The Teachers discuss the soft opening of the restaurant and mic up Bill as he waits tables.

Unknown Speaker #1

Well, guys, I think we're making some progress on the stink behind the restaurant. You know how out by the dumpsters there's been that stink that we couldn't get rid of

Unknown Speaker #2

no matter what? We pour bleach on it. We pour oil on it. We did everything.

Unknown Speaker #1

It's tough to get out, but I buffed all night last night. I also flamed it. You know what I mean? So it should be better. If you guys want to go back there and take

Unknown Speaker #3

a sniff. Well, you guys know, thanks for the parking spot, by the way, but I don't love the location.

Unknown Speaker #1

It's the closest one to the door. I know. And I was just going to say, I walked in through the back, obviously.

Unknown Speaker #4

Give a mouse a cookie.

Unknown Speaker #2

Give a mouse a cookie. Complaining. You get the nice spot, of course, by the dumpster. By the stink. You want to be close or do you want your spot to not stink?

Unknown Speaker #1

I think we went with convenience over making sense for a lot of this. So the dumpster and your parking spot are right at the front door. Yeah. Because we

Unknown Speaker #2

didn't want to have a long walk to the trash can. Unfortunately, you keep valeting the dumpster.

Unknown Speaker #1

What do you mean, unfortunately? Where else are we supposed to do it? Did I say unfortunately? You did. Oh, sorry. Sorry.

Unknown Speaker #2

With fortune. God, we can valet with much, much fortune. We can valet.

Unknown Speaker #1

That's what I'm talking about. With a dumpster. I knew it was good to pay extra for that dumpster with a steering wheel. I knew it was good. Oh, and I like that you chopped

Unknown Speaker #2

the top of it. It's convertible now. We took it to the beach the other day.

Unknown Speaker #3

ladies weren't loving

Unknown Speaker #1

The

us. Well,

Unknown Speaker #3

but who was? The seagulls. The seagulls were going nuts. The seagulls were going nuts. The seagulls were going nuts. I'll take 20 seagulls over one woman any day.

Unknown Speaker #2

Absolutely. We left the beach

Unknown Speaker #3

with

Unknown Speaker #2

40 seagulls in tow.

Unknown Speaker #5

Which, hey, yeah, yeah. We did.

Unknown Speaker #2

Oh, yeah. And we whined and dined them on bread, bread,

Unknown Speaker #1

bread, bread. Dude,

Unknown Speaker #5

Sunday was like a movie. Oh, no. Oh, 20 seagulls per guy.

Unknown Speaker #2

Full montage. In the Santa Monica Beach pier,

Unknown Speaker #5

scrounging for trash. And we play in Flock of Seagulls when we're driving

Unknown Speaker #4

Oh, yeah. You know we are. Yeah. And we are kings with a movie. Just every fellow we walk by doing the sunglasses like.

Unknown Speaker #6

around.

Unknown Speaker #1

Yeah. Oh, my God.

Unknown Speaker #4

You should have seen us cruise through Beverly Hills the other day, 40 seagulls flying behind the car.

Unknown Speaker #7

Unbelievable. Jealousy. Oh, yeah. And they wouldn't park too close to us because they know they were getting scatted on all day and they weren't going to park

Unknown Speaker #2

too close to us. Well, we know when one of us comes in and we're covered in white doo -doo, we've had the night of our lives. Hey, it's the Walk of Shame.

Unknown Speaker #6

listen. You come in,

Unknown Speaker #1

Oh,

you're absolutely ghosted out. Full crusto. We're like,

Unknown Speaker #6

somebody had a good night. I don't know what you

Unknown Speaker #7

heard about me. Okay. But

Unknown Speaker #2

I'm a

Unknown Speaker #7

motherfucking

Unknown Speaker #2

P -I -N -P. Big pimping this weekend with us and the seagulls. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker #3

Big pimping. But to get back to the stink, Sam, it's not getting better. It's getting better. I think. It's getting better. I think we're just getting used to it.

Unknown Speaker #1

Well, I am putting at least. I know it's not getting better. I know it's not

Unknown Speaker #3

getting better. He's not crazy. I'm not getting better.

Unknown Speaker #1

But I am putting a lot of baking soda on top

Unknown Speaker #3

of it. Yeah. And so that is. It's a mask. It's a mask. Yeah. Yeah. A

Unknown Speaker #2

of sorts.

Unknown Speaker #1

muting mask

Unknown Speaker #3

Which, by the way, thank you for the

Unknown Speaker #2

birthday gift as well. Oh, yeah. I mean, not to go back, but it

Unknown Speaker #1

is so hard to make the dumpster stink when we want to attract seagulls to date us. Yeah. It's kind of like pick your poison. Yeah. Either we have a clean dumpster and a successful restaurant. Or we're the happiest guys in

Unknown Speaker #4

town.

Unknown Speaker #1

Happiest and coolest.

Unknown Speaker #6

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah. But it's just, I think if we want to like grow or make it a pleasant experience to come in, I think we should do something about it. I'd consider even building some sort of tunnel or something like, you know, that we can.

Unknown Speaker #2

Oh, and avoid a dumpster tunnel to

Unknown Speaker #4

avoid stink. Yes. This is a really good idea. Yeah. So this would be what? The dumpster is in the tunnel or you take the tunnel underground to the

Unknown Speaker #3

restaurant so we don't have to smell the stink. Yeah. We kind of go from

Unknown Speaker #1

parking lot to into the restaurant around the stink. It could be kind of like when you're camping in the snow. You got to dig a little hole for all the cold air to go down into. Maybe we dig a stink hole.

Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker #1

That's great. Oh. I mean, we should try something.

Unknown Speaker #2

It sucks the stink down. You camp right next to the dumpster, but all the stink is going down a little hole. Do you think and good air rises? I hope so. Yeah. It must. But then we

Unknown Speaker #1

might have to ice down the dumpster to make the stink sink.

Unknown Speaker #2

Right. So let's put the dumpster on ice to get the stink to sink into the hole. Yeah. That'd

Unknown Speaker #3

be good. And then we'll. Okay. Yeah. We'll see. But anyway, we should probably get this episode rolling. Uh, welcome to the teacher's on folks. Used to be the first best and only podcast pertaining to issues relevant to the Hamilton high school community. But now, of course, your favorite four

Unknown Speaker #4

teachers have started a restaurant and we are having a blast. I, of course, am Howard Levis, uh, new, new to the bartending game, getting a handle on flair. Uh,

of, uh, the, uh, the, the bartending tricks. Just learn the recipes, Howard.

Unknown Speaker #3

the sort

I just learn the recipes. You don't have to add flips and tricks. Well, you want people, people can get a beer anywhere, but, but you want to sort of give them a show

Unknown Speaker #1

at the same time. But you're supposed to flip the bottles around.

Unknown Speaker #3

You're supposed to flip the bottles around

Unknown Speaker #4

when you're serving it. Not the customers, the women.

Unknown Speaker #3

Well, I do, like, I do a little dance around them. I like sort of, we'll, we'll do a little mambo, uh, or

Unknown Speaker #1

a little, a little samba, you know? We were doing mambo number three the other day. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker #3

You

Unknown Speaker #2

mambo. So

Unknown Speaker #1

couldn't play mustard. A little known

Unknown Speaker #2

would forget it halfway through and you wouldn't even make it to the fifth step.

Unknown Speaker #3

you

Yeah. Well, there's not a song to teach you how to do it. That's true.

Unknown Speaker #2

That is true.

Unknown Speaker #4

Um,

Unknown Speaker #3

but

Unknown Speaker #2

things are. Everybody begs up for a new mambo, right?

Unknown Speaker #4

He

Unknown Speaker #2

begs up for sure. He begs up for a new

Unknown Speaker #1

dad. And the customers are begging for their drinks because you give it to them.

Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah. Well, I'll say this. If you want to gauge my performance on anything, gauge it on the amount of tips that I got at my, on my first night at the bar.

Unknown Speaker #2

Oh, someone's confident. Okay. You are doing well. I did get a tip. So I think I'm doing

Unknown Speaker #4

a tip. One tip. Huh? We were slammed. Yeah. No. You got one tip?

Unknown Speaker #3

Yes. And it was a very nicely worded letter from a lady. Uh, it was awesome.

Unknown Speaker #1

Uh, it wasn't a monetary tip. It was like

Unknown Speaker #3

an advice. No, no, no. Somebody saw me and said, I like knew that I had potential. And so they wrote like a nice sort of three page letter, um, sort of about what I can't

Unknown Speaker #4

We

Unknown Speaker #3

pull tips here. I didn't get it. I didn't get any of that letter. I

Unknown Speaker #4

didn't

of the letter,

Unknown Speaker #3

get any

dude. Yeah. Well, it felt like it was addressed to me. I thought, I thought if somebody

Unknown Speaker #1

handed me something directly. That would have made me feel so good. Someone see me at my job and tell me that I have potential and that I could be better than this.

Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah. Better than the place that I currently am in my life. I'm sorry. I want a piece of that. I'm sorry. Okay. Sometimes I want every now and then I'd love to do something for myself. You know, I feel like I'm the most selfless member of this group. I'm

Unknown Speaker #1

constantly doing things. Selfless people say that all the time.

Unknown Speaker #3

I

Unknown Speaker #2

just sometimes would love to say it for dibs on selfless.

Unknown Speaker #1

He said dibs. Absolutely. He said, listen, I'm one of the best guys I know. Shotgun, selfless.

Unknown Speaker #2

That's how it works. Usually you say it first and then other people thinking about

Unknown Speaker #3

you. Yeah, absolutely. I'm just saying it felt very nice for me.

Unknown Speaker #1

Did she talk about us in the letter or was it only you? It was only about me. It was about us. What did it say? You are so selfish. Will

Unknown Speaker #8

you

Unknown Speaker #2

read the letter? I can read a little bit of it. As fast as you can right now? It's three pages, so I won't read the whole thing. Whoa. Okay. It says, to the man behind the bar, all right job, kiddo.

Unknown Speaker #3

Okay. Love your shirt, love your pants. Okay. Not your

Unknown Speaker #2

choice. All right job, kiddo. Love your shirt, love your pants. There's a couple people behind the bar, by the way.

Unknown Speaker #4

This just sounds like the song list on a My Chemical Romance

Unknown Speaker #2

album. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker #4

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker #2

It is encased in

Unknown Speaker #4

plastic, by the way. This letter. Wait.

Unknown Speaker #3

a... I like Gerard Wade just left behind one of his CDs for you. Well, every sentence does have a sort of number behind it. It's 03 colon 36,

Unknown Speaker #4

this

Unknown Speaker #3

Is

Unknown Speaker #4

02 colon 22. If it's not a three -page letter, it's the liner notes of a My Chemical Romance

Unknown Speaker #1

album. God damn. Next. Next. Next. So you've never gotten a tip. Someone just left an old CD

Unknown Speaker #2

at the bar. It is old, by the way. The case is scrunched.

Unknown Speaker #3

Oh, that's a scrunched

Unknown Speaker #1

Well, you know it's old because it's a CD case. Any CD case is old at this point.

Unknown Speaker #2

up case.

Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah, nobody's

Unknown Speaker #2

anymore.

Unknown Speaker #1

buying these CDs

Well, Jesus. Well, unless our side business of CDs... Oh, yeah. New CDs.

Unknown Speaker #4

Brand new CDs.

Unknown Speaker #1

Well, we did. We did. Brand

Unknown Speaker #2

new CDs, folks. We did, yeah. We're selling them out of the back of the restaurant. We did get... Yeah, we're selling them out of the back. Brand new CDs, brand new DVDs, brand new...

Unknown Speaker #4

We got a 1989 teacher's version in there.

Unknown Speaker #2

We are re -recording Taylor Swift's re -recorded albums with none of the original shit. We make up our own songs. But, yeah, you are doing Goodbye the

Unknown Speaker #3

Bop. Thank you. I felt like

Unknown Speaker #1

was tough. It was a tough time. You know, I obviously made a few mistakes, a few egregious errors. Well, I mean, the FBI came in to check the bar. They came in to check all the bottles,

Unknown Speaker #2

it

Unknown Speaker #3

make sure everything was up to snuff. It used to be the alcohol beverage people, but now it's the FBI for some reason. Yes. They came in, they shone the flashlight up through all the bottles, see if there's any particles in there, bugs floating around. Yeah, they sort of sent me into the back. I didn't see any of that happen.

Unknown Speaker #4

One of the guys pulled me aside and he was like, hey, Hillary did have a lot of emails. And I was like, I always knew it. Trump was right.

Unknown Speaker #1

Right. I mean, not what we're here for, but thanks for the info.

Unknown Speaker #4

You know what I mean? They did kind of just keep sort of leaking truths. I was like, bad emails or what? He's like, she just emails

Unknown Speaker #1

a

Unknown Speaker #2

lot back and forth. She had a lot of emails.

Unknown Speaker #1

It's like, that wasn't the thing.

Unknown Speaker #4

And a lot of these sort of no subject line emails, you know what I mean? Where it's just body, but even the body doesn't have much to it. Yeah. It's like, well, there's no subject line. Maybe it's a really serious topic. And the body's just like, on for noon still. I was like,

Unknown Speaker #1

all right. On for noon for what? There's no info in here. Anyway, she emailed a

Unknown Speaker #4

lot. Todd Padre here. Look, this lifestyle is wrecking me.

Unknown Speaker #6

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker #4

Up till 2 a .m. at the restaurant. You got to decompress. Of course. You have to make the menu. I have to make the menu.

Unknown Speaker #1

Every night. You're wanting to do new menu daily. Todd has never been more back of house. Just lifestyle

Unknown Speaker #4

wise. Yeah. Part of the restaurant lifestyle is you're up late afterwards, just chopping it up with your fellow

Unknown Speaker #2

servers, your cooks. You did a DJ set last night.

Unknown Speaker #4

Yeah. After close. Yeah. Which nobody said we didn't need.

Unknown Speaker #2

We did not need. But you were like, I want people to be

Unknown Speaker #4

having money. Yeah. DJ TP was on the ones and twos.

Unknown Speaker #2

Yeah. It's mostly me accidentally hitting shuffle on my own.

Unknown Speaker #4

Yeah. The flow wasn't exactly great.

Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah. I think people were having a fine time.

Unknown Speaker #4

We walked some people on the voiceover reel for sure.

Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. A lot of your personal audio files

Unknown Speaker #4

seem to be in there. Todd Padre, ethnic voiceover reel.

Unknown Speaker #1

I will say none of those were admissible, but not all of them were bad. Thank you. Yeah. Yeah. They weren't all bad. They're just, you're not allowed to do any of

Unknown Speaker #4

them. Yeah. But I got to say, I just, I don't know how I'm going to keep up with this. Well,

Unknown Speaker #1

again. You know, I appreciate bartender giving me my shift drinks after work. And you know

Unknown Speaker #9

what happens. One drink turns into two.

Unknown Speaker #10

Yeah. Turns into, let's see what the seagulls are up

Unknown Speaker #3

to. Turns into.

Unknown Speaker #4

The alarm's going off and I just got into bed. And

Unknown Speaker #3

it's like, time to make the donuts. Todd, I'll say this. I will say this. You did last week fire two of our employees and you have yet to even do a single interview to replace anybody. And a lot

Unknown Speaker #4

of people out there would probably.

Unknown Speaker #3

What's that?

one that wants to work

Unknown Speaker #4

No

anymore. Well, you haven't even taken resumes, Todd. And I've been sending in resumes. I've been putting out feelers trying to get people in here to replace Sean and Joe. But you just won't do it. And you're running this kitchen by yourself, not letting anybody else touch any of the

Unknown Speaker #1

ovens or stoves or anything. You're supposed to be having interviews back there. But all I'm seeing is a tattoo artist. You're getting inked instead.

Unknown Speaker #4

Yeah. I'm just living that kitchen lifestyle, man. It's almost like prison back there. And there's a camaraderie to getting inked. I got this pot roast on my right arm.

Unknown Speaker #1

It does look badass.

Unknown Speaker #11

It does say mom on it. It looks really

Unknown Speaker #4

cool. Very cool. Well, it looks like a pot roast, but it is what my mom looked like when they lowered her down. Right. Because obviously. When you forewent the embalming, you were like, I'm not paying for that. I'm not doing the embalming. I have a slow cooker.

Unknown Speaker #1

Why embalm when you can brine?

Unknown Speaker #4

Yeah. Right. I threw my mom in with it. It's a great recipe if you lose a loved one. Can of Dr. Pepper. Onion. Two quarts of chicken stock.

Unknown Speaker #1

Throw her in there eight hours on slow. Mom. Of course, mom.

Unknown Speaker #4

Don't forget mom. De -bond, de -skinned.

Unknown Speaker #1

The main ingredient, of course. But yeah, that made for a lovely service and a delicious luau. Thank you. Thank you.

Unknown Speaker #3

Which again, I don't know if you should be throwing luau. It's another thing that maybe we should.

Unknown Speaker #4

Oh yeah.

Unknown Speaker #1

We got

Unknown Speaker #3

emails. We got

Unknown Speaker #1

letters. We got everything. We got everything under the sun from people who are mad at it. Yeah. Absolutely. Well, I will say it is nice to see you attack a persona. A new persona,

Unknown Speaker #4

I would say. Yeah. Because I really feel, and I didn't ever want to say this to your face, but you seemed a little stuck in the bad acting thing.

Unknown Speaker #6

You seemed

Unknown Speaker #4

a little avoidant of the truth that you were never going to be an actor,

Unknown Speaker #1

never going to be a director. Your writing had been panned universally. It's just nice to see you in a new creative endeavor where you're really succeeding. by getting tattoos. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker #4

I disagree. I just disagree with the premise fully.

Unknown Speaker #3

But you have to look at the reality of life here, Todd. I mean, in a lot of ways, you are run down. Obviously, we can all see it. We all see that. But. In a lot of

Unknown Speaker #1

ways. Yeah. In a lot of

Unknown Speaker #3

ways,

Unknown Speaker #1

you're very run

Unknown Speaker #3

down. Physically by a car.

Unknown Speaker #1

Yeah. Physically, mentally, emotionally, you're run down.

Unknown Speaker #3

By a pack of wolves. But I'll say this. When those doors are open.

Unknown Speaker #1

Steamroller. You got hit by that

Unknown Speaker #3

steamroller. You've been run down and flattened. Flattened out. True,

Unknown Speaker #4

false. True. Sorry.

Unknown Speaker #1

True, false. True.

Unknown Speaker #7

True, false. True.

Unknown Speaker #1

That's a great new rhetorical device. Yes. But I think. Let's see. Is that true or false? It's

Unknown Speaker #2

true. Makes you seem really smart. Hmm. That could be true or false. It is true. Sorry, Howie.

Unknown Speaker #3

Go ahead. I was just going to say. It does

Unknown Speaker #2

feel like. All right, Howie. Howie boy. Agree,

Unknown Speaker #7

Agree Howie. This is Howie Do It. Eek, eek, eek, eek, eek, eek.

Unknown Speaker #4

Go for it, Howie.

Unknown Speaker #3

Howie.

Unknown Speaker #7

I was going to say. Shoot. You're run.

Unknown Speaker #3

You're run down. But I do think in a certain sense, it's nice to see you have something to throw yourself into that, like, isn't demoralizing in the way that your plays in the past have been. It feels like you're actually making progress. Like, you're actually. I would say this. Whereas most of the time I was, like, scared of what you were doing for you mentally. I'm kind of seeing this as, like, maybe a path

you.

Unknown Speaker #4

for

Well, you know, it's great to get some recognition early on. You know, Michelin came in, said my roast tasted like a tire. I got one tire.

Unknown Speaker #1

I think

Unknown Speaker #4

we called the wrong Michelin. I think that's all it is. I just think that's all it is. James Beard came in here and said, yep, there's a full

Unknown Speaker #1

beard in this food. Again, I think we called the wrong James Beard, but yes.

Unknown Speaker #4

We're on a

Unknown Speaker #3

Zagat's list, right?

Unknown Speaker #1

Zagat? How

Unknown Speaker #3

do you pronounce it? Well, unfortunately, I thought Zagat's was rating it. It was Sagat's list. Oh, no. We've been roasted.

Unknown Speaker #1

We've

Just like how after Roger Ebert passed, they still run RogerEbert .com and put film reviews. Right. And

Unknown Speaker #3

been roasted by Bob Zagat.

Unknown Speaker #10

read it and you go, is Ebert alive? And you go, oh, no, this is just somebody

Unknown Speaker #3

you

else. Mm -hmm. They're doing that with Sagat's where you still can get roasted by the king of the roast, Bob

Unknown Speaker #1

Sagat. Yes. Wow. I didn't realize

Unknown Speaker #4

that. Rest in peace. Rest in peace. It could be good publicity for us, so I'm not hating it. You know what I mean? Yeah. Negativity is the new positivity. Man, at Sagat's funeral, they were like, Todd bumps his head all the time. He never dies. Sagat bumped his head once and we lost the wrong guy who bumped his head.

Unknown Speaker #1

Right. That must have been tough

Unknown Speaker #2

for you. It was

Unknown Speaker #10

tough for me

Unknown Speaker #2

to hear. You were name -checked a lot. I get name -checked a

Unknown Speaker #1

lot

Unknown Speaker #2

at a lot

Unknown Speaker #4

of funerals. We wish it

Unknown Speaker #2

was Todd. Well, everybody, like in a word show, had pulled out the pre -written eulogy. I don't think it's healthy for everybody at every funeral to go, we wish this was Todd Padre in this

Unknown Speaker #4

how I'm processing it. And usually everybody in the audience nods until they have a neck brace on, and then the funeral continues on. Yeah, now they do training for discussions about wishing I was dead

Unknown Speaker #1

cast. I wonder

teach people how to nod kind of with their whole body. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker #2

when I

Unknown Speaker #4

You have to nod from the hip and use your leg. Well, and these neck doctors, these funeral -chasing neck doctors, they're at all these funerals passing out neck braces because they know people are

Unknown Speaker #2

agreeing for them. All the billboards now that are up, that like, you nod, we hot rod over to you, or whatever

Unknown Speaker #11

the ride is. These are badass doctors. These

Unknown Speaker #1

are

Unknown Speaker #2

badass doctors. Oh, those fucking

Unknown Speaker #1

Model T's with the engine showing. These are not real doctors. They're in it for the lifestyle. Fire's out 20 feet off the side. They's hot rod. You nod, we

Unknown Speaker #2

hot

Unknown Speaker #1

rod. Tons of hair. Tons of hair below the ear. Nothing up top.

Unknown Speaker #4

They look

skeletons driving hot rods.

Unknown Speaker #1

like

flaming hair kind of running behind them.

Unknown Speaker #2

Just wearing

Unknown Speaker #4

They look like a T -shirt.

Unknown Speaker #2

They look like a T -shirt. They look just like a badass T -shirt. I'll tell you everything. You look like a T -shirt. New character. I'm back into acting. I'm awake. I like that character. Wow, that was

Unknown Speaker #1

good. Todd Padra for

Unknown Speaker #2

Lorne Michaels.

Unknown Speaker #4

Okay, will he return?

Unknown Speaker #1

What did they say? No? They just said no?

Unknown Speaker #4

It says fuck off. Oh, okay. Will he

Unknown Speaker #1

return? I think it was probably somebody doing a character though. So they said fuck off and you said will he return?

Unknown Speaker #4

They hung up, yeah.

Unknown Speaker #1

Okay, well hey, at least you're trying. You're asking the right questions.

Unknown Speaker #4

Man,

Unknown Speaker #1

I am tired. What do you do with this stuff? What do you do? I'm used to the theater life, obviously, up till 2 a .m. doing a play. But we sleep in in the morning in theaters. You know, you get Mondays off, which is kind of

Unknown Speaker #10

what restaurants like here.

Unknown Speaker #4

We do have to be up in the morning, going to the farmer's markets, talking to other chefs, buying new pots and pans and stuff like that. It's a

Unknown Speaker #3

24 -7 go, go, go lifestyle. We'll go ahead and say it. But I do think we can use a pan more than once. I do think

Unknown Speaker #4

we can. You got to buy new pots and pans.

Unknown Speaker #3

I'm not relitigating.

Unknown Speaker #1

you mean?

What

Unknown Speaker #3

do

True false? False.

Unknown Speaker #1

Whoa, that's a good point.

Unknown Speaker #3

Jesus. That's a really good point. This works. I don't like how fast things get shut down with this

Unknown Speaker #1

true false thing. But Howard, think about this. What if we, because you know we're cooking all kinds of stuff. We're a restaurant with a big menu. What if we cook fish in a pan? You're not saying we could just

Unknown Speaker #3

wash

Unknown Speaker #1

out fish. You do a pan for fish, a pan for every other meat.

Unknown Speaker #4

Yeah, we can't use the same pan for fish and oatmeal again.

Unknown Speaker #1

Sorry, what did you

Unknown Speaker #4

say for fish and oatmeal? Oatmeal again, yeah.

Unknown Speaker #3

Well, also, I don't think we should have fish and oatmeal on the same

Unknown Speaker #1

menu. I don't really even think we should be using a pan for oatmeal

Unknown Speaker #4

at all. Okay.

Unknown Speaker #1

Your fried oatmeal is not working. Which complaint can I even

on? Your fried oatmeal is not working. It's not working. We'll get there. We'll get there. It's a new take on old slop. That's what we've kind of done with this restaurant. So we've taken peasant food and we've made it for everybody.

Unknown Speaker #3

focus

Unknown Speaker #10

You know

Unknown Speaker #1

what I mean?

Unknown Speaker #10

Like a collar of a

Unknown Speaker #1

pig. Well, peasant food wasn't always for everybody. Peasant food used to be for only the top of the top. It was

Unknown Speaker #4

just. Yes. Yes. And so now it's just like we're giving you all peasant food. Everything here is $30 plus on the menu, but we all dress in like Dickies and Carhartts. We make it look down to earth.

Unknown Speaker #1

When's the last time you had really, really good rice?

Unknown Speaker #4

Not always. You haven't always had that. And that's what we're bringing back. Good rice.

Unknown Speaker #1

Good rice.

Unknown Speaker #6

Good rice. Good rice. Good rice.

Unknown Speaker #4

That's a. I've been putting together a rice montage like in movies of me trying different races. And it's to that song.

Unknown Speaker #2

It's really good. It's really good. Hi, Bill Cravey here.

Unknown Speaker #7

Mondeby rice.

montage.

Unknown Speaker #2

It's

Unknown Speaker #4

good

Unknown Speaker #1

a

Unknown Speaker #4

Bill Cravey here. One of the waiters. Well, the one. Well, the main waiter. Yeah. And I am really, really enjoying the life out there.

Unknown Speaker #2

It feels like you get to swim out into the sea of customers. And you really get to spend. You know, you're getting to talk to a lot of people every day. I'm really getting to use my personality. And it just. I'm kind of loving it.

Unknown Speaker #4

Now, what's your. And I know the answer to this. So it's a bit of a leading question. But I do want you to tell the

Unknown Speaker #2

audience. What's your thought on how much the waiters performance should be a part of the meal? Like is a good waiter someone who you constantly have to nod and laugh at their jokes and be like. Oh, yeah. You're so friendly. I think you do. I don't think people are going to enjoy being at a restaurant unless there's a lot of words exchanged.

Unknown Speaker #9

Not necessarily the order. A lot of words exchanged with a stranger that you're getting food from. I don't think it's about disappearing into the scenery of the restaurant. I think it is about being

Unknown Speaker #2

big, bold, loud, distracting.

Unknown Speaker #3

Well, and also I'll say you generally order an entree for yourself at every table, right? I do.

Unknown Speaker #2

They say, what do you like? And I'm like, well, it's actually this. And I'm eating it right now.

Unknown Speaker #1

Well, we don't want people to come in and have to eat alone. We want them to have company.

Unknown Speaker #2

Well, yeah. You go to dinner with your little hubby, your little wifey. Yeah. But you could be really tired of them. Sometimes you need to make a little space for the third. Yeah. I'm like, scoot over.

Unknown Speaker #1

Yeah. They're like, table for four. And I'm like, right this way for five. Well, and you've got so good at that that you bring your little booster seat to every table and just hook it up right to the end of

Unknown Speaker #2

the table. That little brown

Unknown Speaker #1

plastic seat that's dirty. It's got mashed potatoes on it. Typically, it's for babies.

Unknown Speaker #2

It attaches right to the end of the table. It's got a

Unknown Speaker #1

little nylon seat belt on it. That thing's strapped me

Unknown Speaker #4

at all times. Our bussers have to clean up specifically after you,

Unknown Speaker #2

after every meal. It's like a huge, rice everywhere, crayon all over the table. Yeah. I mean, you can see it's clearly me because my body shape is left and everything

Unknown Speaker #4

around is mashed potatoes, crumbs,

Unknown Speaker #3

full beans. But Sam, we already kind of checked in with you with the stink. The stink's been the big thing for the week for

Unknown Speaker #1

you, huh? The stink's been the big thing. I've really been trying to work on it. And I think it's one of those things in life you might have to just accept. You know,

Unknown Speaker #4

been doing the peroxide with the bleach. I've been doing the freaking all of it. I've just been

Unknown Speaker #3

I've

Unknown Speaker #2

doing everything. I've been doing baking soda and vinegar. I've been doing just dirt. Like when you're camping and you clean your pots with just dirt. Dirt. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker #1

You know? And I've tried to stop, drop, and roll. Didn't work. Just made my clothes stink. You had to go home and shower.

Unknown Speaker #4

Right. You know?

you just tried any kind of catchphrase.

Unknown Speaker #1

So

Anything you've ever heard. Anything that is a tool, basically. Anything that I've heard of. You tried. I mean, I went to

Unknown Speaker #3

that. Well, you tried if the glove don't fit, you must acquit. Yeah. Oh, my God. Bought a bunch of tiny

Unknown Speaker #4

clubs and you were like, no, I'm still guilty of stink.

Unknown Speaker #1

Yeah. Yeah. I tried.

Unknown Speaker #4

You gave me the Heimlich? I gave it the Heimlich.

Unknown Speaker #1

I tried cross multiplication. I

Unknown Speaker #4

tried just anything that I could think of. Literally anything on earth that's a thing. Literally anything.

Unknown Speaker #3

You tried righty -tighty, lefty

Unknown Speaker #4

-loose.

Unknown Speaker #1

I tried righty -tighty, lefty -loose.

Unknown Speaker #4

You tried to cut for time.

Unknown Speaker #1

I tried.

Unknown Speaker #4

I tried to cut it for time. Anything that is a thing,

Unknown Speaker #1

you tried it. Yeah. I know. Infinite. An infinite amount of options. I'm hearing it now and I'm going, okay, don't just try catchphrases. At least use them for cleaning.

Unknown Speaker #4

You know what I mean? Right. Once it's on, then it's gone. Oxi -Clean. Haven't tried that yet. Well, that would be

Unknown Speaker #2

interesting.

Unknown Speaker #1

Have we tried

Unknown Speaker #2

calling the city and not canceling the garbage pickup because it's too expensive? Have we tried that? I just don't know if that's a thing, you know?

Unknown Speaker #1

Yeah. Right. They do typically come once a week, dump the dumpster.

Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah. If you pay them, but we are really, we're in. I also, yeah. I saw there's an upgrade package that you can also get your plumbing connected to city sewer for a

Unknown Speaker #1

higher premium. They do want you on the grid. Yeah. Which feels like a rapid. I am not going to be on the plumbing

Unknown Speaker #3

grid. Yeah, we can't be on the plumbing grid. Are you kidding me? I don't

Unknown Speaker #4

want people catching us on the plumbing grid. You know they can find out what goes in by what comes out.

Unknown Speaker #2

You know they can look in your doo -doo and know what you're up to. These big companies, it's crazy.

Unknown Speaker #9

give them our location

Unknown Speaker #11

We

Unknown Speaker #2

by shitting into a pipe and then our shit goes

Unknown Speaker #1

right to them. It's insane. And all they have to do is track it back and there's your asshole. And they find you. I can't believe we do it. Can you believe that we all just do that in American society?

Unknown Speaker #4

Apple. Not me. Back off is what I say with my phone. Yeah. But I'm like, hey, Kohler, you don't need to know my toilet story. Do you think.

Unknown Speaker #2

Hey,

Unknown Speaker #1

Every time you poop, it uploads to a story. Every time. Every time.

Unknown Speaker #2

It's just like social media. I can't. And we're not paranoid.

Unknown Speaker #1

No. We're not paranoid. We're just not shitting into a pipe that goes straight to the man.

Unknown Speaker #2

Straight to him? What are we,

Unknown Speaker #3

nuts? I can't believe anybody who's on the plumbing grid is insane.

Unknown Speaker #1

Well, that's. Yeah. And it's something we haven't really discussed because I think we just assumed everybody knew this about us. Yeah. I mean, after Snowden?

Unknown Speaker #3

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker #1

After Snowden, you're going to stay on

Unknown Speaker #3

the plumbing grid? And that's everything at this restaurant. We kind of just assumed people knew it. I don't think we talked about this as one of the selling points of the restaurant is how off the grid we are.

Unknown Speaker #4

Oh, fully. No one will know you came here. We've

Unknown Speaker #3

been having a lot of,

Unknown Speaker #4

I'll say characters and suspects coming in here.

Unknown Speaker #2

And staying for a long time. Oh, yeah. Yeah. A lot of interesting people. It is a, yeah.

Unknown Speaker #4

It is a place where you can dry out. You can. Yes. You can do. We got you.

Unknown Speaker #1

You're

Unknown Speaker #2

untraceable here. Right. When you walk in, right on the wall to the right, there's a bunch of masks hanging on nails. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker #11

You grab a mask. They fit perfectly to your face all the way

Unknown Speaker #9

back around

Unknown Speaker #11

the top. They're not some of these cheap masks that only go to the hairline.

Unknown Speaker #9

Yes. They go, they go across the top and to the

Unknown Speaker #2

back. All across the top, man.

Unknown Speaker #1

And yeah, we, you can,

Unknown Speaker #2

we just installed, you can take a piss here and never be traced. It's a PPN and we're on a PPN network. We're on a PPN. People will be, people, you piss, you know, here in America and people, the government will be like, oh, this piss looks like it came in from Argentina. Yeah. Now that's safety.

Unknown Speaker #4

That's safety.

Unknown Speaker #2

Yes. We're very, we're, we want to make sure people feel comfortable.

Unknown Speaker #4

Yeah. And cause that's when you get the big client. Oh yeah. We got some whales in here.

Unknown Speaker #1

yeah right but it was just a complaint about how the test was hard and

Unknown Speaker #2

Unknown Speaker #4

this shit's too hard uh that's my thesis i will go into many details all the questions are hard i don't know any of them uh we

Unknown Speaker #1

have the internet now i don't need to know any

Unknown Speaker #2

of this yeah

Unknown Speaker #1

why am i taking this thing unfortunately that you wrote that into the multiple choice portion and you wrote in a bunch of choices on the written

Unknown Speaker #2

portion yes and i think i did obviously you're supposed to use a number pencil i took a number two pencil

Unknown Speaker #1

and it sliced right into the toilet no splash you plugged your nose and it sliced it it went right into the toilet so well you didn't even have to flush you shot so hard down well because you did it off a seven meter platform you went off i was up on a centimeter plat i said seven meter but

Unknown Speaker #6

centimeter is better you were all

Unknown Speaker #1

up on a centimeter

Unknown Speaker #6

i couldn't believe you

Unknown Speaker #1

got all the way up there i was so scared

Unknown Speaker #6

i

Unknown Speaker #1

Unknown Speaker #2

off in a speedo i took a number two pencil straight to china

Unknown Speaker #3

uh well my my my test experience wasn't at all as interesting as that i

Unknown Speaker #4

just i i spilled my juice

but then the top is completely

Unknown Speaker #3

yeah

bulbing yes

start with 180 grams of sugar every morning

Unknown Speaker #1

so you

Unknown Speaker #3

and your other

Unknown Speaker #4

Unknown Speaker #1

other yeah i i'd love to see a man with a little scurvy beaties you're definitely yeah i'll say don't get rid of everything because you're

Unknown Speaker #3

definitely curvy you don't want to lose the curves you just want to lose the scurvy yes yes i'll lose this uh but no i spilled my juice all over my test and had to throw it away

Unknown Speaker #2

mr

Unknown Speaker #4

heimlich oh great my wife you're alive great fucking prick

Unknown Speaker #1

all right so that was a pretty good session that's what it sounds like to be mic'd up uh

Unknown Speaker #2

yeah that was that's what we wanted we wanted to play

Unknown Speaker #1

we

Unknown Speaker #2

wanted to play that for you guys that was a pretty normal shift

Unknown Speaker #1

uh but you know it's it's sort of the soft opening still we're open but we're not really grandly open so we're

Unknown Speaker #4

ironing some kinks i would say i mean as far as like watching game tape goes what where did we land on dating the customers because

Unknown Speaker #2

i

Unknown Speaker #8

know

Unknown Speaker #2

it can be a little bit of a conflict of interest it's a little power dynamic everyone knows that i don't think it's i think it's like very a very temporary power dynamic you're not even that powerful

Unknown Speaker #1

i don't know who's in power i would say you're definitely the less power

Unknown Speaker #2

yeah yeah as the server

Unknown Speaker #1

yeah you're getting bossed around why not that's not i mean

Unknown Speaker #2

that's not what's happening at a restaurant

Unknown Speaker #6

but it's a little bit of a restaurant i know it's not we're bossing

Unknown Speaker #2

yeah that's maybe my fault but i did think that man was handsome unfortunately he had dated the general

Unknown Speaker #3

uh so it did

Unknown Speaker #4

work out with us but i i don't know like uh that was a little fucked up i mean i think we know meatle juices feast is working

Unknown Speaker #1

it's working that was when that meatle juices feast comes out everybody's head turns

Unknown Speaker #4

i will say listening back to that it was good to sort of like see some mistakes todd order more wonton paper yes

Unknown Speaker #2

yes

Unknown Speaker #1

order more wonton that way if we're a toilet paper we still have enough for wontons and enough for one for toilet paper and i'm wondering the

Unknown Speaker #4

whole system we just need to make sure we're on top

Unknown Speaker #2

of you know how everything's locked up at cvs now you know everything's behind the little counter i do think we did have a dine and dash there yeah

Unknown Speaker #3

by an old man he was an old man though i think we have to give some leeway to the geriatrics

Unknown Speaker #4

lock up the tables though we could lock up the tables yes class so they

Unknown Speaker #3

can't diamond dash well

Unknown Speaker #1

to be fair he wasn't dashing as much as

Unknown Speaker #4

shuffling away right it was as much of a dine as a more of a gnaw a gnaw and shuffle but

Unknown Speaker #1

you did get the beef ribs and all the meat was left on the bone

Unknown Speaker #3

uh and i do want to say even in there you guys heard it people are loving the drinks that i'm making

Unknown Speaker #4

yeah our

Unknown Speaker #3

specialty can't take 50 minutes it just cannot

Unknown Speaker #1

okay you know i'll work on trimming it

Unknown Speaker #4

down well it's it's like we say in the restaurant business we have to be prepped before

Unknown Speaker #3

every shift so have your dirty water ready don't make it during the filthy waters we'll do uh

Unknown Speaker #2

we'll do a limited limited sale every week right where it's really scary out there when when when we don't mark something off

Unknown Speaker #3

yeah and i'm having to start out a lot of my shifts with i want you to know we are out of this and people are like we're the first people in here tonight why are you out of that already so that's that's a little stressful for me

Unknown Speaker #4

it's a little combative up top speaking of which 86 forks

Unknown Speaker #2

uh we're 86 done forks for the rest of the night oh my god we are not open yet no we got 86 forks uh push the knives tonight guys

Unknown Speaker #1

push the

Unknown Speaker #4

knives

Unknown Speaker #1

right well we'll have to yeah we'll have to everybody's gonna be eating with forks and

Unknown Speaker #2

i'm really happy i do worry about mr heimlich being in there i don't know

Unknown Speaker #4

maneuver to be clear it's not the guy that invented the heimlich maneuver it's a wrestler who goes by mr

Unknown Speaker #1

and mrs
