The Christmas Tree, Kindergarten, and of course, the Hamburger. These American institutions were in fact first imported by German immigrants. While the US may have begun as a British colony and still maintains a close alliance with the United Kingdom that it calls a special relationship, the land of the Free's largest ethnic population is German American. German settlers first arrived in the New World in the 1680s, an immigration from Deutschland peak between the mid-19th century and the beginning of the Great War. While the northeast corner of the states is descriptively referred to as New England,

Germans favor the center of the country, settling primarily in the Midwest. German immigrants are credited with beginning the American anti-slavery movement, and German Americans were the largest contingent of forces fighting for the Union Army as it battled to smite the slave owner uprising of the traitorous Confederacy. Unfortunately, these contributions were forgotten, and German Americans later grappled with discrimination in the states due to the two World Wars started by their ancestral homeland. After the Second World War, Marine veteran Glenn Bell founded his namesake restaurant Taco Bell in Downey, California.

As the Taco chain expanded, one of Bell's ambitious young lieutenants, John Gallardi, set his sights on following in his boss' footsteps and opening a fast food eatery of his own. In 1961, using a loan from his parents and with approval from Mr. Bell, Gallardi opened a stand right next to the Taco Bell he worked at, but instead of Mexican food, he served a German American import, Hot Dogs. Gallardi's wife suggested a name for the restaurant based off of a German word she'd read in a cookbook, the one that refers not to Frank Ferders, but to a specific breaded, pan-fried veal cutlet dish.

Gallardi adopted the suggestion, telling the Orange County Business Journal, quote, hell it's better than John's Hot Dogs. And though its title and food may have as little to do with authentic German fare as Taco Bell does with authentic Mexican cuisine, this budget-friendly Hot Dog stand with its distinctive A-frame architecture and red, white, and yellow color scheme has endured for decades. Now, with over 350 locations, Gallardi's Taco Bell side project today proudly declared itself the world's largest Hot Dog chain.

This week on Doe Boys, Wiener Schnitzel. Welcome to Doe Boys, the podcast about chain restaurants for a production of FeralAudio.com. I'm Nick Weiger, alongside my co-host, Squintin Tarantino, the Spoon Man, Mike Mitchell. You know what, he's one of my favorites, so I'm fine with that. You like the comparison? That was courtesy of Stan N. If you've got like an insult, if you've got an insult you like me use on Mitch at the top of the show, roastspoonmanatgmail.com is the address. I like that one.

Because I'm proud, I don't care that my eyes are squinty. It's also too, like it's like a lot of times people go after your weight and it's- Yes. Well, you know what? Yes. They didn't this time, you didn't have to bring it up. But I'm saying it's nice to have a different take on an insult. Maybe that's the direction I'll go with the roastspoonmans from now on.

It's November. I think maybe it's time for to get away from weight cracks. I'm going to go, I'm not going to, those are kind of cheap shots. I'll try to have the insults that are a take on some other aspect of you. It's so nice of you. Thank you. You've got plenty of other flaws. We could isolate and ridicule.

You're right. The witching season is over. The spookiest month of the year has ended. The spookiest of months is out of the year. We're actually recording this in October and in your bathroom right now, you've got a spooky spider towel. I have a spider towel up. I saw it and I yelped.

I heard a high-pitched scream coming from the bathroom, but that glows in the dark too, Nick. Whoa, that's awesome. Now, this is before Halloween, but do you think you're going to dress up for Halloween this year, Nick? Probably not. I'm probably going to go see Lakers Pistons at the Staples Center. On Halloween night?

Yeah. Oh, wow. The NBA never stops, baby. I'm going to go see Larry because the Lakers are going to get their asses whooped. By the Pistons? I think they got a shot. I don't know. Pistons are all right.

They're okay. I just, I feel like this Lakers team has a good, look, Jock Doberfest is over. Jock Doberfest is over. We'll leave that sports talk in a rear view minute, rear view mirror, rear, did you just say rear view? I was trying to say rear view like mirror, but then they started to say rear view window and it ended up sending like rear view minion, you got minions on the brains on the brain. You love minion.

I'm going to dress up for Halloween. I think you would. I actually have a grew costume. I've worn before. Oh my fucking God. And actually I do have a minion costume I'm realizing it, but like a mascot. It's not like a mascot size, but it's like a minion body suit. I like you coming into the bedroom in a minion costume and Natalie walking out.

Please. Yeah. We have a fire escape built just for that purpose. Anyways, howdy, how to Spoon Nation. I can't look at my guests anytime we have a great guest in here. I can't look at him when I say this shit. And here's a drop. I just want to say, what's up to Spoon Nation into pieces.

This is my last drop too long, you got to keep them at 30 or under the people submitting our much funnier than you. Well I was embarrassed to say howdy ho and then the drop was all me embarrassing myself in front of our guests here. I like the little Papa Roach last resort in there. You know what? Yeah. What's happened to Papa Roach?

I don't know. They had last resort and they just kind of disappeared. That was there. Yeah. That was their last resort. That was it. You know, I've always thought about Papa Roach is because you and I have been on like improv teams and sketch groups.

I've been in bands. Have you ever been in a band? I know you're a great singer. I've never been in a band. I'm a good singer but I've never been in a band. But there's so much discussion about like a name of a group that's always like a gigantic email thread or like a very long like in person conversation. It's fucking sucks.

You think of all that discussion but like that group had that discussion. They went through all those like they went through that giant email thread and they landed on Papa Roach and everyone was good with it. Yes. Like Papa Roach, we're going with it. That name sucks. I don't like Roach. It's crazy.

It's gross. I had a Papa who I liked but he was the least likable grandpa. He was like the he was the worst of the grandparents. You know how you have the one that's the worst? It just happens. Yeah. He was the worst one. My Papa.

Your Papa was the worst of your grandpa's? Yeah. My Papa was the worst of the grandpa. My grandpa was cool. I mean, you had two grandpas. Yeah. So I guess it's everybody. He was worse of the grandparents.

Okay. Yeah. Oh, the worst of all grandparents. I still loved him. I mean, come on. Right. He liked the dogs. Like the dog track?

He liked the dog track. Okay. He did. He really did. He would meet. He wouldn't met his favorite racers after the races and stuff. I don't know if I've ever like actually met anyone IRL who's into like dog racing that feels like such a thing from like movies.

Yeah. That was yeah. I mean, he was, you know, alive in the early, you know, my other grandpa would be 104 years old today. Oh, happy birthday. To Edward. Edward Dunovan, who is my middle name is Dunovan. He'd be 104.

I mean, he probably, if he was alive and listening to this shit, I'd feel so bad for him. Mitch, I shared this with you, but my, my great, great, great grandfather and yeah. So in Germany. Okay. No, no. Come on. Take it easy. I have an idea.

My great, great grandparents fought in grandfather's fought in World War one on the right side. But no, his name was. What do you think is the right? All right. Take it easy. I'm not pro Kaiser here. His name was Milton Milam from Jack. This is my great, great, great grandfather, my, my mom's dad's great grandfather.

And he was from Jackson County, Missouri. My uncle found his death notice died on 7th November, 1892, sent it to me. Apparently he went to a democratic party rally and was so distressed afterwards. He went and stepped in front of a train. Jesus Christ. Yeah. And they're, they're like the, the, I had the death notice I have 50 voices shouted a warning to him.

He became excited and spraying in front of a slowly moving freight engine. He lived only a few minutes after the accident. It was never conscious to God. It's crazy how this is going to come back around. And this is going to be similar to your death notice. Did you shout out who, who's sending that drop? Yeah. No, I'll do that right now.

Cause we got to get to our guest who, by the way, has a great, he was in, he was in a group that had a great name. Oh, you're right. And, and, and, and I feel like, cause I feel like so many sketch and improv groups have terrible names. Right. He was, he was in a group that had a great, a great name. This is, Hey Mitch, I hope you're doing well.

I look forward to the dough boys every week and I'm so excited to see your show in Seattle in October. I made a drop for you. I think you'll like it. And it's under 30 seconds. Maybe so. Kind of shout out my podcast. I really appreciate it.

It's called gentlemen's over, gentlemen overlords and we review movies and TV shows. Oh, that's fun. Like no other podcast has ever done before. Thanks. That's Robert Persinger. Thanks Robert. That was nice. That was, that was a, that was a good drop.

Hey, from one Robert to another. That's right. Our guest today from transparent human giant, the aforementioned sketch group and children's hospital. His new series, do you want to see a dead body is now on YouTube red? Rob Hubel is here. Hi, Hubel. You guys cover ground so fast.

There's so many. It's really hard to do a podcast when you first get here and the other people are talking you because you have to be real quiet. Right. And, but you guys are saying all these things that I wanted to comment on and now I'm trying to remember, but your middle name is your grandfather's last name. Yes. Me too.

Oh, okay. Yeah. My grandfather was Harry Anderson. My middle name is Anderson. Oh, no. Hey, Harry Anderson is our friend Eva Anderson's dad. That's different. Harry Anderson.

Oh, wow. Yeah. And Eva's a magician. And Eva's a UCB. You probably have met Eva over the years. Yeah. Yeah. I think so.

Anyway, I don't know what I'm trying to do. Just say like, Hey, I have something that goes along with what you were saying. I thought it was interesting. I think, I think, I think it's always a good, I think that's a good move to give the middle. It's a nice tribute. Right. Sort of a little nod at the tip of the cap. Yeah.

Yeah. If you're going to, if you're going to change up names. Yeah. And what else are you talking about? Oh, sketch group names. Yeah. Human Giant was a great man. Human Giant's great.

Yeah. There's a story behind that. Is it based on Michael Clark Duncan, right? Is that correct? Correct. Okay. It was. Yeah.

There is a sketch that we did and let me think how to tell this story without getting to bringing trouble on myself. We shot a sketch where another actor improvised the line, Michael Clark Duncan, the Human Giant. So that person was a friend of ours that we used on the show. And then we asked that person, Hey, that's, that was really funny when we were trying to come up with names for the, for the group, we said, Is it cool with you if we use the name Human Giant?

And this person that was a friend of ours said, Yeah, for sure. Yeah. Go ahead. No worries. The first season of the show and MTV, you know, put it out and then we, we said, you know, they started promoting the show. And then this person who was a friend of ours said, Oh, I'm suing you guys because you stole that name from me.

And it was really crazy. So that person is no longer a friend of ours, which is a real bummer, but because this is also a long time ago. So I said, just this, I don't live on the same coast as this person. But, but anyway, yeah, it was really weird. That's crazy. I feel like I'd have like a clandestine meeting with the person. Right.

And I went and sat down at this place. And the first person, the first thing this guy said was, are you recording this meeting? I was like, Oh, okay, this guy's. Yeah, that's, that's, I feel like you see that sometimes out here when like someone will make a move and you're like, Oh, I think this might be a crazy. Yeah, it was just a weird like shake down for money. And like, obviously we could have called the show anything, but yeah, you know, we were improvising and this person threw out a funny joke and we said, Oh, that's funny.

Can we use that? And they said, yeah. And then like, they tried to get money from us. Nick and I know a guy like that. It didn't happen to us personally, but he's threatened litigation over like, like, hey, you're doing a like a midnight UCB bitch show. And, and this guy is like, hey, hey, man, can you make a rehearsal in this guy?

Like you've, this guy, you cast a guy and I'm telling this story in vague terms because it involves. Isn't it weird? Like, yeah. Now, now I'm all like, I don't want someone's going to. No, it's right. I cut my face. I just don't want my face to get cut.

Hey, none of us want our faces to get cut. Yeah, except with a razor to remove a beard. Is it was that direct? Are we leading into an advertisement? What's happening? No, sadly, that's not. That's what Gillette Blades are just a single Adam thick. Now with 12 Blades, the first one sets you up.

The second one knocks the whisker. I am a big. I'm a big Jill. I am. I, well, I don't. I have a beard. So I don't save that up. And I also felt like that was directed at me.

Do you want me to shave my? No, you look great with a beard. My mom wants me to shave. My mom wants me to shave my beard. You shaved your beard for a movie. You felt very self-conscious about it. Jesus Christ. You don't have to tell people.

Now we're going to get sued by the movie. Wait, tell you, you were starting to tell the. Yes. So, so basically it was there's a, there's like a midnight UCB bit show. Our friend asked another guy we know to do a character in it. And then that guy was like, hey, man, I can't make this rehearsal, but I'm just going to show up and do the show.

And it was kind of a complicated bit. So our friend was like, you know what? I'm just going to cast someone else. Um, but thanks anyway. Just super friendly. The kind of thing is like, yeah, no problem, whatever. This guy then and like threatened legal action on our friend. Like, like was like, I'm going to hire a lawyer and sue you

because I have the right to this character because you cast me. It's like saying, like, if you were like guy for like playing a Guy Fieri character, someone else played a Guy Fieri character. Wow. It's so bizarre. That sounds awesome. He's going to go far in the business because people are going to work with him because he's so cool.

Right. Yeah. Everyone wants to work with that guy. Uh, my beard, I would, I, I did this movie called Other People. Yeah. And Chris Kelly directed. It's a great movie. They, they did a great job.

And, uh, I, I got there. I saw that movie in the theater and, uh, wait, is that the one where, is that, um, Molly Shannon? Yeah. Molly Shannon. Yeah. Dude, I fucking cried. Like me and my wife, like our non-emotional people, like my wife is,

I hope she's not listening to this. My wife is not emotional at all. She's a bit of a robot, but. Hey, Nick is a, Nick is a robot, your robot. That's our relationship, but yeah, that movie was really good. Yeah. Oh yeah. It was, it was, it was, it's very, very sad.

Yeah, but great. It's, it's, it's in, in, in Molly Shannon's great in it. And I got there and my, my, my father passed away from cancer. So I, so it hit close to home and I got there and I had my full beard. And I was shooting love or something. I just maybe just finished shooting love. And they were like, I think I was at the heaviest in my life. And, uh, Harris had just passed away.

I was, I was due. I was in a bad spot. There was a lot going on. And they were like, we shave your beard. And I was like, I pushed back. I did one of those things where I was like, I really, I really don't want to kind of my thing, shave it. I like, I don't want to shave it.

I just, I'm self conscious. Can I meet you halfway and just shave my pubes? So I shaved my pubes. I gave them the bag of my pubes. I said, here they are for what they say, what they say, they said, that's great, but we need more and they were like, we need your face, pubes, we need your face, pubes, they basically were like, they were, they were like, we talked about it, like, do you mind shaving?

And I'm not like, you know, I was like, okay, right? And I was like, sure. And, and I, and I did it and was like shaving my beard and like, no, like seeing, just like seeing my jolly face as my beard was coming off. And I was like, this, especially the first day you do it, right? It's so hard to like see yourself for me as a beard guy who's had a beard forever. And I was just like, oh man, and very self conscious about it. And I basically, I play like a dumb guy that the main character meets like

back home and real stretch for you, you fucking asshole. And I was like, all right, whatever, this was fun. It was a great role and I love doing it. And then it got bought by Netflix and the main picture somehow is me without my beard, just like being like, like smiling like a goof. Like that is the main picture on Netflix. And I was like, I'm in the movie for like, like a minute or whatever. Right. The face of the thumbnail of the fucking movie.

I was like, yeah, I was, I was devastated. By the way, I feel like, you know, for a lot of people, this is going to seem like the the most ridiculous complaint that you're upset that there's a photo of you used as the thumbnail. They don't know how much they don't know how much I hate my guy in his cubicle right now, like getting like whip, like Steve, you fucking type that shit faster. And and Mike's complaining that he had to shave his beard for a movie. Look, I'm still very much a working class actor, Nick.

Right. I haven't made it to the I haven't made it to the big time. Right. I think people sometimes overestimate how much maybe someone has paid for a role like that. And in the indie movie like that, it's not like you're you're going to retire after that. Yeah. No, I don't think anyone makes money. I really don't like people think like, oh my God, you're so it's like no, it's like it's a hustle. It's a it really is. We have friends who are working actors and they're like,

I think I make more money doing podcasts. For sure. Yeah, which is crazy. Yeah, yeah, for sure. Anyways, what I was trying to say was it was really hard. It's incredibly hard. Rob, you're from Virginia originally. That's right. Went to college in South Carolina, Clemson, you were telling us.

You're welcome. Yep. So what is the I mean, I know I don't know necessarily a bend to South Carolina. I don't really know Virginia's food scene, but you're kind of in the South there. I assume some barbecue, but what's the kind of food you grew up with? Well, it's not what you think. I grew up just outside of D.C. So that's northern Virginia. Virginia is like almost like two different states.

Right. Yeah, like there's like, you know, the southern part of Virginia where, you know, bad things happen, and people say racist things. And then and then there's like, you know, up where I lived, it's it's all suburbs. Right. Yeah. But but I think we had a lot of chains. We didn't have the one that we're doing today. I think that might be a West Coast thing.

But I remember, you know, like all the big ones, you know, McDonald's, Burger King, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, all that stuff, Shakies. I remember going to Shakies. Oh, hell, yeah. You've done that before. Yeah, we we covered Shakies fairly recently. Yeah. Yeah. Which we liked. Yeah, that one's fun.

That's that's one that started out here, but but kind of went across the country. And then I think kind of receded a little bit. Shakies, I remember they used to do a thing. I don't know if they still do it where they had a big part of their hook was they had a big window where you would look into the kitchen. And so if you're walking down the street, you could look into the kitchen and watch them throw up the the the pizza guy making the pizza. Like he would be thrown it up in the air.

So they're kind of like putting on a show, right? Sort of like a cold slab situation today, you know, where they, you know, where they're putting on a show, you know, it's like a performance element to it. I don't remember that from Shakies. Do you like the performance? Do you like a do you generally like seeing the the pie getting tossed? Do you like to see the big fan?

Yeah, like the mechanics of it all. I don't I don't think that I love that. I'm sure like at Benihana, they do that, right? Like that's where dinner is the show. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I don't I don't think I go for that. I don't think I can't go for that. No, no. Yeah, I don't know. I feel like just like just bring it out and that'd be fine.

Yeah, I don't really I'd rather just talk to the people that I came with. And and and not to be rude to those people, right? But that's not going to get me in the restaurant. I don't think I think that's more maybe for kids. Like if you have kids like or Wiger kids and kids. And do you love that? You love that when they throw things at you 100 percent. I mean, he likes minions, too.

And yeah, but I also like like I like just like the open kitchen. Like if you're at a restaurant and you can kind of see the goings off. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I like I feel like if I was a worker there, I'd feel self conscious that people were watching me. I feel like I kind of an official, but I do feel like as a customer, I like being able to see stuff being prepared. And have you guys ever worked in restaurants? Have you ever? No, I've never worked in food service.

Have you worked in food service? I have. I worked. You know, I worked at a movie theater, which is the closest to working to food service, just working behind the counter, like in getting food. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And that was kind of close to it when you worked concessions. But no, besides that, no, I worked at a golf course

and like was like a bar back and stuff. But never that kind of counts. Yeah, close. You were a bar bouncer. I was a bouncer at the snake pit on Melrose. Oh, wow. Yeah. And you had to bounce anyone famous. You got to check everyone's ID, like no matter how,

like whatever age they were. And I had to check Bobcat Goldthwaite's ID. Oh, that's cool. Yeah. And he's sober. So I think he was just going to with a friend. So I and I was just like, oh, man, I don't want to. That was the first celebrity ever saw IRL Bobcat. He went to my aunt, Kristen's wedding.

Man, she worked on a show that he was in. And she she came to it. I was very excited. He's like a really nice guy. Yeah, he's super nice. He's a big director. Yeah, yeah. Kristen, you're a you're a you're. Does he talk like that weirdo? Does he talk like that?

No, he actually was just like hi. He was very normal. Also, also niece or you're referring to my nephew. Oh, no, he thought you were right. Oh, boy, um, but uh, but it's not problematic. Don't everything you think is problematic. God damn it. Oh, boy.

Fuck you, Wiger. You know what year we live in, but the. Anyway, so back to the chains where I grew up, I think that we had most of the most of the big ones. I'm trying to think of ones. I don't know. It's all changed now. No, I'm trying to think of one. So Fudruckers. Fudruckers. Oh, hell yeah.

Yep. Uh, one we had. We love Fudruckers. There was some huge buffet place that, um, I remember my dad took us into this big buffet. It must have been kind of like a sizzler, but maybe a little bit fancier. I can't remember, but, um, my dad was very impatient. And so, uh, uh, we walked in, and this is when we were little.

I have two brothers. So we, you know, taking three boys out to eat, we walked in and we sat down and like no one came over to bring us waters or take our order. And it was like a buffet, I think too. And, uh, but it just took too long. And so I remember we got up. You know how weird things stick in your mind? Yeah, we got up and we walked out of this restaurant.

Right. And I think that's the only time in my life I've ever walked out of a restaurant, certainly as a kid. Yeah. You know, but it was like, this is taking too long. And we're leaving. So like we got in the car and I don't know what we did. We went home and I guess we probably didn't eat. Wow, you didn't eat? That's no, we probably ate somewhere. My dad, like when, when you, when we wait too long at a restaurant,

that's when my dad went, he would, he, that's when he would break. I feel like that's like, like, if, if it was like over like an hour, we went to Pizzeria Mota when, when he, like, you know, six or seven years ago or something. And, uh, very nice. Pizzeria, great Pizzeria, but like it was like so, like we were on the waitlist for a long time and new people were coming in and sitting and he like, he had one of those moments like, we gotta get the fuck out of it. Like, and he like wouldn't swear ever.

Yeah. And then also, uh, Vince Vaughn was in there in like the back room with a big party and he came out and almost hit my dad with the door. And my dad was very angry at Vince Vaughn. I didn't like waiting crashes. My dad was very, and that was, that was a big celebrity run in at the time. I remember my dad was like ready to throw down with the fence Vaughn. Yeah. Well, Vince Vaughn is, uh, isn't he missing part of his thumb? I think he is. Yeah. So your dad might have been able to take him. Yeah.

That's a big disadvantage. Yeah. He, I think my dad would have taken advantage of that. Yeah. Yeah. And also it would have been funny if my dad got his ass kicked by Vince Vaughn. It would have been great. That's a pretty good story. Yeah. That would have been a good story. My dad dad got his ass kicked by Vince Vaughn. My dad got stabbed by Vince Vaughn. Why, what's a good hashtag for if you'd like to see food on display? Oh, wait. Are you talking about like food preparation?

Oh, yeah. Like food prep on display. Oh, yeah. Like, like, uh, how about a hashtag open kitchen, open mind? Okay. Or hashtag keep it in the kitchen. How's that? Yeah. If you want to close, you want to be behind closed doors. Yeah. I feel, I'm like Rob, I feel bad for, I feel bad, like, or maybe it's to you who said that. I feel bad for the people who are on display. I do. I feel, I think I feel weird if I look in there. Yeah. But have you ever worked in food service, you will?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not in a chain. Well, no, I delivered pizza. When I was in college, I worked at a place called Sharkies. Do they have that out here? Oh, yeah. They do. They have a Mexican place, Sharkies. Oh, yeah. So this was not that. This might have been. I went to school in South Carolina. I went to Clemson. So this was near there. So there was like a, yeah, I just drove a car and hung out and, you know, ate people's food.

And then, and then I worked in the kitchen in restaurants, but not chain restaurants. I lived in Charleston, South Carolina. And I used to, I worked in some restaurants down there. And like, I remember one time I got hurt pretty bad, actually. I worked in this one restaurant and they were famous for a couple of things, these big buttermilk biscuits that they, that they made. And, and so part of my job was to, you know, keep baking these biscuits all the time and get them out and get them out to people.

And one time I picked up this huge pan of hot biscuits out of the oven. And I just, both sides, you know, I put like an idiot. I just picked it up with like, you know, both arms and it just, the pan just singed my forearm. Oh my gosh, Christ. I'd like these giant burn marks on my arms for a little bit. Jesus. That's insane.

That's brutal. When you get burned, it's, it's, it's the worst I hate, like even just burning. Oh, you don't like, you don't like getting burned? I'm not. I just burned you talking about burns. That hurt. That thing burned that way. Right.

It burns. Stings. It's a burn square. That maybe is what's worse, getting burned literally or figuratively. I think, I think probably the literal burn, but good, but that figurative burn. I guess fire is the worst of the buns. Yeah. But that figurative burn can like just like, cause that literal burn will fade,

but that figurative burn can like linger in your mind for a long time. Yeah. But yeah, there's a lot of common kitchen injuries, you know, like slicing yourself, you know, like, Oh, for sure. I don't know if you've ever, have you ever cut yourself really bad? Those are usually, it's a, I'm not really bad, but I've cut my, I've, I've, I've like chop,

I was chopping stuff and got it and cut myself. And I will never make that mistake again. Vince Vaughn cut off half of his thumb. Wait, that's it. How did that happen? I don't know how it happened. I just, someone told me that someone told, and no offense to Vince Vaughn. I know he's a fan of the podcast.

Yeah. But someone told me to look for that in his movies. And then I started noticing, oh yeah, he is missing half of his thumb. That's crazy. He's missing half in a restaurant. I got it. Right. How does he hitchhike?

You fucking, that's not cool, dude. That is not cool. Do you remember what year it is? He calls an Uber. Okay. Using his index finger. I've never noticed that before, but I'm definitely going to, maybe I'll do a Vince Vaughn rewatch.

I haven't seen swingers in a long time. That's a great movie. Yeah. I think it is. I'm not sure if it holds up. Is it good? I don't know. It's right down in the street here.

Yeah. Yes. Yeah. I know. That's crazy that it is. It's right over here. Yeah. On Vermont Avenue.

Now people know exactly where. Exactly where you are. They already do. We talk about it so much. I think they do know where. You said your actual cross streets before. I think I have. Is there a Hollywood podcast tour?

Cause I would love to start a business. Right. Drive around in a van and I could just point out, this is where Paul Scheer records his podcast. This is where Mike and Nick record there. Like Pete Holmes. Like everybody. There's Mary's house.

Yeah. I would love to see you in a van with like two people. Yeah. Just the sweatiest, palest people. Weigher and I. Where's everybody else's house? So Rob, when I was starting off at UCB, I started off in about 2005 out here.

Yeah. I started taking classes and going to shows a bunch. And yeah, I saw Human Giant. You guys used to come and do test shows. Yeah. Super funny stuff. You'd show stuff to people before. I feel like you,

in my mind were the first people that kind of did that at the theater. Well, yeah, we were really lucky because for that show, you know, we would go out with our director, Jason Wallner and shoot stuff. A great guy. Yeah. And also lives in this neighborhood. We're all going to get ourselves stabbed and killed.

But we would go and shoot a sketch and then, you know, it's hard, you know, when you're doing sketches to know like, oh, does that joke work at all? Is that only funny to us? And so we would just show it in front of a live audience. And it was really the best way to test stuff, you know? Yeah. So we would just kill stuff.

Like, you know, you'd watch it. And then if it didn't go live, I'd be like, no, that joke is gone. Like that one's gone. You know, and then, you know, we would sit in like the back of the theater and, you know, I'm sure it's a little bit biased because people are like, they're already comedy fans.

Right. And they're kind of already on your side, maybe, but still it's better than nothing, you know? For sure. Purely scientific. Especially back then, I feel like a lot of people were just really seeking out that theater because they liked comedy.

Yeah. It was very helpful to us. Mitch, if we got a live audience and like played back an episode of Doe Boys and cut out the parts where people didn't laugh, I think we'd have an episode that's like 25 seconds long. What would they be laughing at? The intro song they like? I'm going to ask you, you're talking about getting sued by people.

Right. This morning, I was trying to catch up on this podcast. Right. So I was searching Doe Boys, The Doe Boys, The Doe Boys. Oh, for sure. And there are other similarly named podcasts. And I wondered if there's a battle turf war going on with other, or do we don't talk about that?

Here's my understanding. The rules are. I'm not aware of another Doe Boys podcast. And at least there wasn't when we established it, but there are certainly like they'll be like, there was a Doe Boys bakery here in LA for a while. Maybe that's shut down. Okay.

There's a Doe Boys. They shut down because of like rats. Yeah. It should be called rat boys. Fucking burn. Burning people today. That Doe Boys restaurant, which I think is maybe now just completely gone. Yeah.

It's just gone to something else. Just got fucking burned. So burned. You know what? You know what I like to eat there? So there's another burn. He like, he like rat shit flavored fucking bread apparently. Michael Chick-Less.

Oh wait. So that's an actual fact. I thought you were making a joke. I thought you were making a reference to the movie that, what's the Avengers movie that he's, I thought he was going to be the fire guy. Right. I was like, no, he was the thing.

He was the thing. Yeah. I literally saw Michael Chick-Less eating rat shit. At the Doe Boys restaurant. Wow. Oh, this is like eight or nine years ago. Are you sure it was Michael Chick-Less? Because there's a lot of guys that look like Michael Chick-Less.

He came over to our table. And he said, hi, I'm Michael Chick-Less. Cause we were wearing like, like I was wearing a Red Sox hat. And he's like, where are you guys from? And I was like Quincy. And he's like a couple of Quincy retards. And I was like, okay. Wow.

Careful. He came in hot. He came in real hot. And then he was very interested in my buddy, Micas, who's from Quincy. And was talking to Micas the whole time. And then like, like, like basically sat down on our table. And like, this is my friend who's out here,

like visiting Hollywood. He was thinking about going to law school out here. And this, you know, like, He's going to go to Hollywood law school. He's going to go to Hollywood law. Please don't steal that movie idea. Please listeners don't steal Hollywood law. And so he like sat down and I was like,

well, like my friends get like a celebrity experience. He's talking to the, you know, we'd like to the shield and so on. And then chick was left and Micas was like, chickless fucking suck. He hated chickless. That's hilarious. Jesus.

He didn't want to, he didn't, and then he didn't choose. He went to Chicago for law school. Oh man. Chickless really turned him out. Chickless fucked up big time. Yeah. That's crazy to have a celebrity meeting like backfire,

like immediately. I feel like this is a persnickety man. I don't know. I don't think chickless sucked. He seemed like a, he seemed like a nice man. He's probably, he probably drove away thinking like, that was really nice of me. Go over to those guys and just shoot the shit

and talk about Boston. Oh, I'm a good guy. Years later, he's listening to this podcast. Micas betrayed me. I broke bread with him. It was that funny thing of he was so, I was like, I'm like trying to do comedy and act and write and stuff.

And so did not care about me at all. Right. Was so much about like the Boston guy who lived in, who still lived in the city that was like trying to make good. Like he was like so into Micas and was like, did not give a shit about me. Yeah. Yeah.

Probably, you probably thought I was going to go out for the thing at this point. Yeah. He was worrying about the competition. This guy doesn't need any prosthetic makeup. But so they, but so there's no other Doe Boys podcast. That's my understanding.

There's a recording artist, the Doe Boys. Maybe that's what it was. And I think they're, the Doe they're talking about is, that's $100 bills. Wait, wait. So to be clear, this podcast is not talking about money,

$100 bills, how to make money. I mean, we haven't gotten to the financial advisor section of the podcast yet, where we'll talk about the NASDAQ. That's what we're going to transform. I thought that's what this was. What do we do on this show?

We're going to talk about, we talk about chain restaurants and food. What? Chain restaurants? Oh boy. I'm not fucking doing that. Oh no. I'm not doing that.

I'm not doing that. I don't eat chain restaurants. You know what? It would be good if you just walked out in the episode, and people would be happy. Yeah. The brief, the smallest episode ever. You think people just listen to this podcast to get through it at this point?

Yeah. I think so. They move it along. Right. Get to the food. I committed to it. Get to it. It's like,

it's like you signed up for like a one year contract at a yoga studio. I'm just like, fuck, I just got to do these classes. It's like Star Wars now. Right. We got to get through all the Star Wars now. We're in it. I'm so behind on Star Wars.

Right. How far behind? I'm on Empire Strikes Back. Wow. I haven't seen, I haven't seen like, I never saw the Jar Jar Binks one. Whatever.

Whoa. It's episode one. Wow. None of the prequels. I know you have a child. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

But even before I kind of lost interest. I mean, I only have, my baby's like a one year old. So. Okay. So I certainly have no excuse, although I do find that I blame a lot of things on having her now.

Right. That's great. I could be like, Oh, I have a baby. Yeah. And you know, why are you late? Oh,

I have a baby. Where's my money? I have a baby. That one probably works pretty well. Yeah. But, but no, I think I just,

I don't know why I kind of checked out, but then I, someone told me that the, the most recent Star Wars are really great. By the way, this is now a different podcast. No, this is very much our podcast.

100% our podcast. This is this, we will get new food for, for in a second here, but I would, I mean, you're not going to do this, but I would love to hear your opinions on the prequels

as someone who watches them now, wouldn't you as someone who hasn't, right? I tell you why I want to see the most recent ones. Someone was telling me that they, or I think I saw in the trailer, Stormtroopers on the beach. And just that visual image,

I don't even know if it's in the movie. It could be a deleted scene, but that got me back on board. Yeah, that's great. Like, yeah, if they're in the, if they're at the beach,

then I'm on board. It's so, it's like Rogue One. Rogue One is fun. I was, I liked it more. I did not love the Force Awakens, which is the newest episode.

Yeah. And who directed that one? That was the J.J. Abrams. Okay. So you personally don't like J.J. Abrams? Oh my God. I'm just going to start wars. It's funny because after,

I feel like maybe I have said bad stuff. You certainly shit-talked his work. But have I ever directly, I probably have directly said it before, but, but now I'm scared. Yeah. But also you're, I mean, we've teased this before,

but your IMDB profile photo is you with J.J. Abrams. Is that true? It is true. Oh my gosh. That's amazing. I was, I was at, I went to SNL.

And does your shirt, are you wearing a shirt that says like, I'm with stupid? He was extremely nice. I was like, hey, do you mind if I take a photo real quick? Yeah.

Someone took the photo. I won't say who took the photo because they told me not to say it. Harrison Ford. Harrison Ford. And, and he was very nice pose for a picture. And everyone gave me shit for not having an IMDB photo.

And I was like, this would be the funniest thing. Cause I, How dare you, how dare you take a picture with him, put it on IMDB and then start this podcast, build the podcast up only to criticize him. Right.

There's probably, there's probably six hours worth of recordings of you shit talking the force awakens. Yes. Wow. Also, I know, but look,

I don't know those movies. So I can't say one way or another, but like, it's not your fault if you don't, if it doesn't click with you, right? That's a biological reaction. Yes.

You can't help whether or not you like, that someone else's movie. Yeah. I think if people are critical, you know, Nick, you're critical of me and it can help me sometimes, you know,

it's not a bad thing. You think it's constructive criticism. It can be constructive criticism. None of us had opinions. Yeah. It would be, you know, really boring.

What a dull world. I agree. Thank you. I am very interested in your opinions on the, okay, I'll watch them and then I'll come back on Dell boys and we'll talk about it. Hell yeah.

For real, we would love that if you, if we did, if we did a double or something, maybe we do one where we eat movie food. That's great. And we talk about your old job. AMC.

I worked at an AMC theater. So we could review AMC food. Wow. Nick, why are you giving that? I love it. I think this is great. You shouldn't talk about that.

No, I didn't know what. There's a lot of looks going back and forth. Nick and I hate each other at this point. To the listener, these guys are in love. Mitch reads a lot into my facial expressions. Well,

it is hard to, because I don't never know when you're doing these, like, Oh, do we not talk about this? Do we not talk about that? But I don't, so I don't know what the rules are.

So blame it on, on me. I don't have a beef with AMC. I don't have a beef with AMC. When you go to watch a movie, you got, you're permanently banned from AMC. I can,

look, I can see as many AMC films as I like. I would just say, Are you talking about the TV channel, AMC? I could watch any, movie theater chain, any TV edit of a,

of a movie on the AMC channel. I can watch. No, I go to AMC theaters. I do think maybe a few too many previews, but I don't have any beef with. Whoa. I don't have any.

It finally comes out. I have no problem. You just dropped it in there. Yeah. They have too many trailers. Maybe they have too many. How can you have too many trailers? Trailers are fun.

What's wrong with you? Trailers are fun, man. I want to get to, I want to get to the minions. I feel like that. I said, I saw girls tripping at AMC and I feel like I was sitting through

25 minutes of previews. What movie did you see there? Girls Trip. Okay. And you thought it was 25 minutes? Too many. Yeah. I thought it was too many previews.

Okay. That's fun. That's a theater experience. I think it's excessive. So when you, like I like trailers, I like trailers. I'm like, oh, this is,

it's interesting to see what's coming out, how that trailer is edited, what they're trying to pitch, what the jokes are that they're willing to give away. Yeah. But you don't like that. No, I love trailers.

I like trailers. I don't want to see too many. Give me like three trailers. Well, how many does AMC show? They show like 10. They show an insane number of trailers. You work for AMC. Yeah.

And you're listening to this. Mike and I would like one of those little AMC black cards that can get us into AMC movies all the time. But please only send two. Yes. Don't send one to Nick. Yes.

Don't send, because he hates you and your trailers. You got burned. No, you got burned. I'm dealing with a burn. You know what else? He doesn't like popcorn. I don't like popcorn. That's for sure.

Oh boy. Why don't you like popcorn? Everyone likes popcorn. I feel like there's just better snacks. By the way, have you seen, we probably shouldn't talk about, there's a store that popped up in our neighborhood. Called like the best snacks you've never heard of.

Have you seen it? Oh, no. Okay. It's a, I don't want to plug it. And maybe I shouldn't even talk about it, but it seems like a weird idea for a store. You go in there and you think like, oh, it's going to be all these really,

really hard to find snacks. Because that's what the sign says. And, you know, and, and it's on a main street near us. I'll tell you. All right. But then you go in there and it's like a starburst. Really?

No, not really. I mean, it's, you know, it's like, it's like conventional candies, but like weird flavors of them or something kind of. Yeah. It's not what you think. It's not like I shouldn't have brought it up. That's so I'm going to start a war with those people.

Well, they should, they should get different. They should get the, the most difficult snacks from around the world. You know what? You would think that they, yeah. When you have the best snacks you've never heard of and you see starburst is like,

well, I've definitely heard of that. You've just the premise of your store is flawed. It's not starburst. By the way, I was trying to be funny, but they didn't have the most obscure snack. It's stuff that you would find it like Trader Joe's. Oh, okay. This podcast is all about defending good big corporations

and going after the little guys. Going after these little guys. Oh, I'm so sorry. Listen, I'm going to take it back. I'm going to come back to the store and I'm going to give it and I'm going to buy a lot of shit. And when we eat movie snacks and watch Star Wars, we'll talk about those too.

Yeah. We'll give it a fair visit. You know what? That would actually be a good podcast. I'll go there and I'll, maybe I'll start a podcast where I get all my snacks from them and then maybe I won't do that. I would say,

I would just say to, I'm too busy to try to help. It just feels like it would be, that podcast might, it might be the shelf life of it. It's going to be, it's going to be tough to keep it going, right? Right.

You had a podcast idea that I heard before the show that I think is one of the best ideas. I won't repeat it in case you ever want to do it, but I think that's a great, I thought that was a great idea. It was a great premise. Well, now we got to, I'm not going to do it.

So we, we can see. You're not going to do it? I don't think so. Would you want it? You can take it if you want to. I mean, we don't want to do anymore. We don't want to do another podcast. Yeah.

I don't want to do another podcast. I have an idea for a podcast called other people's podcasts where I was going to just do a, my impression of, you know, the podcast would be me impersonating several other podcasts, the famous podcast. Yeah.

This one, you know, Sheer's podcast and, you know, all the big ones. But yes, it would just be me like, like trying to salute those podcasts,

but me doing an impression of this podcast. I think that's, I think that is so, I think that's so funny. I don't know that I could actually pull it off. Like, it seems like it would be a lot of research. It seems like there's enough podcasts now that you could,

you could do it. Oh, you've never run out of material. Yeah. But it is kind of a thing of like, you've got to listen to a podcast. You've got to get the beats down of, the structure is,

you got to try to replicate. It's a little bit of work. I don't have that much time. Right. Yeah. Yeah. I would say, you know,

I mean, any sort of podcast is something of a commitment, but that one seems like a pretty particular commitment. But hey, it's up for grabs now. Have you guys had any health problems because of this podcast? Oh, yeah. Is that true?

Yes. So I started going to trainer three days a week. I went to my doctor and I mean, this is probably partially from. By the way, I wasn't looking at you when I said that. Yeah. Yeah.

I was throwing it out to both, both of you. Nick, I mean, I think you've had tummy trouble as you call it or. Yeah, I get the rumbly sometimes, but here's,

here's the issue I have is that I feel like I have to exercise more than I maybe have time for. Like I feel like I really like to compensate for. What do you do? Are you a jogger, a biker? I do a little bit. I do a little bit of everything.

I swim. Okay. I love to go to the ocean. Where do you swim? I go to the, the Santa Monica aquatic center. Oh, lovely,

lovely facility. It's just full of plugs. That's what we're all about. And then I also go for, I will go to a gym and I will do yoga. And then I'll also run sometimes, but that's kind of hard because I have back and knee problems. So,

but now you have to do, you have to do all of this because of the show. I feel like, cause I had like a three week span when I was working a job in Burbank and so I had a very long commute and there were long days and I like couldn't exercise during the week. And I feel like during that span, I gained five to 10 pounds.

And it's not just this podcast. It's also like my eating habits outside of this podcast, but this is a particularly bad part of it because just what we're eating is just so, so heavy and so overwhelming. I think I have a solution, but yeah, but in,

have you had similar, a similar, and do you have to, you said you were going to a trainer. I'm going to a trainer three days a week. And I, like Nick, my,

my diet isn't great. Norm, you know, it is as far as like doing stuff and, and if you're filming stuff, you like, I never will have food if I'm filming something. And, and I went to the doctor and I've gotten better over the,

Nick knows that I've been going to the trainer now forever, but there's some things I got to change. But he was like, at one point he was like, he's like, you have like early signs of fatty liver. You need to like, you need to,

you need to fucking get this in check. And so I'm taking fish oil every day. I'm doing, I'm taking some stuff, milk thistle for my liver and doing a lot of different, I take supplements every day. What if you just, if they just cut out your liver,

I think that's probably the best way to do it. You know, that delicious fatty liver I have now. Yeah. That's, it sounds delicious because you eat your liver. I could probably get big bucks for it. Well,

wouldn't a simple solution and I'm not trying to change the format of the show or anything like that. No, please don't. Yeah, yeah. That would help us out. I mean, I mean, I'm not trying to give you an eating disorder.

Right. Like you could, that may open up a whole other can of worms, but like, couldn't you eat it, but not swallow it? You know, like chew it up and go,

right? Yeah, I get it. I get in and spit into it. But you know, have you ever done a commercial where you're eating something all day and they get you a spit bucket? Yeah,

I was always wondering what those buckets were for. Yeah, I think the issue with that is that it's a good suggestion, but we don't always eat. We don't always get it to go. Like sometimes we'll get it to stay or like, you know, there's restaurants where I feel like we're in like a TGI

Fridays or something like that. I feel like you have to have that dine-in experience and then a spit bucket becomes cumbersome. Yeah, that's the, because we picked the one thing, we were talking about this the other day, like even just if we did a podcast where we reviewed movies,

it would be so much easier. Right. Just the fact that we have to do these weird places makes it just a little bit harder. And like you, like you basically start planning it into your meals. Like this is, this was my lunch for today,

as I'm sure this is your lunch too. No way. I'm eating lunch right after this. We'll take a break. We'll be right back with more Dough Boys. Welcome back to Dough Boys. We're here with Rob Hubel. So this week's chain,

Weiner Schnitzel. It's a big one. It's actually a pretty big one. There's 358 locations started out here in California. But hasn't ever made its way to the East coast. Really. I don't think, Hubel, you weren't familiar with it prior to today.

No. Sorry. I just took a bite. I'll just talk about Weiner Schnitzel, maybe one of Weiner Schnitzel, but yeah, I mean, you know, it seemed like a funny idea or a dumb idea because I didn't know what this restaurant was.

Right. And if the Weiner Schnitzel family is listening to this, no offense, but I had never stopped there because... It's a weird looking place, for sure. I don't know that I'd seen any ads for them. I just wasn't sure what it was, you know? Right. I think it's like, it's a really

knee-sure specific to use the word you used earlier. Yeah. Like fast food place. It's like... Right. It's like a weird little stand. I think that anything that sounds German too, 50% of people are scared of that

because it's like, is this a Nazi situation? Right. Right. So, we actually talked about possibly going to War Scoots, which is a kind of a local L.A. chain. There's a few of them. And so, Weiner Schnitzel is kind of like the not fancy version of that.

It's like a bunch of, you know, like brats and hot dogs and stuff. And are you a big hot dog fan? Are you more of a burger person? How do you feel? Where do you lie? I think I grew up eating a lot of hot dogs. I don't really, I think that's more of like, for me,

I think of that as like a kid food. For sure. Right. Because if you're a little kid, it's delicious and everything. I don't know that I eat a lot of hot dogs anymore. But I will say that what we've eaten today, it tastes delicious. I'm sure it's not great for me.

But I thought it all tasted really good. If Slimer had a choice for his favorite fast food restaurant, Nick. Yes. It's got to be Weiner Schnitzel, right? It's got to be. I mean, because, because this is the thing, there aren't, there aren't that many hot dog. Let's explain the logic, you will.

There aren't, there aren't that many hot. I get this very, this, I think it's pretty obvious. But there aren't that many hot dog theme chains to begin with. Right. Like, I don't honestly, this is the only one I can think of. Is there when you, I didn't look at their whole menu. Yeah. Is their menu mostly hot dog related?

It's hot dog focused. They have, they definitely, I mean, their marketing is based around this, this hot dog called the delicious one. And he's terrified and he runs away because he thinks people are going to eat him. So like, they're, they're very much hot dog focused. That's what they have. Is there, I haven't seen that ad. Is that dog like a little like Dachshund, like a Weiner dog?

No, he's like a hot dog. It's like a scent. He's like an anthropomorphic hot dog. He's got, he's got a bun body, bun and sausage body. And he's got arms and legs. That's how I feel now with my fatty liver. You feel like you're a, you're just a hot dog man. I feel like everyone's going to chase me around and try to get at it.

Oh man. It's a hot commodity. I'm telling you, I would eat it. Sounds delicious. That's like, that's like a kind of thing that it's like a syphilis cure in Hong Kong. Find a Caucasian man's fatty liver. Turn into tea. Cut it out.

So this hot dog runs away from people that are worried to eat him. Right. That he thinks he's going to get eaten, but in the end, he does get eaten. I mean, yeah, that, that's what, that's what our story is. We're eating these hot dogs, but yeah, they have other things on their menu. They've got, they've got sandwiches and, and chicken and, and hot and hamburgers rather and oct and right now it's october fest. Right.

Which actually takes place in germany in september, right? Isn't it the end of september? I don't know. And so in america, of course, we just celebrate in october. Yeah. And we're now celebrating in november. It's a hot guest, isn't it? It's in november.

But so wiener schitzel was. He's explained. Slimer loves hot dogs. Yeah. I figured that. I figured that he's in a hot dog car in new york city. Yeah. When the, when the ghosts are released.

No. Yeah. I remembered it. You know now also he's there. He's there. That's the cartoon. He's their friend and then he's also their friend in ghost busters too. That is true.

He drives a bus in ghost bus too. And there's a girl. There's a girl. Slimer. There's a girl. Yeah. Yeah. You guys don't have to walk me through the ghost busters.

Saga. If there's any more slimer stuff you need to know, please ask. Yeah. I mean, I think I got it. Drives a bus. Works a hot dog cart. Yeah. Loves hot dogs.

Would love wiener schitzel. He would love wiener schitzel. Is there a big focus on this podcast about what slimer would like? Um, I think so. Maybe now. Yes. From here on out. I think yes.

I think slimer. I mean, he likes all sorts of different things, but hot dogs. And you guys know that, um, God, I don't even know how to bring this up. Uh, I guess I'll just say it, but like, you know, that's like, uh, that's not a real, uh, yeah. It's not like a real ghost. What? He just nick and I crying.

The next 30 minutes. Yeah. I mean, that was just in the movie. Made by a computer. Right. Yeah. Onion head. Onion head.

Yeah. Onion head's not real. Onion heads is real name, by the way. More slimer. Yeah. In the script. Wow. If you got any more slimer facts, hashtag, uh, onion head.

Wait. Is winter schnitzel to go back just for a second? Sorry to bring it back to the stupid restaurant, but. How dare you talk about food on her food related podcasts? Is this an expensive restaurant? No, this is, I mean, this is very budget friendly. And this is, this is one, you know, this is a childhood favorite of mine. I remember like just have a lot of memories of going there with my dad

because my dad liked it too. My wife, Natalie grew up out here as well. Loved winter schnitzel. She would like go to she kind of has like an iron stomach and so she would like go to gymnastics and then like afterwards she'd have like chili cheeseburgers and chili cheese fries from there. I remember always getting the chili combo from there, which was one chili cheeseburger, one chili cheese dog and one chili cheese fries.

And that would be like a standard lunch for me when I go. My dad and I would like go to Fedco. What the fuck was wrong with you back then? Did you not have parents? Did you raise yourself? No, I had a mom and dad. I grew up in a loving home. Wow.

But yeah, my nutrition was maybe a little, I mean, it was a little basically whatever I wanted. Yeah. So I was, I was a chubby little kid. But yeah, I remember we go to Fedco, which was like this, this kind of Costco like club store that's no longer exists. And we go shopping there. And then there was a wiener schnitzel right by there.

And I go there and have an insanely heavy meal. And I just love it. And to this day, when I still get to me, it's like great hangover food because it's just like, it's so heavy. And it's so, it's so just sort of like sometimes I just feel like just chili cheese fries specifically will kind of like, like give that sort of comfort when you just sort of feel like shit. Mitch, is Wiener schnitzel a place you've been to before?

That's funny because I don't think of chili as a hangover food. I really do. Like I feel something about it. I feel like it's just so savory and, and just like, I just feel like greasy but not greasy helps my hangover pizza or something. For some reason, Wendy's always. I like it's a great, great, great choice. I agree. That's a great one.

Wait, Nick, what was your question? Have you been to wiener schnitzel before? I have been to wiener schnitzel once. I, but I wasn't too. I'd like it was one of those situations. You were there to rob it, right? You were there to rob it for hot dogs. I want to hot dogs and and I remember getting like a like a. I think there was a special where it was basically like a maybe they still

have it, Nick, but like a what's it called when the hot dogs with the with the one in the breading is all around it. Corn dogs. No, no, no, I'm sorry. Not corn dogs, but a pig in a like a pig in a blank. Yeah, I got a pig. Like they had something where it was like a breaded. A blanket is a good way to go. Yeah, that is that's a great kid.

That's a great kid food. Wait, but are you saying that wiener schnitzel has pigs in blankets? They had some promotion. I think that was like like a because you had something. I don't know if this is the part of the show where we get into it. Let's get into it. But but you had those little corn dog mini corn dogs. Yeah, I mean, we're good.

I will a lot of times just get their corn dogs. They're just straight up corn dog and it's a good corn dog. I think a lot of it they have their Frank. I think is a is either a chicken Frank or a mix of beef, chicken and pork. But I think they also do have an all beef Frank that you can you can sub in for some of them. But the the mini the mini corn dogs. Yeah, I think those are really good bites.

I mean, they're they're great. You just dip them in your sauce of choice. I like to get them in just a little bit of regular mustard. But I don't know. We all had some of those. I thought they were kind of they were crisp and delicious. What do you guys think? Yeah, I would serve that at a party.

Yeah, it's good as well. I could easily see people walking around my mansion, servants, all my servants with silver platters of corn dog bites. No, I think would you invite Slimer? Again, you know, he's not real. But yeah, I would invite him. Sure. I would mail a letter to whoever made the paramount.

Yeah. And ask if Slimer could come to my mansion. But but yeah, I thought that was like almost like the perfect bite size snack. Right. I'm a sucker for that sort of like, what is that? I guess cornbread and hot dog all rolled into one. And pigs and blankets too.

I mean, I love their close relatives. I prefer pigs and a blanket to a corn dog. Now, picking a blanket is really more kind of like a little croissant almost with a hot dog in it. Yeah. Yeah. I think it was like one of the first things I learned to like in home back to like make.

Wait a second. Back up. You ran by the fact that you were in a home back class. Everyone had to take it. Oh, really? Yeah. Was it a Quincy thing? My wife and I fight about this because I'm way older than my wife.

And my wife just like throws stuff around the house like she'll, I mean, I'm exaggerating. I love her to death. You know, she'll like eat something and then like throw it on the floor. And then I'm like, wow. I've often thought like, oh, you should. I wish that you if you would have learned in home back class and to throw the trash where it goes in the garbage can.

Now again, I'm exaggerating. My wife doesn't throw garbage on the ground. Right. But I don't think home back was even a thing. Oh, okay. Yeah. So I'm my wife is also 14 years old. Wow.

Yeah. I'm 35 at the at the time of this recording. Yeah. And and I, I, we had, we had, everyone had to take it in my middle school. There were, we had a home at class. And basically just like in that class you learned how to make pigs and blankets. We were learning how to make pigs. I'm like, you know, like a lot of it was like, oh, like, you know,

catch the pig skin, skin the pig, kiss the pig, kiss the pig. Continue to kiss the pig, bring home the pig, dress it up. But we, we like, we learned how to like turn on the, you know, like that basic stuff of like the sixth grade of like turning on the oven. Yeah. Like the right temperatures and stuff. And then like you would make a great home back teacher. If there's any public schools out there in America that are looking for a good

home back teacher, because if that's what it is, like, hey guys, come over here. I'm going to show you how to turn on the oven. It was in like, I feel like stuff like that, it was, I think it was like very basic stuff. That's helpful. I feel like I felt like it was a helpful class. But how much of that was just like geared towards the Quincy demographic?

Fuck you, you piece of shit. These are people who aren't going to understand very basic life skills. Yeah, we don't understand ovens. Here's how you hold a fork. Wu Tang is going to fucking stun you next time it sees you. He's going to hit me with a stone gold stunner. Stone gold stunner. I'd be honored if he did that.

Yeah. You love Wu Tang. That's who you're making fun of, even though he went to Catholic school. Yeah. See, I'm not making fun of Wu Tang, making fun of you. You're making fun of the public school system. There's not a guy named Wu Tang. Oh, my buddy Adam Wu.

Oh, it's a name. His name is Wu Tang. Yeah. Mitch has a whole... I actually thought you were talking about the rappers from the group Wu Tang clan. I was like, I thought you were friends with them. Like Micas and Wu Tang are one of a Mitch's Quincy crew. He has a whole bunch of friends with various nicknames.

Crazy Quincy crew. Yeah. Yeah. Micas was in, he'd had home back, turned out great. And you get to eat stuff in class. It was great. Yeah. It's a pretty great class, probably.

And pigs and blankets were big. And I do... I wonder how many people tweet at us if you're like, in the battle, what's a good hashtag for that Nick? Corn dog versus pigs and a blanket? Because I think you don't have... We have nothing. If you're like pigs and a blanket, hashtag...

I'm worried that people are going to send us pictures of their dicks and hot dog buns. You think so. Wait, is that what a pigs and a blanket is? We'll make a special hashtag for that one, too. Wait, don't send that to us. Okay. I thought it would just be helpful to categorize the ones. Okay.

So we'll know not to click on that. Yeah. Special pigs and blankets. All right. Yeah. Hashtag special pigs and blankets if you have a picture of a dick and a hot dog bun. But yeah, definitely tweet at us. But definitely tweet at us.

So dumb. And then if you like pigs and a blanket more than corn dogs, hashtag pig freak. And if you like corn dogs more, hashtag corn porn. Wow. Little, yeah. And so in... I noticed some things on Wiener Schnitzel's menu that seemed like departures from their hot dogs. For sure.

Like I'm looking at one right here in front of me and this is called... This was under a category on their menu called like snacks and bites or something like that. Yeah. But this is gooey Cinnabon bites. Yes. So they had to deal with the Cinnabon corporation. Yeah. And said...

I think Cinnabon is selling out... Like I feel like Cinnabon has deals with everybody. They do? I don't know how it works. No, I think that they throw their license around to everybody. Yeah. Anyone who wants it. That's smart probably.

Yeah. So this is a little bowl of Cinnabon bites with some sort of... It looks like cheese. It's not though. It's like some kind of little honey butter or something like that on top of it. Very well congealed at this point. Yeah. How...

Actually, let's go through your food. Yeah. We're on. What did you get? You got the Cinnabon bites, of course. I got the Cinnabon bites, which I think is supposed to be a dessert item. You wouldn't start with that. But my main thing was what's called a Polish sandwich, which is a hot dog split lengthwise

down the middle, laid out on a sandwich, which seems weird. I know it sounds weird right now. They jam a little pickle spear in between there and they put it on rye bread with like some mustard and maybe some mayonnaise. Yeah. Mayonnaise and... Was there cheese? I feel like there was cheese or something on it, but I could be wrong.

There might be some Swiss on there. I can find out too. I ordered it because I thought it was a hilarious thing to make a sandwich out of hot dogs. I felt like... Right. How dare you? I will tell you that I enjoyed it and it was satisfying and good. You and I, we had some overlap.

I too got the Polish sandwich. I thought it was delicious. It was very... You just... I ate my last bite. A good hour or so after the initial delivery. It is stone cold. Yeah, but it was good.

And we had some more overlap. You got a burrito. Yeah. Now, this I ordered because I thought, again, this will be funny. I didn't realize I had to actually eat it. This is a burrito. Oh, that's not looking good at this point. This is a burrito that is filled with chili cheese fries.

So normally, you got your burrito with chicken or beef and then lettuce, tomato and just... No, no, no, no, no, no, no. That's not how they do it at Wienerschnitzel. This is a burrito filled with... The ingredient inside the burrito is french fries. It's specifically like chili cheese fries. Yeah. And Nick, it seems like something around your alley.

I'm surprised you didn't get it because I also got this. Well, I knew it was going... Here's the thing. I had it before and I knew it was going to be... Because you're just adding starch to something that's already starchy. Yeah. So I knew that it was going to be... I knew what I was in for with that.

I knew it's something that I don't really... I'm not really into. But what did you think, Mitch? It was probably my least favorite of everything. It is a little too starchy. Also, I'm not sure how I feel about... I enjoyed a lot of Wienerschnitzel, but I don't know how I feel about their chili. Oh, man.

I'm super into their chili. I know. It seems like you really like it. That's the kind of chili I like because it's just like that. It doesn't really have any beans. It's just kind of that sauce-based chili. It's basically like a... It's just meat.

Yeah. It's just like a meat sauce you're throwing on there. It's kind of thin and it's very... There's a lot of grease and fat you can taste in it. I really, really like it. By the way, the Polish sausage... The Polish sandwich is a spicy Polish sausage and split into place between two slices of warm rye bread, then topped with Swiss cheese, pickle, spear, and this is probably why we

thought there was mayo on there. French is tangy mustard, so it's kind of a... You motherfucker. Right. It's a different sort of mustard. It is kind of like a mayo-y. It feels different from just a straight-up yellow mustard or spicy mustard. Yeah.

And I've also got the menu in front of me. It says, at the end, it says, Slimer's Pick. That's not true. You know what, Rob, I'm looking on my phone. It is true. It's true. No. Oh, shit.

That's incredible. Yeah. That's so... I don't even know what to say. Slimer... He's got a... Slimer's got a lot of picks. No.

It says that basically next to every menu item. Slimer. No. No, Rob. So, Rob. They should just have a giant slimer, inflatable slimer on the outside of the restaurant. It is kind of... The restaurant itself is just kind of a weird hut and it's kind of like an un...

Oh, that's what I wanted to know. What does it look like? Does it look like kind of an A-frame house? It was actually... They originally were. They all look kind of like IHOPs. They all have that A-frame structure and now they have them, but they're still like... The ones that aren't like that are still kind of...

They almost never have an inside seating area. They're just like a little kitchen with an ordering counter and then if there's any... Oh, they want you to sit outside. So, that is like West Coast. Yeah, they want you to sit outside. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, they can't have that on the East Coast. Yeah, for sure.

Our intern, Yu Song, a great, great man. He's our production coordinator now. Oh, yes, he is. He's our intern for some time. Oh, Jesus. I'm sorry. I know he's a production coordinator. Yu Song, I'm sorry.

Oh, man. He is hoppin' mad. Oh, my God. Why are you guys so... Why... I did another... And we don't know each other at all, but you guys seem almost intimidated by your intern.

Again, he's our production coordinator. Okay, sorry. I think what you... But you get my point. Yeah. I think what you made... You were so quick to correct me about that that I'm wondering what the relationship is here.

I just got here a little bit ago. Yes. And I'm wondering if there is... Is this like a hostage situation? Is there... Is he... Does he have some sort of mind control over you guys? I think Nick is a...

Yu Song, what do you want us to say? He's very quiet and he's scowling. Yu Song treats us well. We love him. Yeah, we love Yu Song. He's great. Okay. When he turned over to production coordinator, we got very scared of him.

It was the title change. So he worked his way up from the ladder from intern to production coordinator. From Cornell to intern. So down... So down... Right. I guess down. Yeah.

I mean, you know, I don't know about Cornell. Wow. To production coordinator. Again, I went to Clemson. Okay. Oh, that's right. Sorry. To production coordinator, which is maybe even with Cornell, I feel like a step above...

He's doing great. He's doing great right now. He's going to be out of this job soon. He's going to be on the better things. In this organization. In the Del Boyz organization. He hates this right now, by the way. He's splayed out.

Sorry. Oh, no, no, no, no. But within the Del Boyz corporation, you start off, everybody starts off as an intern. Yeah, Mitch and I start off as interns. And then you work your way up. If you work real hard after years and years, you work your way up to production coordinator. And then after another 10, 20 years, what do you get to? What's the next problem?

You become a Del Boy. Nick and I give you a pin. That's a zero dollar Del Boyz. You go across the bridge and you get clear. You song's parents are in town. His very... By the way, there's no reason not to do an episode with them. It would be great.

We should have. We should have, you song. They gave us gifts. They gave us gifts. They were... They're lovely, lovely people. Their poor son was up at 1030. I'll say this.

When I came in, I thought they kind of iced me out a little bit. I thought they kind of blew me off a little bit. I don't know if you guys caught that. I saw... And then they said, let's get out of here. Yeah. They left very quickly after I got here. Like, oh, we don't like that guy.

I think they stayed... I heard them whisper on the way to the car and they were like, I heard that guy stole the name of a sketch crew. Yeah. Yeah. They didn't even like that. Yu Song's parents are in town. He was up at Wienerschnitzel.

And where were you? Burbank Yu Song? And Burbank at 10... What? 1015? And how much of that... We should have gotten him a mic. How much of that conversation with your parents was,

what are you doing with your life? You can't be running to Wienerschnitzel at 10 a.m. for this podcast. But mom, dad, I'm a production coordinator. His mom is... I think they're both fans of the podcast. His mom calls me the spoon master, I believe, which I love. Oh, are they gonna listen to this? Okay.

I need to be more polite. I was joking. You were very polite to me. You seemed like lovely people. You did not ice me out. There's some truth in comedy, though, and I think they did ice you up. They're very nice people.

Yu Song was up there at 10.30. We ate this at 11 a.m. Yeah, it was very early. I mean, this is the first food. And you were saying also, Rob, that this was the first meal you've eaten today. This is the first food I've eaten. I woke up.

I hadn't eaten or had coffee or anything. The first thing I put in my body was a chili cheese fried burrito. Yeah. It's insanely heavy. How did you like that burrito, by the way? I'm not a doctor, but I don't know that that's good for me. How did I like it?

I think I come down where you guys do. I think it's a little too much bready, starchy, you know, like, you know, chili cheese fries. That's one thing. A burrito is a different thing. I don't know if you have to collide those things. It's not terrible. It's not terrible.

No. A lot of this, too, is probably good driving food. If you drive and you need to have one hand on the wheel, then there's nothing wrong with having a chili cheese fried burrito in your other hand. Well, honestly, that's probably the only way you can eat chili cheese fries while driving. I mean, otherwise it's going to be a total mess.

It's a mess. So maybe they, yeah. So they're ahead of us. They got the motorist in mind. It's not bad. It's definitely not something that you want at 11 a.m. You love the polar sandwich. How did you feel about the Cinnabon bites?

Well, I got to correct you. They're called gooey Cinnabon bites. The gooey Cinnabon bites, I only had two of them. They don't look appetizing. Well, I have a hard time sometimes with really just like sweet bread, like Cinnabon, no offense to the Cinnabon family. You know, you guys do a lot of good work for people. I don't know who these fucking people are.

That could be terrible. It's not really my thing. It's not like that's like just sweet bread, you know. Sweet breads, that is my thing. Oh, wow. What are sweet breads again? Like organ meats? Like organ meats.

Well, you're into that. I actually kind of like them too. Really? Yeah. I'm not big on them. I didn't know what it was. And then I was like, this is delicious. And this one was like, yeah, that's like a pituitary gland

or something like that. Isn't that what it is? Yeah. I've read before that because I think it's just sort of a catch-all term for just like organ meat in general and just sort of, you know, awful. And we're not saying Oregon. No, we're not saying Oregon meat.

No. Like it's kind of awful. I'm not saying awful AWFUL. I'm saying OFFAL. But I've heard that stuff like people like, even though we're not accustomed to eating it as much anymore in western societies, but it's like, if you think of like from an animalistic perspective, if like a lion or lion eats a

caribou, they're going straight for the gut. They're eating the organs first because that's where all the nutrition is. They're getting all those, that fat for that. Well, the lion first would go up through the butthole, right? To get in there, you got to go through the anus. That's the easiest port of entry. Yeah.

That's sort of like, you know, when we think about how much millennials are into ass eating, I mean, it's kind of like we're reconnecting with our primal side. What is going on on this podcast? Now I hope his parents do not. But I think my favorite thing was Nick's mini corn dog bites. Yeah.

Those mini corn dogs were good as hell. And I also got a few other items. What are we using? Awful. OFFAL. All right. Relax, Dr. Dictionary. You fucking burned down on that one.

Hey, you know what? I'll, I'll wear Dr. Dictionary with pride. All right. Good. No one's going to see that movie. So I'll quickly get into what I had. There's some overlap. I had the chili cheese fried burrito.

I knew what your order was, Robin. I then stupidly, but it was the stuff that looked fun. I agree with you. Yeah. Yeah. Chili cheese fries burrito, which I said my thoughts on. I thought it was just okay. The Polish sandwich, which I really enjoyed.

And then I tried Nick. I did try your, uh, your corn dog bites. I tried some of the 1000 Island fries Nick that I had some of that. Yeah. And they were okay. They didn't travel well. Yeah. I think we got that at the wrong temperature.

Yeah. They were there. But I could talk to your production coordinator about that. Yeah. I think he fucked up. You song. Your parents should ground you. Well,

Can that happen when your parents come out to visit you? And this is just for the listener too. Like if your parents come to visit you, can they still ground you? Or can you be like, fuck you? Happens all the time. We're off base. I think it depends on how much financial support they're giving you. Oh, in terms of how much power they have over.

If I catch you masturbating one more time, you're in for the week, she'll say. Right. What Nick? She's going to make you stay home. The thing that you'll masturbate less. She'll make you get out of the house. It's going to make you play 60.

The NFL. Um, so I, and I also had the Polish sandwich, which I liked a lot. Yeah. I got a bratwurst and the bratwurst was really good. It's October fest. They're doing some brats and some whatever. Right. What else?

What else did they do? Some worse. Worse. They're doing a lot of different things. That brat was good. I ate. I ate just a few bites of it. I also got a chili cheese dog.

I did a lot of tasting. Yeah. It was very early. I had terrible Harper and we're eating this at 11 a.m. I had a chili cheese dog and the chili cheese dog was good. I thought I thought with that burrito you the chili is really for. I mean, it's very carbine, but that you just get a lot of the chili taste with the cheese dog.

There was a chili cheese dog. There was a nice mix of a lot of different tastes with it. Um, and yeah, those fries, which I thought were, were just okay and didn't travel well. Yeah. I got the green chili chili cheese dog. So chili's in there twice. Um, green chile chili cheese dogs.

So your chili cheese dog was different than Mike's chili cheese. Yes. Cause mine had green chilies on top of it. I think I feel like you're mispronouncing. I feel like you're pronouncing the country. I'm saying it like that because I'm trying to lean on it to make it sound different. Nick is Rob.

Nick is a Nick is a woke look and he's doctor dictionary. So look, no one's going to see doctor dictionary. No one's going to go see woke doctor. Did anyone have the junkyard dog? I'm looking at pictures on their website. I did not have the junkyard dog. That's the one that has chili cheese fries on it. Right.

Oh, Jesus. That has chile cheese. We are confusing. Again, I was trying to distinguish between the chili, the green chili chili cheese dog is the name of it. I was trying to give some distinguish between those types, the chilies that you eat and chili. Hey, guess what?

You're fucked up. Okay. Fine. I fucked up. They do a funny thing on their menu. I'm looking at it on my phone where if you click on something, then right below it, it says you may also like, and then it's literally just every other thing on the menu.

Right. Obviously you're here at the restaurant. You might also like everything else. Yeah. All of this garbage is the same. I thought that green chili sauce was a nice enhancement and actually had a little bit of heat to it, which a lot of times things at fast food restaurants

don't have actual heat, but I got a little bit of it from that one. You're talking about spiciness. I'm talking spiciness. Yeah, I'm talking about caliente. Okay. Oh, God. And it definitely sort of like had that sense of it.

I got a little bit of spice from it. The Thousand Island chili cheese fries, we got into, I agree that the Thousand Island sauce is like overwhelming. This is clearly their take on the animal fries, which is a secret menu item from in and out burger, where they have these fries with American cheese, their grilled onions, and Thousand Island dressing. There's just so much Thousand Island

that overwhelms the chili and the cheese. I'd rather have, I mean, I just think of the baseline chili cheese fries. I'd rather have those. Many corn dogs we talked about. Excellent. Barbecue, bacon, cheeseburger. So here's an issue I have with the burgers

at Wienerschitzel in general, rather. They have too much bun. The bun to burger ratio is overwhelming. And I feel like the only burger I really like there is the chili cheeseburger, because that chili and cheese actually make it less dry, because it's actually has a little bit of moisture to contrast with all that bun.

Versus this one, the barbecue and bacon. I mean, some good smokiness from it in terms of barbecue flavor. But I just feel like I was just getting bun in there and just like a little bit of burger flavor. So yeah, that one was a little bit of a let down. But I think the rest of the items I thought were pretty good, highlighted by the many corn dogs

and the green chili chili cheese dog. Would you, if you had like a holiday party, a Christmas party, whatever, any kind of party, birthday party, would you serve many corn dog bites? Yeah, I'd probably, you know... Superbowl party. A Superbowl party, I think at my estate, I would get my butler to...

So you have an estate too, you have servants also? Yeah, I have servants. It's weird because Nick's never had a friend over at his house. This is true, so... It's a Wayne Manor sort of estate. It's gonna be a big party for no one, no one with me there. My wife would hopefully show up and then my butler too. We don't watch a big game together.

Do you invite any of your robotic friends over? You think I have friends, I have robot friends? Crow or what are some robot friends you're friendly with? Crow. Bender. Who comes over to your house, Swagger? What robots come over my house in this fake reality you've invented? All right, fine, fuck the fake reality.

By the way, Calliente and Chile, it's more like your Dr. Dictionario. Oh, boy. You guys... Are you ready to leave Robin? No, whatever this feud is between you, it's... We gotta resolve it.

We can't continue like this. Nick wants me to tone down my vocab. Can I ask a question? Yes, please. I'm looking on their menu again. I noticed that they do have hamburgers. They do. So we've been talking almost exclusively about hot dogs,

French fries, chili cheese fries, mini corn dog bites, gooey cinnamon bites. But they have hamburgers. No one here got a hamburger. I did get a hamburger. The barbecue bacon cheeseburger. Oh, did we already talk about that?

Yeah, I was talking about that a second ago. I was talking about how the... I think it's just... Oh, too much bun. It's too much bun, yeah. You know what? I tuned you out because you were... It was so whiny.

It was... Wow. Okay. No, that's my favorite thing you've ever... I was holding... I was looking at their menu, so I think I wasn't paying enough attention to it. Right.

So their burger was okay? Yeah, I mean, I think it's just too bunny. Can you describe it without whining so much? Look, I don't think I'm whining to say that I think it's just... It's excess proportion of bun. I'm right, Mike. No, 100%.

I don't think I sound whiny. I feel like I sound... It's just like that now, suddenly the way you are describing the burger, you just... Yeah. The tone of voice is definitely like complaining... It seems like an S&L character.

It seems like a minion almost. Yeah. I don't know if these minions would complain about this burger. I feel like they just chomp it down. They're pretty indiscriminate about what they're eating. See, now you're not whining anymore. I also saw you looking up the burger. I got to see a full view of it.

I'm giving the review. Yeah. While you were looking... You were doing a good thing. You were doing a good deed. I'm trying to... Yeah, I'm trying to... Help this podcast.

Wow, they have chicken sandwiches. They do have chicken sandwiches. Did we talk about that? Did you whine about it? Did you whine about it? I didn't. Look. Classic ranch chicken schnitzel sandwich.

Oh, they got a whole huge line of chicken sandwiches. Yeah, none of us got a chicken sandwich. I've never actually never gotten chicken from there before. They actually would have been a good thing to test because I've had so much of their menu. But you know what? Here, dogs come first. It is.

Yeah. In most listeners are going to be like, obviously we're here listening to the dogs. Right. I'm surprised on their website that they don't have any pictures of dicks and hot talk buns. I don't know if I were running their social media because now that I click over and we don't have to go into their website,

but to drill down a little bit, there is a section called shop where you can buy wiener schnitzel rats and shirts. And there's some sort of innuendo there. There's a little bit of like, you know, it says like beefy on the shirt. It seems kind of like it could be kind of a dick joke. There's a hat that says, I love wieners. Okay.

That's, you know, right. Let's call that what it is. Then there's some, I actually want this. There's some baby onesies and back on board. Hey, you know what? I think, I think, I think I have a solution. When you tweet us those photos of your dick in a hot dog bun. We'll turn them into.

Yeah. Tag wiener schnitzel as well. That's a great idea. You know what? You don't have to show your dick. Just put the hot dog bun all around it. It's not as graphic, right? By the way, it doesn't have to be your dick.

Sure. Your friend's dick. Yeah. Your dad's dick. Your dad's dick. It could be your dog's dick. My grandpa's birthday. He'd be a hundred four day.

Your grandpa's dick. What better tribute? I think your grandpa would be cool. He would really appreciate this. Let's get to our final thoughts on wiener schnitzel. Sorry guys. If I slowed his down. No, not at all.

Let's do that at the same time. Yours was more whiny though. He's right. Here's how this will work. You guys are terrified of you son. Terrified. I don't understand the relationship. Just as a newbie on the show.

I just don't understand. He just has a future. I don't know the dynamic here. And there just seems like your intern has some sort of information on you. Sorry, your production coordinator is like somehow got you guys. Got you guys over a barrel. I don't know what it is. He probably does have some information.

That's pathetic. I'm sure. I mean, when it's just the three of us, he does make us call him dad. Which is weird. Thank you daddy. I think you saw that when he came in. And we call his dad great granddaddy. Well, none of us had breakfast items.

I'm looking at their menu. Yeah, they have a huge breakfast menu at this point now, which they didn't used to have. But yeah, we'll get to our final thoughts on this. How does this work? I know we always fuck up. We'll go around and we'll sort of give our final our final thoughts of the chain a closing argument, if you will, and then assign it a rating on the order

of zero to five forks. Okay. I get it, but I do have to say yes. I'm a closing arguments. I'm not a lawyer. Right. But if I were, I would go to Hollywood Law. I would.

I would have gone to Hollywood Law. Right. Um, okay. Final thoughts for me. Uh, I would call this a surprise, a pleasant surprise. Okay. I, uh, I want to apologize to the Wienerschnitzel family. Um, uh, I've driven by there certainly several times, but because of the

architecture of the, it seems like more, uh, like I, I don't like to look like I don't know what I'm doing in my life in general. So if I went to Wienerschnitzel, I feel like I would not know what to do. Right. I didn't grow up going there with a really cool dad, like your dad, who obviously, uh, took great care of you. But, uh, but so I, so I, you know, for me, it seems like I would need to go through like a little bit of, uh, of a workshop or like an orientation.

Sure. So that's why I've never stopped there. That said, having it to go brought to me by your strangely intimidating production coordinator. Uh, I enjoyed it. I enjoyed the Polish sandwich. Uh, it's like I said, a hot dog split down the middle on rye bread with a pickle.

It was really good. It's good. Um, the gooey cinnamon bites. I don't know. I think I could do it without that. Maybe what you do is you pour milk on it and you turn it into like a cereal. Oh, there you go. You know, I like that.

Um, the, uh, the mini corn dog bites, that's, uh, that's a real find for me. Yeah. And then, and then if you're like, uh, if you're someone that does a lot of driving, maybe like a Uber driver or a truck driver, I think you could probably find some use for the, uh, for the chili cheese fried burrito, but not really my favorite thing too much bread. It's like bread wrapped around bread. Yep.

I agree. Maybe if you're a pilot or a pilot, my dad is a captain. Oh, wow. My dad is a pilot. Uh, so I'll tell him to get the chili cheese fries burrito. My little brother, my little brother's a pilot too. What, what did they fly? Commercial?

Well, my dad's retired now. Um, my, but he was a commercial pilot. Wow. For the airline. And then my little brother flies for a UPS. Whoa. That's so cool. That's awesome.

Yeah. So he just, uh, gets a lot of pussy flying. I'm totally joking. I'm totally, if his family is listening to his, he's got a wife and children that, you know, my nieces and nephews, uh, you know, we deal. He doesn't. We get what you're saying, but also you winked while you said all that. No, but, uh, but yeah, he would, he would have a lot of use for a chili

cheese fry burrito while flying packages around. Absolutely. For the holidays, for sure. Yeah. You know, cause you got to keep one hand on the steering wheel of the plane. Otherwise it'll veer off to the left or to the right and you, you don't, you won't know where the packages go. Right.

You'll have a castaway situation. That's right. You don't want a castaway situation. It's weird cause that's like, there was a deleted scene in castaway where there's a slimer at the cockpit. Yeah, but, but then he takes his hand off the wheel and then the plane crashes. So I, I'm supposed to give this on a scale of one to four for one to five, five forks.

Guys, that seems really obvious. I feel like you could have said, you could have come up with a different measuring system. Yeah. Again, I'm not trying to like, it's a fair note. I mean, we episode one, we want, we want with the post straight forward thing. Of course. Yeah.

I would say, uh, I would say three forks, three forks. And again, I don't know how, how hardcore you guys are. You guys may be like, no, I think that's, I think that's a fair, very fair rating. I want to hear, I want to hear your assessments. I might go a little higher. Look, I like, I like Wienerschnitzel. I feel like it's unfair because I feel like, Nick, I, sorry, I'm sorry.

I'm like, I gotta, I gotta just stop you. I want to tell you how much I appreciate you not whining when you just, yeah, you just explaining this right now, just talking like a normal man. It's so refreshing to hear. Thank you. I just like the soothing baritone. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. I appreciate that. Nick, Nick, thankfully can't defend himself because it would be very whiny. Yeah. He went out. He got up for a minute. Yeah. I don't know why he, I don't know where he went to.

I hope he knows I'm kidding. You know what? Even if, even though you are kidding, he needed to hear it because he does sound whiny. Really? He doesn't sound whiny. Actually, I was listening to the podcast on the way over here and I was thinking that Nick, you do sound like a radio guy.

Like, have you done, did you do like college radio? I never did radio, but I, I, I will take that as a compliment, I guess. Yeah. I don't know. You should do voiceover stuff. Oh boy. I don't know. Mike.

You know, you seem like a nice guy. Sorry. Keep going with your rating. No, let's go back to him being whiny. Don't. Yeah. Yeah. You're right.

You're right. Thank you, Nick. What are we getting? What are we getting? I don't know why the fuck Nick jumped ahead now. He thought he could sneak out. It's whatever. Well, I'm trying to make it more efficient.

We made fun of you. I know I heard you making fun of me and I couldn't defend myself. Good. Look, I like Wienerschnitzel. I like what it's about. I like the look of it. It does have this. It just has this.

You get this feeling in your head when you look at it that it's not quality. Right. It kind of has like a bad rap because it just kind of looks stupid. They force you to eat outside. Could that be it? I think it's also. Yeah, it could be. I mean, I think it's also just chili-based.

The type of food they have is very like trashy. It's like kind of like, you know, people would maybe consider it low-class. Did you guys pick up the food or the production coordinator at Usong? Production coordinator. So Usong, were there trashy people at the restaurant? Or nice people? Nice people. There was.

Usong said nice people. There was also there was no. I think there was no one there. Yeah. I don't think people go there. Were there two people who just were working there or? And eating. Oh, wow.

There were people eating there. Wait. The employees were eating? No. Oh, there were. There were customers there eating. And were those customers like prostitutes or crackheads? They just seem like normal civilians.

Right. They were good. They were good people. So trashy food eaten by good Americans. I think so. Yeah. So yeah. And I think when Usong got there, they didn't they didn't you say that they were like,

oh boy, we got like a big order coming up. They were kind of scared of our order at 11 o'clock in the morning, which makes sense. I got some heartburn. I'm not going to hold that against this place because we ate it so early. Look, it's a place that Slimer enjoys. It's a place I enjoy. It's just it's a fun place.

I like hot dogs. I feel like hot dogs are the they get the they take the backseat to the burger. Yeah. And a hot dog is it's more American than a burger. It might be. And and and and I like that it gets its chance to shine in the spotlight. It's tough. Is this show about like America?

Well, like, yeah, we're very, very patriotic. It took a weird patriotic turn there. Yeah. I mean, we you may have noticed when you showed up, we were playing the National Anthem. Yeah. And Usong was kneeling. Yeah.

We were very upset. Yeah. I like what we nurse Nitzel stands for. It's fun. It's different. Wait a second. Now we're going way off the rails. What do they stand for?

They they stand for good hot dog fun there. They're in there a nice little strange little German fast food place. It's right. It's it's it's a fun. It's so it's a fun Germans. It couldn't be a more American. Yeah. Fun.

German. German restaurant that slimer loves in America in America German Americans 100% for for all, you know, for all all men, all Americans. So it's time for Germany to apologize for what they did. No, you know what? It's time for America to forgive Germany. Oh, okay. All right.

Wow. Okay. No, I don't mean like that. Wait. No. Edit this out. I'm leaving now. I have to go.

I I I really and I really enjoy Wieners Nitzel. I don't know if it makes it. Is it correctly? Yeah, I think so. Okay. It's with a W. It's not with the V. No, I think it's I think it's Wieners.

I think they say it. Cause like in Raiders of the Lost Ark, they would say like the Nash Nitzel. Right. That's the only movie with Nazis, by the way. We should never forgive the Nazis. Never forgive Nazis. Okay. Cause a second ago it sounded like you had a different.

No. No, never forgive Nazis. Forgive Germany in a way. Forgive those who are just following orders. Oh my just doing what they were told. Anyways, I I don't know if it gets into the Golden Play Club, Nick. It's very close. There's a Golden Plate Club.

There is. There's a lot of terminology that I'm not familiar with. If it gets four forks or above, it's in the Golden Place Club. Five forks is Platinum Play Club. But Nick, I'm going to get it close. Okay. Three and three quarters forks. Wow.

3.75 forks. Three forks. Three times. Three times. Wow. Very good score. I have a very, I have a real soft spot for Wieners Nitzel. Childhood favorite of mine.

I really like the aesthetic. I like the logo a lot. The logo actually designed by Saul Bass. Wait, we didn't even talk about the logo. Oh, great classic logo. The logo is just a W. It's a W and it says Wieners Nitzel. That's nice.

It's got some great line war. So you just like the letter W? Yeah, I like the A. W. Wiger. Oh, of course you like it. No, but it's, I like the, I like the, I like the logo. I like the aesthetic.

I like the, the food. I think it's like, it's great, trashy food. I feel like what, for me, it's kind of in the same category. Not nearly as, as famous as the same category as Taco Bell in terms of this is very trashy unwholesome food that makes me feel great. And I really like it. It sounds like Tommy's too, by the way. It is.

It is a lot like Tommy's. And they're unapologetically so. Unapologetically so. Yeah. They're just like, this is what we do. We know what this is. This is what we do. And it's, you know, you're going to like the way it tastes.

For sure. And I thought it's, I mean, I think it's, I think it's really satisfying in a specific way. I agree with what Mitch was saying about hot dogs earlier. There aren't a lot of hot dog chains. I wish there were more because hot dog is a great American food. I think this is, I think this place is fantastic. I'm going to go a little high because of personal favoritism, but I am going to go with four

and a half for Wienerschnitzel. Wait a second. Yeah. Four and a half. Four and a half forks. Wow. Just shy. Just shy of perfection.

I really like it. Can I ask you a personal question? Yeah. Did you fall in love when, as a child at Wienerschnitzel, like did you take your first like girlfriend there or something like that? I think you fell in love with the mascot. With the giant hot dog. No, that's, I mean, like, yeah, I have some, I have a lot of affection for it, but yeah,

no, I don't, I don't ever recall taking a childhood girlfriend to a Wienerschnitzel. Didn't you crank up in front of a Wienerschnitzel all the time? That was my next question. Just also for a reason, I had to die at Dr. Pepper with my meal. Anyway, that does it for Wienerschnitzel. That does it for Wienerschnitzel. I really don't think I was being whiny. Oh my God.

It's time for regular segments. Now you're sounding whiny. It's time for regular segments. Just sneak it in there at the very end. It's time for regular segment. We have a fast food item that we bought yesterday and we're going to test how it held up after spending a night in the fridge. These are the leftovers.

All right, Hubel, here's how this will work. Probably didn't know that's the theme from the HBO's The Leftovers. Is that true? Yeah. It is true. Just season one. So now you're trying to bust me like that I don't watch the HBO show The Leftovers. We got you.

We got you. I mean, I should have said, yeah, of course. I know that's my favorite show. Right. I should have. I hear it's a great show. I hear it's a great show. We don't watch it.

We don't watch it. I do watch theme songs. You watch Carnival. You know what I've been watching? The Deuce. I like the Deuce. Oh, really? Nick, I want to.

I went to Del Taco. This podcast goes all over the place. We plug like 14 HBO shows on the ramp up to talking about leftovers. Nick loves Del Taco. I went to Del Taco last night. I'm the guy who's in charge of the leftovers. Let's be real. I got us in the bowl and I fucked up.

Well, I didn't fuck up your place. Your precious Del Taco. I ordered three bean and cheese burritos with green sauce. Half pound. Yes. Half pound bean and cheese burritos with green sauce. They gave me two, Nick. A classic Del Taco fuck up.

That's not a class. They don't make fuck up. They fuck up a lot. They don't because I go there a lot. They rarely fuck up. They fuck up. So whiny. They fuck up so much.

I think Mitch is. I think Mitch, you're being whiny now complaining about Del Taco. He's a Del Taco Polish. I mean, I like the place too. Yeah. I don't think they fuck up that often. Maybe you're going to talk. Mitch, if I called you Mike on this podcast, you do.

But I'm so many people are confused with that because I'm because you're Nick and he's Mitch. Yeah. Somehow my brain got. I'm, I'm, I'm, oh, no, no. I mean, go back and delete the parts where I call you Mike. Oh, no. That's why I'm Mike.

I am a Mike Mitchell. Everyone calls me Mitch. Okay. That's that's everyone for like, there's been people for years who have known me and been like, wait, your name is Mike. Okay. Like they won't know that my name is Mike. There are also people who don't know.

I had a panic attack. Who don't know who Mitch is because they're just used to calling you Mike. Yeah. Are you on the run? I am. All right. So I'm sorry. Keep setting this up.

So this is this is a bean and cheese burrito with green sauce. We didn't microwave it because we've never microwaved anything. This should definitely be microwaved. Do I have to eat this? You we would ask you to please take a bite if you wouldn't mind. We don't want you to have to. It's been in the refrigerator overnight. What is it?

Set it up. It's a bean and cheese burrito with green sauce. They're very good. I'll tell you that much. They are very good. It's freezing cold. Mine's very cold. It is.

It is cold. Do I sound whiny? The whining has changed. If you take a bite from the back. Yeah. I think you'll I think you'll get the deal. Why is he staring at me? He's into this shit.

This is what he lives for. Watching people eat during the leftovers. Really trying to intimidate. He's hiding behind his laptop now. And what do we do here? We talk about this. So basically what we're going to say is... Well, first of all, you're refrigerated is a great job.

It's keeping things cold. This is very cold. It's very cold. I feel like this is a tough one because it's it's this. This just freezes up. It's beans. Yeah. It kind of hardens a little bit.

Hardens up a little. It's got some kick to it. It's got a little kick to it. That's the green sauce. The sauce helps it. I mean, look, I'm a huge Del Taco fan. One of my favorite chains right up there. Why don't you marry it?

Hey, you know what? If I didn't already have a wife or if polyamory was socially acceptable, I might. But I... It is socially acceptable. See, transparent season four. Quick little plug for my show. But this is great. I love Del Taco.

Oh, my God. I think this is... I mean, like the night... If I woke up and I had enough for whatever reason and some... Even not heated? In some outlandish scenario where I've left over Del Taco. And I wake up in the morning, like I haven't eaten all the Del Taco I got immediately. And I wake up and I have this in my fridge and I take it out and I eat it cold.

I would be so happy. I think this is fantastic. The green sauce helps it a lot. So, Rob, what we basically do is... Should these be left behind on earth or should they be taken to heaven, which is good? So if it's taken to heaven, that means that you would basically eat it and you would enjoy this as a leftover. Or should it be left behind on earth?

Heaven for me. This is a tough one because I... I shot something with Carrie Coons from the leftovers. Oh, that's cool. Yeah. Just like to plug myself. Oh, I should plug my show. Yes, we're going to plug...

We're going to talk about that one later. Later. So do I do... First of all, I want to drill down on what you said. Yeah. Are you saying like if you woke up and you hadn't eaten anything and you were really hungover, then it would taste good? Or are you saying like if you woke up and you had like an important business meeting

that allowed farting, you would still be... You would love this? I think on any day, this would make me happy. Really? Yeah. Cold. Yeah. I mean, Jesus.

Yeah, cold, absolutely. Cold, absolutely. Because I mean, I like cold leftovers too, though. I know. I get it. I'm into it. I like cold fried chicken. I like cold pizza.

Here's how I feel. I'd be into this. I like cold of like kind of gritty baked beans, not baked beans, but... Re-fried beans. Re-fried beans. And you know, it tastes a little sandy, but spicy with a little bit of sand like we're at the beach. The more I describe it...

This, by the way, this will get Nick the most mad of anything. You can call this whiney. The more I describe it, the more... I do sound whiney. The more... You know what it is? It has a good after taste. Sometimes things in your mouth don't hit you as positive until later and it feels better

after I swallow it. Right. Yeah. I agree. It has a nice lingering effect. Yeah. This is great. Okay.

What do you think, Mitch? I don't know about great. I didn't mean to agree with great. Here's what I think. I wish it was being nice. I think it's okay. Okay. So would you leave it behind or would you take it up to heaven?

Is it like... Is this a world where this would be the only thing in heaven? No. Just now be amongst heaven. Yeah. Amongst the many things up there. No. No.

No. No. Heaven's too good for this. Wow. Leave it behind. Leave it behind. Here's what I say. I would...

If it was a microwave... If we microwave this, I'd bring it up. Okay. I'd bring it up with us. Yeah. I think you're right. I think that just your fridge... You have a great refrigerator.

It's a very powerful refrigerator. Cubic foot freezer? Uh-huh. I plan to take everything out and just put myself in there someday. It's really cold. This is a very cold breakdown. It's a cold... Yeah.

It does a great job. I forget. I don't know what type of appliance it is. What type of appliance is it? But I bet if you could hear... I'm guessing it's a refrigerator. If your microwave does half as good a job as your refrigerator does, this would probably be pretty good.

My microwave actually makes things colder. So... Do you have a microwave or do you just have like a freezer? Oh, yeah. That's a freezer. So you've been taking things out of the fridge and putting them in the... What you thought was the microwave right above that? Uh-huh.

Yeah. No, that's a freezer. Everybody knows that. So you would typically put something in the, quote, microwave for like a few hours, take it out. Yeah. Can't figure out why it was rock hard. Yeah.

Why my soup is rock hard. Where would you store like a frozen pizza? Of my frozen pizzas? Yeah. I keep those in the microwave. Okay. All right. So you think the microwave is the freezer?

You have all sorts of problems here. But yeah, I agree. If you microwave this, again, I'm meeting this. I'm gonna have a heart attack. If you microwaved it, it'd be pretty, pretty, pretty nice. Yeah. I think I would bring it up to heaven. But you know what I'll say, Nick?

I'll be nice. This is just barely a left behind for cold. Yes. The good, the green flavor, the green sauce is good, but it's, Nick, come on. It's a left, it's a, you gotta leave this behind. I get what you're saying, but I do think like what you guys are speaking to is it did hold up well overnight. And the fact that you could microwave it and bring it back to life speaks to that it's,

it's a pretty decent leftover, but I will, I will respect your opinions. All right. What's been, what's been your favorite? Can I, can I ask, do you remember something that you had where it was like an amazing leftover? Like where you're like, Oh, this is even better as a leftover. Do you know what? I can remember one thing because we do this segment like occasionally, but I can remember,

I remember how much better, we don't have the rights to that music, by the way. We're going to hit suit. Oh yeah. We're going to get. Yeah. We've got a lot of litigation pending. We've also got that guy who thinks we stole the name the dough boys from him. So yeah, there's a lot going on, which we probably did.

You song suing us. I remember the Big Mac being a lot better than we thought. Yeah. The Big Mac held up well. Oh, really held up a lot better than we thought. But you know, a lot of times it's shitty. Right. You know what?

Should we start microwaving stuff? We should ask the listeners. No, Nick, you don't like it. I think we just eat him cold. All right. But yeah, we can buy it. We'll figure it out. We'll take it in a case by case basis.

That was the leftovers. Just like a restaurant value feedback. Let's open up the feedback. Today's email comes from Ben S. in Indianapolis. Ben writes, What are some foods that are largely considered kids? Foods that you aren't ashamed to admit you still love today. Me. I love a good PB and J for lunch almost five times a week

and a pudding cup. Wow. We touched on this coincidentally a little bit earlier. A pudding code. Yeah. But Huble, you got any kids food you're still into? Yeah. I like.

Well, just go off that guy's thing. I like a peanut butter and banana sandwich. Oh, hell yeah. I think that's pretty good. My mom used to put like mayonnaise on it or maybe miracle whip or something like that. I've heard of this. I've never had a trashy.

That's crazy. I'm a big mayo fan, but the peanut butter and mayo combo seems suspect. That's crazy. It does until you try it. I should just try it. So I would, I would say that I like that from childhood. Yeah. And I don't often eat that.

I would, I would also imagine that SpaghettiOs. Oh yeah. SpaghettiOs are probably pretty good. Yeah. I've had those as an adult. I mean, particularly when I was really eating on a budget, I would get the SpaghettiOs sometimes or the, the like the ravioli, the Chef Boyardee raviolis.

And that that was a, that was a really good cheap meal I remember enjoying. Yeah. I have a one year old daughter and I'm debating whether or not to start feeding her like garbage food like this. Right. When my wife's not around, you know, just like give her SpaghettiOs and peanut butter and jelly and a pudding cup.

Every so often that's stuff is fun, right? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, your parents took you to Wienerschnitzel. That's true. I had, I had a pretty wretched diet as a kid. I mean, we like, How many, how much do you go like every other day?

Look how good you turned out. Oh boy. You don't want your kid to grow up Wienerschnitzel. Wait a minute. No, but I, yeah, the big, like we had, I had just like every sugary cereal and Pop Tarts. I had just such an unhealthy diet growing up and I'm maybe a little bit more conscious of what,

I were a lot more conscious of what I eat now, but that did come after some weight struggles I had when I was younger. Yeah. But Mitchell, any kids food you like? Well, I got two right off the bat. I like juice boxes. Like I like Capri Sons. Oh yeah.

And I like every sort of juice. I like, I like juice. I like sugary drinks. I like, I like, You're saying, you're not saying J E W S. You're not saying juice. No. Juice.

I'm sorry. Juice. Okay. Juice. But you do like juice also. I love you. I love Jewish folk. I love.

Juice. Not. I don't love OJ who's just released. Yeah. Right. Is anyone tracking that by the way? We're dating the podcast a little bit. But he's going to be our next.

He's going to be on the next episode. Oh man. Oh. Yeah. I haven't. I'm surprised they haven't been like tailing him on CNN or something. Right. Should we,

can we ask listeners if we had OJ on, would they stop listening? Do you think he would be mad? I would. Really? Yeah. Oh, what a guess that would be. Even though,

Listen, the fact that you're talking about this means that everyone in America, he's going to be doing all kinds of stuff. Oh, for sure. I expect him to, maybe it may have happened by the time this is out, but I expect him to get on Twitter, which is going to be crazy.

OJ tweeting. OJ. Wait. You were talking about Jews. Yeah. Oh yeah. I love, I love juice.

I love juice. I love sugary. I like those sugary drinks. Nick, you know this about me. Yes. It's a, You love your liquid calories.

I do. I know. And I don't like that. They're like, calories. I try to stay away from them. And I love, I love fruit snacks.

I also like fruit snacks a lot. Like if they're, if I'm on set or something and there's a, Oh, there's some fruit snacks, some gushers or something. I think those are fun. I'll have those because I like gummy bears or those sort of fruity snacks.

I don't eat them a lot either. What about the, that candy where it's like wax little Coke bottles? Did you ever have that? I was, I was just talking about this with someone the other day. Those are the funny, those are the weirdest.

I think my trainers were talking about that actually, that my trainer and his friends, you have terrible trainers. Hey Mitch, take a break. Have a wax Coke bottle. It's good. It gives you a little sugar in case you're turning white

from diabetic shock like me. I used to like those, those are, those are like the weirdest grossest candies, but I want to stand up for hot dogs cause I love, I love hot dogs. Yeah. And I,

you're acting like hot, hot dogs got a bad rap somewhere or people talk to a bunch of shit about hot dogs. Cause earlier you were like, Oh kind of, it is kind of like a kid's food or whatever. It kind of gets that. Okay. Yeah.

It gets that rap. But man, being at a baseball game, having a hot dog, what a world. It's great. I think anywhere. Yeah.

I'll take a hot dog any, anytime you'll give me one. Yeah. Hot dogs are great. I mean, like just in terms of kids food for me, peanut butter sandwiches were mentioned. That's a big thing.

I still eat a lot of peanut butter sandwiches. I love a PB&J myself. Do ghosts like hot dogs? I mean, it depends on the, it's quite a, quite a hot dog fanatic. His name is,

his name is Slimer. Who? He made him from the Ghostbusters franchise. I got to go back and watch this movie. I think he's also a real guy. I think that's my, my understanding is he's real. Yeah.

Who is he the ghost? Oh, yeah. Well, a lot of people on the pot, there was a insult that said I was the pre ghost Slimer. And then we, and then we found out that they said that to Gabriel.

Right. So some, some big, but you know, I was probably more Gabriel than that. It was a New York guy. It was a big, some big guy at some point.

Yeah. With no, no legs. Legs. Yeah, I don't know. But yeah, the peanut butter sandwiches.

I really, really like another kid food of mine that I really like. Can I also say that I hope that we get the dick in a hot dog. But I hope we get one from Slimer. Like a green dick, a gooey green dick that you can see through. You can see little sperm swim up. Jesus Christ.

What? You could. If it was a ghost dick, you could see ink. You could. Come on. Would the sperms be ghosts? I think they would be.

I think they would. They'd be wearing sheets. Anyway, hi you songs parents. Other kids food I like individual string cheeses, big string cheese. I don't know that the guy that wrote in wanted like a fucking laundry list from Dr. Dictionary.

I've said two, I've said literally two things. All right, Dr. Dictionary. The other thing I would say is a is a craft mac and cheese specifically that box and cheese is so, so good. That's satisfying.

I attacked college and still it's great. What about ramen? Like the little ramen? I do. Did you have the packets of? Yeah. The Marachan ramen. I definitely or the top ramen.

I definitely, for me, I think of the ramen more as like a college food versus like a thing. But I mean, some people I'm sure had them as kids. It just, just it wasn't the case for me.

But yeah, I will still like a ramen, depending on the circumstances. Okay. If you have a question or comment about the world of chain restaurants, you can email us at dobuyspodcast at gmail.com. To get the dobuys double or weekly bonus episodes,

Well, yeah, a long time ago, I shot these bits for Funny or Die where we took famous people. I took a famous person out to see a dead body that I had found. And I wanted to show it to them.

And so it was kind of a crazy idea. And we got people to do it. Way back then, like Ben Stiller did one and Deepak Chopra did one. And so a bunch of funny people. So anyway, about like five or six years later, we just decided to make it into a TV show.

And YouTube red, which is a new thing, you know, they're starting to make their own TV shows. Right. They basically let us do whatever we wanted. So I got to go and get like all of our comedy buddies to come on

and do an episode. And yeah, so we shot with like Adam Scott and Terry Cruz and John Cho and Rob Cordray and Matt Walsh and Judy Greer, Michaela Watkins, I mean, Adam Pally,

you know, all of our comedy world friends. And every episode is just a different, really fucking dumb adventure where it's, you know, it's all scripted. It's not a reality show, but we just get into a really dumb adventure going to see a dead body.

Right. Different dead bodies every week. And no one ever asked me in the show, you know, never says like, whoa, whoa, whoa, like how do you know where this dead body is? Are you involved?

Yeah. That never comes up. Never comes up. So it's just about the dumb adventure, me hanging out like with that person. Right. And yeah, the cool thing about the YouTube situation was they just like,

you know, we swear and show, you know, dicks and hot dog boners. We literally could do whatever we wanted. So it was super fun. That's awesome. That's awesome.

And I remember watching some of the dead body back in the day and they are super, super funny. You know, Mitch is a, Mitch is an actor. Rob, do you think someday you would cast him as a corpse? Hold on just a second.

I'm just getting a phone call. Hello? Yeah. Slimer? What's up, Slimer? Slimer, does it again?

Yeah. We actually had, it was funny because we were, Jeffrey Tambor was going to do one. And then we couldn't work it out with the schedule, but he called me at one point and he, and we were talking and he was like, no, Rob,

I do have to ask like, where, where do you get these dead bodies? Yeah. Do you go to the morgue? And I was like, Oh no, Jeffrey, like these aren't real,

legally, legally we couldn't get actual, that's so funny. So we do use actors that, you know, just people that you wouldn't recognize and, and then some like CSI type, you know,

bloated really graphic, decaying, decomposing bodies and stuff. If I shave my beard, I'll be perfect. That'd be great. But yeah, so it's super,

super dumb, but right in my wheelhouse of like, I just love doing like, kind of like, like just unapologetically, unapologetically like dumb comedy, you know, that's awesome.

Yeah. That's all we know as well. It's right. Well, we do, we do apologize a lot. Yeah. Sorry.

Sorry, you son. And ours is just dumb in the way that it's not smart dumb. It's just, bad, just idiotic. But yeah, check that out. It's on YouTube red right now.

And thanks so much for being here, Rob. Yeah. I really enjoyed it. I really appreciate it. I want to apologize to you songs, parents. I'm sure you're great people. I hope you're not offended when Mike was talking about dicks

and sperm. And yeah, let's, let's go work out. Yeah. Let's do it. Let's go. I'm going to the trainer five.

Hey, how about that? I'm not going to do that. They'll do it for this episode of Dough Boys. Until next time for the Spoon Man, Mike Mitchell, I'm Nick Weiger. Happy eating. See ya.
