2:00
you. In
2:33
2008, the Toronto
2:36
Maple Leafs won the Stanley Cup.
2:41
Oh, it happened. In
2:44
the film, The Love Guru.
2:51
Written by and starring Toronto native
2:53
Mike Myers in a Justin Trudeau-esque
2:55
performance as Guru Pitka. The
3:00
much-anticipated follow-up to the Austin Powers
3:02
franchise was a commercial and critical
3:04
disaster. Given
3:07
the decades-long futility of the Toronto
3:09
Maple Leafs franchise, it's perhaps fitting
3:11
that their only Stanley Cup championship
3:13
since 1967 took place
3:15
in a movie that nobody saw or liked. But
3:19
despite the team's real-life struggles, it's
3:21
a testament to the delusional power
3:23
of fandom that the Leafs remain
3:26
in the top five in attendance
3:28
in the National Hockey League. And
3:30
it's a testament to the team's
3:32
imprint on the national psyche that
3:35
the country's biggest fast food chain
3:37
was founded by and named for
3:39
a Hall of Fame
3:41
Leafs defenseman. The
3:43
business-savvy enforcer opened his first donut and coffee
3:45
shop in 1964 in Canada's Hamilton.
3:52
No, not a hip-hop musical about first
3:54
prime minister Sir John MacDonald. But
3:57
a city in southern Ontario. Within
4:00
10 years, the chain had 40 stores. By the
4:02
90s, that number was 500, and today it's over
4:04
5,000. Its sales
4:06
alone account for over 20% of
4:09
the nation's food service industry. ["The
4:11
Star-Spangled Banner"] ["The Star-Spangled
4:14
Banner"] ["The
4:18
Star-Spangled Banner"] ["The Star-Spangled Banner"] ["The
4:23
Star-Spangled Banner"] I report
4:25
you decide. Tragically,
4:28
addiction cut its namesake's life short at the age
4:30
of 44, but his legacy
4:32
still towers, like the CN Tower.
4:38
According to the company, quote, 80%
4:40
of Canadians visited Tim's in Canada at
4:42
least once a month, end quote. If
4:46
you were born the year the maple leafs
4:48
last appeared in the Stanley Cup finals, you
4:50
celebrated your 57th birthday this year.
4:54
Since then, teams from the US state of
4:56
Florida, where hockey ranks sixth
4:59
in sports popularity after
5:01
the NFL, college football, Major
5:04
League Baseball, the NBA, and
5:06
NASCAR have made
5:08
the Stanley Cup finals eight times. It's
5:11
possible, even probable, that many young leafs fans
5:14
will go from the cradle to the grave without their
5:17
beloved team ever hoisting Lord
5:19
Stanley's Cup. But
5:24
perhaps the legendary leaf defenseman's
5:26
eponymous fried dough and roasted
5:28
bean institution may serve as
5:30
a sugary, caffeinated consolation prize.
5:34
To quote a past Doughboy's
5:36
guest, Ontario's own Norm Sousa,
5:38
quote, nothing more Canadian
5:40
than a donut shop named after a
5:42
hockey player. This
5:45
week on Doughboys, we begin Toronto Dough,
5:47
Dough Canada, the Great Bite North, a
5:49
month-long culinary tour of the six with
5:51
Tim Hortons. Yeah! Yeah!
6:00
It's the Doughboy. It's
6:02
the Doughboy. Wow.
6:12
Wow. Thank
6:16
you. Welcome
6:21
to Doughboy's the podcast about chain
6:23
restaurants. What's up, TDOT? With
6:31
the Doughboys here, it's more like low T-dot. Shout
6:34
out to Barry Lamb and the Dose Cord for that joke. So,
6:38
look, I just want to get right into it
6:40
because we have so much to cover. This is
6:42
such a huge chain. This is the definitive Canadian
6:44
fast food chain. So let's get them out here.
6:47
This week's roast is courtesy of
6:50
Ian Yamamoto. Let
6:55
me introduce my co-host, Bag
6:57
of Milk. The
7:00
spoon man, Mike Mitchell. What's
7:13
up, T-town? Wow.
7:19
More like low T-town. You stole my joke.
7:23
Do they call it T-town? No, but I'm going to try
7:25
to get it started. They
7:27
already have T-dot. I've been informed. Oh,
7:30
okay. I don't really give a shit, but... Toronto,
7:35
I've been in your city for two months,
7:37
and I still have no idea what the fuck your guy's
7:39
deal is. It's
7:42
a weird place, Wags. My
7:44
first day here, a guy
7:47
came up to me and he said, you're a fucking terrorist,
7:49
and he followed me for three blocks. Wait,
7:52
really? Yes, and that's the best person
7:54
I met in Toronto. Ha ha ha
7:56
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. aren't
8:00
nice. Wow. They're
8:03
aggressively passive aggressive. Interesting.
8:06
You're all fucking dickheads.
8:11
Trump's trying to get the wrong border
8:13
wall set up. You should go north.
8:15
Fucking lock you guys out of the
8:17
US you freaks. Why
8:20
would they want to go there? What's that? Why would
8:22
they want to go there? It sucks down there. Yeah
8:24
it sucks down there. Yeah yeah no no. It sucks
8:26
down there way worse than here. Never
8:29
in my life have I said I wish I was
8:31
in Buffalo New York until I was
8:34
in Toronto, Canada. This
8:38
can't be true. You must be having a lovely
8:40
time up here. I'm sure you're doing all right.
8:42
No. Wow. Well
8:46
Mitch I've had my own struggles as
8:48
you know. I had a I
8:50
got up at 4 a.m. in Los Angeles
8:52
this morning to board a 7 a.m. flight
8:56
and I had a long-standing obligation yesterday that
8:59
I had already made a commitment to so
9:01
I had to fly out this morning. There's
9:04
a freak-off Mitch. I
9:06
was gonna say you
9:09
get all this time off from Doughboys and then
9:11
Diddy gets arrested. Look. Your
9:13
freak-offs are over. They're just not
9:16
the same anymore. They're
9:19
not the same without Diddy. They're just not the same
9:21
without Diddy. No
9:24
I had our Mitch, our good
9:26
friend, my get-played co-host Matt Apodaca got
9:28
married yesterday. How about that?
9:30
That is not true. Congrats
9:32
to Matt and his lovely wife. So
9:36
I flew up and look
9:38
I'm fucking tired and I don't love
9:40
flying and you know travel in general
9:43
makes me very anxious but I'm
9:45
honestly feeling pretty good landing on in
9:47
Toronto nothing gets delayed I feel like
9:49
I'm sitting pretty I'm gonna have a
9:51
great time. My
9:54
bag remains in LAX. So
9:57
that's what you get when you fill it up with baby oil. I
10:00
came straight from a freak
10:02
off. What do you expect?
10:10
Loose baby oil? It wasn't even in bottles? Yeah,
10:17
so a little bit of an ordeal, but still,
10:19
we're hanging in there. And let me tell you
10:22
this. It's very cool
10:24
to see in person the airport referred
10:26
to by the code YYZ. What the
10:28
fuck are you talking about? I'll
10:40
send you a Rush Starter Pack
10:42
playlist, Mitch. Do some homework. Toronto
10:45
is like New York. Rest
10:49
in peace, Neil Peart, the only good
10:51
libertarian. Oh
10:53
shit. Toronto
10:55
is like New York if you put it in a
10:57
juicer and
10:59
juiced out any interesting things. And
11:03
then you were left with
11:05
traffic and little
11:07
Canada, that exhibit of
11:09
small Canada. That's
11:12
all it has. And
11:16
why is there so much traffic? There's nothing to
11:18
do here. Where is
11:20
everyone going? Have you been
11:22
to little Canada? Fuck no.
11:26
It looks so... It's little
11:29
Toronto, isn't it? Where do
11:31
your hoggle want to move in? Everything's
11:35
to scale, okay. There
11:41
is a thing, there's a machine where
11:43
they like little Canada you down to
11:46
size. Really? Yes, it's true, right? They
11:48
downsize you? They downsize you. Wow. They
11:51
shrink you down, then they put you in the exhibit. That's
11:53
so fun. I'm
11:56
gonna try to do some fun touristy things because
11:58
we're up for a stretch. should
12:00
say. As you maybe have
12:02
inferred from this graphic and I'm not sure how
12:04
much went on on social
12:06
media so far, but this is Torrance Doe,
12:08
Doe Canada, the Great Bite North, the culinary
12:10
tour of the six. We're going to be
12:12
spending all month at
12:15
Canadian chain restaurants. Starting
12:19
things off with Tim Hortenslide. We had no
12:21
choice. Yeah. We
12:24
haven't done anything. If you listen to the podcast, we're
12:26
pretty behind. I didn't
12:28
listen, but Nellie told me that our most
12:31
recent episode, and this episode is coming out
12:33
in the first week in October, our most
12:35
recent episode, you tell me about Hawk Tua.
12:41
I'm like, what's that? She's
12:45
had a whole arc. We
12:50
missed so much stuff. We really did. I think this
12:52
is a great, this will be a nice
12:55
way to figure
12:57
out how to deal with the logistics of your schedule.
12:59
I like that we're making a meal out of it.
13:01
I like that we're being able to hit some of
13:03
these big Toronto totemic chain restaurants. I'm going to give
13:06
a little bit of the lineup so
13:08
you know what else we're going to be reviewing. I think
13:10
this is fun breaking chews here. We're
13:14
going to, so there's five Thursdays in
13:17
the month of October. Tim Hortenslide, just
13:19
today. Next week,
13:21
Harvey's. Then
13:28
Swiss Chalet. Which
13:36
pizza chain are we going to cover? Boston
13:39
Pizza. I
13:42
don't know why people wanted it over
13:44
pizza pizza. Pizza pizza seems like a stronger
13:46
thing. I won't reveal the fifth. The
13:48
fifth is a mystery chain and I
13:50
think it'll be a fun reveal when
13:52
you discover what it is in real
13:54
time. Those are some big ones. We've already
13:56
done A&W Canada in the past. The
13:58
Poutine smokes poutine-ery. We've done some big ones
14:00
already. Yeah, it's gonna be fun. Gonna be a hoot. What's
14:04
up, Wags? We, I, Mitch, I told
14:06
you that I wanted
14:08
to talk about Megalopolis before our guests come out. All
14:11
right. Did anyone see Megalop- Oh, I was
14:13
supposed to say, uh. Did anyone see Megalopolis?
14:17
Can I say my thing, too? Oh, yeah, please. Salute
14:20
ho to nation clear. Wow.
14:27
Mitch, you may not- I made it French for you,
14:29
you fucking asshole. You may not
14:31
know that, but that's a nice amouge-boosh for what's
14:33
about to come next. But we'll get there in
14:35
a second. Okay. There's
14:38
a character in Megalopolis, Aubrey Plaza's
14:41
character. Aubrey Plaza's great
14:43
in the movie. We both worked with her.
14:46
A lovely person, very talented. Her
14:49
character's name is Wow Platinum. Now,
14:52
Mitch, what is the word we
14:54
say more than any other word on the podcast? Come.
14:58
Okay. Number
15:00
two. Wow. Wow. Wow.
15:04
And what is the highest honor a chain
15:06
restaurant can achieve on
15:08
the Doughboy's podcast? Uh. If
15:12
it gets five forks from everyone. It's
15:18
fucking- The Come Play Club? No,
15:20
it's not the Come Play Club. Platinum Play
15:22
Club. The Platinum Play Club. Wow, Platinum.
15:25
I think Francis Ford Coppola is
15:27
Doughpil. He's a listener. He's a Doughboy's
15:29
listener. He's a Doughboy's listener. And
15:34
you know what that makes sense, because we're a Coppola
15:36
goofballs. We
15:40
are a Coppola- We are a Coppola goof- No,
15:44
I said it wrong too. We are a
15:47
Coppola goofballs. Yeah. Why
15:50
is a lot of people came, a lot of
15:52
Doughboy's listeners came from the States. They came from
15:54
all over. Wow, wait, wait. Who here is from
15:56
Toronto or Ontario? All right. Okay.
16:00
Good number. Who came
16:02
from another province? Whoa! Insane.
16:06
Because my understanding is every province is like a
16:08
20 plus hour drive. Every
16:11
province is like the size of Texas. Who
16:14
came from the States? Did anyone come from the US?
16:17
Wow. Wow. Man,
16:20
all these Doughboys fans here, the
16:23
ladies in Canada are gonna be Canada dry.
16:25
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
16:27
ha ha ha ha ha ha. We should
16:30
gather up all these fans and go to Niagara and
16:32
see if it dries up. I'm
16:39
saying our fans can't get women to come. That's
16:41
what I'm trying to say. Yeah, no, I understood.
16:43
I understood what you were saying. Or just aroused
16:45
in the first place. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Can't even
16:48
arouse. Yeah, it's better. No, it's fine. There's a
16:50
lot of cast mates from Twisted Metal season two
16:52
here. How about that? They're losing respect for me
16:54
by the second. Didn't have to invite them. Yeah,
16:56
that's a good point. I shouldn't have. And they
16:58
don't have respect for me anyways. Anyways, well. Mitch,
17:00
Mitch, you had, you said a little bit of
17:02
French a moment ago. Yes. And
17:04
as our audience knows, Canada
17:07
has two national languages, English and
17:10
French. And so, in
17:12
compliance with the Canadian
17:14
Official Languages Act of 1969, to
17:19
present a French language version of
17:21
this week's intro, please welcome Miguel
17:23
Gaultier. ["I Know A
17:25
Girl Need Me So She's Gonna
17:28
Be Good"] What's
17:37
up? Hey, not much. ["I
17:39
Know A Girl Need Me So She's Gonna Be Good"] Ha
17:48
ha ha ha ha! I shouldn't have asked you that,
17:51
honestly. It's all right. I'm
17:54
gonna talk in French now, so. Yeah, whenever you're ready.

1:20:24
burrito from the butt end without knowing what's going
1:20:26
on right you did do it
1:20:30
was good I liked it I would I would eat one
1:20:32
of those for lunch I
1:20:34
if in a pinch and I
1:20:36
will say I had an airport
1:20:39
breakfast burrito this morning that was
1:20:42
the like if I'd have I would have
1:20:44
killed for a Tim Hortons to your breakfast
1:20:46
as opposed to that the the airport breakfast
1:20:48
burrito I had was so it was
1:20:52
it was so flavorless
1:20:54
it was like eating a paper
1:20:56
towel roll and I
1:20:58
doused it with hot sauce to try to bring it
1:21:00
to life but it was it was disgusting like I
1:21:02
hated it was just like I'm just eating it cuz
1:21:04
I need anything in my body for
1:21:07
you know for my one meal before eat Tim Hortons and
1:21:10
yeah it's so from that standpoint I do
1:21:12
think there are items that work I did think
1:21:14
the soup what I had of it was was
1:21:16
tasty I think that was like that was like
1:21:18
that's a quality soup that's like a but a
1:21:21
Panera tier or maybe a little better than Panera
1:21:23
tier soup which for a chain restaurant
1:21:25
that's not bad yeah the
1:21:27
flatbread was exigreble
1:21:31
I was truly putrid and
1:21:34
there Mitch you liked one of them I didn't
1:21:37
like any of it embarrassingly bad the cheese pizza
1:21:39
I thought was okay no you know I know
1:21:41
he's like
1:21:45
bad I am not joking three
1:21:47
minutes later he was like I agree
1:21:50
I ate the chicken
1:21:53
parm pizza I told you I don't know if
1:21:55
I'm gonna a bar for shit and I
1:21:58
said and thank you for this love review.
1:40:00
This is why they're so nice like they're just like
1:40:04
they are not nice first of all. They're
1:40:06
nice they're really nice they
1:40:09
talk a lot of shit behind your back though.
1:40:12
Second of all you all like Tim
1:40:14
Hortons. Yes you do
1:40:16
you're lying to me. Think
1:40:19
about it just think about it for a second you
1:40:22
like it. Mitch you don't have
1:40:24
to like everywhere you go okay
1:40:26
I'm here aren't I? I'm
1:40:29
kidding I was so happy when they asked
1:40:31
me you have no idea. I have to
1:40:34
move around a little bit. Stephanie is standing
1:40:36
moving around the stage. We
1:40:39
took bets on you leaving the
1:40:41
show much earlier. Tim
1:40:45
Hortons is good. No fuck
1:40:47
you. Don't try to get
1:40:50
them back now. I'm not
1:40:52
it's done it's over. I
1:40:55
like Tim Hortons and
1:40:57
that's okay. Wow I
1:41:01
like it. I'm
1:41:04
not pandering I like Tim Hortons.
1:41:06
Wow. You know what Sparky
1:41:08
did tell me well Sparky also did tell
1:41:10
me that the beans they took the beans.
1:41:12
Okay. But then Sparky also
1:41:14
told me that that Mrs. Horton was left with
1:41:16
like so little money and I
1:41:19
don't know if that was true or not. I'm
1:41:21
sorry is Sparky okay? Sparky
1:41:26
rules but he might not know anything.
1:41:28
He was telling
1:41:30
me a bunch of stories I don't know
1:41:32
of any of them. He was talking shit
1:41:34
behind people's backs. I think a lot of
1:41:36
myths about Tim Hortons have circulated actually didn't
1:41:38
look into what happened to Tim Hortons estate
1:41:41
I would not be shocked if someone else
1:41:43
profited more off of his name than he
1:41:45
ever did. I mean that's that's the tale
1:41:47
of almost time. I like how Tim Horton
1:41:49
lived. I like how he died. Oh no
1:41:51
no no. In
1:41:53
that horrible car accident. He's
1:41:56
a trailblazer for guys like me. Well,
1:42:00
what would you guys do if I just like shot into the
1:42:02
sky? I
1:42:07
love that I apologize to Stephanie for not
1:42:09
getting her the donut and I'm going to
1:42:11
have to apologize for giving her the money.
1:42:13
I feel crazy inside. We
1:42:15
sadly, I'm we're not affected by this. I
1:42:17
felt my heart pump for the first time
1:42:19
in like a week. Yeah. I
1:42:23
what do you want? Beat per minute.
1:42:27
The doctor's happy. I'm going to be I'm a beat
1:42:29
per minute. No, I do. I can feel
1:42:31
my pulse like, don't go. OK,
1:42:34
give your forks. I'm sorry. It's OK. It's OK.
1:42:36
I did. I did. I'm a willing participant. I'm
1:42:39
sorry. I
1:42:42
like the podcast. I listen to the podcast
1:42:44
and stuff. Please don't die
1:42:46
on my can't be my fault. I
1:42:51
like Tim Horton. I like the like I said, I like the way you
1:42:53
live. I like the way that I and
1:42:57
you know what? I like his donuts. It reminds
1:42:59
me of Duncan. Now they put D on the
1:43:01
cap of the double double. It reminds
1:43:03
me of Duncan Donuts. I know that maybe it's not as
1:43:06
good as you once had, but the
1:43:08
farmer's rap is fantastic. All
1:43:11
the donuts I had were good. I like the
1:43:13
coffee. I like coffee like this. I like it
1:43:15
better than fucking Starbucks. It's
1:43:18
a lot better. I
1:43:20
like it. And the ice cap
1:43:22
is good. You're chugging water. This
1:43:24
is bad. The
1:43:27
Hamilton is a hard work in citywax.
1:43:35
And I fucking relate to that. I
1:43:38
know that I'm an actor and I'm on set. You
1:43:41
relate to it. Do you relate to what makeups like?
1:43:43
Oh, you're a little shiny here. And when they bring
1:43:45
you a tiny fan to help your sweat. You
1:43:47
know what? I'm like, that's what they're experiencing next door in
1:43:49
the steel mills in Hamilton. Tiny
1:43:52
fan. This guy's drowning in towels.
1:43:58
And you know what? Oh my
1:44:00
god, I just chugged out the whole water. Oh
1:44:02
my god. The price is right. Am I gonna
1:44:04
die? Amelia's brought in another water, there you go.
1:44:06
Look in the hell. Look. Stephanie's
1:44:10
last credit is one of her best, Doughboy's Live.
1:44:14
Something you could be proud of for your last credit.
1:44:16
True, that's true. It's
1:44:19
the prices, or working class prices.
1:44:22
Me and the boys from the mill, we can go
1:44:24
down. I'm gonna fuckin'... Come
1:44:28
on, boys. Tim's
1:44:31
on me, boys, let's go. I'm
1:44:34
drivin'. No,
1:44:37
you're not. You have a driver. You
1:44:40
literally have a driver. Sparky's drivin'.
1:44:46
And you know what? If you all look in
1:44:48
your souls, you know that
1:44:50
you like Tim's too. You're
1:44:53
lying to yourself. Five
1:44:56
fuckin' forks. Fuck
1:45:00
you. Oh my god. Fuck,
1:45:06
fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. It's
1:45:08
out, it's out, it's out. Yay! Wow.
1:45:12
Fuck the towels! Fuck the maple leaves. Fuck
1:45:16
all you. There
1:45:18
is a back entrance. No, no.
1:45:21
I'm sorry, did you say maple leaves? As in
1:45:23
the team, or the leaf? Maple
1:45:25
leaves. No, no, no. No, no,
1:45:27
no, no. As in the team, or
1:45:29
the leaf? Maple leafs. Sorry,
1:45:31
I forgot they spell it wrong. Fuckin' idiots. I just
1:45:33
didn't know, I just didn't know if you had a
1:45:35
problem with a leaf. Go Bruins, fuck you. Five forks.
1:45:46
I missed when he was joking. Mitch
1:45:50
with the go home heat, but you're gonna be
1:45:52
up here for another few months. What are you
1:45:54
doing to yourself? Yeah, I'm gonna get my ass
1:45:56
kicked probably. None of the boys
1:45:58
from Hamilton got my ass kicked. back. Look,
1:46:02
we're up against the clock, so I'll keep my
1:46:04
thoughts quick. I
1:46:07
mentioned that my first time
1:46:16
eating Tim Hortons was in Saskatoon
1:46:19
with the two of you, and
1:46:21
also with our friend
1:46:23
and past boys, double-guessed, and
1:46:25
Edmonton resident Nick Ross. Nick
1:46:29
sent me his thoughts on
1:46:31
Tim Hortons, and I want to read some of these now, because
1:46:34
I think this is honestly speaks
1:46:36
to sort of where the national character
1:46:39
is, where the national consensus is on
1:46:41
this chain. It
1:46:43
used to be so much better. Fresh
1:46:45
donuts made in-house and good breakfast sandwiches,
1:46:47
but it got bought by foreign investment,
1:46:49
and now everything is shipped in frozen.
1:46:51
They are actively getting in their own
1:46:53
way with revamped items that have no
1:46:55
business being there, like flatbread pizzas. It
1:46:58
used to be the most Canadian chain, but
1:47:01
now I feel like A&W Canada is just
1:47:03
so much better in every way. Wow. A&W
1:47:06
Canada, the number four chain restaurant
1:47:09
in terms of locations in Canada now. It's
1:47:11
a restaurant that really needs to go back
1:47:13
to basics, because even people I know prefer
1:47:15
McDonald's coffee, and coffee was supposed to be
1:47:17
the thing they were known for. Nothing about
1:47:19
the beanstheff. Nothing about the beanstheff is in
1:47:21
here, Mitch. They
1:47:23
used to have an annual contest called Roll
1:47:25
Up the Rim to Win, where
1:47:28
you could win by rolling up the paper rim
1:47:30
of your cup to see if there was a
1:47:33
prize, and they linked that to a digital app
1:47:35
and took the joy from it. It's
1:47:40
the wave of the future, back off. Kills
1:47:42
me because I wish Tim Hortons was good
1:47:44
enough that it would be a recommendation for
1:47:46
any foreigner coming to Canada, but
1:47:49
it isn't. But also
1:47:51
in a sense, it is, because
1:47:53
it's so ubiquitous and it's so
1:47:55
Canadian. And so I think this
1:47:58
belongs right in the middle of the world. middle
1:48:00
of our bell curve. I think,
1:48:02
slightly below the middle of our bell curve,
1:48:04
I think Tim Hortons as it currently stands
1:48:06
is better than Starbucks, low bar, maybe
1:48:09
a little better than Duncan overall? No
1:48:12
fucking way. And
1:48:15
I think it deserves two and a half forks.
1:48:19
Here we go, much more reasonable. All
1:48:22
right. We got a
1:48:24
food stuff we're gonna decide if it's worth putting
1:48:26
in your mouth, it's snack or whack. Now
1:48:28
look, here's the thing, we can't review every Canadian chain,
1:48:31
but there is a pretty big one we
1:48:33
want to acknowledge. Stephanie's gonna move around. We
1:48:35
have more sugar coming, and we
1:48:37
are, you have no obligation to have any of it,
1:48:39
but we do want to acknowledge a big one, Beaver
1:48:42
Tails. Beaver
1:48:45
Tails was a Canadian pastry chain founded in 1978
1:48:47
that has a distinct signature,
1:48:49
I guess torso-sized pastry they're
1:48:51
gonna taste as. You can have a bite,
1:48:53
or you also don't
1:48:56
have to have any. Anyway, to bring out some
1:48:58
Beaver Tails, please welcome Amelia Marino. Thank
1:49:03
you again, Amelia. Wow,
1:49:12
Beaver Tails, oh I guess these are
1:49:14
a little bit, this is more
1:49:16
like the size of a Nintendo switch, I
1:49:19
guess, in terms of scale. You're saying it's
1:49:21
not as big as a Beaver's Tail? Wait
1:49:23
a minute, I guess it
1:49:25
is the size of a Beaver's Tail, I don't know, I've
1:49:27
never seen a Beaver in person, not from here. If
1:49:33
you're from here, you've seen a Beaver in person for sure.
1:49:39
What are you gonna say? I was gonna say that this crowd
1:49:41
gets a treat, they get to watch the Doughboys eat Beaver for
1:49:43
the first time. How am
1:49:50
I doing? You'll
1:50:00
get there, you'll get there. Amelia, come back
1:50:02
out here. Amelia,
1:50:04
Amelia. Thank you so much
1:50:06
for all of your help. Thank you for being up here in
1:50:09
Toronto. It is your actual birthday today. Yes it
1:50:12
is. Wow.
1:50:18
Well well. Happy
1:50:21
birthday to you. Happy
1:50:25
birthday to you.
1:50:29
Happy birthday
1:50:31
dear Amelia.
1:50:34
Happy birthday to
1:50:36
you. Yes! Yeah!
1:50:44
Emma has brought out a tear tail
1:50:46
with candles. Thank you guys. This
1:50:48
is too nice. Thank
1:50:51
you. Happy birthday. Thank
1:50:54
you everyone. That's too sweet. You
1:50:57
know what? You know what I bet you wished for? For
1:50:59
Frankenstein to be okay. That
1:51:02
is true. That is so true. Thank
1:51:04
you guys. I'm gonna eat that
1:51:06
later. Thank you everyone.
1:51:12
I don't think you should take a bite of these. I'm
1:51:14
on the come down now. Now I feel like moooo. Okay.
1:51:16
Perfect time to eat more sugar. Yeah, I
1:51:18
can't wait. We have a regular
1:51:20
beaver tail. This
1:51:22
looks like some sort of Oreo cookie. This
1:51:26
is like a vanilla and choco. And
1:51:28
then we've got a strawberry cream cheese. This
1:51:32
is the strawberry cream cheese. This
1:51:34
looks horrible. I'm not gonna
1:51:37
lie. So we got a dog shit
1:51:39
one as well. Did we order the dog
1:51:41
shit one? We ordered the dog shit one. They
1:51:45
were out of cat shit is the thing. That was our first
1:51:47
choice. Are you sure? It
1:51:51
looks like fair food. That looks really unappetizing. But
1:51:54
that one might be good. I
1:51:56
would not be shocked if that was like secretly good. There's a little bit
1:51:58
of toffee on it or something. Yeah, it might be good. Okay,
1:52:00
okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. All right, we're
1:52:03
gonna do this now. Is that the plane one? I'm eating the
1:52:05
birthday one. Sorry, Amelia. Alana,
1:52:07
you have, you enjoy Beaver Day. You
1:52:09
like the Beaver Day. I do. My
1:52:11
favorite is the original one that's like
1:52:13
cinnamon and sugar that Mitch is having.
1:52:16
Sometimes people put lemon on it. Anybody
1:52:18
here? Yeah, lemon. It's really good. I
1:52:21
find, because you know these are pretty thin,
1:52:23
so I find when it has too many
1:52:25
toppings it falls apart and it's too gooey
1:52:27
and then I'm too concerned about the mess
1:52:29
to enjoy myself. So me, I'm keeping
1:52:31
it clean. Stick
1:52:34
them with your rich. That cinnamon
1:52:36
sugar one is just kind of like a flat churro. That's
1:52:38
exactly what I was about to say. That is exactly
1:52:40
what I was about to say. We have fun up
1:52:42
here. I like it. Yeah,
1:52:45
we'll do it our way. We'll flan out anything.
1:52:47
We don't care. We really don't. Mitch,
1:52:51
you look like something? Are
1:52:53
you okay? You all right? I
1:52:56
don't want to eat any of the beaver tail. You
1:52:59
don't have to. You don't have to.
1:53:01
Am I right? Well,
1:53:04
well, well. No, that's not what this
1:53:06
is. I do this all the time.
1:53:09
You don't have to, Mitch. I
1:53:11
just feel so sick from Tim Hortons. Well, don't, yeah,
1:53:13
if you're not feeling great, don't do it. You gave
1:53:16
it five! It was
1:53:18
good. It's good. Honestly,
1:53:21
I love the place. I'm going
1:53:24
to puke, but I love the place. What is
1:53:26
that on the face?
1:53:29
This is a nightmare to try to saw through.
1:53:31
It's not, uh... That's what I'm saying. You
1:53:33
have to pull it apart. There's no other way to do it. This isn't
1:53:36
like a sharing... No, that's the thing. It's just like you're grabbing it,
1:53:38
and then this thing's just like coated with topping. My hands are just
1:53:40
going to get, uh... I'm just
1:53:42
taking bites out of each of them. So goopy. Did
1:53:46
you remember, uh... I can't remember what it was called.
1:53:48
It was a chain in the US called, like, Godfather's
1:53:50
Pizza. Yeah, Godfather Pizza. Herman Cain worked
1:53:52
it. It does taste like dessert pizza. That was
1:53:54
his company, yeah. Yeah. Herman Cain, who
1:53:56
had a quixotic presidential run. in
1:54:00
2012 maybe, and yeah, he was the
1:54:02
godfather of godfather's pizza. That was his company.
1:54:05
They're pretty fucking good on us. Can I try that one
1:54:07
too? Sorry. I've enjoyed what
1:54:09
I've eaten. I've changed my mind. I want to try each one.
1:54:13
Wow. We should say we took, we got
1:54:15
to that, you know, we got to take the metro over
1:54:17
here, which I really enjoyed. Very happy to hop on the
1:54:19
choo-choo. Alana, you were an able guide on
1:54:22
the subway. Very, very fun. We had one point where
1:54:24
we went out of a tunnel and we went into
1:54:26
greenery and it was very lush. It was beautiful. I
1:54:28
was like, oh, how fun is this? We
1:54:31
had another bit of fun, which
1:54:33
is there is a stop called
1:54:35
Castle Frank, which
1:54:43
Mitch and I were both delighted by. I
1:54:46
loved it. And then we also, we talked about
1:54:48
how Frankenstein lives there. That's where his castle is.
1:54:50
Yeah. It got in an
1:54:52
accident driving home. But
1:54:55
then you said that Alana, this is like kind of
1:54:57
a known stop because people have some affection for it
1:54:59
because no one goes there. Yeah.
1:55:04
So it's just one of those stops that's just there. And like, there's some
1:55:06
of these in LA like metro system too,
1:55:08
that's just like, it doesn't seem like anyone ever
1:55:10
gets on or gets off, but it's just part
1:55:12
of the system. Did you see anyone get on
1:55:14
or off? No. Well, Frankenstein lives there. They're probably
1:55:16
scared. Good point. Didn't
1:55:18
have any torches or pitchforks. I was tickled
1:55:20
by that. I was delighted to go by
1:55:22
Castle Frank. Me too.
1:55:24
I loved it. And
1:55:28
I got to be honest, part of my
1:55:30
affection for it was, my
1:55:37
full legal name is Nicholas Frank
1:55:39
Weiger. And
1:55:44
sometimes I go by Frank, which means
1:55:46
this time for this week in Canadian
1:55:48
hot dog news and another edition of
1:55:50
Let Me Be Frank. Hot
1:56:03
dog, steamer in the city, greater my
1:56:05
grill, getting greasy and gritty Toast
1:56:07
bone, don't it look pretty Suckin' on a dog
1:56:09
like you're suckin' on a titty Pork
1:56:12
and beef, sausages and long bread Rollin' on a
1:56:14
roller grill, mustard ain't real One
1:56:17
bite is a different world, I swapped off
1:56:19
bites with a girl Munch
1:56:21
on, munch on and chomp all night Just bite
1:56:23
the fucks, it'll be alright That
1:56:25
taste, when the casing has snapped Later
1:56:27
that day, you'll sure have to nap
1:56:29
As it simmers in the city, like
1:56:32
you're suckin' on a titty You
1:56:36
ain't nothin' but a hot dog, fryin'
1:56:39
all the time You
1:56:42
ain't nothin' but a hot dog, fryin'
1:56:45
all the time You
1:56:48
ain't never been a burger and you ain't
1:56:50
no lunch of mine They
1:56:53
said you a sandwich, well
1:56:55
that was just a lie They
1:56:58
said you a sandwich, well
1:57:01
that was just a lie Just
1:57:04
a bun around a wiener so you
1:57:06
sure don't qualify If
1:57:10
you could eat my
1:57:12
Frank Weiss, what a
1:57:15
taste that dog would have Just
1:57:26
like in old time
1:57:28
Frankfurt, one you get
1:57:30
from a baseball game In
1:57:34
a bun so soft, with
1:57:36
a mustard squirt and
1:57:39
onions diced on top You
1:57:43
know that Frank's for me,
1:57:46
and it will never be
1:57:49
for free As
1:57:51
long as it's a Frank that
1:57:54
you eat In
1:58:14
this society, is
1:58:16
this where we're eating? The
1:58:18
only Frankfurter that's available to us? My
1:58:22
plan is a wiener people can dream
1:58:24
about. A
1:58:26
hot dog opolis. When
1:58:31
a fast food empire dies, does
1:58:33
it collapse in one terrible E. coli
1:58:36
poisoning scandal? No, but
1:58:39
there comes a meal when people
1:58:41
no longer eat there. Imagine
1:58:45
today's society as a sausage link
1:58:47
of civilization about to reach a
1:58:49
burnt end. Don't
1:58:52
let the chow destroy
1:58:54
the Frank ever. What
1:59:04
about those standing in your way? Who
1:59:11
like their hot dog the way it is? Good
1:59:14
question, live audience member. When
1:59:19
we ask these questions about the menu,
1:59:22
when there's a dialogue about
1:59:24
specials and substitutions, that
1:59:27
basically is foodtopia.
1:59:31
Directed by Frankfurter
1:59:33
Ford Doggala. Wow.
1:59:39
Frankfurter Ford Doggala.
1:59:42
Yeah, Frankfurter Ford Doggala. In case you
1:59:45
didn't hear it, Frankfurter Ford Doggala. Frankfurter
1:59:47
Ford Doggala. Guys,
1:59:50
that was exceptional. It
1:59:53
really was. It was so entertaining.
1:59:55
I have to say, Mitch. You
2:00:00
knew it. You knew the
2:00:02
song, you knew it. I pulled out the lyric.
2:00:04
Look, I'll be honest with you. This
2:00:06
morning it was going to be a Doctor Evil
2:00:08
monologue. And
2:00:11
then Weig said, we gotta do
2:00:13
Megalopolis. And I said, have
2:00:15
fun, buddy. So
2:00:19
things switched up a little bit. But you
2:00:21
know what? People liked it. You've
2:00:24
got the voice of an angel. Thank you. You have
2:00:26
a lovely singing voice. And I know you love Gordon
2:00:28
Lightfoot. I love Gordon Lightfoot. Hannah Dazon. Gold's
2:00:31
Gold. You got me listening to Gordon Lightfoot.
2:00:33
I'll get you listening to Rush. Stephanie, ask
2:00:35
me what's going on. Fair question. What
2:00:41
happened? It was
2:00:43
like Elvis. And I had
2:00:45
a weird teenage like, ah! No,
2:00:49
but in Stephanie's defense, it
2:00:51
came out of nowhere. I mean, it
2:00:53
just came out of nowhere. I was
2:00:55
like, what beta? Alpha, alpha, alpha. And then
2:00:57
when you went up and sang, I
2:00:59
was like, wow, he's got such good
2:01:01
range. Oh, man. Oh, my god. I
2:01:05
feel like that was an absolute motherfucking
2:01:07
fever dream that I just witnessed. And
2:01:10
I can't even. Well, it's one of those
2:01:12
things where you're like, this is incredible. I'm
2:01:14
enjoying this. But it keeps going. It's a
2:01:17
podcast. It's so long. Do we need this?
2:01:19
Yeah, one of those. It turns out this
2:01:21
is all happening in Stephanie's mind during a
2:01:23
sugar induced coma. I
2:01:27
would not be surprised. Wow. What
2:01:29
an Elvis he does, huh? It was great. I like
2:01:32
what he does. It was so good. Thank god bless.
2:01:34
If the Colonel heard that, he would not be surprised
2:01:36
that you were white, by the way. Yeah,
2:01:40
he's white. Yeah, no, I know. Oh,
2:01:42
the Doughboys? Yeah, they're white. What
2:01:44
are you talking about? So we're going to Google hot
2:01:46
dogs. I can tell you they're not white. They're
2:01:48
white? I know they're white. For
2:01:52
the 10 people that have seen the movie. They're
2:01:55
going hard on Megalopolis and Bob
2:01:58
Slurman's Elvis. Let's
2:02:00
throw the whale in there while we're at it. All
2:02:04
right, we got a bitch. We'll just do
2:02:06
one each because we got to get to questions. We're
2:02:08
going way too fucking long here. So yeah, we're searching
2:02:10
for hot dogs on Google. Hot dog, but I
2:02:13
think hot dog Canada. I think it's a Canadian thing. Before
2:02:15
that, can I just tell you one of the first things
2:02:17
that popped up? I have to tidy up now because
2:02:20
the sugar's still like, blah, blah, blah, blah,
2:02:22
blah. So like, it didn't end it. I
2:02:24
don't know how to do it. What's happening?
2:02:26
We're going to look at articles. We're
2:02:29
going to Google and you can read the first one
2:02:31
out. I once snuck into
2:02:33
a ditty party. Here's how I schmooze with
2:02:35
the stars at an event with naked women
2:02:37
and the best hot dogs. That's
2:02:40
in hot dog news. Wow.
2:02:43
Hot dog news. Miss
2:02:46
that headline. Here's one I searched.
2:02:48
This is on my preferred search engine, Microsoft Bing.
2:02:51
This is from the Daily Hive. I
2:02:53
searched for hot dog Canada on news. Blue
2:02:56
Jays fans eat obscene number of
2:02:59
hot dogs breaking a record. Wow.
2:03:02
God bless. So proud. I'll
2:03:06
meet you guys. Over 700,000 loony
2:03:09
dogs were consumed this season. Oh,
2:03:11
wait. They were only a loony? Apparently.
2:03:14
I don't know what the right is. Is a loony dog
2:03:16
a loony? It's $1. On loony dog night. There's a loony
2:03:18
dog night. I think it was against the Red Sox and
2:03:20
a lot of people online said it was me that was
2:03:22
doing this. And it
2:03:25
wasn't me just to be clear. Like
2:03:27
a special price or something? Yeah,
2:03:30
it's apparently a promotion every Tuesday. $1 hot
2:03:32
dogs. And they
2:03:36
broke the record this season. And on August
2:03:38
29, yeah, 76,627 hot dogs were
2:03:42
sold during a single game against the
2:03:44
Washington Nationals. How about that? Wow. Wow.
2:03:47
I'm proud of you. Yeah. Maybe
2:03:50
your greatest national achievement. Health
2:03:54
care is pretty good. All right, we got to take
2:03:56
some questions, Mitch. Yeah, we're done. That's let me be
2:03:58
frank. That's an abrupt let me be frank. and a
2:04:00
preview and a let-me-re-frank. All
2:04:02
right, Emma. What's up? Who
2:04:05
are we bringing out for questions? All right, I
2:04:07
got Alyssa C. Benny, AKA Matthew B., and Connor
2:04:09
M., if you wanna come meet me over in
2:04:11
front of the stage. All right, walk on down
2:04:13
to where Emma is right there and
2:04:16
have your question locked and loaded, and we'll get
2:04:18
to you. That's so crazy, because I'm seeing people
2:04:20
walk out. There are people
2:04:22
walking out. Also, you can leave. If you wanna
2:04:25
leave, you're like, you're not captain here. I saw
2:04:27
one person go to the bathroom. If you wanna
2:04:29
leave, we will remember what you look like. Okay?
2:04:33
All right, I got Alyssa here. I got someone walking
2:04:35
right there. Oh, Alyssa, hi. Hi, Alyssa. Hi, Alyssa. Hi,
2:04:38
Joe, boys. Hi, how you doing? What's your
2:04:40
question? My question is, what is your number
2:04:43
one Canadian snack that you are sneaking back
2:04:45
over the border? This is a great question.
2:04:47
Sure is. And actually-
2:04:49
Just kidding. This tees me up to
2:04:51
some degree, because I'm going
2:04:53
to allow every questioner, we are going to
2:04:55
allow every questioner to rummage through this Nestle
2:04:57
50 box, which
2:05:00
has four different candies,
2:05:02
Coffee Crisp, Kit Kat, Arrow, and
2:05:04
Smarties. Very different from the American
2:05:06
Smarties. American Smarties are like a
2:05:10
fruit candy. This one is a chocolate
2:05:12
candy. I
2:05:14
like that Coffee Crisp. That Coffee Crisp is real
2:05:16
good. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
2:05:19
Yeah. Yeah. We
2:05:22
had those on set sometimes. We had those on set. Yeah,
2:05:24
they're quite delicious. They're very, very good. Alyssa, what's your answer?
2:05:27
It's a Coffee Crisp. It's a Coffee Crisp. For you, I
2:05:29
agree. Is that what you're taking? That's what I'm taking. Take
2:05:31
a couple if you want. Yeah. Treat
2:05:33
yourself. My brother. Not too many, I need a few.
2:05:38
Mitch, do you have a Canadian candy you really like? Uh.
2:05:43
Ricola. Ricola. I'm
2:05:46
going to take the Ricola back, thank you Stephanie. How
2:05:49
long has it been since I
2:05:51
ate the honey thing? Like five
2:05:54
minutes? Yeah. I
2:05:56
feel sort of normal again. Now. after
2:06:00
we sang Let Me Be Frank. Yeah, I mean, I think
2:06:02
I mean, Coffee
2:06:06
Crisp is the answer, right? It's coffee. This was
2:06:08
great. It's so distinct to there really doesn't just
2:06:10
have to be a sweet like hello, ketchup chips.
2:06:13
Oh boy, I wasn't thinking about chips at
2:06:15
all. What about him? Have you
2:06:17
guys tried Maynard's wine gums? Can you come
2:06:19
home with me? I saw them. I was
2:06:21
like, what?
2:06:26
Incredible Maynard wine
2:06:29
gums. I mean, that's how
2:06:31
we say it. I have some
2:06:33
manners at Beetlejuice too. I had some
2:06:35
Maynard's and that's fun. Okay, name drop.
2:06:38
Sorry, I mean, it remained named drop
2:06:40
Beetlejuice. Two. I can't
2:06:42
say it one more time. All
2:06:46
dressed. I forgot about I loved all dress
2:06:48
chips. Those are wonderful. They're they just do
2:06:50
not exist in the States. All right. Next
2:06:52
question. Hi, what's your name? Connor. Connor. Hi,
2:06:54
Connor. Hi, Doughboys. Are you reading?
2:06:56
What are you reading from? You're
2:06:58
scaring us. Book
2:07:01
of Mormon. I didn't write the question by
2:07:03
myself. Yeah. Oh, wow. Okay. That's
2:07:05
a thing about her help you. Did your
2:07:08
significant other help you? Yes. Love
2:07:11
this. She's the Doughboys
2:07:13
fan. I'm the plus one. Wow.
2:07:15
This is a version of expectation.
2:07:18
What do you think of the show so
2:07:20
far? That's entertaining. Okay, all
2:07:23
right. That
2:07:26
took a second. It's all
2:07:29
entertaining. It's he looked
2:07:31
at you and said it's he looked at why I said
2:07:33
on and he looked at Stephanie and I said enter. Connor,
2:07:35
what is
2:07:38
the question? A bit
2:07:40
long. Sorry. Okay. Okay. So Ricky from
2:07:43
the trailer Park Boys Famicily loves chicken
2:07:45
chips. And I have
2:07:48
a text chain with an old coworker
2:07:50
where we exclusively send pictures of chicken
2:07:52
chip flavors. The latest
2:07:54
was a subway teriyaki chicken. So
2:07:57
my question is what chicken preparation would
2:07:59
you like to see in a chip form? Okay,
2:08:02
yeah, keep going. Mine
2:08:04
is a chicken and waffles chips.
2:08:06
Oh, that's fun. Now,
2:08:09
all that is coming from the voice of your
2:08:11
significant other. We worked
2:08:13
on it together. Okay, got it. That is a collab.
2:08:15
I'm sorry. I apologize. A
2:08:17
collab. That's a great question. Just
2:08:20
help me wrap my mind around a chicken chip.
2:08:22
This is like a potato chip. This is like
2:08:24
a crisp with chicken flavor. Okay.
2:08:26
So, like, I could say tandoori chicken chip.
2:08:29
Oh, that's fun. There you go. I love that idea. You
2:08:32
got it. No, that's not mine. Mine is butter chicken.
2:08:34
Chicken chip. Oh, butter chicken is a great one.
2:08:36
That would be mine. Oh, boy. I had
2:08:38
a roti for the first time. Oh, that would be so good.
2:08:40
That would be so good. Yeah. Yeah.
2:08:43
So good. Very good. Yeah.
2:08:46
It's like an Indian
2:08:48
burrito. Yeah. It
2:08:50
was good. They handed it to you. They
2:08:52
said it was a low tea. So,
2:08:59
this is, again, I think, like, the
2:09:02
problem is when I love fried chicken is my
2:09:04
favorite food. I love just,
2:09:06
like, a well-seasoned fried chicken. You know what
2:09:08
I mean? Like, a Popeyes fried chicken. Just
2:09:10
like salty, you know,
2:09:13
savory. So as
2:09:15
far as, like, a specific varietal, I guess
2:09:17
I tend towards
2:09:20
I think I'd want something garlicky. Maybe
2:09:23
like a lemon pepper garlic, if that's an
2:09:25
option. And I know that's a little
2:09:27
specific, but I'm almost like I feel like lemon pepper is
2:09:29
like a little too, you know, on the
2:09:31
nose. So I want to go at it from a different
2:09:34
angle a little bit. I might be overthinking it. Maybe I'll
2:09:36
just say lemon pepper, but I think lemon pepper garlic gives
2:09:38
it a little something. Jesus Christ. Don't you? When
2:09:40
you get the- That's the show, man. No,
2:09:42
no, I know. That's the show. I'm just
2:09:45
reminded of it. Here's the thing. I,
2:09:47
like, I'm, you might be expecting something spicy because I'm a bit of
2:09:49
a heat seeker, but I- Lemon
2:09:54
pepper's pretty good. And then also at the same time, you got to
2:09:56
worry about Dracula. So you got to get garlicky there somehow. So-
2:10:00
Lemon burger garlic is kind of a good combo. I think that that
2:10:02
that that that that was... You want fucking Dracula breathing down your neck
2:10:04
when you're trying to munch on some crisps? Not down my neck. So
2:10:07
worst place you'd ever be? Yeah, it's too sweaty. He's
2:10:09
gonna slide right off! I'll
2:10:17
stick with lemon pepper. I'm
2:10:21
trying to win the crowd back over,
2:10:23
so Swiss-set chalet sauce. Wow.
2:10:26
Chicken chips. Incredible. You could've just
2:10:28
said quarter chicken, but that's
2:10:31
fine. Do you want spicy chicken sandwich or rundies? I
2:10:33
would do like hot Nashville hot chicken.
2:10:35
Oh, I love that. That's a lot of fun.
2:10:37
That would maybe work best. Wait,
2:10:40
did you go on? He ran away. Did you rummage? Connor,
2:10:42
did you rummage? He didn't want one. Your
2:10:45
S.O. doesn't want to rummage. He
2:10:47
was running away. He was running away. He was
2:10:49
running away. Okay.
2:10:52
Don't make that. Connor's leaving so
2:10:55
they can go draft some more
2:10:57
questions together. All
2:11:02
right, this is Benny. Hi, Benny. Hi, Benny.
2:11:04
Hi, Doughboys and Knife and Stephanie. Oh,
2:11:07
finally! So
2:11:10
I'm here with my friend Travis and my lovely
2:11:12
partner Liza, who is almost
2:11:14
37 weeks pregnant. Wow!
2:11:17
Yay! Congratulations! Have
2:11:20
it now! Please
2:11:24
don't have it now. Please don't. Please don't. I'll come to
2:11:26
move forward. Do you know anything
2:11:28
about pregnancy? It's close. It's
2:11:31
not time. Okay, sorry. I don't know too
2:11:33
much. Keep it in. So
2:11:39
my question is, if you can name your child after any
2:11:41
chain restaurant, which one would you choose? Wow. This
2:11:44
is really, this is a really tough question because
2:11:46
you want it to be also like a name. You
2:11:49
know what I mean? Like, I love In-N-Out
2:11:51
Burger. Oh,
2:11:53
old In-N-Out Wigur? That's the thing.
2:11:55
A child is a name. I love In-N-Out Burger.
2:11:58
That's the thing. A child name in a... out. Doesn't
2:12:03
want to be reminded of how he was conceived. I
2:12:08
think I have an answer, and
2:12:10
it is a titan not just
2:12:12
of my personal chain restaurant fandom,
2:12:14
but also a titan of improv
2:12:16
comedy. And where would we be
2:12:18
without improv? Thank you, Mr.
2:12:20
Close. Thank you, Mr. Close. Thank you,
2:12:22
Mr. Taco. Del Taco, my child, would
2:12:25
be named Del. Del Weiger.
2:12:27
Del Weiger. And then also, just
2:12:29
because Del Taco as a name
2:12:31
makes no sense, because it was
2:12:33
shortened from Casa Del Taco to
2:12:36
just Del Taco, they Sean Parker it, and now
2:12:38
it's just is like of the taco is like
2:12:40
what the name of it means. So then you
2:12:42
have like of the Weiger, which kind of makes
2:12:45
sense. It's a child's name. Five
2:12:47
guy Mitchell. McDonald's Mitchell is pretty
2:12:49
good. See,
2:12:58
I was gonna say Arby's because they have the meat.
2:13:01
Yes. And it sounds like an eight. Yeah,
2:13:03
Arby's is great. With
2:13:06
the S. I'll turn a
2:13:08
Canadian for how about Harvey? Harvey is a good
2:13:10
one. Harvey Weinstein, very good
2:13:12
name. I love it. Did
2:13:15
one come to mind for you? Is there anything you're weighing? The
2:13:18
only one I would name it after is Swishalei because it's
2:13:21
a five fork restaurant. Wow. Wow.
2:13:25
We'll see after I'm done with it.
2:13:27
We certainly shall. Hey folks, that's our
2:13:29
show. Thanks. Thank you. Alletta
2:13:33
Johnston. Emilia.
2:13:35
Thanks. They were the
2:13:37
dance for musical. And then it's time for the permanent Mike
2:13:39
Mitchell. I'm Nick Weiger. Happy.
2:13:42
Hey. The
2:14:03
knife is here with the knife's momma now, mom?
2:14:07
Yes I am. Well I'm the mom
2:14:09
of the knife for sure. Okay
2:14:11
mom. I gave her a knife when she
2:14:13
was one year old to cut her cake,
2:14:15
her birthday cake. It's true and there's a
2:14:17
photo of me holding a knife as a
2:14:19
baby. Now mom, what did you think about
2:14:21
Tim Hortons? Well I
2:14:25
have two views on this. I love Tim
2:14:27
Hortons. I'm a big Tim Hortons fan but
2:14:29
I gotta tell you, the quality has gone
2:14:32
down the drain. That's what I said. Yes.
2:14:35
Especially when they're giving me the
2:14:37
cream in my coffee. I say
2:14:39
half of a cream and it's
2:14:42
so white. This is my third
2:14:44
time hearing this story. I
2:14:46
hate it. I hate it. I hate like
2:14:48
24 hours. But I still go there because I
2:14:51
do believe they might change and get back to
2:14:53
the 60s. And
2:14:55
how do you feel about not being
2:14:57
asked to be on the Doughboys podcast?
2:14:59
Very upset. Actually furious. I am
2:15:02
furious. These people here. Why
2:15:04
were they consulting experts? My dad. This
2:15:07
is the nice dad. My biggest complaint with
2:15:09
Tim Hortons is they don't sell beer. That's
2:15:14
not mine. Mine is I want
2:15:16
quality. I want the quality
2:15:18
I'm used to from the 70s. Speaking
2:15:20
of quality, it's time to sign off.
2:15:25
When I find myself with
2:15:28
tummy grumbles, Evan Susser comes
2:15:30
to me. We
2:15:33
drive crazy fast to
2:15:35
Mickey D's. And
2:15:39
when it's time to order, she
2:15:41
is standing right in front of
2:15:43
me. Accidentally
2:15:45
order hot dogs Mickey
2:15:48
D's. Mickey
2:15:51
D's. Mickey D's. Fucking
2:15:55
up at Mickey D's. I'll
2:15:58
just have a fan. to Mickey
2:16:01
D's. Toronto!
2:16:05

2:16:07
