at that you're no doubt going to be hearing and
(00:22):
staring at if you watch any of the platforms. Government
shutdown still going on. Well, it's been over a week
and it's started. It's going to start to really hurt
a lot of people starting next week. And peace broke

who is like that guy. He seems nice, He is nice,
sort of the host of the Fork Report tomorrow from
two to five pm and you can reach him into
social address a Fork reporter and I love doing this.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
So what do we start with?
Speaker 1 (01:05):
What is the most important item we could ever do
in food and that's Costco.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Did I go to Costco yesterday?
Speaker 1 (01:11):
I did go to Costco yesterday and there I noticed
that the food court where quite often I eat lunch
and food both coming and going. I'm going into Costco
and I'll grab a piece of pizza.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Okay, you grab a slice of pizza. Yeah. You go in, Yeah,
you have all the samples.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Then all your way out, you grab a hot dog Annesota.
That's actually correct. Wow. And I spend five bucks or
whatever and you look great. Quite honest for you. I
don't understand it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
So anyway, Costco, and this doesn't happen very often, but
I go into the food court and they have new stuff.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Yeah, they do on occasion.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
They sometimes it goes over like a turt and a
punch bowl, like when they got rid of the Tcheudeau.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Oh I know it had those chocolate cookies. Give me
a break.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
Yeah, the chocolate chip cookies that are twenty five hundred calories.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah, and they're horrible. I think I haven't had well,
they're not that good. The churros were phenomenal.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
People love and churros are I mean, they don't cost much.
I would imagine the chocolate chip cookie is actually more
expensive to make, but a lot of people still smarting
about that. But Costco Fruit Court added a caramel brownie
Sunday for only.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Two ninety nine and.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
It's people are loving it now. Some say that it
mirrors the Sam's Club. They had a brownie, they have
their own Brownie Sunday, but they go back and forth.
We don't have as many Sam's Clubs out here. I'm
trying to think where the nearest one is. You've never
had a You've never dipped your toe in another sam Club.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
I've never been in a Sam's Club really, right, Okay,
And they have the not exactly new, it's been around
for a little while, but that turkey and Provoloni sandwich,
which is oh that massive sandwich to Costco enormous.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
And pizza is always there. Pizza. It's a little greasy,
but it's so what you do. The crust is not
real crispy.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
I like their dewey Costo which and you have to
take the napkins and blot off.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Yeah, probably, but it's very very good.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
And their hot dog dollar fifty will never go away.
A dollar fifty and the drink for a buck fifty.
Well here's two things.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
So now Costco has this particular new item which is
the Sunday, the Brownie Sunday.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
But do you remember that really.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Good Costco chocolate cake with the shavings of chocolate on top,
and it was fudgy and delicious throughout. That went away
sometime ago, and now there's a chocolate fudge cake that
they brought back. The only difference that I can see
at this point is they don't have those chocolate shavings
(03:58):
on top. Otherwise it looks like the exact same cake.
And that is back at Costco now at the food court. No,
this is inside the bakery, okay.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
And is it a bout cake.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
No, it's a it's a layer cake, ground layer cake,
which is you know my favorite.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
I love a good layer I'll tell you the thing.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
The one thing at Costco that they're actually poor at
their bagels. Their bread is spectacular, Yeah, they got great bread.
I don't like their bagels.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Bagels are weird though they're not very particular about bagels I.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Am you need. First of all, I don't think they're
real jew bagels at all, which you say are toothy
and chewy. Yeah, just you have the perfect chew and
the crust.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Which is they've been boiled so they have the tight
skin on the outside.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
That's a lot of us. I don't need to know that.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Okay, let's take a okay, back we go and Trader Jokes.
I happen to like Trader Joe's my two favorite places
to shop, or of course Costco.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
And Trader Hey.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Before we get to trade of Joe's, I wanted to
give you a heads up on something recently. We were
talking about corn dogs on the air and Amy and
I were singing the praises of the Little Red Wagon
in Disneyland on Main Street because they're phenomenal. But you
said something, you said you can't you were having problems
finding corn corn dogs that were beef at the store
(05:23):
at the supermarket. Yeah, so guess what's happening. Wiener Snitzel
is putting out frozen corn dogs now.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
And I love their corn dogs.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
So they are putting I know because you and I
used to go just right over here, yes, right down
the street from the station.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
We'd go eat them here.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
So they are putting their standard one, and then they're
putting one with like queso or cheese, spicy cheese or
something like that in it.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
But my understanding is they're beef, all beef, So.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeah, that's a real corn dog. I've never understood chicken
corn dogs.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
You go to the fair.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Those are real corn dogs, none of this chicken crap
and wiener Stitze.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Real corn dogs. And you want to taste the horns
and the dives.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
And I'm assuming Disneyland, those are real beef hot dogs.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
It is so magical. I know chefs that are like, yeah,
that's the best corn dog I've ever had in my
entire life. It really is quite spectacular. But now on
to Trader Joe's. They've got some new products under five bucks,
and these really caught my eye. I love this. Now
I know you're not a balsamic vinegar guy, if I remember, no,
(06:36):
I am are you?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Okay? I thought you were. I thought you're like.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
And but no, good good balsamic vinegar from Italy for example,
from modern now, but we're talking about twenty five year
old balsamic vinegar.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I mean you know this stuff is Yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
You like them like you like your new wives. The
peach flavored glades and viscous bro that sounds like the
worst wrap team in the world. Ladies and gentlemen coming
to the stage. Thick and biscuits, yo yo yo, okay,
(07:15):
peach flavored glaze to ninety nine. But this is a
a balsamic vinegar peach glaze that you can get there
at Trader Joe's.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
That looks delicious.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Also, this one what a magic combination goat cheese and
caramelized onion wrapped like Barrioli.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Ohne nine baby. So how magical is that? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (07:43):
So that's a that's a great appetizer there, that one
they have these protein pancakes. Protein pancakes are starting to
become popular right now, and those are just you know,
higher protein pancakes and in this case they're made with
cottage cheese, egg whites, oak flower.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
These kinds of sound was disgusting real quickly.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Uh, Trader joe as you go in, either you get
it by mail or you're going to the store. The
Fearless Flyer their monthly sort of news magazine. You read
it and it's the best written stuff. I don't know
who writes the call. It's hilarious and it's wonderful.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
You want to buy everything that's in the Flyer. There
was a there was.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
A company that I think recently closed its doors, but
it's been him around for a long time online called
Sci Scientific. Something that you could buy like use science
equipment and things like that.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
And they wrote like that.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
They wrote it's with tongue in cheek, but also described
something so wonderfully that you want to, you know, you
want to.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Buy it, and say things like our buyer was in
Italy and ran across, uh this vineyard and said, you've
got to buy every last one to bring him to
the States.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
And yeah, so so Trader Joe's has a lot of
really there for their false stuff. Those were some things
that stood out. In addition to they have the simmit
Turkish sesame bread, which sounds delicious as well. They just
have a good variety of things.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Yeah, they just they're so inexpensive relative to other stores.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
They're so reasonably priced. Hey, we just had.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Had time for one more and that is a new
limited time cereal which we used to never see hitting
the shells. My favorite one is smoked macrol oat flakes.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
It's delicious, especially with a raw oat milk to really
add to it. That's gross, this one. I love cereal.
I don't know what it is, but it's a comfort
food to me. I love being able to pour a
bowl of cereal. I even like hot cereal. Your cream
of weeds, that type thing, your grits, those types of things.
(09:52):
But there's a limited time cereal that just dropped and
it sounds delicious. It's from the folks that bring you
the honey Bunches of Oats, but this one is sugar
cookie flavored.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Oh for the holidays, right, I love a.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
Good sugar cookie, So Honey Bunches of Oats they're introducing
this first of its kind holiday flavors, sugar sugar cookie.
And it's all their crispy flakes and other crunchy oak
clusters and all of that, but instead of you know,
the honey, it's going to be that buttery goodness that
we love around Christmas.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Yeah, you know, we've been talking a lot about additional flavors.
You know. The other day, I was in the supermarket
and I happen to go down the cookie aisle and I'm.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Looking at what's happened to stumbled. I bought a couple
of cookies.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
But I go down the cookie aisle and I'm looking
at Oreos. They had eighteen different kinds of Oreo cookies.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
Absolutely, sorry, I just took some letter. Absolutely they're known
for it, and some of them are kind of they're
more novelty, and they come and go and then some
of them are are so beloved that they stick around.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Now, I mean the traditional oreo, but the super thin oreo,
the extra thick cream oreo.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
Yeah, and then you have stuff like you also have
like birthday cake oreo, which is pretty tasty, smoked mackerel.
In the smoke macrel. I know you're not getting enough
mercury in your life.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
What's the problem.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Yeah, Well, if you can take your temperature with fish
sticks these days, you know.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Okay, we are done.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Okay, it's ask Handle anything, and the rules are the same.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
You record these questions.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
I have no idea what they are, and Neil chooses
them and the whole point is to embarrass me. I
hear them for the first time. And this is how
we do it on Friday Kono.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
First question, This is Cally from Riverside, California. My question
for Bill Handle is are you an atheist? Do you
believe in God? That's my question.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Boy, that's a good question. She was asking, you know,
yeah she was, and she was whispering, yeah she was.
You know, am I an atheist?
Speaker 1 (12:07):
I don't know if I call myself an area I
am agnostic guy, because it's hard to say there is
no God, because you don't know.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
If I were you, I wouldn't believe in God. E
free time I look myself in the mirror, I.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Go, I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
If it's hard. It's all a leap of faith anyway
to a certain point. Yeah, so I don't know. So
I would consider myself an agnostic. So that's fair. Also,
people have an interesting time because I'm also Jewish. But
how can you be a Jew and be an agnostic? Easy,
because it's too It's a cultural thing as well as
a religious thing.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
There's no Christian culture. There's no Christian.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
There is because my wife, who's an agnostic as well,
she is a She's a social Christian, meaning she celebrates
Easter and Christmas and those types of things. Okay, so
I mean, but yeah, it is different in the Jewish beliefs.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
It is all right.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
But yes, I'm an agnostic, not an atheist. Okay, moving on, Chris.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
See, whatever happened to the necrophilia victimless crime that you
used to do around Halloween?
Speaker 2 (13:19):
I don't remember hearing it. YEA a very long time.
Good question.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
And by the way, every year around Halloween I would
do a segment necrophilia the victimless crime. Why, because you're
stopping a dead body. Disgusting as it is, So it's
not a human being, it is not. It's for example,
like stooping a car or putting your privates into a
(13:46):
k not hole in a tree. I used to do that,
but very concerned about splinters. So are you giving splinters
to the tree. Yes, so that's very funny. So what
ended up happening? And it was the victimless crime because
there's no victim there when you think about it in
terms of the recipient of the sex.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
I'll tell you why. I no longer do it. They
made it a crime. It's no longer and he's not
a crime. No, no, is it desecration or no?
Speaker 1 (14:16):
No, no, nope, nope, you could you could stoop a
dead body.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
I mean, listen, I've been married for it's now a crime.
Thank you for it was somebody all right? By next question?
Speaker 5 (14:35):
Oh, good morning, Oh now I really want to have
a fluffer nutter this morning, because you need fluff, fluf
fluff to make a fluffer nutter, marshmallow fluff and lats
of peanut butter. Hey, guys, have a wonderful wonderful, great,
great day.
Speaker 4 (14:53):
That's because Cono talked about the other day, No, and
I thought she was so wonderful.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
Crazy.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Let me ask, is that a crazy person that works
in porno films? Fluffer dutter? I don't know the answer
to that.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Fluffer No, Okay, one more question before the break.
Speaker 6 (15:15):
So I was wanting to know from Bill Handle, when
you were a young boy coming to America, you went
to school with an industrial lunchbox. Everyone else had theme
or characters type lunchboxes. So, thinking back when you were
a young boy, which was the character of theme lunchbox
you wanted the most and wish your parents would have
bought for you.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Yeah, that's the story I used to share, coming to
the United States and not speaking English and coming from
a different culture. My dad was a Union electrician, and
you would take those industrial lunchboxes, you know with the
thermis in the top and that had the arc in it,
you know, And he would give me those and I
was hugely, hugely.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Embarrassed by it because I was just out of it.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
And so I would take that to school and it
was just Oh, the kids made so much fun.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
They thought it was a casket. No, it was Yeah,
but it was rough.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
It was rough, and so I used to share that
lunch box story.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
And that's a good question. What and all the other
kids had the character lunchbox? What Batman? When would wait?
What year was that? Nineteen fifty seven?
Speaker 7 (16:20):
Maybe?
Speaker 4 (16:21):
Okay, would it have been Howdy duty or something?
Speaker 2 (16:26):
How do you duty?
Speaker 1 (16:26):
It was a Davy Crockett was a big one. And
so the answer is which character. I am still in
therapy over that issue. I just wanted to let you
know that it's been a lot of years. My therapist
is still looking into that.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
See you striking me as the type of person who
loved what was in the lunch box more than the
box that came in.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Knowing you know, you know, that's the other thing. And
I even shared this in years, But that's the other thing.
Is my dad, you know, this was he didn't know
from white bread. He lived in Europe, so it was
rye bread. And all the kids had, you know, sandwiches,
and they cut the crust off and yeah, they were wrapped, yeah,
(17:06):
and they would share. And what my dad used to
do is give me, give me a baloney sandwich on
two pieces of ride bread, one slice of baloney.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
And during the end.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
And we're talking hot, hot days here in southern California.
And I'll never forget, you know, opening the lunch box
watching these other kids eat those sandwiches, and I would
look at mine. I'd see, you know, the bread in
one corner and the other corner, and I would the
baloney had stuck to the side, and I would peel
it off and I'll put it between the bread.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
That's why I'm in therapy. They didn't wrap it. It
was just for nothing.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
My dad old school, they didn't have wax paper in Europe.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
They didn't know from wax paper. So your mom in
the fifties or your dad in the fifties was making
your lunch. Yeah, my dad always made my lunch. Yeah, okay, no,
Hi Bill.
Speaker 8 (18:01):
I was wondering what kind of ed meds you use,
whether you use viagras cialis or one of the combination
ones like Hymn's or ROW or something like that. You
seem like a kind of guy that I would probably
try them on figure out which one was best. So
I just was curious which one you currently use?
Speaker 1 (18:16):
All of them try before you buy, Yeah, all of
them and the and the pump. I might add because
that's helpful too, and watching Porno while I'm trying to
do this.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
By My favorite porno by the way, is Barnyard Love.
That's the Barnyard Love too, Gidia. All right, moving on
a kono.
Speaker 7 (18:41):
Bill Thunderous Thursday. That way, you can complain about anything
you want as long as you want every week. I
know you do it every day anyways, but at least
it's dedicated to you.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
That's a great idea. Thunderous Thursday not bad. Okay, we're
gonna come to the point where we actually are going
to get a name for Thursday.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Uh what do we have?
Speaker 1 (19:06):
We of course have Taco Tuesday, we have Humpday Wednesday.
Do we have Monday? Do we have a name for Monday?
Speaker 2 (19:15):
I don't know. Isn't it like morose Monday or maybe
Monday Monday? Maybe?
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Well, but that that that's a that's actually a good idea. Okay,
moving on moronic Monday.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Hey, how about tantrum Thursday t A and t r
U m Thursday.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
Well with you, it should be tan Trump.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
And by the way, I know how to spell tantrum,
but thank you for that. But you're right, tan Trump Thursday.
That's actually a good idea.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Well you do it Monday through Friday.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Yeah, I do so we Yeah, I thunders Thursday right
now it sounds pretty good and moronic. Monday sounds very good, Amy,
so I will get there. And Friday we already have
foody Friday, which is you know something we do all right?
Moving on, if we have another call?
Speaker 9 (20:06):
Hi, Bill, this is a real West Virginian here. You
have made remarks about eating squirrel over here on the
East Coast. Have you ever tried squirrel? And do you
have a favorite squirrel recipe?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Ooh, first of all, not the East Coast. Very few
New Yorkers eat squirrel, so it's basically the South, you know,
like they talked the way this gentleman speaks.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
You know, have I ever eaten squirrel?
Speaker 1 (20:34):
I have not, But then I've never had a car
in my front yard that's on cinder blocks, either I have.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Hey, would you yeah?
Speaker 1 (20:44):
I think yeah, I think I would. Did you ever
have guinea pig in yes? Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, we
had guinea pig, which is pretty good.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
I'd have some weird it not poy put what is it?
What do they call it there? Guinea pig? No, they
don't call it Guinea pig. I don't remember, but I
remember they they know their name. All right, Moving on plenty,
we have another question. I listened via iHeartRadio.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Why are your commercials continually in Spanish language?
Speaker 9 (21:21):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (21:21):
You know, I don't know? Moving and money? You know
what was that listening?
Speaker 4 (21:27):
I'll tell you what it what it is mostly because
those are they buy them in bulk across, you know,
and then they buy you know what. It's the way
they sell them, and it just gets put on our feed.
It's not four kf I in particular, just gets put
(21:48):
into a feed.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Yeah, the whole world the waste. That's why you'll.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
Hear the same commercial twice online, but you won't hear
it on the It's not the same as what's on air.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Okay, one more I think and we'll finish it up.
Speaker 6 (22:01):
Hey, handle, you're supposed that best friend Neil thinks when
you die, you'll burn in hell because you don't believe
his version of the Great Daddy in the sky.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
How do you feel about this?
Speaker 1 (22:13):
I'm thrilled because frankly, all the interesting people in the
world are in hell. People go to heaven are just
boring as as hell. So yeah, I'm fine with hell
and Neil. Neil is a very interesting guy. He and
I have had lots of conversations about religion.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
And all of them end with you going to hell. Yeah,
because his version of the Daddy in the sky, Big
Daddy in the sky. All right, God, I'm happy to
debate any of this. I like the name Big Daddy
in the Sky. Is that good? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (22:48):
They're actually playing the Sahara stage any point.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
I love the when I watch football, when there's a touchdown,
you have the player point to the sky as if
thank you God or thank you Jesus. I had no
idea what do you do when God or Jesus likes
both sides?
Speaker 2 (23:06):
And I didn't know that God watched football either. Oh,
he's a big sports fan.
Speaker 4 (23:10):
We're glad that Ann producer An isn't God, because she'd
be like Dodg Jersey.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
All the time. Okay, we're done, guys. Okay, what a Friday?
What a Friday?
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Has been so much fun? I'm here tomorrow eight to eleven,
would handle on the law.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Neil is here all of one stuff. It's gonna be
fun on the fork report. Yeah, great fun.
Speaker 1 (23:32):

with the Morning Crew and the stories we are looking
at that you're no doubt going to be hearing and
(00:22):
staring at if you watch any of the platforms. Government
shutdown still going on. Well, it's been over a week
and it's started. It's going to start to really hurt
a lot of people starting next week. And peace broke
out in Gaza. Ceasefire is now in effect and it's
the president who pulled that one off for sure. Okay,
(00:47):
now it's time for Foody Friday with Neil. Neil Sevadra,
who is like that guy. He seems nice, He is nice,
sort of the host of the Fork Report tomorrow from
two to five pm and you can reach him into
social address a Fork reporter and I love doing this.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
So what do we start with?
Speaker 1 (01:05):
What is the most important item we could ever do
in food and that's Costco.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Did I go to Costco yesterday?
Speaker 1 (01:11):
I did go to Costco yesterday and there I noticed
that the food court where quite often I eat lunch
and food both coming and going. I'm going into Costco
and I'll grab a piece of pizza.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Okay, you grab a slice of pizza. Yeah. You go in, Yeah,
you have all the samples.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Then all your way out, you grab a hot dog Annesota.
That's actually correct. Wow. And I spend five bucks or
whatever and you look great. Quite honest for you. I
don't understand it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
So anyway, Costco, and this doesn't happen very often, but
I go into the food court and they have new stuff.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Yeah, they do on occasion.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
They sometimes it goes over like a turt and a
punch bowl, like when they got rid of the Tcheudeau.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Oh I know it had those chocolate cookies. Give me
a break.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
Yeah, the chocolate chip cookies that are twenty five hundred calories.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah, and they're horrible. I think I haven't had well,
they're not that good. The churros were phenomenal.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
People love and churros are I mean, they don't cost much.
I would imagine the chocolate chip cookie is actually more
expensive to make, but a lot of people still smarting
about that. But Costco Fruit Court added a caramel brownie
Sunday for only.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Two ninety nine and.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
It's people are loving it now. Some say that it
mirrors the Sam's Club. They had a brownie, they have
their own Brownie Sunday, but they go back and forth.
We don't have as many Sam's Clubs out here. I'm
trying to think where the nearest one is. You've never
had a You've never dipped your toe in another sam Club.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
I've never been in a Sam's Club really, right, Okay,
And they have the not exactly new, it's been around
for a little while, but that turkey and Provoloni sandwich,
which is oh that massive sandwich to Costco enormous.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
And pizza is always there. Pizza. It's a little greasy,
but it's so what you do. The crust is not
real crispy.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
I like their dewey Costo which and you have to
take the napkins and blot off.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Yeah, probably, but it's very very good.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
And their hot dog dollar fifty will never go away.
A dollar fifty and the drink for a buck fifty.
Well here's two things.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
So now Costco has this particular new item which is
the Sunday, the Brownie Sunday.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
But do you remember that really.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Good Costco chocolate cake with the shavings of chocolate on top,
and it was fudgy and delicious throughout. That went away
sometime ago, and now there's a chocolate fudge cake that
they brought back. The only difference that I can see
at this point is they don't have those chocolate shavings
(03:58):
on top. Otherwise it looks like the exact same cake.
And that is back at Costco now at the food court. No,
this is inside the bakery, okay.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
And is it a bout cake.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
No, it's a it's a layer cake, ground layer cake,
which is you know my favorite.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
I love a good layer I'll tell you the thing.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
The one thing at Costco that they're actually poor at
their bagels. Their bread is spectacular, Yeah, they got great bread.
I don't like their bagels.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Bagels are weird though they're not very particular about bagels I.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Am you need. First of all, I don't think they're
real jew bagels at all, which you say are toothy
and chewy. Yeah, just you have the perfect chew and
the crust.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Which is they've been boiled so they have the tight
skin on the outside.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
That's a lot of us. I don't need to know that.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Okay, let's take a okay, back we go and Trader Jokes.
I happen to like Trader Joe's my two favorite places
to shop, or of course Costco.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
And Trader Hey.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Before we get to trade of Joe's, I wanted to
give you a heads up on something recently. We were
talking about corn dogs on the air and Amy and
I were singing the praises of the Little Red Wagon
in Disneyland on Main Street because they're phenomenal. But you
said something, you said you can't you were having problems
finding corn corn dogs that were beef at the store
(05:23):
at the supermarket. Yeah, so guess what's happening. Wiener Snitzel
is putting out frozen corn dogs now.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
And I love their corn dogs.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
So they are putting I know because you and I
used to go just right over here, yes, right down
the street from the station.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
We'd go eat them here.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
So they are putting their standard one, and then they're
putting one with like queso or cheese, spicy cheese or
something like that in it.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
But my understanding is they're beef, all beef, So.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeah, that's a real corn dog. I've never understood chicken
corn dogs.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
You go to the fair.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Those are real corn dogs, none of this chicken crap
and wiener Stitze.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Real corn dogs. And you want to taste the horns
and the dives.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
And I'm assuming Disneyland, those are real beef hot dogs.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
It is so magical. I know chefs that are like, yeah,
that's the best corn dog I've ever had in my
entire life. It really is quite spectacular. But now on
to Trader Joe's. They've got some new products under five bucks,
and these really caught my eye. I love this. Now
I know you're not a balsamic vinegar guy, if I remember, no,
(06:36):
I am are you?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Okay? I thought you were. I thought you're like.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
And but no, good good balsamic vinegar from Italy for example,
from modern now, but we're talking about twenty five year
old balsamic vinegar.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I mean you know this stuff is Yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
You like them like you like your new wives. The
peach flavored glades and viscous bro that sounds like the
worst wrap team in the world. Ladies and gentlemen coming
to the stage. Thick and biscuits, yo yo yo, okay,
(07:15):
peach flavored glaze to ninety nine. But this is a
a balsamic vinegar peach glaze that you can get there
at Trader Joe's.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
That looks delicious.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Also, this one what a magic combination goat cheese and
caramelized onion wrapped like Barrioli.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Ohne nine baby. So how magical is that? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (07:43):
So that's a that's a great appetizer there, that one
they have these protein pancakes. Protein pancakes are starting to
become popular right now, and those are just you know,
higher protein pancakes and in this case they're made with
cottage cheese, egg whites, oak flower.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
These kinds of sound was disgusting real quickly.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Uh, Trader joe as you go in, either you get
it by mail or you're going to the store. The
Fearless Flyer their monthly sort of news magazine. You read
it and it's the best written stuff. I don't know
who writes the call. It's hilarious and it's wonderful.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
You want to buy everything that's in the Flyer. There
was a there was.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
A company that I think recently closed its doors, but
it's been him around for a long time online called
Sci Scientific. Something that you could buy like use science
equipment and things like that.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
And they wrote like that.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
They wrote it's with tongue in cheek, but also described
something so wonderfully that you want to, you know, you
want to.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Buy it, and say things like our buyer was in
Italy and ran across, uh this vineyard and said, you've
got to buy every last one to bring him to
the States.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
And yeah, so so Trader Joe's has a lot of
really there for their false stuff. Those were some things
that stood out. In addition to they have the simmit
Turkish sesame bread, which sounds delicious as well. They just
have a good variety of things.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Yeah, they just they're so inexpensive relative to other stores.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
They're so reasonably priced. Hey, we just had.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Had time for one more and that is a new
limited time cereal which we used to never see hitting
the shells. My favorite one is smoked macrol oat flakes.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
It's delicious, especially with a raw oat milk to really
add to it. That's gross, this one. I love cereal.
I don't know what it is, but it's a comfort
food to me. I love being able to pour a
bowl of cereal. I even like hot cereal. Your cream
of weeds, that type thing, your grits, those types of things.
(09:52):
But there's a limited time cereal that just dropped and
it sounds delicious. It's from the folks that bring you
the honey Bunches of Oats, but this one is sugar
cookie flavored.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Oh for the holidays, right, I love a.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
Good sugar cookie, So Honey Bunches of Oats they're introducing
this first of its kind holiday flavors, sugar sugar cookie.
And it's all their crispy flakes and other crunchy oak
clusters and all of that, but instead of you know,
the honey, it's going to be that buttery goodness that
we love around Christmas.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Yeah, you know, we've been talking a lot about additional flavors.
You know. The other day, I was in the supermarket
and I happen to go down the cookie aisle and I'm.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Looking at what's happened to stumbled. I bought a couple
of cookies.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
But I go down the cookie aisle and I'm looking
at Oreos. They had eighteen different kinds of Oreo cookies.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
Absolutely, sorry, I just took some letter. Absolutely they're known
for it, and some of them are kind of they're
more novelty, and they come and go and then some
of them are are so beloved that they stick around.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Now, I mean the traditional oreo, but the super thin oreo,
the extra thick cream oreo.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
Yeah, and then you have stuff like you also have
like birthday cake oreo, which is pretty tasty, smoked mackerel.
In the smoke macrel. I know you're not getting enough
mercury in your life.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
What's the problem.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Yeah, Well, if you can take your temperature with fish
sticks these days, you know.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Okay, we are done.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Okay, it's ask Handle anything, and the rules are the same.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
You record these questions.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
I have no idea what they are, and Neil chooses
them and the whole point is to embarrass me. I
hear them for the first time. And this is how
we do it on Friday Kono.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
First question, This is Cally from Riverside, California. My question
for Bill Handle is are you an atheist? Do you
believe in God? That's my question.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Boy, that's a good question. She was asking, you know,
yeah she was, and she was whispering, yeah she was.
You know, am I an atheist?
Speaker 1 (12:07):
I don't know if I call myself an area I
am agnostic guy, because it's hard to say there is
no God, because you don't know.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
If I were you, I wouldn't believe in God. E
free time I look myself in the mirror, I.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Go, I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
If it's hard. It's all a leap of faith anyway
to a certain point. Yeah, so I don't know. So
I would consider myself an agnostic. So that's fair. Also,
people have an interesting time because I'm also Jewish. But
how can you be a Jew and be an agnostic? Easy,
because it's too It's a cultural thing as well as
a religious thing.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
There's no Christian culture. There's no Christian.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
There is because my wife, who's an agnostic as well,
she is a She's a social Christian, meaning she celebrates
Easter and Christmas and those types of things. Okay, so
I mean, but yeah, it is different in the Jewish beliefs.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
It is all right.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
But yes, I'm an agnostic, not an atheist. Okay, moving on, Chris.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
See, whatever happened to the necrophilia victimless crime that you
used to do around Halloween?
Speaker 2 (13:19):
I don't remember hearing it. YEA a very long time.
Good question.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
And by the way, every year around Halloween I would
do a segment necrophilia the victimless crime. Why, because you're
stopping a dead body. Disgusting as it is, So it's
not a human being, it is not. It's for example,
like stooping a car or putting your privates into a
(13:46):
k not hole in a tree. I used to do that,
but very concerned about splinters. So are you giving splinters
to the tree. Yes, so that's very funny. So what
ended up happening? And it was the victimless crime because
there's no victim there when you think about it in
terms of the recipient of the sex.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
I'll tell you why. I no longer do it. They
made it a crime. It's no longer and he's not
a crime. No, no, is it desecration or no?
Speaker 1 (14:16):
No, no, nope, nope, you could you could stoop a
dead body.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
I mean, listen, I've been married for it's now a crime.
Thank you for it was somebody all right? By next question?
Speaker 5 (14:35):
Oh, good morning, Oh now I really want to have
a fluffer nutter this morning, because you need fluff, fluf
fluff to make a fluffer nutter, marshmallow fluff and lats
of peanut butter. Hey, guys, have a wonderful wonderful, great,
great day.
Speaker 4 (14:53):
That's because Cono talked about the other day, No, and
I thought she was so wonderful.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
Crazy.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Let me ask, is that a crazy person that works
in porno films? Fluffer dutter? I don't know the answer
to that.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Fluffer No, Okay, one more question before the break.
Speaker 6 (15:15):
So I was wanting to know from Bill Handle, when
you were a young boy coming to America, you went
to school with an industrial lunchbox. Everyone else had theme
or characters type lunchboxes. So, thinking back when you were
a young boy, which was the character of theme lunchbox
you wanted the most and wish your parents would have
bought for you.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Yeah, that's the story I used to share, coming to
the United States and not speaking English and coming from
a different culture. My dad was a Union electrician, and
you would take those industrial lunchboxes, you know with the
thermis in the top and that had the arc in it,
you know, And he would give me those and I
was hugely, hugely.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Embarrassed by it because I was just out of it.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
And so I would take that to school and it
was just Oh, the kids made so much fun.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
They thought it was a casket. No, it was Yeah,
but it was rough.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
It was rough, and so I used to share that
lunch box story.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
And that's a good question. What and all the other
kids had the character lunchbox? What Batman? When would wait?
What year was that? Nineteen fifty seven?
Speaker 7 (16:20):
Maybe?
Speaker 4 (16:21):
Okay, would it have been Howdy duty or something?
Speaker 2 (16:26):
How do you duty?
Speaker 1 (16:26):
It was a Davy Crockett was a big one. And
so the answer is which character. I am still in
therapy over that issue. I just wanted to let you
know that it's been a lot of years. My therapist
is still looking into that.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
See you striking me as the type of person who
loved what was in the lunch box more than the
box that came in.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Knowing you know, you know, that's the other thing. And
I even shared this in years, But that's the other thing.
Is my dad, you know, this was he didn't know
from white bread. He lived in Europe, so it was
rye bread. And all the kids had, you know, sandwiches,
and they cut the crust off and yeah, they were wrapped, yeah,
(17:06):
and they would share. And what my dad used to
do is give me, give me a baloney sandwich on
two pieces of ride bread, one slice of baloney.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
And during the end.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
And we're talking hot, hot days here in southern California.
And I'll never forget, you know, opening the lunch box
watching these other kids eat those sandwiches, and I would
look at mine. I'd see, you know, the bread in
one corner and the other corner, and I would the
baloney had stuck to the side, and I would peel
it off and I'll put it between the bread.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
That's why I'm in therapy. They didn't wrap it. It
was just for nothing.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
My dad old school, they didn't have wax paper in Europe.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
They didn't know from wax paper. So your mom in
the fifties or your dad in the fifties was making
your lunch. Yeah, my dad always made my lunch. Yeah, okay, no,
Hi Bill.
Speaker 8 (18:01):
I was wondering what kind of ed meds you use,
whether you use viagras cialis or one of the combination
ones like Hymn's or ROW or something like that. You
seem like a kind of guy that I would probably
try them on figure out which one was best. So
I just was curious which one you currently use?
Speaker 1 (18:16):
All of them try before you buy, Yeah, all of
them and the and the pump. I might add because
that's helpful too, and watching Porno while I'm trying to
do this.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
By My favorite porno by the way, is Barnyard Love.
That's the Barnyard Love too, Gidia. All right, moving on
a kono.
Speaker 7 (18:41):
Bill Thunderous Thursday. That way, you can complain about anything
you want as long as you want every week. I
know you do it every day anyways, but at least
it's dedicated to you.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
That's a great idea. Thunderous Thursday not bad. Okay, we're
gonna come to the point where we actually are going
to get a name for Thursday.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Uh what do we have?
Speaker 1 (19:06):
We of course have Taco Tuesday, we have Humpday Wednesday.
Do we have Monday? Do we have a name for Monday?
Speaker 2 (19:15):
I don't know. Isn't it like morose Monday or maybe
Monday Monday? Maybe?
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Well, but that that that's a that's actually a good idea. Okay,
moving on moronic Monday.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Hey, how about tantrum Thursday t A and t r
U m Thursday.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
Well with you, it should be tan Trump.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
And by the way, I know how to spell tantrum,
but thank you for that. But you're right, tan Trump Thursday.
That's actually a good idea.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Well you do it Monday through Friday.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Yeah, I do so we Yeah, I thunders Thursday right
now it sounds pretty good and moronic. Monday sounds very good, Amy,
so I will get there. And Friday we already have
foody Friday, which is you know something we do all right?
Moving on, if we have another call?
Speaker 9 (20:06):
Hi, Bill, this is a real West Virginian here. You
have made remarks about eating squirrel over here on the
East Coast. Have you ever tried squirrel? And do you
have a favorite squirrel recipe?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Ooh, first of all, not the East Coast. Very few
New Yorkers eat squirrel, so it's basically the South, you know,
like they talked the way this gentleman speaks.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
You know, have I ever eaten squirrel?
Speaker 1 (20:34):
I have not, But then I've never had a car
in my front yard that's on cinder blocks, either I have.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Hey, would you yeah?
Speaker 1 (20:44):
I think yeah, I think I would. Did you ever
have guinea pig in yes? Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, we
had guinea pig, which is pretty good.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
I'd have some weird it not poy put what is it?
What do they call it there? Guinea pig? No, they
don't call it Guinea pig. I don't remember, but I
remember they they know their name. All right, Moving on plenty,
we have another question. I listened via iHeartRadio.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Why are your commercials continually in Spanish language?
Speaker 9 (21:21):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (21:21):
You know, I don't know? Moving and money? You know
what was that listening?
Speaker 4 (21:27):
I'll tell you what it what it is mostly because
those are they buy them in bulk across, you know,
and then they buy you know what. It's the way
they sell them, and it just gets put on our feed.
It's not four kf I in particular, just gets put
(21:48):
into a feed.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Yeah, the whole world the waste. That's why you'll.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
Hear the same commercial twice online, but you won't hear
it on the It's not the same as what's on air.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Okay, one more I think and we'll finish it up.
Speaker 6 (22:01):
Hey, handle, you're supposed that best friend Neil thinks when
you die, you'll burn in hell because you don't believe
his version of the Great Daddy in the sky.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
How do you feel about this?
Speaker 1 (22:13):
I'm thrilled because frankly, all the interesting people in the
world are in hell. People go to heaven are just
boring as as hell. So yeah, I'm fine with hell
and Neil. Neil is a very interesting guy. He and
I have had lots of conversations about religion.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
And all of them end with you going to hell. Yeah,
because his version of the Daddy in the sky, Big
Daddy in the sky. All right, God, I'm happy to
debate any of this. I like the name Big Daddy
in the Sky. Is that good? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (22:48):
They're actually playing the Sahara stage any point.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
I love the when I watch football, when there's a touchdown,
you have the player point to the sky as if
thank you God or thank you Jesus. I had no
idea what do you do when God or Jesus likes
both sides?
Speaker 2 (23:06):
And I didn't know that God watched football either. Oh,
he's a big sports fan.
Speaker 4 (23:10):
We're glad that Ann producer An isn't God, because she'd
be like Dodg Jersey.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
All the time. Okay, we're done, guys. Okay, what a Friday?
What a Friday?
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Has been so much fun? I'm here tomorrow eight to eleven,
would handle on the law.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Neil is here all of one stuff. It's gonna be
fun on the fork report. Yeah, great fun.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
And today what Thompson fills in for John Colebilt and
he's probably gonna, I guess, fill him for the next
few days. In the meantime, on Monday, we start this
