What's up everybody? I've joined Wiggs for the intro, so you know what that means? Sags on strike two wise. That's right. Sags after the actors union has joined WGA, the writers union on the picket lines, like the elves marching into Helms deep to form a unified front against the

world threatening menace that is the AMPTP. So the elves are actors in this scenario. Makes out. Okay. And she and writers are humans. Yeah. Cause like you look at like the humans that are a in this scenario. Think so. Okay. And writers are humans. Yeah, because like you look at like the humans that are a Helm's deep, those are more writer types. The actors are like these live, beautiful, you know, picturesque creatures. See, am I a dwarf that just kind of got mixed up in it?

It's the dwarves, right? You're gimli with reverse force perspective. So basically what's happening is that, and you can find all this information online, this is all readily available, but part of the strike guidelines are involved promoting any sort of projects and having restrictions on that, making it so that we are not using social media and you're not using things like podcast appearances to try to promote upcoming or ongoing work.

And we're giving that context because this episode that we recorded was first, I mean was recorded back in June before we went on a recent tour. Yes, and it's all of these guidelines. It was a part, I was, was recorded back in June before we went on a recent tour. Yes, and it's also, it dates all of these guidelines. It was a part, I'm originally part of a theme month which we're no longer doing. Yeah, we're not doing that.

Yeah, you know, a complicated time lags as an actor and having a project that's coming out. And so it's complicated, we were excited to promote it, but this is the right thing to do with. 100%. We're, I am a proud union member and we're gonna play by the rules and we're gonna, we're not gonna enforce the rules, but we're gonna, we're gonna do exactly what we need to do.

And we're gonna be picking it every day. I'm gonna be spending more time with you, I guess. We're gonna have a great time. It's gonna be great. I mean, but- What I say, union, you say power. Union. Power.

So- It is very much like Nelson and Martin on the line together. Just to talk about this a little bit. Yes. I think that like Sag After has this rule right now, the strike rule where you're not, you know, we're not promoting anything. And you know, that includes a list actors

going on talk shows to promote their big theatrical movies, but it also applies to smaller things. And you know, people using their own social media accounts and their own existing platforms. But I think that speaks to something that has become an expectation of working actors, working writers, working people in Hollywood in general, which is like, you have to use.

There's an expectation that you are going to use your own platform that you created, that you curated to boost work that you were hired for. And so- willingly and happily do that. Yes, I think you're 100%. Yeah, besides a million other issues, that is another. Besides a million other issues,

that is one thing that has just become another task that's uncompensated, and that's just an expectation of you for working in an industry. Why is your 100% wags? You're a 100% wags? Just a centwags? Oh yeah, I am.

Why is your 100% wags? Ha ha ha. I, you're right. I mean, over the last look, we've been lucky to have a podcast in over the last. It saved our asses. It's like during the pandemic. 15 years, I'm an actor who works decently well.

I think that like, you know, some of my other actor friends would be like, you work enough, you know, you work enough, you get, I've strung some things together. I've never been able to make a living off of what I've, off of my acting. Yeah. Ever, ever, ever.

That's just, it just, it never happened. There was maybe one season, the third season of a show where I may be made like a living wage, but besides that, it just is not the case. I would have to have other jobs. And in my life, the other job, I don't consider it a job because it's insulting to people who work jobs is no voice. And we're lucky, we're very lucky to have that.

Very fortunate to have this. This podcast has paid better than any work I've ever had in the industry. And so we're extremely lucky to have it. But that doesn't mean that, you know, it doesn't mean that these things should change for actually working class actors and people are just not making their fair share. It's insane. It's 100% true. And that's well said, Mitch. And I think that, you know, you, you know,

y'all, it referring to, to sag after, but also the other entertainment unions and all the unions have been standing with WGA through the 70 plus days as of the sepusote release. So I think it'll be 80 days of being on the picket lines. And we're going to stand with y'all because it's all like that's what this is right now is that we have each other. We have that solidarity and the cross union solidarity from SAG after has been wonderful. We're going to repay that and we're going to stand with you because SAG after has been wonderful. We're gonna repay that. And we're going to stand with you because SAG after actors absolutely deserve

what they get for bringing the words that we write to life. I think there's been a talk of like, you know, like when we're talking about things like this and, yeah, you know, it's like, we can't afford to survive in this with the payment that we get. And I think that you have Southern Bell. We can't, we can't afford to survive. And then I think that you a Southern bell. We can't

We can't afford to survive and then I think people are like oh like that's crazy You can you like and I actually with some working class writers and actors. It's the truth It just is the truth. Yeah, I'm not saying it's that for me and Nick because we're lucky But with a lot of working it's it's you need other jobs you need you need like people who drive ubers and The gig economy. I know it's the same thing across the board and basically every job field in the world now, unfortunately, but here it's the truth and people who are making the most money

are taking the most money and giving just little nibblets to the people who do all the work and the creative. So it's bad, it sucks. Fundamentally, this podcast is, it's grown to a good size scope for us very luckily, but this is a side hustle for us. In an actor, I'm a writer, that's our main discipline. We started this other thing.

Hey, you know, you never know what that's like. We don't like fast food. We don't like fast food. We don't like talking into microphones. We both hate fries. We both hate fries. I know that I said about Nick, we both hate him. It's the, but it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it would, you know, 20 years ago, 25 years ago,

it was completely different. Yes. Because, you know, they actually paid out money to people who worked for it. And that just doesn't happen anymore. The streaming has, I've been talking about this forever wise. I'm talking about, I hated Netflix the entire time you've known me. When I told you some numbers I made from, from some of the streaming companies, you've gotten upset. And it's just the way it is. It's the way it's been forever. You like hated Netflix from day one, and I was like, dude, but how's the cards, man? That shows so good. I love that one actor. What's his name?

I was like, you know what his name is. But yeah, it's, look, I feel like I'm not stringing my words together well here, but. No, you're doing great. We'll talk about this a lot more. We're gonna talk about this a lot. It's gonna be an ongoing thing. We'll be out there for as long as we need to be

to get to the old book. We'll bring in Adam. That's what we an ongoing thing. We'll be out there for as long as we need to be to get to the deal. That's why we thought we'd bring in Adam. That's what we thought Adam was. Appropriate to have in the background. We think to have here. And an incredible union member, someone who's been on the front line. That's true, we were talking a lot of.

I asked him today, I was asking questions about what we can do and what we can't do. Which, he showed you like an 11 minute video he'd make, which was really informative. It was extremely informative. And then when the video was done, I was like, I looked at his hair and I was like, I said, higher. But yeah, we're still figuring things out.

So I mean, it's literally starting tomorrow. As of this recording, you're recording this a little bit of an advance to the, where, you know, a lot of this has just happened. That's when we happen to be on the studio. But I want to give everyone a couple of URLs to check out. First off, sag after a strike.org. There you can find out all the information on ongoing pickets, ways you can just get informed

and potentially help out. And then, hey, if you're in the LA or New York area and there will be pickets everywhere, is there have been in WGA because they're also going to be, you know, some location dependent pickets. You can, you can just join a picket. You don't need to be a member of a union of these unions or any union to come by as a picketer and support everyone who's out there. And I know some dope boys listeners have already done that.

I've seen some of y'all on the line. So we appreciate that. The other one I want to shout out is tonight, can I give one to? Yeah, birdfuck.com. Take a birdfuck.com. That's just a great site. That's just a good website.

And then also really help with the strike at all, but it's a good website. But the other one is entertainmentcommunity.org. This is a place where you can, if people are looking to help out with financial assistance for anyone who's potentially pushed out of work, this is for crew members, because it doesn't just affect actors and writers

when everything gets shut down. Hair and makeup artists, gaffers, grips, teamsters, drivers, like everyone who works on a set, caterers is affected by this. So this is a way that some of those people can find some financial relief. And that's a thing you can support. You know what? We're going to put up helpful links at birdfuck.com.

It'll be on birdfuck.com. We're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to that will be helpful. But yet, Wags, I was just talking to everybody, Eric Edelstein.

Great dope, boys, guests. A great guy. We did the McPlanet, which they discontinued. I know what I'm saying. We loved the McPlanet and they were like, ah, fuck it. We don't want to sell it anymore. We were talking and he made a great point of how many talented and funny people he's seen have to just pack up and leave the industry.

Because- Yes. 100% Just because they can't afford to live here, they have to give up like super talented funny people that can't afford to survive out here. And it's not just about that, of course. It's about being paid your fair share. And that also happening because there's people who do who can survive obviously we we are we manage to live out here and live comfortably but there's a lot of people who are not in the same position as us and and and solidarity. Sag after a strike.org and entertainmentcommunity.org. And of course, birdfuck.com. Birdfuck.com. But right now,

I'm not sure if you go to like sags, I'm saying, I don't know if they'll list birdfuck.com, but we'll list, we'll list, we'll list those URL. Yeah, and hopefully they'll also list out. Hopefully they'll reciprocate. Anyway, all that said, this is the episode. We recorded it back in June. We have a fantastic guest who we're very excited to talk to.

And we're talking Taco Bell again. So enjoy Taco Bell eight with Saboah Joe. So is the Duno Wars! Duno Wars! Duno Wars! Duno Wars! Duno Wars! Welcome to Dodo Boys, the podcast about chain restaurants. I'm Nick Weiger, along with my co-host, Samosa Doe, the Spoon Man Mike Mitchell. Wow, that's great.

A very on point roast for a couple of reasons. In honor of Twisted Metal, congrats Spoon Man from Connor, roastspoonmanageemount.com. How about that? I'm in the basement again. You're back in the basement. It does look a little creepy over here.

It does look a little creepy, yeah. Who's, who's, people watching the video fade? Who, feed, who's space looks creepy or yours? Or mine where like only my face is lit and you just see a dim minion in the background, staring dead eye at the camera. Ha, ha, ha. Yeah, no, that yours looks,

yours looks pretty terrifying now that you point that out. Yeah. Mine looks a little, I have a little boogie man vibes. Why, did you read the boogie man? You've been reading all the Stephen King books. I'm not up to the boogie man. The boogie man I think is a more recent one. Yeah, I'm still in the 80s, but I've been shouted to the Just King Things podcast. I've been reading all of Stephen King's books in chronological order.

And I heard that you kind of got stuck on the at an it at the child orgy. Yeah, pages were stuck together. It can get through the rest of the book. No one else is gonna come on this show. Yes, no one else. I mean, no, our guest, Maley, possibly. Um,

Wags, where are you now? Are you, you're still in the 80s? I'm getting up to, my next book is Kujo. So I just got through Dance Macab, which is a nonfiction book, yeah. The devil's up. And it's kind of, Kujo. Dance Macab is kind of just like one of his most coke fueled like treatiseys

It's just like a real long rant about just like horror movies and TV shows. I heard I heard it's one sentence, right? This one big sentence Well, I got I just don't want to do this, but I got to do it This show I, that too. Yeah. Look, our guest is cool. Our guest is cool. We're thrilled to have him.

We're both big fans. I'm honestly. I just want to say, Starstruck, you've worked with him. Oh, yeah, it's, but you have your thing. You got to do because that's how the podcast works. How to hoe to spoon nation. Um, oh God. Emma, do we have a drop lined up? I'm just realizing that okay, here's a little Okay, here's a little drop. Hey, you know what god bless, Macy Gray and I try what is it?

How what is that song? I is that I try I tried as something and I mean she's got like a breathy voice and I kind of know the tone. Yeah, please. Oh man, I'll stomp her. Try to something, something, something. Some of them, something, something. You're something, something, something. She's got a good, distinct voice. You said something after I tried.

I couldn't even say any other, even say the words. I thought I knew more the lyrics. I did not. You know, doing this, we haven't been on Zoom in a while. That's true. And doing this over Zoom just reminds me that like the show was bad.

Like we can kind of, we can kind of surprise our guests when they're in the room, you know, like, too late now, you're here. Yeah. But over Zoom, it's like, too late now, you're here. Yeah. Well, over, over Zoom, it's like, I feel like they could just walk away at any moment. And it just, they're less captain. It also like you, it, you really are focused on

how much more embarrassing this because you have like, like this is because you have like that second delay as to whether there's going to be a laugh after something you do. And then when that doesn't happen, which it just doesn't for us, it's like, oh man, okay. I was just hung out there for a bit. All right, here we go. Hey guys, just randomly came across this drop that I made and submitted four years ago.

Bingers crossed that it makes it to the show this time. Nothing to promote, but have a wonderful day. Austin Roland. That was four years ago. Yeah. When we tried to parse together Macy Gray's lyrics on the fly and we're incapable of doing so,

that was four years in the past. That's right. Like what, I just like, I'm to 2019. Yeah. Wow. Time flies. Pre-coated. No times, I'm to 2019. Yeah. Wow. Time flies. Pre-coated. No, times, I mean, time's, time's really gone by and we've just kind of gotten fatter. I was looking at, my mom was asking for photos the other and I was looking through like old doughboys photos in it. We photos and we've gotten considerably fatter.

Yeah. And I also just kind of hasn't stopped. And I do wonder, it just will never stop happening. If you took like our modern photos and then paired them up with our year one photos, but just like flip the order and said they would like, look like before and after photos. Yeah. Like slim fast.

We both went on acting. It's also magically de-aged as well. Yeah. I want to say happy graduation to Danny Ballerino is graduation, which I'm missing right now. Congrats, Danny. You got it. He's my, my cousin's kid.

Good. Great. Wow. Anyway, Wags, let's introduce our guest. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through.

It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through.

It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through.

It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. It's been through. You know what I'm saying? And I'm very happy to see you. You know, when I worked with you, I said, this man has this crazy ability to just project this innate sadness. And now I know where it comes from. Just in the 10 minutes I've been here. And it's so good. You know, like now I see the process. And I appreciate you more as an artist now. This is amazing.

Wow. This is where you drive it all from, huh? This is the well. This is great, man. I'm excited to be here. I'm trying to catch some of this. We're a lot of it. A lot of it comes. A lot of it comes from this basement.

This is where a lot of that. Yeah. Just there's an uncanny for Lauren ability that you have. And I count me jealous. You know what I'm saying? I am looking, when I'm doing this podcast, I am like looking at the, you know, Wags in the Simpsons episode where like homers,

like shadow is burned into the wall. Yes, I can't remember. He goes to his old, he goes to his old home and then that's right. He was sitting in front of the TV. Yeah. Right. That's like, I'm looking at the spot where that where that happened for me.

Is right in the corner. My mom is also yelling downstairs. She said, I promise you, I won't interrupt during recording, which he's yelling does is great. I'm not interrupting you. She left. She just, I heard the front door close. You may be say goodbye. Sweetheart. She's a great lady. I'm looking at the spot where I played video,

Legend of Zelda, uh, Ocarina of Timewags, Ocarina of Time. And uh, some say Ocarina, some say Ocarina. I think it's Ocarina. I always from the south. You know. Yeah, yeah. It's originalism. Are you are you are you Joe? I know you you play video games. Did you play did you play Ocarina time? Ocarina. I think I think everybody did. I mean, I mean, most most I think Zelda's kind of one of those generational franchises. Everybody. Yeah. plays and enjoys whether like it or not. I know I know the last two Zelda games, everybody in my family and everybody that around me,

especially I wasn't WWE at time or just playing like crazy. Hey man, have you, you know, like, it's just weird talking about Link with like grown men, you know, yeah, right. Are you playing tears of the K-Rail? It's weird not talking about it. I did start playing tears. The kingdom and unfortunately Diablo started up and I got a lot of buddies. Oh, here we go.

They got me roped in. And you know, you're, you have a video game coming out in, in, in just a month. Oh, not even next year. Yeah, we got, we have pushed so we're next year. Suicide squad kills the Justice League. Oh, I was thinking of rad you in the I was thinking of a AEW fight forever. I'm actually AEW fight for I think they're still working on it.

You know, I kind of got in the company at a weird time during development. So I don't know, maybe there'll be some DLC at some point, but they're so. Oh, shit. But you're a you you voice is a king shark in the suicide squad game. That's awesome.

Yeah, fun. I mean, you know, in really great cast with the game, you know, Tara Strong's amazing as Harley Quinn. I mean, from top to bottom, real fun process. So I mean, it's the voiceover stuff with the video games kind of a kind of a side hustle, if you will, but it's it's one that I find a lot of fun doing. And you know, it's just cool being a part of it. Yeah. Played them on my life and kind of being there and be a voice in one of those always fun time. I want to ask about, I want to ask about Diablo a little bit.

I know we got a lot to talk about, but I'm a big Diablo franchise fan. Although I have not, I didn't pay for the, as of this recording, like it's like the day that it officially releases. Yeah, you're right, dude, I get it, bro. You can't do that $99. It's not feasible in this economic cloud. Get it, bro. You know, hey, you should have do that $99. The likes. Man, it's not feasible in this economic climb. Get it, bro. You know, hey, you should have said that.

I'll send you the upgrade dog in a fantastic strong together, man. You know what I'm gonna do. No, it's fine. It's retail release now. So I can just get my pre-order. But I did play some in the open beta, but I'm curious, like, what is your build?

What do you, what character you're running? So I'm running a, I went source short just cause I'd never play source short. I usually play like a ranger or barbarian. Right. But I said, ah, you know what? I'm gonna, I'm gonna give it a shot. And that's pretty cool, man.

You know, I'm running lightning and ice and you know, frying everything that I can and really just super nerd now that I listen to myself say this. So yeah, it's pretty awesome. That's awesome. Hey, Wags, when you said you play open beta, that's when they open up the game to like all the betas across the country. Yeah. Do boys hosting fans. They just want our feedback. Yeah, I pick you hard to survey

before you actually get into the game. My wife leveled up my character for me. Oh, God. Yeah, it's like, have you asked for a mission to be playing this late at night? Yes. Oh, I'm thinking, all right. He's in. What are your thoughts when someone's

railing your wife interested? That's the boss. That's the boss. What are her thoughts? That's what's important. That's what's important. Joe, now annoyingly, doeboys fans will be demanding tweeting at Tony con for the for the Samoa Joe DLC pack, which I can't wait for. Oh yeah, they'll be. I'm, you know, there's already kind of up

in arms. I want everybody in the roster. So, um, yeah, you know, we'll see. there are already kind of up in arms it. I want everybody in the roster. So yeah, you know, we'll see. You're all over every, I mean, you're all over every video game. The first of all, you're, like you said, suicide squad. And then you're going to be an AW. But then you got to play one of the biggest video game characters of all time.

And I saw that's right. I got the way iconic character. It was pretty awesome. I mean, sweet tooth. Yeah. Uh, I guess you got me. Oh, God, you're the best. I got the way Connick character It was pretty right Sweet tooth. Yeah, I guess you got me. Oh God you're the best No, I was cool man. I mean what can you say in a sweet tooth man like it's it's a it's kind of an iconic video game character Especially from my youth. I mean, yeah, I'm a you know every game generation guys So I've been there for everyone in PlayStation when it launched, you know, Twisted Metal came out,

and I remember that was like the couch co-op. Let's get down. Oh my God, this is crazy. We're gonna blow up the Eiffel Tower, you know, type of game. So it's like, it's weird getting a call kind of like out of the blue like, hey man, I want you to screen test for this. And friend Carter Swan kind of hit me up.

Like after 10 years, it just kind of, you know, I hadn't seen home in LA forever. And man, I just kind of hadn't seen home you an LA forever. And man, I got this crazy part. I think you'd be perfect for it. You know, you screen test, right? Yeah, sure. And what is it? Do you remember twisted metal?

I go, if it's the kind of, it's the clown. It's all right. Here we go, man. Like. Ha, ha, ha, ha. It is, it is. I feel like that's the conversation with everyone about twisted metal is like that's

the one character in the one vehicle that everyone remembers. Oh, yeah. Yeah, it was that because it was like every time I'd bring it up, you know, where are you going? I got a gun in the door on this for a couple months and you know, what do you film and twist the metal? Oh, the crazy clown thing. I'm like, yeah, that's me.

The bad viewers, like at this, you know, being in a network show, it's like, you know, being arrested doesn't matter that I've been on television for 20 years, all the stuff. My mom's like, oh, a show. This is, this is great. And I'm like, okay, cool. And you know, she's, she's all stoked and excited for it, but like, she has no idea what I'm playing or who I am. And, you know, she's a little older and stuff.

And so she thinks, I'm going to be like, oh, like, you know, handsome, debonair guy like on the show, then the first trailer show, I'm a, you know, psycho clown with the shabby. She's just like, wow, that's where all my hard work went, right? Raise you up to be a clown. Okay, great. I remember when I we did birthday boys. And then like my mom've said this before on the show but my mom watching she's like. It's just not my sense of humor and you're like. What the fuck mom? We have a show you should be happy we have a show.

I said you always get that from like people back home will just always be like yeah, I didn't like it. Maybe they don't see you. Like I see you. That's what I'm saying. There you go. We saw a lot of each other. Joe is insanely good in the show. He's phenomenal. I was going to say phenomenal, but I was afraid I was going to say it wrong. I know where you're going. It's not that hard of a word to say. Every single syllable you nailed it, but.

But all four. But Joe, the thing I, you and I, not to, I can't get into any plot stuff, of course, but you and I, we spent some time in the show together. I'll say that. And a thing that I, that you gave me a feeling that I've only had a couple of times in my life, because I'm a big man. I'm a big man. But Joe, you, there was like a scene where you had to like grab me basically.

You probably remember this where you have to grab me. And for a guy my size to like feel like a little kid, it never usually happens and you made it happen for me. You're like picking me up like a child. And honestly, it was fun. It was fun for me. It's a thing that I missed. Let's be honest.

Could they have locked us in any hotter boxes the entire time we were filming the show? Like, that's what the show was every day. It was like, all right. So let's see here. Where's where's where's Mitch? Where's Joe? Know the two biggest guys on set. All right, let's get that warm hot box and leave it out there in the sun for a little bit. And let's put them in it. Okay, good. And we're about to shoot. You know what? Let's, can we just refu- can we move the cameras around a little bit? I don't like this job. You guys, stay in that box. Stay in the box, guys. You know, that was literally, you know, many of our days shooting was just us

in some form of enclosed hot space. Just like looking at each other, just going through the struggle, like, Mom, brother, we're gonna get through the sweat together. It's me and you. going through the struggle like Mom, brother, we're gonna get through the sweat. Yeah, that's what we got. It's me and you. Hair and makeup. Hair and makeup was like that she had like the bottle for sweat. And I think she grew it. Never trashed the word.

She never used it once. I remember one time she actually walked on the set, two sprays down and she went, oh, no. If she would start wiping us down like Like, like, Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, the whole thing like the sweat color of his shirt. It's not the page. They try to make sure they're trying to keep the maintain the continuity of the shirt throughout the throughout episodes and like, yeah, one episode ended where that change stained black and white and soft and wet. They get I mean, they put us in a I believe it was a male truck that the that your ice cream truck is was made out of. And there's no, and it made me feel so bad for male men and male women across the

country for the, for the last 30 years, why is there's no AC? There's no AC in them. They're the hottest fucking cars in the world. They were, it was so fucking hot. It was insane. We have a lot of, we have a lot of post workers, good number of post workers who listen to podcasts, listen on their routes.

And yeah, that's a tough job. Thank you for your service. No way seen. It was fucking crazy. Yeah. And, you know, not to mention the suspension on a lot of those things, especially when you're bump around the desert or definitely not the best. Oh, yeah.

Horrible. And also, like you said, on top of it, New Orleans, we started in like May, June. So it was perfect. It was the perfect, it was a perfect storm of sweat. Your character was supposed to be like hulking and sweaty anyway. Yeah, so it worked out great for me. The only problem was, you know, like they come and, you know, get me all greasy for whatever seeing it was like after a couple of scenes, we both had sweated so much that by the time

I was like, glistening clean. I like, you know, okay, I'm not picking. Get some mud, you know what I'm going to do? I'm already mopping, get some mud, you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to warm this up and get back up on set. Can I ask about because the other element of the character, there's a head piece. And what was it like wearing that head piece in terms of like,

like visibility and terms of being able to breathe? It definitely wasn't made for breathability. Oh, I will say that. Oh, man. Yeah, wearing the mask was, it wasn't as bad as you would think it was, but it definitely made a 112 degree day in New Orleans a lot tougher to shoot. Oh my God. It's insane.

It was insane. They had emergency cool down trailers for us, Wags, which was just like a you know, like a you haul trailer like that you would hitch to a back up a truck. Yeah. It was just one of those with a square cutting it with an AC. So it was like you just would stand in the back of like, you know, they would keep it at 60 degrees,

but I went and visited that bad boy a few times. I think I tried to sleep in it one night. I love. Yeah. He's a lot of in between shot. Reddens of running over to the ice trailer and just okay, do you got to get a cool down? It was on the weep. Hey, if they do another season, and which I hope they do, hopefully we'll shoot in September October. Oh, nice little win. Oh, I mean, a fall shoot. Oh, my goodness. Oh we'll shoot in September October. Oh, nice little win. I mean, a fall shoot. Oh my goodness. Oh, man.

Give us a hurricane season. You know what I mean? Give me a little drizzle in the afternoon. So you're down in New Orleans. You're shooting this. Obviously, great food city. And I heard a lot from Mitch about his time and down into Bayou and some of the food that he had. But I'm curious to know, know, do you have anything memorable from onset or from like

visiting any local restaurants? Uh, food was always really good on set. I mean, I think in Louisiana in general, especially New Orleans, it's just, they're everywhere you go, you're going to get a decent meal. I mean, they just have a cooking culture down there that just demands that things are done a certain way. And I mean, countless restaurants down there. I mean, from a lot of really good Vietnamese food down there now. I mean, I grew up in a predominantly Vietnamese neighborhood in California. And like, you know, I remember, you know, eating there and it being pretty good. And this being on par with that, you know, you know, because I was down being pretty good and this being on par with that, you know,

and you know, I was down in Garden Grove, so like little psych not very and stuff like that. Um, man, other than that, I mean, we got some crab claws together. We got some crab claws over at tubes. We did, uh, I'm trying to remember the place, so we, the port of call burger. I don't know, that's a, yeah, Matthew McEy put me that. And it's a place called the port of call, a little bar. And I think right port of call, I'm pretty sure that's what's called. Yeah, yeah, I think so, yeah. And they do these incredible burgers. I mean, these big, huge, juicy, you know,

kind of like bar burgers. And then like a massive baked potato that's too big to be in my anybody that's fully loaded. Yeah. You go in there and you eat one of those, you're not eating for another two days, because it's just incredible. It's really, really. And a heart, you can get a big hurricane, the drink, the heart, you get like a huge hurricane,

where they throw every single liqueur in one cup and you pretty much block out and die as you walk home with it. Do you like a big like sort of like Tiki drink? Cause I know that's a thing that Mitch loves. Loads of it. Tropical. So because my parents worked extensively a lot in the during the Tiki boom in the Tiki business and the stuff he's kind of grew up in a Tiki bar environment.

Sam C food, the Ties and Terris, the Diz, they were my dad worked in. So yeah, I like a good Tiki drink. And I think like, if you can have like an original recipe, my tie, and the my tie now is kind of just like ramen all this stuff, there's an original recipe, my tie that you can find. Oh, man, it's my favorite, it's my favorite Tiki drink all time. It's just that perfect mouth, not super sweet, you know, good little easy drinker, and you can put down 20 of them and, you know, have a great night. I love, I love, I love the original. I've tried to make like the classic

my tie with a dry curacao and like, and there's, and because a lot of times now, if you get it somewhere, it's like pineapple juice and orange juice. Yeah, it's good much ramen. Right. Joe, where'd you say your dad worked in Disney? So, my dad actually, he worked, he was hired by Walt Disney, he started the Tusion Terrace like Paulie's in show that was in Adventureland when it first started up. Holy shit.

Yeah, he worked there for- That's fantastic. Yeah, he worked there for, I mean, through most of my youth and then later on my brother actually took over, he was a fire knife dancer and he worked on the show too. So yeah, that's pretty cool. Like I kind of grew up backstage at Disney my entire life and playing basketball in the Matterhorn and shit like that.

So. Wow. Yeah, wild time. But like I said, Disney's always kind of been around in my family. I think my brother actually still does do shows for them in the hotel out there now. So yeah, just like I said, they he started during like the, the big boom of Tiki bars in the 60s and 70s, uh, met my mom and they started a show together.

But, uh, yeah, I mean, just because of that, I mean, I kind of grown up backstage in this polish and dance troupe and, you know, at Tiki bars and kind of, I mean, we were essentially Tiki bar culture in Southern California for years, you know, so it's kind of, yeah, I know a lot at Tiki bars and kind of, I mean, we were essentially Tiki bar culture in Southern California for years, you know, so kind of, yeah, I know a lot about Tiki drinks. Let me tell you. That's fucking awesome. Wow. I love it. Have you been, have you been able to go to any of the LA Tiki spots Tiki T or Tonga hot,

I think is in, is in North Hollywood? Yeah. I mean, it's on. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like, I've been to them, you know, and a lot of them, but like down in Southern, like in Orange. Yeah, I mean, it's on. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like I've been to them, you know, and a lot of them, but like down in Southern like in Orange County, they had like Kona Hawaii. I think Sam's is now on the Beach Comer, but which is a play on the old original down the Beach Comer and Hawaii. But I mean, that's kind of like where we were. And yeah, it's

just weird. Like there's still a few that survive up in Los Angeles, but like, a lot of the ones down Orange County just kind of dried up and gone away. It's sad, but it's a cool, like, little snapshot of time. And like, if you got to go out to a Tiki Bar at night and like have one of those little early evenings, it was a really good, it was awesome evening in an awesome show.

So who knows, maybe there'll be a revival someday. I think still on my list to stay at the, I've never stayed at the Polynesian and Disney world and I wanna stay there. It's like everything. It's right on my alley. Yeah. Yeah.

Joe, your dreams are conditioning. Yeah, I mean, yeah, the opposite of Twist and Metal, just with AC. Joe, my, my, you said, you told me, I mean, you were like, let's eat, you know, like we both were like, let's eat, we want to go out like, let's eat. You know, like we both were like, let's eat. We want to go out. And that was for me was the real continuity issue for me

is that like my belly started to come, like my shirt was riding up my belly. Oh, no, you can't not be a New Orleans and not get fat dude. If you do, I think you have a drug problem. That's the only way you can probably avoid it. Like, it's incredible. Cause like everything down there, they sneak butter into everything. You know, like I went, I actually went and got a chicken like, oh, I'll get this chicken

wrap. And then as I was she made it, she slathered the tortilla with butter, fried it, but I was like, I don't even know why I got the turkey wrap, man. That's a Mitchell family move. I was real slick, you know. That's even the, like you said, the onset food was like, just at the end of the day to have like a delicious creme brulee and shit for it. It was messed up.

I mean, it was so, so good. But you're a food guy and I'm guessing being amongst other wrestlers, you've seen a lot of big eaters in your time. Is there anyone that you remember specifically as the biggest eater you've ever met or any, any, any feats of eating you've ever witnessed backstage? Yeah. So this is actually an old story. And this is like, goes back to when I started and it was actually John Cena and Frankie

Couserian, too, guys. So Frank Couserian currently works in TNA John Cena actually John Cena and Frankie Cazarian. Two guys, so Frank Cazarian currently were since TNA John Cena, John Cena. And we were at my house, we had just got done doing a rest of the show. It was probably midnight, you know, we were all kind of crashing on my pad because we had another show the next day.

So we got back there, you know, my pops really great host no matter what time of night we get there. It's probably, like I said, it's midnight and my dad just starts cooking. And he cooks like a pan of chicken breasts and all this stuff for all the guys is by five of us and and the guys starting and There's you know two little sheet trays of chicken breasts Like completely full with like grilled chicken breast and I've one or two one or two and John and Frankie to start

Like going one-to-one on these chicken breasts. And they get through like two trays, which A, I was amazed my dad had whipped up two trays. Like, what are you doing, pop? It's like, one o'clock in the morning, you know, that's horrible. Like, what the hell? So they get through two trays of chicken. And like, they're now like facing each other face to face,

like just trying to shove Lindy, like, I'm not giving up before you give up. I'm not giving up for you give up. And finally, they just finished all the chicken in the house and there was nothing left to eat and they called it a draw. But, wow. Wow.

But I would say it was probably, they probably both ate six pounds of chicken. It's not worth it. That's fucking impressive. That's wild. See, that's funny, because we're like, you know, wags, we're food guys. That's true. And we're also not good at that wags, we're food guys. That's true.

We're also not good at that. Like we both would tap out at like a pound and a half or something. We'd be totally, yeah, we'd be, we'd be totally Alfred in that situation. Yeah. Like, oh, here are the food podcasters. Here they go.

I was like, oh wait, the doughboys are like throwing up and crying. Oh God. I don't want to take any more. But it's another place. Yeah. oh, this is what you're probably going to go into this. Go for a wags. Yeah. I want to ask because you mentioned being from Garden Grove, like you. I am from Southern California. I've lived here my whole life. And I am, and there's a place that Mitch told me that you mentioned, which is a place I have a lot of

affection for, which is Tommy's burger. Oh, Tommy's. I mean, really one of the unsung heroes in Southern California. We're sure. But like, and I actually saw that you guys talked a little bit about Tommy's in a past podcast. Yeah, way back in the day. Yeah. And I will say this, like, you guys brought some good points. A, if it's the, if it's daylight out and you're ordering a Tommy's chili cheese burger, you better be a day laborer. Okay. You better have been working in some kind of field and or outside with a tool. If you are in a nice car and you pull in a Tommy's

and you order lunch, you're a disgusting piece of shit. I mean, there's no, unless you do hard, physical manual labor. Like Tommy burger is the burger of the people of the working man. It really truly is. You will not find anything but drywall trucks, land, land, the landscapers. I mean, that's that's who parks during the day, during the day at Tommy's and eats Tommy's show because you need a brick of meat chili to get you through whatever hard day worth that you got going. Now, the rules change drastically after about 9.30 at night.

At 9.30 at night, a Tommy's chili, double chili cheeseburger ensures that your drunk asshole friend will fall the fuck asleep immediate. We all have an asshole drunk friend who just, we're gonna go to another bar, man. What the fuck are you doing all night? That asshole exists in our lives, right? Like, we all know him. Of course. Or her, you know, she's there, he's there.

So what you do is you let the gigators in the gigators. Why are you thinking of me by the way right now? Yeah, yeah. I was gonna shove a Tommy's double chili cheese where you down your gut. He's going to give you the fries. You're not gonna know what the fuck they are because it's just like a big glob of chili over something that you hope is fries underneath.

And then you will eat that. It will become a 42 ton brick in your stomach and your assholery of the night will be completely over because you won't be able to move. And that is the beauty of Tommy's chili cheeseburgerers that it's for the working man and for the drunk asshole. And you can't ask for much more out of a fast food restaurant chain. The assholeery is at an end, but the asshole work is about to begin. Yes, sir. A couple hours. Christ, Tom.

I like how kind of just in, well, as we said this about Zodiac that I said it was like beautifully boring. And I meant it as a compliment. Yeah, of course. I don't kind of mundane stuff. But Tommy's to me, like I love how kind of fucking nasty it is. It's a little nasty,

it's a little twisted little nasty place. But it doesn't get its flowers the way in an out burger does the way even fat burger. I feel like. I think that I think it's just like, you know, a lot of Tommy's have closed. There's also a lot of Tommy's clones, which is a thing. Like I know there's like, there's like, you know, there'd be like big Tommy's or like Tommy's with one M, you know, there was there was a place that was Thomas's that was just a Tommy's clone. It's like the equivalent of like all the, the famous original ways in New York. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I like to send the Ripley, the way Lennie, Tony Ripley clones. It kind of is like that. There's some of that too. Very shitty. Yeah, I think there's, so, so I think that probably dilutes the brand a little bit, but yeah, I love Tommy's. And when they close, I get bombed out because it's just like that's that to me is such a Southern California institution. And like you were saying, Joe, yeah, it's such a it's such a working class thing.

And it very much is and I think that's like why I love it because like, you know, we come off of doing shows in like in it's open 24 hours. It's another wonder right or something about it. So, you know, we come off of shows, you know, doing positive shows with our family, maybe, you know, 12, 31 o'clock in the morning. And it was like, we didn't eat because we're dancing for the majority of the afternoon. It's like our poppet roll in there, you know, four or five Tommy Chili cheeseburgers and like, you know, the whole house is passed out within half hour and onto the next day. I don't know why, the worst one on sunset. Joe, do you have, do you have an order?

Do you have a go to order there? Do you have a, I think you love there. Number two, the double chili cheeseburger, chili cheese fries. I mean, that's, that's all you can eat. I mean, if you can eat more than that, I mean, yeah. That's a good point. You're really trying to stay there. McDonald's, I always get a little side,

you know, the little side sandwich with my sandwich, you know, like, but. Oh, the, the extra burrs. Now, let me ask you your, the little side sandwich with my sandwich, you know, like but oh the extra Burrs now let me ask you your your your your approach on this do you do a Premium burger and then you get one of those dollar menu burgers on the side or something like that It depends on like you can admit it. It's all right. It's not girlfriends here It depends honestly. It depends on like what on what level of Like you said earlier, you know how I, how I just give off that sadness.

It depends on how much of that sadness is coming off for me, how much I'm in, emanating, but I, for me, it's usually, same, I go to McDonald's, I get the Big Mac meal. I usually get a spicy, McChicken sandwich too. That's like what I'll do. But then at Wendy's, I'll do the spicy chicken sandwich. And a lot of the times I'll do a junior cheeseburger deluxe, but sometimes if I'm like, I'm hungry and I want to eat, I'll do a Dave's single or a Dave's

double even. See, so I notice you do a something a little bit of like mind math that I do, where I think if I, if the second sandwich is a chicken sandwich somehow some way and I know he's laughing right now. It's a chicken sandwich. Therefore, these extra calories really aren't that many more calories. I mean, I had an extra piece of chicken. I mean, relax, right? Is that cool?

I'm not the only one that kind of thinks that way. I get it, brother. All right, man, I see you. You need to talk. Hey, the more we talk about this, the more people we're helping man. All right. It is, it is, and it's funny when you look at, you'll look at the college for, and it's like, oh, this is like as much as a big Mac almost.

It's just, it's a fried chicken patty. It's not going to be great for you. It is not any better for you whatsoever. But in our mind, white meat, it's got to be better, right? You know, like that Dave's don't that'll kill me, but this chicken sandwich is just give me a little indigestion, not a big deal, right? That's my mom made turkey sloppy Joe's last night, and I ate like three of them. I ate three turkey sloppy Joe's and she's like, a good healthy.

It's turkey, it's turkey. Yeah, there you go. But she was confused too. She was like, a good healthy dinner. And I like, oh, I was a good fucking move. She doesn't fucking she doesn't she doesn't know anything about My mom has no idea about like portion stuff. So she was just like you wait healthy tonight, and I fucking I shoved it all on my face I had a ton of sloppy Joe mixture. Hey, she just looks like she's your breath and right all right, you're fine mixture. Hey, she just looks like you're breathing, right? All right, you're fine. I did good job. Well, look, we have a lot of Taco Bell to discuss. So let's take a break. We'll be right back

They have some new menu items. We thought we'd revisit it.

Yeah, this is Taco Bell eight. Do you have any, first off, I want to ask Joe about Taco Bell in general. But first off, Mitch, during the break, you told me you had something. I just, I wanted to say something earlier when Joe said, like, hey, we all played Ocarina or Ocarina of time. And it reminded me of someone just told me that he was Leo, Leonardo DiCaprio's assistant. And he was cleaning up his place and he packed up his PlayStation 5.

This is a person you know? Yeah, yeah, a person I know. Wow. And so somewhere out there, Leo's online, fucking, you know, destroying noobs. You know, he plays for the horizon for Midwest. He plays FIFA. He plays FIFA. know, destroying noobs. It's, you know, in horizon for midwest, he plays for you. Oh, that makes sense. Yeah, real. That's a real, that's a real euro trash move to do, you know, just a big old piece of master.

I love it. Look at that. Like, I play a soccer, you know, right. Right. Uh, Joe, I'm curious about it because you know, Taco Bell,. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Joe, I'm curious about it because, you know, Taco Bell, you're big with this. I imagine you, you've, you've had it a lot in your life. What, what, do you have any thoughts on Taco Bell coming in?

I, I think the base Taco Bell menus are strong line up. I think, uh, uh, there's very few of the specialty items. I think are, you know, nothing more than a really interesting rearrangement of the base item. So, yeah, I think they got a strong, like, starting lineup, but I think some of their more ambitious offerings are a little bit more smoking mirrors than actually, you know, like a good meal. They're interesting.

They try to, we've talked about this before, because I, at one point, said Taco Bell was my favorite restaurant, which I do, it maybe is in some way. I love Taco Bell, but I think you can more and more of the Sadduce onion is starting to unfurl the tough to me, and I'm really, I'm getting it now, I'm getting it. I am sadly like death row meal, maybe would be like

some Taco Bell. Helling my co-host. I just can't do it in the wrong state, Wags. I, I'm not stepping in yet. Go ahead, buddy. Joe, I think that sometimes they try to do some of the new items and they just, some new new items and they just strike out. Which I wonder if today, I don't know Nick, if you try to do the new offerings or you did

Joe, but today will be a part of, you know, if some of the strikeouts came with some of their new items. But a cheesy gourdy eater crunch to me is up there with a, that's like big Mac territory. I usually like, to me, that's graduated to like, that's like a core Taco Bell menu item in my brain now. No, I think it is. And yeah, but I like the, I'm a ground beef man at Taco Bell.

That's what I like more than, and this maybe is what you're getting at, Joe, like I like, I go with a ground beef man at Taco Bell. That's what I like more than, and this maybe is what you're getting at, Joe. Like I like, I go with the ground beef over chicken or steak or anything fancy like that, but I will say I had a decent experience with steak today. I was surprised at my steak. This is a thing that people who eat vegetarian, and I'm not exclusively vegetarian,

but I tried to have less meat in general these days. And I, a thing that people who eat vegetarian have pointed out, and I'll just say it again, because it's what I did in this particular visit. The Taco Bell app is very much not crap. It makes it very easy for you to substitute black beans for any protein or whatever beans. And that actually works pretty well for a lot of menu items. So I do appreciate that about this chain. And also I think this is like,

as far as size and scale, I think this is the most veggie friendly fast food restaurant. I mean, like you can eat versions of basically the entire menu without meat. And vegan, it gets a little trickier, but there's things you can finagle. So that's to me is a big advantage of Taco Bell. Yeah.

I mean, we've talked about this before that. It's like, it's weirdly slightly healthier in some way. Well, not healthier, but there's no real fry. Yeah, we're not talking turkey sloppy Joe's here, but it's no real fry. Yeah, we're not talking turkey sloppy Joe's here, but it's a little healthier. My mom, I brought the Taco Bell, this is when I'm recording at home, I brought the Taco Bell into the basement to eat

because I didn't want my mom like hovering over me and being like, don't finish that because she was gonna do that. So I brought it into the basement to eat, which is so pathetic, as a 40 year old man to hide in the basement to eat, which is so pathetic. As a four year old man to hide in the basement, he's my Taco Bell. It's still here.

In a perfect road, we walk down and still do it. Do you finish that yet? Pouring milk on it, so I don't finish it. It's terrible for you. I, um, I, I, I, the Quincy Taco Bell is a half KFC, half Taco Bell, Wags, I talked about this in the past. And I was afraid that I wasn't going to have any luck here because right now the Encherito is back. That's the big news. That's right. Encherito is back. Encherito is back. Did you get it? I did. I did as well.

All three of us got. Wow. I have to say though, although I'm not a Taco Bell app adopter, I did have a bit of problem with this online exclusive business because like, I'll tell you why. It, it, I met Taco Bell and I'm driving over to somewhere else to, you know, do a gig and sit in there and like at first I read you

and I said, oh, it's an online exclusive thing and I didn't really put two and two together so I go through the drive-through. Hi, can I get in Shredo? Well, I'm sorry, that's an online only item. Ah, okay. So you have to order it online. All right, so I get in Tredo? Well, I'm sorry, that's an online only item. Ah, okay. So you have to order it online. All right, so I get out of the drive-through line, park my car, do the order online, and granted that's my, that's on me. But I get my in Tredo and I get in my car. And I've had the in Tredo before,

and I'm looking at it, and I like a good enchilada, and I love a good little pepper sauce and ice-crown beef, some cheese. But I'm looking at this in Treadaw. I'm going, this is the item that I had to get out of line for. Get online. Give up my government details to a medical operation. And this. That's fucking awesome.

Oh my god. Who's going to be that? Just a Moa Joe. I'd be fucking, I'd say you can get whatever you want. And this that's Oh my god Moa Joe I'd be fucking I'd say she can get whatever you want I mean I Did you just you should have just given them a fucking look or something right when you Went I almost went into the hey listen, so you're telling me I have to go over there there Get on my phone In order there and then come back here and then I can get it. And she's like, well, that's kind of how I was. And I was just like, oh, so man,

and I left a little bit of that. But as far as the intureto goes, it's a, it's a nice little item. It should be on the regular menu. You know, it's, it's, it's got really great bass components, little cheese, nice little sauce on top, you know, all wrapped up nice and warm with a little bit of extra ground beef. It does like way bigger in the photo. This is one of those things and I actually photographed it in my car that when you take a picture of the Intrino, they've worked out the dimensions of this bastard that any photo it shows up and it looks two times as big as it really is. 100%. Yeah, no, you're absolutely right on that. It's it's some weird science they got because I looked at the picture of the insureto I go I get the intreta I look it into my car I'm looking into my hand

I'm saying this is not the Massive thing I saw in the advertisement and then I take a picture of with my camera actually to say to you Hey, I got the intreto we're all good. I take a picture of the intreto and the thing looks massive in my iPhone I'm like what? in my iPhone, I'm like, what the, just to do like, so Taco Bell is definitely figured out some magic science about how, how the interedo's photograph. She never have a sour taste in your mouth after you leave sourbell less Taco Bell, unless it's sour cream, of course. Yeah, yeah, unless you supreme that bitch, you know what I'm saying? This will make you even more mad, is that I didn't,

I ordered it and they just gave it to me. They didn't care. Oh, they didn't make you go online only. Wow. No, no. What are you going to say, wise, is podcast? I was going to say this podcast is already such an imposition on our guest time because our episodes are so fucking long.

And then they hear someone like as, as busy as you had to like, take time out of your schedule, like pull into a parking space and download an app. I just like, it just, it just makes me feel like so such, like such a piece of shit for doing this. Yeah, we're fucking losers. You're, you're, you're in between like two wrestling shows where in like, I woke up and was like, Mommy, can I borrow your car to go to Taco Bell? And she was like, if you promise not to get too much,

we're fucking losers. Why, you know this? It's clear. You knew this from the beginning, but it's chill. I so I rolled out of bed and I went to the Taco Bell in Quincy. I thought I was gonna have to drive to West Roxbury, why, because there was a, on the app, that was the only one that came,

that's the half Taco Bell, half KFC, didn't come up with my app in Quincy and I was like, is this not gonna have any of the specialty items or the new items and this stuff, you can only order through the apps. And I went down to the Quincy one they had everything. They had, the only thing they didn't have was one of the any of the frozen drinks,

but I got the Encherito as well. I think you're right that they make it look bigger. It's still, so I got the salsa verde, the steak salsa verde, is this, am I saying it right? The steak verde chili? I think it's a chili verde, yeah, that's what it is. Okay, steak chili verde fries. I got, oh God, I still said it bad. But I got the fries and I got, and they both are in the kind of a similar container,

but the fries have a lot more going on. This is like just one taco with the enchirito in a container makes it seem bigger than it is. And a lot of sauce, there's just a lot of sauce on top of this thing. It's mostly sauce. It's mostly sauce. There's just a lot of sauce on top of this thing. I mostly- I mostly- I mostly- I mostly-

Yeah. It is mostly sauce. That's the other thing too. I like to the taste of it all right. I don't know how you guys felt, but Joe, I'm with you. I think it should be a regular menu item. I don't know why it's not.

Well, I'm saying like, if you're gonna make me download an app, you're gonna make me register into all this stuff. I want a Crunch Wrap Triple Supreme. I want some ridiculous item that like I, the only way I'm gonna get it is I have to do that. You know, like I want something completely outlanded to actually justify me having to explain to my loved ones

why there's a Taco Bell app on my phone. So it's like, I mean, there's a cost to these things, you know? It's true. Yeah. For me, the Taco Bell app is my first page of my phone, and then L, the other apps are on the second page on the first one. Right in the middle.

Yeah. I think online exclusives are just kind of stupid. Anyways, come on. I agree. And it's just a way to drive people towards doing what doing what Joe had to do, which is download the app and getting into there, getting into that ecosystem. I will say about the insuretote. The 86th the beef and I got extra beans.

So I just basically had like a bean and cheese burrito that was top, top, top, well that mild sauce. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Absolutely just drenched. Natalie had, my wife Natalie had a lot of, Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Slaathered. Zero weight quality to this whole meal. Exactly. Yeah. I think that red sauce doesn't have a ton of flavor. I took a bunch of that Diablo and just sort of slathered it over it.

You know, just to, yeah, and that, just to give it a little bit of heat because I'm a bit of a heat seeker. I also added sour cream to mine and I think that did help it. But yeah, I don't know why I would get this because I had it, I had as a control group. I had a, just a regular bean and cheese burrito on the side that I just preferred that. I don't think I need it slathered in all this mild sauce. Uh, the chili birdie fries, you know, birdie fries, brea, I both got veggie gone, Mitch. With the, with the end, charito, you know what I think the issue is, I looked, when I ordered, I looked in the kitchen and the guy putting the sauce on, it was Peter

North. Oh, that was the problem. Yeah, that's the slide. Okay, yeah, it makes sense now. So what he does? Yeah, he's a slather. He's like, he's like, this is a normal load, right? And he's put it just fucking pouring the sauce on. But he's great on the register is the thing. So they're like, all right, we gotta keep this guy. It's that line moving.

The chili, chili-verte fries and the chili-verte fries bredo, here's my take. I think the bredo is much better than the fries. line moving. The chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili,

the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili, the chili We have the opposite take. Wow. The opposite. I like the fry.

I love burrito, I always want the burrito version. And I thought the burrito was just a little too dry. I thought like it just didn't work as well for me. I thought the fries did a better job. I think that the strips were too much because they put like the tortilla chips on the fries which didn't work for me. But I agree.

Yes. I like the fries more than the burrito. Fuck. You know what? And my, here's the only thing I would say that could be a factor is that again, I got the veggie version. I did not get it with steak. So mine had black beans.

So maybe that made the difference. Yeah. Yeah. This can only be settled with a knife fight, guys. I'm sorry. This is me. Man. Be the saddest thing to see. Yeah, this can only be settled with the knife fight guys. I'm sorry. Man, the saddest thing to see. Did you leave her to knife fight?

Yeah, in both of us crying after we just like, prick each other. Yeah. I really do. You're the first. No, you let go first. The butter knife fight would be great. Like Michael Jackson and you. You lean cans. Just to moderate slathering each other with butter. We have that New Orleans sweat going to.

Yeah. That's interesting. I mean, Joe, did you have your, your chilly, did you have the chili verde fries, the chili verde fries burrito? I didn't do the chili fries burrito, but I did have the, the verde chili fries. And I kind of, I kind of grew with you, like the whole fry thing. It's just, you get an uneven bite. So it's like, yeah, unless you have a, I get that. Yeah, just like the perfect kind of little setup where everything landed just in the right spot and worked out It it's like a little jumbled. It's like, you know, you kind of get like a couple fries. Oh, there's a little chili Verdi sauce and some meat here and it's just like

Yeah, it just it didn't it didn't work as a concept for me 100% like I'll do a chili cheese fries any day over that. Oh, yeah It was like the game of Thrones map. It was like the one corner had fucking sour cream and then all the way up in the other corner was fucking guacamole. It was like- What else the problem was? I did the classic like,

you know where they put it in the back sideways and then your dumbass like actually slides it off and it's like, oh fuck. So yeah, the ingredients were on one side of the garden there. Sometimes that can be a nice little, sometimes that can create a nice goop. I don't intentionally goop something up,

but sometimes that can work, and sometimes it can completely ruin something. I think it's one way. Now, this may sound crazy. I have a buddy who will take a full nacho belgrande every time, and I thought he was crazy for the first time he did it, and he will shake it like a salad

Wow Hey, pop up the top and then I was like, oh, it's common message again But then you use use the lid for like a dip for all the extra sauce and all the stuff mixed up with the chips and I was like You're brilliant like my gosh You know, I should start buying weeks in this guy every week gosh. You know, I should start buying weeks in this guy every week. Cause I mean, that would be the guy that would know exactly how to do. 100% yeah.

No boys fans. It was it was Emma with a mustache. I would never that to me. That's I would never I could never, it seems like you're messing up a Koso right? Like what are you talking about here? But then as you open it up, I was like, there is actually some even distribution of the condiments over the chips and this thing. This might actually be a brilliant idea. I'll try. I'll 100% try it next time.

There is a technique to it. It's a slow, it's not hard. It's a very slow, low slow like side to side type of shuffle there. You got to get the chips turned over. All right, Mitch. Something like that. All right. That one's just for the video feed.

We're not going to describe that for the audio feed. I want to ask about this watermelon berry lemonade freeze because that's the other topical item that was the other thing in the new thing. You didn't get it? Couldn't get it. I couldn't. I got that one and I will say you didn't miss much. Natalie thought it was just like kind of a putrid.

I think it was just generally sort of sweet but it was just too sciency. You know what's, you have something that's just like the flavors are too like chemically. It was just that. It was, I didn't taste much berry. I tasted a good amount of citrus from the lemonade, but the watermelon tasted super artificial.

Natalie was like, it was like a slurpy with too much ice in it. Like the texture was not quite right either. I was just kind of overall bummed out by this. And I do like the Baja blast. So, you know, I would have much rather had that instead. I like the Baja Blast too, but I want with a diapypsy.

I try not to drink sugar, but I wanted to try the frozen drink. I also got a cheese gourdita crunch. And why is it wasn't the best thing? It was like a so-so cheesy gourd eater crunch. And why is it wasn't the best thing? It was like a so, so cheesy gourd eater crunch. Like the shell had kind of was kind of soft. I didn't even take me that long to get home. But the Quincy Taco Bell did a great job

besides that. And then I got to get to my bite of the night. Besides the chili verde fries, the steak chili verde fries is maybe my bite of the night, but then. And I got the cinnamon twists and they were great. I haven't had cinnamon twist in a long time. And they it was a fresh batch or something. They were fantastic.

Yeah, I got some cinnamon twists. I mine were not like, you know, they were a little bit stale or tasting, but I think those get the job done. I think that's the best sweet treat you have at Taco Bell as far as something to munch on. I usually don't get them because like if I'm gonna have those calories of sugar, I'd rather just again, get like a big soda or a blast or something.

And I don't really have much occasion to get the cinnamon twist. But I think they're very functional. I think if the job done, some nice crunch. Do you guys remember like the precursor to the cinnamon twist? Were they would just fry the tortilla squares with cinnamon and sugar? Oh, that's right. Yes. Yeah.

They were like a little sweet chips. Why did that ever go away? How did those were fun? Yeah. That's a great question. I don't know why. They shouldn't bring them back. But it was very solid, but man,

I was every time I have one, that's all I think about is like, man, when I was trying, it was like, yeah. Well, I was, every time I have one, that's all I think about is like, man, what happened to those triangles? Yeah. Well, I was going to ask you, you grew up on, on, on Disney ground. You were Churros fan? You like Churros? So when I was there, the Churro wasn't as popular as it is.

I think it kind of like between like the late 90s, early 2000s, by then my dad was, you know, not, not there. But I will say this going back to the park and then gone back several times over my lifetime. I have become a big Turo fan and the Disneyland Churros, a pretty special thing. They're pretty great. And that's to me when I when I when I would have the sentiment you asked from Taco Bell, I was like, oh, they're like too crunchy and they're kind of dry. And I'm like, with the, with the churros, you kind of get like more of like a, how is that? Like more of a, you get it?

With the, with the, with the churros, you get more of like a, it's like more of a baked item that you're, well, the grip helps with the texture. A nice soft, a nice soft, uh, churro, you know, you get the warmth of it. Yeah, it's warm. It's warm and it's like hard on the outside. Then like once you get in your mouth, this is very soft and gooey, right? But this is our two, man. That's why I'm too, you know, they're fantastic. And these are more, these are more like, it's almost like eating cereal or something to me.

It's like they're very crunchy. Those feel like the nephew of the churro that it doesn't really like to talk about. Or the sentiment to it is mine. Yeah, he's doing okay. He's a good guy. Yeah, he's doing his thing. He says something like that.

Oh, he's doing his thing. He's like, that. He's like, he's, he's been talking about open a business. What's the business? Oh, I don't know. Really. I'm really excited for him. You know, who's wearing a shirt that said like a golden plate club. I didn't know what that was about. But he's podcast. Yeah. Yeah. Said there's a VIP meet and greet. I don't know what that's about. He's running a discord for the doughboys. This is, yeah, I don't know. I mean, this wasn't the best outing for Taco Bell But I still have so much affection for this place.

So Joe, here's how this will work. We'll each go around. We'll give a closing argument, if you will, on this particular chain talk about, you can talk about this experience, you can talk about a lifetime of experiences and then end that by giving a score from zero to five forks. We begin with our guest. So your thoughts, your forks score. You know, talk about strikes me as a chain restaurant and a bit of flux. It can't figure out what it

wants to be trying to break into the American market with the fries. Yet at the same time, honor its traditional Mexican roots with several offerings that many of us don't really understand. But that's okay. I know this much about Taco Bell. It's baseline items are always good and always there. And like I said before,

I look forward to a good old bean and cheese burrito. Just don't wrap it in another torturatoria. Deep fry that and maybe throw some sour cream on top of it with some strawberry sauce. That's when it gets weird. So my final score for Taco Bell. And all its greatness is a solid three forks. Because the potential is there.

The potential is there for greatness. But boys, we got to get it over the finish line. Wow. Wow. Yo, that was probably the best review we've ever had. And at the same time, it broke my heart. I love talking about it. Because the truth gets in your feelings, dog. All right.

I didn't come here to blow smoke up the asses, bro. I don't got that much in me, you know, smokeless asses on this podcast, okay? Cause I'm not blowing any on in. Fuck. Man, I can't, well, I can't beat that review. What a promo. I mean, that was, I mean, fuck. That was like, it was, that was so professional and it also kind of felt like we were being made fun of. So I appreciate both sides. So when, when we, Nick and I were backstage with Evan Susser, that's right. That's right.

When we walked by, was it that sort of thing of like, like a guy who's to hang out with these kids and then he went to high school first and then like, they came to high school and they're clearly nerds where you're like, oh God, I gotta say hi to these guys. And I don't know. Oh, no, not at all. I was more like, wow, you let him backstage, okay?

And then I was like, I should go say hi. I should go say hi. I should go say hi. I should go say hi. I should go so high. I should go so high. I would, yeah, that would be cool for me. They tried to not, they tried to not let us backstage. It did happen. Yeah, I was like, it was, it was, we were, we were, we had to, we had to jump through some, some, some,

yeah, I can only be this to security so much. And apparently, I don't think so. Like, I went like this, he's like, bring him over there. And I'm like, bring him over here. No. We're sick of them crying near us. We're gonna let him back. But you guys have fun though.

I mean, I know it was the first wrestling event for many of you, I think. And we had a little time. We had a lot of fun. We had a lot of fun. I've been a tennis show, but it does a first, my first time, we've like kind of backstage at a big, it was like kind of like an amazing experience. Yeah, I thought the spread was great We talked about the food the food is really good. You guys like it set up. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I got a W. They do good catering I will say this between a W W W the big come day. They do a good job with the catering in the back

You know, so wow, everybody fed well Almost got ran over by the dirt sheets That it needs some mouthful pile. Get all the way. I don't know what happened. Yeah. Move son of a bitch. No need you.

The jargon's on when his blood sugar get low. I'm just saying, you know, you'll get that. It's toe boys like that's toe boys. Ask we we try to go. We try to go. We were like walking around backstage and like Clearly didn't belong, you know what I mean? Like you can and we went a little too far to a spot where I think was just literally

Your guys like changing rooms or locker rooms and it was like Jericho walking into that dude just bunch of big dudes like half-naked like talking over stuff They kind of staring, look at you. Yeah. MJF called us marks and Jericho kind of stared us down. I was it was it was great. I'd say you guys probably ventured into unknown territory. Yeah.

We we need right wise. We nearly went to Oh yeah. No, I was terrified. We had a blast. We had a great time. Yeah. Look Taco Bell is a five-four restaurant to me. This outing, if you want me to rank this outing and be honest with it, I think this outing was probably four and a quarter forks for me, but I had a good, I had a good outing.

I didn't have like a great five-fourker, which I know Taco Bell can do. Joe, I get what you're saying. I think some of the, we got mad at the place because they pulled back some of the items that we loved and then now they have, now when they highlight an item like you're saying, it could be a big swing and a huge miss. So that's, I think that is an issue now

with the new Taco Bell. But I love it. And you know what? I got new found respect for the cinnamon twists. I think you're right that they are the dopey cousin of jurors, but for for for for a snack for a late night snack. Wags, I don't know.

I think they're pretty decent and they fit the twisted metal month, so the twisted month, though. So I like them. And I'm going to go, I gotta go, I always going to go five forks. I'm just going to go five forks. I'm sorry, Joe. I'm embarrassed. I'm going to go.

No apologies. You know, I mean, if it's five forks, it's five forks to you, you know, look, if that's what the fans of your podcast know your five forks is, you know, I know my five forks is, I don't go throw my forks just into any place. Will you know, you know, some of us a little bit more liberal with our fork, right? So it's okay, you know, you like to have your forks all out there for the world to see in their business. I like to keep my forks a little bit closer in my chest. So it's just a difference of opinion, man.

It's no big deal. Wow. I was gonna say this, if there's any ass out there that needs smoke blown into it, I'll do it. I, I'm a smoke blower wags. I love Taco Bell. And my experience was good, but I wonder what nickel do because he had a bad outing.

Yeah, I didn't have a great outing. And boy, Joe, really laid into you there for the way you threw your forks around. And so, uh, everywhere. Yeah. And so, you know, taking those two factors into account, I have to go five forks. I do love Taco Bell. It's nasty. These chain, you know, it's nasty in a different way than Tommy's and they say that with affection

for both places. But it is the same sort of thing. Like, this is sometimes, Taco Bell is sometimes exactly what you want. And even though these particular menu items weren't hitting, which I think is like kind of like, to be kind of your, one of your key points, Joe, is just like some of their sporadic seasonal items, other new items don't really hit,

but I think their core menu is so solid that there's always something that I'm gonna want from there. And I do really like their app, and I love how friendly they are to people who eat less meat and want trashy food, and so for that reason, five forks. I, hey, that was her if you have touched about it. Yeah.

I got a depressing image in my head of, like a doughboys listener with their headphones on as like fireworks are going off outside, and they're just inside of their own. Listen to this dog, shit. Yeah. Do five for. Yes. Honey, will you cut? Will you call the cops on the neighbors? The fireworks are too loud. I can't hear the doughboys forks score. All right.

Player Diablo, betas. Sure thing, baby, like the hottest to woman on earth. Yeah. The boys, the beta wives have the most attractive wives as well. The beta boys. I choose all of our listeners are married to that's only because the beta boys think every woman's beautiful. That's true.

Hey, man. Why, out of the golden play club. Yeah, out of the golden play club, I'm the platinum play club, but you know what? I have a feeling. You did your work. It's fucking, we just fucking took it down. But I have a feeling, Mitch, we just might review Taco Bell

a ninth time. I'm just guessing. Hey, it's not for a segment. Yeah, I'm pretty sure we will. This is from Amelia and our associate producer, Amelia. I read the... Before you get into this, because I should also warn Joe that this is going to be stupid as hell, whatever it is. Yeah, unlike the rest of the podcast, so far.

Yeah, okay. We knew this would detect any of that of that thus far. Okay, cool. I'm ready. I mean, we bear down here. I was going to say that people are going to get Mac. I have to bring it up. It's dorky to bring it up. But people are going to be mad that we didn't do Wendy's because of your famous line, which I won't quote, but people would want us to do Wendy's. We didn't. That's exactly what people would. That's what. So get, be prepared for 1000 tweets at you about us not. Oh, why we didn't do Wendy's. I know. I know. Yeah. And I think it was the right. Because we knew it because we'll tell them right because we

knew it upset them. And we don't care about their feelings, right? Remember how we talked about that for a start of the podcast? Exactly. We should do that. I'm like, I don't know. And you're like, no, don't do when he's screw those people. Ah, my Mr. Suck. I remember you said that. So we're going to get it.

I will go on record to saying, our listeners do suck. Yeah. Oh. Oh. Joe, they start buying more. I want to say, we like tearing that. Joe, I need to hear your. I need to hear your. I need your forescore for Tommy's before we go

on what if Taco Bells agreed to you, what is Tommy's in in forks? What's your Tommy? It's it's a four four could not be a five simply because it's not there's nothing five anything about Tommy's burgers. I mean, you know, you bear, it's an experience you barely survive. It's not one that you go away from unscathed. You know, it's a battle. It's something you got to mentally prepare for. And, you know,

nobody, nobody puts five forks on that. You know, you put four and you put that last fork in between your teeth and you go down there, you're greeting and bear it and get that damn chili cheeseburger. that's how it works. That's how it works. Good score, great score. I think I'm with you. I think Tom is the best worker. Here's a segment, Mitch.

Okay, I'm gonna read this and I'll just read this and we'll get into it. This is from our associate producer, Miele Marino. All right. This is her words. I'm prefacing this by saying, Mitch asked me to come up with something insane. Let me know if this segment doesn't make sense.

So I read this and then I stopped reading because- I said come up with something called twisted, something twisted. The direction she took was something insane. So we will take it from there. I read this and I was like, I'm not gonna read the rest till we get on the air.

So I will also be surprised along with you. Here we go. Mitchell versus the machines. Mitch and Joe are at an ice cream parlor where the machines can mix and match unusual flavors to create a twist. Each machine has its own theme and both Mitch and Joe must come up with two flavor combinations to create the best twist. For instance, for the snack machine, the two twists Mitch might come up with are cool ranch Doritos and diet coke. Joe might say M&M's and an apple. It is then up to the machine, wiker, okay.

To determine which twist is more appealing, if the machine accepts a twist, that person gets M-night Shyamalan, which is a good thing. If the machine rejects a twist, they in six sense fashion are dead the whole time. The person who gets M night Shyamalan, the most is the most twisted AKA the winner.

So one of you is gonna get M nighted and one of you is gonna get dead the whole time. I guess it's up to me to decide. Okay, I'm confused. I gotta question for you. Yeah, is your producer chat G.P.T.? What is that? What is that? I listen confused. I got a question for you. Yeah, is your producer chat GPT? What is that?

I listen carefully. I listen carefully. Do you say every word off that paper? And I still don't know what the hell is going on. My thought is that Amelia's mad at us. We made her mad at us somehow. To be fair, I just looked at the conversation when we started talking about this and the the direct request was, can you come up with some insane bullshit for tomorrow?

So that's pretty insane. It is. Yeah, it's true. She took the note. My fault. Yeah, she went crazy when she wrote that. I can tell that. I kind of love, I kind of get it. But Wags, are you going to ask us, is it in categories or no? Yeah, so she gave me a list of categories for machines. Then I guess from that, you say two things that might be in that machine, and I am going

to say who has the better combo. All right, so let's start things simple with fruit machine. There's a machine that dispenses fruit. What is your twist from a fruit machine? Now, do the two things have to be a fruit? I think so. In my case, picturing it like, you know, the soft serve, yeah, soft serve ice cream machines where you have like chocolate on one side and vanilla I think so. I think that's how it works. And I thought I was picturing it like, you know, those soft serve, or yeah, soft serve ice cream machines

where you have like chocolate on one side and vanilla on the other. And you can do one or the other or you can twist them. I was picturing it like that kind of machine. Yeah, okay. Okay, for fruit, I think I got it, Wags. Okay. Okay, I think I got one too.

For fruit, I'm gonna mix up apples, pineapples, and then some other regular apple, you know what I'm saying? Pineapple and regular apple. And a regular apple. Pineapple and apple. Yeah. Okay. Not that bad. All right, that's making sense. Yeah. Okay. Not that bad.

All right, that's meant to be. Use that sucks. I didn't say anything. I didn't, I'm not rendering any judgment at all. Telling you're writing something down? Yeah, I gotta write these down because I'm the machine. I have to decide who gets M. Knight Shyamalan.

Okay. Were you even fucking listening? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha All right, I'm gonna give this shot. So I'm gonna go with, I'm gonna go with pineapple too, but I'm gonna mix it with chili pepper. Wow. Fuck. That, this one's easy for me because you know, I'm a bit of a heat seeker, and I do love that combination.

The, the spiciness brings out the sweetness. Joe gets M night shaman wand, which is a good thing. So you have one point. Yes. I've been dead the whole time. Yeah, you've been dead the whole time. You're a ghost. Nobody pays attention to you. Well, I wasn't pineapple and apple. All right, go on. Next up up live event snack machine Okay live event snack machine so this means live event snack machine What the fuck does she mean?

That's a great question and I have no other context Well I do quite a bit of live events so I think we're talking about like stadium food arena food. Oh sure that makes sense yeah Oh okay all right okay all right oh I got oh fuck that's I think we're talking about stadium food, arena food. Oh, sure, that makes sense. Yeah. Oh, okay. All right. Okay. All right. Oh, I got, oh, fuck, that's, I got one.

Got one? Okay. I got one. I'm gonna go, I'll go first this time. I mean, I'll switch it up. I was kinda scared the last time. Totally sniped your thing. Yeah, you don't need to scout me, you've seen.

I'll just pick the same thing you picked, but then I better second ingredient. That's my whole thing. Okay. Okay. Uh, uh, uh, uh, ooh, let's go a, uh, a soft pretzel and a caramel apple. Wow.

Ooh. That's fucking good. Okay. I got one. I do got one. I just changed it in my head. But not to anything. What I was gonna say was pretzel and a patdog and then I'm like, those exist.

Yeah. Basically, sure. But I'm gonna go with, that's my off food and this kind of exists too. Why don't I go with a beer wags and a frozen lemonade, like a frozen ice lemonade. Ooh, you son of a bee. That's pretty good, right?

That is. It's, that's a lot of fun. This is a tough one. I'm gonna give it to Mitch, I'm gonna give it to Mitch for creativity's sake. And I also think that's like very refreshing, which I think is huge at a lot, depending on the live event.

But yeah, like a, like a brew dog and something frozen that can just hit you just right. I thought he was gonna be afraid to give any to me, Joe. So this is huge. That I won't want. I'm, I'm the machine. I feel nothing. Yeah, I'm just here to be a neutral arbiter. By the way, Mitch, just hypothetically, if you'd said

Churro, how, what would you, how would you be in that? Probably a little like. Oh, God, I got it. I hear if you do that, the cinnamon sugar, it spills into your mouth. It's gonna be sure you got to go like a right, right, right, it's a better angle. Yeah. That's the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that.

I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that.

I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that.

I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. Fast food logo. Okay, I think I got it. Okay, match has it. Oh, it has to be a logo.

Okay, I was thinking of like the characters. Can it be the characters or has to be the logo? I mean, it says logos. I guess you could try to get a carry. I would think if the character is part of a logo, to me that's allowable, but if you're just gonna say like grimace. It's like grimace isn't in the McDonald's signage anywhere, but like the kernel is part of the logo to me that's allowable, but if you're just gonna say like grimace, it's like grimace isn't in the McDonald's signage anywhere,

but like the kernel is part of the KFC logo. Or the Jolly B, I think the Jolly B is up for grabs. Okay, I'm gonna go Wendy's. Wow, in the Jolly B, I'm gonna make a hot B. Wow. A hot red headed B. A hot red headed B. A hot red headed B. All right, all right.

I'm trying to, I'm trying to, I'm trying to appeal to the doughboys listeners who I think we're like, I think I got, I think I got. Yeah. We're gonna go. The South's favorite chicken sandwich restaurant.

We're gonna take that logo. We're gonna bathe it in flames because you're going to chick the flames. Wow. I love that. That's badass. And you know what, I think that's in the spirit of being twisted.

So I'm gonna give, I'm gonna give that one to Joe. Joe gets em knighted. That, I had a dream last night that, that there was a thing called the Wendy's movie. And that it was like a like it was like a very dark gritty crime like drama. But it was like the. I was Dave Thomas like being like Liam Neeson finding Wendy's. I mean, that's a movie. I have a very special set of skills. I got to get my job of funny or die back.

That would absolutely work. I think that, yeah, that's a, I don't remember the details I just remember being like gritty and then it was called, and I was like, what movie is this? And then like, I think maybe my sister, and I was like, that's the Wendy's movie. I was like, oh, okay, I guess that exists.

But then in the dream. It's a dream that you're so matter of factly and like, you got the, you didn't exists. But then in the dream, it's a matter of factly and like, you didn't understand. It's the Wendy's movie, jerk face. Oh, run. He was the Wendy's movie, this guy. Why is it, I think this is the first time

I've ever sincerely said this. Yeah. But I think that we should maybe stop doing this podcast. Okay. If I can, we should maybe stop doing this podcast. Okay. If we can have that be a discussion. If you're dreaming about the Wendy's movie, it just seems like it's... It seems like it's come to an end, right? You think I wouldn't be dreaming about that if we weren't doing this podcast?

Like that's just like... Just monetizing what's going on in my subconscious anyway just All right next up. Oh here we go pro wrestler machine. Oh shit. We're in Frankenstein territory All right, I got well, I'll go first. Okay I'm gonna mix. Bandito, do you know band, you know, you know band. Yeah, I don't. Well, I flying a high flying man with the toughest son of a bitch.

There is Samoa Joe. Oh, wow. Oh, whoo, unstoppable. That's, that's pretty good. That's a force to fucking machine. Samoa Joe wow Unstoppable that's that's pretty good force. It's a fucking machine. I Should have missed I should have you know what can I take it back? Yeah Can I joke because I wanted to I wanted to include you in mine But I now thought of something and I want it and I and I got to do it. Okay. I want to mix Goldberg and Gilbert. Okay.

So you're attracting Bandito and Samoa Joe and Goldberg and Gilbert. Cause I think you probably would have won. I think you just become a Joe, but I know. But I think I just, I think that it just becomes Berg. I guess it just can't stop to Berg. Yeah. It's just like a guy

Or gold gill if you just the You don't you like my second version better? I think I think your second version, you know, you know It sounds like they just cancel each other out So I can have a break equation. Yeah Let me see here. Oh, okay. I'm gonna go. Macho man Randy Savage. Wow. And Hawaii's favorite breakfast meet spam and do Macho spam Randy's. I'm good at to Jim. Well, Macho spam Randy Hamidge. There we go.

There you go. Joe's having more fun with it than I am. Oh, yeah. You're stressing out. That's the thing. You gotta get a real axe. You're saying the fence is getting. Yeah. Tick the infield double. It's all right. All right. We'll do a couple more. Next one. Body parts machine. What the body parts? This is, this is also very Frankenstein.

Yeah, it's creepy. I'm gonna go and elbow makes with an asshole so people can know the difference. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha L hole or an aspo take your back.

Got it, with nips. So basically just like the two things you can't like show on TV basically.

So with nips you'd have little hogs. Each nip has a little hog. Yeah, I'm picturing it and it's absolutely disgusting. I hated hearing it. I'm gonna give this one to Joe absolutely disgusting. I hated hearing it. I'm gonna give this one to Joe as well. I would have liked to have given it to you so we could have like a tie going into the finale, but that's a thing.

No, it's a penis, you know? Yeah.

Now I would say like, look, I'm just saying, again, I'm the machine. I'm not, I'm not supposed to weigh in here, but I think you could take something that's like a literal twist if you wanted,

like a thing that's actually, like actually, I think that's one way to go. I think you'd take something that's a metaphorical twist. I think everything is up for grabs. Got it. Twist machine. I think I know what I'm gonna do. Yeah. And it's not good, but I, but I, but I, I'm gonna, I'm gonna go with this, Wags. I'm gonna go with it. It's the two famous.

Wow. It's, it's not good. You're saying, Mitch? Hold on. I just want to be prepared for this. Because I'm just looking at your other answers. I'm like, wait, so this one's not gonna get any better. Hogs and nips was good. You know, hogs and nips were pretty good. You know that wasn't bad. No, that was good. I think I'm gonna go... Mick Flurry machine, Wigz. Wow.

And a blizzard machine. I'm fucking mixing up both of them. That's the most twisted fucking thing you can get. Yeah, you're blending every every mix in and every layer of ice cream there. That's pretty good. All right, all right. I'm gonna go Just just about to destroy me We That's a tough one. I'm gonna go and twist it T. Ooh. With, oh, with twisted sour patch kids. Oh, I like that.

Wow. These two color, pusaur patch kids. That sounds like something I would wanna drink so bad. We should have some after this. That sounds good actually. That sounds like something I would want to drink so bad. We should have some after this. That sounds good Actually, that sounds fun. We should stuff a bunch of John stuff a bunch of Sour Patch kids into a twisted T. Yeah, and then just what twisted T is weirdly huge in New England I don't know. Is it big and is it big down in Florida Joe? I'm not saying alcohol in general is pretty popular down here. I don't know if you all know. Sorry, a preference thing is more just like, you know, has it fermented?

All right, bringing on down. So yeah, I guess it is. A twisted tea, someone was mixing a twisted tea and like a lemonade drink, like a hard lemonade online and making like an Arnold, Arnold Palmer. Oh, a twisted olive hunger? Come on, that's right. Yeah, that sounds great. See, that's like PJ live golf coming together.

That's what that drink is. There you go. Find like that. Man, can't be, I insane that PGA was just like, we bought them after all that. Yeah, after all that. Yeah, after all that. All that shit. Crazy.

Emma is, but because in California, Twisted T's not huge, right? Like, I don't know, I think it's, they say it's, I think you can find it, but I don't think of it as like, it's, it's like a big thing that people drink, you know, but also it's, like summertime huge. Emma knows. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, gigantic.

I that these are both good. I'm gonna give this one to Mitch just because that sounds like a great sweet treat on a summer day. Uh, which makes the final score, uh, Joe for Mitch to, uh, and in a twist, Emma wins. Congratulations. I'm a great girl winner. Yeah. What a twist. I'm gonna go get a twisted T. It's like 4 p.m. All right. Just like a restaurant, I buy your feedback. Let's open up the feedback.

Today's email is from Curtis. Curtis writes, hi to everyone at Doe Boys Media and the Hunk's at Head Gum. This is Curtis and Vancouver wondering how you handle ordering menu items with embarrassing names. Denny's is the classic example. Even if I really wanted, I just can't look another human being in the eye and say moon over my hammy. What are your strategies? Do you try to work around it? I'll have the moon pointed the menu and say this one or in true do boys listener fashion. Do you just get your partner to order it for you?

This is a, you know, this also makes me think of an iHot menu item, which was the boy's listener fashion, do you just get your partner to order it for you? This also makes me think of an iHOP menu item, which was the- Rudy Tutti fresh and fruity. Yeah, exactly. And that was when I liked actually, and I would just like straight up order it, but I remember, but I was also like a kid, so it was kind of like excited to say it.

So if I got one now and now it is, I think I'd still be okay saying it, you know, I don't think it'd be too self conscious, but I don't know. I do get like a little bit nervous when I'm ordering men like in general, because I'm like, worried I'm going to fuck something up and say the wrong thing. You know what I mean? It was funny. Go ahead.

Joe, were we going to say, no, no, Joey, what are you going to say? I was going to say, you know, guys, let's look at the macro here. You know, we're in a denny's. Like, are we really worried about the pains of people in a denny's? You know, are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we? Are we sitting around looking at the guy at the coffee counter over there going, man, I hope he doesn't think I'm weird. Like, guys sitting at the coffee counter in a denny's in the middle of the day, you think he's

having a weird day already. Let's be honest here. I mean, I think this is why I go, this is the problem that does not need an answer. All this, all this needs is brother order your moons over my hammy. That's not even that ridiculous of a named meal. And you're in Denny's dude. Nobody, nobody that he's touching you has any, any, any ability to affect your life.

Trust me, man. Like, I think you're right. Joe, you're 100% right. I, that being said, I do get self-conscious. I, I, just getting a large, I ordered a large Pepsi today and I was like a large die Pepsi. And even that where I was just saying a large, and then that's what came back to me. Super size.

Super size. Super size and biggie size to me. They're gone now and I loved them and I wish they were back. But saying super size was the thing that kind of made me embarrassed, I guess, was to be like, I want like the biggest thing that there is. I want the super sized version of it. I weirdly didn't have an issue with super size, but I did have it with biggie size, and I think because biggie was like a little bit more awkward

to say, but super sized. It was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And just saying, you know, asking for biggie anything just sounds kind of weird. Yeah. I'm like a biggie, please. You know what's embarrassing for me is when I go to Wendy's and I'm like,

I love a good number six with a Baba and I asked for like a Baba, you know, like a, right model. Do you have a change in the way that fits a grown man? The, you know, you know, one thing I actually get self-conscious about is like, if I'm like an Italian restaurant or something and there's like, like, just, it's like in Italian, like some certain sauces or certain like wines and stuff, that's things. And my move is I'll just be like, and I'll just point to it and be like, how do you pronounce this? Or I would just plead ignorance because I'm fine looking dumb or whatever. I know what I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do say it. Yeah. Say what the fuck? How the fuck do you say this year, Italian freaks? Hey,

I'm curious Emma was a lot of means. How was it? What's the deal with this? Hahaha. Hahaha. I'm curious. Emma was a Emma attended bar for for many years. Emma, I'm curious as a from the server's perspective, was there ever like were you ever put off by how someone ordered something or were there ever certain drinks that someone would order in the way they said it or them. They're hearing it would make it a little cringe. Not really.

Most of the time, I used to work at a Sharkootier restaurant and a lot of people can't say prosciutto. I got a lot of like sweeto and like a lot of just completely different words. And honestly pointing at them at me and being like, how do you say this? Why is like you said is probably the best way to do it because partially you don't want them to like think

you're talking about something else and bring you the wrong food or the wrong wine or whatever it is. We used to have a beer called the Raging Bitch on draft for a while and people had a hard time with that one. Like, I want the raging and then they just like trail off and you're like the raging bitch. But I don't think the server is not going to remember it two seconds later. So don't worry about it. I wouldn't be the server's not gonna remember it two seconds later, so don't worry about it.

I wouldn't be able to say that. I was with Mookie once, Mitch, our buddy Mookie, I was with Mookie and our friend Eva Anderson, and we got drinks. They were both on my side town, we got drinks once, and there's a mama's little yellow pills, and I accidentally said, can I get the little yellow piss?

And I thought that no one heard me, and I just like, there's like fine get the little yellow piss? And I thought that like no one heard me and I just like, there's like fine. And then Mookie immediately was like, Little yellow piss all out. That's like, fuck. So I'm bare to say. I'm just shocked that you were out. You met them out at a bar.

They came, they came to my side to town and we went for happy hour. So the, the, the, the, the planets aligned wasn't too late. Maybe just mentioned this to me recently. Did you leave shortly after that? Were you not there long? Yeah, I mean, I got out there. Yeah.

Was it happy? The story. I think you told me this story that he went to your side town and got a drink and you left like, we hung out for a bit. Okay. All right. Yeah. I think, I think, I think it's more on like,

well, if your place is gonna name it, like Joe said, you shouldn't be embarrassed for saying it in front of anybody. It doesn't matter. Right. But it's kind of like reinforces my point. I've sat in millions of waffle houses and watched people with no problem whatsoever

scream, smothered, chunked, covered, and in chocolate and moving the hash browns with no problem. So it's like, just order it, man. Disorder it's a good get over it. chunk covered in in in chocolate and hash browns with no problem. So it's like, yeah, just order it, man. Just order it. It's a good get over it. But also like the raging bitch would be hard for me to that's that's like one don't don't name your stuff that I guess local businesses. That's that's always sucks.

Yeah, you just use harsh harsh letters and that you know, oh, I need the raging B. There you go. What did they do? There you go. What did you do? It's what I do it. If you know, oh, I need the raging bee. There you go. That's what it is. There you go. That's what it is. If you have a question or comment about the world of chain restaurants,
