Okay, so some history of the Cheesecake Factory, just so we cover up all these facts. Oscar and Evelyn Overton, their dreams to create a successful business. And it was in the late 1940s that she opened a small cheesecake shop in Detroit. That's where it all started. In order to raise her two small children, Dave and Renee, Evelyn chose to put off her dream and gave up the shop.
She moved her baking to a kitchen in her basement and continued to supply cakes to several of the best local restaurants. In 71, with the kids out of the house and her and her husband now in their early 50s, they decided to move their cheesecake business out of the basement and to Los Angeles. And there in LA, they opened a 700 square foot store, the Cheesecake Factory.
That's where it all started, 70s. And from there, it just got bigger and bigger, and they franchised, and now it's everywhere.
Yeah. Yeah, there is that drive, and I think... I'm wondering how that is sort of encoded into your DNA, because I feel like... Yeah, I'd be happy with that shop. It's like, oh my God, I run this thing. But here it's like expand, get more, get bigger.
The small thing. Yeah. That's interesting, isn't it? Because my idea of that feeling like a good idea is it's like... wanting to... Maybe it is that. It's wanting to spread it. Get it to more people. Get it to different audiences that shouldn't have it already. And that's maybe what it's like spreading Cheesecake Factory around.
wanting to go eat at that place because i also think if you if i wasn't doing the show with you like you know this about me like you have had to prod me to do things like when you're talking about going on youtube i think my original response was like oh you know youtubers kind of i was just like like shooting with camera lights being visuals it just seems so hard and this whole time and same with the live shows like you like let's do live shows my initial reaction was
this seems hard and scary and you were like no it's fun and it can be better and more like different layers to what the show is so that's your americanness like prodding my sort of dragging my kiwi corpse along and like pushing me on stage but i've appreciated it it's like i wouldn't do that without you All right, maybe I'm slowly learning the American ways. Okay, what else did I learn?
I came across a sort of a horrible side dish of a story. New Jersey Cheesecake Factory workers OD'd were playing Russian roulette was the headline.
No, so the Russian roulette was talking about how they were doing a lot of cocaine. And I just thought this was another very American thing because if you do cocaine in America, my understanding is big chance it's laced with fentanyl. And that's how they overdosed. I don't mean to bring the tone down, but I just thought, what an American thing. These happy Cheesecake Factory workers.
Doing coke and eating cheesecake. Doing coke and cheesecake and then just fentanyl and everything at the moment, which is probably yet another topic we should dive into at some point. Another sort of awful story, but incredible headline that I related to and just how I felt after I'd eaten there, my heart literally exploded on a date at the Cheesecake Factory. Pretty good headline.
This is from December 24, when Stephanie Anderson went on a dinner date with a potential new partner. I like how they phrase that. Who else are you going to go on a date with? She never expected that her heart would literally explode. And I should say this is from the Daily Mail, which isn't the classiest newspaper.
Some podcaster came across it and was like, I'm going to read this. The 39-year-old met up with the man she was seeing at the Cheesecake Factory in Salt Lake City, Utah.
She's seeing him. When she began expecting intense pain in her jaw. She initially brushed it off, but as the pair waited on that cheesecake, the pain began spreading to her collarbone, growing worse by the minute. The mother of three was in agony when her date rang the emergency services for help.
paramedics arrived and discovered that the biggest artery from her heart had ruptured, causing the blood to stop pumping around her body. She was rushed to emergency open-heart surgery. They removed the damaged blood vessel and replaced it with a synthetic tube.
I would summarize this by saying it's the ultimate clickbait because it didn't really have anything to do with the fact she was eating like cheesecake. It was purely a location and someone thought we can turn this into a story. But I wanted to give shout out to that headline because it got your attention. It got my attention and did feel pretty intense eating there.
I just wanted to follow that up with what I mentioned in the intro to this episode. Back in 2014, it was deemed the unhealthiest US eatery. A watchdog group called the Center for Science in the Public Interest has named the chain as the winner of the Extreme Eating Survey. noting that three of the country's nine most calorie-heavy dishes are served at the Cheesecake Factory.
I mean, should we give them credit for that? The fact they did it, they're not trying to hide it.
