I'll do an impression of Lewis again. Again, yeah. Okay, ready? Yeah. Hello and welcome to the Triforce podcast. My name is Lewis Brindley and I am joined by Sips. Sips, how are you? Good. Oh, shit, was I...

No, you can be me. And Pirion Flax. Pirion, what have you been up to this week, you bald, egg-headed idiot? Not much. You know, just the usual. I couldn't do it. I had a very boring response plan. Don't worry.

I got your back. I got your back. You saved me. Wow, that's like the perfect intro. Can we, like, honestly, I couldn't have done that better. Put that in a jar and mass manufacture it. We have hundreds of more episodes. Just reuse that one

over and over and over again it's fine yeah people need those things in in these trying consistency they need weeks they need that what are we week six now into uh yeah i think it's week six lockdown i don't know like i'm starting to six fuck me no no one saw this coming did they right i was i watched um contagion right you know um not very good it's not a very good no it's trending on on amazon and netflix and everything though because i guess it's kind of got parallels because it's like about a global pandemic yeah and some things that are in the movie kind of are like oh that's that's right but then there's bits of the movie where there's like hundreds and hundreds of people just still like because social distancing people didn't even think that was going to be a thing like there's

this bit where the virus is in like full flow and it cuts to all these shots of people in boardrooms discussing it and there's like hundreds of people next to each other and like massive crowds of people looking up and like in like times square looking up at billboards and stuff and looking at tvs and like right it's just like 10 shots of people doing the opposite of social distancing which is yes it's like social gathering for being told what to do it's like i guess it would be a very boring film if everybody just stayed at home because somebody said there are going to be loads of films about the coronavirus that come out of this and I'm thinking they'd be incredibly dull because the main character goes home and stays home for six weeks minimum and then it's just all news I guess they're just watching the

news and going once a day it's easy to it's not very dramatic I don't know I think people do filmmakers do like to tap into situations that we're all familiar with right you need a good

plague, not this one which is tragic but it's not exciting what kind of you know what i mean kind of plague do we need people kind of plague we're talking about did you watch the film outbreak right that's the one with the uh with the infected uh apes or the monkeys yes it's a monkey it's got dustin hoffman in it's actually got a big old car it's got dustin hoffman morgan freeman uh donald sutherland it's got reene Russo it's got Kevin Spacey it's got

Cuba Gooding Jr the list goes on this is definitely a 90s movie 1995 very 90s yeah of course it is graphically the 90s

the script isn't very good but Dustin Hoffman knows how to deal with a bad script what you do is you say all the lines very quickly and with passion

and that's how you do it and it's like so someone will say Sam it's like Morgan Freeman will say, Sam, I don't know what you think about it. You can't go into that town.

I've already been there. God damn it. I've been in that town. You can't tell me what to do. We've been friends for a long time and if you try to stop me, by God, I'm going to do it anyway.

It's like, that's not great. But the fact is that Dustin Hoffman's delivery, he just speeds it up and he goes, and you just get an idea of what he's feeling without actually paying

attention to what he's saying i thought very clever very clever any any aspiring actors out there if you've got duff lines just say them fast that's the hoffman rule right get them out the way because a lot of the time acting is about being willing to pause and like give like you know because everyone feels like they have to fill every dead air like like there's people on stage are always very scared to leave space i think that's because it makes it look like you've forgotten your lines yeah that's the first thing i think when an actor has a long pause on in a play i've been to a few plays when there's a big pause you think oh god they've forgotten their lines but then they they come back you're like okay he hasn't forgotten his

lines he's just pausing but it's a little jarring i don't think anyone thinks that about movies though no movies no because they would say cut cut cut and he'd say what i was pausing for dramatic effect we go no dustin just say it fast get the lines done we're gonna it's a frog's coming down we're gonna sort them out. We're all going to eat them. But the drama in that was the virus mutates into a horrible new form and there's the military trying to blow the town up and Dustin Hoffman

has to stop them. They're trying to find this damn monkey and both Kevin Spacey and Rene Russo catch the illness because they've got terrible sharps discipline.

Like Kevin Spacey just walks too far. His cord catches on something and it rips his suit and he catches the virus and doesn't tell anyone which i think that's pretty terrible and then renee russo is doing something with a with a a needle and stabs herself in the hand i was like these guys are clowns so that's the drama is that they're just not very good and also people are bleeding out of the eyes and the mouths and go like so there's drama there rather than the coronavirus which is not as dramatic but because it's real life it's it's scarier what did i play the other day oh yeah me and lydia played a game the other day which we

play all these fmv games we played one called i know you do the complex which just came out but it happens to be about um like a kind of a virus well not a virus it's more like a kind of a virus. Well, not a virus. It's more like a disease. And this guy infects himself by not only fucking up, taking out an IV out of someone's arm, so he gets blood all over himself. But then when he gets stabbed in the leg, he puts his bloody hand. Oh, oh, my leg.

He rubs his bloody hand all over his injury and it's like you fucking idiot I want a I want a close up action shot of the germs

going off it's like a CGI cut to extreme zoom of the germs going oh like scuttling into his body and the blood cells go no

no and the white blood cells we can't hold them back and then cut back to real life. That would be more dramatic. They need to dramatize what's happening inside the body. You say we just sat at home. We need like a kind of bacterial tower defense. I think we need a bacterial inside out. Have you seen that movie? Yes.

So we need that but with germs. What the Pixar movie inside out? Yeah. I loved it. I thought it was amazing. Oh, it was a good one, yeah. It was a very good one. But they need that, but with germs. It's not always remembered as a good one. I thought it was fine.

I don't know, but it doesn't... People don't seem to give it the accolades. I think it should get... It's a very touching movie. I cried several times during it, and I thought it handled the subject very well. And, and of course it has one of the biggest tearjerker moments i'm not going to spoil it for anybody that hasn't seen with bing bong with bing bong yeah that's the one which is a real that's the one that gets me every time yeah it's a stupid fucking little

face you know and he's just like go without me And they do it and you're like It just like destroys your heart That's about growing up isn't it That's what it's all about I mean that movie's been out for like five years or something Yeah it's true it's been out for a while I think we're outside of spoiling territory That's fair Spoiling a children's movie from five years ago

I think we'll be alright At least we're not talking about 1990 children's movies as we normally seem to do. Have you watched any shit daytime movies this week, B-Flex? Let me think. No, because we found a new thing. First of all, Grayson Perry's Art Club. We watched that last night.

What the fuck are you talking about? Right. What do you mean, what the fuck am I talking about? Grayson Perry's. Yeah yeah you fucking stupid idiot yeah do you know who grayson perry yes yeah i bet you don't even um tall wait that's one person he's that tall what what are you going to describe you were talking about two people grace and perry no No, Grayson Perry. Right, sorry. I guess a cross-dresser, right? That's what you call... He does drag occasionally, but he's a potter.

That's his main art form is pottery. He's a potter? Yeah, he's famous for his pots. And he's incredible. Honestly, you may joke, but he's a genuinely amazing artist. And he's doing this show where he's reaching out to people at home and saying with the spare time you've got get back into making art and do some paintings for someone who did paintings not that long ago lulu i'm a little surprised that you're so

what have you been working on recently me oh i don't i i just it's like um a cathartic thing just uh yeah to make some mess it's like it's like a childartic thing just to make some mess. It's like a child. Yeah. I don't feel much more like than an animal stomping my feet in, into just pain. Well, good. But you enjoyed making it. You enjoyed it.

It's different. That's the message. Yeah. It's cool. So, sorry, he has a show now where he is doing what? It's like a show made under lockdown and he's encouraging people to make art and then send him pictures of it and he sort of decides it's not like a contest like i'm sorry you're going home this week sam you know it's not like

that it's more like he just talks about art he makes some art he looks at uh art and it sort of chats to other artists on on sort of uh zoom or whatever and uh talks about what they're working on and all that kind of stuff it's good it's really good very relaxing show i recommend it and then yeah we've been watching gordon ramsay's kitchen nightmares usa which has very very quickly become one of the household's favorite shows my kids love it it's a classic isn't it it's always somehow like every episode i've seen of that across i guess what must be multiple seasons because they just show reruns of it on tv or whatever yes it's always some ma and pa restaurant in new jersey okay that sells that that that does like italian food

or you know you know pasta and whatever and it always looks good and there's always like these old people that work there like like their uncles or like yeah just these weird old guys that look like they're like vietnam war vets or something and act like they're vietnam war vets as well like they're all distant and like just like you know there's a cigarette hanging out of their mouth while they're preparing the calzone and stuff. And it just seems to be the same thing every time. But it's really good at the same time. I don't understand, like, how.

You could play a real bingo with it. Like, things that you're looking out for. Number one, like you said, very old mom and pop stuff. That's a bingo. Italian food made wrong. That's a bingo. Rehe made wrong that's a bingo yeah reheating frozen stuff like the restaurant there's always there's always some old ass chicken in the fridge he always like what the fuck is this it's like oh it's a chicken it's fucking sick it's disgusting it stinks like

yeah all the time you've got it next to cooked meat shut it down if ramsey shuts the restaurant down dramatically in mid in mid dining session that's a bingo because that's another one if he says get it together that's another one because he says that all the time yeah you've you stopped caring that's another thing he says all the time if they say i think my food is good despite the fact it's definitively terrible like he orders like eight things at the start of the show, tries it because God, look at that. If their sauces are watery, if he encourages the serving staff

to put their fingers into the food to feel how cold it is, that's a bingo. There are lots of things that happen every time. If Gordon runs his hand along a surface to show us how disgustingly grimy it is, that's another classic. I love it.

There's all these little things that you can look out for. A consistent thing is people losing faith in their staff to deliver the food on time and panicking. Obviously, once you start losing customers, you can't afford to buy in fresh stuff every day. That's their first response is, we'll buy frozen stuff in and then we'll defrost it as we need it.

And we'll have to do that in a microwave. So therefore, we'll buy frozen stuff in and then we'll defrost it as we need it and we'll have to do that in a microwave so therefore we'll start cooking in microwaves like it's a panic thing and they stopped caring about the quality of the food it's tragic and this is like this restaurant's been here for 30 years my mum has asked me to run it and i don't know what i'm doing but they had a two-parter the other night from a restaurant called Mangia Mangia and they only microwaved stuff that's it it was all microwaved their head chef was not a chef he didn't even know how to make pasta Gordon Ramsay says to him tell the chef right now I want pasta here's the ingredients he gives the list of ingredients to the waitress and sends her back there and he can't make he makes

this awful stodgy thing uh it's incredible and then it turns out he's on drugs and they have to fire him and oh it's it's magic it's i mean do you reckon a lot of these people are just sorry you're just like having a schwarzenegger does this make you not do you think all restaurants are kind of a little bit bumbling though like do you reckon every restaurant is a little bit bumbling though like checking every restaurant is a little bit it kind of depends where the restaurant is as well in the states you have like you know if you're in in london or whatever there's like certain parts of the city where there's really great restaurants or you know like you they'll be like uh they'll just be like a really popular restaurant by like a

really like acclaimed chef that's in the middle of like somewhere exciting or whatever yeah like all these places on ramsey's kitchen nightmares usa or whatever like these mom and pop places are just like out in the sticks like they're off like you know they you have to like take like the exit off the highway and it's just there. Like nothing else is around it and stuff. They're like a small town in Colorado. Yeah. We're the only Italian restaurant for 50 miles. Yeah.

It's just, and I think that that has a lot to do with everything. You know what I mean? Like, I think they just, there's nobody really around them to give them any like real like competition or anything. Yeah. That's definitely part of it they just become super complacent and they i don't think they really get it in the first place and that's that's exactly i honestly think that a lot of these people that think i like food i'll open a restaurant don't actually know how to cook

or what good food is exactly yeah and their menu stays the same for a very long time and it's terrible from the start. And they're like, it's what our customers like. It's like, yeah, but you have no customers. So you're appealing to a very small group of people who have no taste buds. And you're not appealing to other people who can taste food and think this sucks and never come back. Do you think that they decimated the taste buds in the first place? Like these people were normal people at one point.

They were like, let's try that place. And then they went in there and now it's just like some sort of sick twisted addiction like we can't stop coming here it's just the food just doesn't taste the same anymore i guess that yeah like i guess there are there's a lot of very proficient i mean i worked in a in a kitchen in a hotel for a while and there there were like two chefs, and they're both weird, weird people. One of them was a very tall, thin, kind of gaunt-looking man, like Lurch kind of thing. And the other one was a very overweight woman. And they were both very nice, actually, but they kind of, because they worked funny hours, you know.

It's always the evening. You come in in the afternoon, you prepare for the evening, don't't you and then kind of end up going home quite late you know when the kitchen closes it's a funny time funny work hours plus like um i think i guess like the it's not so much it's it's such a massive thing like you said to me make pasta like do you just mean boiled dry pasta no he means make pasta no you have to like you you have to make it make pasta. Do you just mean boil dried pasta? No, he means make pasta. No, you have to make it from scratch, and then you have to season it and sauce it up. That sounds incredibly daunting.

It's not difficult. I've done it. It's really not hard. No, no, it's not that. They should be able to make fresh pasta every day. It doesn't take long. If all you're doing all day is cooking stuff, you'll be able to do that no No problem. I would have thought.

That would be part of your prep because once you've made it, you get your pasta cutter, you cut the flour into pasta, and then you just hang it to dry. It's fresh pasta or you can put it in the fridge at that point. And then it's just ready to go. Like Flack said, there's a lot of prep. Like if, say, the restaurant opens at five, they're in there at noon stuff and and keeping it warm and ready to go so that they can plate up dishes right yeah it's like yeah but what you don't do is just buy in fucking frozen meatballs and defrost them in a microwave which is what they were doing because he they were he was like why don't you make your meatballs

fresh and the chef trevor says well last time made them, they kind of fell apart. So I just stopped making them. I was like, that's a terrible attitude for a head chef. Just go, ah, that's too difficult. You know what I mean? He needs to figure out how to make fucking meatballs. You're an Italian restaurant. You don't buy in frozen meatballs. And the owner was like, I thought that was how it was done.

And this is what Sips was saying about they just never had it in the first place. They don't know what they're doing. And they thought, we'll open a restaurant. I think a lot of people think that. Oh, we'll open a restaurant i think a lot of people think that i will open a restaurant i like i think that takes balls actually you know like a lot of people a lot of people will start up a business or whatever and it and most of the time it'll fail and a lot of people just will never even bother to start up a business but these people have gone beyond all that and said this is probably going to fail and i don't think i'm going to be any good at this but fuck it let's go for it anyway and you gotta you gotta take your hat off to those

people that's nuts i guess so like those people who decide they're going to climb everest and have no idea what they're doing you know you gotta take your hat off to them yeah there is this i saw a news article that was like that the coronavirus pandemic is revealing people's poor cooking skills and that everyone relies on sort of fast food and you know pre pre-cooked meals and and and it's it's it's it is a thing that's happened i don't i don't i almost like i think if i was thinking about having to if i wanted to like learn to cook something cook something, I would be scared, I think mostly to throw shit away. I guess, imagine if I'm cooking something and I don't like it or think it's terrible.

I feel like I don't want to waste good food by destroying it. I guess that's what you have to do. You have to learn somehow, right? You're going to make mistakes, yeah. I mean, I think that the whole point of cooking is that you need to do you have to learn somehow right yeah you're gonna make mistakes yeah i mean i think that the whole point of cooking is that you need to do it consistently yeah like you don't have to cook every single day if you if you have a busy lifestyle or whatever but you've certainly got a when it comes to cooking you have to you have to just practice like it took me a long time to know

how certain things cooked how much time know when they were cooked just from looking at them knowing how to taste things and adjust it what does this need it's just practice like yeah but i don't know why people say stuff you have to like add a pinch of salt and then taste it and then add and before you know you've eaten the whole thing you're like oh just a little just a little taste i mean my You just eat the whole thing. I guess my cooking is... I have a frying pan, and sometimes I boil some water. But I don't like to boil stuff anymore.

I haven't boiled anything for years. Is that something that people still do? I thought we had to steam stuff now. I heard that it was actually just better to heat up vegetables in the microwave as well because it just keeps the vet keeps the disgusting keeps the nutrients makes no bit well i steam apparently steaming uh and you can't overboil vegetables either right you fucking can sips of course you can i've you know no no what i mean is you you you shouldn't overboil though oh okay, I thought you meant it was impossible.

That's the major problem with my cooking is over boiling and over frying and over fucking over doing everything. Steaming is very good, but it does leave it crunchy. And I don't mind that. But Mrs. F and the kids, well, crunchy vegetables. The thing is,

they can season them after, right? So like if a, if a vegetable that comes out of the steamer, it's really crunchy um you can then just like put it in like a frying pan with like some butter and stuff for like just you know even just a hot minute what don't they like about the crunch is it the effort of actually crunch no it's the texture so my eldest will not eat fruit or vegetables like unless you bribe her i'm she's 11 like she should yes it's the same

she she just she just won't do it like cauliflower cheese for example one of my favorites barely counts as a vegetable dish because it's covered in cheese yeah cauliflower cheese is is yeah i mean that is not really have you introduced your daughter to the wonders of ketchup? Because, man, it's a game changer. Yeah, even with the sauce. She's like, I don't like the texture. And the funny thing is, is Mrs. F is like, why doesn't she eat her vegetables? Mrs. F is just as fucking bad when it comes to saying,

oh, I don't like the texture. So I was like, I wonder where she got it from. She's probably listening to this one too, right? She's way behind on the drive-thru. She's stopped. That's good. She's stopped. I can say whatever we want about her.

I think you have to find something that they do like and make sure to have that available. Do you know what I mean? Well, the problem is that they like Maltesers. And you can't just have that on tap. That's not a vegetable. Could you imagine if M maltesers was a vegetable do your kids do that thing you're not allowed to have your ice cream till you've eaten your

maltesers they've got like they've got a plate in front of them and it's got like mashed potatoes and maybe like some broccoli but then maybe they had like you know like mozzarella bites or something like that right right so they've eaten all the mozzarella bites because those are good you know and then they leave like the mashed potato and the broccoli but everybody else has just started eating and then they do this thing where they're just like talking all the time and like delaying and time wasting up to the point where they can say yeah you know i'm a bit full i don't think i can finish my my dinner sort of thing but you know it's coming so you're constantly like come on come on you need to eat eat and then

you spend the whole time just saying like come on eat and then they're like no no they they're just not having it they they just won't do it sort of thing and then um and then after they're done they're full they're like can i have some ice cream now what i thought you were full and then you give them a bowl of ice cream uh because they asked for it and and that's fucking like there's like sparks flying off the inside of the bowl it's devoured in like a second well what i what i when i was a kid i used to tell people that i have a second stomach for dessert there's always room for ice cream very seriously well there that's that's a common that's a very common yeah and and my kids do the same thing they're like well we've still got our dessert stomach. So we go. Well, it's an interesting thing though, isn't it?

Cause like I can eat a big meal and be really full, but like sometimes I'll still want like just like one after eight or something, you know, just like, just something sweet just to take the edge off. Like it, like it, not even like a big piece of cake or anything, just like, just something small, you know, like a little bonbon or something that fucking like a rollo, one rollo, just something small you know like a little bonbon or something fucking like a rolo one rolo just whatever you know like just something you imagine if you were in gordon ramsay's fucking kitchen nightmares yeah yeah his house right and tips that'd be my dessert it'd be like one on a really big plate one rolo in the middle with like some nesquik fucking sauce like you know zigzag around it or whatever.

That little swoop of sauce. And then just like a bit of frosting sugar. And a Malteser. A halved Malteser. And that's it. What the fuck is this? Dessert, bitch. I think that is it.

Man, I'd be great on that show. It's fresh. It's fresh. I don't think you have to conform to like what other people's ideas of food and meals are as well you need to find your own way um through it i think obviously that's a bad ignore that if you use recipes they're they know what they're doing just follow a recipe they're there for a reason yeah they're there for a reason some recipes once you've once

you've cracked it and you can do rest yes of course they are but you've got to figure out which ones are good which ones are bad. Luckily, online now there's a rating system. Very good. Where someone will say, ignore the part about the butter. We use cream instead, much better. And it'll be like, okay, that actually makes sense.

Some of the recipes are a bit shit. We made the one the other day. It was meant to be Pastor Alfredo in the pressure cooker. My fucking God, it was a disaster. It was a disaster. It was one of the worst meals we've ever cooked. Mrs. F made it. And she was like, don't look at it. a disaster it was a disaster it was one of the worst meals we've ever cooked mrs f made it and she was like don't look at it just eat it close your eyes it was bad it was bad bless her she was disappointed well poor family but my my

kids are getting interested in cooking it might be like an american recipe though because american stuff is it's very different it was an american recipe, though, because American stuff is very different. It was an American recipe. They expect less. No offense, America, but your food fucking sucks. Well, no, but it's just the ingredients are just genuinely different, too. I think if it used, I don't know, a cup of fucking maize powder or whatever the fuck they have there. Half the time you look at recipes online, you're like, what the fuck is this thing? Do you know what I mean?

It's some American thing. What is that? Doesn't every supermarket have kosher salt? It's like, what? No. I don't know what the difference between kosher salt and non-kosher salt is. Does it taste different?

What food is truly American, though? Hamburgers, I'd say. Really? Were they invented in America? food is like truly american though like you know like hamburgers i'd say really were they were they invented in in america i would be i would be fairly sure they were right i mean i would say modern way of eating them you mean like with a patty and a bun and but making it a foot tall yeah i would say that the keys to america i don't mean putting like an american um like twist on it i mean like like stuff that was i'm just trying to think off the top of my head and most of the stuff that comes to mind that I think would have come directly

from America nowhere else before that is kind of like fast food or like some derivative of fast food. I would also suggest things like grits, collard greens, all that kind of like that deep south cooking yeah i don't feel it had a history before america other than i know a lot of that deep south cuisine came from french right africans and coming over for when they were brought over i should say they brought a lot of their cooking style with them because you know the the white man isn't going to cook for them when you're a fucking slave, you've got to cook for yourself. So a lot of their recipes came over with them.

So you'll find a lot of that Deep South cooking is heavily influenced by the stuff that the slave sort of trade basically imported against people's will. And it's been adjusted and it's been Americanized. Well, I think there wasn't for a long time an idea that food could cause you to be sick. Because most people in the world have struggled to eat enough for the past, you know, couple thousand years. And I mean, the thing is, like a long time ago, stuff that we really take for granted nowadays, seasoning and all that kind of stuff, was imported from far away and expensive. It was only like the upper classes of society that had access to any of that shit. Like if you were like a manual worker or you worked like, you know, even before factories were a thing,

you were just boiling like any food you could get and eating it like that. Pretty much. Like there's nothing else you know you had your sugar ration kind of thing like you had you were limited in the amount of kind of these especially things like i mean the i mean during the war imagine like the modern american diet which i think is still eaten by a lot of people it's a lot of red meat and processed meat a lot of butter candy sweets fried fried stuff um eggs cheese potatoes corn cheese and you know cheese uh yeah dairy stuff like there's a lot of a lot of that because it's lovely and it really tastes good but if you imagine in the war like those were the things that

were the rationed the hardest really not in america though they didn't write rationing not necessarily but but for but it was kind of this thing that vegetables were cheap and free and easy, but now we have this very good industrial base making these things cheaply. And so they're delicious and why wouldn't you eat them every day if you weren't thinking about anything? And I think that there was this time when people didn't associate eating that eating lifestyle with any bad effects um and i think that it's still hard today to convince people to you know put vegetables in there because i mean bear in mind we are coded to think oh high fat good you know because it tastes good you're not

you're not meant to get that like when we're walking around the availability of that now is yeah it's rare that you get it's too much because you have to kill something basically it's like something you're gonna do every day that's why that's why like we've we've i'm sure i've talked about gallbladders in the past but we don't we just don't need them anymore because it's they're just just like the, the point of them was what Flax is just saying, like back a long time ago, you, you might've eaten meat like once a year,

if you were lucky enough to fucking kill something big enough, that was, you know, a high source of fat. And otherwise you were just like foraging berries and shit like that for the rest of the time. You know what I mean? And then to break that down,

your stomach's not used to that level of or that volume of fat entering its system to help break it down you've got a gallbladder that just like springs into action it's like it like triggers it to to go to work sort of thing but nowadays like because we consume so much fat like clippy i see you've eaten some fat today. It's been like bypassed now. Like most of our stomachs produce enough bile now to just deal with the insane amount of fat that's entering us sort of thing. Speak for yourself.

Well, yeah. Bile boy. Bile boy. Bile boy. Bile boy boy stop it stop it you're creeping me up grits are very american because they're actually uh native american recipe native american i think yeah i suppose there's, there'll be some, some like some influence from that too. But yeah, I know it's,

it's weird to think like, I think a lot of the, a lot of the food that we sort of associate with being American had definitely came after the industrial revolution and like processed foods and stuff like that, right? It's not like there's,

there's no like, it's not like, like Americans wouldn't have an equivalent of like the Cornish pasty or something like that. I don't think, you know what I mean? Or maybe they do. I don't know. I don't know enough about it.

I just- I mean, they've got, they've also got a lot of central and South American stuff. Yeah. Like if you think about the further South you go, like I actually really liked the fact that America absorbs food from all over the place. That's something that we didn't do until fairly recently. Well, they had to though because they're that that a lot of that continent is just

uh like before europeans came over there was you know like the like native native peoples that lived there or whatever but most of that continent is it was colonized by europeans so like i think it's it's probably it is an immigrant population from all over the world. Nature to seek out foods from their original sort of... Of all the different foods being put in a big pot. But I mean, you can get like Tex-Mex food and you can get Mexican food. Yeah, but that's all old Spanish or Portuguese

or whatever food, right? I don't know. Because a lot of that stuff is cooked with stuff that didn't exist back in Spain oh what do you mean stuff that they might have found like on the on the continent like when they arrived sort of thing so yeah it could have been new dishes created by colonists or whatever I have a lot of respect for chefs honestly of any of all types because I remember we had to do like um me back in the day we had to do like a challenge of uh making some pancakes um and stuff for people it was like an overcooked challenge

and um we had to like oh god it was it was so intense like people were ordering pancakes and i had to cook them up and man it sounds like the simplest thing in the world to do just to make some pancakes right but when you're doing it to order and people are waiting on you it's suddenly like this incredibly intense um the pressure and maybe that's why they're so weird too in kitchen nightmares and stuff don't you like even even places especially places that have like a big fucking menu i think that's one of the things i always take away from kitchen nightmares is that oh yeah is that big menu these restaurants have like this mega menu and you just you just think it doesn't need to be like that like some of the most expensive fancy places in the world just do one thing or maybe two things you know well yeah they'll have like signature dishes that like everybody will go there for more or less and they'll have a couple of

people that will want something different but there's a lot of places that will just have like a very like set menu you know like there's restaurants that where like like you said there's just they just do one thing and that's what they'll prep for and that's you go in there and if that's what you want great and if that's not what you want well there's other restaurants you know what i mean like but it's like it's not what you want, well, there's other restaurants. You know what I mean? But it's like it's courses too, right? It's like usually like four courses or something. I feel like the most successful restaurants in the world are the ones with the smallest menus.

Yes. McDonald's has a small menu. It does have a pretty small menu, surprisingly, doesn't it? They tried to expand it to include some stuff. Again, most people just go there for one reason though, right? Yeah, they go there for one thing. They want burger and fries. They just want a Big Mac and some fries.

Yeah, that's it. So it's simple. How is that lesson not filtered down? The odd thing is like, even if you go to a really good Chinese restaurant or a really good Indian restaurant, the menu is still going to be pretty fucking big. But I think the reason for that is a lot of that food is just, I mean, if you think about Chinese cooking, a lot of it is cooked right then and there in a wok, right? So it just depends what spices or whatever you put in.

And the same with Indian cooking. It's not like, okay, this one's going to require four hours of pressure. With Indian stuff, it's just like the base is kind of the same, but it's just the seasoning, right? Yes, right. So you make one big pot of like this base dal or whatever. And then if somebody wants like the ultra spicy you just take a bit out spice it up there you go done yeah they give it a different name and yeah it's a different name but it's actually it's just it's just the same base with like

different seasoning across i'm actually happy with if that because i assume they must have to have like that a system yeah they can't have tubs of all that curry pre-made because you wouldn't have anywhere to fucking store it. When there's like, there's a curry place I ordered from the other night on Just Eat. There must have been like 80 different curries. Yeah.

But there's not that much difference between them all. No. The different meat, different sauce base. Is it tomato-y? Is it coconut-y? Does it have a lot of onions in? Does it have peppers in?

So it's like, all right, they want a curry, cool. Bam, we've got this bam bam bosh curry mate we should do it you know i mean there's this guy i know we should we should do what no we should well here's the best way to do it right this guy at the market run a fucking restaurant he basically makes like a we'd be paella like immediately he makes welcome to the grand opening oh shit

we're shut down no the way to do it right is like you just you you don't no pressure okay so he makes

this paella like the night before cooks it overnight really slowly and then just brings the fucking mega dish right and then he stands there

and just I've had his paella. It's very good. Anytime someone wants one, he just scoops a bit out, puts it in a box, there you go, paella. And he doesn't have to do any cooking at the time. He doesn't have to do any worrying.

Here's our angle. Here's our angle. There are three dishes because it's the Triforce restaurant. There are three dishes. Right. We each get to prepare our dish and then we sell them.

So it's like, what would your dish be, Sips? Special K with milk. Yours, Lewis? Well, well, well, that's a real problem. We need to talk about this. How do you fucking do that? That's fucking easy as hell. Well, I'll be like the toast of the town.

How does he do it? Well. How do you do it? Well, I'm guessing it's not pre-made. You're going to make it live for people. Gordon will be there. Is this special K fresh? Did you make this make this special i just opened the box yeah unbelievable send i don't want this disgusting yeah it tastes like i believe it gordon eat your fucking maltesers

as well gordon jesus yeah what's your dish lewis oh fuck fucking hell um what's your dish Lewis? Oh fuck Fucking hell It would probably be It's like a salad right You'd make a salad Some sort of salad with like beetroot It'd be like a mushroom Avocado and shit like that It'd be fajitas You're going to do a vegetarian or vegan fajita

Yeah I'm going to do a slab of raw meat You have to prepare that every time though What do you mean a slab of raw meat. Right. You have to prepare that every time, though. What do you mean a slab of raw meat? I mean, it's just to counteract your guy's vegetarian agenda. I'm going to serve a slab of raw meat. And I'll cook it however you want it right then and there, as long as it involves frying it or grilling it.

That's it. What can I do instead? How about I do toasties? Cheese toasties, just with the veggie cheese. So it's like the tofu cheese. Okay, so again, I'm offering an alternative. That way we get both. No, we can work together though.

Because you could put the meat in the toastie if you wanted it. Well, if you're going to do meat, I should do some sort of fish then so that we get everything, right? Yeah. All of God's creatures on one menu we have to make sure that we we get everything so like I reckon cheese toasties yeah Lewis will do the plants and stuff Flax will do the the if you've got you if you've got the breakfast menu and I'll do the lunch menu I'll do seafood and then actually the the meat honestly is like a dinner like you go to any fancy steak restaurant and they just give you a fucking steak.

And the sides, they're not really needed. You just go to a steak restaurant and eat a massive steak. I think we've got a balanced diet here, guys. Yeah. Have you seen Parks and Rec? Yeah. Yeah. So there's an episode in there where Rob rob lowe's character cooks this ridiculous burger

that's all swanson yeah complicated and it's got it's all vegetarian it's made with this and the other and ron just buys a big pack of minced beef yeah and just does bam puts it in a burger grills it puts it in a bun here you go and everyone's like this is better and i'm thinking of course it is because that's what you want from a burger is the delicious cooked beef with the fat filling, you know, soaking into the bread. Of course.

Job done. But there will be some people who don't want that. That's where you guys come in. Yeah. So I'll do the Ron Swanson style. It's 100% meat. That'll be me.

And you guys can do whatever else you want to do. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I don't want to do any... I don't want to... Yeah, maybe I don't want to do the fake, fakey fake cheese instead of... It's no point, is there?

It's just never the same. Peanut butter sandwiches. Can't go wrong. Peanut butter and jam sandwiches. God, there's so much you can do. Cooking is such a vibrant option. There's so much choice. I guess everyone really does a bit of it.

No, well, that's the thing. I think nowadays a lot of people don't. Really, though? But they must do a bit. Home delivery is bigger than ever. They must fry up some bacon and sausages or something. No, I doubt it. I don't think that many people do i think i think

older people probably do but i don't think your your 20 somethings now do i think they just it's just easier and cheaper for them to deliver or fucking some shit straight to their door right like it's quite expensive though it adds up doesn't it like it's it's not that uh you know i don't know though i mean it's the most most like delivered food i was trying to explain to my my youngest why it's more expensive to buy a sandwich than it is to buy all this stuff to make many sandwiches and i think most people think i need this now i just need the sandwich now because i'm at work and i need a sandwich so i'll go buy that sandwich and i was trying to say to her look if you bought every day I need this now. I just need the sandwich now because I'm at work and I need a sandwich. So

I'll go buy that sandwich. And I was trying to say to her, look, if you bought every day, one sandwich, one bag of crisps and a drink, let's say even if it's a meal deal and it's like four pounds, let's just imagine it's four quid for that, right? You could buy a loaf of bread, mayonnaise, ham, lettuce, tomato, and a multi pack of crisps were probably the same amount of money and bring water from home. Yeah. But I said you're paying for the convenience. And this was like blowing her mind. But I think again, though, as well, I think it's one it's it's kind of a case of one or the other. Like, okay, if you if you order food in, and you're in the habit of doing that, but you go out and you're like, okay, I'm going to go buy a loaf of bread and stuff so that I can make a couple of sandwiches.

But you're also ordering food in at the same time. A lot of that food will just spoil, right? Because you're not using it. I feel like you have to either go fully one way or be very careful. Because even worse than not preparing food at home and just getting everything delivered in is wasting food, right? Oh, I hate wasting food. Like you end up chucking like half a loaf of bread away because you got through half of the other half went moldy by the time you got around to it because you had like 20 takeaways in between or whatever. Yeah.

It's no good, right? I know people that order food in all the fucking time like lunch and dinner they're ordering yeah that's crazy i mean i like they do that a lot in america for for for like some context i don't think like i don't think this is anything but just probably like like maybe just the way i was raised or just the way i've always been or whatever but like actual food delivered to my house i think happens maybe twice a year like sometimes we get a pizza and that's it like wow yeah like we never order food like once a week it's just because we we have our food shop come on a tuesday so normally by monday we've run out and we're down to the bare bones because we ordered just what we need for the week

right and it's like all right we've gone through all the stuff we've had the freezer stuff that we had let's get some takeaway in like that's our monday night food shop every day as well like we don't do really yeah we don't do big shops so like we get what we need to do an online shopping it's really good nowhere delivers over here it's not it's not a thing it's a small place so we still have to go to the shop but we go every day we don't go like i know in america or you know even in even in the uk now it's like you know these the supermarkets that are sort of like out out in the sticks that you drive to and you do like weeks worth of shopping or whatever uh you can do that here but but a lot of people don't i don't think maybe i might just be speaking for myself but we go every day we just

buy what we need like for that day or maybe like maybe like into the next day like you know like milk that's probably really good for not wasting well we don't waste we barely waste any it's crazy like but you're also getting the bargains that like if we get this today it's half price but we have to use it yeah sometimes you get like two for one stuff or whatever but like we sometimes we don't even bother like again because sometimes you get those two for one things and if it's something that you know like say it's like salad dressing or something like that right two for one yeah you're never going to use that yeah i never get the second one because it's just like fuck we're not going to go through two bottles of salad dressing in like the shelf life of a bottle

you know what i mean like we don't yeah we don't use it that much sort of thing so yeah just try to try to try to not waste you know there did used to be this thing called you know people used to do a weekly shop that was a very classic thing that people used to do they used to go and get a lot of stuff once a week and over the course of the last 20 or 30 years we've changed to multiple it's changed and people shop multiple for smaller things more often which is why most supermarkets i think it's the other way around though i think i think a long time ago it was it was very much you went every day like like because things weren't um as preserved as they are nowadays as well i also don't think people had a milk delivery every

day yeah freezers and like ice boxes and stuff like that but we're definitely seeing the return of the weekly shop apparently according to supermarkets because in this in this event people are going out less and they're doing bigger shops less frequently yeah and stocking up i still shop every day like i guess so you know what you know what's weird i was walking the dog this morning this is a two-part story because it's weird in both ways i'm walking the dog this morning she loves it we go to the park as we're walking there i walk past one of the houses near me and they've got their recycling boxes out and they had about 12 costco boxes that were had been crushed ready for recycling right and there must have been a hundred hundred and twenty, empty plastic bottles of water.

Right. Right. What the fuck were they doing? Did they think, oh, you can't drink the water anymore. And they were just living off bottled water. Some people, some people do don't drink tap water or don't trust. Like I just got a filter. I got one of those Brita filters.

But I've lived here for a long time. And I know that Brita filters. But I've lived here for a long time. And I know that the people that have done this have lived there for a long time. Because there's not much movement at that end of the road. Like people don't move out very often. They're the people that have been there since we moved in. What the fuck happened? Why have they got all these bottles of water? I think it's like a sort of a thing that people, some people think it tastes better.

Yeah. Some people think it's somehow better for you um some people are just i think it's got this image from marketing that somehow it's healthy or better for you but i watched the thing about how it's made of stuff and saw a thing that said that fiji water had more like feces in it per you know it was that that was the bottle it was fiji water yeah that was the one get me some of that but what i don't understand is why they've suddenly gone for hundreds of bottles of water because i would have seen this because of the marketing it feels like it's this thing that's actually somehow weird or different or better as because some people like it just but

yeah i guess it's it's like drinking it's better than drinking fucking Coke, I guess. Yeah, that's the one that gets me. Like, I remember when I was younger, where I grew up in Ottawa, in the suburbs, they introduced like this, their recycling scheme. This is early on. Like, this is back like in the late 80s. They introduced like a citywide recycling scheme. recycling scheme and so you had like a blue box that you put out onto your driveway with you know newspapers cardboard you know all the all the typical stuff that you recycle so like when they come around to pick up your garbage there's another truck coming close behind that was like a recycling truck take your blue box put all the stuff in take it to this place and sort it out or

whatever um but fuck me man like you walk down the street on you know like garbage there whatever and everybody's garbage would be out some of these blue boxes were just like overflowing with like empty cans of like pepsi and coke and so you just think jesus christ like hundreds of cans in one box like he couldn't couldn't possibly fit another can in there just like you just imagine like these fucking like blobs like like from wally or something sitting in their fucking house like jab of the hut just like drink knocking back cokes like fuck's sake so much for dinner ma more mints more coke fuck's sake oh man i i drink fizzy i drink i drink the sparkling water as instead of

like soda like just carbonated water yeah i can understand that as a sort of thing and yeah yeah and it's it's convenient too to have a bottle of it so here's the other thing that happened uh let my dog off the lead she we we she's been we've been letting off the lead for for months now she's cool with it she's playing around on the grass and everything just already how old is your dog she's like eight months old fuck they grow up so fast eh yeah i know they do they really do and so she she's running around enjoying herself sniffing stuff she does a wee you know she's hanging out and then she looks at me and she just fucking takes off oh yeah and she just runs yeah and

i'm like she's never done this before and i was like what the fuck is she doing no she wasn't testing me she ran home she just ran all the way home she just peaced out of the walk like i saw her running and there's like a little ridge and once they go down the ridge they're like on the path around the park and i see her go down the ridge and i'm calling her and suddenly i see her running over the bridge and i was like what the fuck is she doing i was like oh my god like she's done this before sometimes she just goes fuck it she just goes home i got so i got home i knew where she was and there she was scratching the door and i was like what the fuck are you doing a dog flap for her so she can let herself in no way jesus you could just walk herself be crazy just walk herself i hate

that i hate that get a flap hey i got a funny dog story i've been uh i reinstalled fallout 4 okay i played fallout 76 i liked it enough it's still i don't think it's amazing but it's it it's a nice fallout experience like the world is really nice really detailed and stuff i like the setting and stuff it obviously satisfied you because you ended up installing fallout 4 so i guess it was i reinstalled fallout 4 with a whole bunch of mods and i'm having a fun time okay so the other day i'm out in the wasteland and i've got the you know dog meat following me around or whatever uh and then all of a sudden it's like dog meat has found something so i was like oh shit what is it go check him Found a fat man.

Just randomly. Just found a gigantic mini nuke launcher. You know? Jesus. Cool, thanks. Just found one. Good boy. All done.

Yeah. What a game. What a game. Just a nuclear bazooka. I've been really back into Fallout recently. I've forgotten how much I love the setting and the lore and most of the games. Funnily enough, 76 was what got me back into it, which has such a bad rap. And yeah, there's definitely parts of it that aren't great.

But I think overall, it's actually pretty good. Did you play it solo? Because they've relaunched it with yes yeah so with the with the new with the wastelander characters and and humans being in it again it definitely makes it feel more of like a fallout game i think like even if you just played through the the some of the missions are really good some of the holotapes the voice acting is phenomenal like some of them are really good some of them are really funny it's got all the stuff that you'd expect from a fallout game all the stuff that you really like from it you you can scrap all the junk i like doing that you can build a settlement um that you can then transport around with you which is kind of cool

but there's like there's limits to all this stuff so it part it sometimes it feels limiting and not so great but the actual like world is huge like it's it's it's much more detailed than four which i because i played for i played for a lot but on and off throughout the years or whatever and now that i'm playing it after 76 i'm finding like you go into a building you're like fuck there's just nothing in here like the the buildings are so sparse compared to 76 like i know it's a big meme to say that's like four times the detail, but it actually is much more detailed. Like there's a lot more stuff.

It must have taken them forever to build like all the locations and stuff. And it's just... Do you think the negative stuff about it was more about the launch and all the stuff around it? And now... It was really buggy as well, wasn't it? It was really janky. It still is a bit janky, the combat and stuff. Like, I don't know what it is more so than Fallout 4.

I remember being somewhat janky, but actually going back to it now after 76, it's like, it's amazing. Like, it's so smooth, the gameplay, like the combat and stuff. In 76, it's like, it's really weird. The guns are slow and sluggish but the enemies move very quickly sometimes almost like it's like a like a frame rate issue or something like like like a feral ghoul will jump and then uh it's like it skips like 25 frames and then he's like right next to you and you're like what like where you know and you the guns are so slow and unresponsive and the hit register isn't great so it's like sometimes that's frustrating still online yes yeah i think

that's why yeah because it's like a multiplayer you have to connect to servers that's it yeah yeah even if you're on your own so still like so some of that line kind of it doesn't fully ruin the experience but it it's sort of like it's a negative i feel like the fact that you're just playing fallout 4 says it's not very good though i mean it's like you it's like you were disappointed by it no it's not that i just it it's just again you feel limited in what you can do because it is meant to be like a multiplayer game, right? And it has all of the hallmarks of a multiplayer game with like its end game that's grindy. All you're doing is finding like that 1% better weapon

than the one you currently have. You know what I mean? Like it's got all of that stuff in it, which is, I think when you get to that point, you're pretty much done with the game or I would be for sure. I don't think I'd play beyond that. I'd only play for the content, you know? like if every once in a while they're like, Oh, they found a new

vault in Appalachia. Like, okay, cool. Like more content. I'll go and like, you know, explore that, that, that sounds great. But like, I wouldn't be in it just for the, for like min maxing the end game. You know what I mean? like yeah most online multiplayer games become that right that's just like a a mechanic for like those types i mean it's any edge you can get over yes other people right is that's the big motive i mean and definitely in tarkov yes um it feels like that like getting a slightly better armor means you're going to win that yeah of course as a yeah but but honestly though i i honestly think that 76 isn't a terrible game like there is a fallout game in there that's actually quite enjoyable if you play it by yourself

and just play it for what it is you know like some of the stories do the things that you want to do um and then you know what i mean but yeah fallout 4 fallout 4 wins because you can you can mod it like i'm not playing vanilla Fallout 4. No, I saw you building some stuff. And I saw you hacking away at a glowing ghoul for like 20 minutes with a machete yesterday. Yeah, yeah. Jesus Christ.

Yeah. It's good fun. I mean, Fallout 4 has had its life extended indefinitely because like Skyrim as well with you know with mods and stuff with the mods yeah uh but Fallout 76 will never get that because it's online right so we'll never be able to mod it I played um I played two tactics games this week I played XCOM Chimera Squad what do you think I I it was eight it was eight quid I yeah got through it I've really enjoyed it I'm gonna finish off streaming it tonight and uh over the weekend and i think it's good really good um just it's it's got its problems but actually i think for

eight quid it's amazing yeah it feels like a just like a stripped down um i think it's definitely like a precursor to the next x-com right i love the breach mechanic i think it was a bit of a test bed plus i think they learned a lot in the xcom 2 daily mission so there was this thing on xcom 2 where you could there was a different mission every day that no one played but they tried a lot of these things out where you got to play as aliens and stuff and so i think they took all the things that people found fun from that yeah and made it into a game yeah i mean there's a lot there's a huge weight of expectation not just from me because i'm really looking forward to XCOM 3, because I played so much XCOM 2.

I know you guys did. We've all played a lot of XCOM games. They're such huge titles that I think they're thinking, we can't just dump out the same thing again after all this time. We've got to add new stuff, new ideas, and a new enemy, and all the rest of it. And this is obviously very clear in Gears of War, Gears Tactics, which came out. So Gears of War. Yeah, I've been watching a couple of people play that.

It looks really good. It's 50 quid. Oh, Jesus. The Steam reviews are very mixed. I played it on the step up from normal difficulty, and I got my ass kicked. Yeah. It was really quite hard to begin with.

But I'm into it. There's a lot of seems like a lot of customization it's like it's like another tactics games there's definitely gonna be problems with it overpower things i don't think it's the most balanced thing in the world it's it's it's fun so what is it gears it's gears of war though right like the it's in the gears of war universe yeah which is kind of this not a great i'm something i've never really been not a very interesting universe yeah i've never even played aware of. Not a very interesting universe. Yeah, I've never even played the Gears of War games. Like I'm not,

I'm typically not a console game player. It's like alternate reality Earth where one day bugs invade. It's called Emergence Day. They just sort of come up out of the ground. Right. And the only way to deal with them all is to nuke all of the cities on Earth

with this thing called the Hammer of Dawn. with this thing called your daughter's hearing aid do you ever see that movie we saw we saw it lewis remember that one um a quiet place you're right yes jesus christ yeah it's just that high-pitched ringing it just makes their brains explode yeah i love that movie yes oh it was great i loved it yeah uh but anyway i i've played it i think it's it's actually okay i think you can get it for a quid on xbox game pass actually so uh that would be my tip rather than spending 50 quid on Steam. If you want to give it a go. Oh right, I got that. Yeah, I got Outer Worlds on that. Game Pass. It's like a quid a month on Xbox whatever, arcade, Game Pass or whatever the fuck it is.

Yeah, I might try that out. It looks good. It looks nice. The graphics and everything, the gameplay look really, really interesting. Like I like the, it looks really satisfying when you kill something. Like it's all, I don't know. I think it is. It's quite interesting, quite interesting quite different different gameplay and if you're feeling like a bit of uh x commie stuff after you after you've had finished camera score because it's kind of quite short camera scored yeah um it's like 20 20 hours or something but i mean yeah yeah you can't go wrong really it is it is actually i really like the breaching stuff i like i kind of in a way like the the more compact maps as well i like yeah sort of just breaching stuff i like i kind of in a way like the the more compact maps

as well i like yeah just breaching into somewhere you never even fucking used anyway yeah that was the super it felt sometimes in xcom 2 xcom 2 is amazing like you can't fault it for a lot of things but some of the some of the maps are so big and it just felt a little bit tedious sometimes having to turn after turn move your guys up a lot and stuff yeah because there's no where's the fun in that like just yeah i think i think that i think this sort of like more compact with the breaching and stuff is it's just it you feel like you're constantly fighting which is nice actually there's not not tons of downtime in between i also really like the taking your turn

and then they take their turn and then a couple of your guys i love that and then there are abilities that like bump people up the order because you're like i've got to lick this guy this turn with licky kicky guy and yeah no it is there's just some really nice new mechanics like it'd be really really neat if they add that to like the next x-com game but with the next x-com game i hope there's like a lot more customization like in between yeah that was that was the one thing like the base building stuff i i really like i hope they never get rid of that like um just just that i i i like the the whole sort of like you get back from a mission and you have a bit of downtime you get a couple of things built or in motion um to like fit into like your overall strategy or whatever you customize some of your

guys like i used to like to do this thing where like if you're a rookie you weren't allowed to have a cigarette hanging out of your mouth but then when you got promoted all of a sudden you were on the cigarette team but then when you were like ultra promoted you got promoted to like cigar squad and stuff like yeah just little things like that you know like i i like that kind of stuff so i hope there's like a lot of that too but we'll see but i think i think for for eight quid you can't go wrong honestly it's exactly yeah great man that's a good hot tips well thanks guys that was trifles this week guys are all safe out there yeah um looking after yourselves looking after each, eating lots of Maltesers and stuff.
