Episode Date: February 2, 2023

On this epsiode we talk Tom Brady, Food News, Comedian Alfred Robles, Movie Chat & More!

What's new? What's new with Metis? What's up everybody and welcome to another edition of What's New Pod. I'm Metis. I'm joined by Borch, a.k.a. Brett. He's an audio expert and syndication expert with the Woody Show Morning Show. You can hear across the United States and around the world on AFN. He is also joined by his ex-assistant, Eric, who works for the NFL Podcasting Network. What is up, Eric? He is joining us live from Downey, California. And joining us from Whittier, California,

that'd be Heavy T, a.k.a. Tyler, who is from the Better Sports Network. What is up, Tyler? How you doing? Let's start off with the NFL recap, okay? So, are you excited for the Super Bowl, yes or no? I mean, I can't be too excited because of who's in it, but I'm excited some of the karma caught up to the Bengals and for running their mouth.

Now, Eric, I think you would be rooting for the Eagles because I feel like the Eagles have the same party vibe as the Bills. Because if you look at the streets of Philadelphia and how wild and crazy people get, I would think that you would support that. I mean, yeah, it's pick your poison. I think I went over this last week. Like the worst, best of the worst case scenarios would have been the San Francisco winning just because, you know, it's like whatever.

They're kind of just off in their own world. But I know too many Philly people, and Philly people like to be loud about winning. Oh, for sure. I'm going to be in Philly in the next couple days. Just a sea of jerseys just everywhere all right so we are coming off the retirement of tom brady what's your reaction to that thank christ that that man is out of my life i hate him so much with every fiber of my being i'm so glad

now is it just because of that one super bowl or you're just tired of here because of that one super bowl come on man that is like dude freaking oh i'm Super Bowl or you're just tired of hearing? Of course it's because of that one Super Bowl. Come on, man. Is that it? Like, dude, freaking, oh, I'm trying really hard not to just lay a bunch of F-bombs right here. Atlanta just blows a 25-point lead to this mother effer over here. Thinks he's the greatest thing on God's earth. Hates his whole family.

Does it just to come back for another year. And, of course, his last three years, where is he? Oh, he's in the Falcons division. Dude, just get the hell out of my life, dude. Just go somewhere else. Sounds like Atlanta's the problem in all that. Yeah. Honestly, dude, just go die in a hole.

Okay? Nobody wants you. Nobody cares about you. Blame Tom Brady for giving up the 28-3 lead. It's definitely his fault that Atlanta couldn't run the ball. It was his fault. It wasn't Matt Ryan's fault. Well, do you know what? I got to

relive that loss through the movie 80 for Brady. I'm logging out. Bye. No, I texted you guys after I saw it. I was like, hey guys, it was surprisingly good. And then immediately I got hate in the group chat for it. Now you wouldn't go see this at all.

Or you wouldn't even stream it at all. Why? No. I would never watch a second. It's pointless. I don't need to watch a bunch of old broads go. I don't even know the concept. I know it's based around Tyler's favorite Super Bowl, but I don't even know the concept of it. I don't need to watch these old ladies on it.

Go to hell, Eric. All right. It's Golden Girls and football or something. I don't get it. I don't know. Okay. Here's the thing. Okay.

There was a real life group of old ladies that that loved Tom Brady and they loved the Patriots. And you would see them here and there around that time. And then they made a whole movie about it. Now, the old ladies actually never went to the Super Bowl, but they got highlighted a lot in the sports recaps. And then, again, so it inspired the movie. Now, I thought the movie was pretty fun. Okay? Now, it had literature in it, it had

dancing, it had drug use, it had sex, and it had football. You guys are against all that stuff? 80-year-old women involved with it, yes, I am. You guys are super salty this morning about everything. I'm not salty, I could care less. I've gone over my Tom Brady hate

a while ago. I just don't want to watch a bunch of old ladies for an hour and a half on my tv it was fun and okay tyler how about this word for it how about this not a spoiler because he was already in the trailer but guy fieri was in a large part of the movie that's random good for him flavor town can go to hell jeez even flavor town can go to hell okay flavor town go Flavortown can go to hell. Okay. Flavortown can go to hell. He's dead to me for at least the next five minutes.

Okay. How about this? We'll just skip over everything because I'm getting nothing out of you guys today. How about this? Food news. You guys in for some food news? That might lift my spirit. All right.

Food news. Food news. Papa John's new crispy parm pizza has cheese baked right into the crust. All in or all out? Yes. All in. Didn't they already do this? Where the cheese is...

No, not like they put cheese in the edge of the crust. Not soft crust. This is all of the crust. Oh, so it's like a different layer, a middle layer almost? The cheese infused into the crust itself. That's a lot of cheese dude i'm down i love cheese why is it not here already i feel like at some point though it's like there's just a little too much cheese like i've done the extra cheese on pizza sometimes and i'm like okay i

probably didn't need to do that i should probably like stop drinking too at the same time yeah that's usually when it happens it's like it'll be a drunk purchase and then i'll wake up the next morning like dude never do that again yeah Yeah. Probably tastes delicious though. Oh yeah. Speaking of delicious, just real quick shout out. I went to Cielo, which is the restaurant on top of Morongo Casino Resort. And it was delicious. I had the filet mignon. I had some macaroni and cheese. And of course I missed out on the delicious butter cake because I had to go to the show. The Pop 2000 tour that I've been talking about. That show was awesome.

Shout out to Mark McGrath and Chris Kirkpatrick. But getting back to the food news, are you guys all in or all out on Smashburger? You know, I've had it once and it was okay now the one time i had it was years ago and i'm trying to think from where i currently am now i honestly don't know where the nearest location is i'd have to look it up it's the one that's all right at la live still there that's the only one i've ever been to and it was hot garbage and i'd never been back yeah i think that was the one by uh the toms, right? Yeah, is that not there anymore? I want to say it's there. I don't know

if I've ever actually been to Smashburger. Really? But I mean, it was... South Figueroa Street, so I'm assuming that's LA Live. Yeah, so it's still there. Oh, okay. It's just I was one and done on it. That's why. That's just a void, a black space now in LA Live to you because you don't like it, so you just walk by

and you don't even realize it's there. It like an invisible cloak now right but the toms watch party place whatever whatever toms did to itself speaking about restaurants in that area with the like 100 screens that they put into it i absolutely love that place now it used to be called toms urban but i think it's called toms watch Party maybe or something like that I don't know and they're doing the same thing actually with the Tom's in Las Vegas they're upgrading it to have it just like screens on screens on screen so you can watch like every sports game yeah Tom's Watch Bar Watch Bar that's what it is dope okay okay it's super legit all right the reason I brought up Smash Smashburger because there's some plant-based jackfruit thing, burger. But Bort had to walk out of the room because we're preparing for our Philly visit.

So that was a waste of time. Next up, how about this? European food company Belgian Boys is bringing the viral TikTok sensation to life with the mini edition pancake cereal. Let me tell you this. This Belgian Boys mini pancake thing is absolutely delicious. I've had it numerous times. What I do is I put it in a bowl, these little pancakes. I take some Nutella, put it on the top, and then put some fruit on top. It is legit. I don't know about in cereal form where I'm covering in milk. I don't know if I'm in on that, but I'm telling you, Belgian boys itself, super legit. But here's something that I know, Eric, you are a pro at. It is Starbucks. And now Starbucks Japan has put together something

for Valentine's Day. It's the Frappuccino luxury French French Cake. Now, it looks just like a chocolate explosion. And I want to ask you, since we're like in between times of holidays here in America, what is your go-to with Starbucks? So at the moment, I'm just back to my, you know, just generic black cold brew. I was telling you guys I was doing some of the foam. I've been really into the foam. That's what I go into lately is to get some sweet cream foam on top of it. If I'm feeling a little extra basic,

I guess you could say. Oh, actually, what I've done recently is I've been adding espresso, which is probably a little cracked out if you think about it. I do ice cold brew, black, nothing added, and then a shot of espresso. If I'm really, I had a late night night before and I got to go to work or something, double espresso. That'll get you through the day. Nice. A little tweaker action going, man. You get up, trust me.

My thing was cold brew nitro with sweet cream forever. And then I think I just got kind of burnt out on it. And a lot of Starbucks I go to is like, oh, our nitro machine's not working. It's not working. And then I just switched back to my love, which I'm sure is not good for me, is the peppermint mocha. Peppermint mocha. Oh, my God.

It's so good. And so what I do is to try to do portion control. I just get a smaller cup instead of like a gigantic size, which I really want. When I first started doing Starbucks, it was the the venti sweet cream cold brews like when I was going when I doing the overnights at Fox and that would take me through the whole day and I was like oh you know I probably should be drinking a venti coffee every day so I just kind of yeah same thing I kind of downsized it to a grande with more kick and just the the cold brew espresso oh yeah Tyler do you even Starbucks or no I hate coffee I don't drink it i've tried now i've been told by several people like oh it's

an acquired taste i've tried it black i've tried it with tons of sugar coffee cream or whatever i've tried it with just a little bit i've tried it a bunch of different ways i don't like coffee it tastes gross are you making this or are you ordering it yeah i've done both like i've made it i've ordered it i just don't like it man I don't know what it is I just don't like the taste I finally got an espresso machine as a gift and I still haven't found like any flavors that I love yet I've been trying like 10 different ones I know that they make Starbucks pods for it I'm gonna have to try that next but do you know what i had just recently that i absolutely love is dutch bros coffee and their kicker cold brew is like one of my favorite things ever and unfortunately i didn't

i've looked it up the closest dutch bros to my house if i wanted on the regular is 65 miles away pick them socks yeah they're big in like uh they're big in like Arizona and stuff, I think. Yeah. Why are you skipping over, you know, like populated areas of California? You're like in the most random mass areas and they're not in big cities at all. And I think it would be like pandemonium. It would be like kind of like when a Racing Canes opens and, you know, there's just lines down the street.

I guarantee you of a Dutch bros opened somewhere in Los Angeles. It'll be just like a straight up mad house. I remember when we did the Morongo event about a year ago, last May, that was the time where I drove to the wrong airport, had that old episode. Right. So Randy picked me up from my house took me to morongo and he offered to drive me back i'm like all right cool it's one condition hey on the way back we're driving through eastvale we're stopping we're stopping by dutch bros okay cool first time

i had it yeah love the fact that they sell just the tops of muffins that's great oh muffin tops that they're legit called muffins up that's what's up dude yeah and the like lemon poppy seed is one of my favorites it's the it. It's the best part of the muffins, so just cut out all the other stuff, right? Thank you. It's basically a repeat of that old Seinfeld episode where it's just about the tops of the muffins, man. Nobody wants a stump. So one last piece of food news.

I have a comedian. I've been posting some clips on my Instagram with this guy. His name is Alfred Robles. I saw that. Yeah. I was looking at some of your reels you put out with him actually the other day. Dude,

the guy is freaking hilarious and we have the actual interview with him. Then I want to drop right now now board is going to jump back in the studio with me and do this interview but we're going to cover a bunch of stuff this guy freaking rules so if he pops up near city at a comedy spot go check him out he's super legit so give it up for alfred robles all right what was your first comedy gig? It was at a bar in El Monte. It was called Casa Latina. How'd that go? Horrible, bro.

The crazy part is I was wearing a shirt. It was a button shirt, and underneath the shirt on the bottom had flames. Yeah, yeah. And I was bombing, dude, and some cholo, a gangster, he yelled out, You're on fire, bro. I didn't have any comebacks. And I just told him, hey, thank you. Hey, thank you, bro.

I mean, did it make you nervous having somebody heckle you for the first time, it being your first gig? I get heckled every day, and it throws me off. I still can't get through the heckle it's bro it took me eight months i so i took like an eight month hiatus to go back up on stage the second time because of that oh wow yeah damn practicing in the shower or something like what do you do to like during that eight months like just cry just cry you just cry and go back to my daily. I used to do loss prevention. So I was doing loss prevention. Oh, damn.

For real? Oh, damn. Yeah. So I used to take it out on the shoplifter. I was going to say, you're working your routine on them. You're like, you're going to sit here and listen to this, okay? You're on fire, bro. And you're under arrest.

That's dope. All right. You have siblings, right? I have two older brothers. Now, do you do the thing where you go, my mom, my dad, even though you have the same mom and same dad? No, we're the opposite. We say, your mom. We say, your mom's calling you.

Your mom this and your mom that. But we never say, my mom. We always say, your mom. Because my wife and her brother, they do the thing like, oh, my mom said, my dad said. I'm like, you guys have the same mom and dad. Yeah. Why do you do that? Why do you think?

I don't know. We just say your mom. Hey, we don't have a dad. So I never had that problem. So it's always, hey, your mom this, your mom that, your mom that. We never say our mom or my mom. Yeah. Because I've asked this before and they're like, oh, because I want to be the favorite.

So this is my mom. And you're like, you know, we're maybe the opposite. We don't want to be the favorite. It's always your mom or something. You're like your mom's calling you. Your ass is on fire. So it's always been like that. It's always been your mom and your mom.

OK, hey, come pick up your mom or hey, take your mom to the store and stuff like that. Yeah. All right. Now, speaking of the store, have you been hit by the egg prices yet? The inflation? I have, bro. And it's crazy because I feel like my mom needs eggs every week, dude. I don't know what she's doing with those eggs, bro.

But every week, mijo, compra me huevos. I got just a bunch of them. So I don't know if she's slanging them. My mom goes to a senior citizen center. So I don't know if she's slanging them over there. Maybe she's more hip than me, bro. Damn, for real. She's a true narco.

All right. So I read online an old bio of yours. And the old bio, this is somebody talking about you. Okay. They said that you do dark comedy do you think that's true or not true or you think they're misrepresenting your your comedy yeah they did because i i've seen you do comedy i don't think it's dark comedy but i think that's like pretty pretty random i just want to see if you agree or disagree with that well i don't even

know what's dark like what do you think is dark? What's considered dark comedy? I mean, I used to talk about people. I talk about my cousins at a funeral and carrying the casket. Is that considered dark? That could be, depending on where you went with it. Yeah, I mean, like, it's usually called, like, a little twisted, a little demented added into it. Like, just like a little jab with it. Maybe.

But back then, I used to do this joke, and it was a true story. I was at the Laugh Factory, and some lady comes up to me, and she goes, you look like my son, but my son's dead. I used to do that joke. Yeah. Maybe that was dark for people. All right. I saw on social media that in January 2021 that you gave up sugar how is that even possible are you still

giving up sugar yes so you said january 21 that's what i saw on oh yeah i gave it up again this year then oh yes yeah because i just started this year again and i haven't i haven't had sugar so what are we the 31st has been a month without sugar i've had sugar-free stuff but i haven't had any sugar Not as far as fruit or nothing Damn, how's that possible? The longest I've gone was seven months But I also did 10 years without eating meat as well

Really? I was vegetarian I went pescatarian for one year And then after that I was like, I could do this So I went 10 years straight without eating meat Oh damn I'm a rare Mexican bro I didn't eat meat I have a cat food

dude yeah I went like a year without eating meat but then I stopped in Arizona and this is when the hardtack grill was in Arizona before I went to Vegas on Fremont street I was like man I can't pass up the hardtack grill.

So then that's when I broke. But I lost 100 pounds, bro. Damn. I was close. I was 300 pounds for a while, bro. Really? Yeah. Now, was it the meat that you lost all the way or was it the sugar?

I'm going to give the meat the credit because that was when I went meatless. So I just stopped eating meat and I lost 100 pounds, bro. And I was exercising as well, but I always say it was the meat. So I lost 100 pounds, bro. And I was exercising as well, but I always say it was the meat. So I lost 100 pounds, bro. And it's kind of hard going on the road with Gabriel not eating meat, bro, because that's all we do, dog. For real. And the reason why I started eating meat again,

I started getting these bald patches on the back of my head. Oh, yeah, yeah. It was because I wasn't having protein, bro, so I went back, dude. Yeah, because you got to take all those supplements, all the extra stuff. Come on, that's hard to remember every single day. Okay, because you got to take all the supplements, all the extra stuff. Come on. That's hard to remember every single day. OK, last time we were hanging out, we're hanging out with a bunch of friends. You noticed that I was wearing New Balances.

And then you started asking me all this stuff about New Balances. And I'll keep it real. The New Balances I was wearing was the very first pair I ever had. But then you started naming all these different models of New Balances. How did you become in love with the New Balance shoe and know so much about it? No, I'm in love with the 550 New Balance. There's the old school ones.

It was James Worthy used to wear them back in the 80s, bro. So they brought them back, and those are the ones. I have, like, the black ones, the white ones, the white and blue, the white and red. Those are my favorite New Balances. The 550. I should have brought them, but I'm trying to match my jacket with my J

so I didn't bro damn yeah but New Balance is cool man I feel like back in the well even like like two years ago

they didn't have cool styles for me I just felt like New Balance were cool because they fit good and they feel good but now they're they stepped it up on the looks bro

yeah you know yeah because I was like man you started rattling off all this stuff about New Balance. It started blowing my mind. Because then I looked around the room like, damn, all these fools are wearing New Balance. Was that your biggest surprise, though? Because you're like, I've seen this happen to you.

You hear New Balance and you're like, oh, I'm going to get some crap right now, man, from somebody. And just to have such skill come out of knowledge. I'm like, I'm not up on something. He should know something I don't. Yeah, for real. Teach me. Now, you're big into sports. If you look at your social media, your shout-out, baseball teams,

football teams, who's going to win the Super Bowl? The Eagles. The Eagles? Yes, for sure. The Eagles, for sure, bro. They're winning. Whoever wants to bet, just hit me up and let's do a side bet. Make sure you guys have – I don't like doing cash apps, so do Zell, bro.

You saw it already? Yeah, yeah. Oh, okay. How was it? I loved it. It was good. It was good. All these old ladies, they wanted to go to the Super Bowl.

The 2017 Super Bowl against, it was Patriots versus Atlanta. Oh, that's when they lost. No, but they won. They won. I'm sorry. They won. They came back like crazy. Yeah.

It was very inspirational. I saw Brady and I went to the Super Bowl in 2000 and I want to say 19, the Rams against New England in Atlanta. Yeah. How'd that go? We lost. New England won. Damn.

And then I went last year when we won. I say we, man, because I feel like I'm part of the team because I pay all that money to go. Yeah. And then I went last year and it was here at the SoFi and it was Rams against Cincinnati, bro. Yeah. So I've been to two Super Bowls, dude.

Oh, damn. How's the energy in the Super Bowl? The energy in LA was dope, bro. It was dope because it was all LA, you know? Yeah.

In Atlanta, it was kind of weird because they play, I guess the song that they play at their stadium, is it Gillette Stadium in New England?

They play, their song is Jump Around by House of Pain. Yeah. So everybody went crazy, Gillette Stadium in New England. Their song is Jump Around by House of Pain. Yeah. So everybody went crazy, dog. All the New England fans went crazy, and then they put California love,

asked comedian so does it do they does the improv like pay for your way to get there do they pull you up somewhere or do you have to fund that yourself and do you become a mathematician on how the money works that how much you're getting paid from the show and how much their travel costs like how does that work at all they give you a room so i get a room and i get i have a i have a um i already know as far as by how many tickets I sell how much money I'm going to get, bro. Okay. Yeah, so they don't pay for my travel. They just pay for the room and what I'm getting that night for the tickets.

Yes. Yeah, because I was wondering like comedians, they have to go from city to city. I go, who's covering that travel and putting up somewhere? So have you stayed in some interesting hotels? I stayed at this hotel in San Jose. It was ghetto as hell, bro. It was next door to a taqueria called Victoria or Taqueria Victoria where they're known for the sauces. Yeah, yeah.

La Victoria? Yeah, La Victoria. It was right there, bro. And it was ghetto as hell. People were knocking on my door, bro. or something. Yeah, yeah. La Victoria? Yeah, La Victoria. It was right there, bro. And it was ghetto. People were knocking on my door, bro. For real? Yeah, yeah. Damn.

People not even like the people that work there, just people knocking on my door. I'm like, what the f*** does he want, bro? You know? Damn. But that was the day where I got the hotel. They didn't put me up that day. Yeah. Because something had happened where it was a mix-up.

I was like, I'll just get the room. I looked up the cheapest room for some reason. I got the cheapest room. I got what I got, bro. It's close to that venue. It's close. I didn't even want to go to sleep anymore, bro. Oh, hell no.

I'm still in love. They're going to break into your room. You learn a lesson from that. You're like, okay, next time. Pay the extra $5 out. You go two steps up. So, okay. So I want to ask you, are you into the AI stuff?

Like the chat that will tell you anything and everything? No, I'm into the VR, but not the AI. The AI. Okay. So the AI, like you can ask it like hey write some jokes for me so i asked her like hey just randomly i said hey computer i go write a joke about pizza so this is what it spit out for me so maybe you can use this okay okay why did pizza refuse to go to the party um not enough pieces because it was feeling crusty

so no like yeah they're like ai is gonna be taking everybody's jobs man that's what they say what so how did you do it through the phone or or no you just go to uh it's called open ai and then you can ask it anything and everything and then it'll like hey write an article about me or like write a tweet for me and i'll just like instantly just write it it's it's crazy i was just wondering if you're keeping up on the a.s no no bro hey thank you bro he said it's gonna it's gonna change the game for everything it's gonna put a lot of people out of business wow but apparently not with that joke i think that we're safe, bro. That brings me to another thing. So how do you get inspired for your jokes?

Just observing things? Observing things. And I talk a lot about family stuff. My mom and my girlfriend now. And I just talk about that, bro. And growing up, you know what I mean? Yeah. So that's what I talk about the most now, man.

My mom's funny, bro. Her life is just crazy about the most now, man. It's my mom's funny, bro. Her life is just crazy and it's funny, dude. And it's just, it's like a full circle now. Cause my mom goes to a senior citizen center and sometimes I drop her off over there. And I just reminded me when my mom used to take me to school,

bro. Yeah. Totally reversed. Yeah. So, so, and then I'm her caretaker as well. So I got to take her to the doctor.

Oh, damn. That's crazy. Yeah. To think about. It's, so I got to take her to the doctor. Oh, damn. That's crazy to think about. It's kind of cool, man, but at first I didn't want to do it, bro.
