I'm a sub lover, but I think I'm dominating this podcast. Damn. You do have the deeper voice. but i'm I'm always first on the beat after the intro.
00:00:31
thinkfresh
I'm a first mover advantage, so I get to throw you a few shots before you can even speak. That's right. I like to see how Ty jumps in so that I can kind of match his freak. You know what I mean? Usually Ty will um come up with a new way to say hello, breadheads, every single time. We're on number 372. It's a freak-off every time. It's a freaky way to get off at Subway. Yeah, that's for sure.
Vegas Adventures and Impressions
00:00:56
thinkfresh
OK, so what's on what's on the menu today, King?
00:00:58
thinkfresh
Well, Ty, we're coming off the long weekend. Long weekend here in Canada. Both of us left the city, which was a nice switch up. um i never nick You'll never catch me switching on my order, but I might be in a different zip code or area code yeah every single time. King size beds and different area codes. That's right. um Somebody walking up looks a lot like Fogel. I'll be real nice. Oh, shit. We got a Fogel walking by. We're recording, obviously, in the mobile booth station outside a subway, as we do.
00:01:27
thinkfresh
Yeah, we got some focal light characters patronied this establishment. Makes sense. It does make sense. It's been almost a week since our last recording session, Ty. I think we recorded on Wednesday last week or something like that. We've got so much to cover. Lots to cover. You were in ah sinful Las Vegas. Sin City. That's right. right um What happens in Vegas goes on this podcast. This is of a tell-all episode. Dude, nothing ever stays in Vegas. That is such a misnomer. um All things eventually come to the light on this podcast. Yeah, absolutely. A guy just walked by wearing boiler room merch. What is going on at the subway? And he's carrying a walkie-talkie out. Wow, this is Charlie XCX doing a DJ set here? What's going on? Potentially. That's kind of a cool shirt. that is fine cool um Hey, thanks to everyone who copped the shirt. Yeah, shout out to all of our, not just listeners, but customers. We appreciate you. That's right. Shop.thinkfreshpodcast.com. Check out the merch, support the pod.
00:02:31
thinkfresh
amen We're going to need it when we eventually get into a legal battle with Subway by using a variation of their logo. It's only a matter of time. yeah Instead of you know donating your money to like Whole Foods or something on your next grocery trip, you should donate it to us. Help us you know with this GoFundMe to fight the the big Subway. dude Calling your Shopify a GoFundMe is pretty funny. um The only thing I'm donating to is some rich dude's wine seller because that's where all my money went to in Vegas. was Just gifting it to the the executive board of MGM. Yeah, the slot machines there are kind of like a reverse vending machine. They don't vend anything. they just You just put your coins in and you lose them forever. That's probably how like a blind person feels using a vending machine because
00:03:21
thinkfresh
You like hear some sounds after you put the money in, but you're not really sure if it paid out. Yeah, you hear a cha-ching, but the wrong kind. you know It's like someone's bank account saying cha-ching, not yours.
Vegas Experiences: Sensory Overload and Unique Encounters
00:03:31
thinkfresh
Dude, man, Vegas is crazy. It's my first time ever there, but it's like the weirdest and most wonderful place on earth. You've been before. You clearly know what I'm talking about. yeah Um, I was staying at, uh, the parking gym on the strip, which like, it was nice because I felt like I was, you, you've watched hunger games, right? You've lived hunger games. What do you mean? Have I lived hungry? You're a hungry man. Well, I'm always, yeah, I'm perpetually hungry. Yes. Yeah, exactly.
00:03:58
thinkfresh
Um, that's, I felt like I was like in the Capitol the entire time I was in Vegas because I was in the nice part of the strip with like beautiful people walking everywhere, expansive hallways, decadent chandeliers, money going everywhere, free drinks. Everything's bougie. And then once in a while you'd like leave that quarter. You go to, you go to treasure Island, you go to New York, New York, or you go out to heaven forbid, Fremont Street. And you're like in old, these like older areas that just like Hunger Games, you're like leaving the Capitol and going out to the districts, you know, right? And they're like, the your kind's not welcome. Yeah, exactly. That's where the uggos live and the poor people and it's crowded and
00:04:41
thinkfresh
feels a bit dangerous. It kind of like taking transit. It's kind of like taking transit. It even smells bad, to like transit. it's like you lose your line You're thinking like, wow, I could get like killed or robbed at any moment. It stinks. I don't want to be around anyone. I don't want to even touch anything, you know? ah You just wish you were back in the Uber black. 100%.
00:05:02
thinkfresh
So tell me more. You went out to the dirty armpit of Vegas, which is Fremont Street. And what did you see there? Oh, man, it's so busy there. There's like people dressed up in ah feathered costumes like birds. There's half naked people walking around for photos. Super crowded. um I actually like went into the Golden and Nugget. I went into some of the hotels and kind of explored the floors.
00:05:29
thinkfresh
played a little bit of a roulette. Actually, okay, at one point during the weekend, a friend of mine was super drunk in one of the casinos at the oh at Caesar's Palace, and then they threw their drink on the ground by accident. The glass smashed, and they panicked, and they just ran out of the casino, leaving me and a few others to kind of resolve the incident.
00:05:56
thinkfresh
Great friend. Yeah. Flash forward 24 hours later and I'm at the golden nugget at the like a dingy a roulette table trying to like get in on the table and the person gambling there turns to me and says, Hey,
00:06:11
thinkfresh
you're You're the guy with the friend that broke the glass. ah wow It's like, oh no, we're iconic. Dude, being recognized in a Vaze casino is not a never good place to be. No, it's not a good look. That just made me very self-conscious that your actions are watched by the other customers. the other Not only that, but there was probably like 35 cameras that saw that way saw what you did as well. Oh, yeah. You're like on a list somewhere for sure. Your face has been digitally scanned.
00:06:37
thinkfresh
and like you can never go into the city of vegas again without like the authorities being alerted you know 100 you're banned from this adult disneyland yeah it's wild there dude what a what a weird place so i imagine vegas has a few subways in it they do i i don't i haven't had the pleasure of you know patroning them myself but Did you see them? Did you walk by them? Did you eat at them? I did not eat at Subway, although I do have many interesting food stories to share. Okay. I walked past one Subway a couple of times. It was right on the strip. It was, I think it was near the Flamingo. And that one's my favorite. No way. You've been in there? Yeah. Oh, wow. Well, it's weird because, uh, what was really weird about that one, Eric, is every time I walked by it, there was only women in it.
00:07:31
thinkfresh
One time I even counted 12 women, like multiple different girl gang groups, hanging out inside and around the door. They're all in short really short dresses. They're all having fun night out, getting their little six inches. And it just, I couldn't fathom it. I'm like, what is going on at this subway? This is the only subway on earth that I've ever seen, one woman, let alone a dozen. There's not a single man in there. Interesting. Zero. I never saw a single man in this subway. Okay, I see. only women every time I walk by it. And we're talking about staff and patron. I think so. I never, I don't typically look at the staff. Yeah, you don't really like to humanize the staff. No, exactly. I'm just talking customers here. You stare at the buckets and keep your eyes to yourself, you know. Yeah, eyes down there.
00:08:18
thinkfresh
ah And that is the exact opposite of the subway that I'm standing outside of right now, Eric, where even today during this episode, not a single woman has walked in that door. It's been only men since we started recording. That's right.
00:08:31
thinkfresh
Man, I got to say, just the city of Vegas in general is such a sensory overload. It is. Shout out to our last episode. But I don't know. There's something about it. I just feel so stimulated when I'm there that I can't make any sound decisions. And I feel like that's intentional. And it kind of reminds me of the menu at Subway. If you're living in the Subway menu, it's kind of like you're living in Vegas. That was actually the only kind of macro reflection I had on this place. It's like, oh my God, this city is the subway of America. Because there's a kink for everybody there. you know there's You can do Vegas however you want. Yeah, dude, you can really build your own tragedy there. like No matter what, you'll regret it at the end, but you feel like you're in control of however you want to customize your experience there.
00:09:24
thinkfresh
the You're totally right. you're You are in control. However, the end result's always the exact same. Yeah. you know It's like you can sprinkle. Yeah, you can get, you know, a nice little base layer of debt going. ye You know what I mean? You can sprinkle a little bit of, you know, altercation with homeless person, um you know, and then if they, if you want to really toast it, you know what I mean? You can invite Hooker to your room. Dude, that's, yeah, you're toasting for sure. You're going to be burning, that's for sure. Uh, hook, line, stinker, hooker, liner, stinker. Exactly. Hook, hooker, lines, stinker. That's Vegas. Right. Hookers, doing lines and what's, how do you make a stinker at so at subway and Vegas time? Dude, everything I make at subway is a stinker at some point. Yeah, my hands are stinking after the hookers and blow. Yeah, exactly.
Exploring Vegas: Attractions and AI
00:10:19
thinkfresh
Yeah, dude, they're kind of the same place. And in both cases, at the very end, you regret all of your decisions, you wish you could go back in time, and you have to keep what you did a secret. Oh, man. What happens in Subway, baby? And also chain smoking afterwards is a nice way to end the night. It's a good way to get the stink off. Exactly. Stink City. Yeah, dude. Stink City.
00:10:46
thinkfresh
um Yeah, Vegas is weird. I went to the sphere. That was kind of oh interesting. um It's clearly been the most popular Vegas thing to videotape in recent days. So what did you see there? Well, they do this thing called the sphere experience. The sphere experience. I was trying to put that one together too, but I couldn't get there in time.
00:11:09
thinkfresh
It's a silly little video, kind of like an IMAX flyover of Earth, where they tell you a cute story about how humankind was birthed on Earth, destroyed Earth, and eventually had to move off planet with lots of slow drone pans over different beautiful cyic scenes. Kind of imagine that. The irony is so beautiful here, Ty.
00:11:32
thinkfresh
like we've destroyed earth and we get to watch it in this monstrosity of a building. It was crazy thinking about that to be like in the middle of the desert being like this place should not exist at all and this video is about how we manipulated the earth beyond its ability to sustain us.
00:11:50
thinkfresh
The irony was not lost on me. Wow. So how much do these tickets cost? Dude, they're crazy expensive. And let me tell you right now, Eric, it is not worth the money. No? No. I think I paid 200 Canadian per ticket.
00:12:05
thinkfresh
Okay wow. Yeah not not cheap. And and now like I don't even know if like floor seats in this case are good not because you're looking at the sky. Maybe like for a concert you want to get still close to the stage but for the like the actual cinematic thing you want to be There's not really a bad seat would be my advice to any breadheads thinking of attending. You don't need to be in the very middle of the room to really enjoy it. you could be I would get the cheapest tickets. I would go up in the corner. It doesn't matter. It's a big enough screen. um I paid for like the second cheapest tickets.
00:12:37
thinkfresh
But honestly, the video is like kind of mids. It felt like they didn't really take advantage of the format in order to really show off the power of ah like a 360 screen like that. But what was cool about it was the lobby before the show starts. You walk through the atrium outside, like any stadium, but they had ambient lighting and ambient music. it felt very otherworldly wow and they had these hot robots hanging out that you could walk up to and talk to and they would respond and ask you questions back. You could have a conversation with them and they had like realistic lips and faces and they moved really, really human like.
00:13:21
thinkfresh
I know a place where you can do something like this as well. yeah Tell me more. At Subway, you can talk to some AIs. Yeah, dude, they're both a similar degree of lifelike movement. Exactly. You don't need to interact with them. All you have to do is you know press X if you would like to.
00:13:37
thinkfresh
the Exactly. They're very NPC. And these robots felt like NPCs too, but I was quite mesmerized with how i I guess just like present they were. They could address a crowd. They could understand how many people they were talking to. So what if a robot just walks up to you and is like, look at you fucking geezers. What's going on? So whose birthday is it? One day robots are going to be the funniest comedians. They're going to go on stage and they're just going to troll the whole crowd. 100%.
00:14:05
thinkfresh
They can do a whole look up and you could dock the robot community could dock somebody right on stage. Yeah, this is ah one of the biggest like flaws in AI or like robots in general, I guess. They're not funny and they should be like just having like someone just crack jokes all day that you can reuse with your boys. That is that is the real value here. I just don't think they'll have ever ah be able to draw on like the same experiences as us to create those funny moments.
00:14:35
thinkfresh
That's because corporate America wants to optimize for productivity, Eric. But we should be optimizing for humor. and would The world would be so much better place if all the robot investment was into funny robots. I think it would just be like a way better world.
00:14:50
thinkfresh
Oh man. I mean, at that point, like like we already have the sex robots tie, which is like for the boys. um But the funny robots, that'll take all of our chicks. Damn, all I got going for me is that I'm funny. Exactly. That's all we have left tie. And if we have robots that are able to be funnier than us,
00:15:10
thinkfresh
And stronger than us? Oh no. Yeah. Can protect the family with their like turrets that are built into their arms. I guess we as men need to finally start working on our emotional maturity in order to stay competitive. Yeah. Hand me the sponge and soap. I'm cleaning the dishes tonight. Talk to me about your feelings. I'll validate them tonight. Yeah. Yeah. It's rough out there.
00:15:36
thinkfresh
I'd love to tell you a little bit about some of the food that I ate. Yes, please. Okay. Had a lot of weird meals. Where do I even start? I'll start with the worst meal. I went to Rainforest Cafe.
00:15:51
thinkfresh
Okay, it sounds familiar. Yeah. Why do I know this place? It's a chain. They're all over the world in random touristy destinations. Is this like a vegan spot? No, no, The food there is terrible. It's like all they sell are tortilla chips and dip. Interesting. But Rainforest Cafe is from the 80s or 90s. It's themed like a jungle. It's just like they just picked jungle in general. Like there's a zebra like standing in the cafe, like an animatronic zebra.
00:16:21
thinkfresh
Which makes no sense at all. Zebras are not in the rainforest, but it doesn't matter. There's also animatronic monkeys and elephants. Okay. And every 30 minutes, there's a thunderstorm throughout the room. I love that. Yeah. It's dude, it's such a sensory overload because there's like a guy making balloon animals, although servers are like saying, seeing happy birthday at every table because it's just groups of children going there.
00:16:44
thinkfresh
Yeah, it kind of reminds me of the Tonga room in San Francisco. It's kind of like the Tonga room if the Tonga room was made of plastic. Damn. I mean, that's what Vegas is in a nutshell. It's like everything is just like a rip off from somewhere else. And they add like animatronic monkeys. Yeah, it's a very, it's a derivative, essentially. This is a derivative of the rainforest. Interesting. Cool. It felt very Vegas, but the food there is so bad, dude. like it's like Like what I'm picturing you can get there is like an acai bowl.
00:17:13
thinkfresh
you'd think. But they literally all they sell is tortilla chips and dips. like And maybe a maybe a fettuccine. Wild. Yeah, it is. It's all beige, which is hilarious given that it's like the most diverse area in the world and then all the food is beige. Right. The most colorful animals come from the rainforest, you know, the the cockatoo. Yeah, like I want to parrot a panther steak, you know. 100%.
00:17:39
thinkfresh
But nothing like that. Nothing that even like harkens back to it its like theme. And they're like, even it's the one of the last like strongholds for getting a plastic straw, too. Just hilarious. They're just like, yeah, plastic straws for the whole table. Yeah. I feel like Vegas is like doubling down on the plastic straw. They are. They love it. They love it. They're like, we don't care. We we conquered the desert. we well Who cares about the plastic straws? Yeah. I mean, they have those single use, like one liter daiquiri bottles. Like those things are not coming in the carry on, you know? Yeah, 100%. They're most likely getting tossed into the sewers. Yeah, they're, they're plugging the drains. Yeah. They have a special crew in Vegas just to clear all of the like fat Tuesday cups and the reinforced cafe novelty take home cups.
Food Experiences in Vegas
00:18:25
thinkfresh
yeah i've seen those guys and they're they called the mole people of course i you've heard of the vegas mole people no you don't know about the mole i know what the mole people from the incredibles the vegas mole people this is like the scariest thing that i learned about while on my trip like There's a whole community of homeless people that live in the sewers in Vegas. They live under the city. Actually? Holy shit. There's thousands of them. Wow. and like If you walk into the sewers, like you'll probably die immediately. Yeah, you're on their turf. Yeah, they're out you're on their turf. You're in their living room. Yeah. It makes sense because it's too hot on the surface for them. They have to go underground. Yeah.
00:19:03
thinkfresh
I think the city also turns a blind eye to what's going on below the city. It's almost like they don't have jurisdiction below like surface level. right Just kind of like metaphorical in a way. It makes sense. They're doing their part to keep these people off the streets. Yeah, exactly. They're off the streets. They're below them. I did see remarkably few homeless people in this city. yeah And they're like, where are they all? Oh, they're beneath me.
00:19:27
thinkfresh
Literally. Literally, yeah. Physically and societally. Wow. ah Weird. I just thought they were all at Treasure Island. I mean, yeah, they're all kind of on the outskirts. With the Uggos. Exactly, yeah. But, um yeah, it's pretty crazy. Like, I feel like if you stay out late enough, maybe around sunrise, you'll see them kind of scurrying around on the surface.
00:19:50
thinkfresh
It's kind of like the show Fallout if I think about it, except it's inverted. like The high society is not in the bunkers, the low society is. Very interesting. It is. There's ah literal layers to the class system in the city. Yeah, yeah really like sediment. Yeah, even like if you're in the penthouse, you are 1% baby. Oh yeah, dude.
00:20:09
thinkfresh
um One of my friends at Rainforest Cafe is like, I don't want any of this bland brown food. Maybe they can make me like a tropical fruit plate or something, right? So he tries to in he tries to order a fruit plate and the server's like, ah wellll we'll make it work.
00:20:26
thinkfresh
And then ah like half an hour later, she comes back with a small plate with a single chopped up banana on it. Peel still on. So it's like one inch chunks of peeled, unpeeled banana. No fucking way. Yeah. And my friend just like.
00:20:46
thinkfresh
the laughs at this thing. He's like, please send, he just sends it back. He's like, I don't even want to eat this. Wow. Dude, the chef that day was choosing violence for sure. For sure. They probably looked at this and they're like, what would a child want? This is purely a, surely a child ordered this. A single banana. Wow. Yeah. that is kind of just disturbing to even kind of try to picture like or picture him eat it because he'll have to pick up like a slice of banana and like individually peel it like it's a little candy. Yeah, it's kind of like a little Withers original wrap.
00:21:20
thinkfresh
how so But looking back, it was the most tropical thing that was served that night at that restaurant, for sure. Interesting. We had to abandon the entire meal. when No one could finish their food. It was gross. It was bland. um It was tortilla chips. and this In this situation, did you pay? Yes. yeah it's like It was one of those things. yeah Do you pay? Do you pay at this point? like I think if everyone eats less than half of their meal,
00:21:47
thinkfresh
I think it should just be right off. Yeah, I kind of agree. I think we should have just dipped out during one of the thunderstorms. but you dude The lightning is the cover for you to just dip out, yeah. We attempted to recover the meal by going for dinner number two at Momofuku o across the street, um which um almost almost made up for it. um A friend of mine ordered the $100 white truffle ramen. Wow. That is a risk. Dude. Yeah. really We like talked it over. Like someone's got to get it. It's not going to be me. Holy shit. I mean, me and you would do something like this. Um, but obviously we would write it off on the think fresh expense account. Yeah, that's true. Um, but also we would only do this at a good restaurant, like a place that is like guaranteed to hit like quesotanto. Exactly. The truffle omelet comes to mind.
00:22:40
thinkfresh
Yeah. And that's what I thought too. I thought like Momofuku isn't quite the grade of quality to be messing with this much white truffle. And I was right. When that thing showed up, it was so rich, so over-tropped that like no one at the table could even finish the the the broth. It tastes like I was drinking liquid kachoe pepe.
00:23:01
thinkfresh
Wow. So you're really trough diving. Yeah, dude, trough diving for sure. That's awesome. um ah Yeah, and the rest of the food was kind of disappointing too, but that was the highlight but that was the excessive. Dude, it was like a little mountain of white truffle on that thing. Oh, wow. So I guess like,
00:23:18
thinkfresh
you know quantity wise, you might be getting close to the value there. So maybe it's not a total loss. Like you could just probably just pocket the truffle. I think that would have been a smarter move to scoop it into a Tupperware and then sprinkle it on all the other meals throughout the weekend. Yeah, exactly. Spread it out. Dude, bring the, bring just a bucket of truffle to the spaghetti factory. Wow. ah You could really turn a meal around there with that. We should start packing pocket truffle everywhere.
00:23:45
thinkfresh
Yeah. I mean, you can get like tiny bottles of like oil. Yeah. Like truffle oil, just a little dab on that or some salt even. It's the new CBD, man. And eventually getting stopped and frisked though, and you're just like carrying a few ounces of truffle. Yeah. TSA throws away your truffle. Yeah. It's like cost more per ounce than Coke. Yeah, dude. Geez.
00:24:09
thinkfresh
So those are pretty wild. The best thing I ate the entire weekend was at a restaurant called Helio, which is by one of the Jose Andres kind of groups. He's like the Spanish Gordon Ramsay. He has two Michelin stars and $50 million in probably a hundred restaurants around the world.
00:24:32
thinkfresh
Um, wow. Yeah. Accomplished dude. But this was, yeah. Alejo was like a tell like, I guess like a paella restaurant in the cosmopolitan. And okay I went in there because I was recommended to check out a very specific appetizer that they had. And it was called liquid olives.
00:24:54
thinkfresh
So what but do you think that that is? like Okay, it just says liquid olives. Liquid olives. $14 or something, right? Literally, yeah. Liquid olives. Hmm.
00:25:07
thinkfresh
Okay, I'm gonna guess that this is a spreadable tapenade that you get on a little crostini liquid olive. It's not a bad guess. It's actually a single olive served in a single spoon. They like put it in a spoon, they bring you the spoon, like here comes the airplane. But it's not a real olive. It is the texture and roughly the size of like a poached egg yolk. And it's green.
00:25:32
thinkfresh
and When you put in your mouth, it's the most intense olive, like almost like olive oil flavor more so than all of olive olive. It's hard to describe. It's like the essence of an olive. It's everything you'd expect an olive to be, but even more so. and Then it just kind of pops like a bubble. like You pop the poached egg and the olive flavor just kind of saturates the entire mouth.
00:25:57
thinkfresh
It's one of the most incredible things I've ever eaten. So you're telling me you let Jose bust an olive in your mouth? but Yeah, dude. Jose's busting that ball. oh It was so good that I like ordered another round. I like bring me another spoon. And I had another. It was wow. So special. So it was good. It was good, dude. So I highly recommend that.
00:26:18
thinkfresh
Anything that comes on a spoon is usually pretty good. It's like, you know, the piece de resistance. if yeah Yeah, for sure. um But see this is Vegas. The highs are high, the lows are low. I immediately left this restaurant, crossed the streets of Flamingo, go in the bathroom and the guy next to me, the stalls jerking off into it. And that's Vegas. Yeah, that is Vegas for you. Quite literally. Wow. That's exciting, man. I would love to see a menu get that creative.
00:26:47
thinkfresh
oh Like a liquid olive would a tapenade would just be a great spread of the way Yeah, yeah would be I would even take like a bad tapenade would be good in a sandwich Yeah, you have to be good. That's true. Holy this guy. Oh cool Um, if you get anything at subway that pops into your mouth, I don't think that's a good thing. Like there's no way that's intentional. Yeah, dude, if you like bitten into the meatball and there's like an explosive wet sensation, I would immediately like spit it all out. Yeah. but You know, examine what I, what just happened. Yeah. you're not It's a meat balloon at that point.
00:27:28
thinkfresh
This is the first time, Ty, that we've sat outside Subway watching someone eat in the subway.
Reflections and Future Ideas
00:27:33
thinkfresh
Yeah, there's a guy at our table right now by the window. Yeah, this is our table. Get the fuck out of here. Get the hell out of our table. It's kind of a weird day at Subway. Notably, no police officers have come or entered. There's people dining inside normal people. Maybe nature's healing right now. This is a return to form, Ty. It's kind of what it feels like.
