If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration. It would not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat. Just hang in there. Yeah, it would not be. Right, it wouldn't be that.

There's a lot of luck. Listen to Thanks Dad on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. If you're listening to this podcast for the first time ever, the part one is always the radio show. It is what went over the air. Part two is a podcast. And it is just us doing this sometimes for an hour, sometimes less. I think today it will probably be a bit less. No Amy today. I do think she'll be back tomorrow. Eddie went home sick today. I know Eddie did not get it from. Amy because they have not been in the same proximity for a couple of weeks. So it is me, lunchbox, Morgan, Abby, Ramundo, and Scuba Steve. So, you know what that means? Is it classic rock?

Scuba? What's next? So tonight, we're doing the one we talked about last week, that touch peel stand from Days of the New. Okay, that's a good one. Yeah, that is, though. Yeah, then I'm going to do, by your request, I'm going to do POD for next week. I don't think I requested that, did?

I think I was just singing it. We were singing it. And Eddie didn't know it, so I feel like, why not do that one? Yeah, that's a good one. We are, we are. Youth of a nation. Morgan, do you know that song? No, I have no idea.

You guys might as well be speaking another language. Oh, wow. We are. We're speaking 2000s. That's the language. We're speaking 2000s. Okay, a couple things. Tonight's Powerball drawing is up to $750 million.

I've been jaded by the Powerball. Because if it's not a billion, I'm like, I don't even want to be interested. in it. But I would cut off a pinky toe for $5 million. But it's $750 million. I'm like, I don't know. Should this have made the news? I'm not playing it. Lunchbox, are you playing it? Yeah, I'm playing. I got $100 worth of tickets. Would you have played it anyway? Do you play it regardless of where it is? Yeah, but I don't put that much money. $100 is a big jump in on the power ball. I mean, because if you think $100, you're like basically a Mark Cuban.

You take $100 and turn it into $750 million. People look at $100. at you different. They look at you as, wow, you're the luckiest person ever. I think Mark Cuban, you don't think he's lucky. You think he, well-informed, educated, strategized, risk-taker, that kind of stuff, you know? Yeah, but he did get lucky with his job and being the one that had to open the shop and no one being at the shop and him having time to read the manual. I think that's him doing, it doesn't matter.

It's not something I really want to get into here, not a big luck guy. But. Yeah, so this could be my last podcast. It's the 10th largest prize ever. The cash value is estimated at 338.6 million. So that's a full cash value. That means after taxes and after you get the lump sum, the odds of winning are 1 and 292.2 million.

The drawing is tonight. CBS News. Man, that'd be cool. Do you think there are things that you can do to shift your odds of winning, many things you can say are ways you can act? Man, I've tried. I've tried the lottery gods. I've given homeless people money as I walk into the store.

I bought them a bag of, you know, I've done different things, gone to different gas stations. And there is something I just haven't figured out what it is yet. Like I've tried them all. Let me propose it. Let me propose one. Because I did say if Arkansas makes the college football playoff, which is the top 12 teams, I would give somebody random $10,000 just in cash. I think if you commit to if you win, you give you give 20% of the lump sum to us on the show to split.

Oh, how much is that? Well, I threw the paper away, but... Hold on, hold on, 300-something million. Let's just go 300... Let's just say it's 250 million. All right. What is... 10% of that would be 25.

What did you say? I've got to give you 20% of 300 million. I'll let you do the math. Yeah. So 10% of 300 million would be 30 million. Oh, my gosh. So, two, is 60 million. Oh, my gosh.

Would you give us 60 million if you hit? And I think by you committing to this, it could actually affect if you win tonight. Now, do you get even amounts or do I get to distribute it? No, it has to be, it has to be distributable to everybody. Like Abby gets a dollar, you know. No, it has to be distributable to everybody here in this room and the glass room right now. So that would leave me with how much?

240 million. Is that even enough for you though? That's the question. It may not be enough. That's a question, man. You go from 750 million, whatever you see. You don't go from 750. You go from 300.

Down to 300. and then down to 240. I mean, I'd do it. Okay. So I need you to commit to this and say it and say this is not a bit. You commit to it. If you do win, we are getting it. Go ahead.

If I hit the Powerball jackpot on August 25th, 2025, and I win all $700 million, I will give the show 20%. Okay. We're all in, boys. we didn't have to pay it for that one. But it'd be worth it if you do hit. It's so worth it. So worth it.

I mean, goodness, I could have a chauffeur. I could have a chef. We'd all get like $8 million. That's pretty good. Yeah, that's not bad, man. And then you guys would all be thanking me every day for your riches. That would be cool, too. Unless they would thank me for negotiating this deal.

Oh. Morgan? I'm in it. You really didn't want to give anybody. You really didn't want to give anybody the money. to your mansion, would you be thinking lunchbox got me this? I mean, yeah, I don't know that I'd be going

to like a mansion. I don't know what I would do with all that money, but yeah, I would definitely be like, this is pretty cool. I got some free money just because lunchbox was so enticed by the idea of winning. I think you'd be like, I'm so glad that Bobby negotiated this from him when he didn't want to give us anything. I would be thinking both. But I'd get 51% of the credit, right?

You can have that. I'll take 49th. Yeah, yeah. Southwest Airlines is tightening up its longstanding customer of size policy, starting January 27th of next year, the same day the airline rolls out assigned seating, refunds for a second C will only be given if the flight isn't sold out. Both seats are bought in the same fair class, and so a refund is requested within 90 days. So the airline now requires anyone who can't fit between two armrest to purchase an extra seat up front rather than leaving it optional. Okay, so let me get this straight. So now you have to buy two seats and you can get a

refund? Is that what this is? Yeah, if there's an empty seat next to you, like if the plane doesn't get sold out. Got it. You can get a refund. You can get a refund for that for. But they're changing that then because of assigned seating. You have to buy that seat so they can't sell it so you don't get a refund. I think that's what it's saying, yes. Got it. I saw the other Menendez brother did not get paroled. Dang, they both got shut down. Yeah, I listened to the, um, I guess it was the first one. Eric, I listen to the audio from the, what do you call it? The parole hearing. Man, it was awesome.

Yeah. Why? What happened? Well, you just hear the guy going, you know, and, you know, it's like, we took this into account and then your behavior in prison and we don't think you're ready for parole. And he just tells them the reasons like you think you're above the law, basically, because he was sneaking cell phones into the prison. and he was like,

they can wait three more years, five more years, or 15 more years is what they could implement until they can have another parole hearing and the judge or whatever it is in there. I don't even know who the person is, said you can reapply in three years. All right.

Mark Garagos, the lawyer for Eric and Lyleman, and as is speaking out after both brothers were denied parole following separate hearings. Boy, they were so optimistic that they were both getting out. So then I expect at least one of them to get out, and they both were told no. The lawyer claims the parole process was rigged, saying that if the public saw what happened during the hearings, quote, there would be a revolution.

He criticized commissioners for unfair reasoning, pointing out that during Lyle's hearing, his cell phone usage was compared to gang activity, even though such devices are widely available in prisons through official and unofficial channels. That is from Eonline. Yeah, I was surprised. Again, I was only surprised because of how often. optimistic the family was. And also I'll add to that, all of the new attention paid onto them because of the series. One, the docu-series and the two, I think there was a series two that was

with actors, right, Mike? Yeah, there was. Yeah. So I thought with that, because it did give new perspective to people that maybe didn't know about the case from way back in the day that they were abused and if that had caused them to act in that way to murder their freaking family. Can I ask a question? Because I really don't have much information. Might not know the educated answer, but give it to me. Yeah, I mean, I just don't know much about this case, I guess, besides what's been in the news recently. So to my understanding, they were adults who were moved out of the house and it happened, or they were kids when they did it.

One was 18, one was 21. They were rich kids. I think one of them maybe was still there. Yeah, I think the 18-year-old was still there. Yeah. And so they hid and killed them. and so the question was about all of the abuse that they suffered from the dad do they feel like their dad was still abusive? Could he have been more abusive to them?

Was he abusive to other people? All of this unfolded. I won't even say it unfolded during the real trial to the public because it was weird. We only had like one channel that talked about the trial on the news. So you really didn't get all the specific details. Maybe you heard it once and they moved off of it. But I think later on it became more of let's look at it for. from the perspective of these kids who are being abused.

Yes, they did murder their parents, but does any of this justify any of that? And I guess it didn't. I don't know enough about it to have an opinion on it. But I don't know if that answers your question. Yeah, no, it does. And then to our understanding, the only thing that they did in prison that was bad

is that they were bringing in cell phones? You have to ask lunchbox that. He heard the commissioner talking. They did other, they weren't models. I just wonder what all that means. But they're saying that means you had to pay someone off. You had to put, you know, because that can order, you know, not saying they were ordering hits, but they were like, you can order, you know, drugs to be delivered.

You can order someone to be attacked outside of prison. We don't know what you're doing with the cell phones. Got it. And so it just provides a dangerous thing for the guards is what they're saying. And they're saying, obviously, you don't think the rules apply to you. Okay. Yeah, I just have no information on them. Imagine if you're famous in jail.

You wouldn't think the rules applied to you, right? Well, especially after they didn't they have a whole series about them. Yeah, because I'm sure you're treated differently. Like, you don't think that Tiger Kings treated differently. I did see where he posted a deal that was like, all right, we're trying to get out. He's been saying that forever, but he did post that, like, his, it won't be a pardon. You can be pardoned. You can be, you sentence can be commuted.

And I think he just will take anything to get out. And I think he still has hope that they'll let him out. But there's really no benefit to. put them out. Like with the, the Chrisleys, they only got, they didn't get let out because they were innocent. They got let out because their daughter worked for the president. That's it. If you're rich and you're connected, you wear, have the whole world. It can be put to you on a silver platter. The most annoying thing was when they would show the videos the Chrisley's getting out of jail playing like praise music, like Jesus let him out of jail. That's the biggest, that's the biggest

crock or crap. Because they didn't, they didn't do anything to get out of jail except the daughter knew Trump. That's it. Now, listen, if I knew Trump and my parents were in jail, I'll be trying to squeeze that out too. Of course, who wouldn't? But they weren't like let off. They weren't, they're not innocent. Yeah, that's bull crap. That being said, I would have taken advantage with the bull crap, but that's a bull crap. Does anybody think that wasn't bull crap, by the way? Yeah. Everybody feels like it's pretty shady, right? Yeah. Yeah, I mean, it's definitely weird that it just all of a sudden happened. Well, it's just like if you're connected,

this is generally in life. If you're connected, things are going to happen for you. A whole wadis, you're in a whole lot better. I just got irritated at them. They were like, yep, Jesus let us out.

Jesus didn't, okay, Jesus put you in. Didn't they do like podcast episodes too when they got out? I never watched it. Oh, they're doing it all. They got a new show coming out. And listen, I don't hate them for that.

I actually like Todd. So I have no, this isn't anything personal, but and also I'll say if I was connected I would have yes same but they were only let out not because they found a flaw in the system there was no flaw in the system it's if you're connected you get things so you're not you don't they got so basically they served because they were guilty and then they got acquitted which they pardon no they didn't get acquitted okay so they got pardoned so which just means they just get out it doesn't mean that they got like

There wasn't a trial to show that they were innocent, right? They just got let out. Correct. That's correct. The president, and listen, every president pardons people, especially, usually it's the end of the term. Usually it's the end of eight years when you're out, or the four when you don't get re-election,

or if you're connected, if you're super connected. Yeah, that's wild. That's wild. Yeah, and you know what's crazy about the Menendez brothers, not to go back to that, but they didn't find. They need to know Trump. they didn't get busted until six months later. Yeah.

Like that's unbelievable. Like they were like trying to like pin it on business contacts saying, oh, we came home and we found the bodies like this. Yeah. I just wonder when they find out who killed John Bonnet. Like where that one thread is. We're never going to find out. With some DNA. Well, who knows?

But what is it that we, that we haven't uncovered? We like I'm involved in the process. what is it that people haven't uncovered that is there we just haven't seen yet? They haven't seen, or they haven't put the pieces together. Or it's going to wait until someone's deathbed until they, this is how I look at it. That too. I feel like either it's someone that's in the know and they have connections at the police department that are like, all right, you know what I mean? We're not going to do anything.

I don't know. I feel like the whole thing is shady and there's people that know people in powerful positions. And that's why we don't know who did it. The deathbed thing would be interesting, though, because they're going to say something and someone's going to go, oh, well, that makes sense now because we saw this and just didn't put this and this together. Like, there are some pieces somewhere that aren't connected yet. And, yeah, there are a few of those. I wonder how many cold cases there are like that. Like the biggest cold cases, you know what I mean, where they've gone on for decades.

The thing about that one, though, and the reason that that one is a very famous case is because she's a little. pretty white girl. You've seen those, right? Where like blonde white women get all the news coverage and minorities don't get any. So I would imagine there are millions, millions, maybe a million, I don't know, I don't have no idea how many cold cases there are. But we really only hear about the ones that are, like, you can rattle them off. And like Natalie Holloway, those type of cases, but they just never actually make it to us because the news knows that it's not going to get a lot of clicks or views. But yeah. Natalie Holloway, man.

I remember that. That's a crazy one. And finally, Yorne Vandersluet was a dude, right? Yeah. And finally he went to jail because I think he admitted it. I think he killed another chick. Yep.

That's right. I think he was in jail, right? Yeah. For killing the other girl. Yeah, he was in a different prison. Then he finally said, you know what? I'll tell you what happened. And I guess he admitted it.

And here's a crazy part. One of my neighbors was on that trip that had happened. Really? Yeah, we were just talking like. How did that never come up? well I mean it was just at a backyard barbecue and he was just like we I don't know how we got on the topic but he's like yeah we were seniors together and that was it I mean we didn't really talk about he was like in the next morning it was just like oh there's she's someone's missing and we flew back to the United States and that was really it like he didn't really know her but he was on the trip a win is a win a win a win I don't care what I'm saying yep that's me clipper Taylor the 4th you might have seen the skits the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football, or my career in sports media. Well, somewhere along the way, this platform became bigger than I ever imagined.

In 2023, former bachelor star Clayton Eckerd found himself at the center of a paternity scandal. The family court hearings that followed revealed glaring inconsistencies in her story. This began a years-long court battle to prove the truth.

You doctored this particular test twice in so much, correct? I doctored the test ones. It took an army of internet detectives to crack the case. I wanted people to be able to see what their tax dollars were being used for. sunlight's the greatest disinfected. They would uncover a disturbing pattern. Two more men who'd been through the same thing.

Greg Alespian and Michael Marantini. My mind was blown. I'm Stephanie Young. This is Love Trap. Laura, Scottsdale Police. As the season continues, Laura Owens finally faces consequences. Ladies and gentlemen, breaking news at Americopa County as Laura Owens has been indicted on fraud charges.

And in this new season of the Girlfriends, Oh my God, this is the same man. A group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist. I felt like I got hit by a truck.

I thought, how could this happen to me? The cops didn't seem to care. So they take matters into their own hands. I said, oh, hell no. I vowed. I will be his last target. He's going to get what he deserves. Listen to the girlfriends. Trust me, babe.

My next guest, you know from Step Brothers Anchorman, Saturday Night Live, and the Big Money Players Network. It's Will Ferrell. Woo, woo, woo, woo. My dad gave me the best advice ever. I went and had lunch with them one day, and I was like,

and dad, I think I want to really give this a shot. I don't know what that means, but I just know the groundlings. I'm working my way up through, and I know it's a place that come look for up-and-coming talent. He said, if it was based solely on, talent, I wouldn't worry about you, which is really sweet. Yeah. He goes, but there's so much luck involved. And he's like, just give it a shot.

He goes, but if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit. If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration. It would not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat. Just hang in there. Yeah, it would not be. Right. It wouldn't be that.

There's a lot in luck. Listen to Thanks, Dad, on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. There was a story I saw, too, and speaking of going on trips, the pickpocket and she grabbed the girl by the ponytail. Oh, yeah, that's crazy. Awesome. Yeah, so I saw it on TikTok, but an American tourist in Venice wasn't having it when her purse was nabbed by a pickpocket. Fortunately, she had the find my friend's feature on her AirPods and was able to track the whereabouts of the purse. When she found the purse and the thief who stole it, she grabbed the pickpocket by the

ponytail and held it for an hour until police arrived. I mean, I did it. It's hard to get out of a ponytail grab. But I think I could. If someone's holding my ponytail, I'm going to get out of that ponytail grab. Not by running. Yeah, but that girl was little. Yeah, she was like 13 or 14.

It was like, and her friend was trying to block the camera. What's up, Morgan? It's so ballsy of her to like turn around and be like, I'm going to go after my pickpocket her when you knew there was multiple of them. But I mean, I guess I heard her saying like she just wanted her. passport, which I get it if you're stranded in a country without your passport. Yes, of course. That would probably make me do something crazy too.

You guys see anything good on TikTok lately? That's the new thing. I've been watching a lot of like people jump off things. I hate heights, but for some reason it's now in my feet of like people like going down big slides and like jumping off high things. I watch these people go up in a hot air balloon and they go up, but they have a trampoline on the rope below the hot air balloon. So they're above the clouds and they're all jumping.

jumping on the trampoline below it. Like there's a couple people in the balloon and everybody's jumping on the trampoline below it. And I'm like, oh my God, this balloon's like going up and down bouncing. And then they all jump off and skydive off the trampoline. It's a crazy video.

Like I watched that one was kind of blown away by it. But the thing is, if you just watch one, then it sends you 72 right after that. And then I was just on that for a minute. Like all this stuff. I watch, there's a guy named, I think it might be Brad. Brad in China.

And Brad lives in China. He teaches English. He's an American guy. and he's like, this is my life in China. I'll just show you guys. Like mostly what you see. America ain't real. It's like they're just showing you that China is the bad guy.

But here it is. And he lives in, I forget the name of the city. But he goes to work, walks around at night, shows the streets. Like old people are like doing Tai Chi at 8 o'clock at night. No crime. He shows the subway. Man, it's clean. It is clean over there.

I've been watching Brad and China too. Those are the two things that I've been watching on my TikTok. lately. Brad and China and people jumping off crazy stuff. Morgan, anything from here? Yeah, so I wonder it's because I just got back from like theme parks, but I've been watching Cedar Points newest roller coaster that people got stuck on.

They basically stall all the way at the top and then there's a huge drop that happens and there was these people that got stuck on the very, very top and had to like ladder climb all the way down. And that was crazy. No way. Yeah, and this coaster is like one of the biggest ones. They had to ladder climb

down. Yeah, and you had to see, you saw these rescue people go up and they're tying. I'm like, I'm pretty sure that's more terrifying than just being on the coaster and going on the drop. So did they put, like, harnesses on them, each of them individually going down a ladder? Or were they like, guys, climb. You just got to go and climb down. I think they had some version of, not like a rope, but all you could kind of see is like some version of a rope around them, but they didn't have straight up harnesses. Because I don't think they had enough for as many people were on there. But they were stalled up there for a while. Dude, that sucks. Yeah. And it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's,

It's a high roller coaster. It's supposed to be like one of the newest one. There's that. And then speaking of like, you were watching Clean, there's this island that's off the coast of Africa that has a thousand people that live on it. But it's like, I don't know, this is not the right number, but 50 square feet. And there's only one toilet, one church, one barber shop. And they all choose to live here because there's like some magical fish that are near the island.

Have you ever seen those blue zones, Morgan? You know what I'm talking about? Where they like live forever. Yep. And then they go back and then they find reasons why the people live forever. And it could be small things like there's a certain potato that grows there. Or one of the blue zones was is in Asia and old people live longer. And because they didn't have chairs.

Part of the thing was they didn't have chairs. So they sat on the ground. But what happened with these old people, I'm talking about like 80, 90 years old. Since they didn't have chairs, they had to constantly activate their core to stand up. So to sit down, to stand up, they had to keep those muscles moving and going. Therefore, they didn't fall and break stuff. Their muscles were stronger, longer. They lived longer.

Like a lot of those things. I wonder if that fish area is one of the blue zones. I'm going to tell you, I'd rather die a little early and have my bathroom now. Yeah, you'd want to share one toilet with 99, 99 other people. I got to think they're not using the toilet, though. I got to think for the most part, if that's the case, there's one toilet. Pretty much everybody's peeing on trees and pooping in holes. Well, and they said, like, that one toilet, the sewage.

goes into the water where the fish are. So like... Oh, they're poop fish? Yeah. It's crazy. He did this whole YouTube video on it, and I was just amazed. Anything on TikTok and like that box? I did see something on an amusement ride.

It was like, I don't know, it was like this big wheel. And there was this... I don't know why they weren't wearing seatbelts. They were just holding onto the bars behind them. And this dude, I mean, he's a massive man, I would say, obese. And it is bouncing him up and down. He's falling over. His pants are falling down.

Really funny, but no, I don't follow anybody in particular, but that was the funniest video I'd seen in a while. Speaking of fish, a fisherman in Florida is recovering after being bitten by a shark while posing for a photo with the shark during a fishing trip. He and his friends went and they caught what they call a lemon shark. I don't know what that is off the coast. And they took the hook out,

and he held the shark up for a picture, and it jerked free, bit him on the leg, fell in the water and swam off. Oh my gosh, a lemon shark is 11 foot And it's 220 pounds That's huge Don't you think before you take the picture with that fish You're making sure it's dead

Or tape his mouth shut Yeah, I don't know if duct tape's gonna hold his mouth shut But yeah, emergency crews arrived 10.55 p.m. found him with a severe leg injury Treat him with a tourniquet, medical care He's gonna be okay But yeah Look what I got to get the shot

The fish not only bit him Then went back home Like he got his prize and went back home It feels like karma, you know? A beef bandit. Well, you know, you just, I don't know, you're killing an animal and it bites back. It's karma. They were just taking a picture.

He was probably going to toss it back. Catch and release. If somebody caught me, I try to bite him. That's true. I try to kill him. If somebody caught me with a rope and pulled me in and took a picture with me, I didn't know what was about to happen. I'm going to do everything I can't possible to make them feel all the pain they can feel. Exactly.

Justice for the shark. Justice for the lemon shark is what I say. All right. Beef Bandit is next. A beef bandit in Louisiana, also my nickname at college, the beef bandit, was arrested after stealing hundreds of dollars worth of meat from Walmart by stuffing it in his pants. A beef bandit was arrested. The Livingston Parish Sheriff's Office said dispatchers received a call Wednesday morning about a man who left Walmart

without paying for the items, only to return and try again. They went in and they found 300 bucks in meat all in his clothes. I get it. Meets got a high resale value. It does, though. We don't know it's been next to his dong. You just know that there's meat, like meat where the expiration date's still on it, and you buy it. Where do you sell that?

Yeah. Do you just like sell it in the parking lot? Yep. You sell it anywhere. You'd sell anything else. Like in Mount Pine, they used to steal stuff and they'd drive up and just do drive sales. Hey, you want speakers? It was a big thing before it started to be fake speakers. It was stolen stuff.

Yeah. So there was also a guy that drove around and sold meat, but I don't know if he stole it, but it was bad meat. Like you would pay money for it and then the meat would like fall apart. So I think he was buying it and then just selling it, but it was really bad. See, that's what I would, like, I feel like I'd get sick if I'm buying meat from out of a car. A woman in Milwaukee's facing a felony charge after causing around $10,000 in damages to a DoorDash driver's vehicle over a failed chicken wings order. Dang, she must have really been looking forward to those wings. I know what it's like to really look forward to an order and then it's wrong or they forget something.

That sucks. That's a sucky feeling. but I never wanted to beat up somebody's car because of it. On July 11th, driver Faith Morris picked up a late-night food delivery, but couldn't complete it when her phone service was cut off. She said she waited outside the customer's home and then headed back, and then that's when the person became enraged. She tracked Morris to her home and then smashed her car with a tire iron

and threw a brick, shattering windows. Like she pursued vengeance. Yeah. Yeah, I thought it was going to be in like her, you know, driveway or something of the delivery. Dang, People Magazine with that story. Hey, what was the, I saw you eating all that food at the fair Morgan. How was that? I had fried butter and fried cookie dough. I saw the fried butter in your story. I didn't know, I can't eat butter anymore because of my dairy issue,

but I didn't know what the pill of fried butter is by itself, because I never eat butter that's not fried by itself. So why would I want to eat fried butter? I don't know. I saw it and I was like, I feel like I have to try this just for the sake of trying it. And it tasted, like I would have thought it would be a butterstick and it was just a butterstick. deep fried, but it was kind of like a little slice of butter, and then they fried it, and it tasted like a really buttery homemade roll is really what it ended up tasting like. So it's more than just butter. Yeah.

It feels like it takes, because again, I wouldn't eat butter, not fried, and any of the other stuff that I would eat fried, like fried ice cream, fried pickles, fried. I would eat it originally before it's fried. Just the frying makes it more appealing. Yeah, right. But butter I wouldn't eat, not fried. And that's how I was. but I was like, I'm here, and I was going to get the fried cookie dough anyway,

so I was like, I'm going to try the fried better just to see why they even do this. And it tasted so much better than I was anticipating, honestly. How was the fried cookie dough? Oh, my gosh. The fried cookie dough, yeah, I would eat that fried cookie dough if I had no repercussions every day of my life. It was so good. Had powdered sugar on it. Yeah, it was really good.

Yeah, it's hard to go wrong with powdered sugar, really on anything. I know. There was so much fried things. Like, I really think they've taken every single food group and just said, we're going to fry it. They've probably tried, right, frying everything, because it's not like there are many food rules at the fair. There isn't.

You can experiment away with, let me ask my assistant here. Because I think... How do you do butter without it melting? I would imagine you freeze it, kind of like cookie dough, you freeze it, and then you... Oh, that's a good question. Is that what happened with cookie dough? They freeze it?

That's what I suspect that they do. Yeah, I remember having fried beer at the Texas state fair and they freeze it. Yeah. Fried beer, huh? Was that good, Mike? It was pretty good. Yeah, see.

Hello, can you give me some of the more interesting things that have been fried at different state fairs across the United States? Absolutely. State fairs are kind of legendary for coming up with wild and wacky fried foods. I mean, if you can think of it, they've probably fried it somewhere. Some of the classics that stand out are things like deep fried butter, which is exactly is over the top as it sounds. There's also fried Coca-Cola,

where they basically turn Coke-flavored batter into little fritters and drizzle them with Harrop. And then you get into the really quirky stuff, like fried bubble gum, which isn't actually gum, but a bubble gum-flavored marshmallow coated and fried, or even fried avocado slices, fried jelly beans, and fried beer, where the beer is kind of encapsulated in a pretzel dough pocket.

So, yeah, state fair is really, go all out. It's all about that fried food creativity. Dang. That fried bubble gum sounds pretty good. See, it's always like, I feel like anything fried is just going to taste good, though. Yeah, maybe. You really just eating the fried. You're just eating the fried with a little flavoring of whatever it was. I did see a really long line, too, for, I mean, there was probably 100 people deep in this line for a pretzel corn dog. Or no, sorry, pickled corn dog. So the corn dog had a pickle in it also.

Hmm. Sounds pretty good. been going to Sonic a bunch. I always go to Sonic, but I've been going to Sonic a bunch because they have the, this is not an ad. Sonic is not even a partner right now. So I want to say that up front, you're not getting hit with an ad. The, the greatest thing about what Sonic has now is their whole pickle line. And I like pickles, but I'm not Mr. Pickle. I haven't missed Pickle since, like, I was 24. So, they have pickle bubbles that I put into the water because I get the Route 44 and I put the nerds in it. and then you put pickle bubbles in it. And you may think to yourself,

that sounds disgusting, you got to try it. They have pickle fries, which are fries, and I had these, fries with pickle like pickle flavoring, A plus. Yeah, I would eat those.

Yeah, I don't know what it is about the pickle flavoring that makes it so much better than if it were just a pickle. Because I like pickles fine, but I'm never going to order pickles. But I'm telling those pickle bubbles, awesome.

Whenever I had a Piccadilly, and this is probably a Texas thing because the Texas is close to Mexico. I had a Piccadilly snow cone, which is like a strawberry snow cone with literal pickles in it and pickle juice. And you think that sounds disgusting.

But the truck was parked near my house and I thought I'm going to have one of those. It was awesome. I had one every day for like 41 days then. What is that? Red snow cone with chopped pickles and pickle juice in it. Oh, yeah?

Is that accurate, Mike? Yeah. Yes, it does sound gross. It is not gross, though. So Sonic's got the whole pickle menu now. it's awesome. It's a little too awesome because there's sonic really close

and any time I go by. Is the pickle bubbles like Boba? Yep. But they're, oh, they have pickle. They have pickle juice in them. Yeah, A plus. A plus. Okay.

Kind of a weird part two. Thanks to all the part tours who listen to this. We appreciate you guys. But we're going to have to end a little early today because we have no Amy. I think she should be in tomorrow. And now we have no Eddie because Eddie left.
