Oh! Let's hear it for the boy. Thank you. Wow. Peppermint rum chata, in case that was unclear. Peppermint rum chata. So if you've been following the saga, I bought this a year ago. And I didn't want to drink it post-Christmas last year.

In a fun pack. It came in a holiday liquor gift set with a normal bottle of Rum Chata. And I've had this little tiny nip in my fridge for a full year. I checked to make sure it did not expire. You don't have to refrigerate rum chata, which is weird, even after opening. What is rum chata? It's milky looking. It's rice. Horchata.

Horchata is. Rum. It's rum and rice milk. I don't think I knew that. But this, I've never had it. It's peppermint flavor. We've been teasing it all year. The listeners are going completely fucking apeshit right now. I thought you were going to say the listeners are going come on and get this done with. i just want to get this episode done i need to see what's happening uh what do you say we well first off it's kind of uh what is it looks like oat milk

it's kind of yeah it looks like iced coffee or something it's like a latte yeah it reminds me of a uh a white russian i poured it out onto rocks for us so it's nice and cold. What do you say we zip away? Yeah, let's do it. Yeah, that's a good idea. Oh, that's fantastic. Ooh. Noggish. Oh, it's pepperminty. Right, right, right, right.

Oh, yeah. So it's just like a, it's like a creamy horchata up front and then in the, then it kind of like a little bit of a toothpastey thing comes in on the back. But I like it.

That's not bad. I might start doing this instead of brushing my teeth. Oh, the once a month you fucking brush your teeth? Ah, shit, my dentist listens to this. Sorry, Dr. Itchis. That was my

allergist. Dr. Abrams? I don't go to him anymore. Lovely man. His wife is fantastic. I just don't go to them because I don't live in the same town. Very nog-like. And also strong. Better Nog. A rum bite. This is better than Nog.

Better than Nog. Well, that's great. I feel like without the rocks, it would maybe be a little intensely sweet, but it got a little melty while I was waiting for us to start the fucking pod. And it's nice. I should have done this for my family Christmas party. Yeah. This would have been.

Yeah. Maybe a little nutmeg. It was the talk of the family. Yeah. Hey, what do you guys say to another surprise? We say yes. Okay, great. Oh, my God.

Did you see that somebody on Instagram sent us a thing? They're reading Keith Moon's biography and it said that he had a few Technicolor yawns. Yeah, I've never read that book, so that's not where I got it, but it's good to know that it is a thing.

I'll just keep this on the even more than the peppermint rum chata, if you can believe it. Wow. I'll just keep this on the table then. The peppermint rum chata was very good. Peppermint. Peppermint. What is peppermint? Because mint is mint. Spearmint.

Spearmint is a leaf. I don't know about peppermint. Peppermint comes from... I think it comes from naturally occurring candy canes. Is that Well most of them are straight And then they bring them to the factory to bend them You know last week on The Blow It I sang kind of a funny song about

No I sang it on the main pod That's right Tim you're supposed to be the memory guy I know Turns out I'm the memory guy Well What do you say we get into some dip let's get into some are we ready for a little See you. You've been thinking And I've been drinking We both know

That it's just Booze News It's dead and it's sudden And it's true sometimes But it might just save your life That's the power of Booze News Booze News you son of a bitch.

Booze. Wow, okay. There's sort of a stream of consciousness thing going on with that one. Huey Lewis and the Booze News by Robert Persinger, the Drop King. Oh, yes. Welcome back, Persinger. DK himself. And if you've got a Booze News theme,

email it to thesloppyboyspodcast at gmail.com. That was funny to start off with the Ghostbusters thing, and then I was going to make that joke. I was like, oh, I'm more of a Huey Lewis guy, and then he did it. Because there was a lawsuit, right? Huey Lewis sued Roy Parker Jr.? Ray, yes.

Oh, Ray. Because of... Boom, bam, ba-dum, bam, bam, ba-dum, bam, ba-dum, bam. And that's close to New Drug Oh that's what it is Yeah I mean they both sound like So you can't do a song that goes No

But you can do one that goes Yeah you're allowed to do that We should do a song that goes You're not gonna get on the charts with that Was that lyric Feeling three feet thick I think so You're allowed to do that. We should do a song that goes, bam-a-dum. You're not going to get on the charts with that. Was that lyric feeling three feet thick? I think so. That's a funny lyric. We should write funny lyrics.

My brain was feeling three feet thick. Speaking of our funny lyrics, today's top booze news. This goes beyond booze news. This is just the biggest news of the year from Vulture, the top 10 comedy podcasts of 2021. Did you guys happen to see what is number three? Coming in at number three. The Sloppy Boys, folks, the very show that you're listening to,

that you've been listening to for a year, hoping that it would just grace the pages of vulture you've picked a winner folks it finally happened it finally happened for you this is it's a victory for the listener they didn't waste 63 hours listening to this vindicating for us and them and this goes out to to all the early adopters yeah me jeff tim yeah we adopted it first we definitely were ahead of to all the early adopters. Yeah. Me, Jeff, Tim. Yeah, we adopted it first. We definitely were ahead of all the listeners. We were like, this could be something kind of special. We knew about this before everybody. Damn.

Well, they wrote a great blurb about our show. Thanks, Vulture. And we hope to be number one next year. I assume we will. Sure, yeah. And just other than that, the booze news I wanted to share is contest winner Neil Campbell

was telling me that he and Fran have been getting some, you know, the Christmas season you tend to get Christmas gifts. Would you agree? Yeah. Yes. My cousin, who was born on Christmas,

she gets birthday gifts too. Oh. Also, that's got to be tough. Because I bet most people want to roll them together, and you got to hold the line and go, ah, ah, ah. It's two different holidays. I think she probably gets a little bit of the shaft on a birthday. You know who that happened to?

Jesus of Nazareth. Yeah. His birthday was Christmas. Yeah. That's kind of funny. Feel free to laugh. But that wasmas was a week ago right but looking back don't you think that new year's eve is a good time to look back on the christmas yeah just like one week prior yeah yeah well um fran gillespie was a guest on our show uh and we did the pickleback and she talked about how she's a huge

fan of pickles and everyone that knows Fran knows that she loves pickles. So for Christmas, she had a lot of people sending her pickles that they like and saying, hey, here's a pickle pack and stuff. But Neil was telling me one of the pickle packs that they got delivered to them was from this company Mouth, the boozy pickle box.

We're talking about pickles that are marinated in booze. Wow. There's one called Pickles Under the Gin Fluence. So the pickle juice itself has gin in it. And then there's drunken tomatoes and pickled vegetables, bloody Mary in a jar and Hoppy Pickles! What's that like?

Hoppy Pickles? Are you on the website there? No, I'm on the website. You gotta turn your head sideways to read. Well, it was a picture of the basket and they were arranged. It's a beautiful gift basket with these pickles. Picture of the basket? So you're not on NBA.com?

Oh shit, hold on. I'm on www.nba. So you're not on NBA.com? Oh, shit. Hold on. I'm on www.nba.com. They're selling boozy pickles? They really should not be doing that. So that's a cool thing that people can send to the Sloppy Boys, in fact, like sponsors, like, for example, Mouth, that company. You can send those to us and we'll eat them. Yeah.

Hmm. And finally, in passing, just want to mention for anyone who's catching up on that old succession finale uh that came out a few weeks ago you may have noticed that roman ordered a cuba libre that's right that's right i went i know i saw that and i said huh never i heard that and you didn't put it together yeah it's a nice feeling in the past you would have watched that and said, oh, he said words I don't know, but he says Cuba Libre and you say, oh, okay, well that is a Bacardi and Coke with a lime

in a highball glass with ice. I turned to my watching group, my succession watching group, I said, it's a rubber Coke. And what did they say? They said, shut the hell up, we're not invited. Well, famously in Cocktail somebody wears a

Cuba Libre and Tom Cruise says you bitch why didn't you just say it was a rum and coke hey I got some pickle news I was you know I'm staying here

at Jeff Dutton's house and thank you such a host thank you so much oh sure yeah I'm making we ran out of toilet paper yeah but

you know we took care of it we got it I'm making what did you out of toilet paper. Yeah, but we took care of it. We got it. I'm making... What did you arrange? You know what you can use as the actual cardboard inside. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I was making a turkey sandwich from groceries I bought myself. And I was looking in Jeff's fridge.

I said, hey, there's a pickle. He's got pickle stackers. Vlasic stackers. Here we go. Yeah, yeah. And I undo the top Jeff's fridge. I said, hey, there's a pickle. He's got pickle stackers. Vlasic stackers. Here we go. Yeah, yeah. And I undo the top. Nothing in it. This guy's hoarding pickle juice.

He's doing the pickle bag shots. He's ready. Of course. Yeah. Well, a guy who's making a sandwich who's gotten, at home, gotten used to the idea of pickle stackers. Did you also see the... I've become acclimated to having stackers.

Did you also see the jar of Vlasic ovals and think, well, now here I go. I didn't see that. Now I've found my pickles. Same deal. After I dumped out the Vlasic pickle juice, I said, I might go back in there. God, all this talk of ovals is making my mouth water. My juice. Ovals. Ovals.

Be sure to drink your Ovaltine. Last week, that was last week's hot movie Mike is your house guest here Jay what's the breakfast situation like are you guys having bowls of cereal I'll fucking tell you what it is today he knocked it out of the park

let me guess Mickey D's home cooked meal veal parmesan the leftover veal schnitzel and he scrambled up some eggs with tomatoes and a little hot sauce it would be so funny if the veal schnitzel wasn't

your leftovers if you had pounded it out and breaded it and fried it just like jeff waking up early and pounding i've made the weirdest breakfast in the world veal schnitzel my boy that was really good they did it like it was like I kept remarking on how it was like veal Milanese because it was it had the capers it had prosciutto and it had arugula on top

it was good but we've already talked about that on the Patreon when we blow out. I keep saying Patreon. It's covered. Yeah, the same thing. And Musso and Frank. So you got to get over there and see what we can say about that place.

And with that, wrap it up. Okay. The last drink of the year looking forward to you you guys are probably thinking new year's new year's eve is followed by new year's day kind of a brunchy hangovers are prevalent but then you know you're off of work you might want to go out for a brunchy affair have a few friends brunchy lunch Well, have you ever considered a certain... Bellini! No!

Never, my man. Never heard, never had. Never heard. Well, we heard about it, Mike, we heard about it, because it was the... Mike crossed his eyes. When we talked about the mimosa, you, Tim, were saying that you went to like a baby shower or something?

No, I was walking past the Georgian Hotel in Santa Monica. And you saw all the different juices. Yes. And, you know, just people mixing all sorts of juices with champagne. Yeah. And little spigots, right? Crafts. Crafts.

Crafts. Yeah, it's a flight. One time I was at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel in Waikiki, and I had a guava mimosa. With us? Different time. Different time. But that was pretty good. So I guess there's all these different-

Guava mimosa. I actually had a list here. In your mimosa we've done on the show, and that's OJ and champagne. Yeah. Rossini is when you do A strawberry puree Puccini Is when it's Mandarin orange juice

Ooh Mandarin I would just call that A mimosa Puccini's one of my Favorite Tintoretto is Pomegranate juice

What Michael? Pomegranate Puccini's one of my Favorite opera singers And Jeff you were Quoting Tig Hanford That's correct Pomegranate

Who's more As more of an Art uh fulfillment in their lives i thought you're gonna say who's the better artist in the hanford family microtig puccini isn't my oh yeah well she's pretty good um i guess i would uh affiliate this drink with it's it's it's a brunch classic but i i would say i have heard of it and i've seen it and i've never had it but like i think of it as like the fan more of an upscale brunch and it's kind of a fancy ladies at brunch yeah maybe who knows maybe an italian guy based on the name i had no idea it was on the iba it's on the iba we're back nice we gotta get through that list

yeah we kind of bucked it for our uh a lot of our christmas drinks i think that's okay i wonder if the the audience is like actually like, this isn't on that list. Yeah, not even the IPA cares. I don't even think there's much of an audience at this point. They saw that we got on the Vulture list, and they're like, that's enough of that. It might work. Let Comcast have them. Can we talk about the ingredients first, and then we'll talk about the fiasco of getting our hands on some of this stuff.

On getting the shit. Well, I'll give you a little backstory before that, because remember, we've talked about this place several times on the pod in Paris, Harry's New York Bar. And not only this is a important bar. I've been there, and I had a Bloody Mary because they were kind of one of the pioneers of the Bloody Mary, but also the French 75 and the monkey gland. And it's come up on the pod because Harry of Harry's Bar also puts out, he used to put out books

that would like document cocktails. And so like there's this whole scene. Sort of a proto sloppy boy. He's kind of the original podcaster in 2D form. but like uh the side car uh kind of came out of that scene and there's uh the oh the side car was the one that was like actually invented at the at the ritz or the bucks club or something like that but then he put it in

his book and then claimed that he made it but then there was like a fucking what was the other drink that oh the boulevardier got popularized because in that book but here's what you may not know is that that's harry's paris but there's also a harry's bar in venice italy and that my friends in the 1930s Is where Giuseppe Cipriani Invented the Bellini Hey This is like This is also

A very famous bar It's mentioned In the novel Brideshead Revisited And I've seen Michael Sorry I was totally spaced now

What was the name of the book? The novel Brideshead Revisited By Evelyn Wall Yeah well that's a wall Right yeah yeah yeah I'm not too familiar with it's the what i've heard i've read a lot of literature about it literature about the literature yeah that's how into literature he is yeah this guy i like to pop when i you know travel the country which i this is such a great country

i uh pop into different universities and see if they're doing any uh literature class i just sit in that's weird hey wait when we were first when we were brand new in la didn't you go to u universities and see if they're doing any literature class. I just sit in. That's weird. Hey, wait. When we were first, when we were brand new in LA, didn't you go to UCLA and sit in on a lecture one time? Yeah, I went to UCLA

just to kind of walk around the campus because it's a famous campus and a class was starting and I walked in and I sat down. Didn't you get a wedgie on the quad?

Afterwards, the professor came up and was like, you little son of a bitch you answered every question wrong i sat in for a little bit and i was like this is dumb see you later mike you're a weird guy uh yeah well you've held that position about how strange that is for many years and i've always in... I'm waiting for proof of otherwise. I've always countered... If you can document it, it's normal.

It's not that weird. I think it's kind of funny. I agree. It's kind of funny. No, I was going to say about this. Harry's New York Bar in Venice. Do you guys know the company Rowing Blazers? It's like men's fashion.

Very heavily marketed toward me on Instagram. On Instagram is where I'm saying, yeah. Rowing Blazers. They make rugby shirts that are like $200. Yes, I have seen that. Very much. You know our friend Lil Mookie B has that Aspen sweatshirt? Yes.

That's not Rowing Blazers brand, but like that cluster of companies, that kind of a type of a look. Okay. There's a very popular Rowing Blazers shirt that says Harry's Venice. And I see it every time I open up my little Instagram app. It's a cool shirt. Tim, you got to open up your little wallet. Yeah, I know. Your wallet app up my little Instagram it's a cool shirt open up your little wallet yeah I know 200 bucks for a rugby shirt I don't know use a apple wallet sounds like Abercrombie I use my apple wallet for my plane tickets my dodger tickets and my vax card well I mean I mean do you apple pay that's what I meant apple no no me neither I

mean I am signed up for it and I've only used it like once. It never comes up. Huh. Well. Okay. Well, so this bartender that, not Harry, who was at the Harry's in Paris, but Harry, this bar was managed by Giuseppe Cipriani and he invented, he put some peach juice into some Prosecco and called it a Bellini. And I thought, here's, that's the history of it. into some Prosecco and called it a Bellini. And I thought, that's the history of it,

but I had one little thing that I thought was interesting was that when Mike taught us about the mimosa, you mentioned that it kind of spun off from the Bucks fizz at the Bucks Club in London. It did. Yes. And then I also remember there was some kind of drama when we talked about the sidecar that it was like i think the sidecar was invented either at the ritz paris or no it was at the i think at the bucks club in london but then harry of harry's

bar look took credit for for it later on so it's funny that if the Bucks Club invented the mimosa and then Harry's Bar invented the Bellini, there's a pattern forming here of Harry's Bar ripping off the Bucks Club in London. So I don't want to start any beefs out there. Not this late in the game. I don't want any Venetians and Londoners going at each other's throats while they listen to this pod. Bad boy. But I'm noticing a trend that in London, Buck Club, you're kind of getting your style bit. Yeah.

London's calling, and you know what? They're taking your drinks. London calling. Clash. Joe Strummer is like a god to me. Joe Strummer on this episode of the show. Yeah, he popped up at one point. Yeah.

Oh, yeah. What was that song? I don't know. We had kind of a list. He was like, don't steal my song. Please don't steal my song. And then MIA stole his song. That's so sad. Yeah. All, yeah. What was that song? I don't know. We had kind of a list that we didn't expect. He was like, don't steal my song. Please don't steal my song. And then MIA stole his song. That's so sad.

Yeah, right. That's hilarious. Okay, well, according to the IBA, International Bartenders Association, when you make this drink, you're going to want 100 milliliters of Prosecco.

Ooh. Now, even dumb guys like us know that Prosecco is champagne that's from Italy. Yeah. 50 milliliters of white peach puree. Tell us, guys, how did you track this down? Not easy.

Not easy. You don't go into any grocery store and say, where's your white peach puree aisle? They have none of it. You were expecting a whole aisle? Yeah. It doesn't help that Albertsons puts their juice in like four different spots. Yeah, that's true. There's cold, there's warm, there's impulse buys by the door.

Yeah. There's like, yeah, just like breakfast juices and then just like fun juices. And like fun juices over there. But they did carry, but were out of Kern's. Sure. carry but were out of kerns sure which uh kerns had like this sort of grainy um yeah

passion fruit i guess like last time we needed it yes and i can uh kerns is one of those ones where like no matter what flavor you get i think it's always like 90 white grape juice or something like yeah like topping it off with flavors you know because we even thought about like uh we we went

to albertsons and then Lassen's and came up with nothing. We found all sorts of like. Lassen's is like, for those who don't know, is like kind of a. Health foodie. Yeah. But we figured they might have something like that. Yeah, I would assume.

Home of the $10 carton of eggs. We found tons of peach iced tea, peach pineapple, all these sort of peach cocktail things. Couldn't find any. And then I went to Vaughnons and I found just Simply Peach. You know, like Simply Orange? And then I look at the back and it says 17% juice. Ooh, 17%. Can we fish out just that 17% and use it?

But then I looked at it and I saw that, you know, a lot of it's water. You got the peach juice. And then there is some peach puree in there. What's puree? Ground up the peach juice. And then there is some peach puree in there. What's puree? Ground up peach? Yep. Nice.

And we saw carrot juice. Not a very juicy vegetable. Yeah. That's what we were commenting on. All sorts of vegetables. And then here are the peaches, one of the juiciest fruits. Couldn't find the juice. We even said at one point, Jeff suggested,

maybe we should just get some peaches and juice them. I said, that's out of our jurisdiction. I feel like that would come out kind of thick and kind of weird. Yeah, probably. Kind of like us, kind of thick and kind of weird. Here's the method we're going to use. Pour peach puree into mixing glass with ice. Oh, I wasn't expecting that.

Me either. Add the Prosecco wine. Stir gently and pour into a chilled flute glass. With ice? No. Strain. Strain. Garnish.

Not applicable. Love that. So, yeah, I bet most people that make this just do it mimosa style where they just splash some peach into their Prosecco do you have a mixing glass jeff should we stir this up yes yes so this is basically i think we're just trying to get the puree cold what was the breakdown uh it's uh amount wise volume wise uh 100 mils of prosecco 50 mils of peachcco, 50 mils of peach puree. Oh, great. Two to one. Good, good. Very good. Shall we?

Yeah, let's do it. We shall. Folks, see you after the ads. That stinks. Bummer. And we're back talking Bellini's, the perfect drink to follow up an eggnog. Ooh. But it's a good, fancy brunch, New Year's Day.

My prediction, I will not love this. I'll tell you right now beautiful looking in the champagne glass a nice hue to it we made an executive decision here where we didn't stir our peach juice in the ice because we said you know what we don't have peach puree we have peach juice it's already cold it's already a little watered

down I think we'll just go straight in the glass cool lights in here hey thanks It's already a little watered down. I think we'll just go straight in the glass. It's cool lights in here. It's a cool soft light. Hey, thanks. Bottoms up. Bottoms away.

Yeah. Timmy likey. The mild, it's not the peachiest peach juice I've ever had but it just kind of takes a little bit of the sweetness off the champagne in a nice way now Mike you don't like champagne

Timmy like you Timmy can have E-mine no thank you oh my god he dumped it out right on his own feet I don't care about my feet being wet

you don't like champagne I don't love it I feet being wet. You don't like champagne. I don't love it. How do you celebrate? How do you ring in the new year? I turn to the people I'm with and say, I respect you all and I wish you the best. That's more of a personal touch. I drink champagne. Oh, he's drinking champagne. He likes us.

He's ringing in the new year. I'll drink champagne. I mean, put yourself in headspace. The breeze is blowing. You're out with your gal pals on a brunch veranda. Yeah. Oh, my God. The hollandaise is flowing.

And, oh, you just popped a strawberry in your ass. I've got a brunch. What is this, ladies. You ladies are twisted. Still got COVID. I think it's like a nice summer spritzer. It's fine.

Yeah. We had champagne at Corbell. Corbell. We opened it the classical method. Not the best. Not. We opened it the classical method, not with the best. Not the best. California's own. Champagne that's out there, but not the worst. Yeah.

Have we talked about that classic Corbell commercial before? Yes, but refresh us. A guy from the 90s, a fancy guy and a fancy lady are making out on a couch, and then he takes off her high-heeled shoe, and he pours champagne in the shoe. He takes a sip and spits it out. And she's like, what is it? My feet? And he goes, the champagne is in Corbell. And I, as a kid, I thought that was, I knew that that was a silly situation, but I thought

like, yeah, champagne is not Corbell. It's not champagne. It's quite literally the opposite. Corbell is California made, not, uh, you know, sparkling white wine doesn't even count as champagne. Champagne. Champagne. You ever drink out of one of those boots? Have we talked about this? Oh, no, we gotta do that.

We gotta do that for a blowout. You gotta point the toe down. Point it down. Because if you point it up, you get to that air bubble and ga-thunk. Tidal wave, tsunami time. Yeah, I'd be ready for it. I'd watch out of the way and the guy behind me gets splashed. You dodged it. 40 ounces of your beer. Sorry, bud. And you gotta ready for it. I'd watch out of the way and the guy behind me gets splashed. You dodged. You dodged it.

40 ounces of your beer. Boosh. Sorry, bud. And you got to pay for it. And you got to pay for it. You got to pay for my mistakes. You know, he begrudgingly takes out his wallet and counts out the money. I don't know why the hell I'm doing this.

I just don't want him to talk to me anymore. Aren't there like little boots that you can do with like red lines? Like child's shoes? Yeah, like child's shoes. No, Rustic I feel like has maybe a more can do with like red lines. Like child's shoes? Yeah, like child's shoes. No, Rustic, I feel like, has maybe a more... Manageable boot? More manageable boot. Beer boot, never worn.

Sad. I think they have a normal-ish size beer boot also at the red line, but then the biggie for when you want to splash. Big boy. Going back to peaches, you guys, you're peach fans, right? In general? Yep. I could eat a peach for hours.

What's that from? Cage? It's Cage. In Face Off? Yeah. Or? Face Off. Face Off.

Call me by your name, Jizz Peach. Oh, my God. Oh! This is my impression of the props guy on Call Me By Your Name. Okay, yeah, these are the peaches. What is he doing of the props guy on Call Me By Your Name okay yeah these are the peaches what is he doing with the peaches

he's protecting why didn't he read the script I've been in this my first day I'm filling it in for somebody I'm the hell he's protective

of his peach props so weird that Italian movie hired that goofy southerner I know funny huh he's the best man with the peaches

how do you get in there I'm from the south of Italy yeah I'm from the south I live near Yeah. I'm from the south. I live near the toe of the boot. Oh, speaking of boots, I love wearing those. Hee haw. All right.

Here's the peaches you boys need. Now roll them. Not the peaches, you dumb shit. Ooh. Peaches reminds me of a drink that I've invented. Ooh. This kind of came up on the pot. The Bellini.

Remember when we did, I think we had the sexes on the beach and we had some peach schnapps left over and i was like what am i gonna do with my peach schnapps hey i guess you could make you could oh i got loads of that stuff i haven't touched it since that day here's here's a drink i made and it's kind of like a good southern porch drink in fact maybe i'll call it the port southern porch drink you make almost almost like a uh like a old-fashioned right a big fat old-fashioned glass with a big cube in it a couple two ounces of bourbon plop a couple dashes of payshodes bitters the red one. Plink, plink. Okay. Then, up top about a half an ounce of peach schnapps.

And it's like a southern steamy night, sitting on the porch, mopping your brow, sipping a peachy old fashem. It's been a long day doing whatever you're doing. Wait for the train. Long day kind of persecuting people who are different than you. And this is a drink for those people.

Now my beliefs don't align with yours. Jeez. We got a certain way of doing things around here. Yowch. Maybe you shouldn't give people like that more alcohol. Oh, yeah. You know, whatever. They deserve it.

Well, you're hoping to soften their spirit with a sweet peach. I like peaches. I very rarely can find one that I like. You've got to let it sit. But yeah, you put it in a paper bag. Is that crazy? I don't even do a bag. You've just got to be patient. You don't eat it straight out of the grocery store.

I breathe into a paper bag so I can stop hyperventilating while I'm shopping for the peaches. The peaches are so good This one's not ripe This one's overripe The other day Jeff and I were walking down The driveway next to his building

And we see an avocado Smushed on the ground We both looked up Because there was a tree right there An avocado tree And it was a pine tree So we said That probably can't be there

And then we didn't know Where it came from And we decided Must have rolled Yeah From the grocery store Got loose Could have been a prankster

Throwing a little avocado at you Bam Ashton Bitch Ashton Ashton and Bam Are teaming up To throw

Avocados We put avocados On people's driveways now Let's see if We put avocados on people's driveways now. Let's see if Rab himself notices the avocado. Hey guys, did you do this? Yeah. Yes, Rab.

Yes. I like Rab, but he's no Rake, huh? Rake Yawn? Rake Yawn? Yeah, Rake with the long hair. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Man, I haven't seen uh oh we like why cky2k yeah or any of any of the ck's rake has a fear of mustard right like a phobia like he's also like a chemist right he's like a scientist he's like an engineer yeah there you go and they but but there was a prank where they put like they tricked him into like they put some mustard on his food and

he started crying. I wonder how that where that comes from. I think a mustard seed killed his kids. Weren't they in high school when they shot this? Yeah. Wow. I don't think I'm afraid of mustard. Ketchup I'm a little suspicious of.

You know who else is a chemist? The guy from Offspring. Dexter Holland? Dexter Holland. Chemist? Yeah. In what? What do you mean?

In the field of chemistry, Michael. Like he works as a chemist? No, I think he's got like a degree. Maybe even more than a bachelor's. I met him one time and I was like, hey, I've got some vinegar and some baking soda. What should I do? And he said, keep them separated. Yeah.

Yeah. I remember I was just like, I remember seeing, I was like, I have some vinegar and some baking soda. I should keep them separated, right? And he went, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I hate when he does that. Yeah. Well, I was actually in one of his chemistry classes. I can't remember if I remember that.

And finals was happening. He was like the star student. Sure. And I have struggled with it because I'm not very science and math brain. More of a literature guy. Oh, I love it. And creative, the creative. Yeah.

And, you know, I'm sitting there in my dorm working, studying so hard. And he's outside playing Frisbee, you know, and I'm just like, I don't want to see this. And he throws a little rock at my window. And I said, what? He says, hey, come out and play. And I said, I'm not as good at science. I got to do the science study.

You had to study. I had to study. Man. Hey, speaking of Bellini. Yeah. You know what I was thinking? I was trying to think of that word. Because I hadn't had a Bellini before, but I was like, why do I like the word Bellini?

And I remember, do you remember a sketch on Kids in the Hall with Paul Bellini? Yeah, the guy with the towel? Yes. Yeah. There's a writer. There's like a Toronto TV writer named Paul Bellini that wrote for the show. And they had some bit that was like, it was like a sweepstakes for Paul Bellini to come to your house or something, maybe.

And it was just like this kind of like fat guy in a towel. Yeah. I remember he had the towel around his waist, like way high. Real high. It looked really funny. And it was like, they just loved the visual of sending Paul Bellini out places what a name Paul Bellini

that is funny hey did that kids in the hall reunion ever come back or come out I don't think it's out yet I never saw it I feel like that was like starting writing right as COVID happened that's going to be on Amazon but they never really stopped, right?

They're always sort of coming out with stuff occasionally or doing sketch fest and stuff. Death comes to town. Yeah, right. It's not a reunion, I guess, just a reboot. They had a cool thing they used to do in LA where they would take a week and they'd meet up on a Monday

and write a bunch of sketches and rehearse them and then do a four-night run of Thursday, Friday, saturday sunday at the steve allen oh yeah doing and it was like the understanding they were like hey we're we're like this old sketch group and we like working together and we want to be low pressure and fun so by putting those constraints on it it was like it's not gonna be our best stuff it's not a greatest hit show we're just gonna take you out and have some fun and you come see the show it's only 10 $10. Right, right. Especially if you're... Yeah, you could write a show forever if there's no restraint because you're not getting paid.

And it's like, let's just not do it. Steve Allen Theater, completely gone now. Yeah. Dirt patch. Last time I was here, I was surprised. That's where we did our first shows with Bob. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Rogue Man and what was the other one called seven man sweater yeah seven man sweater that's right um do you guys remember when we met bruce mccullough yes uh yeah we were shooting a funnier dive video with uh jenny and d uh dave neer yeah oh yeah and it was at like the renaissance fair in irwindale and and we had a lunch break and uh bruce mccullough was in the same uh video as us and he came over and he was like you guys are a sketch group and we're like yeah and he's like well then how come you aren't fighting was it dave who like before one of the takes to like tickled one of you guys and was like ready to do some comedy that's funny comedy uh i remember that being like a stressful shoot because we had to leave quickly or something yeah do we have a show we had to do maybe

could have been we were way out there the irwindale is where there's a big rock quarry and that's where like there was like this evil LA businessman that wanted to buy the Raiders and have them play out there in Irwindale. And everybody like protested because when that'd be so weird, if like the LA rate at the time it was LA Raiders, if they played out by a rock quarry in Irwindale, there was also a, it was a,

uh, the site of a Renaissance fair. Yes. Yes. Oh, we should do a Renaissance fair for the blowout yep that one still happens thy knave i'm getting a turkey leg oh and i'm gonna dunk you in the gallows and i'm gonna throw an axe and i'm a wench mike and be the king all All right. The Renaissance really was a period of rebirth. You had art.

You had... But it also, but it was a fair. Yeah. In early times. Yes, yes. And hey, when I say Renaissance fair, I'm not talking about medieval times. I'm talking about the one where people get a little horny

and they put on costumes. And it's sort of a role play thing for people, you know? Yeah, I don't know if I'm going to be there to watch you get off. No, no, it's not for me to get off. It's for you and you. It's for you and it's for you to get off there and you over there. It's for everyone. If I go to your Renaissance

Festival, you have to come to my Civil War reenactment group. Okay. I think that would be fun. If you can get a pot out of it um also they call it the out here they call it the renaissance pleasure fair really that's why i think it's sort of maybe got a little bit of is it like an adults only thing no no kids can get horny too yeah but they shouldn't be there i like the idea of a pleasure i think i'm gonna start taking more time to enjoy earthly pleasure.

You know, yeah, we should start a pleasure fair that's not Renaissance. It's just modern day. Pleasure. A modern day pleasure fair brought to you by the Slops. We should do an episode about forbidden desire. Oh, yeah. Isn't that our kinks episode? Oh, yeah.

Has anyone else done their Bellini? I got one last little sip. Is it round two time? Yeah, I think so. Ding, ding, ding. Oh, you know what? What? We couldn't find that Simply Peach at first, but we did find some Bundabergs.

Oh, yeah. Bundaberg Peach? Bundaberg Peach. Bubbly peach what? Ginger? Soda. Like sparklingaberg peach Bubbly peach What ginger Soda Like sparkling soda With peach Just peach flavor

I think we found our next I think that might be Round two Let's do it Same proportions Two to one Love it Let's do it

Folks Sienna Jeffy Sienna Jeffy Yeah there you go Come on Jeffy Pop And Tim and Mike Tim and Mike

I'm sorry these guys are here. And we're back with some tweaks. A big tweak. We're using Bundaberg peach. What does it say on that thing? It just says Bundaberg peach. Flavored sparkling fruit drink. This might be the...

It's a carbonated... Oh, this smells very peachy. Let's see the ingredients. Sugar. Carbonated water. Cane sugar. Peach juice from ingredients. Sugar. Carbonated water. Cane sugar. Peach juice from concentrate. Okay.

This is much more yellow. Orange. Yeah. Let's do it. It's got a thicker. Weird. It just. It kind of like

the taste it goes away it just tastes more artificial it's the more artificial it goes to waste more artificial

version of the last one it tastes like a little bit more like a peach schnapps like a a little more synthetic I mean this is fine I like it I like all of them

I like everything that doesn't I can't taste the champagne as much in that which is for me good now that this which is, for me, good. Now that this one is bubbly, you added bubbles to bubbles, so it's full-strength bubbles. This one I would have on the rocks.

Yeah. You know what I used to love as a kid? I probably would love it as an adult. I just don't drink very much soda. It's when you have Coca-Cola on the rocks and the fizz tickles your nose. That's nice. Tickles your fancy.

Tickles your fanny. You know when you get a fountain Coke and it's a good one and you're like, oh my God, that's a good fountain Coke. And you get a bad one. Oh no, it's a bad fountain Coke. Have you heard that thing that McDonald's has like a different Coke syrup recipe or ratio than other, that they have like a proprietary deal with Coke?

Somebody told me also that Coke, that McDonald's has a slightly wider gauge straw. That makes sense to me. That's a big straw. Thick. Yeah. Wider gauge. Slightly. Yeah.

So maybe it was you that told me that. Hey, you want a thick straw, go get yourself a boba. Stop. You know, these days, you can only use the paper straws. Those things get so soft. That's what's really killing the turtle. Mike. No.

Mike, stop. It's the corporations. How do we all come right back to the corporations? You want a thick straw. Look no farther than Phil Lesh. I'm talking Jack Straw from Wichita, baby. Thick straw? He plays the bass.

He's got a thick bass line on Jack Straw. Yeah, yeah. It's pretty good. Yeah, yeah. Nobody's debating that the idea is he's laying down a thick bass line nice

what do you say final thoughts what do you think I'll go first and say that I like it more than the mimosa i like i like the most mimosa i like this but i think if i were out at brunch and i saw bellini we didn't really have the authentic fresh puree and i bet if we did it would be worth my time yeah same i like a mimosa i was i've been on record yeah i'm clearly right here on this podcast is something about liking a mimosa I mean you know I'm not psyched about it

but it's good I'll rev the fuck up over it I would bum what bums me out is that like there's a million juices and you know if we picked up that carrot juice and added it to champagne we could name it and there's only so many things out there yeah you just got to be first to name it and uh there's only so many things out there yeah you just got to be first to the punch right because there's hey how about champagne and fruit punch oh champagne and like uh hawaiian punch that's right yeah punchini punchini there you go stop this for me is a not order again if i was at a brunch and they said you've got two drinks you could have the bellini or a champagne flute filled with

ripped up pieces of paper. I would pick the Bellini. In that case, that's what I would pick. I agree. Anything else besides that exact situation, I will not take this. Wow.

Even other ripped up objects other than paper? Yeah. It's the paper. I just don't want to put ripped up objects other than paper yeah it's the paper I just don't want to put ripped up paper on it what if it's a real nice papyrus ooh that might be good well now you guys are smart people right yeah some of the smartest

well maybe you can put those smarts to the test with this week's quiz. This week's quiz is the Bellini Rhyme Zone quiz. Okay. Question number one. Sorry. Hold on. What does that mean?

Perhaps that's part of the quiz. Okay. Okay. I have my answer for question number one. Frederico. Question number one. Fuck. Eight and a half my answer for question number one. Frederico. Question number one. Fuck. Eight and a half?

We don't even know how this works. Well. Okay, go ahead. Bellini. Rhyme zone. Rhyme zone quiz. A woman's two-piece. What is a.

Bikini. Fuck. God damn it. Bikini. Women's two-piece swimsuit featuring two triangles. I just like that. That shit. Two triangles? What Wikipedia calls a bikini. Feuit featuring two triangles. I just like that definition. Two triangles?

What Wikipedia calls a bikini. Featuring two triangles of fabric on top that cover the woman's breasts and two triangles of fabric on the bottom, the front covering the pelvis, but exposing the navel, the back covering the buttocks. I guess. Yep.

There you go. This summer, I'm going to wear one of those one-piece bathing suits. It's like a big V. It just barely covers the nipples and then it just meets down in the center. Actually, I found this interesting. May 1946, Parisian fashion designer Jacques Haim released a two-piece swimsuit design that he called the Atome, the Atom, and advertised as the smallest swimsuit

in the world. Ha. But then somebody else, the bikini is a variation. It's even smaller, and it's where the first public test of a nuclear bomb was done, on the Bikini Beach. Oh. Right, right, right. Bikini Atoll, I should say.

Bikini Atoll. Okay. Tim, you have one. Yeah. I'm keeping your score on my left hand. Got it. Have you figured out the game, my boy? Uh-huh.

This pasta, originally from Italian region of Emilia, traditionally they are stuffed with a mix of meat, pork loin. Rotini. Rolatini. Not yet. Parmigiano Reggiano Tortellini Egg and nutmeg served in a capone broth

Bond prefers them shaken. Martini. God damn it. I was in the middle of a sip. What are you doing with a sip? I know, I know. Yeah, but he also will sometimes have a Vesper. Yeah.

A Vesper. All right. Number four in the Bellini rhyme zone quiz. Yeah. Upon his death in April 1945, his corpse was hung in the town square. Houdini. Upon his death in April 1945 His corpse was hung in the town square For the townspeople to spit on And stone as an act of revenge And discourage any Italian fashion Mussolini

Mussolini And listen to this When Mussolini and his little henchmen Were trying to leave They were going to go to Switzerland And take a plane to Spain They were stopped In their car or something, in the village of Dongo by a communist partisan named Valerio and Bellini.

All right, we are four to one right here. Okay, great. Okay, here we go. This man is my all-time favorite filmmaker. Fred and Michael Fellini. Who said Fellini first?

He said the first name. I also said Fellini before the whole thing. At the top. When you were saying eight and a half, I was like, shut the hell up. I'll tell you, I wish I had eight and a half points in this game right about now. Okay, four to two. You're coming back, Jeff. Great. This popular movie character was heard to remark in song,

you ain't never had a friend like me. The genie. That was a close one. A tie, perhaps? Maybe a tie. I wanted to give it to Jeff because I want to make this a little closer. Oh, shit. He got it.

That third point just popped up on Mike's hand. Whoa. I had no control over it. Yeah, I'm not going to argue with that. I mean. Okay. Two more left. Okay, yeah.

Jeff, you can tie or lose right now because there's only nine questions. Oh, okay. This Todd was known most creepily as the Demon Barber of Fleet Street. Todd Sweeney. God damn it. Sweeney Todd. Yeah, okay. Yeah, Todd comma Sweeney.

Yeah, that's it, yeah. All right, well, okay, so it looks like Tim is going to win. Well. Do you want to boost any points? Wait, we have point boost? You just need to boost one to tie. So the big question is, does Jeff want to boost any of his points?

So it's four to three. It's five to three. Oh, shit. Yeah. So if he boosted two points... Do you want to boost two of your points to tie it? Yeah, sure, sure, sure. Okay, but you have to say it.

Yeah, I'd like to boost two of my points. I should be mad, but I'm so happy you didn't boost three of your points. Oh, you know. You should have. You could have won. Or at least Tim would have a chance to tie you. I would have then boosted one of mine. All right.

Tiebreaker? This is the tiebreaker. I can't believe that you had the boost option. I know. Everyone did. You did too. Why didn't you do any boosts? You know, in Mario Kart 64, if you're in last place,

you're all the more likely to get one of those lightning bolts. That's why you hang around back there. Yeah. Those things, I would get those sometimes and just be so excited. I'd like go the wrong way. Okay. Okay. Last question.
