and send it through the. desert to get here to Larchmont that's. fantastic hey over the weekend this tube. showed up or maybe it was last weekend. thanks EB let's crack it. open an an armadillo comes out with soy. sauce all over his. mouth I mean that's Insanity I wuzu you. sound like an amazing place but please. don't send us any food even though I'm. sure it's amazing we want to come in. person and then Beed uh are you do you.
find yourself getting comped much in. life that's the first time I was really. excited about it cuz I always said you. know people were like oh you know more. and more people know who you are because. the podcast is so big and I'm like. you're not really famous until you get. either a meal compt or you get same day. reservations at a cool restaurant and I. got comped so I'm officially whoa. congratulations good I have to say I'm. sitting here with a real celebrity. finally. I constantly test how we're doing by uh.
choosing very very popular hard to get. into restaurants and what I do is I show. up on a Saturday night at like 7:30 and. I just walk in and said Con O'Brien here. and I'm demand a table for 15 and um. I've always been told get the out. of. here but one day even when you have a. reservation show up and they say get the. out of here even I have a.
reservation that I've had for months and. I show up and I go by the way it's that. con O'Brien they say get the out of. here and my family and friends all wave. to me from the table as I'm escorted out. oh they're all seated and they still. bill you they still Bill me but um no. yeah that's the way to test yeah and. I've not I'll know the day I can walk in. and go yeah table for 15 colel Bryan. from conel Bryan needs a friend deal. with it then I'm going to know that I've. been if I'm seated right away that we. finally cracked it I don't think what's. ever going to happen I don't know what.
to say cuz I've made a lot of same day. reservations for you and it it's always. people love to accommodate you why would. you would why would you you say didn't. fun they they wouldn't take oh that was. my favorite yeah you remember we went to. the one the original one in our Cadia. and you're like watch this basically. like I didn't do I never say well okay I. think I did I said we were in Arcadia. yes to the original diai fun dun dinai. fun and I we were really hungry and I. thought well it all kidding aside I.
people are quite nice to me and they. they tend to recognize this puss so. I and it's it's I'm sorry before it's. notorious for having a very long wait. especially that original regardless of. the puss yes yeah yeah yeah and so I hey. uh God bless them they uh they said uh. as nicely as possible go. away um come back in an hour but I. remember it wasn't that long I actually. remember it wasn't that long it wasn't.
and you know what that you you gave your. name they didn't give you uh any sort of. leeway on the weight time I remember it. made no difference that it was you but. then you went outside and we were. waiting in the parking lot and people. kept coming up to you to take pictures. with and my favorite part is some of. them were from the restaurant my. favorite is when people from the. restaurant are like can we have a. picture uh yeah sure thanks I'm a big. fan um how long I wait do you you. [Laughter].
oh man okay good times Hey listen I. don't think celebrities should be. treated especially I think we should be. treated worse than other people I agree. well I'm not I'm not a celebrity so I'm. fine if I ever come to your restaurant. you are free to comp me I can't wait. till I have a restaurant that. specializes in Irish food from. 1902 you want a t with your t.
