I'm Jeff Dutton along with Mike Hanford. Yo-ho. And Tim Calpacus. What a he is up. And we're your host of Sloppy Boys back in the high life again in this format adhering episode.
Starting point is 00:01:23 Yeah, that was wild last week. Wild stuff. Can you believe that? I don't know how people got my phone number, by being phone calls nonstop since that episode's come out. Concerned about the format? What the fuck are you doing? What the fuck?
Starting point is 00:01:39 Put the format back together. After we broke it, we have to reassemble it. I structure my whole week about the around that format. You fuck. What the hey. Well, I've been answering those calls and telling people, it's worth it to create a viral hit sensation drink of the summer, the piss and shit, sweeping the net.
Starting point is 00:02:02 You'll be thanking us when we're rich this summer. I don't know if we made it so clear on that episode that, episode that folks when you're out there we need audio of you ordering the piss and shit you need to start telling people about it let's get this thing moving this is up to the three of us can't do it on our own by going out oh can i have a piss and shit at up one bar a night no we need thousands we need the tens of thousands of you out there we could do it that way we don't have time i like if our approach of this drink is not just like it's good you guys should try it it's more like uh like public television or something like you got to help us out because
Starting point is 00:02:38 we rely on you. It's like the last episode's like, hey, it's fun, we're ranking it, we're having fun. Okay, guys. Now it's the homework episode. Balls in your court, guys. Well, everyone, I'll tell you what, I feel good.
Starting point is 00:02:55 My summer is shaping up really good, and I feel like it's, it's nice to have the drink of the summer just squared away right off the bat. We know what that is. Oh, yeah. Get it done. I'll tell you another one.
Starting point is 00:03:06 I got a new show. Widows Bay. You guys watching Widows Bay? Oh, I have heard of Widows Bay. Tim. Hit him with it. So fucking fun. Created by UCB's own Katie DiBold. Yes. It's an Apple TV series. It's a horror comedy, hard genre to pull off. Very hard. Very hard. Also, I would say, you know, lots of times you're like, is this a drama or a comedy? And it's whether it's an hour or a half hour. This is when the episodes are like 38 minutes. And I'm like, oh, that's perfect.
Starting point is 00:03:38 Right in the middle. So, and it's on Apple, you said? It's Apple. It's a creepy. It's got sort of, it's about an island in New England, like a misty, foggy island. Which one? Widows Bay. Misty foggy.
Starting point is 00:03:55 Where creepy stuff happens. And it's about the mayor trying to hold everything together. So it's got Stephen King or Jaws type of vibes. But then it's also a little faulty towers as the mayor's, like, there's funny. townspeople. I'm laughing out loud. It is like a, oh, good. It's like, is a comedy like a heart with hard jokes? It's funny as fuck. And it's not, you know how comedies will sort of overplay, or just, I guess, every aspect of television writing, it has to be very surface. Like, some jokes are like kind of played pretty subtle and tossed off. They're not, it's not begging you to know it's a comedy, but if you have half a brain, you'll, you'll be laughing out loud. You know what? I'm kind of, um, you guys are the sort of the Twin Peaks heads.
Starting point is 00:04:38 of the three of us. Certainly. That reminds me of Twin Peaks. Because it's like, if it's funny and there's weird stuff going on, that's Twin Peaks. Yeah. It's, yes. And I would say it's a little more imagine if, well, no, yeah, it's a lot like Twin Peaks. And there is more of a straight line like where it's not like the town is weird and the genre of filmmaking is weird and the reality.
Starting point is 00:05:03 Like, it's more like it is rooted in sort of like a protagonist that's a real world guy. I just love it. I'm laughing my ass off. I encourage all slop heads to get on board for Widows Bay Summer. That's great. I am hearing a lot of buzz about it. Yeah, I just looked it up and I saw a bunch of just articles like, I'm three episodes in and, you know, the best show that I'm only three episodes in,
Starting point is 00:05:26 and I'm already hooked. I'm excited to watch. And that's a tough, without spoil. I'm just going to set this out there. You don't have to answer it to him. It's tough with like comedy horror stuff or comedy mystery because, like, Like at some point it does have to kind of be scary or do the thing. It has to solve the mystery.
Starting point is 00:05:44 So that's a tight, a tough tight. We'll see how they do. I'll be watching. I think one thing they're doing well too is they're not overdoing it. But slowly they're making me kind of care about people so that then like even if the, the horror element isn't going to eventually scare the shit out of me, I at least want people to characters to not die
Starting point is 00:06:07 or characters to not let each other down, you know. I have a feeling I'm going to put this show on and like all the characters at one point or another are wrapped up in a rug and taken out of a room. Jacob Tremblay in Room. Oh my God. It can't just be that one thing. It's so weird.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Folks, check out the movie Room. It's the second time I ever emoted in a movie. The other one was George Bailey being called the richest man in town. Well, now wait a bit. You emoted happy emotions at Batman McGins when you brought a sub sandwich. That was the sub, Mike.
Starting point is 00:06:41 Very true. Yeah, but that's still an emotion. I think that's still an emotion. And I will say, over on the blowout, patreon.com slash the sloppy boys, where we talk about like geek shit like X-Men movies and Star Wars prequels, almost all of those movies have been greatly elevated
Starting point is 00:06:56 by the snacks at Jeff's house. You know, if I'm watching a shitty Star Wars prequel, but I'm eating a gummy nerds cluster. Yep, yep. You know, I keep them common, dude. Nerds gummy cluster. Two flavors last night, rainbow and very berry. I was alternating.
Starting point is 00:07:14 Oh, that's exciting. I didn't even look at the screen. I was just facing the bowls of candy. I got myself a box of nerds just a regular box of nerds the other day. Yeah. It was great. I put them in the fridge. It got them cool.
Starting point is 00:07:27 It was really, it was fun. Do you see my post the other day that nerds are Yoshis or Yoshis are nerds? they're quite similar in design, don't you say? Yes, I did see that. You're just saying they look similar. It's not like that there's a connection between Martin. I'm just saying, no, there's not an actual thing. But I'm not the first person I come up with it.
Starting point is 00:07:48 Because I would be, these days I would be convinced. Gosh, gosh, I know. Wonka and Nintendo collab. But no, no, I'm not the first one to come up with this, but I did come up with it on my own, if that makes sense. I was like, damn, I always did think Yoshi look like a nerd and a nerd look like a Yoshi, and I looked it up online, and I'm not the first one to think that. There have been huge exposés.
Starting point is 00:08:09 I never had that opportunity, Jeff, because they're not around me long enough for me to even recognize what they could possibly be. A lot of people going into a rabbit hole on like the new virus, the new crude ship virus. Not me. Yoshi nerds is my rabbit hole. Once we get that figured out, Jeff, you could move on to the any type of virus pandemic. One thing about Widows Bay, folks, if you don't know, Katie Dippold. is the creator and subject of the one of the funniest tweets out there ever. It was Halloween. She went to more of an adult party. And she dressed up as the Babaduke.
Starting point is 00:08:44 And the picture of her like sitting at a couch with other people. And she's just there by herself dresses the Bobbuk and saying, this was more of a wine party. Classic meme. I love hearing. Like we have a lot of friends that have made big memes, me included. But that one, I've just heard that reference.
Starting point is 00:09:02 Like, I feel like on a show or movie recently, they're like, I love Halloween. You know, there's Carvin Pumpkins. There's that Babadook picture. Oh, wow. Yeah. In a lot of the reviews of Widows Bay, it's like Katie Dippold, writer of Ghostbusters and the Bobadook picture. Oh, she wrote Ghostbusters too. I forgot about that.
Starting point is 00:09:20 And she wrote for her parks and wreck and, and, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. She's a great writer. It's great to see a show from like a new person, you know? Yeah. Like a new show from a new person that isn't just like, hey, we got some of the old writers from that 70s show to come up with a cop thing for real and not that 70s show a 70s show from the 70s not the one you're thinking of not red foreman's playground if somebody cool from the cool comedy world does manage to create like create a show it tends to be like co-created and co-eped with a big old dinosaur that bogged it all the fuck down this is just like uh from creator katie dipper like it's all yeah i'm excited
Starting point is 00:10:02 to see. Katie would love it. We should have her on. Can we have her run? To defend herself, yes. We should. Let's have run next week. We have, oh, I got another good summer thing for you. I was on a jog today, right as, this is right as sun is starting his set. So it's a beautiful time. I'm getting my nice miles and 3.2 miles, all told. Very nice. I'm listening to, this is a good summer album. I implore you to listen. It's a good June album. Maybe we're May, but into June. Father of the Bride by Vampire Weekend. I mean, you know I'm on board. You guys love that Vee Wee, not me, man.
Starting point is 00:10:37 You do not love Vee. I love Vee. If you're J.D, you don't like Vee Wee. It ain't the place to be. It ain't the place to be. I love that album. It's a really, but it's just as such a summary vibe to me person. Maybe it's just what that's when I was listening to it.
Starting point is 00:10:53 Are you summary vibe, comma, Timmy? Yeah, it's a summary vibe. Timmy. And you too, Jeff. And to a lesser extent, Jeff. F. No, V-Wee, he. Mike, I'll listen to that on my jog tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:11:09 Probably two miles, not 3.2. But, hey, how about, speaking of having a summer thing, like Widows Bay and Biss and shit, I know it's not going to be the song of the summer. It's a bit of a two-minute novelty, but I love that new Charlie X song, rock music. Come on. Do you?
Starting point is 00:11:26 Oh, no. I love it. I haven't even heard it. It's the, it's been stuck in my head. And then I know it sets up itself very much up for that TikTok trend, but I like
Starting point is 00:11:38 that. I think it's a good, as far as like, if you're following brat, no one wants you to just be like, hey, I'm following brat. So like she did the movie soundtrack that had some cool music on it, but it counts as a different category. Now she's just slipping out an interesting kind of
Starting point is 00:11:54 Wait, what movie? Wuthering Heights. Wuthering Heights. She also did some tracks for Mother Mary. She's kind of like done. a big Hollywood pivot that I don't, I wish she was just doing more straight up comedy acting. Like I thought her, I thought her S&L stuff was so good. And I was like, oh, great, she can act. And now she's going to be an actor. And they were all so, like one movie is called The Moment. It's like kind of a parody of the Brat thing. And she's playing herself. And she's got all these other things.
Starting point is 00:12:26 It's like a faux documentary. A faux documentary. And I wish you would know that. Yeah. That's cool. I, because I saw a trailer for like half a trailer. I was like, I don't want. I'd seen these types of movies. That's fun if she's doing a character. But I kind of feel like, I feel bad talking shit, but it was kind of a misfire her pivot to Hollywood for me. So her being like, I got new music coming out. It's going to be rock music. I thought, cool. That should be interesting. I get not wanting to follow up, Brat. And for her to do like, oh, it's a take on rock music. I also get that.
Starting point is 00:12:55 Oh, wait. I missed the announcement. I didn't know anything before this song was like on my phone and it was called rock music. Had she said I'm coming out with a rock album? She said the dance floor is dead, so we're making rock music, which is also like the chorus of the song. That's the chorus of the song. So I wonder what that means. Like, you know, everyone's expecting the part three of the Beyonce trilogy to be a rock album.
Starting point is 00:13:17 And as much as I like that one Jack White song on Lemonade, I don't really think that a whole rock album for Beyonce is as fun as a dance album for Beyonce or whatever. But from Charlie, like, her discography is so eclectic and so cool. I would be open to it, but I took that song as just a fake out. Because she's like making fun of the dance floor. And but then she's also saying like she's banging her head and the nerve damage is real. It's not even legit. It's not even.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Yeah. I think we're all being trolled. It is. Yeah. I was going to say I haven't heard it yet. But just seeing how the Brad album was like rolled out and it was like a big thing. I would imagine this. She is going to do stuff now like pretty planned out and pretty.
Starting point is 00:14:00 like like uh like i see what you're saying tim she's got a crown to defend you're saying she's not going to wing it she ain't winging it it's pretty amazing that to think of bratt summer that like it didn't i'm sure the people that were tapped in uh i mean i liked her previous couple albums but i wasn't like a super fan so i wasn't watching but like all i don't remember any promo for it or lead up to it but i just remember when the album cover was revealed that alone lowercase brad on a green like a green square, that caused ripples. Like, and even I looked at it and I was like, it stuck out to me. Like I, in it, the visual was like bad in a good way.
Starting point is 00:14:41 And I was like, what is this? And it was confident and trashy. Yeah. Do we still have our, uh, our Brett, uh, Sarbina shirts on? Oh yeah. That's a best seller, Mike. Go, folks, go to the slobbyboys.com slash store. We got some good Sarbina and Brat inspired merch.
Starting point is 00:14:56 I'm wearing this Sarbina one right now. That's a good look with all the pictures over. Yes. online folks the sloppy boys.com. I was going to say some good Charlie shit. Charlie has, so I just don't like that song sonically. Like they picked a weird thing to kind of go throughout it. There's like a weird guitar-ish sound that just is sort of like picking and prodding
Starting point is 00:15:16 through the whole song. You know what I'm talking about, Tim, right? I got to listen to this. I do know what you mean, but I like it. But like I get, you know what would be a more your style, Jay? And I get this is like Hollywood baby by. 100 gecks is like, ha ha, we're doing a like a pop punk song, but also, holy fuck, we're doing a good one, you know? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:39 But also, I think there are apologists online who were like, well, look, Charlie's always been ahead of the curve. It took a while for people to come around on Charlie. And I'm like, not me, motherfucker. I like dollar shit. Yeah, me too. I don't like this. Go back.
Starting point is 00:15:53 I liked this one one second into it. I like that chord progression on that guitar you don't like. And then I like, I'm making rock. Chewbacca's dipping in for the hook. That's cool. Well, hey, you got to agree to disagree here on the sloppy boys LLC with your car. It's a forum for opinions here online. I'm two seconds in on the music video.
Starting point is 00:16:17 She threw a TV out the window. It looks like rock and roll music to me. Rude. Rude. Well, do we get into some booze news? Booz-bib-bib-bib-bib-bib-bib-bib-bib. Boos news hit it. Let's take this party on the road. on your tune for this little space evader
Starting point is 00:16:52 I'm gonna put a bullet up his robot ass every one of you, EWox is a girlfriend half solo what happens if I don't you bastard? The boy you act completely different than the character with the very same name in the other movie
Starting point is 00:17:15 Yeah, yeah News news you sci-fi dudes Wilhelm Scream called it A duel of the slops was sent to us by King, Eric Kang the Kang himself And if you got Booz News NewsDeme email it to the Sloppy Boys Podcast at gmail.com.
Starting point is 00:17:33 Very good. Very good. That was a good sketch. Take that Rick Tapper. Daddy's home. Damn, yeah, really. Daddy's Home, too. I'm trying to create a generational rivalry among our Booz News creators. They're all very talented. I love you guys. They're all very talented, but we will crown a champion at the end of this podcast at the end of its run. on his final episode, to be determined.
Starting point is 00:18:00 That's what this was the whole time. It was just a competition for the booze and things. I like that that referenced a couple of things I care about. It's prequel month over on the sloppy boys blowout. We're watching Star Wars movies at the sloppy boys. Patreon.com slash the sloppy boys. Very interesting to revisit. And then also it had clips from the birthday boys sketch.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Star Wars, our old sketch group. We've been rolling out some classic clips newly verticalized. How fucking funny is Tom Lennon in that sketch? He's very good. He dropped right the fuck in, huh? He was great. A little backstory on that he was shooting the pilot for the odd couple at the time. Remember that show with Matthew Perry?
Starting point is 00:18:45 It had a season or two maybe. But he was like, he was yelling. He's like, I really want to do this guys. Just so you know, I probably can only do a few takes of the yelling just because I don't want to blow up my voice for this. pilot that I'm like, right. So he was like doing his favor by like jumping away from that project. And he did like more takes than we even needed. He was so great. To anyone listening who's ever worried about blowing out their voice, you're going to want to get an app called Vocal Ease for You. The sloppy boys were turned on to it by Jeff Rosenstock and Chris Farron.
Starting point is 00:19:15 It's a vocal warm up app that makes you sore to greater heights. You never thought possible and never lose your voice. To such great. You got me using it. I'm the drummer, man. Yeah, you're doing warm-ups like, okay, ready for some booze news? Yes, please. Okay, because I got some hot topics here. A couple of new products I wanted to make you aware of that just came out on the market. Rumpelmints cinnamon whiskey.
Starting point is 00:19:47 That's right. Rumpelmints. Whoa. The 100-proof mint shot that goes with my invention in the Alpine crush. of course. Yes, yes. That's also become sort of a bartender
Starting point is 00:19:59 handshake type of a shot. I've noticed that because... The Upman Crush specifically? Wild style? I mean, Yajai style, yes. But Rumblemints is a little bit of a winky,
Starting point is 00:20:10 funny... It's like an oddity of the back bar that bartenders do like to drink. But so they're trying to get in the, obviously in the fireball game. But as we know, fireball is like 66% proof or something like that or even less when you get at a gas station.
Starting point is 00:20:27 Right. This one is 100 proof, just like Rumblemints. And I read some reviews. They say it's a good shot. It starts off cinnamon, then it ends mint. It's not too sweet, but it is a little mouthwashy, so you've got to be on board for a mouthwashy finish. That's when people bring us, bring shots up to the stage. It's happened a few times where people have brought Rumbleman's shots up there.
Starting point is 00:20:50 It's kind of a, it's kind of that York Pevere and Petty, whoosh. Yes, yes, yes. I feel like I got snowflakes, like flying out of my nostril. But it's also the fucking stickiest. If you get any of it on your guitar, it's there for the whole night. I spilled like a whole shot on my guitar once. You'd think because it's 100 proof you could like clean your electronics with it and stuff. But no, it's so sugary and sticky.
Starting point is 00:21:14 Yeah, you don't want this anywhere near your electronics. It is weird, like on a tour when you start to realize like my guitar is so sticky from the Coomers being brought to the stage. Just like drinks and sweat and dirt. The other one like that was in New England, they're fond of the Dr. McGillacuddy's menthol mint. Yes. But I like that one is shaking, you know, shaking on ice and then poured in their shotguns. Chilled.
Starting point is 00:21:39 Chilled. Shaking not stirred. Okay, Mr. Ball. You remind me of someone who's talking to James Bond. Yes, maybe one of the villains of his movies. Did James Bond direct all these movies? We are colleagues of Goldfinger. Yes.
Starting point is 00:22:00 Dr. No. But perhaps odd job himself. Yes, yes, yes. We're friends with jaws indeed. I'm just naming them off of the Nintendo 64 game. I'm a bit of a Bond head, though. I know some Bond guys. Is Bond?
Starting point is 00:22:20 Did you ever read all the novels? No. I didn't read all the novels. I made that. I was like, I'm going to read. I'm going to start the Bond books. And I read like two of them. I was like,
Starting point is 00:22:30 these are fine, but, you know, I just don't want to read more of these. Too many of these. One's enough. One's enough. And there's a lot of them out there. Okay, next new product I want to tell you about, Yeager Meister Orange. That's right.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Jaeger Meister Orange. Now, this one, I guess they've been testing it in Europe a couple years. Then they first test marketed it in Wisconsin, and it did well. it's everywhere. This is your beloved Jaeger or your reviled Yeager. You're a reviled Yeager, right, Jeff? You're a reviler. Nah, it's not my fave.
Starting point is 00:23:08 It's not my faith. But you had like a, like I had an upchuck situation. Yeah, or it's like it always has a little bit of like once, if you're, if you've been drinking, which is when the Yeager comes out and you do a shot, I did one with Carl Filer. And I felt like it, I felt it bounce on the bottom of my stomach like a trampoline. and try and come back up and I had to be like, oh, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:23:29 The stomach totally empty, just a hard floor to bounce out. It's always a bit of a wretch risk. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I do agree. It has something to do with the time of night. It's coming out. But here I am. Now I love, like, your fernets and all the stuff
Starting point is 00:23:45 that's sort of Yeager-adjacent. So maybe I need to give it another sort of fair shake. Yeah, I can't remember if I've done a Yeager. I think I've done a Yeager shot before. and it was fine, but I don't remember it being like something I loved. I like it exclusively if it's from one of those upside-down shot machines where the two upside-down bottles and it's super freezing cold. That's really good.
Starting point is 00:24:06 Yeah, those are cool. Reviews of this Yeager Meister Orange say that it's good. It starts off with this orangy, Sicilian orange flavor. And then it does on the back end. It is classic Yeager taste. So you're getting orange and black licorish. And it's 66. proof.
Starting point is 00:24:25 I know, I know, Yeager Meister isn't a chocolate taste, but you know those like around Christmas time? It's those little chocolate orange. It's like a shape of an orange and they're chocolate, but they also have like a hint of orange. It's like wedges.
Starting point is 00:24:39 I don't care for those. I'm just going to say, I like them, but I think I, yeah, I think it's you too. Like people don't like, it's a really like.
Starting point is 00:24:47 I don't need fruit and chocolate. That's not a mixture I need. Yeah, I eat fruit on its own. But I do like the presentation of that thing. And then you kind of smack. and it falls into segments. It's pretty impressive.
Starting point is 00:24:56 It feels like an English toy or something. Like you good on Christmas. We've got something. Maybe something like Harry Potter. Like a kinder. Kinder egg. Yeah. It's like in the lion,
Starting point is 00:25:06 the witch in the wardrobe when they're like, Turkish delight. Normal Yeager is 70 proof. This is 66, the orange. So nice subtle. Sipper. And next piece of booze is that, a piece of business.
Starting point is 00:25:23 I had to get to. This is kind of annoying. You know how normally we run ads on the show. Acast makes us run ads on the show. Usually we wait until later and we do them all in the ad breaks. But Acast said there's we have to start running commercials during booze news as well
Starting point is 00:25:39 which is kind of sucks. Anyway that's crazy. We have to pay the bills. So Jeff, they gave us a commercial to play. Can you play that commercial? Yeah. Ah, this is Huey Lewis from Hugh and Lewis in the news. You know there's a hot new drink going around and everybody's loving it, so you've got to give it a try.
Starting point is 00:25:57 It's a party shot that was invented on a podcast and went absolutely viral. You're probably wondering at this point, hey, Huey, what's this thing called? It's pissing shit. You got up the sour mixing dark brown rum. It's pissing shit. It's the drink of the summer. Flush one down just like. Hi, we're the news.
Starting point is 00:26:30 We want to tell you that the sloppy boys are going to be in Knoxville, Tennessee tonight, May 22nd at Open Court, and Nashville tomorrow, May 23rd at Jortsfest at the Eastside Bowl. Bye. Whoa. You don't often hear from the news. Yeah. And they wrap that song up real quick. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:51 That's cool. It's cool. There's an advertisement for our drink. I like that, but I think it's a little tacky. I mean, this is it. Hugh Lewis is a classic. I think it's cool. Yeah, also like commercials during boo's news,
Starting point is 00:27:04 it's like, and shitification has come to the post. Yes, yes. And I'm sure you're going to see or hear that song on our Instagram as well. Yeah. We're going to post it. We've got to post that because that's part of the deal. You've got to make these deals. Well, is that it for Boo's News?
Starting point is 00:27:22 That's all for me. Wrap it up. And with that out of the way, we turn our attention. attention of the drink of the day back on this format adhering episode. Yeah, rigidly. Rigidly. Back in line for us. I'm very excited.
Starting point is 00:27:44 This is a really cool drink to be doing. The drink of the day is the Mexican firing squad, tequila, lime, grenadine bitters, kind of a tequila jacquesquilla daisy here. The Mexican firing squad you've had? Never. Never had. Never heard. Never heard.
Starting point is 00:28:02 Mike. Me neither? No, neither. Let me ask you this. When you hear, with the name, Mexican firing squad, what do you think? What, any feelings? I think, are we allowed to say that? It was my first thought.
Starting point is 00:28:17 Exactly. Me too. Really? Just because it's, yeah, it sounds like, is that, is this weird? Yeah. And that's why I like this drink. I've had it before, but I've like shied away from bringing in until I looked at the history. it sounds like it's like some 1980s dark ages like gimmicky thing that's like trying to be salacious sounding but this is actually a classic cocktail from Mexico City oh oh shit there we go so Jeff you can let your woke guard down I think Tim I feel like as though I've been cured of the woke mind virus it just happened right now you had it until this very moment look at his glow is coming back it's like a veil has been lifted
Starting point is 00:29:01 He's happy. He starts like yelling slurs out the window at people. Are you there, you? Are you there, you? What? Okay, so this was invented at a swanky bar in Mexico City called La Cucaracha Club. And it was in the 1930s. And in the 30s, they had fairly recently just the less than two decades come out of the Mexican Revolution,
Starting point is 00:29:29 where firing squads were used for execution. So there's graniteen in this drink. I think it's referring to the blood or the fire of the guns. The spilled blood. Spilled blood, yeah. So they were being a little edge lordy, but at least they were doing it in the 1930s in the place where the thing happened. Jacob Edjolorty?
Starting point is 00:29:52 Jeff, you got to. Come on, that's pretty good. You got to do something. This is like maybe a whole animated series, I guess. Maybe a way of it. Yeah, we're going to cut this one short, folks. We got to work on this Jacob Edgelory thing. Everyone's, oh, like, yeah, no, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:30:09 No episodes for all these guys got work to do. Another format breaker. Sorry, folks. You see in nine months, folks. Yeah. You got to go to the new season of Euphoria and clip some salacious stuff, he says, and say, oh, great, Jacob Edge, Lordy is back. Okay.
Starting point is 00:30:27 So, this is, uh, this. This cocktail was being made at this fancy bar in the 30s in Mexico City. And then a traveling bon vivant cocktail writer, an American guy named James H. Baker came to town. He was touring Mexico and kind of writing about his travels in the culinary and cocktail world. Bordane-esque, Mike. Bordane-esque. Yes. And it sounds like he was having a kind of a boring visit in Mexico. and he felt like his guides were bringing him to stuff that they thought would impress him when it was boring.
Starting point is 00:31:03 So he split off from the group. He went to this club La Cucaraja. On the menu, there's a cockroach smoking a cigar. But that's cool. And he ordered these drinks. He got tanked on him. He loved him and he wrote about him in his cocktail book in 1939. And then that blasted it out to the world.
Starting point is 00:31:25 This drink, now I had it. You know, I've seen variations where, like, this is like a sour version, but I think the modern versions, lots of times will be a highball with some soda in there. But I've also seen the liquor swapped out. Like, Tiki Night at Mess Hall in Los Fel is they had a Nicaraguan firing squad where it was like rum instead of tequila. They served as a highball. It was very refreshing. But what we're going to do here is the Mexican firing squad via liquor.com. They have a nice straightforward recipe very close to the original, but they've sort of just.
Starting point is 00:31:59 just locked it in. You guys ready for this? Hit me. Two ounces. Blanco tequila. I've heard people use repisado, but tends to really be Blanco. Blanca, I got myself some,
Starting point is 00:32:14 ooh, some cronitos. Ooh, you got some patron. I got one of those little patron guys. Not a nip, but like the next size of it. It's like a baseball. Yeah. Still keeps the cool shape of the bottle. I like that.
Starting point is 00:32:27 Three quarter ounce lime juice. Joastalim. Freshly squeezed, Jeff. No. I won't do it. Three quarter ounce grenadine. Now, look, in the 30s, they would have been using some fancy pomegranate granite greenadine they made. Liquor.com and every blogger says try to use some fancy pomegranate grittanine. But also on the sloppy boy show, we like roses greenidine.
Starting point is 00:32:54 We're not above that. That's what I got. Yeah. Yeah. I think I have some fancy stuff for round one at least. And now this is key, four dashes Angostura bitters. So that last dash sounded too big. The last one was shooting a rope.
Starting point is 00:33:12 Add all ingredients into a shaker with ice. Shake until well-chilled strain into a rocks glass over fresh ice garnish with a lime wheel. Rocks glass, fresh ice. I love it. This sounds great. Tim, I got to say when I first heard Mexican firing squad, I was picturing like a Bandera shot. like going down the line like a firing squad, boom, boom, boom.
Starting point is 00:33:34 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Almost like the five cups. Almost like the five cups. Unlike that. People's doing the five cups. We're not hearing much about the five cups anymore. Wait, I wanted to release a five cups t-shirt, you know, and it's kind of ominous and it's kind of got an illuminati look to it.
Starting point is 00:33:51 Oh, let's do that. Let's do that. We'll do that, folks, after the break. We've got to work on Jacob Edge Lordy. a lot to do here at the LLC. Can I take us out on the break with some music? I've been working on something. I want to show you guys. I would love that, Mike. Mike, play us out. This is good.
Starting point is 00:34:08 Folks, we'll see you after this. This is good. This is a cover. This is good. He tells us this is good. Alishi Keys. Dr. Drake? Yeah, yeah. Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 00:34:36 Guess who was. back. Oh, hell yeah. We gotta play this live. Wonderful, wonderful work. Fantastic. I thought to myself, I should be able to figure out that song.
Starting point is 00:34:59 And I did. And you did? Folks, we'll be right back after these. Toronto, Buffalo, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Cleveland, Minneapolis, Chicago. You like this type of shit? You like party rock music? played by your favorite band, the sloppy boys, you gotta come see the summer tour.
Starting point is 00:35:18 Toronto, July 15th, Drake Underground, Buffalo, July 16th, Rec Room, Pittsburgh, Bottle Rocket Social Hall on July 17th. But that's not all. Detroit, Smalls on July 19th, Cleveland, Beachland Tavern, July 20th. Minneapolis, Zora Darling, July 22nd. Chicago on July 23rd. We're playing I-O-Fest at the Improv Olympic. You gotta be there.
Starting point is 00:35:48 Get the tickets online. Check us out on our socials, Instagram, everywhere else. You get the tickets. You come to the show. You're going to have a hell of a time, baby. Mexican firing squad. Let's see him. What a gorgeous.
Starting point is 00:36:26 Beautiful. Bloody red drink, eh? That's cool. It looks like just like high sea. Or not high sea. Hawaiian Punch. It looks like some high seat. It looks like some high see.
Starting point is 00:36:42 Mm-hmm. You guys got a better yield than me, as Jeff would say. Hey, nice yield. Shall we? Yeah, I got my ice made clear in there. You can't see. Yeah, we love ice made clear. I don't know if there's still our sponsors.
Starting point is 00:36:56 I love that ice made clear. Damn. Yeah, we also love Reverend guitars, baby. If you've seen us play live recently, holy shit, we look and sound cool. Ooh, we sound cool. Oh, and don't forget, badger beves, reach for the badger. Well, if you're reaching for the badger, you've reached for the bev. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:37:17 It's so true. Here we go. Oh, yeah. Wow. Okay. Oh, yeah. Now, I did use fancy, old-timey pomegranate and greenity. How are you guys over in Rose, Rosedown?
Starting point is 00:37:34 We are doing all right. Over here. This is a fun one. It's funny because I've been throwing a little roses around in the test kitchen, or not test kitchen. If I'm making drinks, just like watching movies with Kelsey or something, I will be using tequila and making sort of margaritas or something similar. And I've been using roses, but I guess I wasn't getting the proportions right because
Starting point is 00:37:59 this feels like a locked in drink. Well, you were using, they're sweetened, they're sweetened lime juice is an entirely different product than their grenadine. Right. But I'm saying like I've been throwing grenadine in instead of like simple syrup into into tequila drinks. Jeff, you've been making firing squads. But this is better. It was fantastic.
Starting point is 00:38:18 You didn't even know. Here's what's exciting to me is very simple drink. I also do love it as a high ball. That's a good looking drink. A good looking drink. But think of how many times like the margarita is the most popular cocktail in the country. It's delicious. It's wonderful.
Starting point is 00:38:36 But I don't sometimes at home. I don't make marks and I want to seem a little cooler, so I do palomas. And Badger Bev's has a delicious sparkling grapefruit I use. But I've been making so many fucking palomas that it can't, I can't just be a guy who's just only drinking palomas. This is the mental fucking palomas over here. But I think with this drink we found, the third way. Yes.
Starting point is 00:39:00 Yes. This is good. You know what I'm so happy about with this drink is I was, not in a tequila mood. And when we were going through the recipe and reminding me that we were doing quakela, I was like, oh, man, I don't feel like tequila. But this, you just don't really taste it at all. It's a nice little, it's nice.
Starting point is 00:39:23 I taste it just a little bit at the end. At the end, there's that, that no, nectary cacti flavor, and I like it. Me too. It's because it's not like, it's not harsh. It's like, it's like just coming at the tail end of this nice, Fruit punchy drink. I really like the Angostura bitters in there. And I wonder, you know, when we did the Jack Rose, we loved it.
Starting point is 00:39:45 But which is Apple, this, basically this with Apple Jack instead of tequila. But if you want to put a dash or two of Angostura in that one, that would even make more sense over there, too. Was Apple Jack the one? Was Apple Jack the drink where it was a guy who said he fell into some rotten apples and it got in his mouth? That was the Washington Apple shot. Yeah, that's right. He was, he fell into a pile of rotten apples. Some got in his mouth and it gave him an idea.
Starting point is 00:40:20 It got in his mouth. It's like the classic fake story. Like he fell into a pile of apples and some got into his mouth. A kid made it up. Oh, it got in there and then he liked the taste of it. That's like the. the acid guy who thought he was yeah, he had acid in his pocket and it rained
Starting point is 00:40:40 and he thought he was a thing of orange juice he couldn't tip over. We had a guy like that in my town though for real. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think it was from your town. Yeah, yeah. And that his friend. I had a friend in college who told me of a friend he had in high school. And this is high school. The kid told him that he told his friends he had a washing machine that would like wash his clothes, dry his clothes,
Starting point is 00:41:04 fold it and bring it to his room. He had the robot from the Jetsons? Yeah, but like in high school, like trying to get people to believe that. It's just like, what are you? No way. No way. Ah, the firing squad.
Starting point is 00:41:22 Good. We need a story for our hit drink, the drink of the summer, piss and shit. It's a shot that's pineapple and sour mix topped with dark rum in a shot glass, flush it down your throat. But yeah, we heard this one.
Starting point is 00:41:36 Yeah. We heard the Huey, well, the commercial. The commercial, yeah. Sucks. It's not enough to just say, like, these guys worked really hard, and they have, they're very smart, and they worked hard, and they created this drink. We have to get some lore going that it was like, we were walking and we fell in a toilet. And some got into our mouths?
Starting point is 00:41:56 No, we, some got into our eyeballs, and we saw an idea for the drink. Oh, okay. We saw them close to the alchemy. We would never put real shit in our own mouths. The honest story is that, yeah, it was that you, we were at Jeff Soutes making the amber moon, and it was yellow and brown, and we said, hey, piss and shit. We'll come up with something better for that. And folks, don't tell that story yet. We don't have an official story.
Starting point is 00:42:20 We were walking in the sewer. Right. Yes. Yeah, I like this. Trying to find the Ninja Turtles. Yes. Talked about before. Yes.
Starting point is 00:42:28 I like that. Good. Good. Yeah. This is good. This is very good. Slipped and fell on a turn. Ouse.
Starting point is 00:42:38 Turning us into an injurels. And then April O'Neill was like, hey, you three, come on over here, big boys. Come on over here, big boys. I got two twin sisters. Look how yellow my jumpsuit is. What? I have two twin sisters, May and June. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:42:58 And look how brown one of their hair is. It was a red hair, a blonde, brown hair. That's what the, that came from. This myth could use some work, but, you know. It could, it could. But we just need to be told by, like, a guy who's like, behind a curtain. He's a beated curtain is there? Oh, I like that.
Starting point is 00:43:21 I think I'd like that even more. Speaking of, like, drinks we've invented, have you guys ever been out in the last year? I can't think of any time I've been out at a bar and just seen people. drinking the five cups. That's a tough one to order. You kind of have to, it's like you need, first of all, you need five shots, which is tough for a guy for a bartender.
Starting point is 00:43:42 And then also like you need the space, table space and like, because this is sort of a ceremony, original, yeah. Right. You have to have a red curtain, then you have to have a beaded curtain.
Starting point is 00:43:52 Yeah, yeah, it's a lot. It's kind of sad because it just lets you know how many people are walking around with all five regions of the tongue, unstimulated. I know.
Starting point is 00:44:03 It's fucking depressing. Right. So all has not become one. The spectrum of tastes have not made the future of the past yet. Exactly. Exactly. That sucks. I'll look into,
Starting point is 00:44:12 I'll be walking around in New York and I'll pop my head to a bar and see no one doing five, doing the five cups. And I'll be like, all their drinks are in one cup. It's crazy. And I'm like, you're all dead.
Starting point is 00:44:22 You don't even know it. Jeff, you and I were doing that somewhere. We were, it was on tour somewhere we were like walking through something to say joking about something. Is that from something? Yeah, I feel like it's, I feel like it's
Starting point is 00:44:38 from a lot of things like soil and green and shit. The way that you're yelling is very poltergeist to me like the headstones. Oh yes, that is. Yeah. I'm thinking of yeah, that is, it does sound like, I'm thinking of like they live or something. In the movie network when the guy yells on his window, he's like,
Starting point is 00:44:54 I can't take it anymore. But it's not that. Mad as hell. I'm retired from acting. I'm merely an award-winning writer at this point. But if I ever had to do, like, Tim, bring in a monologue for your audition, I would do the poltergeist, the headstone breakdown. You switch to headstones. That would be so fun to just be in a casting office,
Starting point is 00:45:17 just yelling like that. When I auditioned for Rachel Bloom's show, that. Crazy ex-girlfriend? Crazy ex-girlfriend, yeah. And it was like, I'm not a theater, a musical theater person. And they, right, it was like, it's like you have to prepare, you know, do the scene and then prepare a song and sing. And I think I sang like, call me out or something. That's so funny.
Starting point is 00:45:43 They're sniffing out the people who don't know like show tunes and stuff. Like you're supposed to do like a Vita. I know, but I think it was maybe Tim on your advice. You were like, well, just, I mean, maybe just sing something you're good at or have fun with because you're not going to do like a show. You don't know those songs. Right. And in auditions, it's like, if you're going to be bad, it's like, you may as well be yourself and then be wrong for the role as opposed to like trying to become some
Starting point is 00:46:07 other thing and just making a fucking fool of yourself. I feel like we didn't even get to the song or something. Maybe we did it. But it was just like the whole thing didn't really go so well. Man, it's a pet peeve of mine. This is my piss people off, but maybe not here in the sloppy boys. When you go to karaoke night with a group of friends and you get. people doing musicals, musicals stuff.
Starting point is 00:46:31 Yep, you don't like that. That's like a dividing line for me where it's, you know, I always just thought it was pop music. And then you get some people who get up and do laymise or something like that. I'm like, that's, I don't mind that. You don't like when the two guys do Jean Valjean and Javert? I don't like that. See, Tim, the closest you can get is when Tim does like a Disney thing.
Starting point is 00:46:51 Yeah, and that's, and he's doing, he's being fun with it. He's doing like a whole new world or something. Jeff, I don't mind your thing. people are like good or having fun with or if it's songs we know like if it's uh pulling deep cuts that's deep cuts of any genre is no thanks and i have heard alan mccloud fucking crush uh don't cry for me argentina and stuff like i think it's a case by case but but i do feel like i am a held hostage if i'm like oh no it's one of those musical groups and that and they're all loving doing this going down this vein i say get me out of here i'm going to go grab a fresh height let me know when my
Starting point is 00:47:27 When machine head is up. It's a banger. Yeah, I know it's a banger. Remember when we were in Chicago, Eric Rayhill told us to go to the California Clipper Club? Yeah. And we loved it. And all of the singers there were fucking fantastic professional singers.
Starting point is 00:47:44 But it didn't have the vibe Jeff's talking about of like an insight. We just like sat back and enjoyed the show. It was amazing. There's this place in the village. I think it's called Marie's Crisis. And you go in there. It's like a cool little. bar like low, you know, go down the steps, everything. And it's a bar where I was there on
Starting point is 00:48:02 Halloween a couple, four years ago. And people were, it was like packed. So maybe it's not like this every night. But people were in costumes and singing along and stuff. And there's a guy at a piano playing and people are singing like, I don't know if they were signing up or like one at a time coming up and like belting out these Broadway tunes. And I was like, this is really cool. I hope I know some. And I was like, did not know anything. They were all way deep concerts. And I'd like, like I said, don't know too much. But it was really fun to just be there. It was fun to see people like really belting it out.
Starting point is 00:48:33 When you're like a piano person at one of those bars and it's like you got a routine and you're also no 500 songs. So when people come up and like you probably got regulars and you kind of know that they want to do Kiss for Morose or whatever. But I love the idea of like doing karaoke at a place where it's a live pianist. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it was cool. It wasn't even karaoke.
Starting point is 00:48:57 it was people just knew the song. I don't even think they were read them. There were probably people who like audition for these plays and shit. Off the dome. Off the dome. Off the costumed dome for some of us. Well, you guys still sipping your drinks?
Starting point is 00:49:10 Because I could vamp for a little bit if you want. I finished mine. I was going to tell you, I have a story. I was going to save it for the next segment, but I could tell it now. Mike's still sipping. I'm still sipping too. Yeah, I'm still sipping.
Starting point is 00:49:24 Yeah, great. You guys saw Michael. we talked about it last week. You know, folks, you can feel how you feel, how you want to feel about it. You know, this is a despicable, you know, piece of propaganda. But the Michael, the Michael biopic.
Starting point is 00:49:37 Speaking of, we got to go see despicable me this song. It's not, not an excuse. But just so, you know, we did go see it as, ironically, as part of a birthday party where someone wanted to ironically go to this dumb movie. But we still gave her money to a bad cause. Continue, Jack. We still gave the Jackson family, you know,
Starting point is 00:49:54 1650 a pop or whatever the fuck. it was. And I told you that when I went, I stayed to the very end and there was a post-credits thing. I was just really happy to see. I was just really happy to see the sloppy boys mentioned. Yeah. But someone didn't sit right with me. I was like, man, that was so weird. I got to go back. I got to go back and see it. Whoa. Wait, do you want to talk about what happened last time? So last time, at the end of the episode, it shows Michael in its modern day and he's listening to a podcast. He's talking about his favorite part of the sloppy boys, all, see. And it ends up being Meelan.
Starting point is 00:50:28 And he's, and modern day Michael, alive and well sings about our very own Meelan Patel. And we were shocked. Just to be clear, this scene started with a gray jerry curl, right? Yeah, close on a gray jerry curl. Close on that, close. And he's going, he, he, he.
Starting point is 00:50:44 He was struggling. That's his actual laugh, too. You thought it was part of a singing, like a scat thing? No, he was laughing. He, he, he, he, he. He, he, he. He's laughing his ass off. So here I am.
Starting point is 00:50:59 I'm back at the movie theater, but here's what I did. Remember how once upon a time I was talking about, talking about if I ever want to see a movie and I don't want to contribute to it as a cause, you go to the look cinemas in Glendale. They don't really police the seats so much.
Starting point is 00:51:10 Oh, yeah, yeah. So I go back to the look and I'm like, I just want to sort of catch the end and I walk in. They're sort of wrapping up the movie. The credits are going. Everybody's walking out. I'm like, nobody wants to stay.
Starting point is 00:51:21 And they're like, nah, we don't know how we feel about him. And then I don't know how we feel. I stay to the end. And once again, credits are over. Nobody in the theater. Just me. Gray Jerry Curl. What the fuck?
Starting point is 00:51:36 Wait a minute. So I'm expecting you're to see the same scene as you saw last time. It's a different... Same movie. That's what I thought. What the fuck? Camera's pulling out. He's not listening to his iPhone.
Starting point is 00:51:51 He's watching TV. It's like 1997. It's not modern day. It's 1997. you. But he still got the great Jerry curl. He's laughing. He's watching something on the TV.
Starting point is 00:52:04 You can't really see what it is, but it's animated, right? And then he says, he's like, I'm going to sing about it. I don't know. He just says like, I'm going to sing. He says that just to whoever. He's going to sing about what he's watching. I'm going to sing about it. Sometimes I do that.
Starting point is 00:52:23 Seemingly to know one. You sing about it. I forgot to mention when I went. I was watching Widows Bay this past week, and I did sing about it. I'm watching the show. Hey, I'm going to sing about it. I do that all the time anyway. Well, you must have known because I'm sitting there wondering, what's he watching?
Starting point is 00:52:40 What's so funny? What's he watching? What's he watching? What's he watching? And he, and, uh, I'm going to sing about it. He, he, he, he. And then this happened. So I die from my phone, right?
Starting point is 00:52:53 This is what he says. Just me. It makes him so happy when he says fire, like, fire. Yeah, yeah. But he's a delight, too. Yeah, well, he thinks. That's what my MJ thinks, sure. Wow.
Starting point is 00:54:02 And it must have been, they must have been, it must have been watching the feature do America because he says, he says, he's got the X5 in his back pocket or something like that. Yeah, I didn't, that's, that's the line that I was going to ask you about, just since you're so close to the material. He's got the X5 in the back of his pants. That was the chip from the, that was the McGuffin and Beavis and But I'd Do America. That's right. That's right. That's right. That was great. That was exciting. It's just such a weird choice from this movie, like to have these post-credit scenes that are so different than the rest of the time. One's different screenings. Like that's the clue would do that. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:54:41 Well, like I said, sinners did it and people loved it, Tim. So. But that wasn't post-credits, I don't think. Right. Right. Yeah. One of the many pre-credit scenes. Yeah, okay. Okay, so you get that. You get that.
Starting point is 00:54:56 Well, hold on. It was post the opening credits. Aha. Yeah, okay, yeah. Okay. I just think that since last week we're talking about this, I learned that the movie Michael, the reason it was so samey and it's just hammering the relationship between Michael and his dad so long.
Starting point is 00:55:14 It was like there was a lot of stuff cut out of their, from the script that was because the Jackson Estate was fighting over some of the stuff I feel like there's so much character in these post-credit scenes that the main body of the film would have been could have some nuance and it also feels like they've taken
Starting point is 00:55:34 in the movie Michael they try to make what the audience sort of knows about Michael Jackson they try to get as like realistic to the sort of expectation as possible and then in these post credit scenes. Yeah. It's like this is a side of MJ
Starting point is 00:55:50 no one has ever seen. Right. It's also kind of odd that like. It's exciting. That song, like that the track musically, it is used in the movie. He gets bloods and crips together
Starting point is 00:56:01 and he sings about gang violence and is a song called Beat It. But now he covers that song, right? Yeah. He covers that well in the movie. But but like there's a lot about that Trump being written. It's weird.
Starting point is 00:56:12 Then also he gets the idea from a, to sing about Mealyn from Arpad from the Sloppy Boys LLC or he gets the idea to sing about Beavis and Butthead and then just sings to the same melody. I wonder to him which is the hero one, you know, which is- Maybe they're so familiar that he just thinks in these melodies. Yeah. Oh, that's true.
Starting point is 00:56:32 That's actually probably true. What, what I'm sort of stepping back and thinking about like the, the filmmaking process, the songwriting process, but the film, the fact that filmmakers did two versions, it's like, right. It's like they thought of two versions and, like, couldn't decide which one to do so they didn't both. And they gave one to the look cinema and. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:54 But they were like, we've got two really funny ideas. We can't do both of the same theater. I don't know if it's meant to be funny. Mike, I think they're just. Oh, I thought it is very funny. I thought it very laughable. I think it's a strange move for any creative individual to have two ideas for the same thing and then just do them both. which you know folks we're talking about that over on the uh the patreon we're talking about
Starting point is 00:57:20 the prequels right all this month the star wars prequels and we're seeing how some of the movies you'd see them in the theaters one way and different versions or have different things oh puppet yoda versus uh cg yoda yeah yeah and it's like give me the real just give me the one what's the one definitive do it good and do it once so that's why yeah this this uh post credits michael thing is a fucking mess well i mean I mean, I hope it's not still in theaters next week, and I have to hear another one of these fucking songs. I hope so, too. I hope you don't have to go there.
Starting point is 00:57:51 I hope your keys are in your, you need to get a carabiner. For my keys. Yeah. Free keys. Free keys, of course. Damn. Well, I'm finally done my Mexican firing squad, and I would love another. Yeah, I'm going to do a do another.
Starting point is 00:58:04 You know what I'm going to do? What are you going to change it up? Well, I'm going to join you guys with the roses grenadine, but I'm also, I'm going to get a, I'm going to get myself a fucking high ball glass. I'm had soda. make a highball out of this fucker. Ooh, a little fizzy would be nice. Highball. Fezzy wig.
Starting point is 00:58:19 Reminds me of the fall highball. Now that's a good drink. Yes, Tim's going to use a highball. Highball. I don't know how I'm going to switch it up. I might not. Ooh. Oh, you know what I'm going to?
Starting point is 00:58:33 I'm going to switch it up by doing orange angostura, or orange bitters. I think I like the sound of that. That's good. Yeah, we'll see. All right, folks, we're going to make round tune when we come back, final thoughts Be there F on the page
Starting point is 00:58:54 guys I have a major admission to make Oh oh You know how on IMDB there's IMDB Goofs Yeah Yeah
Starting point is 00:59:14 What do we call the goofs On the pod Here at the sloppy boys Zells LLC Hmm Um dribbles maybe Uh
Starting point is 00:59:24 Miss Sips No no That's good You nailed on the first take This is an official Sloppy Boys dribble Uh I
Starting point is 00:59:30 I accidentally made my first round with twice the grenadine and twice the lime juice. That's why, Tim, you said you got such a good yield. I didn't do three quarter ounce of each. I did an ounce and a half of each. I loved it. So I may, I expect that this drink will be a little more balanced. I won't like it as much.
Starting point is 00:59:46 You're not going to taste, you're going to taste tequila this time. Yeah. So you didn't have any tequila taste. No. Yeah. Well, it was just like way more sweet and sour for like a little kid palate.
Starting point is 00:59:56 Yeah. But at least the sweet and sour were in ratio with each other. Yes. but I will say that was good. I did like that very much. Look at this beautiful highball I made. Oh, yeah. Oh, look at the gradient.
Starting point is 01:00:07 Doesn't that look like a summer refresher? Yeah, it does. It kind of looks like a tequila sunrise. I put the orange Angostore Bitters in here and they're good. Oh, smart move. I like that. Ooh, smart. Yeah, it's good.
Starting point is 01:00:23 Tays good. Sips? Wonderful is a highball, wonderful. You put a little, what, you put in for the Fizz? Soda. Just club soda. But I'll tell you this, folks,
Starting point is 01:00:35 in the debate between the fancy pomegranate of grenadine or roses electric red grenadine, I switched to roses this time and you're adding four dashes of Angostura bitters, which is kind of a lot. It still tastes fairly fancy even if you use roses.
Starting point is 01:00:53 So don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. This is a boy. climb down off that ledge, folks. I mean, this could be a drink of a, maybe not this summer, but a drink of the summer. A drink of a summer.
Starting point is 01:01:11 Well, yeah, it's like a better, it's better than the dirty Shirley and the drink was one. And it was one. I think that the name is getting in the way. I think that a lot of people with Jeff's woke mind virus are afraid to say it or people
Starting point is 01:01:24 who are afraid of violent things. You know what? Who I blame? I blame the, Irish car bomb, which we now just kind of call the Dennis bomb, because that is more insensitive to have this, like, silly novelty drink based on like a very specific set of tragedies. As opposed to this one, yeah, there were people, many, many people executed, and I'm sure that was very, very, very sad.
Starting point is 01:01:49 But you're just kind of referring, it's not about any one, you know, it's not about any one group's death. It's the, it's like the practice of having a firing squad. Right. It's like calling it a gun, you know? You wouldn't get sad if it was the American gun. But if it was the pistol. Like next week we're going to do Epstein Island Punch.
Starting point is 01:02:06 And we're going to hear so much shit about all that. It's basically this, but bigger. I don't even know what that joke means. All right. Your final thoughts. Tim, take it away. This is a banger. I think for me, this is an order again.
Starting point is 01:02:21 I'm teetering on Stone Cold Classic because, folks, you know, I've made so many margarias and Palomas. that I'm ready to retire them and become, hey, you want a firing squad? You want a firing squad? Yeah. Yes, yes. I told you that.
Starting point is 01:02:36 Yeah. I texted you on the way over. I've told you so many times. You need. Well, let's go through because I think we should rename it. But by giving me your, give us your thoughts. Order again for me.
Starting point is 01:02:47 This is fun. I had no idea. This is what it was going to be like. And I'm happy. Yeah. It's a banger. Folks, make another one. And don't be afraid double up the sweet
Starting point is 01:02:55 and double up the sour. That's even. better. It's better for people with a less refined palate. Better for all ages. Better for those who don't want to taste the alcohol and get drunk very quickly. Yeah. Which we do not recommend.
Starting point is 01:03:12 So what do you call it if it's well, not? I mean, here's, the weird thing is the margarita evolved from the daisy. And then the daisy basically as it's, all of these are sours. The sweet thing in the margarita is quantro, whereas the sweet thing in the daisy was grenadine,
Starting point is 01:03:33 but it was like brandy and then they switched to tequila. So we are drinking a daisy, a tequila daisy. Here's the issue. Mike and I remember, this is just for the listeners. Right, right. Of course. Here's my problem, though, Jeff. If we change the name, we're softening the name, we're making it more palatable to the public.
Starting point is 01:03:49 But this drink, the Mexican firing squad, was invented. At what cost. Right. It was invented in Mexico City at La Cucaracha by most likely. a Mexican bartender or owner, who are we to whitewash his drink? You don't just want to make it more palatable for the snowflakes. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:04:06 The same way that I don't want to take out swears out of the captions for birthday boy sketches. But have you been doing it anyway? Sometimes. Have you been saying segs and corn and stuff like that? No, I think that's whack. What's corn porn porn? Corn is porn. But if it does hurt your reach and it did hurt the reach of the Mexican firing squad, I would say.
Starting point is 01:04:28 I mean, here we are getting to it on episode 290 something when this is like, so, I mean, what a simple, this was a no shop cocktail for me. I had everything in my house. Yeah. I drank it. I loved it. And when I added soda, it's a summer porch pounder that I can't wait to share with my friends by the pool. By the porch. This is great.
Starting point is 01:04:54 Jeff, what are your thoughts? Did you say it? Oh, I don't know. It's an order again. I love it. Order again and again even. And it's so easy. I've had a lot of people lately asking me,
Starting point is 01:05:03 like, Jeff, what's your favorite drink? And I kind of hem and ha because it's like, it's like kind of asking like what your favorite Beatles song is or something. Love me do.
Starting point is 01:05:14 Yeah. Alan Rigbee. Opposite ends of the spectrum. Octopus's Garden. But, like, I probably, my favorite drink is,
Starting point is 01:05:27 a Mai Tai, but I almost never have a Mai Tai because they're a pain in the ass to make. So I tell people like, ah, margarita, because I don't know, I don't know, you know, what are we taking into account here? I think that's a good favorite. I think that's cool. I think that it's like you're sticking to your guns.
Starting point is 01:05:43 Like, it's, that's the classic for a reason. Yeah, like around the house I make the most old fashions and margaritas or even just tequila soda with a lot of lime. But yeah, favorite pie in the sky? I drink Mai Tai's every day if I could. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:59 I'd bathe in them. Why? What were we talking about? If you like, I order again, I think for you, yes. Yes. Yes, okay. Which I think you already answered, but I was like, Jeffrey, why do you tell your thoughts?
