Ryland Adams and Lizzie Gordon visit Raising Cane's to taste secret menu items, creating sandwiches and sliders from the chain's limited offerings. The episode blends food content with personal discussions about sobriety, parenting, relationships, and celebrity culture, touching on topics like Savannah Guthrie's missing mother and reality TV trends.
Insights
- Raising Cane's success relies heavily on sauce as a differentiator; the chicken itself is bland without it, suggesting brand loyalty is built on condiment rather than core product quality
- Sobriety narratives are becoming mainstream podcast content, with hosts openly discussing addiction recovery and its impact on parenting and life satisfaction
- Reality TV and competition shows are evolving into 'gladiator games' format, with platforms like YouTube and streaming services creating high-stakes content around polarizing personalities
- Parenting content drives engagement and relatability in podcasting, with hosts discussing childcare logistics, product purchases, and family planning openly
- Celebrity culture continues to reward visibility and self-promotion; manifestation and public narrative-building are treated as legitimate success strategies

You're just drunk with power. Yeah, a decision is not my strong suit. Today we're at Raising Cane's. Today we're Raising Cane's. Oh, everyone's here. Grass. Grass. You're going to be rich. Okay, so we're trying secret menu items at Raising Cane's. No. I guess I should write a Yelp review about our Patreon. If she likes it that much. Don't you think? I don't think there are Yelp reviews for Patreon, but sure. You can write Yelp reviews for anything. It's odd to see Chris so optimistic given what had happened to him last week. Did you just see that slate? No, what did it say? It said, life is so good, and he showed up today looking like he's walked straight out of an LL Bean ad. Did you come last night or something? Look at this model. Look at him in his delicious neutrals. Hey. Looking like a snack. You get that settlement money early? He had extra time to stop by and get us all smoothies. I got a rental today. Life is so good. Really? Yeah. I now have wheels again. He's independent. Yeah. I don't know. That was such a scary incident. And like, was that a word? Did I say that right in? And then I, I don't know. I just woke up today. I'm like, it could have been so much worse. I could have been, you know, unaligned. And I'm doing, you know, like so good. You're alive. Yeah. Life's good. I don't know. I had a great day with my mom yesterday. Happy Easter. What'd you guys do? Oh, it was Easter. Yeah. Did she do an egg hunt for you? I wish. We did it for our sons. I did the fourth egg hunt for my sons, too. That's an excessive amount of egg hunts. Sorry. Everyone that knows them wanted to do it for an egg hunt. That's pretty cute. Easter. Wow. So you and your mom had a date? Yeah. Every Easter, we have a routine. We go to church. Then we go to brunch somewhere, normally Marmalade Cafe. And then we see a movie or whatever. We saw Project Hail Mary, which was so cute. So cute. I don't know what it's ever going to take me. It's so cute. we're gonna take you why won't shango it's a great movie we've just i don't think we've had time oh when am i supposed to go with children i mean you find time i know you find a lot of time we were raging with them all weekend so it's like yeah what am i supposed to do when i'm raging with them i can't wait till we can take the kids to movies i know i almost wanted to be daring and try to go to super mario with them and just you probably could yeah you could probably do like 45 minutes but skip all the trailers then we yeah we skedaddle as well and it's like no offense to the super mario movie but like you don't need to see if you both went together you could rent like the whole room it's not crazy expensive how much is it you just let your kids go nuts really or we could just like put it on in their living room that's true we have to wait for i don't i don't know i think like the experience of taking them to a movie for the first time would be special yeah we should do it at city walk oh well uh city walk well and then right afterwards we can go to Super Mario World.

He is such a ham, huh? He is such a ham. I'm reading all these comments. People really like me. So then why didn't he show... He didn't think he could top himself this week? No. So he stayed far away from us? My stepmom's in town. No, he's just in fear that he can't top what he had done previously. Well, last time he was here, we robbed him, and we gave him shit about coffee. We kind of did do that. We really did. Wow. We bullied that poor old man. Okay. Right off the set. So what's been going on? With who? You. This podcast is about us. Right. Anything happen to you this week or what? My baby is seemingly on the brink of rolling back to front. Okay. Which is insane. That's nice. He's just a little thickums. Okay. How's my little thickums growing up so quick? I love him so much. Joe and I are trying to navigate the cold, cold world of Facebook Marketplace. What do you need? A play structure. how big of a play structure are we shopping for a fucking big one really yeah for the backyard yeah one that is not age appropriate for either of my babies whatever one that is so fucking crazy i got an age appropriate one for my children at the time and they've already grown out of it and now they're like i they've like mastered the playground yeah the big boy playground and it's like what are we like what are we doing here drugs yeah what yeah no not for me no thanks no thank you wow so who's going to build that well we have to secure one first and i'd rather not buy one brand new because they're all over facebook marketplace and now not even from costco your favorite institution in the world it's like fifteen hundred dollars and what are they on facebook marketplace like a thousand okay well no they're more than fifteen hundred dollars they're more they're like they're close to two thousand and then on used you can get them between like 650 and like a thousand dollars okay and i blew it okay i thought this was a marketplace where you could like you know haggle and like as my friends you can't apparently fucking not because these are hot commodity items because we found like a basically brand new exactly the one we wanted to buy and it was like a thousand dollars cheaper and so we were like we want this and he was like all right well there's a delivery and an installation fee and we were like they're gonna installation it yeah and then that's where i started getting cheap i was like well how much is it no whatever they're charging for installation is worth it i know because your husband can't i already lost the bid and your dad he can do it he can do it but like come on save him a buck i think he would love to do it okay but my dad does says scary shit like i'd like to make it where i cut the wood and i'm like we'll buy a kit we'll buy a kit okay so what happened we lost it You lowballed it? Yeah, I was a cheap bitch. I was like, well, what if we don't want the installation? And it's like, we do want it. Why did I say that? Like, what was that? What kind of a haggle is that? What if I want to fuck myself? No, even building anything for children is a nightmare. You just end up like cursing the whole time and then stubbing your toe and then pulling out your hair and screaming. And you're just like, why did I even attempt to do this myself? So my dad also bought a kitchenette for Billy and then he built it. So I'm calling it Papa's Kitchen, and I'm going to print up a picture of Papa and put it on the kitchen for Joe. Or Joe. What's Joe's child's name? Billy. And he likes it? He loves it. Poor guy is so busy just filling orders all day. Cook, cook, cook. All he knows is cooking and dishes. Because now I have to build one. Well, you can ask my dad to build one for you. Will he? He probably would. And you know what I'm going to do? Vlog it. I'm serious. Um, what are you going to give the big update about your life? What? Well, you had like a huge milestone this weekend. Oh, did I? Or is that not for the podcast anymore? I mean, like, I mean, it's for the podcast. Tell the podcast. It's for the potty. I was proud of you. What were you proud of me for? For for what? How many years sober? Seven, seven, seven years. No drugs or alcohol. And like I reading pop because you tried being California sober once you first flirted with sobriety, right? Yeah, but California sober really quickly leads to club drugs, which is crazy. What's a club drug? I would say like MDMA and like cocaine. I never did cocaine. I wish I had because I think I'd be a lot cooler if I did. What do you mean? It just seems like cool people do cocaine. I tried it once and it was awful. I was at this party in Venice Beach. Yeah. And my roommate at the time was like, you'll be fine. You'll be fine. And like, I'm not like a drug person in general. Like I've never even had like a weed phase. Right. i've i've smoked weed but i've never had like a face where it's like my personality for a while yeah not for me for some reason and so then i'm at this party everyone's like a little bit cooler than me we're on the west side so it's 98 straight god west side sucks oh the parties are such a drag if you're straight or if you're gay i'm not on cocaine everyone at a west side party or a rich people party is like when we're doing cocaine but like do you think i have a drug problem and i'm always like just because you found out i don't do cocaine doesn't mean that i want to tell you you have a drug problem like that's crazy and that's the energy i met with at every party like so what do you mean you're like sober sober you're like sober sober like you don't do drugs at all do you think it's weird that i do drugs i'm like i don't even know your name and if you're on the west side it's either a finance bro or somebody that's moving their way up through a talent agency or like a commercial director who stumbled upon pharmaceutical ads and is rich as hell and they're like but i want to kill myself because i'm not getting to be creative it's like shut up tori you're a guy named tori wearing fucking linen pants getting high on cocaine on a wednesday on the west side on the west side anyways i tried the coke and it just wasn't for me i also hated coke because my roommates in college would always do coke and they would just their the energy of those people just drives me nuts as a sober person so that's so interesting because i was watching friends and neighbors and i watched those guys do coke and i was like so cool so you got through why are you so obsessed with friends and neighbors i like it what was i watching where john ham was talking recently and i was like whatever you're saying is really gay john ham i was really fascinated by it because he's like the def like to me he is a straight like he is the definition of like straight man yeah and whatever it was that he was saying was so gay and i looked to Jane and I was like, that's really gay of him, right? I wish I could remember what he was talking about. This is going to drive me nuts. Oh, no. Okay, so you're sober. I've been sober for seven years. Thank God. The greatest gift I get to give my children every day is my sobriety. Yeah, I don't think I can handle anything in life without it. Wow. I really couldn't because I think about how I was managing life prior to sobriety. And it's like, I don't even think saying managing life is an appropriate term for what I was doing. Because I was really just suffering and waiting for life to end. And now I wake up every day like super grateful, madly in love. And I'm still psychotic, which is fun. So it's like you get the best of both worlds. Right. You didn't lose what really makes you. No. In fact, I hate me less, even though I'm the most me I've ever been. Wow. And is it ever even hard for you anymore seven years in? Yeah. Watching that friends and neighbors scene where all those middle-aged men are doing blow at a club and then getting on a golf course and fucking around. Spoiler alert. That looked really fun to me. This is the most compromised my sobriety has ever been. And it's the Jon Hamm on Coke and the club meme. Wow. That meme literally triggers the hell out of me. because one thing about me girl is i love to pop a molly and french braid my own hair until the fucking sun rises and sets again you know what i'm saying if i could do molly and snuggle with my dogs all day every day and not like die or get bed sores or dreadlocks like fuck yeah that's what i'd do wow instead you just keep having kids which is a lot like I'm like braiding my own hair from sunup till sundown but it's different you know it's equal equal joys well congratulations to you and then she got cigarette sober which was incredible which can you believe that's trendy again smoking yeah like all the younger celebrities are like making trying to make it cool again cigarettes or vaping cigarettes You know, I feel like I'd rather see a degeneration smoking cigarettes than vaping. Can't they just, like, have a beer? Well, cigarettes don't count if you've had beers. Does Spencer smoke when he's drunk? He can't because of his heart condition. What a loser. Smoking's so cool. You don't smoke when you're stressed? I was going to say drunk, but you're not drunk. What? You don't smoke when you're, like, stressed or, like... No, but I've been hypnotized. Right. So I don't think about it. So if you're looking to stop smoking, look into Kerry Gaynor. I saw a few people asking recently, actually, which is why I thought I would just shout him out again. Kerry Gaynor is the hypnotist I saw. And I did three sessions with him. I left the third session, never had a withdrawal symptom, and never had a cigarette again. It's been years and years. And that is the best gift I've ever given you. I would like to credit Brigitte with that. Oh. Sorry. She produced the hell out of that. Wait, really? Yes. You think you went out of your way and found that? I was probably. You just said, OK. I was probably acting as the leader, though, moving the puzzle pieces. You were like, you know, it would be a good idea if I got my friend. Well, I think it was because I couldn't take it anymore. I was disgusted by you, which is something. So, Carrie, like the interesting thing about the hypnosis is like you're not unconscious. But I was very scared that I was going to like because being a woman, you go to a strange man's house with the intention of him knocking you out. like that's fucking scary yeah and if you're a hypnotist it's strange yeah like it's a strange profession to be like i'm gonna hypnotize you and it's gonna work yeah you know well i will say this i was never unconscious which made me feel a little bit better i don't know that gary understood that though because he was saying some things to me where it's like you feel comfortable saying that to my face that's really crazy whatever it worked like you're disgusting you're disgusting like a pig I was like, Gary, I'm politely keeping my eyes shut right now, but I am here. Lizzie is in the room with you. You're wrong. Your car was disgusting. So funny. And the kid I used to babysit, like, I was like, oh, yeah, I was smoking the whole time I was babysitting you. Like, I put you guys to bed and I'd go outside and smoke a cigarette. He's like, that explains why everything smelled like cigarettes. I was like, yeah, it would explain it. The cigarettes would explain it. I love him. What's he doing now? He's making movies. Really? And he hasn't thought to put either of us in one? No, isn't that so rude? Wait, what kind of movies is he making? No, he's making a short film. He just had a GoFundMe go up, and he and his friend met their goal, and they're going to start filming it, and it's pretty cute. I'm right here. I'll tell him. Do you want me to tell him you're right here? Yeah, I mean, sure. Are you going to fly to the east side? I know. The east side, what am I saying? East coast? No, absolutely not. Yeah, it's in New York. No. No. Sorry. We can't go to Manhattan, Jonah. We're fucking old. We have kids. Leave us alone, Jonah. I have no business in the city. You know what, Jonah? No, thank you. You know what, Jonah? Eat my shorts, Jonah. That are writing up her asshole. They're literally, it's like literally writing. Are you wearing the same ones again? No, they're a different pair and it's even worse. It's even worse. Why don't you create a product for that? That would be a bestseller on Amazon and we'd be rich. What's the product, though? Whatever stops that. It's like, you know, you'd have to like defy physics. Can you create a pair of shorts that does that? No. I don't have that problem. I wear shorts and my ass is fine. Okay, so if you're an engineer and you're like at Harvard or MIT or whatever, hit me up so that we can come up with a pair of shorts that doesn't feel like Mike Tyson is fucking knocking your gooch out. And we'll blow this shit up on Amazon. We'll blow this shit up instead of blowing our taints up. We'll be rich as shit. Rich, rich, rich. I'll buy you a house. You will? Yeah, if I get rich off my taint shorts. I thought I was in on this from the ground floor. No. I think you're going to need me. What are you going to add? The business. The business? I'm the business. If there's anything Ryland knows, it's business. Business. And that he's not down to do it. I'm really not down for anything, huh? I'm like a highly motivated person. that like everything's just a little bit too hard i watched this motherfucker come undone over a squatty potty ad one time really yeah in colorado you're like it was crazy wait what was i trying to buy one no you were doing an ad read for squatty potty and you were like trying to pick out a free squatty potty oh yeah a decision is not my strong suit. He was struggling to pick out a free squatty potty. Yeah. I can't make decisions. And they always say highly successful people can just like make a decision and move on. No. Anytime this motherfucker faces a decision, you're going to need a little while. Or you should just go. You should just go and maybe he'll come with you. Shane's highly decisive. And so that's why we mix well. Yeah. I will say 100% of the time that you and I have executed on something, it's because Shane has told you to get out. just do it god bless him for me no god bless him for me i really found my pair in him and i benefit from it greatly who makes the decisions in your house me oh i also recently decided i'm not asking for anyone else's input in the house what in what regard everything i done they your minions now no no it not even about being minions but it like i not I don need your input on how to throw away your stuff Trash is trash And we throwing it away Trash goes in the garbage Trash goes in the garbage and it gets taken to the curb. And we don't need to talk about it. It's just going to be done. He's never going to notice it's gone. He's literally not. What is his strange attachment to trash? I don't know. Have you tried to get to the bottom of it? I don't, I mean, I tried a little bit. And what's interesting is, so last week's vlog or like the vlog before or something, I was like talking about like, oh, here's a ball. Like Joe won't let me inflate this ball. And then he hears that on camera and on camera goes, you can, you can inflate the ball. Camera stopped rolling. Guess what? Ball's never been inflated. And then Joe behind camera is like, well, it's just not safe to inflate it. And I'm like, what are you talking about? It's a basketball. It's a flat basketball. It needs to be inflated or trash. It's not safe to inflate. I don't know. And then he's like, I didn't say that. he's a complex man he's super complicated but i love him very much he's so fun like so fun he's a fun he's a good times guy and that's probably why billy's a good times guy and ernie oh he is ernie's a really good times guy so he's really snapped out of it everyone at easter yesterday was like this baby is so chill well what's up with that you guys were like dressed and looking hot at 8 a.m. Period. I didn't get out of my pajamas until 3. I'm calling CPS. We had a great morning. No, you had a really cute morning. Well, we had a great weekend. I, for the first time, took the boys to a hotel. And? We, as Liz says, entered resort mode. How sick is it? It was very fun. It's cute as hell, huh? It was very fun. We did have a great time there. It was just like a cute little place on the beach. and so we had a blast but then i have five animals so i said okay it's 8 8 15 p.m we've got to go home how did the kids take it fine oh good yeah they were actually saying home home home because i think they were ready for bed and they're like well where are we gonna sleep here i was like dude should we all co-sleep in this bed right now tonight or were they down are we going home i thought i was this close to a co-sleep nap with billy this weekend really where you guys were just going to like no he's been uh struggling with transferring from the car to the crib and he usually never like struggled with that but the past two times he's fallen asleep in the car and it was saturday and sunday transferring is just like a scream crying huge problem and then he doesn't go back to bed i let no when i was in charge he went back to bed slept for an hour that's why you make the household decisions period when joe was in charge joe paraded him through the house turned all the lights on and off put him into the cage took him out of the cage yeah changed his diaper because he's like well he's saying he has poo and i'm like he doesn't have poo he's playing you and he didn't have poo and then joe brought him back out to me while he's like billy's already won and joe's like well what do we do do i put it back it i'm like you can't put it back in the cage now it's out it's among us so i was like let's put on in the spirit of passover let's put on the prince of egypt and cuddle and also the prince of egypt was that not for kids i've never seen it i don't think that's for kids i watched an animated thing i already told you this but i watched an animated short about easter too for our children to learn about it and i was like this isn't for kids so graphic it's so dark it's like well prince of egypt starts with like a really gnarly song and then just proceeds to be more and more intense like it's because that's like one of the plagues like i get it they learned about the plagues but i think that like billy school probably put a nice little coat of shimmer on the death of the firstborn son thing yeah okay what did you learn all about easter well tell the class why do you want me to recite because i don't know bitch you don't know anything about no but i've just been seeing these things on tiktok or on instagram reels where they're like moms that are like doing like a little electric shuffle to like because the cave was empty because the cave was empty because the cave was empty like what is that his son down to earth okay we all know that continue okay to die for everyone's sins oh right and then he was made fun of everyone was like oh no you're not actually god's son you're not and then they mocked him mocked him mocked him killed him hung him on the cross yeah and then once he died is when they realized oh he is how do they know and well because when they he got a blue check mark buried him oh my god when they buried him yeah and then put him in the cave and enclosed it with the rock when they went to check later uh he he he had escaped because the cave was empty okay and that's where the dance that you're watching comes in. I can't believe they made it into a dance on TikTok. Isn't that crazy? They'll just make anything to a dance on TikTok. Because the cave was empty. I wish I'd saved any of them. There's like little girls doing it too. Gosh, these girls are out of control. They're cute though. Honestly, who cares if they're celebrating their religion? I think it's beautiful. Yeah, right. Because the cave was empty. Yeah. Okay. I'm putting that beat to it. That was just text on the screen.

Thank you, SeatGeek. back to our chef. I'd like to make another formal apology on the podcast. Oh, I'm sick of doing this. To whom? Well, not to everyone, to be clear. A very specific few. A very specific few. Okay. In recent podcast history, I have gone out onto a limb and proclaimed anyone with a child named River or Ocean is a bad person. That's bad of you. I'm going to say I stand by that. Jesus. 89% of the time. Okay. You met a River you like over the weekend? No, I've been known a woman who I really enjoy whose son's name is River, and he's really cool. Did she reach out to you? She didn't, but every time she messages me now, I'm like, I feel awkward. Well, I mean, you still hate the name, so it's like- No, no, no. No, no. I don't hate the name. I hate the person who says things like, we named our daughter Bowie, you know? because we love David Bowie. Like, that's the person I don't like. Do you know what I mean? Like, we all love David Bowie. That's why he's an international superstar. I'm not. I've already called these people out, too. Like, I'm not. I'm just doubling down. The thing that I'm saying here is, like, not all rivers, you know? Not all rivers. But most. and what was the other one river and ocean oh so you just don't like water no you never have no i've never liked water i've never liked water and honestly one thing about me is if it if it's not a pool or a lake i'm not in it that's so weird that you don't want to go to the ocean Unless it's Hawaii. The way that you swallow that smoothie is making me want to kill you. Kill you dead. And I'd be so sad because I'd miss you like crazy. But if you swallow like that one more time, I'm going to have to do it for everyone. How would you do it? I'm not getting implicated in my own crimes publicly right now. That was entrapment. I object. okay am i gonna take my kids to monster jam this weekend or what oh shit they're so obsessed with monster trucks it's all they want you should take them and monster jam is coming this week where the sofi stadium you're gonna take them to sofi well i don't know they're obsessed with monster trucks am i like a bad parent if i don't let them live that out can i come with you will you yeah of course are you gonna bring bill no i'm going for myself i'm dying to go to a fucking monster truck thing. Does he like monster trucks? Yeah, dude, he's a little boy. Oh, okay. Jesus, okay. Grow up. Well, my kids used to be obsessed with tractors, but like tractors, nobody cares about them in my house anymore. No, they're losers. We're only into monster trucks now. Can I have all your old tractor stuff? Please. Can we get good seats, though? I'm going to put them on Facebook Marketplace. Don't you dare. Well, actually, let me check if they're on SeatGeek right now. Well, I'm going to say something really nasty. About who? No, I'll keep it to myself. No, say it. No, no, no, no. It's judgy and rude. About me? No. About who? Other. Okay, they don't. Yeah. Monster? Monster? Oh my gosh, it is on SeatGeek. Get the tickets. Get them for my family, too. Oh my god, they're actually reasonably priced, too. Get good seats, though. And with our code, THESIP10? Oh my god. Are little kids, do they need tickets or are they free? our kid i don't know so how many do i need six how many is one two we should probably do this off the podcast max shane rylan lizzie joe billy ernie doesn't need a ticket seven seven okay oh my gosh right up front how much would this be we have to get headphones for our kids they because they need but how much is seven tickets shane already ordered the headphones for two kids I mean, I can order headphones. Okay, I'm just saying I already have mine. I'm not. But I feel like I'm going to have to, that's one of those things where I'm going to have to prep them on getting used to the headphones this week. They'll want them when we get there, I'm sure. You think so? Because it'll be so loud. Let me see. How much is this going to be? How much is it? Well, for seven tickets. Yeah. A thousand dollars. And then you use code this at 10 for 10% off. And then divide it by seven. And then add that. Okay. This really shouldn't be a podcast thing, huh? No, this is definitely a podcast conversation. This is riveting stuff. This is the news in black and blue. And it starts at 5 p.m. That's reasonable. Hella reasonable. Yeah, because then we can be out of there by 7. But it's at SoFi. Do you know how hard it is to get the SoFi? I hate SoFi. I hate SoFi. It's in the middle of nothing. What day is it on? Saturday. We'll solidify this after. Okay, come on. Focus. You saw the Lamar Odom doc. I did see the Lamar Odom doc. Is that something that's new? join us billy just had went over to the refrigerator in our house and started banging on the refrigerator going milk milk milk milk and joe was like he's never been desperate for milk like this he needed it to feed his baby doll how sweet is that god i love this kid joe is really not good at sunscreen joe's the nanny today no the nanny's with the baby and so joe's the nanny today for billy well joe's the father of his children that's not what you said last week joe's the nanny today okay i saw the lamar odom documentary something that's new i think so oh it's one of the sports installations on like the untold sports stories like the untold series on netflix they just do sort of like quick but classy documentaries on sports right sports and it's called the death the deaths and life of a little mar odom okay apparently that motherfucker died a couple times really and he said he was dead for three days at one point so lamar odom is a classic addict which i find very relatable a lot of the things that he said about addiction i was like yeah i get that because the scary thing for me is and i'm sure i've talked about it here before but it's like when you're for me when i was using when i was drinking i would just think to myself and i would say out loud like if i stayed drunk this isn't a problem and the first step of me getting sober was admitting that it was a problem and listing all the ways that my life had become unmanageable because of alcohol. And what's so funny is my first alcoholic thought was, yeah, but none of that matters if I'm drunk, which is crazy. Stay drunk. No problem. No problem. No problem. Someone's like, yeah, but you like you live under a freeway overpass. I'm like, yeah, but I'm drunk. No problem. Yeah, but you have nothing and everybody you know and love is hurting for you. Yeah, but I'm drunk. So no problem. I don't care. And it's and that is a literal rational thought of my active alcoholic brain, which is crazy. And it's, it also explains why, you know, an addict using or drinking has nothing to do with anybody else. It's because their brain is hardwired to think no problem. Right. And we're numbing out. Um, so just hearing Lamar Odom share about that stuff to me in conjunction with my sober anniversary, it was kind of great. Watching Friends and Neighbors, that's an idealized world in which men with a lot of money and power are using cocaine and being silly, goofy guys. But they don't lose their mansions. They don't lose their jobs. They don't lose their families for those reasons. They lose them for other reasons. But in that world, drugs are all fun. You're really making me have to go back to the show. I'm really enjoying it. Why did I fall off? I got four episodes in and I fell off. Maybe you need to be postpartum simple brained right now i'm not gonna try it you've brought it up to me like 17 times i was really looking forward to texting you to talk about it too i'm gonna jump back in okay i've been looking for something to watch yeah jump in girl because there's a whole new season sorry i derailed you no you didn't derail me i brought it up um but yeah so the law and then chloe's in the show and just like the revelations of everything that they're saying like chloe's like i was going to Fleabag Motels because hookers were calling my mother Kris Jenner and saying Lamar has done too much crack and I need help getting him out of this hotel right now. So Kris Jenner was like going to shitty motels and dragging Lamar's cracked out ass out and keeping it secret with Khloe. And Khloe was only 24. How old was he? Probably young too. Wow. Yeah. Wow. And is he doing well today? I don't know. He seemed sober. He seemed sober. He seemed okay. I don't know what he's actually up to. But like watching it all back, it's just like it's so sad. It's so sad how alcoholism and addiction really is a wildfire. I mean. Because it's not just affecting the addict. It affects everybody and everything in the addict's orbit. Everything. devastating devastating yeah so if you're out there and you're thinking i'm using i'm drunk it's not a problem the good news is if you start to see it as a problem you can have a life that is so free and liberated the end joy filled and you will never feel you won't feel bad about yourself because you're behaving in a way that gives you self-esteem so if you think you'll never be able to shake the shame of your past, that's a lie. And that's a lie that the substance is telling you to keep you down and out. And any thought you have that is pro using is just that dark fucking monster that feeds off of your misery. But the reality is the sober part of your brain becomes so alive and so beautiful. And it doesn't cost anything. The dark side costs something it costs your entire life and all of your money and everything you know and love and the sober part is fucking free just letting you know and it comes with gifts it's like a gifting suite of life period that's why because like at the beginning you're like oh it's so much work it's like oh my god when i look back on how i thought it was so much work i'm like to stay sober it was work put into yourself to be happy you know what i mean like it's like it's not even the same work as cooking like cooking is work to feed yourself i guess the work would be like facing some of what you initially started masking yeah to use yeah so like emotionally i guess yes but when you think about it the work is of and for yourself right yeah yeah be selfish yeah you're not doing it for another boss you know what i mean like it's for you like it's all in your best interest and once you get to the root of why you're trying to mask whatever it is you're masking, your life will feel great. And the shocking thing is sometimes it's like you're not even masking anything. It just is what it is. I also think even if you're not using, if you're going down a trajectory that's making you sad, pivot. Period. Life's too short. Well, that's why. You should be chasing like whatever's calling you. Yeah. But the problem is when you're in the house that's on addiction fire, you don't think that way. You just think, right, but like, I'm not going to worry about those lost dreams. I'm not going to worry about my dead ambition because I get to use. It's crazy. It really is crazy. And that's why I also like, not to be too weird, but I think about it like a demon. It's a demon that like feeds on my misery. And it really is so unfair because I don't like it. I'm saying it's unfair because I like I dabbled in drinking. I don't have like that addiction gene for alcohol. So it feels unfair to me. I would agree watching you like, you know, it's just it is like why? Because I love drinking. One of the first things I did when I got sober is I called my friends. I was like, you don't even appreciate drinking. You don't even love it. Like, I love it. Why do you get to do it? losers honestly those calls happened yeah when i first met you i was just like i loved drinking you loved drinking she'd come over she'd down like two bottles of wine what no i could only afford one bottle one and i'd be like oh she's just a lot of fun we're just young and she's a lot of fun no a lot of fun i would like the the epitome of my alcoholism was we were in a movie We were in a movie theater sitting in a seat to see Jurassic Park or something like in 3D. We're in the seat. And I was like, we really should go get some alcohol. There was no alcohol in the theater. So we left the theater, went to a Trader Joe's, bought a bottle of wine, drank it back on the way to the theater and then watched the movie. What is that? Crazy. Crazy. Crazy. What are we going to do? Go into hot topics? Well, I have five that I came up with at one o'clock in the morning while I was nursing my child. Okay. I have bad news for you. No. Oh, I can't take you guys to Nobu. Because you're going tomorrow with someone else. I have a meeting. What's the meeting and who's it with? Can you believe that? Who's the meeting with? Can you believe that? Who's the meeting with? Can you believe that? No, I believe it. Well, I'm like a pity invite because I'm a pity invite. Well, who's the meeting with? Patreon. Can you believe it? Who I hate. I have some platform issues, which is something I hope we can get to tomorrow. No. At Nobu. Multiple issues. I don't eat sushi, but I have a problem with your platform. No, two issues. I want a billboard. Patreon. You bitch ass. Well, I... Okay, yeah, period. You got a billboard. No, I didn't. I'm just saying, like... Will you bring it up? I'm a pity invite tomorrow, so I doubt that I'm going to be, like, a billboard conversation. Whatever. Okay. It could come up. Should I come? oh why not no i'm like so this is great and everything but how do i log into my account no like for real like how do i log into my account i can get into your account today okay you should try I think you probably the technology I would not guess that And if everything that could be the problem there it probably not me No, it could never be. Honestly, it's probably Lamar Odom. Well, have fun with Patreon at Nobu. I'm just saying. I know, you said it. I've lived in L.A. for, like, a million and a half years, never been to Nobu. And now that I've been trying to go to Nobu on the podcast and we haven't made it, I have a meeting at Nobu. pity invoice you don't have a meeting stop saying you have a meeting i'm on the invite i'm on the google invite no you do have a meeting my name is on is it about you but keep talking into the mic for a man who tells everyone to talk into a mic and is always like how's this better because you've been going like this and at first i thought it was a creativity choice and now i'm realizing You're just drunk with power. I get one pity invite to Nobu from Patreon. Why is it a pity invite? Because it was Shane's meeting, and then Shane's like, my husband should come, right? And they're like, your husband should come. Why is that? That doesn't sound like pity. Well, I wouldn't have been invited had Shane not had a meeting with Patreon. You really should bring up the billboard. I didn't even tell you, actually. We got invited to like a group Patreon dinner, but it's on the east side. You and I. Let's go. We got to start brushing elbows. It's for like top podcaster Patreons. Let's go. Can you imagine the people that are going to be there? Let's go. Can you imagine them? Don't talk. Cut this all out. We're so excited to see the people that are going to be there. You can go. Without you? There's no chance in hell that I'm going and mingling with anyone that creates anything on the internet. If you're not going, will you watch my kids for me? Sure. Shut up. If you drop them off at my house. And then go to the east side. Should Chris and I go? Yeah, you guys could. Can you make Spencer go? Make. Spencer. He's already on the east side. I'm sure he would go with you. Okay. If you wanted to go, he'd probably join you over there. Chris probably knows all these people. He might work with them. Chris is like, I film all those podcasts. If you have to take it, you can, Chris. I'm so sorry. Who is it? Is it your kids' take care? Oh, you can take it. Should I? Yeah, go take it. Chris is on the phone with law enforcement. Get him. Get him. Okay. When's the party? I'm not going. I couldn't possibly. If it's after bedtime, are you high? I don't know what time it is. They need to have mommy-friendly events. Should I tell them? We'll come to your mom event. Yeah. Okay, let's get into your hot topics, then. Well, in the same vein of shitting on other successful creators. Oh, no, I don't think we should. Why? Shit on? I'm so happy for everyone that's getting opportunities. Period. Oh, you know what? No, truly. More doors for opportunities for other creators like us. but we're not going to your parties. Something about me is I will not be going to your party. Even if he liked you, you wouldn't go to your party. No. Okay. So Alex Cooper. Okay. You might've heard of her. I might've. She's a small podcaster. Tiny. She has a fledgling network that she's running herself. A tiny little brand deal with Target. Is that what it's called? Is that how it's pronounced? Yeah. Target. is she a media tycoon she's becoming yeah good for her I mean she really is she has a production company now and she's producing a lot of things like they produced the Hannah Montana special which is why she's the one that was the interviewer yeah and so yeah she's getting and good for all these people honestly like yes she's getting a lot of opportunities and she's making them she's making them so good for her she turned a podcast into an vampire and i can't we went to that party i'm sure we could do the same i don't even think she has to have a patreon i think she's so rich beyond belief that like she's like what's patreon she doesn't even know that she subscribes to a few yeah yeah so like must be nice up there it must be nice what i thought was hilarious out of that is that the premiere when miley cyrus called her out being like alex cooper's kind of creepy she got a little bit of money and bought the house next door to me and she's like what i didn't know and she's and uh hannah hannah montana miley cyrus was like yeah you came to my house to interview me for call her daddy you knew exactly where i lived and you bought the house next door knowing that i lived there and you're obviously obsessed with me you went out of your way to produce this special that's really good that part's hilarious that's really funny i mean miley cyrus doesn't get enough flowers she gets her own flowers and good for her she really does get her we should all be giving miley flowers going to the store and grabbing her own flowers she's jiving to the store she stays on top of it like yeah she's on top of opportunities for herself she's on top of her fitness she's on top of it like that girl is ready to go like you call her and she's like i've been ready period i'm ready she's like i manifested it yeah um did you see how she got that special She manifested it. You saw that, though? Yeah, of course I saw that. How she was like, Dolly taught me that when you want something, you just speak about it like it's happening. So that's what I did about this reunion. I just started going on red carpets, talking about this reunion being a thing when it wasn't. And here it is. Here it is. That's just like my docuseries. Exactly. Period. Liz is going to start a docuseries about the hottest hometown gossip you've ever seen. And I do think it could turn into something a la Mormon Wives, even though I haven't seen that. It's like real people, real drama. Yeah. Here you go. Get a seat. Get a seat. Sit down. Buy a ticket. Buy a ticket. Great. Wow. I'm so excited to start production on my docuseries. Okay. Butterflies of excitement in my guts right now. Seriously. For real. You've got to get all the people involved. I know. And I will. Okay. So what's the story here? Alex Cooper is doing an interesting reality challenge show. Okay. Okay. She's launching a four-episode YouTube reality competition show titled Unwell Winter Games. It's live now. Okay. The show features 16 polarizing. This is what I thought was interesting. Where was my invite? You're not polarizing. People don't hate you enough for this. Oh. Polarizing reality stars and influencers competing in mental and physical challenges at Park City, Utah, Chalet. Okay. The lineup includes, and this is where they lose you, controversial personalities like Anna Delvey. No, I'm interested in that. I loved inventing Anna. No, you're not like Anna. Right, but you're not like Anna Delvey. No, not me. Yes, not me in the competition, but me as a viewer, I'm going to watch Anna Delvey. Dakota from Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Don't know her. It's a guy. Oh. He's the husband. That's a girl name, right? He's the husband. Oh, no, he's the baby daddy of Taylor Frankie Paul, who she beat up and threw a chair at. He was just edited out of something called like Vanderpump Villa or something because they're removing these people from stuff because the public is not interested in seeing them right now. I thought that there was the most demand ever for them to see The Bachelor. I know. Can you believe? Do you think they'll release that? I hope they do. Well, I'm just saying I think there is curious. I don't think it's people that are like wanting to. I think people want to hate watch whatever they're in out of curiosity. No, this is, I've said it before, and I will say it again, reality TV is the gladiator games of the 21st century. Right. And it's fucked. Yeah. Anyways. Oh, wow. Demi Emerson's on it, too. Demi made a fool of herself. And if you need me for the Real House Husbands of Calabasas, I'm right here. Okay. Which is really why. Okay, cool. I put this story in here. The Malcolm in the Middle reboot. The Malcolm and the Reboot. Hold on. I have to pick this wedgie. Like, my cooter's on fire. And it's not a rash, just for clarity. It's an impact injury. Hold on. I'm digging them out. It's like they're so tight on my vagine that my vagine starts burning. And it's not burning like a chemical burn. It's burning like it's hot. Like, when you break one of those, like, heating things that heats your hands, like, that's what it feels like it's happening to my cooter. Okay. It's getting, like, pow, and then heat released. Do you have like a yeast infection? No, I told you. It's not like that. It's dry. It's an impact injury. God. Nobody cares about my impact injury. I think the Malcolm in the Middle reboot starts this week. Yes. I'm excited. Well, there's a huge, another thing that's tied to us in this situation. And it's proof that the universe is on our side, I think. Okay. I don't know why it is, but it is. Okay. so the remember the little brother from Machima in the Middle he's not returning why here you can have that he's not returning because he is now like some deeply intellectual scholar and where is he oh I didn't write it down that's devastating The only thing I wanted to share is in here So what's the story? He's studying Emily Dickinson He threw down a huge paycheck to study Emily Dickinson They offered him buckets of money to come back And he just said, no thank you wow yeah he said all done no couldn't be me i'd be like you're not gonna pay me i'll be there yeah i'll make it work i'll pay you wow yeah so he said no because he's studying emily dickinson literature at some fancy college to do what act i don't know someone should let him know that she's like you know what i mean like she's not gonna help him out career-wise okay here's a topic that I never really dived into, and we didn't talk about it on the show. I was fiercely following this story for a long time. Maybe you can fill me in. So Savannah Guthrie lost her mother. Well, we, she went missing. Someone took her. We still don't know. Someone took her. She didn't go missing, right? Somebody took her. Yes. In the middle of the night. Oh my God. It was terrifying and so jarring because she's an elder woman, relies on medication to survive, and uh yeah there was blood at the front doorstep she was missing her cell phone was left behind and they were doing an intense search day in and day out and there are no clues there's nothing there were multiple ransom notes throughout all of this none were ever verified to be true they were entertaining a couple of them offered money for any verification that it was real proof of life Savannah has been relentlessly begging for somebody to do the right thing and return her in whatever state that she may be she wants the closure and she has not gotten it and it is heartbreaking and heart wrenching she recently went on the today show and did like a two-part interview and has plans to come back to the today show at some point oh she came back she's back that's why it's on here she's back oh to like monday morning she's back yeah but she said something really powerful about it i didn't know all any of this it's i was i couldn't take my eyes off of the coverage for a long time because there were like for a while it felt like they were getting closer and closer and closer and finding clues and clues and the like camera company got like the image of the man like masked of course and that's still like i don't know i was like hoping with them for so hard for so long and then at some point i had to like dip out of the coverage because it became so disheartening and it's just like what what's their intention like was it money because they money was offered was it to publicly harass a public figure that is on national like I don't know I just don't know and so I think her coming back is saying like well I'm not gonna hide from you this is what she can I tell you what she said yeah my joy will be my protest my joy will be my answer and being there is joyful I mean there's a whole reason why I didn't dive into it when it was going on and it's because that's so fucked and so sad it really is just horrific Like, I don't know. Some people were trying to link it to the files. I guess her husband does like crisis PR in Washington. And years and years ago, she interviewed a bunch of victims that ultimately didn't end up airing, I think, for whatever reason. Yeah, for whatever reason. But it truly is just so, so sad. and through all of it, like, they were questioning her siblings. Yeah. The public was violently harassing her siblings. They were standing outside of their homes and, like, in mass groups. They had to, like, go into hiding. It's just, like, so fucked up on so many levels. Should we end on a better note? Yeah. Well, we can't. Because my next story is really sad, also. Sorry. Do you want to... Well, first, I'll give you what I learned that's sad. Five gray whales have been found dead in the Bay Area. I did see that. That's crazy. Apparently, like, 21 gray whales die per season. But I'm like, what's the season? What's the season? And is it just of old age? No, they think that they're getting hit by boats. What? Yeah. Why are you? It's just so crazy. What? Yeah. Oh, no. Well, do you want the good news now? Yes, I want the good news. I stumbled upon this information because apparently they've also spotted a norwalk in the Bay Area. What's that? The norwalk is the unicorn of the sea.

Get out of the car. You can walk home. You can walk home. Okay. Welcome to Raising Cane's, everyone. Two, take one. Mark, come on. Oh. Oh. Take a seat. Oh. Hey, everybody. Welcome to Raising Cane's. Hey, everybody. Welcome back. And we're at Raising Cane's. Today, we're at Raising Cane's. Today, we're Raising Cane's. Today, we are Raising. Today, because Cain was abandoned, he will be raised by us. And this one is a drive-thru. And this one's a drive-thru. I was trying to see if it was quiet on the patio. Like, should we eat outside? But it's 82 degrees. What is this man doing? This man is walking right towards us. This man is seeking death. Hey, sir, sir. Can you stop seeking death? Can you get the fuck out of our way? We're in a drive-thru. Okay, so. Another sir. We're trying. Why are these men walking into your car? Do they have a 13 threes in? Tell me when you're done. This guy's trapped. When you're done? He's trapped. We've trapped this car. Okay. Well, does he not know we're filming this official podcast? I mean, we're literally in a drive-thru lane. And I don't know what that red car was doing either. Okay, so we're trying secret menu items at Raising Cane's, which, like, their menu is, like, just their menu. Yeah. So I think we're just getting like... What can I get for you? Hello. Could I get... Just your menu? Sorry. Could I get three... Number three, or the three finger combo? Three finger combos? Yeah, three three finger combos. Well, I'd like some cool stuff. All right, and for the drink, what would you like? What would you like to drink? Water, please. Chris, what would you like? Water as well. Could I get three waters, please? Yeah, of course. Anything else for you today? Actually, can I change one of those to a tea and lemonade? Ooh, sheesh. You got Arnold Palmer? Yeah. All right, anything else for you today? Could I get a side of coleslaw? Okay, coleslaw. One side of coleslaw. And that should be it. Chris, do you need anything else? No. All right, my piece of a new for the order. Ryan. Wow. First of coleslaw. Ryan, right side of three three-finger combos, two with water, one with the Arnold Palmer, one side of coleslaw. It's going to be 3789. Perfect. Thank you. You know what's crazy? You and Spencer have like an affordability off meter. I was thinking that's very expensive. $37 for three of us to eat. That's like $10 a person. $37. No, that's like way more than that. Well, guess who's not great at math? I mean, I'm sure it's a lot of food. $37 after tax. What are you going to do? Kill me? You're going to fucking kill me? Oh, no. I left my wallet at the... I have Apple Pay, but it's not linked to my business card. Chris. No, I'm just going to pay with my credit card. Chris, can you buy us lunch? Grass. Wow, look how beautiful this building is, though. Wow. Like, the paint is fresh. It hasn't even dried yet. I didn't even know this was here. Brand new, baby. So what has been everybody's favorite part about today? I really enjoyed our conversation about Jesus. Okay, well, that was off camera. So that was something they didn't get with us. Oh, if you guys want to be depressing, Chris Scott. Oh my god, Jesus. Chris Scott. It's a sad story. I thought that's where you were going, to be completely honest. What are you doing, holding that? In Chris's presence? Show him. What was it? I don't want to show him. I'm not trying to commit a hate crime right now. You think that's a hate crime? To Chris, maybe. Really? Well, now I gotta know. Well, the one minute that Chris wasn't with me, I finally made it to Chick-fil-A because, you know. Oh, no, that's fine. My message to all of you. don't try Chick-fil-A's special like their specialties they had like a special like bacon jalapeno like spicy whatever shit sounds like it's right up your alley though I know but I was like I would just prefer the original spicy simple classic delicious like my go to if it's not broke please stop trying to fix it I understand they're like trying to create am I supposed to pay here who could ever really say Not me. Not me But I do want to point out really quickly Ryland Okay That some of the best ordering you ever done You walked in confident Thank you You knew what you wanted You said it with you know words And then you pulled away. And it was like everybody felt comfortable. You provided a sense of ease. And the thing is, it's hard to do something different than that here because it's like there's nothing on the menu. Ryan? Yes. Appreciate you guys waiting. It's going to come out to $37.89. Oh, I have to pay for this? I forgot. Oh, Chris. Thank you. I love it without here using words. Wow, this one's mine. You guys are lame and just got water. You're going to regret that. I don't think I can have anything else. Thank you. You can't have sugar? Oh, I can't have anything with caffeine or carbonated. They're lemon? It's not. Oh, you can't have anything with citric acid. Why? Don't you drink energy drinks? I'm not supposed to. I do literally because sometimes I physically can't stay awake because I've got no sleep. so for work I will, but I really... Only when you're dying. What? Okay, I do feel a little gaslit at Raising Cane's, I'm not gonna lie. Their menu said, like, our iced tea lemonade, fresh every day. And I said, can I get an iced tea lemonade? And they said, one Arnold Palmer? And I was like, I only didn't say Arnold Palmer because your menu said iced tea lemonade. Well, that is what an Arnold Palmer is. I know, but... Maybe they can't for legal reasons. I don't understand. You weren't listening. When you re-watch this, you'll hear what I said. I know, but that is what that is. It's very sweet. That is what that is, though. No, it is. I know. I would have ordered an Arnold Palmer, but their menu said Icy Lemonade, so I went with their verbiage. Got it. I understand. And then when I went with their verbiage, the person, the drive-thru said an Arnold Palmer. I was like, oh, fuck me in the ass. I have the same issue with Starbucks, because sometimes they'll be like, oh, you want that kid's temperature? Because I'm like, I want it warm, not hot. They're like, oh, kid's temperature. And I go, okay, yeah, kid's temperature. And then I go back and I say, can I have a kid's temperature? And they go, What does that mean? What does that mean? Thank you so much for waiting. Thank you. Have a good one. Wow, gorgeous. Let me just make sure that this is on. Here's my side of Coast Law. Are you going to share that with us? No. Is that not a parking spot? It's a very small side. Really where I wanted to park. I will say there is a thing that happens nowadays when I'm in a car and I see a car coming towards me or everything panics in me for five seconds. He has PTSD and that is expensive. This, oh, I guess I can just back straight into this spot. That never used to be a thing. It's probably extra scary to be in a car with Rylan behind the wheel. Well, we only got one thing of sauce and it's like a half thing. We should each have a sauce inside of our sauce, I would assume. Inside of our sauce. I mean, inside of our box. I know, but like, don't we need more than a thing of sauce? Okay, well, nobody enjoy yourself because there's something we have to do. What do we have to do? Well, the secret menu of it all is that you're combining it all into... Poop that you drop off at the toilet later. No, we're making... I'm so excited. Lizzie's face is taking the focus. You didn't get any coleslaw for everyone. Oh, shit. You're going to have to share your coleslaw. I thought... You guys all know I hate sharing. There's not two pieces of bread either? No. Oh, fuck. You blew it and we were all lauding you. There's a meal that comes with coleslaw. There really is. And two pieces of bread. Yeah. Wow, Ryan. We thought you did so good. I'm so sorry. It's okay. We need more sauce anyways. Yeah. Okay, once we have the food, we'll pick back up. Okay, girls. We're back. But my parking spot's now gone. Oh. Should I cry? Oh. Oh. What are they going to do? I don't know. Two take two to Colin Moore. Where are these people going? They're telling you to come, but you guys don't understand we have an agenda. Yeah, I'm trying to film. We're looking for light. Thank you for the, um, what's it called? Freaking people. I'm looking for light. Wow, that's a real-ass painter. Oh, God. Oh, God. Everyone's ruining my life. There's a dick five sporting goods. A dick five? Dicks. Big five. Oh, my gosh. Wait. What kind of a Freudian slip was that, you fucking homo? Wait. Was that not a sporting store? There's never been a dick five. There's been a dicks and a big five. Okay. I put them together. But dicks was. What did I call it? Dick five. God bless you. Honestly, that sounds like a better story. They should just combine forces and move it on. And it's all dicks. But only five. Okay. Let me move this for Chris's camera. Well, I had to go back for coleslaw and bread, so... And sauce. Coleslaw and bread. Oh, they only have forks, I guess. Yeah. Thank you. So, how are you girls feeling? I'm feeling really optimistic. I've eaten about a fourth of the fries. How are they? Galicious. Delicious? No, galicious. Too fun. I misspoke. You know, we all do it from time to time. Yeah. Dicks. Big goods. Dick fun. Big dick goods. Big dicks good. Big dick. Dick and goods. Dicky goods. You know what's going to be so enraging for you? As a person who just picked up an extra piece of toast for me. I might make a slider, dude. Okay. Well, I needed the coleslaw no matter what. Yeah, we needed that coleslaw. Okay. So, the bread does look delicious. The sauce looks delicious. Lizzie says the fries are fantastic. The fries are fucking. They fuck? They fuck. Who are they fucking? Everyone. Wow. And we're all fucking. Okay, I would like to take a moment to get thumbnails. Oh, hold on. What should I put? I guess somebody should make a sandwich, right? Oh, I'll make my slider. Everything goes into the Sandy, right? Oh, you can't talk because you're thumb nailing. So everything goes into this? Okay, cool, cool, cool, cool. Wow. The chicken is delicious. You know, I've been shitting on Raising Cane since the last time we had it. Yeah. And I don't think it's how the food tastes. I think it's how I remember I felt afterwards. Yeah. Spencer was also saying he does not feel good afterwards. He said every time he does not feel good. I love Raising Cane's with the sauce, but I feel like without the sauce, everything's too boring. It's a bust. Oh, whoa. Yeah, you got a thumbnail with the sandwich. Can you get closer at all? No. Oh, hold on. No. Oh, that's good, too. Okay, stop there. I'll just come closer to you. How come I didn't get this off? Oh, I did. It's hiding. Really showcase the... Can you do it like... Yeah. This guy's walking by and laughing. No, he's laughing at somebody else. It's a hard job, but somebody has to do it. You want to get in here and eat with us? Oh, wow, Lizzie really executed on making... Are you not making yours? I need the other bread. Oh, I was going to make a slider, too. Oh, should we do slider? No, no, no. Make a full one. I forgot that we got more bread. I'm an idiot. Oh, there's lots of sauce in there if you want more. We'll definitely take another sauce. Okay, and you got the coleslaw, too? So you just put it all together? There's no rhyme or reason? Yep, you just build your sandwich. Okay. Fries have to be included. Fries have to be included. How? Well, that's the law for the secret menu. I'll figure it out. Wait, I'll put coleslaw that'll hold the fries in place. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. And, okay, Lizzie, what's your review? Because you've already got it. Wow, you're an efficient person. I'm going to put sauce on top and bottom. I do, too. You did. Yeah, I top... You're so talented. I top and bottomed my buns. Did you thumbnail, Chris? I did. Okay, great. I was just holding a piece of chicken. So it's good. Okay. It needs the coleslaw. Otherwise, it's too salty. Really? Mm-hmm. And did you do full fries? Mm-hmm. Okay. Wow, okay I feel like I'm making it Oh wait, did I not get my side of coleslaw? Oh, I did How's the coleslaw individually? It's great Really? Mm-hmm Okay, let me Well, I have a whole bite of sauce I don't know that I need the bread Oh This is refreshing Yeah, it's good And is it mayo? Or like, what's the binding factor in coleslaw? I believe it's mayo There's mayo there's like, I think there's some vinegar in it. There's sugar. Have you ever had Wood Ranch's coleslaw? No. I love their coleslaw. It's the only one that doesn't have mayo. But I love it. What does it have? I don't know. Did you do two or one nuggies? I did a nuggie. I don't think two would fit with one piece of bread. No, I did a nuggie and I split it. I can't believe you're upset by the bread. I just like a lot of salt. A lot of salt. The bread's salty? Mm-hmm. Why is the bread so salty? Mm-hmm. That's weird, right? Yeah. Do you think they came on it? It almost tastes like it's from the ocean. No. Like, there's not a seafood tang, in your opinion? No. Is there one in yours? Uh-huh. Well, that substantiates my cum conclusion. Okay. Oh, my God! Wow, that's crisp. Okay, the full one looks better visually That's gorgeous, Chris Chris, you really did that Let me take a picture of you It's turning me on You dipped and did it Wow Wow, Chris's day just got better Chris got fucked in the ass After being so positive That'll teach him Yeah, life hates it when I'm positive That's wild. Mmm. Mmm. It is good. Yeah. Did you try dunking in sauce on top of the sauce? Yeah, the sauce is very peppery. This is very good so far, but very hard to eat. Mm-hmm. Extremely hard to eat. The slider's nice and, like... Manageable. Mm-hmm. Maybe a slider's the way to go. This is... What chicken place did we go to last That I was like this is the best one There is Oh yes Do you think Dave's Is also owned by Canes So that they can be in competition with each other But constantly succeeding That would be crazy Which individual Item is the best For me, I think it's the fries. Really? Yeah, the tendies, or the strippies, nothing to write home about. Honestly. The more that I'm getting into this, the more I really like it. I need a lot of sauce, though. But I actually really like it. It's such a mess, though. The coleslaw's nice. Mm-hmm. So what's in your agenda? You're going to go home. You, your whole family will be there. Yeah, I'm going to go fuck around and find out. What are you guys going to do all night? We're going to, you know, rage until the bitter end. Well, it's so fun. I wish my family was in town. I wish your family was in town, too. You already have your family. I know. You can come hang out with my family if you want. Should I bring my children? Yeah, you can. Vicky's going to be nasty, though. That's actually really good. How do you think of this? Are you just very high? Oh, sandwich? I don't know. It's just the convenience of it. A sandwich is more convenient than three strips. If you can get strips down with like one hold. So that's what I be thinking about when I'm tired. I'm like, what can I eat the fastest? It did say on the Instagram post that inspired this, this Raising Cane's secret menu item is now a part of the menu, but I didn't see it on the menu. So they're liars. I guess so. I agree with you. Every time you dunk it in the sauce, it's good. Way better. Yeah. So it is a little sauce dependent. Oh, to me, Cane's is nothing without the sauce. Well, Cane's is only sauce Everything else is just like a breaded chicken And I will say the breadedness of the chicken Like the fry of it is good The flavor though Bland There is none I guess they're leaving it all to the sauce Which I don't like Is it popular? Yeah, people buy it in the cups No, not the sauce Cane's in general Is it popular or do they just pay for a lot of marketing? Well, they have buildings popping up all over. Yeah, I mean, if they're expanding, it must be doing well. From all the marketing. I mean, but if the marketing's working, it's working. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Wow. Are we going to talk about the gorgeous woman at the drive-thru that I might need to propose to? Oh, no. She made you straight. She was stunning. She was so pretty. She was worth going back a second time for. We didn't see her the first go around. Should we go back a third time and see if we get her again? Mm-hmm. I'll have to propose. Me too. You have two children. How easy I forget. Honestly, I'm bored without the bread. Now that my sandwich is over, I'm bored. Well, you have to have, like, I'm, like, doing the sandwich in bites with, you know? So the sandwich is necessary. Yeah. Raising Cane's is nothing without their sandwich. It isn't on menu. They should make a sandwich bread that's thicker And like you know makes sense for a sandwich And turn this into an actual thing Because it's great I know they have a bun But that's not this Wait do they have a sandwich already They have a sandwich it's not this though It's like It's like a loser sandwich Only losers get that one I've noticed that Thank you Joe and I had a funny conversation about what a vasectomy okay and he was like both of us were like it makes us sad so are we having a third can my body I thought we even named your third we did Esther I'm having a third boy named Ralph I mean I want a girl but like then who's going to be named Ralph do we have a girl Ralphie I don't know No. Raffaella? Shane's not ready yet. What's going to get him ready? 1.5 years. He said that? Well, I said that. I said you don't have a choice in 1.5 years. Jesus. That's so awful. No, he'll want another. It's just hard when you're in the thick of two, you know? Oh, I know. You have moments where you're like, I need a third. but it's like can we mentally and physically handle a third like in a healthy way for every party involved no like we'd all be stretching it a little too thin yeah and then like you know death to everyone yeah my body couldn't handle it and then if i wait longer i'd be 38 your husband will be 88 my husband will be 92 also like every kid i have i get i know i am older like i get older every year like we all do it's crazy but every child i have makes me feel like the previous child was a hundred years previous like i was a young thing a spring chicken you had billy yeah and now i'm a million years old i've been spiraling a lot recently i'm choking there's so much food I've been spiraling a lot recently about Because I've always wanted kids But I'm getting old And I don't want to like Get your boyfriend pregnant dude Joe's 85, you're fine I just don't, I don't know I don't want my kid to be in middle school And I'm like, done I can't be active at all Do you know what I mean? I don't know So I'm like, there's a part of me that's like You better go propose to her Do I just I've been telling you Chris, just get some girl pregnant It's not that hard It's not that hard Is the problem You can't get hard With a female Have you heard of a turkey baster I think it's that simple I suppose No I think it's that simple I might be stupid Ask chat GPT Do you have chat Do you have chat Can you ask chat right now If you can just come into a turkey baster and squalier. Well, I know that you can. I know somebody who was successful doing that. Literally using a turkey baser from the kitchen? Mm-hmm. No way. Who did it? Name names. I'm not gonna name names. It's everyone's business now. I'm like the villain in Don't Breathe. But yeah, I mean, is it that much different from... Wait, the villain in... Is that a huge spoiler alert? No. Whoa. Maybe. Yeah. Sorry! Are you looking for bread? I need more sauce! Oh, more sauce. Here you go. Wow, I fear I'm going to be sick. I'm already sick. Should I just not eat those last four french fries? That I needed more sauce for. That's really going to make her break. Wow. Delish. Oh, my dad's texting. What does he want? He's probably jealous he's not here. Or he just arrived to your house. Or he's bailing. Are they going to a spa? No. Your silence is killing us. I wasn't listening. I know. What's going on? My parents are going to come over to my house around 2.30. No, 3.15. They're going to make barbecue salmon cooked in the oven. Dinner will commence at 5.30. Gigi and Papa will depart between 5.50 and 6.00 p.m. Why are they on such a tight ship? There is a, like, March Madness basketball game that they want to watch. wow and are they going to go to like a bar in west hollywood no they're going to watch it in their bedroom in west hollywood oh why can't they watch it at your house in venoise because it ends at like 9 p.m oh yeah did you just dox me i think you did the real housewives of van uys at one point in time it's valley glenn whatever lets you sleep at night it is valley glenn no your neighborhood's actually really cute.
