It’s a Mayonnaise Commercial

If you thought goldenly breaded McDonald's chicken couldn't get more golden, think golder because new sweet and smoky special edition gold sauce is here.

Made for your chicken favorites at Participate in McDonald's for limited time.

All right, this is Anima 77.

Wait, is this 77?

This is 77.

Hello, and welcome to another episode of Anima.

I might have episodes misnumbered on the website.

What do you mean?

I think I posted last week's was 70.

I need to check our archive.

The numbers might be wrong.

Okay, should we stop down right now so Gus can fix this?

Let me look here real quick.

No.

It's a big deal to him.

Last time it was episode 76, and that was Merritt Coffey.

Talked about Paradise for Gentlemen.

Oh, see, it already says 77 in the archive.

I've messed up.

That's not right.

I'm way off.

Are you sure this is?

Yeah.

This is 77?

Yeah, the last episode that we did was the beginning is, okay, this is episode 76.

Why did nobody in the guest book tell me?

Well, they're all banned.

They're all robots.

Yeah, nobody can get in.

What a weird way to find out that all of our listeners are robots.

That is,

stop saying, yeah, it banned me for some reason.

The reason is you're a robot.

Yeah.

That's, I mean, I don't know.

It banned you because you're not human.

Yeah.

I thought it was, it was pretty easy.

And it's unfortunate, too, because I have nothing against robots.

I'm fine with them.

It's just Gus put the protections in Skynet style.

Yeah, I got to keep the robots.

They can be in our house, but not on our website.

That's right.

Is it a Neural Net guest book?

Okay, Kojima, calm down on you.

The nanites in charge.

Metal gear.

It's a neural net processor.

Neural net guestbook.

That's the title.

This is great.

So last time we talked about Austin Music Hall, City Expansion, Gus's escrow, Texas City comparisons, and murdered in El Paso.

So much happened.

Attempted murder.

Attempted murder in El Paso.

It's fine.

It's fine.

That's all last time, But this time it's a burger episode.

Take it away.

I think somebody on the Rooster Teeth website left a comment on that episode that said the El Paso stories came out of nowhere.

It was just like, oh, yeah, someone tried to kill me.

Anyway,

yeah, we're here at Mighty Fine up at Arbor Walk.

There's a...

What, there's like three locations I can think of off the top of my head for Mighty Fine.

There's this one, there's a One Sunset Valley, there's a one up in Round Rock by Kia.

I feel like I'm missing one.

Yeah,

Mighty Fine is a local burger chain that is

started by the people that run Rudy's barbecue.

It's very, what's it?

So it's in the Rudy's family.

It's very

apparent.

Look at the lines.

Think about how the hand washes.

Clean hands, the fucking door kicks, everything about this.

I just thought it was like a Texas thing.

No, it's not.

It's Rudy's.

It is.

This is Rudy's hamburger.

This is...

It's set up exactly like Rudy's.

They say Rudy's that sells hamburgers instead of barbecue.

The reading is exactly like Ruby.

Everything's the same.

This cooler with the ice and the drinks.

It's everything.

It's genius.

It's Rudy's.

They just make burgers, too.

Had no idea.

So, is Rudy's an Austin thing or no?

Yeah.

No, no, okay.

Okay, now is it a thing that we claim is an Austin thing?

Okay.

I don't know where it actually started.

We talked about it last year.

Yeah, I don't know where it actually started.

It's somewhere in the hill country where it actually started.

I want to say Lano, but it's not Lano.

Cooper's, it's Llano.

Yeah.

But it's a talent like that.

But it's close enough where everyone associates it with Austin.

We were driving over here and, you know, driving through the lot at austin studios and you know that's where they film walker uh you know the the tv show t-house ranger yeah i think i think they just call it walker now yeah and uh

we were talking about how whenever what i have an annoyance i should say i was talking about this when

like every day multiple times maybe multiple times a week on the austin subreddit someone's asking hey what's being filmed here what's being filmed there like they see the trucks and the cameras and everything like what's going on and inevitably it's always walker or it's like a whiskey commercial, but yeah, it's usually Walker's the only production running system.

Nine times out of ten, it's Walker, unless it's some car commercial.

I think I saw

like a pharmaceutical commercial once that was filmed in Austin

at a bridge.

Walker is apparently an hour and a half, or two hours a week and 60 episodes a season to cover all the filming they do.

I mean, there are like seven locations filming at all times in Austin, it feels like.

It really does.

But

there's a uniquely, well, there's a weird phenomenon in the Austin subreddit.

Whenever someone makes a post asking, what's being filmed here, like the knee-jerk reaction is, oh, it's a Manny's commercial.

It's not just the subreddit.

Like, you remember the documentary creator that used to, that did, like, your, your documentary?

Those guys, that's their bit, too.

Oh, really?

Yeah, I learned it from them.

Oh.

See, I learned it years ago.

I used to live in a neighborhood that had, like, this is how long ago it was, it had a neighborhood list serve where you could get emails.

Oh, my God.

And

you loved that thing.

It was awesome.

And one time one of the neighbors asked about something that was filming in the neighborhood, and someone responded, it was a Manny's commercial.

And I thought, oh, I wonder what kind of Manny's it is.

Yeah.

I bought it.

And now I realize, like, oh, that's just, it's just been an ongoing thing for years.

What we don't know and where our ignorance is, is we don't know if this is an industry-wide joke or an Austin industry joke.

Right.

So we would love it if you, the audience, knew the answer.

Yeah, please do.

Have you ever heard of a Manny's commercial being filmed somewhere?

Let us know on the guest book or social media or something.

No, let us know on the guest book.

Yeah, but I assume every place has that.

I mean, there's tons of dumb, like, knee-jerk go-to jokes that, like, they're almost like memes that exist, even in the Austin subreddit.

Trying to trick people to go to the Chili's at 45th and Lamar is like, that's been around forever, too.

But there's just like those tropes that the people who spend a lot of time in these communities

use as a knee-jerk reaction or a knee-jerk response to lots of inane questions.

Anyway, if you're wondering what's being filmed in Austin, it's Walker.

It's true.

It's a lot of Walker.

They used to keep building sets.

They have a lot of sets.

I used to live right by here where we are.

We're at the Mighty Fine Arbor Walk, right across Mopac from here.

There's some apartment complexes.

There's an apartment complex there.

And I used to live there.

And

I moved in.

I think I was the first resident of that unit.

It was a brand new apartment.

And back then, when I lived there,

you can see my window, actually, my old window from Mopac.

When I lived there, none of this was here.

This used to be a golf driving range.

What?

This is also, this is a great shopping complex, but it's fucking hard to get in and out of it.

It's tough.

And I've never played golf, but since I lived so close, I went to play it against sports, and I just bought a driver, and I would come over here across Mopac every now and then just to see if golf is for me.

It wasn't.

It was not.

But yeah, that's like my memory of this.

And then they they they closed down the driving range and now it's all of this it's like a shopping center you'd never guess that that was here there's like a small lake back here slash retention pond yeah i don't know if it's still listed as this on google maps but for a long time it was listed as lake fail

what yeah i don't know why uh i always thought that was really funny uh what like fail like yeah f-f-a-i-l well they tried yeah they tried they tried to be a lake just a little lake

um but yeah i like i lived here for probably a year and a half half or two years.

Yeah, the thing I remember most about you living there is that we were playing

Fatal Frame?

Fatal Frame.

We were playing Fatal Frame a bunch, and it was so fucking scary.

And then I'd have to leave at like three in the morning to drive home, and it was like the scariest drive home after playing Fatal Frame all night long.

That game was scary.

It was scary.

Were you afraid of being on the road, or were you afraid of ghosts getting you and you didn't have a camera to defend yourself?

Ghosts, yeah.

Yeah.

I wasn't scared about driving.

I was scared about ghosts.

I was in a car.

Yeah.

What if they showed up?

But But now you have a camera phone.

You should be fine, right?

One would assume.

We need to update Fatal Frame now for the smartphone era.

But you still got those batteries drained.

You still got to replace the batteries a lot, so you got to be.

Oh, it's like an old phone.

All you have is like an old cell phone.

I'm like Alan Wake style, too.

You have an iPhone 11, and you're trying to fight off ghosts.

Oh, no, a battery.

It's already down to 80.

Yeah, but you used to come over.

We play video games.

I'd have.

I don't know if you ever came over for this, but sometimes I'd play D ⁇ D with some of our

wider group of of friends as well.

I wasn't in to playing DD with some of the people in that group.

I get you.

Like, we tried.

Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, we tried back at the first house,

my first house, I remember a couple times.

And then, so I took a

bowed out of that group, but I would come over and drink sometimes while y'all played.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I just wasn't interested in playing with

one or two people specifically.

Interesting.

Not in a shitty way.

I just didn't like the way they played.

Oh, I get it.

Some people suck the fun out of of stuff.

Yeah.

When you played DD, how would you play it?

Were you pretty straight or were you like.

This guy?

I'm asking.

I like to have fun.

His goal.

I'm creative.

I like to be creative.

Is that how you would?

I like to think outside the box.

His goal is to try to piss off the DM as much as possible, as often as possible.

I don't know about that.

I like to keep people thinking on their feet.

100%.

Make them a better DM.

Oh, yeah.

Definitely had to plan for the Jeff Factor.

Anyway, now now nobody will play D ⁇ D for you.

Burndog and Vanessa and Emily want to start playing D ⁇ D, and I've been looking around at everybody.

I asked him, everybody's like, no, I don't want to DM for you.

I burned too many bridges.

Yeah, it sounds right.

Make one of them DM.

No way.

They don't know how to play.

They're going to DM.

That's the best way to learn.

Learn by doing.

Playing with Burndog, and if he was the DM, I think it would be like crazy.

It's hard to play Uno with him.

Yeah, that guy is nuts.

He's out to have fun.

That sounds familiar.

And he doesn't contain any rules.

No, no, no.

That sounds really familiar.

I've played Uno with him 50 times, and we'll be like, we were literally playing Uno.

You were there.

Oh, I was there.

And we're like, maybe, I don't know if you were there at this moment, but we're about two hours in.

And somebody puts a three on a three.

And he goes, wait a minute.

You can do that?

Oh, my God.

You can do numbers?

You've been able to do that your entire life and every time we've played together.

It's just.

I think I learned that 40 years ago.

Yeah, no, it's fine because when I got there, they dealt me in a hand, and then he went, just so you know, you can do colors and you can do numbers.

He's looking out for you, Eric.

Thanks.

Thanks, man.

He's like, you're not going to believe this information I just got.

He was trying to see if they were fucking with him or not.

It was pretty good.

If you knew about this or not.

Yeah,

he was helping me learn.

Yeah.

I think that's great.

It's great.

Did you see the license plate on that truck that said me Troquita?

Is that what it said?

I was trying to see it.

I couldn't see it from the angle here.

It's his little truck.

It was fun.

Yeah, T-R-O-K-I-T-A.

I did something this weekend that I've never done before in Austin.

What?

What's that?

I went to Dirty Martins.

Oh, which is?

No, no.

I'm qualifying it.

Dirty Martins, I go to all the time.

I'd say probably, you know, Top Notch is my number one hamburger restaurant.

Dirty Martin's number two.

Because it's going to close down eventually.

And so Emily and I just decided we're going to eat there a bunch before it goes, eventually gets shut down.

I usually go on Sundays.

It's awesome.

There'll be a bunch of old 70-year-old 70-year-old dudes with the sports paper figuring out their like their March Madness or their football league or whatever.

And then you go in the back and it's just empty.

And you just watch some sports on the TV and just fucking relax.

And it's awesome.

We decided to go at 7.30 p.m.

on a Saturday night.

I thought, all the college kids are out doing shit.

It'll be even emptier at 7.30 or 8 p.m.

on a Saturday night.

Why would Dirty Martins be slammed?

And

we walked in and we ordered our food and we went to the back and in the back were 17,000 18 to 19 year old teenagers all eating at the same time.

What?

Every person who, like half of UT was there.

And the kid who was working the counter was just like this fucking hippie punk long-haired kid.

He was cool.

He had a good vibe and he came over to bring us our food and he's like, hey, man, I'm real sorry about this.

He goes, this isn't your vibe.

I can tell.

I'm like, yeah.

And Emily's like, no, no, it's fun.

I'm getting to learn so much about fashion fashion because like every girl there had leather pants on and then like a Madonna bra Bustier thing.

And the guy goes, ah, it's the fucking worst, man.

It's just like copy and paste all day long.

Anyway, enjoy your burgers.

And I'm sorry about these assholes.

It's fucking awesome.

I wanted to adopt that kid.

I want to be like, oh, Dirty Martin's got big on burger talk or something.

But I had no idea that at like 8 p.m.

on a Saturday night, college kids are hanging out in their finery at Dirty Martins, screaming.

By the way,

screaming?

Like just, I don't know.

They're just loud.

Teenagers are loud, I guess.

College teenagers are even worse.

It was the loudest room I've ever been in.

Interesting.

So you're going back now.

Anyway, so that's...

He's got to go as much before it closes.

That's my tip to y'all is to avoid Dirty Martins on a Saturday night.

Unless that's what you want.

Unless you're looking for fashion tips.

If you're 18 and you're listening to this podcast, check out Dirty Martins on a Saturday night.

Also, if you're 18 listening to this podcast, why?

They want to know what it's like before they were born in Austin, Texas.

When you lived on a street that we talked about earlier and went, 19 years ago?

Oh, it was the cross street.

Oh, okay.

I did something way less fun this past weekend.

Had to go down to the

emergency vet hospital.

Had a little dog had a little boo-boo, had to go get him taken care of.

That place is sad and scary.

I think nobody there.

wakes up that morning planning on being there.

Well, it's much like a human hospital.

Nobody goes there happy.

Right.

And you are probably not leaving happy a lot of times.

It was, it was like, oh man, this is,

this is a, like, oh man, I'm glad.

Like, leaving, I was like, man, I'm glad my dog's okay.

I'm glad, like, he's coming home with me right now, with us, and that he's going to be fine.

It's where pet owners discover monetarily how much they love their pets.

Right.

Like, when it comes down to it, when it's like, how much to save his life?

Yeah.

It's $7,000?

You're like, oh, oh, God, he was a great dog.

Speaking as a person who spent every, who was just like, here, take more money to keep Arrow and Henry alive.

But you don't get the same vibe when you take your sick mom to the hospital and they're like, it's going to be like seven grand to save your mom's life.

She's a great mom.

More than a living.

Yeah.

It was a hell of a run, mom.

There were no 18, 19-year-old kids screaming there.

Different kinds of screaming.

Very different vibe.

There's no

peppers.

That was actually one of my favorite things: listening to people say what the names of their pets were.

I was like, oh, like all of these have stories, right?

Like, these all make sense.

Like, they have a history.

There was one dude there who brought his dog, and the dog was named Wolfie.

I was like, man, that's a big Terminator 2 fan.

Oh, that's exactly.

Yeah,

I was like, I don't know if I've ever heard of someone naming their dog Wolfie outside of Terminator 2 when Edward Furlong calls home to check in.

How's Wolfie?

That part's awesome.

Do you.

Generationally, I think there's a thing where

my first R-rated movie was Terminator 2.

And it was when I was too young to be watching R-rated movies, but it felt like I was of a generation of dads who went, ah, my kid can watch this R-rated movie.

And it was Terminator 2 or like Under Siege.

It was something like that.

What were your guys' first R-rated movies?

So I think it's tough.

Because what's not like you.

I mean, did you have VHS?

To see if it's actually rated R.

Yeah, and that's the point I was actually going to make, is that it's tough to remember because

the rating system has changed so much since we were of that age.

You know, when we were younger, PG-13 didn't exist.

Like, I remember when PG-13 rolled out, and even the things in a movie that would classify it as PG or R have changed so much.

Like, I grew up in a time when PG movies had muted and profanity.

So it's hard for me to remember specifically what would have been my first rated R movie because there were so many that probably should have been but probably weren't.

I probably saw Porkies when I was eight.

Hell yeah.

I bet that's a PG movie.

No, I just looked it up because that's my answer.

It is rated R.

What's Caddyshack?

I'm going to look up Caddack Rolls.

I don't know the answer to Caddyshack, but

because the three that come to mind when I think of the first grown-up movies I saw are definitely Porkies,

Hots.

Do you remember that movie Hots?

That sounds familiar.

I don't know.

It's.o.t.s dot.

And it was like some titty movie about college or something.

I don't remember anything about it other than the name.

And DOS Boot.

I never saw DOS Boot.

I don't remember anything about it.

Other than there was nudity in that, too.

And I know maybe I remember it.

But like, I remember being a kid and that being on TV a lot and seeing it and seeing it was growing up.

But I think this is the first three rated R movies I remember seeing at least.

I remember going to my friend Jace's house when I was...

Oh, man.

It might have been like 11 or 12 and staying the night.

And his stepdad rented porkies for us.

And he just went, this was like,

this was like my movie when I was like your guys' age.

We're like, oh, shit, really?

And we watched it.

We're like, this movie's awesome.

This is the greatest movie I've ever seen.

Then we listened to The Offspring.

It was the greatest night of my life.

Thanks, Chase.

By the way, that movie's not awesome.

If you watch it, this is not awesome.

No, I can't imagine it's aged well.

No,

but when I was 11 years old and

my brain was smooth like a marble and I'm watching this and you don't know shit.

You're just like, I can't believe that they made this.

I can't believe that this is a movie.

You can do this.

Caddyshack is also rated R.

That's another one I saw probably way too young, probably right around the same time I saw Porky's.

And the other one I was thinking about was Revenge of the Nerds, which I looked up and is also R.

Is Meatballs rated R?

I'm going to say probably yes.

I remember, that's an early one I remember seeing.

Before Caddyshack, I think I saw Meatballs.

Why is Revenge of the Nerds rated R?

Revenge of the Nerds is a very problematic movie.

Oh, that's another one that.

I remember it being a problematic movie, but like at the time it came out to rate it R was like, I guess I've just seen the TV cut a lot meatballs is PG.

Oh shit.

Wow.

Do you remember you know the dude the like the big muscular dumb guy in meatballs that goes nerds and crosses his eyes ogre?

Yeah Next time you hang it out with my wife, she does a perfect ogre.

Really?

It's one of the reasons I married her.

Wow.

She just busted that out one day when we were at a restaurant sitting outside because somebody looked like ogre and she goes that guy looks like and I was like I fell in love with it even harder in that moment.

It's one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

It's awesome.

I feel like that's like a classic image you see all the time that many people don't know the attribution for anymore.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You know, that and like John Belushi wearing the college shirt.

Oh, yeah.

Man, I watched most of Raising Arizona yesterday because Millie had to watch it for a school thing for her film class.

When's the last time you saw that movie?

I probably haven't seen that movie in 25 years.

Yeah, it's wild.

It's still pretty good, but man, it's weirder than I remember.

It's very weird.

But then you look at it and you're like, I guess this is just, I guess we were weirder back then.

I really think we're not weird anymore.

I think in the 80s, 70s, and 80s, and 90s, we were a little weirder.

I think you had a lot more freedom for that stuff when you're making movies, like smaller budget films or like medium budget films that you don't really have anymore.

A lot more is done by like executive committee and playing the numbers.

And so you don't end up with, you know, the Cohen brothers

having a career out of making quirky movies.

It's also a wild thing in that film.

And it may just be, I'm a fucking lunatic, right?

But I've seen that movie a million times.

It came out when I was a kid.

Yeah,

you must have been a kid.

And early teens, and I've seen it a bunch.

I've seen it as an adult.

Everybody, obviously, it's a classic.

Everybody loves the Killen brothers.

And it's definitely one of their seminal films, right?

And I watched it, and I remember loving it, and I remember almost every scene from it, but there's a section, it's probably the most famous section of the movie when he's trying to get the diapers,

and

the

other dudes are chasing him, and the cops are chasing him and then Holly Hunter leaves and he's running through the yards and stuff.

But what I didn't remember is that that entire scene has cops shooting at him at houses in a grocery store at like they're literally he's running through a grocery store and every time he passes you know he's running like by the end cap a cop shoots at him in the grocery store and there's like 50 other people and i was thinking did we just accept in the 80s that cops would just fire and willy-nilly?

Like,

if that had happened in real life, 17 people would have gotten stray shot.

Right?

And I was just like, I'd never started, never, I remember being cool when I was a kid and funny, but I don't remember it being like, why would they be shooting at him

so dangerous?

Like, he runs through a house at some point, and they're shooting at him into the house, and there's like a family eating dinner and watching TV and stuff.

And all he did was steal diapers.

Yeah.

You got to get him.

It starts with diapers.

And it just makes me wonder, like, is that just, did we just accept that the the world was the Wild West back then, or was that ludicrous?

I think it was.

I think that's just what movies,

right?

Yeah.

Well, I think it's probably part of the ludicrous.

A lot of that movie is super ludicrous.

It's real.

I mean, the whole point of it is, right?

Right.

But I don't feel like that part was out of school.

No, no, that part was, like, that's what movies were like.

I mean, at that time or whatever, the language of film and, like, what's acceptable or whatever has changed a lot just in our lifetime.

And when you're talking about, like, oh, this movie getting made versus, you know, something like it not getting made anymore, I think that it's a thing where everyone's so film school brained that you have to make the most acceptable, palatable, no questions asked, no plot holes, cinema sins, bullshit type movies now that you can't do a thing where he's running from stealing diapers and this is getting like wacky or whatever because then people go like, well, look at all this stuff.

This is

look at how unbelievable.

Look at how unbelievable this is.

Oh, the movie?

yeah the movie's unbelievable yeah the movie yeah it's crazy speaking of which i just read something the other day i couldn't believe i can't i can't believe i didn't know it i just read something that i didn't peter farrelly directed green book of the farrelly brothers yeah really yeah i had no idea i didn't know that yeah i was like oh i always think of them as making like those really stupid borderline offensive films

right as opposed to like uh oscar contending like serious film you know i read something the other day that i after it was actually before i watched crazy arizona i didn't realize the Cohen brothers don't make movies together anymore.

Oh, really?

They make movies apart now.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

I think that they're coming back together to make their first movie back together in a while, but they've been apart for years.

Yeah,

I just don't pay attention to film anymore.

So,

I guess I don't either.

Yeah, so you're saying we cannot pivot this to a film podcast.

I think we'd be

behind the curve committing the ultimate cinema sin,

not knowing the directors, not knowing what's going on.

So we're up north.

Gus talked about living over here a while.

If this overpass wasn't here, you could probably see my old apartment.

Yeah, so

this isn't the domain.

This is Arbor Walker Warborough, technically, which is right across the street from the domain.

Across the street from my old apartment.

It's across the old apartment.

I just exit before the domain on Lopak.

I mean, this is where I exit for it.

I get off here and then shoot over the

shoot up over there.

And this area was really foreign to me when I first moved here.

We would come over here because I got mighty fine with you and Gus, like pretty early, me like moving here.

And this was like, oh, I didn't know this stuff was up here.

And now all you hear about is like, oh, yeah, we're going to try to build like a second downtown over here.

Yeah.

And we've talked about it on the show and everything.

But like, what do you guys think about like this whole area now?

It's funny.

If

you, you know, if you ever watch the movie Office Space, that was filmed here in Austin.

And early in the movie, there's a scene where, I believe it's the Michael Bolton character stuck in traffic.

Yes.

And that was right up over here on Breaker,

like just like the next street over from where we are.

I remember at the time thinking that that was so funny because there was nothing up here.

I was like, why the hell would there be traffic on that stretch of Breaker?

That's so stupid.

Well, now we got a David Buster's Cross Street.

But now it's like there is so much out here.

Like you said, people talk about Segging Downtown.

And I think it's good.

Having more

stuff for people to do.

I feel like a lot of the stuff out here is very...

This sounds very familiar now that I'm about to say it.

Like it's a place for all of those chain stores to go

to contain them and keep them from going other places

in the city.

That's what I was saying.

I was like, I feel like I've said that before, though.

I think it's fine.

It's whatever.

It's a place to shop.

There's not a lot of personality here, but there's not a lot of personality in most shopping centers.

The only annoyance is it's hard to get in and out of.

There's one entrance to this place.

I think this place, the only time I'll ever come up here is to to this mighty fine or to the southside market barbecue which is right at the end of this building chipotle sometimes then this southside market it's like a another like central texas chain i used to go to the one out in elgin which is a pretty quick drive east of austin but uh they opened up this one and it's just good

I come to this Home Depot sometimes if I don't find what I need at Lowe's, which is probably about half the time.

Yeah.

But

there's not very many Lowe's in Austin.

No.

No.

There's like the one in central Austin by the draft house village, and there's the one down in Sunset Valley.

There's only two I can think of.

I've made an effort to try to shop at Lowe's because of,

without getting into it, some Home Depot political contribution stuff.

But it's just fucking hard because Home Depot has like, Lowe's only has like 70% of what you need.

Sure.

And you always end up going to the Home Depot anyway.

Yeah.

I go to this giant fabric a lot.

Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

But yeah, I think that's really all I come up here for.

It's a coffee store, right?

Sprouts or natural grocery over here?

Yeah, there's a natural grocery over there.

I would go to that liquor store every now and then when I used to drink, but I haven't been there in a while.

Oh, yeah, how is your vegan burger?

Hey, guess what?

It turns out they don't have a veggie burger here.

But other than the stuff in this strip,

again, it's right next to the domain.

And it's in a weird spot to me where it's easy to pass just this strip mall in particular to get anywhere else you need to go.

Because, boy, it's easy to shoot up north past it.

It's easy to shoot over on one past it here.

Even, you know, to Jeff's point, like when you exit off Mopac to come here, you have to cut across all the lanes of the access road.

And, you know,

it's a little dangerous.

It's a little tough.

You got to be on your toes to make that turn over.

And then even when you leave, you either go out that way or I guess you could go out on the other side and end up on Breaker, but I don't think anyone goes over there.

But that's a pretty kludgy way to leave.

Yeah, that way.

It is.

You can go over there, but then it puts you, I mean, you're over by Q2 Stadium, you go that way.

Right, yeah, you have to you have to go east on breaker at that point yeah and then you're just like okay well i guess i'm gonna burn it there's q2

okay

if there's no soccer game you're screwed

uh it's it's crazy that they built the soccer stadium so far north up here i thought i think it's really close oh i i love it i'm just talking about in relation to like downtown and where everything else is and how there's nothing else near it, which is something I feel like I can say right now, but in five years I won't be able to.

Yeah, but I think that's why they did it, right?

It's like the land was available and it's still very centrally located it is also if they didn't build it here they invariably would have built it out by coda yep and that would have

i wouldn't have gone it would either have

i wouldn't have gone to soccer games it would either been coda or mainer yeah yep um i feel like

or maybe even taylor i feel like taylor's seen a lot of growth lately now it could be a place but i don't think back then yeah true but like they built it it's there There's a team.

There's not really anything to do.

I mean, there's a rail stop now.

There is, which is great because we park right there and then walk over the rail stop.

Which also, by the way, met some fans of like the animal and face jam and everything leaving the game last week.

So that was cool.

So

yo, shouts out.

But like they're trying to build it up over here, but I just don't know.

You keep skyscrapering?

Is that the plan?

I think it's going to be tough, right?

Because I think they can build taller buildings here now, but then they're also talking about doing that on Riverside over where the ballpark is slash was.

Statesman.

The Statesman area.

That's definitely going to be like a second downtown.

They're going across the river.

And then also down, way down south by like Lamar and

290, right?

Like where that Hobby Lobby and Toys R Us was.

I think they're going to want to redevelop that too with high rises.

I'll be honest,

I don't understand how the growth is going to, how it can continue.

And it seems like it's going to, right?

Like they're not slowing down over there.

If you go over to the domain right now, there's a ton of shit under construction.

They are about to break ground in the next year or two on that riverside stuff.

They're about to bury I-35.

Like they're doing a tremendous amount of development in Austin, continued and sustained.

I keep waiting for it to slow down, and it doesn't seem to be, but like half of the buildings downtown are empty.

Not residential, but commercial spaces are empty.

And I don't understand

who's going to move into all these commercial spaces that we're still building.

Well, I think, you know, they started building a lot of these, and I think now in the last

six to 12 months, you've seen, you know, a lot of, even though unemployment's super low, you've seen a lot of uncertainty in the job market.

And I think that that's affecting a lot of that commercial property growth.

It'll be interesting to see how that continues to play out this year and next year.

But I think they're trying to see where the future is going to be and trying to have it ready for any future growth.

Austin has been wildly insulated from

market conditions, but I just, I can't imagine,

it can't continue indefinitely.

Is this not mirroring what happened in like 99, where it was all boom and then bust?

Well, it's different.

Like Austin's been through a few boom and bust cycles.

I think in the, if you even go back before that, in the 80s, like when the savings and loan scandals collapsed, like Austin was really hit hard with that stuff.

In the 90s with dot-com boom, like late 90s, early 2000s, it happened again.

I don't know that we've seen that really happen.

Even the financial crisis in 08

didn't really seriously affect Austin.

Maybe more like Round Rock and Pflugerville.

I think it was said, I don't think I remember seeing on news that it was like the most protected city in America

during that time.

So it'll be interesting.

I mean, it's been a while since there's been a severe correction in the Austin, in Austin's growth.

Obviously before our time, but apparently the 80s, savings and loans was really bad here.

Do you foresee that happening then?

Do you think that there's going to be a correction?

It happens everywhere, right?

I mean, I can't imagine it doesn't.

I think it would be foolhardy to say it's never going to happen.

It has to happen at some point.

Maybe we're there.

Who knows, right?

Like, I think there's a lot of money or a lot of hope pinned on the Tesla and Samsung uh expansion here yeah and i think you know we'll have to see how that plays out and i just realize i'm like facing away from everyone it's because this under this picnic table there's like a a post or something i can't i just thought you wanted to straddled it i i'll be honest i think he's got a striking profile and i he knows that too i thought maybe he was mad at you i turned i turned to face everyone i realized i was like facing away as being very rude i thought you were being like wistfully looking at the dsw shoes you're just giving us the money shot yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah it was nice of him what is dsw now whatever uh I know the answer to that.

It is.

I know what SAS shoes are.

I don't know what DSW shoes are.

Fuck, Emily told me.

It does stand for something.

Well, it's got to.

Dealer.

I can't remember.

I can't remember.

But it has a name.

Yeah, DSW.

Designer Brands Inc.

has Designer Shoe Warehouse.

Designer Shoe Warehouse.

That's it.

Designer Shoe Warehouse Shoes.

Designer Brand Incorporated is very interesting.

What's the name of your brand?

Oh, we're Designer.

Right.

The name.

No, we're Designer.

Designer.

The brand.

Designer.

Designer brand.

Genius.

Genius move.

I love it.

My favorite is Yum Corporation.

Owners of Pepsi Pizza Hut Taco Bell.

Yeah.

Yum.

Yeah, Yum.

The reason that you have to get a Mountain Dew Baja Blast at a

Taco Bell.

I'm fucking done with Taco Bell.

I don't think yum is a word I would use to describe.

Why are you done with Taco Bell?

It just fucking sucks, and it's disappointing every time I eat there.

And there's this whole idea that we just had a bad Taco Bell, but anytime we branch out and go to a different Taco Bell, it still sucks.

It's done.

I was talking the other day with Esther about Taco Bell, and we were reminiscing about, I don't know if you remember the old

59, 79, 99 menu.

Yeah.

Yeah, back in like the early, mid-90s.

Like, they had a whole menu dedicated to items that were 59 cents, 79 cents, and 99 cents.

And now it's like, you can't get anything anywhere near that, that cheap in there.

Nah, nothing makes sense.

It's all confusing and weird.

I hate that menu.

I get so lost in the the menu trying to understand what the fuck do you do?

We used to go to that Taco Bell there off of Riverside

and order things that were not on the menu, technically, but they would still make them for you.

Yeah, they still knew what you were talking about.

The thing that I see a lot now is a meme of never forget what they took from you and you had to be there and it's the dollar menu for McDonald's where the McDouble was a dollar and the parfait was a dollar and the small fries was a dollar and two pies for a dollar.

It's like.

Do you you remember when the extra value meal came out?

It was $2.99.

It was like revolutionary.

Best.

I think in their most recent earnings report, McDonald's was talking about how

they're facing challenges because the food at McDonald's has become

expensive, right?

Like,

it's out of the price range of the average consumer.

Things have just gone so far out of whack with wages haven't kept up that it's a tough nut to crack.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I know.

Yeah, I don't know what they're going to do about that.

But yeah,

someone, God, I'm going to butcher this, but I saw someone posted a tweet last week that talked about,

I want to say it was like the seven-layer burrito.

It was a menu item at Taco Bell.

And it mentioned how when it came out in

whenever it came out, 20 years ago or something, it was 89 cents.

And now that same menu item costs $359.

And in that time frame, minimum wage has not gone up

yeah

it's a yeah it's it's nuts even this like Might Fine is

a pricey place to eat.

My burger of the month burger was $10.99 and that's before Fry's kind of drink.

I went to Emily and I went to Uncle Nikki's a couple of weeks ago.

I've seen that place.

Where is that?

Like the little

Italian place.

It's got like...

It's across from Kuras.

It's on Duval and 34th or 43rd, I guess.

Yeah, 43rd.

It used to be the La Dolce Vita.

Yeah, it was like an ice cream bar.

An ice cream place in a bar, a gelataria in a bar.

Anyway, we went there the other day just to have a just to have lunch.

Spaghetti lunch?

We had a spaghetti lunch.

It was a sandwich lunch.

I had a sandwich.

She had a sandwich.

And we split a little side salad and we each had Diet Cokes, which came cans, which is my least favorite thing at a restaurant where 12 ounce Diet Coke.

12 ounce Diet Coke in a can.

And after tip, our lunch was $80.

What?

What happened?

What the fuck?

Hang on.

I zoned out for a minute, but it sounded like you said your lunch was $80 per second.

Yeah, it was like...

What ounce shut up?

Yeah, it was like...

What the fuck?

Yeah, it was like $68 plus tip or something.

And all we had was two sandwiches, two sodas, and a salad that we split.

That's insane.

Yeah.

It's fucking expensive out there.

That's crazy.

I mean...

What the fuck?

I mean, that's, that's...

Like, I love watching movies in the theater, but it's one of the things that like holds me back from going more to like the Alamo.

It's like, man, if I go and watch this movie, it's gonna be like, it's gonna be like a hundred bucks.

And once you got the ticket and the food and everything, it's like,

I've got a big TV at home.

Yeah, I know.

Do you want to see this movie $108 worth?

Probably not.

I'll rent it

when it comes out at home.

Blaine was getting mad at me because he was asking me if I'd seen Dune 2 yet.

I was like, I'll watch it when it comes out on Max.

And he's like, what?

How could you?

I was like, I don't know.

It's not my thing.

I thought the first one one was boring.

I didn't even watch it.

I didn't bother.

I already saw, I saw the David Lynch version.

It's fun.

Oh, the perfect version.

It had sting in it.

It did have sting in it.

It did have sting in it.

He made that instead of

Jedi.

Oh, right, right.

Wow.

He got offered Jedi, and he turned it down to make Dune.

Everybody wondered, like, what would that have been like?

What would Ewoks have been like if David Lynch had directed it?

They would have been gross.

Yeah.

They would have just been gross.

They would have been terrifying.

Yeah.

Yeah.

very different movie cool gross not my paul atrates

i think ever it's nice that people are excited about doon 2 i have no interest but it's nice that people are excited yeah like i'm not mad at blaine for for liking it i'm mad at him for being mad at me for not going to watch it i don't

i decided i'm mad at blaine for liking it i don't want a hundred dollars watch it man i don't want to see anything yeah and that's fine iron claw was good and that's about it yeah iron claw was good and i cried for fucking two hours straight.

And I had to pay $100 to take Millie and I to go see Iron Claw so that I could cry and feel like shit.

I'd rather go home and watch dumb people date at the beach.

Well, he goes home and puts on YouTube, searches Cool Vids, and then she's

searches Football in the Crotch.

Cool Vids is Football in the Crotch.

I'm up to season 33 of The Simpsons.

It's just like wild.

Mo's engaged?

Is he who?

A new person?

Maya?

I don't remember.

He has like a...

Oh, he's engaged to Maya.

He had a girl.

There was an episode where he had a girlfriend five seasons ago, maybe in the late 20s, that was a little person.

Then they ended up breaking up at the end of the episode, and I guess she comes back.

And now they're engaged.

I'm like, is Moe going to get married?

Mo?

That's kind of like his whole shtick is being totally, entirely unlikable.

We've got stories for years.

Moe's got probably my favorite moments in The Simpsons.

Like that one where he and Lisa become friends, and he's like,

I'm not dirt.

I'm better than dirt.

Well, I'm not that fancy store about dirt.

I can't compete with that.

Oh, Jesus.

Like, he's such a great.

I thought you could say the scene where he's like, I don't like you.

You don't like you and you don't like you.

And it looks like I don't like you and you don't like me.

I like you.

I really see me.

Well, I like you too.

So that's the line that I think of when I think of Mo.

I think that's so fun.

What a perfect line.

I like you.

First, that was kid gorgeous.

And then that was kid presentable.

And then it was kid gruesome.

And then that was kid Mo.

That's another great one.

Oh, man.

We should talk about Mighty Fine a little bit.

What is there to say?

I already said it.

It's fucking great.

So this is a burger episode,

not a coffee one today, just for some scheduling.

So we're like, oh, let's go get a burger.

Immediately hit with Mighty Fine.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I mean, that was a quick reaction.

I've been waiting to do it.

Looking for an excuse.

It's a fantastic burger.

I mean, it is like...

Mighty Fine and Hilbert's are like top tier for me.

Like the kind of burger I want.

It's like scratches that burger itch so perfectly.

They've got the system down.

It's run like a Rudy's.

Everything's like super efficient.

They got the great hand washing station.

Love that clean hands machine.

Yeah, but they don't have a picture of you.

So they have pictures all over some of the windows.

And I used to be on one of these pictures.

They took me down.

I mean, if you say so, man, who am I?

I used to have an iPad set up right over there when they first opened.

You could take a selfie with it.

And I guess that's where they got all these photos from.

I feel like I came here with some Rooster Teeth people, and a few of us were up there by the door over here.

I think it was by the the door here.

Fuck, I can't remember.

It's been so long, but we used to be there.

We're gone now.

If you say so, I mean, who am I to argue?

If you're a listener and you go to Mighty Fine, look at the pictures.

Tell me if I'm there.

Good luck.

He looked for 30 minutes straight and couldn't find anything.

This was a really long time.

We were waiting for our food, and you got up and went, I'm going to go try to find myself.

And Jeff just went, I'm just going to wait for our food.

And then he's like, well, it's not over here on this wall.

It was on the other wall.

I got to go over there.

I can't remember.

I'll take some pictures of you searching.

It's fine.

Okay, good.

good you're good it's like encrypted you can post the pictures it really was all the comments would be like wow gus is wearing shorts

it is warm a shirt thanks it's a simmons color yeah it's nice oh that's fun yeah i have another one that's griff color i don't wear it as much is that red versus blue thing

i'm simmons you're griff i understand so what'd you guys get uh i i normally get the classic half-pound burger today i got the junior quarter pound burger just because it's a little later in the day like my eating i feel like my eating schedule is a little off i hadn't eaten today.

I usually get the junior two because the classic's fucking big, but I hadn't eaten yet today, so I got the classic with cheese, bacon, and jalapenos.

I try to get the same burger everywhere we go.

So basically just like all the trim, trimmings.

No mayonnaise, of course, because I'm not fucking disgusting.

So that's what I got.

Bacon, cheese, burger, with jalapenos.

I got cheese and jalapenos.

No bacon.

That's good.

But I got

mayo and mustard.

You were getting the vegan burger.

I was going to, but they were sold out.

They were sold out.

The vegan burger was just a hot ticket, so it was gone.

It wasn't even listed on the menu anymore.

It was so gone.

I think it was the burger of the month last month, I think.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

That's what it was.

I got the burger of the month this month.

You probably just stick to the regular burger if you're.

There's a reason the main menu is the main menu.

I really like Mighty Fine.

I just felt like rolling the dice.

I got to stop doing that.

Yeah, don't do that.

Get what you know.

They have crinkle fries.

And at the table, they have that Lowry seasoning salt, which I never use otherwise.

But here, it's just like it goes so well on the crinkle fries it's like perfect I can't hear Lowry's seasoning salt without thinking Mike laughs

every time

yeah I mean it's phenomenal it's a fantastic burger it's like if you're ever in town you've got to go there if you want a hamburger

I think there's three locations

I feel like I'm forgetting one though I'll look it up

I just don't need I mean

I don't think it's a big deal either way.

No, no.

We have to see if Gus is right.

Because I can only think of three, but but I feel like I've seen one somewhere else.

Do you think there's any outside of Texas?

Holy moly.

Do they have a lot of five?

There's five.

There's five.

There's one down south.

That's the Sunset Valley one, right from Brody.

There's one here.

There's one north

around Cedar Park.

Round Rock.

That's probably the one by Ikea.

And then one at 130 and 79.

Oh, that's like on Huddo almost.

Yeah.

Way out there.

Oh, that's where the second top notch is.

Speaking of which, I did something,

was it this past weekend?

The weekend before.

This was this past weekend.

I did something I've never done before.

Okay.

They're very relevant to this podcast.

I went to downtown Round Rock.

How was it?

And that's very idyllic, cute.

Yeah, I've been there.

And

when I was there, I was having dinner out there with my wife.

And I thought, I wonder how far we are from...

the round rock

and my wife was like you're shit you're fucking with me right there is no round rock.

I was like, No, there is a round rock.

I was like, Oh, we're right by it.

Let's uh, let's like, like, look, I looked on the map, like, there's a park or something.

Like, let's drive over there and look at the round rock.

There is no park.

It's a the entire thing's ripped up.

I think they're rebuilding the park.

It's all like excavation machines.

And you can drive over a bridge and like look out one of the windows and see the round rock because it's like in the middle of a river.

Uh-huh.

It's so underwhelming.

You have to stop calling it the round rock.

Is it round rock?

No.

Well, that's the name.

That's how you find it on Google Maps.

You type the round rock.

It's bullshit.

The people who settled round rock are fucking dumb.

Period.

Listen, this was back in the 1800s.

They didn't know what round was.

They didn't have round technology yet.

Lower polygon count.

All they thought round was was sometimes tree grow up and in circle, and they go, that's close enough.

Jeff, I have to show you a picture of this.

I'd love to see that.

You've never been?

So you've never, you've lived here a long time.

You've never seen

it.

i've been to downtown round rock too i've just never thought to see the round rock i can't believe i didn't show you they have a replica of the round rock

at dell diamond why in dead center in center field past center field they have a replica of the round rock

uh yeah it's um art incredible remember

they named a city after this They saw this and they went, that's what it's called.

That's a city.

Oh.

That's it.

You can see it in the river.

You can drive over the bridge and look out.

They'd be like, there it is.

800 of those on the hike and bike cats.

As you get on to Barton Springs.

That's what the fuck I'm saying.

When I found out what the round rock is, I got so...

I'm still mad.

I think that's bullshit.

That's pretty bullshit.

That's...

Here's another picture.

It's not round.

Yeah.

It's just a fucking rock.

Yeah.

If the city was called round, but let's look at it from the top.

Can we see it from the top?

It looks kind of like it could be round.

It's like a disc.

Why don't they call it disc rock then?

See, it's got a plaque.

What are you complaining about?

Okay, that's stupid.

I told you.

I told you.

Yes, I think.

I think her reaction is very similar to Hers right now.

When I found out about it, I was so mad.

I could not believe that that's what the fuck it was.

Didn't take much to impress people back in the 80s.

No, that's what I'm saying.

It was a long time ago.

Somebody got kicked in the head by a donkey and they went, this is the round rock.

You know, it was like a marketing thing, right?

Like pre-internet, pre-like mass communication.

It was like, yeah, you want to move to a town that has like a round rock?

Whoa, that sounds cool.

I saw, I heard my neighbor once saw a pineapple.

I'll one-up them by going to look at a round rock.

I think the thing that gets me to is the

AAA baseball team that's there, the Round Rock Express.

Why did they name themselves after a train?

Because it's affiliated with Nolan Ryan.

What?

That was his nickname, The Express.

The Ryan Express.

Right, but it's named after.

But it's not...

The Express.

It's not called the Round Rock Trains.

It's the Round Rock Express.

But the train is...

Is the train named after Nolan Ryan?

Nolan Ryan was named after the train.

Nolan Ryan's named after a train?

Yeah, Nolan Ryan Express.

I get that.

It was his nickname because he threw it so fast.

You want to talk about 80s and 90s baseball?

I'm in.

Okay, see, the thing, I don't follow it anymore.

I don't.

It would be fine if they didn't theme themselves and go, like, there it is, the train, and do all the train stuff with it.

If they were just like, I don't know, it was about throwing the ball fast.

That would be a different thing.

They have this stupid fucking dog dress up like a train conductor.

I hate him so much.

I'm going to kill that dog.

I got, I got put on,

they like banned me on Twitter for a little bit for saying I was going to kill the dog.

Oh, my God.

I was going to beat him up.

I mean, dress up like a train conductor.

I hate him.

Round Rock Express.

Everything about it bothers me.

Be named after the rocks, then.

I don't know.

I hate it.

Well, there you go.

Anyway, what do you think about Mighty Fine?

What do you hate it?

Mighty Fine's a 10.

It's solid.

Hilbert should have got a 10.

I don't know if I gave it a 10.

It should.

Hilbert's and Mighty Fine are the only 10s, in my opinion.

Wow.

I get a 9.5.

Okay.

I do think there's a better burger in town, but it's damn near there.

I think it's like an 8-5.

I like it.

I like the simplicity of the menu, too.

There's not a million different things.

You got the burger of the month, which is like the one

non-core burger thing.

I think they might have a hot dog, too.

They do that.

They've got a crispy chicken sandwich, but it's not like a crazy big menu.

No.

It's like, do you want a half-pound burger or a quarter-pound burger?

That's essentially it.

Fries or onion rings.

Oh, or you can get frings.

They have a hat that says fries.

Oh, they do have frings.

Yeah.

They have a frings hat.

They also have a hat that says MF for Mighty Fine, which I really kind of like.

That's pretty cool.

Yeah.

Oh, it's the MF right there.

Hell yeah.

I'm into it.

All right.

There you go.

That's Mighty Fine.

Let's get into Anarchy Question or two.

This is from Elated Dorito.

Third wave coffee.

How about fourth wave?

Oh, they're from the future.

They found some fucking fourth wave coffee.

That came from space.

Yep.

Like the scientists picked it up on.

How long do you think until you eat, we

experience fourth wave coffee?

It's got to be close.

It has to be soon.

I think we're looking at 2030.

Yeah.

I don't feel like I'm anywhere near close to it.

Yeah.

We've got a ways to go.

I think it's 2030.

Is it weekly?

They received signal of it at the Odyssebo Observatory in Puerto Rico, and it broke the dish.

That was our first contact with fourth wave coffee.

It came from outer space.

This is from user Justin Tylen

Tyler and Allen.

Sorry, your name's too long.

He's paracetamol in the UK.

Gonna be in Austin for a few hours.

He's gonna try a little deli for lunch, but they're closed on Sundays.

They ended up going to Hilbert's.

They gave it an 8.5, very simple burger, but they find a way to make it very tasty, very cheap, too.

Lovely people working.

Yeah, they're so awesome.

And you're there for the atmosphere, baby.

Yeah.

8.5, I think this person needs to recalibrate their burger sensors.

Oh, pretty good.

You're pissing Gus off, dude.

Come on.

I'm getting heated here.

I'm getting hot.

Because it's 88 degrees right now.

Yeah, yeah, we gotta pack this thing up.

We'll end on this one from

at Andy Zoltke

7.

Hey, it's Andy Zach.

You guys mentioned the Texas Chili Parlor.

Has it been more crowded after it was featured in Deathproof?

Love the podcast.

I assume that that's the reason.

I don't.

It's always been kind of a

I think it's just always been an Austin staple.

Yeah, really.

I don't think it has.

I don't think it has.

Maybe some tourism went that way for a while, but also, let's be honest, Deathproof wasn't a huge movie.

Yeah.

That's true.

I bet Death Proof didn't move the needle at all for them.

Interesting.

I bet it was a bigger movie in Austin than anywhere else.

Yeah.

You never hear people pining for it.

No.

It probably did more.

Midnight Deathpoof showings.

Yeah, yeah, probably did more for feet than it did for Texas Chili Parlor.

They're more featured, like feet featured, yeah.

Feet featured F-E-E-T both times in that movie than Texas Chili Parlor.

Booker Russell ate the nachos, and I have a friend who went there and he got the nachos.

He wanted to be more cold.

Were they ice cold?

Because that's kind of my experience with Texas Chili Parlor here.

We've given it 15 more years.

What's cooler than being cool?

Ice cold Texas Chili Parlor.

Young, you should have got the special, dummy.

That'll do it for Anima.

We're getting cooked in the sun.

If you want to send us a question, you can at Animo Podcast on Twitter and on Instagram, r slash Animo Podcast, the subreddit we do not run, but let us know if you stop in for us and you try any of our NFTs.

And that sounds like if your friend is hearing it, like we're selling something.

We're not.

It's not for tourists.

Selling information.

I do like hearing from the people who come and visit and try some of that stuff.

I do like hearing their feedback on the place we've been to.

Yeah.

As do I.

Yep.

But if you want to get some more information on this episode 77, or it might be listed as episode 78.

I need to renumber all of them.

Yeah, you check it out at anarchymeanything.com.

Sign the guest book unless you're a robot.

And then when you go, well, I'm not a robot, I did this.

I'm really reevaluate where you are in life and if you're a robot, because you're a robot.

We were telling Elisa about the website the other day, and she's like, is that what ANMA stands for?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

Like it's just incredulous.

So disappointed.

Join the clubs.

She just went, what the fuck?

I mean, she's right.

You notice notice how there's no glass ketchup containers anymore?

You never have to beat on a ketchup container anymore.

When was the last time you had to beat on a ketchup container at a restaurant?

I don't know.

My wife has a thing where she'll spin it around in a circle three times, and then she's like, it's perfect ketchup every time.

You don't have to.

She can't even do that anymore because there's nowhere to do it because they don't have that.

There was like a whole ad campaign.

Like you would hit your knife.

They would tell you to hit your knife at a specific place on the ketchup bottle to get it to come out.

Well, if you have any ketchup memories, let us know.

But I think that'll do it for Anma this week.

Again, anarchymeanthing.com.

Go get get a shirt and all kinds of good stuff.

Uh, any wise words or fine thoughts for the people at home?

Um, you'd a burger, life or short, eat a burger.

Thanks for listening to the podcast.

Yeah, we appreciate it.

Friendos, we'll see you next time.

This might be the end of Jeff.

Is this the end of Jeff as we know him?

His last recorded words.

Okay, bye.

Mike and Alyssa are always trying to outdo each other.

When Alyssa got a small water bottle, Mike showed up with a four-liter jug.

When Mike started gardening, Alyssa started beekeeping.

Oh, come on.

They called a truce for their holiday and used Expedia Trip Planner to collaborate on all the details of their trip.

Once there, Mike still did more laps around the pool.

You were made to outdo your holidays.

We were made to help organize the competition.

Expedia, made to travel.
