Hi, this is Rachel McElroy. Hello, this is Griffin McElroy. And this is Wonderful. Welcome to our program. Yeah. Thanks for dialing in. Thanks for tuning in to it. For dialing in. Thanks for tuning into it. For dialing in.

Put on your seatbelt and... Put on that seatbelt. Don't touch that dial. It does have jam on it. And we're here to hit you with all the classic R&B hits from the 1990s. Because this is the Super Bowl Halftime Show. This is a wonderful show. We talk about things we like.

Things that are good. Things that we are into, things that will nourish you. Ooh. Your soul. What if we got like really sort of spiritual this episode and we talked a lot about soul nourishment? That would sound very natural for us.

I bet I could pull that off. You think? Yes that off you think yes do you think you could no give me a piece of that describe like uh i don't know when you maybe you take like a hot spring bath with a sort of like you know there's special oils that you're anointed with and then you talk about what that does to sort of your, your inner self. I thought you wanted me to describe taking a bath. I want you to goop it. No,

just like goop it up. Like goop, goop me. Uh, goop me, goop me, goop me, daddy.

Uh, the best thing about this, uh, experience is that you will, uh, I mean, of course, wash away the toxins. Yes. I hate those things. Just enliven your circulation. This feels very physiological.

I want something a little bit more. Oh, oh, oh. In the ether, you know? And remember your spirit yeah you i don't think you can hang no with me and gwenny um you have any small wonders though oh i'm gonna say a little outlet covers yeah you know like i don't know who thought of that but somebody was like hey these kids keep getting electrocuted if only there was something we could put on yeah and they put the little plastic guys in there and it's like haha baby you can't get in there i will say when one of those comes out of the outlet and it's just

sitting on the floor it is essentially like a ninja caltrop um that is it's also kind of a choking hazard in itself yeah so hmm double-ed. Double-edged sword, I would say. Outlook covers. Some of them are harder to remove than others, though. That is also why. If you're willing to upgrade, I think you can get a real good product. A real... One with some thick prongs.

Yeah, exactly. Gotta have thick prongs. Speaking of thick prongs. I'm gonna say Love is Blind is back. Yeah. That was our Valentine's evening celebration. Yeah. Was, Love is Blind is back. Yeah. That was our Valentine's evening celebration was watching Love is Blind. This is a dating reality show, which as you know, Rachel and I are, at this point, I would say sort of the scholars of. We can't get enough.

And I honestly can't explain it other than to say that it always makes me and Griffin turn to turn to each other and be so grateful for our our love yeah and our time together love is blind hits so right because this is a show where i think it's like 10 men and 10 women and at the beginning of the show they get in sort of uh these connected pods with these thick layers of frosted glass between them so you can't see the other person they're like little rooms there's like a couch and like a plant yeah i say pod that makes it sound like you climb into some sort of it looks back to tank that uh no yeah it's just and they're they're able to like bring like a glass of wine in from like a shared golden chalice common area and so it just it seems very like fun and flirty so all you do is you talk right and you don't see the other person it is the dating equivalent of the voice and you see i feel like more than any other reality show like you see people getting excited about making romantic connections in a way that feels like for a

netflix dating reality show it's never going to be the classiest affair but this is a show that i feel like when you see people like get excited about having a connection with the person on the other side of the glass like it feels

very real and that is that is enough to sort of melt my little icy cold heart I would not describe my heart as that

no not at all in any way but yeah it's good and hit at the same time you get the US version and Love is blind japan which we've not dipped into we haven't watched that yet i would love to watch that i've been

learning japanese for like the third time uh and it's been going very well this time and like the first thing you learn and i'm sure this is true of most languages is like greetings and introducing yourself and so i watched the first episode of Terrace House Boys and Girls in the City, the first Tokyo edition. I was able to kind of follow along because that's all it is. It's like, hello, I'm 19 years old.

I am a university student. I was like, yeah, baby. So I wonder if I could do that as well with that. Who goes first this week? Me. You. Yeah. You.

That was really good. Thanks thanks what do you got uh so again this is kind of a tangent off of things we have already discussed but i am going to say a different kind of balloon no okay although man our kids have been playing with balloons lately and it's just a reminder like best toy best toy ever um no my my wonderful thing is the noble hairstylist yes so you have talked about getting a haircut yes and i will not say the name of my hairstylist because i she gets booked up very quickly so sorry um but i i wanted to talk specifically about the person doing the haircutting. Yeah. Because it is an essential service, I would say, in some ways, and one that has evolved over time. Yeah.

It's a very fascinating thing for me. I remember I had a hairstylist, like the first one I had when I moved to Austin, that just every time she my hair I just picked her brain about because she was like trying to get some sort of like new license or something I was like what goes how do you learn to cut hair that's fucking wild to me yeah well I can talk I can talk a little bit about that later in the episode um I will say this has come to me because when I moved to Austin I got a recommendation for a hairstylist who then moved but gave me a recommendation for somebody else. And I was with that person through meeting Griffin, through our marriage, through having Henry. And then she moved. Right.

And gave me kind of a general, anybody here is good. And I have yet to find somebody to replace her. Yeah. I'm trying somebody out on Friday. I'm very excited for you. I'm optimistic. Yeah. But yeah, this is a person who really learns your hair, and if you've got kind of unusual hair, which I don't know what makes hair unusual, but I feel like I have unusual hair, and you want somebody to really learn the shape and the motion and the patterns. And it becomes a really valuable thing.

Yeah. So I would love – I've never had it. But I bet it would be dope to have someone touch my head all over and be like – Oh, see, I don't like that so much. Yeah, you don't like – There's a lot of touching. Physical touch is your hate language. There was an opposite end to this picture.

Right, yes. My love language is, I think, words of... Affirmation. Affirmation. And my hate language is touch. Well, it could just be whatever ranks last in your love languages is just like, ugh, your yuck language. So hair salons, I mean, if you think think about it this was something that was really only accessible to the very wealthy yeah like they would have people come to their house and it

would be a variety of people and it would take hours and these very like elaborate like huge hairstyles it wasn't really until um the late 1800s that it started to become kind of accessible to other people, particularly in this country. There was a kind of self-made entrepreneur named Martha Matilda Harper, who opened the first public salon and then opened like a method shop that started kind of teaching other people how to do it. Because before that, it was like they had to come to your house. This was kind of the first time it was like, hey, here's a spot where you can go and getting a haircut is like one of the four reasons i have to leave our house so it would be tragic if i didn't have access to that um another example is sarah brie love walker who was born in 1867 to recently freed slaves

she worked for years as a washerwoman in St. Louis. And then at the 1904 World's Fair, which as you know, was in St. Louis. Right, of course. She met Annie Malone, who sold her own shampoos and hair irons. And they kind of worked together to build their businesses and became one of the largest employers of black women in the United States. That kicks ass. So they had like a whole sort of hair operation out of St. Louis? They split off.

So at some point, Sarah Walker split off and began selling her own hair products. But they kind of helped each other out to get started. That's awesome. That's incredible. And Walker reached $250,000 in sales, which is the equivalent of more than $6 million by today's standards. Yes. So hair salons became really kind of necessary if people wanted to keep up with trends at the beginning of World War I, which is when the bob came about. Like, you can't really do that yourself.

I mean, you could, I guess, but it'd be challenging. It would be rough. For anybody that's tried to cut their own hair, which is definitely me, the back, the back of the hair. You can't see it so good. No, you can kind of hold it up above your head in front of the mirror, but you don't really know what's going on. It's good fun for everyone else though.

I will never forget, I won't name names but a friend of ours cut his own hair and just like the back looks so wild. It was so funny. It was so funny because we all saw the front and we thought like, oh, hey, good work. This was in the Zoom era, you know, where like nobody was really getting a haircut super easily.

And then he turned around and the back of his head just looked like a bar graph like we all just started laughing so fun so fun um also world war ii women started entering the workforce so there was this idea of like i gotta i gotta look chic you know professional uh and then in the 50s and 60s that's when hair coloring kind of took off and so you you i mean you basically there was a situation created where you had to go to somebody who had the skills yeah you know if you really wanted to look like on trend and then there's rachel from friends that was yeah and then the rachel of course of course uh i'm sure you have a note about that in there already,

just as Rachel from France did some stuff. But I do have a note about the perm, which is another thing. These are really kind of dangerous chemicals. You got to go to somebody who knows how to operate them. I don't know what a perm is. I know it means permanent. It stands for permanent, yes? And it's supposed to be like a permanent curl?

I mean, there's different styles, but kind of the traditional thing is that you put your hair in the curlers, you put these chemicals on it, and then your hair just kind of holds that shape for a temporary but somewhat long period of time. You shouldn't call it a perm then. Well, it's more permanent than a lot of things. I guess that's true. Nothing gold can stay pony boy uh so i wanted to talk about the state license particularly in texas yes so this very state to state in texas uh you have to complete 900 hours uh at a you know a school like a like an evada institute you know like a place where they, where they train you. And then, um, when

you reach that 900 hours, uh, you can take the written licensing exam. And then there's also a practical exam where you actually have to like do stuff. Yeah. Uh, so I wanted to talk a little bit about the stuff you have to do. Okay. Uh, for anybody who thinks like, oh, I could just walk in, I could just walk in and nail this. Like, I don't, I think anybody who would like oh i could just walk in i could just walk in and nail this like i don't think anybody who would think that is a is filled with a true pretty horrific amount of hubris so you have to you have to know the nails this is like an operator license okay so so this is like covers a variety of things okay um you have to know safety criteria uh you have to be prepared for a blood exposure incident

which makes sense like if you're doing some cutting and things get weird uh an eyelash strip application so if somebody wants like the eyelashes you know this can't be a thing though where it's like i just cut hair like i don't do an eyelash this i'm just looking at the operator license which kind of of covers a variety of things. You can get real specific, like a manicurist or whatever, but this is the license that'll take you all over the city. Sure. The facial, all of this has safety criteria with it too.

Do you dispose of the material appropriately? Do you keep your kit sanitary? Do you avoid cross-contamination? Every single one of these, you also have to do that. Is Barbasol potable? appropriately do you keep your kit sanitary do you avoid cross-contamination like every single one of these you also have to do that um is barbasol potable no don't even joke about no stop it stop it don't do that we'll get you faded as hell no don't drink don't do the barbasol like that uh okay so and then let me give you an example there's there is a waxing service uh and each of these is timed.

So with the waxing service, you have 14 minutes to complete. Whoa. You will be informed when you have seven minutes remaining. Wait, I don't want there to be, I don't want someone to ever race through my waxing.

So I have gone to the Aveda Institute back in my earlier days because it is a more affordable option if you want a service. I thought you meant to train. No. Okay. No. And, and so students will perform services on you and they will take a long time. Okay. Like it, it will usually be a good quality service because they have a professional supervise them, but they will really take their time. So that's how they get the practice is with like budget cut.

Okay. I thought they did like corpse haircuts or something. There's also like a head. You can buy like a head that will like a mannequin head. Oh, okay. I'm just saying the hair keeps growing, you know? Okay. So this is the haircut.

The haircut, you have 42 minutes and you have to prepare the mannequin for service perform a scalp analysis use a razor uh with a guard during the haircut use the shears uh blend the haircut and uh remove hair off the workstation all in 42 minutes and also do the safety criteria wow uh you have to do a perm, blow drying, foil highlights, a relaxer. And then at the end of the examination, you have to do a disinfection. So that's a lot of stuff. Yeah, that's quite a bit.

That's like a whole day of stuff that you have to do. You also, like, there's all these rules around what can be labeled and what can't when you show up. It's a big deal. And so, yeah, I just I think this is this is a profession that is growing constantly. It's like one of those jobs that is projected to grow. I think the majority of people do it part time from what I saw just because it what I saw just because it's an exhausting profession for one. Also, if you're in it for yourself, which a lot of people are so they don't have to pay salon rental fees of like their little booth space, it allows you the flexibility to do something else. So it's a challenging profession.

Absolutely. And it requires a lot of hustle and a lot of experience. And I'm hopeful that I can find my perfect match. You'll get there. Soon. Let's make a reality show out of it. We'll call it Rachel's Special Hair. Call it Hair is Blind.

Oh, that's fun. You stick your head through a wall. What? And the person cuts it, and then you pull your hair back, and you say... Like a barbershop glory hole? Jesus. Maybe that's a better name for the show. Barbershop glory hole?

Yeah, that one would definitely pass sort of fcc standards or is it which one does cares about when you name a show barbershop glory hole i don't know hey can i steal your way yes got a couple of brom boom bams here and this first fucking one is for Messica. Okay. And it's from Dr. Amanda, who says, To my dearest Hermana Messica, thank you for introducing me to the McElroys and a bunch of other things in life. I am so proud of you for moving to Chicago and gaining independence. You'll be great at whatever it is that you do. Doola-ing or project managing babies.

Happy belated birthday or something. Your favoritest and coolest sibling, Dr. Amanda. We're about two months late on this particular well wish, but... I would love somebody to project manage our baby. Oh boy, that would be so nice. Doola-ing is kind of like project managing the baby in the sort of pre-pro phase. Yeah, exactly. Setting the baby in the sort of pre-pro phase. Yeah, exactly. Setting the baby up for success. Setting the baby up for success when you're scrumming that little guy, you know?

What's yours? It's a project management thing. Yeah, I know, but it seems like a graphic term. Scrumming? Yeah. It just makes me think of how they talk about food on Great British Bake Off. Something is scrummy. Yeah. That makes me uncomfortable, actually. What do you got? This next message is for Adam Suchuk, and it is from Melissa Walischek.

Happy 10-year anniversary, Adam. I'm so lucky to have you in my life, and I can't wait to get married. Love you. Do you think Adam knew they were going to get married before this message was sent? Whoa, that would be such a power play. That would be an outrageous power play. We've had proposals on, I don't know if we've had one on this show before, probably. We have, yeah. But we've never had one that's just sort of like a

declarative proposal. And I can't wait for that new car you're giving me for Valentine's Day. Oh, boy. I'm sorry I didn't get you a new car for Valentine's Day, honey. That's okay. Or did I? Look outside. It's a Bugabe.

Hi, I'm Biz. And I'm Teresa. And we're the hosts of One Bad Mother, a podcast about parenting. Parenting is hard, and we have no advice. But we do see you doing it. Honk if you like to do it. Didn't we have a bumper sticker a while back that was like, honk if you did it? That's what it was. I think it, honk if you did it. That's what it was.

I think it was honk if you're doing it. Why did we not ever make them? We did make them. I think they're still in the MaxFun store. Honk, honk, you're doing it. Thanks, Biz. So are you. Each week, we'll be here to remind you that you're doing a good job.

You can find us on MaximumFun.org. Honk, honk. Toot, toot. I listen to Bullseye because Jesse always has really good questions. What did John Malkovich wear when he was 20? I don't know how to describe it. There's always that moment where Jesse asks a question that the person he's interviewing has not thought of before.

I don't think anyone's ever said that to me or acknowledged that to me, and that is so real. Bullseye, interviews with creators you love and creators you need to know. From MaximumFun.org and NPR. Can I do mine? Yes. Sports food. Food for sports.

The food you eat when sports are happening somewhere. Sports food. The food at the sports. Put some chili cheese and go on doing a touchdown sports food sports food i like this it is i adore the fact that we have this whole subcategory of food that is largely what we eat when sports are happening either in front of us or through some sort of remote broadcast. Yeah. I was watching the game with Griffin and after the halftime show, Griffin was like,

do you want to continue watching? And I think I did partially because I wanted to keep eating chips. Yeah. And it's not even, I don't even want to get into like, is it acceptable or not to eat these foods? Cause that goes down some alleys that I'm not interested in exploring. But I will say there are lots of foods that I do not sort of reach for or think about eating unless it's sports time. sports time and there's there's and and that mental connection to me is undeniable and yet if i tried to poke a hole in it it would instantly rupture and yeah griffin griffin and i enjoy a

wing i would say griffin more than me but we will never eat them unless sports is involved but like why though this is this is why i wanted to talk about this is like there have been lots of studies about like idle television watching or like getting like particularly invested in some television show, which happens, of course, during sports when you're like invested in the team and sort of just idle snacking. Right. Like you you just do one sort of mindlessly while doing the other. Right. Like you you just do one sort of mindlessly while doing the other. And there's also been studies about like when watching sports, if your team is losing, how that affects like your your rate of consumption. Right. But what I can't find anything on is why we eat fucking buffalo wings and nachos and hot dogs when it's sports time. I mean, there's a lot of reasons that i can think of just off the top like what let's hear them well sports food is usually food that like you don't need like a plate and a knife and a fork to eat okay okay interesting uh it's also not it's not food that

you can eat in large quantities uh typically because uh it makes your body feel bad. It makes you feel bad. It's feel bad food, yeah. Not in any kind of like weird guilt way, but if I eat nachos and buffalo wings, that's gonna be the rest, like for 72 hours. Yeah, if I had a dinner plate full of wings, I think it would hurt my body. Made some dope wings for this year's big game, by the way, with some, what was it, like cashew-based buffalo sauce? And like cashew and avocado oil.

We got it at Costco. Yes. It's very good. And yeah, I'm always looking out for the newest, hottest dairy-free product. Yeah. And I liked this one. Yeah. God, I love buffalo wings so much.

yeah uh and i liked this one yeah god i love buffalo wings so much um it's just like if you can melt cheese over it right nachos fries uh potato skins i started to like write this stuff out and i realized that i am basically describing the appetizer section of the applebee's menu yes which is like i get applebee's i don't think of as like a sports bar i mean they always have the sports television i guess most places like that do they they have the tv up with the with the big game did you i feel like this is the 15th time we talked about this on the show but were you a did you frequent bw3s or buffalo wild wings and weck there was not one that i knew of okay in my neighborhood growing up it wasn't until until I hit my college town that I became aware. And the very first time I went, they were doing some kind of karaoke night.

And I was like, I'm never coming here again. That's wild. I don't want that at my BW3. I went there all the time. It was actually tough to get into our BW3s. Because we were always like, Huntington always had some sort of sports interest happening, especially if there was a Marshall game on. Yeah. And from what Justin has mentioned, like new restaurants are like a huge hit in Huntington.

Well, that conversation is different from when I was in college and, you know, there were like three buildings that restaurants would just cycle in and out of as opposed to today when there's like lots of great restaurants and new ones open up, you know, pretty frequently. But it's just like, there's, there's foods that fall well outside of the traditional food pyramid. Like I don't usually eat jalapeno poppers for nourishment.

Yeah. Like I don't usually make a meal out of it. I mean, one might say movie snacks kind of fall in that same category. Yeah, I don't usually eat goobers. I mean, I don't really eat goobers so much anymore anyway. Also a waffle fry. A waffle fry is something that you typically like find in like a sports setting, but maybe

not like if you went to just a regular sit down restaurant. Yeah. I mean, Chick-fil-A does waffle fries, right? But I haven't. Yeah, it's been a while that forbidden nectar has not crossed twixt my lips in uh over a decade i would say um i googled super bowl recipes and i just want to read off some very real recipes i found on uh delish the website okay uh mac and cheese pizza bites yeah i want you to tell me which one of these

has the best name when i get to the end of the list okay mac and cheese pizza bites. I want you to tell me which one of these has the best name when I get to the end of the list, okay? Mac and cheese pizza bites. I'm having trouble figuring out what the structural integrity of that would be. Okay, well then tell me how this hits you. Pepperoni football. Pepperoni football. That's a really good one. That's a really good one.

Trash can nachos, of course. We've all eaten those. Big Mac potato skins. Yeah. Okay. I can figure that out. Yeah, I can picture that. one this is a really good one trash can nachos like of course yes we've all eaten those uh big mac potato skins yeah okay i can figure that out yeah i can get around salsa verde football bomb what's wrong i always think it's strange when people feel comfortable putting the word bomb in a food item yeah uh cheesy sausage bombs is another one There's a suggestion that it will go down your throat so fast that it will explode in your stomach. Interesting. That's not how it hits me.

I think of it more as like a goosh situation. Like it's just going to like fall apart as soon as you. No, I think it like at the trajectory, like the speed at which it travels. That's interesting. Chili cheese dog cups. Those four words. Your emphasis on that phrase was questionable. You say it then. Chili cheese dog cups. Those four words. I think your emphasis on that phrase was questionable. You say it then.

Chili cheese dog cups. Chili cheese dog cups. Not chili cheese dog cups. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. You're right. What's a dog cup? This is a tiny cup for dogs and we filled it with chili cheese. And then finally, beef tachos.

Those are nachos, but with tater tots. Oh, okay. And beef, and I guess cheese up on there, too. I think pepperoni football is my favorite. Pepperoni football is so simple. That was like sort of a cheese ball that was covered in pepperonis, but it was in the shape of a football. It's also the sequel to licorice pizza.

That was really good. Once you also get into the world of stadium foods, you just move so far away from the light of God. You can't even see it anymore. I have really actually, so our dear friend and our lifesaver, Amanda, friend of the show, important to the McElroy empire. Right. Put up a photo of these like pretzel rolls that she made for her celebration. And all I have wanted since is a soft pretzels. And that's like a, that's a sports food. Yeah.

We could probably find some. I mean, yeah, there are establishments here in which you can buy one uh but but the sports and the pretzel that's a great combination undeniable i forget the venue but there's one place uh that i found one uh stadium that does a three pound pretzel that's like one of their like stunt stunt sport food normally when you talk about an extreme food I have a look of disgust on my face but when you said that my eyes got so big

and happy what about at the at Citi Field where the Mets play they got the pastraccios and they're just having

I feel like you can add achos to the end of a lot of stuff and have it try to like pass muster is it like nachos with meat on it? it's nachos with pastrami on it.

Okay, that's what I'm picturing. Pastrachos. There's the beast at the Milwaukee Brewers Miller Park, which is a ballpark frank shoved into a bratwurst. Shoved? Yeah. Forced into a bratwurst, wrapped in bacon, and put on a pretzel roll.

All right. Oh, man. That's a lot of stuff you got going on there. And like, which brings me back to my central thesis, which is why? Why? There's no, I'm not complaining, right? And I'm not judging. Like, I love sports food.

Sports food is, whenever it is is time I look forward to the Super Bowl food more than I look forward to the game or commercials or or anything because it's like I love those foods yeah I mean whenever I hear about somebody going to a game of any kind my brain immediately goes to like oh they're gonna get to eat sports food yeah for me it was simply anytime we went to the Great American Ballpark or whatever the Reds ball field used to be called, they had bratwurst that was the most delicious bratwurst I'd ever tasted with some like Golden's like brown mustard. Like I would dream about that.

And so anytime we would be going to a Reds game, I'd be like, yeah, whatever, whatever, baseball. But the bratwurst at that stadium is at that ball field is like next level sometimes they would put skyline chili on it and that's that's not that's not the journey that's not my particular journey but i support whoever's decision goes for that you know yeah i don't think i mean so most of my sports attending was done when i was a very young person so i can't think of like a particular dish that was unique to any of the sports places that i went yeah but generally like any of it any of it is phenomenal to me i would say also at the

great american ballpark they do uh frito pie with skyline chili served out of a tiny reds helmet i like Oh, that's nice. The novelty helmet, get the ice cream in there too. It's just, this is not a segment where I'm praising any one particular food. It's just the idea of sports food is so exciting to me and so pure and inexplicable.

It is this, this, this sort of like cultural touchstone that for the life of me, I cannot find the origin point for. But it delights me to no end that it exists. Yeah. No, I think about that sometimes when we are trying to come up with dinner ideas. I think, we could just make wings. We could have sports food. But it feels like a celebratory food. It does, yeah. It feels like, well, what are we celebrating?

Why would we have it today? Yeah. Hey, I want to thank Bowen and Augustus for these for a theme song, Money Won't Pay. You can find a link to that in the episode description. And I want to thank Maximum Fun for having us on the network. Go to MaximumFun.org. Check out all the great shows that they have on MaximumFun.org.
