This is a headgum podcast. On April 12th, 1960, with Vice President Richard Nixon in attendance and Mayor George Christopher throwing out the ceremonial first pitch, the San Francisco Giants officially began play in their new state-of-the-art stadium called Candle Stick Park. Built to accommodate the baseball Giants following their transcontinental move from New York, Candle Stick Park would later serve dual duty as home field for San Francisco's pro football team, the 49ers. And it's in Candle Stick Park that the Niners would become a dominant NFL franchise, winning five Super Bowl titles from 1981 to 1995 under the leadership of Bill Walsh and powered by

a brigade of Hall of Fame players, including in a city famed for its San Francisco tree, a wide receiver named Jerry Rice. Unlike the New England Patriots in the 2000s, the 49ers' five titles weren't clouded by cheating scandals like Spygate and Deflategate, or spoiled by a humiliating championship game meltdown that left them with a record of 18 and one. But unfortunately for Niners Nation, since those dizzying late 20th century heights, ruin has come to the franchise. Although they reached the title game in 2013, they have failed to appear in the playoff since, and the quarterback who guided them there, Colin Kaepernick, was de facto banned by the league's notoriously right-wing ownership in response

to his on-field political protests. And with their Super Bowl victory is now a fading memory, locals have turned to a new Bay Area institution that claims the adjective of super. A hamburger sandwich chain founded by chef Adriano Paganini in 2010. First opened in the Castro district, the concept prided itself on an upscale version of fast food, boasting locally-sourced produce and grinding their grass-fed beef in-house each day. In a city that's a flashpoint for America's income inequality crisis, the chain's marketing leaned into its more expensive product. Among its taglines is, burgers shouldn't cost $3. In fact, their signature super burger costs a staggering $825, $9 with cheese. But in land of startups, this upstart chain drew

crowds nonetheless, growing into over a dozen locations and boasting a reported $70 million in sales. Candlestick Park was demolished in 2014. And today, the 49ers don't play in San Francisco at all. Their new home field, Levi's Stadium, is an hour away in Santa Clara. But chef Paganini's burger chain continues to thrive in the city by the Bay, hubristic name and all. This week on Doughboys, Super Dupre Burger. Welcome to Doughboys Live. How you doing, San Francisco? Uh, guys, we've got a heck of a show for you. But before we go any further, this week's roast is courtesy of Megan and Anthony Evers. Let me introduce my co-host, Mucinex mascot,

the Spoon Man, Mike Mitchell. Fucking bullshit opening you have there. There isn't a good position for this microphone stand and my laptop. I think I'm just gonna have to go handheld. I will have fun watching you struggle with the entire show. That's a real issue. What are these papers? What is this? What is this? Are these your ramblings here? Oh, yeah. This isn't ready for your eyes yet. No, this is the schedule. You will pay, Mike Mitchell. You will pay.

This appears to be the schedule for Sketch Fest. And this is listing all of the shows that are going on at Cobbs Comedy Club, which is the venue we're at right now. We're on here at 1 p.m. Dope Boys with Mike Mitchell and Nick Weiger. And then under description, it just says, shit show. So I don't know what that means. Mitch, how have you been? We haven't, we saw each other briefly last night, but we haven't, it's been a month in change. You've been in Quincy for eight weeks, how long you've been, how long you've been home? I went to Quincy for three and a half weeks. Okay. And it was great. I feel great. I didn't

see you at all. It was, it was nice. I went to Cheers. I went to the Cheers bar. That's a real bar. Was it in response to the show? Yes. They made, they made one that looked, because the original Cheers doesn't look like Cheers. Like it doesn't look like how Cheers looks. So they made one that looks, in, in Fennel Hall, they made one that looks like the actual Cheers from the show. So it's like going to Krusty Burger. It's not like a real, it's like going to Universal Studios and visiting Simpson's land. It's not an actual Boston.

Why are you saying that? Why are you saying that condescendingly? Those places are fun. They're fun. I'm just saying it like... People, people thought I was a George Went cutout. Wow. How does a cutout age? That's weird. Mitch, for the third year in a row, our show is scheduled the same day as the women's march. That's right. And we're all proud of you for being here instead of there. You made the right choice. This is what's known as counter-programming in the industry. I'm starting to think the women's march is in response to our show.

Mitch, you know, a lot's happened. The new year... Did you do anything for the new year? Any, any cool festivities? I know some of your, your Boston friends are in attendance. You know, I went to an escape room with my mom and sister and my godparents and their family. That's a fun combo. I was no help at all. I really was no help. Uh, they're, they're hard. I don't know if I like them. And also, like I've said before, like, I don't want to escape a room. I like the room. I like a room. I like to sit in a room. I don't have to leave the room. You find, you, you're the guy who could defeat, uh, Jigsaw's logic.

Because he'd be like, wait, this guy just wants to live in this dungeon? Yeah. If Jigsaw has a pillow, I'm set. He just needs to get me a pillow. And lotion, if you catch my drift. Nick, you like staying in a hotel? This is a big part for you. You get to come up to San Francisco. You get to stay in a hotel. I like a hotel, you know. I'm, I like, I like being at home. Uh, I don't love to travel, but I do like, I feel like the, the predictability of a, of a hotel, like I just know what's going to be there.

I know what's going to be like, kind of like, you know, especially if I've been to a chain before, or to a, it's the same thing as eating at a chain restaurant. So if I've been to a hotel chain before, I know what to expect. And so I get to go in there and that's, that's like comforting. A hotel room is good for three things. I told you this. Napping, crappin' and fappin'. Mitch, I appreciate you acknowledging that you told me this because you did tell me this twice yesterday. And again this morning, and then said backstage, I'm going to say it in the show.

And I told our guest it too. It's like the first joke I ever came up with. And it's not a joke, really. Those words sound alike, that qualifies as words alike. Yeah, it works, it works. Alliteration or something like that. Oh wait, I want to say, how the hell the Spoon Nation. We usually at the top of the, so at live shows, we'll play a 30 second drop. And it feels like it's fucking forever when we sit here and it's terrible for us.

Right. So today, we have a full minute drop. And it goes out to someone we love. If you can play that drop, let me hit it. Um, hey U-Song, I have a question real quick. Yeah. What the fuck is your problem? You gotta get green tea. You gotta get green tea.

You gotta get the green tea. U-Song, you know, he does his best. You look great, U-Song. U-Song, you look great. You always look great. People call you a snack online. Something is really weird going on with you. I just have to go to the bathroom. Don't you guys love him?

He's great. Like deep love. He's a great dude. He's great. Yeah, he's alright. He's like good company, good vibes. I really like him. We love him.

We love U-Song. It's no one's fault. Yes. It's one person's fault. We're not going to say who it is, but his name rhymes with U-Song. U-Song, you sent that to us saying it was a good drop. U-Song, you're fucking fired. Oh, that's their fucking...

Weird tag there. Weird tag. Switches gears. Money maker. It's a great song. That's for U-Song, everybody. Give it up for U-Song. This week's drop was courtesy of Brad Hill, who writes,

Dearest U-Song, now that you've been officially fired for what I must assume will be the final time, I wanted to send you off with a proper farewell drop. Your time on the podcast was cherished by all that listened and your presence will be missed. Likely not by Mitch or Nick, but by most of the rest of us. U-Song, you did nothing wrong, Brad. P.S., this better not be one of those times where you fire him, but you aren't really firing him because they put a lot of time into this drop. Mitch forgot to read this at the show.

Back to the podcast. Also, the LOOs are in attendance tonight. U-Song's parents are here. Give it up for the LOO family, everybody. You guys are out there somewhere. They might have left already. Yeah. You guys are...

Thank you for bringing such a wonderful son into the world and letting him work for us. We're glad you guys are okay with us paying him in Mitch bucks. And UCB class credit. You can change your Mitch bucks in for a Mitch massage. So far, no one's turned in any of their Mitch bucks. Mitch, let's introduce our guests. You know, from the late, late show on the podcast, cool playlist. Give it up for Eliza Skinner!

That's... Do you know what alliteration means? No idea. I thought the audience didn't really give me too much shit for it, so I just went with it. They don't have mics. It's when the first letter is all the same, so what you did is rhyme. Oh. Which means that hotel rooms are good for one more thing. Wrapping.

Drop that beat! My mom was an English teacher. Then what happened? Never paid attention to her, bro. Alright. Chill, lady. Eliza, how has your SF weekend been so far? Any fun eats other than the chain we went to last night as a group?

Your questioning is intense. Have you just met him? I mean, he karate-jopped the table when he was asking that question. Yeah, he wanted to be specific about it. He didn't want playing around. And also, your only eats have been with him basically besides breakfast. You don't know me. I apologize.

Okay, they have mostly been with him. I had some great granola bars. Oh, that's fun. Wait, what? Well, I got free granola bars. No, no, him. Oh, that's fun. No, it's not fun.

Well, he's being nice to the guest. A granola bar would be okay. I'm nice to you too, but it's not fun. Oh, thank you. Wow. But I went to this bakery. There's this bakery I like to go to when I come here, and they always have these little morangs.

Oh, boy. Yeah, but today it was like rainbow. So I'm going to eat just a pile of sugar later and then be real happy and then probably cry. What is the bakery? I think it's the Fillmore. The Fillmore? The Fillmore?

Anybody out there? Whoa. Just like a little tiny old bakery that's close to our hotel. Right. And then the morangs. I come every time. I mean, I don't come every time. You.

Okay. I go to that bakery every time that I'm here, and I use my hotel room for all kinds of things, learning mostly. Well, we got one more guest. Let's introduce him from at midnight in the sci-fi narrative podcast bubble. Give it up for Jordan Morris. Oh, my God.

Hi, everybody. Hi, Jordan. You know, this is just something that's maybe kind of, this is Deep Doe Boy's lore here, but we all know that there's the Roast Spoon Man Gmail. Yes. There is actually a Roast Wiger Gmail that I run. You've mentioned this before, yes.

Some people, you don't get to hear the roast unless I'm on the show. Right. But since I'm on it, I thought I would maybe just get a favorite from the Roast Wiger Gmail. Sure, sure. Mitch, this is actually just something that came in. Yeah, I don't know if you want to read that from the Roast Wiger Gmail. Oh, I would love to read it.

Okay, from the... This is from the Roast Wiger Gmail. This is my co-host, Nick Wiger, or as they know him around the skate park, Mona... Monotonia. I fucked it up. I fucked up the one chance I had to make fun of Wiger.

Or as they know... I'll look next year. Or as they know him around the skate park, Mona Tony Hawk. I like that. There is also a Roast Jomo email. Oh, is there really? Okay, read that.

Oh, this is for me to read. Again, this is something I don't... Unless I'm on the show, people probably aren't hearing a lot from. I read this now. Yeah. Okay, so imagine Jordan is about to walk out. Please welcome our guest, Daydrunk Precious Moments figurine.

Jordan Morris. Did you guys also... Also, even rarer to appear on the show, there is also a Roast E-Skins email. Oh, wow. Oh, this is more exciting than my wiki feet. Yeah. Not as nasty.

Yeah, I do gross things with my feet. I guess I'll read this one. Please welcome our guest, washed out former member of Gem in the Holograms, Eliza Skinner. She took it as a compliment. Thank you. I actually played, you know, by Mona Tony Hawk.

I played Tony Hawk's stunt double in a sketch once. Really? The whole thing was that when Tony Hawk comes... This was on the comedy Bang Bang TV show. The whole thing was that when Tony Hawk comes on... It's a matter of woots there. The whole thing is when Tony Hawk came on talk shows, he had a stunt double because he couldn't risk injury

because he's such a skateboarder. And I was picked because I was the same size as him. And I got to wear his clothes. Whoa. I played Tony Hawk in a sketch show. Did you really? Yeah, I had to start every line with, it's me, Tony Hawk.

It's pretty fun. Tony Hawk and I briefly dated. Whoa, very cool. It's like, it's not... We weren't in a place to like... Timing. It's not timing. Timing. We're both so busy.

We're so busy. I was in that sketch with you, Nick. Your piece of shit. No, that was... Wait, no. Okay, there was a different Tony Hawk bit that was filmed the same day. It was at the same sketch.

How much of your résumé is Tony Hawk related sketches? Look, you have Tony Hawk for a half day. You try to shoot like four to six bits. That's how this industry works. You make the most of someone's avail. Sure. But yeah, that was one where Tony Hawk... He clomped your head together with Michael Cassidy's head.

That's right. Like, you know, like, coconut. Yeah, you guys were really nice to me on Comedy Big Bang. I always played a guy who was like... Hi! Like, literally, they were like, be dumber. I was like, all right. Oh, here's trash food.

So they didn't see the rest of your range. I like the Patriots and stuff. Why didn't you write to that? Jordan, up here in SF... You're a frequent Bay Area traveler. I would say, Ray, you're up here about once a year. Yeah, we definitely come up here and do podcasting stuff at SF SketchFest.

Great audiences. I am not saying that to Panda. These are awesome audiences. You should have wooed, though. I know I said it. I know I said I wasn't trying to Panda, but fucking woo that. Come on.

Woo! Yeah. It's kind of gross. I don't think our audience is capable of wooing. It's more just like a woo. No one has the energy, because they're eating too many chain restaurants. We would woo, but our mouths are full of blue cheese.

Something like an unconfident little choo-choo train right then. Oh, god, damn it. Why did I have to get that in there? But I had to. Do you mean, like, the sound of choo-choo train means, or like, like, I think I can? I think I can. Yes.

That's when they were like, woo! Okay, so the first word. All right, okay. That guy learns a lesson over the course of a half hour of children's programming. And by the end, he's like, woo! I think they sounded like sad ghosts. I thought your second one, in your second one,

the train sounded horny. Oh, okay. Look, I'm out of this. Yes, love coming up to SF doing the sketch fest. It's a great place to eat. It's a great place to drink. Yeah, the bar game up here is very strong, especially in North Beach.

Well, we got you guys both on stage, and Mitch, I know you're a guy who likes to cut loose a little bit. What are your favorite... What? If you're gonna go and have... You're a guy who likes to party. Okay, yeah, no, I do.

If you're gonna go and have a few alcoholic beverages, where are the spots you like to hit up? We went to one last night, and I get made fun of for going all the time. It was a lot of fun, though. We went to Tonga Room last night. We went to the Tonga Room. Had a nice time.

People liked the Tonga Room. And I said that a fun thing to do, and you disagreed with me, is that they should have a section where you get rained on. There's rain in the Tonga Room, but you can't get under it. Right.

And I said that, like, you should have the choice as a customer to be eating breaded shrimp while you get rained on. They just, like, they pick one person in the restaurant who's the most depressed. Yeah. And just always be raining on them. Yeah, can we dump some recycled wastewater

on your poo poo platter? Do you feel like that in general or just at that place? Yeah, in general, too. I like the rain. I mean, I don't like to eat a sandwich in the rain or something. Yeah, you're not like an emo guy. Emo guy.

I like tropical stuff. I've said this before. Yes. Do you like the island? The aesthetic of Tonga Room, I want to find the location on Earth that's like that, and I don't know where it is. Have you been to Disneyland?

I haven't been to Disneyland. It's not really a real place, right? It's like kind of like a, it's an amalgamation of a bunch of different cultures kind of jammed together, right? That's the whole thing of Tonga. You haven't even been all over the world, you haven't even left fucking

the North America, you piece of shit. I've been up and down the West Coast. He's been to Santa Barbara. He's traveled. He's been everywhere except to him. I wanted to bring it down for a second. Eliza, Jordan, any drinking spots of choice? Taverns?

Oh, sure. We're kind of close to the, if I might get the name wrong, please shout at me if I'm getting wrong. The Verdugo Cafe? Am I? Vesuvio. Vesuvio.

Sorry. Yeah, Vesuvio, it's kind of like a place where the beat poets drink. Yeah, it's a lot of fun. I mean as kind of the poet laureate of the podcast world. I think it's an appropriate place for me. Yeah, I remember the first time I went in there they had something called the Recession Special

where it was like a shot of Old Crow in a Michelob for like four bucks. I'm sure that is now because of the wealth in San Francisco. I'm sure that is now 12 bucks. But at the time it was a real treat. Is there any more beat poetry? Is there beat poetry anywhere? Can you find beat poetry?

I would guess that you probably can but it's not called beat poetry. Like that's, I would say that that's that era. Yeah, yeah. But you could find like free verse rhythmic poetry. That's cool. I want to check it out. Slam poetry you could find.

Yeah. Yeah, I dated some of those guys. Bitch, my understanding is you've written some beat off poetry. I knew that was, I knew you would say that. Beyond drinking, beyond going on, is there any, like Eliza you mentioned the bakery that you like to hit up.

What kind of foods do people like to get in San Francisco when you're up here? Bitch, I know you have your routine of like you kind of hit up your three places, your house in Nanking, your Tonga Room, and your Sam's Burgers. That's right. Sam's fucking rule, Sam's is great.

A good trilogy. Have we all had Sam's Burgers? Okay, the audience has. I usually do, and I did this last night, I did a drunk burrito. Oh, that's fun. The drunk burrito game up here is very strong. It's in the foil, great salsa bar,

salsa bar is up here, second to none. It was a real treat. I was talking to a couple of people from, I was guessing on another podcast, and I was talking there in Tennessee, and they were saying that the salsa bar is not migrated out there yet. I was surprised, because the salsa bar

has got to be everywhere by now, but it's just, I guess it's still just an incertainerity. I've had Mexican food in Tennessee, and it is not evolved. Right. It is very like school lunch from the places I've gone, but you never know the cross-section

of the establishments you're going to. Is that representative of the whole town, or just did I pick the place that has very yellow rays, like too yellow. Right. Like that's not how it's supposed to be yellow. Dollywood has a good burrito. No, it doesn't.

Dollywood's known for its burrito. No, that's not right. Wait, you got a burrito at Dollywood? What was the context for this? No, I was joking, I don't know. I believe every Dollywood, remember I told you there was a rollercoaster at Dollywood that went into Dolly Parton's cleavage,

and you believed me? You were like, wait, what? That's crazy. I was like, it's a joke. There's no rollercoaster that goes into a cleavage. She has kind of a kitschy persona, and I thought that would be maybe the sort of thing that she would embrace.

That's insane. Nick, I should probably tell you right now, I don't have an uncle that works for Nintendo. And there's no sequel to Super Mario where you can see Wario's dick. I'm sorry, I was joking. I assumed you knew I was joking, but... Playable Waluigi is still DLC for Smash Brothers, right?

Oh boy, who wants to tell him? Oh, I don't want to be the one to tell him. So we're talking burgers today, and we've got a specific burger chain. Eliza, I'm curious, what is your burger fandom? Where would you rank burgers in the pantheon of all the various treats that one could consume, and what are your favorite burgers?

Okay, I love a burger, but I don't have them frequently, because it's way more of a commitment than I think that we acknowledge. I think we're like, just a burger, but man, that's a lot of food, or it's bad. It should be a lot.

So I like them a lot. I don't have them a whole bunch. I like a homemade burger. Like my dad's burgers. How did your dad fix up that burger? He cooks them too long until they're like a hard meatball on the grill outside, and they're hard to bite into,

but he loves meat. What's that like? It's pretty cool. I don't know how I ended up in comedy. My dad is dead. Sorry, that's sad. My dad is dead, but his burgers suck so much. Then if they were like,

you dad can come back for a few minutes, and he'd make you a burger, I'd be like, I'm good. I also love a room service burger. That really feels like, I'm a rock star, I finished my show. I love the room service ketchup. Either it's the little tiny guy, or it's a little ceramic pot with cellophane over it.

There was gonna slosh out on the way. And whatever the container they give you, the knife won't fit in there? Oh yeah, it's like tink, tink, tink, tink. It's bad, yeah. So that's my burger stance. I don't get room service. Do you guys get room service?

Yes, I was not allowed it as a child, so I get it every time now. Wow. You don't get the idea of it, or you just don't get it? It's kind of both. I don't use... Jesus.

The worst answer. Because I never, even at my home, I never get food delivered. That's like a once a year thing. But I will just like, because I like getting out, if I'm gonna have a meal outside, I'll be like, I wanna get out of the house.

Even if I'm gonna get to go, I wanna be able to go to this place and stretch my legs a little bit or get a little fresh air, you know. But yeah, definitely room service in a hotel. I'm like, first of all, there's a huge premium on this. And secondly, I can go out in this new city

and try some of these local eats. I don't know. But I get it, I understand it. But not after you've just finished your sold out show at the Palladium, I don't know, whatever cool rock venue I have imagined myself playing at. Then I'm like, oh, you guys,

hang out in your room. I gotta rest my voice. I'm just gonna get a burger in mine. So I send the rhythm section off and I have some quiet time to myself. Jem's, the rest of the Jem. Those are the holograms. I'm the Jem.

Oh, sorry. I apologize. Do you, Mitch Jordan, what's your guys' room service go-tos? Oh, room service. You know, I'm always, I mean, I'm always, I mean, I like the decadence of room service.

I like feeling like I'm part of the problem when I get a meal. It's nice. I usually don't love the food. So I usually do something simple. I've gotten a lot of room service burgers and they're usually pretty tasty. So yeah, I usually try and keep it simple.

Love that little room service breakfast where you check off what you want the night before, hang it on the door. The time commitment stresses me out with that. It's like eight o'clock. I don't know. Who am I going to be tomorrow? But yeah, these are kind of,

something simple. So burgers, yeah, bacon and eggs, stuff like that. Mitch, any room service picks? As much of a slob as I appear to be. I don't like, I can't eat like food in bed or something. That's for crapping and fapping.

Exactly. We know that things are doing it there. It makes sense. The beds for crapping? We don't make up the rules. We're just telling you what he says. Yeah, yeah, okay. Snapping, crapping and fapping.

All in the bed. I don't usually get room service too much. If I do chicken fingers or quesadilla. Oh, chicken fingers. That's a great one. Yeah. Or a burger. As far as burger love goes,

I'm probably on a wimpy level. Wimpy being the character from Popeye, who tricked people into giving him burgers. Right. And he didn't trick them, he just had a pyramid scheme. Yeah, see, he would pay you for a burger tomorrow

or something that he got today. I'm glad I pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today. Yes. And like wimpy, everyone quickly learns that you're unreliable. This man is not to be trusted. He will not to live. You know I have a fun,

I like good food, but I have a childish taste in food. Pizza is number one. Right. Two burgers, cheeseburgers, three dunkaroos. Have you had dunkaroos recently? I have not had dunkaroos recently.

They don't hold up. They don't hold up at all? No, well also, if you had them recently, they'd be like super old dunkaroos. Oh, they don't make them anymore. They're done. I think so.

Do they? I don't know. I had them and they weren't that much. Any Australians here? That's not... They're not from Australia. You can't get a dunkaroos, but it has a context on it

where you could win a Turbografx 16. Thanks, guy in the front. That was for him. He had Bonk's adventure. Yeah. Hey, a quick survey out there. Who likes Room Service? Hashtag RoomServeYes.

Hashtag RoomServeYes. Yeah, and who out there avoids RoomService? Hashtag DoomService. Okay, some people on my side, some people on my side. It feels about 60-40. Yeah, I just...

I'm with you on mention in terms of there's not like a great place to eat in a standard hotel room unless you got like a suite. In which case, I mean, there cost is no issue if you're going to afford a suite. But yeah, just eating in bed

is very awkward or on the floor. I guess at that little work station. On the floor? Well, I don't know. I mean, you don't have a lot of options. If you don't want to eat on the bed, you got to eat on the... So you choose instead of like

even the nightstand, you lay on the floor. Okay, the floor would not be my first choice. It would not be my second choice. Well, guys, it becomes simpler if you have two beds because then you have an

eating bed and a sleeping bed. There you go. That's the life hack. That's my hashtag. Eating bed, sleeping bed. Check me out on SoundCloud. Eating bed, sleeping bed, fab and closet.

Yeah! So no one can see. Especially not mommy. Hey, I was in Boston for four weeks. So I get it. Just fapping all over the city. Anywhere she wasn't. Mom, go do errands.

We're in this gap to find your pants. You come to your last ones. I know. And when you're home in Boston, you only masturbate to the scrambled spice channel, right? For nostalgia purposes. Right.

Man, my friends, my friend in middle school, seventh grade, he had, his dad had the spice channel. And that was, we had a day. He had it? He had the spice channel. The unblurred spice channel. Straight up had the spice channel.

Do people remember the spice channel? I think if you're, yeah. So this, up until right now, I didn't know for sure that it could be unblurred. I maybe even thought that's how it was supposed to look. Your friend's dad had the spice channel. He, he like, he paid for it.

He paid for it monthly? Like a horny single dad in a one bedroom had the kid on occasion. And we, this was, this was a weekend when he was with dad and the dad was, dad was not home. So we went to a Jack in the box. And then I,

How appropriate. Very cool, yeah. Instead of watching the free porn, you went to Jack in the box? Hold on, I was all sequence of events. Oh, okay. Went to Jack in the box. And then

I bought a chain wallet. Oh, you were becoming a man. Tell the, Tell the story slower. And then we went back and watched the spice channel. Just like watched it. We, there was no autofocus or anything.

We weren't like, there was no like group jack sesh. We were just sort of like checking, just like taking it in. And it, man, it was wild. Dude, that's, that, in a way, that's weirder. Are there plots to spice channels? Yeah. Cause it's all, it's like,

I don't even think it's, is it hardcore? I feel like it's just soft core. Maybe it's hardcore, but it's like not like hard hardcore. And they, it's like the old school when they had like, it's not hard hardcore. I don't think they had hard hardcore back then. Like it's all changed.

Right. Yeah. It's, it's been, it's gotten very, very deviant in the internet age. The, but yeah. So this was just, this was just like P and V stuff. It was just, Jesus. That's what you called it back then.

Hey, uh, hey Natalie, I'm coming home early. You want to do a little P and V stuff? I'm sore. Maybe some P and B stuff, P and H stuff. I don't know. P and Q stuff? I'll try anything. Puzzle will keep him busy for a while.

Yeah, it was, uh, it, it, it, I mean, I just like that, that just like such a clear day in my head. Like I remember that day clearer than any birthday. It's just like, Wow. What a weird, weird good day. For a 12 year old boy. The first time I had chicken nuggets,

I was spending the night at a friend's house and she had bunk beds and they made me sleep on the top bunk and I was doing great, like really funny bits. And then was like, oh, I'm going to fall off of this. And she was like, these bits don't stop coming. Um, but I wasn't doing a bit. I did fall on my head and got a concussion.

Oh my God. Um, so my, yeah. So my parents had to come pick me up, um, and take me home. And I thought they were mad at me because they were like alarmed. And I was concussed. Um, and they weren't sure if I was concussed. So they were like, let her go to sleep.

Don't do that. Um, so I went to sleep and then I woke up in the middle of the night and I barfed my chicken nuggets all over the bed. And then I was like, hmm, they'll be even more mad if I wake them up now. So I went back to sleep. So in the morning, my mom was like, always wake me up if you barf in your bed

and I learned that lesson that day. And so I always remember that day. Wow. I was, I was reminded when I went back home, uh, one of my friends told me that when we were in high school, like 15, I used to do this to myself and make myself pass out. So, so for people listening, he just squeezed his dick so hard.

I used to do this, I do this, and then I would like fall like a ton of bricks. Chankton's here tonight. Chankton, that was true, right? Aw, I shouldn't have even opened it up to Chankton. Is Chankton conscious? I feel like I haven't... He might have been kicked out.

Chankton hasn't made it through a Doughboy show. Every time he gets so drunk, he's either thrown out or he blacks out. Um, yeah, Mitch was, Mitch was squeezing, I guess his carotid artery, I don't know what you want it is, but you're squeezing like the sides of your neck. Yeah, and I'd fall to the floor like a sack of potatoes and people would think it was funny,

but I would, I couldn't make myself pass out. Yeah, team boys do that, those different sorts of passing out gags. It's real, real bad for you. Wake your mom up if you pass out to make your friends laugh. Maybe, you know, maybe it did some damage on the old noggin, I'm sure, here and there, but whatever. You seem like a man who's never had any sort of brain trauma. Maybe you just, like, maybe you just stopped your development there

and that's why your favorite foods are pizza, burgers, and breast milk. Why do you think I stay in Quincy for four weeks, baby? Yeah, yum, yum. Mommy. Hell yeah, dude. Did your mom listen to these? Yeah, she does sometimes. Well, she told me, she was like,

I heard you're saying very bad things about me on the podcast. I was like, what are you talking about? Now you know. I heard you implying as a 35-year-old man, you come to your childhood home and nurse on me, your widowed mother. And I was like, mom, what are you talking about? 36-year-old man.

I apologize, I'm sorry. I don't fear, you know, my family hearing podcasts because my mom still calls my podcast my blog. Are you still doing your blog? Do you need money? Well, let's get into this week's change. Super duper burgers. All four of us are made in voyage to this chain.

We've never been there before. What's the consensus on super duper burgers? Who likes it? And by booze, who's a super duper burger skeptic? So not a lot. It feels like maybe an 80-20 split. Yeah, it's funny, when you guys, I think the last time you guys were here,

you did Ike sandwiches and Ike actually showed up. Is Mr. Duper here? I'm so sorry, you fully set that up and walked us to it and I just yanked it and it would have been better. My reaction, that was an asshole thing, sorry. No, my reaction was one of excitement because I feel like someone understands me. Oh, okay.

I understand you enough to pick your pocket. Thank you, no, I loved it, it was great. What fun, what fun we're having. Mr. Duper. Ike was gonna name a sandwich after us, wasn't he? Yeah, we never followed up on that. He like texted us more than once and it was like, hey, we can make that sandwich

and we just forgot to tell him. He didn't follow through other pieces, we should find him and beat the shit out of him. I was trying to help you, shut up. There is actually a Mitch sandwich there, it's called Mommy's Num Nums. It's just, it's just a bun soaked in breast milk. So, being in a city where, that's not my home,

you encounter some drivers just getting you around the city. I talked to three of them about Super Duper Burgers, this is my... We could talk about this for a second. You talk to Uber drivers more than you talk to me or anyone else. Why do you open up so much with them? It's bizarre. I like making conversation with strangers. What about with friends?

Or colleagues or anything? Well, I know them already. Um, no, I feel like a lot of the people I know are very interesting and just sort of talk on their own. So I'm just sort of like, okay, I'll listen to this person. I try to be an active listener. I just, sometimes when you're talking with a driver you're just like, oh, I want to know a little bit about this person.

Anyway. Listen, dickhead, I like to learn from drivers too. I'm not saying that like it's bad to talk... You called me out on it. I'm saying friends. You said it was like a character fall. Oh, god damn it. I'm going back to Quincy.

What? This sucks. I have no idea. I like to do it. I like talking to the drivers so that they don't ask me questions. I just ask them questions and they tell me their whole life. And sometimes I get out of the car and they just tell me they're going to miss me.

That's happened frequently. Wow. Oh my god. Jesus Christ. I don't say anything. It's just like not a lot of people let people talk. It's ironic that I do that with strangers because I don't with my friends.

I just talk all the time. When I get in an Uber or a Lyft, I just immediately put on my Oculus Rift. And then you're doing like a rideshare simulation, which is weird. You're talking to another Uber driver. Nick, Nick. Yeah.

You asked three Uber drivers, correct? Or Lyft drivers, I'm sorry. Yes. So I talked to three of them. Doug actually was someone who was a work for Sketchfest and gave me a ride from the airport. And Doug had not heard of... Doug was a lovely man.

We talked a lot. He had not heard of... Doughboys? He had not heard of Doughboys. He had definitely not heard of Doughboys. I feel like half the audience here hasn't heard of Doughboys. We were doing tech earlier and I heard someone on staff go, oh, it's a fast food podcast, I think.

True story. It's his artist. How long's the show? Like 30 minutes? No, like 90 minutes. So like what? So, yeah. So Doug hadn't heard of SuperDuperBurger's Grant

who took us over to the restaurant last night. That's right, yeah. We were engaged in that conversation as well. It wasn't so weird when you were doing it. So Grant had had it and his assessment was pretty good, correct, Mitch? He said pretty good. He said pretty good. He didn't seem thrilled about it.

He didn't seem thrilled but liked it. But also he seemed to hate us in general. Yeah. He wasn't happy that we were talking to him instead of each other. But he's still a lovely man. He recommended the chicken sandwich, which we ended up getting. And then our driver today, and I'm going to mingle the pronunciation of his name because I didn't ask him for it.

I apologize if he listens to the show, which he definitely doesn't. He does not. He definitely does not. Cifula had not heard of it, but he said he likes five guys. That's right. Which he agreed with. We agreed with him, yeah. We were like five guys is good.

And so none of us had been there before. Kind of taking the temperature of the city. It seems like it. People who know about it like it. Maybe our Gaga over it but are on board. We went to the financial district location for dinner last night. And they have a, you know, it's a, it's a like kind of a small storefront with a spacious downstairs seating area, which I was,

which was nice because there were actually some places to dine in. There were Jenga blocks on every table. There were Jenga blocks, which I was weird. Why is Jenga? What is going on? It seems like a place where you could get a picture and just hang out for a long time. And so they want some sort of games. Oh, that makes sense.

Yeah. I think Mitch, no, you dipped them in ranch and ate three of them, right? And we told you after the first one what you were doing. Like, uh, who's going to tell them their Jenga blocks? And you're like, I know their Jenga blocks. You made the crap in part of that hotel stage. Pretty tough. I'll tell you that much.

But you crapped in a perfect little tower. In that downstairs seating area, you mentioned the Jenga. There were also two guys playing Smash Brothers on Switch. They were. And they weren't Doe Boy's listeners. They weren't. And he went and took a picture of them secretively. I did.

I took a creep shot of these two guys. One of many creep shots on your phone. All right. That, I think I, you know, that's definitely going to add tines to my score, just that I went into a place and got to briefly see Incineroar. So I, I'm adding some tines just for the fact that Smash Brothers was in the building. Incineroar has a learning curve, but he's a little, he's a fun guy. He's got some firepower.

Like a heavy smash character. Yeah. Although I am learning some floatier characters like Zero Suit Samus. Now I was. Yeah, tepid reaction. Speaking of floaty characters, a character who can float for some time. Peach I'm hearing is OP. It's kind of dominating some of the early tournaments.

And Daisy, I think they're, they're virtually identical. Yeah. Peach and Daisy, they're kind of clones of each other, but I, I like, Again guys, this has to be 90 minutes. So, you know, you're just going to have to sit through a little bit. I wasn't going to walk off stage and let them do their thing for a minute. I know all this too. Oh, I know.

I have sex. What's that like? Um, I guess it's kind of like Smash Brothers. I don't, I don't know what to really relate to. And you mean with like a full-size body pillow that's got a printed image of your favorite video game character, right? Yeah. Kind of a waifu situation.

Yeah, sure. So, so I got a, I got, I got myself the Super Burger, which is two four ounce patties with super sauce. Not quite sure what's in that super sauce. Scallows into it. And I added some cheese with a 75 cents upcharge. The free stuff includes lettuce, tomato, red onions, and jalapeños. You can also add green onions or lettuce, tomatoes, and red onions by default.

You can also add jalapeños, green onions, and pickles on the side. I just got the jalapeños and they also added avocado for an upcharge. Um, let's, let's, let's talk through what burgers each of you guys got. And then let's assess the burger because that's the whole point of the chain. Is it a super duper burger? Uh, Jomo, what did you get for a burger? Yeah, so they, so I think they're, they're, you know, they're, they're pride and joy is this super duper burger, which is a single patty.

Uh, I just got the single patty. I knew we were going to, you know, be trying a lot of stuff, so I didn't want it to be that much of a gut bomb. So there's a smaller version. It's a four ounce patty. Uh, I got that with cheese, uh, lettuce, uh, hold the tomatoes, and grilled onions. I always love an option to have grilled onions, especially if it's not an upcharge.

I think that's great. And the, uh, super duper sauce on there. So that was my burger. Great. And I have a, a joke about a thing you said at the start. Please do. That, um, is definitely worth it. Uh, single patty.

Uh, what are we talking about? Marge's sister. Uh, okay. So, um, worth it. Worth it. Worth it. Eliza, what did you get burger wise? I think, I think you went protein style in the wrong.

I did. Yeah. I got a lettuce wrapped mini burger. Um, I like to keep, I didn't totally answer before. Like I do like to keep things real simple. Like I don't like, I like a burger, not a cheese burger. Um, I like to be able to like really taste what I'm getting at. Right.

And then later I'll, I'll change it up and get it crazy. Um, but yeah. And I, again, I don't feel like with a, uh, bun it's going to get too much. It's, I'm going to get too heavy. I have like two more shows after that. Right. So yeah. Um, that's what I got.

I got it with all the stuff on it. I wish I'd gotten jalapenos, but I didn't. Story of my life. And Mitch, you didn't want jalapenos, but you got them. But I got them. Yeah. Oh my God. We're like Freaky Friday.

Oh, you would hate that scenario. I don't know. I feel like I would go like, uh, go around like getting all that, uh, like tall man attention, like getting quick service. I don't know about that. The way Frankenstein gets tall man attention. Yeah. He gets a lot of attention.

People running him with fire. All right. Then if you want that, you'll get it. Okay. We'll do it later. I just got, you guys have to pee in the same magic fountain. Right. Well, no, we already do that.

Uh, we'll pee in. Yeah. We'll pee in something later. We'll probably drink it. Um, what is, what, like I drink urine. I drink my friend's urine. Whoa. That's an element of my character.

Oh my God. We're friends. Wow. Relax. He's on his parents are here. Jesus. Um, oh, you know, they're a couple of piss freaks. I am sorry.

I'm so sorry. I didn't. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. There was no reason to say that.

Oh, no. No one liked it. Oh, no. We don't. Oh, no. I'm sorry. I can talk more about Incineroar. Go ahead, Mitch.

Tell us about your burger. I got super duper burger as well. Two patties with cheese, everything on it. But they included jalapenos and grilled onions, which I didn't ask for, which is a separate from the everything on it. So did you get onions booked two ways? Did you get red onions? Yeah.

I believe so. So they thought you could handle it. They thought, I guess they thought I could handle it. I think they fucked up. I think I just got the wrong burger. Yeah. Because you clearly can't handle it. They fucked up.

I could very much, I could have handled, well, whatever. I could have handled something more than that. What? What could you handle, buddy? I'm curious. Can I do my bit that I told you yesterday, too? Yeah, sure. Yeah, please.

If an old-time San Francisco prospector... No, this one. Oh, no. Guys, I heard this bit in the van from the airport. It's real good. If an old-time San Francisco prospector met Goldfinger. I love gold. I love gold.

Gold member. Gold member. You got it a little bit wrong. It's Gold member. What do you call them? Goldfinger. Goldfinger, fuck! I fucked up my bit.

Yeah. I was thinking of the one-hit Wonder Scott punk band. Gold member. I was wondering why people weren't laughing more. They had more than one. You had more than one. Now, Mitch, which was which there? Because that's what I was having trouble with.

First one was a prospector. Okay, all right. Second was Gold member. Right. I don't know. I don't have a Goldfinger person. Can we hear the impression again? Just to...

Yeah! Okay, but that's enough. I thought this burger was good. I like the texture of the meat. I like how juicy it was. I thought the components worked together a nice amount of cheese. You know, it was gooey in a good way. I like the produce seemed fresh.

I mentioned I added avocado, which was a nice element to it. The other jalapenos weren't too, too spicy. As they say on the show, I am something of a heat seeker, and I like something with a little bit of intensity. 20 people just did a shot. Can I ask already, what did you think of the chicken sandwich in that case? The chicken sandwich...

I mean, I thought the chicken sandwich was underwhelming, especially something that Grant shouted out. I would have liked that. You know, just like a grilled chicken sandwich is less interesting texturally than a fried chicken sandwich, so the flavor better really be on point, and I didn't feel like it was. I feel like I've had better chicken breasts at different chains.

We added the jack cheese, which was nice. I also thought that bun was a little too much there. Yeah, the chicken sandwich is not on their burger bun. It's on like an artisanal kind of crusty roll. Yeah, Nick waited to tip Grant until after he tried the chicken burger, and he gave them $0, and here's a tip. Fix your taste buds, you dumb shit.

Isn't that right, Nick? And you reported him for racism? That seemed like an unnecessary to do to Grant. I thought it was pleasantly spicy. Oh, you thought it was spicy? Yeah, a little bit. Just the sauce that was on there? Maybe.

Yeah, I don't know what was doing it. You know what, speaking of a little bit of spice at this place, they have a pickle bar, which you can rave before the meal. Love the pickles. The pickles have a little kick. The pickles have a kick. Pickles are a big hit. I like those pickles a lot.

But here's my issue is that you can't really put those pickles on a burger. They're too big for the burger, right? I didn't talk about that a lot. I was talking about this too much, maybe, because I asked the guy in the front, I said, can I get pickles and burgers? He's like, no, we got the pickle bar, and then I looked up, and there were two things.

Yeah, I got that toot from the dude, too. I also wanted pickles on the burger, and the ones in the bar are chunks, and they are tasty, but not practical to put on the sandwich. They have a good pickle. It's a good pickle. People like pickle, dill pickle slices on a burger. We agree with you.

Why are you mad? This is not directed at you. It's directed at the chain. You'd think they could have some dill pickle chips behind the counter that they could put on a burger if you wanted, because especially because it's listed there as an option. Thank you. It's listed there as an option of one of the things you can get for free,

but you can't put it on the burger. It's a bait and switch. Yeah, I agree. I wouldn't like the option, because the pickles are quite nice. But before we move on to fries, what did you guys think of your burgers? Everyone liked them? I liked my burger.

I do frequently get the lettuce wrap at different establishments. Often it's like a hearty iceberg. This was more of like a, not a romaine. It's like a green leaf. Yeah, like a green leaf. And so it fully fell apart, but I didn't mind. You're supposed to do that with a hamburger. It's supposed to be messy and gross and sloppy and dirty and wet.

So that's what it was. And I liked that there was a smaller option. So I could have gotten another one if I wanted to. I liked it. Yeah, it's interesting that they call those single patty the mini. They're very consciously trying to push you towards the super burger as their default. And, you know, I guess you, you know, at the double burger, this is something my wife Natalie's pointed out,

is that the double burger is maybe the best evaluation of a chain's burger, because it's the right proportion of meat to bun. But it's interesting that they brand it as the mini. I guess five guys is a similar thing. Jordan, you like that burger? I thought it was pretty forgettable. I should have gotten the, you know, maybe I should have gotten the super burger, because I think what I bit into was a sauce bun.

And I like sauce and I like buns. Yes. Hun. And I'm just marinating in that. And so, yeah, it just kind of, the grilled onions were okay. Not a ton of flavor. It just kind of felt like a hot, wet onion. Right.

Yeah, I mean, I could tell that the ingredients were fresh. That comes across in this place. It definitely does. The freshness comes across, but just not a ton of flavor. Right. It was not, it was not super delicious. So, yeah, forgettable. I liked it.

It didn't disagree with me in any way, but I am struggling to recall the taste right now. Right. Hmm. Mitch, for the way that burger made me feel, it should have tasted so much better. Like it should have been like a, like I felt like shit afterwards.

Right. And it should have been so much more, it should have, like, I didn't think the bun was great. I didn't think the lettuce was great. Like, I know that it was fancier lettuce, but I didn't, and then like, I don't know. I'm with Jordan. I thought it wasn't as memorable as,

I liked, I like a five guys burger better. True. Wow. Wow. I'm sorry. So let's move on to, let's move on to the fries. I mean, I liked it. All right.

I'm wondering if they, if these burgers have overwhelming buns and they might, that might be contributing to it. Yes. I think the, I think the double, again, Denali's observation, I think the double burger is the better proportion for this one. And I think that's what they're trying to steer you towards on the menu.

We got, we got some fries. We got French fries and we got garlic fries. Garlic fries come with fresh garlic and six month aged cheddar. I thought those garlic fries were real nice and that they had some good flavor to them. We also got the three dip, the dip trio, Super Sauce, Housemate Mayo and Chipotle. I, boy, I, when I saw that on the menu,

when I saw that, you know, for about 50 extra, you can get three dips. Right. I fell in love a little bit. That's such a great idea. Right. I think that more places should have some sort of, you know, dip bouquet they lay out for you.

You love a dip. I love to dip. Love it. I, I, I, maybe the dips themselves, I have some, some issues with, but as far as a thing on the menu, I was so thrilled to see it up there. Right.

And what did you guys think of the fries and the associate dip and sauce? In a way, the dip and sauces, we had a little bit of a, of a dip debacle. They, they forgot them. And so we had to go back up there and make a separate run. Same thing with my salad dressing.

I think that I like the, the dip selection, but I think that should be a gift to the people at that point. I don't think it should, it should be complimentary. I agree. I think you should have like a dip bar and you should be like, what, what opulence? You know, and you get to pick whatever you want. Yeah.

Also the three they gave us, there was one spicy one and the other two. We talked about this. They were mayonnaise. Yeah. The dips are very similar. I think they have the same base. I think if we had been some place

where we'd seen the sign of like what they were, we could have been like, oh, I could taste that. All right. But like not really knowing, it was just stuff. So I was a little underwhelmed by the dipping sauces and I'm a big sauce fan. I'm a real sauce head. But which is why I got the regular fries.

So you can like really taste them. I thought the fries were good. I like the consistency. Nice outside crisp, inside fluff. The garlic fries, however, I was very underwhelmed by. Oh boy. The cheese was just straight up alive. It wasn't melted at all.

It could have been better melted yet. It wasn't melted. No. Then the garlic was also alive. Like it was, that's too spicy. That's a painful garlic situation. You want it all a little heated, a little softened, a little ready to go.

You know what I'm saying? See, I love garlic. It's the hashtag reverse vampire. And the, so I thought all the garlic bite to it was great. But I agree with the cheese. They just threw it on a hot fry. I mean, I'm not across the board anti-hot garlic. But just in this one, I was like, yeah,

it feels like someone who just heard of garlic fries. I was like, I guess this is it. It was straight up garlic. I was not worried about a dust till dawn situation breaking out in there. Is that something you worry about? That feels like a hope for something. I'm actually nervous about it right now.

I mean, I know what you guys mean. I can see myself in a mirror hashtag reverse vampire. Thank you. I was a little underwhelmed by the garlic fries, but I thought the fries themselves were good. The dipping sauces were very similar. Yeah. And a buck fifty, I mean, come on.

Yeah. Right? Yeah. They're all in the same world. Where's the punchy one? You know, where's the acidic one? There was no acidic one. Yeah.

We noticed there was a barbecue or a blue cheese or something like that. Honey mustard. I love a honey mustard option. So yeah, maybe just a little more, a little more variety in those dipping sauces would have been great. A dollar fifty is too much.

It's a little absurd. Give me a frutopia instead. To dip your fries. Have you had one of those recently? I'm just kidding. And then I also got the super salad, which was just lettuce, tomato, cucumber, red onion, and Caesar dressing.

I mentioned they also forgot that. I mean, it was just a dull, like it wasn't interesting. I guess it... What was your issues with it? I just feel like they were just throwing the burger produce into a plastic bowl that you can mix up with some Caesar dressing.

Yeah, but how was the temperature? The temperature was fine. It was nice and cool, like I like it. Like the produce had been refrigerated. That's how I prefer my salads. I did nearly spill the salad as someone who's known for spilling things, as I was walking down the stairs.

It was Mr. Bean-esque, as you were going down the stairs. There wasn't a top on that? So they put it... There was a top, but they set it on... The top was on the other side. I maintain this was not my fault.

They put the underside of the top underneath the bowl, and it was a little slick, so as I was going down the stairs, it sort of tilted over, and some of the produce spilled out. You dove and tried to catch it, your head got stuck in a turkey.

Yeah, but I just... You guys had some bites of that. There was nothing to it, right? I guess if you were eating low carb and you wanted to avoid the bun, and you wanted a side that wasn't fries, I guess that's an option, but I don't know, it's kind of boring.

Yeah, I like it when a burger place gives you the option if you're trying to avoid a gut bomb to have a salad on the side. Six bucks, it's a little... It's twice the cost of the fries, so you can really feel like a substitute. Yeah, it's fine.

We talked about this a little bit last night. I love a salad. I don't go to a burger place for a salad. I don't need your... I don't need your half-hearted burger place salad. Do what you do well and trust that I will know where to go find a salad when I want one.

Because you're right, it's always... It's just toppings in a bowl. I'm not nine, I can tell. Yeah. I think it's main value is it's like if it's a work lunch, and it's like, well, I don't want to eat unhealthy, but this is the healthy option

at this place that we're going for work, or if you're going there with a group or with your family or whatever. Your salad dressing tasted almost like the dip's. It tasted like the dip's. I'm sure it was Thousand Island. I'm sure the secret sauce, the salad dressing, whatever it was I drank, it was all...

I actually look back and they just have a pipe that says Sauce Pipe, and they put it in different things, and Mitch, you fit your whole mouth around. It's just impressive. Let's talk bevs. We got a fresh lemonade made with brown sugar, and we got three super shakes.

Cookies and cream, fresh strawberries, and double chocolate. They have a chocolate regular shake. We got the double chocolate super shake. That was your order, Jordan. What did you think of it? Yeah, boy, I, you know, milkshake, it's got to be one of my favorite indulgences.

I think Carl's Jr. milkshake is basically the most delicious food that is on the earth. Delightful. Yeah, I, yeah, so I like, you know, I like that this had a little crunch to it. It had a little malt character. Maybe some sort of kind of candy crunch on top. So fun consistency.

You know, let me down a little bit in the flavor department. It was not super rich. It tasted, you know, kind of very, I don't know if they make them fresh. It tasted a little machini to me. Right. And I don't hate machini,

but I think if you're at a place like this that is, you know, supposed to be a little bit more upscale, I think I was expecting something different. So it's, you know, some tasty sips, some nice crunch, but I didn't finish it, which is rare for me. I usually will just wolf down that shake

like a madman. Yeah. I had about half of it. Super duper chocolatey, kind of a malted character to it. Yeah. Of these selections, I like the fresh strawberry one the most.

I thought that had the best flavor. The cookies and cream, I thought, why would you think that cookies and cream shake, Mitch? It was all right. Yeah, I liked it. I liked it okay. I thought the cookies and cream

was maybe my favorite of the bunch. Right. The strawberry, they were all, they were all, they were all okay. They were all okay. I like the chocolate one. The strawberry one to me tasted

too vanilla-y. It was like vanilla with strawberry in it. Right. I wanted, I want to like go all the way with the strawberry. Don't, don't hold back on me. Yeah. And I felt like the texture thing with the chocolate one

was like, like a frozen crunchiness, which I kind of, I've enjoyed. Yeah, yeah. Am I crazy? I've been like icy, kind of like an icy. It might have been a little lice in there.

It might have been a little lice in there. I like a little iciness. Yeah. I will say about, I thought the shakes were fine. Super, again, you know, it's hubris to say that, but they were,

they were shakes all right. We had the, yes. I did like they were, was that a Pilsner glass? The pill, yeah. It's nice that they were served in a beer glass. Yeah.

That's fun. It was like, oh, fancy. If I was a kid, I would be like, oh, look at me. Right. But I'm not. I'm drunk with dad. So take that fucking salad off the menu.

Yeah. I like the lemonade too, by the way. Lemonade was good. Maybe it's psychosomatic, knowing that there was brown sugar in it, but I felt like I could taste that character to it in the sense. Yeah.

How did you, how did you feel about the size of that lemon? I don't need a lemonade that big. That feels like a lot of lemonade. It was a lot of lemonade. Yeah. Yeah. It's like a pint glass full of lemonade.

But the brown sugar was helpful. I saw Mick Jagger was in line behind me. Okay. All right. Get up. Get up. Get up. Get up.

Get up. Get up. Get up. Get up. Get up. Get up. Get up. Really?

I tried to lead a day at America. Really? Mick Jagger was in line? I didn't notice him. He's a big celebrity. I would think I would notice. He got one of those lemenades? He took off!

He hit the road. Oh, interesting. So they have to go. Can I- Oh god! Hey, Mitch, is your, is your favorite Rolling Stone song, Jumping Jack off?

Sounds hard. Yeah. More trouble than it's worth, honestly. Yeah. Decent lemonade. So, you know, a lot of people were, people were talking up this place. It was the biggest vote-getter when we put it out

to the, the listeners on social media for which place we should, we should review. And I was like, you know, I'm trying to figure out what it is about this place. So this morning I went back for breakfast. Wow! Wow, he didn't tell me this. What a fucking dork.

Teacher, I did extra homework. You fucking loser. Where would you be without his commitment? It's this, I wanted to say that artist, this is an insult to every artist ever. Mitch is holding up his sketch-fest badge which says artist on it and his name. Yeah, I'm just saying it's an insult.

We shouldn't have a thing that says artist on it. This show sucks. I agree. It's not artistry. Um, so I got the breakfast combo, organic egg sandwich with sausage, came on a little English muffin, had some cheese on that,

some of the same cheese from the burger. This was the best thing I had at this place. Of all the things. This breakfast sandwich was great. The sausage, I'm guessing it's a chicken sausage because it didn't quite have the texture, the flavor of pork. Maybe I'm wrong.

Maybe it's just a different character to that meat. But it was really good. It was really well composed. Really toothsome. Very much enjoyed it. The hash browns were fine. The coffee was fine. You know what?

The coffee was on par with the free lobby coffee that I got from the hotel. What kind of hash brown were we talking about? The patty? We talking little guys? It was a little triforce. It was like a little triangle. That's what that's kind.

Yeah, that's like Arby's. It was good. It was exactly like the Arby's one. I love Arby's potato products. Yeah. And it was on par with Arby's. Thank you. It was good.

You have to eat them before they got stolen by Gannon. I also got the three mini donuts for $2. You know, the reason to get the donuts is if you don't want an egg thing, because those are really your only options there. I thought they were good. They're small. They're not hot, which is a thing.

Not getting warm donuts, getting just sort of like room temp to cold donuts is not particularly exciting. But the cinnamon sugar, vanilla frosted, chocolate frosted, I'd kind of rank them in that order for undunked. For Dunkin', Dunkin' them in the coffee, I'd put the vanilla frosted into pole position

and bump down the cinnamon sugar. Good. Those were all cake donuts? They're all cake donuts, yeah. They were good. Why did you do this? This podcast? Yeah.

Good question. I think a lot of people would ask. Mitch is flummoxed by the idea of anyone doing any work for something. I would have gone with you. What time was it at? I got at like 8 a.m. Oh, no.

No, I was like, I was like, okay, my morning routine, I got to go on a walk. I got to get coffee. Well, I'll just do that, but then also go to this place where we're discussing on the podcast.

So it kind of worked out. Well, speaking of walks, we ate our big meal. Yes. And then we walked to Tonga Hut. And I jokingly was like, oh, this is where I'm going to have a heart attack after eating a fucking super-duper burger

and walking up a hill. And then I think it almost happened. Right. We were walking up that big hill and I was like, holy shit, and I could just taste fucking cookies and cream shake in my throat.

That's one of the warning signs. It's like a painful right arm and cookies and cream in your throat. Yeah, I don't know how, I mean, maybe he was just tracking our location, but you song pulled up with the paddles,

just like as a precaution. It's like, wow, man, he's going above and beyond. It's part of his job now. He's got the paddles for me. But yeah, I mean, it's a very hilly city. I like it.

I enjoyed my hilly walk this morning and it's a good place to walk around. Let's get to our final thoughts on SuperDuper Burgers because we're running out of time here. So we'll each go around. We'll give it this a rating and give it a rate,

sorry, we'll give it our final thoughts and give this a rating from zero to five forks. Jordan Morris, to my left, we'll begin with you. Yeah, so yes, I love burgers and this particular kind of burger,

this is a crowded space. This is, you know, it's kind of price points on par with Shake Shack, five guys, these kinds of places. And I like those places a lot. And yeah, and I was looking forward to this and yeah, everything was tasty.

I thought that this place had a great fun neighborhood atmosphere. The fellas playing Smash had a lot of people with kids, but a lot of people, you know, who were there with friends hanging out, you can get some brews, excuse me, brew dogs,

you can get some brew dogs, you can get wine, you can spike the shakes, which I guess we didn't do. Maybe that might have been fun to try and spike the shakes. I wonder what they get spiked with. I don't know,

probably just that same fucking dip. They just hold it under the sauce pipe and gloop in a little bit of slightly spicy mayonnaise. Adderall, it's Adderall. Adderall. I just crushed up a little Adderall. So yeah, so yeah,

so there was a kind of a fun atmosphere I liked being there. Of course I liked eating with three of my favorite funny people in the entire world. That's nice. So flattered to be there. And you guys, you know,

paid with a no-boys credit card, which I believe you should. But yeah, but nothing blew me away. And if you're going to do that kind of calorie bomb, and if you're going to do that kind of money bomb, you should really, really just

lap something up. And there was, again, a couple of things we didn't, I didn't try. I think people love the soft serve. People like the dip cones a lot. We didn't try that. I did not have the breakfast sandwich,

but I do think I got a sense of what this place was. Right. And I think it is just kind of whatever. Two forks. Two forks. Wow.

Oh, man. Oh, shit. Eliza Skinner, your review, your rating. I thought it was fine. Who wants to be fine though, right? Wow. You want to be...

Foin. Yeah, exactly. You want to be fine. As I said, I liked that my burger was, that it wasn't too much, that it felt fresh. The regular fries were good.

But, and I agree, the ambiance for someone else would have been great. And I like the pickles. But, and I was also worried about those dipped cones. I was like,

we probably really fucked up bad. I just feel like such a psycho when I'm eating an ice cream cone. Yeah. Right. Adults, adults eat ice cream from cups. Not me.

Malm, malm, malm. That's obscene. Mitch Pantamime licked a ice cream cone. Looked very graphic. It looks like also he was cupping its balls. Which is, I'd consider it.

Yeah. Consider it though, you know? It's like sort of a twisty thing. Yeah, so, so, there's nothing like wrong with it, but there is also nothing super inspired by it, inspired about it,

so I'll give it two and a half. Two and a half. Wow. All right, the Spoon Man, Mike Mitchell. Your thoughts? Well, besides the whole heart attack thing, which wasn't great. The place is called Super Dupre Burger.

Yeah. And it's more like Super burger. It's not super duper, it's not a super duper burger, right? Like it's, it's, it's, thank you.

Jankton? It might have been Jankton. But, my thing is that when we went, the birthday boys, my sketch group, all went to House of Nank King.

And I was so jealous that they were eating that food there. And I wish that I could have brought my funny friends, Eliza and Jordan, over to House of Nank King with me. All right, I was almost about to be upset. No.

It's like that whole time you wanted to be with them. No, the three of us could go over there together. What's Wyger doing in this situation? He's playing Jenga at the table by himself. I think he would have enjoyed that. He would have.

He went by himself the next day. And then, and then, and when I think about Sam's burgers, up on the hill there, Jordan, which we've had, there's so, there's so much better.

Like the way I, I'll just say, and I know this is your view. That's an individual location. That's one place versus a chain that's trying to scale up to cover the entire bear. But go ahead.

I get it. But like five, a five guys burger for the, the way that I felt, a five guys burger tastes better than super duper burger. There's not that, that juiciness.

The patties just leave me wanting more. I can't, I can't help it. But I did think overall, it was still decent. It's not a bad place. I'm going to go three and a quarter forks. Three and a quarter forks

from Mike Mitchell. Sorry. I wish I liked it more. Fuck. Five forks. So is this like, do you guys have like a, like a lift rating

where if it's like less than five, your assholes? Yes. Okay. It's, well, this feels like, this really feels like we're letting people down.

I think so. I mean, it's good we saved the rating for the end of the show to just really mute the energy of the locals. What are you people like? Huey Lewis?

He's from here, right? Journey? We like journey? Yeah. Two and a half forks for Huey Lewis. Yes. Boom.

Yeah. Sorry you paid for a show when we're all shitting on your local institution. So, as someone who has the nickname of the burger boy, I under,

you know, I love burgers and I tried to take it seriously when I'm evaluating a burger chain. I think super duper burgers is good. I don't know how much of our view is colored by the fact that

it's calling itself super duper burgers. And it's like, it's its own height, man. Wait, hold on a second. Because you're the burger boy, you try to take burger views very seriously?

Yes, I do. I gave you that nickname. And he respects it. Yes, I'm respecting it. I'm honoring your contribution. Can't we just have one Christmas where we get along? So,

you know, I thought the burger was good. It's a lot. It's a lot of money. And I think it's also too, it's like, is this a place, if I lived here,

yeah, I would go here. If I, someone who doesn't live here, I don't know if it's a place I'd go out of my way to go to. But I think it's very, I think it's, it does what it does well.

I like the breakfast sandwich a lot. I think that would be a, you know, that's absolutely a decent option. And hey, that was a pretty good value. That was $7.75 for that combo, which is,

which is not terrible, only a little bit more than what you'd get at a comparable bigger fast food chain. For that reason, I think I'm going to hand-holding club with my,

with my buddy Mitch here. I'm going to say three forks. In fact, I'll go up to a full time. Three, three for, wait, that's also the three,

that is a quarter. Yeah, three and a quarter forks. Yeah, we're the same. Yeah. We're the same. We're the same. We are the same.

We're the same. We're the same. Guys, we're running tight on time here. That was our review of Super Duber Burgers. It's time for a segment. Regular listeners of the show

know about the Weigert Challenge in which Mitch and our guests must guess a mystery drink. Well, today the tables are churned, as I will not be the judge, but a contestant. Please welcome our producer,

You Song Lu, for the first ever You Song Challenge. You Song Lu. I bet you got a beverage, don't you? You Song Lu. I bet we'll guess these beverages for you.

Won't we? Won't we? Okay. Well, that was adorable. I made it up for your parents with this. You Song, how are you feeling today?

I'm good. I didn't think the show would be so dirty. Oh, no. Have you not listened to us? I was like, there's a low chance. Earlier today, I was like,

I remember that when I was younger, my parents wanted me to be like a doctor or a lawyer. So, I hope they're really proud of me today for choosing this mystery beverage. I'd like to see a doctor pick out a great mystery beverage.

Yeah. And speaking of which, we've got like this red semi-translucent liquid in these cups here. It looks punchy. You know, on site alone,

I would say this is maybe like a Hawaiian punch, but let's have a little talk. This is also a use of chance to kill us. That's true. Yeah,

wait, make him pick a drink. Feels very Jonestown. Everyone has your shroud on. Smells like it's got like a berry element, but maybe like a tropical character. Whoa. Jesus.

Oh, wow. That's a, that's a crayon. There's a crayon in there somewhere. Crayon? Yes. It's very strong. It's got quite a scent.

You can smell it from the table. Crayon, maybe a little citrus. Definitely a mix. Definitely has something punch, but it not Hawaiian punch. It does not have that level of punch. No, not at all. No.

You know what I'm going to say, maybe this is just because it's in my head from the remark Mitch had made earlier, but I think this is frutopia. I think this is frutopia. Wow. I think this is frutopia,

fruit punch. I don't even know if it is available anymore. Maybe he got it out of a warehouse somewhere. To me, it tastes a little more like actual juice than that.

Right. But it could be wrong. My guess is that Yu Song is not going to know what frutopia is because he was born in like 2007. Yu Song's 12?

Frutopia is the juice they made out of Zootopia, right? Yes. No. Yeah, that's the big reveal. Yu Song's been listening to the podcast and learning.

That's how jokes work. Okay, I have this thing because it's like the first time we're doing the Yu Song challenge. And so this is now canon. This is the part where I give you a bad hint

about the beverage. Whoa. An interesting twist. I want to make a guess beforehand. Wait, wait, wait. Before you guess. This is Yu Song's clue song.

Wow. You're learning too much from Bliger. All right. And just remember, this is a bad hint. Don't stand too close to the coast.

Otherwise, the moisture could get on your skin. Okay. I'm going to say ocean spray. Fuck. It's definitely an ocean spray. It's an ocean spray thing.

Yu Song. It's fucking ocean spray. It's ocean spray. You fucked up so bad. Oh, boy. So it's a crayon strawberry. That's going to be my guess. I'm going to say crayon punch

ocean spray. I'm going to say it's, I'm tasting the citrus. I'm going to say crayon orange. And Jordan is sticking with Zootopia. Yes. That's probably what it is.

Okay. Here we go. Mitch. You have one that Yu Song challenged. Wow. It's an ocean spray crayon pineapple. Crayon pineapple. Wow.

Which is pretty fun. And it is fun. Yeah. Yu Song, what was that hint? You got it from it. We used to say it. Yeah.

It's a good hint. No. I got it. That's the issue. Well, I'll drink the rest of it today. It is good. Good job, Yu Song.

Yeah. That was a good pick. Give it up for Yu Song. Yu Song Liu, everyone. Thank you so much. Yeah. Once you know what it is, it absolutely tastes like cranberry.

It absolutely does. Mitch, you dominate the wiker challenge. And now even when I go against you, you dominate the Yu Song challenge. So congratulations. Thank you. Your palette is very good.

All right. So just like a restaurant, I have all your feedback. Let's open up the feedback. So we're running out of time. We'll take three audience questions real quick. There's an audience mic. Oh, it's right over there.

Yu Song is pointing to it. It's in the aisle. If anyone wants to line up, anyone's got a good query. Come on up. Tell us your name. Tell us your question. And we will answer a trio.

We got three people. We got three people up there, like our trio of dip and sauces. Hopefully, unlike that dip and sauce trio, their questions go in different directions. So we have some different topics to explore. Whoever gets the best question gets the rest of this bottle.

Oh, no. I forgot. I was sitting like two feet away from the microphone. That's okay. I don't feel like I earned it. But anyways, I have two things. I got a brag and a question. The brag is that I was your fifth ever

Patreon subscriber. Wow. Yeah. Wow. Wait, do you know what a brag is? I don't know what category it falls under, but here's my question. So I work on a Filipino-Mexican food truck,

and I myself am Filipino-Persian. So in terms of food fusions, are there any kind of ethnic food fusions that you think would go good together? Like Indian food as a grilled cheese, or like, I don't know. You answer, please. Tell us the name of your truck

so you can show it. Oh, it's Senior Seasig, but they're doing fine. Wow. Wow. People love it. Wow. Holy mackerel.

We should have reviewed that truck. Yeah. People love it. Yeah, that sounds great. Well, we'll talk about cultural mash-ups real quick as four whites. No, I actually... What is food with Welsh food?

Irish and English food for me. No, I really like... That sounds delicious, the Mexican Filipino food mash-up. I really... You know, the one that works really well, and this was kind of one of the progenitors of it, is the Kogi truck in L.A.

They got the Korean and Mexican mash-up. That seems to work pretty well. She might have just been bitten by a spider or something. She's never heard of the truck. There was a scorpion in her boot. Anything come to mind for you guys? Anything fun you've had? Anything you'd like to experience?

I don't know if this totally counts, but I think that nachos should be a base for all cultures. Oh, hell yeah. Thank you. Yeah, yeah. So, like, put down your tortilla chips, put together a curry nacho. What a delight. A Reuben nacho.

Come on, why didn't you think of that? Whatever your culture you're exploring, give it to me in nacho form. And I think that counts as fusion. That's great. That's a great idea, sir. I don't know, I'm not going to come up with a new one on the spot here, but Tua Familia in L.A. is French in Mexican food. And then, yeah, like a Mexican-Asian fusion place.

I don't know, I can't think of anything else. Help me out here. Yeah, I mean, I had… Travel. I had tikka masala fries recently. And it fucking ruled. That's good. Yeah, Indian is really, really versatile.

Kind of like a poutine? Yeah, it was. So that's Canadian, French, and Indian. Sure, yeah, yeah. So yeah, I think Indian food is so delicious and versatile. You can slop it on any kind of drunk food and it'll be fucking great. I'm with you. All right.

What's your name? What's your question? I'm Esme. And I was wondering, since you guys were talking a lot about hotel service, what is the best room service food you've ever had? The best room… Oh, we've ever had. Wow.

Like I said, I don't get room service. But yesterday, I walked to a Japanese market and I bought two bananas. And this morning, I ate one of those bananas after it ripened overnight. Wow. So I'm going to say that banana. That's my answer. That story will be interesting. Wow.

So I'm going to say that banana. That's my answer. That story will be an entire chapter in your memoir. Natalie, that's the story you tell Natalie when you come back from San Francisco. How was San Francisco? I watched a banana ripen overnight. I ate it. And I saw three trains.

All right. P and the V. The best room service I've ever had was at Disney World. That's what I'll say. That's what I'll say. Wow. Disney World room service is great. Yeah.

Well, when I was a kid, I went with my mom and we got like Disney World breakfast. And as I said, was not allowed to get room service as a kid. So I was like, what? I didn't have a queen. Because they also give you a Mickey Mouse waffle. Oh, how fun. And Mickey comes in and he says, hi. Mickey came to your room.

He came to my room. Did you break your leg? Why would he do that? He came to my room. He said, sit down on the floor. I'm going to feed you. Okay. None of that happens.

Oh, no, Mitch. Oh, boy. This is a recovered memory. This was a drifter with a high voice. Jordan, and we talked about this a little bit earlier, but any favorite room service meals you've ever had? Fuck. And I've had that Mickey Mouse waffle.

Absolutely. Yes. It's a lot of fun. It's a great memory. Great question. Right there. Hey, guys. Anthony from New Jersey.

Hi, Anthony. Anthony, what's happening? My question is, if you guys could have any fictional character on the podcast, where would you take them on? And specifically with an eye toward Smash Ultimate characters. Okay. I'm not going to restrict the entire panel to Smash Ultimate characters. But if I'm evaluating them, boy, I feel like you want to just get all, get the head

babies in there. I think you want to get King K. Rool. I think you want to get in Bowser, and I think you want to get Wario. Why? Why do you want all the big guys there? They're monsters. But I feel like they're, they like to eat, and I feel like you would get like a good, like evaluation of, I don't, I don't, I'd like to hear their input.

And I take them to a, I think I'd take them to like the hometown buffet or the Golden Corral and just sort of watch them go to town, see how many steam trays of food they could consume. You, King K. Rool Bowser. Yeah. All at the Golden Corral together. And King Dedede. Yeah.

Please, please someone make fan art of that. And I want it framed on someone's wall. And just, we want to see the dicks too. Assume we want you to draw the dicks. That's what the internet's for. Draw the dicks. You guys got any fictional picks in any place you'd like to take them? Same answer, but with Meta Knight.

Um, obviously the, uh, the Vampire Listot, um, and we would get Little Caesar's Pizza. He would watch me eat my last meal, and then turn me. Wow. I can't top that answer. That rules. I would also take Princess Peach on a date. Everyone would call 9-1-1. Oh no, Bowser's at it again.

I think a lot of people call 9-1-1 on Bowser. I think that's what happens in the Mushroom Kingdom. Well, they are sleeping on the job. Yeah, Princess Peach on a date somewhere. Where? That was part of the question. I don't know where you take Princess Peach on a date. Pizzeria Regina and Quincy.

That's his answer for every bit. In Boston. Oh, I'm sorry. In Boston. I would take her to another fictional place, The Peach Pit. Oh. From 9-0-2-1-0. After Dark or the original?

After Dark. Yeah. You're getting nasty. Guys, that's going to be it for this episode. Give it up for Eliza Skinner. Make some noise for Jordan Morris. Our producer, Jordan Morris. Until next time, for the Spoonman, Mike Mitchell, I'm Nick Weigher.

Happy eating. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Hey, Spoon Nation, hey, Burger Brigade. Catch Doe Boys Live in your town, provided you live in one of the following areas.
