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! And Tim Kalpakis. What is up, Halloween edition? Halloween edition. I was wondering if you would host as dracula the whole time jeff no i will not do that never oh i'm sorry the count from zesmy street so okay when i said halloween edition i was talking about it was What Is Up Halloween edition.

But is this also a Halloween edition of the whole podcast? Oh, yeah. We should say the whole episode is about Halloween. It's Halloween time. Great. Well, that's perfect. That coincides. Yeah, with the What Is Up edition.

I see you're both in the spirit. Yeah, we're both dressed as... Well, I'm a... I love Turtles kid, and Tim is dressed as the Suicide Squad. Yeah, everybody but Harley Quinn. That's right. Every little, a piece of each.

And me, damn Daniel. Ooh, back at it with the white vans. That would be a good one. Hey, speaking of white vans, we should get in this because this is kind of a spooky time of year, spooky stuff. Squid Game! Are we watching Squid Game? Come on. You saw they all wear the white

shoes. I have not seen. Not seen, not heard. Tim, come on. Tim, have you been watching Squid Game? I've not seen, but I know I'm gonna, and even by the time this episode drops, I will have seen it, so let's just say yes. I've been watching Squid Game. I've not seen, but I know I'm going to. And even by the time this episode drops, I will have seen it. So let's just say yes, I've seen it. I love it.

I'm a huge fan. Okay, so we can talk about what's happening in episode six right now. Yes. I did not see that when that squid won. Yep. Won the whole game. Yep. Well, let me tell you about this show.

This is one of those shows that I, you know, everything usually happens on TV. And I go, whoa, what was that? What is everyone talking about? Oh, I've seen people memeing about Ted Lasso for a month. Let me watch this show. It's too late. Sure. I got on this one right on time, guys.

I'm riding the wave. And ooh, it feels good. I am up to date. So the impression that i get is that it is parasite dicky barrett stop oh the impression that i get what's better my dracula or my dicky barrett you think let's see well say say uh welcome to my my castle as Dickie Barrett and then say the impression that I get as Dracula. Welcome to my castle. Okay.

That's the impression that I get. Yeah, Dracula's better. I personally, I think they're both a 10 out of 10 and it's a draw. Knock them out of the park. Damn. Wait, so the deal with Squid Game is like it's parasite like right or no

interesting or like hunger games like does the central metaphor check out um yes good good good good you know the whole show there's a there's a show but it's what the show is commenting on that is so for me moving parasite is like a little wormy thing that you know it's a little wormy animal and then a and a squid is like a little wormy animal so yeah right you're very similar pieces of content uh right you're right well parasite doesn't necessarily mean a wormy thing a parasite could be if anything what about a tapeworm? A tapeworm, that's right. Thank you.

I'm pitching a thing called a paramecium puzzle. Okay. Well, I'm going to close the conversation on Squid Game right now because you guys haven't seen it. Hold on. Worm war. Worm war, but could you... I mean, that's good.

Go ahead, Jeff. You got one last one, then I'm shutting it. Okay, mitochondria. The powerhouse of the cell? Yes. The mighty mitochondria? Uh-huh. I was thinking...

No, no, I'm going to change it to midichlorian. Oh, okay. So that's the Star Wars world. Still maze, though. Yeah, still maze. And you get through the walls with a lightsaber uh so i'm closing uh the talk about uh squid game right now but i will say for those halloween people listening who don't have a an outfit yet you get a few friends together and get some green jumpsuits you you're, you're, you gotta, you gotta costume. Green jumpsuits. They're like Adidas jumpsuits, right?

They don't have the Adidas brand on it, but they look pretty cool. Well, if you, let's say you do that and then everyone looks at you and thinks you're run DMC, what are you going to do? All the better because it's nice to have people talking about you at a party. That's true. Any publicity is good publicity. Right. Especially at a party when the newspaper of the party comes out. No, I don't know when that happens.

That happens at every party. No, I'm not going to go on that stupid walk with you, Michael. Oh, I'm sorry. Just because I spend a lot of time at Washington Post parties. You're going to spend a lot of time prying my foot out of your ass in a second. Why do you think I moved halfway across the country? All the way across the country. To protect your ass? So I can make these types of comments

without being under a threat of a boot ass. What do you guys think about the concept of bibibip? You know, stuff like that. Should be fine. We've got enough time. Yeah, I'm fine with that.

Booze news, hit it. Back up in the podcast. By myself, I decided to place a couple digital recorders on a chair in this old organ. Okay, I've got two recorders rolling up here. I'm up responses almost immediately. face squeaker we're talking brown hair who did that right after i asked that question this camera's audio picked up this response who did that what what what is that holy oh my god holy okay so not a theme song per se

didn't even stick with the high-pitched funny thing at the end i okay i i played that one because it's halloween and this looks scary but So basically, who was this? Company K Audio, a slophead emailed and said, you know... I like that name, Company K. Company K. You said, Sloppy Boys, you had in your Whiskey Sour episode, you had Satan recorded a

haunted theme song for Booze News. I remember that. So Company K said, so I hired Zach Baggins, ghost hunter, to check and see if your podcast is haunted. So it sounds like our podcast is quite frankly. What were the first little quotes that he had spliced in there? I heard a little squeaker and then brown air. All right.

Okay. I don't know what was going on there. Who's Zach Bagans? He's a ghost hunter. Is this a new thing? It's Nick Kroll's character is based on him. Oh, okay. Ghost Bouncers is based on Ghost Hunters.

Is that the name of the real show? Yes, yeah, Ghost Hunters. Yes, yes, yes. And it's in its probably 12th season now, and they're all silly. Tim and I were just talking about the Mythbusters. If they still have, even if they're still on, we don't know. And if they have myths to bust anymore. They've all been busted.

Did they ever bust that myth of Zeus? That Zeus was a god? The king of the gods? Zeus, king of gods or Olympic dick? If you have a Booze News theme song, send it send it to the sloppy boys podcast at gmail.com here's what i want to talk about today guys there's a jim beam commercial that um it's not new it's not brand new but i only really saw it recently i was watching some post-season baseball and they played this theme this uh commercial a lot and i saw but have either of you guys seen a jim beam commercial that's sort of

selling high balls it's kind of saying getting a beam ginger high ball oh that rings a bell i can't remember if it was jim beam it was i do remember like a liquor that was like oh yeah i guess they're don't usually do that well tim i must be living under a rock because this is all news to me perfect um i ripped the audio and i just thought it was like kind of a concept that we've discussed on the show and you know i'm kind of like a culture vulture so i kind of soak up media and then i kind of you know uh well soak up media soak in sort of of, you know, well, soak up media. Soak in sort of the Mormon sex sense. Do you think the ad group was like figuring out this commercial if they finally landed on something and Eminem popped things like, here's a concept that works?

Yes. Okay. Go ahead. I'm not joking. You're joking, but I do think that. Okay. listen close. Hit play on this. This is a guy walks into a bar. He's looking to order a drink,

and then the people chiming in are weirdos around the bar talking to him. Hit it. Another beer or something different? How about this super filling IPA? Aged with goat's milk. Or a Bavarian V-tail with a hint of Haffenpaff. Yeah. Son, you want a dark beer?

Goat's milk. Dark beer! How about a Bibin ginger highball? Yeah, that sounds good. and then the tagline was like something different or try something new or something like that um i like i do like the uh music at the end yeah you were kind of getting down yeah uh the way that you were dancing you reminded me of um john travolta oh god disco is dead tim in pulp fiction it was a teenage i feel like that could have been a commercial for the last like 40 years like you could have told me that was from like 1980 or 70 and be like yep that makes sense it's very funny

to set like jim beam is a bourbon brand bourbon it's it's kind of just an interesting snapshot of like what's going on because jim beam is so popular and a whiskey ginger is not a it shouldn't feel like some crazy thing but they're selling bourbon by saying beer guys are obnoxious beer guys are pretentious beer is bad and we've kind of talked on this podcast um we we're kind of fans of the crispy light beers the cold yellows oh yeah and uh although mike recently you you said you've been drinking some ipas i'm off on an ipa quest 15 years late yes oh my gosh the ipas are flowing okay so maybe this doesn't apply to you but for Jeff, I was just thinking if it's that safe, Jim beam is not going to take any risks.

If a mainstream commercial on network television during a baseball playoff playoff game is going to say like beers dumb. I feel like that, that it's probably such a safe observation right now. And that, that hard seltzer has beaten beers ass so bad that i'm now emboldened in my prediction about the return of beer sometime right right right i don't think it'll be ipas and i don't think it'll be fancy stouts i think the uh like this is when we come out with like slop

light or some little can that is a little crispy cracker i think beers beer is gonna bounce back beer is bouncing baby uh i i can yeah i can tell you right now just being on the forefront of the ipa scene out there and that ain't coming back anytime soon so you're on the forefront and it's bad it's bad out there it's just it's just so played it's just not fun everyone i order one and people like oh god why don't you have a jack and ginger or the jim and ginger i like you and your ipa friends going every night and sit really sad just drinking down your ipas and silence ipa friends we like the hops i mean can you imagine being tasked with like okay we, we have Jim Beam and our whole approach now is try something different. It's like you're the most old school established, like there's nothing unique or new about you whatsoever.

And to have to position it against like, you know that beer aged in goat's milk? Yeah. Come on. Yeah, that commercial feels so out of date. And it also feels like really weirdly weirdly low budget, doesn't it? The bar doesn't look interesting. You'd think a big brand like Jim Beam would be a cool looking thing. You've been watching a lot of those big budget movies and stuff.

I'm watching Squid Game. Oh, that's true. You know what the budget was for it? Do you know what the budget was on that? I actually don't. I don't either. No. Okay.

Hey, Jim Beam. Jim Beam has the Jim Beam bar at Dodger Stadium, and we went there. That's so funny for them to think they're anti-establishment, and it's literally the Jim Beam corporate bar at a stadium. Fuck off. We had a good... Where did we get there? It wasn't like the fireball jim beam which is not bad but it was like the you you bought us around a peach peach oh yeah was i there for that possibly believe it and they no you were not

there jeff this was recent and they each came in a dodgers collectible shaker so i now have like 20 of those like cocktail shakers in my house. I meant to get that when I was, damn I was meant to get that when I was back in LA. Good luck getting it from my little grubby little mitts. Ouch.

Ouch. Okay, beer's coming back. Wrap it up. Hee haw. Oh sorry Jeff, I stepped on it in I don't have my normal setup okay no no it's fine it's fine it's fine well one of you guys

mentioned that it's a certain time of year oh yeah yes October does this time of year have any sort of like a certain demeanor to it? A little creepy, a little sort of ghostly and pumpkin-y, pumpkins in the air. Yeah, yeah. A gourd.

A gourd. A gourd, yeah. Gordon Ramsay certainly is always on TV. Gorging on gourds. Folks, it's Halloween. on tv gorging on gourds folks it's halloween last year on this day we did the zombie because it was the scariest named cocktail on the iba cocktail list this year we went for the second scariest named cocktail on the iba list the corpse reviver number two yeah this thing creates zombies reviver number two stop it i'm not going anywhere with it i'm more scared corpse

reviver sounds kind of scary but number two is opens us up to some unknowns that scare me as well why is it number two who is number one who does number two work for austin powers um do you know why number two i assume we'll get into it podcast like ours it's because of shit oh no the main ingredient is a giant shit chunk garnished with a turd um you've had you've heard what's your deal have not either heard nor had i've heard man i not had not had i have heard it is i mean it's tough because i've heard of it yes because i had to go out and buy the ingredients for it so yes i've heard of it you heard of it this morning when i texted you yeah okay um you see this at like

the tonga room and stuff right well that's what's so beseeching i have heard i have not had my assumption jay was that this was a tiki drink much like the the zombie or you know um the suffering bastard or something like that i was like it's got to be a tiki drink it's not tisn't oh it's not bummer what is it what is it well where is this on the is it a an old school, a new era, a contemporary classic? Old? Oh, hey, the IBA cocktail website is back and now it's searchable. Oh. You can search.

That's great. It doesn't make you refresh it just to get in. No, I did hit a different glitch that was funny, but I'm just thankful that now you can type in corpse and it'll bring you to the corpse reviver and you don't have to just like, you know, scroll forever, but it's one of the, uh,

it's an old one. I think it's, I think it's an unforgettable cause this is old, but classic, but here's what this, uh, yeah, here's what this has to do with the suffering bastard.

Corpse reviver. It's a hangover. It is a hangover cure. Yeah. Reviving the corpse. However, we'll get to the ingredients, but, but isn't it funny that it's like a basically a gin based cocktail a little stem glass that doesn't feel very hangover i wouldn't wake up in the morning and have a little martini well tim don't forget my beloved singapore sling that's a that's a gin based uh tiki outlier yes

but it's got pineapple juice in it i I would rather drink that one in the morning than wake up and have a little stiffy. Wait, now is this a tiki outlier? One time I did wake up and have a little stiffy. Yeah, I bet you did. Once. Wait, is this- Leave that between me and my dick doctor, okay?

No, I'm not going to get into that. Professor Schlong. Professor? It should have been doctor. He teaches my dick how to stand at end. Stand up, my boy. Stand up for yourself. It's like dog training school.

End up, my boy. Mike, you were saying? Now, is this a tiki outlier? Not even an outlier. No tiki connection. No tiki whatsoever. Okay, so that was my common tiki outlier? Not even an outlier. No tiki connection. No tiki whatsoever. Okay. So that was my common tiki confusion here.

Yeah. There's a lot of tiki confusions. I quite come. Okay. Here's the deal. In the 1800s, there were a bunch of corpse revivers. It was a funny thing to say that hair of the dog drinks were corpse revivers. Hair of the dog that bit you, right?

In the old days, if a dog bit bit you you'd like eat some of its fur or something uh so that became drinking you drink a little bit of the very same spirit that got you drunk yeah um in the 1800s if uh hangover drinks were called corpse revivers now this particular one number two of many was made famous by the savoy cocktail book this particular one, number two of many, was made famous by the Savoy Cocktail Book. This is one of these historic books like the Jerry Thomas Guide, like one of the three or four really important cocktail books. But this one was written by a very famous bartender named Harry Craddock, who was born in the 1800s. But he's like this English guy who spent a lot of time in america he worked at knickerbocker hotel in the hoffman house in new york and the holland

hotel in ohio but then during prohibition 1920s he went back to his native england he got a job at the savoy hotel uh the america bar that's kind of funny that he had spent time in America. And then they said, Hey, you'll fit in great here at the America bar, you dick. And so because of prohibition, he was working in London, created a bunch of cocktails. There's one on the IBA list. It's kind of popular called the white lady. Have you ever seen that? I've seen on the list, but I've seen on the list but i've seen on the list it's very similar to this i think he's kind of a one-trick pony because it's another kind of like gin uh triple sec type of uh uh cocktail but so he invented this he put his number two into this

book and so of all the corpse revivers this is really the only one that like stayed around and it made it onto the iba list and hey we're talking about it so number two is number one no number two is number one in our hearts he came up with number two lots of different people came up with like eight different ones like trader vick had one and uh you'll you'll see them around i think number one is maybe the only other one that has a following. I think most of them are just fully dead. We should come up with one. It would be like the Sloppy Boys.

Corpse Survivor number 69. Yeah. You take the bottle of Cointreau and the bottle of gin, and you kind of mash them together. Oh, wait. So did Harry Craddock, he invented all the the corpse survivors or or you were saying that like trader vick had his own corpse survivor yeah any hangover cure was a corpse reviver everybody did one harry maybe he had multiple but number two was his his claim to fame

and if you want to know what's in the motherfucker, an ounce of gin. Oh, this is nice. He made it easy on us. Love it. I'm liking these in general. This reminds me of kind of like the yellow bird or the tuxedo. I'm having fun with these little easy, stiff, little strong cocktails. This one is an ounce of gin. Great.

An ounce of Cointreau. They're saying by name, Cointreau, not just any old triple sec. Then here's the interesting one. An ounce of Lelay Blanc. Are you guys familiar with this stuff? I am now. I had to chase it down. Not at the grocery store.

I bought it. I was happy to get to buy it because this stuff is in a Vesper martini. So when we get around to making that, we'll have the stuff. And I've always wanted to try a Vesper. But basically, it's vermouth-esque. this stuff is in a vesper martini so when we get around to making that we'll have the stuff and i've always wanted to try a vesper but basically it's vermouth-esque it's like a white wine liqueur so this should be after it's open this should probably be put in the fridge i'm gonna go ahead and say yes and you could you we could probably just use this the way that we would use vermouth but here's an interesting thing a lot of people say true a lot of booze

nerds say this thing that that lillet has denied but they say that lillet changed its recipe in the 80s it used to be a lot more bitter because it had quinine in it the stuff that's in like tonic water oh yeah and then the cue on the uh soda gun exactly when they switched to their uh to lillet blanc it got a little sweeter and way whinier uh so some cocktail enthusiasts say like you know what don't even bother with lillet anymore use uh uh coqui americano yeah coqui americano a different a different bitter liqueur that tastes more like the old-fashioned lillet and now lillet has come out and said hey we never changed a recipe. We don't know what the fuck you guys are talking about.

You're fucking our business up, frankly. That's wild. I saw a Corky Americano at Cap'n Cork. It just looked like a bitter liqueur that was kind of next to a bunch of other liqueurs. We got to get our hands on that Corky Romano and try it side by side. Who is Cork quirky Romano and try it side by side. Who is quirky Romano? So when I first picked this thing up, I was like, oh, this is probably going to be another licorice-y thing. But I'm not expecting that.

I think you're going to expect a vermouth-y thing. When drop hits tongue. When drop hits tongue, I think you're going to say, that's of got a a sweet white wine vermouth taste to it but i don't know i haven't tried it ever in my life is it gonna go i mean we should do the we should probably hot foot it over to the vesper after this yeah so it doesn't go bad our shit goes bad all the time i got i got i got so much bad vermouth i think vesper is like maybe vodka and i think it's kind of a 007 kind of a vibe. Yeah. Because Vesper is a character maybe even. In the first book, yeah.

I went into Cap and Cork so confident. Oh, yeah? Because I was like, I took French, so I know that it's Blanc. And then I went and I was like, Lilit Blanc, please? And he looked at me funny. And after a while he said, oh, Lil A.

And I was like, yes, yes, Lillet Blanc. But Blanc, you remember. Blanc, though. I did get one word. Well, I said Lillet Blanc. So we're both fucking up. That's like me when I went to Paris and I thought I spoke French and I didn't. And then you said magnifique and won the day, right?

Exactly. Thank you. I remember remember i'm a fan of the pod you're a slob head you're i'm not just a co-host i'm also you know a happy listener i just do this for the paycheck i'm a pleased customer over here okay one ounce of fresh lime juice and then one dash of absinthe now my absinthe bottle doesn't have a dasher on top so i don't know how i'm gonna do this dash some people do the rinse where they pour a little absinthe into the the the glass or the shaker and then they kind of whisk it around and then dump it out i think i'm just gonna try to see if i could get one drip now tim you said lime juice or is it

lemon lemon my boy lemon do you say lime whatever okay i said lime but he is it lemon? Lemon, my boy. Lemon. Did you say lime? Whatever. He said lime, but he meant lemon. Did I say lime? You did, but we're all figuring it out here. It's good. This fucking sucks. Yeah, well.

Fuck everything and most importantly, fuck you, dude. We're going to move on from this as best we can. I can't believe I said lime. I know. God, I would give anything to have said lemon.. I can't believe I said lime. I know. God, I would give anything to have said lemon. Tim, go on to the garnish. One of my favorite parts. Hey, this drink isn't a lemon. It's going to be delicious.

The method is pour all ingredients into a shaker with ice. Shake well and strain into chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with an orange zest. Now, not a lemon zest lemon like in the that's in the drink they're going duddy stylies yeah they switched up the fruit now what do you what do you say to the listener who didn't read that part and just got the ingredients what didn't we read that part the garnish i would say you're fucked for life you're foobar man yeah sorry guys um can i tell you something i don't have an orange and i'm gonna use a little lemon zest oh tim i could have brought an orange fuck that dude all right i said

i'm sticking my guns about this point i made about fuck everything okay i have i purchased some uh handicap hot fries now they are orange and i will put that in there rub your little fingers on the just sprinkle them around the yeah here you go it's a halloween drink it's a spooky theme everyone's having fun this was a good segment one. Yep. It's a Halloween tradition. From now on, we drink corpse revivers on this very day. Yep. Well, shall we?

Yep. Yes. Folks, we'll be right back. And we're back with corpsepse Reviver number twos. Ooh. This is, I filled this thing to the brim, so it's tough moving around.

But this is probably the most perfect drink I've made for this show. That looks nice, Michael. This looks exactly, yours does too. I can't see Jeff's textbook. Here's what I did. I used my Hawthorne strainer so i don't even have ice chips on top yeah mine's a little foamified on top i just put the garnish

right in there it's just sitting in the bottom oh so we're gonna imagine that we have gnarly hangovers oh man what did we do last night i I can't believe we fucking fell. We drank corpse revivers all night. Well, there's a tiger in our penthouse. And we're going to encounter Mike Tyson at some point. Dude, didn't you have a tooth yesterday? Man, Bradley Cooper's so annoying in that movie. Anyway. Wow.

Okay, we'll leave that movie. Anyway. Wow. Okay. We'll leave that there for now. That's it. So that's a that's your own blowout. Jeff. We were so fucked up last night. That's him. The whole movie.

Real cool. Real cool. Yeah. Who does that remind me of? Let's see. I'm talking to him on this podcast right now. Stop. Timothy Jordan.

Kyle Packers. No, I was gonna say you. TJ. Oh, can you guys start calling me TJj by the way yes thank you tj j uh jeff you want to go by keep going by jd jd tj jd let's do it mh sips okay okay did you guys try the the lily blanc before you yeah no it tasted to me reminded me of like a communion wine it was like a very uh like a wine that's like you drink it and it's like on your on your breath a little bit um hot in in what in a spicy way you know it just sort of like hangs you know when you have like a yeah in like a spicy throat way you drink the wine at communion

and you turn the priest and you go heartburn no no it's not it's not extreme like that but it's just like you can feel it like lingering more so than a wine like that means you're a sinner if you drink communion wine and it burns. This has got an interesting thing. I was reading that Lillet, people often drink it with just like a little slice of citrus. Like they'll just do a little garnish of citrus and just drink it. This seems better to me. Oh, just the Lillet.

Yeah, they'll just drink it like a wine, but with a little citrus on the side. But this is interesting to me because I feel a little of that absinthe coming through. Yeah. It is a little complex. How did you dash? Drops, just a couple of drops. Yeah, I don't know. I probably did a little too much on the absinthe just because I was trying to do the whoa. Trying to.

Yeah, you pour a little into the glass, a little up for daddy. Wow. That's the whole bottle. Now I got to bring everything else up. Also, I got the type of absinthe that's making me trip balls, man. Oh, no. I was asking somebody where I got this absinthe for the last drink we did with absinthe was, what was that?

Last week's, right? We had absinthe for the zombie in episode two but we had just recently we had well anyway uh i was asking i was like what's the deal with it being like uh hallucinogenic and he was like yeah he's like that doesn't really happen anymore and that was probably way back in like the 1600s when it was like made with stuff that wasn't regulated at all yeah there's i see i think that there's a weird thing where like the 1600s when it was like made with stuff that wasn't regulated at all yeah there's i see i think that there's a weird thing where like the regulation as far as like importing it to america um change in like the early 2000s i think a lot changed and now we have it here but i i've read a thing that's like saying that that was all kind of bullshit i don't know maybe hundreds of

years ago it was different but there's not really a version of hallucinating from i'll say the the marketing people for certain absinthe brands have really clung on to that yeah like you see and they're so like uh chase the green fairy man yeah sort of steampunk top hat guy selling his stuff well i don't think i'm hallucinating but i did want to ask you guys before we started sipping on this were you both um white chew bakas uh tim i can answer jeff just relax i'll answer sure thank you i got my answer white chew bakas why do you ask him um because i'm tripping balls and that was the first time i ever heard of uh acid it was my friend in school told me that his friend saw white chew baka

i had a friend who did acid in high school and told me that uh he took a shower and he saw little like uh inch inch high robots flying around him like shooting each other with these like nerf laser guns damn i was like that sounds cool are you tim are you sure your friend just didn't didn't just see a bigfoot or like a or like a uh abominable snowman white chewbacca's so what do we think of this taste of this cocktail um i think i'm on board from the get-go here we like it to taste i do like a taste i think uh maybe lemon is coming forward the most but i like all the one ouncers and it's it's kind of mellow it's it's lemony it's yet another sort of cosmo if someone likes cosmos maybe you'd point him in this direction this is like uh this is almost like a

lemonade yeah i could maybe it's almost like with what i did with the paper plane where as fun as it is to have equal measurements maybe in future in the future i would dial back a little bit of lemon to see if i could i'm not really tasting gin whatsoever are you guys yeah no not really i mean a full ounce of squeezed lemon juice is a lot. Yeah. In anything. That is pretty aggressive. But it's nice.

It's nice having a lemony, kind of a mellow lemony cocktail in a fancy coupe glass. And you say, this is kind of nice. Yeah. Damn, I do like it. I think you're going to really impress some people with this. I think so, too. I think next time I have to make cocktails, I'll say, why don't you let me handle the cocktails? You bitch.

Bitch. Hey, step out of the way, bitch. Watch out, bitch. I'm making Corpse Survivor 2s. Oh, speaking of the 2 thing. So I went to a bar in williamsburg the other night called uh maison premier wow first house you heard yes it's uh was this the first house you encountered when you left your apartment yeah i just walked in i said you gotta get me drunk

okay let's see what it was a residence i'm residence? I'm sorry. I picked you guys. They're like, oh, perfect. You got to get me drunk. Get me. No, it was like a nice kind of cocktail bar, like horseshoe bar area that was really cool. And then it was more so a restaurant. And I think the food, I assume, was French. But I drank, I had their martini. And I did the thing where I was like, this person knows cocktails. I said, you do the martini the way you want it. But I want a gin martini and you do it the thing where i was like this person knows cocktails i said you do the

you do you the martini the way you want it but i want a gin martini and you do it up and it was good and then i did something called the chrysanthemum on just based on the uh bartender's suggestion and that had absinthe in it and it was pretty good but i he did say as i was trying to figure out what i wanted he's like uh that we do a tuxedo number two here. I said, oh, interesting. I've heard of that. I've just done that on my pod. And he didn't seem to mind. Did you tell him that we take a deep dive?

I did. I also told him I know Jack Schramm suggested that place to me. And he said, ah, Jack Schramm. I think he knew him. Oh. At least knew me. Wait, now, we did the tuxedo and today we're doing the corpse survivor number two was there something called the tuxedo number

two yeah remember there was like there's like up to five or six i think yo i do all with all different little can you remind me variations what what was in the tuxedo i forget no i know i can't remember gin mar Maraschino? Right. I remember being like okay on that one. Yeah, it was a little on the stiff side. I had a gin Bloody Mary the other day that I did not enjoy. Yeah, that's a weird combo. Gin Bloody Mary, interesting. Yeah, you could pick vodka, gin, or tequila.

I said, I'll try the gin. And did you make it known to them that you didn't enjoy it? Upon first sip, I will never try this again. Bring me your biggest spittoon, bitch. Tequila sounds good with spicy tomato. Yeah? Yeah. Isn't that a Bloody Maria?

Or like, you remember those Banderos shots at El Chavo? Yeah, baby. It was like, what was it? It was like hot sauce. It was like spicy tomato, tequila, and lime juice. But yeah, you're right. That spicy tomato was like pretty much like a little glass of Tapatio. It was like hot sauce.

Ooh. Zing pow. And that would come in like a little um it would look like a flight of beers or something because it was like a traffic light bing bong boom and then you order one of those and then everybody says oh what is that and then it sets off a chain reaction everybody gets them yeah it's it's a fun it's a i like anything like that you know like i happen to think that one also tastes good but wouldn't you just like literally any drink served in a weird way? It's great.

Yes, anything with a little pageantry goes such a long way. That's why people like sushi. It's just a little different. Oh, yeah. That definitely worked on me, like putting all the stuff. Putting all the stuff on the stuff. Wasabi and the ginger, the green hat sauce and the root. Now, you guys, wait, did you,

you went to the German bar recently in red line. Yeah. Red line. Did you do the boot? Did you want to drink in the boot? Das boot? We forgot to, we forgot to drink the boot, but I did. I've been on a real schnapps kick there.

I've had walnut schnapps. I've had apple schnapps. I've had pear schnapps. I've had honey. Oh, we had the walnut schnapps after the've had apple schnapps. I've had pear schnapps. I've had honey. Oh, we had the walnut schnapps after the Dodgers game. Yes. And walnut is probably my favorite. We got a whole ski of those.

Honey was very good. Apple is kind of the one they push the most, but I'm a bit of a schnapps. And speaking of German libations, as it were, i was out at the with our friend uh eva anderson and some and mike cassidy and alan mcleod we went out to the santa anita racetrack for their octoberfest celebration oh and they gave us you you buy a ticket and you get a three ounce stein like this teeny little finger stein you're holding the the the handle with two fingers basically and i went and you get eight different types of beer so i was tasting all these german beers in a teeny little stein and that was fun for

me that sounds great um did you race or did you bet on the races yep i've got a system which is i i place large bets on – large money on safe bets. So I'll pick like the best raced – the best rated horse just to show. So it's almost guaranteed that he's going to win, place, or show. But you just don't win much. You don't win much. That's why I put like $100 down because Eva was doing like interesting bets that were $5 or like long shots for $5. I'm saying no.

$100 safe bet. Damn. And then I won first race. So then I get back $110. So I made $10. Then I let it ride on the next. I got, I won and I had $143.

So I say, see, slow and steady wins the race. And then the next one, which is what you don't want in a race. Yeah. You want fast and fleet of foot. Herky jerky.

Wait, what happened with race number three, Tim? I'm on the edge of my seat yeah yeah fucker you lost the house he the one the overwhelming favorite didn't even come in the top five he shit the bed i lost 143 and i said i'm out i'm not gonna i don't dig back into my wall. I did kind of what John Favreau does in Swingers where it's like, I have $100 to bet with today. I'm not going to the ATM after this, you know?

You're smart. So I was sad, but then I got a lot of ribs and jalapeno poppers and they were out of bratwurst. So I had a normal hot dog. I thought you were about to say they were out of this world.

So I choked down a normal hot dog. I thought you were about to say they were out of this world. So I choked down a normal hot dog. Like a fucking loser. The ribs were cold and the poppers were cold. This was a fun... Hey, kid. Brats are for winners, okay? Get out of here.

The horse that let me down was named V-Bucks. If anyone ever bumps into V-Bucks... Oh, shit. That's a Fortnite reference. Kick him in his ass. Turn him into glue. Yeah, send me a little bit of the Elmers.

That horse owes me some glue. Are we feeling any better about these? I mean, I haven't felt bad about it. They're not getting melty because there's no juice. They're not getting melty. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, it still tastes like a little gin lemonade, and it's still good. It's a little burning my esophagus on the way down.

It's so acidic. So it's a little Collins-y, but not long. Oh, yeah, gin and lemon. It is Collins-y, isn't it? It's very Collins-y. In fact, it's short. It's short. It's wide. It's short and widey, isn't it? In fact, it's short. It's short. It's wide.

It's short and wide. A little chode. Harry Cratic was quite democratic. Yes. When choosing the spirits for drink. How many of these have you had, Mike? Oh, he had 20 corpse varieties. I'm going to go in the yellow bird tree and revive some corpses back on topic to the the time of the year it's it's it's halloween it's all hollows eve and it's it's spooky stuff what

do you what do you guys been in are you are you watching the films are you going to the haunted houses what are you up to you know what's i i am uh i'm realizing it's now like the end of halloween i haven't like watched much at all we watched hoobie obviously who'd be halloween which was our last uh wow out mm-hmm pubi it's pronounced hubie michael what did i say hubie like a fucking philistine yeah you know i've i've put me on the spot here sorry you're right i've it's you put me on the spot here sorry you're right we really shouldn't have put you on the spot with that name of that movie yeah you know you're not watching the films mike no i uh i'm you know i told you i'm watching uh squid

uh squid game squid game hey well tim i don't know if you know this mike and i've watched all the all the freddys and all the Jasons? I thought you watched all the Jasons. Most of the Jasons. I think all the Jasons. Most of the Jasons. Which was better because to me, in my life, I think of myself as being a...

I'm not a fan of any of that stuff, but I would say Jason movies are fun. I like Camp Crystal Lake and Lunatic on the loose freddy never really did much for me comes into your dreams and he's got a long but he's jokier i'm surprised that you didn't resonate with uh oh yeah doesn't he say bitch a lot as it goes on that's almost all he says okay well, well, I like that because I like calling people bitches. Yeah, what is he? He's like, he slams a girl's head into a TV and he's like, Welcome to primetime, bitch.

Yeah, primetime, bitch. Jesus. Yeah, the Jason movies are just like, they go so crazy. Like, they're good, they're bad. They're just... I feel like Freddy's a little more consistent, maybe. Yeah. And I'm surprised in the age of reboots that we're in and sequels that they're not making Freddy and Jason movies. Come on.

Fred? I know. Well, they're making the Mike Myers, the Halloween Kills just came out. Did you see that? I like those two. Actually, I haven't seen the new rebooty one. The one that came out a little bit ago with a... Oh, yeah.

The one that Danny McBride wrote? Yeah. You didn't see that? I know, I know. It seems like I would see it. I'll tell you something about the Halloween franchise. It blows my mind how the third one doesn't have Mike Myers in it at all. Yeah, they were like,

maybe we're this kind of thing. It's like, no. It's like the producers were like, okay, so we have this Halloween franchise. It's just going to be like Halloween movies that take place on Halloween. Movies about trick-or-treating. Yeah, it was so weird.

And it's also just like a weirdly cast movie. It's very creepy at times. I've made a scary movie blunder recently, which I could write this wrong, but I've left it open-ended, where the only thing I knew about Malignant is people were like, hey, are you watching Malignant? You know, I almost didn't watch the whole thing, but you got to watch that last half hour. It's a little nuts at the end. Well, I almost didn't watch the whole thing, but you got to watch that last half hour. It's a little nuts at the end. Me?

I've watched Malignant all the way up until except for the last half hour. I bailed on it and I haven't finished it yet. You're going to be disappointed because you want to watch that all in one sweep, I think. So I should start from scratch when I revisit it? I think so. Yeah. Or just go back like a half hour. I didn't like that first hour hour i was bored out of my gourd i turned it off after like 20 minutes i thought like the the cold open especially was like downright bad i thought it was like

really bad well they did one of those snl cold opens hey uh welcome to uh middle ignit you're fired oh no but then people were like, stick it out, you're going to see some cool stuff. And then I did, and I was like, it was fine. Right. For the amount of chatter I was hearing about it, I did not... I'm tired about how we chatter.

Yeah, just show the movie. Everybody chatters for two weekends, and then it's like, who cares about that fucking thing? I want something that lasts. A film that will stand the test of time. Mike, if you're still talking about Squid Game two weeks from now, I'll watch it. Okay, I'll put it in my calendar. Make sure I tell you about it.

That thing, though. Then it's going to be gone. Then it probably wouldn't be worth watching because it's going to be gone. You know what I mean? I hate the brief moment. probably wouldn't be worth watching because it's gonna be gone you know i mean i hate the brief moment you there's a lot of things that i watch like if i don't get to it that i mean like hey right now if i'm watching succession i gotta watch it sunday night so that i can have a harsh opinion on monday morning otherwise what are you even doing get out of there right yeah right

sopranos i had sort of had the opposite thing where i started watching and i was like hey this show that everybody told me was great for 10 years right it's great yeah well and that's cool that you got to watch it when it was like relevant again so you weren't like in a vacuum you know i see i'm watching it with the zoomers you know i'm in there with the zoomers sort of just finding it for the first time is it is it just relevant because of the movie no it's no i think i think it got relevant because of binge watching during the pandemic hbo max had it and everybody watched it and then i think that that's what bookended perfectly is is then many saints was coming out it's timing though to to like notice there was nostalgia for seinfeld and friends for a couple years and then we kind of got burnt out on that and then it's like it's 15 or 20 years prior that's what we're

always nostalgic for so sopranos that they were like next up um i uh i took a little break on sopranos because i was cruising through those things and i was just like i don't want to i don't want to be done with it. Make it last. Yeah, you want to savor the flavor with that one. You fucking edger. You little fucking suck, you. Yeah. Sometimes I'll watch an episode and I'll get really close to the end and I'll stop with one frame left.

Hey, if we open up that tier where we talk about our kinks, maybe that's my kink. Oh, that's open, baby. That's up. We got a lot. We got some pay pigs over there. No. Wait, pay pigs isn't kink.

Kinks is a $1,000 tier where we do one episode a year. Okay. We reiterate our kinks. Oh, right, right, right. Sorry, the tiers are getting very confusing. Oh, wait, wait, wait wait wait no yes we did have an idea where once a year we admit to our kinks yeah oh no it was about piss being whether or not we're piss freaks yeah but yeah wasn't that in the wasn't that in the pay pig tier

pay pig no no that was separate pay pig is they pay and they get off and we just take the money yeah yeah that fin dom shit thank you wait what's what's that called jeff it's called fin dom and they get off and we just take the money. Yeah, yeah. That FINDOM shit. Thank you. Wait, what's that called, Jeff? It's called FINDOM, financial domination. Yeah, yeah. If that's the case, then dominate me all day long. Yeah, yeah, for real. Well, getting back to the drink here, the Corpse Reviver,

I bet you guys didn't know a very famous celebrity is a fan of these drinks. I didn't know that. I thought this was kind of a drink for no names. Beyonce Knowles. Whoa! Big Corpse Reviver 2 fan. Yonce. The Yonce.

The Yonce. And she's been talking about drinking these since like way back in the destiny's child days no shit oh really yeah she i i there's did you see that tape or hear that tape that came out recently it was like a i think they're putting it together destiny's child like um box setty type thing and a tape came out for it of physical media physical media they're doing like a big, it's like a coffee table book and you pull up CDs. I might buy that for all my friends

and family for Christmas, actually. Oh, yeah. Box sets to buy for people for gifts are a great idea. So, yeah, this thing, I don't think they're actually including it in the box set, but it's something that kind of leaked

and I got my hands on it before the web took it down. And and yeah this is kind of around the time they were getting ready for that song um survivor you know that song i'm a survivor actually you know what let's do this a different way don't do that yeah sure a little too tippy yeah a little too tippy sure sure sure okay uh so this was coming out around the time Destiny's Child was like gearing up for a

doing a new album and they wanted to do like a music video on a beach maybe I don't know would you stop it you're too much he's a lot of fun folks

but he can really sink the story so yes so they were getting ready to do this album so they're just kind of like you know when you're we're working on the albums you just kind of like have the tunes in your head and you're singing around the house and stuff us yeah totally totally so this was just something she had she was recording herself around the house and uh yeah she was making drinks uh she's just having

like an afternoon cocktail or maybe i'm i'm, I think it was actually A brunch cocktail she was making Around the house Great, here we go Triple sec. Oh, there's some Cointreau. Gonna add some Blanc. They gotta still it. Don't have absinthe. Probably doesn't need it. Made corpse revival. Corpse gonna wake up. We'll drink together and have a party.

Party with zombies. A dead man's party. Hope I don't get sued by Oingo Boingo. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, no. Oh, no. I forgot the ounce of lemon juice. Oh, no. Fuck. No wonder this fucking drink tastes like rotten shit.

Shut up, Jay-Z. Stop laughing at me. Oh, I can't stay mad at you. Happy Halloween, you old knucklehead. Now come here and kiss me. Wow. Yeah. She was just floating around the house trying to make drinks and stuff.

They have such good voices, the two of them. I know. And I feel a lot better having said Lilit at Cap and Cork today, knowing that Beyonce said Lilit also. If Queen B says it, I'll say it. I just like, you know, like, they have songs that are, like, very sexual, like Drunk in Love and stuff like that and it's really cool to then also hear like that sexual chemistry between them here at the end

of this track yeah well you know that drunken love it's like well how'd they get drunk yeah probably uh oh my god this is that this song is kind of like the prequel to drunken love yeah i think and wait, hold on. That's Sean Carter you're telling me? That was, yes. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, we mostly know him as Jay-Z, but Sean Carter.

The party star. What do you say we take a little break and then we'll come back with some final thoughts? Love it. I love that. Folks. Yeah, I love that for you. We'll be right back and we're back with our final thoughts on the corpse survivor number two i like it i'll just jump right into mine and say i think it's real good yeah i give it like a 90

percent wow i think it's that good it's on rotten tomatoes maybe yeah damn i was gonna give it a splat-o-meter oh no it seemed like you were leaning the other way jeff because you were like are we still bad on this drink like it seemed like you were thinking yeah you know i was sort of a red herring i like it too and and you know it's weird before we had it i was like this is strange as a hangover cure because it's like this stiff gin martini type of thing i wouldn't really want that in the morning then we're drinking it i'm saying hey this is more lemon for it than i thought and then i'm like hey yeah i guess i would have a little lemonade sipper with my brunch why not yeah yeah this is this is good

order again oh yeah i would do a couple a night, but that might get into the danger zone. I'm going to make a plan to have a couple a night every night until I feel like I've gotten, you know, alcoholism. Oh yeah. That's a good goal.

That's an achievable goal. So order again is all around. Or is it going to, and I'm, I'm excited to go to uh a place like maison premier and uh say like hey you know what you're doing back there make this yeah because they have some fancy absinthe and stuff like that yeah yeah man this one's hitting me i forgot to mention that there was a funny little quote in the uh in the book that old book

where this cocktail came from, it said like, you know, it's a corpse reviver, but it said, if you have four of these in swift succession, that the, the,

the, the corpse will be revived no more or something like that. Like it's saying like, don't, don't you're drinking this as a hangover cure, but don't drink too many because you'll pass. Oh, that's funny.

But see, that's, that's see, that's, but you know, Tim many because you'll pass oh that's funny but see that's that's see that's but you know tim like you said tim you're supposed to it's supposed to be the hair of the dog that bit you right right right so if you go out and you have four corpse survivors that just means when you have one or two the next day you you're going to be sitting pretty, my man. Yeah, and the more that you have a night, the more you're allowed to have the next day. So let's say I have,

you know, let's say on Sunday morning I want to have five corpse survivors. I mean, Saturday night I should have 20 or 30 corpse survivors. It's just simple math. This is perfect. I'm like pretty excited about this weekend now.

I challenge each of you you challenge us i think we tried it at the uh didn't we do that somewhere did i do that we did it at the october fest at the stink house right what's funny is you fill up a stein with water you hold it out straight right and then they see who could hold it the longest but what starts to happen is like people don't just let their arms drop and then step out of the competition what they start to do is slowly like lean back or like you know like the arms start

dipping and everyone thinks that they still have it and then they look really stupid they don't realize how stupid they look okay folks well we'll see you next week, huh? Happy Halloween.
