It reminds me of... I don't want to... This is the only way I can shit on this, because I think he's great. When you look at The Rock's Instagram, I have to say this publicly, because I respect this person so much. His cheat day meals really bother me. They're insane. They're insane, but they're not indulgent. I'm sorry, it'll be like... What is it, like giant pancakes and cookies? They don't look like regular pancakes. They don't? It's never like buttermilk whipped cream. It's like protein, coconut, pineapple with flavonoid, peanut butter, and then teremona tequila. It's never like the full indulgence. And turkey bacon. That's an indulgence. He has turkey bacon? Lots of it. I'm just like let loose. Like where's that block of cheese and like an IV of chili? Well, he'll have like a giant tray of sushi. But it's garbage. Dwayne, you have millions of dollars. Like it's Costco sushi. Really? It just doesn't look... It's like a rainbow roll and like you can afford the best sushi. That's what he likes? No. No? He doesn't like it? It's something's up there. You think? I just... I want as a wish fulfillment when I look at that I want to see full indulgence. Not like protein powered, plant based, peanut butter. I don't think that's what he does. Go to the Instagram. I'm waiting with this most recent one. It's in a video so he's getting to, he's talking. What's he got there? He does have turkey bacon. Is this fun for you? Turkey bacon is bullshit. Here's a whole family of chickens. Oh, wheat free corn muffin. That's a cheapie. That's what I'm saying. What is that? This is no fun. Yeah, turkey bacon is definitely not fun. I don't understand it. But you know, I mean that's a guy that literally makes his living off of being lean. I hear that. But I'm saying if you go to the top, I know this one recently because this is something that I bond with my old assistant over is looking at his cheat meals. I think it's all the way at the top or you know, I don't know where it is now. It's these pancakes that just don't look right. Twain The Rock Johnson, I'm calling you out. They got like peanut butter and it's like coconut. Coconut to me is one of those like sugar substitute kind of things. That's all we got here. Look at this. That looks good. Coconut banana pancakes, by the way, with peanut butter blessed with maple syrup. That's fucking pretty indulgent. I don't know something about it because the peanut butter you could be like, that's my protein. Something about it. I don't know. He likes peanut butter. Maybe you need to let it go. You trying to gaslight me? What is your... I'm trying to food shame this man. You trying to gaslight me? I don't think it's food shame. It doesn't make any sense to me. I'm just trying to like, I'm trying to see your perspective, but it doesn't... I'm not seeing the full caloric blast. I'm seeing, I'm just, I'm wanting to see... That looks pretty fucking caloric. A full back of bacon. I'm wanting to see heavy whipped cream. Look at all that maple syrup. Fruit compote. You don't know, you don't see that bottle. You don't know what that is. That could be Elmer's glue and he doesn't even know that. You think it's like some sugar free maple syrup? Is that what you're thinking? Or keto pancakes, sugar free agave tinted nectar, and creatine powder mixed in with nuts. I don't think so. Looks like regular pancakes. No way. Too chunky. Something's going on. Yeah. Something's going on, Joe. I don't know. Looks normal to me. Okay. I'm a pancake guy. Well, thanks for having me. I like it. Well, there you go. In-N-Out burgers, fries, double doubles with tequila. That's a different meal. That looks good. Yeah. It's a different meal. That's solid, right? Yeah.
