Ep 236: Finn Wolfhard

James, huge news from the world of off-menu and indeed the world of the world.

Yes.

Ever heard of the Royal Albert Hall?

I have.

We've done live shows there.

And guess what?

We're doing more live shows there next year.

Sure, a lot of them are sold out already.

But we thought, hey, throw these guys a bone.

Let's put on one final Royal Albert Hall show in that run.

The show will be on Monday, the 16th of March.

It's going to be a tasting menu, a returning guest coming back, receiving the menu of another previous guest.

Those shows have been a lot of fun.

We cannot wait to do them live.

Who will we pull out of our little magic bag?

You'll have to come along on the 16th of March to find out.

If I'm correct in thinking, presale tickets go on pre-sale on the 10th of September.

Pre-sale tickets are 10th of September at 10 a.m.

And then the general sale is 12th of September at 10 a.m.

So if you miss out on the pre-sale, don't forget general sale is only two days later.

The day in between is for reflecting.

Get your tickets from royalalberthall.com Hall.com or offmenupodcast.co.uk.

Welcome to the Off-Menu podcast, taking the Lasagna Sheets of Humor, the Bolognese Source of podcasting.

I wonder what we're making.

Chopping up the lasagna sheets until they're thin ribbon pasta.

Oh, what?

Like spaghetti, mixing it with the bolognese, and that's the podcast, spaghetti bolognese.

Ha!

Tricked you.

A gamble there.

Never try and predict him.

My name is James A Caster.

Together, we own a dream restaurant, and we invite a guest in every single week and ask them their favourite ever start and make course dessert, side dish, and drink, not in that order.

And this week, our guest is

Finn Wolfhard.

Finn Wolfhard, brilliant, brilliant actor, of course.

What an actor.

What an actor.

What a presence on screen.

What a guy.

Oh, Stranger things are you kidding me it are you kidding me again ghostbusters anyone this kid's got the world at his feet worked with some uh amazing actors as well always uh brilliant ensemble when fin's involved and then unfortunately it's uh dropped off a cliff recently uh with ghostbusters yeah his his his career yes is about to take the nose finn's not aware of this yeah but his career is about to take a massive nosedive because he's we call it the cinderella effect yep so As soon as you share the screen with Acaster, you're in big trouble.

That's why you're sticking to podcasts.

Yeah, absolutely.

That's definitely why.

You refuse to be on the screen with me?

Yeah.

Because you know that that'll be the end.

Even when we've started filming videos of the podcast to release video clips, there was a big debate over that.

Because I thought it's the end of my career if I'm on screen with Acaster.

Yeah, that's why you never see us in a two-shot.

No.

It's always a single shots.

Well, you know.

No, you're very good, James.

Yeah,

I am great.

And Finn Wolfhardt is brilliant.

And we're very excited to have him on the podcast.

However, if Finn does choose a secret ingredient, a green ingredient that we deem to be unacceptable, we will be forced to kick him out of the James restaurant with no dinner.

And this week, the secret ingredient is eggs with maple syrup.

Maple syrup from season one of Stranger Things.

Yeah.

He dumps it on there.

He loves it.

Yeah.

People are not impressed by it.

Also, the other characters.

Finn's Canadian, so maple syrup.

The perfect link.

Yeah, maybe we should ask that if that was like what was some of the thinking behind that.

Is Canadian roots met with the American eggs, classic American eggs?

You've done this before, James, when you've

said we should ask the guest something, even though we're recording the intro after we've recorded the episode.

And I know for a fact that we didn't ask him that.

He's right here.

Yeah.

Was that like a whole thing about American eggs?

Was it American eggs and Canadian syrup?

Is you're talking about you coming to Hollywood?

Are you saying this is this a part of my story?

Is that why you poured the maple syrup on the eggs?

Yes, yes, yes.

Yeah, I wrote that in because I told them that this will be one day when I'm old, gray, dying on a bed, I'll be able to look back and go, I did it perfect.

I love the idea of you getting them to write something in in Stranger Things in season one when you were what, 15?

Oh, 12.

12.

12.

12 years old.

Write this in for my story.

Yeah, well, yeah.

It was part of it.

I wanted to sort of, I wanted to kind of lay breadcrumbs from what my career would become.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Then.

These guys are smart.

It's all there.

It's all in strange.

So there we go.

A little sneak peek of Finn's voice there.

If you want to hear more of Finn's voice,

just keep listening because we're about to interview for an hour.

This is the off-menu menu of Finn Wolfhard.

Welcome, Finn, to the Dream Restaurant.

Hello.

Welcome, Finn Wolfhard, to the Dream Restaurant.

We've been expecting you for some time.

I imagined you coming out of like a big, you know, one of those cakes, those big cakes.

Oh, yeah.

And then coming out of the middle, you know, they're like fake

cakes.

Yeah, yeah.

That would be good.

Yeah.

Isn't that like a sort of 80s stripper thing?

I'm thinking specifically about

the film Under Siege.

Never seen it.

This is like a very specific Under Siege.

One of our youngest guests.

Bursting Out of a That's what it is.

All right.

Actually, Finn, probably not.

He's watched.

You also have a lot of movies, don't you?

Yeah, but I haven't seen Underseed.

Yeah, you should watch Understood.

Is that like a Segal type?

Yeah.

No, it's not.

Is it really?

It is a Segal film.

Yeah.

Little bit of trivia for you.

I've never seen it, but it's been on VHS in my parents' house since I was born.

So no one's seen it.

Except your parents, maybe.

Did they rent it or why?

No one returned it.

This is quite weird to me that they have it because it's not neither of their taste in films.

Right.

But it was always.

They rent it every week.

Yeah, yeah.

Well, I guess, yeah, back when you rented stuff from the library.

Yeah.

Is that a thing in your

lives?

Videos from the library.

Yeah, yeah.

Maybe they rent Under Siege at the library.

We used to rent videos from just the corner shop.

So

they just have a tiny little section at the back.

Oh, really?

The videos and I used to go and see.

The Under Siege section.

The Under Siege section.

Just go and look at the back of Under Siege.

Yeah.

Yeah.

What kind of cake would you like some jump out of?

Yeah.

oh of someone else's jump out of if someone if someone james if james is jumping out of a cake or who right or

or a dream person to jump out of the cake for sure yeah oh yeah okay yeah yeah who would you most like to jump out of a cake nelson mandela okay yeah great what kind of cake would you like to jump out of uh i'm a red velvet fan i feel like oh yeah yeah a good cream cheese icing i feel like well maybe not to be surrounded by maybe like a like a german chocolate it's a very specific yeah kind of chocolate that i picked but i feel like that would be best is that like a dark sort of like a like a dark chocolate yeah yeah yeah which i don't even like dark chocolate but i i i think that there's sometimes for whatever reason the cake can sort of break that up i don't know why you're inhaling it you'll be breathing it in for a while see this is the thing do you want a cake you like

because if you've got to sit in there for a while and burst out of it is the temptation not going to be nibble nibble through that eat your way out like the insects in the giant peach right eat your way out yeah yeah yeah Because I think if I saw someone bursting out of a cake, I'd be surprised and quite impressed.

If I saw someone slowly eating their way out of a cake, I'd just be quite disgusted.

Be like Ace Ventura, me cutting the rhino's butt.

Yeah.

Yeah, exactly.

Man, we're really going back to undersea Jason Ventura.

We are old men films.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

That's what we got.

Sorry, I forgot.

We don't know any of these newfangled films.

Yeah, these new

what?

These new freaking Netflix films.

Yeah, these new jobs.

You can't work any of that.

TikToks.

We have no idea who you are.

Someone told us about who I was.

Your little nephew told me who I was.

And you're like, ah, this

guy might fucking be on the podcast.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, that's what how he recommends people to.

Should we fucking get him up?

So a German dark chocolate cake can sit in there for a bit.

Yeah.

Burst out of that.

You'll feel okay.

Yeah.

I think it'll also, I think seeing someone burst out of a chocolate cake, I think is sort of a, it's exciting.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Absolutely.

Yeah.

And final question on this yeah whose birthday would you like it to be if you're bursting out of the cake whose birthday do you want it to be and if you like we could narrow it down to like we could say Paul Rudd

yeah just Paul Rudd

talking about it was Paul Rudd's birthday name drop it was James and I are doing a film with Paul Rudd and one of the producers asked me and another uh person on the cast mechanic to sing like a song for him and like uh i just felt like i just like i didn't know if i wanted to do that.

I don't know if really Paul wanted wanted it.

I think

he definitely didn't.

I think it would have been a really sweet thing, I think, on like their part, but I sort of felt like Paul definitely just wanted to get out of there.

Yeah, because he just like, you know, I feel like once you get to a certain age, you're like, I mean, I'm 20, but I feel like also when you get to a certain age, you're like, I don't, we don't have to talk about this for a long time.

My birthday was.

Let alone do you want like a song to be sung.

Yeah.

Unless you're like their kid or whatever, and it was like their idea.

I think it was a good call on your McKenna's part to not do it.

Oh, so you didn't do this.

No, we didn't do it in the end.

Also, I didn't even get my, like, I didn't even, my work schedule didn't even line up, so I wasn't even there for it.

You would have had to come in to do that.

I would have had to come in early to sing that song.

And then I would have waited a few hours while James did his scene for my next scene.

So I would have just come in for the song.

And the song was Happy Birthday by the Beatles,

which McKenna didn't know.

Yeah.

So it would have been.

Also,

when they bought the cake out, they played the song just over speakers.

And Paul didn't look happy about that.

So I don't think he would have loved it.

It was like, oh, come on, guys.

Come on.

I don't think if you to have gone like, today is your birthday.

I don't think he would have loved it.

So what's he doing if you burst out of a big cake?

Yeah.

Oh, so yeah.

So Paul is the...

I think, no, he wouldn't like it.

And I think that's the revenge, sort of.

I didn't get to sing the song.

Yeah.

So now I'm going to do that.

Really make him feel uncomfortable.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

jump out of the cake well i think that's good i think that's good so it's you german dark chocolate for my birthday

so more specific yeah yeah also all i could think yesterday when you guys told me that you'd been asked to sing it i just thought oh man i because you you guys have done and filmed with him already you know him i was like it'd be really funny if i did it yeah yeah yeah yeah like if it was like I've known because like McKenna had a guitar and everything and was going to do it with accompaniment but if I just did it a cappella just me also because I've never known you to sing anything sincerely.

Yeah.

So every time you sing it, it's always like, happy birthday, dude.

Yeah.

And you have to do it like that to stop yourself being embarrassed.

Yeah.

I think we're a few steps closer to like, James, you play, you play drums.

Oh, we should bring a big drum kit in for you so that you can play with us.

So for someone else's birthday,

when it's Ackroyd's birthday.

Oh, oh, a big crystal head pick drum.

That's the only way Ackroy's going to be interested in the whole thing.

Of course.

Is if somehow it's a big advert for crystal head.

Yeah, that's what it will be.

That's what it is.

Happy birthday to the head.

It's a classic head.

You've got a voice I have to put on.

Are you a foodie Finn?

Do you like food?

I do.

I really do.

I'm becoming more of a...

of a foodie as I've getting older.

It's the same.

I mean, you get to a certain age.

I think maybe 16 is the cutoff where you're like, maybe maybe I should stop eating McDonald's

all the time.

You know what I mean?

Or like, maybe I should stop.

And you're like, oh, there's other food out there that you can eat.

And it's, you know, better.

What was your go-to McDonald's order back in the day?

McChicken.

I was never a big, I've never been a Big Mac fan.

Don't like the sauce.

That's a hot take on this.

Yeah, that's quite controversial.

I don't think you realize what you're throwing out there.

Sorry, I don't like that.

There's a lot of people listening to this are going to be like, what the?

Well, guess what?

I'm not on Twitter.

So you just fucking

complain into an echo chamber that I won't see.

That's for you guys, not for me.

I was telling them.

You've been working with James a while now.

Do you know his McDonald's order?

We haven't been to McDonald's yet.

James?

Every time McDonald's comes up, I make James tell the guest his order so I can see the look on their face.

Can I guess what it is that you're doing?

You can if you want.

We love guessing games.

Are you a filet of fish guy?

I would respect that more if that was his order.

I get less.

It's less than that.

Yeah.

It's lesser than that.

It's lesser than the fillet.

People are very angry about this.

What is always like a plain cheeseburger?

No nothing, no anything.

That would also probably make people less angry than what my actual order is.

I go in, I get the grilled chicken wrap with a bag of carrots and a Diet Coke.

Yeah.

You see my face?

Yeah.

You see carrots?

Yeah.

It's like at a McDonald's.

So here's the thing.

It's also like, it's fine.

I mean, it's like, it's one of those things that's fine, but go anywhere else then.

Get a bag of carrots from anywhere.

Or go to Nando's at that point.

If you're getting grilled chicken, yeah.

Context.

Sure.

I basically only go to McDonald's when it's quite late after a gig.

We're like stuck in an airport.

And I'm just like,

I just know that I'll feel bad if I eat something really unhealthy.

And so I get the healthiest thing I can at McDonald's.

I know that doesn't excuse it.

But I feel like I want, you know, I'm not going for a normal McDonald's trip and getting that.

It sucks because it's like, you're like, it's not like you're

allowing yourself to...

Because every time I go to McDonald's, I know i'm committing a crime against humanity yeah so but i kind of i let myself feel that yeah and i'm like oh i'm so bad you know i do the whole i'm so bad thing that's so interesting that you don't let yourself sort of just go for it yeah you got to lean into it if you're a mcdonald's if i'm sober you see if i'm drunk well it's whatever yeah then i'm going i'm two bags of carrots oh i'm going double carrot

ranchy

We always start with still or sparkling water, Finn.

Still, always.

I've I've never been a sparkling and that's gonna be a huge that's gonna be oh get ready for the Twitter debacle on that.

I've never been a huge huge sparkling water fan.

I just yeah, I don't like the way it makes me feel.

How does it make you feel?

It's sort of euphoric.

No, I'm just kidding.

No, I

just don't like the intense physique.

It also doesn't feel like I'm getting hydrated at all.

And people say, I understand and people say it's like, oh, it hydrates you just as much as water or whatever.

It doesn't feel like that to me.

You know, I don't know if it's subjective.

it's not well it feels like if there's that many bubbles in it surely air is taking up space where there could be water yeah so it's not going to hydrate you i think my brain knows i think intellectually i know that and so that's why i'm choosing the still yeah that's it yeah i always i always choose the still i think you know generally speaking more people be on your side for the still water yeah even though it's pretty split on like who's chosen it on the podcast but i think generally you're more mad at the people if you're choosing the still water yeah right yeah I mean, I think

I think it's the fancier thing to do when you when you pick sparkling.

Yeah.

I think that's the fancier thing.

You want anything in the water?

No, I'm a plain guy.

I'm a plain plain Jane.

I like water, nothing on it.

Yeah.

Nothing on it, nothing in it.

No ice.

No, I take ice.

I like, once in a while, some mint, some mint sometimes.

You ever go check into like Marriott, you know, like a courtyard Marriott and they have in the lobby, they have like the lemon mint water lemon cucumber mint water and you're just like oh this is great i don't know if any if these three should go together at all but

but they're all together so i'll take it like i love the lemon and mint thing as soon as there's a cucumber in one of those things i want to tip it all out onto the floor i think

you're anti-cucumber no i love cute i love cucumber as a food but as soon as you put it in water the opposite really cucumber as a as a food i'll take them in a california roll that's an interesting that's the only thing i'll take them in i don't know why because i'm a child but it's the really only thing that I would take them in it's a California roll now that's sushi right yeah but like no but it's not real I mean it's like some fucking American some guy from California probably was like wrapped crab in rice and was like oh this is Japanese food now

it's crab is it yeah imitation I think it's imitation crab usually is it because it's disguised in the California roll or exactly so it's like they've snuck it they've snuck it in

I can hide it with some soy sauce yeah if it wasn't in there do you think you'd notice?

What do you mean?

If you were blindfolded.

Oh, yeah.

And I got a California roll and I took all the cucumber out of it and I went, here's your California roll thing.

I'd still notice it.

I think it's just because of the...

There's just something about...

Maybe the consistency is better.

I don't like cucumber when it's by itself.

There's something kind of slimy.

Texturally, it works in a California roll.

Bit of a snap, bit of a crunchy.

Exactly.

Exactly.

There's something there.

There's something there.

If it's like, if it's very cucumber forward,

then

there's a bit of aversion, I would say.

You're definitely a foodie if you're using phrases like cucumber forward.

Yeah, yeah.

It's quite cucumber forward.

This cake is quite cucumber forward.

Actually, I changed my answer.

I would pop out of a cucumber cake.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Of course you are.

The wettest cake in the year for that.

You'll be crawling through that like Andy Dufran.

Take ages.

Do you want that water from the hotel?

That lemon mint and the...

Do you want that as your...

That's reserved.

that's reserved for the hotel lobby i think i don't want this for your dream no

like you say plain jane this this yeah plain still water which i'd love to hear you say to someone in a restaurant by the way when they come over to take your order just go i'm a plain jane yeah i'm a plain jane

like a bag of carrots

and a chicken wrap grilled chicken wrap nothing on it

that's me plain jane that's what they call me mcdonald's yeah do you ever go crazy and put the carrots in the in the wrap ed cut this is not sodom and gomorrah

cut this

what the hell are you talking about this is my daughter's at one in the morning after the gig

you're not sitting in

now are you no i'm not sitting in i'm not i i'm i'm eating them in the uber if if the driver you're not well you're what if the driver permits me hang on so you ask have you ever eaten in an uber fin no no psychopath i don't what yes why can't you eat in an uber well because you're in the uber what's your rating if you're eating in ubers What is it generally?

What's the kind of average Uber rating?

For you?

Well, for me.

Well,

I was right up in the high fours for ages, like

bobbing around the fives and then friggin'.

I left, left Nish Kumar in it and let him carry on

in my Uber to get to his house.

And he made the Uber driver stop at an M ⁇ S

freaking service station.

And then the Uber driver marked us down.

And I was right down in the low fours.

And I thought, who cares?

I'm going to start eating my carrots.

Yeah.

Nish compromised my score.

Is it possible to be in the twos twos before your uber just gets taken off?

Surely, no, no one's ever been under like a 4.8.

Yeah, yeah.

I feel like that's because no one's going to pick you up if they can see you already at the minute.

Yeah, yeah, we're checkouts in the minute.

The worst thing is, is now you can look at the more specific statistics so you can see how many like fives and ones you've got and stuff.

All right.

Oh, that's worse than I thought.

Okay.

Mine's worse than I thought.

Yeah.

4.84.

Ooh.

That's pretty bad.

I'm just going to give a deal for

4.78.

Finn.

What?

4.84.

Hey, all right.

So that's, I feel like a 4.84 is usually, it's just because sometimes I'm late.

Oh,

I'm 4.78 here.

Yeah, boy.

How is that happening to me?

Little carrot boy.

Oh, yeah, it's because I'm eating the carrot.

I said to pick up this fucking carrot boy.

That's the thing.

Uber drivers are,

you know, they're coming together.

I'm scrolling down here.

There's a load of fives.

Actually, I think this is what I've given them.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You're desperate for this, for you to get a five.

So you're just...

God damn it.

Yeah.

Well, bit of a shame, James.

That is a shame.

Pop-doms or bread.

Pop-doms or bread, Finn Wolf hunter.

Pop-a-bombs or bread.

I don't even know what the first one is.

Yeah, yeah.

So bread, first of all.

Bread is bread.

But yes, bread.

What is the other thing?

Pop-a-doms.

Have you been for any Indian food while you've been in the UK?

I have.

At the beginning of the meal, did they bring out some massive, crispy sort of...

Oh, interesting.

Yes, I do know those.

Okay, yes, yes, yes, yes that's them uh still bread yes I thought it might still break did you go to brick lane in the end and get a curry on brick lane I have gotten curry but I did not go to any of those places on Brick Lane fair enough we told me

it was going to brick lane and I just said

James texted go to any

of those curry places that is a terrible tip what did you say you said no you didn't say that you said I said google best curry on brick lane and go there

yeah yeah

because they're all

Which is kind of a mean thing to tell someone to do.

Yeah.

Also, when I said it, I thought, not only is that not helpful, but also...

It's like you're trolling him.

You're wasting a meal.

Also, Ed would be completely appalled of it.

Yes.

Which he is now, because Ed would know where to go.

No, what you also said was that there's no best curry place in Brick Lane.

Yeah, yeah.

That's what you said.

There's so many.

Well, that was the reason, I think, why you told me.

Yeah, I said,

it doesn't matter.

I don't know what it currently is.

I don't know what currently is the best curry on Brick Lane.

It used to be whatever.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

So I thought, just go wherever people are coming and say it is the best.

Yeah.

Yeah, go to Brick Lane's.

Google best curry.

And you know what I did?

You know what I did?

I didn't.

Yeah, good.

Because you didn't.

I didn't do that.

Because

I feel like I would have done that.

And I wouldn't have done that.

Also.

So you would have had that thought and then just.

And then went, why would I do that?

Why would you just ask a friend if they know a good

curry place?

That's like the first thing you start with.

I don't go to a friend to say, hey, give me a recommendation.

And they say Google it.

Because I start at Google.

Hey,

how do I look up something on the Instagram?

I don't know.

Google it.

It's like asking your friend to drive you to the hospital and they tell you to get an Uber.

Yeah, yeah.

Not in my mind.

Yeah, yeah.

Not even makes it to the hospital.

Look,

it can't.

So what if I have to go to hospital again?

Yeah, that's how it works.

As long as you have, yeah, that's how it works.

What did carrots give you?

Good eyesight?

Yeah, good eyesight or whatever?

Yeah, live forever.

Make you go orange if you eat too many.

And And that's true, by the way.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

My brother, when he was a baby, apparently, my parents say that.

I don't know if that's like a joke.

Your brother went orange because he ate too many carrots.

Yeah, obsessed.

Obsessed with Bugs Bunny.

Not joking.

He was obsessed with Bugs Bunny and was obsessed with eating carrots.

And he ate so many that my dad and mom both told me separately.

So it wasn't like, haha, this is like parents.

It was either it's the greatest long con

of all time

or they're misremembering.

or but it's true to them.

I feel like sometimes families have jokes that go on for so long they become real in their head.

Yeah, yeah.

And I think maybe your brother going orange because he ate too many carrots is one of those.

Because he loved Bugs Bunny.

Yeah, because he loved Bugs Bunny.

He loved Bugs Bunny.

Yeah.

That's how they got him to eat the carrots as well.

They said you'd be.

Because most people it's like, eat your spinach, you'll go up to be like Popeye or something.

Yeah, that's what I did.

Yeah.

But this was eat your carrots, you'll grow up to be like Bo's Bunny.

See, that's a little window into my family.

It's very different.

Sort of...

Yeah, you can be a kind of wise cracking rabbit if you defeat these as opposed to a strong man.

A strong sailor.

Yeah.

A strong sailor.

Would you rather be...

There's a Twitter poll for you.

Would you rather be a strong sailor or a wise cracking rabbit?

That's a good point.

We're sort of Popeye and Bugs Bunny.

Are you Popeye?

Yeah, because I've got my stripey shirt on as well.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So you're the strong sailor.

I'm not the wise cracker.

I'm not a broad.

I've got Popeye shoulders.

Benito's not in the shirt.

You're definitely Bug Bunny.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Well, I didn't think for a second I was going to be, but

that's why I asked, Confused, if you were Popeye.

Who's Elmer Fudd trying to hunt you down?

That's the question.

Bonito.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So you want bread?

Yeah, I'm a bread guy.

You want bread?

Do you want any specific type of bread before the meal?

Do you have a favourite bread?

I love sourdough.

I think that's the best bread.

For me.

Yeah.

You know, I don't want to make one big bold claim.

Sure.

You can do that.

This is your episode, man.

If you want to be be impressed.

Sourdough is the best bread.

The best bread.

Do you have anywhere that you like to buy sourdough from?

There's a bakery right by where I grew up called Bigsby Bakery that makes freshly baked sourdough bread.

It's delicious.

We go there first thing in the morning to get this bread for your dream meal.

Yeah, they have really good steak sandwich there as well.

It's another

recommendation, let's say.

Aside from steak, what's in this sandwich?

It's arugula and a bit of horseradish aioli.

nice

get a little kick yeah a little cream what's arugula

like that rocket rocket that's cooler that's a cooler way of describing it yeah it's a stupid name though i'll think about that calling a leaf rocket is crazy yeah arugula sounds like an actual yeah it sounds like a leaf yeah yeah yeah rocket is i'll tell listen i'll take rock rocket sounds cooler to me i mean there's also what was the thing we were talking about the other day at work though like um at work um uh fighting ghosts um that's what work is yes um

Yes.

What was the

beans?

What do you guys call string beans here?

Oh, fine beans.

That caused a lot of a hoo-ha on the menu where it said you can get fine beans.

Fine beans, right?

It was on the catering menu, and everyone was like, what the fuck?

What is

fine beans?

What they're just,

yeah, everyone immediately

was like, you think you're better than me?

Like, everyone immediately.

Is James actually in this film, or do you just make him stand by the catering room when you're translating everything?

I tell people to Google it.

Yeah.

what if my thing yeah google it bill murray yeah so you want the bigsby bakery bread yeah brilliant do you want it with butter do you want like some salted butter yeah yeah salted butter i think is always i i'm a i hate unsalted butter because then there's just no it's just oil then at that point yeah i know it's the olive oil by itself i would rather that i do agree with the unsalted butter like even when like a recipe calls for that with an unsalted butter and then they get you to add salt later anyway it's like why just put salted butter in absolutely i i truly think that the reason why people make unsalted butter is because they bought it on accident.

They're like, oh, it's the other, ah, shit.

Well, whatever.

I'll just use this instead.

I have bought it by accident before.

And even then, I'm getting the pot of salt that I have in my house.

This is stores open.

It's a bum.

It's like, and then it's like, what, you butter bread, like toast in the morning and you have to do unsalted butter.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

Imagine a lobster or crab.

with unsalted butter.

It's nothing.

It's a nothing food.

That's nothing at that point.

Yeah.

I mean, I mean, crab's still great by itself.

Lobster, still great by itself, but you're just dunking it in oil for no reason at that point.

Yeah.

Although, you know, sometimes that can be good.

The best sandwich of my life was when they just dunked it in oil.

Well, yeah, but that's fun.

What kind of oil was it?

Wait, what?

Sorry, what kind of sandwich?

Wait, what sandwich?

What do you mean dunked?

And also, dunked.

What are you talking about?

What do you mean by dunked?

I got it in

this place.

I've never seen it before.

You're improvising this.

It's a bacon prize.

I was walking past the old Vic towards Waterloo Station, there was a little sandwich stall.

I asked for one of these sandwiches and he had a big bap and it was like full of ham and salad.

And then he did, well, he didn't do this in front of me.

It was cling-filmed.

He

gave me it.

It was cling-filmed and he gave it to me.

And I unwrapped it.

I bit into it.

It was just full of olive oil everywhere.

It's like he just dunked this whole sandwich in a bat of olive oil and then wrapped it up.

And I bit into it.

Was this an actual sandwich place or just a man?

Yeah, this is a man on the side of the boat.

It was delicious.

It was such a good sandwich.

I'm going to be a little bit more.

I got this sandwich out of his shopping truck.

I've got enough of the sandwich.

It was a pop-up, oily.

It was full of oil.

It sounds horrible.

I don't know about how you feel about it.

I hate it.

One time I was eating at a restaurant in Brooklyn with a few friends, and I had steak that was just dripping in oil.

And it was like, what is unacceptable?

This is for.

I want this to taste like meat.

Like, I want it to taste like exactly what I got it for, which is, spoiler alert, steak.

Yeah.

I used to work in the kitchen in a pub, and there was a guy who wasn't the main chef, but was like, you know, second chef, but would be in charge.

The Sue.

The Sioux, as you would say.

Who would be in charge when the other guy wasn't there?

And he was like a real like cutting corners dodgy guy.

So like the main chef was really good, made a beautiful steak.

The other guy, I saw him on several occasions, chuck a steak in the fryer and fry it in the

to cook it first

was it to save time yeah just do it quickly do it like that send it out oil all over it like your time

and also it always doesn't save time because it always gets sent back yeah of course and obviously it would get bollocked every time by the management for going frying steaks I would leave I think I'd I think I'd actually be like this is evil this is pure evil it's the sort of thing you see on like kitchen nightmares yeah oh yeah yeah he would he would absolutely but you assume it's one of those scenes that has been created for entertainment purposes yeah it's Sometimes when I'm watching those clips, I'm like,

it looks kind of good.

There's something in me that's like, Gordon Ramsey eating something that was like, it's always a bad sign in the episode where they say it's fresh frozen.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I've seen a lot of this show.

But they say like, oh, it's fresh frozen.

He's like, well, then it's not fucking fresh or whatever.

That's what I would say.

I don't care.

if it's okay you know like if it's fine yeah if there's salt or sg

probably be fine it depends like how the restaurant's presented, right?

If it's just you're just going somewhere randomly to get something, it doesn't really matter.

It doesn't matter.

And the amount of like random places that I eat at airports that are just like so I could eat, I could just be eating Play-Doh at that point.

And

I'm just happy to be putting anything in my stomach.

Yeah.

So I have a pretty low bar, maybe.

Yeah, if it was like called Finn's Kitchen Nightmares, it's for you going around going,

that's not bad, actually.

This is fine.

Popsicles, sprinklers, a cool breeze.

Your dream starter.

I'm thinking back.

I'm trying to put myself sort of in in my shoes at the time.

There's this amazing place in Toronto called Annabelle's Pasta Bar.

It's in West West Toronto.

And it has,

you know, just one chef, one guy.

It's a small, small little restaurant.

And for a starter, they do bone marrow.

And it's so good.

I'd never had it before.

Actually, that was the last time I had it too.

I've only had bone marrow once.

Actually, I ordered bone marrow again and there was no bone marrow.

It was just the bone.

I'm not even joking.

I was like, so what is this?

Yeah.

Everyone's falling for that prank at least once.

Yeah, it was.

It's a prank.

Yeah, but they send it out and you go, oh, god, fuck it.

Oh, I got the bone again.

You push through to sort of get it all out the bottom and it just immediately hits bone marrow.

Exactly.

But this is amazing.

It's like, but it's buttery.

You put it on some bread as well.

That's some unsalted butter that I would have.

Right.

It's basically bone marrow.

But then you put some salt on that as well, right?

Yeah, definitely.

Yeah, definitely.

I love it.

Absolutely love bone marrow.

I did it at home the other day.

Did you?

Yeah.

That's amazing.

I mean, you did it.

I went to the butcher's.

Okay, got it.

I bought some bones and I put some salt.

I just smashed them open.

Well, I got them cut rather than like lengthways.

I got them cut just like chunks of bone.

Yeah.

Yeah.

180 in the oven, 20 minutes.

And then I did some steaks on the barbecue and I just put the bone marrow all over the steaks.

Wow.

And it was delicious for like 10 minutes and then the bone marrow really started to harden up and the texture was unpleasant.

Yeah.

Who else was there?

My friend Freddie.

Don't know this guy.

We'll talk about this after.

Freddy?

Who is that?

Yeah, my friend Freddy.

Yeah.

You know what?

He's one of my wine friends.

Oh, yeah, okay.

Yeah, yeah.

His wine friends are different crew.

Look, because I got given a very old bottle of wine for my birthday and I said, Freddie needs to come over and open this.

And he went, yeah, that's going to be fucked.

And he came over, opened it.

It was disgusting, undrinkable.

Really?

Interesting.

Yeah.

But didn't he?

Classic Freddy.

Classic Freddy.

You always invite him over to open up the good bottle of wine.

Always hands up being shit.

That's certainly Freddy's fault.

That's classic, Freddy.

Yeah, it's starting to think it's always been Freddy, isn't it?

He's switching it out.

Did Freddy bring a bottle of wine with him that was a replacement?

I bought another replacement, and that was also cooked.

Oh, so all of it was.

Yeah, but we had plenty.

We had plenty.

Don't worry about us guys.

Congealed bone marrow.

That was all right.

And oil.

But the best way of doing it, I should have done it, just put it straight onto hot toast.

Yeah, but

that's how they served it.

And they put it on focaccia.

Oh, lovely.

Oh wow.

Really, really good.

If you want more bone marrow while you're in England, you should go to St.

John, which is like the place

that did it first, pretty much.

They're the OG.

They're the OG bone marrow guys.

Interesting.

Well, I'm pretty sure cavemen were the OG bone marrow guys.

But they're not roasting it, though, are they?

Spread it on toast.

I do actually have a favorite.

There's a random, I have a favorite YouTube video, and it's this guy who's like out in the Arctic, and he is uh he's living out there and he's like you know a few months ago he's like killed a deer but he's been living off of it for you know months oh what is finally down

and then this is and so he gets down to the bone he's like you know you can actually eat the the marrow raw like and said so he literally he puts the it's in the arctic he puts the bone on two rocks and then puts another bone and splits it in the middle and just eats it directly at it and it's the most satisfying

i so maybe some people will find it gross i think it's it looks delicious

I actually think it looks amazing.

It's like frozen bone marrow.

Maybe it's because he just sells it so well.

He's like, oh, this is so good.

So it's your favorite YouTube video because you like watching the man eating the bone marrow and he really loves it.

Yeah, and he really loves it.

Yeah, he loves it.

Because I thought this is going to be like this guy is going to have a nightmare.

Like he's there, he goes, you know, you can eat the bone marrow raw and he's going to like

break it, eat it,

amazing.

You can shit him well.

Or is it all like the the bones of the business.

Do you guys ever watch the show alone?

No, no.

Okay, alone is great because it's like they get 30 people who are like, I like to think I'm pretty outdoorsy.

And they drop them in the middle of nowhere for real with nothing.

With literally nothing.

Yeah.

And they give them one camera and they have to document their entire journey.

And the last person standing wins the sum of money.

It's like Nakative Afraid, but like with...

without being naked and there's no other cameramen and it's just them and they have to make it afraid.

They are afraid.

And there's also, yeah they have to make everything they are afraid they're not naked sometimes they're naked yeah what's amazing and you'll find it every single season you'll have one at least one character that's way too cocky and is like yeah you know i've been doing this for a long time or like you know i've been living off the off the grounds in colorado whatever this is nothing to me and then they get really confident and they find some i don't know it could be like a bug or something you know like they're trying to find anything to eat and they're like yep this is gonna be good this is is going to be good.

And they're showing the camera like, that's good eats for the night.

And then it is a hard cut to like, oh,

like three in the morning in night vision.

I'm like, grabbing us.

I'm like, something was not right about that bug.

Okay, I wonder why.

If you watch that show, at least.

One, at least two people have that every season.

They're like, oh, this looks good.

Not two.

And they have to get airlifted away.

It's just a long thing.

And by the way, sometimes it happens like halfway through.

So they have to like go back and do like a re-feeding program, which is essentially you have to learn how to eat again.

Wow.

Because they ate the bug.

They ate the bug.

Well, that's because, no, because they're not eating anything.

Right, okay, so they're like trying to get anything.

But when they do get something, it's this like,

I got this thing.

It's going to be so good.

My stomach.

Is this quite a lot of bone marrow they're giving you?

Or is it quite, because sometimes I think people can be, like you say, you order once just the bone and you're like, there's hardly any marrow on this.

I mean, people could be very stingy.

I would say it's just enough.

It's two,

there might be one big bone that's split in half.

And they serve it to you in the bone, like halved in the bones.

And you just scoop it out with a spoon and you spread it on the bread.

Perfect amount, I would say.

I would say if there's any more, it would be kind of gross.

I think, because this is the dream restaurant, I think we should say across the whole menu, the amount of food should be just enough.

The perfect amount of food.

Yes, it is just, you're absolutely correct.

Yeah.

You're absolutely correct.

Because that's what everyone wants to overboard on your steaks when you put the burnout on.

It sounds like you went.

Sounds like you put Vaseline on your steaks.

Yeah, yeah.

It genuinely looked like that by the way.

Yeah, because that's what it looks like.

Yeah.

When it hardens up, it's like congealed.

And it was unpleasant to eat.

Yeah.

I just imagine you being like, oh, I do not like this at all.

Scraping it off the steak.

You did the steaks perfectly so next time i'm going to do it on toast but i i will be doing it again bird would be the starter yes well let me know don't invite freddie around yeah

like invite me over yeah

you don't have to like invite me over yeah you don't have to come i'll have the you're going to tiptoe around james no no no i never tiptoe around james doesn't want to he's very heavy

you're heavy-footed yeah

i'll clump i'll clump around him yeah you clump yeah he knows freddie and i wouldn't get on i'm not wasting the good wine on you so this is

what's going on this i have no idea what's going going on you're a boxed wine

i mean literally the only time i can ever tell if a wine is good is if it is literally the best what like yeah but like the only times i've ever been like that's a good wine is when i've been in a ridiculously bougie situation and someone has gone here's a very very special bottle and they bring it out and i go oh yeah i can finally taste wine anything below that is the same i don't know if it's bottom shelf top shelf i i have no idea whatsoever but someone goes this is big uh drink it goes oh yeah i can tell that that's good to be fair this happened twice to me right so ben benito is now making out that after i've been told i then like make out like i get like i'm going oh yeah this is good no no no i'm saying you you really

gone oh that is delicious wine and yeah than any other wine i've had is when it's been a fancy pants wine oh but it's presented to you as such so i think benita's saying in a blind taste test would you be able to pick out the incredible fancy pants i guess we'll never know well i mean i i think so.

I think so.

So what you're saying

is nothing.

You're saying

that was nothing.

I think I would be able to tell.

Yeah, I think you would.

I truly.

I would just go along with it.

What does older wine taste like?

It depends.

Is there a difference?

The thing is, I don't know a huge amount about it.

I'm probably in a similar situation to James, where if I'm told it's lovely, then I can.

I've never had like a...

If we're going to eat after this,

well, maybe we'll try.

We'll try a blind taste test.

We'll try an old bottle of wine.

Yeah.

Okay.

Bottle of wine.

An entire bottle of wine.

A bunch of bottles of wine.

We'll get five bottles of wine.

The cheapest and most expensive on the menu.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Bottle each.

Blindfolded.

Straw.

It's the most impractical way.

Yeah, yeah.

No, I don't know any restaurant that would let you do that.

Could I please have the most old, the oldest bottle of wine?

We're getting to take away.

We do it in the Uber.

Oh, yeah.

And carrots.

And plus carrots.

Yeah, yeah.

That's what we do.

Yeah, on your account.

Your dream main course.

So I've been hearing a lot about this main, this sort of the rules of

this restaurant.

If it's a dream restaurant, can I have sort of anyone around?

Yeah.

Any pals?

Well, just, yeah, a pal, a pal who's around.

Who would you like?

Well.

Okay, a friend from high school.

Okay, my friend Dane from high school.

Classic Dane.

As you guys know.

Dane's there.

This is before the main course even comes out.

Yeah.

He's kind of, he's eating.

He's eating dinner.

Oh, Finn, good to see you.

Oh, yeah, good to see you too.

I just got a raise for my job.

Order anything you want.

Order whatever you like.

That's not a course.

This is on Dane.

This is on Dane.

Yeah, yeah.

That's not a course, is it?

Well, hold on.

Oh, hang on.

So are you introducing a new course?

Yeah, but that's which is the Dane course.

The Dane course is that he's, he's...

Because Dane got a raise.

So he's at another table.

He's at another table and he's joining me for like, he's about, but he's joining me for like a 15-minute period, but he's like, because he got a rest.

Or anything.

Exactly.

Yeah.

Well, he got a res and there's an Uber that's outside.

But he is, he's offering me anything.

Yes.

Okay.

I like this.

I do like this.

I need more details about Dane.

What sort of guy is he?

What industry does he work in?

Yeah.

Dane is a college student.

So maybe he's got the raise thing's tricky, though.

Well, he's got extra money.

Okay, inheritance, maybe.

A family member has passed away.

Now,

if he was in the situation of a family member passing away and he had inheritance,

I'd be in that situation.

Would I go into a restaurant, see my friend and go, my grandma just died?

Yes, 100%.

Get whatever you want.

100%.

No, of course not.

Of course not.

I guess the bigger question is,

you know, I'm not sure if part of my dream meal would be a friend becoming bereaved.

My dream meal is a friend burying his soul about his

failure.

Okay, fine.

It's not a Dane meal then, okay?

It's a Jeff Bezos meal.

Bezos is in.

Bezos Bezos is going to buy you the meal.

I feel like there's someone in between those two who you could pick.

No, there's only two.

It's either Dane or Bezos, I would say.

There's no middle meal.

I think he's exactly between them.

I don't think Bezos is going to come in and see a guy from a hit Netflix show and start traveling.

You're right.

If it was Amazon.

Yeah.

Bezos.

If anything, he'd be like, you know, send a fucking plate of shit over to that kid.

Yeah.

And then you'd look over and he'd be like, giving you the best.

And it has a little white flag.

It has a little white flag with the Amazon Prime.

Come on, it's the middle finger.

Still in the

Joe Bezos gave me the wrong.

That's not the middle finger.

That's not what people said.

Yeah.

Okay, fine.

Then

the head of Netflix, Ted Sarandos.

Ted Serandos, isn't it?

Yeah, so he would definitely do it.

Yeah, he'd shout you a meal.

And that's real.

Yeah, yeah.

This is real now.

Yeah.

Because he happens to be in the same restaurant.

Yes.

He doesn't want to close

email before.

But he wants to be like, Finn, I'm over here.

Get whatever you want.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

yeah.

Okay, I'm ordering.

Um, so hold on, this is an extra.

This is a

Mexican or that.

Do you guys ever have Harritos here?

Oh, no.

So, Mexican soda.

Oh, yeah.

Delicious.

Oh, okay.

Glass bottle.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Grapefruit.

And then two tacos come out.

They're small.

Yeah.

Pinch size.

Yeah.

Carnitas.

Yeah.

From this place called Tacaria in Vancouver.

It's on Yukon Street, I think.

There's a few.

Yeah.

And then Jeff.

Did I say Jeff?

No, no, this is not Jeff.

Ted Savando.

Ted, it's Ted now.

It's Ted now.

This is very different.

And I am in huge loyalty, by the way.

If anyone hears this, if anyone hears this, I am in loyalty to Ted.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Not to Jeff or anyone else.

Or Dane.

Yeah, or Dane.

Or Dane.

Or Dane, a spot shot.

Listen, I love Dane.

But he's not in a position to get erased and be like people.

He's just listening.

I know.

Well,

I don't know.

I haven't talked to him in a few months, so I don't know if he has or not.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Dane, if you listen, Dane if you listen, I love you.

You're the man.

You'll get through this, man.

Yeah.

With the rays or not.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay, so Ted, yeah.

I grabbed that SM pickled onion.

Yeah.

On it.

Red pickled onion.

Delicious.

Yeah.

And just really good, really good soda.

I think this is like it's a light, it's a light vibe.

It's a light snack.

Yeah, and it's like a thank you.

Yeah.

You know?

Sure.

I mean, that's fine.

And also, I think, you know, Ted Sarandos, if he shouts you, goes, whatever you like, you get two tacos and a Mexican soda, he's going to be like, okay, man.

I think you're still in

the black there.

You've still got money.

I'm not a very flashy person.

Like I said, I'm plain Jane.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

I'm not going to go overboard.

I went to the Ivy with my parents today.

That was weird for me.

Still, it's the Ivy.

I didn't know your parents were here.

They're here.

If you want to meet them, have to do this.

They'll be here.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

There's two choices.

I do, actually.

There's two choices.

Either you eat them or you don't.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

That'll be your best.

Right now.

So that's a cheat.

That's my little cheat.

And is it because you couldn't decide?

Like, you were like, oh.

There's just too many things

to eat.

So you're going for tacos.

You need to get tacos in there somewhere.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And this particular place is...

Would you recommend this to anyone going to?

Absolutely.

La Taqueria.

There's also specific.

I mean, this is a different, this is a different, and this is not part of my meal.

There's a place place in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Breaking bad.

Yep.

Yeah.

It's the only thing truly though, that is the only thing that's going on there.

It's a beautiful state, but it's built on the economy that is breaking bad.

Yeah, it's all built on meth.

Yeah.

But what can be a wonderful city?

And there's a amazing, I was staying in this house when I was shooting something and I stayed by this place called Barbac.

Barbacoa El Primo, I think it was called.

And they only sell Barbacoa tacos.

They're small and you can buy them by the pound.

Wow.

And they just serve.

It's the most incredible thing you've had.

It's so amazing.

I said the La Taqueria tacos because they're just classic and I grew up eating them.

But

both are.

So you wouldn't want to on the Servando's meal.

Maybe to add on.

I would say, yeah, yeah.

Maybe a third.

But it's crazy about the barbaco tacos.

They're even smaller than the tacos that I'm talking about at La Taqueria.

Right.

So

I feel like we could throw a lot of those in.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Put the barbico in.

Ted's a generous guy, right?

Yeah.

He is.

He really is.

He's a generous guy.

He's excited about

Stranger Fings, you know.

He is.

Okay, so that's just a Rando's course.

Yeah.

So then the main course.

It's a hard one, actually.

Because I feel like there's so many.

I was like talking to my dad about it.

I was like, do you remember any specific good meals we had?

He was like, we're really lucky.

Like, we traveled.

around and had really amazing meals.

So here, I'm going to pick right now.

This is it.

Have you got got a list of potential meals?

I do.

I came prepared.

This is actually not potential.

This is what it is because it's the most recent.

I went to

Japan with a few friends and just went for vacation.

And we went to Yokohama for a day, which is like a port city outside of Tokyo.

And there was this amazing ramen place we went to.

There's so much amazing ramen, obviously, in Yokohama.

But we went to this specific place and it has this, it was like soy broth.

A lot of times you have like tonkatsu broth, which is like like pork this is like um clear soy broth which i guess is yokohama style or something i don't know

but it was just really very good and this is the first time i've ever used this dickhead um umami thing oh yeah you know and i don't think everyone who says umami is a dickhead i don't think that at all but

there's part of me that's like you just don't know what it tastes like so you're just saying

and it's making you sound smarter than you are and so guess what i used it and it did yeah

i used it but it's so good.

It was one of those things, like you couldn't really place why it tasted so good.

It was like buttery and I don't know where they got the butter from.

Yeah.

It was ramen, so I don't think there was any

butter.

It was bone marrow.

But it was, it was so good.

It was really good.

What else was it just ramen?

It doesn't sound delicious.

It was just

like clear soy broth and then noodles.

And then two pieces of pork and then like scallions.

and that was it.

But the broth was the thing that was incredible about it.

The broth's the star of the show.

Yeah.

Broth is the star of the show.

I love it.

I love ramen.

Yeah.

I know, man.

It's so good.

I'm sure.

Are there good places here?

There's a couple of good places, but I think if you

go to Japan.

Yeah, I think Japan.

Probably the one that you've had there.

You're not going to find anything here that touches that.

I even had like amazing ramen in Tokyo Airport on the way home from Japan.

Like for breakfast, I just had ramen.

It was incredible.

Did you you play in Tokyo?

No, no, no, I was just there for holiday.

But yeah, just amazing.

It's so good.

Such good stuff.

There's a few good London chains.

Yeah.

Isn't there like Bone Daddies and stuff like that?

Yeah.

Yeah.

I've been seeing that sign a lot.

I haven't.

Yeah, that's good.

It's been sort of drilling into my brain.

You know, those sort of.

They're just brandings everywhere.

So now.

I'm like, no, you have to go there.

You have to go there.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I've brain seen it enough.

The original Bone Daddies on Peter Street in Soho is very good still.

Yeah.

You say Pizza Street?

Peter Street.

Sorry?

Peter Street.

Oh, got it.

Rather than Pizza Street.

That is a place I would go to.

Yeah.

But if you're opening a ramen restaurant, you're fucking crazy if you open on Pizza Street.

The best ramen restaurant in all of London is on Pizza Street.

Yeah, yeah.

You're in trouble.

If you want to know where to get the best pizza on Pizza Street, just Google it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And pick whatever one,

I guess.

Google Best Pizza on Pizza Street.

I'm not fucking helping you out.

I'm not like that for this fucking film.

I'm not paying enough.

I'm not getting paid enough.

Just then telling everyone what fine beans are.

Yeah, yeah.

Trying to live my fucking life.

This isn't the fine beans.

I've got a clue how to do this.

Your dream side dish now.

I have a few friends in Chicago, and they've taken me to like, I feel like some of the best food I've ever had has been in Chicago.

There's a place that I love going to.

There's like a few called Parsons Chicken and Fish.

Just got really good fried chicken and really good fried fish.

And I would get the nuggets.

Nuggets are so good.

Like they're the best.

Usually chicken nuggets, I feel like they're sort of an implied like, yeah, you know what you're going to get here.

Yeah.

But they're just great.

They really are just great.

I love that we started this podcast with you saying becoming more of a food

moving away from McDonald's.

I feel like this is a few steps up.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Just a few.

It's bridging the gap between McDonald's and into the sort of, yeah, that's great.

Absolutely.

Talk us through the nuggets.

Why are they so good?

They just, I don't know, they taste like chicken.

I don't know how, you know what I mean?

You know, like, sometimes you're eating a chicken nugget, you're like, I don't know what the fuck this is, but I'm going to eat it.

It's just good, fresh chicken.

I don't know how to describe it.

What's the batter like?

Batter's crispy.

That's what makes a good chicken nugget to me as well.

Like, also, a good chicken nugget is Chick-fil-A.

That's a good fast food.

If you're going for fast food chicken nuggets, Chick-fil-A because it just tastes like actual chicken.

Yeah.

But yeah, it's really good.

The Parsons in general is really good.

It's really good stuff.

They also have my drink too, my drink of choice.

Oh, wow.

We're not even moving on

place-wise.

But that's sort of a...

Must have been staying in the same location.

So

when you go there,

it must be quite exciting to get the nuggets and this dream drink at the same time and be like, this is two.

The reason why I get the nuggets as a sauce.

Like, you know, if it was the main, that I would get the sandwich, the chicken sandwich.

I would do a sandwich there.

But, you know,

because there's another shout-out for a sandwich.

There's no no sandwiches on this menu, but there are two places that you've mentioned to where you go, and there's a good sandwich on.

So, you're a sandwich guy?

A huge sandwich guy.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

You had that written all over me.

Huge sandwich guy.

I picked up on a few mentions of a sandwich.

If you want a good sandwich in London, there's a guy who's just under a bridge who dipped it in oil for you.

Oh, if you want to go, if you want to go down there.

Who's here is this guy?

Near the old Vic.

I haven't seen him for a while.

His name's Old Vic.

His name's Old Vic.

His name's Old Vic.

His name's Old Son.

Some of the the old name?

Old Vic Son.

Do you want that side where he's dipped, son?

I would say yes if you'd offered it to me.

Yeah, it sounds like Jason Statham.

Yeah,

it's Jason Statham's new cabbage.

Yeah.

You want one of these?

It's dipped in oil.

Do you get any dips with the nuggets?

Yep.

They have honey mustard, delicious.

There's a ranch, also delicious, made there, I'm pretty sure.

Great.

Homemade ranch.

Yeah, homemade ranch.

I think.

Don't quote me on that, but whatever it was.

Imagine if that got you in trouble.

Yeah, it was like, I went to parcel chicken and fish in lincoln winced square and it wasn't homemade it was out of the bottle

Let's move on to your dream drink actually because we're already in the location.

Yes.

So we're just pivoting slightly.

They make blended drinks like frozen like slushies

that are so good.

They have a Negroni one that's really good.

Wow.

The one that I and they have this one called the Dr.

Coconut.

These feel that one sounds fake, but I assure you it's not.

The Dr.

Coconut is like just like a rum-based, whatever, you know, kind of pina colada vibe.

The best thing there is is called a chichi colada.

That's what I would have.

And it's basically lime, mescal, like orange bitters,

and like peanut, sort of pina colada mix, all mixed up.

And it's the most delicious

blend of cocktail ever.

This is going to be so abio straight.

Yep, I'd love it.

I absolutely love it.

So good.

Yeah.

So even, I mean, the coconut one's great too, but that one just kind of puts it over the edge, I would say, of like good drinks.

Yeah.

Also just good mixed drinks, too.

I mean, like they have, I would say, like,

I mean, I'll save it.

I'll actually I'll save it.

I'll save it for I'll save it for later.

Okay, this will be

intriguing, but but um, you have to remind me because this will, it'll be technically it's a drink, but it's it's no one you don't like sip on it.

It's more of a shot.

Okay, okay.

Yeah, I love like, yes, like alcoholic slush drinks.

Yeah, uh, absolutely great.

And you don't see them on the blue crew.

The blue crew.

The blue crew.

I don't know if you told them about this.

Oh, I haven't told them about the the blue crew.

What's the blue crew?

James, don't tell them.

I'll tell them about the blue crew.

I have to, though.

A bunch of us went for a meal before going to see Abba Voyage.

Obviously.

As all great stories do.

Obviously, I knew you were going to ABBA Voyage.

Yes.

And I spent all night while you're at ABBA Voyage laughing about you going to Abba Voyage.

Yeah, yeah.

Ed did a gig with Kamale.

Kamale told him we were all going to see Abba Voyage.

Made him laugh.

Immediately you get texts Edinish asking me about you are going to Abba Voyage.

Immediate text back, yes, that's the first time I'm meeting Paul Rudd.

And it was.

Yep, it was the first time.

Guess what?

It was awesome.

It was just terrifying.

I walked in.

So first of all, I got to the restaurant, Smoke and Goat.

Great.

Greg restaurant.

Yeah.

Got there.

And I was like, oh, I wonder if we'll be the first here.

As soon as we walk in, there's a girl freaking out to her mum that Ant-Man's in the restaurant.

Okay, so is he?

So we're not the first.

Go over to table and Finn, Finn's friend Fred and Paul are there.

Kamal joins us and my girlfriend and I.

And then I see on the menu is a cocktail.

Yes.

It's called something blue.

I can't remember what the first word was.

Blue something.

Look it up.

Belito's good.

We did have it.

We've been there.

Yeah, I know we've been there.

Do we have the bandwidth?

I think we had, we might, or I definitely, I don't think I had it, maybe.

I don't know if I've had it before because I wasn't.

I jumped jumped on the bandwagon immediately.

So I ordered it just to add tequila.

If it turns out you've had it before,

it's the perfect James A.

Caster story.

Yeah, of course it is.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

It's absolutely perfect.

I forgot I had it before.

Cosmic blues.

The Cosmic Blues.

I ordered the Cosmic Blues because it had tequila in.

Yeah.

And then everyone jumped on it.

I immediately went because sometimes I like copying people.

This is a restaurant I also didn't know.

So sometimes I'll get the locals

favorite.

The locals favourite.

Locals favourite.

Everyone apart from Kamal orders it.

That's a stance.

He took a stance.

Yeah, I am not getting the blue drip.

But he didn't know it was going to be blue.

Oh, is it actually blue?

Yeah.

So this is the thing.

I didn't know it was going to be blue.

So

this is where it went.

Oh, I did.

This is where it like.

This is where it went bad for me.

Because everyone's copied me.

Kamal's like, no, I'm having something else.

And I was like, oh, you don't want to be in the blue crew with a blue?

Because it was called that.

But then they come along and they literally are like neon blue, ridiculous.

I was like, oh, no, I don't know these people well enough.

Now I've made them all get this blue drink.

Yeah.

And started calling yourself the blue crow.

Called us the blue crow.

Runs their drinking the blue drink.

He doesn't, he's not.

He's not happy with it.

He's delighted about it.

No.

You know, he's trying to keep a low profile.

Yeah.

He's there with a neon blue drink.

Washing it around.

Waving around this neon blue drink.

He's like he's fucking holding the tessera.

Yeah.

You were the Thana snap to his real life.

Everything disappeared after he drank that drink.

Yeah.

We all were bummed, I would say.

Yeah, no one was happy about

it.

It was so funny.

Yeah.

It's such a funny thing.

As a bit, we kept drinking.

We just kept.

I finished the whole thing.

I was like, I don't like this, but I'm going to keep on.

Also, we were committed to being the blue crew at that point.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

At least I was.

I don't know if there's any fake motherfuckers at the table.

I was the only one that was in the city.

It doesn't sound like Rod was fully in.

No, he was in.

He fell in to me.

Maybe one flood out at the least.

Yeah.

Also, I mean, for a full, you know, if the listener listener wants a full kind of like image of who's at the table i said like just like you know finn's friend fred

fred plays the uh the the the guy in the first series of white lotus who goes canoeing the kid who's yeah so that's who that is yeah so that's funnier to me as well i've made him do it yeah

he loved it yeah yeah you know you know he loved it yeah his sweetheart and then you all bought matching jackets we did no we didn't buy them we were given oh wait that that makes more sense it would have been hilarious if we bought them though

because i bet they're really expensive.

Because if you really do.

If you hadn't

been given them, you know, James would have tried to make you all buy them.

Yeah, I would have.

And by the way, I would have.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Because you told me.

You're in the blue crew.

I definitely would have come to you.

You and Fred definitely would have bought them.

Everyone else, I feel like I've lost their trust by then.

For you, too.

No, no, no, no, no.

It's all in your head.

It's all in your head, Bluey.

Is he bluey?

I don't know.

I'm bluey though.

Yeah, we all got

the blue crew.

I'm blue.

Shirts purple, right?

Bluey, blue boy, blue balls.

Who's blue balls?

Blue balls is the efficiency.

Very good.

Blue boy is blue balls.

Blue boyfred.

My girlfriend is

Bluesy and McCoozy.

And Bull Vad is Blowblood.

Blowblood?

Blowblood.

Blowblood.

Your dream dessert.

So I get this whenever I'm back in Vancouver.

What's going on?

Dead stomach.

Dead stomach is roaring.

That's a good sign.

It's time to eat.

That's been a good menu.

That's how this podcast ends.

You actually you eat every person you have.

If it's a good menu,

exactly.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And then you shut the door.

And then there's like a there's a little bait, you know, there's a little

dungeon down there that you keep all everyone.

And then I film myself eating the marrow and put it on YouTube.

Yeah.

That's my favorite, by the way.

It's my favorite video.

So, okay, yeah, so whenever I'm back, I have a local...

You guys don't have Dairy Queen here, do you?

No, but...

Have you been?

Familiarity?

Yes.

I think we've told the story in the podcast before when Darwin Brian tipped an entire Dairy Queen onto a carpet to prove that it would stick in the thing.

Oh, that's...

Yeah,

my friend used to work at Dairy Queen and said that once in a while, because, you know, if you've never been to Dairy Queen before, listeners out there.

When you have a blizzard, it's like a blended sort of ice cream with, you know, chocolate or cookies or whatever.

But it's like it's kind of a harder consistency whatever or it's like whatever it's ice cream but the whole thing about it is that if you tip the cup upside down the ice cream does not fall out that's like the whole thing about dairy queen i've never seen it fall out before well i've seen close i've seen very close when it's falling out except for

time exactly yeah it's not so immediately after you're done if it's a really hot day maybe

but uh my friend used to work at dairy queen and um there was a few times that dane was it day it was not day

Maybe you got a raise from Dairy Queen.

That's what I was thinking.

Dane Queen?

Cook.

Dane Cook.

No, but it was Cook.

A different guy.

So it wasn't Dane, it was Cook.

Yeah.

But it wasn't Dane Cook.

But you have to Dane.

Yeah.

Just to be a bit more detailed.

By the way, they've never been in the same room.

So don't ask.

Actually, don't ask.

I get this question all the time.

It's so annoying.

It's not my phone daddy and my friend Murphy.

Yeah.

Yeah, exactly.

Yeah.

They hate each other.

I could do one, but it wouldn't be as good.

No, no, I don't.

Say it.

I don't have one, but I was just thinking

there's no point.

All right, James and I in the blue crew.

Yeah, look, I'm not in the blue crew.

I can't make that joke.

Blue crew's going to rock it out.

So, okay, yeah.

So there's a blizzard that I order.

Like, Dairy Queens are huge in Texas or the Midwest or like random places.

And then for whatever reason, BC, like Canada, like BC, they're huge.

Or in Vancouver, they're like everywhere.

Dairy Queens.

British Columbia.

British Columbia.

Sorry.

Before

A Caster.

Before Caster.

Before Caster.

Yeah.

Before Caster.

That almost worked.

Yeah.

A Caster stands for after Caster.

No one going to say BC stands for Blue Crew?

For fuck's sake.

You're in the Blue Crew and you're missing opportunities like this.

That was an open goal.

Shit.

This is why the Blue Crew can't last for as long as we think it does.

We need to get added to the Blue Crew.

Sneaks the blue into his drink.

I wouldn't have one of those drinks FYI.

That sounds disgusting, those drinks.

Oh, my God.

You're such a

baby.

Yeah.

Lychee and Tekayla.

oh, that's right.

It was like a lot of lychee.

Yeah, no, no.

So there's a place, there's a the local dairy queen that's by my house and by my the place that I went to like elementary school that I would go to grow up going to all the time.

I found it out about this thing.

I was like eight.

And the guy who owns it, Simon, does this thing.

Well, that's made me laugh.

Yeah, that guy.

You go and he like is like, what do you want?

And you're like, oh, could I get a, whatever, Reese's pieces.

And he's like, well, I have this thing.

It's called the Dumbar Blizzard.

And I was like, oh.

And it's like, it's an or, I think it's Oreo with Reese's Peter Butter Cup and Cookie Dough mixed in.

It's like all mixed in.

Yeah.

And it's, it sounds like, you know, like when you mix so many things together and it kind of just tastes like nothing, it's, that's not that.

Like, it's just really good.

Yeah.

Very, very good ice cream.

And that's what I would usually go for.

It's like a cloud it's a hometown hero for me i would say

he really is actually he's a legend amongst my yeah amongst my neighborhood yeah because he he he was like the ice cream man in the neighborhood yeah yeah he fueled many kids childhoods with ice cream you're always happy to see simon always yeah always the reese's peanut butter cups is doing it for me absolutely perfect so good yeah the salty the sweet yeah yeah yeah we don't we still don't do enough with that sort of thing in this country i don't think no yeah i well actually that's not true.

You guys have like the, well, you have the crispy M ⁇ Ms, which is good.

I love this.

There's still no peanut butter M ⁇ Ms.

I'll tell you this.

Still.

I've known Finn for a couple of weeks.

Yeah.

I'd say that's the millionth of time I've heard him mention the crispy M ⁇ Ms.

I'm out of the future.

I was about to say,

absolutely loves it.

I was about to say that.

He loves the crispy M ⁇ Ms.

He mentioned it so much around James for whatever reason.

It's not normal.

I do love them.

Yeah, yeah.

This is the right guy to mention that sort of stuff around them.

Oh, I respect it.

Yeah, where I start the obsession yeah yeah i absolutely respect it i think it's great so yeah the dumb bar blizzard very good i love it and i i find all those ingredients yeah obviously i love reese's but like the cookie dough in there yeah and what's the third thing you said that oh the oreos great more and more now like actually fast becoming my favorite uh go-to ben and jerry's is that the switched up if i see a tub of switched up which has oreos in it

well it's basically just got like the ice creams on the outside and the pot is in the middle oh yeah exactly

But yeah, there's loads of Oreos on the bottom.

Yeah, yeah.

Chocolate chip cookies in there.

The thing,

like a fun fact, when I was 15, I would come home from high school or from where I have, like if I was work, if I was doing straighter things or whatever, I would not even, I would eat for, I think for two weeks, I ate a pint of Ben and Jerry's a day.

Wow.

And I developed lactose intolerance.

You gave yourself lactose intolerance, yeah.

Gave myself it.

And this is what, it was, this is, and I'm since totally fine.

Like I can eat eat ice cream be totally fun and it was such a mystery to me on why

I was like what's going on.

Why is my stomach hurt so much?

And everyone's like I wonder if it's the amount of ice cream you're putting into your system that's you like the guy on that show.

You'd be like which one another pint.

Here we go.

It's gonna be absolutely fine.

Cut to

eat the fuck.

Don't give them life.

Yeah.

yeah catching me on the bathroom floor yeah yeah well that's the thing that was the hard part i mean nothing ever happened to me like it just it just hurt so bad yeah it was probably not i wish that you know there was a funny shit story

but there wasn't um and all my friends were like yeah it was what it was like oh it was one of those things and they're like stop eating Ben and Jerry's like that.

And I'm like, no, that can't be it.

That has to not be it.

And they're like, that is it.

And then, guess what?

I stopped for like a few months, stopped eating ice cream.

And then I tried again.

Absolutely fine.

Fine.

You just needed to tap out for a bitch.

And what's season of Stranger for this?

So if you're watching my face during three, you can see the pain.

You've been

maybe.

The other kids, they all look concerned, I noticed, in season three.

Yeah.

Yeah, we're going to be doing it.

There's no

intervention here.

He's eating so much.

So much.

But the reason why I got...

Sidetracked about that is there was like the Oreo or the like I guess it was tech it's tech it's chocolate chip cookie they're called milk and cookies I don't know if you guys have that here.

Not here, no.

Milk and cookies, the best benefits.

And still, you know what's crazy about that?

I still like it.

It's not like I turned myself off to it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's like the.

You have to stop yourself from eating the whole pint.

Yeah.

Because I'm so bad.

As I said earlier.

Yeah.

So hit yourself on the hand.

Would you, have you ever eaten the Eggo waffles?

Did you ever eat the Eggo waffles on the set?

So your face makes me not want to say anything

ever again.

Because

you're doing your cheeky face.

And I bet you've wanted to ask this for so long.

Yeah.

No, no, no.

On the podcast, we've had people on who have been on Stranger Figures.

We used to ask them about, you know, Joe Quinn.

Yeah.

I asked him if it was Dustin's hands playing the guitar.

Yeah.

Hilarious.

So you asked me if I'm eating.

I'm offset.

You want me to have the answer?

No.

No.

Benito's just happy that we're getting towards the end of the podcast and we haven't done the Benegorgan yet.

Oh, yeah.

Normally we do the Benagorgan.

I know the fucking Benegorgan thing.

Don't do it.

Don't do it.

Don't say that.

Stop saying it.

Do it for whoever you get on next from the show that I'm on.

Oh wait, here's the last thing that I'll say food-wise.

It's actually a shot.

Oh yeah.

There's something.

Have you guys ever had Malort before?

No.

I've heard Malort.

I've never had Malort.

Okay, Malort is like originally from Poland.

It's like a shot, but for whatever reason, it's like the

Chicago shot.

And you have it sort of as like a welcoming, whatever.

It's kind of like a liqueur.

It's not really, it doesn't really, it doesn't taste like a liqueur.

It's not thick.

It's not sweet, but it's really bitter.

That's the whole thing about it.

It's like super, super, super bitter.

And everyone tells you that it's good.

And you're like, I know it's not going to be good.

And then you have it for the first time.

And it technically isn't good, but then you realize the aftertaste is like.

incredible and that's why people do it.

Because what happens is you put it, you throw it back, you taste it up front, and it's like so bitter and it's horrible.

And then that goes away and you have this amazing feeling slash taste on your tongue.

It's almost like grapefruit or something.

If I were to end my meal with something, I think it would be a shot of Malor.

Great.

That's the way to do it, I think.

We've got to try that.

Yeah.

We could.

Yeah, it's like one of those things where everyone's like, yeah, for years, people would tell me about Malort and be like, it's so good.

I'd be like, no, it's not.

Like, you know, it's one of those, like, adults say that it's good because they think that they have to you know because they're an adult yeah um and then you have it one day and it's not bad okay great well i'm gonna meet your menu back to you now

yeah of course i'll drink you've got to drink it you're the blue crew

uh

water still with ice plain gem pump numbs of bread sourdough from bigsby bakery with salted butter starter bone marrow on for catcher from annabelle's pasta bar then we we got the Serrandos course, Ted Serando's, getting you two Carney's tacos from the Takaria and one Barbacoa taco from Barbacoa El Primo.

Is he leaving then?

He's left by the door.

He's gone.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

He's out there.

If that was someone reading their own stuff that they had written at the end of the day,

imagine we just had that crazy conversation the whole time you guys were writing at the same time.

That would be impossible.

We've done a whole transcript of what's being said.

Yeah, that would be bad.

You guys should have one of those court transcribers on a big

sat in the corner.

They can't have a microphone though because they're really loud with the typewriter.
