Speaker 1 Booyah.

Speaker 2 If you've watched American sports since the 90s, you've probably heard booyah invoked to emphasize a particularly sensational play, for instance, a nasty dunk.

Speaker 2 Boo Yah was an innovation of the late, great Stuart Scott, an ESPN Sports Center anchor who popularized the seemingly nonsense word, among other notable catchphrases, which included as cool as the other side of the pillow and just call him butter because he's on a roll.

Speaker 2 But prior to Scott introducing bouilla into the sports lexicon, the word had history in the American Midwest, where, perhaps only coincidentally, the influential sportscaster was born.

Speaker 2 In the mid-19th century, Belgian immigrants arrived in Wisconsin and brought with them a chicken stew that was given the name bouilla.

Speaker 2 While the exact etymology is unknown, speculation is it either came from the French word bouillon or the Walloon word bouillou, Walloon, a dying language that was more widely spoken by the working class in some regions of Belgium in previous centuries.

Speaker 2 150 years later, in 1997, a Belgian chain restaurant founded in the capital of Brussels made its way stateside, its French language name translating as the Daily Bread.

Speaker 2 And while Bouilla is not on the menu, it does boast an array of soups to complement its wheat-centric offerings, eaten in store at its signature communal table.

Speaker 2 With our focus just on hot liquid calories, will the daily bread's daily soups make us say boo-ya or boo-na?

Speaker 2 This week on Doughboys, we continue Croc Dough Burn Faest 2025, a supersized month of bisques, broths, stews, and stocks, and crocs with the soups of La Pin Cotidienne.

Speaker 2 Welcome to Doughboys, the podcast about chain restaurants. I'm Tiger Weiger, along with my co-host,

Speaker 2 Obi-Wanton Kadobe,

Speaker 2 the Spoon Man, Mike Mitchell.

Speaker 1 What?

Speaker 2 Obi-Wanton Kadobe.

Speaker 1 Wantons. Okay.

Speaker 2 The Spoon Man Mike Mitchell.

Speaker 1 Like Kedoba?

Speaker 2 No, it's not. I guess it could be Obi-Wanton Qdoba, but no, it's Kedobi.
Like Kedo, like doe. Kedo.
Kenobi, but a doe.

Speaker 1 All right, you understand Kedobi

Speaker 1 seeming strange.

Speaker 2 I agree. I think it's maybe Gilding the Lily.
I think Obi-Wanton Kenobi would probably be enough. Or Obi-Wan Kedobi.
We might be able, but just trying to do both. It's, you know, it's a hat on that.

Speaker 2 But

Speaker 2 I don't like it. You don't like it?

Speaker 1 No, it's fine.

Speaker 2 Alts. Obi-Wanton Kalachi.

Speaker 2 Okay. Obi-Wanton Kahogie.

Speaker 1 You know, I like that one.

Speaker 1 The hoagie one is the better one.

Speaker 2 The roaster dead, long live the roast Ben. Roasted bread.

Speaker 1 I thought I was saying one ton, and I was like, that's meaner, right?

Speaker 2 That would be mean. One ton would be mean and not and inaccurate.

Speaker 1 You're looking pretty slender these days. Hey, thank you, Wax.

Speaker 1 More like a wonton.

Speaker 1 You're more like a wonton. I am more like a wonton.

Speaker 1 Do I weigh closer to a wonton or a ton?

Speaker 1 I mean, a wonton. A ton is a thousand pounds.
Is that what it is?

Speaker 2 Yeah, a ton is

Speaker 1 2,000 pounds.

Speaker 2 Yeah, so definitely you're closer to a wonton, a single wonton, which is just probably a few ounces.

Speaker 1 It's actually 2,205 pounds. And how much does a wonton weigh? Like 80 or 90 pounds, I think.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's not bad.

Speaker 1 Let's see. A wonton weighs, goulei says 19 grams.
Okay. Okay, so I'm probably closer to that.

Speaker 1 I think so.

Speaker 2 So, like four or five loads?

Speaker 1 Sorry.

Speaker 1 Mitch Croc. Four or five loads.
Not for me, baby.

Speaker 2 Croc Doe Burn Pho S 2025 continues here in week two of our Super Month.

Speaker 1 I want to address something. People have been asking us about the Riyadh Comedy Festival.
Yes, right. And I just wanted to say, I want to just address this now.
We are on the wait list.

Speaker 1 If anyone drops out, we are going.

Speaker 1 We're ready. We're on deck.
We're on deck. We've agreed to it.

Speaker 2 So if any of the acts can't make it, we're going to be in the podcast tent. So if the, you know, two bears, one cave cancel, we'll go right in there.

Speaker 1 Yes. We have a flight.

Speaker 2 Our flight is booked.

Speaker 1 United 94. Yeah.

Speaker 1 To,

Speaker 1 I think there's a layover in D.C. or New York.

Speaker 2 We have a connection in a field in Pennsylvania.

Speaker 1 In Pennsylvania. Yeah.

Speaker 2 So we'll see how that goes.

Speaker 1 But yeah, we're flying United 94 over there.

Speaker 2 It should be a lot of fun. Really, I hope it happens, you know, fingers crossed.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Because it is awful. Would that be a payday? Mathematically, is United 94, is that that the sequel? Or would it be like a United 186? Is that the better?

Speaker 1 What's the better comedy math?

Speaker 2 I think 94 got the point. Okay, all right.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Anyway, we're excited.

Speaker 2 We're very excited. The payout makes our Patreon look like a pittance.
So we're definitely hoping this comes through. Yeah, we're going to make

Speaker 1 15 grand.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we're very excited. It's going to be great.
But whatever food there you judge has to to be five forks or else.

Speaker 2 We're giving it, we're 100% giving it five forks.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Oh, 100%.

Speaker 2 MBS will be our guest. That'll be very exciting.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 I have a lot to talk about. It was good to clear.
It's just good to clear that. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So, yeah, stay tuned.

Speaker 2 Stay tuned. Should be really exciting.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 We requested.

Speaker 2 We requested specifically one of us to be dismembered and dissolved in a barrel of acid.

Speaker 2 We just don't know who it is.

Speaker 1 But they did ask for the extra large bin. Yeah, they asked for a big one.
So it could could be either

Speaker 1 uh wages i've had a rough weekend yeah i've uh

Speaker 1 i had food poisoning dealing with the rumblies from a place that i get i shouldn't should i out the place actually i don't know i mean because yeah you can believe it but also it's like i did yeah do you have you know what's funny is i can just say beyond circumstantial evidence we bleeped this place before remember yeah we

Speaker 1 i don't know

Speaker 1 to bleep yourself now you have to bleep yourself. You outed them before.
That's why. Yes,

Speaker 1 I did out them before, but I got very bad food poisoning.

Speaker 2 This same place did give me diarrhea recently. Wait a minute.

Speaker 1 I think someone from work got food poisoning from then on Friday.

Speaker 1 Well,

Speaker 1 no, Thursday, on Thursday. Well, guess what? That is the exact same day that I ate my meal from there.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 I think maybe you should call them.

Speaker 1 Which one, which one? I think the Sunset Boulevard. Is that the one that we would have gone to?

Speaker 1 Probably not. Probably not, but still, I mean, that maybe there was an issue with.

Speaker 2 There might be something in their supply chain. They might have some bad spinach or something.
Who fucking knows?

Speaker 1 Well, we're giving more clues as to who it is.

Speaker 2 Any place could have spinach, Mitch. That's true.

Speaker 1 Bad paper towels.

Speaker 1 Well, that's a huge clue.

Speaker 2 Only if you know the past doughboys can.

Speaker 1 What's these freaks do?

Speaker 1 Let me tell you, I could have, it would have helped if I ate a paper towel.

Speaker 2 Hoped you had a paper towel on deck.

Speaker 1 Yeah, sopped up some of that.

Speaker 1 Let's just say it was

Speaker 1 quite liquid, I guess is what you would say.

Speaker 1 It was very, it was

Speaker 1 out of your butt or your mouth. Just butt.
I was very, I went in for a wardrobe fitting on the Warner Brothers law.

Speaker 2 And by the way, great question.

Speaker 1 You know,

Speaker 1 because

Speaker 1 I take a GLP-1 drug. I take Zeppbound.
And I woke up and I was like, oh, I feel kind of nauseous. But I was like, and it was like just a couple days after I took my shot.

Speaker 1 So I was like, sometimes that can happen. You don't feel great.

Speaker 1 And then I took a shower and I was like, oh man, I feel like really nauseous. And I laid down.

Speaker 1 And then I went to Warner Brothers to get a wardrobe fitting.

Speaker 1 And I almost fainted in the wardrobe fitting. And that's when I knew it was something bad.
And then I went home and

Speaker 1 Did they keep fitting you while you were pooping?

Speaker 1 I was not, I was not pooping in there. You know what? And this is so, because we've talked about this before because people, I'm like, I drink like like a Coke to settle my stomach.

Speaker 1 And people online are like,

Speaker 1 that's whatever. And

Speaker 1 she got me an ice cold Coke and it like changed my life. Did you request it? I was like,

Speaker 1 can I get a soda or something? Because I thought my blood sugar was maybe low. And she got me a Coke and it was like a game changer.

Speaker 1 Like it got me out of there without shitting my pants or throwing up, basically.

Speaker 2 And then I hopped right to it playing live action. You're 70 Sam.

Speaker 1 You know, I play pork, porky pig. He's being nice to me.

Speaker 1 I don't get it. F4 Warner Brothers.

Speaker 1 You're going to play Porky Pig?

Speaker 1 No, he's being an asshole. Okay.
Why did I say Porky Pig? No, I don't. Listen to this show.

Speaker 1 Well, we're still unfunny. We still don't make much sense.

Speaker 1 Okay, but I know there's a great bit about eating paper towels that I've missed. No, no, this is new.
This is new. It was for, we'll bleep this.
It was for.

Speaker 1 Oh, wow. Awesome.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, cool.
We'll bleep that.

Speaker 1 But I almost fainted and I went home and then the

Speaker 1 soup was on after that wag. I was, sorry.
I was

Speaker 1 out. Soup was out.

Speaker 1 Your birthday was yesterday and your theme for your party this Friday, which freaks can't go to because it will be over,

Speaker 1 is Pepto-Bismol, which it was IBS. IBS.

Speaker 1 There will be Pepto shots. There will be a bowl of Toms.

Speaker 1 Everyone is encouraged to wear brown and

Speaker 1 come with a stomachache. Wow.
Well,

Speaker 1 I'll be ahead of the game. But I think that it lasted for a good, I was nervous because it lasted for like four or five.

Speaker 1 This would be five days.

Speaker 1 And yesterday I had it

Speaker 1 and I emailed my doctor and he was like, it can be four or five days. It can just, that can is what can happen.
So I had a bad, a bad run of it, Wikes. But doing all right.

Speaker 1 We're back here and we got, well, Emma hit him with a drop. I was about to announce our guest.

Speaker 1 I heard the fucking craziest story I'm trying to remember where I heard this when you took a shit that you had to shit into

Speaker 1 toilet paper

Speaker 1 and then put that into

Speaker 1 I don't remember if this was a podcast or a TV show

Speaker 1 Did you see this interview? Wait, yes! He wraps his hand in toilet paper and he hovers over his hand over the toilet bowl. Every time he shits? Yeah, and then guides it into the bowl.

Speaker 1 They're on another podcast.

Speaker 1 I could have a turd into my hand and wrap it up like a mummy and have it held up.

Speaker 1 You know what? I feel like it was on Doughboys.

Speaker 2 Oh, you know it was.

Speaker 1 What?

Speaker 1 Was that Threedom? Yes.

Speaker 1 We love the Threedom crew. And that, was that your story was about the turd getting wrapped?

Speaker 2 No, this was a story from another

Speaker 2 podcaster, another that we were relaying secondhand if someone had heard it.

Speaker 1 Oh, that the podcaster. He, he, it was a guy who found out on a podcast.
He found out on a podcast that you're not supposed to

Speaker 1 catch your shit and guide it into the bowl.

Speaker 1 How is this not one of our listeners? It sounds like it could, yeah, it possibly could be.

Speaker 1 Are you all right over there?

Speaker 2 Just kind of the dregs of content creation is that we're relaying something that was on a different podcast, on our podcast.

Speaker 1 And then another podcast

Speaker 1 is talking about hey folks it's been a while since i've submitted a drop but i always love a good threedom doughboys crossover so here you go how about that cheers to the whole doe fan for another great pod year barry hey speaking of ben barry lamb it's been a while oh what's barry

Speaker 1 There's some guests who could not speak during.

Yes, that was that. We always just do, because I forgot that I have to do the drop before I announce you're here.

Speaker 2 Mingle, for a, a, a regular on the podcast, but it's been a little bit since you've been in you've been on the podcast and certainly since you've been in studio.

Speaker 2 It's, it has not happened since the pandemic. We're very, very happy that you're here.
Unfortunately, as we have relayed to you, and Mitch and I aren't happy about it either, we are on camera now.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 2 As such, it sucks. It's a bummer.
But as such, you requested a Doughboys hat for the record. Yes.
You were not wearing the Doughboys hat.

Speaker 1 No, you didn't give me one.

Speaker 2 Well, I offered you a hat, but you said the color was hidden.

Speaker 1 It was ugly.

Speaker 1 It was like the color of a pancake. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 1 It is the color.

Speaker 2 It is our mustard-colored hat, which I do like, but yes,

Speaker 2 we also have our Five Forks hat if people want to know that.

Speaker 1 That's what I'm gonna do, yeah, yeah. But you're wearing a Philly's hat, yes.
We offer that pancake hat to match what a lot of our listeners are eating

Speaker 1 while they're wearing it. So,

That's the one I wanted. Yeah, we'll get the one that uh Jamel has.

Speaker 1 Dave Raymond, who

Speaker 1 you don't know who that is. Well, I'm okay, go on.
Just because I already told you. Yes.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Philly's legend. Dave Raymond, who's the

Speaker 1 original Philly fanatic. Wow.
And I

Speaker 1 just did this, like the coolest thing where I got interviewed as part of a documentary about the Philly fanatic. Wow.
Oh, my God. It's a legit documentary with like all the great Phillies.

Speaker 1 And Tyler Kent, the guy that was making it, wanted to have like a

Speaker 1 comedian's perspective on

Speaker 1 like why he's so funny because he's just like the best. I've ever shown him from him.
And so he interviewed me. I was sitting at Frank's desk with my co-worker, John Frank.

Speaker 1 He's got all this like Simpson stuff. So it looked like my desk.
And it was really not what my office looks like. Shout out to John Frank.
Love John Frank. He did love John Frank.

Speaker 1 I was like sitting at his desk. I was like, does it look like I have an Asian wife and three children? Because I don't.

Speaker 1 He said it all up before I sat down. But

Speaker 1 yeah, then I got to like talk about that. And

Speaker 1 then they're like, we're also trying to, because I'm from Philadelphia, people know

Speaker 1 it's the only thing about me that is,

Speaker 1 that exists. But they were like, oh, we're also trying to get Tina Faye.
I was like, oh, yeah, poor man's Christine Engel. Sure.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 She says, yes.

Speaker 1 But it was like the coolest, weirdest thing to be asked to do. So that was cool.

Speaker 1 And I got to meet Dave Raymond, who is the original fanatic. Wow.
That rules.

Speaker 1 As a,

Speaker 1 sometimes they say never meet your heroes, but in this scenario, it seems like it worked out great.

Speaker 1 It did. I was hoping to meet the actual fanatic, but I think I probably would have passed out.

Speaker 1 I met Brady. I met Tom Brady at,

Speaker 1 you know,

Speaker 1 I mean, it was great. I caught a pass from him.
This is an, I mean, I've said this on the podcast before. I caught a pass from him.
Yeah. But earlier on in the thing, what a toilet paper.

Speaker 1 frady knows that shit goes in the toilet yeah right um

Speaker 1 but i like i also had him sign my like i was like will you sign my like belly or something and then i remember i lift up my shirt i've said i think i've said this on here too

Speaker 1 what do you want no it's i'm just saying it's fine yes you think you have but yes you have it's fine and he was like oh i can smell it referring to my belly button and i was like

Speaker 1 I think my belly button smelled at the at the time.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 I remember just being like, this guy is like around like 300-pound lineman all the time.

Speaker 1 And then I am a guy who like, this guy who I look up to the most, I'm the guy who made him be like, ooh, I can smell you. Made me feel very, made me feel very low on the stage.

Speaker 1 Do you think you were going to laugh at that? Or did you?

Speaker 1 No, you know, I think, I think, I think his, you know, I think the order of business was to like,

Speaker 1 I was being, like, I was supposed to be being annoying, but he liked, I, Wager knows this. I caught a pass from him and then I put the ball on the ground.
I pretended to have sex with it.

Speaker 1 And then he loved me from there on. Was this for a commercial or something it was for like a behind the scenes oh okay you just like ran into him at a restaurant oh no no

Speaker 1 oh it was a comedy it was a fake video you were making it was a video

Speaker 1 you think that like one of them just lifted my shirt up

Speaker 1 he sounds like a bad guy we don't like him oh no i love him no no you don't i caught the ball and then i i humped the ball and then he was like which is a very funny comedy thing to do of course yeah that's very funny yeah uh and then he was like

Speaker 1 she like loved me after that and he signed a a jersey for me. He was very, very nice.

Speaker 1 So, that's I need to, I need to take a break just because of Brady, Nigel's gonna step away, just because of Tom Brady.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I think she maybe was a little affected by some of the stuff you were saying.

Speaker 2 Uh, but he goes, Hey, speaking of meeting your heroes, you can meet your heroes, the Doughboys, at the Javit Center on Friday, October 10th at 3:45 p.m., and at Forbidden Planet at 4 p.m.

Speaker 1 wow ningle has returned with a change of wardrobe for our audio listeners now wearing the birds a uh a a a philadelphia eagles hoodie go birds go birds boo right folks i had to put on eyeliner to be on a podcast i had to put on makeup to be on a podcast and i think that the new way of doing things sucks i look i literally i might as well bring a change of clothes my favorite thing

Speaker 1 next year too for gottober

Speaker 2 My favorite thing about podcasting for the longest time is that you could just like look like whatever. And then now that

Speaker 2 you're making a fucking TV show, what are you supposed to do?

Speaker 1 And you don't have to look like interested in everything that's being said. That's a whole thing.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we noticed that.

Speaker 1 You guys, I'm like, like trying to figure out, like,

Speaker 2 I don't know. Pretend like you're engaged.
Yeah, I totally, I totally get that. Yeah, I know, it's unfortunate.

Speaker 2 What? You are wearing the Eagles hoodie as a Philadelphian,

Speaker 2 thoughts on the Eagles season as the NFL.

Speaker 1 Undefeated season.

Speaker 2 The NFL season is in

Speaker 2 full mast.

Speaker 1 Yeah, they're undefeated.

Speaker 2 I was like, what are the things?

Speaker 2 Full swing is what I was trying to say, but I said full mast.

Speaker 1 Full swing. I didn't mean to say full swing.
The flags are all the way to the top.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's just, it's fun to watch. I don't know.

Speaker 1 I have such mixed moral feelings about watching football.

Speaker 1 Sure.

Speaker 1 This is

Speaker 2 I have some of that too. Yeah, I get, I, but it feels like the guys now have these, these big fucking helmets, like they have like the, you know, like the astro dome on their head.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 Um, so like, I don't know if that, that does anything, but I don't know.

Speaker 1 They're trying. They're trying to make it safer in a way.
I mean, look,

Speaker 1 it's a complicated sport in many ways, and people do have long-term effects from it, but.

Speaker 1 Wrestling, your other favorite sport, also has those issues, too. Yeah,

Speaker 2 ultimately, everything's fucking bad. You just got to choose choose where you're going to draw your own personal lines.
But yeah, I mean, like, I don't know.

Speaker 2 I never like a chair shot to the head in wrestling. And they thankfully

Speaker 2 phase that out.

Speaker 1 Bring them back.

Speaker 1 And they, they only allow those in the playoffs in football.

Speaker 1 Chair shots. They're not most likely to happen.
But it's, yeah, it's fun to watch. And I feel like it's a fun for me as someone who hasn't lived in my hometown since I graduated college.

Speaker 1 Like, it's a fun way to connect and kind of like have a thing to root for. And technically, me neither.
I haven't lived in my hometown,

Speaker 1 yeah. Like, I've lived out of Philly longer than I lived there at this point, yeah.
Um, which is crazy because I'm 27, yeah.

Speaker 1 Um, but uh, but it's like a thing that my family will text each other about. I just ordered it, you know, like sometimes I feel like it's a thing with like

Speaker 1 the stereotype with like women is like, oh, there's this expensive pair of shoes, and you just keep looking at it online like every day or a bat, like a handbag or something.

Speaker 1 I've looked every day for the past like two weeks at a seven-foot blow-up Philly Fanatic Fanatic for my front lawn. And I finally bought it.
Are you going to put that up for Halloween or?

Speaker 1 Well, it'll always one, the thing that made me finally buy it was I was like, oh, I can, this is like a thing I could use every year. And I could also like use it for pranking.

Speaker 1 That's also true. But yeah, because it always coincides with Halloween and like the

Speaker 1 playoffs. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So, so yeah. So that hasn't arrived yet, but I'm excited.
Wow. Yeah.
I got a Jaws toy today. What did you get? I got a, Do you want to get it? No.
Do you have it with you? It's in the car.

Speaker 1 I picked it. It was by, it was, yeah, it was near my mailbox.
I mean, if you want, I would like to see. Do you want to bring it? Do you want to

Speaker 1 go get it? You'll get the Jaws from your car, but you won't get your vitamins that you.

Speaker 1 I got the vitamins, you fucking wise ass.

Speaker 1 She's worried about you. I wanted to yell at you for something before the show started.
I was trying to remember what I wanted to yell at Amelia for.

Speaker 2 That's a big part of the pre-show is Mitch trying to remember what he was mad at Amelia about.

Speaker 1 And I couldn't remember it. And then, and now I find, found something to yell at you for.

Speaker 1 Oh, you're switching the cameras. No, it's okay.
Okay. All right.

Speaker 1 Amelia will go and do it. Go grab it.
It's in the front seat. It's going to be fun to see the Josh.
It's a little liquid poop. Yeah.

Speaker 1 The only ride home, there was no, the only ride,

Speaker 1 I drove home from Warner Brothers, and that was the only, and I was nervous on the, on the ride. I never, and then of course it was, it was food poisoning, which I didn't know know at that time.

Speaker 1 And then I'm sorry, buddy. But on the way home, I was like, ooh, I'm going to take like a side street.
But if you got in an accident, I would have pulled over.

Speaker 1 If I was, if I was feeling close to, and then like, yes, that's a true nightmare if I got in an accident. And then the bathroom stuff didn't happen till later.

Speaker 1 That's great. I made it home.
Yeah, I made it. I made it home.
But it didn't happen till later in the night. But then it was all night long, like till six in the morning.

Speaker 2 Lionel Ritchie.

Speaker 1 It was just like,

Speaker 1 that's maybe what he was talking about when he sang that song.

Speaker 1 I do remember as kids, I swear to God, I remember as kids,

Speaker 1 like, there was like a joke, it was like, How long did Lionel Ritchie have diarrhea?

Speaker 1 Oh, right, I swear to God, that just came back to me.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it was like, How long was he on the toilet all night long, or something like that?

Speaker 1 Wow, and so Waggs and I just this year have finally come up with the same joke with a children's joke from 1994.

Speaker 2 That's fun, oh boy. I've been like, because you know, as like you, I've been conflicted about the NFL.
I've not really watched the NFL for a while, a better part of a decade. And

Speaker 2 this year, we went, Mitch, you and I went to a LA Chargers game. Bolt up.
I might be bolt up. I might be bolt-pilled.

Speaker 2 So I've been watching some of the Chargers, and I was like, you know what? This is a fun sport to watch.

Speaker 1 Fun team to root for. Yeah, dude.

Speaker 2 So I don't know. Maybe I'll, maybe I'll fucking get back into it at the NFL.
I don't know. Something to do.
Yeah. Got something to distract yourself, right?

Speaker 1 You could be a birds guy.

Speaker 1 Samoa Joe, also a birds.

Speaker 2 Look, I like saying go birds.

Speaker 1 It's very fun to say. That's good.

Speaker 2 But I have no connection to Philadelphia outside of like, I guess, knowing you. So, I mean, like, it would feel like a little bit like stolen valor for me to become a birds.

Speaker 1 There's no valor in Philadelphia.

Speaker 1 No, that's not at all. Your car won't open.

Speaker 1 You got to slide the key out of the thing.

Speaker 1 You got to slide this key out like this. The automatic locks are broken.
It's in that. Do you see it in the passenger seat? Okay.
And then you got to push the lock in when you're done, too.

Speaker 1 Why didn't you tell her that? Important contract. She's used my car before.

Speaker 1 I didn't know that she couldn't get in.

Speaker 1 In situations like this, she's gone to. Didn't she get something from my house once or something? Oh, she used her car.
That's what it was. Yeah.
Whatever. Emilia's out there.

Speaker 2 She didn't drive your car to your house.

Speaker 1 Yeah, she did not drive my car to my house. Well, she did go to your house, I think, to get your vitamins once.
No, hold on a second. Was it not? We did not send her to my house to get my vitamins.

Speaker 1 She went to pick something up, up, though. She went to get something from the house that

Speaker 1 we needed for the show.

Speaker 2 It was a Jaws toy.

Speaker 1 I'm excited for this toy. Yeah, me too.
I mean, well, I think you guys are, it's 50 years, 50 years since Jaws came out, wise.

Speaker 1 How about that?

Speaker 1 Bruce the Shark, 50 years old. Wow.

Speaker 1 There's a little exhibition at the Academy I want to see before

Speaker 1 the year is up.

Speaker 2 Yeah, the Academy Museum here in Los Angeles, which is a great local cultural institution. I've never been there.

Speaker 2 Nangle, it's such a hoot.

Speaker 1 It's really good.

Speaker 2 And they've got an awesome theater there, and they do get screenings all the time. Screenings are like five or ten dollars.
It's awesome.

Speaker 1 First time I went there, because of why, because we went and saw the thing. That's right.
Bong Joon Ho and uh and John Carpenter both spoke ahead of

Speaker 1 the screening.

Speaker 1 And you know what?

Speaker 2 There were Doughboys fans there.

Speaker 1 There certainly were.

Speaker 2 Can you imagine a John Carpenter screening? Doughboys fan showed up.

Speaker 1 Weird.

Speaker 2 Somehow there's overlap in the demographics. I saw Nangel.
I last saw you in person during the WGA strike, which was a couple of years ago at this point.

Speaker 2 And I'm

Speaker 2 okay.

Speaker 2 Nagel's going to step away.

Speaker 1 All right, Nagel will be right back. Yeah.

Speaker 2 Mitch, you and I also, like, you know, we had the similar sort of, we both endured the same work stoppage in our, you know, that's true.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 2 We had the same stretch of 2023 where just everything was just kind of shut down. Thank God we had Doughboys.

Speaker 1 Yes. Yeah.
The SAG and the SAG and WGA strikes back to back or overlapping at one point.

Speaker 2 They were twin strikes and they were overlapping.

Speaker 1 Yes. Yes.
Yeah. Yep.

Speaker 2 They ended roughly at the same time.

Speaker 1 A very depressing year. Oh, wow.

Speaker 2 Speak of the devil. Nagel has returned with a WGA strike t-shirt.

Speaker 1 Isn't that crazy?

Speaker 2 That's really cool. I really like there's a bowling ball for audio listeners that is knocking out a bunch of pins that have all the studio logos on them.

Speaker 1 Yeah. How about that? Warner Brothers, NBC, Netflix, Disney, and

Speaker 1 I don't know. Apple.
Oh, it's on its side. And then Amazon.

Speaker 2 Boy, the Apple logo is really hard to read on its side.

Speaker 1 It is.

Speaker 2 Weird trick of the mind.

Speaker 1 Yes. Yep.

Speaker 2 All right. Amelia has returned.

Speaker 1 So, yeah, we run it. We ran it.
Oh, sorry.

Speaker 2 No, no, no, no. No, that's, I'm like, I'm just curious because, like, now you're now you're back.
Yeah. Uh, you know, you're working on The Simpsons.

Speaker 2 Like, what has what has life been like for you as normalcy of some sort has resumed?

Speaker 1 Well,

Speaker 1 um, a lot is different in my life since the last time I've been here, but I really think that Mitch is dying to show us this Jaws.

Speaker 1 He's like, so excited.

Speaker 1 No,

Speaker 1 it's not what you think. I thought it was my Jaws toy because it was arriving today, and it's CPAP equipment.

Speaker 1 It's a CPAP mask.

Speaker 2 Or your JAW.

Speaker 1 Is it a Jaws CPAP? It's not a Jaws CPAP. It's on Jaws.

Speaker 1 There's a hose.

Speaker 1 It's all CPAP equipment. God damn it.

Speaker 2 Hey, you need that stuff, Mitch.

Speaker 1 You want to try my mask?

Speaker 2 I don't, I mean, am I going to contaminate it?

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah, well, yeah, you shouldn't be.

Speaker 2 That's why not a good idea. You got to wear that on your face.

Speaker 1 It's fucking CPAP equipment. God damn it.
That's all right.

Speaker 1 You're going to need a bigger CPAP machine.

Speaker 2 Hey, hey, from CPAP to CPAC. That's right.
We're going straight from the Riyadh Comedy Festival to CPAP.

Speaker 2 It's going to be a blast. Ben Shapiro is going to help, going to be on panel.
Yeah. What a joy.

Speaker 1 Well, also, we're going to check into the headgum offices in Riyadh as well, which we've talked about.

Speaker 2 Yeah, Headgum Riyadh is up in full swing. Full mast, if you will.

Speaker 2 They're doing good work over there.

Speaker 1 It will happen at some point. It will happen.
What if I got up now and put on a bench of Piero teaching?

Speaker 1 A lot has changed in my life.

Speaker 1 Yeah, because the last time I did the show, I was like, I'm pretty sure it was the last time I did the show. It was

Speaker 1 cookies.

Speaker 1 That sounds right.

Speaker 2 This was during the pan. This was a pandemic or something.

Speaker 1 I did one about cookies and then one about dogs. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Dog. Dog Doe Bark Fest.
So Doe Bark.

Speaker 1 Cookie Draft. Cookie Draft.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 1 And I was saying something about, like, oh, I

Speaker 1 throw up a lot recently, or something like that, which you guys knew, but the listeners didn't know is because I was frightened. That's right.
That's right. We kept it from you, you freaks.

Speaker 1 You didn't know. No, but we knew.
And we're all really happy. It's working out, right? Yeah, it's right.
It's working out.

Speaker 1 Mixed it up in a little cup. It's a whole thing.
Wags and I together created one sperm.

Speaker 1 Very out-of-breath sperm, lumbering his way.

Speaker 1 You can hear it breathing.

Speaker 1 Come on, God, just keep going.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so that was like, and that was right before the strike. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I had my baby. And

Speaker 1 so then I had like this like five-month like

Speaker 1 maternity leave, like unpaid maternity leave accidentally. So that that was that was cool um and weird so uh

Speaker 1 yeah so now but the bigger news i think the bigger dove boys related news is that

Speaker 1 and i'm sorry to let people down but i started eating meat again yes

Speaker 1 and

Speaker 1 i think and it was because when i was pregnant i

Speaker 1 was so nauseous i had something called hyperemesis for most of my pregnancy. And I was like not able to keep like anything down.
I was not able to eat.

Speaker 1 And then at one point, I like, so if I ever did get hungry, I was like, I had to eat right now because this is going to pass. I'm not going to be able to eat anything.
And

Speaker 1 I just wanted fried chicken. Yeah, sure.
I was like, I'm getting it. I have to get, I have to get, you know, and my, my, my iron was really low.

Speaker 1 So I had some fried chicken and I was like, this is the best food that exists. Like, why would I have ever denied myself this?

Speaker 1 But then I like, in my pregnancy, pregnancy, I, like, had to, like, I ate red meat and things like that. And

Speaker 1 kind of just out of necessity, because I was like, I need to get food when I can, and it needs to be easy and pack a punch or whatever.

Speaker 1 There's a lot of people, like a lot of women when they get pregnant will eat meat again, right?

Speaker 1 Like, isn't that just for, like, isn't it like sometimes doctors even are like, you have to eat some, some protein like that, right? Yeah, I think, like, if it's something that you are like

Speaker 1 able to eat, like, some people, they go for so long not eating meat that they can't I don't think they can really digest it or whatever but it's like if something you're willing to do it is it's just kind of the easiest way to get the protein and the iron and stuff that you need there are other ways but if you're like me and you were like sick as hell and like not a cook like I just wanted the easiest path to like get through the day um and that's all like really good excuses that people online can't argue with me about but it's been two and a half years and I still love fried chicken what was your do you remember your first bite of fried chicken?

Speaker 2 Do you remember where you went?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I, uh, there's this place in my neighborhood called Johnny's Pastrami.

Speaker 2 Oh, yeah, I know Johnny's Pastrami. You do? Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 Oh, man. It's so good, and it's like not expensive.
So I ordered some from there. I got like fried chicken and a cheeseburger.
And I just, yeah, I just, it was just so good.

Speaker 2 Yeah. I haven't had their fried chicken, but the, but I will try it now.
But fried chicken, my favorite food. I mean, it's, it's, it's, yeah, I love it so much.
I, I, I spent a year.

Speaker 1 I was just going to say on on the west side and near where you guys, yeah, where you, where the Simpsons, the homer's home, there is a honey's kettle.

Speaker 2 Yeah, there's honey's kettle, great fried chicken, and there's also dinas.

Speaker 2 There's some good options. Oh, dinas.

Speaker 1 I'm sorry, Wax.

Speaker 2 No, what I was just going to say is, like, like, when I, I, you know, I did eat, I did just a year, but I did a year that was chronicled out of the podcast of no meat, chill I eat.

Speaker 2 I was ate vegetarian, um, and including, I wasn't pescatarian either. I just, I ate no, no animal proteins.

Speaker 1 Um, for a full year? For a full year.

Speaker 2 And I will like, I didn't really miss like, as I am the burger boy, but I didn't really miss burgers.

Speaker 2 I didn't really miss steak, you know, I didn't miss bacon or any of that, but I did miss fried chicken and I did, I did miss just like a piece of fish. Yeah.

Speaker 2 And so like, and it's, it, I, I, I do, I can't relate specifically, of course, but I do understand that I feeling of a craving and, um, and how satisfying it is to ultimately like scratch that is.

Speaker 1 Yeah. And I felt that same way about kiwasi too, kilbasa.
Wow. Kiwasi, where I was just like, yeah, I needed this.
And then I've been like lifting a lot. Oh, hell.
You need protein. So

Speaker 1 and I'm also a woman of a certain age and you need, it's, there's just so much protein that you need. So

Speaker 1 was that a show? Women of a certain men of a men of a certain age. Men of a certain that's yeah, they won't even let women of course of a certain age be on TV.
It has to make it men.

Speaker 1 That's supposed to be. That was, I believe, that's some patriarchy shit.

Speaker 2 I believe the cast of that was Ray Romano,

Speaker 2 Andre Brauer, Rest in Peace, and Scott Bakula, right? Those are three. I always think that was a good show.
I never never watched it.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I heard it. Dracula, not Dracula.
Dracula, not Dracula. Sorry.

Speaker 1 I thought you said Scott Dracula. That would be Dracula's of a certain age.

Speaker 1 And it's like 8,000 is their age. Oh, that's a lot.

Speaker 2 I'm really, I like, I, I've gotten into lifting. I really, I like, I, I, I feel like it's a thing where you feel like you're making tangible progress.
It's fun to be stronger.

Speaker 2 Like just functionally, I like that, like, it's easy for me to, you know, like lift things or whatever. And like, I don't know.
I just, that, that's like, that's my favorite kind of working out.

Speaker 2 i do cardio as well but i do really like going to the gym and yeah and

Speaker 1 it's it's like for me it's like a healthier way to to think about fitness yeah like just it's like i want to be strong i want to be able to lift my kid i want to be able to play with my kid i want to be able to like not like be completely taken out for a day because i did something stupid you know like i can't afford to not be able to do to be moving around and stuff.

Speaker 2 No, 100% same thing. I got to be able to lift Mitch, you know,

Speaker 2 pick Mitch up, you know, rock Mitch to bed. Yeah.
Change Mitch.

Speaker 1 Which

Speaker 1 Wager puts me to bed every night. When he's done with the podcast, he comes over to my place and puts me to bed.

Speaker 2 Fastens on your CPAP mask.

Speaker 1 Usually you'll kiss on your PPP. Wait, is that a new CPAP? This is a new CPAP mask.

Speaker 1 You have the machine. I have this machine.
I've been using it for a year.

Speaker 1 But I haven't been lifting. I need to get my gains going.
I mostly lift up barrels and throw them at guys whose girlfriends I've stolen.

Speaker 1 That's not nothing. That's not nothing.
That's nothing.

Speaker 1 You also lift up the girlfriend. Yeah, you got to go.
And then climb ladders. And then climb ladders.
Like, climb up a scaffold. That's a lot.

Speaker 1 Throw barrels at Italian, which is fun. To throw a barrel at an Italian is very fun.

Speaker 1 He just jumps right over there. That's the last group you're allowed to throw things at.
Yes. Italians are the last groups.
I'd just keep doing it until

Speaker 1 Woke takes it away from us.

Speaker 2 As a, you know,

Speaker 2 so

Speaker 2 you're back in a writer's room. Do you have, like,

Speaker 1 I'm always curious, and we've talked about The Simpsons specifically with our good buddy matt selman but like like what are what are you snacking on i was the lunch king over there i know you were mitch talking about this forever we'll make this about you i have to

Speaker 1 i need to

Speaker 1 all right you're the snack king i i mean i got a lot of i i wonder how things have changed over there but i was the lunch because at one point when when did you start going in there into the offices because there was a long stretch where you were in it because one covid two and you started right around when i started a couple months before COVID, yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah. So you were in there for a very short period.
I was in there for a short time and there was always donuts every single day. Oh, every single day.

Speaker 1 Every single day there was donuts, which to me felt like

Speaker 1 it felt like a punishment for the writers. Like it felt like, don't you care about us? Like, that's why are you making us eat donuts? Because, because you can't help it.
Donuts are like. Delicious.

Speaker 1 And you, you know, you take a break during the, like, you walk in and then there's still donuts, but they're also like good, expensive donuts.

Speaker 1 And yeah, like, I took them home and like, froze, like, I gained a bunch of weight when I moved there, when I started working there. Oh, there it is, like the Simpsons 15, even more than that.

Speaker 1 When people start working there, it, it's, you, they're, they're, you're not used to the food that you're given every day. Exactly.

Speaker 2 That's that specifically is a tricky situation because that's on Homer's Ryder and he's just been there forever. Yeah, that he's so you know, it's just they got to have it for him.

Speaker 1 He's like, GOP one, and so he doesn't barely eat them. Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2 Part of one, but he still wants them there.

Speaker 1 Exactly. And it's just, you know, what are you going to do?

Speaker 1 He looks, he looks really good. He looks great.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 But that changed after we came back into the office. We came back.
And then, yeah, we were out of the office until after the strike. So we were out of the office for years.

Speaker 1 And that changed. And now it's like donuts like once a month or something.
Okay.

Speaker 1 So I used to, it would be doughnuts on Fridays when I was there. It would be, look, this is interesting to us.
So we maybe,

Speaker 1 I don't think I'm misremembering. I'm pretty sure it was every day.
I would get bagels every single day. I would get bagels every single morning.

Speaker 1 And then if you were on the morning duty, I would get bagels every single morning.

Speaker 2 Just for

Speaker 2 people, you were a writer's PA for on The Simpsons, yes.

Speaker 1 I would get bagels every single morning, then I would get like maybe some pastries too, possibly.

Speaker 1 And I would just get that from the Fox commissary. And then donuts on Fridays.

Speaker 1 And then the last Friday of every month, if you were the morning person on the last Friday, you would also, you would get McDonald's on the last Friday of every month. Yeah.
Yeah. Which was fun.

Speaker 1 And then I would get Shamrock Shakes. If it was, if it was like a, you know, like if shamrock shakes were in season, I would get them shamrock shakes.

Speaker 1 Yes. Yeah.
I mean, that's the only time I get them.

Speaker 1 And then like, like,

Speaker 1 I would do, you, you went to, you would cover the table reads and records. So we, which, do they still do them? Are they still?

Speaker 1 They, uh, the table reads, we, we try to have a like a snack or what, however, we get a cater, we try to have it, have something to do with that episode that we're reading. Oh, that's fun.

Speaker 1 Like, which I think is kind of a new thing.

Speaker 1 Like a couple months ago, I wrote an episode where The Simpsons go to Philadelphia. And so we had a bunch of tasty cakes, which is a local kind of snack and

Speaker 1 some candy. And did we have soft pretzels? I can't remember.
But then also there was like the normal stuff, like deviled eggs and a couple other things.

Speaker 1 There was people there that didn't know. And I was like, oh, these are, have some like these, they're a Philadelphia delicacy.

Speaker 1 And I like walked away and I heard her say it to the guy with her, deviled eggs are a Philadelphia delicacy.

Speaker 1 And I like went back and was like no these tasty cakes are I don't know where deviled eggs come from like I just was like oh my god like why am I I don't even know this person why am I invested um and then like there was and I don't know so things like that so like it has something to do with whatever um but then just other snacks and stuff like that where were you guys hitting for lunch recently what's the lunch spots

Speaker 1 yeah of course yeah

Speaker 1 I don't want to talk about it Nayla's got to step away

Speaker 1 I think I've told you this before, but my favorite thing when I worked there is Nancy Cartwright would come in for the table reads.

Speaker 2 The voice of Bart Simpson.

Speaker 1 The voice of Bart Simpson. And she, and she, for a couple of times, she'd be like, hey, I'm Bart Simpson.
I was like, oh, I work here. I'm Mike.
And then she start being like, Big Mike.

Speaker 1 But someone that she never recognized was Joe Saunders.

Speaker 1 And she'd be like, hey, I'm Bart Simpson. It would sign Joe's script.
And Joe would just sit there and nod.

Speaker 2 Who worked for the show?

Speaker 1 Who worked for the show?

Speaker 2 I had like the same job as you.

Speaker 1 Yes, yes. It was very, very funny.
And I always laughed at Joe. It's a good bit.
Yeah, it was great.

Speaker 1 But, well, you know what? I did it.

Speaker 1 It's so funny when you do something for so long that you just remember, I still remember every detail about that. It's, it's great.
Like, I'm like, I don't remember anything else.

Speaker 2 Things hurt you, hit you at a certain point in your life, and they're kind of like, you know, formative or whatever the fuck. But so

Speaker 2 the specifics of it stick with you.

Speaker 2 Wow.

Speaker 2 Mingle wearing a shirt now that says vaccines cause adults.

Speaker 2 i needed to make a statement well we can't go to see pack now

Speaker 1 there's a lot of vaccine state since you've been gone there's been a lot of vaccine talk on the podcast it's mostly vax yeah it's been mostly vax talk we uh we review vaccines um no i can't remember i like i there's a there's there's huge swaths of doughboys that like i have trouble like like are just

Speaker 2 fuzzy memories. I think just because it's it's been so constant and it's been going for so long, but also because like I'm fucking old.

Speaker 2 Whereas like stuff that happened when I was was younger, like, you know, like, I remember a lot more specifically, shit.

Speaker 1 That's what I had. The stuff I remember was like, just like me doing work.
Yeah, like a, like, you know, like a busy, which I love. I enjoyed my time at the Simpsons.

Speaker 1 And maybe the stakes were different. Like, you had to be detail-oriented, and the stakes were a little different.
So you have to, so you remember the details. Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I don't have to do anything on this show. I just

Speaker 1 asked the deus to help me out. Nangel was asking us at lunch.
She said, What is what are the Gator? Because we told her that there's

Speaker 1 I was like, I don't listen to this show.

Speaker 1 What are some of the bits that I need to know? Well, now there's some, there's some feisty gators that tricked us a few times.

Speaker 2 We got a lot of gator stuff now. Like, I had to do what was cool.
We run them gators down into bayou.

Speaker 2 And, you know, as it, because it's crocodile burned fast, we might run into some crocodiles.

Speaker 1 Oh, you're where it's a little.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah, crocodiles.

Speaker 1 We didn't even get that part right. It's crocodiles.

Speaker 2 No, we still talk about gators, but there will be crocodiles.

Speaker 1 Crock stuff is coming.

Speaker 1 The croc shoe. Yeah.
Also, the gator, the The bottom line is the gator tricks us and we end up sucking the gator off.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's basically what happens.

Speaker 2 And then we had a thing because we did, we were up in Toronto last year for Toronto Doe. And we, as part of that, we'd talk about damn snow gators.

Speaker 1 And they also like this bit. Yeah.
They also trick us and we also suck them. We also suck them off.

Speaker 1 Doesn't sound like they're tricking you.

Speaker 1 Well, we get our trick. We're tricked.

Speaker 1 We don't want to be doing that.

Speaker 1 Don't you know right now that it's going to happen? Well, I don't want to do it.

Speaker 1 We never meant to do it.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 1 Just okay, starting now, you know.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you're tricking us. The trick thing.
I don't know.

Speaker 2 Hold on, I got a Texas Gator back.

Speaker 1 Well, wait a minute. You know it's a Gator?

Speaker 2 He said he's not going to trick me.

Speaker 1 So. Oh,

Speaker 1 yeah.

Speaker 2 Do you have, like, but, but yes,

Speaker 2 we just asked you what are the lunch spots? And I do think people are interested in this.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I'm not. Okay, we need to.

Speaker 1 Has Jersey Mics entered the rotation? Do you know that the first time they ever got Jersey Mike and Simpsons? I delivered it was.

Speaker 1 How about that? Wow. I know.
It's pretty, I know. Write it down on history there.
Monopoly, Simpsons, whatever.

Speaker 1 No, I always forget that we have to talk about the food part on the show. I forget about that.
You don't have to. You don't have to.
What's your favorite spot?

Speaker 1 Do you still do some Earth Cafe? What's going on there? No, we haven't done Earth Cafe since I've been there. Clementine, still.
Clementine, yeah. Clementine.
One thing that I don't like is dill.

Speaker 1 I don't like dill. I don't like dill.

Speaker 1 I hate dill and fennel. Wow.
And

Speaker 1 they use that in a lot of things. A clementine.
Yeah. Or like, I've gotten a few things there, and then I've been like, I can hate this.

Speaker 1 Can I come in and talk to the writer's PA and just give a little inspiring speech? Can you?

Speaker 1 May I, I guess?

Speaker 1 It's not up to me. I want to come in and just let them know how things went when I ran this show.
Everybody would be so happy to see you. I know.
I do need to come in and say hello.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I feel like with the thing about

Speaker 1 with PAs is like,

Speaker 1 I always say that before they walk in the office, because in the afternoon they'll take our coffee order, like just that sigh that you must have before you walk into the room because you know it's just going to be bits, bits, bits, bits, bits, because we're so excited for a distraction.

Speaker 1 So like there's just bits constantly like at. at the PAs, these poor PAs who have to just laugh and be like, yeah, yeah, okay.

Speaker 1 I went in there. I put on a show, baby.

Speaker 1 I believe it. I believe it.
2.30? Is it they come in for the coffee? Yeah, too late. I say I don't get anything.

Speaker 2 That is a little late for a caffeine booster.

Speaker 1 You know what?

Speaker 1 If I was a writer's PI, I would love that you didn't get anything because I used to love when writers were like, no, I'm good.

Speaker 1 It would make me so happy when people didn't get anything because it just meant I could go home. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 And then there'd always be one guy who needed something, and you had to fucking go and get the one coffee or whatever.

Speaker 2 I was fortunate to never be in a job where I had to retrieve a bunch of food for people. But to me, it seems like an order of magnitude more stressful.

Speaker 2 And Amelia, you can speak to this to bring beverages. Once drinks enter the picture, that's a whole thing.
Now you got to worry about spilling.

Speaker 1 You would be so bad.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 1 Your car would be just like filled up to the windows.

Speaker 1 Hibiscus tea. Wow, you got to snorkel.

Speaker 2 Yeah, that seems like that seems really stressful. Take it bringing a bunch of coffees back or something like that.

Speaker 1 It was a hard job. People don't even get it.
People listening don't have no idea.

Speaker 2 No, I honestly, I do think those jobs are harder than like my job. I like, I do think, like, like, if your job is to go retrieve shit,

Speaker 2 people have those sort of

Speaker 2 service workers are heroes. And I, I mean, yeah, I'm gonna go out here and see if it qualifies as that.

Speaker 1 You've had the easiest life of anyone. I know, you're a big baby.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I think that's true. Way I'm a baby.
Of course, my rattle. No, my life is fucking.
I agree. 100%.

Speaker 2 My life's been on tutorial difficulty.

Speaker 1 I don't know.

Speaker 2 I get nothing. I get no challenges.
So, inner struggles.

Speaker 1 Step it up. Do you have so?

Speaker 1 Like, I was a waitress for a couple of years and a food delivery person oh man and i still have like i have stress dreams about that and stress dreams about working in live tv

Speaker 1 live tv yeah live tv is stressful that's that's crazy which i've done a bunch of but do you have stress dreams about being a simpsons pa

Speaker 1 I have had a couple dreams about it, but nothing, nothing too, too bad. I always get stress dreams more about like college homework, which I, which I never, which I, it's a funny dream to have again.

Speaker 1 Like, uh, and I didn't even really stress that much about it then. So it's, I think it's, it's like me trying to figure out something to stress about.

Speaker 1 But live TV, and I, you, I, I know that you worked at live in live TV. And also, I think you worked on a job that is a very, I think causes a lot of people stress streams as well.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Saturday Night Live. Yes, yeah, yeah.
Which I think a lot of people walk away from that and have stress-related dreams for

Speaker 1 job. Yeah, yeah.
But I, I never, I never did a live TV thing like that where I, I mean, like live shows, but I've never really had a, any,

Speaker 1 I think we're so used to bombing that I don't think it bothers me.

Speaker 2 Well, I worked at Company Central's at Midnight. That show was live to tape.

Speaker 2 We did do live episodes on occasion, and the live episodes were, you know, an order of magnitude more stressful, just having to be conscious of all the stuff that could potentially go wrong, even though it's not someone who is actually on camera.

Speaker 2 You're still like, you know, involved in the prep and that. There's, there's a lot of stuff that needs to be set up.

Speaker 2 But, but as far as stress dreams go, I don't have stress dreams about anything like that. I have stress dreams about doing an orchestra concert and not knowing the music.

Speaker 2 And then I have a lot of dreams of me just just like around a bunch of toilets.

Speaker 2 Like it's just like walking into like a restroom and it's like, there's like, there's like 20 toilets and the stall doors are broken. The toilets are all clogged.
Like none of them are usable.

Speaker 1 What are you going to jack off into?

Speaker 1 Which one is a gator in?

Speaker 1 You look down for gator feet.

Speaker 2 So just a bunch of like disgusting toilets that I'm looking at. And there's no place for me to go to the bathroom.

Speaker 1 I'm like, this is fucking horrible.

Speaker 2 So I have a lot of those. Those are sources of stress.

Speaker 1 You're not jacking off this year, right? Like how you didn't eat meat for a full year?

Speaker 2 Yeah,

Speaker 2 it's

Speaker 2 no meat till I beat.

Speaker 1 This year, no meat shall. Wow, we're almost done with the year.

Speaker 1 You've done really good.

Speaker 2 We're on the back end of it.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I'm doing great. Man.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I didn't know. What about other people's?

Speaker 1 You know, you can do that.

Speaker 2 I can do it to other people. Yeah,

Speaker 2 just not myself.

Speaker 1 It's part of the problem. When he puts me to bed, it's part of the process.

Speaker 1 That's horrible.

Speaker 1 Those are cute. Yeah, we're having fun.

Speaker 1 I, look,

Speaker 1 I do think, well, it's funny. And when you have one of those jobs,

Speaker 1 like a food, like I was always nervous about getting something wrong. Yeah.

Speaker 1 And it is, it's also interesting to just see the, and I never worked, the closest I got to food service was probably The Simpsons or.

Speaker 1 working at AMC, but it was always interesting to see just the inner workings of like when I went to Tender just to say to bring up out of nowhere, to see like the inner workings of like a restaurant during the lunch hour and how it all worked.

Speaker 1 And they were getting hundreds of orders like my, like, you know, like multiple orders like that. And I was like, damn, this is fucking hard, like hard fucking work.

Speaker 1 And it's hard because like the, when I worked at the restaurant for a little while, I was the lunchtime food delivery. What restaurant did you work at? It's called Max and Irma's.
It's a

Speaker 2 one of Mitch's cats is named Irma.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 It's because I lived in Pittsburgh for five years and after college. And

Speaker 1 I worked, it was like in an industrial park, like a business park. And then I became the delivery person at lunchtime.
So my job was, it was all within this like business park.

Speaker 1 And I would have to like get the lunch orders and put in my car and drive whatever.

Speaker 1 But you're sub, like, you're so powerless at so many levels because it's like, you got to wait for the cooks and make sure, like, they have everything. And then the, um, the,

Speaker 1 what is it called? The prep people who are like putting all the sauces on it and stuff like, and you're just like standing there and you have no control over, like, it's an hour late, but you can't.

Speaker 1 But then when you get, same with waitressing, like, when you get to the tables, you're the face of it, you know, whatever.

Speaker 1 So, like, I would like drive up to deliver it, and people would be like, you know, you're so late. And I would be like, I'm so like, you know, I have no idea.

Speaker 1 You will like end up working with those people. I would be like,

Speaker 1 I would be writing the names on them and stuff like that. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I would be, I would, because just to expedite the process, because like it is that sort of thing of like, they have so many hands and you have to like help do it. Exactly.
I did a lot of that.

Speaker 1 Um, but it's, yeah, there's just so much of like things that could go wrong that aren't your fault, but then you have to take responsibility for it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 But I, yeah, I just, the dreams are like, I go back to the restaurant and I don't like they've moved to tables and I don't know which table is which number, or I go back to SNL and then they've moved like all the offices.

Speaker 1 Like, it's just like kind of silly things, you know, that I go. The mango's costume is in the different room, right? I wasn't there that long ago.

Speaker 2 Do you have Emma Amelia? Do you ever have stress dreams about work?

Speaker 1 I have for this job. Hopefully not for this job.
Hopefully, not for this job. Yeah, they have stress dreams about you around a bunch of toilets.

Speaker 1 I have had like bathroom stress dreams where like I go to a like I'm in my dream. I'm like, and this maybe is from road tripping.

Speaker 1 I like go into like a gas station or something and the bathroom is like disgusting. And I don't want to touch it.
That's similar to what I have to do.

Speaker 1 Nothing is working and I like can't go to the bathroom. I feel like that's real life for me a lot.
Yeah. I have stress stress dreams about, I had one work-related stress dream.
I used to work at a

Speaker 1 movie theater, the one that I saw Bill Clinton at. Yes, yeah.

Speaker 1 And I had a dream. What movie was he seeing?

Speaker 1 Deep Thal? Deep Throat. I think it was the

Speaker 1 Charlene Thero. What's her name? Charlie Theron.
Charlie Stherin movie. That's very funny.

Speaker 2 Bad Max Fury Road.

Speaker 1 No, it's the poster had a woman with a bunch of stickers on her face.

Speaker 2 Oh, okay. Dude,

Speaker 2 what the fuck is that?

Speaker 1 Oh, I know what that was it like tustin or if it's like a some weird uh

Speaker 1 not young adult is it tully tully tully tully

Speaker 1 i think he still has tully anyway i had a dream that i worked like a full i thought it was gonna be tilly

Speaker 1 want to see jennifer tilly

Speaker 1 i worked a full like eight hour shift uh

Speaker 1 it was so mundane in the dream yeah and then i woke up and i was pissed because i was like i didn't get paid for that shit

Speaker 1 but i mostly have dreams about like not being able to open my mouth or my teeth all out. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, chipping, rotting. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I did when I bartended, have dreams where I like went into work and just like worked a full shift. And then I would wake up and I'd be like, well, what the fuck? Now I actually have to go do that.

Speaker 1 That's stressful.

Speaker 2 I went out real quick.

Speaker 2 He went and saw Telly.

Speaker 1 He's like, I was waiting for him to land the plane in the Hudson.

Speaker 1 Thought it was silly. Yeah.

Speaker 1 You know, I don't really have dreams. Not, I used to not have them, but now,

Speaker 1 thanks to this bad boy, Wages. But just taking out a CPAP, my CPAP mask, I do have dreams.
Should I put it on? Yeah, if you want.

Speaker 1 I was waiting for her to kiss Mulder.

Speaker 1 Sully from the X-Foles. We love, we love Bill.

Speaker 2 What was it? Was he like, did you interact with him at all?

Speaker 1 No, he had Secret Service around him. Oh, wow.
Did you interact with them at all?

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 1 Did you talk to Epstein at all?

Speaker 2 Was the place cased by Secret Service in advance? Like, was there any prep or scouting?

Speaker 1 That's a great question. I'm sure it was.
Yeah. But I was freaking out.
I was like, Bill Clinton's here. Bill Clinton's here.
And they were like, Amelia, you have to go upstairs. You cannot.

Speaker 1 Did he request a popcorn bucket with a hole in the bottom?

Speaker 1 I met him once when I was in college

Speaker 1 because I was

Speaker 1 got the particular scholarship that I got to college, they like it was called the mayor scholarship, and they invited all of the mayor scholars that were there to go to this event that the mayor of Philadelphia was doing with Bill Clinton.

Speaker 1 And then he like went out as a way to introduce us to him and stuff. It was, it was nice.
You said hi to him? Yeah, he shook our hand. That's my hand and stuff.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we have a picture somewhere. Wow.

Speaker 2 Bill Clinton came to when I was in high school, my

Speaker 2 school district, Long Beach Unified School District, Mr. Mitch's putting the the CPAP mask on.

Speaker 1 Oh, I'm going to get changed too.

Speaker 2 And

Speaker 2 Bill was like, came to our high school, and our band, our school band, played Hail to the Chief for him.

Speaker 1 Wow. Yeah.

Speaker 2 But the whole thing was that the Long Beach Unified School District had instituted district-wide uniforms and had seen, like, it was one of those bullshit, those things like in the 90s, we like didn't have any real problems.

Speaker 2 So they were like, oh, school uniforms. This is the kind of thing a president should get behind, you know.

Speaker 1 Mitch, a great story.

Speaker 1 This is confirming that the CPAP episode will not work.

Speaker 1 You can hear me, can't you? Barely.

Speaker 2 It's not particularly audible or cool.

Speaker 1 I do talk to Wally and Irma like Bane when I put it on. That's cute.
Wally Irma. That's what I do when I go to bed.

Speaker 1 They sent me the wrong size fucking mask.

Speaker 2 Yeah, that's not really fitting your face there.

Speaker 1 See, it is too small. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'll be calling.

Speaker 1 You look like a cute little elephant. It is very, it is.
I mean, I don't know how. Thank you for saying that I look like a cute little elephant because I don't know how.
I said cute and little before.

Speaker 1 I appreciate it. No, no, I'm saying that is truly a compliment.
I, I, I, because I, you know, I'm very self-conscious about uh wearing a CPAP mask.

Speaker 1 If I would have someone to sleep over, for instance, it's uh, you know, okay, all right.

Speaker 1 It has not happened in a very long time.

Speaker 1 No meat shall I beat this year, eitherwise. There's nothing happening.
Nangel is a change shirt to get a new shirt on and it says abortion bans can fuck off into the sun. I love it.
I like that a lot.

Speaker 1 And there's this amazing writer called Jessica Valenti who has a, um, who has a daily newsletter called Abortion Every Day.

Speaker 1 And she writes about like all the stories of the horrible shit that's happening that are quote unquote unintended consequences in a lot of ways of the abortion bans and stuff like that.

Speaker 1 And how it's all by design and blah, blah, blah. She just really breaks it down in an amazing way.
So I bought this to support her, but it says abortion bands.

Speaker 1 And then it has this really fun picture of like a sun, like cute little sun, like walking on the street, and then under the sun says, can fuck off into the sun.

Speaker 1 So, it just looks like I have a shirt on that says abortion bands.

Speaker 1 Yeah,

Speaker 1 especially if I have a hoodie on or something that covers a bottom, or if I'm just sitting at a table, it just is a shirt that says abortion bands, and then like a happy thing.

Speaker 1 So, I wish the design was different. So, I don't wear it around,

Speaker 1 I don't wear it out. Maybe it works out in your favor.

Speaker 1 And every time someone who's pro-abortion is looking at it when the bottom part is covered and everyone who's anti-abortion is looking at it when it's the full shirt.

Speaker 1 So maybe it works out in that way. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Well, the shirt that I just had on

Speaker 1 vaccines cause adults, I think that's such a clever, I got it from, I don't remember where I saw that slogan before, but

Speaker 1 it's like a Minnesota,

Speaker 1 I don't know. Mississippi maybe public health fund thing.

Speaker 1 But I was really like, you know, once people have hats that are like, make America gay again or whatever, like they, they're supposed to look like the MAGA hat. Yeah.
A little tricky.

Speaker 1 But then it's like, ooh, we're being cheeky. Like,

Speaker 1 I don't like that because it's,

Speaker 1 I feel like, was it the Doughboys? I did a live show somewhere and somebody in like the front row had one on. And I was so uncomfortable the whole time.

Speaker 1 And then it wasn't only I'm pretty sure that it was just a MAGA hat. No, no, I like left and it was like, make California green again.
It was something like that.

Speaker 1 Like, and, but I was like, why would you put people through thinking, you know, sure, sure. So I had that on, I've worn that shirt like maybe twice, and I've been really aware of like

Speaker 1 are people feeling like a little unsafe at first if they think it's going to be sure. Yes, right.

Speaker 1 Well, like I was saying, that thing of, yeah, you don't want to, I guess I was apparently saying you don't want to hurt pro-abortion people's feelings, which yes, you do, of course. Like,

Speaker 2 yeah, but I get, I get, I get, but you also don't want them to shoot you.

Speaker 1 Oh, well, that's also a good point. You mean anti-abortion.
So fuck.

Speaker 1 Oh, my God.

Speaker 1 I am pro- Oh, God. Never mind.
I'm not going to say shit anymore. You know where I stand, fools.
Yeah, you just don't fuck.

Speaker 1 I just don't fuck.

Speaker 1 Celibacy. That is the way to go.

Speaker 2 We're here in soup month.

Speaker 2 Outside of soup, do you have any favorite wet foods?

Speaker 2 Like you could, we, I'm thinking pasta. I'm thinking like, you know, like a like a stew.
I'm thinking like a braised like

Speaker 2 dish or something.

Speaker 1 Most, I'm going to be honest with you, the most food, I think most food is wet.

Speaker 2 Most food is wet to some degree.

Speaker 1 Some food is more wet. Yes, there's moisture in every most food.
Yeah, otherwise it's too dry. That's true.

Speaker 1 Do you have a favorite dry food? Cracker probably is up there.

Speaker 2 Cracker's up there.

Speaker 1 Cereal. Yes.
But then that gets wet.

Speaker 1 It's funny. The most dry food kind of does get a little cracker you put in a soup a lot of of the time, or you eat it with some cheese.

Speaker 2 Cheese got a little moisture.

Speaker 2 A cracker can just be a dry guy, it doesn't necessitate it.

Speaker 1 No matter what, it's going in here. That's shit.
I'm pointing at my mouth. Right.
Oh, yeah, cheese. Normally wet.

Speaker 1 Don't be weird, guys.

Speaker 2 I get, I've had some medication recently that gives me a dry mouth.

Speaker 1 I fucking hate having a dry mouth. What a horrible sensation.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 1 And people can hear it. My dad has it.
Like, I can hear it when I'm like with him. I can hear it kind of.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 I want to be salivated.

Speaker 1 I get the, I get the dog foam on the quote. Oh, sure.

Speaker 1 You always will say, you got a little something there. It will be, it will be the, the rabies kind of foam forming on that always happens to me, which I think is just a sign of being dehydrated.

Speaker 1 Yeah, probably. Yeah.
But I never like it. Yeah.
I think that, like, I think, I don't know if,

Speaker 1 what's that thing called where you can't hear, you don't like hearing chewing? Mesophonia. Mesophonia.
You make fun of it a lot on the show. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I think it's a real thing, but like, just with my dad. Okay.
Like, I can't, I love him.

Speaker 1 him he's a great guy cannot be in the same room with him when he's eating um like i feel like i when he's in pennsylvania and i'm here i know when he's eating cereal like it just it's like i it's so enraged like enra like enraging yeah um you reminded me of the one thing i don't like

Speaker 1 and i just got i didn't like thinking about it when someone abortion

Speaker 1 yeah i'd want to see that i'd want to see this bottom half go around um

Speaker 1 uh when someone bites their their fork. Yeah, I don't like the fork.

Speaker 1 Cut it out. What are you doing?

Speaker 1 You missed the food. You went right to the fork.

Speaker 2 You do one of those. He's like, oh,

Speaker 1 yeah. No, that's what I do, too.
And my mom and dad would, my dad especially would bite his fork sometimes. And my sister and I would bite, ugh.
Like we were going to eat it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 You want a fork that you know, he wants to make sure the fork is still there. I guess so.
Yeah. He was, you know, he was born in the 40s.

Speaker 1 It was a different time.

Speaker 1 Yeah, because people will steal your fork right out of your body. 100%.
You've got to hold on to

Speaker 1 down on that son.

Speaker 2 Do you ever take a spoon and turn it completely upside down in your mouth? I like to do that.

Speaker 1 No, I don't do that. You gotta clean it off? Yeah.

Speaker 1 Oh, sure, to clean it off. Or sometimes you got like food on.

Speaker 2 Yeah, sometimes you got like ice cream.

Speaker 1 It's just like, oh,

Speaker 1 all your taste buds are on your tongue, so it makes sense to flip it and put the food onto your tongue instead of the spoon. I'm not doing like a, I'm not.
I don't know where my taste buds are.

Speaker 1 That's true.

Speaker 2 All right, settle down, you two.

Speaker 1 I'm not doing like, I'm not doing like goofy style. What's the skateboarding? skateboarding? I'm not, I'm not pulling like an ollie or whatever.
Doing it backwards, right?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I'm like, I'm not goofy foot. I'm not going like full, I'm not doing tricks with the spoon into my doing an invert.
No, no, I'm not doing that almost almost ever.

Speaker 1 I mean, like, if that spoon needs some cleaning, I'll clean it off.

Speaker 2 I was just remembering this kid from high school, Gary, who his whole gimmick was carrying a spoon around. And I was like, you're the spoon man, but I get Gary was kind of the spoon kid.

Speaker 1 And he's like, you have a spoon. He's like, oh,

Speaker 1 wait, really?

Speaker 2 Holy fucking spoon guy.

Speaker 1 We've done this show for 10 years, and I'm just hearing about Gary.

Speaker 2 We forgot about this guy with a spoon.

Speaker 1 He brought a spooner.

Speaker 2 He had a funny guy. He had a fucking spoon.

Speaker 1 It's this whole thing. I'm a funny guy and I have this.

Speaker 2 I know. I'm just saying.
Like, I'm remembering. I'm remembering this kid from my creative writing class.

Speaker 2 Who knows what he's up to now?

Speaker 1 One thing when you're saying about like turning the spoon around and eating the ice cream the other way. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I always think about the scene in Jurassic Park where it's just Dr. Sadler and the bridge guy.
Yeah. And everybody else is like not there and they're eating the food and he's like Spare No.

Speaker 1 Do you guys know this? Oh, yes. Yes.
He looks like Spare No. So he's like eating the ice cream because it's melting.
And so she starts to eat it too. And like, it just looks so good.
It does,

Speaker 1 it looks so good and creamy. Yeah.
The food. And she eats it like that.
The food looks very good. Even when they get the jello later and then the raptor comes.
Food in movies is always fun.

Speaker 1 You don't see it enough anymore.

Speaker 2 No one's eating in movies anymore. No one's eating enough movies.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 2 No one's fucking

Speaker 1 too bright pleasure. I don't want to be sitting next to my dad when someone's eating in a movie.
I'm going to be comfortable.

Speaker 1 Although, I feel like I might have talked about this on this show before, but a scene, a thing that I hate, is like scenes in movies or TV where someone hasn't eaten in a long time. Yeah.

Speaker 1 And then they see food and they're like,

Speaker 1 and then they like, like, you know, stick it all in their mouth as we usually chomp it on bread or whatever. I don't like that.

Speaker 2 It's sort of ravenous consumption. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It also

Speaker 1 feels like the actor's having too much fun. Yes, right.
I like anytime I get to eat food in a scene. I think it's a good thing.
Oh, you do?

Speaker 1 You piece of shit.

Speaker 1 I mean, like, you can get to the, you know, there's spit buckets and you'll spit out the food, but I do, I like chomping a lot and just going and going wild.

Speaker 1 Do you think you could auction off your spit bucket to dope with someone? Yes. Unfortunately, a thousand percent probably could auction off, right? I mean, we can ask them right now.

Speaker 1 Could I hashtag what likes? I'll eat the spit. Yeah.
Sure.

Speaker 1 They kind of spit roasted, plant something in it, or you know, they would, someone would someone eat it. Someone would get the spit bucket.

Speaker 1 Maybe it would be a low, maybe it would be a low bid, but they would, someone would get it.

Speaker 2 I mean, we auctioned off, you know, eat our socks, eat our socks on the George Lucas talk show, and that went for four figures.

Speaker 1 So that's right, yeah.

Speaker 1 People want to jack off, yeah. No, people do.

Speaker 1 They love it, they love it

Speaker 1 to us, yeah,

Speaker 1 which is

Speaker 1 you gave him something to think about.

Speaker 1 That guy receiving the socks, just like, oh my God, I can't believe this.

Speaker 1 I'm getting excited. Were they your jerk-off socks? No, they were not jerk-offs.
They were not jerk-offs.

Speaker 2 There were socks on them.

Speaker 1 That we were wearing at that moment.

Speaker 2 We were wearing, we took, we each took up one off and we put them in an envelope and I guess shipped them off.

Speaker 1 I like to think of the guy who got

Speaker 1 like opening the package and just like nailing the sock to the wall

Speaker 1 in this Texas chainsaw house. Where'd the money go?

Speaker 1 I think it went to the Riyadh Comedy Festival.

Speaker 1 You could do Briyad and it's you're eating soft cheese.

Speaker 1 Soft Jesus.

Speaker 2 Okay, I wanted to ask you about because this is this for me was a thing when I was eating vegetarian, soup was a struggle because so many soups are have some sort of, you know, like

Speaker 2 are based with chicken or pork or something like that. Like it's hard to find, it was hard for me to find a purely vegetable vegetarian soup, especially at a restaurant.

Speaker 1 I'll put my mask back. Sorry.

Speaker 2 I'm curious, when you started eating meat again, were there any like soups that you were like excited to get back into having?

Speaker 2 And or were there any vegetarian soups that you found as go-tos?

Speaker 1 Hold on. Mitches dashes

Speaker 1 making noise.

Speaker 1 I love a good beef stew. Yeah.
I love, love, love it. I don't know if that counts as soup.

Speaker 2 I think so.

Speaker 1 But.

Speaker 2 All right, maybe it doesn't. But I basically.

Speaker 1 Didn't we go over this already?

Speaker 1 It does.

Speaker 2 What is it?

Speaker 1 Stew, I think, is stew is a soup, right? Didn't we, did we Google this?

Speaker 2 It's a minimum soup adjacent. I think we can have our own categories.

Speaker 1 We said chili was not soup. Yeah, stew is okay.

Speaker 2 But I think stew qualifies for this question.

Speaker 1 But yeah, that or yeah, just like a warm, like, and any kind of, I still feel this, well, we'll talk about this when we rerate the food, but like warm kind of tomatoy stuff is so so comforting right um that was a change for me that i became a tomato soup person did not like it as a boy at all and then eventually became was i putting my address out to the whole world to see no i i made sure amelia

Speaker 1 won't yell at you about that later lentil soup is really good too lentil soup is very good for you tomato soup though was a change as a kid i did not like it at all i liked like vegetable like it maybe close to a tomato base but a straight up tomato soup did not like it now i think it is my favorite of the soups yeah clam chowder of course oh my friend.

Speaker 1 So I moved during the pandemic. I bought a house and I live in kind of towards South LA and just like a normal neighborhood around normal people.
Yeah. It's great.

Speaker 1 I mean, I never do anything because I have a kid and I'm a solo mom by choice. It's the best.
It is the best.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 1 I got so lucky with my neighbors on either side because they're just like such, it's like.

Speaker 1 It's just so great. It's just like anything, just like, can I borrow this? Or, oh, yeah, go in my house and get this.
or like, just like, it's just great. Will they watch your child ever?

Speaker 1 Do you, do you, uh, yeah, like sometimes like, like I had a handyman coming and my neighbor came over and sat with the toddler just for a little bit so I could have a conversation with him

Speaker 1 and just scream at him and say, that picture is crooked.

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 1 But they are this awesome young couple, Olivia and Tyler, and they have like themed parties and they have this, it's been going on for years now, a soup competition.

Speaker 1 Wow, I can't believe I'm just thinking of this now, but it is so organized. And I've only ever like I go over, I've gone over the shop.
Just quickly to share not Stephen Tyler, right?

Speaker 1 No, okay, good.

Speaker 1 No, okay, great.

Speaker 2 Go on, no, it's not Olivia Wilde.

Speaker 1 No, okay, all right, good, okay, good. It's not Olivia Wild

Speaker 1 Stephen Tyler, but let me just say, you're not that far off.

Speaker 1 Okay, all right. Uh,

Speaker 1 but uh, they're much,

Speaker 1 like, there's like strict rules and people like there's there's a theme, overall theme every year, and then people have to be in that theme.

Speaker 1 And then they have like dessert soup category and a couple other things. And you have to, they have like these little tiny cups that like just line like a, like they have like 40 that come out.

Speaker 1 And there's like the person has to present it and explain why they chose this, why they named it this. Like some people do bits and they're not even really, they're not comedians, most of them.

Speaker 1 Um, they're just like normal people, which is yeah, sure. And um, then everybody votes, and everybody takes it like really seriously.
Uh, it is really, it's really cool.

Speaker 1 What have you, what was a soup? Did you submit a soup? No, god, no, I would never. No,

Speaker 1 you judged. I, well, I was over there for like five or six soups with my like baby monitor in my back pocket.
Um, but uh,

Speaker 1 there was like sweet soups and stuff.

Speaker 1 I don't know. I don't really,

Speaker 1 you guys should know right now. I don't remember things that I eat.
Like,

Speaker 1 but just kind of stuff that you wouldn't really expect to meet in a soup, but made it work. That's always fun.

Speaker 1 Like, if you, like, if you try like a buffalo chicken soup, my, my godparents at Easter, my, my godmother, uh, Kathy Kylie, will, will make like a, well, she would always have a new soup every Easter for so long.

Speaker 1 Yeah. And I, like, I always like to try a new, a, a new soup.
A lot of the time does not work, but like a buffalo chicken soup or something like that can be fun to try, wags. You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 2 New soup, a noop?

Speaker 1 A noop? Why not? Yeah, why not? I like it.

Speaker 2 The noops just dropped.

Speaker 1 Noob.

Speaker 1 Don't drop.

Speaker 1 It shouldn't be dropped. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 The new noops just got poured.

Speaker 1 How about? I guess I don't need to say new noops. That's that's redundant.
Yeah, it is redundant. And also, you know, I don't know how much noobs will catch on.

Reviewed once previously in 2019, the entire chain with Johnny Pemberton. We

Speaker 2 four from Johnny, 3.75, and 3.5 forks. So just outside of the Golden Plate Club.
The name translates to the daily bread. It was founded in Brussels in 1990.

Speaker 2 So this is not a fake American simulacrum of

Speaker 2 a European sort of

Speaker 2 pastiche.

Speaker 2 This is the real thing that came to the U.S. in 1997.
It has 250 other versions.

Speaker 1 I just both rolled our eyes at the pastiche. We are only reviewing the soups.
I was also rolling it at Simulacrum. Oh, simulacrum.

Speaker 1 It's a good word. He uses that a lot now, too.
It's a quality word. Yeah.
I'm not exiting the word. I didn't order the simulacrum, though.
I didn't think we were allowed.

Speaker 1 I got this pastiche, but not the simulacrum. Simulacrum he uses all the time.
Yeah, no, I mean, like, I'm pretending

Speaker 1 they're soups.

Speaker 2 Okay, Nagel's stepping away.

Speaker 1 You embarrassed her with noops.

Speaker 2 Well, I know, I think, I think she was okay with noobs.

Speaker 1 I don't think she was okay with noobs. No one's okay with noops.

Speaker 2 I think the simulacrum thing.

Speaker 1 When you were saying Stephen Tyler lived next door, I was going to say, Soup in with a ladle. And then

Speaker 1 I was literally,

Speaker 1 but you know,

Speaker 1 Nangel's not here right now. Yeah, I know.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 I told you I met Stephen Tyler once.

Speaker 1 When she comes back, no, no, I shouldn't do it when she comes back.

Speaker 2 I met Stephen Tyler once when I worked at Funny or Die.

Speaker 1 Where else do I work with Nangel briefly?

Speaker 2 But

Speaker 2 Stephen Tyler came in and he did a, he just came in and talked to everybody.

Speaker 2 And he was just brought up out of nowhere because he's just like a really intense guy who just like keeps talking and just like monologues and just tells stories and overshares.

Speaker 2 But he was, uh, he, he said, uh, he brought up the song, uh, Loving an Elevator. He said, Love in an elevator.
And then he makes eye contact with me and says, That song's about eating pussy, you know.

Speaker 2 I was like, Okay, cool. And then you think about it, living it up while I'm going down.
And he did like the motion, he did like the pussy eating motion while I was doing the going down part.

Speaker 1 I was like, I guess it's not a subtle song, pretty straightforward.

Speaker 1 I thought of something while I was getting changed.

Speaker 1 Souping with the ladle. Wow, that's really good.

Speaker 2 Is that good? Yeah, it's really good.

Speaker 1 I said that when you're talking about Steve entirely, that's awesome. Yeah, no, that's good as hell.
Fuck.

Speaker 2 Nangold now wearing the bespoke Nang Gang t-shirt.

Speaker 1 This is the one that we made for the Philly show, and then all the proceeds were donated.

Speaker 1 But I need to apologize to anyone, especially if you're not going to be able to do the proceeds went to RFK, which we didn't know at the time.

Speaker 1 Right. We thought it was going to the airport.

Speaker 1 RFK airport.

Speaker 1 I had to apologize to anyone that bought this shirt, especially men, because

Speaker 1 it's really like thin.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 I think that could look not great on certain people with nipples.

Speaker 2 Yeah, not always the most.

Speaker 1 Yeah. So that's what I've always wanted to make.

Speaker 1 Oh, and the other reason I want to make new Nangang shirts, and I want people to buy them, and I don't need the money, or you guys don't need the money. They can go wherever.

Speaker 1 Is there is, and this sucks so bad, one of the like press secretary people or spokespeople in the Trump administration has the last name of Nangel. Wow.
And we got Mitch McConnell as well.

Speaker 1 Not good for Mitches.

Speaker 1 This is different, man. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Because Nangel is like such an unusual.

Speaker 1 It's not common.

Speaker 1 It's like Weiger.

Speaker 2 It's like, you know, Mitchells are everywhere. But yeah, you don't see a lot of why, you don't see a lot of herb brinks.

Speaker 1 No, I think we're the only ones. Wow.
And so the last name is not that fucking special, apparently. No, no, no.

Speaker 1 But she, does she suck?

Speaker 1 Well, obviously. like is she good she's good

Speaker 1 i guess i was asking does she particularly suck is she like one of like the very like uh yeah she i mean she she's like the one of the things that sucks the most about her is she's so young like she came out of college

Speaker 1 being like this but her name is keegan nangel and as far as i know i have no relation to her but like it's possible that if the current lady like ever leaves yeah she'll become like the f you know the her name will be in the news all the time and

Speaker 1 Like then she'll become a Fox person and then what if she wants to make a show called the nang

Speaker 1 right? Oh my god Yeah, you got to take over

Speaker 1 so I like need maybe if there's someone out there that knows about how to trademark this stuff like if there's like a certain amount of money you have to make or something like that like to in order to trademark the you know the name or whatever so I need to do that

Speaker 1 we could have and we could send it to I forget where we did send it originally because we did say what didn't didn't the original? To bail funds, I think. Yeah.

Speaker 1 And we could, what do we send our, or, or to RFK? Okay, we send our stuff to RFK.

Speaker 1 I forgot we were doing the bail. I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 Well,

Speaker 2 I think I, hey,

Speaker 2 we'd love to, of course, facilitate as a member of the name gang myself. We'd love to facilitate.

Speaker 1 You're a member of the name gang. You let him in?

Speaker 2 I mean,

Speaker 2 if I can be.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I let him in. All right.
I mean, I let him do all the stuff to me that you have to get done.

Speaker 1 You beat the meat. Jesus.

Speaker 1 That's not my brand.

Speaker 1 That felt wrong coming up.

Speaker 2 I have a pitch for a shirt.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Say no to abortion, nang gang, bans.

Speaker 1 So you were gesturing where the top says say no to abortion. Yeah, yeah.
Then it says nang gang and then bans at the very bottom. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay, I like it. Whatever.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 2 We are talking to, but yes, we were talking about Le Pin Cotidienne. Have you been to, do you have much experience with this particular chain?

Speaker 1 I think I used to live near one when I lived in New York. Wow.
They have the, they have the

Speaker 1 communal tables. Yes, they do.
Yeah. Yeah.
So I think I went there a couple times and felt weird and didn't go back.

Speaker 2 I don't mind that big old table.

Speaker 1 But I like to say Le Pin Coterien. Like you can sound very French.

Speaker 1 Le Pin Cotirien.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I can't do it. I can't roll that off.
Le Pin Cotirien.

Speaker 1 I can't do it. I think it's just cassava.

Speaker 1 Cotidienne. Yeah.
I can't do it. You are saying titty in the middle there, by the way.

Speaker 1 The pain of the titty.

Speaker 1 Why you were saying you don't mind the big community table when I just pictured you sitting there alone and everyone just leaving the restaurant.

Speaker 1 You're laying on it like a sushi person. I'm having fun.

Speaker 2 There are four soups today that we were able to sample. A gazpacho, which is topped with mango, cucumber, radish, and basil.

Speaker 1 There was mango in there. There was mango in there.

Speaker 2 I got a chunk of mango for sure.

Speaker 2 There was a chicken soup, mangang, 100%. There's a chicken soup with vegetables, quinoa, and spicy rissa.

Speaker 2 There was an organic lentil soup, which was vegetarian, and then the soup of the day was a tomato soup that was a little bit thick and marinara-y adjacent. Now, this is.

Speaker 2 And we also got a bread basket, Mitch. This was your request.
We're just reviewing the soups, but bread is a good thing to get from this

Speaker 2 spot because that's what they do. Yeah, Nango films.

Speaker 1 Oh, breads are on limit. We should have talked about that.
Yeah. Soup month breads are on limit.

Speaker 2 Breads are on limit. On limit?

Speaker 1 Not off limits.

Speaker 2 On limit. They're on limit.
Breads are on limit. So the bread basket.

Speaker 1 Excuse my son here. He has his own language.

Speaker 2 Included sourdough, wheat, sourdough rye, baguette, a super seed.

Speaker 1 On limit got more than noops? Five brain and more questions than noops.

Speaker 2 Noops is pretty straightforward.

Speaker 1 It was right after new soups.

Speaker 2 You mentioned that, but you mentioned that the nippley shirts earlier. I just wondered.

Speaker 1 I got self-conscious too.

Speaker 2 No, but I like, I have, like, when my titties, I have, like, the little bit of the erect nipples. I do get to get very self-conscious about that.
No, you guys are both fine.

Speaker 1 This is like a thing now where they sell bras for women that have fake nipples in them because like poking out nipples is like in they want to show that but for like but i think for this could be one of those bras i'll be set for the weekend baby i think for people with with like you know male male bodies it's like it can sometimes be a weirder look like i feel very self-conscious if i got pokies you know yeah i kind of like having i like to show them off i just i'm gonna see if i can get them going

Speaker 1 I have one go put it up to the mic.

Speaker 1 Let's hear from those diamond cutters.

Speaker 1 I got them going now. Do you feel?

Speaker 1 Is it a sexual thoughts thing? No, I just pinch them. That's all I do.

Speaker 1 Is that right? Isn't that how

Speaker 1 you can? Yeah. That's what I got.
I don't want to do it. I don't want to do it.
Come on, do it. I'm showing mine eyes.

Speaker 1 Mitch in your nips. It's weird.

Speaker 2 How do you feel? I like, I like a cold soup. I like the guest spot.

Speaker 2 I thought it was pretty.

Speaker 1 Midge's nips like a cold soup, too. I think it cut diamonds.

Speaker 1 It usually looks like a charcuterie board over here, big fucking salami. So it's nice if you got, if you, I think with a chubby guy, you like, you get, you get big, uh, you know, areolas?

Speaker 1 Yeah, you get big areolas. And so it's nice to have them be like a, it's nice to have them perk up.
Sure. Yeah.

Speaker 2 It depends on your physique.

Speaker 1 Be a good name for your daughter.

Speaker 1 Areola? Yeah.

Speaker 2 I like the gazpacho. I mean, I thought the gazpacho got the job done.
I don't know.

Speaker 2 I'm fine with a fucking cold soup.

Speaker 1 Who gives a shit?

Speaker 1 I thought it was bad.

Speaker 2 You didn't like it.

Speaker 1 I thought it was, yeah, I thought it was legit bad. I didn't.
The gazpacho was probably my least favorite.

Speaker 1 It just tasted like a cold marinari sauce to me.

Speaker 2 I thought it had a nice bit of acid to it. I didn't mind it.

Speaker 1 I'll say this. I'm just going to say this off the bat.
I was disappointed today. I didn't think that the soup was.

Speaker 2 Oh, I overall was not like excited by this. I ate all four.
I ate all four soups.

Speaker 1 You were hungry. You were a hungry last year.
I'm not a hungry boy.

Speaker 2 I got in a long bike ride earlier. So I was pretty, you know, I burned some calories.

Speaker 2 And this is my dinner. So I ate all four soups, but I think there was a thing that you, Nangel, hit on, which was there's kind of a paucity of seasoning about these.

Speaker 2 There just was, there was an absence of

Speaker 2 salt. And then, you know, like, like, you know,

Speaker 2 it just, a lot of it was kind of

Speaker 2 just the, the, the ingredients that were in the soup, the flavor wasn't enhanced at all.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah, I agree with that.
Yeah. I agree with that thing I said.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 I thought, wait, are we doing it now? Yeah, we can get into it. We can get into it.
I actually, for me, the gazpacha was the, was the, my favorite one. Yeah, I like the gazpacha.
Yeah. Really?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I thought it was like sweet in a good way. Um,

Speaker 1 that I, I mean, I don't think palette-wise, you're supposed to have like a flight of soups. Like, I don't know if it's like

Speaker 1 helps that you're, you know, doing one after the other. Well, that's what the bread was for.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's the thing. The bread was not Cotidienne.
No, I expected the bread to be better. Wait, what does that mean? Daily? Never mind.
Daily, yeah.

Speaker 1 You might still be right. It might still be right.

Speaker 1 No, yeah, it was yesterday's Cotitienne.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 yeah, wait, what's today? Tuesday? Le Lundie, Monday, French. Wow, I'm impressed.
But yeah, I like, like didn't help.

Speaker 1 I would have thought, like, oh, these will be helped by this, like, chunky-looking bread, and it wasn't. That was good.
I was dipping it into the tomato soup, which very much was a marinara.

Speaker 2 Yeah, let's talk. I mean, let's contrast the guy's popular soup.

Speaker 1 They should have gave us mozzarella sticks

Speaker 1 instead of bread. And then I would have loved the tomato soup.
The tomato soup was a little too chunky. It was, it was just, it was a tomato sauce.
Fuck, now I want mozzarella sticks.

Speaker 2 Mozzarella sticks are so good.

Speaker 1 I know. We're doing soup month.
That sucks.

Speaker 1 You're not allowed to eat anything besides

Speaker 1 the soup and dipping the bread.

Speaker 2 Nagel, you had them mozzarella sticks where the form factor is more like a plank. They're a little bit flatter.
You ever do those versus the tubes? Yeah,

Speaker 2 versus like the cheese straws. Yeah, we got chilies.
I got them at chili, so they're pretty, they're pretty fun. I do like them.
I think I still like their traditional

Speaker 2 version a little bit better, but

Speaker 2 I can live in both worlds.

Speaker 1 I think we maybe had them at the Guy Fieri one that we went to.

Speaker 2 We did at Guy's American Grill, which is now closed in Times Square.

Speaker 1 But here's my thing about tomato soup is I really

Speaker 1 like it, especially if it's creamy.

Speaker 1 But that wasn't creamy.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 1 also, when I was in labor,

Speaker 1 I had soup right before I went into labor. Wow.

Speaker 1 What kind of soup? Tomatoes. Wow.
Because I wanted something that I love, and I got the Panera bread tomato soup, which I really love. A great tomato soup.
Really love. Wow.

Speaker 1 Something that they don't necessarily tell you is you might be in so much pain, you're throwing up all during labor.

Speaker 2 Oh, my God.

Speaker 1 And I was throwing up Panera bread tomato soup, which I love.

Speaker 1 Like while I'm on the table, like they give you like a thing, you're like leaning over and you're like puking. Oh, my God.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's an exorcist time with a pregnancy, basically.

Speaker 1 That's crazy.

Speaker 2 Can we get some of those for the studio?

Speaker 1 Yeah. Some music ideas yeah it's like yeah it's like a it's like a ring with a i was so confused by what you meant what you wanted for the studio

Speaker 1 um that it really like made me not be able to eat tomato soup for like like i just had such a sense memory of sure so i was look kind of looking forward to seeing how i felt having this tomato soup and it just it wasn't worth it it's pretty bad i think

Speaker 1 if i was a baby i come out barf has happened i'm going back in i ain't sticking around that long Legs.

Speaker 1 I don't want to, I'm not.

Speaker 1 I mean, it's less gross back inside.

Speaker 1 I tell you, it is

Speaker 1 all horrible.

Speaker 1 You were wide awake for

Speaker 1 I had painkillers, but

Speaker 1 yeah, I was, and I went, they, um, you're allowed to, so I was getting induced. I was like almost 40 weeks pregnant.
And they say, like, you. go have a big dinner or whatever, do whatever.

Speaker 1 And, because you're going to be in the hospital for the next couple of days. So they said, You can have a glass of wine or whatever.
It's like, you're, it's not going to affect anything. Right.

Speaker 1 So we went to a restaurant and, like, I'm nine months pregnant. And I was like ordering.
And I said to the waitress, like, so I'm actually about to go have a baby.

Speaker 1 So, and I was going to say, so the doctor said, I'm allowed to have a glass of wine. But before I could get that second part out, she's like, oh, so the no wine, no alcohol for you.

Speaker 1 And she took the menu from me. And I was like, I'm not going to like be nine months pregnant fighting for the like cocktail menu or whatever.
So I just was like, yes, thank you.

Speaker 1 And my sister got one, but I didn't even really want it at that point. But, but, yeah.
It's funny. I think your baby's last meal

Speaker 1 was tomato soup before.

Speaker 1 I don't know if that ever made it to the baby. Wow.
Well, yeah, I guess if you were 30.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, it was, I think it was fish tacos.

Speaker 1 Wow. Hey, not bad.

Speaker 1 That's what I named them.

Speaker 1 And I don't, I just want to say, I don't know if people follow me on social media. I'm not really on Twitter anymore,

Speaker 1 but I'm on blue sky and I purposely, I'm not raising my child as non-binary. I just am avoiding putting any information whatsoever.
Yeah, that's which we respect. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So, like, when I refer to my toddler as them, or I just refer to my toddler as my toddler, it's because I'm trying to get around providing information for weirdos. Yes.
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 I mean, not among our listeners.

Speaker 1 No, no, they certainly won't send you some specific baby gift.

Speaker 1 Well, actually, maybe I do. No.

Speaker 2 The, the, yeah, I mean, I.

Speaker 1 What was this big bike ride earlier? Did you get yourself a paper route? Yeah.

Speaker 2 Delivering the daily bugle.

Speaker 1 You're delivering URLs.

Speaker 1 What did you, what did you, what did, did you drive around?

Speaker 2 What did you do? No, I just was on the Peloton. I fucking turned out a bunch of miles on the old Peloton.
Yeah, you know,

Speaker 2 Emma. Emma knows the drone.

Speaker 1 I do it every couple of a couple of times a week. Yeah.

Speaker 2 It's not, I mean, it's like, it's, it's just like, it's there. You know what I mean? It's like, it's like, fucking, I can, I have time to knock this out.
What, whatever. I'll go get some cardio.

Speaker 2 I thought that the tomato soup was legit bad. It was maybe my least favorite.
The chicken soup was too,

Speaker 2 I just thought this was too brothy. Didn't you want more stuff?

Speaker 1 It was bland.

Speaker 2 It was just bland. It was like broth with like a few like loose chunks and then, yeah, no real flavor to it.

Speaker 1 I wonder if like, I mean, if this was just like end of the day stuff. Oh, could be.
Like end of the day.

Speaker 1 It is a 4 p.m.

Speaker 1 You know, a 4 p.m. soup.
Yeah, and the bread, too. Like, yeah.
I don't know. Yeah, I thought the chicken soup.
Soup's at 6 p.m. land.
Yeah, it should have been that.

Speaker 2 They should have been that tapped.

Speaker 1 I don't know, but maybe my Jaws toy just got delivered. Hey, okay.
There was just a notification.

Speaker 2 All right, Amelia, get the car keys.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 2 No, I don't. No.

Speaker 1 No. Is it like Royal? It's a payoff.

Speaker 1 Amelia,

Speaker 1 what did you have to drive to my house for before?

Speaker 1 You didn't pick up vitamins, by the the way i thought it was it was your your medication

Speaker 1 wait it was medication i wasn't wrong i made you go to my house to get medication yeah you were feeling nauseous and i was like let me just get it for you it's fun you live five minutes i don't want to dox you but you live close

Speaker 1 five minutes in any direction

Speaker 1 also i'm ten minutes late let me see this no no

Speaker 1 this the cpap the just the bag oh okay good

Speaker 1 let me see the bag because the direction

Speaker 1 Because I'm imagining that what you actually got was just a CPAP with like a shark face on it.

Speaker 1 Hugging my face. It looks like Mitch is being eaten by it.
Or just like Royce Snyder with like a CPAP on the pin on the top of your head.

Speaker 1 It is a cool toy. Wait, you got medication for me? Is that true? Yeah.

Speaker 1 It was Q Lypto, I think.

Speaker 1 You were dynamic.

Speaker 1 Wow. No, this is when I was going through a lot of brain fog stuff.
This is what it was. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
This is what it was. It was an easy task for that had a good payoff.

Speaker 1 So I wouldn't send you back for vitamins, to be clear, but a medication. Okay.
That was needed. Yes.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Thank you for doing that. I feel bad about it still.

Speaker 1 Anyways, I didn't think any of the soups were good. And also the lentil soup tasted meaty.
You're saying that was the one that had that one was vegetarian. Vegetarian.

Speaker 1 It tasted like it had some beef in there.

Speaker 2 Look, I didn't mind the lentil soup. I also just, do you talk, Dengle? I think you mentioned lentil soup earlier.
It is a healthy soup. I do like a soup that is a fiber delivery mechanism.

Speaker 2 Because, you know, like, hey, lentils, a lot of dietary fiber. That's great.
You need that in your diet.

Speaker 2 This one, again, just like, I think, I think this,

Speaker 2 it sucks to have to do this on your own, but I feel like we had a salt and pepper shaker, we could have plussed up these soups like 50%.

Speaker 1 It does. It would have also an extra.
It sucks to have to do that. Yeah.
It's hard.

Speaker 1 It's a pain in the ass.

Speaker 1 You know what I think about lentil soup? What's that? Lentil soup is mental fruit and ginger root is good for you.

Speaker 1 Fuck, that's good. That's good.

Speaker 1 What is that from? I guess the listeners are going to have to tell us. Wow.

Speaker 2 Lentil soup is mental fruit.

Speaker 1 And ginger root is good for you.

Speaker 2 Lentil soup is mental fruit and ginger root is good for you. Yes.

Speaker 2 Lentil soup

Speaker 2 is mental fruit

Speaker 2 and ginger root is good for you.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Lentil soup is mental fruit and ginger root is good for you.

Speaker 1 Mental fuck.

Speaker 1 Lentil soup is mental

Speaker 1 fruit.

Speaker 1 Lentil soup is mental.

Speaker 2 Lentil soup is mental fruit and ginger root is good for you.

Speaker 1 Lentil soup is mental fruit and ginger root is good for you. There you go.
Fuck.

Speaker 1 We're all ready to read the news.

Speaker 1 Oh, is that what it is?

Speaker 1 Oh.

Speaker 2 The warm-up I learned when I I took a voiceover class was: any noise annoys an oyster, but a noisy noise annoys an oyster most.

Speaker 2 Any noise, annoys, and oost. I almost said, I messed it up the second time.
The first time I almost said moist instead of most. Any noise, annoys an oyster, but a noisy noise annoys an oyster most.

Speaker 1 Wow. Yeah.
It sucks. It is.
It's tricky. People are going to drug off to that for certain.

Speaker 1 It annoys an oyster moist.

Speaker 1 It was disgusting. And I also, I was trying to look up my Jaws toy and I put oyster in the

Speaker 2 while I was.

Speaker 1 Your Jaws toy is just a mouth guard for your Jaws.

Speaker 1 This is it.

Speaker 1 It's Jaws' 50th anniversary, the game of Jaws.

Speaker 2 Is it plush?

Speaker 1 It's Jaws. No, it's a toy.
And then you can also put your, you put stuff in there, and then it's like a game and it will bite down on it. It's from NECA and NECA.

Speaker 2 So it'll bite, like it'll, like, you'll put stuff into Bruce's mouth and it'll bite down on it.

Speaker 1 I've been buying toys lately, which I don't know if this is good. I think it's good.
Is it? Yeah, it's fine.

Speaker 2 Whatever. You're going to do something with your money.
Yeah. What else are you going to do?

Speaker 1 I bought a couple toys. That's fine.
But

Speaker 1 I'm going to become a displaying toys guy.

Speaker 2 Well, I mean, you don't have to go nuts.

Speaker 1 What do you do with the toys that you buy? I display it. I just put them up.
They're right sitting there on the bottom. Can you play with them? No, no, no, no.
God, no. You can.

Speaker 2 It's okay.

Speaker 1 No, I don't play with the toys. No.
I was never a Lego guy. I just try to get, like, you know, I like jobs.

Speaker 2 It's a healthy hobby as long as you you don't get out of control with it.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah. Sometimes we can play with them a little bit.
I am worried about the swastika that was on that, though.

Speaker 1 It's not a. I don't know what you're collecting.

Speaker 1 It's not a Nazi jaws. It's a regular Jaws.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I'm not really like, I have books, but I don't really, and I, but I don't like, I've gotten into collecting anything. I was like, should I be, I don't know, is that a thing to do?

Speaker 2 Would I fucking start collecting things? Become like a cassette guy or something like that. I I don't fucking know.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 2 But you mentioned, I mentioned oysters, and then you met, you typed in oysters, but then I had me thinking.

Speaker 2 Me and Molasses Boy yesterday, Alan McLeod, we went on a nice, nice long walk and then we went to Little Jewel of New Orleans and we got ourselves some po-boys.

Speaker 1 Wow.

Speaker 2 Alan is son of the south that spent some time in Nolins down in Dubayou with the gators. And is it a new bit we did with the Gators? Yeah.
Anyway,

Speaker 2 we accidentally suck them off. Anyway, they trick us.
But anyway, so

Speaker 2 we were down. We were at Lil Jewel and

Speaker 2 I got myself a po boy I haven't gotten before, which was a combination, half oysters, half shrimp.

Speaker 2 It was fucking delicious.

Speaker 1 I loved it. It was a nice one.
All mixed together or half and half?

Speaker 2 No, it was all yeah, it was all mixed together. It was like integrated, but it was a good ass sandwich.

Speaker 1 Also a wet food. I don't know if you're an oyster fan, but we were saying that's a very wet food.

Speaker 1 I love white wine and oysters and french fries. It's like my favorite.
Oh man, yeah.

Speaker 2 Oh man. Oyster is a delight.
I'll do a raw oyster. I like those a lot.

Speaker 2 These were fried in this particular po-boy. A lot of fun.
Grilled oyster. I'll do that.
I don't know. I think I can live in all these worlds.

Speaker 1 Oysters are pretty good. I fucking love oysters.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 Is that your favorite? Wait,

Speaker 2 is that your favorite shellfish? Are you more of a mussels?

Speaker 1 I think oysters and mussels are tied.

Speaker 2 As far as bivalves?

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah, okay.

Speaker 1 My sister loved oysters, and then she has this blood issue where like too much iron.

Speaker 1 She has to get like blood drawn, let out every so often, and she can't eat oysters. She can't eat raw oysters anymore.
That was her like her favorite. Her iron levels are too high?

Speaker 1 I don't know what the exact deal is. I should care about it more.
I mean, I do care about it very much. She has to get the oysters drained from her body.

Speaker 1 She has to get the oysters drained every month.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 1 she can only eat grilled oysters now. She can't do the raw oysters.
They have to put like sea otters all over her body

Speaker 1 to crack open the oysters.

Speaker 2 Emma, Amelia, you didn't have any of these soups, did you?

Speaker 1 No. No, we opted out.
A bad sign when the deist just is like, did you get anything? And they're like, no.

Speaker 2 Yeah. I mean,

Speaker 2 and I get it here. I think these were all pretty underwhelming.

Speaker 1 Amelia will usually text me to make sure I don't want anything if I haven't responded. And she didn't know that.
This time I just knew she just knew.

Speaker 2 Pretty underwhelming. I'm going to say this.

Speaker 1 Nang, we haven't had you back in a long time. And last week we did a ramen.
It was delicious. And this just sucks by comparison.
It's bad. It's really bad.

Speaker 1 Hi, I'm Beck Bennett. I thought I was Beck Bennett.
No, no, no, no. It's always good.
Kyle Mooney. Sorry about that.
Exactly. No, all good.
All good. Thanks, buddy.

Speaker 1 Yeah, and we host the show, What's Our Podcast here on Head Gum. But we want to make sure you heard about a very special episode with a very special guest that we just released in the feed.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's in the feed. It was sponsored by Squarespace because they were appalled.
They were that we didn't have a website for our show yet. They were like, You don't have a website?

Speaker 1 What are you guys like, kindergartners? They wanted to do something about that.

Speaker 1 So we built a flawless, beautiful, perfectly designed website live on the pod with our very special guest and very web-savvy guest. Should we tell them who it was?

Speaker 1 Looks good. We could play 20 questions.

Speaker 1 I don't think we have time for that. Is it a person? No, it's not.

Speaker 1 It's Finn Wolfhard. But Finn had a bunch of great ideas for the website.
Beck, you had some amazing ideas for the website. Thanks, man.
You had some amazing ideas.

Speaker 1 Well, I was sort of driving the thing. I was sort of like clicking and.
And I was like, let's put a little, let's put some widgets in there. I was talking about widgets.

Speaker 1 You kept on using that phrase widgets. Yeah, there's all sorts of stuff there.
And you might want to check out the hippo. Just go check out the website.

Speaker 1 Know that there's a hippo video and know that you're you're going to want to watch that. We had a lot of fun making this episode.

Speaker 2 We should get to our scores.

Speaker 2 So Nagel, you've done the podcast before.

Speaker 1 I don't like to go first.

Speaker 2 Okay, you don't have to go first.

Speaker 1 Because I don't want to have an opinion.

Speaker 2 You don't have to go first. A bitch can go first.

Speaker 1 I thought, do you want to go?

Speaker 2 Yeah,

Speaker 2 just a reminder because you know, we normally go out of forks, zero to five forks, but because it's soup month, it doesn't make any sense for it to be forks, so we're doing zero to five gators, zero to five.

Speaker 1 I mean, we did soup forks previously, but we knew gators today was zero to five gators, zero to five gators, zero to five gator peens, yeah, gator beans, peans, oh, peens.

Speaker 1 I guess peens makes more sense than beans, gator beans, uh,

Speaker 1 peens and beans.

Speaker 1 I

Speaker 1 silver like ramen last week was was so good. We get Nangle back here.
You went to Silver Lake Ramen? Yeah, yeah. Why didn't I get offered Silver Lake?

Speaker 1 A TV sting. I know.

Speaker 1 No, that's fine. That's fine.
We haven't had you on in a long time. You have to do Le Pan.

Speaker 1 Look, which look.

Speaker 2 I will just say, we did offer you a different ramen place.

Speaker 1 Yeah, but I'm pretending that you didn't.

Speaker 1 But I also expected these to be good. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I also told Wagerup that we ate ramen today after having food poisoning for five days, it maybe would cause an accident. So, that was also a part of the, yeah, that was a part of it, yeah.

Speaker 1 Um,

Speaker 1 I was really let down today. I'm sorry, I just was.
I didn't think, I did not think any of the soups were particularly great.

Speaker 1 Um,

Speaker 1 did any of your ratings get the Nenglish bump?

Speaker 1 Because I was I mean, a hundred percent seeing you, you being here, huge bump to the score, huge bump, okay, um, huge boost to morale here at Dough Boys Media,

Speaker 2 but and head gum, if anyone else was here.

Speaker 1 Every single...

Speaker 1 No one's here. Every single soup had an issue.
There was none that I was like, this is great or even really like very good. Every soup had an issue.
Every soup had an issue.

Speaker 1 There was something going on there. And I'm going one and a half

Speaker 1 Gators. Peans.

Speaker 1 Gator peens. One and a half.

Speaker 1 So we're rating the whole time.

Speaker 2 We're rating all the soups. I don't know if I'll go next.
And Nagel, you can back clean up.

Speaker 1 That to me was like the very boring. It was hospital soup.
All of that was hospital soup. Hospital soup.
And you

Speaker 1 giving birth to a child, I'm sure that you had soup.

Speaker 1 And would you not be surprised by one of these soups coming to you? I think that any of those soups could be a hospital soup. Sure.
They could have up the food in hospitals.

Speaker 2 Dude, this is one of my favorite factoids. Do you know the first U.S.
president who was born in a hospital?

Speaker 1 Jimmy Carter. That is crazy.

Speaker 2 Isn't it wild how recent that is relatively? Up until then, people were like, you know, home births or whatever.

Speaker 1 Yeah, the rest of them were all born in brothels.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 2 The gazpacho, I agree with Angle, I actually liked a little bit.

Speaker 2 I thought it was fine. Chicken soup was pretty bad.
The tomato soup was a bummer. The lentil soup was okay.
It just needed seasoning. And the bread was all pretty underwhelming.

Speaker 2 I mean, this is the thing. It's just like.

Speaker 1 Lentil soup is mental fruit.

Speaker 2 Lentil soup is mental fruit, yes.

Speaker 2 And ginger root is good for you.

Speaker 1 Fucking dumbass.

Speaker 1 Lentil soup is mental fruit, and ginger root is good for you.

Speaker 2 Look, I like to say that lentil soup is mental fruit, and ginger root is good for you. And I do think this lentil soup was good for me, but it was not particularly yummy.

Speaker 2 Again,

Speaker 2 just not enough seasoning throughout.

Speaker 2 But I can't go that low. I can't go one and a half Gator peens.
I got to go a little higher.

Speaker 1 You can't go one and a half Gator peens.

Speaker 2 No, I'm going to go a little higher.

Speaker 2 Not much higher.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 2 I think this rises to two Gator peens.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 2 I thought these soups were passable. And again, I like the Gazpacho to some degree.

Speaker 2 But yeah, a pretty disappointing outing for Croc Doburn Fest.

Speaker 2 Nagel, take us home.

Speaker 1 I think that

Speaker 1 I guess it depends on the Gator Peens you have experience with. Yeah.
For how you,

Speaker 1 you know, we unfortunately have a lot of

Speaker 1 time. Unfortunately,

Speaker 1 I don't really. It's been a while.
But

Speaker 1 I'm just, I'm more selective about who I bring into my house. Sure, yeah, it makes sense.
We get it. We get it.
But

Speaker 1 I think I would go with two Gator Peens. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Maybe if it was like cold outside and the soup was fresh and the bread was fresh, I might feel differently. But the fact that the bread couldn't even say, and the bread looked good, too.

Speaker 1 It was like a brown, seedy kind of chunk.

Speaker 1 And it didn't do it. So I'm going to go with two Gator Peens.

Speaker 2 Two Gator Peens. We're in the hand-holding club, but we're all ballpark buds.
We're all in the same sort of proximity here with Le Pan Quatidion.

Speaker 2 Hey, that. Oh, you did did it.

Speaker 1 You did the Frenchie. Did I? Yeah, you did.

Speaker 2 I feel like I still do quo.

Speaker 1 No, it's better.

Speaker 2 Le Pin. Le Pin.
Le Pin Cotidian.

Speaker 1 You did it. You did it.
That was better. Yeah, I did.
Le Pin Cotidillion. I did it.
Le Pin Cotillion.

Speaker 2 That was a review for Crock Do Burn Faest. Le Pin Cotidillion.
Hey, it's time for a segment.

Speaker 2 I've chosen a pie, and Mitch and Nago must define a series of clues to guess what it is. The winner gets the pie.
The loser goes home empty-stomached. This is pie in the sky.

Speaker 2 I started eating pie. Pie, which one is in this guy? Baked up pastry that was tasty, but a mystery, which kind? And Nagel and Mitch were giving it their best try.

Speaker 2 Guessing this will be the type of this pie.

Speaker 2 This will be the type of this pie.

Speaker 2 Okay, you'll take turns solving increasingly obvious clues. So they'll start out harder.
They'll be inscrutable at first, and they will eventually get more and more straightforward.

Speaker 2 You have two lifelines. You can ask Emma, and you also have the smell test.
So you can sniff the pie. And Nangel, because you're the guest, you get to choose if you want to go first or second.

Speaker 1 And I forget which one is. I think going second is more helpful because it is an easier clue.
Just to let you know. Are you trying to psych me out? I'm not.

Speaker 2 Mitch does want to win, but I think he's a good one.

Speaker 1 This is one of the only games I do want to win because I want to eat the pie. I forget if me being a lifeline works or doesn't work if I already know what the pie is.

Speaker 2 If you already know, I guess that makes it tricky.

Speaker 1 Do you already know? I do know. Okay.

Speaker 2 But I can be you can, Jemmy can be a lifeline. Sure, you can ask.
You can ask Jemmy.

Speaker 1 This is the moment she chooses to talk. We went to House of Pies for lunch the other day.

Speaker 2 How fun is that?

Speaker 1 It was so good. Yeah, what a hoot.
Also, just so the guest knows, you can split the pie with Mitch if you win. That is also a thing.

Speaker 2 You can choose to split the pie with Mitch. The House of Pies, for people not in Los Angeles, a local, like an old school kind of diner.

Speaker 1 Oh, I know. I meant something else.
I forgot. Okay, never mind.

Speaker 1 It wasn't House of Pies? It was called like the pie house or something.

Speaker 1 It's like British pies. Okay, got it.
Got it.

Speaker 1 And it was really good. Yeah.
It was like

Speaker 1 the hand pies? Is that what it is? Yeah, it's like

Speaker 1 somebody at work chose it, but it was really, yeah. It's the place we did in Arizona.

Speaker 2 I don't think there's an outlet out there.

Speaker 1 It's like a fancy LA.

Speaker 1 The pasties.

Speaker 2 There isn't a Cornish pasty out here, I don't think.

Speaker 2 But it might be the same sort of thing. All right, Nangle, do you want to go first or second? I'll go second.
Okay, Mitch. You get the first clue.

Speaker 2 The first clue was written by Amelia, and I will disclose that I do not understand it.

Speaker 1 See, this is

Speaker 1 I just read it, and I was like, I don't know if I understand it. I thought it was so obvious.
I thought it would be the final clue.

Speaker 2 All right.

Speaker 2 Maybe this will give it away. Maybe it's just me.

Speaker 2 Despite all my rage, I'm still just a pie in a display.

Speaker 1 I know it. You know what it is.
I know what it is, too. Yeah, we both know it.
That's too easy. That's too easy.

Speaker 2 Okay, well, then never mind.

Speaker 1 I didn't get it.

Speaker 1 Wait, I know it's not.

Speaker 1 One, two, three. Pumpkin pie.
It is pumpkin pie.

Speaker 1 You fool.

Speaker 1 It's the easiest clue. Wait, what's the reference? I didn't get it easy.
The smashing pumpkins?

Speaker 2 Oh, it's a smashing pumpkins lyric.

Speaker 1 It is a good last clue.

Speaker 1 You are a fool.

Speaker 2 I needed this spelled out to me.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I see it. I didn't get it.
It's okay.

Speaker 1 Do you want to tell us your other clues? Are you proud of them? Yeah, here's my other clue. My next clue.

Speaker 2 I've decided to fuck my own blood relative, a vile act of incest that evokes the name of this sweet pie.

Speaker 1 What?

Speaker 1 Oh,

Speaker 1 pump your kin. Yeah.

Speaker 1 That is pretty good. That is pretty good.

Speaker 1 It's got simulacrum. It's so good.

Speaker 1 It is?

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 1 That's a hard, that's a hard clue. Two completely different.
That could be on Jeopardy. Like, honestly, like, that could be on

Speaker 1 Jeopardy.

Speaker 2 The dope boys were on Jeopardy.

Speaker 1 We were on Jeopardy since we've since you've last been on. We were a clue on Jeopardy.
And you met the Jeopardy writers. You, and maybe this is your little tryout.
Alright, I'll send.

Speaker 2 We got a little text thread, so I'll send this over. I'll see if we can get this on the air.

Speaker 2 Ken Jennings is going down a pie category.

Speaker 1 Every answer is what he's doing.

Speaker 1 Or an incest category.

Speaker 2 This pie is a little freaky. It likes being whipped.
Topping, that is. You can thank God for the seasonal pie, or should I say, thank god.
Walnut as American as apple pie.

Speaker 2 It's the perfect pie for an all-American holiday. But literally, plants were not even used.
Pumpkin pie was the answer.

Speaker 1 You got to feel like that. Literally, yours was the only one that was, and Nango would have gone.
You know what?

Speaker 1 This is a tie. Yeah.

Speaker 1 But I'm going to give you the pumpkin pie.

Speaker 2 Pie goes to the guest. Wow.

Speaker 1 I also don't like pumpkin pie. Wow.
Oh.

Speaker 2 I like pumpkin pie. My grandma used to.

Speaker 1 You like

Speaker 1 a fancy pumpkin pie.

Speaker 1 I do. Oh, it's a little tiny one.
Look at that. Thank you.
I'll give it to my kid. How about that? That's great.

Speaker 2 Oh, hey, that was pie in this guy.

Speaker 1 I'm kind of giving it to your kid, too, in a way, kind of. Yeah, thank you.
Please stop sending gifts to my kid, Mitch. It's getting weird.

Speaker 2 Hey, just like a restaurant viral feedback, let's open the feedback. Today's email is from Chris.

Speaker 2 Chris writes, Yo, Doe, last year on a whim, I entered a raw garlic eating competition competition at a Massachusetts garlic and arts festival.

Speaker 1 Come on, Chris.

Speaker 2 The rules were to eat one at a time until there were three contestants remaining, then as many as we could eat in one minute. We ate 10.
Then I ate 15 more for the win. Wow.

Speaker 2 So 25 raw garlic cloves, I guess, or bulbs. I guess cloves.

Speaker 1 I mean, yeah, cloves and bulbs, very different. I recently entered.
I drew a free night that night for that guy.

Speaker 2 I have to assume it was cloves. I think if it was bulbs, it would have been specified.
I recently entered 25 garlic bulbs is insane.

Speaker 2 I recently entered again to defend my title, and the competition was much stronger. It took 35 to weed us down to three contestants.
I ate 19 in one minute, but a true alpha named Ricardo ate 21.

Speaker 2 Both of us beat the previous fest record of 52. My stomach definitely couldn't compete in a traditional competition like Wings or Hot Dogs.

Speaker 2 My question is, what weird food eating competition do you think you could excel in and what is your goal? Wally and Irma Nation. And Mitch, a pick was included.

Speaker 2 I will embigen this for everyone's viewing.

Speaker 2 Looks like there's Chris triumphant, I imagine, at the festival.

Speaker 1 I was picturing Ben Arstalen for a minute, but it's good to know it's a different Chris.

Speaker 1 I think I'm a pretty good chugger.

Speaker 2 You're a pretty good chugger.

Speaker 1 You don't believe it for whatever.

Speaker 2 No, I'm also a pretty good chugger. I mean, like, I have a large volume of, I can hold a large volume of liquid within my body.
Check this out.

Speaker 2 Mitch is chugging an Aquafina bottle.

Speaker 2 That was pretty good. You did get a lot of it all over your beard and shirt, but that was pretty good.

Speaker 1 That wasn't that good.

Speaker 1 I feel like chugging from a bottle is like a lot harder than a glass. Thank you, Amelia.

Speaker 1 I feel like you do that on dates.

Speaker 1 And she doesn't even have her jacket off yet. She's like, oh,

Speaker 1 you haven't even ordered drinks yet. You just pull out an aquafina.

Speaker 1 Slide those napkins down to my pants a little bit.

Speaker 1 I'm a good chugger. You don't believe me.
Watch this.

Speaker 1 I feel like I need to have. I feel.
Can you go get me a drink? I want to prove that I can chug. I believe it.

Speaker 1 I believe it. You don't have to demo.
Weren't you on the crew team?

Speaker 1 I was. I was on the crew team.
I rode crew team. I feel like that seems like a young.
Yeah, I didn't like to hang out with the crew guys. So just water?

Speaker 1 I feel like everything's going to be cold. That's okay.
That helps me.

Speaker 2 What do you want to chug? Do you want some effervescence? Do you want something?

Speaker 1 Carbonated? Yeah, I'll do something carbonated. I'll chug a coke.
I want to do a cocoa. You want to a Coke? I want to prove to you that I can chug.
You want a Coke heavy?

Speaker 2 Don't do a Coke heavy.

Speaker 1 I need to stay up. I got to do an audition after this.
That's your camera.

Speaker 1 I just want to prove to you I can chug.

Speaker 2 I believe you. You don't have anything to prove.

Speaker 1 Okay. You don't have to do it.
No one here doesn't believe that you can.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I believe you can chug.

Speaker 1 All right. Never mind.
I guess.

Speaker 1 He's a chug dealer.

Speaker 2 So here,

Speaker 2 this is orthogonal to the question, but I will say

Speaker 2 one contest I always win is anything involved with lung capacity because I can hold my breath for a very long time.

Speaker 2 I won the Superman float competition as a kid, which was a face-down float in the pool. Whoa.
And I was just down there. I could outlast it everywhere.

Speaker 1 The crowd left.

Speaker 1 Including your parents. Were your parents like, hey, you should enter this?

Speaker 1 It was wild. My son, please.
He's easier to chuck. No, Coke.
Okay.

Speaker 2 All right, Mitch is turning down the coconut water in exchange for a Coke heavy.

Speaker 2 But that was,

Speaker 2 because I remember that. I was probably like eight years old or something like that.
But I just remember being face down in the pool and I was just like, I could go. I could go all day.

Speaker 2 And then I just feel someone's like, just grabbed me and like pulled me out of the pool.

Speaker 1 It's like, you won, you won. I was like, okay, all right.
You know, yeah, it was mouth to mouth.

Speaker 1 It sounds like a child pedophile organized that so they would get an opportunity to do mouth to mouth.

Speaker 2 But yeah, anything

Speaker 1 running it now.

Speaker 1 A Superman float competition, my backyard, my above-ground pool.

Speaker 2 I really,

Speaker 2 so yeah, if there was anything like that that involved holding my breath, I'd be in good shape. But if we're talking about actual food consumption, yeah, I can do a lot of red wood.

Speaker 1 I've got a great fucking tea competition. You do great in loving in an elevator.
I could be loving in an elevator.

Speaker 1 That song's about going down.

Speaker 1 What is that? Oh, it's about eating pussy. Oh, yeah.
What?

Speaker 2 You know what? I like sweets make me nauseated, but I bet we were talking oysters earlier. I bet I could slurp down a lot of oysters.
I bet you a lot of raw shrimp.

Speaker 2 I bet, like, that's the sort of stuff where my stomach would not turn from it. I think I could just take down a bunch of shrimp.

Speaker 1 Raw shrimp? Yeah. That's my mom.
Okay. Hi, mom.

Speaker 1 You know, I'm going to jug the Coke.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 I didn't answer.

Speaker 1 I feel like I'm not good at any of these things.

Speaker 2 Yeah, that's the other thing. Now I'm thinking back on the shrimp off, which we did with Hollywood Handbook.

Speaker 1 Oh, Oh, you were really bad at that shopping. I performed pretty poorly at the shrimp off.
So maybe I should eat my own words. No, it wasn't raw.
I didn't know that was the thing people ate raw. Yeah.

Speaker 2 I mean, I think they do anything. Like the way these eating competitions work, there's fucking everything is out there.
You know, people will just eat like corn cobs or whatever,

Speaker 2 just gallons of mashed potatoes.

Speaker 2 All that stuff is on the table.

Speaker 1 Are you talking about that or is this your porn?

Speaker 1 I mean, I feel like I could do the garlic clothes. I feel like that's easy.
Yeah, I could do that. I mean, especially were they, but they were just raw, huh?

Speaker 2 You know what I could could do is spicy. I could do a lot of spicy.
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 I used to be able to do spicy, but I feel like it would kill me now. Like, like, I would do it, but then it would afterwards, because I did Howland Ray's extra howling or whatever.
Yes. And I ate it.

Speaker 1 And people are like, you're really eating that. And I was like, I am.
And then I almost died the next two days or whatever. Right.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 1 I don't know if, like, I can eat a lot of Doritos. You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 But I can't eat them fast.

Speaker 1 I don't know. I don't know if there's anything in particular.
I mean, if it was an endurance contest. Sure.
But it's often about speed. It's often about speed.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Is there anything you think you? I mean, like, I could eat a whole pizza.
I could eat a large cheese pizza, and I could probably do it pretty quick is my guess.

Speaker 1 But, like, I'm not good at any of these. I hate eating a pizza.
I'm a good chugger. That is what I'm good at.
I don't believe you.

Speaker 1 God.

Speaker 1 Why did I do it?

Speaker 1 I do believe you.

Speaker 1 You don't have to do it. No, I don't.
I do. This look.

Speaker 1 We all make sacrifices for the podcast. It's like a teen movie where you're like, I can climb to the top of the water tower, and we're like,

Speaker 1 you don't have to do it. You're like, no, I'm going to do it.
And there's a lightning storm. And then you do it, but we're telling you not to do it.
And I get struck by lightning.

Speaker 1 And then you get struck by lightning. You know, I am the loser who needs to prove himself, but

Speaker 1 I do kind of want to prove it. Okay.
Well, am I going to be slow? I feel like if it was out of a glass, I would do quicker, but I might as well. You want a glass? No, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 1 No, no, no. But you stick your key in the side, like to give it some air.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Is that what that's for?

Speaker 1 Yeah,

Speaker 1 I didn't know that. Air can get in, otherwise, you have to let it in through the mouth hole.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's why a lot of like professional, like they like push air into the top of the bottle and it like swirls down, basically.

Speaker 1 Or if you do it with a bottle, people will put like a straw in it so that they can, the air can get in while you're chugging. All right, maybe I'll get a cup.
Maybe I will get a pint glass, Amelia.

Speaker 1 I'm not trying to make

Speaker 1 Amelia, can you go to my house and get a cup?

Speaker 1 I think just because you couldn't remember what you wanted to yell at her about, so you're just taking her damage. I mean, this is probably probably a part of it.

Speaker 1 Amelia went viral with a Doughboys Cup just recently. We'll have her talk about it when she gets back.
She got hundreds of thousands of views on

Speaker 1 how about that. More than any Dough Boys clip or Doughboys episode ever.

Speaker 1 I'm not on TikTok. I'm also not on Instagram, but I never deactivated my Instagram account.
And I've like, over the years, I've like I've had friends who've been like, you never accepted my

Speaker 1 invite or whatever, my request. And I'm like I haven't checked it and and so Adam Pally is in was he ever on the show

Speaker 1 yeah we've got Pally on so he's in my episode of The Simpsons which is this Sunday wow

Speaker 1 and he posted about it on Instagram and then used my old handle like Brittany by an English on his so now I have to I feel like I need to go on Instagram and like reactivate just to be like guys nobody be mad bye all right he's got it

Speaker 1 he's got it poured I think I can chug I wonder what you'll think if you think. I wonder if you'll just think this is slow.

Speaker 1 That's my worry.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you should time me.

Speaker 1 Amelia, we're talking about your viral video, by the way. Also, watch Nangles, watch Nangles Simpsons episode.

It freaks me out. I don't TikTok.

Speaker 1 again.

Speaker 1 I mean, we're going on. It's been like a year and a half.

Speaker 1 Shame on you at this, a lot.

Speaker 1 Ooh, that coach got me a little energized, wise.

Speaker 2 Nagel, please plug away.

Speaker 1 Just, I don't know. I guess it's good to make people aware of a show called The Simpsons.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 I'm on Blue Sky at Nanglish, and

Speaker 1 that's all you need to know.

Speaker 2 Do you like Blue Sky? I have not delved into Blue Sky yet.

Speaker 1 I do.

Speaker 1 It's like scratching the, like, the downfall of twitter i feel i almost feel embarrassed that i was i felt i feel bad about it because i did enjoy a lot of elements of it and i feel like i really did meet like friends no i met people on twitter yeah for sure and also friends of the show libby watson uh jesse farrar mike hall these are the stephan heck these are all people that that i i know through twitter yeah and and like them you kind of get and also just i haven't been on instagram really ever but like you you kind of get removed out taken out of of someone's like field of view almost like yeah forget about you or you forget about them right like all that and it really bombs me out that to to not have that anymore um so blue sky is like a lot of the same people it's a lot of politics talk um

Speaker 1 and so i learned i get a lot of my news that way and like i like follow jamel and he posts you know great follow always says the smartest thing that anyone is possibly saying i guess i also know jamel through twitter really yeah think about it Yeah.

Speaker 1 He's got great Instagram videos, wise. That's why that's why I watch his videos all the time.
Sanity.

Speaker 1 He makes you feel more sane. Yeah, he does.
That's exactly right. Like, he makes you feel like he's seeing this too.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 But then also, like, you don't, I don't feel crazy posting like dumb puns or something. Sure.
It's like kind of, you can have whatever. And some people say it's like an echo chamber of

Speaker 1 like leftist stuff or whatever, but also like some people aren't on social media because they want to be called a bitch or like all these other words and stuff like that or anything like that.

Speaker 1 So I like it. You can see the echo chamber of X on the other side.

Speaker 1 I will look at it and it's horrifying. I've looked at it.
I look at it from time to time. I don't want to, I don't want to delete.
I just feel like there's so much.

Speaker 1 Is there a world where Elon sells it at some point and it becomes normal again? Well, I don't know if that's ever going to happen.

Speaker 1 It's just, I just feel like it's also, it's like a little bit of like a diary or something.

Speaker 1 Like, not that that I posted like super personal stuff, but you can kind of see like the evolution of some stuff. And like some videos I made that I posted to Twitter, like I can't get that.

Speaker 1 Like, I don't, I don't feel, I don't want to post it about, like, I don't want to draw any traffic to Twitter or whatever. So it just, I feel so sad about what it became.
But yeah, like.

Speaker 1 I can't, I can't believe what it became in the sense that like I like will read it and be like, I can't believe people are saying all these, these horrible things, like, just out loud. It's horrible.

Speaker 2 I fully, I fully deleted, deactivated my, my X account like earlier this year.

Speaker 2 I just like, I hadn't, I wasn't on Twitter for two or three years and I was just like, oh, fuck it, I'll just delete this fucking thing.

Speaker 1 So I'm squatting about it. I squatted your name.
I took it over. That's what I'm worried about.
Like, I, I made it private.

Speaker 1 So you have to already be following me to see my tweets, but, um, but I don't want anyone to be posting like under my, yeah, like to just, you know, get that an English name.

Speaker 2 Right.

Speaker 1 So anyway, blue sky, but really, none of us should be on social media. It's true.
Go outside. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Go outside.

Speaker 1 And while you're there, listen to a podcast.
