Halloween Special Edition

Iron Man Redux
With the recording for Week Thirty-One lost for all time we decided to do a little something special to commemorate the dead episode.  And what better time to do that than Halloween weekend.  We may not have the recording, but we do have the chat transcript in which Daniel gets mad at Ben and Isaac for questing without him.  We also have awesome significant others, who graciously agreed to provide their voices for the dramatic reading of said transcript.  We hope you enjoy.  Happy Burrito-Ween!

Ingredients: Amy, Carrie, and Jenni

Ratings:
Ben - This may be the best episode of Burrito Quest we've ever done.
Daniel - Badass!
Isaac - HAHA!

Week Forty

Mario Bros.
This was the Junkyard Dog, minus the chicken and steak added.  A divisive burrito for our Questers.  Ben reveals his contempt for people who are not him.  Daniel yells at Ben.  Isaac tries to bridge the gap.  There is reminiscence about old Nintendo games.  Of course there is.

Ingredients: Steak, Ham, Potato, Bacon, Green Chile, and Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - Little salsa cup, the only reason you care is if you don't get enough of them and need them for the burrito to be good.
Daniel - Mario Bros. on the Nintendo, I loved that game, but not as much as Zelda.
Isaac - Waffles, I like waffles, I like pancakes better, every once in a while it's good but if I had it too regularly I'd probably side with Ben.

Week Thirty-Nine

Mankind
The Devil's Breath, minus one Steak and plus one Chicken.  A strange, tomato-y, spicy flavor turns the burrito into some kind of good/bad jambalaya, without the rice.  A good burrito.  SPICE!

Ingredients: Steak, Chicken, Potato, Pico, Green Chile, Salsa, and Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - Land mines, sometimes they're good, depending on who they're blowing up.  I like landmines, but I feel like I shouldn't.
Daniel - The Steel Remains by Richard K. Morgan, it's a good book that steps outside of what fantasy novels normally do, but, man, there are some really uncomfortable gay sex scenes.
Isaac - A surprise birthday party, it's a mixed bag, someone went out of their way for you, but then you get stupid drunk and wake up hung over the next morning and wish you had just stayed home to eat cake and watch gay sex.

Week Thirty-Eight

Macho Man
How quickly Ben forgets the Junkyard Dog.  This is another burrito that collapses in-hand.  Ultimately a kind of forgettable and unnecessary burrito.  Ben, shut up about Taco Bell already!

Ingredients: Chicken, Bacon, Beans, Eggs, and Milanesa

Ratings:
Ben - Road rash, but only if you're going kind of slow, you weren't doing anything cool but you got kind of hurt.
Daniel - Wet naps, it's for people who get messy when they eat, and they don't taste that great.
Isaac - Road trips with friends when you're coming back from wherever you went, it becomes just an endurance test.

Week Thirty-Seven

Lumberjack
Our largest Quest ever, we have three guest questers, one all the way from Alabama.  Who knew anyone was actually listening to this?  Marty brings some class to the Quest by eating his burrito with scotch while wearing a dress jacket.  Ben disappoints by shaving off his lumberjack-like beard before we eat the Lumberjack.  Man, do we bust on Sage a lot on Burrito Quest.

Ingredients: Steak, Ham, Bacon, Egg, and Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - Swine flu, 1) I just thought of swine flu because we're talking about pork, 2) and I thought I had swine flu a little while ago and it wasn't that bad, for most people they can have it and they're going to be ok.
Daniel - Dr. Zoidberg, my second favorite character on Futurama, on the Futurama scale this is a solid Dr. Zoidberg.
Isaac - Pancakes at Village Inn, I've had better pancakes but those are a good standby.
Jenni - It's a ride on a swing, it isn't the greatest thing ever, but I can't seem to stop myself when I see one.
Robert - 4/5, it's definitely one that I would buy again, and it's one of the few times one of these burritos has made me full.
Marty - Great hangover burrito, it's got all your bulk and grease in one place, 4 Advils and a Gatorade.
