Hi, this is Griffin McElroy.
And this is wonderful.
You're so chill right now.
I'm really, i'm tapping in man
are you hold on wait this is a fun game i like to play with myself sometimes and i don't know
how it'll go as a sort of two-player cooperative experience but it's a game i like to call chill
or just very tired um because chill is a decision both both and right right yeah why can't it be both and i mean i guess if you are
it's a venn diagram situation where if you are tired you're chill but if you're chill you're
not necessarily tired you've decided to be chill yeah i have decided to be chill you can't decide
to be tired except i guess by having the making the decision to have two kids is a decision that
you make that does make you quite tired.
This is wonderful.
Shall we talk about things we like
that's good that we are into?
We're about to hit the road around these parts.
I think that's also part of the reason for the energy
is we are both kind of coiled like snakes,
ready to strike at our audience,
who we're gonna see, I hope, at our shows.
Please come see our shows. When you hear this today, we're performing in Philly today on Wednesday, and then we're gonna to see i hope at our shows please come see our shows

be in new york doing taz on thursday i'm a bim bam on friday and by we i mean myself yeah i was
gonna say when you say we does it make you feel better than saying please come see my show yeah
i guess it does yeah come see multiple people on a stage of whom i will be one there you go uh
go to macro.family you can find links to all that stuff do you have any small wonders babe
um i'm gonna say the quest for the perfect pumpkin beer go with god my friend go on that journey i wish i could be your your
partner in crime on that one i just can't i think it's so yucky i i am working my way through the
elysian uh sampler of pumpkin related beverages um which i have enjoyed i just you know what for
me it's almost more about the quest than it is the
product because i find myself every fall just delighted to see if maybe there's a a better one
out there for me yeah i'm kind of that way with sparkling water too like one of these days i'm
going to find the perfect version of this beverage i tried la croix once and i've never had a bad
la croix they've all i mean they're all kind of bad, right?
Because they don't taste like much.
That's the thing.
Like, I want it to be good.
Oh, okay.
No, see, if I have a sparkling water and they put like juice in it to make it actually sweet,
I feel like I'm committing a grave sin.
Yeah, see, I like the Spindrift a lot.
But I know that you don't.
Yeah.
So I'm trying a bunch of different.
I always like the Cherry Lime.
Oh, God, yeah.
But they put it in those skinny cans.
Why?
Skinny cans are nothing.
Stop using those, LaCroix.
Unless it's for an environmental reason.
In which case, I love it.
What's your small wonder?
Oh, gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my goodness.
I'm so glad that you've asked.
Well, I'll tell you.
I was hoping if I kept doing that long enough.
I've been reading a lot of Brandon Sanderson lately.
He's a fantasy sci-fi author.
He's done a bunch of series.
And he has one big series called The Stormlight Archives that my whole family has been recommending to me.
And so I finished one of his other series, started writing on this one.
It's good.
It's big.
It's a big old book.
They usually are the sci-fi.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This one's pure fantasy.
Pure uncut fantasy.
And it's a long road.
What does that mean when you say it's pure fantasy?
I mean, there's not spaceships in it or guns.
I guess if it doesn't have spaceships or guns, but it does have dragons, that's a fantasy book, baby.
Oh, okay.
This one doesn't have dragons in it, though.
So, I don't know.
I'm betraying my own definition, I suppose.
I feel like it's got to be really hard as a sci-fi author.
Because every time you sit down, you're like're like okay i guess i have to world build
and that's like they hate that shit that's like 200 pages right there yeah and then you can like
finally get to the story and then that's what like 100 pages well okay what you've described
is a pretty bad book usually they'll do both at the same time they'll interweave yeah um i don't i don't read a lot of no that i mean
that's kind of how dune is from what i understand it's been i read dune when i was like in high
school but i do remember it being like okay so here's these like eight planets you gotta remember
all these planets and their cool shit that they do anyway you go first this week thank god
my first thing is the 18 and up dance club
all right i guess i guess man here's the thing just because it hasn't been executed
well well yeah sure comma so the concept of the 18 plus dance club. Yes. Yeah. Okay. All right. Okay.
Yeah.
I mean, this was half my life ago and about the same for you.
We can be nostalgic.
I suppose so.
I just, I worry that I'm going to look back at those with rose tinted glasses, except
they were all so gross.
So I don't actually think that's possible.
No, this is the problem.
Like, can we dislike something?
Well, because there's no way to execute it well okay i feel like there there maybe is there are
probably examples of this being done well and i know as an 18 year old this was quite a thrill
oh for sure i think um particularly when you're college age and not yet 21,
to be able to go somewhere just with other adults having fun was an exciting prospect.
Drinking Hawaiian punch and what have you.
I know.
I know.
That's what's really charming about the 18 and up club,
particularly if that is all it is.
Yeah.
You know, like every day of the week, that's what we do here
because they do often have candy and is. Yeah. You know, like every day of the week, that's what we do here.
Because they do often have candy and snacks.
Yeah.
Now, there was, okay, in Huntington, I feel like you could get into bars when you were younger than 21, but older than 18, but you had to wear a special wristband.
Yeah. And you couldn't be served alcohol.
Or you got the X's on your hands.
Or the X's on the hands.
Okay.
I do remember doing a lot of that.
Yeah.
There was a Christian nightclub called Club of David.
The stories you tell are so unreal to me.
Yeah.
How did it feel saying that sentence?
There was a Christian nightclub called Club of David that was very close to the Marshall
campus.
How did you know it was a Christian nightclub?
Did it put it on the yeah and then you
just knew if someone was going to club of david they were going to have they were going to have
a wholesome club of david club of david not david's club the club of david or club david
club david sound isn't that where they go to do the presidential piece? Camp David.
Okay.
Some people call it Club David if you go a lot.
They're a frequent flyer.
It's those beautiful hills.
So I could think of two places in St. Louis.
Okay.
And I reached out to my friends to try and get both of them.
I only got one. One was typically a country western bar.
Right.
That I think had 18 and up nights okay where they played
a mix of popular music and not just country western and it was called in cahoots
that's good and again country western so huge dance floor uh a lot of Western theming. But if you went, you know, the right night of the week,
you know, you could get some get some R&B. Okay. And then there was another club and I cannot
remember the name. It's not going to be better than in cahoots. Of course, of course, neither
of these clubs exist anymore. No, sure. But the one i went to it had two stories in the first story
i'm saying this mainly so that our st louis listeners can maybe help me okay so the year
was 2000 which alienates a large portion of our listeners already yeah but there was a first floor
that had a stage in the middle and a bar that you couldn't go to and then there was an upstairs that
also had like a smaller dance floor i've never seen
you narrow cast to our audience as much as i want to know the name of this place i can tell yeah
um but i can't remember it and there's obviously no way to search it yeah uh so here i am i was
trying to think of you mentioned neither of those clubs exist anymore i had the thought of if you
show me a 18 plus club that survived the covid pandemic i know i will show you a money
laundering front for sure how do you do that where's the money coming from guys good point i
don't know uh investigate maybe they're great snacks they started door dashing them maybe
they're ghost kitchens for mr bees uh i wanted to like obviously very quickly just give a little story here um
there's a few stories one i didn't know providence rhode island apparently is the spot there are 24
licensed clubs 13 of which are 18 plus wow okay crazy um most places like i mentioned you know
you've got two or three, uh, and part of the
reason, obviously I mentioned they don't stay open very long.
Uh, it's very difficult to regulate.
A lot of them lose their liquor license regularly.
This happened in my college town all the time.
Oh, for sure.
Because it's just impossible to kind of keep track of all the information you're legally
required to keep track of.
Yeah, sure.
of all the information you're legally required to keep track yeah sure um also a lot of a lot of teenage people um have nowhere else to go and when you get a lot of them together they make poor
decisions yes so a lot of these clubs um just they were they were dangerous to keep open
um but i wanted to talk about something there's a whole Defunctland episode about this because there were Disney teen nightclubs.
Oh, my.
I was just thinking every teen nightclub I ever went into was so grody.
But if Disney could get a hand on the ball and create a real manicured experience, which I'm sure this was.
Yes.
Because it was on Defunctland.
So this was Videopolis.
Sounds cool. It opened in on defunct land. So this was Videopolis. Sounds cool.
It opened in 1985.
A little early.
So here's the thing.
So new CEO at the time, Michael Eisner, wanted to build more thrill rides like Splash Mountain and Star Tours.
But they took a while to complete.
And he wanted to get those teens there as fast as possible.
Okay.
Because Disney was seeing a real decrease in the teens. Right. what the fuck did they have yeah what are they going to do
so he very quickly wanted to open a nightclub now some people think that this was because
knott's berry farm at the time had studio k this was a club inside their park and they offered nightly tickets at a lower price so teens could come dance.
Party, sure.
Okay.
At Knott's Berry Farm.
Okay.
So Videopolis had a light up dance floor.
Cool.
DJs.
Love it.
And over 70 video screens which could display music videos from MTV and live videos of dancers on the floor.
Now you don't want 70 of those.
I'm going to go ahead and tell you if you're putting together,
if you're putting together a sort of nightclub experience,
there is a certain amount of sort of darkness and anonymity that is in,
in,
in pursuit there.
I feel like having 70 big video screens on the dance floor,
it's a little too much sensory.
Unless they were like clustered in a way.
Oh, cool.
So like this side of the room is showing, you know, I don't know, Sledgehammer.
And then the other side of the room is showing like Video Killed the Radio Star.
Yeah, those are the two music videos.
Okay, so this was Disneyland.
of the two videos uh okay so this was disneyland they created a videopolis east at disney world on pleasure island which is now disney springs do you remember pleasure island i don't remember
pleasure island pleasure island before it was disney springs uh was just like this idea of
like this is where all the bars are so i mean it's basically what disney springs is now but
like with less shopping yeah less focus on retail um guy fieri doesn't own a restaurant there i assume at videopolis
uh no videopolis also hosted a show for the disney channel uh that featured popular bands
at the time they were really trying to like jump on this mtv craze the teens were wild for
uh the other thing i will just say as we close um wait
what happened videopolis
uh 1989 videopolis in disneyland closed uh and the the east one uh actually stayed open for a while, but it was changed to a theater
and then Fantasyland Theater
and then closed in 2020 due to the pandemic.
Now that's interesting
because I have heard from reputable sources
that California knows how to party.
And yet it seems like not so much
if Videopolis couldn't survive there.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, part of it, if you watch the whole thing and read the story is that people couldn't afford to go disneyland
like didn't really create a price break for people coming to the club it was basically for like
season ticket holders all right so it was difficult to get the teens in there yeah because you could
only really afford if you
could already go people don't go to the super bowl for the hot dogs well probably not probably
not but what is what are the hot dogs in this are the hot dogs okay uh the other thing i will just
mention uh quickly uh is that the names of teen nightclubs are always really good. Oh, for sure.
I found this great article from 1962.
Jesus Christ.
This is Time Magazine talking about some of the teen clubs at the time.
There was one called The Peppermint Stick.
Okay.
Which people referred to as The Stick.
Hate that. And here here's another
one called the surf that's just outside of boston well hold on that's not where that happens
historically yeah that's true i apologize boston if there's a hot surfing scene there that i just
do not know about chicago had one called fickle pickle that's good now we're back yeah so uh yeah
so that's another good thing anyway um uh again i recognize i do not know if there is a way to
execute this correctly don't think so but it is almost a little utopia for me because turning 18
very quickly feels like not anything special yes because you can vote but most often you're not
able to vote right away yeah you can buy, but most often you're not able to vote right away.
Yeah.
You can buy cigarettes, but a lot of you have already been smoking.
Okay.
That's not what I would have said at that part.
I am just saying that the teenagers I knew that were excited about buying cigarettes had already been smoking and the hurdle was now removed.
Yeah, that's a fair point.
I think for Huntington, there are so many bars there.
So many of them did 18 plus nights
that dedicated teen nightclub experiences
like Club of David could not hang in that heat.
Why on earth would you go to Club David
if you could go over to Stumbler's 2 Still Stumbling?
I ask you of this.
You don't know the answer.
Was that an 18 and up also?
They had an 18 and up night.
Their hot corner.
Everyone's at the hot corner.
This is the thing, right?
And this is what Disney was all about.
Like there are teens out there.
We can make money off those teens.
They have nowhere to go.
Yes.
Let's create a place for them.
Charge them $5 to get in and then $5 for a soda, and bam, you know?
Meanwhile, I'm with my buddies having a LAN party.
Gratis.
Economically minded.
That's me.
That's you.
That's why I made the decisions I made.
In college, economics.
Economics.
Not because I was ill-suited to the nightclub lifestyle.
Nah.
I was watching my wallet because I have big dreams of starting a podcast empire.
Can I steal you away?
Yes.
I'm Dan McCoy.
I'm Stuart Wellington.
I'm Elliot McCoy. I'm Stuart Wellington. I'm Elliot Kalin.
And together we are The Flophouse,
a long-running podcast on the Maximum Fun Network,
where we watch a bad movie and then talk about it.
And because we're so long-running,
maybe you haven't given us a chance.
I get it.
But you don't actually have to know anything
about previous episodes to enjoy us,
and I promise you that if you find our voices irritating,
we grow ende you next podcasts.
Co-Optober continues in celebration of National Co-op Month.

This week is all about community.
Of course, we couldn't be a co-op without the MaxFun community.
And we love it whenever members of our audience get together.
So we're having another MaxFun meetup this Thursday, October 12th. And next week, we'll be hosting a panel discussion with other worker owners across the co-op community.
And we are still selling our limited edition Launch Crew merch available to all MaxFun members.
But only through the end of the month.

That's C-O-O-P-T-O-B-E-R.
Have a great week.
Are you ready for some Triscuits?
That's the segment I'm going to do is Triscuits.
But I sang it in the football way.
This is how he asks me any question now.
He just sings it along to the football song.
If it's two syllables, yes, of course.
And I get so excited.
Triscuits, funny you should mention this.
Yeah.
I was the one that brought Triscuits into our house.
That's true.
Because my friend was having a book club night.
Uh-huh. And she asked people if they could bring some snacks. And I thought, what is a fancy snack
cracker for a group of ladies discussing a book with wine? And I thought, well, of course,
the Triscuit, it is the fanciest cracker there is. Let me tell you, a lot of people when they
are at this junction, at this intersection, they look at at triscuits but then they look over at
some cracker brand that's very thin and maybe has like a dove imprinted on each cracker oh like the
water crackers like the water crackers it's a brand you've never heard of before and they are
awful flavorless but everybody's like well these must be the fancy ones fuck that i say triscuits
are the way to go exclusively for you. I have
never had a communion wafer or any kind of wafer in a religious environment, but I imagine that's
what they taste like. Pretty much, yeah. I mean, the different places do it different. Some places
do a big loaf of bread you tear off. Growing up in Highland Baptist Church, it was basically just
an unsalted oyster cracker
that you got that was not-
And you know, it's not the cracker's fault.
It's-
Not the cracker's fault.
No, no, no.
It's the body of Christ.
Well, yeah.
Well, depending, again,
the different places have different sort of-
Oh, right.
It's not always the, okay.
Yeah.
Sometimes it's what?
The power of Christ.
Triscuits are the undisputed king of crackers, though, above communion wafers.
Yes.
If my church had given out triscuits instead of communion wafers, I would probably still be a practicing Southern.
That's all it would take, guys.
I know y'all are trying to get me back in.
Pack some triscuits in there.
I like thinking that there are like parishioners or whatever listening right now that just like paused their podcast and they yelled over their shoulder, quick, go get Triscuits.
There's no, I mean, I will say this.
I think you can probably get communion wafers for pretty cheap.
Probably get them in bulk at Costco.
If you did go up to a Triscuit per member of the congregation,
first of all, word's going to get out.
You're going to pack the house.
You're going to be stoked.
But then your Triscuit overage is going to be out of control.
Yeah, it's true.
Triscuits are not a cheap cracker.
No, they are not, but they are worth it.
You get every time when you bite into one of these salty baskets,
it is a fucking delight they are
a toothsome cracker that have some there's like multiple it's almost like lamination yeah there's
like multiple layers uh instances with each bite um if you've never salty so which is salty well
they make reduced sodium ones but and i think good. They taste like a normal cracker.
But the full salt Triscuits are, I don't know.
I'm a big man.
I need a big flavor.
That's all I can say.
Triscuits are, if you've never had one, first of all, that's bad.
That's sad.
I love the part of the show where we feel the need to explain what something is to our listener.
They're these wonderful little squares about two inches across made of layered webs of toasted shredded wheat. Is that how they describe it?
That is, I mean, basically, no, that is not how they would describe it.
I don't think anyone wants to eat a web, but that is sort of how they make them. They smoosh up a bunch of wheat and water,
and then they press it into these little fine,
like gauzy strips,
and then they layer those on top of each other,
put a little bit of oil in there,
a little bit of salt,
dry them the fuck out.
You got yourself a Triscuit baby.
The crunch is out of control on these.
They are also quite thick, these crackers,
and so they are stable enough to hold
whatever kind of toppings
that you might dream to put on yeah that's what i like about i'm just looking at pictures of
triscuits right now it's okay if the answer is yes like well i wanted to see how they build
themselves like how do they describe themselves the salty baskets that preachers love
uh i did see that the company that makes triscuits also makes shredded wheat which you're
really getting ahead of me babe i never do this to you when you're like today i'm gonna talk about
the tv show gargoyles and then i hop in like uh did you know let me get on my phone yeah i can't
find i can't find what triscuit says i'm just curious how they describe their own product
because it is an unusual.
There's one description I have in here that is very good that I will get to.
I'm sorry if I'm going too slow for you.
I'm really trying to savor this experience like one would a Triscuit cracker.
So people have made some pretty remarkable innovations in the field of Triscuit topping innovation.
in the field of Triscuit topping innovation.
This is one thing that I would say, Google image search Triscuit recipes or Triscuit toppings,
and then just have a feast for those senses.
Lot of cream cheese, lot of chives, smoked salmon,
sun-dried tomatoes, little bruschetta,
little guacamole, some flank steak,
anything you can imagine, you can put on a Triscuit
and it can fucking handle it.
Cause it's got the sort of lattice work structure that will not bend to even a hearty sauce that you might put on there.
Let's talk flavors. Rachel mentioned, this is the fancy cracker. I agree. The flavors on these bad
boys are not pedestrian. There's no no cool ranch there's no barbecue blasted
I'm talking about
balsamic vinegar and basil
dill sea salt and olive oil
cracked pepper and olive oil
which is probably
my all time favorite
that one
knocks my fucking socks off
every time I get it
so much flavor
so much boldness
smoked gouda
roasted garlic
four cheese and herb
parmesan garlic
and tzatziki
whoa
they're all over the map with these.
But they're all quite fancy.
Smoked Gouda.
Pass me the smoked Gouda Triscuit.
I don't know what that voice is.
It's like the Godfather.
Triscuits are the cracker Godfather would eat.
These are upscale flavors for an upscale cracker experience.
And most of them are just so good.
We just tore through a box of these cracked pepper and olive oil baddies in like, what,
a couple of days?
So flavorful.
The boldness of these are just going to drive you hog wild.
Triscuits were invented at the turn of, I guess, the last century.
1900 was the year.
Let me take you back there.
Come with me.
It entered production from the Shredded Wheat
Company in 1903. Sorry, I spoiled that
for you. This was before the Shredded Wheat
Company was acquired by Nabisco
in 1928.
The creator of Triscuits was a man
named Henry D. Perky,
which is cool.
And he witnessed a man
at a Nebraska diner eating
a bowl of boiled whole wheat.
And he was just like, this shit is so healthy, bro.
And Henry D. Perky started to make shredded wheat inspired by that.
And he called it, quote, the most perfect food that was ever devised for the nourishment of man.
Which, I mean, I will say this, crazy high in fiber.
So much fiber in a Triscuit.
So you're going to get what you need there.
Wait, are we still talking about shredded wheat or Triscuits?
They're the same shit.
One is salty.
Put salt on the shredded wheat cereal.
I was just wondering if there was an innovation where he recognized that people were turning shredded wheat into a savory snack.
And he was like, stop that.
Yeah, I'm going to do it now.
Yeah, I would imagine that did happen.
Or maybe somebody accidentally made frosted shredded wheats with salt.
I actually don't know when frosted shredded wheats were invented.
I don't think we had frosting technology in 1900.
Well, we're not here today to talk about shredded wheat.
We're not.
Yeah.
Can I say something?
I love shredded wheat, too.
We never get it.
I know.
I do, too.
Let's give shredded wheat, yeah. Can I say something? I love shredded wheat too. We never get it. I know, I do too. Let's give shredded wheat, please.
The etymology of Triscuit is hotly debated by cracker scholars.
For a long time, people assumed tri was in reference to the, is like a prefix for the
three ingredients of Triscuits, which is-
The three squits.
The tree squits. Tree squits the three holy squits the father the son
okay um no it's uh wheat and oil and salt um but this was very recently officially debunked by the
official triscuit Twitter account.
Someone found an old advertisement for Triscuits from 1903.
And this ad is a plate of Triscuits.
Beautiful.
Just sun-kissed Triscuits.
And they are hanging over a beautiful backdrop of Niagara Falls, which is where the Shredded Wheat Company was based.
The Triscuit logo in this ad is stylized to look like cool lightning bolts.
And it has the subtitle, The Electric Baked Biscuit, Baked by Electricity.
So the Tris in Triscuit is for electricity.
Now, what the fuck does that mean?
Yeah.
I don't know.
Do they just run a live wire through a vat of-
I mean, they probably just put it in an oven, right?
An electric oven.
I don't know.
But they advertised it as like,
we are the only food in the world being made with this method.
Our electric cracker.
Our electric cracker.
Which like, I love Triscuits.
I probably would actually even eat them more
if they were called electricity biscuits because that sounds like fun and cool.
I would give away everything in this office for a box of cracked pepper and olive oil Triscuits right now.
There's a lot of stuff in here i'm just wondering i'm picturing almost uh like a whiplash situation
where they wanted to call it electricity biscuit and they realized that was hard to say yeah and
there was just a guy going like faster uh electric biscuit no faster electric skit trick biscuit
faster that's just like babe I have chills right now.
I feel like J.K. Simmons is in the room with me
right now. Not like that.
Nope.
Drum better.
That's what it was, basically.
You missed the drum with the stick. Try again.
It's okay. Triscuit.
Triscuit. Triscuit.
You're free.
That's Triscuit, the electricity biscuit.
Thank you for your service, Nabisco and Henry D. Berkey.
Got some submissions from our friends at home.
Izzy says, my small wonder is my pocket-sized travel espresso machine.
It's powered by pressure built up from the operator pumping it by hand.
I can bring it camping with a little jar of espresso grounds, boil some water,
and then I have an espresso shot in the forest. It's magical. It's called the NanoPress. I can bring it camping with a little jar of espresso grounds, boil some water, and then I have an espresso shot in the forest.
It's magical. It's called the Nanopress.
I like that. Whoa! I'm
into that. I don't even, like, really mess with
espresso that much, but I love gizmos
and gadgets. Yeah. Inexplicably, I
think I did a segment on camping gear.
I don't camp, but it's very exciting to
have special tech, and that's very cool,
Izzy. Hemlock says,
my small wonder is finding the album you want at the used record store.
Every time I go to a record store, I look for the album Songs from the Wood by Jethro Tull.
The other day, I was looking through a box of used records at the store and was just about to mention I was looking for it when, lo and behold, the next record I saw was it.
Very satisfying.
We have been out of this game for a while.
Yeah.
But that is a nice moment.
Yeah.
I remember I was looking for a Judy Sill record yeah and I it was
