Starting point is 00:00:01 This is a Rooster Teeth production. Welcome to Face Jam! It's the show that we're doing! I didn't have my paper ready! Where we try every new fast food creation to let you know if you need it. You probably do. I'll tell you what we did need. We needed the intro music and we got it. Just a taste. Just a little taste. I used the Quattro Pizza episode and I started talking two seconds into the song.
Starting point is 00:00:28 That's crazy. Well, I'm your host Michael Jones alongside my co-host. I'm more like diagonally across from him, but not alongside of him. Jordan Sweers. Jordan, how are you? Can we leave in like the first three minutes of this whole episode? I think so. No, you get through
Starting point is 00:00:43 probably. I figured Nick's going to do it. You want to leave in the part where Eric refused to play the music? No. Every time I do the song perfectly, everyone gets mad at me and they go, you're not doing it right. We don't get mad. I get disappointed because I want you to do better. And you don't get better
Starting point is 00:00:59 by quitting. I do it exactly how the song sounds. You've heard it placed up against the song and it's exactly how the song sounds. You've heard it placed up against the song, and it's exactly how the song sounds. Nah. There's more instrumentals in the audio version than your version. Yeah, see, that's something Eric can't really... You got to make more of a music sound with your voice?
Starting point is 00:01:18 Nope. Well, he needs the accompaniment, too. He's just one sound, but there's more than one sound in the song. And that's what really doesn't work for me. Okay, let me throw this out there. And I think this will make everybody happy. You record you doing it in your phone. And then you play it back and you do it again, just at a different pitch.
Starting point is 00:01:38 So at least we have two different versions coming at us. Yeah, you need like a backing track. If we were playing it back through a phone, why wouldn't we just play the regular theme song? Because that's not what it's about. Because you want to sing it so bad. I don't want to sing it so bad. Yeah, because we're trying to improve it.
Starting point is 00:01:56 No. This is what happened with the van. He no-no-noed for months and then got the van. This guy's going to come in. He's going to be harmonized. There's going to be a band playing. He's going to have a live band. You watch.
Starting point is 00:02:10 That's the next thing to happen. But re-record sets. And then music we paid for. That's not today. And then we win. We're always winning, baby. Yeah. The third win in a row.
Starting point is 00:02:19 Hey, hey. I won. Today, we're reviewing Buffalo Wild Wings pizza, and I think we've decided we're not reviewing, but we did also eat the orange chicken wings. Sorry, the Buffalo Wild Wings pizza wings and orange chicken wings. That's why I wrote it like that, because I went, this is going to be confusing,
Starting point is 00:02:40 and I figured that if I wrote it just the word pizza, I would get, I mean, I couldn't get struck. I mean, you might drive into me, but I would definitely get verbally scolded. I love it says Buffalo Wild Wings Pizza Wings. It's like the word wings over and over again. Yeah, and that's why I didn't say it the first time. My brain took it out because it went, that's there too many times. But yes, they are buffalo wings
Starting point is 00:03:05 and they're pizza flavored. Interesting. Those are, and just so you guys know, there are four new flavors at Buffalo Wild Wings. They introduce new flavors all the time. It's what the fuck they do. That's how they keep hooking you fish in. It's just like, oh, look at this piece of cheese and it's just, oh, yank.
Starting point is 00:03:21 And that's, yep, you're in for it. So they introduce four new flavors. Do they have piece of cheese wings yet? I mean, there was kind of cheese, and it's just, oh, yank, and that's, yep, you're in for it. So they introduced four new flavors. Do they have piece of cheese wings yet? I mean, there was kind of cheese on these, so, yeah, kind of. I mean, there's like a Parmesan. Doesn't matter. Four new flavors, three flavors, the Carolina Reaper, the, what was this, the Orange Chicken,
Starting point is 00:03:39 and then the Lemon Pepper Wet are all permanent additions to their menu. Pizza Wings is what we're going to be reviewing today and giving the score to because it's the only limited time food there. That's the flavor where they're going, this is only for right now. You have to get it right now. You can't get it later. What if they change it and make it permanent? We've done that a couple of times.
Starting point is 00:04:04 Who did that recently? Who just did that? It was Panda Express. Panda Express. They heard our review, and I don't think it was very good. I don't know why they used that. And then they went, now it's permanent. I think it was a spite thing.
Starting point is 00:04:16 Yeah. They made it permanent, and then they sent FaceJam an email, and they said, we win. We're trying to figure out how to get back at them. They've been deleting those emails from fast food places that say we win. But you made a smart move here with the orange chicken because
Starting point is 00:04:32 you went with boneless because we are still just rooting around in our cars. Right. And bones, it's already messy enough. Bones would have been a whole other deal. We don't need a whole bucket of bones. Honestly, with the wings that Buffalo Wild Wings make, you might have bones would have been a whole we don't need a whole bucket and i think bones honestly with with the wings that buffalo wild wings make you know you might have like a bone purist there i
Starting point is 00:04:51 always get boneless there i don't go there very often but when i do i always get boneless i don't need to mess around it's buffalo wild wings chicken isn't about the chicken it's about the 75 different flavor sauces they have yeah that is right And just get it inside of you as quickly as possible. Yeah. Right. Exactly. And bones just get in the way of that. And boneless, as we know, is 100% eat.
Starting point is 00:05:11 Correct. You ordered it in bulk. So it was a lot. So you decided to get a second flavor just so we weren't sucking down 20 pizza wings. Yeah. 60 pizzas. I mean, we ended up with 60 wings. We didn't eat all of them
Starting point is 00:05:25 because for some reason, Buffalo Wild Wings just fills you up in a way that makes you not feel good. It's fast. It fills you up so fast. They drop straight down to the bottom of your stomach. Here's my theory. Here's what I think happens.
Starting point is 00:05:39 It is. And I was going to say this before the episode, but I wanted to save it because it feels scientific. Okay. I wasn't feeling full as I was just eating them. And then I took a drink of water and I felt so immediately full. It was awful. Do you think it's like those little balls that get big in water?
Starting point is 00:05:59 Yep. I think that's what it is. So your tummy's full of chicken balls that get big in water. And you're sucking down a big gulp right now. I'm drinking water right now! Uh oh! I'm gulping! Soon I'll be gasping! He's gonna inflate. Uh oh! He's getting too big. You're gonna have to roll
Starting point is 00:06:14 me home. So... Buffalo Wild Wings is a place we've all been before, right? Like... Think so? Maybe once, yeah. I've been to lots of wing places. What's the one over there? We're not reviewing them.
Starting point is 00:06:32 What's the one? It's like a local place over on 45th and Red River. That doesn't matter. What do you think the show is? What do you think this is? Where are you? We're reviewing Buffalo Wild Wings. Yeah, I'm just telling you.
Starting point is 00:06:42 Every one of these places is the same, so I feel disagree to this disagree hard hard disagree yeah it's a sports bar that sells you chicken i to to me the it's what you're talking about with the boneless wings versus the bone-in wings with buffalo wild wings the sauce is the reason that you're eating at buffalo wild wings at every other chicken place when you get the chicken wings you should probably get bone in because that's better and they're whatever chicken wings, you should probably get bone-in because that's better than whatever chicken nugget. And they're also, you're probably dealing with like eight flavors. Yep. This makes sense that he asked about a cheese, if there was a cheese on it, as if this was new.
Starting point is 00:07:15 Because Buffalo Wild Wings, 14 of their flavors are Parmesan something. Garlic Parmesan, hot Parmesan. They Parmesan the shit out of their wings. They truly do. garlic parmesan hot parmesan apartment they parmesan the shit out of their wings they truly do so i don't think that it's the same as other wing places but you could use it to compare and contrast the one time you've been to buffalo wild wings i don't know if there's a buffalo wild wings clone uh-huh i like it i don't know of that uh what's that thing wing street isn't really i mean i guess it's trying to be close but it's not again these are like flavored chicken nuggets that they really are they really are they're like fatter chicken nuggets
Starting point is 00:07:50 yeah they're just round i mean if you were to get wings from like another place they would be so much like they would just be better right like but also you wouldn't get pizza flavor i would think so so i've had higher quality chicken higher quality chicken wings eating at other places. It's possible, yes. Oh, I think so, yeah. You also wouldn't order 60 of them. Yes. You would probably order eight and be satisfied.
Starting point is 00:08:15 I'll be honest, I think we would have been satisfied with eight here. But, well, you could be right. But here's the thing about, I will say, the experience of Buffalo Wild Wings as opposed to what we just did. You don't go to Buffalo Wild Wings to say, they got really good chicken. Yeah, you go to watch the big game and be in the commercials. Go there and watch the big game if you want. Or like me, find the day that has no games and then go there so there's not a bunch of people yelling and screaming and shit. And you eat 40 wings over the course of several hours and you just drink a shitload of beer and you just hang out there.
Starting point is 00:08:55 It's a very nice just like, want to go grab a beer? Sure. But instead of eating french fries or mozzarella sticks and they, I mean, I know they have french fries. They probably have other appetizers and shit. You just get wings because you can order, like, I usually would get, say, 20 of them and just get, like, four different flavors. Yep. So you mix and match. You get the sauce.
Starting point is 00:09:15 But it's more about, like, to me, going, having a beer, hanging out, and I guess I'll eat chicken because it's, while it's, like's like lesser chicken it's more sustenance than just straight apps like chips you know or something like that that was mostly my experience at Buffalo Wild Wings when I went I feel like you're right it's definitely it's definitely like where you go when you
Starting point is 00:09:39 go back home for Thanksgiving for like a week and you see some friends from high school and it's like what do you guys want to go do tonight but it's not late enough to go to a bar they're like well we can go to buffalo wild wings and you're like well i guess the lakers game is on so we can do that right and so that's what you end up doing and you go oh this is like you get there and you start eating and you go you know what maybe i Maybe I think too low on this place. This isn't so bad. But then you leave and it leaves your memory like a dream.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Yeah. I know a couple of times I've been to Buffalo Wild Wings because I went, oh, there's one. Look. Oh, man. Nailed it. Nailed beer. Yep. There's one right there.
Starting point is 00:10:20 Let's go drink beer and I guess get some garlic Parmesan wings. Exactly. Man. Exactly. Maybe I go all the time and just forget as soon as I it's possible It's totally oh, I bet if you would have walked in to pick up Your eyes like roll back is like your memories of him on the wall Remember 2015?
Starting point is 00:10:46 It says like wing champion. It's like a picture of him flexing. That's where it's like Jordan the Grackle Sweers. The Grackle! It's everyone doing like a bird pose and they're like, that's classic Jordan. They're like, Grack attack. Do the Grack attack. So that's some, you know. I just like war like, crack attack. Do the crack attack. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:06 So that's, you know. I just like warg into a bird. It's fine. Yeah. Buffalo Wild Wings is fine. It's fine. I've never thought about it. No. Since we were here eating, going, man, I'm hungry.
Starting point is 00:11:17 Let's get Buffalo Wild Wings. It's not far. That would never happen. It's not far. It's really not far from here at all. It's over by the Applebee's, right? Yeah. It would be, let's go drink during the middle of the day.
Starting point is 00:11:30 Yes. For moderately priced beers. I don't remember what they are, but they're not too expensive. It's probably like two or three bucks for a beer. I would say that the comparable thing that people do out here is Pluckers. It's the same fucking thing to me. Pluckers tastes exactly the same. It's like exactly the same thing. But again, I've never heard of Pluckers. It's the same fucking thing to me. Pluckers tastes exactly the same. It's like exactly the same thing.
Starting point is 00:11:46 But again, I've never heard of Pluckers until I moved here. I'd never seen one. I'd never heard of it. It's an Austin thing, right? Or is it just Central Texas thing? I don't know. It's probably, I bet it's a Texas thing. But to me, it's the exact same thing. Given the choice between
Starting point is 00:12:01 the 50 cent wings from Applebee's and going to a Buffalo Wild Wings just down the street, who wins that? I think it depends if you want food or not. I think Applebee's has more food. It's not great, but again to me, Buffalo Wild Wings is, you got those chicken balls, and that's what
Starting point is 00:12:18 I'm going to eat. I'll tell you one thing, if you're looking to drink, don't go to Applebee's because you got to get three drinks in before you get anything. Yeah, but they were just a dollar each. It depends. If you want looking to drink, don't go to Applebee's because you got to get three drinks in before you get anything. Yeah, but they were just a dollar each. It depends. You know, if you want like a, I don't think they sell like fruity mixed drinks at Buffalo Wild Wings, but maybe they do. I bet they do.
Starting point is 00:12:34 I couldn't tell you. I only ever ordered beer there. Yeah, me too. wings and one dollar mix drink things from applebee's versus the buy one get one from uh in like happy hour pricing from like buffalo wild wings dude you could like you can flip a coin i feel like you're gonna be fine yeah yeah i feel like buffalo wild wings is probably less bright yes and again as long as there's not a game on it'd be a better hangout spot than forget about that variety there is only one flavor of that applebee's that wing you absolutely you hit the nail on the head because if you go to it's true if you go to buffalo wild wings you can get fucking
Starting point is 00:13:14 nuts dude but if you go to applebee's it's one but you know is that maybe the crunch of the applebee's one is the one that you want who knows dude gotta crunch that apple wow wow also you can go and get the chicken, you know, Tuesdays or Thursdays or whatever, and they don't have the 50 cent wings right now at Applebee's, so I guess that kind of settles it, huh? You could get the artichoke dip, though. This was just a hypothetical thought exercise. No, I
Starting point is 00:13:35 appreciate it. I appreciate it. We should, guys, let's jot it down. We need to start taking notes. This should be a new thing about what we're gonna do when we can go to restaurants again. Yes. Not for the show, but to talk about on the show. That's a new segment. That can replace the van
Starting point is 00:13:52 segment of like, what was our little adventure? Yeah, because then we could just say like, hey, by the way, we went to Buffalo Wild Wings. Remember that episode? And then it's like a good like we'll trick the audience into going back and listening to it again oh this is great you know what i mean
Starting point is 00:14:09 but i'm like i think i listened to it but i don't really remember it and i'll just go go stop the one you're on now go listen to it yeah and tune this in you'll be like whoa smart that's how we can you know when we start having to like repeat restaurants that's how we get them we hook them yeah smart and we just get marketing the just inflate the numbers on the other episodes, too. See what I'm doing? Like magic votes. You're not looking at what I'm doing. Oh!
Starting point is 00:14:34 You're hooking them, baby. I'm hooking them. See? You live here 10 years. Yeah. You pick up a thing or two. People like football. Yep. Yes, they do. Okay, should we get in some facts? Yeah, let's learn about something. All right.
Starting point is 00:14:47 Teach me. Prepare to be taught. Started in Ohio in 1982, the original name of the restaurant was Buffalo Wild Wings and Weck. Weck being a regional sandwich from Buffalo that was offered at the restaurant in the beginning. What's in a Weck? buffalo that was offered at the restaurant in the beginning what's in a weck it's a uh it's like a almost like a kaiser roll kind of a thing but it's salted with oh some kind of seed on the top and
Starting point is 00:15:13 then it's like an au jus dip kind of like a french dip sandwich the reason they use that bread is because it holds up a little bit um so it's just it's like an au jus french dip thing but it's like a buffalo thing and so when they started this restaurant, they're like, buffalo, right? And also it was called BW3. That was the shortening of it because it was Buffalo Wild Wings and Weck. So everywhere I saw it written was BW3. And I went, oh, that's weird. Weck is a horrible name for a sandwich.
Starting point is 00:15:42 Yeah. I feel like I'm mispronouncing it. I think it's like German or something. Right. Yeah. I feel like I'm mispronouncing it. I think it's like German or something. Right. It also just makes me think of wet. Yes. Yeah. Like he's talking about the new flavor.
Starting point is 00:15:51 It is. The sandwich is wet. You dip it. It's made to get wet. You're supposed to get it wet. So you can call it wet. A wet weck. Do you think they thought that would be the big thing?
Starting point is 00:16:00 People would go, they're coming for the wings and wecks. Yeah. I guess it just didn't hit. Gotta get my weck on. It was a small, you know, it starts as like a small restaurant. This isn't like a Long John Silver's, hey, we just started as like a franchise thing. How dare you mention that?
Starting point is 00:16:13 It's a restaurant, just like you would go to any place here. We're trying to destroy them. Yeah, and I am from inside out. We hate them. Yeah. I think that it's a restaurant and you offer, because if they offer just wings, if you offer just wings, it's not enough to be a restaurant.
Starting point is 00:16:28 So it's like, here's a sandwich also. So people are like into that. So then what they did was when they blew up, they sold Weck out. They're like, we don't need you anymore. They took Weck out back. They whacked the Weck. Stupid.
Starting point is 00:16:48 Okay, oh, here's a fun fact. One time, my friend Brian ate like 45 wings in one sitting. What flavor? Probably a lot of different ones, right? There were a few different ones. I remember specifically how it looked because when they brought him the wings, it was fine.
Starting point is 00:17:08 But then as he was finishing them, he would pile the bones into like a little container. Oh, he didn't do boneless? Yeah, he didn't bone in. Oh my God. And so he was like cleaning the bones and putting them in the container
Starting point is 00:17:19 and he wouldn't let him take the container away because he went, no, this is the chicken graveyard. And he kept fucking stacking them up. So he ordered 45 at once and was just like, I'm a crush on him. No, no, no. You order like 20 and then you order 15 and then you do like another 10, you know? Gotcha, gotcha. So he was eating them and just kind of like slamming them down, slamming them down.
Starting point is 00:17:39 And then when you look at the pile of bones, it really made you go like, yeah, we're all going to die someday, huh? And he went, yep, just like these chickens. He's like, here's the graveyard. That had to be a mess too, right? Because you're probably dealing with like a couple little bones per wing, right? Yeah. Like two or three. There's like drumstick, but then you have like the flat, so you got to like crack it and shit.
Starting point is 00:18:01 Why? A lot of chickens died for that meal. That's, I mean, probably not that many chickens, honestly. They're pretty small. They're little balls. But these were bone in. How many bones does a chicken have? Four or five? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:18:16 I don't know. Maybe was there like a shrink ray going on? How do you? Did they have like a regular chicken or are they just killing baby chickens or? How do they get the bones little? Oh. I think that's just how chicken bones are maybe. No.
Starting point is 00:18:31 What? How big do you think chickens are? I like when they breed the boneless chickens. Because then I can just eat them straight. I pluck them right out of the egg. Crack it open, suck it down. Eat them raw. I suck it down.
Starting point is 00:18:47 I dip them in some mango habanero and I suck them down. They scream on the way down, but the screaming stops when they hit my stomach acid. It turns into like a slow, like, bloop, bloop, bloop, bloop. Like a bubble pop in like a swamp. And then that's what my burps are. Well, you see the bubble come up, right? It's like, it pops, and then their soul comes back out up my throat and out my mouth. I don't know if PETA's going to approve of this bit.
Starting point is 00:19:19 I don't think they would approve of this show. They, dude, here's the thing. They're super cool. It is cool. They're just so nice. Here's the thing. I like when I get a letter and I open it and I go, oh, it's a decapitated cat's head. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:38 And it says, this is your fault. And it's written in blood. Yeah, you did this. Don't worry, this blood is from a baby human, not a cat. But we did cut the cat's head off because we couldn't find a good enough picture. But this cat died for the cause. Anyway, B-Dubs is the largest purveyor of draft beer in the United States, selling everything from Budweiser to local craft beers.
Starting point is 00:20:04 By the numbers, if you're a craft beer guy, there's no better place to show off your expertise in beer than your local Buffalo Wild Wings, where you can quickly become known as that guy. Damn, dude. So you go there and you just start, like, picking up other just, like, fat dudes eating wings and drinking beer. Hey, want to know about this beer?
Starting point is 00:20:27 I don't know. I'm just saying I know the demographic of that place. You know what I mean? It's not really a place you go to show off, you know? Oh, what are you doing? I'm going to go pick up some ladies tonight. Where are you going? Buffalo Wild Wings?
Starting point is 00:20:40 There's probably some singles there. Right. I'm trying to help them. I'm trying to give them like a I'm trying to give them like an old school TGI Fridays feel you know what I mean like gotta be a singles pick up place and maybe beer guys can be the first ones there
Starting point is 00:20:54 and then everyone else will flock there to learn about beer and then just a bunch of beer guys telling each other about beer jerking each other off and going ooh the hops this one's too hoppy. It's not hoppy enough! I'll kill you! But then, what happens
Starting point is 00:21:10 is... This one doesn't taste like a 78. Guys, calm down. Have 20 or 30 more wings. Chill out. We're adults. Okay? Oh man, the IBUs are off the charts. Then the souls start flying all around the room.
Starting point is 00:21:25 It's like Ghostbusters. It's like the library scene. Things are flying off the shelves. And then there's like the little baby chicken souls. There's just baby chickens screaming. After struggling financially for a few years, Buffalo Wild Wings was sold to Rourke Capital Group, the parent company that is credited with turning around Arby's
Starting point is 00:21:44 due to COVID restrictions. I, Eric, was unable to enter the B-Dubs restroom to see if I could get my dick melted, but we will have to assume that that is the new game plan until we are allowed to independently verify. Yeah, that's just the go-to for them. They immediately just install super hot urinals. Yeah, you figure they're testing it out in that Colorado Arby's or whatever.
Starting point is 00:22:10 Yeah, they're just the test market. And then now the Rourke financial group was like, hmm, I'm buying other restaurants. What other dicks can I melt? And that's the way it works. I would think. They probably think they're going like a certain dickographic. We want to melt dicks of all shapes, sizes, colors, and creeds.
Starting point is 00:22:31 I think it's probably beer guys. I think they're trying to get beer guys in to melt their dicks. They're just trying to nip them in the bud. Nip them in the dick. There's just too many of you. Come to Buffalo Wild Wings. Have some beer, eat 30 or 40 wings, and then get your
Starting point is 00:22:47 dick melted. That's their end goal. When Buffalo Wild Wings goes out of business, because there's no more beer guys, they've done their job. We did it. They flipped that sign from open to close for the last time, and the CEO
Starting point is 00:23:03 smiles. My work here is done. Oh, man. Finally, the last fact. In 2017, there was a rumor that Buffalo Wild Wings store policy was to turn down the volume when the national anthem was playing and that this new company policy started on 9-11. Interesting. This is like a McMillions tie-in.
Starting point is 00:23:25 B-dubs released a statement claiming it has no such policy, but if that's true, then why do I turn down the volume on all TVs in the restaurant every Thursday night before the football game starts? Why do you? Check and
Starting point is 00:23:42 That's a real like, according according to rumors I'm starting situation. There was a guy... What's the answer? So there was a guy in California who worked at Buffalo Wild Wings who would turn down the volume of the national anthem, and then when people would go, why are you doing that? He would go, it's store policy so then on the internet people were like
Starting point is 00:24:08 what the fuck is with this because everyone picked up on it and they said there's no such policy we don't know what the fuck is going on the CMO the guy who like runs those chains out there or whatever went that guy's no longer with the company he's let go before the statement's
Starting point is 00:24:24 even released we don't know why he did that and we wish he never did well eric i just gotta say why did you do it then yeah when did you work at b-dubs i didn't have to another another brave american started that i'm simply following suit by walking into i I say, waiting all day for Sunday night. And I turn it down. Eric walked in and they went, who turned down this volume again? And Eric stood up and said, I'm Spartacus. Anywho, bubble wild wings. There you go.
Starting point is 00:25:02 Those are just the facts. Much like the restaurant, I'm not retaining any of that information. I mean, yeah. I mean, he went in swinging on fact number two with his friend Brian ate 45 wings. Usually that'd be closer to the bottom, I think. You know what I mean? Yeah, I wanted to let you know about the Brian thing pretty off the top. Honestly, that's when I was worried.
Starting point is 00:25:23 I was like, does he have any facts? What do you mean? These are was worried. I was like, does he have any facts? What do you mean? These are all facts. I'm just saying. Excuse me. The largest purveyor of draft beer being sold to the Arby's group. I read it. I know. I just read it. If the story of Brian eating 45 wings is true, it's probably the most factual fact he's ever told on this show. And I just can't imagine Eric has the capacity to invent the whole WEC thing. That's got to be true too. It seems
Starting point is 00:25:49 a little above his pay grade. I still think it's a typo. If he told me he made that sandwich up, I would be like, oh, I bought it. I never heard of it. It just seems like what an uninteresting name, right? Like I would have come up with something better than WEC. Yeah, it just sounds like something you just plop down.
Starting point is 00:26:06 Weck. I just assumed it was real, and I just kept nodding. Sure, yeah, weck. And he's like, and then, you know, it's like the bread, and then you can dip in it. I'm like, huh? You could have had me at three, four words tops, and I was sold. Anyway, I look forward to people from Buffalo being like, I can't believe they've never heard of a weck before. Yeah, right?
Starting point is 00:26:26 Both people from Buffalo that listen to this podcast are going to be pissed. Go Bills. They're going to be like, I used to eat wecks all the time. When they were only a nickel. Back when I had teeth. I'd chomp them. Now I suck them dry. Yeah, now I suck them.
Starting point is 00:26:43 Thank God they're wet. And I'm dead. That's a ghost. We do well with ghosts, too. Yeah. Hey, whatever it takes. Whatever to get those downloads up, man. You know, what happens is, this is interesting, if you're one to believe in the paranormal,
Starting point is 00:26:58 I myself, huge believer, everyone knows this. believer everyone knows this um it's said that a lot of spirits they can't uh you know move on to the next plane if they have either it's usually some sort of like hate murder thing or if they have unfinished business if it's like a soul with something left to do and the numbers for people that die while listening to the face jam and they got to finish the episode they're astronomical so they come back just it's just a finish that's why we target the old demographic so that we get all the ghost numbers exactly they just nobody's keep going nobody's getting those nobody is an untapped market right untapped market and like you know the whole thing with ghosts and like electromagnetic
Starting point is 00:27:45 fields and like equipment and stuff, like they don't even need, they just go, I'll just fly into this guy's phone. Boom, I'm listening to Face Jam. Yeah. Yeah, so if the episode ever plays randomly, like your phone's not messing up, you got a Face Jam ghost. You know the dial on your old radio's going
Starting point is 00:28:01 and it just stops on Face Jam? Here's another thing that's huge with ghosts. Do we play this over the radio? Yeah. Hang on. I want to know what the huge thing with ghosts is. Well, it will happen when the ghosts do it. The huge thing with ghosts is like, once I'm dead, I'm non-corporeal.
Starting point is 00:28:19 I can go fly there. Hang on. He left. He's got to hear this. Yeah. I know. Somebody left. It's Eric. No, I'm still here. Oh. What was that? left. He's gotta hear this, Leah. Somebody left. It's Eric.
Starting point is 00:28:27 No, I'm still here. That was Nick's other one. As soon as that sound went off, that was a ghost! It distracted me. No, you just said it was Nick. What happens is, the ghost can go, I can go fly there and look at them while they do the part. We're surrounded by ghosts right now! We have a dead
Starting point is 00:28:44 studio audience watching. They see the food. They see us. They see us looking. They know who's talking. They hear the beeps. You know, that woman's looking around because I just beeped. There's so many people in this parking lot.
Starting point is 00:28:56 There's so many people in this parking lot. Sorry, it was a ghost. The ghost made me do it. That woman's on the phone. Anyway, just something to think about. Just something to think about. We should make more ghost-oriented merch. Okay.
Starting point is 00:29:12 Just in time for Christmas? We'll do like a, well, ghosts are dead all year round. They just get, like, October's their thing, you know? But maybe we could do some kind of like face jam betting. Oh. You know, if they want to just like. Oh, Oh. You know, if they want to just like... Oh, yeah. You know, sometimes they like to go like, oh, look, I'm in a sheet.
Starting point is 00:29:29 You know? Yeah, like a Beetlejuice. It'd be cool if we could market that. Okay. They're like, oh, oh, oh, God, I'm being haunted. And I don't know what Face Jam is, but maybe I'll listen to it. You know? It's like, boo, listen to Face Jam.
Starting point is 00:29:42 Ghosts are out there doing the Face Jam challenge. Yeah, dude. That'd be awesome. This is good out there doing the Face Jam challenge. Yeah, dude. That'd be awesome. This is good. I think I feel like we've had two marketing meetings in this episode. I'm going to get you. I'm going to get you scared full. Now listen to Face Jam.
Starting point is 00:29:56 I need to finish listening to the Arby's episode. That's his unfinished business. My dick melted. But we hook him. We hook him. And he's like, wait, there's a new episode in two weeks. I got to hang around till then. And then it never stops.
Starting point is 00:30:12 Yep. But here's the thing. New episode in two weeks. Hey, guess what? New episode every week right now, baby. Yeah, dude. Okay, so we had the first Face Jam van episode drop last week. The special Voodoo Face Jam van.
Starting point is 00:30:30 Voodoo Ranger came in. Great first episode for that. Got us the van. It was a great first episode. Great guest. So we're alternating. Okay, guest. We're alternating.
Starting point is 00:30:40 Guest was great. I thought Lindsay did a great job. We should have her on more. People seem to be, I don't know if you read the comments, people were, like, really excited to have Lindsay. And I feel like, as a first guest, it's, like, kind of who you, it's who you want, right? She knows the show.
Starting point is 00:30:54 She knows how to, like, keep up. She's quick. She's sharp. She had, like, great reviews. You know, like, when you, like, you first meet someone and you think you like them, but then the more they come around, you realize, like, you don't really like them at all. I'm just saying. You know.
Starting point is 00:31:07 Wouldn't want her to overstay her welcome. Oh, I don't think she would be overstayed. She should probably go out on top. Then the audience is going to turn on her. No, I think if we had more Lindsay. I don't think we need to put her through that. I don't think anyone would get sick of that. Let me tell you. Next week, though. Next week, when she's not
Starting point is 00:31:23 coming back. Yeah, we have a different guest next week. So next week when she's not coming back. Yeah, we have a different guest next week. So we have three more special episodes. But again, it's alternating. So you're listening to this new FaceTime on Tuesday. Next Tuesday, van episode. Next one, regular episode. Next one, van episode.
Starting point is 00:31:38 And so on and so forth. You do the math, okay? I think after this one, you've got six more weeks in a row of FaceTime. That's fucking crazy. And the thing is, they're video. Yeah! You don't have to be a ghost to see it! You can go on the Achievement Hunter YouTube channel, and it's there. You can go to RoosterTeeth.com or on the app, and it's there.
Starting point is 00:31:55 So now you can see, here's the video version. We're just in the van, and we're eating. Yeah, and you can see all the Mike arms blocking all their faces. Oh, you can see the shot of Michael's dick just dead on. Yeah, dude. Just boom, down the barrel. Looks good. That was definitely, that was a choice. And then, yeah, it was like a lot of fun to do it though.
Starting point is 00:32:19 I actually fought for that angle. I fought for that. Yeah, he insisted it be shot that way. Yeah, they kept saying saying what if we move it and I said, leave it alone! Leave it! You can see
Starting point is 00:32:30 in episode one I noticed there's a point where you can see something flash by and I'm pretty sure it's someone's head because the cameras
Starting point is 00:32:36 kept turning off constantly. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. That was a big problem. Someone ducking in to like change batteries or something. They didn't get overheated
Starting point is 00:32:43 because it was so fucking hot. Yeah, well, because you could see my dick. Through my pants. You know, I'm not... It wasn't free. So you got three more episodes of that. But the thing is, if you want to watch, you can. If you want to listen, it's still on your regular feed.
Starting point is 00:33:03 So it's like... And the video comes out at 3 a.m. regular feed. So it's like, just bonus. And the video comes out at 3 a.m. too. Yep. It's for those 3 a.m. hours, baby. Yeah, dude. Jam on. It's for the, again, the demographics.
Starting point is 00:33:14 Like, that's usually when they're waking up. Yeah, they're usually getting up right around then. Yep. They wake up. They pop their teeth in. Yeah. They listen to Face Jam. And then they go get some coffee.
Starting point is 00:33:23 They get some breakfast. They read the paper. They go to sleep. Yep. It's about... It's around 6. It's about 6, 6.15am at that point. So it's time for at least a first nap. And you just gotta go from there, you know? They have those, like,
Starting point is 00:33:37 16th century sleep patterns. They have, like, second sleep. Yeah, before the invention of electricity, people used to wake up in the middle of the night and, like, fuck about a little bit for a couple hours and then go back second sleep. Yeah, before the invention of electricity, people used to wake up in the middle of the night and like fuck about a little bit for a couple hours and then go back to sleep. Oh, is that what it's called? I do that.
Starting point is 00:33:51 Is that what it's called? Oh, dude, what's this guy doing? He's trying to film you. It's a ghost. This is what we're going to get next. Yep. This is our next vehicle. What is that?
Starting point is 00:33:59 It's like a big truck with like a crate in the back. We still have the van. We don't need that. Yeah, but we're moving past the van now. We have the van now. Then that's like a crate in the back. We still have the van. We don't need that. Yeah, but we're moving past the van now. We have the van now. Then that's like a crate. It's like a truck bed, but with like wooden sides. People can, we can drive around and put ourselves on display like a parade.
Starting point is 00:34:15 That's a fish tank parade. And then we drive two miles an hour through the streets of Austin while people are screaming, threatening to shoot us. What the fuck are you doing? I'll kill you! I like the sound of this only because it's at least going. It's already better than the van we have.
Starting point is 00:34:34 It's moving. The van goes down a hill. I was going to say neutral, but no, it doesn't move in neutral. No, it certainly does not. Because one of the axles is fucked up or something yeah it couldn't even be towed at one point i saw a comment on the van video and when the van was on the tow truck someone said something like blah blah blah why did they need a dolly for this van something something about like i'm a tow truck guy or i know
Starting point is 00:35:02 a tow truck guy because the fucking wheels didn't even roll. That's why we needed a dolly. They put it on the tow truck and started driving and it was just like a tire left a fucking skid mark across the parking lot. It's so long in this parking lot. You just smelled it.
Starting point is 00:35:22 Can we tell the story about the other part of that situation where we were in the KFC parking lot, which has a small Chase Bank ATM. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And they happened to be filling up the ATM
Starting point is 00:35:40 with some cash, so there was like an, I don't even think it was an armored van, but it was a guy who was doing it, but they had a police. It was like an armed guard. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:49 Yeah. Like a police woman was there. Like, and she just had her like hand on her hip, like where her holster is watching the van get dragged around, pull over in like near it. And like, we were just thinking,
Starting point is 00:36:03 they think this is going to be the weirdest robbery. Monkey mask van hops out. Nick's sitting in the van with a monkey mask, staring at the ATM machine. And this woman's just staring at the van. And Nick was like, we got to go. We got to go, man. And he immediately took the mask off.
Starting point is 00:36:20 He's just holding the mask because he didn't want to be wearing it next to someone depositing cash. It's like something out of a movie. We're like, we're gonna hit him with this like distraction of the van. And then the monkey mask man hops out and robs him. It wasn't even just
Starting point is 00:36:35 a face jam logoed van and a tow truck, but like, oh, something's wrong. Gotta pull over right next to this ATM machine. It was like the Italian job. Yeah. This fucking stupid. Anyway, go watch those episodes. Our escape plan.
Starting point is 00:36:50 Yeah. Our escape plan would have been like drop it off the tow truck and drive away. If you like those episodes, leave comments and, you know, rate it and everything. But let Voodoo Ranger know that you like the episodes. Because I think that's a great sponsorship for us. I liked it. It fits, man. It's a food.
Starting point is 00:37:11 I'm just thinking about Voodoo Ranger and feeling good. You look gassy. Thinking about those 9%s we were slugging down. Oh, man. Yeah, let Voodoo Ranger know what you think about them. Because I think that helps us out. Maybe we can do more of those in the future. Here's the thing. If there was Face Jam every week, that would be awesome.
Starting point is 00:37:30 I would love to do Face Jam every week. We could record things in the back of that van or whatever. It's just right now it's not viable right now. We just don't have... We can't. There's a lot of things. Especially now. It's just like time in our schedules, two weeks works, the food. format right yeah the for the format like we gotta we gotta like scrape
Starting point is 00:37:51 sometimes every two weeks but doing those special episodes what's nice is it's not the usual format so we don't have to rely on like the limited edition food but we still get to jam it up i really like what we came up with with like With specifically comparing this food to the beer and how does the beer make the food taste. That was fun. So thanks Voodoo Ranger for doing that and just go watch them. Let us know. Thank you. Look forward to the next six weeks of content and maybe when that's all done
Starting point is 00:38:15 we'll know who the president is. I told you I won. Congratulations. Thank you. And that's Spittin' Silly slash the van segment. We did both. That was great. We did do both.
Starting point is 00:38:28 Yeah. Seamless. Jordan, go ahead. Oh, man. Take it away. Yeah, we're like 40 minutes in. That was a lot of Spittin' Silly. Because we're having so much Fun
Starting point is 00:38:45 And ghosts We're having so much Ghosts We're always having ghosts They're everywhere I'm scared Go for it Jordan The Buffalo Wild Wings Pizza Wings
Starting point is 00:39:00 New pizza wing sauce features garlic parmesan There's the cheese Sauce dusted with tomato powder and basil for a classic pizza flavor without all the carbs. Yeah, no carbs on these chicken. Yep. Definitely no carbs in the deep fried balls of chicken. Hey, what?
Starting point is 00:39:19 No, no carbs. Why do I feel like I ate nothing but carbs? Yeah, no shit. I don't feel like I got any protein out of that. It felt like strictly carbs. Why do I feel like I ate nothing but carbs? Yeah, no shit. I don't feel like I got any protein out of that. It felt like strictly carbs. No, it didn't feel like protein. I have like a headache. Here's what they say. Do you want me to read the orange chicken wings? Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:39:38 Alrighty. They have to say this. New orange chicken sauce offers an Asian comfort food experience with a sweet orange citrusy flavor that's pumped up with a hint of cayenne peppers and soy. Each order comes with a special Buffalo Wild Wings fortune cookie. Where's
Starting point is 00:39:54 my fortune cookie? Eric! Does? Whoa. Did not get those. Uh-oh. What the fuck? What's going on, guys? Not my phone. Jordan? Hang on. Jordan, what happened? Somebody getting a ghost. It's going on, guys? Jordan? Hang on. Jordan, what happened? Somebody getting a ghost. It's not me. Nick?
Starting point is 00:40:08 Nick? He's got that face. He put up a finger. It was the middle finger. His wife just went in a labor. It was the middle finger. Tell her to hold it in. We're doing face jam.
Starting point is 00:40:24 Hold it in. We're doing face jam. Hold it in. Dude, if you hurry, this kid needs some wings. Eric, give him the wings. If that happens, I'll give you the wings. Baby's first sauce. Oh my god Ketchup
Starting point is 00:40:46 Whoa he's already talking How old is he? Three days What a burger spicy ketchup Fucking knew it Damn dude So yeah no fortune cookie what the fuck No I didn't get a fortune cookie it's fucked up
Starting point is 00:41:03 Hit me with that press material, though. It's fucked up. I want to say real quick, there's so much description on these orange chicken wings. We're not reviewing them, so I'll just say none of that is on the chicken. No, I don't feel like that was an apt description of what we ate. I was surprised there was cayenne peppers and soy. If you gave me those, right? If you gave me those and said, what flavor are these?
Starting point is 00:41:26 I would never have guessed orange. No. It was just sort of a saucy chicken and like maybe knowing they were orange chicken and like searching my mind as I ate it. I was like, maybe I can kind of see. On like the third one, I willed orange into existence as I was eating it. And on the third wing, orange was born. It really was like, it was like their Asian zing, but not as good.
Starting point is 00:41:52 That's how it felt to me. It was just kind of like, why did you make this? Weird that this is the permanent one. Yeah, they're making this permanent. Why? Press material. Fucking insane. Guests love our sauces, and the flavor variety is really what sets Buffalo Wild Wings apart from the competition, said Jamie Carowan, vice president of brand menu and culinary of Buffalo Wild Wings.
Starting point is 00:42:14 There it is. That's a new one. Put that on your bingo card. But we felt there was room for even, turning the page over, more innovation when it comes to saucing our wings. Oh, yeah. Sauce me up. So we dialed up the creativity in a way that should get wing lovers talking. We're talking.
Starting point is 00:42:35 Should have said flapping. We should own the conversation when it comes to wing sauce flavors, and we intend to do that. What the fuck are they talking about? Guys, listen. We need to own the conversation about wing sauce flavors. It is up to us. It is our mandate.
Starting point is 00:42:53 Are you talking about wing sauce? Shut the hell up. That's our thing. We own that. I'm going to sue the shit out of you. Oh, there's a guy right where I was yelling. That'll teach him to try and talk about wing sauce. He's coming over to kick your ass.
Starting point is 00:43:11 We own it. He's coming over to kick your ass right now. I'm locking my door. Hey, what the fuck? You better. What the fuck does that mean? We should own the conversation. That's what I thought.
Starting point is 00:43:22 Keep walking. Yeah, you showed him, Michael. To me, that's such like a marketing bullshit. It sounds like they're trying to sell me like an iPhone or like a piece of tech, not wings. Yep. Here at Apple, we love to dominate the competition. They have their bubble of wild wings. We need to dominate the conversation.
Starting point is 00:43:44 I'll tell you this. It was entertaining if there's a conversation you're having about wings or sauce and it's not about Buffalo Wild Wings we've failed right we fucked up what wow there you go
Starting point is 00:44:01 getting the food I got the food you can say I did a good job. Here's what I will say. Why were you so late? Because I had to get the food. Oh, because I had a meeting with... There it is.
Starting point is 00:44:12 Because I had a meeting with not our company and not the next company up, but the next company above that. Above that and off to the side? Yeah. above that. Above that and off to the side? Yeah, I couldn't leave early, but luckily they ended on time, and then I just had to go pick up
Starting point is 00:44:31 the food. I like how your first answer was, I was getting the food. But you always get the food. No, no, I was getting the food, but I had to, oh, dude, and then it's over by that Applebee's? It's over by that Applebee's, so I had to wait that fucking night? He had to stop for a couple of cranberry vodkas.
Starting point is 00:44:46 And you have to go up that hill and... That's what it is. Why, I've been wondering why you've been rubbing your nose the whole time. You went to Applebee's.
Starting point is 00:44:52 I didn't. Are you guys talking about TGI Fridays? TGI Fridays. Do you guys want to take two? Do you guys want to rewind? No. Go ahead, take two.
Starting point is 00:44:58 Yeah, go ahead. It wouldn't make sense because you wouldn't buy it. You would have to say I was over by that Friday's. Yeah. Can't do a take two. There's no Fridays over there.
Starting point is 00:45:05 Yeah, right. So there's no take two. It's just a terrible slam. This is why we don't do this show live. Now we're losing the ghosts. Guys, stop fighting. Welcome back. Eat 30 more wings.
Starting point is 00:45:18 Is that what you think fighting is? I just wanted a hard cut to like a welcome back. You got it. So there you have it. And that's the show. See you next week for the next van episode. Oh, no, we still have to rate the food. We're still doing that?
Starting point is 00:45:39 I thought we didn't do that anymore. No, no, we still rate the food. We saw the van. We didn't rate the food in the van. That's a different show. We totally changed the show and that's what it is now. This is Face Jam plus Ultra.
Starting point is 00:45:49 This is regular Face Jam. This is ghost Face Jam. This is ghost Jam. Ghost Jam. Face Ghost. I'm sensing a new shirt coming out. I would like a ghost on a hat. Oh, is this like a ghost hunting show?
Starting point is 00:46:06 No, it's our food podcast. What don't you get? Make the hat. The ghosts like the food podcast. White ghost on a black hat. Do I have to draw it myself? What's not to understand? Can we get a new segment you're full
Starting point is 00:46:27 just kind of kind of a kind of a spin-off of the fact segment can there be like any like goat ghost related stories i don't want to have any stories in the podcast no well not all right well i'm you know we'll start collecting them now so next time yeah what the hell are we just personal ghost stories uh we're reviewing the food were you rating it okay yeah jordan review this guy's screaming about it we're fighting again guys i'm gonna take that john deere when we're done oh man take them both out for a spin right so the pizza ones um compared to the orange chicken they're definitely the superior choice uh they actually tasted like pizza they kind of tasted like pizza rolls kind of like totino's or something
Starting point is 00:47:17 nailed it so they got like yeah yeah so they got like the basic pizza ish ingredients in there and they dusted it on the chicken and it was a pizza, a chicken vessel for a pizza flavor. So mission accomplished there. Definitely, definitely like in general, low quality food. Like it really does remind me of the Applebee's where it just tastes like microwave nuggets. Yeah. So again, pretty Totino's pizza roll flavor. Sorry, this car Totino's pizza roll flavor. Sorry, this car distracted me. Car distracted you. I could sense it.
Starting point is 00:47:47 It was driving very slow. Well, there was no driver. That's why. It is a ghost? Ghost! I didn't say the G word. I'm just saying. I'm just saying you explain it.
Starting point is 00:47:58 But other than that, like, so I tried some with the blue cheese. Why? Why is this funny? You made a joke. It doesn't happen a lot. It was very funny. We're laughing at it. You explain it.
Starting point is 00:48:15 You fucking. It's on you. Oh, man. So. I'm going to wait until Nick's done. Well, we need those, dude. The first 15 minutes, I didn't hear shit from this guy. I'm like, we're sweating.
Starting point is 00:48:31 I think what happened is I think he snuck some chicken and he was still eating. Yeah, I think you're probably right. He was munching up some chicken balls. Once he finished, yeah, he started going nuts. So, just so I could have the widest breadth of information and data points uh to review this uh accurately i picked one up that didn't have a lot of the sauce on it and ate it plain got all the pizza flavor got another one of those dipped in the blue cheese sauce that we had a bag full of that i think uh nick has already eaten um tried that. Then I did the same thing with some of the ones that had like the sauce on it.
Starting point is 00:49:08 What did they call it? Was it garlic Parmesan? Yes. Yeah. So then I did the same thing there. And so, you know, I really wanted to make sure I had all my bases covered. I knew exactly, you know, the strengths and weaknesses. The problem is I can't remember anything about what I ate.
Starting point is 00:49:26 It has left my mind. It's so... I guess, like a ghost, it's pretty corporeal. Did I even eat it? Did it go right through me? So forgettable. It's non-corporeal. Non-corporeal.
Starting point is 00:49:41 Thank you. I think so. You're correct. People were going to come Thank you. I think so. You're correct. Okay. People were going to come at you. I've already got tweets, and now they look like idiots. Once you said it, somebody paused it and went, fucking idiot! And they came back and went, oh, I should have waited five more seconds. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:01 So go ahead and follow up that tweet with an apology. So yeah, that's the thing. But we're just not in the setting to eat this, you know? We're not. We're really not. In the restaurant, they're made to just be forgettable and shoveled into your... Yeah. It's all living in the moment. And you're like, oh, I love it.
Starting point is 00:50:24 Great. Give me another one i forgot what i just ate yeah let me wash it down with some beer and inflate and you can roll me out of the restaurant so it's a dream i'm just i just i just gotta review what's in front of me um i would have been really curious like what the experience would have been like in in any other time i mean we could have gone it's's open. Pandemic. On the inside. I'm not a maniac. There were people in there eating Buffalo Wild Wings
Starting point is 00:50:50 at like 12 in the afternoon, just ready to die. But yeah, then the problem is it's our last episode. The thing is, I'm not an alarmist. We're the ghosts. Okay. Uh-huh, uh-huh. I think what's more likely is I'd sit there and I would eat it and I'd go,
Starting point is 00:51:07 this is worth killing my parents over. You know what I mean? I'd probably be fine. I just don't know if they're up to that quality. No, you are. You're right. They might be. So Jordan, what do you think is the number?
Starting point is 00:51:22 So I'm giving them a 34 wow okay okay it's just yeah i mean lower than i thought it was gonna be me too i thought he was gonna say 52 well that's more specific than i thought you were gonna guess i was just i just felt i felt like it i felt like that's what he was gonna give it i don't know it just feels like a 34. You're right. The Totino's makes sense. I was trying to figure out what it tasted like. And the Totino's is a better example because it's closer to a softer food item. My brain was thinking combos, which the consistency is totally different because it's like a crunchy pretzel. Yeah, you're right.
Starting point is 00:52:03 But they dust it. It's got the pizza dust that's covered in it. So like as a kid, sometimes maybe I'd just suck on the combo and then just spit it out. It just tastes like it's that tomato and basil flavor that isn't what tomato and basil actually tastes like. Yeah. But I said that while we were eating them. So I had a couple. And then you also got some fries.
Starting point is 00:52:25 So I ate some fries. And then I figured I would try the orange chicken that didn't taste like orange chicken at all. And I said to you at one point, I was like, we were kind of finishing up, getting ready to record. And I go, I got to eat another one because I don't remember what it tastes like. And you were like, yeah, I forgot too. I was like, a minute went by. I had a couple of oranges and I could not even tell you what
Starting point is 00:52:49 like, and it was good. I mean, like Jordan's right with the chicken. It's real inferior chicken, but it's not it's not bad chicken. It's not like chewy or rubbery or like not, it doesn't taste bad. It's just, there's just like nothing to it. I will say the cook is pretty good.
Starting point is 00:53:06 It's like a pretty good, like, you know, it's not undercooked or overcooked. It wasn't, you know, like rubbery. But there's just like, it's just there to fill your stomach and pass along the flavors. Yeah. But you're not biting it, you know, mmm, mmm, it's chicken. Let me savor it, yeah. Yeah, mmm, chicken marsala move over but like the flavoring is gone the second you're done eating it yeah but yeah I think it really I think it's a really a like
Starting point is 00:53:37 hang out for a couple hours snacking on these things while you're just drinking some beer you know getting into fights with ghosts or whatever, and baby chicken spirits flying around. I think it would have rated a lot higher, but I'm just not ready to start hacking through my family yet, so I couldn't sit in the restaurant and eat it. So I'm going to have to go. I probably liked it more than Jordan,
Starting point is 00:54:01 but I think I'm a little more familiar with what their chicken is. I probably liked it more than Jordan, but I think I'm a little more familiar with what their chicken is. But I'm going to give it a 56. Average score, 45. Boom. Yeah. Nailed it. It seems like, yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:54:18 I wish it could have been higher. And I think if we got the full experience, it might have been. But we didn't. We just got the food. And again, not until we were standing here eating it. We knew a week ago we were doing this. I was like, man, so we're just eating Buffalo wild wings and reviewing it based on the taste.
Starting point is 00:54:34 It didn't really hit me. It's not at all how the food should be consumed. Michael just keeps like in the back of his head. It's like, why would we do that? Right? No one would ever do that. It's 45,
Starting point is 00:54:44 45, 46. But under that scenario, that's pretty fair that's yeah yeah it could be a lot worse it's a good score put an asterisk next to this one could have been in the 60s if we were in the restaurant but we weren't so we don't know why is he laughing again we didn't even say anything he's got that he's got the funny gas pumping into his car. Alright, and now, I think we have a snack attack today. We have a lot of snacks.
Starting point is 00:55:14 This is from Kira. This was number 18 on... This was supposed to be the last one to finish the snackening. I can't eat all this? Okay, that's why I'm saying I don't think we can, so we'll have to pick. Here, let's do the dark chocolate mushrooms.
Starting point is 00:55:30 Let's do the... I'll grab a couple of things. Here, we'll do the dark chocolate mushrooms. I want the Hello Kitty. Okay, we'll do the leachy sour belts, and we'll do the Hello Kitty rice crackers. We'll do three. How about that? I like it. I want to point out that
Starting point is 00:55:46 Eric wrote, and I'm just writing verbatim here, Kira sent a lot of snack. Yeah, there's a lot of snack! Many, many snack upon us. He showed you. Blessing upon us, many snack.
Starting point is 00:56:05 Dude, you know what's crazy about this episode super short okay so this is from Kira thank God she wrote how to pronounce it that up aloha from Kira and she is Kira on the RT site she She says, sup fatties. JK, love all four of you guys. Hey! She's talking about Tony.
Starting point is 00:56:37 Here are some local Asian snacks from Hawaii. And then she braids herself for not including something, but Eric didn't highlight those parts. These were highlights so we could read them on the snacking, but, you know. Oh, okay. But it's okay. Yeah, but she's like, sorry I didn't get more stuff. I only sent 47 snacks. This Target bag is fucking full.
Starting point is 00:56:56 Oh, man, there's a PS on the back. That's not me. It's not me. Somebody's very popular today. Do you have to go? Do you need to go to the hospital? Are you sure? Okay. P.S. The ginger candy, I don't think we're eating that, but just so you know, is for after you eat all this crap
Starting point is 00:57:12 and need something to settle your tummy. Oh, maybe we'll crack into that. She's being nice. We'll crack into that after the show today, before we throw up. That's thoughtful. Okay, so we just grabbed, she seriously sent like 12 snacks or something.
Starting point is 00:57:25 We got the dark chocolate. We got the dark chocolate mushrooms. We got the enjoy leaching leachy sour belts. Oh, that's not gum. No. Okay. And the Hello Kitty strawberry rice cracker. Okay.
Starting point is 00:57:41 I'm going to go with the mushroom first. Okay. Excellent. Is it dark chocolate enough for you to be calling it dark chocolate? Yes. Here's what I'll say. Yes, I think so. I'm an experienced eater, as Fazoli's would say, in the realm of-
Starting point is 00:57:57 You're 65? Jack. In the realm of- You're 54. Yeah, you look great though. A lot of questions about that. So many. Like, so many.
Starting point is 00:58:07 Like, an absurd amount. Not enough people going, yeah, right, though. Yeah, that's kind of the worst part, where people go, ha-ha. No one went, ha-ha. Everyone went, really? He is? No, he's not, but I had to look it up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:23 Thanks, guys. Anyway, the milk chocolate mushrooms I've had a whole bunch of times, and those are great. But these ones, they do taste a little different, and the difference is the dark chocolate. Oh, very good. So when you busted these out, I was like, oh, these are $99 easily. But the dark chocolate one are just, you know, they're not quite as good as the milk chocolate ones that I've had. So $95 for me. Whoa. I was going to say $95 too. chocolate one are just, you know, they're not quite as good as the milk chocolate ones that I've had. So, 95 for me. Whoa!
Starting point is 00:58:47 I was going to say 95 too. There you go. 95. That's a 95-er. That little mushroom, that was a 95. It's just like, it's like a little mushroom shaped cookie. Yep. And it's got some chocolate mushy on top. It's a great. It's not a mushroom in any way. It's just chocolate and cookie.
Starting point is 00:59:03 It's a great compliment of textures where like, in any way. It's just chocolate and cookie. It's a great compliment of textures. We're like, you get the crunch of the cookie and then like the chocolate. I put it in my mouth and before I chewed it, I knew it was great. It was like, this is good. And then moving on to that Sour Belt thing. I didn't like that.
Starting point is 00:59:20 I was like, I ate that and I thought I mean, I didn't hate it, but I was like, this sucks after the cookie. Yeah, yeah. It's very artificial lychee flavor. It's very artificial. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:32 And it's like, it looks very much like a stick of gum. It's just like a bit softer and stretchier. And wasn't that sour either? No. No, not really. I'm like, I'm eh on that, you know? I'm like a Sour Patch guy, and that didn't compare to a Sour Patch to me.
Starting point is 00:59:49 I ask for Sour Patch adults because I don't like to eat children. Why don't Sour Patch ghosts? Well, I have them, uh, well, you can't catch them, you know? They're too tricky. Someone's gonna. I just take, what I do is I rip the
Starting point is 01:00:05 Legs off Of A Sour Patch Kid And then I rip the head Off of another one And then I squish them together And then I'd say Nah this is a Sour Patch Man
Starting point is 01:00:14 And then I eat that And it makes me feel better That's a lot of work Well you know Somebody's gotta do it I give that Sour Belt I give it have 40 wasn't a huge fan very low yeah yeah um i liked it um it reminded me of like those sour straws um oh yeah i think
Starting point is 01:00:37 they're called like zowers or something i don't know yeah yeah um but yeah other like the flavor i've never had something as an exotic as a lychee flavor Sour Belt, but it was too artificial, so I'm knocking down for that. I'm going to give it a 66. I liked it. 53 combined score. Very nice. Nice average.
Starting point is 01:00:56 Couldn't live with that. What's this last guy? This is the Hello Kitty Strawberry Rice Cracker. Okay. Right off the bat, disappointed because quickly glancing at the packaging, I expected the Hello Kitty face to be on the cracker. Oh, yeah. And when I took it out, it's not.
Starting point is 01:01:14 It's just on the wrapper. It's like a C3 wrapper. Oh. And I thought, I was like, oh, it's going to be a little thing on there. And because it's pink, too. Instead, it's got these, like, pink warts on it. Right. The Kitty face is pink, like the strawberry.
Starting point is 01:01:26 And then you take the cracker out and it's just kind of like strawberry goo splotches on it. It's quite hard for a rice cracker. Usually like, I guess it's kind of hard to explain. They're hard, but they're softer. You know, it's like, this is like a thin, hard rice cracker. Usually they're bigger. When you bite into's like, this is like a thin, hard rice cracker. Usually they're bigger. When you bite into it, you gotta work it.
Starting point is 01:01:48 Like... Interesting. You really gotta, like, bite into it to break it. I'm not a huge fan of rice crackers. Some people swear by them as snacks. It's just like eating air to me. I don't really understand it.
Starting point is 01:01:59 The strawberry is good. It's a good little, like, ooh. But I also know people eat rice crackers to, like, fill them up but not eat shit. You know? Like, I don't want sugar. It's just like a, I don't think it's a healthy snack, but it's like a cheat. It's like a cheat-free snack. You can just eat a thousand of them, and it's like, they're six calories.
Starting point is 01:02:16 I don't know how the strawberry affects that. I would say. Probably negatively. Probably negatively, because it tastes very sweet. So I feel like you've ruined that. But this is okay. I could eat. I wouldn't buy these, but I would eat these as a snack.
Starting point is 01:02:31 I like them considerably better than rice cakes, regular ones. I would give this 63. Very interesting. I absolutely hated this. Really? Yeah. I don't think strawberry belongs on a rice cracker. I don't think it's a horrible combination of flavors.
Starting point is 01:02:50 To me, it's fine because there's no combination. Rice cracker has no flavor. It's just strawberry. Yeah. What do you think? I don't know. It's kind of like, it tastes like Cocoa Crisp, you know? That's what a rice cracker tastes like.
Starting point is 01:03:03 Okay. Or Golden Crisp. Golden Crisp, not Cocoa Crisp. I was like, that's chocolate. This what a rice cracker tastes like. Okay. Oh, golden crisp. Golden crisp, not cocoa crisp. I was like, that's chocolate. This doesn't taste chocolate. Yeah. Sorry. I'm getting more tweets.
Starting point is 01:03:11 That's another tweet. That's another tweet, man. Another apology. Did you look at your watch? No, I'm moving my arm because it gets hot. But you can see that motion is Jesus Christ. No, I'm holding my arm up to my air conditioning because it keeps getting hot. Guys, it's fine.
Starting point is 01:03:24 We're only an hour and 12 minutes in. Dude, we're this such a long fucking episode. Okay, yeah, they're awful. 29. 46. That's crazy. It's crazy that awful is a 29. Yep. But like, you seemed a lot
Starting point is 01:03:42 more receptive and positive about the chicken, but you give that like a 34. That's crazy to me. You're like, hate it, 29. Eh, you know, okay, 34. There's a scale to like what is a meal and what is a snack, okay? You know what?
Starting point is 01:03:56 And I'm learning that. They're separate and great on a curve. I think I know Jordan, and he flips the script. Yep. But that's good. That's what keeps the listeners coming back. That's what they're here for. Well, that and the ghost talk.
Starting point is 01:04:09 A lot of ghost talk in this episode. We should see if we can interview one of our ghost fans. I bet we can. I bet we can. I don't think I want to do that. I'm getting a vision. You want to send us snacks? You can send us snacks.
