0:32
known as the man that took the place of
0:34
John F
0:44
Kennedy quick little side note we were
0:44
told by security it's best not to park
0:46
here so we have to move the RV parking
0:48
situation has been handled and check
0:50
this out it is an 18 ton replica of the
0:54
micad it's pretty cool I can't put that
0:57
on top of Large Marge though it it would
0:59
crush it would Crusher I honestly had no
1:01
idea that the onion was an actual
1:04
legitimate printed newspaper he said yes
1:07
he said why didn't you do it he said
1:10
doctor said I got home and I considered
1:14
it and I just
1:17
decided that I like what I dranks much
1:19
better than what I
1:23
heard then he took her hand and looked
1:26
at where was measuring
1:39
said are you getting the Johnson
1:39
treatment Jacob I'm getting the full
1:41
Johnson treatment they have the Bible he
1:43
was sworn in on as well as the suit he
1:48
was wearing during the assassination of
1:52
JFK and what he was wearing on Air Force
1:55
One when he became the president behind
1:58
this case is the c cards that he changed
2:01
and handw wrote what he wanted to say on
2:05
that memorable day look at that that's
2:08
that's his handwriting I will do my
2:11
best that is all I can do just imagine
2:17
later in the day after your husband is
2:20
killed you have to stand next to another
2:23
man still grieving as he has sworn in to
2:27
office theal office itself is located In
2:30
The West Wing of the executive Mansion
2:32
built in 1902 it has been occupied by
2:35
every president since Theodore Roosevelt
2:37
the desk is the one Mr Johnson worked at
2:39
from the time he served in the United
2:40
States Senate and through the White
2:42
House years it generally appeared this
2:44
way with considerable material stacked
2:47
and waiting for his attention the view
2:48
of downtown Austin there on the skyline
2:51
and this the view of the city is the
2:55
actual furniture from Ladybird Johnson
2:58
the first ladies office the more I look
3:01
at this photo it really makes me wonder
3:03
why did Jackie Onasis really need to be
3:07
standing there like that's just I can't
3:09
imagine now heading into an area called
3:12
Heartland
3:18
Plaza I'm racing this train but I think
3:18
it's winning cuz I can't drive very fast
3:21
through a parking lot it's frowned upon
3:23
there's a zebra in front of us a legit
3:27
zebra oh wait that's a truck I was very
3:30
confused for a second always a challenge
3:33
finding a place to park in a busy area
3:37
we chose a spot right here next to this
3:39
community garden got about a half mile
3:41
walk that way to the next
3:51
destination I don't know about you I'm
3:51
getting kind of hungry me
3:54
to
3:55
barbecue agreed it is slightly more
3:58
built up than was in
4:01
1986 but right over here tucked away
4:04
under that building is a place called
4:06
the meane cat bar but you might remember
4:09
it as the chainsaw store in the sequel
4:12
to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre when Toby
4:15
Hooper the director of the first one
4:16
decided to make a part two he wanted to
4:19
do something a little more campy a
4:20
little more comical and this is the spot
4:23
where Dennis Hopper did a little
4:25
shopping since filming they have
4:26
extended the building the original
4:28
facade was this way and they have
4:31
lengthened it just a little bit and they
4:34
have Koozies it's funny to think about
4:36
but before they tore this wall out to
4:38
extend the building this is the room
4:40
where Hopper went in wielding the
4:49
chainsaws the chunk of the tree yeah wow
4:49
so that was the tree that he was like
4:50
hacking into with the chainsaw yeah that
4:53
is amazing in the scene the log is out
4:56
front and he is hacking into this thing
4:58
like a beast even have the original
5:00
cutright chainsaw sign that was used in
5:03
the movie hanging out front now it's
5:05
indoors behind those antlers are we
5:07
going to eat or what I thought you'd
5:09
never ask the name of the actual
5:11
barbecue place is stubs which there are
5:13
a few locations around Austin and I got
5:16
potato salad and they actually had
5:18
pulled pork which is kind of rare for
5:21
Texas because it's known for their beef
5:23
and I got some sort of spinach casserole
5:27
Jacob opted for the three meat oh look
5:31
it's got like a little jalapenos it's a
5:32
jalapeno sausage this is chopped beef
5:35
and that is chopped pork like The Best
5:37
of Both
5:46
Worlds the room is very tucked away back
5:46
here in the corner kind of wouldn't even
5:48
know it was here unless you walked
5:49
through the door they even have some
5:50
photos on the wall back when it used to
5:53
be the business it was an actual
5:56
establishment so there really wasn't any
5:58
set dressing for the mov Movie awesome
6:00
while I finish my sweet tea give me your
6:02
review all right so uh third day of the
6:06
7-Day barbecue experiment we actually
6:08
found a place that has pull pork so
6:13
that's what I had so after having two
6:14
days of brisket having a little bit of
6:16
pulled pork it almost felt like a light
6:18
little
6:18
treat what did you think of the spinach
6:22
dip stuff that they had that was super
6:24
good but it had this really intense
6:27
spiciness way too spicy I only ate Maybe
6:29
third of it in fact I didn't even finish
6:31
the whole meal because a lot of it had a
6:33
little kick to it I am going to give
6:36
this place a seven first day 7.5
6:39
yesterday is 6.5 I'm going to give the
6:42
me ey cat bar with stub's barbecue which
6:45
are four stubs locations around Austin
6:47
it's an Austin based barbecue place this
6:49
one just so happens to be inside that
6:51
building I'm going to give it a seven
6:54
about you I don't want to agree with you
6:56
too much but I think a seven is fair cuz
6:59
I do I don't think that first day that
7:01
brisket tough but fair that that first
7:03
day brisket has yet to be beat that was
7:06
incredible day one is still my favorite
7:08
for sure I think that's still winning
7:09
out all in all though I would eat here
7:12
again it's also based on Johnny Cash
7:15
Johnny Cash song or maybe something
7:17
Johnny Cash mentioned there's a lot of
7:19
pictures of Johnny Cash flipping the
7:21
bird in there which is always a good
7:24
thing when you're chowing down on some
7:26
BB good to be flipping the bird and one
7:28
last thing this is where he was hacking
7:30
into that piece of wood and the shop
7:32
owner was very excited up on the porch
7:35
my kid
7:36
bananas if you watch the movie back he
7:39
actually says my kid banana great
7:41
imitation he nailed it it's almost as if
7:44

7:48

this this is it the elusive Jackalope
9:13
that Dave coer made very popular on
9:17
America's Funniest whoa what is that
9:21
thing this concrete was pulled out of a
9:23
track from a Yeti it's the same creature
9:25
on the matter horn I found him I'm
9:29
always always fascinated by these
9:30
shrunken heads that one's exposed but
9:34
that one is inside a glass container a
9:36
lot of different exhibits on Bigfoot and
9:40
Sasquatches and all the different molds
9:43
from all the different feet prints that
9:44
they found I think he might be looking
9:47
for John Lithgow in the mid 1800s there
9:50
was a man by the name of Joseph Merrick
9:53
and he was labeled The Elephant Man a
9:56
two-headed chicken and check this out
10:00
a real cyclops Pig I'm having my fortune
10:08
toll he telling my fortune have a wish
10:11
in your
10:13
heart is
10:16
strong do not Afra your wish will be
10:28
granted put your arm around him like
10:28
you've been drinking together for a
10:29
while I'll BR out that's right
10:32
say are you having a good time I'm
10:35
having a blast if anybody else tried
10:37
this one little tap would knock them
10:39
right out when I do it as long as I keep
10:41
that spark moving so it can't burn me
10:44
I'm totally fine not fireproof though
10:47
that's a whole different thing it
10:49
wouldn't be suicide for most anybody
10:51
else if they up and grab the bear wire
10:54
when I do it as long as I squeeze tight
10:56
so there's no sparks to burn me I can
10:58
hold this for as long as I want to and
11:00
never even gets uncomfortable okay set
11:02
the metal in the ball on my
11:05
palm there we are nice thank you yeah
11:09
most likely reason behind this is I've
11:10
got a chemical imbalance it gives my
11:12
skin a lot more electrical resistance
11:14
than most folks so instead of the
11:16
current that's going right into me and
11:17
stopping my heart or giving me a stroke
11:19
like you expected to goes more around
11:21
the Outer Perimeter this time of year
11:24

12:50
of traffic what's his name that's smokey

12:56
doing
12:57
Lucas what's up look at this 1979 he
13:00
started building
13:02
this the
13:04
backyard of this house is something
13:07
called the
13:09
Cathedral of junk kind of
13:12
resembles a mountain
13:14
or a
13:16
volcano of sorts there are lots of
13:19
different
13:21
hallways and corridors and
13:31
stairways this this is incredible we got
13:31
pretty lucky you were not allowed on his
13:35
property unless you have an appointment
13:36
but we pulled up and parked and he just
13:39
so happened to be out in the yard and he
13:41
let us come in there doesn't really seem
13:42
to be a rhyme or a
13:45
reason to what he will put or won't
13:49
put inside here it's a little bit of
13:52
everything from car
13:54
speakers to old video cameras
14:00
wedged
14:01
in to a cow dog head of some
14:06
sort a little
14:14
bit of everything I feel like sitting on
14:14
the Iron
14:16
Throne the Iron Throne Game of Throne Oh
14:21
Oh I thought you were saying like maybe
14:22
a porcelain Throne that would be like a
14:23
Al Bundy move iron throne means you're a
14:26
king I find it very interesting that
14:28
this is just in a random backyard there
14:33
are neighbors and houses on all sides of
14:37
this I wonder what they think of this
14:41
structure if you look closely there is a
14:43
motorcycle wedged in there and a yield
14:46
sign and when you go down that little
14:48
pathway all kind of stuff you could
14:50
spend hours in here without ever seeing
14:53
everything in the little nooks and
14:55
crannies bicycle tires license plates
14:59
rear view mirrors the gun used in the
15:03
NES classic game duck hunt and wa old
15:09
school trolls way before YouTube there's
15:12
even a second floor to it just walk up
15:16
these stairs that are embedded with
15:18
tools wrenches and other
15:22
accessories climb towards the top in a
15:26
winding Circle I'm guessing this is SA
15:29
to walk on at least I'm holding on to
15:30
this tube so it must be
15:38
okay you will notice there is a seat
15:42
that you can sit in it looks a little
15:45
bit flimsy but rest assured if you sit
15:49
here you have made it I'm the king of
15:52
the
16:00
mountain the King of the mountain you do
16:00
not want to go faster than 20 M an hour
16:03
however that is the speed limit isn't
16:07
that right
16:08
Frosty there are so many different ways
16:12
you can travel it's like a maze or a
16:16
Labyrinth of sorts and it appears to be
16:20
right over in here some sort of secret
16:24
hangout room pretty amazing yes you know
