For whatever reason, because it's a good reason, because you're at a dunkin in an airport. Perfect place to get a bagel. I agree with that. Bagels. I don't usually eat before flights, Swagron, and I've gotten to a fight about this.

Really? But I don't like that. to eat before, I don't want to have to go a bathroom, basically. Oh, yeah, fair. That's like me with, yeah, drinking water. I, I, uh, oh, yeah, sure. I get that. Are you thinking you're going to have to poop that quickly after? I just don't want to even have to think. You just want to risk it.

Yeah, okay. Everything bagel with, uh, everything bagel with cream cheese that has on there. I got the fruit punch donut and I got a chocolate frosted donut. Yes. And I got 10 munchons. Munchkins were fun. Munchkins were for everybody. Oh, I mean, all of it was for everybody. Uh, so I, I, I wrote English muffin and no croissant. there was no so amelia something

croissant is unavailable i said did you do english i put it i put it in there i don't know if you sign she said english is unavailable i said fuck and then uh she said it's two hours before they closed she was spiraling out at this point i was like it's fine don't worry about it and then i said did you get me the sesame sea bagel and she says no i forgot it so i did a thing and i ordered i already had to order it

because i wanted to be on time so i needed it to just submit the order so that they could work on it so then when you took when i said yeah i forgot Then I just ordered it separately for a different order. But I also ordered a sandwich. And I said, you can pick it up under my name. And I didn't know she did that. So I got a sourdough breakfast sandwich as well.

That's nice. So we got the sesame, we got the maple sweet bacon one on a sesame seed bagel. And we got the sourdough sandwich. So way too much food. But the sourdough sandwich in my head, I actually thought it was a sourdough bagel because you remember when they had those, those were great. But it wasn't that.

It was on sourdough bread. And I got to say, I don't know what I think about the sourdough bread. It sucked. Fine. You gave me a bite of a bit, it fucking sucked. It was, it was, like, so fake sourdough tasting. The bread was low quality and it didn't have a good toast to it. Like, why bother?

Mass-produced sourdough is not actually made with sour-dough starter. It's with, like, a sour flavoring. That makes sense. So it doesn't have the same vibe as, like, a true sour dough. So that maybe is what that is. You don't want a sour flavoring at it, and that's not fun. No, that sucks. Yeah.

So, yeah, anyways, that was not great. And then the bagels, the bagel sandwich version of it was better, and I honestly couldn't taste the sweetness in the bacon. Okay. What do you think? What did you guys? You didn't try the donuts, but why? So what do you want to get there eventually?

I have the donuts most Sundays. Okay. All right. So, yeah. Yeah, yeah. I think they're great. I don't think they've dipped in quality at all. Those munchkins, a blueberry munchkin is my favorite chocolate second.

I think that they will vary in quality just based on the day. Like I'm just saying like just based on if they've been out for a while or whatever the deal is. That's true. At the end of day. Yeah. In terms of national availability and to your point about consistency, I feel like, hey, I can count on the Dunkin donuts to be fine. I, like, certainly, like, locally, I think they're, and even excluding, like, a place like

Primos, which is, like, a one location, you know, artisan, a donut shop. I would take Duncan over something that's, like, a little bit more gentrified, like, an upscale, like a side car where donuts, like, $7 a piece. But I still, like, like, a Randy's donuts, which is from L.A., I feel like does, like, that kind of, like, donut that sort of working class donut just a little bit better. And it's made in house in this fresh. Yeah, which is a little bit different. But I still don't mind it.

And I like the savory side of their menu more. And I enjoyed the blueberry donut I had from there. I thought the fruit punch donut was like a little bit, had a little too much going on. But the chocolate frosted donut was solid. My wake-up wrap was tremendous. I thought it was fucking home run. My sister loves the wake-up rap. My mom loves it.

She gets two anytime we're on the road. People usually get two of them. For the breakfast. Egg cheese and tortilla, it's all you need. It was great. If I had a little bit of hot sauce with that, it would have been in heaven. I like it so much. I make it on my own with the Just Day.

paddy at home and I get these little mini tortillas and some vegan cheese I hate it up because I love it I think it's just perfect yeah it's you know what it is it's never gonna hurt your stomach it's such a safe food right it's like super hot piping hot mine was fun you got you gotta you gotta you gotta fucking but I feel like you got them there quick you gotta move fast yeah that's all I gotta say you gotta move fast you gotta you gotta swallow those things hash browns and an ice mocha and a joint perfect day yeah that's why I was rushing to get back here yeah you knew that wake up rap was on borrowed time The chocolate frost was gone, by the way. We had to get a chocolate chocolate frost.

Oh, the chocolate one was, yeah. It was still good. Oh, that's better, though. You want to just. I'm a classic chocolate frost. With a cake donut, not like a chocolate donut. Oh, wait, speaking of which, I'm sorry. Please.

With ice cream cake. Oh, yeah, yeah. Here's the issue. So many ice cream cakes have crunchies. I actually want cake between the ice cream. I want actual. Is that possible? It is possible.

It used to be way more normal. It doesn't happen as much anymore. The crunches. The crunch is kind of the whole. What the fuck? This is some... I love the crunchies. I might come off as a bit misogynistic here,

but this is some woman bullshit. Oh, women love the crunchies, except for the one that you saw. She's great. Let me guess. All your broads got three drinks in front of you. Three drinks and crunchies. The fucking ladies are out of control.

That's crazy, because I also feel like the softness would just make Like, you need the hardness to separate the ice cream. Oh, man, I, I, I, I, you guys are being, uh, you're just being foolish right now. You're not thinking this through. You're not thinking straight. He's a little hysterical, my thing. Wait, what's that?

You almost said we were hysterical. Yeah. You're being a little hysterical right now. I'm not sure. I don't know what's happening here, but. Canceled. Some of you may or may not be witches. We may have some sort of test to figure out who's a witch.

I don't think any of you are a witch. witches. Yeah. Apparently if you have a freckle on your palm, you're a witch, which I do have. Oh, my God. Have I had a guess which one of you is a witch? Well, okay, never mind. So we got three.

How hairy are you? Yeah, that's because my palms are hairy as fuck. I have no freckle. Wow. That's good. If I had a guess, I would guess Amelia first of anyone. Yeah. I don't know.

Emma has witch energy. I'm not. I believe in witches and I am faithful. I'm happy for I have I'm scared I'm scared today I am faithful so you didn't have the culotta I didn't have the culotta I didn't have the culotta got did the strawberry culotta have milk it feels like no it feels like that's particular to the vanilla that's also what I was going to get today and they were out and they were out of everything rightfully guessed that vanilla was my next best guess but then similarly right you got one too yeah and I was reading the sticker that says it just says it's a small vanilla bean collata, two vanilla bean cool syrups, and then one milk. So I'm pretty sure this is literally just syrup and milk mixed together.

It does just taste like vanilla milk. And there's no way to customize milk. Which is why I don't understand why you put it off in it. It was way too fucking sweet. Mitch, you compared it to drinking frosting. And it's kind of what it felt like. I was sipping this some bitch and I was like, ooh, that is a whole mix. It was like a little, it's not a little too much.

Like a little too intense. That's a thing we do, I guess. Oh, fun. Okay, let's do it again. Oh, yeah. Yeah, it was a, it was kind of a potent mix. Oh, yeah, I'll see you at the munch down. I'll see you at Munch Madness. Do Boys Fridge Fest.

You got to come to Doe Boys. Yeah, I'll be performing at Fridge Fest. Doe Boy's Fringe Fast is happening. It would be funny if your, if your ghost was like listening to the podcast, he was like, I'm fucking out of here. It sucks. It sucks. Oh, shit.

Um, Amelia, your sausage egg and cheese and everything bagel, hash browns, uh, ice latte oat milk we're all hitting.

Those hash browns specifically were hitting. I agree. They're great. Very peppery in the best way. Crispy.

They're like 99 cents, I think. Yeah. So good. The bread, the bagel itself kind of not great. Um,

and did we just hear something? Yeah, but it's a person. It was Rochelle. She was like wearing a red in white robe. She didn't have a face. It's fine.

Yeah, she just went that way. Yeah, it's all good. Yeah. Um, yeah, big old, yeah, I mean, but those hash browns are really fucking good. I get those,

yeah, that's a Sunday. And when they're, I agree with you. When they're piping hot, they're so good. They're so good. But sometimes you get one

where you're like, they haven't cleaned the microwave in like three months. There is just sometimes like a chemical thing going on really. These were too close to the top of the batch or so.

I don't know what's going on there. I agree. Hard-y thing that wags was so. Yeah. chemical thing there and there's a cardboard thing there in my head. And you can get it. Look, and I know I'm saying this about a restaurant I love, five, fours at some point. But still, I know this about, about Donovan.

Again, it's part of why, yeah. Yeah, I have gone to a Duncan straight out of the airport in Boston and gotten a coffee. And it's just like, sometimes you get a coffee from them and you know it's wrong by the color when they hand it to you. You're like, oh, this is not a good one. And I have dumped it and gone to the next Dunkin, like 10 minutes down the road, have gotten a different one. Same order, completely different coffee.

Sure, yeah. I don't care. I'm just like, oh, we'll just go to the next one. Yeah, that's the way it goes. So you're, that is, that is just the way it goes with,

and sometimes this is a bad one. You can just, the consistency, even though I know what you're saying, you're going to get the, on Gwen Stefani style on Sunday morning, you're going to get, you're going to get that taste of home,

no matter what. What's the Gwen Stefani style? She sang a song called, Sunday morning. Mitch was referencing a no doubt song. Oh, nice. Are you mad? I liked it.

Come on, man. Come on. Oh, Jesus Christ. Gwen Stefani's gotten her stuff together now. She's a, she's, uh, you know that she's become like a, she's like a Christian lady now. Oh, is she? Well, she's with Blake Shelton. Yeah.

Sexiest man alive. She's, she's, she's like putting up like, she, she's getting like Ash Wednesday ashes and stuff. Oh, how about that? Well, you should be. You might want to get yourself some ashes as well to keep, yeah, I would take out the cross tonight. I will maybe. I wouldn't be making fun of that on this. I'm not.

I don't. You got two witches in here and you got a ghost? I don't know, man. This is a fucking disaster. You're fine. I'm going to run into a fucking wolf man on the way of it. He's like, oh, hey, Frankenstein. In my head, I was like, play a cold.

It's trying to be Frankenstein. Oh, fire bad, hey. All right, Frank. Hey, buddy. You want to hear about my latest obsession? I'm talking about Mars men. No, I don't mean space aliens. I'm talking about something very different. Did you hit a wall in your mid-30s? You're doing the same workouts, eating the same diet, but you feel like you're moving

through mud. Nobody tells you about this stuff. One day you're crushing it. Next day you're wondering why everything feels twice as hard because there's a thing. Most men start losing testosterone around age 30, about 1% every year after that. Wow. That's why we love Mars men. Here's what I learned. Your body makes testosterone, but a lot of it gets locked up and can't be used. There's this protein called SHBG that basically handcuffs your testosterone. Even if your body's making testosterone, SHBG locks it up so you can't access it. It's like having money in the bank, but your debit card doesn't work. Mars Men is designed to help free lock testosterone so your body can actually use it.

No synthetics, no needles, just real ingredients that help optimize energy, focus, and strength. We're talking about stronger physical performance. And hey, helping out your recovery in gym. And as you know, you get older. That recovery gets harder and harder, but going to the gym gets more and more essential. More consistent natural energy. Another thing that dips with age, your energy, like your testosterone. Help that out with the Mars men.

We'll each go around. We'll give our closing arguments on Duncan Donuts based on this experience, but also, you know, you've been there a lot. So you can take all that into account. and then we'll end by giving it a fork score from zero to five forks. It is currently in the golden plate club. It is not dripped below the four fork threshold.

So four for forks or higher puts in the gold plate club just for reference in terms of our metrics. Alissa. Do you want me to go? Yeah, Mitch, why don't you go first and start the table at the table? I look, I loved Duncan as a kid, but we've talked about this, Wags. that to your thing. We've talked about this,

Weggs that like Wendy's has got bought out by what's it called venture capitalists and, and, oh wait, what did you say?

Private equity. I mean, same, yeah, same thing. Right? Same difference. Bad rich guys. Bad rich guys. This is,

this bit is not even going anywhere and it would probably, you probably can't even have it on. What's the Irish song that's in every, that's in every Shipping up to Boston? Yeah, that's it.

That's it. Okay, okay. Oh, you were trying to find shipping up to Boston? As you go, I've been going to... Emily's just singing it for you. Yeah. And that's the amount of time we can do with that. You guys getting in trouble.

There we go. Worth it. Worth it. You know what? This is the truth. What? This is funny you do that because we had Tim Brennan on the podcast. Right.

From the Dr. Murphy's. And we did sipping up... Live in Boston. Live in Boston. We did sipping up in Boston. No. It's true. And he played for it.

And he played. And he did play. He played this. He went along with it. And I like apologized to him afterwards. I was like, I can't, sorry. We made you do that.

Jesus, I just saw Michelle walk in the background. It's good the fucking shit out of me. But Cheryl's just a person. I know that Verselle is just a person. She's not a, she's not a, Lord of Evan. Got a ghost. She's not a race.

She's not a specter. She's not a ghouly. But Tim Burton was there. Also, by the way, I had COVID. at this point. I currently had COVID. when he was out on stage. And we were reviewing Bertucci.

Okay. So there was a lot going into the Bertucci's one. You gave it to... Oh, yeah. I never landed on my Bertucci's thing. Yes, you gave it to both Romandi and Mike are here. It was Mike COVID. Mike's train.

Wow, how about that? Bertucci's thing is that I mentioned this before the podcast, but it was one of these places that was bought by Robert Earl, speaking of bad rich guys, who is the founder of Planet Hollywood. And then he just trying to use their kitchens for ghost kitchen concepts. like Guy Fierry's Flavortown and Mr. Beastburger. So that's partly why both Bertucci's and Bucca de Bapo have fallen off a cliff. Oh, but go ahead, Mitch.

I'm sorry. I interrupted your thoughts. I have, I mean, like I was saying, Wendy's, you know, the, you know, these, the venture, all these venture capitalists or private equity or wherever buying these restaurants and turning them into shit. And I think that. Blackstone capital buying Jersey mics. Yes.

Duncan, Wendy's is now like just so bad. It's just Wendy's has just falling apart. Duncan, there was a difference. in quality. I hope that someday someone buys them that cares more about them and, you know, the downsides of Dunkin, you know, like a baking stuff locally. It's never. Maybe us. Maybe. It could be us. Oh, man, what a fucking pain in the ass it would be. It would be a pain in the ass. We'd hate each other at the end of it. Uh, let's go in on it. Let's go in on it. But it would, it would be great to care about, like to have people really care about Duncan. Here's the question.

Can you care about something that's that big? You know what I mean? Like, once you hit a certain level of scale. Is this inevitable? Yeah. Right. That's a great question. And Wendy's, people have turned on Wendy's at least. Duncan, I still do love. I still think like, yeah, some of the quality has gone down. You can have bad Duncan, but I still do love it. Come on. I love it forever. I have memories of going at Duncan with my dad before work and you put the coffee on top of the car and he drove a long time and it was still there because of because Duncan is magical in a lot of ways to me. Why? Because I love Duncan Donuts. And it was better. It's not as good as it was anymore.

Still, it's five-fourker. Wow. It's Quincy's own. It's Quincy's pride, Dwig's. Yeah. How much... The pride of Quincy. The pride of Quincy. You're, you're from Quincy, Massachusetts, the home of Duncan. I'm from Lakewood, California, the home of Denny's. That's true. We both have chain restaurants in our blood. We do.

Alyssa, your thoughts, your forks' forks'clock. Um, I think that... I got it. Duncan donuts. What can I say? That hasn't already been said. No, I love Duncan. I agree that potentially the quality is not quite where I remember it being as a kid. But I think what I love about it is much like Massachusetts. You know, it's like we, every day is not beautiful in Massachusetts. You get some tough days. You get some hard weather. It doesn't have to be perfect every time, but it's like. Marky Mark, good vibrations. Very good. Awesome. But I love it.

I played as much as I could of Marky Mark. Yeah, that kind of played longer than mine did. It felt nice. And we don't know him. Basically, I love it. Even if it's not perfect, obviously it holds a lot of nostalgia. It holds a lot of East Coast to me. And I like the innovations for a vegan.

Growing up, they didn't have hash browns or avocado toast. I like both of them. They're very solid. They taste the same every time. I'd get the same order again tomorrow. It's getting five forks for me. Wow. I love it.

You gave me a bite of your avocado toast as well, and I did like the avocado toast quite a bit. I thought the bread and the sourdough was really bad, but the avocado toast, I was like, this is totally, if we're a chain restaurant, honestly, version of this, this is much better than I expect. I agree. I agree.

Emma, I know you have nostalgia for Duncan. Amelia, do you have as well as someone who grew up in New York? Yeah, I do. So this is baked into, you know, your personal history, For all of you, Dunkin' Donuts is a bite of a memory. For me, I don't have that connection. I was not exposed to Duncan. You know this one.

Do you not know that song? What is that? You don't know it. I don't know if I do either. Dirty Water? I just did the Father's Son of the Holy Spirit of Boston songs. Good vibrations shipping up to Boston and dirty. You don't know dirty.

That's when the Red Sox would win. They played dirty water. I don't fucking care. I actually don't think I even knew that. I only put on my Dodgers hat. Oh. Anyway, the... You like the Dodgers?

Yeah. Lakers are out, so I get to hop out of the different bandwiking. It's about time. They've won like two championships in the last few years. I love it. Evil Empire. It's great. This is the thing about Duncan. Again, I don't have that connection to it. It's not a bite of a memory for me. But I have enjoyed it when I've encountered it in adult life.

And I will say, as far as chain-refer, restaurant breakfast go, it's right up there with McDonald's. As far as a go-to, a place that I'd want to see if I like, I've like on the road, maybe hungover or maybe just really sleepy, hey, I can get a cup of coffee that I'm going to like there and I can get some sort of breakfast sandwich and or sweet treat if that's what I'm craving. Can I interrupt you really quick? It's going to be fine to good.

Yeah. Susser was like, I love the food. Like, I like the food there much more than I like Starbucks food, but I like Starbucks coffee more. I'm like, what the fuck are you talking about? Insane Tense Tessor. I hope the Dodiac fucking... Take his food dish away.

Yeah, take his food dish away. It doesn't get watered day. I think that's fine with him. It kind of hurts you. You know, it's very violent. That's sour. Yeah, it's like acidic and sour. It's fucking nasty.

It's also just like try hard. Like I'm in there as like, like, why are you trying to pretend like you're from some fucking classy upscale place? Dunkin' Donuts is like, here you go. Everyone's welcome. It's a place to fucking, it's Duncan. You know what you're getting. Hose his ass, Dodeack.

Hose him down. So where do I lay in forkwise? I did think this was a fine experience. I did not love the bagels, but I thought they got the job done. And I do believe that Duncan is a place that due to its consistency, due to its predictability,

and due to it feeling. Just remember, you got two people watching this review right now. Like it fits one, three people, if we're talking about the apparition. She's Boston lady? Oh, she's a Boston lady? Oh, it's all good? Forget about it.

Oh, that's my Auntie Suz. The decline is noticeable, even in my limited experience, even only going to this place for, like, whatever, like 15 years or however long I've encountered in adult life. But I still like it, and I'm still happy to see it. And for me, it's not quite a five-fork restaurant, but it's a four-forker, and it stays in the Golden Plate Club. Where I think it belongs.

Wow. Thank God, Wags. it's a good chain. This place we're celebrating what a chain is trying to do. And as far as what Duncan Donuts is trying to do, Duncan is succeeding very, very well at being done. I'm just happy. You haven't gone ghost mad and, you know, it seems like you still have your wits.

I like Duncan. Like I have every reason to be biased against it. I have every reason to be like, I'm from the West Coast. Like we got, wait, Randy's Donuts is better out of here. Any random Cambodian-owned donut shop is better out here than Duncan Donuts. Even if I kind of feel that way to some degree. I'm just like, don't know. Duncan is trying something else.

And like from a breakfast sandwich standpoint, from a cool drink standpoint, from both the savory and the sweet side, I think it's like a comprehensive overview of what you might want in terms of a breakfast when you're on the go. And so for that reason, yeah, I think four forks is the right.

We're going to make you an honorary Bostonia. Yeah. Wow, okay. Okay, I'll put it on. All right, I got my, uh... All right, I got my... Go ahead. Okay, no, no fucking way I'm where that Celtics had.

That's the line it won't cross. What about this one, Wikes? No, fuck that. I'll put on the Celtics hat before I put on the doughboys hat. Fucking Mark of Shane. I'll hand that back to you. Thank you very much. Lovely cap.

Lovely for our audio listeners, a pink Boston Red Sox cap. Great in the color way. Very stylish. Which is a derogatory term from Red Sox viz. I don't know if you know. The pink cats came in and ruined everything. Do you know this? And is that like woman?

Yeah, honestly. Kind of. It's probably kind of. Homophobia to some degree. Yeah, well, now you're an honorary Bostonian. You can do stuff like that now. Wait, wait, real quick. How are you doing on time?

I didn't know we've gone along, I know. I got nothing but for the dough boys, for my fridge boys? Fritch fest. I don't want to go home either. I know what could wait for me. I'm going to talk to Rochelle and talk about how what I should do after this to not be fucking. I might go see a movie and try to rub up against somebody. Hey, that was our review of Duncan.

It's time for a segment. I've got some food-related genie. mean that in a Kevin Spacey watching fucking saving Private Ryan sort of way. I mean that in the fucking get this, get this muck off me. I've got some food related jingles and Mitch and Alyssa must determine which year they came out. It's another edition of jingle all the way spelled W-H-E-Y. The rules of jingle all the way. The closest guess without going over wins a point.

So it'll be a jingle and you'll guess what year it came out. If the closest guess without going over wins a point, so it's Price is Right Rules. If you guess the year exactly, you get two points. points. That's the art and marine rule. If the game ends in a tie, the guest wins. That's the Mitch Kenner rule. If the second guesser can guess a movie from the first guesser's year correctly, they get a point. That's the Murder Brian rule, but you can only do that once per game. If you can also make the movie guess a food pun that doesn't have to be explained, you can get extra point. Yeah, look, I got to get going. But thank you guys so much. That's the Zach Cherry rule,

which also can be deployed once per game. If you can name a character that an actor in the commercial played, you get a point. That's the Beck Bennett rule. You can do all that also once per game. And if Mitch and the guest hold hands and agree on a year and are correct, they both get the point because why fight? That's the Sandy Honig rule. That's also once per game. And clearly if you want to add a rule. It's up for grabs.

But you don't even agree. We agree on a year that the movie. If you're like, if you're like, like that one feels like 1988 and Alyssa's like, ah, man, I was going to say 1988. If you hold hands and we both get a point. Then you both get the point because why I fight. Okay. Okay, great.

Hold on. Oh, that's fair. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. That's fair. No, she's right. I'm kidding. I'm messing.

It's an inside joke, guys. It's an inside joke. All right. Today's theme is Coca-Cola and Diet Coke jingles. These are, as always, compiled by the Drop King, Robert Bersinger. Wow. All right. Did Rochelle leave?

No, it's waving to a ghost. No, but we need her for our tips. Can we text her real quick? See if she can pop in real quick if she's out there. Go grab her. We need her. Please, we need her. So this is

We'll play a clip If she's already out the door, maybe let her go If she's already left Amelia's on it, she's on She's pulling out of her car She's getting by her car Run over She becomes the ghost

It's 8pm which means Rochelle has probably been here for like 10 hours So people keep her to go home She's got one last duty She's got to fucking help me out Oh she's going Oh, man. Okay, walking back, she has been summoned.

Rochelle, we're very sorry to, Mitch was quite insistent that we bring you back here. You brought this up to me before and I thought that it was haunted dolls. This is terrifying to me. Alyssa and I both want to know, Alyssa and I both want to know, what is the best course of action for us to say? Rochelle also one of the Jemmy's favorite people on the planet. Oh, look at that tale. Who is our get play producer and a super producer here.

at headgum, aka Ranch is your nickname. Demi loves you so much. Dogs love you everywhere. And also, you are someone who is aware of the paranormal to some degree. Yeah, I've had a lot of paranormal experiences, and I am deeply afraid of all of that stuff. What was your reaction when I texted you this morning about my, you know, kind of beat by beat of what happened to me last night? I just, I couldn't believe that a skeptic. Yeah. I would say you're a skeptic, right? I think so, yeah.

This is exactly how I got to put it. I'm more skeptical than like, oh, what? There's spookies everywhere, you know? Yeah, it almost like felt just very affirming. Yes. Wow. I said, I said, yes, it's the closest thing to confirming that goes surreal. Wow.

And I'm very worried the proximity to you, to be honest. Really? Me too. Us too. Wait, you don't want to be near me. Exactly. If you brought her with you to the studio. Exactly.

Did they do that? Yes. They follow him. Yes, they can. She's chilling my place. They can kind of do whatever they want. So what do we do the people who are near him? You did give me some guidance in terms of if I feel threatened by this spirit,

something that I could do if I feel their presence again. I think the best course of action is always to be very polite. Okay. Yes. And you can ask them very politely to leave, leave you alone. And just taking a very firm, if there's any, like, amount of like, oh, I actually kind of want them to stay, they will stay. Yeah. Well, that's good.

We don't have any of that. But if you, like, how could I, let's say, let's say you're talking to a spirit. You want to banish politely. What might, what might you say? How might you formulate that? I would probably say, hello spirit. I appreciate that you're here. and I acknowledge that you may be lonely or lost,

but I don't want you here, and I hope you respect that. It's very polite. Oh, no, I'm like, she can stay. I'm like, oh, she's lonely. Oh, that's sad. But the thing is, a lot of spirits will come across as childlike, and this is where kind of demons come in to play.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, my God, why did we do this? This is worse. I feel worse. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'm done. I'm not, no, no, I'm not, I'm not, I'm fucking out. I'm talking out. It was like a young woman.

It was like I couldn't. Maybe a child. I couldn't tell the age. It was a diminutive person. I thought it was, it could have been a grown woman who's just a small person. I couldn't tell the age. You could have just gotten coffee.

I had to come here. This is a true nightmare. But I couldn't, because I couldn't see their facial features, I couldn't tell how old they were. Yeah. So it's possible it might have taken a form that would not be threatening to you

in order to have you let them to be fair that did sound kind of threatening this one didn't have a face yeah that was like a little spooky maybe she's just a little lost I think I should draw it they don't want me to draw it I don't want to see it

I don't want to see it but also be kind of manifesting it it to be like okay so you don't think I should draw you think it's a bad idea what if I try to draw it no you shouldn't try to draw it if anyone's going to draw it I can drive I don't want it Amelia stop Oh my God Oh my God So bad idea to be like

Because I almost did that this morning I was like let me draw a picture And then text it to you I wouldn't You say don't do that I still kind of want to do it See that's what I need I'm needing more material connections

To the spirit Which means it's harder for them to leave It's like a thing It's not like you want her to stay I don't know I didn't mind the experience I was just a little confused A little perturbed

But I didn't feel threatened Maybe it's not a ghost or bats Some of them are friendly and they're just hanging out. Ranch, what is your thought on, like, you're saying you don't want to be, like, around him? What is your advice to, like, say, listen, I and yourself? Is there anything we should do? Like, say a prayer. I would, if, God forbid, she did come with you to the studio, I think you guys could ask her nicely to not come with you.

On our way. Yeah. In case, she, like, feels like she likes you guys better for some reason. You should have her as a guest. Mike, you got to quit the pod. You got to, I don't know, you got to quit the pod. I already want to. I'm moving back to Boston.

I don't know. This is okay. My question is, what, did you do anything differently that might have brought her here? What were you watching? You said I fell asleep watching TV? Well, I went to work first, so I didn't come direct from home. So I went, yeah, I fell asleep. I, like, I had, I think it turned the TV.

be off already. And I was like going to get up. I might have had some a YouTube on or something, but I wasn't watching anything substantial. I wasn't watching anything scary certainly. And I sort of, you know, kind of fell asleep, like just leaning against the couch and then as I was, as it was

like just ended up lying down naturally. So, yeah, I don't, there's nothing unusual because I will fall asleep in the couch sometimes. Emma, you'll do that sometimes too. I'll couch sleeper constantly. I sleep on my couch more than I do in my bed, I think. And if I've had sleep paralysis in the past, it's always been in my bed. I actually have not experienced it on the couch.

So that's part of why I knew was so different. When you woke up... Why would she do that? I don't know for fun. I'll talk to her. Was it you woke up naturally and then saw it, or did you wake up to the, like, feeling of it? It was a combination. Like, I kind of, like, woke up and then immediately was in my field of view.

Like, like, because, you know, like, the way it was lying, I was, the front door is is directly across from me. I would have screamed, I think. Yeah, I can't believe you didn't scream. I'm not a screamer. Do pets help with this? Like, having Jeremy in my house? Ghost Will Leave Me Alone?

Or cats? I don't think so. Damn it! I was really convincing myself to have Jemmy around. Is it good for us to go to a movie or something instead of going straight home? Is that helpful? Maybe. If I went to a different location before I came here, there's probably less of a chance that it followed me all the way to head gum, right?

Or does that not how it works? It could just be on my back. It could be on your back right now. Wow. Does your back hurt? No, my back does. feels good. What's bad about having a spirit following?

Well, it depends on the spirit's intentions, I think, or why they're here. Yeah, I guess you just don't, you just don't know what they're intending. Yeah. Because sometimes people say spirits that are, that you see are trapped between, like, life and death. They're sort of in a limbo, and they are, like, not always friendly. Wow. Well, how do we know it's not sleep paralysis?

Yeah, that's the thing. The only reason I, because immediately that was my thought, is like, oh, maybe this is sleep paralysis. I'm looking at showtimes right now. Maybe there's an hallucination. but because it was so different from my normal experience of sleep paralysis, both in terms of-scarly, more than terms of my physicality,

like that I had full range of motion and that it was like, not in some, again, I'm repeating myself, something I said earlier in the podcast, but for Rochelle, I'm not in a space that resembles my room in some sort of dreamlike steak.

I'm just in our living room. I just know this space. So if it was unlike any other sleep paralysis, and the apparition that I saw was very different than the... When's the last time you've had sleep paralysis? It's been a while. It's been a couple years. Maybe it manifested differently.

It's possible it did. So that's always a possibility. I'm not ruling that out. You know, like, I'm just like the most possible. Did you smoke any lead before you went to bed? No, I didn't. I should have. Do you think that would help?

I don't know. I was just curious. Yeah, so it was not substance related at all. There was no, like, yeah. No. I mean, you got up and you got up and you're walking and you still saw her in the corner. Yeah. When I got up, she got up.

Yeah. And just sort of like, like, walked and then, you know, like, again, sort of as I demonstrated earlier, positioned yourself in the corner. She got up. Did you ready for bed, babe? Well, I'm wondering, and you're open about this. Yeah. Maybe when you start taking GLP-1s, maybe that somehow is...

Changes your sleep paralysis? Yeah, your brain chemistry. That's interesting. I didn't think about that, that's a possibility. I ain't Googling anything about this. Okay, okay, someone... GLP, look up GL-1. Yeah, Amelia. Amelia, who already...

Wow. Amelia doesn't seem scared either. You seem very brave and not scared. I'm not scared. Yeah, so that's good. Okay, look up GL-1s and... Wait, the G and G-L-P-1s. stands for ghosts?

Why are there more showings of deep water, the shark movie? That's a scary movie. That's a scary. That's a scary. We need like the office playing in movies. Ranch, you were leaving. You were going home. We got to let you go.

But thank you so much for popping back in. Thank you for having me. I can't tell you how much worse you've made me feel. Wait, wait, Rochelle, you weren't here for a Kokoichi Banya episode. You were, you'd been taken to the Miami retreat for Had You, headgum. What's your fork score for Cocoa Ichibanya? Five forks. Yeah, got to be. Yeah, got to be. Thank you for your service,

Ranch. You're the best. Thank you. Thank you. Good luck to all of us. I'm respectfully asked the ghost to not come with me. You can stay here. I will do that as well. That's good. Thank you, Ranch. This is also the last movie there is fucking scary looking. No, we're not seeing that. Why do we go see hoppers?

Let's go see hoppers. We're going to go see hoppers. We're going to see hoppers. That'll be nice. That'll be good. All right. This is jingggling. all the way spelled WATY. Oh great. Now we got to play jingle all the way. Today's, hey, this will be a fun game.

This will be fun. This is like the hoppers of segments. This is the hoppers of segments. Today's theme is Coca-Cola and Diet Coke jingles. Drop King compiled these. The first one is just for the joy of it. Just for the rock of it. Just for the roll of it.

Diet Coke. Just for the look of it. Just for the kick of it. The real cold a taste of it. Diet Coke. Just for the joy of it. Yeah, we're guessing the year Why that guy pull his pants out?

Because I guess he lost weight using Diet Coke. Oh. Multiple Weird Al appearances in that. Well, that was going to be, can't you name an actor? You have to name, I think you have to name something they played later. Yeah, if you'd have to name a character that an actor in the commercial played. If you can think of a character that Weird Al played in a movie, that would be what would get you a point by the Beck Bennett rule. Okay.

But anyway, the game is, guess what year? Mitch, well, Alyssa's first time playing this. I'll have you go first. What year do you think just for the joy it came out? I'm going to go with 1989. 1989 is your guess. Yes. And I also would like to say, you can use this once, Weird Al played Weird Al.

Oh, you said a bitch. And the movie, Weird. Weird. Counts. Did he? Yes. Didn't Daniel Radcliffe Oh my God, I got it wrong.

That's how good Daniel Radcliffe is. Oh, sorry. Use up your one shot. Fuck. Alyssa, what? Mitch says 1989. I should say, U.A.

J.F. I overthought it. Mitch says 1989. Is it plain weird Allen? I think his character's name something else in weird out. I'm going to go 1982 and I'm not going to do the other one. Alyssa

is closer without going over. It's 1985 was the year. Oh, much earlier than I thought. And this one features in order. Kim Carnes, Weird Al Yankovich, who we mentioned, James Coco and Henry Thomas of E.T. James Coco. Yeah. All right, next up.

James Coco is in a... Alyssa gets a point. James Coco was just in a movie I saw just recently. All right, next up. This is just for the taste of it. Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. This is Elsa Bore de Selena. Okay, I do think I have a rule I'd kind of like to pitch?

Yeah. If at any point, someone's only one time during the whole game, someone stands up, they are initiating a dance off to the jingle, and then whoever wins the dance off between the two gets a point. This is really good. This is a good rule. Okay. Here comes. This. Can't beat it.

The rhythm. The one that you get from. It's that beat that. My color looks a little better, maybe. Quality. This commercial sucks. I mean, it's not her fault. It's just a bad song.

It's funny that this is like, we'll make you want to dance and we did not initially to dance off. This is such a bad song. There's also very much dancing in the commercial itself. Why? That, of course, is featuring Salina, which it started from the title of it and from the little music video graphic that comes up top is front-loaded. James Coco is in Muppets Take Manhattan. How about that? I knew I'd just seen a movie with a minute.

All right. We'll toggle. We'll switch on and off who goes first. Alyssa, you'll go first for this one. What year did El Cibor de San Diego? Salena come out. I'm going to 1988. 1988 is a guess.

I was going to say the same exact thing, but I will say the same exact thing. Don't we have to say the same time? 1988. You both get one point because it came out in 1989 a year later. That feels good, though.

We both got a point. Yeah, we got a point. You both get a point. We have two points. Alyssa has two, Mitch has one. Okay. Next up, just for the taste of it. Just for the grin of it. Just for the Just for the chast of it Okay, so for the danceoff, I mean, this is...

Okay, we're both winners, no matter what happened. You're both winners, but more accurately, Alyssa is the winner. I felt like Alyssa was actually dancing, and Mitch you were kind of like half committing, half doing a bit about dancing. I did Michael Jackson for you. Yeah, I know, but I mean, it felt like you were kind of like not really in it.

It felt like Alyssa was fully good. Alyssa's won a point then. So you're up three to one point for that. All right, what year did just for the taste of it come out? Because now it's your judgment on the dance off? All right. Do we want the deus to judge the dance off? Yeah, I think the dais can judge the dance off.

They can't both say Alyssa too. Oh, look at it's unanimous. Oh, wow. You're all taking Alyssa's side. Interesting. Oh, the woman are synced up again. Yeah, here they go. Yeah, on the rag. Yeah.

Mitch, um, I'm first. You're first. We didn't really watch it, yeah. Do you want to see some more of this again? I think this is later than we think, and I'm going to say 1999. Nah, I'm going to go 1991. Alyssa is going to get a point. This came out in 1996.

Oh, that's, I hate this rule. I was through, I was closer, bud. This is sweeping. You only got a point because of the hand-holding rule. Shut the fuck up. It's four to one. There's still two left, though, Mitch. And remember, there are bonus points available via

the getting the year correctly, the Ard-Marine rule, guessing a movie from the first-guessers year correctly, a food point. Everyone disagrees with this rule, and I would have told Alyssa to do it, but she's turning to a dance-off. If you're closer to the year, you should get the point.

I do agree, but over, I mean, where Price is Right rules. I mean, it's kind of the Price is right. I think you need a guess to negate the original rule in order for that to be. Like, I guessed what I have to say. I know it's too late. It's a dance-off rule now.

Dance-off rule is in there. Sorry. Okay, next up, when did this come out? The ad is, it's the real thing. Burger patty on the trail. Just some vintage Americana here. Right. This restaurant, chop suey.

Oh, I love chop suey. Okay. I can't hope this is like them doing a flashback or this is the current. Nah, no. Okay. Wow. Am I first this time? Alyssa is first.

I'm going to go, 19792. Is that crazy? 1972. Wow. I'm going to go the year of Jaws, 1975. Wow.

One of you got it on the dot. And that's Alyssa. There's no more dance-offs. We can't do a second dance off, but the celebratory dance is allowed. Just for fun. Just for funsies. I'm usually decent at this game.

We have one. We have one left. Mitch, I think you could still accumulate enough bonus points if you got everything right where you could tie it up. It's one to six right now. You have to run the table. Shut your mouth. And you're going first for this one.

And who has the one who has the six? You have the one. Mitch has the one. Thank you so much, Amelia. Okay, here we go. Finally, this is just for the one of it. Oh, you think it's really big. It's like a bander cool thing.

I don't know if that it It looks a hot It's definitely a pugilist Drinking a Diet Coke As a well-known pop singer is singing Mitch you're up first year Was that Tina? It's not Tina

Or is that Wait Who is it? It is Whitney Houston With her hair Her hair is Oh shit The bodyguard

Wait does that I forget I forget what That's not how it works. I know. I have to say a role she played. No, you have to say a... Yeah, a role the character played in the bodyguard.

Her character from the bodyguard. We just get a fucking point for that. If you say what her name is... Yeah, I know. I can't remember. You can just guess. Whitney. It's a good guess.

Is her character named Whitney? What I would have guessed. Her character's name is... Susan? Not Whitney. What is it? It's Rachel Marin. Rachel Marin?

I wouldn't have known. Rachel Marin's a pop star? Right. It's a weird pop star name. Anyway, it's just for the one of it. What year did this come out, Mitch? I'm going to say that came out in 86. Mitch says 1986.

Since Mitch has a history of going over, I will take 1985. Once again, one of you is right on the dot. I'm going to be so mad if it's 1985. that individual is Mike Mitchell Making it respectable 6 to 3 in the end The boxer was misidentified I too and first when you saw him in the wider shot I thought that might be Evander

But no, because of the baldness and the mustache But no it is marvelous Marvin Hagler You see it's not John Lithgow in that commercial, is it? It's Willard Scott is the other Yeah Whitney Houston The Weatherman and the creator of Ronald McDonald Willard Scott and then Boxer Marvelous Marvin Hagler.

How about that? 85, I should have said a movie from 85. But I would have gotten two points. I never would have. No, 86. No, no. I'd guess your year. Oh, you guess my year.

Sorry. 85. A movie from 1980. 1985. I mean, even if I get all of this right, I'd still be one point behind it. It doesn't matter. Okay.

Give it a try. But 1985, I should know a movie from 1985. And I'm going to guess. 1980. 1985. Looking for 1985. I'm going to say Airplane 2. Airplane 2, the sequel.

What year did Airplane? I feel like it came out earlier, but it could be wrong. Airplane 2, the sequel, came out in 1982. Wow, 19802. The year I was born. What's a movie from 85? Do you got one? I was going to guess Amadeus, but I think that's a year off.

Oh, right. I should have been thinking of big movies, not small. Amadeus came out in 1984. Yeah. I was here off. All right. Hey, that was a... One of the American, one of the family... Oh, vacation.

Vacations? Oh, National Lampoom, you were... We really just do a regular-ass sheet ghost. That's nothing that... That's not at all what that apparition looks. That looks like a Pac-Man ghost. Yeah, that's what I was basing. Looks like inky, blinky, stinky or dot.

What's the other one? National Lampoon's European vacation. Maybe that came out. Let's see. I think it was. I think you got them right. All right. That was jingle all the way.

Thanks again to the Drop King. Just like a restaurant and value your feedback. Let's up to the feedback. Today's email is from Tebow. National Lampoon's European vacation did come out in 1985. You should have guessed it, Mitch. Today's email is from Tebow, pronounced Tebow. Tebow writes, hey, dough boys.

While on a trip to Poland, I stumbled across the Doritos' Mexican beef burrito, which might be my new favorite Dorito flavor. Wow, this is wild. Wright's favorite, oh, no, right's flavor with a U. Okay. This is perhaps a European or Canadian listener. Have you ever stumbled on a groundbreaking flavor or favorite new item while on a trip far from home? Thanks to all of you.

Ground baking flavor. You know what I think I would have to say, and the EU is making me think of Canada, A. But certainly, what were those fucking cheese doodles we got up there? Those are so fucking good. Hawkins Cheeses. Hawkins Cheeses were so fucking good. Those are like the best version of a Chees of a Cheeto I've ever had. And they're not available down here.

And I'm sure listeners have sent them to us before, but I did not have the same reaction to them. I tried ordering them to hear after that trip, and every bag I got was stale. Yeah, that's the thing. I remember them being stale, but having them fresh in Canada, I was like, these are fucking dynamite. They're like perfectly salty, perfectly cheesy. They are obviously still an ultra-processed food, but they just somehow taste less processed in the American version. I loved Hawkins cheeses. That's my first answer.

Mitch, Alyssa. That's a great one, walks. Anything you were traveling and you were like this. You know what? Another one I'll mention... Yeah, my first one I'll say just on Canada is tomato lays, just lays chips that are ketchup-flavored. Those are fucking great. Incredible. So good.

And same thing where I'm like, this doesn't taste this process. It just, it's wonderful. You can kind of get ketchup flavored ones here, but it's not the same. Not the same. Not the same. I'm traveling over to Austria-Wags. Wow. And I'm getting a Kaiser Krona.

Sure, man. Awesome. So this is not necessarily like, this is like a just a street food you can get there. Yeah, it's a Kaiser Krona. What is that? Explain what that is real quick. Yeah. I'm gonna, by the way.

It's some sort of sausage, correct? We're living dead, after hours, clue, a lot of fun, 1985 movies. Right. Legend,

who I, because legend is in there. Should you play the box office game? For 1985? Yeah. I mean, no, we're done now. Kaiser Kronner.

Kronner. Hold on, I'm gonna tell you. Do you want to vamp while you're doing this? Yeah, if you guys have mine. Okay, when I grew up,

I would go to, I spent some summers in Spain. And I remember having a pasta carbonara pizza. Ooh, that sounds great. And I just remember being so obsessed with it that I got it like almost every day. And I got it my last day and I threw up. And I think my body said it's enough.

That was the last time I had it. But it's unbelievable. Wow. What did you throw up? Sorry. I basically ate to its death a carbonara pizza. So it was like a pizza that was carbonara flavor. It was incredible.

But I ate it so much that my final day I threw up. You won't eat these anymore. but here is, this is how the Kaiser Kranah is, is, uh, and you go there and they will, they have just a big loaf of bread basically wise and they, and they, you got like, they get a drill a little hole in it. Oh, nice. They put the Kaiser Krona in there and they put, you know, ketchup and mustard in there with it. Sounds delight.

That sounds so good. That sounds so good. That sounds so good. That sounds so good. How do you say this? A mental, uh, uh, menthol cheese? Amintal cheese? Is it, the R just silent?

Is that what it is? There's an R in it? Where's the Argo? Ementoller. cheese. Oh, yeah, I don't know. I'm a taller. Developing the late 1960s, this gooey sausage is a stable of...

I'm a taller. Sounds like you're describing our producers. It is true. Yay! This sausage is a staple of... How do you say, Viennese? Viennese. Viennese?

Street food stalls. Wow. To be grilled or fried until the cheese melts and the casing becomes crispy? Wait, Vietnamese or Viennese? Viennese. Now what's that? Like Vienna? Vienna.

Vienna. Yeah. Interesting. Interesting. I've never been to Europe, but that sounds interesting. I'd try, I'd fuck with a, what is it called? Kaiser Krona? That sounds so good.

If they had a vegan one, that's like my perfect thing. I wonder if they do. They must. Who knows? Yeah. All that sounds so yummy. To share something that's not a snack and is more of a dish, and I know this is like still like a chain thing, but in Japan, I mentioned already, the egg salad sandwich

from 7-11, it was an absolute fucking knockout. It lived up to all the expectation that social media gave it. It was, I could not believe how fucking good it was. I was eating that on the shin-consonson, so I'm eating on the fucking bullet train. I'm having time my fucking life. All right, can I say something a little crazy? I'm in Denver last weekend or this weekend. And we worked with, the only food that was available was

7-11, we went in and there was a Japanese egg salad. Okay. And my friend said that he was like, I've had it in Japan and this one's not that bad. Wow. Okay. So some 7-Elevens in America you might be able to get a kind of knockoff version that's not that bad. Yeah, I haven't had

the American Simulaccom, but that might scratch the issue. Yep. The box office, top box office for 1985, Mitch, you might be able to guess this. It's back to the future. Number two. I should have. I should have.

Yes, yes. Yes. Wait, wait. Wait, wait. Yes, we know it. I know it. Yes, it's Beverly Hills Cop. Beverly Hills Cop.

Number, I don't know what to do for number three. Number four. But da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-da-ba-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-Rockey two? Rocky four. What? They've already done four by 85? I don't know what the score would be for. I think 82 is 82 the first Rocky or is in the 70s.

So they would just want one of you. I think it was, I think it was 1979. 1979. 1976. 76. Oh, shit. It was wild. What I thought, yeah.

Rambo First Blood Part 2 was number 3. I wouldn't know what to do music-wise for that. You could have done that. Rocky 4. And the number 5, Coon. The horny alien movie where the old people can get boners again. Yeah, that always bother me that they just like, you know, they just feel, like, you know, they're just like, I can get. It's like, I got, I'm turgid.

Yeah, you're like, what, you just got. I'm hard. Yeah. Like, I'm a child watching this. What's going on? Yeah. My grandpa gets. boners?

Don't you think there should have been more like oh that you look youthful or something? Well that's the thing they have like the stuff where they're like

dancing or whatever but I think that's part of the wishful film is like hey my dick works again especially the era before. Was it a comedy? Is it a comedy?

It's like kind of a comedy drama. It's like old folks there's the fucking aliens. They're in there with one of those cocoon pods honestly. I'd love one of those cocoon pods.

Stay forever young. Some some like aliens come in some like aliens come and they lay cocoons in a pool at a senior center the seniors swim in the water and they feel the energy from these these aliens and all of a sudden they're

youthful again. That's kind of fun. That's nice. They're fucking and sucking. Old as fuck. But Wilford Brimley's also in it and he was like 40. He was like 49 or something. I'm sure the actors were our age.

Yeah. Unfortunately, I believe they were. People lived harder back then. If you have a question of comment about the world of chain restaurants, you can email us at Feedbag at birdfuck.com or leaves a voicemail 830.30. 460. 466. 463, 68, 4.

I'm going to do it in private because I'm not going to do it in private because I'm not to make a mockery out of it. I think you're right. But good luck to you tonight. That's what I'll say. I'm going to draw the ghost in private.

You're going to draw it in private? Go see sell and follow Alyssa. That was an absolute plan. And sender. And see sender. And see sender. We're both in sender. That's how we met.

There you go see sender. And go get yourself a nice cup of Dunkin. Will you, you deserve it. You deserve it, kid. That'll do it for this episode of Adobe. Until next time for this been on Mike Mitchell. I'm Nick Tiger Wier. Happy eating. See ya.

Hello, I'm Johnny Knoxville. And I'm Jeff Tremaine. Welcome to Jackass the Podcast. A new show coming to F***. Coming to F***. That's what it is. Hello, I'm Johnny Knoxville. And I'm Jeff Tremaine.

Welcome to Jackass the Podcast. A new show coming to Headgum soon. Woo-hoo. I've learned a Jackass movie has to be really 90 minutes. Every minute over is a minute too long. Apparently, there's only so much butthole you can take. We're going to take you behind the scenes of our entire history. All the best bits, bad behavior, and even worse decisions.

All of it. Sometimes we don't make the right decisions, Jeff. I've noticed that. Every so often. With guests like Spike Jones. I think this committed Jackass the podcast. What was it going to be called? The Jackass Podcast.

Without you, the IQ drops significantly. Steve-O. There's a strong chance that were it not for Jackass, that I would be in clown makeup right this fucking minute. Chris Pontius. That shot of your butt just cruising up. I'm like, I got that on TV. God bless us.

Dave England. Yeah, when you come in and you're being really nice, I'm like, damn it, something bad's going to happen to me. We man. Jeff grabbed me from the back of the head and threw a punch. The whole bar just stopped and wanted to kill me. And some of the crew that's been with us from the beginning.

I had to share a room with this guy, and I left a nice surprise in the toilet form. Every time. Apparently, he hates to flush.

What were we just talking about? Probably buttholes. Hi, I am Mandy Moore. Sterling K. Brown. And I'm Chris Sullivan. And we host the podcast, That Was Us, now on Headgum. Each episode, we're going to go into a deep dive from our show, This Is Us. That's right.

We're going to go episode by episode. We're also going to pepper in episodes with different guest stars and writers and casting directors. Are we going to cry? Yes. A little bit. Often. A lot. A whole lot.

That's what I'm hoping, man. Listen to that was us on your favorite podcast app or watch full video episodes on YouTube or Spotify, new episodes every Tuesday. That was a HitGum podcast.
