Chaotic Banter and Workplace Anecdotes
Speaker 1Talking to the mic so I can hear you. Welcome to three dimes. We are here today for your pleasure. Your pleasure, not ours. Well, we're lying, it's for us.
Speaker 2You're talking to people in the podcast, right, because we're not live.
Speaker 1That's fine, I don't care No we're always live. We're. I'm live 24, seven, seven days a week. Now we're live. Welcome to three dimes. I'm your host, Chris, with my assistants Jay and Tony. They're here today as well, just to make sure that.
Speaker 2I get whatever he, we get whatever he wants. He wants coffee.
Speaker 1Yeah, starbucks number two. Get that fucking fruit flavored thing. Oh no, you're an eight or whatever it's called.
Speaker 2Tony ready. Ventrilo, kiss time. Ventrilo, tony, ventrilo.
Speaker 3Tony, so this one time at band camp.
Speaker 1You look very concerned in this shot.
Speaker 2I stuffed the flute up my ass and I said, hey, this feels great. I want to start playing it through my ass instead of my face. There you go. Okay, what's going?
Speaker 1on. So now you really got it big, big time here. Tony, do you say a bigot? There you go Big time. Okay, all right, we are back. I hope you've been enjoying this marathon of dimes.
Speaker 2Not really a marathon, but we had a discussion before we got on here and we we were how do you put this looking to revamp to? to try to get more attention, i guess you could say, unless, yeah, i mean, i told Tony put on his titties and take a shirt off.
Speaker 3But I don't think racial slurs are the best way to get popular. Whatever?
Speaker 1works man whatever works If anyone listens to this podcast.
Speaker 2You know Tony's full of shit and he always does this whenever we take a break. No, i mean Jay, it'll work.
Speaker 3But we can't let people know where we are.
Speaker 2You really want to open the Holocaust, jay? Yeah, your uncle was a Nazi, sure.
Speaker 3I've never said anything about your uncle's Nazi past. Some things are just between us, you're not smart. I don't know why you're putting yourself out there, you're not that smart Tony You think you are?
Speaker 2I'm not at all.
Speaker 3I could even make it through the Milwaukee public school system, the easiest of all school systems.
Speaker 2You said, you graduated.
Speaker 3I graduated from an alternative high school with Milwaukee public district with, for some reason, this particular alternative high school was dishing out actual high school diplomas.
Speaker 2Well, guess what? I didn't graduate, i don't have a high school diploma.
Speaker 1Yeah, i know, still to this day. No, i have one credit left Why?
Speaker 3don't you get it Fuck it.
Speaker 2I don't need it. What do I? what do I need it?
Speaker 3for I know you used to work for me when you filled out the job application under school and it said none.
Speaker 2No, you, tony. You wanted me so bad. It didn't matter what I put up, i didn't have application, my ass. I said Hey, tony, let me think about it. Ask me every other day Jay, are you coming to work for me, please? I want you so bad. I'll do anything you want Suck your dick, play the taint, put my finger up your butt whatever you want, i'll do it. If you come work for me, i'll give you whatever you want I said Tony, just stop, okay, just stop. Stop sucking my dick, stop falling the trail.
Speaker 3You never told me to stop sucking your dick.
Speaker 2Well, because you know it was easy and free, i said stop it, just stop it now. Okay, i don't need this conflict in my life. I work for myself, but I'll consider your donation.
Speaker 1And then, eventually. I said yes something about this seems like it's not how it went down It definitely went down, Actually, like this Jay's not that far off.
Speaker 3And then I was like Tony he just, he just changed the characters into play.
Speaker 2You, son of a bitch. You're such a fucking liar. And then I said, dad, I had a conversation with my dad because, you know, I wanted to get an elderly opinion about this. So I was like dad, what do you think about me working for Tony? I mean, I'm probably going to make a lot less and get treated like shit and have to be at work at a certain time. So all these things really backlash at me.
Speaker 3Your dad did tell me that was going to be a challenge getting you there on time.
Speaker 2Yeah, like everything that I just mentioned, and I was like dad, what do you think about this? He's like Jay, it's your life. Now You left me. He held you off like Simba.
Speaker 1Lion King was like go ahead, this is your kingdom, now I don't want your life.
Speaker 2Blue blue. What is that? What is that? Varsity blues, Varsity blues. I don't watch your live.
Speaker 3You know, my favorite part of varsity blues is that fucking talent is that they made a spoof of it. I forget what it was called. I forget what the movie was called, who did the spoof? But in the spoof of varsity blues they had the fat guy on it who kept getting concussions, yeah, and they had a counter on the scoreboard of this many concussions left to death. And I always in my head mentally think that was on actual varsity blues.
Speaker 1When you get the spoof mixed up with the real movie.
Speaker 3Yeah, i just kind of intermingled them until they became one.
Speaker 2Well, that was great that you mentioned that. They made me laugh hysterically. I'm kind of crying, but the fact of the matter is I did work for Tony for a year and a half, maybe two. I don't regret it at all because I taught him so much. He's learned so much from me that I feel like he could possibly retire if he taught someone else this same trait that I know and I've known for many years. He could and not do anything, but he doesn't do it. He just says you know what? I'm just going to take this information and work on it for myself. I'm going to take a test that no one cares about. I'm going to hire people that I can possibly train in the fashion that Jay trained me, and we'll see how things go. These are all facts. Everything is 100 percent. Everything I say is 100 percent true.
Speaker 3If it's not true, then I guess who knows, one day, jay, we're going to set up this competition and you're actually going to show up to it?
Speaker 2Yeah, probably not, because I never do know what's going to happen.
Speaker 3If I know, what the outcome of something I would have several hours late.
Speaker 2Like if I knew I was going to win the.
Speaker 3Super Bowl with a bad attitude and a protein bar. If I knew it was going to win a Super Bowl you would go win the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2I would just be like I already want it, I don't need to go to play it.
Speaker 3But if you knew you weren't going to win a Super Bowl. I would say I'm going to the Super Bowl and then not show up the day of. I like that, which happens so many times.
Speaker 2I like that little swing but you did a test where no one knows about first off, right, ctf. They're like what the fuck is that? The only thing that I thought about was first off. It's like a pyramid scheme. There's a whole. There's a whole plaque on the wall. Oh yeah, the Tony made that himself, the whole pyramid scheme.
Speaker 3Oh, they mailed that to me, this is a pyramid scheme right here.
Speaker 2This is hey, give me your money and we'll give you a little thing saying you passed the tile test, that no one cares about, And especially if you show it to a customer like, look it, I've done this and you can hire me, because I'm actually turning that picture into a truck.
Speaker 1You know, I'm painting my house myself because I could not find a tile.
Speaker 2I look for a certified painter, ctf painter Yeah.
Speaker 1I got to find a certified tile education.
Speaker 3So you're better off doing it yourself. I guarantee.
Speaker 2You asked 100 people. What is the CTF?
Speaker 3Even people in the construction. It depends on what line of work they're. One per.
Speaker 1I said in construction you'd have to go way more.
Speaker 3One person would know you ask a hundred Jewish people, they're not going to know because they're typically not in the tile industry. They're not Tyler's, no, no but they pay you to tell
Speaker 2their house, so they wouldn't care if you pass this test or not. I by right my customers.
Speaker 3Would your cuss really your customers over on 12th and capital? Oh, here we go, here we go. They don't give a fuck, they just want it cheap. They got great.
Speaker 2You'll never be unemployed. They got great security. I had my car on the whole time. I had the estimate It wasn't stolen, so what's wrong with that?
Speaker 3Jay went to arguably the worst neighborhood in Milwaukee today to do an estimate and accidentally left this car running.
Speaker 2No, they said they had good for the whole estimate. The lady told me that great security so you can leave your car running if you want to keep it warm. It's cold outside So I did.
Speaker 3Yeah, i know my customers. Houses have gates for different reasons, that's all.
Speaker 2I'm saying You suck.
Speaker 1Well, the internet's been going crazy. You guys, have you heard about this?
Speaker 2Let me hear it.
Speaker 1You've been hearing about the vegans getting upset, about people grilling in their yards and shit.
Speaker 2Oh the smell.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2They feel like that they're actually eating what they're cooking, because they smell it, because I'm so they're complaining.
Speaker 1Yeah, i read about this story. I did see that story, someone who wrote a letter to their neighbor on behalf of their vegan family members. So about, please take this seriously. The letter was written to a man who cooks breakfast for his family in the morning. It says could you please shut your side windows when cooking please? My family are vegan, we eat only plant based foods, and the smell of your meat.
Speaker 2My children hungry, sick and upset. My children feel hungry.
Speaker 1What would you do if somebody wrote you a letter and asked you not to cook the food you eat? Who does that? Well, first, off.
Speaker 2I'd be like why couldn't you just tell me?
Speaker 1to my face, that's. I mean, yeah right, why are you writing a letter?
Speaker 3Hemp based paper.
Speaker 2Something right, this natural fucking lambs coat. Okay, so I would be like yeah, first off, just tell me. You said neighbor, right?
Speaker 1Meanwhile, in other neighborhoods the wild 100s gang, the shark gang or SNG shark gang, 43 counts of federal indictment on fraud charges in a gang bust on the north side of Milwaukee. Some people are worried about the food that their neighbors are cooking. Other people's neighborhoods are getting raided by the fucking feds in a 43 count invite. indictment by the shark gang of the shark gang.
Speaker 2All right, This sounds pretty compelling Possession of selling firearms. How do I get in this gang? Do I have to catch a shark?
Speaker 1Yeah, you have to. What do I have to do? You have to catch a shark in Wisconsin. Some of these guys got like 30, 40 counts against them.
Speaker 3That sucks. Where am I going to get guns?
Speaker 1substantial male fraud offenses.
Speaker 3Ooh, probably knew somebody at the post office.
Speaker 1Fraudulent applications for the pandemic on insured employment assistance program. Millions of federal dollars were fraudulent. How many?
Speaker 2people have fucking scammed the government out of fucking the stupid and these people are pissed bullshit the fucking culvies every.
Speaker 1These people are pissed that the man's using bacon grease as his fucking potato fry.
Speaker 2That sounds like Tony right there. He keeps his back in Greece in the fridge. It's fucking disgusting of food. I put that shit down. Are you not supposed to put that on the drain Right? Well, when you live in an apartment, it's a free for all the dreams.
Speaker 1Yeah, you're an idiot.
Speaker 2I put it on the drain and I turn the hot water on and I keep the garbage to spoil, Yeah, yeah yeah, for like like a minute. I feel like that would clean the pipes.
Speaker 1Why It's just a fan spinning at this point.
Speaker 2Okay. So how long does it take for that shit to build up where the pipes are fucked? It is immediately, it is I never had a problem.
Speaker 3Thank God you don't eat big bacon, turkey bacon That can go down any drain.
Speaker 1Speaking of food, hundreds of pounds of uncooked pasta were mysteriously, mysteriously dumped in a New Jersey woods. What more than 500 pounds of uncooked pasta were discovered in the woods of Old Bridge, New Jersey?
Speaker 3It depends on what kind of pasta, because if it was, a noodle that wasn't very many lasagna noodles.
Speaker 2Yeah, it was, it was it was.
Speaker 3It was orzo billions. Yeah, I was a truckload.
Speaker 1The photo shows spaghetti noodles. It shows rigatoni's. Any farfally macaroni the elbow or spiral, the albino I don't even consider that macaroni dumped pounds and pounds of uncooked pasta into the woods because the garbage wouldn't take it. The garbage wouldn't take it, it's uncooked food.
Speaker 2But how garbage would take uncooked food. So this has to be like a whole neighborhood of people that like a restaurant congregated or that? Yes, exactly.
Speaker 1They called it a they called it a carb unloading. Does this?
Speaker 3pasta actually go bad I don't know.
Speaker 2It's good forever, Yeah, when they want you to buy more it goes bad.
Speaker 1I think it eventually does, but who knows what might have happened though. It might have got flooded in their cooker, they might have had rats and they had to throw it away because the health inspector shut them down, who knows? But then there's the other side of the. So people went to the Miami F1 Grand Prix in Miami. Someone showed a photo at the hard rock stadium in Miami for the Grand Prix, grand Prix race of a $42 Weigu steak sandwich. My God.
Speaker 2Well, you know, it's like Tony just talked about a place.
Speaker 1He what it is. It looks fine. It doesn't look like there's anything wrong with it, but it's just like sliced ham is what it looks like in barbecue sauce.
Speaker 2Tony just talked about going to a place where $500 lobster rolls.
Speaker 1You want a bit of fruit $295 for pineapple, watermelon, storm fruit, stone fruit, kiwi and coconut. How would you like a $370 salad made of watermelon, tomato and arugula?
Speaker 3No. I mean, it is what it is All right.
Speaker 2So what do you feel like would be the most ex? what would you pay for the best? The food would be where were you at brunch? No, no, no, no, no. All you can eat buffet.
Speaker 1All you can eat buffet.
Speaker 2What would you pay for the best all you can eat buffet?
Speaker 1What would be your highest price, chris, before telling you well, I would figure that your standard golden corral buffet for dinners probably already setting you around a like $19, $20 price point already like that's just your base, that's adults. So I'm thinking like if you're having a buffet at like a Resort or like at the casino or something I could imagine paying upwards of 40, 45 bucks Like a Mother's Day thing, you're probably getting. The whole is the furball 45, all right.
Speaker 2Tony.
Speaker 1Tony was at brunch for mother's day brunch, you know what?
Speaker 2was the cost, let the people know you know, I don't understand.
Speaker 1I came with bottomless memosas, right Yeah bloody Mary bar. How did you know that? because that's what mother-day brunch is okay.
Speaker 2My first job ever was a mother-day brunch. You're right. You're right.
Speaker 1The body came with unlimited desserts was only, of course. I well, I guess food wise right. But I remember the drinks and everything all in it.
Speaker 2No, I had a carnation. A carnation.
Speaker 1No, the bottomless memosas was the one thing I heard, bottomless Momosas probably yeah but no drinks You had to pay for the box with bottomless drinks for for Mother's Day still wrong.
Speaker 2Italian restaurant or something you're still wrong.
Speaker 3We went to a lovely place called the grain exchange just raped his shit. I was heard of it. How come I write his face? It's the grain. Exchange is like if you're having a wedding, i've heard of it. Yeah, and your parents are are loaded And you tell them I want this venue and they go fine. Here's your $18,000 to have your wedding in this fucking stupid room.
Speaker 2That's not even that more.
Speaker 3For a venue. It's pretty much. So you went to the grain exchange, we went to the grain exchange, and The grain exchange is owned by a restaurant company called Bartoladas Yeah, and in Milwaukee They are basically a staple of fine dining, yeah they have that they have salad gang Really great restaurants. We go to them a couple times a year.
Speaker 1I only go when I have a gift card or Or someone's taken me, because I can't afford that shit.
Speaker 3You can't afford it, you just choose not to. You spend all your money on house paint. But, My wife. Mother's Day brunch is the most important thing to her. It's very nice. This is what she wants to do, it's. I don't buy her a gift. She doesn't get a card for me Ventriloquism all she wants is a card itself is like $9.
Speaker 3No, all she wants is her and her family to eat at a wonderful restaurant. So I Let her pick one and make the reservation. Yeah, fair enough. So we did grain exchange this year and it was $72 a person.
Speaker 1And it was like 40 for the kids It's fucking $35 or $40 and what did they do?
Speaker 3they add the what they added gratuity in for on top for a buffet Served yourself 22%, so get your own goddamn food bill for the four of us to eat Was 272 dollars pretty ridiculous. It's pretty ridiculous considering my kid had three slices of watermelon, yeah, and a her she bar. How long did you stay?
Speaker 1there, yeah, four hours. Yeah, i used to do four hours.
Speaker 3We were there probably two hours or so.
Speaker 1Yeah, I believe you. So under bucks an hour is a great time.
Speaker 3They were great You want to be three hours one thing that was kind of crazy was that no drinks were included, except the mother's bottomless mimosas from the Mamosa fountain.
Speaker 3Okay, and I got one, chris, and, and so you have to prepay for the event. So when you book it you have to pay in full, okay, and then when you're there, you get a bill at the end for your drinks. And so I had a cup of coffee and the kids had a chocolate milk, which you only charged us for one of them, good guy saving a small right, six dollars for Three bucks a piece So when it was all done, our two hundred and seventy two dollar bill.
Speaker 3We got an additional, that's in six dollar bill.
Speaker 2Okay, and I think they do that because.
Speaker 3Some people might not realize that Certuity was included. So if they throw another bill, the You saw it all makes the people a suit. No, it's, it's just your drinks, but it kind of makes you assume that you haven't tipped them yet, so now you're gonna throw them some cash.
Speaker 1Especially if it was a gift like you sent your mom, like you're from you're from a different city. You're like well fuck, i know I can't be there this year, but you and dad are gonna go out to this really nice place in town, bills paid for. All you got to do is cover a cup of coffee, if you get it, you know.
Speaker 3And then she's there and she's like, well, we should probably tip them to me and then, and really the only reason I think that drinks were separate, was because they did have, you know, a full bar, sure sure so random you could, you could range Very variant but it was, it was great. I mean, their food is so fucking good.
Speaker 1Yeah, but did you how?
Speaker 3much do you think?
Speaker 1ordered What you ate dollars. Do you think it would have been a $70 meal?
Speaker 3I don't know, man, i like 40 crab claws. What, what does that count for? Okay, so they had the high-end shit at that dad, dad, shrimp that were almost as big as Jay.
Speaker 1Yeah, i The that's. That's the kind of a thing you want to go to, if you're gonna go, oh, jay.
Speaker 3Jay in the shrimp. We're on a four tiered ice sculpture. It's amazing.
Speaker 1You picked them off like.
Speaker 2So you guys are like way you looked way out of, out of out of sites like you Did I like?
Speaker 3no, no, you came in the dress shoes you came with a sweatpants and my hair.
Speaker 2My hair was done. No, always done the morning, your hair is fucking done.
Speaker 3Cartoon yes, he's a cartoon fucking head, you know, cuz the kids were dressed real nice and we were dressed nice and shit, and When we were in there, you know the place was jam-packed. I mean, it's an event hall, so you know there was probably 250 people eating there at a time and And we were there probably a little longer than most of the people that the money doesn't really mean as much to them, so there were tables flipping over pretty regularly.
Speaker 1So you, you a turn like 200k.
Speaker 2Probably that day, probably you kind of ate and waited till you got hungry again and That's what you do.
Buffet vs. A La Carte Dining
Speaker 1I went to a pretty expensive Mother's Day buffet at the Place of the game room What's it called in Hartford. Do you say gay? Don't even say the mine shaft, the mine shaft. Oh my god. It was like 45 bucks for that one. It was a decent one though. I mean it was a good buffet. I've worked buffets that are 20 bucks in there, just shit, buffets that should be five, ten dollars, like. I feel like the buffet game is better to pay more because of the 100% quality you get.
Speaker 1If you're gonna go buffet, you're going to fucking gorge, yeah. Otherwise just go order what you want for 17 bucks somewhere, right, i mean the buffet. You can only eat so much fucking Hotel bacon before you're like I got my thing with buffets.
Speaker 3Like if I order a plate of food I do my best to make sure I eat it. All You know I don't know what that is.
Speaker 1It's a rich person's game out of buffet.
Speaker 3I really I kind of just take a little bit of everything and I don't really eat that much. I I eat more when I order an actual big-ass meal.
Speaker 1Yeah like I.
Speaker 3Fucking crazy. I mean I had like. Realistically, i'd like 15 crab claws and And five or six big-ass shrimp.
Speaker 2I mean, how much is? how much is one crab claw?
Speaker 1if you went to a restaurant, i don't know, they probably would only sell them Bunch of acts they probably like 14 bucks for no way, Yeah cuz it's not a thing They're doing they don't sell that shit at Buffalo Wild Wing, so you can't even comment on it.
Speaker 3You don't know the cost you don't even know the cost of shit. Anyway, you know what a crab.
Speaker 2I never heard of a crab claws. This okay Compared to snow crab different, different all together.
Speaker 3Like how much different.
Speaker 2Okay, what is it called?
Speaker 1It's a crab like cartoon like a little red crab. That's a little crab.
Speaker 2Is it closer to lobster or crab legs?
Speaker 3It's closer to like a lobster claw not the tail, but the claw. You know, people that order for lobsters.
Speaker 2Eat the claw of the lobster. They give you the fucking claw of the lobster. Isn't that like tiny?
Speaker 3I don't. I don't know what you're trying to compare it to.
Speaker 2I'm trying to fucking figure out what the fuck is going on That's probably the size of your vape.
Speaker 1And it is probably a food the size of a chicken nugget. He's got another one The amount of food, So where's he? That's a big one actually, Oh would you?
Speaker 2would you hunt that Jay? No, i don't, I only sell, i only sell my water.
Speaker 3It's too green. I only fish out Green fish.
Speaker 2I don't think I can eat a colorful fish Or fish that can kill you, because that bass definitely can't kill you.
Speaker 1I don't know man.
Speaker 2It's got enough. I never had a crab claw. Fine, maybe I would love it. Do you use butter? Probably would No. Straight up What.
Speaker 1Yeah, It's not a big fan. No, it's like it's like they cooked but served on ice, that song is wrong. Don't you eat cold shrimp? I don't The shrimp cocktail sauce.
Speaker 2I'm not a shrimp fan. I don't know. I don't know what Jay.
Speaker 1You're deep sea. You are the worst deep sea fisherman I know. I don't eat a lot of fish. I can't believe I've been taking all of my deep sea fishing. Why would you say that I've never spent deep?
Speaker 2sea fishing.
Speaker 3You are my life. He's only been. I go shore fishing, i guess.
Speaker 2I've been beach fishing. I've just realized now my deep sea fishing, knowledge is wiped clean.
Speaker 1I need a new deep sea fishing. What made you think I fished deep sea? You're talking about things that kill you in adventure and things. Yeah, i didn't realize. you were just sitting on the shore and dropping a piece of meat in the water and hoping something bites.
Speaker 3He's not dropping it, he's kayaking it Yeah.
Speaker 1And I got like six poles out because I'm going some day down with you. It's fucking fabulous Find a new island, because Santa Bell doesn't exist anymore.
Speaker 2It's amazing because all of a sudden, out of nowhere, one of your poles when you're six poles would just go like this And just fucking take off And you just hear that There's nothing better than that There isn't. I mean, you can't do that in a fucking lake. Lake is like all your fucking. Your barber went down, or you just caught a bass, i don't know. Man, You need to go fishing. Your wife wants to find out what's the best kind of fishing. I don't know.
Speaker 1Ice fishing with your wife on an Enishanti is the best kind of fishing a man can get. Don't tell you what.
Speaker 3Okay, well, maybe for all the reasons than fishing?
Speaker 2Yeah, exactly, you ever come in a fishing hole, it freezes like no other. It's just like it ends the hole.
Speaker 1The hole is, you feel like, the best thing you can buy?
Speaker 2Tony fills the hole with his jizz. I sometimes go out.
Speaker 3I can't even get my from icing over.
Speaker 1Sometimes I go on over to Tony's total total donation and get a whole bag of Oh my God, it's just bait. He's like that's how I attract the fish, i just right into the hole.
Speaker 3It's hard to get it to stick to the hook, but it jumps along And with that. So anyway, you The phase are kind of awesome, as long as it's a good one. Golden corral can suck my dick. Anything Bartolata does is going to be fucking.
Speaker 1Of course Worth the money. Yeah, they're going to.
Speaker 2How much is? how much is Golden Corral to get into? like 20 bucks Because a?
Speaker 1lot too, bartolata, and it's like 14. The Bartolata buffet is more an advertisement to their restaurants than anything Yeah. Because they're like dude. do you know that there's a thing called a job that you can do, called the crumb catcher, where your job is to just sit there And when you see someone eat bread out of the basket, you go up to the table and you take? their little credit card you take this little credit card, look at thing and you go just right on their lap and you take it off of the table.
Speaker 1What You're a crumb catcher and you just go around the restaurant like a like a busboy would do, except for your job is in to clean up the table for the dishes when they leave. It's to keep the table clean while they're eating customer customer.
Speaker 3Have you ever had that happen when you sit in there in a crumb catcher Lots of times? Fuck yeah, not much for me. He tried handing them a plate. They go, that's above my pay grade.
Speaker 2Is this a rich?
Speaker 1person thing. Yeah, these nice restaurants, you get a gift card, get yourself a gift card Send your wife. So these rich people can't fucking handle crumbs.
Speaker 3I'm not spending money on drugs. I'm not buying imaginary baseball cards on the internet.
Speaker 2I can tell by the size of your titties. You're going out to eat. I can go out to a good restaurant.
Speaker 3Yeah, buying imaginary football cards or whatever the fuck you do.
Speaker 1I do that a lot. Yeah, the the nice dining we just me and Katie both don't really enjoy it too much.
Speaker 3Yeah, it's my thing.
Speaker 1But it is. When we do it, it's very, it's nice. It's nice to just go out One of those nights where you're like I don't even want to see it, you just take my fucking card and swipe it. I'll see you in the morning. I don't care. It's going to be like $300.
Speaker 3The night before we went to go see a pretty famous comedian named Gabriel and Glacias And we went out with some, with some other people, and they're like, oh, you guys pick where you want to eat for dinner. So we're like, all right, so we pick, very like middle of the road place.
Speaker 2What's that?
Speaker 3I forget where it was. This was like three weeks ago. We picked it and they came back with Apple. He doesn't really like that And we're like all right, so we picked out a new place and it's like he's not really into that And I'm like, well, like, if you guys are the ones with the stipulations, don't ask us to pick What's it cost, do you?
Speaker 1think.
Speaker 3No, no, no, not at all So flavor. She's like well, he's really more like just like basic meat and potatoes.
Speaker 1He doesn't want to go to a bar and get fried chicken wings.
Speaker 3No, like we've been to like decent restaurants with them before and you know she's like, well, we just kind of eat at the same places every time, because he's really picky about like what his food options are. We're like all right, Like he really just likes, you know, meat and potatoes. So we're like all right, perfect, We got me, So we went to we went to Texas D Brazil. Have either of you guys been there?
Speaker 1Is that you put a little green button on one If you want to keep eating, a red button if you don't yeah. I've not been there. I should, but I have.
Speaker 3It's the fucking best.
Speaker 1It's unlimited meat What They serve it out swords.
Speaker 3It's a Brazilian steakhouse.
Speaker 2So you just described it as I don't want to see.
Speaker 1you just put a button, you just put it when you're sitting there, you just be like you put it up If you want them to come by with meat and ask you if you want some, and then you put it down if you don't want any right now, and then if you're hungry again, you put it up, and then a server will just come with some meat and be like do you want the brisket, do you want the steak, do you want to this? And they use a sword, right, and they carve it right off the sword or slap it right off down off the sword for it. All you can eat meat. Sounds strange.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 1It's Brazilian. What is it? It's a steakhouse And not done. I got to do it. It's $150 a person, a box of pop.
Speaker 3It's like yeah, it's like 60 bucks or something A person.
Speaker 2Yeah, no, i know.
Speaker 3And uh no. So we were going there. The show starts at 10 or whatever, and we're like all right, we'll get there at like 730. Show by. You know, tanner, whatever you know, we had to be there at like nine because the comedy clubs first come, first serve seating. So we didn't want to be late. So we're like all right, we're going to get there at nine. We'll go there at like seven 30. If our reservations at seven 30, they'll have us in there at eight, that'll give us, you know, 45 minutes to an hour to eat. The girls like now it's not enough time They want more.
Speaker 3He's going to want more time. He's going to want to be there long enough where he can get hungry again. All right, cool, what time you want to go there? Six o'clock, jesus, for a 10 pm show, all right. So we called, got the reservation at six 30 is the best we could do.
Speaker 2They don't have a time for you, like like you can't stay here longer than this much time, so that's crazy.
Speaker 3We go there and and you know they they come around with these swords and they're like you want this sirloin? hell yeah, i want this sirloin. You want this skirt steak? you, they had legs of lamb put in all kinds of different chicken. They're just coming around there, just fucking pop and shit on your plate Like I had a graveyard of shit at my place.
Speaker 2So what else do they give you besides me? They have to give you something.
Speaker 3Well there's, there's a wild ass like salad bar soups, fucking side dishes.
Speaker 2So then you go up this, you go up to the bar, salad bar, whatever it is, and you get like bread and yeah, what, what salmon salads like and then you come back and wait for them to cut off a fucking animal. Yeah, cut it right off the store.
Speaker 3And swords are actually the rotisserie that they go on, this rotisserie So they'll bring out like a big ass hunk with like sirloins and it's like fucking two feet long. It's just all sirloins running down and it'll have this like beautiful fucking grilled char on it and they'll have a knife to give you these little like tongue pinchers and they start cutting it and you got to hold on to it with your little pincher and then they finish cutting it down, you put it on your plate and then it goes to being like fucking uncooked rare after they you don't cut that rotisserie skin off, care and then they take it and they put it right back on the spit. Fucking char that up some more. Grab a new stick. Fucking guy comes back around whole leg of lamb. He's like, oh, you want some lamb, it's a fucking.
