Summary

Before Neo learned to read the green rain of code that made up the Matrix, before even Sherlock Holmes devised a way to describe a man based on a glance at a forgotten walking stick, restaurant kitchen staff were doing pretty much the same thing every time a new order ticket came into their kitchens. Dave, Chris, and Noelle dig into what can be gleaned from those black-and-white lines listing entrées and appetizers and share a few stories about how it's gone right and wrong for them, before Dave lays out a guide for diners who want to do better, and pulls back the curtain on the rare jewel that is the Money Piece.Host: Dave Chang and Chris Ying Guest: Noelle Cornelio Producer: Chelsea Stark-Jones Additional Production: Jordan Bass and Chris Sutton Learn more about your ad choices.

0:00.0	I'm Charles Holmes, the Ringer Music Show, and I'm Cole Kushner from Dicec, and Charles and I
0:05.2	are teaming up to create Last Song Standing, a new show where we determine an artist's single best
0:10.2	song by debating our way through their entire catalog. And for our first season, we're covering Kendrick
0:15.9	Lamar. We're talking Good Kid, to Pimple Butterfly, Dan, Miss Morale, to Mix Tapes, the Lucy's,
0:21.3	and the features. Listen to Last Song Standing on the Dicec podcast feed only on Spotify.
0:40.0	Welcome to the Day of Change Show, part of the Ringer Podcast. Now we're presented by Major
0:43.2	Delma Media. Thank you, Yolotango, as always. I was watching the Matrix. I've rewatched the Matrix
0:51.1	so many times, and I think it came out in 1999. I just had a new one that I enjoyed, where Neo's
0:58.0	back. If you haven't watched the Matrix, please do. It's a great movie, Keanu Reeves, Big Fan,
1:04.4	and this is going to be a giant leap of logic for anyone that hasn't seen the Matrix, or
1:09.8	hasn't worked in the back of the house or restaurants in general. But please stay tuned, because I
1:16.9	think this is going to be very informative for somebody that wants to go to restaurants, wants to get
1:23.9	a better understanding of the mechanics of how things work, and what I'm about to say,
1:30.2	may just make your food better, it literally may get better, it may improve your dining experience.
1:37.6	The reason I bring up the Matrix is one of the things I really enjoy about the films in general,
1:44.4	but not the shooting bullets in the slow motion. I love the concept that you could look at a bunch of
1:52.1	code, right? These falling green letters and decipher something that no one else can decipher.
1:58.9	It doesn't have to be the Matrix. I just love any kind of sport, industry, organization,
2:04.8	anything, anything that people are using and extrapolating information in a way that no one else
2:10.9	couldn't quite understand. What looks normal to most people looks very different to everyone else.
2:17.2	And why I'm saying it's certain organizations and certain clubs and certain groups, it's because
2:23.8	they spend so much time focusing on it that they see things differently. They hear things differently.
