[BONUS] Debate Me, Coward! Ep. 1 - "Pepperoni does not belong on pizza"

Put the pepperoni under the cheese.

Dakota Combs

I’ve actually been saying pepperoni is shit for years. It’s like they took meat and made it bad. It’s so processed and gross and doesn’t have the proper delicious spice of actual salami. Sure there’s good pepperoni but there’s nothing pepperoni does that another meat couldn’t do better. The only reason pepperoni pizza is popular is because it looks appetizing and its existence has propagated.

Skye the Bi

Thank god other people have these types of ‘discussions’ 😂😂

Kim Barbaria

So I live in southernb) france, 2 hours from the italien border since 2003 and I have only had 1 pizzeria that proposed pepperoni as a topping ingredient. Chorizo is the closest popular option. As an ex-brooklynite I miss thin crust with italien sauvage and mushrooms, but there is good traditional woodstove pizza here.

Vicki Lenoir

Okay but Freddie is right

Be That As It Jay (Crab Man)

i'm vegetarian, and even i want pepperoni on my pizza

Evrin Wolfe

I come back to this series a lot when I’m really stressed. There is something so bizarrely soothing about listening to y’all scream at each other for a half hour.

Keira Jade

lol this is hilarious 😂

Franco Rivas

A marvellous listening experience

uuuuh Clara

I love this, this is precisely how I argue

uuuuh Clara

This was fantastic. Never had so much fun listening to two people be so wrong :)

Kai and Lauren S.

I randomly found this, and 2 people just vehemently discussing a subject rationally explaining their opinions based on a logic that makes sense, is something I enjoy a lot. I enjoy talking to people with explicit opinions that they can explain in exact detail. I too am like that. This is so much fun to listen to!

"That whole pickle's coming in my mouth" - Matt Arnold

Jack MGill

Here are my thoughts on it! Pepperoni does not just go on pizza. When you get a cracker plate often Pepperoni is included. Also as some one who makes 125 sandwiches a day for homeless people...I have used Pepperoni on sandwiches too it it's always a hit

James Medina

One of the best slice of pepperoni pizza I've ever had was at lazarros in Manhattan. Because they julienne the pepperoni.

Charlie

I hate pepperoni and Matt still took the W here

Ston Rampler

No Pepperoni. Yucky 🤮

Xavier Centina

nah Freddie right, i had a pep pizza from dominos and that shit fucked me up badd for hours, never again

Atheraz

Pepperoni and too much grease are awful, team Freddy!

sunnybearboi

Freddy ATE AND LEFT NO LEFTOVERS

Lindsay Hollmann

I lived in Italy for 14 years and I would like to say, I am appalled at the audacity of Freddy's statment

Jori nmyway

Holy shit. Found this years too late and it’s amazing. Makes me think of how I argue with my friends!

Ty Vuong

Now, hear me out. Pizza doesn't belong on plates.

withinmyself

Man, I am so glad I joined patreon for such premium content.

withinmyself

Freddy is right. Pepperoni is disgusting. I have spoken.

James King

As someone who’s been a pizza chef and was a sous chef at another pizza place, no we don’t blot the pizzas and pepperoni an overrated pizza topping. I’d rather have pepperoni on a sandwich than on a pizza

Devon Willingham

Pepperoni 👎

Paul Litch

This was just madness.

SpeissAutarr

Pepperoni all day baby

Bradly Gutierrez

The whole thing is obviously a matter of opinion but I feel like Freddie has a point. Pepperoni is grossly overrated and there have been many a time that I have been annoyed by a peice of pepperoni pulling off all the cheese and other toppings just leaving a soggy, marinara soaked flatbread behind.

WpnizedTomato

God thank you Freddie pepperoni is so unappetizing

Talmon Glidden

I do agree with sausage being better not gonna lie. 🤣

Alex McCaull

I googled chicago pizza and it just looks like a quiche??

Risotto

Why would anyone need to dap the grease off of their food 😭 and wth is deep fried pizza 😭😭 what's happening in america 💀

Risotto

I’m convinced that there’s something wrong with Freddie’s brain lmao

Jake Lee

I love them going on about how nothing other than pizza, even though a lot of delicious Italian subs, have pepperoni.

Mathew Staib

I don't think I would want to listen to this but I'm with Freddy screw peperoni!

Greek Pantheon Wrangler

reminds me of my high school friend group

Bee Ami

I’ve never liked pepperoni on pizza!!! And never understood why people liked it. Sausage is a thousand times better

Jenna Holmes

Cupping pepperoni is awesome! It gets nice and crispy.

Rob Gibbons

Thanks a lot. It’s 8:30 in the morning and there’s nothing more I want in life than a pepperoni pizza 😂

Syndicate Mojo

Quoting Matt here “that whole pickles coming in my mouth”🤨🤨 Whatchu mean?

TDub Miner

Matt is 100% right to the point that it's funny hearing him try to comprehend Freddie's absurdity. A better hot take would be go the opposite pole: pepperoni is the unsung hero of pizza.

Andrew MacDonald

Freddie's right tho 😂

Aluwa

I don't even eat pepperoni pizza but this made me crave it so bad

Ryan DeVault

I have always hated pepperoni my entire life, it is genuinely gross imo

Sky_Bee

Matt took the show

Michael Valdivia

I love Matt but Freddie is 100% right

Kayla Price

Metal intro

ShrimpThePimp

Where I'm from peperoni is cut up into small match sticks which completely solves the issue Freddy has about it not cutting and claims that no one has figured out how to prepare it so it cuts properly on the pizza. The only reason it doesn't cut properly is because of the casings are so tough, when they are cut into sticks the casings are no longer causing that issue.

Eric Hyatt

Freddie makes a lot of good points like fuck pepperoni. I’ll eat it but like, it literally does nothing for me it doesn’t even really have its own distinct flavor either. I’m the lover of sausage and mushrooms on my pizza instead cause you can actually taste that shit. I TOLERATE pepperoni, and my brothers are the same too. We rather have that supreme pizza, but an always safe choice if no one can agree on toppings is pepperoni cause we’re all just indifferent to it

Adrien

Mid episode I just hear “ASWAPADOOPAFBAHSKA NAPKIN!”

ace of diamonds

Seriously debating chopping up pepperoni on my next pizza, thanks Freddie! Also, y'all are sleeping on pepperoni rolls! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepperoni_roll

Stephen Martinez

I've always agreed with pepperoni not belonging in pizza, personally because of a flavor balancing issue. So I was right with Freddie, UNTIL! He said bacon needs to be crispy

Karma gray

Every time Matt brought up how pepperoni only belongs on pizza, it stays in its corner where it belongs, etc., I just laughed. As someone from appalachia, pepperoni does NOT stay in its corner. We add those beautiful, greasy discs to so, so, SO many things besides pizza.

hi hungry, I'm Beck

Me, putting Pepperoni on Sandwiches 😂

Jared Martin

Now I know why Anthony sent you two on a side quest instead of going to the Mayoral debate in season 2.

jonathan Beaton

Oh my word, diced is so amazing and I forgot that until I read this comment

Emily Fluty

I'm with Freddie

Jackie Wille

Matt 100% correct. Freddie 100% sad life.

Matt Matt

I agree with Freddie, that the pepperoni can sometimes be annoying, but it's not as bad as he said it was

O

The fact they lean so much on the grease/napkin thing is so infuriating, I never had fat on my pizza outside of the US, this is not a pepperoni issue

Simon P

Freddie's 100% right, diced pepperoni is the only way to have it on pizza.

Michael Miller

This was so hard to listen too.

Kaiju Waifu and Husband Charms

I was eating a pepperoni pizza while listening to this 😂

Davien Beltran

I like pineapple on my pizza

Ben Wertenberger

I wish I could “like” this harder

J. Maxwell Whitehead

As a former pizza chef i did indeed dab peoples pizza then put the pizza back in a pizze oven to have the cheese come back out a perfect golden. Yes many of those pizzas were covered in pepperoni. I lived in texas and was told to throw the pepoproni onto the pizza by the handfuls. Upon exiting the pizza oven the first time. Every pizza would have so much grease. But by the process of taking oil of pizza with a few clean papertowels and then hit the top of the pizza with more heat the pizza would be moist l, not oily and great for people to consume.

Gabe Tharpe

I’ve worked at 3 pizza places and let me tell you how shitty pepperoni is and how I hate placing pepperoni on pizzas and I myself don’t like pepperoni pizza. But pizza is my job and I can tell you I agree with Freddie

Cephas Lee

Like with most arguments, there's a middle ground here. I agree with Freddie that grease pools are gross, but not all pepperoni cups. If we're talking high school cafeteria pizza, yes it's gross. But I've had good ones with pepperoni, and one place I go to places them under the cheese, so they don't curl up. Pepperoni is better used as part of a charcuterie plate/board, but it's fine to be on a pizza (when it doesn't pool up the grease).

Gumbercules

all of Freddie’s points are negated if you fold the pizza like an true american.

actuallyabby

Literally even listening to the descriptions of the pepperoni grease pools, which are the most disgusting shit ever, made me queasy, so I'm afraid Matt doesn't have a leg to stand on in that element of the argument

Kiera Conrad

I listened to Freddie's opinion on popcorn first and I double down on Freddie being my current favourite.

Lucia Wilson

Alright. I am absolutely the Freddie here and have felt like such a psychopath for being so specific about pepperoni on pizza.

Sydney Sontag

I have never been so delighted and anxious willingly at the same time. Interested to hear some bad takes about popcorn next.

R0$3YY

This was so funny pls more pointless debates

Honeybeef

Same here Cove! I cannot believe I have missed this first one, I hope the debates continue!

NK

Same! I was like, if only they knew what a pepperoni roll was and the true debate about whether a pepperoni roll is still a pepperoni roll if it has cheese and or dipping sauce!

Angela Shrader

when seeing the release of the second one i found out this is a thing that exists and i'm so incredibly happy

Cove

I fuckin love this and I’m 100% with Freddy!

Abe Verdi

Freddy you are VALID and you are RIGHT

Ariana Phillips

This was the best thing I’ve heard so far on Patreon. And Matt is right. Sorry Freddie.

Beau Schemery

Insane debates are some of my favorite things to listen to. I loved this and I want more!

Rachel McVicar

Yes!! 🙌 It's the return of the king!!!

Ashley Nicollette

Coming back here for another listen because I am very excited for the return of this show

Bryce Stallons

Matt Arnold has made an enemy of this Chicagoan after his comment about deep dish 😂

Rosadi10

So when’s part to cause I loved hearing them just screaming at each other

Rob Priebe

I want more of this. I just need more of this energy in my life

Xaime

As a Chicagoan I’m offended 😂

Autumn Kamibayashiyama

If you all end up at a con, this would be a hilarious live show. But the curling is a feature, not a bug. Crispy pepperoni is the best.

Jennifer Pereira

Just listened, now I'm eating a pepperoni pizza. Suck it, Freddie!

Racing for Tips

I love this energy 😂 I rarely find people I can get like this with

Kait O’Mara

First off, chopped pepperoni is the way to go. Secondly, to prevent pepperoni from curling during the prep of the pizza, you slice the disc about to half of its diameter. Try it out. I still have to agree with matt but Freddie's argument is frustratingly compelling.

Graveyard Beard

To each their own! Also atleast you are self aware xD

Justin Govas

I love hearing them yell at each other. Its hilarious as hell. But I am also 100% in Matts corner. Its delicious as hell, but mostly because my favorite pizza place is a Milwaukee restaraunt does it extremely well. No structural issues decently thin and doesn't cup up. It legit is flat against a thin crust pizza. Also Freddie was too all over the place.

Justin Govas

This is amazing but as an Australian this hurts my head. How much "grease" is on your pizza that you have to dab it off?". Please come to Aus when it is safe so you can have good food! I think we do food differently haha!! The more ingredients on the pizza the better!

Daniel Kubank

I can't believe that I agree with Freddie "measure once cut twice" Wong, but I hate pepperoni. It sucks

Matilda

I'm so Midwestern that like 40% of confrontations make me shake uncontrollably but I just love this

Mary Weber

I had no idea what the meant by the way they argue. Now I realize I argue with my friends the exact same way.

Bobbyo2014

I would listen to this over dungens and daddies and that's the only podcast I listen to now.

Kam Str

If make 4 small cuts on each “corner of the pepperoni it won’t cup up. “Mic drop”

Michael-Jamar Francois

Is it weird that i actually agree with Freddie

David Dillinger

Holy fuck, I've never paid so little for so much in my life till now.

This is exhausting and hilarious.

Bari Arnold

Loved this.

Paid In Paedens

im late to the party but this is a fucking delight. these takes are absurd and i am having the time of my life

Cillian Isaac

Also, I would pay money to be there the next time you have to eat pepperoni pizza together

Kyle Thoms

Matt is right about pepperoni, but couldn’t be more wrong about meatballs

Kyle Thoms

I've only just discovered the existence of debate me coward and am super pleased

Whimsy Divina

But thats st.luis style

JAY JAY SLAYBRAMS

honestly I have to agree with freddy on this one

Ethan Lynch

I worked at a pizza place and there are also forms of cubed pepperoni that we used often

Joey Green

Pepperoni is one thing..... ....but fucking meatballs

UK fan (Dan)

No one is likely to read this now but I just realized my partner partakes in Debate Me Coward every night our roommate gets drunk. It’s not as much fun to listen to though.

Heidi Nehls

As a West Virginian listening to this I kept internally screaming “but what about pepperoni rolls?!”

Katie Bonnett

I think Freddie just has a very specific kink. He likes being verbally attacked because of his hot takes. I said what I said

Chandler

I had to check to see if this was on x2 speed 🤦🏼‍♂️

Clay Walden

Freddie kind of had me but then he added "sausage does better," and sausage on pizza is disgusting.

Olivia

Chicago pizza low key isn't deep dish 😂 it's all about the square cut thin crust

Maggie Mae Krawczyk

100% with Matt. It's as essential to pizza as cheese. If you have more than one type of pizza, it's always at least cheese and pepperoni. Pepperoni also tastes fantastic and is a good snack by itself. Also, the correct way to eat a pizza is to stand on the street, fold your pizza in half, and let the excess grease leak out the back, then eat the nice tasty grease infused crust. In conclusion, all pizza outside NYC is shit

Tom Peace

I need so much more of these.

Stikas

I'm with Freddie. Not only are they gross little grease cups, the grease literally takes away from the flavour of the rest of the pizza. Somehow, it makes it even blander, at least in my experience.

Amber Rietberg

Is a hot dog a sandwich? Is an ice cream cake a bread bowl? These are the questions that keep me up at night

Monti Cerabino

Usually arguing makes me VERY uncomfortable but not you two. Seriously, you should teach a class or something. The world needs you! (Also, as heard on the best food podcast ever, The Sporkful, even the worst pizza is still pretty good.)

Heidi Nehls

I will absolutely riot if we do not get more

Marina Loredo

Ahahaha I have 2 people in my life I argue like this with and it makes everyone else so uncomfortable. I also yelled at my phone while listening because pepperoni def belongs on pizza.

Carrie Pena

Topic idea that me and my friends debated and got into a big argument. Is lube sauce?

Brendan Cleary

I 199% want more of these

Pancakegyro

Freddie is 100% correct. I can never eat pepperoni on pizza, just looking at the grease on it makes my stomach hurt, no amount of dabbing can save that. Also every time I eat pepperoni I think back to my college days and my meat science class eating boar taint pepperoni... so gross....

Mikaela Schriber

Pepperoni 100% belongs on pizza. I will get double pepperoni because I love it so much

ASillyPigeon

Genuinely curious-- how many people have sent a log of pepperoni to the PO box in response to this post?

Christopher Pete

Oh, so that's what we doin' today. We're starting a fuckin' crusade!

Christopher Pete

Only in America is pepperoni bite sized. In the rest of the world it is 4 inch slices. No place on a pizza. The lil US made bites of pepperoni are grosssss, use a nice soft sausage. Team Freddie

Johnny Udall

this is high art.

Chris

Oop I'm with Matt. Pepperoni is delicious and the grease is all part of pizza for me. It's cheap and trashy and one of the most delicious guilty pleasures! There's a beauty in the pepperoni pizza that has existed for so long. Mmm!

Diana de Gracia

I want more of this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Noremackid

I'm with freddie on this one. Pepperoni is not treated with enough respect to be a benefit to pizza.

Aubry Tucker

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

WunDarWun

Now *I’m* getting heated listening, no joke, I am arguing with my car stereo over this. I wish this were more interactive. I will avoid pepperoni on pizza because I don’t care for it, but you know what pizza does belong in? Cheesesteak sandwiches. It enhances the flavor profile. But pizza? Freddie’s right for my personal taste. Unless it’s on a mega supreme with everything except the kitchen sink. Salami is my preferred alternative.

Mira Frenzel

I frickin love debate me coward! This is literally what me and my friends do to ease our boredom at work

Jordan May

Firstly, I would like to preface this by saying that I am inherently not a big pizza fan, and take big issues with sauce. That said, I think Freddie is absolutely correct on an individual level. The grease IS a problem. Dabbing IS gross. But that said, people dab cheese pizza too. Cheese in and of itself produces tons of grease. That said, chicken is the superior pizza meat, and easily bite size. Pepperoni IS difficult to bite and cut through, and it IS a low quality meat. Matt is absolutely incorrect, if you cut a sausage, it will move out of the way, and also it can be cut through with a pizza cutter. Pepperoni will not. But also pepperoni is a sausage???? Like they sell whole logs of pepperoni, Matt, you can cut that shit up however you want, and pieces of pepperoni would DEFINITELY be a superior way to eat it on pizza. And again, that takes us back to Freddie's point about quality. Because grocery store pepperoni is shitty and is sold in those disks, and you don't get to repurpose it however you want. But bite-sized cubed pepperoni is the better way, absolutely. Ultimately, however it comes down to Freddie's initial argument, does pepperoni belong on pizza. And at the end of the day, people can put whatever the fuck they want on there 🤷 someone's always going to want something bad on something, someone's always going to not care about the quality of something, it just is like. Some people put mayo on pizza, some people put corn on pizza, some people make pizza with a nasty ass cauliflower crust. I don't think that you can argue ANYTHING doesn't "belong" on such an ingredient-forward, versatile food. And at the end of the day, even if you were to reach an agreement, and say pepperoni doesn't belong on pizza, someone's always gonna put it there anyways, regardless of whether or not you feel they should. Pizza is a topic that is simply too vast to limit any one topping as truly "wrong," even though I, in agreement with Freddie, would not go for pepperoni in its current form.

Michael & Siyana

I wonder if Freddie listed back to this and said, "Aw hell yeah, nailed this" or if he realized that Matt won lol. Also, didn't Matt say in a recent Talking Dads that he was vegetarian now?

Kjersti Chippindale

“We are all our own cups of grease, destroying the planet” killed me.

Stephanie R Corrigan

Why the hell is there such a giant grin on my face...

Darren Watson

I somehow missed this post. Yea, I got a new thing to listen to.

Willie

Right on man!

Emmy Dee

I don't like pepperoni, mushrooms, or olives, so that cuts out at least 80% of pizza for me. My favorite topping is pineapple, so apparently I'm inherently contentious. Also, this was hilarious and exactly how some of my friends argue.

Karen Bartlett

Every once in a while I got lost while listening to this argument. Freddie had some good points, but I agree with Matt on this argument.

Jacob Jaffe

I love this and I want more. Also Freddie is wrong.

Sara Hepworth

Pepperoni is pizza.

Alonso Gomez

Chopped up pepperoni??? Freddie is a psychopath??

Alonso Gomez

Oh my god, you guys suck at arguing. I'm a huge fan of addressing the controversial and breaking down perspectives but this is just a clusterfuck that leaves me dazed and numb at the end of it all. I want another episode but if you could manage to let eachother finish sentences, that'd be superb.

BOPO

I require more

Maxim Gagnon

Lol this whole conversation is completely frustrating

James Edward Antley IV

This is simply amazing.

Ramzin

My favourite pizza is thin crust pepperoni with extra pepperoni so... Also I haven't noticed basically any of the "problems" listed for pepperoni. I gather pizza in other places is often different to the US though.

Serpentine

Not gonna lie, I agree with Freddy. Disk shaped pepperoni does not belong on pizza

Jason Melton

That was fantastic, please more

Mason Weems

Literally the dumbest argument I’ve ever listened to. 10/10 do it again.

TJ Allen

Omg yes more please!

Danyal Watkins

This was f-ing amazing.. I NEED MOOOOAAAAARRRR

Tycjan Wisniewski

Freddie said that pepperoni is only on pizza but I have had it in sandwiches and just by itself sliced up watching football. He also mentioned that you have to use a "dirty" napkin to dab the grease and you wouldn't use a napkin to wipe the inside of your mouth. How is using a "dirty" napkin to dab the grease different than a chef using a napkin or rag to clean your plate before sending it out of the kitchen?

Michael Troia

I will totally bump my pledge up if there's more of this. It's exactly what it feels like to hangout with our friend group on game night. But we can't exactly have that experience right now. 😅

Tehryn VanSickle

This was iconic. Please do more!

Rebecca Jefferson

Please do more. Please. Please do more.

Alex J Buschmann

That was the biggest waste of 35 minutes I've experienced so far and I am 125% certain I need more of this.. whatever it was. Keep up the good work!

Brian Linares

Plz do more of this

Austin Ellis

Talk about pineapple on pizza you cowards!

Michelle Maher

Please another episode!

Logan Stacey

More please :)

Valori Waggoner

This was great, would love to listen to more!

Josh Dick

Pepperoni curls up if it has a casing still on the outside of it. And this was a great episode. Keep it up.

Hamilton Nguyen

As an ex pizza chef I agree with Freddie, pepperoni is the most B-tech topping you can have on a pizza. There are so many other options to put in it, people only find a fondness to pepperoni because as a child you would be given pepperoni to make it ‘more exciting’ than a plain margarita. Top tip for the best (in my opinion) pizza; take a rump steak cooked rare (it’ll cook more in the oven) cut into strips with fried onions and peppers then oven bake on high with fresh mozzarella. Best simple but delicious toppings.

Connor Earnshaw

This is so utterly brilliant! More please!

Jacob

Good lord this was an amazing episode. For the love of pete, please do more. 🙏

Gabriel Nylund

No he wasn't

Emmie

I couldn't breathe I was laughing so hard. Please please do more.

Emmie

I fell in love with your debating! I could listen to thos all day! Please do more!!

Kierstin Porter

Yes please! It may not be everybody's cup of tea but for me it reminds me of friends that I lost in my divorce a decade ago. So more please and soon?

Bob McCoog

This was just *chefs kiss* pure perfection.

Elizabeth Lai

this is insane and i love it

Minnie Bunch

The occasional arguments in D&Dad are fun, but this consistent high energy arguing is just giving me anxiety and I had to turn it off. I am ordering a pizza now though, with pepperoni. I do think if good thicker sliced sausage was more common I would happily let it take pepperoni's spot,

Zac Childs

Pepperoni belongs on pizza. I have spoken. Please make more. I'd support this has its own podcast, even.

Jack Kahn

please do this more oh god yes

pandemelium

I agree with Freddie’s initial point, for what pepperoni brings, there are a multitude of better options, but the dirty napkin point got muddled, and I think Matt held his side better.

pandemelium

And I'm high and ordering pizza lol

Zachary Calvert

I'm loving this shit. Pro pepperoni

Zachary Calvert

cheese over pepperoni, stl solves this problem years ago

Jordan

I wanted to order a pepperoni pizza as soon as they started arguing. I will say I was thinking the chopped up pepperoni right before Freddy starter talking about it and I might try that with my next pizza.

Kyle Barnes

The anxiety this gave me drove me to order a pepperoni pizza 😔✊

Katie

The content I didn't know I needed.

Caila

This is what Michael Palin was actually looking for when he went into that argument clinic

Genzo

I definitely hope you guys do more of these in the future, it was fun to listen to. I don't have a dog in this fight since I love both but prefer Hawaiian but I'm excited for the next topic! Idk if you guys know about Splatoon but the splatfest topics could give you some ideas if you run out ❤️

Loctane

You guys need to go on We Got This already!

Rebecca Pridmore

I'm with Matt. That being said, I'm sadly allergic to both pepperoni AND Italian sausage these days, so I go for Hawaiian every time. That's right, ham and pineapple pizza. It's delicious and doesn't make me sick. DEBATE ME!

Emily

Okay listen You GOTTA do another one on whether hot dog is a sandwich

Mathmagician

I would like to spark a controversy... I eat pizza with a fork

Braxton Walden

I am a masochist and want a million of these episodes

ningmengcha

This should be a channel on the discord.

Austin Baker

This was great! I think I mostly side with Freddie actually though I can honestly say I've never even thought about this topic it's just so widely accepted. When I was a kid cheese was the only acceptable topping, I used to pull the pepperonis off if pepperoni pizza was the only option at parties but today it's fine, definitely much better as part of a supreme pizza. Freddie's absolutely right about the cups of grease and pulling cheese and other toppings off of a pizza. I can't tell you how many times I've taken 50% of the pizza off with a pepperoni bite, leaving staring at saucy dough. It is still pretty good though, I think the chopped pepperoni might have some legs to it.

Austin Baker

freddie makes valid points but pepperoni does belong on pizza. also chicago deep-dish pizza is absolutely fucking shit and should be outlawed.

Sophia Pascale

I want this as a complete separate podcast. This is so incredibly entertaining

Maxim Gagnon

You can like it or not but to say "it doesn't belong" discounts the people who enjoy it. Mans tryna cancel pepperoni lol.

Spencer Ruiz

do more(ง'̀-'́)ง

Bambi Ward

I would so binge this if given the chance i love it 🤣🤣🤣

Katriel Kauffman

I love this content bahahahahahadjdjfkskg

Jamie Advincula

Freddie is wrong here. 1. Personal preference doesn't mean the thing you don't like suddenly doesn't belong there 2. Freddie you changed your argument half way through. Next time he more specific about what your argument is. Anyways please make more, this is fantastic!

Byron Yocum

Freddie abandoned the resolution: Matt wins. This makes me so nostalgic for debate competition. Please, please, do more of these.

Skittle_me_this

This is a joy to listen to and also Freddie fully won

Cori Foster

Freddie is right but I also want a pepperoni pizza rn

Rachel

Hell yeah Freddy, f pepperoni

The Nedovtipa

This is awesome! Please make more of this type of content!

Sam Ahlstrom

I've been waiting for a podcast like this for years!!!!

Jen the Reaper

Pepperoni is the worst topping for pizza and I will take this to my grave.

Delaney Garry

im 54 seconds in and i want more

George.IV

Thanks for making my weekend!

Nick

I'm with Freddie on this one. Just because pepperoni is a traditional pizza topping doesn't mean that it's inherently good

Kimberly Tevis

Guys. You need to make more of this. I love this so much!

Byron Yocum

I’m so hyped for this

JJ Galloway

Pepperoni is also great with salami on an Italian sub, though.

Timothy A Davis

Pepperoni belongs on pizza. Also, I would listen to another.

Jake Madewell

Holy shit this is amazing. I would absolutely listen to a hundred episodes of this

Someone Named Tygget

This is wonderful and I can't wait to listen to more 😂😂😂

Chris Wall

PLEASE make more of this

Ashley P

I saw the title and came running. 5 minutes in and I regret nothing

Mak

I haven’t listened, but Freddie is wrong.

Robert

This was utterly ridiculous. 1000/10, I need tons more of this

Bree Perschall

thank you for the serotonin dads

essy

Jesus you guys lol that was stressful

Travis Lopez

Matt : 1 Freddie : 0

The First Dan

Please do more of these. I love this so much! It's exactly how I argue with my friends

Kaitlynn Lowder

this is the best thing ive ever listened to and also freddie's right

binta coulibaly

I don’t even need to listen to the episode to know that whoever falls on the side of “pepperoni does not belong on pizza” is wrong.

Please do more of this.

Ryan Garcia

Freddie has an untenable position.

Morgan Whiterabbit

I didn’t think this was gonna actually happen. I’m so so happy

Stephen Johnson

I already love this. Hope there is more!

I'm gonna listen to this later, but also, one of you is very, very, very wrong
