I took a bite out of one of them.

It's like a pudding filling, right, Yeah, not.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
My favorite texture. I'm not a custardy kind of.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
I like the whipped light like vanilla, the cream inside
the doughnuts that I don't like.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
The one that.
Speaker 4 (00:55):

Speaker 2 (01:05):
But I was staring at it going.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I just and my wife was like, oh, these are
like the best things ever so she really, But it's

Speaker 3 (01:21):
And I want one right now.
Speaker 2 (01:24):

Speaker 3 (01:26):
That sounds great.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
The Holiday pie with with mystery holiday filling.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
The flavor was really good. I'll say it. It did
taste like a birthday cake.
Speaker 5 (01:36):
See.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
I love that stuff.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
I look forward to it, like like looking forward to Thanksgiving,
looking forward to Christmas. And then, dude, I swear the
best thing that McDonald's one of the best things McDonald's
ever did.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
The shamrock shake.
Speaker 5 (01:49):
Oh that's when you know that, like things are really
looking up when they when they start whipping out those
shamrocks shakes, You're like, yeah, we're we're getting ready for spring.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Yeah, because that's a down thet Patty's Day.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
Yes, yes, the mulch appiers at the gas station and
the shamrock shakes go on, say oh spring is here,
there it is.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Ah, there it is for sure. Uh. And then what
the McRib is back, which they.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
Can't do The McRib can't do it. Yeah, it's it's
see that to me, I would prefer, dude. I had
the best barbecue. I went to this place in Huntsville,
Alabama called Dreamland, and you're like, that's a horrible name
for a barbecue place. Dream You went like like Uncle
Gushes or something, but like Dreamland. Yeah, Dreamland came out
(02:34):
and the appetizer. The appetizer was four slices of white
bread and two cups of their barbecue sauce.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
It was insane.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
It was the most ghetto white trash thing ever. And
I embraced it fully. And my problem with the McRib
is this, it looks like a little tiny.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Rack of rib Yeah, just don't. You don't have to
do that.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
You don't have to make it look like it's still
in its original I understand what you're doing. You're taking
pieces parts of pork and you're smashing them together. You
don't have to make it look like a rack of ribs, right,
Because I'm like, why are you trying.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
To trick me?
Speaker 5 (03:12):
Like chicken nuggets? I love a good chicken nugget. It
does not look like chicken, right. You don't have to
fool me. No, it have to be like in the
little chicken shapes. No, no, thank you, McRib. Change the shape.
Come back to me. We'll discuss.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Yeah, because I it's like how is it. It's in
a liquid form to get in some sort of of
a to get that shape, ryes, you have to pour
it in a mold.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Gelatin or something must be involved to get the shape
to stay together.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
So yeah, yeah, it's bizarre when you start going backwards
once you're staring at it, because maybe you took a
bite and you go open it up and you're staring
at it and you're like you're chewing, and you're like,
something seems weird.
Speaker 5 (03:54):
I wish I liked the McRib. I'm jealous of the people.
They get a lot of joy out of it. I
had a lot of joy out of the McRib. I
wish I could be a part of that, but sadly
I can't.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
And so mister went off to the mountains again, part
of the mccrib.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Mountains as frav and Frost News and Dave's doubles.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
I did uh back to the original comment on the
pot like the like go back to the original pie,
the deep fried thing with.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
The molten lava in the middle.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
Ass.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
A friend of mine sent me a thing and said,
those are the same pies that Rallies offers. According well,
according to him, it's or a reasonable fac simile there,
but he said that those those type are available at rallies.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
I'm in right, I've never heard of.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
This, but okay, So there is a restaurant on Long
Island that I would go at least a couple of
times a year. A buddy of mine turned me onto it,
and it's called All American Burger and All American Burger.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
They must do their fries in the tallow and they.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
Might All American burgers taste like McDonald's used to taste
in like nineteen seventy nine, nineteen eighty.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
It's crazy. It's like time travel.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
And you wonder what they did by the way to change.
Did they remember everybody wanted to else?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
And that's ridiculous because people are going to McDonald's that
are worried about health.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Yeah, right, So I don't understand.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Why it's waffle house.
Speaker 5 (05:37):
You know how bad a storm is going to be
by waffle house whether they're open or closed. Right, And
so I remember there was bad things on the horizon
politically when people in California were suing McDonald's to stop
doing the Happy Meal. They wanted McDonald's to discontinue the
Happy Meal because the pain and the suffering they were
(06:00):
going through by telling their kids they couldn't have a
happy meal. And they're like, oh, they're using toys to bribe,
And I'm just like, holy crap, are you such a
weak human being? You can't talk a five year old
out of McDonald's like you would.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Rather sue McDonald's and tell your kid, no, we got
problems America, and here we are right.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
It wouldn't feel good ordering the mcmelancholy meal anyway, you got,
I mean, you need the happy meal? Yes.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
And the toys are collectible, yes, that's why some of
us call it knobs.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Well, no, once a bt of babies, Oh my god. Yeah,
some of those fetch big money. Now, oh the original ones.
You know.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
I know a guy that has all the transformers.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
No, yeah, yes, you're like, stop pulling the curtain down.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
When I was a.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Little kid, well young, I was never little, right, but
I remember McDonald's had a commercial saying you can get
a hamburger, small fry, and small drink and still get
change back from your dollar. So last week the grandkids
all wanted McDonald's. I say, we haven't had fast food
a while. Doing went to sixty three dollars. Shut up,
sixty dollars to feed the family at McDonald's. Yeah, oh yeah,
(07:13):
it was expensive.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Man, that's not good. That's not good. Shocked wrong America.
Something needs fiction.
Speaker 5 (07:22):
Donald Trump, Here comes Donald Trump, hair comes Donald Trump.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
You know what he likes the big Max.
Speaker 5 (07:30):
Well that was a great picture with all those guys
in the plane.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
And then Mike Johnson is like behind him and people
are like, there's the guy trying to get right.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
He cool kids, RFK is holding a burger. It's like
help help.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
There's a great promotion though, the mcmagan meal on the
inauguration day, the mcmaga meal at McDonald's would be a
great thing. Do a Trump meal and special pricing on
a Trump meal?
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Do you think they would come in a box?
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Yeah? Man, that's really good.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
In an FBI investigation.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
So I was telling you I go recently, just not
to what it's been like a week and a half.
I had ended up having a colonoscopy, good for you,
and it was my second one. Okay, not the same day,
but yeah, five years apart. I didn't have them right right, right, right,
But doing that, I and I don't know how real.
(08:30):
I ask you if you'd done that, and you said yes,
how recent was it?
Speaker 5 (08:33):
Mine was two summers ago, and I went on the
advice of my doctor and on the my friend Sam Simon,
who was the one of the original guys on The Simpsons.
He he passed away from from a cancer that colonoscopy
would have detected, and so I kind of made him
(08:55):
a promise. He's like, you gotta when they tell you
to get that test, get that test. Don't don't be
like you know, because that's what he did. He blew
it off. And then all of a sudden he had
these weird flu like symptoms. And we were writing on
the same show, and the dude was just hilarious, just
the funniest, smartest guy ever that I ever I met
(09:15):
a lot of writers. But anyway, he had these like
flu like symptoms and they wouldn't go away, and I'm like, dude, nobody.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Has the flu this long. Go to your doctor. And
they found it.
Speaker 5 (09:25):
It had started, you know, in his in his colon
and just spread throughout his whole body.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
So it was very sad.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
So I got a colonoscopy two summers ago.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
I wanted to have some fun with it and so
imagine that.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
Yeah, so I got googly eyes right, and I was
gonna and put the Google eyes. The idea was to
put googlely eyes on each butchie so so.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Would they go to do it?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
You're already the eyeballs are going. But I didn't know how.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
I had never gone through this before, and I would
have done it wrong because I had. I had the Google,
I had one eye on each cheek, and you're on
your side for now. So when I go back, like
if I go back, you know, for another one, like
like you did, ladies and gentlemen, you got to put
the googly eyes on one cheek both you're going side.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
But now it really helps with the smile.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Oh my god, that's hilarious.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Usually they have you on your left side at least
that's where.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Yeah, I was on my left side.
Speaker 5 (10:33):
You're going right cheek, right cheek, googly eye, googly eye,
and maybe just like a little like have a nice day.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
No one ever, thanks those guys.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
It's so important that you know if you're supposed Because
they found polyps on my first one, a couple that
they removed, and in all seriousness, that's part of the
I mean, certainly there's some comedy kind of.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Woven into the whole procedure. It is, but it is
a really it's a very serious thing.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
And a lot of times if something like that is
happening where you're you know, beginning stages, and look, it's cliche,
but it's very true. To catch it early is paramount,
especially something like that, and typically you don't start having
any kind of symptoms until it's technically too late. Yeah,
so you gotta catch it early. And that's something. And
(11:23):
you know what, I'm here to tell you, if you
haven't had one in a while, it is not as
hard getting the stuff down as it used to be.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
The stuff that cleans you up.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
I had, yeah, whatever that stuff finds that was like,
that was like insane. That was like Harry Potter dark magic, right,
because I'm drinking that fluid that's like lemon flavored and
I'm chasing it with sprite, right, just like really, and
boy howdy, I had no idea the human body was
capable of this.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
I was like a fountain in Rome.
Speaker 5 (11:53):
But it was just like there was like little kids
throwing pennies at me.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
I probably should have gone.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Its still don't make those kinds of wishes when you're
throwing the yeah, no, no, yeah, that's the what they
do now though, is for me, it was like it
was a whole bottle of miralaxe, which is powder, and
you just put it in gatorade and you can't taste it.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
You could put that in coffee. You can put it in.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
Anything, I think anything. You can do coffee because it's
a colored beverage.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
No, that's actually considered a clear beverage. You can't put
cream in it if you drink it black, no sugar anything.
I was drinking it right up to right before I got.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
You're drinking mirror axe and coffee. You're wide awake and booping.
I'm wide awake, my heart's raising.
Speaker 5 (12:43):
Well, they probably wanted whether you were ready to be
put out when they gave you the old anesthesia.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Right, they had to do extra because if you have
coffee or something.
Speaker 5 (12:53):
Sorry about that, Sorry about your car, Sorry about the
parking lot, Sorry about the hallway,
