He talked us through the whole thing,
Starting point is 00:02:37 and the three of us felt super high. If that white boy wasn't a career criminal, he could have been a professional hypnotist, but he was, in fact, a career criminal. He was Charles Manson. This is a memory of a shared stay in a county jail as told by actor Danny Trejo. Excered from his memoir, Trejo, co-written with actor Donal Logue, this wild encounter with a notorious, criminal is just one incident from the hard-scrabble youth of the now-beloved character actor, which included drug dealing in a series of jail sentences that he survived by becoming a prison prize fighter. After finally being liberated from the penal system and the throes of his own addiction, Trejo first worked in sobriety in L.A. before entering the entertainment industry by chance,
Starting point is 00:03:22 first as a personal trainer, then as a featured extra, then finally ascending to the speaking roles that would become his legacy. With memorable parts in the Nicholas Cage action flick Conair, the Chicano crime epic Blood In Blood In, in which he performed scenes in a prison cell he once served time in, and as a fixture of Robert Rodriguez's company in Desperato, from Dust Tell Dawn, and Spy Kids, Trejo became one of cinema's most reliable and recognizable tough guys. And in 2016, having ascended to lead in Rodriguez's machete franchise, Trejo opened an eponymous taco shop in the heart of Hollywood. The canteena was as much a breakout star in L.A.'s food scene as Trejo himself and Michael Mann's Heat,
Starting point is 00:04:07 and today has a half-dozen Southland locations, as well as separate donut and spirit brands. Also in his memoir, again, co-written with Donal Logue, if you can believe that. Trejo writes, quote, Prison is a waste of the best years in a person's life. Or maybe, for the now 81-year-old Trejo, prison was just a prelude for the best years to come. This week on Doe Boys, Trejo's Tacos. Welcome to Doe Boys, the podcast about chain restaurants. I'm Tiger Weiger, along with my co-host, Zepbound and Down, the spoon man, Mike Mitchell.
Starting point is 00:05:04 An eastbound and down reference. A play on Eastbound and Down in case that wasn't obvious. Hello, Doe Boys crew and guests. I was watching a TikTok clip from a 2024 episode and could really see how much weight Mitch has lost since then. I wanted to send my praise of your way and encourage you to keep it up. You look great. Also, I was watching... That's kind.
Starting point is 00:05:20 Also, I was watching the first Toby McGuire Spider-Man the other night. Notice a very interesting truck. I thought I'd share it with you guys. Sam C. Here's the screen cap they sent. We noticed that... Carlsberg. That's right.
Starting point is 00:05:32 It is Spider-Man next to a Carlsberg beer truck. So a reference to your... I think is the state of Carlsberg helped Trump win the election, if I remember correctly. This was your mention of Carlsberg, like years ago. go. This was like the 2020 election? Jesus Christ. Was it that long ago? Yeah. Oh, wait, so Trump didn't win that. Trump didn't win. Oh yeah, because, you know, I think
Starting point is 00:05:55 I was in my basement in Quincy. That's right. You were remote. And Paul Rust was the guest, is that right? Paul Rust and Michael Cassidy were both the guests. Don't Stop or we'll die. And no one got what I meant when I said it. We were very confused. You know, it happens a lot, Wikes. What can I do?
Starting point is 00:06:12 That's a nice thing to say. Yeah, how about that? I get cranky when someone comments on how you look. Is that weird? Even a compliment? Yeah, I don't know. I do get like, it's kind of hard to take a compliment sometimes.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Yeah, maybe that's, I mean, I mean, it's very nice. Yeah. But my mom will always be like, you look good. I'm like, shut up. I like, I don't say shut up. But I'm just like, I'm just like, I'm like, all right. I'm like, thanks, ma. I like, uh, yeah, sure.
Starting point is 00:06:37 Or she'll let me like, you look much better. I'm like, you think I was happy with how I looked. Yeah, sure. Yeah. I just took this shit so I don't die, you know, you don't see me die. is basically why I took this drug. You weren't taking it for purely aesthetic reasons. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:06:51 I look fucking good. I think there's, yes. Sometimes when it's like, hey, you have improved upon your past self, it feels a little bit backhanded. So I do get that. I do understand that. But when people tell me I look good, I love it. Oh, whoopty-do. You're gracious, and I'm angry.
Starting point is 00:07:13 It's nice. It's a nice thing to hear, of course. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. is. I wish I get more compliments on, I'm taking monocidol and as we've said,
Starting point is 00:07:25 just recently my pubs are growing and I wish I get more compliments on that. It means you have to show them off. Yeah, you do have to get show them off. Should I wear low, low jeans to just show my bush off? Yeah, just show a little bit of bush. People used to show bush a little bit more in the world. Yeah, show a little bush or maybe show a half inch of neck.
Starting point is 00:07:41 Just show a little. Start your don'tly fans. Hey, we've talked about it. It's going to happen at some point, once. Yeah, it's inevitable. Howdy-ho! To Spoon Nation. I haven't done that in a minute, I don't think.
Starting point is 00:07:55 Wow. It's back. Maybe it's back. It's a new year. It's a new year. It's my last day at my writing job. Wow. So, yeah, which I've been at since last July,
Starting point is 00:08:04 so it's been a pretty, you know, a pretty busy stretch for old Wags. I feel like you're going to have a nice little break, Wags, and they'll be re-energized to go into the next stretch, nice and miserable. Yeah, we'll see. Still going to have to be doing this show, so. Yeah. Well, something's going to pop off for one of us. And then if something big enough happens for you, you gift the show to me.
Starting point is 00:08:30 That's the way it works. I, uh, wait, what was I going to talk about? I was about to say something that I forgot. You said you haven't said hide a year in a while. But I know, I know what I was thinking of. We're trying not to be too scatological this year. We started the year off for the first episode of a very scatio. very scatological.
Starting point is 00:08:47 And then the double was actually kind of nasty too. But we tried the first record this year. The first two records of this year. Yes, yeah, yeah. People will know when they hear them. We're going to try to tone down the scottological humor. I mean,
Starting point is 00:08:56 no, Amelia, we know you love it, but we're going to try to tone it down a little bit. We know some people, we're a food podcast and shit is the opposite of food. And a lot of people who like food, maybe you're not interested in hearing about shit, even though that is the inevitable result of meeting.
Starting point is 00:09:10 It's like, I'm doing a movie theater. Like, I'm doing a movie podcast. And it's like, you're going to talk about a theater or, you know, popcorn. You know what I mean? Like, that's like, for us, the other side of it is that it just, you have to talk about. What is it due to your gastrointestinal tract?
Starting point is 00:09:23 Yes. And I just got to say, all of us are struggling today. We're struggling today. And I don't know if there should be a whole factor. Like, you know what I mean? About with, with, I'm just saying, with KFC, which we just, we reviewed KFC. Whole factor is in the state of your whole? Yes.
Starting point is 00:09:40 I'm saying like. And this is not being scatological. I'm just saying. anus is different from stool Anus is different than stool And I'm just saying like My hole's in bad shape today I had an audition
Starting point is 00:09:54 And I had to be on it at 335 And I was on the I was had rumblies And I was on the toilet Like five feet away from my computer At 334 I was like
Starting point is 00:10:06 Jesus Christ I was a fucking nightmare I was really scared I was cutting it close I was cutting it really close So You zoom in from the toilet I did not zoom in from the
Starting point is 00:10:15 toilet. Should we set your bathroom up with like a grain screen and some sound dampening so that you can just take your calls from in there? That's not a bad idea. You know it's all you know what it always is happening and when I do auditions as Wally and Irma are always jumping into frame. Oh yeah. That's kind of cute as hell. It is it's kind of it's cute, but sometimes they like knock the tape you know what I mean or like they be like me like me. You know like they'll make a noise and it will kind of like distract me a little. Right. So I don't know. That's fun. I think like, you know, hearing an echo-y toilet blast might be... That would be a little distracting.
Starting point is 00:10:48 Yeah, it might be a little bit distracting. Don't know if the person I'm reading with will enjoy that, but I like it. I do like it. I like the idea of it. Tell them there's like construction outside or something. Every single time. Yeah, yeah. We loaded up on Mexican food and we're going to sit down for a two-hour record.
Starting point is 00:11:07 So there's a ticking clock here. There is a ticking clock, wise. But I had a good time. We'll get into it. Yeah. Anyways, let's hit him with a drop, Emma. Hell yeah. Lettuce rap right now is very much, like, kind of top in the chart.
Starting point is 00:11:20 Do you like the bacon wraps? Jesus. I like that. Oh, but you're like five bacon wraps. Yeah. This is a top divan. Looks like meats back on the menu, boys. Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, fry, fry, fry.
Starting point is 00:11:36 Lord knows, Lord knows, Lord. knows I'm a bacon. Side of hash. I'll tell you we'll make this party a bash. Add some bacon to my plate. Yeah, now breakfast's looking great. Straight L.T is not a Sammy. You got to add bacon.
Starting point is 00:11:55 B.L.T. Put that on the skillet. Then it's time to grill it. Young money cash. Bacon wrap. It's a bacon rap. They assemble it there and it's a chair. I'm some dog.
Starting point is 00:12:07 Lettuce rap. It's a letter. No, it's bullshit. Sizzle, sizz. sizzle That's your signature Just a heavy defeated sigh Did Drop King know
Starting point is 00:12:23 Who our guest was? And specifically... Yes. And so she specifically, like, curated this one to be like... Humilient you in front of a rapper. Yes. I mean, I think that that's what it was
Starting point is 00:12:35 is he's trying to humiliate me in front of a rapper. It was very different tone. Usually they're a little more up. I mean... It was like kind of chopped the screw. Back in the back when I was younger I would freestyle and I was like a better because we know like a lot of improvisers and stuff who freestyle and they're and they can be decent at it. Yeah, sure. I'm not going to say like great or whatever.
Starting point is 00:12:59 Well, it's still, it's like improv freestyle. It's like kind of, it's a different thing. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, yeah, I agree. I agree. I mean, just give them an example, I guess. Yeah, I think you should, you should do it.
Starting point is 00:13:15 No, no, no, no, I insist. You should do it. Mitch, I can't. You're being too kind. I mean, you get what we're talking about. It's like within a scene or whatever. It's like, we've got to get to the car. And then like they're like, it's like more like, like show tunes or something.
Starting point is 00:13:31 Yeah, it's like a show tune to the cadence. Yeah, it is very Hamilton. It's the show tunes to the cadence of hip-hop. Yeah. But I was, I was. And it's like a fish talking about like being baited by a hook or something like. You know, it's like some sort of improv bullshit. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:45 It's clowns talking about their car being too small. Yeah. It's pretty good. Pretty good. But I... I... She's too big and my car's too small. I want to get to the circus, the tent is tall.
Starting point is 00:13:59 Fuck, man. I paid $5 for the show and I was ripped off. It's pretty good. Pretty good. But I used to be a lot better at freestyling and stuff like that. And then as time went on, I just... I really lost that ability quite a bit. And then, yeah, it seems like he was trying to embarrass me
Starting point is 00:14:19 in front of someone who was a good rapper. So I just listened to his album. Our guest, I listened to his album last night. Who set that drop in? I was trying to load at the email and it was not loading, Emma. What the hell? All right. Emma, do you have it over there?
Starting point is 00:14:31 I do. Runner up from the most recent drop-off. Hi, D-K and DoFam. Hope you enjoy the Doe Boys X, Y, KS Posse Cot, a throwback to the iconic 2019 cookout episode, hashtag Big Crew. I'm always obsessed with the way Mitch clearly loves DB while openly hating Jesse Have fun out there
Starting point is 00:14:48 XO XO XO Eva Sativa the drop diva Oh yeah We like Yiva Zetaiva the drop diva Good work drop diva I mean I think we liked it a lot more on the drop-off Because I wasn't just being embarrassed Yeah I guess Maybe we might have discovered something
Starting point is 00:15:03 Maybe Emma should read the email I kind of like the cadence of Emma reading the email Oh so that's why you sent it to you're trying to steal my job I absolutely not I don't know why you're okay I sent it to the wrong email again. This keeps happening. Two in a row.
Starting point is 00:15:17 Which email did you send it to this? I sent this one to Spoonman drops at gmail.com. And then yesterday I sent it to drops at birdfuck.com. So I just, I think send Mitch drop and I type in drop. I think, hey, you know what? I think Amelia should say your roast. She should say the credit for your roast. I love to actually.
Starting point is 00:15:36 I like that. I'd like to upload more of my work to Amelia. Take as much as you want. I'll sit behind that desk. We'd love it. I would love it over here, is what I'm saying. I would. Get him behind the desk.
Starting point is 00:15:51 Get a desk behind the dais. Put you behind that desk. Behind the wall. Yeah, yeah. I mean, it's empty. There's no one working here, so. It's very empty out there today. So Emma forwarded these emails to the email that they were submitted to, which to me sounds like the kind of problem that could be caused by consumption of marijuana.
Starting point is 00:16:11 I'm just speculating. I'm just saying. No, it's possible. It's totally possible. Yeah, instead of being like, hey, we're going to, I don't think it's a reward. I was trying to say we're going to reward you. Emma, we're going to let you now read the drops because you fucked up that you're too high and you fucked up the emails. I don't know about that likes.
Starting point is 00:16:30 Drops at birdfuck.com. Drops at birdfuck.com. Our guest, very excited to have back on the show, a writer-director and musician. His new album, Rebel Love Language is available now. Lamar Woods. Hi, Lamar. Hey, what's up. What's up?
Starting point is 00:16:41 I'm so glad to be back. Thanks so much for being here. I've listened to a rebel love language more than once. I really like it. I really connected with how, like, sincere it is. That's kind of like the riskiest thing I feel like in art, right? It's like just being sincere. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:56 I was actually not even going to do it. I had the whole thing done and I was like, I'm not going to put this out. I was just going to keep it to myself because I was so worried about putting that vulnerability out like that. Right. But I was like, I don't know, just do it. Fuck it. And then we did it. Yeah, it's been, that was a couple weeks ago, like a couple weeks ago.
Starting point is 00:17:15 Yeah. I loved it too. I listened to it last night. Yeah. And I enjoyed it quite a bit. No, I appreciate you text me. I was like, oh, yeah. Anybody who listens to it and tells me they listen to it, it makes me very happy.
Starting point is 00:17:28 Also, the person who listens, I mean, like, someone who listens or watches something sincere and then reaches out to the creator and it's like, you fucking pussy. Like, what's the point? What is the point of that? Right. What are they doing? That's no good. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:17:42 Like, what the fuck? you're going to, and by the way, I think it's sincere in a great way. I think it's like, you're just very open and it's, it's, it's awesome. It's very political. I didn't expect to do that either. Obama is on the Obama. Obama's on there. I got a feature from Obama. Yeah, I text, I was like, he charged me like $500,000. But it was worth it, you know. But, you know, I think like, you know what it was, I was going to do. One of your last albums, Mike Mitchell, a guest voice on it. The next one, Obama.
Starting point is 00:18:15 So you have definitely... It's an exact same spot, too, like halfway through. It's like right where... I usually do a little thing right there. You would definitely upgraded, for sure. No, I should have got you on this one. No, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:18:29 I was very happy. I did have a bit. I was going to do a... So there's this whole thing, and it's so we were... I think we're ahead of our time with the bit on our, on the album. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:38 So there's a stereotype that is like a new black stereotype type, like, you know, like, if you see a black dude who's big, you're like, oh, that guy must play basketball or something, right? So now the new one is you see a black guy in your neighborhood or going to a restaurant by himself, oh, that guy is a postmate's guy. Like, he's coming to pick up food. So we did a bit where Mitch would play at a racist. He was like, he's like, he's like, just go, be like racist and horrible. And I was like, oh, keep it.
Starting point is 00:19:09 Yeah. I was trying to quick. I was like, wait a said, you're so fast. He was like, I'll be right there. Where do you want me to come? It's in Burbank? I'll drive there right now. I'll be on the door.
Starting point is 00:19:19 I was like, we're shooting tomorrow. It's not even today. But then, so I was going to hit you up because I was like, okay, now the new one is, so that was the Uber driver one. And then now the new thing is when I go to the grocery store by myself and I'm getting, I'm taking care. I'm just a guy, a single guy who's buying food for himself. they think that I'm an Instacart person. Oh, wow. So they keep asking me, they go, oh, are you, do you need the receipt?
Starting point is 00:19:49 Like, do you want me to print a couple of receipts? Like, that's what they keep asking me. And I'm like, no, this food's for me. I'm going to eat this. And they're like, oh, I'm sorry. I thought you was like buying it for someone else. As if, like, a black dude can't buy groceries for himself. That's bullshit.
Starting point is 00:20:03 Can I just have a PSA for? I was a reason to recreate that. I mean, I would have had a blast playing that. But just a PSA for, for, for, every white dork out there. You don't have to ask these questions. I think people who are in a place will let you know if you, you know what I'm saying? I don't think that you have to, I don't think people have to be proactive about asking if you're
Starting point is 00:20:22 an Instacart guy or whatever, which by the way, there's no shame in. There's nothing wrong with being an Instacart guy. No, no, it's like, no disrespect. Yeah, but it's just like, you don't, you don't get to ask people those sorts of questions. Yeah, it's so weird. But I think it's more of a, it's probably the neighborhood I'm in, is where, you know, so I'm like, oh, they're not used to seeing people of color in this neighborhood. So when you go in there, they're like...
Starting point is 00:20:42 You live in White Town, right? Yeah, yeah. Just across the way for Filipino Town. But yeah, I think, like, it's just real white. Yeah. A lot of coyotes. People won't be surprised that Do Boys is headquartered in White Town. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:58 I'm not hearing like two minutes. That would have been a good song on the album. That's the only thing. It's a short album. It's only nine songs. It was like quick, you know, but I, um, I was going to do an album about, so I was really into The Bachelor earlier this year, and I had this whole idea where I want to be like a bachelor.
Starting point is 00:21:21 It would be like the story of a guy who got on that show, and then I was going to hit you, or it was between you and P. It was part of Topkins, but I hadn't made a decision yet. You got to lose that job. PFT hadn't made a decision yet, so he didn't ask you. Once he said, no, then I was going to go, all right, okay, bitch. but he would host it. I never even wrote it.
Starting point is 00:21:44 It hasn't even got to paper yet, but it was an idea. And it was like, the whole, each song would be like a different, about a different person, that I'm falling in love with or whatever. And I tried to do it and I was just like,
Starting point is 00:21:56 man, I don't care about any of this. And then it was just like, the world was so fucked up. I was just like, I threw that out and then did this album basically in like two months. It was like a two-month period
Starting point is 00:22:07 where I just went hard and then drop the shit. It was crazy. By the way, I worked on a Bachelor Recap show when I would first, when I first, it was an early birthday voice.
Starting point is 00:22:20 I think I worked on it with like Jeff and Hanford. What were you doing? We would like watch The Bachelor and then we would write up like a thing for this guy. What's Jake Pavelka? Okay. So he's,
Starting point is 00:22:32 I think he's an old school Bachelor cadets. Yeah. And so like we would watch the episode and then we would write a thing and then like Jake Pavelka would film it would be like out the next day. This is like when people did things like which I guess kind of still exists on YouTube or whatever.
Starting point is 00:22:46 But it would be like a reaction video or something. Yeah, it was like him like talking about like what happened. Okay, got. Oh, that's cool. The show almost at all at that point. Right. And then we did like very weird, you know, we did very strange bits that like Jake Pavelka was like,
Starting point is 00:23:00 what the fuck is this? It was like old sketch dorks like trying to make a bachelor recap thing funny. Yeah, that's great. We were like, it was like, It's the Bachelor Recapsular with Jacob of Elko. He's like, what, and I'm going to be like, we think it sounds funny. He's like, I don't want to say that. Where am I?
Starting point is 00:23:15 Why am I? That's so funny. But, yeah, so I appreciate y'all liking it, man. That's, that means a lot. Of course, yeah, yeah. And can you talk about the production a little bit? Because we're talking about this beforehand. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:29 So this dude, Ethan, he's out of the UK. He's like, I found him because they got these, when you go on, If you don't know, like, where to find beats and shit, you could go on YouTube and just be like, I want a Nas type beat or whatever. And they'll give you, like, a beat that sounds like something Nas would rap to. So I kind of did something like that. And it was like a lot of boom-bab East Coast, like old-school hip-hop type of style. That's what I said. This is, I mean, this is, it was going to sound dorking about, like, it reminded me of some older J-Z albums or something.
Starting point is 00:23:58 Yeah. Oh, yeah. That was definitely like, I wanted to, I think I was like, because I knew the album was political, I wanted to go in that old-school hip-hop direct. Just to be like in my bag like I want to just rap like I'm just rapping like it's real it's real rapy You know but the but he hit me up because I bought like one beat for him for my other album Highly Sensitive person and then I like is one of my favorite songs on the album and then he hit me up like I really like the song if you want to do a collab let me know and I was like yeah let's do it And then he sent me a pack and then I just went in and crazy I actually have not met him yet though so oh shit yeah But he's UK-based, and he basically,
Starting point is 00:24:39 he seems to have produced the whole album. Yeah, wow, yeah. That's awesome. From top to bottom, yeah. That's amazing. Yeah. It sounds rad. You get some great features on there,
Starting point is 00:24:48 and you also have some food references on the album that I clock. Oh, yeah. Burger King, Honey Mustard, and Jersey mics versus Blimpies were the key ones I picked up on. Can we talk about the Jersey mics and Blimpies thing because I was trying to figure out
Starting point is 00:25:01 which side of the fence you land on there. Oh, that's so interesting. I definitely feel like you guys, the conversation, I think we've had this conversation. And that's probably where that was coming from. And definitely, I was, the line was a disrespect to Blimpys for sure. That's what I thought about. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I say, uh...
Starting point is 00:25:19 Chris Van Arson on early episode. I don't think he, did we do Blimpies with him, but he... No, we did. But he wanted to talk Togos. Togos. Oh, yeah. So wait, is that, is Togos where he got his tooth fucked up or was at Blimpys? I think it was Maddie Smith, who was our guest in the Togos episode, who got his who fucked up at togos and that's why we covered it with him how do he fuck it up he like he there was a screw in a sandwich a screw in a sandwich that's great that's like it's like a acme situation that's crazy they're hiring AI that's a problem yeah that's probably
Starting point is 00:25:51 to go that's that's fun I used to go my ex love toadogos I'm going through a few I have like a few breakup memories in my head right now oh man but but yeah you're you're a jersey Mike's fan I'm a Jersey Mike's person so then but I remember I think we Carl, we were on here, not talking about, that wasn't the food we had, but it detoured to a blimpie sandwich conversation. Yeah. And then in the album, the line I go, like,
Starting point is 00:26:17 trying to compare me to, like, talking to, like, another rapper, like, trying to compare to me to you, it's, like, Jersey mics to blimpies. Like, I'm Jersey mics, you're blimpies. Yeah. And then I'm like, you know, your bread is weak, ain't got no good combos. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:26:32 It's just metaphors. It's bars. So you got to go bars when I was to say something like that. Bars. I don't know if he should do it. Bars. Bars. The, the, uh,
Starting point is 00:26:45 there's a really good, uh, Jersey mics in White Town. Uh, I don't know. Yeah, yeah. Oh, White Town. It's a great Jersey mics. Yeah. Yeah. Like, they, I think they, yeah, have an initiative
Starting point is 00:26:55 to make sure that they're all organic and stuff. It's a beautiful. It's a beautiful place to live. It certainly. I suggest you should, anyone who's not white should move there. Yeah. Yeah, maybe they'll change the name. My, because the reason I was, I found, I thought it was maybe ambiguous is because I was, I couldn't remember where you stood with Blimpies because I was like, because also part of it is in my, in my brain, I've had Blimpies maybe twice in my life.
Starting point is 00:27:21 Right. And I was like when I was a kid, like on vacation. So like I don't really remember it. Yeah, yeah. So Mitch, do you have much Blimpies experience? No, not a, I feel like it. East Coast, right? Like, I remember it from Connecticut when I was a kid.
Starting point is 00:27:33 I was born in Connecticut. Massachusetts is New England. I mean, because we also, which you've had, DeAngelo Wags, you've had DeAngelo's and I, and I, I remember DeAngelo's. Do you, yeah, I probably, is that not, are they not related? Blimpies and the Angeles is not related.
Starting point is 00:27:48 It's two different things, right? Because I feel like one reason that their logo felt familiar to me, but maybe it's. They maybe have similar, you should look up that logo Wags of Blimpies, but there are currently no Blimpies in New England outside of one north of Hartford. Where is the,
Starting point is 00:28:03 The closest Blimpies. There's one north of Hartford in Connecticut in Windsor, Connecticut, but that's the old. Yeah, that's where my grandma lived. There you go. Yeah, but I hated it. The rest of New England has none. That's so crazy. Where's the closest one to California?
Starting point is 00:28:18 Is there one in California? It looks like there is, let's see. I think it's further down the coast on the East Coast. Okay. There's one in Bakersfield. Okay, okay, so that's in one. And then one in Redding, but that's it. Yeah, so these are more rural areas.
Starting point is 00:28:31 In New York, let's see. We've never done. Blimpies. Well, because there's none nearby. And then if we're traveling, and we're traveling, we're like, we're not going to go to, you know, another city and then review Blumpies. Yeah, let's go to Hartford. Well, there are a bunch in New Jersey.
Starting point is 00:28:46 There's a couple in Newark and Hoboken. All right. It looks like Hackensack, Clinton, Patterson. Wow. We go back to Newark. We could do it. There you go. And there's some in Long Island, but none in, like, New York proper.
Starting point is 00:28:58 Wow. Amelia, as someone who grew up in New York on the other side of the New Jersey border, Did you ever have blimpies? I have never had blimpies. Wow. That's why I was shocked looking at this map on this computer. There's a ton in New Jersey and I've never been to Blimpies. Wow, okay.
Starting point is 00:29:13 I'm surprised they still exist. I'm like, it feels like they probably would have shut down by now. But yeah, it's funny when you said, because I like, when you said Wednesday, I'm like, it's like that memory is so vivid in my head. But I didn't, it wasn't a good experience. But yeah, Jersey mics all day. So that was just a little. And I think 30 Rock makes fun of Blimpie a lot. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:32 So I think I had that in my head. I was like, okay, it seems like people aren't really fucking were blimpy. So if I make this, do this line, hopefully people will understand. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, no, for sure. I think people, I think people know it as a reference at the very least. That's a kind of a shuddy-sub-shot.
Starting point is 00:29:47 Right, right. Yeah, yeah, right. Yeah, right. Yeah, yeah. All right, cool. Just want to be sure. But bars, though. Bars.
Starting point is 00:29:56 You know, you just mentioned that you were born in Connecticut. You lived there for 10 years. We've talked about the time you spent in Atlanta. which I think you probably most closely associate with. Yeah, high school and all that. But like, do you have any food memories from Connecticut beyond Blimpies? Oh, man. You know, it's funny.
Starting point is 00:30:12 It's like, so we, like, pizza was big. I can't remember the name. It was, it was this pizza place. It was so famous. And. One of the pizza places or whatever? Yeah, like, it was like. Or Mystic Pizza?
Starting point is 00:30:26 Oh, yeah. Is it Mystic Pizza? It was very Connecticut, like New Haven. And it was like a New Haven, Connecticut. Oh, okay. There's, there are, like, three big ones there, right? Yes. There's Sally's.
Starting point is 00:30:38 So it's Frank Pepe's, Sally's, and then Modern is probably the big three. It might be that, that one. I remember the name not being too. It was being, period. And so that's a New Haven. Okay. So that's a new haven't. I think that might have been it.
Starting point is 00:30:49 Mystic pizzas in Connecticut, right? Not near. It's in the city of Mystic, isn't it? That's where it is. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was Julia Roberts's big breakout. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:59 And her first boyfriend was Liam Neeson. He has a huge hog. Oh, he has a big dick, too? That's what they say, yeah. Like I said, too. He had a big, big, too. He had a big big, too, just like me. Me and Lee and has so much of comedy.
Starting point is 00:31:14 Crazy. I got a certain set of skills. Yeah, I remember that, but I didn't know. I remember liking pizza a lot in New Haven. Yeah. But then I forgot about it. And then when I went back to New York and I was living out there, people were talking about,
Starting point is 00:31:30 they obviously people love pizza in New Haven. York, but they were talking about how good the pizza is in New Haven. So I kind of remind, I was like, oh, maybe it was really good. I would love to go back and see and go check it out. But that's what I remember mostly is that way. It would be tough if you were the follow-up boyfriend after, I would be thinking of that Avion bottle quite a bit. I feel like if you were- This is from Janice Dickinson's memoir, the supermodel is that when she hooked up with Liam Neeson, when he took, she said, an avion bottle fell out of his pants. Wow. Yeah. That's what she said? That's what she said, yeah. Damn.
Starting point is 00:32:01 Happen everything. Mitch, where did you stand on those? Because you went to New Haven, right? Yeah. I mean, I... Where do you stand on them, man? I like Sally's. What's your one, two, three?
Starting point is 00:32:14 There's now, there's now, Salies is like, has basically franchised and they, there's, there's, like, a lot of, uh, Sally's. But when I was down there, Sally's was, because everyone hyped up Frank Pepe's for, like, I feel like, that was the most famous one for a long time. and they have like that, the clam pie, which I feel like that was the number one. I'm like, the best pizzas in America, it was like the number one on the list forever. Right.
Starting point is 00:32:37 And then Sally's is so, it was so damn good when we went there. And I was like, this, like, to me was when I think Regina is at its best. It was like, it rivals, like, really good Regina. And you know, I love Regina and I'm, uh, you know, I'm a hometown guy. Of course, I'm going to root for for Regina is in Boston.
Starting point is 00:32:53 It's great. It's very good. And you've had it's good. And, hey, you've got to go to the original. John Hodgman said it was the best cheese pizza he's ever had, I believe. Really? I said that first, and then he said it after. Oh, we fucking copied your ass.
Starting point is 00:33:06 What do you want to say? I was going to say, to just go back to this, should we, I think, do we, can we go back to old episode? What are you saying? I'm talking about Whole Factor again. Okay. Is it a thing that we should, is it a thing we should do this year when, like, everyone's, we had the rumblies.
Starting point is 00:33:27 So you started off with like we should make the podcast less scatological. The booty hole. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But now you're saying we should add this as a component. But I'm just saying like the neck, I'm saying that does bring it down for me. Does it not bring it down for you? Here's the issue is that we very often, for logistical reasons, eat right before we record. And that can sometimes get me some rumblies, but maybe I'm not actually feeling the after effects until later.
Starting point is 00:33:50 Like the KFC that we consumed fairly recently, we had last week with our buddy Colin Crawford. that hit me when I got home, which was hours after the podcast. We'd record another episode after that. So I, it's kind of tough. I guess if we want to give an update, we can do that.
Starting point is 00:34:05 Yeah, like check in. Yeah. Like, let me ask you that if you ate something and you loved it, it was such a good experience, but later,
Starting point is 00:34:11 a couple hours later, it was a rough experience. Does that affect the way you feel about that place? For me, yes. Yeah. For you, I mean,
Starting point is 00:34:19 like, like, I like, I won't get it ever again, but like, and I do still like Holland Reyes. Right. But I was like, I got the hotter level and it like destroyed two days of my life.
Starting point is 00:34:30 Yes. And now you associate the restaurant with that pain, basically. Yes. And I love it. I mean, like, I never made that mistake again. But I do think it is, I think that's a bit of a factor. I think there's a difference between like, oh, I really, I had a big meal and I really enjoyed it.
Starting point is 00:34:45 I had a nice time. And then later I had to take a big shit. Like, there's a little bit different from that versus like, oh, I felt like I had food poisoning. You know what I mean? Like, I had to change. last week at work and it really affected
Starting point is 00:35:00 like I had like three days of just like diarrhea it was fucking horrible and so that was the kind of thing it was like now I have a very strong negative association with that way interesting because I would that makes me want to go back because I'm like how do I get that again? No but like because I was like
Starting point is 00:35:15 there's this tie spot that's over by homestay I think it's called Holy Basil or something like that. Oh yeah I know that. And I was like blown away. I mean it was delicious yo and I was like, I don't know what the fuck happened, but the rest of the night was a nightmare, like, just bad. But I want to go back because I want to eat. I want, maybe it was just a bad batch, you know? Yeah, right. But like a barrio,
Starting point is 00:35:38 my homie who told me this Brex Barrito at Los Felas Cafe. He was like, this best best Brex Barreto in the city. And I tried it and it was really good. But that made my stomach hurt. Then I tried it again. And it was like, there's something about this burrito that makes my stomach hurt.
Starting point is 00:35:53 So I had to stop. But if it's like, you're saying, food poison, I feel like, oh, it's just probably a mishap. Like maybe someone like fucked with it or something.
Starting point is 00:36:01 That's a logical approach. That's like, This is likely a one-time thing. But it does give me a little bit of a negative aversion. That's true. Did you say which restaurant it was? You don't have to, I guess. I actually don't remember which lunch spot it was,
Starting point is 00:36:16 but it was one of the lunch spots we had last week. Yeah. Some stuff will get, like, this stuff we just ate, you know, when we talk about it. That, like, it's not the restaurant. It would be like, like, it's just I shouldn't be eating shit. Yeah, it's just like I shouldn't be eating bean dip, you know? But it tastes good and I enjoyed it.
Starting point is 00:36:32 Yeah. Yeah. What do you, like, what? Because I know you're off dairy. We talked about this before. Is that what, is that like the worst, like the most, the clearest causality for you? You just, you just omit it from your diet. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:44 Like, like, what comes second? What's more likely that? I've been doing a diary. Hopefully I was seeing if I could find it for the show. Because I've been writing it down whenever I feel bad. Yeah. My doctor was like, every time you feel something, just write it down. And then.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Are you doing like a food elimination thing? Yeah, yeah. I'm trying to figure out what it is. Because at first I thought it was, I mean, it's definitely, dairy is just like not happening. Also, I think, I think dairy is like, I don't know, maybe, like, I was telling you, I've been getting radicalized on TikTok, but I think there's like some kind of, like, I think dairy's like trying to destroy black men with dairy. There's like some kind of conspiracy going out. Like, I think the original black man is supposed to drink goat milk, right?
Starting point is 00:37:25 I told you I getting ragged at all. So, like, I came on this podcast to tell y'all that the black man should not be eating dairy from the cow, but from the goat. So, right? I go to this restaurant because my favorite cake is cheesecake. Like I love cheesecake. It's my favorite cake forever all my whole life. But I can't eat this shit, right?
Starting point is 00:37:43 I go to this restaurant. They have a goat-based cheesecake. Wow. I've never felt better after eating it. Wow. Wow. So the black man is not supposed to eat the European diet. It's the problem. That's what's the problem.
Starting point is 00:37:57 You've got to move out of White Town. This is what happens. We live in White Town. Not too long. You get radicalized. You get more black than I was before. I'm like, now, I'm like, even more pro-black. But, but yeah, no, um, so I think dairy, no dairy for sure. I think, but I think that's separate from my general stomach issues. I think that's just lactose tolerance. And then, uh, right now it seems to be, uh, I'm on the verge of maybe trying a gluten-free diet. I don't, I don't want to. Yeah. I find myself like resisting it, but I could tell,
Starting point is 00:38:29 Like every time I meet someone who is gluten-free and we talk, it feels like the way they described their life before, it feels like that's what I'm going through. Yeah. But I'm also like, I don't want to do that. I don't want to be that person. Man, I would hate to get rid of gluten's. I love the gluten's. I love all that shit. I love them.
Starting point is 00:38:45 Yeah, man. And it's not that right now it's not bad enough to like, it's not hurting my life quality. But it probably could. I've been told to do elimination diet. And I have. Yeah. I'll eliminate any food you put in front of it. Oh, thank you.
Starting point is 00:38:58 I, uh, what, you don't like that? That was clever. It just took me a second. I'll eliminate anything. You put it in front of me right now. I'll eliminate that shit. Do you mean eliminate doughboys? Oh, well, we will eliminate doughboys someday.
Starting point is 00:39:14 At some point, we're going to take the dog boys out back. Better time. Yeah. Thank you. That's very kind of you to say. I'm on a, I'm on a, I'm very openly on the weight loss shot. Oh, nice. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:25 Does that affect your, uh, design to drink, alcohols? hall too or is that not connected? No, it does a little. Like, you will get, like, I did the sloppy boy show and I, and I said this just recently, but I, but I, but I, I, I did the lineup and I did a second lineup, and I never, I'm not a barfer. Yeah. I never, I never, like, it takes a lot for me to throw up.
Starting point is 00:39:42 And I've talked about throwing up in the last year because I, it's, I can't, now I can't eat as much. And so like, I, I, I am, I'm, much like Irma. Or I am, I, I, I, I, I, I'm a, she throws up all. And I was so nervous. And they were like. Like, I did a bunch of different things where they, they, I think they'd like look, they, they put a camera in her at some point. They scanned her.
Starting point is 00:40:04 And this is like when she was like two years old. Right. She was barfing. She's about to turn 10. Yeah. But she, you had a bunch of footage from the litter box cam. You could show them. So.
Starting point is 00:40:15 They said they want to. I'm taking on that litter box can. They want to spit. They want to spit. Cut to the litter box kit. I don't set up, you know that I only put a camera in my bathroom. Not in the cat's bathroom. Only in the, only for humans.
Starting point is 00:40:32 This would be bad, but like, if you, because it is like the one thing we don't know how other people do. Like, like, we, that never mind is bad. I was like, oh, it would be cool to kind of hide a camera in there and just see how other people use the bad. Not to. But not like a Chuck Berry way where you're going to, like, jack off to it. More just like, I'm curious, like an anthropological sort of way. Like, how are y'all doing it? Like, we all do it differently.
Starting point is 00:40:56 And I mean, if someone knows. Because I'm a stand-up. Yeah. I'm a stand-up to wipe guy, which I think a lot of people make fun of. See? So you be getting out like this? You're like that?
Starting point is 00:41:10 Oh, man. That's like when you, when I was four, yeah, you do it. Just like your album, I, right there, I got, Oh, you did, my bad, my bad. I was putting myself out there. You're right, you're right. I did have, I put,
Starting point is 00:41:24 that's the kind of thing I was doing on the album, too. I put myself out there. You mock my, wiping. Look, I know it's strange. It's not strange, but I didn't know that, though. It's like a I agree that to me, I have an association with childhood. I did do it for too late in childhood. But like it was like, it was like, too late. Yeah. I don't like put my hand into the toilet and wiping around. I don't like that. As long as you wipe it, I think it's fine, right? Yeah. But I do I'm a bidet guy now anyway. So when I stand up to wipe, things are already kind of taken care of. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:52 Yeah. Do you turn around and face the bowl? I do. Okay. I think maybe it's, you know, you know, you know, Do you like turn around and bend over or do you... Bend over too much. I'm going to look at a camera for like anthropological reasons. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. That's not a pervert thing. I just want to know.
Starting point is 00:42:10 Like I said, like I'm curious. The three of us here, without knowing anything, you have no idea how we do that. Yeah, right. I don't like to put my hand into the tour. I like don't like, I feel like my hand is like too close to everything going on down there.
Starting point is 00:42:22 So I like to stand up. I actually understand it. I might start doing it. It's not. And look, in when I'm in, And when I'm in a stall, if I'm just in a stall, I like to stand up and turn around because I don't like people like seeing me on the toilet. Like anytime I'm in a stall, I feel like people are looking through that crack.
Starting point is 00:42:37 Yeah, sure. So I like to like stand up and turn around. I'm like, all right, if you look in here, you're going to get a big fucking eye full of me wiping my ass. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, sure. That's why I do it. Wait, how old were you when you stop? 16.
Starting point is 00:42:52 Oh, that old. Oh, that's my man. Well, there we go. Someone makes fun of you for it? Yeah. Yeah. I was too late. I mentioned it to a friend.
Starting point is 00:42:59 I was just telling the story about taking a shit and said, so I stood up to wipe and they're like, wait, hold on what? And that became the headline. Right. Hey, Wiker stands up to white. So I think you were shamed into, you were ashamed. You changed you. I was ashamed into it.
Starting point is 00:43:09 I was ashamed of it. Like, why are we not doing it that way? I don't think it's a bad way. I think some people think that like you're going to get like a little piece of toilet paper. I feel like the way I have been, well, now it's a TMI, but like, I feel like the shit is not working. I feel like I need to do something different.
Starting point is 00:43:25 I got to get you on, do you have a bidet? No, I would recommend a bidet. The day is life change. I need that because, yeah, because my, you know, yeah, whatever. But it's, it's like, I feel like I need to do a whole process. I need to, like, figure a whole shit out. So, yeah, let's get down. Let's do it.
Starting point is 00:43:43 Let's put cameras in each other's bathroom. And then we'll have, like, walkie-talkies, and we'll just communicate. We'll put one in Irma's Litterbox as well. So she was throwing up a bunch and she was going to get, the doctor offered, they did a million tests. I spent a ton of money and they were like, there's one last thing we can do. We can like spit roaster and put one up or butt and one up or down her mouth. And I was like, I don't want the poor cat to be spit roasted. I don't like that's too much. Would you be sedated? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:07 Well, I call it that spit roast? Yeah, but I do. I'm not saying. Is that a technical? You should be typing that into Google. I don't want her to get. But what are they doing though? My poor little baby getting two things shoved. I don't know. It was too much for me. Got you. Gotcha. Gotcha. Yeah. She's a sweet little girl. She doesn't need to be spit roasted like that. So I said no.
Starting point is 00:44:27 And it was like... Maybe she's on the college experience. Jesus. Man, it's so funny the conversation we had before this pod start, where we are. We're like, we're going to get real deep today. So what happened? Did you ain't do it? No, she just barfs.
Starting point is 00:44:48 She's just a barf her. She's a cat that barfs. They thought, like, they thought they were trying to get meat to give her elimination diet, which I did. I like cut out chicken and grains. But the issue is, it's like, cats are picky. She doesn't want, like, I would get her to no grain food. She wouldn't touch it.
Starting point is 00:45:01 You know what I mean? Like, they're very, you know, they're very picky about what they. They love temptations. They just love to eat the temptation snacks. They love the temptation snacks. And then I give them a bunch of wet food. I'm looking at you because you got a cat. So I like, so I try to give her a bunch of stuff.
Starting point is 00:45:14 Does they have like the temptations on the brant like on it? The wet food or, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It is. Like this. It's weird. The temptation's only, that's kind of the only thing that they still, I guess, promote. I guess you say. But, you know, I was going to say, so when you're doing this medicine, though, Mitch, like, are you like, it's interesting to me because I think what's hard about changing your diet is the mental part of it.
Starting point is 00:45:43 So what it's happening is essentially you're just not as hungry. Your appetite is not there as much. Your appetite is not as there as much. It shuts off some of the noise. It's funny because I was, I won't help the person, but there was. a guy back home who I love very much who was like, I take it and he's like, I take it and I eat, I bet you could even just guess who this is. He's like, I take it and I eat Ben and Jerry's every single night.
Starting point is 00:46:04 I'm like, well, you're not supposed to. That's not like what you're supposed to do. Like he's trying to test it? But also, I mean, I guess so. But also I'm like, well, I mean, I think there's a, there's a lot of people I know who take it who are like, I'm trying to beat it. They are like, everyone. There's a lot of people that try to beat it. And I don't, I like, there's times where I want to eat and I eat kind of shitty for sure.
Starting point is 00:46:22 But I, but on like most days, I'm trying to. trying to be like have a good flow. We gotta go to fucking Chicago though. It sucks. We're in trouble. Yeah, this episode will come out after we were in Chicago and hopefully had some great shows with a great crowd. But, uh,
Starting point is 00:46:35 yeah. Trying to will that into existence. But we, we're not going till next week as of this record. Oh man, it's gonna be interesting who wins the, if they went this weekend. Can you imagine?
Starting point is 00:46:45 Yeah, you'll be in a, you'll be like at a good day at a good time. Yeah. I don't know. They might win. It's cold out there. And we would,
Starting point is 00:46:51 and you know, it would be funny. It will be the night of our show on, I think it will be Saturday night, the night of one of our shows. Wait, really? I believe so. The NFC championship game. No, you know what?
Starting point is 00:47:02 I think the NFC and the NFC and the AFC championship game, I think are on the same day. So we might get lucky that it will be the Sunday, the day that we're leaving. But then we're going to leave before the game? Yeah. You could stay an extra day if you wanted. Probably like, well, like,
Starting point is 00:47:15 it'd be probably a huge pain in the ass to get into a sports bar and certainly getting into the stadium would be nuts. I just don't want to miss. If the Patriots make it pass. I don't want to, if the Patriots. I don't want to miss it. It is cool to watch the sport in the city of the team. Like I was at a Mets in the Queens.
Starting point is 00:47:31 I was watching the Mets game. And it was like fucking crazy in there. I'm not a Mets fan, but it was just like fun to be around. Yeah, it's great. Unless you like really hate the team. Right, right. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:42 But. That's a fun experience. And also sitting at the Vegas sports book, even if you don't have like skin in the game. It's just like being around everyone's reactions. Yeah. Sports is great. Sports are great.
Starting point is 00:47:54 Yeah, I know way too much about sports now because of the show I'm working out, but I have to watch it all the time. Were you a big sports guy before that? Speaking of which, we got to give a shout out that there was a show you worked on. Uh-huh. And you wrote up a part into a scene about the doughboys. Oh, yeah, yeah. Extended dough boys reference. And it got into the show.
Starting point is 00:48:16 It's in there, right? It's in the show. Did you all see it? Yeah, I saw the club. Oh, my God. It's crazy. It's Tracy Morgan and, yeah. And Jermaine Fowler and the show is called Crutch, right?
Starting point is 00:48:29 And then I'm like, why am I? I haven't worked on it. Yeah, it's called Crutch, right? Did it get canceled? Did you get canceled? Yeah, yeah. But whatever, like, but yeah, the, the, it was funny because they were, I was like, you know, I pitched the Doe Boys as like the podcast, but then I was like, oh, wait, is that like
Starting point is 00:48:51 a legal thing? So then people started pitching like, oh, let's just pitch on like different like names for the podcast. And then they rehearsed it. And then it was like, I think it was like snack boys. It was something like not as fun. It was like snack boys and stuff. And I'm like, man, this shit is whack. Why can't they just say?
Starting point is 00:49:09 I'm going to text Mitch right now or see if we could just, if y'all cool with it. And look, I never did ask you. I never asked him. I was cool. He was like, yeah, man, put that shit in. As president of doughboys media, you made the decision-wise. I think you made the right call,
Starting point is 00:49:26 and that was very, very nice of you to do. Oh, no, it was very, it was, like, so perfect because the episode was about, like, generational stuff. And, like, Tracy's, like, he, the joke I wanted to get in, he's just like, oh, these guys get paid to talk about eating food, like, because he's, like, an old school guy, like any kids that don't do anything.
Starting point is 00:49:47 And then the young kids are all talking about it. And, you know, they, uh, they, I kind of messed. Did you see the whole thing? Yeah. I kind of like, I felt like I tweaked a little bit of the premise because they were talking about snacks more than like chains. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:01 But, you know, I just, you know, sometimes it just gets lost. So it's not super accurate. But you guys talk about chains. So I felt bad about that. We just about snacks, too. Yeah, yeah. It's one of those things. We are happy to be there.
Starting point is 00:50:12 Yeah, exactly. We were very happy to hear Tracy just say y'all show. Yeah. He's like, yo, I watch that dough boys, man. It's pretty good. He literally says that. You got a little prop. that out and like put it on the thing.
Starting point is 00:50:23 I mean, but Tracy is also, he's amazing and that was a fun, fun, right. Sussar war to them. I'm sure he was afraid to ever mention that he talked about doughboys. Even though I'm not sure if Tracy's like, what the fuck are you talking about? I'm sure. Yeah, I'm sure. Sometimes I'm like, if I ran into it right now, he's like, who the hell are you? I'm like, we worked together.
Starting point is 00:50:42 Remember the doughboys thing? There was a whole thing. I had to call my boy. He was like, call you boy, call Mitch. See if he's cool with it. He put it in. And I was like, well, you got to ask his friend Nick. And he's like, well, whoever, just get it in it.
Starting point is 00:50:55 You know, I was like, all right, Tracy. Texted him now. Texted him. And I'm falling apart. Now, it was great. It felt like, it really felt like, you know, when you work on writers rooms or shit, you never know, like, everybody writes everything. Right.
Starting point is 00:51:08 But that was like, when you see it, you're like, that is because I was there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, there's nobody else who was dealing with, who was listening to Doe Boys that worked on that show. It's fun when you have a small people. of something and it's just like, oh, I can kind of, I feel like I have ownership over this. Yeah. You know, it's obvious it's all collaborative.
Starting point is 00:51:26 Everyone is, you know, is contributing. But yeah, I totally get that. We might have to cut this, but Susser hung with Tracy and went to his house and he showed him like a Batmobile that he owned. Yeah. Well, I went to his house. I see that. Yeah, he owns like Batmobile.
Starting point is 00:51:42 He got a Shark tank. He does have a shark tank. Yeah. Oh, right. He has a shark tank. Yeah. That would be funny if I had my house, I just had like the Shark Tank host. Like, it was a little.
Starting point is 00:51:50 I got D. Shark to me. You just go in there and pitch something. Mr. Wonderful is there. Did you see Marty Supreme? I did. What do you think of it? You like it? I loved it. I loved it. I thought it was cool.
Starting point is 00:52:02 But that dog was scary as hell. Very scary. He was barking his ass out. This is an old man opinion of mine, but I won't go into spoilers here. Did the Dias see Marty Supreme? No. I have not yet. Really?
Starting point is 00:52:14 Amelia, you picked it in movie, which was very a savvy pick to pick it in the box office fantasy. Yeah, I knew that the, I knew that the promotion. aspect of it was going to be crazy. That was a good call. I bet on the wrong safty. I took Smashing Machine instead. Oh, you did? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:28 Damn. Smash machine. Yeah, the, they promoted that. I feel like that Timmy promoted that shit. He really did. Yeah. He did a rap song. Speaking of a rap, he was rapping on a record.
Starting point is 00:52:39 But as himself, like, talking about it, but dropping the movie and shit, it's like, oh, that's a cool way to promote an album. But, yeah, Smash scene was cool, too. Did you like that? I got to watch it still. I was like, I don't know, it kind of didn't really affect me. It is wild to see these brothers go through that. Like, there must be weird for them to be like, have two movies come out at the same time.
Starting point is 00:52:59 And it'd be like, one is clearly getting more praise than the other one. And they're so similar, they're both like period sports movies. Yeah. It's like, that's fucking wild. As an older, this is very dorky. And it doesn't, it doesn't, but it always worries me to see an animal in danger in a movie. And I know that it's, the animal is fine. But it always does, it always scares me a little.
Starting point is 00:53:19 That's happened more as I gotten older. I don't know what the... No, I'm like that too. When it ran out of the thing, I was like, I was like, yeah, like, they gotta go get back. That's, that was like my thing. I was really uncomfortable. At the end of the movie, they should sew the dog waving goodbye to us.
Starting point is 00:53:33 That's like what I want. Like, yeah, when they did a little like, this is what happened to this person. The dog was fine and he got a new owner and got treated well. I truly would love that in every... And look, I know in some movies, like an animal dies and that's a part of the story or something. But like, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:53:49 That's a weird, weird thing with me where I don't like to see our furry friends be a, people. Yeah. No, no doubt, no doubt. Emma, would you let, like, like, for, like, fictionally? But, like, if there was a movie and we're like, we want Jemmy to be in it and Jemmy's character gets killed. And we're going to have on-screen depiction of that. Oh, wow. Like, would you, like, like, like.
Starting point is 00:54:13 What if they were like, we're going to cast Jemmy as Dylan Klebold in the Columbine. Yes, yeah. And she's going to offer herself. Like they had a dog that was there with them? I don't know. We're going to do this. I don't know. Doing clebonne.
Starting point is 00:54:28 That's good. Yeah, that is good. I think it's not that different than like an actor agreeing to be a part that dies. Sure, right? But then I'm like, is it like manifesting death toward my dog? And then like, is that bad? I don't know. Is it like carmically bad?
Starting point is 00:54:41 I don't know. I feel like you wouldn't do it with Wally and Irma. If they died in the film? They're like, hey, Mitch, we want you to be a character that's like you and you have two cats. We're thinking you bring in Wally and Irma, but the thing is, the character Wally's playing,
Starting point is 00:54:54 it dies in the movie. Yeah. I feel like you would not want to do that. Well, like, is it a heroic? Like, what type of death is this?
Starting point is 00:55:00 Uh, suicide by cop. Oh my God. Yo. That would be, but he's like, really, like,
Starting point is 00:55:08 go out. Yeah, the, that would be like, uh, I think it would, with the animal wouldn't know what's happening. Like,
Starting point is 00:55:14 how would it know, like, the animal would, I mean, the animal's happy. I'm sure it has that. But I'm saying they would be it would be traumatized for the animal to like even simulate that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:24 Yeah. Yeah. Irma is way more of a stage cat than Wally is. Irma could. And Irma could actually, I think, be in movies. You think Irma could act it. Yeah, I've been taking her to auditions to see if anything happens. Wow.
Starting point is 00:55:34 I got a pitch for you and your dog. Okay. So this is going to be, because I really think I miss those like kind of movie, Disney movies, like real life. So you, let's say you got your dog. Let's just say for the sake of argument, it's a service. it helps you with anxiety and stuff. So you got anxiety and you go on a plane and you got the dog on the plane and then the plane goes down in like the jungle or something and then y'all like get separated.
Starting point is 00:56:02 So you're like on the other side and then the dog's over there and you got to give back to the- Yeah, but you're like you can't you, the one person who would help you get through it is your dog, right? And you have to kind of overcome your thing. But then the dog, maybe the dog dies at the end or something. That would be so sad. But, you know, Jimmy's a star. So I guess I'd let her paw print her contract if she wanted. Yeah, yeah, put the little paw print right there.
Starting point is 00:56:25 You've started it right here. You got to let them grow up to, you know, you've got to let the, Irma's been like, she's gone on a few dates lately. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Where she's going to get spit roasted. Jesus. She's gone out with like a few. Like, I'm not going to say like, like, she's been out with like some names.
Starting point is 00:56:44 You would know some of the names. And so as long as she comes back early enough, I'm like, Heathcliff. She's got out with Heathcliff. He's got a reputation. She went out, she went on a date with Heathcliff. Yeah, just like, just be careful. She went out with Heathcliff, um, uh, Jacob Allorty.
Starting point is 00:57:00 It's kind of a weird mix. Yeah, he's really well with us. She came back a little late with the Lordy and I was kind of pissed up. I was a little upset with her. Yeah, did she smash? I don't want to even think about that with my baby girl. I don't want to think. Jacob All right.
Starting point is 00:57:17 shows up in a red carpet with a cat. He's like, so who is this with you? Erma on our high legs and Jacob Blurie's holding her hand. He's a bit of a barfer, but I like that. Have you ever meet Walling-Rom? You got to meet Walling-N-Rom. I don't know if you ever met him. Are you lurid-cats?
Starting point is 00:57:32 No, but I was going to ask you, like, does it offend you and people don't like cats, so you don't care? I mean, Wallian-R-Rom has such nice cats. And if you're allergic-cats, I'm like, I get it or whatever. When someone's like, I don't like cats, I'm like, you just talk to him for a little. I mean, that's, I think that's such a good, are you going to talk to him for a little bit? I think it's such an extreme statement to be like, like, I don't like, like, if I was like, I don't like dogs. And I do like cat, I prefer cats to dogs, but like, look at this sweetheart here.
Starting point is 00:57:59 I'm not sure, yeah. I love this. I love dogs. I love Jamie. No, I'm glad I've come around on dogs because I, as I mentioned, I got a traumatic dog bite as a kid. And so, like, I was scared of dogs for a long time. For many years, he, like, for, for, like, when I first met Wiger, he was, he was, he would like, to get payback he was out on the street
Starting point is 00:58:19 biting dogs he was like Wagger bites back sort of thing and uh Newspaper men were always following me around he strikes again down and white down
Starting point is 00:58:30 I had this dream that motherfucker like I was at Diddy's house and it was uh any dog bit me wow it was so fucking weird that's like the best thing
Starting point is 00:58:42 that could happen to you yeah I was like that seems odd yet I was like Why is this in the news? I dream of being in Ditty's house someday. I feel like I could get into his party now easier than before.
Starting point is 00:58:54 I'm sure the criteria is a little bit less. He's dropped his neighbors that I can now get in there. You'll get your shot. It'll be out soon probably. What is your beef with cats? I guess I'm scared of them if I'm being honest. Oh, really? But I did my best friend who I moved out here with, with my roommate for a long time.
Starting point is 00:59:14 He had a cat. and then he left like he went back to Atlanta for like a few months and left a cat so I kind of had to raise it so that cat I'm not afraid of
Starting point is 00:59:25 like I have a connection with that cat I love a piece shout out to Florence she passed away recently oh no but she lived a nice long life yeah good like pretty long yeah
Starting point is 00:59:33 like from like little kitten but in the beginning I was like when he left there it it would just be like I could never know where it was it was just I was just like where is it and then like
Starting point is 00:59:43 but that cat I feel connected too, but when I go to people's houses and they have cats, I get uncomfortable. When they move, I don't like the way they move. It's just creepy to me. Irma, you would love because she's very vocal and would come up to you and say hello. Like she'd come up and like meow. Like she would do that. She would just come up and like meow at you.
Starting point is 01:00:00 She's kind of dog-like. She's very dog-like. She'll never, ever, ever, ever by you. Like, I hate when the cats like, like, if I'm sitting here talking, then all of a sudden the cats just right there. And I'm like, she might do that occasionally. Wally is maybe a little bit more sneaky with that. Wally is, uh, Wally is.
Starting point is 01:00:14 I'm sure I'll like your cats Wally would maybe swipe at you more Like if you're playing with them? I feel like I met them or probably at your house You must have met them at some point Like I don't hey I'm not like Visorally afraid of them It's just more like I like dogs more
Starting point is 01:00:27 But I'm not I don't get excited by cats Can um jemmy and Wally Nerma be on your next album I don't know It depends on what it's about I like that you couldn't even just say Yeah sure for just a bit of it You gotta be like no I don't know Jimmy yes
Starting point is 01:00:44 So everyone has. Yeah, girl. It's hard to get a bar. She was going a little barky today. She was being barky today at someone she's never met. And I was like, girl, what? Oh, yeah. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 01:00:56 That's interesting. Was that fear? What was that? I think she's just, like, excited to be back at the office. And my friend Liz was in town and she left today. So Gemmy's, and then I worked another job this morning and I was gone all morning. So she was very, like, bumming and sad today. So then when I got home, she was very talkative.
Starting point is 01:01:11 So I think she's just, she's in her vocal. vocal mood today. I like it. Oh, that's dope. Yeah, maybe I'll talk to you later. Well, it's funny you say that because I've been in his crazy DMX like phase right now. And this guy loves dogs. Like, the whole album is just dogs parking.
Starting point is 01:01:29 Right. I'm like, did he just have him in his studio? Like, what was going up? But it's just, it's very funny. He's like, roo, roo, rub. He's like, the dog is barking. Is it DMX parking or is it the dog parking? Or both, yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:41 Like, he'll bark, there's dogs barking. It's like, it's just a lot of dogs. activity but like like it makes you realize like if you're if you like if you like dogs you should let check out his music like this guy loves dogs like I never thought about it yeah if you're a dog you should check out bone thugs and Harvey they said they mentioned bones quite a bit they sure do they sing bone over and over again so I feel like a dog will have a big smile here I don't mean look it's boom boom boom yeah it's it's kind of on the nose but that's fitting for a dog I mean
Starting point is 01:02:13 Snoop Dog or Nate Dog. Both have dogs in their fame. So there you go. In fact, the whole dog pound. The cat's, we got the temptations with the cats. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, there's not a lot of cat music rappers. No, no, no. Yeah, not at all, really, right? Too sure I had that album chasing the cat, but I think that was about something else.
Starting point is 01:02:31 Yeah, I think that certainly was about something different. But I love to check them out. You know, I don't really like, like, it's not excited to, but but I was thinking about that because I sometimes I'll go out on a date and the person will have a cat and I and I it feels like I feel guilty because I don't like it you know
Starting point is 01:02:50 like I don't want to hate their pet I'm sure they love their pet you know I got I gotta I get to give you a Wallynirma immersive experience I think that you would I think you I think you I think you would really I think you would You know it's funny because this is how people talk to about scary movies too like I'll go hey
Starting point is 01:03:08 you know you have you seen weapons yet and I'm like no I don't like scary movies. Oh, but you just got to see it. You know, I'm like, well, yeah, because you like that shit. Like, I'm just going to be afraid the whole time. Right, right. But I don't know.
Starting point is 01:03:21 I might do it for you because you know, I appreciate you. I appreciate both of you. Maybe I'll do a Super Bowl party or something. You can come over and say hi to the cast. Man, man, say less. I'll be there. My mom was asking, because my mom doesn't love scary movies, but she was asking if she could handle sinners.
Starting point is 01:03:38 And I wasn't sure how to, because I was like, I don't think it's that scary. I also don't like scary, like horror movies. I think Sinners is more of like, because I like sinners. I think it's more of like a thriller than a horror movie. Yeah, I'm more into the like psychological thriller actioning. I like the first half of sinners more than the horror half of sinners. I like, I don't get a crazy.
Starting point is 01:03:58 Yeah, I didn't need all that. Because I did like it, but the only, once they started getting weird with like the end with the, I was like, I did like this a couple times. There was a few moments where I had like a pillow up to my face, but it wasn't, I think, I think it's. It's okay. I don't think it's like horror. I don't think it's, I don't know. I think on the scary movie scale, I don't think it's that. Oh, I think she'll get that. I think that's a movie that I was like, everyone should see this. Yeah. But that one is vampire. Because also I feel like I have a raking of like whether it's vampires, ghosts and zombies.
Starting point is 01:04:32 Like zombies are like, I'm like, I can't, I can't do that. Well, you also got body horror there too is the other. It's like, you know, because like they're, Anytime you deal with zombies. Yeah, the hogs are so much bigger than they should ever be. A lot of... That's a bit of... That's body horror in a way. Look at the guy's four inch hanger.
Starting point is 01:04:53 I'm going to name my dick the substance. But, yeah, like... Because I don't like that. The other part in certain is I don't like when they bite their neck. And then... Like, I like the sexy vampires where they do it and it's just like two holes. But they would do it and they rip the whole fucking neck off. And I'm like, I don't like...
Starting point is 01:05:08 Now I was just looking at a person with half a neck. I don't like that kind of shit. that's gross. It's more about grossness, I think, than scaryness. There's a goreversion. Yeah, yeah. Slashers, probably not for you. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:20 I kill counts. Like, I want to watch the pit, too, but I hear that's, like, pretty gory. I've heard this, too. Gross, but I want to watch it, though. I like, I respect it. I want to, like, be a part of this. I watch some of my mom's Australia. I enjoyed the pit.
Starting point is 01:05:32 What did you think? I had fun with it. I, like, I feel like I need to go and watch, like, have a good sit down. It's before we went to Hawaii. We were watching the pit. Oh, yeah. I feel like I was, like, kind of, half taking it in.
Starting point is 01:05:42 And I was enjoying, it did feel like a, like a new modern day ER kind of level sort of show. You know what I mean? Right. But it didn't gross you out. It was pretty.
Starting point is 01:05:51 There's like a couple like, yeah, there's like a couple like, blood shooting on the wall or whatever. I don't mind blood, yeah. Yeah, yeah. There's a little bit of stuff here and there, I feel like.
Starting point is 01:05:59 We, um, I've been working on the Warner Brothers lot. They shoot the pit there. Yeah. Saw Noel Wiley yesterday. Really? Wow. How about that?
Starting point is 01:06:08 He was in costume. Isn't that cool? In his, like, doctor outfit? Yeah. That's tight. I wonder if he just wears that all the time. He's going home. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:18 He's just got a long day today. A couple operations was crazy. But yeah, that show is probably good. You know how when the show gets really hyped up and you can tell it's not fake? But you're like, this is probably a good show. No, people with good taste like this show. I'm sure it's a good show. I just haven't gotten a chance to watch it yet because I know it's a little bit of an endurance test.
Starting point is 01:06:37 But I hear it's very fun and watchable. But yeah, that was one of those things where it's like you have those moments and then somewhere I was where it was just like, you know, it's like you get jaded about this industry. Right. Like, like, first off, any job sucks ultimately. Right. You want to be doing something else, but you have to do it for money. But also this industry has gotten worse and worse than the time we've all been in it. And, you know, work has been, has gotten more sporadic and the compensation has gone down.
Starting point is 01:07:04 Right. There are fewer productions in L.A., but there is a moment like that where you like, hey, I'm working in a place and I just walk. by a very famous person. Right, right. That's kind of cool. And you remind yourself that it is like a, you're very blessed to be able to do this. Oh, that's, yeah, like, it was funny you said that because I used to work at Warner Brothers, like, and then tour guide or like, oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:24 We had to, uh, we built this whole, like, section we could ride on a Harry Potter, Harry Potter broom and it's like a 3D thing. But it's part of the tour. And when I worked there, it, that was probably like 2014, maybe, or 20, yeah, 2014. And there was so much. ship being shot on the lot. So it was like, da-da-da-da-da. And I went there the other day, and it was just like, I think it's like, it's like, it's like a ghost town. And you see, and I saw the tour guys that I went to say hi. Yeah. And it's like, there's like nothing that
Starting point is 01:07:53 show. Like, you know, I mean, you'll see stuff, but it's like, you're not going to see active. No, it's like, I'm not a lot of shooting going on. One hundred percent, a lot less populated than it used to be. Um, did you try to get, like, did you pretend to faint or something in front of Noah Wiley when he was dressed up like the doctor? Yeah. I, I said, I said, uh-oh, I need mouth to mouth. What do you think he'd do if you did that? What the fuck are you doing? And then he'd get fired for my job.
Starting point is 01:08:22 And then it would be a story of like, yeah, Weiger went up to Noah Wiley and said he needed mouth to mouth. What did you say? I would love it. I got forgot how to say I need CPR. You're just like, wait, I need the thing. What is it called? I need mouth to mouth.
Starting point is 01:08:38 I need mouth to mouth. You actually needed it. He's like, no, I know. Well, yeah, that would be a, that would be a harrowing situation. Because they'd think you were just trying to steal a kiss, but it's like, no, I actually am having trouble respirating. Right. Also, I was at this restaurant the other day. This Thai, not Thai, it was a Vietnamese spot.
Starting point is 01:08:56 And this old guy sitting next to me starts fucking choking right there. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. That's scary. I didn't know what to do. I was like, I just started to do it, like, hitting him on the back and shit. And he was just like, ah. And then this guy walked by.
Starting point is 01:09:09 he was so casual about it because I was like this guy looked like he was about to die and he was like if he's coughing he's breathing and then like walked out and I was like all right well I guess he's
Starting point is 01:09:19 and then he ended up being okay but it was definitely like I didn't know what to do because I kind of forgot how to do the the hymook maneuver what would you do in that situation I think I would probably hit his back
Starting point is 01:09:29 but then I would realize I'm not helping pretty like I would I would not be helping I don't know what you did but I would like yeah I would just kind of like uh like like
Starting point is 01:09:39 I think I maybe would, if there was no one around, I would attempt to do the Heimlich maneuver. And I feel like I would do a, maybe would kill the guy. I don't know what would happen. Be honest, you'd have stolen his food. Is it okay, are you going to finish that? But the Heimlich maneuver would get behind the guy. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:56 I have told the story before in the podcast, but it's funny when I mentioned Togo's earlier. I, when I was eight years old, I was, I choked on a piece of pastrami in, oh, and it goes. And it was not like a coughing situation. It was like I was actually choking. It was caught in my esophagus. And my dad gave me the Heimlich maneuver in the togos. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 01:10:16 We're sitting right next to a table of guys who were like, you know, disgusted because they just saw a kid like get fucking, like being basically forced to puke out his dinner or his lunch onto the table. Like one of the pastrami shoot out and land on one of the guy's sandwiches. Like, all right. That's what I'm talking about. Now it's corn beef. Yeah. You know, how old were you when it happened? Like eight, yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:41 Wow. Yeah. It really works, though. It works. It feels like I only seen it in movies, but like. My dad gave me, and I got the hymling maneuver. I said this when I was in his, uh, in his office as a child, I was choking on a hard candy. And he ran down the hallway and he, and I don't think he knew how to do it.
Starting point is 01:10:55 That happened to me. I choked on a warhead. Yeah. Yeah. The sour one. It's like, it's so scary. That's, because you got a warhead down your throat too. That thing is, that's not easy.
Starting point is 01:11:04 Oh, man. It was, it was a nightmare. But I'm, I don't know if you guys. guys are having this like i think i'm something to do at the time we're in but i'm having it i'm choking a lot in general are you know are you all noticing that like like like just like when i eat i'm just having trouble like doing it well i haven't been dealing with that yeah that's like when you're buying it older isn't it the crazy thing that the older i get i feel like i get nervous like i can't swallow or something and it is crazy with just when you choke on something
Starting point is 01:11:31 that it's like oh man in like two minutes i could just be dead yeah that is a very wild feeling to have Especially if you're alone. Like, you know, which that's a whole thing that probably they should be teaching people is how to give the Hy-Moc maneuver to yourself. But it seems to be less of a priority. What the hell do you do it to yourself? You do not like a back of a chair or something. Oh, that's good to know.
Starting point is 01:11:49 Yeah, yeah. There's also a thing my mom has. He's the house weak because my brother chokes a lot and I've seen him give, he's got the, he's got on the hemick a lot. They're called Life Fax and it's like a suction thing you can put it on your mouth or on someone else's and it like uses suction to like, oh yeah. We talked about life facts. Because I think we talked about how we wanted like.
Starting point is 01:12:06 have one here. Try the High Life Vak on our hot. I think we were talking about. On your hogs? I think we were talking about delian on our hogs. We maybe also talked about reversing it so we could shoot food into our mouth. We probably explored. Belth area on your hold too.
Starting point is 01:12:17 So it just, you could do that. That would be good out of it. That'd be really efficient. Yo, that's tight. They should have that at all the rest or us. Yeah,
Starting point is 01:12:25 that's smart. The he's really only get one good shot. Once you get the air out of the lungs, like you can't do it again usually. Right. And like this you can do to yourself, which is also like if you're a home alone choking or something. I think just even having it in my house, I probably won't do it as much.
Starting point is 01:12:38 No, I think the fact that I have it will keep me like, because I'm like, oh, yeah, yeah, for sure. Because I'm like, oh, yeah, right. Like, it's, I think it's all anxiety. It could be, like, a swallowing thing. Like, they say technique. Like, if you're on your phone or a laptop a lot and you, like, lean forward, your ability to swallow changes over time slowly. Oh, really? Did you tell me it was better to face downwards in your small.
Starting point is 01:12:57 Is that what you're talking? Yeah, like, if you're taking a pill, instead of, like, looking up, you should just kind of, like, look slightly down and swallow because it opens your esophagus a little bit more. Yeah. Because I can't swallow pills. I mean, it's funny. I feel like every podcast I'm on. I keep talking about this. But I'm having trouble swallowing pills too.
Starting point is 01:13:13 But I keep going like this. Yeah, which cuts your esophic is off. Yeah. So you're saying go like this. Like not like look down down, but just like put the pills in your mouth and just kind of like put your chin down a little bit. Oh. On the pot on my body. The audience was saying put, do it with apple sauce.
Starting point is 01:13:30 Like put apples sauce and swall in a pill with that. So I don't know. As a kid, I used to have, I used to have. I used to have a lot of trouble swallowing pills. Now, again, anything, any old thing can get swallowed down there. It's not, now, now I can, is I, all right. All right. Want to dress up like a doctor?
Starting point is 01:13:48 I need mouth to mind. Hey. It's, I wonder if it is, like, like, psychosomatic to some degree because I don't have, it don't experience that, but what I do, what I have, do have, and this is resurfaced lately. Actually, this is surfaced for the first time. and they resurface us periodically last year, which is I, like, have, like, gagging fits when I get really anxious. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:13 And that seems like it's similar to the choking thing. It's, like, almost like your body is involuntarily, like, fighting you doing something. I've seen you get into one of those gagging fits once. I did not like to witness it. Yeah. I saw it. I did. I saw it one time.
Starting point is 01:14:27 Where were, was that here? It was during doughboys. You were, you were, like, you were. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I know I had to kind of fight it back once, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Like, it's like your body's doing the thing, but you know, you don't consciously know you don't need to do that. Right, right.
Starting point is 01:14:42 That's exactly what's happening. Like, because there will be a whole four or five years where I had no problem swelling pills. And all of a sudden, I'm like, in my head now, and I'm like, I can't do it. I can't do it. And I'm like, don't. And I just give up. It's weird. I had a fucking hard it was to just swallow Tylenol when you were a little boy.
Starting point is 01:14:57 Oh, yeah. Yeah. Why the hell was it so hard to do it? I don't know. I don't know. You're smaller. Yeah, I guess that's what it is. Maybe the tube.
Starting point is 01:15:04 Maybe it's just a tube thing. I think there's also something of like your... You know, in Brazil, you can get your tube bigger. Really? Yeah, it's a Brazilian tube lift. Oh, a BTL, yeah. BTF. I'm gonna go see, by the way, I'm seeing the new...
Starting point is 01:15:21 He and I love it 28 years later. I was a big... Oh, yeah. The other one looks crazy. The bone collector or whatever's... I'm seeing that tonight with... Ah, the bone temple! Oh, it's crazy.
Starting point is 01:15:32 What a title. I'm seeing it tonight with Gabor. It's a 10.30 p.m. show. I know way past your bedtime. That's how you look at the poster. He's like, full tipa. Is that the Ralph fine-ass? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:44 Fine-ass Ralph. He's the one that was in the Pope movie, right? Yes. Yeah. Conclay. And I got to say, he's great in 28 years later. And I was one of my favorite movies of the year. Marty, I think maybe, Marty Supreme might be my favorite movie of the year.
Starting point is 01:15:58 After I rewatched this, I will, I rewatched it. And I was like, I think it might be... Yeah, what do you all think is going to take the gold or take the... One battle after another? I liked one battle after another a lot. I think that feels like the consensus pick. That's my favorite of the year. Yeah, I liked it a lot.
Starting point is 01:16:10 It was so good. Sean Penn was killing me. There's a lot of online discourse about it right now. I don't know if you see any of that. I know. Oh, man. Oh, I bet it's really good. I bet it's super compelling.
Starting point is 01:16:21 It's not. It's... And also, everyone's heads are screwed on correctly. No one's overreacting. Yeah. Well, I told you that. People were like, like, like, like, with the, with the, Bone Temple. People were like, I didn't really like
Starting point is 01:16:32 28 years later. I've seen so many things like that. I'm like, I don't, I don't get what, I didn't know that people didn't like 20 years later. You didn't like it? I thought it was, people, I loved it, personally. You're saying specifically there are people who liked Bone Temple, but did not like 28 years later. And that to you seems very strange. It seems strange. I thought it was one of the best movies of the year. Yeah. Is that, that's pretty scary. That's pretty scary. It's pretty scary. It's pretty
Starting point is 01:17:00 gross. But it's also like an incredible story about just like being alive which is just like I don't know. In the same way one battle of whenever they're the same the same sort of thing it just kind of like responded to how human it was so yeah I mean What's wrong with the one battle? No people don't like it or they hate. Is it going to take it?
Starting point is 01:17:18 There's things about it's politics and then PTAs. Like what they're in politics? What the movie's politics are guy? Bernie Sanders old press secretary has been tweeting about it a lot. There's a lot of I know her. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:33 There's a lot of, look, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I don't. I don't. I just look for this stuff. I don't. I just look for it. I don't. I just look on stuff. And I was just like, how do you find this? That came up in my feed. Why is that your feed though? Well, that's what happens. It knows it, it knows it. And now it's feeding it to you. I'm not trying to be an angry guy. I am not. And I, and I, I like the movie. I love, I love, I love both movies. I love, I love both movies. I'm not trying to be I'm more mad at the industry Yeah Yeah I was on the toilet
Starting point is 01:18:05 And then I had to do an audition It was 30 second audition What good is that? I didn't fucking They were like short and sweet I did it and then it was oh I'm like well I skipped wiping for this
Starting point is 01:18:16 I stand up real quick But I'm telling you I maybe didn't flush that toilet I don't you say that You were doing an audition for who I know what I know is a pretty big, would be a pretty big role if you get it. Yeah. And you had an unflushed turd in a neighboring room.
Starting point is 01:18:37 You got a floater. Two feet behind me. That's crazy. Is it still unflushed? No, he flushed it. I checked the cam. Okay. Let's talk to that footage.
Starting point is 01:18:47 That's all never get a toilet cam. You'll hack into that. The camera goes wherever you go. You got to set it up. That's cool, though. Hopefully you get it. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:56 I mean, it's just a soap. You know, when you do one, it's so. so fast. I was like, I thought I did it all right job, but they really fucking were like, you get nervous shit. Like when you, when you have to do like a performance, you get, you have to take a shit before? There was a big, there was a big one, the one, we've mentioned this now, the one that would have ended doughboys. There was a big one where I, uh, where I, where I, where I barfed, uh, before the audition. And it was, I was on Zepaunt. So I,
Starting point is 01:19:20 that doesn't normally, you know, that doesn't normally happen. Right, right. Yeah, I get like, it's funny how your stomach is, it goes all, right, straight. Whatever I get nervous, it's like, straight to the stomach. Yeah, yeah. Right, yeah. The, uh, with that, man. More so,
Starting point is 01:19:33 I, I wonder, yeah, probably more than having to throw up. I feel like the other way is usually what I, I think I probably get more nervous. Right, right.
Starting point is 01:19:42 Yeah, yeah. Yeah, throwing up is like what I see in movies a lot. Like, I'm so nervous. Uh-huh. Yeah,
Starting point is 01:19:47 or like, like Eminem in that movie when he had, uh, he threw up the monster. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:52 Yeah. One thing, I do actually like in Creed, uh, to the Rankougood movie that, that, that, he gets, Michael B. Jordan gets nervous before a match and he's shit.
Starting point is 01:20:00 So I was like, oh, you don't put that in movies. That's a real thing. I thought that was cool. Yeah, yeah. You had to take the gloves off. I like Creed. I got to rewatch Creed. That was good.
Starting point is 01:20:08 It's good. I like that guy. What's his name? Michael B. Jordan? Yeah, yeah. Is there, I don't want to talk about him, too? No, he's good. I think he's, I think he's fine.

Starting point is 01:23:05 And nobody likes being watched, even if you have nothing to hide. If you want to keep your browsing private, and I do, let me tell you. Reduce your digital footprint and increase your online security, then NordVPN is the perfect solution. A VPN reroutes your internet traffic through a secure server, encrypting your data and hiding your real IP address. That means better privacy, better security, and no one knowing where you're actually browsing from.
Starting point is 01:23:31 Here's the thing I like about a VPN. Because I'm a film fan, a bit of a cinema buff, a cinephile, if you will. And also, I specifically love anime. But a lot of times, the way these are streamed or distributed, you can't find the content you're looking for in the territory in which you live. However, you get yourself a VPN, you just join from a different territory. and all of a sudden that content that is walled off regionally is made available to you. NordVPN makes it very simple.
Starting point is 01:24:05 It really does. Just one click to connect and enjoy fast speeds and access to over 8,900 servers across 129 countries so you can switch your virtual location anytime. It's great for protecting your data on public Wi-Fi, accessing your streaming services while traveling, avoiding ISP throttling, and keeping your online identity private.

The link is in the podcast episode description box. If a celebrity is being discussed online with universal reverence and fandom, it might be Danny Trejo because. A beloved actor, someone who everyone seems to like, and someone who people seem to like working with, and certainly has had a storied career, which is continuing at the age of 81. I couldn't believe he's 81.
Starting point is 01:25:09 My jaw hit the floor when you said this why. Or in 1944. Trejo's tacos, his namesake restaurant was found in 2016. It has since expanded to Treos' donuts and coffee, which I've been to, and Trejo's spirits, which I have not been to. And Trejo has a presence there. In fact, he was at the restaurant yesterday. I get played co-host and good friend Matt Appadaka got to meet him and got a pick with him. Wow.
Starting point is 01:25:31 How wild is that? That's so cool. Apadaka, tone it down. You don't have to approach every celebrity and get a picture. Okay? He's just trying to, he's just trying to visit his restaurant. Am I wrong, Nick? You yell at him for a little bit, would you?
Starting point is 01:25:45 Matt, what are you doing? Yeah, yeah, Matt. Let me get on Matt real quick. Because he'd invite me to your wedding and we had a big conversation about it, real upset about it. Don't ever do that again. What are you doing? What are you doing? Would you invite Danny Trejo to your wedding?
Starting point is 01:26:00 You probably would. He 100% would, yeah, for sure. I think he said in, no, in fairness to Matt, he said Trejo is going around to every table and saying high to people. Because he's just like, he's gregarious. It feels like a restaurant like that. Yeah, yeah. If he's there, it feels like that's part of the experience. He's being the host, yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:19 Like, if I was not from L.A., and I saw that, I would be like, maybe he'll be in there. Right, right. You would think he might be in there. Yeah. What a dream that would be. I mean, if you visited L.A. And he was talking about it. He was in there.
Starting point is 01:26:29 There must have been some tourists in there. Probably. Holy shit. Machete himself. Machete himself. Yeah. I went to Nazz as a restaurant called, uh, um, I'm a blanking, but something chicken. It's like a chicken restaurant on.
Starting point is 01:26:44 The chicken is mine. It's like wingmatic. No, but, uh. The city is mine, Wags. Yeah, I know. Oh, you do know it. Oh, it just wasn't that good. Oh, is it's a world's right.
Starting point is 01:26:57 Yeah, the world is mine is a Jay Z song. So this is something I noticed like white guys do a lot. They say things confidently. It'd be real wrong about it. Well, the doughboys. Worked out pretty well for me so far. Yeah, sweet chick. That's a call.
Starting point is 01:27:13 So sweet chick, I went there because I, Nogh, I was my favorite rapper in the whole world. I love Nause. And he was in there. He was in there. That's incredible. It was cool. If Naz opened up a restaurant called Wing Matic,
Starting point is 01:27:24 I think I would. That was big of cool. I would like, I would visit it. I mean, I think that with a lot of. Nas line from that album stuck with me. Understandable smooth shit that murderers moved with. Oh, what a beautiful, sonorous phrase. The thief's theme would be a cool name for a restaurant too.
Starting point is 01:27:42 You looked at me like I said something weird, so I thought I fucked up. No, you didn't, no. You're just staring through me. No. I don't know what's happened. You're doing great. We're having fun. We're talking Trejo's talking.
Starting point is 01:27:54 Which I've been to before. I was going to a few times. I was going to see a lot of celebrity places I always kind of go in skeptical. Yeah, I think it's natural. It's funny. I was talking to a friend about Shaq's Big Chicken. Someone to work about Shaq's Big Chicken today. Which we wanted to love more than anything in the world.
Starting point is 01:28:09 And we had a pretty disappointing. It was pretty bad. Like something like that, I feel like he's probably not involved, right? Like as much. I don't know. I can't tell. I mean, we went to, we've done two Shaq restaurants because we went with Josh Winer or we went to the other downtown shack restaurant that closed.
Starting point is 01:28:22 Remember? What was that? Was that Shaquil's? Shaquille's yeah, that was the sit-down place, which I liked. Right. And that one for some reason, regret it. Oh, then when I was by the Stable Center? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:32 Oh, yeah. That was that, what wasn't too bad? Yeah, that's fun. Yeah, we liked it more. He's like, because he probably has good taste of food, so you know it's got to be, like, if you go there, it's not good. I feel like he's probably not, like, in there. He has also a celebrity I love, we all love more than anyone.
Starting point is 01:28:47 We wanted it to be good. Yeah. But Shaq is also like he just will attach his name to anything. He's like Krusty the clown in that way. He just likes to endorse. things. Yeah. Fine.
Starting point is 01:28:56 Sure. Yeah. God bless. Because if I had my name on a restaurant, like a wings plate, like I love wings, right? There's no way it could be bad. Like I would be, obviously, even if I had nothing to do with it. Yeah, for sure. Like Mar-Mar's Wing Hut or whatever.
Starting point is 01:29:10 Mar-Mar's Wing Hut. It'd be a point of pride for you. You'd like, I want this to be good. Right, right. If someone with people we were talking shit about it, I'd be pissed. Yeah. Because it might not be your fault. It might just be what something's going on up in there.
Starting point is 01:29:22 Well, to say that, all of that out there, the first of that out there, the first time I went to Trejo's Tacos, I was not impressed. I'll just say that. I didn't, I didn't, the first time I went there, I was like, this is whatever. I like kind of didn't. Yeah. And this was like many years ago when I first opened. And I was just kind of like, whatever. And then I didn't go. I went back probably a year ago with Neil and Fran, uh, friends of the pod, Neil Campbell and Frank Glesby. And we, and we ate there and I was like, I was having a good time. That's all I'll say. And then today's experience, we'll get in. I had a similar experience. I went there by myself was like kind of weak and then I went there with my homie Zique I wonder if like being there
Starting point is 01:29:58 where people like changed it or something but I went to the one in uh on Santa Monica in Hollywood and it was fun in there we were having a blast we were like just chopping it up drinking margaritas the entire it was like I was like this is a great experience yeah the one the one way you're talking about the one near the where the arc light used to be or yeah like it's like where you know remember big wangs over there yeah yeah that's like right where it's the exact same one I went to too oh yeah it was a vibe in there but it I don't really remember it. That was a long time ago.
Starting point is 01:30:25 Yeah. Yeah. It wasn't, like, bad. Not a place, though. Like, so this is the third time I've ever gotten Trejo's tacos. Right. I don't get it often. I probably had it like a half dozen times.
Starting point is 01:30:35 I mean, yeah, it's like, this is the thing. It's, there's not near where I live. It has been near some jobs I've had. And then also, there's just so many options for Mexican in L.A. Yeah. Like, you know, but, but I like that it exists. I think it's really fun. And I like how much he cares about it.
Starting point is 01:30:52 Yeah. Like it's just, this isn't a thing that he just, again, just endorsed, just put his name on and then someone else is running it. Like, he seems to be pretty involved. That's really, he's a dope dude. Like, when we were doing the strike, he, were you around when he would come pull up and bring water to everybody? I wasn't at that location. Oh, yeah. But I heard about that.
Starting point is 01:31:10 He would pull up and his, like, super dope low rider. And he would have all this water in the trunk and, like, be blast of music. And then we'd all walk and he would just hand it out. I was like, oh, this dude is cool as shit. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:21 That's awesome. Yeah, there were certain celebrities that you'd see like, oh, wait, they're going out of their way to do something for people who, they don't have to do this versus their other ones who are just like staying silent and invisible. And it's just like, oh, you kind of, your level of respect goes up for, you know, those people you cross paths. So Barbara Hershey on the picket line. How cool is that? Barbara Hershey, legendary actor. She has had a really, really big, a great career. Kind of, I think, peaked in the 80s.
Starting point is 01:31:47 But she, yeah, like an older woman came up to me and asked if she could. hold my arm just because we were watching. Oh, I know her. Yeah. And yeah, you've definitely seen Barbara Hershey in a bunch of stuff. But, and then I realized it was Barbara Hershey.
Starting point is 01:32:01 I was like, how about that? Barbara Hershey is, is Jeannie, right? Or no. No, no, no, no. Oh, no. Who is she?
Starting point is 01:32:08 Who is Barbara Hershey then? She was in a boxcar, Bertha, early Scorsese movie. Oh. She was in beaches? Yeah, beaches. Okay. I think I know.
Starting point is 01:32:17 What the hell is a genie? What's Jeannie's name? Is it Barb or something? Who cares? There is a Barbara There is a Barbara Eden? Yeah, who gives a fuck? Barbara Eden.
Starting point is 01:32:27 Barbara Eden. Barbara Eden. Barbara Eton. Barbara Eton. No one didn't even mix up. Barba Eat and be eating Hershey. This is worse than the Nazza and J.Z. Screw up I had earlier.
Starting point is 01:32:40 At least they're not in ultimate rivals. But I seen, you know who I saw that? It was like my big celebrity side was Boots Riley. I was on the pick of line. Oh, that's cool. That was cool. I was like, holy shit. just walking right next to me.
Starting point is 01:32:52 That was cool. Yeah. I pulled up to the picket line, like I pulled up in my ultimate, I put doughboys decals on it and stuff. Oh, and I offered everyone walking like some hot soup and no one was, like no one was really happy to see me.
Starting point is 01:33:07 I guess like, you know, I guess I'm not really a celebrity. I guess is another side of it too. That was, that was long enough ago, where we are coming up on another contract. Like,
Starting point is 01:33:17 like this is like the new, the new cycle of contract negotiations this week. When is it? This year, 2026. Jesus Christ. Isn't that wild? What do you think it's going to happen? I don't, like, what do I know?
Starting point is 01:33:28 But I don't think there's going to be another word stoppage because it was so ruinous for the studios last time. Yeah. But maybe they know that. Maybe they know, maybe they might take advantage of that. Maybe they could plan for it now. Yeah. It's like, who fucking knows? It just depends.
Starting point is 01:33:41 I like, like, the amount of unchecked greed is impossible to overestimate. So, so we can very well be shut down. I can't believe it's already here again. Isn't that fucking wild. It's like we were just on strike. Yeah. It sucks. Why don't we do it every five years?
Starting point is 01:33:57 Why is it every three years? I, you know, I don't quite, I can't claim to completely understand the nuances of, you know, organized labor negotiations and these collective bargaining agreements. But I was told by someone who does that it actually puts the guild in a stronger position to have more frequent contracts. So, you know, whatever. That's one approach. I just want to be a person who regularly gets work and it's never, I don't know. think it's ever going to happen. You've been untwisted now.
Starting point is 01:34:23 I know. I'm very grateful for it. I am. I'm lucky in many ways. Was that scary? I saw the scene with you and it was like blood all over your face. It gets, it gets blood. But it's not, it's never, you'll never get scared.
Starting point is 01:34:35 It's never, it's never scared. No, it's more action. And it's funny too. And Mitch is great in it. Yeah, it was funny. But that's all, it was great. It would be great to be. You're amazing.
Starting point is 01:34:42 First of all, can I tell you, I think you're brilliant. Like, I've been wanting to do something with you for so long. Oh, that we're going to do something. That's making me blush. I mean, but I don't know what I don't know what I'm doing. Well, I love you, buddy. That's very kind of you to say. I just want to work regularly.
Starting point is 01:34:57 I'm going to get you on my next album, too, I'll do a skit or something. I would love, hey, you know, I'm very, I'm very down for that. Maybe two down, like you said. I'll just say I've been collaborating with Mitch for a decade and don't get your hopes of. No, Mitch is the best, of course. Oh, you both of you guys. But I think you're a star, man.
Starting point is 01:35:15 I really do. And I'm good at that shit. I can pick that shit out. I mean, everyone gets frustrated. That's the issue with the industry that we're in is that you don't work consistent. And there are, you're talking about a reason. There are plenty of people with families who work in all, you know, fields, all departments in the industry and they're just deal with the same sort of sporadic work, you know.
Starting point is 01:35:35 It's, it's, yeah, it's amazing that people are able to do it because you just have to cobble enough things together. I wonder if, I mean, there's no way that Danny Trejo needs the restaurant. He's been so successful. But there is a thing where you sometimes find out about these, like, select. side projects and they're like, oh, wait, or or people who are like maybe not top tier celebrities, not superstars who aren't getting like the $20 million contracts where it's like, oh, they're doing this in part because this is like a consistent way to bring in money.
Starting point is 01:36:06 You know what I mean? Like it's not. Yeah. And I don't think that's the case with Trejo's tacos, but it just because we're having this conversation. He seems, yes, he seems passionate about it. He does seem to really care about it. And it seems successful. I mean, like, I remember when it first opened, the first one, I was.
Starting point is 01:36:20 it on Santa Monica and La Brea, and it, there's, like, so many more since then. Yeah, it's, it's, like, really took off. Like, yeah. So, I mean, it might be his most, it might be helping him more than anything else. Like, oh, yeah, for sure. I think people, I'd like, why, because, like, I think, you were saying it's, like, I think it's turned into a bit of a tourist spot. And I'll say this, for Christmas this year, I got two Trejo's Tacos cookbooks for my mom, two different ones. Wow. Really? Yeah, two different. You got, she got that for you? She got that for me for Christmas. Christmas. She did. And then she's like, we got to go when I'm out there. So I'm like, my mom has, my mom, you know, a 77 year old lady has heard about, has heard about Trejo's tacos and wants to go to, wants to go to Trejo's tacos when she's out here. Have either of you had Trejo's donuts? Nah. I have not. I have. I think it's pretty good. And I actually like their coffee. It's like, is like, anything special about it? Is it just a donut shot? It's a pretty straightforward, straight ahead donut and coffee place. But I like that it's that. I like that it's not like the elevated approach.
Starting point is 01:37:18 I think this is why my guard was up, because Trejo's tacos and Trejo's donuts both appeared at the same time. I was like, what's going on here. That's what I really understand what was happening with both of them. Yeah. But, you know, like two with the same, it feels. Were they simultaneous? Well, I don't know. I just remember seeing Treos' Donuts.
Starting point is 01:37:34 Yeah. They were very close. It was like right next to each other. I forgot which one, maybe one, maybe the donuts one was first. Yeah. I don't know. I think the donuts is maybe, yeah, I think you're right. Donuts is maybe first.
Starting point is 01:37:46 Yeah, but it's like, it's regular. It's not like a machete show. shaped donut or whatever. Right, right. It's just like donuts. In my memory, but I'm sure they have some tie-in stuff on occasion, but, you know, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's very treho forward. It looks like tacos and donuts opened a year apart.
Starting point is 01:38:04 Tacos was 2016, donuts was 2017. Thank you, Emma. Oh, that was wrong about that. Yeah. And surprise the pandemic, too. That is really close. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:13 I mean, that's, that's what in my mind, I was just like, he was like, we got to do a donuts one right now. Yeah. We should talk about our food. Lamar, you got a beef barbacoa bowl. Yeah. But you got a steak asada burrito, a beef barbacoa taco and a chicken tinga taco. I got a spicy shrimp taco because I'm a bit of a heat seeker. I got a chicken tinga cassidia.
Starting point is 01:38:33 And we got a breakfast burrito to share, as well as some chips and cheesy bean dip and guacamole and salsa. I mean, you've had this before? Yeah, yeah. What is your, like, have you had it as takeout? Well, you know, as we were talking, I realized I had it a lot. I forgot that when I lived in Mid City, there was one that opened up right next to my house. I actually had it a lot. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 01:38:57 Well, for some reason, I forgot it was like a – I just thought of it as a taco place, but it was at Trejo's Tacos. And so I have a pretty good relationship with it. I like it a lot. The one in Hollywood I went to. But I didn't – you know, like you said, there's a lot of Mexican food out here, so it's just whatever. But I – yeah. What was the question? I mean, I was asking if you'd gotten it, if you've had a takeout before.
Starting point is 01:39:21 Oh, take out. No, no, I always had it there. I always had it there. What did you think of your bowl? I liked it. I liked it. I didn't like the beans as much. They felt like the black beans were a little like, I don't know,
Starting point is 01:39:33 I just didn't feel like they were like ready to go or something. Like they may have been sitting for a while. The meat was good. The barbecua was seasoned really well. I thought it was just like juicy, flavorful. I liked a little, this little, chips in there, but and the rice was great. So I'll
Starting point is 01:39:50 say, yeah, solid like a, like a minus, maybe. There's the tortilla strips in there, as the is the crunch you mentioned. That's what it is. Yeah. And then there's a Cotea cheese, and I know you don't do, again, you admit dairy. Did you have some of that cheese? Yeah, I did, you know, just a little bit. But that kind of cheese doesn't bother
Starting point is 01:40:08 me as much. It really is like the like that bullshit cheese. Like, you know, it's got to be, like, if it's fancy cheese, I'm good. Yeah. But yeah, but if It's like, you know. But yeah, that was, that was a good addition. I thought that was all right. I like a cotiha.
Starting point is 01:40:21 Cotilla. That is like, they sprinkle it. It was in the bean dip, too, by the way. Yeah. It was like it sprinkled on there. It's kind of like the Parmesan of Mexico. Yeah. It's like that little sprinkles.
Starting point is 01:40:31 It's like, like that doesn't bother me to me. It's nice. It's a nice touch. Yeah. Always delightful for me. Mitch, how was your burrito? Well, I started off walks before you guys even got there. I ate my two tacos because I was starving.
Starting point is 01:40:43 I hadn't eaten anything all day. One, because I was, I was. I had an audition. I was having whole issues as we talked about. So I didn't, I didn't eat anything
Starting point is 01:40:53 and then I ate the chicken tinga and the beef barbacoa taco. Those are, I had those right before you guys got in there. Oh, okay. And, by the way,
Starting point is 01:41:01 the taco concepts, a lot of them have tortilla strips in them, in the, in the tortilla, which is like an interesting like bit of texture. Yeah, I like it. Yeah, it was like putting chips
Starting point is 01:41:11 in your sandwich. Right, right. Yeah. This is, okay, so here's the issue. I think with, like you were saying, there's so many good,
Starting point is 01:41:16 you can get a lot of good tacos and burritos out here. And even like, like if you think about Pekito Moss, which I love Pekito Moss. Yeah, most is great. It's like, I can't be judging this place against that sort of, you know what I mean? Right. And today when I was eating it, I was just like,
Starting point is 01:41:33 I'm just going to try to go into this with the clear head, see what I think about it. Right. And I'm with you. I was eating that beef farco and I was like, this beef farcou is tasty. Yeah. Like you were saying, it's well seasoned.
Starting point is 01:41:43 Yeah. It's a, it's a, it's a well-made taco. And then the chicken tinga, same. It had some good spice going on. Right, right. I enjoyed it. And then, why? So you know.
Starting point is 01:41:52 That's a stupid question. Like, or I don't know if it's stupid, but when they say tinga, what does that mean? Like, I think it's just, is it a sauce or is like a preparation. Okay. Um, I, I can look for the exact definition. But yeah, I mean, like, I've seen it at places where just. It's like, put asato, like, a flavor. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:42:09 Well, it stands for, I think chicken tinga specifically is like a simmered, pulled chicken made with a sauce made from tomatoes. onions, garlic, smoky chippoly, peppers, and adobeau sauce. Damn. I say that again. You know some places and they just call it Tinga, they admit the chicken, but I think it's like, you know, an indicator for people.
Starting point is 01:42:31 Gotcha, that's. Which we did Gisado's together. Because I remember the Tink, I was like, oh, it's tinger like a type of meat, but I think it was just like a seed, it's a way of pepper. It was prepared or whatever. That one fucked me up, though.
Starting point is 01:42:45 You're talking about, man, that was a rough night when we went there. Gissados is, I think I said it's a six forker. I love Gisados, yeah. Gisados is one of the... I had risados today. Did you really? What did you get? I got a breakfast taco, their Mexicana breakfast taco.
Starting point is 01:43:00 Ooh, I bet that's good. And a fish taco is... Oh, have you been to the one, there's like the same owners have a fish place down the street? Yeah, down the street. It's good, yeah. It's like Marcosos or something. Yeah, yeah. Is that on sunset?
Starting point is 01:43:15 it just like down here. It's not like it's like an outside window stand. It's when you drive by it every day. Was it Marisco's holistos? Is that what it was in one point? I forget the, it's good. It is good. It's always busy no matter what time I drive by.
Starting point is 01:43:26 We should do it for lunch someday. Yeah. It's a different style fish taco too then. Were you giving a look because you got a breakfast burrito and a fish taco? I think there was something about a little asynchronous about a breakfast taco and a fish taco. Well, I like my first bite of the day to be eggs. So. Right.
Starting point is 01:43:43 I had to have the first bite be eggs And then I was trans- Are you pescatarian? No, I just really like fish You always roll the dice on fish I always roll the dice on fish Did you have like a pallet cleanser between Do you have like some chips and salsa?
Starting point is 01:43:56 No You went straight like just just raw dog the fish one Yeah No transitions needed So you like what time was this The day of the day? This is about 1 p.m. Okay so it's like brunch
Starting point is 01:44:07 No it's a reasonable time I just like to me that that feels like An interesting companion for a fish taco and egg taco. But I get, I understand your rationale. I'm glad I enjoyed it. When my mom comes out here, she's got to get. It slapped. My mom, my mom needs that fish taco and she needs the horchata from Gisados every time she comes
Starting point is 01:44:28 out. She loves, that's her favorite. I want to go back so bad, but yeah, I can't. Yeah. But that's interesting, though, fish talk. Because I'm thinking about getting rid of meat, getting meat out of my diet. I don't know. I certainly, you know, I had a year where I, anyway, had no meat shell I eat and I didn't eat any meat or, or fish either. I excluded all of it.
Starting point is 01:44:52 And, but I still had dairy. And I did feel better, but I actually gained a little bit of weight because it was eating more net carbs, I think. Oh, interesting. But I will have it noticed. Oh, you look good. Thank you. But I have, everyone looks good. I feel I do really like eating pescatarian.
Starting point is 01:45:11 And I have stretches where I've done that, where I'm just like, I'm just eating, like, pretty much for, for, you know, the first two meals a day, generally, I don't eat meat. Right. And I just like how I feel better. Yeah, yeah. You know, you all like, I will say sushi, like, is probably the one food I can eat that my body, like, loves. Yeah. I have no issues after. I've had maybe one bad sushi experience in my life, but overall, it's totally fine for me. Okay.
Starting point is 01:45:37 I love sushi. What kind of fish was in there? Was it a fried fish or? I like grilled. It's grilled. It's really good. It's like maybe my favorite fish taco. Oh, I think I had it when we were real.
Starting point is 01:45:48 You maybe had it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was good. But we should go to the fish one. I want to go check it. Oh, I would love to. It's great. It's a good, it is a good spot.
Starting point is 01:45:55 I, I pull up on it. But look, Trejo's tacos is not going to be as good to me as Gisados. Yeah, for sure. But I think when I ate that steak, the Yassada burrito today, that was Jimmy snorting. when I ate that steak the burrito today I gave you a bite of it wags and you were like, that's fucking,
Starting point is 01:46:14 and I was like, it was really yummy. The quality of the steak was damn good. It was really, really good. And I, it's like a different thing. I wish that there was sour cream there.
Starting point is 01:46:22 Trejo doesn't like sour cream for whatever reason. There's maybe, there's got to be something behind that. Yeah, I wonder. I wonder what it is. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:46:29 And there's not, I mean, it's also different in that way, which is like, and maybe it's more authentic. I don't know, but like the heavy cheese. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:46:37 Like, You can get to bring you with some heavy cheese and some and some sour cream. And I like that, you know what I mean? And you can't really do either at this place, I feel like. Yeah, I don't think it's an authenticity play. I think there's maybe just the chef just doesn't want, just doesn't want to include it or something. Or Trejo himself doesn't like, I don't, I don't fucking know. But it does feel a little bit odd that there's no crema or sorry cream.
Starting point is 01:46:57 If it's just that locate, I thought I saw a crema on it when I was looking at the website at another one. But certainly know the options we got today at had sour cream. I got, I'll talk about my food. the breakfast burrito, which has scrambled eggs, three cheese blend, cheesy bean dip and tater tots, and salsa rojo. I enjoyed,
Starting point is 01:47:15 but I would consider like kind of the low light, just because of you like your first bite of the day to be eggs. I just didn't love the quality of these eggs. Yep, 100%. I heard of Barr say that. You said they were McDonald's. It tastes like the McDonald's.
Starting point is 01:47:28 Yeah, like they're not made from eggs. Like, it feels like that powdered mix or whatever. And I don't know if that's the case. They might use, they might crack fresh. They say fresh scrambled eggs. Oh, really? I believe them, but just like the version that we got, it was just, you know, kind of like a hard, it felt like a hard egg patty that was just like a little bit less pleasant texturely. For a breakfast burrito, I like, I like when the egg, like you almost have like that fresh scrambled eggs.
Starting point is 01:47:50 Oh, yeah, yeah. They're all scattered through the burrito. One of a hundred percent. This is just like a layer of egg. Yeah, it was like a seven layer burrito and one of the layers was egg. Yeah. I want to pull a feather out of my mouth when I get a breakfast burrito. That's the freshness I want.
Starting point is 01:48:04 Is that a nose lyric? Like you said. From Wingmatic. Yeah. I got a spicy, that spicy shrimp taco. Wingmatic coming soon. Legitimately had some real heat to it, which I like about this place. You know, again, I'm something of a heat seeker.
Starting point is 01:48:21 I like spice. And this place goes, has decent spice. So there's some hot salsa you're going to get here. But just even this one was just without some added salsa verde, which I later put on there. Like, yeah, I like the shrimp. The pickled onions were great. and I guess it does have some Verde Salsa Sla, included some, maybe we have the sort of the heat,
Starting point is 01:48:39 I added some additional, but the spicy Diablo sauce is doing a lot of, a lot of work. How do you feel about the, the taco, the corn tortilla? Yeah, I mean, it's a fine quality corn tortilla. Again, it's not, we're not dealing with gisados where it's like this is so clearly a fresh handmade tortilla. Maybe they are, but I don't get the sense at Trejos, and I feel like they'd advertise it if they were.
Starting point is 01:49:00 And the same deal with the flour tortilla on the, the burrito and then the chicken tinga casadilla which was a highlight Monterey Jack Monterey You toss that? No, it's in the fridge I was going to take it home. Oh, I won't try it.
Starting point is 01:49:15 No, you can have some. No, I wanted you to try it. I know you did. I'll give you. I also have some of a chicken tinge bowl if you want to try it. No, no, I ate chicken tic. I just, he just, he, I'll give you a, take a slice home. I can't take a cassidia piece.
Starting point is 01:49:27 Take a piece. Yeah, just put it on your lap on your cart. I'm going to eat hot d'all. I, honestly. I love it. I loved it. that was delicious. It was very heavy, but very filling, very sad.
Starting point is 01:49:37 Oh, you're going to get a movie hot dog? I'm going to see Casey, our friend Casey, and I'm going to eat a hot dog at the hangout with Casey. Oh, got it. You're going to a 1030 movie, and then you're hanging out with Casey afterwards? Hell no, I'm going to Casey's beforehand. What the hell? That's what I was going to say.
Starting point is 01:49:52 That's insane. Then I'm going to the Bone Temple, baby. You know what? This year, maybe I go to the Bone Temple myself this year. What, I can't get horned. Forney for one year on the fucking show? No, you do your thing. You can.
Starting point is 01:50:07 That's fine. I get a horny for one year. Is he doing a hot dog party or something? Yeah, he is doing a hot dog party. Yeah, yeah. Oh, I don't know if it's a hot dog party. Well, does Walts have hot dogs? Should I not docks it?
Starting point is 01:50:18 Oh, I mean, it's already. It's good. Oh, it's at the place where it has good hot dogs. I know. Oh, I didn't know that they did. Oh, those hot days are good as fuck. Yeah. Oh, good to know.
Starting point is 01:50:27 There's my dinner. My place this year is the, it's, you got to call my house the Bone Temple from here out. Me and Irma going at it. Take me to the Bone Temple. Oh, man. Ralph Fine-Az is in there. He's in there kicking it.
Starting point is 01:50:46 He's looking good with, he's very shirtless in the first one. It also makes sense to it because the first one deals with like a boy who loves his mother as well, as you know, Lex. I love that case of Dia. We got the cheesy, the cheesy bean dip. Really exceeded my experience. expectations. That was yummy. And in fact, I liked it more than the guacamole, which I thought was fine. Glock was, yeah, it was kind of basic? With the bean dip, was it a cheese mixed in there? Or was it just a cheese on top that made it a cheesy thing? I think there's a Cotilla on top, but there's
Starting point is 01:51:16 a three cheese blend mixed with it. Oh, okay. I think that's good. And some pickled jalapenos as well. So I had that with with, with, with Neil and Fram for the first time. And I really, I, it's fucking good. I like it just, I put like a, like a, like a, like a lip, I put a lip in it in my You know what I'm saying? Like chewing the back on. Just let it. Oh, yeah. Kind of like just sit there.
Starting point is 01:51:35 Like a zine. Yeah, I like, like, I'm just, I like, I like, uh, the flavor of that is, is, no, you can eat with a spoon. It's really good. It's specific to Trejo's too, this bean thing. Yeah. You'll see bean dip some places, but it's certainly not a staple of, of Mexican food menus.
Starting point is 01:51:50 Right, right. I don't know if that's more of a Tex-Mex thing. I feel like you'll see a queso there, but maybe, maybe, maybe it's cheese, and maybe cheesy bean dip is more common there. But, yeah, it's certainly not, not, not, not, not, not, a staple, like a like guacamole or salsa would be. But I really enjoyed it. I liked it was warm too.
Starting point is 01:52:08 Very fun. Let's just a little warm. I like that. Yeah, just a little warm. Yeah, I feel like I'm in the bone temple here. What hell's going on in there? Emma Meals, what did you all think of your bowls? I loved my bowl.
Starting point is 01:52:22 It was great. I'll probably eat the rest of it later. You got the Tinga Bowl and you got the... I got the black and salmon bowl. Yeah. Oh, I was going to get that. They liked fish, yeah. I love fish.
Starting point is 01:52:31 Like you guys, I had one other not so, you know, it was a mid experience with Trejos. This redeemed itself. That bowl was bad in a good way. It was really good. Wait, so here's what I'm wondering. What's your thoughts on like, because everybody's got a bowl thing now. It's true. And it feels like it's just what to do now.
Starting point is 01:52:57 But do you feel like it diminishes the. like what makes like Treyhills what it is like I feel like Because once I start eating the bowl I feel like I'm just It almost feels like interchangeable Like I'm at Chapulte or something Yeah I feel like a bowl is basically like a burrito
Starting point is 01:53:12 If you took the tortilla off And like dumped it in a bowl In my head that's how like a Mexican style bowl It's just like a burrito without the rap Yeah And everyone does them now and you know what I mean There's kind of an expectation Yeah there are other bowls where I'm like
Starting point is 01:53:24 That's just a pile of mushy things But like this ball was good There was good texture It had the tortilla strips in it and some corn. It felt like they put thought into how they want to craft it. Because I do have, I feel like I have a hard time comparing bowl. Like there's this place called mixed though.
Starting point is 01:53:40 You know what? Mixed out of there? And they got the bowls. It's a little different. But at some point when everything gets mixed in, it's like, I guess I feel kind of like I'm just eating the same thing. Yeah, for sure. 100. The mushification of lunches in many ways.
Starting point is 01:53:55 Yeah, yeah. It's a big problem. It's a nutrition. I get it. Yeah. And you know what? Like, I only, I ate two tacos and I ate half my burrito.
Starting point is 01:54:06 So I did all right. I did, I had a pretty big meal. But sometimes when you eat the bowl, it makes you feel like you're not having a big burrito, I guess, even though it's probably not too much of a difference, right? I feel like it's pretty close.
Starting point is 01:54:17 But I do a bowl to feel like I'm doing something a little bit up here. It makes you feel like. Every time I eat a bowl, like at Chipotle, I feel worse eating a bowl than I do a burrito. Yeah, I got that. I always, I like never, I'm like, ugh. there's like so much food in there.
Starting point is 01:54:31 Yeah, yeah. But yeah. So you had the fish talk, fish bowl? How was that? It was really good. Really? I loved it. Damn.
Starting point is 01:54:39 I was going to get that too. You really do bet on fish. I did look at that. It sounded good, but then I was like scared of delivery fish, but. Yeah, I know. That was like me too. Yeah, that's true. You were delivering it.
Starting point is 01:54:50 Yeah, so you knew you was protecting. I think this was a very solid outing from Trehost tacos, but, oh, we should talk about our Agua frescas. A couple of strawberry lemon, Agua frescas, I got a Hamaica, which I'm still working on here. Wait, what's the Hamaica?
Starting point is 01:55:04 This is a, it's like a hibiscus drink. It's, it's got a nice sweetness to it. I like it. I like it refreshing. It's got like a purple hue.
Starting point is 01:55:15 It also sounds like you're saying hello to me a little bit. Hi, hi, Micah. Hi, Micah. Hey, Micah Parsons. It's very nice. Yeah, it is nice.
Starting point is 01:55:21 It's nice. I liked, it was very sour, but I liked the strawberry. Yeah, I love it. It's hard to drink, like, but I think that's more about, where I'm at emotionally. I know you were Warheads guy.
Starting point is 01:55:32 There's an extreme sour taste to it. Yeah, but I do like, it's fucking delicious. It's so good. And it makes me happy, like, yeah. But his face is on there, which is cool. Because I'm always like when I do the Agua Fresca, I'm always like, I know this is like 400 calories of pure sugar. So I want this to be worth it. And this, to me, is worth it.
Starting point is 01:55:53 Like, I'm enjoying it, you know, so, yeah, I don't know. I like that they have them. It was a good outing all around, I feel. I think we were all happy in there. Let me ask a question. When you go in there, order the food, do they think you're a postmaids person? You know what?
Starting point is 01:56:10 They didn't. They did it. They did it. And I had a giant, like, a jetty cooler, too. But, um. You're like, oh, you must be taking care of people. The guy working there was super nice. And I didn't realize they were closed at four.
Starting point is 01:56:24 Yeah. So they were closing out. And I was like, I'm so sorry to have put in this huge order. right as you're closing. They're like, they're like, they're, that's strange.
Starting point is 01:56:32 The downtown location does. Oh, but they were very appreciative of the tip and they were very kind and everything was there. All right, next time y'all need food,
Starting point is 01:56:40 let me go get it. I want to see if they treat me different. I'm going to go get and see if they act here. Another one of those postmates guys. It is whack, y'all. How are you going to have a new stereotype?
Starting point is 01:56:51 Like, that shit didn't even exist when I was growing up. This is a new thing that I got to deal with. Yeah, that shit is whack, yo. Check out my album. I talk all about it. This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Starting point is 02:00:34 But just a reminder, we will all go around to give a closing argument, if you will, about this chain and give it a score from zero to five forks. You are a guest. We'll begin with you. All right. I'll give it four forks. Wow. I think this was really good. And I also sparked a memory that I totally forgot about that.
Starting point is 02:00:52 I used to go here all the time. It was right next door to my old house in Mid City, which I love that place. but I would say the food felt quality, especially being like transport, because I get worried about that too when it's in the car for a while, but everything felt fresh, good, aqua fresh good is hitting.
Starting point is 02:01:09 Yeah, no complaint. The chips were good, too. It was tightly, slightly a little too salty, like a little oversees on the chips, but I don't mind that. All the sauces were good. I like a variety of different sauces. Loved it.
Starting point is 02:01:23 Wow. Four spoons out here. Wow. Damn. All right. I was wondering where I would land today, Wags. Danny Trejo, from what I understand, is a very lovely man. Stephanie Beatrice, he was her dad on Brooklyn 9-9.
Starting point is 02:01:38 Yeah, yeah. Oh, that's right. He played her dad on Brooklyn 9-9. She speaks very highly of him. She loves Danny. And like I said, when I first, my first experience with this restaurant, I was so-so on it. And I, today, I, I, it can't be denied four forks.
Starting point is 02:01:58 It's a four for, for today. It was, uh, Oh shit, let's go. That was a good out. It was a really good outing by. I was, it was, uh, that was such a bad vibe on my part. Oh, that was a great five. All right, all right, thank you.
Starting point is 02:02:07 It was just left handed. That's the problem. That was the thing. But you know, it's weird, not weird, but you know what to speak to your point. I realize when, like, usually when we come at, like, we'll eat in the break, in the room or whatever. And it's usually like, we're just trying to get through it. So we can do the pod.
Starting point is 02:02:21 But there was a moment where I was like, it felt like we were just having a dinner and You know what I mean? Yeah, sure. I feel like that this meal has something to do with that. Like, it felt very like, hey, we're enjoying this and we're having it. Like, we could have just not, like, we could have just forgotten to do the pod. Like, 100%. We had, we had, it was a nice, it was a nice communal, we were, we got, we got, we got, we got, fun if this was just a dinner club.
Starting point is 02:02:46 We just got together and had meals. The podcast was just a dinner club? We didn't have to turn into content. I don't know how we'd monetize it, but it would be nice. No, we would be out on the streets, you fool. A nightmare. Wait, again, you would have to be eating all over to mic and stuff. Well, let me figure that out, yeah.
Starting point is 02:03:05 You're kind of always eating all over the mic. The thing that is sad to me about podcasting is that I see my friends through, but I guess when we did comedy, that's how you saw your friends do in a theater. You know what I mean? Yeah, sure. Yeah. People outside of it. That's real.
Starting point is 02:03:20 Yeah. But I do want to do something. I was thinking they do this podcast. Well, I don't want to promote another podcast. But it was, it's like a, it's like a, I don't even know if it's a podcast. It's like a video cast of all these men who eat dinner together and they talk or whatever. So I don't know if that's like what that is, but they have like a chef cook it. So it's like a different chef every episode or something like that.
Starting point is 02:03:41 Yeah, yeah. But it's always good. They're not judging the food, though, and it. So we should do that. I love that. All right. Let's talk about it. Wow.
Starting point is 02:03:48 You were cooking for people for a while. I know that. Yeah, there's something I like to do. I was doing this thing where I would cook for, because I had this thing when people get in a relationship, they kind of disappear. So I started like cooking for couples. So like say you got a girlfriend and I'll be like, I want to meet your girlfriend. And you come over, I will cook for both of y'all and then get to know both of y'all.
Starting point is 02:04:10 I like that a lot. Yeah, I did that a few times last year. Do you mind if I bring a few first dates over to your house? No, because then I'm just like your chef. Mitch is going to show up with his cats. He's like, hey, I got a good other girl. Can you cook for us? I guess I was asking you to pretend.
Starting point is 02:04:28 I was going to say I'm asking you to pretend to be my personal chef, I guess. It's not fair. All right, my thoughts on Treos tacos. I'm making a phone call. I'm trying to get Apodak on the line. Oh, wow. Hey, Matt, you there? Hey, you there, buddy?
Starting point is 02:04:44 Hey, buddy. How you doing? I'm doing well. You're on dough boys. Oh, wow. Hey, man. How's it going? What up?
Starting point is 02:04:49 Hey, well. Lamar Woods is here. What up? Matt, what's happening? Oh, yeah, Lamar. What's up? Why you invite me to your wedding, man? What's happening?
Starting point is 02:04:56 Here we go. We still never resolve that. Abadaka, can I just say something to you? Yeah. You lived in Hollywood. How many years have you been in Hollywood? I mean, gosh, many years, many years at this point. Leave the celebrities alone.
Starting point is 02:05:15 Stop approaching the celebrities. No, I disagree. I think life is short, man. You see somebody that's famous. You got to go say something. Because I saw somebody I really love and I missed opportunity. What'd you say? I had to defend myself.
Starting point is 02:05:31 I 100% agree with Mitch. I see people all the time. I leave him alone. But here's what happened. I'm sitting at Treyhos, can'tina. First, I see Jason Mews. I leave him alone. I leave him alone.
Starting point is 02:05:46 All right. Jason Muse is there. He tells staff, we're waiting for Danny Treyho. Dane Trejo's on his way. And I'm like, okay, I'm going to maybe get a glimpse of Dany Trejo. This is a likely place for him to be. You know, it's his restaurant. He's there all the time.
Starting point is 02:06:03 I've never seen him there. He walks in, he starts going to every person in some restaurant and starts greeting them. He came over to me. I would have taken the photo otherwise if he came up to me. Can I, can I tell you what I think happened? He walks in there. He's like, oh, Apodocusia. Let me get ahead of this.
Starting point is 02:06:21 And he just went to every table. Yeah, yeah. For this motherfuckettling tongue. You want you to ask me for a picture? He's annoyed by my presence. That's what I would do if I was celebrity. I would do that. That way no one can bother me.
Starting point is 02:06:33 Then I can go back and chill. The smart strategy. Yeah. Here's what going on. I'm on the phone here. Mitch would never say this to my face. You would never be treating me this way if I was in the room. He's got you there.
Starting point is 02:06:48 Look. Pull up right now. Where are you at? Yeah, pull up. I'm not. I'm going to try to kick my ass. We're going to wrap this up. Yeah, let's get down right now.
Starting point is 02:07:00 Abadaka... Did Trejo say anything to you? Did you say anything to him? What was the interaction? He was popping around, going over people's tables and stuff. He sat in a couple booths with people. He put his hand on my shoulder and was like, thanks for being at my restaurant.
Starting point is 02:07:18 And I was like, hey, you're welcome. It was a very sweet guy. He's a little or little. I expected, but he's also 81 years old. Yes. He looks great. He reminds me my grandpa. And he
Starting point is 02:07:32 when I asked if it would be okay to take a picture with him, which other people were due. But I look, I'm never going to do this again. I had one shot. You know what I mean? I think this is totally fine. I think it's totally cool.
Starting point is 02:07:49 But he he took the picture with me and I was going to take it, you know, from one direction. And he was like, no, no, no, let's move here. The light's going to be behind us if we do it this way. And this guy's a pro. He's been on set. He's been in a lot of movies.
Starting point is 02:08:02 There you go. So he knows where the camera's supposed to be. This is some revisionist shit. You're making it sound like he wanted the photo with you. This is fucked up. Yeah, he's like, I don't want this shit to be messed up. He's like, he's my only chance to get to think we're apataka. We all know that this wouldn't be happening if I was in the room.
Starting point is 02:08:18 It just wouldn't be happening. Oh, my God. Matt, we, we, can you address another question that came up earlier? Yes. Would you have invited Denny Trejo to your wedding? Yeah, you know what? Absolutely. We knew it.
Starting point is 02:08:35 He'd been every picture. Oh, man. It would have been like, I mean, it would have been like, I've seen double for Matt's grandpa's. Like, he looked like. It would have been very confusing for some. of the people, some of my friends probably would have thought it was, my grandpa probably. But he would have been cutting up. He would have been enjoying some, some Vaz tacos there.
Starting point is 02:09:00 He would be like, this gives me an idea for my restaurant. He probably would have taken some notes. Wow. Those were good tacos at your wedding. I was invited to his wedding. They were really good. Oh, he was there? Yeah, it must have been nice.
Starting point is 02:09:11 Yeah. Must have been nice. It was. It was. It had a lovely time. What, what Trejo's tacos? What Trejo's restaurant was this one? Where he was at? This was the canteena, right? This is the canteena in Hollywood.
Starting point is 02:09:22 Yeah, yeah, yeah. But, Uncle, can we hear a fork score? Yeah, that's where I was driving. What is your fork score, Matt? You know, I think it was, I think you can get better tacos in Los Angeles. I think you can get better tacos probably within a mile of any Trejo's canteena. But it's got like a itchy vibe. It's people were drinking at 1.30 in the afternoon on Thursday there kind of,
Starting point is 02:09:50 kind of grim. Sounds great. The tacos were good. I got a spicy shrimp taco. Me too. Did you guys go there today? Yeah, we're talking about it. Okay, that makes it.
Starting point is 02:10:03 Okay, this all makes sense. You're like, why are y'all talking to me about this? Now I'm starting to get what's going on here. And I got a Tarnitas taco, which I quite enjoyed. But the fish taco was my favorite. I think, I think perhaps a Mitch is following me. I'll give it three and a half forks and I'm going to answer Mitch's call. Okay, I'll let you go.
Starting point is 02:10:28 Three and a half forks. Congrats on me and Treo, Matt. Thanks so much. I've got to talk to Mitch. Okay. All right. All right. Hey, Mitch, how's it going?
Starting point is 02:10:37 You should be fucking embarrassed. You embarrass your spouse in front of Trejo. It's fucking embarrassing. It's Apodaka. Ask him why he invite me to his way. I'm sick at his cat, man. I didn't know why I left Jason Muz alone. I didn't want to bother
Starting point is 02:10:53 Snoochie Bootsh Okay, I didn't want to do any of that I just Traymo, he came up to me He said hi to me Oh, was he asked Hey, where's Nick and Heather? Where's the get play? This is bullshit.
Starting point is 02:11:06 No, he said you like Get play more than doughboy Anyways, what's your fork score? I said three and a half fours. I thought you maybe change it when you talked to me. Oh yeah, now that I'm talking to Mitch
Starting point is 02:11:20 I think it's five forks. Wow. Five forks. That's crazy. Well, you know, Abadaga, if you gave it three and a half forks, it would take it out of the Golden Play Club. It's up to Nick. It's up to me.
Starting point is 02:11:31 I was going to land at four forks. States were not communicated to me. I didn't know I had this much. There's a lot of pressure. We want it, but you wouldn't, like, here's the thing, Matt. We might not have gotten an honest fork score if you thought that you were the determining factor. Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 02:11:47 You know, I would have juiced it for the crowd. Everybody goes crazy when you juice it. It's true. You got to pan. I would say this to your face, by the way. Why don't you face? Should I FaceTime in real? No, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 02:11:59 You can FaceTime if you want to. I would say, I would say to your face. After you came up and asked me for a picture, of course. Oh, I'm asking you for a picture now? Apodaca, next time you Next time you bump into Trejo, congratulate him on Treos' tacos making the Golden Plate Club, four forks. Wow.
Starting point is 02:12:30 I have such a scoop. I'm going to the trades with this. Everyone's going to go nuts. Wow. I went to the Trane's with this. You guys are finished. What does that mean? We heard trains.
Starting point is 02:12:41 We heard you're going to the trains. We don't know where you're talking. I know you met trades. But you heard trains. Oh, okay. It's a little Hollywood talk. Me, my buddy, Trejo. Wow.
Starting point is 02:12:52 Well, you did it, Apodaca. Wow. This is breaking shoes. It's in the Golden Play Club. Wow. Wow. Wow. Incredible.
Starting point is 02:12:59 All right. Sorry, dude. I'm sure you have a long night of asking celebs for autographs and pictures. I'm watching the pit with my wife. I'll have you know. Wow. All right. I love it.
Starting point is 02:13:08 We were just talking about the pit earlier. Oh, yeah. Is it gory? Is the pit gory? I mostly scream yuck while we're watching it. All right. There's the answer, Omar. That's not for me.
Starting point is 02:13:20 I saw Noah Wiley yesterday in person. Did you get a picture? No. He asked for mouth-to-mouthed. He got more than a picture. He got a, he got his tongue in his throat. Crazy. He brought him.
Starting point is 02:13:38 I guess it's a little worse than asking for a picture, so you're off the hook. Yeah. All right. Thanks, God. I can't have Mitch thinking of me like this. No, we love you, buddy. Thank you for. Thanks, Matt. I'm having two, pales. All right.
Starting point is 02:13:51 Enjoy the pit. We'll talk to you. Yeah, enjoy the pit. Later, guys. Bye-bye. Wow, we did it. We did it. Golden Play Club, welcome.
Starting point is 02:13:59 Danny Trejo, congrats. I love Danny Trejo. He's a lovable guy. Hey, that was our review of Trejo's tacos. It's time for a segment. We've got some mystery crumbs, and Mitch and Lamar have to guess what they are. Oh, my God. Under the watchful eye of...
Starting point is 02:14:14 You have the hat and pipe? Oh, fuck. Hold on. Dear God. Oh, man. Man. No, it's okay. We'll get it started, but we have some crumbs.
Starting point is 02:14:26 Can we leave all this in? Because this is very funny. And a certain guest is going to join. A certain guest is going to join to oversee the proceedings. That's right. It's time for the greatest red detective in the world, Sherlock Crumbs. All right. So Sherlock Crumbs is going to task you with figuring out what each of these are.
Starting point is 02:14:55 We'll start with number one. I'll circulate this. Okay, cool. All right, Sherlock. Thank you. Take a look. Mitch, if you want, because we're a little tight on time, if you want to look at number two. All right, he looks at number one.
Starting point is 02:15:05 I look at number two. I sound like Amelia Marino looking at a number two. Can they taste it? I think you get one taste per. That's kind of like your phone of friend is a taste test. We can smell it, though. You can smell. We have rules?
Starting point is 02:15:23 Yeah. I don't remember the rules. Me neither. They're kind of arbitrary every time we do it. Those look like animal crackers. Oh, that's, yeah, that's, God damn it. The rules are culinary, my dear spoon, man. Jesus.
Starting point is 02:15:38 Well, if you're wondering if it was a bad episode up until this point, it now has become one. Oh, shit. Wait, this is, uh, I'm supposed to be. guess it, right? Yeah, go and dig guess. Hey, he ate one of the crumbs, just so you know. Okay.
Starting point is 02:15:55 No, yeah, you, right? Yeah, yeah. That's his phone a friend. All right, I'm phoning a friend. It tastes like granola, like a granola bar. That's, that is that. I want to, that to me, it looks like animal crackers as well. Yeah. Or maybe it could be like a dunker, I think it's animal crackers.
Starting point is 02:16:13 I'm going to also phone or friend on this one. It might not be animal crack. I think I kind of know what this is. I smell good, though. Are you working together on this or is it a collab or just a competition? You're fucking Sherlock Crumbs. We could ask Sherlock Crumbs. Yeah, bring them back. Sherlock Crump, get your ass back here.
Starting point is 02:16:32 We got a question, Sherlock. They say in solving a mystery, two heads is better than one. Is that a Sherlock Holmes quote? I think so. I just deep cut. That's canon. All right. So I'm going to say this.
Starting point is 02:16:48 Valley granola bar. What do you think of that? I think that's that helps. Hey, you're eating more. Oh, my bad. I'm sorry. I keep thinking we're supposed to eat it. It's okay. Okay. We're going to go animal crackers.
Starting point is 02:16:59 I think it's a part of the fun. Well, like, yeah. I think last time we played this, we had a remote guest, so we removed eating it for fairness. I think that's, it's not animal crackers. It's something else. I feel like it's like it's like a Dunkeroo. It might be like something like that or like a nutter butt, not a nutter but. but those like short bread cookies they have in the little in the parish farm joints.
Starting point is 02:17:24 I still believe in animal crackers, though I do think it could be a dunkeroo. What the fuck does this guy have to say? We'll need your guesses. Oh. Okay. There's another. We want to do that one? Oh, yeah, we're going to do this one.
Starting point is 02:17:35 I did it third one, too? I didn't mess this game up. We can now taste these, right? Yeah. No, you're doing great with this airtight premise. We got some sort of cake going on here, some sort of breakfasty cake. Like a cinnamony roll.
Starting point is 02:17:56 Not a cinnamon roll, but you know what I'm saying? Like a breakfasty. Yeah, like kind of a croissant pastry type vibe. I like that. Sherlock. Oh, make this back. I think this is a, like some kind of thing
Starting point is 02:18:12 that you would get at a gas station, like that pastry type joint. I agree on that. I think it's like a honey bun. Yeah. I'm going to just say honey bun because I can't think. Think of anything. The only thing about, yeah, with that kind of cream, it looks like cupcake cream.
Starting point is 02:18:28 It's a little bit of, but I feel like you're, I feel like it's not a cupcake, though. Yeah. So we're going to go with honey bun. We're going to go with, what do you want to do, Dunkeroo's or Animal Crackers? Dunkeroo's. Dunkeroo's. And then we're going to go with Nature's Valley granola bar. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:18:40 Let's see how we do. Also, there's a, if you don't get it right, Sherlock Crumbs kills you. And who solves that mystery? You know what they say Any chew is better than indefinite hunger Of course a riff on my quote Any truth is better than indefinite doubt No we're nodding because we knew
Starting point is 02:19:02 Plate number three Unfortunately you did not finger the correct suspect Oh Cowboy with Lassow Twinkie the kid Wow it was a Twinkie It was a Twinkie You were very right with the gas station thing, but...
Starting point is 02:19:20 Yeah, I felt it was in that wheelhouse. I knew it. Like, Twinkie just like... Because that cream looks so familiar. The cream. The cream looked. Did look like Twinkie. With plate two, unfortunately, these creatures will not be in cages. They were roam free because you did not
Starting point is 02:19:36 identify animal crackers. We knew it, though. We knew it Sherlock Brums. Piece of shit. Yeah, Sherlock. But plate number one shows that you know my method, Spoon, man, because you nailed it. It is a nature of Valley Granola Bar. Culinary by Deer Spoon, man.
Starting point is 02:19:52 We're not going to get killed, yeah. That would not be good. Hey, Sherlock Crumbs guy say something? Yes. I hate you. Well, the only one I hate is my rival. The evil bread Moriarty. Goodbye.
Starting point is 02:20:07 Bread Moriarty? Where's he at? I think bread Moriarty is on the loose, so he's got to pursue him. Thanks to Sherlock. Sherlock Crumbs for stopping by. One for three, but you got one. on the dot. Pretty, pretty good. Well, my first, I should just trust in my instinct.
Starting point is 02:20:22 Animal Crackers straight out. It's easy to overthink it as you can return into it. Just like a restaurant about your feedback, let's open to the feedback. Today's emails from Andrew for South Florida. Andrew writes, I'm ready to let you know my mom and I love listening to your show. Wow. Wow. While the overwhelming preponderance of cum jokes can occasionally make it a somewhat awkward endeavor, overall has been a very fun thing we can enjoy together.
Starting point is 02:20:41 You're telling me, I just watched a housemaid with my mom and we turned it off. At the sex, that's the sexy and we turned that thing off. A fun thing we can enjoy together, similar to when my father and I watched auto-focus together. Is that true? I'm wondering you guys- My dad watched the industry together, and it would be like, he'd be like, ooh, a lot of sex. I wonder if you guys have any similar experiences watching or listening to your stuff with your family that despite its gratuitous or lewd nature you still have positive associations with. Thanks so much.
Starting point is 02:21:09 Keep on keeping on you. But both just shared some anecdotes. The housemaid with your mom? Yeah. The industry with your dad. I'm trying to think of any incidents. I've had of that. I certainly remember my parents showed me
Starting point is 02:21:23 because Terminator 2 was going to be in theaters and it's an R-rated movie and I was underage and I had never seen Terminator 1 so you got to watch Terminator 1 which is kind of crazy to show a child a movie where a killer robot goes into a police station and executes 12 cops. But like I watch it that he's killing so many people
Starting point is 02:21:43 it's so gory he punches through Bill Paxton's stomach And then there's a scene where Linda Hamilton has sex with you know I can remember the name of the character actor who would Kyle Reese Kyle Reese the character and that was the one time my parents fast forwarded
Starting point is 02:22:03 because like you can watch people get horribly killed but you cannot watch boobs I was watching Marty Supreme and there's a sex scene to start off the movie I was watching with my mom and sister Yeah, they're fucking in that movie. You see Spurn. You see Cumb.
Starting point is 02:22:19 It's a wild sex in an avatar, too. It was crazy. Oh, yeah. Oh, man. Yeah, we know about that one. Yeah. My mom and sister fell asleep because later on, there is a moment where Timmy goes down on somebody. Oh, yeah, sure.
Starting point is 02:22:34 And they were asleep. But I woke him up to watch that scene. I was like, you got to wake. You got, you got to see this part. Big year for Conalingis. It's actually important to his character. Big year for Conalingis and prestige pictures. So Cenders has a big pussy scene too.
Starting point is 02:22:48 Yeah, yeah, yeah. And both good scenes. Thank God they're fictional. Emma, Amelia, either of you haven't. Do you remember time you watched something with your parents? Oh, not my parents, but I saw with my siblings, I think my sister, my brother-in-law, Bruno in theaters. I was a kid.
Starting point is 02:23:09 And there's a scene. It was probably the first time I saw a penis. The penis comes on. screen and goes, Bruno. Like the opening, it's like a talk. Oh, wow. Oh, man. That's a very visceral.
Starting point is 02:23:23 Were you surprised when you encountered a real penis that it didn't talk about it? Yes. I said, what the hell is this? I don't think, I think my parents were really careful about that stuff. And then I was also very careful not to, like, get. The, like, closest thing I can think of is they let my sister and I watch rent when we were kids, but they fast forwarded through, like, the stripper scenes and stuff. Right, right.
Starting point is 02:23:42 But that was more because we wanted to watch it because we knew the music. and they were like, okay, but not these parts. That I feel like is a specifically American, like, you know, taboo of just like, oh, we can't show these kids sex. They can't see nudity. It's also, like, it's part of the story. So, like, you're kind of making the movie more confusing. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:23:58 I never had, I never got, like, my, my mom and, like, they wouldn't want me watching married with children. And, like, they would be, like, married with children and living color were, like, more, like, risque. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And, like, the Simpsons was, like, more, but, like, uh, what it was, like,
Starting point is 02:24:14 of the movie, my dad was usually rewinding that shit, showing it again. I've talked before about how weirdly on Boy Scout trips, they showed us movies like, at the, like,
Starting point is 02:24:27 was we'd go a Boy Scout, and sometimes we'd stay in a cabin, sometimes we'd stay in a cabin, but if we were in a cabin, or if we were, like, in someone's van that had, like, a, you know,
Starting point is 02:24:33 like a TV in it, they'd put a movie on. And I watched the movies, um, uh, Lord of the Flies, uh, which was supposed to be some sort of training exercise,
Starting point is 02:24:44 but the kids all to, the wrong lesson. And then I watched, I watched, um, uh, total recall. And again, another hyperviolent, Paul Verhoven movie, not James Cameron. Uh, and then, um, and then also misery. Which is like, are they showing us the Kathy Bates, she's good, but why are they showing us the Kathy Bates movie Miseryl, with James Kahn, RIP and Rob Reiner, RIP? Directed by Rob Reiner.
Starting point is 02:25:07 Did you get a badge for that? Do you get like a misery badge? Yeah, like misery badge. I watch a R-Aid movies. Don't worry about anything. I saw misery. I did watch a lot of sex in the city with my friends in high school
Starting point is 02:25:17 and my dad always managed to walk in the room right as the sex scenes were happening and he was like, what the fuck is the show is it just sex? And we were like, no, there's other stuff but you just keep walking in the room at just the right time. That's a big anime, watchers nightmare
Starting point is 02:25:30 that seems to always be happening. I had a good excuse when I would actually be watching like porn because I'd be like, if my mom were coming in a room I would just flip to hip-hop videos and I'd be like, oh, it's just rap videos because they're all easy as a bunch of naked women around. Yeah, sure. So that would, it was like
Starting point is 02:25:47 a good cover. That's smart. Yeah, so that always worked out. Smart. Yeah. My friend. Don't fake me think the massaging is hip-hop. My friend was watching a porno when he was a kid and, but he like his parents could hear the TV.
Starting point is 02:26:03 So he put into the input his Nintendo 64 into the audio input and turned on Diddy Kong Racing. So while while the porno was playing and their kids over his house, while the porno was playing,
Starting point is 02:26:18 it was just playing the Diddy Kong racing thing. Like, do-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D. That's slick. Yeah, pretty smart.

Starting point is 02:28:22 Hey today's gonna be a good day then my affirmation I feel sad for no reason or maybe too many I smell good in a mountain top like a new 20 Hey God why you make me feel so much highly sensitive and such I'm drunk then I'm praying for your touch I still got the faith of a muster see. Your rappers ain't got a clue. I made cunder mustard bleed.
Starting point is 02:28:53 America, pay attention. Your boy won't ever fucking leave. My ancestors built this country, Marty Waters and Bibi King. I want to have a daughter one day she could see me sing. I'll make her career by the diamond, so when she sleeps, she blink. I volunteer together when we keep the streets clean.
Starting point is 02:29:11 The flow is so mean. I'm in a dream. I feel like the pandemic slapped me for being hopeful. I always robbed that gunpoint just for being hopeful I woke up the next morning with a smile Lucky to be alive I fight the darkness just so we survive This is string theory mixed with the first half of the Bible
Starting point is 02:29:30 I took my shit out west like my young nigga fibril We tried the old hands but now y'all made it too tribal Hey give it up a prof, he the American-night Instead of all this serious stuff Where are we hit the sack? Oh, I'm a little tuned to live and up the evening That's what I like about you, Chuck. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:29:52 Really know how to throw a place. All a nigga wanted some stock and no job like Tommy. Smoke on the beach and listen to some mock homies. I'm walking through the storm, but I'm chilling quite calmly. Michelin'Inners, Carbonara with the salami. I'm trying so hard not to get caught up in the strike. Man, I pray more time. You see, I pray to my whole fucking life.
Starting point is 02:30:14 Niggas be like chill. How could you be depressed? Bitch, I'm like the Buddha. I ain't happy into this. No pain. left. I'm a Gemini so I spit love and hating the same breath. But I ain't two-faced, but just riddle me this. How we gonna shake hands when I'm raising my fists?
Starting point is 02:30:30 Nigger, I'm tired like a black woman after every election cycle. Sometimes I wanna quit this shit and just work for Geico. Sometimes I wanna die in my sleep like that nigga Michael. Sometimes I wish life didn't always work in a fucking cycle. Wash, rich, repeat, man, they don't want us to speak. How you gonna tell me what I can say and what I can say? This shit has gone on too long like a Kanye West rant This just a rebel love letter I don't really need a stamp
Starting point is 02:30:58 Just blast it in your speakers turn up the fucking ends This is string theory mixed with the first half of the Bible I took my shit out west like my young nigga Fibble We tried to own hands but now y'all made it too tribal Hey give it up for prop Fee the American Idol Feet the American Island American Idol. Give it up for profit.
Starting point is 02:31:27 The American item. Nick said, this song's political and feel free to lean into that if you want. Okay. Well, truth be told, I hardly do politics or religion in the public eye and not from fear being scrutinized. These days, hard to tell apart any of the truth and lies. On one hand, I'm seeing genocide of people asking what side is you on? A rapper who clearly biased in an interview saying it's nuanced.
Starting point is 02:31:49 Now, whether I disagree or not, ain't something I need to speak about. On the contrary, I'm a huge opponent of the fact we all ought to listen more. Is this a war? Is that a war? You ever seen your family smoke crack before? You ever fetch yourself a postage. Two candidates always boasting. Worse than rappers do what they did for you, what they have for you.
Starting point is 02:32:05 It's all contractual. Never really signed up for that. And this rap shit, I ain't touching that. You can do the knowledge with the people who control every industry getting it. All I'm saying, just make sure you pay more attention than interest. Sink. Got my phone off like I don't know who's even listening. May the record show that, in fact, I ain't get on this track and say,
Starting point is 02:32:22 shit then I wow. It's electronic talking battleship from Milton Bradley. So real, it really talks. Battleship armed. Battleship armed. We're talking instant programming, free skill levels, and only Milton Bradley's got on. Carrier hit. Against the computer or opponent.
Starting point is 02:32:46 Your mission, sink the enemy's fleet. Battleship sun. Yeah, now you're talking. Electronic talking battleship and original battleship, only from Milton Bradley.
