00:19 Alright, pizza review time. We are at Zacks Pizza, established 1964.
00:25 [Truck noise]
00:30 The sign, very cool. Same guy in there working. His father started it.
00:35 He's been in there, it seems like every day of his life working.
00:38 The same register for what? 80 years? No, 60 years.
00:45 2024, 64. 64, 40 years would be old for it. 60 years.
00:53 One bite, everyone knows the rules. Classic looking pizza, so hot.
00:58 It's sizzling around. This is like a very traditional looking pizza for me.
01:04 Now Zacks, I feel like sales guy, this was his spot. We're in his hometown, Randolph.
01:09 Also, Linwood is obviously a big spot. I've done Linwood, this is in Bar 5.
01:15 I think I'm gonna like it. I also think it's gonna burn my face off.
01:19 So I'm gonna do a little talk, and the guy had no idea. Oof.
01:23 I said oof there because this felt like very firm, no flop.
01:28 As I said that, that's why I said it'll flop. Good undercarriage, right Austin?
01:33 Good undercarriage. One bite, everyone knows the rules. Dave, it's not a kids game anymore.
01:40 Look at the steam coming off. That's a great undercarriage.
01:43 Please don't burn your face. Please don't burn the roof of your mouth.
01:47 Your cells don't grow back as quickly when you're a whippersnapper.
01:50 I burned this off, that's three to four weeks no skin on the top of my mouth.
01:54 So Dave, talk it out, let it cool, blow on it, and take a bite.
02:00 Zacks Pizza, Randolph, Massachusetts.
02:02 [Horn honking]
02:03 Almost had an accident.
02:15 Very good.
02:17 I could see, like if you don't like bar pie, and you're not a New Haven guy,
02:24 this could be like as good for this style. It's like a different style, more basic, but very good.
02:41 I wish it was a tiny bit tighter. I've said that a lot lately.
02:45 Maybe that's a Massachusetts thing, where you can pick it up, twirl it, and it stays together.
02:51 A la Joni Shelford.
02:54 7-7. Very good, high-end quality.
03:02 I've said it a bunch, I feel like I'm repeating myself, but I don't know.
03:07 If a pizza talks to me, I don't talk for it.
03:09 7-7, in this, I'd be proud to call this my hometown pizza, I really would.
03:14 Zacks Pizza, 1964, that's the guy in the mirror, he's been there every fucking day of the year.
03:19 There you go, that's our review.
03:21 One out of ten, how do you fucking rate it?
03:26 Here's 7-8, no, 7-7.
03:28 7-7?
03:29 Yeah, good.
03:30 There wasn't much, I like it. It's like a good basic pizza.
03:34 Alright.

04:33 I liked it.
04:34 Yeah, I mean, guys, it seems like he lives in that, like never dead.
04:37 You got a truck, oh yeah, you don't like that truck, I was going to say Linwood's.
04:41 I've done Linwood, no, I love Bar Pie.
04:43 Yeah, Linwood versus Townspa, that's like the rivalry, right?
04:46 Linwood's got that bite, they got that.
04:49 Yeah, no, I like, we started, when I started doing the reviews, those were like the first five I did, like Linwood, Townspa, yeah.
04:55 Because I was doing all the Bar Pies, nobody wants that.
04:59 One bite, everybody knows the rules.
05:01 There it is.
05:03 Are you sure nobody wants that?
05:04 I mean, this is the one they want.
05:05 This, I have to because it's just me here.
05:08 You know what, did you ever do a full online?
05:10 My name is Joe Kerns, the brand's David.
05:13 So, why you got on?
05:14 This is a logo, this is, we've been doing it for eight years, the store, we've been doing it for like three years.
05:18 So, what, you guys sell it online, then move out of shop?
05:20 We just moved online, but we usually sell out, we have a release, like we just released today.
05:24 Yeah.
05:25 So, we just opened online today.
05:27 That's sick.
05:28 So, how do people get the releases?
05:29 They come to the store, they do it online?
