According to the USDA, which as of this recording has not been permanently shuttered, Americans consume on average nine pounds of pickles per year. And the biggest pickle purveyor in this brined cucumber crate, country is a century-old Michigan brand founded by a Croatian-American immigrant named Frank

Flasic. While Vlasik the Company was originally built around milk and cheese, Frank's son Joe eventually realized its bread and butter was bread and butter, pickles, that is, along with other varietals. Over time, pickles completely took over Vlasik's corporate identity, and eventually, Joe, along with his son Bob, ditched the dairy entirely its cleaner. And in 1974, looking for brand iconography for the now pickle-exclusive business, the Vlasic Ares settled on a stork, the connection being pregnant women's common craving for the snack. With an identity inspired slash ripped off of groucho marks to a seemingly legally actionable degree, the Vlasic Stork marketing campaigns took the company to new heights, and today the unnamed bird

endures as one of food's most identifiable mascots. In October of this year, a different eponymous food business, a sandwich chain famed for its freaky fast subs, capitalized, an American pickle fandom by resuscitating its pickle-based menu, featuring pickle bun sandoes and pickle chips. Of course, Stork is the kind of animal its founder, Jimmy John, would have gunned down for sport. But hey, considering you can't even watch pro sports these days without enriching asshole billionaires, totalitarian petro states, and predatory gambling services, who cares if you got to toss a big game hunter who's a major GOP donor some coin to eat a sandwich with pickle buns. It's all owned by private equity anyway. This week on Doe Boys, we return

turn to Jimmy Johns for the Picklewitch. Welcome to Do Boys, the podcast about chain restaurants. I'm Tiger Wiger, along with my co-host, ASMRBs. Okay. The Spoon Man Mike Mitchell. All right. I like it. Sorry, Mitch.

Has this been done? Thought of this during the recent Panera 4 episode when everyone started talking about ASMR. Love you boys. Dave Nasty from Quincy. Oh yeah, I know, Dave Nasty. What's up, Dave? Roasted Birdfock.com.

How about that? Rest in peace of the R.B. sign. Gone. Yeah, the Rby sign in Hollywood taken down, unfortunately. First off, the, you know, the husk of the old Hollywood Arbys was standing for a bit with its famous signage, and now the signage is gone, too. I have yet to try the Arby steak nugs. I want to try those out.

I know, but now it's going to be hard to do. The closest location is in Englewood, which, you know, it's not totally out of the way, but it's certainly not as convenient for our purposes as the Hollywood location, which was very clutch. I love that Hollywood Arby's. Yeah, look, we have a great guest today. We do have a great guest today. I'm very excited to talk with them. We also have a new interface.

Yeah, Mitch, we should talk about this new interface. Now, if you're listening to us and saying the doughboys sound a little bit different than normal, they sound a little cleaner, a little bit higher fidelity. It's because we have a new interface. here in the studio, Emma, what's going on with this new interface? It's the exact same interface, but it's the old one from the New York studio. Got it, the New York studio, which was closed permanently. Yes, that's right.

Yeah, the L.A. interface was busted, so they brought us a less busted one. Wow, but it's the exact same model. Exact same thing. But it's new. Yeah. It's new. New to us, yeah. And I think my voice sounds a little bit better on this.

Yeah, I kind of like how I sound with this new interface. Yeah, actually, I think this now it actually picks up my real voice. I kind of think I sound like me here in this new interface. Now, if we only upgrade the cameras, you can see what we really look like as well. The camera upgrade would be great. Can we upgrade the visual interface? All right. It's off to a good start.

It's off to a great star. Oh, it's up to a, yeah, sorry. You did this for a full year. You talked in a fake voice. I did talk in a fake voice for a full year in eighth grade, yeah. Very committed bit. But it wasn't this voice. This is my real voice.

People could say, if anything, they're saying I've been talking to fake voice here on no voice for the basting. Yeah, you did a big voice. My real voice is finally coming through. I don't like it. I don't like that. You don't like my real. I don't like your fake. Well, don't blame me.

Blame the interface. I like fake voice wager better than I like real voice wager. I don't like you. I don't like, I don't like this new thing. Uh, Wags. Yeah. Uh, I don't know. I forgot.

I got, I got something. Yeah. I, Mitch, we've reviewed the Hillstone family of restaurants. Yeah. It's been a while since we've gone to a hillstone. Mm-hmm. I went to. a Hillstone family restaurant today.

I went up to Honor Bar for lunch. In Beverly Hills. In Beverly Hills. He had a little power lunch. How about that? Isn't that exciting? It's very exciting. Yeah, it was, and I had myself the picnic tuna sandwich. Oh, delightful. Ooh, you got double tuna today.

I got double tuna today. We'll talk about it. We'll get into that. But there, but there, it's just, Nick. Pic Nick, my name is Nick. Pick Nick. So Nick pick the picnic.

How about that? I love that. How about that? We don't know who are guest is yet. It hasn't been revealed. I think people who that maybe clicked on the episode you know, like have seen it in there. Maybe maybe if they just started auto playing

from whatever the last thing you were listening, maybe you don't know who the guest is yet, but if you look at the description at all, you know who our guest is. Should I hit should I hit him with a drop so that we can get to our guest? Or do we want to talk about more stuff? Didn't you have something or was it involving our guest? Well, you were washing the knife in the sink

and I said that you and Michael Myers were having the same sort of day because it's the day after, you know, it's the weekend after Halloween, so you're both washing off your knives. Yeah, that was my big thing. This episode's coming out a week later, but as of the recording, this is the week, this is the Monday after Halloween. If you were here for it, it was really good.

And it was a big, we should say it was a big chef's knife, like the kind of thing, the kind of, it would be a murderous implement in some context. Hello, there, children. Chef. Much like chef from South Park. That's the kind of thing he would use when he was in the school cafeteria. Yes, yeah. for his job as a show.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes. Isaac Hayes, RIP. People always, I mean, yes, rest of peace to Isaac Hayes. Yeah. A sad ending on that show for him. By the way, on our last episode, we did, I talked about Casabonita. We did not know that Casabinita went on strike, just so you know. Well, it had not yet gone on strike.

We had not yet gone on strike, and I didn't go when they were on strike, just so everyone knows. Yes, yeah. And, wise, congratulations. Let's just see if we how long we can keep our guests. in this mask. He's going to leave. Congrats to the Dodgers. Congratulations to the Dodgers.

This is episode going to coming out about a week later. But the Dodgers parade was today. Very, very excited. You know, just like a, what a crushing loss for the Toronto Blue Jays. I got to say. I genuinely felt bad for it. In your home, in your home field, I mean, losing game seven and losing that way an extra. It's got to be tough, but I watched the whole game.

That was thrilling. That was some thrilling baseball. I hope Shoah, bet on the Dodgers. How dare you? I hope he did two, but how dare you? Jonsie Billups should have gotten himself a translator. We talked about this. Amelia, you're wearing the Brooklyn Dodgers hat.

You're a convert. You used to be a Yankee fan. I used to be a Yankees fan. I love the Dodgers baby. Oh, my God. You sell up. Welcome aboard the bandwagon. Thank you. I like it.

I'm happy that he. Yankees fan is abandoned. They're, you know, they're bad fans anyway. But they faced the Yankees as recently as last year in the World Series. What were your, you know, like, were you split it all watching that? A little bit. I didn't go to the World Series game, but I went to a different game, Yankees versus Dodgers game earlier this year.

Right. And I was supporting my boys in blue. Wow. Wow. And that game the other day, it was, it was electric. It was the most exciting game I've ever seen. The final game. Yeah, game seven.

It really is like, you know, And I'm not a, I'm a, I'm a sporto, but I'm not a big baseball guy, but I'll check in with the playoffs. And I certainly am always rooting for our boys in blue. Boys in blue. As a, you know, it's police, right? No. The police, yeah. I did see, I was driving over here, and I was behind someone with, uh, in their rear window, they had a, like, a minions plushy.

And then by their license plate, they had a Blue Lives Matter sticker. What's going on with that guy? You should fucking buy that car. Perfect. Rear window is my favorite Hitchcock film. Interesting. I have to, I feel like an obvious. The mystery guest is now coming to light, hint by hint.

Kind of, I feel like kind of an obvious pick, but I do, I do really like Vertigo, but I also really like North by Northwest. Mitch, you got a favorite of Hitchcock? Northwest, the son of, the son of Kanye West. Mm, yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just letting you know. Yeah. I don't think

if the name is inspired by the film I don't think so You still listening? I'm still listening Yeah, I'm still listening We're still listening We're still listening

To what, doughboys Or multiple things You know what I was trying to think of You know the What's the equivalent Like when someone like Has the barrel of a gun in their mouth? What on earth?

The equivalent to that? No, the equivalent to it for a knife You can't hold the knife in your mouth A knife against your own throat, maybe, against your own wrists. But, yeah, you wouldn't put it down your own throat. That would be, I mean, that would be actually terrifying because it would seem insane. It would seem insane. Like, are you doing a sword swallowing thing?

You're going to punch your own throat out with the blade of a knife? We always make a joke about, like, someone just having a barrel of a gun in their mouth. And I was trying to think of the equivalent for a knife, but I don't know why I put thought in the mouth. You can put it to your throat of your wrists, I guess. That's the, that's where it goes. Yeah, I think that would be the move. Oral fixation. You have an oral fixation

That's why you're obsessed With it being in the mouth I don't know why I was thinking I think I saw you washing off the knife And I just started to think about that You would anticipate his next move Yeah how would Wiger off himself With his implement

I was not thinking about that That's not That is not We know he likes the taste of cold steel in his mouth don't hold Don't do that Don't you know I'm not going to

Mitch I'm not going to do that I mean don't put the knife Don't I won't be doing that I'm going to put a knife in my mouth I know you got one You got that The oral fixation too I don't want you to do anything like that

Um Sword swallers are impressive though right They are impressive How do people do that Yeah that is that is very impressive Dude I would love to date a sword swallor Can you imagine? Oh my God

Every guy's fantasy I wonder if I swallowed a sword And I pulled it out with like Would it be embarrassing? Like would a donut come out on it or something? Or like a chicken wing? You know what I'm saying? Yeah, right, yeah, yeah.

Would something embarrassing come up? It would look like a shish kebab. It would just hear a bunch of loose food. Yeah, that wouldn't be fun. No, that would be pretty embarrassing. But that would be quite a party trick. Imagine we did that at the circus. A sword swaller bringing stuff up is that is fun.

Has that been done before? Have we seen the sword swallow her bring stuff up? Maybe that's a new dimension they get at. That is a new, because I do think that sword swallowing has gotten slightly stale. Yeah, it's kind of the one thing. Bust that out in America's got talent. Someone, do a sword swallowing bit while you bring stuff up. Absolutely riveting.

That's Simon Cowell. Imagine if you brought up like three apples and then you whipped them out and you started juggling them? That's fucking good. Pretty cool. Then you swallowed them again? That's, that's fucking good. That's good. It's pretty good.

That's pretty good. I give you an eight, no figgy pudding. That's, uh, that's Sama Cowell being upset that. An eight? What happens on that show? I never watched the show. But he's mad. He's mad that there's no English food on the sword, you see?

Oh, he wanted like some, yeah, yeah, right. Beef Wellington, maybe would want it like some spotted dick on the end of it or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's good. A funny word, too. It's a funny word. Uh, Emma, let's hit him with a, let's hit him with the, uh, with a drop, please. If people not understand the concept of this, it's fucking new content. It's new stuff.

It's a whole thing. It's a fucking pain in the ass. We do. We do. We love that's the fucking work. It's like a fucking some reaction of existing content. Are you fucking fucking a big of that assumption without the fucking that. It's a fucking mess.

But what's a fucking dim shit? Yeah. But what the stupid is your fucking shit? We love you. We love you so much. Thank you. And have a blessed Thanksgiving. I don't know, seasonal.

High Drop King, Nick, Mitch, Emma, Casey, Amelia, Yusong, Jemmy. You want to take that again? There's an extra name in there. Did I fuck up? No, I just, you said Casey, and Casey is. Yeah, unfortunately, not a... High Drop King, Nick, Mitch, Emma, Amelia, Yusong, Jemmy. What?

You said my name different. Because it was sad because I dropped Casey from it. Oh, okay. We miss you, Casey. We miss you, Casey. I had this old song I made that I didn't know what to do with until I heard you two yelling at me. I think I can speak for most Do Boys fans when I say that we like being yelled at. Keep it up.

Wow. Jonathan Bronson gave his whole name, Norwood Mass. Thanks, Jonathan Bronson. Yeah, thank you. That was a cool drop. A cool drop, a really cool drop, really well assembled and also sounded great coming out of that new interface. Yeah, the new interface makes it sound pretty fantastic. I can't wait to hear more drop.

up, it's going to get out the new interface. God. Can you say giggity? Giggity, giggity, giggedy, giggity. I mean, our guess has been in the mass for almost 20 minutes now. It's not almost, you're really rounding up. 17? Can you, I see 12 minutes on the clock.

He had it on for about five minutes before we started. Oh, you're tacking on the pre-show. No, you're saying no. Okay. I also don't know, like, if our guest wanted mask to be uttered or have that be a surprise. Face. He's had his, what do you want to say? Face.

He's had his face on. Our guest has a case of too much Mitch. I told him this when I picked him up today. He's seen a lot of Mitch the last 24 hours. The last 48 hours. Yeah. We've all had a case of too much Mitch for a while. Everyone, you can get, I get it.

It happens. But a good guest. I mean, we won't introduce him just yet. Yeah. why we just I don't know we're just vibe our today's guest

was here for our first record in 2025 how crazy is that now not not the first episode released in calendar year to 2020

but the first time we recorded in 2025 back in January when the fires were blazing across L.A. When the the whole character

of the city was changing and yes one crazy conflagration. A lot of the total tragic event. A lot of people lost their homes. But one brave man stood up to the fire. That's right. The owner of the Americana. What the fuck's his name? Rick Caruso with his fleet of private firefighters protecting his retail properties. God bless him. I got to vote tomorrow. I forgot. I got to vote.

You better have voted by the time this episode comes out. I know. I got to vote tomorrow. Just fill out your, you have your ballot, right? Everyone's vote. You should have You should be able to fill it out and just drop it off. I will rock the boat by tomorrow. Yeah. I promise you that. I'll do that. I trust you, buddy.

Why? My nose burnt really bad. I've had a... What happened? Well, it looks better now, right? Yeah. I don't even want to show how nasty it was, but I was shooting something and they put makeup on my nose.

I had some weird chemical reaction. I had to go to the emergency dermatologist. You had a skin reaction from some makeup for, like, was it some prosthetic thing? Can you talk about what it was at all, or was just some... No. It was just makeup, but I had a weird allergic reaction. I have, I do have, um, rosacea? Yes, I almost like chlamydia.

Whoa. A little different. Both kind of red, right? It's all kind of red. Guest really sold his reaction to that. Visually. Chlamydia. You've been hanging out with koalas?

All right. There was the koalas in Australia that had chlamydia. Is it chlamydia or syphil? I can't remember what disease, what sexually transmitted disease they had. It doesn't matter. It was chlamydia. Was it chlamydia? Which one did you get from them?

Coala chlamia. I didn't get any. I haven't done anything with a koala. Or koalic. I'm going to put it both out there. Coalas and koaleks I don't fuck with in that way. You take a big pill for chlamydia. no big deal anymore. Wait, really?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just take one big pill and you're done? Yes. Wow. There you go. Do you want to know how I know this? I, you know what? I can infer how you know this.

The koalas told you. Uh, yeah, I've taken the pill before. Wow. What do you want for me? We're all sexual beings. Speak for yourself. It was, okay. I had been with someone.

Okay. And they were like, hey, can you come by my house? And I was like, sure. And we had been together for the first time the night before. Okay. And I went and I, in my head, I was like, oh no, I'm so bad at fucking. Yes, right. She's going to like chastise. She's going to like yell at me. She's going to give you some notes. She's going to give me some notes. And I went down there and she was like, so you climbed up the eucalyptus tree. I went down there and I was like, hey, what's up? And we said, down and she was like, you know, that we were together last night. I just want to let you know, the results came back today, have chlamydia, you need to take

this pill. Wow. She had the pill locked and loaded for me. I took the pill and, uh, and, uh, we practiced safe sex as well. So that was a, uh, should I have not have told this story? Mitch, I just, I just can finally say something that I've known all along. Uh, I was involved with this. That was all a ruse.

She gave you a limitless pill. So you can finally reach your potential Well, I don't know If her in a Flowers for Algernon situation Because I think it's going backwards, my man I can't remember shit anymore It seems like the best The most mature way to handle that

It was I thought it was a great thing to do I was so happy that she told me and gave it to me I think that that was a very I think it was a situation that worked out great Exactly And I'm not saying any names then nothing is happening here. It's all good.

Yeah. And now, you know, if you ever get chlamydia again, you know, just one pill. You're set. I just hopefully, listeners don't find out the one person I've ever slept with in my life. You should be okay. But yes, I took a big old chlamydia pill at one point. Wow. It's a big honker.

It's like a horse pill. And then I took her out for a eucalyptus. Leath dinner afterwards. Is that better? Yeah, that's pretty good. Our guest returned to the show. Why did I tell the story? You can cut it out.

You want to cut it out? I don't know. Should I? I have no idea. I didn't think it was bad. I think desigmatizing. De-stigmatizing. STDs is always a good thing.

Yeah. You take a pill. Who gives a shit? Yeah. They're no big deal. I fucked. Deal with it. I've fucked, listeners.

I fucked one time. At least a few times. I'm happy for you, buddy. Thank you. Our guest, returning to the podcast from Fallout and Severance. Zach Cherry is here. Hi, Zach.

Looks like meats back on the menu, boys. So the mask has now come off after that spirited delivery. So that was all in service of this line as an Urukai. Yeah. Got it. So I'm eating meat. it again, and of course the most natural way to approach that is to come on Do Boys and announce it by being in a ad hoc Oricay mask in celebration of one of my favorite film franchises,

the Lord of the Rings. I think everyone knew when they saw this that this was an Oricay mask. Yeah, it looks like a wolf mask with some Shrek ears grafted onto it, but it does very much read as Urukai from Lord of the Rings. Well, I don't know if you know those wives, but that is what Peter Jackson did. Oh, that's what's so, like, interesting. They used force perspective to make this look like what you saw on the camera. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't know if you knew that or not.

No, I never watched like the BTS on the, the DVDs. Well, you know, Elijah Wood is actually a normal guy's height. Yes, right, yeah. And so when you put him next to this, this looks like an or a high mask. Movie magic. It's wild how that works. Yeah. Yeah.

Well, it was, it's a very convincing effect. I won this at a charity auction Wow And also You did successfully have it on for about 20 minutes Yeah Yeah I did just before I said that

I realized I'd been in there long enough That I forgot what I was going to say And I'm not sure that that is the line But you can find it on Looks like Meets Back I think that is looks like Meets Back on the menu Um so Can you do Force perspective Mike

Our video our video editor Can you do a forced perspective, so I'm really big and these guys look small next to me? Yeah. Can you do that? Yeah, that should be easy, right? Yeah, that doesn't require. You know, it's just one slider? I think, I think they installed that into my eye, because to me it looks like, it just looks like that.

So someone was able to do that. I don't know. It's like an in-camp, in-lens. I'm kind of having the same effect. You're right. Yeah, yeah. No, it's weird. A lot of people, a lot of people, when they think of me, they're like,

Do I have forced perspective vision suddenly? And I was like, no, no, you know, a lot of people. I mean, maybe they do. I can't tell. I have no idea. But I am just a big guy. So I don't, you know, I'm not positive. What if it's, you know, you know, what's come first?

And they see your hog is like, I don't know what to believe. Forced perspective. Got me all screwed up. Yeah, it's hard to make it go both ways like that. Yeah. Yeah. You're eating meat again. I'm eating meat again.

I need to hold something small next to my hog next time you guys look at. I'm trying to think of what would be good for a... Get like a golf pencil and say it's a regular-sized pencil. You need something small to hold? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I guess you can't use your hog? Yeah, can you take a dick pick and then hold that up next to your actual hog? Hey, look at that small dick next to his regular-sized dick.

Oh, here's what you do. You get a tic-tac. And you say it's a chlamydia pill. Because it's a big old pill, right? It is a big old pill. So a little tic-tac, you say that's a big old pill. Or wait, does that mean, wait. Yeah, no, yeah.

Yeah, that would work. That would work. A little tic-tac. It was a big blue pill. Wow. Look, I also got chronic athletes' foot. I got a... From the same koala?

No, no, no. I got nothing. I got my nose turned very red. I have rosation on my nose. It's a bummer. I got all the bad Irish. shit. I got rosacea on my nose. My mom is very nervous. She's like, your nose is

gonna, you're gonna have one of those big Irish noses. Oh, sure. She always says to me, because like, I don't know if you've seen stuff with rosacea. They turn into like, your nose can turn to like a big rosacea you nose. Have you seen this before? I have seen this. But isn't it this also come from heavy drinking? Or is that an example? It does come from heavy drinking, which I don't do too much.

No. Is he come, maybe from eating processed foods? I mean, yes. I mean, there is also that issue. I mean, like, I don't drink constantly, but I did drink. I drank with you last night. How fun is that? We had a... Drinking?

We had a good old time. What do you mean? How fun is what? Drinking? Just hanging out with your pal. It was in town. It was good. We did...

Heine zero for me, of course. Yes, you did two heinous zeros. I did two ciders. I got loose. I love that Heineken Zero. Terry Hatcher was next to us. Wow. How exciting.

This was you did Askat at the Bright Citizens Brigade Theater and Terry Hatcher was the Monologist and you did improv off of it. Look, I'll just get into it. She was talking about how she's been single for a really long time. And some people. said that I maybe should have I think you should have I did not shoot my shot

should add a TikTok right a tick taker ready I was catching I'm gonna show my hog when I shoot my shot I have to show off my hog to her no I'm not gonna do anything like that just to prepare

just to prepare yeah to say like just so you know what you're getting into I didn't have any tic tic tacks right I did she was she was very funny and nice Yeah, she was great.

She's a pro. Yeah. Yeah. She did a great job. Wow. Super funny. Talking about, yeah, she was talking about being single and not, you know, not a. Mitch said, I can relate.

Yes, yes. And she said, and not about not, also not getting it on. Yeah, sure. You know, also can relate. Signed me up twice. What was the impetus for reintegrating meat into your diet? Um, it was primarily protein focused. And I was traveling a little more.

It's very easy to get plant-based protein when you're, like, at your home. Sure. Like in New York City or in L.A. I was kind of in smaller towns, and, you know, I was, like, wanting to have protein. And so I ate a chicken. I ate chicken, and it was good. Wow. And you know, actually, if you recall, part of my wife's lore,

that when you ate chicken for the first time after a year, you said, you were like, oh, my God, this is so fucking good. And she said, shut the fuck up, like her. Yeah. because her meds were not dialed in. When I ate chicken for the first time after five years, my thoughts were, this is okay.

Wow. Yeah. What kind of chicken did you? I can see that. I mean, five years off seems like it would be very like, would it be gamey or was it like a... No, it tasted exactly like I remembered.

I had, um, uh, suvloc, suvlaki. Oh, yeah. Just like a pretty simple, yeah,

reintegration into the meat world. That's good. And so have you been eating like poultry, red meat, fish. Like, what have you, what proteins have you had? For about a week, I was like, I'll have this every other day, and only chicken. And then after about two weeks, I said, safety's off. Let's have some brisket.

So now I'm just eating everything. How was that brisket hitting? Brisket, I love. Hot dogs really were the thing I missed the most. Yeah. When I had a hot dog again for the first time, I was like, this is really hidden. I went to Costco because I got the executive membership so you can get an hour early. So I went there.

I was still a fucking zoo. Why did I think this was going to be any better? It was still like insane. I like that every business now, if you pay a little more money, you get to like treat it as a normal human. You have to pay to just like get in the store. That's like front of the line passes at like Halloween Horror Nights, which is just ended. It's everything. Yeah.

Everything is an upgrade for what used to be a default level of service. Anyway, I got in there, and Costco's been doing this for a long time, and, and I got in there early, and so I was there, I was shopping there like 9 a.m. And then I got, like, I was done shopping at like 10. And the food court is open. I had a fucking 10 a.m. hot dog. I support that. It was hitting. I support that. And sometimes they have an a hot dog. Yeah. Well, because they got those, I mean, I was up early anyway. And I already gotten a run in, but they had like a, they had the, they have the, the onions, which they used to have the, the chopped onions. at a dispenser, and then post-COVID, they've gotten rid of that, but they have them behind the counter if you ask sometimes. And so they did have a little cup of onions that I added. So it's some yellow mustard, some relish, some onions. It was great.

What was your first hot dog? Do you remember? Yellow mustard at 10 a.m. I don't support. Wow. Hot dog at 10 a.m. perfectly normal to me. The yellow mustard's throwing you off. Makes it feel not morning to me. Interesting.

How would you dress it? I get what you're saying. I would go ketchup. Just ketchup. Just ketchup. In the morning? ketchup is more of, I will say ketchup is more of a morning content

Yeah, I mean I'll have ketchup with like Hash browns or eggs, yeah sure I think that's reasonable I just I don't think of mustard as anchored to any particular time of day It's an afternoon food for me It is picnic You don't picnic at 9 a.m.

Deas we go do it What time is can you have mustard? Um I think any time because if you have corned beef and cabbage you could have mustard with that Okay What?

Do you have for breakfast? What the fuck are you talking about? I think I would probably Because I'll put mustard on an egg sandwich Or ketchup on an egg sandwich Or on eggs sometimes But I don't think I put mustard on it So I feel like I'd have ketchup

Earlier in the day than I would mustard Wow Ketchup is more of the morning condiment I think Ketchup does not go with eggs Oh god damn it I understand that take I felt that way But on a sandwich it can

Or no I've scrambled eggs with ketchup forever I also put ketchup on home fries So you get potatoes, breakfast potatoes. Yeah, breakfast potatoes. That's a good. Tabasco only. I also do love.

But if you had like a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich, you're just eating that thing dry? Hot sauce. Oh, hot sauce. Okay. I'm going to end this. This is nonsense. Why are we all looking to Amelia for this? This is insane.

I'm just inquiring. She's not right. Yes, she's very wrong. On a breakfast table, there is hot sauce and there is ketchup and maple syrup. Those are the condiments of breakfast. I don't go to Amelia for correct opinions. I'm doing an anthropological. I just want to collect data to see what she's up to.

We don't need to hear what she's up to. It's insane. I'm triangulating, and eventually I'm going to crack this. I'm going to figure out what's going on. I think salsa also has a place. Okay, sauce is a more an economy, but on the table, what do you got? I would put salsa on a breakfast hot dog before I would put mustard on a breakfast hot dog. That sounds pretty good, honestly.

I wouldn't eat, my thing, you would just, we scheduled a lunch and you said 11.30, Can we do noon? I like to eat noon onwards I like to eat lunch. I know that, I mean, I also had something going on. Yeah. Still, noon onwards. You always try to get in before noon. I don't know.

Well, I'm trying to give us a little bit extra buffer, first of all. But also, like, I don't know. I'll eat lunch at like 11 a.m. That's not crazy. No, and you get to a place at 11.30. You're not going to eat till noon. That's part of my calculation. All right.

All right. And Mitch is, you know. I'm going to be late. Got to be late. Got to decide what he. wants. Yeah. I've got to ask the server what a few

the words mean. Yeah, we got a place where we're supposed to meet their 1130. These is meal made of oats? Huh? I know what oatmeal is.

I will talk to the server a lot. Yeah. But a little buffer is good. Yeah. Yeah, you get a little buffer. Why not? I like that. That's what I'm saying.

That's why like 11. I mean, I know we're not going to be eating at 1130, but meeting at 1130 seems reasonable. a little buff just a little buffer 1140 1140 okay we can do 1140 give me a little buffer

let's get ready to oh like Michael buffer yeah that's that's copyrighted oh right we can't say it we can't say it we can't say it I said let's get ready can you do that

let's get ready can you can you do that actually that kind of just sounds like my new interface force he doesn't have copyright on let's get ready let's get ready I think you can say that you're in the clear, but who knows, it might be actionable.

Are we going to get DCMA'd? Might be. It might be like playing a 10-second preview clip, you know? Oh, okay, yes, yeah. And you weren't doing a great job of it, so it's not going to trigger anything. I don't think I've told this story before on the podcast. This is a very short story, but this is like my favorite story ever heard in Vegas. A cab driver was giving me a ride from the...

He was sucking me off. A cab driver was sucking me off, and then he was like, I actually live, I have a tail to tell you. And I got a tail to show you. He was going to suck him off. I was going to suck him off. No, a cab driver was giving me a ride from the airport to my hotel. He's, like, I, like, I just sort of asked him like, like, oh, you're giving any, you ever give any celebrities a ride?

And he said, like, oh, I had Michael Buffer in here once. I was like, oh, what was that? What was he like? And he was like, I was driving Michael Buffer, his cab driver's telling me this. all right so far I was driving Michael Buffer and he goes check her out

and I look over and it's a woman in a bikini who shit her pants I have heard that from you before that's good yeah pretty good that rules

yeah I hope she's having a wonderful day today ma'am we here at doughboys salute you know saying head was fun head getting a head

yeah getting head it's been gone for a while bring it back we've been saying getting just getting sucked off or whatever but yeah getting head is fun giving head is fun dome is pretty fun top I like top a lot yeah brain brain

brain's too much getting brain getting brain somebody clip him saying I like top a lot that'll be good for a dropper dropper too. Getting brain just makes me feel like it, you know, it's getting up there, you know what I'm saying? Right.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. To you, hold on. To you, that means it's like deep throating? I mean, yeah, it means like... It's like poking... It's gone the wrong tube. It's going, it's going up. It's gone the wrong tube. Is there a tube that goes up? There shouldn't be.

Is there a tube that goes up? Is there a tube that goes up? Is there a tube that... I mean, I guess your sinuses, yeah, I guess. So I'm saying, like, that's what when you think getting brain, I mean, it makes me feel like it's getting up there. Well, that's not what I was picturing, but yeah, that's, I understand. That's what you're...

I'm just saying, that's the picture of... I didn't coin the term. I was just using it. All right. Well, I like it, too. We should start dating a sword swallower. Yeah, they could get it up there. It's easiest job I've ever had.

We reviewed... Cocktail sword swaller. Back in the start of the year, back at the start of 2025, we reviewed Big Mamas and Big Pappas. We went. We went to Big Mamas and Big Pappas. That's right. You were here. And we went in person.

We got the big slice. And at the time you weren't eating meat. I was not. You've come around and have you had meat on your pizza? Are you having meat-based pizza topics? I have. What have you have? I've done it all. I've done pepperoni. I've done

some fennel sausage. I've done I haven't done, I haven't dove back into clam pizza yet. Yeah. But I have had clams separate of pizza. Fun? Yeah. You took me at a great slice shop right near Madison Square Garden. Yep. At that time

I was probably not eating. You were not, no. I also got to say, still cheese slice my favorite slice of pizza, you know this. Love a cheese slice, yeah, of course. Yeah. But you had a, so hold on, so like you've had clams. Had clams.

Separately. I had some chapolinas recently. Oh, fun. I'm all, I'm back in. Wow. As I said, hold on, sorry, let me find this. As I said earlier. Yeah.

Looks like meat's back on the menu, boys. You shook off one of the Shrek ears. So, yeah, I'm back in. Wow. It's exciting. It's honestly exciting. It just doesn't work. for me when one of the Shrekirus falls off.

Yeah. Cut that. I think it's an elf. It's an elfier. Is that what it is? I think it's an elf, elven in nature. But what kind of elf is green? All of them. All elves are green. My experience their...

I figure for the Lord of the Rings reference is not to be elfish. What are you talking about? None of them are green. Elves are not green? Are you thinking of the grinch? Christmas elves. Maybe some Christmas elms and some interpretations. I don't know.

Not even. Elves. What does she mean? Well, Shrex's ears are like round and like They're like tube. They're like tube. They're not ears. You better not Google Our Christmas Elves green. The shape, the argument The shape is not Shrek-like. You are correct.

It is, it is they, it is shaped like a like an elf or a Vulcan. The green coloration makes me think that is a What do you show? What do you? Did you know? And half of those pictures are lepracom. It's like fan art.

That was mostly lepracombs. Wise, I got an emergency thing here. Yes. Tony, my friend Tony. That's right. Is asking any dinner wrecks in Culver City. We've got to help them out real quick. Okay, I love this.

Mitch, you are my go-to rec guy. I do a pretty good job. Oh, in fact, I just want to say one of the first big meat meals I had, when I started eating meat, my wife and I were in L.A., and we asked Mitch for a wreck, and he recommended cheese baka. Oh, yeah. And it was so good. It was one of the, we had the bone marrow pie.

So again, safety's off. I'm going to come down and straight in. And it was one of the best things I've ever tasted. It was, like, unbelievable. I'll recommend, because I don't know what Tony is looking for. I was nervous. I was very nervous because Amelia, we talked about this because I hadn't been in a while, but it is still good. Yes.

Amelia had recommended another place that I will get to eventually. Yeah. I recommended girl on the goat. Yes, girl on the goat is good. There was one in Chicago. But, like, sorry, I cut you off. I was going to give one wreck. I assume this is like, like, I want to have just like a nice dinner.

I would just go to Laurel Grill. It's like, I'm in downtown main street, Culver City. It's a place where you can sit down and enjoy yourself. And they get a... Laurel Grill is great. Yeah, I would just, that would be my, that would be my pick. But if they're looking for other types of food, you know, there's certainly other options. I know nothing about L.A. geography.

I have a vague memory of when I ate meat long ago is, is honey kettle chicken? Honey kettle chicken's Honey's kettle is there Is that near Culver's sugar? Yeah, Honey's kettle is there It's a little bit more casual There's, but that's got great fried chicken Yeah

There's also a carousal is like a A pasta play An Italian place by there Sicilian place And then there's also You know if you're looking for like Tito's tacos There's Tos I just know what they're looking for

Titos tacos is an option You could also toss them In that same area Johnny's pastrami But I would say like Mayura is an Indian place A great Indian restaurant And I would also say, you know, I'm not sure if it's open for, I think it's open for dinner,

but Uzumaki is a sushi, it has sushi option. And this is Dr. Fauci? It's a lot of great sushi over there. This is Dr. Tony Fauci. Yeah, sorry, I call him Tony. That's just what I'm thinking off the dome. There's other options. We, he like, it's cool that you two can still be friends despite your differing views.

I'd toss, I'd steer him towards Laurel Grill. I think that'll get, that'll get the job done for whatever. What kind of food is that? American? Just like new American food. It's a lot like a Hillstone restaurant. Right down the middle. They got a solid burger, all that sort of shit.

What's that Italian place that reopened? You know what I'm talking about? We try to go there for dinner one time. Are you talking about Deer Johns? Deer Johns. Yes, yeah. That's Culver, right? It's like a steakhouse.

Yeah, it's like a chop house. Yeah, that place is in Culver. It's another option. I mean, it depends on me if you want to overwhelm them with options or give them one targeted one. It just depends on what they're looking for. Well, Tony, I hope you and that lady who shit herself are having a wonderful day. wherever you both may be. By the time this comes out, maybe you'll have met.

I'm sure I'll have forgotten some place. The very talented Tony Mocked who was in, oh, yeah, O'Mary. Yeah, how about that? Who you saw her in O'Mary? Yeah, he's great. Wow, Mary's so funny. Wow. Great guy.

I like the theater. But we got a great guy here. Sorry, I just want to say, I like the theater. Yeah. I didn't want you to like to step on that. To move past that. I like the theater too. I'm people.

based on who I associate with might accuse me of not being a cultured man. I know you're a cultured man. I like the theater. Because of your association with a dough boys? Or whoever else.

I love the theater. Linti-dun-dun-d-d-d-d-d-d-d- That's right. That's right. Welcome to my opera. Mitch, you're part of the classic line from Phantom of the Opera. You're part of the fandom

did nothing wrong, camp, right? Fandom is just trying to entertain people That's right Amelia covered her face after I said Welcome to the opera You also We should say for her audio listeners You covered half your face

And like the mask I thought I put on a pretty good show there It was pretty good But you like the theater I like the theater Would you ever do like a play Have you done? You didn't really

I showed how Okay let's see Romeo Romeo Where for art thou, Romeo? I like the theater, of course. Would I do theater? Yeah, sure.

If it was the right check. Wow, okay. I like money, too. Yeah, sure. I told you this before. Amelia once said you were her favorite improviser in front of me. And then I was like, what about me? And she still didn't back down.

I agree you are you're a fantastic improviser and I like you better than me as So are you Mitch no I'm not as you're very very good we've done a couple shows together while I've been out here Mitch is a wonderful improviser Yeah, we did a great time on stage Mitch is a monster of proff He's he's he's the he did a scene holding a box full of vaginas that is that is that is that is true How can you read that the audience was a little nervous where I was going to go with it You're like can I take this home I'm imagining it to be real He was really depressed after the show

When he realized it wasn't real Oh boy That's tough You were like sitting in the corner I was so close I almost had him I've been trying to I've been trying to

To manifest some stuff from improv But I'm going to say this You're a master of the stage And also I want to say that You're a master performer as we saw earlier and you said earlier before we got you this wolf mask you said a Shrek mask would work as well

yeah well I mean I want it I'll unfortunately admit I've been planning this for a while I'm planning this for a while I want it my dream was to come on here with a perfect Uruk high mask and do my little bit but then I I sort of ended up coming out here last minute I didn't know I was going to be out here so I didn't have time to get the mask

Amelia helped me out with a 99% perfect Urichai mask but that was the plan but yeah Shrek mask would have got it done I would have made whatever work

Amelia did keep kind of trying to pitch that she wanted to paint my face she really wanted to paint your face green face paint

she said that five to seven times because she was the mask for Halloween oh that's fun how recently a few days ago a few days ago

wow how'd that go amazing what did that sound like she was smoking oh there we go Emma, did you dress up for Halloween? No, I didn't really do it. I've never been to costumes for Halloween person.

I tend to, like, stay home and just be chill and watch movies on Halloween. Yeah, that's me too. I'm not like a... Yeah, same. I haven't done an adult Halloween costume. Maybe we'll try it sometimes. Especially when Halloween falls on an actual Friday, too crazy. It gets too crazy.

That is crazy. I don't go out all that often. And so, like, I, like, when I do and it's like a Halloween like that, it's so crazy and overwhelming. I'm like, get me home. If it's on a Tuesday, I might go to a party or something, but not on a Friday. Yeah. I kind of, it is kind of fun to see the freaks coming out at night on Halloween night. I did go for a walk around Echo Park on Friday night, and it was, there was some great costumes just, like, walking around, some good people watching.

I'm going to say this, I drove you by Echo Park Lake, and your response was, this is it? It is small. It's kind of an underwhelming lake. It's a little. I mean, well, in the reservoir. I've heard you talk so much about walking around the lake. the reservoir. It was the reservoir. The Silver Lake Reservoir. Yeah. The Silver Lake Reservoir. You come for a walk with me and Gemmy at Echo Park Lake. It's beautiful. I'm down. I'm down any time.

They both. Don't bring me to the reservoir. Is Echo Park Lake actually is probably nicer, I guess, I would say. Well, it's a lake that they like maintain the vegetation and stuff in it. So it's very curated and clean and it's very pretty. There's turtles. And there's turtles and all the swan boats and stuff. Whereas the reservoir is a reservoir. So there's not much in the water, right? It's just water. At Echo Park Lake, can you get close enough to piss in it? Yeah. Yeah, I think there was a lot of pissing it. Actually, I saw a family fishing there like last weekend, and we were walking, just walking, I saw them fishing with this little girl.

She was so excited, and they pulled something out of the water. I was like, oh, cool, they caught something. It was somebody's boxers. Oh, man. And they were laughing at it. They were hysterical, and I was like, that is some city shit right there. I have a feeling they weren't clean. No, that's my guess, too.

I thought you were going to say they somehow fished piss out of the lake. I was trying to figure out how that would have worked. How would that work? Yeah, how would that work? Mitch, we could solve this problem. I did say you were going commando the other day. Those were not my boxers in the lake. I've never pissed in that lake.

I've never been in that lake. I don't think you can go in it technically, but you can get close enough to pit. You could do it off the swan boats. Yeah, for sure. Yeah, you can get on a swan boat and take a piss off of them if you want to do that. At the reservoir, I was disappointed that there was a big fence. Yeah, you can't get some water.

Not that I'm going to piss in it. Yeah. But you want to know it's an option. You want to know it's an option. Well, it is. I think they do use it. They use that water, right? Yes, yeah.

No, you don't, I mean, you wouldn't want people pissing in that. No. Although you think about it, they're probably all sorts of wild. Yeah, the filters will take care of that. They will, yeah. Though I think three people from this podcast have drank piss we've realized the other day. Oh, I think just two. I think just Nick and Amelia.

Oh, just Nick and Amelia. Yeah. Yeah, just me and you. On purpose, by accident, what happened? Your own, someone else is. Did I tell the story on the. main feed, I can't remember. You did. No, it was a double. Oh, it was a double. Okay. So beyond

I'll tell this story outside the paywall now. So I had a so, yeah, this was, I was in high school and we're getting drunk at my house. My parents were away. Sorry, Mom and Dad. And I got absolutely fucking ground your ass. Is this the first time you're hearing about that?

Maybe, I don't know. I'm sure they pieced it together. You can call them right after and say, guess what I just did? Got absolutely shit-faced and I was like fucking hammered. and we were drinking beer and my buddy my buddy Alfredo

filled a mug I think I know why you became friends with him filled a mug with piss and like tricked me into thinking it was a beer and I drank the whole thing

I like chugged it hold on okay all right I chugged it and was so drunk I didn't taste that it was piss and then I and then I was

and then he told me afterwards and I tried to fight him and they just fell down. So you, a man named Alfredo tricked you in a drinking piss and you're the one who hates Italian? What the hell? Weiger would have every right to.

I agree. You get it now? He was not Italian, but yes. Oh. He wasn't? No. I guess Alfredo it could be a lot of things.

It could be a lot of things. What was his last name? Parmesan. It's just his first name only, but it's pretty just a distinct first name. No, it was a fake name. All right. Did you, I have a question for you. Yeah.

Did you piss beer later? Yeah, it's crazy how that works. Just tilted right towards my mouth. So hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. Because he drank piss, he would piss beer. It processes it back into beer. That's cool. And if you piss in your own mouth, you just get to drink ice cold beer.

You just did that immediately. Yeah. Oh, yeah, no, cool. That's what I heard. It also turns out of warm to cold. Let's the other thing it does. And have you told the story of how you... I'll keep it behind the paywall.

Okay. Okay. Wow, very cool. The pee wall. Don't say I didn't try. When I come here, I have two goals to say the thing about eating meat and to release stories from behind the pay wall. I would just say, if you're specifically, subscribing to the

Patreon to hear Amelia's piss drinking story we don't need your $5 sure yeah we do yeah we do

honestly we do we do please please subscribe okay so we obviously that's the type of stuff you're missing on the doughboys double that's right

it's crazy in there I'm gonna tell a story about my own piss in there wow I haven't drank it yet but by the time the release of the episode You know, I'll do a shot of piss, too.

Why not? Well, I'll drink some piss behind the baywall. We obviously had our live show in Newark where we raved about pliables. You've still been consuming a lot of pliables. You know what? I'm glad you brought this up. Yes. Because at that show, you went in a little skeptical.

I did, absolutely. We had a wonderful experience. Loved pliables. It was a platinum plate club. Yes. a restaurant I'm here to say Ply Bowls

you're on notice Wow they've fallen off a little bit sometimes one time I ordered it they didn't even drizzle they gave me a cup

and I had to drizzle myself Oh that's rough That's tough And then I did a little research I'm not only an actor I'm an investigative journal Sure I went in their website

Because one of the reasons I like pie bowl is I like how much I like the idea of eating some fiber I'm getting some fruit Yeah of course their assaye base has zero grams of fiber. Interesting.

I reached out to the Blybill Corporation via their online question asking submission form. And I said, how does this have no fiber if it's made of blended fruit? No response. Wow. Do there other bases have any? We need some answers. Some of them do. We need some answers.

Just saying. I wonder if assayi is like a weird like outlet because it's like such a bizarre fruit. Like it can't even be transported. They have to freeze it. Oh, I didn't even know that. So I wonder if it has some strange quality where it's not particularly fibrous or something. But zero grams? Zero grams seems a little suspect.

At least give me like less than half a gram. You know, sometimes they do a little less than half a gram? Yes, yeah. Zero. Toss me a bomb. I will say, I went to the Penn Station pliable before leaving New York City on my way, the choochoo out, and I was a real highlight. It's still good. It is still good.

Check out the tea. But it's on notice. Mitch is wearing a Katz's Deliccettessen T-shirt. I got this in the big city. How about that? You guys love New York now. I do. I always have a great time when I'm in New York City.

I always wish I had a reason to have lived there. What was the pizza place we went to there? What was it called? New York Pizza Suprema. Yeah, great spot. That place famously, because they put it in their restaurant, this guy, I think, tried a slice of cheese pizza from every pizza place in Manhattan, and that was his favorite slice.

Wow. Yeah. That's why I always recommend that one. You're eating meat again. Yeah. Have you been to a restaurant we went to when we were there? Mitch and I went to when we were there, a hamburger America.

I have not. Wow, okay. Really good. Good a great time in hamburger America. Emma, you enjoyed hamburger America. I loved, I've literally thought about it like every day since we've been here.

It's so good. Delightful Burgs. Yeah. The second I get back. Yeah. Yeah, why not? I had a burger out here recently at a place called Burgers Never Say Die.

Oh, yes. Smash burger. Yeah. Pretty good. Owned by Quincy Man. Pretty good. But I do think, and I think the smash burger is just a marketing trick to get to give you less meat.

I'm usually not the biggest smash burger advocate. And it's definitely like kind of that approach at Hamburger America. Oh, it's a smash style? I mean, it's like, yeah, it's not like it's, it's a thinner patty. I don't know if it's actually a smash burger, but you get a couple of David Sims advised us to get two. And that was the right call. Two patties or two burgers? Two burgers.

Yeah. Because it's not particularly substantial, but it's real, real yummy. Yeah, I mean, they are tasty, but, but yeah, they're not as, you're not getting as much meat. Burgers never say die really smashes them. I looked through the window and, you know who was, never mind. Who was in there? Wait, no, bitch, who was in there? Hulk was working the grill.

Yeah. Hulk because he's Hulk likes to smash. Yeah. You know, when I was there, when I was there, I looked through the window and, um. Thank you. You didn't laugh at anything else I've said today and then you laughed at the biggest bomb? Well, you know, speaking of bombs, when I was there, I looked through the window. Yeah.

And gronk was working. Oh, so Gronk was kind of smash. Yeah. That makes, yeah, that makes a lot of sense. I was, this is weird, because my experience, and I was over there at burgers never say die, you know, I'll get myself a smash burger, not my favorite. But, you know, whatever. They do it good. They do it well here.

And I get a look into the kitchen. You want to know who's in there? Who, wreck it Ralph? Mitch, I wasn't going to say wreck at Ralph. But he was back there. But he was back there. So, yes, Reckett Ralph was back there. There's another guy, though.

But no, I was actually thinking, I was actually thinking that it was Mario from the original Donkey Kong who grabbed one of those hammers out. That's right. Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do what happened when the hammer gave out? He was just like, he's like, shift's over. I, you know, I had the burger the first time. Yeah. And I thought it was pretty good, but I wanted to, like, get another to really make sure I thought about it. And I went up to the window.

And I peaked in the back, and I saw in the back the guy making the burgers was Hephaestus himself. Wow. The Roman god of hammers. Yeah. Or maybe Greek. Like working as famed for. Yeah. That's wild.

John is going to say right off the bat. What a strange staff. It's really weird, but, you know, they do it well there. Uh-huh. It is a well-made burger. And they are really smart. Yeah. It's Hollywood.

I will also, you know, this is a thing. Uh-huh. So I was over at Burger Never's Never Say Die. Yeah, oh, yeah. From the opposite side of town from where you live, I get it. Yeah, but I mean, you know, whatever. For a good burger? For a good burger.

I'm willing to travel. And I'm over here for work all the time. So, you know, I was just, I was here anyway. Anyway, I go to Burgers Never Say Die. I get a look in the kitchen. Who's in there? This is the thing. I thought this guy worked for Domino's, the Noid with his big pizza smasher.

And he's using his big pizza smasher, which he used to ruin pizzas to instead. make smash burgers. That's savvy because it's probably he can use it as a write-off for both. He can, yes, right, yeah. It's a double business right-off. Yeah, I never thought about how the Noid can write off his smashing machine.

Oh, you know, so back there. The Rock from the Smashing Machine. Oh, wow, the Rock from the Mashing Machine. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Doing research for the character.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's kind of crazy because, like, I had a similar experience, and it was, again, that guy who wasn't cooking was given encouragement, but it was the guy from Wild Thornberry saying, Smashing. They got them with Wild Thornberries.

How the fuck do you know Wild Thornberry? I know some things. I forgot about Wild Thornberry. You're too old to watch that stuff, my man. Never too old to watch a child's cartoon. When you're dating someone, it's nice to, you know, learn what they're into. Jesus Christ. Something to consider, man.

I like the phrase being in a pickle. Yeah, that's really good. It comes from baseball. It does? Yeah. I didn't know that. You're in a pickle. When it's like you're running between two different.

that's where the term that's where pickle I'm pretty sure that's the entomology of it seems insane to me the term in a pickle not the term yeah in a pickle

yeah got it got a got to because like if you're caught between two and you're running back and forth it's like yeah you're in a pickle

I was just waving at somebody trying to get him to come to the studio to talk about pickles oh you can bleep that well you know speaking of baseball phrases have you heard

I forget the guy's name and I don't know if you're allowed to Google this on work computers but I is it Merkel's Boner? You want me to Google Merkel's Boner? Google Baseball Play Boner.

There's a famous boner. Yeah, Merkel, M-E-R-K-E-L-E. Okay, so this guy screwed up. Base running mistake by, yeah, notorious. He made a big boner. And that's how Boner became boner. And even, and weirder, and I'm really glad that was the name. Otherwise, this would have been a bizarre Freudian self-owned.

My dad's name is Merkel. Wow. Whoa. Not spelled the same way. Yeah. So imagine if it wasn't his name and I was just like, let's talk about Merkel's boner. So much of our vernacular, is that the word I'm looking for? Yes.

It's from baseball. It's from baseball. It's from baseball. It's from baseball and organized crime. Home run. Yeah. Home run. First base.

First base. Yeah. Saturday base. Third base. Home run. First base. All the way. Which one is getting brain?

Third base. Third base. Is that third base? I thought that was second base. Well, no, second base is... Well,

this isn't fair because second base to me was always... This is complicated because I don't know it was for ladies. But for me, second base was grabbing a boob.

I thought it was like first base. No, first base is making out. First base is like... Oh, man. Second base is like up the shirt and then third base you're like doing stuff.

I thought second base was getting fingered. I thought first base was getting fingering. I thought that first base was fingering. I thought that was like, I thought first base was fingering. Second base was...

It's that hard to get the first base? Are you kidding me? For me, first base is asking if it's okay to take them out. Yes. Second base is asking their father, of course. According to Columbia.edu, first base is kissing. Second base is touching a woman's breast. Third base involves genitalia.

Fourth base is going all the way. So according to Columbia, there is no second base. second base only applies to someone who is touching a woman I feel like second base is like everything but going in the past overclosed stuff or maybe a testicle or maybe a thing though I mean a man gets enjoyment from that too but a lady probably this hand is on my boob I think that that is probably a nice feeling to have Hong Kong here we go yes Hong Kong here we go of course exactly

yeah there's what's second base between two men we need to do more research just maybe just reaching up the shirt Oh, no, Amelia had an idea That she shook her head, no But I think It's like, oh, we're talking to I guess it's just overclosed stuff Is now what I'm thinking

Where my mind is at But it's I feel like you could go underclose, right? I don't know Underclose waist up Yeah, maybe that's it So Yeah But you can grab like an ass

Right I was right The Oxford I think you could grab an ass At second base So ass is second base To me Maybe over the pants ass

I don't know It says third base involves Is where Jedettus come into play I see I clearly had this completely off because I I thought I seriously thought that first base was fingering, second base was oral

third place was vaginal and fourth place and home like a home run was anal. Jesus Christ! I thought it was like... I'm so sad for the girl that you said can want to go to first base to you. She expects a kiss. So for you kissing is like

hitting off the tea. That's like I never used these terms myself. This was never how I like I never applied this to anything. I was never, like, talking with the bros about getting to a certain base. That's just, like, what I assumed it was happening if we were saying it. I don't fucking know.

Well, we have the definitive answer from Columbia. No, it's a, yeah, first base is. Can I ask you what your favorite base is? What my favorite base is? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What's your favorite base? On Wiger's scale or the Columbia. On Columbia scale?

I think staying in the dugout. You know what? I really like saying. second base. I think second base is nice. It can be kind of tender. Yeah, yeah. You're still in the foreplay phase.

I really like first. I think first base is great. Sure, yeah. I like when, when the manager comes out to the mound that has a meeting with the picture. I wonder what that is.

I guess that is kind of like a dad interrupting the date, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But baseball does. Is that, is that you getting called over the next morning for a committee and film?

that's if it had been about if it had been notes about your sexual prowess it would have been a mound meeting but the chlamydia pill is like a stat correction or something yeah i think it's something like it would be like a stat correction it's like something that was rule the homer gets yeah like a replay yeah it's a replay i think maybe a replay we love baseball we love baseball yeah we love baseball America. It's America's national pastime. We love baseball. And yes, it informs a lot of our slang terms here in the U.S. of A. But yes, we love our pickles. I do love saying pickle. You're right. I do love the phrase in a pickle is a lot of fun. Give me a nickel. Tickle your pickle. We don't like that one. You've said that before we've talked about. Yeah, I don't love that one. Yeah, yeah. You have said that to me before. Disgusting one. You know, they say American is apple pie.

but I think you could say is American is sliced pickle. What is your favorite context? Why sliced? Well, I don't know. Like, you know, I mean like a pickle. It's pickle spears. Maybe just American is pickles.

All right. Fine. American is pickle. Yeah. No, that doesn't sound good. Coming off the tongue. American is pickle. You do need a few more syllables.

American is sliced pickle. Dill pickle? Dill pickle. I like American is Dill pickle. Yeah. Would you have a favorite pickle context. I do like an occasional

just spear. I love a bread and butter pickle sure. In the right, on the right like on a burger or whatever. I like relish. I really can do it all

when it comes to pickles. What about one of those big sum bitches that's like a big thing you got to rip really put your mouth around? Like at the gas station you get it in the yeah yeah.

I don't do those. I don't do those. You know what pickles are for hangovers. I never realize how good pickles are hanging. But I will say the classic pickle is not my favorite form of pickle.

Yeah. I like pickled other vegetables. Yes. I like pickled onion. I like a pickled radish. I like pickled onion. We have acknowledged a new guest in our studio. We're here from upstate New York, in town in L.A., Anya kind of Skaya, the Wire Queen.

Hi, Anya. Welcome back, Anya. Welcome back. Can you do this with no microphone? No, you will hear it. Okay. Anya's back behind the dais. I guess sharing a chair with Emma.

It's a very nice of you. Wow. To be honest, this is such an important episode with an important guest. It feels wrong that I'm interrupting in any way. Not at all. We're happy to have you. We're still a part of the headgum family.

We're going to toss most of the stuff we did so far. Yeah, we're going to toss most of this stuff we get too. We're kind of starting now. I got a text for a mama that was like dud, dud, dud, dud, done. Yeah. We were probably going to keep like two or three minutes of it. I thought I was going to eat candy with y'all. Is that later?

That is later. I will let you know when we eat candy. I think I'll be got my house. We jumped the fucking gun? you can have some candy I mean I'm like it's a segment for later

I don't want to it was a segment for a later could start a new tradition of taking a break mid-dobo boys to eat candy I don't think we need to add that to doughboys a candy break during doughboys

it's kind of nice for the guest Anya we could you know we're here and I think like you know we wanted to make sure that people do that you were still in the family and that you were still like like like with the dough boys of course

still love you and we're happy to have you here. And it's great that you're in town and it's great that you're still part of head go. Of course. I'll be back a lot. Yeah. It's really hard to stay away, but I did have to move for my life to be happy.

But you're still working for the company. I think there's been a lot of speculation that like especially amidst all the layoffs and everything of like what your position might be, especially as everyone knows, you're someone who works on the shows, our executive producer here at Doe Boys, but we wanted to let everyone know you're still involved,

you're still part of the extended family. Yeah, and not, I don't read Reddit often. Right. Smart. But I did see one particular threat. Wow. Where people were really, really worried about what was going to happen to headgum just

because I relocated and I just want to assure them that everything's going to be fine. Everything's fine. Nothing to worry about. I did think that it was funny that there was a fly infestation the day after. Yes. I saw that. But nothing I could have done like, you know what I mean? Like it was like two days.

Yeah. To me that was funny. You're also not an exterminator. right i just mean like nothing the effects of me leaving couldn't have been felt like it was very funny that you left and there was a fly infestation immediately yes yeah it might have been a metaphor kind of biblical yeah biblical from the universe yeah yeah i know do you have any take on pickles love one of my favorite foods what's your favorite context for pickles like what context to eat them like yeah yeah honestly as a a russian person it's kind of like

morning noon and night it's like you could have one at breakfast you can have it at lunch you No, when you, when you say pickles, are you picturing a pickled cucumber? You're thinking of other pickled vegetables? I'm thinking pickles, pickled cucumber. Okay, got to, got it. When I was little, I would eat the little ones out of the jar. Yeah, the little mini ones. At the Russian deli.

Yeah, and I would like, I could do a whole. Gurkin. Wow. And I assume you like more of a, you like more of a dill pickle, more of a sour pickle as opposed to a sweet pickle? Yeah, for sure. 100. But I feel like all pickled, there's not really pickled food that I don't like.

Wow. I don't like the ones that just taste like cucumber. They're pickled, but they just kind of taste like cucumber. You want a vinegary pickle. I want more vinegar. What about like pickled pigs feet, that type, that genre of pickled item? I've never had, but it feels like it could be good. Gas station pickled egg?

I like a pickled egg. I do like a pickled egg. I don't like pickled eggs. Oh, I'll fuck with a pickled egg. Sounds like we got a lot to explore. Huh? At the gas station. Not around here, but I think in the south that's a big thing.

Yeah, like a bag. It's like in a bag. Having a pickled egg or pickled pig's foot at the, at the register. Yeah. I did not even know. Wow. Where at the south? We're going to get letters about this.

It's probably not a thing. Wait, Zach, where did you grow up? Dear Doe Boys, I'm from the South and you got it all along. I grew up in the South. Okay, great. In New Jersey. In the south of New Jersey.

Yeah, well, Central Jersey. Is Stewart's a thing in Jersey? Or is that just in New York? Stewart's like. Stewart shops. Oh, kind of. But I was always disappointed by them because I wanted it to be more

I wanted to be like roller skating and stuff you know like a like a car hop Sure yeah yeah yeah Because it was a root beer It's like a root beer thing But it's just like a convenience store It's not just a convenience store Wait is it the same stewards that makes the soda?

I don't know Can I say there's a lot of comedy stewards Stuart Smiley Yeah Stuart Little Or is Stuart Little Is it Stuart Smalley or Stuart Smiley? Stuart Smalley I think Stuart Smalley

Smalley? I think it's Smalley. And it's played by a curly-haired Minnesota. Al Franken. Thank you.

Yes. This is good. Stewart Smiley. That was like a little. That was very nice. Stuart Smiley. Smiley. Smiley.

Yeah, it's Smalley. Yeah, it's Smalley. Stewart from Mad TV. Stewart from Mad TV. Yes. And then didn't Martin short play Stewart? Wasn't there a Stewart?

Yes. John Stewart. John Stewart. Stuart's a big comedy name. And then also, Stewie from Family Guy. Oh, how could I forget. Yeah.

Lots of Stewart, Stu's in comedy. I got to say, I love that little guy, Stewie. Stewie's pretty funny. Oh, man, but he's a rascal. I mean, I don't endorse his behaviors, but he makes me laugh. Does he still get changed? He's still a baby, right? Yeah, how old is he supposed to be?

He's a baby. He's a baby. He's a pretty horny for a baby. Maybe one year old. Oh, yeah, yeah, very horny for a baby. Yeah. Well, he's in a sort of long-term committed relationship with his teddy bear. Oh, that's right, yeah.

They go on and off again, but, you know. This is where I reveal I'm deep in the family guy. You're a good company in here. Yeah, Rupert. You're talking about Rupert. Yeah, Rupert. Any notable eats in your new home in upstate New York? Great question.

Where in upstate New York? I'm in... You don't have to dock yourself. I'll believe it. Yeah. Okay. Right on the river across... Gotcha.

The thing about up there is that it's like you have the best restaurants. It's like very, very nice restaurants where they're getting the food from, like, the farms that are just next door. And then there's kind of no middle, like, it's kind of just that. Like, there's not a lot of, like, sandwich places that are just, like, good. Not a lot of grab and go. Yeah, like all the local places have been there for a long time and they're kind of like. But stewards, gas stations, have amazing ice cream. Okay.

For a gas station, I guess, but it's great. What is this? Like, softster? What are you dealing? No, it's like, it's. They get scoop ice cream. Yeah. And they make it.

From behind a counter. Oh, they make it. Wow. That sounds awesome. I mean, it's like the Stewart's brand. It's kind of a big deal, no? I got a question for you. I know, Stu Leonard's.

You didn't have Stewart's where you grew up? No. Just talking about a different thing. Something else. Also a gas station? Stu Leonard's? I have a question for you. Yeah.

This is the, I know for sure that Rip Van Winkle is that area. The Rip Van Winkle Bridge. Yeah, Hudson, right? I walk the bridge all the time. So Rip Van Winkle from there, but also, correct me if I'm wrong, is Iqabod Crane that area? Yeah, Sleepy Hollow. Sleepy Hollow is. It is Westchester. Upstate New York is such a broad term. It can, you know, it basically goes all the way up to Canada.

Yes. Hey, I went to, I lived in upstate New York for four years in Ithaca, at Ithaca College. They have a little cinematic universe up there. That's what I'm saying. I recently spent, I spent some time working in Poughkeepsie and Syracuse recently. Wow. The Cuis. Poughkeepsie had a wonderful sandwich shop.

Okay. Called Rosses. Roses deli or something. And Syracuse. It was also there. It was also there. Yeah. But if I can bring it up, a lot of the places that you guys shot at are like, there's a lot of great restaurants.

Yeah, there were good. The Chinese place that I think was a severance location. Oh, that wasn't even what I was talking about. I was there more recently than that. But yeah, there's a lot of good food up in like Hudson Valley area. And I, I... I'm a doughboy's listener, and I heard you talk about garbage plates recently. That's right.

And I spend some time in Rochester once upon a time. Yeah, wow. And I fucking love garbage plates. Wow. I'm obsessed with them to the point where I try and recreate them elsewhere just by, you can't do it. You can't do it. There's a cool local specialty in Binghamton called a speedy. Do you know about this?

No. A speedy? A speedy, which is like a skewer of. Sounds like a discount hand job. It's not discounted. That's not a discount. That's a bastard. You get caught.

You get caught stealing at second? It's like marinated chicken or lamb or pork maybe and just on a piece of white bread. And that's like the bar food. I've had dough boys up there. There are things called doughboys that are a little, like, I think they're filled with buffalo chicken or something. Like a little ham pocket, ham pie kind of thing.

Yeah, a little ham pie thing. Sounds good. I thought you were making a joke. No, this is real. Little ham pie also sounds like some type of jack-off. Right, I was waiting for it to be the doughboys, the little jerk off thing. Yeah. Well, you'll know flyer when you come visit because you're always saying you can't wait to do that.

Oh, yeah. And I'll take you on kind of a culinary tour. So the best pizza I've ever had my life and it was in Kingston. Wow. Yeah, a place called Sar and Charlie. Genuinely, an upstate New York food tour would be, you'd have a good time. That'd be fun. You think so.

Interesting. Can I take the chichu up there? You can take the choo-in-o. Okay. Go in the fall when the leaves are changing? Beautiful. So that's a full year away. so I don't have you can dilly deli.

Yeah. You can prep. Well, or you can go right now. Next year's October. No, you were just in New York. Wait some time. That's right. Yeah.

Anya, thank you so much for all that you do. You don't have to stick around, but yeah, you're welcome to, but also you can leave. Do people know how late you guys are recording these days? I don't know. I don't know. I think that would help with the narrative of no one's ever at the headgum office, is that you guys record after five. Don't try to change the narrative. We also used to record in the middle of the day.

It was the same thing. Used to start at noon. It was different. Yeah. Just different. days of the week. You are here. Good to see you, Anya.

Bye, Anya. Bye, hi. Bye. Oh, he's having fun. No, Jack, you'll tell me later. Yeah. S-O-S. We're talking Jimmy John's Picklewich menu.

We're sandwiching pickle witch is a registered trademark. It's got an R next to it. We're sandwiching our classic meats and provolome between two halves of a crispy Jimmy pickle. What's not to love? Try them all before they're done. I don't like Jimmy Pickle. either, honestly.

They're called Jimmy Pickles and that's also a registered trademark. I don't like that they registered Pickle Witch. Yeah, it's theirs. That should be everyone. Yeah, I agree with that. I agree.

I know they're saying pickle sandwich, but every time I hear it, I think of like a witch who does something with pickles. Yeah. I don't know why. That's a fun character. Yeah.

The Pickle Witch? The Pickle Witch, like she turns you into pickles or something. That's kind of fun. And she, she's dating Pickle Rick from Rick. The Picklewick. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't, I've never, we've referenced Pickle Rick so much. I don't know, uh, if you may know it. I don't, I don't, it's a good episode. You should watch it. I'll watch it. I'll watch it. Uh, the pickle witch debuted in October 2024 as an LTO. The first iteration was just two sandwiches, the Vito and the turkey and provolo.

Now they have six sandwiches plus, quote, the debut of pickle ranch, the return of pickle jimmy chips and the introduction of the ultimate pickle lovers dream, the triple pickle. Now, I saw the triple pickle. I was like, we got to get the fucking triple pickle. Turns out the triple pickle is just a combo that's a combo. pickle witch pickle chips and pickle ranch not particularly exciting do you think it was like three pickles stuffed into one yeah there was like a mega pick it doesn't that sound like it's its own thing if it was some sort of trident shaped pickle yeah that's game that you could eat or like a turduckin pickle like a pickle stuffed with two different kinds of pickles i don't know a big deal

with a something else and then a gherkin inside yeah yeah yeah that is that would be pretty good oh i would kill to bite into a triple pickle you could with the pickles they had you could put like a dill spear in that and then put a girkin in that too. You could if you wanted. If you wanted to do it, you could do it, Jimmy. So I, look, I'm a defender of Jimmy Johns, the chain. And the man.

And the man. I think the sandwiches are pretty good. I like, you know, I like a Jimmy Johns. It's not my favorite, but if that Jimmy Johns is an option, like I'm, I'll give my, I feel like I can have a satisfying lunch there. Who's the bigger piece of shit, Jimmy John or Papa John, or are they both pretty close? I mean, it's like, you know, they're both pieces of shit. It's like, you know, we're talking about both guys who are just, like, a huge right-wing donors.

And it's just like, what's the big game hunter or the racist bother you more? You know, it just depends. They're both kind of bad, you know. One might affect me more. But honestly, it could go either way. Jimmy John sees me walking Lines up the shot Yeah I don't know

If we did biggest pieces of shit in fast food Jimmy John would be up there That's kind of a fun thing for us to do at some point Yeah we could go through all of them There's a lot of bad guys There's a lot of bad men involved You should do a naughty list and a nice list That would be fun

That's such a good idea Is a really good idea All right relax What the fuck We got the ham pickle which, the tuna pickle which, the veto pickle witch, the roast beef pickle which, the turkey pickle witch, and the veggie pickle witch. So all of these are just different combinations of ingredients, sandwich between one bisected, cut the long ways down the middle, Jimmy pickle. And so I was expecting it, so it's like cut in half, they stuff all the proteins in the middle and they cut it in half again to make it be like a proper sandwich. I was expecting it to be either a little bit more substantial.

Yeah. Because it is just the size of a pickle, but you're paying the same price. A big pickle, but it's a size of pickle, but you're paying the same price as a Jimmy John sandwich. It feels like you're getting substantially less. I could be wrong. It could be the same amount of product, but it feels like less. The picture makes it look like a huge pickle. Yes.

Like a forced perspective version of Mitch's peanut. Right. But then when you see it in real life, it's much closer to a actual life. size version of Mitch's penis. Yes. Being way too generous. They're still pretty big. Yeah, they're pretty big, but I agree.

You want it to be, it's not even the biggest pickle I've ever seen. No. And you would imagine it would be. I was hoping for some of the biggest pickles I've ever seen. I would have loved to have seen some of the biggest pickles who've ever seen. And can I just say it's called a Jimmy Pickle? Jimmy Pickle. Doesn't Pickle John sound better?

I agree. A pickle John is so much better. I agree. I think it's because they do Jimmy Chips, Jimmy, like Jimmy. blank is like their branding thing. Well, you got to be nimble, Jimmy or John. What is this fucking guy's name? Jimmy John, it's both.

Jimmy John Leotow. He is an asshole. Yeah. I don't like Jimmy Johns. I've said this before. And then I think we've gotten it, like maybe the last time we got it, I was like, okay, this wasn't that bad, but I, it's. I like it's pretty good.

This is maybe the third time I've had it. Wow. You like Jimmy Jones? Yeah, like Jimmy Johns. I feel like Emma, do you have some fondness for Jimmy Johns, right? Yeah, I mean, it's, we ate it a lot during. COVID when we were in Illinois because they're all over the place. And it, it's like a very, it's a very simple sandwich in my mind. Like, it's, it's not far off from what I could make at

home. Like, it feels almost like a homemade sandwich. Whereas like a Jersey Mike's, like, load it with meat and other things. Jimmy Johns is always very like simple and plain, in a good way. And I don't mean that in a bad way. Yeah, no, it's, it's a simple streamlined experience. I think it's like a, like, it's, it's not going to be my first choice, but I think it's a pretty good option. Yeah. It's not like, I don't think I'm, I'm not getting Jimmy Johns as an indulgence. It's like a, I need lunch. Yeah, right, exactly. I maybe go Subway over Jimmy Johns.

Oh, I would 100% do Jimmy Johns over Subway anytime. Their whole thing was delivery. They, like, innovated the delivery game. Wasn't that? Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like, so fast you'll freak. Yeah. Is that, was that their tagline?

Yeah. It's like an ad thing, yeah. I told you, they opened in Ithaca when I was there, and it was a big moment in Ithaca, you know, a lot of people. And I was very excited. People were like, oh, Jimmy Johns. And I got the Italian sandwich and wasn't that impressed by it. I never really cared.

But back then. like the big thing was putting like the hot peppers on it too, which I don't know if they still do or not. I don't have no idea. Was that an option on the pickle on the pickle witches? I didn't order, but I like I think we just kind of got them as they came. Probably not. Yeah. Which would have been pickle on pickle too because they're pickled, uh, pickled peppers. Yeah. Now I know we're talking about Jimmy Johns, but I have to take this opportunity to tell you guys, do you know that I have a custom Jersey Mike's apron? Wow. Wow. Because my brother-in-law runs Jersey mics and got me and my wife Annabella aprons that say our names on them.

Oh my God. Runs Jersey mics. What do you mean? No, he like runs a couple of Jersey. It's a couple of franchises. Got it got it. Yeah. That's amazing. That's fucking huge. We got Jersey Jersey Mike's aprons that say Zach and Annabella on them. That's fucking awesome. He's in hers. Wow. Yeah. That's fucking cool as hell. Jimmy John never did that shit for me. And he probably never would. He's a piece of shit. Yeah. that is that he's just cooler than us in a lot of ways Zach Jimmy John

Yeah I guess in every Yeah I did think you make you met Jimmy John for a second I mean again he's more successful Got more money Jimmy John or I'm I think guys All of this could apply to Jimmy John or Zach We have to be more specific

Sure He's got more kills All right that's specifically Hopefully Jimmy John Yeah I'm at zero And I also am not sure Does human count as big game? The most dangerous game of all, some would say.

So here's what I'll say. The veggie pickle witch, which is just provolone and avocado spread, lettuce, tomato, and cucumber, and a whole slice pickle, I thought was disgusting. That was the one I flat out hated. Wait, sorry, which one? The veggie. Oh, I refused to eat that one because this was my big debut meat episode.

Yeah, we can't be having a taste of veggie sandwich. I said, no. Yeah. And you know what? You were right to it was gross. It looked bad. The avocado spread with all the other wet vegetable ingredients just made it like a mushy mess. I thought it was pretty insubstantial and just like, I didn't mind these overall, but that one in particular, I was like, I don't want another bite of this.

I, I, I'm going to go out here and just say this right off the top. I thought all these were bad. Wow. I did not like them. They're wet. First of all, they're very wet. They're very wet. They're extremely wet.

They're in a pickle. Yeah. Yeah. And it just doesn't, and I like pickles. The pickle doesn't even taste that good. It's not like it's like a, like I need a vinegary taste like I'm saying. It's a fine pickle. It's a fine.

I'd say fine is almost being generous. It's like, whatever, base level pickle. It was crisp. It was crisp. It was crisp. Okay, that's fair. And for a big pickle, that's good. It's crisp.

But here's the other thing. Your innards are sliding out when you're biting into this sandwich. It's not easy to eat. It's not easy to eat. Yes, you might get one or two good bites there, but then all the components are slip-sliding around. Yeah. I did not like, I did not enjoy that experience. Right.

Yeah. And I think that things that made it better, the ranch, pouring ranch on it helped. So the pickle ranch was, I mean, like it was there. It was additive, I would say, if I dipped it in pickle ranch. I don't think it needed it. But I mean, it didn't hurt. We should say the pickle ranch does not taste particularly pickling. Now, our palate may have been poisoned by too much pickle at that point, but it was, I will say, even when I was, I cleared it a little bit and I just tasted in isolation without any other pickle components, it was pretty ranch like a little bit of extra vinegar, some extra dill, maybe it was not.

Maybe you could have just been ranch. It was pretty, it was pretty close to regular ranch. Settled, subtle flavor. Very subtle. It didn't hit you in the face with the pickle or with the ranch. Right. Yeah. But I did, it did, it helped the pickle witches, I will say.

Yeah. I mean, like, I thought it was, but also I thought they were, let's talk about the ones that actually had meat in them. So, Zach, we, you know, the turkey, the roast beef, the Vito, which is a Somali capacolo and provolone, the tuna and the ham. Did you, weren't any those working for you more than others? Yes. So the first one I tried was the tuna. Yeah. And I went in with dirt low expectations.

I thought they looked disgusting. They did look gross. I thought the idea of it is bad. And then I took a bite of the tuna And I was like, this is actually pretty good The tuna worked for me The tuna, I was like, I would have eaten more of that Not because it was good as a sandwich form

It would have been much better as just like Tuna salad with chopped up pickle in it Sure But the pickle and the tuna and that worked for me And then the... Maybe the wettest of all the sandwiches by the way It was very wet. But it felt like the most coherent pairing to me

I agree, I did like the tuna one And I had a tuna sandwich for lunch. I had the picnic tuna sandwich what I mentioned over at Hillstone. Nick. A picnic, yeah. Nick picked the picnic. And I could be, it could be a, it could be a swerp from Burger Boy, pick Nick. Picnic could be a fun, yeah, it could be a nice little, little alt name.

Why not? If you ever do an outdoor episode. Pic Nick. Yeah. Okay, all right. We're added to the, added to the stable. We've never done, we've never done. Oh, we have, we did one outdoor episode.

Didn't we? Wasn't we at some, that weird festival we were outside? Yes, yeah. But we never done like a full outdoor episode. That was fun. Picnic double? Picnic double could be fun. And I am picnic.

Just throwing it out there. Yeah. I'm running it down. Wow. All right, it's in. I didn't get as big of a pop as my naughty and nice list. It got a, I'm writing it down, which is pretty good. I was sort of trying to call my shot and wait for a million to really,

I think we got to figure out the logistics of it, but that feels like a doable thing. How does everyone think Amelia runs the show? She's insane. I don't know why. She's insane. Emma runs the show. Careful.

The tuna, I agree, I thought, worked. I do like Jimmy John's tuna. I think it's a good tuna salad. Yeah. Mitch, you didn't like that. I thought it sucked. I don't know. I thought it sucked. It was bad. They were all bad. The Italian combo one, what was that called? The Vito.

The Vito. Did a kid named Vito ever trick you into eating shit or? That one was the second best to me. Yeah. The Vito was my favorite. Well, because it had a lot of salt, which I, you know, it's just like, and I know that the pickle is salty in and of itself, but it just, like, it felt like it really cut through versus all the wet ingredients. I was, I was cutting slices off the sandwiches and just eating kind of a little strip. And so the Vito felt like, you know, like an antipas, like, sure, it felt just like some rolled up.

meats and cheeses and you just eat a pickle with it. So that also felt like it worked. Yeah. And I'm generally not eating pork, but this is one of those things where we were like sharing everything. And so a lot of this was going to end up in the trash anyway. So I just had bites of everything. I had bites of the ham as well, which was just like a less successful version of the veto.

The veto was being stuffed with more different kinds of proteins. Ham was maybe my bottom. But oh, veggie was my bottom. Roast beef was also kind of a steep. Rose beef was kind of inert. Yeah, I would have thought the roast beef would have played a little bit better, but it didn't really add much to it. I thought the turkey worked, you know?

Turkey and Provalon? Sure, it was fine. But all of these, I think they, the main thing I kind of felt as I was going through all these is like, they're all kind of the same. They all taste the same because they're so dominated by the pickle bun that, you know, like, like the protein is almost like inconsequential. Now, Zach, you just busted out the MVP of the meal. You've just boasted out the Jimmy Chips, which are pickle flavor. This is another part of the LTL.

and these are really good. I did really like these dill pickle potato chips. Yeah, they're good. They've got a strong pickle flavor. Really strong pickle flavor. They actually also worked dipping them in ranch, although they did not need it, the pickle ranch. I liked Jimmy's pickle chips.

The pickle chips were great. I legitimately really liked them. You had some pickle chips you had the day as, right? Yeah, they're great. I actually put some into my mini John sandwich, and it was a perfect, like, in sandwich chip. And you got yourself a conventional. Sandwich.

Yeah, it was a mini, they called Little Johns. Little Johns, little turkey and cheese. I'm sure you enjoyed much more than our Pickle Witches. It was great. For sure. So they. He went to Little Johns and did this. They were not small.

They were not that small. They were not. I saw them. They were like this big. Your size is right. Have they never done a Lil John co-lab with Lil John? I was going to say, they're out here trademarking Picklewich and then they're stealing little John's name.

Yeah. Yeah, it's true. Yeah. Disgusting. Yeah, okay Pretty good That was good Fuck

Wait Mitch What? Okay Fuck Fuck Fuck this show Weggs

I've lost it You're doing great I lost it In fact when you said okay I was saying to my head Yeah Hold on Weiger What?

Yeah. We're just doing a very bad version of a Shepel show sketch from 20 years ago. Also, your yes freaked me out. Yeah. It sounds very strange. Wags, look, I thought all these suck. I suck. The sandwiches suck.

It's just a suck all around day. I'm sorry, Zach. sandwiches weren't that good but I when Amelia picked it up she mentioned that she took a peek back in the kitchen and um she saw she saw I mean I'll just say it she saw pickle Rick back there making the sandwiches that is crazy yeah and I guess it's because he like has experience with pickles right because he is a pickle or something but they like need him no that makes a lot of sense that he would be back there Amelia also told me she looked

back there and saw pickle Morty yeah and that's from an unreleased episode it's interesting because it's not a canonical character I didn't know I don't know they must have been doing R&D back there

for the next episode or something I actually famous pickles are there I actually saw I was actually in the kitchen the classic stork or some shit I was in the kitchen and back there I saw um uh pickle one of the protagonists of pickle and peanut that's right are you reading pickle is a gentle and simple-minded 18 year old who does not have a care in the world this is

from uh the show pickle and peanut and you know in the video game did you search famous pickle disney xd hero trip so there you know it's crazy that because he was there but you know i had burgers never say die earlier and it made me want to have five guys and so i went into five guys and I went in the back and guess who was there in the back of five guys peanut from pickle and peanut

oh peanut from pickle and peanut was back there because they used peanut oil for their fries and they have peanut shells on the floor yeah that makes a lot of sense I searched famous pickle and it's all just actual pickles there's no I couldn't find a fake famous pickle oh wait I got one

Tommy Pickles Who cares? You didn't have to bail on it I bailed on it That was a good one That was the best example Here's a fun idea Tommy Pickles versus Stewie

Whoa Baby versus baby I think Stewie would clobber him I mean yeah Stewie would kill it Would kill him Stewie has like weapons Stew would actually kill him

You think Stew would kill him Tommy always kind of gets into You know he gets out of Tommy's like pretty much a regular baby Yeah I never watched Rugrats Look Tommy and Dill

There's an issue here. Whoa, Dill Pickle. Tommy and Dill Pickle, aren't they, brothers? Do you know, is this a bathroom situation? I got a brown pickle brewing. Bathroom breakdown. I think we might have to do a bathroom breakdown. Okay.

I got to go jar something in there. Let us know if it's a pickle Jimmy or a Girkin. We'll be back with more doughboys. The diarrhea break. All right, we're back. Mitch, what's the verdict? I went, not a really successful one. More like a gurkin.

Oh, boy. A little bit more like a gherkin. I played thriller because I guess I was listening to thriller. Did you hear it? We heard, we were like, is he listening to Thriller? We all took a second to like listen really closely the music you were playing off of your phone. Okay, I'm glad that you guys listened really closely. It was Michael Jackson's Thriller.

And then we heard it go right into Not Like Us. Not Like Us did play afterwards. You know what happens When my log came out I went He he he God Do you always do that

Or only do on Michael Jackson Oh no it happens all the time Yeah Not like us came on afterwards Not a true successful I'm sorry about it But you really It felt like you really had to go

Is the thing I would expect that would be a little I did have to I know that's what I thought too and I was kind of sad to not even like the pickle we ate earlier. Did you fart a lot? There was a fart in the very beginning and I didn't want anyone. Did you?

No. We heard it and we did, we got it on mic. You're holding a mic up to the door? The headgo bathrooms are mic to now. I mean, who cares, I guess, at this point, right? We might as well do it. And then Zach almost went into the bathroom to go to use the restroom. after me, and I said, please use the front one.

Mitch made me go on the other one, which Weiger had just pissed in, and let's just say, ew, stinky. I couldn't tell if it was Weiger's pissed or if it was some stray wafts from Mitch, but. Mine was not wafting. There was no wafting. I just took a straight piss. I wouldn't end up to anything else in there. Well, I don't know what you've been eating, buddy, but.

It's that pickle brine That was a Yeah That was a I'm glad it Well I'm glad you were able to at least do something I feel a little bit better Feel a little bit better

Yeah A little bit of release Sometimes just getting that fart out is You know That's a great point Yeah yeah yeah yeah Yep That's always for me when I first

You guys don't talk about Farts enough We actually we don't Talk about Com a lot Yeah It's true We're talking about Farts That often

Sometimes you really I think we're maybe more embarrassed By Farts than we are by Kahn Well yeah I mean I think it from a body shame standpoint. It's like a little, we have a little more control over where you're going to come, I guess, in general. A little. A little, though. What's your fart to come

ratio? Honestly, around now. This is the first question I ask on a date. Right now, my fart to come ratio is probably like 3,000 to 1. Fart to come. Sure. That's a good ratio. You know, you're certainly farting. I've been I'm farting multiple times a day, you know, which I certainly can't say I'm doing that, you know, for, I just not coming that often. Sure. Yeah. Sure. How often you're doing at the same time?

I'm never. Ooh. It's never happened once? No, I've never had that happen. I'm sure it's happened to some people by accident. And also I'm sure some freaks are into that shit. Oh, yeah. Which is fine.

Not to be sure. If you're into, if you're into, if you're into farts, that's fine. We're not going to kink shame you. It is funny if you're asking, you're like, I think I'm going to. Pff. And you farted at that moment? That's like, I mean, it's a classic porno blooper, I feel like. Oh, is it really?

I mean, I think that's what you'd, like, you'd see if you're watching a porno blooper reel. Okay, all right. Yeah, hypothetically. Hypothetically. Watching a porno blooper reel? Those are, those exist. Oh, I believe you that they exist. You can find porno bloopers out there.

I'm sure you can find porno bloopers. I worked on the set of a porno once. You know this. Oh, right. For what's going on. You were the guy who was there to fart, right? For the, for the blooper reel? Yeah.

It brought in a professional. What's going on? This was your talk show that you hosted solo, and you were surprised, like, you were blindfolded, brought to a porno set. I think I guessed that I was brought to the set of the new X-Men movie, and it was a porno instead. Not quite the same. Not quite the same thing. I took my mask off, and there was an erect dick in front of me. Some may say problematic in the year 2025, but the year 2010 or whatever, it was all, it was all good.

It was a different time. It was a different time. 2010, a different time. It was also, I mean, it was a very funny bit that they did. It's also your own erectic. How did it get into your face? There's a series of mirrors. Back to your point.

Sometimes it does feel good just to fart. And I will say there is something about just being on that, like having that toilet bowl. And like, obviously, acoustically. Acoustically, it's a nightmare. But what's nice is that you kind of got your, you know, your hole exposed. You got your cheeks spread. a little bit you can really just get to get the sandblasting as much as you need to

Jesus. And then you're not like you're not moistening your pants with the hot air. Exactly. You don't worry about that. That is a great point. Like a like a shart situation you know, any sort of moisture any sort of liquid. Don't you think that the creators of toilets

could have done something to like stop the echo as much? I don't understand why they're just, they're like that. Like I feel like they could be muted a little bit. I don't know why there isn't like a liner for a toilet. let that, like, also... Or suction. Or some sort of suction or something.

I'm not concerned with that. No? It doesn't bother you. I say, let them hear. Like Marie Antoinette. What did she? She said, let them eat cake. I say, let them hear farts.

I, I, sure. I agree with it in a way. But if you're, what if someone, you have a new, you're just meeting, someone and there's a you know if i had for whatever reason there was a woman at my house yes yeah and then like i'm going i'm going to the basement and and what's nice is that you have the luxury of like you have a little bit of space you have a little bit you know like if you imagine you're living at one bedroom you wondered why i have stairs this is the reason why right you could put it you could put a silencer on that thing grab some toilet paper and press it up

while you fart that is a great that is a great point that is horrifying i don't that can't work? Well, time for another bathroom breakdown. Everyone put their ear to the door and everyone write down whether they think I farted or not. I think that would work. If you press toilet paper up to the hole and fart into it. I've like spread my cheeks to make it not sound like a fart. It's like a pillow silent. It's like putting a pillow in the... Oh yeah, the hitman. Yeah. It's really... Fuck, that's so cool. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that is cool. It's awesome. I would fart. You're in your enemy's hospital room as they're on their deadbed, pillow on their face.

Look, I think both of us are embarrassed by. I mean, for me, I have a semi-traumatic association because when I was, I was staying over at a friend's house, I was sleeping over a friend's house, and I, like, had to, like, shit and I wanted to the bathroom. And, like, I had, like, a big bowl of cereal or something. like a whole bunch of milk and like at the time it did not know did not get the understand the connection to of dairy to intestinal distress because I was just like used to having like milk every day anyway so um I had to shit I went in the bathroom and I was just blasting like farts like just super loud farts and they were kind of like like like chop it out of my ass like one

out of the after the other and then I heard a kid outside say like a wiger's having helicopter farts so I was like I was all worried I was like self-conscious about having to shit at this this kid's house and then I'm shitting in there and they can hear me shitting loudly enough that they want to comment on it. I'm sorry. Yeah, I know. And so I just imagine that happening every time I'm in there now. I get to do that. It's embarrassing your fucking helicopter

farts. I was, I've told this story before, but I was at 7th grade camp, Camp Wing, with my school and I had a shit so bad. Yeah. And they were the stalls had no doors on them. That's not great. And we were there for two days. And I didn't

shit for two days and then i remember i was in like the theater part of like there was like a theater performance and it was like a little vignettes and i i you have heard this and it was like i did this thing like the leader of the pack and i had like a i had like a monster mask on and then i like i went out and it was like rhm and i did this and like everyone was like laughing and then when i was done with that i looked at my shorts and there was a brown shit stain through my shorts yeah i had like I had like saved in shit and then I just like basically was close to shitting my pants but there was

yeah and had gone through my underwear anyone had gone through my underwear through my shorts I don't know exterior of your shorts through the exterior of my shorts I mean it's a guy with a monster mask dancing around the leader of back and he shit his pants

is pretty good Michael Buffer in a cab check him out driving by camp wing I was the leader of the pack who's had shit in my pants It sucked There was no like shit It just was like I think my ass

I was like I had to go to the bathroom so bad Yeah sure But I was so not like a guy And we were there for two days That's fucking horrible Yeah it was awful Yeah that's so good A true nightmare

Yeah that is like literally a nightmare And then never wanted a My mom worked at my high school so I was able to, she gave me a key to the first floor bathroom, and I went in there a lot of the time and could sneak away if I needed to, but I also never want to go.

And all three of them never took shits in high school. That's true. I never, that's true. All three. All like K through 12. I didn't drop one deuce at school the entire time. None of you did. You had a private bathroom.

I mean, I had a key to the first floor bathroom that my mom gave me that people still did use it. No, I would, I would say, I would save it until after school or I would shit before I went to school. I've shot thousands of times in high school. At school, wow. Yeah. Wow. I had too much, I had too much shame.

And I also was just like, I'd regulated my bowels to where I wasn't doing that. I had no, no issues firing one off. Wow. That's, that's comfortable. Yeah, you know, that's admirable. Because the truth is, we worry so much. We're so self-conscious about our bodies, but most people are not really paying attention to what you're doing. And so, you know, you can, you can just sort of kind of.

to live your own life and prioritize your own comfort this does remind me of a story from high school where I just remember this for the first time in a long time there's nothing to do with shit but it's high school bathroom story where one of my friends was in the bathroom and

always told us that one of the teachers was in there and peed at the urinal and then walked over to the trash can with his dick still out and tapped his dick on the top of the trash can to shake the piss off his dick.

And we were all like, really? And he was like, yes, I swear to God. That's insane. That's insane. That sounds like such a kid lie. Yeah, it does, but then also it sounds like something insane, a psycho teacher

would do. Did you know this teacher's reputation at all? He was an odd bird. He was an odd bird. So that's the kind of thing they might have done. Wow. That is insane, though. That's also disgusting. You're going to tap the top of a fucking trash can. You're going to trash

germs on your fucking glands? High school student trash dreams, too. Like, the bathroom's trash in a high school has got to be full of weird shit. And if I remember correctly, it was those white metal trash cans with the triangle lid that you had to, you know, that like swung open. Oh my God. Did he be opened the door to tap it off or did he just do it? I don't know. He was ratting with that bad boy.

I don't know. He was using like a speed bag. Yeah. Trying to keep the rhythm going. I ain't sucking that. No way. I say that to him as he's doing it. Just ask that question before a hook up.

I just want to have to know. Did you tap your dick on the top of a trash can to shake off some piss? That's a hard question to answer because it could go either way. It could go either way. It might be someone who wants to make sure you did tap her dick on the car can.

And it might be someone like Mitch who... Yeah. I want to make sure you don't have any piss in there. I don't care if you got some trash germs. I don't want any piss in my mouth. No first base for you, right? that's insane wow that's good

yeah I got yelled I wasn't I wasn't supposed to be in the first four bathroom and I remember like like a kid yelling at me that I was in there while I was taking a shit so that was kind of nightmarish I didn't like going I wasn't proud like I hated

having to go to the bathroom there it was the worst and then I got like you know as I like I got like stomach issues because I wasn't going to bathroom yeah that'll mess you up and you do too

so this explains it and you have IBS Oh, I shouldn't about it you. I'm sorry. I've said that before. Okay, yeah, yeah. And I have no idea. I was the opposite problem. I was, like, chronically conspated as a kid.

Yeah, so all four of us, all of us do. And you know what, Jimmy's shit and fine. God bless her. She had two huge shits this morning. She's feeling good. Wow. Congrats. Good girl.

So, Zach, you've done the podcast before. We'll each go around. We'll give our closing argument on the Jimmy John's pickle witch and give it a score from zero to five pickles. Is that crazy? I like it. Okay. We'll start with you, Zach.

I was taking a pill. Oh. I was taking one of my pills. Climidia. This is not a clemedia pill. What happened in the bathroom? Let's just say, yeah. I tap my dick on the wrong trash can.

Paula pokes his head out. You thought it was a chihuahua's mouth. It was my Phanastoride, monoxidil, and Cialis pill, all in one, if you have to know. I'm fascinated by your choice of pill timing. I'm a man who takes quite a few pills. I knock them all out in the morning. Yeah, I just kind of do them all at once. I'm afraid of interactions.

I try to give them, I try to give a staggered start in the way. I don't think that's how it works. Yeah, I just kind of do them in the morning. You do all of them? A bunch of meds all at once? One at a time. Bing, Bing, Bing. really yeah that way don't have to forget about them yeah

I mean two of my supplements I take three times a day so that I have to space out but in the morning I'm stacking them I have my trusty pill bag what's your last pill you got in there do you want that's an Adderall but I don't need it so I'm not taking it today got it got I take I've only taken Adderall like five times since I've had everyone was talking about how I took Adderall and wasn't getting sleep you're wrong it doesn't matter but you're wrong we gotta get you one this is what Zach was saying we were talking about this well they have single they have like single day one you just like it's like a little

pouch. It looks like a little coin purse, basically. I wish I had shown the bag before the start, because it does look like a day or bag. It looks like a bag of bad drugs. And now it just has the last Adderall in there, and that's it. Then I'm done for the day. Except I've got to take one last doxycycline for

my red nose. This is one of my favorite little things. I've got my little pill container. It's a little zip one, and then it has a nice, it says on the, I really like what it says on it is keep it together. That's fun. A nice little. Wouldn't you like that? That is nice.

That's a nice little mental health thing. I think it would be really nice, Nick, if you gifted that exact one to Mitch right now. If I could track down another one of these, I'd give it to me. You got one left pill ratting around in there. I can hear it. I just got a handful of pills, yeah. Sinide. I need something besides the pill bag.

We'll work on it. We'll figure something out. You fill it out, like, once a week, and then the rest of the week, you don't have to think about it. You just, like, grab the day, and you're like, here I go. That's what that's, I should do that. Also, red nose, red nose day. You worked on at one point. Mitch, thank you for bringing that up.

I was very ashamed. I wore a band-aid on my nose. Zach saw me with a band-aid on my nose on Saturday. I was very- I didn't even notice it at first. I saw you, too. The first thing Mitch said was, I got a nose job. I was making a little joke here and there. And then I was saying that I was going as a, uh, uh, Jake from a,

State Farm. That's from State Farm. Jake from a... You're having... No, you don't get to stop. Before you can even go there, I'm getting it out of the air. I went as Jake from...

State Farm. There are a few different Jake's. From Chinatown. He cuts his nose. That's what I was saying. For some reason, I can pull the two Jake's the sequel for a second. That's not that. Someone made that exact joke.

It's a Jake from the two Jigs. And a dark man. I was trying to go for a few different things. Oh, dark man's fun. My nose was very red. Yes. And it had a really bad. Rudolph.

Rudolph. You've been Rudolph. I know. I know. It was bad. I just show you how bad it was? Yes. Yeah, it was really burnt.

I know. It looks so much better than even Saturday. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like two days ago. It's impressive. What we're up doing on Saturday? None of your business.

Everyone's hanging out on Saturday? We watched some horror movies together. on Saturday. The horror movie marathon. We watched some horror movies together. How about that? It was good. Everyone else was there?

No, I did not watch horror movie. I didn't go. It was Mokey and his girlfriend's birthday. Oh, that's nice. Griffith Park hang for a birthday. Was that a secret? Well, he didn't get the invite, obviously. I didn't get the invite to like 30 minutes before the party.

So I just was doing nothing. So Gemmy and Mike and I walked over. Look. Yeah. I don't know why you didn't get invited. I don't know what to say here. Yeah. It's tough, but you're not as popular as the three of us.

I'm sure you weren't invited. I bet you actually even are on a text thread where you didn't see it. It's possible. You miss partyfuls a lot. That's true. I don't really look at partyful. I ignore partyful. I also ignore partyfuls because I don't.

Partyful is a narc. If you look at it and you're not sure yet, it's like tells them that you looked at it and didn't answer. And I feel like it's rude. So I just don't even open. That's fair. I usually just don't open them. I just, if you, if you're inviting me to something by a party full, I will never see it or look at it. That's why it's, it's probably what happened.

Wow. Yeah. Okay. Or, you know, you didn't get the invite. I'd possibly anything in the event. I also have a reputation for not going to things. So I think at a certain point, you're like, stop extending the invite. That is true.

Yeah. Well, you're invited to my birthday party. Wow. How fun is that? It's in about, uh, it's about in 11 months and 28 days. All right. Saturday actually was my birthday. What?

What? How the fuck I would have what the hell? Happy birthday! Yeah. What did you do? I've watched horror movies with me. We would have... I'm not a birthday...

I'm not a birthday guy either, yeah. Oh my God. Happy birthday. You're first on the list. Oh, I love it. Yeah. Wow, okay. We'll hang out.

Mitch is not invited. We'll have a birthday batch. We can have a belated one. That's cool. I want to your last birthday this last Saturday. It's fine. Yeah. I wish we had known.

We would have sang you a song. Yeah, I didn't tell people for a reason. I get that. That's what I do. Incantation, pretty good. Dangerous animals, pretty good. Two good horror movies. Zach, you're your fork score for the pickle.

Or, sorry, your pickle score for the pickle witch menu. My pickle score, I'm going to do two separate ones. Yeah. I'm going to do for the pickle witches overall, and I'm going to do for the tuna pickle witch. Wow. Because to me, that stood out by a significant margin. So for the tuna pickle witch, I'm going to do.

to give that 3.9 Pickles. Wow. Pickles. That we're doing it. 3.9 pickles. And then for the regular ones, two pickles.

Two pickles. Wow. Mitch, your thoughts. You seemed least enthused by this whole. I'm just going to judge them all as one. Yeah. And I'm going to go, look, Kermit's saying it. It ain't easy being green.

But I regularly really like pickles. bags. I'm a fan of pickles. I thought, I think that Jimmy John's big pickles don't have enough flavor for me and kind of there. It's just that sort of thing of like, I want that, that vinegory taste with pickles and it just wasn't there for me. And maybe it would be too overwhelming in a sandwich. But these sandwiches, they were wet and the meat was sliding around. And honestly, would I maybe even enjoy a lettuce wrap sandwich more? Possibly. That's a good cop. Interesting. Maybe I would like the pickle which more.

I don't know. And I don't even like Jimmy Johns to begin with. So. That makes me think, I wonder if they would be better if they, like a scooped out bagel, if it was a thinner, like, if they hollowed out the pickle more. That might work better. That's honestly what I thought they were going to do when I saw the picture. It was like, they must, like, take some of the guts out of the pickle and then, like, put

the stuff in the hole. Yeah. But not really, right? Otherwise, it's just all going to split up the back. No. No, it's, it's, it's too, there's too much going on. And that stuff is sliding around. Sliding around.

And like I said, I love pickle. Pickle Mitch, you can call me that. I love him that much, but I... Pickle bitch. Get his ass. God damn it. 1.5 pickles. 1.5 pickles.

I had to, I had to, because Weiger and I are like partying together now. Oh, Jesus. Have fun, you two. We'll have a great time. 1.5. 1.5. I'm going lower than you. Here's the thing. The pickle sandwich, the pickle witch,

is not particularly exciting. And I like, I like the gimmick of it, but in execution, it's pretty insubstantial. It's both too small and too big because, like, I don't feel like I'm getting a meal out of it, but I don't really want to eat an entire one. Because each bite is so samey. And also it's just, like, texturally, it's a weird mismatch. It's like too much crisp on the outside. I think that's a bigger problem.

relate to the pickle which too small and too big at the same time i get it the i i do agree the tuna one kind of worked the best though i also think the the veto one worked and a lot of the the rest of ones uh they all just kind of blurred together is a right i mean worked more more so than others but but i i wasn't enthused about any of these what i was enthused by was the pickle ranch, but more so than that, the pickle Jimmy Chips, which are legit great. Those are awesome. And if those were just on the menu, I would get those. If they just had pickle Jimmy Chips. I'll give those three and a half pickles. Those were really good. Those are legit good chips. Almost four pickles. I like those. The menu itself, I don't know. I guess it delivers

on what it's promising, but like this is a thing you get once, right? This is just a thing for the notoriety of it. This is just a thing purely for marketing. And I guess it's working because we did an episode for it. It's for low carb eaters, I guess, right? Maybe, but I don't know. I just, I, I'm going to land at two pickles for this whole ordeal. And I, now I, I would like to amend my score from the tuna pickle. Instead of 3.9 pickles, three pickles, nine gherkins.

That's, three pickles nine gherkins. That's good as hell. All right. That was her review of the Jimmy Johns pick and wedge menu. It's in the map. The math doesn't work. You gave it 1.5. One pickle 5 gherkins.

There we go. And I will do one pickle 10 gherkins. Okay. That was our review of the Jimmy John's Pickle Witch menu. It's time for a segment. I've got a mystery food. And Mitch and Zach must define its identity from a series of clues. It's the debut of food in this dude.

Holy shit. Hit it, Amelia. One, two, one, two, one, two, three, four, four. Food, food in this dude, kind you find in a grocery store. Food, food in this dude, breakfast for lunch or maybe something much more. Food, food in this dude, you must have covered. Wow. A spirited parody of Prince's Raspberry Beret.

You know what I have to say to that? Okay. Very good. Very good. Very good job. I couldn't tell if you really didn't want to do it or what your deal was. I wrote it for Wiggs to do, and he was like, do you want to take this one? I was like, all right.

I thought you wanted to do it. You seemed enthusiastic. Oh, no. I mean, I'm happy to do it. I love to sing. You seemed depressed. It didn't seem like you didn't want to do it. No, I loved it.

Okay. Great, great. It was good. Hey, we actually have another song we came up with because we, like, this, and people listen to this main feed, who may read RBI behind the paywall, haven't realized this yet. But you're also in the, the double, you're also on the Patreon episode that came out this past Tuesday, which means it's Zach Cherry Week. We're going to have fun. We're going to have fun. Zach Cherry Week. What the fuck?

We came up with this while you were shooting. Wait, what is it? It's Zach Cherry Week. No, what's the song? Did you not hear the song? Zach Cherry Week. We're going to have fun. We're going to have fun.

We're going to have fun. What is your question? You said, what is the song? Is that too any tune or is just a new song? It's an original song? Original. I thought it was a skinny pop. I was originally thinking it was like unskinny bop.

But then Amelia kind of took in her own direction. yeah yeah it's it's cherry it's cherry it's cherry these episodes are cherry picked wow cherry picked episode wow there's a cherry on top there's a cherry on top that's true and now cherry was picked wow that's pretty damn good I and hey I cannot tell a lie these episodes are pretty good that made me feel insane the song we're all saying together that you planned when I was shitting all right so the hints grow increasingly obvious for food in this dude. We're going to have fun.

We're going to have fun. Zach Cherry week. We're going to have fun. We're going to have fun. All right. Now we're one of you. We're all on board. The hints grow increasingly obvious.

We usually have some lifelines for these. We have the smell test. Sorry. This is a debut segment simply because it's not pie. It's not pie or cake. We've done pie in this guy and we've done cake it off. Okay. But this is neither of those.

This is food in this dude. This is a non-pie, non-cake food. I don't know what the food is, so if the Emma lifeline can stay alive. Okay, so Emma doesn't know what it is. So we have Ask Emma, and we also have the smell test. So you can evoke those lifelines at any time. Maybe the smell test can be the color test. Okay, well, the color test.

And you'll reveal the color? Yeah. Okay, we'll do the color test. Okay. All right, that'll be a change. All right. Zach, you are a guest. You can choose whether or not to go first or second.

And keep in mind, the clues start at their most obscure. as Papa Doc once said to be Rabbit on the stage of the shelter let this bitch go first Wow All right

I'm the Mackey I'll take the Mackey roll Here we go Well I'm Mackey in this context Oh shit I'm Papa Doc Oh you're fuck that's right Oh fuck

Oh wait Eminem wins though A rabbit wins Well we'll find out Alright here we go Your first hint The shape of this dish Might be something you find at the beach or a joint

on your arm. Shape of this dish might be something you find on the beach or a joint in your arm. A joint in your arm. The shape of this dish might be something you find at the beach

or a joint on your arm. I know the answer. Mitch, keep in mind you have two lifelines, the color test and ask Emma. You better get it right because I know the answer. Fuck! Could be gamesmanship. A shell you find on the beach. A shell or a shape? The shape of this dish might be something you find at the beach or a joint on your arm.

Starfish. Star joint. The shape of starfish. Your hand kind of looks like a starfish. Good point. I thought you said we're going to have fun, we're going to have fun. I'm having fun. I'm having fun.

answer. Fuck. Emma? Lifeline. I have no idea. I'm like thinking of all the joints in my arm. Wrist, elbow, shoulder, knuckles.

I'm going to guess a shape you find at the beach. I'm going to go. My guess is a, um, what's shaped like of starfish? Any food that you can think of? Starfish. Can you mean Starfish?

Star Nise. Star Nise. A little... Yeah, they are. Shavely, very. I'm gonna... All right, I don't know the answer. Um... I can't do the color test, can I? Or the color thing, either.

I think you only can invoke one lifeline at a time. He's gonna get it. This is the issue. I might. I don't know. I might be wrong. I might also be lying. I might be lying. I'm not. I'm gonna guess a Dorito. All right, Mitch guest is a Dorito. It is not a Dorito.

Zach, your hint. This dish gets a lot of love. Thomas Jefferson popularized in the U.S. after serving it at a White House state dinner in the early 1800s. It's sort of a dark history behind that. Crayola named a crayon after it in 1993. It even has its own national holiday July 14th. That's right.

It's what you might find a beach is the shell and the joint in your arm is the elbow. It is macaroni and cheese Zach, you have one food in this dude Sorry, sorry, Zach Cherry Week We're gonna have fun

We're gonna have fun Zach Cherry Week I didn't have fun I didn't have fun Oh Mitch, don't be a sore loser I have fun too Macaronian cheese I knew it

You reached for an out of a lifeline And I let you drown sorry That's fine I didn't heat it up because of Oh, hell yeah. You get some Bob Evans, Mac and Cheese, which you can take. There's two to three. Is that microwavable or oven base?

I think it's microwavable. Perfect. There you go. Fuck. The remaining clues. Why do you want to come over and eat that later? Yeah, sounds like a blast. All right.

You're not in a birthday celebration. I have fun, you do. Hit number three. After the success of E.T. in 1988 in 1988, a Craven Ripoff was released, which featured, quote, an alien trying to escape from next. NASA is befriended by a wheelchair-bound boy. The title is a clue to this dish. Mac and Me.

And hint for you can get crafty with this famously abbreviated dish at bacon or truffle at breadcums or scallions use white or cheddar. That I think would have made it obvious. I think you should have had a guess Bob Evans' mac and cheese. That's interesting. That would have been my guess. No, I actually have never heard of Bob Evans' mac and cheese. I thought they only made sausages.

Yeah, I haven't heard of Bob Evans' Mac and Cheese either. Where'd you get this? It was next to the sausage. Wow, okay. In the, like, that section. Hold on a second. Elbow mac and cheese shell. Yeah.

Yeah. It's another type of pasta that's often used in mac and cheese. But these are elbows. Yeah. Yes, elbow macaroni. But for the dish, you can get mac and like. It's still called mac and cheese if it's made with shells, Mitch. I'm pissed off.

They don't call it shells and cheese. You won fair and square. You nailed it. Just like a restaurant about your feedback. Let's open to the feedback. That was food in this dude. Just like a restaurant We buy your feedback

Let's up with the feedback Today's email is from Schnazzi in the dose score Schnazzi writes I'm laying here getting a vasectomy while listening to you guys Because the doctor

recommended to bring something that would calm and distract me So what are some foods That calm you down For example my wife And I get McDonald's When we're anxious And or depressed

Shout out to the Deas First Time Long time Congrats on the SNIP Schnazzy Yeah congrats on the SNIP Snazzy So Schnaz was on their phone

I guess so Wow. Yeah. That's cool. Yeah, that's intense. I didn't know you were allowed to have your phone during a vasectomy.

I might get one. Whoa. Just now that I know you're allowed to be on your phone. I guess you could live stream it if you wanted to. Katie Couric's anal canal.

She's got a colonoscopy live, right? Yeah. Yeah. Broadcast live to everyone. I wonder if anyone's done a deceptomy on Twitch or whatever. Someone must have done it at some point. Someone's just a live streamed.

If they haven't, double. I mean, we've done worse doubles. I'm writing that down. Add it to the list. I've said this story one billion times, but I saw the camera going up my butt. Yeah. What do you mean by that?

I saw the guy, I was getting a colonoscopy. I saw the camera going up my butt live. I was watching it. You weren't unconscious during colonoscopy. Yeah, I was conscious watching it. Wow. Was it uncomfortable? Because that's usually the thing that's medicated.

Yeah, yeah. I was like, I had like pain killers. But I was, I was, I was, I was conscious. I wanted, I got a colonized me, and I wanted to do that. And they were like, don't they were like, you got to go to sleep, buddy. I was a child. I was awake. I have no idea why they kept me awake, very strange.

You don't have to go under. Yeah, yeah. Wow. I went under the second time, and it was fantastic. Foods that calm you down. This is a, this is a tough one, because I do use food as a coping mechanism. And I was. Yeah, it could be almost any food.

It could be almost any food, but, like, a lot of food I'm, like, I'm, like, super anxious while I'm eating or, or, and, and it's like, I don't know if this is actually calming me, you know, like, if, like, me eating, like, a sleeve of Oreos, which is the thing I would use to do is, like, I get, like, a fucking thing, I get Oreos and they eat, like, just, like, the whole column, you know what I mean? And, and, and, and, and, and have, like, a, like, a, like, jug of wine. And I'm like, is that calming me down, or is this just, like, numbing the pain? I don't know. But I will say that I do find This is an obvious thing But like some some nice tea Always calls me now Some herbal tea Camomile

Yeah I do that Or just like a like a mint green Like a Moroccan mint tea or something like that Just like yeah That's a go to for me You know the thing that I do when I'm like It's funny because I mean my Celebratory meal

Is a pizza Yeah But also I think that is like For me it's like Oh What a week and also pizza. I think pizza is kind of the all-filling comfort food.

That's my go-to comfort food as well. But not, I don't consider it calming me down. I do think of it as a comfort food, but I don't think of it as calming me down. Yeah, calming me down is, because I do, I get what you're saying with tea. I guess that is like a good answer of like a nice calming tea. Because like thinking of this scenario is that you're getting your hog operated on

while semi-conscious. It's like what's something that's going to, you know, like make you, like a food that would put you in a calmer place. Soup maybe? Soup might do it. Soup would be good. Coming off crocdober, what is it? Crocdoberfa-est.

Crocdo burn fah-est. Crocdo burn fah s. Crocdo burn for ass. Did you sense any calming effects from the soup all month? No. No, I was pretty much boiling over with rage. Yeah. Okay.

Well, but yeah, I think. soup for me like a chicken noodle or a miso soup something simple yeah you know it like something without like a cream base yes just something that's not going to give me diarrhea nice tomato soup could help me out too yeah tomato soup could up i was also that was also making me think you know what i think i think like a warm bowl of like gruel like am i having like you know what i mean like but but like like i like i like i like a like a warm bowl of oatmeal or something sure like some oatmeal with like a banana and some, and a little, little, a Peter North drizzle of, of, of, of, of, of, of, a, of, of, a, of, a maple syrup, you know. Yeah.

Hot apple cider. Hot apple cider. Hot apple cider. Pancakes. Ooh. Pancakes. That's, like, kind of comforting. Yeah.

Or, honestly, mac and cheese. Pancakes is pretty good. Yeah. Mac and cheese pretty good. I would just worry about giving me, uh, the rumblies. Yeah. Yeah. Which, for me is very not calming.

Warm apple cider really good. Hot cocoa, warm apple cider are good, good options, too. What about a piece of apple pie? That's kind of nice. I think a piece of pie is a very calming. Yeah, definitely. Come down, come sit down, have a piece of pie. Have a piece of pie.

Honestly, mashed potatoes. Mashed potatoes is pretty good. Because it's almost like a cloud. It's like a dream. Yeah. Okay, okay. It's dreamy. Yes, yeah.

Somewhere. Just have a nice slice of pie. Hold on, you're a fucking pickle witch. You're a pickle witch. That's, you know, she offered you, she brought. You brought you in a half a piece of pie. Yeah. She wanted to turn you into a pickle.

This is your guy's creation. I was trying to come up with the pickle witch. You know, when fucking gave a shit. She tricked you with a piece of pie, lured you into her layer. Yeah, yeah. And now, like, the hag in Balders Gate,

she has cursed you and turned you into a pickle witch. Pickle Mitch, yes. Let's talk about Baldur's Gate for a few hours without Mitch. Remember how good night game was? It's a great game. Really love it. I used to, one of my favorite stretch of the podcast is when you talked about baller's skate nonstop

and Mitch was angry about it. I mean, still get angry remembering it. Good game. You should try it. Really good game. I've owned the only real game I play this year, I guess, was I played a little Mario Kart and then I played Donkey Kong. Oh, Banana.

Maybe, was there another game earlier this year? Oh, did I play, was a PS5 was the Astrobot this year? Astrobot came out, I think maybe two years ago. No, it was last year. Okay, last year. Then I didn't really, I didn't play many other games this year. Resident Evil, that's the next one I'll play. That's it for me.

A lot of calming foods. Jayas, do you have any answers besides anything we haven't gone over? No. I think miso soup is kind of great. That's kind of perfect. Like a nice broth. Yeah. Yeah.

Ramen maybe. Like if it's like a cold, like sleepy day, a nice hot bowl ramen will do you right. There's something also about like a like a cold lunch for some reason. Like I don't know why I'm thinking that. But I'm just like a cold lunch? Yeah, like a cold lunch. Like a sandwich that's been in the fridge, you mean? Or like...

Yeah, what is you talking about? No, I mean, like, I'm just thinking like, like, like, you know, like a, like a, like a, like, yeah, just like a regular sandwich. Like nothing particularly fancy. Sure. I don't know. I think so. I think it's, it could feel like kind of like a school lunch. Yeah, if it comes out of lunchbox.

Yeah. I agree. A nice plain, like just white bread and a couple of slices sandwich. Yeah. Very calming. A few sedatives in there. Calm you down. That's it.
