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. Hi, Jeff. And Tim Kalpakis. What is up? And we're your hosts The Sloppy Boys. I was trying to do my Jeff Goldblum

impression. You did it. You nailed it. I knew. I knew. Hi Jeff. Yes, yes. Yeah, you do a better one. Well, it's because we're both named Jeff. Oh, that's so easy. You're halfway there. Yeah. If only it was Michael Goldael goldblum oh that would be then i would have that few seconds

that were spot on just the beginning of this pod well i hesitated because i was gonna i wanted to come in with some fun kind of like margie margie party. And then I didn't have it. What's Margie, Margie, party, party? I was going to be like, Margie, Margie, it's time to party. Oh, margarita. I see. I see. A good one today. An actual good drink, finally.

That's true. That would. Well, OK. Interesting. Oh, Michael. Let's get into some booze news. Hit it. Booze News.

Hit it. Booze News. Booze News. Booze News. It's booze news, you weird little asshole. That theme song was sent to us by the ghost of Craig T. Nelson on Instagram. He does a lot of cool Photoshop work. That's Zach Mack and his slobby brother, Dan Mack. Oh, wait.

Yes, he does some really cool Photoshop stuff for us. We reposted it. It's so funny all the time. That was a good one. Yeah, it was really good. That was the Kings of Leon. The Southern Strokes, I call them. Kings of Leon. I gotta use some butter.

Booze News news folks. Yeah. Um, usually booze news is typically just something ripped from the headlines has nothing to do with the cocktail of the week. It's usually snooze news to be honest. Yeah. It's snooze.

We hate it. The listeners don't like it. The listeners don't like it other than the theme songs that they write in. They wonder why it's seltzer half the time. Uh huh. It's kind of become known as the skippable segment. You know, hey, everyone, skip ahead. We'll see you in an hour. But this week, this is

fate, guys, because there was something that's been clicking around the old social media cocktail accounts recently that came to my attention. An article recently on Urban Daddy. um this rocks the cocktail world and our friend amin zaroukian brought it to my attention right on hey you know him from don't stop or we'll die of course this is the talk of the net paul mccartney's margarita recipe oh

yes oh this has come up before has it not on the show forget i said anything on the show what podcast have you been doing jeff when he flies on private jets going out of van nye's all of the pilots know about the the special recipe for margaritas that you have to have if sir paul is on your plane and you probably know he probably tells you yeah absolutely you know who i am you know what i played for you know you got to have a little triple sec you do not far off listen to this this i caught my attention because it's weird right uh three shots of tequila okay nice normal double already juice from one lime okay sure the juice of one lime for the beetle okay sounds like a witch recipe so far hold on to your butts juice from one orange uh okay now here's where things get full on twisted one shot of quantro and one shot of triple sec baby what so

we've determined in the past that quantro is like triple sec but it's 80 proof it's the original triple sec it's a brand name that started triple sec triple sec means triple orange oil and sec sweet i think is uh seconds dry oh okay sec is singular for sex so if it's going to be multiple pumps it's sex but if it's just one pump one sec one sec nasty shake with uh two or three small ice cubes uh until it the drink turns frothy pour into a glass with salted rim. So there's no ice. It's a big frothy thing. But that's, I wanted to bring up this

Cointreau triple sec thing. He's, I guess what we're learning from this booze news is that Paul McCartney is a bit of a fool. Two ingredients that are the same thing. One is sweeter. Maybe just because of the less alcohol.

But I wonder if they have different flavors just because one is stronger. Did we ever do a back-to-back tasty? I have on my own time. Well, I would love for you to share it with us. Don't just do that alone all the time. See, Tim, here's what rubs me the wrong way about Sir Paul. Is two or three small ice cubes, they're going to evaporate. They're going to be done by the time you're done shaking it.

Shake with only two or three. Oh boy, no, no. You want more ice than you think you need. Yes. Learn that. Yeah. From the top of the top. Here's the weird thing. It says two or three hot ice cubes. Oh my God. Oh. Paul. I see. So wait. So this

orange is like he's doing this in place of the triple sec or he's doing triple sec too, but isn't triple sec already orangey? Yeah. Yes. I'm looking at my bottle. It's got an orange on it. And Quantro.

Yes. And orange. It's triple oranged up. So, you know, the guy has, you know, basically a sweet citrus brain. He's got a vitamin C deficiency problem and he won't. He's a big rock and roll guy and he won't come out and say it. He wants to hide behind this thing. I think it's sick.

But here's the thing, guys. I think we should, you know, do this episode. We'll have a good time. This will be a good episode. Yes, we're going to do great. I'm on board for that, yeah. Also, we already did the Hemingway daiquiri. Why don't we do the Sipol Marg?

Oh. Yeah, that would be fun to do like a, why am I always trying to pitch these months? Do a month of famous... We barely hit an hour every week on here. I want to do Vermouth month.

Now I want to do Celebrity Drink month. You're very month oriented in your projects. I've definitely noticed that. We should be looking into celebrity branded, like mixes. Like, uh,

doesn't Sammy Hagar do a bunch of shit? Oh yeah. That's a great idea. And then you got, Guy Fieri has something. He must, Jimmy Buffett's got to do something. Clooney tequila.

No. Oh, Clooney tequila. What? Casa Miguel. Ryan Reynolds has a tequila. God, geez,

we should do, we should have a mix. Uh, the problem, we, the reason we don't have a tequila yet, we don't have the agave. Once you get the agave.

No, we don't. That's the problem. You mix it up and you boil it into tequila. Huh. Well, that's a good booze news that the rocker is still doing stuff. Yeah, so that's it. That's it for the booze news. You got anything? I got a little bit of

booze news on my end. This isn't booze news. This is more of a I can see ya. It comes from what I was talking about last episode where I said what am I, some sort of

getting a bad rep on the Discord? Because you make the drinks wrong. I guess I make the drinks wrong. And look, I tiptoe around the Discord. I pop in every once in a while and write something. I don't know if people are responding to it. Who knows? But I went on there and yeah, it seems like my reputation is, you know, that guy, I'll never get it right. I really wish he'd take it more seriously. I think this, I forget what drink this was about.

Here's something. I made a Hanford-esque error with my bee's knees. Oh, Hanford-esque. Hanford-esque. You're an adjective, dude. Great. Somebody's unhappy that I was making Irish coffee with that instant coffee. Well, I explained why I did that on the fucking time we did that episode.

Yeah. So here's the bottom line. You want to talk shit about me on the Discord, guess what? I won't go on the Discord anymore. I won't go on there once a month for one minute. Yeah, to see if anyone is bad-mouthing me. No, come on, Mike. What do you got to say to those people?

No, I get it. I'm having fun with it. It's sort of the character I play, the doofus, the dummy, the guy who doesn't get it right. You know what I mean? Yeah, is it hard for you to get into that character? You use as ashy glasses and ashy liquors. Yeah, ashy glasses, and I used maraschino oh my god

oh let's take them down a peg on the discord mike you have sort of you've studied clowning and you've studied farce and when we start rolling on this pot every week you kind of get into character right as a a bit of a fool we should we should read yeah a bit of a fool we should re uh release some of the stuff before we start like actually okay we're gonna start the podcast you know just like hi guys how are you cool so cool stuff all set yeah um okay if we're gonna start let me just hi elroy wally let me tone that down just a little bit. You know, it's that type of thing. It's a process.

I feel like I'm watching one of those Hollywood Reporter Actors Roundtables. It's so awesome. Yeah. How did you do your thing? Oh, you did it that way? I did it this way. Isn't that so interesting?

I wish we could all win. This is great behind the veil like this. We should do a Hollywood roundtable. Three of us? I mean, go to a real one and sit in as ourselves. And the three of us all just have the exact same thing to share. Yeah, that's actually the exact thing that I do as well. So yeah, pass.

You talk and then me and Jeff both say pass. Pass, pass, pass. You don't see a lot of that in the award season roundtables and events. You don't hear a lot of pass. Pass, I'm tired of this shit. Okay, that's my little booze news. And also, I'm just joking around. I don't care.

I'm having fun with it. We're all having some fun. Yeah, we're all having fun. Yeah. How can you not? Summertime's coming up. Can you believe it? Yeah, I'm having fun.

Wait, Jeff, you're not excited about summertime coming up, like Mike just pointed out? No, I can't wait to sweat my little nuts off. Joe. Joe. Joe! Why did I just say Joe? I think I was trying to say Jeff.

No. Joe! I heard it. It was like a... You're going to sweat your little... your little... off. Let's try to clean up the language.

Yeah, okay. Sorry, everybody. Let's get into the drink. Come on. This is a good one. Okay. Hey, this is the most popular drink we've ever done. It's maybe the most popular drink.

I think I saw a source that I don't remember say this is the most popular cocktail. That's possible. I think that was www.com. www.com? www.lyinglennyshomepage.com. Why does Lying Lenny have the.com come before the URL? That was a screw-up. That was one of my screw-ups that everyone seems to love.

Okay. So, Tim, you think this is going to do good for our metrics, is what you're saying. I think that we're going to have boffo box office on this one and I'm not ready for the new attention. You hear this? Yeah. It's going to do numbers. I want to stay underground. I want to be indie.

I want to be alt, you know? Oh no, no, no. You want to take it to the top with the J man. To the limit. Wow. The margarita. Hey, it's the ultimate fun drink, right? It's a happy hour favorite. It's a Friday fun day post work.

Or even, hey, at the office once a year with your boss, maybe even on a Friday, people have a few margs. It happens. We should do this every week. But it all started in 1930s Mexico. There was a former Ziegfeld showgirl named Marjorie King Plant who was going down to Ensenada a lot because some rich old guy fell in love with her and gave her a hotel. Cool. And she was getting that opened up. The sugar daddy situation.

Whole hotel. Yeah, he was like, here you go. She was a former dancer, widowed, hanging out. And this guy was like, I'll give you a hotel. And she was like, I'll take it. Okay. During all that, she stopped into Tijuana, went to the Rancho La Gloria bar, and she asked the bartender, Danny Herrera, for a tequila drink.

Because she was like, you know, I'm actually allergic to a lot of spirits. Can you make me something with tequila? And he invented a little tequila cocktail for Marjorie and he named it after her, but in Spanish, the Margarita. Ooh.

Very nice. Now, sure, there are conflicting accounts. Sure, people say a Dallas socialite went to Acapulco and she was named Margarita. And sure, people say maybe it's Rita Hayworth or singer Peggy Lee, whose real name was Rita. But David Wondrich, who's usually right, he said that it probably evolved from the Daisy cocktail,

which has different ingredients, but they swapped them out. Daisy is a flower that in Spanish is called the margarita. Okay. So it's all sort of coming together. I'm just glad it's not a marketing dude from Triple Sec being like, oh God, we got to get rid of this Triple Sec. You might want to plug your ears for this next part because after it's invented in Mexico,

gadouge, it comes to America. We go nuts for it, because Cuervo and Sousa promote it heavily. Quantro puts it on the bottle. The recipe on the back is for the hot new margarita. Really? Esquire magazine gives it a big write-up. Correct my little dumb ass if it's wrong,

but Cointreau is brand name triple sour. Correct them on the orange liqueur. Continue. And Curacao is very, very similar, but it's from the island of Curacao. Aha. And then, so all this is happening, and then you know what shoots it into the stratosphere

is in the 70s, a Dallas restaurateur named Mariano Martinez invents the first frozen margarita machine. And you can see that very machine on display at the Smithsonian Museum in DC. That's cool. Whoa. It's very cool. And that was kind of- I'd have to plan a trip.

Just for that? Whoa. It's very cool. That was kind of the- You might have to plan a trip. Just for that? No, I also want to see the Washington Monument and make a funny dick joke about it. Okay. Here's now where I come into the scene and me-

Oh, this is great. Enter Tim. Enter Tim in upstate New York in the 90s and early 2000s. I'm seeing it in this form, right? The machine. I feel like I saw blender commercials. I saw green slush. Green slush.

I saw buckets of mix with spouts on the bottom. All right. And then when I was at the fun restaurants in town, you know I'm talking about the Coyote Cafe in Kingston. Sure. Sure. I'm probably talking about the Gypsy wolf cantina in woodstock yes the rolling rock cafe and rheinbeck the ground round at the hudson valley mall i saw

this green drink this snowy frothy foam of a green drink um and then later when i came to la that's when i only when i like took it seriously. Cause I feel like. Okay. Enough fucking around. Enough fucking around. But I don't know whether it was the timing of good drinks coming into style or just that I was a grownup. So I was going out to adult bars. But the first time I had a scratch margarita made from scratch was at El Chivito.

Remember that old place? Yes. Love it. And they had a house marg and they had a scratch marg. And I was like, oh, is there a difference? And they said, well, do you want mix or do you want me to make it from scratch? Mexico City also had a bunch. Yes, Mexico City.

And they also do the Cadillac marg where they put a little Grand Marnier on top. Yes, they do. Well, that's another great Mexican restaurant that is gone but not forgotten. You know, they put up a new sign for a new restaurant, and then they changed their mind. They took it down, and then they put up a third sign. And there's a new new sign. Yeah. So maybe it's just kind of a revolving sign restaurant.

Wendy's. So I'm a big fan of the drink. I drink them all the time. How about you guys? You've had? You like the drink. I love the drink. You had? I've had.

I've had a bunch. I've had. I've... I've had. Oh, Mike, turn... I am not one of these guys who says, this is margarita day, okay! Like you do. A couple of jagoffs like Tim

and Jeff. A couple of jagoffs like you. No, I... I think I just, it's not the taste for me. I do like tequila, and I've had a lot of fun on tequila. There were some times when we would do a lot of tequila shots, and I'd turn into, you know, everyone on tequila is a little louder, and then the next day you're like, whose face was I screaming in to talk to? Yeah,garita that's that's not the thing i'm uh is it is it too sweet is it too tart what do you what do you think i think it's too tart i don't i don't i do like the salt on the

rim i think that's cool i don't know this isn't just something just something i don't love the way you well you know back in the day mike you're salt sensitive now but't love the way you guys do it. Well, you know, back in the day, Mike, you're salt sensitive now, but back in the day, you would have a salt lick like a gerbil in your room, and you would just nibble on that thing all day. You wouldn't be happier. People would be like, where's Mike? Where's Mike? You'd be like, he's on his salt lick. Then on the weekend, I'd just dump tequila on it.

He's also running around in a hamster wheel while he licks on his salt lick. He'd power the house on that thing. He's also covered full in fur,ster wheel while he licks on his salt. He'd power the house on that thing. He's also covered in full of fur and he's about two inches long. Where the fuck's Mike? Well, guys, this drink for me, you know, it's the J-Man. Lime freak, ice freak. Yeah. Love tequila.

Yeah. So I'm interested to see, like, what is the IBA? How are they going to ruin my favorite drink oh you know they're playing it pretty conservative here is the iba recipe 50 milliliters of tequila aka an ounce and two-thirds blanco tequila usually sure you get fancy up with a reposado but hey start with blanco 20 milliliters of triple sec two-thirds of an ounce. You know, they recommend Cointreau,

but if you want to be cheap like me, get the normal triple sec. Okay. 15 milliliters of lime juice, half an ounce. Ideally fresh. Squeeze up your limes, folks. We're not going to ream you

if you use Rose's sweetened lemon juice from the store, but it really helps to get the fresh stuff. Pour all ingredients into shaker with ice. Shake well and strain over ice in a margarita glass rimmed with salt. Yeah. Are you guys prepared for that move?

Yeah. How are you guys going to do that? You take a plate with salt on it, right? And then get a little wet. Are you guys prepared for that move? Yeah. How are you guys going to do that? You take a plate with salt on it, right? And then get a little wet. You wet it. I see a lot of bartenders only doing half the glass, so you can sip selectively. But you use a lime wedge to wet the top of the glass.

And then you turn it upside down in some salt. I'm going to skip that step because too much salt will kill me. But you guys go for it. I'm going to go for it. You know, I also see people do it with tajin, that red limey salt. That's pretty nice. Jeez, I wonder if Old Bay seasoning salt would be good. Hell yeah, dude.

Well, wait, what's that drink you like, Tim? Yeah. Yeah, micheladas. Is that like a – I got like chili lime stuff on them. I got some of that. I got some like chili mango stuff. I'm not going to do it on the first round.

Oh, I might have. I'll dig around. Yeah, I might have some too. And here's the thing. Jeff, you don't like your drinks up. You know, when you're shaking, you're like, I don't want to strain. But the cool thing about this one, they're saying to strain it, yes, but pour it onto new cubes in your glass.

Onto fresh cubes. No, that's the move. That's the best move. That's very nice. And glass-wise, you have a couple options. I typically, I usually like it in a big, fat, old-fashioned rocks glass. Me too. That's what I'm doing. They say to use a cocktail glass, ideally a margarita glass,

which, you know what, it's got the really wide opening and then it's got a little bit of kind of hourglassing going on underneath it. Kind of a sexy shape. It's kind of a martini glass with a little bump in it i would say most margaritas i've gotten in the modern day are in a rocks glass yeah i agree but i'm gonna see i'm gonna dig up if i have a margarita glass i might um and i like that they're not telling us to put agave syrup they're not saying simple syrup don't sour mix. So this might be a classy-ass drink. Yeah, this is going to be a little more from scratch, you said this is? This is how this is made?

I hear people call this a scratch margarita, but IBA is just calling it a margarita. I feel like this is going to taste different from what I'm used to with the – when I think of margarita, I think of like a big themed restaurant type of mix. I think this is going to feel different than that. Shall we? We shall. Yes.

Hey folks, we want to pump the brakes on this episode and talk about a great podcast called Bizarre Albums from our good good pal Tony Thaxton. This is a great one. Tony explores the weird side of music, celebrating and telling the stories behind those strange albums that make you wonder how and why they exist.

He does deep dives on albums released by pro athletes, actors, fictional characters, and those albums where musicians or bands just took a crazy, weird left turn. The episodes are short, digestible. They're 15 to 20 minutes. We're full of pop culture trivia nuggets. You'll hear stories behind albums by Bruce Willis, Shaquille O'Neal, Macho Man Randy Savage,

Freddy Krueger, and many, many more. And he even does an episode on Ham's Brewing Company. They put an album out in 1965. It's really great. New episodes drop every Tuesday everywhere you listen to podcasts. Tony's got a Patreon. That's great. So do yourself a favor, drop everything you're doing right now and go listen to Tony's podcast, Bizarre Albums. It's fantastic.

And we're back with the Margs. Yeah. Oh. Guys. Yeah, baby. Take a look at this bad boy, huh? Beautiful. Yeah, that's, look at that. Oh, you got a lime in it and everything.

A big old wheel. Whew. Yeah. You guys did a good, well, Jeff, you got a good salt on the side here. Yeah, that's nice. I couldn't get the salt so good. It's on there. It's on there. That looks good. It's on there. That's a bad angle. Hold on. You got three grains up there. You got big chunks.

Yeah, that is big. It's like you're defrosting roads. Alright. Sips? Let's go south of the border. Woo! Woo! Oh, I got all salt the first time. Me too. South of the border oh I got all salt the first time me too south of the border indeed

hey you guys are going yes salty rim no straw so you're really getting it oh yeah that's are you doing a straw yeah but I also didn't have a salty rim

yeah yeah I shook the shit out of my yep drink too so I have a bunch of ice flakes. Oh, that's good.

Mmm. Mine tastes a lot like tequila, and I used good tequila, so it's a good drink. Yeah. I used Jose Cuervo. Oh, and you know what? I got those nips. I haven't done nips in a while, and that was exactly 50 millimeters, so I'm like, dunk, gone, done.

That's so weird that it would be 50 millimeters because that's like a measurement of length but that's weird they would do that it was a long it was yeah it was a weirdly long bottle i used hornitos oh yes hornitos tequila and quantro damn name brand dude so yours is going to be stronger than ours. Yeah, by a little bit. That's why Jeff is barfing already. Could you... What if... I wonder what mezcal would taste like in this. Smoky.

I say smoky. Yeah, yeah. Smoky. These salt grains are a little too big. I'm like chewing on them. How did you... So did you just use... Like kosher salt.

I went to the store and I found iodized sea salt, big and granular. And I just dumped a bunch on a plate and then did it that way. I tried to find the little, the Jose Cuervo ready pack. That kind of little bowl that you can dunk it right in. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, I've seen those. I've never really, yeah. I never put together with those. Here's what I do. I go to the mall. I go to pretzel time. I buy a pretzel and I pull off the grains one by one. One at a time?

Yeah. Inspecting each one. Yeah, pull them off with a little tweezer, look at them with a jeweler's loop, and then I say, it'll come in handy on Friday at happy hour. Lay them out on a plate in a ring. Tim will only take 20% of them. Sometimes he has to buy more than one pretzel. Those are the ones that make the cut. I see. All right.

This is better than the, I will say this is better than any other one I've ever had. Wow. Me too. You hear that IBA? This is the first time where I'm like, IBA that I have enough of a frame of reference to know whether or not they did a good one or bad one.

But mine really tastes like tequila and lime and just a little orangey sweetness. But it's so much better than having a mix or those ones that tell you to put a bunch of agave syrup and make it all sweet. Yeah. This is, yeah. This is like, the lime is like, and, and Quantra or triple sec is just enough

sweetness for me. Like it's, I think the problem last time I've had these is just like very tart or something. Syrup. Yeah. Syrupy. Doesn't have too much of a taste to me, but in a good way. Did you remember to add the ingredients? I did each and every one.

Oh my God. Got a glass of air. Like, you know, it tastes like tequila with a little bit of citrus in it. It doesn't taste like a slushy. Yeah, my tequila isn't even like popping through too much. It's like just there enough to say, you remember me? Yes, I do. Yes, I do.

I'd like to spend a little more time with your citrusy friends for a moment. You have been politely acknowledged. Now, don't overstay your welcome. We said our hellos. I'd like to just move on. That means it's balanced, Mike. That means you got a balanced drink.

Yes. Woo! Look at me go. I used Casamigos, and this is weird, but Clooney just poked his head in and was like, how you liking it? Oh, wow. Where'd he poke his head? How you like me now? Yeah, where'd he poke his head in?

Out of the glass? Out from the front of my pants. Oh, my God. Oh. Huh. I heard that guy's kind of a knob job. Yeah. I've never heard that.

He's the nice guy. I've never heard that. He's the nice guy. I've never heard that. You guys ever, when I was saying, hey, let's go south of the border, then I was thinking, do you guys ever, when you're a kid, you ever drive down I-95 on the East Coast? If you're going to Florida, there's a big tourist trap in South Carolina called South of the Border. Did you ever go there?

Oh, that rings a bell. It's very much like New yorkers going to florida this is where you stop but it's kind of anticlimactic it's it's it's like billboard after billboard is like five miles to south of the border and kids are like damn we gotta stop at south of the border and then when you get there it's kind of just like uh shitty food but but I think, oh, no, they have fireworks. That's why the kids get all excited. Oh, you can buy it. South of the border, the one where it's like they just sell like anything that's like vaguely Southwestern. They sell like arrowheads and salsa and dream catchers and lassos and boots.

Yeah. Well, because it's like you're south of the border of North Carolina. So I guess that's why you can sell fireworks. But it's just a general theme of south of the border. So anything flies down there. Tim, you've been to Lake George before. Jeff, you have been? You've been.

I've not been. Actually, where is it? I don't know. Where is Lake George? Upstate. It's in the Adirondacks. It's like a, it's a sort of vacation town up in the Adirondacks with like, I know it because we used to, my family used to vacation at this other lake nearby and we would go

to Lake George for the day and like look at all the little souvenir shops and stuff. Tim, do you, like it's, you've been there, right? Hundreds of times, yeah. Like throughout the town and stuff. Isn't it funny how all the souvenir shops had basically the same stuff? You could buy moccasins or slingshots or

those little gooey balloon things that kind of run through your hand at every shop. I don't know how any of these stay in business. They're all doing the same. What's this gooey balloon thing that runs through your hand? I know the thing you're talking about. You squeeze it and it... Yeah. I don't know how to describe it other than that. It's like a

balloon. It's kind of like a big soft dildo. Yeah, yeah. Kind of like a pocket pussy to be honest with you. No, I do know what you're talking about. To be honest with you. It's like a log, but it's got a hole in the middle of it and it rolls. Yeah. And when you're a kid, you

squeeze on it and then it squirms out your hands and you're like, get back here. Like the, like Big Johnson t-shirts. Remember that brand? Coed Naked t-shirts and stuff. Big dogs. Oh my God. I love all that shit

because I went to Lake George a lot, but then I also went the other direction down to the Jersey Shore a lot and I would just see the same t-shirts, you know, like, I'm over the hill, I'm 40 or whatever. You're like, why, why does that need to be on sale at the ocean? I loved in, in Spencer's gifts in the mall, the, um, the over the hill section, everything was like black and white. And it was like a magnifying glass to find your tiny dick or like a woman's bra that was like had big long cases for her boobs to go into.

Hold on that magnifying glass to find your tiny dick. I know you're joking, but did you buy that? Because I would love to borrow that. No, but I have the web address for Spencer. Okay, good. Because I mean, I don't want to go into it, but I'm in a little bit of a predicament over here. Man, that reminds me of like boardwalk shirts. You know, I guess that's what you're talking about.

Like gift store stuff that is even less legitimate than Spencer gifts. You know, where you get like Calvin pissing on a Ford or whatever, like stuff that's truly bootleg, like a stoned Bugs and Taz. The stuff that's truly bootleg like a stoned bugs and taz the stuff that's like yeah yeah yeah like airbrush art is even more bootleg but uh i love that man i love that stuff that was uh van artsdale and worked at a yes at a amusement park growing up dorney park in uh hershey pennsylvania and he was an airbrush guy and he said like the most one of the most popular things was was people wanted weed leaves or mushrooms all

the time. Also a stack of cash. Like bombs. There were, he said there were like certain things that they would train you to draw because they were so requested. And one was like a diamond. One was a stack of cash.

He, he still has a hat that says make out banded on it. That's like a trucker hat that he had airbrushed. That was like a common thing, man. I just saw a great one and I almost bought it and I don't know why I didn't, I'm kicking myself. I was up in Santa Cruz. They got a boardwalk and you know, that shirt, it's like a big beach shirt where it's got a drawing of a bikini lady on the front and it looks like it's on the back, like the bikini lady on the front and it looks like it's you and then on the back like the bikini lady from the back with a thong and then and they had a muscle man one and i was like i gotta buy this shit like i gotta buy this shit and then you know i gotta buy this i called my accountant i was like

should i buy this shit and they said with what i don't know well you're kind of a funny guy right yeah yeah yeah buy that shit it would be a comedy write-off. Hey, buy me one too. Oh, yeah. Margs. This is what I don't like about margaritas too, the shortening it to marg. That doesn't sound good to me. Well, what if somebody on a podcast says

margarita, margy, margy, let's pargy. Do you like that type of thing? That's what I, yeah. So you don't like? Didn't love that. Oh, okay. Did not like that. Didn't understand it. Now I don't like. It's funny, a cartoon of a marg is green. Mm.

But this marg is white. Yes. When I poured mine out and it wasn't green, I'm like, oh God, I'm going to get razzed again for having the wrong color drink. Yeah, it's just clear, huh? And get yourself a little food coloring. Yeah. I miss the green. for having the wrong color drink. Yeah, it's just clear, huh? And get yourself a little food coloring. Yeah. I miss the green.

I miss the green. Yeah. Sounds like Kermit when he got a sunburn. Sounds like me when I'm at a traffic light and I'm stuck there in the red. You guys ever been to Mexico? Margie Margin the Funky Bunch. No.

Yeah, I went to Cabo. How about you? Yeah, I went like once when I was a kid and I was, I went to like a marketplace with my grandparents and stuff

and went to like a flea market but like there would be like local artisans and I remember the concept of haggling made me very uncomfortable. Oh yeah. And my grandfather was like, noggling made me very uncomfortable. Oh yeah.

And my grandfather was like, no, it's okay. Like they say $5 and you say something like $4. And I was just like, no, five is okay. I'll just pay six.

That's okay. He's like, what do you mean? Okay. You don't have any money. You're a kid. It's your money. I don't like haggling in any context,

especially there you're on vacation and you just want to buy a trinket. You don't like haggling in any context, especially there. You're on vacation and you just want to buy a trinket. You don't want to go into businessman mode. Right. I love it. I love it. You live for it? I love the hunt.

Yeah. It's a, you know, it's a sport, me and other business people. I love the hunt when it comes to ketchup, but I'm talking about buying things here. But Mike, you're one of those like art of the deal guys. You really have to just screw the other guy. Yes. I need to come out on top and you need everyone to know about it. Oh, yeah.

Hey, everyone, guess how much I got this little flute for? Four dollars. I remember one time I went to, it was like a Disney on ice type of thing with my parents. It was like a Disney on ice type of thing with my parents. And they were selling these glowing light-up swords that had a picture of, hmm, not Daffy Duck, Donald Duck. And my mom, I was like, can I get one of those? And it was always like, I was even trespassing to ask that. But this time my mom was like, like yeah we can get that for you i was like are you really are you nuts me and i like was waving

it around like crazy and i had it for so many years after that in my just like toy chest of like if i was ever playing like i don't know fighting games my donald duck sword and like it was just like oh my god didn't it light up for like like donald duck sword it like it was just like oh my god didn't it light up for like maybe two days after that and then it was just like this kind of green sword but i was like i never get this stuff this is great this shit rules i remember those batteries dying because yeah i would leave the thing on for two days straight and then be like kill i see those when i'm leaving the Hollywood bowl after a concert, you're walking down the Hill,

having just had a good time and they sell all those light up toys and people stop and buy them. It's so weird. You were just at a two hour concert to light their way home. You wave it around. How could you be more thrilled by a, by a light up balloon than by a pole and his balloon than by Sir Paul. And his wonderful light show.

That weird margarita, fuck! I designed it myself. If I had OJ, I would have done it right now. You're nuts, man. This is just right to me. There's another one called the Tommy's Margarita that's on the IBA list. We'll get to that someday. And it is... It's got the agave syrup in it. So I think

it'll be sweeter. Hey, was it Mexico city that had like, I mean, they had a bunch of them, but I think they called their one that was lime juice and not mix. I think they called it the skinny margarita. Was that that place? Oh, I don't know. But I mean, that was a big boom in the mid two thousands, the skinny Marg. But like I hated, you know, the skinny that was a big boom in the mid-2000s the skinny marg but like i hated you know the skinny marg was like clearly the good one or the sort of natural one i always just felt lame being like skinny marg please uh i have trouble ordering that too because they look you up and down they say skinny but you're fat now and i say yeah i need to do a lot more than drink a margarita that's the idea this is the before image you're looking at, okay?

I want to leave here slim and trim. And then later that night, I'm walking out like a little skeleton, and they go, whoo-wee, that boy's foxy. Too many skinny margs for that guy. So what is a skinny marg? I think it's tequila, lime, and seltzer, right? Yeah, I guess guess so because it's got no sugar but i mean it's probably got like quantro triple second right but those are sugary so that what makes it skinny must be not having those there was one of the real housewives of beverly hills came out with

the brand skinny girl margarita oh right bethany yes frankl bethany frankl nice michael bethany um i didn't know who bethany frankl was and then i tuned in one day i had like daytime tv on years ago and she had gotten her own talk show like oprah style in the middle of the day and it was just called bethany and it i was just like watching the show start with like generic music and it was like here she is bethany and she walks out and then she never said her last name and i was like how does everybody so psyched it's bethany it's bethany did you what's bethany gonna say today jessica comes in she's like you gotta you gotta go to work like hold on i can't work now. Bethany. Bethany.

Bethany's on. Remember, we watched a sitcom one time called Rodney. Yeah. It was starring a guy named Rodney. What was that? Was that the one where everyone had a primary color t-shirt on? Yes. Everyone was wearing like just a straight.

Red shirt. No, nothing. No graphic on it. Green shirt, red shirt. Just like normal life. Hey, kids, come, no graphic on it. Green shirt, red shirt, normal life. Hey kids, come in here. We got to have a family meeting. And then your three sons have primary color t-shirts on.

Like I, they looked like so stiff and just like right out of the, uh, the Hanes bag. You know, who's got some good primary color t-shirts is Norm McDonald in the movie. Dirty work. Uh,

dirty. The wardrobe is preposterous. He's wearing these giant, is Norm Macdonald in the movie... Dirty Work. Dirty Work. The wardrobe is preposterous. He's wearing these giant, giant shirts. Giant shirts. All his, the sleeves are like, they go down to his elbows. It makes you look like a little kid if you wear these shirts.

It's funny. Somebody made a joke, it might've been Norm, that he and Artie Lang switched wardrobe for that movie. Yeah, because he's wearing like really tight polos. Yeah, that's really funny. Just one mix up on day one of a movie shoot.

The whole fucking thing. So now when you think of Margarita, you're thinking like spring break. Like it's that type of thing. Kind of, yeah. Or summer or spring break. Yeah. Like shots. Yeah. I had been kind of, yeah. Or summer or spring break or, yeah. Like shots. I had been kind of thinking of.

Yellow shot and margs. I was thinking of Cinco de Mayo, which is this week. And that was one of the reasons we were like, hey, let's do marg. And then I looked it up. Did you guys know that Cinco de Mayo, it's not Mexican Independence Day. It's Mexico in the mid 1800s. They won a battle against France. Nice.

And then France eventually won the war. So it was just about this battle, but it was like 300 or something where a small battalion of Mexican troops beat a huge French army. So they were just celebrating that. I knew it wasn't as simple as just like, I knew it wasn't as simple as just like, I knew it wasn't as simple as just like,

oh, it's there. It's Mexico's Independence Day. But I didn't know the actual. Well, it's another thing that it was, it was a little bit of a holiday in Mexico and they kind of celebrated it. And then Mexican-Americans in California made it into, you know,

a normal size celebration, but still not huge. And then American beer companies promoted the fuck out of it. And that's why we've heard about it. Interesting, interesting. As I'm getting to the bottom here, some of the ice or some of the salt has gotten in, mixed in with the ice and melted. And it's not like a salty drink.

Oh, that will happen. You got a little brine. It's a brine at this point. I found myself taking great care once the rim had been salted. I couldn't throw in the cubes willy-nilly like I normally do. I had to drop in each one. I was doing my usual

toss it over my head and kind of bounce it over my hip. Bounce off your butt cheek. But then the cube stinks. The cubes have a little brown on them. Okay. You guys used rocks glasses. I'm not walking around my house with shitty butt cheeks. Yeah, but then the cube stinks. Yeah, yeah. The cubes have a little brown on them. Okay, okay. You guys used rocks glasses. I'm not walking around my house with shitty butt cheeks. We've got to get this guy some toilet paper.

Shitty butt cheeks. I used the cocktail glass. Yeah, I see that. Like a big martini glass. And look how weird that looks with cubes in it. I've got to say, Tim, I don't like it. I don't like how it looks. Oh, Tim, lower it.

Lower it. Get it down away from the camera. Hey, it's Tim, I don't like it. I don't like how it looks. Oh, Tim, lower it. Lower it. Get it down away from the camera. Hey, it's almost like our podcast logo. Hey! Oh, yeah, it does. It looks exactly like that. It certainly does. It looks exactly like the hub logo. I'll tell you what, I don't like the margarita glass that you were describing for. Too tippy.

It has like the... Too tippy? I just don't like... It doesn't please me aesthetically, I'll say that. Oh, it doesn't please you? What a fucking not aesthetically. I'm starting to think the only thing that pleases you is one of those squirmy balloon things in Lake George. It jumps away from you.

I'm just trying to fuck it. That's all I'm merely trying to do, mom and dad. I'm not entertaining that one bit. No, you fell silent. I don't find anything funny with that. Well, I was thinking, I love margs, and I was thinking about how margaritas,

they improve your day. If you're having a sad day, you have margarita, it gets better. If you're having a meal, right, they improve your meal. Let's say you're having some enchiladas gives you a better meal but did you know that margaritas can also improve your song your song what song your song that you sing yeah like well like you know that thing about jimmy buffett right oh yeah he had margaritaville the margaritaville song eventually yes but um say what i don't know if you've heard the earlier demos of originally that song before he came up with the margarita part of that song it was just something's missing probably it was okay but it wasn't it wasn't quite there it just

it needed that little extra still a song, but it could use something. Okay. I actually have the track if you guys want to hear it. Oh, yeah. You? You have it? Yeah. I'd love to hear it. Me, Tim himself.

Not really doing anything else. I'd love to hear that. Great. Well, let's take a listen. Interesting. Okay. So far, so good. Maybe an old sponge cake.

Okay. Watching the sun bake. Familiar, yeah. All of those tourists covered with oil. Pretty good so far. Yeah, great. It's good so far. It's what I know.

Strumming my six string. Guitar. On my good so far. It's what I know. Strumming my six string guitar on my front porch swing. Smell those shrimp. They're beginning to boil. Great. Great. I'm going to eat the shrimp. See?

Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. After they boil. Yeah, this is not as good. Oh, shit. I like shrimp. But don't forget. Shrimps are pink. Oh, boy. Yeah. Oh, boy. I don't know if anyone would forget that. I mean, shrimps are pink.

Oh, boy. Yeah. Oh, boy. I don't know if anyone would forget that. I mean, it's not terrible. Wow, that was pretty bad. I mean, he had everything leading up to it. It was so good. Yeah, he sort of didn't stick the landing.

Right. All that lead up. Yeah. I bet he, you know, it just didn't sound right, and getting to the Margaritaville part helped him out. Well, it's funny. Like, I do didn't sound right. And getting to the Margaritaville part helps him out. Well, it's funny. Like, I do like shrimp. Yeah.

I don't know about, you know, boiled. I guess that's how you do it, right? I mean, even shrimp cocktail, it's boiled. You can. You know, ask Forrest Gump's friend. He'll tell you all the ways. I guess I just don't love focusing on that aspect of, like, boiled seafood.

Yeah. For a chorus. For a chorus. Yeah. Yeah. He's leading up to so much more than that it's not sexy you know rock music should have some kind of fun and just the boiling and everything and even if you like shrimp you don't want to think about the timing of it and plus i feel like everyone knows shrimp are pink so you don't really need to remind people of that that That's what I was thinking. Like, yeah, you assume a pink

shrimp, like a cocktail shrimp. Right. You know, you can get them before they've been cooked. They can look kind of grayish or white. That's true. But you know, you don't forget that they're also pink. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah, no one looks at a gray shrimp before it's cooked and says,

this will always be the case. Yeah, right. This will never be pink. I hope this doesn't change color when I boil it. Right. So, you know, I guess it's true what they say about how margaritas can improve things like for your day or your song. Or your song. Yeah.

Yes. Right, right. Either your day or your song can improve it. Well, that's great. It's fun to see like working drafts of this rock and roll stuff. Yeah. Well, you know, hearing that song, it's got me in the mood for maybe mixing up another.

A second round. Oh, you want to improve your podcast episode. Yeah, I want to improve this little hang session we got going. Me too. Were we recording? Michael. We'll be right back, folks. And we're back.

What's up? Hey, before we get into final thoughts, did you guys do anything different for round two? I did. No, I just didn't put salt on this one. Is it better? like the salt because the salt it's not just about the rim it also gets in the glass a little bit and it's a flavor enhancer that's what i'm saying but i i uh had already like started pouring it in i was like the salt shit my neighbor was like is is everything okay? I went with the mango chili lime Rimmer that I found. Ooh, how is? I'm about to give it a sip.

Nice. I hope he likes it. Oh, shit. That's flavorful. That's flavorful for Jeff. Jeff's got flavor. Oh, baby. I mean, that's definitely like adding a lot.

Nice. That's like a michelada. I'm looking at some like brown red crystals up on the top of the glass here, folks. It's like a michelada. I'm looking at some like brown red crystals up on the top of the glass here, folks. It's kind of spicy. And they taste brown red. Oh, that's that brown flavor. I would love that.

That looks great. And I did fake lime, not fake lime juice. I didn't squeeze the lime this time. I used bottled lime juice. Just as good. Hey, what is sweet and sour mix? Essentially, it's just lime juice and simple syrup, right?

Or is it something else? Sweet and sour mix? Yeah, it's like what you use for, I mean, I've heard people call a margarita a tequila sour, you know, in the traditional sense. So I think sour mix is, if you make a whiskey sour,

it would be sugar, lemon, whiskey. So sour mix is a catch-all that it's just like citrus and sugar when you don't have the other stuff. Well, whiskey sour. That ground sour. Sure. Hold on. I'm getting close to it.

No, no, no. You are quoting Pet Sematary. That's correct. The ground is sour. That's a big. Doritos. Mitch would always quote the ground is sour. That's a big burrito. Mitch would always quote, the ground is sour. Oh, I love that guy.

That's like Eddie Munster lives next door, and he's like, you got to walk out for your cat, you kid. I've never seen that movie. Good? Good. Well, I just spoiled it. The first one. Don't see the new.

Yeah. The newer one? Not good? Not good. Didn't see the new one. Not good, dude. Not so good. My round two, I happened to have a bottle of grand marnier which if you if you swap it out for the triple sec it becomes a cadillac margarita why on what grounds because if i'm correct and don't ream me online for this

i think the grand Marnier is not just orange liqueur, but it's orange liqueur with cognac. Oh, okay. So, it's like a Cointreau plus cognac. So, it's brown-er. Great. And it gave this, it gave it a bit of a, I mean, it still looks the same, but it gave it a bit of a warm,

the slightly woody whiskey-ish tinge that's delicious. Ah, woody whiskey. Woody with a buzz. Oh, is this a Toy Story drink? Oh my god. This is another Toy Story drink. I can't believe it. God, why doesn't the IBA separate

the cocktails into Toy Story drinks and non-Toy Story drinks? Didn't they? I thought they were. Maybe that's what the site is down for. Yeah, they're putting in a new section. They're uploading a JPEG of Woody. They're listening to this podcast and like, okay, what have they decided is a Toy Story drink? Ooh. I'm ready to rank this thing, and I am pleasantly pleased today.

Mmm. Yeah. You have done good today, you two. Well, it's not us versus you. Good for me. It's sort of the drink versus... No, no, no, but you... Because you like this drink, it was hanging all over you. Damocles' sword was

above your neck. Oh, shit. Would it drop? Yeah. I'm into it. Usually I'm like, I'm going to go to a professional restaurant or a professional bartender and have him or her make this up for me. But today I say, uh, today I'm the professional. Yeah. That's a frequent note you've had is that, uh, professionals only appointments with professionals. Pro-am. Pro-am. Tim? Yeah. I want to go on the pro-am tour for this one, baby. No, it's delicious.

I mean, I loved it going in, so I also love it. I love the bad ones. I love the frozen ones. I love the mix. I love them all up and down. But this to me is maybe the most I've ever been happy with the IBA. I think they got this drink down to its bare essentials, and they really, we razz them.

We make fun of their website being down. You know, when they put orange juice in their bee's knees, we drag them. Yeah, we drag them good, don't we? Well, you razz the ones you love. Yeah, and this was a week where we definitely loved them. They made a nice little drink, tequila, lime, triple sec. Shake it up, drink it.

Simple. So simple. This does feel like, you know, when the bars and, you know, big family restaurants are doing it wrong. It's because they're doing too much crapola. Yeah. And this would be good at a restaurant because even if I had just a big, huge plate of beans and rice, you know, when you go to a Mexican restaurant. Yeah, I'm not

riding in the car with you home in that one. Dude, the farts will power the car home, so you're going to save gas, I'll tell you that. Sure, I'm getting a lift. I would like one of these nice stiff margs when I'm eating my big enchilada plate. Yeah. You know? For me, this is an order again, order

multiple. Anytime, anyplace. Again and again and again. Order multiple on the order multiple. Any time, any place. Again and again and again. Order multiple on the first round? I mean, you could definitely make it a double. It's going to melt, Jeff. And you don't like the melty ice, hot ice. But here's the thing.

As far as a podcast experience goes, the only mark against is that this wasn't like a revelation. You know, like the Trininidad sour is going to be like oh yeah yeah what the fuck is this thing i i knew what i was getting with this and it and it succeeded we got we should have like a what's the best of the best distinction we can give a drink like this a classic a stone cold sloppy boys classic jeffy likey i think it's stone cold classic stone cold classic yeah steve austin's stone cold classics this is steve austin this is worthy of steve austin i agree it's a classic and for its time that's pretty good think about you know you said the trinidad sour yeah giuseppe gonzalez at the clover Club in 2009 or whatever had a stroke of genius.

But what about, you know, fucking Danny Herrera in Tijuana in the 1930s coming up with this for the first time? He didn't know about the blenders and he didn't know about all the bullshit. He was just trying to make a good cocktail and he succeeded. Death & Co, I i think was where the trinidad sour oh wow no no that's not a old tsk tsk tim that's more of a i think i know what it is and i have you guys ever had a bad one mark oh mike you said you said you've had bad ones where they get too they monkey around too much but are there like weird alts? Are we going to be, do we have any weird alts in our future from the IBA list? We have one that is called the Tommy's Margarita.

It's from San Francisco and it has no triple sec. So it's sweetened instead with. HTML. Agave syrup. Well, that sounds fine, but I want to see sipples. Oh yeah, we should do that one because it might be bonkers. I bet it's very sweet. Let's do it this summer.

Let's not put it off until 2022. Let's do it next episode. No, I'm starting to think, can we put this off? Maybe Christmas 2024. Ding dong, ding dong. It's time for Sir Paul's Margarita. Sir Paul. These guys are bad podcast producers.

Well, he did have that song, Simply Having a Wonderful Christmas Time. That is true. So that makes sense. That song, I didn't like it as I was a kid. But growing older, I'm like, man, you crazy for this one, Paul. You got used to that. That's synthy, Paul. You got used to that. That's synthy Paul. I like it.

The delay. Talk about just the perfect example of how Paul and John are different from each other than they both came out with Christmas songs. John has, and so this is Christmas. And what have you done? And John has, simply having a wonderful Christmas time. Wait, isn't John Lennon's song, so this is Crispix? Yes, it was for the cereal, yes.

Yeah, yeah. Honestly, I know this isn't why you brought it up, Mike. Probably is not. But Crispix is my favorite cereal. Oh, okay. Maybe we do a whole episode on favorite cereals one day. Rice on one side, corn on the other, and that shit's never on sale. Damn, rice on one side, corn on the other is my favorite dinner,

but I never really had it in cereal form. It's sort of half-Rico Chai-Chi. Mix them all up. Yeah. Mike, you got ripped off by Crispix, dude. Yeah, I did. Hey, here's something I want to bring up. We talked about our favorite chips

on a couple pods ago. Got myself some Zaps Voodoo. Oh, I'm jealous. Oh, Mikey! Ooh, look at that bag. These things, this is my second bag. I went through a first one. These are so good. Mike, why don't you take a bite? Oh, yeah.

That crunch. That's a nice crunch crunch. I've said this on our text thread. It's a more focused barbecue chip. Laser focus. It's not, you know, Lay's barbecue is wild and wacky. It's a little greasy. I got to say that the morning after we talked about our favorite chips, I did wake up and was like, oh, my God, I left out this chip and that chip

and this chip. There's so many good chips. Yeah. Well, now's the time to come clean with them. So Mike, was it voodoo? Was it Zapp's voodoo that we were like, oh, it's just Old Bay? No, it was crab.

It was... Ut's crab. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Have you tried that? I don't know if I can get around the crab part yet. It doesn't have any seafood taste.

It's your beloved A1. Not A1. What's your beloved spice? A1. Oh, fuck. Old Bay, but I do like A1 a lot. These margs are dugging. Guys, I went to the beach this weekend.

I went to Neptune's Net. Mmm. Oh, nice. What a blast. I got a hat. Neptune's Net hat. You do? Now. Sure I do. I've done,, Neptune's net hat. You do now?

Sure I do. I've done during COVID. I did the drive in there. Are they, do they have any in inside dining yet? It was outdoor, like walk up style. Like you had to walk up to like a, you know, collapsible table and, you know, look at a menu on a, on a whiteboard. But I got myself some shrimp tacos,

some baked fish tacos, and some oysters. That's fun. A little of this, a little of that. Yesterday, I got myself some Japanese infusion tacos. They were really good. Damn, dude. What is that like? I got to up my taco game.

Like sushi-like? One was like curry beef, and the other one was like ahi tuna. Oh, God, that sounds good. Taco. I was at Neptune's Net once, and you know how a lot of bikers go there because it's on the PCH? Yeah, it's annoying as fuck. It's always funny when you see big, tough guys

on Harleys, and they're stopping because they're like, ooh, the fried shrimp here are fun. But one time... The fried shrimp here is pink. I heard a song about shrimp being pink. I like when I'm mid-conversation with my friends and I have to stop for two whole minutes so that a guy on a bike can pass.

Wow, Jeff. Shots fired. Well, one time I was there and I was sitting outside and I'm quite used to the biker gangs pulling up, but guess who comes up? A big gang. German guys in mini coopers 20 mini coopers pull up like the italian job oh my god just like the italian but these were german guys so the german job would be the perfect that's my ideal name and they were like don't

spritz me jeff you don't like the bikes. You know, they're too loud and stuff. But remember that time we were in the car? I think it was when we were shooting that John Lennon short. And like, it must have been like 200. Hogs. Crotch rocket bikes. Remember that?

That was so crazy. I thought that was really cool. Oh, yeah. When they like take over the highway because there's just so many of them and they're so fast. Yeah. Yeah, that's cool. When a biker has those big, high handlebars and they're sitting way low with their hands spread out high on the big bars. Yeah.

Is that just for kicks? Yeah. Like, they think that looks cool or is there like... I think that's a... Yeah, I think that's a... It's an aesthetics thing. It's like... I think that you'd call that a chopper.

Ah. It's a chopper, baby. We all know... Z It's an aesthetics thing. It's like, I think that you'd call that a chopper. Ah. It's a chopper, baby. We own the phone. Zed's dead. Pulp Fiction. 1994 Miramax. I have to put the chips away. You know, Mike, at times like this, I wish you could pass a chip through, like, the USB

port or something. Jeff, I kid you not. I was reading something about Apple's future. We are two years away from that technology oh my god so you could 3d print a chip over here well i just you put it on the microphone and all of a sudden it seeps into it and flies out your microphone if you think about it all you need is like if you had a little usb attachment on your phone and in that attachment there was like a potato with uh yeah you, all the necessary paprika.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah. You would just have to load up the potato and the paprika, and then it prints it out. That's all you'd have to do. It's so easy. Well, it's been fun. It has been fun.

This is a good one, but now it's done. This is a great one. Good drink, good episode. Good drink, no stink. Good drink. It's the fun. It has been fun. This is a good one, but now it's done. This is a great one. Good drink, good episode. Good drink, no stink. Good drink. It's the margarita. No stink, and it's going to get so many clicks because it's such a popular drink. What are we going to do with all this extra click?

If you're listening. You've already clicked. Yeah, this episode is Doja Cat level. Yeah, dude. And hey, let's call it out. What does that mean? No clickbacks. Does she get a lot of clicks?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's the queen of TikTok, Mike. She's not the queen of TikTok. You think you are? She's not the queen of TikTok. I am. Me. Michael.

Hey, for a Patreon, we should do an episode where we try and fuck that water balloon thing. Oh, yeah. Wait, so one guy on each side, but then the third guy's just kind of trying to get in wherever he can? No, we each have our own balloon. Oh, yeah.

Tim, be serious. No, I'm serious. That would actually be, like, really good content. Content-wise? Yeah. I'm not content until I make content. That's a good rap. Yeah. A-b-b-b.
