Speaker 1: Start uf dot Up, Start Up, Brooklyn Boys Start Up.
Speaker 1: Brooklyn Boys, Start dat Up. They're making noise. Dat Up
Speaker 1: start Up, Episode two seven, The Brooklyn Boys Podcast. What Hello,
Speaker 1: David Brodie, How are you doing today? I'm feeling romantic? Scary? Yeah?
Speaker 1: This is it? Is it love in the air? Well,
Speaker 1: I don't know about love, but um, I'm not buying
Speaker 1: flowers or chocolate today and I'm saving money. So yeah,
Speaker 1: love is in the air. Wow, I'm gonna do it.
Speaker 1: I'm not exchanging You're not exchanging uh for Valentine's Day
Speaker 1: because our birthdays just happened, the holidays just passed, and
Speaker 1: our anniversaries coming up. Doesn't we stop robbing from hooking
Speaker 1: me up? My birthday is always uh two weeks after
Speaker 1: Valentine's Day, and I get a gift from both for
Speaker 1: both of That's nice. She's still trying to win you
Speaker 1: all for bro my wife has me. Oh, so now
Speaker 1: she feels she doesn't have to put the effort in.
Speaker 1: I see we have I mean we have each other.
Speaker 1: We put effort. My point is, I think Robin is
Speaker 1: still trying to to make sure she has you long term.
Speaker 1: She's still acting like she cares it's like you guys
Speaker 1: like getting a young relationship. But we always are like that.
Speaker 1: And and I'll say this, and it is Valentine's Day,
Speaker 1: by the way, in case you're wondering when we're recording
Speaker 1: this and not post it on Valentine's Day, but we're
Speaker 1: recording it. Yeah, we made executive decisions. So check this.
Speaker 1: I go through the motions every year and I'm no,
Speaker 1: I'm always the guy who has to have the list,
Speaker 1: the candy, the check, the flowers check, the card check,
Speaker 1: the restaurant check, the gift check. Now, I know that's
Speaker 1: where that's where you take issue with this because some
Speaker 1: for some the gift is the dinner or the flowers
Speaker 1: in the card, all combined with a dinner. So so
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, I'll leave it. I'll leave
Speaker 1: it right here, and we don't have to dwell on it.
Speaker 1: But but I feel the one thing that has to
Speaker 1: happen on Valentine's Date is they have to get no,
Speaker 1: they have to get the roses to the to the office. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because it's a it's like a moment of peacocking, right, like, oh,
Speaker 1: look at me with my giant bouquet of flowers in
Speaker 1: a vase. Oh, and then everybody on in the office stairs.
Speaker 1: It's kind of a good feeling. I mean, I know,
Speaker 1: it's have you gotten roses sent to the office. I
Speaker 1: got my first flowers today, though, from ever, from Gandhi.
Speaker 1: Gandhi was handing out flowers to all the guys today
Speaker 1: and I was, which is fine, everybody, that's very nice,
Speaker 1: But that's not special Skiary, I was I wasking specifically, No,
Speaker 1: it's nice, props to Gandhi. What I'm saying is, has
Speaker 1: anyone ever sent you like a bouquet of flowers? No? Never, ever,
Speaker 1: But I understand how important it is for for some
Speaker 1: women to have that. So I figured I would just
Speaker 1: send it to the office. So that's paid triple price.
Speaker 1: What do you think price triple price? I don't even
Speaker 1: want to know. But I just wanted it to be
Speaker 1: there on time today. And uh, she texted me, she said,
Speaker 1: I think I somebody was allergic. I was three ft
Speaker 1: away from them walking through the hallway and they started
Speaker 1: sneezing up a storm. But that's called loneliness, she said her.
Speaker 1: She's she says her her office like, oh, that's impressive,
Speaker 1: that's nice. That's nice. So you know you gotta do that.
Speaker 1: I think that's a good gesture. I think that's always
Speaker 1: going to be on the list. But all right, you
Speaker 1: know I didn't do candy this year. I think candy
Speaker 1: is over. It is candy over. I don't know. My
Speaker 1: wife's never been a big leg send me a box
Speaker 1: of chocolate, person. See, I like eating chocolate, but I
Speaker 1: don't And I just feel that all right, And maybe
Speaker 1: I don't know. The card is need the card though?
Speaker 1: To top it off, you hadn't sent flowers, right, and
Speaker 1: that's a reason for her to reach out to you.
Speaker 1: Which one of you would have texted the other or
Speaker 1: called the other one and said Happy Valentine's Day. First,
Speaker 1: we had a text exchange early this morning, so regard
Speaker 1: very nice. And it started with me. But oh look
Speaker 1: at you. Now, if you hadn't texted her, would she
Speaker 1: have texted you? Yeah, of course I just got to hers.
Speaker 1: But okay, very good. But I feel like you kids
Speaker 1: have a shot of Steff sticking together. But dinner. See,
Speaker 1: this is where I kind of take exception to everything.
Speaker 1: I would rather celebrate. I would well, I would rather
Speaker 1: celebrate Valentine's Day on the Saturday before or the Saturday
Speaker 1: after because it's more convenient. I tried for the Saturday
Speaker 1: for this Saturday, but we both had something to do
Speaker 1: early morning Sunday, and we were like, yeah, she's well,
Speaker 1: she's going out with their but so my wife plans
Speaker 1: with my one of my daughters. So no, no, maybe
Speaker 1: her side piece, you know, right on the side piece
Speaker 1: was with wife. So it's okay, but to mass but
Speaker 1: you know, this is a one thing that's a sticking
Speaker 1: point for for my girlfriend. And it's like, they gotta
Speaker 1: have the Valentine's Day dinner on Valentine's Day. So if
Speaker 1: that falls on a Monday, so be it. What did
Speaker 1: she did? She make plans that she did. I made
Speaker 1: the booking, but something else. It's Tuesday. I'm like, come
Speaker 1: on now, it's a work night, it's a school day.
Speaker 1: I know I'm crying. I'm belly aching. I'm belly aching.
Speaker 1: But I like, I like how I love Robin. I
Speaker 1: like the way she has you wrapped her on her finger.
Speaker 1: She she will only accept Valentine's Day on Tuesday, and
Speaker 1: she got you to make the reservation. You're a swell guy. Well,
Speaker 1: so are you going to a romantic place? We're going
Speaker 1: to a place where I can that complies with my
Speaker 1: diet right now. Oh, so you're jipping her on the dinner,
Speaker 1: slipping her on dinner. We're going to a chicken We're
Speaker 1: going to No, we're going to a nice seafood spot. This,
Speaker 1: this is not a jip. Okay, hold on a second,
Speaker 1: hold on, didn't won't culture cancel the word jip here?
Speaker 1: That's not you should you shouldn't be using that word anymore. Well,
Speaker 1: if you spell it j I P. You can say it,
Speaker 1: but that's how I spell it, if you're okay. So
Speaker 1: in Brooklyn, jip means ripped off. Yeah, jip like I
Speaker 1: got jipped, however, and I don't think it's I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna say what will culture anna snowflakes the snowflakes? No,
Speaker 1: this is this is about a ten year old thing.
Speaker 1: So it's before the current movement. Um so jipped from
Speaker 1: and you don't need to tweet me um sure. But
Speaker 1: it's short for gypsy, okay, And it implies that gypsies
Speaker 1: were crooks and thieves and dishonest and would rip you off.
Speaker 1: It would be like saying I'm sorry, I can't the
Speaker 1: snowflake jingles coming out for this one. Sorry, all right, Well,
Speaker 1: if there's Gypsy's listening, it's snowing here on the podcast.
Speaker 1: Sorry man, I thought, and here I was thought we
Speaker 1: were in the clear for getting snow this season. But
Speaker 1: here we are in mid February. It's snowing on Valentine's Day.
Speaker 1: I can't deal with it. I can't deal with fucking
Speaker 1: snowflakes telling me I can't say that word. It doesn't
Speaker 1: have a conversation. No, I told you you can't say.
Speaker 1: Somebody cram telling you somebody. Oh wow, hold, but you
Speaker 1: said at first, Actually I just copied you. I just
Speaker 1: explained it to you. I know, but I'm not. That
Speaker 1: word is sticking to the Oxford English Dictionary. The first
Speaker 1: known recorded definition of the term gyp dates back to dictionary,
Speaker 1: which says it is probably an abbreviation of gypsy as
Speaker 1: applied to a sly unscrupulous person. So uh, if you
Speaker 1: are are a gypsy and you now know the word
Speaker 1: is related to you, you might not be happy. But
Speaker 1: can define gypsy now now we gotta get back again
Speaker 1: into that. Like I think I think people can go
Speaker 1: look at up. I don't feel like I know the
Speaker 1: song of you know, Gypsy by by Steve Steve Nis.
Speaker 1: Isn't it the gypsies, tramps and thieves studying share man?
Speaker 1: You see? GYP said durned dawn down, down down. If
Speaker 1: you want to look up the etymology of of either
Speaker 1: of those words or what gypsy men, go ahead. This
Speaker 1: isn't for that. But it's not like it's a race.
Speaker 1: It's not like a race thing because gypsy isn't a race.
Speaker 1: It's a is it a level of person? I don't
Speaker 1: know what Maybe I'm I don't level of person, Okay,
Speaker 1: A member of people originating in South Asia and traditionally
Speaker 1: having an itinerant way of life, lively living widely dispersed
Speaker 1: across Europe, North and South America. Okay, so we're a
Speaker 1: Romani language. It's related to Hindu Romani people, so it's offensive.
Speaker 1: It is. It's a culture. Okay, all right, it's a culture,
Speaker 1: so it's right. Doesn't mean I may not say it
Speaker 1: by accident, but I'm telling you. You asked me in
Speaker 1: Brooklyn said Gyp all the time with did J J
Speaker 1: I P. But whatever, I'm just well, I guess it's
Speaker 1: like saying the bad word with an A at the end,
Speaker 1: you know, Instead of an R. If you say it
Speaker 1: with a J, you could try. It's not gonna work.
Speaker 1: I think that you're comparing two different things. Uh, but anyway,
Speaker 1: I digress, we digress. You you I am, I am. Well.
Speaker 1: You owe me? Well, I know you owe me, but
Speaker 1: you owe me big time. So of the thought you
Speaker 1: said when you said you got jip towards where you
Speaker 1: got you? Oh yeah, you said you got your thought?
Speaker 1: Oh you you were? You said so. I was saying,
Speaker 1: if you were going for Valentine's Day in April, would
Speaker 1: you be going to this restaurant or a better one?
Speaker 1: I would be going to a no, same level, same level,
Speaker 1: same level, the same restaurant. Yeah maybe, Yeah, it's a
Speaker 1: great spot. I mean it's not overly romantic. I mean
Speaker 1: it's in the business district where everybody goes to after workplaces.
Speaker 1: But it's still awesome. All right. It's about the time
Speaker 1: spent together, now, isn't it there, David Brodie? Is it though?
Speaker 1: Is it's supposed to be? But don't make it something
Speaker 1: it's not. Well, if it's about the time spent together,
Speaker 1: you guys can go to But as long as the
Speaker 1: cards and flowers and gifts involved, it doesn't matter. Then
Speaker 1: then it's a night. We call it a Valentine's night.
Speaker 1: And I'm glad to come out on a Tuesday, not
Speaker 1: belly aching, just saying Tuesday on a Tuesday, but I
Speaker 1: wish it was a Friday or Saturday. That's all on
Speaker 1: a friday, alright. So ye are you hating static? No?

Speaker 1: thirty swap sites in your general area within twenty five
Speaker 1: miles of where you live. So I ow many many sites,
Speaker 1: and so you post in the marketplace. It posts on
Speaker 1: all of the sites at once. On one of the sites,
Speaker 1: a woman who must live in that town. I do not,
Speaker 1: but she lives in that town, she says, when you
Speaker 1: get this exact quote, because I got it into a
Speaker 1: fight with the woman. She puts a link up for
Speaker 1: some scam website and it says seventy five at Walmart
Speaker 1: with a link. So she's basically she's out selling me,
Speaker 1: like she's low balling me. But it's she can go
Speaker 1: buy it like she's so. I said, what exactly is
Speaker 1: your point? If it's less money at Walmart, go buy Walmart,
Speaker 1: but don't post a link to where people can go
Speaker 1: buy it for less. That's not your job, I said. Besides,
Speaker 1: your link says it's eight five seven cents a Walmart.
Speaker 1: Go ruin someone else's day. She says, the point is
Speaker 1: your price is too high, and yes, I bought it
Speaker 1: at Walmart for half price. Bullshit, she did, not no shot,
Speaker 1: no shot, she did, that's correct. I hate people like her.
Speaker 1: The point is, I said, no. The point is it's
Speaker 1: not your business. If you don't like the price, then
Speaker 1: don't buy it. But I don't need you advertising lower prices.
Speaker 1: My auction is for people who don't want to pay
Speaker 1: tax and maybe don't want to travel or don't want
Speaker 1: to pay for shipping. Live your life. I've already had
Speaker 1: three people asked me about it at regular price. So

Speaker 1: I'm rooting. I'm rooting for you. I got I got
Speaker 1: my Dave Brodie jersey on right now, my hat and yeah,
Speaker 1: there they are multiplying. Did you like the John Travolta
Speaker 1: T mobile commercial? Grape minds? Think go Like I was
Speaker 1: about to say the same thing. I did enjoy it. It
Speaker 1: It was one of my favorite commercials of all the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Brody I didn't because it's like you don't
Speaker 1: usually see him waxing nostalgic about his old seventies and
Speaker 1: eighties movies like that. He's he's gotta he's gotta start
Speaker 1: waxing nostalgic because his his careers are slowing down. Now.
Speaker 1: You think if Olivia Newton John was still alive, that
Speaker 1: she would be in the commercial too, if they could
Speaker 1: have afforded the two of them. Yeah, yeah, but but
Speaker 1: I thought I thought that was a great It was
Speaker 1: the uh they did summer loving, they did some loving.
Speaker 1: Yeah it was. It was an averagely written parody. I
Speaker 1: did love that. I can't remember the I don't remember
Speaker 1: the the the sponsor, who was the suppertized sponsor? I
Speaker 1: said it was the John Travolta T mobile mobile. See
Speaker 1: that's the sign of a good commercial. And you don't
Speaker 1: remember the commercial company and it's not the sign of
Speaker 1: a good commercial. It was like last year, ft X. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: remember that they had they had in a lot of
Speaker 1: trouble this year, right, well, last year for the Super
Speaker 1: Bowl they had a big commercial with Larry David and
Speaker 1: everyone remembered the Larry David commercial, but nobody could remember
Speaker 1: it was ft X yeah. Oh wow everyone X. So
Speaker 1: I have a prediction. Well, by the way, as you guys,
Speaker 1: slices may or may not know, some of you know,
Speaker 1: most of you know. Maybe I want to send a
Speaker 1: special shout out to the many slices that checked in
Speaker 1: and the live stream to my Super Bowl appearance on Sunday,
Speaker 1: which we did reviewing the commercials and my favorite and
Speaker 1: a lot of slices were checking in, you know, Slice
Speaker 1: for Life. And I also want to send a shout
Speaker 1: out to uh the only two people I worked with
Speaker 1: on the morning show who who reached out and jumped
Speaker 1: in the chat and retweeted and posted UH. And that
Speaker 1: would be Bethany and Kathleen. Thank you guys for for
Speaker 1: doing that. Scary retweeted from the Brooklyn Boys account, So
Speaker 1: props to you, Scary UM. But we got a lot
Speaker 1: of slices chiming in and UH and we're very happy
Speaker 1: UH and and excited for me and said some very
Speaker 1: nice things in the chat. We're enjoying it. Uh that
Speaker 1: being said, my favorite super Bowl commercial. Oh, by the way,
Speaker 1: you can see everything on YouTube. If not today, in
Speaker 1: a few days you should be able to see it.
Speaker 1: H the whole thing recapped and edited without the brakes
Speaker 1: and everything will be on the the sooth s O
Speaker 1: O t H sooth be told YouTube page. I believe. Anyway,
Speaker 1: that being said, I think my favorite two T mobile
Speaker 1: was third. I loved the avocados from Mexico. The Garden
Speaker 1: of Eden commercial. Yeah, I thought that was brilliant. Were like,
Speaker 1: once again, nudity is hot on the on the on
Speaker 1: the on the runway, it's in fashion again. This I
Speaker 1: like the to Be commercial as well. The commercial was brilliant.
Speaker 1: That was the one where you thought that that someone
Speaker 1: stepped on them and that was changing the channel for you.
Speaker 1: Love that. And I loved the I loved the Nick
Speaker 1: Jonas commercial not because it was funny, it was just
Speaker 1: well done. Uh, perfectly done, got the point across. And
Speaker 1: I I I'll tell you which which commercials I hated?
Speaker 1: Did you have? I had some least favorites. I'll tell
Speaker 1: you the two I hated. I hated the Eminem's commercial.
Speaker 1: I think we're supposed to hate the Eminem's commercial. Uh.
Speaker 1: And the spokespeople are back, the candies are back. They
Speaker 1: had another second commercial at the end. If you didn't
Speaker 1: see it, uh so clams anyways commercial. Yeah. The My
Speaker 1: second least favorite commercial was the Hellman's commercial with John
Speaker 1: ham Bree Larson, and Pete Davidson. Commercially, it was gratuitous
Speaker 1: and it was a play on words. Get it problem
Speaker 1: and the problem if you if you haven't seen the commercial,
Speaker 1: go watch it on YouTube. They're in a small refrigerator
Speaker 1: and they're like, oh, I'm Bree your ham. You know
Speaker 1: we're we're gonna and look, mayonnaise goes with everything. Okay, great, yeah,
Speaker 1: mayonnaise goes with everything unless you're meet then you could
Speaker 1: catch them in everything. So then Pete Davidson opens the
Speaker 1: refrigerator and says, I'm gonna eat you guys. But he doesn't.
Speaker 1: He eats an actual ham in Bree sandwich that he grills,
Speaker 1: and then he's eating it talking to now a life
Speaker 1: size John Hamm and Bree Larson and they're like, that's disgusting.
Speaker 1: It didn't make any sense now had he imagined it
Speaker 1: like if he was stoned on pot like Pete Davidson
Speaker 1: might be, and was imagining their bodies in the bread
Speaker 1: that ate them. And then it was like Pete snap
Speaker 1: out of it, and he's like, hu huh, oh I
Speaker 1: just I I dream about putting Halmons on everything. That
Speaker 1: would have made sense. But commercial was a train wreck
Speaker 1: the way it was hated. It also didn't like the
Speaker 1: Dorito's commercial with the love triangle. I didn't see that one.
Speaker 1: It was with um was it missing Elliott Elton John
Speaker 1: and uh, what's the kid? I only saw it. I
Speaker 1: didn't hear it. I had no sound on that one.
Speaker 1: You flying first class on Jack Harlow, Jack Harler. Jack
Speaker 1: Harlow was in it. They said, oh, Jack Harlow, is
Speaker 1: it true about the love triangle? So I thought because
Speaker 1: the Doritos a triangle shaped, that three celebrities would be
Speaker 1: lady in the tramping the chip, like eating each corner
Speaker 1: like the and and like eating towards each other like
Speaker 1: a love triangle. That would have been a better concept
Speaker 1: but that but all it was was Jack Harlow plays
Speaker 1: the triangle, makes the triangle cool? That's not a love
Speaker 1: triangle and then he loses out on the Grammy Elton
Speaker 1: John who also plays the triangle and makes it look
Speaker 1: like he's more talented than Jack Harlow, which is a
Speaker 1: slap in the face to Jack Harlow where over realizing
Speaker 1: over already commercial should have paid me a million dollars
Speaker 1: to do the commercial because he sucked. But anyway, the
Speaker 1: grease commercial was excellent. That's really what I was going. Okay, yeah, um,
Speaker 1: you know, um, there's a there's no there's a place, no, no,
Speaker 1: no that I wanted to bring this up, and I
Speaker 1: hope I don't offend them because they are in our list.
Speaker 1: You've already offended gypsies going there in our listening area. Um,
Speaker 1: it could be god, oh, New Yorker's evally all Philadelphia, No, no, nope,
Speaker 1: down in Tinton Falls, New Jersey. This was in the post.
Speaker 1: I think I'm trying to figure out where this for
Speaker 1: a split second, we do a podcast. Everyone's in our
Speaker 1: listening area. Yeah, but we have a high concentration in
Speaker 1: specially New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. Yeah, hotless
Speaker 1: hotbed hot beds for us. So this did you There's
Speaker 1: a place called Nettie's House of Spaghetti. Have you heard
Speaker 1: of it? No? But I love that. I want to
Speaker 1: give a credit to the New York Post. Then they
Speaker 1: cook it in the Nettie pot. No, no, no, it's
Speaker 1: just the name of the place. Now. I didn't get
Speaker 1: to comment on this earlier, but I wanted. I wanted
Speaker 1: to like leave leave comments on it. Um it gets
Speaker 1: to four point five Google rating. It's an Italian restaurant
Speaker 1: Tinton Falls, New Jersey. They are in the news today
Speaker 1: because they have decided that no one under the age
Speaker 1: of ten is going to be allowed in this restaurant. Oh,
Speaker 1: I saw that on non fallon last night, right, and
Speaker 1: then Asbury actually Asbury Park Press where I was reading it,
Speaker 1: and then Elvis mentioned it briefly this morning. I didn't
Speaker 1: we didn't dwell on it. So anyway, pretty much saying
Speaker 1: that if you're under ten, no way can you come
Speaker 1: into our restaurant. Um. And that is because well they go.
Speaker 1: They first preface it by sent here comes the ship Sandwich.
Speaker 1: We love kids, we really do, but lately it's been
Speaker 1: extremely challenging to accommodate children. Noise level, lack of space
Speaker 1: for high chairs, clean up, the crazy messes and the
Speaker 1: liability of kids running around the restaurant. We decided time
Speaker 1: to take control. Uh and it was it wasn't a
Speaker 1: decision that was made lightly so starting in March, no
Speaker 1: kids allowed to a place to Neddie's House of Spaghetti.
Speaker 1: And if you look at the way the food is
Speaker 1: plated at this place, and you look at the restaurant itself,
Speaker 1: restaurant looks like it could be a family restaurant. But
Speaker 1: they have a nice upscale bar and the food is
Speaker 1: plated really well. It looks like a little upscale. From
Speaker 1: the outside, it looks like a basic like okay, it's
Speaker 1: like a house or something. It does not. It's not
Speaker 1: impressive from the outside, but on the inside very nice. Okay,
Speaker 1: that said, what do you think? What do you think
Speaker 1: the issue is? Um other than because I'm I've thoughts
Speaker 1: about it, about about having this restaurant do what it's
Speaker 1: doing under its current name. Well, it sounds like a
Speaker 1: kid's place exactly. It sounds like a place you you
Speaker 1: go off the Jersey Time Pike. Hey, everybody, we're going
Speaker 1: to Nettie's has a spaghetti. First of all, you've got
Speaker 1: a rhyming title to and spaghetti you use the word
Speaker 1: spaghetti in the name of your play Spaghetti kids Children.
Speaker 1: So they have an identity crisis. They've got a brand
Speaker 1: where they've got a brand problem. They need to rebrand
Speaker 1: themselves as a Nets trattoria or something or Nets resta
Speaker 1: Nets restaurante, or take away the word Nettie or Nettie's
Speaker 1: or not. Gonna give up Nettie's House of Spaghetti because
Speaker 1: it's listen, let me let me, let me back up
Speaker 1: for a second before we debate this. Jimmy fallon New
Speaker 1: York Post, the Morning Show, pressed, this podcasts, rise, press whatever.
Speaker 1: We're all talking about it. And here's what I'm gonna hear. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say they're gonna pull an Eminem's maneuver. They're
Speaker 1: gonna pull a new Coke maneuver. What's the new Coke maneuver?
Speaker 1: You say? In the eighties, new Coke came out right,
Speaker 1: they replaced it, They changed the flavor of coke. Has
Speaker 1: heard on this po cast several times, Yes, new Coke,
Speaker 1: and then when people didn't like it, they brought back
Speaker 1: coke as a hero on a white horse. Sales went
Speaker 1: through the roof. They sold new cocas New Coke for
Speaker 1: a while as a separate entity, then died out and
Speaker 1: then everyone forgot and now it's just Coke again. Right.
Speaker 1: The same thing with the M and M's. They brought
Speaker 1: in My Rudolph to get attention. They made a terrible
Speaker 1: commercial so people would be begging for the candies again.
Speaker 1: The candies were back before the game was over. It's
Speaker 1: all a big thing, I'm telling you. Before March, they're
Speaker 1: gonna say, you know what, we've said a code of
Speaker 1: conduct for kids, and uh they we're gonna allow kids
Speaker 1: Monday to Thursday. We're rethinking it's only on Friday and
Speaker 1: Saturday for romantic nights. They're gonna change the policy in
Speaker 1: some way because the amazing feedback they got this was
Speaker 1: a great move super Bowl attention. So that's that's only
Speaker 1: if they really do have this marketing plan in in effect.
Speaker 1: If they don't and this is just for real and
Speaker 1: it's just gonna stay that way, then something's gotta give.
Speaker 1: You need to change the name of your restaurant to
Speaker 1: accommodate a more adult theme. So this way, when people
Speaker 1: to change their name to Stromboni scan Boni, that's what
Speaker 1: they're gonna change their name to So your call, your
Speaker 1: call is that come back by summer and the kids
Speaker 1: will be running rampant again. I think somebody thought it
Speaker 1: was a good idea for a day and then the
Speaker 1: backlash that hit them. They're gonna get the press. They
Speaker 1: they already have. They've gotten the press. It's already headline news. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go look at their yelled page. It's right
Speaker 1: up there with the the Oscar meyer Weener mobile got
Speaker 1: its catalytic converter stolen so they couldn't make it to
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. I mean it was right there on
Speaker 1: ten ten winds. Sorry that happened. Nellie's Nettie Nettie, Nettie Nettie,
Speaker 1: Nettie's House, Spaghetti House of uh Jettie. On Yelp, let's
Speaker 1: see it gets a four point five. This is a
Speaker 1: this is an actual this is a good restaurant, solid food.
Speaker 1: I eat there. They got a four out of five.
Speaker 1: I hate Yelp. Google ratings is more true. There's a
Speaker 1: reason why I'm going on Yelp, but did not go
Speaker 1: here for for accurate reviews. I'm going here. And by
Speaker 1: the way, the usual activity alert this business recently increased
Speaker 1: public attention, which often means people come to the page
Speaker 1: to post their views on the news while we don't
Speaker 1: take a stand one way or another one and as
Speaker 1: we temporarily disabled the posting of content to this page.
Speaker 1: I knew it. I knew it. Why because people are
Speaker 1: gonna go there abash them about the kids policy. What
Speaker 1: about the other side of this coin, what about people
Speaker 1: that need I mean, every if you go to any restaurant,
Speaker 1: they all welcome kids. So can adults have a thing
Speaker 1: for themselves that this is if you live in this
Speaker 1: What if you live in this town and you and
Speaker 1: the kids go there and your kid's favorite piscati is
Speaker 1: Nettie's House of Spaghetti? Are you, Mama June staying in
Speaker 1: terms of the kids? The kids are like my favorite?
Speaker 1: What do Mamma June call it? And and uh yeah,
Speaker 1: baby say yeah no kids yeah. But I once again
Speaker 1: it goes back to I'm sorry, Tommy, we can't go
Speaker 1: to Nettie's House of Spaghetti anymore because me, the mean man,
Speaker 1: decided he doesn't like you anymore. But I didn't make
Speaker 1: a mess. So while you're paying the price for every
Speaker 1: child the crux, no, but the crux of the problem
Speaker 1: is you didn't go through a name change. Shame on.
Speaker 1: You change your name to something more upper class or
Speaker 1: something that more is more adult sounding. Nettie's Castle of Spaghetti. No,
Speaker 1: as I said's mansion. Maybe it's oh, Nettie's Exclusive Golf
Speaker 1: Club of Spaghetti. Maybe like all Frisco, or or something
Speaker 1: with the word pasta in it, or something that's not spaghetti,
Speaker 1: because Asta's house of postive think spaghetti, you think spaghetti,
Speaker 1: you think meatballs, you think kids? Do you think spaghetti?
Speaker 1: It's just it's a kid thing. I mean, what's the meat?
Speaker 1: No I I I've never gone out of fancy for
Speaker 1: spaghetti because you slurp it, you get it all of yourself.
Speaker 1: Spaghetti is a fun kids food exactly. That's why there's
Speaker 1: a problem here. Change the name of the restaurant and
Speaker 1: then I think all your problems go away. Well, you
Speaker 1: can't change it. Now. Look at all the pressure getting
Speaker 1: and by the way, it's so much heat. Back to
Speaker 1: remember they're gonna change back to policy conspiracy theory. We
Speaker 1: gotta take a break. What about ron Zoni? Uh? Are
Speaker 1: they're gonna bring back postina after they you heard about
Speaker 1: the pastina thing. We talked about that, and did we
Speaker 1: talk about it. Nobody was buying pustina until they said,
Speaker 1: we're not making pastin anymore. Yeah, but then anybody ran
Speaker 1: on got boxing. But now now they had a run
Speaker 1: on them and they're on eBay for like fucking fifty
Speaker 1: dollars a box. You can't find pastina Ronzoni pastina. I
Speaker 1: know Burilla makes postina and other companies do, but the
Speaker 1: original Ronzoni pastina is no longer. And they said after
Speaker 1: people complained, sorry, they doubled down and they said, nope,
Speaker 1: we're not We're not making it anymore. See you later.
Speaker 1: It's being discontinued. And and and do you think that
Speaker 1: was smart? They start selling that pastina have price for
Speaker 1: Do you think they're gonna double Do you think they're
Speaker 1: gonna double back and be like ha ha, it was
Speaker 1: a marketing ploy. I don't think so. I think you know,
Speaker 1: it depends on It depends on the feedback. Well, listen,
Speaker 1: TV shows get canceled all the time, people bring them
Speaker 1: back sometimes. I guess, all right, enough about pasta and
Speaker 1: spaghetti and never enough about pasta macaroni. The Book Boys podcast,
Speaker 1: We will be okay? Then I love man what everything
Speaker 1: we do revolves around food. If you think about it,
Speaker 1: it always comes back to food in some way, whether
Speaker 1: it does it though't pizza, or it's pasta or dil Alright,
Speaker 1: well okay, yeah, okay, Well you got into atil fight
Speaker 1: on Twitter this weekend. I don't want to rehash yesterday.
Speaker 1: I don't want to rehash it are slices, no, I know,
Speaker 1: but you got it got it didn't get ugly, it
Speaker 1: just got I just I just threw some I threw
Speaker 1: some Jewish knowledge from Jewish websites right at her, because
Speaker 1: she said that dial is not used in Jewish cooking
Speaker 1: and you can't comment on it because you're not Jewish. Well,
Speaker 1: first of all, that's that's a terrible thing to say,
Speaker 1: because anyone could comment on anything if they do the
Speaker 1: research and have the knowledge. I mean, you could point
Speaker 1: out thousands of experience is still different than going on
Speaker 1: a way. But that's the way it was in your
Speaker 1: We've come to terms that that's the way it was
Speaker 1: in her household, the same way it is in your household,
Speaker 1: the same way. You don't speak for the entire religion
Speaker 1: and meat balls. What was your meatball story? Now? I said,
Speaker 1: when it comes to meat balls. In my house, it
Speaker 1: was the holy trinity of making in the meatball making world,
Speaker 1: and that is veal. That is veal chicken. I'm sorry, no, sorry, veal.
Speaker 1: I wanted to saying veal beef, no chicken, veal pork
Speaker 1: and beef veal, right, no cheat, no chicken, and and
Speaker 1: that used those three meats combined to make your meat
Speaker 1: balls as the base. So we don't speak in absolutes,
Speaker 1: but I figured out there as a comment, and then
Speaker 1: that's the way it was in my house. Now you
Speaker 1: could do it however the hell you want to do it,
Speaker 1: you know, okay, but but you hate dil. But you've
Speaker 1: argued with me several times on this podcast. You just
Speaker 1: put Dylan their mountster ble soup. I'm just saying it sucks, right,
Speaker 1: I know, right, But you know there was a time
Speaker 1: where you said it's not used in traditional Jewish cooking.
Speaker 1: What the hell you when you were ripping off, ripping
Speaker 1: on Siddel's because they did that, you like, your comments
Speaker 1: exactly were this place is fake? Who puts dial in
Speaker 1: mounster ball soup as if to say it was not
Speaker 1: used in European cooking. It's a major, major, herb or whatever.
Speaker 1: You okayisode they overdid it? Did it? Man? They might
Speaker 1: have overdone it. Still, let me ask you. Let me

Speaker 1: um over money. No, so with the with the teller?
Speaker 1: Was it because your account was overdrawn, as you wanted
Speaker 1: ten dollars pulled out of your account. Not the case, okay.
Speaker 1: So I needed to write a bunch of checks this
Speaker 1: week from an account. I couldn't find the checkbook okay,
Speaker 1: and I couldn't transfer from what I didn't want to try.
Speaker 1: I wanted to write a check from a certain bank
Speaker 1: account for certain reasons, okay, And so I couldn't find
Speaker 1: my checkbook. So I went into the branch and I said, hey, uh,
Speaker 1: Now there's three tellers. Older woman on the left, young
Speaker 1: young young teller in the middle, and a guy on
Speaker 1: the right. So the guy calls me up to the window.
Speaker 1: There's a tall gentleman, not the guy from the burlesque show,
Speaker 1: but a tall gentleman at the middle, the middle teller,
Speaker 1: the young girl, and the older woman is just I
Speaker 1: don't counting money. She's not helping anybody at the moment.
Speaker 1: So I say to the guy, hey, man, I need
Speaker 1: um I need six um temporary checks, you know. So
Speaker 1: they what they do is they print checks your account
Speaker 1: number on them, but not your name, and this way
Speaker 1: you can use them until your checks arrived. So I said,
Speaker 1: I'd like to order checks twelve dollars whatever, and I
Speaker 1: need six of the instant checks temporary checks. He says, well, um,
Speaker 1: I'm mon't allowed to give you three. I said, why
Speaker 1: can't you give me six? Yeah, I'm mont allowed to
Speaker 1: give you three. So so uh, I said, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: I don't see where this is going. By the way, Well,
Speaker 1: so I say to myself, well, I'll just have to
Speaker 1: come back tomorrow. We got to three. I need six.
Speaker 1: So the guy next to me says, yeah to his teller.
Speaker 1: I got a question. I also need temporary checks, but
Speaker 1: I need I need like ten. So if I can
Speaker 1: only get three, how long before I can come back
Speaker 1: and get three more? Now, the woman in the end,
Speaker 1: the older woman, looks up and she says, sir, they're
Speaker 1: temporary checks. You get three, So what are they having
Speaker 1: a run on paper? I don't understand they physically they
Speaker 1: can't give you more than three checks. It's your account.
Speaker 1: You should have unlimited. When you buy the whole checkbook,
Speaker 1: you get fucking it doesn't matter. You can order hundreds
Speaker 1: and hundreds. What is it really going to set them
Speaker 1: back if you have three more pieces of paper? So
Speaker 1: I said, you know what? To be honest, miss I
Speaker 1: also have that question. Is it three per month or
Speaker 1: can I come back tomorrow and get three more? Because
Speaker 1: I don't live far from here, sir, they're temporary checks.
Speaker 1: You can order order yourself checks. And I said, I
Speaker 1: already did order myself checks, but I need six today.
Speaker 1: I need them before the checkbook or it's your it's
Speaker 1: your account, and there's proposed to be working for you
Speaker 1: and helping you write if you want to pull money
Speaker 1: out of your account and you don't have a temporary check.
Speaker 1: By the way, why why are we talking about writing checks?
Speaker 1: To listen, I don't want to get into that part.
Speaker 1: I have to che you understand. I understand certain it's
Speaker 1: it's it's somebody I have to pay money to that
Speaker 1: only accepts check. Understood. I understanding companies, tax purposes, different things.
Speaker 1: Slices are wondering right now, one of the check to
Speaker 1: the I R s. I gotta write check. I get it,
Speaker 1: I got it. I'm going to shop right And the
Speaker 1: fact is the fact that they did that to you,
Speaker 1: they would lose my cut. That would lose my service
Speaker 1: right there, that my account. I said, you're not answering
Speaker 1: my question. I need to know if I can come
Speaker 1: back tomorrow and get three more if it's three a day.
Speaker 1: She says, Sir, they're temporary checks. That means they're temporary.
Speaker 1: I said, so you're explaining to me what the word
Speaker 1: temporary means. Sir. You get three checks and then you
Speaker 1: can order checks if you need more. I said, okay,
Speaker 1: but you didn't answer my ques, Sir, I answered your question.
Speaker 1: You're not listening to me, so I so, I said, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm hearing you. I'm hearing his sassin attitude because I'm
Speaker 1: being nice to you. I just want to know, yes,
Speaker 1: I said, I just want to know, man, And I
Speaker 1: was being trying to me as nice as I could.
Speaker 1: And the guy next to me, he's like, yeah, answer
Speaker 1: the man's question, because he had the same question. I said, Look,
Speaker 1: I'm not looking to fight with you. I just want
Speaker 1: to know if I can come in tomorrow or a
Speaker 1: week from now, when my checks still haven't arrived because
Speaker 1: it takes two to three weeks, if I can get
Speaker 1: three more checks exactly. So, she says, maybe you didn't
Speaker 1: hear me, tell Berary and you can order a book.
Speaker 1: Not answering. Not answering your question, She's not. She's just
Speaker 1: asked that question, I said, I don't know if your
Speaker 1: cardigan is too tight or what. What I'm asking you
Speaker 1: a very polite question. I know they're temporary. Please stop
Speaker 1: telling me I can order checks. You know why. I
Speaker 1: already ordered the checks. Ma'am. I already ordered the checks.
Speaker 1: But I need six checks from this bank before they arrive.
Speaker 1: What do I have to say to you to get
Speaker 1: six checks? That's it? Or tell me if I can
Speaker 1: come tomorrow. Are you working tomorrow, because if you're not,
Speaker 1: I'll come tomorrow. And she says, well, if you want
Speaker 1: six checks, I'll get your six checks. I said, well,
Speaker 1: that was nice of you, Thank you very much. Just
Speaker 1: all you have to do is ask him to get
Speaker 1: an attitude. So the guy says he didn't get an attitude.
Speaker 1: He asked you. He asked you four times how to
Speaker 1: get checks, and you refuse to answer him. So so
Speaker 1: who's wrong there? So she says, well, I guess I
Speaker 1: misunderstood the question. Scary did it sounds like she misunderstood
Speaker 1: the question. She refused to answer you no, no shot
Speaker 1: because you repeated yourself several times. Oh my god. And
Speaker 1: by the way, I think the only time I went
Speaker 1: into a bank in the last two years is to
Speaker 1: uh cash in my rolled up change. I rolled, I
Speaker 1: did my change rolling thing, and I went into I
Speaker 1: got I had to get five rappers for pennies there
Speaker 1: of two. No, there was no limit. That was that
Speaker 1: what they were given away like crazy. And then she
Speaker 1: says to me, I'm sorry, sir, would you like a lollipop?
Speaker 1: I said, yes, how many can I take? So she
Speaker 1: laughed and I took. I took three. I said, one
Speaker 1: for each check. And then she ended up giving me six. Okay,
Speaker 1: not a big fucking deal to give me six, that's right.
Speaker 1: It never was a print button. Oh my god. I
Speaker 1: have a similar story that happened to a friend of mine.
Speaker 1: And he was out to lunch and wanted one of
Speaker 1: those salads and then ordered, you know how you could
Speaker 1: add up char charge for chicken or shrimp or beef.
Speaker 1: So he wanted. He wanted chicken, but he wanted double chicken,
Speaker 1: so he said so he said, all right, great, I'll
Speaker 1: take the chicken, but I want I want double chicken.
Speaker 1: So and they're like, we don't do that here, what
Speaker 1: do you don't do that? Like, yeah, the dinner that's
Speaker 1: like a dinner portion size. Uh, the chicken is half
Speaker 1: a portion, and he goes, I know that. So if
Speaker 1: it's six dollars extra for chicken, charge me twelve. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: we can't. We can't do that. They refused at this
Speaker 1: place to give him a double order a chicken, and
Speaker 1: only because shrimp and what beef? Beef? All right, so
Speaker 1: charge me for beef. But instead of the beef, give
Speaker 1: me the goddamn chicken. Exactly exactly. He wanted double chicken.
Speaker 1: And some people it just there's no logic in their brain.
Speaker 1: It did two and two is five or nothing. Nothing
Speaker 1: makes any sense. But why would anybody, why would anyone
Speaker 1: want to double chicken? We don't. He's also denying the
Speaker 1: restaurant extra profit. The man wants chicken. You have the
Speaker 1: chicken back there, Sell the man an extra piece of chicken.
Speaker 1: You say, give me another salad, hold the salad. Just yeah.
Speaker 1: There's a great scene, and I think it's the movie
Speaker 1: is called Twelve Easy Pieces with Jack Nicholson. It's from
Speaker 1: the nineties seventies. But if you could look up the
Speaker 1: chicken salad sandwich scene from I think it's from Twelve
Speaker 1: Easy Pieces. Um, how he gets the food he wants
Speaker 1: is very similar to that, they won't make the food
Speaker 1: the way he wants. So Jack Nicholson tells the wages
Speaker 1: what he wants and tells her to hold this, hold that,
Speaker 1: and she goes, what do you want me to do
Speaker 1: with the chicken? He goes, I don't give you. Hold
Speaker 1: it between your legs, but don't bring it to me.
Speaker 1: He wanted toast, He wanted like he wanted, like dry
Speaker 1: right toast. She as, we don't serve that, don't serve that? Said,
Speaker 1: can I get a chicken salad sandwich on, hold on,
Speaker 1: on on the whole week toast whatever. She goes, Yes,
Speaker 1: he was great, Then give me a chicken salad sandwich
Speaker 1: on whole wheat toast. Hold hold the tomato, hold the
Speaker 1: chicken salad, and just just bring me the toast exactly
Speaker 1: basically that's it. But he doesn't much better because he's
Speaker 1: Jack Nicholson. Of course, Oh my god, all right, I
Speaker 1: have a headache. People are just sorry. Sorry, it's okay,
Speaker 1: it's okay. Listen. We'll we'll get we'll get by somehow,
Speaker 1: somehow we do. We're not gonna get by. We're not.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna get pie. You know it, I know
Speaker 1: it you're not. I don't know. You're okay, Bertie. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm okay, I'm okay. Uh. I can't seem to find
Speaker 1: so I I had three pages open to read stuff,
Speaker 1: and I can't find one of the pages that closed.
Speaker 1: Hold on, let's see what's this page? Oh there it is? Yeah, yeah, um,
Speaker 1: I wanted to tell you about Oh you know what,
Speaker 1: I have a very similar story about ordering things and
Speaker 1: they're not giving you what you want. So I ordered
Speaker 1: Thai food a couple of weeks ago. And this Thai
Speaker 1: restaurant is located in an alleyway, not like a like
Speaker 1: a scary alleyway, but it's like a walk through. So
Speaker 1: there's two main business streets in this town, and there's
Speaker 1: a walk through to get to the Thai restaurant. And
Speaker 1: if you didn't know where it was, you'd never find
Speaker 1: it because your NAV system takes you to the beginning
Speaker 1: of the alleyway, but you don't realize it's in the alleyway.
Speaker 1: So I went there, I called in my order, and
Speaker 1: you know, I ordered everything with no vegetables because that's
Speaker 1: how I roll. And I parked my car about a
Speaker 1: half a block from the alleyway and it's raining. And
Speaker 1: I walk all the way in up the block in
Speaker 1: the rain, all the way up the alleyway, which is
Speaker 1: almost the length of a block, and I go to
Speaker 1: the Thai restaurant. I said, uh. They said, oh, we'll
Speaker 1: be there, be there in twenty minutes. So uh, I
Speaker 1: got there in thirty minutes. I took my time make
Speaker 1: sure it was ready, and uh I walked there. It
Speaker 1: was like be three minutes by the time I got
Speaker 1: in from what I ordered. So the guy the uh,
Speaker 1: the woman at the counter says, uh, the orders is
Speaker 1: not ready yet. We're very busy. There was nobody there, okay,
Speaker 1: so maybe they were delivering. That's fine. Uh. So I
Speaker 1: she said, what was your phone number? I said, I
Speaker 1: give her the phone number, and I said she was okay, great.
Speaker 1: I got drunk in noodles and something called pat suka.
Speaker 1: Who yep. So I got two dishes and I got
Speaker 1: right back right I got. I got fried rice with
Speaker 1: pineapple and like a tie rice whatever it is, with
Speaker 1: cash shoes and pineapple. So they gave me the bag.
Speaker 1: Finally after another ten minutes, and now it's forty minutes
Speaker 1: or so after I ordered. When I said twenty minutes,
Speaker 1: not no problem, and they have a table there, you know,
Speaker 1: in the restaurants. I put my bag down and I'm like,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna check the food because it's a
Speaker 1: long walk in the alley. It walked to my car,
Speaker 1: and I don't want to have to walk all the
Speaker 1: way twice, so I pack. I unpacked the bags right there,
Speaker 1: and I see that the drunken noodles. I'm sorry, the
Speaker 1: pads CEU has vegetables in it. So I say, I say,
Speaker 1: excuse me, um, this has vegetables. I'm sorry. I ordered
Speaker 1: everything without vegetables, can you Uh he's up, so sorry,
Speaker 1: I'll make that for you again. Okay. So now it's
Speaker 1: ten more minutes because they're busy, and I'm looking as
Speaker 1: he comes back, I go to put I'm looking at
Speaker 1: the uh, the pads, the drunken noodles, and I see
Speaker 1: it as a basil in it. Now I don't like basil.
Speaker 1: I don't like the taste of basil. I don't like basil. Okay,
Speaker 1: So so I didn't realize the basil. So I put
Speaker 1: the food back in the bag and I get in
Speaker 1: the car and like I'm gonna eat them in the car.
Speaker 1: Because I was hungry, and I opened up the drunken
Speaker 1: noodles as basil in it. So I go all the
Speaker 1: way back in the rain in the alley, way up
Speaker 1: the thing, and I said, excuse me him, sorry to
Speaker 1: bother you again, but the drunken noodles has basil. He says, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: it comes with basil. I said, I know, but I
Speaker 1: ordered everything without vegetables. And he says, I know what
Speaker 1: he's gonna say. He says, you could try. Basil is
Speaker 1: not a vegetable. No, he doesn't say that. It gets worse.
Speaker 1: He says, it comes with basil. I said, I know,
Speaker 1: but I ordered it without vegetables. Basil is a vegetable, right,
Speaker 1: He says, oh yes, But if I don't put the
Speaker 1: basil in, it tastes different. And I said, I know.
Speaker 1: I don't like basil. I don't want it to taste
Speaker 1: like basil. That's why I ordered it with no vegetables.
Speaker 1: He goes, but the recipe calls for basil. I said,
Speaker 1: not my recipe. I don't want to taste of basil
Speaker 1: in my drunken noodles. He said, well, next time, you
Speaker 1: have to specify. I did specify. I said, no vegetables, sir,
Speaker 1: is not, by the way. I wasn't yelling at him.
Speaker 1: I said, can we just clarify? Is basil vegetable? Yes? Well,
Speaker 1: then no vegetables doesn't mean no vegetables except the one
Speaker 1: you think is important for the taste of the problem
Speaker 1: is basil is really a spice or it's a garnish.
Speaker 1: It's not really a vegetable. And and I mean it
Speaker 1: has a little bit of taste to it, of course,
Speaker 1: But why don't you give the guy a break? I
Speaker 1: did give him a break. I was nice about it.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna this doesn't sound nice. It sounds very
Speaker 1: very abrupt. Okay, I'm saying calm, calmer than certainly describing
Speaker 1: it because I'm like mayby soft herbs such as basil, parsley, chives,
Speaker 1: and deal they are all considered vegetables. All right, I'm
Speaker 1: online loud looking it up. My point is I was
Speaker 1: very nice about it, so I don't say anything to him.
Speaker 1: I don't ask him for anything. He comes out and
Speaker 1: he says, I'm sorry about the basil, and he gives
Speaker 1: me a card which he signed and said, off your
Speaker 1: next order. Wow, that's some expensive fucking basil on the
Speaker 1: part of the restaurant. You know what, it couldn't be
Speaker 1: nicer and I will be going back there. Okay. The
Speaker 1: point is it isn't up to the chef to determine
Speaker 1: what he finds to be important. Well, that's debatable because
Speaker 1: you go to some restaurants, David Brodie, and you go
Speaker 1: to some places and they tell you to go take
Speaker 1: a long walk off a short pier if you don't
Speaker 1: like the way they cook. I mean, you know, there
Speaker 1: was a place that I guess, our good friend Mark.
Speaker 1: There was a place that our good friend Mark for
Speaker 1: Gione opened up in the North Jersey and uh, this place,
Speaker 1: you know, he wanted to make like his Mark for
Speaker 1: Gione signature places. They were you know again, I don't
Speaker 1: want to speak out of turn here, but uh, it
Speaker 1: was a restaurant what we do here on the Brook Boys,
Speaker 1: but we just kind of but basically this restaurant was awesome.
Speaker 1: And he he is a master chef. He's won awards.
Speaker 1: He's James Beard, I guess, and he won if you
Speaker 1: google him, yeah, if you google him. He's known for
Speaker 1: some certain dishes, signature things, and he loves to make
Speaker 1: the melody of tastes in your mouth. Just yeah, just
Speaker 1: all like burst with different flavors and all go togethers
Speaker 1: and compliments. So he has got a restaurant, a beautiful
Speaker 1: called restaurant for you on awesome place in Lower Manhattan
Speaker 1: and tried back how he named it. If if you
Speaker 1: can actually get a chance to go there, you should um.
Speaker 1: And then he did this restaurant concept something similar up
Speaker 1: in North Jersey, and what ended up happening was the
Speaker 1: people's palates they're a little bit more mainstream. So I'm
Speaker 1: guessing again this is now just me, this is hearsay.
Speaker 1: The menu items had well, I saw the menu items
Speaker 1: had changed from the day that they opened the restaurant
Speaker 1: to several months later, because I went back and a
Speaker 1: lot of the stuff that we had ordered in this
Speaker 1: first couple of days were no longer there, or had
Speaker 1: been kind of I'm not gonna say watered down, but
Speaker 1: kind of marginalized or neutralized or moved toward a more
Speaker 1: mainstream feel. They removed the fanciness to it, and that
Speaker 1: was because that area, that neighborhood dictated, hey, we don't
Speaker 1: want fancy ship, and they probably we got sick of
Speaker 1: people ordering stuff and like David, A bunch of David
Speaker 1: Brodie's in the restaurant say I don't want, I don't want,
Speaker 1: I don't want to. You know, I could just picture
Speaker 1: all David Brodie's like all remember the I'm Slim Shady,
Speaker 1: I'm the real slim Shitty video, And it's all Eminem's,
Speaker 1: Marshall Mathers, it's all David Brodie in your restaurant. Restaurant
Speaker 1: full of Brodie's that are just pretty much saying I
Speaker 1: can't have I don't want that. You know what, No,
Speaker 1: I can't do this, And basically it changes the complexion
Speaker 1: of the entire dish and to a point where you
Speaker 1: pretty much throw your hands up in the air, are
Speaker 1: and and say like like like Brodie is something that
Speaker 1: it's like you give up. You give up on the
Speaker 1: situation you can because you're like so you change it,
Speaker 1: You alter and you change the you know what what
Speaker 1: your offerings are, and you adapt so that an entire
Speaker 1: neighbor hood can dictate that. See what I'm saying is
Speaker 1: you go to some of these fancy places and they'll
Speaker 1: tell you that no. You know, the waiter will give
Speaker 1: you push back. I wonder if you've ever encountered that
Speaker 1: have you. We are a restaurant with a way to
Speaker 1: will be like, yeah, the chef really suggests this and
Speaker 1: we really don't do it, and they pretty much flat
Speaker 1: out tell you know. I went to one restaurant I
Speaker 1: told this story in a town nearby. It was called
Speaker 1: something Street was the name of the restaurant on a
Speaker 1: Bourbon street, and I don't remember. There was something something
Speaker 1: like that, and they didn't advertise this policy. But when
Speaker 1: I got there, uh, there was something like, you know,
Speaker 1: they like you could do a different side order, so
Speaker 1: like if you ordered steak, he got potatoes and whatever,
Speaker 1: corn or whatever. But I wanted something that wasn't the steak,
Speaker 1: and that particular dish, let's say, came with asparagus and
Speaker 1: something else. So I said, hey, listen, instead of the asparagus,
Speaker 1: can I just get mashed potatoes? And he went, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: no substitutions, But we don't do something stitutions. You look
Speaker 1: at the bottom of the menu, the bottom of the menu,
Speaker 1: in little font it said no substitutions. So I said, well,
Speaker 1: I'm not looking to get like spaghetti, you know, like
Speaker 1: I just I want one side dish instead of the other. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we can't do that. I said, So you can't scoop
Speaker 1: potatoes onto my plate instead of asparagus. No, the menu
Speaker 1: was all put together. There's a lot of thought that
Speaker 1: goes into the menu. I said, well, you didn't put
Speaker 1: it on. I thought this was a place that wanted customers.
Speaker 1: I don't want asparagus, so I can see what you
Speaker 1: can have it without the asparagus. I go, but you won't.
Speaker 1: You won't put potatoes on my plate. Well would you have?
Speaker 1: What about for an up charge? Was it a price thing? No,
Speaker 1: I asked that question. I said, if the potatoes are
Speaker 1: more expensive, charge me. Well that I that I agree
Speaker 1: with you. The chef doesn't make exceptions. I agree. Said great,
Speaker 1: we'll never be back. And so I said, you know what,
Speaker 1: we have appetizers. We'd already had the appetizers. My wife
Speaker 1: looked at me, like, let's go. We packed up the
Speaker 1: appetizers and went for dinner up the block. We left
Speaker 1: left in the middle. But don't, no, don't even bring
Speaker 1: the entrees. Forget it. We'll take the appetizers. No, thank you.
Speaker 1: And you guess what. Within within like six months, they're
Speaker 1: out of business. They're gone. Yeah, Well that I agree
Speaker 1: with you with because it's separate to me, chef, well
Speaker 1: know to me that is okay, So they're I kind
Speaker 1: of see what they're saying on this one, but I
Speaker 1: don't agree with it because if you want to sub
Speaker 1: out a car for a vegetable, you should be able
Speaker 1: to do that or vice vice versa. What you did, Um,
Speaker 1: I just think that the chef is thinking, well, this
Speaker 1: pairs well with that, So that great. So my month
Speaker 1: pairs well with the food if you would give it
Speaker 1: to me. Yes, So with with that, I agree with you,
Speaker 1: like you should be able to sub out certain things
Speaker 1: because you don't like if you're going to separate, separate
Speaker 1: restaurant if the food is exists on its own and
Speaker 1: your plate with and co exists with another food on
Speaker 1: the plate. Yes, However, when you ask them to change
Speaker 1: the specific dish because you don't like to wear the
Speaker 1: chicken is marinated or you don't like that, they absolutely.
Speaker 1: That's where I that's where I have to disagree with you.
Speaker 1: But and I'm sure that you've done that as well.
Speaker 1: And it's the kitchen. It depends. It depends on the place.
Speaker 1: Like I think I told you, we went to, Um,
Speaker 1: we went to Seasons fifty two. I told you that
Speaker 1: we had some problems there. But one of the things
Speaker 1: I did it was like it was like a some
Speaker 1: kind of chicken dish that had like it was chickens
Speaker 1: stacked with something else on top. And I changed the thing.
Speaker 1: I didn't want to red pepper o I think, and
Speaker 1: they did. It was like, oh, no problem. But if
Speaker 1: they have to start from if they have to start
Speaker 1: from scratch and change the ingredients in the middle, oh
Speaker 1: I wouldn't do that. Then then change because the chef
Speaker 1: is also, if you think about it, has his palate,
Speaker 1: his canvas, and he's trying to paint a picture with
Speaker 1: his food, and there's a complexion to the food, so
Speaker 1: you're altering it completely with different ingredients. Speaking of chefs,
Speaker 1: a good chef will always taste their food. Would you agree? Okay?
Speaker 1: And I watched The Bear, which is a fantastic show.
Speaker 1: Fantastic show. I think it's on Hulu. The Bear fantastic um. However,
Speaker 1: what some chefs do, and what I did when I
Speaker 1: worked in kitchens, is you taste. You taste the food
Speaker 1: with a spoon or whatever, and then you you put
Speaker 1: the spoon in the sink. How else would you do
Speaker 1: times or sometimes they taste it with a spoon and
Speaker 1: they'll ask another person in the kitchen to taste it,
Speaker 1: and sometimes the spoon goes back in the big pot
Speaker 1: of sauce. I don't need I've worked in restaurants. I've
Speaker 1: seen it, but I I don't need. Is it okay
Speaker 1: if it's the chef? Is it okay if it's the chef?
Speaker 1: Because what happens is they're making sauce, right, and they
Speaker 1: taste it. They need a little more pepper, and they'll
Speaker 1: put the pepper in and what do they do. They
Speaker 1: gotta taste it again. They don't go for another spoon.
Speaker 1: They're like, fucking, I'm cooking it. The heat will kill
Speaker 1: the germs. Is that okay? No, it's very unsavory. I
Speaker 1: don't suggest it, and I don't want to know if
Speaker 1: you did it. I see this is one TI what well?
Speaker 1: He ordered a long Island ice taste scary, And the
Speaker 1: bartender was like, I wonder if I put enough of
Speaker 1: whatever and they took a sip of it first, would
Speaker 1: that be okay? Alcohol kills germs. But they don't do that.
Speaker 1: You know what they do? They put a straw in
Speaker 1: it cut, cut the top of the straw with their
Speaker 1: their top fingers so the liquid doesn't leave the bottom,
Speaker 1: and then they take it from the bottom of the straw.
Speaker 1: They let they take their finger away from the top hole,
Speaker 1: and then they it goes into their mouth. That's how
Speaker 1: they tested. I see it every time. Yeah they don't.
Speaker 1: They just sipped it. No, no, unacceptable. Bartender has worked
Speaker 1: in the back. They would, They absolutely would, They probably would.
Speaker 1: I don't want to know what goes on in the kitchen.
Speaker 1: All I know is you were the kitchens. You were
Speaker 1: told to pick stuff up off the floor. No I
Speaker 1: was not. No I was not. No I was. I'm
Speaker 1: not saying where you were, not the place you always
Speaker 1: talk about the other place. No, couldn't. I couldn't do
Speaker 1: it with a good conscious. Anyway, we're talking about altering food. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm a might not the biggest defender of that right now.
Speaker 1: The fact that I'm on this crazy die it that
Speaker 1: I have to you. You're You're like Sally from when
Speaker 1: Harry met Sally. When we I've been in a restaurants,
Speaker 1: You're like, uh, yeah, can I have the caesar salad
Speaker 1: with no dressing and with chicken but the chicken has
Speaker 1: to be grilled, but not in butter. You can maybe
Speaker 1: like boil it. I'll take it boil, but I can't
Speaker 1: have any butter or oil. Maybe a table spoilt, but
Speaker 1: I can't have any oil at all, So make it water. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're crazy about that. Get get order a dish. Pretend
Speaker 1: we're in a restaurant. Order a dish. Go ahead, ask
Speaker 1: all the questions. Let's let's let the slices in on
Speaker 1: the program. I'm in this crazy diet right now, so
Speaker 1: how can I help you? What would you like? What
Speaker 1: would you like? Would you like to order your dinner?
Speaker 1: You ready to order? Yeah? Alright, So I'm on this
Speaker 1: crazy diet right now. And this is gonna sound weird,
Speaker 1: but I'm not allowed to have any carbs or sugar
Speaker 1: or oh that's fine. Sorry here that all the time.
Speaker 1: And um, I'm not allowed to have any any butter
Speaker 1: or oil. So I'm gonna ask butter or oil? No,
Speaker 1: I heard you, I'm playing the waiter. Okay, yeah, no
Speaker 1: butter or oil. So I would like to know is
Speaker 1: there anything that I can eat on this menu that
Speaker 1: the kitchen maybe be able to prepare specially for me
Speaker 1: that won't require butter or oil. Sir, this is a
Speaker 1: five star restaurant. Get the funk out. That was very abrupt. Well,
Speaker 1: sometimes you gotta be don't come into my fancy restaurant
Speaker 1: and expect us to cook it just for you. It's
Speaker 1: one thing you don't want asparagus. You don't want anything. Hey,
Speaker 1: we have just a couple of talkbacks this week, and
Speaker 1: then I know you have a story. Should we get
Speaker 1: the So if you are, we need to also visit
Speaker 1: the fucking seventy seven hot line? What happened to that one?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we have to check that we haven't checked
Speaker 1: it in a f you seven. We'll do that one
Speaker 1: next week. Okay, we'll check that all right, you got it?
Speaker 1: All right. But and you've been listening on I Heart radio.
Speaker 1: You know that you have this cool little feature which
Speaker 1: just gives you the advantage over Spotify and Apple and
Speaker 1: any other way you will listen to this podcast, and
Speaker 1: that is there's a microphone there. So on the microphone,
Speaker 1: hold it down and give us a talk back. This
Speaker 1: is one that just came in. We have not previewed
Speaker 1: any of this ship and it scares me. So let's
Speaker 1: just roll it with it. Shall we Hi Brooklyn boys.
Speaker 1: This is Sam from Hershey, Pennsylvania. UM just wanted to
Speaker 1: comment on the situation with the girl then mowing her
Speaker 1: ex boyfriend after cheating. Coming from someone who was in
Speaker 1: an eight year relationship and just got cheated on, UM,
Speaker 1: I kind of can't do that. I'm just walking away
Speaker 1: without it and it is what it is. But Bertie
Speaker 1: and scary nice. Well she's right twice. Well, yeah, you
Speaker 1: goes back to that goes back to our coworker, your
Speaker 1: coworker on the morning show who demanded money back for
Speaker 1: things when he cheated on her. She wanted like uber
Speaker 1: money back, right, she wanted all the money's and uh
Speaker 1: he actually sent some of it back. Is another talkback.
Speaker 1: This thing is very fidgety today. What's up with that?
Speaker 1: What's up with that? Is calling from Grand Rapids. I'm
Speaker 1: commenting on the old man walking through Brodie's backyard. That
Speaker 1: is insane. That is trespassing and people have been shot
Speaker 1: for less scary. If you think you would be so friendly,
Speaker 1: what if an older man just climbed into your BMW
Speaker 1: would you just look at him and say, hey man,
Speaker 1: you need a ride. That's a great point. It's a
Speaker 1: great point, but there's a big difference between acres and
Speaker 1: acres of property in a forest and my BMW. I
Speaker 1: don't have acres and acres and forest. I have my property.
Speaker 1: He walked through the forest and then ended up in
Speaker 1: my backyard. Second, the tone that's on the Big Show
Speaker 1: is a little bit of a turnoff. There should be
Speaker 1: no man bashing. Okay, Tommy Lee is packing, and if
Speaker 1: it was the the way around and anybody was saying
Speaker 1: anything negative about any appendant john a woman, it would
Speaker 1: be unacceptable and it would never happen. Take care all right,
Speaker 1: talking about uh my our discussion on Tommy Lee releasing
Speaker 1: more Dick pics on his social media, and uh I
Speaker 1: had to say it was impressive, but then it was
Speaker 1: marginalized by some of the women on the show and
Speaker 1: other members of the show. So well, I think said
Speaker 1: that that gentleman. First of all, Brodie and Scary all
Speaker 1: day love that. But I think I think he brings
Speaker 1: up a good point. He said, if it was the
Speaker 1: other way around, people would get offended. I think if
Speaker 1: we talked about the women on the morning shows penis size,
Speaker 1: they would be offended. I agree completely. I kind of
Speaker 1: see what he's saying if it's one way but not
Speaker 1: the other, and you're like, okay, Upton, her booms aren't
Speaker 1: that big? I've seen better. We said that it would
Speaker 1: be like, oh, so it's okay, it's okay to talk
Speaker 1: about guys, but not the thing that's his boy, that's
Speaker 1: his point. It wasn't. It wasn't like looking at a
Speaker 1: guy's bulge and commenting on it. Tommy Lee puts his
Speaker 1: penis on uh Twitter or Instagram whatever? Uh he's asking
Speaker 1: for commentary, of course he is. So I feel like
Speaker 1: it's okay to give commentary right once somebody asks, but
Speaker 1: don't say understate it. That's that was my whole point.
Speaker 1: Don't understate it. It's it's the Morning Show. I've seen
Speaker 1: fifteen inch penises and a twelve thirteen inches and't that impressive?
Speaker 1: God bless him? Anyway, Moving on, who's looking at fifteen
Speaker 1: inch penises? Uh? Me and the shower when I'm alone?
Speaker 1: What does that look like? Jesus well, I'll show you later.
Speaker 1: Boom boys, no offense. Alve Brody, looking through his phone
Speaker 1: trying to find the difference between Zales, Jared and Kay
Speaker 1: was exactly like my friends looking through his phone find
Speaker 1: whatever he was and didn't find the answer. But you're
Speaker 1: not flamboyant, not a flamblank guy. Flamboyant flamboyant or that
Speaker 1: cross through. So one of us as well, that guy
Speaker 1: standing right at the end there said like he was
Speaker 1: scrolling through his phone kind of If you don't know
Speaker 1: Mike Frances, google and watch him. So he was on
Speaker 1: television and the radio at the same time, and he
Speaker 1: was mumbling to himself and there was no one else talking.
Speaker 1: It wasn't like Scary was filling in the blanks for him.
Speaker 1: So what I did was similar, but he was just okay,
Speaker 1: all right, all right, Yeah, we have laws. We don't
Speaker 1: edit out the laws. That's another thing. Should we should
Speaker 1: we make this a more polished podcast and edit out
Speaker 1: dead spaces and we could do that, but I just
Speaker 1: think it sounds I don't know, it sounds unauthentic. Let
Speaker 1: me ask you a question. Should we take out the
Speaker 1: twenty minute boring asked part of the show where you
Speaker 1: talked about espresso ten minutes ago. He's kidding from you
Speaker 1: don't hear it? Then Scary took it out. He's kidding,
Speaker 1: it never happened. No, take it out Okay, it's scared.
Speaker 1: In referenced episode to six, Brody just asked a question,
Speaker 1: when is your last day? I'm assuming it's Brody's asking
Speaker 1: when he's the last day of your dr fat loss.
Speaker 1: Your response was before I go on vacation that following Friday.
Speaker 1: When is that? I don't know when you going, Vick.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not that important, but man makes it clear.
Speaker 1: We're listeners by the time, by the time getting very techtcal.
Speaker 1: By the time you hear this, I'm already gone. Okay,
Speaker 1: So Friday, February, February, February sev Yeah, February, which is
Speaker 1: like tomorrow. If you're hearing this on I hope, I
Speaker 1: hope we to hear the full story on this podcast
Speaker 1: scary at some point. I hope so too. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: whole trip Fication story. Hey, what's up, Brooklyn boys, it's Brandon. Uh.
Speaker 1: This is in regards to Rhodie. You said, thank you,
Speaker 1: my birthday was four days ago, and you took your
Speaker 1: wife's birthday thunder. I think that's like a five out
Speaker 1: of ten, honestly, because when you're in the moment and
Speaker 1: someone's talking to you like that, you don't really think
Speaker 1: about it. Kind of like how when someone at the
Speaker 1: movie theater says, like, you know, enjoy your movie, and
Speaker 1: you say you too, You're like, oh, ship, you know,
Speaker 1: it's just it just happened. I don't think it's a
Speaker 1: b Yeah, he's right, yeah, he's right. Like well, you know,
Speaker 1: like when when when you say to people, uh you
Speaker 1: respond or you say, uh, um, hey, listen, uh have
Speaker 1: a good day at work tomorrow, they go you too,
Speaker 1: and I go, I'm not working right, yeah, right yeah,

Speaker 1: And the guy, the guy they had messed up my
Speaker 1: tig to go over three times. And at first the
Speaker 1: manager gave me a card out of his personal supply
Speaker 1: of cards, and he said, here, I'm gonna give you this.
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry for your trouble. And he he put
Speaker 1: his name on it and and he signed it his
Speaker 1: name and the date, and he because it was a
Speaker 1: black little uh coop like a business card, but it
Speaker 1: was a coupon. It was a business card size and
Speaker 1: had a white box on it, and in the white
Speaker 1: box he signed his name. He said, this is good
Speaker 1: for an entree on appetizer next time you come in.
Speaker 1: It's good. It's good any time you want to use it.
Speaker 1: And then when when did he give it you? When
Speaker 1: did he give it to you? It doesn't expire, that's
Speaker 1: not part of the story. So so I said, okay, great.
Speaker 1: He said he used anytime, and I said, sir, that
Speaker 1: that's great. And then he went and got my order
Speaker 1: and they messed it up again, and that's when he said,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm gonna just get and he gave
Speaker 1: me a hundred dollars in gift cards, but I still
Speaker 1: had the coupon he gave me after the first mistake
Speaker 1: or so, my buddy Jeff and I were going out
Speaker 1: to dinner and he I said, well, why don't we
Speaker 1: go to Friday's. It's over, it's near where we have
Speaker 1: to go. H We were going somewhere to his mechanic,
Speaker 1: I said, oh, it is a Friday's right there. Why
Speaker 1: don't we go there? This's great. I said, I have
Speaker 1: a coupon for a free entree appetizer. I'll either get
Speaker 1: three months row sticks, i' figure out what I want,
Speaker 1: but let's go there. He's all right, great, so we
Speaker 1: go and there's a host gentleman there. Uh. Look he
Speaker 1: wasn't a kid working there. He looked like he was
Speaker 1: in his thirties or forties, but he was working the
Speaker 1: door in a very loud blazer on very loud blazer.
Speaker 1: So I was like, oh, that guy's the host. Whatever, okay,
Speaker 1: So he shows me to the table. We sit down
Speaker 1: at the booth and we're maybe from the host to stand.
Speaker 1: We're not very far into the restaurant, and the waitress
Speaker 1: comes over, a very nice waitress, and she says, Hi,
Speaker 1: can I get guess on the drink? And I said, uh, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, we'd like some drinks. And I said, listen
Speaker 1: before we order, I have this coupon and it says
Speaker 1: good for a free appetizer or entree, and it says
Speaker 1: I can use it on anything except like the ambo
Speaker 1: basket of appetis of course the one that's the most expensive, right,
Speaker 1: she says, yep, I said, can you do me a
Speaker 1: favor before I order something that I wouldn't because you know,
Speaker 1: when I figured scary, you know this, when it's free,
Speaker 1: you might take a chance on something you wouldn't normally eat,
Speaker 1: absolutely or something more expensive, right, right? So I was like,
Speaker 1: you know, right, exactly exactly the most expensive, you can
Speaker 1: because an idiotic coupon free appetizer or entree. U right,
Speaker 1: helloa's getting the getting the appetizer at that point, right.
Speaker 1: So I said, do me a favor. Can you just
Speaker 1: check to make sure that this is good? I said,
Speaker 1: it was signed by your general manager about a year ago.
Speaker 1: There's no expiration date. But before I place an order
Speaker 1: for something more expensive maybe or larger, I take leftovers home.
Speaker 1: I don't want to like order and you like the coupon.
Speaker 1: I love how you're teeing this up because I know
Speaker 1: this is just gonna go horribly bad in another My
Speaker 1: stories come on never So she comes back. She says, yeah,
Speaker 1: I spoke to my manager. It's all good. I said, okay, great,
Speaker 1: no problem. Con from shore, I ordered the mozarella sticks. Jeff,
Speaker 1: what is what he wants to order? Comes back for
Speaker 1: the entree order and I said, is what would you
Speaker 1: like fear entre? I said, you know what, since I'm
Speaker 1: getting a free entree, I will have the rack of
Speaker 1: ribs and shrimp. The of course, which was the second
Speaker 1: most expensive thing on the man Dover soul. You don't
Speaker 1: know the fish. There was a fish dish that was
Speaker 1: more money but I think I think this was like
Speaker 1: thirty four dollars whatever, and I've never had the ribs
Speaker 1: and the shrimp, have the halibut, just for the halibt
Speaker 1: HElib Yeah, so I ordered. I ordered the ribs and
Speaker 1: the shrimp and the mozzarella sticks and the mozarell sticks,
Speaker 1: like twelve dollars. By the way, I have a hunch
Speaker 1: where this is going. Already ahead, okay, So we ordered
Speaker 1: the food, said we get to check. Everything's great. She's
Speaker 1: a great waitress whatever. And she comes back. She was
Speaker 1: here you go. I said, great, I said, you took
Speaker 1: off the used the coupon. Yep, absolutely where this going?
Speaker 1: She took off? Okay, okay, So so I saw, I
Speaker 1: look at the check and she took off. So it's like,
Speaker 1: I call her back and I said, hey, listen, I'm
Speaker 1: really sorry to bother you. But the coupon that I
Speaker 1: gave her, because I'd already given to the coupon was
Speaker 1: for a free entre or appetizer, and I would like
Speaker 1: to use it on the entree. As we discuss the
Speaker 1: thing is, she says. So, she says, don't they She says,
Speaker 1: hold on, I'll double check. He must the wrung it wrong.
Speaker 1: So she goes back to the back of the restaurant.
Speaker 1: She comes back, she says, my manager says, the coupon
Speaker 1: is for the appetizer, not the entree. I said, now,
Speaker 1: wait a minute. I checked with you beforehand. I asked
Speaker 1: you to ask a manager, and I only ordered the
Speaker 1: very expensive ribs and shrimp because you told me just well,
Speaker 1: I'll have to go. I'll go ask him. So the
Speaker 1: manager comes over, guy named Louise, and he says, can
Speaker 1: I help you, sir? Yeah, you took all the mozarella sticks.
Speaker 1: But I had a coupon for a free entree or appetizer,
Speaker 1: and I specifically asked if he used for the entree. No,
Speaker 1: So there's the the coupons for an appetizer. I said
Speaker 1: it right there. It says it on the coupon and
Speaker 1: it was signed by your GM. I don't know if
Speaker 1: he's still here or not, but at the time, the
Speaker 1: GM signed it and it said good for And I said,
Speaker 1: that's why I asked. I asked, because it's appetizing. What
Speaker 1: if you didn't order the mozarella sticks and you just
Speaker 1: ordered the ribs, I guarantee you He would have been like, oh, okay,
Speaker 1: Entre No, he said no. He says, sir, we don't
Speaker 1: have coupons that's say entre or appetizer. I said, I
Speaker 1: don't care if you do or not today. But when
Speaker 1: I had a problem, I got the coupon. I gave
Speaker 1: it and I asked I did all them, I did
Speaker 1: everything to avoid this. He says, sir, I'll go get
Speaker 1: your coupon improve it to you. So he goes in
Speaker 1: the back. He comes back with the the black coupon
Speaker 1: and he puts it on the table. He says, look
Speaker 1: right there, good for one appetizer. I looked at him.
Speaker 1: I said, you are absolute right, sir. That coupon says
Speaker 1: group for one appetizer is the problem. The wrinkled up
Speaker 1: in my wallet for a year card that had the
Speaker 1: manager's signature in the white box. This isn't the one
Speaker 1: I gave you. So your bait and switch isn't gonna
Speaker 1: work on me. Go in the back and get the
Speaker 1: coupon I gave you that said free appetite. Don't go
Speaker 1: and get a coupon that fits. What a fucking asshole?
Speaker 1: I said, Are you kidding to me what he lied
Speaker 1: to you? He fucking tried to. He tried to, he
Speaker 1: beat and switched you. So he says, all the coupons
Speaker 1: are the same. I said, no not, because the one
Speaker 1: that was in my pocket had the car. The corners
Speaker 1: were all fraid and I had a had a sharpie
Speaker 1: signature in blue and it said entree or appetizer and
Speaker 1: I confirmed it with your waitress screenshot before he gave
Speaker 1: it to a motherfucker's So. So the guy in the
Speaker 1: the defender of fucking t g I Friday's Justice, he
Speaker 1: is he one of the co owners of the place.
Speaker 1: Kat of the guy, I said, I said, you're either
Speaker 1: gonna take my entree off the meal or I'm not
Speaker 1: paying for the check because I cleared this beforehand. So
Speaker 1: the manager in the so, the guy in the loud
Speaker 1: coat comes over and he says, can I help you?
Speaker 1: I said, yeah, this guy is bait and switching me
Speaker 1: on the coupon. I had a coupon. He says, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm the one who approved it. I said, are you
Speaker 1: a manager? Yes, I am. I said, well, when I said, well,
Speaker 1: when when you I asked for the manager, she went
Speaker 1: and got this guy and I pointed at him like
Speaker 1: he was nobody. I go you were right there the
Speaker 1: whole time. She's like, oh, I didn't see him over there,
Speaker 1: I said. So he says, Louise, I approved the coupon,
Speaker 1: and that's not the coupon he gave me. He goes
Speaker 1: go get the coupon he handed him with the check.
Speaker 1: So Luise goes in the back with the coupon. He goes, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm terribly sorry. What a fun agredient. So I said great,
Speaker 1: I said, so, I said, you know what, I would
Speaker 1: like my Mozarla sticks for free now too, because I'm aggravated.
Speaker 1: And he goes, yeah, you're absolutely right. I'm terribly sorry.
Speaker 1: So I got the whole meal for free. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: And the irony is I got the coupon because they
Speaker 1: fucked up Mike to go on a three times and
Speaker 1: they couldn't even get there and the guy comes out
Speaker 1: with a different coupon. You would have been upset. I wouldn't.
Speaker 1: I'm you fry an egg on my head right now.

Speaker 1: back and get the coupon, and he gave what he said.
Speaker 1: He goes, that's not the coupon he gave him, Dude,
