0:02 Good morning. We are live and I'm just checking. Audio good? Yep. Video good? Good. Hope you guys are having a good Saturday morning. It is Jack Scalfani from the Cooking with Jack show on the live stream for Cooking with Jack. So anyway, we'll give it a minute or two for me to load in, but everything seems good. Let me see. My camera dragging.0:34 My camera's not tracking. I look like an idiot right now. Hold on, let me see if I can get into tracking mode. No, I'm in tracking mode. Let's see again. There we go. No, it's still not tracking. Okay, I guess I'm on the computer camera. Good job, Jack. Let's see. I might as well turn that off right now.01:04 There we go. All right, now we can concentrate. Hey, guys, how you doing? You know, today is all about you. The channel... I filmed the crab ragoon garlic bread yesterday because you guys voted for it. So, a lot more about you. The channel is about you. So...01:30 Good morning. Let's get started with more Ask Me Anything. Once again, I got great moderators, family, food, and fun. F's and Frank is later on today. That will be everything. But today, this morning, we're doing family, food, and fun. So don't ask questions that are like F's and Frank questions.02:01 I'll let you know if you ask a question that shouldn't be asked. So, once again, the moderators are good. They give good warnings. They give second chances. They don't put you in the boys club right away, but, you know, they're good people, and I appreciate them. So, anyway, let's start.02:30 What is the best gadget you have had in your kitchen? Ironically, the best gadget I've ever worked with is probably, gosh, the best gadget.02:49 I would say, you know, that smoking tube I used, it's for barbecuing. It's not in the kitchen. If it's in the kitchen, I use the avocado tool a lot. What else?03:09 Yeah, and kind of the all-in-one, like a bottle opener and a can opener, and it's a blue multipurpose tool. I use that a lot. But the thing that most impresses me is the smoking tube because so many people out there, including you, they want to smoke me, but they can't because they don't have a smoker.03:39 For like $35, $40, you can get the smoking tube. Or for another $40, you can get the, it's called a snake. And it's a tray where you put the pellets and you burn the pellets. And it turns your gas grill into a smoker for $35, $40.04:00 I've raved about that since I came to know it. It's been out a while. So if you want to try smoking meat, but you don't want to put out $800 for a smoker, great. I got a video. It's called Lazy Man's Smoker. And I probably will be putting that in the Jack University class. Things you can do, little tips.04:28 you know, lessons, ways to get around. I'm also going to do a video on shopping techniques. That's later, though. Let's see here. Oh, yeah. Yeah, let's get all the food jacks are pouring in right now. So let's...04:54 You know, the pressure cooker is also a big thing on my show. It's real simple, guys. Some of you are afraid of pressure cooking. If you like slow cooking, but you don't like waiting four to eight hours, then put in the pressure cooker. It's like slow cooking for eight hours. I put them side by side. Just as good, just as tender. Put a pot roast in a slow cooker, eight hours.05:22 Put a pot roast in a pressure cooker, same ingredients, same recipe, same flavors. Basically, you can, oh, is that Tammy? Hey, Tam?05:39 Hey, can you close my door behind me? Please. Thank you, sweetheart. Sorry. She's heading out to help a friend. So anyway, pressure cooker, 20 minutes. Same pot roast, same ingredients. Thank you. So if you don't got time, you ain't got all day.06:04 20 minutes, no lie. You don't believe me? I've done the video where I did it side by side. The pressure cooker, beside the slow cooker, just as good. Let's see here. What is the most you'd pay for a decent fast food combo?06:28 10 bucks, 11 maybe. If not, why not just buy the materials and make it yourself? You know, I got to do that, by the way. I got to do that. I got to buy something in a restaurant, bring it back to the kitchen, recreate it for less, and show you guys how to do it. Like, for example...06:55 Come on, a ribeye in a restaurant is $40 and above. I've seen them $100, but a ribeye steak is usually around $40. You can get a beautiful ribeye for $20. Hold on a minute. Got to clear my throat.07:32 I am so sorry about that. You can go to the store, buy a beautiful ribeye, $20, $25 maybe, bring it home, cook it, put a potato for $1, $1.50. I mean, guys, we are blowing money. We complain about the cost of prices. We complain about gas. We complain about interest rates. We complain about everything money, but we pay for DoorDash.08:03 But we don't cook. We do all these things that take our money. And we're okay with that. So, if we're going to be lazy, we're okay with that. But everything else, wah, wah, wah. It's the whamulans. DoorDash should be banned. You know, DoorDash, it laughs at you guys.08:27 cracks up i mean it's probably one of the best ideas uber uber eats um more than uber uber is a great service you go out drinking you get an uber you got to go to the airport you get an uber i mean i see why uber exists and i see the benefit uber eats not so much08:56 You know, even if you have to go out, do me a favor. Go get your own food. Unless you can't. I get it. There's always that person in the back of the room goes, well, what if you chain to a wall and you can't get to, you know, a restaurant or something? Okay. Like nurses that work 12 hours. I get it. Bring it to the hospital. It's all good.09:21 I totally get that. But overall, they're laughing at you. DoorDash is like, oh, my gosh. America's so lazy and we're so rich. I know people. I literally, when I rode with a guy, he was DoorDashing. I was filming him. Oh, no. He was Uber Eats, I think. Anyway, they paid more for delivery than the food.09:51 When you get to that point, it's scary. Any plans to have a meat smoke-off versus AI video? I can plan on that. Excuse me. I can plan on that, but I'm not sure...10:15 Because it's really not AI smoking the meat. It's me smoking it and me smoking it. I mean, it's still going to taste the same overall. But let me think about it. Maybe...10:33 There's something different. I just can't get it all on top of that because I feel like it's really not AI doing it. Now, if you brought an AI robot to smoke me, that'd be cool. But I ain't got one of those. I'm against online. Online church. I will never tip DoorDash.11:03 Yeah, that's another thing. I think I've never done DoorDash. I was around one time when my sister-in-law did DoorDash. So I didn't really see much of it. She did it all. But I think they can tell whether you tipped or not. That scares me.11:24 Because if you don't tip, I mean, I've heard door dashers taking the food. I've heard door dashers spitting in your food. I mean, I've heard some horror stories. Once again, door dash, maybe 1% of door dash has a legitimate reason to use the service.11:48 But, and I don't know how true the horror stories are because, you know, it's 2026. Everything's fake. Everything's a lie. But I just wouldn't trust some stranger. And then you got a tip. It's not a tip. It's insurance. It's insurance. You get your food all nice. But anyway, let's see.12:19 Let's see, I heard there's a Chili's on the moon. Okay, great. Check it out and take pictures. Let me know what you think. Let's see, they need a Patriot Uber version. My Uber drivers are always foreigners.12:42 You know, I don't care. I don't care who's driving as long as they're legitimate drivers. They can drive a car and not kill me and get me to where I need to go. I don't care what nationality they are, honestly. Hey, get ready because I reported fast food places like in California and in New York are avoiding minimum wage.13:12 They're hiring people overseas to take your orders at fast food counters. There's a monitor right there. You're talking to, sometimes it's AI. Serious. So you're talking to like nobody or you're talking to somebody overseas. This way they can pay slave wages. Out here they get away with it right here in Tennessee. If you're a waitress, I think it's $2.50 an hour.13:41 Who the frick can live off that? I hate everything about that. Don't get me wrong. There's a fine line and a good line between horrible slave wages and firing the servers. Well, not the servers, but the order takers and using AI. There's a happy medium. We probably won't visit that happy medium again.14:11 employers will it's all about the money guys they'll jump to AI order takers or they'll jump because the overseas people are being paid in fact I heard they're being paid more than the waitresses here in Tennessee like women in Thailand are making three bucks an hour to take orders here in America it's crazy but it is what it is uh14:42 Okay, by the way, there is an AI backlash. It really is happening. It does exist. So you're still going to see it. As long as companies can make money at it, people can be lazy with it.15:02 Yeah. Then they're going to do it. Like, hey, I slop. I mean, come on. People are like, hey, you know, you can make these faceless videos on YouTube, you know, and make all this money. And now we're flooded with this crap. So, not my problem. But, hey, Jack, are you still up? Come on. No, no.15:36 I don't know what you're talking about, but Hey, thanks for the five bucks. I'm not sure. I'm not on prednisone, but anyway, so, um, but yeah, so we looking, I don't know if we'll see it in Tennessee for many years. I don't know. My dog's outside barking or something. Stupid dog. Anyway, uh,16:07 Let's see here. I see an email with a recipe. No, I did not. What was the recipe? Okay, do me a favor. Friend me on Facebook, on Instagram, or on X. Any one of those three. Send me the recipe and I'll get it. All right. Let's see.16:38 Okay, if I use AI, it's only for helping a photograph. I didn't get the right picture. I lost it. Usually, I try to get a good shot of what I made and use that in the picture. But every so often, I'll put together with AI. You guys get over that. It's just a picture. Okay, it's not replacing people's jobs.17:07 It's not out to kill you. You just got to go get a job, go get a life. Once again, I've said it a million times, AI is a tool. You don't use it to replace what you do. You use it to help what you do. So that's it. That's how I feel. So if it assists you, if it proofreads what you typed up, I get it.17:36 If it typed it up, I don't get it. That's how I feel. So, you know, I've, let's see here. Thank you once again, Lebanon. Oh, the Blumpkin pie. Yeah, I was waiting for that. I didn't get that.18:03 Let me go into a spam folder and look for it. Let me see. Hold on. Let's take a look. Where's spam? Oh, yeah. I got like 2,000 spam emails. Crap.18:18 Okay, instead of going through all those right now, do me a favor, send the recipe through social media. I know I'll get that. You know, me and the people who help me will be looking for it, okay? But thank you. No, send it. There's no part of me that says, Blumpkin Pie, I'm not going to do that. But let me take a look at it because it may be interesting.18:49 grandma recipes always are you gotta love grandma's cooking serious uh let's see um yeah uh let's see if there's any other questions i'd rather see pictures of actual food19:10 Yeah, I know you want to see pictures of actual food. I like, honestly, I use pictures of the food that I cook, like the crispy, like last night's video. That was a picture of what I cooked. But sometimes you can do it. You haven't edited it yet. You don't know where the picture is.19:34 Lately, I've been working on thumbnails first. So if I got a picture of the food, I'll throw it in. You know, it all depends, guys. Yep. I mean, I'm not going to sit here and say, I 100% show the food. Nope.19:54 I 100% use AI. Nope. I mean, you know, you need to relax. Honestly, me making food pictures with AI is the least of your concerns regarding AI. Job replacements, killing humans, getting into your finances, those are AI things you need to worry about.20:23 I don't know if they'll ever happen, but you should always keep your head on a swivel. That's all. I don't think AI is going to attack humans. That was a joke. So, again, to explain for those of you who didn't realize. Hold on a minute. Much better. All right. So let's talk about last night's video. Wait, I think it said people use AI.20:54 to replace pictures of themselves it always looks so creepy okay so the pictures I think twice it made a pic it used my image to make a picture otherwise21:12 I take the picture like on my computer and then I put it in or I give AI the picture of me and putting it in. That's what I try to do. So anyway, you know, once again,21:31 You know, if you can't get over it, I'm sorry. But every so often, I'm going to use this tool if I need to. Once again, if I got a great shot, I'm using that. If the burger looks good, really freaking good, of the burger, for example, let's say I'm like, oh, you got to make this burger. You guys have seen me get to an end of a video. I'm like, that's awful. Don't make that. I've done that before. Okay.22:01 So I probably won't put that burger in the thumbnail, but I'll always be honest, okay? Honest and real. I'll make my own food. You know, I'm not going to use AI video showing sauteing, showing cutting an onion. Hey, and I do cut onions by myself. I can do it one-handed. There are, oh, and I'm going to review that too.22:29 There was a one-handed cutting board that holds things for you. I'm going to review that. I think it's only like 50 bucks. But I'm going to review that and show you if it works or not. But I can cut bell peppers, onions, everything, carrots, one-handed. Thankfully, you got to keep your knife sharp. Thankfully, my knives are sharp. So...22:59 People are rebelling using AI. Yep. And that's fine. My AI images are misleading. Wow. I'm sorry. You're being misled. You know, if I'm cooking a burger and I use a picture of an AI burger, um, I'm sorry. You were misled that it was a burger. Oh wait, it was a burger. Uh,23:27 I'm not sure how I'm misleading, but, you know, especially since I'm honest and I tell you in the video, this is crap. Don't make this. I always do that. Or this is really good. Luckily, I haven't done crap in a while. Thankfully. Thankfully.23:50 There's so many. You guys have no idea how many recipes I have stocked up that I want to do. They look good. But you know what?24:03 Why won't I do a recipe that looks good? Okay. Is because I don't think it's for you guys. I know what you guys like. I know you like cheap, inexpensive, delicious, quick. I mean, all those things. If I'm not going to do like...24:26 Okay, Julia Roberts, not Julia Roberts, stupid idiot, Julia Child. Okay, Julia Child has some recipes that look phenomenal, but when you read the recipe, you're like, frick that, no way. I'm not going to make anything. I'm not going to ask you to make anything that I won't make because her stuff is like wicked hard.24:56 1,000 recipes. I mean, ingredients. I'm messing up my words. 1,000 ingredients. And like, okay, so you're going to saute the onions, then throw them in the pot. Then you got to cut up the pearl onions, drizzle them in olive oil, sprinkle with garlic, throw them in. Every ingredient, you got to do something. It's wicked hard.25:20 That's why after I did that Julia child month, I thought, probably not doing her again. She's really difficult. A lot of her stuff. It's not the same burger. Okay. Uh, once again, I'm sorry you felt misled. I don't know what to say. Uh,25:45 You know, I just, I prefer longer and more complex recipes. You know, like, okay, what would I make that is a longer recipe? When I made the, was it Gordon Ramsay's, was it Beef Wellington? That was worth it. When I made the, when I did make the Julia Child Beef Bourguignon, that was worth it. So there are long recipes.26:16 But once again, if I can do it, I always say, if you can't cook, you can still do it. So, everybody prefers something different. You know, yeah, Julia Child, I loved her. I didn't watch her when she was around, but26:42 I watch her older stuff. I read her stuff. She was very, she, man, she made it big in a rough time. You know, she did great things, guys. She was a good person. Let's see here.27:06 And Candy, I do hear what you're saying. So, by the way, when you guys say stuff, I take it to heart. So, I may not agree right this second, but five minutes after I'm off the air, I'll decide, okay, that's it. From now on, it's strictly shots of the food from the video.27:29 If I have it. So I will let you know. But I do understand your concern. And I do understand savory pies. Yeah, I'm not into the pie month. Honestly. Not into the meat pies. Because Americans don't really eat meat pies much. Well, we do. But they're not called meat pies. They're called Hot Pockets.27:59 No, just kidding. But the pie month is not, there's so many other things that I could do a month of. Pies is probably not at the top of that list, but I'm just being honest. Jack, can you remake the running behind the van intro? No.28:22 No. Running is not my thing anymore. Sorry. But, you know, imagine if I put that back in, do a retro. I may do that. Hold on. Okay.28:44 I may do that when I do Bacon Explosion 3. I may do like a retro intro. I'll take the old footage and put that in the beginning. Oh, no, that was Jack on the Go. I can't do that on Cooking with Jack. Cooking with Jack's first intro, I have to go way back. There's been a few of them.29:08 Do you remember the intro with the cookies and the hand came up and took the cookie and then it was me eating the, remember? Anyway, that was kind of cool. That was back way before AI. That took some creative filming. Let's see here.29:34 Yeah, do it in the walker. Yeah, it's not a pretty sight. It would be funny though, wouldn't it? But it's not anything I want to show you guys. I'll have my steak with a cider. Yeah, and then for dessert, have steak. I know. You can't go wrong with steak, guys.30:03 I've never, I mean, you can. You can overcook steak and then it tastes like garbage. But steak pretty much is easy. And everybody loves it. Let's see here. Yeah, I still think you should do a series of videos of you reviewing. Oh, yeah.30:29 So Rob thinks I should go back to like my earlier videos. Hold on a minute. Cough button. Much better. So once again, Rob thinks I should do reaction videos to my old stuff.30:56 Take some of my own ones, right? And, you know, kind of give a reaction, maybe narrate. I don't know. So let me, I guess I need to think about it. I don't know how I'd do that. I would probably add commentary. I probably just wouldn't do this.31:20 I hate that. I think that's the biggest scam of reaction videos. So, uh, lumpkin explosion sounds amazing. That's funny. No recipe for hair pie. Yeah, not, not sounding like a good start. Hair pie. That's like hair mayonnaise.31:50 yeah Rob let me look into let me think about that how I would film that because I want to kind of add to it not just react to it but add commentary so anyway okay so hold on a minute let's see I'm worried about32:22 Oh, you said the recipe already via X. All right, I'll go look for it and send them off. Yeah. So anyway. Jimmy doesn't cook, so collabing with him probably won't happen. And he's like 500 miles away.32:53 Am I just spending money just to post a troll comment? You guys are so funny. Stop it. Oh, and thanks for the money, by the way. You can, I've heard it all. You can tell me to drop dead right now. You can't wait till the next stroke takes me out. I've heard it all. But I do ask that you be insulting with the theme of family, food, and fun.33:21 If you can do that, I'm amazed. But thank you for the money. I appreciate it. I might as well get paid for trolls, right? Let's see here. Hey, Jack, when is the smoked pork chops coming? Okay, so I made...33:44 So last night was the crispy salami cups. Okay, next week is what you voted for, the crab ragoon garlic bread. Maybe I'll do the pork chops next.33:59 Smoked pork chops. I got to look up a good flavor blend for the pork chops. But let me work on that. And then we're wide open, guys. We got nothing planned. I got so much stuff.34:16 So, you know, we're going to probably do a playing with your food or a lazy man recipe, something. I haven't figured it out yet. So hang in there. Smoked pork chops, I'll try to get on after the crab ragout and garlic bread. We'll try and do that.34:38 Okay. Uh, I bought the really thick ones too. I already have them. So I'm serious when I say I want to do that video. It's not just a wish. Yeah. My old videos, I mean, they were what they were. They were old videos. Uh,35:03 You know, okay, the videos that, like, when I screwed up, those videos are hilarious. I love those videos because I really thought I was making Yorkshire pudding, and I wasn't. I was making hockey pucks.35:23 That's hilarious. But the older videos, some of them are just, they're okay. They're just videos. But let me see if I can't pick out some gems and make some commentary. I'm not looking to insult myself, but if I could have done better, I would have done this.35:47 I would commentary that way, how I would have improved that video. But the very beginning, like how to peel an egg, guys, millions of people have viewed that. That's why Jack University works. Like 365,000 people have watched how to fry an egg.36:12 So there's a lot of people out there that don't know the simple things. So we're going to make that series. I started working on a list. Some people don't know what a rolling boil is. Some people don't know what cooking sous vide is. Some people don't know what sautéing is. So these are the lessons. We're going to show you how to do it.36:40 we're going to smoke meat and then we're going to smoke36:44 more, kind of better quality. We're just going to smoke like hamburgers and hot dogs to start. And then we're going to beef it up to beef it up. Get it? I said that. Okay. We're going to bump it up to like pulled pork. Then we're going to bump it up to brisket. Don't start by cooking brisket if you're starting to smoke. Just don't do it.37:13 Too expensive, you know. So I want to make sure you know what you're doing. Is it Paul Porg is my favorite Israeli dish? I don't know. Is that Paul Porg or Paul Porg? I think it says Paul Porg. I don't know what that is. Let's see. But...37:43 Oh, my favorite video that went bad. Let's talk about all my bad videos. I love it. My favorite video that went bad was the first one about making pickles. Oh, yeah. It looked like a jar of poop. Oh, it was awful, guys. Awful. I should probably start with that one. I'm like, I can't believe it. It came out horrible.38:17 Let's see here. Not excited about matzo ball soup. I never wanted to make it. I don't like it. So I probably won't be making that.38:31 That soup in particular, I do like soup. I really do. So when I was a kid, I hated soup. I thought this is a bunch of crap. This is a ripoff. This is poor man's food. That's what I used to think. I'm like, this is just a bunch of water. And then real soups hit my mouth. And I'm like, okay, I can get into that. That's good soup. So I just, I ate crap soup when I was a kid.39:00 You know, my mom, she did the best she could with the little bit she had. So we didn't get the best. You know, we would eat like tomato soup, not clam chowder, you know, stuff like that. And by the way, I like tomato soup, like Panera's tomato soup. I'm cool with. So anyway, are there friends?39:28 Oh, are there frats and sororities at Jack U? No. No, everybody's mixed. But the Boys Club still follows. So there is the Boys Club. If you want to visit it, you can. But I'm not going to put you there. There will be no frats or sororities. Let's see. Yeah, Yorkshire pudding was a big mess. So was poutine. Remember poutine?39:58 Yeah, that didn't come out. It was a little bit better, but it still was horrible. So, the key to poutine, if you know what I'm talking about, poutine is fries, curds, cheese curds, and piping hot brown gravy poured on top, okay? The key to making poutine good is40:24 Is to double fry. The fries. The fries need to be crispy. Well done. To handle all that. I'm just telling you. That's the key. Nobody tells you that in the recipe. But that is the key. A good Canadian friend of mine. Told me the trick. So double fry your fries. Let them cool. Drop them again. Pull them out. And then plate.40:55 uh, eat before you eat, it's so funny, because you guys hold on to these little nuggets that I have said, eat before you eat, if you know, you know, okay, same with, um,41:14 A steak knife can be a tool or weapon. You know, everybody knows social media and AI is like a steak knife. It can be used for evil or good. You guys remember that too. That's too funny. Let's see. Oh, what does that mean? Eat before you eat? Oh, okay.41:43 When you go on a date, you don't want to look like a pig. If you eat a lot, you probably want to eat before you eat. So you have like, especially like a first date, you know, we're talking like a blind date would be perfect. Okay. You don't want to be stuffing your face with food. You want to be having a conversation to getting, getting to know the person. Really? It's not about eating. So if you're famished,42:12 You don't want to be scarfing food down in front of her or him. Um, and you eat before you eat. So you just, you're more like snacking and like first dates going to the movies is horrible.42:29 Don't go to the movies on a first date. Don't do it. Because you're saying, okay, I'm interested in you. I'm interested in sitting in the dark and never talking to you for two hours and then taking you home. What?42:45 Movies are horrible first dates. First dates should be getting to know you dates. Meeting in a coffee house, having lunch, painting and wine. I mean, to where you can converse and learn about the other person. I took my lady out to mini golf. Oh, that's a great first date. Mini golf, guys...43:15 Like Topgolf, Miniature Golf, those are great dates. Okay? Anywhere you go. I took a first date to an amusement park when it didn't take a mortgage payment to get into the park. Okay? I brought a date.43:37 Excuse me. I think that this was at Disneyland. I think it was Disneyland in California. But I had season passes. Anywhere that you can talk uninterrupted is a great first date.44:05 The popcorn trick. I can't believe you brought that up. I've never been on a date. Excuse me. Let's see.44:24 Taking a first aid to a casino, a little expensive. But yeah, that would be considered. As long as you play side-by-side, you guys kind of go see a show. Well, no, you don't want to go see a show. But like, let's say you're playing poker. You play side-by-side, you can talk. Then you go have lunch.44:47 And then you can walk around the casino. If there's animals, if there's some spectacle at the casino, you can watch it together like a water show. Like in Vegas, they have that water show that you're standing outside and the fountains are going, you know. So it depends. Once again, anytime you're at a show where you can't talk, not a good first date.45:16 Uh, yeah. Okay. Somebody, uh, Lebanon asked, is it okay on a first date to send the food back and complain to get the food taken off a bill? Uh,45:36 Yeah, if it's bad, if it's truly bad. If you're just a douchebag and, well, if you're a jerk, basically that's different. But if the food is wrong or bad or whatever, you're paying for it. It better come out the way you ordered or no. You're taking it back and taking it off the bill if you don't want a replacement. If you want a replacement, then you got to pay. I get it.46:06 But I got no problem with sending food back if it's done incorrectly. If it's my screw-up, I deal with it. Usually, I'm like, oh, well, I'm eating it well done. You know, I forgot to say rare, so I'm eating this steak well done. And then you just remember for next time. But if I said, I want my steak as legally rare as you can make it, that's what I always order.46:36 Yeah, make it rare, as legal as possible, as rare as possible, without breaking the law and serving me raw food, you know. But that's what I say. If it comes out well done, it's definitely going back. If it was my mistake, I'll eat it.46:54 Yeah, I got to work on Bible study tonight. I started a new Bible study. It starts tomorrow. We're just going to do a meet and greet tomorrow. We're going to talk about the rules, the format, how we're going to pull this off. So I'll be giving you, we'll chat. I'll be giving all the, if you want to be47:22 In the group, it's on Facebook. I think it's Jack's Online Worldwide Bible Study or something. Who knows? But anyway, yeah, that's tomorrow. Tonight is Ephesus and Frank. Tomorrow is the Bible study. A lot going on. Yesterday I finished filming. So it seems like I'm only doing something. Movie dates are for doing the popcorn trick.47:52 How's little baby, I mean, Atreus? You know, it's funny. If they get AJ's name wrong and is, oh, hold on. Why is the lighting setting camera angles so unprofessional? Hey, let me take a look at your channel. Send me a link to your channel, all right?48:22 I love how you sit here and criticize my channel. Well, show me yours, and let's see how many subscribers you got, how many videos you got. Let's take a look, and then we'll see. We'll see how professional you are, okay? But in the meantime, thanks for the tip. Wow, I'm making a boatload. How'd you get rich, a troll? I'm like, okay.48:54 Yeah, I don't need any more money. There we go. By the way, I'm not a professional. I'm not a professional movie maker. I'm not a professional cook. I'm a home chef and I'm just sharing my food. That's it. It's always been that way.49:23 It always will be that way. If you think it's unprofessional, then you probably shouldn't watch anymore. Well, really, from the looks of it. There we go. Got to ring the bell. Ding, ding. We got another person in the boys club. I don't need your money. So anyway, show Jack yours and he'll show you his. But anyway.49:51 cares if the lights are out of cameras crooked that's not what it's about let's see here uh oh atrium i gotta get back to that i'm sorry atrius you said atrium it's pronounced atrius but thanks for asking about him he50:11 He's gotten to a whole new level. He literally, he's not like an infant anymore. He's trying to stand. He's looking around with purpose.50:28 He is trying to form words, all that. I think he's like, what, seven months? He's going on eight, eight months. So all that should be coming together, talking and walking. Those are probably the next things. I do family food and fun. It is family, so I can tell you I won't linger on this topic long. But he cried yesterday.50:59 Because he wanted to go to the bathroom. I guess he had to go to the bathroom. And he's been going without his diaper in the little kiddie potty.51:12 I don't know how else to say that. But he's reached that stage that he's going in the kiddie potty. So I'm like, wow. He hasn't even formed the dada. That's about all he says. When Junior's not around, that's all he asks for.51:30 Dada, dada, dada. I mean, like, we'll go out shopping because Brianna's always with him. So, you know, that's probably why he's not asking for mama because mama's already there. But, you know, so he's speaking a little bit. He's pooping a little bit. He's talking, you know, he's looking a little bit, trying to stand. All the things are going good.51:58 So, thank you for asking. He's good. Let's see here. You're so funny. No, I...52:18 You know, if I can do anything about it, I'm like, AJ, president's not a thing anymore. You don't want to grow up to be president. Everybody hates the president. We don't want to do that. But anyway, but yeah, AJ will probably grow up to be his own, have his own business. I don't know what it is, but I feel like he's going to be an entrepreneur.52:40 But anyway, it's weird because Junior don't want to take over the show. It's not that he hates the show. It's not. He just wants to do other things. I totally support that.52:56 So, like, when I'm dead and gone, he doesn't have to take over the show. The show dies, too. He gets to do what he wants. It's his life. I don't expect him to take over the show. He can. We wouldn't have to change anything. The name's the same. That works out, huh? So, go figure. So, Jack hit a deer, and I guess...53:25 Was it a deer he hit? I don't know. He got a driving ticket. Maybe he was speeding. I have no idea. But it went on my record. I didn't even know. It's been on my record for over a year. It took me a year to find out that that blemish landed on my record.53:54 I don't know how. They had his license. They had his license plate. I had nothing to do. I wasn't around. But whoever entered into the system entered it under my record, which is pristine, so it just got absorbed. So I guess it's kind of cool. I mean, Jack didn't get a ding. He thought it was funny. Is Artemis...54:24 It's Atreus. Okay, so if you get the name wrong, you probably have not played God of War. It's the little boy. Is it Kratos? His son? The show's coming out. But it's the little boy's name. And it's Atreus. Hold on a minute.54:53 There you go. It's Atreus. So... I bought that one before he was born. Hold on a minute. Sorry about that. Okay. So anyway... What is Atreus in Roblox? No. No, and...55:23 I don't think Brianna and Jack want to be iPad parents. I don't know. That could change. That could change. Right now, they don't want him to have any screen time. They try to spend time with him, interact with him.55:44 uh you know they've seen too many parents growing up slamming an ipad in front of them like it's a babysitter in a restaurant and the kid is no longer a part of the conversation the meal whatever so they i don't think they want to be like that so uh you know uh56:11 He's going to be smart. He's going to be a better person than I am. But I'm okay with that. Let's see here. Oh, autocorrect. I get it. Okay, so you're probably typing Atreus and it's correcting it. I hate autocorrect.56:38 And most of the time, I'm doing all the correcting anyway. How many times do you reread a text message and go, nope.56:46 Didn't mean to say that. Nope. Didn't mean to say that. Let me fix that. That means an S. That means an apostrophe. I try to punctuate even my text messages correctly. I try not to look stupid. Because if I continue to not put a comma where a comma goes, then guess what? That changes over time. Then it becomes sloppy. Then the English language falls apart.57:16 Then all of us become like that. There's certain things that I fight to do. So, first grandchildren are advanced. Let's see. No, I don't hold Atreus...57:46 I'll hug him and hold him more when he walks up to me and I'll grab him and I'll give him a big squeeze and I'll put him on my knee and all that. Right now, it's easier to wait until he can stand on his own and all that. So I try not to handle him too much.58:08 for fear of dropping him. It's just not something I want to do. So it's worth not doing. I snuggle with him. You know, Tammy be holding him. I talk to him. We hang out a lot. You know, Brianna will come visit. Let's see. Uh...58:38 Will you be releasing your digital albums to us? I'm not sure I can do that legally, but I do believe once I'm done, I just finished Under the Box. I've only got eight more to do.59:00 No, maybe six. I think I have six more boxes of records. Once I finish digitizing, I'm at like six, seven hundred songs so far. They're all extended special imports from London. Most of them are dance mixes. But59:23 Yeah, when I'm done, I'm thinking about doing an online radio station with all that music. Rotating, mixing, shuffling, whatever. I'm thinking of how to yet. But it's probably going to be like two terabytes of music. And if you know music, that's a lot of music.59:47 Because music isn't like movies. Music is like 10. Is it gig? Yeah. Hold on, let me look. Now I'm getting into music. Hold on. Let's see how big each song is.1:00:04 let's go there, let's go there, all right, so, oh, megabytes, I'm sorry, anywhere from 10 to 15 megabytes is each song, so, like, I have 500, I'm at, oh, my 500, I'm at 500 songs already, so, I probably got a thousand more,1:00:31 So it's going to take another year at least. I'm doing like 10 a day, 20 songs a day. Once they're all digitized, I may put them up on a radio station where you can listen to them. But I know I can't give them away. I have a few copies as backups, but I can't give them away. You should dress up as Kratos for Halloween.1:01:02 Yeah, I'm the farthest thing from Kratos. Junior probably wouldn't make a better Kratos. We'd have to color his beard. I have no urge to go to the UK. I have a lot of friends. I have a lot of friends at the show.1:01:29 uk i pray for them so much because i do have a lot of people that i know in the uk i can't imagine1:01:40 What they're going through. I know anything goes. In the UK it's kind of like a circus right now. A political circus. So. For those of you who are struggling. You know. I pray for you all the time. I don't know. What that's going to look like. But I do not. I do not.1:02:11 I always wanted to go to Israel and Italy, and now I don't want to go anywhere. There's plenty in my own country. If you've never seen the Grand Canyon, it's gorgeous. There's so many things, so many wonders in the U.S. that I could be the rest of my life traveling, looking at that. Mount Rushmore, the Grand Canyon. I went to the Four Corners.1:02:41 There's literally a spot where four states touch. It's like, it's crazy. And it's on the ground and you can stand in four states at the same time. So crazy.1:03:00 If you committed a crime in one state, but it's legal in the other, and half your foot was in that state, I don't know how that works. But yeah, so the Four Corners was cool. I loved going there. That was fun.1:03:20 probably won't do that again. There's so much I haven't seen, guys. So many, I mean, there's waterfalls galore just in my state alone, you know. So, yeah, I know, you know, okay, the UK government is crazy, okay? But the UK people,1:03:49 are awesome. They're awesome. They're such friendly, good folk that I can't imagine what they go through. I don't know. Maybe they're okay with what's going on. I'm glad I'm not there. But once again, the people are great. I want to be clear about that. The politics, not so much. But hey, I left California for that reason.1:04:19 Let's see. Hoover Dam. Yeah, that's a good thing. You know, I've been to Vegas a gazillion times, and I never went to the Hoover Dam. I've been to Reno. I mean, there's beautiful rock formations in Utah and New Mexico. There's great, great food, like, in Maine, in Florida. So, you know, great seafood there.1:04:48 It's just really crazy. Can you visit California again? I did. I have gone back. I have to have a reason. So we went back to show Brianna our old neighborhood.1:05:07 Was it Disneyland, I think? Oh, no, Knott's. I think we took it to Knott's. So we did go back. Oh, and it was when In-N-Out wasn't in Tennessee. Now that's their home. But she went to California, tried In-N-Out, and said it's way better than Whataburger. I did the video. Go check it out. It's on Jack on the Go. Do you still recommend All-American Water?1:05:37 Yes. I do. The water system that I've had in the last three houses was all American water. And still going. No problem. I like that. They still clean out the contaminants. The whole house is filtered from toilet water to shower.1:06:04 If you have Paul on it for the break, make sure you schedule a five-minute break. Yeah, that's a Paul joke. If you know Paul, every time he filmed with us, he would go to the bathroom first. We go to a new taco place, he's like, oh, I'll be right back. And he'd go to the bathroom. I'm like, dude, you got to always make room. What's going on? So that's what Sumo Boy is joking about.1:06:34 Have you considered visiting Russia? No. No, there's probably, let's see, there's probably 60 countries I'd rather visit first. I literally have no urge. It's like Greenland. I've never thought of Greenland. I never went, oh, I gotta go visit Greenland. Why? I don't know.1:07:03 I'm sure the people are great in Russia. I'm sure the people are pretty much great everywhere. It's the governments that suck. Look at our American government. Holy crap. They've sucked my whole life. They're just good at hiding it. California is the best state. Yeah, well,1:07:29 I joke about it that I would move back to California because everybody's left. Like, everybody has fleed from there. Companies, people, everybody's left because it's, once again, the government, California government, United States government. I mean, that destroys everything. People are happy until the government gets involved. People are good people all over.1:07:59 So, let's see. Yeah, the UK, once again, people are great. I love my UK friends. You're saying that your current government sucks. Oh, just turn on the channel. Well, they lie to you. You can't turn on the channel. But yeah, all governments suck. All of them.1:08:28 I mean, you know what governments don't suck? Nobody goes, you know, we're having trouble over here in Finland. I'm like, or Denmark. I mean, governments you never hear about are probably pretty good. That's why we said if I ever moved again, if I left Tennessee, I would go to a state nobody talks about. And I would never talk about it. I would go to South Dakota.1:08:57 Nobody ever talks about South Dakota. I don't even know if there's people in South Dakota. Literally, I have not. No school shootings. No nothing. Nothing happens in South Dakota. People are probably really happy in South Dakota. I bet there's zero crime. I mean, well, there's crime everywhere, but I'm joking. But1:09:26 Yeah, I would go to a state, North Dakota, I don't hear much about. South Dakota, I don't hear much about. I would have to look at a map and go, yeah. I mean, poor Nebraska had accidentally alleged1:09:49 a million acres hadn't burned in Nebraska, that was a great place to go. Now it's probably going to develop into one of those smart cities. So probably not leaning that direction. But go to a place nobody's talking about. It's weird. It's like the whole United States on fire and you're trying to go some corner of the room that isn't on fire.1:10:19 Jack, are there any new fast food items coming up? There is Taco Bell just released. Is it a triple-double? A triple...1:10:34 double Crunchwrap. I guess it's been before and they brought it back. They just brought it back. I don't know what the frick that is. I'd like to go take a look and see. What else? For those of you who like One Piece, the TV show, the anime, and you're interested in getting the One Piece boxed,1:11:01 I don't highly recommend it. It's very expensive. I wouldn't pay for it again. I did it for the video. That was it. But yeah, there are some locations that still have boxes. Scalpers have been grabbing those. I don't get it. I was supposed to get a biscuit with my meal. That's what I was told. I get ripped off by that.1:11:31 Anyway, $15, not super expensive. Yeah, for fast food, combo meal. I mean, but you think about it. So I priced it out. Two pieces of chicken, like nine bucks. A two-piece meal. The lemonade, three bucks.1:12:01 So in the cupcake, probably three bucks. So it does add up to 15. Whether you made it yourself or got the one piece meal, it's probably going to cost you the same.1:12:16 I get a better value, though, with supermarket fried chicken. I really like, Kroger had a good fried chicken. Publix had great chicken. But Publix is a good store. You're not going to eat crap. Hold on a minute. But I would stay away1:12:43 Unless you're really trying to scrape pennies. Stay away from Walmart chicken. I just, I don't know why. I just would go to a regular supermarket, not Walmart. I go to Kroger's, Albertsons, whatever. All of them have their own fried chicken. It's hot, freshly made. They can drop fresh chicken for you.1:13:10 Call them. Tell them to drop a 20-piece. You got a party. You'll pick it up at this time. And you'll get it fresh. You'll get it way cheaper. KFC. There was a video I posted. KFC chicken was...1:13:27 under the microscope wasn't appealing but chick-fil-a did well under the microscope and popeyes did well under the microscope go look on my social media i posted that video uh has chicken crunch wraps a mini taco salad dirty sodas okay1:13:51 Be real careful with paying too much. Soda is the biggest markup on their menu. Why are they trying to do this dirty soda thing is that's where they're going to make the most money is beverages. Be careful. If that's your thing, go for it. Personally,1:14:16 If I, like McDonald's kills it in their coffee bar section with the mocha, they do coffee drinks. They do iced coffee. They do McCafe. They're killing it with their coffee drinks.1:14:38 And ironically, McDonald's had a good coffee that I remember. They've always had a good coffee. Probably the only thing I would go to McDonald's for.1:14:50 Was there coffee? So anyway, I would do coffee drinks for whoever, fast food. I don't care if it's Popeye's. I don't care if it's Chick-fil-A. I don't care if it's Burger King. I would get into the coffee drinks cold and hot.1:15:14 I would. I believe there's a great business for that. As long as you're lower than Starbucks, you're going to do just fine. So that's just my opinion. I always wanted to go in and help a restaurant be better, but I haven't had that opportunity yet. That may come. I don't know. Beef is about to get really expensive.1:15:43 Because of the war. Sorry, not war. Strategy. Okay. We're getting into F as in Frank topics. The best coffee you'll ever taste.1:15:58 Yeah, it's ironic, but they had a decent bean they used. It was Arabic. It tasted good. I didn't go to like a Starbucks and go, oh my goodness, this is so much better than McDonald's. I've never said that.1:16:23 You know, the beauty with Starbucks is they can do foo-foo drinks. They can dress it up, put flavors in it, put, you know, like Dutch Brothers. Do you want a soft top with that?1:16:40 Oh, I see. So what you're saying is, do you want my cream whipped on top five inches worth so that you don't have to put five inches of coffee? No, I'm good. Just mix the cream in normally after you fill the cup up.1:16:58 So anyway, that's enough of that. But McDonald's does a good job with their coffees. I haven't had their other coffee drinks, so I can't make any statements on whether they're good or not. But if they're using the same bean, they should be. I can make an interview with the doctor.1:17:27 If you do the restaurant doctor series. What's a restaurant doctor series? I don't know what that is. Let's see. Oh, okay. No, I appreciate it. But I missed that comment. I see it now.1:17:56 fixing up local businesses. That would be kind of cool to just wing it. But most of the time, they're not going to, most of the restaurants don't know who the frick I am. So when I walk in, they're like, yeah, right, we're going to listen to you. But like if Gordon Ramsay walked in, that's different. He can do Kitchen Nightmares. But anyway, what's wrong with Starbucks?1:18:23 Okay, they're way too expensive. Their beans taste burnt. If you've ever drank coffee, okay, do a taste test. Take a Dutch Brothers, take a Starbucks, and take a McDonald's. Have somebody pour out a sip of all three. And you try to identify which one's which and which one tastes the best.1:18:52 Wait, maybe I'll do that. That's a great video idea.1:18:56 All right, that's it. Never mind. No, do it. You do it. It's an inexpensive test. It's a playing with your food. More like playing with your coffee. Okay? So try that out. I'll try it too. I'll do a video about that. But yeah, so we'll get one coffee from Starbucks, one from Dutch Brothers, one from McDonald's.1:19:25 And I'll have Tammy pour out a little of each. And then I'll tell you if I can identify which one's which. And I'll drink it black. I'll taste them black. We're not going to fix them up. We're going to taste the true coffee. Alright? Listen, guys. We're way over. Saturday is taking off. Tammy's on the go already. Doing her thing. I got a lot of1:19:53 editing to do so let me let you go but um let's see let's see okay yeah and then i will see you next saturday for more family food and fun okay thank you once again to all the moderators1:20:13 Thank you to my troll for all the money you gave me. Appreciate it. I think I can go to the movies alone now. That's so cool. But anyway, thank you guys for spending your morning with me. You didn't have to.1:20:29 or if you're overseas, your day with me, whatever. But thank you, all right? Once again, the show's going to become more about you, more about you choosing, more about what you like, more about listening. Candy, I heard what you said. So all those things, more about you, all right? I love you guys. Take care. I'll talk to you later. Bye-bye.
