It was somewhere 15 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 2: that I I would have expected. And they said, no, 16 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:11,039 Speaker 2: we have drum, but not catfish. I don't want drum. Yeah, 17 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 2: the drums. One lives at his girlfriend's house. Uh what 18 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 2: what where was that? Hold on? Let me think about this. 19 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 2: The other day it was me and non though, and 20 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 2: I decide I'm going to have Oh, I can't remember anyway. 21 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 2: Did I ever tell you my story about Charles Clark 22 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 2: at brassfreet nineteen. So a lot of restaurants, if you 23 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 2: go in and ask for catfish, which what I grew 24 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 2: up on, they will make comments like ew, I've been 25 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: told by a restaurant owner I will not name when 26 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 2: I said, how come I don't fry catfish? That catfish 27 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 2: is a trash food? Be that as it may. We 28 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 2: can start listen.

I don't know who said 30 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 2: that to me, and I don't know if that person 31 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 2: that was it. I shouldn't say that because whoever it 32 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 2: was probably listening to the show, and I'll be accused 33 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 2: of insulting his wife when that's not what I'm meant 34 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 2: to do. But anyway, I have been told before that 35 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 2: catfish is a trash food, which I think is ridiculous. 36 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 2: Catfish is a delicious food. It's a bottom feeder. Wait 37 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 2: a second, what fish are you eating? And do they 38 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 2: just did they just float on top of the water. 39 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 2: Anything beneath the surface is beneath them? Literally, Ah, bottom feeder? 40 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 2: What does that even mean?

I just don't dig on swine, that's all. 58 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 2: Why not hold on the delivery of John Travolta in 59 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 2: the way he says, are you Jewish? Like half kind 60 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 2: of jack happened at him, but half kind of asking 61 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:07,119 Speaker 2: knowing good and well he's not. Travolta in this role 62 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 2: is so good and it's so different than the way 63 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 2: he's sort of off handles Are you Jewish? Do they 64 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 2: get what's a bacon? 65 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 6: No? 66 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 5: Man, I don't eat four Are you jewish? 67 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 4: Ain't jewish? I just don't dig on swine, that's all. 68 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 3: Why not pigs are filthy animals? I don't eat filthy animals. 69 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, my bacon tastes good. 70 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 4: Poork chops taste good. 71 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 5: Hey, sword rat may taste like punkin pie. 72 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 4: But I never know, because I wouldn't eat the filthiness. 73 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 2: Pigs sleep and group, and that's a filthy animal. 74 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 3: I ain't even nothing. Ain't got sense enough to disregard 75 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 3: its own ccs. 76 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 4: But a dog, dog eats his own feces. 77 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 3: I don't eat dog either, Yeah, but do you consider 78 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 3: a dog to be a filthy animal. 79 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 6: I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy, 80 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 6: but they're definitely dirty. 81 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 3: But dogs got personality. 82 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 5: Personality goes the wrong way. 83 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 7: So by that rationale, if a pig had a better personality, 84 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 7: he ceased to be filthy animal. 85 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 4: Is that true? 86 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 6: Well, we have to be talking about one. 87 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 5: I mean he had to be ten tasmore chiming in 88 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 5: that Arlod Green ankles. You know what I'm saying? 89 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: Good dialogue, good writing is lost in most films. Great 90 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 2: films should have wonderful writing and that's one of the 91 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 2: things that Tarantino does so well. If you haven't seen 92 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 2: the movie Vengeance, it's by bj what's his name, b 93 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 2: B Jay. I can't think his name. I can't think 94 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 2: of his name. Guy's from New York. But it's about Texas. 95 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 2: It's what's set in Texas. The BJ Novak you've seen it. 96 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 2: The dialogue in that there's some scenes. There's some discussions 97 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 2: of water burger that you better not drink anything while 98 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 2: you're watching that movie, or you will spew them out 99 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 2: of your mouth. Like the church it laid layout to 100 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 2: see you. It will blow your mind how good the dialogue, 101 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,280 Speaker 2: and then you will be There's an opening scene of 102 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 2: bj Novak and John Mayer, Uh, two buddies and they 103 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 2: go to party. It's kind of like a wedding crasher 104 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 2: type thing, uh, and they're telling stories about the their 105 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 2: their conquest. Anyway, So back to my story. So we 106 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 2: have this meal and then at the end of it, 107 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 2: they put on this plate these very beautiful hand painted 108 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 2: pieces of art. Well, I know that sometimes I can 109 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 2: ask questions that make people uncomfortable. So I don't know 110 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 2: if you can eat that art because it's honestly too pretty, 111 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 2: but it might be a chocolate. And it was presented 112 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 2: on a tape on a play with on a plate 113 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 2: with some macaroons. So I said, oh man, these are gorgeous, thinking, 114 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 2: you know, trying to trying to flush out what exactly 115 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 2: they were, and I said, wow, these are these are 116 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 2: really pretty. So I pick it up in hopes that 117 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 2: by picking it up, I might you know, if it 118 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 2: crumbles in my hands or when I set it back down, 119 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 2: if there's some color on my finger, then that means 120 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 2: that it was a chocolate. And there's maybe six of 121 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 2: them on the plate, along with about four my karooms, 122 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 2: and you if you saw them, well, I'll explain in 123 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 2: a minute after I decide whether to judge Michael Michael 124 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 2: Varry show. So finally I kind of hemmed and hard 125 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 2: around this thing. I've twisted it over in my hand. 126 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 2: I've held it for a while, and this couple are 127 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 2: very good friends of our. Sheet says, uh, it's the 128 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 2: best chocolates I've ever had, And I hope that my 129 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 2: body language did not reveal Oh, okay, it is a chocolate. Now. 130 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 2: I say that to complement the thing, because it was 131 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 2: truly a work of art. It was something you might 132 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 2: have bought at a museum. I mean it was incredibly 133 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 2: obviously hand painted and just it had it had a 134 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 2: like a gloss over it, like a like a you 135 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 2: know when they'll do classic cars or hot rod cars 136 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 2: and then they put I don't know what it is. 137 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 2: It's like a glaze over it so that it almost 138 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 2: seems like the color is an inch like yeah, like 139 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 2: a lacquer type deal. Anyway, So it was that. So 140 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 2: I bite into it. It looked like a ladybug. It 141 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:58,679 Speaker 2: was half orange, half green, the coloring scheme on the 142 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 2: hump of a ladybug. And I said, wow, what is that? 143 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 2: And she said carrot cake. Not only did it look amazing, 144 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 2: it tasted amazing. No, we didn't then kick poor people. 145 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,959 Speaker 2: I ate more. And it was an awkward situation because 146 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 2: I was the only one eating them. So there are 147 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 2: four of us at the table, and there were six 148 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 2: of them the and so I had my one, and 149 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 2: in my mind I thought, okay, if you have two, 150 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 2: not everybody can have two. But my wife every year 151 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 2: takes a vow, she gives up something every year. It's 152 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 2: an Indian thing, and so this year it's sweets. Oh, 153 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 2: she went ramon one year. She said, for five years, 154 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 2: I'm not eating meat or sweets. I thought, well, what else? 155 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 2: And she doesn't drink, so what else is there? Oh's? 156 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,079 Speaker 2: And she did it for five years? She did it 157 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 2: anyway back to it. So I've already processed that if 158 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 2: I have the second one, not everybody can have two. 159 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 2: So it's already kind of one of those moves. But 160 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 2: I thought, well, none, that's not gonna eat any So 161 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 2: technically there's three of us, so there's two each. And 162 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 2: just so when I took my second one, I was clear. 163 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,599 Speaker 2: I said, sweetheart, are you going to eat any No, 164 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 2: she wouldn't, but to tell them, I'm telegraphing to them 165 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 2: I can have the second one without overstepping the bounds. 166 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 2: And she said, no, you go ahead, all right? So 167 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 2: I hit number two. We started with six. Now there's 168 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 2: four left. I've had two. There's two of them. Well, 169 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 2: how do I convey? Suddenly? And I'd like another one. 170 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 2: So everybody's sitting and we're talking, and I'm like a child, 171 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 2: just focused on those chocolates. And so I waited a 172 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 2: little while and I kind of reached out a little. 173 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 2: Finally I picked one that was different than and I said, 174 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 2: I'm sorry to touch this, but I just have to 175 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 2: see it, and the husband said, oh, have it, okay, 176 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 2: So I waited, awhile, and waited, awhile. We're thirty minutes 177 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 2: into nobody else has eaten one except for me, and 178 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 2: I finally just said, I feel like it's appropriate if 179 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 2: I have a fourth one, And before long there weren't 180 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 2: any left, and I went home. So before I said, 181 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 2: where do you get these? And she says it's called 182 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 2: mostly chocolate, and she gives me the lady's name and 183 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,719 Speaker 2: she does catering, but really it's it's a chocolate thing. 184 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 2: I said, okay, So ramon, let's see how much you know. 185 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 2: If I were to tell you that the maker of 186 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 2: these chocolate is from a place in the world that 187 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:07,199 Speaker 2: if you go to a restaurant, I mean, if you 188 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 2: go to a shop anywhere in America and it's high 189 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,959 Speaker 2: end chocolates, I mean three or four dollars per little 190 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 2: tiny chocolate, where would you guess she's from. There's two 191 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 2: countries they're most likely from. There's a number one that's 192 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 2: the obvious number. So okay, Switzerland, good guests. All right, 193 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 2: I'll give you credit. There's three places they could be from. 194 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 2: Not Belgium, because the Belgians do chocolates, but they don't 195 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 2: do them like this. Let me let me tell you 196 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 2: if a place, if a place sells these, not necessarily 197 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 2: makes although they do make things. It's where they're always from. 198 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 2: And there's a lot of these in Houston. There's probably 199 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:47,439 Speaker 2: ten of them like this in Houston. No, it's where 200 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 2: people are from that will have high end chocolate shops. 201 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 2: They will also h it'll also be a coffee shop 202 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 2: and they'll have like a fresco dyning. People would be 203 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 2: sitting out and smoking cigarette. It's in the middle afternoon, 204 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 2: dressed to the nines in Italian clothing. The women will 205 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 2: be beautiful. They'll all be wearing shades. Uh. Italy is 206 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 2: a good guess. It's it's where you see a lot 207 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 2: of these people vacationing. Not sweets, not Switzerland, not Italy. 208 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 2: Focus on the chocolate. It'll be chocolates. It'll be Uh, 209 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 2: what's the Greek thing? I like baklava? Chuck? Yeah, they do, 210 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 2: Shut your filthy mouth. I'll love them. Everybody loves bahlavah. 211 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:39,079 Speaker 7: See. 212 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 2: Now why do you want We're on a positive train there. 213 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 2: It'll always it'll be chocolates. It might even be some 214 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 2: real high end Italian, some gelato coffees. Germans don't do that. Lebanese. 215 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 2: They're always Lebanese. What are you doing? Everybody would guess Lebanese. 216 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 2: Everybody that knows anything, You don't pay attention to anything. 217 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 2: The number one most likely place they would be from 218 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 2: and they would be is Lebanese, followed by Irani. I'm 219 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 2: telling you, anybody that knows knows. So I looked this 220 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 2: place up. It's called mostly Chocolate.

The woman's name is Rena Kumkagi, and it 224 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 2: says Rena's passion for cooking began when she was just 225 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 2: a child.

As she got older, Rena realized her 229 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 2: passion and natural talent for cooking was more than just 230 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 2: a hobby. When she crafted a pistachio filled chocolate paste. 231 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 2: Let me read that again, a pistachio filled chocolate pastry 232 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 2: to serve over Thanksgiving. Her friends were astounded by the 233 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 2: delicate texture and full flavor of her pastry, and she 234 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 2: was convinced to replicate the pastry for a friend's wedding. 235 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 2: Inspired to sharpen her craft, Rina completely specialty courses completed, sorry, 236 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 2: completed specialty courses with local Houston chef and chocolateear on 237 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 2: A Gomez.

Sports should 274 00:17:55,720 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 2: be a distraction from politics and polio and war and 275 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 2: famine and crime, but instead they've allowed the left to 276 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,959 Speaker 2: infest it and infect it and ruin it.
