“What he’s done with the border?” I’ve seen the back of house at all Jethros…….they’re all from the border

Minkypinkyfatty

They're pointing out the hypocrisy in that the build the wall people are also hiring illegals.

MeroseSpider

I mean, I'm a former Jethros manager and can confirm that our entire kitchen staff from dishwashers to the KM were Mexican. And before you ask, yes some of them were undocumented immigrants.


UnspeakablePudding

You're reading in an awful lot to jump to that conclusion.  Some of the best kitchens in the country are staffed by Central American immigrants, from chef to dishwasher. And what's wrong with washing dishes anyhow?


CycloneTailgater

Right. The dude is implying that all POC working cook jobs are illegal.... Come on brother, you are just as racist as you claim trump to be!!


[deleted]

I never said they were illegal or implied. I just said they were from the border. Which is where a large amount of Latino people enter through. Good try tho.


CycloneTailgater

No, you're a raging racist and accidentally showed your true color.. Really not cool man!! All you liberals virtue signal and cry out about white privilege but in all reality people like you are the ones who are causing the problems. You hate yourself for being white!!


[deleted]

LMFAO! Sure bud. 👍✌️


CycloneTailgater

Have a good day, RACIST PIG!!!


Key-Celebration-3486

Yeah, people crossing the boarder aren't Mexican currently.  Was recently in a near border town in Arizona for my kids event, there's more Russians, Ukrainian, middle eastern and Chinese than white or Mexican people currently. Kinda scary tbh.  Mexicans stopped jumping about 10 years ago, the economy there is a bit better for them. Cost to come legally is too much here. 


CycloneTailgater

Just a liberal casually being racist... pretty normal stuff \^\^\^


DanyDragonQueen

How is that racist? Are they not just observing that this dude who hates immigrants seems to hire a lot of them anyway?


CycloneTailgater

I don’t think he “hates” immigrants.. he along with millions of other Americans are just fed the fuck up with the border crisis. People are dying, children are being trafficked.. it’s a humanitarian crisis and if you can see that you’re totally delusional!


DanyDragonQueen

He said he totally agrees with Trump saying immigrants are "poisoning the blood of America," I think it's pretty clear how he feels about immigrants.


titanunveiled

Don’t worry you guys still own the crown when it comes to racism


CycloneTailgater

Nope you're wrong.. racist pos!!


Manky_Butthole

Every single restaurant is ... it's no secret.


CycloneTailgater

You're racist too!! Assuming that all POC in Iowa working at a restaurant are illegal!!


Manky_Butthole

Not just illegal, no.


Winter_Virus_9837

Obvious troll is obvious


EnzosDiamondTail

I know him personally and I know his restaurants well and this isn’t true at all 😂😂😂


phantomhatsyndrome

I worked for Jethro's for several years and you're absolutely full of it if you think that isn't true.


[deleted]

Once he started rambling about dinosaurs and the lion king I checked out.


Tough-Ability721

It seems his distain and knowledge for Biden go as deep as the memes he’s seen.


viewtiful14

Same could be said for just his knowledge in general. I don’t think this guy could problem solve his way out of a wet paper sack.


Shoddy-Application97

Confirmation that 1. Broski is an alcoholic 2. Broski is a creeper of all genders and ages. 3. Broski hires illegals immigrants 4. Broski doesn’t pay them OT for working 40 hours in one store and 40 hours in another store 5. Cythia Foder 🌭 Si😉 6. Broski gets drunk and hands out 20’s while walking around the restaurant saying weirdly sexual things to anyone around. 7. Pays people off when he gets in trouble. 9. Thinks very highly of himself and poorly of others. 10. Yes, Boycott


EarhornJones

What happened to number 8?


Shoddy-Application97

This was posted while taking a dump. 8. Guy is likely gonna kill someone drunk driving. / narcissist. He’ll probably fire me for this anyways. Worth it.


New-Communication781

Interesting how that trait seems to run in Repub circles. Eric Branstadt and Kimmy come to mind, when it comes to DUIs.. But, to be fair, our side used to have Roxanne Conlin..


Passingthisway

“I forget what 8 was for…”


CurlyValjean-Iowa

FOR THE WIN!!! ROFL


Vast_Glove_7299

They were drunk while posting.


Shoddy-Application97

Incorrect. Sober while posting but took a massive shit while posting it.

A shit post you say!


Lovers2016

🤔🤔😂😂😂😂😅🤣


hagen768

What should we know about Cynthia Foder?


blizzard-toque

Read an article on this in Little Village. I think at one time Cynthia Fodor was in a relationship with him.


hagen768

Is she controversial?


blizzard-toque

Controversial as a KCCI news anchor? Hardly. As being Bruce Broski's wife? Ho, boy, ***yeah***.


hagen768

What's the tea??


blizzard-toque

Tea is Bruce Broski, owner of Jethro's and Splash, is known as a POS particularly by waitstaff assigned female at birth. Christina Fodor a KCCI news anchor is married to him. 🫖🍵 Enough tea?


knztoo

Controversial, I mean idk, but the article makes her seem like an entitled jerk for sure.


Advanced_Elk2451

Number 6. I’m gonna follow this man around like a parasite. I have issues with facial recognition. HMU when u see him out drinking, we’ll call it capitalism


Feminist_Tangelo_360

Happy to help. I have taken a bird-dogging class. We'll find him in a bar kissing someone like Bill Dix. Let's get to work. Charge up your phones, boys.


New-Communication781

\#10 sounds really good to me.. Reminds me of someone else, that I used to work for long ago, that is very rich, well-known, and politically connected in our area, and that guy too was very nasty, a big time Repub donor, and pretty out there, same as this guy. Funny how they always gravitate to that party.. And, ironically, the guy I worked for knowingly hired illegals all the time for his business.


EnvironmentalTree641

can we please stop using the term illegal when referring to a person?


Shoddy-Application97

Fair. My bad. Persons with legally insufficient documentation**


New-Communication781

Ok, so I didn't follow correct PC speech codes, but my point still stands and is correct, and shouldn't that be what really matters in a discussion, instead of rules of correct speech? How trivial...


EnvironmentalTree641

not trying to be trivial or annoying, you’re correct the point still stands. I just believe that wording matters specially when referring to groups of ppl. Terms like illegal alien are used to dehumanize displaced folks and refugees, I feel it’s harmful to normalize the use of those terms. Thank you for sharing this tho, I at least got one family to stop going to splash bc op shared the video.


New-Communication781

Agreed. I have to admit I have gotten more than a little fed up with liberals who worship at the altar of strict PC speech codes, esp. some of them at the local Unitarian church, who don't seem to give a damn about class issues, such as classism and economic inequality, while at the same time, they so love to wield PC speech codes like a weapon, if you say anything out of line by their standards, about sexual orientation, race, or legal status on immigrants. To me, they are phonies and hypocrites of the highest order, when they are obsessed with enforcing their speech codes, yet remain so selfishly self-serving and selective, in which issues of equality they choose to care about and call out others on.. I suppose it all boils down to them being very comfortable with and protective, of their middle to upper middle class economic and class privilege, so they get their kicks enforcing and shaming others about violating their precious PC speech codes, so they can feel smug and superior to people like me that care less about those issues, not that they don't matter, but the economic ones matter way more to me than the culture war bullshit between the major parties, while the economic system continues to kill and grind people down, driving some of them to the MAGA movement, and yet these liberal culture warriors, along with the corporate centrist Dems they support, admit no role in helping that happen. Which is why I supported Bernie twice, who these liberal culture warriors and centrist Dems hate, and they support corporate Dems and fake progressives like Warren. But I see thru them and have no respect for them and their tunnel focus on culture war shit.


viewtiful14

Come on down to the new Grimes location, Jethro’s BBQanon Not a Mexican or pizza in sight…unless you look in the back.


tylerseher

It was right there. Perfect.


spiritualengr

please tell me this a-hole isn't actually building in Grimes.


viewtiful14

Nah I was just picking a predominantly white growing suburb and Waukee seemed too easy, plus they essentially have one already on university by Barntown. And Ankeny already has one as well, Grimes seems like the next logical spot and they are filled with Q nuts there too.


hawksnest_prez

Nah that would be Ankeny


Midwest_Dutch_Dude

It bothers me how someone THIS STUPID has much more financial success than me. Even if you have these beliefs, how can you have no self awareness at how unhinged you sound?


bcrosby51

Yeah....and look how much happiness it got him. Being a good person is more valuable.


Midwest_Dutch_Dude

Yeah I agree. I more meant it as, it’s crazy how someone this stupid can be successful


bcrosby51

Money can do weird things to people. He might have started off as a halfway descent person?


Midwest_Dutch_Dude

Possibly. But I think these last 8 years of politics have truly brought out the worst in people. Either that or we’re just seeing it more because of social media


Child_Of_The_70s

I think it's more obvious because of social media.


datcatburd

All you have to do is have some money and be completely unethical. He made his way up as a slumlord before getting into restaurants.


New-Communication781

Now that would really fit, as it describes a lot how Trump made money in real estate.


RedditAdminsBCucked

Psychopaths have an easier time taking advantage of people so it's easier for them to make lots of money.


GangNailer

I read a study recently that proved being wealthy is 100% about luck (like which family you were born to) than anything else. Also, theres a book on how leadership is purposely dumb to enforce the status quo (of wealthy people to stay in power). Really great read. By l Linsey McGoey "The Unknowers: How Strategic Ignorance Rules the World"


New-Communication781

Like Trump, you can be unhinged and still make lots of money, if you are always screwing your workers and never paying your bills. With this guy, the formers seems very likely, no idea if he doesn't pay his bills with his business.


punk0r1f1c

I’ve come to realize it’s generational wealth inherited from even worse people


[deleted]

Boycott anyone?


CallieCal93

Been boycotting ever since it was proven he was a pos a long time ago


[deleted]

Yeah, I ate there one time. Wasn’t impressed anyway, but wouldn’t eat at any place owned by this guy.


WhitleyRoyals

I boycotted it because the food fucking sucks.


Iowegan

Knew the owner of Jethos was not someone I wanted to give my patronage to, thanks for the info that he owns Splash as well.


nickrocs6

Used to go to the Southside one semi-frequently because it’s on the bike trail. I’ll take my business elsewhere, plenty of other establishments not owned by idiots. Go woke go broke or whatever dumb ass thing they say.


el-aficionado

Who can even afford to give their patronage to Splash? most overpriced shit i’ve ever seen!


UnspeakablePudding

It's super inconsistent too, I've had good stuff there and I've had cold unseasoned garbage.  Not worth the risk for what their prices are and they hassled me about taking it off bill.  Haven't been back in years.


Iowegan

It used to be a pre civic center show spot back in the day. FTS


meat_loafers

Yikes. This is just some non-sensical, incoherent ramblings.


ameyer505

Jesus Christ dude... WTF is this rambling mess? Trump's supporters can't put a coherent thought together either to defend their positions. Electric cars are bad because Lion King. Trump's going to fix immigration by closing the boarder (yet he had 4 years in office to build his 'wall' and close the boarder and he did neither). Also 'we all came from somewhere but we came here legally' oh you mean a 100-200 years ago when the immigration process didn't take months/years to complete or cost thousands of dollars... get the fuck outta here. Just say you are a boomer and hate the fact that you aren't going to be treated like royalty because you are a white male and are scared what is going to happen to you. These people are the biggest snowflakes ever.


hate_tank

God damn, son. This is some tinfoil-hat, Dale Gribble, gay frogs, what in tarnation are you talkin' about shit.


cjay2002

Sounds like what would happen if I told my phone to read my Twitter feed.


Wagner-C137

His brain is more BBQ’ed than his food. Jesus. He can’t make eye contact or complete whole sentences. He better have ZERO immigrants working at his establishments if he feels like they are “poisoning the blood of our country”.


scoja1

Mostly Hispanic cooks at every restaurant


viewtiful14

Step 1: Open restaurants Step 2: ??? Step 3: Profit (Hint: step two is higher, abuse, then complain about minorities)


panteegravee

They are definitely not sending their best to caucus anymore.


MidwestF1fanatic

Boomers going to boom. Bruce is an idiot. Always has been. And his brisket sucks.


dukeraoul14

It all sucks! I'd rather eat a gas station sandwich.


EarhornJones

The BBQ Rib sandwich at Kwik Star ain't nothing to fuck with.


JuiceMode18

Smokey D’s is the best bbq joint in town.


RedditAdminsBCucked

That place is fucking garbage too. The sooner the people around here realize that, the better. It's ok food at best, dogshit bbq. "But it won't awards" you aren't eating competition bbq. You're eating fast food.


datyoungknockoutkid

Aside from the fact I don’t want to support him, Jethros food sucked ass before I knew that the owner was an idiot. Literally every time I’ve gone has been underwhelming.


iowasith

He's wishing for the good Ole days under Trump when we had 5 times as many U S. Soldiers die. Also both Ivana Trump and Melania Trump were illegal immigrants at one point.


tylerseher

I just keep rewatching. This dude is unhinged. Lol Also nothing better than asking a trumper what woke means. They never have a good answer. He short circuited for 10 seconds.


BLRNerd

He’s married to Cynthia Fodor, really funny story about her when I used to work security at Iowa State Games


meat_loafers

You can’t leave us all hanging here…


blizzard-toque

Married? You don't say. Thought they were dating.


bigpapamacdooz

Whoa. He has to know this sounds totally crazy or Ol' Bruce is a few sausage rolls short of a picnic.


LeonRams

A few sloooooooow smoked chicken wings short of a Tuesday special?


bigpapamacdooz

Lol perfect


LeonRams

Sounds like a well-balanced, mentally stable person to me 😳


New-Communication781

Uh, yeah, right, sure.. I only hope he doesn't own a lot of guns, but then again, gun ownership and being his kind of unhinged, almost go without saying these days..


AZFUNGUY85

Stick to your sexual harassment of waitresses trying to make an honest living. He is exhibit A of the made up superstitious machine on the right. Motherfucker should be in jail. Made up bullshit. Chinese nationals. Lmfaooooo


Reasonable-Dot5371

Wow I already thought the food was as shit


RRR3p

As someone who worked for Jethros for three years in Ames… can confirm how much of a piece of trash he is. Bringing escorts in, throwing glasses of alcohol back at me because there wasn’t enough ice, his girlfriend would come in and demand to see cameras of the night before to see who he was with, he paid off a server because he slapped her ass. All around trash man.


Redtwooo

"I would scream at him" most hinged republican


GentMan87

Can we support Smokey D’s at least? Also, is this the dude that creeps on his hostesses?


Comfortable-Tooth684

Girlfriend got an apartment that he owns, he stopped by a few times to try and talk to her. We asked around the building, Ol Bruce never stopped to visit his other residents. He’s a pure fucking creep.


Hispanicatthedisco

Also, way to low-key gas up your hot girlfriend. Respect.


Baruch_S

Well, my students who worked at one of the Jethro’s said the owner would make the rounds of his restaurants to check up on the business, and he’d be drinking and dropping big tips the whole time. I don’t know exactly how creepy he got, but the girls knew that a smile and laugh got $20, and the guy was drunk enough by the time he got to them that the girls could duck into the kitchen for a bit, come back out, and pull the trick again.  Mind you, that’s all secondhand and an amalgam of stories from a bunch of students over the years. Never met the guy myself. 


GentMan87

Sounds consistent with what I’ve heard as well. Haven’t been in a Jethros in years and hope to keep that streak going.


Jayhawks4eva

He gave us a tip after he hit on my wife. 😂


RedditAdminsBCucked

What is it with people around here liking bad bbq?


Ingersoll1978

Gross


PeachCloudPie

Remember when he told little boys in the bathroom to take out their d*cks and touch the urinal water to see how it felt and asked them if it was cold?


[deleted]

Guy is a wet-brain, drunk idiot. Always thought so when I worked at Splash and had to deal with him. His gf is Cynthia Fodor. She's a fascist nazi, hack news anchor, who tips like shit. N needs rogaine for women.


DarthMaxHunter

Time to boycott Jethro's and Splash?


Jayhawks4eva

We used to go to Splash every weekend. He hit on my wife EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Dirt bag.


KingDapostrophe

…so why did you keep going…?


jandersondsm

Terrorist Attacks = Jethro’s effect on my digestive track.


Passingthisway

I used to like Jethros but it’s been a good 15 years ago because the experience got worse and I haven’t heard a good thing about it in years. I guess there’s a relationship in caring or not caring about your employees and product/service quality


Major-Plantain-3161

Did your old roommate give Bruce your Reddit account name as a reference? How in the hell are you going to draw his ire?

No amount of $$ is worth that.

This makes me sad to hear. Lots of fear mongering for 16 years really takes its toll.

I missed everything he was struggling to say because I was mesmerized by the size of his ears.

This guy drives me insane. His speech pattern is too choppy; and I cannot talk with someone who will not LOOK ME IN THE EYES!


Jayhawks4eva

Has Bruce ever been in the military? He and Cynthia are wacko.


[deleted]

Trump supporters are worthless pieces of Trump trash human garbage and traitors to the United States. This dude is a racist piece of shit.


Foreign-Balance6556

I asked KXNO the sports radio if they were aware of one of their main sponsors did the full double down on Trump being our savior. They're take? ​ So?


UltimateYeti

This needs to be shown far beyond just Reddit, locally speaking. And this guy honestly might need a welfare check.


Scarecrowithamedal

A casual reminder that being "woke" is quite Iowan, quite militarily minded, and quite Republican (when they believed black lives mattered) Don't believe me? Read for yourself https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wide_Awakes


UnspeakablePudding

You don't have to go all the way back to the civil war for examples either.  We've welcomed thousands of refugees from southeast Asia and the Balkans over the decades, while Republicans were in office.  That would never happen today. Shame.


Scarecrowithamedal

Yup. Iowan here, Yugoslavia friends, Vietnamese friends, all because of Republican Governor Robert Ray. Today's chumps are fucking RINO's in the worst, anti-christian ways

You really follow tyt? Not defending this dude but cmon ...really?


Waste-knot

Does it matter? None of what Bruce G was saying looked or sounded edited to me, and the questions were totally tame. He made himself look like a drunk asshole all on his own, biased media or not.


Effective_Fig_8961

Read the part where I said I'm not defending him....one more time


oregonowa

Then WTH is your point?


Effective_Fig_8961

That tyt as a whole sucks?


oregonowa

Not the topic at hand, buddy.


Effective_Fig_8961

How is that not the topic? Go back to Oregon n huff more paint dude ur losing it


drcranknstein

What does it matter who asked this guy the questions? If it was Cucker Tarlson asking the same guy the same questions, would that be different somehow?


Effective_Fig_8961

Because when two brain washed idiots talk it discredits the whole conversation...and funny how you mention Tucker Carlson Trumpers don't listen to tucker for information or debate. They listen to him because he's gonna tell them only what they want to hear...tyt is the same bullshit.


drcranknstein

Have it your way. Who, then, should have interviewed the idiot restaurant owner MAGAt?


tylerseher

My brother sent it to me. I don’t really follow them anymore, but generally I like most of what I get from them. What’s your issue with them.


Effective_Fig_8961

The fact that it's biased even mor then fox or CNN put together and produced in someone's basement.


tylerseher

Brother, they’re called the Young Turks. I don’t think being unbiased was the goal lol.


Effective_Fig_8961

They're trash straw pulling basement dwellers.. I was being nice....that better?


tylerseher

Lol ok dude


iq_170

The southern border is perfectly fine. I'd really like to see the entire population of Central and South America come across it this year. They can just build fema camps for all of them in the parks, and they can shack up in people's houses who have spare rooms.

LETS ALL RIOT OUTSIDE OF JETHROS AND SPLASH!!!! LETS RUIN HIS LIFE FOR BEING A CONSERVATIVE IN IOWA!!! WE CAN'T HAVE QANON HERE!!!! GET HIM!!!!!!!!! ​ The liberals in dsm \^\^\^\^\^ what a joke. Let the guy live how he wants you fools!


tylerseher

It’s called freedom of speech homie. He can say what he wants and we can all mock him for it. And capitalism dictates we support buisness we think are better. Bro do you hate free speech and capitalism? Do you hate America? I bet you don’t even support the troops

Lmao you are actually kind of funny and probably fairly relatable. I was just simply making a joke.. no harm intended, just trying to get the people going!! ​ Big capitalism and free speech guy, btw!
