Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Didn't think this on my Bengo card when I got
to work today.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
But have you ever eaten frog or turtle? Yes?

Speaker 3 (00:10):
I have, Unfortunately the frog. I like the turtle.

Speaker 4 (00:13):
Ah, I like the turtle better than the frog.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
I like the turtle better than the frog.

Speaker 4 (00:18):
Now, the reason I'm asking is I saw this story
on the headlines today and I didn't know who this
person was, and I didn't know what she said. Taylor Townsend,
who is one of the best doubles US women's players.
She was playing the Billy Jean King Cup in Shan Juan,
China against Kazakhstan. Before the match, they had this little

(00:39):
local cuisine buffet where she noticed people in the back
that were cooking were banging bullfrogs over the head and
cutting out turtles to put into the bell. She put quote,
I might need to talk to hr about this. This
is disgusting. I can't believe we're eating bullfrogs and turtles.

(01:00):
Then the online bucklash happened and she was forced to
apologize for that, and I'm like, first of all, and
she was. Her apology was like, I respect everyone's culture
a cuisine.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
Oh do youa do ya? Whoever made you apologize? Because
of the Chinese cuisine.

Speaker 4 (01:19):
Has probably never hung out with my homeboys in Ohio, Michigan,
or Indiana because they eat bullfrog and turtle every day
of the week. Stupid frog legs in Indiana. Oh my gosh,
turtle soup happens all the time. And guess what I
gotta say about it. Disgusting. It's disgusting. I need to
call about alligator.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
You go down to Florida, you're eating turtle, gaitor, frog,
all kinds of nasty stuff. And I mean nasty in
a good way, nasty rob I grew up and where
I grew up in Southington, there was a lot of
ponds because there's a lot of like dairy farmland stuff
like us. There's a lot of ponds out there. And
what do you think we did as kids? We caught bullfrog, right,

(02:00):
And what do they do? They're in the muck. They're
in the muck. They they they're like they're like the trash,
Like I can't even They're like in all the crap,
is what I mean. And so I don't want to
eat that. It's like eating pigs feet soup.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
I don't want to.

Speaker 1 (02:15):
Have you ever seen where a pig's feet have been
I don't care how much you boil it. I don't
care how much you cook it. I don't want to
eat it. Now, you know about Chinese cuisine because I've
talked to a lot of people that travel to China.
They eat scorpions. Like if you go to a McDonald's.
Let's just take a McDonald's. They make food the the
people that's indigenous to their area. Right, and you've got

(02:38):
the right, that's right. They eat scorpion meat, sandwiches. They'll
eat all kinds of other stuff because that's that's what
they like.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
Fine, that's what they like. That's not what I like.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
So I have And I'm not being disrespectable when I
say I don't want them.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
I don't want to eat a bull frog. I don't.
I don't.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
It's disgusting to me. In my turtle I love turtles,
they're cute. I don't want to see you take it
out of its shell, snap it out of its shell,
and then throw it in a boiling pot of water.

Speaker 3 (03:10):
You do that with rabbit, deer or any and I
still eat them.

Speaker 4 (03:13):
And that's fine, that's right. I don't want to see
you prepare it, right, and whatever. And if you do
and you eat it, that's fine by you. But I
have the right, no matter what country I'm from, to
think that's disgusting.

Speaker 3 (03:23):
And if I say that on Twitter, so be it.
If I apologize for it's not sincere. I'll never forget.

Speaker 4 (03:29):
My boys in Vegas were taking me to Caesar's buffet.
It's an eighty five dollars buffet and they specialize in seafood.

Speaker 3 (03:37):
I've been eating swordfish, lobster.

Speaker 4 (03:38):
I got some crab legs and walking back to the table,
probably round number four or five for me.

Speaker 3 (03:43):
And what do my boys from the north have on
their plate?

Speaker 2 (03:47):
A mountain of.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
Old frog legs. Disgusting.

Speaker 4 (03:51):
I yell at them immediately. Boys, we're in Caesar's palace
here you have the run of whatever seafood. And y'all
hillbillies want frog legs.

Speaker 3 (04:02):
They're good them on top of the bad frog leg Debla.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
Can you wait till you go home to eat them?

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Disgusting? Just you don't like frog.

Speaker 4 (04:10):
No, I don't. I don't want progs. And like, if
I have to apologize for.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
That, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (04:16):
Man, Taylor Townsend, you're cool by me.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
Yeah, if you don't like frog legs.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
That's fine, and it's not like, it's not an international incident.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
Can we get over ourselves.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
It's there are friends, we're playing them in tennis. It's
it's it's it's all good.

Speaker 4 (04:32):
I'm more offended that you didn't think that we did
this in America, right.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
We do this in America every day. We do this
in America.

Speaker 1 (04:39):
Listen, some of my uh Dominican coaches would talk about
eating pigeons, pigeons where they're from because they're so poor.
Yeah and so, but if you saw them grab one,
like out of a minor league stadium and kill it
and eat it, you freak out. Disgusting, You freak out
because you've never seen that before. So I totally get

(05:00):
where this girl's coming from. I don't want to see
you bash the head of a turtle. I really don't.

Speaker 3 (05:05):
He's a friend of the frogs and the turtle.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
That's right, a friend. Oh my god, I can't believe
we went down that road.
