eyes of regular Americans who are
affected by politics and policy
everybody check it out at TYT dot-com /
audio so you may have seen on social
media that I hop was up to something and
they really wanted you to know about it
they were flipping the P to a B it's AI
hob now and they were like hey what is
the B stand for Twitter like way in let
us know what you think and everyone was
saying it's breakfast or it's brunch
well they flip the script and they put
this on their Twitter they said dear
internet and we appreciate your dear
internet we appreciate your patience now
let's see who guessed right behold I ha
basically it stands for International
House of burgers I hate this we are
definitely going to be IHOP adaran
rubella is president of IHOP told CNN
money but we want to convey that we are
taking our burgers as seriously as our
pancakes what is wrong with you the
internet mostly agreed with me and
Wendy's contributed to some of the
controversy when they were asked so at
Wendy's you just want to let I know
burgers on your block thought you were
the og Wendy said not really afraid of
burgers for a place that decided
pancakes or to our dragon so the I think
the takeaway from this story is that
Wendy's is clever and may hit back
harder they do yeah they're really funny
with their comebacks and like this is
all we're not idiot it's like we know
this is all like a publicity stunt
marketing scheme whatever but why does
this story make you mad because exactly
what you said it is a publicity stunt it
is a marketing thing and it's so obvious
and just reeks of out of touch people
that that wanted to have a clever thing
to do to roll out on their social media
and they had all these people around the
Linux for controversy and getting people
involved just shut up and make pancakes
so there's our still doing there's
nothing's changed
they're just doing it for a little bit
but they're still they said they're
still I hop they're just wanting to
focus on their burgers then cool make
better burgers so this is this is not a
story we typically do but my brain can't
handle ending each show with the story
that makes me incredibly upset so I'm
like yeah let's just let's just slip in
that i Hobbs story I should look you're
right you're right look as long as the
eye is still there because the
international flavor of the place is
what I really do have a wide variety of
international foods right yeah I'm there
really for that because for those of us
who can't travel overseas because we're
scheduled really I go to IHOP or IHOP
that was in the International try I
can't remember the last time I went to
an IHOP you know one time I went on a
date with a man this is a weird story I
did and I told who specifically do not
order the Belgian waffles because I was
raised in Belgium and what they serve is
not a Belgian waffle it's just a waffle
that's thicker it's just a waffle that's
thicker and he ordered that and as a
joke I think he thought I was kidding
and now I'm gay I mean that's not why
but I do like I remember that
specifically of being like men like
watch it's better story if that is why
you're gay yeah it's a look it's a
marketing thing
I don't know burgers I guess are for
them they're gonna it's a probably a
price point that they can make I just
feel like they spent the entirety of the
business promoting so like it's good
when you're when you have a brand right
like in this day and age there's a lot
of emphasis regardless of what you do to
have a brand you have a brand that is
your brand that is what people know you
for
making an international pancake right no
are there a bunch of different countries
that do pancakes differently I know
there's crepes and then they lie to you
they'll say things or it's like these
are Swedish peaches like smell yes the
market must have gotten soft on a
pancake thing and they thought I mean
really it's a business decision at all
the burgers yeah so they had to pivot to
the burgers please other restaurants
don't do this it's annoying if waffle
house starts taking out the thing and
just calling it like we're blank house
guess what we're gonna be and then they
roll out sandwiches it's not cute it's
not funny this isn't my dad you say it's
not cute it's not funny and there will
be consequences that's just gonna be an
