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. Double chocolate chunky cookie. No, no, no. Yes. Tim Kupakas. What is up? Boom. Boom. No, no, no. Yes, in Copacus. What is up? Boom.

Boom. No. OK, OK. We all know the boom guys. It's been they've been around forever. The Costco guys. What a what a what a thing that is coming to my phone. You're a little late to the game. Well, you gave it the mistake of giving that initial bit of attention.

I gave it a few clicks. I got interested a week in what the Costco guys were. And then now I've got the Rizzlers showing up. I've got AJ and Mr. Boom. And then the whole family shows up now. It's like, I'm Jessica and I'm going to get this thing at Costco for my curly hair. And it's just the family getting shit at Costco.

I don't know what it is. I don't know why we do it as a society. The Rizzler can stay, of course. It does make me sad looking at that type of entertainment that is caught between ironic and sincere. And it doesn't matter anymore. If they're getting the fame, they're getting the fame. But who's the dad?

Not big justice. AJ. He's AJ. AJ has the vibe of a guy who will kill himself long ago. Yikes. Because the other- This much is certain. Yikes.

The other people have options or whatever, but you just see these dance. It's, they change up the dance every once in a while, but then they'll cut to them doing the dance and you could just see like a vein bulging out of his forehead. Like he wants to do the dance, right? And it's like, he, he doesn't fully understand that this doesn't have legs. Like he, he's, he's gonna, he's gonna flame out spectacularly. You think?

I mean, I will just say, like, I hope the man lives. I like all of, I want life to continue. I like, I mean, I love all God's foods. I like some of God's creatures. Oh, you're not a dog person or a cat person. I would, I say- Hold on, I got a dog rant. Say what you're gonna say and I'm gonna go off.

I'm just gonna say, I don't have ill will towards the Costco guys. I just a dog rant. Say what you're going to say. And I'm just going to say I don't I don't have ill will towards the Costco guys. I just find it so interesting. And like these come along, they come and go. But how little it takes. Yeah. Like I saw them a clip of them like at a Miami Dolphins game or something. They're like, we're the Costco dudes. Boo. Or like we're here with the.

It's just like they're on the sidelines. They got tickets. I don't know what's going on. If AJ is alive on New Year's Day 2030, oh God. I'm gonna take both of you out to dinner. No, I'm gonna take you up on a SpaceX, it's probably really more affordable than a SpaceX rocket.

Geez. That's my bet. Wow. I hope to not win that bet. I hope to lose spectacularly. He does have a soulless look, that man. Yeah. He's got an eyeliner thing. He seems like quaffed within an inch of his life for a 50 year old man. I hope he's, I hope he's taking that money and putting in uh, within an inch of his life for a 50 year old man.

I hope he's taking that money and putting in the bank and putting up a nice college fund up for CJ or big arms, whatever these guys are. You can tell they're going to start boom coin and just be fucking rich for the rest of their lives. Just watch. Maybe. People that get famous, it's a blessing to become a full adult before you get famous. And you know, like, cause if you get famous in your 20s, you can, it can fuck you up.

But like lots of times actors who make it in their like late 30s, early 40s remain well adjusted and have the best life. But he has the guy, he has the vibe of like, I always knew I was special. Like, I always knew I deserved more. But he has the vibe of like, I always knew I was special. Like I always knew I deserved more. And now I'm, look at me now, I got eyeliner on my eyes.

Something's gonna happen. Okay, so real quick, here's my dog saying, I should, people on the podcast, they don't like when I complain about dogs. I don't dislike dogs. America's most beloved creature? America's most beloved creature. America's most beloved creature. I love it. I, do what you want to do with your dogs.

My problem is with the dog owners in a city who are getting a little obnoxious with their dogs. Here's, here's one I just saw. Hillhurst Avenue. Beautiful. Los Feliz, California. Of course. Of course. This is, this is the main set for Tim Calpagas story. It's the main drag. Picture this, I've already complained to you guys about the retractable leash where you hit the button. I've been like, I'm going for a jog

and then a dog tries to come up and lick me and then some guy hits the button so the dog can come and lick me. And I'm like, what? You hit the button? Anyway. Oh, he lets it out more. He assumes too much.

He lets it out more. And I'm like, dude, you got the dog, so you'd be cute on Tinder, good for you. It's not, you don't, it doesn't have to be between my legs when I'm doing my fitness routine. But here's the new thing. Some people just like dogs, though. But that's neither here nor there.

That's very true, but go ahead. Do you think that men in Los Feliz, with a single man who lives in a bar with a dog, do you honestly think he just only loves that dog? No, I don't think so. Even you admit. What kind of dog, especially if it's like,

is it like a purebred, like a real breed, like a dog dog or a thing that you just don't know what it is? Like a little photograph. Don't dog draw distinctions like those. That's a big distinction for me. Is it pure enough? No, I don't know what it is. Like a little photograph. Don't draw distinctions like those. That's a big distinction for me. Is it pure enough? No, I don't mean pure.

I mean like a little dog that I don't know what the brand is. The breed. Is it a golden retriever? I know it. No, I don't actually, I don't know. Big dogs are kind of funny. I mean when they're like little dogs

that it's supposed to be like, oh, he's so sweet that he has that small dog. Anyway, listeners, I know you love dogs and I know that I'm the weird one, but just go with me on this. Let me paint a picture. I'm walking uphill, this lady is walking down. She's got a dog, very excited dog.

She's passing in front of all time, a very brunchy hip spot. Is there a bar in there, Tim? I walked by there. No, it's a coffee shop vibe inside and then more restauranty hip spot. Is there a bar in there, Tim? I walked by there. No, it's a coffee shop vibe inside and then more restauranty at night. Do they have a counter at least? Yeah, there's a coffee shop counter you can sit at,

but there's no hard liquor. It's just wine. Okay. Maybe some Angostura bitters or something. No, no, no. I can take a couple of bitters. No, the answer's no. You guys know that vibe.

Because it's a little cottage, it has basically fence, like country fencing, out to the street. And then it opens where there's a door in that takes you straight into the restaurant. Yeah, it's California backyard cuisine, Mike. That's what they call it. I'm here for it. I like that place.

Don't like the prices, but I like the place. There's a hostess standing at a hostess stand like when you go like in that door, but it's kind of outdoor, like covered. Anyway, this lady's walking with her dog. The dog says, oh, restaurant. Yeah. You know, I'm gonna charge her the food.

That's where the food is. What wouldn't, what dog wouldn't what dog wouldn't write free food basically She hits the button. Oh She doesn't go in She's not she lets the dog go in the dog goes like nine feet into a restaurant and she pauses for a second looking at Her phone like the way you would let your dog piss. Yeah. Yeah, but it was go into a restaurant Tim are we misunderstanding the button does the button? you would let your dog piss. But it was go into a restaurant. Tim, are we misunderstanding the button?

Does the button stop the dog or does the button let the dog go for it? I wish the button yanked hard on the dog's neck. It should be like a fishing line. The button releases, the button. The dog, and I just, I had no dog in this fight because I wasn't even eating there. But I looked, I paused and I went,

don't Jeff, don't do that. I saw the dog in the restaurant and I was like, if I were one of those diners, there's, you know, I've had to sit around lots of brunches with dogs all over me, but at least the owners are eating. This lady was checking her fucking texts out in the street and that dog was in the restroom. We just need a couple more people, a couple more,

to let out a, whose fucking dog is this? You know what I mean? Like, it doesn't need to be all the time, but like that needs to be out there in the world sometimes. A little bit of a reaction, a little bit of a pushback. Yeah, give somebody, it's gotta happen every so often, so people go, oh. Just be aware for them to know

that that can happen on Earth. Yeah. I did it, at Millie's I was sitting next to a guy whose dog started licking him and I said, no. He goes, there you go. Yeah. He's like, daddy's home because this guy's not fucking, you know, gonna discipline you.

This guy ain't doing jack shit. Yeah, let's walk all over him. Something that is sort of in the same vein is, you know, we were doing some plane travel recently and I plan to do more plane travel in the future. But when you get up, you know the whole thing, you get up and just wait around for the plane to exit out. I get that, it takes forever.

But don't you, wouldn't it be helpful if somebody, maybe it's me next time, just stands up and goes, hurry the fuck up, do this faster everybody, just do it fast, why are people like, where's my stuff, where is it? Just pull it down and walk away. I'm with you so much there because it's like, there's a couple things wrong.

Some people are slow with that, where it didn't, until it's their, there's a couple things wrong. Some people are slow with that, where it didn't, until it's their row's opportunity to leave, they haven't looked for their bags and haven't considered deplaning. I've seen people sleep through a landing, which I'm like, what? But you have the other people. If someone has a quick layover or a changeover or something,

like I let them go, but I also hate when the people in the row behind me, there's like a pushy guy who's gonna try to leave, go down the aisle before me. I ain't letting that happen. I'm parking my body in front of him. You're not cutting unless you say, oh, I have to get to my next flight.

And then I say right this way. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes, of course. Oh, I almost clocked some lady with my bag the other day. I was trying to pull it out one hand and I was holding something else and it came, it dropped out faster than I thought. And this lady was much shorter than me. And I was like to pull it out one hand and I was holding something else and it came it dropped out faster than I thought This lady was much shorter than me and I was like whoa and kind of drop whatever I had

I just like dropped my hat or whatever was nothing important and if I was like geez that would have because it was landing too I was like getting off the plane obviously, but I was like boy. I am so glad I didn't Injure this woman and like have to stay around for another whatever, however many minutes to like figure it out. Yeah. It's like when I was a kid, I didn't understand why it took so long when the light turns green in traffic, simple traffic, car traffic. Yeah.

When the light turns green, shouldn't we all just slowly depress the gas and all start moving at the same time? Like. Right, right, right, right. Not one at a time. Of course, those are motor vehicles. But you'd think with a plane that would apply a little bit more like, yes, we all stopped.

We're all getting up. How much could you possibly have spread out in those four hours? Grab your bag, your coat, and get ready to go. Or and also just like walk as fast as you can. Get the fuck out of everyone's way. Just move. I just hate when people just don't move. If when you're old and like it takes you a minute, that's fine, too.

I get that. But I I'm seeing able bodied people taking their sweet time. Yeah, I don't like it. Here's what I do. I'm putting my overhead like my backpack like 10 rows ahead of me. You know, just the first time I see an open slot, I throw it and then I keep walking back to my seat. So then I'm hands-free walking up to the aisle. Then when I get to my bed,

whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. That's really good. You just lasso it down, nice. Actually, one time I tried to put my overhead in first class and the ladies were not allowed to do it. What the fuck are you doing? These people paid $5,000 to not see your jam sports.

What are they going to be in the lockers the whole time, lady? Just put it up there. Did you guys globetrot this weekend? I went to Austin, Texas. Jeff, you were somewhere. Well, yeah, we've got a lot of stories here. I went to out of wild. Yeah. How was that, Jeff? And Tim, my lord, we've got.

It was great, man. I was so charmed. Yeah. Yeah. Also kind of gave me New Hampshire vibes. Everybody was like, oh, the forest, oh, the rocks. I was like, it's kind of like New Hampshire. This is an old school. This is old hat to an old Hampshire guy like me. And instead of liking it and having the style that you're like, I've seen.

Yeah, I was sort of strutting around looking down my nose all weekend. I saw 18 years of this shit. Give me landscape I I've seen this. Yeah, I was sort of strutting around looking down my nose all weekend. I saw 18 years of this shit. Give me landscape I haven't seen ever, even on the Star Wars galaxies. Naboo. Oh, well, I guess Endor would be the closest. Yes, it would be actually. Yes, yes. And they have a they have their own cryptid up there. The ID beast, IDY ID beast. A cryptid, what's The ID beast, IDY, ID beast. A cryptid?

What's that? Oh, like the Loch Ness? Like a Sasquatchy thing. Oh, oh, oh. Like a Loch Ness, like a Chupacabra. I've never heard that word before. And what did you call it, Jeff? The ID beast is their cryptid.

The ID beast, I wanna see what. ID. Like IDY. IDY, like IDY. But a lot of people were like, oh, it's expensive up there. And like it is for some stuff. But when you're from Los Feliz or like Los Angeles, it's not.

And I was loved the food, cocktails were great. I saw that they had a lot of like wintery stuff, but then also very hip drinks like the paper plane are up there You know, it's hey paper plane is Pervasive I'm seeing it everywhere. It really is We should have someone were in Chicago because it's invented a violent hour but paper plane has been I would say upgraded to like

kind of baller status Bart but baller I would say bartender favorite But then also you can all like you can almost expect it to be at a cocktail bar if it's a cocktail bar. Okay, the idol beast. I'm seeing a lot of people who look like Chewbacca here. Yeah, there's not really But it's like people in Fourth of July parades in Idlewild, but just dresses Chewbacca. I can't find a real good rendering. Oh yeah. Okay. The Idle beast. Yeah. Idle beast. Yeah. All right. Sorry. Jeff, did you drink old fashions? I bet you were in a whiskey mood being up there in the forest.

I had the stuff for old fashions, but I'll tell you what, I made a lot more whiskey sours. Yay. Okay. Now, Jeff, where did you stay? Cabin. Ooh, that's nice. Cabin in the woods. A-frame log. Log.

The kind where you get up, you go to the bathroom and the bathroom feels like you're walking outside. Yeah, yeah. You're like shivering. I'm just hoping to get back as quick. I'm seeing my dick shrink in real time. Who the heck is that walking to the bathroom? You wake up with a giant boner and then you watch it go down.

Beep, beep, beep, beep. Ugh, cock bugger. Sometimes I'm in the bathroom, I take a shit and it stinks and I sort of shrink a little bit and decide to walk out. I wish that wasn't as bad as it was. Tim, where'd you go? You did a little globetrotting. Yeah, I went to Austin, Texas because we did the,

oh, we went to Lockhart. This is like a barbecue mecca. The trip you do, you go to a teeny little town, about like half an hour outside of Austin, and it's a little one-horse Texas town. It's teeny tight. It's like Horton hears here's a who, Mike. Ooh, it all takes place in a piece of pollen.

Four of the best barbecue places in the country are like the only restaurants in this tiny little one horse town. So you walk from place to place. It'd be very good bachelor party weekend. I recommend that to any Slobber or bachelorette. These days the girls are getting in the mix. These days the women are eating the barbecue.

Okay, so we did a barbecue day, but then we also did a comedy day where I went in the belly of the beast. Mothership, comedy, mothership, Tim. You did. Tim and Hinchcliffe. Oh, Tim mixing up Rogan. Who'd you see?

What was it like? Well, actually it worked out great. I knew I was going to, I wanted to see some comedy there more as a observer. Yeah. Didn't really expect to laugh, but because I'm a Hollywood big shot, the weekend I happened to be in town,

the headliner all weekend at the comedy mothership, Rogan's big club was my friend, Kyle Dunigan. So I got the fuck it. I was like, Hey, can we get on the list? And it was I got the fucking, I was like, hey, can we get on the list? And it was like beyond the list. It was like VIP treatment. Like we got like a balcony, a private,

we got like escorted up to a section. And Kyle is fucking great. He crushed for an hour and he was so funny. But he, I think is in New York. I want to see him do some stand up. Yes, he's in New York now, but he rules. But I went to some other places and saw some other comedians, and it's just very interesting to be in like a boom town.

Like there's a lot of stand up going on. Yeah. Interesting. A lot of mediocre stand up because and like Manasphere, you know, lone wolf aggro stand ups. Right. Yes. And let me tell you this. No, I'm not a whole lot of clown going on in Austin. Not a lot of Parisian Elysian clown, but here was my one real, I took it all in. I've got a big sponge like brain.

Watch a lot of, I'm not judging. I don't have to laugh. I'm taking it all in. This is, you got a sponge like head too. This is art. I got a sponge like sponge. If you go in my shower. I noticed this. I was like, what's a 20 tour 24 set for Austin comic? Almost everyone I saw, because you know, like, these are kind of like bro-y standups and

even the ladies have kind of like a tough edge to them and where they're kind of talking about like, you have to talk about 2024. So like, they're talking about sexuality and they're talking about they're kind of talking about, like you have to talk about 2024. So like they're talking about sexuality and they're talking about, they're not, I didn't really see any major grumps being like coming down on it, but, but the joke, everybody had it. Everyone was straight, but everyone had at least one joke about like, like a street guy being like, yeah, that guy,

I'd fuck that guy. Or, you know, like being like, isn't it so funny that I might say a gay thing? Right, right, right. I we were watching this thing and like, like this lady was so sex or like, this guy was so hot, my husband had a boner or like I was or like a lady saying like, I watched lesbian porn and like everyone who's so titillated to be talking about gay stuff and to be like, I'm straight, but even I was. Yeah, and it's like that specific subgenre

of a straight guy flirting with saying a gay thing. Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I open-minded for making this joke. But also, in the back of my brain, I kind of think it's weird to be gay. Where's it coming from type thing? Also, it's a punchline to me.

Right. But what was weird is that I noticed that, and then I was like, the first comedy club I ever went to in my life was- Oh, did you see Mike Verbiglia or something? Yes. Mike Verbiglia headlining bananas in Poughkeepsie in the 90s, and he did his iconic joke,

which you guys would know, which is, I'm not gay, but if my girlfriend hooked up with Tom Cruise, I'd be like, details. In like 1999, I lost my fucking shit. And that is a funny joke. But I was like, oh, we're 30 years later, and like kind of everyone has just rewritten that joke a little bit. Interesting, yeah.

Wait, I was going to ask, did you go to other places or just mothership? I went to Red Band's club. What? Oh, he has a club? Not Red Bar, Red Band. Red. I went to Red Band's club. Oh, he has a club? Not Red Bar, Red Band. Red Bar. Red Band, what's Red Band? No, Red Bar is a Chicago YouTuber.

Red Band is like a Rogan Hinchcliffe type guy who was like in the Kill Tony scene. Oh, I don't know that. But you know, it's hard for me to be in a town like that everyone invited me up on stage. Tim, you're a comedy guy. Tim, do book guy, come on. Was it huge?

Was that the, come on, do book guy. Do Wallace Hamptons. Was the place, like Mothership, a big, huge place? Beautiful theater. When I think of Mothership, I just think of like, it's giant, like too big for comedy. It's not named like, as in that it's like a, it is a spaceship, but it is, it's like an art,

it's a beautiful, it was like the Ritz Theater and it's been converted and it has some sort of art deco style and it's gorgeous. And like the font is a Star Wars font. Like I think they just being mothership, like we're the main one and everything feeds back to us. But I did, I went to, people told me to go to Home Slice Pizza

and that was great and I went there and a cook was a fan and gave us a free tiramisu. Ooh. Is tiramisu, I just had this thought. I have to apologize, I forgot the tiramisu Oreos that I meant to bring to Thanksgiving. Oh, you think that I didn't remember that and say it in Mookie? Wait, Jeff didn't bring his fucking Oreos.

What the fuck? Oh. Is tiramisu or is it souffle that you have to at a restaurant order like a half an hour ahead? Souffle. And it's like it drops or something. If it don't do right, it gets fucked up. Yeah.

All right, for a different episode, we do souffle. Oh, I've never attempted. That would be funny for us to try. I would love that. It's like egg, right? It's because it's like a rising egg thing or is it dough? Yeah. That'd be fun.

Ooh, the egg has risen. I'm never bold enough. They're like, you know, you've like eaten your salads and they don't bring out the entrees yet, but like, just so I want to let you know, we have a Grand Marnier souffle and a double chocolate souffle. And if you want those, we have to put it in that one. I'm like, not me.

Jesus Christ. I'm gonna have a DJ Steve and probably the weirdest dessert you have. Got anything weird? All of the sardine cupcake, if that's still available. Tim, so like no sketch or improv or anything going on there. It's just like straight up stand up, huh? No, I went to a show that was, well, I don't, I don't want to be a naysayer and I don't

want to talk shit. I support the arts, right? Sure. Yeah, I know. I will. I should say too, like I don't, uh, I've never been to the mothership. Like my, my whole, all of our vibes is just like, that is bad comedy, but I've never been there.

I don't know it. I just like a different scene. What's entirely like it's so funny. We spent 20 years in LA comedy and like we've gone to the laugh factory and the improv like I don't know, five times. Yeah, barely ever there. But the reason we don't go is because it's not the comedy that speaks to us. Sure. And I went to the mothership in good faith to be like, this is not my scene. But I mean, I wasn't going to be like, oh.

Yeah, yeah. You want to see what, just check it out. It's just exciting. I mean. It's like watching bad TV. Like you're bound to laugh a little bit. Like if you never laugh in two hours, something's like seriously wrong.

But also if you were like, if you were like a car maker at Ford and you were like, I'm not even going to look at what GM is doing. Yeah. You got to see what's happening. But literally like I'm a comedy writer. It behooves me for the industry to do well. Like I'm rooting anyone doing comedy. is doing. Because I like I hate that fucker, but I'm happy as podcast. This is probably I want there to be comedy because it's comedy. Yeah. Yeah.

So Jeff, you you taught me a phrase many years ago. Phrase the phrase high tide raises all shit. There you go. Oh, that came from me. Yeah. Yeah. I coined that one. That old chest. I said this guy is I said Tim, this guy's working on another level.

You like he's on the he's on the cusp of something really big here. Oh man. We had a sphere joke, Michael, was it? Oh no, it was when we were driving to the airport and we saw a giant cone being constructed. Yeah. We're like, this is the new sphere, a cone? It's like, you've witnessed the sphere,

now witness the cone. Like it's a. The images on the inside are all we were saying. Everyone's got tiny heads and big legs because it's angled down. Or you have to like look straight up in the air. This sucks. That was a fun little ride, Jeff. Yeah, it was a fun ride. All right. Can we get into some fucking booze news? Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby booze. Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip Bip and his jeans were too tight so I couldn't hear music. My favorite thing is skinny jeans and my favorite thing is slim dough burrini's.

I like smart phones and narrow denim legged clothes. Here's a secret, how can I decide? My thin blue pants are not white! Come on! I'll take all of that you got. What do you think? Fantastic. Love this band. Now, sing it, dude. Okay, that thing was sent to us by Alex B. And if you have a booze news theme, email it

to sloppyboyspodcast.gmail.com. I fully do not remember you singing that song. I think that was AI. Nope. I think we have AI for the first time ever on the pod. This was good old fashioned detective work. So first, that was me recently talking shit about how Jack Antonoff used to wear jeans

that were too skinny. That I remember. And then my voice was from my old song that I put out on Twitter called hipster rap. Oh yes. And I wrapped it in skinny jeans. So kind of I'm, I'm cotton 4k red handed talking shit on skinny jeans and then being held accountable saying, Tim, you, once you, you said that you,

maybe you can't say anything anymore as a public figure. Wait a minute, Tim. Is hipster rap a compendium piece to Santa rap? Or president rap? Yeah, was president rap in the same, it's a trilogy. Yeah, I think there was Santa rap first on president rap, then hipster rap didn't. Much like the Godfather trilogy.

Yeah. Sort of fell off flop era. It's like you blew your load with hipster, with Santa rap, or president rap, whatever the second one was. Yeah. And then it's. It's like you blew your load with hipster with a Santa president rap, whatever the second one was. Yeah. And then it's just down to, yeah, that's tough. Okay. But I chose that booze news theme for a reason today.

Cause I'm being held held accountable. I'm being taken to task and I encourage our listeners to do that, you know, cause I'm a public figure. And that's so appropriate for me because Scandal Rocks the Pod. I just sent you a link, guys. Michael Hanford, you have invented the Russian. I know I saw this vodka and root beer at a Kentucky Derby party for only a drive in Los Angeles in 2012.

But. Oh my God. What about the Charlie Birch cocktail? You seeing this? Yes. Oof. This is it, man. This article I just sent you came to us from

Astro Tony on the Sloppy Boys Discord shared this and it's a Smirnoff ad from 1975 advertising a cocktail called the Charlie birch and it's vodka and Root beer you right. Well, the only catch is this one can go Anywhere anywhere and ice is apparently not an option. That's the difference. This can go on the ground Oh, it doesn't say do not put on ground. No, it says Smirnoff into a tall glass of ice.

There's no. Oh right, and you have the ice option. There's no language in there that lets me feel like there's an option that's going in. And anyone who's ever ordered a Russian root knows you go up to the barge and you say, hi, can I have a Russian root? I will take the ice option.

It's really busy and the guy's like, what do you need, dude? Russian root? I will take the ice option. It's really busy. And he goes, what do you need, dude? Russian root. Oh, cool. Ice option. I'll take the ice option. What about the option? And I'll take the ice option.

It's the drink called the ice. What are you talking about, dude? I'll even say, hey, if you look at the glass mugs they're holding in this ad, they're the very dimpled big glass mugs that we had around Fredonia. Now there's no way there's no way I would have had a copy of this 1975 publication. Jeff you're right those are the mugs we got from the 99 cent store that we used for Oktoberfest. Oh yeah. Oh yeah they're like the the one she's got it. Oh I have those in my kitchen. The one in the

picture exactly those. You still have somebody still has kitchen. Yeah, the one in the picture, exactly those. You still have, somebody still has them. Yeah, I still have them. I love this, the paragraph that goes along with his ad. There's so much stuff going on there. Go ahead and read it, it's good for the pod. A friend of ours recently found himself with some unexpected guests,

a bottle of Smirnoff and a supply of root beer. Neither he nor anyone present had mixed Smirnoff and root beer before, but the occasion called for a drink. The hour was late and the only place open was a good distance away. They voted to make, what is this story? They voted to make do with what they had.

Our friend thought the result, our friend thought the result so surprisingly good that he suggested we try it. We agreed and we... So many steps. So much shoe leather. And we passed the simple formula, named after its inventor.

In so doing, we have no wish to convert anyone from plain old root beer when that's what the occasion calls for. Everything in its place, we always say. What? To make the Charlie Birch, pour one and a half ounces of Smirnoff into a tall glass of ice filled root beer. Worst copywriting, that was so fucking,

such a long walk to say, we invented this, somebody invented this. And like, at the end, say like, we don't try to get you away from old fashioned root beer. That's so weird. Yeah. That's almost like last episode, Jeff, when you were like Coke doesn't mention Pepsi in its ads.

No need. It's funny, it came about through the same way though. It's like, hey, you got surprise company, you got nothing to mix. This guy only had these two things. Here we go. Here we go. Because no one would choose to mix these two things

if they have a well-stocked kitchen. If only, yeah, it was exactly right with me too. It was necessity, invention was born out of necessity. In the comment, I clicked you another article and there's very funny comments being like, I knew Charlie Burch, he's passed away now. Another guy being like, that was my, Charlie Burch was my grandfather, I'm Kevin Burch.

And so, I seem like a real guy. Wow. I guess, Mike, it's just, here's what's troubling. I know you're trying to broil up, boil up some controversy here. Go ahead. The beloved hand slammer that me and Jeff gave it up for a boy that he invented a great drink.

Yeah. Then we hear about, what was this pink? We don't even remember. And also there was something wildly different with it, but we can't even remember. Pink daiquiri it was called or something like that. But that was enough different. Was it?

That was enough different. It did have a grapefruit in our jar. And I have proven myself time and time again on this show to not know much about cocktails, not to have some secret cache of recipes somewhere. Now, was that a long con where I've tricked you for four years into thinking I'm just some doofus, and meanwhile I'm getting old recipes from the 70s?

He's a little mastermind, a little Kaiser Soze. I don't think so. I don't think I have that in me, but I appreciate the thought. It would be a very cool long con. Come on, the show every week. Not, when we started this, we didn't exactly know what it was going to be, but still be like, cool long con come on the show every week. Not when we started this, we didn't exactly know what it was going to be, but still be like, I'm going to play it dumb in one day and one day.

Ha ha. Smart after all. Oh, yeah. A squared plus B squared equals C squared. Oh, my God. He never said that before. He said it wrong earlier. Is that a for booze news? Wrap it up. I was watching a video today that we played on a podcast earlier of a monkey riding a motorcycle down the street, jumps off the motorcycle

and tries to steal a baby. Yeah. So that one. Oh, thank you. And well, it's 20, 25, is it not? Yeah. Feels like the future in a way. It kind of is the future. Plank. Wait, hold on. So let me just look at my car. All right. My window. Flying car.

Rosie. That's Mr. Spacely yelling at his employees. Rowan. Yes. Well, well, it all does. The day will eventually come for all of us when our boss comes over and starts yelling at our robot. OK, look, it might be the future, but we're gazing back into the past for the drink of the day.

Ooh, Churchill's breakfast. You've heard no. Ooh. Churchill's breakfast. You've heard? No. Tim? Only from you. So no, no, no. So you certainly not had. Well, no, you know, it's fine.

This whole time I was picturing Hemingway when we said this, but it's Churchill. This is a different guy. But I was picturing. I know, but I was just picturing one of those old drinkers. You know what I mean? Well, he's that. Yeah, Jeff, listen to what was just picturing one of those old drinkers. You know what I mean? Mm-hmm. Well, he's that. Yeah, Jeff, listen to what Mike was picturing.

Look, that's what's important here. It's important for me to stop down the podcast. We're already wildly over time and I have to slow down for this shit. Yeah, yeah. Well, hey, look, I was looking for more wintry nippy drinks, you know? Yes.

And I came across this one that it's not, it's internetty, but people seem to really like it. They say it's really balanced and we value balance on the pod, do we not? We balance, but we, yeah, balance on the pod and in life. And in life. In our lives. We maintain a good work-life balance

between our lives and the LLC. And we also appreciate it in the drink. our lives in the LLC and we also appreciate it in the drink. Just for our audience. So they know our life is our LLC. Well, so, you know, that's, that's how much we bring this. Jeff, I noticed you have a pretty, as well as one of the three, uh, owners of sloppy boys, LLC, you seem to have a good work life balance. That's not the case with me and Mike. We're bringing our work home with us. We're losing sleep over it.

It's getting to a boiling point. Wow. And by that he means we bring six packs home and they're losing sleep because we don't sleep as well with beer in our guts. Because we have bubbly beer in our stomach. Well Churchill's Breakfast, this was created by chefsteps.com. Is anyone familiar with Chef Steps? I guess it's like a Bon Appetit or like a like Serious Eats.

Uh-huh. You know, sort of like a new era recipe. You know, they make recipes, they do blogs and all that sort of stuff. And at some point they pivoted to paywall and people didn't like it. But anyway, Winston Churchill, you know the man, yes. He's been played by some of our finest actors. Sure. Let's go.

Let's go. Prime Minister of the UK during World War II. This guy was famous for waking up and staying in bed, doing his correspondence. Oh, right. Giving dictation to his secretaries, taking meetings, reading newspapers, and having a big breakfast long after he'd awoken.

But still in bed, right? Still in bed. I love this era because he's a contemporary of FDR who had polio, so there's a reason to not get out of bed, but no, Churchill was just like, ah, I'm not getting out of bed. This guy just liked it. That's a funny thing.

That information in the wrong hands is like, hey, Churchill, he was a great guy in history. He didn't get out of bed. He did all his work from bed. I'll do that and sleep all day. Right, exactly. Well, this guy would also bathe twice a day, take a midday nap.

But he'd work late into the night. He's sort of doing two little days in our normal day. Hmm. If you can imagine that. Damn, he's good. But like I said, big breakfast for this guy that he would frequently like to cap off with a cigar and a whiskey, Scotch whiskey.

Kind of crazy, huh? Churchill's one of these famous cigar guys, I think. He was always seen with his cigars Well, sometimes the cigars just a cigar Mike What wait wait wait, I know that what is that twain Sam Clemens, I thought you were making some disgusting Lewinsky joke. Um, yep Churchill's a cigar chopper also big drinker

He came up once on the pod where I I think I talked about out Don the beachcomber I'm not saying Lewinsky joke. Yeah, Churchill was a cigar chopper, also big drinker. He came up once on the pod where I think I talked about how Don the beachcomber, when he was like the hospitality Colonel in the Navy, it was like, you gotta get a hundred barrels of rum to Churchill because he's meeting with, he's meeting with Truman on some Island and only you can get that much rum.

That's fun. The guy had a thirst for, he had an appetite for. He's sort of a Bon Vivant, Tim. Yeah. A Bon Vivant. Well, there's another drink called The Churchill. This isn't that. It seems like The Churchill is more legit because it's got a Liquor.com entry. Now is that I know a Churchill, in fact, I think Mike, didn't you tell me what the Churchill Martinez is not a. It came up, I don't know if I told you,

but it was like the Hemingway is like no vermouth and the Churchill's like a lot of vermouth or something like that. No, no, Churchill was the one that's like, you like nod in the direct, there's no vermouth, but there's a joke, it's like, hold the vermouth up to the sun and have it glint the light into your.

Yeah, there was. Yeah, fuck. I had a thing. He's just like, I like to enjoy my vermouth gazing at it from across the room while I drink my martini. Yeah, that's funny. Churchill, get out of bed real quick. The Churchill is Scotch whiskey, Cointreau sweet vermouth and lime juice,

which I would also be interested in. Yeah, let's do that next. But that's not this. This is Churchill's breakfast created in, I'm gonna say 2013, judging by the comments. There's not a publishing date on the article on Chef Steps, but the comments go back dating it to 2013. So this is the era that, you know,

imagine the birthday boys just premiered on IFC. Everyone's going crazy. Yeah. You know, over it. Over it. It. Over it. Yes.

It. It. They can't wait for Comedy Bang Bang to be over so they hear da da da da da da da da da da da da da da. Yeah. Okay, so Chef Steps created this drink as an homage to his breakfast. This isn't something Churchill drank. Okay. It's rye whiskey, which is weird because it's American maple syrup, which is weird because

it's sort of like, you know, Northeastern Canadian. But here's the recipe. 2.8 ounce rye whiskey. They use mickters straight rye mickters mickters. One point one ounce cold brew coffee. Point six, seven ounce or two thirds of an ounce maple syrup. Be grade the gritty stuff. Oh, oh, wait, I don't think I got the second time B grade has come up on the pond.

Have I gotten B grade? I forget. Angostura bitters a dash. Some large ice cubes for your shaker and two cinnamon sticks. Now, the cinnamon sticks are interesting. Yeah, there's a fun little method here where you take your chilled coupe class and you invert it and you use a flip it upside down. Yeah, there you go. Thanks. Yeah. A kitchen torch or like a, you know, oh, actually, I got one right here.

Fucking blow torch. The smoke old fashioned. Remember this guy? Yeah. Yeah. What does that advertise as, Jeff? Like a cigar lighter. OK, but it's not it's not like a bloat. It's not a piece of work workbench. No, it's not like a Home Depot thing. This is like a little a little ask on.

So you want to take your cinnamon stick and roast it so that it smokes up into the inverted glass. You kind of let that smoke well. You flip it back or I don't know. Maybe it just stays there. You mix all the ingredients in a shaker. Great. Some of that cinnamon into the bottom of the glass. Strain the contents into the glass.

And then you take the burnt cinnamon stick and plop it like it's the cigar. You're fucking kidding me. This cinnamon stick is just going to be in the drink. The bluish and the grading that happens is it from the burnt part? I'm going to go on the non burnt part. Hey, you guys are kind of grading sometimes. That's hey, hey, shit. I mean, you just got burnt.

I well know I can be grading. It's it's the voice. Yeah. What? So I thought, because I read this, I think maybe on a different site, because you're going off the chef's something, but you sent us something else.

Yeah. Is this lighting it and then putting the cup, like, upside down as if you're filling it with smoke over it? Yeah, yeah. You're trying to smoke the glass up top. But also using the cinnamon. Wait, okay. I got the steps here, but Jeff, so what do we need?

What? Does the link, do we have to have a membership or something? You said there's a screenshot, but not the link. But here's my question. These are odd measurements, 2.8 ounces, 1.1 ounces. Would you have the milliliters handy? Um, I have the grams. Milligrams, right?

Yeah, I guess. Can you screenshot those and send them to me? Yeah. Now you have to remember, King Henry danced while drinking chocolate milk. So that means you got to move the. What's that? Do you remember that from from converting? things in grams to kilograms to Kilometer, it's like

King that the letters kit from the beginning King Henry dances is Kilometers hectometers and decometers and then drinking chocolate milk is Anyway, well a gram is a milliliter, right? No. Isn't it? Think it is. Really? I think so.

Gram is weight. I know, but I think it just sort of shakes out that way. I don't know. I don't know because when we were doing acid-adjusted... Yeah, that's why I looked it up and they were like, yeah, just use milk, just pretend it's milk. No, because think of it. I did and I went ahead with it.

Jeff, but whiskey is not gonna be the same weight as a very light fine powder. Yeah, okay. Do you want the grams or not? Yes. 2.8 fluid ounces is 82 milliliters. OK, I'll give you the grams. That's all I have. All I have is grams.

So we got 78 grams of rye, 30 grams of coffee, 19 grams of maple syrup, 1.2 grams of Angostura bitters. What's happening here? Because what the fuck? We could also do the other recipe, not chef steps, but I figure like that's the OG. Right. But also how many grams of cold brew did you say? If 15 milliliters is the other recipe.

So does that help? 30 grams of cold brew coffee. Okay. So, so I'm looking at 1.1 ounces, which would be like, yeah, 30 milligrams plus a little bit more. Oh, but basically, you know, I'm just going to round these. ounces, which would be like 30 milligrams plus a little bit more. Oh, but basically, you know, I'm just going to round these. I'm going to do two point eight ounces becomes three. One point one ounces becomes one.

I think because this is an Internet cocktail and it's not like it, we should be able to adjust. Yeah, this is one step better than a craft blog cocktail. I say adjust. This is also like these are all good ingredients. It's you're not going to fuck it up too much, I don't think. And just because I don't have the method here one more time. It's I torch my cinnamon stick.

I shave. I torch my cinnamon stick. I turn my cold coupe glass upside down over it. Try to below the inside of it. Then I take it like my little grater thing that I use for like lemon zesting. I grade a little bit of cinnamon into the cup. Other than that, I'm just making the rest of this thing in a cocktail shaker, shaking it and pouring it in there.

But then I'm going to plop the stick here. Mm hmm. OK. And no ice. You say no ice. Well, you shake with three large cubes, though. You write, but then you say? No ice. Well, you shake with three large cubes, no? You're right, but then you strain. Three large cubes. This is this Churchill has a interesting figure. Yeah, cuts a large profile, wouldn't you say?

Yeah, he's rather rotund. All right. Can we make this fucking drink? I'm talking about his social profile. All right, folks, we'll be right back with more sloppy boys after this. Yahoo! ["Sloopy Boys Theme Song"] And we're back! Churchill's breakfasts in hand.

Let's see them. I couldn't get mine to smoke to my liking. I think that smoking the inside of the glass worked really well. I smelled it. I was like, oh, this is like a vermouth rinse with smoke. And then I stupidly grated from the burnt end of my stick. And then I just, I'm like, oh, I just dumped a bunch of ash. It's going to cover up that nice delicate thing I just did.

I, I would the, with the thing too, I thought it was going to be the ash, but then I was like, no, Jeff said it's just the regular cinnamon, right? Yeah. That I forgot. I'm stupid. But I, I, I would have thought it was like, why burn the thing then? That just seems strange. It's the cigar, Mike. It's the cigar. Oh, so you put the burnt one in there too, huh?

Yeah, look at it. Well, you dropped the whole, yeah, like your cigar. That's the- Oh, I- Just popped it. I broke off the part and threw it in there. Yeah, whatever. It's all cinnamon, smokey, maple.

Yeah, but I think that that ash is probably gonna help it out. Sips. It's a good smell, sips, sips, sips. Don't get swayed by that smell, Janet. Wow. My, my, my. Wow, there's got some syrup in there, doesn't it?

That's the sort of syrup I was expecting the last thing we did like this. What was that, the maple Old Fashioned? I got razzed online for using such dark, dank, dark maple. This is working. This is interesting because it's only an ounce of cold brew. So it's not like you're gonna have that espresso martini caffeine kick,

but imagine you're a rich British guy and you're having breakfast. It tastes like a cigar and coffee and whiskey. Yep. Interesting. Interesting. It's a serp. Serp. I wish I'm, this tastes like ash, like what Mike thinks Campari tastes like. I wish. Yes, yes. Now you're getting it.

What I think, what I incorrectly think. I'm already looking forward to round two, where I'm not going to grind a bunch of shitty ash in here. But this is this is intriguing to me. You know, what's funny is you bring up the espresso martini and this is a close cousin, I would say. But it's nice to have a dark liquor in there instead of that. Instead of that clear, clear vodka.

Yeah. Oh, what was that one I just had recently? I finally had the the car here I believe it's called the hang. Let's say it's another coffee drink I think I talked about on the pod said it got really big in Houston Anyway, I had one of those the other day. It was good. Oh, I had an Irish Mike You know the the dead rabbit in New York. Yes Oh, I had an Irish Mike, you know the dead rabbit in New York. Yes. It's a dead rabbit in Austin. I went and I had the famous Irish coffee.

It was fantastic. Oh, yeah. Was there anyone there cutting up the ice cubes in a cool way? Yeah. That was I remember when I went here in New York. That's your question. The bartender upstairs was using a big chunk. It was like just knocking these big chunks of ice off of an already large chunk ice. Damn. That's great. I said, well, I feel like I'm in a saloon, sir.

So wait, Tim, you saw the guy like batching them up? He would he No, he wasn't batching them up. I walked in and it was really decked out for Christmas and they had a fairly extensive Christmas cocktail menu. I looked at all of it and I said, I'm sorry, don't you guys have like a really famous Irish coffee? And he said, yes. And I said, can I have one of those? And he said, yes. And then I watched him make it.

He said, yes, in New York. Tille Mordue coffee. And then he topped it with cream, like with a little spoon and some sweet cream. It was fantastic. It was so good. Tille Mordue I'm seeing more and more. Is that a new thing or just got popular?

It's been around. It's been around for a while. I think it's like it maybe probably got like acquired by Diageo because it does feel like there's more distribution. It feels like it's having a moment. Mike, I feel like you had telling more do sunglasses. Yeah. Oh, yes, I believe I did. Yeah, I think I got them from Maybe that's what did it, Mike.

And people saw me wearing them. I think I got them at like an Irish, on a St. Patrick's day. Oh yeah, absolutely. It's funny when a liquor brand, do you remember when Bushmills whiskey suddenly had billboards where there was like indie rock bands? It was like the Decemberists for Bushmill.

And you're like, what the fuck? Well, they probably saw PBR doing its thing. It was like, let's try it. Yeah, true. And my beloved Crown Royal had just launched Dave Grohl as their rock and roll frontman right in time for his scandal. And then they kind of pulled all those ads.

What was his scandal? He had a child out of wedlock, shocked the nation. Oh, with a, was he married then or something? He's married to a lady, but Mike, that ain't the lady he's having that. That's the thing, that's the thing. I bet she's upset about it.

And he has like adult-ish children or teenage college-ish age children with his wife. And then his mistress was like, hey, I'm pregnant. And instead of the other things you can do, he, he, he came out and made an announcement. Hey everybody. I had a relationship with my woman that's not my wife. We are having a kid and I'm going to deal with the ramifications of that privately with

my family, but I want to let you all know that I'm going to have a kid. Yeah. It's funny that he has ascended to this sort of like elder statesman of rock roll where rock roll. Yeah. Yeah. Like, like I'm not surprised at all that he was sleeping with somebody who wasn't his wife. He's a rocker. Yeah. Well, like Tim was talking about, he became famous when he was like 19. He's all skewed. He's a rocker. Yeah. Well, like Tim was talking about, he became famous when he was like 19. He's all skewed.

I mean, he didn't marry, I don't think he married his wife until like the 2000s or something, but I think whatever, like, you know, the infidelity belongs in a different category than like cancer ball type predatory stuff. But I do think that Grohl to me, we've talked about how the charming funny man Grohl thing has rubbed me the wrong way. And like he was, he had just pissed me off at a concert where he was talking shit on Taylor Swift. What was he saying?

It was, there are a lot of ways you could burn Taylor Swift and he chose the wrong one. He was like, hey, this tour has been great. Uh, uh, we call it the errors tour. I'm sure you've heard of the errors tour, but we call our art tour the errors tour cause we make some mistakes here and there. We make some errors and, and uh, that's because, um, oh, I don't know. We actually play our instruments. Oh, that's fucking whack.

I just heard that from another band. It was some rock band. It is like we play our instruments up here. We play it loud. We make mistakes, but that's what life is. Also, like that's a critique of the Monkeys in 1969. Like who gives a flying fuck? A. Taylor does have a live band and she does play both piano and guitar during her show. B. It's a three hour pop show.

You think anyone gives a flying nobody? Nobody uses instruments anymore, dude. Who gives a shit? You know what? From now on, sloppy boys, we're not playing our instruments. I agree, man. The Roland is all we need. That sampler is cool as fuck.

The Roland is all we need. How did you guys feel? We did some music on that. Tonight. We've been experimenting with more backing tracks. I like it frees up our arms to perform. Yeah, it's very fun. You can be more in the room.

You can play. Hey, you, you don't like this one. Hey, you should I be playing guitar and then I'm my guitar. You wish I was doing this. But my hands are doing so much pointing. I do think calling yourself the errors tour is funny, but he should have stopped right there. Yeah. Yeah. You know. Well, because it was self-deprecating at first.

And you're like, yeah. Then he took it as a weird opportunity. There was like a another rock band. I want to say like stained or something like that, like somebody you'd never think was playing some like local, local like city radio, weenie roast or whatever. People were booing about Taylor Swift or something. And he got on the mic and he said, he was like,

Hey, Taylor Swift, she gets up there and plays for three hours singing her own songs, playing guitar. That's rock and roll to me. And everybody was like cheering. I thought that was like very cool of stained or somebody who could easily go to an old grumper. I saw this. Yeah. Stained away.

I forget who it was too, but it was cool. Mudvayne. It's funny that the audience is like booing and then he's like, no, she's good. We like her. And they're like, yay. Cause like people brought their little daughters to that show and shit.

You know, like don't be booing Taylor Swift. I think he's also kind of thinking exactly what I just said about the comedy mothership where it's like, Hey, are we not all rooting for our art form to be noticed by the public? Yes. Yes. Yes. All right. Let me turn it back to the drink of the day. Would you change it up? Would you balance it out? I would have. I fucked this up.

It tastes like a fucking ashtray, but it's all I'm excited to have a proper one on round two. I don't know what I'm going to do. I'm not going to do the ash thing. That sounds like how's yours, Jeff? Do you taste the taste the ash? Oh, Tim, you, you, you graded yours. I graded it so I can smell on the glass, like really nice smoke, but then I'm tasting like

cigarette ash. I will say I'm I'm usually a we've done the smoke thing. Jeff, we did your house with that thing. I'm usually like, oh, you can't even smell or like taste in liquor. But it might just be maybe we discussed this before. It might just be a swayed by the smell type of thing. Yeah, because it's a nice smell when you get your schnauzel right into it. But the taste, the taste isn't like screaming. Maybe it's not supposed to.

I couldn't get this, the actual cinnamon stick to be drooling smoke. I know you have to you have to like burn it upside down for like a long time. So it like catches. OK, I was going to say, like, do I have to like be sucking on the other end like a cigarette, like pulling the flame through the body of it? For me, that actually worked. I don't have a blow torch, but I put my cinnamon stick up to my stove and I held it there long enough that the butt end of it had smoke coming out of it.

Okay. Because I mean, I have like plenty of liquid left, but I do just want to like kind of start over and I just want to get a better a better smoke. What did you use for whiskey? Yours are darker. You must have had more of a coffee. I used George Dickel, right. And then I didn't I didn't use cold brew.

I used I have some like Starbucks ice coffee and a jug. That doesn't count. That's not cold brew. I just I bought like a Stumptown can of something. You're going to get zipped up. With Coraline on it. Coraline is making splashes in the ice coffee can world. Coraline. That movie came out forever ago and I don't know why Coraline's

in the mix, but I will say this. When I was checking out the self checkout, I dropped my can all of a sudden and it started shooting liquid. You know, it's like, and I put my thumb on the hole. Issssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss He was kind of, he was shaking his ass and then he said liquid started shooting out. I said, okay. Yeah, sure. Squirting. Sure. Anal squirt.

Yeah. Brown anal squirting. Anal of the can of course. Sure. You realize I'm talking about the can, right? You do realize. And not my own voluptuous ass. All right.

Enough nasty talk. Nasty man. We'll be right back with round two. You can call your, you can say whatever you want about your own rope. Okay, yeah. Folks, we're gonna make a little tweaks. You listen to the ads

and we'll have more Sloppy Boys program after this. and we'll have more Sloppy Boys program after this. We're back. Oh, we're back folks. Sloppets. Oh, we're back bitch. We are so back. What is, bitch. We are so back. What is that from? We're so back.

Swap it. I don't know. Succession? We are so back. I think so. Some real life succession shit happening with- As somebody who doesn't watch. Rupert Murdoch is trying to like,

he's got his fortune when he dies, like split between his kids. And there was just like a ruling that, cause he wanted to have it just go to one kid all of a sudden. And that's not going to happen now. Cause it's like breaking this trust or something. So, Oh, they're going to appeal it. Jeff, don't worry. When you say his fortune, do you mean fortune Feimster?

It's breaking his fortune. She can't handle it. She's like, no, let it go to let it go to everybody. All right, here we go. Sips. Oh, I did. I did a much better flame on the thing, although I had to. I had to put it out like a Dura Flame vlog, though. I was like scraping embers off of it before I put it in the drink. I did a much better.

I did a better great. And then this time I used a lighter maple syrup. Oh, great day. I did. I, I did a better grate, and then this time I used a lighter maple syrup. Ooh. Great egg. I did, I almost made a double. I did like, I did two and a half, two ounces instead of three. But just up the whiskey a little bit, which I like. I think I put too much syrup in this one, but I will say burning the, burning the cinnamon

and using that one as your drop in is, does make a difference. It's a it's a little little funnier. Yeah, it's got a campfire tinge. Yeah, I like this a lot. Yeah, people on Reddit were really gushing about it. Like there's a lot of people posting pictures being like my absolute favorite Churchill's breakfast. I do with this whiskey. I do it with a chocolate chunky chewy choppy. I do it the Rizler way. The Rizler is a perfect name. That's the best. He's great. And he's funny.

He's actually good. He's actually funny. He's actually no, he's working on a pilot. He's writing a pilot that looked at is really,'s funny. He's actually good. He's actually on he's actually no he's working on a pilot He's writing a pilot that looked at is really really funny Imagine if he was like turn like what I was just saying about the other guy dying imagine the because I agree I think the Rizzo is the good one, but imagine if he had like a long fruitful career And he's the good one cuz he's an innocent young boy. That's the other thing too. Like I saw a Instagram of him. I think it was his Instagram from like He's the good one because he's an innocent young boy. That's the other thing too. Like I saw a Instagram of him. I think it was his Instagram from like

his current age but like at a store with his parents and he wanted to like get something and he was like Crying and you know, he's a seven-year-old would do but just like this is the Rizler act in this way This guy is mr. Cool and he can't act like that. He's an institution. He's the reason he's got a career. That is so funny. It's like he's the reason. And then sometimes he shits his pants. And he's like, oh, he's the reason. Well, it's like with all these guys, you're saying like he could get big. It's like they just flopped into this thing and they'll either flop back out of it

or it'll flop its way into more stuff. Could you imagine? I know this has been said so many times, but aren't you so relieved to have grown up just before the internet because I looked exactly like the Rizzler and I did a lot of dumb shit that only lives on some high eight tapes in my parents' basement.

The Kalbizer. But Tim, you say that, but what if some of your little Kalpakian antics went viral and you'd have a bunch of money? I would be dead. I would have driven into the ocean, probably. Oh, you're saying the success would have driven you mad. I couldn't handle it. The success of being the funniest kid in Ontyora Junior High School almost killed me.

I can't imagine being. He can barely survive being the funniest guy on Hillhurst Boulevard. Could you imagine? You put work into that too. I see you walking around. You changed your pep it up routine into, I like you, I wanna talk to you.

Give me that dog, let him over here. Don't worry, let your dog in all the stores. Press that button. This is a good drink. I'm going to dash away for two seconds. I forgot to dash my Angostura, first of all. And I want to put a little extra whiskey in it. Honestly, I forgot my dash of Angostura as well.

Two seconds. I'll hold it down while you guys go. It's a very forgettable ingredient, a dash of anything. No, no, Two seconds. I'll hold it down while you guys go. It's a very forgettable, agree to a dash of anything. No, no, no. Tim vamp. Okay, great. Hold it down, Tim. Hey everybody. I just want to say, you know, like,

go easy on Mike and Jeff. I know they're not the coolest guys, but they're trying their best. And for any of their flaws, they over, they compensate in other ways. So just to stick with, hey, Jeffy, what's up? Hey, I didn't hear anything you said. So I just assume it's going to be all good

and trees worthy. I was kind of talking about financial advice. Oh, sweet. Is that what you were doing to kill the time? Kill the Tony. You see, I got this big old Angostura back when we were Oh, sweet. Is that what you were doing to kill the time to kill the Tony? You see, I got this big old Angostura back when we were making probably the Trinidad Sour or similar. Hold it more away from the camera.

I see how big that thing is. Oh, yeah, it is big. I took the speed pour off it. So now every time I do a dash, I risk a deluge. You need from dash to deluge to Jefferson Dutton story. I might take the speed pour thing off mine because most of my dashes end up on the counter. Like the first two dashes are not in the cup. They're everywhere.

Isn't it funny with the fucking Angus Stewart bottle that everyone knows the iconically big label is too big for the bottle, but now Jeff's holding up an extra large bottle and then they made an extra large label. How about you fucking tell the Fee brothers or whoever the fuck. Put the little label on the big bottle,

the problem's solved. Put that label, we can just print one label size. We'll allow it to be too big for the small bottles but have a nice snug fit on the large bottles. You fucking capitalist pigs. Guys, I have a great fucking idea. We, the sloppy boys, we don't normally go too hard into fashion. We shrink the labels on on bitters and we fix them.

We make a bitters. No, no, no. No, this is the sloppy boys movies. We had a shrink ray from from Rick Moranis and we go around shrinking in the store labels. The labels so they fit. Yeah, we go to his like, he's doing like a yard sale. We're like, what's this old piece of junk?

He's like, that used to shrink my kids. No, I'm saying, check this out. On the website, we sell t-shirts. Yes, we do. You can go get them. And you can go get some vinyl if they're not sold out. They're probably sold out. Oh shit.

But here, I'm saying, wouldn't it be funny if we made Angostura turtlenecks? Ah, you've got the turtleneck doing the little thing, but it's a shirt you wear and on the chest is Angostura aromatic bitters. Yeah, that's a good idea, Jeff. I think that's good money. We should also just like branch out and do like instead of T-shirts,

something like a turtleneck or like a Jersey or some some new ideas. Oh some premium outerwear 2025 this is gonna be and happy belated New Year's to everyone out there. I feel like I don't need to say it anymore, but This could be a big big year for us long preamble then you birthed Who folks we got a new shirt coming by the way Big year for us. Long preamble, then you burped. Oh, folks, we got a new shirt coming, by the way. Uh, do we? Yeah, we got that we got that caricature one still to come out.

Oh, yes. That's a good shirt. I think it would also be a good art print for my living room. Art print. All right. Final thoughts, Mike, you kind of kicked off final thoughts. Why don't you? Oh, hey man, this is great. For like a new drink that kind of felt like,

or you were saying like a step up for my, you know, craft bloggers, you know, make the Frankenstein drink that's green. This is really great for something that came out in 2013. Balanced, autumnal. I feel like I just returned to the Idlewild forest. Yeah, that's good. Damn, that's good.

Now, could I order this at a bar, you think? I don't think so. If you just walked into a dive bar and said, give me a round of Churchill's breakfasts. But yeah, like a death and co type place would do this. I wonder if it's on any menu anywhere. Like maybe this is Reddit only. I think this is also like with that, with the sit, like just do regular bars

have cinnamon there. Cinnamon, I think so. Tiki bars do. That's not a regular bar, though. Secret ingredient cinnamon. What's that? Yes. Secret ingredient cinnamon. What's that? Yes. Cigarette, cinnamon, cinnamon. Let me give it Stella. Is this something we did?

No. Yes, it's Stella. That's Stella. Yes. Michael Showalter in the coffee shop episode with the hangout at the coffee shop all day. And he came up with a drink that's free because it's free. He's like, it's cinnamon. But he's so proudly showing you a glass of milk and then the secret ingredient,

cinnamon. Like, yeah, no shit. Cinnamon milk. I just started rewatching the, the last season of Wet Hot. Like when it's like 10 years later. Oh wow. Dude, I gotta do that. It's really funny.

It's, you forget like, there's just jokes upon jokes upon jokes. It's really great. That's a great wreck for me because I watched all the other ones and I just forgot that there's just jokes upon jokes upon jokes. It's really great. That's a great wreck for me because I watched all the other ones and I just forgot that there's this entire season of a funny comedy show that I haven't even touched yet. That's exciting to me.

Oh, similarly, I forgot about the great Muppet Caper. Oh yeah, the baseball diamond. Yes. So I thought it went from Muppet movie to Manhattan to Christmas because Kelsey and I are watching a bunch of Muppet stuff. Forgot all about number two, caper. That's right.

There's a whole Muppet movie I forgot all about. And I watched it and just laughed my ass off. They go to Manhattan after caper. You said? Yeah, Manhattan's three. I was going to picture this VHS VHS cover, but it's possible I've never seen caper. We're watching it for the next blowout. Have you seen Treasure Island?

No, that's another. No, someone just told me about that. They said it's amazing. What the fuck is that? I never I've never. That was like later, later. Muppets like in the 90s or something. I've heard people say like because I think Christmas is the best one or my favorite one.

It's a good story. Um, Tim, that's good at doing a little donk donk. Yeah, yeah. You can. You got the cinnamon stick right there. The cook class right there. And if you're a musician like me, it's a drink made for donking around. Yeah.

But I'll tell you, I want to see Treasure Island. I don't much care to see muppets in Space. Right. Oh, right. I have not heard much good about that. Now, there was a sketch on the old show called Pigs in Space. Do you think that was involved? Yeah, I remember that. But but Muppets in Space is like the whole it's not just the pigs. It's a group.

There's magic in the air to the night. Beakity, be. Tim, do you have your final thoughts? I love it. I'm surprised because smokiness doesn't all. You've heard me guys not be excited about mezcal or scotch or whatever, but this is a fun smokiness. And yeah, it's funny you don't like the smokiness because you love the green. Well, he's my doctor. He's my doctor. I've been visiting him every once in a while. He's he's kind of a shitty doctor in terms of, you know, what you learn in med school.

He's the one they call Dr. Green Tom. Do you guys remember a birthday boy sketch I wrote that we never, I think maybe I pitched in a comedy bang man. I also pitched in a voice where I think I understand why we didn't do this because maybe it was doing an offensive voice in the table where you but it was like, like a teacher being like, Hey kids, we just want to let you know, like you really shouldn't smoke marijuana and like here to to elaborate that point, we're going to do this musical tribute. It's like the teacher is like, don't smoke the ganja.

And it was like, the ganja smoke, you must not talk. And then like, there was like a rap from like a Cypress Hill like, the ganja smoke, you must not talk. And it made it sound like the funnest thing in the world, but saying that you shouldn't do it. Could have been good. Could have been good. Could have been one of the best. That's our show. Follow us on

social media at the Sloppy Boys where we release these recipes ahead of time. And if you can't get enough boys, you know, it's patreon.com slash the sloppy boys. I've seen a lot of people get on there just because they were. They had to check out the live show. They wanted to see the whole arc of the whole tour. They wanted to hear it. Half those live episodes are on the blowout. A lot of shit going on. And then they also say they want to come see us live

when we come by their town. That's good. Well, you're saying that you got to go behind the paywall to hear some of our live shows. Interesting. I guess it's time to pony up the five bucks. That's good that people are like wanting to check out the live stuff later.

They love it. You know, it's like, hey, well, come there. Be there first. Because it's better live. The audio recordings are awful. Come live, folks. If you heard about Cornell 77, year for years later, you'd be returning,

you want to listen to that. You'd be a tape trader. You'd be trying to listen to Cornell 77. That's what has become of LA 24. Right. That's what LA 24 is going to be that historic. And let me give another compliment to this drink. And also Kudehi, Wisconsin, 24.

Oh yeah, 25. I said it wrong in our Vancouver episode. Jeff had spelled it wrong in our Cooley over episode. Jeff had spelled it wrong. So I I phonetically said it, how Jeff spelled it. And then people were like, what the fuck did you say? And I said, and then what is it really? Do we know? We don't know either way. Mike still don't know.

Good. Good. Good. Good. Crude today. Good. Have a crude today for us there. We'll bring crude today on stage with us. Hey, this drink is boozy. Two point eight ounces is a lot of whiskey. Usually there's only two tops. That's him. I can handle it pretty good.

Yeah, look, there's a good yield. Did you guys notice it fills the coop? Oh, yeah. There's a lot of drinks. Don't fill the coop. Yeah, I need to get a coupe class. I'm fucking around with a martini glass here. I think this initial recipe was a double. But hey, it fills the coop.

Hey, it fills the coop. I'll say this about coup classes, too. Don't you hate when you order a martini and it comes in a coup class and not a martini glass? Oh, yeah. Yeah, of course. It's like, what the fuck am I doing here? Why did I come here? So why am I giving you?

I'm just me now. Me talking to I come here? Why am I giving you, I'm just now me talking to the barge, why am I giving you my hard earned cash? Hard earned? Why am I giving you cash? Yeah, thank you. When you're a professional podcaster, you can't say hard earned cash.

What are you talking about? I had to wake up from a nap to be on here. Hard earned, bro, You sell MP3s. When I'm not doing that, I sell T-shirts. Look, if you order a martini, it should come in the most tippy glass you got. Probably a martini glass, unless you got something tippy or a coupe. He probably sees you as an active guy. That guy is going to be moving around a lot.

He needs the stability of a coupe. Well, I tell you, I went to Nighthawk, Nighthawk Theatre, Nighthawk here in Brooklyn. And I saw a guard, a gladiator to which I talked about a lot on the blowout. But yeah, they at the bar, they gave me a martini, a coupe and a coupe glass. I was like, OK, fine. And I'm spilling that thing everywhere. I lost half of it getting to this movie.

We're talking about movie watching experiences and that had drinks involved. Yes. Yeah. McGuffins. I saw when I was in Austin, I went to the Alamo draft house to see our friend Kyle Mooney's movie, Y2K.

Oh yes. Oh. I'm eating wings. I'm drinking whiskey, I'm watching Kyle's movie, but even better, he did some before the movie type, you know, cause Alamo's cool. Oh, he did like a special Alamo thing? Yes, I'm walking in, I'm getting my seats,

it's 10 minutes before the movie. They're showing- A Kyle X Alamo collab? Exactly, but first off, I don't even know if he knew this, they were showing old classic Kyle YouTube clips as you're even like walking into the theater. Oh shit. Right, they do fun stuff.

I saw a state short the other day in front of Conclave. It was the one with the Pope. It's like, hey, I'm at the Pope. But because Conclave's about Pope's and stuff. Oh my God. Wait, what? That's the hippest shit ever. Are you serious? That's what I said. I was like, you guys are pretty hip.

I thought you were joking. By the way, we should have had Kyle on the pod to promote the movie to our small but loyal, but modest audience. Not too late. What is Kyle is a big flip cup guy. So maybe it's beer. Maybe a briskey. Yeah, maybe beer. He's from digital flip cup San Diego. So I'm guessing to Katay. Oh, no, nobody. Anyway, I bring it up to say so they're showing old YouTube things

And then once you sit down and once the movie starts he had recorded an Alamo specific video Oh true, and it was very fun. It was like a funny sketch. He's like Hey Alamo draft house I just want to get let you guys know like try not to talk too much during the movie. Like, so for example, and like, you know, the culture of Alamo, he's like, let's say you're having, you're trying to order loaded fries and a Laganitas. It was very funny, so we should have a Laganitas.

That reminds me of how Charlie XCX congratulated me for listening to so much damn brat on my Spotify rap this year. I haven't looked at mine yet. As of the as of the the posting of this episode, I will have looked at it. But I feel like this year was like the first year where people weren't going fucking cuckoo bananas posting their Spotify rap. I think we're over it. I think it's oh, yeah, I think we're over it.

It happened for like three years straight. And then everyone behind everyone else is back We're like, okay, you don't have to post your spot of it. Do you think like I hope like people are like, okay Spotify We know that you're like killing the music industry. Do you think that has any part of it? Or is it just like I think it's just cliche to post that stuff. It's Shugi Yeah, I don't think the regular person knows that the music industry is falling apart as well as the TV and film industry podcast industry Thriving over here is thriving and we're the leaders of said industry. It's a bull market for the pod

When you're waiting through the hundreds and hundreds of Spotify wrapped posts I love seeing there's there's like a handful of people that like, I do Apple music and they do a rap type thing, so here's my results. And then. Like, shut up. But then every once in a while there's a weirdie that's like, some Google Play kid that's like, look at my number one artist.

And you're like, oh boy. You're like, no, the interesting here is that you are devoted to Google Play. I got one from my Duolingo app this year. It was like, here's what your studies went into. I was like, I don't give a fuck about my studies. Your number one word is C. I do think it's fun to like look at people's spot.

I mean, look, I know we're talking shit and Spotify sucks, but I like the raps because I like to look through and see like, you know, an acquaintance or like a neighbor and be like, I didn't know they listened to Caroline Polichek. Yeah, it is interesting. I gave it one day as the Sloppy Boy's social media manager, I said, we're going to be tagged in a shitload of these

and I'm going to re-share them and look at them and stuff for this one day. But you got to, as a band. I will say that's the cool thing about it. It's fun to see people say like, oh, you are my top listen. And yeah. And the one I really enjoyed the music because the podcast ones like, look, it's not fascinating

to see. Oh, you listen to sloppy boys and doughboys and blank check and comedy bang bang. Oh, wow. But I did see a handful of people that were like sloppy boys and then like weird true crime stuff I hadn't heard of them. The Daily, This Week in the Arts. Menso Weekly. But the music ones are great because really it wasn't,

I would expect to see just Whit Thomas, Tim Heidecker, and Don't Stop or We'll Die, but that really wasn't the case. It was like, it was all over the place. And you'd see people like, your number one artist is Kendrick Lamar. Your number two artist is sloppy boys. That's fantastic. I love it.

Anyway, folks, folks, thanks for hanging out. This is a nice long episode. That's good. Good kickoff. Oh, shit. Kickoff to the year. Yeah. Enjoy it. Enjoy it. We should charge double. It's a late Christmas gift for y'all. All right, folks. See you next week. Hey, bring a friend. Why don't you bring a friend? And hey, if you're inviting me, bring a Churchills breakfast. Give it up for your boys Give it up for your boys Give it up for your boys
