Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music.
All right, it's nanodosing, it's Nacrodosing, it's mini-dosing.
Those are the only three acceptable names for this program.
We're minus Arian today, so everyone tell Arian that you love him and that you miss him.
He had a family Ablo today.
We do, however, have crisp, we have Yuletide Mick.
We have Yuletide Coley joining us.
All St. Mick.
I love it.
You're rocking the Christmas sweater, the Christmas hat sweater.
Yeah, looking good, Colie.
Thanks, pal.
Yeah, no, this is custom one of one.
No one appreciates the Nog more than the Mickman.
And it was finally acknowledged by Big Nog.
Nice.
So they actually, they heard you and they sent you that stuff?
Oh, yeah.
Fuck yeah.
I love Eggnock.
Eggnog is back, baby.
Do you have a favorite brand?
It's all good.
the hood hood golden i won't even look at other stuff i as far as i'm concerned there's only one
brand there's a monopoly on eggnog you ever have eggnog ice cream i actually have some in the
freezer right now for the first time i'm very excited to try it yeah i just got some of that too
i'm pumped i'm like i'm a huge eggnog fan i feel like eggnog haters are more like milk haters in
general i always feel like those types of people it's like your problem's not with eggnog your
problem is with milk and that means you have other issues i'm a i'm a milk and eggnog hater
Yeah, your problem is with gains
Yeah, you just stop drinking milk
At some point in your life
And lost your tolerance
And now you're making everyone else suffer
Because you're committed to the milk
Loki eggnog hater
Dude, that's
I've never had eggnog
Really?
I haven't, I don't think I have either
I hate milk though
We gotta get the nog going in the studio
Maybe how about that'll be our holiday party
Yeah, we'll get a bunch of nog going
And fat nog
I'm gonna do some nod bongs
Yo, we should do
We should do the Santa Claus.
Yes, yes.
Somebody explains something to me.
Nog pong.
Eggnog can and cannot have alcohol in it, right?
Correct.
Yes.
What alcohol do people put in it?
Also, it's the beauty of the nog.
Isn't it like Bailey's?
It's very, no, you can go with, well, you could do Bailey's.
You could do whiskey.
So you could go with bourbon.
Big T.
You just got five guys.
It's got to be dark lichers.
I totally forgot that we were recording at 1230 and I sent Jake Malisek to get me lunch.
All right.
Well, the answer is Big T.
You could do literally any sort of vodka or rum or whiskey or Baileys or brandy or anything that you want.
Probably the only thing that you should never, ever put in there.
I don't think, I don't see gin working out.
Yeah.
Which is kind of ironic since gin is the alcohol that most tastes like Christmas trees.
Exactly.
Yeah, the juniper berries.
Sneaky best Irish cream in my opinion is this stuff.
called St. Brennan's, which is cheaper than Baileys, and I think tastes better.
Yeah?
Yeah.
I make my own Bailey sometimes.
You do?
Homemade.
It's better.
It's better than real self.
What whiskey you use?
I will not give away my secret.
Maybe I'll bring in some Baileys as Christmas presents for people around here.
Like your own baileys?
Huh?
Like the one you make?
Yeah, like to stuff that I make.
That's dope.
Yeah.
What if we do the week before Christmas, like holiday conspiracies, like Santa Claus, like white people
crampus yeah oh i like that yeah we should we should go through the list of all the different
the different guys out there like me a great one the uh the icelandic yule lads are my favorite
jeff d low taught me about that it's just like 13 little dwarves the lads and um you're supposed
to leave your shoes in your window and then if you've been a good boy or girl they fill up your
shoes with treats if you've been bad they put rotten potatoes in your shoes great tradition um we
should get you know who i think are big fans of that sort of thing nick and kb yes they love that stuff
maybe do it an anus macrodosing crossover in iceland they sneaky like full-fledged believe in magic
and if the people who say they don't believe in magic is just because they're paranoid that they're
revealing like they actually think elves and stuff live out there and they leave them like seriously
full-on believe in all that stuff that's somewhere that i did notice that we had a couple
listeners in Iceland on our Spotify year-in-review thing that got sent out.
65 different countries listen to our podcast.
So people in Iceland that are listening to Macrodos right now, please let us know how
correct Billy is to say that your entire country believes that elves are a real thing that run
around everywhere.
They literally have signs for elves.
I'm aware.
I'm just curious to know.
They say anyone, they're like, you either say you believe in elves and admit to it or
you're keeping it secret to protect the elves.
So the people that say that they don't believe in elves, everyone else just turns on them harder
because they're like, you know the elves. You're keeping their, so you're in bed with them.
It's a whole, you know, island of paranoia about the magical creatures living out in the Icelandic wilderness.
They also have wonderful hot springs, I'm told. In volcanoes.
I want to go to Iceland for like a weekend. That'd be dope.
It's not far, right? I think there's some Ryan air flights that go there.
Icelandic too.
It's not as far as you think of this
It's like a four hour flight
I don't think it's crazy
Yeah maybe even less than that
If it's three hours
We should rip it for a weekend
We should go out there rip it
It expense it as a macrodosing trip
To find the elves
A fact-finding mission
Yeah
It's five hours and 45 minutes
And it's about
$300 per flight
Which isn't bad
Round trip
Yeah
Round trip 300 dollars
Yep
Paid more than that
To fly to fucking Nashville
I feel like it's shorter than that
Five hours seems like it's long
Not of like JFK.
From New York.
We're on New York.
I don't think there's a different
there, Bill.
Why would that be close?
Two minutes.
Two minutes further away.
I'm just saying.
I mean, Koli could probably get there.
There's probably an ice bridge that leads from Maine to Iceland,
or at least to Greenland.
Definitely.
A thousand percent.
We can go to Reykavik.
I think that's the name.
Reykjavik, yeah.
I've flown in and out of Iceland.
Like twice, I think on my.
way to Europe and the cool part about it is when you fly into it everything is like very neat
everything's like all the houses roads everything is just like little cubes little squares very well
taken care of looks like a very clean country um and then after you get outside of rakeovic
it's just like fields fields and cool topography it looks like a fun place to go visit and i know a bunch
of people that have gone out there seeing the arctic puffins you can do puffin tours
You can go take tours and see whales.
And then you just chill out and drink vodka in a hot spring at the end of the day.
It's pretty cool.
I want to go chill with the mountain.
Oh, the person in the mountain.
Half Thor, Bjornson.
Yeah.
That guy fascinates me.
They breed big people.
Yeah.
They're literal like Viking descendants.
Uh-huh.
And they're all kind of related.
There's a little, they have like apps to make sure you're not related on the island.
Do they really?
Yeah.
It's like dating apps to make sure that.
you aren't like
hooking up with your cousin because the
gene pool is pretty small
how do you how do you know who's your cousin
on the dating app well what they do is they have
they have the records
there's a big access to the records like
I think it was Eric the Red
that or Leaf Erickson
Leaf Erickson left Iceland
to go to Greenland yeah yeah
but um they have all the records
dating back from the Viking Times so they can
figure out if you're related
because you know that's part
of their government like they would track all the births and whatnot they're very you know like
consistent with that so they have access to the record so they can tell it's like if you're like
more than third or fourth cousins they like okay but all right at the risk of sounding a little
perverted i feel like third cousin people should be fine with third cousins right third cousins
that's you're basically not even related i wouldn't get i wouldn't say so that's the thing is i
think like a lot. I think if you have the records and like down pack to a science, you can
realize like the third cousins, but there's probably a lot more people who married that are
related than they actually know. Right. Because, but the Icelandics, they just have the record.
First cousins hard, no. I think we can all agree on that. Second cousins. Second cousins seem that
that's, that's really weird. The only way I think second cousins works is if you're together and
then you find out after like years of being together that your second cousins then maybe that's
your parents cousins right yeah wait so your parents cousins children no no I think it's just
your parents cousins yeah yeah what's the legal definition yeah I don't know I don't know how
cousins work to be honest and then there's the remove shit which I never understand I think that's
divorce isn't it I have no idea I'm trying to think so I have a second cousin is someone who shares a great
grandparent with you. Okay. Yeah, no, that's weird. That is weird. Because I do, I have second cousins and
I call them my cousins. Yeah, that's weird. Yeah, no, that's what I was named. Like my mom's cousins,
I consider my cousin. Third cousins is the legal, is the legal precedent. That's like great
grandparents. Uh, okay, let me like great grandparents. Second cousins, you share a great
grandparent. Yeah, so third cousins. Oh my God. There are way more states than you think that
first cousin marriage is legal. It's legal in New York State. It's legal in New York. It's legal in New Jersey.
Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts.
We did this before.
Remember, Rhode Island's the big, like, you can do it ever.
Yeah, you can imagine whoever you want, Rhode Island, it sounds like.
The thing is people, like, if you look back in history, there was a lot more incest.
Back when we had zero travel, like, ability.
So.
Game of Thrones.
Yeah.
Jesus.
Game of Thrones, man.
Iceland actually has a lot of laws regarding, like, to prevent genetic, it's, like,
like it's illegal for kids with certain deformities to be born in Iceland.
Oh, really?
Yeah, it's kind of fucked up.
Yeah, basically.
Eugenics could be a good episode.
Yeah.
Because different societies have, I don't know if good is the right word.
It could be an episode of macrodocene.
And informative.
Yeah.
None of our episodes have to be, like, are about, have to be good.
So wanted to run.
I think we should have a couple good episodes here and there.
Yeah.
Just for the people as a treat.
Like positive.
Because you, there are a couple.
couple podcasts I listen to. I don't know if you guys feel the same way, but there are a few that are in my
semi-regular rotation. And I have to stop every now and again because I'm like, do I really want to
hear about Dan Carlin talking about Japanese soldiers exploding their guts with grenades for another
three hours today? Yes. And so it's like you have to kind of, you have to space it out,
not always talk about like the dark, dark shit and talk about some funner stuff. But I did hear
that Donnie wants to come back on before he goes back overseas.
So I feel like we should have him on
I think he's going back
Two weeks from now
We also have someone else in the office
That wants to come on
Yes, so large
I spoke with large a second ago
He's down
It's a must have
What should the topic be for Donnie?
Should we do the Balkans with Donnie?
So Donnie wanted to do the Balkans
Oh yeah Balkans
Yeah
Oh that's awesome dude the Balkans is crazy
Matt Dogg how do you not know
What the Balkans are
You graduated from college
I only know what the Balkans are because of Donnie.
I don't know what, I still don't know.
Is it a group of countries?
Here's a good way to think about it.
The Balkans are like the Midwest of Europe.
So like what country?
Is that like Albania and shit?
Yeah.
It's like everything above Greece.
Serbia.
Bosnia.
Bulgaria.
Montenegro.
The countries change all the time.
That's like such a sea list.
I wouldn't call it the Midwest.
Yeah, sure it is.
I call Germany the Midwest of Europe.
No.
No.
No.
It's not gray enough.
No way.
Germany's like the New England.
of Europe. I'd call England the New England
of Europe. No. No. We already said
England's the East Coast. No, England is the South.
Yeah, England's the South. We literally talked about it this week.
You actually argued it. This was your argument. Yeah, the Southern accents.
Yeah, no, but that's different. Billy just got his booster shot so his mind is all screwed up right now.
No, I'm just saying England would be New England. The South was in.
I'm going way too literal with this.
I'm just saying like as, like, anyway.
No, I'd say, like Minnesota in the north Midwest is Scandinavia.
Well, yeah, that's because everybody that lives in Minnesota is from Scandinavia.
Right, and everyone, there's so much Germans in the Midwest.
There are a decent amount of Germans in the Midwest.
It's like all German, but we're talking culturally.
I think that the Balkans...
Yeah, it's a culture thing.
We're not talking about geographic.
There are parts of it that are on a nice stretch of water.
Like there's some good coastline
Just like in the Midwest
You got to Great Lakes
Which are beautiful
But it's usually gray there
Usually just a lot of big people walking around
I don't think the Balkans is comparable
To anywhere in the US
Okay
Well we'll talk to Donnie about it
Because it's literally a powder cake
Why are they called the Balkans
Is that where we're going to find out?
I think it has to do with like
Is it a mountain range
I think it's a ball ball
The Balkan sea
There's a Balkan Sea
Oh that is a thing you're right
The Balkan Peninsula
Dude, it's actually insane history.
It's like the battleground of so many empires.
They're like such a warlike people.
I mean, that's a little bit of a generalized statement.
But there's all these stories of like the Ottoman Empire trying to invade these like shepherd tribes there.
And these dudes were just like like Jokic brothers just taking on all empires.
We should get the Jokic brothers on the podcast.
Just the brothers.
I don't want I don't want the actual NBA player, just the brothers.
I like that.
I do want to give some shoutouts on the show today
Okay
First of all, thank you to everyone who bought our merch
You buying our merch gives us the opportunity to make more
So that's super important
You guys sold out almost all of the hoodies
The tie-dye t-shirts
You guys just, you crushed it
Oh wait, the hoodies, those are the ones that have the frogs on them, right?
Yeah, the good frog
Which? No
Which sold more, the hoodies or my frog?
Hoodie.
Hoodie? By how much?
A lot.
A lot.
Now, to be fair, to Billy.
We sent you the picture.
I think that Billy's frog would have sold more if it was on a hoodie.
We can make that happen.
And that's the thing.
Hey, are we sure?
It costs less to buy it on a t-shirt.
Right.
No, I think the frog plays with also the time of year.
Yeah.
Hodies are busy.
Billy fucking hates the audience right now.
He hates you guys.
I literally am fuming.
Yes.
No more NFTs.
That's it.
That does it.
No, but seriously, thank you for buying.
Like I said, it helped.
us get do more merch uh if we show that we can sell a lot we can do a lot more design so there's
going to be a lot more stuff coming for sure also speaking the audience want to thank you guys for

Pop Punk, like I said, I went to the first one, Irving Plaza.
I haven't been one since.
It was one of the best shows ever been to.
Bring your dog.
Well, Mincy could probably get the dog for a night.
Bring Mincy.
But then who's going to take care of the dog?
Bring both.
Big Tea, you're going to come?
That's no.
Can we drink on the bus?
I haven't been invited.
I would say you probably could drink on the bus.
Mad Dog, you were invited.
I would come.
Okay.
You're invited.
When is it Friday night?
Friday night.
I knew that bus is leaving at noon
I think high noon
it's leaving noon yeah
okay I'm in
all right there we go
Big T are you coming? No
why not
because it's not where I live
it's a good point I mean
we are asking Big T to go in the opposite direction of his house
yeah so that's that's tough
I think we're playing on maybe doing
a pop punk country's album covers
like 90s country
love that
back when country music was good yeah do some no there is some good country music
taylor swift sam hunt or swift sam hunt in like the early 20 like mid 2010 sam hunt's amazing
and then there's tyler childers and zach brian they're sick cult or wall uh separate the art
from the artist morgan wallen he's got a little more he's got some bangers he's the number one
selling album of 2021 of any genre you got canceled though
I know, but he still had the number one telling you.
I know.
Funny how that works.
I actually have to say.
It's actually the best thing for you.
There's some pretty, like, obvious Morgan Wallen propaganda on TikTok of people.
There's like a guy at a Morgan Wallen concert who's holding up a sign saying Morgan, like, it's like clear propaganda.
Stop.
Stop.
You don't want to just stop.
The way that Billy's dancing around this makes me very nervous.
I know what a sign can say anything.
this basically I literally think that his record company or whatever is like paying people to put out like positive Morgan Wall and propaganda though I take that are you talking about like paying for black people to go to his shows and say is that what you're saying yeah okay you just you felt uncomfortable saying the word black people no because I was trying to the sign basically says what he said says Morgan Wallen is my okay yeah all right Cole are you coming for sure not I'm gonna go see one of the country I'm
artist. Billy didn't list the two
best country artists. Who are in your opinion?
Brothers Osborne are pretty good.
I don't know who they are, so I can't speak on them.
Luke Combs on Friday. Luke Combs rules.
And Sturgle Simpson blows
all these people away.
I think he's just the best musician alive
currently at the moment. Like, I don't
know who's really seeing him.
I don't even know in a verses.
I don't know if Sturge would do a verses, but I think he'd mop up the floor.
You know, I think we just proved
that country music is actually good.
Yeah, Chris Stapleton's good too.
I like his voice.
I forgot about St.
Yeah, he's an amazing singer.
He's on a Taylor's song.
Good guitar player, too.
Very talented guy.
And yes, I think that Sturgle is amazing.
I loved his new album that he put out.
A lot of people didn't like it.
I didn't like it.
There's a concept album.
Anytime I write a song about a dog that dies,
I'm going to listen to it.
I'm going to cry, okay?
Yeah, you got your...
It was a tough timing for you.
It was real tough timing for you.
very tough RIP Leroy it's miss you it wasn't filled with bangers but it's good just like listen
on the subway it's almost like a podcast yes yeah good point uh but if you haven't listened
sturgle simpson or maybe you have maybe you're a sturgeon and you haven't checked out his cover
paradise by john prine go listen to right now one of my favorite songs ever written uh being covered by
one of my favorite artists of all time i was lucky enough to go see sturgle and john prine play together
at Radio City a couple years ago.
It was amazing.
What a great night.
Sergio Simpson rocks.
Country music isn't all bad.
I agree.
But there's some,
they got some work to do
to get back in my good graces.
Even the pop ones
are kind of catchy, though.
No.
I'm going down to dirt road.
Dringing my bud light beer.
No,
you're just not listening to the right songs.
Dirt Road by Jason Aldean's kind of a...
It's actually a song.
My mom loves that song.
You don't know dirt road by Jason Aldeed?
I got his little pretty thing on my lap.
I don't like a lot of a lot of pop country because I agree there's a there's a line of
delineation between pop country which is the what gets pushed more like the fucking
Applebee's song I didn't realize that was a full song yeah but shut your fuck up you just hate it
because it was played so many times no I I didn't know well hey it's just it's an objectively
bad song the Applebee's on Applebee's on a date night or whatever that was a song
before it was an Applebee's oh my god right I didn't know that
But even if I didn't hear it on the commercial first, still an objectively terrible song.
You know, you know what?
Maybe the worst thing that's ever been worse than Rebecca Black's Friday for sure.
The way that I've just discovered this information, I like that song like a million times more.
Yeah.
Now that I know after the fact, when I saw it just in the Applebee's commercial, I was like, this song is a shitty commercial song.
But now that I know that it's a real song that was written before Applebee's was even paying them to sing about Applebee's, now I'm all in.
I don't know that we can prove that it wasn't written with the intent to be a commercial.
Well, it, you, it wasn't because it, Applebee's doesn't realize that it's talking about them being like poor, kind of.
He's like, oh, necessarily.
I mean, Appleby's whole thing is like enjoying the, the simple things in life, I guess.
But it's like, yeah, like we just go to Applebee's where they have like fucking this shit instead of like a nice restaurant.
Unlimited apps.
Ribble it.
But he's also celebrating it as.
Correct.
Right. Correct.
Like, so I do think it was, we can do a deep dive on that.
My conspiracy radar is up.
My high school girlfriend, I took her to Applebee's one time, and then I told her friend who was rich that I was taking her to Applebee's.
And by the way, I was, I had just finished up a weekend selling Christmas trees.
My fingers were worn to the bone, and I had $200 in my pocket.
And I was going to go spend $150 at Applebee's.
That's a baller date.
baller date and then her friend was like oh my god i can't believe you're taking her to applebees
i was like shut the fuck up now she's divorced twice so uh the high the girl you were taking out or the
no the the the dumb friend oh yeah yeah well done friends obviously undatable undatable so
i think i won that one put that in your fucking commercial applebees if you don't support
people going there on dates you'll never find love and you'll die alone it's not about the
venue it's about the person that's right billy you don't want to be with somebody that doesn't want to
be with you just because you're going out for riblet night getting those southwestern egg well actually
that's chillies um same restaurant basic no no no no no no chilies blows apple bees out of the water
that's yeah that's fair but like same concept chilies is for college like when you're little
applebees is high school chilies is that's chileys is for college and beyond like and maybe like
young adult like always no work yourself
I will be going to Chili's until the day I die.
There's nothing like bottomless chips, man.
I will be going to Chili's the day I die.
Big T's going to die in a Chili's.
I would love that.
That's my preference.
With a bowl of fajitas right in front of him.
Do you like Chili is more than like Waffle House and places like that?
It sounds like it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wow.
Chilies is my number one chain restaurant for sure.
For sure.
I don't hate it.
Listen, I don't hate it.
I think it's a good pick.
Big T's also a big yard house.
guy now. Oh, that's true. Yard house is right. It's not chilies though. Like it's a different
vibe. It's not as Cheney either. He had his first margarita at a yard house a couple weeks ago.
I think is that a beer place though? It's like an American. Yeah. I think Big T's getting in his
bag a lot. It sounds like it. It's been the winner of Big T's so far. Big T's all it's every
winter is the winner of Big Tate. Every summer, every fall. Every season. Undefeated. Oh, you know
Every season's tea season.
You know what a good topic would be,
it would be the Bill Clinton affair.
Yeah.
I know I just talked about that in the last one,
but I feel like we could dive in on a lot of his dives.
Do you think we could get Monica Lewinsky on the podcast?
Probably not.
I don't think so.
I'm going to guess no.
Are you saying no like we shouldn't or no she would say no?
I would love to have her on the show.
I absolutely.
She used to live across the street for me.
What?
Really?
Uh-huh.
Like in New York?
Yeah.
What?
Yeah.
She lived on, I'm not going to say the name of the street because then I just realized I'm giving my home address.
I wonder what she does now.
She's like a anti-bullying activist.
She raises a women's advocate.
She has a lot of awareness.
I think she mostly just tries to keep herself occupied.
Maybe I can reach out like women to woman.
Yeah.
Hey, Monica.
Want to come on the pod?
Yeah, maybe don't do the like raspy.
Hey, Monica.
Hey, Monica.
It might work.
Who knows?
We just have to be respectful, not ask crazy questions and just talk about it real.
Correct.
And I won't bring these cigars at large.
Just gave me.
Okay.
We will see you next week on macro dosing.
We'll see you Tuesday.
Love you guys.
Have a great weekend.
Want to go Chili's?
Yes.
There isn't one in New York City.
At all?
Nope.
Really?
No.
It's one by my house.
Not a single fucking one.
We're going to Jersey for Chili's.
Bro, I don't know if we're still recording or not,
but you should probably put this in the show.
This tells you how much I love Chili's.
One Saturday, I took the train to New Jersey,
got off in the middle and nowhere in fucking,
it was like near East Rutherford, I think,
and walked to Chili's because I wanted to go to Chili's so bad.
Please tell me you had people with you.
No, I was alone.
I respect that.
I did that one time driving out to Leesburg, Virginia,
to get Roy Rogers because that's the only...
