Starting point is 00:00:00 All right, I'm sitting in a hire car in a car park in Adelaide, and next to me in the passenger seat is Tim. Hey, here we are. Here we are. Now, Tim, I know a TV show you like, and quite a popular TV show, is Comedians in a Car Getting Coffee, and my idea for a podcast is called podcasters in a car getting kfc it's actually comedians in cars getting coffee oh wow yeah yeah whatever same thing so so mine is called podcasters in a car getting kfc and we are going we we are the podcasters
Starting point is 00:00:42 oh nice so you can guess what's coming next we're getting in a car we are the podcasters. Oh, nice. I like that. So you can guess what's coming next. We're getting in a car? We are in the car already. We're in the car. We are, yeah. Nice. And now next comes the KFC. But to keep things interesting, Tim, like, I was asking Tim,
Starting point is 00:00:57 where do we go for KFC? And Tim then basically launched into a spiel of all the KFCs around suburban Adelaide and where the good ones were and where the bad ones were. I was like a curator taking someone through my art gallery. A sommelier of chicken. That's right. What would you like to drink with the chicken? I worked backwards from there.
Starting point is 00:01:20 Yeah. So we have decided to go to three KFCs in suburban adelaide tim is going to take me on the tour one that he thinks is pretty good one that he has had an indif a famous indifferent experience with and one that he thinks is just not up to scratch no that's right and we're gonna we're gonna sample the chicken at each one and compare and contrast and kind of review them for you, the civilians back at home. And I'm not going to tell Brady which is which. Okay. So we'll go in a random order.
Starting point is 00:01:51 Okay. And after we've eaten, I'll say, what do you think? And he'll give a score, perhaps out of 10. Out of 10? Out of 10. Of course. And then I will reveal which of the three this is. All right.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Are we ready? We're ready. Let's roll. Let me get the car started. All right. And keeping with the show, we should talk a little bit about the car we're in, which is... Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:02:17 It's a higher car. It's a Subaru Outback, and it's white. It's white, yep. Yeah. Leather seats in interior. Oh no, material seats. They're not leather, they're cloth seats. We don't know enough about cars to make any more comments. Did I mention that it was white? It's white, yes, yes. Black on the inside. It's got roof rails, like if you wanted to attach things to the roof. It's got a steering
Starting point is 00:02:41 wheel, that's on your side. That's here in front of me, yep. It's got a stereo. It's got a steering wheel that's on your side. That's here in front of me. Yeah. It's got a stereo. It's done 29,042 kilometres. Ooh. That will obviously increase throughout the day. It will. It will. Not significantly because we're in Adelaide, but it will increase. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:59 It's like a station wagon. You don't see many station wagons anymore, do you? Like a wagon. These are quite common cars in Australia, though, the Subaru Outbacks. But, yeah, you're right. In England, we would call this an estate, I believe. But, yeah, a station wagon is what you would call it here in Australia. Right, right.
Starting point is 00:03:15 I think I'm out. Yeah. We've exhausted our car knowledge. We may. This is going to be more about the KFC than the cars. That's more in our area of expertise. That's right. All right. So, I is going to be more about the KFC than the cars. That's more in our area of expertise. That's right. All right, so.
Starting point is 00:03:28 Let's go. I'm going to put my belt on. Hang on. Tim's already buckled up. Oh, yeah. Safety first. Like that foley work there? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:39 All right, Tim, I'm going to stop my recorder for a minute because I'm driving. But you can narrate, Tim. You can talk us out of the car park and start giving me directions. Okay. Well, put the car in reverse. That's it, with your foot on the... Actually, I'm not a driving instructor here, am I? No.
Starting point is 00:03:54 No. I'll concentrate on the driving. I do remember the days where we were getting our licenses and seeing driving instructors and coming back from various classes with information on what we'd learned. And you famously came back. I said, where were you before recess break? And you said, failing my driving test. But you did it again and got your test. Hang on. You put it. It took me three goes to pass my driving test. How many did you take, Tim?
Starting point is 00:04:24 Well, I benefited from a new system that was introduced at the exact same time, which is called the logbook system, where in the driving instruction classes, once you had shown your competence, the driving instructor ticked it off, signed off on it. There were 26 of these. And so you did enough classes. You just simply worked your way through and you didn't have to do a test.
Starting point is 00:04:47 Which I think is scandalous. Well, no. I remember saying to Tim the day that he got his license on the logbook that, well, at least I'm going to be able to tell my kids that I passed a driving test. And then Tim replied to me, well, I'm going to tell my kids that too. well I'm going to tell my kids that too I did actually do the test once and failed and I felt so betrayed because it was an immediate
Starting point is 00:05:12 fail because of me pulling out in front of another car but I thought that was a joke I had one of them where I didn't think there was another car that pulled out like a phantom car this is a very clean car park we're driving around and around and around in Brady it's not for instance I can't see Michael Jackson filming his bad video clip in this one. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:30 This is not sufficiently, you know, scuffed and New York and graffitied. It's very clinically clean. It hasn't got that distinctive smell of urine that most car parks have. No. No, it's yet to be really... Worn in. Worn in. Yeah. parks have no no it's it's yet to be really worn in worn in yeah and it's the concrete is white too which doesn't remain white for very long in a real car park where am i going here where's the
Starting point is 00:05:52 way down there it is down i'm driving very carefully because i don't want to scratch the higher car although i have got the super cover so that no matter what i do to the car i don't have to pay anything so i could bang it and it wouldn't matter but still do to the car, I don't have to pay anything. So I could bang it and it wouldn't matter, but still. Do you get suckered into the high insurance on high cars? Yeah, I get the super cover. Because otherwise, I know it's expensive, I know it's a rip-off, but I just spend the whole time, I'll spend the whole next three weeks stressed about every scratch on the car otherwise.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Yeah. And I'm willing to buy peace of mind. Most of the time when I'm hiring a car,'s for work and so I always have that ethical dilemma of would work rather put its faith in my driving abilities or pay more for insurance and I invariably pay more for insurance all right hang on I'm gonna lean over now and get out of the car park come on there we go this is gonna be difficult with you holding a microphone and driving and holding a piece of chicken when the time comes okay yeah hang on let me i'm gonna turn my microphone off again and let you interact all right the first kfc we're going to is glen osmond
Starting point is 00:06:56 glen osmond i think it's called glen osmond that's just what i call it because it's near glen osmond road they should have distinctive signs at the front, shouldn't they? Like, welcome to KFC and then, you know, like Trump Las Vegas and... ..and Trump Reno. They really should give them a distinctive sign, but they don't. Tim can only tell which one he's at from the taste of the chicken. Indeed, yes.
Starting point is 00:07:23 So we're coming up to the famous victoria square in the center of adelaide where do you want me to go now straight on or right uh go straight on okay we're passing by a block down from the advertiser where you worked for a good decade many years ago i mean we're literally in the heart of adelaide like you cannot be any more in the middle of adelaide than we are right now, and it still feels like I'm in a small country town with the cars. Like, it's lovely. It's so lovely driving in Adelaide.
Starting point is 00:07:51 Careful for those cows. Watch out. Bloody sheep. Get off the road. Dopey. Kangaroos is what people want to hear. That's right. Adelaide is the easiest place to drive in the world.
Starting point is 00:08:06 There's a person. There's some people. There's actually two KFC outlets for every three people in South Australia. I think we'll take this all the way down to Hutt Street. Okay. Are you hungry? Yes. So is that a good condition to be in when
Starting point is 00:08:27 eating kfc does it will that like affect your judgment it really doesn't matter however you always look forward to it a little bit more just a little bit more tempting yeah when you're hungry yeah it is a little bit frustrating doing this in that we're hungry now and we're going to just have a piece of chicken from each of them when really we're so we're essentially spreading a three-piece feed across many hours probably an hour yeah yeah when normally you'd be spreading that over about 90 seconds so yeah the reason i got the extra insurance on this hire car is because I knew Tim would be eating KFC in it. I had to pay an extra premium for that.
Starting point is 00:09:16 Does the insurance cover the cleaning, does it? I mean, there's no rule that you have to have one piece at each place. If you think you've got it in you, you could have a couple at each one. I think it's keeping in the spirit of it being a tasting. It's a bit like saying there's no rule in a wine competition that you can't just have a bottle of each sample. But, of course, it may not be fair on some of the later brands. We haven't told KFC that we're doing this as well. So it's a completely blind experiment. We didn't want them to
Starting point is 00:09:47 get in their top chefs into each restaurant and kind of manipulate the system. That's right. Their gun chicken cook shipped over from Kentucky itself. Secret customer. I may be recognised. Tim's actually got A whole like Latex mask And fake nose And everything on
Starting point is 00:10:08 So that they don't know It's him Moustache A moustache Eating KFC Now that is a challenge Oh yeah Yeah
Starting point is 00:10:17 We're now passing A gym that my wife Says that I should join Quite appropriately On the way to KFC The irony The irony Am the irony. Am I going right here?
Starting point is 00:10:26 Yeah, go right. Okay. All right, Tim, where are we now? Oh, wow. Oh, that was quick. I can see it. Oh, no, this is very handy. The location is fantastic for this KFC.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Dangerously handy. And particularly because it's on this road that heads up to the freeway and out of town. So it's often the last stop and certainly the last KFC you'll see for quite a distance. Right. If you're driving, say, to Melbourne or somewhere. Right. How do I get in? Up there after the lights?
Starting point is 00:10:55 Is there a little turn in on the left? Yeah, so head up after the lights and turn left in. One thing I've always appreciated about this particular KFC is the lovely green hedge. I think they've done a lovely job with the hedge, and it looks like a really lovely place to go. Inviting. Inviting. Particularly with the hills in behind it, the trees. And it has what every good KFC outlet should have, in my opinion,
Starting point is 00:11:16 and that is a giant oversized bucket on the sign. That's right, yeah. That's like advanced KFC. Totally. Yeah. Even though it's not a large KFC, by comparison, it's got the huge bucket. And I think that's a real attribute. Wouldn't you love one of them in your house?
Starting point is 00:11:32 Your house could handle one of them, like floating above the lounge. Wouldn't that look amazing? Like suspended from the ceiling. Oh, yeah. With your high ceilings there. I don't know how we'd get it into the house, but you'd have to build it in the house. You'd take it apart, probably. I don't know. Yeah. I wonder if they're screwed together i guess they are aren't they they'd
Starting point is 00:11:49 arrive in pieces and just check that out that would be amazing i will check that out do you think the rest of your family would be up for that it would be great because you could see it probably from the windows outside oh yeah people might think you actually are a kfc outlet and start knocking on the door asking for chicken. Oh, that's no good. No, we don't give chicken. We receive chicken. All right, here we go.
Starting point is 00:12:10 We're close now. Brady's heading over the intersection. Smooth. Indicating. Moving. As if I need to indicate when you're driving past a KFC. That's right. What else could you do? You need to indicate When you're driving past a KFC That's right What else could you do?
Starting point is 00:12:26 You need to indicate if you're not Alright Looks busy Now we're going to go drive through Or Drive through Walk in Drive through
Starting point is 00:12:35 Alright Because we're in cars It's Oh yeah yeah It's podcast is in a car Is that this way here For the drive through Yep
Starting point is 00:12:41 Around the side here Oh yeah See the nice hedge It's lovely Isn't it Lovely Bit of a What do you call that? Topiary or something, when you have
Starting point is 00:12:47 that kind of, um, you trim trees to shapes like that. They should trim those bushes and trees to, like, drumsticks and wings and stuff like that. They should, yeah. Or buckets. They're just square. So, we're now in the queue. A lot of cars in front of us.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Three cars we can see in front of us presumably one more that we can't see around the bend and what are we ordering a two-piece feed or like what are we getting here i think we need to get a piece each yeah and um so we can get them separately so two separate one pieces and oh look now look at those boys in there they're loving it in there eating their kfc waving In there, eating their KFC. Waving to us. We're waving. Fellas, hang on, fellas.
Starting point is 00:13:29 The next generation of KFC. The next generation of KFC. There's four guys in there. Thumbs up, fellas. Thumbs up, boys. Oh, and school holidays. There's five of them. They're having a... I mean, they just think we're weird
Starting point is 00:13:38 because we've got these huge microphones in our faces. Well, that's right. Look at that guy's got drumstick. It's hairy. You don't want that much hair on your kfc piece for those who like every possible detail the drive-through clearance is 2.7 meters yep so if you are coming this is glenn osmond kfc isn't it if you're coming to glenn osmond kfc don't come with a vehicle that's more than 2.7 oh
Starting point is 00:14:05 hang on we got the van is backing back you can't do that no he's reversing to get a better angle to the drive-through oh yeah oh that's easy he's a beginner oh so we're ordering from a person not from like a robot thing that's right there'll be a person yeah you very rarely have a robot thing at kfc it's often a glass door it's the human touch yeah yeah yeah yeah they go the extra mile yeah uh oh we're gonna need money aren't we hang on oh hello yes yeah that's all right i've got my wallet yeah i've got cash so i'm gonna put the microphone in my lap uh but you hold yours around as well just so we catch a bit of the water i'm interested to see the angle that brady comes in on yeah it's hard so what am i ordering like am i am i ordering is there is a one piece feed or just two pieces of chicken or
Starting point is 00:14:51 i think we try and order two lots of one piece of chicken please and then it'll be interesting to see which piece they give us i wonder what they give when you order one piece of chicken i reckon you can do it so no no chips or drinks just like two single pieces of chicken I think I think once you say well did you want two pieces of chicken well that's right but we say but there's two of us so we want them in separate meals and we'll get a little little box each and they'll have one piece of chicken I'll try try all right funny how the person isn't here when you come up and then they rush up but they weren't expecting someone so you can just order a one piece oh yeah there you go
Starting point is 00:15:28 three three dollars for a single piece of chicken that's amazing value really isn't it it seems really expensive to me do i i'll go up to the next one oh hang on is he calling us up to the next one which window i don't know where to go yep no, no, I think he's waiting for us. Oh, we're going straight to the collection window. Oh, look, this is chaos. Can we get two single pieces of chicken? One for each of us? Two one pieces? Yeah, two single pieces.

Yep. the car in front has both winnie the pooh and tigger in their window here we go we're next it's time it's time to receive a bounty now remember just just receive it and we'll go and park the car and eat it yeah yeah can you see any parking spaces the car park's rammed it's full on as you'd expect i'm so hungry i was gonna ask how your anticipation levels are you what we can act we can watch them dishing it out i can see that i can see they're being put into the box looks like we're getting one we're

Yes. We're literally- Under the shadow of the bucket. We are literally- In the shadow, wow. The car park seems to be full of people.
Starting point is 00:17:32 They get out of their car and look a bit sheepish and head in like, like their partner doesn't know they're here. Yeah, well. It's like, during the day, just at work, slip out on a Friday. Okay, I have literally parked in the shadow of the bucket. I'll take a picture for people.
Starting point is 00:17:51 We have got one box with two pieces of chicken in it. How are we going to do this? We're going to have to lean over. We're going to use one hand. We needed some napkins too. We're holding... Have they not given us napkins in the bucket? Let's open the bucket and have a look.
Starting point is 00:18:03 Unboxing. Unboxing. Let's take a picture hang on all right we've got i think it's a thigh and a drumstick a thigh and a drumstick we reckon give us a smile you don't look happy enough i want to get more of that bucket in there we go the shadow of the bucket all right what do you want do you want me to go and get some napkins um yeah maybe we need some napkins
Starting point is 00:18:29 I can't believe they didn't give us napkins Tim's going to go in and get napkins I'm going to go in and get napkins okay should I go in
Starting point is 00:18:34 with the mic you can go in with the mic alright alright folks I'm going in Tim's going in I'm going to stay here
Starting point is 00:18:41 in the car so we can keep true to the podcasters in a car format he's going in people he's going to stay here in the car so we can keep true to the podcasters in a car format. He's going in, people. He's left me alone with the chicken. Alright, I'm getting out of the car. It's a bit windy, so... Oh, it smells good. Heading back in.
Starting point is 00:18:58 It's always good to go for a bit of a run before you eat some KFC. Take a picture of the bucket. Kylie Minogue's playing. That's a good sign. I've come inside. Now there's two people waiting. Poor start to have not given us napkins. Just looking to get some napkins if I can.
Starting point is 00:19:24 I don't think there's any. They don't dispense them around the building like you do at McDonald's. So I think I'm going to have to ask. Hey, I'm just looking for some, we just got some dry throw. I just need some napkins and wet towels, if that's okay.
Starting point is 00:19:36 Oh, that's nice. We're going to get an oversupply here. Lovely work. Beautiful. Thank you very much. Come to think of it, how do I know Tim's not buying himself another piece while he's in there? Okay, got him running go go go hitting back to the
Starting point is 00:19:50 bucket there's brady i wonder if he started or if he's oh no he's waiting good man good man here's tim coming back got him got him got him i actually started to wonder how do i know tim's not buying himself another piece while he's in there? It was strange to go into a KFC and not buy chicken. But yet, come for me to know there were pieces waiting for you in the car. Oh, that's right. Yeah, that's right. All right, here we go.
Starting point is 00:20:16 We're in. All right, so I got some of those wet hand towels. Typical with a fast food place, whenever you ask, can I have a few extra of these condiments, straws or napkins or something, they give you like half the box, don't they? They just can't go, here's one. They give you, here's a clump. So I've got a clump. All right, Tim.
Starting point is 00:20:38 Which piece do you want, the thigh or the drumstick? What would you, if it was, if you don't think about manners, don't double guess anything, just what, if it was just you, what would you manners don't double guess anything just what if it was just you what would you want i would start with the drumstick yeah and then move on to the thigh but if you could only have one which is the case today unfortunately for you which would you want like like like if you were getting one piece what would you hope the gods delivered you if it was one piece it's the thigh it's not this one though it's the other thigh but i would have the what the bigger one well you have you have that one then because i want the drumstick do you really yeah because why do you like the drumstick because i like the
Starting point is 00:21:13 skin to meat ratio i like the skin ratio on the drumstick that's a good point yeah yeah i'm going to be stuck with all that meat whereas i'm just going to have my skin again so you have the thigh all right all right got you give us a napkin give us a napkin all right whereas I'm just going to have my skin again. So you have the thigh. All right. All right. Got you. Give us a napkin. Give us a napkin. All right. All right.
Starting point is 00:21:31 Let's be honest. We need all these napkins, don't we? We need to create like one of those like kill rooms that when you walk in and there's plastic everywhere and you're about to get murdered, we need to do that in the car. Before we eat the cake. Just like a COVID tester or something like that. Look that skin i've got oh that's great yeah no well done yep a little bit oily
Starting point is 00:21:53 i'm going a little bit oily i'm going it's very oily i'm going in here we go here we go oh yeah oh that's great Oh yeah. Oh that's great. Oh I'm liking this Tim. Well mine's falling out of my ham. The chicken's juicy. Slash oily. What are you doing there sucking the meat off the bone?
Starting point is 00:22:20 I feel like I'm watching a wildlife documentary watching Tim eat this stuff. I've got so much oil. So much oil. Lucky I got that insurance. It's overwhelming. These jeans are going to be stained. Oh yeah. You can see how when I said two one pieces and they instead gave us two pieces in a box,
Starting point is 00:22:49 you kind of get ripped off a bit if it's two of you because you do have this dilemma of one person having a big piece. They should have given us, when I said I want two one-pieces, they should have given us two big thighs. Yeah, that's right. We'll have to be clearer. Can we have two pieces that are the same? In separate boxes. In separate boxes so that we, yeah. I'm happy though. I wonder if you can sue KFC for dry cleaning. You know, like a... I'm done.
Starting point is 00:23:16 I'm done. Tim's still going. Yeah, no, well mine's got more to it. Alright. Let's clean things up. Got a little bit of kfc crumbs on your thigh there man nice on your thigh not the chicken thigh a bit of thigh on your thigh nice um here do you want one of these um yep the little fresh towels fresh towels yeah lovely okay just to freshen up. Like it never happened. Removing all evidence that wives may see or smell with your KFC towelette.
Starting point is 00:23:52 Wipe my face, wipe my fingers. Tim's got a bit of extra wiping to do on his trousers. That's right. If you've ever seen one of those documentaries where like a cheater brings down a gazelle, that's what it was like watching Timmy. Look at this, my phone is wet. It was underneath the napkin. Oh, dear.
Starting point is 00:24:14 Oh, man. All right. Okay. All right, now, look, so do you want to know... Should we mark it and then you tell me where... That's a good idea. Tell me, what did you think of that then? I don't eat KFC that much.
Starting point is 00:24:27 And that's the first time I've had a piece of KFC just pure chicken. Probably for like a year or two. I go to KFC, maybe sometimes I have a burger or one of their newfangled things. But just for a pure piece of chicken on the bone, it's been a long time. It was as good as I remember. It was a bit oily. And I don't know if that's part of the deal yet because I haven't been to the other places. Skin was good. Chicken was very moist. I'm going to give that a 8 out of 10, but that's so I've got wiggle room in case the other ones are better. Yep. 8 out of 10. Yeah, wise.
Starting point is 00:25:01 Okay. What are you giving that? I'm giving this one a seven. This is the best piece I've had from this place because this is the location of my indifferent KFC experiences. Right. So this is the one, because of the location and the hedge and everything, it seems perfect. And yet it was underwhelming on two occasions, if people remember. Right. But this was better. That was better than the underwhelming pieces you had. That's right.
Starting point is 00:25:29 They've redeemed themselves a little bit today. Maybe they heard the episode. Maybe they did. Or they got my letter at head office and words come through. Or there was a leak you were coming today. Oh, I'd hope not. So, okay. An eight and a seven.
Starting point is 00:25:44 Where are we going next from Glen Osmond? From here, we're going to go over to Mitcham. Right. Mitcham. The Mitcham KFC. What road is that on? That is on Belair Road. Yep.
Starting point is 00:25:56 Which turns out, you know, it starts off as Unley Road out of the city. So we're going to head over around. We're making our way across the southern part of the inner suburbs of Adelaide. All right. And we'll go there and then we'll go around to the third place after that. All right. The best thing about this was we literally are being shadowed by a huge bucket. It's keeping us out of the sun.
Starting point is 00:26:18 It's lovely, isn't it? Yeah. It's a nice touch. All right. Let's go. Let's go to Mitcham KFC and see if they can do any better than Glen Osmond. Okay, so we've come down Greenhill Road. I looked it up and actually that Glen Osmond KFC is, strictly speaking, in Eastwood,
Starting point is 00:26:37 which is a very tiny little suburb there. But it's on the corner of, the diagonal corner of Greenhill Road and Glen Osmond Road. So I think I'm pretty fair in my description but we've turned left now up Unley Road this is a road I use probably more than any other in the city up and back to my church how did that sate your hunger like what are your hunger levels like now Tim stronger than ever right that's the problem you have a little foretaste of something and you look forward to the main meal more than ever so but it's not quite like that is it's a bit more like a multiple like a greek meal you know with multiple dishes of just little bits of the same thing over and over again
Starting point is 00:27:17 oh yeah yeah that's right yeah we're passing mr bookcases who made the bookcases in our last home did a very good job. What other small details? Mother's Milk, they make great coffee. No free adverts here, Tim. Oh, sorry, yes. Just a quick shout-out to Storyblocks. Yes, we're not passing Storyblocks,
Starting point is 00:27:41 because you can get Storyblocks any time on the internet. This is a good time, Tim, maybe to mention Storyblocks as our advertiser because they are sponsoring this episode. Do you want to do the honours? Storyblocks. Yes, absolutely. Storyblocks is a fantastic site where you can get audio and photos and video. Almost, it feels like a limitless supply.
Starting point is 00:28:03 Like they have a library that is um unparalleled and rather than scraping around in fact even this week i was uh having something done with a graphic designer it's like oh have you got an image of this or not without the rights and i said go to storyblocks go to storyblocks that's where they'll have it and um sure enough they did so that's where they'll have it and um sure enough they did so storyblocks is a fantastic place to get video footage if you're making a clip photos if you're graphic designing or using just for yourself purpose for business or anything and uh audio as well remember and i'm doing this without notes now it's storyblocks slash unmade no Storyblocks.com slash unmade. Okay.
Starting point is 00:28:48 Yeah. Okay, fair enough. I'm going to take your word for it. I'm not going to. Tim, that's not bad effort. Well done. Storyblocks.com slash unmade. Get in there.
Starting point is 00:28:58 Royalty free, limitless. Well, not limitless, but very extensive library of all that stuff. That's not bad. I think Storyblocks may even approve that, Tim. I think, well, if you're telling the truth and you literally believe in the product, it's really easy. So we're plastering an apartment block that's half built. We actually thought about buying an apartment in here.
Starting point is 00:29:22 There's a massive crane, but it was going to take too long to finish and the apartments were a little bit too small in the end. So we didn't buy it. So this story really doesn't go anywhere. Nah. I've just turned my microphone on because Tim's just dying now, telling us about every single shop we drive past. He clearly needs some more KFC in quickly. Shop there, bed, bath and table. I was reconciling the accounts the other day and saw an invoice there. I now realise how excruciating it must be for my wife when I drive her around Adelaide and point at every single little place.
Starting point is 00:30:03 That's the place where I once had a milkshake. There's Holy Vinyl. I bought Sting's album on vinyl there a few weeks ago. The Dream of Blue Turtles. Wow. Yeah. I know. So this next KFC we're coming to, how often do you come to this one?
Starting point is 00:30:20 Well, this is just near where I used to live. So it's probably fair to say, and because I live at that location longer than anywhere else around Adelaide since I was a kid, it really was, yeah. Your home KFC. Now that you live in the city centre of Adelaide, do you come out to this KFC still or have you kind of turned your back on it? No, I've turned my back on it. I've transitioned. I was hoping the Glen Osmond one would be, that's where our church is down there. I was hoping the Glen Osmond would be uh the new one but it's not but thankfully there's
Starting point is 00:30:50 that brand new one right around the corner from uh the where you were doing your isolation hotel where i took the folks the other day when they came and did the um the brady balcony wave so your home kfc now is is not one of the three we're going to today? No, it's not. And in fact, it doesn't have a drive-through. It's a hole-in-the-wall CBD location. Okay. But within walking distance of my home, which is good. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:13 Well, or bad, depending on how you look at that. Well, that's right. Now, we are coming up past a pretty important location on the left. It's a car yard where you bought Barryry the marina my first ever car i bought from that that lot just there which is now a mercedes dealership yeah they've gone a further up market i've gone up market yeah my first car yeah mercedes vans which i convinced the girls actually they sold mercedes pens and we were going to in and get a pen if it was a stationary shop. Are we straight ahead at these lights, man?
Starting point is 00:31:47 Straight ahead. Straight ahead. Yep. So this is where Unley Road becomes Bel Air Road. Do you think this drive today will become like the Camino Trail, like that people will follow and it'll be like a spiritual quest? It could be. It could be like a famous tour.
Starting point is 00:32:02 Because I feel like I'm on a pilgrimage. Yeah. Yeah. Do you feel like I'm on a pilgrimage. Yeah. Yeah. Do you feel like you are? Yeah, it does feel, it feels nice. I'd like to think in future maybe people, like people who are real zealots would walk it. Yes. So they could fully take it in.
Starting point is 00:32:16 Like that would be the true way to do it. But that would take like a long time. You would have more than one piece at each place if you walked it. Yeah. That would be allowed. Yeah. So we're going up here a few more hundred meters and then you'll see the bucket appear on the horizon. Oh we've got another bucket adorned outlet do we? You do. Yeah. So you want to move over into the right lane. This one will turn up on the right. Oh it's a bit annoying to
Starting point is 00:32:43 get into to be honest. Okay. That's the downside this kfc and it's crammed up against a couple of other fast food restaurants who i won't mention no and it doesn't have a nice head you mentioned every other shop on unlearthalair road i don't know why you're not mentioning those ones it's conveniently over the road up here um diagonally from the city of mam, the council where I served as a councillor for six years. Yeah, I don't think we've ever talked about that, that you sat on the local council for many years. Yeah. So what, would you sometimes go there after a hard night of governing and have a couple of pieces? Sadly, the meetings always went so late that every night I'd come out, you know, exhausted from a meeting, dying for some late night KFC.
Starting point is 00:33:27 And it was shut. Oh. Always. So it's sometimes. As a councillor, could you not have required them to have stayed open later or, you know, put something in their permissions or something? Thankfully, the council provided party pies. Oh, party pies are good. I know.
Starting point is 00:33:45 They were fantastic. They changed the party pies once, and I brought it up with the CEO. I said, look, this is not acceptable. Then I went to the mayor. You resigned. Do you agree? He resigned in protest. That's how Tim's council career came to an end.
Starting point is 00:34:00 Sometimes you wonder if you achieve anything in politics, but I was glad I brought us back onto the original party pies. Did the CEO bring the old party pies back, did he? Yep. Turn right here. I know you can't see it quite yet, but this is the way to go. You've got to come in around the back. I believe you. I can see one of those rival
Starting point is 00:34:18 fast food outlets that shan't be named. No. Okay, we're turning in now. I still haven't laid eyes on the... Oh, there's be named. No. Okay, we're turning in now. I still haven't laid eyes on the... Oh, there's the curl. Yes. Yes. All right.
Starting point is 00:34:28 So this is annoying because you've got to get past these other cars that are lining up to drive through into these rival places. I can probably get through that gap, I think. Ooh. You don't think I can get through there? Maybe if you hadn't had that other last piece, you might be able to get through. Is he turning into... Yeah, he'll be going in there. Last piece you might want to get.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Is he turning into... Yeah, he'll be going in there. So if you want to go straight ahead, you might scratch his car, but you won't be taking his place in line, and that's the most important. We're through. We squeeze through the narrowest of gaps. Holden Precision Driving Teamwork. Yes, yes. And here we go into another drive-through.
Starting point is 00:34:58 And there's no one... Empty. Empty. Wow. We're going in all alone here. Fantastic. Oh, and here we're ordering from a robot looks like yes no this one does have the uh the microphone hi how can i help hi could we please
Starting point is 00:35:13 order two two single pieces but in separate boxes for the two of us so you wanted two pieces original chicken but both in separate boxes yeah so two one pieces rather than one two piece. Yeah. Brady's not stuffing up the audio this time. Okay. Thank you very much. I want a sun-kissed too. I'm a bit. Yeah could we also have a sun-kissed drink please? A can or bottle? A can or bottle? A bottle so I can do it up. A bottle please. Normally I'd get a can but I'm going to drink it in parts so thank you very much if that's all there's a little bit of in her voice of you know she must have seen tim 10 oh just blew past the 10 oh hang on i've got a coin here man thank you it's funny to see someone using cash thanks a lot is it cash that a novelty?
Starting point is 00:36:06 Is that why you're using it because you're having a bit of a flashback here? I haven't used cash for years. I had some with me so. Oh, it's gonna be difficult to know where to park here. Yeah, can we do we have to go back out onto the road? Yeah, you have to go you can't. Thanks so much. Thank you. Do we wait here or? That's a huge bag. There are two big boxes. Two boxes.
Starting point is 00:36:31 Nice. Lovely. Thanks very much. Where should I park? So we have to go out the drive here. Back out onto Bel Air Road. Onto Bel Air Road and turn left. I tell you what, if you want to have in there, there's an amazing Portuguese tart place.
Starting point is 00:36:44 Actually, let's go in there. We'll do that. Can I go across there or do I have to turn left? No, to have in there, there's an amazing Portuguese tart place. Actually, let's go in there. We'll do that. Can I go across there or do I have to turn left? No, go left. Oh, it's raining. I've got to shut the window. It started raining on me. It's all chaos.
Starting point is 00:36:55 All right. I'm dying to know what pieces they gave us. Oh, yeah. I know. I'm not opening it until we can do it together. Where are we? Where should I go? So go down here and these lights turn right.
Starting point is 00:37:04 I'm going to take you on a little Yeah, but don't like show me stuff from your past. No, no, no. This is just to buy a Portuguese tart. Okay. It's a place to park and we can get a Portuguese tart. Portuguese tart? It's all about KFC today. You're going to ruin my palate.
Starting point is 00:37:20 We can save them as a surprise as a present at the end. That can be dessert after we've done the third place. That's so yummy. This is a sun shower, isn't it? Sun shower's always peculiar. We've got a good chance of a rainbow, I would have thought. Imagine that, eating KFC at the end of a rainbow.
Starting point is 00:37:36 Wow. A bucket of chicken at the end of the rainbow. This was my local pub for quite a while, the Torrens Arms. You promised you weren't going to do more boring, this is a place where I once did the thing. OK. Yeah. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:37:51 I know you'll do it again. Don't worry. Only if it's mildly interesting. I'd love to know what your threshold is for interesting. Tim's threshold for interesting is he thought of it I could have gone then Someone should let me go Oh no now this can't
Starting point is 00:38:11 Oh now there's two You've got two lanes against you Yeah I'm sorry You change lanes into this lane Yeah whatever Chill out Gosh I can't reverse
Starting point is 00:38:21 It's going to be road rage If someone lets me go If someone of course kind enough They're all turning into the lane That's making it less Let me tell you a fact Tim I can't reverse. It's going to be road rage. If someone lets me go, if someone that was kind enough... They're all turning into the lane that's making it less... Let me tell you a fact, Tim. Adelaide drivers, and you know this, are the worst drivers in the country. I agree with you wholeheartedly.
Starting point is 00:38:34 They are so selfish. They will not deviate. They will never let anyone in. They are the worst people in the world, Adelaide drivers. This is where the part about us being... Actually, go down a little bit further there, man. Turn in there. There'll be a park there.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Okay. This is where the idea of Adelaide being a small country town is at its disadvantage because people feel like they should be able to drive wherever they want, whenever they want. Adelaide drivers don't last a second in places like England. All right, so turn in here. We're going into the back of Mitcham Square Shopping Centre.
Starting point is 00:39:04 Okay. Ooh, that was a big bump. Oh, it was. and you can just find a park here there's one here over there okay okay oh it's hailing oh gosh there's so much happening why did you bring me into this bloody monstrosity for because we needed somewhere to park yeah but why like a huge big busy car park oh literally well there's nowhere else to park well there's there's parks there, there's parks there. Okay, yeah, it's not as bad as I thought. Park, fair enough. Fair enough. My bad.
Starting point is 00:39:29 You're all pent up from those car incidents, I can tell. No. Here, you need some chicken. I need some chicken. That made me feel better. All right, we've parked. Turn the car off. Let's see, what have we got? All right, now, there's two...
Starting point is 00:39:42 There's two boxes this time. This time they've given us two boxes. To manage the oil. Will they... Oh, we didn't... Hopefully they gave us napkins. Or you kept the old ones. No, there's one napkin here for me.
Starting point is 00:39:53 Oh no, there's one there for you too. Good. You've got a box there. What's in that box? What have you got? Okay, so I'm opening my box. Unboxing. And I have got the same again. And look, I've got... What's that? A wing, is that and I have got the same again.
Starting point is 00:40:06 And look, I've got, what's that? A wing. Oh, yeah, the same too. No, that's a thigh too. So we've both got thighs this time. So asking for two different boxes did have the effect of giving us... Yes, they're not going to give... That's right.
Starting point is 00:40:17 All right. All right, here we go. It's good because it's been a while. It's been a good 10 minutes since we had this. So it's nice to... Mmm. since we had this so it's nice too you know it's better isn't it but it's still a bit oily i feel like i'm comparing apples with oranges though having a drumstick and then a thigh this is um it's crunchy that's what i like about it not bad a lot more chicken for me this time obviously having a thigh yeah what do you think about this this part of the chicken though where it's like
Starting point is 00:40:54 the skin kind of merges with the bone and the chicken and it's kind of is that still part i eat or not like oh yeah yeah you can. You can see skin, you eat it. How thorough are you with leaving little bits of meat and stuff? Well, not very. I mean, you know, when you're having one piece, I mean, if you're only having one piece. Like, I remember going for lunch once with my parents to lunch at another family's house, and there were quite a few guests there, and I was like, oh, KFC, you know, they've got a couple of buckets,
Starting point is 00:41:23 and it was a big group sort of thing. I got given one drumstick, and that's it. I little kid so like oh one piece but i you know what i mean like i just every last little drop you know of that thing on a plate it sounds like you were scarred by it oh yeah i don't like to talk about it actually i spilled a bit of oil that time i'm afraid afraid to say. Oh, nice. Yeah. Okay. You've got black jeans, though, which is... No, but I spilled it on my little vest here. A little gilet. You've got a Coke there. You don't want to...
Starting point is 00:41:52 Yeah, I'll have a little drink as well. Hang on. Where's my napkin gone? Did you take my napkin? Uh-uh. Oh, no. Here it is. Is it?
Starting point is 00:42:00 All right. Rating time. Yeah, so what did you think that... It wasn't that much better than the last one. And again, I have to take into account I had a thigh that time, which had more chicken in it. Same. Eight. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:13 I'm going to give this an eight too. That's a pretty reliable eight. I have to say the previous one, which I was indifferent to, you know, it got a better than, it was doing better than it normally would. It was doing better than it normally would. This is just sort of a pretty standard, maybe slightly under the usual standard, because this is my regular. This is the one that you think does the best stuff. Yeah, that I found in Adelaide. Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 00:42:36 What did they drop points on today? I agree with you that it was a little bit oily, but the taste wasn't there. I'll tell you what's funny, though. It's always different eating KFC in the middle of the day to the end of the day. I think it always tastes a bit better at the end of the day. That may be just, you know, it's the end of the day, so you're ready for it. Psychological. But I think in the middle of the day, it's still good. And I think this was a good standard.
Starting point is 00:42:57 I mean, 8 out of 10. You'd probably take that every time, wouldn't you? I mean, this is, you know, this is great food. Great food. KFC in the car. Mitchum Shopping Centre car park. Two money two dudes just scoffing it down, spilling oil all over their clothes.
Starting point is 00:43:18 It doesn't get any better than that. No, it doesn't. That's an 8 out of 10, but it's not a 9. It's certainly not a ten. Well, is ten even possible? Who knows? Now we're going to go and buy one of these Portuguese tarts from the shopping centre. Yeah, they're yummy.
Starting point is 00:43:32 But we're not going to eat that. We're going to save that for afters. Later on. That's right. Yeah. And then where are we going? Then we're going to, it's on Henley Beach Road. So we're actually going around to the western suburbs.
Starting point is 00:43:44 Quite a drive. Yep. it's on Henley Beach Road so we're actually going around to the western suburbs. Quite a drive. Yep, yep, yep. We'll cruise around to the western side and across the city to I guess it's Brooklyn Park. I think that's what it's called there on Henley Beach Road. I'll look that up and confirm it and we'll see what you think at that one. Now
Starting point is 00:44:00 this is one where by process of elimination I guess you can already tell. We've been to the indifferent one. We've been to the great one. This one is a rogue KFC. So I thought we would finish there because we're probably going to eat more than one piece there. Depending on how we're feeling.
Starting point is 00:44:18 And this is one where you think they've got a bad track record. So this is risky. That's right. I literally avoid it. And if I'm really desperate, I might just get a burger risky. That's right. I literally avoid it. And if I'm really desperate, I might just get a burger or something like that. But I certainly don't.
Starting point is 00:44:33 I wish you'd seen how serious Tim's face was then as he said that. He was talking about... He was so serious. If I'm really desperate, I'll get a burger. But like, and he was oozing sincerity. And like a little hint of warning. Well, this is like with Storyblocks. If you are sincere, it's very easy to sound sincere.
Starting point is 00:44:53 So we'll go over there and we'll try. And we'll see how, I mean, we'll see what you think. I mean, and maybe they've lifted their game. I mean, who knows? But time will tell. Time will tell. All right. Let's go in.
Starting point is 00:45:06 We're getting closer to, do we figure out what this KFC is? Is it Brooklyn Park? What its official designation is? Let's have a look here. You've just given them your own names, basically. Block this one out of my memory. Let's not prejudge. Let's not prejudge.
Starting point is 00:45:19 They could have changed their ways. The other two KFCs could have called ahead and said, we think Brady and Tim are on the move. They've been warned. ways. The other two KFCs could have called ahead and said, we think Brady and Tim are on the move. They've been warned. So the official address of this one is 251 Henley Beach Road, Torrensville actually it's called. Torrensville. Yes. Brooklyn Park is right next to it where my college is where I work and this one's right there, but it's Torrensville. All right. It's the very end of Marion Road, actually. Oh, right.
Starting point is 00:45:47 I know. Okay, yeah. I know where we're going. I know the one. I have been to that one. Do you have any memories of... I have no specific memories, no. Do you have any notes that you could look up?
Starting point is 00:45:57 No, my files were destroyed in there. Wise. Very wise. How does your mum feel about KFC? She loves it. Oh, yeah. No, she's a big fan feel about KFC? She loves it. Oh, yeah. No, she's a big fan. Early convert, being married to dad.
Starting point is 00:46:09 Your dad was the instigator, was he? Oh, yeah. Yeah. And so it was very much Mother's Day, Father's Day, special occasions, birthday, sort of the go-to meal. They were very down on Macca's, my parents. Macca's wasn't really on the scene. I think they saw that as something for kids. This is McDonald's, by the way.
Starting point is 00:46:25 Oh, yes. I have, like, you say Macca's with such ease that confuses the Americans. And I thought, oh, you know, is that just Tim being informal? But I saw a bunch of McDonald's ads on TV the other day. And they call it Macca's in Australia in the ads now. They don't even call it McDonald's. Go to Macca's and buy this. So it's just
Starting point is 00:46:45 totally taken hold is what you call mcdonald's yeah it's our name for it which yeah that makes sense it wouldn't be like that around the world but australians have this habit of shorting everyone's name from steven to steve-o and so your dad like just fell in love with kfc for some reason yeah when he arrived from holland i don't know if I've mentioned he's from the Netherlands, and when he arrived in the 50s, he, yeah, for some reason I think came around then and he fell in love with it. He really loved it and nurtured me in it and nurtured mum. I'm forever grateful, really.
Starting point is 00:47:18 Yeah, it's a legacy. It'd be nice to have a little piece of chicken for afternoon tea when you get home from school, wouldn't it? I mean, imagine that. I don't think it would be very good for you. No, well, no, that goes without saying. We should at this point, like, issue a health warning, though. The Unmade Podcast does not advocate eating KFC three times in a single day for general purpose.
Starting point is 00:47:42 That's all right. We are warning you that we're having one piece at each stage. In the normal circumstances, people, you should not have more than one KFC a day. No, no, no, no, that's right. One a day is fine. Recommended in some places. It is such bad, unhealthy food, people. Do not eat KFC.
Starting point is 00:48:08 It is, in Sesame Street language, a sometimes food. Not an all the time food. I'm not familiar with that term. Obviously. It's a lesson the Cookie Monster was taught at one stage. Okay. Yeah. Oh yeah, because I guess he's quite a bad role model these days.
Starting point is 00:48:29 That's Beaumont Tiles where we bought the tiles for our bed uh kitchen when we did it up right thanks for pointing that out yeah i used to have a girlfriend that lived up this way so i used to always drive past this kfc on the way to her place oh right yeah she lived way out that way didn't yeah i wouldn't get like kfc on the to the girlfriend's place. That would probably be a bad look Oh, we're turning up with oil all over your jeans KFC on your breath Unless the father's like my father He's a fine young man turn up with a with a bucket for a mum yeah a keeper that one he's a fine young man turn up with a with a bucket for her mum yeah to impress her forget a bunch of flowers three drumsticks bring something useful that's right oh plane Qantas plane flying over us as we because we're near the airport when you were young how exciting
Starting point is 00:49:17 was it when a plane flew over like low over your car oh yeah very exciting it's still a little bit exciting all right so we're coming up henley beach road we did a little bit of a detour to get away for some traffic the back roads tim's local knowledge oh yes yeah i know these roads like the back of my hand so we're coming up now henley beach road which normally if you keep going you'd hit the beach yes and hence the name hence the name yeah that's right oh that's right henley beach road yes very good it's on the left up here on the corner so if you miss it and we have to go around the corner so i don't want to be forever no do i turn before it or no no into it into it
Starting point is 00:49:56 okay i'm with you i'm with you here we go here we go nice and easy this one this one here i see you that's the exit you missed it you missed it i Go in the exit. I'm going in the exit. I'm going in the exit. I missed it. I'm going in the exit. But we're in. We're in. But we're in.
Starting point is 00:50:12 All right. No police around. I don't think the police are going to do you for going in the wrong exit of the KFC. I don't think they have jurisdiction over KFC. I think it's like diplomatic immunity. Absolutely. Certainly it's understandable on compassionate grounds. So there's our big box like one. We've got a big sign with a big bucket high up in the air that's the highest
Starting point is 00:50:29 bucket in the air we've had sort of a bucket on a sign isn't it yeah they've gone innovative uh drive-through clearance of 2.6 meters this time right i was keeping i didn't look at the last one sorry oh now we've got to order into this speaker. Are we ready? What do you... Oh, I've never seen that speaker before. Here we go. Hi there. What do we want? One moment, sorry. Okay, yeah, we'll wait.
Starting point is 00:50:50 Well, the same again, don't we want two separate boxes? Two singles, okay. I'm a bit worried about this one. If we get a big thigh and that's all. What? Yeah. Then we'll go to another one. Casey, what do you think?
Starting point is 00:51:04 Can we please have two single pieces, but in separate boxes for us no worries i can like is it still in the same order it's the same order yeah same order but two single pieces just one just yeah one in each box no worries is that all for today so we want yes yes that's all for now thank you thank you all right nicely done she's that's all for now, thank you. Okay, wait, just drive down, mate. Thank you. Nicely done. She's on the ball, isn't she? She's good. She was good. She was polite. No arguments. Oh, where's my card? Or a card? What can we pay

Yeah. worked yeah no no receipt please thank you oh we drive down okay this one again we're going around the corner so where you pay yeah is do you think there's a security reason for that tim that the paying area is so far from that
Starting point is 00:51:58 the chicken no doubt no doubt i can't think, but you can't even see the chicken. Yeah, they want to make sure the money's changed hands before you even see the chicken. That's right. Alright, we've got a pretty posh BMW in front of us. All types here at KFC, but with P plates. Hello. We're ordering KFC from all the different KFCs in Adelaide and seeing which one we like the best. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:52:23 So, it's too late now, You've given it to us now. Alright. Thank you. Thanks a lot, guys. See you later. Those two guys are talking into radios or something. They knew someone was up. Should we try and get in the shadow of the bucket again?
Starting point is 00:52:39 Yes. Alright. Here we go. Ease it around. There we go. That's the guy that drove in the wrong entrance. All right. We're done. Okay.
Starting point is 00:52:51 Got it. Now, we're parked under the sign at the corner of Marion Road and Henley Beach Road. All right. This is exciting. All right. Now, this is interesting. Yes. They've not given us boxes.
Starting point is 00:53:06 They've given us little paper bags inside. Chicken in a bag. I don't know what I think about that. No. Well, I do know what I think about it. I think it's outrageous. It is, yeah. Already this place.
Starting point is 00:53:17 Let's take a picture for the civilians. Hang on. Show them the bag. Hang on. Let me get the camera out. Do you want me to pull them out? Yeah, pull one out. I'll take a picture.
Starting point is 00:53:29 Show people what the bag looks like. So there's the bags of chicken. Okay, let's have a look inside. We've got one napkin there to fight over. Oh, no. We've got spare napkins from the numerous boxes behind us too, though. That's good. Okay, this one looks like we've got the thigh again.
Starting point is 00:53:44 Thigh. And one, and... Oh, look, and it's a drumstick we're back a thigh and a drumstick i still think that's dodgy that they do that like i but but you know i'm not i'm not personally bothered by it but i think it's not fair if you're sharing chicken they should give you the same thing it's like it's like we went into mcdonald's and said we want two burgers one each and they gave you a triple quarter pounder and the other person a cheeseburger yeah and you'd be like wait a second yeah inequality i love the analogy you did there like you took it from one type of fast food to another and that just helped me join the dots i wanted to help you understand by relating it to
Starting point is 00:54:23 something you understand so i took it out of kfc yeah well by relating it to something you understand. So I took it out of KFC world. Yeah, and took it to my language. Which is mysterious and dark and complex. Yeah. And into Macca's. Yeah. Which is clear. All right.
Starting point is 00:54:32 Understandable. All right. Relatable. Well, I'm happy to go the drumstick again. Oh, no, I want the drumstick this time. You want the drumstick. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:37 Okay. Yeah. Drumstick for you. Here we go. Fair enough. Oh, thigh for me. All right. Let's do this.
Starting point is 00:54:43 See, oh, it's too hot. It's hot, is it? It's hot, yes. do this. See, oh, it's too hot. It's hot, is it? It's hot, yes. It's too hot. Well, it's straight out of the fryer. Oh, no, this is my, yep. They've got form. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:56 Look, mine's not even properly covering the chicken. Less crispy than previous ones. Yeah. It doesn't taste too bad oh yeah yeah it's not too bad very oily yeah looks like the Exxon Valdez over there at the moment I mean it's always gonna taste good yeah oh well that's right hmm I don't like that it came in a bag you know what I'm still hungry.
Starting point is 00:55:48 Should we go back to Mitcham? Because we don't like it here. We leave this KFC because we don't like it and drive across town to another KFC. Back where we were an hour ago. All right.
Starting point is 00:56:04 Well, there you go. What did we decide the suburb was? What are we calling this one? It's called Torrensville. All right. Well, there you go. Come on. What did we decide the suburb was? What are we calling this one? It's called Torrensville. Torrensville. Corner of Marion Road and Henley Beach Road. What's the verdict?
Starting point is 00:56:15 What are we calling it here? Well, come on. You've gone first each time. I'd like to hear from you out of 10. I don't think I was influenced by your talk. I think that was the worst of the three. I'll give it a six and a half. Best staff of the three.
Starting point is 00:56:30 Friendliest staff. That's true. But we're not rating the staff. We're just rating the chicken. And the chicken was a six and a half. So the staff, lovely people, can't cook. That's... Obviously, yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:44 They're too busy being friendly and they're not focusing on one job well they say chicken you see that the worst the best chefs in the world have the worst personalities you find a lovely person bad cook yeah well look i'd have to say i'd have i agree this is i'd have to say two things here one One is definitely the worst of the three, right? And that confirms my verdict over many, many years of this being a rogue KFC. However, this was probably better than I expected. Well, you've had it worse than that. Oh, yes. Yes, I've had it very...
Starting point is 00:57:15 I've had it that I haven't finished it. I've walked out. I've gone, no, I'm not having this. Outraged. I have. Yes, I have. Thrown your drumstick down in outrage. I've gone, I'll just eat the chips and that'll have to do.
Starting point is 00:57:24 This is not good. And, and often because it's too hot and because it's too oily and the elements of that, you could tell from today's chicken that that's, um, yeah, you know,
Starting point is 00:57:36 certainly possible here, but this was maybe because it's a drumstick. Um, it was better than I thought. So look, I'm going to give it a, I'm going to give it a six. Okay.
Starting point is 00:57:43 Yeah. Okay. Well, that's it, people. That is the inaugural episode of podcasters in a car getting KFC. How many KFCs are there in Adelaide? How many more episodes of this could we potentially do? When I was looking before on the map for the name and so forth, there's at least a dozen or more dozen maybe 15 and that's just
Starting point is 00:58:05 in adelaide we could go to cities all around the world and do this that's right that's right yeah we could in fact we are my heart physically just complained yeah so there you go yeah so look i hope that's helpful to people. I mean, you want to be useful. And I think that's useful. I think it's a resource as Tim puts the bag onto the back seat to join the growing pile of KFC boxes. Lucky we got the wagon. We've got those Portuguese tarts. Oh, yeah. Oh, the Portuguese tarts. Should we eat them and give them a raise? Yes,arts. Oh, yeah. All the Portuguese tarts.
Starting point is 00:58:47 Shall we eat them and give them a ratio? Yes, yes, yes, yes. All right. All right. I'll have a backseat then. Underneath all those KFC bags. Under all these wrappers. Oh, there they are. Let's have a Portuguese tart, then.
Starting point is 00:58:57 Actually, that's just what I need, something sweet after all that KFC. Yep. Yep. Oh, yeah. That is good. That is good. This is good. Here I've got this. You can use that bag as your... How do you rate that alongside some of the chicken you've had today? This is a 10. This is way better. This is quality.
Starting point is 00:59:18 It's really beautiful.
