- Is there such a thing as a pizza
order that's too complicated?
- Let's talk about that.
(funky techno music)
- Good mythical morning.
- Pizza is a universal language.
Baby's love gummin' the stuff,
celebrities love pretendin' to eat it, and
even rats enjoy a slice from time to time.
- Yeah but you know what, there is nothing worse than
ordering up your favorite pizza and waiting for it to be
delivered, but when it finally gets there
they left off the sausage, and for some
reason they added olives and banana peppers
and those floppy flat mushrooms!
- It can be very upsetting.
So today, we're gonna put popular pizza parlors
delivery order accuracy to the test.
It's time for extra special delivery pizza.
To help us with our experiment, we asked for help
from a man who skills we very much admire,
YouTuber, Gus Johnson, but he said no.
So we go this guy, his name is also Gus Johnson.
(people applauding)
- Hey fells thanks for having' me
- Welcome to the show, for the very first time ever.
- Appreciate it, long time watcher, first
time stopper buyer.
- [Rhett and Link] Yeah.
- All right now, its our understanding that
the mythical crew filmed you making some pizza orders.
- That's correct, yeah, I called some major pizza chains
and I placed some really, really complicated orders.
- Really complicated?
- Really, really complicated.
- Okay.
- I'm a man of specificity.
- Okay.
(light happy music)
- All right, so, first place I called was Pizza Hut.
- Love it.
- And now I gotta let you in on a bit, before you watch
this video, there are puppets involved.
- Okay.
- So the good people at Pizza Hut are not puppets
they're people, but we went and we replaced the visuals
with a couple very cute enticing puppets.
- Okay, okay.
- So, just wanted to give you a heads up.
- Okay, I'm--
- Thanks for the warning.
- You betcha.
(phone ringing)
- [Pizza Hut Employee] Hi, this is Pizza Hut.
- Hi, I would like to place an order for delivery please.
- [Pizza Hut Employee] Your name please?
- Name is Gus.
- [Pizza Hut Employee] Okay, what can I do for you?
- So it is my kid's half birthday and the kid just loves
Clifford the big read dog.
You know he's got the ears, he's got the rug,
the bed spread all the stuff.
So I want whole pizza to just be red in color.
- [Pizza Hut Employee] Okay.
- Can we do just all the marinara sauce on the whole pizza
so we're gonna do no cheese on the pizza.
- [Pizza Hut Employee] Okay.
- Is there any way that you can spread that sauce
out so that it gets all over the crust too, just
all the way crust filled up with sauce?
- [Pizza Hut Employee] Mhmm, yes we can.
- Okay thank you.
Thank you so much sir and can we get
red onions, not the white ones?
- [Pizza Hut Employee] 'Kay.
- Pepperoni and can we please get some ham?
And tomatoes, some bacon and is there any way
you can toss some red pepper flakes on top too?
A little extra spice.
- [Pizza Hut Employee] We don't have red pepper right now
in the packages, only in the shaker.
- I would accept an additional charge if you could just
shake a little bit right on top, you know,
we don't really like having the packets, so no problem.
- [Pizza Hut Employee] Okay, no problem.
- Since it's his half birthday and I really want him
to enjoy the day, can we have half of the
pepperonis be cut in half?
- [Pizza Hut Employee] Okay, I can do that for you.
- On the half that doesn't have the halved pepperonis
can we have that side be cut into squares for me,
I don't really like the triangles?
- [Pizza Hut Employee] I can't really do that, how could
I cut half the pizza in triangles and half in squares?
- Oh I understand that'd be tricky, well if there is
a way you can figure out in the mean time,
I appreciate it, but I think that's it for right now.
- [Pizza Hut Employee] Okay, you're all set.
We'll see you in 35 minutes.
- Thank you sir, my kids, gonna be pleased.
- Your fake kid--
- Wow, that guy was so cooperative.
- Oh, and you got the pizza.
- He was so cooperative.
- He was very very friendly, absolutely.
- [Rhett] So were trying to guess which parts
of this order they actually delivered on.
- So you have to select what you think they got correct,
and whoever ends up losing this competition today,
has to pay me back for the extremely high pizza bills.
- [Link] So, okay, first entirely red,
including on the crust. - So, they would mean
all the way to the end, I just--
- It didn't seem like the guy was writing anything down.
He's a professional, he doesn't need to write stuff down.
You go to a restaurant, they don't write stuff down anymore.
Pizza guys are the same, I was a pizza guy, I know.
- So, were you tossing the pizzas or were you delivering?
- I was doing everything, I was tossin', I was bossin',
I was managing stuff.
- Tossin' and bossin'. - Tossin' and bossin'.
- Okay so, if there's any part that's not red then
it's not entirely red, so I'm not checking that.
- [Link] If they tried to get sauce everywhere, then yes,
that's them doing it.
I'm not gonna say they're good at it but.
- Okay well, if that's the case I'm gonna check that too.
- I think they halved the pepperonis.
- Halving pepperonis, is too labor intensive.
They were like, "Screw it."
Pepperoni on the kid's side that was easy,
yeah, they did that.
- He hedged his bets on cutting the squares, so that's
why I don't think he actually pulled it off.
- I think because he asked for clarification,
they did do it and he figured it out.
- All right let's see the pizza and see if we're right.
- We pop it open?
- Yeah. - All right, here we go, boom.
- [Link] Oh, he did the square cuts on one side!
- [Gus] I know!
- It is not entirely red, I should of
stuck with my frickin' answer.
- So we both go a demerit for that one.
- No because I ended up, yeah, yeah guessing it.
(people laughing)
Got a demerit.
- Brought you to the dark side or the red side.
- Now what about the, I see half pepperonis
on the adult side, too.
- But this could be spill over, I think you gotta have
a reasonable margin of error for the spill over
on the half side though.
- [Rhett] We'll give them that.
They did half the pepperoni, they did
do the pepperoni on the kid's side, but they
also did the square cuts, so I did not get that point.
Link, you did get that point.
- [Link] So good for Pizza Hut because they got everything
right except making the crust red.
- Yeah, I'm impressed.
Okay and our complicated orders
also have a complicated scoring system.
It's not that complicated, basically you actually
get a point taken away if you check something
and you were incorrect to discourage just
checking all the boxes to get points.
So by that math we each have one point after round one.
- [Link] All right.
(happy light music)
- Okay, so you called Domino's.
- I did call Domino's and Domino's
is my personal favorite chain.
- Okay, not a sponsor.
- They're very affordable and I got a lot of faith 'em,
so let's take a look at the video.
(phone ringing)
- [Domino's Man] Thank you for calling Domino's,
how can I help you?
- Hi can I place an order for delivery please?
- [Domino's Man] All yeah, what can I get you?
- First of all, is there way you could cut a large hand
tossed pizza into thirds?
- [Domino's Woman] Yeah, okay give me one second.
- Thank you sir.
(Rhett laughing)
- [Domino's Woman] Hi, thank you for holding,
how can I help you?
- Hi yeah I was just looking to place an order for delivery.
I had a bit of a complicated pizza I was wondering
you could help me out with.
- [Domino's Woman] Okay, go for it.
- So I'm actually an English second language teacher
and my students just learned the first three letter
of the alphabet, A, B, C.
So I'm looking to order a large pizza,
that is cut into thirds and not the triangle way,
but just the two lines down the center part of way.
Were each portion of the pizza has ingredients that
start with A, B, and C, respectively.
- [Domino's Woman] So we can't do that we can only
do half and half.
- Is there a possibility of us cutting it ourselves
and it's just topped?
- [Domino's Woman] Yeah, that's fine.
- Okay, we'll cut it ourselves.
So, in the first third of the pizza, for the A category
I would like Alfredo sauce on the third, Asiago cheese,
and then have you got any anchovies?
- [Domino's Woman] Yeah, we have anchovies, too.
- I'll do some anchovies, yeah.
And do you have any aged mozzarella at all?
- [Domino's Woman] No we only have American cheese.
- American Cheese would be fantastic,
let's hop onto the Bs now.
- [Domino's Woman] Okay.
- Let's go ahead and toss some barbecue sauce on there,
a little bit of bacon, some beef,
banana peppers, black olives.
And then do you have baby spinach?
- [Domino's Woman] Just fresh spinach, but that's with
an S if that's okay.
- If they're small enough I could probably kinda
tell a little white lie to the kids and tell them
it's baby spinach, so that should be fine.
- [Domino's Woman] We also have buffalo sauce.
- Yes that would be great, let's throw some
buffalo on that middle part.
- [Rhett] Yeah, she's playing along!
- Great and now for our final lesson today,
let's go to C.
Sorry, final third of the pizza, I'm in teacher mode.
let's have some cheder cheese.
- [Domino's Woman] For the sauce is it okay if we keep
with the barbecue or?
- let's go no sauce on that third then,
I wouldn't want to through off the vibe of the pizza.
But we will do the cheddar cheese.
- [Domino's Woman] Okay.
- Let's get a little chicken on there,
maybe a little Canadian bacon.
- And finally, crushed red pepper.
- [Domino's Woman] Crushed red pepper,
that's in the shaker, it's just on the side.
- I would pay some extra too, if there's ability
to shake it on top.
- [Domino's Woman] Okay, I'll go head and do that for you.
I appreciate it and I think that's gonna top
it off for the C's.
- [Domino's Woman] Anything else for you today?
- No that's gonna do it.
- [Domino's Woman] Okay, so give us about 30
to 40 minutes okay?
- 40 minutes sounds great, thank you so much.
- Oh, man!
- I mean, they brought in the big guns, girl came up into
Domino's and was cooperative man.
- I mean, I so impressed with how they just
are going for this, you know?
- Yeah I know, I was just very surprised.
- [Link] It's a prank town.
- They are nicer people than I thought.
- [Rhett] What we're tryin to guess is if they
got these sections 100% correct according to what
you asked for, right?
- That's correct.
- A was Alfredo sauce, anchovies--
- Asiago cheese.
- That's correct Asiago cheese.
- American cheese.
- American cheese too so we're gettin'
doubled up on the cheese, I hope you
guys know your cheese differentials.
- I didn't know pizza places had American cheese.
- The first thing I'm gonna go to is the cut in vertical
thirds, since they basically said
they weren't gonna do that, I just don't don't think
we can check that.
- By the end of this thing, I think
she gained confidence in herself.
- All right what about A section?
- [Link] All right so that's Alfredo sauce.
- {Rhett] Asiago.
- [Gus] Anchovies.
- [Link] American cheese.
- I think they got that right.
Now you move through --
- I don't know, 'cause B is what?
B was barbecue sauce--
- Bacon, beef, barbecue sauce.
- Lots of B stuff, she threw in buffalo,
she was offerin' up ideas too.
She seemed completely on board for that so
I think she got that one right.
- Me too, you know, there's a lot in there, she didn't--
- Ooh, I think the C section is where she faltered.
- C was, gosh, I don't even remember.
- [Producer] Chicken.
- Chicken, that's right. - Canadian Bacon.
- Canadian Bacon.
- [Link] You guys, you guys know so you'll be able to
validate that I'm correct.
- Oh wow so we're, basically the complete opposite.
- Yeah, I'll go with that. - Let's take a look
at this pizza and see how accurate we were.
- All right let's open her up. - [Link] Ooh, look at that.
- [Rhett] Okay, so they definitely did not
do the vertical thirds.
- [Gus] That's correct.
- [Link] But they did some sort of thirds,
and you gotta give them somethin', dang it!
- They did traditional thirds.
- They said they weren't gonna do anything.
- [Gus] Oh, that awful.
- [Rhett] Do you think you got everything?
- [Link] Smell of that.
- Oh, those anchovies are strong.
- I mean its lookin' like, the biggest thing is,
is this Asiago cheese, though?
- I think they go that section right, I mean not just
because I said they would but--
- Is there any American cheese though?
- See I don't know because, I've seen American
cheese be white and like kinda the golden.
- I believe at the cheese places, the pizza places,
American cheese is white.
[Producer] I don't have that info but I do know that
got that they section correct, so, Rhett, you're correct.
- [Rhett] They got it right.
All right moving onto the B section,
- [Link] Aw, dang it. - [Rhett] Bacon, banana
peppers, I see all that.
- [Gus] It's very very sticky here too.
- [Rhett] There's buffalo sauce, I can see that, kinda
some of the orangey-ness.
- [Gus] Yup, and there is barbecue here on the crust too,
- [Rhett] Dang, they got B right.
- Look at this, I know that, I know that it's maybe
a little anecdotal here but, this is some small spinach.
- [Rhett] That's baby spinach, they got baby spinach.
They got B right!
- You got banana peppers, black olives, what is this though,
what's this B, is this?
Oh, this is beef, that beef.
- [Rhett] They got beef!
- Okay so they got the whole B section
correct it looks like.
- [Link] Let's take a look at C, so no sauce--
- [Gus] No sauce at all. - [Link] Check, chicken,
check, Canadian bacon, check.
- They got the crushed red pepper.
- They did, they busted out the little shaker.
- [Link] Yeah, and then what is this?
That's more chicken, that's it.
They got C right too. - Is that all the C's?
- [Gus] Yeah, they got them all.
- [Producer] They got C right, too.
- They got C right!
- And they tried to go above and beyond by third-ing it
when they just should of not.
(light happy music)
- And now you callin' the Papa.
- I'm callin the Papa, in my experience Papa John's is
been the most consistent in quality, so I have
the highest hopes for this pizza.
- [Darrel] Thank you for calling Papa John's
this is Darrel, this for delivery or take out?
- This will be for delivery.
- [Darrel] And what would you like to order today?
- Well, me and the boys last night, we won our bowling
league championship and we're really excited.
So to celebrate we're looking to have a little bit of
a complicated pizza that were totally willing
to pay extra for.
- [Darrel] Okay.
- I'm looking to set up kind of a bowling lane
on a pizza, kinda like a little diorama.
(Darrel humming)
To give you a little more perspective let me tell ya,
kinda what I'm lookin' for.
If we could have two lines going right up through the middle
of the pizza like gutters, made out of pineapple, and
if you could have some pins at the end of bowling lane
made out of onions.
- [Darrel] It would be easier to do with black olives
or somethin' like that.
- With black olives?
- [Darrel] Because you can see it better.
- Yeah, you know that's a great idea and maybe a
bowling ball coming down the middle of the lane,
just made with a single pepperoni.
- [Darrel] Okay.
- Let go head at the top of that lane let have a little
bowling guy over there.
Can you make just a little stick
guy with some ranch dressing.
- [Darrel] What about maybe a stick
guy out of green peppers?
- Green peppers, let me check if that'll work.
Yeah you know let's do a stick man made out of green peppers
at the top of the lane.
And if we could just, across the whole pizza,
this is way easier, my man Turkey Tom, bowled
four turkeys last night, so if we could just
cover the whole pizza in turkey sausage.
Do you have any turkey sausage?
- [Darrel] No.
- No turkey sausage, well we'll do regular sausage.
I'll just lie to him and tell him it's turkey.
- [Darrel] Okay. - And that should be it, that
sounds like one heck of a pizza.
- [Darrel] Okay, I'll be creative.
- I really appreciate it man.
- [Darrel] Give me about, 35 minutes and your
order should be ready.
- 35 minutes, the boys will be so stoked man,
thank you so much.
- [Darrel] All right bud, no problem.
- Bye-bye.
(everyone laughing)
- His name is Darrel?
- I think it was Darrel.
- The boys will be so stoked , yeah the boys will be,
you've got that right.
- I mean, just the fact that Darrel was willing
to work with you, it was like an artistic collaboration.
- He got creative.
- He was never negative, he jumped right on
he like art class 2.0 boys, let's go!
He was super stoked.
- [Rhett] So basically, this is the whole scene here.
- [Link] I'm excited about this.
Pineapple gutters that's pretty straight forward,
I'm gonna go with a yes on that.
- [Rhett] I feel like he got all these right.
- Well he came up with the olive pins,
so I know that he got that right, pepperoni ball.
- I mean that should be easy in theory.
- It's just putting on pepperoni down.
- Yeah, it's all I asked for.
- Unless he over interpreted it.
- You know what, it's easy to forget though.
- [Link] Rhett, you've taken a bold stance, so.
Pepperoni man is made out of green peppers.
He came up with that.
- His idea, see that's a variable you can factor in too is,
is he so enthusiastic about this pizza,
That he thinks he needs to take creative
liberties of his own.
- [Link] Pepperoni ball, I think he took creative liberties
I think he over interpreted that.
I think there's gonna be a ball of pepperonis.
- Oh just a wad?
- A wad. - Throw some twine in there.
- Yeah, maybe.
- All right should we take a look?
- Final answer, yes.
- Okay let's open her up.
- [Link] Look at that.
- [Gus] Check that out, look at that.
- [Link] For, that's beautiful.
- [Gus] That is fantastic.
- Okay so you got the gutters of pineapple, check--
- And I specifically on the phone too,
I asked him for 10 pins, he did them all.
- [Rhett] He did it!
- [Gus] Look at that.
- [Rhett And Link] Pepperoni ball, check.
- Pepper man, check.
- [Link] That looks like a candelabra to me.
- [Rhett] It's more cactus-like than man-like,
but the thing he missed, I understand why he did it,
is he did not cover the entire pizza in turkey sausage.
- And you know what, it's better that way.
- It is better, but it's
technically incorrect, is the problem.
- [Link] So it's clear that Rhett has won.
All right hit me with the bill man, I'll gladly pay it.
- Let's see we got a couple of them in here,
so let's go a head and toss that.
I took a couple quick trips down to CVS, too,
if you wanna cop that.
I figured work expense stuff, you know, same day.
- You got all your prescriptions filled and
now they're all on Link.
