Speaker 1: All start to what you want to presents. Off the
bench with Jacob Hester and T Bob Abert.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 3: Off the bench with Jacob Hester and C Bob aber.
Speaker 2: I gotta come off the bitch.
Speaker 1: Now here's Jacob Hester and T Bob Abert.
Speaker 2: What's up y'all? Welcome back our number three of o
TP And we got big Dealer, no big deal and
then we got munchies and chef Michael Johnson, and then
we gotta take to NFL story of the day to day.
You're gonna go downhill after chef, but it still gonna
be a fun hour. You're gonna come hang out. YouTube
dot Complash one of four or five ESPN is where
you can get all your comments in the YouTube chat.
I'm sorry it should be uh paying more attention to
chat today, I have not. I don't know exactly's been
talking about ever since we wished hen Dog a happy birthday.
It seems like a lot of people still talking about
the Alex Bregman news. H As far as the MLB goes,
can anybody even compete with the Dodgers though?
Speaker 4: I mean, it's actually is any kind of getting insane,
It's it's past.
Speaker 2: It's it's ludicrous.
Speaker 4: It is ludicrous how much talent they have, and you
look at gosh, you look at.
Speaker 2: The options they have.
Speaker 4: In their lineup, and it is just an embarrassment of
riches in their rotation and what it potentially can be.
Speaker 2: It's and aren't they doing the things where they're like
kind of like not even paying the guys where they
are paying them, like the weird deferred payment thing.
Speaker 5: They kicking the can down that yeah, in terms of
like competing with them with money and being able to
build that Rosters and the Mets they have so much
money really then yeah, the Mets and the Dodger. But
I feel like the Dodgers are about to get the
MLB a salary cap.
Speaker 2: That's what I gonna say, because it feels like it's
getting the point of it. I guess the only way
that actually happens, though they have to rattle off what
three in a row, four in a row. I don't
know exactly, but I mean it does feel like they're
they're they're here on the edge of creating a perpetual
success machine right where it's like you okay, so you
win and you make more money because you make more money,
you spend bigger, you win bigger, and then the cycle
just It's kind of like how Alabama during the Nick
Saban era, where it was you win cornered, you get recruits,
and then because you get recruits, you win, so on
and so forth. They corner what market China?
Speaker 6: Japan?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, China? Uh yeah, I know, I think get
all the best Japanese players. But you guess. California and
Japan have always been kind of linked in American history,
and some not great ways necessarily, but probably better for
than be linked through baseball. Su Nookie says, MLB's a
garbage product, which breaks my heart. Until the Nerds are
banned for life, I will be loyal to college baseball.
Speaker 5: Uh yeah, it's like a popular opinion right now.
Speaker 2: Yeah, is tatea Dodgers fan? That would make sense? Why
would that make sense?
Speaker 7: What about like, I'm pretty contrary to like the I
always call out like the Bandwagon fans and all that.
You're a Cowboys fan, guys like Chuck guys, the Cowboys
have not made the NFC Championship in my lifetime. Only
teams a bandwagon er fan, I could pick a good one.
Speaker 2: Only team to not make the NFC Championship. Now pick
a good one with the commedi's making it. Hell yeah,
h William and this is cowboy. Dodgers fans go hand
in hand. Yeah exactly, I'm not a Yeah, he's a
Dodger Chat says your Dodger shants confirmed.
Speaker 7: I actually don't like any LA or New York team
really in any sport?
Speaker 2: Do you like an MLB team? Not a big MLB guy.
Speaker 7: I mean, I'm always just like, hey, I've been to
a bunch of Astros game.
Speaker 2: That's kind of my team.
Speaker 7: I I really I don't have an MLB team.
Speaker 2: I caught him Miguelta hot a foul ball one time.
That's cool. That's kind of cool. It's very cool in
Minnesota at a twins A's game. Is this when you
went to the Mall of America? Yes, same road trip.
We were driving to Canada. Me and my best friend
and his father drove to Canada to go walleye fishing.
How they go. It's great. Caught some fish that was
a roller coaster inside the mall. Didn't get to ride it.
Speaker 6: M that's what that's like. You're missed opportunity.
Speaker 2: No sales text then that I didn't buy anything. I
was a kid. I didn't have a walk. I thought
you had a wallet on a chain. I actually never
had a wallet on a chain. I wanted a wallet
on a chain. There's no chance that you did, I know.
With the black denim shorts, I mean I thought they
sold those things with chain wallets, but no, I always
wanted one, just like I wanted frosted tips, just like
I wanted hair from Sean from Boy Meets World, which
I guess I finally kind of got the Seawan hair
going on a little bit now, So you know, never
give up on your dreams. Kids. While I fish's great
to see Tea, it was. It was very, very fun.
It was very cool.
Speaker 5: I will say that as someone that like tortures themselves
by watching the MLB. Still it is pretty It's not
my favorite thing.
Speaker 2: Jake, how we feel about the Bravos.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know they lost Max Free to the Yankees.
That's that's a little troublesome. Obviously he was their arm
that was consistent, and you know, I know he had
some injuries. But Spencer Strider is somebody that makes you
nervous just because it's like, yeah, can he can he
take the torque that he gives his body a right
giant legs, legs, but a little body, you know, Ronald Acunye,
if he can get back and he can be healthy.
You made a couple of additions. So they'll be in
the fight. I don't know that they have what it
takes to win a World Series, but they'll be in
the fight. And their division is just so tough with
the Phillies and the Mets spending all the money that.
Speaker 2: They can, so they'll be there. They'll have a chance.
It be tough to get it done, though. It'll be
tough to beat the Dodgers. Yeah, exactly, it's crazy. Uh,
just the trip was a lot of fun, guys. I
remember playing Zeno Saga on the PS two the whoay
up there? Well, my friend's dad listening to Lord of
the Rings book on tape. Quite nice, quite nice for sure.
Let's do a little waxy Brokay, let me tell you
about Boodro's Electrical. Okay, you go to Boudrox Electrical dot
com and look you to getting that generator generator for
your home. Okay. Bojos of course, one of the top
generac dealers in the entire city. Really in the entire
country over none certified Generact texts ready to go, because
that's the thing at Budro's. Okay, we're family run, we're
customer first. Those are our core guiding principles and what
that means. If you're gonna be customer first, you're gonna
be selling generators. Huh what do you need to do? Uh?
You need to make sure they work? Okay, So twenty
four to seven monitoring, make sure your system is online,
good to go when you need it, and leaving no
stone unturned to accomplish that deal. And remember and not
just the number on a spreadsheet, spreadsheet to Boujo, it's
a lot of private equity buying up these other companies
in town. They get generators, not non abujos. So you
want the local guys who love you, who give a
damn about you the person, and want to make sure
that you are protected. You want to go to Budros.
And if you're electrician looking for work, We've got great wages,
h great culture. Check them out. Boudo's Electrical dot Com,
budros Eelectrical dot Com, more power, more protection. Uh, beg
you on nobigill.
Speaker 8: No big deal, No big deal, big deal no big deal,
no big deal?
Speaker 2: Well, man, then you how do I feel about Kyle
Tucker going in to the Cubs. I think it's a
great pickup. You know, I'm not gonna say it makes
some division champs or anything, but uh, I think I
think wild card is kind of the goal for this year.
You know, we just want to be relevant come August October,
and I think Tucker gets you a step closer to
doing that.
Speaker 6: How do you think he's gonna do it.
Speaker 2: By playing well? Okay, gotta stay healthy, gotta stay healthy.
That's gonna be key ext position.
Speaker 5: I forget, Uh, what's up, Kyle Tucker?
Speaker 6: I forgot what position?
Speaker 2: No, we're not, We're not why to telling about Cole Tucker.
It's a big deal or no big deal? Big dealerer,
no big deal? Pat Mahomes Senior and John Rocker fighting
a rough and rowdy fight. I'm gonna say, no big deal.
I have no desire to watch this, and I'm gonna
say that I'm pissed because we all got played. Everything
in that video was a work. We got played. Yeah,
there was never never really fighting on bourbon. Uh. And
you know what makes me sad? I bet you even
the voice in the background is a plant that rock
I bet you. I don't even think that's real anymore.
It went from a video that I sincerely loved with
all of my heart to now one that I despise
because it was just gorilla advertising.
Speaker 7: You make a good point, like the thick accident like
that that that does that because everything funnier. So yeah,
that probably was a plant.
Speaker 2: So no big deal to me. Not gonna watch, Yeah,
no big deal.
Speaker 7: Nobody cares like the winner though I heard that winn
the winners fighting Jake Paul. It's confirmed.
Speaker 2: Also, none of those fights have been good, not as
single like no, I mean I remember even even probably
the only rough and rowdy that I thought was kind
of interesting outside looking in was the U when jose
Canseco was taken on Hank I think, and if I
was garbage, you could take those older like it's I
don't know, uh now again genius advertising. But I'm a
little salty because we got played so hard. Yeah, and
I do think they really hate each other, but they're
probably both gonna be paid. I said, what is my
home senior doing? Brou I don't know, I don't that's
not a pocket. I don't know why he feels like
he needs to do. That's what I'm saying. That's a
little Craig Craig. The only part of it that I
like is that technically it's Mets braves.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, you know now I can get behind that.
Speaker 2: And Mets braids from the air and with some mets
of brains. Really hated each other, Yeah for sure.
Speaker 4: I mean Chipper named his child after dominating the Mets.
Speaker 2: Man. You could tell the video, you couldn't tell the
video stage you thought it was real? Yeah, I did. Okay,
whatever screen you did, I wanted.
Speaker 6: To Yeah, I wanted to believe it.
Speaker 4: I wanted to believe that they were getting after each other.
Speaker 2: I still watch it. I think it's the biggest deal. Okay,
biggest he's fact.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 4: The Sacramento Kings agreed to a deal with former number
one overall pick Markel Fults.
Speaker 7: Huh, No big deal case Markel Fultz is back in
the headlines.
Speaker 2: No big deal. But I was because I talked to
my wife the other day. I played garbage tennis a
few nights ago, and I like, I felt like I
had the yips, like things that I felt like, things
that I felt like I was passed. I just I
could have hit a forehand. It was just awful. I
was very upset, and she was like, well, what's the yips?
And then yeah, I told her the markl Fult story,
how you had a number one overall pick in the
m A that literally forgot how to shoot to shoot,
like they literally not like became a bad shooter, like
physically unable to do the biomechanical act of shooting. Yeah.
Speaker 7: Last season he shot twenty two from three seven point
eight points per game.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean, bro, there was a point where
he couldn't even physically shoot free throws, like not even
touch the rim.
Speaker 6: Laudrum A big deal or no big deal.
Speaker 5: When Aaron Glenn met with Aaron Rodgers after the season
and to like talk about what Aaron Rodgers future with
the Jets was going to be, he told him that
if he if they were going to do this, he
couldn't go on the Pat McAfee show anymore. So Aaron
Glenn silencing Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 2: Big, I like this because the Jets spread their legs
and laid prostrate for he did Aaron Rodgers and it
just went awful, terrible. It went awful. I mean, at
a certain point, you gotta have some culture. It's like
there was an Alabama quote the day with one of
the players somebodhow this year can't be being late to
workouts and everything else. I'm like, hold up, y'all are
letting cats be late to workouts? Yeah? Kaylin, what are
we doing?
Speaker 6: Oh wow?
Speaker 2: It sounds crazy, But like, let's say somebody cuts called
cheating on the test, maybe even gets arrested for drinking
or something. They're really good. You're still going to fight
to keep him on the team. But if you're showing
up late to workouts, you're out of here, Like you
gotta have a line in the sand, and so good
on Aaron Glynn, I agree with you.
Speaker 6: I think it's a.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what's going on.
Speaker 5: Aaron Glenn just trying to like, hey, we're not doing
this anymore. You wanted, We gave you the world and
you kind of just slapped us in the face.
Speaker 2: So he's gone there, Right, that's over.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's ok.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because he didn't agree to the terms.
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's a great move by Aaron Glenn.
Speaker 2: Also a good way to get him out of there.
Speaker 7: Rogers love fest of like, hey, this guy can do
no wrong, Like, let's stop off all that. Like Aaron Rodgers.
He ran Mike McCarthy out of Green Bay because he said, oh,
I can't win with Mike McCarthy. Still couldn't win. He
hand picks Matt Lafleur. Still couldn't win. Oh I'm leaving.
I'm going to the Jets. This is the staff I
want up. Can't win, not my fault. Let's fire Robert
sala That happens, and you lose less games without Robert
Salad than you had with him, Like Aaron Rodgers, isn't
the problem.
Speaker 2: This was a great move.
Speaker 7: It It was good for both sides to just move on. Yeah,
just move on from the Aaron Rodgers dilemma. West Virginia
quarterback Pat White is returning to his alma mater to
join Rich Rodriguez's staff. The school announce yesterday he will
be the assistant quarterbacks coach and the assistant to head
coach Rich Rodriguez.
Speaker 2: Big dealer, no big deal, massive deal to West Virginia
fans as Rich rod continues to assemble all of the
WVU Avengers. Right, I mean we got Pat White back
in McAfee's on board. I know you brought into my
old coaches and stuff. Is Steve Slaton there anywhere? Have
we had a Steve Slayton's side yet, Noel Devine. I
think it's involved in some way. Rich Rod says, Hey,
sometimes to go forward, you gotta go back, and we're
getting the band back together, and I hope it works. Yeah,
I mean, I think surely he's coming at some point. Again, Alvo,
I know it sounds insane when I say something like
if you get like arrested, like a DWI or something
that like that's something you work through. They use plural.
I didn't say plural, but still, I know that sounds crazy,
but I've seen it time and time again, Like that's
how warped sometimes the creation of culture and like something
like football could be. Is that the sign of people
consistently being late to workouts or skipping workouts is actually
more of a sign of a broken culture than a
college kid getting arrested. I know that, I know that's insane,
but do you get what I'm saying, Yes.
Speaker 5: Because like the duys and getting arrested is more like
of an individual thing like that individual went out and
sped and strength.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe that's it.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but when like the whole team is being late.
Speaker 2: When you're allowing it, you allow somebody to do that. Yeah,
I mean it's like you got to draw a line somewhere.
Speaker 6: Actually get what you're saying.
Speaker 2: I'm just shocked that they came out. They said like
fos kum, like come down, big deal? Are no big deal?
Carson Beck and Cavender or Carson Carson Beck and uh
one of the Cavenders are trying to be Levy Done
and Paul Skiings. Have you seen these videos?
Speaker 6: No, it's so bad that you showed us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's there's there's there's more of a mountain.
Speaker 6: I don't care. So no big deal.
Speaker 2: It's I mean, no big deal. But it's funny. I'm
not even granting them the rank of Kirkland brand. Done
and Skims.
Speaker 6: They're like great value, they're great dollar general.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're It's it's bad. It's that very very critch.
Speaker 6: I don't have any more.
Speaker 4: It's yeah that video I think you said it yesterday?
Speaker 2: Is that? Don I end up taking a group yesterday?
I could remember. Not. Yeah, it's not good. It's not
good at all. It's it's not good.
Speaker 6: Did y'all know that? Paul Skins can shred the guitar.
Speaker 2: No, of course, what like actually play?
Speaker 6: He can actually play guitar.
Speaker 5: Yes, he went up with Tucker wet Moore at the
Texas Club.
Speaker 2: What yeah, I need to see this. What can this
man not do? Did you get video of it?
Speaker 6: I didn't get video of it. No, but I can
try to find some wow way to go?
Speaker 2: I mean pathetic, do your job? How about that? Speak? Okay,
never mind, sorry t Yeah, they're te live in great
value Paul Skins, I agree?
Speaker 4: What about dun Kannegg for the Lakers speaking a big deal?
Speaker 2: No big deal.
Speaker 4: Was basically traded to the Charlotte Hornets and then the
trade doesn't work out.
Speaker 2: Now he's got to go back and play for the Lakers.
Speaker 7: Oh no no, yeah rated him for Mark Williams because
they needed the big man.
Speaker 2: Mark Williams seems like a fake name, but now he's
a real guy. Get a jersey and everything.
Speaker 7: That health Uh he failed as physical, so the Lakers
rescinded the trade. So Tom connect has to go back
into a locker room for a team that just traded.
Speaker 2: You know, how about cannecks? You all remember Connects? Yep?
Those are tight wedline the Lakers were like, yeah, yeah, no,
you're good, You're good. Do come on coming back. I
haven't even seen this one. This is just one of
they keep doing this and carson Beck looks so awkward.
They both do every single one. She kind of knows
more of what she's doing.
Speaker 6: Ring, I guess is what I was looking for.
Speaker 2: Yeah, cringe is definitely how I feel about Carson Beck.
He just stands there all really every time, and he
kind of half does whatever they plan on doing. All right,
I'm gonna end big o'noviad deal with something that I
think is a big deal and it's awesome, and it's
taxa very positive state of Louisiana. I've ever read this
in The Advocate this morning. Okay, Louisiana students at the
nation in recovering from pandemic learning loss and reading, and
made the second biggest recovery in math. So Harvard and
a bunch of other super smart schools did this study
and looked at Okay, Howard states recovering from where they
were pre pandemic, and Louisiana is the only state in
the country that is stronger in reading now than we
were before the pandemic, and one of only two states
where the math scores are back to pre pandemic levels.
So that Thomas Kine, the director for the Center of
Education Polity Research at Harvard University, he says, is it
really sets Louisiana part Hell yeah, let's go, dude. Shout

Munchies was not? Got? Chef Michael Johnson will he answers

Speaker 1: Get ready to tantalyze your taste buds and leave this

Speaker 2: He chef, what's up?
Speaker 9: Brother?
Speaker 2: Missed you last week?
Speaker 9: Man?
Speaker 2: How are we doing today?

Speaker 9: Brother? Were you guys just listening to s WV? Is

don't so I'm always out of my depth on R
and B Thursday's Chef, but uh so you're not.
Speaker 9: I mean I know some of it, man, You know,
I got a little soul with me.
Speaker 2: Okay, so I mean you be what youv what do
you pair that with a little whipped cream?
Speaker 9: Night?
Speaker 2: Maybe a little That's what I'm saying. What kind of food?
Because actually.
Speaker 9: Chocolate dip, strawberries and some champagne.
Speaker 2: Now what about likes him? Just likes him like bacon
and like sausage links. Oh maybe like just poor little
oh you all over your partner?
Speaker 9: Yeah, oh, eat a little garlic bread off the nipples,
you know what I'm.
Speaker 2: Question then on what do you listen to?
Speaker 6: What do you listen to in the kitchen when you're cooking?
What's on the pylist?
Speaker 9: Yes, it kind of depends, right, like what kind of
a kind of a you know, because lunchtime is very
fast and erratic, so it's usually something more upbeaten, faster paced.
But at dinner time, you know, it's it's a little
bit slower and more relaxed, like and if I'm washing dishes,
it's almost always elting John, you know, like, uh, hell yeah,
I like a little amos lee in the kitchen at night,
you know, like it I had a chef that would
compare cooking to making love. And you know, during during
the day, it's a quickie and about you know, getting
the point through and so you know, you slow it down,
and so I think the music usually pairs well with
that with that psychology. There.
Speaker 2: Yes, let's just keep this train rolling because our first
Monkey's question of the day came in the chat hashtag monkeys.
Does chef believe in culinary aphrodisiacs? Like? So, I mean,
you know, we always heard oysters were and now science
says they're not. But in my mind, oysters will always
make you horny. Do you believe in culinary afrodisiacs?
Speaker 9: I do, And and you know you can call you
can call it what it is science, you know, like
I don't think the science proves everything first of all,
you know, like the science of yesterday has been disproved today,
and the science that today is going to be disproved tomorrow. True,
you know, like I don't necessarily believe that all things
are proven through science necessarily. I think that some things
are are you know, not to be explained. And I
do believe in aphrodisias. I think that it's the chemistry
in the air. I think it's you know, like the
quality of what you're doing. But the oysters, you know,
have always you know, like kind of served that purpose
for me. And maybe it's the maybe it is uh
you know, the placebo effect. But yeah, I definitely dig
on oysters, and you know, I think chocolate is definitely
one of those. I think there's certainly food, food and
the act of I think sometimes you know, paarwell together depending.
Speaker 4: On hack what what is the go to Valentine's Day
dinner speaker?
Speaker 2: Like is there?
Speaker 4: Because I know I see a bunch of these already
coming in, So let me kind of group all the
questions kind of ye together.
Speaker 9: For me or or or what do you I mean just.
Speaker 2: Like in GENA, what do you think is always going
to kind of play? Well?
Speaker 9: Yeah, So for me, I like cooking in the kitchen
with my significant other and there's like a chemistry that
evolves right and and during the cooking process that the
tension kind of builds. And so it's not just about
the food that I'm eating, it's about the process of
cooking the food with her in the kitchen. But also
I think things that take time, you know, like slow
cooking process. Maybe maybe something that it's taken me a
few days to prepare because the labor and the energy
that goes into it equates to the amount of care
that I have for her.
Speaker 2: That makes wow, it's very sweet. Yeah yeah, like a
like an effort and thought being the thing that counts
the journey, not the destination.
Speaker 9: Oh absolutely yeah.
Speaker 2: Hashtag munchies so Pakstani. Phil said six more weeks a
winter and a cold front has hit South Texas and
Scott wants to know if you have any advice for
the homemade chicken and dumplings. He's playing a cook.
Speaker 9: Today roller dump sinners than what you think, you know
what I mean, because if you're if you're making them
from scratch, because when they when they hit the water
and they plump up, you know, like sometimes that's thicker
than you want and they get a little doe. And
like if I if I did one thing with my
grandmother in the kitchen, it was spend time watching her
do her dumplings, and I was always amazed at how
sick they got even though they were rolled, spin and.
Speaker 2: So well they were well you're saying they were they
were growers, not showers. The dumplings.
Speaker 9: Oh man, this is a good one that they get.
Speaker 2: Hey, Valentine's is in the air, chef. Uh, But no,
and in all serious You're you're saying that, Yeah, the
page like the it's going to expand.
Speaker 9: Yes, there's definitely some swelling.
Speaker 2: Yeah you dog, you dirty dirty dog. Hashtag munchies. Bill
says I'm heavy. Miss Bill over there Gallantine's Day, Pizza Night,
Best wine to go with red pizza sauce and best
wine to go with pesto.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I think red pizza sauces is going to be
a deep read or at very least a medium red
you know, kind of tomato tomato and and deep breads
go well together in the in the words of Hannibal Lecter,
maybe a nice kiante. Yeah, something something kind of uh,
heavy bodied red and with pesto, you know, with with
that oil based you know, something that's kind of fruity
and white, like a a Savignon blanc is going to
I think go go well with a pesta. The fruitiness
and and you're kind of looking for something that slightly acidic,
like citrusy, almost to cut through, cut through the oil
in the fat of the of the pesta.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 2: Here's a very simple one chef from Daniel hashtag munchies.
What's on your ballpark dog with you know, coming up
Friday in honor of What's in your Ballpark Dog?
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, gosh, that's a tough one. Because I
worked in so many ballparks. I have a lot of favorites, man,
you know, like it's almost kind of where where you
are is what's going to be best, you know, Like
I love being in Chicago and having a Chicago style dog.
I love, like it's almost like having a meal on
top of a meal, like the sports peppers, the tomatoes,
the green relish, you know, like and and and I
have to have yellow mustard on my dog no matter what.
I don't care where I'm at. The exception to that
is I had a a Jappa dog in Vancouver. It's
so it's it's a Jappa dog and it's like you
take a hot dog and put Japanese toppings on it,
like uh, oh gosh, what all what all do they put?
They've put cofu on it sometimes, but they've put like
bonito flakes and and uh and and like oh man, yeah,
jafpad dog is a big Northwest thing, but it's kind
of a Japanese seam food of is a kayaks foul
foods like little little appetizers to South foods, like maybe
even some it's not I don't. I don't know if
it's Ramen and Japanese, but it's it's kind of Ramen style,
you know, like when you put even some noodles on
it or something of that nature. It just it's it's
remarkably good. And you put like a soy sauce or
a hoisting sauce on it as well, and it's it's
interesting and I don't know, when you're there, it makes sense,
you know. Now I am an idiot for a chili
cheese hot dog. I can. I can be anywhere and
have a chili cheese hot dogs. So but it's gonna
have mustard on it too.
Speaker 2: It is funny, like chili cheese dogs are low, I Q,
but they're wonderful because of the food right there.
Speaker 9: I've spent so much time in the stadium business that
to this very day, if I smell a package of
hot dogs like the rapper open up and you smell
that like raw hot dogs smells, I start salivating. Tablobs
dog you like, and I'll eat hot dogs raw cold too,
you know, like it's it's the weirdest thing. I don't know,
I don't know it's it's not something that I have
control over anymore. Man Like it. I've worked around the
business for so long that you know, I think I
sufficed off of you know, like my sustenance for a
few years was cold hot dogs in the kitchen. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I used to smash them growing up. Also, like cold
on Dewey when you're making gumboat, like whenever you slice
it up already, drob, I just keep just in, I mean,
like a pound of it every time.
Speaker 9: Now, well I'm sorry, no, yes, well I was gonna say,
you know, like I am kind of a snob to
the type of hot dog now, you know, like, yeah,
I'm not. I'm not eating in all meats thought us
hot dog. You know, like maybe when I was a kid,
I might have eaten that stuff, but now it's got
to be an all beef, you know, like kosher style
hot dog. And it's noticeable difference, you know, like I
have to have a I'm i'm I'm a I'm a
you know, bougie to the hot dog.
Speaker 2: Now Jam says are raw cold hot dogs at Afridisia
there says cold raw Glizzie is crazy. I told you guys,
so cold too. Guys remember being eating left So I've
been eating leftover smashburgers all week chef, because for my birthday,
I got a brand new four burner Blackstone Gorilla bro
It's incredible. It's been an hour and a half season
in her up on on on on on Sunday. She
looks great, she's performing great. Uh, give me something to
cook on it this this weekend.
Speaker 9: Gosh, I don't know. You got smash burger in my
head now, man, Like I'm you know, and I'm it's
not my preference to have a smash burger. I like
a big, needy, like medium throughout burger. But you know
it's done right. A smashburger has this place. Uh and
if you like for the kids, like, oh my god, man, yeah,
you're true. You know what I mean? When we put
case d is on the menu here, no matter what
the hell is in it, it could be a breakfast
case idea. It could be a breakfast for dinner case idia.
You know, like you can put almost anything in a
case of dia feta, cheese and chicken, you know, like
and spinach and it's gonna go over well. So I
don't know, I think case Ida is one of those
things that goes over really well on a blackstone. You
can do a lot of stuff on a blackstone, man.
You know, like you can make a burrito and put
it on the and put it on thetone and heat
it up and do like a grilled burrito. We used
to reminds me, we used to do a thu rito
in Seattle. So you take all the ingredients of fuff noodles,
pork belly, all that stuff and and put it and
wrap it into a burrito you know, warm, not not
not with the not with the jew though, not with
the broth, and then you know, like grill it and
then you can dip it and then serve it with
a bowl of fubb broth. And it's it's kind of
like a mixture between you know, a Mexican burrito and
a and a Philly cheese steak. Right good, oh man,
it was incredible. And yeah, put it on that. Put
that on there, you know what I mean. And you
can grow your pork belly on there too. You can
do your bacon on there. Man. In fact, I think
we need to throw some bacon on it right now,
you know.
Speaker 2: So that was so the first thing I did was
the burgers, and of course Baker was there as well,
But I really give I love breakfast making them from
scratch pancakes all that, and I did my first breakfast
on at breakfast Dinner earlier this week, and it's funny
things move so much faster. I'm used using one cast
iron pan and having a wash in between everything, but no,
this is like I felt a little overwhelmed, but it was. Yeah,
it was super fun. Definitely.
Speaker 4: I hear you talk about obviously like New Orleans got
unique cuisine, but when I hear you talk about Seattle,
I feel like it's always a little bit different, Like
there's some stuff that is very unique to Seattle. I
know you've lived a lot of different places, but it
does feel like Seattle holds it a pretty, you know,
big place in your heart, just because of all the
things you got to do.
Speaker 9: It is. I think one of the special things about
Seattle is they have really truly authentic ethnic foods there. Right,
there's a heavy saturation of and I think New Orleans
does as well, but it's so old and so established
that some of it kind of melds together and it
kind of has this Southern toll to it as well.
Whereas in Seattle, the ethnic foods there are very real
to their to their background, and you know, like a
lot of a lot of the people who have opened
those establishments have just you know, immigrated over and so
you're you're getting truly authentic ethnic foods, which I really love.
You know, I love eating Vietnamese food. I love eating
Thai food. You know, one I Develt a really great
relations to the Indian guy who is some of the
best curries that you've ever had, and Vietnamese curries or
Thai curries rather. You know, like I really love that
you could go outside of your norm and be there
very quickly. They have an international district there that you know,
I had. Part of my job that both stadiums was
going out and building relationships with minority minority restauranteurs and
bringing that into the stadium to celebrate who Seattle was.
So I got to build relationships with dozens, if not
one hundred chefs that were, you know, really flourishing at
what they did. I mean, I know a lot of
people that are there chefs in Seattle that if you
guys go up there, you know, like it's just hole
in the wall, little places that are mom and pop
food and just doing it extraordinarily. Well, man at I.
Speaker 2: Love you, chef. I could talk to you all day,
Unfortunately have to go. I'm so freaking hungry. Now you
have a great day, my friend. Thank you as happy

Speaker 6: By the way.

had to get my dad to send me like his
R and B.
Speaker 2: Yeah, hell yeah, hell yeah. You gotta go with the.
Speaker 5: Old head for some R and B, but I had
to dig deep for R and B Thursdays.
Speaker 2: You gotta go with the oatheads on army. Hey, uh,
let's do a little Titanvil Story of the Day.
Speaker 1: It's time for Tata's NFL Story of the Day day,
your daily dose of NFL news from Taylor Sharp.
Speaker 7: Okay, Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals. They obviously need
to re sign not only Jamar Chase but t Higgins.
Both of them's contracts are up. Jamar Chase has been
I mean, uh, Joe Burrow has been very vocal about
the fact that he wants both of them back. He
was on the part in Might Take podcast yesterday and
he said that, uh, He's willing to convert some of
his money to signing bonus. He said it would lower
the cap hit you know, just kind of kick the
can down the round.
Speaker 2: New Orleans sings.
Speaker 7: Dude, Well, because someone asked, look you Signday five years.
Speaker 2: He's not giving up any money.
Speaker 7: But yeah, he's not giving up the money, and he
really wants chasing t Higgins both back. I gotta say,
I don't think that's a good idea. Back, Jamar, Chase
T Higgins is great. Problem is, your offense was fine.
Trey Hendrickson wants a new deal. He let the NFL
in sacks. You have to bring him back. You have
to get multiple pieces on the defensive side of the ball,
as well as shore up your offensive line. As good
as T Higgins is, he's about tenth in.
Speaker 2: The pecking or whatever. Also has to say this publicly.
You know what I'm saying, Like, he can't be seeming
to favor one of his receivers over the other. I'm
sure behind closed door, I'm not sure. Behind closed doors,
I'd probably be like, well, you know, like, I mean,
whatever happened to T.
Speaker 3: I mean.
Speaker 7: Signed and he's a top five receiver. But Higgins is great.
You gotta move on from T Higgins.
Speaker 2: Speaking of Joe Burrow, big loss for me in a
laundry yesterday. Yeah, as Joe Burrow and Taylor Rooks were
out to eat, seemingly looked like a date. They both
look stunningly beautiful.
Speaker 6: A beautiful.
Speaker 2: She had cleavage out, he had his pearly whites out.
Speaker 5: It was maybe I'm being an optimist. Yeah, it didn't
look like a date to me. It looked more like
it looked more like an event that they were at.
Speaker 6: They were drinking seated together.
Speaker 2: You really drinking white wine or water, So maybe you're.
Speaker 6: Right drinking wine. I drink wine at events, so do I.
Speaker 2: But I was just saying I didn't see like a
deep red. Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I feel like a red is what you go for.
Speaker 2: On a date unless you both look so hot.
Speaker 6: They both look great.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 7: Look, I mean, I gotta say, those are some big smiles. Guys.
Speaker 2: That might be a big smiles, might be a huge smile.
There's tension if it is an event, there's tension anyway.
Speaker 7: In particular, She's leaning.
Speaker 5: I'm only saying it because of the people in the background.
It doesn't look like a restaurant set up to me,
that's it.
