Starting point is 00:00:00 As women, our life stages come with unique risk factors, like when our estrogen levels drop during menopause, causing the risk of heart disease to go up. Know your risks. Visit heartandstroke.ca. We lost some microphones towards the end of this podcast, so I had to do some audio salvaging. This sort of thing has happened on the blowout before, and we're still trying to find the root cause of it. Anyway, it's just about the last minute or two of this episode gets a little funkified, but we hope you enjoy it anyway. Hey folks, welcome to the Sloppy Boys, where we take a deep dive into the drinks that you love. I'm Jeff Dutton, along with Michael Hanford. What?
Starting point is 00:00:58 And Tim Kalpakis. What is up? And we are back from tour, which you can hear about on our latest Patreon episode. West Coast Tour Recap. And we are live in person this time. Once again, on our latest Patreon episode, West Coast Tour Recap. And we are live in person this time, once again. All in one room, back in L.A. Back in Jeff's house. Sitting configuration a little different.
Starting point is 00:01:14 Jeff has taken the main seat. The throne. It's not the main seat. It's the main seat. That's a nice seat, Tim. I've been giving Tim the main seat. Yeah, Tim and I are on the couch, which I don't mind. I like it. I like it.
Starting point is 00:01:22 I'm doing a side sit. My microphone broke, so I'm using kind of a funny microphone, if I sound different. But I'm also kind of, I got my legs crossed, kind of sitting sideways like a talk show guest who's getting a little too cozy. I'm taking it easy on this one. I'm not my usual, you're up on the microphone, tense. I'm so tense all the time. That's the big complaint about me recently is, Mike, you're very tense.
Starting point is 00:01:44 We're a little woke. We're a little road weary. Right. Yeah, yeah. Yes, very much. It kind of sands the rough edges off you. We did two big long driving days in a row. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:56 Two, I think, 10-hour days. From Vancouver to LA in two days. Stayed in a beautiful town. Well, this is all on the Patreon. Sorry, folks, you're not getting that. Well, if you want to know where we stayed between, yeah, before we got the rental van home.
Starting point is 00:02:12 Where did they stay? Days in or comforted? Okay, now, well, since we are talking about tour, I was going to save this for Booze News, but maybe I'll bring it up right now during shit chat. Nice. I brought a clip. Clip chat. it's called clip scandal rocks the pod uh listen to this uh a certain musician caught in the act oh no what act Guess who this is?
Starting point is 00:02:46 A sound I've never heard before. Well, we've heard it plenty. Yes, it's Sloppy Boy's drummer, Jefferson Dutton, snoring away. No! Forcefully passing wind through his nasals. I thought I was the lone non-snorer. No, you are one of the bunch. I've been shamed and raked over my coals for my loud
Starting point is 00:03:06 chronic snoring. Then Jeff shamed Mike by playing a clip on our Patreon blowout of Mike snoring. Then Tim, the audio journalist, caught Jeff in Costa Mesa. And might I say, this was pre-show.
Starting point is 00:03:22 What? This was you snoring in your little nap pre-show. I think it was Long Beach, Tim. Long Beach, yes. Long Beach. Now, I notice there's no video accompanying this clip. No. I thought that would be rude.
Starting point is 00:03:34 No, but there's anecdotal... Me. Witness. Witness? Anecdotal witness. You co-sign? Yes, I co-sign. I saw the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:03:42 I was livid. And Tim took it into a much nicer area. I was about to drop the TV on your head. You should have dropped the TV out the window like Keith Hood. Yeah. First floor, though. That's no good. Well, they could do it back in the old days because those weren't 4K HD TVs.
Starting point is 00:04:02 They were much cheaper. Yeah, these days everything's flat screen. Okay, Jeff, how do you feel having been shamed? I have to do some reassessing and sort of like inner looks at myself. It's time for you to do more listening than talking probably. Yeah, now is the time to listen, I think.
Starting point is 00:04:17 Yeah, because we've listened enough to you and you're snoring. Now, how about this? Now, wait, hold on. You and your many snores. When you caught the sound on recording, was there any trickery afoot? Was maybe Mike holding one of my nostrils closed?
Starting point is 00:04:32 No, we didn't. I told you, I was holding the TV, ready to drop it on your head. Oh, right, right. And Tim stopped me. That's your alibi. Now, I had a second clip I didn't bring because it was way too quiet,
Starting point is 00:04:40 but you also snored again during the day, I want to say in Portland remember I was trying to record him in Portland in his cubby hole but it was I listened to it back it wasn't
Starting point is 00:04:52 it wasn't really a snore it was more of a loud breathe and how deep do you want to bury this guy I mean you've got you've got what you need exactly I don't want to fuck up his life
Starting point is 00:04:59 he's got a wonderful family no no this isn't like but you know it's just it's just interesting that those who live in glass houses throw many a snore.
Starting point is 00:05:09 The guy we sequestered behind the quote-unquote snore door for many stays. Yeah, I was booking hotels, and I chose suites that had snore doors that we could... Here's the good thing, folks. If you snore, sometimes you get the king bed to yourself. Yeah, that's tough. And you sure did, didn't you?
Starting point is 00:05:23 You know, here's the other... Well, about throwing glass houses? No, throwing stones at glass houses. I was, when we were in, well, on our way back, this place we stayed on our way back from Vancouver, which I'm not going to say,
Starting point is 00:05:36 you've got to go to the Patriot City. Where did we stay? The sleeping situation was such that Jeff was on one side of me Tim was on the other side I get snoring at the same time from both of you Surround sound baby I don't know which person
Starting point is 00:05:52 I didn't record it, it was one of those things Only one TV, you don't know who to smash I was half awake and I was like You know when you wake up from a dream You're like, ooh I gotta write that down I'll remember it, it was this I was like, I'll record them next time they do it I'm sleeping you in yeah and that hotel you shook my bed mm-hmm because cuz that Oh kicked it that was a good foot yeah and that
Starting point is 00:06:19 tends to any sort of jostle even if it doesn't wake me up, makes me stop storing. This time it woke me up and then I looked to see what it was. You had already gotten back under the covers in your bed. You're fast. Well, I could reach it from the bed, from my bed. So you just kicked your leg up? Yeah, I have long legs. Well, when I looked back I saw no movement from you. It wasn't even like you're
Starting point is 00:06:39 pulling your leg back. It's like a long snake of a leg reading. But Tim, you're on grog time. You don't know how that could have been. I'm on grog time, but I looked right at, I looked at Mike.
Starting point is 00:06:50 This was like 6 a.m. in the morning. So I stayed awake after that, in fact. Oh, I'm sorry about that. No, that's fine. But, but,
Starting point is 00:06:58 what was funny is I look, I see, who jostled my bed? Mike's sleeping. And I said, two thoughts. First,
Starting point is 00:07:04 is this one of these sex beds? Coin operated like on the Simpsons. Sure. You didn't go supernatural. That's interesting. I didn't realize those were sex beds. They're sex beds. Rumbling beds.
Starting point is 00:07:14 I thought it was like a massage type bed. Yeah. I don't know. Well, what if you put your dick on the bed? That's a whole nother beast. Then my second thought was earthquake. Sure. And then my third thought was, oh, I must have been honking the nose.
Starting point is 00:07:30 No ghost. You brought up, well, ghost, that's interesting because I'm going to talk about ghosts. You brought up grog time. Yeah. You know, a lot of people, they have stories about like, I woke up from sleep and I saw a woman in a laced bridal dress walking into my room and I knew it was a ghost. I think a lot of ghost appearances can be explained in grog time. Grog time.
Starting point is 00:07:50 Sleep paralysis. I'm half awake. I'm half asleep. I'm still dreaming. I don't know what's going on. Yep. There's now a ghost in my room. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:59 But I got to cover myself and say, maybe it's not. It is ghosts. We don't want any problems. And if you're a ghost, come on the pod. That'd be fun. Defend yourself. Hey, we're coming up on ghost season. Or are we in ghost season? October. I think we're in it.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Yeah. October 1st is not really ghost season. You gotta get into it. At least the 13th. Or the 6th. Well, is that it for Shit Chat? Let's get into some bi-bi-bi-bi-bi-booze news. Hit it.
Starting point is 00:08:30 I am putting a new song out sort of the pop punk genre. It's very good. Could be a song of the summer. I get it done in time. And it's a fun song. It's like you're at a party and somebody, it's like
Starting point is 00:08:43 we're having fun and this is happening oh my god uh old friends are here and then somebody does something weird and then right before the chorus like it all drops down it's like a sample thing so that just happened yeah everybody taking a shot Yeah.

Starting point is 00:09:49 It was sent to us by Justin Moorer, who's calling himself the Duke of Drops. And if you have a Booze News theme, email it to thesloppyboyspodcast at gmail.com. That was good. Justin, what was his name? Yeah, Justin Moorer. Justin Moorer really realized that song
Starting point is 00:10:04 we had just kind of been talking about and figured out he even Let's party with you! He played the guitar parts of us going He found it. I like that idea. Let's party with you. It's like a group of people
Starting point is 00:10:17 they're encountering a new person. Let's party with you! It's good. When you're good, you're good. Yeah. Okay, just one little bit of booze. We missed this while we were out of town. This was interesting to me.
Starting point is 00:10:31 You know who passed away at the age of 79 was Fred Franzia. Oh, Franzia Liquor, right? Franzia Box Wine? Yes. Box Wine, yeah. Listen to this. So this is Franzia the son. He inherited the Franzia fortune.
Starting point is 00:10:50 But all of the- Now was he the one who died, you mean? Yes. The son who died at 78. Gotcha. This is an old fortune. But here's the New York Times headline. Fred Franzia, 79, dies.
Starting point is 00:11:01 Upended wine industry with two-buck Chuck. 79 dies upended wine industry with two buck chuck and then I looked up this guy's famous oh for inventing the two dollar
Starting point is 00:11:10 bottle of wine that it was exclusively sold Charles Shaw Charles Shaw is that the big jug no that's Carlo Rossi
Starting point is 00:11:17 oh yeah okay uh two buck chuck it's Charles Shaw it would just look like a normal bottle of like Cabernet uh they had a bunch of them, but it was like Trader Joe's.
Starting point is 00:11:28 But it was elsewhere too, right? Or was it a Trader Joe's? I think it was briefly in the late aughts. Maybe it was exclusive to Trader Joe's and then sold other places as well. But here's what I'm just bringing up because I thought it was interesting that
Starting point is 00:11:44 I said Franzia, you said box wine. The answer to that is yes. So these two generations of Francia's, his dad is the box wine guy. And we all know that bottle of Francia box wine. And like maybe you're like toted around a high school party. And the dad passes on this big, you know, like the Napa Valley Illuminati of wine. I hate the name Franzia because it's like devaluing wine. And the old Franzia guy was like, I don't care.
Starting point is 00:12:14 I'll make box wine. I'll get rich. Wine should be for everyone. And then when he died, he passed the company on to his son. And then his son had another innovation. Innovator. Yeah. Wow.
Starting point is 00:12:26 His son's going to come up with like hologram wine or something even crazier. You know it'll probably be the wine app. Why not? Wait a minute, that's good. Don't take that one! Wine-ot. Wine-in-ot. Franzia the third?
Starting point is 00:12:41 Did you guys drink that two buck jug? I'm sure I've had it before, but I can't remember. Because I was picturing the big jug. I've had that. In my memory, the big jug is bad because it's pretty sweet. That Carlo Rossi is like $7 for a gallon. Yeah. But I feel like Charles Shaw Cabernet Sauvignon was my way into wine.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Sure. Shaw Cabernet Sauvignon was my way into wine. Sure. When you're like 22 and you got no money, but you want to feel like I'm going to a dinner party, you bring a $2 bottle of that shit and it wasn't bad. It wasn't good. That's the thing. It punched a little above its weight for something that was that cheap.
Starting point is 00:13:19 It just wasn't too powerful. You know how all the seltzers are like, you're like, why they put too much flavor i feel like the the the beauty of the charles shaw wine is it wasn't super sweet like the other like other cheap wines are like crazy sweet yeah two buck chuck is funny because i i didn't realize it was something called called charles shaw that's really funny and i just thought it would refer to like two buck chuck is any cheap wine uh nope but that's funny that. I just thought it would refer to 2 Buck Chuck as any cheap wine. Nope. It was Charles Shaw.
Starting point is 00:13:47 That's great. It's also funny that this guy's name is not Charles Shaw. I don't know who he named it after. It sounds more like a law firm or an investment bank. Growing up, there was a wine called Howie Manzetti's
Starting point is 00:14:04 and it was $2 Howard. Oh, God. I don't know. Fake news, everybody. That is a joke. You just got pranked here on the pod. $2 Howard? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:14:15 $2 Howard maybe kind of sounded funny. You could have said $1 Donald. Yes, I could have. I could have also just kept my mouth shut and moved on to my piece of booze news. You have booze news? I have health news in booze news. That's right. You guys already know what it is.
Starting point is 00:14:32 I'm keto now. I've gone keto, okay? I kind of messed it up this morning. I had a Z-bar and... You had that Z-bar from Vancouver? That's right. Well, I know you were experimenting with keto cubes in the car on the way down. Yeah, pineapple chunks.
Starting point is 00:14:47 Pineapple chunks. And keto sticks. Keto sticks. Carrot sticks. Now, I'm... I also had chili quiles today at a restaurant for breakfast. Okay. So that has carbs.
Starting point is 00:14:59 Have you had... Everything you've mentioned so far has not been keto. Have you had anything that's keto yes yeah i saw him he had cottage cheese i had cottage cheese tomatoes right before this pod cottage cheese sounds very everything i bought some stuff at the grocery store for while i'm staying at jeff's house here for the couple days before i go back to new york i got oh my god i got chicken i got got a Beyond Burger No bread, of course More sticks, more carrot sticks
Starting point is 00:15:28 So the news is you've been keto for about An hour and 45 minutes Well, okay, the intention is that I'm keto It's tough to keep keto We're behind you Your beloved keto cubes Pineapples, that's like the sugariest fruit I can't be keto
Starting point is 00:15:44 Is that keto? We are initially, me and my team, are staying just away from carbs. That's the idea. So that's not necessarily... I don't think it can be done. This is going to be very hard for me. Well, is
Starting point is 00:15:59 pineapple keto? No. The answer on Google, no. Why? Because of fruit sugars? Pineapple is not keto-friendly on its own. However, there are ways to cut down on pineapple carb count and still enjoy its fruity flavor. Well, I think that, yeah, that's a very
Starting point is 00:16:15 sweet, sweet fruit. Hold on to your butt, though. Always. Are carrots keto? Carrots can be eaten when keto. Wow. But it may be difficult to include them regularly or in large quantities as they contain a fair amount of carbs. They contain it.
Starting point is 00:16:34 So. All right. Okay. You're going to want to eat lettuce and chicken all the time. Yeah. I mean, if keto be high fat, have your buffalo wings, have your ribeyes. Okay. Blue cheese.
Starting point is 00:16:43 We are amending. So this is not. I'm not doing keto. I'm doing Hanford gets healthy. That's what this is. Hanford eats healthy. You know what you could be doing? He has some fruit, vegetables. He doesn't eat carbs anymore.
Starting point is 00:16:55 He doesn't eat candy. He loves candy. He won't eat it. Maybe he eats popcorn when he goes to the movies. You do love candy. I remember. I think I have the thing for you after this. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:17:02 I just. After the break. Remarking when we were in the gas station, one of the million gas stations we came across, you came up with the slop card and said, I got us some snacks to try, all of us to try. And you picked the weirdest fucking snacks. I was like, I don't get any of these on the company card.
Starting point is 00:17:18 It was Starburst Air Puffs. Starburst Softs. Starburst Softs. Hey, everybody, I got the most ubiquitous snack we all know and love anyone would have got. They were weird tasting. I ate the whole bag. Then I got plain chips that said Tim's on them. The Tim's were the best.
Starting point is 00:17:34 Those were allowed on the card. This is too much for the tour talk. That is all saved for the Patreon. Sorry folks. I just want to say, yes, I want to hear about this. Maybe your thing is Whole30. Because you do, it is a very hand, because pineapple is like a fruit. It's not processed, you know?
Starting point is 00:17:52 A carrot is a vegetable. It's not processed. Love it. And you, when you made me and Jeff dinner, you put a whole artichoke on the plate. I could see you avoiding the processed foods and just eating meat and vegetables and fruit, things that come from Earth. Are we talking paleo? No, because I would let him eat a potato.
Starting point is 00:18:12 You know, he could eat a carb. I'm going to try to stay, I'm going to low carb and but I like this. It's more just like being I think it's all just more about being conscious of what you eat and not just going hey, I'm hungry, there's pizza. I told's pizza let me eat as many pieces as i can um i was talking to you know hank the abso editor uh-huh um i was telling him uh he was he's vegan and i was that's got it that
Starting point is 00:18:39 seems very difficult i said to him it's not like a hollywood event. I was like, yeah, I eat a lot of meat. But I'll tell you this. I've been trying to be a little more mindful. Like when I eat a steak, I don't just like gobble it down without thinking. I'll think like, oh, I'm like eating an animal, you know, and I should think about that while I'm eating this. And for me, I have been doing that, and it's nice. But I told Hank, I was like, you know, I've been like doing this. And's nice but I told Hank I've been doing this
Starting point is 00:19:05 and he was like yeah I'm sure that cow really gives a fuck which is true they don't like to be well slaughtered and eaten this was a Hollywood event you said
Starting point is 00:19:16 yeah so Hollywood where a clap is his king yes someday that whole town will be mine did he know he was talking to the king
Starting point is 00:19:23 yeah he wouldn't have Snarked me like that What anniversary is it from Or for Eric Clapton and B.B. King's Riding with the King album We should cover that It's gotta be 25 years
Starting point is 00:19:37 We should cover that Cover the whole album? Why not? That's so funny Eric Clapton sitting in a convertible with B.B. King Yeah I'm covering B.B in a convertible with BB King. Like, yeah, I'm covering BB King. Riding with the king.
Starting point is 00:19:50 Well, is that it for booze news? Wrap it up. Why don't we get into the D of the D? I love it. VG. VG. VG. Oh, my God. Don't say VG.
Starting point is 00:20:02 Why not? It's a bad podcast. Oh. Folks, today we're talking about the paradise you've heard. Never heard, nor have had. Not heard, not had. Well, not a huge history behind this one, so I'm going to bash through it real quick. Streamline it.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Laser show. Let's go. Harry Craddock. Love him. You know, you love him. Corpse survivor. White lady. Several of us. The Savoy you love him. Corpse survivor. White lady. Several of us.
Starting point is 00:20:26 The Savoy Hotel in London. That's right, Timmy. He was a English fella. Sure. Came to America. Did a bunch of bartending. Left when things got very Prohibition-y. Refresh me.
Starting point is 00:20:36 Okay, so refresh me and the listener. Yeah. So he's around Prohibition at the 20s. Yes. Yeah, and this is the Harry that's not not harry's bar harry's new york bar in paris that's harry mccallum this is harry credick they're contemporaries michael they are contemporary that's right so he goes to the savoy hotel in london in 1920 he's doing that for a decade or more because this book the savoy cocktail book published in 1930 contains the first record
Starting point is 00:21:02 of the paradise there you. There you go. So that's kind of it. But I did notice one other fun little thing. On May 27th, 2018 Snoop Dogg, friend of the pod. Hey, Snoop. Set the world record for the largest gin and juice and 132 gallon paradise cocktail that contained 180 bottles of gin,
Starting point is 00:21:22 154 bottles of apricot brandy, and 38 gallons of orange juice. That's not a gin and juice that has apricot brandy in it. That's kind of weird. Well, it's gin and juice. Yeah, but rolling down the street smoking endo, sipping on apricot brandy? No. See, that's what I thought. Where did he put this all in?
Starting point is 00:21:40 I did a little digging. Well, that was for like some big Napa Valley thing or something like that. I don't know. Napa Valley. That's him. That's famous Snoop looking back. But you mean to tell me that young Snoop is hunting down apricot brandy and putting it back when that song came out? No.
Starting point is 00:21:55 So I did a little digging, right? According to Pandora, Snoop talked about the origin of this song saying, quote, gin and juice was the choice of drink for a young player. 1991, 1992, you didn't have a lot of money, so you go get that gin. this song saying quote gin and juice was the choice of drink for a young player 1991 1992 you didn't have a lot of money so you go get that gin when it came time to make the record doggy style that was my thing every day i would come into the studio with my bottle of gin and juice in it and dre would have a big ass milk jug full of gin and juice we were in the studio one day and someone was singing that song someone was singing that slave song watching you we flipped it into rolling down the street, smoking in dough,
Starting point is 00:22:25 sipping on gin and juice, and made it happen from there. Now, have you guys heard that song, Watching You? No. I'm going to play it for you. Ooh. Because I like hearing where these things come from, and this isn't an obvious one. Especially such a big song.
Starting point is 00:22:42 Walking down the street, watching ladies go by. Oh, wow. Watching ladies go by watching you so they they like they changed it quite a bit yeah interpolated interpolated replayed it re-performed it changed the lyrics yeah. And songfacts.com elaborates, because I was trying to figure out what is in this, what's in the gin and juice from the song. Mm-hmm. Snoop's gin and juice recipe was
Starting point is 00:23:13 tangaree gin mixed with a fruit drink called Super Saco. He later switched to Donald Duck brand orange juice. He and his friends would mix them in the Donald Duck bottles so it would look like they were just drinking orange juice, folks.
Starting point is 00:23:26 Snoop's doing the Popo No-No. Nice. Oh, I love that. Nobody knows what's going on, but you all of a sudden are a lot louder and happier than everyone else. A little loud mouth soup. Yeah. Did you guys see on Instagram someone made the Popo No-No, like a Topo Chico? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:43 A logo that said Popo no no that was pretty good um hold on i'm looking something walkie talkie popo no no no remember we saw on the road we saw billboards for i'm gonna brandy the the singer whoops oh yeah was in door it was the spokesperson for a type of Brandy. I forget what it was. Stella Rosa? Stella Rosa. That's wild.
Starting point is 00:24:09 Brandy selling Brandy? Why'd it take so long? That's what I'm thinking. Why? That's funny, too, because music, a lot of people, music people endorse cognac, and Brandy is cognac, but I think it's, you know, like cognac is like the fancier, like all cognac is brandy, but not all brandy is cognac. Love it. So it means like to get the pun of her name and have it be clever, they made it be not
Starting point is 00:24:32 cognac. You know, it's like a step down, but it fits the name better. Well, do you want to know the recipe? I'd love it. Yes. Folks, you're going to need 30 milliliters of gin. Got it. 20 milliliters apricot brandy i should have it 15 milliliters fresh orange juice nice pour all ingredients into a cocktail
Starting point is 00:24:54 shaker shake well with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass i'm seeing these in coops we have chilled the glasses yeah they're chilled coops um let me ask you this what type of gin you got here i got tangare and i also as of an hour ago i got some hennessy sorry some hendrix oh maybe we do the tangare in in honor of snoop's biggest uh gin and juice i think round one i'll do a little tangare but i also i've always wanted to go back and forth and see the difference well you'll tell the difference they're very different uh i feel my guess is hendrix would be more similar to what harry craddock was using however let me tell you this the next two ingredients we've got poor
Starting point is 00:25:36 quality because i'm talking about i went i went i bought our uh apricot brandy well i figured there would be like apricot schnapps that's cheaper you know fake or whatever and then the apricot brandy would be a beautiful bottle of brandy that was brewed up with apricots no down on the bottom shelf there's a cap and cork hyrum walker it looks like all the other silly yeah a name you can trust a name that don't cost you much nice a cheapy all with all the other peppermint schnapps and all the bullshit, apricot. And, you know, like a picture of an apricot. And I was like, this is apricot liqueur.
Starting point is 00:26:11 And it said apricot brandy. So it was brandy. Hiram Walker. So it was very cheap. So it won't be the good stuff. And then. Did they have a more expensive brand? No, I asked.
Starting point is 00:26:23 Yeah, it seems like something like that. You go to a liquor store. It's like, we got the one asked. Yeah, it seems like something like that. You go to a liquor store, it's like, we got the one thing. If you like it. They had a fancy apricot liqueur, but it wasn't a brandy. I bought the brandy one. Just feels,
Starting point is 00:26:33 it's funny for Hiram Walker to make like a $12 brandy. And brandy is a cognac. And a cognac is close to whiskey? Closest? Brandy is made from grapes, but it's put in barrels, so it tastes whiskey-ish. Gotcha. And then fancy brandy is made from grapes but it's put in barrels so it tastes whiskey ash and then
Starting point is 00:26:46 fancy brandy from uh france's cognac and what about the oj i want to hear about that oh i did bad oh i have some oj but it's just i bought it before we toured so it's like three weeks old that might be better because i they didn't have any of the good stuff, so I have a plastic bottle of From Concentrate Tropicana, not the good Tropicana, which is probably close to what Snoop was drinking. Yeah, the Donald Duck probably was that stuff. Donald Duck was that stuff, but Harry Craddock. And by the way, why is Donald Duck on orange juice at all? Yeah, there's not really a time.
Starting point is 00:27:21 Because he's kind of got a sour, acidic vibe. Yeah. Quack. Quack yeah quack quack quack but you know i'm sure i bet harry craddock was mixing him they probably didn't even sell at the time and he was squeezing oh shit was oh yeah right why are we i started this but why are we going to the snoop restaurant we should be doing that we should do harry craddock craddock craddock they probably in the 20, they didn't have concentrate yet. That's like a very, like, post-World War II type of thing to do. Was Donald Duck around in the 20s?
Starting point is 00:27:52 Uh, shit, man. I'm going to look that up. Mickey was doing his thing, probably. Mickey was doing his thing, for sure. Let me see when... Donald Duck is probably the age of Toad. Yeah, we should also look up his canonical age. Yeah. How old is Donald Duck? Well, it says he's 86 but i want his canonical
Starting point is 00:28:11 age when was donald duck invented what do you say what's the say in his license 1937 he had not yet been he was just a twinkle in walt's eye Damn. He looked very straight. I like the new Donald Duck. I'll say it. Well, what do you think? Are we prepared to shake it up? Shake, shake, shake. And drink it down? Shake, shake, shake.
Starting point is 00:28:33 Shake up a paradise drink. Want to do it? Mickey Mouse was created in 1928 steamboat Mickey. All right, folks. We'll meet you right back here after these messages. After these messages, we'll be right back. And we're back.
Starting point is 00:29:03 Paradises in hand. Yes. Paradiso. These look like yellowbirds to me. Paradises in hand. Yes. Paradiso. These look like yellowbirds to me. Don't smell like it. I like the look of them. It's a pleasant hue. It's interesting. A drink called Paradise, when I saw it on the IBA, I was like, oh, that's going to be
Starting point is 00:29:15 like a tiki drink. Right. No, this is a refined British stiffy. Right. I would at least have expected some type of accoutrement. Yeah. No garnish. Not even cubes.
Starting point is 00:29:30 Nothing. All right. Sips? Let's fucking have it. Ooh, deliciously cold. Ooh, strong. Interesting with the apricot. That's a stiffy, man.
Starting point is 00:29:42 This is the type of thing that could be on a martini menu, the type that we make fun of. Yeah, that tastes like a martini, doesn't it? Because it's gin forward. The apricot is coming through, and it's light on the OJ. I like that, that it's not juicy at all. It just makes it a little bit translucent. Oh, an apricot martini would be good. Very light
Starting point is 00:30:00 on the OJ. You're drinking one, my man. But without the orange juice. You can taste the orange in there? I get a little bit. My tongue is so refined, I could taste a pickle in a haystack. God, I couldn't think of fucking one thing this year. A pickle in a haystack? Yeah, Jesus.
Starting point is 00:30:19 I could taste a chili flake in a stew. Yeah, okay. That's not bad. I know, it's not bad. Ooh, that made me flake in a stew. Yeah, okay. That's not bad. Ooh, that made me think. Maybe you said stew. Stew's great, man. Remember I had that really spicy vermicelli noodle soup in Vancouver? Maybe when I get home, I'll order some spicy food.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Oh, hey. Tim, that was great to go up to foggy, rainy Vancouver. We're all feeling clammy and unwashed. Last night of the tour, gross. Gross.ouver we're all feeling you know clammy and last night of the tour gross gross and we were like you know what let the pizza place is closed that was our first choice we went to the pho place and i remember when you when you finished that hot soup you said i feel like i went to a spa i love it it was so spicy it was also just boiling hot and i just drizzled my nose right into it but also like it just raises
Starting point is 00:31:07 your core temperature you know yeah i felt great it's a total reset great this is an interesting drink i like this i like that it's stiff i don't like when you shake and you pour into a cocktail shaker you taste it and it's too sweet or it's too juicy. Now, you know, we've gotten some slow gin. We've gotten now the apricot. I'm thinking of all the sort of Hiram Walker type things we've got, the peach schnapps. I wonder if you could just kind of substitute out the, what it would be like to substitute out the apricot
Starting point is 00:31:39 and throw another, throw peach in there. Yeah, I bet you could. And then throw in the peppermint. That would be weird. I would also like to do with some actual like orange peppermint this hyrum walker apricot brandy is not brandyish at all i stole a little sip it's clear it does not taste like it's from a lab they're lying yeah so if you if you had like a dark beautiful brandy in this that would be a different drink yeah do you want to do a tangaree yeah tangaree side by side
Starting point is 00:32:06 yeah tangaree taste test okay with hendrix starring hendrix it was the hendrix the hendrix i saw some other recipes for this drink that use like have like lemon juice instead of oj and a few other things. Oh, yeah, I did see a bunch with lemon juice, but not Harry Craddock's. No, we got to go with the man, the myth, the legend. You know what? These little coupe glasses you got, Jeff, are really nice.
Starting point is 00:32:31 They're very, folks, if you can hear this, they're very thin glass, very thin glass, very dainty. That's Target. Nice. Target, baby. A glass that's dainty like this makes, I think, the drink just taste a little more like,
Starting point is 00:32:46 ooh, what a classic drink. This one chills up nice. Yeah. This was a classic, not contemporary classic. What would this be on the list? IBA. Unforgettables. Unforgettables.
Starting point is 00:32:57 That's the oldest they go back. I got to say, you just poured us some little shots of gin to do a taste test of Hendrix and Tangray. I love gin. You know this. But room temp straight gin is going to be nasty as fuck. Everybody take a shot of gin. Which one are we starting with here, Jeff? Which one is which?
Starting point is 00:33:17 That is Hendrix. Wait, this is Hendrix? Yes. My guess, Hendrix is going to taste like your standard British dry gin and Tangray is going to have a little twang to it more juniper delicious Hendrix not even bad
Starting point is 00:33:31 not bad at all even room temp I'm just not in the mood for gin shots but yeah it's pretty weird these aren't full shots these are little
Starting point is 00:33:40 tense shots I just took a little sip light outside haven't eaten dinner taking a warm shot of gin. Life is good. Tang Ray. Tang Ray.
Starting point is 00:33:52 See, it's got that twang. Yeah. I'll tell you what. Are we just... My reaction is... We're just enjoying ourselves, Tim. I'd say Hendrix better for a martini, Tangray better for a Tom Collins. Ah, yes.
Starting point is 00:34:07 Tangray to me tastes like you're already halfway to a... Gin and tonic. Olive juice. Gin and tonic. Yeah. Oh, I said it's a gin and tonic. Better for a gin and tonic. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:17 It tastes like it has the tonic butter bubbled right in there. Mike, you just hit yourself in the face with your microphone. Doof. Tangray, the stank, though, feels very martini-ish to me. I feel like I've probably had more Tangeray martinis than Hendrix. Yeah, I feel like Hendrix is like a fancy kind of top shelf gin, but I didn't come to know it until the last few years,
Starting point is 00:34:40 and now I know that it's like this high-moderate thing. Tangeray, the name of the bottle, I've known that since I was a kid. That's like a rap. Well, I know it through probably Snoop Dogg's or Dre songs or whatever. and a thang of Tangare.
Starting point is 00:34:51 I'll tell you what's really cool is on Depop. Although in the song it's not Tangare, it's Seagram's Gin. Everybody got their cups but they ain't chipped in. Oh, no, no.
Starting point is 00:35:01 What about later on that day somebody showed up with a gang of Tangeray? Something Tangeray. Yeah, but now that I got me some Seagram's Gin. Well, that's a different... Different verse, same song? Anyway, Tim, go ahead.
Starting point is 00:35:13 No, no, no. I was going to say that when I go on Depop late at night trolling for Tabasco shirts, I've seen some very cool Tangeray, like a green, vintage green T-shirt with a Tangerare logo on it. Ooh.
Starting point is 00:35:26 I gotta get back in a Depop. I feel like with the different weather coming up, time to get some shirts, throw them over to the Salvation Army
Starting point is 00:35:34 and say, hey, Depop, I'm back. I'll tell you what's good for you. It's cooling down. Let's say you want to get some, like,
Starting point is 00:35:40 what did I get? Like Molson's ski jacket type of thing? This would be a good blowout. Depop. Whoa, that is a good blowout. Depop. Whoa, that is a good blowout. Yeah. We each give ourselves...
Starting point is 00:35:49 I don't know. $100 out of $100. $100 grand. Yeah. Buy what you can. When was Hendrix... Hendrix has been popular in the last few years, but when was Hendrix invented? I'm looking for a date.
Starting point is 00:36:00 I bet it says 1886. Wow. Oh, that's Hendrix. Well, how did it get all of a sudden popular? It's everywhere. I bet that it got a different distribution. You know, like if Diageo bought it from InBev or something like that. Mike, you just hit a leaf with your head.
Starting point is 00:36:17 Yeah, I got a leaf right behind my head. Why don't you keep your head away from all the objects? I got my head in the basketball around the microphone. I'm hitting that. Really waving that thing around. You know, I'm so tired. I got my head in the basketball around the microphone and hitting that. Really waving that thing around. You know, I'm so tired. I'm very tired today. I played soccer.
Starting point is 00:36:29 Mike, that's not good podcasting. You've got to have the energy. Hey, I'm at... No, but I played soccer this morning with Neil from the podcast. He plays with a group every Sunday and I played with him. How'd you do?
Starting point is 00:36:38 You know, I'm not the best soccer player, but it's a lot of fun, man. Soccer's not the easiest sport, but it's pretty easy to just kind of like get into it and pass the ball around and have some fun oh football i agree football oh don't be that guy nobody likes that guy well hey what would you tweak well take it take a nice drag of that paradise and say i think i tweaked the the you know tim was talking about the quality of the ingredients in my heart of hearts we ended up not using my jeff we used jeff's chocolate can of 50 which i think is watered down oj yeah um you know it's
Starting point is 00:37:19 hard to say what you'd tweak because i don't know the drink you know i'm like my guess is if i had a beautiful dark brown brandy in there that was like the but like apricot what if you had fresh app i don't know brandy gin and some fresh apricot juice instead of OJ. You guys ever say apricot? I pronounce apricot. Wouldn't be caught dead. British people say apricot. Right, right. They also say aluminium.
Starting point is 00:37:51 They also say aircon. What's that? Air conditioner. Ah. They say car park. Hmm. And they also say, good one, US.
Starting point is 00:38:03 You beat us all those years ago. Yes. Those 13 colonies have become 50 beautiful states. They've grown up. We love to see it. No hard feelings. Hey, can I tell you what I would change? Oh, that's why you brought it up, because you just wanted to talk about yourself. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Cubes. This thing needs cubes. Also, if this was just a little taller, dare I say longer, a long drink, then you'd catch me out on the street, out around town drinking a Paradise. That would affect the way I feel about this drink. Like I said before, the dainty glass, I think is like, ooh, what a cocktail. Look at me. Tim, you're right.
Starting point is 00:38:39 It's a nice British stiffy. But you're going the other way. You guys are saying, hey, throw some cubes, make it juicier, and I'll sip it in the sun. I'm saying, brandy? You want to bring the lights down.
Starting point is 00:38:51 You want to turn the fireplace down. He's just distilling it even further down. Brandy, gin, and a splash of fresh apricot juice if such a thing exists.
Starting point is 00:38:58 I don't really get too amped up on apricots. Those dried apricots, fuck them. Oh, I love them. No. Oh, fuck you. I would rather have a Haribo peach ring. Here's the thing with apricots. Those dried apricots. Oh, I love them. No. Oh, fuck you. I would rather have a Haribo peach ring.
Starting point is 00:39:07 Here's the thing with apricots. If I could be an Anglophile for one minute. Sure. Is that the way Franklophile is? Yeah, yeah. You love the English. Anyway. Apricots. I like to get a little bag of apricots or the tub or whatever. However you get them.
Starting point is 00:39:22 I like when they get dried and then you get some of them that are big like puffy ones that are like... Whoa. Yeah, like the dried out ones. Nice and tough. Like a big fat prune, like a big fat yellow prune. The closer they are to those Trader Joe's mango strips, the better. Oh, fruit leathers.
Starting point is 00:39:37 Is that different? Maybe. Hmm. The tough mango things. I don't love a fruit. Hurt your jaw. Rip your teeth out. I don't love a fruit.
Starting point is 00:39:42 The tough mango things I don't love a fruit I don't love a fruit Well it's something I'm okay with As being a full 30 A keto guy telling keto lies Sort of a Tweaked keto Well why don't we take a little break
Starting point is 00:39:56 And when we come back We will deliver our harsh criticism And final adjudication Yes I love it folks i do like see you back here after the ads and we're back with our final thoughts on Paradise. My final thought is I'm getting a little warm around the ears.
Starting point is 00:40:27 That's always nice. And I... My biggest qualm after you just said the name, the name, Paradise. Yeah. This does not fit this drink, I don't think.
Starting point is 00:40:37 Mm-mm. But I like it and I will order again. Wow. What a rollercoaster. Yeah. It doesn't live up to the name. Like, Paradise is a great name for a drink that should be used elsewhere. Yeah. Wow. What a rollercoaster. It doesn't live up to the name. Like, Paradise is a great name for a drink that should be used
Starting point is 00:40:47 elsewhere. Yep. Here's what they should call it. Piccadilly Sackus. Yeah, yeah. Or something... Piccadilly Fizz. Yeah. Even though there's no fizzy thing. That's a good name for something, though. Yeah, Piccadilly Fizz. Maybe that's the next drink you invent. Yeah, Piccadilly. Some gin, I'm thinking.
Starting point is 00:41:04 Something London, yeah. Or Her Majesty. His Majesty. How about blend up gin and some circus peanuts? I used to love circus peanuts. I hate those things. Oh, come on. No.

Starting point is 00:51:08 I didn't know that. Here we go. Number nine. How much better is it? Michael. Fuck. You gave me that one early, Tim. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:22 You gotta keep your mouth shut. Does that point go to Mike or me? It goes to Mike. Oh, no. That one is very, very close because Tim has five points and Mike has four points and a side point. Oh, shoot. No real indication of how many points a side point is worth. Or if one can use them.
Starting point is 00:51:43 I thought they were non-playable points. Yeah use them. I thought they were non-playable points. Yeah. What do you do? What can you do? I'm pretty sure actually they're non-playable points. I'm going to check the sheet. And
Starting point is 00:51:59 it seems that they are playable and a side point is worth one point. One side point equals only one point? It should be like 50. Sometimes they're worth a lot more. Well, let me just check again because anything does go in there. Wait, hold on.
Starting point is 00:52:16 You checked the sheet. You read the sheet. Are you going to read it again to see? Let's call Tim. But Tim, anything goes. Yeah, we know. I'm not worried about Jeff, man. Yeah, I know. Ah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:31 Like, do you want the point or not? I'd love the point. Let's lock it in. What I'm doing is working pretty good. I'm crossing out the side point, which was like Timmy, Greeny, Reany. How did you get that point again? It was... I forget.
Starting point is 00:52:48 It's the thing with a side point. You kind of forget where they come from. You'll have to use that 10 seconds back button, folks, to figure out how Mike got the side point in the first place. But here we are coming in on number 10. Ready? Mm-hmm. Ready? That's what I'm on.
Starting point is 00:53:11 Fuck. Fist Fight Paradise by Timmy St. Rob. Wow. Play the clip. That's right, folks. It's Fist Fight Paradise, an unreleased track by Tim Solo.
Starting point is 00:53:25 That was released on MySpace, wasn't it? Wow. Pretty good. That was like a five track album or six? Yeah. I want to say this is around Christmas 2006. Oh, that was fun. It was a very good album. Did I ever repurpose
Starting point is 00:53:44 this for Sloppy Boys? It's One Last Bender-ish, but I don't think it's the same. That's exciting. That's really good. You know what, Tim? Listeners might be interested to hear that at the end of the episode. That could be good. Folks, it's possible that if you go to MySpace.com and you look up Timmy St. Rock, my Bruce Springsteen-esque alter ego, the whole EP might be up there still.
Starting point is 00:54:08 Oh, shit. Wow. Just adrift like a ghost ship. That's wild. That was fun, the Timmy St. Rock guy. What was that? Yeah, yeah. What was that?
Starting point is 00:54:14 Van Aerts saying? His dating from a... Van Aerts fill out an OKCupid page and just let it go. It's still out there floating like a ghost ship. Well, because he was gonna deactivate it and he's like oh I'll just let it see if it gets any hits and then check back in a year and like nothing
Starting point is 00:54:30 but calling a dating profile a ghost shit is very funny to me like you come across the screen it is funny to think of like how many profiles I've set up for like purchasing stuff like I'd buy something one time and it's like, now I have a vivid seats account.
Starting point is 00:54:49 That's so funny. Then you go on vivid seats, like years later, you're like, you're signing up for one. And it's like, this email already has a profile. You're like,
Starting point is 00:54:57 I forgot the password. Well, Timothy, great job. You've won the paradise. I'm happy. I'm proud.

Maybe it's sort of a specific vision of Harry Craddock's paradise.
