We talk about the best frozen pizza.

1
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:13,000
Welcome back to another episode
of A record, My Father.

2
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:15,880
Today we're going to be talking
about pizza.

3
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:18,480
I mean, I just ate this great
frozen pizza.

4
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:20,360
Katie's frozen pizza from
Target.

5
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:23,000
Fantastic.
I could not have eaten.

6
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,040
I think it's the best, I'm not
even kidding, the best frozen

7
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:29,280
pizza I've ever had.
It's hand tossed and then vac

8
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:31,080
sealed.
Like frozen vac sealed kinda.

9
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,800
And then it sounds like better
than catch.

10
00:00:34,480 --> 00:00:36,920
I I caught a vac seal.
Well, I caught it with my mouth,

11
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:38,360
'cause it was so delicious, you
know?

12
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:42,920
Yes, but it was fantastic.
I was, let's say 10 out of 1010

13
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,440
out of 10 on the Zack Peach's.
Scale some vac seal on your

14
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:45,720
tongue.
I'm.

15
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,280
Trying to get a sponsorship here
and you're really fucking this

16
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,320
up, so all right.
OK, go back.

17
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:53,080
You're right.
Well, the thing I'm thinking

18
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,200
about is it's like when, when,
when, when we talk about pizza,

19
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,840
let's let's talk about like
quantities.

20
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,240
How how big of a deal is pizza
in America?

21
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:09,360
3 billion pizzas annually.
That means and, and when you

22
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,880
add, when you add frozen, that's
fresh, you add another, you add

23
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:17,680
frozen and it's over a four,
it's over 4 billion pizzas, 350

24
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:23,000
slices per second, 46 slices per
person per year.

25
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:28,000
It's crazy.
It's it's the daily consumption

26
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:34,960
of Americans of pizza is 100
acres of pizza and 46 slices

27
00:01:34,960 --> 00:01:39,520
amounts to about 23 lbs.
What do you think the the number

28
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,440
one topping is?
Pepperoni or cheese or just.

29
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:44,840
Cheese.
No pepperoni.

30
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:46,600
Other than cheese, we're talking
about.

31
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,640
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
When you talk about a typical

32
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:52,680
pizza, typical pizza is what is
it?

33
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:57,120
Let's see.
Typical pizza is a Margherita

34
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,720
pizza.
Which is Yeah.

35
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:01,640
And where was it?
Where was it?

36
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,200
First date I just plain cheese
really.

37
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,240
Yeah, there's there's arguments.
Remember when we went to Sicily

38
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,240
and they were saying where they
made pizza and it wasn't here

39
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,199
and it wasn't there and how this
and all that?

40
00:02:10,199 --> 00:02:12,280
Oh, and then they made the worst
pizza I've ever eaten in my

41
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:13,440
entire life.
Yeah, I remember.

42
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,400
That that that was Sicily.
That was worse than the corn

43
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:20,320
pizza in Argentina.
That was worse than that.

44
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,160
They left it out.
They didn't strain the

45
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:26,360
mozzarella balls, and it was
mozzarella water all over the

46
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,160
top of the pizza.
And then they served it to us

47
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,560
and it felt like the pizza was
made with hatred.

48
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,800
It felt like I was.
Eating.

49
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,760
Somebody's hatred, that's what
it felt like.

50
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,280
Well, you are an American, you
know.

51
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:40,520
You got to expect that, you
know.

52
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,520
But it was even at a hotel
restaurant.

53
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,720
So if you're working at a hotel,
you know that you're going to be

54
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:50,160
serving filthy Americans.
So it's like I don't understand.

55
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,360
I think it's dirty, rotten,
filthy well it.

56
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,920
Also took like 2 hours to get
the pizza.

57
00:02:54,920 --> 00:02:57,120
Oh, I remember that.
And it was like, I think they

58
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,680
went down to the corner and
bought it and then everybody got

59
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,240
to stomp on it and they gave it
to you.

60
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,360
Yeah, exactly.
They hated us.

61
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,160
We should actually give a shout
out to that hotel 'cause it was

62
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,320
a.
Hotel Alicito's.

63
00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:11,640
Yep.
What was it called?

64
00:03:11,640 --> 00:03:15,560
It was called, Oh, I did what it
was called too, the the Athena

65
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,560
in the Valley of the Gods.
In Oh, I remember that.

66
00:03:19,640 --> 00:03:21,760
Yeah.
That was not the pizza.

67
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,920
That was the place.
The place, the food.

68
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:28,360
At hotel restaurant.
The the food just sucked.

69
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,640
That was bad.
It it was the worst.

70
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,600
The food there was bad, which
is, you know, this is a strange

71
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:35,920
thing.
When we went to Sicily and we

72
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,880
were talking about, oh, your
food's going to be your food

73
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,080
must be so bread.
It's like, no, it sucked the

74
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:41,600
ass.
It was worse than bad.

75
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:46,280
It was worse than bad.
Yeah, that Athena Hotel was the

76
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,520
only thing good.
There was the canned Coke, and

77
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:50,240
it was.
Warm.

78
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,920
Yeah, somebody's.
Gone and I was like, OK, the

79
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,320
water was adequate, but the
canned coke, I mean, the views

80
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,200
were when you look, think about
where we were it everywhere

81
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,480
around there were in.
Is that the valley of the gods?

82
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:05,840
Yep.
Or the mountains of the gods?

83
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,280
The valley of the gods.
It was just, I mean, it's

84
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,000
beautiful, but the food was just
rotten.

85
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,440
I've never had worse food than
in SIS.

86
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,160
Yeah, like.
Finding, you know, that cost a

87
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,000
lot.
You know, it's like, you know,

88
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,400
you know, make bad.
Well, you know, and remember,

89
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,200
they were arguing that Sicily
made the first pizza, but Naples

90
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,480
is actually credited making the
first pizza.

91
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:28,840
Naples.
They're the first good.

92
00:04:28,840 --> 00:04:30,640
Pizza, I'll tell you that.
I would hope so.

93
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,280
They passed off the Yeah, they
didn't.

94
00:04:32,280 --> 00:04:36,680
They certainly did not give the
what is it the recipe to the

95
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,920
people in Sicily, Because the
people in Sicily didn't follow

96
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:41,360
follow it.
I mean it's interesting when you

97
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:46,360
look that they say it originated
evolving from earlier

98
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,880
flatbreads, top of such items as
garlic, cheese, oil, tomatoes.

99
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,880
Tomatoes were added after they
were introduced from the

100
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,440
Americas.
Interesting.

101
00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:01,640
Making pizza in its modern form
possible only post 16th century.

102
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,920
So it'd be like 15 eighties post
post 15-8 hundreds.

103
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,320
So 1600s.
Many distinct types of pizza,

104
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:15,040
Pizza and Napolitania.
Soft elastic elastic dough with

105
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:19,840
thick fluffy crust.
Pizza A lapel Roman origin with

106
00:05:19,840 --> 00:05:23,760
a highly hydrated dough served
by slice on a wooden paddle.

107
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:28,640
Paddle Pizza Tundra Romana Thin
crispy cracker like crust baked

108
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:33,600
in Roman pizzerias.
Pizza El Taglio baked and large

109
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,480
rectangular pans.
I love those pizza Frida which

110
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:41,680
is Frida pizza dough.
Pizza head Delino, which is pan

111
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:47,760
pizza popular in Torino pizza
Cecilia thick sponge like crust

112
00:05:47,840 --> 00:05:51,560
with traditional topics like
talk, tomato, anchovies, onions,

113
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:55,280
cheese and bread crumbs and
cooked shitty traditional

114
00:05:55,280 --> 00:06:01,440
international variants.
Well with this that's that's

115
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:02,640
pretty.
I mean you think about it.

116
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,160
Come on you.
I mean we were there.

117
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:05,760
We didn't and.
We were not.

118
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,120
It was bad.
We even went to a pizza

119
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,920
restaurant and they were like,
yeah, we don't cut the pizza.

120
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:12,840
That's not what we do here.
I'm like, why?

121
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,640
Why would you ever make the
consumer cut the pizza?

122
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,200
That makes no sense.
And it's like, I understand if

123
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,720
it's a calzone or something, OK,
that makes sense, but you give

124
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,360
me a dull knife every time.
Every single time it was a dull

125
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,160
knife.
And I feel like they do that

126
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,040
just to laugh at you 'cause it's
just, Oh my God, hands down,

127
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:31,960
worst food I've ever eaten.
Sicily, my God.

128
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:33,040
And.
We have to.

129
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,800
I've been to New Mexico and I've
been to Albuquerque, right?

130
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,320
Yeah, no, no, Albuquerque had.
Really good food.

131
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,560
I'm surprised.
The Cowgirl Cafe, which has the

132
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:46,040
best chili relinos as long as
you can walk through the part

133
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,520
and see all the as.
Long as you can slam before you

134
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,480
get there. 10 AM the 10 AM
drunk.

135
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,080
So I remember taking you there
when we went to the balloon

136
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,920
festival with your mother and we
lost you in the balloon

137
00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,920
festival, but you, but you were
five, you found us.

138
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:04,960
And anyway, we went to, I saw it
in photos of all things, the

139
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,800
Cowgirl Cafe.
And we went there at like 10/30,

140
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,160
11:00 in the morning and it's
open and there's already like 6

141
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:16,240
guys staying at sitting at the
bar drinking quiet, no music,

142
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,120
just it, it was the end of the
earth.

143
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:25,640
We're all old drunks go to die.
And we went there and they're

144
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,120
like, ah, we have a playground.
Outback went Outback and it was

145
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,560
like, you know, beer bottles in
the back and it was sand and it

146
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,240
was a picnic table.
It was, it was a dump and we

147
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,920
asked to be served out there in
the dump because we were

148
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,640
frightened of the drunks, you
know, 'cause the drunk's OK.

149
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,360
But when they're all quiet, then
you just get worried like, you

150
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:44,840
know, are they planning against
us?

151
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,080
Are they scheming?
What are they scheming for?

152
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,000
And we had you out in the back
and we and I had my chili

153
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,400
Rolanos and they were really,
really, really good.

154
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,240
They were, you know, folders
said they're the best ever.

155
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,960
And I would say I have to say I
have not had better since then.

156
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:04,040
Now that was the thing that was
shocked me about Albuquerque,

157
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,720
even though it was just a
complete and absolute shit hole

158
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:12,200
everywhere I look except for
the, you know, I mean, it was

159
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:16,360
just like wow, crazy.
That is crazy.

160
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,760
What is the the best?
You know what I time and time

161
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:23,440
again find myself doing is I
love black olives on pizza and

162
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,440
people fight me to the end of
the earth on this.

163
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,400
They call me Oh you old man, you
old man.

164
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,440
Flavor, flavor, old man.
Die.

165
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,600
That's what I always say when I
want black olives on pizza.

166
00:08:33,919 --> 00:08:37,320
They always say, they always
tell me that I should kill

167
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,960
myself.
And I say, but I love black

168
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,919
olives on pizza.
And, and you know what I had?

169
00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:44,280
It's a texture thing.
It's not even a flavor thing.

170
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:49,360
It's a texture thing.
Yeah, I had, I think it was at

171
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,520
your football party and I'd
never had this before.

172
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,080
The guy had ordered from
Domino's.

173
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,040
He ordered green pepper, onion
and black olive.

174
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,200
This is veggie, right?
And no, because there's all

175
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,720
sorts of other veggies.
I I would say, yes, it's just

176
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,040
veggie.
But when you got it and I was

177
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,440
just like, that is the weirdest
combination I thought.

178
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,120
But when you try it, you're
like, Oh my God, this is great.

179
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,120
I was shocked by the combination
of taste.

180
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,000
It's just, whoa, this is really,
really good.

181
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,080
You know, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a
garbage man.

182
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,440
I I want, I want everything in a
hamster on my pizza.

183
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:29,640
I don't I'm a I like, I like
pepperoni, I like black olive, I

184
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,560
like onion.
I like a lot of onion on top.

185
00:09:31,560 --> 00:09:33,800
It gets burnt like the pepperoni
get burnt.

186
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,440
I like more cheese than.
Well done is an underrated

187
00:09:37,560 --> 00:09:39,680
cooking style.
You people don't know that you

188
00:09:39,680 --> 00:09:40,960
can order.
It almost burnt.

189
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,160
Well done.
Is amazing 'cause you want the.

190
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,280
Top I love burning across the
top it's just like.

191
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,920
That's the thing why I don't
like too many toppings is 'cause

192
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,560
it makes the undercarriage all
week and then it falls through

193
00:09:51,560 --> 00:09:55,440
sometimes and you gotta cook the
hell out of the bottom in order.

194
00:09:55,440 --> 00:10:00,360
Right, The last one I did, I
rolled it out, put, put the

195
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,680
actual carpet, you know,
whatever.

196
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:04,760
Not carpet.
What the hell do you call it?

197
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,680
Pizza dough in the pan, Put the
pan in the oven, cooked it for 7

198
00:10:08,680 --> 00:10:12,760
minutes, pulled it out, then put
the toppings all in, put the

199
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:18,120
sauce, cheese.
And I did, I did mozzarella

200
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,160
disks this time is really wow,
shockingly good.

201
00:10:22,560 --> 00:10:25,800
And then threw it and cooked it
for 1520 minutes.

202
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,320
I had really thin pepperoni.
So the problem with thin

203
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,960
pepperoni is it burns and it
burns before everything else

204
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,880
gets really cooked.
So you end up getting, yet you

205
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,200
have to, you have to pick and
choose and it's all, it's all

206
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,960
like Tess, you know, when you
make pizza, I make pizza more

207
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:49,280
often than not now I would
rather get a little thing of

208
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,400
dough.
Whatever do I get from the

209
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,120
store?
Usually I cut 1/3 of it off

210
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,880
because it's too much like
'cause I want a thinner crust

211
00:10:56,680 --> 00:11:02,440
and then take what I cut off and
I make that into a cinnamon bun,

212
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:07,080
You know, roll in butter,
cinnamon sugar, brown sugar,

213
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,520
raisins, walnuts, whatever the
hell you got laying around the

214
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,080
kitchen.
You know, rabbits, rabbit

215
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:17,360
brains, frog tongues, anything
that that kind of goes in well,

216
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,080
roll that up.
Cook that next to the pizza.

217
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:25,960
And when you cook in the pizza,
like I always use mushrooms.

218
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,120
I buy the sauce.
I'm I'm I've made sauce.

219
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,320
I bought sauce and made sauce.
I bought sauce.

220
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,520
I think some of the best sauce
ever had was has to be Manny

221
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,400
Moon's rest.
First restaurant really worked

222
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:42,840
at We made sauce down there with
Blue Sky.

223
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,200
What the hell with the stewed
tomatoes.

224
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:51,320
There was Hunts and then there
was a mixture, a mixture of

225
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:57,560
oregano, onion, salt, garlic,
salt, something else.

226
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:01,280
You dump a little oil in there.
You you roll that in, you make

227
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,720
it.
You make, you know, 510 gallons

228
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,000
of pizza sauce.
Oh my gosh, it was so good.

229
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,040
When you make the sauce you're
heating it up to, you're letting

230
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:10,480
it simmer, right?
We didn't heat it.

231
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,080
We did not.
No, you didn't eat it.

232
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,520
Interesting.
OK, we had.

233
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,600
Moon sauce and we cooked moon
sauce, which is I, I mean I

234
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:22,240
imagine you can, some people
would cook and make pizza sauce,

235
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,360
but I think like spaghetti sauce
should cook.

236
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:28,000
Pizza sauce gets cooked when you
put it in the oven to make the

237
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,840
pizza.
Fair, fair enough.

238
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,040
You know, and that's why, I
mean, I guess you could make it

239
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:33,360
cooked.
Heat it up well then you have a

240
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,440
more congealed sauce too when
you're on the pizza, right?

241
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,160
It's not as runny as what I
would imagine.

242
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:39,720
You lose some of the water if
you heat it up.

243
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:40,360
That's true.
Yeah.

244
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,880
Good morning 'cause I so I guess
it depends upon what kind of

245
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,080
tomatoes you use to make.
The sauce, exactly.

246
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,800
And usually I just buy some off
the I buy whatever the smallest

247
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:54,280
jar of pizza sauce I can find.
That's not a name brand.

248
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:58,960
Cause I've tried, I've tried
like every Raul's, Pepe's,

249
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:06,240
what's another?
There's Prego, there's Progresa.

250
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,200
It was like every sauce you can
imagine.

251
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,280
And I'm always looking for a new
yeah, if I yeah, a new Mr.

252
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:13,800
Tony's or whatever the case may
be.

253
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:15,360
We're always trying something
new.

254
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:19,440
And then of course, you need
Parmesan and mozzarella.

255
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,200
When I was making cheese, when
I, when I worked at the

256
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:28,040
restaurant, we would take a
mozzarella and we would do 2

257
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,040
sticks of mozzarella for one
stick of provolone.

258
00:13:30,560 --> 00:13:33,160
So it was like a 2.
It's a 2. 30 No Parmesan.

259
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,560
No, none.
Not just use Parmesan.

260
00:13:35,560 --> 00:13:39,200
You put that on afterward.
But when I make it here, I

261
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,280
actually grade Parmesan and put
that.

262
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:45,480
Usually that's layer.
It's like layer one or two.

263
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,680
I, you know, it depends.
Sauce usually goes first.

264
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,000
I'm thinking now this is
something I'm thinking about is

265
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,960
that in the next piece I make,
I'm going to put all the items

266
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:55,480
in the bottom and then put sauce
over top.

267
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:59,000
Is that weird?
That well, that's what they

268
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:03,040
Vache does in DC is they do the
cheese underneath and then they

269
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,240
do the sauce on top, which is
crazy.

270
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,400
And is it different?
I'll tell you that much.

271
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:09,880
The layering is completely
different.

272
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,720
Vache was always great.
I mean, whatever cheese they use

273
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,360
at Vache is fantastic.
So that was really, really good.

274
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,600
Here's the question I'd ask you.
What about the items?

275
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:24,600
Because you can't, you can't
cook pepperoni that's, you know,

276
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,120
on the bottom.
It's not going to.

277
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:28,800
It's not.
I think they only did cheese.

278
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,560
Now that you think about it.
I never saw anything with that

279
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,160
was other than cheese that was
at Vache.

280
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,480
Maybe they did do things.
With toppings, but it was on

281
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,400
top.
I don't think they would like

282
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:40,800
that you.
Can try.

283
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,200
You can try it.
I don't know what would happen

284
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,840
'cause you'd think that it would
be weird if it had toppings on

285
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:47,000
it.
It would have to be just cheese,

286
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,040
I would imagine.
Yeah, but that's just me.

287
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:50,480
I don't know.
I wonder if you sauteed the

288
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,840
onions separately and then put
them on at the end, how that

289
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:54,840
would be.
There's just like there's a

290
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:56,080
million different things you can
do.

291
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,360
And it's always kind of fun
'cause you, you go into your,

292
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,920
your, you know, for all the rich
people that have a pantry.

293
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,560
Then you go mushrooms, Black
Hallows, What's the one?

294
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,560
Artichokes.
I got tomatoes.

295
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,520
I got the dried tomatoes.
Artichoke pizza grottos was

296
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:13,840
fantastic.
I remember that.

297
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,920
Oh my gosh, I miss grottos.
I do.

298
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:19,840
I'm not going to lie.
I really do.

299
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,600
Some days I wake up and I say,
man, I miss it.

300
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,080
It's kind of like an adult Chuck
E Cheese pizza if you think

301
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:25,920
about.
It it is it's.

302
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,640
Really phenomenal because it's
got the swirl on it and no, it's

303
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,680
it's really good pizza.
I thought it was better than

304
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:32,960
Louie's in my opinion.
That's.

305
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,320
Just it was only it's only good
for the 1st 30 minutes.

306
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,440
Oh yeah, yeah.
You got to eat it at the

307
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,400
restaurant or outside of the
restaurant.

308
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,760
Yeah, if you, if you take it
home, I mean, it's no good

309
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,880
within an hour or so and you
can't heat it up.

310
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,760
It doesn't work like that.
I would go back just to Delaware

311
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:50,680
to get that pizza.
That's what I would do.

312
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,400
I would do that.
Well, next time you come, we'll

313
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:53,840
go to, we'll go to the beach,
we'll go.

314
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:57,160
I need to go back too.
We'll go to Columbia, MD, but

315
00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:01,240
yeah, no, the green pepper
onion, black olive pizza sounds

316
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:02,920
great.
I think that's phenomenal.

317
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,440
You know what another one was
chicken jalapeno.

318
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,160
Chicken jalapeno apparently is
very, very good.

319
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:13,880
I also think in my older age
now, Hawaiian, Hawaiian pizza.

320
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,720
I love Hawaiian pizza.
I had a slice the other day.

321
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,800
It's phenomenal.
You make that face, but at the

322
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,000
same time, I think it's it's
pretty good.

323
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:23,600
You know I.
Think.

324
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:27,080
Well, you know, I used to think
that you were really, really

325
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,240
smart and you went to really,
really good school, but until

326
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,920
you said you eat Hawaiian pizza,
that really hasn't tried it.

327
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:37,640
I mean, I think, I think we're
talking about academically that

328
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,840
that removes probably about 25
of your IQ points right there.

329
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,960
Melt into your youthful
innocence, you know, melt into

330
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,840
it.
Reside reside in that pallet.

331
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,880
Before you lower your people
before you drink.

332
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,960
A cup of coffee.
The fact that I just made-up 86%

333
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,240
of the time.
You know that 99% of all facts

334
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,800
are made-up, Do you know that?
No, that's only 87%.

335
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,560
I was only 87.
Percent, yeah, but and by the

336
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,560
way.
What, what, What white?

337
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,040
Pizza.
White pizza?

338
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:08,119
Oh yeah.
What do you think about white

339
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,160
pizza?
Fuck no tomato sauce.

340
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,880
Tomato sauce is the reason that
you tomato sauce on bread.

341
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,599
That's the point that the the
cheese was the extra

342
00:17:18,599 --> 00:17:21,160
afterthought tomato sauce, and I
realized it didn't come along

343
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,119
until the 16th century or after
the 16th.

344
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,720
Century.
But it's like no way, no way, no

345
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:34,520
without, without that garlic,
oregano, onion, salt, spicy

346
00:17:35,120 --> 00:17:39,480
pizza sauce flavor.
No, it's just not.

347
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,440
It's just a freaking sandwich,
you know?

348
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,360
It's a sandwich.
It's a hot sandwich.

349
00:17:43,360 --> 00:17:45,920
It's Panini.
It's a sandwich with cheese on

350
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:47,720
it, You know, is it just a good
one?

351
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,720
I'm having a veggie sandwich
over here with no pizza sauce.

352
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,000
OK, put pizza sauce on it and
make it a pizza.

353
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,120
I don't know.
I've heard different arguments.

354
00:17:55,120 --> 00:17:56,920
I've heard that it's a vessel
for the cheese.

355
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:58,440
I've heard it's a vessel for the
sauce.

356
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:00,840
I would love to hear what other
people have to say.

357
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,080
I'm.
A sauce guy I I, I must say I

358
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:09,720
am, I'm a sauce guy and I'm a
I'm, I'm, I'm working on my, my,

359
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,400
my thing with toppies because
usually I'm a garbage plate.

360
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,680
I want everything.
My brother used to make these

361
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:19,040
when he would go, it was funny.
It he'd go back to he'd come

362
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,080
home.
You you get off work at many

363
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,040
Moons Pizza Ron, you make a
large pizza and then we'd, and

364
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:28,720
then we'd go to the would go to
school, back to school and, and

365
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:33,560
his pizzas were 3 1/2 inches or
4 inches thick and he would do

366
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:39,680
like pepperoni, sausage, bacon,
onion, and each layer was

367
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,840
literally a layer.
Was it cooked?

368
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:43,360
Was it not?
Oh yeah, yeah, a white cooked.

369
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,920
Nightmare.
No, no, no, no.

370
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:50,440
It was crazy because you would
eat one piece of pizza and you'd

371
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,200
be like trying to get through it
and be full.

372
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,200
It would feed 14 you know you
were ever.

373
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,160
Pizza like that before?
There's 12 slices.

374
00:18:58,160 --> 00:18:59,600
You eat one slice and you're
like, I'm done.

375
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:03,120
And not, not thick crust, thick
toppings.

376
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,560
Because if you have a thick
crust, then, I mean, if you

377
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,600
think about it, if you eat
Chicago deep dish pizza, which I

378
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,880
love, I've had Giordano's, I've
had all the different pizzas.

379
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,200
You go there.
I love that pizza.

380
00:19:13,360 --> 00:19:15,160
Your mother and I went to a
place there when she was getting

381
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,760
her knee done.
She got it replaced with her

382
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,360
knee.
Yeah, it was her knee, left

383
00:19:19,360 --> 00:19:21,640
knee.
Why does things on the left

384
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:23,880
always break first?
Anyway, that's another story and

385
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,360
another issue and we'll deal
with that at some other time.

386
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:31,680
But we went to Chicago 5 or 6
times for the doctor to see the

387
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,320
doctor to look at it.
And each time we went there,

388
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,840
she'd say where you want to go.
And I'd be like pizza, pizza,

389
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:38,960
pizza, pizza.
Or in Chicago, pizza or hot

390
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,160
dogs.
Now I hate hot dogs.

391
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:45,120
OK, pizza it is.
And we would eat deep dish

392
00:19:45,120 --> 00:19:47,520
pizza.
And we had a gym gave us a

393
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,840
place.
It was just wow, amazing.

394
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:52,640
Well, he.
Lived there right for like 4

395
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:53,800
years.
Lived there for, yeah, a couple

396
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,000
of years.
Four or five years.

397
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:56,960
Yeah.
And he's like, no, no, I go to

398
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,480
so and so's on the East Side and
it was like a baseball bar and

399
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,320
all that.
It's really, really good pizza

400
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,840
cold there.
Yeah.

401
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,280
We were there during the summer
though, so it was kind of is

402
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,240
neat.
But, you know, she gets her her

403
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,200
leg cut open and they stick a
little piece of porcelain in her

404
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:14,080
kneecap.
And then they sew it all back up

405
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,600
and they give her a handful of
drugs and they put her in a

406
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:18,640
wheelchair and they hand her to
me and say, hey, have a good

407
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,000
time.
And I took her out on the street

408
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,400
and tried to sell her.
Couldn't get any money.

409
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,320
So took her back to the hotel
and said OK.

410
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,560
But you didn't.
Did you fly back?

411
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:27,560
You didn't fly back, did.
You.

412
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:28,680
We did.
We flew there.

413
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,040
You're not.
Supposed to do that, right?

414
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,600
I don't know.
I mean, they seemed OK with it

415
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,240
as long as you know, it's pretty
much the check clearing is all

416
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,640
that really mattered.
Well, I thought if you get on a

417
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:45,440
plane your knee would explode or
something, you know, no.

418
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,080
I think that the hardest thing
is, is you're, you're you're you

419
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,600
have to go through an airport.
Yeah, You've literally just had

420
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:56,760
your leg completely opened up a
piece of it taken because they

421
00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:02,840
take the old kneecap and they
put the new one in and it's not

422
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,000
it's you know, so that and and
you know, you're, you're and

423
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:07,720
they're trying to bend your knee
from day one.

424
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,400
So she's screaming from day one
and you're you're pretty much

425
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,240
drugged out and that your
husband, who is also an addict

426
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,760
is over there going like, you
know, Hun, you don't need all

427
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:22,560
those oxy save from for PP will
take the oxy from you.

428
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,680
Papa's going to pee in the
fridge.

429
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,560
Yeah, in the fridge again.
Well, she had.

430
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,200
I mean, that's the funniest
thing because you see this, you

431
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,360
see it all the time I go in, I
have shoulder surgery, they give

432
00:21:33,360 --> 00:21:36,240
me Oxycontin, they give me a 30
count, right?

433
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,080
Think about that.
Think about giving A and BA30

434
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,000
count.
That's a crazy yeah.

435
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:45,760
It's like, hey, you don't have
to buy heroin for a week, you

436
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,560
know?
But anyway, my wife, they give a

437
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,760
30 count or 60 count of that.
But it wasn't Oxycontin, it was

438
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,360
the what's the fake one?
Oh, codone, codone, those don't

439
00:21:55,360 --> 00:21:56,160
do anything.
I took.

440
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,160
I took.
Four, Oh my God, she took well,

441
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,360
she takes 2 codone and she's
blasted me.

442
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,200
I've taken like 4 when I got my
teeth out.

443
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,960
It doesn't do anything.
Literally doesn't do it.

444
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,080
It's like taking a tic tac.
For me, Well, no.

445
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:09,480
You take it with, you take it
with liquor.

446
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,960
Oh yeah, yeah, that generally.
And then it puts you in the

447
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,880
right form of mind you need, you
need a little booster that the

448
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,360
liquor is the booster shot to
the oxycodone.

449
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:21,240
But when you do Oxycontin, you
should probably be careful with

450
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,960
the liquor because it, it, it,
it, it really amplifies it.

451
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,280
I mean, in a way that's like a
beer, like a Sapporo.

452
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,560
You drink one Sapporo, you take
3 or 4 oxy.

453
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:38,160
Oh, man, your, your knees just
will turn in circles when you

454
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,600
try to stand up.
You better have a chair and a

455
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,720
bucket close because it's
really, really, really, really

456
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,760
difficult.
And this is from a shoulder

457
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:51,520
injury like?
Oh gosh that is children workout

458
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,600
yesterday felt great.
Oh my gosh.

459
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:57,800
I have been since you left.
I've been a total lazy man.

460
00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:59,840
Slovenly.
Yeah, I don't know.

461
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,400
I mean, I, I just got my my
birthday just 66.

462
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,480
I just turned 66.
I one more 6 and and I'm home

463
00:23:06,120 --> 00:23:10,000
and so you know, but outside of
that it's like.

464
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:12,840
It got.
Cold.

465
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:16,560
Got really cold here, dropped to
like 40-30 degrees, you know,

466
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,720
and some people cold it.
Maybe it's not cold for the

467
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,320
North Pole, but it's cold for a
year.

468
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,240
You know, that's not cold and
that's me coming from

469
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,960
California, so it.
It was, it was 30° this morning

470
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:28,760
when I took the dogs out and
walked them.

471
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:30,560
Oh God.
And I didn't have any.

472
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,320
Pizza either, I don't miss that
because I would get sick.

473
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,480
I think every year I I remember
it was pretty much every year

474
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,160
I've been a well.
You're a chain smoker too.

475
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,000
You know you can't.
If you smoke, you're going to

476
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:41,800
get sick in the winter time.
Everybody does.

477
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,080
It's just a natural thing.
You know, if you have a dusty,

478
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,920
a, a messy environment, you
know, the summer comes in, the

479
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,080
dust comes, you're going to get,
you're going to get sick.

480
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,720
That's just the way it is.
You know, your, your lungs are

481
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:58,480
not built to last past age 30.
And you know, hey, after that,

482
00:23:58,480 --> 00:23:59,560
it's all.
Gravy, right?

483
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:00,440
Oh, exactly.
Because.

484
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,360
That's what we're kind of.
Thinking I've been smoking a

485
00:24:02,360 --> 00:24:04,280
whole lot less.
It's been great.

486
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:06,400
A whole lot.
Me too.

487
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,240
As a matter of fact, the colder
it's gotten, the it's kind of

488
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:11,880
making me think of like we're in
Finland.

489
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,480
We would when I get a cigar, I
go out and I spend like half of

490
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,840
it and I have to sit on the seal
and then it'd be covered with

491
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:22,480
snow and I'd lose it.
But yeah, it's I'm getting now

492
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:28,080
instead of four cigars a day, I
think I do 2, you know, You

493
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:29,800
know, and I'm just like I smoke
a half one.

494
00:24:30,360 --> 00:24:35,960
I sit it out on the on one of
the stone walls and I come out

495
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:37,560
later and I smoke the other
half.

496
00:24:38,360 --> 00:24:41,400
I know smells nasty.
It's just nasty.

497
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:42,600
It's an.
Especially in the winter.

498
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:44,600
Yeah, it's.
Kind of like cigarettes, too.

499
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,240
Cigarettes, you can smell
people, but smoke them, walk in

500
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,720
and it's just like the nastiest,
nastiest.

501
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:51,480
Yeah.
It's gross when someone who

502
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:54,320
smoked for a long time, yeah.
I was at American Film Market

503
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,240
and there was this guy that came
in that just smoked a cigarette,

504
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,280
and it was.
I was like, wow, do I really

505
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,320
smell like that?
That's really what it was.

506
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:01,960
Yeah.
Because he was wearing a wool

507
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,960
suit, too.
And it was.

508
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,200
And I'm like wool suit in LA.
It's kind of crazy, but.

509
00:25:07,120 --> 00:25:11,080
Yeah.
But yeah, he, he just smelled

510
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,560
like it, Yeah.
It's difficult, it's difficult

511
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:17,840
to get it off and also it
overshadows anything about you.

512
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,400
If you smoke before you go in
for an appointment or meeting or

513
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:22,920
anything.
It's just 100%.

514
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,000
That's why people, that's why
everybody vapes.

515
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,280
But I got to tell you, vaping to
me is repulsive.

516
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,040
You know when I sit, 'cause when
I walk behind people that think

517
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,160
that, it doesn't mean I can
smell it.

518
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,000
Yeah.
You know, the droplets are just

519
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:39,600
full of nicotine.
Stop it.

520
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:41,960
It's a.
Higher level of nicotine too,

521
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,000
because it's like 12 milligrams
of nicotine in a cigarette and

522
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,240
then it's 50 milligrams in a
vape.

523
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,560
It's crazy if it's 5%.
Strength.

524
00:25:50,120 --> 00:25:52,240
Remember in high school you
would vape when you get up in

525
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:53,440
the morning.
Jewel.

526
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:54,680
Yeah, the Jewel.
Jewel.

527
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,680
Remember the jewel?
Nicotine salt.

528
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,680
Pillow, when you took the
pillowcase off, had a brown spot

529
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,000
all the way around.
Yeah, I think it was 1890.

530
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,720
I jeweled for a long time.
I think it was three years.

531
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,960
Crazy.
I mean, it was like, holy crap.

532
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:13,360
Then you start to realize that
that shit went in your lungs and

533
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:14,360
fell on your.
Pillow.

534
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,720
No, exactly.
I think my entire, well, what

535
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,880
did I find the most interesting
is my generation was supposed to

536
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:22,080
be the one to end smoking and if
anything.

537
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,120
They started to slow down and
then the jewel came along.

538
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,240
Yeah, the jewel ruined
everything.

539
00:26:27,360 --> 00:26:29,200
Steady.
It was steady.

540
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,240
Everybody was dropping.
Everybody was dropping.

541
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:32,840
It was ending.
It was ending and smoking.

542
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,480
Everybody's getting healthier,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

543
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,080
What's this new thing?
That's really cool that all my

544
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,960
friends do.
Oh, it'll, it'll help me quit

545
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,280
smoking.
I remember seeing this Irish

546
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:49,560
lady and what the hell was it?
It was an Irish bar in New York,

547
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:54,880
My Bali Wiese there eating
dinner yet again.

548
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,000
And a lady's sitting in the
corner and she has her vapor

549
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:58,800
thing and they're like, you
can't vap in here, you got to go

550
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,120
outside.
And she was talking about the

551
00:27:01,120 --> 00:27:04,160
advantages and the amount of
money that it saved her because

552
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,880
she smoked two or three packs a
day.

553
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:11,800
Now she just uses a bunch of
cartridges, you know?

554
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:15,120
Yeah, Well, 4.
Pack was what, like 1599?

555
00:27:15,120 --> 00:27:17,320
And then it went up to like
2599.

556
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,760
Yeah.
And, and one little jewel

557
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,680
cartridge was a pack of
cigarettes.

558
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,160
I remember that's what they kind
of equivalated it to.

559
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,320
I remember there were people
going through two pots a day.

560
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,440
I was like, that's crazy. 2
packs of cigarettes, yeah.

561
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,720
Yeah.
But it's also.

562
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,840
I wonder if it's more
concentrated because it's when

563
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:37,400
you think about it's the same
thing as cigars.

564
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,920
When see there's enough, there's
the same amount of tobacco in a

565
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:42,320
cigar as there is in 7000
cigarettes.

566
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,160
The thing is, is I don't inhale
a cigar.

567
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,160
I don't inhale every breath of a
cigar.

568
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:51,680
Whereas with a vape, every
single bit of what's in that

569
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:55,800
container goes into your lungs.
OK, when you have a cigarette,

570
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:59,640
you can hit, you breathe,
exhale, it's still burning,

571
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:03,040
still burning.
You hit, exhale, still burning,

572
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,400
still burning.
Same thing with cigar, so

573
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:09,160
probably 1/3 of it or more
doesn't get used.

574
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:10,560
I.
Don't know how I feel about a

575
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,320
battery being 2 inches from your
mouth either.

576
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:17,840
A lithium battery like that.
Oh my God, that's, it's weird.

577
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,000
And I think that's why I
eventually quit too 'cause I was

578
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:24,080
getting sick a lot more and I
stopped and then I was like,

579
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,320
wow, now I have to go outside to
smoke a cigarette.

580
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,720
And like now it's like, I don't
want to go outside.

581
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:31,840
I don't want to do that.
Like, I don't want to go outside

582
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,080
unless I'm drinking like now.
Like I don't want to do that.

583
00:28:35,120 --> 00:28:40,520
Yeah, yeah.
Hawaiian pizza, though, is the

584
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,480
future.
Hawaiian pizza is the future.

585
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,960
And you're going to.
Rue the day that you said what

586
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,320
you said because.
What would that be?

587
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:54,680
You said that it was for low IQ
individuals, but it's a complex

588
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,200
flavour profile.
No I just I didn't say it was

589
00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,920
for low IQI said it
automatically lowers your IQ.

590
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:02,960
Oh, OK, OK.
It's different.

591
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:08,120
I don't know.
Thanks for explaining it to me.

592
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:09,480
I don't know.
I just don't think you

593
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:13,760
understood the umami, the flavor
profile of said pizza, the sweet

594
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:15,960
with the hammy.
It's great.

595
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:16,880
It's fantastic.
I know.

596
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,680
I I.
If, if, if you have the right

597
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:24,600
kind of ham and the right kind
of pineapple and it's fresh and

598
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:28,040
the pineapples burnt crisp,
that's good.

599
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,920
That's real good.
Now, what kind of sauce do you

600
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:37,320
have regular?
Pizza sauce, Regular pizza sauce

601
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,160
on the on the Hawaiian, Yeah.
Yeah.

602
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,320
Yeah, you have it on there, but
it low.

603
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,520
I remember I got the, you
remember that?

604
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:48,000
The frozen Hawaiian pizza that
was in there for about a year.

605
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:49,280
Yeah.
Did you eat that?

606
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:50,040
How was that?
I was.

607
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:50,880
Great.
I was fantastic.

608
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,120
I ate for breakfast one day.
Yeah, it was.

609
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:54,520
It was really.
Really hungover.

610
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,840
No, no, I wasn't.
Well, you know what?

611
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,200
That kind of like that that that
messes with your flavors.

612
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,600
Like when you go to Five Guys
and eat A and you eat a burger,

613
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:03,880
it's like it's just not the
same.

614
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:09,400
It doesn't it doesn't it?
It's great, but it's not the

615
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,200
exceptionalness that the burger.
I don't like how wet the bun

616
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,880
gets at Five Guys.
They've been like soaking the

617
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:16,880
bun on me.
It's like they got it and they

618
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,880
dipped it in water and I'm like,
I don't want to eat this like

619
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:21,920
it's and it's $40.
You know what it is?

620
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:25,560
It's that the meat they're using
is you've got more and more fat

621
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:29,360
in it.
So and more and more fat means

622
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,920
that the burgers going to cost
less.

623
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,800
Because the price of burgers.
The price of burgers gone up, so

624
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:39,400
you get a fatter burger.
A fatter burger has more juice,

625
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,800
which supposedly makes taste
better because it's fatter.

626
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:43,920
Because you know how good fat
is.

627
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,440
That's great.
Up into a point, you know you

628
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:50,200
get to a certain point, then
you're like, you know, you can't

629
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:53,080
do any more than that.
The texture of the wet bun is

630
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,120
just something I hate.
I hate doing that.

631
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,640
Just take five more seconds and
just press it on the grill for

632
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,800
like, yeah, like a little.
Everybody argues about pressing

633
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:04,280
on the grill.
Really.

634
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,480
These are already flat smashed
burgers, right?

635
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:09,480
Yeah.
So it shouldn't be a problem,

636
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,280
you know.
Well, with the amount of

637
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,640
condiments, because I get
everything on it and that's why,

638
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:15,520
yeah.
I'm I am too.

639
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:19,280
I'm, I'm the works man.
I I just, I love the condiments.

640
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,840
Hey, fried onions, Yeah.
Mushrooms, yeah.

641
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,960
Well, then the the tin foil, the
aluminum that it's wrapped in

642
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:29,000
hot box is the bun and makes it
weaker, makes exactly the

643
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:30,800
structure of it.
So that's.

644
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,960
That's a really good thing when
you eat a ballpark hot dog at a

645
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:38,840
stadium because the the the
aluminum foil itself makes it.

646
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:43,800
That makes the hot dog better.
Whereas in a hamburger

647
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:47,080
situation, you're sitting there
and you got slop all over your

648
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:48,800
hand.
You're eating like a pig.

649
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,440
Hopefully it's not a first date
because it'll be a last one.

650
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:55,600
Unless, you know, she's used to,
you know, old fat people eating

651
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:59,920
nastily, you know, I mean, when
you eat, you know, when you eat

652
00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:02,400
a Five Guys burger, you really
want to eat it when no one else

653
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,160
is around.
You know, it's sort of like,

654
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:09,080
it's kind of like eating ribs.
Think about ribs.

655
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:11,160
Well, I used to do chicken wing
first date.

656
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,440
That's what I would always do.
We'd go get Buffalo wings.

657
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,800
And so everything.
It's an equal playing field if

658
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:16,680
you think about that.
OK.

659
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,320
Yeah, well that's cool because
then it's sort of like breaks

660
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:20,440
the ice for.
Exactly.

661
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,400
Both of you look silly, you know
what I mean?

662
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,080
And that's OK, because that's
that's that's when you're on

663
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:27,320
equal ground.
It's fair.

664
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:32,160
But if you order ribs and she
orders a salad, my God you

665
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:33,960
fucked that one up.
No, yeah, that's just a

666
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:35,840
nightmare.
But you know what I've learned

667
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:37,720
recently?
Eating.

668
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,200
Oh shit, I got to go.
I got to go.

669
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:44,200
I got to go.
I forgot I have to jumps.

670
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:45,720
I have to be somewhere.
Where do you got to go?

671
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,680
I realized it.
I have some dinner I'm supposed

672
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,720
to go to tonight and I didn't
realize it until just right now.

673
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:52,360
OK.
It's pizza.

674
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:54,600
Go eat your pizza.
All right.

675
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,560
