Have a player that all the ghosties need to be rooting for. Okay. If they're still in this, we're all rooting for me. You know why? Because his name is Chindle Weaver. Chindle Weaver Chindle Weaver! Go beavers, chindle weaver!

How do you spell chindle? Just like Rindle, but with a chuh. Sure enough, yeah, you just type in chinned and it's like, do you mean chendil? I know where you're going with this one, pal. Wow, he looks exactly like Rindal. It's a spitting image. It's like, yeah, like an Amish boy from East Ohio. Yeah, this is him.

Yeah. Hi, I'm Rindle. This is my brother, Chin. We raised Barnes. And this is Wendell and... I know a Wendell in high school. Quindle. He looked like him to Quindle.

There's a lot of good Rindle. I love reading books on my Quindle. Amazon Quindle. So, go Beaver. The Google, you know, people also ask, what happened to Chindle Weaver? What's going on with that guy? Oh, whatever happened to living legend Chindle Weaver.

Is that guy? And this says, Weaver's been out of actions. January 7th due to hip injury. No, he's back. But, yeah, that's an old article. Yeah, he's fine, yeah. I'm a boo-weaver. Then I saw her face.

I'm a be weaver. And I'm a beweaver. Uh-oh. Ooh, I think this tight beat means that it's going down with some random thoughts in white. Me too. Midwest best friends eating fast food on repeat. So come along.

Let's have some fun and go ahead. Get on your feet because this is a ghost from his podcast. Yeah, that's good. That's good. You got, oh, you got one? It's okay. Timons was good. Yeah, this was really good.

Did you hear diamonds? Yeah, it's really good. He said, I'm a beweaver. Wow. Okay, I'm just now looking at this graphic. You're trying to do it still. Okay. Beweaver.

What's that journey song? Don't stop be weaving. Don't stop be weaving. I really want a Chindle song. What were you going to say? Oh, I just looked at this image that you sent. It looks awesome. Yeah?

That's great. It's a great image. Took me long enough. Really good. Yeah, we got... Well, okay. Good images coming up, guys. Yeah.

Fun times. This is Chindel talk. Yeah. How's everybody else doing? I contributed, guys. You guys got to pull your weight here. There has to be a pun with Chindle, dude. Oh, you know, yeah.

Music's not played yet, Brad. It hasn't? No, no. Something about like a handle, but a chendel. or, um, I think, I think it's

off word to rhyme with. There was a guy named Grindl, I think is his name. Is that right? Timon, you're, you're a bail wolf guy.

Yeah. The bad, uh, always have been, a creature in bail wolf, I believe is grindle. So you, dude,

what's a spindle? Is that a Jewish thing? Uh, I think with, that's a dradle. Dang it. Spindle is a, spindle is a,

like a top, turning top, like a, or like a railing. Yeah, that's right. That's right time. Like a banister?

Giving you a lot, Jake. Yeah, come on, buddy. This is fun. Spindle. I'm off my game. Trindle. Trindle bed. Quit.

Rindle bed? Yeah! I knew something hilarious was in there. We did it. Boeever was awesome. We could just cut everything and I said out. No, no, no, no.

I'm a beaver. They didn't get better than that. Don't stop believing. Don't stop believing. Basket. Underwater basket, boevin. Weaving.

I'll be better. Weevils. Oh, yeah. Window weevils. Chindle. Anyway, it's right now, it's pretty popular to talk about Chendell Weaver, but I think the chendell died down soon. The Trendel? Trenzell.

What's chending? Yeah. Are we chending? That's good. We can get there. I think we need to do this longer. All right. No, no, no.

I think this is not even halfway. done. Yeah. Oh, it got to the good part of the song, the crescendo. Yeah, I like it. I like it. Yeah. Yeah. What else you got? Oh, dude, that guy, I love that guy. I'll, who, who, what workout videos do you watch? Uh, just anything. Jamie. You watch Jamie, dude. Is he the one that's chiseled or is his chindle? Dull chin. Like a chindle.

Oh, he's got a butt chind. Mm-hmm. Chindle. Tom Brady has a prominent chindle. Let's see. This is good. Chindle. She's going to text.

Hey, Jake, it's Anna with Kansas contractors. We're working on some landscaping in the Shawnee area. I see if they do concrete? No. You guys do Saturday concrete? Oh, my gosh. I had a guy come over today to actually, we talked about last week, how Zach kicked in my door. Yeah.

I was like, I was getting a new door. It's not that big of a deal. Turns out, kind of expensive and kind of hard to find, like on Facebook Marketplace, the right size. Oh, really? So I just had this guy come and replace the glass on it today. Ukrainian guy. Serge. Look, S-E-R-G-G-G.

Okay. That's cool. He comes in, and I'm like, you know, is this a bad thing to ask where are you from? when you can tell they have an accent. I like it. I think it's a nice, fun thing. Yeah. I want to know about them.

Yeah. Is that what you say? Is that your default? Like, where are you from? And you're trying to imply, like, country of origin. Rather than... I think I try to dance around a little bit.

You walk or you swim? Yeah, what ship... Yeah, yeah. Where's the origin port? Playing? I think I would say, like, like a clearly Hispanic guy. I talked to a guy recently.

I played pickle with. And I think it's in the, it's how you're not saying, what is your ethnicity? I think that's how I'm doing. You're too worried about it. I think depending on who it is, I feel like most of the time it's like very clear that they. What kind are you? Yeah. Sometimes they say, are you Mexican?

And they, no, I'm Guatemalan. Great. Got your answer. Bueno, either way. Great, dude. No maimorta, dude. That means I don't care. I have noticed.

I went to this place. A new place that I love, you guys are going to love, maybe. Tyman's going to love more than Jake. It's this place, 75th and Neiman. Okay. It used to be a big lot. So that tells you what kind of spot this is. Is it a retail rebel storefront?

It is, basically. It's like this, it's this Chinese people. Pretty sure. I don't know how to identify Chinese. I'll be honest. Where are you from? I'm not very good at Chinese versus fill in the blank. Korean.

But they're almost always Chinese. Really? You're just playing the odds? Exactly. 100% I am. Aren't you? Yeah, you just know nothing about, like, what they look like.

You just truly play the odds. All right. They're just a white person. Chinese? Chinese, though? Indian? Really? Not one of those two.

I mean, I'd say it. All right. You're from Europe or North America, at least, right? I, no, there's this Chinese place. They've got to be Chinese. I always feel stupid when I say, like, Where are you from? And they say China. I'm like, of course you are. I think I'm not getting a lot of China back. In America, I don't know if it's like overwhelming

Chinese Americans. Yeah, where have I been seeing a lot of Chinese people lately? I don't know. But this place is run by, I guess I've been to a few places like this. They're run by Chinese people that seem like they're like somehow getting wholesale like Amazon returns or something. But this place is a massive store. It feels like, it feels like a very, very small slice of actual China in this store. Like I thought to myself, I thought, I thought, I'd thought to myself, I bet if I texted Isaac this picture, he'd be like, that's kind of what Chinese is, bro. I say, what's it smell like?

It doesn't smell bad. It smells like Big Lots. Smells like America. Yeah. But, uh, I mean, I'm talking thousands of chairs in there. Hundreds of like tables. That have been returned. Some of them are a little bit, yeah, rough.

Like a little bit like, oh, there's a little nick on this one or like, yeah, for whatever reason. But I'm talking, they have headphones. They got lights. They got, they got all sorts of stuff. Rugs. You name it. And they just, they're Amazon.

they have it all basically and they're all put together already retail rubble and so yeah I went there the other day and bought something but I noticed myself and I do this with to be honest every person that's not white that I talk to I assimilate myself a little bit to how they talk I've noticed that have you yeah dang it dude it's your way of connecting I think so like I'm not like in a in a yeah not in an intentional way but like hey what up yeah well who has I talked to talking to like a Middle Eastern guy that's what I'll say I'm talking to like a Middle Eastern guy That's what I'll say. I was.

There was a retail rebel worker the other day that was like an older black lady. And I'm not saying that like was like offensive, but I think I just talk a little bit different. I don't know. But I definitely noticed it with this Chinese woman. I was like, I think I even said like. Looking for a table. Where is he? Have you seen him?

I was like, you have string lights? You have string lights here? It's never too early to plan your summer story in Europe with WestJet from rolling countryside to cobblestone streets. begin your next chapter. Book your seat at westjet.com or call your travel agent. WestJet, where your story takes off. The lights on the string. Lights on string,

you have string lights? You have string lights here? Yeah, where they go. We know see them. Where they go. How much money? How much money you take? I didn't get crazy with it.

But I did. I was like, I was like, you have string lights here? I look, but I can't find string lights. It's fucking louder. Yeah, it is a little bit like I want to make sure I enunciate a little differently. Do I have to pay full price? I felt too Asian. It just sounds like you're talking when you have a headphones in.

I have to pay full price. I don't know. Yeah. I think that can happen on like mission trips. Like you spend all day with not only are they kids, but they don't speak the same language as you. And then you go back. to your place and it's hard not to talk like with your hands like

mmm oh this is really good and like you're talking to like your best friend what are we going to have for dinner i don't know i don't know what we will have are we going to have dessert after this i'm hungry i'd like to put this food above my chindle oh he's back call back You know, this black woman the other day. I was just like, I think I just, oh, it's all good. You know, something like that.

Oh, no problem. Yeah. It's all good, sweet hot. That's right. That's right. That's right. That's right. That's right.

I don't know if I would say that as quickly. It's not necessarily race. It's more about just how they're talking, I guess. Yeah. So like, if you're talking to like a black guy, like would you say the N-word? To a black guy? Yeah. If they say it first.

If they break the seal. Yeah. That's how it works. That's what they always say. If you're at the Ovalon. talking about how they should lease it out. I remember once in a while. I see clips of him and Drewski.

Like that episode with Drusky, and he says some pretty funny things and Drusky laughs hard at him. Yeah, he's like, you should be able to rent it out for the right price. He's like an Oscar speech.

Like, yeah, you could say it. It's going to cost you. Oh, my goodness. But everyone knows that you paid for it. That's pretty funny. No,

for the record, no, I would not say that. You just say little subtle things. It was a joke. This is a comedy podcast. Yeah, honey. I know.

I say yes, ma'am. I'm a big yes ma'am, especially to older black women. I don't think I would say, I didn't say yes, ma'am to the Chinese woman, though. Sorry to say. Yeah. Yes, ma'am. Oh, yes, ma'am. I don't know.

I guess I respect black people more than Asians. I'm pretty good with yes, ma'am across the board. Unless I think it's typically at a coffee shop. We've got a beanie on the head. head and we've got a really androgynous look to this person. You're not sure? Like having male and female qualities. Okay.

And then I get nervous and I say, I just, I, I, nothing gender. I just don't want to mess up. Do you do then is your second alternative? Yeah. You know, Rupertree? Yeah, car. No, I do. That's right.

All right. It'll be over with the county. Yeah, cut. Yeah. I, I, cut. Hi. I had a friend I had a friend in college

I had a friend in college that were joking to like hit on our friends hit on girls and he'd always like S sup ma Ma? Yeah he was big

He was a big ma Hey ma What's up ma I like Ma Yeah It's kind of wholesome Yeah hey ma So

Yeahka Yeah ma Yeah ma Anyway I like that But yeah I just I think I do it with

The Mexicans I work with And some In some form of fashion I don't know I can't remind myself how it sounds exactly, but I know that I'm talking a little different to them. But they probably do the same thing to me. I don't know.

I think they white it up around you? But yeah, the Ukrainian guys did not speak good English, is all I'm trying to say. Okay. Right away, I was like, where are you from? And he's like, Ukraine, I was like, oh, very, I was like, how long you've been here? He's like, two years. I was like, wow, so you guys, you got out right, you know, good timing. Or, you know, I said something like that.

And he goes, I don't speak English very well. I was like, all right. No small talk. Small job. Super easy. One door. Yeah, I did. Ukraine, do it.

I think I did start, like, kind of talking a little bit Eastern European. Like, should be easy, right? No problem for a man like you. Pretty easy. I thought a little bit cheaper. Quick job, right? I don't think hard. No hard?

I have somebody kicking door. Zakia's kick door. Sir he. My dad will do. Siri just talked to me. I think it's pretty subconscious, but like with, we have some Middle Eastern friends who like came at like refugees in the area. You get it. Subconsciously, it's not as much like imitating an accent, but I think in an attempt to simplify what he's saying, he'll make it more complicated.

Like he'll be, it's like, what's an example? Like, like, how are, how's it going at your job or like you're, where you're employed, your place of employment? It's like, well, job, they would. they're going to joke they're more likely to know job they know job they know work they definitely know work and job like but it's funny it's like I don't think it's intentional but it's like it kind will be harder to understand because he's trying to make it easier understand that's one thing I find myself I mean not all the time in situations where I want to do it for other people it's like I know I feel like I've been feeling what words they probably do and don't know and you're not you're not

making it easy on them I don't know when I've been in that scenario but you find yourself being like yeah I wish I could talk for you yeah they don't know nuance and they literally don't know the word nuance, so stop saying it to them. It's like, were you saying on correct opinions or something like, an electrician shouldn't be telling you like all the electrician words? Yeah, the GIFI is about 1045. You're like, dude, I hired you because I don't know electricity. Don't talk to me that way. Yep. Even if they say the right words that you know, it's like, I don't understand what that means. I know amp and Volt, but on the same circuit. It's like, okay. Oh, that's actually cheaper. We can just get a little more space in the breaker and I can go,

I can go home Depot right. We just pigtail right there on that search. I know those words, but Is your double helix? Have you checked? I don't know I hired you. What about this one when they just go, hey, hey, come look at this real quick. I mean, look at that.

Do you remember, did y'all put this in or was this here when you got here? Oh, geez, yeah, I don't know. Which part, yes. That's what I say all the time. Oh, man. I don't know. Oh, man.

Wow, I don't know. Oh, gosh. I don't know about that. Oh, man. Me don't know that. I know have knowledge. I don't know Cafe lights

String lights Bright Wall See and dock Plug in Plug in or sun Plug in or sun It like sun at night

Sun at night Can't see Oh But then turn light on Hello Plug in or sun GFI GFCI

Circuit It's going to explain what light is to them. Yeah. Once dark, now see. Tom. Tom Edison. No son, Edison. Fell thousand times.

Wow. Only one way. No work to make a light bulb. No work. No job of employment. But one time. Cool. W2 or 1099?

Oh, we're having fun. We're having fun. We're upsetting somebody somewhere probably. And if they're upset in somebody somewhere probably. And if they're upset. at that. Maybe this podcast isn't for them. Just know we have good hearts. I love all these people.

Yeah, I think it's just like a, I don't know, in those seven years, we can have an episode where we do accents for 15 minutes. No time. Come on. No time for accent. I don't understand why accents are offensive. I mean, I guess if you say like offensive things. I think, yeah, that is to me where it crosses

a lie probably. It's like you are. You're saying mean things about them. Yeah. Yeah. It's not the accent to me. me. If I impersonate Timon, but I just say like a thing that Simon said, that doesn't seem offensive. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But if I impersonate Brandon, Imsh, and just say stupid things,

maybe he'd be upset. Yeah, that's racist. It kind of is a golden rule that's very subjective, but it is like, the rule is if it's funny, it doesn't matter. That can cover on things like accents and is that okay or, you know, fill in the blank of things that like, if done wrong, yeah, that looks terrible. But if it's funny, you cover all the bases. It automatically becomes not funny when it's like, oh, you just, you hate this, like, you hate this race. It's like, what are you doing?

Yeah. Yeah, it just, it looks way worse. Yeah. If you can tell. I have something, uh, the experience this weekend that I hope it's not in your Airbnb or in your flip house. Okay, good. Well.

Because it might be, maybe it's too late. What? Black mold. Hey, praise the Lord. No mold anymore. We got the test. They're all good. Oh, great.

Yeah. All right. That's got so good. Yeah. Thousand percent. Yes, it does. Go ahead. The thing that I would not like to see, I could put up with this for a weekend and Airbnb, so that's

probably fine. But in a home is the straight from the top, straight from the laser out of my head, rainfall, shower. Is that the word for it? Okay. Only one spout and it's straight above. I showered that way this weekend. Did not like it.

Good news. That does not exist. I have one in the flip house, but it's like a secondary, like, you know, you know, you can have both of them on at once kind of. Oh, you have two spouts. Yes. Now, that could be fun. I'm trying to get a wet and wild.

Why in the world are you doing one? That was the only option I had. Right. Why did they decide? Yeah. Let's put one up there. You spin the whole shower with your head down. Truly, like, my neck hurt.

Because you can't, like, if you look up, if you just stand normal, you get water in your eyes. Do you? So you have to. You can't just, like, stand straight and there's like, look. Oh, you'll be blanking up a storm. Really? Yeah, I promise you you can't, you can't look straight. You at least have to somewhat tilt down.

Yeah, I spit the whole shower kind of looking down. And then like, it's not easy to get most of your body. Yeah, you're right. You're right. It's amazing how important that angle is. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, I just feel like I couldn't relax.

Okay, good to know. Neck. Yeah, bummer. Rainfall shower. Rainfall shower. Shower straight down. Go good. That's how I felt.

Angle. angle. You know angle? Of course you do. Math. See, that's nice things I'm saying. Yeah. Anyway, I just think that's not, we don't need to get crazy. I would like a new sunscreen. We don't need a new shower. The angle of attack from a showerhead is perfect as it is. I have no notes. Okay. For our showers have been done for years. That's so interesting. That's the only shower. Yeah. That's too bad. Did it come? Maybe you didn't notice this, but like did it look like the faucet was originally over on the wall and it like snaked or like did they have a pipe that went up to the ceiling or was

it like this is like a completely gutted barn renovated like I think they put in the water and they put it in this way. Oh, was it the, how was that you see? Did the, did it move it all? It was too tall for me to move it. Oh boy. Stuck. Stuck. Stuck. Stuck raining on me. That's a bummer because you should be able to like at least move it a little bit probably, but not you. Bummer. Okay. So you, you suffered in Arizona. It was a... It was tough day. Yeah.

This is zinc sunscreen. Newly renovated house where this family was gone for spring break. Yeah. Just extremely, extremely convenient. But rainfall shower. Yeah, it was a question. Good to know. They had a,

they had their last name above the, like, just on one of the walls in the kitchen. And under each letter was a very short sentence, almost like family mottoes or whatever. You know, I really liked it. I get in the house of there five seconds, and I notice rhythms, you know, something about family, live in rhythms. Okay.

Is spelled incorrectly. Do you fix that for them? Or do you tell them, what do you do? You, who's, what's your role? You're saying your specific role? Yeah, what do you, yeah, what should I do in that scenario? Did you meet them? No, they were gone the whole time.

Yeah, you don't, you don't worry about it. That's, that's on them. Well, and how permanent is this sign? I think I could have, I could have, I could have fixed. it myself. Oh, wait, wait. So these are like a marquee board almost where like you're putting letters up there and not like the like photo shoot

like we're pregnant type like board but something in between that and permanent. Oh yeah. You could have changed it. I think I could have. I think I had the letters to change it. Yes, yes. Would they just not put an H? It was like R-Y. T-H-H-Y, which I've been on record. It's probably the hardest word of spell. The only way I do it is I just know it's

rhyme, like rhyme, rhythm, R-H-Y, T-H-M, right? That's actually going to help me. I know. Thank you. T-H-M. Just like rhyme. Feel the rhythm. Feel the rhyme.

Yeah, they had two whys in there. Anyway, I didn't fix it. I didn't know what to do. I didn't realize that it was like a fixable thing. If it's like, oh, we had this ordered and printed, I'm like, no, don't worry about that. Scratch it up for them. You're like, I could have fixed. I could have put a Sharpie up there on it.

That's funny, though. Rhythm. Because maybe the kid did it or something, you know. Yeah. Part of his rhythm. Was it like every sentence corresponded with that, like a letter in their name? Yep.

Their last name, you know, P, A, C, you know, P was, you know, preserve the moments. Okay. Fun. I don't know. Yeah, I would have changed it. All right. I'll go back. Because they would have noticed.

They don't know how to spell it anyway, so they're not going to be like, well, finally, somebody fixed that. You know? Yeah, they might not ever notice. that's interesting though. Anyway. I don't know. Maybe we need some signs like that. I do like the idea of having like,

we have like unofficial values, but it's like, I want this to be an official value. Yeah, like get it on paper or on the wall. Yeah. I mean, I had that thought with Friday.

It's like, I want some more top down vision or pillars or things we believe in or almost like, um, checkpoints. Like before every product we launch, it should pass these,

it should pass three, three things. Make these decisions based off of these, criteria. Every piece of content we make. It should go through this, like a filter is maybe the right word. Sure. Yeah. Does it bring people joy? Does it add, whatever? And if it doesn't, then it's not for us.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Is it called aura. Yes, it is. Okay. Let's come out with it. Can you aura farm with it? Go ahead and post it, C. The Aurora. Aurora. All right, before we get into the bracket, anyone got anything that need to say? Timing.

Anything you want to go off your chest, pre-bracket? I think I'm okay. I think If Brad's okay, I'm okay. Brad, you okay? I'm okay. Sorry, I'm looking. Is it bird watching? Dude, I got a camera on the flip house and it says, person seen. Person, seen.

Is it, what app? Well, I got two. I got a ring camera. I got a ring camera for the doorbell and then I have a little Google, Google camera, Google Home. Okay. So, for more like the driveway. Nice.

So I knew when Miguel was there or not. Sometimes he said, I'm here. I was like, no, you're not, dude. Oh, really? Are you installing the camera? And that's the only way I can't see you? Are you behind the camera? Uh, Tim, what were you going to say, though? What was it? You need to go up your chest, bud? Oh, sorry, yeah. Um, I like those shoes. Are they new?

Thanks. They're pretty new. Why don't you text us when you buy things? I'll show. Why are we having to find out this way? Thanks, you guys for the shoes. You're getting them up? Gosh. Shoes are up. They're a little dirty, but I like the, they're on clouds. That's the bottom of them.

They're on clouds, but they're kind of like mid. They've got a lot of my lower, my like, underneath my thigh in that one. there we all. What do you think? On clouds? I've never owned on clouds. They're comfy. I got some on clouds, but they're dumb-looking ones.

Sorry. I got them for free. So I don't feel as bad, but every time I wear them, I take them off. I look at myself in the mirror. I'm like, I don't like the way I look in those. Are they burgundy? No, but they're like dressier tennis shoes. And I just look like a loser in them.

I don't know. I don't like those kind of shoes very much. They're like tennis. They're like, Roger Federer. shoes. Okay. Huh. All right.

Thank you for letting me get that up my chest like I was hoping to. Yes. Thanks, timing. Yeah. All right, Jake, we always forget to say this, but we're going to say it right now. It's going to go in to our ad read about 23 minutes in, timing. Got it.

Absolutely. And you can get 10% off. So, GRKC, put your money where your beans are. Couldn't have said it better myself. Yep. presented by macy roasters. If everyone said their piece, you can look on the screen,

go to Spotify, go to YouTube. This is the fast food restaurant bracket. Unificial bracket. I didn't spend a ton of time thinking about the seeds. I spent a little bit of time. We all brainstormed the restaurants that should probably go in here.

Yes. So we are going to debate. It's March Madness season. It's bracket season. Let's find out who the champion is. Okay. We're basing this off of whatever we feel like at the time.

Good. Yeah, it could change throughout the seat. Yeah, second round is different than the first. I don't know. Okay, I'm looking here. So we got first round matchup, one 16. The one versus 16 seed. One seed. Apply, they had a good year. They had a good year. They had a good year. They always well coached. They did good in their conference. They did a good out of conference. They're a blue blood. Chipotle. Chipotle versus the 16 seed KFC.

Hmm. I don't necessarily think that's a, good restaurant, but 16 was strong. Like good for them? Or like you think they shouldn't even made the bracket? No, I think they, I know, I think maybe they're, I don't know. I was going to say maybe they're a little bit higher. Let me see who else is. Whoa, dude.

You see your 15 seat over here? That's a, that's a wild thought. We'll get there. They had a rough year. They squeaked by. They're in the bubble. That's a tough first round matchup. So yeah, KFC was one of the last, last two in.

Yeah, last two out. Had to win their conference to get in. didn't make it. Who didn't make it would be... We get Hardee's in there? No. No Hardys and no Arby's. No Arby's is in there.

Arby's in there number 12. Yeah. I'm gonna... Subway? Subway should be in there. Arby's is so good. Wait. Subway not.

Subway out. Subway's gone. Subway gone. Well, we had to get Long John Silver's in there. He used to love Subway. You're, you feel sad now. How did they not... Pretty sure I told them.

No, we had to get Long John Silver's in there. I mean... That's pretty sure that's exactly what I told. Look at its logo. It's got a nice little logo. All right, first round matchup, Chipotle or KFC? It's got to be. I would vote Chipotle.

It's got to be Chipole. It's an easy, easy choice. KFC, how many times have you guys been to KFC in your life? Non-Trinidadian KFC. Exactly three. I got to be in a real rough spot. Exactly three? That's my, I think that it would probably be three.

Yeah. Definitely less than 10. But not in the past five years for sure. they like advertise sometimes like they have like these buckets or boxes or whatever it's like mashed potatoes and corn and chicken all in one thing

I'm like there's no way there's no way there's no way that you're gonna get that correct I'm not I'm not touching that I touch the chicken alone probably I'm not going mashed potatoes from a fast food place

oh I might would you yeah corn is it KFC and Taco Bell they're usually a combo or like can Taco Hut I've been to KFC plenty of times, but I'm going to the taco though. Yeah, that's a good point.

If there's two of them. I remember as a kid thinking can taco hut was unreal. It was like, you could choose any of them. And I did there for a little bit. It was like, all right, let me take some soft tacos, some breadsticks, and a biscuit. I would. I would just get bread from all three restaurants. That's amazing. Yeah, I think Chipotle wins.

Twoli wins. Easy. And they're in the round of eight. The elite eight. Some people are going to say Chipotle is not fast food. I say, how fast do you want it? Because it's right there, ready. That's a good point. They have drive-thrues now. And most of all, our podcast. Our podcast.

All right. Next matchup, 8 versus 9 here. The honor to get to play Chipotle in the next round. Burger King versus Sonic. This is a tough one. You know what, dude? I have my answer, but... Go ahead.

No, I want to hear you. I'm saying Sonic. Okay. Yeah. I think it's mainly, like, I think it is overpriced. That's one thing. They kind of expect you to tip there, which is weird. I will say I don't like that.

They've always wanted to tip. I'll be taking care of you today. And no, it's over. But hey, I've had, I, I love their milks. Like, they have really good milkshakes. What do they call? What do they call? Cream slush.

I don't know. You ever had their cream slush, dude? It's like a milkshake, but you combine slush and ice cream. It's good. It sounds scary, but maybe good. So good, dude. It's not for everybody. But they have, like, those, they call Sonic Blas.

I don't know what they're called, but like the, oh, master milkshakes or something. Oh, where you go like, maybe? Master, master milk. Exactly. Oreos and, yeah, Oreo peanut butter milk tape. I just know they taste so good.

And they have like great cheese curds. I just, I just have been there more often than Burger King because it's better. You ever got the French toastics? No. I mean, I haven't in years,

but I remember that being a thing. Do you ever get down on a wacky pat grilled cheese? Oh my. Their grilled cheeses are insane. You guys got to sell them on Sonic right now. I like Sonic better and I don't even know the half of their menu.

Sonic is versatile. It's got some good, breakfast stuff too. It's French toastings, but they're like toaster sandwiches or whatever. I don't know. Those are good. They got good wraps.

Sonic is nice. And it is kind of expensive, but I think at least you can get half-priced shakes in the summer after eight. Cool. At least it used to be. I also heard there's like they have some good app too. Happy hour. Happy hour always on the app.

Grayden used to work there. He's like, I can get like this some kind of two cheeseburger deal for like five bucks or something like that. That sounds unbelievable. but sounds like it's true. Crazy, I'll give the nod to Burger King on only two things. The speed at which you get your food,

Sonic is slow. Oh, but what do you think Burger King? They're still faster than Sonic. You're not confident in Burger King. They're still faster than Sonic. Sonic might make it fresh. I don't know. That's great.

And then the other thing, Burger King is AlphaGal Friendly. They got the impossible meat there. Is it good? It's fine. You know, I'm eating this burger, and I'm mainly tasting, tasting ketchup and mustard. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.

It's kind of what a burger. Those are good condiments, though. Yeah. They have good ketchup and mustard. In my opinion, Sonic wins. Oh, they got corn dogs. I just remember that. Sonic does?

Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Well, I just remembered because I feel like it's good food. It's like the day before my birthday every year. It's like dime day. What is it? 25 cent corn dog or something like that.

Yeah. Oh, because in college. Sounds awesome. Oh, yeah, happy birthday to me. They used to do that crazy deal on mozzarella sticks for a while. Those are nice. You like mozzarella sticks? I do.

I do. Yeah, I need them, too. Pressibites. Crescenti bites. Dude, Sonic. Sonic's nice, dude. They put nerds in drinks. Exactly.

I've never even ordered that. It's cool they do it. Ocean water? You ever had ocean water? People like that in college. I think I have. Blue coconut and Sprite. With Burger King have funny tweets.

See, that's the thing. I think Sonic wins, but I think Burger King needs to be respected. I think sometimes Burger King gets forgotten about in the fast food world. The Whopper is unbelievable. I think a Wopper is one of my favorite burgers. It's very good. I don't even know if I can say that. Like, I don't know if I have any special love for Burger King.

They got a nice flame grill. Back in the day, they used to have dino nuggets, like chicken nuggets shaped like dinosaurs. Those were fun. So, yeah. Anyway, I give it to Sonic. Sonic. Yep. Sonic.

Okay. All right. Next round. Number four seed, Panda Express. number 13 seed Wendy's. I don't hate this seating. Jake, Jake was the CD, Cedar. Seater.

But a lot of people are going to say Wendy got a bad draw. 13 seed is a lot of people love Wendy's. I don't know. I do love a good frosty. Is that what they're called? Yeah. Yeah.

And they're like a dollar. Like the smallest one, you get a little, cheap little frosty. That, man, Express. I've turned a little bit of a quarter on the frosty, Not that anything's changed with the taste, but in my experience, I mean, what they're selling you is just ice cream.

Like, you can't use a straw on this frosty for 30 minutes. What do you want a straw for? Well, I'm just saying, like, it's not like a, I don't know. It's like a milkshake kind of, but like. But it has to be consumed via spoon. Yeah, and you don't like that. I don't like it. I would rather just have a milkshake.

Okay. It just feels like I'm ordering ice cream. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Yeah. Yeah. But I just prefer a milkshake over ice cream in a cup, is all I'm trying to say. Okay. I usually,

my experience with milkshakes is usually I order it, and then they give it to me. And then 13 seconds later, I think, wish I would have had more of that. I wish I would have paced myself more. It's kind of nice. I feel like a frosty sometimes you get a little bit more of a chance with it. Yeah. It's like, crap. It's already over.

This past weekend. Here comes a brain freeze. Kyle's fiancé was like, I'm going to make smoothies. Jake, do you have a preference on? Do you like them thinner or thicker? I was like, I don't know if I've ever thought about my smoothie consistency preference. And Kyle was like, let me translate for you. What she's asking is, do you want to consume this in five minutes or 30 minutes?

I was like, now that makes sense. That I can understand. And I'll take the five minute version. Oh, I like my smoothie's thick. To pace yourself. Yes. I like it to last. And I drink things quickly.

Yeah, I'd much rather that. All right, Panda Express is nice. Pantera is so good. We need to consider this, though. The price to value ratio. Because there's something at Wendy's called the 4 for 4. And it's nice. I don't remember.

It's like nuggets, four nuggets with like fries, drink and a pot of chili. Maybe. Cup of chili or something. You ever gone cup of chili at Wendy's? Peter Casey only. July 4th, Cup of Chili, please. Oh, I've had a cup of extra crackers.

I remember this now. Have you? Yeah. I think it's like Wendy's was definitely like a, you know, if my family is going to go somewhere for food, there's so many of us. I guess Wendy's is fairly reasonable prices. Yeah. Yeah. That's a good thing to consider.

Yeah. Wendy's was the first place I remember that didn't take your cup when you asked for refills. They just got you a new cup. So they have a cup surplus at Wendy's. They ordered too many cups. They're like, we're not touching your cup. You can hold it. You can put in the trash if you want to.

We'll get you another one. Is Wendy's what has like square burgers too? They don't cut corners. God. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. I mean,

if we're going to go upset at any time, I don't think we go. I don't know, man. I definitely would not upset here. I would go panda. You love panda. I love panda. I love panda.

You're right. There's never a bad panda experience in my head. You know what this is making me want to do? Like, this is making me want to do like an Instagram series where I just, each day I get, like I try the two that are up against each other.

and I can actually have a fresh perspective of like, okay. Because Wendy's, I haven't been to Wendy's in years. I don't remember what it's like. I have a bit of a skewed, I don't know, perspective of a lot of stuff.

Like I would eat a lot more of these fast food places if I could have burgers or tacos or whatever. But it's kind of just like, if I'm going to have chicken, why would I go to Wendy's? Why would I go to Culver's? Especially if they're right next door to each other. Yeah, we have kind of chicken row,

as the locals call it. Poor KFC. What are they, do it. Poor KFC. Run for the hills. Whoever this landlord is, well, I guess Chick-Fle usually owns their own land. We don't need to get into it, but who let Chick-Fleigh build right next, right in between a Wendy's and a KFC? Don't you know KFC was like, what? No, stop it. Block the bill. It's going to make our people go from eight to four. Yeah, that sucks for KFC. But yeah, we got, we got chicken row right here. So yeah.

I would get Wendy's way more if I could have burgers. Okay. I like the burgers. All I'm saying, would you rather have one meal at Panda Express with your tiny little water. Remember, tiny water. I do have tiny waters. Tiny water. That kills me. But you get a fortune cooking.

Fortune cooking. And they want me to donate to Children's Miracle Network so they can write it off. Yeah, you got to round up. Over my dead body. So you get one of those meals or you imagine three, four for fours. Wow. That's kind of what it's like. That's all I'm going to say.

Dude, they load you up at Panda, though. They fill that plate. Yeah. The plate's heavy. I always full up for Panda. I'm so. nice and full. And it tastes so good. All right. Orange chicken double chalmane.

Oh, I just want the record to show that we at least gave Wendy's a chance. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But Panda is awesome. You're right. Let the record show. Brad gave Wendy's a chance. Oh, no. You're right, I did. Orange chicken, what's it called? Cung Pau chicken, the spicy one? That's good. I'm a fried rice guy.

I'm always a double orange chicken and chalemain and fried rice. That's so, Jake. And fried rice. That's good, yeah. Every now that I go out of time and... Chalmaid and fried rice, they kind of merge. They kind of don't. You can get three or four, four for fours with time in's order. Could be. Could very well be. Yeah, tiny water cups and the biggest large soft drink cup in the world, I think.

It's so big. Yeah. The large is. Yeah. No, panda. I think Wendy's maybe too. Oh, there are a lot of restaurants where a medium is getting very big. Waterburger is that way.

Waterberg. It's like, I remember the first time I was like, I'll take a medium milkshake. Like, all right, here you go. I'm like, I wanted a medium. Yeah, welcome to Texas. So what else is like that is a smoothie king. You take the medium. It's 32 ounces.

That's a lot of smoothie. Yes, dude. Yeah, you want a large, it's like that was your calories for the week. Yeah. Hope you had a good workout. Yeah, okay. 512 matchup, McDonald's and Arby's. You talk about two places.

I don't visit frequently at all. I got, I don't know. This is the first one that I have, truly I'm going to have to think about for a while. Really? How much time you need? Go ahead. I've been...

Talk out loud. Okay. So McDonald's, I was so loyal... Like, I had McDonald's so often, probably like a year ago. Past few months, I've had so much Arby's. Really? Oh. I love Arby's.

I guess... Oh. Tell me more about what you get to Arby's. It's tough because... I'm not an Arby's guy at all. Okay. Just like a big old roast beef sandwich with the curly fries and a bunch of Arby's sauce is one of the best fast food meals that I know of.

What is Arby? Is it kind of like barbecue? Arby sauce. It's, I don't know how to describe it. It's kind of like, it's got a bit of a tang, but it's not.

Okay. Maybe barbecue sauce-esque. I truly don't know how to like describe the flavor, but it's so good. Okay. I, shoot, man. I don't know. McDonald's,

like, I've eaten McDonald's for so long, but Arby's like, it's better. This is my opinion. I would like to hear you guys, your guys' thoughts. I am strongly on team.

double arches. Team DA. I think McDonald's is awesome. And I think we've, we've been saturated in this world with a lot of good fast food places. I understand why they're not, I understand why they're not,

you know, number one anymore. They're not, they're not on the top of the seating. But McDonald's, remember what you got, what you got here with. Yeah.

You got here with McDonald's. They built this country, right. They built this country. They're everywhere. They have, they have breakfast. I miss some,

some things. about old McDonald's? He had a farm. I don't know. I don't know. Remember parfets? Parfite. Parfate.

Parfate. Parfate. Remember the parfates? I mean, there's some robust menu. McFurries. I grew up on McDonald's. Here's the thing. McDonald's getting expensive.

Hotcakes and sausage. Oh, pre-tick bite. Oh, yeah. McDonald's getting expensive, though. Yeah. It's not what it used to be. It used to be, they had to have a dollar menu. Now it's like value menus is $3.

How much is it drink these days? Back when I was going, everything was like $1.9. Yeah, now it's like $1.50 plus tax, I think. So it's still not terrible, but sometimes more. But I think McDonald's is my pick. Arby's is probably on the, would have been my 16 seed. Okay. I don't, the Jemoka shake is the only thing I like there.

And that's so good, too. It's so good. Curly fries? Oh, yeah, you're right. I'm sorry. Curly fries. Insanely good. I'm sorry.

I can't emphasize enough how good. good. It's tough because it's like, McDonald's probably overall, like, should win for me, but Arby's, I'm kind of rooting for it because it's like, I feel like Arby's gets a lot of hate and I want to be on its team. Good for you. So my vote is Arby's. Okay. Your vote's double arches. I don't go to either these places.

How do we feel about calling someone to break this tie? And who would you guys like to call? You choose. No, you choose. All right. Thank you. I'm just good to my contacts here. All right, from the top. Ashley, no.

Angie. I'm going to call Oliver. Is that fine? Very well. Is he going to be on? I don't know. I'm trying to think of someone who I don't think would have a, well, I guess someone should have a strong opinion.

I shouldn't know it. Oh, Isaac. I have no idea what Isaac's opinions about this would be. Sure. I'll call him. It takes a special kind of, honestly, Scott's probably eaten R-A-Vs sometimes. I think you had to go a little bit against the grain to eat Arby's.

You can tell Siri to put it on speaker. Oh, cool. I'm a fan. Call him on speaker. He's going to say, yo. Hi, you've reached Isaac McDonald. What do you say? Get all over in there.

Said Arby's, I think. Or Zach? Actually, what's funny is I was excited about Isaac because I know that he actually loves Arby's, so he would have back me up, so I was kind of good idea. Okay, now I want to call Isaac. Because I think he likes... Yeah, yeah, you get him. Siri, call Isaac McDonald on speaker.

Yeah, Joe Mokra shakes are nuts. Yeah. You got to consider breakfast. You've reached Isaac McDonald with Village Woodworks. Village Woodworks. Shoot. All right. Scott?

Do we want to go Scotty? Sure. Yeah, go Scott. Siri, call Scott Sell on speaker. Your call has been forwarded. Are they on a call? I don't know. Okay.

Oh McDonald's Who goes to Arby's Yeah I do but that's fine No one goes to Arby's I do but it's I probably don't What's the kind of person that goes to Arby's Zach?

I'm going to put a picture on screen here at this moment in the podcast of an absolute Arby's Hall that me and Isaac ate one night in the Elythe House. It was great. Arby's Hall. Add that on screen. That's funny. Cozy Earth. What do you think of it? Let's just go.

Hot or not. Cozy Earth. Hot. Kind of, though. Temperature regulated. Temperature regulated, yeah. So kind of set you up for failure there, didn't I? Cozy earth. Time me.

Cozy earth sweatshirts, hot or not? I'm making an assumption that hot means good. Okay. Instead of like, okay, let's play good or bad. They're not stuffy. They're not stuffy. I don't want to give the wrong. Okay.

I did hot or not. I should have done good bad. It's okay. Cozy earth sweatshirts, good or bad. Good. All right, Jake, let's go this. Let's do Cozy Earth socks, good or bad. Good.

Okay, Cozy Earth. Towels? Good or bad? Good. Okay, cozy Earth, good or bad. Good. Yes. Overall good. Overall good.

Do you understand? We love cozy earth. Three things I think you should get right now. The joggers. What's the crewneck we have time? Cityscape. Cityscape. Yeah.

Cityscape, Krooak. If you can afford to go bedsheets. If you've already, you know, committed to some other, if you already have Cozy Earth bed sheets, then I would get your wife a set of pajamas. Those feel good. I don't wear them, but I take them out of the laundry occasionally. I go, those feel nice.

You could wear them and be like, I look ridiculous because they're women's pajamas, but man, am I sleeping good in these things? Make fun of me. I won't be able to say anything back because I'm already asleep. If someone sends us a receipt that they spent over $1,000 at Cozy Earth, Jake will send me. Jake will post in the next ad read for Cozy Earth,

the picture of him in Rachel's pajamas. I'll do an episode in Rachel's pajamas. For a thousand? If someone does a thousand dollar order. Okay. Yeah. And that could be $1,000 before using the 20% off code GRKC. So if you spend $800 on Cozy Earth,

episode in pajamas. Somebody's totally going to do this. No, they won't. That's going to be amazing. That'd be impossible. I don't think they have the goods. I can't wait. Prove it.

I can't wait. All right. Cozierth.com slash ghost renters, GRKC, 20% off. Check them out. All right, we're on to the other side of the bracket. The two seed is raisin canes, and shockingly, the 15 seed is What a Burger.

Yeah, how did this happen? I don't know. I also swore I put Subway in here, so I don't know. This is wild. I mean, my initial reaction is What a Burger. You like it more? I do. That's, this is the easiest.

What do you get at Keynes? I get the box combo. Yeah, what's that? It's chicken and also you can get sauce. Okay. And? And toast, too. Good toast.

Have you heard of their caniak? I think so. I think that one is chicken. And you get sauce and toast. So you've had their, the three finger combo. It's chicken toast and sauce, I think. Yep.

Have you ever had their sandwich? It's two pieces of toast with chicken in the middle of it. That sounds good. Okay. Everything that we just talked about is the most is so good. It's so. Yeah, what we're not talking about is the best sauce no to mankind is involved at all of it. Okay. Okay. That's toast also as well. Okay. Okay. Too. Okay. As well. If I could isolate just the honey butter chicken biscuit at Waterburger, it could be the four seed on its own. So why? Okay. But then you, you add on more. It's not like it has to be like, it's not a negative that it has more things at Waterburger, right?

This is so easy. Four seed is still not as good as the two seat, though. You got burgers, you got milkshakes? You love milkshakes, Jake? I do love milkshakes. Massive milkshakes. Not this year, but other years. Yes, I love milkshakes.

I just, I just, Keynes is so much better. This is, like, also just an easy, like, I believe What a Burger truly is mid. It's not very good. Like, I, the burger's, like, kind of a brick. It's, like, just, like... Takes forever.

Yeah, it's just not. Massive brick. Doesn't taste very good. Huge brick, though. Dude. I think of the size of the brick, though. You can get jalapinos on that thing. You can get bacon.

You can go. Yeah. And one time, it was late at night and I did try the honey butter chicken biscuit. And I think I might have gotten a bad one. You're either tequitos? No. You got Dr. Pepper shakes?

Yeah, that sign always looks good. They're always pushing that. They got stuff there you probably don't even know they got. I'm sure. It's because I'm at all. It's because I'm at canes. If you were late at night enough. It's unfortunate. Waterburger has had a bad experience in Kansas City, I think.

We have bad ones. It's like you can't go there unless you have an hour and a half or more. To kill. It's like, I could catch up on some emails in the car. Oh, I just downloaded a book on my Kindle. I'll go to Waterburger Drive-Thru. I have not had a good Waterburger experience in Kansas City yet, unfortunately. It does hit, though, like, for whatever reason you're driving somewhere late at night and you're like, is it past 11?

It is. Oh. HBCV time. That is so good. This is what I would try in my Instagram series. I would give it a good chance. I mean, get the Brickburger.

Once again, it's about the criteria. Is it a one and done? I guess it's a tournament where it's just like, you need a one good game and then you move on the next round. But you know what you're going to eat

on the next round at Keynes? You're going to eat the same thing you ate yesterday. Like there's one, they have a fastball. It's a really good fastball. It's a good fastball. But... Good sauce.

I don't know, man. I think they're, I'll concede to you guys if you think Keynes is like far and away better. I think it is. I got to go Keyes. Okay. Yeah. Okay. Next, excited to see where we fall on this one.

Seven seat is Taco Bell. The 10th seat is Hawaiian bros. There's going to be some people out there who probably never had Hawaiian bros. Yeah, but it's, it's got, it's getting around. It's getting around kids city at least. I mean, once again, I just love Taco Bell. Me too. Just love it.

I think Hawaiian Bros is great, but man, Taco Bell is one of those things. It's kind of like a canes in disguise where it's like, oh, what do you get on that? Well, it's ground beef and cheese, like some melted cheese and some bread. And then shredded cheese. And sometimes it's crunchy, sometimes it's soft bread. It's really good. They call it the gordita crunch. Oh, what are you good at the Mexican pizza?

So Mexican pizza is just like, you know, whatever. But man, they do it well. Yeah. That grade F meat. Yeah. The dogs must be eaten well. If that's dog food, good for the dogs. Good for the pooches. This is sad for me because I love Hawaiian rows, but I think the stats speak for themselves, and I go to Taco Bell so much more often. Well, especially- You gotta consider price. Nacho fries season.

Notcho fries. I love nach fries. See, they were innovative on the nach-fries thing. It was like, what are they doing with these things? They taste so good. They're awesome. And I think I get a very basic Taco Bell order. I always get a three regular taco hard shell combo with not just tacos. It's just tacos and I get hot sauce. Yeah. And it's amazing. What do you think, Jake?

I think where I'm at now, I go to Hawaiian Bros. Way more on Taco Bell. At its peak, though, nothing hit like a taco with mild sauce from Taco Bell. Yep. It's like I would still probably vote Hawaiian Bros. but I think you guys are going to go to Taco Bell, and that's okay with me. Okay.

The best ability is availability. Taco Bell is often open 24 hours a day. Yeah, it is. I don't know if they're open 24. They're open late, though. Yeah. Hawaiian Bros. open late, though.

Maybe not Taco Bell late. They are. Cains and Hawaiian Bros are open to 11 p.m. Yeah, that's nice. That is nice. I think Hawaiian Bros is good. Once again, Hawaiian Bros. It's high quality, more expensive.

You're not getting out of there for less than $15. It's true. Yeah. Unless, they have those wraps. I haven't had a wrap yet. Messy, but good. really yeah messy rap yeah that's unfortunate because they're loading it up okay okay I talk about though okay we we're okay with them all right tough one at number oh three versus 14 here

chick flavor versus long john silvers dreading this one this one this one of those it's over yep all right are there any other games on yeah it's over let's see it on true tv yeah oh cool in and out's playing culvers i'll watch that that that's gonna be a good one that's gonna be a good game i like that one the second half of that yeah yeah chick fillet In a landslide. Chequay 1. I think Long John Silver's back in the day, I didn't hate it. I didn't hate it.

A little chicken, little hush puppy. Yeah, I was never, never got fished there. Always chicken. Like one time they kind of baited and switched me. Whether on purpose or not actually, I don't know. I was like, whoa. Why would anyone ever get fish? That tastes disgusting.

Yeah, what did they do here? Yeah, breaded fish. Negative of Long John Silver's always has been. I'm sure to this day it still is. They have that vinegar sauce. And if someone uses it from halfway across the room, you're smelling that crap. You know what I'm talking about? Like, it's like, yeah, it's pungent.

It feels the room. Do you remember at Long John Silver's back in the day, at least ours? If they did well, you ring the bell. Do you have that? No. It's like as you're walking out, there was a bell. And like, if the customer service is good, you can ring that thing. That sounds fun.

Yeah, good. I don't think I've ever been. It's very forgettable. We're in the golden ageers fast food. We don't need to worry about long. They have not adapted. They will die. Yeah, it's kind of amazing they haven't already.

They've got to be barely hanging on. Good job, Chick-Fle-A. You're on to the next round. Quick-Plate. Easy win. All right. This one's tough, dude. In-N-Out number six.

Culver's number 11. Tough. Tough draw for Colvers. Tough draw for in-and-out. This is in-and-out. Also really a simple menu, right? Yeah. Yep.

Is that a negative for you? No. All of a negative for you. No, I'm saying, I was like, is Bragging to glaze in and out when he was just dogging on cane. Yeah, but I bet in and out has, there's that factorial, whatever. You're talking variations, yeah. Yeah, I bet there's a, like, they have the sauce and they have the cheese that you can add. You can do all these different stuff.

Animal style. Yeah. Human style. So I think there's, there's some variations. But I agree. It's pretty simple. Yeah. I love in and out, though.

I think in and out is a little overrated. I think maybe that's my one. Burger. I think that's fair. Every time I go, I'm like, yes, in and out, because it's not around Kansas City. So it's like so exciting when we see one in Arizona or Dallas or whatever, California. Every time I go, I'm like, oh yeah. Oh, yeah. It's just okay. I think the last time we had it was in Arizona, or last time I had it was in Arizona for your bachelor party. And it was all right. But you went to Tripoli. And I thought, well, we have, we have Tripoli, so I'm not going to do that. But man, I kind of wish I went to pull.

I love Colvers. You do like Colvers. It's the blue Chick-fil-A. It's a thousand percent is. It's warm. I think so many. Home-schooled employees. Yeah.

And a lot of them. Yes. Parking lot's always full because there's 20 people on staff. Yes, dude. Well, but their moms drop them. I think these days, so many restaurants are going to this like modern, minimalist aesthetic. Colvers is sticking with like, they have carpet in there.

Yeah. Massive lobby. Booths. Yeah. Yeah. Nice comfortable booths, not these like new age, like, you know, flimsy things. I don't know how popular Culver's is or if it stretches beyond the Midwest, but it's crushing it here. And it seems to also be crushing it with the 60 and older community. That's like a top three spot for them. There's always old people sitting down on Culver's. Yes. Yep. Kids, though, if you go kids, you get a free scoop of ice cream with every kid's meal. Yeah. It's a waste if you don't. It's awesome. So it's like, hey, we should go over's, right? All right. You guys, you guys,

I'll just share that ice cream. I'll share this one over here. Yeah, Culver's is nice. It's In-N-Out so good that it... Because Culver's also has a lot of different options. I don't know. I will say In-N-Out has some of the worst fast-food fries in the world. Oh, does it? That's just basic? They have no flavor. They give you a little salt packet. That's how...

They know how bad the fries are. They know you're going to need it. Do you not go animal-style? Animal-style. I know what animal style is, but I thought that it was just for the burger. Oh, you can do it on the fries. You were doing it on the milkshake? I didn't know that. It's disgusting.

Do it for your Instagram. Yeah, they just, they need the salt. And even then with the salt, they're not great. They're just very bland and just no interesting flavor. But I like the in and out experience. My votes for Culvers. I'm not dogging on in and out. My votes for Culver's.

We might need another tiebreaker. This is tough for me. I have only had in and out a couple times by life because I got that tick bite. but I know that when we are in more places, Scott and Isaac are going berserk, even though it means they're going to have to drive me to a second location to eat lunch. They're like, I don't care. We're going to in and out. So that alone makes you think they're doing something, right?

Yeah. I want to know if people say that once it's in your town, though, because that's what I used to do in. Or once it's in your mouth even. Yeah. Yeah. I used to that for Waterburger. I was like, we got to go to Waterburger. We don't have them here.

They have one in Stillwater. We got to go. I wonder, yeah. But they aren't typically busy. What, Waterburgers? Or in and outs. In and outs are incredibly busy. And they're fast, too.

They are very fast. I'm not, they're very good. They put Bible references on their packaging. Come on, Brad. Oh, if you vote against it and out, you're voting against,

I think God? Oh, crap. I don't know. I can't do that. I don't know. Culver's religion. I just think, uh,

and they're homeschoolers. But I think I would vote Colbers. I actually am kind of. You would? Yeah. My vote is in and out, but I guess. Let's,

let's see if we can get Scott or, Isaac. I want to hear their arguments for in and out. Yeah, who's someone who has been to both. I mean, it sounds like they might be on a call. Scott actually, we grew up, I'll text Scott real quick. Scott and I grew up going to Culver's all the time. That was like anytime he'd be like, mom, can Brad stay for dinner? Can we go Culvers? Like that was like their spot. So I would be curious. It's tough trying to find someone who's been to both because these fast food places are not in the same cities. Yeah. That's a good point. It's like two regional. That's, that's, That's why they play the tournament.

You know? They would have never played each other otherwise. SEC versus Action. BYU versus St. John. This is a crazy matchup. Texas Scotty. When I called him, it went right to voicemail. Yeah, they weren't responded to stuff for a while.

I wonder if they're on a call. I'm going to ask some of my friends. I asked them about Arby's versus McDonald's. Let me say some of the things here. One person said McDonald's, somebody said, Arby's no question. Arby's roast beef sandwich is pretty much what you eat the first few times. Oh,

never mind. That's, oh my God. Oh my gosh. That's nothing. Okay. What was I say? Oh, Culver's or in and out. I don't know. Scott's not responding to me, but I guess my life has been to both, someone who's well traveled. Scott would be a great one for this. I'm just going to call once again. Straight, straight to it. This guy's do not disturbing at 1 p.m. the afternoon.

Also, what? Let's see. Where is he? Is he home? He's home? A goober. He's for sure watching March Madness right now. For sure.

Yeah, dude. Scott. I had a good memory probably five years ago now. Scott and I watched all day March Madas. It was great. You're right. I want to do it again. All right.

Jake and I vote Culver. Sorry, Tyne. It's okay. I'm not that mad about it. Great. All right. We can go a little quicker in these rounds now. Now that we've kind of dissected, digested. All right, Burger King and Sonic, we all end up going Sonic.

So now it's Chipotle versus Sonic. See ya. Sonic. Yeah. Unfortunately, goodbye, Sonic. Yeah, it's a good run. Yeah. But Chipotle is amazing. French Toes 6 can only do so much. You're not a burrito.

Chapoli's amazing. And they've diversified a little bit as of late. Yeah, they'll throw some extra meat in there. They're always doing something a little seasonal. Yeah, they got Kishton. So now? Yes. That's about it.

I've diversified at Chipotle recently. I've changed it up. I've thrown in fajita veggies all of a sudden. I'm throwing in, what's the other thing? Oh, beans. I never used to get beans. I'm growing beans. I'm going fajitas.

I'm going like the medium salsa on the side. I was always a mild guy. My gosh, the stuff is good. Good for you. Mixing it up. Okay. I don't know why I'm not changing it up more because I go there all the time. So it's not like I'm like,

I'm going to ruin my one Chipotle meal. You've inspired me. Yeah, Chipotle wins. Chocoles into the semi-finals, into the final four. Next, we have Panda versus McDonald's. That's Panda Express, to be fair. Panxpress McDonald's. Oh, man.

For me, this is an easy panda. I don't know about you guys. Panda pick. And so I thought at first, McDonald's has been with me through thick and thin. McDonald's my day one, though. That's so funny. Yeah, weren't you on Team Arby's against me?

I was, but I even had it. I even clarified. But he was a big Arby's guy. I clarified that, like, I probably should pick McDonald's, but I've loved Arby's recently. McDonald's raised you. McDonald's raised me. Arby's, yeah. Pandora McDonald's.

One, two, three. McDonald's. Wow. McDonald's on the final four. Yeah. I kind of surprised myself with that answer. Dang. Imagine how full that plate is of orange chicken, fried rice and chameen.

That's heavy. You stew in the trash. For what? But I'm eating a Big Mac. For what? An Eminem McFlurry, the Mams are freezing cold. Oh, dude. Eminem McFluories are unreal.

I always go Oreo. The imambs are so cold. I go Oreo. They have the mini-immons. They're so good, dude. I love mini-immin-ims on their own. Do you? Yeah.

I think Rachel talked about that one time. Fun. Fun size. They're made for each other. All right. All right. Next up, we have Cains versus... Who won?

Taco Bo versus Wine, Rose. I think Taco Bell did. Okay. Cains versus Taco Bell. My vote is Cains. I have my vote. Timmy and I love Cains. I love Cains so much.

I do. I like Cains a lot, but it gets old. Brad, in your heart, you know. In your heart, you know. But then again, if you have Taco Bell, if the argument is like, the more you have it, you know, the more you're going to get sick of it, the more you have Taco Bell,

the more you're literally going to get sick. Your body can't hold up. Like, you can't do it too often. Yeah. I know first hand. I keep a text of my friend. It's kind of fun to see their reactions. One of my friends said,

when I said McDonald's or Arby's, he said McDonald's in parentheses, Arby's is mostly gross. Mostly gross. They have some curly fries, but it's mostly gross. And I said, in and out or Culver's,

in and out in princisees. Colvers is great, though. Corver's a nice guy. Taco Bell or Cains. Yeah, okay. Cains, I guess. I'm just trying to be nice to you guys, try not to ruffle feathers.

and I don't want to become across I don't want people that all of a sudden label me as a canes hater because I like Keynes. Would you have to be a Taco Bell lover or a Keynes hater? As far as the labels go. Taco Bell Center, Kane's daughter. Yeah, that's a good question, honestly. All right, yeah, we'd you rather have a volleyball girl

or like a Keynes-loving son? All right, Kane's. theater water burger Keynes moves on. I think I'm here's what's happening. You can vote for talking about. No, I think I'm just bitter that Keynes and Waterberger had to play each other in the first round. You don't like that. Anti-Kane's because of that. But that's not their fault. They don't get to choose who they play. Yeah. So

they have Shaquille O'Neal posters. Can't don't hate on them. Yeah. They're sporty. Yeah. All right. Cain's in the final four. Next we've got Chick-fil-A versus Culver's. The highest seed still remaining. Wow. Can they pull it off. Homeschool versus homeschool.

Red versus blue. It's election season. I mean. Colvers, you're great. Exactly. Colvers, we. In another life. I don't want to, like, I want to still talk.

Look, if she hadn't asked me to homecoming, I would have loved to have gone with you. I found Chick-Lay first. Colvers, if there's a way to stay friends, I'd like, I would like that. But you see it from my angle. She's gorgeous. She's popular. She plays sports. We've had some good times, but.

she's just faster I have to go to homecoming with her was culvers have for breakfast I'm trying to find something to grab some footing here they don't do breakfast there that's the only reason say if you have breakfast I would have listen I'm looking for a breakfast spot right now

it's not you it's breakfast I'm not looking for something too late yeah chick flay chick flay oh we're gonna have a tough match up on that side of the bracket over there all right we move it fast here we go final four

Chipotle versus McDonald's. Wow. No. Chippole. Yeah. The other ones, yeah, for a reason. McDonald's, you're great.

Once again. You raised me. Yeah, you were my first. You're my first. Yeah. I want to go off and, you know, carve my own path, wet my beak on new things.

Yeah. And you know what? Is Carnitas red meat? Can I have it? Chocolie was owned by McDonald's at one point, so they're like their sisters. Stay in the family. Is that true?

That was like the big thing. It was like, yeah, their own by McDonald's. Huh. I can't remember talking about that early on the podcast, maybe. But I've forgotten most of it. Maybe it's like one of those like things it's not actually true, but that's what I always heard. Cool. Oh, sorry.

I heard this is a good point about, I said Taco Bell or Canes. One of my friends said, I would act like some people said Taco Bell, some people said Cains. And they said, I would echo Taco Bell too many Cain's places that are similar. there are a lot of good comparable canes places. In the Gulf shores are a little bit outside. Is that what it is? Yeah.

I was like, I was kind of surprising because if you don't know what you're going into, you're like, let's try this fast food place. You're like, oh, it's, it's Alabama canes. Yeah. Sweet. Yeah. But it is the exact same thing.

Yeah. Huh. I will say Zaxby's is far below canes, though. I do like Zaxby's, though. I've never had Zaxeys. So you go and you get chicken fingers, fries, and then their own sauce that they have. And they have like the Zach sauce. Oh, that's cool.

That's a good point. Taco Bell is kind of one of one. No one is trying to do what Taco Bell does. And if they have, they're not doing it well, not on a national scale. I'll tell you what I like. And I always get it when I'm down at the Eleath House working or something is Taco Johns. Oh, golly. Disagree.

I love Taco Jones. I've only been there a few times, but what should I get there if I ever go there? Because I lived next to it for five months. I drive by all the time. Always been too scared because I've never been. Oh, it's great. Easy. I get three crispy chicken tacos with Chipotle lime sauce.

Okay. All right. The sauce is unbelievable. All right. Okay. Okay. Okay. You ever get the potato allays?

That's what I remember. Rachel loves a potato aleas. Yeah. I think Taco Johns, for whatever reason, I've heard, is really loved by Oklahomaans. Okay. Broms and Taco Johns. Taco Brahms. Oh, we push.

Should have put Brahms on this list. I forgot about Brahms. Brahms was on the outside of the bubble. No? No. Come on. They're a grocery store. Not putting wallgreens on here.

All right, all right. So what is it? Chipotle beats McDonald's. And then Chick-fil-A. Chick-fil-A versus Cains. Oh, man. It's Chick-fil-A all day, boy. It probably is.

I think it is. I'm looking for breakfast right now. Man, it just gets harder. But Chick-Fleigh does win, but it's just like, I mean. Keynes comes in a strong third. Yeah, it does. They get the bronze over McDonald's.

For sure, for sure. Yeah. Chick-Flea. Chick-Flea, even though Keyfley, even though Keynes is very consistent, you know exactly what you're getting from Chick-fil-A every time. You know what I mean? Like, that's... Yeah, Friday menu, not only breakfast, but you can get a salad,

you can get a wrap. Yeah. I'm just kidding. Yeah. No, they got good, they got good. They got good breakfast food. They got, they got ice cream. Keynes doesn't do any sort of,

they got good lemonade at Keynes, but they got good lemonade at Chick-Flea. That's a wash. So, that's a completely wash. Yeah, I can't speak on the variety of menus, I don't think, because, like, I'll just find one thing I like at a restaurant, and that's the thing that I get from it.

So it's like, Chick-Fllay. Just be chicken tacos, Chip-A lime sauce. Okay, great. That will be my thing. That's fair. Yeah, I'm just a big nuggets combo guy. But even, like, just a little variation, like Chick-fil-A-A-go's spicy and regular chicken.

Like, I like that. Thank you. Thanks. They cut up the chicken and they call them nuggets. That's nice. You know? So. Have we done this before on the podcast?

What if? I'm just now realizing, like, maybe we should double-checked. I think we did a schmores of fast food. Okay. We've definitely done that. We've talked about fast food. Like, we've done like create your perfect meal and all that stuff. Okay.

That might be what I'm thinking of then. All right. I'll be in the clear. Either way, it would be fun to compare. Because I don't think Timon's been on it. Yeah, yeah. If we did it, we did it in 2020. Okay.

We got the one seed versus the three seed, Chipotle versus Chick-fil-A. Wow. I don't know what to do. I think we... My answer's locked in. I wish we would have established criteria before this started.

It's up to you. Because now... Because now it's like, man, once again, Chipotle is kind of... I like one... Well, I like a lot of different things. Oh, man.

Chipotle is, I think I get it more often, maybe. I think it like, I'm just maybe the most often in the mood for it. But the environment and the vibe of Chick-fil-A is kind of hard to be. So you're factoring in environment. Yeah, it's the vibe. I don't know. Yeah, I know. What are you factoring in?

I'm factoring in. I truly believe that Chipotle is the greatest value in America as far as, far as food goes beyond just like all the like if you're going to eat somewhere else you can get more food at tripoli than anywhere else for nine dollars or ten dollars like get a hot large meal with pretty good ingredients yep for nine dollars massive massive amount of ingredients and you can ask for more if it's not enough for the most part yeah you know the only thing they're going to charge you more for is the meat yeah and i think yeah and you for the most part every experience is the same which is same with your chip fillet, but like, it's the same good old, that cilantro, lime rice, unreal

every time. I think I'm leaning towards Chipotle. If my sister Alice works at Chick-fil-A, which she does, and I pick Chip-Fillet, is that, should I not do that? Is that me? Is it her a chick-fil-A, we need to all go to Chick-fil-A and let her-S-C-Fat-S. Scott saw her in the drive-ththrough yesterday. Really?

She said, I'm Timon's brother. I mean, sister. That's not what she said. I said. She said normal. Which one? 135th. and 69. Yeah.

Oh, fun. Yeah. That's Fos daughter that owns that one. He sent me a selfie. He said the service at Chick-fil-A was incredible today. Oh, that's good. She working tomorrow?

Maybe, probably. You go Express Lane over there? Yeah. Do you express lane today? I did. Went 93. Oh, yeah. See how fast I can get.

Just like, one of these days I'll come in like, guys, I got pulled over on the express lane. But until then. But not today. I got a letter in the mail. Actually, maybe went a little more than that. I took a picture of myself going 93.

It's kind of funny. From like the Kansas Turnpike, whatever. So, yeah, they found me. Not free. But it's a dollar 20. $1.20? I thought it was 40. I probably did it three times.

Oh, okay. I don't know. I haven't even opened the mail yet. I think today it said like 70 something since. Oh, they like surging. Cranian. Could be. Surging prices.

Time of day. Surge protecting. Chipoli is my answer. Ah. gosh, I don't know if it is. I wanted to commit, and then I thought about Chick-fil-A for a second. Chick-fil-A, well, they're both good for my family.

This is my kids love Chick-fil-A. They got a play place sometimes. The vibe is nice, Simon. They got ice cream there. We had it free for about a year and a half straight. That was unbelievable. That was unbelievable. And we never got tired of it.

Yeah. You know what I mean? Like, gosh. We didn't, that's the thing. We didn't really change up our menu very much either. No, I wasn't getting wraps and salads back then. We should have. We would have,

imagine if we would have gotten free, just like good, healthy stuff. Yeah. We could have gotten so shredded. Dang it. I have my answer. Go ahead. Chipotle. Wow.

Mine's Chick-fil-A. Oh, no. Don't do this too, guys. I think, oh. Oh. I can't believe I'm saying it because I have always loved this other place, but I think I'm going to vote Chick-fil-A as well. Wow. I had Chip-fil-A at my rehearsal dinner.

I love Chip-A. I, you know, I gave blood twice just to get two free Chip-A burritos, high school. You passed out and do it again. Yeah. I was kidding. Yeah, I think Chick-fil-A, man, I think it's the whole versatility of the whole, You can go all day long. Every day the week.

Every day. You should be going out. They don't have, they don't let you use their boiling water, though, for your windshields. That we know of. That's true. They would. I never. They would defrost it, but their mouth.

Oh, yeah. At Chiquel. They'd let you have their car. They just give it to you. Oh, I got a windshield for you. I got a warm, I got a hot shield. Yeah. So shout out.

Chick-fil-A. So if Chick-Flea wants to sponsor us, let us know. We're hungry. We're hungry, baby. Clearly we can give some value to you. If Chick-Flea sponsors the podcast, I'll switch my answer. Okay. Times vote can be bought. I feel like I wouldn't. I wouldn't feel right standing by Chip-Fle if Chick-Flea was a sponsor the podcast. If Chip-Flea was a sponsor the podcast. Great. If Waterburger sponsors a podcast, thank you. Awesome. Sick. Sick. Sick. Sick. That's really cool. Anyway, that's been fun. That was fun.

Chick-fley does it. Let us know what other brackets you want us to do during bracket season here. Or the brackets you want us to do. I said that kind of aggressively. The guttural, a little brackets. You have a bracket. Hey, let's talk about Good Rangers real quick. We're quick, quick, quick, quick, no hidden additives.

and we might even be dividing and conquering. Maybe I already said that on a podcast, but multiple countries, multiple dates. You got a new market, or is it like you're going to go back to the same ones? You see Thailand in your future?

We're not going Thai. I think might see Philip. Yeah. You see a good friend, Philip. I hear, this is going to sound so like, those people, no. I hear that Filipinos are like the happiest people.

Really? I don't know. They're in a blue zone? Probably. Oh, is that, that's like you live forever? Live forever. That's what they say. Greece. Yeah.

You live really? Very people who just never die. We don't talk about them enough. Isn't Japan? Is Japan one? Parts. Parts of Japan? Yeah.

Parts of Greece. Maybe some Italy in there? Muconov. That's racist, dude. Sorry? It's offensive. Sorry about that. Sorry about my co-host.

Philippines is like the third most watch country in our YouTube analytics. It's like U.S. Canada and Philippines. And I think Manila, in Manila, English is pretty prominent. Just pickleball's not as popular yet. But anyway, court-wise, facility-wise, infrastructure-wise. But, yeah, I might see Philip. Definitely going to go to Malaysia. Probably going to go to Vietnam. Might pop up to China. See the old factory. Yeah? Yeah, maybe. I just pop up there. Just a quick, quick John. Hey, we're already here. Crazy, man. You're just going to live in Asia.

That is kind of part of it. It's like, all right, how do we really grow here? Should Isaac move here for six months? Find a nice Asian lady, Asian gal. And double check. On. The lady part. Oh, is that a big thing? Yeah.

Like in Vietnam, I feel like that's like kind of like a running joke or whatever. No way. A lot of lady boys out there. Really? Yeah. Okay. You see some? Who knows?

You weren't sure. I don't know what I saw. You see some androgynous? Mm-hmm. Did you? Hey. What's up, you? Hey, you.

Hey, you. There you are. You mix doubles or men's doubles? It's good. Cool. Hey, come to Gulf Shores. We keep burying the lead, you know, an hour and a half into the podcast. That's the win of the week.

Yeah. Is people want to come to Gulf Shores and guess what I do too? For an extended amount of time. Minimum age is 21 unless you're timing. That's right. Yeah. I like that rule. 20? Almost. In May.

Come home. I will be 20. Okay. By the time you're in Gulf Shores, you will be street legal. We'll see. Yeah, just... I don't know. You're going to shoot the Amish season two again? You're going to go straight from there to Gold Shores? Maybe. I don't know if I would be there still, depending on how it goes. But I'm thinking about it. There's a decent chance, I think.

Okay. They're doing a season two for sure. They are. Okay. Yeah. Why he seems so shocked? you think that look how shocked I am they're doing a season two they're doing it I don't

I'm not shocked I did talk Zach had great things to say behind your back he said I really enjoyed my time with time he talked behind your back about you huh that's nice

so I would say the same about Zach if I could something that surprised me about Zach let's talk about him real quick he'll listen to this part probably he claims

and tell me if you would agree with this for him. He claims that he would rather not work with new people as often as he would like to work with just the same people often. I talked to him about like, because he used to work at a coffee shop. Yeah. And he's like, I just didn't like, there's new people every day coming in and out.

And he's like, and I was really not looking. Like other bristas or just mean like customers? I think he meant like customers. Oh, okay. Maybe. Like, I think that's what I interpret it because he's like, but he talked about working on this Amish show. and he's like, I didn't really look forward to

because I didn't know these people. And he's like, but then I got to know him and I really enjoyed my time. Like, huh. But I thought I would, I, from the little I know about Zach, I would almost assume the opposite where he's like, it would give him life to meet these new people, but I don't know. That's super interesting to me because I know him very well

and I am also kind of surprised that he said that. Really? Yeah. And maybe I misinterpreted. Zach, let me know. Because he's really, really good at meeting new people. But I guess it doesn't mean he loves it. So, like, he's very, he's very like,

natural and like winds people over very quickly. But like, that's interesting. He had a great time though. Yeah. Yeah. I would feel that way. Like, where I'm definitely intimidated by it, but I'm,

and it's not like that stops me from like doing it. I don't know. It's kind of like those people that are very talkative, but they're not extroverts. Right. Yeah. I think that'd be one of my favorite parts if I was a priest. Who am I going to see today?

Who's going to walk in? A thousand percent. That would be the fun part. Yeah. I'm right there with you. Yeah. every day is different. There's not a standard day.

I guess I do understand like, you know, oh, I'm going to Ohio for two months. Who knows what if I don't get it like, what if these people are not at all enjoyable, be around, then I'm stuck with them for two months. I can see that. That's what makes it different than like a coffee shop. Like, which customer is going to come in for 20 minutes today?

Like that type of thing. Right. I guess it's different. My actual one of the week, just real quick, is a guy knocked on my door yesterday. I just flown back, just got back home in Can't City, and he's holding a hubcap. He's like, hey, man, my name's Logan. I live down the street.

I work at the Tesla Collision Center, and I've seen you, you know, haven't had a hubcap for a few months now, and I just snagged one, and I thought you could use it. I was like, thanks, dude. Really? That's really nice. Yeah, thank you. And he was, and he was ready to get out of here, and I was, like, wanting to talk more. He was like, you went out of your way.

Let's chat for five minutes. I don't know. That's so thoughtful. I know. I couldn't, like, I kept saying thank you, and I was like, is this enough? How do I keep saying thank you more? Did you steal this? Wait, what happened?

I didn't, I had not noticed that on your car. Just one of the hubcaps kind of like fell off and I was like, yeah, whatever, no big deal. Although it does like, not great, but also didn't really care. But I guess he was just like, oh, no, we set an extra line around and sweet. That I'd just swing by and give it to you. Now I've got to put this hubcap on. Logan's watching. Yeah, he's going to be like, hey man.

Do you need help with installing it? It's pretty simple. You got the tools for it, though? Oh, it's just plastic. Just push it in. Okay. So I should be able to figure it. You got it.

Yeah, I've done it before. How long you think is going to take? Less than 22 seconds. No, no, no, but like how long until you do it? Oh, a couple weeks? Yeah. I don't know. I'll get my license renewed.

I don't know. Yeah, that's great. That's fun. Just a guy knocking on your door holding a hubcap. What's up, man? Where is Jaredoff? I'm right here Don't miss the return

of Marvel television's Daredevil born again So what's next? I'm gonna take this city back In an all new season Now streaming only on Disney Plus They're hunting us It's time we started hunting them

I can work with them This should be tons of fun Marvel television's Daredevil Born Again Now streaming only on Disney Plus It's like crap I lose another one What have I done? My win of the week,

I think even though it's just a terrible whole journey, we have concrete in the driveway. That's the win. It's there. So that's my win. It's just when I watched, it was one of those times where it's like, I don't believe it until it's there.

And then all of a sudden it came out. It came out of the truck and went on my driveway. I thought it happened. We're doing it. That and then the mold thing, the mold coming back like positive, or, results being good. I literally like yelled in my, I got a text. I was showering. I see my phone go off

with this guy. And I was like, oh my gosh, if he tells me that we have $40,000 worth of mold to fix, I don't know what I'm going to do. And I saw it. And I just yelled probably five times. Thank you, Jesus. By myself. Like I almost cried. So maybe that should be my win of the week. It's just like that relief is just like, oh, thank you. It's like when Antonio Brown got released by the Raiders or whatever and he just goes and runs around his backyard jumps in the pool it was the exact same thing yeah so anyway that's great for my win permission to just give a few quick shoutouts yeah is that fine okay um also coli bit my win a week yeah yes yes shout out coli for documentary shout out a few people that i um somewhat briefly met at the documentary thing emma and kensi fun to talk to they were from

strafford yeah marshfield yeah they were great um clay Alex i know i met more people Sophia saw her again. That was fun. And then shout out to Will and Micah for coming into town. Staying with me for the weekend. Yeah, that's right. That was so fun. I saw them and I thought, whoa, Graydon looks a little trindier than normal. Really? One of my thought it looked so much like Grayden, yeah.

Yeah. Maybe Micah. That's fun. Yeah. Anyway, it was just like, like I didn't know them super well. I was like, sure, come stay with me. And then we had a great time. It was like, I don't know why I was ever nervous for it. It was super fun. And Cody Davis hung out with him. yesterday, played pickleball, made music. That was great. Yeha.

So, yeah. Will you, no pressure, release that music? Or is it in the vault? I'm sure it'll go somewhere. I'm, yeah, my perfectionism is like, I'll make it sound a little better, like, than it. I'll, like, do more mixing and stuff, but maybe Instagram. Do you record the video of it? We recorded some video clips.

So I think there's, like, something that could be made into an Instagram reel. I wish they sold iPhones. that were just the camera. Every once in a while, I think, I wouldn't mind recording myself having this phone call. A second recorder. Yeah, and obviously you can buy an old iPhone

or buy a knife, you know, but it's like, that's expensive. Why not just make one that's just the camera, but like also air drops? Yeah. That'd be so nice. It's a little bit of an interface. Yeah.

Like iOS interface. Yeah, that's fair. That'd be great. It's a great camera. It's like an Apple camera. Yeah. I tried to make a dumb video the other day. Garrett gives his birthday.

So I film myself with an iPad and then sent it. And of course, that's too tricky to do. I try to send it to the group chat. Upon sending a video, it removed four people from the group chat and added two other in people who were not in it. I was like, one text on an iPad does all that? That was wild. I was like, that looks so, I'm sorry.

That's annoying. I didn't do anything, though. That's funny. I do with send a video. So, man. I'm looking for my comment on the week. There's so many good comments. Just from the episode,

uploaded yesterday just from the sneeze catching episode. A lot of sponge heads in the comments. Some people saying like, give it a chance. Film yourself watching episode one. Danny Parker says like, eh, you kind of miss the boat. You're fine. Yeah, it's too late. I quote it because I watched it as a kid, but you don't need to watch it.

Yeah, there's a lot of really good stuff in here. But the one, like, it's at the very top. Pluvial event. Can I interest you in the Great Flood? Jake, I really want you to take Rachel to the Ark Encounter. I nerded out so much. I know I would nerd out too. I know I would love it.

I don't know where it's at, but I'll go see it. I know I would love that. Kentucky. Oh, yeah. Where's so pho from? Sounds right. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, it's in her backyard, basically, she said.

Yeah, I would love that. I was tizzing out just at the weather. I mean, I just get so obsessed with things, but we land at the airport. Our car's in the garage. And my car, which has like a very accurate, I've never known it to be inaccurate. The thermometer, my car says it's 40. four degrees outside. And it did.

It felt very cold in the garage. And Rachel's like, no, my phone says it's 70. And I look and like, yeah, my weather app, two different weather apps. They all say it's 70. And I was like, how is it 44?

In the out, like in the garage is not indoors. Sun, man. And it really, oh, I threw me through it. Tizzy. Rachel's like, could we just drive home? I was like,

I got to figure this out. What did you think? You think the garage just insulates temperature very well. So it had been cold for several days. I think the garage takes a while. to adjust to whatever temperature it was.

Because it was so extreme, the difference. It had been so cold for four days. It's a high of 30 freaking degrees. I heard, I heard my neighbor yelling that in his yard the other day. He was on the phone with some guy. Weird. Anyway, I would love to flood. I would love the ark.

I want to learn more. My comment of the week, Leah Bridges 20. I was drinking my Main Street Roaster's coffee. Thank you. When Brad made the joke by the baseball player's cup and I almost spit out my Main Street Roaster's coffee. I didn't see as people were saying like whatever quote you did say they're like I can't believe we get these ad reads for free That's awesome

So people really had mixed feelings about the superhero segment Like some people are like this is hilarious list of you guys Surely you guys are messing with us It's like we're not I don't think I remember messing about that part No I think we were like yeah that's that's this right I did love the part we realized that you only like the the American based Yeah, man. I don't like me they come from other places.

Yeah, dude. Peter Parker, man. I want to be able to pronounce where he's from. Ragnarock. Whatever that is. Time you got a comment. It's okay if you don't. We were talking about like knowing an actor

from the wrong thing kind of. You know, like, and Mitchell Bowser was like, oh, Steve Carrell. I loved him in Minions Four, the return of... Return of Gru. Oh, he's from, yeah,

Minion's four. Yes, dude. Oh, that guy. Mitchell Bowser, come back to Gulf Shores, dude. He's coming. Oh, he is?

Yes. Oh, great. Oh, sweet. Session one, I believe. Mitchell Bowser, if you haven't seen the documentary yet, you're in it on speech jammer. He saw it.

Okay. I think so. Yes, I'm glad he's coming back. He logged in on letterboxed. He logged it on letterbox. Did he actually? Yeah. The documentary?

Yeah. That's great. You should hate on it on letterbox. I gave it a four out of five. I said, what did I say? I said, absolute cinema minus one star for when the producer kid was on screen. Yeah, like it got kind of slow in there about the 40 minute mark until 46. The producer kid.

Talk about that skinny guy with no masculinity. It's good times. Iheart Radio came out with their podcast awards of the year, you know, like an Oscars Academy Awards thing. And Rachel was looking at it because a podcast she listens to won the best podcast. And she was like, look, they have a category for best ads. ad rates. She's like, why were you guys on there? You know, Rachel?

When are we going to get nominated? Listen, it's all, it's all just, it's a money grab. It's politics. They said, hey, FYI, we will give this to you if you give us enough money. And we said, we don't do it for the money. Or we don't do it. We don't have enough money to do that. We don't have enough ad reads to do it for the money.

What podcast won? What's her podcast? She listens to one called Gigli Squad, I think. Okay. Which is like, I think popular, but not that popular. I mean, it won it over all the big ones, you know, over Amy Pollers and You won like best best best podcast maybe best comedy I don't know yeah yeah yeah good for them Hannah burner you know that female comedian yes she was on crates paintings with us she's on a commercial

now she's on a buffalo wild wings commercial talking to a buffalo hey like Jake talked to that girl yeah they're doing that these days they're doing like influencers on commercial have you seen you know the guy that's like it's his son or it's his dad and his son from like a jillette commercial yeah yeah I recognize him I'm like, is that worth it? Because I bet some people recognize this guy, but I bet they paid more than they would prefer just a normal amateur actor for these guys.

Totally. Is it worth it? Like, is Hannah Byrner worth it? Yeah, is she moving the needle more than someone we don't know? Maybe she's killing on the podcast game, but anyway. I think that's a, I like that. Who is it, Dad and his son? Was it Costco guys or who?

No, it was, it's this guy. He's like an older, I mean, not old old, like 50, 60-year-old dad, and probably a son around. our age, maybe a little bit younger. I feel like he just records his dad. He's got a new york dad. He's got a very rough way of just like dealing with life and he's always filming him. Maybe.

Yeah. I like that. I think it's probably worth it. I feel like if someone likes the person, they'll be like, oh, they, yeah, I'll check this out. I don't know. Could be. Anyway, I feel like I've seen that more and more recently where it's like, oh, I kind

of know that person. That person's kind of famous. maybe it's a new strategy that's how we take over Asia all right cool good sewed always good sewed to gold shores
