Wags, when I was a little boy, I'd wake up every morning Saturday morning. I'd watch some cartoons. Hmm. You know what I do? I go downstairs and I get myself a big bowl of sugary cereal.
Starting point is 00:00:26 And you know what? I can't do that anymore. I'm an adult. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, it's not fun like it used to be because you know what?

Magic spoon has reinvented your favorite childhood cereals to taste great, but each serving contains zero grams of sugar, 13 to 14 grams of protein, and four to five net grams of carbs per serving. No, honey, not flavor contains one gram of sugar. It's keto friendly, gluten free, grain free, and soy free way to relive those moments watching your favorite cartoons, plus it's 140 calories of serving. Wow, Wags.

You know, I normally do a scripted intro at the top of each pod, but I have discontinued that during the WGA and SAG after strikes, as you know, if you're a regular listener. As of this recording, the studios and guild leadership are back of the negotiating table.
Starting point is 00:05:09 And in the meantime, we will still be out there on the picket line as per usual. I mentioned last week the ongoing and now expanding UAW strike. We are continuing to stand with auto workers. But I also want to highlight a lower profile labor action. There's all sorts of this stuff happening across the country. So there's this computer hardware company Corsair and their workers among their many tasks assemble custom gaming controllers and gaming PCs. You know me, I'm a toxic gamer, bro. So I appreciate that sort of stuff. If you've ever built your own PC, you know this is like a skill and labor intensive activity. So I have a quote here. I pulled from a
Starting point is 00:05:50 recent polygon article about this. Let me read this real quick. Quote, several of Corsair's gaming computers cost more than the amount of money the person who put it together makes in two weeks, Madsen, who's a warehouse worker added, you're building more than what the company believes you're worth in just half a day. Anyway, the workers at a core Sarah warehouse in Duluth, Georgia have a union election on September 28th. That will be a week from today's release if you're listening to this episode release day. Solidarity with all of them.
Starting point is 00:06:21 And again, just encouraging to see workers, certainly their power, fighting for their fair share across all sorts of different industries. Food service included. Also, to borrow a mitches I am glad that Bill Mar folded like laundry. Anyway, enjoy today's episode, one of our favorite guests and the restaurant. Ooh, baby. This week on Do Boys, Gisados. ["Dono Wars!" by Nick Weiger, Welcome to No Boys, the podcast about chain restaurants. I'm Nick Wiger.
Starting point is 00:07:06 Along with my co-host, a proud member of Sad Shaftra, the Spoon Man, Mike Mitchell. We're putting it, we're putting Stryk roasts in here. It's a Stryk roasts, Sad Shaftra. I'm sad because my shaft is small. That's the idea, or this is just saying, it's a commentary on your shaft being sad. Like that's someone's character. Got it. Like someone sees it and says, that's sad. Yes, that's sad. I hope everyone. I could know. Good. Thanks. Hope everyone is okay
Starting point is 00:07:34 after Hillary, also hoping the strikes ensue in both unions get a fair deal with love and cut solidarity. Kavtron, Rose Spoon Manage email to come. Thanks, Kavtron. Hillary, we did, I mean, we just did this on our last episode recorded. We recorded two episodes today in that previous one. And also, this is gonna feel so fucking old because we're just recording on the other side of Tropical Storm Hillary, which hit the SoCal.
Starting point is 00:07:56 And then by the time this comes out, it'll be like three weeks in the past. I'm feeling like Bill Clinton, Hillary, been a little let down. It was a let down. It was a let down. It what look it was I will say I will endorse the idea of emergency preparedness, even when the natural disaster does not actually live up to everyone's.
Starting point is 00:08:18 And I'm going to say to be clear, he's the one to get let down in that relationship, not her with his actions Just rainy was this rainy? Yeah, I was like a little bit was a little rainy. That's fine. We're on the other side of it I saw the movie strays. I snuck out of stress Like everyone was like stay home. I was like I'm gonna go see strays. I saw strays. I didn't care You like strays? You know I laughed like, I'm gonna go see Stray's. I saw Stray's. I didn't care. You like Stray's? You know, I laughed like five to seven times. There you go.
Starting point is 00:08:50 It's better than a doughboys episode. That is better than a doughboys episode. Wags, we started up top when we were talking. We're all full of piss. Yeah, if you're listening to the first time, I hope you like pee. Because this is gonna be a piss talk episode. Be you and our guest, old Phil and Vinnigry. We'll find out. We'll see.
Starting point is 00:09:08 What did that mean exactly? Like he's full of piss and vinegar. He was like bigger, ready to go out. I think so, yeah. But what's all I heard out? What does that mean? Can we look at the etymology? Yeah, what does it mean?
Starting point is 00:09:20 Okay, hold on. Like, being full of piss, I'm like, okay, I guess it makes me think of drinking, I guess, you know what I mean? Okay, so it's a, apparently it is a, it's from John Steinbeck, his novel in dubious battle. This is the quote from the novel. Listen, Mr. London said, them guys is so full of piss and vinegar, they'll skin you if you show that slick suit outside. Steinbeck was clearly pleased with the phrase
Starting point is 00:09:52 and repeated it in 1938 in the grapes of wrath. Says the same sort of thing. The grandpa says these full of piss and vinegar. It's a good saying. It is a good saying. I don't really get it. It's a Steinbeck. Well, okay, so there, I. It is a good saying. I don't really get it. It's a Steinbeck. Well, okay.
Starting point is 00:10:05 So there, I guess there is a, there is like a Vim and something Vim and Vigor. You've heard that one. So it's like it's supposed to be like a riff on Vig- or Vig and Vigor, which I think is like an old timey sort of thing. RL Steinbeck. That's a good jeopardy before and after. Like John Steinbeck and RL Steinbeck. Yeah, I guess it doesn't really work. No, that's a good jeopardy before and after. Like John Steinbeck and Arles Steinbeck. Yeah, I guess it doesn't really work. No, that's good.
Starting point is 00:10:29 It's not really what an jeopardy before and after is. It's like Arles Steinbeck seemed like something. Yeah, this book, like I'm trying to think of an Arles Stein book. Like the haunted video. I was trying to think of a John Steinbeck book. So you and I are, if we put our heads together. Uh, like night of the living dummy, grapes of wrath. Like that would be like the clue.
Starting point is 00:10:55 The grapes of wrath already sounds like an RL Stein book. Night of the living grapes of wrath. Maybe just add scary, the scary grapes of wrath. Scary grapes of wrath. What is RL Steinbeck? Or like the scary grapes of wrath. I just get scary grapes of wrath. What is RL Steinbeck? Or like the living grapes of wrath. That's great. That's great.
Starting point is 00:11:10 It's like a killer tomato sauce thing. Yes. Our best time to go. Our best time to go. Our best time to go. Look, great bumps. To the goose bumps. Wait, what is it?
Starting point is 00:11:18 Great bumps instead of goose bumps. For great expectations. No, great bumps. Oh, he didn't even write great expectations. No, what are you talking about? No, that's Charles Dickens. I knew it was Dickens, I corrected myself. That would be a great, you're saying great pumps,
Starting point is 00:11:33 like grapes of wrath. That would be like, if you were to be like, he was on news radio and wrote great expectations. Andy Dickens. That one works. Sorry, who is Andy Dickens. That one works. Sorry, who is Andy Dickens? I think maybe RL Steinbeck works. Yeah, RL Steinbeck does work. Or maybe it would have to, if it was a jeopardy before and after,
Starting point is 00:11:56 maybe it would have to be like, back the singer. Look, look, this is full piss energy. This is what you get when our bladders are full and we're recording a podcast. We're going to do before and after pitches. You didn't know the song Fish and Chips in vinegar. Look, this is full piss energy. This is what you get when our bladders are full and we're recording a podcast. Do you do before and after pitches? You didn't know the song Fish and Chips in vinegar? No, I still don't. That was like, piss and shit in vinegar,
Starting point is 00:12:13 but it doesn't really sing it a parody song if you don't know the original. Yeah. What does it mean to you? Nothing. Yeah, I like that phrase, Wags. I can't believe that. Maybe that is just a very new England thing.
Starting point is 00:12:26 We've talked about it multiple times. You know what I like is a more modern version of it, young, dumb, and full of cum. You have a Pizz and vinegar you can say to your grandpa and you can say your salty grandpa can say that. Your salty grandpa's gonna say young, dumb and full of cum. Yeah, those salty. Maybe well, they'll come full of, young dumb and full of crumbs. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:45 Those salty, maybe well. They'll come in salty, I think, in some ways. Right. Isn't it? I've heard. I don't know. Yeah, who knows what a taste like. Do you think it would be, if we did taste test come,
Starting point is 00:13:03 like on the podcast, do you think it would be a point where people would be like, that's not, that's not, I was like, come you think it would be if we did taste test come like on the podcast, do you think it would be a point where people would like be like, that's a sky. I was like, come on guy. That's a couple of you actually did that. Do you think it would be, I mean, like definitely some people would stick around. Some people would stick around, some people would really like it, and then some people would be like, that's a lot of you doing. They did, they went too far. I think it would.
Starting point is 00:13:21 I think people may be would. Well, one thing to talk about doing it to actually do it is disgusting. Yeah. Yeah. What's next? Eating your own shit and your mouth's full of shit. I would never do that.
Starting point is 00:13:36 I would never eat my own shit. What if we were doing a taste test and like, you know, dab my finger in it, I think I could maybe do that. A little shit. Boom. Ha ha ha like pro kids, kids rule, and like adult stink, you know what I mean? When I wrote the school bus, because I walked to elementary school, I wrote the school bus that was in middle school
Starting point is 00:14:12 and in high school. I also watched the elementary school. Yeah, but so, but I feel like we're past the school bus song phase in middle school and high school. I think kids are too cool for that or thought they were too cool for that. Okay.
Starting point is 00:14:24 Maybe like going to camp, but I don't remember any specifically. Yeah, all right. But maybe it's a different string that East Coast and the West Coast. Who knows? No, I think there's school bus songs out here. They just didn't count into them as much. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:35 Anyway, we're filled with piss. Here's a drop. Am I hit? This will become a drop. Emma hit them with it, please. So about the Reaper Spice. Wow! Destroy Pull.

I think people will want the come episode I saw you Listening to that drop in staring up as if you were seeing news that a plane has hit the first tower. It was a similar vibe, but I was like, all right, it seemed like you weren't enjoying yourself. You're also tired. I'm very tired. You've been too tired lately. Your job is podcasting. It's pathetic. I got a picket line. I got it. I got a picket line, like 8.45.

Thanks so much for making time for a hot treat. Thanks for having me back. I missed you guys been so long. I feel like we've had a lot of like new friends lately, Mitch on the podcast, a lot of great guests, but it's like great to get one of our favorites back in here. We're trying to run through guests, get everyone on the show, who's ever wanted to come on. And so that it's, we've done it.
Starting point is 00:17:30 The boxes check. It's like finally, we're just, we're trying to get through it. Not texting, we got you on. We're gonna put me on dope boys. That's like me when to call and why won't you date me? Like why won't you put me on the pocket? She's like, I tried it and why won't you date me? Like why won't you put me on a pocket? He's like, I try to.
Starting point is 00:17:46 He's a consensus, no one wants to. It's that sort of, anyone who messages to be on, I'm very, it's a very funny thing. I'm like, I'm always grateful. I want people to come on the phone. It's nice, yeah. But then I feel bad because like there's always some sort of wait list.
Starting point is 00:18:01 And then of course, you're like, Dick Dorksleyies to come on. I'm like, what the fuck is dick dorks? He's actually one of the strike captains. Okay, fine. Let's get dick dorks. Oh, yeah. Son of that. Yeah. Dick dorksley's great. The mega phone. The fucking. Oh, shut his mouth. He's got his cap down.
Starting point is 00:18:18 Tell me what to do out there. Why are there is a strike cap? It's true. Yeah, you're pretty good. You're a nice. Why are you, is this strike cap? It's true. Yeah, you're pretty good. You're a cool cap. You're a cool one. I just don't like being yelled at when I was with the cone. I'm not, like I'm gonna walk around the cone,
Starting point is 00:18:34 but sometimes I'm talking to a buddy and I miss the cone and then they go crazy. I'm really bad with things. Keep the piece. To deescalate, I think is the prior. I think most people are doing that. I'm bad with like the with the call and response. I don't know why that's inherently embarrassing to me.
Starting point is 00:18:49 And as a performer, we do embarrassing things all the time and you can get yourself to a place to do that if you want to, but then when someone is like, when I say fair, you say contract, I'm like contract. I don't really do it that much. Shut it out. I'm scared. I don't know why I'm scared. I know what you mean. Do you feel that way in a crowd? Like in an audience? Yeah, I think it's I think it's more
Starting point is 00:19:10 of a crowd in an audience to but if I'm on stage, I'll be loud and annoying or here. Yeah, but if I'm on the line, I'm gonna counter. That's all I can get out of it. Interesting. I mean, I want the fair contract. I don't know. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that sounds like you do. You break in if you contract. There you go. Even that was, I couldn't, like I can't, I know what you mean. On this track line, I have trouble with it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:34 For some reason, maybe I don't know, I'm not ready for what I have to say yet. Yeah. But I'm a fan of calling a response because I'm a rapper, so I do that a lot, like on stage. Yeah, I have to. But if it's you who has to respond, or you do like,
Starting point is 00:19:46 I guess I, yeah, I've never been in a, I guess that was the first time, yeah. On the right, so I climb when I had to like respond. Yeah, you don't feel as much control. I think there's like things of like, like it's very high school thing when I'm like afraid of like,
Starting point is 00:19:58 I'm afraid of being, like getting made fun of her being a door, which I think it's cool to support the, to yell it out and support it. So I, but also I don't know if it's like a Catholic thing of like don't yell or I don't know what the fuck it is. I'm just telling you that I'm embarrassed by it, wouldn't it? Okay, you'll get it fine.
Starting point is 00:20:14 All right, fine, I'll do it. Next time I'm gonna yell. I'll go get one. I'll see you out there. Oh, man, you know what, you know what, you're really like to do it? Like I'll just like, if someone else is like this. I say taste test, you say come.
Starting point is 00:20:24 I say, that's the one I scream out for. I hear you. I'm saying. My attitude if I'm part of the response section of the call and response is like, oh, I can be loud and then I'll get other people on board and make everyone, you know, I mean, so like I kind of like me and I feel like the anonymity of the crowd, no one's really paying attention to who's like making
Starting point is 00:20:48 noise. So it's like, I don't mind being like the fucking loud person, that's it. We all strike in our own way. It's true. Some don't go to the big line at all. Some continue just work in movies with vouchers. People strike in all sorts of weird ways. Oh, by the way, Dick Dorksley is in a movie right now. So he's in that glen-close movie. So you said you saw a straight, I've been punched up on that movie. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So I didn't, I was gonna see it tomorrow though. I want to see. I don't know what jokes got in. Maybe seven or
Starting point is 00:21:24 there's a joke of that like I really genuinely laughed at. Oh yeah. Yeah, there's, there's, there's a, there's a really fun. All right, I'm, it's, I'm, I'm gonna go see it tomorrow, like, after noon, see how, see how I was trying to, I was trying to support. That's great. You want the, you want the theatrical comedies to succeed? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:40 Of course. It's almost a bummer that it's like, oh, it is like animals instead of human beings. Right. Like there's actors voicing them, it's fine. You know what I mean? Like, I'm saying like you want like, you want like a regular, a thing that doesn't need a hook. Exactly. Comedy's to be in theaters again.
Starting point is 00:21:55 We're not allowed to write them or talk about them. Oh yeah. Oh, we can't suppose to promote this, huh? I mean, like, I'm not promoting, I shouldn't, I'm not promoting stress at all. I was being critical of it. Yeah, actually, I don't even know if my joke got in, so I don't know if I had anything to do with that movie. I've done those jobs before and it's like,
Starting point is 00:22:12 you do punch up on something and then like it comes out and like you might, it is like, you try to, you're kind of hunting for like, oh wait, there's like a, I got like two and a half things in here. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, hey, that's a win. It's fun, yeah, sure. Okay, there was some effort there, but's like a, I got like two and a half things in here. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, hey, that's a win. It's fun, yeah, yeah, sure. Okay, there was some effort there.
Starting point is 00:22:28 Yeah. But, you know, but it's weird nostalgia, like I'm trying to figure out my homework bound nostalgia, not, for some reason it's not connecting with, like I'm not feeling it. Like I want to be like, this is like homework bound. I don't know. Is it just too long ago or something? Home or bound to move? Home or bound is like Homer Bound. Bound, is it just too long ago or something? Homer Bound, the moon.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Homer Bound is a long time ago. And also like those movies are tough to be nostalgic about because you like you read about production. It's like 500 puppies died on the end of the day. Oh my God, this is damn fucking Graham. So like I think a lot of them, I don't know which one it was, but there was one that was really bad.
Starting point is 00:23:00 Well okay, so the- The Miloan Stitch one? No, not Miloan Stitch. No, the Miloan and Southerners. I don't Stitch, no, the Miloan. Miloan and S. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Yeah, I think that one had a famously eye body count. And there was also like the, a lot of puppies got parvo and like died on the buddies movies.
Starting point is 00:23:15 Yeah, so like after all the airbuds, they did like, you know, space buddies and what I'm sure about the first one was. The first one was airbuds. Where all the buddies are ghosts. There is, yeah, spooky buddies. Yeah. Treasure buddies.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Treasure buddies. They're all good. A great way to start with the podcast, make everyone sad about these buddies. We're full of piss. What do you want? I got the fuck you on from us. We didn't do it.
Starting point is 00:23:39 It's fucking vinegar. It's fucking dizziness. It's a shot of vinegar for our cake. But I do have to pee a lot lately. Is that mean I'm healthy? I want to go to the counter. Like is it good? I mean you're healthy or maybe unhealthy.
Starting point is 00:23:52 I think you can either want. If you're staying hydrated and you're urinating a lot, I think that's good. I think if you're like, if you're peeing a lot and you don't understand why, that could be a sign of something. You know what I'm gonna explain? I'm gonna explain.
Starting point is 00:24:03 Too much information about I'm gonna go with it. Dribble stream. I want that stream to get a little, I, I, too much information, I'm gonna go with a dribble stream. I want that stream to get a little, it's, so that's aging, that's the natural aging crowd. It's not strong enough anymore. Yeah. Damn. Like I be, like, peeing on a floor, sub-size now. Yeah, that's what's happening.
Starting point is 00:24:19 That's weird, like, cause I'd never, like the bowl is right there. I don't know, if that makes you feel really old, like I'm like just not, like just like not getting it in there. No, yeah, you still have that fucking jet stream, like bam, like just fucking got it. She's like a egg rice.
Starting point is 00:24:33 Exactly. That's the thing. And now, no, it's a little bit of a- I always find it holes in the wall. Yeah. Well, okay, so I've embraced while we're in your town, I have embraced the sit down pee. And that's the big thing, I love that.
Starting point is 00:24:45 That's my default P now. I just sit down and it's like, first of all, it's a chance to sit down, especially been walking around or whatever. But then also, I don't have to worry about the dribbles. Get a little dip for your, okay. Dip for your dog too. I'm saying you, not me, I'm not getting close.
Starting point is 00:25:01 It'd be hitting the water, Nick. You be hitting the water, Nick. You'd be hitting the water, huh? Well, look. I'm hoping to get past lid. And it got nasty up in here. The thing is, the crowd saying is interesting. Because there's like that myth of, I don't know if it's a myth, but like how people at restaurants if they're mad at you, they come in your food or whatever. Oh, yeah
Starting point is 00:25:25 Yeah, right would be interesting if y'all did it, but the the comments from different people's restaurant like workers at different restaurants Oh, right, right if you could taste it or whatever There'll be a Ramajianos subway that would be so gross But you know, yes, it's just a thought. I mean, that's a good pitch. Yeah, yeah Look, that's what the punch up process is. Like, you could throw an idea out there and maybe when you listen the episode, that idea will be part of you.
Starting point is 00:25:48 I'll see if it's the thing. Hey, okay, okay. I think punch up on that episode, that's not it. I have one joke, I get a punch up on that, come joke, they have. I don't think it's in there. Let's talk food a little bit, because we were at the restaurant,
Starting point is 00:26:05 and Lamar, you're telling me that you have grown to love home cooking. You're a big time, just chef in your own home. Not for me. Yeah. You don't like cooking. Give me the takeout. What do you not like about it? Because I've been trying to figure out,
Starting point is 00:26:19 because there's times where I'm like, don't want to do it. Is it just the cleanup? I feel like the cleanest. I'm joking a little bit, but yes, for real, for me. I mean, I love someone else's home cooking. I don't like my home cooking. I don't think I'm a great chef, first of all. I think that is an issue.
Starting point is 00:26:35 I thoroughly reject that, Mitch. I've had pizza. I've had your bar pizza. You can follow a recipe. Like if you put your mind to it, you can execute good food. I just choose not to do it. I haven't tried, I haven't like worked. Well, I haven't for dinner, I haven't worked with proteins in a long time.
Starting point is 00:26:52 I've worked with them in other ways. I think there's like, what, we talked come earlier. I can't make a joke now, say I've worked with proteins, and we're like, I jacked off. It just sounded gross in the way you said it. proteins, we were like, I jacked off. So that's gross. So that's gross. So here's what I think, what I realized, because I never thought I was a good cook, but I realized that if you like good food, you're probably a good cook, because you're just putting in what I think tastes good.
Starting point is 00:27:18 And then it's like, so when I'm, like when are the lessons I learned, like I was messing up a lot, because in the pandemic I started cooking, and it was just bad, it was gross. And then I, one of the things that when I'm like, when are the lessons I learned? Like I was messing up a lot. Because in the pandemic I started cooking, and it was just bad, it was gross. And then I, one of the things that when I was watching videos, how to do it, when are the rules is like, you gotta taste it as you're doing it.
Starting point is 00:27:34 So every time you put season in, like taste this, and then now I'm like, ooh, that tastes good. And then so when it comes out, I'm like really into it, because it's just like I like how food taste. Or I like good food. But yeah, I've just been cooking more, because of the strike really, I'm like really into it because it's just like I like how food tastes. They're like good food. Yeah. But yeah, I've just been cooking more because of the strike really.
Starting point is 00:27:48 I'm just broke. I like eating a lot, but I just like, no, I'm like, okay, let me figure out how to like feed myself. Do you have a go-to dish to prep? Stay always stay, stay like I do a rib-eye. I've been doing this not a rib bite New York strip okay with a side of a sparey guess and then I do this red wine mushroom sauce That's like so good with his portabella mushrooms to cut it up and put a little garlic in there I like saute it then put a little red wine and a little
Starting point is 00:28:21 Corn starch and his gravy dri drip it all over the steak. Man, you know what I'm saying? It's delightful. Yeah. How do you cook that steak? Medium rare, of course, yeah. I mean, you know what I mean? I'm in a cast iron.
Starting point is 00:28:32 We put it, we're doing the cast iron with the rosemary, the garlic and butter. Yeah, I like the, yeah, I just like low old school style. But I've been doing, I've been doing good. If you want to come out, I've been doing this thing that's kind of creepy. It's not creepy, but I think it comes off creepy.
Starting point is 00:28:47 But like, if I have friends who are in a relationship, like, and I know both of them, like, I had a couple that I know that just got married or whatever, and I was like, I invited them over to cook for them. And whenever I meet people who are in relationships, I'll like, I'll cook for you and your wife or whatever. Wow.
Starting point is 00:29:04 But it's, cause I don't like... That's not creepy at all, that's not creepy. That's not creepy. Okay, I just prefer that, and they just like say, I just mean you. You know what I'm saying? I just don't wanna cook for this like a dope man. Yeah, sure.
Starting point is 00:29:16 I know, I guess that. What are you doing in my house? Like, I don't know, I don't like cooking for myself either. Yeah, sure. Because that feels depressing, because it's good. So there's a way for me to like test out my skills on it. Like it's these like, you'll get something out of it. It's something nice for y'all to do.
Starting point is 00:29:34 That's a trick. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you guys can do it together. That will be creepy. That would be great. That's not just like a fun social thing. That's a format. And I'm not saying you have to turn that into something, but that's like third wheel. It's like that's like a, you could, that could be a show.
Starting point is 00:29:53 Oh yeah, like the third wheel, the third wheel shaft. Third wheel. Yeah. I think it could be fun. I mean, I like doing it. Especially when you, you know, when your friends get married and stuff, you just don't see them anymore. So it's a way to stay in touch and hang out with them
Starting point is 00:30:08 without them having to feel like they had to like, you know, leave the partner at home or whatever. I love that. Okay, so, so, you know, you're talking about the steak with like, what do we call it? Like a Madera sauce, just a mushroom. Mushroom? Yeah, just mushroom red wine sauce.
Starting point is 00:30:22 Okay, so you've got that, like, but that's, that's, to me seems a little bit elaborate. There's some steps involved. You gotta have some, you know, a nicer ingredients. Do you have a go-to, like, easy dish? Easy dish is this fried cabbage. So, just some fried cabbage and some sauces. Put it up in there with some peppers.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Ooh, boy. It's where the God, you'll love it. I mean, I know you know, me, but we could do like a vegetarian version of that easy. Oh, that's awesome. It's really good. Wow. Yeah He eats he eats some oh you don't I mean is the one. Yeah, okay, so you like eat some and do we some chicken and do we yeah, I would wonder 100% yeah What about bacon? I don't eat pork right now. Yeah, so yeah, yeah, is it is it is a pig-based?
Starting point is 00:31:01 Yeah, I'm trying to avoid pig like eating pigs. It makes you feel it. Yeah, I don't know. I felt that was like, there was a thing I felt weirdest about. And especially when I ate, when I was eating no meat at all for a while, when coming back to it, it's just like I just don't have a craving
Starting point is 00:31:13 for this anymore. I don't know. I try not to think about it at all. I just, I'm hoping the pigs are meeting are evil. Yeah. Yeah. I was like, I can get you.
Starting point is 00:31:23 The sound that I was just like bad. Yeah, it's gonna are just like bad things. Yeah, it's gonna be bad, bad things. I, here's the thing that I always order out and I can't make a good version of. I really don't think I can, and I also think that when you order out, it is way more fresh and they just have
Starting point is 00:31:38 all the ingredients in stock, but I just had a salad from sweet green. Bun. And I, every time I try to make a salad, that's as good, I just not gonna, it's not gonna happen. Oh, salads are like, that's hard to make, right? Yeah. Here's the thing, I think I can make a good salad.
Starting point is 00:31:54 I think it's pretty straightforward. It's just a matter of, yes, you want to have like some fresh ingredients, but honestly, like it's, I think a lot of times people overthink it, they put in too many components. I think if you've got a base of green, just some greens you have some sort of protein you're gonna use to anchor it.
Starting point is 00:32:11 And then it's just like whatever you got. You got some bell peppers, dice those up. You got some, you can throw mushrooms in there. If you like those, you can throw in some celery, throw in some cucumbers, but just pick like three or four things and throw those in there with the greens, and then throw on the protein
Starting point is 00:32:26 and the dressing your choice. This is like pretty solid. Very functional people who are like, go to the grocery store every day. Like, what you're saying? I have these issues. I should go in my refrigerator. Yeah, that's okay.
Starting point is 00:32:35 So that's the thing. So like, if you start incorporating like, okay, I wanna have some stuff on hand to be able to make some salads, you know, throughout the week. And I am not always great about it. Sometimes I'll just like, I've got greens and like some cherry tomatoes
Starting point is 00:32:45 and that would be enough. But look at that though, I feel like every time I make a salad, it looks shitty. It doesn't look pretty when you go to a restaurant. Yeah, I make it so. It's tough to, I will more just like toss it with the dressing so I'm like, like how it looks, I'm less worried about. You know what, the thing you need to help us have it.
Starting point is 00:33:00 The big bowl is helpful. Big bowl and look, we got some big bowls. We got like some big like ramen sized bowls that are very good. But what I was gonna say is, Oh, actually, I'm gonna fucking brag about your big bowl is helpful. Big bowl and look, we got some big bowls. We got like some big like ramen sized bowls that are very close. But what I was gonna say is, I'm actually not gonna fucking brag about your big bowl. Big, I'm just saying. The other thing I was gonna say is
Starting point is 00:33:12 have some dry components like some nuts. I got some big bowls in there. I got their big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big water, the big bones. It's crazy. I got that same problem. It like splashed. It's a dare again freaking.
Starting point is 00:33:34 And he's a full of piece of it. We're coming up in a break. The has some dry components, like have some like some nuts or some seeds, because I look forever and like I like I got some, I got some slivered almonds or I've got some, some nuts or some seeds because I'll keep forever and like I like I got some I got some slivered almonds or I've got some you know sunflower seeds or whatever just whatever I like That's got a little bit of crunch and I can throw that in there You know what you dress it. What's your go-to dressing?
Starting point is 00:33:54 Well look you can make like like a Caesar dressing or ranch dressing This is better pretty easy to make fresh on your own so like I'll oftentimes do something like that Should sound like work. Yeah, yeah. But also like, you just get like a nice green goddess dressing, like something that has to be, get something that's in the refrigerated section of your grocery store, because it's like gonna be a little fresher and a little nicer.
Starting point is 00:34:15 I didn't know that, that's a little. Let me tell you, my mom makes a Caesar salad. I think it's like maybe even from a Betty Crocker and old Betty Crocker cookbook. It's fucking good as hell. Wow, it's really good. Because I'll, you know what, I can maybe tell you what it is. It's romaine, you got romaine.
Starting point is 00:34:30 Sure. And then I think it's lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and a coddled egg. I think that's what it is. I think you can add anchovies you want, we never do. And then I think you, and so you coddle the egg, you mix all that together, the lemon juice, and then Parmesan cheese.
Starting point is 00:34:47 But then also, we toast up some Italian bread. We put some butter on there. And then we put some garlic salt on there. Oh my goodness. That's pretty much it. So if you wanna try it, it's great. Okay, so that's another thing. Like if you don't mind throwing some croutons in there,
Starting point is 00:35:02 it's like you get some like old bread and you just bake your own croutons, you put some seasoning on them, some olive oil, that's a dream. There's olive oil in there. Is that bad? Is that easy? That's pretty straightforward, yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:11 You put garlic cloves in the olive oil, and then I think you use the olive oil to the soil part of it. Wow. It's good, it's good as hell. Right. Michael, don't reveal my Caesar salad recipe. Michael, I've over-cottled the egg.
Starting point is 00:35:27 I've heard that before. Let's talk Mexican food a little bit because Laura, last time we spoke when we talked about what you wonder what you actually was shocked that you hadn't been to this place when you I thought I thought this was a spot that you love. Right. Because you were you were saying you wander of you a Mexican place when we did the podcast next and we picked some options to you. But like, what do you go? Did I say that?
Starting point is 00:35:48 I was wondering. I was wondering why I was like, why is it all Mexican food? Because then I was like, I was like, I want that shit. No, I probably said that. You were never saying that. I wanted it at the time. Because there's that spot across the street
Starting point is 00:36:03 that I, it's just like probably is on my mind. But lately I've been, I don't, no, I was happy. I had, but that spot, it's probably went to early, been wanting to go there. I could keep hearing about it and I was like, ooh, let's do that. So I was like really excited. You went out like, I love Mexican food, yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:17 You, you 100% asked for a Mexican chain specifically. And then I love that you forgot about it. Cause I'm just been so, I don't know, it was a bit at least, it's like a, least a couple months. It was like, I thought you were doing like, so kind of like, best get a shot against it, so kind of.
Starting point is 00:36:31 No, this is not the return of mouth of the border. This is a, this is an individual episode. But okay, so what do you remember mouth? Was that the burrito competition? Yeah, we did that. That was like 2018 or something. So what is your favorite? Like in terms of dishes
Starting point is 00:36:45 and or restaurants? I love burritos. I love, so I love Hugo's tacos right on open out water. That's my spot. I go there all the time. They got a real good, they got the black beans with the rice in there. I like burritos, burritos are rice in them.
Starting point is 00:37:00 Oh yeah. And then there's a cool little, I love breakfast burritos. There's this like a spot up in corner cottage up in Burbank. They got it. Good as breakfast burrito, but it closes at 11. So actually now that we strike it up and whenever we up, it does need help. You like, I'll be pulling up because a mom actually up in that side had a town. But I think for the most part burritos and tacos, yeah, that's pretty much
Starting point is 00:37:22 sort of how I get down. But yeah. I mean, I got this talk area. Yeah, you know, I used to sort of how I get down. But yeah, I mean, I cactus, takarilla. Yeah, you know, I used to go there when I first moved to LA all the time. That was like my go to spot. Have they slipped a little bit maybe? I don't know, I get go back.
Starting point is 00:37:34 They're still they're good as hell. I feel like they're not over where I live anymore. I got it like really go there. Right. You get to it. There's one I'm vine and cactus is my favorite. That's what I used to go to all the time. Yeah, cactus is my favorite burrito and LA. I's why I say that's all it's time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:45 Cactus is my favorite burrito and L.A. I love, I've talked about this. Good spot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. I have been around for a while now. They expand in a little bit. Much like today's chain.
Starting point is 00:37:56 Kind of a similar, but also cactus was that place on Vine was like very much a hole in the wall. And then the ones in Burbank kind of nicer, the ones in the valley are nicer. This place, the place we're talking about today, always kind of a pretty nice spot. Yeah, I've never been to the original location, but everyone I've been to is similar. What's the original location? The original one is in, I think it's in Boyle Heights. Oh, Boyle Heights, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:21 I thought this was the original one. No, this is not the original one. The original one is further east, but like so. This one's been around for, this is the second location then, right? Yeah, I feel heights. I know, I thought this was the original one. No, this is not the original one. The original one is further east. But like so. This one's been around for, this is the second location then, right? Yes, I think so. Because this one's been around forever.
Starting point is 00:38:30 Yeah, but, but all the ones I've been to have been consistent in terms of like decor and vibes, you know? Yeah, yeah. And it feels nice. It feels like a nice, it's, it's not, I wanna say upscale, but it feels like a pleasant approach of what you know. I felt great when I was with the air, which I thought we just felt like I could be here pleasant approach. Yeah, I felt great when I was with the Airetale.
Starting point is 00:38:46 We just felt like I could be here all day. Yeah, I was born out of Lee, but I think that's like a good. It just felt like a cool restaurant. Yeah, not to mention the two guys who care of us, who wags, you have their names. Yeah, I sure do. You know what? We'll get to that right after this break.

Starting point is 00:44:06 It'll be like, like Scott Ockermann, and we're like, all right, we'll take a break. All right, we're back from break. And like, if you're in the room recording it, it'll be like, you're doing. I'll call it off, it's calling off Scott. Specifically Scott Ockermann, we'll do this. Yeah, he's the part of the fake break.
Starting point is 00:44:19 Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so like, there will be a, like, you'll be a lot of podcasts do this though. It's just for efficient to say. I do not mind not too. Yeah, exactly. We took a legit break. We took an actual break. All three of us. You're in a, we all are drained of piss. I would call myself a dry guy at this point. Yeah. I feel great. I feel great. Yeah. We take a break. We say take as much time you want. You can take a couple hours. If you want to, we're cool with anything. Sometimes I guess leaves and then we don't have an episode.
Starting point is 00:44:45 That's fine, we'll work with it. I can't believe you're gonna piss out the pod file there like that, you're gonna wake up with the top half of a me undies in your bed. I couldn't think of a horse equivalent. It's industry wide, it's a thing that a lot of people do. Here's the thing I wanted to take a piss. I'm pissing, I, I pissed out my industry wide. It's a thing that a lot of people do. Here's the thing I want to take a piss. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:05 I'm pissing, I hear. I pissed out my vinegar, Wags. Oh, no. So now just fill with piss, no vinegar. You gotta be careful which ball you're pissing out of. All right, no. And that's a go separately. Ladies don't know this, guys can choose which ball
Starting point is 00:45:21 they piss out of. It's a thing we do. And it's all thing, you only know if you're a dude. Only dudes know this. Yeah. Yeah. It's a dude thing. Gisato's was founded in 2010 in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of LA.
Starting point is 00:45:33 The Armando de la Torre senior and junior are behind this, this company. There are eight locations in the greater LA area. The menu is taco focused, I would say. They have a few other items, but it's really driven towards tacos and their tacos are just fresh tortillas made to order and they're all topped with braised and stewed proteins. Like they're not really grilling anything, everything's in some sort of stew.
Starting point is 00:45:53 I tell you that when I had one of my balls hurt, one of my testicles hurt, sorry. And I went to the doctor and they did like, they like did a scan on my balls. Yeah. And he's like, one of your balls is like smaller than the other one and like smaller than normal. So I have like one kind of like,
Starting point is 00:46:09 wow, I got a weak ass ball. One of my balls is like a weak or a ball. I got a runt. Oh man. One of my balls is a runt. You can tell from looking or just, I mean, it looks like a family of runts down there. You're other balls also smaller than normal.
Starting point is 00:46:26 But this is how I'm comparatively small. Yeah, but compared to the other one, it's huge. Yeah, I got a ronster there. I got one ronter ball. Wow. Anyways, where you're saying you're talking about the food? Yeah, we're- The father and son who started this business together,
Starting point is 00:46:39 the small business out of nothing. That's just gracing it. I didn't know that it was like homegrown. Like I was here, if it were like, and I also didn't know, is this stew base like that? Yes, yeah. Well, that's the thing I like, I read when I was reading about it, and I sort of like, I was like,
Starting point is 00:46:57 oh yeah, I guess every time I've had something from there, it's like something that's just been like simmering for a while, you know? Yeah. It's based, sounds like a certain TV show. Um. I, I love this place and I think sometimes our listeners, maybe, I, I know there's been some exasperation recently when we would do, we cover a place that's like pretty exclusive
Starting point is 00:47:16 to LA. But this is a place I do feel like if you're coming to LA, make a trip to Gisados and try it out because it's like a great, it's just a great taco shot. It's one of the spots I tell people to do. Yeah, yeah. But it was also very approachable. Like if you're not like, hey, I don't know, I'm not necessarily comfortable going to like a random truck
Starting point is 00:47:35 on the street and just ordering, I maybe don't, I'm in over my head cause I don't normally do that. This is a place where you can go and have things explain to you and understand exactly how you're getting into. Yeah, so it's great from that standpoint. It was a father-son combo, huh? That's right, yeah, yeah. I didn't really hear it, can you say it again?
Starting point is 00:47:51 The whole thing? I guess not the whole thing. Armando de la Torre, senior and junior, the father-in-son. I like... I was thinking about my run-ball, I'm sorry. I didn't, I zoned out. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but I do like that it is not a appropriated restaurant. Yes, and it's also like, no, no, that's absolutely, that's absolutely a great point. And it also
Starting point is 00:48:22 is not a place that has decided to partner with a franchising company and be like, now they're like 200 Gisados all over the country. And it's kind of like generic and philosophy. If you would have told me that was the original, I would have believed I'd be like. 100% it feels like the only version of this. Yes.
Starting point is 00:48:38 Because in LA you'll go to like Wands, Takarria, and then like there'll be like some white lady in there like, this is the lady the owner of this place. Yeah, it is. A lot of the time is what happens. It's like, it's like. And then they begin now. And not to say that those restaurants can't be good
Starting point is 00:48:50 and you can't be inspired by other food, but I do like that it's not like some random white dude who owns Gusatos. Right, 100%. Yeah. So, we went to the Echo Park location. And this is my spot, this is my location. Let me say this, bitch.
Starting point is 00:49:06 You and I had, we'd reached out to the Marble, like, hey, we're gonna go at this time, if you wanna make it. And you're kinda like, I get something going on. Then you surprised us by showing up, you pulled a suzer. I'm dead, yeah, oh, it was wild. What a move. Yeah, I didn't think I could make it,
Starting point is 00:49:19 but I was like, you know what, it's Wednesday, and we'll pull up on y'all. And I could not tell you how perfect the timing was. Yeah. We literally arrived at the same time. We were there the same exact time. It was perfect timing. Susser doesn't think that accounts is showing up
Starting point is 00:49:33 as a surprise because you are the guest. He says, only some counts as a Susser surprise if you'd have nothing to do with the episode and then go and get a meal for free. Yeah, because that's typically what he's doing. So if I wasn't guessing this right, I just popped up on you. Yeah, which is impossible for anyone else to do,
Starting point is 00:49:51 except for Sonsa. It's the only one I can do that. He's the only one I can do it. Like if Emma and Amelia showed up or if Casey showed up, we'd be like, oh good, the people who work with us are here. And Sussa is just more like, like what are you doing? Why are you here?
Starting point is 00:50:07 He's the only one. But for you, it did make sense that you came. It was great. It was great timing. Yeah. Yeah. The parking situation on that one is a little tight. There's only a few spots,
Starting point is 00:50:18 but there is there is parking. Amble street parking. There's ample street parking. Yeah, it was because it looked like the parking lot was, that Mitch helped me with that. He was like, are you sure about this? It was a good like 10 minutes of like trying to figure out if I should park here. And not even know there was clearly spaces on the street. Lamar was in resident parking, I believe. And I was like, I don't know if that belongs to Guisados. Yeah. Guisados. Yeah. There's also like a, a, a, yeah, we did, we did ask a Rigo and Chui who
Starting point is 00:50:42 helped us out how to pronounce the restaurant, the name of the restaurant. So we're doing it well. I love those two guys. They were great. They were so nice. They were so great. They were so great.
Starting point is 00:50:52 They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great.
Starting point is 00:51:00 They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great.
Starting point is 00:51:08 They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so great. They were so, this is this. And I was like, great, they made me feel like an idiot or anything. And we didn't get the name of the woman who, like, came up to us and talk through every talk. She was great. She was also awesome. The staff there is great. And it's been an experience every time I've been there. Rigo?
Starting point is 00:51:16 Rigo and Chui, yeah. Rigo's, I liked Rigo a lot. He gave a shout out to maybe a show. He's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's,, oh, you weren't there for that. Oh, yeah. Oh, do you mean your show? Yeah. You did, you're right. I was there for that.
Starting point is 00:51:30 But then also he wanted to listen, well, I think, Chui started this. Also, Jesus, his name. His name was Jesus, that sounded weird. Wow, that's interesting. Not his. He said, he's also. Rigo said Jesus. He is, okay. But maybe Jesus it said it's a movie. Not his. He said, Rigo said Jesus.
Starting point is 00:51:45 So yeah, so but but but maybe Jesus, but that's Rigo told me Jesus. But Chui was quite the character and he was asking about Doe Boyz. He had me right down the podcast name and then Rigo and Chui were both saying they were going to listen to it. And we warned them as we were leaving. I was like, it's bad. It might be a piss episode.
Starting point is 00:52:02 It might be. Yeah, listen to us talk about piss and come and run nuts. I love it. You're the one who's the one who's the two of you going to love it. We love two of you. It's me, Lamar. I didn't get to meet you all. I left early.
Starting point is 00:52:16 I had to go to sleep. I want you to know that you guys are great. If you listen to me, be listening to me. You're great. Gisados, you should be great. All our experience with your employees was fantastic. Well, okay, and the best. Okay. Gisados, you should be, all our experience with your employees was fantastic. Well, okay, and I've been to this place
Starting point is 00:52:28 a bunch, Mitch, and I think you have two, and I've been to multiple locations. Like, they've been to West Hollywood, one, I'm in the downtown, one, I'm into this one, and universally, it's always like a very helpful, friendly staff. Oh, it's, and also, I would say this is a place where part of what I think makes this so accommodating
Starting point is 00:52:43 and newbie friendly is that they have a thing, first off, they have a ton of vegetarian and pescatarian options. They have two vegan tacos. And then they also have, it's like they have a six mini tacos sample and a platter, both of you both got.
Starting point is 00:52:56 Absolutely. Yeah. And so I've had that before and I kind of told Lamar, it's like it's great to test a lot of different tacos. I don't think you get, I think if you get the individual tacos, they just are better. There's a few tacos you can't get in the sampler platter, but it's a great way to try different, like a lot of different flavors. It's great.
Starting point is 00:53:15 If you're going for it, this is your one visit because you're out from out of town, or if you're going like for your first visit and you're not really sure what to get, it's a great way. You can try to try and have a great, for if you live here. Cause I was thinking like, if I just was out of town, I would wish I would have gotten a fish joint. I was like, whoa. But like now that I have done the sampler,
Starting point is 00:53:34 like I'm like craving these tacos, like I'm gonna come, I want to go back and get, now I know what to get. Yes. Yeah. Lamar ordered this, the little did he know that we were going to order like five pounds of food each.
Starting point is 00:53:48 But he got the sampler taco platter and I was almost like, you should get more. And then we, I got the fish taco. Yeah. And we went back, he was like, can I try a bite of this? And I was like, yeah, and I was like, you know what? Have the whole thing. Thank you. I'm going to go get another one because you need to have, I think that that fish taco,
Starting point is 00:54:04 I'm going to say it, I think is to have, I think that that fish taco, I'm gonna say it, I think it's like one, maybe my favorite taco of all time. It's a home road. It's a great fish taco, it's a grilled fish taco, which is a good one. You know what kind of gives the fried one, but this is the great execution of grilled version. It's so fucking good.
Starting point is 00:54:19 And you know what it gives vibes of? Kind of gives cool ranch Dorito vibes. There's like a cool, like that's like the sour cream and the flavors mix. It has like, and I don't want to scare people off because I love cool ranch Doritos, but like just like the kind of the flavors that you get going there, it's great.
Starting point is 00:54:38 That's like. Thank you for letting me eat that. Of course, yeah. I didn't tend to just getting a bite and then leave it, but I'm so glad you did. I enjoyed it. It was the favorite. I mean, everything I had there.
Starting point is 00:54:49 That came out of my own gluttony too, where I was like, I just want a full one. So I went and got another one. But yeah, I started off with the samplers and Wags, we got to talk about it because I think it's a huge part of this place. And I'm not even a corn tortilla guy. Yeah, but man, those tortillas are fucking so...
Starting point is 00:55:09 They're fantastic. So fucking good. And that's what really elevates a taco shop, is like if they have the fresh handmade tortillas and here they have like, they have their own like a mosa they get and they're making them in-house. And they made it order. They're so soft, they're so delicious.
Starting point is 00:55:23 And then you know, all the proteins they put do you know put on them are so well prepared. But yeah, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that,
Starting point is 00:55:32 that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that but it's one of my favorite fish tacos. I love it. I got one for myself. We also got Mitch Wiedch, got the shrimp tacos,
Starting point is 00:55:45 the kimmeronis, which is shrimp, onion, bell peppers, and myelchipote, lace-hour cream. Really, really good. I like that a lot. I think you can just get fish tacos there and be set. Just the seafoods are great. I'll tell you my order. My normal order, at the end, when we talk about stuff more,
Starting point is 00:56:05 but I have a go-to order there. I'm trying to look at the menu right now, by the way, because I want to see what my six tacos were. But I have a go-to order and I'm never, ever disappointed. Like, there's never been a time where I've gone to Guasados and been like, that was bad. It's never happened. I know you got the Cheacharone, which is like pork rinds.
Starting point is 00:56:28 It's like like stewed pork rinds. Which I've got, I like that one. I've had that in the past when I'm eating pork. And how was that for you? I liked it. It was good. Again, it's not in my rotation of the ones that I usually get. What I'm gonna tell you, the six I got,
Starting point is 00:56:44 why is my six sample tacos? Yeah, I got the steak paccato, which is flank steak, simmered in green bell pepper, peppers and bacon. There's bacon in that. Did you know that? I noticed that. It's the same thing I got, right?
Starting point is 00:56:56 I can't remember which was in it. I guess bacon. I don't think there was bacon in ours. I really don't, but I did the steak. We're not bacon at all. Unless it's maybe just cook, they just want you to know. There's different locations, so maybe there's no bacon in that one. But I got the molo poblano, which you got as well, which was fantastic.
Starting point is 00:57:16 That was banging. That was the molo. Yeah, yeah. The tinga, which is the chicken tinga, is that one? You got the molo. That's the chicken and chicken with the mayonnaise. I think the tinga is which is the, the chicken Tinga, is that one? You got, you got the, that's the chicken and chicken with the mate. I think the Tinga's maybe one of their most famous. That one's great.
Starting point is 00:57:30 That's been a go-to for me. That one's also a little spicy too. It was good. Yeah, yeah, yeah, a little bit of spice. I got the chicharon. And then I thought that I did get the coach needed Pobil. And I also got a chullette in Choulette Verde. But I think I just named seven tacos, didn't I?
Starting point is 00:57:47 To one, two, three. No. Oh, that's, that was six total. And Wags, the choulette, which is choulette and choulette is dice pork chop and choulette Verde, that is one of my go-to's every time I go. What was that one? There's one right there.
Starting point is 00:58:02 What was that one that was like pasty looking? It kind of looked like a little paste. What was it that one? Yeah, this one. Oh, the coach, that's probably, no, this one. That okay, that's the Cheat Your Own. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:58:15 Yeah, yeah. You like that one? No. Cheat Your Own is, I mean, that's the one, that is that is kind of, some people don't like Cheat Your Own. Okay, so even Rigo was like was like, have you had this before? Like kind of like making sure. So like, you
Starting point is 00:58:28 know, again, those things, like, yeah, like it did feel like I was this was the new thing. Exactly. Yeah, that I was, I you know, it tastes good. I just wasn't my. So yours was slightly different. You got two steak tacos. And then two chicken tacos. And then I think the teacher owned and and the coach needed a pavilion. I think that's those are all yours. That sounds right.
Starting point is 00:58:48 Okay, yeah, I was gonna ask, I don't remember any of you. So good. Yeah, there's two different steak ones. There's a steak bicado and there's a steak in salsa roja. You can almost one bite these tacos. The mini tacos are little, but the full size tacos are substantial. That's like, you get three or four of those, you're set.
Starting point is 00:59:04 Yeah, no. What is the right number of tacos you like in an order? I think I'm a three guy. Be too, yeah, I think three at the normal size. Absolutely. No, it's funny, this is why I don't, I always go burrito over taco. But then in a place like this, there are no burritos.
Starting point is 00:59:17 And this is like, I love this sort of taco shop because it is, you do fill full when you get them too, but yeah, they're substantial. I'm just gonna say get them too, but yeah. There's substantial in there. I'm just gonna say, here's my order here. I get a fish taco and then the choulette and chili verde and then a quesadilla, which is like a, which their quesadilla we have on the top about. Which is fucking great.
Starting point is 00:59:37 We got a second one too, right? We got a second one. One more. That one. It's also in the fresh corn tortilla. It's like, so it's like a, you know, it's like a, it's not your typical quesadilla. one. It's also in the fresh corn tortilla. It's like, so it's like a, you know, it's like a small, like, it's not your typical quesadilla. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:47 It's like a taco. It's like grilled, a grilled thing of cheese in a taco. And it's fucking great. It's like a little sandwich. Yeah, it's tight. It's fantastic. And some, I love that. And some, what's the, it's like a Chipotle,
Starting point is 01:00:00 it's like a Chipotle sour cream. It's got, yeah, it's, no, that is awesome. I mean, look, all, this is the thing is like, we're just, everything tastes so good that it's got. Yeah, it's that. No, that is awesome. I mean, look, all this is the thing is like we're just everything tastes so good that it's just like, it's just like, yeah, that one was good, that other one was really good. It was like, I love that they have black beans and a lot of their tacos. I mean, it's not an approaching normally see, but they work really well. Right. They're making a little more substantial.
Starting point is 01:00:18 I think they bind it everything. I think the fish taco is really, really special, but we tried something else there that's pretty special, YGS, which is a very hot taco. Oh, you're talking about the Chiles Torriados, which was it's four different types of chilies, including abaneros and Thai chilies. They're blistered together, and then they are served on black beans,
Starting point is 01:00:42 and they have some sort of chili sauce that's also on top of it. And that was the thing that was like, when I had a bite of this, because of the thing, you can't really fork a knife a taco. That's right. So we just had to take bites of this bad boy. Lamar, you smartly declined.
Starting point is 01:00:56 My biggest issue is lip contact with the spicy sauce. Cause like that was where the burning was most intense. Oh, so it was right here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was really tough But that one I really felt it wasn't howling raise howling level, but it was pretty Like I was watching both y'all. Yeah, we're sure it was stressing me out Like man, these two white dudes don't look like they look like I just kidnapped them Like I look like perfectly normal. Like, what's wrong with you?
Starting point is 01:01:25 I get out of here. I gotta go. I also like that I was making fun of the white lady owning like a Mexican restaurant and then now trying to say any of the names and I'm like, Chili's Toronto. It's like a fucking idiot. But I'll say this.
Starting point is 01:01:46 I'll say this about that. And you were right to not try it. Yeah. Um, it's hot, but it's also not, it's not challenge. I mean, it's not, it's like, it wasn't, it wasn't like, it was gonna make you feel bad level, but there was a poster in the front lobby. Yes. From Sean Evans, host of Hot Ones,
Starting point is 01:02:05 and it was like, it said, Tumsworthy for the Chili's Toronto or whatever. Yeah, that's a good assessment. I think Tumsworthy is good. It has heat, but I think that that taco is actually enjoyable. Yeah, it tastes good. And I think eating the whole thing would have been tough.
Starting point is 01:02:21 And I think that maybe we'll give you some tummy trouble, but it's not like Howling rays, which again, we loved howling rays, but howling rays, but it's that sort of thing of howling rays put me out of commission for, when I did the howling level, it put me out of commission for like three days. That's tough stuff.
Starting point is 01:02:35 That really fucked me up. Wait, Lamar, we talked about this, and we talked about this previously, but you will have, you're someone who, as you've gotten older, you can't handle spicy foods anymore, just digestively. Which is a fate I fear is approaching for me. I feel like I'm starting to feel that now. It's pushing my body more and more.
Starting point is 01:02:54 I don't know what to do. It's my favorite type of food. I also, I abstain because I probably would have done it, but I had some spicy food like the night before. And I hurt my stomach pretty bad. So I was kind of in recovery mode. So I was like, there's no way I can do this again. But I'm just trying to figure out a balance.
Starting point is 01:03:14 Like I don't wanna give the shit out completely, but I gotta like, I can't just not eat spicy food in here. Like what the hell? What the fuck is that shit? But yeah, we talk about it every time we get here. I'm like, it's not going away. I wish there was some cure though.
Starting point is 01:03:27 Is there a cure for like, I was telling him, is there like a lactate for dairy? And by the way, I can't eat dairy and I ate that cheese thing. I had no problems, which was interesting. So when it's good cheese, when it's not like, so like that shit, you like like really cheap shit. Yeah, yeah. Like I got to handle it.
Starting point is 01:03:49 But yeah, I was thinking there'd be a cool medicine if you take it before you eat spicy food. Yeah, that's great. And your stomach is fine. That would be awesome. We've got to be something like that. I wish that there was, as we talked about home or drink wax in the Simpsons episode.
Starting point is 01:04:02 Yeah. So like you want something like that, basically. What is the type of cheese that's on the case of the year? Kaiso Paneila. Yeah, and it's like kind of like a griddle block of cheese. Yeah, it's not like, yeah, it's not like strategy. Is that your ghost of Christmas future is going to just show you like on the toilet, basically?
Starting point is 01:04:19 It's going to jump out of a year and just show you sitting on a toilet, right? Yeah, it's a bummer. It's a bummer. I like, yeah, I don't know what the move is, You can jump ahead a year and just show you sitting on a toilet. Yeah, that's a bummer. That's a bummer. I don't know what the move is because I do spicy foods and I do find myself opting more and more for like, I'll do like a medium or a pick the non spicy things of the options. Just because I feel so punished later, but I guess you just have to add to exercise
Starting point is 01:04:45 in restraint, it's a bummer. It's over the drain. I love it too. I'm like, I mean, look, I'll still take bites of stuff like that and try things, but I'm never ordering the spicy level. I'm like going mild, I'm Buffalo wings a lot of the time. Yeah, I have to just be, it's almost the thing
Starting point is 01:05:02 I need to talk about in therapy, because it's like psychological, I have not thing I need to talk about in therapy because it's like, it's like psychological. Like, I have not accepted, this is the man I am. Like, I was on this day, we went to a Mexican food too. It was like, yeah, a couple days in the road. But we went to a Mexican restaurant, I'm getting tacos and all types of put hot sauce on it, just trying to, you know, have a good time. And we went to a bar after and it, just trying to, you know, have a good time. And I, and I went to a bar after,
Starting point is 01:05:25 and it was just like lightning. And I had to go right to the bathroom. And it was, it was one of those bars where like, the bathroom is like, it was just one bathroom. It was so many people. It was so stressful. I was in there. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:05:37 I was like, go, I was sweating. I was like, I was like, to the part I was like, I'm gonna have to leave. I'm gonna have to talk to her. I was gonna text her like, I'm sorry. Like, and it was, but it was really vulnerable. I got out, I told her like, because there was no way, at this point, I was in there her like, I'm sorry. But it was really vulnerable. I got out, I told her like, because there was no way,
Starting point is 01:05:47 at this point I was in there so long. So it's like, I can't just lie. And I was like, look, I'm, you know, I don't know what happened there, but. But I just want you to know, like this is who I, like this is the guy, this is the guy you're hanging with. We can keep going, if you want, I feel fine now, but, and she was like, she put out a thing of roll AIDS
Starting point is 01:06:08 and gave me some, you know, I think I'm in love, I don't know. I was like, she was so nice about it. I shit too, Moments. Yeah. I, this is like the same, I remember I went to a Hyperion public, I think I was with Mookie and Dutz, I think it was the duo who I met there. And I was like, my stomach is really hurting.
Starting point is 01:06:27 They're like, could we find there's no in the bar. And then I had to shit in the Hyperion public. Like, and it's one of those scenarios, there's two bathrooms there, luckily, but still, it's that sort of thing where you're like the worst experience in the world. No one wants to shit in the bar. Let's get a walk that you're drinking.
Starting point is 01:06:42 Alas, so they don't care. They have to pee too. So they're like, I have to pee away. What's going on in there? Like who's in there? Bayhid and there's, for some reason, also there's bathroom at this bar. It had like a lot of pornography,
Starting point is 01:06:55 like pornography all over the world. Then you got to jack off too. You got to jack on it. Yeah. It was so strange. But anyway, it's so stressful. But not so, I think the right thing to do is just then like, at the dinner, It was so strange, but anyway, it's so stressful. So I think the right thing to do is just then,
Starting point is 01:07:07 like, at the dinner, I should have just, not, I should have, yeah. And the void, it's like you have the real tough conversation then to avoid the paint, like, you know, because I'm always just hoping I get lucky and not have any problems, but I can't always, every time now. Here's the sad thing is like, even the sweet green hot sauce,
Starting point is 01:07:24 I think gives me problems. I'm like, I'm like, it's bad Here's the sad thing is like even the sweet green hot sauce, I think gives me problems. I'm like, I'm like, it's bad. I love spicy stuff too. Maybe if I get my guts in order, things will work out. I like do need to get my guts in order a little bit, but I think if I don't do it for a while, just relax, maybe I'll get back some. You take probiotics, you take those?
Starting point is 01:07:41 Those also mess up with my, those also, when I'm ever meeting Greek yogurt, I always feel good. Especially yogurt train. I know. You're right, you send me your picks for your yogurt every day. And when I'm on a dirt kick, I'm like, I'm loving it. We got our group chat and we're your dirt chat
Starting point is 01:07:58 with Thunktown where we're sending yogurt picks all the time. I feel like that's like very, like we're all like, when someone's sending yogurt pictures, we're all having more yogurt. And then if someone falls off, it's like everyone's stop seeding yogurt. I feel like we just gotta police ourselves a little bit more. I gotta eat more yogurt.
Starting point is 01:08:15 And I gotta say, using the bathroom in a bar like that is the worst. They're fucking worst. Have you ever read into this where it's like a bathroom where it's got a urinal and a toilet? It's like a guy, both. And so, like, and you were like, I've got to take a shit and there's other people waiting.
Starting point is 01:08:28 And then the guy goes in and it's like, there's two. Like, it's like, I don't want to give you that privacy. Yeah, it's like, what the fuck? I don't want to, and re-rest it like that. Yeah, yeah. And I'm like, I can't sit here. I'm like exposed to it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:41 Brothers, you used to have an exposed toilet. That was fucking insane. And I had walked in there where guys were just taking, just like, hey, someone was just, what type of a shit? What are you being, are you taking two? like exposed to it. Yeah. Brothers used to have an exposed toilet. That was fucking insane. And I had walked in there where guys were just taking, just like, hey, someone was just, what type of human being are you taking? What are you doing? What are you doing, devil?
Starting point is 01:08:52 You're not gonna do it. You're not gonna do it. You're not gonna be right, you're not gonna do it in a second. It's just open. It's open. That's like, happened on more than one of the- Well, that's the logic though, mama. I mean, I don't know who created that system.
Starting point is 01:09:02 In my mind, I'm like, the logical thing to do is to leave the door open so someone else can use it. But like, because it's like, oh, I feel like the way that it's built for two people to be in here. Yeah, sure, yeah. But I mean, I don't wanna do that. No, but if it's a bird, it's just an open toilet.
Starting point is 01:09:16 There's no, you're not behind any door. No, yeah, you're just exposed. What are you, Johnny Sack and the soprano? I'm just taking a fucking open door shit. What's going on here? Are you fucking Lyndon Johnson? Fucking how pacing a reporter? What are you doing?
Starting point is 01:09:27 That's like the most, I think that's the most confident thing you can do in the world. Is it just like, I'm gonna take a shit on this toilet and people can come in and come out and I don't give a shit. That's insane.
Starting point is 01:09:37 Yeah, it's insane. I can't imagine that. That's so insane. That's insane. The other worst spot to go to the bathroom is right next door at UCB, another horrible place. We do it. Yes. Warm up improvs and I'd be going by to use the toilet. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:51 We're like changing into sketch costumes. Yeah. Any situation I feel like and look, the head gum bathrooms are unfortunately also an offender. Anytime it's like the single use bathroom and there's other people just around. It's like, I wanna fucking, you know. You work with a bunch of hunk. Exactly. They take shifts, they're not the wipe, they're gonna go. It's just clean, it's just shining.
Starting point is 01:10:16 It's gonna have shining ready to go. I wonder if that of it's to be in a hunk. I also got a- You're able to get, it was in the bathroom at, at UCB in a rat chump on the shoulder. What? Yeah, nightmare. That is funny and cute.
Starting point is 01:10:29 That is funny. I mean, it's adorable. It's climbed into his hat and did improv for him. He's like, can I get a word? Cheese. Fuck. I'm a cat and you'll Neil get scared for some stage. I do the same thing to you.
Starting point is 01:10:50 If I go on a date or if I'm meeting someone, I'm like, just so you know, like my stomach hurts 90% of the time. And I just, I think that I would never want to talk about with like a possible, like someone who I want to like or want to date or something. Yeah, it's hard. It's just like a thing I know,
Starting point is 01:11:08 like you just have to be like, hey, I, you know what sucks about that though? Like when you, if you continue to see that person, they're kind of, they start policing you a little bit like cause now they don't want to deal with it. Like so, like, so if I'm like, like if I could go out again, I'm like, oh, let's get like, I'm gonna get a little case to do it.
Starting point is 01:11:24 And she's like, you sure you want to do that? It's like, it's like, it's good, it's like, like if I could go out again, I'm like, oh, I should get like, I'm gonna get a little case to do it. And she's like, you sure you wanna do that? It's like, it's like a good, like a care, but they're also like, they're like, I'm not taking care of you guys. So, but then I'm like, I just wanna, I think it makes more sense when you first said, I was like, she's not letting, like I could go to the bathroom like that.
Starting point is 01:11:37 Oh. I don't know. I don't know what that is. Yeah. As you thought? I like, just wasn't letting me. By the hurt policing me. Yeah. It's like, what you telling me?
Starting point is 01:11:51 I wish you could best out there. I'm gonna tell you right now, you not shitting when you admit me. I don't do that with any partner. It's like, when I gotta go, no, you wait till his date is over. But no, I just really that you can't be as loose with food around him now, because it's like, you know, if I just got sober and, you know, but I feel like I can handle a couple glasses of wine,
Starting point is 01:12:16 but maybe you knew the worst version of me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And when we hang out, you're like, you sure you wanna do that? Yeah, exactly. I'm like, you know, as I just wanna have a glass, I'm fine, I'm fine. Yeah. So that's a little hot way. Let a glass, I'm fine, I'm fine. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:25 So that's one of the little hot wings. Let me get a chicken wing. But it's fine. But yeah, so it's a little struggle, but I think I just gotta be honest with where we are. It's not going, it's like I thought it'd be a phase, but like literally, I mean, when the first time I came in this party was like, almost five years ago,
Starting point is 01:12:40 or something. It was a long ago? It was a long time ago. But that was the first time I brought it up, because I had that, it was the last time I had a spicy chicken sandwich. Right, right, right. I thought it would go away and it's, here we are.
Starting point is 01:12:49 And that's not even that spicy, Seth. No. Yeah. So it's just not going away, you know, whatever. Well, all that to say, I also, I had this happen on our first day at Marvin, the restaurant, Marvin Gray restaurant. And it's also a restaurant that doesn't have too many bathrooms.
Starting point is 01:13:03 It was like embarrassing in every way. Yeah. Just a nightmare. Go back to the table, fucking sweaty. Yeah. Fucking sucks. Anyways, all that to say, this taco is pretty spicy. It is spicy.
Starting point is 01:13:17 It's good. It's, it's, it's decent. It's not spicy. Yeah. It's got, but it's got good flavor. It's not, it's not a thing that is, it's, it's, that's what I like. It's not just a dare food. It's like, it's, it's, it's a dish. And I's- No, that's what I like. It's not just a dare food.
Starting point is 01:13:26 It's like, it's a dish. And I think it's, I think if you want something legitimately spicy, try it out, but just be forewarned. They had a daily special, which was a beans and papa's taco potatoes. And I got that and it was one where it's just like, I'm just, it's so simple, but this is so flavorful. And I kind of want to try it just because of the simplicity
Starting point is 01:13:47 of it. I like a potato taco, but this is really well, it's a good version. It's great. I just felt bad thinking about the gussados guys listening to the podcast. This place is so fucking good is the thing. And we talked about, we talked about,
Starting point is 01:13:58 we talked about, if we talked about, it's cheating, we talked about, cheating for 15 days. Like, I will say, and I was worried, I ate almost everything, except for that one thing, the thing you were saying. The spicy, the spicy taco. Yeah, that, and there's like,
Starting point is 01:14:11 in the short talk, the, the, the pasty looking thing. What was the gotta say? Oh, the cheater on it. Yeah, yeah, that didn't finish that, but I, because I had a meeting right after that, and I was a little worried, and I swear to God, like, so I'm here to tell y'all,
Starting point is 01:14:23 if you have stomach issues, this place did not give me any problems. And so many stuff was still spicy. I still put hot sauce on it and stuff. So it wasn't like I didn't experience it. I didn't get the rumblies and I also ate that spice taco, I didn't get the rumblies.
Starting point is 01:14:36 Yeah, I was okay. But I also say this, a place I don't love corn tortillas. I don't usually like more stewed, like more stewed meats. And I love this place. I love every taco that you could try. They're all good. The cheater on it, I think, is that's like, some people don't like cheater on this pork skin.
Starting point is 01:14:57 But I liked everything I got. And we also got a, we got ceviche. We got a ceviche and we got a tamale. We got a tamale, yeah. And that is really good. Yeah, that was fantastic. Yeah, they have like four tamales
Starting point is 01:15:10 and it's just, I asked Rigo which one he liked and he said, I think he said the pork and the cheese one. So we got the cheese one. You know what, it was fucking great. It was simple, but it was well executed. I don't know, I like this is a simple menu. I like that it's straightforward. I like that it's so focused on, you know, the thing that they do. There's a few other things that
Starting point is 01:15:28 are on the menu, but it's like very straightforward and again, very user friendly. But like, yeah, just like, hey, we're just going to do, we're going to do tacos. We're going to do them really, really well. And then the breakfast. I'm not done there breakfast. I never tried the breakfast either. Yeah. And they always serve their breakfast, I think on weekends, till 11. Oh, 11, yeah. I got a, I got a, a, an Armando Palmero, which is two thirds lemon, a one third Hamika,
Starting point is 01:15:53 and that was great. That was delightful. I thought that was the Nick Wigher. Kind of like the Nick Wigher of, of, of, of, of, a South of the border. Yeah, this, this was great. Uh, I, so my order, like I said, fish taco, the choulette in Verdesauce,
Starting point is 01:16:10 and in the quesadilla, and then I'll always do the limon, the, are they, are these aquafrescas? Yeah, they are, yeah. They have a bunch of aquafrescas, yeah. Aquafrescas, but I got, I got melon instead this time. Yeah, that was the one I got instead of the lemon.
Starting point is 01:16:27 I just can't a low water. I can't a low water. I didn't like it as much. It's not as sweet. The lemon is sweet and sour. It's just a little bit more sugary taste like in it is super sour and I love that lemon juice and wags. You had half of it with your am in your, with your amica.
Starting point is 01:16:46 Yes. But that's the drink I would go with. I think it's so good. Except there is one other drink, the Hortchata. Yes, there's an Hortchata cold brew specifically. And you got one of those and I had just a sip of it because cold brew makes me crazy. Cold brew, you know, like that's like,
Starting point is 01:17:03 like for you with spicy foods, I realize that if I have cold brew, I just lose my mind. It's so much caffeine. It's not too bad. It's not, yeah, no, because it's just like a, it's just like a shot in a, in a, yeah, it's more even I think it is just more like it's kind of just coffee level. Right. But I, I had that while I fished out the ice and I finished it this, this morning, or this afternoon on the way to the head gum. I love that. I'll talk a bit about it more in my final review.

I'm going to go first. I'm going to go first. I'm going to go first. I'm not trying to sway anyone.

Starting point is 01:21:00 They also, when it's Dodgers games, their Hortchata is blue for the Dodgers, which is cool as hell. Yeah. Wags, they also did that for Avatar, the way of water. Yeah, I believe so. It was great.
Starting point is 01:21:19 When my mom is in town, she wants to go to, with Gisattos every time. She says it incorrectly every time too when she comes, but she always wants to go to Gisattos. And she says it like Siri because Siri says Gisatt is, she gets it wrong too. But she loves it. It's one of her favorite restaurants. I have strong feelings for it that way. I, for me, it's like, if I had to give people
Starting point is 01:21:48 five recommendations to go to an LA, Gisato's is one of them. Definitely. My mom loves that cold brew and horchata. That's what she always wants to get when she comes here. I just think it's so well done. It's so good at what it does. I love it. I have a fondness well done, it's so good at what it does.
Starting point is 01:22:05 I love it. I have a fondness for it, of course. But Wig's, it's joining an exclusive club. Oh my God, I know it's going. It's joining a very exclusive club. Wow. The six four club. Wow.
Starting point is 01:22:20 Because out of five forks, this gets six. Holy shit. I think that it is becoming an LA institution. I love that it's family-owned. There's truly no nothing I can criticize about the place. It joins Bonchon as the only other member of the six four clubs. I think six clubs. Wow. Wow. I mean, I love it. I love it. Truly, a place My mom, truly a place where like, my mom who will forget restaurants, and like we've been everywhere in LA.
Starting point is 01:22:49 And she likes a few. She likes Moose on Frank. She likes a few places. There's places that she likes, but like, that's the spot. Every person I bring there, they're always like this place, fucking rules. It's great.
Starting point is 01:23:00 No one dislikes that place. If you dislike that place, I think you have no taste buds. Wow, six forks. I think the most fired up event in a while. I love it. It makes you have a good emotional. That's right emotional.
Starting point is 01:23:13 I can't believe I picked that. I take all credit for it. I want to mix it. I say, yeah, so I ain't allowed me to say, put me on a show. We're gonna do Mexican food. That's it. Nothing else. And I'm like, do Mexican food. That's it. Right? Nothing else.
Starting point is 01:23:25 And I'm like, you saw those. That's cool. Wow. I mean, I truly, I, I, I, I, it gets me emotional because I love it. It's, it's so good at what they do. And then the staff is all great. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:37 There's like, it's, it's, it's, it's just one of the, it's one of the best restaurants. And that fish taco, I think is maybe the best taco I've ever had. Maybe not even fish taco. Maybe the best taco I've ever had. I love that. All right, Lamar, your first visit, your thoughts, your forks. I mean, I love that.
Starting point is 01:23:52 I like, like, say, I always wanted to go. I've been hearing about it a lot. I feel like people always talk about it. And I was, to be honest, I was a little nervous because I just been having a bad week, stomach-wise. And I was like, I got to figure out how I'm going to eat this. But I got to say that it was every taco had so much flavor. And they they offered you the sauce on the side too, which they were very, they were, they were cool.
Starting point is 01:24:16 And you know, you know, even though I poured it all over the tacos anyway, I was like, I went it on there. But I also really liked the lady to wait. I really appreciated the way she, uh, the was on the side, I went it on there. And I also really like the lady to wait. I really appreciate it the way she, the woman who broke down the tacos for us and even though, and she did it for Mitch and like, even though I had the same chance, she like did it for me too and like wasn't annoyed by it. I'm really big on like customer service.
Starting point is 01:24:41 I love that shit. So I'm gonna give it like, I'll give it, it's not a five, right? Yeah. I can't give it five just because I want to try more shit. Maybe I'll probably get it for like a four, four, four, four. Or four, it's a very good score. Cause I want, and I fist thank you for letting me do that
Starting point is 01:24:57 fist taco. That was the worst. That was the best fist taco I've ever had. And that, I had them both a Modello to a little beer. I liked it. I like the alcohol there. I think that's something a place that I need, like a place that has alcohol,
Starting point is 01:25:11 but isn't like me going to a bar, and it just feels like I can just get a little drink real quick. I think that this will move up into five forks for you when you continue to go there. It never, to me, it never disappoints it is. Actually, I will probably go back in a few days. Cause I'm like, oh, now I have, I have like, almost I feel this craving because I'm like, oh man,
Starting point is 01:25:30 I feel like I want more of that, especially that chicken one, the tinga. Oh yeah. I was like, I want more of that, but I just didn't have time to really like take all of it in. And also, when you get the full, it is, it is, it's a different experience when you get the regular size one too.
Starting point is 01:25:44 Right. Why is that even mentioned? We experience when you get the regular sized one too. Why, as I didn't even mention, we were gifted cookies at the end of our month. That's right. What? That was great. You were gone. Came back, I came back with a couple of shortbread cookies.
Starting point is 01:25:53 I think that was rego, did that. That was great. Yeah, those dudes ruled, the dough staff ruled. We had a chocolate chip one and like a rainbow sprinkles one. Really tasty and those are baked locally as well. I think this place is awesome. I mean, I love tacos, Mexican food is like, pretty much my favorite food and so, you know,
Starting point is 01:26:10 the place it does it well, like I'm gonna love it. The two things I'll say about this place, one is I feel like if we reviewed this on the road, like if we'd like, like, hey, we're going to, I don't know, we're going to Salt Lake City and there's this great local taco chain and we're going to try it out and we had this, I would be thinking of it from that standpoint, thinking of it like, you know, like this is like a tour destination sort of restaurant we go to that people were talking about, lives
Starting point is 01:26:38 up to those expectations, lives up to that hype, lives up to people saying like, this place is great, you got to check it out. So like when I'm talking about a place that's in LA that I've had a number of times, I try to think of it from that perspective. And I think viewed through that lens, this place is fucking terrific. I think it absolutely delivers
Starting point is 01:26:56 if you're going in with high expectations. The other thing is, and I mentioned this earlier, it's got so many great vegetarian options. And which I really appreciate. In Mexican food, there's already very veggie friendly, but they go out of their way to have, you know. I think there's like seven or eight different veggie tacos on the menu and a couple of vegan options too.
Starting point is 01:27:14 Like you had a feast. I was like, look at that. I was like, he don't even look, like he looks like he's really satisfied. Yeah. Right. Would all of a shit do you have? It's great. And it's not just like, hey, this is an approximation of the meat version
Starting point is 01:27:25 or whatever, this is like a fake version. It's like, no, these are actually like well thought out dishes. Yeah, I love that they think of each, I love how each taco is composed and I don't know, man. It's just great craftsmanship with that's a good, okay word to use about food. It's like really well curated and it's a number. It's a number two, by the way. Yeah, exactly, yeah. It's like a well-accurated. And it's broken down on the board too, by the way.
Starting point is 01:27:45 Yeah, exactly, yeah. Like it's a fish vegetarian, like it does all the time. Yeah, it's broken down my category, so it's pretty, again, pretty user-friendly. I don't know, I love this place. And, you know, the question for me is, does this exceed the five fork threshold and enter the elusive six fork club?
Starting point is 01:28:04 For me, I'm gonna say, does this exceed the five fork threshold and enter the elusive six fork club for me. I'm gonna say gisados you may be in LA but you might now have a man had an area code cuz you get in six four six six forks for the. Yo what am I doing. Jason game. Crazy yeah this place is this place is good. I was so, I think that I- Why it's first six forks score. I think the highest compliment I can play a chain,
Starting point is 01:28:30 pay a chain we review on the show, cause like, you know, Mitch, this is work sometimes. It's like after I, after we went, like I immediately wanted to go back. Cause like I wanna get that shit again. It's fucking great. It's so good. It truly makes me happy.
Starting point is 01:28:41 And I have fond memories of going there with friends and my mom and sister every time they come here. It's like, there's no other restaurant in LA that I can say that is like, every time family comes here we go. And I know that it's easier, it's casual, but like that's one of them. That's the one.
Starting point is 01:28:58 For a chain that's scaled up, that now has eight locations to maintain that level of quality and, you know, like still make everything in house. It's like LA too, like 100%. I, still make everything in house. It's really great to be like, 100%. I feel like I'm in LA, like, 100%. No, it's, it, it, it fucking rocks. All right, hey, that was our review, Gisattos.
Starting point is 01:29:12 It's time for a segment. Like, I get a step away and do this. Like, I forgot to bring it over. Should I do this? Should I do the intro for the segment first and then you'll get it? No, I'm gonna go get it first. I'll be right back.
Starting point is 01:29:22 I gotta be anyway. Okay, we'll be right back. I got to pee anyway. Okay, we'll be right back. Okay. Welcome back. That was a real break, not at a regular break time, we're mixing things up. Ockermann's fucking spin is great. Yeah, sorry.
Starting point is 01:29:35 Holy shit. Sorry to tell you, Holy Jesus. That's how you tell us. I wouldn't put a pass you to that. Fucking hell. Holy Jesus. That's how you tell us. I wouldn't put a pass you to that. And that was a friend's death just over a little while. Yeah, Jesus. That's how you casually announced the start of the pandemic to me in our live show in
Starting point is 01:30:00 Denver. Oh my God. What a weird time. The NBA has suspended season. What? Oh, we're getting ready for our meet and greet after the show. And now, and you know what? Denver fans didn't like the hand sanitizer.
Starting point is 01:30:15 Right. That's good. That's cool. Oh, man. It was a different time. Look, it's time for a segment. I've chosen a cake in Mitch and Lamar must divine a series of clues to guess what it is. The winner takes the cake.
Starting point is 01:30:29 The loser goes home empty stomached. This is cake it off. Big, big, big, big, big, and my belly's gonna ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, ache, yum yum yum. Okay, so. Oh, see. Okay, so here's how this works. We have four clues. They start off more obscure and they get increasingly obvious. And you also have two lifelines. You have Ask Emma, so you can ask Emma for her thoughts. And you also have the frosting reveal.
Starting point is 01:31:24 I will tell you what the frosting is. So you service like pie in this guy, but with cake. Yeah, this is pie in this guy with cake. We've done this before. Yeah. Yeah, pie in this guy colon cake it off. Okay. However you want to think about it, it's a spin-off segment
Starting point is 01:31:37 with a different song. And it's about cake instead of pie. The Gisattos guys have so much bullshit to get through. I hope I hope if I didn't want to end after this four score, then they get cake it off. Look, they've stopped listening a while ago. But if you work for Gassados, if you're not all involved in that,
Starting point is 01:31:54 if you're a soft thank you for your service, and I hope we did your restaurant justice, because it really is great for them. Yeah. All right, so here's how cake it off works. Not now, back to the shit. So, okay, bad. This shit. So, okay, the clues get increasingly obvious.
Starting point is 01:32:10 So they start off the most obscure, most challenging, and then you have two lifelines you can invoke at any time. Lamar, you are a guest. You can go first or second. It's up to you. I'll go first. Okay, you'll go first. The lifeline is like, I get to ask just another clue from them.
Starting point is 01:32:23 Yeah, the lifelines are you can even, you just choose to use a lifeline and you can choose what you wanna ask Emma or if you want me to tell you what the frosting is. Okay, gotcha. And just to talk about this real quick, like to talk about a pie in the sky slash cake it off, holistically, Mitch, you started off, when we first started doing the segment, you started off
Starting point is 01:32:46 with a record of one in seven. You did very poorly versus our guests for a while. However, you have been roaring back and you have beaten your way up to a climbed your way up to an eight and 10 record. So you're on a little bit of a heater. You were six and three in your last nine outings. So there you go. So we'll see if you can get up to 500 and perhaps a winning record.
Starting point is 01:33:07 I'm still with piss of an immigrant. I'm putting in the effort now. Yeah. All right, Lamar, you've gone first. Remember you have two lifelines. All right, first clue. The first known recipe for this cake was published in 1814 by King Louis XVI's former chef.
Starting point is 01:33:24 Okay, so just guess the cake. Yeah, okay. And then guess the cake, yeah, sorry. He did it. We love for me. King Louis, so that's like, like the old days. It was a old cake. Yeah, 1814, King Louis XVI, his former chef.
Starting point is 01:33:42 Is it like a bun cake? No, it's not bun cake. I miss you. You're up and remember two lifelines are available. Okay. Next clue. World War II rationing led to an increase in popularity of this cake's commonly available chief ingredient.
Starting point is 01:34:01 I have the answer. All right. Carrot cake. Chief ingredient. I have the answer. All ready? Carrot cake. Oh my god. Mitch, you have one cake at off. I can't believe it. How the fuck did you do that? What was the question?
Starting point is 01:34:18 Here is your slice of carrot cake. I should look at it. I'm going to gift our guest the cake, because that's all. Wow. Wow. I can't have a bite of it. Yeah, yeah. The clue was World War II rationing led to an increase
Starting point is 01:34:35 in popularity of this cake's commonly available chief ingredient. Did that tip you off? And also, I was just like, carrot cake seems like something that I was old. Like it's from 1800s. Yeah. You were correct, yeah. Next one was going to be about a, this fall favorite
Starting point is 01:34:48 includes cinnamon clothes, ginger and nutmeg, and then the final clue. What's up doc? To enthusiasts, this cake shines like a valuable diamond. I would have got it right there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. Nine and 10. Nine and 10. We've done this 19 times. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Just like a restaurant value feedback, that's up to the feedback.
Starting point is 01:35:14 And today we have an email from Jennifer from Ohio, aka Totoro in the DoeScore. Jennifer writes, here we go, here's the question. If you had to teach a college level class about a subject, other than the one you actually studied or are employed in, what subject do you think you could teach? That's a question. Well, I can't, I mean, yeah.
Starting point is 01:35:38 Yeah, because if it's something that, like, I, like, there's stuff that I, like, yeah, if it's something I've studied, that would be the only thing I'd be at all qualified to teach. So there's basically, this is like a stuff that I, yeah, if it's something I've studied, that would be the only thing I'd be at all qualified to teach. So basically, this is like a- Can't teach anything in entertainment? I guess not.
Starting point is 01:35:51 The nothing, I'm useless. Well, okay, so my answer, my answer, I think, is both everything and nothing. Because I think one of the things I am best at is bullshitting. Like, I'm really good at, like, just sort of talking with confidence about something I don't really know about, and I can just kind of talk fluidly enough
Starting point is 01:36:07 where people are like, okay, this guy, all right, this guy must know what he's saying. So I think I could probably, like, with a modicum of research, it's kind of bullshit my way through teaching a course on anything, but I would not be qualified to do anything. I would not be qualified. I would not be actually giving people
Starting point is 01:36:23 actual useful information. So, I think I could do it stars one, the space, like astronomy. Astronomy? Yeah, I think I could do that. And like, get away. I mean, I feel like I'd see shit. Or we just what I see. Yeah. I mean, I think you're calling it the stars one. It's probably not. I do the stars 101. It stars 101 101. Okay, we don't get it. What do you think? I feel like, I mean, I feel like this is like a good, I should be like a gym teacher.
Starting point is 01:36:54 I mean, I wouldn't be good. I mean, I'm not in shape, but I think it'll be in shape. Hey, you do jump jacks, then I can do that. But this is like a professor, right? You teach college level P. Yeah, sure, I can be a little bit. Yeah, I guess, or like hell for whatever.
Starting point is 01:37:09 Yeah, they must, yeah. It makes me feel like such a fucking, look, maybe I could teach some sort of math class. But I would be like, look, I'd be learning it as I was teaching it. But right, but you are a good at math. I was gonna get a math. You're sneaky good at math.
Starting point is 01:37:24 So I could maybe do something like that. I mean, I couldn't. That's an insult to every math. That's what the challenge about this, because you're saying college level class. So it's like, my dad, my dad taught in college. So he's a chemistry professor. And like that's like, you have to have a fucking PhD or whatever.
Starting point is 01:37:40 Like you have to have a lot of accumulated knowledge, a lot of expertise. I feel like sadly it would be like pop culture class. And I don't even know that. I have no idea what's going on in current pop culture. But maybe like TV, but that's also we work in entertainment. So that feels entertainment. Look, I think that we should go the route.
Starting point is 01:38:02 We should go dirty again. Like quick comes, one-on-one. This is how it happens. You just watch your brain like straight into it. You think of anything. So, I can't do anything. Talk about my team. So, I wanted to be a professor.
Starting point is 01:38:23 Did you really? I wanted to teach religious, I got my real religious professor. Did you really? I really wanted to teach religious, I got my middle school studies. So I was gonna do that, right? No, she's saying you can't do it, or you can't do what you studied. Right, nothing you studied or in part one. I would love to do that.
Starting point is 01:38:34 That's like impossible. If you can do what you studied, I was like a sociology major at one point. And I actually couldn't even do it, because I wouldn't know. Yeah, yeah. But I'm saying like saying that's like, it's like even the things that you study sometimes
Starting point is 01:38:47 is hard to... I guess, yeah, I'd be, because it's been years since I actually studied it stuff, so I don't know if I can go out and just teach it without going back to school. Right, so you need to refresh at least. But can we talk about this? Can we do a little tangent?
Starting point is 01:38:59 Because this was a fascinating discussion when we were having lunch. Because you studied theology, study religious studies in college. Yeah when we were having lunch, because you studied a theology, study religious studies in college. Yeah, we were talking about that. And you were like, you're really into religion, not just like, you know, not necessarily like that,
Starting point is 01:39:13 you're like a hyper religious person, but that you're like, like the idea of it, like conceptually in like the history of it. Yeah, I like it like the way people like sports. Right. Like I follow the team, like I follow like different trends or like what religious, like I noticed it like the way people like sports. Like I follow the team, like I follow different trends or like what religious, like I notice it, you know, I notice when a religious
Starting point is 01:39:29 becoming more popular, I like looking at the numbers, it's like really cool. And I just like, I call it, they call it like, in Wicken, they have this word where they say, you have like an enchanted worldview. That's how I feel, like I feel like I'm walking through the world enchanted. I'm just like, I'll believe anything.
Starting point is 01:39:47 Anything you tell me, I'll believe it. But it's like, I don't know. I think there's a lot of people going to study religion. And I didn't, this has happened to me. I did lose faith completely. And I was like, oh, all this shit is bullshit. But then after I finished it,
Starting point is 01:40:00 then I got re-interested in it. Right. And it's a little easier to become fully atheist out of that, but whether you just know too much or something. But now I'm like, I'm just into it. Oh, what's this religion? I went to one, I'm with the LA. I was doing all types of shit, doing some chanting.
Starting point is 01:40:16 Like we went to this chanting room one time, and we just chanting the whole time. It was awesome. I want to be able to do the response that well in that room. That is. Yeah. Yeah, call this by, you be fucking out. I want to be able to do the response that well in that room. So. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:40:25 Call us by you. Fuck it up. When I say fair, you say contract. I was like, why are you talking about this in here? It's crazy. You know what? I was about to say you should listen to a couple old episodes of Doe Boys, but in reality, I don't mean that and you shouldn't.
Starting point is 01:40:41 And it would suck. But we did a religious month. We did do. Yeah, we dober blessed. Yeah, did a religious month. We did do, yeah, we did. We do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do, we do Let me do it with y'all. Yeah, I like the shot. I like the go anywhere. And the thing that we didn't say in the episode title, and now maybe have we ever talked about an anime, and that was a probably, we went to a Scientology branch. Yes, we did, yeah, we have talked about that. Yeah, that was wild.
Starting point is 01:41:15 Have you, like, okay, so here's the thing that you run into, and like, basically every religion has some sort of like food restrictions. There's some, like, you know, some to have like an alcohol ban, and there's have like, you know, like a pork ban or a shellfish ban or whatever. Right, right. Are there any commonalities there?
Starting point is 01:41:30 Is that like a thing like, is that, have you noticed anything that applies like across a bunch of different religions? Is it tied to the region of the religion or anything? Is there anything you found? Absolutely, there's like a whole study on it. I don't want to miss, say, it's an a crescent. I think I just don't remember too well. But there's a whole study on it. I don't wanna miss, say, in a correct, I think I just don't remember too well,
Starting point is 01:41:46 but there's a really good book. I see if I can find it about Leviticus and about all the restrictions of food and stuff and how we sort of categorize certain animals and stuff like that. One example is locomotion. The idea of an animal, we're strange locomotion is just like,
Starting point is 01:42:07 we won't eat it like a snake for example. Right. Or like a bug. But like these become like ingrained in religion and they're like, you know, they become have some religious significance, but it's actually just like our human nature can't like understand like what it is.
Starting point is 01:42:21 So we just don't eat it. But like there's a bunch of, the pork is obviously a big one that's just used to go translate over a lot of religions. But I think that, yesterday when I know for sure, it's like a big, it seems to be everywhere, the pork one. But I don't know, I don't wanna get too late because I don't wanna offend anybody
Starting point is 01:42:40 if I said a wrong thing. But there is definitely some real shit there. There's definitely something going on there. Like there's something with, there's this thing about eating and religion that's like even barbecue. I took a class on barbecue, like the religious significance on it
Starting point is 01:42:54 because that was on Sunday, you know, in a South and South, and such like there's something like the ritual nature of it, it's like there's some level of worship but there's like the sacrifice of like the meat and stuff. Anyway, we didn't get it I'll talk about it all I'm gonna do my own podcast. Yeah, we're gonna do Yeah, I've ever eaten snake I've eaten snake before
Starting point is 01:43:15 I think I have I could eat and snake but I can't remember specifically alligator yeah, I've had About snake to I've had snake yeah I'm a gator, yeah. I'm a gator. I'm a snag too. I've had snag. Yeah, we'll kind of snag. I get mad at me because I'm like,
Starting point is 01:43:26 give a mix of what I'm talking about. He suck his own day. Oh, yeah. I was all sincere. Yeah. I thought I was going to talk about snake for a second. I got to get the gassados people to stop listening. That's what I'm going to do.
Starting point is 01:43:37 Yeah, I can't remember when I had snake. I gator. I think maybe it's snake is a sausage or something. Is that sound right? It's a is a sausage or something. Is that's all right? It's a common way they make it. It seems like an easy one to one, right? It's snake doggy. It's snake doggy.
Starting point is 01:43:52 Yeah. That was a tough, that was, that's a tough question. That's a tough question. I think, okay, if I'm trying to answer this sincerely, um, fuck, it's, it, cause I can't really say, no, I can't really say anything I'm knowledgeable about, because that's all stuff that either studied or I worked in. So it's like, that's fucking tricky. Uh, fuck.
Starting point is 01:44:15 I feel like you're gonna give, I'm being sincere. Uh, you have like a Columbine seminar, if you want to. Jesus. You know a lot about, I do know a lot about Columbine. I could actually lot about Halloween. I could actually talk about that. That's fun. I mean, you could do like a good American tragedy.
Starting point is 01:44:30 Yeah, I could probably, actually honestly, I could not that I'm a super true crime guy, but specifically like I've read a lot about like mass shootings and like those traumatic events. So I probably could talk about that as a length. I could talk about basketball. Jesus Christ imagine signing up for your class. I would be an interesting class.
Starting point is 01:44:45 I'm gonna see the professor of the first day and go to the master of things. I'm Wigher. I think this really looks like. That would be fun. I mean, not fun, but that would be a really cool class. I would be interesting in class. It was a class, it was a word study and I'm talking.
Starting point is 01:45:00 Yeah. And then I should think of what else it was like. The real answer is that we're useless. The real answer is that we're useless. The real answer is that we're useless. We don't have any other actual skills. I think there was one other thing I felt I could kind of talk about. And it's like embarrassing when my mom asked me
Starting point is 01:45:15 to drill something. I'm like, I don't know how. Like that's the truth. Oh my God, I talked about my dad again. That was like he knew, he was such a good carpenter and could give me still does. He's still like construct like build shit. And like, there's always showing me how to do things when as a kid was like, he knew, he looked like it was such a good carpenter and could give me stillness. He's still like construct like build shit and like, it's always showing me how to do things when as a kid is like, like, I don't play video games.
Starting point is 01:45:30 And then I, I, becoming a doll is like, all those skills would be so useful. If I knew how to like, fucking do absolutely anything. And I'm totally useless in that regard. Well, I'm, I'm like, I'm going to hang this poster for you. I'm like, I don't know how to do it. I'm 40. Yeah. It's pathetic.
Starting point is 01:45:44 No, I have to say, I was at the bar last night and this guy, this guy sitting next to me was giving me such a hard time because I told him I tasked to grab it, my TV stand. I had somebody come and do it for me. And he was like, he's like, what's wrong with you, man? You can't do, you got to do it yourself. That's just, I'm like, I don't even know you.
