Nothing is over. You know what? I watched Cobra the other day. You guys ever see Cobra? I have seen that movie. It's Sly Stallone is like a trucker. It's like a cheesy action movie, right? He's like a bad-ass right he's like a badass cop he's oh tim he's he's
Starting point is 00:01:25 the best detective on the force but here's the thing his his methods aren't you know what you might be used to he's not by the book no doesn't he doesn't he like live in a boat or something or on the beach something something like like on a pier and he cuts pizza with scissors yeah he lives on a pier that's right that's roman. Yeah. He lives on a pier. That's right. That's Roman style. Now, does he, am I thinking of Over the Top or is this one where he has aviator shades on the poster and there's a- Aviator shades on the poster.
Starting point is 00:01:52 Yeah. Hell yeah. He's ripped. And what I learned about that movie- Ripped and dipped in oil. He was originally attached to Beverly Hills Cop, the Eddie Murphy movie. Ah, yes. And he was like, no, I've got to be tougher
Starting point is 00:02:05 and there's got to be more action and do all this. And they said, you know, Sly, maybe it's best we don't do this together. And they... Did they say it's over? It's over. Nothing's over. And so they were like,
Starting point is 00:02:21 we're going to stick with our cop comedy and you can go do your thing. Cobra is what he wanted to do with Beverly Hills Cop. Hey, speaking of film talk, I saw a movie I liked. Another one besides Room 2. I did not suspend my disbelief. I did not. I did not feel the characters were real people, but I enjoyed a movie.
Starting point is 00:02:43 You watch some actors. Well, can I just say movie. You watched some actors? Well, can I just say this before we get away from me saying room two? Room two, the patio adventure. Okay, go ahead. The veranda years. Because the patio comes off of the room. Right.
Starting point is 00:02:59 The patio's off the room and they, what's out there? Tim, can I guess? Yeah. Saltburn? No, poor things oh yes laughed my ass off yeah who's that guy your thos a good greek filmmaker your thos the lying length the most yeah he's he's good i mean i love the the the favorite but then this is a funny ass stylized laugh out loud. You know, I love it when in this movie, Emma Stone is funny as fuck, but then also Mark Ruffalo. Ruffalo?
Starting point is 00:03:35 I'm thinking of Ruffalo's pizza. I'm thinking of Ruffalo's Ruffles, Ruffle Chips. Mark Ruffalo is making me laugh. I really appreciate. I really don't like when when the handsome actor guys are trying to be funny and we all know i love leo leo leonardo dicaprio is maybe my favorite sketch comedian because of because of once upon a trailer scene where in the eight goddamn fucking whiskey sours in one time in hollywood because good stop at three
Starting point is 00:04:02 or four and and the quaalude sequence in wolf of wall street so leo's my favorite sketch comedian now but uh mark ruffalo was making me laugh with some funny dancing and stuff i was like damn handsome guy making me laugh how did defoe do he's cool defoe did well it's a foe do or a defoe don't it's a defoe do or a defoe don't. It's a defoe do. Yeah, for sure. You know, I keep a running tally on my wall. He's up to another defoe do. I'm excited to see that movie. Excuse me, that movie and Salt Burn.
Starting point is 00:04:36 I haven't seen it yet. But is that a gross movie? No, you're burp. He caught it though. He caught it a little belch. Oh, jeez. Mike, we caught you. Yeah, caught me in 4 belch. Oh jeez. Mike we caught you. Yeah caught me in 4k. Hey everyone welcome to BelchPod
Starting point is 00:04:48 all the orifices are certainly flexing and spurting and squirting. This week the fart. Oh god that sucked. Folks tuning in just now the new years all the new years this isn't a normal episode. New years
Starting point is 00:05:04 new years. What I was going to say is I haven't seen those movies yet and I will see them because Folks tuning in just now, the New Years, all the New Years. This isn't a normal episode. New Years, New Years. What I was going to say is I haven't seen those movies yet, and I will see them because I'm hearing good things about them, but I don't know much about them, and I don't want to know anything about them. Going fresh. I'm just hearing that Salt Burn is a little sexual at times, and I'm hearing also poor things. It's funny now. That's good.
Starting point is 00:05:21 Salt Burn, I have managed to avoid the big, like, because everyone is, is a, well, I wouldn't even say it for you, Mike, but like there's a specific scene that everyone keeps talking about and
Starting point is 00:05:32 referencing, like around, around our county doing the earmuffs and trying to not hear what happens in the scene. But people have just, we'll say, Oh, I won't spoil it for you,
Starting point is 00:05:39 but blank. Oh, I won't spoil. And then now I've pieced all the blanks together. That's see people don't do that i know why why don't people enjoy that but here's the thing everybody wants to give you a little tease so that they can be the one to say like oh i told him but i didn't tell him but then they're not accounting for that there's five more of you and i can aggregate the parts that you're
Starting point is 00:06:00 all leaving out there's more of you out there those people that want to feel like they're like presenting that moment to me. Like when I finally watched the movie, I'm not going to be like thinking of that friend and being like, yep, he was right. I didn't like that scene. I just, I realized I do this recently where, or recently I've been doing this,
Starting point is 00:06:21 where I was just telling John Haskell about some show today. I forget what it was, but I said something like to the effect of like this doesn't ruin it um but i'll just say it anyway and i said it and i was like jeez i wouldn't like people do that to me yeah and i i realized like in myself i was like the reason i just did that and the reason people do is like i was making a good point and people just want to like have their movie opinions and points your take you want to get your take i let if i'm in a group conversation like at work or something and everyone has seen a thing i'll i'll be like okay you can spoil it i'm fine because like i feel
Starting point is 00:06:58 like no i shut that i shut that shit down we are not talking about a movie I haven't seen. You can't talk about that. With TV shows, like, look, nothing's good, right? You watch stuff, it's not good. You want to talk about it, but it's not actually good. I'm starting to hear that Poor Things is pretty good. That's true. Poor Things is good, and I won't spoil anything.
Starting point is 00:07:25 But TV show, if you watch the sunday night water cooler show on hbo yeah yeah the reason you watch it is the chit chat to talk about it on monday morning it like it's not like it's art or it's going to affect your life or you know so when i'm working at a job and and it does bother me if a co-worker is like monday morning like oh i haven't watched yet because i'm like this is why i watch like like last of us isn't right right right important in my life do you know what i mean like succession don't say that around jeff dunn he'll blast you yeah i'll blast you too succession is not important in my life you watch those so that on monday morning you could say yeah you and you can't be the one person preventing a room from freely discussing.
Starting point is 00:08:05 Yeah, exactly. Maybe I'll make a movie called room and it's about, it's about a room. You do have a good name for the sequel. If you ever want to do room to room to the veranda years. Oh, that could be like the,
Starting point is 00:08:18 uh, the young rock series. Uh, I, I, uh, yeah, I'm going to see salt burn because now that you said that tim i have heard a few things and i think there is the big one thing that you're talking about that is going to get spoiled for well people have dm'd me because there's like a cocktail inspired and by that and stuff like that so i've've been, Oh, fuck. Careful, careful with your clicks, Tim. Yes.
Starting point is 00:08:46 I gotta be careful, careful clicking. Sometimes if I'm, no, I'm going to a movie like next weekend, I won't touch my phone or my computer all week. You don't know. You don't know how many jobs I've been fired from because of this.
Starting point is 00:08:59 So like Mike, we've been trying to call you. I can't touch my phone. To what? Don't say fire me. I'm hoping to see salt burn in a couple of months. No, I'm seeing Deadpool 3 in a couple of months. I'm not touching my phone.
Starting point is 00:09:13 Holy shit. Wait. I forgot. What? You have Deadpool 3 news? You got Deadpool news? I have Deadpool news. Tim has Deadpool news?
Starting point is 00:09:25 You're supposed to get on that. I can't believe what I'm seeing. Tim's slowly turning into a Marvel DC freak. I do love geek shit, I guess. Let's see. I'm bringing I'm sure I screenshotted this and this was sent to me by a slophead who I
Starting point is 00:09:39 intend to give credit to. This better not be the booze news that I had about Deadpool 3 a couple weeks ago. No, no, no. What was yours? Just that they're making it? That it's coming? No, it's that Swift is going to be Dazzler.
Starting point is 00:09:54 Oh, shit. That's right. Swift is Dazzler. Wow, Swift is Dazzler. Yeah, I heard Owen Wilson cast that movie and he said, Yeah, why don't we have Taylor Swift be Dazzler? I think she's got the moves. All right.
Starting point is 00:10:10 Okay, Michael. Tim, go ahead, buddy. Hold on to your butts, Mike, because Chelmabel on Instagram DM'd us to say, heads up for Mike, Deadpool 3 with Wolverine. And I click and the release date is july 26th mike it's coming at you yeah i'm putting that down in the phone right now i can't wait to see that thing i'm seeing a picture i'm seeing a production still of deadpool standing next to wolverine
Starting point is 00:10:41 yeah no shit i've seen that and it's it's july 26th is the release they got cigars out no they're walking no they're walking though does that do anything for you probably to get their cigars yeah i don't know where to get the cigars chelma bell that's old news we knew the release date we know wolverine's in it i didn't think i knew that release i don't think we did know the release date because this is like an la times story so i don't think that they would. Huh? Jeff, the thing that you were dropping the ball on, I think, was the release date. No?
Starting point is 00:11:10 I swore I looked it up. Maybe it just got moved. He was dropping the ball on every piece of news. I have to ask him about the news. He should just be telling me. Should be going and fetching news. For me. Fresh nuggets of news.
Starting point is 00:11:26 While I'm not using my computer or phone. All right. Can we get into some booze news, please? Speakinging news. Fresh nuggets of news. While I'm not using my computer or phone. All right, can we get into some booze news, please? Speaking of booze. But you got to be honest with me. That's going to be an ass-kicking movie. Yeah, I'll be honest with you. Be honest with me. That movie's going to kick ass. I'm not going to see it.
Starting point is 00:11:40 I hate Ryan Reynolds. Ryan Reynolds is objectively bad. Oh, you're not going to see it. Of course you're seeing it.yan reynolds is objectively bad oh you're not gonna see it of course you're seeing it we're going to we're doing it for a blowout fuck my life i love the era of comedy that we grew up with where the they're scored with like these big scores you know like they're like dumb bro stoner comedies but it's like wow Some bro stoner comedies with his... Yeah. Wow. Yes. A shithead wants to fart.
Starting point is 00:12:38 It's Blue's nose, you bastard! I am Corona, and I'm crazy. I'm just living my life. I'm making my best friends. I'm having the greatest party. I'm not the best, but I'm living my life. I've made five friends in my life. Bye.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Bye. I'm leaving now. Bye. Jesus Christ. Oh, my God. Jesus Christ. Oh my God. A shithead wants to fart was sent to us by the human neighbor featuring Sedona.
Starting point is 00:13:32 And if you have a booze news theme, email it to the sloppy boys podcast at gmail.com. And here's the weird thing that the human neighbor is not yet a subscriber of our Patreon, which is stupid because that means he doesn't listen to this. The sloppy boys blow out. Oh, he's't listen to the Sloppy Boys blowout. Oh, he's only getting half the content? Yeah. Oh. The bad half? Subscribe. Everyone, if you like
Starting point is 00:13:52 this show, listen. If you like this show, pay $5 a month and get our better show. I don't understand you people. Yes, this is a bad show. The better half is behind the paywall, which soon we're putting the whole thing behind paywall is what I'm thinking.
Starting point is 00:14:06 You know, like at an office party, like all the office people get together and then they're like, hey, and my better half? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what we do with the blowout. The blowout's like our lovely wife. This right here, this is the wedding reception. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:20 Okay, and the blowout, that's the after party. So, no, this is the ceremony, and that's the reception. This is the ceremony. Yeah. This is like the churchy, uncomfortable clothes. This is a cocktail hour, I guess. Yeah, yeah. That was really funny.
Starting point is 00:14:37 It was the rapper at the end saying... That was Sedona. That was Sedona. Did she say she's only made five grand in her whole little life or something like that she said she only made five friends at school oh I don't know she's been featured before on other human neighbor raps she's she's his daughter and normally we don't let Sedona like spit a whole verse during a booze news theme but that was a pretty good theme so I'll allow it it. She had bars. So that was good.
Starting point is 00:15:06 If you got bars, you're good. You're allowed to overstay your welcome. If you're welcome is such a warm one for such a, an inspired booze news theme. Yes. Plus that, that music was good with,
Starting point is 00:15:17 he, he really took what we were saying, singing. Um, good. You ready for the booze news? Yes, please. Yeah. This I believe was booze news that got
Starting point is 00:15:27 punted from last week because i think oh we had you've news last week you've news was last week yeah my big well update there my huge uvula has shrunk back down to normal size but i'm doing a follow-up with a surgeon to get see if i can get it snipped anyway but it's still at large uh haunting the back of your mouth i gotta keep an eye on it a lot of a lot of slapheads continue to open up to me about their uvula issues and i i feel like i i didn't set out to be a an activist but i kind of you're an active uvula guy well you're gonna get that surgery you're going back for a consultation i'm gonna i i got it shrunk and i'm breathing fine right now but i'm i'm i'm gonna go on my health portal and make it make it a tim you got
Starting point is 00:16:10 to get one of those live strong bands but yeah pick a color for uvula awareness pink i guess pig's taking it i'll put it on hanging on my uvula in the back of my throat yeah pig stag it uh mauve uvula pink we do have big booze news to get to which is this month january often many certain people do dry january do they not they do i'm not riding a fucking tidal wave in this january this is this is wet as fuck well this this year the kind of big thing is damp january a lot of people saying don't over promise but just scale it back yeah yeah you know those people are doing not dry january we got them got them we've got big plans for a dry january drink we want to do the slop beds have been waiting for it and we have it hasn't come together it might not even happen till february but yeah damp february it'll be more of a uh sober valentine's day drink right perfect which is good
Starting point is 00:17:13 but in the meantime here was the biggest hugest dry january news that i've been trying to get to um this came to me from a lot of slop heads and this is, was making actual big splash news. I just sent you guys a link. Um, uh, white claw zero. We are talking about non alcoholic white claw. Have you guys heard about this? No. So white claw came out with a zero alcohol drink.
Starting point is 00:17:46 And that is inherently odd and novel. People are like, okay, so there was seltzer and there was flavored seltzer. First there was seltzer. Then we had a hard seltzer. After the LaCroix boom of the 2010ss when we got to like 2018 2019 then there was the summer of of white claw uh ain't no law when you're drinking the claw and um it's it was taking seltzer and making it a beer level amount of alcohol versus your crushable seltzer well now white claw zero has no alcohol and then everyone's pointing out
Starting point is 00:18:26 like hey that's isn't that kind of funny they're just reverting back to the original thing but here's what's really weird white claw is insistent that this is not just like that it's not just like a normal seltzer but this has the white claw taste what okay weird tastes like white claw it's got like high super hydrating elements to it but you're not just going to taste this and just think you're drinking lacroix it's supposed to taste like alcoholic like like it's got fake alcohol in it it's got decoy alcohol in it wow and here's the weird thing i then read a bunch of reviews and people are saying correct they did it and when you drink this you do you wouldn't know you're mike they did and then i mean here's of course then the stupidest fucking thing on earth is
Starting point is 00:19:16 the prices it is like 18.99 for a 12 pack so you are paying what the fuck just put it next to the lacroix's but this is why i think that's why they said it has like extra hydrating electrolyte elements to it. So that will people treat it like it's something special, but you know, that's really funny. This seltzer should be like $3 for a 12 pack. Yes.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Yeah. They're going to do this for less than six months. I bet you it's, it's so funny. Cause like, I always thought of white claws. I don't really, you guys like them,
Starting point is 00:19:49 right? Still. Yeah. In this content, I had a pool party on a hot day. I'll crush a hundred white claws. Yeah. What's the,
Starting point is 00:19:55 yeah. What's not to like, you know, it's not incredible. It's one of those things I kind of avoid, but if they're the last ones I'll do them. But it, to me,
Starting point is 00:20:02 like getting that white cloth flavor back isn't like a plus you know what i mean like that's not oh you love the flavor of those things it's like the lesser of evils if you don't want beers or hard everybody overlooks the uh seltzer flavor of all these seltzers none of them taste particularly good you want them as cold as you can get them for that reason um bizarre i think they give this one summer it's they're gonna try it this summer it's not gonna take off and we're never gonna see these again yeah if we start seeing like ads and stuff for this that would be weird that they're pushing it hard you know what'd be funny has uh i feel like uh uh the the opposite of this would be like
Starting point is 00:20:40 if if liquid death came out with a hard liquid death because the whole point of liquid death yeah right right it's just water yeah it's just it's a can of water but they specifically like for sober people if you're out at a bar and you don't want to be holding a water bottle and look lame here is a like a tall boy can that looks like a heavy metal aesthetic but it's but it's for sober people if they came out with that then we're truly living in the upside down okay okay no i'm just saying i'm just saying it's like then finally it's like hey winona yeah we're listening finally yeah yeah yeah because we're finally you can finally tell us about the upside down winona in the summer of white claw in in 2019 we were on an east coast tour and i had been hearing so much about white claw and when we were at an airbnb in brooklyn we were playing the bell house
Starting point is 00:21:35 i went out to a bodega specifically trying to buy white claw for us to have in our little airbnb oh yeah and i found it and I was like, what flavor should I get? And I've eventually settled in to be a black cherry guy, but I have not even seen this since I bought like plain pure. Yeah. Yeah. Hell yeah. And it was just like a blue logo.
Starting point is 00:21:57 And that is a weird thing because that then you're just tasting like malt. I don't think they do that anymore. No, they phased it up just like plain seltzer water with alcohol wow but that's the problem i whenever i have something for the first time you know like i always if i'm at a restaurant for the first time i'm trying to just order like what's like the house dish or the titular thing or like i always enter like i'll i'll ask like what's what should a first timer have here whatever so i think with the white clouds like
Starting point is 00:22:23 i guess original is is the thing like i don't want to be too thrown by who cherry mango well because we had that problem jeff when we smoked hookah at uh desert rose i was i was saying to them it's my first hookah experience what should i have and they were like uh minty melon madness oh yeah i was minty melon madness. Minty melon. What? There's no original, you know, it would be,
Starting point is 00:22:49 you know, I'm not like a, uh, I don't follow the trends, you know, so to speak. No, I don't. I barely know who Troy Savan is.
Starting point is 00:23:01 He's a popular singer. Anyway, anyway, uh, maybe this sometime we should just do all the trends like if if a everyone's drinking white claw it's like let's get into white claw or if everyone's you know the big thing is wearing uh flip-flops instead of crocs this next summer let's just do the trend and see what happens might we kind of do that we keep people up on the trends on the show i think we you want to lean in predict the trends oh okay okay no i'm saying more of my everyday life it's like oh everyone's drinking whatever uh like i still haven't had really a uh a uh espresso martini i've had sips of them you had it on the show
Starting point is 00:23:41 we covered on your you covered it on your cocktail show. Yeah, but the thing I made was not. Oh, right. I can't remember what it was. It was terrible. That trend, people have shit on that and been like, oh, that's over. But man, I got to say, I had a wonderful night recently where I was like feeling a little tired. I had to rally a little bit. I was going to a movie and I had two espresso martinis and I was
Starting point is 00:24:05 flying high. I felt fantastic. Yeah, it's great. This movie's great! Hey, everybody's coming home with me! I can believe these characters. This movie's fucking awesome! Play it again! You should read my Letterboxd review. This movie
Starting point is 00:24:21 rules, man! Even Letterboxd, that's one trend I don't know about. I know there's a thing called Letterboxd,. This movie, Roman. Even Letterboxd, that's one trend I don't know about. I know there's a thing called Letterboxd, but I don't really know what it is.
Starting point is 00:24:30 Get on there. Get on there, man. Yeah. You need another reason to look at your phone? No. I'm not on Letterboxd. No, I'm not on it.
Starting point is 00:24:38 No, I got all these Troye Sivan apps open. Troye Tracker. I want to be on Letterboxd because i tried one year to watch 100 movies in a year and i just wrote them in a notes app oh yeah so i think it'd be good to just kind of like track what i saw and what i liked but i don't need another like social media thing you know right that's what it is to like connect you with people right who like the same movies it seems like what it is interesting well is that it for boo Well, is that it for booze news?
Starting point is 00:25:06 That's it for booze news. Damn. Okay. Well, hey, wow. This is exciting. Usually one of us says, oh, what's the drink of the day? And then we go through our tabs on our computer that we can barely get open. And you don't remember where you saw some line you wanted to mention or the person's name we don't have to deal with that today because
Starting point is 00:25:30 today is a drink invented by me you know it by heart i know it by heart i think i wrote down the ingredients here so what we're drinking today yeah is something I'm called and I'm, I'm, I'm ready to get off this name, but it's what it is for now. It's a Tahini. Yes. You've heard. Yeah. I heard about it on the text chain. I had not heard until you texted me. You've had, um, wait, what'd you say jeff i heard about on the text chain okay i thought you said i heard about when somebody made it for me i was like whoa this exists it very well could so basically what we're doing here it's an idea i came up with i was out at a nice bar i forget the name it was in a hotel near uh central park on uh oh theaza, but it wasn't the plaza.
Starting point is 00:26:26 Classy. It was very classy, what I was getting up to that day. So setting the tone here, yeah. And I got a martini. I said, you know what? He had some tajin around. The tajin, the- He had it around the room or he just had it around?
Starting point is 00:26:41 He had it just around. I said, you know what? Dump some of that in there. In? In it. This is Test Kitchen, Jeff. We don't know what's going on. Oh, so you...
Starting point is 00:26:50 I said, dump it in there, good sir. And he said, okay. He said, it'll ruin the drink. He was like, you sure? I was like, I'm just trying. I want something a little spicy, but I like martinis. So he did it. And I said, oh, this isn't so bad, Mike.
Starting point is 00:27:04 So what I basically did is made a dirty martinis. So he did it and I said, oh, this isn't so bad, Mike. So what I basically did is made a dirty martini with a tahini rim. You see? Yeah, I see. Beautiful. Good. And I'll give you the,
Starting point is 00:27:14 I'll give you the, the ingredients here. Here we go. Two and a half ounces beef eater gin. I'm very strict on that. If you don't have beef eater, another, your favorite gin will do. Mike, I do have beef eater gin. I'm very strict on that. If you don't have beef eater, another, your favorite gin will do. Mike, I do have beef eater, but we're, me and Jeff are learning these
Starting point is 00:27:31 measurements. You texted us an ingredient list, but I haven't heard these measurements. So you got to text me this. Yes, I will text you this as well. Right. I didn't have the numbers figured out, but it's two and a half beef eater gin, half ounce dry vermouth. We'll get back to that. Half ounce olive brine. Garnish. You're going to need an olive for a garnish and lime. So here's what's happening. We're taking, you take your martini glass.
Starting point is 00:27:57 You take the, what did I say? Half ounce of dry vermouth. You put it in the martini glass and you tilt the glass and you just. Rinse. Yeah. You just rinse it. Coat it. It's a vermouth, you put it in the martini glass, and you tilt the glass, and you just... Rinse? Yeah. You just rinse it. Coat it. It's a vermouth rinse.
Starting point is 00:28:09 You coat it, gone. That stuff is so gone. You discard it. Oh, yeah. Wherever you want to put it. You can even drink it if you want. Some people do that with the tahini. So then you take that and rim your glass in tahini.
Starting point is 00:28:24 With the lime, or you just get it on there? Oh, I see what you're saying too. Yes, use the lime wedge there. Yeah, yeah, you do. Yeah, you use the lime. Yes, as is tradition, yes. This is the tradition of this drink. Then you just make, put the other ingredients in a shaker and make a martini, put it in the glass.
Starting point is 00:28:47 And then the last thing is you take a half of a lime and squeeze it all in. It's not, we're not shaking that up. Okay. You're not shaking up the lime? We're not shaking it up, but put it in the drink in a circular motion so it gets all in the drink. Okay, drops on top. Put it in the drink in a circular motion so it gets all in the drink. Okay, drops on top.
Starting point is 00:29:08 I'm still back and forth on if you should mix the lime in with it, but I'm doing it this way for this first round just to see how it goes. Which is you – wait, you said you are putting the lime in with it. No, no, he's not. Lime in with it – sorry, lime in after the shaking. See, what is tradition is if there's citrus in a drink, it gets shaken. I know. That's normal, but this is not normal today. This doesn't seem normal.
Starting point is 00:29:31 And maybe I'm trying to do too many weird things, so maybe it is just going to go into the... Hey, but you know what? This is reminding me a little bit of Oppenheimer's martini, and you are kind of a... You and Oppenheimer have similar minds. Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah not in the not in the world of physics for me but yeah i'm always thinking about things blowing up though
Starting point is 00:29:50 so this is this drink this very interesting uh uh gin martini that's gonna have that's gonna have lime in it but we're also putting we're also putting olive juice yeah two different greens i know and very very different flavors. I know. I think it's going to be interesting. But it's not a super dirty martini. It's just a half of olive juice. I think you're going to enjoy it.
Starting point is 00:30:14 And then garnish with just one olive. You know, you see these people with, we put five olives on a stick and put them across your drink. That looks trashy as hell. Give me one. Put it in there. Wow. Dick.
Starting point is 00:30:29 Hayford. Yeah, I know. I can't handle all these olives people are throwing at me. That looks trashy as hell. I didn't know. Snobs versus slobs. I didn't take you for a snob. I'm a snob.
Starting point is 00:30:41 You should see when I do a martini order. It's annoying. I'm like, beef eater martini, martini,ini vermouth rinse uh dirty and one olive please uh mike i've seen they don't usually don't hear a part of it i have to be like oh you don't typically get a guy who's very very picky in particular but then but then at the same time not really known for his palate or being able to distinguish different tastes so that's what they all say not really known not really known for that that'd be so funny if i we came back to this drink and mine was a different color
Starting point is 00:31:17 why mike's is beet red. Oh, and served up in a martini glass. Oh, yes, of course. A triangular shape. Yeah, triangular shape. If you don't have it. Mike, I'm excited. I love Tahin. Jeff is a lime freak.
Starting point is 00:31:36 This is interesting. We all like martinis. Yeah, this is interesting. The swing thing, I think, is going to be the lime itself. Where does it go? Do we need it? Yeah. Yeah. You know what I mean? That's going to be the lime itself Where does it go? Do we need it? Yeah That's going to be the swing But I'm happy it's there Mike because
Starting point is 00:31:51 The tahini Only being rimmed with tahini I'm happy to see There's some other element going on So it's not just the martini Yeah I needed that Andy I know not a lot of people know this There's lime flavor in Tahin as well.
Starting point is 00:32:06 There you go. There you go. Yep, this is Tahin with lime, it says. Oh, damn. I think rims are, for 2024, I think rims are in. We just did the Caesar. We love the celery salt. Jeff, you're putting some Lowry salt.
Starting point is 00:32:17 I think rims are in. I'm still developing my Zapp's Voodoo rim. Pimp my ride, baby. Rims are in. All right, you want to get into the laboratory oh yeah all right folks we're gonna go make these drinks you listen to the ads we'll be right back as women our life stages come with unique risk factors like high blood pressure developed during pregnancy which can put us two times more at risk of heart disease or stroke.
Starting point is 00:32:49 Know your risks. Visit heartandstroke.ca. And we're back with a tahini teeny let's see him tahini teeny yeah we got to talk about that tahini is tricky oh hey they all look the same hey they're pretty those are pretty uniform beautiful very nicely done oh i forgot to plop my olive but i did put the olive juice okay do you want time to plop? No, no, no. But I was just pointing out what an unfortunate we can't say tahini because there's already a sesame sauce. And I don't love tahini or tahini or something. It's like too many.
Starting point is 00:33:39 What about tahini teeny? Too cute? Tahini is the thing, though. Well, because it's not tahini. Oh, you're right. It's tahini teeny. Tahini teeny too cute tahini is the thing though well because it's not tahini oh you're right it's tahini teeny tahini teeny teeny let's have our baby yeah let's have a sip and we'll think of it yeah the first time a lime has met an olive yes okay not too bad now mike i really haven't had a dirty martini in a long time i like all of the martini but my salt sensitivity and high blood pressure makes me not put a half
Starting point is 00:34:13 ounce of uh brine in there but i gotta say this is zipped up having that in there and then also having the teen i think here's what I think I think that lime's probably not necessary at all in the drink itself I gotta say it's getting lost but in a way that is interesting I like it because it's doing something it's not just a martini with an interesting rim
Starting point is 00:34:37 it's doing something it gives it a little goose it does give it a little something what's good for the goose is good for the gander I'm just tasting the tajin so much on this one. Oh, that's a refreshing one. Not me, baby. All gin.
Starting point is 00:34:53 This is a good gin martini just with a little something. A little something extra. Beefeater is delicious. I mean, this is going to blow people's hair back. It's a lot to have gin. I mean, you typically, dirty martinis are more often made with vodka than gin. So to be using gin and to have the vermouth and to have the olive brine and to have the lime and have a teeny,
Starting point is 00:35:15 this is pretty much as, as gussied up as a drink you would ever have in your whole life. It's as bold as you could go. It's like an X games branded drink. You know, it's in your face. Yeah. Right bold as you could go it's like an x games branded drink you know it's in your face yeah right yeah just like its creator it's as bold as you can go as you it was it's as bold as you are are you bold because we're that bold too the drink is anyway tahini it's as bold as you are that's the tagline is that right rambling are you as bold because the drink we're as bold as you are. The drink is, anyway.
Starting point is 00:35:45 Not us personally, but the drink we make. We're stuffy guys in an office, but you know. We know what you like. Not me, the voiceover guy for this commercial. Yeah. Sure, I do the do every so often. Oh, careful, because Tim sent us a do-inspired
Starting point is 00:36:02 drink. Oh, yeah. A gamer drink. Oh, shit. Yeah gamer drink. Oh, shit. Yeah. What was that called? It was called Gamer Juice. Gamer Juice. But it was like heavy. It was like...
Starting point is 00:36:13 It was like a Long Island. Tequila, vodka, and rum. A Long Island. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was very much a Long Island, like a Mountain Dew Long Island, because Mountain Dew has done a good job of branding themselves for gamers. And, uh,
Starting point is 00:36:26 Oh, we love Mountain Dew, Tim. Yeah, we do. We, we live off that stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:31 We love that stuff. Mountain Dew guys like us. This is you guys being Fortnite buddies reminds me of when you guys were, uh, became skateboard buddies briefly. Mm. Hmm. That didn't last too long.
Starting point is 00:36:41 We weren't very good at that. This one's built for the test of time though, Tim. Yeah. Cause we're good at it. You come and built for the test of time, though, Tim. Yeah, because we're good at it. You come around our squad, our duo, man. You won't last long. You come around our squad, man.
Starting point is 00:36:53 You won't last very long. I won't. I won't come around it. That's not an issue. I'm not for you, Tim, but other people who have PS4s and 5s. Some of these other gamers. Yeah, don't step to us. Do not step to me.
Starting point is 00:37:09 Do not step to Jeff. Here's how I would suggest drinking this. Get a little of that rim on your tongue. That's good. Take a sip. The instructions did at one point also say serve immediately. I like that. Yeah, serve immediately because you want it cold, ice cold. This, I know, I should have read the instructions the way I point also say serve immediately i like that yeah serve immediately
Starting point is 00:37:25 because you want a cold ice cold this i know i should have read the instructions the way i wrote wrote them to you mike why don't you in the drink and shake because as of now i'm just sort of having a weird martini but if you put the tahini in the drink that's an option i mean that make it make it your own to a degree but what i was going to say is take a sip he's not going to turn down a good idea tim he's not in that position take a sip with the tahini and then you can take some sips without the tahini rim and you still have it on your tongue you want to sip selectively yeah you just want a little taste of it it's it's it's funny i can't decide about the the flavor combination with the gin because
Starting point is 00:38:00 had you if you use tequila we would all be like well hey that's really not a martini but as we all know the green mango martini and stuff like that is going on and people are using whatever they want a martini so they're saying martini but it's just interesting it's just interesting there's a culture clash happening in my mouth because when i taste all of brine and gin i'm getting one flavor and then when i brine and gin, I'm getting one flavor. And then when I get lime and tahini, I'm getting another flavor. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:38:30 it's like, as if my British cocktail friend is, is in Mexico having a michelada, you know? Interesting. So you'd say maybe you're seeing things from a different perspective. I would say, but here's what I would say.
Starting point is 00:38:43 This is a before and after moment in my life. It's sort of a game changed. Mike dropped. Yeah. Okay. But you said you're, you're, you're British friend and you're, and you're Mexican friends. So they are friends. They're friends. Are they getting along taste bud wise? They're just friends with you. I don't, I don't think they're getting along. I think they're clashing because we're like, we're like, they're friends with you, but they're not friends with each other. One of those awkward moments. This is one of these drinks where
Starting point is 00:39:09 if I took out ingredients, it might improve. And for me, if the tajin is the star of the show, I think I would lose the olive juice as much as I love olive juice. What the fuck? I think I would make room for- Because a lot of the tajin from my rim fell into the drink and is flavoring
Starting point is 00:39:25 the drink and I'm losing that flavor to all of. So Tim, the briny olive juice brings a lot of that salt. Does it not? It does. I have to give you that. But then, so you're saying,
Starting point is 00:39:37 Hey, we got all this Tahini. Why not put it in the drink? That's your salty briny thing. Yes. And what I'm wondering is the creator of this drink, Jeff is known around his doctor's office as the blood pressure guy
Starting point is 00:39:48 and why is he drinking this much salt? Didn't I tell you I was bad to the bone? Well, I told my doctor that. He said, you're going to be nothing but bones if you don't listen to me. I said, yeah, and I'll come out of my crypt and haunt the hell
Starting point is 00:40:03 out of you. You call me just bones? I'll haunt you. He's like, no, you will be bones if you don't follow my rules. I don't do rules, asshole. I don't do rules, doc. The haunting is the ghost. It's the spirit with unfinished business. It's not the bones themselves that have been buried in a coffin.
Starting point is 00:40:20 Yeah, but see, Mike does things a little differently. That's what I'm saying. I'll do it a little differently. That's true. i've noticed that based on his cocktail here yeah i was just thinking now mike you are right on trend with i mean there have been articles and articles about the martini the last couple years all these different savior martinis with msg in them with all kinds of stuff and here's here's what i'm thinking we just had a caesar and i
Starting point is 00:40:46 flipped my shit for the celery salt rim because i love oh celery salt yeah how about martini gin and celery go together very well i can oh yeah that's hey friends from the garden yes yes right juniper meets celery stock. Yes. You know what I did the other day? Because we had that celery for the Caesar. Here's me wanting to make a tuna fish sandwich. All I want in the world is to make a tuna fish sandwich for lunch. I start chopping up the tuna, adding the horseradish.
Starting point is 00:41:21 Yes. Remember? Which we have. Very nice. And I said, I'm really gussying this thing up. I'm going to chop up some celery. Whatever, do a little celery in there. And then I notice, no bread.
Starting point is 00:41:32 No bread. None in the cupboard. Oh. And then so I said, how do I eat this bowl of tuna? This bowl of tuna salad I've lovingly prepared. So what I do is I grab that celery stalk, just make a bunch of big celery sticks, and I'm just eating it like dip, man.
Starting point is 00:41:50 Hey! I go in there, I scoop it up into that celery, and chow, chow, chow. So celery is scooping celery? Celery is, well, there's just a little bit in the tuna salad. I know, I know, but still. You know, and then I'm thinking like, this is like, I feel like I'm a keto guy oh jeff you'd love the keto lifestyle you would love no
Starting point is 00:42:11 no no no i'm a tourist no no and you could and you could have as many tahini teenies as you want because they are not they are keto they're in the keto world. Because they're not. Because they're keto. Not whatever keto is not. Mike, have you dipped back into ketosis recently? No. No, I'm trying to eat less carbs, but I haven't been doing ketosis just yet. It's kind of actually
Starting point is 00:42:42 confusing for me because my college roommate was Cliff Sosisosis so when you say ketosis i'm like yeah no i'm not i'm not doing ketosis i'm doing cliff sosis i'm growing my hair out philosophy major um yeah i'm growing my hair out into curly hair have you guys seen the recent ad campaign for taheen no no i didn't know they advertised him they came out with commercials that are exactly our old birthday boys ad campaign for jose cuervo yes i have seen oh call your shot which which type are you the transporter the town crier there's a there's a tahine commercial that's like, uh, like the, the, the, the innovator,
Starting point is 00:43:25 the distributor, the, this and that. Wait a minute. Is it all bar based or cause like Tahin's for like food. It's in a backyard at like a backyard cookout. And there's like the, like the,
Starting point is 00:43:40 the guy who tells you about Tahin, the guy who does a little Taheen sneak attack, the guy. There must be, that must be like, if you're an advertising company, you go to another business and it's like, hey, we can sell your stuff. That must be like a early go-to thing. It's like, yeah, we got this thing where, you know, you want to have your clients feel like they're part of a community. So you're figuring out who you are within this world it seems so basic i feel like that's the only move any brand has is just how do we get the brand and you in one sentence or in one like sound right because there's the how do you freshy or there's the which type are you yeah yeah but i bet a lot of these ad agencies uh they get a new account a new product comes in they're going to
Starting point is 00:44:30 give them five pitches i bet that those two are in the top everything every single time every time and then when when a brand falls for it they're like these fucking dumb ass brands fell for it but like it's every especially tahine like a time-honored company that is only advertising for the first time and they fall for it and the ad agency is laughing all the way to the bank because they only had to come up with like you know concepts four and five or the swing concepts but they probably always are doing these i love seeing an ad from a company that doesn't usually do ads because the actors in it are you know people you they're not celebrities and their clothes look like set
Starting point is 00:45:10 clothes and the set is like a backyard it's too bright or just doesn't look like you tell it's somebody else's backyard it's not a set you know what i'm sick of though is like user generated ads on youtube i mean yeah what does that mean? I'm sure I'm sorry. No, sorry. Not, not YouTube. Like, like Instagram, like anytime you boot up Instagram and they're like, okay, folks, if you want to have a projector in your house, you got to go with this one. Oh, I don't know. I haven't come across it. Or really, I feel like everything I, every ad I ever see on Instagram is just like these DIY sort of user generated commercials.
Starting point is 00:45:47 I am getting nothing but, uh, calendar ads on my Instagram. Those calendars where you like rip off a page and each day, like, uh, like each page you rip, rip off,
Starting point is 00:45:58 it starts to look like a castle or something like an advent calendar. Yeah. They're ads for advent calendars for chocolates you get them year year round no no no no it's a yearly calendar no i know it but i am i'm stuck in some algorithm for those all right well uh jeff usually asks us but what would you do different i'll take this mike thank you thank you i mean you know thanks you so much for bringing in the drink but um i'm gonna you'll take it i don't know where. Thank you. I mean, you know, thanks so much for bringing in the drink, but I'm going to... You'll take it from here.
Starting point is 00:46:26 I don't know. I'm over my head here. Tim, we already heard that you would like to get rid of the brine. Baller move. Old. But I'm going to go one step further and I'm just going to shake up...
Starting point is 00:46:37 I'm going to shake up gin and tajin and see what Mike first... What first inspired. Just gin and tajin? Yeah. I want to taste what you tasted at that bar when you first did this i'm gonna do tahini and lime or should i or should i innovate and do gin and celery salt like i was just no that'll be for my own test kitchen i'm gonna do make it the same way
Starting point is 00:46:58 with the same uh configurations but i'm gonna put it all in the shaker maybe i'll just do a couple dashes of team because i don't need this much on the like the rim amount i don't need imagery you just as you said that your tongue did a good swipe across the rim i know i'm going lime juice and tahini in the shaker no olive juice no olive wow okay is that allowed mike it's a lot of frying for me all right folks we're gonna make round two and we'll be right back after this And we're back with round two of the Tahine Teenie. Yeah. Tahina Teenie.
Starting point is 00:47:49 Tahine Teenie. Yeah. Tahina Turner. I ran out of gin. Happens to the best of us. So I had to scale down. See, so I don't have much of a yield. Oh, it's so cloudy, Jeff.
Starting point is 00:47:59 Yeah. I can't even see through it. Mine turned it. Mine's a mess. Looks a lot like my man Mike's. Okay. Yeah. It's lime, tahine, gin. I'm just gin and tahine. Here we go. see through it mine turned it mine's a mess looks a lot like my man mike's okay yeah it's lime tahin gin i'm just gin and tahini here we go oh what was yours again jeff lime tahin and gin
Starting point is 00:48:14 i mean it's it's fine it's just nothing like the drink we just had it's it's all the olive then and vermouth probably too there's no no olive uh or brine or vermouth in this which you know i i feel like this flies in the face of what we're trying to do here tonight do you like that though it's fine tim do you like yours yeah this is just um gin and tahini a bunch of teens shaking up really good and yeah it just adds a little twang to it. I mean, in this modern era of martinis being anything I want, I am wondering about a fancy tequila with Tahin shaken up and served in a tequila glass. But in the meantime, this works for me, man, because I've liked, Mike, I liked your drink.
Starting point is 00:49:04 I've liked all this. There was just a little bit of competition between the olive and the tajin as well. Thank you. I think this one, by putting it all in the shaker, is also not right. Like, this is too much of, too much stuff going on. Drinks with citrus, you tend to shake them, but also there tends to be a simple syrup or something, or an orgeat, or a sec to balance it out that sour. But you don't want that.
Starting point is 00:49:28 Martini can't be sweet. A martini has to be dry and astringent. Yeah. And what I'm seeing with this one, too, like this is putting the tahini in the drink is like just way too much tahini flavor. Not necessarily. You can't get away from it. You got to balance it out, baby. Well, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:50 You can't get away from it, but you like it. I know, but what I was saying before is like you get a nice taste on your tongue, and then it's not every single drink you go to the rim. Yeah. For my preference. It's funny to me, Tim, that you thought the olive was fighting the tahini and not the lime. Well, lime was certainly a curveball as well. There's a lot going on there. Well, lime was a curveball as well.
Starting point is 00:50:14 Lime and olive was rather odd. I was just thinking about how strange it is that I've always had tahini in my home and I have never once bought tahini. I just assumed tonight I was like, yeah, I got to heen and I had one of those teeny little shakers. Oh, not a pack. I mean, I always have the packets. And then this was just like a shrunk down shaker. And I always have a few of those and I don't even know what those come with. And the packets I've known, like maybe they come with fruit from.
Starting point is 00:50:42 Yeah. They just come your way. Hey, you live in that party lifestyle. You you're gonna have some tits coming in and out of your life it's fine i'm gonna have some to eat around you know what i have is tahini hot sauce which is kind of a was a recent product that's very good it's uh you know it's a darker wait what i guess i would compare it to like chamoy it's it's a good sauce tah Tahin brand? Tahin brand hot sauce. It's made for like fruit cups and stuff. It's really good. You know what I bought the other day? Oh, I see.
Starting point is 00:51:11 That's good. Some Zab's hot honey you've had. Zab's? I love Zab's, but I've never had their hot honey. What's Zab's? It's a brand of hot sauce. I bought it at Oak's Gourmet. You know Oak's Gourmet.
Starting point is 00:51:23 Of course. Yeah. We used to buy our beers there before ucb shows um i got this thing a hot honey because i said oh i love when that ends up on a pepperoni pizza you know um but now tim i don't know what to put it on i put it on some eggs and i said well this is weird i think hot honey is really good for... Wait, what did you say you were going to put on? Eggs. Oh.
Starting point is 00:51:50 Eggs. I think hot honey is best on pizza, fried chicken. Oh. I put it on bready things, but guys, I just had a massive brainstorm. I had a massive brain fart. All this Tahin talk.
Starting point is 00:52:06 What is Tahin's Chesapeake Bay cousin, but Old Bay. Yes. Old Bay rimmed martini. I was talking about the celery salt. I think Old Bay has celery salt in it. Old Bay martini. Oh, that's nice. And that brings back some of that crab
Starting point is 00:52:26 you want. Yes. Crab. That dried crab. Pinch, pinch. Some of that. The pinchy inch crab. Crab. Yeah, yeah,
Starting point is 00:52:40 yeah. You little red hard shell. So, but Tim, you're saying put it in or put it around? Rim. Rim. Rim or in? Rim or in? No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:52:57 I mean, rimming a martini with it, but I would also say like, just shake up some gin and... Gin feels like it would go good with old Bay. Tim, you just, I think you're right. It's just like Jack shrimp says about the citrus oil. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:12 You're putting it in the drink. You put it around the glass. It gets on your hands. It gets on the tray. It gets all over. It slips up my ass. Whoa. Oh,
Starting point is 00:53:20 suddenly everybody's, everybody can smell it and they feel the magic. Oh, is that old Bay? You put it in a big bag. You pop the bag it and they feel the magic. Oh, is that Old Bay? You put Old Bay in a big bag. You pop the bag in the middle of the party. Everyone's covered. Everybody's covered in Old Bay.
Starting point is 00:53:31 They're sticky. They feel like crabs. I've been pulling, doing that thing, you know, people do. Well, you kind of pull your pants and underwear out a little bit, bend up the, pull on the waistband, and then you shake a little Old Bay down in there. It's nice. Yes, yes. Down the bvds the way that you can use a dr brauner soap as an 18 and one uh home remedy you can do that
Starting point is 00:53:53 with old bay i got into a little hot water once with jay-z i was at a bar and i was it was sort of a um it was like a fish and chips bar type place. And they're like, do you want anything for your fish and chips? I was like, oh yeah, yeah. I love Old Bay. And Jay-Z was in the table next to me. He was like, in the booth next to me. He was like, what did you just say about, I was like, Old Bay. And he was like, oh, you don't talk about my wife like that.
Starting point is 00:54:18 Right. Did he say, keep your wife's, my wife's name out your fucking mouth? She said, he said, keep that spice out of your mouth oh he slapped me he slapped the waiter everybody damn anyway uh that was my little story jeff what do you got see i thought that was gonna end up in like a song that like you know you ran into jay-z at like an old bay bar or whatever you said normally that it turns into like a fun little song not tonight if if he was there and he had to do something he'd probably be like you crazy for this one rick isn't a smart idea of jay-z to when he was doing his first album because we've all heard the
Starting point is 00:55:06 first album a hard knock life volume one and then the unedited version it's like before and after the songs you hear a lot of like oh i think i'm ready oh they cut that out and smart. Like, wow, man. Wow, man. There's so many buttons on that thing. Oh, no. It sort of solidified his persona as this cool streetwise guy. But if he left those in, we'd be like, eh. Yeah. He's more MC Paul Barman like.
Starting point is 00:55:38 Yeah. And not a stoned scaredy cat like Shaggy. Yeah. Oh. Wait, is MC Paul Barman the guy who said he'd keep a tidy room for heidi glute clue yeah he was a like the early 2000s he was like a funny rapper you played that song for me back in college and that inspired uh verse two of tom collins i'll go to hell and back for a sazerac right right right right you you mentioned this on the blowout, The Better Show.
Starting point is 00:56:05 The Better Show. When we were talking about... Oh, The Better Show. www.patreon.com slash the sloppy boys. You pay $5 a month, you hear better pods. Yeah. What did we do? Notes and Demos it was called. No, no. Demos, Memos and Demos. Memos and Demos. Man, that's a good episode.
Starting point is 00:56:23 I wish I was listening to that right now. Way better than tahin teeny but hey let's give our final thoughts eh well you know mine order again that's it not too much though because i i would do the rimmed one like that's how i would make it excuse me but mike you're cartoon drunk i don't yeah Your hat's on backwards. You're hiccuping. You're like Dumbo when he fell into the ale. I had the damn hiccups earlier today, and I forgot about the thing that if you had the hiccups,
Starting point is 00:56:52 you usually get them another time in the day. Anyway, I would go back to the Tahin Rim, and it's order again for me. I wouldn't do too many of these in a row just because they are so salty. Yeah. But I like the taste. What if you like the salt? Yeah, but like you mentioned before,
Starting point is 00:57:13 I'm the blood pressure guy at my doctor's office. I probably shouldn't be drinking all this salt. Age salt fish and chips. But I do like. For me, it's an order again but much like the caesar i don't feel like i dialed in my perfect tahini you know i didn't find it on this episode
Starting point is 00:57:34 which is sad that is sad because time's running out like when are you going to find out for one of the main characters of the show not to find peace with the the drink of the day is not good but it leaves a lot on the table for what could happen in the future yeah which is beautiful yeah it makes you what gives you a reason to get out of bed in the morning to think toward you have some direction to sort of crack this thing i wake up think, I got to get to the liquor store as soon as it opens and get some more vermouth. I ran out of my vermouth just on this last one.
Starting point is 00:58:11 Tim, your thoughts, please. Submit them to the council. As scripted, Mike Hanford's test kitchen recipe, I really struggle with it because I do feel like the olive rind banged up against that tahini in a way so so i might have some tweaks but but i agree it's
Starting point is 00:58:33 it's order again in that a lot of times we say that like oh if i'm at a good bar whatever like no i i do think this is one in my home that I'll tinker with. I could imagine myself reaching for that tahini again. Am I more excited about Old Bay? Yes. Am I more excited about Sally Salt? Yes. But I do have a good amount of tahini floating around, and I love martinis. So it's an A-A-O-A-O-A order again.
Starting point is 00:59:04 It's an angry orchard? Now, I'm glad you guys enjoyed. I would, yes, I open it up to anyone to test out the different levels. If you're not a salt person, maybe go less on the olives, whatever. But Tahin is working for me. That's our show.

Ooh, sesame seeds all over the rim of a glass sesame like the top of a bun i thought you're gonna say a bug guy i did i i just scrolled through our episode guide and in uh in november i created yeah the fall highball yes of course right but no one even ordered that either i don't think no but i have to say having we've all created cocktails on the show jeff the yule mule the
Starting point is 01:00:52 black lagoon mike the the russian root all kinds of stuff grimace piss we all came up with together we all did together i've done uh several but i have to say what when they flew under the radar that might be the best like everyone talks calpe cordial oh tim you're a genius everyone talks fall i know what he's gonna say i kind of think i kind of think the southern sipper yeah that might is my great achievement because it's there's something about the equal parts whiskey and uh peach schnapps peach schnapps and rye whiskey no less is that right or no and and i and i put a little dash of peyote's bitters if you have but everyone if you get peach schnapps you notice it's a strong flavor but i i balanced it right and if if you're sitting around your home with if you have peach schnapps and you
Starting point is 01:01:45 balance it with the whiskey it's good is that all that was with those two and then you said the uh bitters well and page shows bitters wait but is it rye or nah uh i'm just whiskey i think i said bourbon in fact okay but see that's a good one. It's tough to remember. What is it? Porch sipper? No, what's it called? Southern sipper. Southern sipper. Well, and also, you're supposed to make it, and then when you sip it, you think about all your many regrets in life. Your regrets. And also, it's the dog days of summer.

Starting point is 01:02:29 all your regrets. You could have done more. You think you could have done things differently, but hey, you didn't, you know, you just didn't. But you sort of have a rueful grin.
Starting point is 01:02:40 And you're like, this guy maybe had something to do with it all. He's living in a nice, beautiful mansion. You never had to. You didn't have to pull the plug on that wife while she had so many years left in her. You didn't have to. You didn't have to hold those kids underwater. They could have grown up.
Starting point is 01:02:55 Yeah, it's bittersweet, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah, it's bittersweet. All right. That's a bittersweet one. You know, you think about it. As long as you take a moment to think it over
