I guess I'll start this conversation by telling you guys that I broke my own rule and it involves fast food, which I think, Spencer, you told that this is going to be a fast food themed call. And so it kind of fits. And I have this rule and like I get it if like not everybody feels the same way, but I think it's important, but I broke it. And my rule is that like fast food drive-thrus, the drive-thrus for people that know what they want. If you've never been to this place before, the drive-through is not the place to go and figure it out unless you're like a quick decider. And there's nothing that bothers me more than, I mean, it depends. Like a Sonic, for example, there's lots of, there's lots of drive-through. That's what they do.

0:38.0

That makes sense.

0:38.9

But when it's like a small restaurant and you've got the one drive-through, the one drive-through window and the one lane and that's it. And you're just sitting there taking forever being like, I don't know, what's in a Big Mac? Shut up. Move on. That said, I did it at Burger King today.

0:52.7

You asked what's in a Big Mac and a Burger King?

0:56.5

Yeah, that was a problem. And I didn't get it. But yeah, I got it. I got into this Burger King and I got Burger King breakfast food thinking it would be somewhat similar to like McDonald's or anywhere decent. We're not sponsored by Burger King. That's about to become obvious.

1:11.5

But anyway, their breakfast food, I like Burger King burgers.

1:15.0

No, their breakfast food is.

1:16.3

Man, it's weird that you're saying quality, like McDonald's.

1:19.8

And then citing McDonald's as like an example of quality breakfast.

1:24.9

Okay.

1:25.9

That says more about Burger King than it does McDonald's.

1:30.0

I mean, it says a lot more about your bar for excellence.

1:34.4

Yeah.

1:36.9

That's actually fair.

1:38.7

So you guys might have noticed an extra laugh back there.

1:40.5

And that laugh actually comes from Patrick Pianzza.

1:43.6

And the reason Patrick Pianza is so

1:45.9

damn cool is because he is responsible. I don't know if that's the word you want me to use, but he is

1:51.9

responsible for much of the writing that went into the recent very critically acclaimed. I mean,

1:58.4

it's everywhere movie Code 3. It's a brilliant movie that both

2:02.8

Spencer and I got to see early because we were special. We also had Rain Wilson on the show

2:06.8

earlier to talk about the movie as well and to run through a call with us. And since then,
