Speaker 2

I like the rocks. What are all the parrot heads gonna do? They're gonna have Margarita's Yeah, you just do it, man, you just do it. Yeah. Are you so you're more of a rocks than a frozen Yeah? I am too. I prefer rocks to frozen. Really, yeah, more that way, that's what that sounds made up. I don't know. I think it's more tequila when you pour more tequila in there. Yeah.

Speaker 3

That has been something that is said for many years, and I don't I've never seen the science on that. I just like the frozenream makes feel like it's like an icy or a slurpe. And I'm still a boy.

Speaker 1

Yeah you can get brain freeze, man.

Speaker 2

Yeah, well that's on you though.

Speaker 3

Why you're still you don't have to cram it like that, you don't have you know the dangers of brain freeze?

Speaker 1

Do you slow sit Margarita's of course, okay, do you not.

Speaker 2

I mean I drink at Rocks. I don't want I don't want brain freeze.

Speaker 4

Yeah, we like to chug our margaritas.

Speaker 2

Yeah, it is choke them. We drink with a purpose.

Speaker 3

Kevin, if you're going to for Worth this weekend, I'm just gonna give a beware. Oh because the street closures Tomorrow and Sunday is the forty seventh annual Cowtown Marathon. Oh, those cows running twenty six miles and you will have the cockiest people with their cars and their bumper stickers telling you how many miles they've done.

Speaker 2

Twenty six point twos, right, and you know what, good for them? Yeah?

Speaker 4

I love the zero point zero ones that you see.

Speaker 2

Oh that's my person. Let's see Jim Mary J. Blige is in town tonight. That's a weird one. Yeah, she's going to Maskove. No, okay, she said Dicky's arena. I have no idea, Christine.

Speaker 3

I thought you might like the uh tonight, the House of Blos, the Pink Floyd a laser spectacular.

Speaker 2

Are they called shin Yeah? I think so? Actually yeah.

Speaker 3

Yeah, if you're just trinking lasers, do you have to wear safety goggles for that?

Speaker 2

Oh?

Speaker 1

You just take old kinds of hallucinogenics and you're fine.

Speaker 2

Yeah, so, uh there's a kind of what's going on.

Speaker 3

And we this weekend that was thank you. I thought you would want to know other stories that we could do. Uh, We've got on the asteroid situation. We've talked about the asteroid how the percentage of it hitting us in twenty thirty two went from like one point two percent, and then Ben came in the other day and was like, it's at three point one percent, right, so we're going, okay, well we got an update on that. We're back down to one point five percent.

Speaker 2

What happened? I don't know, I mean twenty four hours. Yeah, this is such bs.

Speaker 3

See, this is what I was telling you. This might be some like NASA play to just get some headlines.

Speaker 2

Uh huh what I don't know. What has this?

Speaker 1

I don't know, is this cover fire from all the negative publicity they got from the whole Cynthia Usagara thing.

Speaker 4

Not not that, but maybe all the astronauts that got stuck up there for longer than their Maybe maybe. And they were like, guys, note you guys take it seriously, because look, we tell you when asteroids.

Speaker 2

Are right this is important.

Speaker 1

Are they worried that Elon's gonna cut their funding so they said, wait, there's an asteroid gumming?

Speaker 3

Yeah, Or in my theory was more the James Webb telloscope that they're talking about using.

Speaker 2

I'm gonna go back to that.

Speaker 3

But it's like, are we just gonna do this for the next seven years? Every day it's like, oh, the percentage went up and down, Like at some point we stopped talking about.

Speaker 1

The problem is ninety nine percent of the population has no idea what they're saying is accurate or not.

Speaker 2

We just all kind of shrug and go, yeah, I get sure. That sounds logical to me. Thank god, I'm just tired. Yeah, So what's on TV tonight? I just want to watch? Yeah, I just want to Nobody knows something. Nobody knows.

Speaker 3

There was a website and I don't know we could do this is a very food type thing. A website that ranked the top fifteen fast food French fock fries and you can't miss with food and drink.

Speaker 2

Do you want to say, guess the number one French fry?

Speaker 3

Yeah, I mean you're never gonna get number one, but really, yeah, because they get they work regional sometimes.

Speaker 2

Uh is it like shake shack or something.

Speaker 3

Oh no, they're not on the top fifteen. Man, it's a bad Oh.

Speaker 2

Oh, the RB's curly.

Speaker 3

Okay, number four, all right, damn good for you have a passer play, I'll pass.

Speaker 2

Okay.

Speaker 4

Well I saw this this morning.

Speaker 2

Oh then you should be good.

Speaker 4

That was a long time ago. So okay, But I will say Taco Bell's nacho fries are on there. What I told you, guys, they're freaking amazing.

Speaker 3

I am not eating French fries at Taco Bell number six, and they editorialized only a fool would overlook the nacho fries.

Speaker 2

Full in the rain over here? Okay, is a good led Zeppelin. I was gonna do what a full believe?

Speaker 3

Yeah?

Speaker 1

Oh nice Michael McDonald, Uh No, I'm not gonna eat French fries at Taco Bell.

Speaker 2

I'm not.

Speaker 4

I mean it made the list, you know.

Speaker 3

It's this is on Monday. I'll stop by and just blow through and get some nacho fries and bring in so you can have a taste.

Speaker 2

Here's the biggest issue.

Speaker 1

The biggest issue is that, for the most part, fries don't travel.

Speaker 2

Well. That's fair for the most.

Speaker 1

Part, Like if you don't eat the in and out French fries when they hand them to you out the window, if you hit the gas, they're already worthless in general, right well, just in.

Speaker 4

And out fries in general are worthless.

Speaker 2

Stone No.

Speaker 1

If you eat it in the line, if they throw them in your mouth out the window, they're delicious, but if you wait five seconds, they're not good anymore.

Speaker 2

Number two was McDonald's. They're a classic. It's classic fry.

Speaker 3

Yo.

Speaker 2

Number three. Do we say what number one was? No? Because they don't. I don't even think it's here, right, weird? What is it?

Speaker 1

Just tell me if I you know, I've never heard of it, say it. Say it with your mouth.

Speaker 2

I've also only lived here.

Speaker 1

Cheeddars there's cheddars out, Checkers, Checkers, Oh yeah, there's yeah, Checkers soccer place.

Speaker 2

Think there's one in Garland. Okay, okay. Number three Chick fil A. Chick fil A's got good waffle fries. Yoe. Number five Windy's.

Speaker 2

Have you ever? No, no, But you know if you go there and

Speaker 3

No?

Speaker 2

you go no, no, no.

Speaker 1

If you pull it and go and I'll have a lemonade. They hold on, what kind of lemonade would you like? Because we a bunch of them. They got like craft lemonade. It's unbelievable. And you pull up there's a guy squeezing lemons.

Speaker 4

Are you doing an endorsement for them?

Speaker 2

Maybe? Okay, Wendy's. If you're out there, I'm your lemonade guy. Uh, that's that's enough. Well what what? What else? Well?

Speaker 3

Ten was Waterburger, nine can have been higher, nine KFC, which is now Texas.

Speaker 2

They say potato wedges for KFS. Yes, okay, they're good good. Eight shake shack. See so you mentioned earlier? Yes, seven five guys, five guys.

Speaker 1

But it's not fast food. If you have that's casual. If you have to go inside, it ain't fast food. I agree, there's got to be a drive up. Chipotle is not fast food. No, it's counter servers. I think Chipotle is about to start rolling out windows though.
