Speaker 3 (01:19):
You didn't lose last year. You just did not participate
due to some.
Speaker 5 (01:21):
Technical Yeah, I was banned temporarily. I guess I like
to eat a bunch of things, and there was some conflicts.
We figured it out.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
I noticed that the ratings, uh skyrocketed this year.
Speaker 5 (01:35):
Oh yeah, they definitely went up. Uh yeah, that that's uh.
I think that's good for everybody. It's it was it
not just me, it was that everybody worked together on that.
Speaker 6 (01:44):
Well, how many competitive eaters can you name besides Joey Chestnut?
Speaker 7 (01:48):
Thank you?
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Well come I was going to say, well there's anymore.
Speaker 8 (01:55):
What about Piggy McCory remember him? Oh boy, remember he
could put it away.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
I've got I've got lots of questions. But first of all, again, congratulations.
And I was it seventy hot dogs.
Speaker 5 (02:07):
Seventy point five? Oh man, it was. It was nice
to get back in the seventies. Didn't quite make a
run at the record at seventy six, but uh.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Is that your record?
Speaker 5 (02:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (02:16):
Right?
Speaker 7 (02:17):
They round up? Come on, be nice.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
It's because people are betting on it. Those those gambling
sites made money because some of them had the over
under above seventy and a half.
Speaker 7 (02:26):
Are you serious?
Speaker 5 (02:27):
People think I did it on purpose?
Speaker 8 (02:28):
I like no, I just you know, Tom, we hadn't
We haven't gotten a chance to talk about this. All
professional athletes all across the board are experiencing threatening behavior
on the part of fans slash people are betting on
their games.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
This is a big problem.
Speaker 5 (02:43):
Big Ben your requests. I lost money on this.
Speaker 8 (02:45):
Yeah, maybe you could have eaten two more hot dogs,
Joey Camire, I want to show you my trunk, you know.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Yes, I remember in the early days prior to this problem.
I can remember Peyton Manning in here telling us that
it started to bug him when people would come up
to him. Instead of wanting to know about any particular game,
they were upset about certain stats because of their fantasy
football team. Yeah, and which he'd bugged him because they'd
kind of lost the meaning of team sports, right because
(03:15):
it was all about that. But yeah, that's that is
that is kind of a weird problem. But Joey, I'm
looking at some of the stats here. Now, you did
eat seventy and a half hot dogs, so you received
your seventeenth mustard belt. Yeah, Now do you get a
new one each time or does that same one get passed? Like?
Speaker 5 (03:32):
Yeah, yeah, I got I got a new one. I
have a bunch of them. Where do you keep them?
They're all throughout the house. A couple of friends have
them in their restaurants. But yeah, yeah, they're definitely bars.
And I have lots of questions.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
But we were talking about something that's kind of off
topic earlier, which was this this naked bowling event tomorrow.
We were asking what athletes would be the the sexiest
I guess to see naked your fellow competitors, would any
of them be? Do you think you'd want to see
them nude?
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Website?
Speaker 5 (04:17):
I was picturing things in my head and I don't
think any Okay, I know, Okay, you've never competed naked.
I don't think ratings would go up. Now.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
I bring this up because Pat Godwin right over there,
sitting next to you, has actually performed at a nudist colony.
Speaker 5 (04:33):
Yeah, and a nude cruise, stud and a nude cruise.
Do you have to go nude?
Speaker 1 (04:37):
No?
Speaker 5 (04:37):
Thank god that I ever.
Speaker 7 (04:40):
Thought about it. You never even once went maybe I just.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
No, no, no, no way, too modest for that show off.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Okay, you'd have your guitar though, Yeah, that would work
out better for Meekcy Musgraves went on SNL completely naked
with the guitar.
Speaker 8 (04:56):
Have you ever seen the video of It's a It's
a documentary on Netflix right now, the Red Hot Chili
Pepper Woodstock now and Flea was absolutely naked and he
held the uh he I think they held the bass.
So no, no, no, Flee was absolutely naked. I've seen
it Woodstock ninety nine absolute and he's a great bass player.
And every now and then you see the all of Flea.
(05:18):
Really he has the base in front of his Yeah,
he represents himself pretty well, he does.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
And they have played with song there was I've seen that.
Speaker 6 (05:26):
Yeah, maybe that's why it's not embarrassed, Joey.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
This is unlike any interview you've ever done where people
go the same old questions. So how soon you go
to the bathroom, Joey? Hey, no, no, we're asking about
doing the show nude.
Speaker 6 (05:38):
Do you think guys that are growers not showers are
not as inclined.
Speaker 7 (05:44):
To be nudists?
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (05:47):
Or do you think guys don't care?
Speaker 5 (05:48):
They don't they dude, just don't care about it.
Speaker 7 (05:50):
I don't care.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
Yeah, older you get this, the more, Yeah, you don't
care about it. I don't care.
Speaker 7 (05:53):
Really.
Speaker 5 (05:54):
Yeah, have you ever been to the gym. Yeah, those
old guys do not care. They're not showing anything. Are
shaving at the ship at the same.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
I and Pat and I know at the same gym.
There they the guy who was always blowing dry his
nether regions.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I'm sorry, what was he doing?
Speaker 7 (06:11):
Blowing dryer?
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Is another using the blow dryer? What are they called
blow dryer?
Speaker 4 (06:15):
The hair dryers down there, needless to say, I don't
have one dryer, I believe. Yeah, And they had to
put up a sign asking people not to do that
because that's I don't know, but I mean, yeah, you
talk about a lack of They just don't care modesty.
This guy's up there and we're talking about how he
should be running an NBA team.
Speaker 8 (06:33):
Well, as you said, you know, he probably put his
hand in a mess of goo that used to be
his friend and Charlie came along.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
You know, he doesn't care about anything. He's got every
right to do this. Okay, Well, we're joined by Joey Chestnut,
professional eater. And when did you set the record? When
did you do this? Was it seventy six hot?
Speaker 5 (06:50):
Don't Oh my gosh, I think that was twenty twenty
twenty one.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
Are you aware that next year July fourth is a
a Saturday and b two and fifty two hundred and fifty.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
I mean it's gonna be huge. You got to eat
two hundred and fifty hot times.
Speaker 6 (07:06):
But I mean you to get seventy six, I would
thank yeah, at least match the record, right exactly.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
You're really going to be under a lot of pressure,
just telling you now, so you might want to start
not eating for a while, just to keep yourself.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
I'm coming up with a plan. If you watch the video,
I looked a little bit chubby, and I uh, I'm
gonna figure it out.
Speaker 7 (07:24):
You think you were too chubby to eat?
Speaker 4 (07:27):
You know?
Speaker 5 (07:27):
You know I've been kind of lazy. I haven't been
running ever. Remember I had that leg injury. Yeah, and
I just I haven't got my cardio back.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Oh that's right.
Speaker 8 (07:35):
The holidays fell on your foot. Remember that it wasn't enjoying.
I have a money making idea for your friends that
run this thing. Okay, we've spoken to them, all right,
who's the one we talked to the younger brother?
Speaker 3 (07:46):
Right?
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Oh that's rich rich Yeah, good looking dude, very articulate
and It really sounds like his parents would have said
to him. As smart and articulate as you are, maybe
you should be I don't know, helping to write stuff
for the President of the United States. You're talking about
hot dogs. So here's my idea. Now, if you're watching
the Super Bowl, the game's over, what happens to the
(08:08):
coach of the Super Bowl? They dump Gata Rde on him? Yeah,
hear me out on this. Somebody should step up. I
would think it would be one of the mustard companies
should step up, and that someone should come up with
a giant thing of mustard and dump it on the winner.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Just think of the publicity they would know.
Speaker 7 (08:27):
But think about how gross that would be for the
person that has to be done.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
They're gonna give Joey a taste when he when he
walks up to the mustard people. What's the most famous
mustard you go up to the frenchiest people, Joey Chestnut
for French as mustard. They got you and the commercial
covered and mustard. I'm saying, I think a small taste
hundreds of thousands mustard stains I believe, I mean would yeah, yeah,
(08:52):
just don't understand how much money is at stake here,
enough money, Kobyashi's retired, Joey's gonna win. The question is,
can you do seventy six hot dogs on the two
hundred and fiftieth anniversary of this great country of ours? Yeah,
I'm just telling you. I think it's a great idea.
Just run it by him, no feeing from me. I
just this was suggested. I mean it could be ketchup.
That would be controversial, because ketchup on hot dogs that's
(09:15):
a big controversy. You could you could do whatever, sweet relish,
whatever works. Now you you dunk your hot dogs in
water and your buns excuse me, right.
Speaker 5 (09:24):
Yeah, just just the buns. I get the buns wet.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
No, you could always talk to the Gatorade folks, Duncan
and Gatoradey.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Christy, do you understand how money works.
Speaker 5 (09:35):
I mean you can do a lot for money.
Speaker 8 (09:36):
Yeah, I'll take that.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (09:41):
I know.
Speaker 9 (09:41):
If someone if someone said, mister Chestnut even instead of
duncle him in water, if you don't him and Gatory,
we're gonna give you a hundred thousand bucks, I think
he would go sign here.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
No, I would. I would make it work. Okay, I'm
just saying, make a wide. Okay, let's get to some news.
Speaker 7 (09:59):
Joey, have you ever done on a cereal eating conduct?
Speaker 5 (10:02):
I've never done cereal.
Speaker 6 (10:03):
Well, we have cereal in the news because of the
Ferrero group, known globally for nutella and Kinder Chocolates, is
expanding into the breakfast cereal market. They've agreed to purchase
Kellogg and a deal worth three billion dollars.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
I was just gonna say it has to be in
the billions, right.
Speaker 6 (10:19):
The acquisition includes popular names like fruit loops, frosted flakes,
and many wheats.
Speaker 3 (10:23):

Speaker 4 (10:55):
Uh, but uh yeah, I'm a I'm a big cereal guy.
Cereal every morning.
Speaker 8 (11:00):
Well, I think because Joey's General Mills is cinnamon, Joey
Chestnuts trade is food. Perhaps you could share with Joey
your process which you make your cereal every morning?
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Every morning I have a bowl of half grape nuts
and and corn flakes.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
What about no shredded wheat anymore? Hammer, I've switched.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
I do have shreadwheat occasionally, but if you put a
banana in there, if I had time, I would.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Get a load of this. What do you do to
the shredded wheat.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
Tom, we say shred of wheat. It comes in those
kind of like pucks. You put it in the bag,
you take a hammer and bust it all up. Otherwise,
when you're eating it, then the puck form it sprays
milk on.
Speaker 7 (11:41):
You to break it.
Speaker 5 (11:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Yeah, he likes it to be mush, you know at
the time of ingest.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
But I love Kellogg's corn flakes, by the way, not
the organic ones.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
Those are no good.
Speaker 6 (11:52):
You got to be the original, got to be the original.
Every es Cinnamonto's crunch. You can just buy the seasoning

carbs after these contests, that's when the weight really stays on. Really,
I can't lose it. Yeah, so I during the week,
I no carbs, like, no sugar, no starches at home.
So it's Friday, so my body is like, oh yeah,
I don't have a contest tomorrow.
Speaker 7 (12:49):
You get to eat whatever you want today.
Speaker 5 (12:50):
Yeah, it's gonna be a cheap night.
Speaker 7 (12:52):
So what does your cheap night consist of?
Speaker 5 (12:54):
I think the fever's playing, So I'm gonna go to
that game and I'm gonna have some hot dogs for fun?
Speaker 3 (13:00):
What fun?
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Your casual? Casual hot dog?
Speaker 3 (13:05):
It's got to be it's gotta be hard for you
to go to.
Speaker 8 (13:07):
I was at the airport one time and Joey was
sitting at a table having a nice sandwich, and I
do want to bother him because I know people come
up there and go eat now Joey.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
And I just let him go. If you get recognized today,
say how many entrees do you want?
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Joey? It's a It's usually pretty nice though. If if
it's like a nice restaurant, or the owner or the
chef comes out. They offered me like, hey, you got
to try this, and they loved me.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
Now I did some math on this, and you ate
seventy hot dogs. I'm assuming to do this math, I
said about three hundred calories.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
No, did you see the Nathans? Did they Were they
longer this year? They seemed like they were longer hot dogs.
I know it.
Speaker 5 (13:50):
When I was not there, they were the same size.
But somehow, you know, I might have had a little
ring rest. I thought, I, uh, it's been a long
time since I've had him in contest.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Real ring rust rings. Let's ring Russ's Rusty from ring. Yeah,
that ring.
Speaker 7 (14:06):
I thought you diameter.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
I thought you're talking about the exit ring.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
Ring I'm big, a more relatable you to you pat
a long time between drinks. God, okay, ring once again.
If the average hot dogs, say is three hundred calories,
I probably could do better.
Speaker 5 (14:25):
And look this up.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
You consumed uh more than twenty one thousand calories in
ten minutes.
Speaker 5 (14:32):
Yeah gosh.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
So now can you walk us through briefly the post?
Speaker 5 (14:39):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (14:40):
You weren't going to ask competitive? No, I'm not gonna answer.
I mean you, no, I have a technical question.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
Usually I offer pictures, but I'll give you video.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Do you do you have to keep it in for
a certain length of time?
Speaker 5 (14:50):
One, Yeah, I was doing interviews for about an hour
and a half. They're like they're Sports Center starting, so
you gotta you gotta stand around and do an interview
for them. And it's it's fine, Like I can tell
right away if I if it's settling deep uh sometimes
terms Yeah, if it's not settling deep, then my body
is like rejecting it. It's like I'm fighting. But I
(15:12):
knew right away I was gonna be all right. But
then it's just like I'm getting more and more tired,
and it's like all I want to do is fall asleep,
drink liquid roll over and then eventually I don't move
fast very.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Often, but okay, but you have to if you were
to technical, if you were to vomit, that would If.
Speaker 5 (15:33):
You vomit anytime on stage, you're it's d Q. So
even after like yeah, even after the contest, people like, oh,
he's the cute. It's a it's a late reversal until
I think until the until they give you the trophy. Yeah,
there's been people who after the contest they lose it
and then like, oh, places changed, So it takes a.
Speaker 7 (15:57):
Week for your body to really get back to kind and.
Speaker 5 (16:01):
It takes a while. Yeah. When I was younger, I
get recovered after like three days. And now it's like
I'm finally feeling pretty close to normal. Wow.
Speaker 7 (16:09):
You still like hot dogs?
Speaker 5 (16:10):
I love them. I love eating. It's like it's like
a runner still loves to run even though they look
like they're gonna die after a marathon. I still love
to eat.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
You know, Christie, do do what you'll love. You'll never
have to work a day in your life or whatever.
