- 0:08Speaker 2: Thinks?
- 0:09Speaker 1: So I'm just wearing a Columbia little zip puddy here
- 0:12Speaker 1: and that looks mighty cash too casual, I think. So

- 0:17Speaker 2: A little bit? Ruth's Chris Steakhouse, which you and I
- 0:20Speaker 2: have enjoyed on many an occasion.
- 0:23Speaker 1: Good Old Wee Hawk in New Jersey.
- 0:24Speaker 2: Yes, Actually, when I think about it, I do kind
- 0:26Speaker 2: of get dressed up to go there, because Eric and
- 0:28Speaker 2: I have only pretty much gone on special occasions. So
- 0:31Speaker 2: they've installed a new dress code designed to cut down
- 0:34Speaker 2: on some of the most casual clothing choices. They don't
- 0:37Speaker 2: want you to wear a baseball hat or a cap.
- 0:41Speaker 2: They don't want you to wear gym wear, pool attire,
- 0:43Speaker 2: tank tops, clothing with offensive graphics and exposed undergarments.
- 0:47Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I don't do that, but they're kind of.
- 0:51Speaker 2: Like not asking for anything too crazy.
- 0:53Speaker 1: Here.
- 0:53Speaker 2: The bar and patio areas are more relaxed, and you
- 0:55Speaker 2: can wear that kind of stuff there. But if you're
- 0:57Speaker 2: gonna sit in the dining room, they ask you to
- 0:59Speaker 2: dress for dinner.
- 1:00Speaker 1: If I if I did have a tank top on,
- 1:02Speaker 1: how do you know I don't have all my money
- 1:04Speaker 1: right under top?
- 1:05Speaker 2: Money's right, Money's money. So Chili's responded on X and
- 1:11Speaker 2: they said the only dress code in Chili's is that
- 1:13Speaker 2: you have to be dressed.
- 1:16Speaker 1: And people like that.
- 1:18Speaker 2: Yeah, people like that. They were responding, mister Chili's, can
- 1:21Speaker 2: I please wear my top hat and opera cloak to
- 1:23Speaker 2: your fine establishment? Chili said, with the pinky finger out
- 1:26Speaker 2: as you sip our Margarita of the month. Cheesecake Factory
- 1:30Speaker 2: shot off a reply as well, We're an upscale, casual
- 1:33Speaker 2: dining restaurant. Be comfortable, feel free to come as you are,
- 1:36Speaker 2: just come hungry.
- 1:37Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:38Speaker 2: So it's kind of started a thing. They're having some
- 1:40Speaker 2: fun social media wise, and there are people who are
- 1:43Speaker 2: siding with Ruth's Chris in that you're spending a lot
- 1:47Speaker 2: of money to go sit down there. It's a dining experience,
- 1:50Speaker 2: Please dress.
- 1:51Speaker 1: For it and all kidding aside, I don't think they
- 1:53Speaker 1: would probably, you know, say I can't come in dress
- 1:55Speaker 1: like this, right, but obviously if you have flip flops
- 1:59Speaker 1: on and tank t or and you're just too sloppy.
- 2:02Speaker 2: They don't want you to look like he came from
- 2:03Speaker 2: the gym or something. Yeah, or the pool that which
- 2:06Speaker 2: doesn't happen around here because it's too cold. But you
- 2:08Speaker 2: know what about.
- 2:10Speaker 1: Oh yeah that changes everywhere.
- 2:12Speaker 2: Well then you got yeah, you got already dressed down,
- 2:15Speaker 2: Now you got to get changed right. Yeah, I'm thinking,
- 2:17Speaker 2: you know, this happened to Eric and I were in
- 2:20Speaker 2: New Orleans and we went to one of the fancy steakhouses,
- 2:24Speaker 2: like really famous ones there, and he didn't have a
- 2:26Speaker 2: jacket on, and they lent him a jacket. Is it
- 2:31Speaker 2: loaned or lent yea. And they still do that, at
- 2:34Speaker 2: least they do it in New Orleans. And it really
- 2:36Speaker 2: was like like a movie scene, like it was ill
- 2:38Speaker 2: fitting and it yeah, it just looked really awkward. And
- 2:43Speaker 2: I swear they put us in a corner like you
- 2:46Speaker 2: know where all the forks and knives and spoons are,
- 2:48Speaker 2: like one of those stations.
- 2:49Speaker 1: Nobody puts Eric in a corner.
- 2:51Speaker 2: They put baby in a corner, I think because he
- 2:54Speaker 2: had the jacket of shame. So it's not like Ruth's
- 2:57Speaker 2: Chris is doing that too. But they're just asking you
- 2:59Speaker 2: to dress, just dress a bit for dinner.
- 3:01Speaker 1: Yeah. Give us a text and your thoughts on this
