that s encouraging. i offer something to my producer and he goes literally running. josh: i did not eat all the weird things tony ate. i ate a lot of things that tony didn t want to eat. [ laughter ] helen: on the rare occasion, tony would offer us some some treats. [ laughter ] anthony: helen, do you like this stuff? helen: no, i ve never had it. anthony: there you go, helen. come on. let s see. helen: we were filming a scene at pojangmacha and they had silk worm stew. anthony: she hasn t been here since she s 4-years old. really? anthony: yeah. helen: the crew obvious meant a lot to him. yeah, it was it was a trip i won t forget, you know? we were his best friends. we had amazing conversations
conversation one way or the other, get him to say something, it was a wrap. i mean, it was like you get the dagger eyes. jared: or like the inevitable wides, which essentially meant that the scene s over. anthony: go wide. wanto go wide? do you want to go wide? yeah, go wide. toby: he called it. tony just called it. tom: well, food was a brilliant device because interview can just feel awkward or formal. where as if you share a al with somebody, it opens up so many doors. nick: the food that we ate on the road helen: yeah, sometimes we got to eat incredible things. mo: this is the number one question i get at parties did you eat all the stuff that tony ate? nick: it was never awful. it could be weird. erik: skinned lamb head. jared: were sheep balls really that good? jerry: boar innards. nick: you may throw-up a little bit in your mouth while trying to get it down, but it was never awful.
mo: i definitely did not eat all the stuff that tony ate. anthony: ooh, liver sandwich. that s encouraging. i offer something to my producer and he goes literally running. josh: i did not eat all the weird things tony ate. i ate a lot of things that tony didn t want to eat. [ laughter ] helen: on the rare occasion, tony would offer us some some treats. [ laughter ] anthony: helen, do you like this stuff? helen: no, i ve never had it. anthony: there you go, helen. come on. let s see. helen: we were filming a scene at pojangmacha and they had silk worm stew. anthony: she hasn t been here since she s 4-years old. really? anthony: yeah. helen: the crew obvious meant a lot to him. yeah, it was it was a trip i won t forget, you know? jerry: we were his best friends.
tom: we decided to visit the tallest building in iran. erik: within a minute or two, we were completely crushed by this sandstorm, obviously ruining the scene, we re all running inside. anthony: onchocerciasis, aka river blindness. steed: the chance of like a government shutting me down. lydia: earthquake, train wreck. tom: the whole building starts moving like this. pieces of the roof ripping off. step away from the glass. anthony: jaundice, liver function problems, and something called man flu. josh: we landed on the ground and i met the fixer. she said, great to meet you guys. also, josh, everyone has cancelled. mo: oh, and we got all our gear stolen. josh: there was something about parts unknown, and i think it was just the nature of the show, that embraced chaos. tom: if there wasn t this element of chaos and intensity to the shoots, then i don t know, there was some intangible energy that came from that. chris: without a doubt, we succeeded at the ab
steed: so what i love about this scene is, again, tony is truly experiencing something new and unexpected. tony: you know what i know? i don t want the waffles at the waffle house. sean: [ bleep ] man. you have to have tony: waffles? sean: first thing you have: pecan waffle. tony: really? chris: you get it in many episodes, but this one in particular, that was very, very authentic tony. tony: you know what umami means in japanese? actually? literally it means i will [ bleep ] your [ bleep ] for a bite of that burger.
