This episode 47, last time it was episode 46 twice, we went to coffee and crisp, and then we went to the studio because I wouldn't sit there. You think no good? I don't trust it. Dude, that thing is like 800 pounds of salt. Yeah, what's also 800 years old. I think they built the school around that. I think if it is going to break here, it's not going to be this giant concrete mausoleum. I'm with you. So, man, I'm just going to be really hard to give it I on this thing

I hope this thing doesn't fucking die again. So last time we lost an episode But don't worry we still recorded one and now yeah, you fucking wish it was a price of one. Yep Now we are Not talking about the pork chop Nimbism probably announcing departures 20 plus year co-workers expansion a state sale findings and pork chop, nimbism, probably, announcing departures, 20 plus year co-workers, expansion, estate sale findings, and, et cetera. But we are at Terrible Love. So this is episode 47.

Terrible Love. Terrible Love Coffee. It's an interesting name for coffee shop. School. And I think this used to be a school. Yeah, it did. It used to be a great school. Purchased by draft house, it became their headquarters.

And still? I don't know. I think so, but it seems like there's other businesses here as well. Yeah, I think it's a... I didn't know the building was purchased by the draft house, but it's one of those things where they just repurposed a really cute old grade school that got decommissioned into multiple businesses. There's a bar slash hotel up in Portland, this reminds me of, called the Kennedy School, where it's a company, a Rodriguez in Brewery, the middle of a Minimons, they're big up there.

And they purchased an old school and they kind of retrofitted it to be a hotel slash pub. And it's still got all the lockers and it's still like all school themed, you can go and like drink at school. Yeah, they have two they have two bars. They have like Honors bar and detention. They're the two different themed bars. There's a swimming pool There's a movie theater There's two restaurants inside of it and then if you get hotel room, your hotel room is one half of a classroom. They like partition the classrooms in the half.

It looks pretty cool. And it's super cool. And it's all school themed. It's cute. It's a fun place to stay. I've never stayed there. I've always wanted to, but I just said just to go to, it was never convenient for one of our work trips to Portland.

And I've just never really gone back. Yeah, I went to Portland a lot because of like, my ex-wife's family and stuff that they were from up that way And so I would go there a bunch But yeah, it's like on the other side of town from where we would stay when we in the Pearl and we would go do Is that what's called the Pearl? Yeah, yeah, where we would do all the ad agency work Yeah, but we found a like here in Austin not at a mug of medicine school. We found like a little Couple of benches in the shade by yeah, it's great by a

pot I don't shade by a pot, I don't know, a pot of plant thing, but I swear it's gonna break. I don't know how you, how do you think this is gonna, it's like this thing and the cockroaches are the only thing that'll survive earth. But yeah, so this is like,

this is Hyde Park technically, right? We're in the smack that part. I have a middle-eyed park, yeah, right? I mean, is high part this is high park technically right? We're in smack that part a little odd park. Yeah, right? I mean Avenue A and B I think now we're between Avenue A and Guadalupe Well Guadalupe's over there. Yeah, I guess so we're on by loops over there and Avenue A is here. Yeah, yeah Yeah, Billy says a it does say a I wonder if bees the other side Well, man, it might have an A may start right there because a doesn't go all the way down. Ah, okay Really? It might, Avenue A may start right there because A doesn't go all the way down. Ah, okay. Ah. Really tight baseball stuff.

I didn't know that and I didn't know that's how this worked. Yeah. Avenue A and Avenue A, Avenue B alley, are right over there. Okay. I don't understand how any of this operates. This is a weird part of town that I never come to.

There's a, there's a, there's a, there's a, there's a, there's a, there's a, there's a, there's a, really? It's like, it's cool, I guess, but also it feels like, like to me, everything else in Hyde Park where they made the best of something that was already here. Dude, this is my memory of living here.

I lived here with Gavin. I was doing a renovation on my house. And so for 13 months, we had to live somewhere else. And so we rented a house right over off to Vaughl, they're like right in the heart of Hyde Park. And the thing I remember most about this area is that if you live here, or ever make the mistake of being in the front yard

of where you live, every 45 seconds an old white dude with a beard and Birkenstocks is gonna talk to you about the yard. It's just like, it's like Ben and Jerry's, just like come and buy every 30 seconds. This is also close to a, like kind of a weird part of Austin, where the Austin State Hospital's

like kind of right across the way over here, which is, I felt like a big black hole and has been like a black hole for a long time, but they're finally renovating yet. And like fixing it up and seeming to be going on for a couple of years and I don't know. I have no knowledge of that place. They're completely rebuilding it on the other side, right?

Right, on the Lamar side. Yeah. That place is interesting. It's like the, I guess the mental hospital and it's still in use. It's interesting to me because we have filmed Maybe 30 Rooster Teeth things there they ran out the basement like we filmed an episode of Haunter there One of the I think maybe the pilot we filmed there and a bunch of other stuff

I don't Joel film there once way back in the day when he was doing his thing with Gilby I don't know Joel film there once way back in the day when he was doing his thing with Gilby. Have you ever filmed there? No, I've never been there. I would say we filmed there, like Ruchis film there a bunch for different stuff. No one invited me. You were just never on the scary sheets.

But yeah, and then this I guess was, it's been there for a long time. That's why they're rebuilding it. That's why you exceeded Hunter there. And that's the institution that owns slash ran that graveyard over there on 51st. That's kind of abandoned now. It looks abandoned.

It's just got big wire fence around it. Yeah, it's like, it's falling apart. Thousands of people buried there. I think the dude, did we talk about this? The dude who founded Dallas is buried there supposedly? The TV show? No. The city.

No. No. No. No. Who shot J.R.? I don't know, but he's buried over there on 51st Street. No, no, no, no, no. Page?

Yeah, it's just like, it's just no one's buried there anymore. I don't know when the last person was, was, was, was in turn there, but it's like a lot of Graves with no headstones and a lot of the like headstones that have been weathered away and like you don't know who's there anymore I think there's no records of where anyone's right. Yeah, it's a mask-rave type thing. Let me ask you question Because that's something that permeated our child you were born in what 70 78 78 That's something that permeated our childhood and something I don't and I've actually read the answer to but I don't I know Longer than the answer to who shot J.R. Do you know who's Patrick Dempsey wasn't it his brother Bobby? I don't know. I never watch a Dallas. It was it's a little before my time. I don't know. I didn't watch it because it was for grownups

It was boring. It's like shit grown up so much. They are youing J are youing yeah, I know he was a villain. Call his own wife, Suell in a slug. It sounds like a text in the name. Yeah, it doesn't, Siri does say it wants to take me to Wikipedia or something. It was Maggie, right? Ultimately, it was Maggie. That was, that we're doing a podcast trying to figure out who shot J.R.

Maggie Simpson that that so you know I grew up in a small town and when I when Fox on the Fox Network started we didn't get it right like so when like the Simpsons first came on air and was popular there was no way for me to watch it because we just didn't have Fox you didn't get Parker Lewis can't lose or I saw like all of the, the, get a life. No, no, I'll miss all that. But all of that, like who shot Mr. Bernstuff? We didn't get Fox till after that.

So I remember like seeing commercials on other networks about it. Like there was like a whole Butterfinger tie in, like you can buy like special butterfingers. Like we got the Butterfingers. We just didn't get the show. We didn't get the show I think till the season after that.

That's when we finally got Fox and watch The Simpsons. You just had this vague idea of The Simpsons as a cartoon. It's like, I knew it was popular. Like, I'd see like people wearing the shirts, but it's like, yeah, I know you don't know what that is. We live in the same town, like, you know, the underachiever and proud of it. Bart Simpson shirts, like, yeah.

Why are you wearing that shirt? I know you've never seen the show. That was the kid whose parents had satellite. Maybe. That's like when I was the kid whose parents had satellite. Maybe. That's like when I was a kid, when I was like maybe nine or 10, I started watching the Howard Stern channel nine show. It would come on at like one a.m. in Alabama on Saturday night.

And I watched that show for like a year. It's probably, I got some, I probably got some of my earliest directions in that show. And, and, and, you know, underdog and all. Uh, and, and, uh, then And, uh, and, you know, underdog and all. And, and, uh, then I, you know, that just stopped being on TV and I forgot about for years. I was probably, I was like 19 or 18 when I discovered that Howard Stern show was a radio

show. Oh, wow. My boss was like, is this that dude from the old, from the game shows at late at night? I had no clue. That's really funny. I've discovered Howard twice in my clue. That's really fun. I've just covered how it's twice in my life. That's so great.

Oh, fuck. You're saying that you lived around here, right? Yeah, pretty close. This place you ever lived or what? Hyde Park? Hyde Park. I know, I'm like, I don't, I don't, I, with you, I never know. I've lived, no, I've lived over on the east side,

which is like a pretty close shot over here. Probably like, you know, five, ten minutes away if that, but never, never, over here in Hyde Park itself. Hyde Park is one of the like classic neighborhoods in Austin. It was also where some of the worst redlining in the city. Oh, absolutely. I think we mentioned that. We did.

I don't know, was that in the last episode or was that in the... It was mentioned that this was a white-only neighborhood. Yeah, yeah. And you can find old find old newspaper ads and stuff for it. Yeah. Yeah. Real fucking gross. Yeah. And again, it's stuff that's so old here,

it feels like these businesses have been around forever, and then they just repurpose stuff into other stuff. Yeah, all the houses and stuff are probably still racist, because they're under 150 years old. It, all the houses and stuff are probably still racist because they're on their own 50 years old. It's just hopefully the people that are. It's just like, I don't know, I drive around here or whatever and it's just like, man, this shit is old and this thing used to be a,

it's a gym now, but it, like this used to be like a house, like I don't know, there's just like a lot of that around. Yeah, there's like that, Hyde Park Bar and Grill, which is very clearly an old house that got converted into a restaurant Yeah, so it's a lot of stuff like that But it's but it's really funny because it's all subjective right like how old is really old for Austin

You know when was this stuff built the early 1900s? Yeah, yeah, I'm like a hundred years old maybe American old right and then you get a fucking like I you go to Italy and the water fountain is older than Jesus And you're like goddamn right so it's it's funny how subjective all that stuff is like yeah sure. It's old. I guess But not really so like I said I've lived on the east side and you know It's a really quick drive to get over here really, you know It's just on the other side of 35 But I feel like there is a distinct difference. Like you talked about being in your front lawn and like an old white dude in Berkins' socks

when you come up and talk to you about your lawn. That does not happen over on the east side. It's all overgrown and wild. No, you'll get either a really nice lady pushing a cart trying to sell empanadas who I love, I love that lady. Or sometimes a, what do you call them? Do you got a shuck with the corn?

Yeah, but. What is it, what do you call them? You're squeezing your hand in a weird motion. They like the food that you put in corn, you wrap it in corn leaves. Tamale? Oh. Tamale.

Like I don't know why I dropped the word. Yeah. So you hold a tamale in your hand like this? I've never what you're doing. I've never eaten a tamale that way. I've never I've never you look like he was holding like a tomato and checking it for Rightness like it looks like he was grabbing something throbbing and I didn't know what it was happening. I was doing the universal tomato sign or the universal tamale sign. Fucking mess. What a mess. Tamaleali, I said, everybody knows that's Tawali. Now you check your particular cats, right? I just did that recently too.

Oh yeah. Dr. said a pity me a health or what? Yeah, I'm good, I passed all my tests. Congratulations, gotta eat. Yeah, but I feel like over there on that side, it's the lawns are not nearly as manacos, it's like this empty lot across the way over here. Every house in Hyde Park,

every house in Hyde Park is between one and a half and four million dollars. That's true. There's probably a big difference. That is true. I do like going to open houses on the weekend. Oh my God. I think we've talked about that before.

But I do specifically enjoy coming to open houses over here because it's like, hmm, this is a tiny house and how much do you want for it again? Oh, interesty $2 million. $1,700 square feet, $2.8 million. Wow. That being said, they have a lot of parade of homes, tours over here too, walking tours that are great.

Yeah, you can just walk around all day long and just look at other people's stuff. We're really close to the parlor. Yeah, here, right? For the third and Guadalupe, I think. What is the parlor? The parlor. The, here, right? Forty-third and Guadalupe. What is the parlor? The parlor? It's a piece of bar.

Yeah, it's a, it used to be over on North Loop or War Courses now. Yeah, okay. And they moved, when they moved, like 10, 15 years ago? Well, yeah, more than like 15. And they, I used to say they moved, they opened the second location,

they operated both for a while. Oh, right. And then eventually the North Loop and closed down. It doesn't make sense, because from here to North Loop, it's 10 blocks. Like they had two locations, 10 blocks away, which makes no sense. The parlors fantastic.

It's like punk rock pizza. It's like they have bands play. It's dark like casino side. It would be like casino, if casino served pizza instead of burgers. And had no theming. The only theme of the parllor is that it's dark. How's the pizza? Great.

Yeah. So it's like American, like normal ass pizza. I've never, how is this not in a conversation of best pizza in Austin? No, I don't think so. No. It used to be. Yeah, it used to be.

Yeah, but I think. But here was that when it used to be. 2000? 2000. 2014. I'm gonna go, no, I'm gonna go earlier. I was, yeah, I mean, I would say it was still really good up good up until it's not bad. It's just there's so much other stuff Yeah, just like the pizza scene in Austin is really I've never heard I gotta do this place

I used to drink that was like my home away from home for years really yeah Yeah, it says on the description pice pints pool and pinball all right I play a lot of pull along along with a jukebox playing post-punk and goth rock Well, I'm gonna skip ahead a little bit to our NFT segment here. Okay. The parlor. Okay. That's a good middle of the show on FTE.

It's like 43rd in Guadalupe. Again, not definitely not for tourists. I live here and I didn't know about this place. Oh, that's great, man. So, does that, do you have any stories for that? We used to go to the parlor a lot back when it was on North Loop. Yeah. I've been to the Hyde Park with Waymore just like I'd walked to it from where I lived and I so I would go there like twice a week for about a year.

Um, I don't think I have any wild stories because it's not like downtown. It's not like in like an entertainment district. It was like you would go there when you wanted to like have dinner and you know, share up picture of beer with a couple of people. I will, I will say Millie learned a lot about life there because we would go there when she was a toddler up to like maybe she was like seven. And anytime she wanted a root beer or something, I would make her go up to the bar and order herself.

And she'd be like, I don't want to do it. I don't talk to that lady. And I'm like, you got to go up and talk to her. And that's that's how you're going to get okay with talking to people. And so Millie learned to order. This. And so, Millie learned to order, just the sound's terrible. Millie learned to order at bars when she was like, four or five. But that booze just like drinks.

She's learned to be independent. Yeah, I think that's a really good skill, I think. I really wanted her not to be scared to talk to. A lot of people don't push their kids to do that. And I think you end up with a lot of those shy kids who like bury their face and their parents clothing and don't wanna talk to anyone. I have a thing where I think everyone should have to work

like a warehouse job for a year, or I guess, I mean, I don't want to say be in the military, but it's a kind of thing where you have to bond and learn how to small talk with people that you would never fucking talk to, and that's the place where you do it is a warehouse. I think Germany has it right, and I'm sure a lot of people will disagree with me, maybe you guys as well. I think Germany has it right, and I'm sure a lot of people will disagree with me.

Maybe you guys as well. I think Germany has it right where when you are required to either enter military or civil service. For a year or two, when you turn 18. So either if you don't wanna join the military because you're a conscientious objector or you don't want whatever, that's totally fine, you go be a nurse or learn how to,

I think is that what civil service is? I'm not sure what civil service is. They have, I don't know what constitutes civil service there, but they have a think, is that what civil services, I'm not sure what civil services, I don't know what constitutes civil service there, but they have a bunch of different paths you can take, but you have to do something. It does not have to be military, it has to be some other way.

Andma is pro-draft. I think that's good, I think a lot of countries do that. Like South Korea does the same thing. That's why BTS went on a hiatus or broke up. It's like you have to serve two years, I think it's like a year and a half now in the military. But I think having the civil service angle as well for conscientious objectors is a great alternative.

Like we used to know a dude who was in a band who was a friend of a friend of ours, who was 26, and I think he was a dual citizen, Israeli and US, and I think if you to maintain your Israeli citizenship, you have to spend one year in the military by the time you turn 27 or 28, and so he had to leave the band and go back to Israel for a year because he didn't want to leave his passport

and serve in the military and then he came back eventually. Yeah, quick sidebar. Quick sidebar. If anyone wants to catch some quick hip-hop tie to say, there's like a razor blade. Oh nice. Right here. We, yeah, we, similarly, we got interviewed by a dude

a long time ago, back when we were still at the butto office, who was from Switzerland. Stefan? Yeah. Yeah. And he told a story about the Norway, maybe. I think it was Switzerland. Well, they had a mandatory military service as well.

And when you leave the military, they give you a gun you have to keep. What? Yeah, and it's like, for the rest of his life, he had to have this gun in his house. And it's like he didn't, he, you know, was a pacifist and he didn't want the gun. So he was going through this like really long involved process of returning the gun to the government so that he no longer had to keep it in his home. He was a really, really, really guy. He was a machine gun or something.

He said that it was like some archaic bolt action. Of course. Right. But like, wow, that's crazy. Yeah. He was one of those dudes who saw what we were, like saw the art form and what we were doing where we didn't. We just wanted to make dick and fart jokes, you know. But I always liked him a lot. Yeah, there were a lot of people in the early days who kept trying to compare it. Elevators. Yeah, to like other artistic formats. We got a lot of comments in the early days who kept trying to compare it. Elevators. Yeah, to like other artistic formats. We got a lot of comments about waiting for Godot. Yeah. And I was like, man, I don't know.

I just want to tell the dick joke on the internet. Like Star Wars. Do you feel like that was something that, I don't want to say battle doesn't the right word, but is that something that's sort of like, like do you like in like those early years where people were making it more? No.

No. I think that what would happen, it would happen at this, there was a natural course correction where we were sort of a darling for the first three or four years. What we were doing was new and clever and people thought unique,

even though it'd been going on for a long time, we just didn't realize it. And so there were a lot of people that wanted to like, ascribe the high-minded artistic nature of what we were doing to what we were doing. And we rode that, that was fine. But it became pretty clear pretty quickly that we were juvenile and soft-morked

and wanted to make South Park. And so they all just kinda got sick of us real fast. And like I remember we won a bunch of awards at the Machinima Awards, and then we went back to the next year, and we won a bunch of awards. And then the next year they we didn't win any any awards and they were like, you've had enough. Like, it's like they didn't say that but it was totally the vibe I got from that whole industry.

There was like, all right, now we're, it was, it was fun. We promoted you guys but now everybody's talking about the goddamn red versus blue and every like they're ignoring machinima as an art form. And now you now you guys are the thing to strangle that down and they just kind of, we kind of fell out of favor with that world and stayed and have never been back in favor. Just by the fact, if I may, we put it on the map. Oh, it's...

So one could certainly make that up. One could certainly make that up. Jeff being a little more conservative there. It existed for a long time. I think 12 years. Well, we just were at the right place at the right time and it really exploded when we started doing it. Technically James Cameron used Mishinema to help design

and shoot the Titanic. Remember he, I don't know if you remember this. I knew I was there. And that was way before us, but yeah. That was his name was Way Before. That was before I was. So you guys are like the James Cameron of like internet videos.

Yeah, okay. Yeah, we're like James Cameron. That's good. Every single Couple of years ago. You guys are like the James Cameron of like internet videos. Yeah, okay. Yeah, we're like James Cameron. That's good. Every single one of billion dollars. Yeah, each project more successful than last. Is this kind of like your avatar then? You're like, Yeah.

Anmitar. Anmitar, Anmitar 3. Yeah. Our avatar 3. We're sitting by, I'm gonna derail us again. Please. We're sitting by this little wall.

Are we railed? Yeah, definitely. No, we're sitting by this,'m gonna derail us again. Please. We're sitting by this little, are we brailed? Yeah, definitely. No. We're sitting by this, you know, like I said, we're sitting on these benches and there's like a little ash trates is this like cigarette butt dispenser? Yeah.

We're not dispenser, but like disposal dispenser. Disposal container. There's a lock to open it up. Like if you want to empty out the cigarette butts from the sink, you have to have a key. Like who, what are the afraid of? if you want to empty out the cigarette butts from the sink You have to have a key like who what are the afraid of someone gonna steal did their cigarette balls? You never know I just watched a same embalter to the ground. Are you watching the new season of Beavis and butthead? I watch only the first episode ever not watch it like episode three or four bevis gets

Addicted to eating cigarette butts He's eating hundreds of them but the Davis can't stop him. So you you know, I guess there's, you know, there's a market for him. My favorite of the new ones so far, and I haven't seen all of the season two stuff, was I think it was in season one where they want to find dinosaur bones and they make the boner sorus. And they try to get rich off of that. It's great. It's great. That's a show that I was surprised to see come back, right? Like they had the movie, be with somebody to do the universe

and then they kind of like launched. Well, it's come back a couple times because they had a season before that movie. They had a season in like 2016. Really? Yeah, and it's really funny. There's an episode where they decide they want to become werewolves and vampires,

so they can get laid in twilight. And twilight, so they get a messy dude, homeless dude to bite them and they get sick and they think they're becoming wearables vampires. It's one of the funniest episodes ever. And that's where like, yeah, there's like a season in there, the 2016- 2016. Weird, I don't know.

Then they did the universe, and now they've brought it back on Paramount Plus and now they're on season two on Paramount Plus. Yeah, yeah I remember a couple of times. I just said I just canceled my Paramount Plus Cuz I was using it was to watch me with some buddy. It's like this gonna come on Comedy Central eventually I just watch it then it's fucking good. It's real funny. I like what they're doing with the where they've Times skipped to the old Beavis and but I didn't get to see their adventures to yeah, yeah, that's a great So there's a lot seeing I'm speaking of my George animation projects, there's a lot of talk about

like King of the Hill coming back to. And King of the Hill is a very without like, say, it's not said in Austin, it's said in Ireland, right? But it's a very weirdly Austin show. Weirdly Texas show. Well, it's very weirdly Texas, but there's a lot of very specific Austin references in that show as well like Strickland propane Was modeled after a propane place up in cedar park You know they all live on rainy street and rainy street is a street in Austin I think the episode where they moon and Richard's like that looks like the high at downtown like There's a lot of very

Austin specific references in that show the thing that was always weird to me about that show is I had to that looks like the high-end downtown. There's a lot of very Austin-specific references in that show. The thing that was always weird to me about that show is I had left Texas to go live in New Jersey when King of the Hill kind of happened. And so it was like my last year and a half in the Army. That brief period why left Texas and then I lived in New Jersey and then I came back to Texas immediately.

I shouldn't say Texas, Austin. It wasn't Texas to probably back, it was Austin. And I would watch it and I'd be like, this is fucking awesome, but this show will not make it because it can't be funny to anybody outside of Texas. Like this entire show was one big inside joke for people that have lived in Texas. And the fact that it went like 13 seasons,

always blew me away. It's all time. Yeah, well, supposedly, we'll see.. So long time. Because I just, yeah. Well, supposedly, we'll see. That's gonna be time skipped too, I think. Yeah, I think they said that they would pick it up like 20 years later where everyone's older. I don't want to see that.

Just give me more. I want to see a body. I would have said that. That makes me so nervous. I would have said that before, but the old Beavis and puttid segments in Beavis and buttid are done really well. And it's also my pleasure makes me think that that will also be executed well. Lulean platters the thing, right?

Yeah, it's a meal. You can get a Lubis that Jack will tell you about if you ever mentioned beevus and but it or Lubis. Yeah, I'm not going to give a hill. I can't. Yeah, it's like you get like a main and two sides. That's the Luan platter. That's so fun.

And that's the name of Luan. Yeah, Luan. It's the name of who was played by Brandi Murphy, who's super dead. Yeah. And so is her husband in the show. That's shit. Yeah, it was so weird. We just held it. What petty was a voice in that show?

So strange. Tom Petty was a pretty good actor, though. He's good, man. Did you ever see a panic room? Oh, yeah. He was the bad guy. He was good in that. He was really good in that.

I always forget. No, wait, that wasn't him. That was Dwight Yokem, wasn't it? You're right. Dwight Yokem and Tom Petty. And he's no way. Dwight Yokem and Tom Petty are the same dude in my head sometimes.

That's so funny. So Tom Petty's like third to last show for a dead. Did you really? How was it? It's fucking great. And he was in like really good spirits and he was excited about it too. We're there about to go on.

And like, you never would have guessed he died three weeks later. You don't, man, you don't know. You never know. You know, you know. That's scary. Well, that's a real bummer. He had an interesting career at. You never know. Damn. That's scary. Well, that's a real bummer.

He had an interesting career that Tom Petty. Yeah. I think that streaming services, we're getting way off topic, but I don't care. I'm making my stand here. I think streaming services should list Tom Petty and Tom Petty and the heartbreakers as one thing, because I don't. Oh, yeah. It's all the same thing except the drummer.

Like Tom Petty wrote the stuff for Tom Petty, but like the backing band was the heartbreakers except the drummer I would say Tom Petty and Tom Petty in the heartbreak breakers are the red versus blue of the music industry Wow That's awesome. Yeah, congratulations to them. They really made it so mudcrutch is banned before Tom Petty in the heartbreakers Is that like drunk? No, no, they're mudcrush. That's a great day. So it's the time of year where I've switched to

iced Americano. Normally I hate deviating and getting something different, but it's just brutal. We've entered the awful part of the Austin summer early this year. We've already hit 100 degrees. And I think this week, it's going to be like 104, 105 for the Austin summer early this year. We've already hit 100 degrees, and I think this week, it's gonna be like 104, 105 for the high pretty much every day.

It's the 10th earliest we've hit 100 on in history. Which isn't really that bad because like two through, like if this is number 10, like one through nine roll, like the last nine years. Like it's, I bet number one was probably like 2011. That was, it was like 1920. And then there, but it's yeah, I bet number one was probably like 2011 that was now there was like 1920 and then there there but it's been there's been like five or six of them in the last Seven years. Yeah We are definitely a trend

Definitely a trend. But yeah, it's it's enter that time of year where the air conditioner runs pretty much nonstop all day You try to do anything you can't avoid being outside. I'm glad we do an in the morning Uh, because even though it's like 1045 right now. It is unbearable. I'm glad we do an in the morning, because even though it's like 10.45 right now, it is unbearable. I'm glad we're in the shade, because it's awful. Yeah, I've been trying to do my bike rides at 6 a.m. now, and I couldn't the other day, and I had to do it at like 2 p.m.

Ooh. It was 101, it was so brittle. I did a thing for Amla. Okay. That I wanna talk about. Not a big deal or anything, but Gus, you and I, but I specifically did this for Emma. Okay. That I won't talk about. Not a big deal or anything, because you and I, but I specifically did this for this podcast,

so I can talk about it. You and I have talked in the past, I think on this podcast about Delaware subs. Yeah. We used to go, there were three Delaware subs. We used to go to, it was like, I don't wanna remember was like the one down off of William Cannon.

There was one right over here at Medical Arts, and like, oh yeah, there was. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the other side, a sub shop now, which is my sub shop of choice, you should go there. It's phenomenal, they got a really good, what's your hand, what's your hand? Really good, pastrami.

Do you ever stop and think like in a given week how much time you spend working on things for yourself or doing things to improve yourself

versus time spent on others? Then think about that every now and then. It's really weird because it's easy to get caught up in what everyone else needs from you and to not take the appropriate amount of time to think about what you need from yourself, whatever it is that you need in order to take care of yourself and make yourself happy. I think it's just something that's ingrained in a lot of us where we wanna make everyone else happy and work hard at pleasing everyone else at the expense of our own selves. When we spend all of that time giving,

it can leave us feeling stretched thin and burned out and therapy can give you the tools to find more balance in your life so you can keep supporting others without leaving yourself behind.

So anyway, we were talking about Delaware, and I think Bernie or somebody mentioned to me when we talked about it, that there is still one Delaware subs in Austin. Audio texturing coming. Up on Nasa and, that's a medical flight right? Yeah, the yellow one.

Heading over to the hospital. Mueller. St. Mueller? Like, Dell Children's? Yeah. Oh man. Maybe it's going to St. David's but. Yeah.

Looks like it's... What's that? Mesa and Spicewood, yeah. So there's still a Delaware up there. So there's still a Delaware up there. So there's still a Delaware up there. And so I, that stuck in my head the other day, a million, I were looking for something to eat. I said, let's go find, let's go hunt this Delaware sun.

She didn't give a fuck, she was like, whatever. So we went up there and we found and ate at the one Delaware. So I got the exact same thing I used to always get, the Italian gourmet. Well, listen, they had, the one that we would go to on William Cannon, they had a hot, they had a Philly Cheesesteak stuff. So it was really good. But the guy who ran the grill, if he was having a bad day,

his name was Mike, I don't know if he was Mike. If he was having a bad day, he was just real scary. And I don't want to mess with him. And so why would order or not order a hot sub? More often than we would order one, just because I don't want to run a file of him. So I got the cold Italian gourmet and it is identical. It was like freaking up bite into 2004 and let me tell you something. It wasn't, it was exactly what I remembered and it's not a great bite.

Oh really? Yeah, it's like I remembered why we love Delaware. I loved it because it was huge. I don't know if you remember this, but they take that big fat slice of like meat and they like fold everything in with it and it's like the size of a blanket. You use it like a blanket and yeah. And it was huge and it was cheap and I went oh this is why we like Delaware. It's not just subs. It was huge and cheap. It's actually not that great. Really? Yeah, the bread wasn't great. I thought I remember really loving it, thinking it was awesome. I did too at the time, but now I realize,

well, I thought it was awesome. I thought value was awesome. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're younger. How that super salad was awesome, because we could eat all the salad in the world for $7, you know? That's true.

Despite the fact that there'd be like, snot on the street. Yeah. You'd fucking just ignore it. So yeah, it drives the price down. be like, snot on the street, you'd fucking just ignore it. Say, yeah, it drives the price down. Delaware subs, if you want to go, check out a piece of old Austin history. What'd you call that in NFT?

It's definitely an NFT, because I don't think it's, I don't think it's gonna make any T-lists. Any toxic. Go on up to Mesa and Spicewood, it is in a, it is in a little shopping center there. The guy who was cooking our food, Millionized Food, had a giant black eye, which Millie thought was the most entertaining thing

in the world, trying to figure out where he got his black eye from. And hey, they'll play Fox News for you right there on the TV. That's the thing. You can come here and watch it. Yeah, it's just, it's going 25 hours a day there. So anyway, that's my report back on,

you can go home again, but it turns out that maybe you didn't like home as much as you thought you did. It's interesting you say that because last week for the first time in a long time, I went to a Thunder Cloud subs, which is a- I'm back hard on Thunder Cloud, yeah.

Are you, let's still regularly going? Yeah, there's one by my house, so I probably have not been to a Thunder Cloud in 10 years. It had been a long time, but that was still, I walked in, it was the location I never been to before, but I walked in and it's like, one of these things, oh, this is definitely a Thunder Cloud. And just like I remembered it.

The best part about ordering a Thunder Cloud, and I've only started going there again because I live very close to one when I moved. And the same kind of thing, I used to eat at the Thundercloud on Riverside twice a week. It's still there. Yeah, it's still there. And I probably hadn't eaten there in 12 years.

Thundercloud is also not great, but it's good. It's good enough. I'd rather have it than, just about, I'd rather have it than Jimmy Jones. I remember specifically back then being like, it's not, it's fine, like it's good. It's not the best, but I will support this place

over any other place because it's a local place. I'm not gonna go to those other places. And they do, I think they do some decent stuff for their employees in the community. They have giant diet Pepsi back, even when you couldn't get diet Pepsi anywhere else, which is always good. But the thing I love about,

the thing I love about ThunderCloud is that every employee who works there is baked out of their mind 24 hours a day, and it's always an adventure to order your food. Because they're just like, you gotta like, hey, not enough, you know, or what, it's not, and they're like, all right, man, I got you. I will say, I did have to repeat what San

Oce I wanted three times when I ordered the other day. Yeah, it's like a requirement Like I hope APD never stop it's discovered Thunder Glad because they're gonna shut the whole fucking place down There's probably 20 other than town talked about places that you know, okay It's these are subs whatever is there a place that you go to for a sandwich here. Oh, we're right by it What haven't you be grocery? Oh? We just talk about it's a go up like fuck. Four blocks that way.

We're walking to this and having to be grocery right now. That is definitely an NFT. We've talked about it and I know we've had and my listeners go there and report that. Yeah, people are gone in order and they're like, it was, it was fine. It was good. The place I go is the other side,

which is like that of the Larts. Yeah, I got it for you. Yeah, we have you. We got like the Philly Chesa, it's fucking great. That's my place. No, yeah, the old Delaware subs. I like that if you. Yeah, I was fucking good. You got like the Philly G-Sing, it's fucking great. That's my place. No, the old Delaware subs. I like that if you go in there, they have movie posters on the walls,

like Close Encounters and just like different Indiana Jones and shit. And then they photograph sub sandwiches into the hands of all the people in the movies. Oh, that's great, yeah. So it's like, it's pretty funny. Yeah, that's a good gimmick. Yeah. But yeah, and those two places aren't too far from each other The other side and have any big girls to both yeah, we're kind of between them both

Both excellent. There's a lot of restaurants. I don't like in Hyde Park I don't like Hyde Park Barn Grill. I hated mothers What's wrong with Hyde Park Barn Grill? I just think it's super mediocre I think everybody goes crazy about the fries. The fries are fine. I don't get the fries. But the food is like whatever. You got a good chicken fried steak?

Yeah, I'm not a huge chicken fried steak fan, but I won't argue that. Although I wanted to get a chicken fried steak, I probably got a hoover's. Okay. There's an austi Italian restaurant across the street. I'm going to play devil's advocate and argue with you in all of these.

Okay. Mothers that kind of agree you in all of these. Okay. Mothers that kind of agree with, they're gone. Yeah. Definitely overrated. But now it's a curse, which is like a local place. I don't like. I love curries. See, that's where even differ.

I think curries is good. I started eating there now that it's curries. There's a... I think Aste is really good. You don't like Aste? I don't like Aste. I had a bad experience there once. I don't remember well enough to talk about it,

but I had a rough... But the one complaint I have is they serve like Focaccia bread. I don't like Focaccia. There's a Julios is all right. Julios awesome, I love that place. I just had a really mediocre breakfast there a couple weeks ago, I was really disappointed. We talked about them a couple weeks ago.

We talked about the history behind them. That's definitely another NFT. I do like that place, but I was really bummed that the breakfast I got. I like Little Nikki's a lot. Little Nikki's, are Uncle Nikki's? Is that what's called? For years you couldn't pay with a card at Julio's.

That was a one in a cash. That was a one in a cash. And there's an ATM right outside. Little niggies, I only ate their once and I got food poisoning. So I never went back. Really? He used to be a place called Dulce Vida.

Yeah, we used to go all the time. Yeah, that's Hyde Park. It's a parlor. Parlor, North Loop on the ass end of it, on the north end of it. Yeah, I can Hyde Park. It's a parlor. Parlor, North Loop, on the ass end of it, on the North end of it. Yeah, I can't hold that stuff. I'm trying to think of this any other

like notable restaurants around here. Yeah, that's probably all of it. Yeah. I mean, you guys named all of them that are all in that same, it's, Hyde Park is next to Uncle Nicky's, is across from Curras, is right next to Aste,

and Quax. Yeah, Quax is on the backside of Uncle Nicky's. What's justras, his right next to Ashtie and Quacks. Yeah, Quacks is on the backside of Uncle Nicky's. It's just a bakery though. Yeah, it's a coffee shop. Yeah, it's funny about Quacks. We'll go there. I feel like the baked goods they make are better at the coffee shops they send it to

than it is at Quacks. What, really? Yeah, like if you go up, I think maybe we talked about it, see if you go up to Flight Pass, which is right up the road from there and get like a Quacks cookie or whatever, it's better there than it is that quack.

You know what's interesting about that is like, you're 100% right, you're 100% right, but there is another business in town that is the opposite of that. Can I guess go right ahead? Taco Deli? Taco Deli. Yes. Thank you Gus. If you go to any coffee shop in town, they're going to have Taco Deli, they're going to have breakfast tacos for sale, and you're going to go, oh cool, I want a breakfast taco

for sale. Sure. I would go, oh cool, I want a breakfast taco for sale. Sure, I'm, I would like a breakfast taco with my coffee. They don't make that taco there. If they, if they say taco deli, or if you get, they hand you a taco that says taco deli in it, give it back, you don't want it. It's not food. You don't want to eat it. The bean and cheese, the bean and poppacin cheese is okay.

That's the best one. Yeah, if you're gonna get one, get the bean and poppacin cheese. That one's hard to fuck up. But by the same token, if you go to any taco deli, it's all sit down and eat, it's phenomenal. Yes. It is absolutely phenomenal. There's one not too far from you,

it's right over on Lamar. Yeah, I go to that one sometimes. Yeah, it's a good one. I go to the one on burn it a lot too. Mm-hmm. Over by dip dip. Love that place, but if you get it, you're somewhere else.

You gotta go there to get it. There's like some factory where they make breakfast tacos at 2 a.m. every day and they just crank them out and ship them to every coffee shop in town. Speaking of tacos, the Vera Cruz brick and mortar finally opened up over in Mueller. Really? I went in eight there this weekend.

It's like right across from sweet greens, right across from the draft house. Yeah, it's like right down at that little corner on Aldrich. I don't know if that's an NFT because they're pretty fucking popular, but you should absolutely eat it any varicose. Yeah, I think we got tacos from there when we went out to little fields.

Yeah, but that was a trailer, but now they have a brick and mortar where you're gonna get it. We also got a video. Oh, that's a good way to get it. I did it. I did a touristy thing the other day that I never done before, Emily and I went for a bike ride

last weekend maybe and We were hungry so we stopped at the at the window right there at Congress and Like with a line is Congress in the bridge, okay? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah and got our tacos and then rode across the bridge over to auditorium shores and then and then just sat in Auditorium Shores and like, how little picnic? That was great. People should do that. Yeah.

That's good. It's nice down there. We filmed an Artics promo video where I was in a kayak right down there. We're out of Auditorium Shores. We were talking about subs, I was checking stuff to get some stuff prepped for anarchy me, anything. But Austin Angerman, at Austin Angerman on Twitter,

who's a professional contest winner, he won Chris's chicken spaghetti. Oh, dude, that was one of the funniest bits. Yeah, that was so funny. That was one of the fun. I sent Chris a note right after he did that about that. What was great about that too, is that Austin was like a natural in camera.

He was so good. He was really awesome. He was really great. He said, we were talking about Austin Constance and talking about Casino and Camino and other stuff like that. And he'd mentioned, gotta add ThunderClaude subs to that list of Austin Constance. It's like, we'll open a brand new location.

You walk in, it's like 2003. And he's dead on with that. I mean like, absolutely. It's funny he said 2003, because I think everyone assigns the first time they win. Yeah, yeah, yeah, like, so I walk in and I'm like, oh, this is like the mid-90s. Yeah, that's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Which is great. Which is great, yeah. Looks like walking them like, oh, this like the mid-90s. Yeah, it's like 98, which is great. Which is great, because it's exactly the same. Like 96, that's just, it's just that dude with some dredds in a tie-died shirt. Mm-hmm. I think, are the 90s back?

The 90s? Yeah, because dude is summer 98. Summer 98, I don't know baby. No, what's that? It's like, corn to fuck face, it's summer 98. We, when I went to Jeff's house and he got me a sandwich, I didn't, I'm like, I don't know what I'm gonna drink whatever.

And I think you had Diet Coke or Diet Pepsi. It was one of the two. And I drank it and I hadn't had one of those since summer in 98. And I don't remember the taste, but I tasted it. And it was like, my eyes rolled the back of my head and I went summer in 98. It was like the last time I had it. But thinking about that and a bunch of other stuff

from just like that summer to me was like awesome. I was like 12, so it was like fucking cool. Writing my bike everywhere and doing all this shit and there's a radio contest that I love. There was just like a lot with like summer 98. It's back, 2023 summer 98. It was the year I got out of the army. See, there you go.

We're back to Austin. Yeah, I was here. I walked into a convenience store. That's the last week. Wow. They were like these two girls who were like walked in. They were like looking for the ATM, and it looked like they were dressed into summer of 98.

Like I looked at them, and it was like, I don't know, probably some girls in their late teens or early 20s, and it was like, I feel like, it's in my mind, it feels like 1998, looking at them, being in here. 25 years is typically like the thing. It's 20 to 25 years is when like that fashion and like what that stuff was, goes back into Vogue.

Like when you think about that 70s show,, I get what it was a late 90s thing that took place and it was 1999 it took place in 1974. It's weird though because we had that little that little blip of it when like friends was popular again. Yeah, and we had that like maybe four years ago before the pandemic it was like 90s. Right. Then it went away and now it's coming. Right. It's right. It was about four years ago, which would have been 94 when friends came on. And now we're in 98. It is, it is, it is.

It really is truly 25 years. It is here with a vengeance. So anyway, we have embraced summer 98 of fuck face. We changed, we're on season 98 now. Yeah. We're all about the summer 98, man. Really makes some summer 98 merch. Yeah.

Summer 98, that was my first summer back in Austin. Like I moved to Austin, January 98. And so I definitely remember, He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time.

He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time.

He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He's a good time. He were right around here. Yeah, that's crazy. And I'm at Jason first.

Like, Jason Saldani, who was our first guest, he and I have known each other like a week longer than we've known Gus. Yeah. That's crazy. I'll never catch up. I'll be up by someday. Yeah.

Give it time. Give it time. There's a lot. Let me check on the. Are we recording? Okay, good. Oh, we're still... I'm watching it like a fucking... Fuck on this episode.

Um, it... We're kind of nearing like the end. We probably should talk about like the coffee and everything, because we're a terrible love, which is a place I've never been to. Found this little trailer. It is, it's a little trailer out in front of what used to be a school, and I didn't know what the fuck this was, and I still kind of don't know what this is.

But it's really weird that we're a block off of God. And it's just this and the houses around here are 1.2 million. Oh, the bad ones are, yeah. I don't understand. There's some fucking honkers like a block in that blow your mind. Like how? You know what's crazy? Two blocks over, there's a two bedroom, three and a half bath for 1.25 million. It was crazy to me about Hyde Park is

This is definitely like and there's like big neighborhoods in Austin. They're like the hot shit neighborhoods right high park is up there Travis Heights is up there. I would say Bolton is up there and Terry town Oh, yeah, the one thing that this area had doesn't have that they all do There's no pools in any of the yards in Hyde Park. You do an Austin aerial map. There is not a swimming pool in this neighborhood. I don't understand how. The land's too expensive. I guess. So that one I just told you about the 1.25 million. It's a church. Yeah. Like legitimately it's got pews. I'll go, I live in a church. By a church? Yeah, I live in a church, I don't care. I'll leave the vine of church in Detroit,

not telling you that. Are there any public pools here? Yeah, Shide Park. What? Shide Park, it's on the other end. It's like 43rd, it's like 45th Street, and Shide Park, I think is what's called. It's where the Elizabeth Nay Museum is.

Yeah, there's a pool, oh yeah, there is a pool there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's under construction maybe right now. Yeah, it's just like just west of Elizabeth Nay. Yeah, okay, I know what you're talking about. It's like a Speedway, 45th, maybe just east of pool there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's under construction maybe right now. Yeah, it's just like just west of Elizabeth's name. Yeah, okay, I know what you're talking about. It's like a speedway. For instance, maybe just east of Speedway. Yeah.

Yeah. Just east of Speedway. So we should talk about the coffee, because we're at Terrible Love, which is a trade-out in front of the place. And I didn't know what this place was. See, I'm a public pool guy. Public pool guy.

Yeah, so what, hang on, before we get into the coffee, that's the thing that you're doing now? Yeah, and then the palm, the year of City of Austin Utilities. Is this a thing that you've ever done? Are you guys like public, like this is like a public pool? When I was a little kid, I did. We used to go to Barton Springs back in the day,

but Barton Springs is gross now. Yeah. You're gonna get fucking fungus and toxic algae diseases. No, just don't drink it, don't be a dog. Don't, I wouldn't put my head in the water. Yeah, no, I don't think I've been to a single public pool. And no, no, no, hi, bye. Besides Barton Springs. I may have gone to like deep Eddie once did you go in you pay five bucks and you're fucking set Yeah, look at that. So that's value we can do an episode of pool

I don't want to do an episode of a pool if you're like me and you can afford your own pool come hang out with me at Is that a coffee spot? Pool burger. Oh, I forgot the burger. Oh,, if you missed the last episode, we do burgers. Yeah, we can go sit right by deep-eddy. There's actually a park right there. Yeah, it's the deep-eddy we can sit at. We should do Pull Burger. We should definitely do Pull Burger.

We'll have to do a later episode because I don't think they're gonna be open for burgers. But it's the wrong time of year for that. God, it's gonna be the very time of the launch. It's gonna be the very time of the launch. Right, which is the wrong time of year for that. This is where I have. Bring a little fan.

Wearing a hat. Oh, no, you're good. You're good. So let's talk about the coffee here. You're a terrible lover, a little trailer. Oharing a hat. You're good, you're good. So let's talk about the coffee here. We'll love it with a little trailer. Yeah, what did you think? You got ice Americano a little different. You got an ice coffee and I got the regular drip.

What did you think of the regular drip? Eight out of ten. It has a good flavor to it. It's not coffee flavor coffee. It has, I like a sourness to my coffee. I talked about that before. And I like kind of a sweetness on the back. And this has some sourness to my coffee. I talked about that before. And I like kind of a sweetness on the back. And this has some sourness, not a lot of sweetness.

It tasted fresh without being, just didn't taste like it had been on the drip for like a really long time. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. When it starts getting kind of like cruddy and like a little, you get like that. That's all the while I don't ask for drip. That's all I get the more kind of sweetness for it.

But that's, you know, how I trust this stuff is like, get the drip, always gonna be good enough. And this one I liked, this is a place I'd come back to. Yeah, this, a Mercono, it was awesome. Like, almost all gimmicks level. Yeah, speaking of. Like a nine maybe. Speaking of.

This was X, we were just gonna get a nine. Yeah. Do you not do sub grades, you don't do points? Cause that was maybe 8.75. I mean, I didn't mean to argue down 0.25, give them a nine. That's what I did. You're the one you did. You brought the nine 8.75. I'm gonna give it a 9.1. Okay, I would recommend this place. Yeah, but I'd recommend this place if this is the beginning of your day

and you're gonna spend some time in Hyde Park. Yeah, I wouldn't recommend you go out of your way to come get this cup of coffee, but I do like it. Which is also quite honestly, a lovely neighborhood to, not in the summer. But if you find yourself in Austin in October or March, get a, go to Terrible Love, get a cup of coffee, and then just walk north through Hyde Park for 30 minutes, go left

to ride a block and then come back. And you'll have the loveliest walk, it's beautiful, the houses are beautiful, the yards are beautiful, the people are very nice and boring and you'll have a lovely time. You have a lot of great places where you can stop and eat, you can go up to the triangle, like there's a lot around here. There's like a lot of stuff here, but not a lot of stuff that I go to typically. There's a lot of not good food in the trade although. That's a little, I agree. I absolutely agree.

And it's expensive. What do you consider not good food in the triangle? Uh, mandalas. You don't like mandalas? No. A lot of foods. No. I don't like my food.

Yeah. Mandalas is what I think of his typical Italian in Austin where you just go. Almost. Yeah. It's got where you just go. Almost. Yeah, it's got Ritz Haas. Yeah, I think you guys were wrong about Mendelsohn. No, I think it's not everything else. I think it's not very good. And then you can get ice cream at like,

is it jills or something in there? Jenny's. And it's so expensive. If you want a buying $8 ice cream cone. And the flavors are so weird, but it's not, we went to a bar one time, and after we were done drinking, we're like, oh hell yeah,

we went to like Billy's on Burnett, I think, and ended up over there, and it was like, that was a fucking cool day. Like that was fun. But if you go out of your way to just get that ice cream, it's kind of like, hope you don't want just Rocky Road, because this is Praleen Plus Dark Chocolate. If they're all really good.

100% Kit-Kal. Except for everything bagel flavor, I fight that. They're all really good. 100% KitKal. Except for everything bagel flavor. I fight that. No, no. I love a salty ice cream though. Woohoo, I love it. How are you? Oh yes, salty ice cream.

That's the best. How are you guys with Hop-Doddy, the burger place over? I'm medium on Hop-Doddy. I think it's okay if you go alone and sit at the bar. If I have to wait one fucking minute in line there, I'm no thanks. I, so many other places to go. I think the burger, they try too hard with the burgers.

They over complicate them. I'm a very classic simple burger person. Yeah, it's just like, I don't need all this stuff on it. Yeah, I like the Diablo burger there, but I will never understand the frenzy that was hopdotti for the first three years. Don't understand it at all. You can go to any hopdotti in town now and walk in and immediately be seated like you should at a hamburger restaurant. But there was the first one that opened up on South Carongress.

For the first three years it was open, there was a line out the door, it was an hour and a half way. For whatever they were open. For what reason? I don't know. For no reason. It's not an hour, it's not a 30 minute wait. No, it's not a 15 minute, almost no burger on earth is a 30 minute wait. Don't make any sense to me.

No, not at all. But, terrible love, pretty good coffee. I like the spot, and I like what it's around, and it's cool. I love this, I like, I was, we had a friend that worked here for a while at Alamo, and I was jealous when they got the job, not because I wanted to while at Alamo, and I was jealous when they got the job, not because I wasn't working at Alamo,

but just because it seems like a place you would work in a movie, you know? For example, the old converted, adorable, old, 150-year-old grade school. It looks like a Wes Anderson film. It does, it looks like the beginning of a Wes Anderson film. A text that you guys yesterday,

no one to a wrestling show, it's Circle Brewing. And Circle Brewing is in the area of all gimmicks coffee and it was right at the end of their day. So I was with my buddy who works at lamp post coffee as the roaster at lamp post and they do stuff with nearby, it's where I got that watermelon coffee. So I was with him and I'm like, I wanna take you here because this is a place that we liked for Anima

and I wanna know what you think. We'll see, they might be fucking clothes, they might not have shit, whatever. We walked in, it was the guy who was there before and the other guy who I think runs it or whatever. And I'm like, you guys got, if ice coffee, he's like, we just, he's like, we put it on 18 hours like for like the cycle of like, that's how long it steeps

and we just pulled it so it's ready. Oh wow. And I went, no fucking way, we had the ice coffee. Woohoo, it was so fucking good. And even my buddy was like, I don't know like ice coffee, this is fucking way. We had the ice coffee. Woohoo! It was so fucking good. And even my buddy was like, I don't know, like ice coffee. This is fucking good. Nice, nice, nice. That plays awesome.

All gimmicks, great spot, good spot right before going to that show. And there was like, there were only a few people in there. What a cool spot for coffee, like Korean fried chicken and some cider. Super bizarre. And they were playing old episodes of Full House on the big screen.

Weird. When you walk into the building, I know they're very different places, but it kind of reminds me of Butterfly Bar when you walk in and it's kind of dark and unassuming and there's some sort of fun old movie plan on the wall and just kind of similar vibes. Yeah, yeah, for sure.

We're a little short on time, and I do want to, I mean, typically get to an anarchy question right now. Yeah, but red. We're a little short on time and I do want to typically get to an anarchy question right now, but reddits down, so that kind of hamstrings us. That's okay. It should be. I want to know what you guys are anticipating for RTX, because that's coming up. So we are going to be doing a live show at RTX.

If you come to RTX, you can watch us drink coffee live and then also you can drink coffee in the end.Austin.com. Yeah, see, and what's the day on? July 7th tonight. Oh, that's good. This is a great job. Um, should we get coffee from somewhere around there? Like, let's talk about it a little bit and figure it out.

Well, okay, I said the other day, there's a hound tooth not too far away. We may get something from there. Um, there's like a, there's like a Starbucks right across the street. Yup. Uh, they have a Starbucks right across the street. Yup. They have a new olive oil coffee. Did you see that? I'm trying to get that for Face Jam,

but I don't think they're gonna wanna, I think Michael's gonna be like, I can't eat coffee, so what am I supposed to do? And I feel like, okay, well, I guess we're gonna do that. The olive oil coffee they have at the, the one. The only way we had a coffee themed podcast we could do it on.

They have, yeah, but who's gonna fucking drink Starbucks? Yuck. You did before, we did them all. They have. And they have the olive oil coffee at the Starbucks by the office. Jillian, one of our other producers told me about it. But so get coffee from somewhere else, right?

Because we already did the coffee at. Yeah, at the convention center. At the convention center. Which we talked about, it's not real coffee. That's two sounds great. Okay. We can do that. And then is there anything you guys want to make sure we hit? I'm going to tell you now, and then we're all going to forget.

But that's why. It's only like three weeks away. Three weeks away. By the time this comes out, it's pretty close. I'm just really looking forward to doing it. Just because I love the live performance. Yeah. So my favorite things are historically.

And I don't want to do it that much anymore, but I still do appreciate it. And I think this is the only thing I'll be doing performance-wise in objects, is R&L, that I'm aware of at least, because we don't have any, we're not doing any fuck face. No, we have the museum.

We have the museum. We have the museum. Yeah. And I think I might do some screen printing in the t-shirt booth. Oh man, the screen printing stuff is really cool. Yeah, I really like this design. I might show up for a little bit and do that.

But yeah, I think this will be my RTX. It'll be the same as that. We're doing, are you doing, I'm doing dunk tank. I think I agree to it. Not enough anybody's followed up with me, so I'll do that too. Yeah, let's say one. People can, we'll sit on the dunk tank,

so we can throw balls and try to dunk it in the water. I don't know if we talked about it yet, and that's awesome. And then I'm gonna get out of the water, and I tell them, hey, you get up there. I'm gonna fucking dunk them in the water. Yeah, hell yeah, we're just gonna throw a ball. No, I'm gonna get out of the water and I'm gonna tell them, hey, you get up there. I'm gonna fucking dunk them in the water. Yeah. Hell yeah, I wanna just throw a ball. No, I'm not gonna throw it at the target,

but throw it at the fucking face. If they knock me in the water, I'm throwing up all at them. Ha, ha, ha, ha. Ha, ha, ha, ha. There you go. So RTX is coming up and that should be a lot of fun. I'm really excited for it. For, I mean, Face Jam's gonna have a thing and, you know,

that's separate from what we're doing here, but I think Animal Live is the thing I'm really looking forward to. Again, it's the only place that we're gonna do it live doing here but I think animal live is the thing I'm really looking forward to. Again it's the only place that we're gonna do it live so why not? I really enjoyed the one we did last year. Me too, I've been thinking about it a lot. Yeah, be a legal leaked recording. Yeah, fucking Dennis, what the fuck?

Damn dude. At the fuck. This time it shouldn't be an illegal recording. They asked, hey do you want this recorded and I went, oh yeah I think so. So it's probably a real episode. But I think that'll kind of do it for. We should have. Yeah, I'm so. So probably real episode. Great. But I think that'll kind of do it for... We should have, yeah, I'm gonna noodle on it. We should have a segment that we record there that we don't release,

just to give incentive for people to come to our campus. That's a good idea. We have like an edited version that gets uploaded and get like a special... Okay, so we take something out. Yeah. Okay, so we got to figure that out. No, that we're taking something out.

We're doing something extra. Yeah. We're not subtracting. We're adding. I don't care if they think we're subtracting I'm fucking here cuz RTX. I don't give a fuck if you're complaining about it come to RTX. I'm gonna fuck I have 21 years of PTSD Yeah, oh people are upset. Oh, no What is wrong with me that the second we hit 20, like April 1st, I announced, like on April 2nd, I was like, oh, we're almost 21 now. Like I count up a year immediately.

Talk to him about three decades of podcasting. I totally agree with him. Yeah. I totally agree with him. That's your problem. I 100% agree with him. Yeah, it's like a, across three decades.

It's like a Korean age. You know about that? On January 1st, on the new year, everyone iterates or adds one to their age. I didn't know that. That's not my birthday. It's like, yeah, but you were year older because it's a new year, everyone iterates or adds one to their age. I didn't know that. That's not my birthday. It's like, yeah, but you were year older because it's a new year.

So how old is that? It's only if you do Korean age. I think they're actually facing that out in South Korea. But like, that doesn't make sense. But like, that's the way that they do. If I'm born December 28th, and then it's the first, am I one? Yeah, yeah.

Doesn't make any sense. I'm not one. I think I, no, this I one? Yeah, yeah. It doesn't make any sense. I'm not one. I think I'll, no, this baby fucking stupid for one year old. They might also not count it until like a hundred days after your board. I don't know, there's like a weird intricacies to it. Oh, interesting. Instead of just having the day of your birth, they go, here's some rules. It's complicated.

It's very complicated for no reason. And that might be why they're finally getting rid of it. Well, I think that'll do it for Anima this episode. Is there anything you guys want to leave? Oh you can follow us at Anima podcast on on Twitter and on Instagram. See pictures from this you see the picture of the rusty hepatitis blade and there's a butterfly. I'm not gonna take a picture of that. You've seen a butterfly. It's a butterfly, close your eyes, think of a butterfly. That's pretty neat.

It's a cat. You know, other people can't do that. It's like a monarch. Oh, really? Yeah, there's people who like can't like imagine, I guess. Well, it's just like we found out some people don't have internal dial. Yeah, and it's just like, I think.

It just creeps me out. Do you think they hate John Lennon? I think. You know, imagine all the people. He's probably not in our face. Yeah, I think they're people who can't imagine this stuff and they don't have interdialogue or monologue or whatever. So I think they just act on things like wolves.

Like they simply exist and go. At Anima podcast on Twitter on Instagram, I'm sure the subreddit will be back sometime. So you can check that out. Like all the Reddit. Hopefully. Yeah, like two days of Reddit goes back on that API decision. That seems so

awful. So dumb. Yeah. I think they're following in Twitter's footsteps. I would say they were following in DIG. Yeah. Don't worry, baby. It's dig time. That's fine. The B4 revision. Yeah. Yep.
