Yes, 33 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: I'm wearing a huge bikini killed T shirt. But I 34 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: thought I was like flipping it on its head and 35 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: actually like making it a little less expect because I 36 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: feel like you think of a bikini killed T shirt 37 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: and you're thinking of just like such a right girl 38 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: and look a tight and it's cut off and it's 39 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: kind of boat neck, and that's really tight yeah, so 40 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,239 Speaker 1: the unexpected thing is that you're not being fem yes, 41 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,679 Speaker 1: and I'm worried. I don't think anyone expected you to 42 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: walking here in a baby doll too. Are you really? 43 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: Are you really changing the game? Right? I guess I 44 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: should have been taking Mike a Cow's former guests advice 45 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: by wearing one wearing one fem piece, and I thought, 46 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: this is kind of doing that kill. Yeah, it's like girls. Anyway, 47 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 1: I went to be sold out Bikini Kill concert with 48 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: my friend Eva. Were you? I was singing along to 49 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: like half the songs? But I I will admit this 50 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 1: like my generation, as we are at the same age, 51 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: Like I was definitely more of a Latigra fan as 52 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: that was a little more our era, and like rocked 53 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: out to Bikini Kill, But I wouldn't say I was 54 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: knowing all the words to. As you know, my music 55 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 1: knowledge is confined two songs that have been on soundtracks, 56 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: So if it wasn't on a soundtrack, it's hard for 57 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: me to know. I obviously know some Latigra songs as 58 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: they were on the L Word soundtrack, right, I'm a 59 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: little less familiar. Well, speaking of soundtracks, I guess you 60 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: don't want Penn fifteen. But Demi Rep is one of 61 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: their big songs, and that's the right over the old 62 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: Head Arena on that one. Um. That's so funny because 63 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: we were just that Guitar Center yesterday, just perusing the 64 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: amps and guitars. You were in the straight mail section. 65 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: I was in the gay mail section, which is separated 66 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: by stairs set stairs, and we mean guitars Verse, Keyboards, 67 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: Guitars Center, Union Square, Wild plays. Yeah. But everyone there 68 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 1: is very like, dude, you need to learn the chords 69 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: in order to know how to not do the chords exactly. 70 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,839 Speaker 1: Gotten of the stuff. You know, those people still have 71 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: a commitment to craft. I am thank God for it. 72 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,799 Speaker 1: You know who also is a commitment to craft. Sandwich Artists, Yes, 73 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: which brings us to the book we read this week, 74 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: a book that Manny said we'd never do. They said, 75 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: don't do it. It's not the right time. It's too soon, 76 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: and it's too soon. You can't go there. You know, 77 00:04:54,480 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: it's it's almost too relevant, it's too fresh. Stay. We said, honey, 78 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 1: there's no one fresher than Celebrity Book Club. So we 79 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 1: just simply had to dive into all twelve inches of 80 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 1: this book. Oh yeah, And the book in question is 81 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: Jared the Subway Guy Waiting through Loss for Turning Your 82 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 1: Life Around by Jared Vocal with Anthony Bruno. And at 83 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: the top of the book it says, not a dietbook. 84 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 1: Not a dietbook. Not a dietbook. And if you're wondering 85 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: if this was written pre your post arrest for having 86 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: loads and loads of gigs of child porn on his 87 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: big desktop, it was pretty before what we're calling the 88 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 1: grape before. So first of all, start like, let me 89 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: just start off Anthony Bruno. Girl, I've never seen a 90 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: ghostwriter work so hard. No, this was one of the 91 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 1: most ghost written books I've ever seen. Like my man 92 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:05,559 Speaker 1: has bars, Okay, like Anthony was fitting. No, this book 93 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 1: had so much poetry in it. And it was just 94 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: like the way that he drew out these like incredibly 95 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: elaborate sequences, description about a buffets of caste periods of 96 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 1: like having to get weighted at the end ofcnologists, like 97 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: these moments felt like you were there, and chills, absolute chills, 98 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: and like it's he's he took like what is honestly 99 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: one of the most simple, one of the saddest, like 100 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 1: most deeply American stories. I think you could possibly imagine, well, 101 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: like not just obesity, but an obese college student at 102 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: Indianapolis University who loses two hundred and twenty five pounds 103 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: by eating at the subway in his apartment complex right 104 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: in like the student living well. And I'll say this 105 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: biggest like shock to me of this whole thing was 106 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 1: like I thought Jared lost the subway weight at the 107 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 1: age thirty. It happened to it. Yeah, he's twenty two, 108 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: twenty two. He was taking five years to graduate Indianapolis University. Well, 109 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: and the reason why I took him five years to 110 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: graduate is because I mean the way a lot like 111 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 1: he was big. He did not pick classes on what 112 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: he wanted to study. He picked classes on like what 113 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: classrooms were closest to his dorm and like what didn't 114 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: have um dusked. Yeah, we didn't have to squeeze into 115 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: a desk. I mean he was yeah, he was or 116 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: he was over four twenty five. He was four four 117 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: twenty five was the top. Yeah, we topped out. The 118 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: saddest parts is just starting to get huskier and huskier, 119 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: like and didn't want to talk about it. And obviously 120 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: and he keeps saying, you know, and the kids would 121 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: make fun of him, and the more they'd make fun 122 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: of him, the more he'd want to eat more, even 123 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: though that's the reason why they would make fun of him, 124 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: because food was his only friend. Food was the one 125 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: thing where he could friend sallis you know. Food never 126 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: insulted him. No, Food never laughed at him. Who never 127 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: laughed at him. Food was always there when the friends weren't, 128 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: when the other kids at the cafeteria tables ignored him 129 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: and went off and made their own friends. So in 130 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: elementary school, I truly started crying. They had like a 131 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: sign seating as I did in elementary school. You know, 132 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: you just had a table oh for lunch, for lunch. Oh. 133 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: And then when the middle school and then when you 134 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: get to the mid school, they stopped doing a signed set. Yeah. 135 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 1: And he was like, have you ever seen a fact 136 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: kid eat alone at a table? And I same thing 137 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: happened to me in middle school at the beginning. I 138 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: mean I was like I had no one teat was 139 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: due to obesity. Um. And also once I went to 140 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: this baseball camp and that was the only girl at 141 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: the camp. Yeah, and we like shared it with like 142 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 1: Bentley College that like accounting college, and I would just 143 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 1: like get my tray, sit alone a camp, eat my 144 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: hot dog. You mentioned this before the party. It was 145 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: so sad, but it also is kind of like you're 146 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: dream to be this like mid level male accountant. Though 147 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: it was actually kind of a euphoric experience for you. 148 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 1: I want to say, well, should become punk and to 149 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,719 Speaker 1: wear an xlbikinikial t shirt. You have to have these 150 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 1: things happen. Yeah, you can't sit at a table laughing 151 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: with everyone. Oh.

I watched from the front window and waved 264 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: goodbye to them. As their car backed out of the driveway, 265 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 1: I told them to have a good time and not 266 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: to worry. I'd be fine. But inside I was so 267 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 1: getty and excited I could have exploded. My plan was 268 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: to call out for a pizza and have it delivered, 269 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: a large pizza, hot meat Lover's pizza, who was sausage, pepperoni, hamburger, 270 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: and extra cheese. For days, I had been thinking about 271 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: this pizza. It would be all mine. It would be 272 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: like an old friend coming over for a visit. I 273 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: must have been salivating on the window sill. I was 274 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 1: so delirious. I waited ten whole minutes to make sure 275 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 1: my parents were really gone, wouldn't be coming back because 276 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: they'd forgotten something.

We'll be there in twenty five minutes. 278 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: The man on the other end said great, I said, 279 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: and it was great. I remember sitting in the living 280 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: room by the front window, waiting for the delivery truck, thinking, 281 00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: this is the happiest day my life. Met alone with 282 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: a large pizza was my version of paradise. I pulled 283 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: the crumbled up dollar bills i'd save out of my 284 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 1: jeans and smooth them out of my thigh. I didn't 285 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 1: dare go watch TV or playing Nintendo while I waited. 286 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: What if I didn't hear the doorbell and missed my pizza. 287 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: I couldn't imagine what I'd do, so I sat in 288 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: the armchair facing the window and waited. When headlights swept 289 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 1: the front of the house, I leaped out of my seat. 290 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 1: I went to the window. The pizza truck was pulling 291 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: into the driveway. A college kid got out started walking 292 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: to the front door with a thermal pizza case. That 293 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: description like describing that thermal case of the pizza. I 294 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 1: ran to the door and opened it before he had 295 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: a chance to ring the bell. Focal college kid asked 296 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: large meat lovers with extra cheese. I think I managed 297 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: to say yes, but I might have been too intoxicated 298 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 1: by the rooma of the hot pizza to form of 299 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: full sentence.

I mean it 468 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 1: looked perfect, the cheese stretch all the way it was 469 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 1: supposed to in the saucelo grip, but it was inedible. 470 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 1: I know it's a cliche, but in the case, the 471 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 1: box probably tasted better than what was it inside. To 472 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 1: give that voice, Darling, the box is gorgeous. The pizza 473 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: I had for lunch the next day it was a 474 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 1: pitiful imitation of a real pizza. The cheese tasted like 475 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,919 Speaker 1: melted plastic. The sauce was no better than uncooked tomato paste. 476 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: The crust was like soggy cardboard. I seriously wondered if 477 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: this was the company's cruel response. So the box being 478 00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: better than the food cliche. The next male, I end 479 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: up at Turkey dinner. Once again. It smelled pretty good, 480 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 1: but the taste was huge letdown. The meat was dry, 481 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: that mashed potatoes and stuffing were blander than bland. It's 482 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 1: just like, okay, thank you for telling you on this 483 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 1: truth about Stoffers and Lin Cuisine in their bag of bullshit. 484 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, that it's chalky and that like these 485 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,719 Speaker 1: our lives, I feel like I remember, you know, totally 486 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 1: nineties kids stuff low fat was like the big diet thing, 487 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,160 Speaker 1: and I feel like I remember frozen food always seemed 488 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,120 Speaker 1: out laud in my home, and I would like walk 489 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 1: through those aisles and I would like see all these things. 490 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: I was like, actually, these look so good and they 491 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 1: finally try it, except for a few like hot pockets, 492 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 1: which are yeah, I'm delicious.

It's Indiana, but 650 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 1: it's all like cafeterias, dorms, buffet's like empty apart like 651 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 1: his apartment just the description of it sounds like completely empty, 652 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,240 Speaker 1: like he's just sitting on the couch plane GTA alone, 653 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:49,320 Speaker 1: like ordering pizza at night, like there's a straight balls, 654 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 1: like there's no like you know, it's the school gym, 655 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 1: but everything is just like these incredibly like desiccated, sad, 656 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 1: corporate bland landscapes where they're there's like no people, there's 657 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:05,800 Speaker 1: no life, there's no arture.

Well he couldn't, like it just 660 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:16,840 Speaker 1: goes so deep. I think also the reason why, like 661 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 1: he had no interest because like food was the main interest, 662 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 1: which stopped him from building other interests because he was 663 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 1: like I can't even explore any of those interests. He 664 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:34,919 Speaker 1: describes like one date, um, yeah, and it doesn't sound 665 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 1: like horrific whatever.

And I 798 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 1: as I was ordering, I forgot the things that he 799 00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 1: didn't like. I thought it was no tomatoes. Yeah, it's 800 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 1: no tomatoes, no olives, no onions. Okay, I did get 801 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 1: olives and onions. Sorry, well honestly better for me, so okay. 802 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 1: And then for dinner he would have a twelve inch 803 00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 1: veggie Delight and he and a bag of baked Lays 804 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 1: and another diet soda. And when he first takes the 805 00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 1: baked Lays, he's like they were different, but I still 806 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:54,920 Speaker 1: liked him. The smell of the subway, Stephen, that you 807 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:59,959 Speaker 1: have brought here, God, subway, it's almost it's I've really 808 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,239 Speaker 1: going back and forth. They're also right next to my 809 00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:05,920 Speaker 1: college main building was a subway and a cozy and 810 00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:08,480 Speaker 1: I famously hate it subway. I you know, it was like, 811 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,760 Speaker 1: oh you know, it's a fake sandwich. Yeah, but there's 812 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 1: something about the smell that sometimes sometimes it hits like, 813 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 1: so there's so much live in my mouth, I'm watering. 814 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 1: It's a very it's a very salty smell. Um, there's 815 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 1: nothing else like it. Smell the bread, It's like, what 816 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:31,360 Speaker 1: is it? So let's dive into that. I'm going to 817 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:35,239 Speaker 1: dive into the turkey. This is again Jared's um lunch 818 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:39,640 Speaker 1: lunch spicy mustard. Yeah, I put mustard on it, so yeah, 819 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 1: he says, And no mayo oil or cheese ever, vibe 820 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:50,040 Speaker 1: Chuck Bob Truck pretty good, except for this is very 821 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 1: subway half of it. The bread has gotten pretty solid 822 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:54,799 Speaker 1: and wet, but that's because it's been sitting. I do 823 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 1: have to say when my artists made it, I saw him. 824 00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 1: He wasn't being such an artist. He kind of slapped 825 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:03,839 Speaker 1: it on, and then the fold he did was not 826 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:07,839 Speaker 1: really like he He kind of folded it from like 827 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,799 Speaker 1: the midpoint as it like as opposed to just like 828 00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:12,439 Speaker 1: having to be more of like a book that you close. 829 00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 1: He kind of rolled it almost in this way that 830 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:18,320 Speaker 1: I think made it a little less nice. It's almost 831 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:21,719 Speaker 1: giving rap as opposed to like a closed book, which 832 00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:23,520 Speaker 1: is really what a sandwiches. And I think that's why 833 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:26,960 Speaker 1: sandwiches are such an important thing to eat while you're reading, 834 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:30,440 Speaker 1: because sandwiches are about the sandwiches are the book. And 835 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,919 Speaker 1: I think what's good about George Order and um, I've 836 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:36,600 Speaker 1: never really been like such a male person is it 837 00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: is the spicy mustard. I mean, the red onion gives 838 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:41,319 Speaker 1: a lot for me, even though he didn't. I'm gonna 839 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna bite into the veget de light here m 840 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:53,239 Speaker 1: hm arch phenomenal. I've never had a vegge light um, 841 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:58,360 Speaker 1: pop that in your in your little corner holes. This phenomenal. 842 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 1: Let me teach you. Okay, it's very all Basically none 843 00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 1: of the ingredients in some way are amazing, but you 844 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:11,320 Speaker 1: put enough together, like and the proportions are right, it's 845 00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:14,720 Speaker 1: it's going to congeal in this way that really tastes 846 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:21,279 Speaker 1: like normal ass good food. I've got spinach, onions, pickles. Yeah, 847 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:23,759 Speaker 1: it's the onions, and I think, what and then a 848 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,920 Speaker 1: spicy mustard and you're like, yeah, this is giving sandwich. 849 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 1: Why subway? I think, And the weight loss program is 850 00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:33,879 Speaker 1: because of the endless toppings. Yeah, that you can get 851 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 1: with that. Yeah, it feels generous too. Yeah, I think 852 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,240 Speaker 1: that's not more. You're like, so I can get onions 853 00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:42,279 Speaker 1: and peppers and get pickles, chopped tomatoes. That it's very 854 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 1: important visually, I think, because you know, we eat with 855 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 1: our eyes, and especially if you have an overeating issue, 856 00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:52,400 Speaker 1: it's like you've you feel a fullness even just looking 857 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:58,040 Speaker 1: at the sandwich that I think is very satisfying. Wow, honestly, 858 00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:01,760 Speaker 1: And now it's like, you know, I'm thinking about Jared's 859 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:07,399 Speaker 1: extraordinary weight lost journey, his conviction.
