Mitch and Wiger's pal Michael "Mookie" Blaiklock (Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp, Comedy Bang! Bang!) joins to break down famed egghead Malcolm Gladwell's podcast about McDonald's fries and to talk slimming down through fitness.
Malcolm McDonald's[]
Malcolm Gladwell
Famous writer Malcolm Gladwell made an episode of his Revisionist History podcast called "McDonald's Broke My Heart" in which he comes out as against the much-beloved fries at McDonald's. The basis of the theory seems to be that McDonald's fries over the years have changed recipes slightly, and he misses the original recipe.
The Doughboys do not recall these pre-1990 fries, but discuss McDonald's fries deeply, and the inevitability of change and evolution.
They then try a bag of cold McDonald's fries which had been sitting around for an hour.
They rate them on a scale of either Gladwell or Urkel.

They next carry the conversation over into how to slim down through better fitness, as Mookie and Mitch share a trainer, and Mookie had recently lost a good deal of weight.
