Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey folks, welcome to the Sloppy Boys where we take a deep dive into the drinks that you love. I'm Jeff Dutton along with Mike Hanford. Oh, top of the morning to you, Jeff. Thank you. You're welcome. And Tim Kalkakis. What is up? Kiss the Blarney Stone stylies to you, Jeff. Thank you. You're welcome. And Tim Kavakis? What is up? Kiss the
Starting point is 00:00:26 Blarney Stone's stylies to you Jeff. Oh both for me. Very nice. Have you guys, you guys know what the Blarney Stone's all about? Yeah. You like go up and kiss it I think. Yeah. You go up to a, what now what is all about? And they also say the locals piss on it in the night. Right, right, right. I've heard that. I hear locals are pissing on everything all over the place. Yeah, don't kiss any of our shit, actually. I visited the Blarney Stone, but then afterwards,
Starting point is 00:00:58 I was to a pub. I was kissing the urinal in the toilets and stuff. And then I said, these other locals piss on that. You know what the sweetest one is? That little blue disk in the bottom of the urinal in the toilets and stuff and then I said, the locals piss on that. You know what the sweetest one is, is that little blue disc in the bottom of the urinal. That's the best. Best thing to kiss? That's the best thing to kiss.
Starting point is 00:01:12 That minty little urinal cake. The Blarney Stone is a famous stone in Blarney Castle in Ireland. Visitors kiss the stone to gain the gift of gab or eloquence. Eloquence, I want eloquence. And I want the gift of gab or eloquence? Eloquence. I want eloquence. And I want the gift of gab. I don't talk enough.
Starting point is 00:01:30 Whoa. You never talk, so you need to gather. Well, Tim, we should each do a thirty three point three three percent kiss. Just to lock in those numbers. Yeah, we want to be in the Blarney Stone helps us get really rigid. Like if I start talking 34% my my my voice cuts out sentences just cut off. I've heard it's awkwardly placed where you have to kind of like reach your lips down. Yeah, I'm looking at pictures of you have to be on your back and people are like
Starting point is 00:02:00 holding other people's legs so they don't slip down this little shaft out into the chasm. It's a chasm. It's a chasm. Well, Mike, no risk, no reward. That's true. If I want the gift of gab, I should be held upside down by a Irish guy. It's like gab or eloquence. This is a weird position and it looks like more like a Blarney wall. Yeah, right. Yeah, right. Yeah, there's just one stone on there, I guess,
Starting point is 00:02:27 that makes, I don't know what's going on here. Who decided that that one, like, it's like a brick wall of stones. It's not like, they're not like round. They're like, it's just. Also, you know, you've seen a thousand pictures of people like in front of the leaning tower of Pisa and holding it up or doing their funny thing
Starting point is 00:02:43 or not holding it up. And this is just, these are the most unappealing pictures of people like, Oh, look at my trip. I you're seeing the bottom of my chin. I think I'd rock upside down. Holding on to these red, all that is just that doesn't. I'm stretching. My shirt is coming up in the front. This is not good. You're seeing my neck in a very vulnerable and uncomfortable position.
Starting point is 00:03:08 Vulnerable for strike, of course. For strikes. Yeah. Yeah. You know, you know, that's why people bow. Oh, it's, it's showing like I'm putting a neck is a, easily damaged zone. So I'm putting it down in front of you. It's like saying if you wanted to get me in a half Nelson or even a full Nelson, this would be your opportunity. Yeah, I think that goes with handshakes too.
Starting point is 00:03:30 The idea is like, look, my hand doesn't have a weapon in it. Either is yours. Yeah. This hand at least. And my wrist is so slittable. Yeah, I'm here. We have each other at each other's grasp, my man. It's funny, when I shake your guys' hands,
Starting point is 00:03:43 I really grab it and like pull you towards me like Trump. Yeah. Just to show dominance. When I shake Mike's hand, there's always a little fireball mini in there. He can't be holding a knife or a gun because he's got so many little minis. I used to get compliments,
Starting point is 00:03:59 ooh, that's a nice firm handshake. I haven't gotten that compliment in a while. Oh, maybe you're not keep, you gotta keep up on that stuff. I know. Maybe I'm just fist bumping more because of COVID. That's true. It could be the case that you used to have a strong handshake,
Starting point is 00:04:11 but now it's wearing away. It's atrophying with age. Yeah. Or it used to be a handy young man's handshake. Look at me. I got the thing here. I got the power. And now it's I'll fit in where we both fit in, brother.
Starting point is 00:04:24 I've learned what's important in this art of conversation. Yes, this is the soft handshake of empathy These days when you get a hard handshake, you're sort of like, oh you're still doing those Yeah, oh, maybe I also maybe it's in fashion. People aren't liking that Well, I just think that growing up like I learned to shake a hand my dad's like Yeah, grab it hard. you look the guy in the eye and you say, argh, argh, son of a bitch. How about, I was, we're shaking hands with people in the t-shirt line there out on tour.
Starting point is 00:04:55 Oh, by the way, folks, thanks for coming to all those tour shows. We've been having a blast. You'll be hearing some more of those. Oh yeah, we're hoping you're loving the new tour episodes. They are fire, bro, but we just needed to take a little break for the special episode of the day. If it's a holiday, it's a holiday coming up.
Starting point is 00:05:11 A drinking man's holiday. It was sort of a top of the morning kiss of the morning still kind of vibe that we have a vibe. Yeah, we're talking, well, it's the St. Patrick's Day holidays or what we're getting. Sort of the hi-d-d sort of. Sure, yeah. Oh, right, right, right.
Starting point is 00:05:23 That said, if anyone's been listening to live episodes and they were like, hey, I'd like to be in a room with those guys at some point in my life. Oh, who wouldn't? Our band is about to play a series, I'm calling it the West Coast Concert Series. What do you think of that, guys? Yeah, I like it.
Starting point is 00:05:38 That's about right. March 28th in Seattle at Madame Lou's, March 29th in Portland at Holocene, April 2nd in San Francisco at Bottom of the Hill, April 3rd in LA at Zebulon and Frogtown, big show. That's cool. I'm excited to play there. We've been eyeing that.
Starting point is 00:05:55 Yeah, that's gonna be good. April 4th, San Diego Soda Bar, April 5th, Phoenix Valley Bar. Go to those shows. Available on our socials and thesloppyboys.com. Come on out, folks. Kisses the Barney Stone to you. You guys said that you've been to the Grand Canyon, yes?
Starting point is 00:06:14 Oh yeah. Yes. I haven't been, so I'm gonna probably be doing that when we go to Phoenix. Now, getting back to what I was saying at these live shows, when we are at the t-shirt table, meeting the fans, talking to people, it's great. You'll shake hands with some people.
Starting point is 00:06:27 Some of these guys, I was getting some hand when we were in the Midwest. Some of those guys got a big hand, man. That's how we do it. Midwest hand, come here. That's a corn-fed hand. Shake that big old clamp. Ow.
Starting point is 00:06:40 Yeah, it's like, it's a big fatty. It's always fun shaking hands with those types of guys. I have that thing where I'm shaking. What I thought was I had to look down. It's just a big, huge pork chop. You're like, hey, whose chop is this? It's hard to keep track of whose chop is whose. We played in Milwaukee at the Magic.
Starting point is 00:06:57 No, not the Magic Bag. That was Detroit. We played a cool room in Milwaukee called? X-Ray Arcade. X-Ray Arcade. And out the door, out the back door was a bacon factory. We could smell the bacon. The whole town kind of smells like bacon and always has.
Starting point is 00:07:15 It's a meat. Yeah, meat backing. But it's not processing. It's not the stinky aspects of meat mass production. It's just like perfectly seasoned bacon getting like wrapped up Yeah, it used to be in the past it you could smell some slaughterhouse mixed in and now it's just delicious cured meat yeah, you it's just the spices and and Delicious beef all those good parts of bacon they Yeah, have you guys heard the thing about in Irwindale, California, in the San Gabriel Valley,
Starting point is 00:07:50 about the Sriracha factory out there? Yeah. It was like a spicy air, right? It was a spicy, it was like the only other town I could think of that has specific smell, but there was a Sriracha factory, and it was burning everyone's eyes, and kids were outside on the playground crying and stuff.
Starting point is 00:08:05 And they were trying to get the factory like 10 years ago, trying to do something about it. That's the price you pay. We just don't have like a way of testing for spicy air. So the guy was like, come test all you want. We're not believing. I ain't going anywhere. So the air's a little spicy.
Starting point is 00:08:21 He's giving like a talk to the town and his eyes are just streaming tears. Hey man. It's like mustard gas though. That's such a crazy thing to release in the air. It's just so insane. A perfect villain and then also kind of typical such government bullshit of like, you know, like people are complaining about spicy air.
Starting point is 00:08:42 So they send someone else out to be like, well, there's no carbon monoxide. I guess he's he's free to go. OK, it still hurts my eyeballs. Well, we can't arrest the air, sir. So I guess I don't know. They cuffed the cloud at one point. I think who could cuff the clouds? Well, do we get into a little booze news? Who could cuff the clouds?
Starting point is 00:09:08 Well, do we get into a little booze news? B-b-b-b-b-b-blarney. Hit it. I could go and read online, get my news from Garnish or from Time, Martini in my glass, where's my ribeye? Ooh, but I'd rather hear Booze News. Tim and Jeff also might on the right podcast for you. Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
Starting point is 00:09:35 That's Booze News. That's Booze News was sent to us by Chris Finke, AKA stinky think. And if you have a booze news theme, email it to the sloppy boys podcast, the gmail.com pinky the stinky think man. Is that Taylor? No, it's JJ Abrams daughter. Oh, Gracie. Um, that's so funny to hear, like, quietly.
Starting point is 00:10:05 Yeah, the thinking belt that you got to belt it. Come on, Fiki. Oh, Jeff, you just belted. I think you're a little spicy. You're trying to make up for Finky is a problem. I know. Fink's DBs are too low.
Starting point is 00:10:19 We got to add more Debs. Deep enough. He's good, though. I like Finky stuff.. Finky's great. He's one of the fucking greats. Okay, well it's St. Patrick's Day weekend. It's booze news. So you know it's time for the St. Patrick's Day
Starting point is 00:10:37 news roundup. Meelen, give me some Irish jig type music here. All right, and here are the headlines this year. Ottawa, sorry, your St. Patrick's Day is canceled. There were budget issues that slowed them down and they didn't fill out the permits in time. Savannah, Georgia is enhancing security at their parade this year
Starting point is 00:10:56 after the New Year's Eve tragedy in New Orleans. So watch out for that. And hey, a sober St. Patrick's Day. That's right, a Christian group in New York City is having an alcohol-free St. Patrick's Day celebration by choosing to refocus the festivities on St. Patrick himself and his many accomplishments. Name one.
Starting point is 00:11:17 I'm gonna go down there, Tim. I'm gonna straighten that whole thing out in New York. I'll bring a six pack of Keystones, man. The good thing's going. You think that that's the issue? Like they wanna drink it, they just need a six pack of Keystones, man. They get things going. You think that that's the issue? Like they want a drink and they just need a guy to bring us some beers?
Starting point is 00:11:29 We just need someone to get it started. Well, I think it's right. Let's not forget the many accomplishments of St. Patrick. I like that. There's still music and stuff. It's just a non-alcoholic event, but I do like the idea of like, you know what people say about Christmas?
Starting point is 00:11:47 It's like, we've lost our way. It would be very funny if St. Patrick's Day is like, yes, there's that saint that we, like we don't really honor any other saint, especially like in America. But if we were like, yes, yes, that guy who got the snakes out of Ireland, I guess. Whoa, hold on.
Starting point is 00:12:03 That's important to us. Here's what he did. Do you want to know what he did? Yes. Three biggies. Number one, converted pagans. That's huge. OK, number two, what Catholicism converted Irish Celtic pagans to Christianity. Number two, ministered to Christians.
Starting point is 00:12:20 That's just your bread and butter and your normal stuff. And then he also established churches. Hmm, they're all pretty similar. But what about the snakes? What about the snakes, Jeff? Hmm, nothing about snakes. And what is the drinking? I thought he like was a Pied Piper guy.
Starting point is 00:12:38 I thought he like chased snakes out of it. That's folklore. There's no evidence that snakes ever lived in Ireland. Oh, is that kind of like a joke? Oh, you know what, Jeff? The thing about faith is I don't need evidence. Oh, oh, OK. That's cool. Is that kind of like a joke?
Starting point is 00:12:55 Like there were never snakes in Ireland. Is that the kind of is that a joke that we should have been in on the whole time? The snakes are like evil tempters, like from the Bible. Oh, I never put that together. Good, Jeff. Good on you. Boy, oh, you mean like if they had said like he chased all the tropical mango fruits out of. Yeah, right. Perfect.
Starting point is 00:13:16 Yeah, so did I out of my fucking fridge. You guys have a tough time chasing chasing snakes and old foods out of your fridge? I don't, but I do when I hike in Griffith Park, I see snakes a lot. A lot? I don't, I can't stand it. Seeing snakes, I just can't stand it. You'll hear a rattler. Really?
Starting point is 00:13:39 I don't like that. And when I see a lizard, I text it to Neil Campbell and Dave Ferguson and say, check out this LL because that stands for lizard look. Mike, you're not fond of the Zard, if I remember. Not fond of the Zard or the snake. And the thing is this, and I think I know why I don't like them, because they just kind of pop out of nowhere. Yeah. I don't like walking around and then all of a sudden a leaf, I think I'm going to step on, like shoots out from underneath me.
Starting point is 00:14:08 Yeah, and like you really, I don't know Tim, if you've witnessed, Mike will jump a mile high if you sneak a snake on him. No. I was watching, I was watching. I think you got a phobia, Mike, is what I'm saying. A snake phobia, sure. Mike, I have a jar of peanuts I'd like you to open.
Starting point is 00:14:25 Fine, if it's just peanuts that snakes haven't been eating in. Well, you have a jar of peanuts as well. Continue. I was watching White Lotus, by the way. I'm caught up on Lotus and Severance. Ooh, I am loving being caught up on the current shows. Wow, you guys are like the TV guys. We're like the TV guys. I'm caught up on the current shows. You guys are like the TV guys.
Starting point is 00:14:46 We're like the TV guys. I'm caught up on Severance as well. And Lotus, are you, I did my Lotus's last night. I love Lotus, but I'm a little bit behind, but let me tell you, Mike, I don't know if you noticed anyone in anything odd in your Apple TV Plus app, but when I started catching up on Severance,
Starting point is 00:15:07 I didn't realize I was still logged into your account for a while, so if you were seeing, hey, who watched the Severance that I haven't watched? What the hell is your little buddy Tim? Who keeps watching the first episode of Severance? I don't understand it. No, but there's a scene in the new White Lotus
Starting point is 00:15:25 where they go into a snake zoo or snake show, they call it. And I kind of didn't look at the TV. I didn't want to watch those snakes slithering this way and that. Oh, and that, I mean, I assume they slithered this way. Yeah, yeah. I had a dream when I was a wee boy, back in Ireland. No, when I was back just as a boy,
Starting point is 00:15:49 that I just couldn't shake this feeling a snake was coming into my room. And it was like one of these like waking dreams where you're kind of, you think you're awake and it's really real and it's like all very plain. Like the dream was just me in my bed and I kept looking down at the end of my bed and a snake was like, it's like he was going to get in or not.
Starting point is 00:16:07 That's like scary sleep paralysis. That's like, yeah. Yeah. Is it this, it's the slitheriness that the, and the squiggles that get you not as much the bitey-ness. I guess so. I guess it's sort of the menacing attitude. I imagine too.
Starting point is 00:16:20 It's just the attitude of like, I'm not supposed to be in here, but guess what? I'm sliding right through the door. Yeah. He's an invader. You see? That makes, that's a pretty common fear. Jeff, do you have any, are you a spiders or heights or got anything? I don't like spiders and I, I don't like heights,
Starting point is 00:16:36 but it's more like, I think that's rational. Sure. I'm afraid of falling to my death, which you should all. Yeah. No one likes falling from heights, but merely being up at them. Yeah. I had a snake story. I went to Disneyland or no, no, World in Florida.
Starting point is 00:16:53 And I got in Disney somewhere, maybe Epcot, like a big rubber snake, like a four foot long black with stripes rubber snake. And I thought it was like the funniest coolest thing and and then around the hotel where we were staying I kind of wrapped it around a bush outside somebody else's room and sure enough the the door opened and a lady walked out with stuff for a car screamed ran inside and shut the door and started screaming to her husband and I gathered up the snake and ran.
Starting point is 00:17:29 Damn, you were Dennis the Menace out there. It was the most effective, like, it would be funny if someone saw this. And then within five seconds was like, oh, it worked quick. Better get out of here. It worked. It worked. You know, it's a new kind of phobia, as type thing I got creeping up. It's slowly developing here in the second half of my life.
Starting point is 00:17:47 Well, I've talked before about my handful of claustrophobic freakouts, and I think that this is related. I was a few years ago, I was driving on the Golden Gate Bridge, and I kind of thought, what movies it were Christopher Walken said, like, if you just jerk the wheel, I don't know, just the concept of like when you're driving on a bridge and it's a lot, I was driving on the Golden Gate Bridge and it was just a long drive and I was like,
Starting point is 00:18:14 kind of a long bridge. I think if I were to crash on this bridge, like that would be really, really bad. And I felt myself start to get a little sweaty while I was driving across the Golden Gate Bridge, and then ever since then, I've just sort of been like, if it's a real long bridge, like there's like a Chesapeake Bay one like that, where you're like, hm, kind of a long bridge.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Interesting. Tim, you got a fear of stuck. Stuck, but what's funny is, this one is not like, it's just a little bit of sweat, so it it's not like a full on phobia yet, but when we were on tour, when I was driving the van through to Minnesota from Wisconsin, there was one bridge that was kind of long and like,
Starting point is 00:18:57 it was funny because it was the three of us were talking and I don't think you noticed, but Tim was kind of a little bit quiet. Just us going over that. Yeah, just gonna make it over this bridge. Just kind of saying, yeah. Yeah, but Tim was kind of a little bit quiet. You're going over that. Yeah, just going to make it over this bridge. Just kind of saying, yeah, yeah. But if you're stuck, you'd be with two great guys. It's it's it's it's more of this stuck and then fall off.
Starting point is 00:19:13 You're stuck in the other cars coming. They smash you and you fall off or something. Stuck equals death, Mike. That's the scary part. That's so funny, because when we when we go over bridges, if I'm driving or not, each time I'm like, ooh, what river is this? Look, ooh, look at that.
Starting point is 00:19:28 Let's take it nice and slow. I've now realized I was getting a lot of oohs and ahs from Jeff and nothing from Tim. Well, if I can look, it's something about me being the driver because it happened, like in New York, if I'm of Verrazano, George Washington, Tappan Z, Kingston, Ryan Cliff, if I want to enjoy the view, I look over the side, oh, that's a nice river.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Hehehe. Brrrrr. Hehehe. Damn. We'll try to avoid bridges from now on, Tim, but. Tunnels from now on, Tim, tunnels. Yeah. We tell our touring agent, they were like,
Starting point is 00:20:05 just don't book us into those towns where there are bridges on the way there, please. Well, you don't you don't have it with tunnels. Pittsburgh is like Tunnel City. It's like a bridge city. It's like there's like 200 bridges around there. Those are those are kind of short, though, so it doesn't bother me. Tunnels. I don't get claustrophobic,
Starting point is 00:20:23 but I have been in like the Holland tunnel, Lincoln tunnel, or like when you're going to like Logan Airport. Sometimes if you're in bumper to bumper gridlock underground, you're kind of like, geez, I'm under a fucking river. I don't like when you have to change lanes and stuff under in like I like a tunnel. If it's just like you're in one lane and then you're out. But in in Boston, yeah, I think to get to Logan, you go.
Starting point is 00:20:47 You got to change lanes. You got an off ramp and stuff. Yeah. Whoo. It's crazy down there. We should watch the movie Daylight with Sylvester Stallone. Is that tunnel-y? I saw it in the theater.
Starting point is 00:21:00 It's a tunnel. They're stuck in a tunnel, and they got to get out of the tunnel. Ooh, Descent. Do you ever see Descent? Descent is a scary one. It's a tunnel. They're stuck in a tunnel, and they got to get out of the tunnel. Ooh, descent. Do you ever see descent? Descent is a scary one. It's a horror movie. It's a straight horror movie, right?
Starting point is 00:21:10 Yeah, it's like a bunch of women, I think specifically women, who go on a caving thing. Yeah, and get stuck. But there's some real claustrophobic looks in there. Yeah, and there's a little creepy freaks down there, too. There's creepy freaks. I might watch that tonight. Ooh, scary stuff. There's a little creepy freaks down there too. There's creepy freaks? I might watch that tonight. Ooh.
Starting point is 00:21:25 Ooh. Scary stuff. I think we're still also in booze news to be honest with you. Oh shit. Wrap it up. Well, we're wrapping up booze news. Perfect. Oh, perfect. That's it for booze news.
Starting point is 00:21:51 What was that, Jeff? What was what? Those are the end of business. I don't know. What was that sound effect? The fart. A seagull. Oh, the guy was like, oh, he said something. Oh, perfect.
Starting point is 00:22:06 Yeah, what's that? Street Fighter II. I thought so. I remember a Hadouken. I don't remember, perfect. Well, it's because you never 100%ed anyone, Tim. Fuck! Oh my God, I'm posting my L's here today, man.
Starting point is 00:22:24 Did Street Fighter II have a Mortal Kombat style finish him situation where the guys stand in there all wobbly and could do some fucked up? No, that's quite unique to Mortal Kombat there, T. Quite unique indeed. Street Fighter 2 had a they had a nice version was like, help him. Defibrillate him. Your friend is woozy.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Relive him. The guy you've been beating up this whole time. You guys are friends, right? Well, happy St. Patrick's Day, guys. Right back at you. My man. Well, of course, on St. Patrick's Day, someone's got to talk about the drink of the day, don't they? OK, I've got it.
Starting point is 00:23:02 The drink of the day. The baby Guinness you've had. Never heard. You've heard. No, not even heard. I had not either, but this is very fun. There is a iconic long time slophead on our Instagram named Heather,
Starting point is 00:23:22 who's a bartender in London. And she sent us booze news over the years and stuff. And then sort of recently, she mentioned that she was tending bar in London. And I said, ooh, is there anything going on there that we don't have here that's big? And she was like, baby Guinness, like, this is very, very popular here.
Starting point is 00:23:40 You sure she wasn't saying baby comma Guinness? Like baby Guinness. Baby Guinness. Baby Guinness, baby Guinness She said, you know, and it kind of fits we've been talking shooters the kind of slow creep back of This one's not a shaken one but you know the green tea shot has ushered back in and We got to do at some point maybe this summer we do the surfer on acid and we had, but we did. We did the Washington Apple in Seattle.
Starting point is 00:24:11 We've been to an entire shot bar in Austin. Yes. Oh, yeah. That's all they do, folks. Hold on. I'm looking up surfer on acid shop because it comes up a lot. And I want to know. I want to know what's in this. I think it's OJ and Jaeger or pineapple juice and Jaeger, Jaeger, coconut rum, pineapple juice, pineapple wedge.
Starting point is 00:24:35 That's going to be a fun one. I think I had one once and I think it was weirdly like. It just felt like some rather than Jaeger dominating. It was like, OK, there's something going on here. Did we do that with Ben, Tim? I remember we got like some weird shot as like a batch and we all just sort of sipped it. Yes, in Pittsburgh, you're right.
Starting point is 00:24:53 That was a Jax. Jax. Okay, so once Slophead Heather tipped me off, I looked into it and I found that this drink goes back to the 1980s at a pub in Dublin called the Waxy's Dargel. They're looking this up. Waxy's Dargel. W-A-X-I-E-S.
Starting point is 00:25:18 I'm not seeing a posture, it's almost like plural wax. I don't know who Waxy is, I don't know what the Dargol is either. I'm kind of in the fucking. I'll see if I can find it. It's also a Pogue song. Oh, the Pogues rule. Oh, Waxie Dargol doy.
Starting point is 00:25:36 The Waxie Dargol Viggie. At the end of this episode, we should play Armageddon by the Sloppy Boys. Oh, that's a good idea. Oh, that's sort of got an Irish tinge. Does it not? Anyway, back in the 80s in Dublin at the Waxy's Dargol, the owner, Stephen Daly, he made his own coffee liqueur. And so for this drink, when we get into it,
Starting point is 00:25:59 it doesn't have to be Kahlua. Jeff, have you got some of that Mr. Black around or any other coffee liqueurs? Mr. Black. There you go. Check that Mr. Black around or any of the coffee liqueurs? Mr. Black. There you go. Check it out. Beautiful bottle. So, the funny thing about this pub is it was right next
Starting point is 00:26:13 to a hospital, the Rotunda Hospital, and lots of new fathers, after their babies were born, would go celebrate, you know, like you're smoking the It's a Boy cigars and you go into this pub next door and you get drunk and Stephen Daly thought it would be funny, like, oh, you just had a baby, he invented this drink and he would give it to him, here's a free shot, it's a baby Guinness.
Starting point is 00:26:36 And once that became known as like the new fathers get this for free, then the nurses at the hospital started telling in like the delivery room, be like, oh, you gotta head down to get your for free. Then the nurses at the hospital started telling in like the delivery room, be like, oh, you gotta head down to get your free drink. Waxie's Dargol. So it made it like a whole big tradition. I don't know if Waxie's Dargol is still doing that next to the Rotunda Hospital.
Starting point is 00:26:56 I'm sure the new moms loved that. Yeah. The baby is born and the nurses are like, you gotta go, dad, dad, you gotta go get a drink. The baby just popped out. Dad, you gotta go, dad. Dad, you gotta go get a drink. The baby Jones popped out. Dad, go, go, go. That is so funny. Like, growing up watching old cartoons,
Starting point is 00:27:11 any time a baby is like, guys would show up with cigars and stuff, it's like, we're out of the process. We're in a different room. We're all drunk and high. You're like off track bedding. Mom has bloodshot eyes. Yeah. So that's how it started. Mom has bloodshot eyes. Yeah. So that's how it started. And then people just liked the shot
Starting point is 00:27:29 and thought it would look funny because he was making this shot that looks like a little baby Guinness. And it spread as a novelty shot. It spread throughout the UK. And now it's just sort of like a stunty shooter that you do with the gang. And Travis Kelsey haters cover your ears,
Starting point is 00:27:47 but recently Travis Kelsey was in Dublin to see Taylor do the- Splits. Eras tour. And he had one at a pub and he loved it. And he said it's his favorite shot. So it's kind of had a little resurgence recently because of that.
Starting point is 00:28:01 Okay. Yeah, I was wondering if it was going to be a shot or if it's just or you're supposed to nurse it like a giant. It's a shot because I think if you nurse that you would just drink the top half for a while and then so bad. But now everyone's familiar with the Giants golf ball and the Giants cigarette, as I explained in our live episodes.
Starting point is 00:28:20 If you have go back to the Philly episode, I think if you want to hear about that. Oh, Michael, whip smart knowledge about sloppy boys. I am now the memory man. Okay, so here's a recipe from Wikipedia. Everyone's kind of making it the same. When Slophead Heather was telling me about it, she said that these, like a big group of people will order these.
Starting point is 00:28:43 It's like Saturday night and say, hey, we're having 10, and she said she doesn't mind making them because they're delicious and they're funny and stuff, but you have to spoon. It's annoying for a bartender because you got to do a tray of them and you're spooning each one in a busy shift. That sucks. I'm not good at this spooning thing.
Starting point is 00:28:59 Me neither. Imagine doing it for like a whole bar at the end of the night. Yikes. Wikipedia says, three-quarter shot of coffee liqueur. Now that's three parts. So I guess we're talking quarter parts.
Starting point is 00:29:14 And then one-quarter shot, one part, Irish cream. Okay, so we're taking the three to one coffee liqueur and Irish cream. Very popular choices would be Kahlua and Bailey's, but there's other stuff out there. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. And the method, simply float Irish cream on top of coffee.
Starting point is 00:29:36 Oh, simply? Oh, simply. Yeah. So we're gonna use like an upside down spoon to do that. Oh, so gingerly indeed. I'm gonna be putting mine, I don't have a shot glass that has a good view of it, but I'm gonna get like a more of a shorter coupe glass,
Starting point is 00:29:53 cocktail glass, I mean, not a coupe. Okay, old fashioned glass. Why don't you do it with a pint glass, like a full size Guinness. That's gonna be a lot of Kahlua to drink, I think. So yeah, you do want that ratio is gonna make it look so it's like more of the black stuff and a little bit of the froth up top.
Starting point is 00:30:10 Jeff, I have what you have, Jeff, a normal shot glass. And one little note here, variations. Some people do this with black sambuca instead of coffee liqueur. That sounds worse because like sambuca is a black licorice you taste. Yeah, that's not right. I would not do that.
Starting point is 00:30:26 Damn, I want to. I want to let's cook it up. You ready? Oh, wait, but we should do it live on pod. Yes. Yeah. So let's go get our bottles. We'll take a break. We'll come back with our bottles and we'll do the live pour and we'll see you can kind of pull off this look. Guys, bottles and spoons, too.
Starting point is 00:30:42 I'm probably some. Oh, get some. oh, get something, a towel, paper towel. All right, folks, we'll be right back with more Sloppy Boys after this. And we're back. Ingredients in hand for baby Guinness. And we're back. Ingredients in hand for baby Guinness.
Starting point is 00:31:09 Kalu and Bailey's for me. Old classics, which I already had on hand. I love that. Isn't that great? A no shopper. The best. I didn't have Bailey's, but I went out and got some and I smartly got like this tiny size.
Starting point is 00:31:23 Yes. Not a nip, but just like, I don't need a whole one of these floating around my house again. No, it's a thing that stresses you out. I didn't know though, I think we recently talked about how these are good for two years, which is shocking. Yeah. Refrigerated or not, open or not, two years.
Starting point is 00:31:40 What are we doing here? We're doing a, this is three to one? Basically three quarters of the way with your coffee liqueur and then with a little spoon dribble. Some people, if they really want the froth to be frothy, they'll shake, I wish mine was cold, that would've been good. But if you shake the Baileys, then it gets more frothy. But I'm gonna shake.
Starting point is 00:32:02 I'm not gonna do that. I'm doing the pour. I'm doing upside down spoon. Oh, does it work? Oh, I hope so. Right next to my laptop. Very scary. Hey, no risk, no reward. Nice. Um, it kind of worked. Oh, I love both these flavors.
Starting point is 00:32:21 This is scary. Oh, no, my shit went right down. Oh, it went to the bottom and then floated back up. It's similar to breaking a yolk in like an egg. Like you only have one shot at this. Oh, fuck. All right. I did all right. This is not a shot glass. This is kind of a big.
Starting point is 00:32:38 Oh, let me snap a selfie of the boys with their fucking. Things the boys with their fucking things. The boys with their toys. Hey, pretty good. Happy St. Patrick's Day. Wait, wait, wait, Timmy, that's no good. This will be better. Happy St. Patrick's Day.
Starting point is 00:32:59 Oh, good. Very good. OK, cool. I'm doing mine. Very good. OK, cool. I'm doing mine. Sips. Here we go. I'm shooting it. Shoots. Yep. Shoots.
Starting point is 00:33:11 Here we go. See you. Bottoms up. Blarney's doing to you all. Delicious. Oh, wow. Yep. Damn. That's good. Tasting like a white Russian. Do you think we're going to be seeing a bunch of these this year? Like, I feel like these would be so easy to do at like.
Starting point is 00:33:33 I don't want to doxx us where we're going, probably. Yeah. But we're going to be in my private home. But your bar, she should have a party in your bar tonight. You know, the bar is Kelpie's hideaway. Mick Kelpie's, um, The tiger room. Did they do that? The tiger, the tiger room is not participating this year, but the,
Starting point is 00:33:54 the main room will. Um, yeah, I do think it's hard to kiss once. If you've had too much beer and you're, you've had too much Guinness and harp and whatever, and then you're like, I guess I'll just have Irish whiskey. And of course people do in the, what do we call it? The Guinness Bomb, which this sort of tastes like because of the old Bailey's effect. But I think that this is, I think you're right, Jay.
Starting point is 00:34:18 I think this is poised for, it's already huge in the UK. So I think it's poised for some manifest destiny westward expansion. Oh wow. And like, it's not that crazy either. Like, my Mr. Black is 25%, so 50 proof. And then your cap in it with, you know, the Irish cream is, oh, 17. But still, that's a- 17. And you could do like a ton of these. You and your boys. Do them all night. You know what? I've got an idea already for round two Michael your mind is on fire with ideas at all times. I know I know I know it's just like
Starting point is 00:34:56 too fast sometimes I'm gonna do I'm gonna do an ounce of Bailey's no half ounce Bailey's half's, half ounce whiskey. Yeah, I do feel like kick it up. Give it a little more of a ping. Cause I think drinking another one of these, it's like so sugary and so a deserty that I'm not in the mood for that right now. Yeah. Did you do Kahlua?
Starting point is 00:35:21 Yeah, Kahlua and Bailey. And the Kahlua is really just there for the dark color. That's why they also like sometimes swap it out for black sambuca or whatever. So I think as long as you're getting, we don't need a coffee taste present in our baby Guinness. So if you just have enough of it to make it dark and then put Jamis in the rest of the way.
Starting point is 00:35:40 Yeah. That'll give you that sweet sting you want. You might be onto something. I will say that Mr. Black is a king move on this. This is great. I don't know what you guys are tasting. Actually, I might have Kahlua, so I might try that for round two. But it feels like Kahlua plus Bailey's would be a little too sicky sweet. I think that Mr.
Starting point is 00:35:59 Black is kind of the cool choice at like if you're at an upscale bar, they don't use Kahlua. They use that when you get an espresso martini. It's a very cool slick, sleek looking bottle here. Yeah. Oh yeah, it's cool. But Jeff, remember when we were at the Charleston Airport when we were at?
Starting point is 00:36:16 Yes. Perplexingly the second location of Desano's. Desano's Pizza. One in Hollywood and one in the Charleston Airport. Perplexingly. You got an espresso martini. Well, I think I got one as well, in fact. And the guy was using, who knew?
Starting point is 00:36:34 Hiram Walker. Finest Call. That iconic cheap mixer brand with the top that you know and stuff. They had an espresso martini mix and then we had said like, well we're looking to wake up, do you know if that has caffeine and he was like, it doesn't have caffeine but I can go get you some espresso from Dunkin' Donuts and we're like, thanks.
Starting point is 00:36:53 But then in the meantime I looked it up and. And it does. It does have caffeine and also I thought it would be a new product because of the espresso martini craze. Nope, Finest Call has always made espresso martini mix since the 90s. Just losing money. Just nobody buying it, dumping old product.
Starting point is 00:37:12 Just losing money. Just filling up landfill after landfill. With full bottles, people aren't buying anything. At least dump the liquid in the ocean. I just took a sip of I accidentally I was building my second drink and actually put my Baileys in first. It was too much. So I took just a shot, a little mini shot of Bailey's.
Starting point is 00:37:34 That is some sweet ass stuff. Yeah, dude. I don't know if I love it. I like incorporating it in drinks and even like put it in a little coffee sometimes if I'm being super nasty. Yeah. But I went to Tim Hortons once when we were touring and they had like a Bailey's coffee special. And I said, yeah, give me that Bailey special. And in that also, I was like, it's too much Bailey's and it was alcoholic Bailey's.
Starting point is 00:37:59 It wasn't like, no, no, there was no, not at the Tim Hortons, but I was like, but that was like a Bay ass coffee, right? Like they really coffee-mated it. And I was sort of like, oh, maybe I kind of only like this when it's accompanied with alcohol. If it's just the Sikki Sweet, it's too creamer. It feels like drinking creamer, more creamer. It's like coffee mate or something.
Starting point is 00:38:19 Yeah. But I do think whiskey is going to make this nice and. Frisky? Oh, you know, being a frisky, you know, be nice is making a Guinness bomb with a baby Guinness. So you're dropping. Oh, I like that. Yeah. So you're not getting the whiskey. It's funny. You're dropping a little Guinness into a big Guinness. Yeah, it's funny.
Starting point is 00:38:39 It's like saying, hey, baby, go back to mama. Oh, shit. It is like saying that it is like saying that it's like saying, baby, go back to my. I'm with you on that. Bailey's is a weird flavor to ever have straight, but it's kind of perfect in the bomb because there's only a half shot of it and you're drinking a bunch of liquid really fast and it's curdling and you got to go, go, go. I love that drink. I might.
Starting point is 00:39:04 What do you guys think about a second round? I might get that going. Me too. I'm going to do half this Mr. Black and yeah, a little whiskey. I think you're right, Mike. OK, I'm going to grab. We can do it all on. Let me just grab my whiskey.
Starting point is 00:39:14 But we can do it all here. Let's take a break. Let's take a break. Let's take a little break, though, for the audience. Right. Let's go get our whiskies. I'll do it, too. All right, folks.
Starting point is 00:39:23 We'll be right back with more sloppy boys after this. Building round two. I'm going to be precise on this one. The size. I just did something nasty where I were recording early today and I realized I hadn't eaten any food and I was like, can I have two shots and I'm just open the fridge. No food. Open the cabinet.
Starting point is 00:39:58 No food. You know what I had to eat? What a big pickle, a big nasty. Oh, I like this pickle. That's good. That's not like food. That's going to soak up booze. What a big pickle a big nasty That's not like food that's gonna soak up booze that's just adding a vinegar element to the cream I Looked this up. Yeah, I had two types of whiskey. I had a bourbon whiskey and rye whiskey and I I went on Google and said is what which one's closer to Irish whiskey? That's a the AI overview which I think, I'll read this here, but AI I think needs to get
Starting point is 00:40:27 a little more dialed in. Irish whiskey is closer to rye whiskey than bourbon because both are known for their distinct flavor profiles. Now that doesn't make any, that doesn't mean anything. Okay, different flavor profiles, but they're each known for it, so it's similar. I think every drink is known for its flavor profile. That is a worthless explanation.
Starting point is 00:40:48 But yeah, I think that like Irish whiskey doesn't have the dark, sweet woodiness of a bourbon to me. Yeah, dark, sweet woodiness. All right. Here comes my little poor. Oh, the whiskey didn't work because the cream falls to the bottom. Yeah, that's what I'm. Oh, you did just whiskey? I did a split.
Starting point is 00:41:06 I split, but still, maybe my split wasn't split enough and now it's. Oh. Yeah, I got a feeling mine's gonna do that too. Looks like a latte. Well, hold on, what are we learning from this? That whiskey is less dense than coffee liqueur? Yes, I could have told you that.
Starting point is 00:41:23 I'm just telling the listener. You should have. No, I don't told you that. I'm just telling the listener. You should have. No, I don't know what's going on. I actually don't know what's going on. Yeah, this looks like a little bit of a mess, but I'm going to go for it. Yeah, let's do it. Ready? Here we go. Bottoms up.
Starting point is 00:41:41 Balls here. Oh, the taste is there. Woohoo. Yeah, the taste is there. Woohoo. Yeah, it makes you feel like you're earning that Bailey's. That's a little yeah, that's a little more of a traditional shot in the sense that you're kind of like, oh, that's a little tough. Yeah, you're not just having like a kid's dessert.
Starting point is 00:41:58 Not a fun chance. Also, we should say, don't be serving this or building these for kids. They're not allowed to drink these, even though their former version of themself is in the title of the drink. They're more recent. It's a former version of all of us, but for them it's their recent version.
Starting point is 00:42:20 Yeah, you don't want to be so recently a baby to drink this, you can't be. If you're a recent baby, you can't want to be so recently a baby to drink this you can't be if you're a recent baby You can't have it if you're if you're a more than 21 years recently a baby or less than 21 years recently a baby You probably can't drink this. Sorry. You can have been a baby, but it has to have been long ago Sure, and you can drink all the ingredients separately Mm-hmm, but you can't put them together. You know what this looks like is a black and tan to me. Yeah. Yeah. That's a fun.
Starting point is 00:42:49 Oh, with the whiskey. Yeah. Baby black and tan. Also you could do a non-alcoholic version of this with coffee. If your friend doesn't drink, give them a little baby shot glass with some coffee and whipped cream on top or oat milk on top. But I mean, this Bailey's is so light that like, even if they don't drink, just use Bailey's.
Starting point is 00:43:11 I'm sure they'll appreciate that. They're like, oh, this tastes like it's liquor. Well, it does. Well, how much? Oh, only 17 percent. That's fine for me. I don't drink. That's fine. That's good. That's fine for me. Hmm. What are you, Mike, do you have any,
Starting point is 00:43:30 don't say the place and then get killed by all your many fans, but do you have St. Patrick's Day plans out there on the East Coast? I don't have anything figured out yet. Like I don't have any like big party or anything this year. Not that I usually do, but anytime I've done, usually my St.
Starting point is 00:43:47 Patrick's days in New York have been like day of seeing who's around and kind of just starting a little early and going to a pub and trying to work your way into the vibe a little bit and then being like, Oh, these people have been doing it for longer than I have. I got to go home. Do you have any go tos though, like Like the Irish pubs around that you're marker? No. There is one by you.
Starting point is 00:44:09 I've been to it. What the fuck is it called? An Irish pub? Yeah. It's fun to just find kind of an off-brand one rather than go into the epicenter of like the one that everyone wants to go to. If you're like, just go to kind of a silly one.
Starting point is 00:44:22 You know what I've never done? And I kind of like going out on St. Patrick's Day just to see the vibe and it's annoying and stuff that a lot of people just are drunk and wild, but you know, it's fun to see. And there's something that happens here in December called SantaCon. Have you heard of this?
Starting point is 00:44:37 I've heard of that, yeah. Everyone dresses as Santa Clauses or Grinches or whatever else and run around New York and like it's a crazy event and there's always fights and stuff but I've never been to it. I want to just like walk around the What was the news story with it this year? There was a whole Santa con thing. We're all laughing at it for a couple of days. Oh, I don't remember. Let's check. Take a look. Don't maybe the actual Santa Claus clad up showed up. Oh, oh, huh. Santa Claus came.
Starting point is 00:45:06 You know what I don't get? I don't get those like look alike contests that have become like Oh, shallow and I feel like look alike contests are the new like flash mob. It's like, oh, we're doing a shallow may look alike contest. Oh, we're doing a Shrek. Agreed. Look like contest sounds like something from like the 80s, like a Madonna lookalike contest. And they're just back.
Starting point is 00:45:29 And you know why, Jeff? They're back because we live in a social media society. So there is much to be gained by looking like Timothee Shalhoub. There's much to be gained by looking like Zayn. You gotta ask yourself, who benefits? I saw, let's see, I saw ads for Drake one recently. I saw Zane and Chalamet was the first one I heard of.
Starting point is 00:45:51 Didn't that one get a lot of news because he showed up? You never know. There were so many people there who looked like him. That's what happens to me. I try to do a sloppy boy show. I look in the audience. There's Jimmy Tzatziki and all the guys that look like me. Jimmy Tzatziki was out, but we think that wasn't the real Jimmy Tzatziki,
Starting point is 00:46:07 it was somebody else. There was a couple of them. When we played in Atlanta, the original Tim Look Like is actually a guy we had seen at a show in Chicago, and then later we met a guy named Jimmy Tzatziki in Charleston, so we got them confused, but it's of course you're gonna get it.
Starting point is 00:46:25 Well, that's not what it's on, it's driver's license. Gotcha, gotcha. But it's easy to confuse these guys because they have a similar look. Similar swagger, a similar genese. And there's more out there too. I bet you we're going to run into Larry Lamb or Philly Feta. Yeah, Larry Lamb.
Starting point is 00:46:48 What are some other things that Tim eats? Corn on bagel guy. That's gotta be Greek. That's not as much of a Greek thing. That's more of a poor guy who's 22, but. Now do I make up another version of this somehow? Cause round two kind of blew up in our fucking faces. Kind of came and went. What are the options with black drinks?
Starting point is 00:47:10 What else is there? I'm going to do I'm going to do another whiskey. Amaro, maybe not for net, but a sweeter Amaro or for net. And Bailey's maybe they balance each other out. Interesting. Oh, molasses molasses. Jeff Interesting. Ooh, molasses. Molasses, Jeff. It's quite dense, quite dense.
Starting point is 00:47:28 Easy, Jeff, easy, Jeff. Yeah, I think a lot of people are doing molasses now. Black strap indeed. Oh, Farnette. If people, if you've been eating corned beef and cabbage all day and you need to help digesting some Amaro could be kind of good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:44 I'll tell you what I'm doing. I don't have a bar plan, but I do have a corned beef and cabbage plan in that I bought a big thing of corned beef. That's good. Now, are you going to put that in the air fryer? No, this is going to be a boil. It's an all day boil.
Starting point is 00:47:59 Too big a job? Too big a job? I don't know if it's too big a job. It just doesn't have the, it won't have the same like. The distinct quality. Like nasty wetness, greasy. Certain distinction.
Starting point is 00:48:11 Doesn't have that distinction. I don't know if you could do it all and it'd be weird. Those of you listening who don't subscribe to our other show, The Sloppy Boys Blowout, don't know that a few years ago, we did a corned beef and cabbage episode where we each recorded ourselves having a corned beef and cabbage boiled dinner experience. So go to patreon.com slash the Sloppy Boyz and scroll.
Starting point is 00:48:34 But it's only $5 a month for a wealth of laughs. I forget we have so many good episodes. We were out after our show, our New York podcast show that we did at Gramercy. and we went to a bar in the area and I said, we all were having our drinks, I said, hey guys, see across the street that Irish bar, or that Irish bar slash restaurant, that's where I went to do my, that episode.
Starting point is 00:48:58 I got my corn, beef, and cabbage there. That's shocking, that blew me away. He went there to a convenient place. I'll tell you, it was more important to me, I think, because it was my first day at Fallon. I was like, I got to go after this go. So funny to have something dumb like that to do. Reversers. I think it was my first day. And like Jimmy Fallon's trying to meet you and stuff. And you're like, yeah, I got to go. I have to go eat a mostly cabbage, corned beef and cabbage dinner.
Starting point is 00:49:31 Will there be potatoes and corned beef? Yes, of course, but they will be in such small amounts that you would almost say you were ordering a cabbage plate with those on the side. Imperceptible, imperceptible. Now, this restaurant was right across the street from a bar We just went to recently after playing the Gramercy theater. We got junglebirds at
Starting point is 00:49:51 at Appendix ancillary it was no ampersand There you go, right appendix and We said is the kitchen still open they said no the kitchens closed But you could go to the bodega on the corner and get any food you want. So, oh, did we ever.
Starting point is 00:50:09 Did we? I got a big Italian sub for the table. Jeff got mozzarella sticks and a panini. I'll tell you what, I just did another version of this. I did a little bit, I mixed half rye whiskey, half Kahlua. Still just kind of weak. I think the first version is the best. It's delicious, candy.
Starting point is 00:50:30 Yeah, it's good. It's delicious and it makes the cool look. You can't do the cool look with the whiskey. It doesn't work. Mike, is that your final thought? I'll make that my final thought. I think it's an order again for me, the baby Guinness without variations.
Starting point is 00:50:46 Damn. I'm trying to think what you could add. Is there any type of little, a drop of raspberry, Chambord? You know, sort of jelly-ish type of, not jelly, but you know what I mean, like a little syrup or something. Yeah. Something that gives a little red dot on top
Starting point is 00:51:04 and maybe adds to the flavor. You're looking for some twang. I'm still looking for something to kick it up without sacrificing that look. Yeah, that might be tough, Jeff. That might be very tough. Yeah, I'm sorry. I'm with you that I want to I want to make it a little sharper. It's so sweet that I want to kind of you know what I would do, maybe getting like the strongest fucking whiskey in the world and doing what we did. And just doing a little eye dropper. Yeah, like a little eye dropper into the Kahlua so that you don't throw off the, what do you
Starting point is 00:51:34 call the density? I just did a tiny little bit like split base. That's what I did for round two, but I did even less maker's mark. I'm going to see, does she float even less makers mark. I'm gonna see does she float What about some ever clear? Grain alcohol and I talking to under proof eye dropper in your eye Dude, I wonder if it's the higher proof is the issue
Starting point is 00:51:57 You know what I mean? I think it's just a thin density thin density but some some 151 or something Dropped in I like this Amaro idea as well. Okay. I'm trying it and it is plummeting with even just a little bit of And now is it Resurrecting like rates are plummeting. No It is dead and gone Ship it. Hmm. Nothing left to do but shoot this little guy. And shoot it, he did.
Starting point is 00:52:32 Final thoughts to you give them. This is great. I think this is poised to explode. It's cute. People like cute stuff and it's it's sweet. People like sweet stuff. I think you guys are probably thinking, oh, it's a St. Patrick's Day thing. I'm still more about congratulating new fathers with it, but I think it should be enormously popular. Yeah. I don't know what this does to celebrate St. Patrick's converting of Irish pagans,
Starting point is 00:52:59 but I do think it's pretty good just for you and your friends to go have a good time. It's an order and again and again and again. If you try this on Monday, on St. Patrick's Day, you are with friends like, hey, I got a shot idea. This is a nice starter. It's not, especially with a group of people. Yeah, tiptoeing into the day. This is the year.
Starting point is 00:53:21 Not everyone loves shots. Look, this is the year. Yeah, I think a day like St.. Patrick's Day is like we're doing shots and if you don't like shots You're like, okay fine because everyone here is dressing green and they'll pinch the hell out of me if I don't do it but I think we're sort of like I Hadn't heard of this so I'm gonna bet a lot of the listenership has in either And I think it's so delightful to dazzle your friends with just how it looks. Yeah. They're going to know about it next year.
Starting point is 00:53:49 You want to be the guy this year to show your friends this little funny thing. Get on it. Panic and do it now. Do it now. You know what I think also? If you do the spoon thing and really layer it out, that's a thing I think a lot of people, noobs,
Starting point is 00:54:02 in the cocktail world, or just people don't know much, unlike us, you know, in the cocktail war, or just people don't know much unlike us. You would see that and be like, Whoa, I only see that type of thing and like a restaurant. How did you do that? Craft make us ology. Craft makes us all agree. Craft makes us ology. I think that's good.
Starting point is 00:54:21 I also I like the idea of starting with it because maybe you're like me, you do like shots but you live your life Hemingway style where you try to start with your aperitivos before your main events. I'm not going to want to start the morning with a shot of Jameson, but I would start the morning with this sweet low ABV shooter. And morning might even be too early. At least one o'clock in the afternoon, say it for him. Damn.
Starting point is 00:54:46 Damn. No morning's okay. Oh, oh, oh. I like to start early. Last year, we were out during the day and I was a little bit cross-eyed and I think it was our wonderful editor, Milin Patel, who's editing this very episode you're listening to
Starting point is 00:55:07 as we speak. Milan. On a sunny afternoon. Put some echo on this, Milan. Milan Patel. I think it was my first time ever meeting him IRL. Oh, at St. Pat's? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:23 At St. Pat's and I was, uh. Oh yeah. I was a fully cross-eyed guy and as we know, we had him on the show to do the Brass Monkey and he chose it because he doesn't drink. So it was kind of funny to be meeting him and he was stone sober and I was like, Milam, it's great to have you.
Starting point is 00:55:38 You're doing such a good job. How do you do the things that you do? You gotta show me how you do that. You gotta do the Irish jig with me. And also fuck you, I can't even, I fucked you, man. I gotta say, look at this hat I'm wearing. I know it's not good for the listener, but we got some care packages from, where were we?
Starting point is 00:56:05 I think we were in Minnesota and got some little gift bags from a guy at Central Waters Brewing. Oh yes, yeah, that was a good one. And in the gift bag had this little beanie. Now this is like a fashionable beanie. This is a good look for you, Mike. It's a good look for you, Mike. Is it?
Starting point is 00:56:20 I don't know, this is. You're a Carhartt guy, I like it. You look like a local photographer of babes. It's a hip beanie, it's not like a winter hat, which is usually, this is to be worn for fashion, not warmth, you know what I mean? Jeff is right that you're one of these guys, hey, I'm a photographer, did you need to get
Starting point is 00:56:37 some new photos? And you say that to girls, but then you have gross intentions. Yeah, it's just like, I love boudoir type stuff and you'd be good for that. I'm good for taking boudoir photos, but I usually don't develop or get them back to anybody. You know, sometimes you wear a hip or a thing and you're like, this isn't for me.
Starting point is 00:56:58 Now you're not going to see me wearing this much. I don't think this is my look. Wear it. Why not? I wish I did. Maybe I will, maybe I will. Maybe I'll wear it the next show. I think it's 2025, I don't think. This isn't my look. Wear it. Why not? I wish I did. Maybe I will, maybe I will. Maybe I'll wear it the next show. I think it's 2025, wear the hip thing, don't be self-conscious.
Starting point is 00:57:10 There's no reason to say, oh, should I be most modest indeed? No, go out there and peacock and live your life. Peacock with this army green hat on? I need something bright. Yes. Twisted Metal Season Two coming to Peacock this summer. That's right.
Starting point is 00:57:27 And what else I'm going to do, I'm going to try, I'm still looking for a zip up onesie cover all for my new band outfit. Ooh, I like that. That's a good time to be buying those because I feel like they were a big trend that's waning and people are probably bringing them to Goodwill right now. Don't say that to him. No, no, but they're about to bounce back, you're saying. Well, I mean, they were a big trend that's waning and people are probably bringing them to goodwill right now. Don't say that to him.
Starting point is 00:57:45 No, no, but they're about to bounce back, you're saying. Well, I mean, they were big with ladies, so you could get like a pink one. Ooh, pink overall coveralls. God. Go ahead, Jeff. That's our show. Follow us on social media at The Sloppy Boys
