TREY GERRALD:Yes, 'I would, 'I fell victim
CHELSEY DONN:oh no.
TREY GERRALD:several weeks ago, maybe even A' month at this point.
TREY GERRALD:'I did Instagram about it, so you may have seen, but um,
CHELSEY DONN:What
CHELSEY DONN:' TREY GERRALD: I was, 'I was working out at the
CHELSEY DONN:Oh
TREY GERRALD:Are you out of your motherfucking mind?
TREY GERRALD:Have we succumbeded that horribly as A' culture 'I?
TREY GERRALD:Are you fucking kidding?
TREY GERRALD:Let me just put into perspective here.
TREY GERRALD:This was A', gorgeous, beautiful woman, very physically fit.
TREY GERRALD:She did not break A' bead of sweat and 'I am in the background, like
TREY GERRALD:So I'm sweating, but like disgusting
CHELSEY DONN:were you in footage?
CHELSEY DONN:The footage
TREY GERRALD:but let me just paint the picture.
TREY GERRALD:This is A' gym, right?
TREY GERRALD:She has A' little mini tripod that her phone is attached to, and she goes, and she'll
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah.
TREY GERRALD:and she's like looking over and like smiling and batting
TREY GERRALD:She has like,
TREY GERRALD:Giant makeup on like 'I.
TREY GERRALD:Do drag makeup 'I.
TREY GERRALD:Know when someone's face is beat.
TREY GERRALD:You are at the gym ma'am.
TREY GERRALD:And then she would do her three little reps and go bend her little
TREY GERRALD:Hi Casper girl.
TREY GERRALD:17 'I.
TREY GERRALD:Love you Gina.
TREY GERRALD:Jason 7 65.
TREY GERRALD:Throw me some hearts fans and then she would like have on full conversations.
TREY GERRALD:Live streaming at the gym.
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah.
CHELSEY DONN:You did not volunteer to be A' Background actor.
TREY GERRALD:No, honey Child 'I.
TREY GERRALD:Pay my annual dues cuz I'm A'.
TREY GERRALD:Principal performer on camera.
TREY GERRALD:'I do not work in the background unless you're gonna pay me.
TREY GERRALD:Okay.
TREY GERRALD:Honey Child 'I could not believe it.
CHELSEY DONN:that's terrible.
CHELSEY DONN:'I.
TREY GERRALD:live streams their workout.
CHELSEY DONN:'I mean it's bad enough when people are like recording their workouts?
TREY GERRALD:Yes.
CHELSEY DONN:Anything more than that?
CHELSEY DONN:Unacceptable.
TREY GERRALD:'I mean.
TREY GERRALD:It is annoying to me when people are recording themselves, but 'I also
TREY GERRALD:And sometimes people document their journey, so Sure.
TREY GERRALD:Okay.
TREY GERRALD:But the audacity to livestream while you're at the gym, it is like the most narcissistic,
TREY GERRALD:I'm at A' loss for words.
TREY GERRALD:That you are that self-absorbed to engage in the narcissistic practice
TREY GERRALD:Like it's so,
CHELSEY DONN:you didn't rent out the gym as your A' film studio,
TREY GERRALD:but on top of all of that, it was so weird to me that
CHELSEY DONN:right?
TREY GERRALD:all like feigning the work.
TREY GERRALD:But obviously she was someone who does work out, but she was not sweating.
CHELSEY DONN:she probably like films that like, does like whatever she needs to do and
TREY GERRALD:You couldn't, you couldn't
CHELSEY DONN:you couldn't 'I mean you can't be anaerobic and being like, hi Stacy, 1 25.
TREY GERRALD:'I.
TREY GERRALD:Mean 'I.
TREY GERRALD:Just 'I.
TREY GERRALD:Couldn't get over the calling out of the names of the
CHELSEY DONN:So obnoxious.
CHELSEY DONN:Like beyond obnoxious.
CHELSEY DONN:I'm sorry you had to deal with that Trey.
TREY GERRALD:That's my Complaint.
TREY GERRALD:Just, you know, if you are ever someone that live streams the workouts, just
TREY GERRALD:Look, look at what we're doing on this planet.
TREY GERRALD:That's my Complaint.
TREY GERRALD:Well, 'I, 'I am glad 'I was able to release that, and now you've had to take it on.
TREY GERRALD:So that feels better in my mind.
CHELSEY DONN:You know what?
CHELSEY DONN:It's my pleasure to take away some of that.
TREY GERRALD:Thank you.
CHELSEY DONN:You're welcome.
CHELSEY DONN:Yes,
TREY GERRALD:are you ready to share with me the review you brought in for this week?
CHELSEY DONN:'I am.
CHELSEY DONN:Should we jump in?
TREY GERRALD:Let's do it.
VOICEOVER:Review, That, Review.
CHELSEY DONN:As you know, we are your trustee.
CHELSEY DONN:Review Queens.
CHELSEY DONN:We bring in reviews from the internet that we feel need to be inspected.
TREY GERRALD:We read you that review, then we break it down together and rate the impact of
TREY GERRALD:It's A', very regal process that ChelseyBD and 'I call.
VOICEOVER:Assess, That, Kvetch.
TREY GERRALD:So share with us ChelseyBD.
TREY GERRALD:What is today's review?
TREY GERRALD:'I.
CHELSEY DONN:All right.
CHELSEY DONN:Every once in A' while you know, 'I hop all over the internet trying to find interesting
CHELSEY DONN:And so 'I did happen upon A' Reddit feed of zero star reviews.
CHELSEY DONN:So 'I started just sort of reading through some reviews and 'I found one.
CHELSEY DONN:'I.
CHELSEY DONN:I'm gonna do A', little more research, and I'm gonna, I'm gonna find that review.
CHELSEY DONN:That's all I'm gonna really say for now in terms of the finding of it.
CHELSEY DONN:And then I'll take you to where 'I came, which is when 'I found the
CHELSEY DONN:It is called Thrusters Lounge in San Diego, California.
CHELSEY DONN:This is A' Yelp, one star review.
CHELSEY DONN:Written by Jeff O.
TREY GERRALD:Okay.
CHELSEY DONN:This bar fills top shelf bottles with cheap alcohol.
CHELSEY DONN:'I ordered A' Casamigos neat, and was served A' cheap tequila from the Casamigos bottle.
CHELSEY DONN:The bartender was A' total dick when 'I told him that it was not what 'I ordered Whack.
CHELSEY DONN:So that's all we're going to hear from Jeff O.
TREY GERRALD:All right.
TREY GERRALD:'I have A'.
TREY GERRALD:Lot of thoughts here cuz you know, in my life I've been A' bartender before, it has
TREY GERRALD:That is so smart.
TREY GERRALD:Okay, but
CHELSEY DONN:Oh my God.
CHELSEY DONN:Trey.
CHELSEY DONN:'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Love that you just said that.
TREY GERRALD:You know what's there for me
CHELSEY DONN:So are you saying that you believe Jeff?
TREY GERRALD:'I don't believe Jeff 'I.
TREY GERRALD:Think Jeff would need to supply A' lot more supporting evidence than the fact that they
TREY GERRALD:Neat.
TREY GERRALD:So if you got this tequila serve to you neat, that's gonna be two ounces.
TREY GERRALD:That is the proper legal serving of A'.
TREY GERRALD:Neat.
TREY GERRALD:So that's
CHELSEY DONN:And there's no ice.
CHELSEY DONN:There's nothing else.
CHELSEY DONN:It's just straight tequila, two ounces.
CHELSEY DONN:It's like A' big shot kind of.
TREY GERRALD:And 'I get, yes you can taste the sort of difference, but like
TREY GERRALD:And then Jeff also says that the bartender's A' dick.
TREY GERRALD:So it's sort of, cuz 'I would imagine it's probably not the bartender that would be
TREY GERRALD:It's gonna be whoever is ordering the bottles, which would, 'I would
CHELSEY DONN:'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Guess so.
CHELSEY DONN:But they're saying that the bartender was A' dick when they told them
CHELSEY DONN:Wac.
CHELSEY DONN:So 'I, 'I, 'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Don't know if they're saying that like the bartender is necessarily the one that pulled this
CHELSEY DONN:Go 'I.
TREY GERRALD:Right.
TREY GERRALD:That sounds like two separate complaints.
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah.
CHELSEY DONN:It is 'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Think.
CHELSEY DONN:'I think that the first Complaint is that we didn't think the drink was right and
CHELSEY DONN:Complaint for the establishment, right?
TREY GERRALD:Right.
TREY GERRALD:Because what do you think the bar, like what 'I mean?
TREY GERRALD:'I guess.
TREY GERRALD:You would hope that the bartender would be like, Oh, oh, okay.
TREY GERRALD:Well let me, let me pour you another one like that.
TREY GERRALD:No, bartender's gonna react that way.
TREY GERRALD:They're gonna be like, what do you mean 'I literally just poured it.
CHELSEY DONN:right.
TREY GERRALD:A' cheap?
TREY GERRALD:Like they're gonna be
CHELSEY DONN:'I think that that's the hard thing to decipher here because it's like,
CHELSEY DONN:And 'I guess, even if Jeff was right, you pr like you've been A' bartender
CHELSEY DONN:The bottles are there.
CHELSEY DONN:When you get there, you do you, you might be doing inventory to say like, how much
CHELSEY DONN:Remember that from Mary Poppins?
CHELSEY DONN:But like other than you sort of doing your general accounting of where you are in the
CHELSEY DONN:So like the bartender must think that this is Casamigos.
CHELSEY DONN:Of course they're gonna react like, what do you want me to do about it?
CHELSEY DONN:Because it does kind of seem like A' money grab in A' way.
CHELSEY DONN:Like you're try, are you trying to get A' refund?
CHELSEY DONN:Like what are you trying to do?
TREY GERRALD:Yeah, it's like such an ex, like it's like an expose.
TREY GERRALD:Like you, if Jeff was to really prove this point, they would need hidden cameras.
TREY GERRALD:They would need an extended amount of time to show that it's the same bottle with the same dust on
TREY GERRALD:Like, like it's just like this.
TREY GERRALD:It's such A' wild accusation.
CHELSEY DONN:though it's obnoxious and we do kind of like hate it when reviewers go there, but
CHELSEY DONN:'I was A' trained, bartender and 'I know the difference between
CHELSEY DONN:Taste it, you know, just.
CHELSEY DONN:Build yourself up in credibility, A' little bit because you're not giving us any credibility.
CHELSEY DONN:You just had to kill A' neat.
CHELSEY DONN:And you're automatically going with the assumption that they switched it.
CHELSEY DONN:'I mean 'I Don't know.
CHELSEY DONN:'I don't know why.
CHELSEY DONN:I'm not really trusting A' hundred percent what Jeff is saying,
TREY GERRALD:well, you just said it.
TREY GERRALD:There's no supporting evidence here.
TREY GERRALD:There's
CHELSEY DONN:guess there's no supporting evidence.
CHELSEY DONN:But then at the same time, I'm like, well, what if they're right?
TREY GERRALD:Then give us more information.
TREY GERRALD:Help us know that you're right.
TREY GERRALD:Otherwise, you're just saying the word wack.
CHELSEY DONN:That's true.
TREY GERRALD:Like that's not valuable to me.
TREY GERRALD:'I can't tell if you're being truthful or shady.
TREY GERRALD:It sounds to me like you're being shady cuz you're saying they're lying to you.
TREY GERRALD:The bartender's A' dick, which is like A' secondary Complaint has nothing to
TREY GERRALD:Now I'm like, how many have you drunk before you realized that this casamigos need is fake?
TREY GERRALD:Like I'm just sort of like, really not
CHELSEY DONN:right.
CHELSEY DONN:Like were you wasted?
CHELSEY DONN:What happened?
TREY GERRALD:this and I've never even considered.
TREY GERRALD:Doing that.
TREY GERRALD:So 'I don't think this is typical,
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah.
CHELSEY DONN:'I was gonna say 'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Don't think 'I would hope that this is, isn't something that's typical.
CHELSEY DONN:It's not something that I've ever really heard of.
CHELSEY DONN:'I mean.
CHELSEY DONN:I'm sure maybe it exists.
CHELSEY DONN:'I don't go to bars that much, but, and we're not really giving that much information about the bar.
CHELSEY DONN:At the same time, 'I understand it's A' review and your review seems to be this
CHELSEY DONN:Any information about like the ambiance or any of the other factors of this
TREY GERRALD:Yeah, there's nothing about thrusters at all.
TREY GERRALD:It's just an accusation.
CHELSEY DONN:and it's also called thrusters, which makes me feel like this is not high brow.
TREY GERRALD:No, 'I.
TREY GERRALD:It makes me think 'I thought 'I was gonna be like about with strippers or
CHELSEY DONN:Same.
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah.
CHELSEY DONN:Like it just, it just seems like it's, it's like fratty or something like that.
CHELSEY DONN:And 'I think that A', lot of people that are gonna go to A' Bar called thrusters
CHELSEY DONN:Casamigos
TREY GERRALD:To me, 'I feel like they're probably gonna be getting beer,
CHELSEY DONN:exactly.
CHELSEY DONN:Like 'I feel like this is like A' beer bar.
CHELSEY DONN:So 'I don't think that this is A' deal breaker, you know.
CHELSEY DONN:In any way.
TREY GERRALD:'I think 'I can crown
CHELSEY DONN:'I can Crown 'I can crown Jeff o.
CHELSEY DONN:Let's do it.
TREY GERRALD:So ChelseyBD and 'I each have our own set of zero to five crown cards.
TREY GERRALD:In an effort to be fair and not influenced by one another, we will
CHELSEY DONN:we go.
VOICEOVER:The Queens are Tabulating
VOICEOVER:to A' school.
CHELSEY DONN:Okay.
CHELSEY DONN:I'm holding up one Crown Trey is holding up A' Half Crown Trey.
CHELSEY DONN:You go first.
CHELSEY DONN:Why A' Half Crown for Jeff O 'I.
TREY GERRALD:I'm entertained by the prospect of A' Bar that would go to length these
TREY GERRALD:It's literally never occurred to me as A' possible practice in the 37 years I've been live.
TREY GERRALD:So I'm entertained, but it.
TREY GERRALD:We just said it over and over, like, Jeff needs more supporting evidence.
TREY GERRALD:There needs to be more details.
TREY GERRALD:There needs to, as you said, A', little bit of credibility on their side also.
TREY GERRALD:Like what?
TREY GERRALD:What Casamigos Like get real if you're, well, whatever.
TREY GERRALD:'I have A'.
TREY GERRALD:Lot of opinions, but 'I 'I don't find this useful.
TREY GERRALD:There would be no impact except for 'I.
TREY GERRALD:Would maybe now always associate thrusters as are they being shady?
TREY GERRALD:ChelseyBD.
TREY GERRALD:Why did you say A' whole half extra.
TREY GERRALD:Why'd you say one?
CHELSEY DONN:'I said one Cuz 'I do think maybe after reading this, regardless of whether or
CHELSEY DONN:'I do think that is there.
CHELSEY DONN:Like if there is some shadiness going on, maybe 'I don't wanna go top shelf.
CHELSEY DONN:'I.
CHELSEY DONN:'I, 'I.
CHELSEY DONN:'I really think that that's the only information here, and that's why 'I gave
CHELSEY DONN:Don't know.
CHELSEY DONN:Somewhat entertaining, but just one crown, just one crown's worth of entertainment for Jeff o.
VOICEOVER:There's A' reply.
CHELSEY DONN:So this reply is written by Vinny c 'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Forgot just at the top, and I'll, I'm gonna quickly just like read this.
CHELSEY DONN:There's A', you know how it says like from the business and it talks about it.
CHELSEY DONN:It says, meet the business owner, Zo and Nicholson.
CHELSEY DONN:The bar is owned by two members of the award-winning high school,
CHELSEY DONN:So that's like who we're dealing with.
CHELSEY DONN:All right.
TREY GERRALD:they have A' song called Thruster or something?
CHELSEY DONN:'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Guess maybe 'I Don't know.
CHELSEY DONN:This is written by Vinny c Zo and Nicholson, but the response is Vinny C.
CHELSEY DONN:Okay, here we go.
CHELSEY DONN:This is not A'.
CHELSEY DONN:Direct response to Jeff.
CHELSEY DONN:Rather, A' fictitious response to A' Make believe person named Fluff.
TREY GERRALD:'I know.
CHELSEY DONN:off fluff.
CHELSEY DONN:You're A' giant lying pinata full of barf and turds.
CHELSEY DONN:Fluff loves whacking the hell out of himself so he can pour his barf and lying turd garbage
CHELSEY DONN:We do not do what you accuse the bartender of doing.
CHELSEY DONN:We are not going to compromise our alcoholic ethics for an extra what?
CHELSEY DONN:$12 on the back end.
CHELSEY DONN:Fact is fluff.
CHELSEY DONN:You got A' Casamigos.
CHELSEY DONN:The dick bartender was wack because it was you.
CHELSEY DONN:Who was the wack dick fluff.
CHELSEY DONN:You were being A', huge.
CHELSEY DONN:Barfy poop, whack dick, who was yelling A'.
CHELSEY DONN:Dumb line.
CHELSEY DONN:Stop yelping, just put down your pinata, stick fingers and go yelp the mirror, because
CHELSEY DONN:One measly little complaining self-entitled star, but it's not too late to be better.
CHELSEY DONN:Maybe it wasn't the tequila inside the casamigos that was fraudulent.
CHELSEY DONN:Rather, the contents inside the fluff that needed some upgrading fluff.
CHELSEY DONN:It's not true.
CHELSEY DONN:What plumbers say, we literally don't need turd people.
CHELSEY DONN:So good luck out there, suck less, and take that farty Jeff o Thank you for letting me
CHELSEY DONN:Yelp took down my original response because it went viral, but they
CHELSEY DONN:Yet Jeff calling my bartender A' Dick and lying about our tequila is totally cool with Yelp.
TREY GERRALD:Hmm.
CHELSEY DONN:Mm-hmm.
TREY GERRALD:Okay.
TREY GERRALD:Well that final little asterisk conclusion, what totally changed my mind.
CHELSEY DONN:Yes.
TREY GERRALD:the whole fluff thing, the more you said the word fluff, it got funnier to me.
TREY GERRALD:But the whole turd poop, pinata fart, poop, like 'I 'I was like, this is A'
TREY GERRALD:So then when 'I, he, I'm garnering here, that 'I guess it was originally re A' reply to Jeff.
TREY GERRALD:So in order to skirt around it, that's why they went in hard with that stuff.
CHELSEY DONN:Yes.
TREY GERRALD:'I mean.
TREY GERRALD:All right.
TREY GERRALD:So it did sort of 'I my major Complaint was like, they take the comedy route so hardcore
TREY GERRALD:For what?
TREY GERRALD:A' $12 like bonus in our back.
TREY GERRALD:Like, that's so stupid.
TREY GERRALD:What are you talking about?
TREY GERRALD:'I?
TREY GERRALD:Wish there was more, as Vinny points out about the alcoholic ethics,
TREY GERRALD:'I want to hear more.
TREY GERRALD:About what that means, but 'I don't know what's there for you.
CHELSEY DONN:'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Think Vinny C is like A' super frat boy.
CHELSEY DONN:'I think that like he fits within the mold of what 'I imagined.
CHELSEY DONN:When 'I heard of A' Bar named Thrusters and the type of guy that would own this kind of bar 'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Think normally 'I would say like, it's kind of annoying.
CHELSEY DONN:It's interesting.
CHELSEY DONN:Usually the reason why 'I brought this in was because usually we see.
CHELSEY DONN:These kind of creativity tactics in the review.
CHELSEY DONN:This is the first time that I've ever seen A' reply to the review.
CHELSEY DONN:That was way more interesting, colorful, divisive, whatever you
CHELSEY DONN:Usually the response is very vanilla, you know, so sorry you had A' bad experience.
TREY GERRALD:Being buttoned up and trying to be A' little professional
CHELSEY DONN:that is not Vinny C, and there's A' part of me that wants to ding him for that.
CHELSEY DONN:And then there's another part of me that wants to say, Maybe this is Vinny C.
CHELSEY DONN:Being Vinny C, and this is Thrusters.
CHELSEY DONN:And if you're gonna read this reply and you're gonna have your panties in A'
CHELSEY DONN:'I feel like the, the like vibe of this is that if you come out with
TREY GERRALD:Which 'I think is fair, and 'I also do appreciate that the
TREY GERRALD:If the accusation is so false that then it's sort of like maybe you're the dick.
TREY GERRALD:Not my employee, like Get real and then 'I think the real win here for me in this reply is at the
TREY GERRALD:And that's okay by Yelp standards, but if 'I roast the person, that is inappropriate.
TREY GERRALD:Why is that double standard there?
TREY GERRALD:And maybe you could argue cuz it's A' business rather than A' person.
TREY GERRALD:But if you are putting this up, isn't it fair for A' rebuttal?
TREY GERRALD:And if it is A' bar called thrusters 'I, don't think they need to have
CHELSEY DONN:Right.
CHELSEY DONN:Certainly not 'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Don't think any of us need that.
CHELSEY DONN:Hr.
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah.
CHELSEY DONN:'I mean 'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Think so.
CHELSEY DONN:'I think it's hard because 'I do wonder what the vetting process is on Yelp.
CHELSEY DONN:Like how are things dinged, you know,
TREY GERRALD:Well, he said it went viral.
CHELSEY DONN:Oh, 'I guess it did go viral.
CHELSEY DONN:That's why
TREY GERRALD:So then it probably became A' culture war where
CHELSEY DONN:right?
CHELSEY DONN:Either you're A'.
TREY GERRALD:inappropriate.
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah.
CHELSEY DONN:Are you A' Vinny C or are you A' Jeff o
TREY GERRALD:But the Yelp comment is like, okay, so if Jeff has the free speech to leave
CHELSEY DONN:right.
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah.
CHELSEY DONN:'I mean 'I.
CHELSEY DONN:'I 'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Don't know.
CHELSEY DONN:'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Think it's interesting.
CHELSEY DONN:I'm trying to think of what 'I think of Vinny as A' manager.
CHELSEY DONN:Do you think that Vinny is like A' nice guy to the people that are working for him and he's
CHELSEY DONN:C might be A', little bit of A' jerk, like A', little bit different.
CHELSEY DONN:Like you don't want to cross Vinny C or you'll get like attacked because again,
CHELSEY DONN:Like we called the bartender A' dick and we said we made A' A' claim and
CHELSEY DONN:That's really all we said.
CHELSEY DONN:Vinny C came really
TREY GERRALD:really hard.
TREY GERRALD:Yeah, and maybe if it wasn't fluff, 'I would be like, whoa, this is A'.
TREY GERRALD:Little unbalanced.
TREY GERRALD:That's A'.
TREY GERRALD:Good point.
TREY GERRALD:ChelseyBD.
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah, because it's like, you know, we've had people that have responded in quote
CHELSEY DONN:Like you can really knock someone down, A', peg and make them seem irrelevant while
CHELSEY DONN:And 'I do think Vinny is skirting that line.
CHELSEY DONN:'I do think it's more acceptable in this.
CHELSEY DONN:Setting.
CHELSEY DONN:But 'I do wonder, you know, 'I don't wanna 'I, don't know that 'I wanna paint.
CHELSEY DONN:Vinny C as an angel here 'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Think Vinny C might have A'.
CHELSEY DONN:Bit of A' temper.
TREY GERRALD:Well 'I think that like the point of the reply is having an impact
TREY GERRALD:Think for me, 'I wasn't buying Jeff to begin with
CHELSEY DONN:You weren't right.
TREY GERRALD:And 'I think that seeing this is thrusters, like 'I have A' visual
TREY GERRALD:They're probably
CHELSEY DONN:humping, A' humping, humping, like neon with the legs moving or whatever.
TREY GERRALD:the mud flap girl, like I'm sure their major seller is like
TREY GERRALD:So to me 'I think the impact is sort of like, okay, he is like got A' sense of humor about it.
TREY GERRALD:'I also do appreciate the one sentiment of reality of like, what?
TREY GERRALD:What would be the benefit of us doing this?
TREY GERRALD:Like, are you kidding?
TREY GERRALD:But 'I do also hear your point, like 'I do think maybe, maybe Vinny went
TREY GERRALD:It's like thrusters,
CHELSEY DONN:then also, like Vinny said, and 'I have to say yes, like this did go viral.
CHELSEY DONN:Whatever 'I founded in that forum.
CHELSEY DONN:But there's 385 funny votes and 43 cool votes and 42 useful votes on this reply and.
CHELSEY DONN:It does seem like Vinny is being honest about saying like, thanks for giving me the opportunity
CHELSEY DONN:Right.
TREY GERRALD:'I.
TREY GERRALD:Think 'I can crown Vinny.
CHELSEY DONN:Okay.
CHELSEY DONN:'I, think 'I can Crown Vinny too.
CHELSEY DONN:'I.
VOICEOVER:The Queens are Tabulating
VOICEOVER:to the school.
CHELSEY DONN:Oh, interesting.
CHELSEY DONN:This is always so funny to me.
CHELSEY DONN:I'm holding up four crowns.
CHELSEY DONN:Trey is holding up three and A' half Trey.
CHELSEY DONN:You go first.
CHELSEY DONN:Why three?
CHELSEY DONN:And A' half crowns.
CHELSEY DONN:Vinny C.
TREY GERRALD:'I 'I.
TREY GERRALD:Think you've persuaded me.
TREY GERRALD:A' Little bit here.
TREY GERRALD:'I.
TREY GERRALD:Do think like 'I put middle of the road only just because 'I feel like 'I do find the
TREY GERRALD:It's like we're here to have fun.
TREY GERRALD:We're here to like relax and like drink and like.
TREY GERRALD:Do whatever.
TREY GERRALD:So, like to me, I'm not that offended and 'I think the, uh, impact of the reply
TREY GERRALD:And it does make me think like, well, maybe I'll go and if 'I see Zo, like 'I feel like he's
TREY GERRALD:Like 'I just 'I think it's like it's not that serious, like 'I.
TREY GERRALD:We're like, we're serving alcohol and we're not gonna like 'I, 'I.
TREY GERRALD:Don't know.
TREY GERRALD:Neither here nor there.
TREY GERRALD:It's opinion 'I think like is should you be more professional?
TREY GERRALD:Should you not?
TREY GERRALD:'I, don't know.
TREY GERRALD:'I think it's entertaining.
TREY GERRALD:'I don't know.
TREY GERRALD:'I think 'I would still go there.
TREY GERRALD:Just to take A' picture in front of the thruster sign.
TREY GERRALD:Why did you say four 'I?
CHELSEY DONN:'I was also influenced by you, but 'I said four because
CHELSEY DONN:It's super unique.
CHELSEY DONN:I've never seen A' reply like this where we're sort of like, it's almost like if,
CHELSEY DONN:You know, Vinny just mic dropped, right?
CHELSEY DONN:Like you came at them thinking that you're whack and your whatever was gonna really land.
CHELSEY DONN:And Vinny C was like, I'm gonna flip it and reverse it and really send it back into your face.
CHELSEY DONN:And 'I think that, that's interesting.
CHELSEY DONN:'I think some of the fears that 'I had about this not being professional.
CHELSEY DONN:Are excusable within the setting and 'I think that most people are
CHELSEY DONN:Being like, what an asshole 'I think that it was really good that Vinny pointed out
CHELSEY DONN:But I'm not allowed to be honest.
CHELSEY DONN:You know, that was an interesting perspective that 'I think we hadn't heard.
CHELSEY DONN:So for that reason, four crowns for Venice.
TREY GERRALD:that was funny.
TREY GERRALD:All right.
TREY GERRALD:Thank you, Yelp.
TREY GERRALD:Good job.
VOICEOVER:There's A' reply.
CHELSEY DONN:Okay, but wait.
CHELSEY DONN:So 'I wanted to do that first because 'I wanted you to, 'I wanted you to have the experience
CHELSEY DONN:'I wanted you to experience what A' customer of thrusters would experience
CHELSEY DONN:Right.
CHELSEY DONN:So that was why 'I started there.
CHELSEY DONN:But now 'I just wanna go back and 'I do have the original reply that
CHELSEY DONN:Do we wanna hear it?
CHELSEY DONN:Sorry, that Vinny wrote.
TREY GERRALD:oh.
TREY GERRALD:'I just assumed it was exactly everything but with fluff.
CHELSEY DONN:Now we have the original review that Vinny C wrote that got taken down.
TREY GERRALD:Oh, no.
CHELSEY DONN:Jeff, first off, no one does what you're saying happened.
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah, we replaced A', middle of the road tequila with A' lesser tequila bars.
CHELSEY DONN:Don't actually do that.
CHELSEY DONN:'I made the same amount of money on either A' bottle of shit.
CHELSEY DONN:'I Sell you guys 'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Fact is Jeff, you got A' Casamigos and the bartender treated you like an idiot because
CHELSEY DONN:False thing.
CHELSEY DONN:'I.
CHELSEY DONN:See you have three other one-star Yelp reviews.
CHELSEY DONN:Clearly that is because you are A' complaining butthole person.
CHELSEY DONN:Here's what I'm gonna do.
CHELSEY DONN:I'm A' one-star.
CHELSEY DONN:Yelp your mother.
CHELSEY DONN:Because she made Jeff the Yelp complaining fart guy, baby.
CHELSEY DONN:luck out there in Yelp.
CHELSEY DONN:One star cry, baby idiot.
CHELSEY DONN:Butthole.
CHELSEY DONN:Guyland.
CHELSEY DONN:You suck.
CHELSEY DONN:The world thinks you suck, Jeff.
CHELSEY DONN:Yes.
CHELSEY DONN:The entire world thinks Jeff sucks, like A' fart.
CHELSEY DONN:However, farts are funny.
CHELSEY DONN:Jeff just stinks.
CHELSEY DONN:'I guarantee that the last girl that had sex with you is currently at an A' podium right now.
CHELSEY DONN:'I knew 'I hit rack bottom when 'I woke up having sex with Jeff.
CHELSEY DONN:The one star Yelp reviewer.
CHELSEY DONN:Butthole fart face guy.
TREY GERRALD:what?
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah.
TREY GERRALD:Okay.
TREY GERRALD:That is, that is not the fluff review.
TREY GERRALD:That is A'.
TREY GERRALD:Completely different reply.
CHELSEY DONN:that's right.
TREY GERRALD:Oh, 'I
CHELSEY DONN:do you think about Vinny now?
TREY GERRALD:feel very differently.
CHELSEY DONN:That's right, me too.
TREY GERRALD:Well, okay.
TREY GERRALD:Well, clearly Zo went A' little, like really went too far in that reply.
TREY GERRALD:And now that also makes me think maybe, maybe they do replace it since you're that angered
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah.
CHELSEY DONN:Why are you that like, Irritated by this and 'I understand why Yelp took this down.
CHELSEY DONN:'I feel like this is like borderline harassment, like saying that the entire world hates somebody
CHELSEY DONN:This isn't just like A', little bit like let's make fun of fluff.
CHELSEY DONN:This is really A' line.
TREY GERRALD:Yeah, it feels much different than A' Roast.
TREY GERRALD:This feels like an annihilation, like it feels like you've lost the humor here cuz
TREY GERRALD:Little bit like what they were talking about, the tequila being
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah, and it was such A' short review.
CHELSEY DONN:It wasn't like 'I can understand maybe going to town on somebody if they had written like A'.
CHELSEY DONN:Huge long review about like your integrity and your business and how you never are honest
CHELSEY DONN:But maybe, but like the original review was only like four sentences.
TREY GERRALD:Right.
TREY GERRALD:Also the sentence about whatever shit 'I sell you guys or whatever.
TREY GERRALD:That was also like, wait, what?
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah.
CHELSEY DONN:'I mean he was being sarcastic,
TREY GERRALD:feel playful.
TREY GERRALD:Like 'I don't think it was meant to be evil, but it, it did come across A' little
TREY GERRALD:Like stay fo Like what?
TREY GERRALD:Like, it, it is like really splintering off from the point.
TREY GERRALD:So if I'm considering my original crowning for the edited reply where 'I really felt like, who cares?
TREY GERRALD:It's A' bar called Thrusters.
TREY GERRALD:This actually is like, 'I don't want to get this owner angry.
TREY GERRALD:Like, what if 'I
CHELSEY DONN:Well, that's what I'm wondering, like is it this weird psychology
CHELSEY DONN:Because if they do, this is how I'm gonna reply.
CHELSEY DONN:Because like we've read A' lot of one star reviews on this show Trey, and that even though
CHELSEY DONN:We've read.
CHELSEY DONN:Some really damning reviews.
CHELSEY DONN:Right.
CHELSEY DONN:And this is like putting it out there sort of plainly, which 'I guess can be damning,
TREY GERRALD:Which like 'I didn't even say at the time, but like 'I
TREY GERRALD:That's not that negative.
TREY GERRALD:Like to say someone was A' Dick, you know, 'I, 'I don't know 'I.
TREY GERRALD:It does make me think that Zo could have used an edit or, or like
TREY GERRALD:Uh, the approach is fun.
TREY GERRALD:Let's stick with the fun approach, but let's, uh, take away the stuff about the mom and
TREY GERRALD:Like all of that's A'.
TREY GERRALD:It does feel A' little extreme in relation to what the original review was.
TREY GERRALD:No wonder it went viral.
CHELSEY DONN:totally.
CHELSEY DONN:By the way, 'I just wanna give quick credit to sour beef hoop.
CHELSEY DONN:Who posted this review on Reddit?
TREY GERRALD:It is funny to me though that Vinny points out that like Casamigos
TREY GERRALD:Like that is really funny.
TREY GERRALD:That's really funny to me.
TREY GERRALD:Okay, so like, should we crown this original reply?
CHELSEY DONN:Yes.
CHELSEY DONN:'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Think let's crown it.
TREY GERRALD:Okay.
TREY GERRALD:'I.
VOICEOVER:The Queens are Tabulating
VOICEOVER:to A' school.
CHELSEY DONN:Okay, I'm holding up one Crown Trey's holding up A' Half Crown.
CHELSEY DONN:Why
TREY GERRALD:'I am just 'I.
TREY GERRALD:Don't know it.
TREY GERRALD:Just now this R, this just puts A' sour taste in my mouth like I'm sour beef hoop person here.
TREY GERRALD:Like it doesn't liken me to the business owner.
TREY GERRALD:It makes me think like, what the fuck?
TREY GERRALD:So 'I think it has A' negative impact and so therefore 'I can only do A' half crown.
TREY GERRALD:Cuz you're not helping the case here.
TREY GERRALD:Like you've gone A'.
TREY GERRALD:Little extreme.
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah, you got off the rails.
TREY GERRALD:Why did you say one?
CHELSEY DONN:'I said one.
CHELSEY DONN:It did go viral.
CHELSEY DONN:You know, people did read it.
CHELSEY DONN:It, it like made some sort of
TREY GERRALD:the wrong reasons.
CHELSEY DONN:'I.
CHELSEY DONN:Yeah, 'I guess for the wrong reasons.
CHELSEY DONN:That's why I'm like, I'm 'I shouldn't maybe give that credit to Vinny, but like 'I,
CHELSEY DONN:'I think they really could have used A' friend in this moment, or
CHELSEY DONN:'I also think like Vinny's, like obsessed with farts and butt holes and
CHELSEY DONN:And even for thrusters, 'I felt like, you know, Vinny took it too far.
CHELSEY DONN:So 'I gave A' Crown maybe more like A' half Crown, if I'm not factoring in
CHELSEY DONN:But no Buk, this was A' really like flip it in, reverse it kind of episode Trey.
TREY GERRALD:This was interesting.
TREY GERRALD:I'm glad you found this on Reddit.
TREY GERRALD:Like that's an interesting thing, like we should consider that more in the
CHELSEY DONN:'I know 'I don't usually do it cuz I'm like, is it cheating?
CHELSEY DONN:You know, 'I, but 'I.
CHELSEY DONN:'I wanna like really do the on the ground research for you.
CHELSEY DONN:But also there's so many people on Reddit and 'I feel like as long as we're giving credit to those
TREY GERRALD:Yes, and thank you ChelseyBD.
TREY GERRALD:Great choice Thrusts
