Speaker 1 (00:08):
And I invited you here. I thought I made myself
perfectly clear. When you're a guest to my home, you
gotta come to me empty. And I said, no, guest,
You're own presences. Presence and.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
I already had too much stuff, So how do you
dare to surbey me?

Speaker 3 (00:49):
Welcome to I said, no gifts, I'm Pritchard Wineger. We're
here in the studio. I've had a surprisingly efficient morning.
I went to Costco, got in, got out, got exactly
what I needed, some breakfast bars because Jim has been
eating mine because he overinvested in his type of bars,
and those are the Robert Irving or something. Irvine, the

(01:13):
guy who did the restaurant Impossible, has now started making
bars and they're disgusting. So now Jim's eating mine. And
I had to go to Costco. And then I put
my bars on the conveyor belt and the person behind
me corrected the way I put them on the conveyor belt.
I didn't say anything to him, and he had grazed
my ankle with his cart, so I guess I saved

(01:34):
it all just to talk about on the podcast rather
than confront him. He was bald, I was wearing I
had a gold chain, so keep your eye out for him.
What else is going on? I've been watching The Mortician.
This is a documentary on HBO. If you haven't heard
of this, it's kind of about a mortician who runs
a crematory where he this isn't giving anything away. He

(01:58):
put a lot of bodies into the friar at once
and was you know, I don't see that much wrong
with it, very efficient. He was doing like forty thousand
bodies a year. Maybe there were some suspicious deaths around him,
don't I can't speak to that. I also, look, if

(02:20):
my body gets thrown into the fryar with a bunch
more and it's not a friar, it's an oven. Sure,
if my ashes get mixed up, my family gets somebody else,
maybe look at somebody with a better personality. I don't know.
I don't think it's that big of a deal. I'm
on his side. And if, truly, if anyone in my
family spends more than fifty dollars on my funeral, I'm

(02:41):
coming back and I will make your lives a living hell.
What else Patreon continues to exist. I think by the
time this is out will be kind of wrapping up
season two of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. It's been
quite a journey, and it's been explosive, absolutely explosive. So
get on there, join us for bonus episodes, whatever, let's

(03:03):
get into the show. I adore today's guest. He's fantastic.
It's Beck Bennett.

Speaker 4 (03:08):
Oh god, it's so nice to be here.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
I'm so happy you could be here.

Speaker 4 (03:13):
I really, it's really a pleasure to be in your
you know, in your what's the word, I don't have
the word, not your studio, but you're like or in
your orbit. Yeah, you're comforting, like I feel very taking
care of him. I hope, I feel like I could.
Like we talked a little bit before, we said we
can say anything to go anywhere, and it really feels
that way. It feels like there are no judgments here.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
There will be no judgments. I'm only asking questions.

Speaker 4 (03:36):
It's great to be here in a judgment for his own,
you know, because most places these days, you're gonna you
say the wrong thing, you do the wrong thing, You're
gonna get a look.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
You can't be funny anymore.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
You can't be funny.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
People are so icy, they're so sensitive.

Speaker 4 (03:51):
Yes, they really are but I you know, I gotta
I'm I'm blown away by your Costco story. There's so
many things there that I really want to jump on.
First of all, the bar. What's your bar?

Speaker 3 (04:03):
My bar is a it's called a think bar.

Speaker 4 (04:06):
Oh, yes, the think bar. The twenty grams approach, no sugar,
no sugar. Absolutely, so I I've always done those. Oh
I did the peanut butter ones.

Speaker 3 (04:15):
Yes, sure, And they started to have a little bit.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
Of a like a funk smell to them. And I'm like,
is this because they've been sitting on the shelves for
two years, three years? Or is it the flavor? And
I switched over to a chocolate okay, flavor and it
doesn't have the same smell.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
Now they have the Variety pack, which is a chocolate
and a peanut butter okay. And I think the problem
is if you eat too many at like in a row,
if you.

Speaker 4 (04:37):
Have like a ten pack a day, then.

Speaker 3 (04:41):
I don't get it. No, you have to every other
day or you start to recognize, oh, this is a
bad tasting thing.

Speaker 4 (04:48):
Yeah, this is this is fake. This is not good. Right.

Speaker 3 (04:51):
Science has created a thing that, like your brain can
be tricked momentarily but then it starts to catch on. Yeah,
so if you alternate, it's fine.

Speaker 4 (04:59):
It's fine.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
Are you eating these for breakfast?

Speaker 4 (05:01):
No? These are These are snacks and like that. Bring
them with me when I don't have time for a meal,
you know, in between type of thing.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
I'll put them in my backpack if I'm going on
a flight. This kind of it's nice.

Speaker 4 (05:12):
At the same time, they are they are covered in
some sort of sugar free chocolate that will melt.

Speaker 3 (05:18):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (05:19):
Yeah, so that was a little bit of a hiccup.
I would like a non chocolate cover so they're impervious
to the melting situation and I don't make a mess
when I open it.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
I do have five currently five boxes in my car
and it's about eighty five degrees.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
Yeah, they're cooked. They are just one big blob. And
you can put them in the freezer and pull them off.
You know, they've got that weird shape to it. You know,
you can bring the shape back.

Speaker 3 (05:40):
Yeah. The chocolate and the peanut butter will mix together
a little bit. It'll be a new type and I
need to mix up.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
Yeah. Yeah, that's a good way to mix up your bars.
Just put them in your car and melt them away
and just give them a new form.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
And I mean the chemicals every day. Yeah, for probably
the last four years.

Speaker 4 (05:56):
I think they're the most effective power bar.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Yeah, protein bar, because I've tried to others. You know,
there's the guy that my boyfriend has been eating them.

Speaker 4 (06:04):
I'm surprised he went with his bars. I mean, like
you're talking about the restaurant.

Speaker 3 (06:07):
The rescue guy has a bar, the guy that's like
super jazz.

Speaker 4 (06:11):
And that's like definitely is emotional problems.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
And I don't think any of the skills required to
do the show he's doing.

Speaker 4 (06:17):
Yeah, I don't think.

Speaker 3 (06:18):
I don't think, like what expertise is he bringing to
the bars, to the restaurants or the bars.

Speaker 4 (06:24):
Yeah, he's not. It's not It doesn't seem helpful to me.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
No.

Speaker 3 (06:27):
I feel like he was like probably part of Seal
Team six or something and he's like, now I'm going
to save Dumpy restaurant in Nebraska. And I don't think
anyone should trust anything he's doing.

Speaker 4 (06:37):
Absolutely not. I'm not surprised that the bars.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
Were bars are revolting. They are the sweetest. They look
like they are appealing. It looks like a candy bar
has kind of you would think maybe these are candy
bar ingredients. Yeah, you bite into that thing and that's sugar,
alcohol all the way.

Speaker 4 (06:54):
Really crazy, the variety of bars out there. You don't
know what is a candy bar, what's going to be
sort of good for you?

Speaker 3 (06:59):
And at Costco you get into that aisle.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
It's I haven't made it yet. I'm a member of Costco.
Here's the other thing. Haven't even made it in yet. No.
I joined for my son's third birthday.

Speaker 3 (07:11):
He begged you.

Speaker 4 (07:12):
Yeah, he was like. I was like, okay, I'm going
to go get all the juice boxes and everything for
the birthday party, and which he he threw up an
hour into the birthday party and it was just it
was all wasted. Basically, everybody went home and everybody was scared.
But I went to Costco to get a membership for
me and my wife. I was like, I'm going out
of town or something. I was getting it so she

(07:34):
could go shopping when I was getting out of town
or something. And there was this whole thing where they
were like, no, she has to come here and show.

Speaker 3 (07:40):
Her idea and she will serious about it.

Speaker 4 (07:44):
It was so intense.

Speaker 3 (07:45):
They do they don't play games.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
They do not play games. It was so it was yeah,
it was very intense. And then the last thing I
want to say about that opening story is the guy
who he rearranged your.

Speaker 3 (07:58):
Bars, yes, without my permission.

Speaker 4 (08:00):
That is that is so I would. I mean, of
course you have this place to just unload and be
like the guy with the chain costco, be careful. He's
going to go over your heels.

Speaker 3 (08:10):
That is just we got him.

Speaker 4 (08:12):
Yeah, the other and the other. Just yesterday, I was
at a farmer's market with my son in a in
a what's it called a wagon, that's what it's called,
like a red wagon. Yeah, no, but it's like black
and it like folds off. It's kind of like an
escalade of wagons, which is why I like don't think
of burgage. Yeah. Basically, and I'm going through and there's

(08:34):
just when you have a child and like older guys
typically or like just like standing there and not getting
out of the way. I basically ran over him and
I was like I walked by and I was like,
excuse me, excuse me, and he like I just went
I was going forward, went over his foot a little bit.

(08:55):
He was pulling back, you know, and as he was
pulling back. I said, you can do it. Oh excuse me, sorry, anyway,
that to me, the relating things that I have.

Speaker 3 (09:05):
It's a big issue for me in my life. Something
that nothing will send me off, like someone not being
aware of how much space the bottle is taking up.

Speaker 4 (09:12):
Yeah. Meanwhile, my wife was in line for uh, I
forget what it was. She was getting like these like
rice ball things at the farmer's market, right, and a
woman was hovering over her shoulder, and she was like,
this woman has been hovering over me. She's been like
right up against my back. Every time I move forward,
she like almost almost bumps into me. And she was
at the point of like I'm about to say something,
of course, and then she went to get her food

(09:32):
and the woman was hovering over her again. I'm like,
I have to say something. I have to. I'm the
person who says something.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
Did you say something?

Speaker 4 (09:40):
Oh not not in that, you know. To the guy,
I said, you can do it, and I ran over
his foot.

Speaker 3 (09:45):
But usually these people are like if you do say something,
then suddenly you become the villain. You're the one that
was too sensitive.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
It is, yeah, because they are if they're displaying that
sort of you know, that sort of behavior. They're off
and you don't know what you're messing with.

Speaker 3 (09:57):
Yeah, you have no idea of what rules they're following.

Speaker 4 (10:00):
That's true, that's true. That's I subscribe to that for sure.
With any sort of sports thing. You know, a guy
weren't like people at sports bars and sports events or
road rage. You know, I'm like, never confrontation because but
in a supermarket, a farmer's market, I feel a little
maybe even maybe even the airport, I'm a little emboldened

(10:21):
because that's another lines hovering people being awful.

Speaker 3 (10:24):
Right, and the airport there's enough security around. Nobody crosses
a line. You know they're going to be taken care of.

Speaker 4 (10:30):
Yes, yes, And honestly, that's actually kind of a good idea.
I know, I kind of provoke it, kind of like
you can get rid of these people pretty clearly, like oh,
you know, and then back off all one of those
things sort of instigate, but then they come at you
and like, oh, sorry, you gotta go man like because
you cannot no mess around.

Speaker 3 (10:46):
Their trip might be over right there. Yeah, you can
report them to SA immediately. I feel threatened. This person
said something in my ear.

Speaker 4 (10:52):
Yeah, it's it's a little fake tattletale situation. Absolutely bade
people at the.

Speaker 3 (10:58):
Heard the word bomb come out of his mouth. I
don't know, but take.

Speaker 4 (11:02):
Care of him. I'm definitely gonna do that anytime somebody
does something to me at the airport.

Speaker 3 (11:07):
Have you ever had a TSA your bag disassembled and
then take look through everything.

Speaker 4 (11:13):
You know? I haven't had a while ago. It hasn't
been a long time, but recently, if anything, it's been
like they've gone through and they've I haven't really found anything.
They've been like pulled something out and been like, oh, yeah,
this is what it was. I'm like, okay, great. But
but the last time I flew, I was was coming
I was coming from New Orleans and the I went through,

(11:38):
everything was fine with the bag. But he's like a
little beeper went off right by my crotch. I was
wearing jeans with metal buttons.

Speaker 3 (11:46):
Oh no, the worst kind of fly.

Speaker 4 (11:47):
And he yeah, we're's absolutely the worst kind of fly.
I rarely, it's rarely. It's usually open.

Speaker 3 (11:52):
It's a job.

Speaker 4 (11:53):
It's a whole you gotta thing. And with these fingers,
these are sausages. These are not for you know, rock climbing. No,
these are cannot They saw me as a kid, and
they were like he's not going to be a will no, no, no, no,
not with these sausage fingers. But they were they didn't
take the wand out like it had been so long

(12:14):
since I was checked. And he was like, I'm gonna
need to check you, and he like, I was like, okay, sure,
and he went up my leg, you know, like fully just.

Speaker 3 (12:22):
Kind of slithered up your ead.

Speaker 4 (12:24):
Yeah, like really like kind of like like he was
climbing a tree, just kind of like choking up. You know.
I don't know if that's how you climbing, but yeah,
I have big thighs. You know you probably wanted to.
But he was really bumping, bumping my junk and then
on the other side and then he took the back
of his hand and went across my crotch like that,
and I was like and I and again, you know,

(12:45):
I I was this is you know, I could have
been a little more patient, but I was like what
I was like, do you want me to take my
pants off? And he was like, sir, sir, when I
need to check. I was like, okay, I just I
I wear these vans all the time. Okay, and but
it was like he was all over my penis.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
Yeah, that feels like a second permission needs to be asked.

Speaker 4 (13:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
Yeah, He's like I'm gonna touch you, and now I'm
going to touch further. Did you like that?

Speaker 2 (13:08):
Right?

Speaker 3 (13:08):
Right?

Speaker 4 (13:09):
Right? Is that? Okay? You did ask me if I
wanted to go to a private room? Oh, and I
was like absolutely not no, because then you're gonna get
away with a lot more and then take my pants off,
and then like you bring some other people in and
you never want to go into the private room.

Speaker 3 (13:24):
No, no, no, no no. Well then everyone's looking at you
and they're like now you like even after you leave
the private room, they're like what happened with him?

Speaker 4 (13:30):
Yeah? Yeah yeah, And I come out like totally white,
you know, eyes wide, and they're like, m everything's fine.

Speaker 3 (13:38):
People looking at you at the airport. In that situation,
you have to kind of explain. It's like, yeah, this
is another thing like if I go if I'm at
a restaurant and I go to the bathroom and it's occupied, yeah,
and I just need to pee, But then I'm like
I'm standing there for a while. The amount of explaining
I'm doing when I get back to the table, like, oh,
the way I.

Speaker 4 (13:56):
Was standing there, the way it was, it was a
long wait. I didn't have to poop.

Speaker 3 (14:00):
Who I should take a card of video of me
waiting or something.

Speaker 4 (14:04):
That's a good idea.

Speaker 3 (14:05):
Yeah, just be like if you're all wondering.

Speaker 4 (14:07):
Yeah, yeah you could. You could almost like, well I
was gonna say, live live, go.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
To twitch, go to twitch my twitch channel.

Speaker 4 (14:15):
Yeah, and then invite your friends at the table to
go on your Twitch channel.

Speaker 3 (14:19):
So queens are watching me.

Speaker 4 (14:21):
Yeah, it could be a whole channel called bridger Waiting
for a public bathroom to open up.

Speaker 3 (14:27):
Truly only needed to be.

Speaker 4 (14:29):
Yeah, truly only needed to be.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
But that happens almost any time at a restaurant because
usually it's a one person thing.

Speaker 4 (14:35):
Now, how do you feel about there's a there's a
men's and women's and it's you know, it still says
men's and women right right, and there's you're waiting. Say,
you're waiting for the men's and the women's opens up,
no line.

Speaker 3 (14:52):
Oh and there's nobody else that needs them.

Speaker 4 (14:54):
Yeah, and you're waiting for the men's. You've been waiting forever.
This person you can, you amos, You could almost getarantee
it's somebody that works at the restaurant just taking a
little break, right, right, you know what I mean. They're
sitting in there for a long time, and the doors.
I mean, of course you're going to go for.

Speaker 3 (15:07):
It, right, it's just absolutely always there.

Speaker 4 (15:10):
Yes, And I think it's totally I think it's totally fine.
But what happens is you come out there's a woman
waiting there and she's like.

Speaker 3 (15:17):
I've always prepared in my mind. You say, get over it,
don't take it so seriously, come on, this is all
made up.

Speaker 4 (15:27):
Get over your This is all bullshit. This is just
an idea, This is a suggestion. Maybe split it up
based on whatever.

Speaker 3 (15:36):
Yes, come on, it was two minutes.

Speaker 4 (15:38):
Yeah. It drives me nuts when I get a look
after coming out of the women's bathroom, and they should
all be just genderless.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
Yeah, we don't need to sign on events anymore.

Speaker 4 (15:47):
It's just one or the other two up.

Speaker 3 (15:49):
On the bathrooms. Yeah, especially, I mean the one thing
I'll say is the women's bathroom, the line does tend
to pile up more, that's true, And so I'm like,
am I getting in the way?

Speaker 4 (16:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (16:00):
But sometimes you need it, and sometimes you're worried your
friends think you are suddenly having the worst night of
your life.

Speaker 4 (16:06):
Yes, yeah, I was thinking maybe anything you could do
to prepare for that moment, like have a little card,
like like you know, a little card that's like pre
written plastic, right, something that says like, I'm using this
bathroom because there was no line, and I don't want
my friends to think I'm taking a huge poop and
having the worst time in my life. I'm just peeing.

(16:27):
I'll be right out.

Speaker 3 (16:28):
Please find it in your heart.

Speaker 4 (16:29):
Don't look at me weird when I come out. Everything's
totally normal.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
Everything I'm doing in here is legal.

Speaker 4 (16:34):
Yes, I think, yeah on the doorknob. And then somebody
will go, oh okay. You know they're not going to
be like what the hell.

Speaker 3 (16:42):
And while you're in there, maybe you call a friend
from the table to just let them know that you're peeing.

Speaker 4 (16:46):
Yeah yeah, have them come and check on you. Have
them talk to the person outside the door, if.

Speaker 3 (16:49):
You wouldn't mind telling everybody in the restaurant that things
are fine.

Speaker 4 (16:52):
They are fine.

Speaker 3 (16:52):
I am peeing. It's a long pee, So speculating about
what I'm doing in here. Why does everyone care so
much about what I'm doing in the bathroom.

Speaker 4 (17:02):
I don't know, but they do. I've heard people talk
about caring about what you do in the back.

Speaker 3 (17:06):
Very loudly, specifically industry rumors. Oh yeah, the industry is
a buzz.

Speaker 4 (17:12):
Oh my god, what is he doing in there? What
is he doing over so long?

Speaker 3 (17:17):
If there's somebody in the bathroom, come back to the
table and go back.

Speaker 4 (17:20):
Yeah, it's ridiculous. Its ridiculous. Yeah, I you know, I'm yeah,
I don't know if I have that quite as much.
I think I'm okay with like sitting in there.

Speaker 3 (17:28):
I've just stood being okay with the weight.

Speaker 4 (17:30):
Yeah, I'm okay. Like if people come back and they're like,
that's ook a while, I'm like, something's wrong with you. Okay,
there's nothing wrong with me. There's something wrong with your
brain and the fact that you decided to bring this
up in front of all of our friends. I was
actually in a situation like that one really where it
was shooting a movie and there are people whose names
I don't want to shoot it out there, but but somebody,

(17:52):
somebody very funny, Okay. A woman went to the bathroom.
She was there for a while, and then another woman
that doesn't matter, It doesn't matter. Two women, two women.
One goes to the bathroom. She's funny, the other one
isn't funny. And she's there and she's going, oh my god,
what are they doing in there? And the funny one

(18:13):
comes back and she would and the non funny one.
Two women, and she goes in front of everybody, Oh
my god, that took so long. What were you doing
wo And the funny woman goes, I was taking a
big fat ship and then just like totally was totally
comfortable with it, you know, diffuse the situation and good

(18:36):
for her. Yeah, yeah, that's how I feel. That's how
I feel. I'm like, I'm taking a big fat ship.
I'm just like, I don't need the little thing to
put on the door.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
Wow, that's confidence you need to get to that.

Speaker 4 (18:46):
Lit's you know, it's it's not the best kind of confidence.
I would definitely rather have other kinds of confidence, but
I'll take it. I'll take what I can get.

Speaker 3 (18:55):
And I think, actually, I'm going to defend myself a
little bit here. It's a little bit also of I
don't want everyone the table having to think about poop
while the reader.

Speaker 4 (19:02):
Oh, that's considered. So you're considering a little more considerate
than embarrassed.

Speaker 3 (19:07):
Yes, I'm like, I don't want them sick to their stomachs,
gagging down each bite waiting for me.

Speaker 4 (19:12):
Right, yeah, so look, yeah, that's that's what you're on
the right side. And for me, I'm kind of like,
you don't give a ship. I'm like, let me put
it in your head. If it's right there at the edge,
I'm gonna I'm gonna push it all the way in.
I'm just gonna how dare you? Or I'll describe my
ship in detail. Right when you're taking your first bite

(19:34):
of your beef stroging off, you picked the wrong meal,
the wrong meal today, buster.

Speaker 3 (19:41):
And yet you still haven't mend to Costco.

Speaker 4 (19:42):
That's really yeah, not as a member with other people.
As a member, still haven't gone in yet.

Speaker 3 (19:48):
It's a weird experience. As a non member, I always
feel like, what should I be doing?

Speaker 4 (19:52):
Yeah, I don't. I don't know the way in, really
I don't, because I feel like there are certain things
like we got like a big thing of macaroni and
cheese son, which I would imagine is like the smallest
thing you can get right and and I'm like, I
see this thing in our pantry and it's like, I
don't know, it's like forty things.

Speaker 3 (20:13):
Not going to eat all of that, and it's.

Speaker 4 (20:14):
All the same type. I like to go to the
grocery store and maybe try a different waxed up, try
a different brand, try a different noodle, different cheese, sauce.

Speaker 3 (20:22):
Of course, you know, it's another thing where I think
they think bar kind of encompasses it, where that's small
enough that you can kind of just get used to
it being I don't care for this flavor, but who cares? Yes,
but a meal of artificial.

Speaker 4 (20:35):
Official cheese and noodles.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
You Yeah, Oh, it's upsetting.

Speaker 4 (20:42):
It's really upsetting, really upsetting. Yeah, I'm not I'm not
quite there yet with Costco. You'll get there at some point,
maybe when I'm having more parties, birthday parties for my son.

Speaker 3 (20:51):
You know, but did you how did your Costco card
photo turnout? Mine? Not a good situation.

Speaker 4 (20:57):
Oh my god, I don't even know. I don't even
know if I feel like I don't even know if
I have it.

Speaker 3 (21:01):
Oh, I'm never going to get back into this place.

Speaker 4 (21:04):
I in my in my memory I took a photo
and it was like a temporary thing.

Speaker 3 (21:10):
They oh, yeah, like a paper license idea.

Speaker 4 (21:13):
It was yeah, or like I was going to pick
it up later or something. I don't know, maybe because
I was so.

Speaker 3 (21:19):
You're never getting back I'm.

Speaker 4 (21:20):
Never getting back in there.

Speaker 3 (21:21):
Let me. I'm actually going to show you my Costco
card because I think it's worth seeing the image they
picked for me.

Speaker 4 (21:27):
I would love to and I'm going to look at
my wallet to see if I happen to have one.
But look at uh this, Oh my god.

Speaker 3 (21:37):
There's not a single distinguishable feature on this What I
look like a ghost? That is it's like a white silhouette,
almost not there. It's like you only have the features
that could be anybody. Tip of the nose, mouth that
is wild.

Speaker 4 (21:53):
Yeah did you get that in the moment? Were you like, oh,
thank you?

Speaker 3 (21:57):
Yes? This was Yeah. I looked at it. I was like,
I think it was right before closing, so I couldn't
demand a reshoot.

Speaker 4 (22:03):
Yeah, you weren't like, can we play with the lighting here?
This is a little harsh, but.

Speaker 3 (22:07):
Yeah, you see nostrils and eyes. That's all so Costco?

Speaker 4 (22:10):
Could they did you dirty?

Speaker 3 (22:11):
I don't think that they didn't even need to take
a photo.

Speaker 4 (22:13):
No, they're not taking serious when it's washing it out.

Speaker 3 (22:16):
Like ooh, get some nice lighting on me.

Speaker 4 (22:19):
There's no way.

Speaker 3 (22:19):
No, oh oh, have you got it?

Speaker 4 (22:22):
Oh yeah, let's see this. A little washed out too.

Speaker 3 (22:24):
Oh, a little washed out. But you look deeply unhappy.

Speaker 4 (22:27):
They very unhappy. I've already told stories of being unhappy
at Costco getting my my license my and then what else?
What was the other one with the farmer's market. Yeah,
I'm just I'm going nuts crazy. I'm going crazy over
I'm fully well.

Speaker 3 (22:45):
I feel like I should redirect the conversation until you
get before you get in some sort of trouble.

Speaker 4 (22:49):
Okay, sure, yeah, yeah, redirect.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
I mean this could just lead to more problems on
the podcast. And but I don't know where to go
from here.

Speaker 4 (22:56):
I mean, problems are fund you know, it's it's marketable,
it's viral.

Speaker 3 (23:00):
It's conflict. Their sparks, sparks fly. People love to see these.
It's essentially one of these debates. Yeah, and so we'll
see what happens, see what happens. I was excited to
have you here on the podcast today. I thought, certainly
Beck has manners he's been in the industry for a minute,

(23:21):
knows how these things work. Absolutely has some sort of decency.
The podcast is called I said no gifts, and I
imagine you received the famous phone call phone calls. We
have an Allie's kind of call and leave messages, just
making sure sending letters emails with the name of the podcast.

(23:42):
So I was a little surprised. I was a little
floored when you walked into the studio today holding an
absolutely gorgeous gift.

Speaker 4 (23:52):
You You're so welcome, Thank you so much. I appreciate you. Yeah, well,
you know, I I, of course I wasn't going to
bring a gift because that was the name of the show,
and I know I don't want the gifts, but I
just I really couldn't help myself because I was I

(24:15):
just I was like, maybe this is the gift that
changes the podcast, maybe changes the name of the podcast,
changes your attitude, you know. And and so I brought
a gift. I'm not somebody. I'm usually somebody to be like,
we don't need to bring a gift, Like somebody's having
you over for dinner and like, oh you got to
bring some wine or something. It's like like a kid's
birthday party. They don't want another thing.

Speaker 3 (24:37):
Birthday is not happening.

Speaker 4 (24:38):
As a parent of a child. Too many gifts.

Speaker 3 (24:41):
It's just if the child's related to me.

Speaker 4 (24:44):
Yeah sure.

Speaker 3 (24:44):
Otherwise, how many kids birthdays am I going to?

Speaker 4 (24:48):
I don't know, I mean only you know, I could
see a lot.

Speaker 3 (24:51):
I'm a magician. I'm a magician.

Speaker 4 (24:56):
Well but yeah, I brought a gift. You know.

Speaker 3 (24:58):
It kind of comes down to a lack of control.

Speaker 4 (25:00):
Yeah, I am out of control, as we've found out
from the first start of this pod.

Speaker 3 (25:04):
Yes, right, so should we open it here on the podcast?

Speaker 4 (25:07):
I would love to. I cannot wait.

Speaker 3 (25:08):
Okay, sure, are you ready?

Speaker 4 (25:10):
Well?

Speaker 3 (25:10):
Why not?

Speaker 4 (25:14):
There it is.

Speaker 3 (25:15):
Oh and it's in the sleek black bag.

Speaker 4 (25:17):
I found the sexiest bag.

Speaker 3 (25:19):
Yeah, this was really this was a night time bagh. Huh,
this is we're out on the town.

Speaker 4 (25:24):
It might have you know, it might have come with
a bottle of champagne, you know. Now it's in my
my gift wrap.

Speaker 3 (25:32):
And it's got kind of a gold tissue.

Speaker 4 (25:34):
Yeah, some brown and a little gold or yeah, look
at that that's been used before.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
That one was fresh, but this one was fresh.

Speaker 4 (25:42):
Got it? But so the crinkle is fresh. That other
one was was already used. Yeah, look at that. That's
a nice sound.

Speaker 3 (25:49):
I know it's nice. Yeah, Okay, then we're reaching you
guys will take out all the tissue.

Speaker 4 (25:55):
Why not get the stick, get it all out. Let's
see the tip of it poking out.

Speaker 3 (26:00):
Okay, now I'm reaching in.

Speaker 4 (26:01):
Oh there it is, Yay, a wooden spoon for Bridger,
A huge, huge This is actually a walk spoon. Oh walk,
do you have a walk?

Speaker 3 (26:15):
I don't have a walk.

Speaker 4 (26:16):
Okay, Well, you can use it for anything. You could. Honestly,
I immediately think of this gift, and you could use it
for the same purpose. Probably you could leave it in
the bathroom and use the scoop out the toilet.

Speaker 3 (26:26):
Yeah, you're pointing to if the listeners want now seeing this,
he's pointing to the Redneck plunger that we received from
Rob Hubel at one point, which is a gun or
a toilet plunger shaped like a gun.

Speaker 4 (26:36):
Yeah, like a big old shotgun that Beck was.

Speaker 3 (26:38):
Kind of threatening to use before the episode.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (26:41):
I was like, yeah, I was gonna.

Speaker 3 (26:43):
Yeah, destroy the studio bathroom.

Speaker 4 (26:45):
And then use the shotgun plunger. But I didn't do
that yet. It's tempting. It's there, but this is this
is a wooden uh walk spoon, right, created by Kenji J.
Lopez Alt.

Speaker 3 (26:59):
Do you know who he is.

Speaker 4 (27:01):
He's a chef. He's like an internet chef personality or guy.
He's created two James Beard Award winning cookbooks. One's called
The Food Lab. I may have seen it. It's like
a big It's like an encyclopedia book of cooking, like
basically all the principles that one could.

Speaker 3 (27:19):
Want to just lay it all out, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (27:21):
Like chopping, so like vegetables, meat, like every different major
category of sharing food. I mean, there's some specific recipes,
but it's all the basics. And then this other book
he came out with is called It's basically about only
recipes to be cooked.

Speaker 3 (27:41):
With a Walk And do you have both of these books?

Speaker 4 (27:43):
I have both of these books, and I follow him
online and anytime I'm going to cook something, I will
look up the thing I want to cook and his name,
and so The Food Lab his book. What he kind
of became famous for is it breaks down everything to
the science of the cooking, so you can under stand.
He'll be like, this is what's happening with the oil
and how it's interacting with this pan or this meat,

(28:05):
or this is why you let it sit or this
is He'll do experiments like salting a piece of meat,
like sure, ten minutes before, thirty minutes before a day before,
like I'm seeing how it like breaks things down, and
so you like you really it becomes a sort of
like science experiment. Like I've only gotten a little bit
into he has so many things online, but like it

(28:28):
has been it's I love him and he's The way
he talks about food is just so interesting and exciting,
and it's like the stuff he makes. So this he
made he made this specific spoon because it's like the
perfect shape or cooking.

Speaker 3 (28:44):
You kind of invented this spoon.

Speaker 4 (28:46):
Yeah, because a lot of spoons are more like rounded
and so this this is basically go right down. Yeah.
Can I see this?

Speaker 3 (28:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (28:53):
And it's mine. It's right handed.

Speaker 3 (28:55):
Yeah, this is so be careful.

Speaker 4 (28:57):
I do I do want it. I would like to
take it back. This Also it's like where the bowl
is rounded, like it gets a lot of surface area,
like it's perfect. Oh right, But it's also I find
it to be just a good cooking utensil. And it
is large.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
Are you using it to like with regular pans?

Speaker 4 (29:17):
Yes? Yeah, And I'm doing like some some fried rice
with this. I just got my own. So and I
got my own and I thought of you, so were you?

Speaker 3 (29:26):
Did he get you into cooking?

Speaker 4 (29:28):
Or I was already into cooking? But he was really
like he he really helped just make it all accessible,
because you know, your typical cookbook. I mean like there
was the an Alison Roman phase and then she kind of,
you know, fell apart completely emotionally.

Speaker 3 (29:47):
The career got the career, got this gonna come back.

Speaker 4 (29:51):
I mean, she's got her own thing going, I think,
and she's fine, but she's not the household name anymore.

Speaker 3 (29:57):
And we wish her luck do we wish.

Speaker 4 (29:59):
Her all the best here? But it was it was
like people like the two of them, like making things
accessible and like breaking down like fun, interesting sort of
complex things and just breaking them down in easy ways.

Speaker 3 (30:17):
So what sort of stuff have you made from him?
What does he tell you to make?

Speaker 4 (30:22):
I have made a let's see, a reverse seared tender loin.
I got to make every Christmas.

Speaker 3 (30:30):
Oh what does that even mean? Reverse seared?

Speaker 4 (30:33):
It means that you put it in the oven first
at about two hundred and twenty degrees for about depending
on the size of the piece of meat, like two hours,
and you get it to a certain temperature and then
you take it out and then you you what's it called?
You see it afterwards in like butter and rosemary and stuff,

(30:56):
and the slow cooking it at first it to get
to be the perfect perfect temperature from edge tadj So
it's like if you want medium rare, it's perfectly medium
rare all the way through, as opposed to just in
the middle and sort of well done on the outside.
It's sort of like a what is that when you
put when you put when you put something in a

(31:16):
single water souv.

Speaker 3 (31:20):
Yes, it's kind of like it's just like suviede without
the suvide machine.

Speaker 4 (31:23):
Yeah, you don't need a big tangish. Yeah, I've never
done that. But the idea of putting the meat in
a bag and then putting it in some water, and.

Speaker 3 (31:30):
It's very odd odd.

Speaker 4 (31:32):
It's just kind of doesn't really feel like the cooking
that I you know, right.

Speaker 3 (31:36):
Like there's not like the it's not like you want
some level of tactile or like, yeah, just a thing
floating around in water. Slowly getting hot is kind of gross. Yeah,
it's no, I mean outside of like a noodle.

Speaker 4 (31:49):
Yeah, noodles.

Speaker 3 (31:49):
Fine, that's for noodles.

Speaker 4 (31:51):
That's for noodles, not meat. I don't want my meat
floating around in water kind.

Speaker 3 (31:55):
Of swimming through a hot slow cooker essentially.

Speaker 4 (31:59):
Yeah. No, I've also done some very nice oven like
crispy potatoes. You know, you kind of gotta like get
it into a little bath of baking soda and a
lot of salt when you boil it to I don't know,
he breaks his headten it to extract all the moisture
so that one you put him in the oven, they're

(32:21):
like really crunching right right.

Speaker 3 (32:23):
Yeah, a lot of chrispy potatoes. People don't cook the
potato long enough and then it's like crispy or you.

Speaker 4 (32:29):
Go like you try to chart too much and then
it's all dried.

Speaker 3 (32:32):
Out, disgusting.

Speaker 4 (32:33):
It's disgusting. You have to we have to figure out.
We have to make it normal. We all have to
learn how to do it.

Speaker 3 (32:42):
Enough is enough?

Speaker 4 (32:43):
Enough is enough. He also got me really into uh
like a what you might call it like a BLT,
just like talking about how to.

Speaker 3 (32:52):
Do was he doing new with the BLT.

Speaker 4 (32:54):
He's just talking about He's talking about the bread that
toasts best bread. It's like a potato Okay, I love
a potato potato bread. And then like the type of
bacon or like, you know, make your own mayonnaise tomorrow
is like, yeah, that's a little too, but it's because

(33:15):
I've done it, and it's I don't know if it's
worth it. QP mayonnaise is fantastic, right, That's that's the
little the cornerstone.

Speaker 3 (33:22):
Some things you just find a good one.

Speaker 4 (33:25):
And you don't need to make it yourself, right.

Speaker 3 (33:27):
Belt you can. I mean every one of those things
can go wrong in a big way. Bad tomato, uncooked bacon.

Speaker 4 (33:33):
Uh huh yeah, I couldn't agree.

Speaker 3 (33:35):
More crummy bread, yeah, I will say with BLT, I've
kind of gotten to a point where it doesn't feel
like a full sandwich to me. I feel like I
need a club. You have bacon and.

Speaker 4 (33:44):
Turkey, and you need some turkey in there.

Speaker 3 (33:46):
I need some or avocado in there. You have to
there has to be a second thing that's substantial.

Speaker 4 (33:52):
I understand that, But what about just having to Blt's
and just like going back, going back to well, it's not.

Speaker 3 (34:00):
It feels like an incomplete sandwich.

Speaker 4 (34:02):
Yeah, yeah, I understand.

Speaker 3 (34:03):
And I feel like if you put enough bacon in
it to be complete, then it becomes a health concern.

Speaker 4 (34:08):
Yes, yeah, And then you're like, this is not a
light summer sandwich that this is.

Speaker 3 (34:12):
Now some thing's gone wrong in my life. I'm going
through something difficult.

Speaker 4 (34:17):
See I hear that. But I feel like the turkey
just messes with about the crunch, salt balance, creaminess thing
that's happening. Let me ask you this, have you do
you ever? Do you ever have a tomato toast?

Speaker 3 (34:29):
I've never had a tomato toast.

Speaker 4 (34:31):
Okay, so all the listeners, tomato toast is something very simple,
but it's incredible. So you just take a piece of
really any bread. But I would say sour dough. This
is kind of my saying, like I would say my
light lunch of the summer. Okay, this is okay, this
is summertime.

Speaker 3 (34:48):
Tomatoes, summer.

Speaker 4 (34:50):
Yeah, and you put some you could even you could.
I'll even do a platter, okay, big platter, tomatoes, bacon,
some lettuce, some cheese, some excuse me, a little indigestion here,
something was coming up. But nothing popped that for a clip.

Speaker 3 (35:07):
Cut it out.

Speaker 4 (35:07):
That's going on there, that's gonna be viral, and so
I'll put it all out on a board. But so
the tomato toast is like a toasted piece of sour dough.
So something's a little crunchy, it's spongy. And you take
some some mayonnaise, hopefully Qpy mayonnaise, a little lemon, salt
and pepper, and just whip that all up together and
then put that on the bread and some tomatoes with

(35:30):
some salt and pepper. You need the salt and pepper
on the tomato to bring out the flavor. Otherwise you're
just you're absolutely blowing and you're totally fucked.

Speaker 3 (35:38):
Why did you bother?

Speaker 4 (35:38):
Yeah, why did you bother? You might as well not
have the tomato la And it's that it's simple and
you put it on there and the mayonnaise combination, you know,
with a little lemon salt. Incredible, It's incredible. It's honestly,
it's honestly better than a belt.

Speaker 3 (35:54):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (35:54):
Yes, yes, And like like to go back to Kenji,
he'll do something like here's a tomatoes sandwich, two pieces
of I don't know exactly what it's called but it's
like Japanese milk toast.

Speaker 3 (36:05):
I think, yes, delicious bread.

Speaker 4 (36:08):
And he's like, he'll do something where he like takes
the two of them sawtaise, the two pieces right, takes
the sautee side, puts some mayonnaise and tomato and puts
them on the inside. So the outside is fluffy, but
the inside you have a seared buttery crunch that goes
along with the tomato. And it's like, so simple, right,
he does these. He does a lot of things that

(36:28):
are just very simple, but like, my so good.

Speaker 3 (36:31):
It feels like it's just reversing a lot of things.
Yeahs stuff around, things around.

Speaker 4 (36:36):
Yeah. So that's why, you know. And I didn't want
to bring you the cookbook as well because I didn't
want it to look like product placement. I wanted to
be natural. I wanted to set you on your journey
and wherever it can go. You know. I didn't want
to like, I didn't want you to have the pressure
of like, oh now I have to cook all these
the worst. You don't want to give somebody a job.

Speaker 3 (36:54):
As a gift, no, no, no, no no no no.

Speaker 4 (36:56):
So that could be displayed, that can be used in
any fashion you want.

Speaker 3 (36:59):
But you I mean last night I needed a I
mean a baked a pie and I didn't. I kind
of revealed myself as someone who didn't have a pie.
What is this thing? The piper? A pie serving tool?

Speaker 4 (37:15):
Yeah? Is it the same for cake? Because I have
one and.

Speaker 3 (37:17):
We got the same for cake. It's kind of a
triangle to get in the slice.

Speaker 4 (37:22):
There a pie server.

Speaker 3 (37:23):
And I learned my lesson in the worst way.

Speaker 4 (37:25):
What did you have? Did you have like a just
a big just a chopping You.

Speaker 3 (37:28):
Want to know what I used as a cheese slicer,
You know the thing that's like, what are you talking about?
A handheld cheese slicer. That's that kind of a big
spoon humiliate.

Speaker 4 (37:38):
With the little shamy device on it. When you said
a cheese slicer, I thought of the old school like
piece of marble with the wire thing on the hinge.

Speaker 3 (37:46):
Was like, what were you doing you your hand?

Speaker 4 (37:50):
That seems so problematic, so challenging.

Speaker 3 (37:54):
No, I don't know. I guess that cheese slicer has
its place, But no serving pie.

Speaker 4 (37:58):
No, No, it's too rounded.

Speaker 3 (38:00):
It's like it's half the size of a slice of pie. Yeah, yeah,
so now you're just I should have just use my hand.

Speaker 4 (38:06):
Yeah, I would use a chef's chef's knife.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
Chef's Oh that's very stylish and it's very kind of
edgy and dangerous.

Speaker 4 (38:13):
Yeah, and it may not bend as well get into
the pan as well, right.

Speaker 3 (38:16):
But at least it's covering the whole bottom thing.

Speaker 4 (38:19):
What kind of pie was it?

Speaker 3 (38:20):
It was a smore pie.

Speaker 4 (38:22):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (38:22):
About once a year around this time, I start thinking,
I need a s'more, but I'm not going to build a.

Speaker 4 (38:27):
Fire, and it's not it's not right.

Speaker 3 (38:30):
So I made this small pie that was delicious, but
it was a reminder that like amore is about two
by two of those ingredients, and a small pie is
like a half pound of chocolate, a lot you're eating.
So by the time you're done with it, you're like, oh,
I've done something wrong.

Speaker 4 (38:47):
Well, the whole pie, Yeah, I done something wrong. Is
a natural feeling.

Speaker 3 (38:54):
I should reveal that I was alone.

Speaker 4 (38:56):
I was alone.

Speaker 3 (38:56):
I was crying the whole time, and.

Speaker 4 (38:58):
Well that sounds about right, that sounds like the right.

Speaker 3 (39:01):
Just one small slice was oh what's this? But it
was it was delicious. I made him meringue for the
first time, also realized, oh I don't own a blow torch,
which is a nice kitchen thing to have.

Speaker 4 (39:12):
I have a blow torch.

Speaker 3 (39:13):
That's you know, you don't use it often, but when
it comes time i've never used it, you're going to
and when you do, you're going to be like, thank
god I have this around.

Speaker 4 (39:21):
Thank god I have this torch.

Speaker 3 (39:22):
Because last night I had to use I had to
broil in the oven. That's dangerous and the dish was glass.
The fear I had because as a kid, we had
a we had a glass thing left on the stovetop
and an explode in the kitchen. It felt like a
pipe Bombit blown.

Speaker 4 (39:38):
Yeah, that's so dangerous and glass everywhere. So it was
sitting on a burner and it was it was heating on.

Speaker 3 (39:44):
My mom really screwed up that day.

Speaker 4 (39:46):
My mom really fucking blew it. What was your mom thinking?
She just put it on.

Speaker 3 (39:53):
A burner like he was a mess?

Speaker 4 (39:55):
What's wrong with your mother?

Speaker 3 (39:57):
It's time that somebody says the truth about dead. Yeah,
she was a disaster as a parent.

Speaker 4 (40:02):
Thank god somebody finally said.

Speaker 3 (40:04):
Putting your children in danger every morning?

Speaker 4 (40:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (40:07):
Wild, But it was genuinely it was like a traumatic
experience with glass blowing up. So last night I put
this thing in the broiler, absolute panic the entire time,
but then a perfectly toasted marat that's amazing.

Speaker 4 (40:19):
I mean the broiler, you leave it in there thirty
seconds too long, and you're dumb.

Speaker 3 (40:22):
You cannot take your eye off of it.

Speaker 4 (40:24):
You cannot any so you can look through you can
you look looking.

Speaker 3 (40:26):
Through the oven, which is I closed the oven and
so we're looking through the glass with the which is
not an efficient. Why has the oven industry not figured
out how to make that glass perfect to look through?

Speaker 4 (40:37):
Clear?

Speaker 3 (40:37):
Why? Yeah? Why does it? I know, I don't know
what privacy are we protecting.

Speaker 4 (40:42):
I mean I don't even I don't even have a
window because I moved into a house that had a
fancy stove. Oh no fancy.

Speaker 3 (40:49):
You have no way of looking into the no way.

Speaker 4 (40:52):
Of knowing what temperature the oven. I have to get
a little thing to hang. This is like a fancy
French stove. I don't want this. This is nobody. Like
the burners are on the stove are so hot. If
you leave the pan on for too long without the
proper oil or whatever, it's like it's torched. Oh it's

(41:12):
such a delicate thing. It's like I'm like Julia Child's
yeah yeah, and it's like, oh, look how rustic and
cool it is.

Speaker 3 (41:21):
That was my first oven in La you know. I
was like, I'm putting this thing in the oven. I
have no idea what the temperature.

Speaker 4 (41:26):
Is, and I can't see it.

Speaker 3 (41:28):
Good luck to everybody.

Speaker 4 (41:29):
Yeah, no way, I'm We moved into this house two
years ago and it was like wow, cool and I
had I've had to get just tuned into it, you know,
to know it. And now that I know it, I'm
ready to let it go.

Speaker 3 (41:42):
It's going to tear your family apart.

Speaker 4 (41:44):
It might it really might life ruin it. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (41:46):
I need to be able to at least get a peak.

Speaker 4 (41:48):
Yeah, I needed a peak. Just give me. I just
want to know, you know, especially you want to know
if something's in there. Yeah, especially we get Yeah, this
oven is below the ways.

Speaker 3 (42:00):
Oh it's absolutely it's accessible to children.

Speaker 4 (42:01):
My child could come by. He can't get a peek.
He doesn't know that something's in there. He's going to
open that thing, but yeah, he's gonna climb right in
and he doesn't know it's four hundred degrees in there.
He's toast. Literally, it's it's a safety concern, it's a
real hazard. Wow.

Speaker 3 (42:17):
That really for me. First thing, first appliance, I'd get
rid of. You're gonna get rid of that thing. At
some point, you're gonna say enough, exactly what I was thinking.
Who do you think you are?

Speaker 4 (42:27):
Beck?

Speaker 3 (42:29):
Yeah, get the oven that you can see that you're
not Ken J Lopez No, no, no, no, no no. I
think J Lopez alt would he wouldn't want this. No,
if he'll get in touch with you, can you reach out?

Speaker 4 (42:41):
Can you reach out? I'm giving your spoons away on podcasts.
Little a little support would be nice.

Speaker 3 (42:48):
Just let Beck know that it's okay to have glass
to see in for the baked products.

Speaker 4 (42:53):
Thank you, Kenjy, Thank you, Kenjy, thank you Kenji.

Speaker 3 (42:59):
Yeah, but ultimately I had to close the thing because
I was afraid of having glass blown into my face.
And it all worked out.

Speaker 4 (43:06):
It all worked out, and you it all worked out.
You ate the pie crying by yourself and got a
stomach egg and everything was perfect. I like that you
cooked a s'mores pie. I've never cooked. I've only made
a strawberry rubar pie. Which my family did growing up
because my grandma would make it right. And I love
a fruit pie, but I mean more than a fruit pie.

(43:26):
I love like a French silk.

Speaker 3 (43:28):
Oh, I love a chocolate poe.

Speaker 4 (43:33):
Have you never heard of this? You see him at
you see him at the stores. I've never I've never
heard of anybody. I've never heard the of the idea
of somebody making one of these at home. Nobody. I
feel like they can't be homemade, but you see them
at bakeries, certain restaurants. They'll they'll have a Snicker's pie.

Speaker 3 (43:51):
It'll be like a chocolate with caramel and peanuts.

Speaker 4 (43:53):
Oh, yeah, some nugae. I don't know. I don't.

Speaker 3 (43:55):
Yeah, that's a lot of ingredients you're making. I need to, like,
I need to make one pie filling. Yeah, essentially, absolutely.
Then I can maybe make a topping, the meringue.

Speaker 4 (44:04):
I could maybe do a peanut butter thing. I think
a salty, Oh, sort of whipped cream top.

Speaker 3 (44:09):
Oh salty.

Speaker 4 (44:10):
My mom my mom used to make ice cream pies
for our birthday. Oh with an oreo crust. Delicious, incredible.

Speaker 3 (44:17):
I love a I won't do a regular pastry crust.
It's too much stress for.

Speaker 4 (44:22):
Me, it's too much stress. Is it too hard to
get it right?

Speaker 3 (44:25):
Yeah? Like the bar is so high. The every recipe
is always like fifty steps, you have to have ice cubes,
blah blah blah.

Speaker 4 (44:35):
I haven't done the pie crust a lot, but from
being around the pie maker's Thanksgiving et cetera, it always
the marker is the crust. I feel, of course, never
the filling. It's like, did we get the crust right?

Speaker 3 (44:47):
And if you screw up the crust then you just
have a bland like paste.

Speaker 4 (44:50):
Yeah, it's floppy on the bottom. To crust is crumbling apart.

Speaker 3 (44:54):
It's very much like a sandwich if you use bad
bread for a sandwich. Yeah, it's half the thing.

Speaker 4 (44:59):
It's half the thing about the bread.

Speaker 3 (45:00):
It's all about the bread.

Speaker 4 (45:02):
That's a famous a restaurant, great meatball, sup. Yeah, but
it's not about the meatballs. It's about the bread. At
that place, it's all about the bread. All about the
bread bakes fresh daily. Yeah, it's really important. I just
want it's important for more people to know that too.
You want to make a good sandwich, get some good bread.

Speaker 3 (45:20):
Truly. I really feel like this is something that like
just as a society. In the last ten to fifteen years,
we've realized, oh right, that ingredient needs to be good too. Yes,
when you're making a burrito, the tortilla should be good
because that's something you're still eating.

Speaker 4 (45:34):
Yeah, it's a foundation. Yes, I mean I kind of
felt this way. Well. Kenji helped me with this as well,
and not to just talk about meat products with Kenji
and whatever, but like I got into burgers because I
wash and I make a smash burger, which is very
popular now. But I was way ahead of the curve
and I was like very I was like, what are

(45:58):
these burgers that we're eating at home, like at people's houses,
These hockey pucks, these dried out hockey pucks with a
big like half melted piece of cheddar on it. Flavorless,
it's flavorless, and it's just like it's like a big
dry meatball. I was like, this is enough, Like we
can do. It's not that far.

Speaker 3 (46:17):
It's one of the most simple foods.

Speaker 4 (46:19):
It's really easy and all you need is some good meat. Sure,
may I like some onions, pickles, a sauce, some sort
of salt, some sort of salt. I think for me,
a melty American cheese doesn't have to be a craft single,
but they have sure all different variations now, and a
Martin's potato roll delicious, and it's just the good, simple ingredients.

(46:41):
And people have come over to my house and had
these burgers, been like, oh my god, how did you
do this?

Speaker 3 (46:46):
Did it take you a minute to figure out how
to make them properly? Did you have to buy an
iron dispatch?

Speaker 4 (46:51):
I got the iron, I got the right spatula and everything,
the right tools. Yeah, you need the right tools, yes,
but you know, I think that's one of the things
that got me into cooking, was like, you can make
like these nostalgic amaze, whether it's a grilled cheese, cheeseburger,
like just a good salad, like some good vegetable, like
a good just roasted chicken, these basic things, and you

(47:14):
can make at home very simply and have it tastes
better than anything you've ever happened. Right. I was like,
we need to know how to do these things.

Speaker 3 (47:21):
And yet I've never cooked a single thing in my home.

Speaker 4 (47:23):
Really.

Speaker 3 (47:24):
I scrambled eggs, I bake, you bake, but I really don't.
I guess during the pandemic, I made meatballs a few.
This is going to change rice. I'm making pad tie.

Speaker 4 (47:35):
Absolutely, I'm gonna be all over the place. You're going
to be scooping it all around. I mean, yeah, that's
They're going to find a lot of a lot of
good uses for that big old spin. Ye it's a
right hand just so you know, they come left end right.

Speaker 3 (47:46):
Oh interesting, Oh, because yeah, I guess the curve of
this thing requires. I mean, a left handed person would
be absolutely right that what you're doing there.

Speaker 4 (47:56):
Yeah, that's it's very cute.

Speaker 3 (47:57):
It's almost like it's like a kind of car tune
paint brush or something.

Speaker 4 (48:01):
And you know, and there's actually something else in the back. Oh,
there is just a little bit, just a little bit
of something that is some oil. Yeah, I don't know
that I've ever heard of it. I didn't want to
leave you with that. And and now I'm giving you
a job, which is what And I thought about that
when I was putting it in here. I was like, no,
I'm giving them a whole job.

Speaker 3 (48:19):
And I did that changing a lifestyle.

Speaker 4 (48:22):
Yeah, and you don't have to use the oil, but
if you use the spoon, you might want to put
some oil on it and rub it the spoon for the.

Speaker 3 (48:29):
Spoon before you even use it the first time.

Speaker 4 (48:32):
You don't know, No, you can. You can use this
for a while. Okay, you know you don't want to
put it in the dishwasher. You don't want to soak
in water. This the wooden spoon, right of course. But
when it starts to drow it a little bit, you
take the scratchy side of your little uh, your little
sponge there and you, uh, you rub some of that
in there.

Speaker 3 (48:47):
And how do I wash this properly? Just with a
little bit of light soap and water. Absolutely, yeah, just
put this in the dishwasher. No, Bridger, No, you would
put wood in the dishwasher. Put whatever I want the dishware.

Speaker 4 (49:00):
You'll ruin your woods.

Speaker 3 (49:02):
My wedding dress in the dishwak.

Speaker 4 (49:04):
Well, that of course, that actually does work.

Speaker 3 (49:06):
That's a little secret people don't know about I do.

Speaker 4 (49:09):
I do all my dresses in the in the dishwasher,
not my not my shorts and shirts.

Speaker 3 (49:13):
No, no, no, no, that would be ridiculous. But you
drag a big dress out of the dishwasher, hot and wet.

Speaker 4 (49:19):
It's perfect, It fits perfectly.

Speaker 3 (49:24):
Okay, Well, I've never cleaned something or used wood oil
on anything.

Speaker 4 (49:28):
And I don't expect you to.

Speaker 3 (49:29):
This is a gift.

Speaker 4 (49:30):
This I'm giving you this being like he'll never use it.
But I couldn't responsibly give you this beautifully crafted wooden
spoon without the proper right.

Speaker 3 (49:38):
I mean, maybe I throw some of this on a
lather up and lay out in the backyard.

Speaker 4 (49:42):
That's kind of what I was thinking a little bit.

Speaker 3 (49:44):
I feel like my body, my skin could take that.

Speaker 4 (49:47):
Like it works for the wood, why not? Why not
bridge it?

Speaker 3 (49:54):
This is in the same territory as a What is
the other thing that's like a nightmare? You have to
season u iron?

Speaker 4 (50:00):
Yes, a cast iron, cast iron. I have a cast
iron pan and it's it is very frustrating. I kind
of I kind of hate it. There are a lot
of recipes that are like you need a cast iron
for this.

Speaker 3 (50:12):
Right, and it is in pet territory where it's like
you have to take care.

Speaker 4 (50:16):
Of it, yes, and it can it can rust and.

Speaker 3 (50:19):
H and you have to season it. What does that
even mean?

Speaker 4 (50:21):
I don't I don't really know. It's misleading because I
thought when I was given my first cast iron pan,
they were like, you have to season it and like
and you also don't want to wash it because I
thought like seasoning it was like keeping the flavors in
it from the previous meals. You know, that's what it
seasons it, It flavors it or something. But I don't
think that's what it is. Isn't like you're like, you're

(50:43):
just creating a coating. So it's like oil, oh oil
that you're like kind of honestly, that's not a good explanation,
but it's like after you clean it, you're supposed to
put some oil in it and then put it in
the oven and it like bakes into it think and
like like fills in the pores or I don't really believe.

Speaker 3 (51:05):
It any I'm not doing that at my house now.

Speaker 4 (51:07):
I have just straight up what are they called metal pants,
the basic ones. All Clad is the brand, and it's
it's not easy, but it's it's not as challenging as
cast iron. And it's also, uh, it doesn't have the
anxiety of the the what you might call it the scratch,

(51:29):
the which did.

Speaker 3 (51:31):
The scorcher rings?

Speaker 4 (51:34):
NONI you never know what though, because you put one
of those in the oven above four hundred degrees, you
don't know what kind of chemicals you release.

Speaker 3 (51:41):
I don't, right, it's a very like potential cancer issue, right.

Speaker 4 (51:44):
Yeah, it is, but it's like that's something. It's like
you see that, you read about it online, and I'm like,
is it real?

Speaker 3 (51:50):
Then I ignore ignoring.

Speaker 4 (51:52):
I think, well, we're doing fine cancer all the things.
There's everything gives you cancer, and but also so many
more things used to give you cancer.

Speaker 3 (52:01):
I think, oh, yeah, cut out some of those fumes.

Speaker 4 (52:04):
At the factories we're putting out in the streets, you know,
and what the factories we're putting in the water, right,
all that stuff.

Speaker 3 (52:11):
And maybe non sick pans are my smoking Yeah, it's
my dirty little habits.

Speaker 4 (52:15):
And that's nothing compared to smoker.

Speaker 3 (52:17):
Yeah, it's mommy's trees something.

Speaker 4 (52:21):
Are nonstick. I'm so I'm just gonna burn that on
the stove and just smell it up.

Speaker 3 (52:30):
Well, I'm very excited about potentially using the oil at
some point and then using the woodspoon for something.

Speaker 4 (52:38):
For something. Who knows, Well, it's it's a I love.

Speaker 3 (52:40):
A fried rice. Maybe it's time I tried it.

Speaker 4 (52:42):
Yeah, I think so.

Speaker 3 (52:43):
I love because good fried rice. The gap between good
and bad fried rice is massive. There really is if
you get a good one, unlike anything what you put
in yours leftovers.

Speaker 4 (52:57):
It's like, honestly, my fried rice is like rappy, not
to be served to guests. It's often for my son,
for me, my wife, just kind of leftovers some like
some chopped up cabbage, some what else. We got some carrots,
maybe some peas. I don't I don't do that. I
don't do the piece. I don't know. I said that

(53:17):
some people don't many leftover piece to you, I know,
leftover piece. I don't like peas, don't need them. I'll
do some some cucumbers on top, and a little cilantro
with oh, absolutely, and maybe some avocado if we have it.

Speaker 3 (53:31):
Avocado is wrong.

Speaker 4 (53:34):
Avocado is wrong.

Speaker 3 (53:35):
I feel like, where are you putting the avocado and
just kind of like on.

Speaker 4 (53:37):
Top you kind of take a little scoop. This is
not this is not again, this is not how I
would serve it to guests.

Speaker 3 (53:43):
You would serve it to a dog.

Speaker 4 (53:45):
But yeah, but three and a half year old child dog.
That's a lot of the stuff I do cook at home.
I'm like, this is disgusting. This is not for other people,
you know what I mean. It's survival. Russ is healthy ish,
keeping things interesting for me and my family. It's different.
Oh my god, cooking cooking for a fam as a whole,

(54:06):
that's a lot. I do a lot of the cooking.

Speaker 3 (54:09):
Are you cooking daily?

Speaker 4 (54:11):
Eh? I try to. I try to every other.

Speaker 3 (54:13):
Day, every other day. And is it like a plan
ahead or is it like this is what I'll make tonight?

Speaker 4 (54:18):
A little bit of both. I try to keep it interesting,
do new stuff, but often it'll just be like a
go to like some pasta, a canned sauce or a
you know, jarred sauce. Sure, maybe some some turkey or
some spinach that I'm adding to it. Okay, okay, that
sort of thing.

Speaker 3 (54:34):
Do you get complaints?

Speaker 4 (54:35):
Oh yeah, oh yeah no not complaints, just you know, well,
of course for my son, he'll be like, ah, yucky
like or whatever, and then my wife will Jesse, will
be kind of more like it's good. No, I mean
it's good. What do you want? Like, yeah, this is

(54:56):
like one of these classic things we have like once
a week, and like, but.

Speaker 3 (55:01):
Do you have a big winner that you can count on?

Speaker 4 (55:03):
It's really just the pasta. That's what's gonna make everybody
happy every single time. It's gonna be on the table
on time, you know, because it's not new, it's easy.

Speaker 3 (55:14):
So yeah, the thing that will really set me off
and I met. I control myself, of course, but when
I bake something and my boyfriend says it was good,
you should do this with the next time.

Speaker 4 (55:22):
Oh yeah, and it's like, well.

Speaker 3 (55:24):
Just so you didn't like it, yeah, don't don't talk
to me.

Speaker 4 (55:28):
Yeah, just I know. That's something that I've had to
adjust as an adult. It's like, you don't need to
give notes to your partner, you know. You can just
be like amazing and like you know, they'll figure it
out or they won't, doesn't matter. Like it's not worth it.
It's not worth the note.

Speaker 3 (55:42):
If you have your little baking idea, why don't you
try to Yeah.

Speaker 4 (55:45):
Yeah, so that would be worse. The next days he's
baking the same thing. See it's a little different, you know.
So it's a little different. I see, it's a little
not a song in the bottom. Yeah, relationship of relationship.
I was thinking the same thing my Jesse will she
won't give I mean, if anything would be like less salt,

(56:07):
which I have. That was an old note which I
really drawn back on it'll be Oh, it was so good.
You don't have to use every dish in the kitchen
and that or or another react to be like, I'm
only doing half of these dishes and I'm like, okay,
you know what you don't have. I mean, g that's
a constant, you know, dishes in the household're figuring out

(56:29):
the balance and everything. I would never expect her to
have to do all the dishes. Sometimes I use more
than I want, right, And.

Speaker 3 (56:37):
It's a horrible job.

Speaker 4 (56:39):
It's a horrible job. And like just and you know,
it's not as fulfilling as making something. And I like, yes,
this is delicious. You fed us, but the whole the
criticism of use. It was great, but you didn't do
it right. You didn't do it how I would like
for you to do it, or like can you clean
as you go? Oh? And I'm like yeah, I cannot.

(57:01):
I'm like I'm I'm full of just survival mode.

Speaker 3 (57:05):
Yeah, I let's see. I am as clean as I go.
And it's very satisfying. It's uh, you know, by the end,
everything is done and you feel like, wow, look at me.

Speaker 4 (57:15):
I just afterwards there's food is on the table, but
the kitchen is fucked.

Speaker 3 (57:20):
It's totally It's just like to me, now, I'm like, oh,
I'm a psychopath, am I? Soone's going to get away
with murder because I cover my tracks. Oh yeah, that's
what's now clicking for me, And.

Speaker 4 (57:31):
What's clicking for you now is you could get away
with it.

Speaker 3 (57:34):
Yeah, I'm now capable of the perfect crime just through
learning to bake and clean up after my Yeah.

Speaker 4 (57:41):
That's a really good that's a nice It's kind of
like I'm thinking like Dexter style TV show baker or something.

Speaker 3 (57:48):
And yeah, the cleaner upper after himself.

Speaker 4 (57:51):
Yeah, and it's like and it's like a cherry pie
but it's blood and you've got the big knife and
you're like like eating the knife and you're like it's
yummy and it's blood. Is something that's a real cool show.

Speaker 3 (58:02):
That's This is an ideas podcast first and foremost. Of course,
of course, you didn't see the movie Bring Her Back?

Speaker 4 (58:08):
Did you? No? What movie is that?

Speaker 3 (58:12):
It's a tough movie to watch?

Speaker 4 (58:14):
Is it a new movie?

Speaker 3 (58:14):
That's a horror movie? Bring Her Back about a woman
who's trying to bring her daughter back from the dead
using her foster children and it. Oh, it's a tough one.

Speaker 4 (58:24):
That sounds complicated, but I.

Speaker 3 (58:26):
Bring it up because of the putting a knife in
your mouth. There's a scene where you watch somebody essentially
eat a knife.

Speaker 4 (58:31):
Oh no, I'm so sorry to everyone I wanted to
see that. That's not a good idea. Bring her back?
And was it bad? Was it rough? Because it was
not good?

Speaker 3 (58:43):
Oh, it's a very good it's a very well effective movie.

Speaker 4 (58:45):
Okay, it got you. Yeah, it's like tough in that way.

Speaker 3 (58:48):
Yeah, it's not like a crummy horror movie. It's like artful, yeah,
but also potentially the most disturbing thing I've ever watched.
But watching somebody essentially try to consume my butcher knife is.

Speaker 4 (59:02):
I don't need it. I don't need it. Like the
what's the ariaster?

Speaker 3 (59:08):
Oh yes, it's in that category.

Speaker 4 (59:10):
That the with the the one, the one where you
know the the guys are yes. Yeah, yeah, so I
was being very articulate. They're all the jump on off
the cliff, the head smash.

Speaker 3 (59:27):
The head smashing like a watermelon.

Speaker 4 (59:29):
Oh my god. Then it's still there, it's still fresh
in my my eyes.

Speaker 3 (59:34):
Oh yeah, they almost It's almost like a fair style
where you hit the bell, the thing to shoot up
to the bell, but instead we're hitting someone's head on
a rock.

Speaker 4 (59:42):
Yeah. That movie. I could just feel the they can
just feel the flies buzzing around the carcasses that.

Speaker 3 (59:48):
They're Yeah, I mean, I mean speaking of the first
one was Hereditary, where the head can hang off, stick
your head out the window.

Speaker 4 (59:57):
Pop right off. What the hell?

Speaker 3 (01:00:01):
And that's like in the first fifteen minutes, and then
you just have to live with that feeling.

Speaker 4 (01:00:06):
You see. I'm more of a I love a like
a get Out Oh sure, of course it doesn't love
a get Out classic. And then like Drag Me to Hell.

Speaker 3 (01:00:16):
Oh, I love dragging in the woods.

Speaker 4 (01:00:19):
Fun.

Speaker 3 (01:00:20):
Drag Me to Hell has a tough, I believe stapler scene.

Speaker 4 (01:00:23):
Oh yeah, somebody put in like in the head. It's
like funny, it's the it's the witch lady, right, yes,
and she's she's in her car or something, and.

Speaker 3 (01:00:31):
She's a mad hag.

Speaker 4 (01:00:32):
She's a mad hag putting curses on people, blood shooting
out of her nose or whatever it happens.

Speaker 3 (01:00:38):
She's like, it's mad that somebody like doesn't buy something
from her.

Speaker 4 (01:00:41):
Didn't get alone, she didn't get at the bank.

Speaker 3 (01:00:43):
The girls wanted to open her small business.

Speaker 4 (01:00:45):
Yeah, yeah, I just wanted to open a little business.
And our protagonist is like, no, I guess she no.
I think her bosses like, just tell her no. If
you want to keep your job, you tough en up.
And she has to tell this side.

Speaker 3 (01:00:57):
Of small business owners. Ultimately, that's what.

Speaker 4 (01:01:00):
It really is. Yeah, and that's why it works because
it's about something. Yes, that's just it about. Yeah, what's it?
What's it about?

Speaker 3 (01:01:07):
It's about opening a small business. Yeah, about getting a
small business.

Speaker 4 (01:01:11):
Loan exactly, and if not, what it actually feels like
to try to get one of them?

Speaker 3 (01:01:15):
Yes? Yeah, And ultimately you kind of have to drag
someone to hell and become something you didn't feel like doing.

Speaker 4 (01:01:22):
Yeah, a little demon, a little demon, a little yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:01:26):
Well, I feel like we should play a game. Great,
we're gonna play a game called Gift or a Curse.
But I need a number between one and ten from you. Okay,
I need to do some light calculating with the number.
So right now, you can promote, recommend, do whatever you
want while I leave.

Speaker 4 (01:01:41):
Okay, great, and I'm going to promote and do this
by myself.

Speaker 3 (01:01:44):
You're doing it all alone.

Speaker 4 (01:01:45):
Wow. Okay, So just a reminder, I'm I'm Beck Bennett,
and let's see what's coming up. I'm in this this
movie Superman that's coming out on July eleventh. It's a
fantastic movie. I play Steve Lombard. He's a sports writer
at the Daily Planet. He's in the comic books. He
can go check him out. Check out as we get

(01:02:07):
pedia page if you want to learn more about him.
Funny guy, kind of an obnoxious dude, makes fun of
Clark Kent, hits on the ladies. Really fun guy. Incredible movie.
Uh if you want to believe in the world and
people again, go see Superman. Can I keep going? Of course? Yeah? Okay, great?
And I have a podcast coming, my own podcast.

Speaker 3 (01:02:28):
All of this out, of course?

Speaker 4 (01:02:30):
Would you say?

Speaker 3 (01:02:30):
Everything you say from for the next thirty seconds will
be beep because now I didn't realize I had a competitor.

Speaker 4 (01:02:36):
Sneaky competitor. I'm pulling viewers. Yes, it's called what's our
Podcast with Kyle Mooney? Oh my god, on the head gum, Sorry,
another competitor. I didn't even know. I've never promoted a podcast,
my own podcast before. I don't know the rules. Maybe
I'm breaking all of them. But it's a podcast where
we don't know what our podcast is about, and we
have guests on to recommend something and then we give

(01:02:58):
it a shot with them in the moment.

Speaker 3 (01:03:00):
Oh I love that, Thank you. Can you say give
us an example?

Speaker 4 (01:03:04):
Yeah, let's see. We had Claudio Doordia.

Speaker 3 (01:03:07):
I love Claudia the old time.

Speaker 4 (01:03:09):
She's the best, and she was like, your podcast should
be about jeans. And then so we switched studios. We
went to another studio across the hall, and we did
our podcast about jeans where we just talked about jeans
and our association with jeans and how we feel about jeans.
And we had these like segments like sexiest jeans, like
coolest jeans, and we talk about those things and then

(01:03:32):
we kind of incredible, Yeah, we give it a shot
for like twenty minutes and we and then we kind
of afterwards go, how did that go? I think we
keep looking and keep looking for our podcast.

Speaker 3 (01:03:39):
I really liked that idea.

Speaker 4 (01:03:41):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (01:03:41):
Okay, but that will be beeped. So yeah, the listeners like, well,
what were they talking about? What was so racist that
Beck said, yeah that we had to just essent.

Speaker 4 (01:03:50):
We cut it you know, I try to go viral
and sometimes I miss the mark.

Speaker 3 (01:03:53):
Yeah, you push the envelope. That's what you have to do. Okay,
everybody do whatever Beck just told you.

Speaker 4 (01:03:59):
Yeah, just Superman, Superman.

Speaker 3 (01:04:01):
The other thing. Ignore. This is how we're gonna play
gift or a curse. I'm gonna name three things and
you're going to tell me if they're a gift or
a curse and why. Then I'll tell you if you're
right or wrong, because there are correct answers. Yes, okay.
Number one and these are all from our Patreon listeners today.
This is from Aaron Gift or a curse, John Cougar

(01:04:21):
Mellencamp Gift.

Speaker 4 (01:04:23):
Why you know the name alone Cougar Melon Camp. I
mean that's like three things, a cougar, a melon, and
a camp. It's Cougar Melon Camp. I mean, can you
just like think of the place, like welcome to Cougar
Melon Camp. Like that name alone has not even been
unpacked enough. It's fantastic. It's such a rock and roll name.

(01:04:49):
It's almost like it's kind of like makes me think
of Finn Wolfhart, like Wolfhart.

Speaker 3 (01:04:55):
That feels calculated.

Speaker 4 (01:04:56):
Yeah, it really does. His parents. It's tough, and but
John Cougar Mellencamp the name alone, I think is a gift.
And you know, I'm somebody who loves music.

Speaker 3 (01:05:09):
An interesting quality.

Speaker 4 (01:05:10):
Yeah, I also love food.

Speaker 3 (01:05:13):
We got stock from very interesting.

Speaker 4 (01:05:15):
I like clothes, what else? I like sleeping TV? Very interesting.
But I honestly couldn't name a song. But I know
I've rocked out to his music and it's kind of
like kind of makes him like it's it almost kind
of feels like a little old school Van Morrison, kind
of like something my parents would put on while they're

(01:05:37):
having a barbecue. But I really don't know. But I
feel like I like his music and it's more of
a gift. What is the right answer?

Speaker 3 (01:05:44):
Unfortunately wrong curse, and I have to.

Speaker 4 (01:05:49):
I think I don't know much about him as a
person though either, so.

Speaker 3 (01:05:51):
Well, yes, this is why it's a curse. I've been
very public about how much I hate the song Jack
and Diane.

Speaker 4 (01:05:56):
Oh see, I think I'm okay with it.

Speaker 3 (01:05:57):
This may be my number one least favorite song of
all time?

Speaker 4 (01:06:00):
Is it because of the way it sounds or the
lyrics both?

Speaker 3 (01:06:03):
I think it's kind of little ditty about Jack one
of the all time worst pieces of music? Wow, maybe
my number one. I think it's a tie between that
and Red red Wine. They covered by ub forty.

Speaker 4 (01:06:15):
Oh my god. So this is this is a whole
category of my music that I listened to my parents
play growing up.

Speaker 3 (01:06:22):
Okay you for both of those songs.

Speaker 4 (01:06:24):
What do you How do you feel about I am yes,
thank you for saying that. How do you feel about
Bruce Springsteen Love? Okay? Because I feel like a little
like the Jack and Diane. It feels a little spring.

Speaker 3 (01:06:38):
Jack and Diane feels like a store brand version of
Bruce Springs. Yeah, where it's like, let's do that. Yeah,
let's Americana Okay, yeah, chili dogs, let's go for it.
And but this becomes a curse because maybe he's a
nice guy. Maybe he's got other music that I wouldn't hate,
but that you know, stop there, no, thank you, I'm

(01:06:59):
not entering that haunted house. Yeah, and I hope he's
not a nice guy. But if he is, my apologies
to And maybe it's an Oppenheimer situation where he's like,
what have I done?

Speaker 4 (01:07:08):
Right? Right? Right? Right right? You know, he was a
good guy, good intention, but then he right created something
that he didn't know it was going to be that big.

Speaker 3 (01:07:14):
Right open Pandora's Box and has now kind of ruined
my life.

Speaker 4 (01:07:19):
Yeah, but on your to your point, I've never heard
anybody say I love John Cougar Mellon like doesn't never
I know, I've never heard that when people talking about
their favorite artists or albums. Cougar, Melon Camp.

Speaker 3 (01:07:33):
Do not know a single Mellon Camper. I don't know.

Speaker 4 (01:07:36):
Absolutely.

Speaker 3 (01:07:37):
I can't imagine he's one that inspires a lot of
that sort of hardcore fandom. But I could be wrong.

Speaker 4 (01:07:44):
Yeah, yeah, he's a copier. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:07:47):
Okay, so you've gotten one wrong so far. Good luck
with the rest of the game.

Speaker 4 (01:07:50):
Hey, I'm okay with getting them wrong.

Speaker 3 (01:07:52):
Okay, we'll see next. This is from a Heidi gift
or a curse. Washing your hands next to someone in
a pub restroom and performatively lathering longer than usual. This
kind of goes back to a little bit what we
were talking about earlier.

Speaker 4 (01:08:07):
Okay, I mean that specifically, the feeling I'm gonna break
this down, the feeling of, you know, needing to impress
somebody next to you, I think is a curse. But
the result of the actual washing your hands because of that,
and fully cleaning them is a gift.

Speaker 3 (01:08:28):
Okay, but you have to commit to one or the other.

Speaker 4 (01:08:30):
I'm gonna say then it then, Neil, I'm gonna say
it's a curse.

Speaker 3 (01:08:38):
Wrong, This is a gift, and you if you should
have you had the logic there.

Speaker 4 (01:08:42):
Yeah, I had the logic.

Speaker 3 (01:08:43):
You get to be on stage for a minute, you
get to perform, and what happens the social pressure leads
to you cleaning your hands.

Speaker 4 (01:08:50):
Yes, however, okay, but here's my thing. The reason I
switched to curse is because I don't think that you
need to perform the washing to actually wash your hands.
I bet if you're somebody who would succumb to the
pressures of you know, the virtue signaling of washing your
hands for the whole birthday song twice or whatever it is,

(01:09:10):
and really getting in all the crass. Isn't that what
it was? Happy Birthday twice.

Speaker 3 (01:09:15):
I haven't washed my hands five years ago.

Speaker 4 (01:09:17):
That was the whole thing. I don't want to wash
my hands enough. But you know, I just I just
think that you're probably going to clean them well enough,
you know what I mean, And what you really need
to do is get down to why you're doing what
you're doing and who you're doing it for. And if
you're doing it for some stranger next to you in

(01:09:37):
a bathroom, then you have some things to look at.

Speaker 3 (01:09:40):
Well, you don't get the point. I don't care.

Speaker 4 (01:09:44):
Yeah, no, I know that this is cutthroat. I know
that this is not a debate. No no, no, no,
not a discussion. There's a right and wrong. We can
talk about it.

Speaker 3 (01:09:54):
Yeah. Course, there's a very high standard and you have
not met it yet.

Speaker 4 (01:09:58):
Of course. Now that is that. That is that goes
for the rest of my life. There's a there's a
standard that I don't meet and that's okay, and that
feels That feels good. So let's see what happens.

Speaker 3 (01:10:08):
Let's see what happens with the third one. This is
from Candace Gift or a curse when they say the
movie title.

Speaker 4 (01:10:13):
In the movie, Oh my, that's a curse. Why because
it's you're stuck, you know, it's like you're boiling this
whole movie down. It's like you have the you have
the title, you're watching the movie, and then they say
it and you're like, oh, God, like couldn't you just
like So that's that's what I'm watching here is the

(01:10:37):
title drop? You know what I mean? Like, I can't
just be watching the movie and it's called something. You
have to be like, you know, I can't think of
a fake movie name and then say it. But or
like I guess, well, I guess Welcome to Jurassic Park
was pretty cool.

Speaker 3 (01:10:53):
Oh, interesting, But that kind of isn't quite the title.

Speaker 4 (01:10:56):
It's it's not.

Speaker 3 (01:10:58):
Which would be a great title of movie. Yeah, another
movie it would be.

Speaker 4 (01:11:02):
But yeah, can you think of an example where they
dropped the title in a way that's like.

Speaker 3 (01:11:07):
Oh, do you know what I actually watched the other night?
It was a Mike Lee movie, Secrets and Lies. Yeah,
And at one point somebody says secrets.

Speaker 4 (01:11:14):
And Lies And how did you feel when you heard that?

Speaker 3 (01:11:16):
Well, are you done? Answering, Well you done? Do you
want to talk through your thing anymore?

Speaker 4 (01:11:23):
No? No, no to curse, curse.

Speaker 3 (01:11:27):
You failed the game. You failed the game. God absolutely
totally struck out zero ow that's gotta sting ow OW.

Speaker 4 (01:11:39):
I was just hoping for one, for one right answer,
just to like now I'm going to walk away being
like me and Bridger did not connect.

Speaker 3 (01:11:48):
There was no clicking off balance like.

Speaker 4 (01:11:50):
There was, and that's what I came for, was just
a nice connected time.

Speaker 3 (01:11:54):
And it's been very cold, and it's.

Speaker 4 (01:11:56):
Been very cold. He doesn't cook. He's going to use
wood oil for his wood in his rock hard body
because wooden didn't quite work there. But he's gonna get
But that's okay as long as you use the oil. Right,
I'm happy.

Speaker 3 (01:12:11):
This episode is gonna labeled a missfire, huge miss fire,
and that's it's hard to hear, but you tried. I tried.

Speaker 4 (01:12:21):
Yeah, you know, I'm used to it. Like I said,
it's okay. You know, it's really just about having fun
and just kind of being yourself, trying your best, Yeah,
trying your best, not trying too hard, not trying too
hard for other people. Right. You know, now I'm not
sitting down here going like I'm just letting it out,

(01:12:41):
you know, I'm just being myself, and I hope that's okay.
I wasn't coming in here being like guns blazing or anything.
I was just just being the bee and.

Speaker 3 (01:12:50):
You kind of fell on your face and you'll learn
from that.

Speaker 4 (01:12:51):
And that's part of the process, absolutely, And that's in
this business.

Speaker 3 (01:12:54):
In this business, you've got to learn.

Speaker 4 (01:12:55):
You have to learn on camera. You have to learn
on camera in front of in front of your audiences.
That's what people love to see.

Speaker 3 (01:13:01):
Somebody just kind of making their way through the process.

Speaker 4 (01:13:05):
Charlie Chaplin, Yes, left and right, coffy as hell, all
over the place.

Speaker 3 (01:13:10):
Well, it is a gift. Uh, you know, this is
a nice little it's a little wink to the observant viewer.
You know, somebody's gonna say, oh, I remember the title
of the movie, and now they're oh, what an interesting
easter egg. Yeah, I got to hear the title of
the movie that I know. It also might be a
nice like maybe you forgot the title of the movie
and for the last hour and a half you've been

(01:13:32):
kind of sweating trying to remember. You're like, this is
ruining them a really good Yeah, I wish I could
enjoy this, And then you get it and you're like, Okay,
at least the next twenty minutes or so will be
if I can unpack and figure it out, and then
when I see the movie again, hopefully I won't forget.

Speaker 4 (01:13:48):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (01:13:49):
Yeah, And it's a nice reminder. It's good riding of
what you're watching, Yes, bringing you in, Yes, what if
it's the last thing.

Speaker 4 (01:13:56):
What if it's like the ending.

Speaker 3 (01:13:58):
Oh interesting.

Speaker 4 (01:13:59):
I don't know why I'm thinking Gothica. I don't know
if I've never seen that movie. At the end, at
the end, seeing is that halle Berry, I think.

Speaker 3 (01:14:06):
Hallie turns to camera and goes Gothica.

Speaker 4 (01:14:09):
Yeah, now that's a Gothica. That was a big old Gothica.

Speaker 3 (01:14:14):
Credits roll. Yeah, that was the one mistake they made
with that movie.

Speaker 4 (01:14:18):
I know, I know, it's like, it's just you got
everything's got to be just right. Make one mistake in
the movie's crap.

Speaker 3 (01:14:25):
But she kind of demanded in contract, I get to say.

Speaker 4 (01:14:27):
I get to say Gothica.

Speaker 3 (01:14:28):
At the end, she was thinking about the audience. Yeah,
thinking I need.

Speaker 4 (01:14:32):
To kind of sounds like, well, it kind of sounds
like Gotcha. It's a new prank show Gothica.

Speaker 3 (01:14:40):
Yeah, kind of a god show. The hosts and black
lipstick and platform boots and.

Speaker 4 (01:14:47):
They're like Gothica and they're right, that's what they say
at the end when they gotcha.

Speaker 3 (01:14:52):
They turned into a cloud of bats and fly away.

Speaker 4 (01:14:54):
Yeah, so many ideas.

Speaker 3 (01:14:55):
We have a TV show, Yes, we got a TV show.
Two TV shows, and I can't remember either of them.

Speaker 4 (01:15:00):
Well that was that was one and then there was
the baker. Oh yeah, of course they could be a
movie too.

Speaker 3 (01:15:07):
Yes, I feel like but let's you know, let's do
at least three seasons.

Speaker 4 (01:15:10):
Yes, of course, let's make some money. Yeah, you've got
to make a little indication. Yes, make a little dough.

Speaker 3 (01:15:16):
Okay, you failed the game. That's a gift.

Speaker 4 (01:15:18):
Failed the game.

Speaker 3 (01:15:19):
Now Anals needs to atleast does a gift a curse
which we both have to speak to. And this is
probably Look, this is one chance for you to outdo me. Okay, correct,
you might finally get a foot up on me. This
is the most important part, Analis. What are we doing?

Speaker 5 (01:15:34):
Gift or a curse? Watching a movie you've already seen
with someone who's never seen it?

Speaker 3 (01:15:40):
Do you want to speak to this or should I?

Speaker 4 (01:15:41):
Well, you know, there's we don't need an answer to this,
but it's is it a movie you like?

Speaker 3 (01:15:47):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:15:48):
And I'm gonna say it is because you're watching it
again with something right hasn't seen it. I do you
have a thought? Do you have something?

Speaker 3 (01:15:59):
I have a thought?

Speaker 4 (01:16:00):
You go ahead, I have a thought too.

Speaker 3 (01:16:02):
I think that this is a gift. This is a
little for the next one ninety minutes to three hours,
you are going to be You're gonna be the smartest
person in the room. The person next to you has
no idea what's going on, and you're you're thinking yourself,
this naive idiot.

Speaker 4 (01:16:20):
Gothica, I gotica there, I got to go there, And
you're about the about the Gothica right here.

Speaker 3 (01:16:28):
And they're just dumb as rocks for at least the
next few.

Speaker 4 (01:16:32):
Minutes, and they're going and you're yep, yes, it's such.

Speaker 3 (01:16:37):
The power dynamics is so luxurious. You get to just
bathe in that absolutely, and I think that's a gift.

Speaker 4 (01:16:42):
I completely agree. I was going to say a gift
as well. You know, if it was a curse, you
wouldn't be sitting down to watch the movie that you
watch and being like, I've seen this already. Yeah, it's fun.
You're in the driver's seat in a different way. You
get to feel it's almost like, you know, with the
with the wrong person, I wouldn't be this person, of course,
but it's almost like you made the.

Speaker 3 (01:17:01):
Movie part of the filmmaker.

Speaker 4 (01:17:03):
You're like, I showed this to you and I've seen it,
and I'm I am the expert on it. You know,
somebody could. I've definitely been in the position where people
would basically go as far as to like take full
control of the experience.

Speaker 3 (01:17:15):
It's a personality.

Speaker 4 (01:17:16):
Yeah, that's a good personality talking about the behind the
scenes of it and everything, how the shot was done,
whatever it may be. But yeah, I think that for
the person who's already seen it. Yeah, it's definitely a
gift on a lease.

Speaker 5 (01:17:33):
You're right, it's a gift. Oh, thank god, it's a
gift getting to have that kind of power over anybody.
Oh how delicious. Like you said, you get to see
into a future that they don't know exists yet. And also,
this is to me a little insight. So if it
is a movie that you do like and you're with
somebody who doesn't like it, then well maybe you just

(01:17:54):
learn something about them that you need to kind of
stow away for for later.

Speaker 3 (01:17:58):
Maybe the last movie you watch with them.

Speaker 4 (01:18:00):
This is maybe you're gonna break up with them now
if you're more aligned with the movie than the person.

Speaker 3 (01:18:05):
That's right, Yes, exactly, And we always side with the movie.

Speaker 4 (01:18:08):
Always side with the movies in this in this business.

Speaker 3 (01:18:11):
Do you know, do you know what This is a
brief thing. But something that feels longer than watching a
movie with another person to me is showing another person
a song. The agony of the three to four minutes
of being like, oh, try this, and they're if they're
in the room.

Speaker 4 (01:18:26):
With you, especially if you're it's not if you're like
maybe putting on a record and it's in the background,
but if you're like, here's listen to this song, it
is a lot, and you're looking at them and they're.

Speaker 3 (01:18:37):
Kind of like, you're getting closer and closer.

Speaker 4 (01:18:41):
I couldn't agree more. It is so much more intense.
Oh and then because the the reaction is because I
think with a with a song, you can after you
listen to a song, like you like a song, you
listen to it five six times, you're like, it gets
better every time in it you can feel it. But
if you listen to a great song first time with
somebody who's having that experience, you're like, yeah, it's good. Yeah,

(01:19:04):
you can't get to that lee, Yeah, yeah, yeah you can.
It's never going to be as gratifying as as the
movie Torture. Torture. Of course, that could be a curse.

Speaker 3 (01:19:11):
You won the game of the second game. I want it,
we all want, we all want.

Speaker 4 (01:19:15):
We're all winners, which is great.

Speaker 3 (01:19:16):
And on a lise, Now we need to answer a
question people are writing in or sending voice notes to.
I said, no gifts Gmail dot com with some sort
of requirements for the voice note.

Speaker 5 (01:19:27):
They should be under sixty seconds and please record them
in a quiet room.

Speaker 3 (01:19:31):
Okay. So they should be an hour long, recorded in
a busy grocery store okay, or on the back of
your motorcycle. Should we do a voice note?

Speaker 6 (01:19:41):
Hi, Bridger, Onalise and guest, I have a question about
how to respond to a friend who insists on referring
to my normal life as a lifestyle. I'm in my
mid thirties, single, no kids, and she married, has kids,

(01:20:01):
stay at home mom and will frequently say things like,
well with your lifestyle, x y z am. I wrong
to not like my normal life being referred to as
a lifestyle. How should I respond to this?

Speaker 4 (01:20:15):
Thank you?

Speaker 3 (01:20:17):
Mm hmm okay. So I have at least one listener
whose life is a mess. They're out of control. Ah,
and they have this lifestyle that I don't approve of,
and now they're asking me for advice. Yeah, that's an
interesting one. And she's got this friend who's trying to
kind of set her straight, right, And instead of you know,
conforming to whatever the friend wants, she's turning to a podcast. Yeah,

(01:20:40):
how do you deal with that friend who has this lovely,
gorgeous life. She's made all of the right choices.

Speaker 4 (01:20:46):
Absolutely, not she's in a hellhole.

Speaker 3 (01:20:51):
Yeah, she's in a hellhole, a downward spiral. Absolutely, And
she obviously doesn't see anything wrong with him.

Speaker 4 (01:20:58):
No, No, she's stuck. When you're in hell, you don't
know you're in hell. No, it's only when you get
out of hell that you know you were in hell.

Speaker 3 (01:21:04):
Yes, you all know that. And her friend is panicking,
she's she's saying, how do I help?

Speaker 4 (01:21:09):
Right? Right?

Speaker 3 (01:21:10):
Why don't I just kind of subtly pass aggressive nature,
call it a life stay. Maybe she'll pick up on
this friend is so dense, This.

Speaker 4 (01:21:20):
Friend is so dense. Maybe I'll just have a little
pause in between life and style. Well, you know, with
your life style, say it in a different way, and
maybe I'll help her that way.

Speaker 3 (01:21:29):
This friend is approaching air quotes, you know, lifestyle.

Speaker 4 (01:21:33):
Lifestyle, A little handwave of your lifestyle. That's all a
little dance, move your lifestyle.

Speaker 3 (01:21:44):
Purely in the service of trying to help her mess of.

Speaker 4 (01:21:46):
A light right, and she's turning to us. She doesn't
even know who I am. I know too, it's very risky. Now,
now do you what do you? What do you have
to say to this?

Speaker 3 (01:21:58):
I mean, I don't know that this person should continue
listening to the podcast. I need to cut these people
out of the podcast. We have a kind of you know,
everybody that listens to this podcast is on the straight
and arrow has at least two children, a loving husband, god,
and a gorgeous car and backyard.

Speaker 4 (01:22:13):
You got to have a backyard for the kids to
run around. Yeah, and maybe a driveway to wash that
car on the weekends.

Speaker 3 (01:22:19):
When you're feeling like washing the car.

Speaker 4 (01:22:21):
Yeah, No, you don't have to.

Speaker 3 (01:22:22):
You don't have to. You could just go to the
place you know your detailer.

Speaker 4 (01:22:27):
But to do it at home, it's it's when you,
it's when you kind of it's an intimate action.

Speaker 3 (01:22:30):
That's right. You throw your bikini on, you're.

Speaker 4 (01:22:33):
Really giving your car some tender, loving care. You're slipping
a spider loving car. Great car wash, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:22:42):
And ideas podcast, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:22:43):
An ideas podcast. Left and right, I mean, you know, do.

Speaker 3 (01:22:48):
You wanna I mean, do you have any advice for
this person? The lifestyle?

Speaker 4 (01:22:52):
You know, she's saying lifestyle because she's she's jealous.

Speaker 3 (01:22:58):
Yeah, because her life sucks.

Speaker 4 (01:23:00):
She can't. She can't have a lifestyle when you have kids?
She did she say two kids?

Speaker 3 (01:23:04):
Two kids who she's thinking to put up for adoption.
Of course she is.

Speaker 2 (01:23:08):
She can't.

Speaker 4 (01:23:08):
People, are you kidding me? Who wants a life when
you can have a lifestyle. I mean so, I think
in a way it is actually a compliment. It's like, oh,
you get to have a lifestyle. You get to choose
what you do in the morning or at night or
any time you are not like, fully, I only have

(01:23:29):
one child, and like that was such a life style chance.
And then now you talk to I talked to parents
who have two kids, and they're like, one is an accessory,
that's what they say. Two is a lifestyle. I'm like,
this is this is not a lifestyle change. So two kids,
it's a lot, you know. That's she's probably not even
seeing her.

Speaker 3 (01:23:48):
Husband increasingly distant.

Speaker 4 (01:23:51):
Yeah, they partner off. Kid one takes the other kid.
They're not seeing each other. So she is my advice
for you to be able to handle it is she's
she's jealous, she wishes she had a style.

Speaker 3 (01:24:05):
And you make her nervous.

Speaker 4 (01:24:06):
Yes, absolutely, she she's like, oh, that must be nice
with your lifestyle. You can just go have a glass
of wine with a friend at five pm or whatever.
You can just sit in just watch TV in bed
and go to a yoga class whenever or whatever. So
you know, that's that's to our to the listener. That's
how you do. That's deck might help you deal with that.

Speaker 3 (01:24:28):
Sure, Maybe start using the word yourself.

Speaker 4 (01:24:31):
Yeah and mean yeah, I would say, start talking about
her life as a lifestyle, right, because that was a
lifestyle choice. She decided to have tea.

Speaker 3 (01:24:38):
She has a lifestyle as well.

Speaker 4 (01:24:39):
I would say, though, like having kids is kind of
like reaching some level of fame through at least through acting.
Like people with acting people say, well, you chose this.
It's like I didn't want to be famous. I was like,
I wanted to do theater.

Speaker 3 (01:24:50):
You chose.

Speaker 4 (01:24:51):
It was like, I was, you chose it. You didn't
want to be an actor. You wanted to be famous, and.

Speaker 3 (01:24:55):
I wanted to be bothered.

Speaker 4 (01:24:56):
Yeah, I wanted to be I didn't want to You
wanted to walk down the street and have people scream
at you.

Speaker 3 (01:25:00):
That was ultimately your childhood's dream was how can I
be bothered? Nonsense?

Speaker 4 (01:25:05):
Yes, and have people just like wanting to take photos
with me with these phones that don't exist yet, and
it's being like capturing my every move. Yeah, it's kind
of like having a kid. It's like, oh, I want
to have a family, and then you have a family
and you're like, well I didn't want this. No, it's
it is fantastic having a family, but it is like
one of those things where you're like, oh, it's a

(01:25:26):
lot zoom. But you should start calling her lifestyle.

Speaker 3 (01:25:30):
Start throwing it around about everybody in your life.

Speaker 4 (01:25:32):
Absolutely, Yeah, make it, just throw it around.

Speaker 3 (01:25:34):
Become somebody that they write in about you to the podcast.

Speaker 4 (01:25:37):
Absolutely, and let her have a problem with the lifestyle,
right choice of words, and then you can be like, well,
that's what you say about my life.

Speaker 3 (01:25:44):
And that's a big friendship ending fight.

Speaker 4 (01:25:47):
That's when you fight. That's when you grab your big
spoon and yeah, finish her off, get the spoon, finish
her off. God damn it.

Speaker 3 (01:26:00):
Well we answered the question perfect.

Speaker 4 (01:26:01):
I think it was perfect. I think we gave her
some inner piece and also some action.

Speaker 3 (01:26:06):
You know, an actionable item item?

Speaker 4 (01:26:10):
Is that a thing that people say.

Speaker 3 (01:26:11):
I think an actual item is a thing, right, It's
like a thing you can maybe is it a therapy
thing where it's like, this is something that you can
do to correct whatever's going on.

Speaker 4 (01:26:21):
It feels like a therapy thing.

Speaker 3 (01:26:22):
Yeah, because I don't feel like if a boss was like,
here's an actionable item, here's something you can do, that's
I'm leaving the office. Yeah, I don't want to be here.
But it is an actionable item, and hopefully this is
the first step to getting out of her disgusting lifestyle.

Speaker 4 (01:26:36):
Absolutely good luck, good having some direction and purpose and
then creating a person and something.

Speaker 3 (01:26:44):
Well, beck, I have my spoon, I have my oil.
I'm so thrilled.

Speaker 4 (01:26:51):
What a what a given? Now I'm looking at the
other ones and yeah, what a what? It's going to
go perfectly if you want to put it here.

Speaker 2 (01:26:57):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:26:58):
Occasionally an item comes to the podcast that I do
just take home and it becomes part of my life style.
And this is one that's going to go in a
kitchen drawer. How could I not use this? Yeah, you know,
a gorgeous spoon.

Speaker 4 (01:27:10):
Honestly, you could that could it could just be a
decoration the wall. Nail it to the wall, ye, nail
that just put a couple of nails in it, right
into the wall, so you can't even take it off
and just be like that. That's my cookings and it's
locked into the wall.

Speaker 3 (01:27:26):
I'm saving it for a special occation.

Speaker 4 (01:27:28):
It's for Christmas. Take it down on Christmas.
