Starting point is 00:00:00 What happens when three buffoons give life advice, explore on realistic situations, and give random topics more thought than they probably deserve? It's the spitballers podcast with Andy, Mike, and Jason. Oh, all right. You know, that's not easy to time. No, and it was pretty well-time. I'll go six out of ten. You have to go into your bag of tricks because you've got a lot of scats coming up here, Mike. I do.
Starting point is 00:00:42 You got a lot of... I didn't know we were going to go right into it. It's fine. It's fine. There was, we're 345 episodes into the show. We'll just unravel it all. Okay, listen. So, Mike and I are kind of into sports cards right now with our children.
Starting point is 00:00:58 The fat of the week Only, only because of the children If the children weren't there, we saw wouldn't be in on it What a dumb hobby Yeah And so there was a deal that was online You could only order one Yeah limit one per customer
Starting point is 00:01:14 Yeah, per membership And while you tried to order more They did cancel all the ones Yeah, they caught us They did But I signed up for 10 more Costco membership A deal was struck Between Mike and myself
Starting point is 00:01:26 Yeah I bought Spar of the moment A box of cards for you You did On my account With my money You bought a box of cards
Starting point is 00:01:35 That's true That's true I did The deal had not been made I'd probably pay you for one He'd probably pay you for one Yeah I mean I wasn't
Starting point is 00:01:42 I wasn't looking to front Your card addiction here And then at lunch It was I wasn't sure who the box was going to How it works Who's paying me back And a deal
Starting point is 00:01:54 The deal was struck Yeah that Mike gets the box of cards for my next two scats. I don't have to scat for at least a month. I've never seen Jason. I mean, he's accomplished a lot in his life.
Starting point is 00:02:09 He has three beautiful children. He's got a wife. He's got a successful business. He's, I think, a college graduate. All of these things. There's never been more relieved and happy than this moment. One of the greatest accomplishments of my life. Do you have a degree, Jay?
Starting point is 00:02:23 I do. I do. You have a B. BA? I have a BA, yes. Yeah, it took you 20 years, seven years. I went to a BFA program. I catch a nineer in there. Went there, went there three and a half years. But you got almost there. And then I went back to school a decade later. Oh, that's right. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. Do the
Starting point is 00:02:42 do the deucers have, you both have degrees? I do not. Okay, me and you do not, Al. And we're the best looking. So that makes sense. Josh has a degree. Josh has a degree in life. You're like a biology. He actually has a degree in in biology. That's very true. Hold on. From what school? University of Louisiana.
Starting point is 00:03:02 No, he's making that. Okay, it's a state school. It's a university? No, no, state school was not a, that was not a derogatory comment. Yes, yes. I actually went to the campus and took classes and did all. The internet did not exist.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Ah, yeah. All right. Well, yeah, ideal was struck. I know you guys like hearing Jason work his way through this gap. No, for the record, it's going to look like Jason's doing the scat. I was going to ask you. I'll be on camera. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:30 You should be on camera and the sounds come from Mike. But are you going to do an impression of Jason? We'll see. I will find out. Stay tuned. Today we have Would You Rather Man of the People and we are drafting a. I have so many scats I got to do. A pretty fun draft called building a mall food court.
Starting point is 00:03:46 I love mall food courts. I still kind of romanticized the whole mall world in general. Oh, my gosh. do so much. And I don't think, like, we grew up in the heyday of malls. Yeah. We're all around 40 years old. Mals were the thing when we were growing up. It was where everyone congregated. Yep. Movie theaters, ice skating rinks inside of malls, the food court. Oh, yeah. It's where the kids went to hang out. You get dropped off at the mall. You get picked up later. It makes me upset that my kids don't care about the mall enough. My kids like the mall.
Starting point is 00:04:16 Yeah, my kids like, my kids like the mall, but I'm like, there's times where you want to go to the mall. They're like, nah. I'm like, what? Mm. The malls are incredible. Dude, and so much to the point I have, I've talked about on this show, my love for coffee table books and, you know, just photo books. I mean, I spent way too much money on a, someone, like, put together photos that, like, from the 90s of mall life. and like in a really really nice book it's amazing right dude it's it instantly transports you of like
Starting point is 00:04:56 it's really weird feelings because they're just so nebulous and you can't it's not a the feelings itself yeah it's not a complete memory it's just like a partial memory it's a vibe and then it's combined with emotion yeah 100% is a vibe and so i mean i have that i love it i look at it from time to time. And then the other day AI, which is a hot topic I get it. Some people don't like A, whatever. Someone is doing, and it was like this AI of
Starting point is 00:05:26 like malls. But like they put so they put together. So it's not, there's not people in it. It's not abandoned, but they just design a mall. And then they put it through, you know, an old 90s looking filtering and they just slowly scroll through the mall. And I'm just like, oh,
Starting point is 00:05:44 what has? happened to the last 45 minutes. Here's what's really funny. And this is something I have vetted. When we say, if you could go back to any time in your life and live it, we say the 90s a lot of the time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:58 Because you were kind of like, there was some technology emerging, but it wasn't too much. That's when we were teenagers. And we romanticized the 90s, right? Of course. But here's what's really interesting. And again, this is kind of anecdotal, but it's a group of children. The youth group at our
Starting point is 00:06:14 church, I was asking their youth group leader like how the kids feel about you know, their childhood and when they'd want to live. They all want to go to the 90s. Like we didn't grow up and go, I wish I lived in the 50s because we didn't grow up in the 50s. No. Those were all disgusting people. The kids today, what they've heard about the 90s, they wish they could live in the 90s.
Starting point is 00:06:33 Yeah, it was pretty good. The 90s were awesome. They were great. It was just kind of like, like I said, the technological KB toys. I mean, yeah. Well, we'll get into it. We'll build a custom mall food court today in the draft, but let's start off with some would you rather. Would you rather? Yeah, I'm all for a mall comeback, by the way.
Starting point is 00:06:57 If we want to, like, some of them are successful. There's like two in the Arizona area that are really successful. They are doing the opposite of the comeback. They are doing the demolishing them and figuring out what to do with all that landed space. Low income housing. yeah we are doing it's a lot of land it is it's a lot of parking lots it's a lot of land i think i mean metro for us which metro center Arizona legendary mall featured in bill and ted
Starting point is 00:07:25 bill and ted's excellent adventure which when you watch that and you see that floor and you're like whole man yeah it's awesome uh but that one's becoming like a whole park yeah they're doing a lot with that land but there are some that still thrive and let's go to would you rather sharing from patreon would you rather trick or treat a long as an adult with no costume. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. I could not imagine. No.
Starting point is 00:07:49 Or leave your porch light on and have to answer the door for every trick or treater but have nothing to hand out. Oh, that's easy. That is easy. The ladder? The ladder is easy. I mean, you just choose trick. Sometimes you just say all out. Sometimes you just choose trick.
Starting point is 00:08:08 No. Yeah. No. Yeah. You know what you could get away with? 100% you. you can get away with? I ran out. No, no. I'll just take some scrap paper and rip it into small pieces. They don't know what the heck I'm putting in their bag. If they're holding their bag out
Starting point is 00:08:21 and I hold something, I can drop anything I want in there. They don't know. If you dropped pieces of paper into my bag. You wouldn't know. I would be like, you are a scumbag. You are a scumbag. I could have nothing in my hand. I think you would not know. You wouldn't know until the end of the night. But I'd still be disappointed in the moment. I'd be like, why are you throwing paper? They wouldn't know. You're saying I wouldn't know. You're saying I wouldn't know what like they hold the bag out the bag's already full of candy yeah i put something with a little weight i'll put a penny okay so that makes more sense than the paper like if you put little rocks and you had a handful of rocks and i didn't know you just need to feel it hitting here's the
Starting point is 00:08:58 thing you're thinking as a grown-up you need to you need to get in the brain of a an eight-year-old kid who has been to houses and all and they've gotten a bunch of candy imagine going up to a house and this person reaches in and they dump in a mystery thing you don't know what it is you know it wasn't candy and you're eight years old you're gonna be like something special kind of excited yeah just went into my bag so in the moment you i don't think you'll realize that you've just been hoodwinked until you get home and you're dumping it out and by then you may not even remember what happened you might see the pieces of paper and go how'd that get in there i will definitely we're all going to choose that one because you can get out of it easier.
Starting point is 00:09:42 The other one is creepy as can be, and you can't do that. I mean, with a costume, you're a big kid. Without a costume, you're an adult. If you are an adult and you are going trick-or-treating, you have to have a full face covering costume. You know what I mean? This is the blow-up costume panda, or you're wearing the scream mask. The panda works.
Starting point is 00:10:07 Where your entire face. And you better shave. You go, trick-or-tree. Yeah, no. I have the detour here. We're all picking that one, right? Oh, for sure. Pause.
Starting point is 00:10:18 The coffee book that Mike just talked about. That was not the one I got. There was a, he put out a second one. There's a malls across America coffee table book. I want that one. It is currently priced in a used price for $1,233 for a coffee table book. Yeah, that's not the one. And you want it.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Oh, yeah, yeah. And you have one, but not this. Yeah, mine is. Is this what the market for coffee table books is? Mine is the decline of mall civilization. So I don't know if you can find that one. Are these limited print? I think, honestly, no joke.
Starting point is 00:10:55 I think I got mine in COVID time. How often do you use it? Like, is it on the coffee table? It's in my... Because it's too expensive to be on a coffee table. No, no, it's in my library. of very fancy books. It's in your fancy book room.
Starting point is 00:11:17 Yes. Ah, as we all have. Would you rather question from Zeke on the website? Would you rather have to use a 13-inch iPad Pro as your only cell phone for the rest of your life? Funny image, mental image. Or drive a truck with a 10-foot trailer everywhere you go for the rest of your life? That's a great, weird question. Give me that again?
Starting point is 00:11:36 Neither of them are alike each other at all. So basically, you have to either drive, everywhere you drive, your normal day-to-day driver is a truck with a 10-foot trailer. Oh, my gosh. Or your normal day-to-day life. You don't have a phone. Your phone is a full-sized iPad. You can't put it in your pocket. When you talk on the phone.
Starting point is 00:11:59 Oh, my gosh, the pocket thing might be the most impactful. Yeah, I mean, talking on the phone, I can figure it out. We need to go to, it's not exactly. It's not apples to apples, but we need to go to producer sensation, Al Borland, who recently got a new phone and he got a new case for his phone? The library. He has his library and his pocket. It makes it look like he's carrying around a tiny encyclopedia.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Not so tiny, Mike. An encyclopedia. A smaller encyclopedia. Well, I've seen this thing. And there was a couple things that came to mind because Jason and I both, we got new phones recently. I have a certain case that I like It's a black case But it's very practical
Starting point is 00:12:42 It has a little loop It has a stand It has magnets Practical Jason He bought the same case I bought the same case And we have the same phone So they look alike
Starting point is 00:12:50 And then Alborland sees our cases He's like I love all these features But it just doesn't look cool enough Let's literally what you said Do you remember this? It does not look I didn't say it doesn't look cool enough I said it doesn't come in enough colors
Starting point is 00:13:02 Okay He's like you went with It's not Britannica You you went with the port that like little it's brown your phone is brown yours looks like a little teeny like book that i do you still have i got a great deal on it it's hard to pass it let's let's throw the camera up hold that thing up oh my god whoa put it on your chest you're doing some research over there no there you go right there now open it up turn to page five and give me your grandmother's
Starting point is 00:13:30 phone number off the list there you have to have a brick in your pocket because that is an enormous Now how are you liking this deal you got on this small folio? I've actually really grown to like it quite a bit yeah. Do you keep your cards in there? No, of course. No, it makes it too fat. Yeah. That's what I was going to bring up. This is a wallet
Starting point is 00:13:51 case. The thing designed to hold stuff? This is a wallet case but it's so big already that if you were to put... Papa Josh, bring that over here. I want to look at it in person. In the wallet then it won't shut. So I could see it being oh my gosh it's so big it has spots for cards yeah right over here i don't see any cards
Starting point is 00:14:11 though and then i mean it's i mean oh my gosh you're it's like a brick but you can take the phone out like it in a secondary case that is what you want to do you want to take your phone in and out of the case oh it's a case over his case yeah oh wait you know he's got a case on it already oh because the magnet came with it why have so it's a case and then there's a book there's a spot in here for checks. There's a spot in here for checks. Oh yeah. And then you can put it for the YouTube and for us, Jeremy. Yeah, this is this is for us. This is not for our audience. Yeah, they can just listen to all of this. So why do you have this case on Jerry? So he has a we're describing normal, the normal phone case that most people have. You have your phone. That's right.
Starting point is 00:14:51 He does have a real heavy duty case. Yeah. And then it goes in the folly. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Let me see it. So the phone case already has a. brown leather on it. That's probably the magnet that attaches to the other mages. And then that brown leather goes in the other brown leather in encyclopedia case. Yeah, exactly. There's so much fake leather here. It's a 40 pound phone. And basically this question is, would he like to continue using a 13 inch iPad pro or do the trailer thing? His case doesn't work without the interior case. Correct. It doesn't magnetize. But it's got mag safe. It should work. No, no. You need the other case. Oh, man. What did you get? What'd you get this for like three bucks? I did. It was like. It was
Starting point is 00:15:31 like, too, on an auction site. I cannot drive a car with, I can barely handle driving of a mid-sized SUV. For those of us that are in their 40s, this looks identical to a checkbook your mother had growing up. Oh, it is so... Because you would get like a nice leather checkbook. The books are so balanced. Yeah, he's keeping a ledger in there. This is fancy. Banks charge a lot of money for this. All right. All right. We've stolen his phone long enough. Here we go. So, no, I cannot have... Bring this over with like a dolly. I can't have a 10-foot trailer. I, that would be so stressful. I struggle parking my, my mid-sized family car. You're telling me I have, I have to have a trailer on there. But there's no way. There's advantages to that. There are advantages. You get to buy stuff and
Starting point is 00:16:19 have a trailer. So, I mean, yeah, I mean, the truth is people need a trailer sometime. People can call me to tow their stuff. That's true. So this is more maybe of a me problem. My, family I'm sorry my wife often needs didn't want your kids dragged in no I don't want to drag my kids
Starting point is 00:16:39 I don't want to besmirch my kids here we often need trailers to pick up something it could be anything theater related costumes set pieces whatever and so I do think
Starting point is 00:16:55 once you're used to the trailer it will be the only time it's going to parking really be a problem is parking you got to do the pull through you got to go far out in the parking lot pull through which i do think is fine most of the time but like let's say now you're going to an event you got tickets to an event and you've got to go into the parking garage yeah you're done you can't i've never seen a trailer in a parking garage in my life i don't know i i don't think you can do it i don't think legally it's allowed no you couldn't get through the like so here's the issue holiday parking is is done you're not going anywhere during the holidays um to during the summer of course
Starting point is 00:17:29 find a spot, but that means that you're walking. You are so far away walking in 115 degrees. How do you hold your cell phone, though? If it's an iPad, where do you hold it? Oh, I'll get a little satchel. Yeah, I'll get a satchel. I'm going an iPad. Satchel's fine. There are some advantages. You look like Indiana Jones.
Starting point is 00:17:45 You have a bigger screen. Like, check out how big my phone is. I thought you meant the advantages to the satchel, which are innumerable. That number some of them. Well, first of all, I don't have all of the stuff. I can put all of my wallet stuff in there instead of carrying it in some sort of folio case that I bought on Timu. I have been a man purse bag boy. Yes. For a long time. Man purse bag boy. I'm just, I'm saying like, no, that's good. It's like, whatever attack you want to come at me with you, like, oh, you have a purse. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:18:12 I do. The funny, okay. I, I have all this stuff. There is, all this stuff. We go on trips. There is no reason to not have a fanny pack other than you don't want to be seen with a fanny pack. Yeah. There's funny things in life like that. And I admit, I won't wear a fanny pack. but there's no one on the earth that would not like the convenience of a fanny pack isn't that the same let me just throw this out there because you're talking about satchel's a diagonal fanny pack yeah no i go cross body i believe but i'll fanny pack and i don't care and i want you to be open-minded about what i'm going to say i fanny pack at disney oh good for you yeah i do too because i go full
Starting point is 00:18:49 backpack so okay i want you to be open-minded of what i'm going to say but it's very similar to the the the fanny pack is actually an upgrade on life but it feels yeah But society has shamed you into saying you can't do it. Why don't we wear skirts? Okay, okay. Skirts seem awesome. This is a kilt conversation. Yeah, dude.
Starting point is 00:19:10 Super easy access. Coffee. I can do a high kick. No problem. Well, I'm not ripping. There's a problem. Well, right. For others.
Starting point is 00:19:19 Yes. You have some sweat issues down there? No. You need more breeze? No, it's not a. Oh, okay. It's not a sweat. That problem, it just seems like...
Starting point is 00:19:30 Free, it seems free. You are a pants off the second you get to home. There's downsides. Really? Yeah. Please. I'm just saying that you're going to have to make decisions on the way you sit and the way you move. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:43 So I still got the underpants on. Yeah. I don't mind if someone sees the underpants. I don't know. I just feel like you're going to have to do... That's society. There's a lot of thighs hanging out. That's the norms telling you can't do something.
Starting point is 00:19:56 Norms are okay. They're there for a reason. and they were not for the scots that's what's normal is there any possible way that it is less comfortable than pants or shorts interesting question it's impossible right uh support but you got the under you have support from your shorts and pants yeah no that no if you're getting support a high crotch in a pants is is the opposite of support i wear the occasional uh supportive uh athletic shorts with no hundred pants but well they've got the built-in underpants i know but i think you could be right i think we're right i think it's just like i think i could not go outside in the skirt
Starting point is 00:20:32 we're not running races in skirts we should no i don't think we should i don't think that's more free i think it's just it's more interesting to wind reason up it's a that what's the norms of society like just go to to watch the movie braveheart yeah they were and and look at those the the men oh yes the warriors the warriors in that movie and be like look at these dudes look at those little ladies babies with swords and skirts what i mean okay no those dudes are
Starting point is 00:21:07 swords and skirts that's that's that's a new fancy football name okay swords and skirts because you're maybe you just need a sword okay so if i'm wearing a skirt so if you have a but i'm walking around with like it compensates for the skirt a broad sword on my shoulder who's gonna be like nobody's going to question no was going to say anything no they were probably embarrassed but then no one would confront them.
Starting point is 00:21:29 Because they have swords. Sword, shield, cross, bow, you're good. Well, let me ask you simply then. Just a medieval weapon. You want to know why norms exist? Why is that? Because you could make the identical argument to walking around and underpants alone.
Starting point is 00:21:41 Sure. That's the same argument. That's the same argument. Just walk around and your underpants pants. I was going to go all the way to need. And you realize. Or nude. You realize we do do that.
Starting point is 00:21:49 You said do-do. I did. You got me. But the moment you go to the beach, like you are essentially in underpants you're saying there are places we decide underpants are appropriate for normal life that is what i am saying could you imagine going to a grocery store because we would not want to swim in a skirt or a pair of pants right if you were to go to the grocery store and take your shirt off and just walk the grocery store how embarrassed would you feel you'd be escorted out but it depends on where you do it and how much work out if you if you're living in a beach town yeah then they're just Just like whatever. I'm talking across the street from my house. If I were to be paid a hundred dollars, someone said, I will give you a hundred dollars to go inside of this store.
Starting point is 00:22:36 Shirt off with your shirt off. Right. I would, if they said a thousand, not a joke, if they said I will give you a thousand dollars, I would absolutely not do it. You probably would not be allowed by the policy of the, you would not. But now, unless you were on the beach. Yeah. Take all of the people inside of that grocery store. Take them outside, put a waterfront there.
Starting point is 00:22:58 My shirt. I don't want a shirt on. That's coming off. You know what you're describing? You all can see my man boobs. That's fine. You are describing a society. But that's what you're doing.
Starting point is 00:23:08 What I'm describing is the ridiculous nature of society. Yeah, I mean. It's weird. Okay. It is weird. It's weird. Because you do that. Okay, so you're like, I gave you $1,000 by yourself.
Starting point is 00:23:20 You're like, I can't do that. All right. I'm going to 10 guys. $100 a piece shirtless in the store all of a sudden it seems a lot because it's a group more comfortable
Starting point is 00:23:33 yeah yeah whatever the people do I mean that is the way society functions pressure from all sides determines the normative yeah and it's like who got to decide these things dude I want to come there are funny things I want to come to work in a
Starting point is 00:23:48 kilt tomorrow yeah I just want to try it out I tell you what Jay how in on Renfares are you? I hate Renfares. Okay. Full stop. Do you know that you can go to a renfair
Starting point is 00:24:03 in a kilt and not only will you be totally fine, you will be celebrated. Oh yeah, and I will not be alone. I know. Mostly because you're dressing up like you're from the Renshunts. Do you want to know why I hate Renn fairs? Why? Yeah, I do actually, because Renn Fairs are awesome. I hate Renn Fairs.
Starting point is 00:24:20 And this is not a joke. I would have answered this before this entire conversation. The reason I eight renfares is because of how people dress there. It's disgusting. It's, uh, oh my goodness. What? And full circle we come. People at the Renaissance Festival.
Starting point is 00:24:40 Full circle. And which part is disgusting. Well, look, I've seen a lot of. Okay. I can't wait to hear the rest of this. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. There's a lot of big fat bellies out there, man. that are uncovered that should be totally covered.
Starting point is 00:24:56 I don't know why. I've gone to like three in my life and it's like you can't just... But then put those guys on the beach and you're totally fine? I mean, I'm sure he's not fine, but he understands it. It's weird. You can't understand it at the Renfair? No, I can't. Are you basically saying you want like a BMI regulation?
Starting point is 00:25:16 Yes. All right. We got to move on. This guy. I am on Amazon looking at kiltz right now. Okay. Dude, renfares are a good time. Scottish designer?
Starting point is 00:25:27 I've always had a good time. Matthew from Patreon. Would you rather be tasered or pepper sprayed? Tazered or pepper sprayed? That is very easy answer for it. Oh, I feel like this is a great question. We'll save the answer on three there. This is the difference between eating a jalapeno and wasabi.
Starting point is 00:25:44 Easy. One lingers, one last. Correct. One is done and over. One, two, three. It's taser or pepper spray? Or pepper spray? Just to get this out there.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Everyone in the room. Has anybody had either of these done? I have had a hint of the pepper spray before, yes. I'll tell the story in a minute, but yes. All right. So one, two, three, taser. Okay. It's easy.
Starting point is 00:26:11 I can't, I don't want my eyes burning for hours. No, that is the issue. You're choking, snots everywhere. No, no, dude, pepper spray is no. Joe. I got, so this was a long time ago. I was a teenager. And my mom's... Do we know this story? Maybe, I don't know, but a teenager. It's not familiar. Teenage Jason's story. Teenage Jason's with pepper spray. My mother had, you know, back in the day, everyone had giant, it's not back in the day. It's still continues. I'm saying the keys. Like, yeah, they had the mace.
Starting point is 00:26:43 Yeah. And tons of keys on it and all that. And so my mom put this mace. on the keychain and I was like this is cool I want to try this out so I went to the front door I opened the front door I sprayed the pepper spray mace I don't know which one it was or what the difference is that's a good question was the difference yeah producers get on that I sprayed it out towards the front yard from the front door cool whatever close the door I'm telling you is 10 minutes later where my mom got home from the grocery store Oh no! I needed to help unload groceries. Oh no! And I just walk outside. I walk right through
Starting point is 00:27:30 where I had sprayed it. This is outdoors. And I'm telling you, I walked through maybe it was five minutes. Maybe it wasn't 10. But it was a long enough time where I didn't even think about what I had done. It was still there. And it burned my eyes. like crazy. Like I was like this is the most painful thing I've ever had happened to me at that point in my life. Pepper spray has to be up there with the worst of the worst things. Well, there are different types of mixes and the pepper sprays and stuff that are
Starting point is 00:28:03 worse than others. But we all, we'd all rather like, yes, getting tasered would suck, but it's over quick. Yeah. They both suck. They both suck 10 out of 10. Technically the taser, I mean, I know you don't like needles. It's going in, it's a bar going in your system. I don't mind that.
Starting point is 00:28:17 That's the thing that... You don't mind the barb going in? No, I mean, it's one of those, like, I don't have a phobia. The way I have a phobia of, like, a needle going in a vein. How about a needle going into a vein or pepper spray for you? Pepper spray? No. No.
Starting point is 00:28:30 No. Of course. No. If you told me I have to get an... A registered, trained expert nurse versus pepper spray? I don't believe you. I don't believe you. So, I've got, so literally on...
Starting point is 00:28:43 Pepper spray or the scat? because I have got an idea for the next time that you want out of the scat. I'll give you six months. I would do a scat over pepper spray. But I do think that if, so this coming, I forget if it's Tuesday or Wednesday, I have a big blood draw.
Starting point is 00:29:03 And I hate. You're really, but you're going to do it. I'm going to do it, yes. But if I could show up there and get the results by being pepper sprayed instead. You would do it? I think I would do it. I think you would choose that once.
Starting point is 00:29:17 Maybe. That's true because I haven't done it before. I think you would do, you'd be like, no, no, no, I'll do this. And then you would get pepper sprayed and you would say, never again. I will do a blood draw every day of my life. I do have one over that. I have one other point on Taser, that's a problem. Okay.
Starting point is 00:29:31 That's maybe underestimated. You become unable to use any of your body parts. You will fall. Yes. You will fall and potentially could hit your head. You can. So I'm just saying like that the fall is not really. always consider
Starting point is 00:29:47 yeah but what I know is that there are places that sell tasers and they often will do a hey sign up get tased
Starting point is 00:30:02 get a taser I've never heard of hey we sell pepper spray come get pepper sprayed and we'll give you a thing a pepper spray no it seems like it be bad so no no no Wait.
Starting point is 00:30:15 I want a pepper spray someone. Yeah. You want a pepper spray someone? I've sort of pepper sprayed Josh before. Really? Sort of. I know this one. What's the story?
Starting point is 00:30:24 I have a couple of non-lethal. Josh pepper sprayed himself. I have a couple of non-lethal pistols. No? Am I thinking of a different story? No, this is, I have a couple non-lethal pistols and they shoot pepper spray balls. Yeah. That hit a tree and explode.
Starting point is 00:30:39 Yeah. So I was testing them. Okay. And I shot the tree and then Josh wanted to see how strong it was. and so he was nearby the tree. Yeah, that's what I'm talking. So that's all, you're just got to be around this stuff. I want to pepper spray a deucer.
Starting point is 00:30:52 Hold on, hold on. You fired a non-lethal pepper, whatever. Pepper pepper capsule at a tree. Yes. And Josh voluntarily. Yes, he stood near the tree beforehand. It was at that tree. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:07 So, he was loitering in waiting. I'm just saying, in my opinion, that would be Josh pepper sprayed. himself it's somewhat true yes you didn't say hey josh go stand there and then trick him and like no no no yeah you pepper sprayed yourself he knew what was going to happen but he's a biology he's got a biology degree well yeah it was for science yeah and how in your opinion what were your thoughts your scientific method how did it go it was real bad and he was barely that I was not close yeah all right okay wait before you move on put the camera on the dozer's alley oh no no no a little bidding no no Jason just pulled out a pepper spray.
Starting point is 00:31:46 Or a pepper spray to the face. Just one spray. Okay. How much would you be willing to do it? You have to say the number at the same time, and this is a real number. For a pepper spray? For to take a pepper spray to the face. I just want to know what the number is that you say.
Starting point is 00:32:00 Okay. One, two, three, $15, $2,000. $1,500 is less. I'm cheaper than Josh? Wow. Hold on. Maybe. Josh.
Starting point is 00:32:11 Wow. Would you like to. You get one chance to be. Would you like to do it for $1,400? A pepper spray to the face. Would you like to do that? This is a good good question. Yeah, I'll do it for $1,400.
Starting point is 00:32:25 Oh, my. I'm out. Pepper. Sold. Get him. $1,300. $300. $1,000.
Starting point is 00:32:30 Cash. I would. Oh, my God. You know how I know I need to be out because when I said the lowest number first, I instantly regretted it. So I'm done. $1,400. Josh can have the $14.
Starting point is 00:32:42 And I really am tempted. If anybody. you guys want to go in with feet you could have won two 700 and i would have been like fifty thousand dollars it would have been a price so astronomical i'd do it for 50 000 sure yeah i know for 50 000 but yeah 1400 i'm just saying you're thinking about it spit wads i've seen i've seen if you want us to pay up this is this is the kind of thing it's awful it looks all right we'll take a break we'll do some other people Man of the People
Starting point is 00:33:24 All right Another edition of Man of the People Mike Pretty much ruled the world last time 17 points A record breaking man of the people It will never That's the Wayne Gretzky goals
Starting point is 00:33:34 I was sure I won last time Wait, wait, did Ovechkin beat that goal? Yeah, he did pass it It's the Alex Ovechkin goals The Unbreakable record Yeah
Starting point is 00:33:44 If you don't know how to play, Al Borland is going to share with us a topic that he pulled 100 people on. We will buzz in as fast or slow as we want to and try to get the first answer in the survey. Most popular. Yeah, the most popular. It's three points for the first, two for the second, one point for any other answer in the top five. And the seventh round is double points. Let's begin. All righty.
Starting point is 00:34:06 The first question, name something grandma might knit you as a gift. Oh, damn it. We got the sweater over here. Of course it's a sweater. Sweeter is the number one answer. That's... Ah, dang gum it! Mittance.
Starting point is 00:34:19 Oh, thank goodness. Mittins is the number five answer. Okay. I'm going to say, uh, like, blanket. That's a good answer. That is the number three answer. Oh. Scarf was number two.
Starting point is 00:34:29 Scarf. Oh. Harts good. Hats good. Scarf and hat. Yeah. Good start. I mean, sweater was clearly like it was just who's going to get first to get
Starting point is 00:34:38 first to get sweater. Okay. We're starting off with Andy with three points. That's enough. I've done. So Mike and I both got the same Even though I answered so much better than him Correct
Starting point is 00:34:48 You didn't get top two Yeah, mittens are you know That's a good answer All right All right next question Name a popular air freshener scent That is me I'm gonna go with
Starting point is 00:35:01 Fresh Fresh is not on the board That's ridiculous Pine Pine is the number two answer Citrus That's going to answer. Citrus is the number five answer.
Starting point is 00:35:15 What? The pine was the one that I pictured with an air freshener in a car. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Is mint one of them? Do you feel like fresh was a terrible answer? No, because I thought fresh laundry would be the number one answer. That's like all the, if I look at... Is laundry the number one answer? No, I think people were thinking more in the vein of car air fresheners like Andy was. So you had vanilla, pine, cinnamon, cherry, strawberry, citrus, and new car. You kind of answered air freshener for air freshener. Hold on, hold on. Read me the topic again. Name a popular air freshener scent.
Starting point is 00:35:50 Yeah, scent. That's a good one. I just, the problem is air fresheners are no longer cars. I know people do that in cars, but like that's not, that's not what I think of anymore. We've got to move on, Mike. No, I cannot move on from this. No, I mean, I'll move on. It was a survey.
Starting point is 00:36:09 Well, I'm just saying it's a misleading question. Mm-hmm. That's because, but you got, you got a point. If the year is 1994. I like that fresh. I'm on, I'm on Jason's side. He's not backing me up here. Yeah, no, I'm with you.
Starting point is 00:36:23 So, Fresh was my first thing because I know a lot of the sense that I buy. That's like a Frize. Yeah, Fabriz. Fabriz. And then. But you could make the argument against us, right? Like, you could say, well, that's not a scent. Yeah, except one of the answers was new car.
Starting point is 00:36:39 That's no different than the fresh. Okay, yeah, all right, you got it wrong. All right, moving on. All right, I think this one will be a little more cut and dry. All right. Third round, once a baby can crawl, name something, you make sure your house is baby proof. Oh, I think of it. Outlets.
Starting point is 00:36:54 Yes, of course, outlets. Outlets is the number two answer. Sharp Corners. Corners is the number four answer. I actually know the number one answer. What? I know it in my head. What is it?
Starting point is 00:37:07 Jason, you have four seconds. Three. It's fish hooks. Okay. I'm not falling for your trap To me it's levels Like like Like stairs
Starting point is 00:37:18 Stairs is the number one answer Boom there you go Oh stairs was? Yeah Was levels? No I said stairs before he said stairs Was pool on there? Pool was not on there
Starting point is 00:37:28 Oh okay that's what I thought Levels It was stairs Different levels Yeah But when you're playing a game like this You don't give your first word And they're like
Starting point is 00:37:36 Do you I need to elaborate rate more before and give me more answers. Listen, I'm giving it to him. This game is do-do. Stairs. So we went stairs out. No, it's levels. Is that what you knew was the number one answer? No, I thought it was pool.
Starting point is 00:37:52 Ah. Cabinets with chemicals, corners, medications, and then stove and oven. Hight. Corners. Stoven oven, they can crawl? Corners is at four? Your stove is fine, bro. What do you put them on the counter? Enjoy your brain injuries, dummies. All right. Moving on. We are really, number one. All right. We are three rounds into this.
Starting point is 00:38:10 we got Andy with seven, Jason with four, and Mike with three. It's still anybody's game here. Name another word or phrase that makes a lie sound more innocent. To be honest. He's on fire. That is not... Or honestly. No, that is not on the board.
Starting point is 00:38:30 I'm going to go with, with all due respect. That is also not on the board. I don't think we understand. I don't think you understand the question. Ignore these two. idiots. Clearly we all know what we're talking about, but let's read that one. No, no, don't read the question. Let my answer it. No, we answered based on that. You don't get a new fresh reading. No, I get a free
Starting point is 00:38:48 read. Four. I get a free read. Three, Jeremy, I get a free read. Name another word or phrase that makes a lie sound more innocent. Five, four, three, respectfully. See, we don't understand this one. Like, okay, we're going to redo this one. Okay. With a different, you're going to do it. I'll try and explain it a little better. If you're saying, I'm not, lying. I was just joking. Kidding is number four answer. Number four!
Starting point is 00:39:16 Also, you just leveled him. He didn't say that. I'm given all of you guys a chance and this is a whole new round. Okay, so say it one more time? Yeah, one more time, please. I wasn't lying. I was just exaggerating. Oh, good. I'm going to give you stretching the truth.
Starting point is 00:39:35 That's right. This is the worst question a whole time. All right, Jason. stretching that answer. I'm not lying. I just what number was that? Was that better be one. I'm sorry, stretching the truth was the number six answer. I was mistaken. Not on the board. Okay. We're going to move on. We're moving on. The first answer
Starting point is 00:39:52 was fibbing. Then white lie. Fibbing? Telling a story. How does you ask a tall tail? One hundred year old? We're moving. We're moving. No, me and Andy got a point. No points. No points. No points from that, right? We got points. We got points. We got Andy with eight, Mike and Jason tied for four. We win it's the first time.
Starting point is 00:40:09 The number one answer was fibbing. That's okay. It's okay. When is the last time? I'm fibbing. I'm fibbing. When is the last, genuine question? Genuine. When is the last time you have heard the word fibbing used?
Starting point is 00:40:22 How long ago? Your grandfather back? He's been dead for 10 years. Exactly. A long time. Fibbing. The number one answer. Go on.
Starting point is 00:40:30 Name an animal mentioned in the song, 12 days of Christmas. Doves. turtle doves is the number one answer number one of course it is a partridge that is the number two answers in a pear tree it's swans swans is the number six answer okay all right by the way if you had just said i'm thinking about this on the last question another word for lying oh that would have worked there you go another word for lying we're going on no we're not going on you're telling me literally the
Starting point is 00:41:00 the animal mentioned the most in 12 days of Christmas. Wait, you're mad about this one now? Yes. What's the first day of Christmas? I would have gone with partridge as well. On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me. A partridge and a pear tree.
Starting point is 00:41:14 And it's the number two answer. Who are you talking to? It's repeated every time you do the course. Anyway, it was the turtle dove society of America. It was partridge. It was east, calling birds, French hands, and then swans. All right. I'm still blinking green over here, by the way. All right.
Starting point is 00:41:30 It should be all set. Is this the final round? How many more rounds? We get two more rounds. Oh, man. So we got Andy with nine, Jason with seven, Mike with six. Wait, how am I not in the lead? I was like one point behind the end.
Starting point is 00:41:41 You have seven. You're in second. Did you just give the win? No, it was 8-4-4 before this. Chill out, bro. Whatever. I should be in the lead. Bad answers, bad result.
Starting point is 00:41:49 I just got the number one answer. Yeah, and you get three points for it. You got the number two answer that was put at number one. All right, moving on. Name something in a hotel room that's smaller than it is in your house. house. Wait, what? I'm going to go with a blow dryer.
Starting point is 00:42:05 I should have gone with the other one I had two. That's not on the board. What? Soap. Soap shampoo is the number three answer. A television. Television is the number two answer. I was going to lose his mind.
Starting point is 00:42:20 So I was between blow dryer and coffee maker, which of course your coffee maker in the hotel is a tiny little crappy version. What's the number one answer? Fridge. Oh, that makes sense. Are you on board with that, Mike? Yeah, I find that acceptable. Was coffee maker, at least on the list? It was the number four.
Starting point is 00:42:35 Other than not every hotel room has a fridge in it. We need a lay of the land on the score here before the final round. They all got televisions. I should be in the lead. What are the points? No, I gained on you. No, I just got, I should be in first. I think it is 10, 8.
Starting point is 00:42:49 I got multiple points. Yeah, you did. You did. It was 10-8-8-8. Mike got number two, right? Thank you. So it's 10 to 8 to 8 final round. Anybody can win.
Starting point is 00:42:59 Jason didn't get one on that. last year. That's true. 10.8.7. It should be 10.8.7. Anybody can win. Anybody can win because this round is worth double. The final round, name it animal with a fluffy tail. I'm going to go with a bunny rabbit.
Starting point is 00:43:14 That is the number one answer. Yes, I win! I have that greatest. Not necessarily. Not yet. For real? No. Hey, Andy.
Starting point is 00:43:22 Go ahead. Wait, you don't get to volunteer me. I'm sitting here. I'm trying to help you. Four. I'm trying to help you win. Three. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:43:29 Read it again, please. Dog. Read it again, please. Name an animal with a fluffy tail. Dog. Mike got dog, which is the number four answer. Number two is on the board. It's right here.
Starting point is 00:43:38 Take it home. Take it home. Kitty cat. That is the number two answer. No! No! Wait, did he win? Yeah, he did.
Starting point is 00:43:49 Oh, come on. That puts Andy at 14, Jason at 13, and Mike at 10. Count the chickens before they had. Okay, that's. straight collusion. Why were you against me? Andy is this week's man of the people.
Starting point is 00:44:05 He was against you because you celebrated after your answer. Oh, no, the people don't like it. The people don't like it at all. All right, we're taking a break and we're drafting. all right we're drafting a very fun one today we're building our own mall food court what places do you want in your mall food court the pressure of number one on this draft it feels there is a big lear one there's there's there is yeah no not in my head there are there is an actual malls there are three 101s in my opinion but i'm
Starting point is 00:44:55 going to go now is this is this your favorite place to go or is this is this your favorite place to go or Is this the most synonymous with the food court? I think you're just building your favorite food court. Just building your favorite. However you want to do it. Yeah. Oh, man. Yeah, I mean, I feel like there is pressure on your shoulders.
Starting point is 00:45:11 It's brutal. It's the first one I wrote down. Okay. It's got that orange chicken. Ah! This is panda. It's Panda Express. Of course it's Panda Express.
Starting point is 00:45:22 It does always have the longest line. Go to any food court at any time of day. It's got the longest line. And there's 100 people waiting for Panda. while every other place is open. I wonder if you did it. Walk right up to any other place, no problem. Or stand in the 10-minute line for Panda,
Starting point is 00:45:37 and everyone chooses to do that. Because Band Express. That orange chicken is delicious. Do they give the samples? Yeah, they used to. They would if there wasn't a giant line in front of them. I wonder of all the chain restaurants. Yeah, great pick.
Starting point is 00:45:52 What restaurant has the highest percentage of like mall spots? See, what's funny? Panda's got to be up there. What's funny is, there's, there's a lot. funny is there's going to be some including Panda Express there may be some youths listening to this show who
Starting point is 00:46:06 all they know is stand alone Pand Express. When we were teenagers that did not exist. That was the only place you get it. You went to the food court at the mall. That was the only place you found Panda Express. Okay. Jason, you were up. That was apparently your number one. Yeah, it was definitely my number one. I'm going to go with so many different ways to go and I've got more
Starting point is 00:46:28 unique places that I think will come up in later rounds but if I'm building my place I want two things in there I want the unhealthy Panda Express for those days then I want the healthier option at least of Chipotle on the days where I go there and I'm like
Starting point is 00:46:48 hey I want to I want to get the little salad bowl with Chipotle is in our mall food court yeah I know but it's like it's so new it's not as I I think they went restaurant first. Yeah, they did. But it's not a classic. It's a terrible pick.
Starting point is 00:47:03 I will, I mean, maybe for the draft, but also, I will say this. I will say this. Great. In a food court in the last decade, the last 10 years of my life, I have eaten more Chipoli in a food court than in the other place. So how is that a bad pick? It's just because the number one place I'm eating in a mall. If I think of a food court, I don't think of Chipotle. That's why.
Starting point is 00:47:25 That's fine. But that's fine. I'm going to two different picks here. One, I mean, this is the only place I know to get them. Oh, no. This is the only possible thing that I can have at the top of my list. It's wetzels pretzels. I'm going wettles pretzels with the dipping pretzels that are so unhealthy but so delicious with the cheese sauce that can't possibly have real cheese in it.
Starting point is 00:47:48 And my second pit. Antianns is so much better. You're done. We really. Oh, the pretzels so much better. Like, you know, I mean, what a. Stupid pick, Andy. All right.
Starting point is 00:47:59 He's feeling a little. I will tell you. He's feeling a little second place right now. The advantage does go to the Rhine. Wetzels. Yeah. What does Auntie Ann sell? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:48:09 Yeah, I don't know. Wetzels pretzels? I can tell you what they sell. Well, I mean, they, but they. Pretzels. Pretzel hot dogs. But they put pretzels in the name. That's not fair.
Starting point is 00:48:18 It's, what are you talking about? We've run a show called fantasy footballers. Man, strong counterpoint. Strong counterpoint. I know my next pick for sure My second pick is going It's tough Because I'm trying to decide
Starting point is 00:48:34 Like I'm building my ultimate food court There's a bit of a pressure To feel like I want to be balanced With like different types of food You do what you got to do man There's a lot that I want here I'm trying to think what we'll make it back through I'm going to go at the only place that I think of this
Starting point is 00:48:49 Isamall Again that's my kind of category It's Sabaro Yeah, Sabarro Pizza. Sabaro is a one-oh, it's a true one-on-one-pick. It's the classic New York slice. It's mall pizza, the classic New York slice. The genuine New York pizza.
Starting point is 00:49:07 Also, all the haters out there, y'all are dumb. Sabaros is good. It's funny. Sabroos is good pizza. If you fly to New York City, if you fly to New York City, if you fly to New York City, do it. And you go and you eat at Samarro's down near Times Square. It's freaking good. It's great.
Starting point is 00:49:25 Why do we got to complain about that? It's great. It's great. So to me, I feel amazing with Wetzel's pretzels and Sabarro. Those feel like 101-1-1-2 material. The only problem is Sabaros, first of all, I think a lot of people don't know how to say the name. It's like, is it S-Barrows? What are you doing here?
Starting point is 00:49:44 Give me the pizza. The Wetzel pretzel has pretzel in the name, which we realized is pretty important. And therefore, I'm going to take a synup on. Yes. You know what it is. That's a quality pickup and respect. It's pretty much only in food courts. And, oh, my goodness, I'm going to go, you want to know why?
Starting point is 00:50:03 You want to take a nap for four days? I wonder why I went to Chipotle? Because I know where I'm going next. I'm going to do the healthy food so I can get the cinnabone in my belly. It's just so good. Extra icing. You're going to get the healthy big burrito at Chipotle. It's a salad bowl.
Starting point is 00:50:19 Okay. And then you go to Cineabon and sleep for days. Yeah. All right, Mike, you've got Panda Express and two, all right what are you going with uh the first one we're going to go with a mall it's a staple it's the 90s oh no we're all for every there's so many places it just just say it my list has 50 things rip off the band-aid i mean you need a walking around oh you need a you need a cold frosty beverage no no no no no no julia yeah baby yeah no no no no no no no
Starting point is 00:50:54 No, no, no. Of course. It's the only place that exists in the world, and it's the best of all the sugary places. It is such a weird freaking company. It makes no sense that this. It feels like it could be a front for the mob. They have to be a money laundering. There's no way they make money running Orange Julius places. That's why they've merged. If I could. That's a great mall pick. It's a great one. I mean, it was, so Orange Julius versus Sinbad, two deserty options. Both great picks. both great i would take orange julius 100 out of 100 times i love orange julius well 99 of 100 because you you bypassed it played and 98 because you passed it twice i played and lost a game i thought orange julius wouldn't even be by a point i see i thought it wouldn't even be on your guys is like i don't know because it's not food it's like you get a little it's a food come on come on man no i know
Starting point is 00:51:46 not amateurs i realize my mistake he has a 1600 dollar coffee table book about malls all right Yeah, the expert has won this. Made of gold leaf. All right, Mike, you've got a third pick here. Panda and Orange, Julius, you got a powerhouse so far. We got a strong start. Honestly, I don't know how popular this will be wide, but this is my draft. I know exactly what you're going to put.
Starting point is 00:52:10 Do you? Yeah. How many words are in your answer here? Is it five? I know what it is. Oh, man. I know what it is. It's five.
Starting point is 00:52:19 Let me write it down over here. There's some conjunctions in there. It is the Great Steak and Potato Factor. Yeah, that's what I was writing right there. It's funny because what I thought you were going to pick when I said three, I thought you were taking Charlie's Philly Steaks. Oh. Still the steak. Charlie's is same thing, though.
Starting point is 00:52:35 Don't hear what I'm not saying. Charlie's is good. Charlie's is not great steak and potato factory. I don't, that place. That place is, like, I don't know if it's everywhere or not. But it is. I don't know the popularity. But that is the most.
Starting point is 00:52:48 Docers do you guys in on great steak. That is the most mall place ever. the heads, okay. You can get that buffalo chicken. Oh, my gosh, the buffalo chicken. I think it's the great steak and potato company. It is. Oh, it is the company. Oh, thank you. Thank you for the correction. Did you say factory? I did. Why not? The factory produces stuff for the company for the company. But great steak. If you see one and you've never been there, go get yourself a buffalo chicken, Sammy. And have the time of your life. And just live. They are, they are very good. He out your body. All right. All right. I'm going to, I'm going to have to go back to the well here of just
Starting point is 00:53:22 great places that are often found in food courts like McDonald's. Maybe. Maybe it will be. Like Chipotle, which is, Chipolis are everywhere, not just in malls. I feel like some of these places, you can pretty much only find them in malls. Sure. But I'm running a little low on those. So I'm just going to take a place that's great that is in malls all over the place and that is closed on Sundays. Yep. Give me Chick-fil-A. I wasn't sure. Give me that. Give me that. Also, You are alliteration factory here. You've got Chipotle, Sinnebun, and Chick-Flay.
Starting point is 00:53:55 So keep that in mind with your last bitch. Thank you. Charlie's Philly steak. Yeah, that might be your pick. This is also a note to the youths because Chick-fil-A, Chick-fil-A is a restaurant now that you go to. Who wrote this in here? Who wrote this in our show, Doc? Did I spell it wrong? He put Chick-fil-A with a K.
Starting point is 00:54:11 Um, yeah. All right. But anyways, once upon a time, we told tale of the Metro Center. Is that how you do it? Is that how you spell it? I think it's C-I or C-H-I-C. Is it C-H-I-K? Is it C-K?
Starting point is 00:54:26 I'm seeing C-H-I-C-K. No. Oh, yeah, it's C-K. Yeah, yeah. It's a chick. I thought they left one of the letters out. Did they rebrand? It's the Phil A part you're thinking of.
Starting point is 00:54:36 Phil A. Phil A. Anyways, go on. So we, Metro Center. Did they rebrand? No. Metro Center is, it's about like, it's like a 15 to 20-minute drive for us, which when you're young is,
Starting point is 00:54:52 also known as in eternity. But this was the only Chick-fil-A in Arizona that I knew of for ever. And it was like, it was truly a, it was a special treat that you actually got to go eat
Starting point is 00:55:09 chick-fil-A. I actually was going to say that earlier. It's funny because a lot of these places don't have good food. But it's good food when you're in the mall. Yeah. It's like it's a magical different, like, oh my gosh, I can get pizza in the mall.
Starting point is 00:55:21 So Barrow's is have. Do you know, we have a Panda Express. We have two Panda Expresses very close to our house. Trash food. I would never eat it. But I would never order it. My kids want to order all the time. Of course not. Not allowed. If you're at a mall. Oh, it's a gourmet. It's a delicacy. I mean, Panda most of the time. I mean, it's so good. It's mall food. My favorite. Yeah, absolutely. My final two picks here. I have Wetzels, Pretz. Wait, wait. Wait. Oh, yeah, J. Tick Chick-Fillay. I've got two. I've got two. left. I have them lined up. There's two more on the list. Can I have Dairy Queen?
Starting point is 00:55:58 Yeah, of course. All right. I've got I understand your question because Dairy Queen, it's not Orange Julius Dairy Queen. That's honestly, I feel like. You're cool with them separate? I'm cool with them separate because Mike screwed up. He should have taken them both. Because I would have, we would of course
Starting point is 00:56:14 allow to Dairy Queen in Orange Julius Gomba. I think there's a little something about getting Julius, the mall. Yeah. I'm going Dairy Queen. And the second pick, again, not sure how this company exists in other ways. Maybe mail-order catalogs are still working out for them. It's Mrs. Fields. Sharper image. Oh. Oh, Mrs. Fields. That was going to be my last pick. Was it? Yeah. What is his fields? Yep. We have got malls on lockdown to cookie company of the malls. What happened? What happened to cookies and
Starting point is 00:56:45 malls? I don't know, man. Bring them back. Please vote for Andy. you love you love mrs fields mrs fields i've never heard of it or seen of it any place other than the mall and i think they're gone yeah they do they exist anymore i don't know if they exist anymore because they all shut down even in the malls that are running at chandler fashion center paul brother their cookies are outrageously perfect i don't want these crumble cakes that are you know i want a sliver of the cookie. I want to eat a bag of a hundred little mini cookies. You want them flat. These are grandma's
Starting point is 00:57:22 cookies. Daggummit, great pick. All right. All right. Are you going to go alliteration or what do you got for your final pick? No, I don't think I'm going to go alliteration because there's not a lot of great seas left. I mean, I'm looking out here and it's like, oh.
Starting point is 00:57:37 You're not really in on there. That's a fine. It's okay. Charlie's would be great. Charlie's a good pick. Charlie's Steaks is on my list. It's on my list as well. Garbage food. great in them all. It would have been on my list as well, but it's just identical. Unless they want to sponsor the show in which case I love it. It's like me taking... It is not identical. It's like me taking
Starting point is 00:57:53 Annie Ann's. Like, I love Annie Ann's, but you've got Wetzel's pretzel. Yeah, no, no, no. So what are you going to go with? I'm going to go with my comp, it might be weird, but the same thing for your cookie shop, it is identically the same where, one, I don't know of any mall that has it anymore. This company might not even be around, but there is nostalgia and it doesn't exist. Anywhere out side of a food court. It's hot dog on a stick. That was my
Starting point is 00:58:18 other last pick. Hot dog on a stick, baby. You go by and they got those stupid hats, they got the lemonade. Look at me, as bad. I didn't like Chip all over. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I love this pick. Thank you, man. This is a mall pit. Hot dog on a stick. Hot dog on a stick. Put me in a time machine. Yeah. They're not calling this a corn dog. No. It's a hot dog. I'm going to stick. Literally. Literally, never eaten there. Never eaten there. But I was going to take it because it is it is synonymous. It is synonymous with mall life.
Starting point is 00:58:51 All food. Mike is running out of picks. This may be a stupid question, but is that the one that was in Stranger Things? It's what they kind of like replicated, I think. I don't think it was. It was like that the, yeah, they have the silly hats and then it was the red, I think it's a red, yellow blue outfit. It's outstanding. No sleeves.
Starting point is 00:59:11 Yeah. It was right next to the Nintendo store at Metro's. center and oh man okay so now now the the list has really dwindled i have one more on my list that i thought i was going to end up having to take but you guys left me the best pick so oh man um oh oh he's out he's out no i just this i don't even know if people even know what this is but it's it is currently in arrowhead mall which which is our big mall, that still actually exists and have, it has humans at it. And it's, it's, it's not as good as Panda.
Starting point is 00:59:55 It's right next to Panda. Okay. It's Tokyo Grill. Yeah. Okay. See. They do the same. I feel it's more consistent.
Starting point is 01:00:02 I figured the response was going to be very lukewarm to Tokyo Grill. But here's the thing. Tokyo Grill is awesome. Okay. It is. I've never seen someone order there. I've eaten there. I've eaten there before.
Starting point is 01:00:14 I've been there. I didn't see it. Here's the thing. Again, I don't know if that's nationwide. It's like you're trying to eat, like, let's say you're at the mall and you're trying to at least be somewhat health conscious. Terriaki over there? Yeah, it's like, you can go get, you can go get a terriarchy chicken, extra meat. Don't do the sauce. And just, and you can have a, and it's like, it's this, it is an overwhelming plate of delicious grilled chicken. It's too much food. It shouldn't be. It's way too much food. All right, I have an answer to the hot dog on a stick Stranger Things question. Okay. Because I was like, was it? I'm looking it up. The place they work was not. No, that was the ice change.
Starting point is 01:00:51 Yeah. But it is definitely in Stranger Things for the blink of an eye during a scene when they're like running in the mall. They pass a hot dog on a stick. Because you have to. That's great. Yeah, because it was in every mall at that time. Does your coffee table book have pictures of like the stores? I mean, the stores are.
Starting point is 01:01:08 I'll give you $1,500 for it. it's just it's dude i'll give you 1400 to josh you get to mace him oh that's true this book is so wild give you five thousand dollars i mace you and i take the book and you're just deal by the way my my only pick i really had left was kind of the i had cold stone but a cold stone's good i had jamba juice yeah but it was kind of like the sub jambah jillias orange julius jambah juice isn't a mall place to me it's it's so new It's its own thing I didn't really have anything else

Man, did we learn anything?
Starting point is 01:02:43 I learned, I mean, I learned about Jason's pepper spray experience. I learned that for $1,400, I can pepper spray Papa Josh right in the face. And if I did that, I'd be ruthless. I bet you could talk him down to 12. Is it one spray for $1,000? Okay. We'll catch you next time. Goodbye.
Starting point is 01:03:05 Bye. Thanks for listening to the Spitballers podcast. To see what other nonsense the guys are up to, check out spitballerspod.com.
