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. Hello, hello. And Tim Kalpakis. What is up? And we are your hosts, back once again for another thrilling week. Oh, and I'm sure you're probably listening to this right now and saying,

Oh, you know what? I'll listen. And then I'll go watch it on YouTube. Good luck. Cause he, they cause yeah, good luck.

We don't do that anymore. That is done. We ditched the video. We don't like it. We stopped. We, we asked ourselves, does this spark joy?

No. Does this serve us? No. Then cut it out of your life it's toxic we condoed it it's toxic we condoed it and more importantly the fans didn't like it people were not responding i don't know if that's true i think the fans did like it they liked it but no one watched it you see what i mean yeah the fans may have liked it you try that stuff because because you're like hey there's a whole new fan base on youtube some people don't consume media unless it's on youtube yeah and then it just it just tanked our existing pod ratings and like we're not set up to monetize on youtube so it's like what the fuck are we doing this for i know it's it's back to back to normal and when when themes start

getting blocked that's the last straw that's the last straw we have this for? It's back to normal. And when themes start getting blocked, that's the last straw. That's the last straw. We have to get our art out into the world. Yeah. I just think it's also a little humiliating to be like, you know, we had a Patreon episode at the beginning of this year that was the State of the Union. We were talking about where are we taking the pod and stuff.

And we were like, you know what? We've reached the tipping point. Every podcast has to do video. We don't want it, but we have to do it. And then we did it. And then it like no difference. So you're just like, what was this compromise for? And then finding out from other podcast friends who were like, oh yeah, no one watches the YouTube. What are we doing? Yeah. Mitch was like, it's not worth it. Yeah. It's like, oh geez. Well, I'm glad we did that. I'm glad we tried it. If you saunter into a studio and they're all set up with like 4k cameras, it's like oh geez well i'm glad we did i'm glad we tried it if you saunter into a studio and

they're all set up with like 4k cameras it's like yeah go do it because you're gonna look like all the pods on all the flat on all the social platforms that have their little clips i don't think we've heard the last video but um no not for now i'm glad we tried it and now we're just we're just taking it back walking it back to be honest with you this is on video because we might clip this out and use something. Yeah, you got to use something. Because we still like the clips. If you got a podcast and you don't do clips, come on.

What are you even doing? What are you even doing? You know, we were talking here just about like a new, you know, I'm so big these days on what's next in media. We're on the edge of something. You always notice when we're on the edge of something huge. I don't know what's going to happen, but i always have that feeling something big's coming yeah i i've been watching a lot of this netflix is doing everything live now it's live there's roasting tom brady you noticed that i've noticed now no i've been watching milaney's thing i enjoy that you watch milaney

you watch tom brad tom brady and then you just said no wait a second wait everything every single thing i've been watching lately on netflix so it's not so much a forecast you wait until the thing fully drops and then you notice the pattern this is where the forecast comes in i'm watching these things i'm saying why are they doing this why the why the live push what's happening then i come to find out that netflix has acquired wwe so i think what they're doing they're testing out their live capabilities see what they can get maybe we start getting some football they might want some football sending out these comedians as uh canaries and coal mines i think you're right sacrificing ourrificing our friend Dave Ferguson.

The comedians are the test for the wrestlers. We're in a new uncharted territory. Send in the comedians. Common wisdom might say, now Mike, doesn't it look like maybe they are going to be doing live, are more interested in doing live comedy events? A Tom Segura show, a Kevin Hart

packs in the Cowboy Stammer. Yes, maybe that's packs in the, uh, cowboy statement. Yes. Maybe that's true. Maybe that's also what they're doing. Um, we can't tell, we can't tell, we can't tell, but exciting times to say the least. It's very similar to the video thing, right? Where we were kind of being like, when all podcasts moved to YouTube, we were like, the very point of a podcast is that it's, it's audio only. And now it's on YouTube. We can shoot video. And that's, it's kind of the same thing with a streamer where it's like okay we all used to watch broadcast tv but now we're watching streamers but now the streamers are live

yeah yeah it's a snake eating its own tail tim i've made that conversation i made that argument myself and that's a good impression of it but but who get like i do this all the time we all do it at parties or just like what's this thing that's going who cares it's gonna gather everyone around streamers so you can sputter um i'll tell you one cool thing uh about me uh that netflix reminded me of last week just one stop during the uh during the the the netflix is a joke festival that took over our fair city of los angeles yeah i was i was doing my typical uh uh hike in griffith park um i love to hike sometimes you see a coyote anyway i was hiking and then i'm i'm descending from the hills and i'm and i'm passing the greek theater and very often i'll see oh there's an event going

on who's playing what's going on but this was not the typical clientele i'm walking down here the hill soundcheck was soundcheck what do you hear i i no event had started yet. No soundcheck, but I'm looking at the clientele walking up the Hill. Bro, bro, bro, dude, dude, bro,

bro, dude, dude, dude, dude, bro, bro, bro.

And I said, buddy, dude, bro. This isn't my typical, you know, St. Vincent at the Greek or Crumbin at the Greek or boy genius at the Greek.

No, these boys got some, we got some big boys. Who's Krumbin at the Greek? No. Boy Genius at the Greek? No. These boys got some, we got some big boys. Who's Krumbin? They're a fantastic band. Krumbin, this is the name? Krumb. Oh, Krumbin.

There's like an H in there too? Damn. They're really funny. There's like, they kind of slowly walk around the stage while they play their guitars. Their Coachella set was great. Anyway. I'll do that do that too yeah so you're seeing bro after bro i'm seeing the testosterone level is higher than i'm used to over at the greek it's kind of a kcrw uh public radio type clientele typically so um i i google on my phone who's playing at the greek tonight shane gillis you know famous comedian what do i Buy a ticket, walk right in.

I'm sweaty. I'm wearing my sweats. I'm sweaty. I'll walk right in. I chug a Coors Light. I eat some chicken fingers. I'm laughing it up all the other bros, putting my arms around the guys. It's a boys night, baby.

I had you all wrong. But it was fun to do a spontaneous thing. I tried it once with Olivia Rodrigo. I was like, live right here tonight. And then the tickets were 400 bucks. Right, right, right. I like doing stuff like that as an adult where it's like, I'm out right now. I'm going to go see a movie.

It's four o'clock in the afternoon. It just feels like a weird thing to go into a comedy show with a sweaty sweatsuit on, but you did it. Who's to stop you? Why is that weird? It's not. No, you're being spontaneous. You're living your one life you get. Carpe diem, basically.

Yeah, basically. And with that, do we get into some booze news? Well, we didn't mention Mike's mustache looks fantastic. He's grown up from scratch. Yeah, basically. And with that, do we get into some booze news? Bibbit. Well, we didn't mention Mike's mustache looks fantastic. He's grown up from scratch. It's coming in real good. Oh, yeah. If you squint, yeah, there it is.

Also, Jeff, you mentioned- You're going to be squinting when I see you, Nick, with two black eyes, buddy. You're going to throw a fucking space in your teeth. Two black eyes. One punch, two black eyes. I would beat you up if you continue this line of two punches two jabs at the same time boom top teeth all gone bottom teeth pearly white could you imagine in real life if if someone was like i don't know

what's such a bar yelling and you were like i'm gonna come over there and punch you in the face that sucks so many people do that but i i couldn't imagine saying that to somebody I don't know. And once it's a bar yelling at you, you're like, I'm going to come over there and punch you in the face. That sucks. I mean, people do that, but I couldn't imagine saying that to somebody. Hey, I'm going to come over there and make you have two black eyes. You do my move. You're getting in a fight at a bar and then you point to your friends and you say to the guy

you want to fight, you point to your bigger friends and you say, you fuck with me? My friends are going to fuck you up. And unbeknownst to Mitch and Carll tart and uh alan mcleod i'm pointing at them my boys are gonna kick your ass oh man alan especially did not ask for that what are y'all talking about we're gonna get in a fight me now but I love that guy. But Tim said I gotta fight him. Alright, now do your thing.

Alright, Boozness, here we go. Hit it. Foot in mouth and head in ass? Familiarity, breeding, contempt and whatnot. breeding contempt and whatnot. Dutz does tool and Taylor was sent to us by ad Byerly. And if you have a booze news team, email it to the sloppy boys podcast at gmail.com.

Do you know how disorienting it is to hear your own voice and be like i don't remember saying that yeah yeah right i couldn't what's that from that was that was an obscure one that was obtuse obtuse piece of art the tool one was kind of clever you said a funny thing and it's always like that tool song but then the the taylor uh uh familiarity breeds contempt is just a very popular expression that people say all the time now this i do love that song though uh bejeweled that's my favorite song off midnights is this okay is it uh well i thought we i don't want to talk about her new album i haven't listened i don't care i don't want to tpd we did a lot of the diva stuff pop diva stuff and we're and we backed away from it we backed away

we didn't cover this past blow up but that was except for this this week we're talking to a leap over on the blow up folks check and we're keeping it classy and i'm i'm chilling out on the taylor front but also i do want to do the french blonde cocktail at some point because it is yeah why wouldn't you well hey this is, this is, after all, still a cocktail show. Yes, and it's on its way to possibly being a contender for drink of the summer, for Christ's sake. And podcast of the year, I think. And podcast of the ride.

I don't know if we have that one episode yet this year that's going to get us the best podcast of the year. Yeah. What's your clincher? We had Lamar on. That could be a big one. That was a good one. That was a good one.

But is that going to give us podcast episode of the year? Is that podcast gold? Is that when you're Webby? Maybe. Maybe. I want one of those sterling silver springs

that you see on someone's mantle. The big spring. What is the spring for? It's like, I think that's what a Webby looks like. It's like a big spring. Yeah.

But why the spring? That's a good question. Because the springs, that's what the internet's made of. Back in the day, the internet was a springboard to an actual career. And now we forgot about that. Oh, springboard. That's funny. And now you're just, you're happy with the spring.

We give you your spring and you shut up. You got the spring. It's actual metal. So you take that home. Okay. Booze news for today. Y'all watch Peaky Blinders? No.

No. Too difficult to understand, Tim. But I do know that's where Killian Murphy's been hiding out all these years. Yeah, he's been hiding out over there. What the hell? Tom Hardy, too. Who? Tom Hardy was on for a minute. Ah, Tom

Hardy. Mike. That's a very showtime move to take a beloved character actor and hide them away for a decade. Hide them away. They'll get Emmys, sure. They'll get some Emmys, but does anybody see the show? No. Bill Macy. William

Macy. Half the world is like, who the fuck is Oppenheimer? Ray Donovan. It's like everybody loves that guy and he was just missing for a decade. It's because he's been skulking around over Showtime. Cheadle too. Didn't he go off to do that? Yeah, Cheadle too.

It's funny, Macy, Cheadle, those are beloved character actors that should have been gracing film screens. Yeah. Man, that's such a classic thing. Like, whenever there's an actor you haven't heard of in a while, it's like, whatever happened to them? They either got canceled or they're on a Showtime show. Like, who's got eyes on Clive Owen right now? Anybody got eyes on Clive Owen? The Children of Men director, hopefully.

For Children of Men 2. Yeah, good. The other one is uh costner on uh yellowstone and like i just saw something was like costner's uh you know exit of the show was he wished it didn't happen this way or something like what there's trauma on this that's so stupid because he disappeared for like 20 years and then he had like a couple weird stabs at movies and then has had a huge show and he's not happy with how that went well i don't know if he's not even happy with it but just like the fact that him leaving is a big deal but i think he's going on to make more movies or something i don't know it's costner's world and we're just living more field of dreams more fields of dreams his name's dutton on that show is that right yeah his name's kevin costner sir yes he's part of the dutton family who it's funny though when

now that happens when something gets so big that it finally makes its way to me and by the time i hear of it it's already like falling apart okay i hope that show in one of the new iterations of yellowstone a kind of city dutton shows up and it's you from New York City. And you're like, wow. I came in from Boston. Wow. Wow. Well, north of Boston, it's Nashville, New Hampshire.

What's the actual news here, Tim? You should write a screenplay called 100 Miles North of Boston. A parody of Mitch's 7 Minutes South of Boston. Anyway, on a serious note, the reason I brought up Peaky Blinders was that that show is done, but

there is a new series greenlit being produced. A UK series for Netflix. For for net i thought you said for net oh i got me excited for netflix for netflix yeah for netflix is sort of an after dinner streamer um the the uh and this is exciting the taboos heads like us the guy who created peaky blinders his next series that he's making for netflix is about the guinness beer family and here's the blurb set in 19th century dublin and new york house of

guinness will focus on the consequences of the death of benjamin guinness the man responsible for the extraordinary success of the guinness brewery and the far-reaching impact of his cunning will on the fate of his four adult children arthur edward ann and ben as well as a group of dublin characters who work and interact with the growing juggernaut that is guinness damn it sounds good and folks get your subtitles on for this one i bet you it's another one it's gonna be tough to understand 18th century english wait what did you say 19th century uh 1800s yeah but they're like hardcore irish yeah it's funny irish people speaking english is sometimes harder to understand than just like a spanish person speaking spanish

you gotta get those subtitles i i gotta say uh that sounds exciting to me i like that kind of time period i like when there's uh sort of uh new new york city in a weird way yeah and it's i mean it's a succession right they're doing a succession thing but old-timey and irish and now what is this gonna be on showtime i won't watch netflix netflix all right for net for netflix for net Well, didn't Netflix split into a Quickster? Remember that? 10 years ago, Netflix emailed all of us being like, hey, Netflix is splitting up into two separate things. I don't remember.

There's going to be our online streaming service and we're going to mail the envelopes from like Quickster or something. And then everyone was like, don't do that. And then the next day they sent another email. Okay, sorry. Hey, we're not doing it. Sorry, Quickster. irish accent thing have you heard of these phrases that you say and it kind of like tricks you into saying something with an accent is it okay for example um the australian accent if americans want to find it say rise up lights rise up lights rise up say it's kind of normal not the how i say rise up lights rise up lights rise up now that's australian for

razor blades ah yeah there's some i i can't think of any of them there's some good rise of lights but like there's a bunch of like you know you could get other expressions and it's like yeah that's that's irish hey that's australian that's new zealand um i have a neighbor who's australian and i heard a funny interaction where um somebody was canvassing knocked on his door and uh was like hi i'm here i'm here. I'm raising awareness for neighborhood council, blah, blah, blah, plugging a politician. And it's Los Feliz. It was a Democrat. And my neighbor goes, it's a Democrat?

And the girl's like, yeah. And he's like, well, they're going to spend all the money? No. And he snipped her right out and he slammed the door. I said, welcome to Lowe's Feelers, buddy. I don't know if you're going to love it here. Shanks. They're going to spend all the money?

We've talked about this before maybe, but when we first moved to LA, we hung out with some people who had a friend that we didn't know. He came in and his name was Jarvis. And the whole night he's talking with him. My name is Jarvis. Where are you from, Tim? Oh, me? I'm from Olive Bridge.

Where are you from? I'm from South Carolina. We were like, what? And he was wearing a straw cowboy hat that dipped down far in the front. And it was like the most Aussie guy I've ever seen. I'm from South Carolina. i'm from south carolina oh lord damn rise of blights rise of blights well that's entertainment news and that's booze yeah i had a quick bit go ahead tim i was just gonna say that when this guinness show comes out

we should watch it and we should talk about it on our Patreon show The Sloppy Boys Blowout. And if listeners want to hear that, they got to subscribe. That's a good idea. That's actually one of those good ideas. My ideas all fucking suck. Well, folks, it's time for a recurring segment. Holy shit.

Koi boy. It's time for Dutton's Delights. Yes, that's right. It's time for Dutton's Delights. Yes, that's right. And, you know, there's been a lot of delights on the screen these days. You might see me talking about X-Men 97. It's bringing back the old X-Men show,

and they're treating it more like a Game of Thrones for the 40-year-old audience, like me, which I appreciate. But I'm not here to talk about that today. I went to the multiplex two nights ago. Film time. Oh, and did I ever see a film? Challengers. Folks, I saw the Challenger film. Mike, you're a tennis boy. I'm surprised you haven't seen it. I'm a tennis man. Have you seen it? I've not seen it. And what doesn't excite me about it, I am a tennis person. I I love. Tell me what you think, Jeff. Well, I liked it.

I thought it was I knew it was going to be like the horny tennis movie. And I thought it was by the guy who did it to Mama Tambien. But it's not. It's the guy who did Call Me By Your Name. It's the guy who did Call Me By Your Name. It's the guy who did Call Me By Your Name. It's the guy who did Call Me By Your Name. It's the guy who did Call Me By Your Name. It's the guy who did Call Me By Your Name.

It's the guy who did Call Me By Your Name. It's the guy who did Call Me By Your Name. It's the guy who did Call Me By Your Name. It's the guy who did Alfonso Caron, who did many great things. One of them did Harry Potter. That's crazy. You go from a real horny movie to doing a harry potter but the call me by your name guy is old and uh yeah luca it's funny that he dabbles

so much in these like horny teen films because uh he's probably horny himself that's that could be it it's possible i think you might be right um i will say it scared me because well we all know about my infamous fiasco at the boston museum of science roger clemens throwing a ball at the screen too many times did a tennis ball almost feel like it was going to hit me right in the head yeah they're winging that ball in this movie the tennis ball is flying like grazing the lens it's really great hey lady wow zendaya now i i haven't seen the movie but what if are there any moments when zendaya or the other lead character you know take down someone's white tennis shorts and a giant boner flops out and you're whoa watch out like you're not far off really this is not far off there is a great boner moment in this movie but it's not here i i

wanted to bring it up today it's part of the delights because i woke up in a stupor with um a little a little ditty in my head and i said i gotta lay this down wow was i was i hung over when i did it and sang it this morning yes crushingly hung over you laid down a trap. But I have just a little tiny presentation. That's cool. That's cool. In Challengers,

you can play tennis with Zendaya and see what you're made of. In the film challengers you'll see two guys eat a churro competing for her though you'll see it in challengers challengers challengers game set and match. Who's that at the end? That's from Mario Tennis.

That was Waluigi. Or just regular Luigi. It's just regular. Do you want better? It's regular Mario. Churro Herzo. That's like a Marshall Mathers rhyme. Thank you.

That's good. I like that. Yeah, you're not far off from Marshall Mathers, Jeff. Did you guys see the churro moment? It's a big meme. I've seen the meme of it. I've seen the meme, yeah. This modern era of horny films like Saltburn Bathtub, Call Me By Your Name, Peach, and now this churro.

It's like being a comedy writer. The way that you write set pieces and you're like, and now this churro. Wait, is the churro covered in material or something? No, no, no. It's not like a churro in an ass or anything like that. But it's, well, and maybe it's this boner moment you're talking about. It's this other scene where churro pops out of the tennis shorts. I haven't seen the film yet.

I just like, I feel like if my career as a comedy writer flags, I think I would enjoy writing like horny set pieces. Cause you'd be like, Oh, whatever. Like a boob goes up a butt and they're like, perfect. This is great.

Perfect. We need that one thing. Everyone's talking inventive. It'll start a new thing. Yeah. People, people all over the nation will stop eating ass and start putting boobs and butts all over the nation.

And what a nation it is. All right. So I'm wrapping up Dutton's delights is that it for booze news as well uh yeah can i ask why it was empire state of mind by jay-z and rihanna tim it came to me in a dream like i said oh was that song fresh in your head because i recently posted our manhattan song again probably probably good tune i like i do like when we when one of us brings in a mashup and we you kind of think of like why would where would this have come from why would this person like okay i mean i understand totally the just getting syllables

but uh right you know sometimes it's like oh i see jeff was just saw this movie and blah blah or tim just saw this thing or and that song, blah. Or Tim just saw this thing. And that song has like, the dreams are made of, so I had Zendaya. The dreams are made of, Zendaya. I'm still waiting for people to tell me if that movie is very, very, very good and I will go see it. Oh, yeah.

Didn't you hear my segment? Mm-hmm. I'm all full of water. Okay. Folks, the whole segment was to try to get you to see this horny movie. Support the arts. I'm plugging it. This is me telling you to go see it.

Support the farts. Go see Challenger. All right. That's it for Booze News. Wrap it up. Yeah. Interesting. Hey, you're listening to our podcast, are you?

We're getting mad bucks off you. I like Captain Solo where he is. What does he say? Jabba? Yeah, I like Captain Solo where he is. What does he say? Jabba? Yeah, I like Captain Solo right where he is. Anyway, I'd love to hear about the drink of the day. Okay, the drink of the day. The D, oh, the D for me and JD.

Mike, lay that down. I know, I'm sorry. I just, Jeff got me going. Oh, the D for me and JD. Damn. D with D, that can't be good. We got a J.D. and me. Go ahead, Tim. Jameson, peach schnapps, sweet and sour mix seven up. It's

the green tea shot you've had. No, but boy, you got right into it, didn't you? Yeah, I've never heard the ingredients right at the gate like that. I was I'm a disruptor. Okay. Okay.

We know the ingredients. Okay. So there's ingredients in this drink. Great. Um, I, I've not had, I've not had,

but boy, have we heard, right? Didn't you have, I've not, he has heard. Oh, I saw you.

I saw you with my own eyes. Wait a second. I think we intend when we were hanging out with Dear Blanca in Milwaukee. Yeah. Three. Let's get some deep green tea shots. But then we pivoted and their house special was like a blueberry shooter thing. Yes.

And it was like thick and ketchupy or whatever. Okay. Oh, now it's very possible that cam then bought me a green tea shot that i didn't remember because i was so drunk tim if you don't remember it and it didn't register it didn't happen yeah perfect that's does that work for all the crimes i committed that night i was joyriding too um that was quite late at night quite late at night i think i did do this this this was well you know what's cool about uh milwaukee is uh you can order pizza that late you can order pizza that late but we were like i can't believe the bars close at two i figured we're so close to chicago

bars will be open before but on they said ah it's saturday night bars are open till 2 30 i said that's nice a little extra half hour well also you know these these bars like that that's also pretty late 2 30 but they're all in like neighborhoods so they probably got to be quiet yeah they're the residential corner bars and stuff so yeah but now it's this is coming to me yes cam did buy me a shot and then yes i we did have the classic conversation which is you don't even taste the alcohol. And that's, I think this is, this is a popular drink for people who love to say that you don't even taste the alcohol. Good. Um, but you know, this is the one of the moment, but there's a, there's a, there's a, we know shooters like shots where the bartender has to shake it up. When we were coming up, there was lemon drop shots. There was kamikaze shots. There was blow job shots. So, um, I think

that, uh, also Mike, you mentioned a snackery recently, which is maybe a bigger, bigger than a shot, but it's like a tiny daiquiri. Oh, yeah. Oh, that's funny. Yeah. Yeah. Snackery. It was like, which now I think they call it like a bartender's handshake or something. It's like, yeah, I get my impression was the bartender's handshake was just a specific any type of drink, like kind of a nasty little drink.

Little nasty one well i have never really ordered shooters like this like like i mean sometimes we'll get a tequila shot chilled or something but yeah that's what i do i i rarely if i'm if i'm doing shots it's kind of just tequila but a year ago on booze news, we read an article from vine pair, um, about how green tea shots had gotten really popular with millennials. And this article was talking about how Gen Z was making fun of them for being choogy. Yeah.

Uh, that makes sense. We were making fun of them. Yeah. You were making fun of me. Two years ago, the idea of being choogy. Oh,

we hated being choogy. Now. No one even saysuggy. Oh, we hated being chuggy. Now, no one even says that word. Now I would kill to be chuggy. Take me back. I would kill to be chuggy again. Chugbaka. Chugbaka. I didn't chugbaka.

Live, laugh, love. That's funny. That's funny. That's pretty good. That's chugbca when he's underwater and any normal person would under water but i think that the what was happening here was like jimsy was saying you guys are choogy with your with your millennial green tea shots and then millennials were saying hey we're gonna shake it off shake it off we don't care what you say we're enjoying these shots and we're gonna keep ordering them um and then um i we were just

talking about how it was a phenomenon but none of us had had them or none of us like had really heard of it because we were like i haven't seen these out in the wild and then a lot of people said oh we're seeing them and then our aforementioned friend, Cam, the bass player from Dear Blanca, our friends, the band that we tour with. Cam owns a really good bar, an arcade bar. Yeah, the dream. Transmission in Columbia, South Carolina. Really great bar. And he said that not only do people order green tea shots there, but they order them.

They weren't like on the menu originally, but people were ordering them so much that he had to start like batching them and filling up a glass bottle with everything except for the Sprite and then just topping the shots with the Sprite. But but like so he was like, yes, this is very popular. And then I'm still seeing it pop up on TikToks and most importantly, Instagram reels. TikTok. But it's still very, very, very popular. So I said, Tim, where did this popular drink come from? This popular drink must have been invented by somebody who invented this popular drink. I've been fucking thinking about that, man.

This is great, man. This is great, man. Fucking great, man. Well, you guys have been my co-hosts on this pod for 180 something episodes. 187? 187. Oh, we were supposed to do the sublime episode. We did Dua Lipa. Oh, fuck. Damn. It's all right it's bad i knew i knew we had some fucking idea for this one greater opportunities have slipped through our fingers we'll be okay we should do

it but we i would love to talk about the new lineup of sublime and and uh and hey the long beach dub all-stars i've been seeing some little some clips of him, his Brad Nolan son, and he doesn't sound very good, right? He cannot play guitar at all. Okay, I only saw one clip, and I didn't know if this was like, we're slamming this guy or what we like about him. It's weird. Just the whole thing is weird. He sounds like him, though. We'll do an episode about it because it's worth it.

Anyway, this many episodes into this podcast we've learned a thing or two you guys who if you had to guess who invented this drink who do you think invented it de groff um dale de groff king of the cocktail no close damn shit it's like okay what's the what's the lamest ingredient it was like the marketing team for the lamest ingredient well when i tell you the ingredients deal there's only one ingredient that's name checked by brand schnott oh uh jameson irish whiskey get out of here this drink interesting they seem above that you don't think they can get be chewy but yeah but they're the biggest irish whiskey around their story they

don't need to be coming up with green tea especially when i was saying like oh we when we were coming up there was a lot of lemon drop shots and stuff like in that era i feel like jameson was extremely popular uh just as a shot as well so maybe they were looking maybe when they lost a little bit of steam they did it's so crazy popular but i think that they were like the king in 2008 and maybe they've lost a little bit of ground but uh they invented this drink and it took off it's hard to do that you know now when did they invent this drink um like recently i want to say like four it actually was ah okay i thought this was gonna be like something like a a fern bar drink and then it was just like oh yeah now we we were bringing it back i'm not finding a year but i i kind of

think that they invented it and it took off so i don't think it was kicking around for too long um this is with the peach stops there was one i think um yeah uh peach tree schnapps by DeKuyper invented the fuzzy navel. Yeah. And we know that Bowles' blue curacao was behind the blue Hawaii and all that stuff. Anyway, congratulations on Jameson

from getting a plug out of the Sloppy Boys podcast. We typically don't like corporate shit, but here we are bowing down to our corporate or words. We typically don't like corporate shit, but here we are bowing down to our corporate words. We're not worthy, man. What are the proportions there, T-Man? Coming at you from

liquor.com because it's not on the IBA list. We finished the fucker. I haven't even thought about the IBA in forever. I'm so happy. That whole portion of your life is behind you. Never look back. It's like that moment where you left your home, you left your apartment and you're like, oh, I don't have a mask. And then you're like, oh, but I don't need one anymore. I think it's like that moment at the end of Good Will Hunting when Will is driving out West.

He's not, he's on, onto brighter pastures. Coughing his head off. Yeah. Okay. So it's equal parts. This is what's great, is half ounce Irish whiskey, half ounce peach schnapps, half ounce sweet and sour mix. And Liquor.com says, sweet and sour mix combine one part lemon juice,

one part lime juice, two parts simple syrup, adjusting quantities to taste. They want you to make your own, but I'm sure a lot of bars pouring these shots are just using that. I made my own from scratch today. Whoa. They, they want you to make your own, but I'm sure a lot of bars pouring these shots are just using. I made my own from scratch today. Oh, nice. I had good lemon juice, like your, your organic, you know, no concentrate lemon juice had a bunch of fresh limes. I'm juicing them. And I'm like, I have simple syrup, but I found my bottle just very little. And I said, well, I'm at it. I'm going to make there some simple syrup. Hey, so I heat up some sugar and some water. I make that syrup

and I combined it all perfectly half lemon, half lime, and then with the equal part, simple syrup. So I'm rocking dude. That's, that's impressive. I had to flail a little bit cause I had a bottle of a store bought a zing zang oh but their sour mix is like i thought zing zang was bloody mary mix it is and they also have a sour mix and it's also why is it sweet and sour mix don't you guys just say sour mix and like we know it's gonna have sugar in it yeah anyway zing zang i love their their bloody mary but their their sour mix is kind of just sweet, not sour, and it tastes like lemonade. So I goosed it by squeezing

a lemon and a lime into it, and now it tastes like sour mix. Okay, so it was equal parts. Half ounce, half ounce, half ounce of those. And then lemon-lime soda, such as 7-Up or Sprite or Starry. Or some expired Sierra Mist mist from the vaults um steps labeled mist

add the whiskey schnapps and sweet and sour mix into a shaker with ice and shake to chill strain into a shot glass top with a small splash of lemon lime soda so this is a big shot like if it's already an ounce and a half and you're shaking on ice and you're topping up like this is a big mouthful shot if you have a two ounce shot glass that's what most shot glasses are an ounce and a half oh okay get a big boy is that when you go to like a shot and like sometimes you got obviously shot glasses but sometimes you get everyone just gets like a big glass with a shot's worth in it yeah that seems like that seems like a they didn't want us to make a mess type of thing.

I always wonder that too. Those, I like drinking a shot glasses more than those ones you're talking about. But, um, I think the reason for this to be a two ounce shot is just because you're diluting it. You know,

you've got sour mixing and seven up. Those are two non alcohol elements in this drink. Shake on ice. You're going to water it down. Exactly. Just the price you pay. This're going to water it down. Exactly, Jeff. This is going to be a good shot. I predict that my round two is just going to be this on ice.

Michael, much like last week of the Ferrari, a lot of people drink this on ice and it's the same rule. Double, just double the amounts here. Put it on ice and drink it. Sip it. Nice. Damn, I love it. Alright, well, round one, we're shooting,, on ice and drink it. Sip it. Nice. Damn.

I love it. All right. Well, round one, we're shooting, right? Yes. Shooting shots.

All right, folks, shoot your shot. Go get your wallet. Go get your checkbooks ready. Cause here come the ads. We need you to buy each and every product. And then,

and only then can you press play and resume the episode. And in that very moment. Bye folks. Bye. Well, we'll see you soon, I mean. More Sloppy Boys after this. What's up, bud?

Oh, geez, we're just saying bye to the folks. Bye, folks. Bye, folks. And we're back. Green tea shots in hand. Let's see them. Oh, I'm filled to the top here. Yeah, trying not to steal my laptop. Okay.

Mike, yours is electric green. Oh, that's the glass. That's just the glass, yeah. It's my Dave & Buster shot glass. Ooh, win-win. All right. Let's do it. So shots, right? We're like downing it. It's my Dave and Buster shot glass Ooh win win Alright So shots right You're allowed to sip it but I think it's a shot

Okay cool Bombs away Oh yeah Oh That just tastes like Senior frogs Yeah You know what I mean that just tastes like a senior frogs. Yeah. You know what I mean?

That is just like a, it's not very appetizing, but it's, you drink, it's like, yeah, I didn't really taste that. Ooh, there's the, there's the whiskey. But then there's a lot of the juice or the, uh, the jet juice, uh, seven, seven, 11, seven up. Jesus Christ. What? juice or the uh the jet juice uh 7-eleven 7-eleven seven up jesus christ let this guy talk he'll figure it out but just come on he'll get there eventually but he'll be pissed at himself now i'm choking on this shot so worked up over here are you yeah i mean the

jameson has disappeared into it i am i did taste the the peach schnapps and i like peach schnapps um yeah did i was remembering that one source said the reason it's called green tea shots is because of its uh similarity to arizona green tea specifically which is a sweet one are you guys getting that green tea or does it just taste like a peach schnapps shot yeah i guess i am i don't know i think really i'm yeah yeah you're right like a lot of the tea that we have quote unquote tea has like artificial lemon and peach flavor in it so you if you put lemon and peach together you're like halfway there to tea and then i guess like whiskey does have a little bit of like depthy darky got Got the same color. Same color at least.

You gotta admit. You're right. There's something about just Snapple peach tea is so popular that a fake peach flavor does sort of just make you think of teas as well. It tricks you. It's almost like the grape flavor. Like when I have regular tea, I'm like, oh, that's disgusting.

Give me some sweetened up sugary like raspberry or Arizona tea. I'm like, Oh, that's disgusting. Give me some sweetened up sugary, uh, like raspberry or as Arizona tea. Ooh. Ooh. This does make me feel like I just turned 21. Isn't it? It does. That's what I mean. Yeah. It's just like a, that's a specific time taste timestamp taste. Yeah. It's like, Hey, you're, you're new to a bar. You can get a, you can get a shot, but you don't like alcohol, but you know but you don't like alcohol. But you know you don't like alcohol. It's a funny, slow, gradual handoff between being a teenager where you taste something like, oh, you don't even taste the alcohol.

This is great. To then, we're still on the road in the middle because I'm not a guy who's just like, just give me my scotch and my cigar. I like cocktails so i do like there to be some sugar and citrus in my scotch and my cigar you can't say anything anymore my scotch and my cigar any more i'll get there mike you had a scotch era you know i it wasn't well it was a few weeks it was just kind of like that counts all day every day was a few weeks. It was just kind of like. That counts.

All day, every day for a few weeks. It was, it was like, you know, during the winter time, kind of in the colder months to have a little scotch on the rocks. That's nice. But it feels, it would feel very weird, I think, to drink that in the spring or summertime. Don't you think? Or in the day or something. or summertime don't you think or in the day or something our buddy randy uh when we were in college he drank doers which is some of the most like peaty band-aity yeah yeah did he hear about it in swingers because i think that's what john favreau orders doers oh maybe um but like yeah he had a big handle in the freezer it was just like oh my doers and god it was the worst like

oh my doers i still don't love scotch but but especially being like freshly 21 or whatever like yeah that was just putrid oh i know i can i guess even in like the malort we had like i'm getting used to malort shots uh yeah not that i love it and scotch too it's like and even beer when i you start drinking beer you're like oh this is kind of weird but you just get used to it i to say that that Malort spritzer was real good. Oh, I didn't have that. That was somebody, Slophead brought that for us. It's just like a can of like Malort spritz.

Yeah, I didn't have one just because I wasn't, didn't want to. No one's going to force you, Mike. I'm sorry. I just didn't want to. You don't have to do anything you don't want to do. I was going to force you, Mike. I'm sorry. I just didn't want to.

You don't have to do anything you don't want to do. I mean, not to make this whole fucking episode about our friend Cam Powell from Dear Blanca, but he also. I know. Geez, he's running things. We were talking to Chicago and then he's kind of invented the ultimate Chicago cocktail at his bar, which is it's a paper plane, which we've made on the show. Invented at Violet Hour in Chicago. But he swaps in, I think, made on the show, invented at Violet Hour in Chicago. But he swaps in, I think instead of the chartreuse or whatever, he swaps in some Malort and was bringing two Chicago things together. And he said it's kind of good.

He calls it the paper Boeing, and it's on the menu there now. That's funny. Paper Boeing. It's funny. Yes. Very, very good. let me ask you this jay before we started recording today's podcast you in a text said to us you've maybe never recorded an episode this hungover before um oh so here you are you seem pretty sharp in segment one now we're in segment two you just had a shot are you getting any hair of the dog effects? Do you feel good?

Is it human? You know what? I feel the sour mix and the Sprite coursing through my veins and just giving me that energy I want so damn bad. But not the schnapps or whiskey. Interesting. No, no, no. Jeff, what do you attribute the hangover to? Is there one thing that you're like, ooh, I shouldn't have done those,

that last glass of red wine? Margs. Just like marg after marg. Actually, you know what it probably is? Yeah. Salt. Going like marg, marg, michelada, marg, marg, michelada.

Yeah, right, right. Just drying you out, right? But then some people are like, oh, you're hungover, you need electrolytes. And you're like, what are electrolytes? And they're like, salt. And you're like, so what the fuck? It's the solution and the problem.

But I woke up this morning feeling like ET, all white. Did you phone home or some shit? What the fuck? Lying in a puddle where he's all dried out. Yeah, great ET. ET call extra decaf venti latte yeah yeah yeah phone uh uh for for breakfast burrito yeah how about this et foam latte yep how about that yeah that's pretty good that's you this morning jeff you got it when you just

admitted it you just admitted it to us uh i took I took a nap. I'm feeling right as rain, ready to record with my boys, catch up with some shit show. I've been on a little bit of a margarita kick myself. They're good. Because I had one, maybe, Tim, when we were in, hmm, maybe when we were in Las Vegas, I had one. And I was like, hey, you know what? I always think of margaritas, we talked about the daiquiri,

I always am like, oh, it's going to come out in this big glass, and I don't need all the fanfare. I just want a simple drink. But they're very simple. Yeah. The one that we did on the show, the IBA original straightforward one, it's great. That's what they did at the bar last night was lime juice,

triple sec, and tequila, period. None of that mix, none of that sugar. I had a couple of those the other night. I went to a Mexican restaurant, and I'm eating a lot of salty stuff a lot of mexican stuff and maybe when i got home i had some some chips and things or some some uh fiery hot some type of cheeto and my mouth the next morning was so dry and so like cut up from just like eating chips that was the thing that did it at the end of the night it was just whatever it was it was a salty thing and just like getting home and getting to morning it's like

i feel like i'm bleeding all over the place i saw a really funny meme on instagram and it was uh it was uh cut the top of your mouth starter pack and it was all the tweets that cut the top of your mouth um jeff i had a funny predicament uh yesterday at that bar i i go up to the bartender uh and i'm like uh hey and some of our friends can hear me doing this so it's i'm humiliated i go uh hey can i get uh 10 shots of tequila like blanco with uh lemons and then uh bartender goes casamigos and then our friends look at me and i go well we don't have to do casamigos that's 10 shots yeah i'm 10 shots that's a lot of casamigos yeah and then uh everybody laughed at me and then the

bartender goes uh i was like yeah just just like well and he's like well we don't really have that and i was like what do you mean he's like you don't know he's like we have we have a lot we don't go any like we don't really have any that are that much lower than casamigos and i was like okay the 10 shots of casamigos so kind of against my will but then so when i get outside to the table with the tray i go look who bought casamentionally, this was my choice. That's also... You gotta let it be known like this is not

well tequila. This tray did cost me a hundred dollars. You gotta at one point just be the guy like, look, don't make me say it. I want the cheapest thing you got, okay?

You're a fucking asshole. Give me the ten... Could you talk a little quieter for one thing? What are you trying to impress my friends here come on what kind of bar is did they like you you have cosamigos and nothing nothing cheaper than cosamigos we only have one option cluny's own and like you know when you're in earshot you don't want to be like well what do you have that's cheaper than you must have some espalone or something back there you son of a bitch it's not too easy to too hard to decode i want cheap the cheapest just give me the fucking

it's the price i have the issue i told my friends i just got a new porsche they think i got a lot of cash uh well round two is coming up. I can hear it. I can hear it coming over the horizon. Are you just going to make a slow sipper? I'm going to do something. I'm curious what just Sprite, peach, and whiskey tastes like. And not doing the sweet and sour mix.

I'm in it for the mix. That's interesting, Mike. Because I think I'm going to have my Sprite be the simple syrup-ness of it. Yeah. Just see if the lemon line from the Sprite can take me to the edge. Look, the sweetness there's sweetness in peach schnapps too. It's not like you're going to be lacking for sweetness. Michael, you make yourself equal parts peach schnapps and whiskey. You're having yourself a southern sipper. I mean, typically I would use bourbon and I put a little dash of

Peychaud's, but you're essentially... And then that's the... The southern sipper. What was in the southern sipper? Peach schnapps, bourbon, and a dash of Peychaud's. But you also got to think about your regrets on the porch. Right, and then you have to sit and you have to think about, you got to think about your regrets on the porch.

Right. And then you have to sit and you have to think about all your regrets. I'm not going to do that. You look out on the, you look out on the meadow and you see those, those graves, those graves, those graves.

Those are your handmade graves. Those are the things that you carved for your children. Why did you do it? You could have pulled back. Yeah. All right, folks, we're going to make these round two drinks

and when we come back more sloppy boys and we're back round two green tea shots look at that i put a big cube in there to class it up fancy i did the very same thing but i'm gonna sip mine slowly this time i went a little easier on the peach tree just a little less this this smells just peach uh peach whiskey and sprite smells like a an apple a green apple yeah honestly i had to top up with more sprite because of my bigger glass it's too sweetie slimy i'm gonna have to add a little more jameson slimy that's interesting that's not bad what i got going on oh yeah what's yours mike mine is just whiskey peach schnapps and a topped up with uh

seven up but it was a it was a a ounce of each that's not bad it's pretty good not bad i got the proportions right this time i left enough room for enough of a top up with sprite and i am getting the arizona green tea thing now sort of generically like sugar water but the peach is not dominating this time i don't think i really have even had the the arizona green tea you haven't lived yeah i know i haven't lived much i had some oh i just had i had a lemonade i haven't lived much i've lived but not as much as some people uh the the i had one the other day a Arizona iced tea, half lemonade. I said, why isn't this called an Arnold Palmer? Maybe they took Arnold Palmer may not have.

Because Arnold has his own line of those. With through Arizona though? Yeah, I think through Arizona. That's what I thought. So why? If I had him here right now, I would ask him so many questions. At least not with this one about the drink. Yeah.

I have a few follow-ups. I'd ask him about, like, how can I improve my golf game? He's like, you? No hope. You're a lost cause, dude. You guys ever play golf? Not enough hours in the day. Sure, golf.

Yeah, tons. You guys golf, guys? See, when I was watching this tennis movie, I was like, God, I wish I had a way in. I wish they were discussing, you were discussing a slice or a hook. Because you did play golf. I know the golf a little bit more than the tennis. Right. I played golf. I wish I played tennis. Tennis seems getting good because my, my best friends in high school were all, uh,

like caddies and they all worked at a, um, country club and their valets and caterers and stuff like that. So we could play free golf at this fancy golf club. I played, there's summers where I played like nine holes a day. Never got any better. It's funny.

I'll play golf like once or twice a year and I enjoy it somewhat and then I'm like, well, this is just kind of, I'm never going to get really good, not really good, good at all at this. Mike, you can play it late into your life though. That's the appeal of golf is that. Right, right. It's a sport

you can play forever. Yeah. You play until you die. That's true. Wow. I would like to go to a driving range though that'd be a good blowout that'd be a good blowout boom that would be a good blowout and it'll be fun to go do uh top golf oh yeah what's that it's like a big yeah it's like a top golf is a i'm gonna to compare it to and I may be wrong. You know, those like huge bass pro shops. Where you can try all this stuff, it's like that, but golf and you can test all the stuff and it's like a hangout with restaurants and pro shops. It's more of a thing.

I was trying to say the place that you and I went to in Koreatown, Mike, we're up on a roof whacking it. Oh, yeah, that was that was cool. Yeah, I've done that. That's great. Because you can almost see where you parked your car. If you park on the roof of the structure, you can be like, I'm going to hit my car.

The T-Bird? Look at me. I'm going to hit my car. Look at me. As we continue to sip, submit to me your final thoughts, Mike. My final thought is

order again, but only in shot form. Hmm. Tim, your rebuttal. Look, I like it. It tastes good. Order again is tricky. I mean, before this pod, I said, guys, you know what would be great is if people in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia bring us when they're bringing us shots on stage.

Maybe they'll bring us these and we won't get too drunk because they're watered down shots a little bit. Maybe they'll bring us these and we won't get too drunk because they're watered down shots a little bit. But now I'm thinking that'll piss the bartenders off if we're a band and everyone is coming up to them asking for do all this work for some shots. But it is good. I do like it. If I were at a bar and some chugs come up to me and say, you want in? I'll say, yeah, but I don't know that I'm going to lead the charge myself. But yeah, you want in? Well, say yeah, but I don't know that I'm going to lead the charge myself, but yeah. You want in?

Well, I am choogy. Even on stage, the first one would be refreshing, and I'd be like, oh, thank God it's not. This is a refreshing, yeah, I agree. It's not like full strength tequila. And then if a second one came up, I'd say, huh, okay. Third green tea shot comes up, I'm like, get that

shit away from me this stuff is gross no so i could do order again but only only order two yeah two max yeah yeah i get you on that this this is turning out to be better than the first sip this um drink i made yeah i think you made the you made a classier drink i think yeah i I think maybe you just need to melt a little bit. The flavor is smoothing out. Yeah. Mine's a lot better just adding more Jameson, too.
