Starting point is 00:03:53 And then I ran into you at the airport once. Yeah. And then I did your show. I mean, that's pretty much our interactions. But, and I don't know what else, so I try to like, I've tried to like call you to get hook up. That's a fucking lie. Stop, stop. Fucking lie. Yeah, yeah, yeah, let me just stop. It's a lie. And I don't know what else so I try to like I've tried to like call you to get hook up Text there's nothing no because I'll tell you why about the text
Starting point is 00:04:20 There's no way that's reliable because you have a weird because you have a weird email thing that you do through text I do yeah, so yeah, that's fantastic. Yeah. Yeah, so I was email No, so I was emailing you through so I was emailing you through your fucking, I was texting you through your email, some weird thing. My point is is that I don't think all the texts went through, I don't think it's really good evidence. But it should be said though that I feel like I know Bobby extremely well because of the universe that we're in. Like the Marvel universe.
Starting point is 00:04:42 Yeah. Yeah, yeah, what am I, Frog Boy? What am I? No, but there's like, but like, you know, via Cho, there's only so many Korean. Yeah. Yeah. You know what? We can't talk about Asian people at large that are doing other things in a, they're not academic or lawyers and shit like that. Right? Okay. Right? Yeah. But just Korean dudes that are doing stuff. I'm a poet. Right? Yeah. But just Korean dudes that are doing stuff. I'm a poet. Right? Yeah. It's the world is relatively small. Exactly. But how do you...
Starting point is 00:05:10 So you're getting evidence through the small ecosystem that we live in, right? But how do you know that they're factual? How do you know me? How do you know that I... You think I'm a deceiver? You think I'm a liar? You think I... You know what I mean? I live in the shadows? Well, those are all true. Yeah, okay, that's true. So what you're saying, I'm gonna tell you what's happening here, okay? I've been to Major Dope, but because I asked your crew over there. Yeah, I know. Oh, they tell you?
Starting point is 00:05:34 Oh, yeah. I go in there a lot. I know. Right? And that I've- What's the batting average for you? Yeah, on dinnertime you were telling us that- No, they're all work- they're all work meetings.

No um I don't think of it as averages because I think about, I think of it as planting seeds. Wow. You know so I've planted many seeds at Major Domo, what a great restaurant.

You don't think we are? Oh yeah. Yeah. So we're very similar. So when I'm not around a lot of Koreans and then all of a sudden I'm in front of a lot of Koreans, my eyes have to get acclimated to it. I understand. I understand. Do you or do you not? Do do. Listen. If you're in a room full of more than say 10 Asian people, let alone 10 Korean people. Mind you, you're in the dark.

Starting point is 00:12:56 About every three to four years, I change my phone number. Yeah, because you're a busy guy. You know, people know you. If I don't happen to like, talk to you on the regular, which happens to me. True, true, true. I don't port those over, or I don't know who they are, right? What does it port?
Starting point is 00:13:19 You move the numbers over. So basically, he knows what I'm talking about. Okay, so what happened is, I had, at the time I had two numbers, and before the new iPhone happened where you could have two numbers on one phone, I would have, long story short, instead of carrying two phones,
Starting point is 00:13:34 I moved one of those numbers to Google Voice number. And I would get text messages on that, and the reason why, it shows up green on his. Right, so that's why I rarely check the Google Voice. So, let me. And that's how I would move, whoever I contact on the Google Voice, then I would move over to the new number.
Starting point is 00:13:51 They're like, hey, I got a new number and that's what would happen. So this is what. That's what happened. I'm gonna finish the thing, it was very kind. You said, I changed this number to Google Voice, you said all on there, right? Hope you had a good time, the team took care of you right best number
Starting point is 00:14:05 And then you gave me the other one right and then that's it Bobby this is much to do about nothing it really it does Much to do about nothing right it has nothing to do with anything.

Okay, let's bury it's buried Think it's been there. It's absolutely buried right so I was I was watching a show called civilization It's it's a PBS show okay, and this is about used to play the game civilization No, but I want to play it very good. Is it very good? Yeah, they have a new one coming out the only thing about that that game is you have to go into war with other places Or no, dude. That's the only time Korea can become number one
Starting point is 00:15:35 Yeah, so you can go I want to be civilized in Korea. Fuck. Yeah, right Yeah, and crush right but here's the thing about that I don't like building a place and then having it be destroyed by a war. And then I have to refix it, right? So I don't wanna do that.

Starting point is 00:18:43 Description link, www.tryfume.com slash belly. You know what, in another universe, you could be. Well, I thank you. You know what, I could be a monk too. We'd be really bad monks. No, I'll be honest with you, I don't think so. Because I think because of the pain and torment, we would like, we need to find real peace.
Starting point is 00:19:08 I think we would really dedicate ourselves to it. I think a lot of monks are like, they're going on in my mind, you know what I mean? I'm sad, I'm confused, right? And then they become monks, and then that's where they find peace. Was Gandhi a monk? No.
Starting point is 00:19:22 Wow. Wow. How old are you? He's 32. Gandhi was not a monk? No, wow. Wow. How old are you? Gandhi was not a monk. Yeah. Yeah, you want to you want to know about gandhi? Yeah, we'd love to know about what do you think? I just know that he's a Yeah, go get express yourself. I just know that he likes to like to uh with my with little babies What what? Okay. I think what? Like, to a... With little babies. What?
Starting point is 00:19:45 What? Okay, I think what you're talking about is... You watch too much TikTok. Yo? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So Gandhi was a lawyer, and at the time, the British colonized India, and he could not get the certain rights that he wanted.
Starting point is 00:20:02 Exactly. And he couldn't step up, so ultimately ultimately he had a conversion to the Hindu faith. And then he saw all the horrors of colonialization in India and because there was nothing he could do to like gain power, he figured out. The way to do it is. Through non-violence. For non-violence, right?
Starting point is 00:20:25 We're MLK learned from Gandhi which he learned from Henry Thoreau. Henry Henry Thoreau Yeah, and it was a such a guy. Yeah, right. Yeah It was a truth and and light or something like that. And basically they broke British the British government They broke the British government through nonviolent protests. Through fasting. Through salt protests.
Starting point is 00:20:50 He did not fast? He did fast, hunger strikes. But what you're trying to talk about is, I was a religion major. He was a molesting kid, that's what you're implying. No, no, no, no, so the one dodgy thing about Gandhi is that in order to test his faith, he would sleep with younger women next to him but not do anything.
Starting point is 00:21:10 Derry, it's a test of fucking time. A test of time. It's all kind of like a spokesman. What do you mean? For? Spokesman for who? The Indians. For abstinence. Oh, abstinence.
Starting point is 00:21:23 For abstinence. For the Indians. Right, abstinence. For abstinence, for abstinence. For the Indians. Right, yeah. Right? Yeah, basically. I feel like we did something here on Tiger Belly that's never been done before. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:21:31 We educated somebody. We educated. With something. Yeah, and what I also would love to encourage you to do is watch the movie. With Ben Kingsley. Ben Kingsley. Sir Ben Kingsley.
Starting point is 00:21:42 What? Put some respect on his name. He might want to do this act as a whole. I did a movie, a scene with him. What? Yeah, a couple scenes with him in a movie. Ben Kingsley. Sir Ben Kingsley. Put some respect on his name. He's one of the actors of all the films. I did a movie, a scene with him. What? Yeah, a couple scenes with him in a movie. Where? Called The Dictator, was a movie with Sacha Baron Cohen. Oh. I didn't see it. Yeah, yeah. I'm in it. So what are you doing? I'm sorry. What are you doing right now, dude? I'm sorry. I've done some things. I know you've done a lot, but. Right, so this guy.
Starting point is 00:22:06 There he is, white guy. I swear to God this happened. We're sitting on a couch, I'm not kidding you. And I didn't know what to say because it's like, I'm nervous. It's Sir Ben Kingsley. So he goes, tell me about Gandhi. What else is he saying?
Starting point is 00:22:21 What's up with that dude? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, I didn't know what to say. What's his deal? Yeah, yeah, what's his deal, dude? What's that with that dude? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I didn't know what to say. What's his deal? What's that all about? And he's like, well, let me tell you something. You know that scene. Oh, well, nice British accent.
Starting point is 00:22:36 I didn't think you could do it. I didn't even do it. No, I didn't hear it. I don't think that was good. No, I can't do it. I don't think that was good. No, I can't do it. Even that scene where I'm being carried by the Indians. I go, yeah. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:22:52 And I go, yeah. And he goes, that wasn't CGI. That was real civilians coming out and helping. I go, wow. A million people showed up. A million people showed up to do one scene where they were carrying his body. I thought was an incredible fact. I only know him from Prince of Persia. Look good old Prince of Persia. Fuck off, man. I just read it. That's what the IMDb said.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Chinese man. That's funny. Let me ask you about that. So I got an offer just now, yesterday, about a show that I really want to do, but then they called me and they go, you have a full blown Asian accent. You're playing just full blown Korean dude with a thick Asian accent. It's a show that I really want to do, but I don't want to do accents anymore. What do you think I should do, David? You're playing this full blown Korean dude with a thick Asian accent. It's a show that I really want to do but I don't want to do accents anymore.
Starting point is 00:23:48 What do you think I should do David? Drama or comedy? It's a comedy. How much they pay you? Not much. It's a small show. But it's a good show. Is it highly watched? Well I'll just tell you what it is.
Starting point is 00:24:03 We'll bleep it out. We'll bleep it out. Oh yeah yeah because he's a friend so he called me directly. Big show yeah. Then I think you should do it because it's like part of the... Oh fuck I'll do it! I think it's part of the it's part of the fraternity. Yeah you're right. You know what I mean? Yeah. If you were doing a show for like you know big white dudes from Pennsylvania. Yeah but... You know hey speak speak dudes from Pennsylvania. Yeah, but he... You know, hey, speak in Philly accent.
Starting point is 00:24:27 He'd do it. Right. Right, but here's my problem with that, though. Okay, there's all these other parts in the show where they don't think I should play because they're not technically Asian, right? Whereas, you know, some movies like, you know, the couple of movies I've just done, right,
Starting point is 00:24:43 they're like, oh, we don't care. It's just you're just a guy. You know what I mean? And I like playing just guys. Bobby, no one will ever look at us as just guys. We're still to this day. Fuck yeah, we're always the Asian guy. Always.
Starting point is 00:24:59 But what did I tell you what happened the other day? You got your butt eight. You like gnomes? No, I don't remember. Can we go back to Civilization? Sure. Okay. So, um.
Starting point is 00:25:10 There must be a lot of editing on this. No, it's cute. This is a great, this is all loud. We don't have to edit any of this. So, I'm killing it. Civilization. Yeah, yeah. What comedy podcasts have you done?
Starting point is 00:25:23 I did Your Boy Santino's like a month ago you did yeah, yeah, and he was that more free-flowing no yeah, this is fun This is fun. Okay good Santino. This is way funner than you This is more clinical. Let me just connect to go back to so I've been watching the show and so you know back in the day We were no meds Okay, there was like how how far back before there was civilization. Yeah, we were all the day we were nomads, okay? There was no. But how far back? Before there was civilization. Yeah, we were all nomads. We were all nomads.
Starting point is 00:25:48 Not me specifically, I wasn't around. But our ancestors. Yeah, all right, yeah. Roaming around, right? And there was no fixed place that we lived, okay? But then once we established grains and growing and farming. In the Fertile Crescent?
Starting point is 00:26:02 Yes. Right? Yeah, dude. That's important in civilization. You wanna get that. That's exactly it. Yeah, the Fertile Crescent? Yes. Right? Yeah, dude. That's important in civilization. You wanna get that. That's exactly, yeah, the Fertile Crescent, right? And then we started hurting, right? We stayed stagnant in one place
Starting point is 00:26:12 and developed civilizations and war drives civilization, but when I'm asking you, when did culinary happen? Because in the beginning, the first probably couple thousand years of civilization, it was probably just getting grains and food and this and that, but now we're at a point where it's like, you know, you want taste and flavor and you know what I mean, the experience.
Starting point is 00:26:32 When do you think that occurred? Did the French do it? When did you process this question? What do you mean? Yeah, because it's a highly developed, nuanced question that I have to say I wasn't expecting from a Bobbie D. I wasn't expecting that. Dude, I'm almost like you blacked out.
Starting point is 00:26:51 No, no, no, dude, dude, no, no, dude, this is so offensive. I can't even believe I'm offended. Think about the previous thing you said. It's like he read that book Sapiens or something. After he got his ass tossed. No, I was, did you just hear what I just said? Yes. I've been watching this PBS show called Civilians.
Starting point is 00:27:08 The first chapter was on war. Domestication of war, okay. The second one was about religion, right? But in the midst, you know, it said all this information. I'm watching it and I went, oh, interesting. When did culinary things happen? You know what I mean? So that's why, and then I thought,
Starting point is 00:27:24 well, David's gonna do the podcast, this would be a nice question to ask him. Hey, well done. Exactly. So anyway, I'm asking you. I think that it probably, listen, I think, what's wrong?
Starting point is 00:27:40 Nothing. I think that deliciousness, what we find to be delicious, is a universal, it's like a meme that wants to survive. Yes. Just like a good idea wants to survive. Yes. Just like DNA wants to survive.
Starting point is 00:27:55 Right. I think that something that tastes good actually wants to survive in any form necessary. I see. So there are things that are physiologically inherent in all of us that we want salt, we want sweet, all of these things. Mm. So regardless you're gonna know honey for the first time. Like oh that's fucking good. You know what I mean? Honey. Honey. Imagine, imagine tasting honey for the
Starting point is 00:28:20 first time. Caveman did that. Yeah, imagine. Noot whoot, no no, I know, but whoot whoot whoot. Let me reenact it. Whoot whoot whoot whoot, look at me. Whoot whoot. Wow. Ooh. Now I got it, wow. I just went back in time.
Starting point is 00:28:36 Now I got it, now I got it. All right. Where are we? He just cast a spell, I don't know what's going on. You guys get that? But imagine, like, everything that we take for granted, somebody did it first, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:49 And that was probably delicious. And they're like, oh, that's delicious. And then you're going to tell somebody else, oh, you got to. Well, let me ask you even more of a specific question. Like, cheese. Yeah. How the fuck do you develop? I think it's all the time.
Starting point is 00:29:01 You get milk, right? And then how did you go? How did some guy go, I think we could make this into cheese. I tell you, I think about, I thought about this a lot. Okay. So, so after we domesticated grain,
Starting point is 00:29:15 after we sort of domesticated cattle or whatever, any, anybody that produces milk, right? So imagine like all of a sudden me and you, let's just say, what tribe are we two million years ago, a million So imagine, like, all of a sudden, me and you, let's just say, we're part of, what tribe are we, two million years ago, a million years ago, whatever it is. The Dong tribe. Dong tribe, dong.
Starting point is 00:29:31 You guys know what that means, right? Dong. What does dong mean in Korean? Dong. No, it means poo. Oh, poo. We're the poo tribe. We're the poo tribe.
Starting point is 00:29:39 Respect. Yeah, yeah. So we're the dong tribe, and we're the younger, we're still like, woo-loo, woo-loo, woo-loo. But we're young, you know what I mean? Yeah, so we're the we're the don't drive and we're the young we're still like we're still like We're like the younger people in the tribe and they're like, oh hey Bobby and Dave go milk those fucking cows and then meet us over at What's another tribes name? Got you got you penis penis. Yeah, the go to the go to try right?
Starting point is 00:30:05 But we're trying to get into the bogey drive Gochu. You know what Gochu is? Penis. Penis. You said the Gochu Tribe, right? At sundown. But we're trying to get into the boju tribe, which is just pussy. You know, so like, they're like, hey, we want to go- We'll get there. At sundown, go meet us at the Gochu Tribe. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:30:18 But why are we going there? Because they're going to have like a feast for us. Yeah, their dicks are all out of there. Yeah, yeah, fine. We're like fine. and we putz around, we putz around, and we start fucking around, and we figure out like, there's all the shit we can do. And then, no, no, no, no, no,
Starting point is 00:30:34 we do everything but milk the cows, because that's what we would do. We'd fuck around for hours. Oh, we'd do some sexualities with each other in the forest? Hey. Maybe. Different times. Different times, maybe, forest? Hey! Different times. So anyway, yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:48 No, we're like observing the Boju tribe. We'd be doing everything but working, right? And then we're like, oh shit, the sun's going down. And Bobby, we need to go fucking milk these fucking cows. Oh my god! Holy shit! What do we do? We gotta milk these fucking cows! It's too late! I know! What were they using to hold milk?
Starting point is 00:31:05 Buckets. No. Mouth. No. Okay, wait, we hold it. Like a cloth? Yeah, but maybe it was a stomach. Maybe it was an animal casing, right?
Starting point is 00:31:15 No, so that, no, this is new information. They would cut out the animal casing of another cow and then you put the milk. That's how we got sausage. Sausage. Oh, I see. So all parts of the animal were used, right and then you put them. That's how we got sausage. Sausage. Oh, I see. All parts of the animal were used, right? Okay. So a stomach.
Starting point is 00:31:29 Yeah. Probably was used. Think about all the animals that were fucking killed and might have taken a long time for them to get to the stomach. Right. But it probably happened. Okay. And then two knuckleheads that were milking this fucking cow. Right. Now we have a stomach casing or another casing from the animal of the cow. I see the vagina, but that's fine
Starting point is 00:31:49 Okay, okay. Anyway, we make we make we make like a Bag and we store the fucking milk in there and we tie it up with some string Yeah, and we hurry up so we don't get in trouble. We go to the culture tribe And we hurry up so we don't get in trouble. We go to the Kochi tribe. Right. Yeah, we're, hurry up. It's warm and it's hot. And by the time we get there.
Starting point is 00:32:09 Yeah, yeah. They're like, hey, you guys got the meat? We got the milk. And then we pour out the milk and it's not milk anymore. What is it? It's cheese. Ah. That's a long walk.
Starting point is 00:32:21 Yeah. It must've been a long walk. That's a nine day walk. we know this to be true because cheese is made with stomach enzymes original so that was casins that would just old milk correct Wow you learn everything new yeah but where's the flavor just drop a knowledge bombs here on Digger Belly wait wait let's this here. What the flavor of the milk, like the cheese, like what does the cheese flavor come in? You pay this guy?
Starting point is 00:32:49 No, but answer him. Where the cheese flavor, it is inherent in itself. Yeah. Oh, sorry, I'm thinking about cheddar cheese, my bad. But where does cheddar cheese flavor come from? Yeah, I'm asking. He's gonna throw it back. So there's this thing called microbes that
Starting point is 00:33:06 you can't see in the world and that provides flavor to everything that you can't see. Right. So that's why I say wine tastes different in one country versus another country climates and all that differences make cheddar cheddar and different kinds of milk so that's cow milk. Yeah different kind of milk. So that's cow milk. Different kind of milk. You know everything. He knows everything. So that's how cheese is made. Yes. Wow. So let me just get my little brain out of you, right?
Starting point is 00:33:36 So you're talking about the little intestine lining, right? We put meat in there, made sausage. And condoms. Maybe that's And condoms. Maybe that's how condoms, I don't know. It's possible. Wow, so that's how cheese is made. What's the number one restaurant Michelin star? There's a lot of them.
Starting point is 00:33:54 But the top 10, are most of them in France? No, they're in Japan. Oh. A lot of wakase. Fuck that, we're Korean. But like the- Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's close, it's close. We're adjacent to them. Yeah, yeah, it's close. Really? Yeah, dude. But like, Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's close, it's close. We're adjacent to that.
Starting point is 00:34:05 Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's close. Really? I think so. I mean, some of the best restaurants certainly are in France, but you can't just, it's like this, put it this way, even though this is gonna be a ridiculous comparison.
Starting point is 00:34:16 Can you say the best soccer slash football is in France? No. No. There's great players all over the world. There's great players. You're right, but I would think that the Premier League is the most competitive and that's in the UK. Yes, right? Okay, right? All right. So, okay Okay, okay. All right. Does that make sense in a weird way? It doesn't but because it's not all in France. That's what I'm trying to say. What does that say?
Starting point is 00:34:39 France is the most Michelin starred restaurants in the world. Well, that's what I was saying. Yeah It's fucking home-favored From France. Oh, I see. Yeah, it's like saying when when like the NFL were the world champions who else plays fucking American football, right? And I feel like it's in the last 20 years I think other countries have caught up as a yeah like in fucking Mexico City of Puyol. Mexico City's got the best food. Pujol. Pujol. Yeah yeah. Great restaurant. Damien. I heard you draw Damien a few times. It's a good date spot. Yeah I like Damien a lot. Very good. Ceviche is very good. And yeah so Damien so um what I'm asking you is what kind of when did you develop your style? Are these like regular, I mean, this is good.
Starting point is 00:35:31 What I never developed my style, I developed my style probably in some ways how you developed your comedy. By not fitting in, not doing it right, not, you know, not following, trying to be mainstream, but not fitting in, you know. We never fit in. No, and like not being good enough,
Starting point is 00:35:51 not being seen from how other people would see you, because you literally see as the Asian guy, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I think for me, how I found my style was actually going to Asia, living in Asia, living in Japan, working in Japan, traveling, cooking, and then realizing like, wait, like, this shit is just as valid as the French shit.
Starting point is 00:36:09 Yeah. I mean, when we ate, me and Andrew ate at our show, we talked about it for a very long time and it was- The show was Dinner Time Live. You gotta plug my shit. I do it at the end. I don't do Midway, Dinner Time Live with David Chang on Netflix. We're never gonna have that. It was an incredible experience because there it is. I was a little aggressive. You two guys are great.
Starting point is 00:36:36 We're great together. We do. But anyway, it was because our episode is basically leftovers. And also one of the least watched episodes we've ever had. But anyway, it was a, because our episode is basically leftovers. And also one of the least watched episodes we've ever had. No, I'm joking, I'm joking. No, are you being real? No, I'm joking.
Starting point is 00:36:52 Is it mid or no? I have no idea. They won't tell us. That's a really fun joke. So self-conscious. That was a fun joke because it hurt me in my heart. I knew it would. Because I would have believed you.
Starting point is 00:37:03 You guys appreciated it, right? Yeah, yeah, it was really good. How long ago was this? Like a year ago? Like a month and a half ago. A month and a half ago. Okay, turn it off. I don't want me screaming.
Starting point is 00:37:12 I'm screaming, okay. So anyway, it was an incredible experience, but because you used leftovers from your previous shows and made us stop, right? And I have to say, the greatest thing I've eaten, probably the greatest dessert I've ever eaten in my whole life was that cake. Caviar.
Starting point is 00:37:33 He made a creme fraiche cheesecake with caviar on it, and it was absolutely stunning. It was fucking delicious. Because I just started getting into caviar maybe three or four years ago. And I love the potato chip caviar with the creme fraiche. That's my favorite combination. The salty, you know what I mean, the creamy.
Starting point is 00:37:57 I love that you became a caviar guy. You're welcome, thank you. Thank you so much, I appreciate it. Well, you know, I've upped my game. Yeah, you really you. I appreciate it. Thank you so much. I appreciate it. Well, you know, I've um, I've upped my game. You really have. As I say. And so, you know, and I've also been partaking in the best restaurants I can go to. I've learned it. Yeah, yeah. And so, I have to say that me and Andrew decided that was probably one of the best culinary experiences we've ever had. I'm glad. I really was happy you guys came in. It was great.
Starting point is 00:38:24 And I felt that the meal that I really was happy you guys came in. And I felt that the meal that I cooked for you guys was very good, so I was very, very happy. Yeah. You've had some interesting people on your show. Big people. Like yourself. Well, we were later in the thing. Who have you had?
Starting point is 00:38:41 You had Seth Rogen? Love him. What a great guy. There's Seth. Who else? Oh that fucking guy. You do with Ike and Seth? Ike and Seth. Yeah. God, him and I used to be so close. Me and Ike. Aren't you still close? Yeah, but we used to hang out every day for years. I'm so happy for him. Anyway, it was a great experience and like something that you would make on that show is it something you put on the menu of your restaurants? No, I mean we'll see what happens one day.
Starting point is 00:39:10 Will you ever make a strictly ramen shop? No. I mean like I don't cook in restaurants that much these days. Oh. So. Why? Because I've done it. So who cooks there now? He has his chefs. Oh you have your chefs? You tell them what to do? So why yeah, because I've done it So who cooks there now?
Starting point is 00:39:31 He has his chefs. Oh you have your chefs. Yeah, you tell him what to do. No, I am literally not in the day today anymore Oh, so you could go to you. So the only way to eat my food is literally at dinner time live You want very few people. It's like that's a reservation again. What incredible one. Yeah, you feel better about yourself. I feel so good What incredible, what incredible. Now you feel better about yourself? I feel so good. I feel good about it. Yeah. So let me ask you this. You can go to one of your restaurants
Starting point is 00:39:51 and you could see the menu and go, I don't know what any of this is. No, I know what's going on, but I'm not in the, the difference was I used to know everything. And I used to be on the road all the time visiting all the restaurants and not so much anymore. I'll tell what I tell you what upset me at Major Domo if I may Well, we all we all know who you are Because of your you're the Yelper
Starting point is 00:40:17 Your little cream girl That is me yeah, yeah, yeah and And I want you to explain this to me, if you may. Sure. You know what I mean? So you have your, the bread, what's the bread called? Bing. Bing.
Starting point is 00:40:36 But it's basically bong, right? Yeah, it's bing. Yeah, delicious bread. Bong is Korean for bread. Bing is Chinese for bread. Yeah. And so I get bing every time when I'm at your place and I get probably two or three You know I mean, but then you change it up and I'll tell you what I was upset about
Starting point is 00:40:53 There was one thing you had was honey honey butter and cave butter Cave H butter and then the cave butter was no longer because that that Tell me about the cave the cave room in New York is no longer open. What happened to the cave? So they had an aging cave. So when you age cheese in a cave, all of those flavors, and those flavors come from the microbes, get stuck in the air, right? Wow.
Starting point is 00:41:21 And they impart a lot of that funky flavor into the butter that was also aging. Incredible. In the cheese cave. Incredible. And that cheese shop that was making our aged butter is no longer in existence. So they just ran out? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:40 Okay, okay. Yeah, they're not open. All right. Yeah. That's all that happened. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It just made me sad. One day it was no longer. I'm sorry.

No, no, no, no, no, no. What I said was and people got upset because things get pulled, you know, people get pulled quoted all the time, right? Me all the time! All the time. What I said was Koreatown, so the Korean food in Seoul is.
Starting point is 00:47:25 Slow down. You're not on fire. First, number one. Okay. First off, the food in Korea is the best Korean food. No question about it because it's very progressive now. You know what I mean is, is, like when our parents came to this country. Yuck.
Starting point is 00:47:40 Right? Yeah. The recipes and all the knowledge they had when they were trying to make the same foods that they left. Yeah. It was stuck in it. We were eating time capsule food. Ah, you know what I mean? The 40s. Right. Yeah. Yeah. It's just like this is what they understood. This is where. So back then when my parents, when our parents came to America,
Starting point is 00:47:59 yeah, did they have Jigae? Yeah, they had it. But the flavors were like, and like the modernism of it all was stuck in the 60s and 50s. Because there was just no communication of what was happening. So it's almost like you're stuck in a different dialect. Whoa. So, but what was happening in Korea
Starting point is 00:48:18 was constant progression and evolution. So you see a lot more wacky shit, I think. In Korea. And you also see that in LA, because there's been a lot more wacky shit, I think. In Korea. And you also see that in LA, because there's been a lot of innovation. So if I went to Korea and I said to you, where's the best traditional Korean food that's the best? Do you know the place?
Starting point is 00:48:34 I have to talk to somebody that knows. Oh, you don't know? I don't know. Do you know any restaurant that you would recommend? Yeah, I mean, I know the people that know it. Oh, go, go, go. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like you base the story on something you're
Starting point is 00:48:46 going to. That's true that's true. But like LA Korea Town is amazing and I've been coming here for a long time. I think it is as good and it's not just Korean food in K-Town. Yeah. Right? Everything's good in K-Town. K-Town is like got everything. Yeah. So fucking good. What people got upset is I said, I think I enjoy the food in not a Fuck what's the what guard? What's the not Gardena? What's the town where a little Vietnam is? little Saigon in The south not River side. No see that right? Yeah, no C area that there's honorary Park. No, no South not Riverside no see that right you know OCR that Monterey Park no no no no what do you Fullerton Fullerton Fullerton's got fucking amazing cream okay I've never heard that super good okay and that's when people got mad they got mad yeah yeah what I don't blame them why would you give a shit if they got

Whoa, right? So if you do you you have, like, cause I have my spots in K-Town. Do you have your spots?

Starting point is 00:51:24 Because he would leave his warehouse like four in the morning, he wants something, he was the only place to open that was, in K-Town, never fucking busy. Right. And then he'd take me there and I'd be like, this place is really fucking good. Because when we used to go, there was no one there,

Yeah, you know have a restaurant like where people go to like there's not like a specific food like New York It's like the pretzel or pizza or dirty water hot dog. Well, it's a dirty water hot dog You know what that no, I don't know what a dirty water hot dog is It I guess hearts. Okay, and then they'd have the hot dogs in water. Oh, that's right. That's a Dirty Water Hot Dog. Yeah, yeah. Those are so good. So good. Yeah, yeah. And then you said pretzels is there? Pretzels. Wait, wait, that's a New York thing? Yeah. Wait, pretzels were created in New York. No, not created, but it's like,
Starting point is 00:54:59 it's their representative. Yeah, yeah. Black and white cookies. Cheesecake. Oh, those are good. Cassis pastrami. Yep, pastrami, yes. I love it. Yeah, bagels. New York's got too many. Yeah, New York's, yeah. But now, you don't, how,
Starting point is 00:55:15 cause I've always known you as a New York guy, and now you're an LA guy. Yeah. How's it feel? Cause we talked about outside, you feel light and... You feel free? I'm happy. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:55:32 I'm good. I mean, come on, just breathe. We're good, we're good. I'm enjoying it. Yeah, I get to see somebody like you. Yeah. This could have happened if I was living in New York. What do you mean? enjoying I'm enjoying it yeah I get to see somebody like you yeah this is gonna happen if I was living in New York what do you mean you know I have to do this with my video if I was a this is a bonus that I'm I can just like drive across
Starting point is 00:55:55 town and that's true we don't do no I like it's been a lot of it's it's a big difference for me and you know I came out here mostly for work because I'm doing more media stuff, but I think in general, having two kids, I just thought it'd be better to, not that LA's better, but we live in Pasadena, so it's not full of the Hollywood shit. So it's just a little bit different.
Starting point is 00:56:17 And I feel like if I was living in New York, I'd be living in Connecticut and New Jersey and having kids. So that's how I think. I feel like we live in the suburbs. York, I'd be living in Connecticut and New Jersey. That's how I think. I feel like we live in the suburbs. Yeah. Although, last week, do you guys know I went to Ohio? Do you know that?
Starting point is 00:56:33 You saw it? Here comes the name drop. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Gotcha. I connected it now. I connected it. Thanks for that, Dave. Now I know, Dave.
Starting point is 00:56:43 Now I know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's cool. I will fucking name drop it. I wasn't name dropping. I wasn't going to see nothing. Let's see how you tell us now without a name. So I went to Ohio.
Starting point is 00:56:51 I flew there. What were you doing there? How'd you fly there? I did a show. Me and Andrew did a show. How'd you fly there? We flew in a private plane. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:59 So there we go. All right, I'll name drop. Yeah. All right. So Chappelle, Dave, you're going to name drop. I'm going to name drop. I'm going to name drop. I'm going to name drop. I'm going to private plane. Yeah. So there we go. All right, I'll name drop. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:09 So Dave Chappelle flew me and Andrew over to Yellow Springs, Ohio, right next to Springfield where they eat the fucking dogs and cats, the Haitians. And it was the day before the debate, after the debate. It was weird because Dave picks us up in Springfield at their little, and that's all we could talk about, is what Trump said, right? It was hilarious.
Starting point is 00:57:37 And, but when I was in that town, I thought to myself, because in your mind, you think, why would Donnell Rawlings and Dave Chappelle live in Yellow Springs, Ohio, right? But when you go there, you go, oh, I completely get it. It's green, right? It's got a small town feel to it, but the shops are eclectic, you know what I mean? Like, you know.
Starting point is 00:58:05 I don't know what you mean. Well, the shops have like... Is it like Woodstock? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like hippies? No, no, no. It's like, you know, like a rainbow flag. A rainbow flag. Like a rainbow flag, and they have like little like witchcrafty kind of like figurines.
Starting point is 00:58:19 Pilate studio? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Little things like that. You know what I mean? Well, you walk by and go, oh, somebody made that with their little fingers or whatever, you know what I mean? And so it's like, it's charming. It's charming. No restaurants really ever, they have like kind of divey, barry kind of things. But then you go and he opened his own comedy club in Yellow Springs.
Starting point is 00:58:40 And get this, the comedy club's open when he wants to do it. Imagine a comedy club like that. It's amazing. It's closed tonight because I don't want to do it. You know what I mean? But I'll do it Thursday, you know what I mean? Like it's that thing. But what I was thinking is that a town like that,
Starting point is 00:58:58 there's a photo, a town like, yeah. And yeah, that was incredible. But a town like that doesn't have a high end restaurant. You know what I mean? And I'm wondering, do you see in the future that little towns will have, you know what I mean, every town will have a nice place or not? Well, there was a, not every town,
Starting point is 00:59:18 but I think it's gonna be more common. I think it started, there was a restaurant like two hours south of Washington DC and a restaurant That's I can't even name the town But Patrick O'Connell was the chef and he opened up in this little podunk town a three mission star restaurant called it in a little Washington Well, yeah, so it can happen. Yeah. Yeah, right. Have you eaten there? I haven't uh, yeah, and so um But the economy has to be good no for a time or because I saw a chef table Great show and there's one chef. I forgot where it was but it was in Denmark somewhere. It's a way
Starting point is 00:59:57 It's way into the forest. It's like a six-hour. No. It's not in Denmark. Okay in Sweden. Okay. I'm sorry Correct, but I don't remember yeah yeah yeah people look the same yeah yeah y'all look like Roy Choi to me yeah so yeah so it's in Sweden it's a six hour drive right or something it's it's an eight hour train ride from Stockholm it's in the northern part like the northern tip of Sweden, in a national park. It's owned by one of the richest people in Sweden on this huge estate. I've been there. Magnus is one of my close friends and he had a restaurant called Faviken where everything was produced and grown on the land. Yeah, they use local flavors and vegetables and mushrooms and stuff, right? And you eat and how much like, it's expensive, right?
Starting point is 01:00:45 Yeah, but it's not great, it's not like, probably like 300 bucks. It's expensive, but it's not like- Do we have to stay there, too? Yeah, it's nice. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So imagine, I mean, that town's not like a huge city, right? There's nothing there.
Starting point is 01:00:57 There's nothing there. There's nothing there. So it can happen, is what you're saying. Yeah, but you're creating destination restaurants, and that's for- That's what I'm saying, so why can't we do that in America? Why can't Springfield, Ohio?
Starting point is 01:01:07 As I said, I just said it is going to happen, just not gonna happen in every town. And it'll probably happen with Springfield, Ohio, because Dave's there. I know that a couple of my friends have cooked for him there. So it's like, yeah, I'm sure it's gonna happen. Yeah, because Donnell was like, so that's it.
Starting point is 01:01:23 I've always wanted- You usually need a super rich guy to be like, yeah, I'm gonna bankroll this. All right. But I wanna go there. It's closed. What? Magnus Nilsson left a few years ago,
Starting point is 01:01:33 and he's opening a new restaurant. He's opening a new restaurant in the southern pit. So Magnus moved to an apple orchard, and he's opening a new restaurant in the southern part of Sweden. We gotta go now! It's gonna open up soon. And it's not gonna be like a fine dining destination.
Starting point is 01:01:52 It's gonna be like a all-you-can-eat, not all-you-can-eat, like an all-day cafe type of thing. Like a diner, like a Swedish diner. Whoa, so it's not something that you would wanna maybe travel to? I will. Okay. Have you eaten here?
Starting point is 01:02:05 Here's another great question. Where? Do you ever see the hero dreams of sushi? Giro, yes. What'd I say? Giro. Giro. I didn't use a J.
Starting point is 01:02:18 Giro dreams of sushi? I have been there. You've been in the subway? Yeah. Restaurant, with him serving? Yeah, yeah. You know him? I don't know him. Did he know you? No. Okay. He doesn't give a fuck about me. Were you nervous? No. Okay. Was it, did you ever see this documentary? No. Okay you have to- It's one of the quickest meals I've ever had. Quickest? Because they only, they don't do any
Starting point is 01:02:41 otsumami, they don't do anything that's like the cooked or other dishes, you just get sushi. On average, like the meal is like, like 22 minutes. Wow. It's expensive. I don't remember. I didn't pay. I heard it is. I didn't pay. But sushi in Japan is not like overly expensive, even the high end places. It is. I'm not trying to say it's not but it's not like
Starting point is 01:03:11 what you think it might be. Anyone listening right now and then there's a ton of you but you gotta watch Iroh dreams of sushi. Jiroh, Jiroh. Jiroh. Don't forget the J. Sorry. It's not heiming. Jiroh dreams of sushi. Okay. But David Gelb, who actually made a chef's table. Yeah. Yeah. So this tiny sushi bar, right? This guy Jiro, got it right that time, right? This guy right here, he's been running it since what, the 60s or 70s, I don't know. Yeah. Right?
Starting point is 01:03:36 If you go there now, you'll probably see his son. Yeah, his son, yeah. That's his son right there. And he has another restaurant in Roppongi, but it's not as good. And when you watch this documentary, Jules especially, because I know you like sushi, right? It'll blow your mind. It'll make you want to have sushi right then and there.
Starting point is 01:03:50 That's how good it looks. But was it... That guy has a restaurant now that we just saw in New York, Nakazawa. Really? Wow. So that's him. So when you saw him and you ate it, was it... Is it like one of the better sushi you had or was it just like, uh? But here's the deal. I love it. So like if I asked you, so I learned this,
Starting point is 01:04:13 and who's the best comedian of all time? You know, you're like, what's the best comedy show you've ever done? Oh, you're right. Dude, okay, I love the way you're framing it, and you've been doing it often, and it's, thank you. Thank you so much. She's trying to give you contact.
Starting point is 01:04:30 Yeah, so you're giving me contact. So, you're saying, it depends on what my mood is, or my preferences. Correct. Right, so. But there's a whole, there could be like, a hundred comedians you could probably choose from. Right, but it's like, I gotta see Chappelle or Chris Rock.
Starting point is 01:04:45 Right, and in Tokyo there's probably like five to 10 that could any given night be the best. Wow. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Saito's probably the most, Sushi Saito, and all these restaurants, you're not getting in because they're invitation only because they don't want dumb Americans coming in anymore. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:02 They're like, fuck you guys. We're just too loud and obnoxious. Can you get into sushi shop Saito? I have friends. I can probably get in. You can get in right? If you can get in. But I... if... he said maybe. Shut the fuck up. He said maybe. No he didn't. He was gonna say it straight. No I know people. Okay. Let me try to get... let me see if I can do it, okay? If you can get in, that means that I can get in. Yes. So this is the difference though.
Starting point is 01:05:31 Yeah. It's not like, hey, in two weeks, this is a planning, we'd have to plan this like a year out or like nine months out. Right. Way out, and then a lot of times. He could die, Saito could die. No, no, no, no, but but there are restaurants in Japan that no one's calling you Like hey remind you of a reservation like you make the date. You remember February 22
Starting point is 01:05:57 Show up to be here at 3 p.m You don't get that and it's very that it And it's very, it's like dining culture there is very different and very respectful. Right. And if I show up and I wear like a Ahi Tona hat, like, you know, like a little, I would like look like sushi maybe. You could look like sushi.
Starting point is 01:06:16 Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? And I would probably do an accent. I'd do the bow. That'd be cool. What are you pitching? What? I'm just trying to get it. So a lot of these top places now are invitation only because and like what do you mean? Dear Leonardo DiCaprio. No no no. It doesn't matter if you're rich or famous. You have to be a good diner. It's not about being rich or famous. But who gets invited? Is what I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:06:45 You actually have to be seen as a good diner. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Literally earn the right to eat there. Kamala Harris. Yeah. We know that kind of thing. Something like a Korean accent. Something like my dad did.
Starting point is 01:06:57 So what I'm saying is you have to get invited. Yeah. Okay. You got to know people. Oh, you have to know people. That's fucking not a really cool way of doing it as a restaurant now. Well it keeps out the riff raff. It keeps out the influencers. I can't have you in and out.
Starting point is 01:07:16 But it's sort of the same shit that made it in and out popular. There's only one menu but there's all the secret shit. Right? People want what we can't have. That's true in human psychology. It's true, especially with rich people. You tell a rich person you can't have this, I gotta fucking have it. Yeah, that is weird with human psychology because it's like, even with me now, I mean, I don't want to cut this out, I don't want to say it. I'll just say it. Um. What a journey. What a journey to my mind.
Starting point is 01:07:49 What was I saying? I forgot what I was saying. Oh, no, I know what I was going to say. What I was going to say is that, you know, the girls that I'm dating, right, they could be the one for me. But because there's always like women that don't want to date me, that my eyes are always at some, like in some direction that I can't, that I'm not there. You know, how do I explain it? No, you're, I didn't make any sense and you
Starting point is 01:08:14 went, um. You're trying to. You have no idea what I was saying, right George? But he went, um. No, no, no, I get it. I get it. Sushi Sata. Yeah. You have. That's it. You have girls that. You have girls that you can. Yeah, maybe have a life with. Settle down with. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:32 But that doesn't interest you as much as the girls that won't give you the time of day. You want the chase. Yeah, but once the chase is over, right, it's the same thing. It's like a. It's a. It's never ending cycle.
Starting point is 01:08:43 It's like drug addiction. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. And so what I'm saying is that, it's like drug addiction almost. Yeah, yeah. It's what I'm saying is that maybe that's why you got to surrender to it and just be like, it is what it is. Like, yeah. Right, so if I just go to Austin Abell, I don't need to go to Giro. Well.
Starting point is 01:08:59 Hi, Ro. What? We're getting some gyros. Yeah. Have you been to Austin Able? That's uh, no I haven't yet. I love it. I love good things. It's so good. Um there's great sushi in America. Thank you. There's great sushi in LA. There's great, I went to one recently, Udatsu that just opened up in LA in Hollywood. Very good. Uh-huh. There's great sushi in New York. Getting better. New York probably has better sushi than LA. People are getting pissed off.
Starting point is 01:09:26 No, that's good. You can say that, that's your opinion. Well, it's not opinion if it's fucking right. Interesting. I like that. Yeah. Yeah. No, but.
Starting point is 01:09:37 Like when people say, well, you know, Godfather's a great, if someone says Godfather's a great movie, well, again, that's your opinion. No, it's a great movie. It's hands down a great movie. Just because your little cerebral's your opinion. No, it's a great movie. It's hands down a great movie. Just because your little cerebral mind can't fucking deal with it or fucking even understand it. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:09:50 Like, have you guys seen it? You'll never see it because your little cerebral mind can't even forget your mind about it. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, but the- Have you seen it? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:00 Yeah, yeah, yeah. What are you guys doing with your lives? I know. Why haven't you seen Godfather? I just like to watch anime I know but I'm gonna say something do you like Godfather? I? Know that's it. Yes. Why do you fucking ask me? Okay, so so I'm actually really worried about the younger generation
Starting point is 01:10:19 I'm literally 100% Dealing with for the last three years. What you fucking talking about? It's really fucking scary. They don't know anything. They don't know Bob Dylan. They don't know nothing. You don't know who Bob Dylan is? Yeah, we do. Right? No, I don't. Yeah, we do. Right? Yeah, yeah. Ask them ourselves. They don't know. Alright, let me, how about this? Let's go. What the fuck's going on? I'm always working, that's why, so I don't have to... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, um...
Starting point is 01:10:41 I feel like you're asking the wrong people too because I know like my friends that are like film Adics and they love films they probably know most of the stuff, you know, too Okay. No, it's called being a fucking human being on this planet. Exactly. Exactly. I finally somebody on my side Come on, man. You won Beatles album An album something with something with Ali Ali Here comes the sun. That's a song, but an album. Something with Boulevard. Something with Ali. Ali.
Starting point is 01:11:09 And he said Boulevard. Yeah, and you said Boulevard. Ali Boulevard. What a great album. I'm really sad that we changed the conversation. Come on, guys. Abbey Road. Abbey Road.
Starting point is 01:11:21 Yeah, yeah. So Boulevard almost, Ali, he almost had it. You said Road. Right? Road, yeah. No, you said Boulevard. Boulevard almost, Alley, you almost had it. You said Road. Right? Road, yeah. No, you said Boulevard. Boulevard. But it's really Road, and you said Alley. Road is a legitimate road in London. Where the studio is at.
Starting point is 01:11:36 Maybe Alley Boulevard is a better album. I like that one. Anyway, let's go. It's a black album. I bet you they don't even know which black album. There's two black albums, they don't even know. Yeah they don't know. Which are the two black albums that happened the past 30 years? I don't even know if I know that, dude. You do? I know the first one. Metallica? Yeah. Yeah one? And? They think Jay-Z's old grandpa. Jay-Z's black album. What's wrong with you? Yeah, what's wrong with you? Yeah, yeah. They don't know much, but maybe because it's social media, they're just on to other things.
Starting point is 01:12:08 You know all kinds of crazy shit that I have no idea. Ask them something. Yeah, you ask them. Ask us something and then see if we can answer. I feel like we know how to use iPhones better than you guys. You guys have... Just a diss? No, I'm just saying.
Starting point is 01:12:24 We know how to... Yeah, yeah, yeah. You got one. You got one. If you have a bunch of rowies, we have the key words to each different rowie. Okay. We're talking about pop culture-y things. Oh, pop culture.

Starting point is 01:12:58 No, no, no! Stop, stop! You can't compare Brooke Schofield to Bob fucking Dillon! It just does influence her. But she also has a podcast that's very popular with Tana Mongeau. Did she change western culture as we know it? No! But also she got cancelled so that's why she's trending too.
Starting point is 01:13:21 Okay. Alright so give me one. Flappy Bird. I think Hybe is the only one that knows. Flappy Bird. Is that one word? Let's spell it. Flappy Bird.
