Speaker:

And hey, if there's a little bit of time left, we're going to get to your beer

Boy, do I feel good about it.

Speaker:

Good talking about your strap on and let's go. Oh.

Speaker:

All right.

Speaker:

Let's let's strap on these Air Force ones and get to some drinking over here.

Speaker:

Oh, we're loving our beer, and we're ordering the same beer,

Speaker:

which is fan tastic. See what.

Speaker:

We are. Drinking patterns.

Speaker:

A double IPA from great notion brewing 8.2%.

Speaker:

You're welcome over there how 4.01 on untapped very respectable

Speaker:

from great notion they say this double

Speaker:

IPA unveils to us new and exciting forms from the patterns within

Speaker:

brewed with Roca hops from a family farm in New Zealand.

Speaker:

We're excited to bring you this special double IPA.

Speaker:

Special indeed is super special.

Speaker:

Yeah, this you've had this before, Fleck

Speaker:

and you're like, you got to try the patterns.

Speaker:

And I waited for the show.

Speaker:

This is my first taste. Yeah.

Speaker:

So I'm going to let you know when I crack this can.

Speaker:

It says Ruakaka hops

Speaker:

have a very robust aroma to them.

Speaker:

Yeah. And

Speaker:

it once

Speaker:

you crack the can, you instantly smell it and then pouring it out into the glass.

Speaker:

It just emanates that so much more.

Speaker:

But it's what I thought was kind of strange as looking up a hops

Speaker:

and a lot of a lot of things, say citrus, orange, grapefruit,

Speaker:

kumquats, which are essentially, you know, baby oranges.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

In a nutshell, I got like some real floral,

Speaker:

dank aromas and it was actually kind of reminiscent of like a really,

Speaker:

really high end gin, like juniper berry floral kind of notes to it.

Speaker:

And that just totally blew my mind.

Speaker:

That's, you know, I'm not a big gin drinker, so to never come up with that.

Speaker:

But I was having a hard time putting my finger on the schnoz, like

Speaker:

I got some floral notes and I was, you know, was like, what is that smell?

Speaker:

And you maybe you nailed it.

Speaker:

I'm not a gin drinker.

Speaker:

I hope I nailed it because it's it's exactly what when I smell.

Speaker:

When I drink a really, really nice gin.

Speaker:

You've got my stamp of you. Nailed it.

Speaker:

You definitely nailed it. I guess. My gosh. Well, thank you so much.

Speaker:

Thank you.

Speaker:

Have me a dank blacks. Hmm.

Speaker:

I love me some dank. And this is. It's their.

Speaker:

Oh, it's delicious.

Speaker:

Yeah. Erica, where's your microphone? Yeah.

Speaker:

Why are you far away?

Speaker:

What? Oh, sorry.

Speaker:

You had me a dank flex there.

Speaker:

Is that better? I was like, what the. Yeah, sounds like.

Speaker:

It was so much better. It was sticking straight up.

Speaker:

I was like it was looking at the ceiling.

Speaker:

I'm supposed to do that? Oh, the microphone. Okay. Yeah, it was.

Speaker:

It's like just letting a dude saying I'm like, hey, I took the blue pill.

Speaker:

But yeah, I mean, the color on this one, too, it's it's gorgeous.

Speaker:

I mean, gorgeous.

Speaker:

Like a what did you call like a pale straw yellow type.

Speaker:

The straw is a good term for that.

Speaker:

Visually, this is what I want every hazy to look like.

Speaker:

Absolutely.

Speaker:

It almost has a sparkle to it.

Speaker:

I mean. Yeah. And the bubbles.

Speaker:

I think that's just alcohol. Talking. Is that what it is.

Speaker:

Those beer.

Speaker:

Goggles?

Speaker:

Whew. There goes the microphone again.

Speaker:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker:

I mean, the on the tongue job, I get some of those floral notes,

Speaker:

but I'm getting way more tropical than I did on the nose.

Speaker:

It's kind of hides in there.

Speaker:

You smell it and you get one thing. You taste it.

Speaker:

It's it's very tropical.

Speaker:

You get like the orange in the come quiet that you were talking about

Speaker:

and I don't know, maybe some like mango or something going on.

Speaker:

Yeah, tiny bubbles. Well.

Speaker:

Just about everything you said is what's going on.

Speaker:

And all the things are having my mouth.

Speaker:

Oh, yes. Oh, man.

Speaker:

This is just. But huge.

Speaker:

Thanks. It's a great notion.

Speaker:

Yeah. Thanks for that.

Speaker:

This is. Patterns.

Speaker:

But I have to be honest, when I go to Portland,

Speaker:

because that's where a lot of my family is.

Speaker:

And, you know, we'll head up great notion.

Speaker:

And I always try to go for like

Speaker:

the unusual sours and the blueberry, all these things.

Speaker:

I don't I never really thought of them as an IPA.

Speaker:

All Yeah, it's incredible.

Speaker:

What I really love about great notion

Speaker:

is you go on their their new app that they Yeah.

Speaker:

Sent out or that they released and they say straight up on the app

Speaker:

IPAs sours and like gourmet

Speaker:

stouts or something like that but it's like they don't fuck around.

Speaker:

They straight up tell you, look, we are brewing IPAs, sours

Speaker:

and stouts, all of them and and they don't give a shit, you know, those like.

Speaker:

All those things. Yeah. And I just think that's really great.

Speaker:

That is. Yeah.

Speaker:

And I'm with Erika like whenever I saw them before, which was rare

Speaker:

shipping is like, oh, let me grab that sour

Speaker:

because it's always here about this hour, but this hazy

Speaker:

fucking chef's kiss over here, it's just beautiful.

Speaker:

And okay, on the algorithm scale, flex.

Speaker:

Speaker:

And I'm over here giggling like a little girl and flexes like whatever.

Speaker:

I could take ten more beer.

Speaker:

Speaker:

I'm cool with it. Yeah.

Speaker:

So the UPS guy or whoever delivered this was like,

Speaker:

that box is ridiculous because that.

Speaker:

Very decorated box, the.

Speaker:

Art on the box is amazing. So okay.

Speaker:

I was almost more excited about the boxes.

Speaker:

It's amazing.

Speaker:

Right outside.

Speaker:

Yeah. I can't throw it out.

Speaker:

I don't know about you guys.

Speaker:

The tape job on the box was like getting into Fort Knox.

Speaker:

Like they know it was in it whole.

Speaker:

Can they know what the hell they're doing?

Speaker:

I needed a fucking machete to give me.

Speaker:

And I think I know who packed it.

Speaker:

So I was just, you know, I had a booth at a beer fest last weekend and

Speaker:

or couple of weekends ago and I just I went to the great notion Booth.

Speaker:

I was like, Oh my gosh, we got some beer from y'all.

Speaker:

And this guy was like,

Speaker:

Oh, yeah, we have a distro center here in Sacramento, and I box that up for you.

Speaker:

And then I was talking about the box, how cool it was.

Speaker:

He's like, people get so like tripped out about these boxes, they'll come by

Speaker:

and just ask for the boxes and it's like, Oh, we got thousands of them.

Speaker:

I believe that, too.

Speaker:

I'm still I'm still I still have mine

Speaker:

stacked on top of each other down in my basement because I think

Speaker:

I think I want to do something with them there.

Speaker:

There was no but they're so cool.

Speaker:

I can't tell.

Speaker:

Like, my wife's like, can I throw these away now is like, oh,

Speaker:

I feel like I need a picture.

Speaker:

I don't know what it's going to be.

Speaker:

Right, right.

Speaker:

She's like, We should need to be one of the characters.

Speaker:

We need to be a character for Halloween or something.

Speaker:

Yeah, like be funny.

Speaker:

We so funny but yeah, so impressed with what they do.

Speaker:

And I was not expecting that from this

Speaker:

because I thought it was they were just the sour kind of thing but

Speaker:

good.

Speaker:

Weren't trying their beers at the festival.

Speaker:

Yes. So they were pouring the ripe which I got some cans of the ripe

Speaker:

so I didn't go for that.

Speaker:

There was like a peaches and something sour and it was ridiculous.

Speaker:

It was amazing.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

So, yeah, that was great. Nice.

Speaker:

Good job right now.

Speaker:

Uh, breweries to report about.

Speaker:

So kind of how it goes down, especially at this festival

Speaker:

because it was like, steady but not so busy that

Speaker:

I need my friends to be right next to me because I could handle

Speaker:

the booth is they just start like stacking the cups.

Speaker:

They go and get more and they stack them like, Oh,

Speaker:

this was a martin, this was a bar, and they're just sitting there.

Speaker:

So I'm like drinking them while they're going and filling up my cup.

Speaker:

I don't remember what half of beers were, but they're pretty good.

Speaker:

Like I said, it's like the job

Speaker:

that you can drink and work and you know, whatever.

Speaker:

That's like we were.

Speaker:

At a was like Surfin said almost a year ago

Speaker:

and while you from the booths like they had a booth

Speaker:

and while he got us in and and Callie was working the booth

Speaker:

so we'd go like drink a beer and then we'd come back around like,

Speaker:

you guys need fills and we grab their glasses

Speaker:

and go fill them up and then go drink a beer like a good or even more.

Speaker:

So we just kept dropping beers off at their booth and they're.

Speaker:

It's perfect. They're so lined up. And then

Speaker:

the hospital had, like, rented out the entire zoo

Speaker:

for like the employees of Sterling take the kids.

Speaker:

And I didn't think I could get in time.

Speaker:

Huh, McDreamy?

Speaker:

Oh. Sorry.

Speaker:

McDreamy took the kids.

Speaker:

You know, we had a real.

Speaker:

Name and forgot excuse me.

Speaker:

And I didn't think I'd make it in time, but I went over there

Speaker:

after drinking the beers, and I got to even go to the zoo afterwards.

Speaker:

But, yeah, it's a good day.

Speaker:

Yeah, it's a good day.

Speaker:

But I don't know what any of those beers are today.

Speaker:

It was a good day.

Speaker:

It's good.

Speaker:

It sounds like an awesome weekend.

Speaker:

Pretty fabulous.

Speaker:

Then we smoked meats the next day.

Speaker:

Oh, Meats. Was not expecting me. It's.

Speaker:

I thought that was going so early.

Speaker:

We smoked a weed the next day.

Speaker:

Oh, darn it.

Speaker:

McDreamy went in for surgery.

Speaker:

No, that would absolutely never happen.

Speaker:

But no meat m e a t for.

Speaker:

You. Gentlemen. Got it.

Speaker:

Thanks. Nice.

Speaker:

That's a fucking killer weekend right there.

Speaker:

It was a killer weekend.

Speaker:

It's perfect.

Speaker:

Mine was not nearly as good, but I did do some research.

Speaker:

We stopped in it, talked about this a few weeks ago.

Speaker:

I had one there.

Speaker:

Beers in the show Eureka Brewing, their new satellite taproom by us.

Speaker:

Had a few more of their beers

Speaker:

back and chug some more pop tart because it's delicious.

Speaker:

That sounds so good.

Speaker:

Oh, so good. They do such a good job. It's like that. Perfect.

Speaker:

It's tart, not sour that the flavors in it.

Speaker:

Love that, POG.

Speaker:

Oh, good.

Speaker:

That's my favorite fruit combo of, like, all time.

Speaker:

Really? All the time. That's crazy. It's amazing, though.

Speaker:

And my kids won't drink. Pog I'm like, we don't know why.

Speaker:

I'm like, drink. Pog And they're like, Mm.

Speaker:

This isn't good.

Speaker:

Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker:

Y y I was 20 when we went to Hawaii.

Speaker:

First time I read Pog, and then I came back.

Speaker:

I was like, I need to find Pog.

Speaker:

And like, back then, nobody had Pog anything.

Speaker:

And, and now like every other beer has.

Speaker:

Pogba Which is great because I want to drink, you know, and drink beer.

Speaker:

Yeah, exactly.

Speaker:

No, I'm just hoping everybody listening knows what POG is.

Speaker:

Oh, passion. Orange and guava. Juice.

Speaker:

Thank you.

Speaker:

Sorry.

Speaker:

We are being insiders.

Speaker:

Yeah, so did that. When do you get?

Speaker:

Then we go

Speaker:

over to Bottle and Pi where our friend Spencer works and we're talking to him.

Speaker:

He's also one of the brewers at Midwest and he's talking about some upcoming beers

Speaker:

being a POG. They're making a POG beer as well.

Speaker:

So he's going nice nights them over for them.

Speaker:

And they're pale ales to die for.

Speaker:

The best pale ale around and they're hazy.

Speaker:

I see it all the time.

Speaker:

Speaker:

That's right. In Ventura County.

Speaker:

Boom.

Speaker:

Get it dropped. Yeah.

Speaker:

Got it.

Speaker:

And switch the laces.

Speaker:

And that's that's pretty much it for me.

Speaker:

You guys

Speaker:

been joining any football recently?

Speaker:

Uh, you know, loving, uh, love in week two do not love week one.

Speaker:

But I've been finding myself staying up, you know, late

Speaker:

Thursday nights now and late Sunday nights now and late morning right now.

Speaker:

Because I'm just so happy that it's back.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Last week was a was a rough week for me

Speaker:

I my two quarterbacks in my fantasy league

Speaker:

Dak Prescott, Trey Lance yikes.

Speaker:

Yeah though no more quarterbacks in my.

Speaker:

I did go all in one league and Trey Lance

Speaker:

I did not have another quarterback on my roster uh. Huh.

Speaker:

Quickly got one. So that was. Good. Yes.

Speaker:

So now I've picked up and I hate to say this out loud, I've picked up Derek Carr.

Speaker:

Uh, yeah, but.

Speaker:

The problem.

Speaker:

He's got, he's got Davante Adams.

Speaker:

He'll be all. Right.

Speaker:

He does if anybody wants a quarterback to have a shit season

Speaker:

or probably do, like, miss the rest of the seasons, let me know.

Speaker:

I'll put him on my team.

Speaker:

I know the types this year.

Speaker:

So you mad at Tom Brady?

Speaker:

Let me pick up Tom Brady. He'll be you know what?

Speaker:

Can I can I just tell you right now, that is my

Speaker:

my curse with Milwaukee Brewers players.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

So in the entire years of me buying jerseys

Speaker:

or like player shirts or anything like that,

Speaker:

every time I have gotten that something a horrible has happened to that player

Speaker:

and this year sorry now Padres fans but it was it was Josh Hader.

Speaker:

I bought it.

Speaker:

Josh Hader. Jersey madres. Right. Thank you.

Speaker:

Yeah, I bought a Josh Hader jersey this year and he blew like five

Speaker:

saves in a row.

Speaker:

The Brewers traded him and then he blew like six

Speaker:

or seven saves in a row for the Padres or something like that.

Speaker:

So it's just he's rollin. Yeah.

Speaker:

At least he's consistent.

Speaker:

Yeah. Yeah. That's a good way to look at it.

Speaker:

Yeah, it's consistent.

Speaker:

We had a really nice hair and.

Speaker:

Yeah, somebody.

Speaker:

My wife is a big A's fan.

Speaker:

She's from the Bay Area. She's an A's fan.

Speaker:

Luckily, she's not Giants fan. That's why we're married.

Speaker:

Yeah, that would be gross. Yeah.

Speaker:

And so she there is a player on the team.

Speaker:

One year they picked up a player that had the same last name as her.

Speaker:

So she's like, Oh, I want that jersey.

Speaker:

Same last name, obviously.

Speaker:

And so like, I got it for it.

Speaker:

As soon as we bought it, he was

Speaker:

like, Oh, that was.

Speaker:

Great and. Still cool to have that jersey.

Speaker:

Yeah, so.

Speaker:

It's still cool. Goes to your last name?

Speaker:

Yeah. Is it a beer?

Speaker:

Because that's the best last name ever.

Speaker:

I'm sorry. Okay, it is.

Speaker:

Now I.

Speaker:

Need to get a jersey with that on my.

Speaker:

Back.

Speaker:

On the front it should say flex me in the back.

Speaker:

Absolutely.

Speaker:

That's awesome.

Speaker:

A Brewers jersey with flex me a beer on the back would actually be pretty.

Speaker:

So debido you and the duke drinkability.

Speaker:

I need your Instagram handles on your.

Speaker:

Yeah that would be it it would be a lot.

Speaker:

Of characters for him though.

Speaker:

Speaker:

It's going to catch on to.

Speaker:

Apricot or apricot because it is a beer or a beer.

Speaker:

That's for another episode, I think.

Speaker:

But I'm just.

Speaker:

I want you to just let it simmer for a bit,

Speaker:

because we need to figure that out.

Speaker:

But I'll give it.

Speaker:

If it's my last name.

Speaker:

I would like it to be a beer.

Speaker:

Or you know, it.

Speaker:

It's you and it's yours and you get to claim it.

Speaker:

So always the hard way. Greg All

Speaker:

nothing.

Speaker:

Soft over there, that's for sure.

Speaker:

No, you're welcome.

Speaker:

We got it.

Speaker:

Wow. I feel like it's time to move on,

Speaker:

so go ahead.

Speaker:

That's it.

Speaker:

You going to dig us out of this, or do I need to?

Speaker:

Ivy's along for the ride. I'm done.

Speaker:

I can't breathe.

Speaker:

I'm done. Mike's going.

Speaker:

It's insane.

Speaker:

All right, let me.

Speaker:

Let me dig us out of this hole.

Speaker:

Let's do a little Ludacris libation.

Speaker:

Laura, this one comes from Iowa, a place I have no intention of visiting the.

Speaker:

Largest truckstop in the world in Iowa.

Speaker:

Oh, well, in that case, I'm still not going to visit.

Speaker:

Perfect.

Speaker:

I don't know. It's just.

Speaker:

For drug burn or. Sorry.

Speaker:

Dead might stop.

Speaker:

In Iowa, an owner of a venue that sells alcohol

Speaker:

cannot legally have a drink after closing for business.

Speaker:

And this also applies to all employees.

Speaker:

To to no shows in for business.

Speaker:

No shift in like no no work beers.

Speaker:

No work beers. No shift is. Interesting.

Speaker:

Why work at an alcohol?

Speaker:

Well, well, why are you working there?

Speaker:

After closing.

Speaker:

Erica nailed it. It's after closing. Who cares?

Speaker:

Geez, that's almost as bad as New Jersey.

Speaker:

That's crazy.

Speaker:

Yeah. Nothing is ever as bad as New Jersey.

Speaker:

I feel like.

Speaker:

All my ludicrous libation law ever could just be New Jersey now.

Speaker:

Yeah. Just come up with a new segment.

Speaker:

How can New Jersey be shittier?

Speaker:

Well. Well, the answer is they can.

Speaker:

So they've they've hit rock bottom.

Speaker:

But yeah, we should have a segment called Hey Jersey.

Speaker:

Fuck you.

Speaker:

And I'm not even going to start.

Speaker:

I'm not even going to start this one.

Speaker:

Here are accents that start somewhere and.

Speaker:

Invest in booze.

Speaker:

At some point.

Speaker:

It sounds Cuban.

Speaker:

It's now I feel like mine starts Long Island.

Speaker:

And then I think I'm like Boston and then it just stays Long Island and.

Speaker:

You know, at some points I can feel like I feel like my accent is Boston.

Speaker:

And then I talk to beer

Speaker:

girl Melissa and I'm like, Oh, no, no, it sounds just like her.

Speaker:

It sounds just like her.

Speaker:

It's very boring at all.

Speaker:

And that's why Finland loves us.

Speaker:

They cannot tell the difference and there is no clue.

Speaker:

Like we don't know.

Speaker:

We don't know.

Speaker:

But they nailed it. Nail that. Yeah.

Speaker:

Good job. Yeah, they're just like, these guys are dumb.

Speaker:

We laugh at them because they're great.

Speaker:

Yeah, he's so articulate. Good job.

Speaker:

Yeah, it's perfect. Yeah.

Speaker:

I hope they're not trying to learn English from me now.

Speaker:

They're the worst idea.

Speaker:

Or should they be like they really should?

Speaker:

There's walking around like I'm drinking that little beer.

Speaker:

I'm like, Huh? You learn English from grace.

Speaker:

Sorry, wasn't even funny.

Speaker:

But let's talk.

Speaker:

Beer, Steph, instead of I sound like Busta Rhymes.

Speaker:

But anyways. Okay, sorry too.

Speaker:

Sorry.

Speaker:

Not sorry. Anyways.

Speaker:

Draft sales.

Speaker:

Draft beer sales are up 21%

Speaker:

for NFL's opening weekend over last year.

Speaker:

Why do you think that is?

Speaker:

I think because people are more comfortable going out to bars.

Speaker:

Agreed. Okay. I might need to.

Speaker:

Either are more comfortable or they're just tired of not going out to bars.

Speaker:

One of the other same. Yeah.

Speaker:

Both Yeah. A little bit.

Speaker:

Yeah, sure.

Speaker:

Good job, everybody.

Speaker:

The Consumer Price Index for some bad news for beer at home.

Yeah, a month.

Speaker:

Just horrible.

Speaker:

My favorite was a couple months ago.

Like, okay, that's the wrong way to say it.

Speaker:

It stopped growing.

Speaker:

It's now evened out as bullshit.

Speaker:

I was just saying my favorite was that

Speaker:

Oh, to just make our own

Speaker:

and the whole CO2 shortage, just do it.

Speaker:

Old school.

Speaker:

You could carb by adding sugar to the finished beer and it'll carb itself and.

Speaker:

Okay, we'll be drunk over here. Don't worry.

Speaker:

That's the bottom. Line. See what happens.

Speaker:

I'm not having. The explosions in the process, but it's all right.

Speaker:

You nailed it.

Speaker:

All right, let's talk about your beer by sign.

Speaker:

Erica, what's your astrological sign?

Speaker:

You would never guess this because I don't think I thought my sign.

Speaker:

And anything about. My guy.

Speaker:

Speaker:

Erica, you as a Scorpio are a Guinness.

Speaker:

Okay, okay.

Speaker:

That's the best. That's the best one.

Speaker:

Well, it gets worse.

Speaker:

Come here. Flex. What's your sign?

Speaker:

The 69 one.

Speaker:

What is Leo? No.

Speaker:

The cancer's. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker:

I don't know what it is.

Speaker:

A little Burmese, isn't it?

Speaker:

That kind of like an inflection.

Speaker:

It's absolutely sperm.

Speaker:

You write something.

Speaker:

Sperm, it's a beer.

Speaker:

And a sperm is

Speaker:

no cancer.

Speaker:

Yeah, see, this is.

Speaker:

It gets significantly worse.

Speaker:

Your beer is Blue Moon. Yeah.

Speaker:

Oh, that's all that is.

Speaker:

Literally my least favorite beer.

Speaker:

Like on the planet with us.

Speaker:

One, baby. All right, well.

Speaker:

This is probably my least favorite beer.

Speaker:

And it's my beer as a Leo.

Speaker:

Uh, Corona.

Speaker:

Oh, grow.

Speaker:

How you guys?

Speaker:

If I can keep Mexican beer, Corona is last on the list.

Speaker:

I'm going like, Pacifica or Dodecanese or.

Speaker:

I tell you what, I'd still rather have a Corona over a bull, a blue moon.

Speaker:

And I would rather have a blue moon and a corona over Guinness.

Speaker:

Honestly, I'm not a real thick beer drinker, so

Speaker:

I think that this is like your nemesis.

Speaker:

Beer is what this really is. And the let's was wrong.

Speaker:

Sounds like you know what? Terrible.

Speaker:

Horrible history.

Speaker:

Well,

Speaker:

no. Well, here, I'll I'll run through them real quick.

Speaker:

Cans, modelo.

Speaker:

Ooh, I could.

Speaker:

Use them for high life.

Speaker:

Oh, not bad.

Speaker:

At least in my life.

Speaker:

Gemini, Budweiser grows, of course.

Speaker:

Cancer, Blue Moon and Leo Corona.

Speaker:

Virgo, Michelob Ultra.

Speaker:

Got. No carbs.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Libra, PBR, classic, of course.

Speaker:

Guinness, Sagittarius, Sapporo, which I'll drink with some soup.

Speaker:

Yeah, that's not bad.

Speaker:

Yeah, actually, this is probably the best beer right here.

Speaker:

Capricorn if you only Capricorns out there.

Speaker:

Yuengling I've never had.

Speaker:

Like it's like actually craft.

Speaker:

It they merged with more with cause.

Speaker:

It's.

Speaker:

It's I. Think it's ads it's great.

Speaker:

Think it's technical.

Speaker:

Yeah. I don't know any more.

Speaker:

And then Aquarius.

Speaker:

Stella, Pisces, Heineken.

Speaker:

And that's it.

Speaker:

Those are gross.

Speaker:

Yeah. Wow. Capricorn wins for sure.

Speaker:

An untapped came up with this. Oh, I'm thinking the modelo.

Speaker:

This was not untapped.

Speaker:

Oh, this is now modelo better than you going.

Speaker:

I love me. So Modelo.

Speaker:

Hmm I feel. The Mexican beer.

Speaker:

I think my top is probably toast.

Speaker:

Now, does it.

Speaker:

Go well of those seconds Pacific?

Speaker:

Go somewhere in there. Oh, we all agree. So.

Speaker:

Yeah, but no matter what it is, it's not Corona.

Speaker:

I have to say guilty pleasure beer.

Speaker:

Because you never asked me that question

Speaker:

because you kind of move from that question when I came around.

Speaker:

Is a corona light because I I'm just saying, I hope you still have me back.

Speaker:

Greg.

Speaker:

It's a corona light in Mexico.

Speaker:

Like I'm going to Kabul. Oh, Makati Light.

Speaker:

If you're in Mexico, you drink to catch a light.

Speaker:

Okay, I'll do that

Speaker:

one. I think it would sound weird

Speaker:

if we just take Erika's track and this entire show.

Speaker:

Yes, damn it. 110.

Speaker:

Percent of that answer.

Speaker:

I just don't know how we can move on from those assholes.

Speaker:

Oh, are you listening?

Speaker:

Oh, hey. Hello.

Speaker:

I'm still here.

Speaker:

I'm just saying we can't.

Speaker:

Oh, I'm so many good memories.

Speaker:

Corona light is better than Rona.

Speaker:

Is it? I don't.

Speaker:

I don't know if I've had a Corona light.

Speaker:

It's a little less is way less skunky.

Speaker:

12 for, like 12 bucks in Mexico on ice with, like, dead cockroaches in there.

Speaker:

I mean, it's just that memory

Speaker:

that's the same trip I came back with the Montezuma's Revenge.

Speaker:

I mean, there's just so many memories.

Speaker:

Yeah. So we've talked about our revenge.

Speaker:

Yes, exactly.

Speaker:

As so many memories.

Speaker:

It's just, you know, when you're broke as hell and you just need some cheap beer.

Speaker:

We got it on the honeymoon.

Speaker:

The Montezuma.

Speaker:

Yeah, right. Was great. So great.

Speaker:

I was drinking that so great.

Speaker:

So great.

Speaker:

Nothing will help you lose weight like. Someone who's.

Speaker:

Lost £5.

Speaker:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker:

Perfect planet.

Speaker:

Get it all back once it's done. But.

Speaker:

But for that week I was looking fucking great.

Speaker:

So I'll take your cones.

Speaker:

Which one would you take?

Speaker:

Flax out of three of us.

Speaker:

The blooming

Speaker:

people.

Speaker:

The real Sophie's. Choice.

Speaker:

Speaker:

That is a tough one. Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker:

Okay.

Speaker:

Well, the.

Speaker:

A tbh for my.

Speaker:

Bug hole.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Here's the Guinness I think, I think I would also take the Guinness

Speaker:

and I even like oh I don't like. It this year apparently.

Speaker:

Okay. Yeah, I'll take the Corona. The.

Speaker:

Most about Guinness.

Speaker:

I've never actually had a Guinness before until my best friend

Speaker:

came up last summer for my birthday.

Speaker:

And he likes Guinness, so I bought him some and some one left in the fridge.

Speaker:

After he left, he Loves he absolutely loves Guinness.

Speaker:

He just went to some Irish fest

Speaker:

up where he

Speaker:

lives and he basically just drink nothing but Guinness or two whole days.

Speaker:

Got some. Better.

Speaker:

Guinness and love summer sounds like torture so.

Speaker:

I had one left in my fridge and I was like, You know what?

Speaker:

I'm I'm going to drink it.

Speaker:

My body loves it.

Speaker:

I'm going to just drink the last can.

Speaker:

And the entire time drinking it, I was thinking myself

Speaker:

that I can't understand why anybody likes it.

Speaker:

Yeah, I'm just.

Speaker:

I'm. I'm just going to throw it out there.

Speaker:

I don't get it. Yeah.

Speaker:

And I've had it on tap at an Irish brewery

Speaker:

where they properly mix because the proper.

Speaker:

Of the nitro.

Speaker:

Mix is like I think it's 75% nitrogen, 25% CO2.

Speaker:

And there's, there's a bar out here

Speaker:

owned by an Irish dude and he properly mixes it

Speaker:

and I think that's the best way to have it.

Speaker:

But still, I just it's not my style.

Speaker:

No, I don't get I still yeah.

Speaker:

Well I will never understand the.

Speaker:

Yeah no not for me, not for me.

Speaker:

Never was.

Speaker:

Even when I drink shit beer like it just

Speaker:

was never my thing.

Speaker:

Give me the corona with the cockroach as the cooker.

Speaker:

I just.

Speaker:

I'm having

Speaker:

lime in a cockroach.

Speaker:

Yeah, the garages. Yeah.

Speaker:

Unreal. Well, well.

Speaker:

We will end it on this

Speaker:

teacher drives

Speaker:

drunk, gets into crash on the way to school.

Speaker:

This is not in Florida.

Speaker:

This was in Kentucky.

Speaker:

That is shocking.

Speaker:

I totally expected this to be Florida.

Speaker:

According to an arrest citation, a deputy was called to Garrett

Speaker:

Garrard, Jerrod High School on Tuesday morning for a report about a teacher

Speaker:

that him involved in a crash and was suspected of drinking.

Speaker:

Debbie said they saw 35 year old Chelsey Denny driving to the Gerard Garrard

Speaker:

County High School parking lot with damage to her vehicle.

Speaker:

Denny told the deputy that she had

Speaker:

lots a good excuse for crashing into a car.

Speaker:

Anybody. And we got. A spider drop in front of her.

Speaker:

Okay, that's good.

Speaker:

I had a quick story on that.

Speaker:

I've had spider eggs in my car, had like water

Speaker:

in the roof of my car while I'm driving down to Chicago then.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

That was that was a wreck. Well, I don't know.

Speaker:

I would say she was

Speaker:

drinking hot soup out of the can.

Speaker:

Okay.

Speaker:

Okay. Well, as Danny.

Speaker:

Told the deputy, she had dodged

Speaker:

a cat on the way to work, which caused her to wreck into another car.

Speaker:

But, of course, why would we stop after recording to another car?

Speaker:

We had to get to work.

Speaker:

When the deputy talked to Denny, they said she had slurred speech

Speaker:

and smelled of alcohol.

Speaker:

The deputy a Denny do a field sobriety test which the teacher failed.

Speaker:

Don't forget this was done at the school.

Speaker:

The citation said Denny had a blood alcohol level

Speaker:

of. .23.

Speaker:

That was pretty shocking.

Speaker:

Dead on to to to do now.

Speaker:

Yeah that was good.

Speaker:

2 to 2.

Speaker:

That's how. Almost three times. Of the lot.

Speaker:

Denny was taken into custody

Speaker:

on charge of operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol.

Speaker:

I don't know why she wasn't

Speaker:

taken into custody for being hammered at a fucking school.

Speaker:

You said something.

Speaker:

Denny should have taken a turn and gone to Denny's,

Speaker:

got herself some pancakes and eggs, or she.

Speaker:

Was sober you up like that?

Speaker:

Grand Slam. Grand Slam girl.

Speaker:

Do you remember when you used to be able to get the holographic Ken

Speaker:

Griffey Junior Card when you ordered the Grand Slam?

Speaker:

That was the shit. Yeah,

Speaker:

I actually

Speaker:

I can't believe I remember that, but yes,

Speaker:

that's hilarious.

Speaker:

That's amazing.

Speaker:

Thanks, Denise. Thanks for celebrating.

Speaker:

Thanks for the memories.

Speaker:

Speaker:
