Working in the trades is intense.
It can be stressful and painful.
Some guys use drugs and alcohol to cope.
But when we ask for help,
we see someone struggling with addiction.
Our silence speaks volumes.
See how you can help or get help at Canada.ca slash ease the burden.
A message from the Government of Canada. Hey, folks, welcome to the sloppy boys, where we take a deep dive into the drinks that you
love America's favorite podcast.
I'm Jeff Dunn, along with the man, Mike Hanford.
I'm just going to say this once.
Jeff got a haircut.
He looks great.
And the fucking guy, Tim Calpac is what he is up.
It's a hell of a chop Jeff.
Folks, we don't talk about haircuts on the pod.
You can see the tension in Jeff's lips.
When I mentioned his haircut,
I'm just trying to barrel through. Well, you look great.
And you look so good.
You've frozen Tim.
He's froze.
He's got a nice little grin on his face.
No, I see him.
He's moving slowly, but surely he's chopping through.
Yo, yo, yo.
What do you guys think about that?
America's favorite podcast.
I don't I don't think it's wrong. I think it might be false is the issue.
You know, you think it's false.
I think I think it might be right.
I think I've looked at the numbers and it's the Joe Rogan experience.
It's sort of elastic.
Like you'll see a laundry detergent commercial
be like America's favorite laundry detergent.
And you're like, really?
Gain is America's favorite laundry detergent. And you're like, really? Gain is America's favorite laundry detergent.
Nobody uses gain.
I think they're just they say it because it's like it's got to be somebody's
favorite, probably.
Yeah, hard to calculate in America.
That one's up for grabs.
Well, when you say America, you're talking about America, Ferrera.
Yeah, the actor America's favorite podcast.
That's good.
And then we should just have a tiny picture of America Ferrera.
She's good.
And would like her name in Barbie font under it.
She did the speech, remember?
She did the big speech. She did. Hey, we're not here to talk about that. We're here to talk Remember, she did the speech.
She did. Hey, we're not here to talk about that.
We're here to talk about, well, first of all, a very special 70s trick.
But who's excited for the watch party tonight?
Yes, I think that'll be very good indeed.
October 11th tonight.
Jeff, did you, are you saying that this is a live stream? Tim, not only is this a live stream, this is, yeah, it's a watch party.
But I think also what you're saying is that if people are listening to this episode right
now and it drops, it means run to your devices and watch this watch party tonight.
But then also, if you listen to this episode a couple of days late, that's fine to still
run to your devices and watch it because it's going to be up for a week after the fact.
But basically, yeah.
Right.
And you might be thinking like, I'm not invited.
You are.
If you're listening, you can come.
You're invited to the watch party live stream.
And what's going to go down there?
See, that's a thing that a lot of people boom whispering about.
A lot of rumors going around.
And I think we could actually just reveal some of the treats that are going to be screened
at the Watch Party.
Right.
We were kind of coy and we just said, like, sneak peeks and then early works and raw thrills. But I would like to hear an itinerary because if I'm going to fork over my
$10 to watch a live stream, watch party party time, I want to know what I'm seeing.
Jeff, we don't the three of us don't have to pay to get in this thing, right?
Um, no, I'll cover you.
Thanks. Okay, great.
Um, I don't have any cash on me.
Yeah. So like, this is basically a podcast, but it's like two hours long
and you get video and boy, do you get video because we're going to be showing
a sneak peek at the new sloppy boys music video. Mm hmm.
Mike's student film, Petty Theft, a co a co effort with another friend of ours.
Eric Shiner. Yes. Yes. Eric Shiner.
Featuring a cameo by none other than one of your bandmates no spoilers
and a cameo and a cameo from uh one of Jeff and I's Fortnite friends okay a class music video Jeff
made for didn't tell I don't know is that how you say didn't tell like intel dental the dream of
Evan and Chan folks you know that that's that's like the first Postal Service song.
I did a music video for them in school.
And then Tim's uncovered voiceover work
for a Chinese knockoff of Kung Fu Panda.
We've probably mentioned this on the pod, but we've never seen it all
chopped together in one supercut, have we?
No, and I have not revisited my work in a long time,
and I would like to see how it holds up.
Yeah, I don't think I've ever, like when you sent Jeff,
you showed me the, or us the file,
it was a lot longer than I thought, Tim.
I thought you only had like a few little blips, blurbs.
You've got like monologues.
No, I'm like a big character.
He was in there for days and days.
And I'm a duo with-
Michael Clarke Duncan. Michael Clarke Duncan in his final film world before he passed
Can't believe we've never watched that. It's like kind of a testament to that movie that we'd never actually sat down. Well, wait
I'm like Johnny Depp. I don't watch my movies. Okay. Oh, yeah, right and hey, don't forget
We have newly unearthed sketch videos that we made around the house when we first moved to LA
So you get to see little babies
23 year olds with the crappiest camcorder. Yeah making
You know our nascent efforts into comedy. That's fun
I
Was perusing some of the possible videos in the in the drive
some of the possible videos in the drive, the iCloud.
Or was it a Google Drive or was it an iCloud or was it Dropbox?
I think it was all three.
We keep them all mixed.
I think it was the mainframe.
What we do, Tim, is we grab data from each,
let's say, so you've got a frame.
Each frame we grab data from three different storage clouds.
So yeah, you never really can.
That you have going over there.
That's where it makes it. Yeah.
Positive.
I used to be an archive specialist with Jeff.
Oh sure. Buster design.
When I was perusing some of these old videos, I had that feeling.
I get a lot when,
like when you open up Facebook or whatever and look at old pictures where I saw
sketches from when I was like 24 that I remember watching and be like, like when you open up Facebook or whatever and look at old pictures where I saw sketches
from when I was like 24 that I remember watching
and be like, ooh, I look like shit.
And I'm watching it now and I'm like,
whoa, I was young and gorgeous.
Yeah, I know.
Oh my God.
I have a couple of pics.
I didn't know that Chris was gonna send out that big batch
because I've been crawling through my own drives and I pulled a couple of gems that See, I didn't know that Chris was going to send out that big batch because I'd been, I've been crawling through my own drives and I'd
pulled a couple of gems that I don't even know if you guys know about.
What about, what about the pre-birthday boys stink house videos? Any of those?
Yeah, I found some of those fun.
That was interesting because we had a group, I guess you could call it called
stink house names named after our house.
And you could tell that we stink house names named after our house and
You could tell that we knew we needed runners and we needed little short bumpers. We needed a theme song
But it's like we had like just the rough idea of what a TV show needs
Yeah, right, you know, but it's like what did we did we think we were making a half-hour pilot highlight? Like, it was the golden age of just putting crap on YouTube,
like first wave, perfect time to be making short
little videos with the bros in your bro house.
But for us to be like, no, we need to have runners
in a theme song is like, I'll get a TV show.
And part of our thing was like, oh, the stink house,
it's in black and white.
Isn't that cool?
The thing that the public hates and the Hollywood hates. Stink House, it's in black and white. Isn't that cool?
The thing that the public hates and the Hollywood hates.
How can we stand out and be something people don't like?
I like having enough distance from the air to look back
and be like, oh yeah, it was like the YouTube sketch comedy
boom and any house of dudes was doing that very same thing
to varying degrees.
It was like, so not unique.
It was like if when the Beatles played at Sullivan,
you saw rock bands across America.
You saw them.
Well, you want to get into some booze news?
Ooh, yes.
Yeah, but, but, but, but, but, but, hit it. Yeah, buh-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh. Hit it!
When you get to a word like that,
and you're trying to decide whether
you're gonna pronounce it.
Because, if you say it wrong, you're an idiot.
Lime juice.
Lime juice.
Lime juice.
Lime juice.
If you say it right, you're an asshole.
Yeah.
Joiz de Lime.
Joiz de Lime.
Joiz de Lime.
Joiz de Pink Grapefruit.
We are looking at how to pronounce this word.
How do you say it?
Bears.
News.
Bears.
News.
Oh my God.
I mean.
Bears news.
Idiot or asshole was sent to us by Asa.
And if you have a booze news theme,
email it to sloppyboyspodcast.gmail.com. You know, every week I look forward you have a booze news theme, email it to thesloppyboyspodcast.gmail.com.
You know, every week I look forward to those little
booze news drops because it's just,
they're always entertaining to me.
And I like when they use clips from our show and I say,
oh, that's funny when we used to say that.
Do you say they're always entertaining Timmy?
Or did you say they're always entertaining to me?
To you, I said.
To Tim.
It's nice that you know, like, you know, for at least a minute
during the show, Mike and Jeff can just chill out and the
Booze News theme can entertain Tim.
Yeah.
We don't have to be on him all entertaining all the time.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I feel like it's kind of the opposite thing where I've I'm the only one who's
already heard the booze news team because I got it out of the inbox.
So I feel like I'm displaying it to you guys and you guys are locked in listening.
Well, yeah, if you think of it that way.
Are you watching our faces, Tim, and see like, oh, are they going to start cracking?
Yeah. And sometimes I'm like, it's bombing here, man.
I'm bombing. Kangar,, it's bombing here, man. I'm
Kangar, you sent me a dog, dude.
All right, what's the actual who's news? Okay, just a little quick little, I've got sort of a correction and a Calpies
correction. A take back, if you will. Okay, remember a few weeks ago,
I showed you guys the viral Outback Steakhouse
shark attack drink, the Aussie Jauzi.
Yeah, the Aussie Jauzi.
Well, we all applauded Outback
for cutting through the noise and for coming up.
We did, we said we had to give it up for Outback Steakhouse.
We said they came up with like, you know,
it's a company you don't think about,'t care about but then suddenly they have this hit drink
Congrats your you the ad wizards did it
And I went there and I had one if you watch our Instagram, I had a viral tik-tok
Yes
Instagram did you like the take?
Did you like the take it was too sweet to get through I like the take? It was too sweet to get through. I like the take of my video.
The taste of the thing was good for one second and then it was too sweet and then I couldn't.
It was cloying by the end.
Was the sweet from the blood?
Both.
I mean, you're having like a big, coroussouy lemonade and then you dump in sweet grenadine and stuff
so you're kind of a...
Right.
It's a dentist's delight.
Curacao would be a good name for a last name for someone in a movie.
Yeah, or director.
Johnny Curacao.
Sloppy Boys movie.
Akira Curacao.
That's when you get to direct a Sloppy Boys movie. Akira Curacao.
It's easy to get to direct this lobby boys.
We don't have an idea for a movie, but we know the name of a guy.
We got to find a guy with a specific name.
Who directs?
Um, okay, man.
Uh, so here's the thing. We made a big deal of it. We,
we gave it up for our boys over at, uh Steakhouse. And then immediately I find out-
What?
What?
Oh, jeez.
They just took this drink from somewhere else.
Of course, they did not invent the drink.
Some very helpful slobheads reached out and told me, I mean, there's a bar in Bourbon
Street in New Orleans called Tropical Isle who has long been making their famous shark attack cocktail with little shark in it that you turn upside
down, dumps up blood just like this.
So popular that then it was even kind of co-opted by this chain, Joe's Crab Shack.
So a chain was already there.
Then a guy that I taught sketch writing classes to back in the UCB days, DM'd me and said, my family owns a restaurant.
He started doing it.
Well, yeah, his family owns a restaurant in St. Louis
and they've been doing it.
So you're allowed.
For years, you mean they've been doing it for a long time?
For years and years.
So you're allowed to make drinks, right?
You don't have to invent the margarita
to sell it
at your store or whatever.
But I think that I at least want to take back
all my praise and compliments.
They just made a drink that other people
were already making and it happened to go viral
at their place.
Man, that's funny because I heard that they had one
called like the Croc-Attack.
Like they had a Crocodile one, which is more on Australia brand.
Right. Like they've had in years past, you mean?
Yeah. Or I'd heard this.
I didn't. I haven't checked this, folks.
So don't don't at me.
But that's funny that if they did try and do that and it wasn't a success
and they're like, oh, let's just do the shark and then the shark blows up.
Good for them. And as a matter of fact, I we just do the shark. And then the shark blows up. Good for them.
Hey, and as a matter of fact, I we should do Lazy Sunday and see if we get a boost off that.
You can just steal people's shit.
Remember, Tim and I once for a Christmas show in
at UCB did Dick in a Box, but just switch the words back to gift in a box.
It's a gift in a box.
That was so great. It didn't do well. That was the only switch we did, right?
Don't remind us of that. It did okay. I mean, it did well in one context and then for
spoofness it did really well because people were priming for that sort of thing.
That happens a lot when you're doing a silly parody and a silly parody song show.
The crowd is on board for that.
If you're trying to say, hey, the public,
people are going out on dates to enjoy themselves,
here's a parody that's, we, we, we, we.
We remove the comic element.
We remove, we have, you see people on dates
turning to each other, they've removed the comic element. And have you see people on dates and turning to each other they've removed the comic and therein is the funny. Shut up I can't hear the words.
I know that that's where it lies. Shut up I'm into this. I'm into you. Yeah.
A lot of that going on in the crowd when we did that song.
Well, too bad outback. Better luck next time.
Let's see what you got next summer.
Yeah, burger like next time.
All right. I mean, better luck.
Oh, because it's such a popular burger chain.
Back steakhouse.
They probably do.
They must have a birthday.
Must have a birthday. They probably do.
Please. Enough. So much so that it made Mike say Freudian slip about it.
That was not a Freudian slip.
That was just a regular fuck up.
That's Hampton style.
Bloop. Nothing Freudian about that one.
That's just a bad move.
All right. With booze news out of the way.
Did you wrap it up? Well, no, Tim move. All right. With booze news out of the way.
Did you wrap it up?
Well, no, Tim, you're right.
Well, just for one episode.
Leave it on.
What do you say?
Let's just leave it open.
Oh my god.
Well, then, at the very end of the show,
it should wrap up when the show ends.
Well, you can't give it up for your boys with it still open.
So we would have to wrap it up before then.
For now, let's just leave it.
We could do like a Jumanji style movie where like we leave, leave it open
and all the booze news starts getting out.
Yeah, it's like Pandora's box.
The booze news got into the main cocktail segment.
Being chased down the street
by the stay at home from work seltzer pack. I'm trying to drink a swamp water but I keep
drinking Aussie Jauzies. That would be a true nightmare. Why is there a little shark in
my alligator drink? Alright so with booze news. There's a shark in my alligator drink. All right. So with booze, there's a shark in my alligator drink.
Sorry, Jeff, I had to say that. Yeah.
All right. Well, with booze, with booze, still open and just sitting there,
we turn our attention to the drink of the day.
Yes. Yes. The drink of the day. Swamp water you've had.
Have not had.
I'm excited to have have heard. Yes. Have heard.
Now, where have you heard? Have not had excited to have've heard. To have. Have heard, yes. Have heard.
Now where have you heard?
Have not had, excited to have, have heard.
Yes.
Well, we've all heard on Boo's News on this very show
a couple weeks ago,
because this is a really funny,
I'm excited for this, for once.
I usually am slogging through this show miserable,
just doing it for the paycheck.
I've got a little pep in my step today because this is a funny and fascinating story here.
This is a 1970s drink that I had first heard about years ago on a David Wondred show,
but then it came up recently on Booze News because I was reminded of it by a Charlie XCX meme on Vine Pear.
And here is the backstory on the swamp water.
Chartreuse you've had, you've heard, you've had.
Yes.
Oh yes.
Yes.
Well versed now.
Yes.
Chartreuse is a fancy French liqueur made at the Chartreuse monastery by Carthusian
monks in the Chartreuse monastery by Carthusian monks in the Chartreuse
mountains of France. Prepared in the Chartreuse way. Take a sip of water Tim. Wow. That's a
tongue-tie. Rather Chartreusean of them. If you'd like to know more about those
monks, subscribe to the Sloppy Boys Blowout because this week's episode is us
talking about a three-hour silent musicless documentary that we
watched about these monks called Into Great Silence. Yeah it's not totally
silent though by the way sometimes you'll hear a well or some footsteps
yes and you might even hear some chanting. All of them sound is diegetic.
There you go yeah yeah it was, it was cool, folks.
If you're not a member, if you're not a Patron yet,
become a Patron and listen to that episode.
It's a good one.
Yeah. And go back and listen to the Dale DeGroff episode and the
yeah, and then take a bath.
Then the pedicure episode.
Oh, that's a fucking good one.
Yeah. And then fucking put more money down and listen to the fucking questions
for Lenin. Yeah.
Jesus Christ.
Neil Campbell, Sarah Hennessey, get on there.
Anyway, so these monks, right,
they started their monastery way back in 1084.
1084?
Yeah, 1084.
I haven't seen that date ever.
I don't think I've ever seen 10 something.
Well, you've seen 1080,
but normally it's like you're gnashing some gnarly pow.
What's the THX number?
That is that is so old. 10, 10, 84.
So there were, they were just praying for a couple of a few centuries.
And then by the time they got to 1605,
they started making their elixir for long life, AKA chartreuse liqueur, a 110 proof spirit
made from a secret blend of 130 different plants.
But mostly star anise.
It doesn't jump out that much.
I can only identify like 114 of them.
I gotta give it credit for not tasting just like good
and plenty like several other spirits.
It's in there.
It's in the mix.
It's in there.
But 130 different like plants are used in this,
herbs and fruits and stuff.
And then only two of the monks know the full recipe
and they don't ride in cars together.
It's sort of like the birthday boy sketch,
the Coke sketch.
Oh, that's a good Coke.
But they did have to like,
that had to become a thing, right?
The chartreuse, like whoever became like the corporate
runners or whatever had to kind of be like,
hey, maybe go separate, yeah.
Well, yeah, but the funny thing is it doesn't come up.
It's not like they can't fly together
because they're monks, they don't fly. They don't go up. It's it's it's not like they can't fly together because they're monks
They don't fly they don't go anywhere the only time in fact
The the only two monks that ever leave the monastery are these two because every once a while they gotta leave for like
Likour purposes
But monks don't leave they're just there they eschew technology. They got to stir the truce. They've taken a vow chastity
Sorry ladies Sort of a a no fap lifestyle.
Actually who knows, maybe they're fapping away or is it just a wet dream lifestyle,
I don't know.
But they've taken a vow of silence.
That's why the movie was oh so quiet.
They're just always shushing each other.
Well, that's why Bjork showed up right at the end.
Yeah, yeah, Bjork sort of gives it a little blessing.
They're just constantly starting to talk
and then the other goes, shh, and they go,
oh, right, shh, sorry, shut up.
Actually, they do get to talk for a little bit.
Sunday, like after church mass on Sunday,
they can talk for a little bit about like church stuff.
Oh, I gotta wash my robes.
Oh, me too.
You.
Tickle fight.
On Monday, they're allowed to go for walks in the woods in pairs of two for 20 minutes
at a time and talk to each other on Monday.
Wow.
That's cool.
Rest of the week, silence, no fap, no talk.
We should do that for this podcast. Go for walks in the woods with each other.
We do different combinations of two and record them.
Actually, that would be funny.
You guys did a blowout without me recently.
Yeah, you joined towards the end.
Yeah, you joined in pretty quick.
Actually, we didn't do a recap on that also.
When I listened to that episode at first, I was like, oh, this is good.
These guys are chill.
It's laid back, good vibe, conversations flow, and these guys are being funny.
Maybe I shouldn't be there.
Maybe I'm bad.
Maybe I'm ruining the show.
I'm listening.
But then here's what happens.
Then the topic of Beetlejuice comes up and you talk about it,. Then the topic of Beetlejuice comes up.
And you talk about it.
But then the topic of Beetlejuice does not subside.
And then you just talk about Beetlejuice.
It's good.
Yeah, no it's not.
Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, you were agreeing it was bad.
What?
No, no, the conversation was good.
No, I disagree.
I think it was geek shit.
You guys are Tweedled dork and tweedled-
Tim, if you want to show up to the fucking podcast episode, you can change the course
of conversation any way you see fit. There's value to be had in agreement too.
You don't always have to have opposing viewpoints. This isn't Fox News.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But when one guy says, I saw this movie, it's bad. Another guy says,
I saw this movie, it's bad. Then I skip forward 20 minutes, and they're like, yeah, yeah,
yeah, that was bad.
I think we derailed to something else interesting
then came back to field juice.
Yeah, that's probably what happened.
I'm almost sure that happened.
Yeah, you were probably talking about Fortnite
for a while.
It was weird.
It was weird just doing a two-person podcast all
of a sudden, because you're just so used to the flows.
Yeah, and the breaths and the silences are so apparent
when there's only two of you.
There's, you know, that's when you really lean on Meelen.
Lean on Meelen when there's Tim's not on the pod.
When pod's not strong.
When lean on Meelen when pod's not strong. When Pod's not strong. When, lean on Meelen, when Pod's not strong.
He'll be your editor.
To help you have a show.
Help you sell Patrons.
Okay, I'm off track. Wait, you were going somewhere, Tim.
I was. So all that I was saying about those months, for 400 years, they've made this liqueur and
it funded their monastery.
It's a very popular liqueur.
It's exported worldwide and they've been doing great.
In fact, the color chartreuse is named for this very liquid.
And it made its way into, it was like the first French liqueur.
So like, you know, Benedictine and Grand Marnier and Cointreau, all those come afterwards.
And Chartreuse makes its way into some classic pre-prohibition cocktails, like the last word,
the bijou, the tipperary.
Everybody loves it.
Everybody loves it.
Tipperary.
Get thee to the tipperary. Everybody loves it. Everybody loves it. Then cut to America, the second
half of the 20th century, AKA. Oh yeah. Smash cut. The dark age of the stupid cocktails.
We talked about this a lot. I did a whole history in the mudslide episode,
but you know, it's a time with sweet, juicy drinks
like the Sex on the Beach, Fuzzy Navel,
Slippery Nipple, Party Juicy Drinks.
A lot of them are vodka based, vodka and fruit juice.
The sweet juicies.
And it's a time when premium spirits
are simply not selling.
They're not being very much imported, They're not selling. So sorry Greg is
Greg is
Yeah, sorry Greg is
Okay, so but yeah, okay
But here's the kind of inciting incident here end of the 60s going right into the 70s
The people at Galeano Italian Liqueur are sick
of no one buying their giant yellow piss spikes.
Yeah.
Look, I've had it with this.
This is crazy, what do I sell this for?
We're backed up, we're sitting on these things
at the factory all day.
You know, their Italian Liqueur that tastes like boring,
black licorice is not selling,
so they hire some Madison Avenue Don Drapers who come up with the idea for the Harvey Wallbanger
cocktail, which is vodka OJ Gagliano, a screwdriver with a little floater on top.
They come up with a cartoon mascot and they're like, whoa, a California surfer dude named
Harvey drank too many of these at a bar in LA and banged into walls.
They put out all these ads and it works and that is a hit drink
for a dinky little liqueur.
So, now cut to chartreuse saying, hey, we can do that.
So, this 400 year old fancy ass liqueur
comes up with a drink called swamp water.
Chartreuse, pineapple, lime.
They start marketing it heavily, specifically in the South.
And they're selling it as a wild party drink.
And they've got a cartoon alligator mascot.
You may notice I'm wearing a t-shirt
of the mascot right now.
Oh, let's see.
Cool.
Bought that.
Bought that.
Bought that. Had to bought that.
Sorted.
There's, they put up these special like mason jar glasses.
There's a mail order kit where you get like postcard party invites and like a home game
that's like Twister.
Yes.
I saw this.
They're trying to get you to have swamp water parties.
Yes, that's where it starts to feel a little sexy 70s swinging like key party.
Like yes. you're invited.
Ooh, come do the twister.
Do the twister.
There's a boy gator and a girl gator.
Well, guess what they're going to do left
to their own devices.
The reason for that is that chartreuse is 110 proof.
So they're trying to make it sound sexy and dangerous.
And their magazine ads are, they say like more bang than wallbanger.
Supercharged do you dare invite a date to your swamp water party?
And then I saw one that said legal in all 50 states.
Like it's a weird loophole question, it'd be.
But yeah, they got inflatable alligators and alligator keychains and all that shit.
And it did kind of work for a second.
Hold on, that legal in 50 states thing is so funny
because to bring up legality of a drink is like,
whoa, is this a dangerous drink?
No, it's legal in all 50 states.
It's completely legal.
Just like beer and bread and singer on the bread.
Same legality as bread.
Well, swamp water also is like, it's a body of water.
You know, like it does feel like everyone,
you're getting into it.
You're immersed in it.
We're all immersed in it.
We're all slippery and fucking slime
and all over each other.
Yeah.
We're using ladles to pour it all over our wet, swampy asses.
They do, in the ads, they have the recipe
to make it by the gallon, like to pour in a whole bottle
of chartreuse and a gallon of pineapple juice and shit.
So they want it to be like jungle juice.
Good luck getting them at chartreuse these days.
It's going to cost you.
And then there was one ad that was also like, remember it was like, if your bartender doesn't
know what the fuck it is, tell him, give them this recipe.
It was like, you know, like cymbals didn't say fuck, but so it did have a little bit
of a moment, but it did not catch on as big as the wallbanger.
So it was lost to the sands of time.
And now here we are archaeologists of history and we're going to make it in 2024.
But as we've covered in Booze News, there is currently a chartreuse shortage going on. That's
still happening. And it's just because we're sort of living through a cocktail boom right now. A lot
of people want to buy the stuff, but the monks, they also want to chill out and pray and just keep
living their monk lifestyle. So they, just because it's popular, they don't want to chill out and pray and just keep living their monk lifestyle.
So they, just cause it's popular,
they don't want to step up production.
They're not, they're not like meeting the demand.
Yeah, the monks are fine.
It's that the bottles get snatched up
and they're not making more to compensate.
Exactly. The monks are cool.
The monks are doing their thing.
I do think they, maybe like 10 years ago,
the production went down a little bit.
The monks are chilling, but they're being cool.
But it's just the
problem is that old drinks like the last word, like we've made on the pod, are more popular
now. So people want to buy this shit. But then this last year, there was a New York
Times article about it and that spooked the market. You know, that's what there's a run
on the product. Like people started hoarding bottles of chartreuse and that's why we actually have a problem.
And it's stupid because chartreuse doesn't age well.
It's not like scotch or something where you'd be like,
I have this old bottle of chartreuse.
It actually like loses flavor.
But do you know how much, how, what, how much price jumped
up to like, I've looked at it at places and see normal price.
I think that I think maybe like online there's some gouging or something, but like smaller
bottles maybe.
I've just found it hard to find.
Oh, okay.
There are a lot of copycats and taste the likes and stuff.
There always have been, and now there's even more.
So I went to like Barkeeper, the fancy liquor place in Silver Lake. And they had like three different options that were like European style
liqueurs and they're green or bitters that were flavored like that and stuff like that. So,
slopheads, if you can't get green chartreuse, do not worry about that. And yellow chartreuse
is similar too. It's just that that's mellower, a little bit sweeter and it's 80 proof.
Your drink just won't represent a swamp,
really, traditionally.
And mine might not have as much bang as Wallabanger
is the issue there.
There's also red chartreuse, or am I out to lunch?
In America, we only have green and yellow.
Yellow is made for ladies in the 1800s,
and Queen Victoria used to drink three fingers of it
every night.
But I think red, Mike, are you saying that? for ladies in the 1800s and Queen Victoria used to drink three fingers of it every night.
Mike, are you saying that because did you see that in a Tarantino movie? Was that in Death Proof? Oh, I've never seen Death Proof.
Oh, shit.
I thought there was-
So there are, yes, there are other chartreuses in Europe. We don't have them here,
but I think that Tarantino in Grindhouse, there was a reference to neon chartreuse that
doesn't actually exist or something like that.
Right.
Crazy.
Crazy.
But if you're listening to this bot
and you can't find real chartreuse,
just get any green European liqueur.
And now here is the recipe we're gonna make today,
which I took off one of these magazine ads from the 70s.
Two one and a half ounces of green chartreuse add six ounces of pineapple juice. Rime. A quarter lime and ice. Stir. Now that quarter lime I don't
think that's a quarter ounce. I think it's saying like cut a quarter wedge of
lime and squeeze it. Yeah okay. You're right.
Squeeze and plump. And yeah we're not
going to make the gallon version. We'll make that and uh ideally we'd be using official mason jars
that have the little alligator. I do have a mason jar and I'm going to use it but not one of the
approved. Yeah I got a mason jar. I'm going to use my little can shaped glass. Yes. Oh a good call Mike.
Yeah. Well I can't wait to do this one. Me too. Me too. Can I, can I leave us here with a little,
with a little factoid before we go to, so Tim, Tim mentioned the twist of game twister before.
I just heard this funny little factoid. Twister right up until the very last minute,
right before they put it out, like printed the boxes and put it out. It was called Pretzel. Wow.
Pretzel.
Wow.
Why'd they change it?
I guess Pretzel just kind of doesn't sound
that cool after all.
How about a Sloppy Boy song called
Playin' Twister with Your Sister?
Playin' Twister with Twisted Sister.
Playing Twister with Twisted playing twister with twisted sister.
That's good.
Get decent.
I'm all gone.
Red red.
You're not gonna stay up.
Yep.
Okay.
All right, folks, we're gonna go make these drinks and we come back more of America's
favorite podcast.
Yes. The Joe Rogan experience. and when we come back, more of America's favorite podcast.
Yes.
The Joe Rogan Experience?
Yeah.

Swamp waters.
Let's see them.
You're.
What Jeff?
Yours is beautiful.
Mine's not that green in real life.
Yeah, yours looks greener than ours.
On the camera it looks.
Yeah, I feel like mine looks more.
It's just on camera.
This is mine's piss yellow.
Mine's more green in real life.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know. I don the camera. It looks. Yeah, I feel like my list is on camera.
This is mine's piss yellow.
Mine's more green in real life.
And we're back.
Can we take a sip? I'm dying.
Yes. Swamp water sips.
Yes, I want to say I got a nice big boba straw.
This is fun knowing it's the actual original recipe.
Yeah. Yeah.
Oh.
Oh, yeah. Ooh. Ooh.
Yeah.
Oh, that's good.
It's like, you know, got some fruitiness to it,
but not so much where you feel like it's a,
because right at the end,
you get a little bit of that anise-y pinch.
Yeah, it tempers that sweet, sweet pineapple.
Yeah.
Like if this was just that pineapple juice and lime and like a vodka or something,
you'd be like, oh, this is a sweetie drink.
It's I mean, it's definitely a lot of juice when we drink this whole thing.
We will have had six ounces of a very juicy juice, but this
the truce comes through the juice.
The truce is loose Matt
You know what I got from my pineapple juice. I was at a
it wasn't a Whole Foods, but it was like a
type of store that's trying to be a Whole Foods like an independent one and I got a
like a pineapple pressed juice like a like a
pressed juice. Pressed. Yeah.
So they pressed it pressed.
OK, but it's fresh.
It's like they did it today.
Well, but when it's pressed, it means it's filtered.
They took out the gunk.
So it's a nice clear juice.
Yeah, that's great juice.
And most of your doll is from concentrate.
You're saying Mike got his straight from the fucking
armored fruit itself.
Yeah, but I'm sure the juicer was concentrating quite.
Yeah, yeah, he was focused in that he was focused.
Yes. Now he's focused. Yeah.
Yeah. Putting all his energy into squishing that giant.
What are these grapes?
What is that?
Armadillo of a fruit.
Yeah, it's the one fruit that really, really, you know, show me you don't want me to cut
you open, but don't tell me you want me to, don't want me to cut you open.
You know what I mean?
You know what I mean?
Tell me you don't want to be cut open by not telling me.
I don't know.
It's interesting like the tastes of the day because I do think chartreuse seems to be working.
I'm not getting a lot of lime, but I guess it's just balancing it out.
But the chartreuse and pineapple is working.
But if you were going to make this today, you would just use half the amount of juice
and it would be a nice little chartreusey thing.
But in the 70s, I guess people at Fern bars or down south at party bars, they just wanted
to have a big goblet of juice, huh?
Yeah.
The pallets weren't as evolved, Tim.
They just wanted juicy juice and sugary sugar.
They want to go to the Leonard Skinner concert.
Though this is 110 proof,
it's only an ounce and a half of it.
So it's not even like we're gonna,
it's not like it's fully like a double.
Right. Yeah.
A couple of sips of this make you want a wife swap.
I would say this is key party juice. like a double right. Yeah. A couple of slips of this make you want a wife swap.
I would say this is key party juice.
Yeah, I forgot that chartreuse is so high. ABB. It's such a weird drink.
Like it's it's so lofty.
Chartreuse is so like storied and lofty to be mixed with the likes of.
Shwasse to Pina play and.
mixed with the likes of joista peanut play and leave into and have a cartoon lizard.
It's really the name of the lizard.
You know, like pineapple, if you have good pineapple,
that's kind of fancy lime.
You know, everything has lime.
It's really the name.
Nothing against the fruit, really.
Yeah, but it's just funny to call it
saw butter and then look at it and like yeah that looks like cloudy ass, dank
ass, gross ass, fucking water. You guys ever have a jungle juice or did you ever make
jungle juice? I've never made jungle juice. What is that again just a mix of a
bunch of liquors? Yeah. I don't know. I mean, I know, I would assume it's vodka and juices,
but college classic.
Like powdered Kool-Aid with like,
one bottle of rum, one bottle of vodka,
that sort of thing.
And like, yeah, I want to say like Country Time Lemonade
or powdered Kool-Aid because it's just like ultra flavor
and ultra sugar.
It's like the borgs.
Yeah, it's like a borg.
Yeah.
Or a hop, skip, and go naked.
Right.
Yep.
I'm looking at the Wikipedia and there's not one recipe.
It says there's countless recipes, but it's just for group consumption and it's got juices and liquor, but it can be
a lot of different things.
But yeah, the chartreuse, Jeff, I agree is lofty and especially after watching the documentary
about those monks and being like, well, this is not what they expected their drinks to
end up with.
Yeah.
Oh, brother Anthony, brother Anthony, have you heard what they're doing?
You're not supposed to talk to me.
And I'm not supposed to talk either.
Whoopsh.
Imagine if they knew,
if they only knew what the Americans were doing
with their chartreuse.
Yeah.
They'd probably say, pass it over here then.
I think they actually really didn't know. I think it
was the ad wizards on Madison Avenue that came up with this and the monks were
just doing their thing. But the monks do drink it. Like after dinner they do get a
little silly off the elixir. Oh really? And it does pay for them to like have
work hands and not servants but like it does pay for them to have a staff and focus on their prayer.
Yeah. Yeah. In much the same way that the Patrons help me focus on my prayer in the day to day.
Absolutely. The monks remind me of, you know, it's a really good kind of meme format. I've
been seeing a lot lately is it'll be like if bro lived closer
and it's like two sorcerers in the woods and sometimes it'll be like a 10 picture scroll
of just like two wizards by a pond two wizards looking at the moon. I've seen one like that also
that's like um like the Mr. Toad and Mr. Frog style guys are like, you know, people
in like a couple of proper coats and bullet heads, but it's like a possum and a squirrel
who is like when me and bro finally live together and they're like making popcorn from scratch.
It's funny with Frog and Toad and like the swamp water and let's not forget mood dang I feel like there's a moment happening where
People just want to leave society behind and be like a slippery little creature. Yeah. Oh
What was the first one?
The frog and toad Oh frog to yeah, yeah toad and frog. I think I'm just also
Different but a lot of the same vibe is like there's been a big boom and Snoopy and I think there's something different, but a lot of the same vibe is like, there's been a big
boom in Snoopy.
And I think there's something about just watching someone be like cozy in a bed or doing their
own thing or like, if you feel like you're too online or you're working too much in the
rat race, it's really quaint.
Just look at a little creature sitting in a little bed with a smile on his face.
Yeah.
Calvin Brodus loves Snoopy.
Who's that? Snoop Dogg. Calvin Grotus? Brodus
with a B. Brodus. Wait, his affinity for and resemblance to Snoopy. Resemblance to. Hold
on, I got to find something I was looking at. But yeah, doesn't it feel like when the internet
first hit,
there was like a pullback and there was like,
oh, but there are some of us who like to read our books
and there are some, I don't know, just stepping back,
unplugging.
And I feel like we've gotten back into
like hard internet stuff and then back to
what I was just talking about, like pulling back again.
Right. Touching grass.
Hell yeah. I think you could go either way.
You either make a choice to go brain rot zinternet,
or you take a step back and you're a woodland creature.
Zinternet meaning Gen Z internet?
I've never heard that.
ZYN like zin.
Zin like nicotine.
I guess.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh, oh, oh, oh. I get you. What was the frog one? Mike, you sent me one recently that was like,
no one, it was like, no one likes Tim. It was a picture of a frog. I'll look at that one. I'll find it again. But this is one,
it's got like a little David the gnome type guy and he's cold bed and start giggling and going crazy. And going crazy.
That's such a funny way of putting that,
but we all know getting into bed and going like whoa.
And going crazy.
How does someone, I mean that came to me
because I do that type of thing. Like how does this fucking internet?
Well, I think everybody, when you're in your clean sheets,
it's fun to like kick your feet a little bit,
but you're going crazy.
It's so funny.
Going crazy.
I had a moment not, you know what?
Tim, a lot of us kick our feet before we get into bed.
Just so you know.
No, that's a wiping of the feet.
That's a lot of cricket sort of chimp motion.
You know, I love seeing like Snoopy when he's like in bed with a big hot fudge sundae on his lap
and he's smiling.
Yeah.
And he's got big blankets over him.
A couple of weeks ago I was eating sushi.
I was watching TV and eating sushi and I totally was like, I'm exactly like that.
Timmy's in a sushi restaurant.
Timmy's in a sushi restaurant.
Harry Styles. For miles and miles.
New sloppy boys song.
Hold on. I found the I think you get to see this.
Tim, not a thought in his head doesn't leave the house.
It's just a painting of a frog guy.
It's a painting of a frog guy. It's a painting of a frog guy,
but it was like a bunch of other paintings like this is Ned.
He talks too much.
But even that is comforting.
Like not a thought in his head.
It doesn't sound mean it's like, yeah, that's kind of nice.
Not a thought inside.
Yeah.
Doesn't leave his house.
I think we all like to get things boiled down to just
be living like bugs in little huts.
Yeah.
Let's go back.
Hey, we should do.
I was thinking,
do a blowout called like no phone day.
No. And like, but here's the thing.
We would say like you can use the phone, the maps,
the text and like, that's it.
You know what I mean? Because, oh, OK.
You have basic communication and like maps,
but and maybe even email because it's like you're not going to spend 20 minutes
scrolling through your own emails.
Pick a minimal amount of apps that we can use and then do like a 24 hour thing
where we we kind of commit to it.
Maybe we find a whatever device or app that makes you.
That's how I was going to say, what if it's what if it's like from nine to five,
like a work day or something?
A full day?
I gotta get on my apps.
Click my friends out.
Click on my friends' pictures, man.
I gotta use that calculator app, man.
Yeah, I don't wanna miss the latest mood day.
I've been off my phone for one hour plus two hours.
How many hours is that?
I don't have my calculator app.
Damn it!
Damn! Let me just get this. How detailed is your Google Calendar? You wake up on a Friday
morning, you say, what do I have to do today? Do you open up your Google
Calendar and is it all there? Yeah. Now, Jeff, does that mean events and tasks?
Yeah, it's like what I want to do and, you know, stuff might get punted.
But are tasks carrying over from when they're not being completed earlier in the week?
Yeah, but I'm not like super diligent about it.
I might forget a task, not do a task, and then I forget about it for a couple of days
and then I go, ah, I gotta get those genes mended.
But is it writing there as a Google task on your calendar?
In the crotch.
I guess I don't use the Google, I use this fucking thing.
You know, like, I just.
Yeah, your phone.
Yeah, the phone app.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't bother like syncing anything,
but like, you can see it says like,
pod, Patreon, because it's the first of the month rent first of the month and then up top it says blowout
description pod notes grocks groceries laundry yeah I have a very similar thing
and I used to just only do events but because I use the gmail one and then I
also got the app for it right next to my that app but But I started doing tasks so that you entered as a task.
If you don't do it, it's still there the next day.
The task app.
And so I'm only one week into tasks and they're gathering in numbers.
And now I look at my phone.
They're gathering, they're turning against me as a matter of fact.
If I say, I want to say swamp water research,
I don't enter that as an event.
I enter swamp water podcast as an event,
but swamp water research is something I need to do
as a task, you know?
It doesn't matter if I do it at 11, 20 or noon.
It's just a task I have to do.
But so when you do it to ask you that-
And what app is that in?
Tasks.
Gmail.
No, no. Gmail.
Oh, shit.
Your Google Calendar.
You're like.
From your phone, you're saying?
Like, you do it from your phone?
I do it from either.
But I'm talking about, you know, like if you get a,
I know the one you're talking about, Jeff, which is just
the iPhone one.
Oh, reminders.
That's the one I'm thinking of.
I don't use that.
I'm talking about the one that you get an email that's like,
do you want to go to this thing?
And then you say yes
And gmail will like automatically add it to the gmail. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, I do that too if it's if it's expected of me
That tasks is a good one. I uh, I gotta do something like that
It's good
But on a day like today I woke up and there were like all of yesterday's tasks got piled on today because I didn't do shit
Yesterday, so now I feel like I'm under an avalanche and I'm just running.
Tasks behind me.
Open eyes.
Okay.
You're just running like Indiana Jones chased by the big ball.
That would be the meme of me and my tasks.
Or me, the meme where it's like you don't know what someone's going through and then
you have a chain and a big boulder behind them and they're pulling their baggage.
For me, it's all my tasks.
Your tasks.
Swamp water research.
I just use, I have this notepad that has like,
this one's a mess but it's,
you got like the days of the week
and I just write the tasks down.
Oh, it's an official weekly planner.
That's nice Mike because what I try to do
on my phone similarly is if I finish a task,
use strike through,
like don't delete it because I want credit that I cross something off or check something
off.
I want to look back and see like, oh no, I did three things today when it's like 5 p.m.
and I'm like, I did nothing.
No, I did three things.
I was just thinking, I was like, maybe I should bring this all over to the phone and have
it all centralized.
But I think I would just get on the phone again too much.
Start checking it, talking to people, calling people.
Well, we do have one task ahead of us, a very important task.
Round two.
Coo, coo, coo, coo, coo.
Do you change anything?
Do you add anything?
Do you subtract anything?
Yeah, let me think about this, because it needs.
It's tricky, because I would say I would like some more chartreuse in this, but then I'm like, now I'm taking
my last little bits of chartreuse that I have to my name.
Am I going to dump them into this drink and waste them when I could be having a nice after
dinner sipper after my French feast?
Yeah.
You're going to get a French feast?
Every night.
I'm gonna add a little more, just like a half ounce
to goose it up as I go, which is, you know,
that's a practice we stand by here in the pod,
sloppy boys LLC.
And I'm gonna see if that does anything
because the ice is melting.
It's a nice, it's not quite as sweet,
but I just wanna make sure I make the most
of that chartreuse.
What do you think about,
what do you think about putting bitters in this?
Cause I feel like I want the chartreuse
to be a little more there.
Like I want a little more of that.
I saw recipes that were called for daiquiri bitters.
Oh, daiquiri. I'm gonna try it.
I'm gonna see what types of,
I got Angostura, got Pachodes.
Maybe an orange.
I'm orange bitters, rhubarb.
I have those too.
What about vodka?
Just to just to make it stronger, but not add too much taste, you know, vodka.
Oh, that's good.
All right.
Well, this will be interesting.
Very interesting.
I'm going to use a little less pineapple.
I'm going to maybe do five pineapple juice ounces rather than.
All right, folks, we're going to make round two.
And when we come back, final thoughts.
Peace.
Working in the trades is intense.
It can be stressful and painful.

Getting swampy.
I put my put some bitters in mine.
It looks like Angostura.
Mm hmm. It looked like a Angostura.
Mm-hmm.
It looked cool.
It kind of looked like that.
It had that cool shark bite or what was it?
The jaws of the Aussie Jaws.
Aussie Jaws.
I had the kind of like the it looked like blood falling through the swamp water.
Okay.
I doubled my chartreuse.
Wow.
Let's see howreuse. Wow. Wow.
Let's see how we do.
Yeah, way better.
Oh my God.
Way, way, way better.
Yeah, I added half a, I mean, just to my remaining half swamp water, I added half an ounce of
lime juice, half an ounce of chartreuse, and it's still very, very pineapple-y.
So Tim, that's a move.
Just go nuts with the chartreuse.
And I would nurse this all night.
It's really strong, but that way I wouldn't have
juice belly and night sweats.
This bitters helped, but like give it more flavor,
but it kind of just drowned out the chartreuse a little bit.
Whoo.
Interesting little drink.
So when we covered swamp water and booze news,
I ordered this swamp water t-shirt,
and then it happened to come in the mail today
when I'm recording the swamp water thing,
and I said, that's great, and I gave it a wash.
That's great.
I was wondering why it was so cheap.
It was very cheap, like delivery and everything
was only like $25, and look, it already did this thing
where the collar has like rolled and rolled in.
You know, like these days you gotta buy the heavy,
you gotta buy the heavy t-shirt from the bear
that's like a flat weighted shirt.
But these shirts are, they fold in and they roll in.
There was a commercial where a guy was on a date
and his collars all rolled in and everyone laughed at him.
Another laugh at me.
I've heard the term, bakening of the collar.
Where it's like your collar just getting all rumbled
and fucked up and folded.
Yeah.
That's me.
I bought a t-shirt on some Instagram site
that was advertised to me,
and it was one of those kind of bigger, thicker,
Yeah.
The whole thing was thicker,
and it kind of, I was like,
oh, this is a modern fit, Mike.
Look at you go.
Like intentionally, not the Haynes beefy tee,

down to the waist. And I brought a donor t-shirt to sew in.
Like you can use this to let it out. Mr. Taylor,
I have an idea that's my you let it out. Mr. Taylor, I have an idea.
That's funny how you started out.
You can use this t-shirt as a donor.
He probably wanted to use his creativity
to solve the problem, but you were like,

And he understood the assignment.
You were there probably laying it out in front of him,
