1:43 everything that we know don't you guys want to be a part of Saving a piece of your childhood yes that's why I said absolutely I me let's do it do they still have salad bars is that still we could if we own it we could make it come back if it's not there pretty cheap to buy we could put slides in there if we wanted to cuz we own it oh that's right okay so for the low low price of $400,000 we could get a Sizzlers mhm $400 $400,000 are there any available Closer To Us by I'm just asking to be San Fernando Valley that's closer than Japan they have Sizzlers in Japan right he's a good negotiator it's closer than Antarctica are you even using your brain you're right dude I'm in I I actually been to a Sizzlers in Japan I was really upset really what do they call it there it's the quality is too

2:34 good they got like KATU if you had costume be sick as ████ you were upset because the quality was too good yep how's that work because and why were you at a Sizzler in Japan I wanted a burger oh cuz scissors is known for burgers I wanted a burger for what's scissors known for they name for like a little surf and turf you know mediocre steak no no no F steak Stakes you don't even need an ounce of sauce at not an ounce okay here's s right is it above Norms or under Norms under Norms you talking about the breakfast place yeah the $8.99 Oh I thought you meant like normal oh no no Norms yeah like okay like the Norms carols Denny's that's here right yeah you compare Norms to Denny's scissors is is more like caros

3:25 and is caros is down here dude caros is like all the way down here it's like a dancer it's like a dancer is that right scissor up here danc scissor like way up here yeah and the where like BJs and like Chili's Real Talk Chili's is and BJs is up here really Chili's up there like that far up I don't know I think it' be just maybe a few notches up I just think they used to be here but Sizzlers is senior citizen and BJ's College I thought Sizzlers was an old person thing yeah there's a lot of velcro sounds in the bathroom yeah which also makes it way less fine dining okay what about scissors the Marie calendar where's that at oh I think they're kind of the same neck and neck neck and neck neck and neck okay but sizers doesn't have pies yeah Marie cers has a pretty clear brand though for what they I don't know what scissors scissors might have like a key liai or some ████ really are you sure about that I don't know well

4:15 back in the day weren't they they were one of the first places to have that like salad bar right that was like endless you just keep going back and get stuff end is that a scissors Innovation that's Su Plantation no they they that's sup plantation's entire thing oh neck and neck that's another brand we could revive scissors was like going to Pizza Hut but if Pizza Hut was for kids scissors was for like old people right cuz like it was a similar type of building structure It's All Coming Back Now Red Lobsters is like I never been in one actually only they biscuits everything else Red Lobsters is also fine dining for us poor people I never been to much that's why you know it's one of those things where um it was unachievable like everyone like in my family was like oh we're not going there it's too it's too expensive so then it just stuck with me where after I've had Michelin star all that spent omash

5:05 whatever I would never walk into a Red Lobster cuz my head was like oh that's just that's just unachievable so I never even bothered right after you had Michelin star and omes you saided Lobster was n no man they won't let me in no it's like it wasn't even on my radar it's like you know when something feels Out Of Reach you just don't think about it that's how I saw red lobsters is like that's nuts to me but I love it I know right uh no but you so what gave you this idea of of what were you doing I I'm I mean I'm yeah what were you doing that cont matters the most I look at businesses to buy right so then um it just pops up and then I just thought it would be so funny if all of us just owned the Sizzlers together we worked we worked there

5:55 together and it's already profitable that's the thing guys like we're working there together can David be a partner but he never ever works there he could run the Instagram I like how he I like his friend a sizler Instagram check it out we got the gum out of the carpet daily Vlogs I guarantee with us and L across the building what we know about social yeah dude oh it's like we're buying a brand just to just to have fun yeah well dude can we put our name on the building too like Magic Johnson oh the careful boy careful boy Sizzler is it still profitable though will it be profitable after after we yeah after we get it grosses like 1.4 million and it only brings in 100

6:45 Grand how much how much passive how much passive like 100 Grand but it grow it's all passive so we'll fire everyone and we work it and our ████ it'll be even more profit so it has 900,000 worth of expenses oh holy that's a restaurant let's focus on the profits then you know what I mean $100 hey that's good for a restaurant if you could get 10% from a restaurant you're golden you know there's some 15-year-old right now who's like I these guys are complaining about $100,000 that's a lot of money it's fully staffed so that means you don't have to work all right and um all we got to come up with is maybe almost half a mil we already have an arcade machine for it oh yeah all right imagine K's arcade has sers we we'd

7:37 Rebrand it the thing about Sizzlers is it's K just Sizzlers it's lacking the energy it's lacking the energy that it used to have like I remember when I was a kid and that was like describe the experience you're walking through the door it's your birthday or you want a recital or something or your parents found a coupon they're like dress up we're going fancy were going Sizzlers yeah that's why and I remember when I said in the group trap I was like dude like do you guys remember it being like like a big thing like we dressed up we went to a Sizzlers it was like a we we had to put on a collared shirt and then put cink on you yeah that was Outback for me W out Outback was huge Outback was a was the thing only ate it once and I threw up like crazy so I never ate there

10:10 okay well we had to prep for the food though I remember it's like we're putting on the good clothes and we're going to some and then what happens when you're there I don't even remember what the food was to be honest and at the scale of 1 to 10 how serious are you about getting a scissor if I had more money yeah let's say you do I would if you% don't do it I would do it th% a th% I would if I I would even I would just get it myself like if I I think we would have a lot of fun a sad fernan Valley Sizzler yeah nope look it's only funny if we all get the Sizzlers for yeah it's not funny if you get it you get richer no no a joke there yeah if we have I'd want to invite you guys in but I wouldn't want to expose you to theis funny we all get in it together and we all bust yeah
