Bill and Tim debate how much money you'd need to eat truly healthy, organic food nowadays, and reminisce about fast food chains like Wendy's and McDonald's from their childhoods.
- Tim compares the genius of innovators like Jimi Hendrix and Eddie Van Halen to showing people what's physically possible.
- Food companies turned everything into poison, but eating well now requires enough money to reverse the damage.
- Tim asks how much annual income you'd need to eat the way a 1920s hobo did when everything was organic.
- $200,000 a year after taxes in this state is what it takes to eat wild salmon and organic everything.
- Food is expensive and spoils immediately—organic fruits and vegetables go bad really quick.
- Wendy's used to be the top fast food when Tim was growing up, the only one that looked like it used real meat.
- The square Wendy's burger was their way of saying 'this is different, this is an actual thing.'
- Tim doesn't take his kids out for fast food, but their relatives do—someone's got to be the cool one.
