Episode Transcript

(00:04):
Welcome aboard, Bus One. We're on our way to Wichita, KS,
and we've got some time to kill.Let's play some trivia, gamers.
Introduce yourselves. What's up, everyone?
It's Aiden. Hey, it's Cooper.
And I'm Logan. Hit your emote, Logan.

(00:30):
Well guys, we've been driving a while so I'm getting kind of
hungry. What do you say we stop for some
fast food? Which Wichita are we going to?
Wichita. Wichita.
Which? Which one?
Wichita. Wichita.
Wichita. Kansas OK, let me go through

(00:50):
these rules really fast. Oh, I get it.
It's fast food. We will have 3 rounds of trivia,
each containing 5 delicious questions.
Oh, the topic's fast food chains, by the way.
Yeah. Oh, alright.
I thought it was what you're talking.
Questions Questions in round oneare worth 1 nug, Round 2 is

(01:11):
worth 2 nuggies, and round 3 is worth 3 Nuggets.
It's a nug different from a nugget.
That's. A nugget they all.
They are different, but they have a one to one exchange
ratio. First one could buzz.
In an answer correctly gets the nugs, we will have a challenge
question answering the game. I will lie and provide an answer

(01:31):
that is not right. You each get one chance to
challenge an answer to earn 3 nuggies, but challenge the wrong
one and you'll lose 3 nuggies. Damn.
However, I'm adding I'm I'm bringing it back.
The food coma is back. No way.
Yes. Challenge mid game it we didn't

(01:53):
get to take advantage of it so I'm bringing it back.
Challenge mid game to take advantage of a food coma.
If you're the first one to challenge a question mid game
and you are correct, you will put your opponents into a food
coma and they cannot answer the next two questions.
Amazing. Wow.
Most questions, most Nuggets. Wins.
That's crazy. It's crazy if it works.

(02:16):
I'm just gonna log off, watch the chance question be like the
last question. It has no effect.
No, I'm, I'm, I'm betting on thefood coma happening this.
I'm putting all my eggs in the food coma.
Basket. OK, most Nuggets wins and no
Googling fast. Food.
Eggs. Fast food.
Eggs. All of my eggs powders in one.

(02:38):
Basket. Hey, McDonald's has some of
those are. They I was picturing like hard
boiled. I don't have a hard boiled egg.
I almost spit my. Average spit take.
I just. I imagine they don't even put it
in a container, they just. Out the dragon.
The window and. It's.
Like. Gerling dirty, wet hard boiled

(02:59):
egg like slippery but like. Don't.
Drop it. They're still wearing their
greasy plastic gloves. Where they reached into the pot
of water. Here's your egg.
I'm the. I'm backed to egg.
Castle the Egg Burglar. I'm in China eggs.

(03:20):
Yeah, they they put me in chargeof your eggs.
The the egg. Let's.
Get into egg egg. I'd like my big egg big boil.
The big. I just imagine a big egg when
you say it. It's got an M branding on it,
OK. Oh, like, you know how many
minutes he's trying to use the wax crayon before you dye them?

(03:42):
So that's like, I knew that was gonna happen.
Question round one. Round one is all about
Hamboygas. It's burger time.
Finally, Speaking of burger. Time I've been waiting for this
baby. Yeah.
All right. Question one, the claim for the

(04:03):
first food. Let's try that again first.
Food. First food the claim.
The claim for first fast food restaurant can be argued for a
number of places, but what stilloperating chain was the first to
sell what is now a fast food staple, the hamburger.

(04:25):
Oh, open-ended. Open-ended.
Open-ended, this is. I think I've heard of this.
Still still operating chain Logan.
I White Castle. Are they old?
I don't that's. Correct.
Look, that is right. I feel like I've heard that fact
once a while. They were founded in 1921 in

(04:45):
Wichita. That's why we're going to
Wichita. Oh, that's.
Wichita So what is the White Castle?
OK. It's a fast food chain.
They sell hamburgers. Is the is the Wichita one like
really big? No parapet, that's just where it
started. When's the last time you guys
ate at White Castle? I never get in my life.

(05:06):
I don't know. That's what they don't have them
out here. Ask anybody that and that's what
anybody will say. Like who's keeping them in
business? There's one by word Democrat
come with. Tomorrow.
It must be like family based, like our family goes to White
Castle every weekend and. That's like, you better not show
your face at a Sonic America's right?
Pictures like 1% but. It's a strong 1%.

(05:31):
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
OK. So at the time White Castle
opened, hamburgers were seen as unhealthy and unsanitary.
McDonald's would make anybody somuch is Could you believe it?
So they marketed White Castle tobe very like clean.
That's why it's White Castle. And they had stainless steel on
the inside and everyone wore like spotless uniforms, so.
That's kind of what the White Castle means for purity

(05:52):
Spotless. I think.
And that's where White Castle comes from.
Kids also it all of them are company owned.
That's why it hasn't spread veryfar because there's no
franchises they're all owned by.That's very.
Interesting. Actually, guys, I go to White
Castle White places. Doesn't want you to know.
Like a lot of the like in and out is the same way a lot of the

(06:15):
regional places are. There's no franchises.
All right, with that out of the way, we can get on to Question
2, which is about Mickey D, the wielder of the Golden Arches,
the home of the Grimace Shake, the largest fast food chain in
the world, founded by brothers Richard and Maurice McDonald,

(06:36):
owes its name to the McDonald's surname, meaning son of Donald,
and traces its roots to the legendary Scottish McDonald
clan, sworn enemies of the Campbells who committed the
atrocious massacre of Glencoe during the Jacobite uprising in
1692. Wow, I've heard of that.
However these days they just putMick in front of words like cafe

(06:56):
to indicate it's McDonald's special version of a thing.
Which of the following multiple choice is not a real Mick
branded item that has been sold by McDonald's ever?
Yeah, and pastor or present? You're telling me the McDonald's
clan fought the Campbell's Soup clan?
Yep, and the Campbell's Soup clan massacred McDonald's clan.

(07:18):
It's a touchy subject in Glencoe.
Hey Mick Lobster, B Mick Spaghetti C Mick Plant D Mick
Beast or E Mick Arabia. Wait, so.
One of these is real. None of those spaghetti.
One one of them is fake. Mick Spaghetti, Mick Arabia.

(07:44):
Spaghetti, yes. So a Mick Lobster Lobster.
Then there's Mick Spaghetti, Mick Plant, Mick Beast and Mick
Arabia. We have, Cooper buzzed in.
I refuse to believe that Mick Lobster is real.
It's real. It's.
It'd be so. Easy to make a lobster.
Real Canada and and New England.Oh, that's why.
Lobster. At least it was at one point.

(08:05):
Lobster Logan. Well, I refuse to believe that
Mick Spaghetti is real. Therapist mix spaghetti is not
he can't. Hurt you, he can't hurt you.
Mix spaghetti. That is real and it's served in
the Philippines of all. Wow.

(08:26):
Oh, I I might eating. Bees.
I know the. You're down to the the one out
of three 'cause. I get my Mick plant.
What is that even? And Mick plant?
Yeah, that's the Mick. Which ones OK Alec would make
here's? Here's my thought process, Mick.
I feel like the Mick plant is like their take on a veggie
burger but they can't call it the Mick Veggie Burger.

(08:49):
It's like of course, make it possible.
Yeah, so they just called it theMick plant because it's made out
of plants. That's my thought process.
That's terrible. What the fuck is a Mick Arabia?
My answer is Beast because I think that Mister Beast has his
own burger chain. That's correct.
Aiden Mcbeast is not a thing. There is something called the

(09:12):
Mcfeast with an F. Well, yeah, what's that?
Is just a really big hamburger that they used to sell in like
the 90s or something. So what?
Is Mcplan. So the Mick plant Aiden got it
right. It's a plant based burger served
in the UK. That's.
Just a terrible. And the Mick Arabia is like a
chicken pita bread thing that they serve in like Arabia,

(09:34):
Eurasia area, yeah. Can we say that Arabia?
Like can we say Arabia? McDonald's cancelled.
Cancelled. Cancelled.
So one point to you, Aiden. Keep track of your own points.
By the way, thank you. You mean nug, point nug or nug
nug? I I point to you to give you a
nugget. You allow me permission?
Have a nugget round one has one kind of meat nugget Round 2 is a

(09:58):
different kind of meat nugget nugget round 3.
Oh. Sorry, they're Nugget.
They're Nuggets. Nuggets, yeah.
Yeah, it's like. Equivalent to 1 nugget or also 1
nugget. OK, let's go on to question 3,
Burger King. Berber being.
I hardly know her king. But let one point to Aiden.
Yes. Old Berber being.

(10:25):
That. Was pretty good too.
That was maybe the weakest. I hardly know her delivery I've
ever done. Question.
No, there's more. There's more.
That's just. That's just about his point.
Let's see if you do know her. King Who?
Was. Who was the King of England
before Queen Elizabeth the Second?
Oh fuck. No, wait, who was what?

(10:46):
Who was the King of England before Queen Elizabeth the
Second? Who was her king?
Oh. Aiden.
James. No.
Damn. King James.
Version. I don't care.
Name of the Bible. Name.
You'd probably be right. Charles.
No, that's the current one. Yeah, I know, Miss.

(11:10):
It's her son. Do you think she named her son
after her late husband? Actually, that's yeah, that's
people do. Yeah.
Especially monarchs. No, I want 6 super.
Louise No. Was he a King Henry?
He was not sorry. No points for this one.
Damn, George. George.
George. George do that after we, after

(11:34):
what we did to the last. George, how?
Many. Times do we have to beat Browns?
2 They wouldn't name that guy George after what we did last.
Did you gotta teach you this lesson, man?
Get them boys. It's a bunch of revolutionary,
like, yeah. What's the royal baby's name?
Who's the next king? Baby girl.

(11:56):
I think baby is marrying Levy Dunn and.
Then drunk the 1st. Rule over.
He's not He's. Not second.
It's it's the great Gronk. Until, until we have until.
We Gronk the Great is it so? It's His Highness, and then when

(12:17):
he becomes Gronk the First, it'sHis Majesty.
I think Gronk is a title of itself.
It's. Like a title.
Rob Gronk has Gronk over. All.
The Kingdom the Gronk overcrowd over country.
OK, no point to the void for King George the 6th.

(12:50):
Question 4. Question 4.
Wendy's. Wendy's nuts.
It's not even about, the joke goes.
Yeah, it is. I almost I.

(13:12):
Didn't actually plan for that, but that makes too much sense.
I should have played for that one point so long for that.
But anyway, you're. Supposed to say, do you like
Wendy's? No.
Wait, I don't get it. That's let me.
Ask the real question, the best of the mainstream burger places.
Wendy's is named for the founderDave Thomas daughter.

(13:35):
Likewise, the Wendy's 4 for fourmeal deal featuring a junior
cheeseburger, fries, Nuggets anda drink used to be named for the
price of the four items, but these days in Biden's America,
the four for four can exceed $4.00 in several parts of the
country. At which of these locations does
a Wendy's 4 for four still cost $4.00 multiple choice?

(14:00):
So only one of them it still costs $4.00.
The other ones it's more A Las Vegas B Boulder, Co C Seattle,
WA or D Tehachapi, CA Logan. I've never heard of Tehachapi so
I'm gonna say that one. I hope it's like a small town
somewhere. That is incorrect, Logan.

(14:21):
There's no Wendy's in Tehachapi.Logan Yes, there is.
Cooper I look, there is. When are you going?
And and guess what? The power for four costs $5
there. Oh God.
Just make it a 5 for five at that point, exactly like a salt
packet. It was all seemed like high
standard. Of Tell me there's a Wendy's
here, Why haven't I haven't? There's a Tehachapi.

(14:42):
Wendy's. I looked it up on wendys.com.
Whoa, from the source. Cooper, you're next.
I'll say Boulder, then I'm. Sorry, it also costs $5 in
Boulder. Boulder.
Yeah. Hardly nowhere, Aiden.
I did it. You missed.
It the first time, the 5050 Seattle and Las Vegas, Yep, that

(15:04):
totally feels like it's a Las Vegas thing and they're like,
you're gonna spend so much moneyon gambling and whatever that
the Wendy's cost isn't that big of a deal.
Like it's a promo thing, so I'm gonna say Vegas.
Vegas. Unfortunately, that's also
wrong. It costs $5.
You're saying it's 4 for four inSeattle?
It's still everything costs a ton.
Apparently I don't know I I think it has something to do

(15:26):
with like Sarah I. Don't challenge that.
I don't know why, that's just the prices.
I'm gonna challenge the coma. I'm gonna food coma.
All right, the sound play. This.
This does feel like one where Alec would be like, Oh yeah, I
stopped at the Wendy's when I was in California and it was $4.

(15:48):
This feels like Alec feels like he would go out to California.
I. Don't know if I've been to
Wendy's in California. I've been to the Wendy's in
Boulder, Co. I'll give you that one.
And that gave me the idea for this question.
I was like, it's $5 for a four foot.
Are you? Are you kidding me?
Exactly, I was. Like and then and then you
checked the date and you were like, I was like inviting isn't.
Wrong. Doesn't exist anymore either.

(16:10):
Yeah. And we're not to that one yet.
Cooper. Cooper, that is incorrect.
I I was not capping. For it Bam bro hasn't even been
food Coba fail. Am I in a food coma now?
You're. In a food depression.
I'm I am. Just give me your.
Give me your Nuggets. The Nuggets I have yet to

(16:34):
receive. All right, Nuggets, so no one
gets that one either another oneto the Seattle Seattle.
I oh, what I was saying is I think it's like I think it must
be like supply chain like Tehachapi's like kind of far
away from stuff. So Boulder, I don't know why
that's. Not partly, no.
Vegas is like in the middle of the desert.
Seattle is like right next to. I don't remember having.

(16:55):
Ports and stuff I don't. Know Vegas has really good in
import structure because there'snothing there.
How are you supposed to get all the Poco chips?
OK, question 5 In and Out has drawn a cult following in
western states thanks to its simple yet high quality menu.
However, some commonly ordered items don't appear on the menu.

(17:18):
Which of these items does not appear on the regular menu and
is only available on the secret menu?
I got this. I got this.
I've never been Alec. I'm going to take a shot.
In the dark? Well.
Oh, OK, before the multiple choice, what's your shot in the
dark? Animal fries or animal style
fries? That's not gonna.
Be that is inconvious, yeah. Too obvious I.

(17:39):
Thought I could get it that's. It's around one it's.
Around one question. I was gonna say I didn't include
that 'cause I think that's the one people might know.
About I'm glad you said that though, because I was trying to
think of what it would like. They call it a certain something
style and I was like, like freaky style.
Like what it's like on. Style Logan.
Goes to in and out for the rest of.

(18:00):
Freaky style. Can I get this freaky sauce all
over the place? Freak.
Freak. Can you freak all over this?
Freak. You guys do that right?
I'll have a small. Like freaky style.

(18:22):
And you can bounce on it A the double double B grilled cheese,
C Bacon Cheeseburger, or D Strawberry Shake Cooper.
Grilled cheese. That's what I was going to say.
That's correct. The grilled cheese is only
available on the secret menu. I was trying to trick you

(18:44):
because a bacon cheeseburger is not available at all.
They just they don't have bacon in it.
No bacon, No bacon. Supply chain something something
Supply chain something something.
Something something supply chain.
Other things on the secret menu,Animal style cheese fries 4 by 4
and a three by three. That's just like lots of patties
on your burger. The Flying Dutchman, which just

(19:06):
means a burger with only meat and cheese.
So like a terrible burger? Would you like the worst burger
you've ever? Protein style, which means you
wrap it in lettuce instead of a bun.
It's not. That's the same.
I don't. Think they get Yeah.
Exactly. I I think I don't know, I don't
know. And then freaky.
Style you can get. Wrap it freak.

(19:27):
You can get the in and out hat as well if you ask for one.
You can get a hat. Do they just?
Only if you ask. If you ask nicely, you get their
job. Drive your.
Job. Drive your job.
Drive your house. All right, that's the end of
round one. Let's get a nug chick.
Your job. Freaky stuff.

(19:48):
I have two nugs. I have -2 nugs.
Ohh. I have two nugs.
Ohh. Hey, it's tied.
If you absolutely. Value.
Absolute value tied. Let's go quick.
Alright, In Sync. While we're enjoying our
absolute values, let's hop on over to the audience.

(20:10):
Questions. Tricks.
Hello listeners, welcome to the post round one break.
Hope you're enjoying the fast food trivia so far.
If you. Are now is a great time to stop
and give us a follow and a five star rating if you haven't yet.
Unless you're driving, of course, then save that for

(20:32):
later. Hey Siri, remind me to give Bus
1 trivia a five star rating in 45 minutes.
OK. Anyways, with that out of the
way, let's review last week's audience question.
Popcorn, Alec. From last week's public domain
episode, we asked you when was the last year that Mickey

(20:54):
Mouse's copyright was extended. The answer is 1998, which is
close enough to what? Mr. NYLT.
Said so they will get a point. Congrats.
Mr. NYLT. Sorry not to change the subject,
but I am really craving a thick burger from Hardee's.
Or. Maybe you know it is Carls

(21:15):
Junior if you're in the western half of the US.
Fun fact, while they maintain the same branding, these two
chains actually have different menus.
Two states actually contain botha Hardee's and Carl's Junior.
Can you name one of them? Again, what is one of the two
states that have both a Hardee'sand a Carl's Junior?

(21:37):
Write your answer in the comments on Spotify, YouTube, or
on our latest Instagram post at Bus 1 Trivia 1.
Correct answer will receive a point and a shout out on the
show. Now let's get back to gobbling
up some yummy process fast food trivia.
All right, and we're back. It is time for Round 2, the

(22:01):
chicken sandwich. Wars, of course.
No, no, I'm sorry, I'm going to have to excuse myself.
I still have BT and Steve from the chicken sandwich.
Aiden, Aiden, if we don't learn about our past, we are doomed to
a doomed. We can repeat the chicken

(22:21):
sandwich wars. Honestly, I would do it.
I would go for. That.
Stimulated the economy. All right, question, What's the
economy bounced on it? The dark time in our history
known as the Chicken Sandwich Wars began in 2019 as a Twitter
feud between which 2 fast food chains.

(22:45):
No, I don't. Know Logan?
I think Kentucky fried chicken and Popeyes.
That is not fully correct. We'll go around, Aiden.
Chick-fil-A and Popeyes. Yeah, that's probably right.
That's correct, Aiden, Chick-fil-A and Popeyes.
Yeah, because KFC didn't start the chicken wars, but it ended.
But it was dragged into it. Whoa, that's what they say on

(23:07):
their commercials. It's like.
The chicken. Wars and then.
They like, dropped it looks great.
And allegedly, it's the sandwichthat ended the chicken sandwich
wars. Ever since Popeyes attacked the
Pearl Harbor KFC location, they got dragged into the chickens.

(23:28):
Yeah, so Popeyes started it. Technically they they tweeted
Popeyes released a new chicken sandwich and then it sold out in
like 2 weeks. And then Chick-fil-A like
tweeted something about like we invented the chicken sandwich
and then Popeyes tweeted back atthem like y'all good.
And then like Wendy's came in and they were like, you guys
competing for the second best chicken sandwich.

(23:51):
Which was great. Which is dumb.
That was kind of and then and that's when.
KFC came in and was like you fool and.
Then everybody did it like over like the chickeny chains came
out with chicken sandwiches or revamped their chicken
sandwiches over this. Missing.
Speaking of which, well, one point to Aiden for that, but
question 702 nugget nuggies. Nuggies.

(24:13):
Thank you. Nug Nug evolves into Nuggy, who
has. Evolves into nugget.
Yeah, Question 7. Which of the following brands
abstained from the chicken sandwich?
Worse A Taco Bell, B Steak and Shake C Panera Bread, D Panda

(24:33):
Express or E Airheads. That's crazy of airheads.
Absolutely. Crazy.
That's crazy. The chicken sandwich.
Did the airhead explode when yousaid that?

(24:57):
All right, that reset my brain. I was going to say.
I was going to say. It's all, it's all washed away,
everything before airheads. I'm not not going to.
I don't know. Somebody.
'S got to say airheads somebody.Are you going to be brave,
Logan? I have.
To say airheads, but I. I.

(25:21):
I think they did though. I mean might just make sense
now. Did you mean?
Just didn't get into Twitter beef or like didn't release a
chicken that's a. Great, they.
Didn't do any marketing thing oranything to do with the chicken
sandwich wars. OK.
The rest all definitely are participated in the Chicken
skash wars. But not necessarily releasing a

(25:41):
chicken sandwich. I mean.
I I I didn't. Like comb through the the menu
to see if there was a chicken sandwich on before the chicken
sandwich wars on all of these places.
They just did a whole brand thing.
And it doesn't need to be chicken sandwich for them to
have participated. Well, it's the chicken sandwich.
Chicken sandwich flavor there were.
There were some minor conflicts influenced by the bigger players

(26:03):
and the you. Know what was B?
That was. A Taco Bell, B Steak and Shake,
C Panera Bread, D Panda Express or E Airheads.
I'm gonna say steak. And chicken.
That's. Because they were out of
business for a lot of that time.Steak and Shake did not
participate. I just tried to throw.
How did airheads participate? Was it like those gummy Krabby

(26:24):
patties? I thought it was funny.
You're like a chicken sandwich flavored candy.
No, they made a they like partnered with another deli
place to make a chicken sandwichthat had airhead gummies as the
bone. And that's the part we all have
to pretend like that sounds disgusting.

(26:45):
I've never done that, Mom. I'm very.
Curious about the texture. If anything you know, at least
I'd want to know what the texture.
I just don't think airhead goes well with chicken.
That they did that always. Someone bought that and ate the
whole thing. We didn't start the chicken
sandwich. By making everyone so.

(27:07):
Sad Bun drops onto the screen. Finally.
It's over. So the other ones that
participated, Taco Bell had a chicken Taco, Panera Bread, I
don't know, they must have just had a chicken sandwich, chicken
something, and Panda Express hadan orange chicken sandwich.
Oh yeah, I feel like the air haschicken sandwich is the thing
where like one person goes too far and everyone turns against

(27:30):
them. It's like you've crossed the
line. It was definitely a gimmick
thing, like they didn't like sell it in stores, but.
Well, now. Or did they?
All right, well, another two nuggies to Logan.
Congrats. Thank you.
This is our. Control And now for the players
who ended the chicken sandwich tours.
Question 8. KFC was another notable player

(27:52):
in the CSW, led by famed military strategist Colonel
Harlan Sanders. In recent years, KFC ad
campaigns have featured several different actors portraying
Colonel Sanders. Which of the following actors
did not play Colonel Sanders in an ad?

(28:15):
And there's a few options here. Multiple choice A Colonel Harlan
Sanders as himself, B Norm MacDonald, C Jim Gaffigan, D Rob
Lowe, E Reba McIntyre or F Sean Astin.
One of these people did not play.

(28:37):
Oh my God. What everyone else did is
Colonel Sanders is dead. I, Colonel.
Sanders is dead now, I'll give you that.
I don't remember Sean Astin playing Colonel Sanders.
I feel like I would. Remember that too.
I'm sorry, that's incorrect. She did play.
Colonel Sanders by answer so well, I think Rob Lowe was hot.

(28:57):
Colonel Sanders. Reba was.
Colonel Sanders can be a woman now.
Colonel Sanders? What were the other ones?
The other ones are Jim Gaffigan,Norm MacDonald and Colonel
Sanders as himself. And this is ever.
Ever. Well, I don't know about, I
don't know about future, but past or present.
Past or present, Did they get, I'm going to say, the real

(29:19):
Colonel Sanders? That's correct, he died before
the invention. Of television.
There we go. Yeah.
I was like, they don't. Have like video of him at all?
Well they have video of him but he wasn't in like.
Carter put that video in an ad. That's what I was thinking.
Well, he died before TV. Yeah, but I was wondering if he
put the they put the video. Jackson store they put

(29:40):
humorously put his oh, you're saying anywhere.
I don't know about that, but. He actually did an ad for it.
Logan looks suss I. Do look suss Logan looks bad.
Did Jim Gaffigan play? Colonel, I believe you.
Jim Gaffigan? Yes, he did.
I don't remember Sean Astin playing.

(30:02):
I don't watch enough KFC that sounds.
Distraction. I don't.
Believe it, do some more KFC ads.
Little do our contestants know that this was the fake answer.
Looks like they were fooled thistime.
OK, question 9. Yummy.
When it was all said and done, the chicken sandwich wars.

(30:25):
Sorry, yeah. I was trying to give it a little
bit of room. Yeah.
When it was all said and done, the chicken sandwiches were said
to have accelerated in already rising popularity of chicken in
the United States. When was the last year U.S.
citizens ate more beef than chicken?

(30:45):
Closest wins. Last year.
Logan I think it was more recent.
I've seen a graph where they. They they're fighting.
Yeah. I think I'm gonna, I'm gonna say
like 2004. OK, we're gonna close.
This wins. So, Cooper, you're next.
I was definitely gonna say something longer ago I could
Bicentennial, 1976. Nineteen. 76 All right, and

(31:10):
Aiden? 2006. 2006.
So if it's 2005, Logan and I. Are so the correct answer is
1991, so I believe Logan gets that.
Nice. Yeah, I remember the.
Longer. Ago there was there was an
initiative to try to get people to eat more chicken and less red

(31:30):
meat, but it didn't do that and people ate the same amount of
red meat and just ate more chicken as well.
That's good. What we yeah, maybe I don't I
no, I actually, I think in my research I did see that like
beef at least. I don't know about red meat in
general, but beef has gone down.Hmm.
Chicken. Chicken is skyrocketing, baby.

(31:51):
Buy chicken. Buy chicken now short.
Chicken. Buy beef while it's little
short. Chicken.
Short beef. Diamond Chicken.
Short beef. Chicken to the moon.
Chicken short beef Chicken to the moon Short beef Ground beef
New No legs short beef. Chicken to the moon.

(32:19):
And it's Colonel Sanders. And it's Colonel Sanders has
really stonks meme but. Yeah, that's good by that.
That's so good. We're making that.
Go on by the time this episode. Comes out available now.
That's trivia.com Question 10. In July 2021, Popeyes finally

(32:51):
put an end to the meaningless violence with the release of
what new menu item? Multiple choice?
A truce Juice a new orange creamsoda flavor B the peace treaty
yourself apple pie dessert C themake lunch not war lunch combo

(33:13):
or D the we come in peace eight piece Nuggets Cooper.
I think I remember Make lunch, not war.
He he looked confident about C. That is incorrect.
I made that. Oh.
My gosh, I thought I remembered that.
He's in your head. I'm in your head, Logan.
You're next. Us the the 88 piece piece snugs

(33:35):
These piece snugs. That's correct.
The we come in piece piece Nuggets.
They didn't have an 8 piece nugget before.
They. It's a weird number.
Popeyes did not because they hadall bone in chicken like up
until they had the chicken sandwich.
So the the Nuggets. Is that true or also new?
It is true. I learned about this.
Capping on the fun fact section,I think I've.

(33:56):
Eaten boneless chicken Popeyes well before that.
I don't I that's what I read. For my chicken wars.
But that's what I read. Before the chicken war, before
the chicken war, when I was again that unchanged by the
chicken. Not this man ate boneless
chicken Popeyes before the chicken war.
OK, two Nuggets to Logan. Nobody.

(34:18):
'S wanting to try for the old food coma.
Nobody's doing a food nothing. Is I'm feeling sauce on this bus
about this but like. There's been some sucks me in a
food coma. I'm out of the game.
That's. Awesome.
Alright, let's do a nug check atthe end of Round 2.
I have 6 nugs Nuggets, damn. I still have a -2.

(34:40):
I have 8 Nugies. 08 Nugies. Been doing all right, swinging
and a lot of missing. I I do a magical waving of my
hands and now all of your nugiesare now Nuggets.
Wow. Because we're in round three
these. Are my negative ones.
I'm checking the diameters of each of the Nuggets to make sure
I didn't get shorted. Does your wave of your hands
anyone? Negative Nuggets.

(35:01):
There's a. Positive nugget.
There's 15 points up for grabs in round three.
Don't worry. Sorry Nuggets, 15 Nuggets.
You can get a 15 piece if you really work at it.
What round three across the fastfood averse?
Question 11. Is this another response there?

(35:27):
That bell is finally relevant because it's time for a Taco
Bell question. What note is played by the
iconic Taco Bell, AABBCCDD, EE, FF or GG Cooper?
I'm going to say F. Let's take everyone's guesses.

(35:51):
Aiden BB. Yeah, as in boy.
OK, as in boy. And Logan?
E. It is an E Logan shit.
Oh my God, it's. Hard coming in clutch.
I'm like, that's the first. String I.
Couldn't E string. That's why I wanted to play it
for you, so you could actually maybe figure it out.
I found that. Challenge it and challenge it.
It's an E editor put in Taco Bell's Canon in E.

(36:25):
That's great. OK, three Nuggets to Logan.
He's running away with this. I'm.
Running away, he's doing. Tricks on it he's doing.
Pretty slow. Walkie slide he's doing.
White Castle mode, he's. Going freaking.
Style. I'll have what he's having.
That's all I'll say. Question 12 I'm at the Pizza

(36:48):
Hut. I'm at that Taco Bell.
I'm at a combination Pizza Hut at Taco Bell.
This meme is possible thanks to multinational food corporation
Yum Brands. Brought to you by Yum.
This meme brought to you by Yum Brands Inc, also an owner of
KFC. This parent company is actually
a spin off of which even larger food and beverage.

(37:10):
I knew where you're going when you started this sucker.
PepsiCo, because they made a bunch of fast food chains so
they could sell more. Pepsi because they couldn't get
in other places. That's correct, Aiden.
You wait. He knew a lot about that.
I knew that. 1. Three Nuggets to you, but they
spawn it off Pepsi. Yeah, now they're not even top
two of the drinks. Not.

(37:32):
Even they're not even top 2 drinks.
They're not even. Talking like.
Sodas I don't think any soda is top 2 drinks and I'm.
Pasta too, if it's not Pepsi. Coke and Coffee and Doctor
Pepper is number 2 now. No.
Doctor Pepper? Yeah, Doctor Pepper, in terms of
like. I'm still keeping Pepsi sales.
Personally, it's you're the White Castle family customers.

(37:53):
Past we're a. Pepsi.
OK, a a Pepsi Cherry 0 hates to see me come.
A tall glass of water, it seemedlike.
The wrong order of adjectives Pepsi cherry 0 so 0 cherry Pepsi

(38:14):
cherry There used to be a 0 cherry peps I.
Prefer my Pepsi 0 cherry Fanta 0Peach cobbler and every time I
got it I said if there's 0 Peachcobbler what's in?
It what's in it? Nobody ever laughed at that
joke. I I beg to do listeners.

(38:35):
You never laughed at it. I never.
Laughed for Cooper's joke. Could you?
I was too busy making Cooper sounds like cobbler jokes.
When that happened, I was like, of course, Cooper's getting the
Cobblers. What do they call it?
Cobbler 'cause it cobbles you. What?
Cobbles up your inside. One of the one of the hardest
times I've laughed recently is Iwent into this restaurant, this

(38:58):
new restaurant that opened up inIndianapolis called Glizzies.
And don't ever guess what they sell.
And you just. Burst out glizzies.
Shout out glizzies. Glizzies to the moon.
Glizzies to the moon. They actually need our Does
everybody go to glizzies? No matter.
What? Logan, I'll go to Glizzy's with
you this middle. Time hot dog.
They're open late. Small Business this Small
Business Saturday, please go to.I'm.

(39:21):
Your name this small business. Saturday.
Get the one in like November. And we all.
Go There's a lot of time to planahead because.
It's our Mecca. OK, anyone will meet you at the
Glizzy's in Indianapolis on Small Business Saturday 20/20.
Five. That's crazy.

(39:42):
But I went there with Trevor, and Trevor walks in, he says
like straight up. He's like, yeah, can I get a?
Just like, yeah, I'll have everything in my life.

(40:04):
OK, but that makes sense. Is it listed as Glizzy on the
menu? There's there's like hot dogs,
there's so many, there's like 30different types of 30 hot dogs.
Just like, yeah, I'll have a glizzy, I'll have a glizzy.
Do you remember that weird corn dog restaurant?
We went to I do. With like cereal corn dogs.

(40:25):
Yeah. Gross.
Question of 1330. Pebbles.
Fellas, I'm blanking on the nameof this next fast food chain.
If I give you some facts about it, can you help me remember the
name? I'll try to give 3 Nuggets to
the first one to buzz in with the correct chain.
Here we go. This chain was founded in 1969
in Lexington, KY. This chain is popular in the

(40:49):
Midwest, but Texas is the state with the most locations.
It's loyalty rewards program is called Secret Society Rewards.
In 2013, a health policy watchdog group named their Big
Catch meal the worst restaurant meal in America.

(41:10):
Yes, damn, I talked. About it earlier too.
Cooper, it's got to be long John.
So we talked about. That's.
It. So.
Finally, I'm in the I'm in the black.
You. Foreshadowed it.
You guys might have might have been able to get it if I tried
to emphasize it's secret society.
Secret. Secret.

(41:31):
Secret. Also, the other ones I was going
to say is that their slogan is fish.
Yeah, and then their name for the Treasure Island fish.
Yeah, but yeah, their Big Catch meal had 33 grams of trans fat,
which is more than two weeks of the healthy dose, 19 grams of

(41:52):
saturated fat, 1300 calories and3700 milligrams of sodium.
Guys, I eat at Long John Silversonce every two weeks and I don't
eat anything else. I'm going on 2.
Weeks of John Silver's diet in 20 minutes.
It's great. In 20 minutes it only takes me
15 fish. Yeah, fish every.

(42:15):
Day I live. Five days.
I'm actually a deep cover agent for the secret society.
Yeah, I don't know who's actually going to Long John
Silver's, no offense. Long John Silver's.
Sorry, John sponsor Jonathan. I even went on their website and
was like, maybe they've got some, like, good stuff now.
No, it all looks gross. It all looks disgusting.
It's all like today. They do during the chicken wars.

(42:37):
Don't ask. They don't ask what they.
Did between 2019 that's the chicken war was actually a big
cover up by the secret society so that you.
Were a bystander, which makes them just as bad, of course.
Right. They did.
They did Sea chicken, also knownas tuna.
Chicken of the sea, I don't. Chicken of tuna.
But probably know you. That is, that's what they call

(43:00):
tuna. That's what they're saying
online these days. Question.
Hey, Jesse. Get a load of what I heard.
But up, up, up, up. I'm loving it.
No points. No points for that.
Come on, I'm. Conditioned I'm in.
Condition. I'm not asking for anything.
How many Nuggets? But how many Nuggets?

(43:29):
A little too freaky style on this one guys.
Cooper, I'm giving you a nugget as as reparations for having to
hear Logan say that to you. I didn't know how bad it would
sound after I said it, I thoughtit would.
Be pretty. In my defense, I didn't think

(43:51):
about what it would sound. I I assumed it.
Would be better. Anyways, I'm loving it.
Marketing slogans may be to blame for the chokehold fast
food chains have on our public consciousness, but slogans are
not forever. I will give you a list of

(44:12):
previously used fast food slogans and you must tell me
which chain the slogan was for so you can write this down.
There's a few and we'll award itto whoever gets the most right.
OK, prepared. The first one is think outside
the bun. Oh man, you.

(44:32):
Don't remember that one? Oh, you're you're cooked.
Wow, that brings me back. It does.
I'm thinking the next. One is where's the beef?
The next one is you deserve a break today.
Next is slicing up freshness. The next one is service with the

(44:56):
speed of sound and the last one is we treat you right.
Some of these I feel like I knowthem but I'm not sure.
Sorry, what was? Think outside.
The third one is you deserve a break today.
What? The hell is that one?
That's the one I'm stuck on. You deserve a break.

(45:18):
You. Deserve a break today.
I'm getting where's the beef mixed up in my mind?
When we have. The meats, Yeah, I know.
It but I don't, I don't think I see fast food commercials enough
to be able to place them. You deserve.
Well, these are all, no, these are all ones that are no longer
used. So yeah, I know.
But like where's the beef? I know and think outside the

(45:38):
bun. I know but like I can't place
what? Who's telling me I have a break
today? OK, everyone's ready, so I'll do
it this way. I'll say them and then you can
each tell me what you thought itwas for.
Yeah. I'm, I'm guessing everything
now. Yeah, I'm so confident going.
I know nothing. So what you guys write for Think
outside the bun? Taco Bell.
I did Arby's like they had sandwiches and they were maybe

(46:01):
expanding so they used that as. I said Taco Bell because they
don't have buns. You got to think outside the
bun. Yeah, that one is Taco Bell, so
that Cooper and Logan got that one.
Where's the beef? This is where.
It falls off the rails, I said. 03 different it is Wendy's I.
Think damn damn. Yeah.

(46:21):
Damn son, where'd you? Where's the?
Beef. Where's the beef?
Was the famous Wendy's campaign from like the 80s?
Where's the beef? It was famous.
It was on like Seinfeld. Where's the beef?
You deserve a break today. Would you think I'm?
Gonna say White Castle. Again.
Clue. One of these has three White
Castles. Jack.
In the box. I said steak and Shake.
OK, no one got that one. That was McDonald's old slogan.

(46:43):
Oh wow, that's dumb. McDonald's that's they they had
like multiple but what if you deserve a break?
Today was a break today. It was before there.
It was from like the 80s and 90sMcDonald's so no one got that
one slicing up freshness sub Arby's.
I said subway. It is Arby's.
Cooper. God What?

(47:04):
What are they slicing? It's not.
Freshness. They're meats.
They're fresh. Meats I this next one I think I
have unlock. Service with the speed of sound.
It's got to be Sonic. Got to be Sonic.
Yeah, it's got to be Sonic. You all three said that.
Yeah, that is correct. Good job.
This is big for. Which I had never heard that,
but I was like, that makes sense.
Yeah. And then last one, we treat you

(47:26):
right. Dairy Queen.
That one I had McDonald's rally.No, that's not right.
Aiden got that one. Wow, they didn't.
Get them all or get them all. I got 3, Cooper and Aiden you
each got 3 so. We have to battle it out.
Three Nuggets to each of you. Oh.
Oh, or we could do a tiebreaker.No, I want to battle it out.
No, I want to battle it out. For free.

(47:48):
I want to share. I want to share.
No, I can only win if if I startgaining ground.
I need to. I need a tiebreaker.
Alright, Cooper. Cooper is doing the.
But I want to beat Logan. Prisoner's dilemma or or
whatever and he's. Splitter Splitter steeled me.
So let me look. Steel.
You want to put all steel. But up, up, up.
You deserve better. Wait, what was that you deserve?

(48:10):
You deserve McDonald's. You deserve.
McDonald's, you deserve better. But The thing is, somebody would
do that. You deserve.
Better. You deserve a better fast.
Food you deserve. PP Leave your boyfriend for us.
Here. Here is the tiebreaker.

(48:32):
Ready. OK, ready.
Gather round the good stuff. What is that another?
Arby's Let me. Is that your answer, Cooper?
Wait, let me see. Gather round the I need to write
it down. Gather round the good stuff,
Popeyes. Hardee's or Carl's junior?

(48:56):
Neither one. Have you got it, Sam?
What was? It another one.
That one is Pizza Hut's old slugPizza Hut.
OK, which it which might have been hard because that's not a
typical fast food 1 you think of, but we did mention Pizza Hut
earlier, so. What is What is Hardy's, Carl's,
Junior's slogan? Umm, make it up.
And whoever's close. We got a hard on for these
burgers. Apparently it's currently feed.

(49:18):
You're happy, you're happy. I feel like I can come.
Happy. And you know what, Carl?
'S doing better. OK, it's too big to eat.
It's too big. What?
Is this? This is one that has been
mentioned earlier. Subway.
Oh, somebody, somebody answered this earlier in this question.

(49:40):
Oh, that's what it's too big to eat.
It's too big to eat big. To eat, that's their whole.
Slogan jack-in-the-box again. Everything.
White Castle. Aiden, you got it.
It's jack-in-the-box. jack-in-the-box, It's two
claims. That's too big.
Don't Jack in my. Burgers.
I don't know the box. I'm.

(50:01):
Not thumbs up being. It's too big.
Hell yeah. Possibly too big.
OK, jack-in-the-box. It's too big, it's too big to
eat, it's too big for the box. So.
So they're Jack in your own too big.
To eat. And now their current slogan is
Eat it anytime. It's eat it anyway, Period.

(50:21):
Anytime. Oh, you thought it was too big
before? Well, now you're just gonna.
Now eat it all the time. How do you eat?
All right, that's enough slogans.
I was afraid that was going to go on forever, so thank you for
guessing that. Right.
Thanks. You're welcome.
Anytime. Three Nuggets to you and we're
on to the last question. Question. 15.
I have saved dessert for last. Founded in 1940 in Joliet, IL,

(50:48):
Dairy Queen was a pioneer of soft serve ice cream.
These days, they are perhaps best known for their Blizzard
treats, which are served upside down to show how dummy thick
they are. While customers are free to mix
and match ingredients to their liking, some flavors are only
available for a limited time. Who can name a Blizzard flavor

(51:11):
that is currently only availablefor a limited time?
As of right now, there are four.There are four options and you
got to pull it out, but I will give it to somebody who if you
could get it close. Cooper presents an unused DQ
gift card. Oh.
Cooper's bias. My see my sister works at Dairy
Queen when she's not as proof. That this.
Is not, but she's not there right now so I have no clue.

(51:34):
I was like, oh I'm about to nameso many limited edition flavors
it's not even funny. Were you about to call your
sister? That's a phone.
A friend. No, I was just gonna.
Normally when she's working, I go visit her so I see them.
But. So first we have.
Gotta be some celebra again right now.
Jennifer Coolidge cool is. Strawberry cheesecake.

(51:54):
Strawberry cheesecake that is not one of them, but we'll see
if if anyone can get closer to one of them.
Is there still 8 some Valentine like box of chocolates type or
it's like little heart-shaped chocolates or something like
that? OK, I'll think about that.
OK, Cooper. I I'm thinking the same kind of
thing. So we got the Shamrock Shake

(52:15):
coming around. Dairy Queen's gotta have
something to fight that. The Patty Blizzard.
Boy, it's the Patty, Blizzard. Some meat Patty blended.
Up and I don't know, you can do better.
Rebuzz, Rebuzz the Patty. Yeah, I don't like any of those
that way. Do you want to keep going
around? Yeah, Rebuzz.
Sure. Oh.

(52:35):
Logan. You seem like really.
Eager to say like. Those.
Thin Mint Girl Scout cookie. Ooh, that's a good one.
Cook off. These are all great ideas for
Blizzards that I think they've. Done girls.
Ohh. Come on, I thought that was
gonna be it. Cooper, you have another option.
The Caitlin Clark Slam Dunk Blizzard.

(52:55):
That's another I. I don't know what flavour that
would be, but. It's actually a blame.
That's the Caitlin. Clark was in her mouth like.
Right. Caitlin Clark was kind of 2024
vibe, no? Do you think do?
You think Dairy Queen was on like?
She's not as Pat. Their finger on the.
Pulse, Aiden. Well I was also thinking
something Saint Patty's themed but they always have a mint 1 so

(53:18):
let's see what else is there. Is there like a Groundhog Day
Blizzard? Is there like a six round weeks
of winter Blizzard? It's.
Bacon bits. Groundhog.
None of these are are that close.
Cheesecake. Cheesecake and Valentine's Day
ones were kind of close. OK.

(53:39):
What if? What if you just got another one
from the past and made us guess cheesecake?
Peach. Cobbler.
That sounds good, but no blueberry.
Is it fruity? Is it Bernie?
Is that chocolate? Are we buzzing?
Truffle Aiden truffle, Blizzard Truffle.
Truffle. Like chocolate truffles?

(54:00):
No. Yeah, like Cooper.
Ham. What?
Oh, I thought Logan buzzed him. First, give us a cryptic hint.
Yeah, cryptic. Cryptic.
I did give you I said it was close to Valentine's Day and
cheesecake, and then you said Peach cobbler.
Cherry pink. I kind of wanted to Aiden
because salted caramel truffle is one of them.

(54:23):
One of the. Flavors.
Yeah, that's one of the flavors that's pretty good.
Right. I mean, I'll take it.
Yeah, he said the word truffle. He said truffle.
Yeah, I didn't mean red velvet cake.
Is the Valentine's E1. Because it's red.
Because it's red and velvet and velvet, if you know what I mean.
OK. Logan's read Romanticy.
I thought somebody was going to say Oreo at some point and you

(54:44):
would have got the. Other one I did say.
Oreo's always. No, you didn't.
I said Oreo in there before, Aiden said Truffle.
I did not hear you say Oreo. Play the clip.
Oreo. Cheesecake.
See, you never said it. Cool.

(55:09):
You have to record an ultra. What's the Oreo where?
He did say it, Oreo. Fudge brownie, which is dumb
because all those ingredients are always available, but I
think they're just like marketing like you could put.
These three together? Oh, so my sister actually makes
Oreo fudge brownies and I think she might just then make them
herself. Because you can make them.
All the time, yeah, So. And I swear, salted caramel

(55:30):
truffle is there like almost allthe time too, but it says it's
limited time. So there you go.
Three Nuggets to you, Aiden. Let's do a NUG check.
I have 15 nugs. 15 piece This iscrazy.
I have two, two I. Have 11 but do I actually have
14? Did I get I don't know in round
3? You're supposed to keep your own

(55:51):
score. I got.
Logan, you got. 2-3 I got 3 in rounds.
You got the Taco Bell one? Well, Aiden and Logan, neither
of you tried to do a food. Come on.
No, we. Didn't.
Everything was so so everything went down and I didn't.
Really write anything. Down to challenge.
Can you read them please? I think, yeah.
So they repeated all the questions.
So they could remember. What they were I'm gonna

(56:15):
challenge in and out. I think the grilled cheese might
be on the actual menu. I know it's just like a piece of
cheese on 2 burger buns. OK.
But that's what I'm gonna challenge.
Logan, what do you think? What was question 5?
The in and out one. Oh shit.
You can do it. Damn it that's I wrote down 5.
What was three? King George the 6th.

(56:40):
See that one? You could say.
Anything and I yeah of. Course I'll.
I mean screw it. I mean heck it.
I'll go King George second. There's no way that was her dad,
OK? No way they did three more
Georges after. You pull up to the drive through
window you're after He reaches out to give you your salted

(57:00):
caramel Blizzard. Does he flip it?
He flips it over and it all falls out.
Because you're both wrong. Wow, I'm so sad.
What? Was the challenge question was
Colonel Harland Sanders did appear as himself in a I'm
Colonel Harland Sanders and I'd like to tell you a little bit
about what you guys about it in the moment.
Yeah, didn't even try. Well, so I think with that,
