The Internet Is Roasting Steven Cheah For Getting Duped By A.I. Slop | The Yak 5-26-26

Steven Cheah posted an AI-generated video depicting crabs in elaborate underground tunnels, complete with a GoPro, and genuinely questioned its reality. Despite obvious visual cues like a crab with three claws and perfectly lit 'Roman Coliseum' structures, Cheah defended his slight belief, stating there was a '10% chance' it wasn't AI. This was particularly ironic as his father is an experienced crabber in Manahawkin, New Jersey, who crabs almost daily off his dock, making Cheah 'well-versed in crabs' but not their subterranean civilizations.

Cheah's tweet with parentheses 'if this is real. I'm not sure if it is.' (00:18:28), hosts pointing out the three claws (00:19:12) and Roman Coliseum (00:19:57) features. Cheah's revelation about his father crabbing every day in Manahawkin, NJ (00:21:21).

Mincy initiated the 'Shreveport Bread Wars' story, detailing a parking dispute between his friends' new restaurant and an elevated neighboring bakery. Customers of the restaurant were parking in the bakery's lot and using a staircase to access Mincy's friends' establishment, leading the bakery to erect a fence. Mincy initially tried to suppress the story due to 'legal issues' and his friends' embarrassment, but the hosts pressed for details, revealing Mincy's friends were likely in the wrong for encouraging parking on the bakery's property. The hosts even considered contacting the Shreveport mayor and the landlord for a 'ruling'.

Mincy's initial call about a 'story that's gonna take over the country' (01:25:32), the description of two separate parking lots and a staircase (01:26:21), the bakery building a fence (01:27:41), Mincy's claim of 'legal issues' (01:23:37), and the hosts' plan to contact the mayor and landlord (01:43:10).

Danny revealed his lifelong struggle with spilling food, particularly pasta and pizza, often getting sauce on his shirt. This led to a mortifying experience at the upscale restaurant Carbone, where his intense focus on *not* spilling food caused him to accidentally hit a water glass, breaking it and spilling water everywhere. This incident led to a 'pit crew' of servers changing the entire tablecloth, making a much bigger scene than any food spill would have.

Danny admitting 'if I'm eating pasta, there's a good chance some sauce might trickle down' (00:07:12), and the detailed account of breaking a glass at Carbone while trying to avoid spilling food (00:10:05).

Rico Bosco was brought on the show to confirm his previous statement that he would rather eat semen than spinach. He reiterated his strong dislike for spinach, stating he would 'think about it' and even consider milk before spinach. This bizarre preference became a notable moment of the episode.

Rico's direct confirmation: 'I'd think about it. I hate spinach.' (00:55:57) and 'I'd probably go milk before that, but I think about that, too.' (00:56:07).

The hosts clarified that The Yak's recent week-long break was not a vacation but a necessary hiatus due to Barstool's 'Surviving' competition taking over the office. The production required the office space and also prevented cast members from appearing on live shows immediately after filming to avoid spoilers for the competition.

The host explaining, 'surviving was taking over this entire office for the last two weeks' and 'if you don't want spoilers for Surviving, we couldn't have had a show where half of the cast... are on the yak the day after surviving ends.' (00:04:33).
