Mickey CoachellaHOST
You know where Brendan's Pub is right there at Hamilton Avenue, Hartford Road? It's called the 50s Diner or Like the 50s Diner.
Mickey CoachellaHOST
I want to go there now, though.
Mickey CoachellaHOST
it's really really cool really cool love it yeah anyway uh but I was talking to him about stuff that we do the podcast and he was like uh you thought you were bananas well no because I explained like we just present things and then we ask people what they think and we learn yeah and he said Can't wait to watch it.
Michael MartineHOST
Mm-hmm.
Michael RoweHOST
And then the American Diner, I was talking to somebody last week when I was out in San Francisco, which has Mel's Diners all over the place.
Michael MartineHOST
Yes.
Michael RoweHOST
Um, uh, which is, if you were a fan of Happy Days, you'll know Mel's Diner, even though it's not the same thing.
Jack CogginsGUEST
And, um, I grew up a lot in Soho because he used to be, like, editing on, like, Marshall Street and stuff.
Jack CogginsGUEST
One of the things that was sort of like always a Soho hotspot was Ed's Diner.
Jack CogginsGUEST
I don't know if anyone remembers Ed's Diner.
Ben BentonHOST
I do.
Freddy ClodeHOST
Yeah, yeah.
Kirk MinihaneHOST
But if you look at Bacon's filmography, it's actually kind of funny.
Kirk MinihaneHOST
Like probably the movies he's best known for, I would say... are Animal House, Diner, Friday the 13th, and Footloose, are probably the best some movies he's ever been in, maybe A Few Good Men as well.
Kirk MinihaneHOST
And those movies, those first four, Animal House, Diner, Friday the 13th, and Footloose, are all done in 84.
Kirk MinihaneHOST
He's now, you know, that's 42 years ago, Footloose was, which is mind-blowing to me.
Kirk MinihaneHOST
But he's always been one of my favorite actors, one of my favorite, sort of, he's become a character actor.
6 MINS LATER
Kirk MinihaneHOST
It's embarrassing.
Kirk MinihaneHOST
It's one of these stupid shows I always talk about, but I'm enjoying it.
Kirk MinihaneHOST
Anyway, he then in 1982, to me, gives one of the great, like literally one of the great performances, supporting performances of like the last 50 years as Fenwick in Diner.
Travis KelceHOST
It looks exactly like it
Jason KelceHOST
Diners are, are unique.
Jason KelceHOST
Like, you're at Marty's Diner.
Jason KelceHOST
Let's have that as a fan vote.
Tommy LugauerHOST
Whether it's Jersey, whether it's New York City, whether it's Long Island.
Tommy LugauerHOST
Diners are now closing at... 10 o'clock at night? What the heck is that all about? So you're telling me if I go get a couple of drinks with some friends and we Uber over to the diner, it's closed? I can't get my disco fries? I can't get a burger? Double cheeseburger with bacon? You're telling me I can't dip fries in gravy? You're telling me I can't get breakfast at 3 in the morning? That's a travesty.
Tommy LugauerHOST
And that's got to change.
Tommy LugauerHOST
So I'm going to open up my own diner.
Jason HarrisHOST
It-
Josh BellHOST
Vicky's Diner still open?
Jason HarrisHOST
And if it, if Vicky's is open, it's moved, I think so.
Josh BellHOST
Oh, okay.
