1 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:05,600 Speaker 1: What would you talk about on your on your podcast? 2 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: Firms Represents, Show, Gandhi, Scary Brody Garrett, Danielle Nate. You know, 3 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:22,119 Speaker 1: I love you all, but I'm a little disappointed in 4 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,759 Speaker 1: each and every one of us. Why why we let 5 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: the most important day of the year go by without recognition? Yesterday? 6 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:34,839 Speaker 1: Yesterday was National Meatball Day? What in the hell? And 7 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: you know how important meatballs are to us, and we 8 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: let it go. We just flew right by it without 9 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:45,159 Speaker 1: it existing. Can we circle back? Are so fabulous? Well, 10 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 1: I kind of shocked our biggest meat ball in the room, scary, 11 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: didn't you know? A few years back we celebrated in 12 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: a big way by inviting every meatball place in the 13 00:00:55,200 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: Trust State and never again. An amazing day. Our living 14 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 1: room was filled with stations of different places meatballs. I'm 15 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: gonna say, look, I love meatballs, but I was repulsed 16 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: by meatballs that day. They smelled like meat for like 17 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: three weeks. Yes, okay with that, Remember your friend what's 18 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,559 Speaker 1: her name Kim had the best meat ball her big 19 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: inside up. So okay, let's talk about the meatball for 20 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: just a moment. Some argue, well, you know, it's basically 21 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: just a little small round meat loaf. No, it's not. 22 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: There is a difference, but they are sort of the 23 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: same in their construction. M but some are far superior 24 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: to others. Yes, there are some places where if you 25 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: want to make the get the chat meat to make 26 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: your meatballs. Ground ground beef, the ground beef, ground beef. Sorry, um, 27 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: it comes in three different ones in the same packaging. 28 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 1: You get veal, pork, and beef, and you're supposed to 29 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 1: mix them together with an egg and breadcrumbs and then 30 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: throw whatever you want like raisins and nuts like Uncle 31 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: Johnny does. And you either bake them or fry them. 32 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: Right now, how do you do? I fry mine? You 33 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: have to. That's that Grandma did it. I fry mine 34 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: and then I let him finish in the sauce. Yeah, okay, gandhi, 35 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 1: if you made meatballs today, what would you make them 36 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: out of? Oh? Uh? Can I make like a veggie meatball? 37 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: You can? I would probably do that. If you can 38 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: make a veggie burger, you can make a veggie meatball. Yeah, 39 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: and I bet it would be good. It's got meat 40 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: in the name. You can't make a veggie meat boll. 41 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: You gonna make a veggie ball. Don't hold me back, 42 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 1: but you can't put veggie in front of meat for once. 43 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 1: A veggie brody is kind of accurate. Meat. We've been 44 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: talking about this meat ball. The only thing I can 45 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: think is what a weird word for a food that 46 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: we all just stay all the time. A meat ball. 47 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: It basically describes what But if you took that to 48 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: anything else, like a meat sandwich, that sounds weird, right, 49 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: But meat ball we all just accept it. We do, okay, 50 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: we do. You know as a kid, uh, you know, 51 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: I would eat cans and cans of you know, Chef 52 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: Boy or d with meat balls in it or whatever. 53 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: Gettys The thought eating that now, I was like, actually 54 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: I would try it, but you know it's full of salt. Well. 55 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: I always just wonder how do they make the meat 56 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: last on a shelf. There's something about that that makes 57 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,799 Speaker 1: preserve comfortable. It's vacuum pack. I had a can of 58 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: Chef Buddy meat ravioli last week. That's ravioli, meatballs and 59 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: ravioli in the same can. But Franco American used to 60 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: put little hot dogs in the spaghettios. That's a dish, 61 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: So I don't know if you've ever done this being 62 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 1: a cook or anybody the chefs in the room. But 63 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 1: the last time I went to visit my mom, she'll 64 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: always make me one of my favorite meals, and she 65 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: made me spaghetti and meatball. I love it. And I 66 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: get into the house and she's throwing away a tray 67 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: of meatballs, and I said, what are you doing? What happened? 68 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: She goes, they didn't come out right. I don't want 69 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: you to have them. She was throwing away these meatballs 70 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: because they didn't come out right. And I did try one, 71 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: and to her credit, they weren't her usual meatballs. So 72 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: rather than have us eat infuri your meatballs, she just 73 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: went and made another back. You know what, meatballs are 74 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: not too easy. It is a complex, a plex, a 75 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: little dance of the ingredients. I thought about breaking up 76 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: with my boyfriend once because when we were dating, not 77 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: current boyfriend, ex boyfriend. When we were dating, I used 78 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: to cook every single day because I thought he didn't 79 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 1: know how. And then one day he made these meatballs 80 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: that were the best meatballs I had ever tasted, and 81 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: I was like, I should break up with you for 82 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,679 Speaker 1: lying to me all these years about your cooking ability. 83 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: You just let me cook the whole time. But sometimes 84 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: people can cook one dish really well and nothing else. 85 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 1: Maybe that might have been the case. My favorite aunt 86 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: ruined her cooking career and hosting family gatherings forever because 87 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: she messed up meatballs. So she had made meatballs one 88 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: year for whatever holiday it was, and all of us 89 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 1: ran to the garbage pail. We're all spitting them up. 90 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: They were terrible, and so afterwards she confided in us 91 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: or my mom, she said, well, I didn't have enough 92 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: ground meat, and so I had some liver in their virgeration. 93 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: So she stretched the meat you had. So we're like, oh, 94 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: we're going to Aunt liver Ball's house. So from that 95 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,799 Speaker 1: point on we couldn't trust her to make anything because 96 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: she messed up the meatballs, put liver in them. Just 97 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: the worst purpose, the worst balls is Froggy on with us? 98 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: Are you there? No, Froggy is not on with us. 99 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: I see him in the studio that he's ignoring us. 100 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: All right, back to meat balls. I make really good 101 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: meat balls. They're great. I believe you. You make great food. No, 102 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: sometimes they come out really shitty, But my meatballs I 103 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 1: do okay with meat balls but where did you start cooking? Like? 104 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 1: Was it young? Because you've been a good cook as 105 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 1: long as I've known you, But you remember when you 106 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: just started cooking. Because I'm a horrible cook. I became 107 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: a better cook than I used to be when I 108 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: was as an adult. You know, you know, I'll tell 109 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: you what. Watching the Food Network, that's where I learned 110 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 1: how to cook. I am the world. I'm not allowed 111 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: to cook in my house because the one time I 112 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: tried to cook, I was just told to What I 113 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,239 Speaker 1: heard was take the cheese and put it in the pot. 114 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: I didn't That's what I heard. I wouldn't do that 115 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: exactly what Ali. What Ali said was put the pasta 116 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 1: in the pot, not the cheese. So I put a 117 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: thing in the pot and it and the cheese melted 118 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 1: in the pot. Just sense, that's stupid. But I don't 119 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,919 Speaker 1: know that. You know, And that's okay. You don't have 120 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: to be a good cook. You don't have to be. 121 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: If I to make dinner, the response is always no, 122 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: I don't want lasagno chicken cutlets? Can I can I 123 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: tell one of your secrets? My wife? So I went 124 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,559 Speaker 1: over to your place for dinner one night Elvis invited 125 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: me over. Say I'm cooking dinner. So I go there 126 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: and you make I think it was chicken part whatever 127 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: it was. It was something that you normally don't cook. 128 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: And you told me at the end that it was 129 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: your practice meal. Because you were cooking the same thing 130 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: the next night for more important people. You don't remember that. Yeah, 131 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 1: so you're like, at the end of the meal, you're like, hey, 132 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: so how was it. I goes really good, it goes okay, good, 133 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: I got it right. Then I'll do this tomorrow. I 134 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: was like, if you're having a lot of people, know, 135 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: if you're having a lot of people over and you're 136 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 1: making something new, be careful. I would do do a 137 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: test runt. I do the test runs a lot, and 138 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: you get sometimes you get the test runs. What I'm saying, 139 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: meatballs are great, but you have to be able to 140 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 1: make sure they're moist and so this is where this 141 00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 1: is where the disagreements come in. So some people put 142 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 1: bread crumbs in them. Some people like me, I take 143 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 1: bread and soaked the bread in a liquid and then 144 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: put that in there and mix it in and make 145 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: a sludge, and that keeps it a little more moistly. 146 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: Eggs raw eggs in it. No I put no, I 147 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: put eggs in there too. Do you specify liquid? Yeah? 148 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: What liquid? You can? You just said you still get 149 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: a liquid? Well, okay, So ed a good friend of 150 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: mine who's very Italian, his grandmother Italian grandmother. She would 151 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: take like stale loaves of bread soaking in water, and 152 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: then she would wring the water out of the bread 153 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: and then she would mix that in and it keeps 154 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: them moist. I used sometimes, I use I use butter 155 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: milk sometimes because it has a different level of flavor, 156 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: like a little tang. And who don't love tang? Gandhi? 157 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: Everyone loves tang. Preferred to be referred to as a 158 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:51,679 Speaker 1: good cook or should we call you a good chef? 159 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: Is there like I'm not a chef? No, not a chef. 160 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: Chef to me is a business thing and your cook 161 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: is you know, you just throw some in the pan. 162 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: It tastes good and mistakes all the time, by the 163 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: way it happened, not happen. So when my wife Allley 164 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: makes meatballs, she leaves a loaf of bread out for 165 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: a half a day and then she uses that as 166 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: the bread crumbs. After leaving it out, getting a little stale, 167 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: but not fully and then that's how she makes it. 168 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: But her grandmother just passed away last week. So we're 169 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: cleaning out her house. We came across a freezer of 170 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: frozen meatballs that she has made over the last two years. 171 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: We're talking like maybe two hundred three hundred. Still they've 172 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: been deep. Uh they were in the freezer, so yeah, 173 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: they've been frozen after after she made them. So that's 174 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: pushing it. I think, I know, it depends on how 175 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: seal they are. I will tell you this though. Then 176 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: this totally switched switches gears. I have friends who have 177 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: lost parents or grandparents and they will go to the 178 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: freezer and find something they cooked and they will have 179 00:08:55,720 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: a gathering. That's probably the most amazing gathering. Let's let's 180 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: have some of the grandma's meatball. I was just thinking 181 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: that because on an episode of Big Bang Theory, when 182 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,439 Speaker 1: Howard's mother died, they went to the refrigerator and they 183 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: had a ceremony to eat all of his favorite foods 184 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: that she had put in. And I have it on 185 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 1: my DVR from years ago. It's my favorite episode of 186 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: Big Bang Theory. Three to four months is what you're 187 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: reading three or four months for what? Yeah, I think 188 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: you gotta get rid of those meatballs, Carrett. It said 189 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,319 Speaker 1: cooked meatballs can last in the freezer if properly stored 190 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: for about three to four months. Did she put everything's dated? 191 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: You're probably okay. You seem to be fine to me. 192 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 1: How it's been four months it's frozen. Well, I think 193 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: after a while it could change the composition of something 194 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 1: in there. I don't know. For instance, in August, which 195 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 1: is how many months ago, it's six months ago. A 196 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: little more. Chef Peter came to our house and made 197 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 1: these huge vats of sauce. He made the spicy Bolonet sauce. 198 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: He made this other and it's been in my freezer. 199 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: I pulled it out of the freezer and thought it 200 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 1: a little bit because we froze it when it was fresh, 201 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: and uh took off a chunk of the ice and 202 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: put the rest of it back in. Made it SPERVCT. 203 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: Tastes great, it's great. It was great. I don't think 204 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna get poisoned from it. Probably just maybe taste 205 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 1: a little off. Didn't taste off at all. I know 206 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 1: where you can get meat balls to go with that sauce. 207 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: Come on over. It's people who get married and they 208 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: eat the top of their wedding cake a year later. 209 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: By the way, it tastes like crap. You don't eat 210 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,439 Speaker 1: the like freezer burned crap. Yeah, you take a little 211 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: taste and then you go, you're gonna do that with Alex. 212 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: It's just what with Alex. Put him in the freezer, 213 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: eat him later, you know. That's how I met him. 214 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: About a month ago, a month and a half ago, 215 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: I had my birthday party at this place for We're 216 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: doing Super Bowl at the same time, and they wheeled 217 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: out this huge cake. I caught it up into huge quarters, 218 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 1: put it in aluminum foil. It is in my freezer. 219 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 1: What birthday party? Because none of us were super Bowl 220 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 1: super Bowl. Yeah, but anyway, the point is, I don't 221 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: know long I'm gonna leave that cake in there. You know, 222 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: it's my birthday cake. I wasn't able to I wasn't 223 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: able to eat it at the time, but now I'm 224 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: allowed to see. But I'm frightened buy it. I don't know. 225 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: I'm thinking of this podcast. Is this podcast interesting? I 226 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: think absolutely? Who's gonna have meatballs today? I'm gonna make 227 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: up for lost meatball time. And I have some meatballs today. 228 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: I think I may get some. Right now, I'm gonna 229 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: go search for a veggie meatball, just to spite Bertie. 230 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: I know it exists. It doesn't make veggie does make sense? 231 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,199 Speaker 1: Don't ball don't bring back memories. I'll just remember getting 232 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,839 Speaker 1: up on a Saturday morning and my grandmother's kitchen and 233 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 1: you see it frying in the pan, and you see 234 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: it and you hear it sizzling, and then I go in. 235 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:39,719 Speaker 1: I go, Grandma, can I have one yet? And she goes, 236 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: not yet, Danny. And then later on she go, Okay, 237 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 1: I'm almost ready to put it in the sauce, and 238 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: she let me have one right before she put it 239 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: in the sauce. Meat Balls take you back to your childhood. 240 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: There are so many veggie meatballs. I see the veggie ball. 241 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: Anything on the internet doesn't mean it's right. Fake news, 242 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: plastic meat is meat balls? Does it make sense? As 243 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: meat let's meat balls? They're not meat balls. Because Amy's 244 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 1: does a lot of good stuff. I don't trust this Amy. 245 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: What I'm gonna tell you why she makes good pizza 246 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 1: really does everything though she makes pizza she makes American food. 247 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 1: She can't be good at all of it. I'm going 248 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 1: to be good. It's always better to make it yourself. 249 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: But if you don't have time, you vegan cheese. Have 250 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 1: you had vegan cheese? It's good. It's crushed cash shoes 251 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: and almond and things like that can be that can 252 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: be cheese. Cheese is a formation of different things that 253 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: come together to make that glob. Look you know, uh milk, 254 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: I love cash cheese or is it scary? So it's 255 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: so good? I've had some. If I put some cheddar 256 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 1: the vegan cheese in front of you, you you would you 257 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: bring me in something? Because I've always wanted to try it, 258 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 1: because I think I might. I think I might have 259 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: to change. It doesn't melt as easily, does it? No? 260 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: I use it as a dip for I need a 261 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 1: good one. I got one for I want to try. 262 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: There's this place I go to all the time. I'm 263 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 1: telling you Whole Foods. By the way, you know they're 264 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: not a sponsor because he didn't name them. Amy makes 265 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 1: vegan meat balls. This Amy, I'm telling you a lot 266 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: of stuff. By the way, Amy is not a sponsor. 267 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: We just actually happened to like Amy, who is thereby 268 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: was smart up. I'm waiting for them to make broccoli 269 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: out of meat. All this meat taste they made, it's 270 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: just just like broccoli. But it's always the other way around, 271 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: which means meat is better. I just sent a text 272 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 1: alex as we're going back and forth about some home 273 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: projects we're doing, and for some reason, my microphone turned 274 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: on and I just sent him a texas said, broccoli 275 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: out of meat played out and see what he says. 276 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 1: Baby doesn't even cook her food. Amy was the daughter 277 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: of Andy and Rachel Berliner or Berliner, and they named 278 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: the company after her credibility. She had looks like a 279 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: couple of hippies, I know, But Wendy's never cooked the food, 280 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: right Dave Thomas named it after his daughter. That happens 281 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: all the time. She was a little redhead stocking girl. 282 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: Right then they named vegetables meat. So who can trust 283 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: these people? Take back my distrust of Amy? And I say, 284 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 1: Rachel and Andy Berlin or I don't trust you. We 285 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: have a Berliner that works here, Scott. Maybe they're related alright, 286 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: So meatballs? Who's having a meatball today?
