Carrows with Erin Whitehead

"Carrows with Erin Whitehead" is Episode 11 of *Doughboys*, hosted by Mike Mitchell and Nick Wiger. "Carrows with Erin Whitehead" was released on July 23, 2015.

## Synopsis

Actress and writer Erin Whitehead joins the Doughboys for the wake of disappearing southwest diner chain Carrows.

## Nick's intro

In 1970, David G. Nancarrow opened his hickory-chip restaurant in the northern California city of Santa Clara, giving it his last name minus the first syllable. One location grew into many, and for decades, the diner-style chain flourished in the western United States, becoming known for its breakfast, prime rib, and pies. In fact, in the 1990s, the magazine *Consumer Reports* rated it as the Best Chain Restaurant In America.

   But much like the publication that once praised it, the company failed to evolve with the times and its market position gradually eroded into irrelevance.

As recently as 2013, it still maintained 55 eateries across the American Southwest, but after Food Management Partners, the giant conglomerate that owns Buffalo Wild Wings and Little Caesar's, bought the chain in early 2015, corporate overlords rapidly shuttered most of the remaining restaurants. As of now, it's down to a mere sixteen locations, all in California.

With this once-proud chain on its last legs, the question becomes "Can it survive?"

And to be frank, does it even deserve to?

This week on *Doughboys*, we mourn and celebrate... Carrows.

## Drank or Stank

In Drank or Stank, the Doughboys try a beverage and rate it either 'Drank' or 'Stank.'

They all agree that it is terrible.

Carl’s Jr./Hardee’s with Ben Axelrad

"Carl’s Jr./Hardee’s with Ben Axelrad" is Episode 9 of *Doughboys*, hosted by Mike Mitchell and Nick Wiger. "Carl’s Jr./Hardee’s with Ben Axelrad" was released on July 9, 2015.

*This episode is notable for the fact that it contains the creation of the Golden Plate Club and the Platinum Plate Club.*

## Synopsis

Doughboys break down dual identity burger chain Carl’s Jr./Hardee’s with the help of writer and comedian Ben Axelrad.

## Nick's intro

In the US, the Mason-Dixon line divides the country into the once-warring regions of North and South. But though certainly the most culturally significant, it is not the only demarcating border in the loose federation of independent states that is America.

In 1941, Carl and Margaret Karcher opened a hot-dog cart in Anaheim, California. Their success led to a restaurant, Carl's Drive-In Barbecue, that was followed by a smaller version named Carl's Jr.

Meanwhile, in 1960 in Greenville, North Carolina, Wilbur Hardee opened a burger joint of his own, though he gave it his last name instead of his first.

These two restaurants grew independently in their respective regions (West and East of the Mississippi), before finally merging in 1997 to become the sixth-largest chain in America. Though they now share a menu, marketing, and corporate leadership, both brands continue to exist with Carl Karcher's legacy occupying one side of the country and Wilbur Hardee's the other.

This week on *Doughboys:* Carl's Jr. and Hardee's.

## Fork rating

* Onion Rings
* CrissCut Fries
* Vanilla Hand-Scooped Ice Cream Shake
* Most American Thickburger [Natalie's order]

The Doughboys also talk a bit about burgers at Carl's that they love, but didn't order for this visit: Bacon Western Cheeseburger (Nick's favorite), Philly Cheesesteak Burger (Mitch's), and Guacamole Bacon Burger (Ben's).

They also share some brief thoughts of Green Burrito (which is often co-branded with Carl's Jr.).

With these scores, Carl's Jr. is inducted into the Golden Plate Club!

## Flavor of the Week

Flavor of the Week is a segment where the Doughboys rank the different flavors of a snack item.

In this episode, the flavors being ranked are four varieties of Golden Oreo.

In general, they were indifferent to the Lemon, but all liked the other three very much.

Charleys Philly Steaks vs. Firehouse Subs with Alison Rosen

"Charleys Philly Steaks vs. Firehouse Subs with Alison Rosen" is an episode of the premium-content podcast, *Doughboys Double*, hosted by Nick Wiger and Mike Mitchell. "Charleys Philly Steaks vs. Firehouse Subs with Alison Rosen" was released on March 1, 2022.

## Synopsis

Alison Rosen (*Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend*, *Childish*) joins the 'boys to set up the rules for this year's Munch Madness and kick off the **Tournament of Chompions: Hero's Journey: Sub-Optimal**!

## Hero's Journey: Sub-Optimal Rules

    Here are the rules for this Tournament of Chompions:

1. Sandwiches only! Sides stay on the sidelines, drinks are in the stink, chips get the slip, cookies are ookie, and soup's OFF.
2. We are in a pickle: Pickles are eligible!
3. If it's national, it's rational: Chains have to have locations across the US. This also excludes local LA chains.
4. I like Ike: due to personal conflicts, Ike's has been removed from the tournament. (The Doughboys are friendly with Ike.)
5. Some heroes are self-made: Customization is encouraged.
6. We run hot and cold: one hot sandwich and one cold sandwich from each eatery.
7. You can request extra napkins.
8. Guests don't have to follow the rules.
9. Mrs. Mitchell can ground Wiger if necessary.

## Hot Cross Buns region 🥪

The first time The Doughboys visited Charleys, Nick gave it 3 forks and Mitch 3.25.

They also previously reviewed Firehouse Subs, with Nick rating it 4.5 forks and Mitch 3.75.

## Hero's Journey: Sub-Optimal scoring

For this tournament, the Doughboys rate their orders on 0-10 Endorsement Dollars in a number of categories.

## Hot Cross Buns Region Winner

Next, The Doughboys decide which sandwich gets sent to Joe Rogan (a hoagy to Rogy) and are so good, they change his mind about vaccines (or to make him stand strong as an anti-vaxxer).

 Mike Mitchell
 Alison Rosen

Thus, Firehouse Subs advances to the next round of **Hero's Journey: Sub-Optimal**!

Further, Charleys is eliminated for good from the Tournament. Mitch uses his Permaban to keep it out for good and is not eligible for Fat Chance Kitchen or anything like that. (Also Susser further clarifies in the next episode that this Permaban, if used, will also keep the chain off of *Doughboys* forever after.)

## Quotes

**Nick**: For this month, I will be The Sandwich Lad.
**Mitch**: I thought you were gonna be The Bunny Boy.
**Nick**: That's pretty good. I'll be Bunny Boy (aka. The Sandwich Lad).
**Alison**: Can I be Mistress Slice?

Chop Stop with Tim Baltz

"Chop Stop with Tim Baltz" is Episode 428 of *Doughboys*, hosted by Nick Wiger and Mike Mitchell. "Chop Stop with Tim Baltz" was released on January 11, 2024.

## Synopsis

Tim Baltz (@tim.baltz, *Shrink*) joins the 'boys to talk comedy colleagues, basketball, and salads before a review of Chop Stop.

## Nick's intro

“*Live from the NBC Studios in Burbank, California: The Tonight Show, with Jay Leno.*”

On May 25th, 1992, 16 million viewers heard this introduction as ample-chinned comic James Douglas Muir Leno made his debut behind the desk of America’s most storied talk-show institution. It followed a tumultuous jockeying for the job with then-*Late Night* host David Letterman — a process that would be replicated nearly twenty years later over the same slot with Conan O’Brien.

Burbank has always lived in the shadow of its much larger, glitzier neighbor, Los Angeles (a shadow that’s somehow even hotter). The city was often even invoked as a punchline under the previous *Tonight Show* host, Johnny Carson. But Leno’s 22-year on-and-off stewardship of the franchise would help revitalize the image of the sprawling San Fernando Valley city.

In addition to his nightly sign-on, Leno chose Burbank to house his massive personal garage for his collection of nearly 300 classic cars and motorcycles. The Burbank automotive assemblage inspired a TV series of its own, the Emmy-winning *Jay Leno’s Garage*, which ran for seven seasons. Leno has a designated booth at the original Bob’s Big Boy in Burbank, where he regularly appears at their Friday night classic-car show, and the silver-haired denim enthusiast frequently performs at Burbank comedy club, Flappers.

And it’s Burbank where, in 2011, Mark Kulkis launched a chain to fill what he felt was an unexplored niche: chopped salads. The cold-dish concept had a hot start in the veggie-friendly southland, and by 2016, it began franchising. But in a crowded market for bowls of greens, there are worrying signs for this salad seller. Already a location in the heart of health-conscious West Hollywood has shuttered, and the number of operating restaurants is down from its high of 30 to just 21 in California and Nevada.

So will this chain have the reach and staying power of Leno’s *Tonight Show* run? Or in the shadow of more prominent competitors like sweetgreen and Chopt, will this Burbank-founded eatery become the Burbank of salad chains?

This week on *Doughboys*, live from the Headgum Studios in Los Angeles, California: Chop Stop.

Domino's 3 Loaded Tots with Emily Gonzalez and Henley Cox

"Domino's 3 Loaded Tots with Emily Gonzalez and Henley Cox" is Episode 399 of *Doughboys*, hosted by Nick Wiger and Mike Mitchell. "Domino's 3 Loaded Tots with Emily Gonzalez and Henley Cox" was released on May 25, 2023.

## Synopsis

Emily Gonzalez and Henley Cox (*Too Scary; Didn't Watch*) join the 'boys to talk trains, scary movies, and ghosts before a review of Domino's Loaded Tots. Plus, another edition of Meal in the Flank.

## Nick's intro

[Nick, as a member of the Writers Guild of America, will not be writing intros for the episodes as long as the concurrent WGA strike continues. (Podcasts are not under the WGA purview, but Nick is expressing solidarity.) For more information, go to this website.] Instead, he shares a little nugget of info, his 'neat-o stat of the week.'

* If the WGA received everything they were asking for in the strike, it would cost the studios less than 2% of their profits.

We've got a fun episode for you this week, as we return to Domino's.

## Fork rating

Domino's has been a long-time part of the show. First, way back in episode 10, Nick gave it 3 forks and Mitch 4. Then in 2020, they returned and flipped scores, when Nick gave it 4 forks and Mitch 3.5. In between, it was part of the Pizza Event at the 2016 Doughlympics (got a silver medal), and won the Tournament of Chompions: Munch Madness: The Slice Is Right event in March, 2018. They also tested the PizzaTracker in this episode and talked with Joe, who worked at the first Domino's, in this episode.

Today, the focus is on the Loaded Tots, but since everyone has good experience with Domino's, they also offer a fork score for the chain as a whole.

* Cheddar Bacon Loaded Tots
* Melty 3-Cheese Loaded Tots
 Mike Mitchell
 Emily Gonzalez
 Henley Cox

Nobody enjoyed the Loaded Tots (they make the Broken Plate Club), and despite talking about all the ways Domino's needs to improve or focus, Domino's still makes it into the hallowed halls of the Platinum Plate Club.

## Meal in the Flank

In this segment, Nick gives a famous food-related movie quote and Mitch and the guests guess which word is missing.

Mitch is the winner!

Fat Chance Kitchen: Chipotle vs. Green Burrito

"Fat Chance Kitchen: Chipotle vs. Green Burrito" is an episode of the premium-content podcast, *Doughboys Double*, hosted by Mike Mitchell and Nick Wiger. "Fat Chance Kitchen: Chipotle vs. Green Burrito" was released on March 12, 2019.

## Synopsis

In order to stay alive in the **Tournament of Chompions**, Chipotle goes head-to-head with Green Burrito this week as we're joined by Ryan Perez (*The Break with Michelle Wolf*, *Funny or Die*) to determine who advances.

## Fat Chance Kitchen intro

Each week the defeated combatants of the **Tournament of Chompions** compete to stay alive! The loser goes home for good! The winner continues for a chance to re-enter the main competition. This is **Fat Chance Kitchen**.

## Mouth of the Border: Fat Chance Kitchen - Round One

**Tournament of Chompions: Mouth of the Border: Fat Chance Kitchen** rules: the main tournament competition is between tacos/burritos only. But in Fat Chance Kitchen, it is "everything but" those.

As losers of the Tournament, both of these restaurants have been fed by Dennis Leary, aka. The Ref, to Bruce, the shark from *Jaws*. Competing in **Fat Chance Kitchen** means one of these two will finally be swallowed by Bruce, and the winner is spit out to survive another day.

* 3 Piece Chicken Taquitos
 Ryan Perez
* 3 Piece Chicken Taquitos
* Super Nachos - Beef

Nick ordered the Chipotle for the group, angering Mitch. Both places have a fairly limited number items that are not burritos nor tacos though.

So Green Burrito loses and has been swallowed by Bruce, giving him the shark shits, and is thereby eliminated from the tournament.

Chipotle wins and advances to face the next **Fat Chance Kitchen** winner.

## Quotes

**Nick:** Yea. I mean also too, that would involve you being a man who walks.

**Nick:** I don't think I'm the Mozart of Bowls.
**Mitch:** You think you're the Mozart of Bowls.
**Ryan:** That would make you the Salieri.

7/11 Challenge with Alana Johnston

"7/11 Challenge with Alana Johnston 🔪" is an episode of the premium-content podcast, *Doughboys Double*, hosted by Nick Wiger and Mike Mitchell. "7/11 Challenge with Alana Johnston 🔪" was released on July 12, 2022.

## Synopsis

Alana Johnston 🔪 (*Self Esteem Party*) joins the 'boys to discuss Mitch's encounter with a gator and their stressful 7-Eleven experiences before embarking on the 7/11 Challenge, where they see who can get the most items at 7-Eleven or under $7.11.

## 2022 7/11 Challenge 🏪

The 7/11 Challenge is when, on July 11, the Doughboys each have a budget of $7.11 and go spend it at 7-Eleven. This will surely become an annual celebration. (*It does not*. -ed.)

The other rule is a ban on asking for prices, so they have to just try their best to get as many as items as possible.

Susser was not on the show, but he texted his purchase to Mitch.

Nick used the 7-Eleven app to get some deals, and also tossed in some last-second additions, and Mitch and Alana 🔪 seem to think this was against the spirit of the game. Nick is still declared the winner of the 2022 7/11 Challenge.

## Quotes

**Mitch**: Happy 7/11 to you, Wiges. What a day.
**Nick**: May we never forget the events of 7/11.

**Alana**: I've traveled with both of you and the answer is 'none'. None of you are fun or having fun.

Checkout Aisle Bounty with Lauren McGuire

"Checkout Aisle Bounty with Lauren McGuire" is an episode of the premium-content podcast, *Doughboys Double*, hosted by Mike Mitchell and Nick Wiger. "Checkout Aisle Bounty with Lauren McGuire" was released on July 21, 2020.

## Synopsis

Writer Lauren McGuire (*Bless The Harts*, *Wrecked*, *Comedy Bang Bang*) joins the 'boys to talk Florida eats and theme parks and build a Snacknificent Seven of checkout items.

## Snacknificent Seven 🛒

Mitch's idea for this episode was for them to go to any grocery store they choose and buy any seven items from the checkout aisle. There were no other restrictions.

Lauren went to a Super King Market. Mitch shopped at an Albertson's. Nick visited Ralph's (a Kroger market).

Mitch opted for all basic, classic items (he also got Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and Energizer AAA batteries, but did not include those in his competitive cart).

Use #SnacknificentSeven to declare the winner.

## Quotes

**Mitch**: They drive me nuts too! I get fucking mistaken for them all the time.

**Mitch**: You know Daisy is a Monica.
**Nick**: Oh man! Daisy is a total Monica. That would make Minnie into Rachel; that's the whole romantic tension in *Friends*. Phoebe, I don't even know.
**Mitch**: Phoebe is Brer Rabbit, the one who should be eliminated from Splash Mountain.

Alien³

"Maynk: Alien³" is an episode of the premium-content podcast, *Doughboys Double*, hosted by Nick Wiger and Mike Mitchell. "Maynk: Alien³" was released on May 2, 2023.

## Synopsis

The 'boys kick off **Maynk**, our monthlong David Fincher miniseries, with a review of *Alien³*.

## The Maynk Theme Song

The Game or Zodiac or Benji Buttons
I'm only happy when it's Maynk
The Social Network or the Panic Room
Se7en, Girl with The Dragon Tattoo
Fight Club, Alien 3, and Mank

Pour your Finchery down
Pour your Finchery down on me*

## Dinner is the Movie: Maynk

In this recurring segment, and sometimes full episodes or even theme months, the Doughboys take a deep dive into one specific film. After a few months of declaring love for Da Finchman, for **Maynk 2023**, they devote the Doubles to different films directed by David Fincher.

Up first, was Fincher's debut 1992 film, *Alien³.*

During Maynk, they rate the movie on a scale of 0-10 inches of Affleck Hog.

Both like the movie a lot, recognizing some of its flaws, but finding it pretty deep, interesting, and well-made.

## Asgore Makes an Among Us AU

### Status

Hiatus

**Asgore Makes an Among Us AU** is a crackfic taken seriously, where Asgore, as the title suggests, makes an Among Us AU. While it is popular among most monsters, most of which are obsessed by the game to the point Among Us slang has become part of their regular speech, somehow things end up going horribly wrong from there. As Undyne turns out to be the one person to not like it and destroys Asgore's computer, the king falls into a state of depression over the loss of his device. After hearing about this, Flowey decides to try to make use of the chaotic stuation, making things even worse than they already are in his aim to get the human souls.

And amidst all this, Frisk, despising Among Us, falls down obviously very frustrated by the fact the game haunts them even down here, and this leads to them getting involved in am ambiguously canon sideplot where their angry ramblings towards a seemingly inanimate object turns out to get a ghost to fall in love with them.

Confection Selection Tuesday with Evan Susser

Evan Susser (*Fist Fight*, *Brooklyn Nine-Nine*) joins the 'boys to set up the rules for this year's Munch Madness and kick off the **Tournament of Chompions: Pie Noon**!

## Tournament of Chompions: Pie Noon Rules 📜

This year's **Tournament of Chompions: Pie Noon** is focused on desserts and sweets.

The rules for Pie Noon:

1. Just desserts! - meals may not appeal (if you're an entree or main, you cannot join the game)
2. No sweet drinks; it has to be more like a shake to be included - If your drink is not slushy, Wiger will get fussy (the juice is not loose).
3. Donuts 'do nut' count - no breakfast pastries or sweets!
4. If it's in a mall, you can't play ball! - restaurants like Cinnabon or Auntie Anne's aren't seen as desserts, and they also do not want to go into a mall during the pandemic.

## Pie Noon Bracket 🥧🤠

Dialects with Allan McLeod

## Synopsis

Allan McLeod aka Molasses Boy (*Who Invited Them*, *You're The Worst*, *Drunk History*) joins the 'boys to discuss Prince Harry, the Molasses ban, and self-taping before talking dialects in another edition of the **Doughscord Doughcision**: a new monthly double pitched by listeners on the Doughboys Discord.

## What's your Doughelect?

Today's episode was pitched by Stinky on the Doughscord: The Doughboys answer questions from the Harvard Dialect Survey, which is a research project that maps variations in dialect around the United States, and a similar Dialect Quiz from the *New York Times*.

Nick is from the West (SoCal), Mitch from the Northeast (Boston), and Allan from the South (Alabama).

 cauliflower: caul-e-flower or caul-if-flower
 mayonnaise: two or three syllables?
 pecan: PEE-can, pee-CAN, PEE-kahn, pee-KAHN, pick-Ann, pick-Ahn
 almond: all, ah, aw

If they have to choose one of these items to keep forever, Allan will choose caramel. Mitch might go mayonnaise and Nick wants the pecans.

## Molasses Ban / Waffle House rating

Before getting into the topic, McLeod brings up his controversial ban from *The Doughboys* which dates back to around May 2019.

For background, check out this episode. Mitch offers McLeod the chance to amend his Waffle House fork score (i.e., give it five forks) and he gives it three forks anyway, possibly removing Waffle House from the Platinum Plate Club (and Golden Plate Club).
