For a spooky October episode, the guys confront a soulless place where time stands still. A liminal space where corporate ghosts and Republican secretaries go thump in the day. A place that shouldn't exist and yet, somehow does. A place with absolutely ghoulish bagels and a name that evokes bodily fluids. Call the exorcist. The bagel boys are sending you BACK TO HELL.

The guys endure shitty bagels to reveal the truth about this classic rivalry. Which terrible place for bagels has the best bagel? The answer probably won't surprise you, but it did surprise Sam. Plus bagel bites, scrotox, schmear campaign tattoos, and Jake hoping this pod will never take off.

Sam has a bad time at Foxtrot and leaves a 1 star review on Google. Is Austin dying? Rosen's wholesale bagels are still killing it somehow. If you make toasts in your restaurant, stop bogarting those toppings and let us put them on a bagel.
