Hey, Jeff.

Hey, Eric.

How are you?

I'm pretty good.

How are you?

Doing well, thank you.

We are currently here in New York City. In between trips, we went to Los Angeles last week. We came back, and on Thursday we're going down to Austin, Texas for our second South by Southwest in a row. Yes. And the nice thing about leaving New York for South by Southwest is that you see everybody from New York down at South by Southwest. And Nardwar.

And Nardwar, who runs after you down the street with a microphone going,

Who are you? Southwest is that you see everybody from New York down at South by Southwest. And Nardwar.

And Nardwar who runs after you down the street with a microphone going, who are you?

It's Nardwar in the wild. Yeah. I mean, like, he's just throwing vinyl at people.

So I'm, Jeff, I'm looking forward to going down there because obviously Austin is one of the

great food cities in America. And last year, I didn't get to experience

anything. Like sat down for barbecue, ordered it and couldn't eat it because I was suffering

from the world's worst sinus infection all week. So didn't need a thing. This year, I vow to make up

for all of that. I'm going to come back a fat man. That is a goal. I am just there to eat. You goal to eat. You want to eat, you want to touch your food, you want to touch everybody's food. I'm there to touch everyone's food, me and Jeff and Nardwar. Don't put me into this. I'm not. We're going to be the new fat boys, the three of us. You're looking forward to going down there as well. I'm looking forward to getting out of New York. There's some bad energy up here. I went to, in what way? I went to our local salad place, sweet green. You know, it's like a Chipotle format, right? Like you build your own salad. You build your own bear. Yeah. And I get 90% of the way through. I've made my salad.

And they say the dressing that comes with this salad, we don't have any of it. None of it. None of it. They're out. Go fuck yourself. Damn. So you went without any dressing? No. What they said is choose another one. And so I am looking at the list. I'm like, none of these dressings make sense. Am I going to put a lime milkshake on my salad?

No.

You're going to go for the garlic option? No. None of these things make sense. So I was just like, I don't know. I'll choose the ginger dressing, which I do like the ginger dressing, but I like it on another salad. Did you choose the ginger because it was the least offensive or because it caught your eye? Well, like I said, I like it on another salad. So I was just like, whatever. Like, nothing's going to taste good. I might as well get this. And I order it and the girl behind the counter, one is pouring it on, another girl goes, that's disgusting. Out loud. Out loud. Bad energy or just bad customer service? I don't know. And so, you know, you pay for the thing and they hand you the salad and the girl then, I guess, made me notice that she had said it out loud and she goes, that's going to taste so good. She lied. Wait, wait, which time did she lie? Was she lying in the first place

or the second place? Well, let me tell you, not the greatest tasting salad I've ever had. Not the worst. But I was just like, man, like, I can see it in your eyes. You're just a liar. Like, you're lying to me. Do you think that you would rather her tell you the truth that it's going to taste shitty or she should have been like listen

we're all friends here this this was not a good choice she should not have put that salad

dressing on what she should have done is scraped the inside of the container gotten the remnants
