00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:13,419
[intro music]

2
00:00:13,419 --> 00:00:20,050
Welcome in everybody, it's the Craft Beer Republic. Thanks for drinking, thanks

3
00:00:20,050 --> 00:00:22,060
for joining. I am Greg,

4
00:00:22,060 --> 00:00:26,230
and I am being joined by the maltiest fella on the fresh coast, and that is

5
00:00:26,230 --> 00:00:27,260
Flexy. What's up big

6
00:00:27,260 --> 00:00:32,719
fella? You know, just drinking and joining, or something. Yeah, a lot of malty

7
00:00:32,719 --> 00:00:33,659
beers lately,

8
00:00:33,659 --> 00:00:39,460
though. Yeah, which is actually, so you know me pretty well, not my thing. I

9
00:00:39,460 --> 00:00:40,700
know, very supportive.

10
00:00:40,700 --> 00:00:48,719
Not my thing. Right. But not my go-to. Sure, but usually it's a little hazier.

11
00:00:48,719 --> 00:00:49,740
It is one of my

12
00:00:49,740 --> 00:00:54,939
favorite times of the year, so. Yes. We'll get into that in a couple of few. A

13
00:00:54,939 --> 00:00:56,219
lot to get to

14
00:00:56,219 --> 00:01:03,100
today. I did a little extra curricular research, if you will. That was hard to

15
00:01:03,100 --> 00:01:03,979
say for some reason.

16
00:01:03,979 --> 00:01:09,729
Well, now I'm extra curious. We got a voicemail, we've got some booze news to

17
00:01:09,729 --> 00:01:11,420
get to, and yeah,

18
00:01:11,420 --> 00:01:16,699
so let's get right into it. Let's crack things off with asking a very important

19
00:01:16,699 --> 00:01:17,659
question.

20
00:01:17,659 --> 00:01:23,980
In a world where craft beer is king, a world where muscles are bigger than grow

21
00:01:23,980 --> 00:01:24,480
lers,

22
00:01:25,019 --> 00:01:32,140
only one tongue can guide us. One man. One tongue. One Tongue Jobber.

23
00:01:32,140 --> 00:01:38,939
In this world, we must find out, what is Flex drinking?

24
00:01:38,939 --> 00:01:43,489
Well, roll out the barrel.

25
00:01:45,950 --> 00:01:50,109
That's the song we sing at brewery games. Oh, okay. Seventh inning stretch. Oh,

26
00:01:50,109 --> 00:01:50,670
it's not taking

27
00:01:50,670 --> 00:01:53,430
me out to the ballgame. So they do to take me out to the ballgame and roll up

28
00:01:53,430 --> 00:01:53,950
the barrel.

29
00:01:53,950 --> 00:02:02,510
Roll out the barrel. Sing us a song of good cheer. Roll out the barrel. Nah,

30
00:02:02,510 --> 00:02:03,310
you're dumb.

31
00:02:03,310 --> 00:02:09,080
Sorry. It's like a polka Polish thing. Yeah, it tracks. Yeah. Pretty South side

32
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:09,710
of Wisconsin.

33
00:02:11,229 --> 00:02:18,500
Well, any weasels. We on that roll. We drink in that Oktoberfest. Can't stop,

34
00:02:18,500 --> 00:02:19,069
won't stop.

35
00:02:19,069 --> 00:02:26,509
I like the name. And today, so I'm doing the MKE Brewing Oktoberfest. I talked

36
00:02:26,509 --> 00:02:27,789
about it last week.

37
00:02:27,789 --> 00:02:32,620
I did not rank it in my rankings because I knew I was going to have it on this

38
00:02:32,620 --> 00:02:33,310
show.

39
00:02:33,310 --> 00:02:39,900
So this on the front of the can, first of all, this can art, it's simple. It's

40
00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:40,270
great.

41
00:02:40,270 --> 00:02:46,189
It is very German Oktoberfest. Yep. Gets the job done. It is great. And this

42
00:02:46,189 --> 00:02:47,389
one does say it is a

43
00:02:47,389 --> 00:02:54,189
Minertzen style lager. Says our Oktoberfest is traditionally brewed with pale

44
00:02:54,189 --> 00:02:55,150
ale, caramel,

45
00:02:55,150 --> 00:03:00,560
and toasted Munich malts that attribute a sweet, earthy, multi-flavor, toasted

46
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:00,990
aroma,

47
00:03:00,990 --> 00:03:08,650
and a bright orange hue. So this beer, it's got that coppery, brown, orange,

48
00:03:08,650 --> 00:03:09,150
classic.

49
00:03:09,469 --> 00:03:14,319
Mm hmm. Mierten style color. The correct color. And the old sniffer, it's it's

50
00:03:14,319 --> 00:03:15,469
kind of light.

51
00:03:15,469 --> 00:03:21,340
Not a huge aroma here. Slightly malty, I would say. A little bit of sweetness

52
00:03:21,340 --> 00:03:22,509
behind that,

53
00:03:22,509 --> 00:03:29,460
which makes sense from the sugars. Mm hmm. So then we'll get the warm up the

54
00:03:29,460 --> 00:03:29,870
old

55
00:03:29,870 --> 00:03:41,469
Zungenjammer. Yeah. OK. OK. So comparing to last week's where I said not a lot

56
00:03:41,469 --> 00:03:42,349
of carbonation,

57
00:03:42,349 --> 00:03:48,939
this one's a little bit more carbonated. I don't know what does that because I

58
00:03:48,939 --> 00:03:49,629
don't know how to

59
00:03:49,629 --> 00:03:55,469
brew beer. Sure. It is. Add more carbonation. It has a lot. I shouldn't say a

60
00:03:55,469 --> 00:03:58,270
lot. Last week's

61
00:03:58,270 --> 00:04:02,669
beer, the Eagle Park, did not have a lot of that roasty toasty. This one, as I

62
00:04:02,669 --> 00:04:03,389
dive in again,

63
00:04:03,389 --> 00:04:09,759
it is there. It is like it's like perfect. Like perfect. I don't even know how

64
00:04:09,759 --> 00:04:10,750
else to describe

65
00:04:10,750 --> 00:04:16,550
it other than like perfectly balanced roastiness to the caramel flavor, like

66
00:04:16,550 --> 00:04:18,189
the sweet. It's like

67
00:04:18,189 --> 00:04:21,790
this is really good. I think I can help you describe this.

68
00:04:21,790 --> 00:04:27,800
Dieses Oktoberfest schmeckt mir köstlich auf der Zunge. Yeah. Mm hmm. What

69
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:28,350
what she said,

70
00:04:28,350 --> 00:04:34,550
she said, this Oktoberfest is delicious on my tongue, Jabber. Oh, Zungenjabber.

71
00:04:34,550 --> 00:04:36,029
Yeah. I don't

72
00:04:36,029 --> 00:04:42,240
know. This is really well done. It doesn't have anything imported German, it

73
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:42,990
says, but

74
00:04:42,990 --> 00:04:50,100
it's fucking delicious. It's all you need. Like, it's absolutely classic of the

75
00:04:50,100 --> 00:04:50,750
style.

76
00:04:50,750 --> 00:04:57,149
And to put it in my rankings. Oh, yes. I'd say it takes the third spot. Oh,

77
00:04:57,149 --> 00:05:02,350
time marks. Yes, because I never really talked about this raised grain beer I

78
00:05:02,350 --> 00:05:03,069
had.

79
00:05:03,069 --> 00:05:08,110
And I'm just going to dive into it a little bit. Sure. So I drank out of a can

80
00:05:08,110 --> 00:05:09,069
and I usually pour

81
00:05:09,069 --> 00:05:13,300
all my stuff out. You get more of it. Yeah. We're nerds. It breathes a little

82
00:05:13,300 --> 00:05:15,790
bit. So I crushed two

83
00:05:15,790 --> 00:05:21,470
of these 16 ounces and it was like the breadiness at the end. Like, you know,

84
00:05:21,470 --> 00:05:22,350
when you drink like a

85
00:05:22,350 --> 00:05:29,470
like a Pilsner lager and you got the breadiness, that crackery, it was like

86
00:05:29,470 --> 00:05:30,190
full of that on the

87
00:05:30,190 --> 00:05:34,110
end and I couldn't get enough of it. And I just thought it was such a great

88
00:05:34,110 --> 00:05:36,189
flavor to bring into

89
00:05:36,189 --> 00:05:40,939
the malts, the roasted malts and the caramel. And then you finish off with the

90
00:05:40,939 --> 00:05:41,949
breadiness and it

91
00:05:41,949 --> 00:05:46,670
just tasted so good together. And that's why it sits at number two of my list.

92
00:05:46,670 --> 00:05:48,350
Pretty good. Yeah.

93
00:05:48,350 --> 00:05:53,870
Remind everybody that Third Space was so far the worst. You don't get them out

94
00:05:53,870 --> 00:05:54,589
there. They're

95
00:05:54,589 --> 00:05:58,910
local to us, but it was just a lot. The worst with a U?

96
00:05:58,910 --> 00:06:05,699
Well, then it's the versed. The versed, yeah. Oh, you the best too? Yeah? How

97
00:06:05,699 --> 00:06:06,589
about the versed too?

98
00:06:09,069 --> 00:06:13,470
Well, Verna, I too am drinking in Oktoberfest today. We'll get to that in a

99
00:06:13,470 --> 00:06:14,029
little bit,

100
00:06:14,029 --> 00:06:20,250
but 'tis the season. 'Tis been the season. Yeah. As we discussed with Erica a

101
00:06:20,250 --> 00:06:21,389
couple of weeks ago,

102
00:06:21,389 --> 00:06:26,509
as the season, which I'm still waiting for, happens to cool down a little,

103
00:06:26,509 --> 00:06:30,910
you're in that perfect combination of like, let's have some Oktoberfest beers,

104
00:06:30,910 --> 00:06:31,949
but also

105
00:06:31,949 --> 00:06:37,290
some IPA, some pails, some stouts at night. Ah, it's fucking perfect. Perfect

106
00:06:37,290 --> 00:06:38,110
beer drinking time.

107
00:06:38,110 --> 00:06:44,189
That's where we're at now. See, not in California. Not yet. So it's like during

108
00:06:44,189 --> 00:06:45,069
the day today,

109
00:06:45,069 --> 00:06:51,399
it was like mid to high 70s. And let me just check the weather right now. It's

110
00:06:51,399 --> 00:06:53,230
a balmy 60 degrees.

111
00:06:53,230 --> 00:06:59,959
That sounds glorious. It is 843 here. As we record, the current temperature is

112
00:06:59,959 --> 00:07:01,069
74 degrees.

113
00:07:01,069 --> 00:07:05,949
That's not bad. That's not the worst. It says it feels like 58 right now,

114
00:07:05,949 --> 00:07:06,449
though.

115
00:07:07,790 --> 00:07:11,550
Oh, speaking of hot places, shout out to our top listing city of last week,

116
00:07:11,550 --> 00:07:18,040
the new one for us, Decatur, Georgia. Oh yeah. What up, Decatur? Yeah. What's

117
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:18,589
up, dogs?

118
00:07:18,589 --> 00:07:27,310
It's dog country. You sound like a Bron Breaker. Oh, gross.

119
00:07:27,310 --> 00:07:34,870
Not a fan. Oh, not a fan. No, Bron. No. Yeah. He's whatever. Yeah. Not a

120
00:07:34,870 --> 00:07:35,389
wrestling show,

121
00:07:35,389 --> 00:07:37,970
but why don't they just package him as a Steiner? Why'd they have to give him a

122
00:07:37,970 --> 00:07:38,750
whole new name?

123
00:07:38,750 --> 00:07:44,889
Because Rick Steiner was canceled. He was? Yeah, like two years ago. Oh, for

124
00:07:44,889 --> 00:07:45,230
what?

125
00:07:45,230 --> 00:07:52,350
I couldn't remember if it was racist or misogynistic. Oh, I didn't know that.

126
00:07:52,350 --> 00:07:52,510
Oh,

127
00:07:52,510 --> 00:07:56,910
because they showed Rick and Scott at an event recently. Yeah. But yeah, Rick

128
00:07:56,910 --> 00:07:57,310
Steiner was

129
00:07:57,310 --> 00:08:02,800
canceled. Oh, who knew? Well, not a wrestling show. I was unaware. Oh yeah. So

130
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:03,550
that's why he

131
00:08:03,550 --> 00:08:08,129
was not packaged as a Steiner. Got it. Makes a little more sense now. All right

132
00:08:08,129 --> 00:08:08,829
. Back to the

133
00:08:08,829 --> 00:08:15,480
beer stuff. So I did some traveling for work and was up in San Francisco. Spent

134
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:16,589
a few days up there.

135
00:08:16,589 --> 00:08:21,830
We had to go meet with one of our clients and usually I'm up there by myself.

136
00:08:21,830 --> 00:08:22,589
My boss was up

137
00:08:22,589 --> 00:08:27,269
there too, which, you know, it's fine because, you know, we hang out, not hang

138
00:08:27,269 --> 00:08:27,949
out, but we do

139
00:08:27,949 --> 00:08:31,160
our work things and we usually go our separate ways. One of the days we were

140
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:31,709
coming back from

141
00:08:31,709 --> 00:08:34,850
our work thing, he goes, Hey, you know what? I'd like to offer you the

142
00:08:34,850 --> 00:08:35,870
invitation to go out to

143
00:08:35,870 --> 00:08:39,389
dinner with, which means, you know, like free dinner, obviously. How awkward is

144
00:08:39,389 --> 00:08:39,870
that? How he

145
00:08:39,870 --> 00:08:43,389
phrases it? Not quite that, but you know, it's like, Hey, you know, we haven't

146
00:08:43,389 --> 00:08:43,789
really gotten

147
00:08:43,789 --> 00:08:50,600
to do anything. There's this great seafood place. Good, sir. My share of a

148
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,710
concern place with to my

149
00:08:53,710 --> 00:09:00,110
who I pay be willing to. Well, the weird part is pressure. Well, that's what he

150
00:09:00,110 --> 00:09:01,389
said. It wasn't as

151
00:09:01,389 --> 00:09:04,080
awkward as I made it sound, but he did at one point, like no pressure. I know I

152
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:04,590
'm your boss.

153
00:09:04,590 --> 00:09:10,669
I'm like, it's still pressure. Like no Bosco fuckers. You know, like what am I

154
00:09:10,669 --> 00:09:11,710
supposed to do?

155
00:09:11,710 --> 00:09:15,309
So I accepted. And then later on that day, he's like, I'm so tired. I'm just,

156
00:09:15,309 --> 00:09:19,309
I can't go out to, I'm so sorry. I have to rescind my invitation. I was like,

157
00:09:19,309 --> 00:09:24,090
Oh, shucks. Like thumbs up. Thanks. It's not that he's a bad guy. I just, you

158
00:09:24,090 --> 00:09:24,349
know,

159
00:09:24,349 --> 00:09:29,950
can I get your card though? Cause you kind of promised me, I mean, you know,

160
00:09:29,950 --> 00:09:31,389
business expenses

161
00:09:31,389 --> 00:09:33,899
are paid for because it's a business trip, right? You know, I'm not going to go

162
00:09:33,899 --> 00:09:35,149
to a fancy place

163
00:09:35,149 --> 00:09:39,070
without his card. Like he was going to take me to. Right. So anyways, I mean,

164
00:09:39,070 --> 00:09:39,549
and he's not a

165
00:09:39,549 --> 00:09:42,179
bad guy to hang out with so much, just, which weird. It's my boss. And you know

166
00:09:42,179 --> 00:09:43,230
, I like to go,

167
00:09:43,230 --> 00:09:46,029
yeah, maybe have a couple of beers and not be looked at like an alcoholic. So

168
00:09:46,029 --> 00:09:50,419
have the night to myself, which is great. And I've talked about Blackhammer on

169
00:09:50,419 --> 00:09:52,029
the show before. Yep.

170
00:09:52,029 --> 00:09:54,990
Enjoyed them very much. Brought some back, all that good stuff. Great things

171
00:09:54,990 --> 00:09:55,710
about them.

172
00:09:55,710 --> 00:10:01,070
Yeah. Well, I found about two and a half miles from my hotel or a screwdriver.

173
00:10:01,070 --> 00:10:01,389
What is that?

174
00:10:01,389 --> 00:10:10,519
Oh, Blackhammer. You got me. No, it was called a Vilkeman, but the beer, it was

175
00:10:10,519 --> 00:10:10,830
, it was owned

176
00:10:10,830 --> 00:10:14,659
by Blackhammer. So the beer is all Blackhammer beer. Cool. And they have like

177
00:10:14,659 --> 00:10:15,470
German food,

178
00:10:15,470 --> 00:10:20,929
a bunch of sausages, you know, brats and worse and sauerkraut and all this

179
00:10:20,929 --> 00:10:21,710
Germany things.

180
00:10:22,350 --> 00:10:26,539
And so I, I walked two and a half miles to Vilkeman. So it's like a German beer

181
00:10:26,539 --> 00:10:26,990
hall

182
00:10:26,990 --> 00:10:30,389
kind of thing. Yeah. But they have all the, all the beers that Blackhammer has.

183
00:10:30,389 --> 00:10:31,149
So, you know,

184
00:10:31,149 --> 00:10:34,730
you get an IPA or, you know, whatever you want, you don't just have German

185
00:10:34,730 --> 00:10:35,870
beers on town, but

186
00:10:35,870 --> 00:10:41,110
there are German beers on town and, uh, had this fucking delicious sausage

187
00:10:41,110 --> 00:10:42,750
plate. It was fucking

188
00:10:42,750 --> 00:10:47,669
amazing. And, uh, I sat down to eat and had a beer with me and guy walks over,

189
00:10:47,669 --> 00:10:48,750
Hey, you playing

190
00:10:48,750 --> 00:10:53,009
trivia? I was like, no, man, I'm by myself. I mean, we all know that. Like we

191
00:10:53,009 --> 00:10:53,950
go out with Deb and

192
00:10:53,950 --> 00:10:57,490
Brian and play trivia all the time, but second place. Yeah, exactly. Second

193
00:10:57,490 --> 00:10:58,509
place. We got first

194
00:10:58,509 --> 00:11:02,730
place last week and it felt so good. Cause all the teams we hate were there and

195
00:11:02,730 --> 00:11:03,549
we beat fucking

196
00:11:03,549 --> 00:11:06,730
all of them. Not that we hate people, but I was like, no, I'm, I'm good. I'm

197
00:11:06,730 --> 00:11:08,029
just, I'm by myself

198
00:11:08,029 --> 00:11:11,669
having a couple of beers and some dinner. He's like, ah, just play. And you

199
00:11:11,669 --> 00:11:12,509
know, if you gotta

200
00:11:12,509 --> 00:11:15,149
go, you gotta go. I'm not going to hold you here. And I was like, yeah, all

201
00:11:15,149 --> 00:11:16,269
right, fine. I'll play.

202
00:11:16,269 --> 00:11:22,230
So I played by myself. Uh, my, my team in quotes name was, uh, last man

203
00:11:22,230 --> 00:11:24,350
drinking, which apparently

204
00:11:24,350 --> 00:11:27,590
he loved. He's like, Oh, that's such a great name. I was like, you are not that

205
00:11:27,590 --> 00:11:28,669
funny of a person.

206
00:11:28,669 --> 00:11:33,590
He's not. No, he made it very, it made us all very aware that he's a standup

207
00:11:33,590 --> 00:11:34,750
comedian on the side.

208
00:11:34,750 --> 00:11:42,669
And I was like, ah, okay. His level of humor was not very great. In fact, I got

209
00:11:42,669 --> 00:11:43,549
him laughing so

210
00:11:43,549 --> 00:11:46,700
hard that he's like, well, clearly I'm in the wrong business. You should be the

211
00:11:46,700 --> 00:11:47,309
comedian.

212
00:11:47,309 --> 00:11:52,610
I was like, wow, we were in San Francisco. The A's game is on the A's are still

213
00:11:52,610 --> 00:11:53,230
in Oakland for

214
00:11:53,230 --> 00:11:57,019
the rest of the season. And they're showing the game, not fucking anybody in

215
00:11:57,019 --> 00:11:58,190
that crowd. I mean,

216
00:11:58,190 --> 00:12:02,350
legit must've been like 300 people in the entire stadium. It was so empty. Did

217
00:12:02,350 --> 00:12:03,230
you hear recently

218
00:12:03,230 --> 00:12:08,850
about that Chicago White Sox double header where they had 98 total fans? Really

219
00:12:08,850 --> 00:12:09,549
? Yeah. That's what

220
00:12:09,549 --> 00:12:14,259
this looked like. I mean, there's nobody even behind home plate. And so he said

221
00:12:14,259 --> 00:12:15,149
something,

222
00:12:15,149 --> 00:12:18,559
Oh, the manager, the A's manager came out with Yano and the umpires. And he

223
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:19,309
said something about

224
00:12:19,309 --> 00:12:22,389
like, Oh man, I guess he looks angry. And I was like, yeah, they just told him

225
00:12:22,389 --> 00:12:23,309
what the attendance

226
00:12:23,309 --> 00:12:27,450
count was. And he lost his shit laughing. He's like, that's, that's the one. He

227
00:12:27,450 --> 00:12:27,950
's like, that's

228
00:12:27,950 --> 00:12:31,169
the best joke of the night. You should be the comedian. I was like, clearly if

229
00:12:31,169 --> 00:12:31,870
that's the best

230
00:12:31,870 --> 00:12:39,240
joke of the night, yeah. Maybe take up trivia as a full-time job. Overall. Nice

231
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:40,509
guy. I had a good

232
00:12:40,509 --> 00:12:44,610
time at trivia. I did not get last middle of the road, which was fine for being

233
00:12:44,610 --> 00:12:45,549
by myself. I'll

234
00:12:45,549 --> 00:12:51,009
take it. Uh, once again, beer was delicious. And of course the, uh, the sausage

235
00:12:51,009 --> 00:12:51,710
plate was

236
00:12:51,710 --> 00:12:57,309
chef's kiss. So good sausage, dude. It had, first of all, yeah, you do a couple

237
00:12:57,309 --> 00:12:57,870
of different types

238
00:12:57,870 --> 00:13:02,100
of sausage, a little mustard, had some cheese. It was like a protein plate kind

239
00:13:02,100 --> 00:13:03,389
of thing. Like

240
00:13:03,389 --> 00:13:09,070
had some cheese slices, had some pickled veggies. Uh, it was fucking good. So

241
00:13:09,070 --> 00:13:10,830
good. Hell yeah. Yeah.

242
00:13:10,830 --> 00:13:17,230
So, uh, what else? Oh, we went out. Oh man. We went out with Deb and Brian over

243
00:13:17,230 --> 00:13:17,629
the weekend,

244
00:13:17,629 --> 00:13:21,070
the wife and I. Okay. We, we, you know, we'd met up for trivia. Like, Hey, we

245
00:13:21,070 --> 00:13:21,549
should hang out

246
00:13:21,549 --> 00:13:25,120
Saturday and maybe go like Dave and busters. Do you guys have Dave and busters

247
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:26,429
out there? Oh yeah.

248
00:13:26,429 --> 00:13:30,110
Yeah. It was like Chuck E. Cheese for adults. And, uh, so you know, we don't,

249
00:13:30,110 --> 00:13:30,669
that's not something

250
00:13:30,669 --> 00:13:36,440
we normally do. We went to Dave and busters and, uh, got absolutely shit. They

251
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:37,629
usually have good

252
00:13:37,629 --> 00:13:42,669
drink specials. Well, they have horrible beer options. Um, but they did, as we

253
00:13:42,669 --> 00:13:43,470
walked in,

254
00:13:43,470 --> 00:13:47,620
we, we of course hit the bar first and they had this sign that they were doing

255
00:13:47,620 --> 00:13:48,669
like Jell-O shots

256
00:13:48,669 --> 00:13:54,190
two for one. So our old asses did Jell-O and they weren't just shots. They were

257
00:13:54,190 --> 00:13:55,230
like the syringe

258
00:13:55,230 --> 00:14:00,580
shooters, you know? Okay. So we did around a Jell-O shots, had some beers. The

259
00:14:00,580 --> 00:14:01,149
girls had some

260
00:14:01,149 --> 00:14:05,120
mixed drinks, played some games, had some more drinks, played some games, had

261
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:06,110
some more drinks,

262
00:14:06,110 --> 00:14:10,450
got a little tired of doing all that. So we walked across the parking lot to E

263
00:14:10,450 --> 00:14:11,309
ureka brewing,

264
00:14:11,309 --> 00:14:15,149
each had a cup, more beers. And then they close it like 10. It was like, well,

265
00:14:15,149 --> 00:14:15,789
what do we do now?

266
00:14:15,789 --> 00:14:19,629
Mike, let's go back to Dave and busters. Cause they close it like two. Come on.

267
00:14:19,629 --> 00:14:20,029
Went back to

268
00:14:20,029 --> 00:14:27,669
Dave and busters, had a few more drinks. Brian ran into a former boss while we

269
00:14:27,669 --> 00:14:30,029
were there. Uber

270
00:14:30,029 --> 00:14:34,570
haul, like Uber was hard to get that night. It was like, you know, 1230 and

271
00:14:34,570 --> 00:14:35,870
there were no Ubers

272
00:14:35,870 --> 00:14:39,789
out in our area. That's cause nobody was at the A's game. That was up North.

273
00:14:39,789 --> 00:14:40,830
There's no A's game

274
00:14:40,830 --> 00:14:45,039
down here. This is back down here. Uh, and so we ended up having to do the

275
00:14:45,039 --> 00:14:46,190
thing where like we

276
00:14:46,190 --> 00:14:49,470
added a stop to ours just so Brian and Deb could get home. Cause like their

277
00:14:49,470 --> 00:14:50,269
Uber kept going the

278
00:14:50,269 --> 00:14:54,190
wrong way. I was like, just cancel your shit. We'll we'll add a stop and did

279
00:14:54,190 --> 00:14:56,110
all that. I didn't

280
00:14:56,110 --> 00:14:59,909
even know you could do that. Oh yeah. Once, once like they accept the ride, you

281
00:14:59,909 --> 00:15:00,590
can edit it and

282
00:15:00,590 --> 00:15:04,860
then add a stop that we, we do that sometimes. But, um, but yeah, so it was, it

283
00:15:04,860 --> 00:15:05,629
was good times.

284
00:15:05,629 --> 00:15:09,840
We got fucking chittered. Like it was one of those, you know, we didn't like

285
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:10,670
pound drinks

286
00:15:10,670 --> 00:15:16,000
and the jello shots, but man, we just kept going. It sounds like I'd be dead.

287
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:16,830
Yeah. We just kept

288
00:15:16,830 --> 00:15:19,980
going. It was like all night, you know, we had some snacks at one point, but it

289
00:15:19,980 --> 00:15:20,750
was good times.

290
00:15:20,750 --> 00:15:25,470
You got, got drunk and played some video games. Well, that's a, I mean, so it's

291
00:15:25,470 --> 00:15:26,190
football season's

292
00:15:26,190 --> 00:15:31,059
coming up, right? Not a football show, not a football show. Uh, had my big

293
00:15:31,059 --> 00:15:32,269
fantasy football

294
00:15:32,269 --> 00:15:39,450
draft though. And, uh, it takes place at a local bar. Okay. Cause we have a lot

295
00:15:39,450 --> 00:15:40,269
of those here.

296
00:15:40,909 --> 00:15:49,179
Yeah. Um, I drank a lot, like more than I drink in, I don't know, I would say

297
00:15:49,179 --> 00:15:51,070
the last easily

298
00:15:51,070 --> 00:15:55,620
before COVID. So let's say like five years, I woke up and I, I got home and I

299
00:15:55,620 --> 00:15:56,590
was expecting

300
00:15:56,590 --> 00:16:02,149
to feel like shit. I knew going to bed, I was expecting to wake up feeling like

301
00:16:02,149 --> 00:16:03,149
a bag of dicks

302
00:16:03,149 --> 00:16:08,470
and I had to work the next day and just totally like, I knew what I was getting

303
00:16:08,470 --> 00:16:09,710
myself into.

304
00:16:09,710 --> 00:16:15,230
I don't know what happened, what my body did. I woke up like a fucking champ.

305
00:16:15,230 --> 00:16:22,429
That's the best, not one ounce of headache, no stomach issues. I was a little

306
00:16:22,429 --> 00:16:23,470
bit tired

307
00:16:23,470 --> 00:16:29,240
and I thought if I maybe just had one hour extra sleep, I would have felt like

308
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:30,350
100%. God,

309
00:16:30,350 --> 00:16:35,139
that's the best. But it was like for, it was like six beers, six shots. Wow.

310
00:16:35,139 --> 00:16:36,269
That's a lot of hooch

311
00:16:36,269 --> 00:16:41,649
for me. Yes. Six shots. Six, six shots. That's the thing. Like six beers. No

312
00:16:41,649 --> 00:16:43,070
big deal. Yeah.

313
00:16:43,070 --> 00:16:47,470
But if you start adding that liquor into my diet, I'm horrible with liquor.

314
00:16:47,470 --> 00:16:55,149
Same. That is when I get completely fucked up. Puking is the only option.

315
00:16:55,149 --> 00:17:02,640
Resistance is futile. Right. And I don't even know what happened. It was like

316
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:03,229
my body would

317
00:17:03,229 --> 00:17:08,130
just like kicked into like, we're going to go ultra metabolism and break

318
00:17:08,130 --> 00:17:09,789
everything down and

319
00:17:09,789 --> 00:17:13,230
you're going to have an awesome day. And I did, it was fucking great. Did you

320
00:17:13,230 --> 00:17:13,789
want to buy your

321
00:17:13,789 --> 00:17:19,010
liver like a gift on those days? No, it just made me want to do it again. That

322
00:17:19,010 --> 00:17:21,470
too. Like, oh,

323
00:17:21,470 --> 00:17:27,069
clearly I'm not in practice. Right. Like, oh, I guess I can do this now. Yeah.

324
00:17:27,069 --> 00:17:28,750
I wasn't like the

325
00:17:28,750 --> 00:17:33,549
worst after Dave and Buster's like the next day, but it wasn't the best either.

326
00:17:33,549 --> 00:17:34,190
Like Deb was

327
00:17:34,190 --> 00:17:37,549
fucking dead. She was like, I'm dying over here. I was like, I'm not dying. I'm

328
00:17:37,549 --> 00:17:38,269
not thriving

329
00:17:38,269 --> 00:17:42,489
either. I'm just, I got a decent headache. Needed some greasy food. Yeah. I had

330
00:17:42,489 --> 00:17:43,390
a Dr. Pepper,

331
00:17:43,390 --> 00:17:47,329
that kind of thing. Nothing too crazy. That was the day of my fantasy draft and

332
00:17:47,329 --> 00:17:48,029
I napped through

333
00:17:48,029 --> 00:17:53,309
it. So I auto drafted you. Yeah. Hey, I got your boy, Aaron Rogers on my team.

334
00:17:53,309 --> 00:17:53,950
That's not my boy.

335
00:17:55,390 --> 00:17:59,869
Used to be. I don't know. You're talking about your former boy. Oh, see what he

336
00:17:59,869 --> 00:18:00,510
can blow out

337
00:18:00,510 --> 00:18:05,380
this year. Everybody keeps saying, if he stays healthy, the jets are supposed

338
00:18:05,380 --> 00:18:06,190
to be decent.

339
00:18:06,190 --> 00:18:12,430
I'm not for it. I'm thinking neither of those things will happen. They were USA

340
00:18:12,430 --> 00:18:13,150
today's pick

341
00:18:13,150 --> 00:18:20,440
for the Superbowl this year. Not a sport show, not a football show, but just a

342
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:21,309
little fun tidbit

343
00:18:21,309 --> 00:18:25,920
information. USA today. Apparently not a sports paper either. Not a sports

344
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:26,509
paper.

345
00:18:26,509 --> 00:18:32,009
It's pretty, pretty convinced. They have no idea what's going on. Yeah, I'd say

346
00:18:32,009 --> 00:18:32,349
so.

347
00:18:32,349 --> 00:18:38,910
Well, speaking of my, uh, my romping around in San Francisco, we have a rombing

348
00:18:38,910 --> 00:18:39,789
ass son of a

349
00:18:39,789 --> 00:18:44,190
bitch, right? We do have a voicemail from psycho bear who lives up in NorCal.

350
00:18:44,190 --> 00:18:45,150
So let's, let's check

351
00:18:45,150 --> 00:18:50,470
in with him. No one is available to take your call. Please leave a message aft

352
00:18:50,470 --> 00:18:51,230
er the tone.

353
00:18:51,230 --> 00:18:56,910
Hello, craft beer Republic. This is psycho bear. I want to hear my message.

354
00:18:56,910 --> 00:19:05,799
So now I find out not only is Greg for my next life at himself. Oh yeah. I

355
00:19:05,799 --> 00:19:07,150
guess Erica.

356
00:19:07,150 --> 00:19:12,910
I hear him. I'm hearing her on the latest episode. She just went to mindscape

357
00:19:12,910 --> 00:19:13,789
fermentation

358
00:19:14,509 --> 00:19:20,509
and that apparently is an hour North of me. My goodness. And to top it all off

359
00:19:20,509 --> 00:19:23,150
flex. Well,

360
00:19:23,150 --> 00:19:30,069
my niece and nephew go to Wisconsin, whatever the university, man, I was

361
00:19:30,069 --> 00:19:30,589
destined to listen

362
00:19:30,589 --> 00:19:37,150
to your show. Anyways, uh, just an update. I made a little trip to Seattle and,

363
00:19:37,150 --> 00:19:38,509
uh, one of your

364
00:19:38,509 --> 00:19:44,069
favorite fans deep Fontana gym was there. Yes. Me and Fontana gym were in

365
00:19:44,069 --> 00:19:45,630
Seattle drinking it up

366
00:19:45,630 --> 00:19:49,329
nice for a few days. Great time. You guys should get up there. I don't know if

367
00:19:49,329 --> 00:19:50,670
you're sour fans,

368
00:19:50,670 --> 00:19:57,710
but we tapped upon this one fantastic furry Mirage. They usually have two to

369
00:19:57,710 --> 00:19:58,670
three people.

370
00:19:58,670 --> 00:20:02,589
Well, actually I was there with about 25 other people from around the country.

371
00:20:02,589 --> 00:20:03,069
It was pretty

372
00:20:03,069 --> 00:20:09,069
stellar. Yeah. Good times. And, uh, Oh, I was actually down in Agoura two weeks

373
00:20:09,069 --> 00:20:10,029
before that

374
00:20:10,029 --> 00:20:16,710
for a little birthday celebration, made it to Rancho la Hill place, Greg. And

375
00:20:16,710 --> 00:20:17,150
it was good.

376
00:20:17,150 --> 00:20:22,150
Nothing ever great out there. I got to try this pedal in tight, but one day I

377
00:20:22,150 --> 00:20:24,190
will. Oh,

378
00:20:24,190 --> 00:20:28,910
when you're heading back up to the bay, Greg, uh, I don't know how to reach you

379
00:20:28,910 --> 00:20:29,410
other than

380
00:20:30,190 --> 00:20:35,660
this wonderful podcast platform. Anyways. Uh, yeah, that's it for me. Tycho

381
00:20:35,660 --> 00:20:37,150
bear signing out.

382
00:20:37,150 --> 00:20:43,390
Goodbye. So abrupt. I don't know when I'm, I know I will be going back up,

383
00:20:43,390 --> 00:20:47,569
but I don't know when I'll be going back up to the bay. They spring this shit

384
00:20:47,569 --> 00:20:48,430
on me at work. Like,

385
00:20:48,430 --> 00:20:51,440
Hey, can you go up there in two days? Like, Oh, I guess. Are you trying to

386
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:52,269
cause a divorce?

387
00:20:52,269 --> 00:20:58,190
Sure. She's probably happy to get rid of you for a couple of days. She claims

388
00:20:58,190 --> 00:20:58,829
she's not,

389
00:20:58,829 --> 00:21:02,549
but somewhere deep down inside, she's gotta be. I love having the bed to myself

390
00:21:02,549 --> 00:21:02,829
.

391
00:21:02,829 --> 00:21:09,140
I don't really. Yeah. I don't know if we've had this conversation, my wife,

392
00:21:09,140 --> 00:21:10,430
then you know how

393
00:21:10,430 --> 00:21:15,019
everybody's like, you talk up a big game about like, Oh man, I can't wait to

394
00:21:15,019 --> 00:21:15,470
have the bed to

395
00:21:15,470 --> 00:21:20,950
myself. And I lay in the middle of the bed and I like sprawl out. Yes. And then

396
00:21:20,950 --> 00:21:22,029
after about two

397
00:21:22,029 --> 00:21:27,089
minutes, I'm just like, wow, this isn't all it's cracked up to be. Oh, and I

398
00:21:27,089 --> 00:21:28,349
get to my regular

399
00:21:28,349 --> 00:21:33,710
side and I get my regular sleeping position. Like not me, man. All right. I

400
00:21:33,710 --> 00:21:35,150
guess, uh,

401
00:21:35,150 --> 00:21:39,630
I guess this is just how we sleep from now on. I'm doing bed angels in the

402
00:21:39,630 --> 00:21:42,269
middle, just sprawled out.

403
00:21:42,269 --> 00:21:47,390
Oh, it's glorious. So I like waking up like that to just be able to get that

404
00:21:47,390 --> 00:21:48,029
good

405
00:21:48,029 --> 00:21:53,230
morning stretch in, like you wake up and each foot hits a corner of the bed,

406
00:21:53,230 --> 00:21:54,509
the hands get

407
00:21:54,509 --> 00:21:59,670
corner of the bed, you're X'd out. And that's nice. But yeah, sleeping, I just

408
00:21:59,670 --> 00:22:01,549
can't just look

409
00:22:01,549 --> 00:22:08,630
like a chalk line murder. I always end up like back in my spot, curled up in

410
00:22:08,630 --> 00:22:10,269
the corner, like

411
00:22:10,269 --> 00:22:13,329
usual by the end of the night. But when I start, like I go to sleep in the

412
00:22:13,329 --> 00:22:14,269
middle of the bed,

413
00:22:14,269 --> 00:22:20,750
just sprawled out, nice and quiet. It's great, man. Isn't that bizarre? It is

414
00:22:20,750 --> 00:22:21,230
weird. But then

415
00:22:21,230 --> 00:22:24,329
I, yeah, like I said, I wake up like in the corner as if I'm being kicked or

416
00:22:24,329 --> 00:22:24,990
something,

417
00:22:24,990 --> 00:22:33,470
but Hey, never. Uh, what was psycho bear say? Oh, do we like sours? Fuck. Yeah.

418
00:22:33,549 --> 00:22:37,549
like sours. Who doesn't like sours? Yeah. Sours are, they're super solid. Do I

419
00:22:37,549 --> 00:22:38,750
buy a lot of them?

420
00:22:38,750 --> 00:22:43,549
No, it doesn't fit the algorithm. Sure. Yeah. Usually pretty pricey, pretty

421
00:22:43,549 --> 00:22:44,910
pricey, low ABV.

422
00:22:44,910 --> 00:22:50,460
Yeah. If I go out to a brewery, I will try theirs, you know? Right. That's,

423
00:22:50,460 --> 00:22:51,390
that's why I do my most

424
00:22:51,390 --> 00:22:55,690
sour consumption is at the brewery. So, uh, I haven't been to Seattle in a

425
00:22:55,690 --> 00:22:57,069
minute, but, um,

426
00:22:57,069 --> 00:23:01,069
Seattle's always got a super, you know, like a real solid beer scene up there.

427
00:23:01,069 --> 00:23:01,710
So I've heard

428
00:23:01,710 --> 00:23:05,430
Seattle's really good. I've heard Portland's really good too. Um, but I've

429
00:23:05,430 --> 00:23:06,190
never heard of

430
00:23:06,190 --> 00:23:10,180
this Mirage. I have not heard of Mirage been to Portland, been in Seattle,

431
00:23:10,180 --> 00:23:10,990
great beer, but yeah,

432
00:23:10,990 --> 00:23:14,190
it's been, it's been a minute. Mirage must be a little on the newer side. I

433
00:23:14,190 --> 00:23:14,750
hope they've been

434
00:23:14,750 --> 00:23:20,829
around for like 30 years now. I know they probably have. I'm just being a dick.

435
00:23:20,829 --> 00:23:22,670
I wonder if I can

436
00:23:22,670 --> 00:23:28,049
Google this real quick. Mirage brewing Seattle. There they are. They have 40,

437
00:23:28,049 --> 00:23:29,309
almost 4,500

438
00:23:29,309 --> 00:23:32,369
followers on the grams. They're probably been around too long. Oh yeah. Maybe

439
00:23:32,369 --> 00:23:32,990
they're new,

440
00:23:33,710 --> 00:23:37,200
new adjacent. I mean, I haven't been up there in like eight years probably at

441
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:38,109
least. So,

442
00:23:38,109 --> 00:23:43,950
uh, any people don't forget. Yeah. 805-538-beer. That's the number to call if

443
00:23:43,950 --> 00:23:44,430
you guys want to

444
00:23:44,430 --> 00:23:48,579
leave a voicemail. Yeah. Get on a voicemail. Yeah. Get on, get up on it. You

445
00:23:48,579 --> 00:23:49,309
don't even have

446
00:23:49,309 --> 00:23:54,920
to be drunk. It's true. We prefer if you were, but you don't have to be. Leave

447
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:56,430
us a voicemail.

448
00:23:56,430 --> 00:24:00,589
Uh, all right. Ludicrous libation law. This one comes to us from everyone's

449
00:24:00,589 --> 00:24:01,309
favorite place,

450
00:24:02,109 --> 00:24:06,349
West Virginia. Okay. I was going to say New Jersey, so. Oh no. West Virginia

451
00:24:06,349 --> 00:24:06,509
were,

452
00:24:06,509 --> 00:24:09,809
what was it last time? They probably don't even have fax machines to listen to

453
00:24:09,809 --> 00:24:10,750
the podcast on.

454
00:24:10,750 --> 00:24:16,430
I think they do have more breweries than North Dakota though. I think we

455
00:24:16,430 --> 00:24:17,359
figured out.

456
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:22,079
Yeah. Something like that. North Dakota was like 20. Yeah. Like 19 or something

457
00:24:22,079 --> 00:24:22,559
like that. Yeah.

458
00:24:22,559 --> 00:24:28,240
It's a weird small number. Yeah. Well, it was like 28. Yeah. It wasn't a whole

459
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:28,960
lot more

460
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:35,119
in West Virginia. Bars are technically illegal if they also don't serve food.

461
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,000
Food for them is just people though.

462
00:24:42,049 --> 00:24:46,829
I was going to say street possum, but, uh, you know, cut them deep. Um, no, I

463
00:24:46,829 --> 00:24:48,210
saw a,

464
00:24:48,210 --> 00:24:53,089
there's squirrel eaters out there. Oh, this is a real thing. Yeah. I watched

465
00:24:53,089 --> 00:24:53,650
back in the day.

466
00:24:53,650 --> 00:24:57,890
And by back in the day, I mean like 10 years ago, bizarre foods with Andrew

467
00:24:57,890 --> 00:24:59,170
Zimmer and used to be a

468
00:24:59,170 --> 00:25:05,680
big show on the food network. Yeah. And West Virginia is such a bizarre place.

469
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:05,890
Like he

470
00:25:05,890 --> 00:25:12,930
usually goes to countries like Spain and wherever and Japan and exotic places.

471
00:25:12,930 --> 00:25:15,089
He did a fucking

472
00:25:15,089 --> 00:25:22,779
episode in West Virginia because it is that bizarre. And, uh, yeah. One of the

473
00:25:22,779 --> 00:25:23,250
places he

474
00:25:23,250 --> 00:25:27,609
went to eat, they had like squirrels strung up by their tails, like on a

475
00:25:27,609 --> 00:25:29,650
clothesline and, uh,

476
00:25:30,450 --> 00:25:37,190
clothesline from hell. Yeah. So, uh, JBL, uh, yeah. They just eat a lot of

477
00:25:37,190 --> 00:25:37,809
squirrels.

478
00:25:37,809 --> 00:25:45,890
I don't think that would be very good. A bit nutty. Yeah. No, thanks. Yeah. By

479
00:25:45,890 --> 00:25:46,049
the way,

480
00:25:46,049 --> 00:25:51,250
Mirage beer up in Seattle, their first post on the gram was November of 2017.

481
00:25:51,250 --> 00:25:52,930
So, you know, newish.

482
00:25:53,890 --> 00:25:58,450
I feel like that was a great, great time for breweries. Oh, that was prime time

483
00:25:58,450 --> 00:26:00,289
. 2016, 2017,

484
00:26:00,289 --> 00:26:04,529
popping up around that time. You're probably doing pretty well. Yeah. That was

485
00:26:04,529 --> 00:26:05,490
like peak

486
00:26:05,490 --> 00:26:12,049
craft. I'd say, man, just the crew, the cream of the crops, the cream rising to

487
00:26:12,049 --> 00:26:14,369
the top. Yeah,

488
00:26:14,369 --> 00:26:18,289
there it is. All right. Before we move on. Uh, yeah. Before we move on West

489
00:26:18,289 --> 00:26:18,930
Virginia,

490
00:26:18,930 --> 00:26:24,849
they're fucked. Enjoy those fucking squirrels. Yeah. And your bars. I feel like

491
00:26:24,849 --> 00:26:25,170
they have to

492
00:26:25,170 --> 00:26:29,039
have like a roadkill restaurant too. We're like, there's no way they don't. The

493
00:26:29,039 --> 00:26:29,809
restaurant just

494
00:26:29,809 --> 00:26:36,359
salvages roadkill and that's what's on the menu for the night. Closing early

495
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:37,329
today. No traffic.

496
00:26:40,279 --> 00:26:46,759
So gross. So, uh, all right. If you don't mind. I don't mind. I'm going to make

497
00:26:46,759 --> 00:26:47,400
a call the pen.

498
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:59,430
He calls to the bullpen for still laughing about roadkill. Well, that's, it's a

499
00:26:59,430 --> 00:27:00,269
real thing. I

500
00:27:00,269 --> 00:27:05,150
guarantee it. I absolutely believe it is. And you don't even need like a catchy

501
00:27:05,150 --> 00:27:05,630
name. It would just

502
00:27:05,630 --> 00:27:09,309
be like the roadkill diner. Yeah. The roadkill cafe or something like that.

503
00:27:09,309 --> 00:27:09,950
That's good. I like

504
00:27:09,950 --> 00:27:15,109
the alliteration. Yeah. Uh, I'm drinking nothing to do with roadkill cafe with

505
00:27:15,109 --> 00:27:15,470
a K

506
00:27:15,470 --> 00:27:23,230
but just to sound, please drink your beer, but just to sound fancier to look

507
00:27:23,230 --> 00:27:23,869
fancy to have the

508
00:27:23,869 --> 00:27:30,230
little like lying over the little teal day. Uh, I'm drinking along with flex

509
00:27:30,230 --> 00:27:31,630
and Oktoberfest.

510
00:27:31,630 --> 00:27:35,940
This one is from Enneagrin brewing their Oktoberfest beer that they just

511
00:27:35,940 --> 00:27:36,349
released a

512
00:27:36,349 --> 00:27:43,079
couple of weeks ago. Five and a half percent, 23 IBUs has a three, eight, two

513
00:27:43,079 --> 00:27:44,190
on untapped

514
00:27:44,190 --> 00:27:49,190
because people don't appreciate good German beer. Really don't. They say on the

515
00:27:49,190 --> 00:27:49,789
can here,

516
00:27:49,789 --> 00:27:55,150
Enneagrin Oktoberfest is a traditional Bavarian Maritzen style lager brewed

517
00:27:55,150 --> 00:27:56,509
with imported German

518
00:27:56,509 --> 00:28:02,319
Munich, Vienna, and Pilsner malts. These malts give our Oktoberfest a beautiful

519
00:28:02,319 --> 00:28:03,069
copper color

520
00:28:03,069 --> 00:28:10,630
and a full bodied malty sweet flavor with hints of honey, nuts, and caramel. Pr

521
00:28:10,630 --> 00:28:11,150
ost.

522
00:28:11,150 --> 00:28:16,109
As you can see, I think it matches that description visually perfectly. Very,

523
00:28:16,109 --> 00:28:22,920
very gray color. Very caramelly. Very clear. Here's the sniffer. Very roasty on

524
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:23,470
the nose.

525
00:28:23,470 --> 00:28:28,109
Ooh, okay. A lot of roasty toastiness. Do you like your Oktoberfest

526
00:28:28,109 --> 00:28:32,109
roasty? I don't dislike them roasting. Okay. It's an appropriate amount of ro

527
00:28:32,109 --> 00:28:32,589
asty.

528
00:28:32,589 --> 00:28:37,230
Right. Like chestnuts on an open fire. Right. Not burnt nuts on my ding-a-ling.

529
00:28:39,869 --> 00:28:46,910
Sorry. Tongue jabber time. Zungenjabber. Zungenjabber. I nailed it. You really

530
00:28:46,910 --> 00:28:47,630
did.

531
00:28:47,630 --> 00:28:53,309
This is so good. Fuck you 382. Isn't that crazy? Yeah. People are crazy.

532
00:28:53,309 --> 00:28:57,130
I'd say the Schnaz has more roasty toasty than the actual beer does. The beer

533
00:28:57,130 --> 00:28:57,789
has just the right

534
00:28:57,789 --> 00:29:03,539
amount. Okay. Fair amount. Very clean. Yeah. Very clean. Finishes very dry,

535
00:29:03,539 --> 00:29:04,269
which makes you coming

536
00:29:04,269 --> 00:29:08,569
back for more. I don't find it, and I actually enjoy this. I don't find it to

537
00:29:08,569 --> 00:29:09,549
be overly sweet.

538
00:29:09,549 --> 00:29:13,789
Sometimes the Marathons get a little on the sweet side. This one is not, and I

539
00:29:13,789 --> 00:29:14,589
appreciate that.

540
00:29:14,589 --> 00:29:19,069
I am not a huge Dunkel person because they're too sweet for me.

541
00:29:19,069 --> 00:29:25,319
So I don't like a lot of Dunkels. I will like maybe two Dunkels, but I like

542
00:29:25,319 --> 00:29:28,109
when they are buttery.

543
00:29:28,109 --> 00:29:31,950
Yeah. The Dunkels I like are not true to style because they're just a little

544
00:29:31,950 --> 00:29:33,069
too sweet for me.

545
00:29:33,069 --> 00:29:38,990
Yeah. Not a big fan of that. I'm not going to lie here. Dunkels and Doppelbachs

546
00:29:39,150 --> 00:29:40,750
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

547
00:29:40,750 --> 00:29:43,869
Just those are probably two styles that are not for me.

548
00:29:43,869 --> 00:29:48,950
I'm with you, especially the Dunkels. Doppels, eh, they're hit and miss, but

549
00:29:48,950 --> 00:29:50,269
Dunkels 95% of

550
00:29:50,269 --> 00:29:53,460
the time I don't like them. They're just not for me. They're too sweet. I know

551
00:29:53,460 --> 00:29:54,269
that's the style,

552
00:29:54,269 --> 00:29:58,059
and I know it might be the perfectly created Doppel, or excuse me, Dunkel, not

553
00:29:58,059 --> 00:29:58,670
my jam.

554
00:29:58,670 --> 00:30:03,150
So like a black IPA over a Dunkel?

555
00:30:03,150 --> 00:30:06,109
Oh, yes. I love black IPAs.

556
00:30:06,109 --> 00:30:07,470
Red IPA?

557
00:30:07,470 --> 00:30:08,589
Over a Dunkel?

558
00:30:08,589 --> 00:30:09,150
Yeah.

559
00:30:09,150 --> 00:30:09,710
Absolutely.

560
00:30:09,710 --> 00:30:15,069
Honestly, most styles over a Dunkel. I just don't like the sweetness.

561
00:30:15,069 --> 00:30:21,750
Well, I'm just trying to think red IPAs are very, very malty, sometimes overly

562
00:30:21,750 --> 00:30:22,670
malty.

563
00:30:22,670 --> 00:30:27,150
They can be, yeah. But in general, I would take the red IPA over a Dunkel. It's

564
00:30:27,150 --> 00:30:27,789
just

565
00:30:27,789 --> 00:30:34,190
too sweet for me. Too honey and caramel tasting. This is so clean finish. It's

566
00:30:34,190 --> 00:30:35,390
so dry.

567
00:30:35,390 --> 00:30:39,069
Leaves the tongue wanting more, which is, I mean, if you're making beer, that's

568
00:30:39,150 --> 00:30:41,549
perfect thing. People needing to drink more and more.

569
00:30:41,549 --> 00:30:43,230
Drinking and drinking and drinking.

570
00:30:43,230 --> 00:30:46,990
As I'm doing. So, I mean, it's fucking anagram. We know they're going to knock

571
00:30:46,990 --> 00:30:47,230
it out of the

572
00:30:47,230 --> 00:30:48,109
park. It's a lager.

573
00:30:48,109 --> 00:30:49,789
It's a lager. Is it a lager?

574
00:30:49,789 --> 00:30:52,670
Yeah, it's a Märzen style lager.

575
00:30:52,670 --> 00:30:56,589
It's very good on the Zungenjaber.

576
00:30:56,589 --> 00:31:00,910
Zungenjaber. Every time I pull this up, it reloads.

577
00:31:00,910 --> 00:31:02,029
Zungenjaber.

578
00:31:02,029 --> 00:31:03,309
I just need to pull that out as a drop.

579
00:31:03,309 --> 00:31:04,509
Drop it.

580
00:31:04,509 --> 00:31:05,630
Drop it like it's hot.

581
00:31:05,630 --> 00:31:07,869
All right, let's get some news in here before we get up out of here.

582
00:31:07,869 --> 00:31:14,029
Cambridge Brewing Company to close in December after 35 years.

583
00:31:14,029 --> 00:31:15,069
That's sad.

584
00:31:15,069 --> 00:31:20,269
Yeah. This is an interesting story. So after 35 years, Massachusetts based brew

585
00:31:20,269 --> 00:31:20,829
pub,

586
00:31:20,829 --> 00:31:23,539
Cambridge Brewing Company has announced it will shut its doors at the end of

587
00:31:23,539 --> 00:31:24,269
2024.

588
00:31:24,269 --> 00:31:27,869
The brewery wrote on social media over the weekend, "To our dear CBC friends

589
00:31:27,869 --> 00:31:28,670
and family,

590
00:31:28,670 --> 00:31:32,109
our time is coming to a close. Our last day of service will be December 20th,

591
00:31:32,109 --> 00:31:33,230
but what a time it has been."

592
00:31:33,869 --> 00:31:38,829
Unlike common culprits behind craft brewery closures as of late, punishingly

593
00:31:38,829 --> 00:31:39,309
high rent

594
00:31:39,309 --> 00:31:44,559
costs, a distracted drinker base, a slowing industry, CBC is going out on its

595
00:31:44,559 --> 00:31:45,549
own terms.

596
00:31:45,549 --> 00:31:52,670
Founder and owner Phil Uff-Banateen told the Boston Globe, he goes on to say,

597
00:31:52,670 --> 00:31:56,750
"I want to retire. There comes a time in everyone's life when what becomes

598
00:31:56,750 --> 00:31:57,549
apparent,

599
00:31:57,549 --> 00:31:59,789
and I think a time for me is now."

600
00:31:59,789 --> 00:32:03,710
So he's just retiring. They're not getting shut down or...

601
00:32:03,710 --> 00:32:06,109
Even with saying that things have slowed down and...

602
00:32:06,109 --> 00:32:07,250
Yeah.

603
00:32:07,250 --> 00:32:07,809
Huh.

604
00:32:07,809 --> 00:32:09,150
So he says.

605
00:32:09,150 --> 00:32:12,109
There's got to be something underlying.

606
00:32:12,109 --> 00:32:13,789
Just old. You know how that is.

607
00:32:13,789 --> 00:32:16,750
I feel ya.

608
00:32:16,750 --> 00:32:21,549
I'm ready to retire. Financially, I'm not, but my body sure is.

609
00:32:21,549 --> 00:32:22,049
Physically?

610
00:32:22,049 --> 00:32:23,390
Yeah.

611
00:32:23,390 --> 00:32:24,509
Stick a fork in me.

612
00:32:24,509 --> 00:32:26,369
I'm done.

613
00:32:26,369 --> 00:32:29,390
Well, West Virginians, please don't, because...

614
00:32:29,390 --> 00:32:30,269
They might literally.

615
00:32:30,269 --> 00:32:32,750
Yeah. Being figurative here.

616
00:32:32,750 --> 00:32:35,150
Don't get any ideas.

617
00:32:35,150 --> 00:32:37,869
Not roadkill yet.

618
00:32:37,869 --> 00:32:42,349
Right. Give it time. We talked about this, I mean, probably close to a year ago

619
00:32:42,349 --> 00:32:42,509
.

620
00:32:42,509 --> 00:32:47,069
Fireball, you know, the disgusting cinnamon whiskey.

621
00:32:47,069 --> 00:32:47,710
Terrible.

622
00:32:47,710 --> 00:32:49,869
They're little like mini bottle shot things.

623
00:32:49,869 --> 00:32:54,009
So funny thing here. So when we did, we picked the order for my fantasy

624
00:32:54,009 --> 00:32:54,829
football draft.

625
00:32:55,869 --> 00:33:00,910
It's like a tradition to get like shots before the start.

626
00:33:00,910 --> 00:33:01,549
Sure.

627
00:33:01,549 --> 00:33:05,859
So the guy went out on his break at work and bought like a 10 pack of fireball

628
00:33:05,859 --> 00:33:06,269
shots.

629
00:33:06,269 --> 00:33:08,349
Not whiskey.

630
00:33:08,349 --> 00:33:12,430
Not whiskey. So I had to enlighten everybody by saying this is just a malt

631
00:33:12,430 --> 00:33:13,309
beverage

632
00:33:13,309 --> 00:33:16,670
and it is not actual whiskey. So funny thing is when you look...

633
00:33:16,670 --> 00:33:18,829
You're going to tell him about the Beechwood aging process?

634
00:33:18,829 --> 00:33:22,269
No, I didn't want to bore him to sleep.

635
00:33:23,549 --> 00:33:30,029
But if you look at the little bottle now, they spell it whiskey, W-H-I-S-K-Y.

636
00:33:30,029 --> 00:33:31,309
Interesting.

637
00:33:31,309 --> 00:33:36,990
So it looks like whiskey, but it's whiskey.

638
00:33:36,990 --> 00:33:41,150
Right. That's like we were at dinner one night with Deb and Brian

639
00:33:41,150 --> 00:33:46,640
and this was not a fancy establishment. The drink on the menu was old fashioned

640
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:46,990
.

641
00:33:46,990 --> 00:33:48,029
Well, that's weird.

642
00:33:48,029 --> 00:33:52,630
Yeah. I was like, does that make it like a knockoff old fashioned or why is it

643
00:33:52,630 --> 00:33:53,789
different here?

644
00:33:53,789 --> 00:33:56,190
Maybe they think that's what it is.

645
00:33:56,190 --> 00:34:00,590
Maybe. It's like, is this a typo? Anyways, so back to fireball.

646
00:34:00,590 --> 00:34:05,869
It went to court. There's a whole class action thing because the little bottles

647
00:34:05,869 --> 00:34:08,429
are fermented malt beverages. They're not whiskey.

648
00:34:08,429 --> 00:34:14,510
And fireball maker Sazerac attempts to block the class action certification.

649
00:34:15,469 --> 00:34:20,110
Sazerac isn't taking the heat for causing confusion between its whiskey-based

650
00:34:20,110 --> 00:34:23,869
fireball cinnamon and its malt-based product of the same name.

651
00:34:23,869 --> 00:34:28,269
After Sazerac was hit with a class action lawsuit last year for allegedly

652
00:34:28,269 --> 00:34:28,670
creating

653
00:34:28,670 --> 00:34:33,150
consumer confusion between the two products, the company urged a California

654
00:34:33,150 --> 00:34:33,789
federal judge

655
00:34:33,789 --> 00:34:37,849
last week not to grant class certification to buyers who claimed the single

656
00:34:37,849 --> 00:34:38,989
serving fireball

657
00:34:38,989 --> 00:34:44,070
malt beverages misled consumers into thinking they were buying fireball's

658
00:34:44,070 --> 00:34:45,389
cinnamon whiskey product.

659
00:34:45,389 --> 00:34:51,789
The spirits giant is arguing that the putative class's experts' proposed

660
00:34:51,789 --> 00:34:53,630
surveys don't show

661
00:34:53,630 --> 00:34:58,190
wide ranging deception, saying that neither of the two surveys are admissible

662
00:34:58,190 --> 00:34:59,150
because the methods do

663
00:34:59,150 --> 00:35:04,030
not properly target fireball buyers and ignore important factors like

664
00:35:04,030 --> 00:35:05,949
convenience and supply.

665
00:35:05,949 --> 00:35:09,420
I don't know why that matters, because if I want fireball, which I don't, I

666
00:35:09,420 --> 00:35:10,750
want actual fireball.

667
00:35:10,750 --> 00:35:14,960
The product in question, fireball cinnamon, is a flavored malt beverage that

668
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:15,389
contains

669
00:35:15,389 --> 00:35:21,739
natural whiskey and other flavors and caramel color. According to its label,

670
00:35:21,739 --> 00:35:22,510
the beverage is

671
00:35:22,510 --> 00:35:27,949
16.5% ABV, half the strength of the spirits-based fireball at 33%.

672
00:35:27,949 --> 00:35:29,949
It's all terrible.

673
00:35:29,949 --> 00:35:32,590
Yeah, either way, I don't want to drink it.

674
00:35:32,590 --> 00:35:33,550
It really is.

675
00:35:34,110 --> 00:35:37,869
So this is interesting. I just googled, is it whiskey or whiskey? You know, EY

676
00:35:37,869 --> 00:35:39,230
or no EY.

677
00:35:39,230 --> 00:35:42,960
The tricky part is matching the right spelling with the right country of origin

678
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:44,030
. If you're

679
00:35:44,030 --> 00:35:49,230
talking about a drink that's been made in Scotland, Canada, or Japan, they use

680
00:35:49,230 --> 00:35:50,110
the spelling

681
00:35:50,110 --> 00:35:54,389
without the E. When referring to drinks distilled in the United States or

682
00:35:54,389 --> 00:35:56,590
Ireland, they use the E.

683
00:35:56,590 --> 00:35:58,110
Whiskey.

684
00:35:58,110 --> 00:36:00,269
I'm going to have to go to the liquor store tomorrow.

685
00:36:00,269 --> 00:36:05,389
Yeah. So without the E is not technically wrong. It's just weird to see in

686
00:36:05,389 --> 00:36:06,030
America.

687
00:36:06,030 --> 00:36:10,269
So it's not produced or made in America or Ireland then?

688
00:36:10,269 --> 00:36:13,469
Well, the other thing is if it says whiskey though, I mean, then it's a real...

689
00:36:13,469 --> 00:36:17,150
Yeah. It says it right on the bottle.

690
00:36:17,150 --> 00:36:19,949
Yeah. Then they're really deceiving the public.

691
00:36:19,949 --> 00:36:22,989
Right. Then you think you are getting whiskey.

692
00:36:22,989 --> 00:36:23,630
Right.

693
00:36:23,630 --> 00:36:24,989
Yeah. That's messed up.

694
00:36:24,989 --> 00:36:27,340
Either way, they're deceiving the public into thinking they're drinking

695
00:36:27,340 --> 00:36:27,630
something

696
00:36:27,630 --> 00:36:31,960
that tastes halfway decent. They're not. It's so gross. I can't. I've never

697
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:32,909
liked Fireball.

698
00:36:32,909 --> 00:36:40,030
I did that shot at the picking of the draft order and it was the worst.

699
00:36:40,110 --> 00:36:40,349
Yeah.

700
00:36:40,349 --> 00:36:44,190
I can't believe you woke up okay after fucking Fireball.

701
00:36:44,190 --> 00:36:47,070
Oh yeah. I woke up fine. I mean, it was just one.

702
00:36:47,070 --> 00:36:49,150
Oh, that's good. What was the rest of the liquor you had then?

703
00:36:49,150 --> 00:36:52,110
Oh, at the draft draft? Oh, so that was at the draft order.

704
00:36:52,110 --> 00:36:54,429
That was a different day.

705
00:36:54,429 --> 00:36:55,309
I see.

706
00:36:55,309 --> 00:36:57,630
We just drank shots of Jack all night.

707
00:36:57,630 --> 00:37:00,269
Ooh. I mean, much better than Fireball.

708
00:37:00,269 --> 00:37:00,829
Right.

709
00:37:00,829 --> 00:37:02,030
I could do Jack and diet.

710
00:37:02,030 --> 00:37:05,789
To wake up fine after six shots of Jack.

711
00:37:05,789 --> 00:37:06,590
Pretty impressive.

712
00:37:06,590 --> 00:37:07,789
Yeah.

713
00:37:07,789 --> 00:37:11,469
We'll end on this one. Take a trip down to Florida, shall we?

714
00:37:11,469 --> 00:37:12,349
It's been a while.

715
00:37:12,349 --> 00:37:15,630
It has been a while. Get your gator and your grenade. We're going to Florida.

716
00:37:15,630 --> 00:37:20,670
And oh, Alachua man. Alachua is apparently a place in Florida.

717
00:37:20,670 --> 00:37:21,389
Sure.

718
00:37:21,389 --> 00:37:27,869
Alachua man arrested for driving his tractor on Main Street while drunk.

719
00:37:27,869 --> 00:37:30,989
I feel like we've heard stories like this before.

720
00:37:30,989 --> 00:37:31,869
That's very Florida.

721
00:37:31,869 --> 00:37:35,630
Rance Edward Shannon, 60.

722
00:37:35,630 --> 00:37:37,630
What was his first name?

723
00:37:37,630 --> 00:37:38,349
Rance.

724
00:37:38,349 --> 00:37:39,389
That's what I thought you said.

725
00:37:39,389 --> 00:37:41,150
Yeah. Like France without the F.

726
00:37:41,150 --> 00:37:41,789
Right.

727
00:37:41,789 --> 00:37:42,110
Yeah.

728
00:37:42,110 --> 00:37:46,670
Of Alachua was arrested and charged with driving under the influence

729
00:37:46,670 --> 00:37:50,030
and driving without a valid license after allegedly

730
00:37:50,030 --> 00:37:54,989
weaving across lanes in a tractor on High Springs Main Street.

731
00:37:54,989 --> 00:37:57,710
That's that's the slowest weaving I can imagine.

732
00:37:57,710 --> 00:37:58,349
Right.

733
00:37:58,349 --> 00:37:59,710
Is that really a weave?

734
00:37:59,710 --> 00:38:03,070
Like Austin, Austin Power is trying to do that U-turn and.

735
00:38:03,070 --> 00:38:07,949
Right. Or the whole steamroller thing, you know, get out of the way.

736
00:38:11,639 --> 00:38:16,199
Five minutes later at about 441 p.m. on August 19th,

737
00:38:16,199 --> 00:38:20,840
a High Springs Police Department officer saw a green John Deere tractor

738
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:23,159
traveling north on High Springs Main Street.

739
00:38:23,159 --> 00:38:26,519
He reported the tractor traveled across a double yellow line twice

740
00:38:26,519 --> 00:38:30,519
and entered the opposite lane of travel to pass a line of cars.

741
00:38:30,519 --> 00:38:32,840
How's the tractor passing cars?

742
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:33,639
That's impressive.

743
00:38:33,639 --> 00:38:35,000
It must be stopped.

744
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:35,719
Got a turbo.

745
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,679
Turbo tractor does eight miles per hour.

746
00:38:40,119 --> 00:38:43,400
The officer conducted a traffic stop and the driver reportedly gave him

747
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:46,920
a Florida identification card instead of a driver's license.

748
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:51,239
The officer noted that there were two beers on the floorboard of the tractor

749
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:56,280
and he noticed a strong odor of urine and alcohol while speaking to Shannon.

750
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,679
Shannon's speech was reportedly slurred,

751
00:38:58,679 --> 00:39:02,079
and the officer reported that he had difficulty standing up when he got out of

752
00:39:02,079 --> 00:39:02,679
the tractor.

753
00:39:02,679 --> 00:39:08,030
Shannon was reportedly unable to perform field sobriety exercises due to his

754
00:39:08,030 --> 00:39:09,639
level of influence.

755
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,039
They did a, they ran a report on him.

756
00:39:12,039 --> 00:39:17,960
Shannon has 16 felony convictions, five of which are violent,

757
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:23,769
including two felony DUI convictions and 36 misdemeanor convictions, non-

758
00:39:23,769 --> 00:39:24,599
violent,

759
00:39:24,599 --> 00:39:28,519
including three misdemeanor DUI convictions.

760
00:39:28,519 --> 00:39:33,429
He has served seven state prison sentences with his most recent release in

761
00:39:33,429 --> 00:39:35,079
September of 23.

762
00:39:35,079 --> 00:39:40,500
The judge set bail at $4,000 with the requirement for a transdermal alcohol

763
00:39:40,500 --> 00:39:41,639
detection device.

764
00:39:41,639 --> 00:39:44,920
He said, I've been out of this place for a year.

765
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,800
I'm itching to get me a tractor.

766
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,519
What do you think?

767
00:39:50,519 --> 00:39:54,920
A year ago, he's just about to get out like, "Hey, Rance," with a weird name.

768
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,159
What are you going to do as soon as you get out of the joint?

769
00:39:57,159 --> 00:39:59,400
Like, "I'm going to get me a tractor."

770
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:03,960
Well, I wish they would have reported how he got down from the tractor

771
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:05,480
because those things are fucking tall.

772
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,079
Oh, yeah.

773
00:40:07,079 --> 00:40:08,599
Big, they're tall, they're high up.

774
00:40:08,599 --> 00:40:11,559
You have to climb up in it just to get there.

775
00:40:11,559 --> 00:40:15,179
Unless it's one of those knockoff yard tractors, you know what I'm talking

776
00:40:15,179 --> 00:40:15,639
about?

777
00:40:15,639 --> 00:40:16,599
Is it John Deere, though?

778
00:40:16,599 --> 00:40:17,719
Yeah, it's true.

779
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,199
Big fucking tractor.

780
00:40:20,199 --> 00:40:23,880
Yeah, I hope it was because that would be hilarious to see,

781
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,199
just rolling down Main Street in my tractor.

782
00:40:26,199 --> 00:40:27,159
Passing cars.

783
00:40:27,159 --> 00:40:31,719
I don't think they can go faster than 30 miles an hour.

784
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,079
I wonder what the top...

785
00:40:33,079 --> 00:40:35,960
Let's see if Google will tell us what the top speed of a tractor is.

786
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:40,760
Because I live in a parkway, and we get stuck behind some tractors every now

787
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:41,400
and then.

788
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,840
And I think maybe they max out at 15 miles an hour.

789
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:50,920
Google says most modern tractors go roughly 25 miles per hour at top speed.

790
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:52,199
Okay.

791
00:40:52,199 --> 00:40:54,920
At best, he's zipping through a school zone.

792
00:40:54,920 --> 00:41:01,559
If he's passing cars, they are probably slowing down to get out of the way

793
00:41:01,559 --> 00:41:03,320
because they see his zigzagging.

794
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,119
Or slowing down to watch the fucking idiot in a tractor.

795
00:41:06,119 --> 00:41:06,619
That too.

796
00:41:06,619 --> 00:41:11,800
Oh, here comes Rance again, his fucking tractor.

797
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,360
How many times is this now?

798
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:15,880
16, 17?

799
00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:19,400
Rance, go back to West Virginia already.

800
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,639
Oh, I tell you, that kid will never learn.

801
00:41:21,639 --> 00:41:26,199
Oh, fucking Rance.

802
00:41:26,199 --> 00:41:26,760
What a guy.

803
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:28,360
Classic.

804
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:29,400
Classic Florida.

805
00:41:30,039 --> 00:41:32,119
Hey, speaking of Florida, hi, Vanessa.

806
00:41:32,119 --> 00:41:33,400
Hello, Vanessa.

807
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,039
Oh, slightly creepy today.

808
00:41:36,039 --> 00:41:37,800
Gotta keep you on your toes.

809
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:38,360
Right.

810
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:40,519
Which I'm not into toes.

811
00:41:40,519 --> 00:41:41,639
Oh, hard pass.

812
00:41:41,639 --> 00:41:42,840
Hard pass on the feet.

813
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:43,800
Definitely not a fan.

814
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:45,079
No, not a fan of feet.

815
00:41:45,079 --> 00:41:47,239
Certainly not paying to see feet pictures.

816
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,239
Don't hate, but I don't love.

817
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:50,760
Look, if you want to like feet, that's fine.

818
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:54,519
But it's not a feet hater show.

819
00:41:54,519 --> 00:41:58,119
Also, not a feet lover show.

820
00:41:58,119 --> 00:41:59,719
Let's make that clear.

821
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:00,599
Very clear.

822
00:42:00,599 --> 00:42:01,079
Yeah.

823
00:42:01,079 --> 00:42:03,480
So let's end things before we dig any deeper holes.

824
00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:06,840
Are we digging with our feet?

825
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:07,960
Oh, God, no.

826
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:09,480
Hands, hands only.

00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:13,559

And on that note.

834
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,320
Good night, everybody!
