The Friday Mailbag - Gummy Frankenstein

0:00Are you tired of the mainstream media's coverage of the NBA? You ever wonder about what they're hiding? The stories that don't fit the agenda. Do you want the truth? You think you can handle it? Welcome to Basketball Illuminati. I'm Tom Havirstrom. And I'm a mean I'll ask them. With over two decades of experience navigating the shadowy depths of the NBA. We'll peel back the curtain and show you how the Hidden Cobalt really operates. Are you ready to be enlightened? Basketball Illuminati podcast. Join the Illumination and keep your third eye open. Or relax before going to bed. Easy stories in English is the podcast video.

1:27That's what I thought ERO would gonna help us out with. You know, but we'll see if ERO gets it done. Hopefully I can make it through this podcast and not be choppy as much. I can be your ERO beaming. Okay, Henry K. That was good. Henry K. That was great. I mean ERO, they're the new router guys, right? They are actually really good. So we'll find out how it works as I continue to ask. How many I have to buy is really doing the same thing. Yeah, I've got big old router in the downstairs and then I've got an extender upstairs from

2:32my mom. But the fun part is trying to figure out where to put the extender and then I'm looking at the signal and then I'm moving the extender. I'm like, well, it really wants the extender to be covering in the air right here. But then it'll drop down to like one bar. I'm like, okay, all right, guys. What I'm annoyed about is because also because I'm a little bit cheap. I was like, I'm only buying one right now and see if I can make it. I'm not buying. I probably need to, but I'm like, I'm not buying two right after that. I'm buying one. You must have like, yeah, like concrete in the floor between the floors or something. It's just something weird like that. You know how it goes. The further away you go from it, the strength and everything. It just sucks. It's annoying. Yeah. I was having internet issues like I always do and I live in a 500 square foot studio and it's like, hmm, we're sensing you have issues with your and my router is pretty centrally

3:32located. Right. And there's only like half a wall, okay? And it's like, we're sensing that you're not getting the full thing out of you might need an extender. I'm like, I do not need an extender for my 500 square foot studio like the router should cover 500 feet. I can see the router from every point. I can literally see it. Yeah. The Wi-Fi. I can draw things at it whenever I want. Entering my brain. And it actually was just one of those things where it just needed, I just needed to do a reset on there and which is also so annoying. It's like, why should it need to reset every once in a while? It should just work or if it senses itself and doesn't reset itself or something like overnight? Why do I have to manually figure it? See, Ale, I don't feel like it should be something that they reset once a day or once a week at like the middle of the night. Like, hey, the router and it could change the different, you know, whatever regions that

4:34I don't know, but like they can do this without you having to call in for a reset. It's not good. It's just the amount of time on hold sucks. Yeah. Yeah. That's, it's just like ridiculous because I had to do concert, well, not had to, but I had concert ticketing this week. And of course, I start getting dropouts like two days before and I'm like, you guys are not about to do this to me. You get the BTS tickets? No, it's not BTS. It's one of us. My, my alt group, they're going on tour in December. So I'll send you, may I send you to date? I'll be unavailable for it. But it's like a lot of December. December. Got it. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe we'll get some boots on the ground reporting from the concert. Who knows? We'll see. I mean, it could happen. It could happen. I'll, I'll call in from the concert. We love and eat in live on the scene video. We sure do. That's what derailed the beginning of the podcast last week.

5:35My dad, my dad told me he's like, I need to just start watching it on YouTube because the audio only mailbag when you guys are talking about the gay vampire founding fathers. I need to know what we're dealing with here. So, you know, I do always try to consider the audio audience, but yeah, we do. We do do a lot of, we've been doing a lot of pictures lately, but that's what's fun. You know, it's the, the, the cosplayers. Yeah. We're not showing cosplayers very often. It just happened to be eating boots on the ground. Constant. Yeah. And I try to do my best to describe. Describe. Yeah, you did. That you send to us. But, you know, it's always, it's always a little easier to see it yourself. Um, the funny thing about the internet conversation is I think now, so, you know, I got new like fiber or whatever that was available in my area and I got the router.

6:39Now I think my computer is the one holding up the speed deal. Yeah. Now my computer is too outdated to hit the speeds that the router is capable of. But you upgraded not too long ago, right? That's right. That's right. It was like 2022. Yeah. It was like within the last three years. I think that's kept it a gig though. 2022, I guess, I guess technology has moved quite fast in the last like two years. They didn't think we'd be capable of of speeds beyond that. So it's just funny. There's always some, yeah. Some limiter being applied. No, when I was testing earlier this week, it was funny because I was getting dropouts on my M3, which is the more powerful MacBook. And like my M1 was not getting it nearly as bad. And I was like, this makes no sense like that the M1 is performing better. So at first I thought it was a device issue, which I know that Internet, troubleshooting Internet issues is riveting podcast content. We're killing it. We're killing it. But I didn't have any of that. I think that's it.

7:40So weeks it's the vampire gang vampire founding father. So weeks it's, hey, a troubleshooting Internet. It's just you never know what you get with the mailbag. That's the point. Some weeks Katie is right on time with one minute to spare. Hello, hello, Americans. Happy holidays. So it to you all. There we go. How's our girl doing Mo? We're fine. We're fine. Stop wishing bad Jews you want me please. It's not going to happen. It's not going to happen. Thank you. Thank you. All right. It was the funniest thing was I, so as Zach's trip was coming, I was like, man, I should use the act of text and just say like, hey, man, have a great trip. Enjoy. But I'm like, he's going to make a fucking comment. And I didn't even have to. He sends me a call. He just sends me the text on his way to the airport. Hey, I look like fuck. That's that's the quintessential Mo and Zach. Friendship in a text message.

8:41Yeah. It's pretty much so beautiful. I hate him. So I thought I had a, I had a good idea somewhere in the last week to just sneak one CT5 in there before, before Zach left for Japan. And so this morning, bright and early on your podcast feed on the Patreon and on YouTube, CT5 terrorists was released. Oh, no. And you know, I thought we were being a little controversial and a little provocative. But then I was stunned to see how many 9-11 special podcasts there were on my feed this morning. Really? No money and Howard Bryant decided to unpack 9-11. I am skipping all of it. On how 9-11 change sports forever, special edition, you know, special edition.

9:43Wait a second with Jason Concepcion. They did the mystery of the 9-11 anthrax attacks. Oh, I actually listened to that one. That one was interesting. The anthrax attacks was interesting. Anything about building seven? That's the second half of the podcast. Yeah, perfect. So they got it covered. And then there was one more I thought that was that I think I saw. But it's like, oh, okay. So not, I'm not alone in trying to, trying to capitalize on that. Yeah. Which I think means that, you know, 25 years, we've officially, we're okay with it. Like we've come to terms with it. We're like, wait, you know, special edition. But all these other podcasts you mentioned were like actually talking about like the social or societal impact of 9-11. But you guys just did it. Oh, yeah. But you guys did actual fun content. What? Eden, no, we did a special episode where we, you know, tackled the 25 year anniversary

10:50of thinking about a certain day in our history. Yeah, that's what it was about. I'll go listen after this. Yeah, go listen. And then, and then judge me. I'll judge you. I'll judge you. Are there a patron sadly? Not a patron. All right, well, Zach is in Japan. He already sent us his wall of snacks. Still a pretty private leave. I don't even know where I would begin with that picture. That's why I said I will take one of everything. Yeah. Like I guess the easy part for me is I guess skip whatever is pork based. But like there's still, that's still walking away with like 20 things. I want every single one of those rice ball, the triangle kimbap or the Onigiri. Oh, I want one of those. All of those. I want one of all of those. Yeah, I don't even know what some of this stuff is because Japan is so far ahead of us when it comes to convenience foods. He needs a snack suitcase.

11:53You can't even bring half of it back there. Yeah, yeah. I mean, you can't bring meat products back into the like states. It's so, and like everything. You can do some fun snacks and eat them. I don't think I don't want them to bring them meat to the United States. We don't deserve it. We don't deserve it here. Like in that way of like we wouldn't, we wouldn't enjoy it the way we should eat. That's true. But it's just like, it'll be like some snacks like Katie's talking about, both like that has like chicken powder and technically you're not even supposed to like bring that in. Mm. Jameson powder. Jameson is now reading to see if it has chicken powder. I know, but it's technically, technically. And also like beef jerky, why can't you bring beef jerky back? Because Taiwan has really, really strong beef jerky game. Asia, all of East Asia does or all of Asia does. I'm sure actually. And I'm just like, it's cured. Why can't we bring it back? Yeah, if it doesn't need to be rooted in it and it's sealed like, let it be sealed. Yeah, vacuum sealed. Like, even if it's not like put in a Ziploc like who cares?

12:56Well, we care because we don't want to bring those foreign bodies into our community. Our country, keep your strong jerky game on the other side of the world. When I signed up for that Beagle rescue, you had to fill out all this stuff, including like if you get arrested, what's your jail snack? And at the time, I didn't realize this was an organization basically completely run by vegans. And mine was beef jerky. And I felt like a real ass. Later on, I was like, I can't believe I told vegans my jail snack is beef jerky. I'm not quite as bad as Katie, but like I had a friend of mine. She invited me to a Halloween party and the last second I scrambled. And I'm like, oh, I'll be Indiana Jones. I can just get whatever I have a leather jacket, all that stuff. And then she looked at me when I came in. And she's like, is that a real leather jacket? I'm like, yeah, I got a turkey. And then a moment after I said that, like, shit, you're vegan. You hate this.

13:57So I know the feeling, Katie. She used to that like a sore thumb and the be go rescue. And I don't even even eat beef anymore. So when they say they're asking for your prison snack, is that like so they can bring it to you when you get arrested? Yeah, they're like, if you know, you get arrested, like we'll try to do our best to get you a nice snack. And I'm thinking like, that's cool. You know, I thought that was a good, a good jail snack, but. First off, yes. I mean, I can ask you for it for a, but yeah. Yes. Good jail. I think that's right though, because you're getting, you're getting, it's, it's non-potable and you're getting the most like long lasting energy out of it probably. Like if I need to fight somebody, it's also not possible. I'm genuinely asking, I don't know. I've only ever seen word right. You want to check it with your friend and see what she says.

14:57I'm only asking. I've only read the word. I don't know. I was genuinely asking, but I read it as possible. Potable. Well, it's, if it's potable, that means that you can play it. We're potable means that it could go bad. It's also going to be honest with y'all. I heard it about it in the, from the term of like water. First, that's the first time I heard it. So I don't even, I don't even know that. Like I was like, yeah, then you're like, do it. Does this mean that I don't actually know what it means? The water in the pot. Yeah. Like to boil. I don't know what I'm so confused. No, this water's not potable. You can't, this is, you can't put this kind in a pot. Like if you like Mexican tap water, not potable. Not potable. Yeah. Yeah. It's, it's safe and clean for people to drink. That's potable. Potable water.

15:58You guys say divisive or divisive. divisive. divisive. divisive. divisive. Like I had a funny one. Do you, when you say Costco, do you say Costco or do you say Costco? Then you drop the tea. Drop the tea. Yeah, everybody drops the tea, right? Like that was something recently with the front. We're discussing with friends. I don't like when people say ex-specialy or ex-spresso. Yeah, I don't like, I don't like any of that. Ex-presso is wrong. Yeah. Yeah, it's ex-specialy. Oh yeah. I had it. I had it. Take care. Pumpkin. That's shit makes me so, I hate it. We, the, the, the equipment guy with the clippers for the longest time. Not for long time. We'd say it all the time and say, and we'd have to explain it to him many times. He wouldn't listen. He wouldn't say extraordinary. He would say extraordinary. Yeah. And I'm like, you understand that it's two different things that you're, like, you get

16:58that you, like, what you're trying to say, you're saying almost the opposite. Like, we're getting that just people are weird with this. Extra ordinary. Extra ordinary. And I was like, it's extremely regular. They're being regular. Yeah, that's what we're trying to say to him. So it's like, this is more than normally regular. I'm pretty sure I'm sure an extraordinary game. I'm pretty sure I shared this before, but my, if I was ever going to have, like, my own show with my friend, it would be called highly mediocre because it's like, you know, the cost is really like extremely mediocre at something. And I feel like that's like my existence is like, I'm just like extremely good at being very mediocre at, like, all soft skills and all skills in general. Every sport. I played every sport under the sun, but was like, vehemently mediocre at all of them, you know, so I feel that. Yeah. I can play every sport and just, just very, very average at all of them.

17:59Highly, you might say. Yeah, highly mediocre. I feel like that's a great podcast game. I think that's sitting there. You need to, you need to, you need to make a website right now. I know. I need to like get the handle. Get the handle. I mean, everything right now, you need to make it, you need to put that on Spotify so that you have the title. And it's just talking about how, how it is to be mediocre and like at a different thing every single week, you know, it's like, I live a sea average life. Yeah, like, yeah, maybe even, you know, I like the sea plus. I like the sea plus. Highly mediocre. Yeah, like, yeah, yeah. Highly mediocre is perfect. Yeah. And the plus is the, the operative part there. I'm okay with extra ordinary, Ma. I hate to, I hate to do that to you, but that one, that one's okay to me. It's a play on what do you mean, though? Like, that's one more story.

18:59That's what it, that's what it's extraordinary. Yeah, like putting a space between it or. It's how it's spelled and that's, and it means the same thing. Yeah, but. But, like, people say extraordinary, like, like, there's no way. But what does it mean? It means regular, like extra ordinary, like beyond ordinary above. That should be ordinary plus. Ordinary plus. That's my subscription service. No, extraordinary. It's supposed to be good, right? It is. Yeah. So it's not ordinary. Yeah. It's not extraordinary. It's just ordinary, but more ordinary. But even more ordinary than ordinary, like, it's not even more ordinary. It's like, it's like below regular. No, but it's very unusual. It's beyond ordinary. It's extra.

20:01But isn't it one or? No, yeah, but it's not trying to convey, though. He's not conveying its extra ordinary. He's saying it's extremely ordinary. He's not trying to convey that. He's trying to say the opposite. Well, it's extreme. So it's, so it's his use. It's his use, not his pronunciation is what you're telling me. Well, I'm saying, like, if you're saying extraordinary, you're saying it's because that's what you want to say. But when he's saying it's the same way into which we would say extraordinary. Like that's the way he is saying that word. That's the thing that's so odd. That would bother me. It bothered all of us. And we all corrected it. Never changed. All right. He's stuck in his ways. I hope one day he uses to be ordinary. He wants to be extraordinary and is used to be extraordinary. Yeah, sure. Sure. No, it's not buying this at all. What was that?

21:01No. How about it? That's your jail snack, though. I've been thinking about it since Katie mentioned jail snacks. The thing is, is it only to one's in the commentary? Is it things that can only actually get in jail? I don't know those though. I've never been to jail. I don't know what you've never visited any prison. No. I quit popcorn. I quit popular one. I did have an ex who did not have his life together that I put money in his time or yeah. But I have no idea what the options were. It's like standard vending machines. But I feel like there's a Japanese vending machine or a vending machine that I went to high school. That's exotic. You know, like a high school vending machine from when we were in high school. What's in vending machines now? What was the last time you guys saw a vending machine?

22:01Because the last time I saw a vending, I've only seen drink vending machines in the last five years, I think. Oh, I see him. Oh, is it a Midwest thing? I mean, if we're talking about vending machine beef jerky. See, I thought when you said it this way, I thought you were saying like the the beagle activists get arrested. Yeah. And so they do a snack run and they could like everybody. Yeah, because jail isn't that strict, right? Like, especially the preliminary jail. That's what see that's what I'm, you must be able to bring. You're so innocent. It's so cute. Eat and eat and I love you. Where are you? I was. No, I mean, I mean, I mean, like there's the holding cell, I think is what I was thinking of. I'm not said from milk. Like if you're just. Feel strict. Like it's a little strict. You're so aware. You kick it out. You can't get anything. Yeah, but like if you don't have a phone or you don't have a phone. What I was thinking is that people can just come in and hand you something still like. Like, you always can't bring snacks and.

23:04Yeah. But in the dramas and granted, I'm watching Asian dramas. So I don't know what the American jail system is like. Asian jail less strict. Yeah, but it's like you always have like the guy that gets arrested in the first preliminary jail for corruption. And they always like just borrow their lawyer's phone to call somebody like, you know, is that not a preliminary jail thing? I mean, if it's a mass beagle rescue arrest, yeah, I'd imagine it's a big holding cell. Yeah. And then they can just come in with a bag of groceries and they're like, here's Katie's beef. That's the part that I'm not really. Not that my question is. Yeah, I don't think they're coming in. Like I don't think you get visitors when you're in the holding cell. Oh, like the people who put together these forms have been arrested for this stuff many times. Yeah. I'm not a plan, but also they're at war with the cops. So it's not like they're like, okay, you guys did your arrest. So now it's snack time. Like I don't know.

24:05Snack time. I don't know. Yeah. Yeah. Like in the said, I just said, yeah, they distribute like, oh, here is your cheese and crackers like. Dusty said go to jail. Find out. That's not nice. Dusty don't send it into jail. Don't do that. No. And then we'll have to do a whole free eat and lose sort of protest outside kind of like eating. It turns out it's stricter than I thought. I can't even get gummy bears in here. I thought I could have. Japanese prison has no fennimichines. Yeah. Where's my own? I thought I'd get it on the kitty. This sucks. I don't. I think. Where's my banana milk? Yeah. Beef jerky is probably the best. I'd probably, there's probably the protein bar I like like these go macro protein bars that all have would probably be fine too. But like beef jerky, I think, so you're your best option unless you're working with the vegan dog group.

25:06Well, I was like thinking I'm such a mood eater. So I'll definitely like her about gummy bears is a good option. Like that would probably be my sweet option because you can, you don't have to eat them all at once. You can like, you can push, you can, what is it? You can make it last ration. Yeah, you can make it ration over until you can get your refill. And I like the peanut butter cracker. That's a classic too. Like just because they're high in protein, little circle cookies crackers with the peanut butter. Mm. I don't know. I don't know. The super crumbly ones. They make your own circadian. No. I don't know what you're like. Oh, that's true. Yeah, they're high soda too, like, yeah, of course everything is gonna be. Yeah, me me. This is a crunchy pop tart. This pop tart by. Yeah, I want a protein pop tart. I need my protein, but I also want a sweet. Just bring me a sleeve of Biscoph cookies and I'll be. Yeah.

26:06Maybe maybe. Oh, it's a true. Peanutella heard peanut butter crackers and she's like, hello. Yeah, she's the lowest. What are you talking about the other dog or not me? Yeah. And the one that's got got jealous that peanutella got an appearance. Mm hmm. One jar of protein peanut butter for me. Man peanut butter. One jar. But you're going. That's all I did. You don't have anything to eat it with. No problem. Do it. Do it. You know, I'm, I'm going to adjust to jail quickly. You tensils or things to dip. I'm just going to go straight to the peanut butter. I don't know. I'm going to love our, like, what do we, it's, it's going to suck period. That's kind of, I don't want to get too choosy about it. Right. Be sure to give you some enjoyment. I'm not, I'm not like super into future.

27:08I mean, none of us actually. What a jail. She's just good. We're just saying what you're ideal. I know. You would choose like a prison maybe a major valley. Oh far. Well, I'm trying to think of something that wouldn't be too hard to find. And that also, yeah, I mean, that, that kind of strikes the balance. It's like a little bit of energy, a little bit of save it for later. You got the second piece. You know, I can at least break that snack in half. Yeah. I like a protein bar option, like a sweet one, you know, like a cookie dough or something. So you get like a little, a treat, but you're also getting some energy. Also fueling. Yeah. Sorry. I got this track because I just saw a video of Gary Oldman meeting a airbud. And I don't think I ever would have thought I'd see it. Gary Oldman meeting air bed. Gary Oldman. Yeah. This is your demo. Lock it.

28:08And the thing is you guys are all thinking of like functional snacks. And I'm just like, well, I want something delicious like gummy bears. No, I like gummy bears. I like gummy bears. I'm sure food like make me feel better. I mean, fucking jail. Yeah. I think gummy bears, I could turn into an activity for like hot cheetos. Yes. Do you do the thing where you like chop you bite off the top of one and then you make it a hybrid gummy bear? I'm sorry. You got so happy. You got so happy. She got so happy. She said, you guys do the thing where like this is a no to bugle. So I put them on my finger like a witz, which fingers and suit as they said it's something I keep myself occupied for an hour. I got. Oh, I've occupied myself with gummy bears before. I've started. I spent many a time just having a fun with the old gummy bears. Before we had phones, you know, this is how we entertained ourselves.

29:08We made hybrid gummy bear flavors. Like I'm going to wrap a gusher in a fruit roll up. I used to really like worms. Gummy worms were fun. I never liked gummy bears gummy. I don't like that. I like the kind of twin thing over a gummy worm. I don't think that's twin snake. I love a twin snake and I like a sour gummy worm, the little ones. So these ones are going to peel apart. You keep them together because one sour and one sweet and it really balances. Do you have a brand star and make a name or like haribo? Haribo is the king of gummies. Yes, but they regular stomachs. They put those. I hate gummies that have the white opaque back in. I think that's disgusting. Oh, no, the frogs. I like the frogs. I hate that.

30:08And they started putting that shit in the star mix, which was almost perfect. Oh. It's hard when they ruined it. When there's something that like, you like this is perfect. Yeah. This is exactly what I want. And then when that's like over time, we're going to add an ingredient or we have to swap out an ingredient. And then it immediately changes the dynamic of the entire bag. Because then it loses the value when there is even one thing like it was great value when you like every item in the mix. Right now, there's even then you're having to look through and make sure like we're not overloaded on the cherries or make sure we still got a couple of co-bottles in there. Like, you know, we need a good assortment. The twin snakes must be present. And at least two twin snakes into the star mix for it to be valid. If you ask me. This just happened with Sriracha. Like I just found out I didn't realize like they got into a fight with their. That's the fire. Yeah. And then they started going to Mexico to get the the whole thing.

31:10And it's just not been the same. It's never been the same sense. It has never been the same sense. I know you guys are all concerned to know that. Tobachiko once again has mysteriously disappeared for months. Whoa. The glass bottle. Tobachiko is all all or just the line. All of them. Wow. Everything. Complete shut down. I have two left. Oh no. What are you going to? How are you going to hydrate? I had I had one yesterday and I took a lot of drink. I had a lot of water. I had one yesterday after after like probably at least a couple of months without. And I just lost it. And I had the very satisfying burp. And I'm like, yep, this is it. Like this is what I'm missing in my life is that intense carbonation. Sometimes you just need a good burp sometimes. But the funniest thing is that there's just absolutely no updates. There's no more indication why there's no more.

32:10Like what possibly be like a bond? Terri. Terri. Terri. I mean, maybe. But like there's I guess they're still making like the slim can ones. Yeah, it might be from the US. Because you can find the canned ones everywhere. At least here. That's my answer. That's my answer for almost every time I can't find anything. It's tariffs or or or guess prices or so. So we can't get this. Yeah. That's all just my answer. Just derfs. Tragic. All right. We got some dill or no dills to get to. But first, Bonk's adventure wants to know how much popcorn do you think a competitive eater could eat before being full? Ooh. Entire a lot of trash bags to trash bags. It's a lot. Trash bags. Because like normal people can do like a couple buckets.

33:13Yeah. You're in a movie. I think this is this has to be a time limit. Yeah. Yeah. It has. During the Odyssey. A three hour popcorn challenge. 10 buckets. You know how like. When you're eating when you're competitively eating like a steak. There's a people who just rip it off and like swallow it without chewing itself. What is the shortcut for popcorn? That's tough because of the tech. You get it wet to make it a little. But that's not your hot dogs. Yeah, that is what they do with the hot dogs. That has to stock you it up. By the way, by the way. That shouldn't count. That's not how you eat that that's not how you shouldn't be able to dip the bread in water and eat and then the hot. No, you have to eat the hot dog. Yeah, it's not a hot dog. Or you eat a hot dog. So I think that part's kind of bullshit.

34:13Yeah. And I think the contest in general are discussing but like. It's a fucking cheating every time. Agreed. Agreed. It's just we should eat it as it was intended to be eaten. Yeah, that's real skill. That's real skill. Yeah, you need to eat the popcorn by the fistful. You can't soak it. You got to just crunch it up. Old school. Yeah, I think you get to drink soda or anything during it or you. Just. That's the other factor is. Because when you get that like one little kernel that's kind of like feels like it's stuck on your. It's just too far back to reach without. It's gagging yourself. Pure. It's pure. It's pure. Jesus Christ. Arthur Mueller says the joy chestnut. A thousand ounces of popcorn in eight minutes. 63 pounds of popcorn. Like I mean, what's a garbage bag of popcorn?

35:16Two pounds. Wait, hold on. Hold on. Are we talking volume ounces? We're talking about volume ounces. Not weight ounces though. Yeah, I don't think that that's. Yeah, we pound. Popcorn weighs nothing. So it must mean like the ounces of like a bucket. Yeah, of popcorn. It's a like above ground swimming pool of popcorn. How many popcorn eating world record? I mean, do we watch this? Do we want to watch this? No, what's a large bucket of popcorn at the movies? How many ounces? 42 servings of 24 ounce bags. Popcorn. Roughly five roughly five to seven pounds of popcorn total. Popcorn bucket size. The standard large theater bucket size is 170 ounces. But that's the AI overview. I didn't bet it. Yeah, I mean, this is just like big, handful swallow,

36:18and we're shoveling it into his mouth. And the question everyone's asking I would think is why? Because it's competitive eating. Because they eat everything, dude, because these guys just. This is just America, right? Other countries don't do shit like this, dude. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. The last thing for the longest, yeah. Until until we grew homegrown chestnut. And we grew up in a year or. Yeah. Worldwide worldwide worldwide. So it is a world. Yeah, yeah. Like using that word. A world event. Act to yeah. There's this. There's this girl. I follow on Instagram. She's like a Chinese influencer. A Chinese American, I think. But she like does the eating contest. And it's like insane watching her eat like a 10 pound. And like, can they just.

37:18Can they just. Can they just see? I want to know what their normal meal looks like when they eat. Yeah, they must be training like their average meal. Like, yeah, like I. I would never want to have meal with Joey chestnut. Because I just feel like. I wouldn't be as flimmer. No, dude, that dude's farts have to be like out of this world. But, but like at some point your body regulates to it. Cause like you were you were thinking it based. I mean, I think he's I think he's operating with an entirely different plumbing system than. Yeah, that's true. He's probably I mean, as fucked up as it is, I think his body is training for this. So he's my, he might be prepared. You never know. But yeah, I wouldn't want to be anywhere near him after a. You know, a match day essentially. Oh, no, I can't even when he's training, even when he's leading up to it. Is he married?

38:19Probably some. Married him. That's my husband out there. You know, those hot dogs. Not married. Not married. Figure somebody would for just fame adjacent. I'm supposed to have long time girlfriend girlfriend, girlfriend, girlfriend. In 2014, they split up in 2015. That's it. That has. So in the last 11 years, my man has been unencumbered by relationships, you know. Can't have it holding back. Yeah. I mean, the training schedule is rigorous. There's no time for love. It's just like constant training in between competitions. Because it's probably a competition like every six weeks or something, right? And if you let your stomach like, yeah, you can't let it shrink back down to size. So you just have to, I think it's like a constant because it's like, that's what, like the mukbang influencers do.

39:24It's like, they're just like, they're like eating eight hours a day and like on the treadmill eight hour, they're like, wait training eight hours a day. Is the only way to like keep it like metabolized? How much are they making? Like, is it worth it? I just. Remember, I was told about the people jelly bean or something who was like drinking like she would drink like a cup of like raising cane sauce. She would just eat like huge Taco Bell meals and people loved it. It was so upsetting. I don't know. I don't understand that. I don't know. Anybody eat until those videos are dangerous just off that alone because like I'll stab my ears like before I listen to somebody chew. He makes about 500 grand a year and most of it is from brand deals. Yeah. Not winning. And what are his expenses? Because when you're training, I mean, are you, I guess maybe if you're sponsored by Oscar Meyer or some shit, you know, maybe they're giving you free.

40:25Yeah, hopefully you're getting sponsored by people who get like like that. What is the, what is the, like bacon for the rest of your life from the butcher box? Yep. That's a scam. Yeah, just butcher box Joey Chestnut. That's a great partnership right there. Do you want to cook at home? No, I just want to shovel as much cooked ground beef into my mouth. Well, that's why it's like Nathan's hot dogs probably supplies him because it's so important for them to have him at their hot dog eating. It's only 10 grand to win that. It's so dumb. That's trash. That's nothing. That's like, I feel like it was maybe 10 grand. Like when it's inception and that was a big deal of then, but it just hasn't like. And they don't need to bring that one. Yeah. One was it in septic. One was the first hot dog eating contest. The Nathan's hot dog eating contest. It was honestly like a thousand. I'll tell you that in a second. Yeah. But I will tell you that Joey Chestnut entered the competitive eating scene in 2005 with a breakout performance in the deep fried asparagus championship performance.

41:32Yeah. It was it put the world on notice when he ate six pounds of asparagus in 11 and a half minutes. That's the first time I've heard of fried asparagus and I'm from Arkansas where we try everything. I've never heard of fried asparagus. I've never heard of fried asparagus. Hot dog eating contest. I've known fried asparagus. I think I want to know when it started and why 72 mo 19 72. They just had a bunch of extra pagan testines line around. They're like, I got an idea. Boys, we're having a contest. And Japanese contestants dominated the late 90s and early 2000s. I mean, I think it probably didn't become like an event, you know, like a televised. Yeah. It was definitely like a niche like thing that just happened on Coney Island, right? Until the late 90s. I think it was probably like your dad might enter in the hot dog eating contest. Your dad.

42:32You're not a hot dog eating contest. My dad would. Your dad loves a hot dog. It's true. He does. He does. He does. He does. He does. He does. He does. And in other news, there's a gentleman named Jordan pointer on LinkedIn. Okay. Who wrote a massive article about Topo Chico shortage. Oh, you're. This is, this is true. You need to connect. Have you. Have you. I mean, you need to request a connect. This is your burner account, maize. This is your, this is your guy, maize. I should. I mean, this guy, this guy wrote a log article. So like, like what, like a 10 minute read, like. I mean, it's what the problem is is that it's a lot of like one line paragraphs. And then double space. Formatting. Yeah. So. Yeah. I, we all went to college in real papers.

43:32But the gist of it is that 24 points back in February. And I, I also looked up this article. So he's not alone. But back in February, they said that the, the flagship product in glass bottles is temporarily unavailable in the United States because of facility upgrades at the water source and production facilities in Mexico. Brace yourself for a shortage that can stretch into the summer. So we're going on month seven. So do you think that? Wait, so when was the last time you actually saw them? But this is the ongoing for years. Or I guess because they needed to upgrade the. The shortage, the previous shortage was something else. That was, I think, a local thing. Oh, okay. Personally, this is like, there are none. I probably last purchased in like March or April or something. Wow. Oh, you've been really. I haven't been drinking them at all. I just have two left.

44:33It's just like one may really need to burp finally opens one. Is it just a cloud? So what's the. Or you flavored what's the occasion for one you're going to have? What's the. Something you're going to mean something to take the edge off. Yeah, yesterday I was just like, fuck it. I want one. No, that's crack. That's what I'm down to, too. I'm not touching those. First tranquilizer. I'm not touching those until I see another case. Like that's. No, are they going for. Hi. Are they like, I don't think so. I think everybody was blindsided by this. If my guy, Jordan pointer, who was talking about going to bars and gas stations, trying to find it. In all of Charleston. Yeah, that's not my blue it Walmart. No, everything. Well, everything's. You have everything. Katie, if you know deep.

45:34I opened it for you. Oreos. I checked. Okay. So only Emily got those out of the. But I did see these. They were. They were at the store. The video mashup. It was like a late night taco. And maybe like a spicy chimichurri. Okay. It sounded. Fonsored by F1. Get some. Hmm. These look. These look interesting. Okay. F1 head to head. Chimichurri lime. Late night taco Doritos. Yeah. Okay. Good to know. May. What would you pay for Katie to buy if she has the. The top of Chico. Oh my god. But you know. I wouldn't be surprised. Really. You know what? Yeah, I like to ship it to you. What's the. I mean, I don't think she does.

46:35But if she was a friend. Uh, I. What it. Let's stop there. He was a friend. He's my friend. I would. If she went to the Walmart, Face value in 16 bucks or whatever it is and then shipping that is probably expensive because it's heavy I obviously cover shipping right yeah, and then I probably I'd probably top you off with 20 bucks I don't know what is that like I was thinking yes an extra It is gonna kill you yeah, yes, yes But I'd consider it. I mean, but I don't think they're there. I think there is gone man. I don't think they exist

47:48Addiction, contradiction, opinion, motivation, coralie, Valérie, Jessica, Amanda, Amillie, a million, dormir, sentir Conresseur, computer, ethaseur, ethaseur Bechiff, fantasmé, fantasmusumé Grand politique, belitique Okay, now let's get into some killer no-dils now we've solved the popcorn situation once and for all and And first on the list is Which horn dog? You got to ring these four corn dogs Reincord dogs, okay back there. I mean hot Cheeto dog. I

48:49Brom in the picture ramen noodle dog Krispy corn dog rolled in panko and classic Korean corn dog combination of sweet and savory and then I guess you're real wild card option here is you can go Beef hot dog filling mozzarella filling or half and half these are allies Mo Yeah, I'm in I'm in This might be an upset for I've never had a corn dog Because they're usually pork is that why? So I mean sometimes it's just this poor like I like a hot dog, but I've never gone out of my way to have a Like you can really only get them at like the fair or like an amusement park like Keeps them ready I used to be obsessed with the foster farms frozen Yeah, we're talking about like I can get them at like the U.S.C. football game

49:49But I don't know if I can get a good game. Okay. I get yeah, I forgot that they have a mass sporting event I don't know. We go back to the pancake sausage. Yeah, I was a nanny. I Would fuck those up Wait, maize. How long did I take you to go through a case of those back in the day when I was like nine? Yeah We use a competitive foodie. That's pretty solid. It's like he's I'd probably put down Two or a couple of times in a meal. Yeah, and like two or three meals in a week That's a pop of maize question, but yeah, then they were turkey dogs. Let us know Walter. They were turkey hot dogs And it was it was it's all I wanted I just wanted that and Annie's back in cheese Yeah, I was actually about to make a comment about Annie's mac and cheese and you be we do it I had Annie shapes this week How was the new question about? They're fronting their cron they're not they're not noodles cooked there like there's like a room a noodle snack that it's like kind of like crumbled

50:53Raman noodles after they've already been like fried in season. It says rolled in crunch ramen noodles So they're taking the batter and then they're It's like yeah, they're being it in the noodles that one's last for me. I don't like I think it's too crunchy to go with the corn dog Like that's like it's too much of a textured difference and and to be honest I hate to do this to my own people, but The ramen snacks are a little overrated like they were great I thought they were the most genius thing ever when I was eight, but they don't hold up over time like I just eat them now and I'm like I thought this was better when I was eight, you know, and I discovered them But I don't know they don't hold up I feel You know, I wish for the half and half it was like you know I've been trying to get to that for quite a while. It's so weird that it's like half half mozzarella than just like just Yeah, it looks like a

51:53Tidy hot dog wearing a huge chef's hat I'm like why is there a lip gloss on the bottom? My chapsticks looking a little weird this Covered out of it What does this look like the crispy is first for me and then yeah, I was gonna go as you go panko one classic to Laman hot three I'm struggling though because like I think sometimes I'll really want the flamin hot Cheeto one and then I would want that It's like what I know that the classic is gonna work the classic is good. Yeah, the classic is like I mean, treat guy the panko. I want to check that out. I like the crispy one the best. Yeah I think I'm Chris. I'm gonna go with the panko. I'm in flamin Chris be classic. I'm fast like Faman Raymond. You don't like you don't like flamin No, I've kind of with I think I'm with Katie and that I'm not a flaming hot Cheeto's person. So I love I'm a I'm a flasher flamin. I was waiting

52:58I would have a flamin hot Cheeto. I will eat a lot. Oh, wait a bag I just just like see it and said flamin and Raymond It's a flamin hot and it's like a Raymond noodle soup Wow, I'm really like flamin hot Cheeto's themselves I think people have been doing too much with them in the recent years where they try to make everything like flamin hot Cheeto's version Like I actually don't think it's that good when it's made into other stuff. It's just good on its own That's like feel like I don't even like if I'm being honest I don't like the flamin hot puff as much as just the regular one either But it's it's similar to the the ramen. It's I think it's a regular dog rolled in Yeah, it is it is it is yeah So that it's not like they're trying to make the batter out of Cheeto. No, yeah, it's it's rolled in flamin hot Cheeto My only remaining question for this is if it's whole mozzarella inside and not a hot dog does that change your order or does that change your answer in any way?

54:02I Don't think so for me I think you would the I think the classic corn dog thing would be last because I don't feel like you kind of want a little more That's true crunch. Yeah I think I might go flamin hot one if it's just mozzarella That does kind of sound fire actually But I don't I don't want just mozzarella and I don't even know if I want that half I want a hot dog I'm actually looking to see if I can get a hot dog from Uber Eats I mean of like one of the corn dogs is what I mean. Yeah, I love that Korean corn dog There you go crispy corn dog All right, and now we've had this one before sorry What makes more different? Um, the batter is different than then like the classic corn batter from like America Americana style like it's it's just a little different a chewier. I think maybe they use rice flour

55:02I don't don't quote me on that, but the texture is it's like you know the corn dog is like almost a little spongy because it's like corn bread Um, it's it's more yeah, it has a little bit more bounce to the fight like it's chewier is is the main difference I'm gonna have to do some research I think yeah, they're really good Oh We've done this cookie dough waffle before but it's back. I'm very interested Give me ten of them. Yeah, I will You want breakfast every day breakfast and dessert every day Also on the menu at another broken egg cafe is the pumpkin crunch waffle No, I don't like them. Yeah Spice well, I'll give it a go. I like it batter or butter. Sorry. She's cake butter And then finally is the apple pie pancakes I don't want Too too busy I don't I don't know if it's a photo or what it's too busy for me. I don't not as it is

56:03I don't like a lot of nuts Yeah, I don't like apple pie and informs other than apple pie if that makes sense right as much you layered with roasted applesauz I don't I like applesauz my not want it warm And I don't want it with crazy and cinnamon apples. There's too many adjectives on apples and graham cracker crunch I also don't I don't need this at all. No, the cookie dough one is the winner. I would try the pumpkin one Um, by the way, this does say it is crunchy rice batter on On this hot dog place that I'm looking at crunchy Korean hot dogs. Yeah Next up is dill and o' dill on course light beer cheese cheese. It's available at Katie's Walmart Yeah, I saw these at woodman's actually I'm not kidding there on an end cap Um, I don't really love a beer cheese. That's not what I might you're not you're not trying. What was it? Mimosa. Mimosa beer cheese. Mammal

57:07Mammal I like them. I don't mind it in specific settings But I don't crave it or anything because it's kind of bitter right like it's a little Sharp and a little bitter. Yeah, I don't I don't I don't want to be sharply and a little I love a cheese it just I'll take a regular cheese it maybe even Chosey. I like the white cheddar Mm-hmm. Yes, also, I don't you know if I'm gonna have beer cheese. I don't want course light Oh It's course light beer cheese also. It's not even like it's not even like a good hard-eat dark beer from beer cheese Oh, no consider not gonna it's cheese it. They're not gonna use like this is it and if my cheese it Glows blue because it's cold Hmm then then I'm gonna be back in am I supposed to put my cheese it's in the fridge? Yeah, I was like doing my Cheezers of the first what's supposed to happen here the mountains on my cheese it They're not ready yet put them back in

58:09All right next up is the Lemon pepper wing teeny a lemon drop martini with lemon pepper rim and garnished with a honey lemon pepper wing And by garnished I mean they plopped don't No It's disgusting. Yeah, because you're gonna lose all of the the nice texture of the outside of the chicken wing Because it's just sitting in the lemon drop. Yeah, that's definitely now if you serve the wing on the side Yeah, I could be in if it was served on the side. There's no need to put the wing on the glass Terrible in the glass. Yeah, also you think they're just doing that for the photos and that they actually don't And the picture they make it look like oh no, we're just it's a garnish like a lemon wheel As if the one is like bonk The one the low glass. It's like they're trying to rest it on top with the the stick through the middle

59:10But it's yeah fat. So it's like not even down with the stick part And I don't want those things dripping. I don't want stuff dripping into my drink. It's still a sweet drink in it I was gonna say I don't want chicken pepper rim I don't want the chicken in my lemon Yeah, and I don't want a sweet drink on my wing Also, you know that these chicken wings were all made at one time. Yeah, they're just sitting there ready Yeah, until someone orders Like it's like it's like do you think they're be heating them in the air fryer or like I'm imagining a heat lamp eaten Oh And then you plop it right in your drink. So this is Maybe they redo it every time someone or they just like pull In one extra lemon pepper wing when everyone's someone orders a batch of lemon pepper wing one wing in the fryer That's it. One at a time. That's a fish one one. Yeah, I have another issue multiple Types of glassware. Excuse me. I'm kind of confused too. Yeah, you can go higher

1:00:14You can go low. So this is this is perfect for a here's the science. This is a here's the science And take note of this Where is this you check this out Uh, I don't know. This seems like it was taken in IRL Yeah, yeah, who sent this and we've got no restaurant branding on this uh insert here, you know This was The genius idea. Okay, so somewhere in the Midwest. I think that's chips This is right. I'm not a wing teeny and it looks like they have a jaws drink on the menu in the back Now that I'd like to know more about interesting Yeah, that could be interesting. Let us know so chip. Let us know where you found this and what's up with that jaws drink Okay, next up is craft mac and cheese restaurant edition. We've got three flavors here

1:01:21We've got The Monterrey Jack Carmelized Onion We've got the Romano Cachio Pepe And we've got the Parmesan Pesto Honestly, Dill for everything I'm trying it all but do you know the carmelized onion is good in a powder form Surely not but I'll give I'll give it a shot because I was gonna say I think I'm not caramelized anymore Eden It's the Parmesan Pesto is the most appealing to me Do you think that caramelized it freeze dried it and then ground it into powder? I think they probably just use onion powder Yeah, and added like Wow, sugar flavoring or something, you know The Cachio and Pepe I'm sure will work that one seems pretty yeah I think that and the Pesto are pretty easy Pesto is so easy to do anyways I don't want to tell you that they're 289 a box does that make it more appealing or less appealing to you? It's about right the same

1:02:23How much does it go for now? They used to be a dollar a box right but now inflation is the I got my Annie shapes two for four last week on special Wow, okay, perfect so about right then Um, I'm gonna say no to the jack caramelized onion one. I don't think that's a no deal for me That's a deal on the coccio I think I think the Cachio Pepe one is the most interesting I love Pesto that doesn't look like good Pesto I'm also a little confused because like how is Pesto gonna be in powder form like does Pesto powder? It'd be fine I mean, it's just dried up basil and and yeah, it's just not and and garlic like it's not gonna be It's best to not look into the science behind Yeah Yeah, I'm really like how do I get the Pesto into a powder form? As you know, Eden most Pesto is made by adding copious amounts of butter to it

1:03:25true She didn't have as many questions about the clear chicken but you know the box Pesto What's because she's a scientist, you know she won't we understand the things we can become clear um Also, I guess I should note for the the people at home that we've got three different pastas Attached to these Corn wise onion is kava topi which is a classic The Ramana Kachio Pepe is a pipette de pasta, which is kind of like the chunky shell You don't see that one and then the jamelli is like the it's kind of like the twin snakes honestly You just know this one you know these noodles off the top of your head. I'm reading the box. Oh I'm so impressed. I was like oh my god How do you know these noodles? Of course, I'm of course. I'm a quarter Italian Kava topi is an easy one although those are like

1:04:27Short third of a Kava topi they cut them a little short Probably optimize Optimize it for the box packaging Optimize it for the mac and cheese element yes indeed uh I was a sucker for like the The deluxe the craft deluxe So that you need the luck that they have the cheese and the the foil patch yeah So the sauce that's not a powder right Yeah, so maybe that's what we're dealing with here Eden is we're dealing with the it's not a powder box It's the foil pack I would be more into that I think I would that would change a lot of things for me if I'm being honest Because do you know that vacuum seal like packaging has come such a long way in the last I don't know how many years but like you if you have good processing It's like safe to if you could just if it goes straight into the vacuum seal It has no chance to oxidize no chance to go bad That's science craft used to do a boxed Alfredo that you know just like lose Alfredo from your mind when you approach it

1:05:33But in I believe they use twisty noodles too And it was good and I still look for it sometimes oh it's not available anymore It feels almost more like a Parmesan white cheddar kind of situation, but I am okay with that that sounds amazing That sounds amazing And if you haven't don't sleep on the Cheetos mac and cheese because that's Really I couldn't get over the color. I couldn't get over the color. It's bright. It's John To right orange. Oh, it's now I make other mac and cheese. I'm like god these it's not orange and not james are just really quite literally paling in comparison You know what I learned last week Yeah, have you seen that that Or a cover that other brand goodles? Yeah, I think you know that it's owned by Gal Gadot. Yes, I did oh I did not know that

1:06:33The noodles go May it may fail miserably over and over May it be banished from once it came they were just expensive mac and they were just expensive You weren't that good. I'm trying the the ketchup Pepe and then I'm considering moving on to the past If I have a good experience with the ketchup Pepe If I see I'm giving it a go and reporting back Yeah, okay good to know Next up is a Panera peanut butter and jelly cookie No, which is stuffed where the jelly is inside like a jelly donut No, I hate that I hate a fruit filling And I love a peanut butter and jelly But so it's like basically a simple doodle with a peanut butter and jelly in it or a peanut butter cookie with jelly in it

1:07:37I mean, I'm wondering how Seeds in it it looks gritty and gross I'm wondering how crispy this cookie is yeah, it's soft. It's a soft cookie for Soft cookie and it looks like the the jelly is in the center and the peanut butter is kind of forming Really distributed. Yeah, I'm out the distro is not I'm not super interested in this situation Plus I never go to panera. So yeah, I don't It's so expensive now. It's like actually criminal also a cup of soup is like $10 So that's a product photo and I bet they don't look like that So yeah, they probably look And I'm trying to find a price here 499 these are fine like we don't have to keep making new ones. We have plenty of good cookies I Think I can't I mostly agree like when was the last time I had a life-changing

1:08:39It's probably mostly that you're trying a cookie that you hadn't had before I've never seen before then they've invented a new one I like the kitchen sink cookie from milk bar if anyone has had that it's quite good That's just more one that's got like some pretzels on it. It's like that's it which has like everything right Well, yeah, like with like Reese's Caramel I like a macadamia nut, but I hate white chocolate and so for years I found that macadamia nuts because I always associated it with white chocolate turns out a wonderful nut Oh, it's incredible. You can't get him you never have you ever seen him with chocolate or dark chocolate I've never seen that yet Or no, what is it's never mind. Sorry.

It's a bar like it's a okay It's the one I think Jamie uses that bit it's like that he it's like it looks like a brick It's not as thick but like it looks like that it's seven ounces Okay, oh different different than what I was talking about because Jamie uses a chocolate from trader Joe's like a baking bar Oh, you're talking about the huge one They have one that's like a pound Right Yeah, yeah, like when she When I am text when I'm saying I'm going to trader Joe's and I'm told She chops it up nice Get a hammer man.

Well, that's that's possible though I just Yeah, just like little tiny like yeah, like little tiny chicken bites chicken finger chicken fries. Yeah, those are crispy

1:12:54All right, the Irish got something right. I'm a big fan of loaded fries like most loaded fries you can't go wrong with For me it depends on the ingredients and the distribution because for a lot of times I feel like you're not getting getting enough cheese or sauce. Yeah, yeah, and some like the fries on the bottom will be dry Yeah, or the ingredients are too big to really be accommodated are you like chopped like cutting everything up and taking bites? How are you approaching these you know Yeah, or eating them like you would eat regular fries I mean, I think you're you're forking it But I've kind of gone away from the loaded fries crazy. I just want my fries to be fries And I want The other stuff elsewhere. I mean like it's you know the poutine Experiences like fun from a novelty thing, but I'd rather just Pick up some fries with my hands I shared this last week Go ahead mo

I'm in yeah Like let's go like it's not you are still getting like eat and said though that bottom layer that's just ingredientless essentially Then you know I kind of look like this is this is plated, but it says that you're supposed to just literally throw this in a bag and shake it up Oh, I don't know I feel about that Now that I feel good about and then I'm and then you dump it back on the plate and everything is nicely coated. I'm into that I don't mind to shake it up, you know I don't want to have to shake it myself, but if someone else

1:14:54Here we go with the privilege I don't do it anymore Bounce and adventure is a bit of proper country is in the back soggy as luck make foundation society I'm making them just single complete single layer so that That is the way to go And so much cheese like so much cheese and then I make this like creamy cilantro sauce to that kind of drizzle over it Chicken nachos is what I've been doing the worst thing about nachos is when you get the dry chip Terrible I Kind of feel like that's the perfect opportunity though of like okay now I can load up stuff on the ship true true What if it's almost like a plane separated? Then I just put that chip on top and then I'm eating it there are ways around it

1:15:55It's a pain point not as resolvable, but yeah, it is a it is a blank canvas Now it's an opportunity for me Yeah, that's the way to go in there layering because I don't want one chip that's super soggy that has way too much stuff on it Mm-hmm, and I also don't want a bear naked What are we talking about? Chips still pound plus I want them all properly dressed Uniform We're all wearing the same thing. I don't want one person just wearing socks.
