We are in the air everywhere the power of podcasting. We thank you for supporting this our Saturday podcast. We want to thank Tony Bruno who came on yesterday. Tony was spitting fire. That was vintage Tony Bruno. That is why this guy's a legend and a Hall of famer in sports talk radio. Was so happy to have him on. But we are here eight days a week because four

hours and not enough. And this is another interviews slash hanging with someone we like, Friends of the show podcast Here the Fifth Hour with Ben Mallory and joined yet again by David Gascon who's right over there hanging out with us. Hello David, Good good morning or good evening to you, Ben, or good night, yeah, good good night, wherever you may be. I know you're a good afternoon, good evening, and good night. That's the line. I know you're not on the beach because it is the fishy

football season, that's right, man, I gotta I'm sorry. I'm done until check back in February. I'll be back around February. Have you got to Costco to load up on your on your on your dough so you can get the pepperoni, the pizza, the well. I like making the homemade pie. I make that as I've sent I've sent photos. You've been impressed with how good that pizza looks the whole. But don't you don't you buy the package doll though

from No you don't, No, No, I don't. I well, I have bought it at a different so I don't buy it from Costco, though I buy I bought it like Trader Joe's has it. Sometimes I'll make it, which is really not that hard to make. It's just gotta sit for you know, a few hours or whatever. But yeah, I love the pizza and all that. I love the food. It's all about football and food and all that wonderful stuff. So, uh, coming up and now we're gonna do pop quiz here.

All right, we're gonna do a few pop quiz but coming up a little bit later, we are going to do something that's outside of our comfort zone here, yescan. Now, normally we have old radio guys that we love or you know, people that we work with at Fox On.

But we're gonna try something different. So I saw a video and I think most people have seen this now I went viral on the internet from Lincoln, Nebraska, and I was watching this and I watched it several times and I laughed and I said, no, what, I think we should try to get this guy on the podcast. I want to know what his story is. I want to know what what's going on. And I am referring to Ander Christiansen, better known as the Saucy Dugs Man. And for those that have not heard, we have the

audio tape here. So this has gone viral. But if somehow you missed it, the audio is just good enough. You don't need the video. The video makes it even better. But this comes from Lincoln, Nebraska, right, beautiful Lincoln, Nebraska, the capital of Lincoln of the Ambraska rather and the the home of the Nebraska Cornhuskers and all that. So our guy Andrew Christiansen, he he got in front of the leaders of that city and he went on a rant. And if you missed it, even if you heard it,

it is amazing. Let's go to the audio tape, as Warner Wolfe would say, here's how that went down. Lincoln has the opportunity to be a social leader in this country. We have been casually ignoring a problem that has gotten so out of control that our children are throwing around names and words without even understanding their true meaning and treating things as though they're normal. I go into nice family restaurants and I see people throwing this name around

and pretending as though everything is just fine. I'm talking about boneless chicken wings. I propose that we as a city removed and excuse me, I'm trying to excuse me. Come. I propose that we as a city remove the name boneless wings from our menus and from our hearts. These are our reasons why. Number one, nothing about boneless chicken wings actually come from the wing of a chicken. We would be disgusted if a butcher was mislabeling their cuts of meats. But then we go around and pretending as

though the breast of the chicken is its wing. Number two, boneless chicken wings are just chicken tenders which are already boneless. I don't go to it and ordered boneless tacos. I don't go and order boneless club sandwiches. I don't ask for boneless auto repair. It's just what's expected. And then number three, we need to raise our children better. Our children are raised being afraid of having bones attached to their meat. That's where meat comes from. It grows on bones.

We need to teach them that the wing of a chicken is from a chicken and it's delicious. There's the best thing is is because there's a mask that most of the people in attendants have to wear. There's a woman three rows back at him that is just busting up and hiding it pretty well because of the mask. So yeah, the whole thing, the full, the full rant

is outstanding. So we're gonna have this guy on. I've been emailing him and communicating with him, and we've traded emails up trying to get him on, and um, he's got a regular job. I just think it's cool because he's just like a regular dude. I believe he's got a regular job in Nebraska. And now for you know everyone the old mine, everyone gets their fifteen minutes of fame, right, And that was that Andy Warhol quote, I think it was. And so this is his fifteen minutes of fame. But

it's a great it's it's great. I mean, it shows you the power of the internet. This thing has been seeing millions of times. It's gone around the world, and uh, it made people laugh in a time where you know, there's not a lot to laugh at right now in the world. You know, it's amazing too, is because you can get the laugh out of this. Part of it is because of the way that his presentation, like he's wearing a dress shirt tucked in with dress slacks or khakis,

and he has a tie on and glasses. But he has long hair. It's like it's like long rocker hair. But imagine if he cut his hair and its parted, and he gave that kind of a presentation because most people would be fixated on who he is or what he looks like, right, as opposed to that in a wild Yeah, yeah, it was very good. It was well done, and that's hard. No, I am assuming that there's some comedy in this that he but maybe he really believes that maybe this is really his position. Will find out.

But being the straight man and not breaking character, that's hard to do, right, I mean that's difficult. And people are laughing hysterically behind him, and he did not break character at all. Now, several people I did not watch Parks and Rex. I don't know if did you watch the show part they've said this is like an episode of Parks and Rex, that this is like right out

of that show. Um, So I'm gonna ask him whether or he was a fan of that show, if that was his inspiration, or if this just kind of happened. It'll be interesting, but yeah, that he'll be joining us in a few minutes. I wanted to get to pop Quiz first, but these the saucy nugs Man. If you don't care about pop Quiz, just fast forward, right, you can fast forward GUESTCN and then get right to Andrew Christiansen, the bondless wings guy, the saucy nugs man. Uh, and

we'll we'll ask him. I just want to know what, what how this has changed his life, like, I'm fascinated. I want to know that you're How can you monetize this? Those are all questions I have. So we'll talk to Andrew about this coming up in a in a little bit, But first we have pop quiz. Yes, yes, yes, all right, here we go pop quiz. These are actual quiz questions that I've found from around the internet to ask David

Gascon and then you as well. So, if this is going to happen to you at work, it is most likely to happen on a Wednesday. What do you think it is? Get fired? No, that's always Friday, so always from no, Yeah, yeah, I think so I got fired on Friday. The answer is an accident. If you're you're gonna have an accident at work, it's gonna happen on a Wednesday. I got I got my car accident on Thursday. Well that's because you didn't work on Wednesday, right, I

don't know, maybe yeah that car accident. Had that car accident work out for you? I don't know. There's some of those texting me while trying to yeah, oh driving. I don't know who that would be, but you should turn your really if you're driving and have your text messaging on that's on the driver. Turn that off, you know, I mean there's a feature on the phone there send a message. I'm sorry, I'm driving right now. Just disabled

the text message. Interesting, it's an option. Interesting all right. A new survey of adults found this is the number one thing, number thing they get nostalgic about when looking back on their school days. What is it? I was gonna say, lunch pails. You're right, metal lunchbox. So when when you had your lunch pail, was it like he Man or G I Joe or what you have? I had G I Joe. I had The one I liked

the most was the superheroes. They had all the superheroes on there, you know, Superman, Batman, uh, Fighter Man, whatever they were. I forget Captain America. It was awesome. I loved that one. But I had the G I Joe one. I had several because I would throw those things. Man I was. I was a rambunctious kid, and I would throw it against the wall when I'd get to the class and then I've done with lunch and I'd throw it. My mom always would give me, like the tuna fish sandwich,

little bag of chips and stuff I hated. That's why I don't need fish anymore. My mom would give me so much tuna. And the problem with the tuna fish he put an ice pack in the lunch box, but it didn't stay cold by the time lunch came around. You go to school at seven thirty in the morning, and by like noon or twelve thirty, it's not it's no longer old. You're eating a warm tuna fish sandwich.

It's disgusting. Yeah, that's that's that's brutal. I yeah, not right, But that's why I like the peanut butter and jelly more when she would make that, because that would last. Yeah, it's always safer. Or did she ever cut half the banana? No, she didn't use your was your mom in half the banana? She did that sometimes, and that was the worst part because obviously that just goes bad real quick. Yeah, yeah, right away instantaneously came over. Yeah alright, Uh, what was

your favorite lunch pail? Guess I had. I had He Man and Transformers. Transformers was my favorite. So yeah, yeah, I was more of these superheroes, but I was just like my, my, my, My lunch pails were all banged up like, oh yeah, sometimes I used them like discuses. I would throw them. It was fun, all right. A new survey says less than what intent Americans do this on a regular basis, even though our parents and grandparents did so far more often, or did this so far

more often. What is yard work? Uh? No? Take a bath? Oh yeah? Now, when I we were a house shopping, when I got hitched up here we're looking at the house, I said, the one thing I want is a big bathtub. I want to at the end of the day, I would like to go into a nice big bathtub and just lay down and just have a bubble bath and just think, a boy, that would be great. We don't have a bathtub big enough to support the Mallard brand here, So did not happen. Do you have Are you a

bath guy? No? But um, I have a buddy of mine. His dad was similar to you in terms of like being a big guy. Yeah, And so he had a big shower and bathtub. But he also had that those like handicap benches that would fold out because he was so big. Yeah. So the great thing is is he lost all that weight but he still uses it. And and my buddy uses it too, and he's just like, man, this thing is like like coming on, damn jacuzy because it's got like the jets on both sides. That's nice.

It's got the duel heads, so you get the water coming out of the faucet and then you get the the top head from the shower that gets the water out too, so you get the best of both worlds. You get. It must be west of the four or five. Yeah, exactly, yeah, I would. I would love that, like a nice baby. I have a pretty good shower. It could be a little better. Um. The one thing I did do, well, maybe I did, maybe I didn't, because it's the illegal

guest guns I took. I had somebody possibly take the filter off the shower head so you get the full amount of water. You know, you buy these, You buy these shower heads and they put the restrictor in there, right, which is bullshit? Look up to California. Yeah, it's California bullshit. And so I I maybe maybe I did, Maybe I didn't. Uh, Jerry rigged or found someone to do it, so I get the full amount of water. And man, is that

a difference. I wonder, how man do I enjoy the shower more with that, I wonder how many laws you break inside your house? Yeah, well, much like Blair and Maine. I'm a rebel. I am a rebel. Party cable, I don't know, pirate cable, cutting the tags off your your mattresses, and I do that. I do that. Yeah, I'm I'm a badass. Yeah, hidden badass. All right. The average worker says this phrase approximately three times per week. What is it, I'm getting too old for the ship? No, it's I

need a vacation. My mom used to say that I need a vacation. I do need a vacation. I haven't had a vacation a long time. Man. You gotta have these many vacations, guest, and you got me and the wife. We run out go to in Sequoya National Forest last weekend, just before the fires. Just green. It was all green. Man. Oh it was beautiful. That's that's one of my favorite places. You've been there, right, Yeah, but I haven't been there since I was a kid. You guys got to go

as as adults. Yeah, we went twice. We went on a Thursday and loved it so much. And when you when you go to Seqoia, they give you, it's like thirty five bucks to get in, but you get the past for seven days solid and said when you went, there was nobody there, right, Well, the first day we went, yeah, the day before the holiday weekend, there was nobody there and it was awesome. We had the run of the place. But then we went back on Saturday and it was a nightmare. We were lucky to we had to go

to the overflow parking lot. We were lucky to get parking, and it was like it was a big debacle. But we still had a great time once we finally found parking. Just walking around, I I could walk in the Giant forest every day of my life and I'd say, man, it's the greatest thing. It's those trees, the size of those trees, and just the smells and the sounds of the birds and all that. It's just I'm becoming a environmentalist guest gun. That's good crossing over to the dark side.

This is just an appetizer. So like when you me and and I'm a pilot up on a bird and get over to Europe, you can experience nature in a different kind of flavor with the EU. Yeah, what's that gonna happen? I don't know. We need a COVID vaccine, don't we? Is that what we need? I don't know we need? Like well, because we're not even allowed in Europe? Are we Americans? Like we're not even allowed to be I don't know. I don't know. I don't think I'm

allowed in California and I live in California. I don't know what to do. Uh alright, six of us admit we have stopped a dinner conversation in order to do this. What is it? Take a piss? Well, take something, but not a piss. Take a picture of your food? Do you do that? Only if I make it? But if I'm at a restaurant, I don't do that. But like if I make a nice meal, like I made those Popeyes chicken sandwiches a couple of weeks ago, rip off, I took a picture. I was proud of it. Yeah,

but I don't. And plus it's for the internet. They management wants me to post more of that stuff on this so I do. I'm fine. Whatever people want to look behind the curtain how I live my life. If you're interested in that, fine, you can rip what I wear, or what I say or whatever I look like in the picture and say, how goofy my smile looks, or what dumb hat I'm wearing it. It's all part of the deal. So that's it. But if I'm like the cheesecake factory and I get a plate of food, I'm

not taking a picture of it. Yeah, unless it's like some kind of exotic food or something. You know, you do this all the time. You send me food shots all the time. Look at me. I'm big man on campus. I'm eating vegetables. It's like you're trying to impress me with your vegetable eating. Well, I'm I'm a fantastic cook. There you go, here you go, and then that of the narcissist, and I have a well balanced meal. I like to have fruits and vegetables and meats and spices

and uh do everything, man, you do everything. Look at you, you do everything. Look at you. Your machine unbelievable, all right. Uh. The average American woman will own a little over one hundred of these in her lifetime, is yeah, that's right. What do you think the over under on shoes is though, like pairs of shoes? Wow, I don't know, But I

have some guy friends that collect nikes, and stuff. So I think it's starting to cross over that there's dudes that collect shoes like wait, but it's got to be in the around a thousand. Maybe what you say is that too many. I don't know, five hundred. I guess maybe a thousands too much. Depends how much money those

shoes are expensive. Yeah, five hundreds probably really good number, especially the casually of the business, and you have like the nightlife shoes like party in the front, business in the back. All right, this is the first thing most people think about every single day. What is it? Food? No sleep? Oh, you're like, funk, I want to go back to sleep here thinking about sleep? No, No, I don't usually either because I don't get a lot of it. Actually, know I do. Every time you text it, like eleven

am or twelve, I'm like, go to fucking away. The show just ended five hours ago. What the fund are you doing? It's brutal, man. I tell you, I gotta drug myself with the costco sleepaid or else I don't get sleep, and I get like three hours of sleep and then I'm up once I wake up. If I don't take the sleep aid, I can't I can't go back to sleep. I'm up. I'm good for about three and a half four hours and then that's it. All right. Women spend eleven minutes a day doing this? What is it?

Plucking their eyebrows? No, blow drying their hair? Just eleven minutes? Wow, just eleven minutes. Well it seems kind of short. Consider the fact that most women have long hair. Well, how long do you think you should take for a woman to blow dry her hair? Well, they got a style it too, so well that's not included. I'm just talking about the blow drying part. Yeah, but most women I assume like blow dry and you know, brush their hair at the same time. I don't know. I'm not a

woman you live with one. I do, but I don't pay attition what she did. Come on, I did my own thing. Man, are you talking about out one hair to come? She's got a many? All right, let's see here, any meny money? Mo? One in three women wish their partners would do this more. This is important for the guys because this is what women wish their partners would do more. Uh, first, guests would be cooking, but I'll say give them massages. No hold hands, okay, hold hands,

you're a handholder. Guy, guess gan, Yeah, but no, that's not a. Yes, that's a I mean if I have to, if you have and the p d A is fine. But I don't know, like sometimes I walk slower than the woman, or I walk faster, so I don't want to feel like telling her and I don't know. Well, normally what happens is the longer you're with someone, the less handholding you do. Right, isn't that generally how it goes? Yeah, yeah,

that's usually how it goes, all right. The average mother spends fifty five minutes a week doing this what is it? Packing lunches, ironing. Okay, that's for the for the husband and herself potentially not a big ironing guy. Yeah, I know you're not. You're in the shower in the bathroom and just steamed this place up when I showed up to do that high school football game, which was eighty thousand to nothing. Let me point out, thank you for that a lot of garbage time. And you were ripping

me from my my wardrobe. No, you're no, hold on, I was not ripping you for your wardrobe. And I said your shirt was protective because you're wearing a blazer and you wore a hat. You wore a Bruce Arians type of fedora, so it worked and it matched. You had a fedor that matched your blazers. So I was not ripping your attire, man, I like the hat, Why not? I was ripping the fact that your wife was putting on makeup in a parking lot for you. Though you

look good, feel good, dressed for success. Four percent of people say you can definitely be too old to do this. What is it? Guess you're probably too old right now to do this? And go to clubs close, go to a concert? Oh no way? Yeah, the fucking musicians are like sixteen seventy years old like performing at these. Why can't people go in there in their fifties or sixties or seven. I didn't make it up, man, don't blame me. Don't shoot the messenger. What's wrong with you? A right?

The first location of this iconic casual restaurant opened for the first time on Labor Day. We just had Labor Day recently. Um, now this is a restaurant. The first time I saw one of these, I took a picture in front of it. Oh yeah, man, it is synonymous with the South Oh is it waffle house? Yeah, waffle house, man. You know, I haven't had waffle house a long time. Well, they're not here. I maybe there are some in California, but I was I associate them with like Florida, yes,

you know. And I remember was in Florida with the Dodgers for spring training and I've never been to Florida before and I had never been to a waffle house. And I remember that was in the days before selfies, so I had the I had pictures taken of me in front of a waffle house in uh, like Jupiter, Florida or whatever. What was your go to there? Were you like a chicken cutlet type of guy, or you like strictly? I only ate there one time, and uh, I had the just the traditional waffles. I didn't have

the anything else, just at the waffles. I should have expanded my palette. That job by me, all right, what would you liked? What did you like in the waffle I did chicken cutlet, eggs and then stack of waffles. So yeah, I was fat there. Yeah it was. It was pretty good. And that's that's drunk food. That's I guess that's everyday food. I don't know, all right, the first time this snack item was introduced, it flopped. It

didn't become popular until thirty years later. Oreo cookies, no pringles, Oh my gosh, I love Yeah, think about that that item. Thirty years later. It became popular when first debut, and people like, I don't need this. It's kind of like sliced bread. When slice bread debuted, people didn't like it. They liked cutting their own bread. They thought the pieces were too small, and it didn't really take off because the people are like used to it. I would imagine

the automobile was probably the same way. People like I got my horse. I don't need a car. I'll walk or I'll ride the bike. Yeah, alright, last one here and then we will welcome in. I'm excited about this. We are moments away from the Saucy nugs Man coming on here the podcast, which is very exciting. But the last one. Compared to women, men are much less likely to do this when they are shopping. Here we go

pop quiz. Last one for the week. Um uh, compare compare Compare prices, so price shop just whatever the prices you go with. No ask a sales clerk clerk for help? Oh, like, where an item is if you're at the grocery store and you've not been there before, Like where an item? Man, I do that all the time. I just do it so I get in and get out. I don't. I My move is I will try to find set item. I will spend ten minutes trying to find it, and then I will then ask for help rather than just

ask for help. Is that better or worse? Because on one side, do it because I want to be time efficient. But it's like using the calculatar for math, Like would you rather use the calculator for math or would you rather computer? In your head? Oh, I'd rather use the calculatory. Human beings right, the quickest way to a salute san is the way to go. But yet, for some reasons my neurosis, I'm like, I gotta find I can figure out where this is. I don't need someone to tell

me where to go. I can find this. I really am impressed. When I go to Home Depot or Lows and or any groceries or Costco. When you work there, you've got to know where every item is. You know, Yeah,

it's an aisle thirty five in the back. Like that's not easy, especially for Home Depot because you have those washers, you have the bolts, the nuts, the lights, like there's a lot of intricate things that you have there that is not really common for people like you need to know the shapes, the size of the hole and smash. All right, well, let's walk him and we we played the audio earlier in the podcast and he is on

the line right now. The breakout celebrity in America over the last couple of weeks here Andre Christiansen, better known as the Saucy nugs Man. Andrew, welcome to the show. It's good to have you on here. How has your life changed in the last a couple of weeks or so? Well? Such a my in laws are no longer asking to cut my hair, so that's good. So so how did this this come about? I have you spoken at city council meetings before this happened? Or was this your first time? Not?

Not even once? Um, so I have since I was in my in my college days, I'd be going to wing joints with my buddies all the time. Especially started when all four of us got broken up with within a two week period. And so this you know, sad, shambling group of guys just wandered from wing joint to wing joint for about a month, and it just started this huge love that now that's all like, we'll go out together get wings all the time. You gotta make fun of the guy who gets boneless ones, right, you

gotta make fun of him. Saucy dougs just aren't aren't wing. And then I found out that you can say what ever you want at the city council meeting for five minutes, and so I, you know, and I got I got some uh, I got some some thoughts hour and I got some thoughts going. And honestly, this happened towards the beginning of the pandemic, and I didn't feel comfortable going

and saying anything while people were airing genuine grievances. So I waited until there was a day with one of the most benign schedules on the city council and wrote down my thoughts in about five minutes, drove over, practicing on the way with my wife, and then did it. Wow, So you this wasn't like something you spent two weeks writing or what you really nailed it, but that that's impressive and are you the delivery was great? How difficult was it because the guy in the background was laughing

his ass off? How difficult was it not to not to break character? You know? Uh? The thing too that kept me on the right track with In the car ride over there, my wife brought up the factor. She said, are you gonna what what are you gonna do if people start laughing? And I was like, oh, good point, I'm gonna get upset about it. And so I had thought of it ahead of time, so I was able to not, you know, break character on it. Yeah. And so some people have said, they said, this is like

an episode of Parks and Rex. Were you a parking right Were you a fan of that show? Did you watch that show back in the day. You know, I watched a couple of episodes of it. I never never really caught on for me, but uh, I think I've heard it enough times and now I have to go back. Yeah, you're you gonna go back one. And then at the end, when you got done, the guy in the city council said, that's my son. By the way, that's not he wasn't really your father, right, that was just a guy making

a joke. Yes, no, no, that was my dad. That is really that is really that, that's really your dad. I thought he was making a joke. No, no, no, so that's my dad. He had no idea I was going to be there that day. He had no idea what I was going to talk about. Uh. The only thing that uh he The only reason I even said anything was because everybody in the room I thought I was serious. They were just all confused. They were like, I don't know if this guy is serious. I don't

know if this guy is making a joke. And all the city council members were wearing their best like I care about what you have to say face because they were worried about offending me, except for my dad, and he was just cracking up laughing, and everybody thought he was such a jerk. He felt they need to be like guys, No, I was laughing because it's my son. And or do you have an idea of what other what city is next on your target? Like do you have an idea of like where you might go next

with this? So, um, I'm getting a website ready, asn't launched yet. Um, but when I launched it, I'm actually going to be having a kickstarter, going to fund me, going to Washington. Yeah. Yeah, I'm going on a campaign trail. I'm gonna stop at wing joints between here and Lincoln, Nebraska and Washington, d C. And people will be able to submit ideas of the best places to go, and we'll talk to the owners, talk to locals and have a good time on the way then and hopefully get

get Saucy Nugs to be a thing. Hey, hold, you know, and er, is there a chance. I don't know the deadline, you might probably miss the deadline, but to get your name on the ballot as like a at least a write in candidate, the Saucy nugs Man Forget Trump, Forget Biden, vote Saucy nugs Man for President. You gotta you gotta get a website. Go. Yeah, I'm glad you're doing it. You gotta get Saucy nugs Man for President t shirts and all that. Those things will sell out. Man, you'll

make a killing. Actually, right now, if you go to Saucy nugs dot com, you'll get linked to my Twitter account and I've got some Saucy Nugs for President shirts and my personal favorite a shirt I made called not right wing, not left wing Chicken wing. Oh are you Are you a comedian and you should do a comedy man, This is great stuff. You gotta get out and hit the hit the comedy circle when those things open up.

This is OUs dandy. No, I'm act interestingly enough, I'm a chemical engineer and I work in a research lab with introverts, so completely out of out of the wheelhouse now and your personal question for it. And I have to do this because Ben will not, but I will with your with your nugs, do you do you dip them? And Ranch? No? Yes, No, that's it. That's harrisy. I mean it's like Harrison Ford wearing a baseball cap. Like it's still Harrison Ford, but it's not cool anymore. Take that,

guess you see this is the saucy nuts. Man. These guys, the big, the big break guts are now now. And how fast did you really eyes or how soon did you realize what you had done had become viral? Because I guess it was on local TV and Lincoln right, and then it got picked up by some some people on social media. But at what moment did you realize, Hey, my life's gonna be a little different over the next you know, however long because of this, how soon did

you realize, man, this is big? So that night, So Monday night, I got home, I asked my wife. I'm like, hey, can you, you know, find the clip and cut, cut it and make a YouTube video for it because I wanted to send it to my family. I want to send to my friends. There's a podcast that I listened to that they joke about stuff like this all the time, so I wanted to send it to them too, because they're part of the reason why I even went in and did it to begin with. And and I was like,

send it to them, We'll be good. And then Tuesday my co workers told me I was cringe e and awkward. And then Wednesday morning, I saw somebody else who uploaded this video on a Twitter and had six hundred thousand views, And in ten minutes I watched you go to nine hundred thousand, and I started pit sweating. It was it was disgusting. My shirt became swamp lands. And I had to go to my boss and be like, hey, I am gonna have to go home. This is something bigger

than I thought it would ever be. And he didn't understand. He was like, this is ridiculous, Like he's a hard man of science, and he's like, this makes no sense to me why you would want to have to go home for this whatever, But fine, just get out of here. You know, I had big experiments planned for the day. I had to postpone them. That night. He called me up and apologized because he saw me in the New York Time. No, this is I'm sure you've seen it

better than me. And it but everywhere I looked you are. You are on every major newspaper, website, every comedy website. Politicians were talking about you, both Republican and Democrat. I mean, it's just been out of I saw you did something for the Nebraska football team on Twitter. That's actually how I found your Twitter account because you had done a video for them, and you live in Lincoln obviously assume you're a Cornhuskers guy and all that. So how did

that go down there? Did you? Did they? How soon did they reach out to you? And you did a good job on that one as well. Well. They reached out to me on Friday, and they reached out to me in the morning and they're like, hey, can you do this? And at that point I was like, I don't know if I'm really interested. I wasn't super interested in the idea of doing something that I didn't find humorous,

and there I told him. I was like, I'll come in and talk to you guys, but if I at the end, I don't think this is funny, I don't want to do it because I wanted to be some some cheap thing that's just for you know whatever. And that we got in there, I was like, is there any way I can interrupt Scott Frost? And they said absolutely, And I was like, if I'm we're doing this like that is and give your Twitter account out? Uh, you know, Andrew, you're the Saucy Nugs man, but how can people follow you?

And I had to kind of look around to track you down? So how can people follow you if they want to learn more about your website and what you've got coming up and all the projects that will spin out of this, how can they find you? Like I said, right now, it actually just changed my Twitter handle because it made no sense. And uh so, uh, if you go to Saucy Nugs dot com, you'll go straight to

my Twitter. Uh and the next, you know, two days or so, you'll see that it will actually go to a website and uh, well, we'll keep people posted there. So nice I I dot com, Saucy Nugs dot com. So you gotta. I'm thinking how Buffalo wild Wing should reach out to you. Some other people need to. I mean, you should be like the face. You'd be doing commercials and er uh. I'm sure you've gotten people contact. I'll

be your agent or whatever. But I think you can monetize this thing and become like a spokesman for one of these big chicken wing companies. You know, I would love to do a brand ambassadorship. That would be just so much fun. Yeah. I Hey, if I ran one of those places, I would I would absolutely do it. So so this is great. Man, So your life has changed and and you're still working though, right, you're still

working stiff. In fact, I was emailing you trying to get you on the podcast here, and you were like, I gotta work. I gotta, you know, I get only can do it at certain times. And I respect that. Man. You have not you know, you've not quit yet. Now would you quit your job? And or if you blow up here and you become a you know, a big star and you can make money, would you leave your career to pursue that, you know, I thought, I've been thinking about this a lot. I talked to my wife

about it. We think that would be really fun like that. The opportunities are right, you know, take the take for more more interesting creative route. I mean, I can always go back and become a sales engineer, you know, yeah, yeah, absolutely listen. I love your story man, Good luck. I'd love to have you on a day again down the line.
