I forgot what they were called. We... I forgot what you guys were called.
Starting point is 00:02:48 We call you the readers, not the Las Culturistas. But that's us. Sorry, that's us. We should just say some magnetically weird things are happening in the world. Go off. Hot executive producer Anna's power just went out in her parents' house.
Starting point is 00:03:04 She's joining us from her folks' home. Matt just got an order of some food that he did not enjoy. No! How dare you? Oh, my God. No, you're blackening my name in the village. I'm not doing anything. Well, because I came on the Zoom with a concern that now that we've done an ad for the McRib,
Starting point is 00:03:24 I was, okay, I'm just going to come out and say it because you have- You're going to want to cut this out. No, I'm not. I'm not. Because I asked the producers. I said, we did an ad for the McRib, for the McDonald's McRib. And as a result of doing that- You can't do it on air.
Starting point is 00:03:40 Yes, I can. You can't say it is on air. Well, you've, okay, I have to say it now. I think the McRib is fine. Meanwhile, I love it. And you love it, which is amazing. It's not that I'm not going to go to McDonald's
Starting point is 00:03:55 ever again. It's not a sort of criticism of McDonald's. I'm just saying that it's not going to be what I order when I go there each day. Not that I go each day. Hold on. Pause real fast. I do think we should cut this out and not talk
Starting point is 00:04:12 about this because then it steps on the big reveal that the first day of culture is going to be McDonald's. Or is the big reveal even funnier? Well, now we've already revealed it. But you said cut this out. I feel like we should just keep it i feel like it gives it away and then i also don't want to potentially compromise
Starting point is 00:04:30 but bowen i just want you to know that you are the one that brought us here because you said matt got some food that he didn't like and then i felt compelled to once i get once i'm given the assist i have to give the spike you're right okay all right but let's let's let's for let's just in case for safety let's just reset okay okay from the top no no no no no no well if you want to i was gonna pick up from anna's pick it up yeah anna is working in like a power outage situation on explain phenomenon on explain phenomenon uh h.

Starting point is 00:05:57 This is so stupid. You're literally working the most stressful job in entertainment. And we're like, let's do this. We want to die, I think. It was our idea because we love the readers so much. Truly, we're recording this in the week that everyone's Spotify raps came
Starting point is 00:06:14 out and I think a lot of podcasters are feeling emotional about their podcasts being listened to. You know what? That is very real. It's so special.

So that's when culture started. You understand? You understand? You understand it's 1492 was the start of the residence. So that's when culture started. You understand? You understand?
Starting point is 00:08:47 You understand? You understand it's 1492. The Renaissance was like 1492. That's like something one of my aunts would have said when I was little. Yeah, the Renaissance, 1492 on, onward from that point on. Oh my God. We're so off the rails here. But I was talking to a friend, a guy who a friend a guy okay yes it was a guy no no i meant to say a straight guy who went on a date with this girl who i'm already
Starting point is 00:09:16 laughing was from long island and so it was a lovely time they had together he married her like recently i guess it was some event it was like over the summer it was like yeah i'm gonna go home and watch like this thing do you want to come with and then she just went uh yeah i guess that's something that could be interesting like oh yeah i guess that's something that could be interesting. Or no, she said, yeah, that don't sound like anything I've ever done before. Like something like what?
Starting point is 00:09:56 It was truly like a fucking hack job Marissa Tomei character. But that person exists. Hold on. Oh, no. The thing about Long Island is people will just talk more to say just the word yes or no, whatever, just to hear themselves do it. That's very the spirit of. That's the spirit of Long Island. That region.
Starting point is 00:10:13 I'm sorry. What were we talking about? Oh, we're doing one day in cultural history for every episode in this special segment series, I should say. Yeah. And then what are we doing, Matt? So basically, each of these days of culture, culture history is of course 1492 onward.
Starting point is 00:10:29 Each of these days gave birth to a gift that was a gift to us. Okay, so these are each day, 12 days of culture throughout time, culture history. These are the most 12 most important days of culture because they gave us these gifts. And today we are giving you the gift of the first day of culture because they gave us these gifts and today we are giving you the gift of the first

Starting point is 00:11:36 and try the McRib. This is me pushing sales for McDonald's. And try it yourself. And if you decide that the number two, or not the number two anymore, it that the number two or not the number two anymore it was the number two r.i.p but two cheeseburgers and a large cheeseburgers oh my god it's good for you then that's wonderful that's what i'm deciding but if you love the mcrib i celebrate yes okay but this is august 13th 1953 august 18th i, 1953. The day the first McDonald's opened its doors.
Starting point is 00:12:06 This was a day of culture history. This gift. A day of gifts. Why was he... This was a day of culture history. This gift. That's the statement. That's the statement every

Starting point is 00:16:32 me what was moving from the very cold frigid dry climb of montreal quebec and then moving to the other cold frig, dry climb of Aurora, Colorado. And thinking, and yet still thinking, wow, this is a shock to me. A shock to me culturally even. And I thought nothing around me looks familiar. I don't recognize these streets, these people, these faces. Show me something familiar for a change why don't you lest i try and walk out
Starting point is 00:17:27 this door of this country right now across the damn border myself by foot as a nine-year-old yes go off we're looking at houses with my parents who have done a lot of work talking to a broker a real estate agent work exhausting work they don't want to make lunch no no not so where do they go we pull up to the mcdonald's on arapahoe road next to the dickies barbecue oh across from the kia dealers. Of course. And we see those golden arches. They're a gateway. They're a gateway in the literal sense, in the sort of color story of it all. Organic, warm, inviting colors, yellow and red, baby.
Starting point is 00:18:22 And you go, honey, I'm home. home yes let's press on towards those arches for we know the spoils that that trove holds prayers and what did i order fillet of fish for the mom for my mom i should say oh that took me back that took me out girl that took you fillet of fish there's a special kind of person that orders Filet-O-Fish. If you fuck with the tartar sauce at McDonald's, you're a good person. You're a good person. You're a good person. Congratulations.
Starting point is 00:19:00 Congratulations. Good one. My dad would order just whatever chaotic thing he was in the mood for that day sometimes it'd be a salad shaker remember those sometimes he would order a different thing
Starting point is 00:19:10 like he was someone who was open to different things well my dad's only like my dad was only very McDonald's like 10 times his entire life so
Starting point is 00:19:18 of those 10 times I don't really remember consistent order like a like a a thematic order yeah Yang my sister would always get a Big Mac that's I'll never understand I don't really remember consistent order. Like a thematic order. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:27 Yang, my sister, would always get a Big Mac. Oh, that's... I'll never understand. I used to be a Big Mac person, and then at college, switched to the two cheeseburger. Oh. That's the way. You gotta. That's the way.
Starting point is 00:19:37 That's the way. And I'll also shock everyone in the house by saying another option, The double cheeseburger. Sometimes two of them. You did not just... Oh, I just really went there. I said that if you want a Big Mac volume and you find yourself gravitating more towards the two cheeseburger situation
Starting point is 00:20:02 like me and my very close sister bowen then perhaps what you're saying really is you're ready to compromise america don't do that centrist when it comes to mcdonald's it might be time to sort of move into double cheeseburger territory now the chicken of it all talk to me about your mcdonald's chicken no i want you to tell me because i feel like you know there's much i'm a meat burger person and i feel like you might be erring more towards some chicken sometimes i always love some chicken and look when it comes to mcdonald's chicken didn't we all love it before and then food ink comes out and everyone's like it's made of pink slime no guess what guess what happened what happened fucking nothing because we all love that pink slime and
Starting point is 00:21:00 as long as you know that it's pink slime it don don't change the fact that we still love to eat it. Guess what, bitch? If you have a problem back then with the pink slime and now you find yourself sort of nibbling on nuggets, you actually didn't learn anything from those films that were made about McDonald's like what's the one with the guy who ate all the McDonald's food supersizing you didn't learn anything from that
Starting point is 00:21:34 you didn't learn anything from Food Inc you didn't learn anything from anything Natalie Portman has literally ever said so get off your high horse forever queen here's the thing if you did not learn anything from the movie food inc then you might as well not even watch a single documentary again yeah because your retention skills seem to be very non-existent darling dear you don't have

I just had such an anger. I was just so mad at life. Everything that wasn't right was everybody's fault but mine. I had such a victim mentality. I took zero accountability for anything in my life. I was the kid that if you asked what happened, I immediately started with everything but me. It took years for me to break that, like years of work.

And his name, Elian Gonzalez, will make headlines everywhere. Elian Gonzalez. Elian Gonzalez.

Mr. Gonzalez wanted to go home and he wanted to take his son with him. Or his relatives in Miami. Imagine that your mother died trying to get you to freedom. At the heart of it all is still this painful family separation. Something that as a Cuban, I know all too well.
Starting point is 00:26:11 Listen to Chess Peace, the Elian Gonzalez story as part of the My Cultura podcast network available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Can I ask a question that will, I think, cause a lot of maybe controversy amongst the readers? Okay, yes. What do you feel about the access to and usage of McDonald's play sets throughout childhood. Do you think they were something that spread disease like absolute wildfire? Or do you think that this was a moment in time that you miss and you use the play sets?
Starting point is 00:27:01 It was a moment in time when I would, the attraction and the draws they say would be mcplay place wow so you would maybe even want to go to one mcdonald's over another over their mcplay place because one mcplay place would have better architecture you know know? 100%. Now, I have a controversial question. Go on. Marry, fuck, kill. Ronald McDonald. Oh, gosh.
Starting point is 00:27:33 It's already hard. Grimace. It's already hard to do what? Yeah, because I don't know whether I want to fuck him or marry him. Or kill him. Because Ronald McDonald makes me crazy. He makes me sexually crazy. I do crazy things when I think about him.
Starting point is 00:27:47 But keep going. But hold on. It's Ronald McDonald. Grimace. Fuck, this is so hard. This is tough for me. Grimace. Oh, my God.

Starting point is 00:28:21 I can't believe I have to kill one of them when all i want to do is fucking tear every one of them apart with every part of me i mean you're topping them so so fucking hard to do this i'm gonna marry ronald mcdonald because he's got the money and at the end of the day that's what makes the world go around yeah i. I'm going to fuck the Hamburglar because I know he's been in some sticky situations. And mama, the scenario that I want us to play out can only be described as cops and robbers. It can only be described as mama, I'm in love with a criminal. That. Unfortunately, I have to kill Grimace because it's just negative energy which i do like
Starting point is 00:29:08 sometimes in a in a vivid sexual way but not tonight you like negative energy in a vivid sexual way what does that mean at times it has been it has been at times okay well thank you you've done it you've answered my question you've answered the prompt thank you so as we move forward into today what do you think of the way McDonald's
Starting point is 00:29:39 stands in the world the criticisms the sort of attack the the attack by health groups on mcdonald's oh my god. Well, the question is still standing, not answered. What do you think of McDonald's current standing in the world
Starting point is 00:30:12 on the attacks by health groups on McDonald's? Should they chill? Should they relax? Look. Look. McDonald's is listening. McDonald's has they've tried to solve these problems. They've tried salads.
Starting point is 00:30:30 They've tried apple slices. Are they healthy or not? Answer that question. They're healthy if you want to get healthy out of it. It's as simple as that. McDonald's is just giving you choices. And at the end of the day, and this is very neoliberal, maybe, but you gotta
Starting point is 00:30:47 choose, honey. And if you don't pull yourself up by the bootstraps, then if you don't do that, then you deserve to be unhealthy. And poor. You really do. You really do. You really do.
Starting point is 00:31:04 Anyway, okay, ready? Yeah. One more thing. Marry, fuck, kill. Oh my god. The McFlurry. Oh!

Think about how good it probably is. Okay. And marry a fucked killer. I think I marry the McFlurry because I don't think I've ever,
Starting point is 00:32:09 I don't think they've ever let me down. They've never disappointed, never, ever, ever deviated, um, strewn from the path. The steady beating cocoon of the three.
