0:26
It is time to leave your worries outside and to join us inside the Treehouse.
0:34
I'm Daniel Malley along with Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharman. Welcome to the
0:41
beginning of another week of twenty twenty four. Lots to get into today.
0:50
We've got date night coming up. We've also got our first chance to comment
1:00
on the Mike McCarthy non firing. We're also gonna I'm also gonna dig deep
1:08
into some naked bowling and that right, there's a packed show. Before we
1:14
get started, I want to mention the segment of the Treehouse brought to you
1:19
by the Dallas Comedy Club. For all event and take an info, go

1:38

1:42
to Dallas Dashcomedy Club dot com. Not only is it where funny You're a
1:47
new home for funny in Dallas Fort Worth, but it's also the safe corner
1:52
of dep ellum, that's another slogan they can start using. Yeah, it's
1:57
addition to the shows. It's a great patio, great bar, a good
2:00
stuff. So go hang out at the Dallas Comedy Club and tell him you
2:04
heard about them right here inside the treehouse. Now we need to dig deep
2:09
into what I thought was a trap by Traying, and I still think it
2:15
is Trey. You sent Trey. You sent me a text I don't know,
2:20
like a week or so ago, and I purposely avoided it like the
2:25
plague, because I felt like it was a trap. I felt like Admiral
2:30
Backbar and you know in Star Wars was like, it's a trap because the
2:34
text pops up, it's a video link from Trey that says naked bowling.
2:42
Oh yeah, I got the same time, Yeah yeah yeah, and then
2:45
to uh add the cherry on top. It was a feature that was done
2:51
appropriately by hard copy. So that really is kind of like the planets aligning
3:00
naked Bowling being covered by hard copy, which, sadly, I guess we
3:06
need to explain for our younger viewers. Hard Copy was a magazine show kind
3:12
of like Inside Edition that was on nineties, two thousands. Yeah, yeah,
3:17
and hard copy I don't. It might have, it might have dipped
3:21
into the eighties. But so before Inside Edition, there was hard copy.
3:27
Before hard copy, there was a Current Affair, Yes, hosted if I
3:31
remember correctly, by one Mary Povich. That's right before he started telling everyone
3:38
whether or not they're the father. He had a semi respectable journalism career,
3:44
and Inside Edition was also hosted by one Bill O'Reilly do it live? That's
3:51
right? I know that well, which is interesting, like if Inside Edition
3:55
and hard Copy ever actually merged, they would have been hard Inside. I
4:02
think that right there would get people to watch, wouldn't, kind of like
4:06
Naked Bowling did. So I finally bit the bullet. I clicked on Tray's
4:14
text link, and like many things that happen inside the Treehouse, I'm both
4:19
happy and sad that I did. Okay, I saw it and I went,
4:23
oh, white people. Yeah. I'd love to refute that, Raj,
4:30
but I simply can't, because it's absolutely correct. There is not one
4:35
person of color in this entire story done by hard copy right now. And
4:41
this was even before they started really getting into having other nationalities and ethnicities anchoring,
4:49
because hard copy is as you'll see here, it's hosted by Classic White
4:56
anchor Barry Nolan. And is it Deborah Norvil that's next to U? Right?
5:01
Yeah, that is? Can I ask a question? And this will
5:04
just show my American ignorance, Roger is bowling a predominantly American thing? Yes?
5:16
I remember, in almost fifty years on this earth, I had never
5:19
really pondered whether bowling was a global sport or just kind of an American thing.
5:25
I'm just kind of an American thing. You never hear like you never
5:27
hear about the Chinese team coming over the bowl, like you know, like
5:30
now, the what is it? The the AMF is the Bowling League ABA.
5:38
Yeah, the PBA is the Professional Bowling Association am F is the I
5:44
don't know. Those are the people that run the lanes. That's maybe those
5:48
letters you always see on the little arm that comes down and sweeps all the
5:51
pins, well that you didn't knock down. I've been bowling I think twice.
5:57
Really growing up in Mesquite, I figured that would have been at least
6:00
a weekly thing. No no, no, no no, that's that was
6:02
a showtime lanes or in Mesuit and uh I went. We went once after
6:08
prom and I think we will the next morning after prom, and then we
6:12
went to I think I went there once after that, but no, it
6:16
was just it's just not a it's just not an our people thing like this.
6:20
Too many people in those shoes, like that's gross. Maybe maybe it's
6:25
because you didn't have the proper lure to get you to the bowling alley and
6:31
by and in this case, maybe what you were truly craving to get you
6:36
inside of a bowling alley is naked old people. Yes, that's what That's
6:43
what I know I was missing. Well you're not going to be missing it
6:46
anymore because circa ninety circa nineteen ninety, here is Hard Copies feature about naked
6:55
bowling in a small town. Mmmm. Oh wait, I have to unmute
7:02
it one moment. Yeah, now we're talking static. No one in Lake
7:14
Elson or California expected the eyeful they got on family bowling night, folks and
7:18
bowling shoes and nothing else. Old bowling footage, black and white. It's
7:27
the all American sport, family time, grilled cheese, team spirit. But
7:31
bowling has changed the bits since Ralph Cramden and Laverne and Chirley rolled their strikes
7:36
in Lake Elson, r California bowling will never be the same again. That's
7:41
worth to Then in color, meet the sun Bunch Sunday Bowling League, fifty
7:47
ladies and gentlemen who prefer bowling at the Brookstone Lanes in nothing but their bowling
7:53
shoes and socks. What's going to be next is now this if we allow
7:58
to have nude bowling, okay, but then what's next? So we say,
8:03
well, since we have nude bawling, now we can have uh,
8:05
nude shuffle board, you know, and then it's nude golfing and nude swimming,
8:13
and before you know it, nude fucking. We can't have that.
8:18
The Sun Bunch has found themselves under fire from home and above. They've been
8:24
ordered to grin and barrett and keep their pants on. All we do is
8:28
have a grand o time and holler and laugh and sheer and just have a
8:35
good time. And all we do is Bold Lake Elsinore is a quiet little
8:41
retirement villain talking. It is also home to thousands of nudists for more than
8:48
half a century. Snug up in the mountains. Enjoy the privacy and the
8:52
fresh air. There's nothing in the Bible that says you have have to wear
8:56
your clothes. This is flowing owns McConville, the oldest naked resort in the
9:03
nation, a couple of the early founders of nudism in America, where both
9:07
the UH ministers. What a man came to town, one of the more
9:13
unusual men of the ministry because he rides a motorcyat brought his congregation to this
9:18
peaceful valley four years ago. We say, okay, Lord, would you
9:24
join a nudist colony? And I'm telling you straight up, God is saying
9:28
no, I wouldn't. But still everyone got along until the nudist took over
9:33
the bowling alley. Jig Tel founded the Sun Bunch League. Last September with
9:43
their naked bowlers, the Brookstone Alley finally had enough revenue to stay open on
9:46
the weekend. Yeah that I told it is the newdest bowling league. They
9:50
have to check with the fire department, the health department, all the different
9:56
you know departments, the department ass department. The Sun Bunch blocking the windows
10:01
and shaded the doors and went about their bowling. And for most of the
10:05
season the sun Bunch was rolling along. They even bolstered Lake Elsinor's employment by
10:11
hiring Kenny at the snack Barny Longing and guard the door. They're not hurting
10:16
anyone, you know, they're having a good time for themselves and it's bringing
10:20
money for us. Real quick, How was this not an eighty sitcom?
10:24
How is Penny who's renting the shoes lining the security guy and all the all
10:28
the naked people bowling at the bowling alley? It sounds like a nineteen forties
10:31
propaganda ad. It's like, and don't forget to buy war bonds, like
10:35
that's like the guy who's talking like this Barry Nolan guy, like and this
10:39
is how our boys felt when they saw the nudists. Titties for America down
10:46
with hit brought to you by Johnson and Jams. The folks up a Pastor
10:50
Rich's Christian fellowship didn't cottonto the idea of naked people in the bowling alley.
10:56
They called the State Alcohol Control Board those best. It's kind of like,
11:01
hey, buddy, you know, if you want the Christians the bowl there,
11:03
you're gonna have to tell these people to put clothes on. Just last
11:07
week the state alcohol folks came around. The inspector said there are rules about
11:11
serving alcohol around naked people. What's a bully alley without the beer. We
11:16
pointed out to him that it had nothing to do with us, and that
11:22
we were fully clothed as servers and that we were just serving nudists. He
11:28
said that that didn't make any difference. He was going to use that regulation
11:31
to take away our license. The Sun Bunch offered to forget the beer if
11:35
they could finish up the season in the buff, but it was too late.
11:41
We came here if we want to see naked people, good Lord,
11:46
we see them all day long, so we didn't come here for that.
11:50
We want to finish our league. In the end, the nudists put their
11:52
shorts back on and simply bowl Topman to keep the bowling alley out of trouble.
11:58
But they're hoping that its own temporary. We're not coming back as the
12:03
Sun Punch League too bowl if we can't bowl in the way we contracted to
12:07
be bud Watch out, folks. Pastor rich Is watching God was saying,
12:13
hey, you guys need to be covered up now. What do you think
12:18
you can bet that if the Reverend is right and they started things like nude
12:20
golf will be there. Thank you, Barry Nolan for that, and thank
12:26
you, thank you hard Copy, and thank you Trey for finding that little
12:31
butt nugget of the Internet and sending it into the Treehouse games. Until Bob
12:37
did his strike celebration. It probably did get a shaky start though, because
12:45
Sue was too busy looking for the four finger bowl. I screwed that up.
12:50
The four hole ball. That's what I want. I don't want anybody
12:54
bowling the turkey there, did it? There's too much waddling. Oh God,
13:05
love, I just love Barry Nolan. He's my new favorite. And
13:07
that guy was reporting like he was from the forties, like and the nudists
13:11
will be back. And I also remember stay away from the Germans, you
13:16
know who bowls with the clothes on. Jerry. Oh, that was great,
13:24
Thank you so much for it. I didn't watch it because I knew
13:28
what it was going to do, which is white people. And once again
13:33
it seems true because I grew up like during my adolescence whenever I go to
13:39
my dad's house because he had HBO, and that meant if I stayed up
13:41
late enough, I could then see the real sex show. And that was
13:46
when I realized that most of the people that were naked on real sex.
13:48
Were the people you didn't want to see naked, that kind of like that
13:52
kind of like it nudist places. It's not exactly Victoria's secret models and playboy
13:56
bunnies running around at the nudist colonies. No, no, no, these
14:01
are the people. That's why they're in the mountains, like they just want
14:03
to just gotta just go away, like we don't want to be able to
14:05
look up and see it, so just go up into a mountain somewhere.
14:09
But I do admire their their stance and wanting to finish their league to the
14:13
point where they agreed to put pants on. You know, that's just that's
14:18
dedicating. But the ladies, it's the ladies are still are still swinging,
14:24
and if we're being honest, most of the men are not exactly in great
14:28
shape, so they're swinging to let me And I think that's the most offensive
14:35
part. I think Bob having to cover up his droopy balls there's a big
14:43
bonus there. Yeah, especially when after he's done with his celebration, after
14:50
after you know, throwing a strike is when he is when he airs his
14:54
balls off over that little a big old smile and still it gets caught in
15:01
between two balls coming in over the now that I think Pastor Jeff would have
15:11
been. That was a sign from the Lord exactly. You're listening to the

16:57
hard copy. Apparently nothing ruins a good time faster than a motorcycle riding evangelical,
17:07
yes, I agree, or just evangelicals just in general to a certain
17:14
extent. Yeah, but I wanted to be really specific here for Pastor Richard,
17:17
who is very appropriately named. Yes, oh, Pastor dick Way to
17:23
live up to the name, which, by the way, I really hate
17:27
it when when people claim to speak for God. He's like, no,
17:30
I talked to God. I asked him, and he said put your clothes
17:33
on, and then I got on my motorcycle and ran away. It's like,
17:36
well, I bet Pastor Richard felt really weird the first time he rolled
17:40
into Sturgis. Yeah, that's as I don't. I don't think they well
17:45
they let him in. I don't know, I mean not with that attitude.
17:49
Yeah, I got invited to a buddy mine was a vice president over
17:53
at a triumph and he's like, you gotta come to Sturges with me.
17:56
And I'm like, I'm good, I'll fast. It's like, no,
18:00
you got to man, come on. I'm like, I'll Is there a
18:03
stop before I'll go all the way to that part? Is there? Is
18:08
there south Sturges? Yeah? Is there a non murdery part of it?
18:14
I'll go to that spot. Uh, you guys go have fun over there.
18:17
I'll be over here. So yeah, that that the history of the
18:21
Dakota's is steeped to murder. So you know, you sound like a really
18:26
dejected tour guide of the Dakota's, the tour guide on his last day.
18:30
It's all murder here, folks. I watched Deadwood. I know so speak
18:40
speaking of of nudists and meaning that those are typically the people I don't want
18:45
to see naked. I feel I feel like it's a natural segue to bring
18:51
up someone else that I would not ever want to see naked at a newdist
18:53
camp. Nor do I want to see him on the sidelines again as head
18:57
coach of the Cowboys. And that is of Mike McCarthy and Jerry Jones.
19:04
Released a statement the other day. I'm going I read the whole statement,
19:11
and I almost said where he pointed out and stated his confidence in Mike McCarthy
19:18
to lead this team to the Promised Land. But as I go back and
19:22
think about what he actually said in the statement, he really didn't say that
19:27
this guy's great. He just said this is our He thinks it's their best
19:33
shot, and which tells me it's kind of a lack of options because I
19:37
feel like Jerry Jones is making this decision based on his age. He thinks,
19:41
this is my last window to see a super Bowl before I die,
19:48
and the best way to do that is to let McCarthy finish this out,
19:51
because if he brings in somebody else or hires somebody else, then there's gonna
19:56
be some rebuild and Jerry might die before he gets to hoist the trophy one
20:00
last time. Trey, I am curious to know your your thoughts on McCarthy
20:06
sticking around. I want to I would love to say I am shocked and
20:11
surprised, but it's so typical of Jerry, and that's I mean. I
20:18
think this pressure, the pressure he feels because of his age. I mean,
20:26
I think that's been part of what's been guiding the team for probably the
20:29
last ten years. And I just don't I don't know how you watched that
20:36
game and watched Green Bay just dismantle you and go no, But we're on
20:42
the right path because it's the same thing. I mean, great regular season
20:48
in the playoffs and that's the other thing too. It's not like this was
20:51
just one game under the tutelage of Mike McCarthy where we're all, as I
20:57
said in the Football podcast last week, where we're all left a gape,
21:04
because you had it previously this season with the Buffalo game where it looked like
21:08
the Cowboys didn't even bother to show up, They didn't even bother to try
21:11
them out to come back, at least at least in this game against the
21:15
Packers. They got some garbage time touchdowns to make it seem a little bit
21:18
better, but they were still terrible. Before that, they get rolled by
21:22
San Francisco, they had, you know, the losses that they had this
21:26
year were either they got their ass kicked or like the example in Philadelphia,
21:30
they were so stupid they couldn't win. And then there's the previous beating by
21:36
the forty nine ers in the playoffs where they don't have any clear strategy at
21:38
the end of the game. In other words, there's multiple instances of McCarthy
21:42
basically pulling on McCarthy, so it's not like this is an exception. Raj.
21:52
My theory is what he threw the whatever was in his hand down and
21:56
said that game, they started calling other coaches and yeah, uh, the
22:03
his kids and him started calling other coaches and offering out the job. And
22:08
I'm pretty sure the are you going to give up the general manager's position so
22:12
that we can have more control came up and they and Jerry said nope.
22:17
And the only person that would agree to it was Mike McCarthy and everybody else
22:19
said no. So he had to save face because apparently there was a call
22:23
put out to Belichick, so he had to save face from being told by
22:27
being told no by every other coach that's available, and go, no,
22:32
no, that's my guy. I believe in him. So it's at all
22:36
if they would have If Belichick would have been like, you know what,
22:37
you keep all the control and just let me do this and I'll do this
22:41
and I'll get this, he would have immediately taken and I'm not. I'm
22:45
not so convinced that even if Belichick had if that was if all that be
22:51
let's if all that was true, and let's say if Belichick's like, yeah,
22:55
you can keep this and I'll just coach, you can get your GM
22:56
stuff, I still would not actually be in love with that hire because,
23:03
for being honest, how did Belichick look after Brady? Right? So there
23:11
was the concern I'm sure on Brady's part and thinking's like, hey, if
23:14
I leave and I don't and if I don't succeed with Belichick, then he's
23:17
going to get all the credit. But Brady obviously knew the deal. He's
23:19
like, no, I'm I'm the badass. I'm gonna go to Tampa win
23:23
one, and Belichick's gonna languish in New England. That's what happened. So
23:27
I wouldn't have been one hundred percent on board with a Belichick higher anyway.
23:32
But there's rumors that other people would have leapt at the job, like a
23:37
Harbaugh Jim not John Jim Harbaugh Michigan. Rumors were he wanted. I think
23:42
there's a couple other names mentioned that they would have been, Yeah, give
23:45
me that job. But we don't know if those calls were made to those
23:48
individuals or not, right, I just at the end of it, I
23:53
just I feel, I understand that death is a hell of a motivator,
23:59
and the fear of it is what seems to be motivating Jerry in the franchise.
24:06
And also keeping in mind, yeah, Jerry has the GM title,
24:10
but I mean in a big chunk of that has been handed off to Steven
24:12
as it is, and Will McLay, who's you know, over the operations
24:18
and is in charge basically of the draft, who's drafted his ass off in
24:21
the years that he's been working with the Cowboys, specifically before that he was
24:26
in the organization ish as the head coach of the Desperadoes. I just I'm
24:33
sorry if I'm if I'm an NFL coach and they say, hey, you
24:34
want to coach the Cowboys, You're going to say yes. Whether or not
24:37
it's the GM thing, unless you're a Belichick type, I don't know.
24:41
And it's also you know, admitting, you know, Jerry admitting that he
24:45
was wrong, like, hey, you know this was the wrong I made
24:48
the wrong call by keeping him over Kellen Moore because I think, regardless of
24:52
what Kellen Moore. You can say that he's done, you know, terrible
24:56
over over in Los Angeles, but he's brand new with the brand new team.
25:02
He was doing very well with this team and had I think they let
25:06
go of McCarthy and moved Kellen Moore. I think it would have been a
25:10
more successful team. I don't know if they would have gone to the super
25:12
Bowl, and I think it would have been a much more successful team.
25:15
You're getting the vulcan eyebrow from the trade. Yes, yeah, there was
25:21
nothing about Kellen Moore's offensive play calling that I there was. There were fresh
25:26
plays to be a head coach, No, no, but I think I
25:29
think there was a young He brought a young, energetic style to coaching,
25:33
and I think he had some new ideas. He had some plays that were
25:36
not your traditional NFL football plays. I liked that. I liked you know,
25:41
we need to get it's the same thing, man, It's it's it's
25:45
like it's you stop having old old dudes coaching because they have an old mentality.
25:52
Well, I will say this though, about McCarthy. His play calling
25:55
on the offensive side, it was better than Kellen Moore's. There was more.
26:00
There's actually more creativity with what McCarthy was doing versus Kellen Moore, because
26:03
one of the big gripes we all had while watching games called by Kellen Moore
26:07
was after the game opposing defense is that one said, yeah, we knew
26:12
what they were running. There was also like a complete lack of motion.
26:17
We were getting two X and O on it. But I mean, at
26:21
least McCarthy would move ceedee lamb around the field to make you find him,
26:25
whereas you know, Kellen mar' is like, oh, I get there he
26:26
is, there's eighty eight. We got him. Anyway, My whole thing
26:30
is then he goes back to the coach sets sort of the standard for the
26:33
culture, sets the attitude for the team, and a blah looking McCarthy on
26:38
the sideline transitioned into a blah looking team, especially when they get their ass
26:45
kicked, because they all look like kind of like, well what happened?
26:48
And next thing you know, McCarthy's thinking more about his Sonic Drive home order.
26:55
Maybe just the waitetime on his order was so long. He's like,
26:59
oh, I can't I can't coach this team. It's gonna take fifty five
27:03
minutes for it to get here. That is under now. I don't know.
27:07
Uh, I just think keeping McCarthy here for I mean, what is
27:11
in what's the contract extension another year? There's not an extension. He's just
27:15
he's got one year left, one left, and that's what's gonna He's just
27:19
basically whether or not he sees the end of the contract. I don't know,
27:22
because if they start the season, if they start the season like crap,
27:26
then Jerry will bounce him. I think the big question is gonna be
27:29
is whether or not we retain dan Quinn because in my mind, you could
27:32
have very easily jettisoned McCarthy and upped dan Quinn would be great and not had
27:37
a huge loss other than figuring something out on the offensive side. Yeah,
27:45
I think that would have been I would have preferred that. I think that
27:47
would have been great. Yeah, that's a that's a but again it is
27:52
you know, the the fans calling for McCarthy's head and Jerry going no,
27:55
I'm not wrong. I think I think then that what we're left with is
28:02
that clearly McCarthy has video of Jerry Jones naked bowling, and that's that's the
28:07
only thing keeping him on the sidelines. Although let's be honest, if a
28:12
video of Jerry Jones surfaced of him naked bowling, especially circa nineteen ninety and
28:18
being caught on camera by hard copy, would any of us have been surprised?
28:22
No, grossed out, but not surprised. Uh, you can't unsee
28:30
that now, man, You know what it really was. It really was
28:33
as Jerry said then that those glory whole days, because I mean that was'ts
28:40
that's pre salary kept partying right there at the bowling alley, naked, cocaine
28:48
snorting and in the corner Michael Irvin going, is there any other kind?
29:00
You're in the tree House? Visit us online at Treehouseonair dot com. Let's
29:11
get Carrie Cook from Cook DFW Roofing and Restoration into the Treehouse for your free
29:15
roof inspection eight three three cook DFW the website cookdfw dot com. I have
29:19
a very serious question for you today, Carrie, and I want you to
29:22
pay very close attention to it, Okay, because it's very important. I
29:26
got a all. Right, here we go. So Applebe's the very famous
29:30
chain restaurant. They are selling a date night pass costs two hundred bucks.
29:34
And this means you would get thirty dollars off your next fifty two visits over
29:38
the next year, and if you use it properly, you could save thirteen
29:44
hundred dollars in the year. So my question to you is, if you
29:48
had to choose one chain restaurant to eat at for an entire year, where
29:52
are you taking Daniel or where has he taken you? So national chain,
29:56
well wouldn't be apple Bee's. I can promise you that one. Ooh,
29:59
okay, I would do it for writy. So I would say maybe Texas
30:02
Roadhouse. Oh, I hadn't thought about that one. That's a good one.
30:04
That's a really good one. What do you think, Well, I
30:07
hadn't thought of Texas Roadhouse. But the added benefit of Texas Roadhouse is maybe
30:11
you're an into their kick ass manager Don Swayzee, and right there exactly,
30:19
that's exactly what's gonna happen. That might be worth fifty two visits for the
30:22
year. My answer, though, my answer was Chili's for two reasons.
30:29
Number One, Tara and I and our last couple of visits uh To uh
30:33
To, Texas have not been able to stop in it. Chilis to get
30:36
the chips in salsa with the ranch. Have you done that? No,
30:41
Yeah, it's not. It's not like a like a super secret menu hack.
30:44
It's something you know what you do as you get the chips and salsa,
30:45
you also ask for a side of ranch, and then you combine.
30:48
You combine the ranch and it is good. And those chips are paper thin
30:55
and I can eat of them. And the menu have some decent variety as
31:00
well. But I could. I could probably live on chips. I like,
31:03
I like yours. I like the Texas Roadhouse. That's good because you
31:04
can people can live on the rolls alone. In case you've had too much
31:10
butter and rolls and you've been running around your roof, you probably have some
31:12
holes that you've put in it, So you need to call COOKDFW Roofing and
31:17
Restoration right now for that free roof inspection eight three to three cook DFW or
31:21
the website cookdfw dot com. Business online at Treehouse on Air dot com.
31:26

course from Brooks Plumbing for all your plumbing once and needs, especially if you've
31:33

31:37
three six eight thirty eight thirty eight. I asked this off Kerrie Cook from
31:41
COOKDFW Roofing and Restoration, and I'm curious to get your thoughts as well.
31:45
Applebee's has made available their date Night Pass that means you can eat at Applebees
31:51
every week of the year or one price two hundred bucks, and if you
31:53
use it properly, you could save thirteen hundred dollars over the year. So
31:57
my question to you is this, if you had to choose one chain restaurant
32:01
to eat at for an entire year, where are you going? I want
32:06
to cheat. I want to give a two part answer. Local chain will
32:08
always be Campeses. I need the pizza, I answer right there. Yeah,
32:15
but a boom, you know, but a ban But if I have
32:19
to choose a national chaines, It's gonna be texted at the Roadhouse. I
32:22
have nothing against Applebee's nothing, no, And it not that that's the most
32:27
fantastic chain restaurant by any means, but I feel like, I mean,
32:31
it's steak, It's Texas Roadhouse. Do you not miss the the buns living
32:36
where you live? The rolls? Oh? I do? I do?
32:38
And it's and it's fantastic because Kerrie Cook said the same thing. She also
32:43
said Texas Roadhouse. The rolls in the butter were mentioned steak. Certainly.
32:47
Yeah, if they opened up a Texas Roadhouse here on Saint John, I'd
32:51
probably be doing sawdust angels in the middle of the floor. Well, clearly,
32:53
this segment of the treehouse brought to you by Texas Roadhouse, not Cook
32:59
Roofing and not Brooks Plumbing. It was Texas Roadhouse. You know what,

33:14
go out together. Okay the next road trip we can have at a Texas
33:17
Roadhouse when you come back to town next and they can sponsor it. And
33:22
not only that, but we can have Don Swaysey run security for us.
33:25
I'd be perfect. Yes. I bought Colby, my husband fiance whatever.

quick yes or no? Uh? Are you guys fans of the Applebee's your
34:37
neighborhood restaurant or is it your neighborhood bistrom? I don't know if I've ever
34:43
been, oh an Applebee's Virgin. You're from Mesquite and you've never been to
34:47
Applebee's. That's a that's a serious accomplishment. I've been to Chili. Is
34:52
enough time? To count on one hand, I don't. Isn't that kind
35:00
of the same place? No, no, no, no, Chilis has
35:01
chicken crispers. No, they don't anymore. They've they've taken I know they
35:07
got rid of the skillet case though, and that's I think where they kind
35:08
of. But but the the Jay mcclintok, the GM over at uh,
35:15
the Jamilclinton, the GM Jay McClintock at the Addison improv refuses to ever eat
35:21
at Chilies again because they removed the crispers. You know what, I understand
35:25
the boycott. I understand the position and I respect it. I don't I
35:31
maybe have been inside the bar to have a beer. Maybe. I don't
35:37
think I've ever been to an Applebee's. I can are you a big foam
35:40
finger number one of the Applebee's. I've been to Applebee's. I uh,
35:47
it's it's been a minute and there there there are none around me. Uh.
35:52
Applebee's is like a mall suburbs type thing in my mind more than anything.
35:58
Yeah, you're closer to the heart of Dallas, and it's not a
36:00
whole lot of Applebee's action. There isn't the one where then were you used
36:04
to living where I currently live now. Isn't the one allcross from now Walmart?
36:07
Isn't there on Marsh in that in that Carleton areas the water Burger and
36:15
the the Starbucks. Isn't it? Isn't that an apple Bee's right there?
36:20
I believe it is there is There is an Applebee's there. And the entire
36:22
time that Tara and I lived in that general vicinity of Frankfurt and Marsh,
36:28
we went to that Applebee's once. Oh okay, it's not It's not a
36:30
good Applebee's. I don't know the difference is there? Does that exist?
36:35
I mean, I don't know. It's like all I know is I'm asking
36:38
you guys this because Applebee's just in time for Valentine's Day. Uh So,
36:43
Raj, if you're looking for something to get your lady for Valentine's Day,
36:47
I've got you. Applebee's is has announced their date Night Pass for two hundred
36:53
dollars. You can get the Applebee's Date Night Pass, which is good for
37:00
thirty percent off fifty two dinners for an entire year, which if used properly,
37:07
you could save thirteen hundred dollars in that year. So there you go.
37:15
There's the big there's the Wow Valentine's Gift. You can get your Lady
37:19
Raj. It's the Applebe's Date Night Pass. And I have the TV on
37:22
in front of me and there's a commercial. Does that include the Applebee's fourteen
37:28
ninety nine All you Can Eat is that? Oh? I don't know,
37:32
but typically that's where you want to read that fine print at the bottom of
37:36
the screen, and a lot of times that fine print will say cannot combine
37:38
offers got you, but I don't know got you? Okay, because this
37:44
is apparently but it's just the commercials over. But apparently it was some sort
37:49
of buffalo bite and maybe some sort of shrimp and ribs of some sort were
37:55
on this all you can Eat apple Apple Bee. Man, if I took
38:01
my girl with that Applebee's, that's where I go so so so I'm dying
38:07
and this is all the money I have left for this place. Please just
38:10
get the all you can eat that's or if she takes me to Applebee's,
38:15
I'm waiting to come back home and all my ship is packed. So then
38:20
let me ask you, guys, if and it's fine to say Applebe's if
38:23
that's your answer, If you had to eat at any chain restaurant for an
38:27
entire year. Where are you gonna go? What's your choice? An entire
38:32
year? I would have to eat once a week. You said, once
38:37
a week chain restaurant for an entire year. Where are you going? I
38:42
could go? I could. I could do outback. I'm with you.
38:47
That's a good answer. I like out back there they're harder to find.
38:51
Yeah. Is the one in Addison still there off the belt line? Yeah?
38:53
Yeah, okay, good because that that that was that was our go
38:57
to outback for a while. I out back is always pleased to me.
39:00
Uh in Texas, land and cattle were still around, I might have gone
39:04
that route. Yeah, but I think for me it might actually I think
39:08
it might be Chili's because at least at least there's a variety there and and
39:14
tar, and I can get to chips and salsa and ranch. Could you
39:17
get now that they're making a comeback my number one spot, I'd have to
39:22
go with Steak and Ale. Oh yeah, they are making a comeback.
39:25
I forgot about that. Okay when they opened back up Trey. You need
39:29
to go and then come back and be the true and be the Treehouse food
39:31
critic and let us know how the new Steak and Ale is. Absolutely aren't
39:36
they opening just in the in the Midwest right now, there's like seven Steak
39:38
and eles opening in the Midwest. They have plans to relaunch it. But
39:42
I know the other one that's making a comeback, and I would go there
39:45
because I enjoyed the monte Cristo. I would have I would have gone to
39:47
a Bennigans. Bring on the Bennigans baby. Maybe that's maybe that's the answer.
39:52
Maybe that's the question I should be asking, which is, if you
39:53
could bring back a dead national restaurant chain, what would it be? And
39:59
the O'Malley house old is firmly in support of bringing back Benniganster and I were
40:02
just talking about it yesterday about how we could really go for some Bennegan's honey
40:07
mustard, the turkey o tool. Oh yeah, oh yeah. I went
40:09
to uh, there's some I can't remember the name of the bar and on
40:13
the bar restaurant Legacy West, and they had a monte Cristo that was pretty
40:16
pretty good, but it wasn't wasn't anywhere near the old Bennigans trey where you're
40:22
going for a year. I'd have to say, if Chili still had the
40:30
Terlingua Burger, which was the Chili Burger, I probably would say Chili's.
40:35
Uh. TGI Fridays, Oh, tatuskins never go wrong, Okay, okay,
40:42
Yeah, the the appetizer menu at TGI Fridays was was was pretty solid.
40:46
I get that, Okay, they do. They still have to wear
40:50
the flair and they have to have a certain number of flare on them.
40:54
I haven't been to a Fridays and so long. I couldn't tell you if
40:58
they still if that's evening. That is one thing that that the movie Office
41:04
Space probably really changed the the HR issues with TGI Fridays. It's like,
41:09
now, if we can really keep this up after the movie. Yeah,
41:13
but that's the oldest thing that you said in a while. Trade like,
41:16
I haven't been doing applebee TGI Fridays in so long. It could be TG
41:20
on Mondays by now. Maybe bring it back and make it, make it
41:27
TGI three day weekends, TGI Bank Holiday. Look, all I know is
41:36
this, you got Applebee's with the date Night pass for two hundred bucks,
41:39
and I'm left with a single thought of if you're having date night at Applebee's,
41:45
you need a divorce pass. Having date night at Applebee's, you're cheating
41:52
on your wife. If you're using date night at Applebee's, you spent over
42:01
thirty five dollars at Applebee's. Hey, question all your decisions Applebee's. Who
42:10
know hookers like to eat here? Oh? Come on, you knew,
42:20
you knew the dollar marks get him every time? All right, thanks for
42:28
hanging out with us Inside the Treehouse, episode seventy one. We'll see you
42:30
later on this week back inside the Treehouse for now, have a great week.
42:35
Raj's good luck at physical therapy. Thank you, Trey. If you
42:38
roll past the TGI Fridays hop in just'm I'm gonna stop buying the Ritz.
42:45
And that's one of the hookers. I'm like, I know you know you're
42:47
slumming it here here? How about it go to apple Bees? Why don't
42:53
you ditch this this this place? Yeah? Or she's just looking at you
42:58
know, great, I have a date pass. Chee cheeze I
