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 Mike Hanford.
Ooh, hi.
And Tim Kalpakis.
What is up?
And we are your hosts, the band, the Sloppy Boys.
Now you can hear us giggling, folks.
And it's probably because we are live.
I thought we said we weren't going to talk about it.
We're going to talk about it.
We have to talk about it.
But also, we're not live.
We're not live.
We're not live.
This is a mess.
This is a mess. We're alive. That's what I meant to say. We're alive with excitement. Yeah, we're not we're not live we're not live we're not live this is a mess this is a mess we're alive
that's what i meant to say we're alive with excitement yeah we're alive with excitement
we're alive with excitement because folks we are hopefully coming to you on video if all goes well
if all goes well and if you all pay the patreon level you'll see us digitally i don't know if
that's how it will be. As far
as we know, it just means we're rolling on
video. We're just seeing each other.
We always see each other
when we're recording the podcast.
Yeah, this is not really different. But now maybe
the audience could see us. It's just that we're
juiced up. Yeah, I'm pretty juiced.
I took a shower for this. Usually
there's flies buzzing about.
Yeah, your hair looks great. I know.
Well, thanks.
I combed it because I knew I was going to be on TV.
Mike, why you got to do the whole shower?
And why don't you just kind of wash your head if you're going to only have your face on camera?
Well, I was in the shower.
That's what I kind of did, Tim, actually.
But all of me was in the shower.
But special emphasis on his head yes yes the the head got the treat the uh shampoo and conditioner treatment okay
and then i just i just left the ass
there were some memes a couple years ago about how uh guys don't wash their legs that it was
like you just kind of watch like the
pits and the crotch and the butt and then
the hot spots keep moving
the hot spots
I never really thought about I don't even know what I
was doing before but ever since that
thing was memed now I'm scrubbing
the shit out of these legs man I got the
bar I got the Irish spring right
on the calf going
all that hair really eats up the soap you know I got the Irish spring right on the calf going.
Well, all that hair really eats up the soap, you know?
You're like sanding it down, sanding down a good bar.
It would have lasted a while.
The bar's got a big curve in the middle of it because where he was washed. It kind of does.
I'm telling you, I'm back on bars.
The body wash era is over.
No more loofahs.
I'm like a kid in the 90s just grabbing a bar of zest and putting it right on my body.
Just craving it.
The body wash was a short-lived phenomenon for me.
I got it.
And I was like, yeah, I'll do the puffer and everything.
And then I said, you know what?
I like the bar.
I like the bar, too.
But lately, I'm a Bronner's guy.
I'm a Dr. Bronner disciple.
But that's in a loofah, right?
I go just chest hair.
What about legs?
That's kind of what I do is I use the chest hair as a loofah and then I'm going back for more.
That's Grand Central.
And then the soles kind of just go from there.
You detach your chest hair mop.
It's a quick hop to the armpits.
That's great.
That's no problem.
I'd say just do the armpits and let those things squirrel all around.
Scrub the whole thing.
Squirrel all around.
If I could get my armpits to detach and wash the rest of my body, I'd be a rich man.
That would rock.
Well, what's going on with you guys?
I wanted to say something about the Dr. Bronner's.
I tried that stuff once and I went too hard on it and went right to some sensitive zones with a full undiluted.
The nard.
Yeah.
And that's not where that's but it then starts getting real hot
it got real spicy you didn't do that thing where you put the nozzle right up to your meatus and
then squeeze the bottle and it emptied the whole thing right up into your urethra did you i didn't
do that thing oh yeah a lot of people are doing that thing that one i didn't do that one i didn't do
it is uh it's spicy i love that stuff and as you know in college i read on it's got the crazy
ramblings on the label and it says it's 18 and 1 uses and i was using it for all the i i i brushed
my teeth with it that's the one that always sounds crazy to me. Well, no, the craziest one is that I did my fucking laundry with it.
Wow.
That is.
If you had a dog, you'd wash the dog, too.
That's true.
But there's a nice uniformity to be like, smell my teeth.
Now smell my clothes.
Same soap.
That's Tim's smell.
Wait, so it's body wash, shampoo, laundry detergent, toothpaste.
Dishes.
Dishes.
Floor.
Mop the floor.
Yeah, I don't know how they get to 18.
18?
Well, they kind of spread it out.
They're like, you can do your top teeth.
Hey, you can do your bottom teeth too.
Each tooth is a different one.
How many teeth we got?
32?
Is that an adult human?
Sounds about right. Sounds like it. It's not not worth googling i don't know the show nah uh hey wait flavor wise though you doing peppermint i'm all
peppermint um yeah that i mean i have also i like the almond one because it smells like disarono
but uh but yeah the spicy peppermint one is the way to go and you really scrub hard and
then you come on you're like ouch there's a movie about dr bronner himself and um he's demonstrating
how you use it sometimes he like puts it right on a towel and he rubs it all but he's like
standing naked in his bathroom toweling down and he's talking about how to use it and he's like
first you move your bowels and then you do this i'm like i'll move my bowels on my own schedule don't you worry that's not your jurisdiction
i thought you're gonna say it's like a movie about dr brauner like elijah wood is dr brauner
like the air treatment or the or i don't know just like a like a hollywood movie it's just
the guy made his own movie and he kicks it off with clear in the bowels i mean the the documentary as far as i remember goes nowhere it's like hey this is
the soap guy all right dang hey speaking of the multiplex do i have news for you too
yes well i thought you'd say like wow do you wow what? Wow. What's the news? No, I'm hoping it's Deadpool related.
Is it Deadpool related?
Well, here's the thing.
Deadpool, we both know, comes out.
We all know.
All three of us.
July 26, 2024, Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackers.
And don't forget Taylor Swift, possibly rumored.
Oh, right.
But before we have all that fun.
Yeah.
Despicable Me 4, July 3rd.
Yes, the boys are back.
I'll be there.
I'll be there.
The Minions 2.
Wait, I don't think that we cover, we don't cover Minion News.
We do Deadpool because Mike thinks Ryan Reynolds is the funniest comedian.
No, Tim, Minion News is taking over Deadpool News.
No, no, no.
I think Hugh Jackman's the funniest comedian.
Oh, wait till you see this trailer.
The Minions are back, baby.
I don't care for Gru.
I don't care for Gru and his family, but the Minions.
God, I love them.
I saw it at a screening of Zone of Interest,
which seemed like an interesting pairing for that movie.
Oh, I thought I was breaking news here.
But you didn't even mention, Jeff, that I saw news that Deadpool has wrapped principal photography.
Wow.
That's a good update.
That's what Deadpool is. but on the minion front remember when we all three of us were going to see the last minions movie
some some slophead uh recognized one of us in the lobby was like hey mike yeah oh oh jeff oh
tim oh jesus all of you yeah of course it was embarrassing oh god why do you guys what are you
doing but my favorite one of those ever though was when we were at the hopscotch music festival and we're making our way
through the crowd and a guy saw Jeff and then he turned to me and he goes,
that's like, I just saw that. Can you believe that?
Like you'd be impressed. Like you've been sitting on a plane with me.
Please. You're preaching the choir. Yeah, I know.
I'm sure a hotel room with him. How about that?
All right. Can we get into a little booze news, please?
Sure.
Yes, hit it.
King of Thrones.
My eyes are getting weary.
My back is getting tight.
I'm sitting here in traffic on the Queensboro Bridge tonight.
Cause baby, all my life I will be driving home to you.
Fucking sick.
King of Thrones was sent to us by Kyle, a.k.a. X-Height on the Discord.
And if you have a theme,
email it,
email it to the sloppy voice podcast at gmail.com.
And if you want to befriend Kyle,
subscribe to our Patreon,
join the discord and Kyle's going to be a buddy.
Do we want to befriend Kyle?
What the fuck was that?
Well,
I said King of Thrones. I remember Mike saying King of Thrones.
Oh,
right. King of Queens. You called game of Thrones, King of Thrones. I remember Mike saying King of Thrones. Oh, right.
King of Queens.
You called Game of Thrones King of Thrones,
and then we made fun of it,
talking about like it's a King of Queens type show.
And then he took the liberty of adding all the flatulence.
And then adds the farts, right?
Yeah.
Because maybe Kevin James' character.
Which is lowbrow, lowest common denominator type shit.
I think that was Kevin James' character,
one of his personality traits on that
show. He farted all the time.
Alright.
I watched Kevin James' new stand-up
special on Netflix and he's got
a dyed beard.
Much like Marshall Mathers.
You know when a guy has a jet black beard?
And Kevin James has
a big shaved head now and a big dark beard.
And he kind of slimmed down.
It's a whole new Kevin James.
Remember that meme?
That's a funny move.
Oh, the meme is great where he just looks like a little shit.
Another guy shaved his head and has the goatee.
One of the two and a half men.
You know the guy? He creepy john crier yes john crier not pulling off the look hopefully kevin james is rocking it and he's got
another again not pulling i know none of them are and john crier has a new multi-game sitcom that's like another go around the here we go another go around the bend another
go around with your step kids this time i'm with i'm living in a situation that's a little
different than usual but also different than two and a half men oh god yeah john cryer's got that
look like i know like andrew tate is a muscle man
i guess like he's got muscles you know andrew tate i'm not sure who that is hold on he's like
the uh he's a toxic uh you don't know who the entertainer is oh yes yes he's got like a shaved
head and a goatee and he just looks kind of like yeah kind of like a pushover. He looks kind of, I don't know.
A dingus.
He looks like a dingus.
And he doesn't look like Charles Barkley,
or he definitely doesn't look like The Rock or Jason Statham.
Nah.
Damn.
But I mean, I think that's just a playbook.
Lots of guys, as soon as they're losing their hair,
they just shave it.
But I like a balding, like you leave some fuzz back back there be a little shaggy back there it's great you look unique i think so i think it's tough though if somebody's like a muscle man
that look is more of a uh 70s muscle man look what is the bald with the hair still some fuzz
shit tell that to the fast and the furious crew
they all got that look i know but that's i would love to i'd love to stop by set they should make
a new fast and furious movie that's all that they got flappy hair fucking 13 celebrities i'd love to
have a day like that i'd love to have some of the biggest, both physically and a box office celebrities in
front of my face and me telling them that their hairstyle doesn't work. It is funny though,
like those movies to me literally would be better if instead of just shiny cue balls and muscular,
like if those guys had different flappy hair and different hair, like, well, it would just be like
more to look at.
You'd be like,
well,
that guy's got male pattern baldness.
That guy's got a bald spot up top.
This guy's got ally of Frady hair.
More to look at,
more to digest,
more to digest him.
Some of these,
some of these,
uh,
cars in this movie are going out to space.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And you need more.
But Tim likes to tune into a human, human you know he doesn't love all that
like flash and bang sort of stuff um also uh on the bald head front a whole cast on the whole cast
bald head front breaking bad that was sort of like a thing they ultimately did like hank hank like Hank, Hank, Jesse, Walt, eventually shaves his head. Jesse,
Walt,
and Mike Ehrmantraut,
Mike Ehrmantraut,
Gus,
short hairs all around.
Jesus Christ.
And they say that,
um,
short hair and like the receding hair is a trait of high testosterone.
I think that's why all these things do it.
Not us.
Low T.
Three, three sloppy boys with three big pompadours
not one sperm between us wait what's the actual booze news we did the thing again where we just
yeah we're not that's okay do we have any i don't have any okay um this was a the type of thing that i like to ignore until it is sent to me by
a disproportionate amount of uh slop heads and i simply couldn't ignore it and then i said oh i
see why you're sending me this because it might tick off a certain mike hanford um i'm linking
you to it but tick off it's not what i do this a. A viral video on Instagram recently, a drink called Shrek Piss.
Ah, yes.
It is a green, yellow, Long Island iced tea type drink invented by the Instagram account Tipsy Goat Cocktails.
Went viral.
But Shrek Piss comes right on the heels of Mike's Grimace Piss.
It does.
Suspiciously on the heels, yeah.
Suspiciously, yes.
Jeff, I thank you for saying that.
I couldn't finish that word.
It's also coming.
This might make a little sense time-wise.
We came out with Grimace piss.
They have more than enough time
to get Shrek piss in the test kitchen.
Yeah.
I don't like this.
They're hacks.
And like, is Shrek having a moment right now?
Oh, he's been having a moment since 2021.
Yeah, but Grimace was the star of the month.
When you came out with star of the month.
Grimace, you win star of the month.
I think, I mean, McDonald's chose to make Grimace the star of that month.
I think that Shrek is having like a resurgence in an ironic way.
Like, did you see that there's like a Shrek, Shrek is having like a resurgence in an ironic way. Like, did you see that?
There's like a Shrek, Shrek rave and there's all these ravers dressed like Shrek.
It's like, there's, there's, there's winky Shrek-y winkiness going around.
And I feel like that, you know, like remember a couple of years ago, everyone was like referencing
Frasier, like it was the funniest reference.
And then now Frazier is just back and you're like, well, reference it enough.
And there you go.
Yeah.
Man.
Wait, Shrek.
I feel like Shrek's been, been sort of a funny quote unquote random punchline for like years.
Yeah.
It's cause like, you know what I mean?
Like we were kind of too old for Shrek really.
Like people, um, five, 10 ten years younger than us like grew up with
Shrek and that's like a funny reference it's still
good to them you know it's like Pokemon or Arthur
or something remember when
Tim and Eric did a thing where they would they went
to the Shrek movie that was great like green paint
they're like nobody was paying for it
and they just did ads just took it
out on themselves to do a whole fleet of
ads for what is it Shrek 3
they did a press
junkie and they were like the weight is ogre oh god um that's good wait but here listen to the the
the recipe here for shrek piss is a whole you know like it's in the genre of like an amf or a
or a long island it's uh tequila peach schnapps gin
triple sex sour apple pucker watermelon pucker midori sweet and sour mix pineapple juice so it's
it's you know like half ounce of a bunch of million different things sure and a bunch of
those are bright green to start with like midori and midori watermelon pucker i assume you could
probably lose a lot of these and still have the same effect
but they really want they went it doesn't seem like it's the type of drink that's made to be
ingested right it feels like it's just an instagram video yeah unlike the grimace piss
right right right grimace piss was meant to be brought onto a podcast and not really fully
dialed in yet and then have it taste really bad and then have the creator act
like it wasn't his fault yeah the three of us the three of us came kind of came up with that
together so the three of us made that and tested it the creator keeps saying that yeah the creator
is very uh sticking to that point he's sticking with that idea yeah very much you know you don't
see steve jobs out there saying like actually you, you know, we all did this. No, because his products took off some of them. Yeah. But he's not out there
trying to push the credit onto other people. He stands by his product. Right. Because he's got
good quality products that everyone's buying. No one liked the Grimace Piss. So now I need to bring
others in. Well, I'm, Hey, I like it over Shrek piss, Mike.
Thank you.
You'll never catch me drinking Shrek piss.
Good.
Puss in Boots spits.
I'll never catch you drinking a Grimace piss again.
Maybe.
You might.
Constantly.
Is that it for Booze News?
Wrap it up. Excitebike?
That's wrapped
That was great
Does anyone know it?
No, no
I'm gonna guess Ninja Turtles
No, close
So close
You couldn't be much closer, Mike
Oh, Double Dragon
Battletoads?
Yes, Battletoads
Fuck
I never thought about that Battletoads. Fuck. I never thought about that.
Battletoads came after.
That's stupid.
But at least they didn't do like the, you know,
they didn't try to do an analogy for every word in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
It wasn't like Mighty Morphin Power Ranger.
Yeah.
Adolescent freakazoid middle-, aardvarks or whatever.
That's not bad.
Okay, with booze news shrinking into the rear view once again,
we turn our attention to the drink of the day.
Bye.
Who's got it?
I do.
And you guys must recall a couple weeks ago that we did a drink called the gin fizz
oh yeah still hung over from that one it was quite tom collinsy indeed was it not
sure but it did have that froth and it had that clonk clonk clonk ice because due to the egg white
and we learned that a fizz is basically a sour with soda uh and there were
in the late 1800s early 1900s there was a lot of fizzes uh but today we're tackling the big mama
the one that made its way uh to the international bartenders association cocktail list and we're almost the most popular yeah yeah
we're in the home stretch on this one um but this year drink is called the ramos fizz the ramos
we guys say ramos ramos what are we gonna say ramos ramos ramos i'm thinking of harold ramus
i've heard people say Ramos
I listen to some podcasts
And watch some YouTube videos
About this
But I'm going to say Ramos
Because I like it better
Ramos
Fizz
Me too
You've had?
No
I almost had Tim
But you pulled it from our lips
We were going to do this one first
And you said
Wait
We're doing Gin Fizz first
So that we can build up
To the big boy
I wanted to tip toe in yes
i have had this one time at uh musso and frank and um it's uh as it's a creamy drink and it
paired poorly with a with a steak it was my it was much like i liked the drink on its own i
remember but like remember when i had the the lamb kidneys in a grasshopper?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was going to say, somebody had a grasshopper with a weird thing.
It was you.
I'm always, you know, like, I'm too excited to try different cocktails there
that I don't think about the pairing with my food.
And then it's just fucking nasty.
They really like those creamy guys, huh?
I bet you could get like a brandy Alexander there and stuff.
You certainly can, Jefferson.
But, so the Ramos Fizz, this is a drink.
The big thing is that it's famous for how long you shake it.
And there's a lot to talk about the shake.
How do you shake?
How do you shake?
Now, is Ramos a famously shaky person?
That's what's weird.
I'll shut up.
He had such a steady hand.
So it was ironic.
It's like calling a big guy tiny. He had such a steady hand. So it was ironic. It was like calling a big guy tiny.
He was terrible at making these.
No, this is one of the very rare cocktails
that the IBA put the history on the website.
They don't normally do that,
but for this one, they can.
Yeah, it's good for podcasting though, Kent.
Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
Yeah, here it is.
It's brief.
The drink was invented by Henry Ramos in 1888 at his bar,
Myers table,
the hotel international in,
uh,
new Orleans.
The Ramos fizz was originally shaken for 12 minutes by a crew of 30
bartenders who passed the shaker from one to another.
Uh,
yes.
Wow.
That's funny about to another. Ah, yes. Wow.
That's funny.
About that hotel,
my other research shows that Henry Ramos actually,
he invented it at that hotel,
but then he opened his own bar
called the Imperial Cabinet Saloon.
Oh, good for him.
That's where it got popular.
And then the Fairmont Hotel
bought the rights to the drink
and popped it around to other cities.
And that's what really made it spread coast to coast.
But my understanding of this drink, I was kind of like, why?
When?
Like, I know you don't have it with a big steak, but it seems like it's a daytime drink.
It's an afternoon, old timey post lunch type of afternoon drink.
When you're ready for something that's eggy and frothy, I guess.
Sounds like half your meal. Sounds like the back half of a meal.
It does feel like it would be
like the original M-Drive, meal replacement.
Actually, no, M-Drive says
you should eat a light breakfast with your
M-Drive. Thank you very much.
Are you still on M-Drive?
Send me some more product.
I've finished my
M-Drive and I would love for them to send me more, but it's
a hell of a powder, I'll tell you that.
And it looks
good in the cup.
Oh my god, please.
Gorgeous.
You know what, I do have
I don't have any of the normal protein
left, but I do have M-Drive Brain
and M drive green.
You need those.
Okay.
So folks, uh, the thing with the drink is the shaking.
Everyone taught no one, no one's really doing the full 12 original 12 minute shake.
But, uh, you know, Ramos had like shaker boys, like a
line of boys and then he'd pass it down
and shake. So these days
at any classic cocktail bars that make it
there's strong opinions about how long you
shake it for and if you do the dry shake, do you
not put the ice in? When do you put the egg in?
Do you add the soda when it's
shaking or what do you add the soda after?
So we're just going to stick to
the IBA recipe here which is when it's shaking or when you've had the soda after so uh we're just gonna stick to the iba
recipe here good which is 45 millimeters milliliters gin ounce and a half 15 milliliters
fresh lemon juice joist de limon half an ounce uh 30 milliliters one ounce sugar syrup i'm guessing
that's simple uh 60 milliliters yeah okay yeah i
have something to say about this go ahead yeah why is there not uniformity why do they sometimes say
they do it with the soda water too because soda water is club soda right yes and they've said
club soda in other menus i believe yes go ahead it's just something that pisses me off uh 60 milliliters two ounces
cream cream i think that to be heavy whipping cream okay good probably 30 milliliters one ounce
egg white now we're getting fancy here guys three dashes orange flower water. Yeah. This was a tough one.
Keep going.
I knew it.
You're almost done.
Two drops vanilla extract and soda water.
Here's the method.
Pour all ingredients except soda water into a cocktail shaker with ice.
Shake for two minutes.
Double strain in a glass.
Pour the drink back in the shaker and hard shake without ice for one minute.
Strain into a highball glass, top up with soda.
Wow.
Okay.
So wet shake before dry shake.
Yes.
Yes.
I've never heard of such a thing. This is going to be... I don't understand what the purpose
would be to
strain it, pour it back in, shake
it, because then you're just adding the
topping up with the soda right at the end.
I can't understand it.
I'm going to do it,
but I don't understand what it's all about.
I mean, you know what would be fun?
Usually, we do this during the break, but it would be
fun if we were doing two minutes of shaking on pod
that would be a funny thing
yeah it would be
but we can't we gotta go in our kitchens and do it
it's also like we gotta come up with
a name or a distinction
for drinks that are just like a pain in the ass
to make
you know because there's so many drinks I'm like
I don't know if I'd make it again
I'd order it again but like I call it the IBA five.
It ruins my kitchen to make a drink like that.
Yeah.
I mean, and that's this is like the foremost of those drinks.
This drink is famous as an eye roll when you order and a bartender goes, OK, OK, you must have been listening to this lobby boy.
Even on our pod, we avoided it for three years.
Yeah.
But not today, folks. We're avoidant. oh yeah anxious avoidant that's our love language our yeah yeah right attachment style attachment style here's what i'll say
what are you guys doing for this orange water i'll tell you mike the motherfucker. Oh, what am I doing for the orange
flower water? I got the shit, yeah.
What do you got? Where'd you get it?
I was looking around, I was like,
orange bitters. I bet you Hanford got orange
bitters in place of orange flower water.
Well, that doesn't seem fair to me.
I looked it up
and I saw that it was
not orange bitters.
But I looked up an alternative
and I got an orange and it said,
just like do a bunch of expressing of the thing.
Really?
Okay.
But what about the flower part?
What about rose water?
They got that there.
Oh yeah, it didn't.
The thing didn't mention anything about that.
Okay, interesting.
Well, look, it's only two plops you know exactly no it's three
dashes three dashes i know it's tough it's gonna be have to be a lot of two plops are actually
three dashes well i uh maybe i'll just put the whole peel in there and shake it with it i called
up the two uh liquor stores near me that have kind of uh extended uh what am i trying to say but more more um
sophisticated uh product and they didn't have this damn okay yeah so i said i said damn okay
and i hung up all right you want to get into it yep yeah all right folks we're staring this dragon right in the mouth we're gonna do it today
we're gonna finally do it so we're gonna go make these drinks while you listen to the ads and we'll
be right back after this And we're back with the Ramos Fizz.
Let's see him.
The Fizz is the biz.
I know.
Shaken.
Not stirred.
Thank you.
It's hard to say.
It's a big frother.
The two ounces of cream is a lot of cream, huh?
It is.
I was looking at other recipes.
Don't call for that much.
How big is your fraud
look how big that is like two inches of froth it's quite like all froth yeah it's getting hard
too we should take our sips because i don't like this i know and also to spend so much time like
shaking with karen then to let it sit is sort of yeah i'm gonna take okay here we go sips sips
oh my god Oh my God. Oh.
I don't know.
I'm like fighting through a heavy meringue up top.
Yeah, the meringue is tough, but.
Yeah, mine, it's fully whipped into whipped cream, huh?
Fully whipped, fully whipped.
I know, I can't really get through, but the liquid beneath is good.
The liquid beneath.
What lies beneath, that's nice.
It could be an album title the liquid beneath i mean this is unlike anything we have had on the podcast it's whipped cream thick cool whip on top
that's why there's so much shaking jeff's got uh well what's suggestively creamy lips that he's licking oh come on not suggestively um but it's just funny
like it's a it's a thick lathery meringue and then the taste you're getting like lemon lime
and little seltzer bubbles in there it certainly tastes like something from 1888 yes yeah that's
true like like when as i was making it i was of, I never had these, but like an egg cream.
Isn't that like a malt?
Like an egg cream is like a malt.
What is an egg cream?
I read that this was inspired by the egg cream because it's around that time.
Okay.
I like the taste of it.
I like the taste of it.
Mm-hmm.
I really think that vanilla is the...
doing the champions...
pulling the champions load on this one.
Pulling the champions load?
I'm trying to get that going now.
Oh, yeah.
That's what you want to get going with all the things?
Mm-hmm.
That's the one.
I'm trying to make fetch happen.
Oh, don't make fetch happen. Did you see the new... I want to. No, I... This year, I'm trying to make Fetch happen. Oh, don't make Fetch happen.
Did you see the new... I want to.
No, this year I finally want to.
How much do they talk about Fetch in the new high school?
What's it called?
They talk about the Mean Girls.
The new high school.
I was going to say high school musical.
They touch on it in the new Fletch movie.
Stop trying to make Fletch happen.
Yeah.
The reason I said high school musical
is because it happens in high school
and it's a musical.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay, okay.
Okay, you caught me.
You caught me.
Jeff, are you getting enough?
Is your vanilla pulling the hero's load?
Yeah, it's pulling it.
I wish I was getting less citrus
and more vanilla.
Me too.
This is putting me in the mood for like a milkshakehake or a shamrock shake with jameson also this is a very close to my maria
sonando sonando milk and oj yeah it's like oj milk uh condensed milk sugar and vanilla extract
it's got an orange Orange Julius thing going on.
I know.
Okay, so now I am able to drink through the foam, and that's nice.
It is funny to drink this foam, and you're like,
oh, this is going to be a sweet treat, and it just doesn't have flavor.
Yeah.
It's got lemon.
Well, you're right, but it's not like a real pop of uh it tastes empty
right there should be like a middle coming through in the foam or just the whole thing
just the whole the whole thing like uh it's not a bad taste but like if you're gonna have this
much fat and this much these this much calories oh wait a second it just feels It just feels weird. Guys. What? What? I forgot. I forgot my simple syrup.
Oh, there you go.
Yeah, you need it.
Drop a sugar cube in there.
Wait, how much do you put in?
Jeff, what were you going to say?
I cut you off to make my standpoint.
I was going to ask Tim if he'd rather shake this for three minutes or a can of Cardi B's
whip shots.
Definitely this.
Really? Oh, you tried the whip shot. That's right. I can't believe this B's Whip Shots. Definitely this. Really?
Oh, you tried the Whip Shot.
That's right.
I can't believe this shit.
I'll be back.
He's gone.
Yeah, you got to.
You know, it's a drink with so many unique ingredients.
Of course, you're going to forget something like simple syrup.
Got him.
I'm not out here to get anyone.
I'm not here to put the simple syrup, big simple syrup on blast, but somebody's going to.
I always have a shock of terror when I see that many ingredients, because I know I got to cram them all into a little Photoshop tile for at the sloppy boys on Instagram.
You know, you might have to, and I hope you never have to do this, but you might have to go on a panel to.
Oh, no.
For the fucking ingredients.
We had to do that.
We had to do that for the fucking Tom and Jerry, which was similarly complicated.
It was another one that had like egg and cream and you got to shake it up.
You got to get some stiff peaks.
I'll say I think maybe the I don't know if we're here yet, Jeff.
This is your show.
But I would one thing I would do without is maybe the, um, club soda. I feel like it adds no taste and is probably only diluting everything.
Yeah. Um, I thought I didn't need it to get any foamier and then I put in the club soda
and it seemed to react and it like bubbled up. It's like, look at this. I'm
I'm done. And this is, I have this much foam left yeah that's a lot of foam i'm drinking
right through the foam and it's not budging like the foam just allows it by and it's like a it's
like a hockey puck in the middle of my glass hey um guys i was a fool imagine this drink with no
sweetness whatsoever uh it was yeah that's very empty and weird tasting then i added the simple and yeah
now i understand why one would drink this but i was also thinking instead of sweetening up with
simple syrup what if you had done like a like a quantro or or you know like a kick it up a little
bit that takes care of your uh orange too yeah triple sec well yeah instead of simple use triple sec is
what i'm saying the orange spritzing i did the uh expressing i did like two or three or three or
four peels so i really got some i am tasting the orange in here i tasted my orange yeah yeah the
orange flower water see i had to fight it to get it out of that glass me too did you taste it
straight it tasted more it tasted more like flower petals than orange
yeah it's and it's just water that tasted like a flower and it's not coming through in this drink
at all it sucks i actually took a sip of mine before i added the um club soda and it was pretty
good on its own hmm yeah i feel like you're losing a lot of drink to just shaking and then discarding and then shaking
again I feel like you got like a whole quarter of the drink just coating the inside of that shaker
you're not getting it it's inefficient it's a very inefficient drink yeah this is wild did I
tell you guys when I was grabbing ingredients today grabbing the greed this was because this
is one you do a shop shopping trip for this isn't
like oh i happen to have orange flower water i happen to have heavy whipping cream oh yeah this
is this is i'm taking the afternoon off boss i um i get into the albertsons you know it's one
near tim and me and i hear this there's this fighting going on in like one of the aisles.
No, no, just like, no, no, not like that.
Just like a couple arguing. You bastard!
Oh, you bitch!
You bastard!
Mike, you're getting it.
That's kind of how it was.
And then I see this poor guy just taking all this heat.
I was like, damn, too bad.
Handsome fellow though.
Okay.
Where you could tell...
Hey, he's got something going on for him.
You could tell he was really handsome in like the 90s, 2000s. handsome fellow though okay where you can tell uh hey he's got something going on for him you
could tell he was really handsome in like the 90s 2000s that's all that's i know the look
yeah jtt haircut but you know me i'm like none of my business i'm here for orange flower water
i'm here for the beer going on about my way and then i then I'm looking through the orange flower waters and I hear, dot, dot.
And he comes running up to me.
He's like, I need your help, man.
My girl's so mad at me.
Oh, fuck.
Yeah, yeah.
And I was like, you look so familiar to me.
And he's like, yeah, I'm Enrique Iglesias.
Holy shit.
You might recognize me.
Okay, he really cleared that up for you.
Oh, Jeff. Okay, this is not the first time you've met a celebrity of the Albertsons. Go ahead. Okay, he really cleared that up for you. Oh, Jeff.
Okay, this is not the first time you've met a celebrity of the Albertsons.
Go ahead.
No, I know.
It's Hollywood and I get it, but wow.
And he comes to me.
He's like, my girl's mad.
What do I do?
And I was like, Enrique, I should be asking you this sort of stuff.
And I'm like, I don't know.
You got to get back in her good graces.
You know, I'm making this drink for the pod.
And he saw the laundry, he saw the shopping list I had.
And he said, can I borrow this for a minute?
I said, yeah, sure, if you think it'll help.
And then I saw him around the corner
and he went to talk to his girl again.
And I'm listening, right? I go, I want to hear, like, what's he went to talk to his girl again and i'm and i'm listening right i go i want
to hear like what's what's he up to what's what's he he's gonna try and get back in his girlfriend's
good graces with a bunch of ingredients on a list what the hell that's not i don't understand how
that's like i know we're we're into you know cupid month but that's i've never heard it done that way
no but so you know what i did and i pulled out's, I've never heard it done that way. No.
But so, you know what I did?
I pulled out my phone and I pressed record on my voice memos.
I want to hear this.
Yeah.
So this is what he said.
Oh my God.
I can't believe he said this.
He said that? Oh.
He sounds good.
Beautiful voice. Don't let the gin out your side Ooh, heavy cream, that's so nice You mustn't forget the egg whites
Fizz Ramos
Combination bubble over
Fizz Ramos
Dash of orange, flower water
Fizz Ramos
Gonna shake it up forever
it's more white really well in where he how he makes them they come out yellow i don't know
he probably probably put the yolk in yeah he's probably pissed them they come out yellow i don't know he probably probably
put the yolk in yeah he's probably pissed in the end hey guys in the end they all come out
and hey and those two left happy as clams that's great wow he sounded great it almost
sounded like he was double tracking on some of his uh yeah i think it was probably echoing off the captain crunch boy that's
that's what it was you could hear it bouncing off the crap yeah
that is that's amazing that's great that you got him uh too happy to help if you see me at
the albertsons you i'll do what i can help you out of a jam so wait what was the argument about
just the ingredients?
Lover's quarrel, Mike.
That's all that is.
Gotcha.
It's just the way it is sometimes with lovers.
Yeah.
That's great.
I like that he said, instead of Ramos Fizz, he said Fizz Ramos.
Yeah.
Because as I am- Fizz comma Ramos.
Right.
I'm doing Duolingo.
Spanish is something you know. I'm about 427 days in every year.
Do they flip that stuff?
Wait, 427 days is over a year?
It's over a year.
If you, yeah, if you're saying like a tomato salad, you say Ensalada de Tomato.
That's probably what it is.
He's just kind of flipping it, you know, because he's a Spanish native, Spanish speaking guy.
That's what it is.
That's what it is.
That's what happened.
All right.
What would you do to change up the drink and make it more to your liking?
More vanilla, less soda.
Yeah.
Is this a strong drink?
I mean, it's two ounces of gin.
It's normal.
Most cocktails start with two ounces and then there's no other alcohol in there.
So I don't know.
I feel like with this drink, I don't know what to change because there's so much stuff in it.
I would add vanilla because I like that.
And would you say, Tim, less soda? That would probably be the way to go too i would maybe do less lemon too i would do less lemon if i could do less lemon lime more oj i think this would be
what yeah why is it lemon and lime is a fucking fucking uh sprite uh yeah yeah yeah is it fucking uh sierra fucking motherfucking mist
hey it's sprite sorry not starry yeah what is this fucking half of a 505 basically
is this the uncola seven up
yeah all right too many ingredients it needs this drink makes me act weird. It's the drink.
It's the drink.
You see?
Yeah.
Well, are we making another one?
It is a pain in the ass, but like, here we are.
We got the stuff.
I'm going to do such a tweak on this.
You won't even know what hit you.
Oh, wow.
Okay.
Coming up.
I'll be honest.
I don't really want a second one, but I have all this bullshit.
And if I don't have it now, I'm never going to have another one one i don't know how i would get through this bottle of cream that i bought
so yes i'm gonna make a second one hey tis the season there you go hey now you know what i'm
gonna do with this cream because i bought eggs too tomorrow when i make some scrambled eggs
yeah i'll put a little cream in that fluff them right up oh michael fluff that shit right up
let's address this because i make scrambled eggs on the regular.
Scrambled.
And I used to do.
No, Mike, it's scrambled.
Milk.
A little dollop.
And then.
No, no, hold on.
Hold on, Jeff.
No, hold on.
I just want to say something.
Crystal clear.
You said the word you meant to say and it was correct.
And then Mike chimes in with scrambled.
Scrambled.
Here's what happens
and we're using some brand new uh digital video system where we can see each other i think that
this new system what's it called restream studio dot io dot io don't plug them anyway yeah don't
plug restream but here's what i want to say it's it's one of these systems i've read about this before in uh popular mechanics tech tech
magazines that there are platforms like this that do turn um bees upside down oh
yes so that's where that was so Mike, I owe you an apology.
I owe you an apology.
You're probably hearing it now. When I'm saying scrambled, you're hearing scrambled, right?
That's probably, it's probably compression.
Totally. It sounds like scrambled, but
you're saying scrambled.
Right, but it's coming out. I'm going to do it again.
Scrambled. Yeah, so that sucks.
So that's maybe going to be the last time we use this.
Well, I apologize and
yeah, this whole thing was a big misunderstanding.
This whole thing is fucked.
I just want to say you're supposed to use water in scrambled eggs, not milk.
Is that true?
No.
Water?
Yep.
No, I think that's wrong.
Wooder.
That would be wrong to do.
No.
I'm saying a little sprinkle of water instead.
And you're going to go to cream?
That sounds extra wrong to me.
I do just egg.
Egg, salt, pepper, a lot of butter in the pan.
But you got to do a real soft scramble.
Real soft.
That soft scramble, that's a fun one.
If you can get it just right.
When I'm in a diner, I order soft scrambled.
Oh, Timmy.
That's good for you, Tim.
I'm going to put some cheese in this.
That's good for me.
I'm putting cheese in these eggs.
And I heard what you said about the pepper and salt, but I'm going to put in a dash.
And I mean just a half dash of garlic salt.
Okay.
Michael.
Mike knows what he likes.
All right, Michael. Mike knows what he likes. All right, folks.
We're going to go make these drinks round two.
And we'll be right back here after this.
Fizz Ramos!
now we're back with round two of the ramos fizz um i did the same thing more vanilla extract and a full shot of quantro okay wow jeff quant Good thinking. That's cool. I cranked up the vanilla, cranked down the soda.
Here we go.
Better?
Better, better.
Yeah, this is better for me, too.
It's more orange Julius.
Yeah, that's what I was going for.
I'm not achieving it.
I did like squoze.
I squeezed a half an orange and then added a lot more vanilla cream and gin.
That's all I did.
And sugar.
Damn.
Simple sugar or simple syrup.
Gin is in.
And it's not very good.
I got to – something's wrong here.
I wanted an Orange Julius with just a hint of alcohol in it.
This one has no foam, though.
I'm jealous of Jeff.
I wish I had the orange juicing does this this i don't know a lemon lime milkshake it's weird orange milkshake is good
i even think adding uh another 30 mil of liquid kind of changed up the chemistry i don't have
that thick brick of foam up top it's a little bit more like worked in oh interesting you know
and you said
you did put the club soda in it.
Yeah, I did it. I did it to specs, but
with just more vanilla and shot of
Cointreau. Okay.
Maybe that Cointreau is eating it away.
It's acidic.
That French Cointreau
is getting into that Spanish fizz.
Oh, I wish I knew a war where they were fighting in.
War of the Roses.
No, that's got to be England, I would assume.
In the old days.
Well, we come to the time for final thoughts.
Mike and Timothy, submit your feelings to the triumvirate.
I say I'm going toumvirate. I say,
I'm going to order it again.
I don't feel like I had a good one of these.
I need to order again just to get the,
this is a real,
I need a professional to make this one for me.
Yeah.
I'm with you.
This might be a first.
Mike said,
order again.
Tim says,
not gonna order again. Tim says not going to order again.
I'm intrigued by the froth.
But lemon and lime in a creamy drink are simply not doing it for the tea man.
And even with the sugar in there, I still think it's lacking a middle.
And I don't know what that is.
Something's got to punch right through the middle.
Maybe the triple sec did it. So we the bass boom boom boom and we got the treble
yeah where are those nice rich mids yeah where is somebody like me gonna fit into the street
can i tell you something instead of my place instead of gin dark rum
that would stank it up
that's good Tim
that would give us that flavor
Timmy you've done it Timmy
you've done it again
it's pretty good
as I expected this is for me not an order
again so much as a
no no no I'm sorry it is
an order again but it is not a make again
yeah yes definitely not but my kitchen is trashed man it's so gross yeah it sucks egg cream and like
actual ingredients like vanilla extract come on damn jeff aside from the vanilla extract you
sound like the scrambled eggs i'm gonna make tomorrow oh god oh it's it turned your b upside
down again.
It did again.
Fuck.
I thought, yeah, I thought there was a setting.
I was fucking with some settings.
Damn.
A setting.
There's a setting that says bees right side up.
Yeah, I want those up.
But you got to untick that box.
I know I did, but I think I need to restart the whole thing.
