If you get a lot of those things under $20, you could have just said had something that you really liked that was over $20. No, no, no.

Starting point is 00:01:53 Wait, wait. I went in smaller? No, you just brought up the hem shorter. Oh, hem, yes. Hem. I was thinking hem was the waist. Hem's worth. Hem's worth.
Starting point is 00:02:03 These pants are hem's worth. Worth hemming. Yes, worth hemming. That's what Hemsworth means? Yeah. It's like the Hemsworth brothers, they're good guys, they're handsome guys, it's worth hemming their pants.
Starting point is 00:02:18 Yes. They're worthy of it. You don't want them to look like, trip it all over the pants, they could bust their beautiful faces open. No, you could have Thor wearing Jankos. You got to hem them up. Hey, Tim, you're a little quiet compared to the McMahon.

There's a ton of... now i'm just getting into uh plastic eel figurines i'm down so far no there's no eel in eel sauce that's a misnomer we'll get into it when the drink is debuted am i crazy or does it seem like everyone on this podcast wants to talk about their depop purchases or they want to talk about their eel sauce search but no one seems to want to point out that i'm in arizona
Starting point is 00:04:27 it's not our story to tell that's that's true if i want to if i want to talk about how i'm in arizona it's up it's on it's it's up to me to communicate that what i will talk about is i see that just the tip of your shirt there looks like a little tie-dyed something's going on. It's like a Lisa Frank shirt or something. It feels like the tie-dye craze the last five years has gone out of fashion, but this one has stayed in the repertoire here. It's a light blue shirt, but then I got this in the Florida Keys, and the logo is tie-dye, and it's a dolphin, and it says Florida Keys. And here's what's funny. And the logo is tie-dye and it's a dolphin and it says Florida Keys. And here's what's funny.
Starting point is 00:05:08 Good thing about this shirt. It's like a big, it's a big billowy t-shirt. So when I bought it five years ago, I was like, this is funny, it's a big, huge shirt. It's funny. And over the years, I've kind of filled it out. Over the years, you're laughing a little less and less. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Now it fits quite snug, does it not? Ooh. Ooh. I put on the pounds. I took a physical the other day, and I went up 10 pounds. Really? What the hell? It must be all, it's fucking muscle weight, my dude.
Starting point is 00:05:39 You've been pumping. I wish I could say that it was. Between El Paso and my buddies visiting me, I packed it up. Ah, yes. Sure, sure, sure. Every food, a savory treat. Feasting. I've been doing that here in Arizona. I'm staying with my
Starting point is 00:05:53 friend Ben, and before hopping on the pod right now, we already put in our order for the old spaghetti factory for when I'm done. I'd be like, Tessie. Because they got a lot of chain food out here in in the in the in glendale arizona so uh we're we're double we're just eating all the we're like there's a chain that we haven't had but that's good chain that's eating good chain same here's what i liked about
Starting point is 00:06:17 their menu you know italian places it'll be like you choose your pasta and they have a few different shapes of pasta and then a few different sauces and you make your own choice. Here, just spaghetti. It's like, what sauce do you want on your spaghetti? It's the old spaghetti factory. And I thought I was going to be dazzled with angel hair and capolini. No, it's all spaghetti. Any linguine?
Starting point is 00:06:41 No linguine, no linguine. Any linguine? No linguine, no linguine. They had fettuccine Alfredo as a separate dish on a different part of the menu. But who the fuck over five years old eats fettuccine Alfredo? That is some 1999. But kid ass. That is Lipton pasta sides. That is chip dip is sauce now time.
Starting point is 00:07:01 dip is sauce now time. Chicken fettuccine alfredo is for some confused kid that eats it and barfs. Fancy mac and cheese, man. That is a very barfable food for a kid. No. It's the barfable food that puts you in the mood. No. For love.
Starting point is 00:07:22 Listen to this. Spaghetti factory. I told Ben I want spaghetti with meat sauce and i want a caesar salad and i want spumoni and he said tim your spaghetti with meat sauce is gonna come with caesar salad and spumoni free spumoni comes with wow now spumoni is is ice cream. Yes? Yep. Yes, okay. Ben, we all know Ben. He's been on the pod before. No, he hasn't. Oh, yeah, he has.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Well, just like little clips of him. Oh, he and I went to a Wisconsin summer club together, and we reviewed it on Bruce News. Yeah, and then the Patreon listeners will remember him from when I went to a smorgasbord. Damn. Anyway, he introduced me to Jollibee. I mean, I knew what Jollibee was, the restaurant. Right.
Starting point is 00:08:12 But he actually got it. Filipino fast food chain. Yeah. Right. And it's like they have spaghetti with essentially cut up hot dogs in it. And it's a very sweet sauce, right? It's like a macaroni salad sauce. It's interesting, but it's very good.
Starting point is 00:08:25 And I was surprised. I sent him a picture the other day because I was near Times Square and I saw one. And I said, Ben, you're going to love it here. You're going to love it here. They got Elmo. They got this Jollibee thing now. You're going to love this. But I've never seen it outside of L.A. or here.
Starting point is 00:08:40 Folks, we want to know if you've seen Jollibee. Who's got eyes on Jollibee? Hashtag us with, I've seen the bee. No, Blake. I've seen the bee. Just seen it. If you've seen it. Yeah, you don't have to have eaten there. Just that you've seen one, it's in your
Starting point is 00:08:58 town. You know what they got out here that I have never had is I thought it was only a Midwest thing and they have it down here as culver's like culver's butter burger never had gonna have to say and i was really driving out here i was really looking forward to getting some fry bread i told you guys about how good fry bread is when i was in phoenix but there's no fry bread place close to our little airbnb here in glendale so i might have to venture into Phoenix. Dang.
Starting point is 00:09:26 You should try the Arizona iced tea while you're out there. I kind of almost did the other day. I was looking at one of those at a convenience store. It's probably fresher here. It's like having a Guinness in Ireland. They're like, oh, you gotta have it in Ireland. You gotta have the 99 cent can
Starting point is 00:09:42 in Arizona. They've done that thing right where the can is still 99 cents and it says it right on the can and they're losing money on the can. Well, I bet you they're just using shittier ingredients over time to justify. Yes, that's they know what they're doing. Should we talk about the booze news? Yes. Bip, bip, bip, hit it. I'm making a movie.
Starting point is 00:10:03 A real Marvel movie. I rented a camera and a van and a Wolverine I greased the lens and framed the shot using Friend I'm gonna cast me a bunch of celebrities to be my friend At my stand-in I'm renting a camera A real Hollywood camera The marker snaps And I yell quiet on the set
Starting point is 00:10:28 I'm gonna have some lenses to focus Gonna point at what I wanna shoot And then call it action And then call it action Cause I made a movie Do you like the movie? I thought it classic We're gonna have a cocktail and a moxa
Starting point is 00:10:42 A cocktail and a moxa A cocktail and a moxa Nice classic we're gonna have a cocktail and a moxa take a cocktail and a moxa take a cocktail and a nice making a boozy was sent to us by drew paulie and if you have a booze news theme email it to the sloppy boys podcast at gmail.com nice drew that drew i assume that's his or her voice uh no that's that's a death cab right? Okay. Postal Service. Really? Yeah. That's okay.
Starting point is 00:11:08 Because I was going to say he sounds like that person. But... Wait a minute. I thought Postal Service only had Give Up. They have more songs? Wait.
Starting point is 00:11:19 Let me check. Yeah, but that... Yeah, Give Up. That album is called Give Up. Oh, that's the album. What was the main song? Great Heights. Such Great Heights. Yeah, Such Great Heights.
Starting point is 00:11:30 Well, Drew's email says, this one is partially inspired by the Postal Service's 20th Anniversary Reunion Tour. I'm personally looking forward to the Hollywood Bowl show next weekend. So, I don't know, maybe it could be Death Cab, but yeah, same guy. Well, I don't know. Maybe it could be Death Cab, but
Starting point is 00:11:45 yeah. Okay. Well, it's Ben Gibbard either way. Now, Ben Gibbard, did he date? Yes. Did he marry? Who? I don't know. Adeshanel. Who? Adeshanel.
Starting point is 00:12:02 Did they get married? Adeshanel. Gibbard and Deschanel. That would be the ultimate hipster couple of the two of the aughts, you know? Yep. What's this guy's name? Ben Gibbard. Ben Gibbard.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Ben Gibbard. Let's see here. Spouse, Rachel Demme. No. That was 2016, but hold on. let's see here spouse Rachel Demme no that was 2016 but hold on hold on because I think he was married
Starting point is 00:12:34 to Deschanel I think you're right they seem like they were romantically entangled but more importantly when I pickled I picked up pickled I picked up my phone to Google this and I saw a text from mike hanford he said this is right before we were started recording he said just got home got to use the facilities and then i'll hop on oh how'd that go mike i've never heard anyone say they're going to use the facilities since i was in kindergarten and the
Starting point is 00:12:58 teacher was saying that the facility i think of it i think it was like a uh somebody who works in like a hot an older guy who works in a hockey rink. He's like, hold on, I got to use the facility. But I also picture you going into a public bathroom and you're like unscrewing the pipes and you're blasting water. You're just really getting into it. You're spinning a big wheel that's loosening up the change in the temperature of the water. I'm still looking for this fucking... Go ahead, Zoe.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Well, she dumped him for a property, brother. It's fine. You don't got to worry about him anymore. Okay, Zoe Deschanel and Ben Gibbard were 500 days of summer come to life. That's something I'm reading here, but I... If you say so. But yes, I think they were together,
Starting point is 00:13:40 and now they're not, and he's... Sad when that happens. Look, the important thing is I like Postal Service, but I can't do Death Cab. Isn't that weird? That is weird. Now, what's Death Cab's big song? That's his indie band.
Starting point is 00:13:52 You've heard them. I know, but I can't think of what their main band is. Where soul meets body. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Ugh, I don't know that. It's actually better the way I sing it. It's actually really good. Is that of transatlanticism?
Starting point is 00:14:05 I think that's the only one I would have ever given a spin to. I'm not a fan of Death Cab, but then, yeah, I got to give it up for I am thinking that it's a sign. The freckles in our eyes. It's the most precious thing in the world, but if you put yourself back into that year and imagine that being a fresh sound,
Starting point is 00:14:26 it's pretty interesting. Pretty interesting stuff. Yeah. I like that the music is very cold and then he had like whiny emo lyrics. Like it's a good juxtaposition. Yeah. Do you think that the freckles in their eyes aligning
Starting point is 00:14:39 was a sign? Yes. That their mirror images were perfectly aligned? Yeah. Yeah. Yes. Yeah yeah i kind of he said it i wouldn't think he's fibbing um can we get to the fucking booze news for once in my whole life i wish you would oh i thought this was death cab news that's coming later Imagine if this didn't even scratch the surface of Death Cab News. Okay, so we are going to be, when we get to the drink of the day, we're going to be making a drink that includes green chartreuse. Are we not? We are.
Starting point is 00:15:18 God, I wonder if the people out there have it. It's tough to come by. That's why I wanted to use this booze news to check in on the current status of the chartreuse shortage because this came up on i feel like mike you had like maybe heard about this out in the wild first from a liquor store guy or something and then and then there were articles and we covered in booze news about a year ago um that chartreuse is well first off this is a fancy liqueur made by carthusian monks in france there's only two monks that uh really know the whole recipe and they're like vow of silence monks and they work silently at their monastery making this booze and there's a three-hour documentary about them
Starting point is 00:16:05 that is silent and only lit with natural light. And we got to watch it for our Patreon sometime when we're looking to hemorrhage subscribers. Patreon calls us up. They're like, you got to boot some of these guys off the server. What can you do? Patreon themselves are like, we're too low.
Starting point is 00:16:23 We're getting too low. About a year ago, we started hearing about this charcuterie shortage it was hard to find at liquor stores and we thought maybe it was just a typical supply chain issue like lots of post covid supply then we thought maybe it was about the bottling or whatever but no eventually in the spring new york times wrote a big piece saying it's about the work ethic of these monks basically with with fancy cocktails having a big moment right now more people making cocktails that use these types of liqueurs there's a larger demand for chartreuse than there has been and these monks simply don't want to work, meet the supply. They're like, hey, we pray. We hang around.
Starting point is 00:17:10 We make the amount of this stuff that we make. We're not capitalists. We're not following the typical business plan that, you know, like most business models say you expand, expand, expand. And they're like, no, we just, we're living the way we live and we're working how hard we work. And that's that. Living la vida loca. I love it. I got to appreciate him for it.
Starting point is 00:17:28 I mean, that is why it's like, well, the chartreuse is just kind of our hobby. Our main thing is being God. We're men of God. We're not booze makers. Yeah. This is kind of going against what we. Well, then don't make such good booze. Well, you know.
Starting point is 00:17:42 And also this liqueur has like 40 weird ingredients it's made from all these flower petals and weird stuff it's seems like it would be an ordeal for them to like double their hey it tastes just like black licorice but yeah i i gotta take their word for it it's got all that other shit there's a lot of different ways to make good and plenty out there and they found the most laborious it turns out half the herbs and flowers on this planet taste like good and bloody. If you're out in nature and you see an herb or a flower, just assume it tastes like black licorice. Don't bother chomping on it.
Starting point is 00:18:14 So we had talked about this in Booze News in the spring, and I had heard that the shortage continued, and I just did a Google Now, and I found another wave of articles uh addressing this issue and guess what's happening now the monks true to their word have not stepped it up the the shortage has continued and now within the last week there's been a wave of articles about you know now there's just other people making alternatives there's like copycat companies distilleries that are making their version of yellow and green chartreuse there's a copycat companies distilleries that are making their version of
Starting point is 00:18:45 yellow and green chartreuse there's a lot of articles about like here are the top five swaps for chartreuse and here are the new companies that are making this chartreuse type thing and the monks are cool with it the monks don't care and that's what's happening so if you google that there's like a whole bunch of articles but like if you saw today's podcast and you said i can't find chartreuse there's like american companies cranking out chartreuse as copycat things now so you could you could probably find something similar apparently i think in in the u.s they call it chartreuse yeah chartreuse chartreuse uh i gotta hand it to the monks for not giving a fuck and here's the thing that American business could learn
Starting point is 00:19:26 oh they give a fuck Jeff just not about the things that these capitalist corporate pigs care about oh shit what do we think about corporate shit Mike what do you think about corporate shit I'm back off those things man I'm back off it I used to be so gung ho corporate shit you're back off it
Starting point is 00:19:42 you were on it for a minute for a minute I was like this. I was like, this is good. This is how I get a lot of my... You tell us. I think I mentioned it. This is good. This is some really... I guess I'm the one who's waiting on my old spaghetti factory delivery, so I'm back on
Starting point is 00:19:54 it. And you're off it. I'm off it. I'm getting stuff off Depop, reuse, recycle. Let's do that. Carbon footprint. But here's the thing. No matter how many competitors, quote unquote, that they have nipping at their heels, they're
Starting point is 00:20:07 always going to be in demand because they're the real deal. Yeah. Yeah, dude. They have it. You don't have to go after them. People are going to want your shit. You're the best one. You think Rolex is like, oh no, Timex is selling more watches.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Nobody gives a fuck. Look what we want with the Rolex, baby. Yeah, we all want Rolexes. That's what we want. Keep rolling, rolling, Yeah, we all want Rolexes. That's what we want. Keep rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, X. I walked by like a Rolex store recently, or I saw a Rolex or something, and I was like, how much would
Starting point is 00:20:33 one of those cost? Thinking like, oh, expensive watch is probably $700. They're like $15,000 at the cheapest. I was like, good lord. Crazy. What are you guys rocking for timepieces these days? My phone. And the sun.
Starting point is 00:20:49 Folex. Yeah, my phone. I'll tell you what, though. I've been thinking about getting an old school alarm clock for my bedside. Oh, that would be fun. That way you're not scrolling all night. Jacking off. You got to get the alarm clock app. You gotta get the alarm clock app.
Starting point is 00:21:06 Yeah, get the alarm clock app. That's a good idea, Jeff. I got an old school one that has hands on it and you have a bell that rings. You use it? No, I did for a few days. I was like, this sucks. I imagine the real bell is
Starting point is 00:21:21 insanely loud. Yeah, it's just like, that's a terrible... I mean, any sound is insanely loud Yeah it's just like that's a terrible I mean any sound is terrible To wake up to Somebody at work has on their phone An alarm that goes off throughout the day To remind them about stuff That's my alarm clock My alarm on my phone noise
Starting point is 00:21:37 And every time I hear it I say would you turn it off Did I ever tell you guys a story Okay You know our buddy Chris Van Arts Dalen Oh yes heavy sleeper heavy sleeper tough time getting him up in the morning but he's figured it out he's adopted certain tools to get up in the morning one day we're all in the old um in the old stink house where we all lived the birthday boy's house birthday boy's house. Birthday boy's house. He leaves for the weekend.
Starting point is 00:22:07 And he said, Jeff, you can use my room if you want. Folks, don't worry about the circumstances for this. My girlfriend and I, girlfriend at the time, stayed in Chris's room. Ooh, a little vacation. Sort of a little vacation in the home. Shay Chris.
Starting point is 00:22:23 Shay Chris. I said, right this way. Don't mind the smell. Don't mind the spaghetti coming out of the bathtub. Oh, yeah. Yeah, one time the spaghetti came out of his bathtub. Pipes got crossed or something. Look, sometimes you're hard up for privacy in a big dude house. So we have Shay Casa de Chris.
Starting point is 00:22:44 So we're staying in there and uh late at night i'm sleeping like a baby yeah all of a sudden i am awoken in such a start i thought the fucking basement was like had a poltergeist there was a loud noise i'd never heard before the lights were flashing and the fucking bed is shaking it was like yep and uh i realized this is chris's like crazy alarm clock yeah he plugs his light into the alarm clock so that it flashes and he has a vibrating little pad that he put under his side of the mattress yeah to wake him up And because he'd left for town, he'd set his alarm for like four in the morning. Insane.
Starting point is 00:23:30 Yeah. That would freak you the fuck out. It's like poltergeist. Yeah. It was batshit crazy. I remember being like upstairs and hearing it and like walking down
Starting point is 00:23:41 and walking to his room and just seeing the bed like going nuts. I was like, Chris, I had that experience too. My room was right across the hall downstairs. And I remember he's such a heavy sleeper and he got those, uh, little gadgets and stuff after a sleep study. And he slept so hard that I would hear this flashing,
Starting point is 00:24:00 like the tick, tick, tick of a flashing light and the of a vibrating mattress it would wake me up i'd walk across the hall and be like hey chris wake up and he was still sleeping through it this is crazy i wish how did you guys know about this and i had not known i tried to tell you you didn't care all you cared about was your girlfriend oh i love her and nothing else you don't love talking to your boys No I care for love You don't care about your boys wake up methods
Starting point is 00:24:28 You don't care about your boys Talking about their other boys wake up methods Your boy needs to tell you about your boys Yeah well I only care about Romantic love that's hetero I don't think this is a weird story Tell us about Chris's dad, I guess. So Chris told me that his dad had this same problem in college.
Starting point is 00:24:52 He was just a super heavy sleeper and just couldn't get up in the morning. He would have a really loud alarm clock go off in his room in a cage. And the key to the cage was in another person's room down the hall, so he'd have to get up, go get the key, unlock the cage to turn off his alarm clock, which would get him on his feet and then hopefully move him.
Starting point is 00:25:14 But yeah, that's an extreme... Hereditary. That's an extreme case, yeah. Freaky. The sins of the father are passed to the son. Sins. Is that it for Booze News? Yeah, is that shit?
Starting point is 00:25:28 Wrap it up! What is that? Is that... It's Mario 2. It's the slot machine. The slot machine, yes. But Mike, that's in the past. Yes, let's move forward. Sure, that was Doki Mike, that's in the past. Yes, let's move forward.
Starting point is 00:25:46 Sure, that was Doki Doki Panic in the past. Now we're moving forward to the new... Doki Doki Panic. Deep cut, Mike. That was the original Japanese game that Mario 2 is based on. But I don't want to know about that. That's the past. You want the future.
Starting point is 00:26:05 Well, I think it's clear in the eyes of all of us that the future is none other than the Tipperary you've had. Tipperary. Who never had, never heard. Get thee to the Tipperary. Let me see this. Let me see this
Starting point is 00:26:20 recipe. I don't want to have a bad attitude about this, Tim. I'm not excited for this one. There's nothing here to juice me. I'm curious about this one. I don't want to have a bad attitude about this, Tim. I'm not excited for this one. There's nothing here to juice me. I'm curious about this one. Based on what the ingredients list or the name. Tipperary. Tipperary. I hope Tipperary is explained. I don't know what that means. Well, maybe when I
Starting point is 00:26:35 paint you a picture of the history, you'll your ears will your ears will perk up. Maybe. Or maybe not. Maybe it's a quite boring drink indeed. That's what's so cool about this show. You never know when it's going to be
Starting point is 00:26:49 a completely bad episode or not. Sure. And you can have a great episode with a bad drink or a bad episode with a great drink. Yeah. You could have three bad hosts, a bad drink, no funny jokes,
Starting point is 00:27:02 no good conversation. It was still a good episode. But great ads. Yes i got i got something we talked about some great stuff on the blowout this week oh yeah yes that's the real show that's where a lot of patreon.com slash the sloppy boys pay five dollars a month you can hear podcasts that are illuminating you can jump on there's still time to jump onto zabba booba buff aka zombie movie month aka it's funny okay back to the drink of the day the tipperary no one has heard no one has had um this is an old drink that first popped up in hugo eslin's ensil hugo enslin's book, Recipes for Mixed Drinks in 1916. So I guess you could say four years after the Titanic.
Starting point is 00:27:50 Okay, so here's the scoop on this guy according to Cocktail King. How many years after the Titanic? Four years after the sinking of the Titanic. Now, if you're talking Lusitania, I want say that was what 1919 i want to say 15 i just read the book 1519 i'll look it up while you continue talking and i'll yell it out no you gotta pay attention this is the main thing i am i got the recipe right here I'm looking up the Lusitania sinking. That's all. I'm looking up all types of crazy shit. 1915, the Lusitania went down off the coast of Liverpool.
Starting point is 00:28:33 Beautiful, Mike. Beautiful. Liverpool. No, not beautiful, Tim. It was horrible. Sad. Beautiful knowledge of a sad sinking. I'm with you.
Starting point is 00:28:44 I'm with you. Would you agree? Would you not agree? Tim tim i can't wait to hear about this drink wow me oh fuck this is what jeff likes to say when he's visiting a new town he goes up the locals hey spare no expense wow me knock my socks on take me out okay so this was kind of a dry thing so i just i was trying to find an angle in so i went to uh this all i all we knew is that it popped up in this book at that year and it was this guy then go to cocktailkingdom.com and i and i read this blurb hugo enslin was an obscure bartender in a second tier New York hotel, but he left behind recipes for mixed drinks. The last major cocktail book prior to prohibition,
Starting point is 00:29:34 his book was packed with dozens of new drinks and then later widely plagiarized by Harry Craddock and Patrick Gavin Duffy. Enslin apparently committed suicide over unrequited love in 1929. He is buried in the Gates of Heaven Cemetery in Hawthorne, New York. 1929, everyone's killing themselves over this stock market crash.
Starting point is 00:29:56 He did it for unrequited love. Wow. For his stocks? That's not funny. That's not funny. For his stock prices. No, I shouldn't joke around about a suicide. That's not funny. That's not funny. For his stock prices and then the email. No, that's...
Starting point is 00:30:07 I shouldn't joke around about a suicide. Mike, for that... It was a hundred years ago. You got to visit his grave. Yeah. Yeah, Mike, go. It's Gates of Heaven Cemetery in Hawthorne. I'll do that.
Starting point is 00:30:17 Where is Hawthorne? You're asking the wrong guys. Hawthorne, California is South Bay. Okay, let's stop talking about shit. He's got to look up and stay on task. No, just keep talking. Stop. Okay.
Starting point is 00:30:28 So. Jeff, why do you hate the past so much? I'm a future man. Wow. You're really into the future, which is the temporary. Jeff's so into futurism. It's for the next 20 minutes is the future. You're like in an Oculus, like drinking a Tipperary.
Starting point is 00:30:48 A drink I probably don't like, but continue to. So I'm thinking about this drink. I got this history on this guy. And then the drink, it's kind of a take on the Bijou, which is gin vermouth chartreuse, which itself is very similar to the Negroni gin vermouth Campari. And of course our beloved Boulevardier whiskey. Oh,
Starting point is 00:31:11 so the thing, these are all similar drinks and a lot of them, the, the, they were equal parts drinks. Um, but the thing they all have in common to the, to the keen eye is vermouth,
Starting point is 00:31:23 right? So basically you got this whole scene of dudes a hundred years ago trying really hard to make vermouth happen much like how the characters in mean girls try to make fetch happen yeah um and so i i was like tipper what's this word temporary i mean i looked it up it's a place it's a county in ireland and then i was like oh okay maybe it's this like irish drink and maybe hugo enslin was irish no it appears i looked up the the the etymology of his name seems like he's probably a german guy who's in new york so i think that the the name tipperary just comes from the fact that he was using irish whiskey in his vermouth cocktail so um and then i i there's
Starting point is 00:32:09 there's a very famous bar in manhattan called the dead rabbit that's like an irish pub they make irish coffee and i've been mike you've been uh it seems like a place jack shram would take you did you have the irish coffee when you went did you have the temporary i didn't go with shram but i've been there and i was i didn't know i i think i had a i forget a temporary? I didn't go to SRAM, but I've been there and I was, I didn't know. I think I had a, I forget what I had. I didn't have my usual martini,
Starting point is 00:32:29 but it's a cool bar. The upstairs bar I like better than the downstairs. And I was shocked to learn that it was, it was only like open in like 2016. Yeah. It's like, it's a, it's a part of the sort of the sort of yeah 2000s cocktail boom i actually read
Starting point is 00:32:48 on the website there's kind of a very douchey history of the place like uh it's got kind of like a little bit of a hey we're cool they seem like great bartenders seems like a great bar but it's got a little bit of a hard edge to it that um i was like okay whatever but the owner of the bar is very knowledgeable i listened to an whatever but the owner of the bar is very knowledgeable i listened to an episode of the podcast cocktail college where he is talking about the tipperary because he they make the tipperary at the dead rabbit and he kind of confirmed my suspicion that it's it's about these vermouth cocktails and that that is like a lot of bartenders of this era of just coming up with things to mix with vermouth.
Starting point is 00:33:25 So really, I think that that's what we're looking at, whether it's the Negroni or the Bijou or the Boulevardier or this Tipperary. Yeah. It's vermouth. Sweet red vermouth is a drink that only an old Italian guy would ever drink straight. But because it's on our shelves you got a lot of hard-working bartenders busting their asses to use it in stuff and that's what the tipperary is is just a drink that happens to use a delicious hard to find liqueur green chartreuse and is called the tipperary because it uses irish whiskey in your sweet red vermouth well tim i'm looking at i'm
Starting point is 00:34:02 looking at our beloved manhattan and it doesn't look too dissimilar from that either. Oh, I see that. Absolutely. Rye, red vermouth, and Angostura. So you're switching out the whiskey for Irish, and then you're adding that chartreuse. Yes. And one thing that the Manhattan has in common with the Tipperary
Starting point is 00:34:20 is they're both official international bartenders association cocktails so we're going to be using the iba we're not using uh hugo enslin's original equal parts recipe this one has been tweaked a little bit by the iba and this is the the common recipe um it is 50 milliliters irish whiskey oh bush mills most commonly is bush milliliters Irish whiskey. Ooh, Bushmills most commonly is Bushmill, like 10 year single malt, blah, blah, blah. When I hear Irish whiskey, I always think of Jameson, but when I went to Albertsons, I got proper. Oh, nice.
Starting point is 00:34:56 I got Tullamore Dew. Ooh, very nice. I think I have some Jamesons around here. 25 milliliters sweet red vermouth. I've got Martini and rossi. Dolan. Wally Pratt. 15 milliliters green chartreuse.
Starting point is 00:35:11 I happen to have half a nip left from some other drink we did. You guys have it? Oh, nice. Yeah, I've got... I'm looking at it now across the room. It looks kind of yellowish or green. The label is green, so I'm assuming it's Green Shark. Yeah, that's it.
Starting point is 00:35:25 Yeah, it is? Okay. I got it. I got like a full bottle of it over here. When I got it, the guy said, Lucky boy, and he patted me on the ass on the way out. On the ass? What the hell?
Starting point is 00:35:35 What the hell? When I got mine, the guy put his thumb up my butt. What the hell? You can't do that. He did that rude thing where he smelled his thumb And went, eww What do you think's gonna smell like that? Fuck, dude
Starting point is 00:35:50 You know what I'd do with that thing, dude What do you think, man? Dude, cool it, my crush is here What scenario is all this happening? At the liquor store Dude, my crush came to buy Some Zinfandel. Yes, that's what crushes
Starting point is 00:36:10 buy. And finally, two dashes of Angostura bitters. You know it. I love it. Here's the method. Pour all ingredients into a mixing glass with ice cubes. Not a shaker. Stir well. Strain into a chilled martini cocktail glass.
Starting point is 00:36:27 Garnish with a slice of orange. Damn, I forgot the orange. I got it. Ooh, no shaking. Bomber. Usually, shaking always happens when there's citrus. So yeah, I guess much like a martini or a Manhattan, this is a stir job.
Starting point is 00:36:46 But you know, Negronis, I just build them right in the cup. They don't want to wake it up. They want all the liquor to stay asleep. And it probably has something to do with, you know, some viscosity or something. And they don't want to bruise? They don't want to bruise something? Yeah, they don't want to bruise.
Starting point is 00:37:05 All right. Shall we? Yeah. Why don't we go make these truths? Wait, can I say something about the Dead Rabbit real quick? Yeah. The reason I thought it was like an old, really old bar was because, you know that movie Gangs in New York?
Starting point is 00:37:15 One of the gangs is called the Dead Rabbits. Oh, shit. That's cool. Well, that's just me being dumb, being like, hey, I thought this bar was older. Hey. Oh. Well, anyway anyway I'll have a chartreuse well knowing Scorsese there was probably a real gang that the bar is named after I think so there you go
Starting point is 00:37:33 there you go folks we'll be right back now we're back with tipperary tipperary is in hand get thee to the mine didn't yield much yeah i got a small yield not a great yield but good because good because you can swing your martini glass around a little bit. Now, I poured a taste of mine for Ben. And they had these little tiny little pedestal like port glasses. I poured him one. He took a sip. He said it was pleasant.
Starting point is 00:38:20 He's not a cocktail guy. And he said it was a pleasant drink. And he said it tasted like an old drink. And that's something that was, he grew on him. And he said it was something that you could drink. You know, you drink it not to get fucked up, but you're enjoying it. He kind of liked the drink. So that bodes well.
Starting point is 00:38:35 A non-cocktail drinker liking the drink. Oh, Ben's a non-cock? Huh. Shall we? Yeah, yeah. I'm just getting swayed by the smell over here. Oh, I'm getting, for only putting half an ounce of chartreuse in there, I'm smelling a lot of chartreuse. Sure. I put a little orange twist in there, Tim. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:58 I did have one. I'm like 10 weeks in a row forgetting the garnishes. You got to express it. Sip. Ooh. Okay. Ooh. Okay. Yes. Fanciness.
Starting point is 00:39:10 That warms the cold cockles of my heart on this crisp autumn night. Shall we say fancy Manhattan? More than Negroni or Boulevardier or anything. This tastes like a fancy Manhattan. Yeah, we shall. It's smooth though, isn't it? It's turning you Irish. Ooh, guys, I came in with a bad attitude.
Starting point is 00:39:33 This kind of turned me around. I did, too. I will say, I think my vermouth might be a little old, because there's one part of the taste here that I'm like, ooh, that just tastes like an old something. One of you is fucking this up. Yeah. Because vermouth you got to take care of.
Starting point is 00:39:50 Right. Keep it fresh. I mean, mine's been in the fridge for a while, but we've had it for a long time. Like the last time we did the red vermouth was a long time ago. Keep it in that fridge three months. Really? I did Nuali Pratt right off the dusty shelf. Oh, nasty Jefferson.
Starting point is 00:40:10 That's good. This funny drink, this drink just tastes very fancy to me, and it's funny because I just, while I was making it, I was kind of taking a bite of a leftover McDonald's cheeseburger and fries, and then it's funny to follow it up with the tipper-duddy.
Starting point is 00:40:24 Sort of a snobs meet slobs thing. I had some McDonald's the other night. I was going home in an Uber or Lyft. I was going ham in an Uber. I said, now what does that mean, going ham in an Uber? You were going home. He was going ham. No, I know, but what were you doing?
Starting point is 00:40:46 John Hamm. Going ham in an Uber. I were going home. He was going ham. No, I know, but what were you doing going ham in an Uber? I see. You were taking John. Mike, did you drive through McDonald's in an Uber? Is that what you're getting at? That's what I'm trying to get at, and I said to the driver, I said, hey,
Starting point is 00:40:54 if you want to stop, I can pick you up something, and he just said, yeah, just add it to your stopping order, but he didn't want anything. They never do. He didn't want anything. We did. Jeff, were you recently
Starting point is 00:41:08 with me when we went through Taco Bell? And the guy had it ready to go. We were like, hey, is it cool if we drive through Taco Bell? And he's like, yeah, no problem. And we're like, can we get you anything? And he's like, I'd love a large Baja Blast. And I was like, oh, he knows. He's a Taco Bell guy. I do remember that now you mention that. And he wanted a little
Starting point is 00:41:24 goose for his night. You know, a little goose for the gander. I put the extra stop in, but I hope it like, I hope he was still getting paid. Like, I didn't look at how much the ride was, but I hope he was not like, as we were waiting for the... Yeah, no, when you're sitting, there's still time happening as miles or not. Okay, good. So he probably went after, he probably went to a nicer restaurant.
Starting point is 00:41:47 He probably went to Shake Shack with the money he made off me. If I were an Uber driver and someone said, Hey, Tim, we'll get your meal. You know what I'd be doing? Fucking 55 burgers, 55 nuggets, 55. Thank you. That always makes me laugh. I mean, it's such a funny sketch, but it always makes me laugh when I see where it comes up. Like I'll see a t-shirt for sale or something. I'm like, what is it? Oh, it's the thing.
Starting point is 00:42:13 Oh, oh yeah. Got me. Um, I have one minor detail. This is a sketch from, uh, I think you should leave season three, by the way. Uh, one thing I love a minor detail in that sketch is he's on his way to alcohol class. He's like, I just want to stop and get something on the way to alcohol. And also the way it ends, he's stuck in the car. He's like, oh, I could run.
Starting point is 00:42:34 And he gets out and runs. And it's just like a happy ending to the sketch that he runs away without his car. Damn, this is good. Yeah, I like it. It's not like the sips I'm taking are like the smallest of sips. Oh, yes. Usually I'll get a nice mouthful of something.
Starting point is 00:42:53 Usually you do a keg stand type thing. You go upside down and I pour your Tipperary into your mouth. The Tipperary is Tipperary. Now, wait a minute. Why is this a new era drink? No. Is it not? I thought I saw on the IPA.
Starting point is 00:43:11 This has got to be unforgettable. No, because people forgot it, right? It's from 1916. That's what I'm thinking. I'm looking it up. I mean, Mike, you thought the Dead Rabbit was an old pub. You think temporary is a new era drink. You're all out of whack chronologically.
Starting point is 00:43:30 Yeah, I'm fucked here. You think old things are new. You think new things are old. That's about what I'm seeing. You got Benjamin Button brain. It says, well, here's what it says on the page for Tipperary, IBA cocktail, new era drinks, uncategorized. So now I got to see what uncategorized means.
Starting point is 00:43:50 Maybe Dead Rabbit brought it back into style. Yeah, Tipperary, it's in the new era column. So Dead Rabbit brought it back from the dead. All right. I'm down with it. It's very good. I'm drinking it, and I'm remarkably tasting a lot of chartreuse. And it's making me, it's reminding me of Fernet.
Starting point is 00:44:11 Jeff, you've been ordering a lot of Fernet and Cokes out of bars. I sure have, too. Fernanditos. And every time I take a sip of a Fernandito, I say, good God, that Coke barely diluted the Fernet. The Fernet is like strong, you know?et is like strong. It's like ink. It's like ink. It's like blood in a pool. It doesn't take a lot of
Starting point is 00:44:30 red to freak everybody out. Yeah, or brown. We did it twice today, Jeff. We are on. We are locked in. But Mike, that's nasty stuff. You're swimming around with a turd? That's nasty. I'm swimming in a pool. A turd's passing me by. that's nasty stuff. Yeah, that's... You're swimming around with a turd? That's nasty. You're swimming around with a turd?
Starting point is 00:44:46 I'm swimming in a pool. A turd's passing me by. That's nasty stuff. I got chlorine in my eyes. I can't open my eyes. I'm reaching for a pool noodle. It's a turd in the pool. I'm thinking, why is this pool noodle so small?
Starting point is 00:45:00 I'm grabbing it with both my hands, squeezing it. This is one of the smallest pool noodles I've ever felt. It's a turd. Probably definitely the stinkiest flotation device I've ever come across. And I say, hey, lifeguard, why is this pool noodle breaking apart in my hands as I squeeze it? Why does it have certain kernels of corn in it? You have a lot of explaining to do. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:26 All this with your eyes still closed, talking to the lifeguard. And another thing while I have my eyes closed. And I know you want to talk to all the moms today bringing their kids to the pool, but you know what? You got to help me, an older gentleman who's clinging to a turd.
Starting point is 00:45:43 Who's grabbing one of his own turds. A turd. a turd. Who's grabbing one of his own turds. A turd. A turd. Oh, Lord. Oof. Hey, let me ask you this. Yeah, fire away.
Starting point is 00:46:02 I mentioned that I'm in Arizona, right? Ah, the zona. I was on a walk today, and I walked past a taco stand. I wasn't even hungry, but I poked in there just to say, oh, there's a taco place nearby. Better check it out. And I look, and they have a California burrito and an Arizona burrito. And we know the California burrito has French fries, guacamole, sour cream. Yes, wait, I had Arizona at the place in San Diego,
Starting point is 00:46:24 and I forget what the thing is. Can I guess? Can I guess? Yes. Tots. Close, yes, to potatoes but not fries. Different form. She said it's, and I was like, we're talking like home fries? She was like, it's like a cubed potato.
Starting point is 00:46:40 Now, Jeff, that's not far off from a tot. So it's like a cubed potato, like a breakfast potato, maybe. I would say, but I said home fries and she said no. Oh, okay. I was going to say mashed potatoes in a burrito would be good, but I don't think it would be. No, it would be fucking nasty. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:02 I don't know. Like a Thanksgiving burrito. Has anyone ever made one of those? A gobbler burrito? Yeah, like a gobbler, but in a tortilla. They did, and they didn't like it. Oh. Word came down.
Starting point is 00:47:17 They didn't like it. Yeah. Have you guys ever been to Dos Toros? It's like a fast food Mexican place. No. It's like bur fast food Mexican place? No. It's like burritos and tacos and stuff. Kind of like Chipotle. Two bowls. Yeah, and I had one the other day. It was good, but
Starting point is 00:47:32 it was like lunch rush hour. You know, where it's just like everyone is the line is huge, but it takes it's very quick. Rush, rush, rush. The rat race. Thank you. I said, slow down, guys. You're not even chewing your food uh it was like it was like you know you go down the line and they like do you want uh what type of meat and
Starting point is 00:47:53 they scoop it on what type of topic i was never the whole line i was never sure which burrito was mine that they were referring to because the yeah the carnitas didn't look like what i thought carnitas looked like. Right. Or I was thinking of something else. So the whole time I'm like, uh, cheese. And then he put it on the burrito and he's like, okay, it seems like that's fine. And I didn't know.
Starting point is 00:48:17 And I started telling one guy, I started telling one guy and he was passing it down. He's like, no, now her. And I was like, well, I don't know. When do you stop and she begins? Hanny, you're a stand-up comedian. We all know that Sebastian Maniscalco spun his experiences at Chipotle into a famous
Starting point is 00:48:33 bit. Do you think that maybe you're gonna be, hey, who here knows Dos Toros? With the cheese. With the cheese. Who here knows Del Toro. Dos Del Toro's cheering. With the cheese.
Starting point is 00:48:51 Oh, man. I did think, did you ever see that MTV, what is it, movie awards or something? Oh, yeah. That Maniscalco hosted. Oh, my God. I did laugh out loud when he came out. Yes, that's a good joke. He comes out with all the fog blasting,
Starting point is 00:49:06 takes the stage for the first time, and he's like, sorry, my mom's frying up zucchini back there. That was the best. He's the most uncool. He's like, hey, you're performing for Gen Z. What's your first joke going to be? Fried zucchini?
Starting point is 00:49:19 That's great. That is funny. That's great. He'll shock you. I mean, Mike, we watched his last stand-up special and we were like three huge belly laughs and the rest of the time you're sort of befuddled and you're like this man's observations are insane and this guy's dancing around the stage but there was a i feel like we may be talking about the pod before but we love the joke where he's talking about like, he's like,
Starting point is 00:49:45 you know, I always know what I want to get, uh, at the restaurant. My wife takes a long time to order. So sometimes she asked me to order first, but I'm not, it's not going to buy you any time.
Starting point is 00:49:54 Cause she's like, you go first. And I'm like, skirt steak with veggies back to you. He does like a bowling move too, but we were fully, you know, we were like, I hate watching this special. He does like a bowling move too. But we were fully, you know, we were like, hate watching this special. And then that made us sincerely laugh very hard.
Starting point is 00:50:13 And you're like, I don't know what to make of this guy. You know? I am. Anytime I see him on something, I'm intrigued. And he's very unique. And I am interested. He's an entertainer. He's a full on entertaining guy.
Starting point is 00:50:28 Like big. We should be doing it on the pod. Oh, big, big. Wow. One of you mentioned a Thanksgiving burrito and then I mentioned a gobbler and then it reminded me of that. Is that something you're familiar with? A gobbler sandwich? It's like a turkey stuffing cranberry sandwich.
Starting point is 00:50:45 I hadn't heard of it. Mitch was the first time I heard of it. Yeah, Mitch in LA. Yeah, because that's what I was going to say. It was like in early birthday boys house type days when I barely knew Mitch and was still figuring. This is Mitch the actor from The Tomorrow War. You were still figuring him out? Well, the first time I met him.
Starting point is 00:51:02 What makes this guy tick? I didn't know him in college but he knew of me because i was a big man on campus and then the first time i met him was in la he slept over at our house after a party woke up in the morning and was telling us that he was living in charlie chaplin's haunted house or something like that yeah yeah his old house or something so i was like this guy's kind of odd and then like the my next experience with him was we were in the house and one of you guys was like hey i'm gonna go down to the bottom of the hill to the sub shop and get sandwiches what do
Starting point is 00:51:29 you guys want and it's like i'll have an italian combo i'll have a turkey or whatever and mitch goes i'll just have a gobla and we're like what it's like a gobla and we're like what the fuck are you talking about and to him a roast turkey stuffing cranberry sandwich is so common that he just could say, yeah, I'll just assume that. Yeah, like that's not ever on the menu anywhere in LA. Anywhere. I've never seen it anywhere. Nope.
Starting point is 00:51:58 Yeah, I'll just have a gobbler. I've not witnessed it. Maybe it's a Massachusetts thing. I don't know. I've started to see them pop around. Yeah? Well, you know, I mean, sandwich places are getting so cavalier now
Starting point is 00:52:11 with TikTok, you know, TikTok. I mean, yeah, with TikTok. Or Fat Sal's. I mean, that doesn't count. Fat Sal's is extreme. But I feel like I've come across at least a turkey, cranberry, blue cheese type thing. I don't know about stuffing.
Starting point is 00:52:25 Oh, blue cheese. That sounds nice with the cranberry. Blue cheese. Yeah, I wouldn't cranberry blue cheese type thing i don't know about stuffing oh blue cheese that sounds nice with the cranberry cheese yeah i wouldn't normally associate blue cheese with a thanksgiving but hey on a sandwich i had blue cheese chips recently come on i was at say cheese the cheese shop and did i already talk about this somebody else went to a fancy cheese shop was that just you again it was probably me maybe i told you i went to a fancy cheese shop. Was that just you again? It was probably me. Maybe I told you off-pod. Did we talk about this? I went to a fancy... No, it was on-pod.
Starting point is 00:52:49 I was talking about it too, because I talked about getting free samples from the cheese place. Fuck my life. So I talked about the caviar chips and the foie gras chips and the Prosecco chips that bubble on your tongue.
Starting point is 00:52:59 Yeah, you did. You did. You did. Fuck my life. Is this what... We hit our 300th episode a couple weeks ago, and now we're just- Last week. So I only had 300 hours of things to say, and now I'm starting over with the same 300
Starting point is 00:53:15 hours again? And you've only had like six experiences since the last week? It's not 300. It's 156 because it's three years. Okay. That's not so bad. I'll tell you what. In other snack news, I went to Albertsons to re-up my precious Zaps Voodoo Pretzel Twists.
Starting point is 00:53:31 Hell yeah. Because you're collecting the dust. I'm collecting the dust. I'm up to three bags. I have three empty bags of Voodoo dust. Wait, wait, wait. What size bags? The Voodoo bag?
Starting point is 00:53:42 The one pound bags. Yeah, the big bags. And you only have... Wait, wait, wait? The voodoo bag? The one pound bags. Yeah, the big bags. And you only have... Wait, wait, wait. Ziploc bag? No, no. You get them in like a 16 ounce bag. And you put the dust back in it?
Starting point is 00:53:53 I just leave whatever's dust is in there. And it's full? No, no, no. No, just the remnants. I just have an empty bag with whatever dust. Three of them. Gotcha. Because you're going to rim a cocktail glass with it, correct? Oh yeah, I'm going to rim
Starting point is 00:54:05 it real good. Jeff! What? We're not even, don't even respond to that Tim, that type of talk. But this is good for Mardi Gras. It's a Louisiana. This is great for Mardi Gras. Thank you so much, Tim. But here's the problem. I ran out. So what I do when I run out is I immediately go to the grocery store to buy another bag. No
Starting point is 00:54:21 zaps. No zaps on the shelf. I see dots. You know dots, pretzels? People say, oh, dots are really good. Seasoned pretzel twists. You're not buying it. I bought them. They fucking suck. Whoa! Dots? Get them out of here.
Starting point is 00:54:37 Okay, I get you don't like them as much as zaps, but you can't say they suck. Okay, yeah. But here's the other problem. I tried one. A little buttery. The exact same criticism I had to your Frito offer the other night. Ooh. Okay. Folks, Jeff's over at my place.
Starting point is 00:54:54 We're watching a movie. This I got to hear. Here's the snack selection I have. Chili cheese Fritos. Flamin' hot Fritos. Honey barbecue Frito twists. spicy jalapeno fritos scoops uh kind of you really go when you'll you go in on the fritos yep well yeah i was looking for chorizo fritos which they have down here in arizona but they don't have in la but it's fun
Starting point is 00:55:19 to taste all the different kinds i say oh this little oh, this, that, but then Jeff says, too buttery. I say, too buttery? Fuck you! I said, polite pass. Burritos are too buttery, man. They're fucking nastified. Polite pass. I'll Uber eat some pretzel dust. I'll say this, in
Starting point is 00:55:39 Tim's defense, he did take me out to Jenny's ice cream. I took you out, I bought you an ice cream. I made up for it. Because he didn't have any snacks for us? No, no, unrelated. Because the nachos were too buttery. Unrelated.
Starting point is 00:55:53 Jeff was crying. I was like, don't worry, buddy. I'll take you out to Jenny's. He's like, what do you want? Okay, what do you want? Jenny's, you pay. And then you're like, but Tim, I ordered butter pecan. Jenny's, you pay.
Starting point is 00:56:07 I'll say this. Just the, I have zero. You guys know I'm a brand new pothead. And when I'm not influenced by Lady Weed, Fritos are the last thing on my mind. I don't give a flying fuck about Fritos. When you're not influenced, yeah. When I'm not influenced. But as soon as Lady Weed seduces me, all I can think about are Fritos.
Starting point is 00:56:29 And specifically tasting the different flavors and say, this one's good. This one's bad. Ooh, bad, yeah. Tim will fall silent, and then his eyes just go toward the Fritos. Razor focus. Like a fucking martini cutting through a ribeye in your stomach just melts the top of the bag off okay guys guys we're getting off topic yes yes i know the tip what is the topic oh the we spent our whole temporary episode talking about fritos oh in as much as we got to take a
Starting point is 00:57:03 little break ah Ah, yes. So that we can show them all the latest and greatest ads. Perfect. Here's what I'm going to do for round two. I'm going to save my chartreuse for a rainy day. I'm not going to make another Tipperary. I'm going to pour myself a glass of sweet red vermouth. I shit talked it at the top of the pod,
Starting point is 00:57:23 and I'm going to drink it straight and see if I like it. Of just sweet red vermouth. Okay. I'm not even done with my Tipperary. It's such a sipper for me. Yeah, it is such a sipper. I'm going to hang out with mine. Well, hold on. Hold on. Is this something you'd put on a rock? Put on rocks? Sure. You could. I'm going to do it.
Starting point is 00:57:39 I'll come back with it. This will be on rocks. Alright, folks. We'll be right back. And we're back with our final thoughts on the Tipperary. Mike, take it away. Order again. Surprise. It was a big surprise for me. I loved it. I'm going to echo those sentiments.
Starting point is 00:58:09 I'm like, this is very good. I'm sorry about my attitude at the top of the show. Oh. It's okay. I think that's okay. It gives me the feeling of an old-fashioned. It's very warming as it goes down a soft
Starting point is 00:58:25 into the stone. And hey, maybe put it on the rocks like an old-fashioned. Maybe one big cube. I think that's what Jeff did. Yeah, there you go. Gotta say, it's working. It's good. And because of the little rind of the twist, it is very old-fashioned. You just get a little kiss of that oil,
Starting point is 00:58:42 citrus oil. Oh, there you go. Yeah. I love it. It's fancy. Oh, there you go. Yeah. I love it. It's fancy. It's an order again. Right now I'm drinking sweet red vermouth on the rocks, and it's stupid. Yeah. Oh, yeah, right, right, right.
Starting point is 00:58:56 Well, I'll tell you what I wanted to do because you're doing that. I got my little bottle of chartreuse, the one that I was lucky to get. Yeah, that's the one I had. Okay, so mine was green. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The price for this was $39.99 at the time wow and that's only how that was like a 16 ounce wow that's a small it's like 12 ounce 12 ounce wow 13 ounces like a small small little guy but here's what i want to do i'm gonna take a little sip and just appreciate what the monks have done. Oh, that's nice. Don't sip it straight from the bottle, a $40 bottle, and you're fucking...
Starting point is 00:59:28 Why not? Nasty. You're nasty, and I condemn your behavior. I'm in my own home. Gross. Good and bloody. Is it really that licorice-y? I feel like it's a little bit more...
Starting point is 00:59:43 Yeah. It's got like a mint effervescence to it. I mean, yeah, it's got a hundred herbs in it or whatever, but yeah. A hundred herbs. It's not like Sambuca or Uzo or Absinthe where it's like totally black licorice. It's got some twang to it. Yes, yes, yes. It's got
Starting point is 01:00:01 subtle hints of flavor. Ooh, burns. And it burns, burns, yes. It's got subtle hints of flavor. Ooh, burns. And it burns, burns, burns. What's the proof on that, Jay? Got the proof right here. I'm holding it. Oh, 55% alcohol by volume, folks, is 110 proof. Whoa, these monks can drink, man.
Starting point is 01:00:21 Those monks are going nuts. That's wild. That's like Ray and Nephew rum. Man, you shouldn't drink that straight. What am I doing over here? That would be a power move, Jeff. That's a 12-ounce bottle. If you were walking around a house party with a bottle of that instead of a beer,
