Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
I'm in the move for FOODFI AM six forty. Bill
Handle here on a Foody Friday, October seventeenth. Also ask
Anything Handle or ask Handle Anything Friday. Big Stories. We're
looking at John Bolton charged with criminally charged with handling
(00:30):
of classified information. And he is now number three in
terms of Trump critic to be indicted in less than
a month. And I think that's basically just to start,
but so be it. And also President Zelenski of Ukraine
is at the White House begging for Tomahawk missiles on
top of everything else. Okay, now it's Foody Friday with
(00:53):
Neil host of The Fork Report tomorrow afternoon two to five.
His address is at Fork Reporter. Let's start with Taco Bell.
Neil bringing back a favorite menu item. And if I'm
not mistaken, that's the Dell Taco Grande burrito.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Right, Isn't that everything at Taco Bell?
Speaker 1 (01:16):
It's like the Grande, this, the Supreme that.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
But they're bringing back a discontinued menu item that people love.
Now they've been doing a ton of you know, reintroducing
favorites to fans. This whole year, and there's one that
has been kind of hovering. So during the time where
you know, Mickey these is shifting to their boo buckets
(01:41):
and all this, and you've got Starbucks with peppermint Mocha
and Duncan's Halloween candy Bar latte and all these things.
Taco Bell is focusing on bringing back some of the
things that people really really loved, and in this case,
the Beefy Crunch burrito. So they discontinued this burrito back
in twenty twenty three or so, maybe even a little earlier,
(02:05):
and it went away, and then it was voted as
being one of the best things and people wanted it back.
So a couple months ago there was whisperings and some
folks on Reddit were sharing that the Beefy Crunch burrito
was coming back.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
But then nothing. It didn't.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
No one really hurt anything, but this fan favorite that
has rice flaming hot, free Do's, beef sour cream nacho cheese,
it was brought back.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
So let me ask you.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Yes, sorry, in that if it's a fan favorite and
it does well, why do they yank it from the
market other than to somehow do focus groups that say
it's gets people more excited, gets them back into Taco
Bell because I don't understand how a fast food outlet
(03:07):
that has something that's insanely popular all of a sudden
says it's off the menu.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
This may not be specific to this, but I it's
an excellent question, and I've seen this happen before.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
It could be a myriad of things.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
It could be extra time consuming to make and therefore
it loses profit. Certain ingredients inside it may go up
or become more expensive. Any of these things, or it's
just difficult to produce in a timely manner. Whatever it is,
or it's regional. Maybe some people love it in certain
(03:42):
areas don't and others. Whatever it is, these things come
back and forth, or they find like the McRib or
something that if they bring it back every now and again,
it does better. Maybe the ingredients are so expensive it's
hard to make a lot of money with it. It
could be so many different things.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Yeah, the McRib. I mean, I don't know anybody who
does not love the McRib. And technically we talked about
how you make McRib. Neil is now making mcribs with
his three D printer out of plastic and it actually
tastes better when Neil makes it than when they make it.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Yeah, on my laser cutter, I'm taking a part wood
fiber and no, they actually use real actual pork in that, but.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
That's ground up and they put I would guess the.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Actually watch a video of them making it and how
they process how they do it McDonald's because people often
wondered what.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
It was, they show how they that's it's it's my
favorite thing that comes out of McDonald's. It really does.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Not only the cable quarter pounder with cheese.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
All right, So this beffe crunch burrito is available on
menus now. It's a limited time. It's about five fifty
or so. But it's spicy, crunchy, cheesy and people love it.
But this too, will not be around forever.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
In terms of price at Taco Bell or even Dell Taco,
I've noticed that other fast food outlets, particularly Carls Junior,
which is insanely expensive, prices are rising dramatically because of inflation.
The one that keeps it keeps our prices reasonable in
and out Burger burger fries and a drink is ten bucks.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
No, They've they've worked really hard to keep their their
numbers at you know, that same that same level.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
They had to go up like everybody else. But it's
I think it's one of the best values out there.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
And Taco Bell and Del Taco are they still considered
good values as one more expensive and then the other.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Oh, I think they're fairly neck and neck, quite honestly,
and I think that you know, for your buck, you'll
probably get more food at a Taco Bell than anywhere else.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
To give you an idea of how old I am,
because I'm one hundred and fifty years old, I actually
remember now I wasn't very old. That was obviously very
young at that time. Not obviously, I was very young
at the time where you could go to Taco Bell
and they had their sales ten tacos for a dollar. Now,
(06:32):
that had to be a big loss leader. But or
maybe it was hold On. Maybe maybe it was one
taco for ten dollars. I'm trying to remember which one.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
It worked fin ten cent tacos.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
At one point they were well when McDonald's first came out,
how much was a burger eighteen cents?
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I did not exist yet, yeah, I didn't either, But
it's always fun looking at her and we continue on
and finish up Foody Friday on this day and story
about did your no pizza? Now? Did your know pizza?
I happen to? It's my favorite frozen pizza. Yeah, yeah,
I really like it. It's there are three kinds of
(07:19):
pizza that are my favorite for frozen pizzas Digorno. And
it's actually reasonably priced. It's not crazy. Pizza is at
the supermarket run all the way from about eighty nine
cents for the ones that are not such good quality
up to nine ten bucks twelve dollars sometimes. So the
journo is great. And of course we've talked about Domino's Pizza,
(07:42):
their pan pizza, which you and I both love. And
there's a ball I don't know if you've ever eaten
the ballpark pizza. Ballpark Pizza is here in Orange County.
It's literally the best pizza I've had in the United States,
traditional pizza house pizza.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
But let's talk about it.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Oh, it's amazing, So talk about the journo pizza and
what's going on this.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
This is something that's been going on for a couple
of years.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
As a matter of fact, when I filled in on
Thanksgiving for you as I do every year. Amy King
was doing wake Up Call and Nick Pegliacchini he brought
one of these. He made one of these, And what
(08:26):
it is is a specialty pizza that the Journal only
puts out limited and it's a thanks Giving pizza, which
is basically Thanksgiving dinner on a crust. So you've got
roasted turkey on there, You've got green beans, you've got
mashed potatoes, you have stuffing, you have everything on this
(08:48):
Thanksgiving pizza. You know, gravy, sweet potatoes, all of these things.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Sounds a little sounds a little strange, but is it good?
Speaker 1 (08:58):
It is? It actually is.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Now I've only had a creation of someone else's who
put these things together on them, but they did work
that The limited style that or the limited pizza that
they do for De Journal is really hard to get
and they always sell out very quickly. Oftentimes you have
(09:23):
to jump through some hoop to get one. But what
sounds like the total gimmick actually is is pretty nice combination.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Oh interesting, well, because think of it.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
If you're using gravy as the sauce and stuff, then
basically the crust becomes role.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Yeah that kind of Yeah, one of the things My
favorite Dijordale piece is self rising crust because I like
a reready pizza and these are Are there any new
pizzas coming out? Are they expanding the of piezas like
Oreo cookies. Now you can get in any flavor, right,
smoked meat flavor, I mean, it doesn't matter, double crust,
(10:08):
double filling. Are the frozen pizzas doing the same thing.
Are they expanding their little selections?
Speaker 3 (10:15):
They are getting better because now you can get thin crust,
you can get all kinds of different crusts.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
That's one thing. Two, we tend to eat.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Pretty basic pizzas. We like our pepperoni, we like our
cheese pizza, We like vegetables. Every now and again, i'll
see something where somebody is more creative. They have these
higher end pizzas now that are a little chefy in
the freezer department that you can get that might have
other things on top of them that would be non
traditional or a little more cheffy or fancy. And I've
(10:50):
had some of them and they're absolutely delicious. But I
also think this happens in restaurants as well. As I've
said this on the fork Port many times, and that
is that Whenever a trend ends up on a pizza,
the trend is over. So like Beria, for example, a
stewed meat, a Mexican stewed meat that's fantastic, delicious, the
(11:15):
minute it ends up on a pizza, that trend is over.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
You know, It's just one of those things.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
People will try making pizzas out of everything, but really
we tend to like fairly traditional pizzas.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Yeah, and you know, no, the new uh, the new.
The newest pizza is the stuffed crust pizza that has cheese.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Yeah, the crust crust has been around for a while.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
They they even do pull apart pizzas where or half
and a half?
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Yeah? Those yeah, those are pricey. The stuff crust wins
are a lot more money. They're two three bucks more
and I find those just more money. But anyway, so
much for pizzas. Always keep pizza in the freezer always.
Let's finish up with ice cream sandwiches.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Oh okay, so these were These ice cream sandwiches are
crazy because they came out and people loved them. They
were at Costco and they couldn't keep them in stock.
So now Target has them and people are going nuts.
They're the Nightingale ice Cream Sandwiches just an amazing dessert.
(12:22):
And they are handcrafted ice cream sandwiches. They're available in
five flavors and people dig them. They're just they wherever
they go. They're like kind of a little bigger than
bite size, but they're they're just really good. It's like
(12:44):
higher end ice cream, you know, a cookie sandwich. The
it's not just like the chocolate cookie they have like
sugar cookie.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
They have like a chocolate chip.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
They have a chocolate Why aren't they Why are they
at Costco anymore? Because they couldn't keep the volume the
Costco wanted.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
Costco changes its things from time to time and they
would they couldn't keep them in stock when they had them.
I don't know if they're seasonal for Costco or what,
but man, they were flying off the shelves and they're Nightingale, Yes, Nightingale.
They Their website, by the way, is Nightingale ice Cream
(13:25):
dot Com.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
All right, you can find the nearest stores. But man,
very very good.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Do you have pizza in your freezer? Yeah, we usually
have pizza. You know what's funny are freezer has a
special place for frozen pizzas, like the special part of
the drawer if they stand them up so they don't
take up room or sit at the bottom.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
That's so let me ask you in terms of the
frozen pizza. These are store bought pizzas. I'm assuming that
you're not making your own and then freezing.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
But I used to.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
I used to make my own, and then you put
them on a cookie sheet and you freeze them, you know,
and then you could throw them on and cook yourself.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
I used to do that quite a bit.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
What brand is the pizza in your freezer right now?
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Oh, deserdo.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
And then I can't remember the name of the other one,
but there's a chefy one that comes in kind of
a white and yellow box.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
I think, not the that I'll get on occasion. They
have thin crust and stuff.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Yeah, that's, by the way, that's a very famous pieza,
the yellow and white box pizza.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
That's all I could see in my head.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Right people are going to go, you mean the California
Pizza Kitchen, which is also a white box with yellow
on it.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
But no, it's not that one.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Say bye, handle here Friday morning. Ask handle anything where
you record questions and I answer them for the sole
purpose of humiliating and embarrassing me. And we do that
every week at eight thirty. Neil chooses the questions that
you record and and he is well, you know Neil
(15:03):
and the way he thinks. Okay, uh, let's do it.
Ask handle anything? First question?
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Kno, Hi Bill?
Speaker 5 (15:10):
I was wondering, since we learned on Coast to Coast
last night that artificial sweeteners make you dimmer quicker, are
you going to change to a sugar free coke or
just coke?
Speaker 2 (15:22):
This is gotabay or thanks Coast to Coast? Did I
hear that right?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Yeah? So you so you Coast to Coast?
Speaker 2 (15:32):
You know what I listened to Coast to Coast once
or twice. It's all about Martian anal probes. That's what
Coast to Coast is about. I was sitting there and
the Martians would be up in their space craft and
all of a sudden they drilled my real rear end
and man, it hurt like hell and I then was
brought down again. That's the show.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Well, they also talk about health issues apparently, Oh.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
I got, yeah, I get. Oh. The Venusians said that
it's study they just did on Venus. Okay, great, Coast
to coast. Okay, moving on, George Northwich.
Speaker 5 (16:08):
Bill, I'm curious that while you were on your cruise,
did you promote or even talk about Zetlment's mouth mints.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Yeah? I did. Actually I was. You know, people were
asking me about it because I was popping them in
my mouth and people said yeah and yeah. Okay, that's
a quick answer. How about yes, I did all right.
By the way, thank you to Zelman's for picking this
guy and writing him a small check. They asked that question. Okay,
(16:39):
moving on.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
Bill, You've made references about how you used to do
a lot of cocaine back in your younger days. I'm curious,
can you tell us about the last time you did cocaine?
Did you have a good time? Was it high quality stuff?
Did you know it was going to be your last time?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Yes? Yes and no no, Yes, yes and yes, high
quality stuff? Absolutely. What was the first question? When was
the last time I did it? In nineteen eighty three
when I went into drug rehab. And by the time
I went into drug rehab, yeah, I pretty well realized
that was my last time. I was pretty desperate to
go in there. And yes, it was pretty good quality.
(17:17):
I became in a Fisonado.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
What was the problem with you? Was it the cost
or yes? The effects? Why?
Speaker 2 (17:26):
No, it wasn't well the effects. I mean you get
more and more addicted, and I ended up you need
more to feel good. And so I was spending all
of my money on cocaine. I was in my office.
I lived in my office. I had a shower in
my office because prior to me going in, there was
a and this is real, there was a porno company
(17:48):
that had that office and they built this huge open
shower and when I moved in, they had left. You
could actually the two by fours on the floor for
the camera dolly that they could pull back the camera
were there, and it was red flocked everything. It looked
like an Iranian whorehouse. And it was, uh that was
(18:09):
my eye lived there because I spent all my money
on cocaine and I and I was making a good
living as a lawyer. I mean from day one, I
was making a healthy living and it all went to
cocaine for four years.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
It sounds like better call Saul. That's uh, that's that's rough.
Speaker 2 (18:26):

Speaker 9 (23:24):

anybody ever listen to these messages? No? No, absolutely, not
you record them and we don't pay attention. By the way,
(23:45):
have you done an IQ test lately? Is it lower
than par golf? Probably? Hell? And all your therapy, have
you discovered why you're so hung up and hyper focused
on sex and bodily functions? Yes? Because one I have
(24:06):
too much of U and the other one I don't
have enough of and they're and they're interchangeable depending on
which day I'm having therapy. Okay, we continue.
Speaker 6 (24:25):
Hey, handle, So you say, when you're going to retire,
which for us won't be soon enough, you want to
go have a place in Italy for a while to
hang out.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
But why not back to your home country?
Speaker 2 (24:36):
Uh? Brazil? Because Brazil is half a toilet? Actually, Brazil
is a is a very tough place to live, a
lot of crime. It's just not the same.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
And Italy sort of. I've enjoyed Italy and Lindsey is
crazy about Italy, and so we planned on staying there,
probably a couple of months a year or depending, you know,
depending on how much money I have, because you know,
keeping two places is not inexpensive. What do I look like?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
John Jill's filthy rich?
Speaker 2 (25:08):
No, she will be, but she she has to kill
her parents.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
First, Well, do you have enough money to pay for that?
And then everybody wins.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
To pay for her parents? No? And I like them
too much. I like them more than I like her. Actually, Okay,
another one.
Speaker 10 (25:26):
Hey, Bill, I know your daughters have your credit card.
It's wondering what the largest single ticket item you've ever
been stuck with. All Right, congratulations on the shisas Shack.
You're a walking stereotype. But I'm happy for you, Budy.
In fact, I'm very much looking forward to the convertible
and two pay phase of Bill handle.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
All Right, love Takona, excellent, The shicks Shack, I like
that a lot. What's the biggest hit that they've ever had.
I think it was Barbara who bought a week's worth
of hotel rooms at a very expensive hotel, and probably
it was a hitter's four or five thousand dollars. That
was a that was a tough one. Why because she
(26:04):
was on vacation. I gave her the credit card and
I said here, and I trusted her. And you can
get hotel rooms for like one hundred dollars a night
when you go to Europe, so that would have been
a five six hundred dollars hit. I sent Barbara and
her husband out on the for their honeymoon. We double
(26:25):
the honeymoon with them coming to my wedding, and it
was it was a big hit. We had a conversation
about that. Yeah, it was not fun, but that was
That was the biggest hit.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
So one thousand dollars a night.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
Uh well, no, probably seven eight hundred dollars a night.
If you've been food, it was crazy. Oh no, no,
believe me. We she's paying for it. She's paying for it.
I think we're done, guys. That's it. We have more
calls that we're going to come in next week. This
is great fun. We're done with a week. Tomorrow morning

with the Fok Report. Two to five Monday, we come
back and do this all over again. Five to six
wake up call with Amy and Will and then Neil
and I jump in and Cono and Ann. Anyway, as
I coughed through that.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
Okay, anyway, Billy.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
Whatever they whatever they do, Billy, Yeah, that's gonna work, Billy. Yeah,
KF I am sixty. You've been listening to the Bill
Handle Show. Catch My Show Monday through Friday six am
to nine am, and anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio
app
You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
I'm in the move for FOODFI AM six forty. Bill
Handle here on a Foody Friday, October seventeenth. Also ask
Anything Handle or ask Handle Anything Friday. Big Stories. We're
looking at John Bolton charged with criminally charged with handling
(00:30):
of classified information. And he is now number three in
terms of Trump critic to be indicted in less than
a month. And I think that's basically just to start,
but so be it. And also President Zelenski of Ukraine
is at the White House begging for Tomahawk missiles on
top of everything else. Okay, now it's Foody Friday with
(00:53):
Neil host of The Fork Report tomorrow afternoon two to five.
His address is at Fork Reporter. Let's start with Taco Bell.
Neil bringing back a favorite menu item. And if I'm
not mistaken, that's the Dell Taco Grande burrito.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Right, Isn't that everything at Taco Bell?
Speaker 1 (01:16):
It's like the Grande, this, the Supreme that.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
But they're bringing back a discontinued menu item that people love.
Now they've been doing a ton of you know, reintroducing
favorites to fans. This whole year, and there's one that
has been kind of hovering. So during the time where
you know, Mickey these is shifting to their boo buckets
(01:41):
and all this, and you've got Starbucks with peppermint Mocha
and Duncan's Halloween candy Bar latte and all these things.
Taco Bell is focusing on bringing back some of the
things that people really really loved, and in this case,
the Beefy Crunch burrito. So they discontinued this burrito back
in twenty twenty three or so, maybe even a little earlier,
(02:05):
and it went away, and then it was voted as
being one of the best things and people wanted it back.
So a couple months ago there was whisperings and some
folks on Reddit were sharing that the Beefy Crunch burrito
was coming back.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
But then nothing. It didn't.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
No one really hurt anything, but this fan favorite that
has rice flaming hot, free Do's, beef sour cream nacho cheese,
it was brought back.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
So let me ask you.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Yes, sorry, in that if it's a fan favorite and
it does well, why do they yank it from the
market other than to somehow do focus groups that say
it's gets people more excited, gets them back into Taco
Bell because I don't understand how a fast food outlet
(03:07):
that has something that's insanely popular all of a sudden
says it's off the menu.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
This may not be specific to this, but I it's
an excellent question, and I've seen this happen before.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
It could be a myriad of things.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
It could be extra time consuming to make and therefore
it loses profit. Certain ingredients inside it may go up
or become more expensive. Any of these things, or it's
just difficult to produce in a timely manner. Whatever it is,
or it's regional. Maybe some people love it in certain
(03:42):
areas don't and others. Whatever it is, these things come
back and forth, or they find like the McRib or
something that if they bring it back every now and again,
it does better. Maybe the ingredients are so expensive it's
hard to make a lot of money with it. It
could be so many different things.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Yeah, the McRib. I mean, I don't know anybody who
does not love the McRib. And technically we talked about
how you make McRib. Neil is now making mcribs with
his three D printer out of plastic and it actually
tastes better when Neil makes it than when they make it.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Yeah, on my laser cutter, I'm taking a part wood
fiber and no, they actually use real actual pork in that, but.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
That's ground up and they put I would guess the.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Actually watch a video of them making it and how
they process how they do it McDonald's because people often
wondered what.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
It was, they show how they that's it's it's my
favorite thing that comes out of McDonald's. It really does.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Not only the cable quarter pounder with cheese.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
All right, So this beffe crunch burrito is available on
menus now. It's a limited time. It's about five fifty
or so. But it's spicy, crunchy, cheesy and people love it.
But this too, will not be around forever.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
In terms of price at Taco Bell or even Dell Taco,
I've noticed that other fast food outlets, particularly Carls Junior,
which is insanely expensive, prices are rising dramatically because of inflation.
The one that keeps it keeps our prices reasonable in
and out Burger burger fries and a drink is ten bucks.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
No, They've they've worked really hard to keep their their
numbers at you know, that same that same level.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
They had to go up like everybody else. But it's
I think it's one of the best values out there.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
And Taco Bell and Del Taco are they still considered
good values as one more expensive and then the other.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Oh, I think they're fairly neck and neck, quite honestly,
and I think that you know, for your buck, you'll
probably get more food at a Taco Bell than anywhere else.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
To give you an idea of how old I am,
because I'm one hundred and fifty years old, I actually
remember now I wasn't very old. That was obviously very
young at that time. Not obviously, I was very young
at the time where you could go to Taco Bell
and they had their sales ten tacos for a dollar. Now,
(06:32):
that had to be a big loss leader. But or
maybe it was hold On. Maybe maybe it was one
taco for ten dollars. I'm trying to remember which one.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
It worked fin ten cent tacos.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
At one point they were well when McDonald's first came out,
how much was a burger eighteen cents?
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I did not exist yet, yeah, I didn't either, But
it's always fun looking at her and we continue on
and finish up Foody Friday on this day and story
about did your no pizza? Now? Did your know pizza?
I happen to? It's my favorite frozen pizza. Yeah, yeah,
I really like it. It's there are three kinds of
(07:19):
pizza that are my favorite for frozen pizzas Digorno. And
it's actually reasonably priced. It's not crazy. Pizza is at
the supermarket run all the way from about eighty nine
cents for the ones that are not such good quality
up to nine ten bucks twelve dollars sometimes. So the
journo is great. And of course we've talked about Domino's Pizza,
(07:42):
their pan pizza, which you and I both love. And
there's a ball I don't know if you've ever eaten
the ballpark pizza. Ballpark Pizza is here in Orange County.
It's literally the best pizza I've had in the United States,
traditional pizza house pizza.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
But let's talk about it.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Oh, it's amazing, So talk about the journo pizza and
what's going on this.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
This is something that's been going on for a couple
of years.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
As a matter of fact, when I filled in on
Thanksgiving for you as I do every year. Amy King
was doing wake Up Call and Nick Pegliacchini he brought
one of these. He made one of these, And what
(08:26):
it is is a specialty pizza that the Journal only
puts out limited and it's a thanks Giving pizza, which
is basically Thanksgiving dinner on a crust. So you've got
roasted turkey on there, You've got green beans, you've got
mashed potatoes, you have stuffing, you have everything on this
(08:48):
Thanksgiving pizza. You know, gravy, sweet potatoes, all of these things.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Sounds a little sounds a little strange, but is it good?
Speaker 1 (08:58):
It is? It actually is.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Now I've only had a creation of someone else's who
put these things together on them, but they did work
that The limited style that or the limited pizza that
they do for De Journal is really hard to get
and they always sell out very quickly. Oftentimes you have
(09:23):
to jump through some hoop to get one. But what
sounds like the total gimmick actually is is pretty nice combination.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Oh interesting, well, because think of it.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
If you're using gravy as the sauce and stuff, then
basically the crust becomes role.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Yeah that kind of Yeah, one of the things My
favorite Dijordale piece is self rising crust because I like
a reready pizza and these are Are there any new
pizzas coming out? Are they expanding the of piezas like
Oreo cookies. Now you can get in any flavor, right,
smoked meat flavor, I mean, it doesn't matter, double crust,
(10:08):
double filling. Are the frozen pizzas doing the same thing.
Are they expanding their little selections?
Speaker 3 (10:15):
They are getting better because now you can get thin crust,
you can get all kinds of different crusts.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
That's one thing. Two, we tend to eat.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Pretty basic pizzas. We like our pepperoni, we like our
cheese pizza, We like vegetables. Every now and again, i'll
see something where somebody is more creative. They have these
higher end pizzas now that are a little chefy in
the freezer department that you can get that might have
other things on top of them that would be non
traditional or a little more cheffy or fancy. And I've
(10:50):
had some of them and they're absolutely delicious. But I
also think this happens in restaurants as well. As I've
said this on the fork Port many times, and that
is that Whenever a trend ends up on a pizza,
the trend is over. So like Beria, for example, a
stewed meat, a Mexican stewed meat that's fantastic, delicious, the
(11:15):
minute it ends up on a pizza, that trend is over.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
You know, It's just one of those things.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
People will try making pizzas out of everything, but really
we tend to like fairly traditional pizzas.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Yeah, and you know, no, the new uh, the new.
The newest pizza is the stuffed crust pizza that has cheese.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Yeah, the crust crust has been around for a while.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
They they even do pull apart pizzas where or half
and a half?
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Yeah? Those yeah, those are pricey. The stuff crust wins
are a lot more money. They're two three bucks more
and I find those just more money. But anyway, so
much for pizzas. Always keep pizza in the freezer always.
Let's finish up with ice cream sandwiches.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Oh okay, so these were These ice cream sandwiches are
crazy because they came out and people loved them. They
were at Costco and they couldn't keep them in stock.
So now Target has them and people are going nuts.
They're the Nightingale ice Cream Sandwiches just an amazing dessert.
(12:22):
And they are handcrafted ice cream sandwiches. They're available in
five flavors and people dig them. They're just they wherever
they go. They're like kind of a little bigger than
bite size, but they're they're just really good. It's like
(12:44):
higher end ice cream, you know, a cookie sandwich. The
it's not just like the chocolate cookie they have like
sugar cookie.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
They have like a chocolate chip.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
They have a chocolate Why aren't they Why are they
at Costco anymore? Because they couldn't keep the volume the
Costco wanted.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
Costco changes its things from time to time and they
would they couldn't keep them in stock when they had them.
I don't know if they're seasonal for Costco or what,
but man, they were flying off the shelves and they're Nightingale, Yes, Nightingale.
They Their website, by the way, is Nightingale ice Cream
(13:25):
dot Com.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
All right, you can find the nearest stores. But man,
very very good.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Do you have pizza in your freezer? Yeah, we usually
have pizza. You know what's funny are freezer has a
special place for frozen pizzas, like the special part of
the drawer if they stand them up so they don't
take up room or sit at the bottom.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
That's so let me ask you in terms of the
frozen pizza. These are store bought pizzas. I'm assuming that
you're not making your own and then freezing.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
But I used to.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
I used to make my own, and then you put
them on a cookie sheet and you freeze them, you know,
and then you could throw them on and cook yourself.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
I used to do that quite a bit.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
What brand is the pizza in your freezer right now?
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Oh, deserdo.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
And then I can't remember the name of the other one,
but there's a chefy one that comes in kind of
a white and yellow box.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
I think, not the that I'll get on occasion. They
have thin crust and stuff.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Yeah, that's, by the way, that's a very famous pieza,
the yellow and white box pizza.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
That's all I could see in my head.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Right people are going to go, you mean the California
Pizza Kitchen, which is also a white box with yellow
on it.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
But no, it's not that one.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Say bye, handle here Friday morning. Ask handle anything where
you record questions and I answer them for the sole
purpose of humiliating and embarrassing me. And we do that
every week at eight thirty. Neil chooses the questions that
you record and and he is well, you know Neil
(15:03):
and the way he thinks. Okay, uh, let's do it.
Ask handle anything? First question?
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Kno, Hi Bill?
Speaker 5 (15:10):
I was wondering, since we learned on Coast to Coast
last night that artificial sweeteners make you dimmer quicker, are
you going to change to a sugar free coke or
just coke?
Speaker 2 (15:22):
This is gotabay or thanks Coast to Coast? Did I
hear that right?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Yeah? So you so you Coast to Coast?
Speaker 2 (15:32):
You know what I listened to Coast to Coast once
or twice. It's all about Martian anal probes. That's what
Coast to Coast is about. I was sitting there and
the Martians would be up in their space craft and
all of a sudden they drilled my real rear end
and man, it hurt like hell and I then was
brought down again. That's the show.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Well, they also talk about health issues apparently, Oh.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
I got, yeah, I get. Oh. The Venusians said that
it's study they just did on Venus. Okay, great, Coast
to coast. Okay, moving on, George Northwich.
Speaker 5 (16:08):
Bill, I'm curious that while you were on your cruise,
did you promote or even talk about Zetlment's mouth mints.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Yeah? I did. Actually I was. You know, people were
asking me about it because I was popping them in
my mouth and people said yeah and yeah. Okay, that's
a quick answer. How about yes, I did all right.
By the way, thank you to Zelman's for picking this
guy and writing him a small check. They asked that question. Okay,
(16:39):
moving on.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
Bill, You've made references about how you used to do
a lot of cocaine back in your younger days. I'm curious,
can you tell us about the last time you did cocaine?
Did you have a good time? Was it high quality stuff?
Did you know it was going to be your last time?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Yes? Yes and no no, Yes, yes and yes, high
quality stuff? Absolutely. What was the first question? When was
the last time I did it? In nineteen eighty three
when I went into drug rehab. And by the time
I went into drug rehab, yeah, I pretty well realized
that was my last time. I was pretty desperate to
go in there. And yes, it was pretty good quality.
(17:17):
I became in a Fisonado.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
What was the problem with you? Was it the cost
or yes? The effects? Why?
Speaker 2 (17:26):
No, it wasn't well the effects. I mean you get
more and more addicted, and I ended up you need
more to feel good. And so I was spending all
of my money on cocaine. I was in my office.
I lived in my office. I had a shower in
my office because prior to me going in, there was
a and this is real, there was a porno company
(17:48):
that had that office and they built this huge open
shower and when I moved in, they had left. You
could actually the two by fours on the floor for
the camera dolly that they could pull back the camera
were there, and it was red flocked everything. It looked
like an Iranian whorehouse. And it was, uh that was
(18:09):
my eye lived there because I spent all my money
on cocaine and I and I was making a good
living as a lawyer. I mean from day one, I
was making a healthy living and it all went to
cocaine for four years.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
It sounds like better call Saul. That's uh, that's that's rough.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
Uh yeah it was, it was and I yeah, it
was really it was not a good time. Okay, I
think we have time for one more before the break.

Hey, handle, So you say, when you're going to retire,
which for us won't be soon enough, you want to
go have a place in Italy for a while to
hang out.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
But why not back to your home country?
Speaker 2 (24:36):
Uh? Brazil? Because Brazil is half a toilet? Actually, Brazil
is a is a very tough place to live, a
lot of crime. It's just not the same.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
And Italy sort of. I've enjoyed Italy and Lindsey is
crazy about Italy, and so we planned on staying there,
probably a couple of months a year or depending, you know,
depending on how much money I have, because you know,
keeping two places is not inexpensive. What do I look like?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
John Jill's filthy rich?

No, she will be, but she she has to kill
her parents.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
