Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of ja'son
Trent Vorhees. Why because it's Friday the thirteen. Anyways, I
was obsessed with Friday the thirteenth movies when I was
like seven years old, real into that ship. If YouTube
(00:20):
existed at the time, man, I would have done nothing
but watch kill compilations. Truly, They're like, something's wrong with
that boy? Yeah I was. I was a morbid seven
year old. Anyway, I'm Jack. That's Miles. These are some
of the things that are trend And let's let's talk
about Frida. Yeah, why do we think it's unlucky? Miles,
(00:41):
no clue. I thought it was because of the movie. Yeah,
I guess that's my first conception of it as a
child was like, oh, that's Friday. It was a bigger thing. Yeah.
So J M McNabb, writer extraordinaire um, came through with
a deep dive into wy Friday is I'm lucky, especially
if you're a horny camp Crystal Lake camp counselor so.
(01:06):
I don't know. People really want to like put it
on Christianity. They really want to like have some Christian
reason for it, or like some Norse mythology. Reason, Wait,
what do you mean, like that there's an attack against Christianity.
You're saying Christians are being people being mean to Christianity. No, no,
like people want a Christian explanation or a like mythology
(01:29):
explanation for it, but the ones that are out there
are pretty unconvincing. So he found that, like, what the
most widely accepted answer for like Christians is that there
were thirteen guests that attended the Last Supper. You know, also,
as he pointed out, I'm gonna sign that they called
(01:49):
it the last Supper. Uh, maybe that was the thing,
not the guest. Yeah, maybe just don't go to dinners
called the Last Supper. But there's also in nor mythology
there was like a story where Loki crashed a party
and brought the number of gods in attendance to thirteen,
at which point one of them shot the other because
of low key tricks. But again, it's just like, I
(02:12):
don't know. Here's the thing though, if you think about it, right,
the reason there's thirteen guests at the Last Supper is
because of Jesus is at because he had twelve he
had his apostles. They were trying to take that down
to even twelve. That's what number thirteen is. Jesus, I
would say, I'm looking at it. I'm like, well, they
were just doing their thing as twelve people, and then
(02:33):
you came and made it thirteen. And also that's like
the entire like, his whole entourage when he was rolling
around as an adult, was like as a celebrity, was
twelve people. So he was always like part of a
group of thirteen. So you're gonna say the whole entirety
of his thing was unlucky. I think feels actually anti Christians.
(02:56):
That's how they do it, because I think the way
they think of it is like it's because of Judas
that he makes it unlucky because he's the trader. Judas
is a riot, right saying then it's like that's not
how you say it, but Judas is a riot. Yeah.
I always thought it was like carry it like it's
a riot. Okay, this dude, it's a riot. He's got it, Jesus.
(03:20):
We gotta we gotta eat together, we gotta yeah. Um.
But yeah, so it's not that or I mean that
could be it my my best uh, like the one
that actually feels interesting to me. At least is that
third team was an important number for pre Christian goddess
worshiping cultures, as thirteen is the number of menstrual cycles
in a year, and they placed great importance on fertility
(03:42):
and the number thirteen. And so when Christianity came through,
they were like, okay, third team bad because we're trying
to engage in pre Christianity goddess worshiping culture erasure um
and that doesn't feel like how information moved is that.
They're like, okay, so we just we come through, sweep
(04:04):
all that ship under the rug and install a little
everybody be scared of this. But Friday Day. So Friday's
at chill day now. But like back in the day
before we had like the mandated weekend, five day work week,
the shout out to unions. But in the fourteenth and
fifteen centuries when you just like worked when there was
(04:27):
work and otherwise who was party time? Uh, Friday was
considered a day of misfortune, as was noted in Chaucer's
Canterbury Tales. So the thing that really cemented it, that
brought them together was a nineteen o seven book called
Friday Friday Comma. Because man, they loved the fucking comma
(04:51):
and a title back in the day. But it wasn't
even about a machete wielding killer, you guys. It was
about a stock broker who plays on superstitions about the
date to create chaos on Wall Street low key style,
because more of a low key party pooper than a
(05:12):
Jason Borhei's thirteen party pooper. And then it just kind
of trickled into the media. But like a lot of things,
like whenever you try and look up the derivation of
a word um in like the English language, there's always
like five explanations. You never find good reasons where the
saying come from? Where did this word come from? Like
(05:34):
that was like one of our rules back at CRACT
was like after at a certain point we were like
writing articles about like, well and this phrase comes from this,
and then we realized, like you could find seven different
explanations that we're all like equally sourced or not sourced
for where every saying came from. And it feels like
this is similar. It's just anything that has to do
(05:57):
with language and like meaning and culture like this. Really
it's so fluid and trying to track something that's happening
in language with language. Is is very difficult. We're not
good at it, so we're not scared. I am scared
because saying I'm not scared just the way the universe
works will get me fucked up. So I'll just say
(06:18):
I am scared. I take the bees approach, you know
what I mean? If you actual shook around the bees
and they keep working with you, unless I'll give funk
about y'all okay, and they leave you alone. Yeah. I
just find that being constantly afraid of everything helps me
get through life strategy. Um, all right, we want to
say r I P to Lisa Marie Presley. Uh, I
(06:39):
guess on trends yesterday, Uh, y'all talked about how she
was rushed to the hospital but apparently it was too
late and she passed away before and you know, I
think we also touched on how the died suddenly, oh
another cardiac arrest and before we were talking. I think
that goes like, Yeah, I think her father also had
a semler fate as well, like with cardiac issues. And
(07:03):
I don't know what could have been going on with
her personally, but yeah, her father was a famous anti
drug crusader, Elvis Presley, who also just happened to be
on every single prescription pill that had been at that time.
But those are drugs. And then great story where he
went to Nixon's White House with a golden gun, wearing
(07:23):
a cape and offered to be his drugs. Are you
know a position that he made up and snitch on
the Beatles. So that's I know. I talked about it
every time Elvis his name comes up. Um, but that
is because it's the greatest thing that ever happened in
the history of America and more people need to talk
about it. Yes, Royal Silencer, what is this because the
(07:45):
fucking Harry the hairy mania is way back Burgers is like, hey, man,
come check out the Royal Silencer. One of a kind
burger designed to silence the urge to spill only gossip
to media outlets and whatever they said. It breaks all
way back Burger's rules by including a spare patty through
(08:07):
the world's most notable spare Wow, it looks like a monstrosity.
I am very hungry right now, so it actually looks
so hungry, like my stomach sounds like a fucking drum
and bassed concert inside. Man, the way the cheese melting
is the cheese melting or did they dump like nacho
cheese on that ship. I mean, it depends on who
the food stylist is. You know, sometimes they do use
(08:28):
nacho cheese to dupe you. In other times, you know,
they hit it a little heat gun or something. But anyway,
I just like that. Everybody's getting in on it now.
But for them, they're like, all right, do a graphic
and we'll just put a patty, an extra patty. That's
the only thing that is different air. Get it, bitch,
way back Burgers. You guys are such bitches. All right,
(08:50):
let's take a quick break. We'll be right back, and
we're back, and Tesla is back. Baby. They had decided
to dramatically cut prices of their Model three and Model
(09:13):
Y in the US by waited average about ten dollars. Wow,
everything's going good over there. Elon, Um, I mean, there
couldn't be the stock price just tanking instead of or
not even stocking. We saw it the second he started
sucking around a Twitter. Yeah, but I guess, And now
I think that's like, it's funny. You'll see pieces that
(09:35):
are like Elon makes a genius move, Like when you're
like Cape and others are like, yikes, things are that bad,
huh that you're trying to make sure you can fight
off the competition by slashing your prices. I know this
has led to people being very upset if they recently
bought one of these. For sure, yeah China, I think first.
And people pulled up to the dealership they're like, um,
(09:58):
so can I need yeah, and need my money that
I just paid you for this piece of ship clunker
that you're just giving away for free. Now my trunk
don't even close normal. This makes me wonder. So we
do know Elon Musk as a listener to this podcast,
and we told you stop, we don't sunk with you,
but we don't funk with you. But he does listen
to us to try and get like cool ideas for
(10:19):
things to do, and then he always sucked them up.
But we were talking about how the subscription model where you,
you know, do a big illogical price slashing, you know,
give the thing away for a low price at the outset,
and then you're like stuck to it and you have
to like keep paying. Now, obviously Tesla is not a
(10:43):
subscription based service, but it's kind of the closest to
a subscription based service of any car in the sense
that like they will break that ship if you if
you're like not getting the tech updates and ship if
you're not downloading the software updates. So maybe he's like
give it away and trying to bring people into the
family so they can like you know, yeah, but the
(11:04):
whole industry is moving in that direction, where like things
that were just features in a car are now paywalled.
They're like, oh, yeah, you paid all this money for
a BMW Oh you want remote start, Well, that's a fee.
It's in there. It's in there. We can unlock it
the fucking car. Like, I don't need you to funk
with me anymore. I bought this ship off, you know,
let me go do whatever funk I want to do,
(11:26):
versus like, oh you want that, you better we could
as long as you're paying for it. Yeah. And also
Tesla's are just a complete nightmare to get any service
on and uh much like Twitter has like no customer
service or like no anything where you can like reach
out and be like, hey, uh my wheel fell off
(11:47):
for like the auto stopped in the middle of the highway.
There's no human that you can contact. That's all you know,
it's all just a f a Q page essentially, the
f a Q page approach to it's like, oh, so
you're autonomous vehicle caused an eight car pile up. Didn't
click here? Yeah, Yellow Jackets season two is trending because
(12:10):
the new trailer is out. I'm shook. Ye I had
goose bumps. I mean, I'm just so interested in seeing
what more they reveal, because towards the end of the
first season, you're like, Okay, this is so much more
than just people crashing into the woods. Yeah, people crash
into woods. But then also like it's really somebody watched
(12:32):
Lost and was like, what if we, like the thing
that was good about season one of Lost, Like what
if we actually paid everything off and just like really
focused on making a good instead of being like, you know,
like Lost got snowed under by network expectations and then
being like, all right, we're gonna need forty more of
these right by next weekend asap, hurry up and crank
(12:55):
them out. But they're they're creating a mystery box, and
you a mystery box shows don't always work out. But
I'm very intrigued something about Christina Ricci when she looked
so scared, like when she's like, only baby score, there's
like that. I almost was like, oh my god. I
don't know. We watched it together and we didn't comment
(13:17):
on it while it was happening, but that moment where
she said only babies cry and then starts crying, I
was like, Christina Ricci get in more movies and TV shows.
You are a gift great acting happening. We also have
the magical cult leader character from season one. If you
(13:38):
haven't seen the season one of Yellow Jackets, it's definitely
worth your time. Um, but it's about a girl's high
school soccer team crashes in the woods, cult and cannibalism ensues,
and the one who leads the cult we haven't seen
as an adult because it's like a cut back between
like the present in the past, present in the past,
(13:59):
and we have seeing Lotty, who's like the most mysterious Well, yeah,
we don't and we don't know. The casting is so
good that they can't just be like and Lotty is, um,
you know this person who's like sixth building a bunch
of c s. I episodes like it's going to be
someone right, Yeah, I don't know. It's Rebecca Lobo, former
(14:19):
w NBA star. That's kind of weird. But okay, I
wasn't sure that they were enacting now, but yeah, may
may it come quickly because I can't I can't wait
to see that thing. Elijah Wood is in there. Yeah,
it looked like an AI version of him. He looks
so annoying. He looks like preserved in I don't know,
(14:41):
like he's just in a cryo freeze every like in
between acting jobs. He looked like a child. Yes, the
Ruders or Brian was saying that he and Paul Rudd
are both the most kind of eerily unchanging of all
the Yeah, yeah um. And then finally, the Takeout Road
an article about the best McDonald's in the world. It
(15:02):
is not in the United States, not surprisingly, but according
to The New York Post, UK Michelin star chef Gareth
Ward has declared that the McDonald's in Welshpool, Whales um
is not only the best McDonald's in the world, but
one of the top three restaurants in the country of Wales.
Wait what so apparently it has like at the own menu.
(15:25):
Like McDonald's are all franchise right, so like you can
kind of go off. No, doesn't mean you can just
be like yo, check out my like my thing, Like yeah,
I don't think you could do that. I mean I
think outside of the US it's much you well, you
have a right there. That's truly just to be like, yo,
(15:46):
we don't give a fuck, we don't know what the
fun what to do. I thought they like actually developed
those first. I think they must develop them for sure,
But anyways, this one is like it just sounds good again.
This might be an episode that we will go back
and be like, what the funk were we talking about?
We were so hungry or the worst improv audience. People
(16:07):
were like, give us a suggestion. We're like food because
I'm hungry right now, Like yeah, um, the whale specific
dishes they're inspiring. Rave reviews include the mcplant and just
like an extensive vegetarian and vegan menu, the Crispy Chicken
sandwich with black pepper mayo, and a Sara Dobun cadberry
chocolate mcflurry, which I've always thought that would be an
(16:31):
interesting I think I had heard of it somewhere. They've
got something called the Millionaires doughnut that is like a
frostic caramel doughnut with like a bunch of caramel like
inside the vegetable deluxe sandwich limited Anyways, you look like
you're reading it like I don't know, this is what
they got. You get this, That's what I mean, garlic bites.
(16:53):
Get you want to try those limited time only cheesy
garlic bites. I do love just reading about like what's
being served at various McDonald's around the world. Oh yes, yeah,
because it's it's truly like the grass is greener kind
of thing. I remember when I went to Spain, Like
I I try not to eat a ton of fast
food all the time, but when I see like, oh
my god, what is this Spanish McDonald's have for me
(17:15):
with hormone or something like yeah, yeah, a lot of hands.
Let's do that cam based menu cam umberg also just
um you know um. But anyways, shout out to McDonald
and Wales. Let's just do shout out to Wales. Shout
out to Wales state country. Great national anthem, great national anthem?
(17:38):
What's the national anthem? Like it's great because they teach
the kids, like in school, they teach you to harmonize,
so when you hear there's like a version I heard
during like a rugby match where like that was in Wales,
and like the whole stadium was harmonizing like their own
national anthem, and I'm like, yo, this ship is okay,
good for you. Well, those are some of the things
that are trending on this Friday, the third teen. We
(18:01):
are back on Tuesday. Uh, not on Monday. Happy Martin
Luther King Junior Day to those in America who celebrate
UH and everyone. So we're taking that day off back
on Tuesday with the whole last episode of the show.
Until then, be kind to each other, be kind to yourselves,
get the vaccine, don't do nothing about white supremacy, and
(18:23):
we will talk to y'all on Tuesday. Bye bye,
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of ja'son
Trent Vorhees. Why because it's Friday the thirteen. Anyways, I
was obsessed with Friday the thirteenth movies when I was
like seven years old, real into that ship. If YouTube
(00:20):
existed at the time, man, I would have done nothing
but watch kill compilations. Truly, They're like, something's wrong with
that boy? Yeah I was. I was a morbid seven
year old. Anyway, I'm Jack. That's Miles. These are some
of the things that are trend And let's let's talk
about Frida. Yeah, why do we think it's unlucky? Miles,
(00:41):
no clue. I thought it was because of the movie. Yeah,
I guess that's my first conception of it as a
child was like, oh, that's Friday. It was a bigger thing. Yeah.
So J M McNabb, writer extraordinaire um, came through with
a deep dive into wy Friday is I'm lucky, especially
if you're a horny camp Crystal Lake camp counselor so.
(01:06):
I don't know. People really want to like put it
on Christianity. They really want to like have some Christian
reason for it, or like some Norse mythology. Reason, Wait,
what do you mean, like that there's an attack against Christianity.
You're saying Christians are being people being mean to Christianity. No, no,
like people want a Christian explanation or a like mythology
(01:29):
explanation for it, but the ones that are out there
are pretty unconvincing. So he found that, like, what the
most widely accepted answer for like Christians is that there
were thirteen guests that attended the Last Supper. You know, also,
as he pointed out, I'm gonna sign that they called

not the guest. Yeah, maybe just don't go to dinners
called the Last Supper. But there's also in nor mythology
there was like a story where Loki crashed a party
and brought the number of gods in attendance to thirteen,
at which point one of them shot the other because
of low key tricks. But again, it's just like, I
(02:12):
don't know. Here's the thing though, if you think about it, right,
the reason there's thirteen guests at the Last Supper is
because of Jesus is at because he had twelve he
had his apostles. They were trying to take that down
to even twelve. That's what number thirteen is. Jesus, I

(02:33):
you came and made it thirteen. And also that's like
the entire like, his whole entourage when he was rolling
around as an adult, was like as a celebrity, was
twelve people. So he was always like part of a
group of thirteen. So you're gonna say the whole entirety
of his thing was unlucky. I think feels actually anti Christians.
(02:56):
That's how they do it, because I think the way
they think of it is like it's because of Judas
that he makes it unlucky because he's the trader. Judas
is a riot, right saying then it's like that's not
how you say it, but Judas is a riot. Yeah.
I always thought it was like carry it like it's
a riot. Okay, this dude, it's a riot. He's got it, Jesus.
(03:20):
We gotta we gotta eat together, we gotta yeah. Um.
But yeah, so it's not that or I mean that
could be it my my best uh, like the one
that actually feels interesting to me. At least is that
third team was an important number for pre Christian goddess
worshiping cultures, as thirteen is the number of menstrual cycles
in a year, and they placed great importance on fertility
(03:42):
and the number thirteen. And so when Christianity came through,
they were like, okay, third team bad because we're trying
to engage in pre Christianity goddess worshiping culture erasure um
and that doesn't feel like how information moved is that.
They're like, okay, so we just we come through, sweep
(04:04):
all that ship under the rug and install a little
everybody be scared of this. But Friday Day. So Friday's
at chill day now. But like back in the day

(05:57):
with language and like meaning and culture like this. Really
it's so fluid and trying to track something that's happening
in language with language. Is is very difficult. We're not
good at it, so we're not scared. I am scared
because saying I'm not scared just the way the universe
works will get me fucked up. So I'll just say
(06:18):
I am scared. I take the bees approach, you know
what I mean? If you actual shook around the bees
and they keep working with you, unless I'll give funk
about y'all okay, and they leave you alone. Yeah. I
just find that being constantly afraid of everything helps me
get through life strategy. Um, all right, we want to
say r I P to Lisa Marie Presley. Uh, I
(06:39):
guess on trends yesterday, Uh, y'all talked about how she
was rushed to the hospital but apparently it was too
late and she passed away before and you know, I
think we also touched on how the died suddenly, oh
another cardiac arrest and before we were talking. I think
that goes like, Yeah, I think her father also had
a semler fate as well, like with cardiac issues. And
(07:03):
I don't know what could have been going on with

But those are drugs. And then great story where he
went to Nixon's White House with a golden gun, wearing
(07:23):
a cape and offered to be his drugs. Are you
know a position that he made up and snitch on
the Beatles. So that's I know. I talked about it
every time Elvis his name comes up. Um, but that
is because it's the greatest thing that ever happened in
the history of America and more people need to talk
about it. Yes, Royal Silencer, what is this because the
(07:45):
fucking Harry the hairy mania is way back Burgers is like, hey, man,
come check out the Royal Silencer. One of a kind
burger designed to silence the urge to spill only gossip
to media outlets and whatever they said. It breaks all
way back Burger's rules by including a spare patty through
(08:07):
the world's most notable spare Wow, it looks like a monstrosity.
I am very hungry right now, so it actually looks
so hungry, like my stomach sounds like a fucking drum
and bassed concert inside. Man, the way the cheese melting
is the cheese melting or did they dump like nacho
cheese on that ship. I mean, it depends on who
the food stylist is. You know, sometimes they do use
(08:28):
nacho cheese to dupe you. In other times, you know,
they hit it a little heat gun or something. But anyway,
I just like that. Everybody's getting in on it now.
But for them, they're like, all right, do a graphic
and we'll just put a patty, an extra patty. That's
the only thing that is different air. Get it, bitch,
way back Burgers. You guys are such bitches. All right,
(08:50):
let's take a quick break. We'll be right back, and
we're back, and Tesla is back. Baby. They had decided
to dramatically cut prices of their Model three and Model
(09:13):
Y in the US by waited average about ten dollars. Wow,
everything's going good over there. Elon, Um, I mean, there
couldn't be the stock price just tanking instead of or
not even stocking. We saw it the second he started
sucking around a Twitter. Yeah, but I guess, And now
I think that's like, it's funny. You'll see pieces that
(09:35):
are like Elon makes a genius move, Like when you're
like Cape and others are like, yikes, things are that bad,
huh that you're trying to make sure you can fight
off the competition by slashing your prices. I know this
has led to people being very upset if they recently
bought one of these. For sure, yeah China, I think first.
And people pulled up to the dealership they're like, um,
(09:58):
so can I need yeah, and need my money that
I just paid you for this piece of ship clunker
that you're just giving away for free. Now my trunk
don't even close normal. This makes me wonder. So we
do know Elon Musk as a listener to this podcast,
and we told you stop, we don't sunk with you,
but we don't funk with you. But he does listen
to us to try and get like cool ideas for
(10:19):
things to do, and then he always sucked them up.
But we were talking about how the subscription model where you,
you know, do a big illogical price slashing, you know,
give the thing away for a low price at the outset,
and then you're like stuck to it and you have
to like keep paying. Now, obviously Tesla is not a
(10:43):
subscription based service, but it's kind of the closest to
a subscription based service of any car in the sense
that like they will break that ship if you if
you're like not getting the tech updates and ship if
you're not downloading the software updates. So maybe he's like
give it away and trying to bring people into the
family so they can like you know, yeah, but the
(11:04):
whole industry is moving in that direction, where like things
that were just features in a car are now paywalled.
They're like, oh, yeah, you paid all this money for
a BMW Oh you want remote start, Well, that's a fee.
It's in there. It's in there. We can unlock it
the fucking car. Like, I don't need you to funk
with me anymore. I bought this ship off, you know,
let me go do whatever funk I want to do,
(11:26):
versus like, oh you want that, you better we could
as long as you're paying for it. Yeah. And also
Tesla's are just a complete nightmare to get any service
on and uh much like Twitter has like no customer
service or like no anything where you can like reach
out and be like, hey, uh my wheel fell off
(11:47):
for like the auto stopped in the middle of the highway.
There's no human that you can contact. That's all you know,
it's all just a f a Q page essentially, the
f a Q page approach to it's like, oh, so
you're autonomous vehicle caused an eight car pile up. Didn't
click here? Yeah, Yellow Jackets season two is trending because
(12:10):
the new trailer is out. I'm shook. Ye I had
goose bumps. I mean, I'm just so interested in seeing
what more they reveal, because towards the end of the
first season, you're like, Okay, this is so much more
than just people crashing into the woods. Yeah, people crash
into woods. But then also like it's really somebody watched
(12:32):
Lost and was like, what if we, like the thing
that was good about season one of Lost, Like what
if we actually paid everything off and just like really
focused on making a good instead of being like, you know,
like Lost got snowed under by network expectations and then
being like, all right, we're gonna need forty more of
these right by next weekend asap, hurry up and crank
(12:55):
them out. But they're they're creating a mystery box, and
you a mystery box shows don't always work out. But
I'm very intrigued something about Christina Ricci when she looked
so scared, like when she's like, only baby score, there's
like that. I almost was like, oh my god. I
don't know. We watched it together and we didn't comment
(13:17):
on it while it was happening, but that moment where
she said only babies cry and then starts crying, I
was like, Christina Ricci get in more movies and TV shows.
You are a gift great acting happening. We also have
the magical cult leader character from season one. If you
(13:38):
haven't seen the season one of Yellow Jackets, it's definitely
worth your time. Um, but it's about a girl's high
school soccer team crashes in the woods, cult and cannibalism ensues,
and the one who leads the cult we haven't seen
as an adult because it's like a cut back between
like the present in the past, present in the past,
(13:59):
and we have seeing Lotty, who's like the most mysterious Well, yeah,
we don't and we don't know. The casting is so
good that they can't just be like and Lotty is, um,
you know this person who's like sixth building a bunch
of c s. I episodes like it's going to be
someone right, Yeah, I don't know. It's Rebecca Lobo, former
(14:19):
w NBA star. That's kind of weird. But okay, I
wasn't sure that they were enacting now, but yeah, may
may it come quickly because I can't I can't wait
to see that thing. Elijah Wood is in there. Yeah,
it looked like an AI version of him. He looks
so annoying. He looks like preserved in I don't know,
(14:41):
like he's just in a cryo freeze every like in
between acting jobs. He looked like a child. Yes, the
Ruders or Brian was saying that he and Paul Rudd
are both the most kind of eerily unchanging of all
the Yeah, yeah um. And then finally, the Takeout Road
an article about the best McDonald's in the world. It
(15:02):
is not in the United States, not surprisingly, but according
to The New York Post, UK Michelin star chef Gareth
Ward has declared that the McDonald's in Welshpool, Whales um
is not only the best McDonald's in the world, but
one of the top three restaurants in the country of Wales.
Wait what so apparently it has like at the own menu.
(15:25):
Like McDonald's are all franchise right, so like you can
kind of go off. No, doesn't mean you can just
be like yo, check out my like my thing, Like yeah,
I don't think you could do that. I mean I
think outside of the US it's much you well, you
have a right there. That's truly just to be like, yo,
(15:46):
we don't give a fuck, we don't know what the
fun what to do. I thought they like actually developed
those first. I think they must develop them for sure,
But anyways, this one is like it just sounds good again.
This might be an episode that we will go back
and be like, what the funk were we talking about?
We were so hungry or the worst improv audience. People
(16:07):
were like, give us a suggestion. We're like food because
I'm hungry right now, Like yeah, um, the whale specific
dishes they're inspiring. Rave reviews include the mcplant and just
like an extensive vegetarian and vegan menu, the Crispy Chicken
sandwich with black pepper mayo, and a Sara Dobun cadberry
chocolate mcflurry, which I've always thought that would be an
(16:31):
interesting I think I had heard of it somewhere. They've
got something called the Millionaires doughnut that is like a
frostic caramel doughnut with like a bunch of caramel like
inside the vegetable deluxe sandwich limited Anyways, you look like
you're reading it like I don't know, this is what
they got. You get this, That's what I mean, garlic bites.
(16:53):
Get you want to try those limited time only cheesy
garlic bites. I do love just reading about like what's
being served at various McDonald's around the world. Oh yes, yeah,
because it's it's truly like the grass is greener kind
of thing. I remember when I went to Spain, Like
I I try not to eat a ton of fast
food all the time, but when I see like, oh
my god, what is this Spanish McDonald's have for me
(17:15):
with hormone or something like yeah, yeah, a lot of hands.
Let's do that cam based menu cam umberg also just
um you know um. But anyways, shout out to McDonald
and Wales. Let's just do shout out to Wales. Shout
out to Wales state country. Great national anthem, great national anthem?
(17:38):
What's the national anthem? Like it's great because they teach
the kids, like in school, they teach you to harmonize,
so when you hear there's like a version I heard
during like a rugby match where like that was in Wales,
and like the whole stadium was harmonizing like their own
national anthem, and I'm like, yo, this ship is okay,
good for you. Well, those are some of the things
that are trending on this Friday, the third teen. We
(18:01):
are back on Tuesday. Uh, not on Monday. Happy Martin
Luther King Junior Day to those in America who celebrate
UH and everyone. So we're taking that day off back
on Tuesday with the whole last episode of the show.
Until then, be kind to each other, be kind to yourselves,
get the vaccine, don't do nothing about white supremacy, and
(18:23):
we will talk to y'all on Tuesday. Bye bye,
