So, you're doing the challenge I hear?
Yes, I'm doing the Fat Boy Challenge.
Oh, awesome.
Alright, let's see what Punta Gorda has in store for us this fine morning.
We're at Jonsky's House of Breakfast, which is a cool name for an eatery, I'm sure you'll agree.
I'm having a bash at this thing, the Fat Boy Breakfast Challenge.
Recklessly non-PC, you gotta love it.
Now, I didn't tell them that I was coming, and 8.30 on a Saturday is pretty much prime time for breakfast in America.
That's a song by Supertramp, isn't it?
Take a look at my girlfriend.
Hi.
Hi, how are you?
I'm good, thank you. I came to do your Fat Boy Challenge.
I make YouTube videos for a job, is that okay?
Yeah, of course.
Thank you very much.
I'm here to do the Fat Boy Challenge.
This one's okay?
Yeah.
Lots of eyes on me around here.
Oh yeah, just wait.
Thank you very much.
Alright, so our rules are you got 20 minutes, you eat two Fat Boys, orange juice and a milk.
Yeah.
We'll be here to cheer you on, it's kind of like a big deal here.
Yeah?
Yeah.
We actually have a wall of fame back there.
Alright.
If you want to take a gander at that while you wait for your Fat Boy, we'll get you started.
I'll take a look.
Would you like something to drink?
I would love some water, please.
Some water? Okay.
Yeah, you guys say water, right?
Water.
Alright, so you can order the regular Fat Boy breakfast, which is an extra large order of country potatoes topped with sausage, bacon, eggs and smothered with Big Daddy's sausage gravy.
But if you want to do the challenge, you've got to eat two of those inside 20 minutes.
Plus a glass of milk, apparently.
And an orange juice.
A glass of milk and an orange juice?
Yes.
Alright, well I'll be hydrated, nothing else.
That's right.
Let's go see who's completed the Fat Boy challenge.
Let's have a look at the wall of fame.
Alright, this is it, this is the wall of fame.
This is a pretty high-end wall of fame, actually.
Look, you get framed pictures up here.
Quite a few people seem to have done it.
I wonder if this is a big one.
Does that have any increased significance?
Ah, right, Mike.
Mike Hauer was the first inductee to the Fat Boy challenge wall of fame.
He blazed the trail, made it possible for the rest of us.
I might not actually do it yet.
Hi, everyone.
Rainfall. Rainfall.
I know.
We're coming, we're coming.
So you have time to let it cool down.
Right.
You just gotta let us know and we'll start the timer, okay?
Cool. Alright, yeah.
What do you think? You think I got it?
Hey, you got it.
Yeah?
What's your time frame?
20 minutes.
20 minutes?
Yeah.
You have to do both of them?
Yeah.
So I'm at Jonsky's House of Breakfast today, which is in Punta Gorda in Florida.
And I'm taking on their Fat Boy challenge, which is two of their Fat Boy breakfasts.
And it's just bacon, sausage.
I'm ready.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Go, yeah.
Alright.
Thank you.
Yeah, 20 minutes.
We're gonna need it.
What's up, everyone?
Welcome back to the episode.
We're at Jonsky's House of Breakfast in Punta Gorda, Florida today.
Doing battle with their legendary, if not particularly sensibly named, Fat Boy challenge.
Oh.
Punchy gravy.
Yeah, you know it.
I can drink this stuff.
I mean, maybe drink isn't the right word since it is pretty thick.
But you know what I mean.
Lots of onlookers today.
Plenty of smiles too.
That's one way of putting it.
Yeah, it's just paradoxical that I'm taking up what appears to be a table for six.
Meaning there's a bit of a queue forming.
But therein, providing a bit of light entertainment for the people waiting in the queue.
I'll try to be quick.
I should wipe my beard down.
There's a lot of people watching.
Switching to the spoon for now.
Yeah, it's funny that because of the way it's presented.
Topped with, frankly, obscene amounts of gravy.
You can't really tell what's under there.
So it's hard to know what utensil is most practical.
Crowd's still looking reasonably well entertained though.
As you can see, we're almost done with breakfast one.
And we've got, what, about three quarters of the allotted time remaining.
So, it's looking good so far.
Yeah, you're right, you're right, you're right.
Oh, this gravy is unbelievable.
Is that plate clean enough?
Yeah?
Alright, one down, one to go.
You've still got 14 minutes, Adam.
14 minutes.
Alright.
Should probably start on the orange juice.
Refreshing.
Was that okay?
Yeah.
I think I know why they call this thing the Fat Boy now.
Because of the gradual tightening sensation in your chest.
We've still got the milk and orange juice to go, actually.
Can't forget those because you do need to finish them in order to claim victory.
Good luck, Adam. Finish strong.
Thank you.
Alright, Adam, you've got less than 10 minutes now.
Oh, less than 10 minutes.
Alright, let's cheer Adam on. He's got less than 10 minutes.
I think the second one's bigger.
I don't believe it.
I've seen it look a great deal worse, believe me.
Anyway, we're almost done now.
Just a few more mouthfuls away from claiming what is actually a very jazzy winner's shirt
and a framed picture on that wall of fame over there.
Hope you enjoyed it.
And as always, I'll catch you on the next one.
Alright, this has been Mixed Food and that was Jonski's Fat Boy Challenge.
Was that good?
Wow. Thank you.
With five and a half minutes. Good job, buddy.
Thank you. Thanks.
Oh, thank you very much. You said I would do it.
Yeah, I get a picture on the wall.
Oh, I'm sorry you had to see that. Thank you.
Oh no, it was a lot of fun.
I don't know if you want to touch that.
Thank you. Thanks.
That looks like a good one.
That's cool. Thank you very much, man.
Do you have a small?
I do.
Yeah? In that case, a small.
Oh, I'll take a pink, please.
I really want to get dessert because I've seen some desserts coming out.
But there's so many people waiting.
I can't. I'll get some on the way home.
I swear.
Oh, thank you very much.
In a Ziploc bag, no less, too.
I love it.
Are you watching one of my videos?
That was in Sweden.
Yeah, yeah. It's like seven pounds of hamburgers.
Bye-bye.
Thank you.
Appreciate it.
See you later.
It was really nice to meet you. Thanks for having me.
She had a sexy voice.
Like a young Kathleen Turner.
You know, like the 40 Marlborough a day voice.
Now, if you're going to ask me if I stopped at a petrol station
to get an oatmeal cream pie for the journey home,
then let me see if you'd bother.
I stopped at a petrol station to get an oatmeal cream pie for the journey home.
Love these things.
Not really sure why, since the cream in them
actually seems more molecularly similar to shaving foam,
but they are addictive.
Look at that.
Even better when they're all mushed together.
500 calories in one of these.
America.
Greatest country on earth.
No, I'm just kidding.
But they've got good snacks.
Onward.
500 calories.
What on earth?
How is that possible?
The million dollar question.
Did it taste good?
Well, it was delicious.
You should order one.
I think.
Maybe your dad would be mad at me for saying that.
I don't think my stomach's big enough.
Maybe when you get older.
