welcome. It's Hardlord time. How are you, Bo? I'm doing just great. As am I, because it's a very
special day on the show. We have been anticipating this forever. The audience has been anticipating
this forever. So it's only natural that we make this happen as soon as possible. Our biggest
TikTok hit. Our, yeah, our biggest real ever is thanks to our very special guest, Zuma,
from cruelty, he's back.
How are you, Zuma?
Yo, I'm back.
I'm good.
I have been pretty busy for touring and shit.
You have.
We just played some shows together in California.
How are the rest of your shows?
It was awesome, especially Vancouver was amazing.
Oh, really?
Yeah, crowd had a huge energy.
Portland, Vancouver, and Seattle.
All of those were great.
Good. People turn it up for cruelty.
Selling a ton of merch for cruelty.
Before we get into the food tier list,
I want to talk about your merch printing method,
which is people don't know.
I don't know if I don't.
Dude, Zuma, when cruelty sells,
cruelty is flying through shirts.
That you know.
Because we're buying them.
But Zuma, while touring the U.S. with Sangu Sogabog,
you were just ordering shirts from like,
random printers in the country?
Yeah.
So at first, I order through Paya Press, which is in Pittsburgh, in Pennsylvania.
Because the fast show was in Pittsburgh.
Okay.
Then there was 900 shirts in total, I guess.
Then I was expecting, like, okay, we are not going to sell out this amount of shirts.
but we
um yeah we sold out of them in 10 days I guess
wow that's and that's like nine more shirts is like a lifetime amount of shirts for some
bands that's 90 shirts a show yeah yeah that's crazy holy shit yeah people are supporting
cruelty that's what that's what that means right that's what support yeah and then yeah
I have to end up ordering with I mean ordering from like
some random bringers because we have to get it with stock.
Yeah.
One color, one side, whatever blank is available.
Yeah.
You take it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, like I was like, okay, I don't mind any banks or any color.
Are people in Japan picky about what shirts are printed on?
No much, I guess.
Not much.
Because actually, we don't have that many brands like the U.S. people have.
Like, you have too many brands or shirts, you know.
Yeah.
So, like, people can pick.
Yeah.
Like, here, we just got Gilden and some two, yeah, two Japanese brands.
Then that's it.
Made in Japan?
Because all of our, all of the American brands are made in China anyway, so it doesn't even matter.
Made in Vietnam, I guess.
Okay.
There you go.
So, the reason.
So the reason Zuma's here today, other than, you know, the occasional bit of hard lore that's going to come up is Zuma is basically the third man on the show in terms of being an American fast food professional.
Connoisseur.
People are here.
They want to hear what this man has to say.
They're obsessed with his food opinions as are we.
So we want the definitive ranking out there of Zuma's entire thing.
thoughts on American fast food when touring in the States.
Zuma, what time is it in Japan right now where you are?
11 a.
Are you hungry?
Already?
I'm always hungry, book.
That's the right answer.
I eat five times in the day.
Beautiful.
Have you eaten already today?
No.
So I'm hungry.
So I can do a good ranking.
Yeah, you got to make up.
All right.
This is going to be a passionate ranking.
Let me switch.
Yeah, I have a passion now.
Okay.
All right.
Well, I mean, let's just do this in alphabetical order.
What do we think?
Zoom, are you familiar with a tier list ranking system?
I don't think so.
Okay.
So if you look at the screen, Bo, if you scroll up from my brother to there, you'll see S.
The best is at the top, right?
Okay.
Yeah, I get that.
Just like, yeah.
So what we did this was we only let ourselves put five.
in the best.
Did we do five or do we do four?
Okay.
We did,
I think we did five.
I don't know.
We'll do five for Zuma.
He's new,
you know?
Five in the best and the rest you have to spread out
amongst the other categories.
And we also did,
okay,
going from left to right.
So like the first one in B
would be technically higher on your list than the last one in B.
If that makes sense.
Like, I, at first.
Yeah.
Like, not every B is made equal.
Exactly.
Okay, okay.
Exactly.
So let's start an alphabetical order here, Zuma.
We got A&W first.
Did you eat there?
So I have something to say about A&W.
Let's hear it.
Please do.
We only got them in Okinawa in Japan.
Oh.
Because there's many base, U.S. military base.
Right.
Then the first time I tried A&W was in Okinawa as well.
Then it was amazing.
Oh.
Amazing?
Yeah, that was amazing.
Dude, this is already like groundbreaking.
Yeah.
Then second time was in somewhere in Midwest U.S. back in August.
Okay.
Sounds great.
That was trash.
So bad.
I don't know why, because I ordered the same thing, I guess.
I forgot the name, but like, it was like the one everyone's ordered.
The regular, the like all-American burger or something?
The burger, yeah.
Wait, let me go.
Here's the thing, man, that Japanese A-N-W was made with love.
We have honor, but they don't have, yeah, they don't have it, though.
No.
Midwest doesn't have order.
No, I agree.
Pro A and W, I mean.
No, I agree.
I stand by that.
So where are you putting there?
Are you putting in an F?
Oh, I ordered a Mozart burger, right?
Oh, the mozzarella burger?
Yeah, and a Papa burger.
Okay.
Also, Canadian one, it was awesome.
Canadian ones are good.
Yeah, they are.
So I was like D.
D?
D.
I think that's fair, actually.
It's a good balance because there's worse than ANW.
There is.
Yeah, if we don't have Okinawa and the Canadian ones, it's going to be like less than F.
Real, real, yeah.
That's fair.
Less than F.
Wow.
All right.
So we're going to take him.
We're going to throw him in D for now.
So that's the first move.
Oh, that's interesting.
Okay.
You can actually put it on here, there.
Cool.
The end.
It's a big show, dude.
I'm pulling out all the stops for you.
Just for you.
All right.
Arby's is next.
What do we think of Arby, Zuma?
I don't think I have ever tried that one.
Okay.
I think you'd like.
I see the sign all time, but like, I didn't think this is a food chain.
No, I think that you are, you would, you would do Arby's.
You got, they got the meats is the things.
That is the thing.
Google game.
What's the name of the, the beef and cheddar, Zuma, look up the beef and cheddar.
That's the one.
Oh, it's a bagger price.
Yeah, kind of.
There's a good one, like a sandwich with tons of pastrami.
Roast beef, I guess.
Yeah, it's roast beef.
Yeah, yeah, it could be.
This is American as fuck.
It is.
It's very married.
Oh, my God.
So next time you come back, we'll go to A&W.
Or we'll go to Arby's.
They also claimed at one time to have Wagyu burgers.
Oh, my God.
That's fake.
Yeah, of course it's fake.
They can carry Wagyu in the bagger price.
No.
That's right.
It's crazy.
You see right through them.
So let's put them in never had.
Never had.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
See, I think this list is actually.
is actually going to be really clean.
It is.
And kind of to give you a really good
objective view on these foods.
It is, man.
This is real.
This is no, like,
we've had a lifetime of bias to be.
Right.
So true.
This is the realest take
on American fast food you're ever going to get.
Uh-huh fresh, Zuma.
I am not biased.
No.
You're a real guy.
You're a real motherfucker.
Hey.
I don't know what's the,
what's next.
Baja fresh.
What do we have that?
I don't think so.
Yeah, you don't need that.
It's Mexican.
Yeah, you don't need it.
We would have, we put it low, I'm sure.
I think it was in F for us.
Yeah, it's.
I can judge with pictures.
Oh, my God.
I'm Googling now.
Okay.
Looks bad.
That's some crap.
It is.
It is bad.
Yeah, I've never had, but like, it could be ranked on D.
If I, if I've ever had.
Let's put it in never had.
Yeah.
keep an objective here.
We're keeping it so fair.
Zuma, up next is Blimpy.
We don't fuck with Blimpy.
Blimpy?
I wish I never had.
I don't think I would have to try.
Fuck.
You don't need to go to Blumpy.
No.
Put it in F, Bo.
All right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No matter if he's had it,
keep Blimpie in it.
Yeah, it just doesn't matter.
Ugh.
We got a banger up next.
Yeah.
I have to revisit.
I really have to revisit.
Dude, your name is in it.
I know.
I know.
Tell me about it.
That's that.
Oh, Zuma. It's fried chicken.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
I should have a, I should have a try when I was up there.
You really should have been?
Are they everywhere?
No, they're mostly in the south and the Midwest, right?
South, I don't think they're in the Midwest at all.
I think it's like all east.
Dude, it kicks ass.
I got to revisit.
But you've never had it, so we got to stay objective.
We got to stay objective.
Yeah, unfortunately.
Yeah.
Let's keep it.
It's incredible.
Zuma, have you had Boston Market?
I don't think so.
Dude, Beau, I tried to try and close.
I know. I'm so sorry for you, dude.
It's gone.
So sorry.
I think it's my fault.
You think so?
I think I stopped going and it's my fault.
You let them down.
Zuma, I can only describe this as like,
it's food that you can only ever get like at home,
like at a family gathering for a holiday.
But for some reason,
some genius in like the 90s decided,
what if we had like chicken and stuffing and mashed,
potatoes and all the shit all the time all the time
and it's so good
very American oh yeah no this
this looks like British food
I could see that because it's gravy
potatoes peas yeah but it's very
but imagine
yeah imagine that with salt with salt and seasoning
and like it's good oh yeah
I would love to try this one yeah yeah it looks pretty good
you're gonna love it but put it in never had
Of course. We're being fair.
We got some fucking heat coming up.
All right, here we go.
Oh, I would love, I'm dying for this.
I'm ready.
Zuma, up next.
Burger King.
I like Burger King.
Yeah.
But I don't say I love it.
I think that's the entire country of America.
That's the, that's the universal concern.
I like it, but.
Good fry, good fry.
Really good fry.
I like the long chicken.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hong chicken goes.
So, yeah, I put it on
C there. I think that's fair.
That's very fair. I think that's very fair.
What the king deserves.
What do you get there?
The crown is wilted.
Colin, if you got to go to Burger King, what's your order?
A double whopper.
And a chicken fry.
Mm.
Chicken fry.
You have the chicken fry, Zuma?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's good shit.
I'm fried.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dude, you and Manny both do the fucking hell yeah.
Maybe.
No, no, you do.
I have no idea.
Well, I'll be like, you're fucking crazy, man.
And he just goes, hell yeah.
All right, up next, Juma, we got one of your favorites.
Oh.
Oh, my God.
This is the best one.
Is this your favorite, Zuma?
Yeah, put them on the best right now.
Right fucking number.
We've got our very first.
entering in the best category, raising canes.
You just earned quite a few cruelty fans with that answer, I bet.
You really did.
People love canes.
Yeah, I have tried three times when I was in the U.S. in August.
Good chicken, like good fries.
Good fries.
Good sauce.
Kind of crappy, but like good fries.
The fries are a little soggy for a crinkle cut.
Oh, yeah.
The Shake Shack Cristle Cut is better.
Shake shot.
Good shit.
We're getting there.
So the Keynes is in the best.
This is huge.
Yeah.
That's big.
That's high.
It's very high.
Carl's Jr.
Did you go there, Zuma?
Oh, yeah.
I can decide it between C and D.
Okay.
Between C, so maybe we put it...
I think D.
Top of D?
If you're in a parking lot, would you go to A&W or Carl's?
That's the thing.
Under A and W
Under.
Interesting.
Colin,
you kind of ride for Carl's,
don't you?
I like Carl.
It's like
too American.
I mean,
that's what they say about me,
you know?
They're like seasoning
is too American for me.
Oh,
but the milk,
did you have one of the milkshakes?
Not yet.
They have real,
real ice cream milkshakes.
Yeah, like,
what do they call it?
Hand spun.
fun versus like the powder McDonald's shake.
Right, right.
Isn't it funny comment?
We never talk about that, but that's,
McDonald's really pulled the wool over everyone's eyes with their milkshakes.
Dude, that's, I mean, did you, did you see the founder of the movie?
I've, I'll,
yes, but poor, like, I didn't watch it enough.
That's one of the pivotal scenes is when the shake guy is like,
I can, I can get these made for you for no, no money.
But they're not going to be ice cream.
And he's like, I don't give a shit, do it.
So you see that movie, Zuma?
The founder?
No.
No.
It's about the guy who first franchise McDonald's.
And he like, he like changed the weather.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The real motherfucker.
He stole it from the guy from the McDonald's brothers.
All right.
Checkers is up next.
What do we think of checkers?
I don't think I have ever tried.
Okay.
You don't like.
I know the next.
What kind of place is it?
It's burgers, but their whole thing is that the fries are good.
Yeah, you have too many burgers, man.
That's our favorite shit.
Yeah, I have enough.
I get it, you know.
I'm excited to hear what you think is the best burger.
We'll get there, though, right?
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
Up next, Zuma, I have to imagine you're a big fan of this one.
He seems to like chicken.
Chick-fil-A.
Which one is this?
The Chick-fil-A.
That's Chick-fil-A.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
The chicken price, right?
Oh, yeah.
Chicken sandwich.
Yeah, yeah.
Waffle fries.
Coca-Cola.
It's going to be a bee.
Okay.
Totally fair.
I think that's, I mean, we had it in B as well.
Yeah, I think we did.
Have you been there a few times?
Just once.
I forgot where.
Yeah.
That's another one where you got to get the milkshake.
It's unbelievable.
It is really good.
Here's the thing about Chick-fil-A, Zuma, is every, most of the time.
Honestly, 99 times out of 100, it's consistently good.
And that's what's like, that's what I love about it is I'm rarely disappointed.
Chick-fil-A employees possess an Okinawa, like, amount of honor, you know?
For the chicken.
Okinawa-esque is how the Chick-fil-A employees pride themselves.
Really?
Think about that next time you go.
Yeah, yeah.
Wait, I'm going to memorize which place had a good milkshake.
Okay. Carl's Jr. and Chicago, you can just text me, man.
All right. Chipotle is up next. What do we think of Chipotle?
Oh, yeah. It's good.
Yeah. It's bad. This is not, I don't am expecting for America.
It's Mexican.
It's Mexican, yeah. This is Tex-Mex.
Yeah, I mean, yeah, yeah, but like, it's too, I don't know how to explain.
It's too hype.
Like this is like for people who have money
Wow
Interesting
Like too healthy
You know
They're trying to add
Bezegro's and some other good stuff
Them
Mexican food is healthy
Is what they're trying to like stand for
Yeah I mean it definitely appeals to like the
Office workers lunch break
Yes
I hate those people
You hate, yeah, you're punk, dude
You're a Japanese punk
You're real Japanese punk
But I like
I enjoy Chbore
When I had
Yeah, I had it twice I guess
Okay
It was for a long time
Zuma
It was like
The place
That a band with meat eaters,
vegans and vegetarians
Could all eat
And believe it or not
It's relatively inexpensive
For what you get
I think they recently
Just raised the prices
though Colin
Really
Yeah
They just like
Uped everything
By a couple
box.
I told you.
Yeah.
Now, Zuma,
is there anything
on the list so far
that Manny or
Sena would disagree with?
Mani would
rank A&W
on the best.
He's sick.
In the head, this guy.
He's crazy.
Yeah.
That's really good.
But other than that, Sena agrees with you?
I think so.
Yeah.
She might love,
She might love Chipotle more than me.
Okay.
Ah.
But just that's it.
So where do you put Chipotle?
I don't remember because.
Where do you put it on here?
Where do you want it?
Oh, okay, okay.
Yeah, yeah.
It's going to be on C.
Okay.
Under her thing or over?
Over.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
No, no.
Wait.
Under.
Okay.
Because it's sometimes it's hard to compare two different things.
Another thing.
I agree.
And another thing, too, is within the last couple of years, it's gotten significantly worse in quality, which sucks.
It sucks.
Yeah.
It's a bummer.
Yeah.
I used to really ride for Chipotle, but.
You did, man.
Up until, like, really recently.
Quality went down and the prices went up.
Come on.
And Sweet green took over.
Oh, my God.
If Sweet Green was on here, dude.
Yeah.
Anyway, we don't need to worry about sweet green.
Zoom is not concerned with sweet.
We got fried chicken to talk about it.
But Church is chicken.
You're concerned with that, Zuma?
No, I haven't ever told us.
Oh, man.
It's pretty good.
Is it good?
Dude, there are, I know people, like, I know that in the fried chicken world,
Popeyes is considered, like, really genuinely good, and I agree.
But I know people who will contest and say that churches is better.
Oh, man.
That's crazy.
That's like the, that's like the Domino's Pizza Hut,
Coke and Pepsi kind of thing.
I would go Popeye's, bow jangles,
slightly under and then church
is like down here. Okay.
Okay. Is it everywhere?
Yeah. It's everywhere.
Yeah. Yeah. Cool.
Yeah, next time I'm gonna try that.
Next time. We'll put them in Neverhead.
We'll hit everything you missed.
Yeah, we're gonna take a screenshot of the Never Had
and book a tour.
Do you have another tour booked?
Yeah, we're gonna do
South in January.
Oh.
From Arizona to Texas.
Okay.
I've never been to Arizona, so like, I'm expecting something good.
And it won't be as hot in January.
It's true.
The show will be amazing.
The show will be good.
Oh, yeah.
Texas will be incredible for cruelty, too.
Yes.
That's actually very true.
So if you're in Arizona and Texas, look out for cruelty in January.
January.
They're going to be eating good.
Please.
Up next is cookout.
Did you go?
Oh, yeah.
Twice, I guess.
Thoughts?
That's mid.
How do you feel about that, Colin?
Not good.
I get it.
It's the experience that I like and the possibility is what I like about cookout.
Okay.
What did you get?
What was on your tray?
Let me check the menu.
In the meantime, will you refresh everyone what Alex cookout order is?
Alex Cookout order is two trays, all corn dogs.
Every time.
How many corn dogs is that?
I think it's six.
Two trays, all dogs.
Two trays, all corn.
They go, okay.
Six corn down.
Drop six corn.
Six corn, please.
Yeah, I think I just got a gizzadier,
and Cajun chicken.
And fry fries and, yeah, just drink.
Dude, you got to get the big double burger,
a corn dog.
and fry, another big double burger, another corn dog,
and the cassidia was a good call.
No shake?
I don't think I have tried a shake.
Dude, they have like 70 flavors.
What the fuck?
Oh my God, they have.
Peach?
Yeah.
Pineapple.
You're not a shake guy, Zuma?
I am.
Kind of like...
Well, what do you say about desserts?
About American dessert?
Yeah, you say, I don't eat that because I'm an adult.
right?
Mm-hmm.
I love shakes,
but,
like,
they're back for my stomach.
Oh,
yeah,
yeah.
So during the tour,
I don't want to get
fucked up
before my set.
You shoot yourself
all the time?
Yeah.
So I should,
let me say.
I should,
so mostly I ship
five times in a day.
Once for every meal.
Yeah.
And then
three of those
fiber diarrhea.
Oh, fucking grind, man.
Gore-Rine.
Wow.
So that's why I care about my stomach.
Okay, so no shakes because of the Gorg-Grind diarrhea that you go through three times a day.
So, like, after the show, after each show, I can try milkshake, but, like, most of these places are closed after the show.
Yeah.
So true.
So that's why I can really have a milkshake on tour.
Like, the one I had with, uh, where was it?
The colon, we went to China, right?
No, no, no, no.
Oh, Fred 662.
The one we went to after the day.
Fred 662.
That was good, right?
Yeah.
That was vegan.
Yeah, I couldn't believe it was vegan one.
That's right.
I get that one.
Crazy.
Oh, yeah.
Dude, there's a vegan diner in Chicago called the Chicago Diner that has a vegan
milkshake that I still maintain is one of the best desserts I've ever had.
Delicious.
Delicious.
Hell yeah.
You see, you just gave me a live, Zuma.
Hell yeah.
You did.
Hell yeah.
All right.
Where are we putting cookout in the ranking?
See?
Okay.
Now, where?
See under the, under.
Wow.
Okay.
This is different than ours.
If he had Culvers, I'll be so shocked.
Colvers, did you have, did you have that?
No, what's this?
It's another burger place.
Burger.
Bugger, bugger.
Oh, my God.
But actually, look at their menu, Zuma, they got...
You are sick. You guys are sick.
You guys are insane.
How about this?
They recently switched to Coca-Cola.
They do they have Coke now.
They dropped Pepsi, and they said, no, no.
That's a good question.
Zuma, how do you feel about Pepsi versus Coca-Cola?
Only a few places in Japan have Pepsi.
Yeah, it's a perfect place.
That's why.
Mostly people only know about Coca-Cola.
Right.
And, yeah, I prefer Coca-Cola.
That's right.
It's a goddamn right.
You do it.
Good answer, my man.
How are they?
I mean, how are Pepsi doing over there?
You know, so here's the thing.
There's a reason.
Pepsi's in so many restaurants here.
Pepsi, if Pepsi is in your restaurant or your fast food place,
they come, they send a service tech to switch out the,
filters change the syrups and update the lines yeah
Coca-Cola knows what they're worth so they just send the bags and say good luck
bitch figure it out enjoy your fucking soda okay okay so Pepsi yeah
Pepsi's cheaper it's cheaper no they coke has the better product so Pepsi has to offer a
bigger service you know correct cool cool very cool so let's put Culvers and never had
yeah so that means
Pepsi might be better for restaurants.
Exactly.
Yes, but a lot of people hear that a place has Pepsi and don't go there.
There are places that I would rather not go to.
Like Taco Bell, I love Taco Bell.
If they didn't have Baja Blast, I would rarely go.
You guys are too picky, man.
I know.
We just got options.
We got them all.
We're big boys, Zuma.
We're big American boys.
We eat good.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's fair.
You get it.
So is it not possible to both having both, like Pepsi and Coca-Cola.
No, you can't have both.
I swear I've been to like rest stops that'll have both in a fountain machine.
But not a restaurant, no.
But I don't think that's, yeah, that's not like, that's different.
It's like a contract thing.
Yes.
And then sometimes you'll also get like Chick-fil-A has, like Dr. Pepper can be in either.
Dr. Pepper is its own company.
It's part of the Snapple.
Dr. Pepper Snapple is one company.
Right.
So it can be on Pepsi machines, which it often is,
or it can also be in Coke machines.
And Chick-Fleigh has diet Dr. Pepper,
which has become just...
Interesting.
Oh, do I love it.
To go to.
All right.
Del Taco is next, Zuma.
Oh.
What do you think of that?
Also, man, loves Dr. Pepper so much.
Good.
That's my man.
That's my boy.
That's my guy.
I hate it, though.
You hate it?
I hate it.
Did it taste like medicine?
Yeah.
Do you know Anning tofu?
What is that?
It's like Chinese dessert.
No, I've never had it.
Okay.
So Japanese says Dr. Pepper tastes like medicine or an indif.
I see.
So.
I understand.
Do you think the same thing about root beer, Zuma, that it tastes like medicine?
That's what money loves so much as well.
But I hate it too.
Yeah.
A lot of non-Americans.
He has two different, like, past objective.
So he loves A&W and Dr. Pepper.
Yes.
What a weird guy, man.
And Ruby.
Because they have Ruby, right?
Oh, yeah.
They have the role.
I don't think we haven't clarified that Manny is the drummer of cruelty.
And he's this little fucking crazy guy.
He's a crazy guy.
He's crazy.
There's sick thoughts going on in there, right?
He's on Twitter, 18 hours a day.
What is he doing on that?
Just checking some other people's.
I don't know.
He's an inside guy, okay?
Yeah.
Is that true?
Half true.
He's obsessed with anime stuff.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, Otaku, man.
Like berserk and stuff or the hornies?
No, no, no.
More like the disgusting stuff.
This is the best episode ever of the show.
Disgusting stuff.
Okay, Del Taco.
What do we think?
So, yeah.
I like, I like Del Taco.
They got a lot of options.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Where are we putting it?
B.
Ooh, strong.
Above or below Chick-fil-A?
Hello.
Okay.
That's fair.
That's right where I put it, I think.
I think so.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, Zuma.
Oh, dude.
Oh, buddy.
Big one.
Oh, my God.
Big one.
Oh, also, wait, for Del Taco.
Yeah.
The first time was when we were touring West Coast for the first time back in 2021,
2020, with operation.
Right.
Is that when you recorded the pit?
Which made before, yeah, before recording the songs.
And that means there was my dad.
Your dad?
My daddy was there.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean Taylor.
Oh, yes.
You're the general, the general of culture.
Yeah.
So it was on the way back to Los Angeles after our Sacramento show.
Right.
He was driving, but he was like, I'm cool.
I'm cool.
That sounds just like.
Can I hit del taco?
Yeah.
And then we had del taco.
And while we were eating del taco, he showed up with some, like, reflection jacket for, like, construction.
Like a high-vis jacket?
Because he didn't have a jacket.
Okay, so I know exactly what Del Taco you're talking about.
On the five from the Bay to L.A.
Yeah.
Where it's like half gas station, half Del Taco.
On the right?
Yeah, he told me that's like everyone's go-to.
Every time we stop at that.
On the way home, we stop at the talk.
I think we met you guys on the way to Gilman, too.
Just weeks ago, we were right there.
Yeah.
That's a good deal.
Then why he had a jacket was because he had COVID.
Oh, he did.
He had a what?
Yeah.
Wow.
COVID.
Oh.
What a scumbag.
Super spreader.
I drove the whole drive to back to Los Angeles.
Oh, shit.
Was that your first time driving in America?
No.
I drove always, but like, yeah.
because he was there.
Mm-hmm.
He loves driving.
He's sick.
He's crazy.
He's crazy, right?
Who's crazier, Taylor or Mani?
Taylor.
Whoa.
He's insane.
Why is he to calm like that?
Up next is Denny's.
Yes.
Tell me about that.
You guys love Denny's, Zuma.
Tell us.
Tell me about Denny.
So there's a couple of reasons.
You guys might know we have Deniz in Japan.
I did know that, yeah.
But what we have is so different from what you have.
I think it's just licensed stuff.
Oh.
So we're using the Denny's name, but it's not Dennis.
It's almost like Japanese food restaurant.
What?
Like a katsu, katsu bowl, ramen.
Dude, that sounds awesome.
They have ramen at the Denny's?
It's not bad.
Yeah.
Like, and what else?
Yeah, spaghetti.
Like everything, like general restaurant.
When we were going to eat together after the Hollywood show,
and I was like, let's go to this diner.
They have breakfast food.
You told me, I don't know if I can eat breakfast for dinner, like culturally, man.
Like, I don't know if I can do it.
No, no one does here.
No.
Oh, wow.
Who the fuck wants to eat breakfast at night?
I did it today.
It's crazy, man.
It just did it.
You guys are insane.
Oh, it's the best, dude.
That's what we do.
I can't believe.
Well, what do you get from Denny Zuma?
What's your order?
Steak.
Steak.
And steak.
Oh, I had a salmon one time.
Salmon.
Denny salmon?
Yeah, like, we're assuming.
Dude, you got to be careful.
They'll put you in prison for ordering the dany salmon.
Prison or the hospital.
One of the two.
Yeah, obviously, I had a diarrhea after that.
Okay, so that was one of the three.
A lot of diarrhea is in the day?
Of the day.
Like, it's very cool for me to have steak up late night, like 2 a.m. 3 a.m.
It's not possible in Japan.
But it's not as good as Japanese beef.
Like Wagyu, you mean?
Yeah.
Yeah, of course.
But we think those are two different things.
Yeah, I get that. I get that.
Like Wagyu has too much fat in it.
It does.
Well, where are we ranking Denny's?
Obviously the best man.
What else?
Zuma, if only you toward America,
it's over canes, bro.
Over Cains.
I wish you got to try the Hobbit menu, Zuma.
Oh.
You wouldn't believe it.
Zuma, this is going to shock people.
Yeah, this is crazy.
This is going to shock Americans.
I love this.
All right.
Because you guys are biased.
Yes, we are.
It's more like you guys are brainwashed.
Oh.
Okay.
Is that what it is?
I know truth.
This is fucking incredible.
Okay.
Domino's Zuma.
What do we think?
Oh, yeah.
For me, it's going to be B.
Oh, that's fucking high.
I'm very pro-dominals.
Bewing those two.
Between the two.
Between?
You got it.
I'm very pro-dominos,
but that's higher than I was expecting.
Yeah, Domino's rise.
Delicious.
You like pizza, Zuma?
Yeah.
You ever have the Domino's in Japan where they put the one kilogram of cheese on the, on the pizza?
Yeah.
Is that true?
Is that real?
Holy shit.
It's just too much.
It looks amazing.
Yeah, you can imagine before eating.
I Google it sometimes.
I watch people eat it just to envision what it would be like.
Muckbang.
Will you do that?
Will you film a one kilogram domino's cheese pizza muck bang for me?
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm down.
Okay.
I got to see it.
Thank you.
Gary Queen is next.
So, this is another, my memory about diarrhea.
So I got, I just have tried them in Vancouver two weeks ago.
Okay.
Well, I just had ice cream.
Pretty good.
with
it's like a soft cream
with like
it's coated by something
the blizzard sugar I guess
oh no no no no no
he's talking about the dip
he's talking about the dip
yeah yeah yeah like deep that deep
the dip cone dude
dude
the chocolate dip
it was
no it was cotton candy
oh cotton candy
yeah they have different flavors sometimes
I like the strawberry one
or the cherry one
it was awesome
It was awesome?
Yeah.
Yeah.
You're sick in the head.
But it was too big.
I should have older like small.
Yeah.
The small, the small dairy queen cone is big enough for me.
Yeah.
And that's saying something.
I would a lush and then I fucking died.
Yeah.
Dude, the swirl is good.
All the blizzards are good.
The food is trash, but it's like, what, what are you expecting?
You're not going there for food.
You know?
Japanese don't want.
Like, leave anything.
Like, we finish.
Yeah.
If, if, if, if, if, even if it's bad.
Wow.
So I finished it.
Then, oh my God.
Crazy diarrhea.
He was green, man.
Who is not brown?
Oh, no.
So where are we ranking dairy queen?
With that diarrhea in mind.
See.
It's still better than Carl's Jr.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay, cool.
All right.
El Pollo Loco is up next.
Did you go there?
So,
makes complete,
right?
Correct.
The crazy chicken.
I think I went there,
but I don't remember how it was.
We'll put it in and never had,
though.
Yeah.
Yeah,
I've realized I've never had it.
Dude,
it's pretty good.
That's what it seems,
that seems to be the consensus.
It's pretty good.
Yeah.
And it's,
it had a recent like Domino's-esque,
upgrade recipe improvement.
A glam, glad, glass.
Yeah, they glowed up.
The Yasified.
For sure. Yeah.
Are you Googling El Pollo Loco, Zuma?
Yeah.
This is so good.
Firehouse subs is next.
Did you go there?
Is it sandwich?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's like toasted sandwiches.
I don't think so.
I'm going to Google again.
It sucks, dude.
It sucks.
Gass, you're absolutely right.
It sucks.
It sucks.
It sucks.
It sucks.
Only thing worse is Blimpy.
And I've never been there.
So put it in never had for Brother Zuma.
Yeah.
Yeah, it looks dumb.
It's dumb.
All right.
Up next, this is a big, this is going to be a big debate.
Yeah, this is big.
Are you ready for this?
Oh, five guys.
Yeah, what do we think?
Yeah.
I like it.
You like it.
Mm-hmm.
Do you think it's worth the price?
Do you remember how expensive it is?
No, no, no, no.
Good, good answer.
It's billions.
But.
millions of yen.
No way.
But yeah, I remember it was expensive.
Yeah.
For quality.
Yeah.
I don't think that it's a bad burger.
I just don't think it's worth what it costs.
And I think there's better options for less.
The only thing that bothers me about it is the comparison to in and out.
Yes.
Which is ridiculous.
It's a criminal offense to compare it the two.
Exactly.
Zuma, you get it.
Yeah, that's criminal.
Yeah.
So where would you rank it?
See, right next to Bargar King.
Okay, wow.
In front of it or behind it?
Behind.
Yeah, that's going to send some people up a wall for sure.
I fully agree.
I do too.
I mean, I'll tell you what, it's a coin flip any given day.
If there's a parking lot with a Burger King and a five guys,
just depends on if I'm feeling frugal or not, you know.
But, dude, no matter how I can be a quadillionaire, you know.
They both have Coke.
Yeah.
And if I, I would rather get a chicken fry and a fry over anything on the five guys menu.
Yeah, that's fair.
Yeah.
Okay, up next is IHop.
They also make breakfast at night.
How do you feel about that?
It's bad.
Yes.
I have never tried that one before.
I don't know what IHop is, but like, if they serve breakfast at night, they start.
Well, Denny's serves breakfast at night.
Other than Denny's.
So, IHaw.
Denny's have an exception.
Right. IHOP is the international house of pancakes.
It is often compared to Denny's, except it's not 24 hours and it's way more expensive.
So it's really not.
It's much better than that.
Oh, yeah.
You think so?
I grew up in an IHop household, though.
They don't have a grand slam, brother.
They got a, I don't know, I don't care.
They got stuff for each toast.
There's probably like a fucking basis loaded or some shit, you know?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So they are pancake places.
They're a pancake plate.
They're just another diner.
You know?
You never been?
And say,
Santa loved them.
Santa loved it.
Yeah, she loves, I mean, she loves pancakes,
Jenner.
She's a woman of class and tastes.
She gets it, you know?
She understands.
So you should listen to her.
Like me?
Like, yeah, well.
All right, so put it in never had,
though.
Yeah, and now here we go.
Let's talk about In and Out Burger, Zuma.
What did?
Yeah, I love them.
Yes, you did.
Tell me your thoughts.
I think their bargains should be more like season.
Oh, come on, man.
Seasoned.
Or like sauce?
I don't know.
There's sauce on.
Get more sauce.
So people add sauce by their, like, by their own choice.
So, okay.
So here's the thing.
This is another pitfall of you not traveling with me this whole time is in and out is all
about finding your order.
Oh, okay.
Like, we are always like, I eat what we got.
Ah.
As it is.
Okay.
I understand that.
Without doing anything.
I get that.
That's how fine dining and, like, real restaurants should be.
But in and out, brother.
You like mustard?
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
So there's a variation of the burger called mustard fried,
where they slather the patties up in mustard before they grill.
So they're dripping mustard juice.
It's really good
It's really good
Okay, okay
And then Cha, you like spicy food?
If that's not too much, yeah
You don't like spicy food?
I like, but like
I can do too much like
Mexican, real Mexican food and shit
I get that
I feel like a lot like chili oil
And all that like the chili paste and stuff
They use in Japanese food
It's pretty spicy
Pretty fucking hot
So I think he'd be fine with chopped chilies
I think you could
So the chopped chilies
Are the other thing they've got
That you add to the burger
That just fully
changes everything. That was the final puzzle piece for me. That made me go, oh, this is the perfect
fast food burger. This is it. Amen, brother. You did it. You did it. You told me. You know,
I'm a man of the people. I like to show, I like to turn the lights on where they're off in the
world. Yeah. So where would you rank in and out, Zuma? So.
Be.
B. Where?
Be over Domna.
But like next time I have to try that way, you talk me.
You come with me.
You come with, you come with brother, Mr. brother, your brother, Colin.
Because or your cousin.
Yeah, Mr. Cousin.
The other thing, Zuma is.
Yeah.
The double double.
Uncle.
The double double from in and out.
Is it $6, Colin?
$5.95?
Something cheap.
It's six bucks.
What is that?
600 yen?
No, no, no.
Now it's like 900.
That's like 900.
It's great.
Like when you compare how good it is and how fresh the ingredients are and then you see how cheap it is compared to five guys.
How cheap it is even compared to McDonald's.
I see.
No question.
All right, Zuma.
Did you go to Jack in the box?
Oh my God.
So bad.
I could see that.
Yeah, so bad.
Yeah, I could see that.
I like Jack in the box
I went there
two times I guess
it's more
it was more like I have
I had to went there
yeah
because everything else was closed
that's the worst
some of the worst
of the worst to me
the tacos dude
yeah
I used to I liked it in high school
because of the one thing
we've talked about this before
yeah
the steak cheddar chabata
yeah
that thing was dynamite
and then they took it away
and I never went back
all right
where were we putting Jack in the box
F.
Yeah, but over Blimpy, obviously.
Yeah, over Blimpy for sure.
Have you met our friend, Jersey Mike, Zuma?
No.
No, you never went to Jersey Mike's?
He's a great guy.
No.
Oh, dude, he's a, a homie.
He's a gangster.
Hell of a guy.
He's awesome.
Is it a man's name?
Yeah, it's a man.
Yeah, his name is Jersey Mike.
He makes sandwiches all over the country.
He's got this cherry pepper relish shit.
Oh.
Okay.
Well, we'll slap him and never had, and you got to put him in the must try category.
Yeah, yeah, must try.
Yep.
Jersey.
That's right.
The Italian sandwich.
How about his peer?
Oh, okay, okay.
Yeah, it looks good.
It is good.
It is good.
And I don't generally love subs very much, but that one is fucking good.
As is the next one.
Okay.
Yes, I agree.
Jimmy Johns.
Did you go there?
Oh.
God, you hate, you like sandwiches, Emma?
I like, I like sandwich.
Okay.
I'm just, I'm just not good at finding good ones.
Oh, that made me sad, man.
I would have helped you out.
I had you.
Yeah.
You should.
You will.
You scroll it up a little.
You guys should have a set me list.
You're right.
You're right.
You're right.
That's on me, 110%.
Up next is Jollybee.
Oh, yeah.
You like it?
Yeah, because I'm Asian, man.
What do you get from there?
Uh, chicken.
Really?
Yeah, chicken and spaghetti is what I always get.
So crazy. I got to go. I got to find one.
Do they have it in Japan?
Most, no, no, no.
So the first time was, first time for me was in the Manila, Philippines.
So real one.
I bet that was fucking good.
And then I was sick of burgers at the time.
So I chose chicken and, uh,
spaghetti. Damn. Damn. Dude, there's a Jollybee downtown Chicago.
Now, is chicken and spaghetti a crazy combination to you? Yeah. So, like, it looked funny. Yeah. So that's why I chose
that combo. You were being an entertainer. You're like, look at me. Well, what kind of chicken is it?
Yeah, that tastes it good, man. Wow. That's cool. Is it like fried chicken or is it like chicken
parm? Like what? It was fried chicken. The banana ketchup. Do you get that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You like it?
I'm scared of it.
I'm scared of it.
No, no, no.
It's not bad, but it's, yeah.
It was interesting for ever.
Okay.
Interesting.
Where do we rank Jollybee here?
C over Bagu K.
Wow.
That's good.
I'm happy for Jollybee.
I want to win.
But I have never tried Joliebe in the U.S.
That's okay.
Yeah.
Understood.
We might have different like stuff.
So you record the one kilogram
Domino's cheese pizza video for me.
I'll do a Jolly Bee Muckbang for you.
We were talking about fried chicken places
and we didn't even mention KFC.
Yeah, what are you...
KFC in Japan fucking lit, dude.
Oh my God.
No, no, no, no, no.
KFC in America is the best.
Oh, my God.
The kernel.
Wow.
Oh, fuck.
Yeah, last time I forgot to mention about KFC, man.
So you love KFC.
Yeah.
What's your order?
But I don't like Japanese ones.
Wow.
They have it in Europe too.
It's always surprising.
UK can't fucking believe KFC.
Yeah, straight off.
Kai-FSI.
So.
So they sound like.
Yeah.
That was my impression of a British guy saying KFC.
One more time.
KFC.
KFC.
So what do you get at KFC here?
So I will get a,
Oh, it's harmful.
You're doing British guy?
Order,
give us your order as a British guy.
So I just ordered two chickens.
What else?
Two piece of chickens and mush potatoes.
That's what they say.
With gravy sauce on it.
That was good.
That was really good.
I know.
Oh, so also KFC in Thailand is amazing.
In Thailand?
Thailand, yeah, Bangkok.
Yeah.
Wow.
Okay.
I try it.
Because they have their own seasoning.
Oh, I see.
Some Asian spices.
I see.
I see.
Sold.
So it was tasty.
Yeah.
Where does it rank in the list?
Oh, now remember, Zuma, we're only doing five in the best.
Yeah.
So for now, I believe in the best.
Yeah, we can reassess later.
Before or after Cains?
and the canes.
Okay.
Wow.
That is the highest regards the colonel has ever gotten since he became a colonel.
The K and KFC is going to stand for cruelty after this.
They're going to be reaching out.
KFC, yes.
Cruelty fried chicken.
Okay.
Up next, Zuma, Little Caesars.
Oh, my God.
Tell me.
So I like, I like it.
But what I said was kind of marketing thing.
You were entertaining.
I see.
Okay.
Because the camera's turned off.
People don't know this.
The cameras stopped rolling.
You looked at me and you said, I'm an entertainer.
Yeah.
For more fun.
Yeah, exactly.
But you do like it.
But yeah, I still like it.
But like, yeah, I still like it.
But like, it's not like the best, like I said.
Okay.
It's not the best.
So.
You were just doing a, you were doing a bit as we said.
Yeah.
So.
But still it's going to be on C, Anabagagin.
Under Burger King.
Over five guys.
That's awesome.
That's amazing.
Yeah, that's amazing.
I agree with the whole C category, other than Cookout.
They're cheap, right?
Yeah, very cheap.
Very cheap.
That's the point.
The cheapest.
Dude, there was this, there was this hardcore kid, Jesse, in the Valley for a while who worked at Little Caesars.
Yeah.
And he would, like, hook people up with Little Seasers.
users, which is like the funniest thing to hook people up with, maybe.
Yeah, you're giving away 20 bucks.
Like, y'all, I'll get you five bucks off this.
It's almost free, huh?
Yeah.
That is free.
That is exactly right.
There's a good era, though, dude.
We were eating goods.
I saved dozens of dollars.
Oh, yeah.
Okay, Long John Silver is up next.
Zuma, I assume being from Japan, you eat plenty of seafood.
Yeah.
I believe Long John's.
Silver's is an offense, an attack on seafood as a cuisine.
Okay.
Do you agree?
I don't think I've ever tried this.
Keep it that way.
Yeah, I can debate that much.
I mean, that's good.
Save yourself.
Save your life.
Don't eat Long John's.
Oh, don't even look it up, dude.
No, he's Googling it.
No.
He's going to be, what's a hush puppy?
Let me check, bro.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This shouldn't be counted as seafood, man.
I agree.
Yeah, I agree.
Looks like just like frozen stuff from like Walmart or anywhere.
Yeah, that's not my sea.
You know, that's a different sea than.
It's what KFC is, but like they tried to do it in like a fish way.
And it's just terrible.
It's KFF.
And we don't stand for it.
It's bad.
Yeah.
So that's never had.
That's never had.
will.
Um, Zuma, there's a really big one up next.
And I, I'm, I'm honestly very curious how you feel.
Okay.
About McDonald's.
McDonald's.
Um, I love McDonald's.
Oh, man.
Oh, man.
Oh.
I was.
So in the States.
Yeah.
They are too expensive now.
Yes.
Agreed.
That quality.
You're correct.
You are correct.
In Japan, it's too cheap.
Okay.
So, like, we can get meal in a, uh,
six bucks or something.
Oh.
So, dude, the prices are like twice, I guess.
The prices are out of control.
Out of control.
Something needs to happen.
The government needs to step in.
100%.
Dude,
the half brown and a McGrittle cost the same thing.
Oh, yeah.
You remember, you know what's so funny.
Yeah, yeah.
I was talking about...
For breakfast, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was talking about this with James the other day when we were still on tour.
When we were younger, breakfast at McDonald's was like expensive.
You know?
But it was always, I love McDonald's breakfast, obviously.
And then the dinner stuff was normal price.
Now the dinner stuff is so much more expensive.
And I don't think the breakfast prices have really changed like overall.
Other than the hash brown being like, other than the hash brown.
I'm saying you get a number one, which is an egg McMuffin.
And it's like eight bucks.
Eight bucks.
Yeah.
You know, yeah.
The big Mac meal large is like $14.
You and I just said the two same prices because we are so in tuned with.
how insane these prices are.
We're on that app, dude.
Dude, love that app.
Yeah, I had a breakfast.
Did you hear about this from Anthony?
No.
Tell me about it.
Because I added tomatoes to chicken macgrittles.
Oh.
Chicken McGrittles with tomato?
Tomato?
I did, yeah.
Because I didn't expect that grotto is sweet.
Like sweet.
Yeah, it's a pancake.
It's a pancake.
Yeah, I didn't know that.
So like, I was like I just order a tomato to just regular chicken sandwich.
I see, I see.
Just one bite?
I was like, oh, my God, this is so bad.
Yeah.
Did you take the tomato off?
This fucking guy.
This guy's out of his mind.
Just added tomatoes in the griddle.
Can you believe this?
You know what's really good, though?
I just had a bad choice.
Okay.
So where do we put McDonald's?
B.
Where?
Between dominoes and their taco.
What do you think?
That hurts me, Zuma.
It hurts, but I mean, look at where in and out is, you know.
Yeah.
Yeah, but dude, KFC.
KFC and S is crazy.
Um, yeah.
This is a mistake.
This is chaos.
Moes is up next.
I can't, I don't expect you to have gone to Moes.
I've never been there.
Good.
It's like Chipotle label worse.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, oh, so.
kind of Mexican food.
Yeah.
And everything is,
all the names are Seinfeld related?
Is that true?
Yeah.
I never knew that.
Really weird.
Weird.
Yeah.
Okay.
Noodles and company.
Did you go there?
No,
I don't think so.
Oh my God.
This is cultural appropriation, man.
I mean,
it literally.
Don't say fucking noodle.
They,
it's not yours, man.
Dude,
it's noodles from the whole world.
The world.
Every kind of noodle.
Italy, Asia, Wisconsin.
So they'll have like ramen, fetichini, spaghetti, et cetera.
Mac and cheese.
Okay.
But like the sign looks like a ramen, you know?
Yeah.
They know what they're doing.
Yeah, they know what they're doing.
It's good, though.
It is.
What's the name again?
Noodles and company.
He's good.
Looks good, but it looks like funny.
Yeah, yeah.
It is funny.
They have Coke.
They are.
all noodles, but they're all different.
Yes.
So.
Yes.
Legit good.
Just.
Yes.
So let's put it in Never Had.
And we've got a big one right now.
This is one of the biggest ones on here.
Well, we got a guy coming up.
We do.
Yeah.
But anyway.
What do you think about Panda Express?
I like Panda.
Yes.
My man.
Like, I don't count this as a Chinese food.
No.
No.
Neither do we.
We know.
We know.
It's, yeah, it's too Americanized.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, it's like, yeah, it's like Taco Bell is to Mexican food.
It was invented in Pasadena, California, you know?
God bless them.
Really?
Yes.
Is it from California, huh?
Pasadena.
And then the first express was Glendale, California.
Ah.
I ate at that one damn near every day.
What's your panda order?
So, orange chicken.
That's right.
See?
International.
Um, mongruum pork
And broccoli beef
That's three
Sometimes
No, no, I mean like what's my
I'm talking about my go too
Yeah, yeah
Like shrimp, I forgot the name
Oh, it's like a fire
Right? Oh, that one's good
Isn't there like a firecracker one too?
Do you guys have maple tofu as well?
I don't know
I don't think you guys have
No, no
It's a
No
Like minced beef with like
Chop tofu
Beef and tofu
Kind of beef and tofu
And then
It's like
It's like
Kind of soup
But it's not
Because they have like
Chinese gravy
Ooh
You got my gravy
Where would you rank it
Zuma
Yeah
It's really good
But Panan in the US
had a worse quality
than we have.
You have panda in Japan?
Yeah.
Oh, shit, I didn't know.
God, I would love to go there.
Oh, my God.
They got orange chicken and the Japanese panda.
Yeah.
Oh, shit.
I'm going.
So that's why, yeah, I think, I mean,
yeah, I think Mapo Tofu is exclusive
to Japan or, like, some Asian countries.
So where do you rank?
So I love panda.
But it's,
getting tough.
Yep.
Isn't it?
C.
Over Jeremy.
Over.
Wow.
Okay.
I believe we had it in S, Bo.
I think we did.
Or was it top of B?
It may have been top of B just because you and I both like legitimately love it.
We love it.
Now, what is the opposite?
The opposite of love.
Oh, God.
Pardon this interruption.
Bo, I have a really important question for you.
Mm-hmm.
Have you taken?
in your AG1 today?
Every day.
Every single day.
Every single day.
I took it.
I want to say for 30 days of the tour,
I probably took it 28 days.
There's 30 of those packets in a box.
Yeah.
So it's perfect.
There's two left.
I had two left because I think there were some overnight drive.
You know,
and let me tell you,
I felt great.
Bless us for this AG1 we have received
and that you can all receive
Athletic Greens.com.
slash heartblower. Ag1 is a foundational nutritional supplement. If you implement it into your everyday routine,
you will feel better. I take it alongside with my protein and like creatine, all in one shot,
boom, start the day. Get out of there. I've had a debilitating sinus infection for over a month
now, and I've barely noticed because I'm otherwise in such good health. Wow. So thank you,
AG1. I credit AG1 for keeping my system together because that's got nothing to do with them.
That's all me, man.
But yeah, if you order AG1 now, you will get five free travel packs, which I know you got five days of traveling coming up.
You need them.
It's perfect.
They're like the size of a credit card.
You'll also get a year's supply of the vitamin D and K drops.

You believe it?
It's unbelievable.
You will feel better.
You will look better.
Don't ask me how.
Just how it works.
It's also Manscape Time.

The opposite of love, hate.
Panera bread, does you go there?
I think so.
Zuma.
Wait, wait, wait.
It was created in the fires of Mount Doom for the Dark Lord Soron, dude.
If you've never been there, you need to promise me.
You'll never go to Panera bread.
I think I just ordered coffee on chicken noodles.
The lemonade just killed a girl here.
Yeah, yeah, there's so much caffeine.
She died.
It has, it has much.
More caffeine than like a five-shot latte.
Yeah.
It's crazy.
It's like 400 million of caffeine per, per lemonade.
I will say that the soup can be okay.
But it's as okay as like bagged soup can be.
Like it doesn't, you know.
Yeah, no.
I remember it was kind of expensive for the size.
Yes.
Have you ever eaten food at a hospital, Zuma?
Here's the thing, dude.
I bet you Japanese hospital food is fucking.
gangster. Tusha. You're absolutely
right. Yeah, I have
never, I guess. What kind of food they got
in Japanese hospitals?
Just regular
Japanese food, I guess, maybe.
Like natto, nacho, rice,
yeah, curry rice
and the ramen, yeah.
I believe those are okay.
It depends on like how
good the hospital itself is.
Yeah, of course.
Do you check like the Yelp review of a hospital
before you go there?
No.
Okay.
You just go?
Yeah.
And the best hospital food here is about as good as any given Panera.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Now I remember that one I had was like nearby the hospital.
Yeah.
It was in Louisville, Kentucky.
There you go.
Louisville Panera.
Dark.
Oh, dark.
Dark.
So, indeed.
Yes.
Okay.
Under cows.
Yes.
Okay.
Okay.
Up next is a good friend of ours, Papa John.
Oh, yeah.
I love their garlic sauce and I love their wings too.
Oh, it's great, dude.
Their garlic sauce is great and I don't typically like shit like that.
But it's vegan, so it's just oil.
It's so good.
So you're a Papa John's guy.
I remember that, Zuma.
Oh, I remember.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You guys ate there a lot?
No, just twice.
But it was huge for me because the Papa Jones.
last time was like right after landing in the US.
Oh.
So, you know, I was, all of us on the plane for 15 hours or something.
So you never been that hungry in your whole life.
Yeah.
And then what we found first was Papa Jones.
And then it looked like pizza place.
And then we were like, oh, let's go.
And then we had a good pizza and good wings.
I distinctly remember Santa telling
I was like Santa we're going to go eat here
Do you want to eat here?
And she was like, no, I'm going to wait for Papa Johns
That's fun
So that's what you guys are all about
Where are you ranking Papa Johns
The best so far
Number one?
I'm serious man
Yeah
This is breaking
Fucking news, dude
Over Denny's?
No, no, no
I mean
For now, I'm the KFC
Okay, FC, okay.
Okay.
Wow.
Truly shocking.
S-tier going.
Papa has never been that regarded, not even in his hometown of Kentucky.
That's a fact.
Yeah.
Wow.
What's next, Bo?
I can't tell.
PDQ.
I don't think we knew what this was.
Nah, get him out of here.
Put him I never have.
We don't know with him.
And then Penn Station, each East Coast subs.
I've never been there.
Yeah.
What's that?
Chicken place?
It looks like a chicken place.
Probably.
Yeah.
Either that or it's run by a chicken
I don't think that chicken is food certified
No there's no way
So it hasn't been in place
Up next
The Hut
Pizza Hut
I don't really like Pizza Hut
Yeah
I prefer I prefer Domino's
Yes
I'm from a Pizza Hut family
Personally
I was Domino's
We were Pizza Hut kids
That's what dad ordered
Okay
I would say
It should be
On D
Okay. D. Above.
Under cows.
Okay, yeah, over Panera. That's right.
This is devastating placement to me as a Pizza Hut,
a lifelong fan.
But this is a wake-up call for Pizza Hut to do better.
Yeah, they're watching.
Colin, didn't we figure out that like your family was Pizza Hut and Coke?
Yeah.
And mine was Domino's and Pepsi.
My dad ordered, my dad loved Pepsi.
It's like the Capulance and the Montague's.
In the Mots, cues.
But then did you have Super Nintendo or Sega?
Sega.
See, we had Super Nintendo.
That's interesting.
Opposites attract.
What can you do?
So Dominoes, they have Pepsi?
Yeah.
They do.
They all do.
They all do, yeah.
Okay.
In Japan, they do Coca-Cola.
Really?
It's a perfect place.
Yeah.
Well, dude, Domino's might...
Pepsi might own Dominoes?
Yeah.
Because, dude, it'll often be like KFC,
Taco Bell Long John Silver's or like a Domino's like in a trio you know.
Dude, so that's, I read a crazy thing that said Pepsi Strait did research and found it would be like
cheaper to buy those friends, those companies than to like pay the soda contracts on them long term.
So Domino's Pepsi Strap owns several of those companies.
Unbelievable.
gangster. I'm not going to lie. That's fucking, that's
Tony Spanano-esque. Yeah.
I want to just buy the whole fucking gang.
That's pretty good, dude.
Thank you, man. Up next is
a really big one, Zuma.
Oh, my God. It's Popeyes.
Talk to me. Obviously,
this is the best.
So you can't believe
Popeyes. Is fried chicken your favorite food,
Zuma? Yeah.
Nice. So, like, within
American food. Yeah, sure.
Fried chicken is the best.
I mean, fresh chicken, yeah, those are more
than burgers for me.
What do you think about Korean fried chicken?
Not good.
Not good?
Interesting.
Dude, I think it's better than...
I prefer American way.
Interesting.
I agree, Colin.
I think it's better.
I think Korean fried chicken is the king.
Yeah.
Because I think those are something new for you.
Yes.
Yes.
That's probably what it is.
It's recent stuff, I guess.
Dude, this place I go to called Bbb.cue chicken here.
Look at the price of 16 wings.
How much is it for the, for the listeners?
$38 for 16 wings.
Holy shit.
That's crack prices.
That might be more.
And I pay it like a good boy.
Sick in the head.
All right, Zuma.
Yeah, good.
good boy. What's your Popeye's order?
The best.
What do you get there? Oh, over then it.
Wow. Wow.
So this is potentially
potentially the final
best pending the rest of this list.
Could be, yeah.
Tell me about the first time you ate Popeyes.
Who was
in the middle of nowhere.
Yeah, sounds about right.
We were dying.
we needed
food
especially chicken
yeah you needed chicken
and then I found
Popeyes
and then
I was like
Popeye
so
I was like
vegetable
yeah
so I
we should skip
yeah
but like
when my
our car
was like
passing the Popeye's
I put
Popeye's there
I saw
some people
eating chickens
inside the building
I was like, oh my God, this is not vegetable price.
This is chicken price.
Then I told Mani he was saying, I was like,
town left and they get there.
We got chickens.
And you couldn't believe it.
It was unbelievable.
Good moment.
And you've had it again.
You've had Popaz again?
I think we went there four times during the tour with Sangu Suogabod.
Was it as good every time?
Yeah.
Wow.
I love
I'm obsessed with Popeyes, man.
Wow.
So Popeyes, if you're listening,
you're doing absolutely unbelievable.
Dude, the black intenders?
They're pretty fucking good.
They're fucking unbelievable.
They hate you when you order them.
Yeah, yeah.
They hate it.
They hate making them.
But they're so good.
Too complicated?
They're made to order every time.
Yeah, they're made to order.
Okay, okay.
So what's that at a fast food place?
Made to order like healthy grilled chicken is fucking insane.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, like, yeah.
What I felt was, like, it's fresh for fast food.
Yeah, it really is.
Like, very, like, very good.
Did you try the blackened ranch sauce?
Yeah, it was awesome.
Lord, that's good shit.
You don't eat ranch.
He's fucked up.
Up next, though, is a very special place for Beau.
It is. Zuma, I'm so sure you've never been to Portillo's.
No.
Yeah, and that's okay.
Portillos.
Portillos.
It's a Chicago-specific and neighboring area kind of place.
There's some in California and Arizona.
Yeah, I think I would like this.
I think you would.
When you come to Chicago, we will, James and I will take you and you will love it.
It's legit incredible.
Good shake, too.
Great shake.
Malt.
Hell yeah.
God.
I love a malt.
Do you prefer a malt, Beau?
It just depends.
If I can go somewhere and get a vanilla milkshake with the metal thing,
I know that I love it.
But if I don't know how they make it,
I'll go with the malt just because I know I love the malt.
When I get the silver thing.
Very interesting.
What about you?
You know what had a maltzuma?
What's that?
It's a milkshake with little ball,
little chocolate balls thrown in.
I don't think I would love it.
I think it was malted,
the one that you took a bite of?
Oh, really?
That had malt in it.
Yeah.
Yeah, I would say I love it.
I think it's,
just powder, Colin. I don't think it's
actually... I just didn't know what I
had. It is powder, yeah.
Yeah. He loved it.
Colin, you know what place had a great
like one of the best milkshakes?
Fuddruckers, dude. Oh my God.
Boy, did it ever.
Zoom, I wish so badly you got to try Fudrackers.
They're pretty much all gone.
Okay.
Really? I will.
Yeah.
What's next on there, Bo?
Pop belly.
Fresh.
You go there?
Pop Billy?
I don't think so.
What kind of place?
It's a,
it's another,
it's like that firehouse
toasted subs place.
It's just,
okay.
Nothing too great.
No.
Good milkshake,
I will say.
They got a good milkshake.
Sure.
But otherwise garbage.
Otherwise garbage.
Yeah.
All right.
Oh,
one of the worst of the worst coming up.
So funny that you don't like Yudoba.
It's garbage,
dude.
It's better than Moes.
Stag.
In the same,
in the same.
I would rather,
I would eat Arby's over Mo's and Kudoba all day, any day.
Did you go to Kudoba, Zuma?
I don't think so.
It's a lot like Chipotle, a lot like that.
Another Mexican stuff?
Yeah.
Yeah.
But crap.
The crap.
But bad, like bad, yeah.
Kudoba.
Yeah, you don't need.
Kudoba.
You don't need to worry about it.
Quiznows.
Did you go there?
I don't think you went to Ques.
Maybe no.
Probably not.
I couldn't even tell you where one is in Chicago.
There's a bunch in California, but most of them closed down.
Yeah.
They had a really annoying commercial when we were young.
They really did, dude.
That's what it sounded like.
We love the more.
It's like Italian food?
No, it's just a sandwich.
It's another toasted subplace.
Same thing.
Okay.
Yeah.
Now I hope to God, Zuma.
What?
I know you love chicken.
I know you love fried chicken.
But please tell me you've never had Roy Rogers.
Yeah, fortunately, I've never.
All right
Put it and never had it and move on
Yeah
And off we go
Fuck Roy Rogers
Yeah he's going
Down here
Oh my favorite New York slice
Sabaro
You ever have that?
No it's a pizza
Yeah it's like mall pizza
But they also have like
They have like pastas and bake ziti and shit
It's
I
I don't hate it
The stromboli is pretty good
Yeah, I don't hate it, dude.
It's, it's not good, but...
But he's never had.
He's never had it.
That's a great answer.
I'll never have, yeah.
All right, next is Schlachis.
This man ain't never had no damn schlachis.
Yeah, no way, no way.
But now...
What's that?
It's like a deli, a delicatessen place.
It's kind of like Subway.
Oh.
I think I like it.
You had it?
Because I like deli stuff.
Okay.
Basically.
Yeah.
But up next is very important.
Yeah, this is a big one.
Oh.
Shake Shack, baby.
Zuma, talk to me.
I like Shakeshack.
Yes.
But it's too expensive.
It is expensive, but it's a premium product.
It is.
It's not punk.
It's not punk.
It's not punk.
Shake Shack is not punk.
You think In and Out is punk?
Sort of.
I think price-wise it is, but it's like Christian punk.
It is Christian.
Yeah, it's like face-down records.
type punk, you know?
Where Shake Shack is just
Warner Bros. Yeah, just straight
up.
It tastes. It tastes really
good. Really good, dude.
Good shake. Also, I... Good fries.
So, we have Shake Shack in Japan
as well. I could see that.
Then, people
full of Shake Shack in Japan
trash.
Really? I hate
those people. Western
wannabe. Okay, so there are suits.
They're like business guys.
And also like they want to be Americans or Europeans.
Yeah.
I mean,
we're obsessed with Western culture so much.
Just be Japanese, you know?
Yeah, man, crazy.
That's what I always say.
Yeah.
Yeah, eating like, I am fucking cool.
You know?
I know exactly what you mean.
Where does it go, Zuma?
Yeah, where we put shakes?
Yeah, it tastes so good for me.
It does.
Is it as good in Japan?
Because it was really bad in the UK.
Oh, yeah.
Really?
Yeah, we hated it.
It was actively bad.
Yeah, Japan and the US ones pretty much same for me.
Okay.
So.
Good to know.
It's tough.
Yeah.
Because considering the price and stuff.
So.
You got to pull out a loan from Granny.
B.
Anna Del Taco.
Okay.
Under Del Taco.
Oh, interesting.
Under Del Taco.
Interesting.
The U.S. stock market is going to crash.
Crumbling.
The economy is going to collapse.
Sheets is next.
You ever been there?
Just one time.
It's a gas station.
It's a gas station.
Did you eat?
Yeah.
What did you get?
I prefer Wawa.
Oh, my man.
My man, we'll get to Wawa.
Where are we putting sheets?
Yeah, I forgot what I had.
It was in summer in general.
That sounds right.
I got a hot dog kind of stuff.
Where do you rank it?
Send it to me.
I can't say it because I almost forgot how it tasted.
Okay.
So it's like never kind of never had.
Okay.
So we're gonna put it enough.
I don't want to judge without having like...
Okay.
I'll put it in never had.
I get it.
Yeah.
But that doesn't bode well for its taste.
What about Skyline chili?
Fucking dog shit, bullshit trash.
shit trash. No, I've never
good. Whatever you guys. You like them?
No. I haven't had it in a long time.
I really hated it
the first time. Describe what it is for Zuma.
Okay, so it's chili based, it's like a
chili dog.
But the chili recipe has chocolate
and cinnamon in it.
What the fuck is it? And then
it's served
on just plain
noodles.
Yeah, that too.
Just pasta.
Spaghetti noodles.
With chocolate cinnamon chili on it.
Ugh.
Who the fuck is gonna love them?
Ohio.
People from Ohio.
Ohio?
Oh my God.
Say,
I bet you Seg was Sugabod.
Probably loves Skyline Chili.
They love it.
Did I ever tell
you guys about like
how I felt about Ohio?
No.
No.
Every single person
who attended the show in
Ohio.
looks like they're from Ohio.
Everyone looks the same.
It's funny because we,
the country has a bias
against Ohio, just kind of because
and it's funny
to hear you affirm that.
Ohio is like,
but it's home of some of the greatest
hardcore ever. I don't.
Yeah. Yeah.
That's the show's awesome. What else do they have
other than rocking, you know?
Yeah, just rock and roll.
Ohio, no,
only knows how to rock.
And that's fucking badass.
It is.
Yeah.
You're not wrong.
Frank three gun, dude.
You know?
Yeah, yeah.
Human burnus.
The human thermos, dude.
Sonic, you ever been there?
No.
What's that?
That's dog shit.
It's a place where people go,
oh, but you got to get the cheesecake bites.
It's like, all right.
You got the apple, cinnamon, slushy.
Don't get food.
Exactly.
Yeah, shut up.
It's crap, Zuma.
It's crap.
You'll never go to Sonic.
Okay, he promised.
All right, steak and shake.
You ever go there?
I don't think.
That's burger.
Good name, though.
It is a good.
Two of my favorites.
Steak and shake.
And because the burgers are like smashed steak burgers.
They're good.
I kind of ride for steak and shake.
It's pretty good.
I think it's pretty good.
And it's really cheap.
Yeah.
Very cheap.
And it's open.
Is it 24 hours?
When I was a kid, it was.
And that was like when I had it.
Yeah.
All right.
Slapin, I never had it, and let's talk about this piece of shit up next.
All right. Hold on.
Zoom and tell you, tell me how you feel about Subway.
So it is funny, but they are good in Japan.
I believe that.
The vegetables are good here.
I mean, like, yeah, the stuff might be fresh in Japan.
So that's why I like Japanese subway.
What about American?
Yeah, what about Americans?
It was.
It shouldn't be served to people.
Yes.
It is criminal.
Thank you.
I would feel bad feeding it to a dog.
That would be animals.
That would be animal.
I mean, onions in sandwich there.
Oh, the red onions?
Discussed.
I don't know.
They're using old vegetables and shit.
They are.
Yeah, yeah.
It's the worst place in America.
Zuma, that was my first job was working at a subway.
I was a sandwich artist at a subway.
And even when I worked there and I got free food, I fucking hated it.
Even if you get for free?
For free.
It was still just like, well, I guess I'm eating this.
You still don't like it.
Yeah, it was terrible.
That's what they call the employees there.
Did you know that, Zuma?
Sandwich artists?
That's funny.
So where do you rank it?
Yes.
I'm going to.
put it over Blimpy just because of the bit, but
yeah, yeah, yeah.
Fuck Blimpy forever.
All right, well, yeah, subway sucks.
You heard it here. I guess
it's good in Japan. We'll see.
We'll see. Yeah, don't go there.
But in America, it's the worst of the worst.
Zuma, I have, we have
had drives before on tour
where we stopped at like a loves
and the only food that was
like being prepared was
a subway at the gas station. We're in the middle of
nowhere. And I have, instead of
It happens. It happened to us twice, I guess.
And instead of eating, I just went hungry.
I won't do it.
Okay.
Won't do it.
Garbage.
Swenson's is next?
We don't know what that is, right?
I don't know what that is.
Away with Yee.
Get out of here.
And let's talk about Taco Bell, Zuma.
What do you think?
I don't like Taco Bell.
Oh, my.
Really?
Bad?
It's bad.
What did you get?
I tried almost everything.
Come on, man.
Really?
You don't like Baja Blast?
Oh, I like Baja Blas.
I didn't say about drinks, man.
I was just talking about food.
Okay, so the food is bad, but you like Baja Blast?
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
But I love to buy Baja Braz.
Like gas station or no anywhere else.
Okay.
I don't want to buy it.
I don't want to hit.
The Taco Bell is another place where you kind of got a customer.
it to find your thing. Agreed. Agreed. Oh yeah. So again, you should have you should have asked me what to get.
Dude, Colin, I went to a Taco Bell. The only Taco Bell in my neighborhood the other night,
walked in, ordered our food at the kiosk and we're just standing. Security Guard came up and was like,
hey, just so you guys know, it's going to be about a 45 minute wait. What? And I just got a refund.
Yeah, that's insane. Why? Oh, okay. I'll leave.
That's some Manchester UK type
Straight up, dude
So Zuma, where would we put Taco Bell?
It's the
Wow
Where
No, and the ANW
This is that is truly sad
That is painful
I am changing the whole economics
You really are man
This is gonna hurt some people
Taco ball's gonna see this
Taco Cabana
We don't know what the fuck that is
Get that out of here.
I've had it.
It's in Texas.
It's bad.
Torchies tacos.
Zuma never been there.
No.
Oh.
How did you choose these prices?
It was already made.
So something that's not on here is crispy, crunchy chicken.
We've never even heard of that.
And you love it, right?
Oh, it's a gas station.
It was a gas station chicken.
Okay.
Yeah, I've never heard of it.
Yeah, it's cool.
Zuma, have you been to Waffle House?
Oh, my God.
Don't show me Waffle House again.
You hated it?
I hate.
You didn't get breakfast, though.
You got like a burger.
Oh, yeah.
That's the problem.
I don't want to eat breakfast.
Well, you've got to put your cultural bias aside.
Yeah.
And just be American like in your heart is and get a damn waffle at night.
Maybe.
Next time I will try.
There you go.
That's a start.
That's what I like to hear.
It's incredible.
It's good at night.
Other than that, it's terrible.
Where does it go, Zuma?
So for now, because I don't know, the raffles.
It's going to be in D.
Okay.
Okay.
Good for them.
It'll be going to be F.
Oh.
More over a jack in the box.
Okay.
Okay.
I mean, you've only had a burger and it's still,
the Waffle House burger is still better than Jack in the Box.
It was actually
Philly cheese steak sandwich
Oh my God
You're an animal
Oh my God
Yeah I wouldn't do that
I shouldn't I shouldn't have
I should have
Huge one up next dude
Yep
Wow wow
I witnessed the first your first time
What do you have
Wawa
What did you remember
I got a
I forgot which one
Which sandwich
But it was sandwich
I think it was panini.
It was a pinnini.
I customized like, yeah, American way, I guess.
Yeah, that's right.
It was, yeah, it was my thing.
And I got a chicken noodle soup as well.
And that was good, too, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Say, they loved it too.
She said it was so good.
The donuts are good.
Yeah.
The tea, the happy half.
The drink, the iced tea lemonade?
Tea was awesome.
Oh.
The iced tea was crazy.
Crazy good.
You get it.
You understand.
you get it, man.
Yeah.
Where's it going?
Where do you rank it?
Okay, on top of the beat.
Wow.
Wow.
Strong showing for Wala.
Northeast.
Holy cow.
American, northeast United States, are you seeing this?
They just believe this.
Over in and out.
Right below.
We are for Northeast, man.
Yeah.
Cruelty from Pennsylvania.
Yeah.
That's not cool.
What's next on?
Oh, Wendy's.
Wendy's.
My mother's namesake.
You know, Wendy?
Yeah, I've been there five-ish times.
Yes.
What do you think?
It's difficult to write.
Because every time it tastes different.
Oh.
The quality control is bad, I guess.
Yeah, it is.
That's what that means.
So sometimes so good.
Yeah.
Somehow.
It's sometimes so, so bad.
Mm.
You get the frosting?
Yeah.
No, it looks so bad.
It's good. It's good. It's good.
It's bad for health.
Yeah, duh.
The color is crazy.
The color is crazy.
Oh, my God.
I get a double double.
You know they waited for Dave Thomas to die to do a vanilla one?
Did they?
Yeah.
He didn't want to.
He didn't want it.
Huh.
I do a Dave's double.
It's my order.
Classic.
Classic.
Also, the barbecue sauce is fucking awesome.
You seem like a Baconator guy.
Zuma.
I see what?
You seem like a Baconator guy. That's what you get there.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah. That's your order. I bet.
Where do you rank Wendy's?
D.
Huh. Where?
Over and of you.
Wow.
This is going to be a huge upset to some people.
Wendy's. I just said you were from the Northeast.
They might take that back now that you don't like Wendy's.
Up next.
Zuma, this is a very important conversation.
You're on your way to Texas soon.
You've got to be careful.
Waterburger is next.
Tell us your thoughts on Waterberger.
So as a native Texan, I would say I cannot stand for Waterberg.
Okay.
You can't stand for Waterberger?
It's crazy.
Wow.
So bad.
Wow.
I could say this because I'm from Texas.
Right, right.
Yes, of course.
If I'm from any other, any Asian.
countries, I wouldn't say this.
Because I am from
Texas. I can say this.
That is a fact. That's why we ask you.
You start talking about Waterberg
in Texas, your accent comes out. I can hear
it. You have a natural
Texas accent, right? Could you show us the
Texas accent? No, I don't
know. What's the difference? You don't know the Texas
accent, man, the southern accent?
Oh, the kind of stuff.
Yeah, you got that. Zuma from Crulton
man, is on hard law. Can you believe?
I'm from Texas
I'm from Corpus Christi, Texas
I'm from whatever I do is trash
I don't know
I did my best
That was perfect
That was the last text I ever heard
Where do we put it
Partner
F
Where
And a subway
Wow
Wow
You're in here folks
Oh wow
So Texas
Texas people
should bring me
some better food
when we were out there
when we will be out there
there it is
there I will guess this year
there it is
you heard it
that's the word
that the word is law now
that's binding
next up
white castle
do you have white castles in it
this is trash
wow
I could see it
yeah it's a hard sell
they shouldn't take
any single money
from people
for those
crappy people
Bougars.
It's insane.
It is insane. But it's cheap.
It's so cheap.
Cheap because it's small as fuck.
But it's $20.
It's like $5 for like 20 burgers.
Yeah.
Or something insane.
Yeah.
I like the onions.
The onions are good.
Where would you put it, Zuma?
F.
Where?
Two Fs in a row, dude.
And a jack in the box.
Under over subway.
My man.
That's good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's good.
That's fair.
Yeah.
Weir-s-s-l up next.
You ever been there?
Brody King's favorite.
He loves it.
No, no.
Is it good?
I still haven't been.
I've been meeting to try.
Are you a big hot dog guy?
Not really.
I doubt you'll like it.
Okay.
Never been.
Wings over.
There's no way you've been there.
I've never been there.
You ain't been there.
A lot of Northeast on here.
All right.
This is a big one.
Yeah.
What's that?
Wingstop.
Wing stop.
Oh my God.
I love wings stop.
Yeah, dude.
You had me worried.
Zuma, you get it, man.
You just get it.
Yeah.
You understand.
Colin, you tried the new honey,
saracros sauce?
No, I heard it's good.
I heard it's good, too.
What do you get?
What did you get at Wingstop?
You got the spicy Korean, right?
Yeah, and lemon pepper.
Oh, you didn't get the original.
Hot? Oh.
And that one's right. So those three
might go to. Good.
Dude, the original hot is unreal.
It's perfect. Did you get ranch?
Yes.
This fucking guy. And I both
order fries and the
like vegetables. The corn.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I do both.
Dude, Lana loves the corn.
Really? I hate corn.
Me too. Me too.
There's corn and so much.
Why do they put corn and ramen?
What's up with that?
So that's an American thing.
That's what I'm saying.
It's nasty.
There's no place for that kind of crunch in that dish.
It don't make sense.
What bamboo shoots are in there.
It doesn't make sense.
They don't come from a cop, you know?
They come from a shoot.
So where's where are we putting?
Yeah, where are we putting wings up?
Obviously, the best.
Okay.
So this is where it gets complicated.
This is where it gets interesting here, Zoom.
We got to take one out.
It's not six, huh?
Nope, it's not six.
It's actually.
It's not six.
Now it's six, right?
Yeah.
This is the only thing that we had in our top five, Colin.
Yes, it is.
This is the only thing we have in common is that we had Wingstop in our, our best.
Yeah.
So first of all, before we finish, tell us where Zaxby is going.
Yeah.
Have you been there?
Oh, Saks.
Yeah.
What did you think?
It's like a little less better one of Cains, right?
It looks almost same.
But that's a little less better of your favorite thing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So it must be pretty hot.
I would put in B.
Okay.
Where?
But win in and out and dominance.
Okay.
Holy shit.
That's the highest any person on Earth.
has ever put Zagsby.
Yeah, yeah.
All right, well, let's scroll up
and take a look at what he's done.
This also was crazy.
The Zaxby sauce is good.
So we need to figure out this top five, yeah.
We've got to get one out of there, Zuma.
That's the rules.
Rules are the rules.
Which one goes?
It is.
You got Popeyes, Denny's, Keynes, Kains, KFC,
Papa John's, and Wingstop,
all in the best, and one has to go.
So much chicken.
So much chicken.
You got the guy can't get enough chicken.
He loves chicken.
Okay.
So put KFC down.
Okay.
Wow.
Actually, it should be less than Wawa.
Wow.
Wow.
See, the truth comes out.
Here we go.
Yeah, keep going.
Walk me through.
And I should, yeah, I'm going to still have to do a little bit.
Let's do it.
Let's figure this out.
So windstop should be on little top.
The absolute top?
Yeah, number one.
Oh, my God.
You're the man.
You get it.
You understand.
Then he's up next.
You don't get it, Zuma.
Okay, so the best section is completed.
Why?
Beautiful.
It's amazing.
It's crazy.
I just love the idea that was like, what was Zuma's top five?
Wingstop.
Okay.
Denny's.
What?
Pop-off.
Okay. Cain. All right. Papa John. What? What? Yeah.
All right. So tell us about the B section. It's Wawa, KFC, Chick-fil-A, in and out.
Zaxpies, Dominoes, McDonald's, Del Taco, and Shake Shack. Is that the right order?
In and out. Uh, and then, Wawa.
Okay. That's, yeah. I agree with that.
Few.
Whew. And, and fuck.
and McDonald's and in and now.
Yeah, dude.
Yes.
Now you're speaking hard lore.
Yeah, now we get it.
Is that it for B?
I'm Shake Shack.
I feel like you like Shake Chack a little more than that.
Yeah, but it's expensive.
That is important to consider.
I guess.
Yeah.
It's not only for taste.
Yeah.
Value.
So, Del Taco.
should be before Zaxby's.
Over or under?
Over, yeah.
I respect that immensely.
Big respect.
Yeah.
Big respect.
What else?
Okay.
B is completed.
Okay.
So B is Wawa in and out.
McDonald's.
KFC, Chick-fil-A,
Del Taco,
Zaxby's,
Domino's, Shake, Shack.
Solid.
Yeah.
Now, C, we got
Panda, Jollybee,
Burger King,
Little Caesars,
five guys,
Chipole,
cookout dairy queen?
She's kind of crazy, getting crazy.
She's wild, dude.
Seas little nuts.
Five guys and then dairy queen.
Under, wow.
Okay.
Wow, that's my man.
Love it.
Love it.
Love it.
Cook out over little seasons.
Okay, that works.
That's shocking.
I'm with you.
But, I mean, you're damn mere famous.
for being Little Caesar's biggest fan.
Because
you're entertaining.
Because they don't
want to find me, you're right.
You're right. That's on them.
I am waiting for
You're waiting for them.
Yeah, the ball is in their
court. That's right.
Little Caesar, you could be the top of this list
if you pay up.
Of course, man.
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay, so C is now competed.
Okay, looks good.
Yeah, it does.
D, we have Wendy's, A&W, Taco Bell, Carl's Jr., Pizza Hut, Panera.
Some Taco Bay, some Taco Bell folks are getting upset, I guess.
It might be.
There are people who fucking love Taco Bell.
I think A&W and Taco Bell should be switched.
Okay.
Yeah, I think that's...
That's a big time relief for a guy like me.
I'll tell you that.
I'll tell you what.
Because Taco Bell, I think, was in R.B., Colin.
No?
Yeah, it was high.
It was high.
And you're letting this Okinawa A&W location really cloud your judgment, I think.
Yeah.
Can I actually put Dairy Queen on the...
Yes.
And the Wendy's?
Absolutely.
So it should, yeah, go to D.
That's a good call.
Then Taco Bo and the dairy queen should be switched.
Yes.
Respect.
Very good.
That's good work there.
Diligent.
And a pizza hat over A&W.
That's great work.
That's even better work.
Yeah, that makes the most sense.
Yeah, I'm with you now.
Yeah.
So is that it for D?
Yeah.
Okay.
Wendy's Taco Bell, Dairy Queen, Pizza Hut, A&W,
Carl's Jr. Panera bread.
And then F, we've got Waffle House, Jack in the Box,
White Castle, Subway, Waterberger,
and a piece of shit.
That's scumbag, Blumpy.
These are all trashed.
Yeah.
Zoom, you need to revisit Waffle House, I'm telling you.
In a way, he's not wrong.
Yeah.
I get it.
I get it.
And that's the appeal.
But I love it.
Yeah.
I don't.
Just switch water burgers on the subway.
Beautiful.
Okay, that's fair.
Because I like Waterburger.
I don't know if people really got that from this, but I eat there pretty often.
Whenever I'm around it.
I enjoyed it when we revisited, but I don't think it just, it doesn't belong in the conversation.
No.
If the conversation is Waterberger and in and out, you should be drawn and quartered.
This is Zuma's list.
He did it.
Wow.
It's beautiful.
It really is.
Good job, Zuma.
We're really thankful that you took the time to set the American people straight.
Was there any place on this list that?
Any place that wasn't on the list?
Yeah.
I forgot the name, but there's an Italian food chain, which is so bad.
You know the name?
Frizzolis.
Forzolis.
Yeah, that one.
That one should be on F.
Yeah.
There's also Cece's pizza.
Oh.
It's an all-you-can-eat pizza place.
It's pretty rough.
You know what should be on this?
Colin is like Maud or Blaze pizzas.
Yeah.
I like all those.
I do too.
I think they're actually pretty good.
In a pinch.
Delicious.
Yeah.
Fuck yeah.
So you'll be back in January to put some of this to the test.
Yeah.
And also I got to try those never-hast-shirts stuff.
There's a lot of good shit in there.
When you're in Arizona, they have Portillo's in Phoenix.
I'm touring for food, man.
That's right.
So are we.
What else?
Fuck music.
That's all we have.
No one cares about music anymore.
Exactly.
What do you think about music?
It's cool.
What are the...
What's a...
What's a...
What are you been listening?
lose my music, but I can lose my sushi.
Yeah, yeah.
Amen, brother.
What do you've been listening to?
I want to know what's hot in Japan right now.
I might have different perspective compared to other than Japanese people.
I know for a fact that you do because the first time we came there,
we were so excited to talk to people about Japanese punk bands.
And they would ask us like, hey, who's the best Japanese hardcore band?
And we'd be like, I don't know, but, you know, that's a bad bastard gizm, gizum, stuff like.
that and the reaction was kind of like really?
I mean, it's more like
no one knows about punk stuff
in the hardcore scene. Like
hardcore and a punk scene that
are so divided.
So interesting. Is that Sana walking? We are not
we are not though.
Is that Sana walking around?
Yeah, yeah. What's she doing? She's just
she just woke up there.
Saina, good morning.
Good morning.
You hear that? I heard it.
Yeah. It's lovely.
Thank you, Santa.
I'm listening to
Oh, new and again
What is that?
And again.
And again?
And the gang.
You don't know that?
I don't know, I don't think so.
I don't know.
What the fuck?
Just my pronunciation is my pronunciation.
Oh, under gang.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, that's they rock.
Undergang rocks.
You listen to the new stuff.
You listen to the new Vastom record?
Vaston, yeah.
Yeah, that new record's really good.
dope.
That's Zuma shit right there.
Yeah.
Vastom rocks.
New Year of the Knife as well.
Yeah.
You see a lot of movies?
Which movie?
You tell me.
Any movies that you like this year?
I'm not very into movies, man.
Really?
I used to.
You're just a rocker.
I don't have time.
Too busy.
Like, I prefer going to theater, but I don't have to go anymore.
Too busy.
Touring sucks, man.
Amen.
Man. Actually, I like touring.
Is there anywhere you really want to play next year?
Brazil.
Fuck yeah, dude.
Well, I can tell you one thing for sure.
They want you to come there real bad.
Yeah, come to Brazil and come to Indonesia.
We did Indonesia twice already.
How was Indonesia?
How was it?
It was crazy.
Yeah, that's what I've heard every time.
Like, every, yeah, like many, many kids showing up to show.
That's awesome.
Which is awesome.
And they have insane energy.
Good.
Yeah, other than some weird, like border and custom stuff, it's cool.
Good.
It's very cool.
In terms of Japan, what has it been like over the past few years seeing hardcore grow around the world?
Yeah, it used to be so bad it 10 years ago, I guess.
Wow.
Like when I started going to Harcou show.
Sure.
It was kind of bad, I guess, compared to...
early 2000s.
Right.
I see.
But now it's getting better.
Nice.
It's getting back to before.
I think some medical folks get into hardcore recently.
Yeah, definitely.
How do you feel about that?
It's cool, mostly.
But when they're trying to, some stupid pass on Twitter.
Yeah.
Ah, yeah.
We're getting hit by some of what stuff.
Yeah, right, right.
Oh.
I think you guys have those as well, right?
Yeah, of course.
Yeah, most, most discos.
Yes, mosh discourse.
And then I'm like, just go back to where you were.
You love hard moshing, right?
Yeah.
Because one of your biggest, one of your main catchphrases is I want to see some crazy shit.
Some crazy shit.
Yeah.
What's the craziest, what's the hardest moshing city you played in America?
Show in Orlando was crazy.
Okay.
People were crazy.
Wow.
That's what I remember.
There you go, Florida.
There you go.
Good job, Florida.
Good job, Orlando.
you mosh harder than anybody, I guess.
Yeah, I mean, yeah, all the Californian shows.
Berkeley the other day was pretty crazy.
Yeah, that was amazing.
Yeah, the Kerman show was...
Pretty good, yeah, that's pretty wild.
Yeah, thank you for having nothing.
Oh, my God.
You kidding me?
I would prefer to, like, only play...
Like, if cruelty could play every show I play, everything would be...
It would be a perfect world.
How do you want to leave the people today?
Do you have any message?
for them? One last message?
In and out,
uh,
yeah,
it's a high-hocas.
It's,
well,
uh,
but,
that's,
so,
that's gonna,
so,
see ya.
Bye!
