Oh, there is nothing quite like the smell of fresh baked bread coming out of the oven.
What if I told you you could get all of the delicious with none of the time and work involved
while you can from wild grain?
If you told me that, why would I go, oh, that sounds good.
That's why I did that.
Wild grain is the first ever bake from frozen subscription box for sourdough breads, fresh
pastas and artisanal pastries.
Unlike typical supermarket bread, wild grain uses a slow fermentation process that's easier
on your belly, lower in sugar and rich in nutrients and antioxidants.
Every item bakes from frozen in 25 minutes or less, you'll never run the risk of getting
bored with wild grain.
You're constantly adding new seasonal and limited time special items to try, plus for
every new member, wild grain donates six meals to the greater Boston food bank so you can
eat good and do good all at the same time.
All you have to do is sign up at wildgrain.com slash doughboys and choose which type of box
you want to receive and how often.
It's easy to reschedule, skip or cancel.
Plus for a limited time, you can get $30 off the first box plus free croissants in every
box when you go to wildgrain.com slash doughboys to start your subscription.
You heard the man, free croissants in every box and $30 off your first box when you go
to wildgrain.com slash doughboys.
That's wildgrain.com slash doughboys or you can use promo code DOBOYS to check out.
Do it.
Hey buddy, it's Wyger.
The WGA strike continues, which means no scripted intros here on the DOBOYS podcast.
Instead, I'm just sort of talking, just sort of saying what's up, saying welcome to the
show.
And you know what?
I thought I'd bring in a special guest for today's intro.
Please welcome the spoon man, Mike Mitchell.
The fuck?
Now, Mitch, I wanted you here because this strike is about WGA, but also SAG After Your
Union has its own labor negotiation coming up.
Your contract ends on June 30th.
And also, your union has been a proud ally of our union at the picket line.
We are at Wygs.
We have our unions, our allies, and I think that I support the cause 100%.
Working-class writers have also been squeezed out of this industry where it's, I mean, it's
a dying breed.
So we're right behind you.
So hopefully, you know, in the next month or two, we're going to be going on strike
with you or at least, you know, maybe you get a deal and we follow suit.
Hopefully that's something that happens, but it's industry-wide.
So I'm right there with you.
I support you guys.
I'm going out in the lines, getting out of breath, you know, I have a few minutes.
You've been out there though, and we appreciate you.
Let me tell you, when I'm out of breath, I go into the studio, I have relax.
They got some very comfortable seats in there.
AC is blasted.
AC is blasted.
Lots of snacks.
No one's there.
They're all in Hawaii.
But Wygs, I appreciate what you do.
We're seeing you on TV.
You're a strike captain.
You're leading the line.
You're doing a great job.
We appreciate it.
Everyone's doing what they can.
There's lots of great people out there.
I was looking up my drop to be clear when he threw this on me.
I didn't say, I didn't know, you didn't know I was going to do it.
If I had known, I would have scabbed out.
I wouldn't have written a fucking great intro.
Mitch, I have this thing I started doing, which is Wyger's Needle.
Two in the morning, Ice Cube got the Fat Burger.
I don't know.
I thought that that would be some sort of o-brain.
I may have been the opening when we did this fat.
We did this chain originally.
Possibly.
Yeah.
Mitch, I have this thing I've been doing, Wyger's Needle Stat of the Week.
This one, I think you'll appreciate.
Wait, did you steal it from Ernie Johnson?
Yeah, I stole it from Ernie Johnson.
Here it is.
You'll appreciate this as someone who's acted on multiple Netflix shows.
Last year, Netflix alone made $6 billion in profits.
Staggering.
They're like, there's no money in streaming.
We can't pay you guys.
They made $6 billion in profits last year alone.
Interesting.
Yeah.
Especially for the amount of money I've made working on Netflix shows.
Yes.
It's very interesting.
Yeah.
Very interesting.
Anyway.
Doesn't make me that angry.
People are like, Mitch has stares, and I'll say this.
This is the truth.
Yes.
The only time I've made money in this industry is from our podcast, which we're lucky to
have.
Very lucky to have.
Very lucky to have.
But also, part of the reason we have a fucking podcast is because it's hard to make a living
100%.
Doing these jobs.
And if I didn't have the podcast, I wouldn't be able to survive on what I made as an actor,
which a lot of people probably see me here like, I mean, people back home, people think
I work.
You know what I mean?
People aren't like, Mitch doesn't work.
I work.
I've had good success as an actor, and I'm lucky to have that success too.
And that's the thing is like, I could not afford to live out here on those wages alone.
I was, by the time we started Doe Boys, I was running thin on birthday boys money, and
love money.
And then it was like, once the Patreon started, I was like, okay, I don't have to worry about
that anymore.
But month to month, it would be close to impossible.
Your pal Wags was like, hey, man, I built a rocket ship, hop in the passenger seat,
and go into the fucking moon.
Passenger seat.
I was riding it.
I was riding on the outside of it like, what is the movie?
Kubrick movie?
Slim Pickens.
Yeah, there we go.
That works too.
Well, why can't I think of the Kubrick movie where, you know, the Doctor Strange love?
Yeah, Slim Pickens is the actor.
And people are going to be so mad at me that I...
Mitch doesn't wish.
Mitch doesn't wish.
You remember Doctor Strange, but not your Doctor Strange love?
I know.
I forgot.
I forgot Doctor Strange love.
All right.
We got to start the episode.
This week on Doe Boys, Fat Burger.
Fat Burger.
Welcome to Doe Boys, the podcast about chain restaurants.
I'm Nick Weiger, along with my co-host, Strike Mitchell.
Hey, I like that.
The Spoon Man, Mike Mitchell.
I like that a lot.
This one, this is from Trevor in Tucson who writes, not much of a roast per se, but until
WGA gets its demands, the roasts might just be this bad, solidarity with workers wherever
they are.
Thanks, Trevor.
That's a nice sentiment, roastspoominagmail.com.
Here's the thing.
Yeah.
I said I was looking for, I was looking for a drop.
I haven't found one yet.
Do I go dropless?
Is this like my thing?
I'm like, no drops during the strike.
I mean, I guess it doesn't really.
Yeah.
It doesn't really track in the same way.
Also...
You can't just give me that for today.
Just pretend that it kind of works.
Okay, fine.
You can do no drop story, but then you have to commit to it, but you're not going to want
to do that.
I'm not going to do that.
I want to play drops for the people.
Find a drop.
I'm trying to get one.
Did no one send you a drop?
Just relax.
Just kill some more time.
We're fine.
I had a couple of things I wanted to talk about, actually, which is that your buddy,
Vinod, who runs the...
Great.
Great.
He runs the Doughboys Wikipedia.
For some reason, a man with a life and a career, but he takes some of his time aside and maintains
the Doughboys Wikipedia, this amazing archive of all of our episodes.
This is the thing.
You talk to him.
You're like, this is a smart dude.
Yeah.
He's like...
And then you're like, what the fuck is wrong with you?
What the fuck is wrong with you?
Yeah.
I don't want to dox his profession too much, but he's like an actual career.
Yeah.
And then you're like, what's your problem?
But he actually came out and joined me on the picket line.
We walked around a little bit.
Oh, hell yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, I've seen him around.
He's come to a couple of shows.
Maybe I'll see him tonight.
Yeah.
This will be well-dated, but I...
Not that dated.
Yeah, you're right.
Because it's coming out next Thursday.
Yeah.
I'm doing a show tonight and the benefits go to the WGA.
God bless you.
Community fund.
I should know the exact wording of that before I say it, but you know, whatever.
I'm looking it up.
It says the funds are going to the AMPTP Buffet Fund.
Bitch, what'd you commit to?
That buffet is going to look fucking great.
If you're going to Buffet, what's the thing you want to see in the Buffet?
We should ask our guest this, too.
Fuck, that's a really good question.
Let's put a pin in the Buffet question because I want to come back to that.
But I think that's really...
I've fallen off of Buffets, but I'll fuck this one.
You got up on top of them and you were taking food.
Is that how you're falling off?
No, I think part of it is, first off, I don't have a huge appetite for someone who's a food
dude.
I get full off of one plate, so I never get my money's worth.
Unlike your lovely wife, who has a great appetite.
Oh, my God, it's a bottomless pit.
Yeah, I know, it's fucking impressive.
She gets her money's worth at the buffet, but I'm like the sucker at the Craps table,
and then the...
Cuck-ass, can't fucking...
Honey, will you finish my meal, I'm full.
She feels you watching her as she finishes your meal, fucking grossed out.
Also, bitch, some more time to kill, Tears of the Kingdom out today, the new Zelda franchise.
The entry in the Zelda franchise, both are gonna be playing that.
Uh, yeah, I am, I'm gonna, I'm sorry, we're getting an update on, uh...

Forwarded.
Forwarded.
Now I lost again.
Forwarded.
Forwarded.
Forwarded.
Forwarded.
Think of forwarded.
Let me tell you, it ain't easy.
This is not easy.
That's what we want to emphasize.
What we're doing is not easy.
All right, I got a drop box.
Forwarded sounds like a sketch character.
You look good in that dress.
That's forwarded.
That's too forwarded.
Yeah.
Your dad dying must have been sad, huh?
Oh boy, forwarded.
You fucked me out.
That's all.
Yeah.
I can't write forwarded all by myself.
I don't even...
I should be writing it during the strike.
That was him, Prophet Pashaun.
All right.

style joke back in the day I made a pass over a gangam style video Wow long-time
fan first-time writer David Kasdan thanks David this is a sound alike to clear
copyright oh okay oh that's nice it's very nice thank you for evading a fucking
IP law hmm this isn't gonna get a takedown on YouTube that's great that's
huge yeah that's huge for us all right that happened last week I don't remember
that at all yeah wow yeah this isn't easy none of this is easy well this is
easy this rocket ship that he was talking about
I'm it you on Mitch we have a great guest with us today a stand-up comedian
writer from Digman the late late show and her Juno award-winning album Grandma's
Girl Andrea Jen is here hi Andrea thanks for making time for us hi thank you for
having me thanks so much for being here yeah sorry about all that bullshit yeah
this that's a very fun we should do that probably up top of every episode is
like thank you for being here sorry that the show is bad
I what we talked about Mitch brought up a face and so I'll put the question to you
as an opener yeah you're at a buffet what's the thing you want to see okay
my I don't know why and this has not no quality to it but the first thing that
popped up in my head was corn but that's stupid like no that would be so
shit at a buffet yeah you like a dish of corn niblets maybe all corn no I was
thinking of like creamed corn which is kind of just you kind of just one
wags and I yeah it's I mean yeah it's kind of a gross dish but I don't see
another buffet no that's like weird that's like a shitty buffet yeah I guess
yeah it might be shitty but you know what I mean here's where my head went I
don't even know why but I was like chicken fingers of some sort that's why
I was at a buffet you know what I want what's that first off when I'm
meeting me carving station yeah I want the guy want the deal with the fork and
that's all that's a blast you've now taken the hood off literally because
that's not a hooded buffet oh you're talking steam trays only I mean don't
you feel you don't like omelet bars off the table okay so what do you think is
is carving table a little a little bit of a cheat I think it is a little bit I
mean yeah it depends on the kind of a thing I'm when I think of a buffet I
think of like golden corral yeah right and I feel like they don't have a
carving table at Golden Corral no they have a chocolate wonderful it's a great
answer I'm not saying it's a very good answer a really fancy one will have like
a guy and with like a chef's hat carving behind love a guy yeah I want a guy at
the but that's what I want a guy there's the guy some fucking hunk just stay at
the end you get your food and then you just like kind of nodded him but like
logically a good buffet will have like seafood yeah sure yeah yeah like you
want a buffet to have like some kind of expensive crab oh yeah yeah crab legs or
something my soul yeah shit that's good too I mean it's funny because where my
head went after that was sliders like burger sliders that's it so I'm thinking
of shitty buffet too clearly where chicken fingers and burger sliders are
like what like cheeseburger sliders or what I'm thinking but I think yeah like
crab or some sort of lobster or something that's yeah that's like a fancy
ass Vegas buffet or something yeah they're like casino buffets yeah yeah I
was at a casino buffet once and like I think the best item they had was it was
seafood but it was a smoked sturgeon I was like I was not expecting this to hit
like it did but it was real good that you went into the buffet and then then like
footage of like at the end of casino where the casinos are coming down they had
a close shot I guess like that is close everything yeah yeah I haven't been to
Vegas in a while and the food scene there is great there's a good food down you
because uh who I shouldn't doxer but wasn't Emma is Emma there well it won't
matter by the time we air this right so I still not think our listeners will go
back in time to try to be Emma I think it's possible oh man like time cops but
time creeps which hotel what's the name of the hotel and address
it's a great question I don't know that Emma is going to Vegas at some points part
of why she's not here at this this particular record seven a great time
there but yeah she was looking for some shit I know she's looking for some
restaurant racks yeah lots of it's a great food town all not just obviously
people always think the buffets but there's like great restaurants inside
the hotel casinos but then also off strip there's like great Thai food there
there you know there's like a we've had we've had a bunch of great options there
yeah I want to go back just for food reasons but I oh it's always
overwhelming and I don't know if I've ever eaten at like a great Vegas buffet
but I kind of I'm of the mind we've talked about this before I don't care
about buffets that much me neither they're not good they're not good I don't
love buffets there's it's two there's too many choices I remember I went to the
Disney character breakfast buffet by myself yeah not too long ago yeah and
this is the last time I went to Disney World yeah I went with my god my my god
children right and and they're like get back to work Baru
I want to be like you
like giving you tips
and that actually the like the food was good but I think a part of it is just on
me where I I can't trust myself to make a good plate yeah I just can't make a good
plate no I can't do it I have the same thing when I'm at an Andrew Pearson this
happens to you but like I'm at a bowl place like I want the prefab bowls I
don't want to have to make too many options because I'm worried I'm gonna
screw things up or make your own pizza place same thing no it's a lot of
pressure yes it's so much pressure and it's always this panic of like I need to
get my money's worth right I need to get my money's worth but also fuck this
restaurant or establishment like I need to one up them I not even my money's
worth I need to like potentially eat a dent in the day yes and it's like that
pressure that's such a bad mindset to go into a place like all right I'm gonna
fucking screw this place that's a weird thing with buffets and also as a big
guy wise I don't know how you feel about this but for when you're a big guy at a
buffet like you're always going up for another plate but then you're like I
don't want to be like the guy who's going up for the other plate that gets into
my head too sure but then like the way I do it is like I'm like because I'm not
good at plating I'll have like just a few things on my first plate and then I
like I maybe eat less at a buffet than I would a restaurant like I think I
actually don't eat as much because I have that thing too we're like you got to
get your money's worth but then I just end up like getting a few things I'm
like whatever this is what it was and I don't I don't feel like going up and
getting more yeah and the fact that we are all thinking of this is like I don't
want to think about this when I'm eating like have a normal nice time yeah I
much rather sit down and have someone serve me like I'm much more
into restaurants than buffets. I just want to see Daisy Duck walk over hand me the
plate. I give her my number.
Andra you're from you grew up in Vancouver yes yeah and because we've
talked about it we're talking a little bit before this podcast because we're
talking about a burger chain obviously but one that you mentioned is A&W
Canada one of the best chains we've ever visited on tour. Oh you guys like that.
Yeah I love A&W Canada. Would you not like it? I love it so much. It's so good. Yeah but
I mean it's good it's good for what it is like it's it's kind of like the healthy
burger option yeah sure you know I I I mean I loved it and I don't I don't know
much of Canadian eats I mean obviously we've eaten our way through Canada
before and I've had a many meals up there but I don't know as far as fast
food but that's funny if you if you say that it's like the healthy option I'm
like oh probably compared to like McDonald's or Wendy's or something yeah
that makes that makes sense but also Canada in general I was thinking of
this you know my you know my Glendale test wags where I'm like Glendale's like
they're like all the fast foods but your shorts are your shorts are riding up
yeah shorts are riding up the shirts kind of riding up they are almost they
are nearly gone yeah I know I'm trying to stay cool in the studio because the
studio gets hot and they fix the AC's and that's kind of cool in here but I
saw the I was on the picket line earlier so I didn't change my shorts there was a
part of me that saw you know I was like are those like is that underwear the
thing we loved about A&W is those cold root beer mugs that they gave you cold
mugs but that's a nice touch it's it's great my I have a Glendale test where
I'm like all like so many fast food places if you're going to Glendale
they're like pristine and very nice it didn't the only time it didn't work out
to be true was a what's the bowl place Yoshinoya shit show but Canada is kind
of like the Glendale to America's LA like it's like Canada's kind of like the
clean sure and then like down here like we you know we're in the muck down here
so I could imagine like an A&W like a very Canadian fast food place being kind
of the cleaner healthier version as when you compare it to Wendy's or McDonald's
or Burger King or something like yeah because their whole thing is like they
don't use antibiotics for their like beef and like hormone what up free chicken
and like you know right GMO free blah blah blah like all this like marketing
stuff like oh it's like real cheese so it feels like it's healthy and so I was
like at one point I was eating it every day after shows and every day wow it's
disgusting but but then I was like oh no it's fine because they don't hormone the
beef and I'm like and then I'm eating it every day after a show at like 2 a.m.
and so you know that's the old comedy too that's just the way that you
sometimes just have to eat something at one right one or two in the morning well
I'm just I didn't realize they were open that late yeah there's 24-hour ones
tell us you're down on the states you live here what do you think of all
those hormones and antibiotics that we give you in our I'm a real American you
feel strong and not sick but in and out is great that is my it's a light
switch for him he's very excited it is good in and out burger is good and I've
come around it and you know what very much relates to the restaurant we're
talking about today because I think that it's the one in two to me why similar
so Cal institutions they're both like kind of you know from from LA or from
southern California and they have a huge fandom here although they've expanded
elsewhere very much in case I would go back to your we need some more food
here a little bit because no I know I'm just curious because you ate there so
regularly like what was your typical order oh my god I would get I would get
a teen burger with no onion listening I would get a buddy burger I'll get to
buddy burgers with no onions and to buddy burgers wait you're getting three
burgers I would get three burgers no fries wow yeah and sometimes on your
rings that's a lot of food I just got it was just I just got I just got so mad at
you cuz I mean you also probably eat well other times but I but I that that's
like I wish I could like I do I have night I have nights where I eat three
burgers and then I'm like I this is like I've done it like I like it does feel
like if we've talked about this before but it feels like the wrestler or
something when he goes up like in his last match yeah like a night where I
get three burgers I'm like this is it this is like this is the big this is the
big final outing I've done it like I feel like I'm gonna die there'll be like
two boys live in Minneapolis but like no but it was like it was like I felt
like I was gonna die you know yeah it was like and I it felt okay cuz I was
drinking Diet Coke so now I was like oh it's okay I'm drinking
so I can get three burgers I'm escaping the sugar from the Diet Coke and then I
was sleeping till 4 p.m. doing shows and this is like his like caricature of me
yeah yeah you sound more Mitch than Mitch and then I would yeah eat three
burgers and Diet Coke at night and I like sleep at yeah like three to two
a eat at 2 a.m. and then watch movies until like 5 a.m. and then sleep till 4
but yeah like that was my life until and then something had to happen and it was
like the pandemic happened oh wow yeah and then it stopped that behavior so I
think I caused it I caused the pandemic I think from living like so depraved and
I think some source out there was like we need to stop the only thing that can
stop it is like a global pandemic or something the powers that be yeah it's
funny I haven't slept till like for I mean like but I had days like that back
in the day and you really when you're in when you're in like a skin like if
you're in a thing like that like I feel like when I was like 22 or something I
could that could happen and you are also much younger than us but like that was
the thing that was like like that I would hate myself when I would sleep that
like and it would happen a lot where I'd be like man I'm missing like son I had
those I had those like those slides down you know because I've always had sleep
problems and and I go to bed earlier now but you know I had times when I stayed
up later when I was younger and yeah I want I like I I've definitely had like
oh I'm gonna stay up all night to try to get my sleep on track and then I go to
bed and then I like sleep to like you know like yeah after like like 6 p.m. the
next day like I'm so certainly late amount of time you know and then I'm
just completely fucked but I think a lot of people experience that especially in
their 20s well thank you for making me feel better about it but I mean it got
to a point where I was like what I do like I like you know when you're like
you can't even I don't even know how to change like that's how far it went it's
not like I was living like oh I love my life like this is awesome I'm doing this
yeah like it was like fuck like I would wake up when the Sun's going out yeah
my god what am I oh like I'm not come on and but then not know how to change and
I'm going through the A&W drive-thru again just like yeah yeah yeah I can't
believe that I can relate to this so much I mean like it doesn't I never
thought that you would be the same way I but like when I was 22
wags I worked as a bouncer at the snake pit and then that was for me I get
Carl's Jr. yeah two or three in the morning by the way that job sounds way
cooler than it actually was I was a bouncer of the snake pit like this is
like it was a bar it was not a pit of snakes you're guarding an Indiana Jones
character protecting this pit of snakes like an Indiana Jones like Digman loves
snakes so yeah you'd want to get in there you don't want to get in there but
no I that was I was like in that zone right be like eating at two or three in
the morning and then like what then you don't go to bed you watch a TV that's
that's a thing that we find too with like touring or whatever you do the show
and then you're exhausted and then you can't even sleep which is the fucked up
thing of it is tired and wired because you got that energy yeah like the
adrenaline of like I don't know I mean it's it's when you're you're performing
it's like there's there's there's juice that's being absorbed it's hard to
take for us often times literally especially from our fans we brought you
juice you mean drink no absorb so okay so what are there other vancouver eats
that you miss yeah yeah yeah there's sushi the sushi is amazing oh yeah
interesting sushi is great and then a lot of good seafood up there a lot of
good seafood very fresh and I love the Chinese food is like it really compares
like nowhere else compares to Chinese food in Vancouver interesting what is
what's the style is it authentic is because I always talk about this in the
podcast people make fun of me but there's east coast Chinese food which is like
they do they do like poo-poo platter stuff very well American Chinese American
yeah and then and then here I feel like in LA you do get a lot of authentic
different styles of Chinese food and there's great certainly we go great
like Monterey Park Alhambra yeah yeah what's the deal up in Vancouver what
what okay I talked about this with so many people like so many Chinese people
because it's so good and what the formula I figured out is because it's so
close to China it's like a port city it's so close to China all the chefs come
here and we say that it's like even better than Chinese food in China because
the chefs come here so they like take their skills to Vancouver but the
quality of ingredients are way better than like China because it's more fresh
it's like regulated more strictly so the quality the ingredients are more fresh
and so it just makes it taste better it's wild so yeah a lot of people that
come from China say oh this is better than China that's wild wait cuz you were
you were born in Shanghai you live the first part of your life there yes yeah
do you have like a point like do you remember it enough to compare the food
of of Shanghai versus Vancouver yeah it's better it's better and in Vancouver
wow for sure I'm a boston guy and I wouldn't go I would never be like the
Chinese food in Boston is better than it would say but that's that's I mean I
guess that that makes sense to I mean you you just have the you know you got
the ocean right there you got all the flies they got all the fish right there
exactly so the dim sum is great I've had this out here though and it's very good
it's very good it's just like not as there's this I don't know there's this
border around the the food here that's like it's a bit more of like a frayed like
it it's a bit dingier like Vancouver Vancouver tastes more fresh even it
was like deep fried whatever I believe that it still tastes more like light you
know have you have you done like the Monterey Park was that what you're gonna
talk about no I was gonna say so you're saying that Vancouver they have dim
some down here we have dinged some sorry I'm sorry sorry thanks for being here
sorry yes Monterrey Park is where there's a lot of great Asian food right
likes including a lot of great Chinese food restaurants yeah have you ever
made the trip out there for that or yeah there's some pretty far for like
Chinese food and to a point where I was like what the fuck am I doing driving so
far and then I understand that it is a drive yeah I'm like what the fuck like
sitting in traffic just like this is fucked up what I'm doing and it is also
like I feel like anytime like an LA person which I don't consider myself an
LA person but anytime an LA person hears like oh you know like the Chinese
food or whatever and they're like have you ever been to Monterey Park they do
exactly what I did but it is but the truth is that there are some good spots
out yeah for sure are yeah and then I go there and then I eat it and I'm like
okay yeah this is better yeah but not better than Vancouver you're saying
right it it's so close okay it's very close it's very good it's very authentic
like yeah there's a lot of I think like Chinese chefs there I want to hit up
I mean I was just thinking of this as long like one of the long drive food
places donut man oh yeah oh is that in California oh yeah oh it's great in
Glendora and there's also there is a donut man in the grand central market
in downtown but this is a whole thing we've talked about this in the podcast
before but it's got like you know it's the name of the place is scary it seems
like some sort of like yeah seems like some sort of monster donut man is there's
one there's one downtown what is it what is it what's not no no
grand central market yeah yeah they've got one and I don't know how much it is
like the real one but yes this this this dude and he just like puts fresh fruit
into these like like macerated peaches into these the fresh famous for a
strawberry donut yeah they were strawberry they remind me of like the
like the the drives for good cast the Pasadena has a I call the Casadena which
makes sense because our buddy Cassidy lives out that way not a mistake not a
mistake Casadena Casadena yeah but Pineburger Wikes like the drives that's
like one of the drive spots I'll take a drive especially if it's east I'm so much
more likely to take a drive out east sure yeah no I used to love donuts like so
and then I went too far yeah well how so well just I just was like buying like
well like doesn't a box of done like just for me it's not for a party yeah
this is gonna make me pretty mad to the kind of a pattern how many of those were
you eating I would eat half I would eat six you know in one
serve and then I would pass out from like just exhaustion you know I would
wake up you don't take offense this how don't you look like shit I'm not doing
anything I'm not doing anything I don't know some people tell me it's cuz I'm
Asian but that doesn't make sense that's not it's like that's not related I don't
think I think that I think that there's like I think look I'm Irish and I think
that that like if I eat a burger I blow up and I feel like shit and I look like
shit I think that they're there I don't know how big of a factor that is cuz you
see let's not get into race science
I have some good theories on this stuff but the truth is you see you see Asian
people see Irish people they can look like shit okay I know what you're saying
okay my theory with doughnuts was I was like historically my people weren't
eating doughnuts you know so maybe my body is just like this isn't anything so
like this isn't like this isn't we're not registering this as anything so just
go and that's in my head I'm like okay the maybe that's what's happening that
honestly I think that that maybe explains it for me I think scientifically it
checks out yeah Joe Rogan would be listening to us go and like
this is this is absolutely right I I moved on at one point I was a Dunkin
Donuts hometown is is Quincy Massachusetts yeah oh really my hometown is
Dunkin Donuts hometown and I loved a good chocolate frosted still probably my
favorite donut likes a good chocolate frosted but for me donuts got harder
when it became like especially when it became an adult yeah just in the in the
world of like here's your breakfast and if it was just donuts I was like is on
there was a day at the Simpsons I think every Friday we'd bring in donuts and
then the last Friday the month we bring in McDonald's God man breakfast Homer
would fucking take it that box of donuts we fucking tell ya on ham on him he
and and you know what sometimes we get chocolate frosty milkshakes too that's
one of Homer's favorite it's one of his favorite drinks
Duff yeah right chocolate malt 11 fucking Barney's probably showing up
here the tough look it was the office of the Simpsons so you never knew what
character was gonna want to be honest with you though like you go in you're
like oh Wendell's here you're like when like it's just Wendell you speak of
Homer and Barney and people get start burping yeah but yeah like it would be
like Wendell's here like Mod Flanders yeah that's great yeah but um donuts
every every Friday and it was that sort of thing was like oh it's just donuts
here for breakfast I was like this isn't I can't I can't do this sometimes I'd
get an apple fritter or a couple apple fritters that'd be nice to have a little
bite of but yeah just too much as an adult you I can't do a breakfast and I've
talked about this before where donuts are like the dessert of breakfast is what
I think sure so I can have like an egg or an egg sandwich and then have a donut
afterwards but then you're having kind of a big breakfast yeah that's a lot I
want for me I reserve a donut for like an occasional breakfast treat but I
can't do make that an everything but you just do solo donut and coffee yeah I
just have a donut and coffee and it'll be just like a little bit of food to
start sort of the day calories yeah I know that is a lot of colors I get it
but for me it would be like I'm getting a bacon egg and cheese croissant and a
donut that's what I I like and then I eat the donut second yeah you know it's
been destroying that's been just like horrible for me is the picket lines
hmm I've had been so much doughnuts yeah people which is nice hey the box of
donuts Jay will show up everywhere just flinging donuts all over the place here
you go and I'm having the dough and I cameras that I have to yeah and I'm like
oh you know and then my oh and I have to go home yeah I had a I had like a
buttermilk bar from it was a Eve Anderson and I were one line together and
someone brought like like doughnuts from this place Primo's which is like a
fantastically you know local doughnut was J I yeah I was fucking J I knew it
drove up in a Model T and it's so nice it's so nice for people to be bringing
all this stuff but it's really nice yeah cutting my picket time in half yeah
I will sure that's the thing is like like you have like I had like a buttermilk
bar and it was just like you know just a solid like brick of starch and sugar and
then I'm fucking walking in the sun for three hours it's just it's brutal um well
I would have these like like not complaining about free food it's lovely
it's so nice it's just that that it absolutely can bog you down when you're
like oh is here I'll fucking eat it and I have no self-control yeah having like
four yeah you know we're famed for our self-control

welcome back to dough boys we're here with Andrea Jen discussing this week's
chain fat burger founded in 1947 182 locations worldwide famously referenced
by ice cube and it was a good day in Mitch's intro also the Mitch the parent
company fat brands owns a number of chains we've covered including fizzoli
I was I was dough boys not a under the fat brands umbrella perfect fit it
certainly would along with we would stand alongside fizzoli's hot dog gonna
stick Johnny Rockets and round table pizza so the this company owns fat
burger and all these other brands it also Mitch is in the Golden Plate Club we
were last reviewed in July 2016 with Yamara Taylor way back in the day
received four and a half five forks from you and four and a half forks for me I
gave it four and a half so it's in the Golden Plate Club and it's pretty
firmly in there will it remain we're gonna find out Andrea you'd never had
fat burger before no yeah I just stuck with a and w until I moved here and then
I transitioned to in and out did they have fat burger in Vancouver yeah there
was one we only had one though and then I always drove by it because it was near
and a and w that I would drive to and I always always like change things up
today no yeah I don't even know where the drive-thru is
well fat burger couldn't get one of your three yeah I don't like change here's a
question for you spoon man how frequently have you been to fat burger in the
intervening years since we last reviewed it because I will say like it's a
it's not an infrequent place for me but it's also not my go-to burger place it's
not my go-to burger place either I like it every time I get it I'm like this is
great but hmm yeah I don't know I haven't I haven't been there I've been
there maybe two times or something since we've since we've last gone I like it
it just is like you know I try not to eat fast food whenever we're not I still
do yeah but I go to the old standards I go to like McDonald's or Wendy's but
it's great and I don't understand why I don't every time I get as good and also a
place when I wasn't eating carbs wags for a while which is a failure but that
was like that burger was a place where you just get the burger patty and toppings
and it was great like the beef is good it's really good quality product I think
it goes a long way and I'd you know I I assume it it's I don't think it's a and
w Canada quality but you know it is better beef than you'd have it most fast
food places and the thing that they've done a lot in fairly recently is they've
really expanded their plant-based options including they have an impossible
burger now which I think which is what I got today and I think it's pretty damn
good I think it's a pretty damn good impossible burger I added you know I got
mine with the works which their version of the works let me let me track down all
the ingredients but it's just like basically a bunch of different
condiments and I also got a I added cheddar cheese and then I put a couple
onion rings on there which is an option I like that you can get I had some nice
little crunch um I saw that move and I wanted to copy you but then I didn't
want to copy you so I didn't I didn't end up doing I just I want I went with
a with the classic but you got yourself a King burger which is a big boy I did
but I didn't get the King burger it didn't it didn't come as a king they
gave you a regular burger came as a regular fat burger I try to get the
half-pound burger yeah which I mean like maybe they were doing me and maybe they
were it's the same thing with the pandemic happened maybe they're just
like we're not gonna give them like we're not giving them the half-pound
burger we're making an executive decision we won't let this stand at fat
brands this is too much here by the way I have all the ingredients for the works
lettuce tomato onion mayo mustard pickles relish so nothing except for
the relish pretty standard no ketchup I'm in the I know that's weird to me why
is there no ketchup I don't know it's it is an interesting choice that they they don't
they go sans ketchup I don't know ketchup really I'm okay with no I think it's a
great combo and I think you dip it in the ketchup if you want ketchup so it
works I guess I saw I'm okay with it but I'm a ketchup man I like ketchup on my
burger yeah yeah I've never talked to anyone that fat burger is their go-to
yeah I don't know why that is I mean even missing some like it factor I guess I
think that even when I was a boy and I you know I heard today is a good day or
whatever I I was like oh fat burger I want to try fat burger well then when
you come out here everyone is so about in an out burger it takes it definitely
takes the backseat to to fat burger I think it's also kind of like neighborhood
based to a backseat to in an up yeah I think it's also kind of neighborhood
based to like I feel like there's certain neighborhoods where like fat burger is
the go-to you know so I I don't think that's like I really really like fat
burger I'm a big I think it's good I get in and out more frequently but that's
also like there were in and outs closer to where I lived when I was growing up
and so I have more nostalgia for it but every like exactly what you're saying
earlier bitch every time I get it I feel like it's hitting and I think it was
hitting today well how was your burger though it wasn't it wasn't the big no
it was good there was there was a fat burger right by the birthday boys house
oh that's right we get a lot but it was right there and it was a good option to
have you know you see him like cook the patty on the flat top grill you know what
I mean like it was like it was it would be great yeah you can see everything
prepared to order I mean it's like it's definitely another tier above the
standard sort of fast food place yeah yeah oh that's one of the things is like
they they you can watch them cook it I mean you kind of can't I mean like it's
not like an open kitchen but it's like it is like you know they're a little bit
more I feel like forward with like we're making this to order this isn't
something that's you this this stuff's a little bit fresher look if yours if you're
creepy enough you can watch pretty much anything that's basically a fabric you
can kind of like go and stand by the grill and see if you want to pretend to
be looking for the bathroom you can you can like see them working on you can see
him working on the I'd say like more so than like your McDonald's or Wendy's it
is it's it's kind of like they're at the counter and you can kind of see him
doing it it's a it's again a kind of akin to in and out in the sense that like
you know it like in and out it goes back to when these fast food chains were
were founded a lot of them that you know came about in the 40s and 50s but it kind
of kept its way of like preparing these things a little bit more traditionally
with a little bit more labor whereas the ones the chains that got bigger and more
national like started to mechanize everything and and and you know kind of
lower their quality a little bit yeah in terms of efficiency so yeah I think it
absolutely retains that I think American a great American burger stand it's that
sort of 100% I think that's in it is that what in and out thing is the the
great American burger stand I'd like that's it it has that California yeah
or a burger here we're frying up burgers on the flat top and and and they're
fresh and here they are that's that's what it feels like Andrea like what did
you think of your burger I had what did I have I don't remember it was you had
something on wheat yeah I had a wheat bun I'm all I'm always doing that I'm
always doing some I'm like oh that's a week code where I can have this so that
so that justifies it like Diet Coke or like wheat bun yeah I'm like but it's
like no it just makes a shittier yeah and then I am still doing the thing you
know actually I have your exact order here because I saw it with you or I was
on this email you sent to me I'll do the original fat burger a third pound with
wheat bun cheddar cheese and mayo lettuce tomato and pickles relish and
mustard with a diet Pepsi also follow-up email can I swap a strawberry shake
into the diet Pepsi which is a power move I like that I mean that's a great
choice no it's me just like sitting with myself for a little bit being like just
just get it you stupid bitch just do it you're doing you know you're doing a
podcast just do it like just get the strawberry shake don't be a coward and
then I am like can we actually do the strawberry yeah and so that's that's funny
because that's we kind of have this similar inner monologue yeah do I want
the chocolate shake I'm like just get it you fucking bitch who are you well who
do you think you are you're not gonna get it and you know what the wheat bun is
a wheat bun makes you feel more full with the wheat is better than than just a
regular but there's it though like so I mean I think that there's different
viewpoints on it right yeah yeah I look what if I get like a Jersey Mike sandwich
a lot of times I'll opt for wheat a because I kind of like how it tastes I
like the texture but be it usually has a little bit more you could always check
the nutritional facts on whatever the fuck you're ordering these days but I
usually has some dietary fiber and I feel like anytime I'm eating fast food
that's the thing that's lacking so it's like okay I can get a little bit of
fiber with this meal I can feel a little bit better about myself a little
little bit lower in terms of net carbs and just a little bit better gastro
intestinal I think the wheat bun is a solid move I'll do a fucking we spun a
wheat bun at islands now we'll do it too yeah yeah I like it thank you yeah it
was good I really liked the burger it was yeah just like does does the job for
sure yeah I think I think that they do it's in logs don't get mad here but
what they don't know sometimes it can get a little too vegetably oh it can
sometimes you're tasting a lot of that like lettuce and that fat burger is not
an issue ever you got to admit it's a little bit more it's a little bit
meatier I think it's a bigger patty and it's not yet doesn't have as many
vegetables piled on that's the original fat burger basically oh go ahead no
sorry I'm the opposite I want it to be like the thinnest patty I get mad when
it the patty is too thick interesting yeah I also I also get that perspective I
think that burger does a great job with it but I I I'm okay with a thin burger
patty but if it's too if the ratio is off if it like tastes like I'm eating
lettuce lettuce burger then that's what I get if I if I if I can tell I'm eating
lettuce I get mad has to be trick like snuck in yes yes like a dog with like
their medicine wrap it in peanut butter put it in my mouth and sometimes I'll
just cough up the lettuce yeah no the thickness of the fat burger patty was
like just below how like if it's too thick for me like it's not too thick
yeah right yeah cuz it was like gourmet places where they are charging like 20
bucks for a burger usually they like to be like oh yeah we have you know Angus
beef this and that and then it's like the patty is the size of like the bun yeah
you're getting like the fucking you're getting like this orb of meat you're
gonna I have sore on is like I don't fucking want that patty portion yeah
exactly what is this yeah yeah I get angry no I think that's fair I I'm with
you I don't I don't like that either and especially I've talked about this
before like turkey sandwiches or something if it's like stacked too high
with like turkey I'm like I don't want this much meat it's too much I don't
want just like a mouthful of meat that's like I want other things otherwise I
would go get a stack of turkey meat and I would just eat that but it's like you're
a chef can you do it yes do correct better yeah how much like what is the
right because you're like open your mouth there's like yeah I do you want
like like all like all the way to your teeth are like a little bit lower like a
little bit like do you want it stacked so high you got no I don't want you
want but you want a mouthful of meat you can do a normal open yeah and then just
kind of fit your teeth around it no I don't even want to strain okay if my
mouth is getting bigger than how I normally talk okay I'm pissed so you
want to be it's still a little relaxed just kind of like a fully relaxed yeah
okay if I have to just open like I'm at the fucking dentist yeah yeah now he's
got a fucking he's got a mouthful of me the guy fabric is like this is pretty
good I think I've never tried from wings to over from fat burger I said wings to
stop because I was thinking of their wings the Buffalo's Express wings Mitch
have you ever gotten these I thought about getting them for this but I was
like it feels like it feels like it's own thing it feels like a sub it might
have if you don't mind thanks Casey fall asleep so they have the fat burgers a
lot of the fat burgers have an attached Buffalo's Express wings which I've
never had and I thought about getting for this one but I was kind of like I feel
like the wings are their own thing I don't wings they do yeah yeah I guess
maybe I don't think of it see but I don't first off it's something that
happened in recent years like they didn't always have the Buffalo's Express
it's like within the past decade or so when they started adding these on and I
also don't think of it is like when I think of fat burger I'm not thinking
about wings I'm thinking about the burgers about the fat fries and skinny
fries 100% I agree with you yeah I don't like that they're doing that like if it's
like I don't like when a place does too many things I concur I suspect it might
have something to do with like more you know like app delivery it's like okay
there's something else we can do with our kitchen right but I just like I don't
it seems unnecessary for me it seems like ungepochka um can we talk about the
the sides for a little bit can we talk about the fries no okay let's move on
to our final thought yes of course we talk about the sides and you know what I
said out there I'll say it again I think those fat fries for a fast food chain
they do they do some great steak fries some of those bigger thick cut steak
fries you were dead on the the the skinny fries which is normally what I
prefer are good there but I think the fat fries proportionally are just like
they're great it's a better bite and I really like it but I like that they have
both options they have the shoestring and they get the steak fries but I usually
opt for the fatter of the skinny and we had sweet potato and we had the sweet
potato fries that's right those are crinkle cuts and we also had the onion
rings I thought they were all pretty good I had no issue with any of them I
hear my chair creaking I'm like if I fell through a chair I just be very
embarrassed this hunk you know it's like there's all hunks that work here
because you know the discussion would be like the like oh you see the chairs
broken sushi has a fucking dough boys oh yeah it's like I didn't want to I
didn't want to speculate but of course the dough it was the dough boys which is
probably their thing for it's like it's fucking stinks and that's fucking
dough boys fucking rappers all over the place where the gross is
podcasted advertisers are dropping off the network it's fucking dough
I love the sides were great that's are good they're really fucking good here
I like them and the onion rings are good yeah potato fries like I mean like the
skinny fries I wouldn't get I would go fat fries a whole day over there but I'm
I'm a fat fry guy solid ranch Andrew what's your dip in sauce of choice when
you got out I needed I needed to be I need the burger fries whatever it is to
be drenched in sauce wow and we took all the catch yeah we stole all the
catch up nearly is there any catch up left and there were seven packets and
there was some more ketchup in the in the the office fridge but but I mean is
that your is ketchup you go to what do you dip in no I usually like a more like
cream sauce okay I used to work at a restaurant and I'm just gonna piss you
off yeah but I worked at a restaurant and I would eat like all the butter and
mayo wait just straight butter and mayo I wanted to so bad but because it was
disgusting to do that I would just use like bread and fries but just like with
like you know just scooping it in a way that's like wow oh like using it almost
as you use the you use the fries for butter for a minute man okay yeah and
then the bread for the butter and just like literally scooping the entire and
just like almost eating straight up butter wow that you know it's funny that
shanked it I won't get into it too much but shanked in you know shanked in no
shanked in he did something to me one time when he was drunk uh-huh let's say
like maybe split my head open let's just let's just say something around there
well that area okay uh that's really bad I was really mad I was really mad at
him and I was like you're an asshole and then like we were at dinner and he was
I was like if you eat that whole thing of butter like I'll be okay with you but
then he loves to eat butter he is a guy who just will take a little thing of
butter a pad of butter and he'll fucking eat it that's good yeah it's not it
really it's not it wasn't really you know it wasn't a punishment I wasn't a

the we got the Neapolitan trio yeah you got a chocolate Andrea you got a
strawberry and I went with the vanilla I'm a big vanilla ad we get vanilla is
a flavor and you know they have some vegan shakes their vegan shakes are
literally twice the price of their dairy ones which is kind of like I I've seen
premiums before but I've never seen the one that bad wow why I went with a
regular vanilla I don't know I guess just probably whatever their product is
it's a cashew based ice cream that they use but I did must just be more
expensive but I know it's a very solid vanilla shake got the job done I love
the chocolate shake was really sought I tried some of your vanilla was good how
was your strawberry was good I always love strawberry as a flavor and yeah it's
great choice I when I saw it I was like I'm a little jealous of that case you

welcome back to dough boys so Andrea it is time to get to our final thoughts on
fat burger you are a guest here's how this will work we'll each go around we'll
give a closing argument if you will a final argue a final remarks about this
particular chain or final thoughts and then end it by giving a score from zero
to five forks your our guests will begin with you so your thoughts your fork
score that's so much pressure to go first but okay I you want to pass out of
five no I'll do it okay I'm up for the challenge out of five out of five four
and you can do half works okay I would do three point seven five wow three
forks three times which means it is out of the golden wow this is so no I'm
changing something like the snake pit has been bounced in the golden plate
just because I've eaten so many burgers in my life and I've been wowed again like
so many times and for a first time for for something I've never eaten before I
wanted to be more wowed I think that I think that I think that it deserves
another visit from you because again we got it in studio it's hard to it's hard
to judge yeah the best version of it and from from the way we do it but I'll
say this I love that burger yeah I kind of I kind of see it as the underdog in
the in the LA burger scene it's like sure you know you got in and out and then
and then fat burgers like you know it's a little underdog burger place and ice
cube sings about we we love ice cube we love ice cube and and I I thought it was
cool before I got out here and then when I went there I like it it's so
different from in and out that's like another thing too is like oh it's just
like big fat burger they don't like they're not mess around you're gonna
have like a big sloppy fat burger yeah and I it fits it fits the name I like
the fries a lot I like those fat fries I think that they do the best fast food
thick fries steak fries of anyone because they cook them they really they
really fried the shit out of them and and I think the burgers are great
why I think I think the original fat burger if you get it in store and do
the works that's what I would do I love it and the shakes are you know they have
homemade milkshakes yes I think it's as much of an LA institution as in an
out burger I know that it doesn't get that credit a lot of the time okay now I
feel bad nobody that's okay you know you shouldn't feel bad you shouldn't feel
bad I'm I'm I went five forks last time I think that I'm closer to I'd say I'm
four and a quarter forks wow four forks one time this was a really solid outing
from fat burger for me I will say having had this place yeah go I'm sorry can I
say one thing yeah I love that like the thing with fat burgers like like I said
like the ingredients mix together great yes but also like there was like a nice
toasted bun you know what I mean like sure it feels like every component of
it is thought about and they do a good job with that and also I get like look
burgers are it's it's it's it's tricky but there's a lot of burger places
especially in LA you can get a burger anywhere and a lot of them are really
really good and so fat you know it's it's it's it's a tough road with fat
burger and I in 3.75 is a good score too it's it's a great score I okay I will
say I feel like it's not fair because I did get a wheat bun I feel like my score
should reflect that wow I mean can I kind of agree with you in a way yeah
because it's like I made that choice yeah and my bun wasn't toasted because of
it because they were like oh we bone we're not that's you can't toast so we
found we all know yeah it's impossible and so they were like no it's not gonna
get your fucking wheat you get your fucking yeah we bond yeah you bitch
there's a no in there we're not toasting it and no but I feel like okay can I
yeah like 3.99 I'm gonna say I love it either 3.99 or 4.00 0 well 4.0 puts it
in the golden yeah here's the thing there's a threshold that must be cross
we're going to play club can it be in between so you're saying like 3.9
repeating 3.0 yeah like if you can do 3.9 repeating forever 9
infinity so 3.9 and then like you can round up some people like to round up you
know but technically wax and I will not allow outside the golden play club just
to clarify this is a thing you didn't know about the stakes for you are not
you don't need to worry about it I'm so pissed okay she senses all of our juice
fan yeah you can't have any juice you gave me you want to absorb juice I want
it okay okay four point zero zero zero zero zero zero one wow barely over four
forks wow wow there that's my final pushing pushing the button final answer
you mentioned Vinod earlier and now he's gonna have to put a very annoying not
annoying I'm very like he's gonna have to remember how many zeros you have yeah
I wonder how this is going to be documented I also wonder if this like
back and forth will be part of the Wikipedia yeah yeah do it right I'm
gonna remember okay if it's wrong I will report it to the police so I also I
grew the bitch this is an LA institution you know that the person he's gonna go
we don't know what he's gonna do still he may be he might he might go for the
woman who founded fat burger lovey antsy is like she seems like kind of an
interesting figure and you know kind of a trailblazer you know it's a it's it's
certainly like a big a big part of the city's identity I do feel like it's
overexpanded a little bit you start to see all the different countries it's
been in I think they've probably like a lot of these franchises like just
chased these fees that they get from franchising companies and when it was a
little bit more when a few or a little bit fewer locations I think that the
quality was just a little bit more consistent but I still think it's a damn
good burger and I'll also say I'm so exhausted by eggs on burgers but if I
go into a fat burger that's the one place where yeah give me one of them
them griddled eggs on the on that bad boy it usually works out great I don't
know I mean I think this is four and a half forks I think this is like I think
this is what this chain deserves I don't I like I have other burgers I like it
better but I think this place and what it's what it stands for and what it
represents it absolutely is belongs in the Golden Play Club where it shall
remain welcome to the Golden Play Club fat burger I'm sorry I actually I love
you don't have to be sorry we're sorry you remind me I left some eggs out in
the sun today does that matter what wait like in a carton raw no they were
there they were in a carton they they're yeah they're they're they're just like
eggs they were in my fridge uh-huh but I took them out and then like I put them
on basically to where the window is why did you do that I don't know air it out
what was the next step can you leave eggs I made eggs for myself yeah that's
great but then I left the other eggs so you just forgot to put them back yeah I
think it's okay French people do that yeah fine can you leave can you leave
eggs in the sun you can leave butter out you should I should I should I bring
this yeah oh if I go home to a house full of chicks you have to raise them
to full maturity and then so when I wake up it's like I'm gonna be waking up I
like they're gonna be like cockadoodle doing some of them well the male one oh
my god roosters I still have 20 chickens did you really had 20 chickens on a
farm you lived on a farm yeah during the pandemic yeah and then we had 20
chickens I raised chicks too so that might be your life soon explain what
happened I was on a farm and then my grandma always wanted chickens and so
she just like badgered us into getting chickens and then we got 20 chicks we
got 20 chicks and then we raised them was this in like rural British Columbia or
was it yeah it was okay exactly rural British Columbia and on a blueberry farm
wow so you just do you want to do you think that I could like happen to meet
them at some point did you become friends with them I mean that's a weird
question did you become friends with them I liked them but the roosters are
very mean roosters are very mean and they're very protective of the hens but
then like they and they get jealous of people feeding the hens and they kick
the shit out of my grandpa like the rooster oh yeah my grandpa show me his
bruises like I was like stop feeding like I'll do it we're talking like fight
club deal like he's like your grandpa's getting like the shit kicked out of
no it's really like bruises are like like a foot long Jesus Christ yeah he's
like 90 that's insane I know no he's crazy and then and then and then we
killed the roosters sorry and we kill the roosters because they're kicking
this shit out of my grandpa and we show it to the other roosters are like don't
kick the shit out of my grandpa yeah I lived a rich life it's wild so this was
just like a okay everything's locked down I have this farm I can go to I'm gonna
go live here for a little bit no my mom is a schemer like she's one of those
people that is like always gamer yeah has some hustle she's always got some
hustle and then she like I was I thought you were saying something else cuz I
was like she couldn't be calling her mom just a schemer you are just calling
a scheme scheme okay she's like you know if you had I don't know if you guys had
like uncles that are like yeah you know I'm selling I'm reselling like cards or
whatever like like have some scheme going on that's my mom though and then
like and then so she like took out a loan and bought a farm that she couldn't
afford and then we all had to like help her on the farm we did 20 chickens and
we did the blueberry farm all the blueberries died because none of us know
how to farm and then we sold the farm at the end of it because we couldn't keep
it up that's this was like a real life attempted like a stardew Valley except
it just like oh wait I have I have actually learned how to do this and
I was like yeah no literally my mom was like oh we just have to you know get a
tractor and do all the blueberry stuff and I was like we're women like like as
much as like you know women can do it whatever but it's like but it's like no
we can't we can't operate a tractor we can't we gotta give some fucking guy do
it but none of a you know her husband left her my dad
nobody can operate a tractor and so we we're like alright we're just gonna let
the blueberries die and then we sold the farm at the end of it what the hell is
going on up there and that's our adventure you know I know no my mom is
crazy what happened to the chickens there were 20 we kept four of our
favorites four of them lived to watch all of their siblings died and you know
and they're laying eggs and as soon as they're stumbling eggs they know what's
coming from from staying up to like for the morning eating three burgers every
night and sleeping till four to then going and working on a farm it's this
timeline yeah no literally you know the comedian the all the shows the comedy
show stopped and my mom picked up the phone and was like hey you want to come
work on a commercial farm and I was like no and she's like but you don't have
shows yeah you just come do it now and I was like I can't argue and so I went
against my will to like the rural BC and then I yeah working on a farm for like a
couple years wow against my will that's such a funny mom got you he's like you
don't have shows you got to come up and work on the farm yeah that's insane yeah
and also I don't know how to do this none of us knew and I was like are you
gonna hire people she's like no I have you I'm like well who do you think I am
did she did she expect to like sell stuff from the farm or yes you wanted to
sell blueberries and then like her all of the everything the blueberries all
died but that's what you wanted to sell yeah they all died well she thought it
just goes does itself but it's like they're our pets like like you know the
right yeah yeah don't take care of it you don't spray it and you don't do
anything to it then it like eats itself basically and all of that what's
happening and we're and my mom's like what do we do and I was like why are you
looking at me I don't know anything you know so there's like it's just so
elaborate as a scheme I'm gonna learn how to be a farmer I'm gonna manage a
farm cuz she heard of someone doing it one time right like show she's someone
that will buy into like just folklore wow that's kind of it's kind of how we
started this podcast yeah you know what the fuck we're doing we still don't it's
chill it's the difference is we just we did we hired the people that yeah we we
hired the people who know what they're doing that's which is good
instead of calling your daughter who's a standup that sweeps in before I wasn't
gonna do anything magical like yeah but anyway we ran it to the ground and now
I'm here that made me laugh I'm sorry I hope it wasn't unfortunate no no we it
was good because we sold it and real estate is as we know all know is like
crazy and so because of the pandemic we sold it at a higher price even though
all the blueberries are dead so I don't understand what happened but we sold it
at more than what we bought it for it was your mom yeah that's a thing like your
scheme was validated I mean in a what yeah but we're all mad that it worked out
for her because it's like she didn't learn right like now she's like oh I put
my family through hell it was good like we killed all these blueberries but it
worked out we made money yeah and it's like what no it's like she should be
swapped on the wrist for this yeah but it says she was rewarded with money yeah
it's kind of like me with Mitch damn it how'd that work out and to answer your
original question eggs can be stored at room temperature in refrigeration or at
subzero temperatures so you're fine believing them a room temp if eggs are
left on the fun on this in the sun that will shorten their shelf life because
fatty acids can turn rancid prematurely but I think probably if you use them you
know it quick in the near future you're probably okay I tossed an egg I think
you can but there was like a little bit of red in one of my eggs oh that's okay
this one red is just like it was part of the anger yeah that's fine I tossed it
you can cook that up it looks kind of weird so I also like it was more than it
was like it looks like a scab on the yoke cool I've seen that yeah is this
from the farm yeah I'll eat it you know did you eat like fresh eggs on the
farm bite the head off of the chicken
this is like a sideshow farm wait you said the eggs yeah I ate the eggs did you
really oh my god so good so fresh you know so we had chickens blueberries was
there anything else on the farm or any other animals chicken blueberries we had
dogs we had dogs we had dog one dog for the for the farm yeah and then my mom
wanted to get a goat for like milk yeah and a cow and I'm like again you're
just being a child yeah like who we don't know how to keep this alive I'm gonna
have to slit the throat of this you're pushing me to kill so many animals
