Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey folks, welcome to the Sloppy Boys where we take a deep dive into the drinks that you love. I'm Jeff Dutton along with Michael Hanford. Hi. And Timothy Jordan Kalpakis. What is up? We are your hosts, the Sloppy Boys Band. Oh, I would say, what is up original cocktail stylies today? Oh yeah, what is up original cocktail stylies today?
Starting point is 00:00:33 Oh, and not last week. True. And last week too. That's true, that's actually true. You gotta give me credit where credit is due. Last week was a bit of a mess. What? I would describe last week's drink as an undrinkable mess.
Starting point is 00:00:49 Well, innovation only happens on the fringe, Michael. Hey, you're telling me. I'm always in there in the kitchen making wacky, crazy shit happen. You should bring it on the pod sometime. I have. If I've made you raikou chai. I've made you chicken. What did I make you?
Starting point is 00:01:08 Artichoke? Oh, I like that blowout where you just made us dinner. Yeah, that was nice. Hey, we just had some dinner at Tim's. I was out in L.A. for a little bit. Not there now. We're not doing a live one. I did a little quick jump out for a show.
Starting point is 00:01:21 And thanks to everyone for coming to our show, Cigarette Club. Yeah, we were the house band at a variety show that was kind of cool huh hit it boys rock lobster why did we play rock lobster it was Lauren LaRose show and we did it and then we played a little set and thanks for people for coming out but anyway my point
Starting point is 00:01:41 is I'm not in LA now I'm back home back home safe and doing the cigarette club show in new york i believe so for the new york comedy fest how did you like being in la mike what was what were some of the highlights of your la visit highlights was probably night one scene, you know, getting off the plane, being very tired, thinking I'm going to say, oh, I hope no one wants to go out tonight so I can go to bed
Starting point is 00:02:10 and end up going out with you two and Neil and Fran and Mook showed up and some other people. We just had a grand time. That was the real highlight. More than a grand time. Two grand of a time a little bit. A festivillion time. We had a... Two grand of a time a little bit.
Starting point is 00:02:25 A festivillion time. That was a funny night for me. It was very fun. We went to the Dresden and there was a band playing and we got drunk and it was fun. But from my point of view, you know what? I similarly was not expecting it.
Starting point is 00:02:37 I was like, Hanford's coming out, but he worked all day. Then he flew across the country. He's going to be jet lagged and tired. He's not going to want to party too hard. So it's Friday afternoon. These two things were true, Tim. I go see Killers of the Flower Moon with Mitch and Mook.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Saw it last night. And then I go to eat dinner at Tacos 2 Madre, bump into Jeff and Chris. And then I'm eating dinner. I say, yeah, I'm going to have a huge lamb burrito. Why not? I know it's Friday night and it's late. Why not? But I'm not. I'm eating dinner. I say, yeah, I'm going to have a huge lamb burrito. Why not? I know it's Friday night and it's late. Why not? But I'm not hitting the town tonight.
Starting point is 00:03:11 I'm going to eat a giant pillowy lamb burrito. And then I'm going to go home and go to bed. This is lamb night. It's lamb night. Friday's lamb night. You know, Saturdays are for the boys. Friday nights are for lamb. But I had made that decision.
Starting point is 00:03:25 I'm going to wolf this whole burrito. I've already had a good day. I watched a great movie and I ate a lamb burrito. Because you're wolf the lamb. I like that, T. That's kind of good. Ooh, that's good. Hey, they should put a sign out front and say,
Starting point is 00:03:38 Wolf the lamb here at Tacos Tumadre. Ooh, yeah, yeah, that's good. But when Jeff says there's the buzz, Hanford wants to party, Neil andan are coming from a soccer game oh shit this is gonna be and then i i was like hearing this was what i'll be honest when it hit my ear just bad news my hands same my hands on my stomach so fun is gonna be had i didn't want fun tonight but here's what i had to do i i was i said mookie we gotta go home i gotta chug a red bull and take a real quick shower so i did i i rallied i i chugged i didn't have a red bull i usually have sugar-free red bull but i had a bing cherry
Starting point is 00:04:18 natural energy drink quick shower felt fantastic and then i but i get to the dresden and it just wasn't room in my stomach for drinks so uh uh we were like hey let's drink some digestives so i had six i had six frenets thinking that'll break down the lamborino you know but i never got drunk it just it just sort of piled up on top it's probably so oh for that's a sneaker-upper. I just never got drunk. So wait, I'm hearing that in fact, neither of you wanted to go out. No, it was hell. Physically, I did want to go.
Starting point is 00:04:53 Emotionally and mentally, yeah, of course. Of course. Okay. Well, I felt like Ari Gold on Entourage being like, yeah, Tim Hanford wants to go out. Hanford is interested. And meanwhile, Hanford is barely interested and he's hinging. He wants to hear that Tim wants to go out. Hanford is interested. And meanwhile, Hanford is barely interested. And he's hinging. He wants to hear that Tim wants to go out
Starting point is 00:05:07 and wants Mike to join him. Everyone's faking it for somebody else. I was in earlier this year, I was in Vegas with Ben. And we kind of leveled with each other. I've got hankering for Vegas right now. It sucks. Don't go to Vegas.
Starting point is 00:05:23 Go to Atlanta. Actually, no. I was going to say go to Atlantic City. Actually, remember, Mike, you wanted to go to Vegas for the 4th of July. And I was like, I'm on board,
Starting point is 00:05:32 but that's a weird thing to do. That's why I wanted to do it because I thought it would be a strange place to go for the 4th. It would be a rather novel. But I pitched you as an alt. I was like, let's go to, how about it? Like compromise Atlantic city or new Orleans.
Starting point is 00:05:49 There's like different vibes, but you can't gamble if that's what you want. And then you were like, no, I was actually like thinking of Vegas. And then it ended up not happening. But in the meantime, I did go to Atlantic city and apologies to the people of Atlantic city. Oh, it's, it's's like i thought it would be i thought it'd be grimy in the fun way uh down and out in a kitschy way no it was only sad and then i get there and i find out open container in the whole town that's my maybe my favorite that's what i love about vegas just walk around but vegas is. But Vegas is just the strip.
Starting point is 00:06:28 New Orleans and Atlantic City, it's citywide. But I was walking around and I was like, this isn't even doing it for me. Everyone here is frowning. This is a frown town, man. So wait, how's that different from El Paso? El Paso, you can't. Can you walk around with an open container in El Paso? I mean, I'd be surprised if you could have open containers in a car but not walk with them. Oh, right, right, right, right.
Starting point is 00:06:48 You could have a gun open carry. You could shoot people. I know that. I don't know, but Atlantic City, it's like you go into a casino and one room is sort of taped off or the carpet's wet. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Something weird happened. I stayed at Caesar's palace and they gave me a free upgrade like for 90 i was staying in like the huge like hangover suite like the mic
Starting point is 00:07:11 really big entourage suite for like 90 bucks and i was like it stinks it smells bad and it was like was it like cigarette smoke it was just a room type of smell? Yeah. Yeah, it was a room where smoking was allowed. Interesting. Anyway, I left and I went to Asbury Park. Well, now, hey, did you see your favorite man? Did you see the Mr. Bruce Springsteen man? That's like Mecca for Tim. That's good.
Starting point is 00:07:37 I'm Elvis Presley here to ask if you saw Bruce Springsteen. Did you see him? How? Did you see? What's Springsteen's? I guess the boss, but he doesn't have like the blank from blank, huh? The kid from? The boss from New Jersey.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Yeah. You got the king and then the boss, huh? And it trickles down from there. Geez, these guys are so obsessed with power. I did not see Bruce when I was in Asbury, but the night I arrived, there was a big Incubus concert at the Stone Pony. Oh, perfect. Did you go? No, I wanted to go back for Labor Day.
Starting point is 00:08:11 I wanted to see Southside Johnny and Asbury Jukes, but as you know, what did I do for Labor Day? I feel like we did a hopscotch or something like that. Oh, I didn't tell you. I saw Bruce recently. Bruce Valanche. Oh! All right, go ahead, Jeff. I tell you. I saw Bruce recently. Bruce Valanche. Oh! All right, go ahead, Jeff.
Starting point is 00:08:29 I cut you off for that. Go ahead. No, we should go to Dollywood sometime. Isn't that supposed to be fun? I've never been. I've never been. I've actually never... We should go to Hollywood.
Starting point is 00:08:38 I've heard of it, obviously, but I don't... It's got to be pretty crummy, because I never hear about it from anybody. Or hey, what about Neverland Ranch? Is that open? I went to a wedding in Santa Barbara wine country. And I was like, hey, I'm going to go snoop the Neverland Ranch. And it's creepy, man.
Starting point is 00:09:01 I drove right up to the gates. man like uh the i drove up right up to the gates and where there used to be like disneyland type flowers or like the sign that said uh neverland ranch that's gone but like the gate is still there and i i recognized it from the creepy doc and i said that's sad it's it's crazy because it's like you could see the gate and then there's a hill like he purposely bought a plot of land that's not visible from any roads he He had like a valley to himself. Oh, interesting. Creepy. Oh, we've been talking.
Starting point is 00:09:29 We just mentioned Entourage a couple times so far in this podcast. Last time we were together, we were like, oh, we should do a rewatch of that. Not the whole thing, but do a rewatch and see like what, how. Because of course it doesn't hold up or. It barely held up doesn't age well i'm sure right right but i'm curious to see just how because it's such a punch line everything i think it's the perfect amount of time because i think it was it was a hot show
Starting point is 00:09:56 and it was on we knew it was douchey but it was sort of like a you know a bit of a guilty pleasure watch because we'd be watching like curb and flight of the concords and we had just moved to la to try to get into like movies to be like ari and vince what kind of a party pooper are you if you get no pleasure at all from onto right and you know it's just it was like the male sex in the city so you like watched it and but then it's funny because then in the years that followed that show very quickly like aged poorly and and anyone with a brain would see how there's like problematic parts of it but i feel like at this point enough time has passed that it's like it's like a time capsule like the the cringe stuff wouldn't
Starting point is 00:10:38 be like freshly cringe it would be like look at this other era that was 20 years yeah right right like i'm i'm curious like how the music sounds or like who what uh musicians they are like like hey we're going to the blank concert i wonder if that would be right like the stuff that's cool because that show is packed with cameos like whoa my god we like we bumped into steve aoki or whatever you know yeah the time capsule factor is huge also hey folks if you're listening to the patreon this week you get to hear us discuss blink 182's new album one more time that was interesting that's kind of cool that was kind of kind of appropriate now wait uh what i wanted to say about uh entourage was oh it's not really i don't think i don't really think of it like we
Starting point is 00:11:20 weren't watching it as like a hate watch. It was more like a, yeah, it was, it's curious. Yeah. It's more just like, what, what are they going to like? What's the show's level of reality?
Starting point is 00:11:31 And I think there's something intriguing, like curiosity. Yeah. Like we loved curb and we, and we really liked a flight of the Concords, but I think what you're watching entourage, almost the way you would pick up a Maxim magazine and flip through, you're not going to be like, this represents me. Like you'd pick up a maxim magazine and flip through you're not going to be like this exactly like you'd pick up a magazine it's like i guess if you like you're if you're a
Starting point is 00:11:50 man and you're if you're looking through entourage i mean a maxim you're like well you know there's a lady in a bikini and here's a uh a fragrance i'm supposed to wear and here's an interview with a guy who's rich. A guy who's rich. But Maxim never made me feel good, but I was like, that and men's health, I'd be like, what are men up to? What are normal men up to? Because I'm a comedy writer. I don't think me and my friends are a great signifier
Starting point is 00:12:22 of what the dudes are up to these days. That would be a good week for us. We put on some ed hardy and eat some pink berry and watch some entourage that sounds great i would love to i i um i bumped into uh stand-up comedian joe out on the picket lines this summer and he and his wife just like are like obsessed with entourage and they've watched a million times and they followed the creator like through his other projects and his grumpiness about how he doesn't think like entourage has been canonized as the work it should be and stuff like that and it is it felt like there's some deep there have been podcasts and it's been revisited and there have been pitches for move like maybe a second movie or something but uh
Starting point is 00:13:06 joe was like in deep about it so wait who's the creator because i always thought it was like well i know mark walberg's involved i thought it was vinnie chase no it's some guy named david something something let's oh yeah david but like it's based on mark walberg's life right like he Like, he... Is it ever? I think that was probably the jumping off point, and then it went every which way. But then, like, you know, because Mark Wahlberg had an older brother who was an actor before.
Starting point is 00:13:35 Oh, yeah, who was in New Kids on the Block. Donnie. And the same way, so it's like we got Johnny Drama is sort of the Donnie. Ah. Yeah. Johnny Drama's very funny. Yeah, yeah well that'll be a fun watch he's fun johnny drama see what happens isn't it funny that uh uh walberg had to had to
Starting point is 00:13:54 pivot so hard like you're like yeah i was in la and i was a party boy and i was the ultimate play boy and i had my boys and my entourage and we did crazy shit and then now he's like yeah i wake up at 4 30 and i pray and i and i love my kids and i go to bed at 7 30 and i like it's it's that's a personality that has to be like extreme one or the other and he does like he does like an army dude movie every like two or three years yeah to like satisfy the base you know yep big time i think you know like the christ Christian Wright doesn't have too many movie stars to love, and he's one of them. Like, right? He's like a guy.
Starting point is 00:14:29 It's him and Chris Prine. Chris Pratt. Chris Prine. Well, Chris Prine and Chris Pratt together. They're the ultimate man. Well, just that, like, yeah, Chris Pratt is, like, they're both, like, kind of soft, but they're not, like, you know, like, I think there's the Jim Caviezel's and the Mel Gibson's if you're like want to be sort of intense about it. But then those guys are just like the nice men.
Starting point is 00:14:54 Yeah. Have you seen the like famous bad acting that's in The Happening? What's the M. Night movie? Oh, I never saw that one. No, wait. Yes. I was like the village. Yes. Happening. Happening. Yes's the M. Night movie? The Happening. Oh, I never saw that one. No, wait. Yes, I was looking at The Village. Yes, Happening, Happening. Yes, yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:15:09 If you search Mark Wahlberg, bad acting, The Happening, there's some good clips. A woman accuses him of like, you wanted to do this, like kill her or something like that. He's like, no, man, no. And it's the most uncommitted acting.
Starting point is 00:15:25 No, wait, wasn't that Signs? It was Signs. No. What? He's not in Signs. He's not in Signs. That's Joaquin and Mel. Yes, Joaquin.
Starting point is 00:15:37 Hey. Fiend. Speaking of Signs. You're right, Jeff. We were recently watching Scary Movie 3. Yes. And there was a a science parody among others but scary movie three cracked our shit it did we were laughing so hard it's good it's crazy it had jokes in it yes like good jokes it was like a machine gun of jokes we put it on being
Starting point is 00:15:58 like oh this will be funny for us to be watching but it was like nope this is just good it opens with it opens with jenny mccarthy and pam anderson doing like a um the ring parody and they had some just really funny jokes like whoever wrote that wrote to their strengths well done and like they i was talking to you guys in the moment i was like i've seen the bad version of this so many times where they get like Emily Ratajkowski to do a comedy and she sucks like those two can carry it if you if you give them something well it was like a scene they carried a scene sure sure and it's about them like fighting
Starting point is 00:16:36 they have a pillow fight or something but remember like there was one part where the girl's head gets chopped off and Pam Anderson's I think head gets chopped off and Pam Anderson's, I think, head gets chopped off. And Jamie Cullis is like, are you OK? Also, Charlie Sheen, extremely funny in that movie. Yes, Charlie Sheen doing like Leslie Nielsen level deadpan and just all the physical gags.
Starting point is 00:17:00 That's hard to like pull off. Don't you feel like when you're writing in a script i hesitate to put in jokes that are like oh and then the car backs into him and he flies out of the street or whatever like it feels lazy to write that stuff but then to if you're the zucker brothers or whoever what amalgamation of abrams and them was doing that but like you have the confidence to like write like he falls out the window and screams and that like it's a funny fall out the window and a funny scream it's well and he gets up fast like like that funny that funny punchy stuff that like people don't really do anymore unless you're
Starting point is 00:17:34 like edgar wright maybe no comedy is so loose and improv and long-ass conversations and it sounds like a commercial with no script now but like this was like tight tight taut yeah damn i'm looking at like because there was a handoff at some point ah i know the wayans had had their fingers in it and then also the zuckers uh so it's the wayans started it and i think the wayans came back they had a grand return afterwards i think yeah so it looks like one and two are directed by keenan ivory wayans three and four are directed by David Zucker. Got it. Huh.
Starting point is 00:18:08 Was there never a five? There was a five. Malcolm D. Lee. I don't know about that. That's when we started to get into, at that point, there was like... Oh, he did like Undercover Brother and Best Man and stuff. Date movie and epic movie and stuff like that, and they would say like, from three of the seven writers of that's fun they should do more comedies they were gonna do police academy what what happened to that remember they had announced like police academy 9 and they called
Starting point is 00:18:35 it police academy 9 instead of police academy parentheses 2022 or whatever i think that's funny to just like underline the shittiness of the franchise right we we live in an era that's always like oh it's it's like it's the reboot or it's the new generate or like where they're using the original title or like i love the idea of just like nine that's just being right and hey again to plug the patreon that's what the new blink album feels like it feels like a glossy Hollywood reboot. We go into... Yep. They're reusing practices in Hollywood.
Starting point is 00:19:13 Yeah, like getting Tom DeLonge back is like getting Jamie Lee Curtis back for the new Halloween. Yes. My word, I don't think we've had this long of shit chat in a long time. It's a good spirited shit chat. But now, Mike, I'm sorry to say it's time to pivot into a little segment we call Bit Bit Bit Booze News.
Starting point is 00:19:29 I'm fine with that. Bit Bit Booze News hit it. Welcome to Comedy Bang Bang for another week. My name is Scott Aukerman. I dreamed the other day that Tim Kalpakis was mad at me. He was angry and disappointed at me. And I was like, I let him down. I guess it's a fun novelty.

I don't know what they're talking about. And I felt, I feel like I've heard people say something about like me being mad at Scott Aukerman, but I didn't know.
Starting point is 00:21:31 I think that he said this on, on the, on comedy bang bang somewhat recently. But, um, I was like, ah, that makes sense.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Cause people have been like, just like things about like my feud with him. And I'm like, don't know what you're talking about. That's my old boss. He was mad at me and disappointed in me disappointed he let me i like the idea that scott let you let me down oh i let tim kelpack is down in real life i think he wouldn't give a flying fuck if he let me down but in dreamland he felt very it's keeping him up at night tim that's good uh no everything's
Starting point is 00:22:05 chilled between me and scott happy to report um speaking of reporting booze news right yeah yeah do you guys remember on this very podcast during this very segment i reported booze news about a new product endorsed by cardi b it was called whip shots yes alcoholic whipped cream yes yes i remember tim we heard about it and then i had seen some uh like trucks billboard trucks driving around town with with billboards of cardi b um cardi b cardi b and look we like to stick to proper talk here on the pod but I think Cardi B and whipped cream, there were sort of jizzy implications about it being
Starting point is 00:22:52 a whipped cream you know, kind of salacious I also said they should call it pussy whip yes, oh yeah they should have, they could just spitball they should call it pussy whop anyway after a long road of the rollout, check this Oh, yeah. That's another one. They could just spitball. They should call Pussy Wap. Anyway, after a long road of the rollout, check this out.
Starting point is 00:23:10 Booze, show and tell time. Look what I got. Oh, my God. Oh, wow. Vanilla. Vanilla. So it finally arrived. This has been out, but not stocked. I've been looking for it.
Starting point is 00:23:22 And it arrived this week at the los filas albertsons i chose vanilla because it was the classic they also had caramel and pumpkin spice oh everything's publicly spaced these days oh my god um but um i'm gonna go so alive and do a taste test this is yeah give us a live toot whip Whip shots, vodka-infused whipped cream, vanilla, ultra-premium vodka with natural and artificial flavors, and caramel coloring, 10% alcohol. So what else is 10% alcohol? Like a glass of wine? So if you finish the can, you'll feel a buzz. Okay, it's a 200-milliliter can, so 10% of that is 20
Starting point is 00:24:05 milliliters. It's pretty big. It's like the size of a shampoo bottle. It's like a hairspray bottle. Yeah, it looks like a big ready whip. It's a big bottle, but... Or a whipped cream bottle. Yeah, yeah. There's only 20 milliliters of vodka in here that's so little. Anyway, here we go. Pop the cap. It's all whipped air.
Starting point is 00:24:21 Turn it upside down. Well, whip it. He's doing a whip it. He's doing whippets over there? That was just air. Okay. It's all whipping air. Turn it upside down. Well, whip it. He's doing a whip it. He's doing whippets over there? That was just air. Okay. It's all just air. What are we doing wrong? That's how it makes up for the low ABV.
Starting point is 00:24:32 Is it supposed to be totally inverted, upside down? Slap it, turn it upside down, give it a few slaps, shake it. You didn't slap it. You didn't give it a few slaps. Oh, that's fun. The directions are like a Cardi B song. Slap it, shake it, move it around. Take me all the way downtown.
Starting point is 00:24:47 Hey, hey, hey. I'm in love with my boyfriend. Mike, that's really good. Hey, hey. I'm in love with my boyfriend. I'm in love with my boyfriend. Shaking, I'm shaking, I'm shaking. He's slapping the hell out of it, too.
Starting point is 00:25:05 Okay, listen to that shake. Yeah. Now I'm shaking. I'm shaking. He's slapping the hell out of it, too. Okay, listen to that shake. Yeah. Okay, now I'm slapping. Now I'm going to the dome. Getting his mouth all over that piece reminds me of Jeff never to have some of that when I go to his house. I didn't touch it.
Starting point is 00:25:19 It sounds great. It's like he's at the dentist. The listeners don't like chewing, but I wonder how they feel about this. Foam is okay. What? I got to do the slapping and shaking again? This is like a fucking job. Shaking.
Starting point is 00:25:37 Slapping. Don't like that. This is like a faulty fucking product. Yeah, I was just going to say, don't you hate yeah i was just gonna say don't you hate when you get something and it like doesn't work right away and you're just like fuck did i get a bad one or is this just how this thing works maybe you gotta build up the pressure fucking 14 dollars on my own amex not the slop llc card nice and here's the fucking... I bought my fall wardrobe with my Sloppy Boys LLC card. I'm hearing a lot of gas.
Starting point is 00:26:08 A lot of gas escaping the can. That just like bubbled out some liquid. Okay, so if you're wondering about the taste, it's a sweet, sweet, sweet vanilla whipped cream that also you taste vodka at the same time. So that's what it tastes like.
Starting point is 00:26:24 So we're putting this on top of an espresso martini? This isn't the main ingredient. This is supposed to be decor. The last little dribble. Yeah, is this going on top of an espresso or not? I don't know, man. I don't know about this. I feel like you could put normal whipped cream
Starting point is 00:26:44 on top of your cocktail. Did you really shake it? It's kind of fun straight to the dome. Is it out of gas? How much shaking? Like, is this fun? You're not shaking over here being like, I want to be like Cardi B. No, you look miserable.
Starting point is 00:26:57 Maybe this is just like in the first moment. I'm not getting paid to do this. Look, if you get all the gas out of it, you should break the can open and scoop out the rest of the goods. Yeah, you gotta shake it, slap it, flip it around. Last chance. Here we go. It's dribbling.
Starting point is 00:27:16 Drooling. Ooh, nasty. Is that sexy when you guys watch me doing that? No. No, sir. Okay, I'm gonna go, I'm going to say tastes good. It tastes like a sweet dessert with vodka in it.
Starting point is 00:27:32 But due to the faulty engineering, I give it a do not order again. Wow. Wow. Tea, that's good booze news. I love your music. You gotta have everything working. Yep. Everyone take note. You gotta have it working. I have a little bit of booze news. That's good. I love your music. You gotta have everything working. Yep.
Starting point is 00:27:46 Everyone take note. You gotta have it working. I have a little bit of booze, sort of not booze news, but it's an update. Mike, this one's for you. Ooh. I have an update about Deadpool 3.
Starting point is 00:27:58 Ooh, yes. When's it coming out? I don't know. That's not the news. Okay, okay, go ahead. This isn't an open forum where you ask me questions about Deadpool 3. I should just be happy there's any news about Deadpool. I bring you one precious nugget.
Starting point is 00:28:11 Are you ready? Before you share the news, I just want to say that I hate Ryan Reynolds. I think he sucks. He's not funny. Okay, Tim, we've heard your opinion about Ryan Reynolds many times. This is exciting for me. We know you're not partial to geek shit either, Tim. Yep. True.
Starting point is 00:28:26 But I think you will be interested to know this tidbit. Hell yeah. There is a character, a mutant, named Dazzler. You've heard? Yeah, sure. Dazzler, yeah. No. Dazzler in the Marvel Universe is a pop star whose mutant power is to turn sound into light
Starting point is 00:28:44 blasts. Whoa. into light blasts. Whoa. And energy blasts. Now you're telling me they're going to do this in the show practically? Rumor has it, Ryan Reynolds has tapped a real life pop star to play Dazzler. Any guesses? Yeah, I'm just seeing it now.
Starting point is 00:29:01 You Googled? Well, I just Googled Dazzler and this is news that come up comes up you could tell that you could say this oh oh you want his clue okay now this pops this real life pop star is no stranger to the multiplex these days oh taylor swift taylor she's friends with uh with blake lively and ryan and reynolds They go to the Chiefs games together. They do? That's right. They went to the Jets game, at least, I think.
Starting point is 00:29:30 Okay. Now, this casting is unconfirmed, but the director is being a little coy boy about it. So I think we can expect to see Taylor once again in cinemas. Now, isn't Swifty going to be directing a movie soon? Yes. Whatever happened with that? I bet it's happening. I don't know happening and she has
Starting point is 00:29:45 director credit on you know on on she directed eras i guess i shouldn't say she credit she did direct it but could you imagine she she's got that eras movie which by the way we're doing uh next week's blow up next week's blow up tim you were you were saying something i feel like i'm cutting everybody off i'm tired all i want to say if i could get a word in edgewise once in my life i never get to talk on this part most weeks i sit here silently and it's like great show guys see you next week there's a weird thing with like big musicians not translating to movies like taylor swift is probably the most famous person on the planet and then she was in cats you know what i mean and it was stupid and it looks stupid oh right right right it's there's just a strange like beyonce yeah foxy cleopatra
Starting point is 00:30:33 sure she was foxy cleopatra but like did you i saw a movie called like cadillac records um about a uh like record label that and she played uh etta james oh okay i went to it think i went to like an early screening on the on the sony lot thinking like well this is gonna be beyonce stepping into being a movie star and it was just like kind of a bad movie and she was overacting and it sucked and like well is this after dream girls after or before dream girls wasn't she like nominated for dream it was before it was before dream girls yeah you're right but your point stands tim it's a weird transition but even yeah i didn't see dream girls but even that did more for eddie murphy than it did for her you know like there's a weird thing like elvis in his movie
Starting point is 00:31:20 career and like madonna like there's something crossroads. Yeah. Like when the, when the world knows you as yourself, they can't really accept you as a character. It's because, uh, like songs are so personal. We all know them as that thing.
Starting point is 00:31:36 And then to play a character is like, well, we know you're not whoever this character is supposed to be. Right. Except like, I will actually, maybe this is, maybe this is, uh, to your point, Mike, I will actually, maybe this is, maybe this is a,
Starting point is 00:31:45 to your point, Mike, I was going to say Lady Gaga did okay with star is born. That's true. But she's playing very, very similar to Gaga. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:55 Right. That's probably why she's playing a, Oh man. I was at Starbucks this morning. And Whitney Houston. Oh, Whitney bodyguard. There you go bodyguard yeah that's huge she's playing it she's playing you have to play a musician yeah anyway and a musician
Starting point is 00:32:13 has to play his instrument even eminem dude yeah i mean like that's autobiographical what the fuck we're catching we're we're figuring out a thing here the pop star cannot transition unless yeah you just do it 10 degrees off because lady gaga hasn't even like house of gucci or whatever didn't work out for her that was just the harley quinn's not gonna work out for her no it might you never yeah but isn't that a musical that's a musical who? I didn't like the first Joker. I don't think we'll buy her as... Wait, wait. Lady Gaga is playing Harley Quinn? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:49 Yeah. I don't think that'll work. She's too big of a thing on her own, and that character is a big thing on its own. It's too much. Yeah. Sorry. Yeah, it is funny.
Starting point is 00:32:58 Like the Harley Quinn... They already have Margot, but like this is like the Joaquin verse. You know what I mean? No, I get it, but it's like the like, this is like the Joaquin verse. You know what I mean? No, I get it. But it's like the Margo one was too huge. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:09 That like, we don't, we all kind of think about her. And it's like not a different enough choice. You're like, it's, you know, like if you're like, you know, the old Harley Quinn, but now we're going to do a different thing. And it's like a different blonde famous lady from. Get Helen Mirren to do it. Yeah. Get Helen Mirren to do it. There, get Helen Mirren to do it.
Starting point is 00:33:25 There you go. They should have a... That would be funny to have like a... Or not funny, but fun to have like an old... An older actor do kind of a younger villain role. Get Meryl Streep in there. That'd be fucking crazy. Why not?
Starting point is 00:33:38 That'd be cool to see Streep actually do good acting. Oscar winning actors doing Joker. Have a dude Harley. Yeah. Quinn. But anyway. actually do good acting Oscar winning actors doing Joker have a dude Harley yeah Quinn but anyway playing against type though Jeff you'd have to admit yeah you would have to admit that is a good point can we get out of booze news it's
Starting point is 00:33:55 getting late fellas wrap it up sure all right that's it for booze news duck hunt duck hunt duck hunt all right you guys want to get into the drink of the day yeah yeah it's a special one yeah yes the drink of the day the fall highball the fall highball you had no i've not had the fall highball never had this is just, I've not had. The fall highball.
Starting point is 00:34:25 Never had. This is just how I'm just hearing about it now. You heard? I heard about it on the text chain today. Well, let me set the scene for you. Let me give you a little bit of a vibe so you can catch a vibe. Don't catch feelings, but catch a vibe don't catch feelings but catch a vibe um because cuffing season approaches tim very true jeff go ahead and give me a little bit of a
Starting point is 00:34:53 autumnal background music how's this here we go oh i like that that's nice. I feel very cozy and snuggly here. So it's November 2023. Taylor Swift is banging Travis Kelsey. The Golden Bachelor is charming the nation's milfs. Marty and Leo are awaiting Oscar gold. And everyone everywhere is talking about the fall high ball. You go for a walk outside in the crisp air. The wind whips. My hat, no.
Starting point is 00:35:36 The leaves crunch underfoot. But it's all drowned out by one thought in your head. One circular, intrusive, maddening thought. The Fall Highball! Actually, that's actually... Jeff, give me a little echo on that one. The Fall Highball! You run home.
Starting point is 00:36:04 An old owl. An owl squawks at you. Ha! You get home. You walk into your living room and you park your big fat ass right by the crackling fire. And you pour yourself... The Fall highball! You take a sip.
Starting point is 00:36:29 But how? How do you pour it? Go ahead, Tim. Wait, you do the pour sound. Go, Jeff. No, I meant like, how do you make it, but I'll do... Yeah, I know. Yes, when you're finished pouring, you take a sip of the fall highball.
Starting point is 00:36:43 And you think about a gourd and it occurs to you that maybe fall 2023 ain't so bad after all maybe life could be quite beautiful once in a while if you actually
Starting point is 00:36:57 take the time to stop and have the fall highball which is a drink that is not on the IBA cocktail list because I invented it. And here is the recipe. Two ounces of whiskey,
Starting point is 00:37:15 apple soda to top. And when I say apple soda, I'm saying I'm going to use this Mexican glass bottle soda you see at bodegas called Sidral Mundet. But you can also use the, there's a can of Taiwanese soda called Apple Sidra. There's Martinelli's Sparkling Cider. Any one of those work? Martinelli's, that's a classic one.
Starting point is 00:37:40 Yeah, but I did get the, I got the, what's the Mundal? The Grundle. Mundet. Sidra mundet yeah like you know you got the mexican cokes and the haritos and the and the and the minaragwas all those the tamarins and the minute and yeah that's right there were those and then uh whiskey i just i i was it would have said like bourbon, but I was like, no, if you like Irish whiskey, that works. If you like scotch or rye, it works. It's a simple drink and all you do is you pour your whiskey into a highball glass filled with ice,
Starting point is 00:38:14 top up with apple soda and sip while thinking about a gourd. I know what specific gourd I'm going to think about. Yeah, you got one lined up. What type of gourd? Pumpkin.
Starting point is 00:38:27 Classic pumpkin. No, not classic. One of those huge fat ones that looks like they're spilling all over the table. Yeah. I'm going to do one that looks like a dildo, like a big yellow misshapen dildo kind of one. And me, I'm going to do a pumpkin, but not the kind you can carve the the little squat one that's more horizontal than it is vertical oh that's a nice i like those now small minor side note is that i invented this drink i've been drinking it i like it in the fall i wanted to call it the leaf
Starting point is 00:39:00 peeper then i googled and found many many many cocktails called the leaf peeper. Then I Googled and found many, many, many cocktails called the leaf peeper. So that's why this one is called the fall high ball. Very different. Great. Very different. Sure. Different, different, different pronunciation.
Starting point is 00:39:17 Mike, Mike, what type of apple soda did you say you got? Martinelli's sparkling. Classic. To all the slop heads out there that can find any of these apple sodas apple juice and club soda apple cider and club soda you know you can you this is a nice simple drink so you're you can tweak you can customize it's customizable
Starting point is 00:39:39 how do you fizz fall high ball and hey you have the means, get yourself a fresh apple and squeeze it until the juice comes out. There you go. Get out to the orchard. Now, Tim, I want to thank you, unbeknownst to you, maybe, you're delivering me on this podcast my birthday gift. It is upon release of this podcast, it's my birthday. Michael, happy birthday. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:40:09 Thank you. We're recording before. There's no better way to celebrate another year of our Lord without the Fall Highball. The perfect birthday for people with fall birthdays. It's so perfect.
Starting point is 00:40:22 That's great. That's great. I'm excited. Really good. Nice. It's a big time of year for me. You're turning perfect. That's great. That's great. I'm excited. Really good. Nice. It's a big time of year for me. You're turning 21? That's right. So I'm now allowed to drink these drinks that we're making. Oh, perfect.
Starting point is 00:40:33 Oh, the fall eyeball. The fall eyeball. Yeah, I would like to make the fall eyeball. Great. You're going to go make them right now? Yeah, you're talking about the fall eyeball? This is going to be a fast them right now? Yeah, you're talking about the Fall Highball? This is going to be a fast and furious one. Yeah, we're talking about the Fall Highball.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Why don't we take a little break? This will be good. The listeners can listen to the ads. And then when we come back, we'll have the Fall Highball in hand. Well, no, wait. The listeners, the foolish ones who haven't bought into the Patreon. Yes, right, right, right. Thank you, Mike.
Starting point is 00:41:02 Because you're talking about ad-free episodes available. Ad-free on the Patreon. Fools who listen to the ads here. They have to listen to the ads. But then if you plunk down the money, you get to skip the ads. How about that? And you get a whole bunch of other shit too,
Starting point is 00:41:15 but we've already talked about that. All right. Well, folks, why don't you listen to those ads and we'll meet you right back here after this. And we're back with Fall Highball! Since it's such an easy drink
Starting point is 00:41:39 to make, T, I thought I would do a live pour here on the pot. I'll give the listeners a little fall treat. Oh, that's nice. Here I come with the Cedral Mundet. Good looking bottle, huh? Let me see that bottle. Look at that logo.
Starting point is 00:41:55 Yeah. Oh, that's nice. Get yourself a t-shirt with that on. Cedral Mundet. Oh, listen to that. Not Cedral Mundle like we were saying hey great to meet you sidral mundle sidral mundle i don't think i want to drink anything called mundle sidral mundit i keep wanting to say that it's like idris alba or something
Starting point is 00:42:19 sidral mundet i'm guessing is that spanish say it. Cedral Mundet. Is that Spanish? No, it can't be. Yeah, why not? It simply can't. I'm going to Google, and I think it's made in Mexico. It's made by Jarritos, right? Yeah, you're right. It is. Damn. I know that Manzana is an apple in Spanish, so I don't know what this is.
Starting point is 00:42:40 Look at this. Cedral Mundet is a Mexicanican soda it's been made for 115 years that's how old that soda is tim's drink is historically significant yes folks go to a like a latin supermarket or a bodega you'll you'll find it picture in your town where you'd get a glass bottle of coca-cola where you'd get a glass bottle of Coca-Cola, where you would get a tamarind soda and go. And this one, it's an unsung hero of the refrigerator place. Now, I went to, when I got my Martinelli sparkling apple juice,
Starting point is 00:43:22 I looked in the sodas first and I didn't find any. I said, and this happens to me before I go, ah, sometimes these tricky ones are in the juice aisle, but not the cooled juice aisle, not in the cool cabinets. You go to the hot juice. Yeah. Well, Martinelli's will also be in the liquor section because it's like champagne for kids. Yes, you're right, right, right.
Starting point is 00:43:42 Martinelli's is always just like it's the it's the new year's eve and you want to make a little kid feel like they're having champagne and it's basically seasonal so it could be with the seasonal stuff too you never know jeez damn you know what jeff i well let's do sips and then i was yes yeah this is stressing me out i need a drink of the fall what is it the fall highball. Highball. That's right. It rhymes. I got stuck on leaf peeper.
Starting point is 00:44:09 Ooh. Stiff. Ooh. Yep. That'll happen with the fall highball. Oh, that's nice, Tim. Wait. Are you thinking about a gourd?
Starting point is 00:44:24 Oh, wait. Sorry. Sorry. I forgot about that. Now I am. Now I am. That's balanced tea. You know what?
Starting point is 00:44:38 This is a perfect candidate for our listeners to go out and record themselves ordering this at a bar. Because, you know, you say something like the Black Lagoon, they'd be like, oh, okay, you can tell me the ingredients. I don't have eel sauce. But this one's a very easy one to say, oh, all you need is, oh, they might not have the apple juice. And that bartender wishes they had the eel sauce. They like the idea of the drink.
Starting point is 00:45:04 They probably would even enjoy it. Yeah, but they're not going to have apple juice either. Damn. Now guys, I got to be honest though. I'm drinking this right now. Go out and order it anyway. I don't care. Apple soda is the thing that trips people up. Is your apple coming through? And I'm curious between it, because I've had it.
Starting point is 00:45:19 It is, but it's not like full on. I'm not in Mott's mode, you know? You're not in Mott's. How You know, you're not. You're not. How different is this tasting to you than a whiskey ginger or just a highball? Yeah, different. Particularly different. I'm tasting that. I'm tasting that apple juice.
Starting point is 00:45:39 Because I was I'm using Jim Beam, which I had left over from one of our drinks. And I I'm I'm losing a little bit of apples. And I did the other day I made one of these with brandy because I was thinking what else is whiskey-esque and I was thinking of Wisconsin supper clubs brandy old fashions but the brandy I had was like ENJ like grand blue
Starting point is 00:45:58 and it was like a vanilla brandy but I'm thinking for round two of this I might try I have a different brandy that I could try and see if that brandy's a little sweeter than than and a little less woody than whiskey and maybe that'll help it i don't want to lose the apple in my fall highball maybe instead of a highball glass if you put this in the pint glass and you really made a big one you get more apple in your fall highball yeah yeah i like that you restated your thesis halfway through just to make sure people are working maybe vodka with the fall highball
Starting point is 00:46:31 vodka and apple no no this is the you got the whiskey's the fall thing too the woody browns is what you want on the right well as long as you guys because i had it with martinelli's and i and it's very simple i think you guys are drinking two very similar drinks. And if you're getting apple, then I'm happy. You know, I might add just a little bit more apple just to make sure I get it. Yeah. Yeah. That's why it's nice to be important to put in a high ball.
Starting point is 00:46:55 Now, should I have dialed it down? This is like, I'm barely tasting the whiskey in this. I mean, it's like very subtle on both. Well, then that's good. Then that, I think, okay, here's what, Mike, Mike, you're drinking from a beer glass that's one of those can-shaped, and that might be, that's maybe the move. Maybe you get a big
Starting point is 00:47:12 glass. Jeff, what are you drinking from, your palm glass? Yeah, but a highball, like this is 12, these are 12 ounces because it's a can. I guess it's probably the same. It's got to be about the same thing you guys have. Yeah, but volume-wise, but it doesn't have that narrow, narrow top to keep all your carbonation, Mike.
Starting point is 00:47:30 This is what we learned. Remember? Yeah, your bubbles are getting off all into your apartment. It's not that much wider than a highball. No, it's good. The point is, I don't own a highball. I need to... Jeff was what I was in his house.
Starting point is 00:47:44 That's the point. That's the real... The point is, I don't own a highball. I need to... Jeff was telling me, go to Ikea and get some cheap glasses and that's what I gotta do. Or Target. Because I got too many fucking plastic cups. Hey, I just had a small breakthrough on the pod. Here I am since I did the live pour.
Starting point is 00:48:02 I have the remnants of my Sajral Mandet. Now you know what I'm thinking. Here I am since I did the live pour. I have the remnants of my Cedral Monday. Oh. Now you know what I'm thinking. This is the narrowest glass of all. Look how narrow. Oh, shit. What if you did a...
Starting point is 00:48:13 I don't know what the proportions would be. What if you did a spaghetti approach to the very glass bottle? Oh, shit. A fucking ranch water style. Fuck. A popo no-no version of this that you take on a hayride.
Starting point is 00:48:26 You're telling me you take a big glug out of your apple soda, you pour the whiskey in, and then you go for a leaf peeper walk and you look at the fall foliage while you drink your fall highball. You go out there in the autumn season for a rustly ramble.
Starting point is 00:48:42 And you know what that rustly crunchy is coming from? The leaves. The dead leaves on the dirty ground. The spring is br rustly ramble. And you know what that rustly crunchy is coming from? The leaves. Dead leaves on the dirty ground. The spring is bramble ramble. The fall is a rustly ramble. Rustly ramble? Well, whatever. You're out in a ramble and you hear,
Starting point is 00:48:57 you're like, ooh, it sure is autumnal. And then even scarier, you hear, popo. But you turn around and they see it's just cedral mundet the police are like oh you of course you're just out drinking cedral mundet like any other young person out here in the street you must be a move along move along you must be on a rustly ramble okay fine i really like that i gotta say i feel like mine is perfectly balanced.
Starting point is 00:49:25 I am getting apple and I am getting woody whiskey and it's perfect. But I also think, yeah, like taking a big glug out of the bottle, pouring it right in there. It'll make sure it's apple-y. And then you're walking around with a popo. No, no, this is smart, Jeff. I really like that. Glass bottle out in the fall. Wake up early on a Saturday morning.
Starting point is 00:49:44 Go get drunk. You're watching your little brother's soccer game. you don't have to do it in the morning folks but no you know you're watching your little brother's soccer game and they're having apple cider donuts but then you are drunk and no one knows but you're 21 though yeah you're 21 you're 21 i think this would even taste good just with apple juice. Oh, like a Mott's. And no bubbles. No bubble.
Starting point is 00:50:12 Yeah, but top it with a little bit of soda, and that'll make it a fall highball. Now, Mike, I just wish to God I could taste what you had, because cider's got a little more bite, doesn't it? Oh, this is juice. This is apple juice. Sparkling apple juice? Martinelli's? Yeah, sparkling, not cider.
Starting point is 00:50:26 Oh. Cider would be good, though. I've never seen that bottle. I've never seen that either. That's not what I was picturing. I thought you had the champagne bottle, which is cider. This is a different thing. This is maybe the organic.
Starting point is 00:50:38 Holy shit. That's why it's different. That looks like an 80s health food store type of bottle. Yeah, it's like boring text or boring font. Organic sparkling apple juice. 100% juice. Hmm. This is making me think, though, cider, like classic fall cider with a very warm, very woody bourbon, burgundy.
Starting point is 00:51:03 Not burgundy. Let him cook, Tim. He's on his way okay i'm this is giving me an idea for my new drink for next episode but no it's true because whiskey and apple cider cider is to cider is like the ginger beer versus apple juice would be like the ginger ale now you got how would it's more stank. Yeah, right. For the drink. How would cider, whiskey,
Starting point is 00:51:30 and a little bit of lime do? Hmm. Lime? Maybe lemon. I'll give you lemon. Lemon? I'll give you ginger. Ooh. Yeah, lemon would be closer to the whiskey sour. Okay. Sour. This is interesting. Interesting, interesting. Background sour. Background sour. Oh is interesting. Interesting, interesting. Background sour.
Starting point is 00:51:46 Background sour. Oh, hey, speaking of this. Oh, never mind. I'm going to save it for the blowout. Ooh. I'm saving some stuff up for the blowout too. Good stuff. Guys, how about this? You know apple cider in the big gallon jug?
Starting point is 00:52:01 Of course. What if you do a Borg with it? Oh, shit. A big Borg. You're fucking onto something, Tim. I love that. The Fall High Borg. The Fall High Borg. How about in the
Starting point is 00:52:17 Christmas time you do a Borg eggnog? Borg. I don't think I'd like that very much. It could be a half gallon. Milk was a bad choice. Just a half gallon of eggnog. Another thing I got,
Starting point is 00:52:33 I got myself some dirty martini mix because I've been making martinis lately. I've never had this brand. It's called S&R Tipsy. I like the look of that bottle. So wait, is it olive brine or is that mix like it's got vermouth in it too?
Starting point is 00:52:51 We need to specify what's in there. Oh, yeah, good call. It looks fancy. I'm hoping it doesn't have vermouth. I trust it, but what does that mean? Is it olive juice? Ingredients, olive brine, water, salt. Yeah, that's it. It's just olive brine.
Starting point is 00:53:04 And salt water. And salt water. water, salt. Yeah, that's it. It's just olive brine. And salt water. And salt water. But what I'm going to do is, for the blowout, I'm going to make a martini with this. I'm not going to do it now. That's fun. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:20 Because this was my gift today. Your gift. Your birthday gift. Yeah, still waiting on the birthday gift from you, Tim. I know that Black Lagoon wasn't a gift. That's a bad gift, Jeff. Think of it this way, Mike. Now you have eel sauce for life. Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 00:53:37 My mom just texted me actually while we were doing this. She said, eel sauce? Disgusting. And I said, well, there's not eel in it. So I don't know if she knows what eel sauce is. Still disgusting janet's a slophead oh yeah hi mom hi janet so fellas it's getting to be about that time where we talk about what would you tweak um here's the thing well you guys go first because as the author of the drink, I shouldn't go first. Sure, sure. Well, I kind of had my little innovation, which was like make a big old giant one. You would maybe need to add like three or four ounces, though, to that.
Starting point is 00:54:13 Right, because that's a lot of soda. That's a lot of soda. That's fun. Take a big old glug. I'm thinking something. Yeah. I'm thinking like this is really good. I won't spoil anything, but I wouldn't mind drinking one of these again.
Starting point is 00:54:28 But I will say, what if you added something with a little spice to it? Like, even just, like, cinnamon. Spice. Something cinnamony. A little dash of cinnamon, a little dash of nutmeg? Yeah. Is there a liquid version? I'm just thinking of...
Starting point is 00:54:42 Guys, when I was in the test kitchen, I put a dash of Angostura bitters and it was delicious, but it definitely... It drowned out the apple and made it taste more just like some other really good cocktail. Okay. Huh.
Starting point is 00:54:55 Okay. Which is allowed. I mean, drinking a really good cocktail is not a bad experience. Yeah, it's not a bad experience. Also, Yule Mule, we put a little nutmeg, I think, on top of
Starting point is 00:55:05 soda sure which was odd it was odd um oh right it kind of just floated around so i don't here's what i wanted to say as the author of the drink i'm trying i'm going i'm thinking putting this up there with the russian root and the calpe cordial of simple two ingredient drinks but i also want you to know wait what was what was the other one, Tim? There was another one. You had a peach schnapps porch sipper. Oh, the Southern Sipper is equal parts whiskey and peach schnapps, little dash of Peychaud's bitters.
Starting point is 00:55:36 And you drink it alone in the dark. Alone in the dark. And that's a very good drink, and I stand by that one. I stand by all of them. But I just want to say about the the fall highball is that i was gonna here's what i am i i mentioned i might try brandy and you can do that and then it's a brandy fall highball but here's what i'm gonna do i have some crown royal apple you know i love crown oh and i have their apple flavor and i haven't tried it yet
Starting point is 00:56:03 but i don't think that needs apple soda added to it, so I'm just going to do that. It's Canadian blended whiskey, but I'll just do apple whiskey, and then I'm going to top it with just club soda, and I'm going to see if that also gives us a fall high. Because I just want anything that's a boozy apple soda is a fall highball, so you can play around. You can have fun.
Starting point is 00:56:24 You can express yourself. Yeah, yeah, that's nice because a highball in the can you can play around you can have fun you can express yeah yeah that's nice because a highball in the old days was just like a whatever drink exactly a highball just means liquor and soda you know we talked about how ted kennedy had eight highballs the night of the chappaquiddick incident we didn't know did that was that rum and cokes was it whiskey gingers was it whiskey soda we don know, but it was highballs. I was, you know, I was saying cinnamon before. I think I really wanted to say brown
Starting point is 00:56:52 sugar. Ooh, how come you taste so good? Hey, maple syrup. Yeah, yeah. Ooh, that's good. Yeah, that's good. That's exactly. One step further. Molasses? Yeah, why not? Yeah, maybe a little teriyaki.
Starting point is 00:57:07 Why not? Sure, sure. Put a whole olive in there. That's the sludgiest black food you have. I'm going to go check out what's in my test kitchen. And it'll be exciting to see what we have when we come back. Great. Okay.
Starting point is 00:57:21 Bye, folks. Peace. great okay bye folks peace and we're back with our final round of fall highball look what I found oh maple syrup a little thing of vermont maple syrup and you know what got me thinking tim when you say i'm missing the apple what are you really saying i think you're saying a little sweetness i think that's the dominant apple flavor the apple overlooked as a flavor despite being kind of the kind of the alpha fruit right you
Starting point is 00:58:07 know yeah true it's red it begins with a it's sort of the alpha like that's the first fruit you learn as a kid as kids there was sour apple candy and green apple but not just like apple and it's weird it's the king of the king of the fruit it's the king of the classroom king it's kind of it's only it's only its best form is its original form is that true is that part of your final thoughts i think so what are you talking just apples what if you just walk around town with a bottle of a jug of whiskey and an apple going back and forth that's kind of cool yeah hey look what i just found i forgot about this and i didn't use it in my round two drink but this little 99 apples nip that i talked about in booze oh yeah nice little core thing if
Starting point is 00:58:50 you go into a bodega and you find this and you find a soda to mix it with you could be good but what i did was i hear i have a high ball that is crown royal apple and club soda did you try it um no i will i took a sip of the crown royal apple it was delicious now let's try this yeah oh yeah that's very crisp very nice not very sugary but this is better this is better uh wait so that's crown royal apple and what just normal club soda normal soda plain club soda damn i'll do a little sip of my um i just did like a two count or three count of just a little dribble of the maple syrup and it's very good ah. Still very good. I made no changes. You stand by your work.
Starting point is 00:59:50 Mm-hmm. I stand by my work. Well, do you order it again, Mike, though? Yes, I do. Yeah. You know what I like is that you can basically make two and a half cocktails out of one Cedral Mundit. Yeah, not bad. And I think that was a huge moment figuring out that you could do a uh walkie talk uh no no no no i would say go to a go to a convenience store
