1
00:00:00,620 --> 00:00:01,310
Ah,

2
00:00:01,310 --> 00:00:01,990
fuck dry January.

3
00:00:01,990 --> 00:00:03,500
Terrible idea.

4
00:00:03,500 --> 00:00:03,799
Oh,

5
00:00:03,799 --> 00:00:04,620
I'm so cool,

6
00:00:04,620 --> 00:00:06,370
I'm doing dry January.

7
00:00:06,370 --> 00:00:07,000
Idiot!

8
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:11,660
(laughing) (rock music)

9
00:00:18,059 --> 00:00:19,299
Welcome in everybody.

10
00:00:19,300 --> 00:00:22,000
It's the craft beer republic.

11
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:23,530
Thanks for drinking.

12
00:00:23,530 --> 00:00:24,620
Thanks for joining.

13
00:00:24,620 --> 00:00:28,730
No dry January bullshit over here.

14
00:00:28,730 --> 00:00:34,480
I am Greg and I'm getting real romantic tonight because it's just Flexi and I.

15
00:00:34,480 --> 00:00:36,520
We getting soaking wet up in this bitch.

16
00:00:36,519 --> 00:00:37,659
We were,

17
00:00:37,659 --> 00:00:42,309
we were respect I guess the people choosing to do dry January.

18
00:00:42,310 --> 00:00:44,550
Not that it does anything to your health.

19
00:00:44,549 --> 00:00:48,769
Maybe it's like a like a mental willpower strengthening thing,

20
00:00:48,769 --> 00:00:49,750
but not,

21
00:00:49,750 --> 00:00:50,380
not for us.

22
00:00:50,380 --> 00:00:50,859
If anything,

23
00:00:50,859 --> 00:00:55,130
it makes me think you're more of an alcoholic cause you can't moderate.

24
00:00:55,130 --> 00:00:55,899
Yeah.

25
00:00:55,899 --> 00:00:56,179
Well,

26
00:00:56,179 --> 00:00:56,859
yeah.

27
00:00:56,859 --> 00:00:57,899
Yeah.

28
00:00:57,899 --> 00:00:59,780
It's a good way to think about it.

29
00:00:59,780 --> 00:01:00,229
Well,

30
00:01:00,229 --> 00:01:03,009
may this be the wettest January on record.

31
00:01:03,009 --> 00:01:06,060
Slobbering wet drip.

32
00:01:06,060 --> 00:01:06,490
Oh,

33
00:01:06,490 --> 00:01:08,750
if you're still there,

34
00:01:08,750 --> 00:01:13,390
make sure you follow us on the socials that craft beer public.

35
00:01:13,390 --> 00:01:14,379
And of course,

36
00:01:14,379 --> 00:01:18,219
flex me a beer underscores in between crappy republic.com.

37
00:01:18,219 --> 00:01:18,879
It'll five,

38
00:01:18,879 --> 00:01:19,239
five,

39
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:20,020
three beers.

40
00:01:20,020 --> 00:01:22,140
The number to call all that good stuff.

41
00:01:22,140 --> 00:01:23,900
We have a lot to get to.

42
00:01:23,900 --> 00:01:26,159
This is our first spoiler alert.

43
00:01:26,159 --> 00:01:28,599
First recording of the new year.

44
00:01:28,599 --> 00:01:30,859
We did some pre-records holiday.

45
00:01:30,859 --> 00:01:32,109
They're going to be busy.

46
00:01:32,109 --> 00:01:33,819
We knew that they fell on Mondays.

47
00:01:33,819 --> 00:01:36,689
So we were responsible and we pre recorded.

48
00:01:36,689 --> 00:01:38,890
So just in case any of this news is a little old,

49
00:01:38,890 --> 00:01:39,500
you know,

50
00:01:39,500 --> 00:01:42,060
maybe you're hearing it for the first time.

51
00:01:42,060 --> 00:01:42,939
Who knows?

52
00:01:42,939 --> 00:01:44,219
No old news today,

53
00:01:44,219 --> 00:01:45,579
maybe last week's,

54
00:01:45,579 --> 00:01:47,500
but it's all fresh today.

55
00:01:47,500 --> 00:01:48,030
Finally,

56
00:01:48,030 --> 00:01:48,329
fresh,

57
00:01:48,329 --> 00:01:50,219
like the IPA I'm about to tell you about.

58
00:01:50,219 --> 00:01:51,730
So,

59
00:01:51,730 --> 00:01:54,579
so much to talk about before we talk about any of it.

60
00:01:54,579 --> 00:01:56,900
I'm going to talk about talking about,

61
00:01:56,900 --> 00:01:58,540
you stop saying talk.

62
00:01:58,620 --> 00:02:01,019
take a drink every time I do and discuss the show.

63
00:02:01,019 --> 00:02:02,459
All right.

64
00:02:02,459 --> 00:02:09,420
Let me converse about This delectable IPA I'm drinking.

65
00:02:25,750 --> 00:02:26,210
Oh,

66
00:02:26,210 --> 00:02:26,710
well,

67
00:02:26,710 --> 00:02:30,310
thanks to the horrible trips I've been having to take for work.

68
00:02:30,310 --> 00:02:31,310
That's terrible.

69
00:02:31,310 --> 00:02:34,870
But one nice thing is the beer I've been picking up.

70
00:02:34,870 --> 00:02:41,069
And I am drinking Green Cheek Beer Company's Meet You Where You Are.

71
00:02:41,069 --> 00:02:42,709
We love some Green Cheek.

72
00:02:42,710 --> 00:02:43,100
Oh,

73
00:02:43,099 --> 00:02:43,989
so good.

74
00:02:43,990 --> 00:02:44,640
And I tell you,

75
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,889
I keep having to go down to the area where Green Cheek,

76
00:02:46,889 --> 00:02:48,679
one of their locations are and I'm like,

77
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,030
I gotta go down here again.

78
00:02:50,030 --> 00:02:50,770
But I'm always like,

79
00:02:50,770 --> 00:02:51,020
well,

80
00:02:51,020 --> 00:02:54,230
at least I can go have dinner at Green Cheek and pick up some cans to go.

81
00:02:54,229 --> 00:02:54,569
Oh,

82
00:02:54,569 --> 00:02:55,229
food too.

83
00:02:55,229 --> 00:02:55,679
Oh,

84
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:55,840
yeah,

85
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,030
they got some food.

86
00:02:57,030 --> 00:02:57,590
They got,

87
00:02:57,590 --> 00:02:58,229
of course,

88
00:02:58,229 --> 00:02:59,909
the beers and the beers to go.

89
00:02:59,909 --> 00:03:00,699
And it's funny,

90
00:03:00,699 --> 00:03:06,029
one guy walked in when I was eating and attempted
to clean them out of like all of one of the beer.

91
00:03:06,030 --> 00:03:07,550
I don't know which one.

92
00:03:07,550 --> 00:03:08,570
And the guy's like,

93
00:03:08,569 --> 00:03:08,870
hey,

94
00:03:08,870 --> 00:03:09,409
man,

95
00:03:09,409 --> 00:03:10,310
like whatever it was,

96
00:03:10,310 --> 00:03:11,949
10 case max or something.

97
00:03:11,949 --> 00:03:12,429
The guy's like,

98
00:03:12,430 --> 00:03:12,710
come on,

99
00:03:12,710 --> 00:03:12,950
man.

100
00:03:12,949 --> 00:03:14,829
My boss really wanted like all the beers.

101
00:03:14,829 --> 00:03:15,429
And he's like,

102
00:03:15,430 --> 00:03:17,030
we got to save some for the other people.

103
00:03:17,030 --> 00:03:17,479
It's like,

104
00:03:17,479 --> 00:03:18,829
my boss is willing to pay extra.

105
00:03:18,829 --> 00:03:19,609
It's like,

106
00:03:19,610 --> 00:03:20,830
stop it right now.

107
00:03:20,829 --> 00:03:21,169
Yeah,

108
00:03:21,170 --> 00:03:22,060
the guy's like,

109
00:03:22,060 --> 00:03:22,240
hey,

110
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,189
we're just trying to tell some beer.

111
00:03:24,229 --> 00:03:25,750
Like I'm not trying to give you a hard time.

112
00:03:25,750 --> 00:03:26,439
It was like,

113
00:03:26,439 --> 00:03:27,210
my boss said,

114
00:03:27,210 --> 00:03:29,180
come get all the beer and all the beer,

115
00:03:29,180 --> 00:03:31,189
but all of like one specific beer.

116
00:03:31,189 --> 00:03:32,189
Right.

117
00:03:32,189 --> 00:03:33,189
Yeah.

118
00:03:33,189 --> 00:03:33,590
And the guy,

119
00:03:33,590 --> 00:03:34,459
the guy basically was like,

120
00:03:34,459 --> 00:03:36,109
you can have 10 and kicked him out after that.

121
00:03:36,110 --> 00:03:37,270
You think that's got to be enough,

122
00:03:37,269 --> 00:03:37,629
right?

123
00:03:37,629 --> 00:03:38,629
10 cases of one beer.

124
00:03:38,629 --> 00:03:39,629
Yeah.

125
00:03:39,629 --> 00:03:39,849
Well,

126
00:03:39,849 --> 00:03:40,629
what do we do it here?

127
00:03:40,629 --> 00:03:41,870
Pick some different flavors.

128
00:03:41,870 --> 00:03:42,870
Come on.

129
00:03:42,870 --> 00:03:47,430
Or reach out to them personally if you're looking
to spend that much money or buy that much.

130
00:03:47,430 --> 00:03:47,730
Yeah,

131
00:03:47,730 --> 00:03:49,590
I'm sure they'd set something up for you.

132
00:03:49,590 --> 00:03:50,829
But anyways,

133
00:03:50,829 --> 00:03:56,310
the beer I'm drinking 8.9% starting the wet January off right.

134
00:03:56,310 --> 00:04:00,550
4.32 on untapped with over 1100 ratings.

135
00:04:00,550 --> 00:04:04,850
And they say layered with old fashioned oats and raw white wheat.

136
00:04:04,849 --> 00:04:10,269
We hit the dry hop with a super dope blend
of New Zealand and Pacific Northwest hops.

137
00:04:10,269 --> 00:04:20,870
The beer has an awesome fruit character that comes across super juicy and lots
of honeydew and a bit of orange creamsicle and even a squeeze of Sauv blanc.

138
00:04:20,870 --> 00:04:21,529
Oh,

139
00:04:21,529 --> 00:04:22,889
fancy.

140
00:04:22,889 --> 00:04:24,789
I'm classy as I drink this shit.

141
00:04:24,790 --> 00:04:26,220
Pinkies up,

142
00:04:26,220 --> 00:04:27,270
bitch.

143
00:04:27,269 --> 00:04:28,349
On the schnauz,

144
00:04:28,350 --> 00:04:30,270
I'm getting tropical notes.

145
00:04:30,269 --> 00:04:31,329
I'm getting like,

146
00:04:31,329 --> 00:04:34,430
I almost want to say like a papaya mango-y vibe going on,

147
00:04:34,430 --> 00:04:36,750
which is not in their description at all.

148
00:04:36,750 --> 00:04:38,230
So maybe my nose is broken.

149
00:04:38,230 --> 00:04:38,770
Yeah,

150
00:04:38,769 --> 00:04:40,139
on the tongue jobber,

151
00:04:40,139 --> 00:04:43,550
I really get that orange creamsicle in a good way.

152
00:04:43,550 --> 00:04:46,430
Not in like a sweet popsicle kind of way.

153
00:04:46,430 --> 00:04:48,430
Disgusting lactose-y super sweet way.

154
00:04:48,430 --> 00:04:48,730
Yeah,

155
00:04:48,730 --> 00:04:50,030
there's no lactose in here.

156
00:04:50,029 --> 00:04:50,659
But yeah,

157
00:04:50,659 --> 00:04:52,589
that orange creamsicle really comes through.

158
00:04:52,590 --> 00:04:54,090
I don't so much pick up the Sauv blanc,

159
00:04:54,090 --> 00:04:58,670
maybe on the back end because it's got some
of that dryness that a Sauv blanc might have.

160
00:04:58,669 --> 00:04:59,750
But not so much on the flavor.

161
00:04:59,750 --> 00:05:01,240
But God damn,

162
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:02,909
this is good.

163
00:05:02,909 --> 00:05:08,789
Their hazies are really up there with like the pure murkies and stuff like that.

164
00:05:08,789 --> 00:05:09,789
I dig it.

165
00:05:09,789 --> 00:05:11,589
I'm enjoying this quite a bit.

166
00:05:11,590 --> 00:05:18,190
So cheers to Green Cheek and cheers for making
my shitty trips down there slightly less shitty.

167
00:05:18,189 --> 00:05:21,110
And I'm sure that 8.9% is going to treat you well.

168
00:05:21,110 --> 00:05:22,860
It's not going to do me wrong,

169
00:05:22,860 --> 00:05:23,949
I tell you that.

170
00:05:23,949 --> 00:05:25,509
Helping to keep January wet.

171
00:05:25,509 --> 00:05:26,509
Would you say slobbering?

172
00:05:26,509 --> 00:05:27,509
Slobbering.

173
00:05:27,509 --> 00:05:31,470
The grossest thing I've ever heard.

174
00:05:31,470 --> 00:05:31,759
Dude,

175
00:05:31,759 --> 00:05:32,470
it's so gross.

176
00:05:32,470 --> 00:05:35,030
Only thing worse than that is moist.

177
00:05:35,029 --> 00:05:36,629
I was just going to say that,

178
00:05:36,629 --> 00:05:37,990
like moist January.

179
00:05:37,990 --> 00:05:40,189
Does moist bother you as a word?

180
00:05:40,519 --> 00:05:42,589
There's not a lot of words that bother me.

181
00:05:42,590 --> 00:05:43,590
Me neither.

182
00:05:43,590 --> 00:05:44,590
So many people it bothers.

183
00:05:44,590 --> 00:05:45,300
It doesn't,

184
00:05:45,300 --> 00:05:45,850
whatever,

185
00:05:45,850 --> 00:05:46,590
it's moist.

186
00:05:46,590 --> 00:05:46,960
Yeah,

187
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:47,910
like whatever.

188
00:05:47,909 --> 00:05:48,909
Sometimes you get moist.

189
00:05:48,909 --> 00:05:49,240
Yeah,

190
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:49,909
it happens.

191
00:05:49,909 --> 00:05:50,909
Clammy?

192
00:05:50,909 --> 00:05:51,909
What do you want me to say?

193
00:05:51,909 --> 00:05:53,549
If anything,

194
00:05:53,550 --> 00:05:58,149
I'd be like clammy sounds even worse.

195
00:05:58,149 --> 00:05:59,149
That implies a smell.

196
00:05:59,149 --> 00:06:00,149
Do you think so?

197
00:06:00,149 --> 00:06:00,870
Yeah,

198
00:06:00,870 --> 00:06:01,810
when you say like,

199
00:06:01,810 --> 00:06:02,090
"Oh,

200
00:06:02,090 --> 00:06:04,870
I'm a little clammy down there." I'm thinking like,

201
00:06:04,870 --> 00:06:05,120
"Oh man,

202
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:06,090
you sweat a little hard." Oh,

203
00:06:06,090 --> 00:06:06,990
you're thinking clammy down there.

204
00:06:06,990 --> 00:06:08,990
I'm thinking like clammy palms.

205
00:06:09,029 --> 00:06:09,529
Yeah,

206
00:06:09,529 --> 00:06:12,589
even that has like a connotation to it.

207
00:06:12,590 --> 00:06:15,230
And then you throw up your mom's spaghetti and...

208
00:06:15,230 --> 00:06:18,190
Bad night in the bathroom.

209
00:06:18,189 --> 00:06:19,189
Yeah.

210
00:06:19,189 --> 00:06:20,180
So anyways,

211
00:06:20,180 --> 00:06:20,539
oh,

212
00:06:20,539 --> 00:06:21,189
beer.

213
00:06:21,189 --> 00:06:21,769
Hey,

214
00:06:21,769 --> 00:06:23,709
speaking of coming back after the holidays,

215
00:06:23,710 --> 00:06:25,509
how was your holidays?

216
00:06:25,509 --> 00:06:27,149
So work was nuts.

217
00:06:27,149 --> 00:06:27,519
Work,

218
00:06:27,519 --> 00:06:27,939
work,

219
00:06:27,939 --> 00:06:28,259
work,

220
00:06:28,259 --> 00:06:28,629
work,

221
00:06:28,629 --> 00:06:29,149
work.

222
00:06:29,149 --> 00:06:31,589
Lots of people need your meat.

223
00:06:31,590 --> 00:06:32,750
Yes.

224
00:06:32,750 --> 00:06:36,250
I served so much meat to so many people.

225
00:06:36,250 --> 00:06:39,870
We had like one day off in 15 days.

226
00:06:39,870 --> 00:06:40,870
Jesus.

227
00:06:40,870 --> 00:06:43,389
Like everybody in the shop.

228
00:06:43,389 --> 00:06:44,449
What's the big meat,

229
00:06:44,449 --> 00:06:46,389
like ham or what is every coming for?

230
00:06:46,389 --> 00:06:47,389
Prime rib roast.

231
00:06:47,389 --> 00:06:47,910
Oh,

232
00:06:47,910 --> 00:06:49,629
makes sense.

233
00:06:49,629 --> 00:06:53,389
So that's like the number one Christmas meal.

234
00:06:53,389 --> 00:06:57,189
New Year's is just any kind of steak cut basically.

235
00:06:57,189 --> 00:07:00,110
So absolutely insane amount of work.

236
00:07:00,110 --> 00:07:03,310
I loved it every second of it though.

237
00:07:03,379 --> 00:07:05,740
It's just a fucking blast just running around,

238
00:07:05,740 --> 00:07:06,839
helping people out,

239
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:07,720
filling stuff,

240
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,189
cutting stuff.

241
00:07:09,189 --> 00:07:12,540
It's like you don't even think about the day being work,

242
00:07:12,540 --> 00:07:19,350
especially with a bunch of guys who are essentially just
all your buddies and everybody working well together.

243
00:07:19,350 --> 00:07:21,290
So work was stressful,

244
00:07:21,290 --> 00:07:22,209
but fun.

245
00:07:22,209 --> 00:07:27,350
The holidays themselves were extremely
relaxing between Christmas and New Year's.

246
00:07:27,350 --> 00:07:28,350
Nice.

247
00:07:28,350 --> 00:07:31,149
I did get a little bit rowdy on Christmas Eve.

248
00:07:31,149 --> 00:07:32,430
Oh.

249
00:07:32,430 --> 00:07:37,149
Because we closed the shop an hour early on Christmas Eve.

250
00:07:37,149 --> 00:07:40,350
So we shut down at three o'clock and me and some of the guys,

251
00:07:40,350 --> 00:07:45,870
we have this after work ritual of playing blackjack and having a beer.

252
00:07:45,870 --> 00:07:46,870
All right.

253
00:07:46,870 --> 00:07:47,949
I like it.

254
00:07:47,949 --> 00:07:49,379
Because it was Christmas,

255
00:07:49,379 --> 00:07:50,990
you have the long work week.

256
00:07:50,990 --> 00:07:52,389
Everybody puts in all the hours.

257
00:07:52,389 --> 00:07:53,389
We're all tired.

258
00:07:53,389 --> 00:07:56,790
They bust out a bottle of Elijah Craig.

259
00:07:56,790 --> 00:07:58,009
We took a couple,

260
00:07:58,009 --> 00:08:01,589
there's this IPA locally by Ray's Grain Brewing.

261
00:08:01,620 --> 00:08:02,589
It's called Naked Threesome.

262
00:08:02,589 --> 00:08:03,589
I like it.

263
00:08:03,589 --> 00:08:06,029
Seven and a half percent ABV.

264
00:08:06,029 --> 00:08:08,029
Took a couple four packs of those off the shelf.

265
00:08:08,029 --> 00:08:10,079
So we're just rearing to go,

266
00:08:10,079 --> 00:08:11,470
gambling our hearts out.

267
00:08:11,470 --> 00:08:16,509
And I realized my family's coming over in 20 minutes.

268
00:08:16,509 --> 00:08:18,829
So I had two pours of bourbon.

269
00:08:18,829 --> 00:08:21,740
I had two seven and a half percenters,

270
00:08:21,740 --> 00:08:24,509
all in the span of about 40 minutes.

271
00:08:24,509 --> 00:08:25,509
Wow.

272
00:08:25,509 --> 00:08:26,509
So daddy's feeling good.

273
00:08:26,509 --> 00:08:27,509
Yeah.

274
00:08:27,509 --> 00:08:28,509
Drunk daddy.

275
00:08:28,509 --> 00:08:28,870
So I'm in,

276
00:08:28,870 --> 00:08:29,509
quick shower.

277
00:08:29,509 --> 00:08:36,710
My folks and my brothers come over and I end up having
like three or four more beers while they're there.

278
00:08:36,710 --> 00:08:37,710
Right.

279
00:08:37,710 --> 00:08:38,750
So total count now,

280
00:08:38,750 --> 00:08:39,379
six beers,

281
00:08:39,379 --> 00:08:40,519
two pours of bourbon,

282
00:08:40,519 --> 00:08:41,990
ship them out the house,

283
00:08:41,990 --> 00:08:43,430
get family Christmas pictures done,

284
00:08:43,430 --> 00:08:43,820
you know,

285
00:08:43,819 --> 00:08:44,509
with the pajamas.

286
00:08:44,509 --> 00:08:45,670
Cause my wife loves,

287
00:08:45,670 --> 00:08:46,000
you know,

288
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:46,750
trendy shit.

289
00:08:46,750 --> 00:08:49,309
Love her to death.

290
00:08:49,309 --> 00:08:50,629
Put the kids to bed.

291
00:08:50,629 --> 00:08:52,589
And then I play Santa Claus.

292
00:08:52,589 --> 00:08:53,309
You know,

293
00:08:53,309 --> 00:08:56,329
I have to build the kids shit that they get.

294
00:08:56,329 --> 00:08:58,669
So it's all ready for the next morning under the tree.

295
00:08:58,670 --> 00:09:00,480
So naturally while I'm doing this,

296
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:01,670
I have another beer.

297
00:09:01,670 --> 00:09:03,190
So we're up to seven beers,

298
00:09:03,190 --> 00:09:04,430
two pours of bourbon.

299
00:09:04,430 --> 00:09:07,110
And a partridge in a can.

300
00:09:07,110 --> 00:09:08,309
I like that.

301
00:09:08,309 --> 00:09:09,929
So then the wife and I flip flop,

302
00:09:09,930 --> 00:09:10,430
right?

303
00:09:10,430 --> 00:09:12,190
I get these toys put together.

304
00:09:12,190 --> 00:09:13,690
She starts drinking.

305
00:09:13,690 --> 00:09:16,509
I head back upstairs in case the kids wake up.

306
00:09:16,509 --> 00:09:17,980
She comes downstairs,

307
00:09:17,980 --> 00:09:18,629
you know,

308
00:09:18,629 --> 00:09:20,170
throws the cookies out,

309
00:09:20,170 --> 00:09:21,400
pours the milk out,

310
00:09:21,399 --> 00:09:21,829
gets,

311
00:09:21,829 --> 00:09:22,529
you know,

312
00:09:22,529 --> 00:09:23,450
our Santa stuff,

313
00:09:23,450 --> 00:09:23,950
you know,

314
00:09:23,950 --> 00:09:26,750
cause every year everybody gets one present from Santa,

315
00:09:26,750 --> 00:09:27,379
you know,

316
00:09:27,379 --> 00:09:32,309
then she went back upstairs and I went back downstairs
cause there was some football game going on.

317
00:09:32,309 --> 00:09:33,309
No.

318
00:09:33,309 --> 00:09:34,309
Right.

319
00:09:34,309 --> 00:09:35,309
So it's just all this flip flop rotation.

320
00:09:35,309 --> 00:09:36,309
Yeah.

321
00:09:36,309 --> 00:09:36,529
Well,

322
00:09:36,529 --> 00:09:37,129
court naturally,

323
00:09:37,129 --> 00:09:37,430
I'm like,

324
00:09:37,430 --> 00:09:37,680
Hey,

325
00:09:37,680 --> 00:09:37,860
well,

326
00:09:37,860 --> 00:09:38,870
I'm watching end of the game.

327
00:09:38,870 --> 00:09:40,470
I might as well have another beer.

328
00:09:40,470 --> 00:09:41,079
Oh,

329
00:09:41,079 --> 00:09:41,279
well,

330
00:09:41,279 --> 00:09:43,339
now we're at eight beers,

331
00:09:43,339 --> 00:09:44,869
two pours of bourbon.

332
00:09:44,870 --> 00:09:46,269
I wake up the next morning.

333
00:09:46,299 --> 00:09:53,109
I don't remember going back downstairs into the
basement after building like the kids toys.

334
00:09:53,110 --> 00:09:55,629
I am like sweaty.

335
00:09:55,629 --> 00:09:57,149
My head is pounding.

336
00:09:57,149 --> 00:10:00,089
I'm trying to figure out what the hell happened.

337
00:10:00,089 --> 00:10:03,069
My wife makes cinnamon rolls for breakfast for all of us.

338
00:10:03,069 --> 00:10:08,990
And I'm just taking the smallest nibbles of these
cinnamon rolls because my stomach is just turning.

339
00:10:08,990 --> 00:10:09,509
Come on,

340
00:10:09,509 --> 00:10:09,990
flex.

341
00:10:09,990 --> 00:10:10,990
All together.

342
00:10:10,990 --> 00:10:11,990
Hold it.

343
00:10:11,990 --> 00:10:14,649
All I'm thinking to myself is you can't puke on Christmas.

344
00:10:14,649 --> 00:10:16,950
You just can't puke on Christmas.

345
00:10:16,950 --> 00:10:19,509
Everybody's going to know how drunk you actually were yesterday.

346
00:10:19,509 --> 00:10:22,990
You can not puke on Christmas.

347
00:10:22,990 --> 00:10:24,750
So long story short,

348
00:10:24,750 --> 00:10:25,990
I held it in.

349
00:10:25,990 --> 00:10:26,250
Oh,

350
00:10:26,250 --> 00:10:27,990
I was waiting for a puke talk.

351
00:10:27,990 --> 00:10:28,490
No,

352
00:10:28,490 --> 00:10:32,430
I recovered through all the cinnamon rolls.

353
00:10:32,430 --> 00:10:34,070
We have a book.

354
00:10:34,069 --> 00:10:36,569
I even got a workout in.

355
00:10:36,569 --> 00:10:38,250
God damn.

356
00:10:38,250 --> 00:10:39,250
Lovely Christmas.

357
00:10:39,250 --> 00:10:40,250
That's awesome.

358
00:10:40,250 --> 00:10:41,250
Couldn't have been better.

359
00:10:41,250 --> 00:10:42,250
It really couldn't.

360
00:10:42,250 --> 00:10:43,710
And how early were you in bed for New Year's Eve?

361
00:10:43,710 --> 00:10:50,190
So I had hopes.

362
00:10:50,190 --> 00:10:51,190
Listen to this.

363
00:10:51,190 --> 00:10:51,640
So you know,

364
00:10:51,639 --> 00:10:52,190
I'm an old man.

365
00:10:52,190 --> 00:10:53,509
Most people out here know,

366
00:10:53,509 --> 00:10:54,069
you know,

367
00:10:54,069 --> 00:11:00,069
I go to bed about 830 PM on a regular night and the
Packers played the late game on New Year's Eve.

368
00:11:00,070 --> 00:11:00,389
Oh,

369
00:11:00,389 --> 00:11:01,070
right.

370
00:11:01,070 --> 00:11:02,029
So I was like,

371
00:11:02,029 --> 00:11:02,429
hey,

372
00:11:02,429 --> 00:11:04,230
720 Packer game.

373
00:11:04,230 --> 00:11:05,909
The game should go to at least 1030.

374
00:11:05,909 --> 00:11:06,279
I'll be,

375
00:11:06,279 --> 00:11:06,909
I'll be golden.

376
00:11:06,909 --> 00:11:08,389
You'd be halfway there.

377
00:11:08,450 --> 00:11:12,149
I was about 930 and I don't remember 930.

378
00:11:12,149 --> 00:11:17,340
And then my wife yells at me at 1030 and says,

379
00:11:17,340 --> 00:11:19,429
just go upstairs.

380
00:11:19,429 --> 00:11:21,990
So technically I made it till 1030.

381
00:11:21,990 --> 00:11:22,990
Nice.

382
00:11:22,990 --> 00:11:23,990
But didn't.

383
00:11:23,990 --> 00:11:25,669
For those of you playing flex bingo.

384
00:11:25,669 --> 00:11:26,669
Yeah.

385
00:11:26,669 --> 00:11:28,429
I didn't catch the Packer game.

386
00:11:28,429 --> 00:11:29,429
The end of it.

387
00:11:29,429 --> 00:11:29,570
I,

388
00:11:29,570 --> 00:11:29,919
you know,

389
00:11:29,919 --> 00:11:30,289
and they,

390
00:11:30,289 --> 00:11:30,659
they won,

391
00:11:30,659 --> 00:11:30,990
I think,

392
00:11:30,990 --> 00:11:31,480
you know,

393
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:31,750
and yeah,

394
00:11:31,750 --> 00:11:32,220
but you know,

395
00:11:32,220 --> 00:11:32,990
it was nice.

396
00:11:32,990 --> 00:11:34,990
A lot of work put in that week though.

397
00:11:34,990 --> 00:11:36,350
So I was pretty tired.

398
00:11:36,350 --> 00:11:36,960
You deserved it,

399
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:37,350
big boy.

400
00:11:37,350 --> 00:11:38,350
I did.

401
00:11:38,350 --> 00:11:39,350
I did.

402
00:11:39,350 --> 00:11:40,350
Yeah.

403
00:11:40,350 --> 00:11:41,350
Holidays were great.

404
00:11:41,350 --> 00:11:42,350
What about yours?

405
00:11:42,350 --> 00:11:43,350
How were they?

406
00:11:43,350 --> 00:11:43,490
Um,

407
00:11:43,490 --> 00:11:44,350
Christmas was fantastic.

408
00:11:44,350 --> 00:11:49,350
It was one of the easiest Christmases I've had in
a long time because some family wasn't around.

409
00:11:49,350 --> 00:11:51,429
Some family had COVID and I've,

410
00:11:51,429 --> 00:11:53,590
I think I've said this before.

411
00:11:53,590 --> 00:11:57,750
My wife and I both come from divorced families
and Christmas and right around Christmas,

412
00:11:57,750 --> 00:12:01,830
we ended up at like 9 million houses or events or whatever.

413
00:12:01,830 --> 00:12:02,289
Right,

414
00:12:02,289 --> 00:12:02,830
right.

415
00:12:02,830 --> 00:12:03,070
My,

416
00:12:03,070 --> 00:12:05,029
my biggest year I counted no joke.

417
00:12:05,029 --> 00:12:05,309
Uh,

418
00:12:05,309 --> 00:12:08,309
within four days I was at nine different places.

419
00:12:08,309 --> 00:12:09,309
That's disgusting.

420
00:12:09,309 --> 00:12:10,309
Nobody deserves that.

421
00:12:10,309 --> 00:12:11,309
No.

422
00:12:11,309 --> 00:12:12,309
And I swore that off.

423
00:12:12,309 --> 00:12:12,600
I said,

424
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:13,309
fuck everybody.

425
00:12:13,309 --> 00:12:14,870
I'm not doing that many ever again.

426
00:12:14,870 --> 00:12:15,289
Well,

427
00:12:15,289 --> 00:12:21,269
between COVID and trips and all this other
shit ended up at one place Christmas day.

428
00:12:21,269 --> 00:12:21,750
And uh,

429
00:12:21,750 --> 00:12:24,240
I don't like doing the traditional like,

430
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:24,590
Hey,

431
00:12:24,590 --> 00:12:26,470
ham and Turkey or whatever.

432
00:12:26,470 --> 00:12:27,960
I usually do most of the cooking when I'm,

433
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,389
when I'm doing Christmas and Thanksgiving dinners over at my mom's house.

434
00:12:31,389 --> 00:12:33,470
And she'd do the tri tip.

435
00:12:33,470 --> 00:12:34,710
So I did that for Thanksgiving.

436
00:12:34,710 --> 00:12:35,220
So I talked to him,

437
00:12:35,220 --> 00:12:35,539
I was like,

438
00:12:35,539 --> 00:12:35,730
what,

439
00:12:35,730 --> 00:12:36,909
you want to do something different?

440
00:12:36,909 --> 00:12:42,669
Are you guys Jones and for some tri tip at
Jones and nice Jones and for the Jones tip.

441
00:12:42,669 --> 00:12:43,259
Hey,

442
00:12:43,259 --> 00:12:43,769
oh,

443
00:12:43,769 --> 00:12:43,970
uh,

444
00:12:43,970 --> 00:12:44,899
and they were like,

445
00:12:44,899 --> 00:12:45,169
Hey,

446
00:12:45,169 --> 00:12:45,500
yeah,

447
00:12:45,500 --> 00:12:46,750
whatever you want to do.

448
00:12:46,750 --> 00:12:48,230
It was like super helpful.

449
00:12:48,230 --> 00:12:49,230
So I thought about it.

450
00:12:49,230 --> 00:12:49,649
I was like,

451
00:12:49,649 --> 00:12:50,230
what can I do?

452
00:12:50,230 --> 00:12:51,710
I think it ended up being like 14 people or something.

453
00:12:51,710 --> 00:12:52,179
I was like,

454
00:12:52,179 --> 00:12:53,710
what can I do easy for 14 people?

455
00:12:53,710 --> 00:12:54,710
It sounds good.

456
00:12:54,710 --> 00:12:55,710
Haven't done it before.

457
00:12:55,710 --> 00:12:58,190
I did lasagna.

458
00:12:58,190 --> 00:12:59,190
Interesting.

459
00:12:59,190 --> 00:13:00,429
Making Mel proud,

460
00:13:00,429 --> 00:13:01,870
had a pasta course.

461
00:13:01,870 --> 00:13:03,389
What an interesting choice.

462
00:13:03,389 --> 00:13:04,389
Yeah.

463
00:13:04,389 --> 00:13:07,750
And anything fancy with the lasagna?

464
00:13:07,750 --> 00:13:08,220
I mean,

465
00:13:08,220 --> 00:13:09,429
I made the sauce myself,

466
00:13:09,429 --> 00:13:10,679
no store bought sauce,

467
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:11,590
a homemade sauce,

468
00:13:11,590 --> 00:13:12,190
you know,

469
00:13:12,190 --> 00:13:13,509
did some sausage in there,

470
00:13:13,509 --> 00:13:16,350
but all the essentials were caught all that good shit.

471
00:13:16,350 --> 00:13:17,350
Okay.

472
00:13:17,350 --> 00:13:19,309
Made it a tinge spicy with the sausage.

473
00:13:19,309 --> 00:13:21,590
It's like a spicier sausage at a little,

474
00:13:21,590 --> 00:13:22,179
you know,

475
00:13:22,179 --> 00:13:24,389
paprika and cayenne to up the heat.

476
00:13:24,389 --> 00:13:24,669
Just,

477
00:13:24,669 --> 00:13:25,090
you know,

478
00:13:25,090 --> 00:13:26,269
not to like blow anybody out,

479
00:13:26,269 --> 00:13:27,710
but just to make it interesting.

480
00:13:27,710 --> 00:13:28,710
Right.

481
00:13:28,710 --> 00:13:28,909
Um,

482
00:13:28,909 --> 00:13:29,370
you know,

483
00:13:29,370 --> 00:13:33,710
did some green beans with like pomegranates
on them and shit like that to look best of.

484
00:13:33,710 --> 00:13:34,360
But yeah,

485
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:34,789
the,

486
00:13:34,789 --> 00:13:37,629
I gotta say the lasagna came out pretty good.

487
00:13:37,629 --> 00:13:38,629
I like that.

488
00:13:38,629 --> 00:13:39,629
That's so different.

489
00:13:39,629 --> 00:13:40,629
Yeah.

490
00:13:40,629 --> 00:13:40,809
I just,

491
00:13:40,809 --> 00:13:41,049
you know,

492
00:13:41,049 --> 00:13:41,700
I'm sure Mel's like,

493
00:13:41,700 --> 00:13:43,350
maybe cause I'm not Italian,

494
00:13:43,350 --> 00:13:43,789
but right.

495
00:13:43,789 --> 00:13:44,279
I mean,

496
00:13:44,279 --> 00:13:44,789
yeah.

497
00:13:44,789 --> 00:13:45,100
I mean,

498
00:13:45,100 --> 00:13:45,590
Mel's like,

499
00:13:45,590 --> 00:13:47,230
that's every fucking holiday you loser.

500
00:13:47,230 --> 00:13:48,230
Right.

501
00:13:48,230 --> 00:13:48,929
You have to have like,

502
00:13:48,929 --> 00:13:50,309
that's probably an appetizer for that.

503
00:13:50,309 --> 00:13:51,309
Right.

504
00:13:51,309 --> 00:13:52,309
That's just one course.

505
00:13:52,309 --> 00:13:53,309
Yeah.

506
00:13:53,309 --> 00:13:55,110
You have the pasta course and then you have the lasagna appetizer.

507
00:13:55,110 --> 00:13:56,110
Right.

508
00:13:56,110 --> 00:13:57,110
Yeah.

509
00:13:57,110 --> 00:13:58,110
That's just a side.

510
00:13:58,110 --> 00:14:01,950
It's like a main of spaghetti and meatballs and a side of lasagna.

511
00:14:01,950 --> 00:14:02,950
Right.

512
00:14:02,950 --> 00:14:04,509
The other side is bread.

513
00:14:04,509 --> 00:14:04,960
So yeah,

514
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:05,830
so that was nice.

515
00:14:05,830 --> 00:14:06,830
It was easy.

516
00:14:06,830 --> 00:14:07,529
And then,

517
00:14:07,529 --> 00:14:07,740
uh,

518
00:14:07,740 --> 00:14:08,929
for new year's Eve,

519
00:14:08,929 --> 00:14:11,269
we went up to a couple of friends house,

520
00:14:11,269 --> 00:14:12,110
a couple,

521
00:14:12,110 --> 00:14:12,789
they are a couple,

522
00:14:12,789 --> 00:14:13,990
not just a couple of friends.

523
00:14:13,990 --> 00:14:15,269
We hung out at their house.

524
00:14:15,269 --> 00:14:15,820
They,

525
00:14:15,820 --> 00:14:17,909
we both like this winery a lot.

526
00:14:17,909 --> 00:14:20,750
It's Austin Hope winery or vineyards or whatever the fuck.

527
00:14:20,750 --> 00:14:21,289
Anyways,

528
00:14:21,289 --> 00:14:23,350
they had three years of their caps off.

529
00:14:23,350 --> 00:14:23,649
Like,

530
00:14:23,649 --> 00:14:23,840
Hey,

531
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:24,350
come on up.

532
00:14:24,350 --> 00:14:25,350
We'll do a vertical.

533
00:14:25,350 --> 00:14:27,799
So we got sciencey on new year's Eve and like with wine,

534
00:14:27,799 --> 00:14:28,600
vertical wine,

535
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:29,429
vertical wine.

536
00:14:29,429 --> 00:14:30,429
Yeah.

537
00:14:30,429 --> 00:14:31,429
And it was actually fun.

538
00:14:31,429 --> 00:14:32,429
It was three years of a cab.

539
00:14:32,429 --> 00:14:38,149
It had a fire up there and that year was like super smoky as one might expect.

540
00:14:38,149 --> 00:14:39,870
And the other years were not.

541
00:14:39,870 --> 00:14:41,669
And after it was open for like three hours,

542
00:14:41,669 --> 00:14:43,389
the smoke had completely dissipated.

543
00:14:43,389 --> 00:14:45,860
And so we just did a little vertical of that and you know,

544
00:14:45,860 --> 00:14:46,590
got our buzz on,

545
00:14:46,590 --> 00:14:47,769
played some games,

546
00:14:47,769 --> 00:14:48,549
all that shit.

547
00:14:48,549 --> 00:14:49,549
Did you try it?

548
00:14:49,549 --> 00:14:50,009
And was it,

549
00:14:50,009 --> 00:14:51,029
was it smoky at first?

550
00:14:51,029 --> 00:14:52,029
Yeah.

551
00:14:52,029 --> 00:14:53,159
When you first opened it,

552
00:14:53,159 --> 00:14:53,769
it was like,

553
00:14:53,769 --> 00:14:54,179
Whoa,

554
00:14:54,179 --> 00:14:54,490
you know,

555
00:14:54,490 --> 00:14:57,190
licking a burnt ashtray or something like that.

556
00:14:57,190 --> 00:14:58,190
Wow.

557
00:14:58,190 --> 00:14:59,190
Wow.

558
00:14:59,190 --> 00:15:00,590
And then especially on the nose,

559
00:15:00,590 --> 00:15:01,990
like the nose was super smoky.

560
00:15:01,990 --> 00:15:03,250
And then the more it sat,

561
00:15:03,250 --> 00:15:04,549
the less smoky it got.

562
00:15:04,549 --> 00:15:06,070
It was kind of cool.

563
00:15:06,070 --> 00:15:07,070
Classic California.

564
00:15:07,070 --> 00:15:11,190
Doesn't get more California than that.

565
00:15:11,190 --> 00:15:11,649
Right,

566
00:15:11,649 --> 00:15:12,190
right.

567
00:15:12,190 --> 00:15:12,370
So,

568
00:15:12,370 --> 00:15:12,720
but Hey,

569
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:13,340
not a wine show,

570
00:15:13,340 --> 00:15:14,950
not a wine show.

571
00:15:16,049 --> 00:15:19,609
But I also had a couple of days off around the holidays,

572
00:15:19,610 --> 00:15:21,529
had to burn some PTO,

573
00:15:21,529 --> 00:15:23,579
and the wife did not.

574
00:15:23,580 --> 00:15:26,129
And so I signed up for Uber Eats.

575
00:15:26,129 --> 00:15:26,539
Don't say it,

576
00:15:26,539 --> 00:15:27,009
Jim Membership.

577
00:15:27,009 --> 00:15:27,330
Oh,

578
00:15:27,330 --> 00:15:28,610
no.

579
00:15:29,029 --> 00:15:31,519
I signed up to deliver for Uber Eats.

580
00:15:31,519 --> 00:15:31,840
I was like,

581
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:33,490
let's see what this is all about.

582
00:15:33,490 --> 00:15:34,370
For real.

583
00:15:34,370 --> 00:15:34,889
I was like,

584
00:15:34,889 --> 00:15:36,199
let's see what it's about.

585
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:37,180
Worst case scenario,

586
00:15:37,179 --> 00:15:39,000
I do it for a day and I never do it again.

587
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:39,539
You know,

588
00:15:39,539 --> 00:15:40,389
like what's,

589
00:15:40,389 --> 00:15:41,480
what's the big deal?

590
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:42,800
So I signed up.

591
00:15:42,799 --> 00:15:43,659
Honestly,

592
00:15:43,659 --> 00:15:44,649
it's kind of fun.

593
00:15:44,649 --> 00:15:48,399
Like they're not sponsoring the show.

594
00:15:48,399 --> 00:15:49,980
It's a lot like,

595
00:15:49,980 --> 00:15:50,220
um,

596
00:15:50,220 --> 00:15:53,370
like playing a game on your phone,

597
00:15:53,370 --> 00:15:55,200
except you have to drive.

598
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:55,629
You know,

599
00:15:55,629 --> 00:15:56,129
it's like,

600
00:15:56,129 --> 00:15:56,450
do this,

601
00:15:56,450 --> 00:15:56,820
do this,

602
00:15:56,820 --> 00:15:58,180
complete this picture here.

603
00:15:58,179 --> 00:15:58,599
You know,

604
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:02,139
it's just like playing a game and you drive around and drop shit off.

605
00:16:02,139 --> 00:16:06,480
So I've had some really good nights where I
made like 80 bucks in two hours kind of nights.

606
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,789
I had some really shitty nights where I made like 25 bucks and you know,

607
00:16:09,789 --> 00:16:10,389
two hours,

608
00:16:10,389 --> 00:16:12,399
like not even making a minimum wage.

609
00:16:12,399 --> 00:16:14,409
I can't believe you actually did this.

610
00:16:14,409 --> 00:16:15,159
Yeah.

611
00:16:15,159 --> 00:16:16,159
It's fun.

612
00:16:16,159 --> 00:16:16,389
So,

613
00:16:16,389 --> 00:16:16,689
uh,

614
00:16:16,690 --> 00:16:21,280
we'll see how long I actually stick with it now
that I'm back to normal work and all that stuff.

615
00:16:21,279 --> 00:16:21,559
But,

616
00:16:21,559 --> 00:16:22,189
right.

617
00:16:22,190 --> 00:16:22,300
But,

618
00:16:22,299 --> 00:16:22,519
uh,

619
00:16:22,519 --> 00:16:22,939
yeah,

620
00:16:22,940 --> 00:16:23,520
it's fun.

621
00:16:23,519 --> 00:16:25,470
And a couple of nights the wife just went with me.

622
00:16:25,470 --> 00:16:25,779
I mean,

623
00:16:25,779 --> 00:16:26,939
like I'm not driving people.

624
00:16:26,940 --> 00:16:28,880
I don't want people in my car.

625
00:16:28,879 --> 00:16:29,120
Fuck.

626
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:29,360
Yeah.

627
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:30,120
You're not like a taxi.

628
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:30,529
Right.

629
00:16:30,529 --> 00:16:30,879
Right.

630
00:16:30,879 --> 00:16:31,960
And just dropping out food.

631
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,080
So sometimes she'll go with me and sit in the passenger seat.

632
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:34,400
We'll just,

633
00:16:34,399 --> 00:16:36,759
we'll just talk and drive around and chill.

634
00:16:36,759 --> 00:16:42,069
Like there's sometimes you get multiple orders from one place
to like three different houses and she'll keep the orders and,

635
00:16:42,069 --> 00:16:42,939
and you know,

636
00:16:42,940 --> 00:16:45,770
tracked for me and had to get out of the car.

637
00:16:45,769 --> 00:16:46,399
So yeah.

638
00:16:46,399 --> 00:16:46,789
God,

639
00:16:46,789 --> 00:16:47,169
Lee,

640
00:16:47,169 --> 00:16:48,609
it's adorable.

641
00:16:48,610 --> 00:16:50,680
So that was our crazy holiday.

642
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:51,420
You know,

643
00:16:51,419 --> 00:16:52,219
good times.

644
00:16:52,220 --> 00:16:52,490
Well,

645
00:16:52,490 --> 00:16:53,620
I'll tell you what,

646
00:16:53,620 --> 00:16:55,319
I'm not going to try that.

647
00:16:55,319 --> 00:16:56,319
Um,

648
00:16:56,319 --> 00:16:59,309
I know everyone I've told so far is like,

649
00:16:59,309 --> 00:17:00,439
you did what?

650
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:01,310
I was like,

651
00:17:01,309 --> 00:17:02,569
I was bored.

652
00:17:02,569 --> 00:17:06,369
I figured see if I could make a few extra bucks while I was sitting around.

653
00:17:06,369 --> 00:17:08,159
That's like bored to the next level.

654
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:08,800
Well,

655
00:17:08,799 --> 00:17:10,029
you're not wrong.

656
00:17:10,029 --> 00:17:10,409
So,

657
00:17:10,410 --> 00:17:10,660
uh,

658
00:17:10,660 --> 00:17:11,150
yeah,

659
00:17:11,150 --> 00:17:12,120
it was fun.

660
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:12,279
But Hey,

661
00:17:12,279 --> 00:17:13,180
you made money out of it,

662
00:17:13,180 --> 00:17:13,730
right?

663
00:17:13,730 --> 00:17:14,309
That's,

664
00:17:14,309 --> 00:17:14,609
yeah.

665
00:17:14,609 --> 00:17:14,859
Oh,

666
00:17:14,859 --> 00:17:15,469
you know,

667
00:17:15,470 --> 00:17:18,870
I think I so far made like 140 bucks or something after,

668
00:17:18,869 --> 00:17:19,659
I don't know,

669
00:17:19,660 --> 00:17:20,720
six hours work.

670
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:22,559
Who knows how long I worked for.

671
00:17:22,559 --> 00:17:23,359
Um,

672
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:24,599
last night it was,

673
00:17:24,599 --> 00:17:26,279
we tried to do it the other night and uh,

674
00:17:26,279 --> 00:17:29,200
the white was slow and the wife was reading tips online,

675
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,200
like how to get more deliveries and this stuff.

676
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:33,160
And it was like,

677
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,240
don't take the deliveries that are under X amount of money.

678
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:37,120
That means they didn't tip.

679
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:37,889
And I was like,

680
00:17:37,889 --> 00:17:38,189
Oh,

681
00:17:38,190 --> 00:17:39,090
that's like,

682
00:17:39,089 --> 00:17:41,609
apparently when you get the delivery,

683
00:17:41,610 --> 00:17:45,360
the total is the base fare plus what they've tipped.

684
00:17:45,360 --> 00:17:45,710
Okay.

685
00:17:45,710 --> 00:17:46,880
And if it's under X amount,

686
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:48,120
like if it's under like $4,

687
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,559
that means they've re they had to go in there and remove the tip.

688
00:17:51,559 --> 00:17:52,879
You don't put it in afterwards.

689
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:54,250
It auto fills it.

690
00:17:54,250 --> 00:17:58,110
And so they went in there and remove the tip
and made it zero cause they're assholes.

691
00:17:58,110 --> 00:17:58,710
Yeah.

692
00:17:58,710 --> 00:18:02,840
So I appreciate the drivers more now.

693
00:18:02,839 --> 00:18:05,019
Cause like a lot of times people don't tip and it's like,

694
00:18:05,110 --> 00:18:08,680
I just drove all the way across town so you
could have a fucking bean and cheese burrito.

695
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:09,300
You lazy,

696
00:18:09,299 --> 00:18:11,619
a $4 bucks at me.

697
00:18:11,619 --> 00:18:12,359
Right.

698
00:18:12,360 --> 00:18:15,280
That that's my go-to tip for like delivery drivers is like two bucks.

699
00:18:15,279 --> 00:18:15,400
Yeah.

700
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:15,650
I mean,

701
00:18:15,650 --> 00:18:18,600
it depends like how much it was and how far they had to drive.

702
00:18:18,599 --> 00:18:19,319
But you know,

703
00:18:19,319 --> 00:18:21,949
if it's around the corner type thing and you bring me a pizza,

704
00:18:21,950 --> 00:18:22,320
it's like,

705
00:18:22,319 --> 00:18:22,480
eh,

706
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:22,840
you know,

707
00:18:22,839 --> 00:18:23,159
here's,

708
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:23,600
here's two,

709
00:18:23,599 --> 00:18:26,219
three bucks or everything we ever order from.

710
00:18:26,220 --> 00:18:30,019
Cause we don't do like Uber eats or grub hub or anything like that.

711
00:18:30,019 --> 00:18:30,509
Uh,

712
00:18:30,509 --> 00:18:30,869
but any,

713
00:18:30,869 --> 00:18:32,069
any place we order from,

714
00:18:32,069 --> 00:18:33,960
it's within like a mile and a half.

715
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:34,529
Yeah.

716
00:18:34,529 --> 00:18:36,029
That's an easy one.

717
00:18:36,029 --> 00:18:38,500
Here's two extra dollars from what you're getting paid.

718
00:18:38,500 --> 00:18:42,720
That's Uber eats is a little like exploitative.

719
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,799
Like the base fare barely covers gas.

720
00:18:44,799 --> 00:18:46,109
So if you're not getting a tip,

721
00:18:46,110 --> 00:18:49,080
it's like you lose money on that trip basically.

722
00:18:49,079 --> 00:18:49,589
Okay.

723
00:18:49,589 --> 00:18:57,329
So things to keep in mind if you're out there ordering for those one dick
bag or chick-fil-a and his house was in this super rich country club.

724
00:18:57,329 --> 00:19:00,719
Like I had to go through a gate and show my ID and all this stuff.

725
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:01,000
And uh,

726
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:01,569
he didn't tip.

727
00:19:01,569 --> 00:19:01,980
I was like,

728
00:19:01,980 --> 00:19:02,849
you motherfucker.

729
00:19:02,849 --> 00:19:03,439
Oh,

730
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,759
we had like a $4 million house.

731
00:19:05,759 --> 00:19:07,480
How do you think you're so rich?

732
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:07,750
Yeah.

733
00:19:07,750 --> 00:19:09,680
I'd like all that extra money.

734
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:10,170
Right.

735
00:19:10,170 --> 00:19:10,600
Yeah.

736
00:19:10,599 --> 00:19:12,429
Had a bunch of cars out in the front,

737
00:19:12,430 --> 00:19:13,539
like nice cars.

738
00:19:13,539 --> 00:19:14,309
And I was like,

739
00:19:14,309 --> 00:19:15,089
you fucker.

740
00:19:15,089 --> 00:19:18,759
And then that same house popped up again a couple of days later.

741
00:19:18,759 --> 00:19:19,599
And I was like,

742
00:19:19,599 --> 00:19:20,210
oh fuck.

743
00:19:20,210 --> 00:19:21,450
It's the state's house.

744
00:19:21,450 --> 00:19:22,059
Like cancel.

745
00:19:22,059 --> 00:19:23,599
I'm not accepting that shit.

746
00:19:23,599 --> 00:19:24,319
You can go hungry,

747
00:19:24,319 --> 00:19:25,319
motherfucker.

748
00:19:25,319 --> 00:19:29,039
So get your own chick-fil-a bitch.

749
00:19:29,039 --> 00:19:29,879
Right.

750
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:31,640
You lazy fuck.

751
00:19:31,639 --> 00:19:32,039
You know,

752
00:19:32,039 --> 00:19:33,240
good times.

753
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:34,039
One first place.

754
00:19:34,039 --> 00:19:35,700
One of these weeks at a trivia with,

755
00:19:35,700 --> 00:19:36,559
with Deb and Brian.

756
00:19:36,559 --> 00:19:37,319
There we go.

757
00:19:37,319 --> 00:19:38,339
A first place story.

758
00:19:38,339 --> 00:19:38,710
Yeah.

759
00:19:38,710 --> 00:19:39,840
Another first place.

760
00:19:39,839 --> 00:19:40,329
All right.

761
00:19:40,329 --> 00:19:41,079
It was all good.

762
00:19:41,079 --> 00:19:41,519
Yeah.

763
00:19:41,519 --> 00:19:42,750
It was all good.

764
00:19:42,750 --> 00:19:42,860
Uh,

765
00:19:42,860 --> 00:19:44,880
we went to brunch the other day on Sunday.

766
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:50,780
Went to brunch with Coley and a big Dick Nick and this new spot by their house.

767
00:19:50,779 --> 00:19:52,190
It's a fucking party.

768
00:19:52,190 --> 00:19:53,400
So around here,

769
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,330
we have a lot of Mexican food places that like Sunday brunch,

770
00:19:56,329 --> 00:19:58,960
they'll have like buffet style brunch with all you can drink.

771
00:19:58,960 --> 00:19:59,490
Mimosas.

772
00:19:59,490 --> 00:20:01,059
They'll have a bunch of Mexican food,

773
00:20:01,059 --> 00:20:03,220
but they'll also have your gringo shit too.

774
00:20:03,319 --> 00:20:03,789
you know,

775
00:20:03,789 --> 00:20:05,879
waffles or omelets and that kind of stuff.

776
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:06,120
Yeah.

777
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,519
So they had us come to this place is closer to their house.

778
00:20:08,519 --> 00:20:09,250
We hadn't been before.

779
00:20:09,250 --> 00:20:09,589
Really,

780
00:20:09,589 --> 00:20:10,059
you know,

781
00:20:10,059 --> 00:20:11,199
good food and all that stuff.

782
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:11,500
But,

783
00:20:11,500 --> 00:20:11,740
uh,

784
00:20:11,740 --> 00:20:14,819
the best part was whenever it's someone's birthday,

785
00:20:14,819 --> 00:20:17,399
it's like a goddamn party in that place.

786
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,680
It's not the typical like shitty restaurant song.

787
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:21,690
Yeah.

788
00:20:21,690 --> 00:20:23,910
Yeah.

789
00:20:23,910 --> 00:20:24,320
Oh,

790
00:20:24,319 --> 00:20:25,920
yeah,

791
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,079
exactly.

792
00:20:27,079 --> 00:20:27,349
No,

793
00:20:27,349 --> 00:20:29,059
they fucking pumps though.

794
00:20:29,059 --> 00:20:33,679
It's different party songs every time they'll
fucking jam it over the sound system.

795
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,720
They've got people with noisemakers with signs.

796
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,759
Some chick was on some other dude's shoulders.

797
00:20:39,759 --> 00:20:41,389
They were holding up a like,

798
00:20:41,389 --> 00:20:42,000
like skull.

799
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:42,639
What do you got?

800
00:20:42,639 --> 00:20:43,129
Like deadly,

801
00:20:43,130 --> 00:20:46,140
some where it's a skulls with fireworks coming out of it.

802
00:20:46,139 --> 00:20:46,919
That's awesome.

803
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,600
It was a fucking bland.

804
00:20:48,599 --> 00:20:49,919
Then we were buzzed from all the mimosas do.

805
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:50,110
Well,

806
00:20:50,110 --> 00:20:50,769
hell yeah.

807
00:20:50,769 --> 00:20:52,360
That was a good time.

808
00:20:52,360 --> 00:20:53,640
Good fucking time.

809
00:20:53,639 --> 00:20:55,009
Good for you.

810
00:20:55,009 --> 00:20:56,619
That was a lot.

811
00:20:56,619 --> 00:20:57,699
I feel like we just,

812
00:20:57,700 --> 00:20:59,640
it's been a while.

813
00:20:59,639 --> 00:21:00,879
Stained.

814
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,680
Anytime anybody says that,

815
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:08,920
like I'll go burn a while and now my wife does it too.

816
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:09,620
So you're like,

817
00:21:09,619 --> 00:21:09,869
Hey,

818
00:21:09,869 --> 00:21:11,639
it's been a while since we've seen you.

819
00:21:11,639 --> 00:21:13,379
We're the worst.

820
00:21:13,380 --> 00:21:13,590
Um,

821
00:21:13,589 --> 00:21:14,119
all right,

822
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:15,919
we got some news to get to.

823
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,519
We got to find out what flexes drinking.

824
00:21:18,519 --> 00:21:18,700
Uh,

825
00:21:18,700 --> 00:21:23,320
let's kick things off with a little bit from the news flight.

826
00:21:23,319 --> 00:21:24,399
Everybody grab your paddles.

827
00:21:24,509 --> 00:21:26,360
(futuristic music)

828
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,000
[beeping]

829
00:21:38,799 --> 00:21:39,299
Clear.

830
00:21:39,299 --> 00:21:41,599
Real quick,

831
00:21:41,599 --> 00:21:43,359
the 2024,

832
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,919
I figured there's probably some homebrew people out there.

833
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:53,210
2024 homebrew competition has released some important
dates if you're interested in competing in that.

834
00:21:53,210 --> 00:21:56,640
Registration is from February 27th through March 15th.

835
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:00,280
First round judging begins after that.

836
00:22:00,279 --> 00:22:04,200
May through June is first round shipping and drop off.

837
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,480
July 29th through August 9th,

838
00:22:06,670 --> 00:22:07,550
final round shipping,

839
00:22:07,549 --> 00:22:09,339
August 17th through the 24th,

840
00:22:09,339 --> 00:22:11,789
final round judging in San Diego.

841
00:22:11,789 --> 00:22:13,279
And on October 10th,

842
00:22:13,279 --> 00:22:15,779
the winners are announced at GABF in Denver.

843
00:22:15,779 --> 00:22:16,000
So- Trey Lockerbie (00:05:00):

844
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:16,599
Do you get anything for winning?

845
00:22:16,599 --> 00:22:17,359
Preston Pysh (00:05:02):

846
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:18,089
I think so.

847
00:22:18,089 --> 00:22:20,399
It says something about grand prizes.

848
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,040
It just doesn't say what those grand prizes are.

849
00:22:23,039 --> 00:22:26,079
You have to get some medals and whatever else.

850
00:22:26,079 --> 00:22:26,559
Yeah.

851
00:22:26,559 --> 00:22:28,960
Athletic Brewing,

852
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:30,850
the NA beer company- Trey Lockerbie (00:05:16):

853
00:22:30,849 --> 00:22:32,000
I do know the NA beer company.

854
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:32,369
Preston Pysh (00:05:18):

855
00:22:32,369 --> 00:22:32,479
Yeah.

856
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,279
Has launched a moderation tool.

857
00:22:35,420 --> 00:22:39,120
It's an app that'll help you cut back on alcohol consumption.

858
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:39,319
Trey Lockerbie (00:05:25):

859
00:22:39,319 --> 00:22:40,700
So it's just like a notepad,

860
00:22:40,700 --> 00:22:41,360
but in an app?

861
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:45,359
It's like a journal.

862
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:45,759
Preston Pysh (00:05:31):

863
00:22:45,759 --> 00:22:46,109
Yeah.

864
00:22:46,109 --> 00:22:47,359
Just open up your note app.

865
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,679
I've had one beer.

866
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,720
I've had two beers.

867
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:53,259
Trey Lockerbie (00:05:40):

868
00:22:53,259 --> 00:22:55,539
Maybe you're supposed to talk shitty to yourself.

869
00:22:55,539 --> 00:22:55,849
Like,

870
00:22:55,849 --> 00:22:56,659
"You had one beer,

871
00:22:56,660 --> 00:22:58,259
you drunken asshole." Preston Pysh (00:05:44):

872
00:22:58,259 --> 00:22:58,480
Oh yeah.

873
00:22:58,480 --> 00:22:59,920
Make yourself feel like a piece of shit.

874
00:22:59,920 --> 00:23:00,519
Trey Lockerbie (00:05:46):

875
00:23:00,519 --> 00:23:00,639
Yeah.

876
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:01,280
Something like that.

877
00:23:01,279 --> 00:23:03,309
Who fucking needs that?

878
00:23:03,309 --> 00:23:03,919
Preston Pysh (00:05:49):

879
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,400
You can be athletic and drink real beer.

880
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:07,519
Trey Lockerbie (00:05:53):

881
00:23:07,519 --> 00:23:07,889
Yeah.

882
00:23:07,890 --> 00:23:08,670
Mel just ran that,

883
00:23:08,670 --> 00:23:09,300
what was it?

884
00:23:09,299 --> 00:23:11,039
The Dopey Challenge at Disney World.

885
00:23:11,039 --> 00:23:11,200
Preston Pysh (00:05:58):

886
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:11,829
Yeah.

887
00:23:11,829 --> 00:23:12,480
Psychopath.

888
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:12,890
Trey Lockerbie (00:06:00):

889
00:23:12,890 --> 00:23:13,120
Yeah.

890
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:14,639
Her and Lou are fucking nuts.

891
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:15,269
I did text her one of the days.

892
00:23:15,269 --> 00:23:15,839
Preston Pysh (00:06:03):

893
00:23:15,839 --> 00:23:18,240
Lou's fucking crazy because he didn't train at all for it.

894
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:18,450
Trey Lockerbie (00:06:05):

895
00:23:18,450 --> 00:23:18,940
Right.

896
00:23:18,940 --> 00:23:20,000
I texted her one of the days.

897
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:20,400
I was like,

898
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,540
"Please tell me my imagination is correct.

899
00:23:23,539 --> 00:23:29,139
I picture Lou running the course with turkey leg in
one hand and corn dog in the other." She's like,

900
00:23:29,140 --> 00:23:29,630
"Oh,

901
00:23:29,630 --> 00:23:33,760
he's eating all the foods today." *laughter*

902
00:23:33,250 --> 00:23:34,250
Yeah,

903
00:23:34,250 --> 00:23:38,650
he's fucking street meets over there.

904
00:23:38,650 --> 00:23:39,650
He's got a carb up.

905
00:23:39,650 --> 00:23:40,650
Yeah.

906
00:23:40,650 --> 00:23:41,650
Carb and protein.

907
00:23:41,650 --> 00:23:42,650
Athletic brewing.

908
00:23:42,650 --> 00:23:43,810
It's like a nice,

909
00:23:43,809 --> 00:23:44,569
I get it.

910
00:23:44,569 --> 00:23:45,689
Like some people,

911
00:23:45,690 --> 00:23:46,320
you know,

912
00:23:46,319 --> 00:23:47,579
they got problems,

913
00:23:47,579 --> 00:23:48,139
you know,

914
00:23:48,140 --> 00:23:49,580
so the NA fits for that,

915
00:23:49,579 --> 00:23:50,309
but you know,

916
00:23:50,309 --> 00:23:52,289
you could do stuff and still drink alcohol.

917
00:23:52,289 --> 00:23:53,289
Yeah.

918
00:23:53,289 --> 00:23:54,289
Especially in January.

919
00:23:54,289 --> 00:23:55,769
Go support your local breweries.

920
00:23:55,769 --> 00:23:56,769
Hell yeah.

921
00:23:56,769 --> 00:23:59,490
Flying fish has filed for bankruptcy.

922
00:23:59,490 --> 00:24:01,829
If you remember earlier in 2023,

923
00:24:01,829 --> 00:24:03,369
there was a long time ago.

924
00:24:03,369 --> 00:24:04,369
Yeah.

925
00:24:04,369 --> 00:24:06,129
Now there's at least a week and a half ago.

926
00:24:06,130 --> 00:24:11,690
They had a proposed merger going on with Cape
May brewing and Cape May pulled out of the deal.

927
00:24:11,690 --> 00:24:12,690
Pull out game strong.

928
00:24:12,690 --> 00:24:13,690
Yeah.

929
00:24:13,690 --> 00:24:15,410
Not a week over there.

930
00:24:15,410 --> 00:24:17,180
And now they are filing,

931
00:24:17,180 --> 00:24:19,019
they being flying fish,

932
00:24:19,019 --> 00:24:25,210
filing for a bankruptcy listing 9.3 million
owed to secured and unsecured creditors.

933
00:24:25,210 --> 00:24:28,329
And they have 1.3 in assets.

934
00:24:28,329 --> 00:24:29,449
So we smoked.

935
00:24:29,450 --> 00:24:30,450
Yeah.

936
00:24:30,450 --> 00:24:31,850
Now looking good for flying fish.

937
00:24:31,849 --> 00:24:44,009
I feel like they got their wings cut off.

938
00:24:46,250 --> 00:24:50,180
we're just two dudes having fun.

939
00:24:50,180 --> 00:24:50,769
Dang it.

940
00:24:50,769 --> 00:24:51,230
Yeah.

941
00:24:51,230 --> 00:24:53,670
You know what we didn't lose over the new year dad jokes.

942
00:24:53,670 --> 00:24:55,720
I was gonna say sense of humor.

943
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:55,960
So,

944
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:56,259
oh,

945
00:24:56,259 --> 00:24:59,309
well that's we're on the same wavelength.

946
00:24:59,309 --> 00:25:00,319
That's a given.

947
00:25:00,319 --> 00:25:00,470
Uh,

948
00:25:00,470 --> 00:25:03,210
All right before we find out what flex is drinking quick mention.

949
00:25:03,210 --> 00:25:05,690
We mentioned this I don't know a few episodes ago,

950
00:25:05,690 --> 00:25:08,470
but Magic Mind jumping on board the show here.

951
00:25:08,470 --> 00:25:12,970
Uh Magic Mind is that little uh energy drink I talked a little green bottle Uh,

952
00:25:12,970 --> 00:25:14,480
they're jumping on board with us.

953
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:21,509
If you don't remember I was talking about how you drink it
alongside your coffee Kind of helps the uh energy levels.

954
00:25:21,509 --> 00:25:22,750
I use it to replace a cup.

955
00:25:22,750 --> 00:25:31,180
So I usually have two cups Sometimes three in the morning and uh instead
i'll do a cup of coffee and a and a little Magic Mind shot I like it.

956
00:25:31,180 --> 00:25:31,740
It's easy.

957
00:25:31,740 --> 00:25:32,640
It's it's small.

958
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,899
It definitely does not taste bad It it if you're like I said before

959
00:25:35,899 --> 00:25:38,822
it's kind of like that weird red bull taste like some people

960
00:25:38,822 --> 00:25:41,890
like it Some people don't I like it So if you if you're into it,

961
00:25:41,890 --> 00:25:42,130
uh,

962
00:25:42,130 --> 00:25:45,209
i'm all about it helps keep the energy up Uh improves the coffee

963
00:25:45,209 --> 00:25:48,099
effectiveness approves the energy throughout the day I don't

964
00:25:48,099 --> 00:25:50,989
I don't feel like I need a coffee at two in the afternoon Uh,

965
00:25:50,990 --> 00:25:54,179
one of my favorite parts about it is that there's no sugar I

966
00:25:54,179 --> 00:25:57,473
don't do sugar except for beer beer is the only carbs I intake

967
00:25:57,473 --> 00:26:00,401
or alcohol That that is something i'm starting to watch

968
00:26:00,401 --> 00:26:03,119
again now too is that unnecessary like added sugars?

969
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,329
Yeah It's weird how much shit has sugar in it.

970
00:26:06,329 --> 00:26:06,539
Oh,

971
00:26:06,539 --> 00:26:07,509
it's crazy.

972
00:26:07,509 --> 00:26:07,720
Yeah,

973
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,640
like oh this Barbecue sauce has more sugar in it than your daily intake.

974
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:12,080
It's oh,

975
00:26:12,079 --> 00:26:12,409
yeah,

976
00:26:12,410 --> 00:26:13,710
it's so weird Uh,

977
00:26:13,710 --> 00:26:14,259
so yeah,

978
00:26:14,259 --> 00:26:18,341
so no sugar it's also like nut free vegan all that good stuff But I mainly care

979
00:26:18,341 --> 00:26:22,320
about the no sugar if any of this sounds like something you're into give it a

980
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,177

Yeah,

1012
00:27:44,869 --> 00:27:46,089
I think it's like an ounce.

1013
00:27:46,089 --> 00:27:47,000
It's like a little bottle.

1014
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:48,549
It's green Kind of fun looking,

1015
00:27:48,549 --> 00:27:49,099
you know,

1016
00:27:49,099 --> 00:27:50,089
if you're a ninja turtle fan,

1017
00:27:50,089 --> 00:27:51,480
it's very ooze like oh,

1018
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:57,090
I do like that looking not I should clarify you don't know how that ooze tasted.

1019
00:27:57,089 --> 00:27:58,409
Maybe it was delicious.

1020
00:27:58,410 --> 00:28:01,450
That's true I mean the turtles went into it after all so right.

1021
00:28:01,450 --> 00:28:03,940
It's got to smell somewhat decent Yeah,

1022
00:28:03,940 --> 00:28:04,789
otherwise they'd walk away.

1023
00:28:04,789 --> 00:28:06,000
I mean turtles are stupid.

1024
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:06,190
No,

1025
00:28:06,190 --> 00:28:07,240
they're pretty smart.

1026
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:07,569
Yeah,

1027
00:28:07,569 --> 00:28:08,639
pretty smart turtles.

1028
00:28:08,639 --> 00:28:15,109
So There you go be like the ninja turtles and check out magic *laughter*

1029
00:28:16,140 --> 00:28:17,410
Also not endorsed by the Ninja Turtles.

1030
00:28:17,410 --> 00:28:18,860
That sounds like a lawsuit.

1031
00:28:18,859 --> 00:28:19,659
-That would be cool.

1032
00:28:19,660 --> 00:28:21,600
-It would be even cooler.

1033
00:28:21,599 --> 00:28:21,819
All right,

1034
00:28:21,819 --> 00:28:23,419
let's find out what Flex is drinking over there.

1035
00:28:23,420 --> 00:28:26,700
-In a world where craft beer is king,

1036
00:28:26,700 --> 00:28:30,700
a world where muscles are bigger than growlers,

1037
00:28:30,700 --> 00:28:33,350
only one tongue can guide us.

1038
00:28:33,349 --> 00:28:33,980
One man,

1039
00:28:33,980 --> 00:28:35,420
one tongue,

1040
00:28:36,220 --> 00:28:38,620
one tongue jobber.

1041
00:28:38,619 --> 00:28:40,339
In this world,

1042
00:28:40,339 --> 00:28:44,939
we must find out what is Flex drinking.

1043
00:28:44,940 --> 00:28:47,180
-It's been a while.

1044
00:28:47,180 --> 00:28:54,509
So today I'm having a beer from our Midwest neighbors to the West,

1045
00:28:54,509 --> 00:28:55,180
Minnesota.

1046
00:28:55,180 --> 00:28:58,320
I didn't know this brewery even distributed.

1047
00:28:58,319 --> 00:29:04,779
I've heard of them before as like an underrated
up and coming brewery from Minnesota.

1048
00:29:04,779 --> 00:29:07,889
And it is Ursa Minor Brewing.

1049
00:29:07,890 --> 00:29:09,340
And they're in Duluth,

1050
00:29:09,339 --> 00:29:09,949
Minnesota.

1051
00:29:09,950 --> 00:29:11,559
And if you know anything about that,

1052
00:29:11,559 --> 00:29:12,700
it's basically Canada.

1053
00:29:12,700 --> 00:29:15,340
-Is that where like the Duluth Trading Company,

1054
00:29:15,339 --> 00:29:17,179
all their clothes and stuff?

1055
00:29:17,180 --> 00:29:17,950
-I don't know.

1056
00:29:17,950 --> 00:29:19,220
That's a good question.

1057
00:29:19,220 --> 00:29:22,700
I would assume so being an ignorant person.

1058
00:29:22,700 --> 00:29:23,019
-Sure.

1059
00:29:23,019 --> 00:29:23,420
Yeah.

1060
00:29:23,420 --> 00:29:25,420
-We can Google it later.

1061
00:29:25,420 --> 00:29:26,200
But yeah,

1062
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:30,130
Duluth is pretty far North up there in Minnesota.

1063
00:29:30,130 --> 00:29:33,550
The first thing that actually caught my eye is the can art.

1064
00:29:33,549 --> 00:29:34,589
-Oh,

1065
00:29:34,589 --> 00:29:35,819
very classic.

1066
00:29:35,819 --> 00:29:40,750
-I like the logo with the bear and the hops and the whirly,

1067
00:29:40,750 --> 00:29:42,089
swirly,

1068
00:29:42,089 --> 00:29:43,869
floral,

1069
00:29:43,869 --> 00:29:47,569
like almost Paisley print around the border.

1070
00:29:47,569 --> 00:29:49,690
And it's a gorgeous can,

1071
00:29:49,690 --> 00:29:50,950
great logo.

1072
00:29:50,950 --> 00:29:51,620
Of course,

1073
00:29:51,619 --> 00:29:53,269
I'm a haze nerd.

1074
00:29:53,269 --> 00:29:54,440
So hazy IPA for me,

1075
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:55,440
6.8%.

1076
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,850
The first thing we always look at too,

1077
00:29:57,849 --> 00:29:58,299
Greg,

1078
00:29:58,299 --> 00:29:59,339
it's a hazy.

1079
00:29:59,339 --> 00:29:59,899
Right?

1080
00:29:59,900 --> 00:30:01,660
-And it's hazy.

1081
00:30:01,660 --> 00:30:02,650
-And it's hazy.

1082
00:30:02,650 --> 00:30:03,740
Y'all can't see that,

1083
00:30:03,740 --> 00:30:04,839
but it is.

1084
00:30:04,839 --> 00:30:11,980
Untapped has this at a 4.04 out of over 2,300 ratings.

1085
00:30:11,980 --> 00:30:12,460
-Yeah,

1086
00:30:12,460 --> 00:30:13,500
very respectable.

1087
00:30:13,500 --> 00:30:14,460
-Pretty respectable.

1088
00:30:14,460 --> 00:30:15,740
And they read,

1089
00:30:15,740 --> 00:30:20,589
"Brewed with copious amounts of highly sought after galaxy hops,

1090
00:30:20,589 --> 00:30:24,119
the unique hop flavors will be a galactic face slap." Forgot to mention,

1091
00:30:24,119 --> 00:30:25,500
that's what the beer is called.

1092
00:30:25,500 --> 00:30:27,900
"To your senses,

1093
00:30:28,059 --> 00:30:37,819
take a sip and transport yourself to a crystal clear night in
Northern Minnesota with stars blazing above." So on the old schnoz,

1094
00:30:37,819 --> 00:30:40,069
very faint aroma.

1095
00:30:40,069 --> 00:30:46,359
It's grassy with really subtle hints of unripe pineapple,

1096
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,810
which is actually my favorite kind of pineapple,

1097
00:30:49,809 --> 00:30:50,919
fun fact,

1098
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:55,289
because it's not as sweet and it's a lot more sour and it's just,

1099
00:30:55,289 --> 00:30:56,609
it's the best.

1100
00:30:56,610 --> 00:30:59,480
So we warm up the old sung jobber now.

1101
00:30:59,480 --> 00:30:59,829
-Oh,

1102
00:30:59,829 --> 00:31:00,779
here we go.

1103
00:31:00,779 --> 00:31:01,819
-So wet.

1104
00:31:01,819 --> 00:31:03,019
-Slobbery.

1105
00:31:03,019 --> 00:31:03,889
-I mean,

1106
00:31:03,889 --> 00:31:06,879
it follows suit as the schnoz.

1107
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,230
It's grassy,

1108
00:31:08,230 --> 00:31:09,500
it's green,

1109
00:31:09,500 --> 00:31:13,289
it's really slight notes of that unripe pineapple,

1110
00:31:13,289 --> 00:31:15,750
really tiny amount of bitterness,

1111
00:31:15,750 --> 00:31:18,819
I'd say like a 2% bitterness hitting that,

1112
00:31:18,819 --> 00:31:20,569
that palette there.

1113
00:31:20,569 --> 00:31:21,909
Super crusher,

1114
00:31:21,910 --> 00:31:23,060
6.8%.

1115
00:31:23,059 --> 00:31:23,879
This is,

1116
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:25,650
I drink it all day.

1117
00:31:25,650 --> 00:31:26,940
This is phenomenal.

1118
00:31:26,940 --> 00:31:28,539
Since I've never seen them in the store before,

1119
00:31:28,539 --> 00:31:35,379
I'm going to reach out to them and see what else they have
in distribution so then I can reach out to my shop and say,

1120
00:31:35,380 --> 00:31:35,910
"Hey,

1121
00:31:35,910 --> 00:31:37,539
if you can snag this for me,

1122
00:31:37,539 --> 00:31:38,599
bring it in,

1123
00:31:38,599 --> 00:31:43,019
because I really do want to try more of these guys." -Smart.

1124
00:31:43,019 --> 00:31:44,069
-And again,

1125
00:31:44,069 --> 00:31:46,509
this was Galactic Face Slap.

1126
00:31:46,509 --> 00:31:47,819
And that name,

1127
00:31:47,819 --> 00:31:49,179
that's a-- -It's a great name.

1128
00:31:49,180 --> 00:31:49,820
-It's a great name.

1129
00:31:49,819 --> 00:31:50,299
Great name,

1130
00:31:50,299 --> 00:31:52,029
-What did the five fingers say to the face?

1131
00:31:52,029 --> 00:31:52,329
-Boom,

1132
00:31:52,329 --> 00:31:53,339
Galactic Face Slap.

1133
00:31:53,339 --> 00:31:56,399
And the cherry on top of this beer,

1134
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:56,820
Greg,

1135
00:31:56,819 --> 00:31:58,859
$12.99 for the four pack.

1136
00:31:58,860 --> 00:31:59,740
-Oh my god.

1137
00:31:59,740 --> 00:32:03,180
Fits beautifully in the algorithm.

1138
00:32:03,180 --> 00:32:03,720
-Like,

1139
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:04,910
basically cream my pants,

1140
00:32:04,910 --> 00:32:05,400
though.

1141
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:05,820
-Sexy.

1142
00:32:05,819 --> 00:32:06,379
-Yeah.

1143
00:32:06,380 --> 00:32:07,820
-Slobbery wet pants.

1144
00:32:07,839 --> 00:32:10,939
-No dry January down there.

1145
00:32:10,940 --> 00:32:12,940
-That'll be the name of the episode.

1146
00:32:12,940 --> 00:32:15,019
Cut that out.

1147
00:32:16,460 --> 00:32:17,259
I'm going to make it louder.

1148
00:32:17,259 --> 00:32:19,500
And for those of you at home wondering,

1149
00:32:19,500 --> 00:32:24,200
Duluth Trading Company is based in Mount Horeb,

1150
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:25,269
Wisconsin.

1151
00:32:25,269 --> 00:32:26,379
So there you go.

1152
00:32:26,380 --> 00:32:27,310
Preston Pysh (00:05:00):

1153
00:32:27,309 --> 00:32:27,419
Yeah,

1154
00:32:27,420 --> 00:32:28,300
maybe they're from Duluth.

1155
00:32:28,299 --> 00:32:28,879
Trey Lockerbie (00:05:02):

1156
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:29,100
Maybe.

1157
00:32:29,099 --> 00:32:29,529
Preston Pysh (00:05:02):

1158
00:32:29,529 --> 00:32:30,539
That's like the Madison area,

1159
00:32:30,539 --> 00:32:30,779
I think.

1160
00:32:30,779 --> 00:32:31,519
Trey Lockerbie (00:05:04):

1161
00:32:31,519 --> 00:32:31,660
Okay.

1162
00:32:31,660 --> 00:32:32,190
Preston Pysh (00:05:05):

1163
00:32:32,190 --> 00:32:32,450
I don't know.

1164
00:32:32,450 --> 00:32:32,860
I lied.

1165
00:32:32,859 --> 00:32:33,490
Trey Lockerbie (00:05:06):

1166
00:32:33,490 --> 00:32:34,059
I'll take your word for it.

1167
00:32:34,059 --> 00:32:35,819
Wherever Mount Horeb is.

1168
00:32:35,819 --> 00:32:36,460
Preston Pysh (00:05:09):

1169
00:32:36,460 --> 00:32:38,620
I don't know where anything in my own state is,

1170
00:32:38,740 --> 00:32:40,180
unless it's like Green Bay,

1171
00:32:40,180 --> 00:32:40,900
Milwaukee,

1172
00:32:40,900 --> 00:32:41,600
lacrosse.

1173
00:32:41,599 --> 00:32:42,049
Yeah.

1174
00:32:42,049 --> 00:32:44,299
You don't even know what lacrosse is.

1175
00:32:44,299 --> 00:32:45,099
Trey Lockerbie (00:05:25):

1176
00:32:45,099 --> 00:32:45,740
It's a sport.

1177
00:32:45,740 --> 00:32:45,990
Preston Pysh (00:05:26):

1178
00:32:45,990 --> 00:32:46,140
Yeah.

1179
00:32:46,140 --> 00:32:47,340
You're not wrong.

1180
00:32:47,339 --> 00:32:47,779
Trey Lockerbie (00:05:27):

1181
00:32:47,779 --> 00:32:47,899
Yeah.

1182
00:32:47,900 --> 00:32:48,660
But you know what,

1183
00:32:48,660 --> 00:32:49,180
not a sports show.

1184
00:32:49,180 --> 00:32:50,000
Preston Pysh (00:05:29):

1185
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:50,619
Not a Wisconsin show.

1186
00:32:50,619 --> 00:32:51,739
Trey Lockerbie (00:05:30):

1187
00:32:51,740 --> 00:32:52,059
Not yet.

1188
00:32:52,059 --> 00:32:53,179
Half the time.

1189
00:32:53,180 --> 00:32:54,220
Preston Pysh (00:05:33):

1190
00:32:54,220 --> 00:32:54,460
Actually,

1191
00:32:54,460 --> 00:32:56,500
it's pronounced "Mee-lee-wah-kay." Trey Lockerbie (00:05:36):

1192
00:32:56,500 --> 00:32:57,500
Now it's a Wisconsin show.

1193
00:32:57,500 --> 00:32:58,259
Preston Pysh (00:05:37):

1194
00:32:58,259 --> 00:32:58,619
There it is.

1195
00:32:58,619 --> 00:32:59,219
Trey Lockerbie (00:05:39):

1196
00:32:59,220 --> 00:32:59,410
All right.

1197
00:32:59,410 --> 00:33:02,910
Let's do a little news before we sober up and get out of here.

1198
00:33:02,910 --> 00:33:07,900
Asahi is going to acquire Wisconsin-based Octopi Brewing.

1199
00:33:07,900 --> 00:33:08,750
Preston Pysh (00:05:49):

1200
00:33:08,750 --> 00:33:08,940
Yeah.

1201
00:33:08,940 --> 00:33:09,500
I heard about this.

1202
00:33:09,500 --> 00:33:10,079
Trey Lockerbie (00:05:51):

1203
00:33:10,079 --> 00:33:10,859
Big news.

1204
00:33:10,859 --> 00:33:11,539
Preston Pysh (00:05:52):

1205
00:33:11,539 --> 00:33:11,740
Crazy.

1206
00:33:11,740 --> 00:33:12,609
Trey Lockerbie (00:05:53):

1207
00:33:12,609 --> 00:33:12,819
Yeah.

1208
00:33:12,819 --> 00:33:16,799
Japanese brewing giant Asahi announced they
have struck a deal to acquire Octopi Brewing,

1209
00:33:16,799 --> 00:33:18,379
a Wana-Key,

1210
00:33:18,380 --> 00:33:18,940
is that right?

1211
00:33:18,940 --> 00:33:19,430
Preston Pysh (00:06:00):

1212
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:19,660
Wana-Key.

1213
00:33:19,660 --> 00:33:19,820
Yep.

1214
00:33:19,819 --> 00:33:20,269
Trey Lockerbie (00:06:01):

1215
00:33:20,269 --> 00:33:20,490
Wana-Key,

1216
00:33:20,490 --> 00:33:21,900
Wisconsin-based contract brewer.

1217
00:33:21,900 --> 00:33:22,380
Preston Pysh (00:06:04):

1218
00:33:22,380 --> 00:33:24,060
That's like the whole Untitled Arts,

1219
00:33:24,059 --> 00:33:24,859
what you would call it.

1220
00:33:24,859 --> 00:33:25,599
Trey Lockerbie (00:06:07):

1221
00:33:25,599 --> 00:33:25,969
Yeah.

1222
00:33:25,970 --> 00:33:27,740
They do a ton of contract,

1223
00:33:27,740 --> 00:33:29,819
and they also do Untitled Arts.

1224
00:33:29,819 --> 00:33:33,429
Asahi Managing Director for EMEA and Americas,

1225
00:33:33,509 --> 00:33:33,660
blah,

1226
00:33:33,660 --> 00:33:34,300
blah,

1227
00:33:34,299 --> 00:33:34,569
said,

1228
00:33:34,569 --> 00:33:35,720
"By making this investment,

1229
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:40,390
we are taking a major step forward and accelerating
the growth journey of our global brand,

1230
00:33:40,390 --> 00:33:41,760
expanding awareness,

1231
00:33:41,759 --> 00:33:42,289
reach,

1232
00:33:42,289 --> 00:33:52,879
and access across North America through existing and new on and off trade
partners." Founder Isaac Shouwake opened Octopi in 2015 with six employees.

1233
00:33:52,880 --> 00:34:00,940
Octopi's output grew exponentially during the
pandemic with a 443% increase in volume in 2020.

1234
00:34:00,940 --> 00:34:02,700
In the following years,

1235
00:34:02,700 --> 00:34:08,940
Octopi sustained that growth with a 51%
increase in '21 and a 38% increase in '22.

1236
00:34:08,940 --> 00:34:15,220
They produced 220,000 barrels of beer for its
contract partners and under its own brand,

1237
00:34:15,219 --> 00:34:16,000
Untitled Art,

1238
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:16,849
in '22,

1239
00:34:16,849 --> 00:34:18,779
the most recent year that they have data for.

1240
00:34:18,780 --> 00:34:20,640
But the beer is only one piece of their business.

1241
00:34:20,639 --> 00:34:21,179
Last year,

1242
00:34:21,179 --> 00:34:26,529
the company was on track to produce 7 million case equivalents of beverages,

1243
00:34:26,530 --> 00:34:29,900
roughly 508,000 barrels,

1244
00:34:29,900 --> 00:34:31,210
he said in an interview.

1245
00:34:31,210 --> 00:34:33,460
He'll continue to lead the Octopi team,

1246
00:34:33,460 --> 00:34:38,150
which will keep working with contract partners for beer and other beverages.

1247
00:34:38,150 --> 00:34:38,849
Basically,

1248
00:34:38,849 --> 00:34:44,539
it's how Asahi is going to brew stateside and
they'll save on shipping and all that shit.

1249
00:34:44,539 --> 00:34:47,019
Kind of like what Sapporo is doing with Stone.

1250
00:34:47,019 --> 00:34:48,070
Right.

1251
00:34:48,150 --> 00:34:50,300
I hope they don't fuck up their other stuff.

1252
00:34:50,300 --> 00:34:50,630
Yeah.

1253
00:34:50,630 --> 00:34:54,920
Sounds like they're going to keep contract brewing for
everyone else and then do a little Asahi on the side.

1254
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,630
I had no idea they were putting out that amount of liquid,

1255
00:34:57,630 --> 00:34:59,420
508,000 barrels.

1256
00:34:59,420 --> 00:34:59,780
Yeah.

1257
00:34:59,780 --> 00:35:00,140
I mean,

1258
00:35:00,139 --> 00:35:01,289
they fucking bang it out,

1259
00:35:01,289 --> 00:35:01,779
man.

1260
00:35:01,780 --> 00:35:02,230
Yeah.

1261
00:35:02,230 --> 00:35:02,860
That's huge.

1262
00:35:02,860 --> 00:35:07,059
And what a good business model to have as the pandemic hits.

1263
00:35:07,059 --> 00:35:07,550
It's like,

1264
00:35:07,550 --> 00:35:07,769
"Oh,

1265
00:35:07,769 --> 00:35:09,179
you're closing down your brewery?

1266
00:35:09,179 --> 00:35:09,579
Well,

1267
00:35:09,579 --> 00:35:10,319
send us your recipes.

1268
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:11,660
We'll make them for you." Right.

1269
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:12,289
Genius.

1270
00:35:12,289 --> 00:35:16,389
A little recap from the Brewers Association for 2023.

1271
00:35:16,389 --> 00:35:21,819
It's craft's first volume decline outside of COVID and brewery closures tick up.

1272
00:35:21,820 --> 00:35:24,460
Outside of unique 2020,

1273
00:35:24,460 --> 00:35:29,340
this is the first time that independent brewers have seen such a decline.

1274
00:35:29,340 --> 00:35:31,700
The primary culprits are slowing demand growth,

1275
00:35:31,699 --> 00:35:33,409
competition from across beverage,

1276
00:35:33,409 --> 00:35:34,190
alcohol,

1277
00:35:34,190 --> 00:35:36,710
and a changing retail environment.

1278
00:35:36,710 --> 00:35:38,210
In 2023,

1279
00:35:38,210 --> 00:35:43,500
about 420 breweries opened and roughly 385 closed.

1280
00:35:43,500 --> 00:35:44,380
Come on.

1281
00:35:44,380 --> 00:35:44,990
The delta,

1282
00:35:44,989 --> 00:35:45,409
yeah.

1283
00:35:45,409 --> 00:35:49,420
The delta of 35 between those figures is the smallest in recent years.

1284
00:35:49,420 --> 00:35:51,130
Just in 2022,

1285
00:35:51,130 --> 00:35:58,619
9,500 breweries operate in the US and 550 breweries opened and 200 closed.

1286
00:35:58,619 --> 00:35:59,579
In 2021,

1287
00:35:59,579 --> 00:36:03,900
an estimated 710 breweries opened while 176 closed according to the report.

1288
00:36:03,900 --> 00:36:04,539
So basically,

1289
00:36:05,340 --> 00:36:08,620
we're getting a lot closer to that open close number there.

1290
00:36:08,619 --> 00:36:11,099
It feels like the reckoning,

1291
00:36:11,099 --> 00:36:12,619
the craft beer reckoning a little bit.

1292
00:36:12,619 --> 00:36:19,900
Maybe it's maybe one of those things where too many is not a good thing now.

1293
00:36:19,900 --> 00:36:20,389
Yeah.

1294
00:36:20,389 --> 00:36:22,380
And now quality is going to matter.

1295
00:36:22,380 --> 00:36:22,809
Right.

1296
00:36:22,809 --> 00:36:27,300
And the good ones are going to stand tall and you're really going to be

1297
00:36:27,300 --> 00:36:31,729
able to recognize the ones who don't have it or maybe the guys who got

1298
00:36:31,729 --> 00:36:36,220
too big for their britches and they start overproducing and you're like,

1299
00:36:36,220 --> 00:36:36,580
"Hey,

1300
00:36:36,579 --> 00:36:37,039
wow.

1301
00:36:37,039 --> 00:36:45,150
Why am I still paying this kind of money for this when
I can just go down the street and get that?" It's true.

1302
00:36:45,150 --> 00:36:45,570
Well,

1303
00:36:45,570 --> 00:36:48,050
and I think a lot of breweries for a while,

1304
00:36:48,050 --> 00:36:49,500
especially in smaller towns,

1305
00:36:49,500 --> 00:36:52,539
were operating under the notion of what else are you going to do?

1306
00:36:52,539 --> 00:36:53,420
Right.

1307
00:36:53,420 --> 00:36:53,970
It's like,

1308
00:36:53,970 --> 00:36:55,100
"There's not a lot around,

1309
00:36:55,099 --> 00:36:58,619
so come on down and drink some shit beer." And now,

1310
00:36:58,619 --> 00:37:03,829
so many breweries are distributing and there's also
so many breweries popping up even in small towns.

1311
00:37:03,829 --> 00:37:04,550
It's just,

1312
00:37:04,550 --> 00:37:06,060
you got to be good now.

1313
00:37:06,059 --> 00:37:06,679
Right.

1314
00:37:06,679 --> 00:37:08,779
You can't just be there to be there.

1315
00:37:08,779 --> 00:37:09,979
Exactly.

1316
00:37:09,980 --> 00:37:12,380
So- Not a get rich quick scheme.

1317
00:37:12,380 --> 00:37:13,340
No.

1318
00:37:13,340 --> 00:37:14,860
Ask any brewer.

1319
00:37:14,860 --> 00:37:16,940
That is for certain.

1320
00:37:16,940 --> 00:37:19,079
Here we go.

1321
00:37:19,079 --> 00:37:20,219
Should we take a trip down to Florida?

1322
00:37:20,220 --> 00:37:21,980
Our first Florida trip of the new year?

1323
00:37:21,980 --> 00:37:22,529
You know what?

1324
00:37:22,529 --> 00:37:23,659
I haven't been there in a while.

1325
00:37:23,659 --> 00:37:24,539
Here we go.

1326
00:37:24,539 --> 00:37:26,539
No dick hotels in this one.

1327
00:37:26,539 --> 00:37:27,420
Shucks.

1328
00:37:27,570 --> 00:37:33,820
Florida man threatens officers after they
tell his wife about drunken pool incident.

1329
00:37:33,820 --> 00:37:34,460
Yeah.

1330
00:37:34,460 --> 00:37:43,980
A Florida man's day at a community pool in the villages took a drastic turn when
he was arrested after drunkenly threatening to break a police officer's throat.

1331
00:37:43,980 --> 00:37:44,699
Oh.

1332
00:37:44,699 --> 00:37:45,019
Yeah.

1333
00:37:45,019 --> 00:37:46,779
You ever been punched in the jejunum?

1334
00:37:46,779 --> 00:37:48,859
Going straight roadhouse on the guy.

1335
00:37:48,860 --> 00:37:49,610
Yeah.

1336
00:37:49,610 --> 00:37:50,380
His threats,

1337
00:37:50,380 --> 00:37:50,780
however,

1338
00:37:50,779 --> 00:37:54,639
escalated when the officer decided to inform the man's wife about the incident.

1339
00:37:54,639 --> 00:37:59,259
"Pieces of shit," Lyle Parrott told officers according to an arrest affidavit.

1340
00:37:59,260 --> 00:38:00,560
Parrott,

1341
00:38:00,559 --> 00:38:01,739
64,

1342
00:38:01,739 --> 00:38:10,699
was arrested and charged with simple assault on a law enforcement officer after
the situation that unfolded in the Village of Deluna community swimming pool.

1343
00:38:10,699 --> 00:38:16,460
Officers responded to the pool after people complained
of a drunk person smoking in the pool area.

1344
00:38:16,460 --> 00:38:17,309
That man,

1345
00:38:17,309 --> 00:38:18,429
identified as Parrott,

1346
00:38:18,429 --> 00:38:18,819
also,

1347
00:38:18,820 --> 00:38:20,220
what a horrible name.

1348
00:38:20,220 --> 00:38:22,660
I feel like I'm talking about a bird,

1349
00:38:22,659 --> 00:38:28,460
became belligerent toward the responding officers and
yelled profanities at them while slurring his speech.

1350
00:38:28,460 --> 00:38:30,539
I'm just wondering if the officers were wearing shorts.

1351
00:38:30,539 --> 00:38:32,300
Guaranteed.

1352
00:38:32,300 --> 00:38:32,650
Right.

1353
00:38:32,650 --> 00:38:33,579
You get called to a pool,

1354
00:38:33,579 --> 00:38:34,460
like...

1355
00:38:34,460 --> 00:38:35,099
You got it.

1356
00:38:35,099 --> 00:38:36,460
You got to put shorts on.

1357
00:38:36,460 --> 00:38:38,940
Where's Deputy Dangle when you need him?

1358
00:38:38,940 --> 00:38:39,260
Right.

1359
00:38:39,260 --> 00:38:41,810
During Parrott's drunk rage,

1360
00:38:41,809 --> 00:38:44,059
an officer tried to get Parrott's name and date of birth.

1361
00:38:44,059 --> 00:38:49,929
The officer also noticed Parrott's Village ID card was
on the table when he tried to grab "For fucking with me,

1362
00:38:49,929 --> 00:38:53,179
I'm going to break your throat," he reportedly told officers.

1363
00:38:53,179 --> 00:38:56,619
"You're going to break my throat?" the officer asked.

1364
00:38:56,619 --> 00:39:04,219
"Yup." The man also said he'd kill the officer and
repeatedly asked the other to shoot him in the face.

1365
00:39:04,220 --> 00:39:05,280
During this back and forth,

1366
00:39:05,279 --> 00:39:08,149
an officer stepped away to make a phone call to Parrott's wife,

1367
00:39:08,150 --> 00:39:10,150
asking her to come to the pool,

1368
00:39:10,150 --> 00:39:10,670
pick him up,

1369
00:39:10,670 --> 00:39:11,980
and take him home.

1370
00:39:11,980 --> 00:39:16,159
"Shoot me in the face." Peace.

1371
00:39:19,639 --> 00:39:23,039
Really took a turn.

1372
00:39:23,039 --> 00:39:27,730
That's when Parrot became belligerent again
and yelled more profanities at the officers.

1373
00:39:27,730 --> 00:39:31,860
The officer reached across the table to grab Parrot's
ID card but he stood up and stepped toward him.

1374
00:39:31,860 --> 00:39:34,940
"Give me the goddamn ID back!" he screamed.

1375
00:39:34,940 --> 00:39:37,480
At this point Parrot got closer to the officer,

1376
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:42,190
made a fist with his right hand and swung it at
the officer in an attempt to hit him in the face.

1377
00:39:42,190 --> 00:39:47,659
The officer standing nearby was able to catch
Parrot's arm in the air before punching the officer.

1378
00:39:47,659 --> 00:39:51,730
Parrot was placed in handcuffs and escorted out to the officers patrol car.

1379
00:39:51,730 --> 00:39:54,796
While in the car he continued threatening the officers saying

1380
00:39:54,796 --> 00:39:57,516
he was going to kill them and also calling them pieces

1381
00:39:57,516 --> 00:39:59,889
of shit for calling his wife about the incident.

1382
00:39:59,889 --> 00:40:06,869
A few days later on Monday the officers were tipped that
Parrot's wife was asking around about them in the community.

1383
00:40:06,869 --> 00:40:12,420
The manager of the village told officers that Parrot's wife
was asking around to find out who got her husband arrested.

1384
00:40:12,420 --> 00:40:19,639
When officers made contact with her she said that she only made those comments
to try and talk to the people who were spreading rumors about her husband.

1385
00:40:19,639 --> 00:40:22,980
She said she didn't have any intention of causing any physical harm.

1386
00:40:22,980 --> 00:40:27,550
She added that she was upset about comments
being made about her husband and his arrest.

1387
00:40:27,550 --> 00:40:35,160
She stated people were spreading rumors about the community
making it hard for her to live in the community peacefully.

1388
00:40:35,159 --> 00:40:40,739
"They're spreading the rumors!" She's turned into a prospector.

1389
00:40:40,739 --> 00:40:46,799
Officers told her not to make any more comments and to stay
away from the residents who might be spreading rumors.

1390
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:53,680
Lord knows that she is the wildest ride in the wilderness!

1391
00:40:55,110 --> 00:40:56,420
nothing,

1392
00:40:56,420 --> 00:40:57,860
nothing dry about Florida.

1393
00:40:57,860 --> 00:40:58,300
I tell you.

1394
00:40:58,300 --> 00:41:01,820
Very slobbery.

1395
00:41:01,820 --> 00:41:04,420
Did they get like a BAC on this guy?

1396
00:41:04,420 --> 00:41:06,619
I'm sure through the roof.

1397
00:41:06,619 --> 00:41:07,199
I mean,

1398
00:41:07,199 --> 00:41:07,980
unreal.

1399
00:41:07,980 --> 00:41:10,420
They did not report one unfortunately.

1400
00:41:10,420 --> 00:41:11,900
It's a community pool guy.

1401
00:41:11,900 --> 00:41:13,480
Yeah.

1402
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:15,059
Smoking in the community pool.

1403
00:41:15,059 --> 00:41:16,619
What's more Florida than that?

1404
00:41:16,619 --> 00:41:19,539
I was probably listening to Kid Rock at the same time.

1405
00:41:19,539 --> 00:41:21,889
And if he wasn't intoxicated,

1406
00:41:21,889 --> 00:41:22,219
boy,

1407
00:41:22,219 --> 00:41:23,219
I tell ya.

1408
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:24,360
Yeah.

1409
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,740
Keeps giving Florida people a bad name.

1410
00:41:26,739 --> 00:41:27,879
Yeah.

1411
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:28,900
Oh man.

1412
00:41:28,900 --> 00:41:30,780
What a upstanding citizen.

1413
00:41:30,780 --> 00:41:31,100
All right.

1414
00:41:31,099 --> 00:41:31,940
We'll end it with this.

1415
00:41:31,940 --> 00:41:32,480
Top five,

1416
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:33,019
you know,

1417
00:41:33,019 --> 00:41:33,860
end of the year,

1418
00:41:33,860 --> 00:41:34,890
beginning of the year,

1419
00:41:34,889 --> 00:41:35,739
we got some lists.

1420
00:41:35,739 --> 00:41:39,699
Top five states for beer production and tap room consumption.

1421
00:41:39,699 --> 00:41:42,019
What states produce the most amount of beer?

1422
00:41:42,019 --> 00:41:43,059
You might ask.

1423
00:41:43,059 --> 00:41:46,380
I'm thinking Colorado and California are in there.

1424
00:41:46,380 --> 00:41:46,710
Well,

1425
00:41:46,710 --> 00:41:47,300
you're not wrong.

1426
00:41:47,300 --> 00:41:47,940
Top five.

1427
00:41:47,940 --> 00:41:48,980
I was actually surprised by this.

1428
00:41:48,980 --> 00:41:49,610
Number five,

1429
00:41:49,610 --> 00:41:50,340
California.

1430
00:41:50,340 --> 00:41:51,180
I thought they'd be higher.

1431
00:41:51,179 --> 00:41:51,879
Okay.

1432
00:41:52,210 --> 00:41:53,139
Number four,

1433
00:41:53,139 --> 00:41:54,059
Virginia.

1434
00:41:54,059 --> 00:41:55,779
That doesn't make sense.

1435
00:41:55,780 --> 00:41:57,060
It gets weirder.

1436
00:41:57,059 --> 00:41:57,920
Number three,

1437
00:41:57,920 --> 00:41:58,380
Ohio.

1438
00:41:58,380 --> 00:41:59,660
Number two,

1439
00:41:59,659 --> 00:42:00,259
Texas.

1440
00:42:00,260 --> 00:42:01,000
Well,

1441
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:01,699
they're huge.

1442
00:42:01,699 --> 00:42:02,319
And number one,

1443
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:02,860
Colorado.

1444
00:42:02,860 --> 00:42:03,620
Yeah.

1445
00:42:03,619 --> 00:42:04,139
That makes sense.

1446
00:42:04,139 --> 00:42:05,079
Yeah.

1447
00:42:05,079 --> 00:42:08,860
Where do Americans drink the most beer inside breweries?

1448
00:42:08,860 --> 00:42:10,300
So where do they actually do their brewery drinking?

1449
00:42:10,300 --> 00:42:10,660
Uh,

1450
00:42:10,659 --> 00:42:11,339
number five,

1451
00:42:11,340 --> 00:42:12,019
New York.

1452
00:42:12,019 --> 00:42:12,750
Number four,

1453
00:42:12,750 --> 00:42:13,380
Florida.

1454
00:42:13,380 --> 00:42:14,309
Number three,

1455
00:42:14,309 --> 00:42:14,819
Colorado.

1456
00:42:14,820 --> 00:42:15,950
Number two,

1457
00:42:15,949 --> 00:42:16,500
Tejas.

1458
00:42:16,500 --> 00:42:18,010
Number one,

1459
00:42:18,010 --> 00:42:18,980
California.

1460
00:42:18,980 --> 00:42:19,699
Okay.

1461
00:42:19,699 --> 00:42:20,539
There you go.

1462
00:42:20,539 --> 00:42:21,420
There you go.

1463
00:42:22,179 --> 00:42:27,099
And which states have the most breweries per 100,000 people?

1464
00:42:27,099 --> 00:42:29,619
That's gotta be like California and Colorado,

1465
00:42:29,619 --> 00:42:30,179
right?

1466
00:42:30,179 --> 00:42:32,539
That's exactly what I thought.

1467
00:42:32,539 --> 00:42:33,860
Not even close.

1468
00:42:33,860 --> 00:42:34,800
Number five,

1469
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,019
New Hampshire.

1470
00:42:36,019 --> 00:42:36,940
Number four.

1471
00:42:36,940 --> 00:42:38,139
You ready for this one?

1472
00:42:38,139 --> 00:42:39,059
Alaska.

1473
00:42:39,059 --> 00:42:40,019
Weird.

1474
00:42:40,019 --> 00:42:43,579
Let us go to the brewery per a hundred thousand.

1475
00:42:43,579 --> 00:42:44,960
Right.

1476
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:46,699
I guess you have three breweries.

1477
00:42:46,699 --> 00:42:47,199
That's all you need.

1478
00:42:47,199 --> 00:42:49,980
You have three breweries and under a hundred thousand people.

1479
00:42:49,980 --> 00:42:55,139
That's I was giving my 16 ounces of beer today.

1480
00:42:55,139 --> 00:42:57,299
This is how you brew beer.

1481
00:42:57,300 --> 00:42:57,710
Uh,

1482
00:42:57,710 --> 00:42:58,980
number three,

1483
00:42:58,980 --> 00:42:59,599
Maine,

1484
00:42:59,599 --> 00:43:00,710
number two,

1485
00:43:00,710 --> 00:43:01,699
Montana.

1486
00:43:01,699 --> 00:43:02,859
And number one,

1487
00:43:02,860 --> 00:43:04,700
Vermont.

1488
00:43:04,699 --> 00:43:05,960
Montana is pretty wide open,

1489
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:06,380
right?

1490
00:43:06,380 --> 00:43:07,280
Yeah.

1491
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:08,940
Not a huge population.

1492
00:43:08,940 --> 00:43:09,659
Yeah.

1493
00:43:09,659 --> 00:43:11,940
Montana and Alaska really hanging together.

1494
00:43:11,940 --> 00:43:12,480
Yeah.

1495
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:13,740
So it makes sense.

1496
00:43:13,739 --> 00:43:15,939
Lots of tundra up in Alaska.

1497
00:43:15,940 --> 00:43:16,420
Well,

1498
00:43:16,420 --> 00:43:18,619
some might say tons of tundra.

1499
00:43:19,059 --> 00:43:19,369
Oh,

1500
00:43:19,369 --> 00:43:20,339
there it is.

1501
00:43:20,340 --> 00:43:21,260
There it is.

1502
00:43:21,260 --> 00:43:22,900
I missed out on a gold mine right there.

1503
00:43:22,900 --> 00:43:23,740
You really did.

1504
00:43:23,739 --> 00:43:26,619
And that's why we're absolutely hitting the music now.

1505
00:43:26,619 --> 00:43:29,460
It got that bad.

1506
00:43:29,460 --> 00:43:29,720
Hi,

1507
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:30,419
Vanessa.

1508
00:43:30,420 --> 00:43:30,760
Hi,

1509
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:31,620
Vanessa.

1510
00:43:31,619 --> 00:43:33,029
Or should I say happy new year,

1511
00:43:33,030 --> 00:43:33,620
Vanessa?

1512
00:43:33,619 --> 00:43:35,019
Uh,

1513
00:43:35,019 --> 00:43:35,860
both.

1514
00:43:35,860 --> 00:43:36,500
Happy new year.

1515
00:43:36,500 --> 00:43:37,119
Hello.

1516
00:43:37,119 --> 00:43:37,619
Yeah.

1517
00:43:37,619 --> 00:43:38,179
Nothing like that.

1518
00:43:38,179 --> 00:43:38,699
Uh,

1519
00:43:38,699 --> 00:43:41,460
find us craftbeerrepublic.com on the socials,

1520
00:43:41,460 --> 00:43:42,099
Craft Beer Republic.

1521
00:43:42,099 --> 00:43:42,769
Of course,

1522
00:43:42,769 --> 00:43:43,630
flex me a beer,

1523
00:43:43,630 --> 00:43:45,260
underscores in between.

1524
00:43:45,260 --> 00:43:45,690
And,

1525
00:43:45,690 --> 00:43:46,019
uh,

1526
00:43:46,019 --> 00:43:48,900
I must say some thirst traps lately.

1527
00:43:48,900 --> 00:43:52,420
I like that you're getting back to the sexy workout stories.

1528
00:43:52,420 --> 00:43:53,519
Am I?

1529
00:43:53,519 --> 00:43:56,259
You posted a couple throughout the holidays.

1530
00:43:56,260 --> 00:43:56,860
Yeah,

1531
00:43:56,860 --> 00:43:57,460
maybe.

1532
00:43:57,460 --> 00:43:57,869
You know,

1533
00:43:57,869 --> 00:43:59,019
we talked about it with Mel,

1534
00:43:59,019 --> 00:44:04,259
I think on the last episode that we're missing those and then they
started popping up and that's not all that started popping up.

1535
00:44:04,260 --> 00:44:05,020
Let me tell you.

1536
00:44:05,019 --> 00:44:06,300
I'll start getting back into it.

1537
00:44:06,300 --> 00:44:06,980
Yeah.

1538
00:44:06,980 --> 00:44:08,380
Everybody's wanting any of that.

1539
00:44:08,380 --> 00:44:09,300
Or start your OnlyFans.

1540
00:44:09,300 --> 00:44:11,640
What else?

1541
00:44:11,639 --> 00:44:11,859
Oh,

1542
00:44:11,860 --> 00:44:13,579
mail@craftbeerrepublic.com.

1543
00:44:13,579 --> 00:44:17,059
805-538-beer-2337.

1544
00:44:17,539 --> 00:44:18,820
I think I've covered it all.

1545
00:44:18,820 --> 00:44:21,740
Hope everyone is staying very well hydrated.

1546
00:44:21,739 --> 00:44:22,819
And on that note,

1547
00:44:22,820 --> 00:44:23,650
good night,

1548
00:44:23,650 --> 00:44:24,380
everybody.
