Hey, everybody, welcome to hold Up. It's a 0:00:38.840 --> 0:00:40.920 the show that's a lot about nothing. It's a big 0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:44.240 arguments about small things. I am one of your co host. 0:00:44.280 --> 0:00:46.080 My name is Josh Johnson. I'm a writer for The 0:00:46.159 --> 0:00:49.040 Daily Show, and I am joined by don't say slan. 0:00:54.240 --> 0:00:56.240 You could also make a noise and you say no, 0:00:56.360 --> 0:00:58.360 it's it's fine, it's fine. I didn't even say anything 0:00:58.400 --> 0:01:02.360 this time. I wasn't even said why you can't be 0:01:02.440 --> 0:01:08.760 like it's Josh, like you could do no, no, I'm 0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:11.039 with you, but instead you want to hate on my 0:01:11.480 --> 0:01:15.000 I wasn't hating. I didn't even say any face, my face. 0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:21.120 I was looking down. I felt it through computer daughter. Okay, 0:01:22.240 --> 0:01:24.360 I mean, if you say so, all right, But I 0:01:25.240 --> 0:01:30.520 really wasn't even thinking about this stuff. I I want 0:01:30.520 --> 0:01:35.440 to tell the people. M hmm. Today's topic is uh, 0:01:36.240 --> 0:01:38.840 it's something that I even know would be contentious. You know, 0:01:39.040 --> 0:01:41.120 we talked about small things. This is so small that 0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:43.680 I didn't I never even thought it would come up 0:01:43.680 --> 0:01:46.560 on the show. One of our listeners shout out to 0:01:47.120 --> 0:01:50.920 Misty on the YouTube's brought it to us, and um, 0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:53.720 we just didn't. You don't know till you know, you know, 0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:56.680 until you feel it coming on. It's one of those 0:01:56.680 --> 0:01:59.680 things you're like, oh, you know what, I do have 0:01:59.760 --> 0:02:05.080 a our friends on this, and that should be discussed. 0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:10.959 Today's topic is um, French Fries versus on your rings. Well, 0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:15.720 I think we should do is give the people one 0:02:15.880 --> 0:02:20.640 a moment to decide where they stand on this and 0:02:20.800 --> 0:02:25.720 to a moment to decide where they think we are 0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:35.359 going to stand. Play the music and we're back. Okay, yes, yes, 0:02:36.080 --> 0:02:39.800 what did you decide? What did I decide? Where do 0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:43.200 you think? Where did you land on this? Joshua? I 0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:47.520 am French Fries. I'm on your rings. I'm on your rings. 0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:53.920 I wrong again? Wow, wrong, wrong and wrong again. You 0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:55.800 said it because I didn't say it about you, because 0:02:55.840 --> 0:03:00.880 usually I'm the one telling you. Hey. But look, I 0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:06.760 can admit sometimes I'm not right, but I can easily 0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:11.799 admit when you're wrong. That comes to me quickly. Any old, 0:03:11.800 --> 0:03:15.240 any old person, okay, any any anyone that walks in 0:03:15.320 --> 0:03:20.519 nature doesn't anyone who takes breath can cut up a potato, 0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:25.880 m put it in hot grease. The onion ring you 0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:30.160 have to onon rings aren't offered everywhere. Onion rings. There's 0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:32.640 different levels right to the onion ring. Some of them 0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:36.800 are freshly made, some of them prepackaged. And also, I'm 0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:40.120 just gonna throw in there's something that's onion ring adjacent 0:03:40.200 --> 0:03:42.440 that I think I can throw in here, and I 0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:44.320 think people are really going to get on board with, 0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:51.560 and that is the blooming onion. Awesome blossom. You can 0:03:51.600 --> 0:03:55.680 throw that in there. If tomato soup can be fucking catchup, 0:03:56.400 --> 0:04:01.440 if tomato soup can be catch up. So, onion rings 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:04.680 were truly a red herring. Under rings were out here 0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:07.720 just standing in the way before you could be like 0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:11.480 blow blooming onion. No on Yours were not a red herring. 0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:15.280 There were a blue marlin. So you're telling me that 0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:21.599 you would rather in your life hot battered grease over 0:04:21.720 --> 0:04:28.840 onions then a delicious, freshly cut, crinkled or curly potato, 0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:33.520 because you're also giving up curly cues, all right, giving 0:04:33.600 --> 0:04:35.840 up getting giving up all types of fries, because we're 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:38.720 when we say French fries, I'm not talking about just 0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:43.680 one type of bagged, type of frozen type of fry. 0:04:43.760 --> 0:04:48.880 All right, you're giving up the home fries style. Okay, 0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:52.120 your hash on their mashed potatoes, make a make a decision. 0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:58.240 You're giving up the waffle fry. Fine, just keep saying 0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:01.080 wild things. Let's and this is what you don't know 0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:03.719 about me. I'm not really fan of the potato to 0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:08.039 start with. There are sometimes where you say things where 0:05:08.040 --> 0:05:12.760 I'm like, I can't help you that it's really interesting, 0:05:12.760 --> 0:05:18.080 like I love rice in regardless of my Irish last name, 0:05:18.120 --> 0:05:23.200 because you know Slavery. I'm not a huge potato fan. Um. 0:05:23.240 --> 0:05:25.360 I don't know when is that. I could tell you 0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:28.719 it's probably been more than a decade since I've eaten 0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:32.720 a mashed potato. I don't cook them at my house. 0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:35.159 I don't even I don't buy them. I don't buy 0:05:35.160 --> 0:05:36.680 the really eat it. The only time I have a 0:05:36.720 --> 0:05:40.240 potato really is if I'm eating like a potato chip 0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:45.320 or a French fry, and I don't really and so 0:05:46.000 --> 0:05:47.880 the only really French fries I really really like other 0:05:47.920 --> 0:05:53.719 crinkle cut fries with lowry seasoning, salt, okay, with hot wings. 0:05:53.920 --> 0:05:57.279 So unless that's happening like the shoe string potato or 0:05:57.320 --> 0:06:00.440 like the releasent one my my nemesis, they're off in 0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:03.840 an assult to adulthood. But like curly fries are good 0:06:03.880 --> 0:06:07.440 because there's always seasoned. But I always wonder whenever I 0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:10.359 see a curly fried, and I'm like, okay, but like 0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:13.520 where is the rest of because they can't all be 0:06:14.400 --> 0:06:17.200 like curly fries are interesting. I just don't understand how 0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:20.520 they make them. Um, I do understand people like people 0:06:20.600 --> 0:06:27.159 love potatoes, people love bread. I don't love those things. 0:06:27.640 --> 0:06:31.400 You you need, you need listen. I'm always surprised about 0:06:31.400 --> 0:06:34.799 how ether size when I don't eat the very starchy things. 0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:37.760 But there's other things that will make you fat, like genetics, 0:06:37.839 --> 0:06:42.719 Like I just this is genetics in your life. The 0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:46.120 love of a French fry. I would rather eat a tortia. 0:06:46.279 --> 0:06:50.159 I'd rather eat a slice tortilla deep fried. Cutting the 0:06:50.200 --> 0:06:53.440 strips potatoes have been bad. I'm not even saying that 0:06:53.440 --> 0:06:56.599 that's that's a crazy thing. I'm just saying, a French 0:06:56.680 --> 0:06:59.360 frid what you're missing out on in life? Because here's 0:06:59.360 --> 0:07:02.440 thinking I gave up onion rings today, I'd be given 0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:08.080 up something that I ate once, maybe a year, by accident, 0:07:08.560 --> 0:07:12.000 because it's just what was at the table. Everyone decided 0:07:12.040 --> 0:07:15.400 to split everything, and it's what somebody ordered. You know, 0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:19.520 Onion rings can be done badly. Yeah, they can be. 0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:22.760 I mean it also depends on you. Gotta get the 0:07:22.880 --> 0:07:27.040 right because this is where I gain or lose respect 0:07:27.120 --> 0:07:31.960 for somebody's onion ring. Okay, it all it exactly. It 0:07:32.040 --> 0:07:35.480 all starts around the fold, around the actual onion. Because 0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:38.960 if I bite in and there is a shoe string 0:07:39.000 --> 0:07:42.120 of onion for this big old onion ring and I've 0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:47.480 got nothing but a mouthful of corn meal, a We're 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:51.040 not friends anymore, you know, I hear you. I've also 0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:54.440 had French fries that were overdone, that we're underdone, that 0:07:54.520 --> 0:07:58.440 we're cold, that were you know, there's the steak fry. 0:07:58.640 --> 0:08:01.800 There's the you don't like a steak fry. It's just 0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:08.280 it's just too much potato. Sometimes you say it like 0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:11.000 you've really been through it with them, Like you said 0:08:11.040 --> 0:08:14.280 it like you try to give him a chance, And 0:08:14.320 --> 0:08:17.040 then I really did. But my mom got this KFC 0:08:17.240 --> 0:08:20.200 face and my brothers. One of my brother's homeboys used 0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:22.480 to work at KFC, so we would get hooked up 0:08:22.520 --> 0:08:24.640 all the time, and eventually I was just like, I 0:08:24.720 --> 0:08:30.560 can't eat a quarter of a potato. M So when 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:33.320 you give me the fries, So it's like, first of all, 0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:37.040 they only gave you like five fries. When you ate 0:08:37.080 --> 0:08:39.800 all of them, you ate an entire ps like you 0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:43.640 could put them together and they would make one whole potato. 0:08:44.040 --> 0:08:46.400 And sometimes when you're chewing our friends right, like, sometimes 0:08:46.400 --> 0:08:48.040 I'll just get stuck in your chest like you ever 0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:52.080 had that? That has happened, and that is terrifying, right, 0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:53.760 You're just like, that's what I'm like, I shouldn't be 0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:56.760 eating any of this stuff, clearly because I've never had 0:08:57.120 --> 0:09:01.000 I've never had a carrot get stuck. M gonna do 0:09:01.000 --> 0:09:04.520 you like that carried on slide side stipping slide These 0:09:04.520 --> 0:09:07.679 potatoes on the other hand, are just holding on all 0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:12.559 the way down. Yeah, I'm with you. I'm not saying 0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:16.600 either one of these are healthy. No. Also, sidebar, are 0:09:16.600 --> 0:09:20.560 you in a short sleeve shirt? What you wear a 0:09:20.559 --> 0:09:28.600 short sleeve shirt? Maybe let you see? No? Never what 0:09:31.040 --> 0:09:40.280 how dare my modesty? But for those of you that 0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:43.320 don't know, I have never seen Josh Johnson's elbows. So 0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:53.640 if you have Josh is a good Christian woman, You'll 0:09:53.640 --> 0:10:01.000 never see his ankles or his wrist. You will never 0:10:01.040 --> 0:10:04.880 see johnsh Johns's elbows or knees. France that the day, 0:10:05.240 --> 0:10:09.040 not ever, they got pants on at the beach. Yep, yep, 0:10:09.720 --> 0:10:12.400 even when we all when Daily Show went to Miami, 0:10:14.040 --> 0:10:19.200 I walked on the beach a sneakers and long pants. 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:21.320 I'm so glad I did to see you. I would 0:10:21.360 --> 0:10:25.679 have pushed you in here, not even high waters, like 0:10:25.840 --> 0:10:29.800 straight up ready to go. I would have I would 0:10:29.840 --> 0:10:32.040 have hit you with a clumbo went saying like it 0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:35.200 was a fucking snowball, and I would have gone back 0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:38.199 to my room. I would have put on some different jeans. 0:10:44.559 --> 0:10:46.480 Oh man. The whole time we were in Miami, I 0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:49.120 didn't have a whole anything. I had addressed. There was 0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:52.000 a whole back was out fucking posing for pictures of Trevor. 0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:55.079 My toes were never covered the entire time I was 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:59.360 in ever. See that's that's like, I mean, that's a 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:02.120 different discuss and for a different day. But like the 0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:05.000 fact that people are out here thinking that sandals or shoes, 0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:08.920 I cannot abide it. You know, I was born in 0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:11.120 Miami and we lived there, like I was born and raised, 0:11:11.400 --> 0:11:15.040 born in Miami, is raised land in Miami. So the 0:11:15.120 --> 0:11:19.000 fact that I was like, oh I'm home, bro tells 0:11:19.040 --> 0:11:21.959 us out, titties was out, knees was out, the whole, Like, 0:11:22.120 --> 0:11:25.000 come on, doctor. And I'm not even saying I don't 0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:29.640 like sandals. I'm just saying sometimes especially this is a 0:11:29.679 --> 0:11:33.280 New York thing, right, because New York is nasty. So 0:11:33.360 --> 0:11:38.079 sometimes something nasty will happen to somebody's foot in New 0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:41.440 York and they'll act like they had a shoe on. 0:11:42.600 --> 0:11:45.640 But I'll be like, no, you were in sandals, so 0:11:45.679 --> 0:11:47.880 when the rat ran over your foot, of course it 0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:52.319 touched your toes because you're not wearing shoes, right. That's 0:11:52.559 --> 0:11:55.000 just set yourself up for success, is all I'm saying. 0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:57.360 They also you have to pay more attention. I do 0:11:57.440 --> 0:12:03.120 people walking through New York who aren't paying attention. Yeah yeah, 0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:06.559 I mean, if you are walking in New York, it's sandals. 0:12:07.120 --> 0:12:09.280 At the bottom of your foot when you get done 0:12:09.320 --> 0:12:14.000 with your day is black. You're not wearing a shoe, 0:12:15.200 --> 0:12:18.640 then we're out with the elements. I understand Walmart feet 0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:24.360 is an issue, okay, because that's when my country asked 0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:26.800 friend told me, at the bottom of your feet are black. 0:12:27.000 --> 0:12:31.520 She calls it Walmart feet. And the first time she 0:12:31.520 --> 0:12:32.959 said I was like what she said, with your bottom 0:12:32.960 --> 0:12:34.960 of your feeting like people walking through a Walmart barefoot. 0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:40.120 And I was like, this is this. This is thank 0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:43.800 you Lagrange Georgia's because this is this is accurate. I 0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:46.200 love a sandal. I hate when closes. I mean you 0:12:46.240 --> 0:12:49.400 already know the listeners know this. I hate all of 0:12:49.400 --> 0:12:52.679 the ac culture amount that comes with fucking non warm weather. 0:12:53.200 --> 0:12:56.840 I have very pretty feet I have. I got pedicures 0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:58.640 with my mom and everybody go see her home girl 0:12:59.000 --> 0:13:01.720 so she could pick up her with and we are 0:13:01.760 --> 0:13:04.760 pedicures and we were showing our pedicures off and my 0:13:04.800 --> 0:13:07.280 mother was like, look at the baby toe. You never 0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:08.720 seen that full of a nail on the baby toe 0:13:08.800 --> 0:13:10.800 before and her and her own girls in there going 0:13:11.120 --> 0:13:15.960 no why why Everyone at the salon was amazed by 0:13:16.000 --> 0:13:21.240 the full whole nail on this baby toe and they 0:13:21.240 --> 0:13:24.680 were and I was like, my secret, I never wear 0:13:24.720 --> 0:13:27.080 pinching shoes because my mother, you know, she's like, if 0:13:27.120 --> 0:13:31.320 a shoe was cute, she's at fuck that, okay, And 0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:34.679 as soon as it gets warm, told her out, toes 0:13:34.800 --> 0:13:38.720 are out because that ends up happening with people. Because 0:13:38.720 --> 0:13:41.920 I'm not even like a foot person or anything, you 0:13:41.960 --> 0:13:43.480 know what I mean, I'm not grossed out by feet, 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:45.840 but I just don't think about feet, you know. But 0:13:45.880 --> 0:13:54.120 I will say, I will say for most people, you know, 0:13:54.120 --> 0:13:57.280 if you don't react, it didn't happen. I know. But 0:13:57.400 --> 0:14:13.480 I'm gonna react because the way you said, whoops onion rings, 0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:17.120 they have to have there's a time thing. If you 0:14:17.120 --> 0:14:21.960 don't get them right at the right time, it's they're 0:14:21.960 --> 0:14:26.160 gonna be soft. They're gonna be cold. But also like 0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:32.680 a cold French fry, oh, a cold French fry, as 0:14:32.680 --> 0:14:35.000 a punch in the tongue is a punch in the 0:14:35.000 --> 0:14:37.640 tongue and the in your back, Like I don't want 0:14:37.640 --> 0:14:39.680 to feel. I don't want anything that's not back tight, 0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:44.360 Like you're like, I gotta, I gotta finish these. But 0:14:44.440 --> 0:14:46.280 now my back is tight because I ate the cold 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:48.480 as French fries and ate too many of them because 0:14:48.480 --> 0:14:52.520 but also we have to remember is like I don't 0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:54.320 know what happened a couple of years ago, but like 0:14:54.440 --> 0:14:59.080 or tater talks started hitting restaurants and I was like, 0:15:00.120 --> 0:15:03.640 the funk was this? We I guess it got tired 0:15:03.640 --> 0:15:05.400 of selling them the elementary schools and all, and somebody 0:15:05.440 --> 0:15:09.160 was in a meeting like, yo, I'm telling you, we 0:15:09.280 --> 0:15:13.000 send this to one fucking funky restaurant, you know, some 0:15:13.160 --> 0:15:17.200 cool glass restaurant, and these ships will blow up. And 0:15:17.320 --> 0:15:21.040 now all over the South you get tattos and fucking poutine, 0:15:21.640 --> 0:15:24.800 tater tots and all kinds of ship and tater tots. 0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:28.120 You know what tater tots are. They're the hot dogs 0:15:28.160 --> 0:15:32.840 of potatoes. First of all, how dare you? No? No, no, no, 0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:34.840 that's how it happened. Do you ever see that show 0:15:34.880 --> 0:15:38.440 How It's Made? No? Maybe I have, I don't think so. 0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:40.960 Oh that show How It's Made. Josh was on that 0:15:41.000 --> 0:15:45.040 show How it Was Made? They I've never seen your 0:15:45.080 --> 0:15:50.400 four arms um on that show How It's Made. They 0:15:50.400 --> 0:15:53.000 were saying that tater talks came about because when they 0:15:53.040 --> 0:15:57.240 would make French fries there would be these off cuts 0:15:57.240 --> 0:16:01.280 and they were like throwing away all of this like 0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:03.880 off cut, and they're like, wait a minute, how do 0:16:03.920 --> 0:16:08.000 we utilize these because the pieces would be so small 0:16:08.080 --> 0:16:11.480 you couldn't turn them in anything else. And somebody was 0:16:11.520 --> 0:16:14.240 in some dude was like, hey, I found thinking about 0:16:14.280 --> 0:16:17.400 this and that's on tear tizes have got invented because 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:19.400 they were all the fucking off cuts of French fries. 0:16:19.920 --> 0:16:23.560 Would you consider the tater tide of French fry? Do 0:16:23.600 --> 0:16:26.120 you do? You really believe that? Because I understand the 0:16:26.200 --> 0:16:29.000 n pieces, I understand the origin. But now when people 0:16:29.000 --> 0:16:32.280 are specifically making tear totes under themselves, do you consider 0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:36.160 those French fries? I don't think so. You don't think so, 0:16:36.200 --> 0:16:39.360 because I feel like they fall in camp. They fall 0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:42.400 in camp, they fall in camp um. Because also, like 0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:45.160 you know, there's two different types of hashbrowns. There's the 0:16:45.200 --> 0:16:48.280 hash browns that are like the ones from a Awful House, 0:16:48.560 --> 0:16:50.760 and then there's the hashbrowns are the ones from McDonald's 0:16:51.000 --> 0:16:54.160 knowing to McDonald's are just flat just grown up tear 0:16:54.160 --> 0:16:57.840 talks basically, yeah, yeah, but I do. I do love 0:16:59.000 --> 0:17:04.040 love a McDonald's hash brown. When I was little, McDonald's 0:17:04.040 --> 0:17:07.199 hash brown and McDonald's fries were the only reasons that 0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:11.080 I like even looked at the McDonald's. I like the 0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:14.959 toy sometimes, but I wasn't a burger kid. Like like 0:17:15.280 --> 0:17:17.800 I grew to like hamburgers, but when I was a 0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:23.680 little kid, the hash browns and the French fries We're 0:17:23.720 --> 0:17:27.560 all I needed. You didn't like burgers as a kid, 0:17:28.160 --> 0:17:32.360 I thought they were fine, but I wasn't excited. I 0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:36.159 think we've all given the burger entirely too much credit 0:17:40.600 --> 0:17:43.280 because we act like that this is like this magnets, 0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:48.200 let's American fair food. I was also the saddest, Like 0:17:48.359 --> 0:17:52.520 we go to an American fair restaurant, You're just like, okay, 0:17:52.920 --> 0:17:57.159 a burger and then what like tell me because like, 0:17:57.240 --> 0:18:02.600 because America is just slapped ash fucking place, because America 0:18:02.680 --> 0:18:06.360 is a business and not a country. Truly. We talked 0:18:06.359 --> 0:18:09.080 about fucking freedom, but it's it's a fucking business more 0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:11.840 than anything. Remember as a kid, getting like one of 0:18:11.840 --> 0:18:15.120 those kids across the World books, and they would have 0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:21.480 kids in their traditional clothing of their country. And then 0:18:21.520 --> 0:18:25.399 it got to the United States and it was a 0:18:25.520 --> 0:18:28.440 kid is I because I was a boy and a girl. Right, 0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:35.879 So I'm looking at the traditional clothing of Poland, fucking uh, China, Japan, Mexico, 0:18:36.240 --> 0:18:40.720 Argentina right, showing you that, Russia showing you the traditional 0:18:40.760 --> 0:18:43.920 clothing of these countries and a little paint with water book. 0:18:44.720 --> 0:18:49.439 It gets to America fucking T shirt and jeans m hm, 0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:55.720 and I was like, we have nothing. We have nothing. 0:18:56.200 --> 0:18:57.879 So it's like that's why I think about it, Like 0:18:57.920 --> 0:19:01.679 America is just like because we're a fucking we invented 0:19:01.720 --> 0:19:07.520 the jeans, right, we invented dinnam right, just so it's like, okay, 0:19:07.520 --> 0:19:10.520 I get it. I'm sure we invented, but it's also 0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:14.880 we invented denam to protect people from machinery. And people 0:19:14.880 --> 0:19:17.399 are like, I love wearing jeans, and I'm like, bitch, 0:19:17.440 --> 0:19:21.240 you're in and like you're in a you're in protective gear. 0:19:21.320 --> 0:19:23.440 Like it's like and plus, jeans have never been comfortable. 0:19:23.680 --> 0:19:26.280 We can all calm down, right, So it's like American's 0:19:26.280 --> 0:19:28.679 a fucking business. It's like of course, it's like we 0:19:28.800 --> 0:19:31.640 have a few things, let's get them right, French fries 0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:34.480 and figured that the funk out the potato. The onon ring, 0:19:34.600 --> 0:19:39.200 it's like it's a delicate balance. I'll give its delicate balance, 0:19:39.840 --> 0:19:43.600 you know. Onion rings are like when you get a 0:19:43.640 --> 0:19:47.440 good onon ring with a little bit of give, crispy 0:19:47.680 --> 0:19:51.440 but a little bit of give. Also those are like 0:19:51.480 --> 0:19:55.960 a good solid onion in there. Yeah, yeah, something with 0:19:56.000 --> 0:19:58.920 a bit of crunch, right, because you've had onion rings 0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:00.920 where just like all these just been sitting in the 0:20:00.960 --> 0:20:03.480 window where the fund was the server, right, I'll tell 0:20:03.480 --> 0:20:06.359 you right now too. Sometimes you bite in and you 0:20:06.480 --> 0:20:09.240 get like this and this is maybe this this is 0:20:09.280 --> 0:20:13.159 maybe too specific of an experience, but I feel like 0:20:13.200 --> 0:20:16.040 this must happen other people. You bite into the onon ring, right, 0:20:16.560 --> 0:20:20.600 you get you get halfway through, and that's when you 0:20:20.680 --> 0:20:25.080 realize that, like the rest of the onion ring itself, 0:20:25.200 --> 0:20:28.600 the actual onion is like, now we go together. You're 0:20:28.640 --> 0:20:32.680 not biting through anything, and so now you've been through 0:20:32.720 --> 0:20:35.320 the crust of the onion ring. But the actual onion 0:20:35.520 --> 0:20:38.719 is tough. It's like a little slimy, and it's like 0:20:39.080 --> 0:20:41.719 it's not gonna break for you. What I don't like 0:20:41.840 --> 0:20:47.000 is when people don't peel enough of the onion, so 0:20:47.640 --> 0:20:51.159 you've got the flesh of an onion and then you 0:20:51.200 --> 0:20:53.879 get that papery part because it's all in the same 0:20:54.240 --> 0:20:59.520 yep yep. Yeah. And I and the just the anger 0:20:59.640 --> 0:21:02.480 I had one day these were good onion rings and 0:21:02.480 --> 0:21:08.919 this was the last one, and I was like, you 0:21:09.560 --> 0:21:13.520 mother fuckers. Why, But like also, but then there's like 0:21:13.560 --> 0:21:17.320 the burger King onion ring and just sometimes getting your friers. 0:21:17.400 --> 0:21:19.439 You're just like because one of my friends she was like, 0:21:19.520 --> 0:21:21.959 she only likes the burger King onion ring. And I 0:21:22.000 --> 0:21:23.760 was like, but it's not even like a real it's 0:21:23.760 --> 0:21:27.840 like an onion kind of someone's like onion paste in there. 0:21:27.920 --> 0:21:30.040 It's not like a real It's not like because you've 0:21:30.080 --> 0:21:31.960 got an onion ring in your friens before burger King, 0:21:33.640 --> 0:21:35.560 there's not it's not like it's a real I don't 0:21:35.560 --> 0:21:39.520 think it's like a real onion onion in there. And 0:21:39.600 --> 0:21:41.280 she was like, yeah, that's why I like it, because 0:21:41.320 --> 0:21:43.960 it's not a real onion. But it's like I because 0:21:44.000 --> 0:21:46.600 any time I see onion rings on the menu, I 0:21:46.680 --> 0:21:52.000 get excited. Every time I don't always order them because 0:21:52.040 --> 0:21:54.000 I'm just like, you know what, you need to calm that. 0:21:54.080 --> 0:21:57.280 You need to calm down. You need to calm down. 0:21:57.400 --> 0:22:01.040 I've been looking at the thing that's a thing on TikTok, like, hey, 0:22:01.880 --> 0:22:03.320 you got too much dipper on your chick. You need 0:22:03.320 --> 0:22:05.520 to relax. You need to relax. And that's what I'm 0:22:05.520 --> 0:22:06.879 trying to do it. I'm not make sure I'm not 0:22:07.040 --> 0:22:11.160 out here with too much diploma chip. Okay, speaking of dip, 0:22:13.160 --> 0:22:18.320 the French fry is the perfect dipping utensil. But but 0:22:18.480 --> 0:22:21.280 that means that you're your focus is the dip and 0:22:21.359 --> 0:22:25.000 not the fry. No, no, it's both, it's both. I love, 0:22:25.240 --> 0:22:30.520 I love what a burger? What a burger? Water burger? 0:22:30.640 --> 0:22:34.919 People do not honestly, when are they gonna fucking franchise? 0:22:35.359 --> 0:22:39.760 Where are they gonna be bro water Burger? I remember 0:22:39.800 --> 0:22:41.119 I went to Texas one TI. I was like when 0:22:41.160 --> 0:22:43.280 I first started going on the road doing colleges and 0:22:43.440 --> 0:22:47.160 I was starving. I flew in late the night before 0:22:47.160 --> 0:22:49.240 because you always had a fly on that night before, 0:22:50.880 --> 0:22:53.800 and I had no mode of transportation. And this was 0:22:53.880 --> 0:22:57.720 when and uber wasn't popping like it's popping. Now Uber 0:22:57.760 --> 0:23:01.080 Eats wasn't even a thing. So I paid the dude 0:23:01.480 --> 0:23:05.760 in cash to take me through the drive at water Burger. 0:23:06.640 --> 0:23:09.719 And the number of times I remember leaving the Texas 0:23:09.720 --> 0:23:11.840 Airport and I was like, it was like the Dallas 0:23:11.840 --> 0:23:13.880 Airport because I don't think it's in the Austin airport. 0:23:13.960 --> 0:23:16.320 It's not an Austin airport. There's a water Burger in 0:23:16.359 --> 0:23:19.879 the Dallas Airport. At the time, I had to go 0:23:20.000 --> 0:23:23.440 to a different terminal mm hmm, And I was like, 0:23:23.440 --> 0:23:26.960 I actually got to the airport on time. I'm going 0:23:27.040 --> 0:23:31.080 to walk the minutes to this other tournamental to get 0:23:31.080 --> 0:23:32.679 this water Burger and the I'm gonna eat it in 0:23:32.720 --> 0:23:37.160 the plank because when I tell you that the right 0:23:37.320 --> 0:23:42.760 sauce with the right French fry cannot be matched, like 0:23:42.760 --> 0:23:47.040 like you already you've already told me that the lit 0:23:47.119 --> 0:23:48.960 places don't have the onion rings right, so it's not 0:23:49.000 --> 0:23:52.480 even an option in some places, yes, but everybody everywhere 0:23:53.040 --> 0:23:56.080 has French fries. And once again you were talking about it. 0:23:56.080 --> 0:23:58.879 When something is available everywhere, does that make them a 0:23:58.880 --> 0:24:03.080 loose woman? Who? No? Does this make the potato of fluzi? 0:24:03.800 --> 0:24:08.080 Or is it adaptable, industrial and cheap to produce it is. 0:24:08.880 --> 0:24:11.720 But what I would say is I have no problem 0:24:11.840 --> 0:24:14.879 with the potato being an ethical slut, all right, I 0:24:15.000 --> 0:24:21.040 hear you, I hear you. But I think that it's 0:24:21.160 --> 0:24:26.720 not something. A lot of places don't offer onion rings 0:24:26.720 --> 0:24:31.840 because their work right everywhere offers French fries because you 0:24:31.920 --> 0:24:36.000 just buy them frozen. But I think we could do 0:24:36.200 --> 0:24:45.560 better for ourselves when it comes to the French fried potato. Also, 0:24:45.680 --> 0:24:47.600 we cannot talk about French fries and I'll talk about 0:24:47.600 --> 0:24:51.560 the fact that, uh, we started calling them freedom fries. 0:24:51.760 --> 0:24:57.480 I was like, white people don't have enough problems, and 0:24:57.600 --> 0:24:59.760 no one got on boards. No one got on board. 0:25:00.400 --> 0:25:05.760 Freedom fries is great. Do you remember the nonsense? Yeah? Yeah, 0:25:06.119 --> 0:25:08.000 I guess the French wouldn't go to war with us 0:25:08.080 --> 0:25:11.560 or some ship. So we stopped. Like they're like, we're 0:25:11.680 --> 0:25:15.840 calling was like, it doesn't They don't even call these that. 0:25:17.160 --> 0:25:20.479 They don't call them French fries. We do. They call 0:25:20.600 --> 0:25:24.480 them palm fruits, which is it's just fried fucking potatoes. Now, 0:25:24.560 --> 0:25:29.000 does every type of country do a French fry? I 0:25:29.080 --> 0:25:33.240 don't know, because I feel like an onion ring is 0:25:33.680 --> 0:25:37.760 very American specific. Yes, it's one of those things where 0:25:37.800 --> 0:25:39.880
