Yeah, really.
Second half.
There may be some conditions in which you need to store some of these hazmat style bourbons.
I'm unaware of.
I don't know.
I usually just stick it in a fucking corner of the room.
But should it be in a cool, well ventilated area?
I don't know.
But they do recommend certain apparel while you're drinking it.
Interesting.
We want to talk about it.
We'll talk about it in a little bit.
It's our secret there.
I can't hear you, Jeff.
Oh, is that better?
Oh, Mike Etiquette.
What is going on?
You need to raise that mic up.
Look at it all hunched down.
I mean, I don't care if you want to hunch down.
No, it does look kind of hunchy, doesn't it?
Yeah, that's not good posture.
Yeah.
There you go.
Lava lamps kicking.
Yeah, I turned that on about two o'clock today.
Wow.
Trying to keep the room up.
It's very juicy.
Yeah.
I was up here editing our Larry first half.
Mr. Larry Cuvion?
Yeah, because I'm too behind now, so I need to get Larry's up.
I'll try to do his second half tomorrow, and then I'll get the boozing baking company.
Slurring.
I want that noted.
Boozy baking company.
I want that noted.
He is officially slurring.
Boozy baking company.
Yeah, we're from Asia, and we watch your boozy bakery.
And this is the start of the second half.
I think this has numbed my face.
I'm telling you.
All right, so this is the second half of Dudes Like Us podcast.
It's November 19th, 2024.
It's just a stone's throw away from Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving.
So excited.
Wow.
What's wrong?
I'm just...
Thanksgiving.
Yeah.
You're excited?
Well, you know what?
Maybe it's because I've been trying to diet and not eat as much and the fasting every
single day, but something just fucking bitch slapped me.
I've loosed my faculties here.
Do you...
You've been talking about...
You know what?
Let's get into fasting just briefly after we do our...
You want me to tell you what I do?
Well, let's do our introduction.
Oh, Dudes Like Us.
I'm Sean.
I'm Paul.
And I am Jeff.
All right.
Check us out at Dudes Like Us dash podcast and food crafting and just smash that button.
Like us, follow us, subscribe and see what makes us feel good.
And we'll bring you to light all the wonderful whiskies out there that we sample.
We'll rate it and hopefully you guys will follow our lead.
And we have a special one tonight we'll be talking about.
Oh my God.
I think it's the specialist one.
Look at it's butt.
It's very nice.
Anyway, so fasting.
All right.
So I saw that an article about basically people like to...
They have different variations of fasting.
Bottom line is said, do not skip breakfast.
Do not skip lunch.
Just don't eat in the evening at all.
Don't eat at night.
Do not eat like between...
They didn't give a time, but don't eat between seven and the next morning.
So everyone, there are a lot of different solutions out there.
I don't necessarily...
Oh my God.
I don't subscribe to that.
It's gotten all of us.
No, not me.
I'm talking absolutely normal.
I don't subscribe to that.
So I mean, I'm all about the fasting.
So what I do is I don't eat till two.
So if I eat breakfast, okay, I eat breakfast at two.
So I think that's kind of the wrong thing that you want to say.
You're saying eat in the morning, eat lunch.
They say do not skip breakfast.
All right.
So what if your breakfast is later?
No.
Well, you know what breakfast is?
It's a breakfast.
You're breaking your fast.
Right.
And the fast is from 6 PM to 8 AM.
That's your fast.
I don't know.
I disagree.
And it's based on me, essentially.
It's based on my experience.
It does...
Hold on.
There we go.
Open it up.
Finger kind of hurt there.
Is that your workout?
No, no, no.
My trampoline is my workout.
Everyone knows that.
I'm an avid trampolinist.
Are you going to join the Olympics for their gymnastics?
Yes.
And you need one of those little handheld swirling...
Ribbons?
Ribbons.
I could do ribbons.
You would be a kick-ass trampolinist.
Do it again.
Just for fun.
No, no, no.
I got dizzy.
It's got to be fun.
It was very aggressive.
Yes.
So for me, particularly, I mean, look, I'm not saying you're not right or wrong.
What I'm saying is that there's conflicting stories out there.
So the idea is to eat six hours during the day.
So you want your body to fast for an extended period.
So it doesn't really matter when that is.
Now, I mean, what is your...
Why are you singing in the morning?
This article was a doctor.
So one article, one doctor.
Oh, no.
Actually, I read 1,300 articles in the last two hours.
So no, I mean, it was just another opinion.
Everybody has their own take on their own opinion.
They need to differentiate themselves.
That's all right.
I mean, because look, when you get up in the morning and you want to get that energy...
Here's why I disagree with that.
Because I think that the body demands nourishment in the morning.
It does.
So when you don't give it that nourishment and you extend that period up until where
I'm eating, like two o'clock, your body is in kind of like some sort of survival mode.
And it starts to eat away at those things in your body that you don't need, essentially.
Like your appendix?
No, like...
Like your scrotum?
I hope not.
God bless.
There's just balls hanging there?
Just free?
Just little testes hanging.
No, it's just, you know, your body eats away at itself a little bit better.
You know, that's my opinion.
And you know what, it has worked for me.
So I mean, I have done the eat breakfast and the don't eat all day, but that's painful.
Yeah.
That's painful.
It's painful no matter what, because...
I don't subscribe to any of that.
Well, you don't have to.
Every morning I don't eat until...
Meaning you're not fat.
Yeah.
Dick.
But, whoa.
Whoa.
I'm sorry, Richard.
You ain't fat.
I haven't seen you at Burger Word lately.
Yeah, I don't eat breakfast until nine o'clock or after.
And I usually go to the gym between 730 and eight, and then I come home.
Really?
And then I eat, yes.
Like how many days a week?
Three days.
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
Shit.
Good for you.
Yeah.
So then I eat.
That's why you're so buffed.
No shit.
And on Tuesdays and Thursdays, even on the weekends, I don't eat until no earlier than
nine o'clock.
I'm impressed.
For one reason, I don't have an appetite.
No, it's not that part.
It's the working out.
Monday, Wednesday, Friday.
Like religiously.
That's a good routine.
For the last...
Yeah, Austin, the producer sees him in the gym frequently when he's in there.
Because Austin gets up around the same time.
Yeah, he's there a lot.
I see him.
And good for Austin, too.
I love it.
I love seeing that, man.
I'm glad you're going.
I was going to give him shit today because he was wearing slides.
Oh, is that bad?
Why can't you wear slides?
When you're working...
Lifting weights?
Lifting weights.
You can wear slides.
You can't wear slides playing basketball.
Young guys like Austin wear the slides with the crocs.
Ephesians 6 chapter...
Oh.
Ephesians chapter 6, verses 10 through 18.
May your feet shot with the preparation of the gospel of peace, which means wear the
correct shoes for where you need to be.
What is happening right now?
Did he just quote scripture?
I know.
This is a first.
First off, we would need a fact check.
It's the armor of God.
I thought you were going to say, oh, wear slides of honor.
No, it's the armor of God.
It's Ephesians chapter 6, verses 10 through 18.
Or is it Ezekiel?
No, it's...
Wow.
Beware the...
Beware the eyes of March.
Yeah.
I think your extensive knowledge of the Bible just wore a little thin there.
No, but I noticed the young folks, you know, Austin's age, the early 20s.
Yeah.
Late teenagers.
They're wearing slides.
They're wearing crocs.
What's wrong with that?
They're wearing slippers.
When you go to the gym, you don't wear...
You want to wear supportive feet shoes when you're lifting heavyweights.
Interesting.
Okay.
Like, like power lifters, like what Brandon was doing, the power lifting team, they have
specific shoes that you buy to do squats, deadlift, and stuff like that.
Right.
Well, I mean, that's...
I mean, I've had experience with that.
All right.
Is that, like, let's say I'm in a restroom at some gas station when we're traveling and
we're looking for the right one for me to go pee.
Yes.
And I'm standing there.
Which is not an easy thing to do.
It's not an easy task.
So I went to this one place and I'm standing there peeing, right?
Yeah.
And while I'm standing there, involuntarily, what happens?
You...
You're down your shoe.
No.
My legs start to slide on that slippery floor.
What?
They just like, they're moving outward because...
This has never, ever happened to me.
Ever.
Well, you get the urine oil.
Yeah.
There's a certain...
It's greasy.
Oh, it's like when rain hits the pavement after it hasn't rained for months.
Well, then what happens is...
And then it mixes with the oil.
Well, no.
And it becomes...
Well, the people urinate all over the floor and then it kind of evaporates, but leaves
the solids in the oils.
Oh, yes.
Jesus Christ.
No, he's on the...
So that is kind of greasy.
So your feet slide.
Yeah, obviously the second half of the dude's like a show.
So...
It's the urine salve.
All right.
So back to the fasting part.
I usually have in this order, I'll have...
I get up in the morning and what I do is I have a cup of coffee and I want to share something
else medical wise that I wanted to talk about.
Don't let me forget, it's called a drinking water.
Oh.
Yeah.
No, no.
This is important for acid.
A lot of people out there have acid reflux, right?
Sure.
So before I dive into that, I want to say for me, what I do is I get up in the morning,
have a cup of coffee, I finish it, do a pinch of loaf, whatever I'm going to do.
And then after that, I come out and I squeeze a lemon.
All right?
So I squeeze a lemon and I mix a little cayenne pepper in there and bam, slam that muffin.
And then I have five Brazilian nuts.
All right?
Those are my least favorite nuts.
Yeah.
Well, you know...
Yeah.
But they're the...
So that's what I do.
So...
You get to buy big bags of those at Costco now.
Gross.
Oh, I love it.
I love a bag of them.
All right.
I like them.
So that's my morning thing.
So fasting.
Yes.
If I eat the Brazilian nuts, technically I didn't fast because I'm eating those nuts.
But still, I won't eat lunch until two o'clock.
It's a hard two o'clock.
But at 11 o'clock in the morning, what I do is I take two eggs and I start to boil it.
I set the timer for 30 minutes and then I set the eggs there and let them cool down
and around two o'clock, I eat them.
Eggs.
Two hard-boiled eggs.
I have a hard-boiled egg and a protein bar every day for lunch.
Gross.
I mean, not only do I hate Brazilian nuts, Brazil nuts...
Brazilian nuts?
Brazil nuts.
They're Brazilian.
Brazilian nuts.
It's like a Brazilian wax.
Sure.
They're hairless.
Just like that.
Yeah, they are hairless.
But not only do I not like those, hard-boiled eggs are just about the grossest thing I could
think of.
So, so far, your diet is disgusting to me.
I want to share something that I've struggled with for a very, very long time.
I have...
E.D.
I have...
I've never had that.
I have a difficult time managing my stomach acid.
Acid reflux stuff.
Yes.
So, I was listening to Dr. Barbara O'Neill.
You know, I highly recommend you guys listen to her.
She's a holistic doctor.
She was in the regular world of doctors as a PhD.
And she got kind of disbarred, so to speak, because she was kind of like, yeah, this is
bullshit.
We're not doing this for the right reasons.
She went holistic.
This is all about trying to make money for the pharmaceuticals.
Well, Jill Biden's have a PhD.
Yeah.
What?
What kind of PhD does she have?
Doctor.
Okay.
Well, so is Joe Biden.
Oh, yeah, Joe Biden.
You mean Jill?
Do you listen to her?
Jill Biden, yeah.
Jill?
Oh, well, yeah, but that was like a gift.
That wasn't a real one.
That's why I asked.
Well, she wants to be called Dr. Jill Biden.
She does.
She's got a medical doctorate, is what Barbara O'Neill has.
Yes.
Okay.
Yeah.
So, he said in the world of doctors.
In the world of doctors.
That's what he meant by medical.
You could have a doctorate of philosophy.
I get it.
But when he says, when Sean says world of doctors.
Of library science.
Medical doctors.
You have to read between the lines, Sean.
So what she says is that, and she says it so kind of condescendingly too.
You know, she's like, when you go, she got this English accent.
She's such a petite.
She's fucking in her late eighties, by the way.
She looks like a hippie.
Yeah.
Well, she's in her late eighties and she looks like a hippie.
She looks like she's in her fricking late fifties, early sixties.
But anyways, what she says is like, she's like, you, when you go to a restaurant, you
sit down and eat, they immediately bring you water.
Don't drink the water.
You're not supposed to drink the water.
You drink the water an hour before you eat and an hour after you eat.
And that in itself.
I've heard that.
Is it's not a secret that in itself is what I've been exercising for the last two weeks.
So I have religiously been taking these anti acid or acid inhibitor pills and they, they
help us.
Prilosec or something like that, right?
Yeah.
Something like that.
And I've been, I've taken forever and it's, and I get sick of taking, I hate taking pills
at the end of the day, I don't want to take these pills.
And so I'm super excited to announce that I stopped taking the pill.
I've been on, I not have been on the, I've not been on the pills for about a month.
So you're having your period.
Yeah.
Ooh.
No, what I'm not having is I don't have this acid reflux.
And all I've been doing is I've been, I've been not drinking water.
I mean, I drink water, but I mean, it's just like, I make sure I time is I have, I mean
it too.
That's what I mean.
I'm not going to drink water after 1231.
Gotcha.
You know, and then I'm going to wait an hour after I eat.
And I'll tell you that simple little window of opportunity has changed things.
So my nutritionist said that, do not drink water with your meal so that you have maximum
absorption of the nutrients of the meal that you eat.
Well, you don't dilute the acid either.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's true.
That's 100% true.
And what Jeff said is more over what I'm getting at.
Right.
You know, it's because, because
You need the acid.
Well, you need it.
You need the acid, but when you drink water, people are like, you know, they, they, they
drink profusely in the middle of dinner.
It's like, don't do that because what you, what you do is that you weaken the acid.
It doesn't break down the nutrients and it sits there in your stomach and it just kind
of rumbles and acids to your body.
It's like, Hey, there's something in there.
We need to get rid of it.
And it starts to more acid, more acid, more acid.
And then it's just, you know, it's, it's, it's a whirlwind of purple rain going on down
there.
And one of the things that my new, my nutritionist said is that, uh, common medical practice
is to take antacid, right?
Ant acids.
Right.
And he says that's the exact opposite of what you should do.
You should take HCL, which is acid.
You take acid.
So the idea is your body, you know, your, your, when you are starving your stomach of,
of acid, because you're taking antacids, it's causing your body to react with overproducing
acid.
You do the opposite.
You take acid so that your body recognizes that you have enough in your stomach and it
starts to train your body to produce less stomach acid.
So you drink like lemon juice.
This one was literally a supplement, which was HCL.
Like you take hydrochloric acid.
Uh, I don't think it's, I don't think it's that it's it's stomach.
It's the acid that you, it's the opposite of an antacid.
Right.
So I think it is.
It's the stuff that cleans your pool.
I think it is.
I think it is HCL, if I remember correctly, you can look it up, but it's, uh, anyway,
that's what he, that's, that's what he, as a nutritionist was arguing.
Uh, you know what?
I'm not going to say yay or nay because who the fuck am I?
But I will say that I have, I'm happy with the new direction that things are going.
Yeah.
And you know, I've decreased the amount.
I haven't taken the pills.
I'm going to throw those fuckers away and, and, and I've decreased the amount of antacids
that I'm taking, you know, and to back up on the Ephesians, a chapter in the book, uh,
chapter six, uh, you know, put on the whole armor of God that you may now be able to stand
against the wild, the devil for we not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principles
against powers against the rules of darkness and age.
Actually it goes on for the work.
It starts to elaborate on the different made your feet shod with the preparation of the
gospel of peace and he wore the armor of the chest plate of God, which is the Bible, you
know, the sword, I'm sorry, which is the word of God.
Yeah.
So I'm just saying that that's that to me, when I hear people that weren't the property
appropriate clothing or the shoes, that's what kind of like hits me is like, dude, dress
for success.
Period.
Right.
Interesting.
I just want to note again, that's the first time that we've quoted scripture, which I
think is a great trend.
I say we open every podcast with, with scripture.
It would be helpful, especially from revelations, right?
All right.
End of time.
Uh, today we're going to discuss if today is the end of times.
Um, so yeah, well, well, I'll tell you.
Something that happened this, uh, this, this, this week, you know, is this the Mike Tyson
fight in that Jake, what does his name Jake Paul?
Jake Paul.
Yeah.
What a, first of all, this is a fucking joke.
I skipped it.
Well, let's talk about you skipped it, but I skipped it too, but it wasn't cause I wanted
to watch Netflix and they had major technical issues with the bandwidth that Netflix couldn't
support.
It was so bad.
It was bad.
You know, they queuing, the queuing, the queue.
This was supposed to be a big test for them because they have an NFL game coming up.
I know they do.
And they failed miserably.
They did.
They show, Hey, I, you know, do a test.
There's no better way to learn than a failure.
Right.
How do you, how you can run simulations, but how do you test your network for a hundred
million people without actually doing it?
Right.
What you do is you subscribe to what was necessary when they do the super bowl.
You know, they, they do the super bowl.
So what do they use?
What is that platform?
What did, what do they use?
That's broadcast over the airwaves.
Well, I mean, yeah, no, it's not over broadband.
It is broadcast over, but they, yeah, it is.
That's NBC ABC.
It's all digital though.
But the thing is, I don't think this same amount of people are streaming it that are
watching it over the air.
So you're saying that the majority of the people watch it over the airwaves as opposed
to the digital format coming right into the box.
You see what I'm saying?
I'm lost.
Tableau, you and I, Jeff, you and I subscribe to Tableau.
Right.
So absolutely 100%.
Whatever's out there is out there.
It's out there.
No matter what you just pull it out of the sky.
I see what you're saying.
So if you subscribe to spectrum cable TV, it's totally digitized.
It's digitized, but it's still the, I don't know.
You've got a good question.
There's still a number of connections to the, to the platform that's streaming the service.
Whatever it was, they fucking failed.
Yeah.
So in the IT world is called load testing, right?
So there are platforms that you, and then you have to decide what level of load testing
you're going to do.
Like how many simultaneous concurrent connections to the platform.
So you could test a hundred millions at one time.
Damn.
I mean, you, the farm you have to put together for that, like the number of servers you have
to spin up to, to, to simulate that is daunting and expensive.
But damn, in hindsight, they should have done it.
Or do they go, okay, let's do 10% of that and see how we handle it.
Right.
Let's do 10 million.
Yeah.
But in the grand scheme of things, nobody gives a fuck about that with Tyson five.
Yeah.
There were a bunch of people disappointed, but the, the, the, the fight was a farce to
fight.
You know, it was, I mean, look, Mike made a ton of money.
Jake Logan, is that his name?
Jake Paul Logan.
I get him.
No, no, no.
I make the same mistake.
Paul, it is Jake Paul.
Or is it Jake Logan?
I don't care.
He's a, he's a YouTuber and frankly, I don't give a shit.
I want him to be successful because I think I don't care.
I don't care, but I don't respect somebody that is, is on a, as a YouTuber like that,
that hasn't, I mean, has he truly earned it?
Not as a fighter.
I don't think so.
I mean, for people, what's his name?
Dana white.
Am I saying it right?
Dana white.
So he had a pretty vicious quote about Jake Paul.
He was like, yeah, anybody who chooses to fight a 58 year old that speaks volumes for
itself and he refuses to pick, you know, fight somebody who's for real about Jake Paul.
That's what he's saying about Jake.
Oh yeah.
He's not a real fighter.
Quote unquote.
So that was pretty vicious.
Uh, you know, I mean, that's from, that's from a guy that knows, right?
I mean, he's like, anyway, so you know, if he wants to be real, he needs to fight real
people.
He needs to start at the bottom and start fighting real boxers.
This wasn't about, this wasn't about him wanting to be a boxer.
No, it was about the clicks.
This is about making money.
This was a contractual deal set up for Tyson.
I'll tell you what, what cracked me about Tyson prior to the fight was he was doing
a quick little interview.
He walks out there.
He's wearing, he's got this thing.
He goes out there with his little robot.
He starts touching his yin and yang is, Hey, you know what it was doing when he's weighing
in.
I was like, easy, easy, easy.
And then he turns around and walks away and his butts hanging out.
I thought it was fricking funny, man.
Yeah.
They, they, I saw a news article about, I didn't see that personally, but they were
like, and they just kept showing it, apparently showing it.
What's a butt.
I mean, he didn't spread his cheeks.
Yeah.
You see the hole, but is this after he slapped Jake Paul or before I was after he said, oh,
this is before the fight.
Oh, the way in or something.
This was way after the way in.
This was like right before the fight.
I got you.
I think this whole thing was a money grab.
It's all good for them.
A $60 million gimmick.
Good for them.
And it was like WWE.
There have been so many.
Yes.
I mean, it was a little more real than that because they were really throwing punches.
They were really throwing punches and they were really, but they weren't going all in.
There were analysts that would, that groomed the hell out of every single second of that.
And they were just like, yeah, he held back here.
He held back here.
He looked, he's telling him to, to back up.
He's, you know, he's like him and his biting his glove and there's all kinds of weird shit
going on.
That's unexplained.
It's just like, no, put him against, put Jake Paul against John Jones.
He just broke that meal church and half.
Yeah.
I didn't even see that fight, but it was the after the fight.
The over the top, over the top in your face, Trump dance.
And then he gets out of the ring and gives him the fricking belt.
I mean, you dude, I mean, and right now the sports world is exploding with Trump dances.
So they, they had a BOSA was it from the San Francisco 49ers, a defensive guy, BOSA got
five $10,000 for walking around or running into the middle of an interview with a little
bag of hair.
Well, yeah, well, they're going to start finding these guys for doing the Trump dance.
No, no, no, they have certain rules, right?
You cannot wear on the field for a game.
There's there's a apparel rules and he broke that rule.
You know what I'm saying?
But you're a black lives matter thing on the helmets.
There's, there's the argument right there.
That is bullshit.
But I'm just, I agree with you, but I'm just saying they are, I would sue them for the
10 grand and then they, and then they suit.
I mean, they, they find him for that.
And the, but, but the Trump dances, it's just a dance.
You can't, you can't, you can't find anybody for that.
And the NFL came out and said, they're not going to find it.
It was like, okay, well, fuck you.
Of course you're not going to find it.
You bricks.
Anyway, but it's exploding four to five different teams in the NFL colleges college.
We have a soccer player that did it, a pretty high profile soccer player that did it.
Everybody's doing it, man.
I mean, and what this is, is, is a Renaissance of people not being afraid to, to show how
they feel about Donald Trump.
And I think that's really what's kind of coming out is you can wear your MAGA hat or ever
now.
Yes.
And it's not, and you're not, well, you may still get some shit, but it's not going to
be to the level that it was.
Yeah, but now you can be like, suck it.
Yeah, suck it.
Yeah.
I'm wearing my MAGA hat.
Bitch.
Be offended.
And by the way, you're in the minority for being offended.
Yes.
But we shouldn't be that way though.
You know what though?
They made us into this.
I know they, they ridiculed us.
They mocked us.
They, they, they pushed us down.
They, they prevented our kids from enjoying senior high school.
The last year they pushed us in a corner with COVID.
I mean, they did everything they could and I say they, because I strongly believe that
the COVID thing was a coordinated effort to, to demolish Trump.
Honestly, I really believe that.
Yeah.
100%.
Yeah.
I mean, it's a, it was unfortunate.
It's just weird.
I love how Pelosi is catching so much shit.
She's so full of shit.
Even Fetterman has given her shit.
Dude, that's what's crazy.
The left is eating the left.
Oh yeah.
I mean, and they're saying, they're even saying Obama who was on, he's a God.
He's untouchable.
He needs to go away now.
Exactly.
That's what the left is saying.
They're like, yeah, you just lied in front of everybody.
You need to exit stage left.
Uh, Pelosi stage left.
I think Schumer stage left.
I mean, they're, they're turning on them.
Well, good.
Because they were leading a losing lying piece of shit effort.
There is room for Democrats to be in Congress.
There's room for them.
Of course.
There's a place for them.
I think you need it.
You do need them.
You have to have it.
You need both of them.
You need the yin and yang, you know, because there needs to be government assistance.
There needs to be government influence in our, within our lives.
But at the same time, you can't let the government influence rule extensively over where they
should.
You should let them cross the line.
And that's where the fight is.
Where should that line be drawn?
And that's why you say, you know, you were for the love for the right, for the left.
They're so far fucking left.
There's so far left.
And Kamala is like the, the, the, the poster child for fucking so far left.
Yep.
Ridiculous.
I think, uh, they felt in bold in by the 20, 20 when, and then they won in 2022, the midterms
right.
And the whole, uh, trans movement, when did that start?
Was that after Biden or is that during like the late teams?
Uh, I mean, it had to be during, during Obama.
Was it that far back?
I would think so.
Well, transgender rights movement in the United States can be traced back to the fifties.
Oh no, no.
I mean the, the latest crazy where they started doing the kids and the hospitals were chopping
dicks off.
We went crazy.
Yeah.
It's been around a long time, but when did it get crazy?
It was the Supreme court ruled that the civil rights act of 64 protects transgender people.
So you're, but you're right.
So like what you referred to is like they had like in the Navy on the ships, they got
these transgender dudes that dress up and they do a little dance.
That was like fun, you know, whatever.
I mean, I never thought of it like, dude, I never thought of like gay sex or anything
like that.
I just thought, yeah, I was like fucking Halloween.
I don't know.
Are you talking about like, uh, like the Bob Hope shows?
Yeah, something like that.
Or the, the, what do you call it when they read in the library?
The, the, the, the, no, the cow, the books.
Yeah.
They, they do gay hour drag drag.
You're talking about drag shows.
Okay.
So on, okay.
Do you remember Steven's, hold on Spielberg.
I think it's a golf.
Well, he had the USO, which was the traveling entertainment for the military.
And they dressed up as trainees.
That's what Sean is alluding to.
I don't know.
Okay.
So that was, uh, who's the blonde guy?
It's a goal.
Yeah.
Steven Seagal.
I was right.
Who's the under siege?
That's it.
Bam.
The trans shit's been around for a while.
Yeah.
You know, like you, like you just mentioned, but I mean, it's like in a bunch of movies,
it's it, it wasn't as prominent.
Yeah.
It wasn't, I don't know when it started, but I think, you know, like a hot button, they
were like, they're, they're, they're showing up in classrooms reading books.
Like you mentioned, they're, they're, they're just like in all the bars.
I'll tell you what, like I'll tell, I'll call them out cause I don't go fuck yellow Rose,
uh, distillery at Houston, Texas.
I mean, I mean, they, they just shut down their business.
I'm not saying it's because we've already been over this.
I know there was damage.
There was damage, hurricane damage to the building.
That's why they shut down.
Yeah, whatever.
So they're there, that's not that's quasi true, but it's, it's not the whole truth.
Okay.
They shut down, do like a sales, but they had damage from the storms.
Okay.
I was there though.
I'm just saying, well, I'm just saying that they have drag people that are showing up
every two days a week out there.
Right.
I mean, that has to impact the, the company maybe.
And if I'm there, where was the damage?
We read it like I sat there and read it with you, but I also read something else that their
sales are down in the shitter.
Yeah.
So why are their sales down?
So there's two reasons.
Yes, there may have been some damage on a part of the building, but overall they're
from what I understood sitting there talking to the bartender is that they're trying to
collectively affect their sign out.
If you check on Instagram right now, there are one, it was out there, Yellowstone, Houston,
Instagram.
They said that we are collaborating our resources so that we can focus all of our sales from
one point as a suppose they're basically shutting down all the peripheral shops and relocating
in one spot.
It had, I don't, it didn't have anything to do with the storm.
I think that that's just bullshit.
The cost cutting is what they're doing.
Yeah.
I think that because I didn't see it, where was the storm damage?
I was there.
It was the outhouse.
I have no idea.
I mean, I would, that's what it did say though.
I was like, if there was storm damage, I was there after every storm.
Cause I went there for the derecho and I went there for hurricane burl.
I saw both of them.
There was no storm damage unless they're talking about another location.
They were talking about their main, uh, visitation center.
Is that where you were at?
Yes.
I don't know.
I don't know either, but I do know their main visitation center had a bunch of drags.
Drag.
When you were there?
No, I didn't go on that day.
Oh yeah.
I got the light out of that.
I got the light.
What would you have done if you walked up and you just saw that?
Would you be like, I would have left.
You would have made a reel, posted it.
I don't know.
In retrospect, I may have.
Well, going back to the whole, when did the, let me change it.
The radical trans movement.
When did that come to be?
Was that after Biden?
They were emboldened.
Probably.
Yeah.
It had to be Biden.
It had to be after Biden.
Well, I mean, then they went to the white house, right?
And then they hung, they hung trans flags at the same level of the United States flag,
which you never do.
When was the whole Riley Gaines swimming controversy?
Leah Thomas.
Yes.
When was that?
During Biden.
It's all during Biden.
It was.
Okay.
I'm pretty sure.
Yeah.
It's the radical, the radical trans movement that I find problematic, mainly around the
children.
I don't give a shit.
Yeah.
Do whatever.
Just don't influence the kids.
But once the kids came into be and the schools started getting...
Nailed it.
2013, Colorado Civil Rights Division ruled in favor of transgender students' rights to
use the girls' bathroom.
That's I think where it crossed the line.
There were...
Okay.
So what, was that Obama?
Yes.
So there was, yes, there was some movement back then.
Because if you remember, Target allowed men to go into the women's bathrooms.
So right around that time...
Look, man, Obama fucked us up.
He implemented a lot of bullshit rules and all these people...
Obama.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
This crazy shit, dude.
He is not the fucking God.
You know?
No.
And I think they see that now.
He put us on a path of...
He put us on...
No, no, not a path.
He put the left on path of...
He put us, this country, on the path to division where we are today.
I put 100% of the start of this division and polarization on Barack Obama.
I agree with that.
Because he even said, I don't know if it was him or his wife, husband, said, we need to
radically...
I can't remember the word, radically transform this country, America.
Yep.
Who said that?
Michael or Obama?
One of the two, yes.
I can't remember who exactly said that.
I think...
I don't.
One of the two said it.
It was Obama.
Well, they're both Obama.
I mean, sorry.
I know they are.
Barack.
It was Barack.
Yes.
Fundamentally transform the nation.
So it was Barack.
Yeah.
And we're not on board with that, Obama.
It was during the Bill O'Reilly interview with President Barack Obama.
And we have since voted that down.
How about that?
Well, you know what?
That's kind of a Debbie Downer, this whole trance thing.
And look, there's people out there that are confused.
And I get it.
And that's why we have psychiatrists and psychologists out there, is to help these people.
Because look, there are gays out there.
And I don't disrespect gays.
If you want to do your thing, do your thing.
But you know, just I don't need to know it.
My kids don't need to know it.
You didn't have a kid because you're gay.
So don't instill your gay shit on my kid.
I don't reread my kid.
Don't read my kid books.
You want to be gay, be gay, stay in your gay lane.
And I'm in my heterosexual lane with my monogamous family.
And we're going to be swinging over here.
Hey, gay.
I love you.
Here's some pizza.
You know, just pizza.
Oh yeah, that's kind of that was not that.
Well, that's the I'm not a P Diddy pizza moment there.
I was just it's the what is it?
The olive branch is pizza nowadays.
Right.
Lord, it just got ugly.
You know, they even what this whole P Diddy thing is kind of like shuffled under the rug
right now.
It is.
He's still in prison.
I don't think it's shuffled under the rug.
It's it's I would say it's it's starting to fester.
Well, I think I think in the in the news cycle, it has been under the rug.
I haven't seen anything.
Well, I don't really like going anywhere.
No, this is festering.
I don't I don't watch much news.
I watch one news program a day.
But and I try to stay away from the news as much as I can.
So I don't know if it's the media that has just kind of dropped it because of this whole
election thing or what?
I don't know.
But it's not it definitely.
He's still in prison, right?
Oh, yeah, he's in prison.
And apparently he's trying to manipulate the situation by telling family members to silence.
You know, he's telling them to silence critics or something like that.
So I understood.
I saw somewhere that Pete Diddy's mom was instrumental in some of this stuff.
Oh, God, what a mess.
So Sean Puffy comes also known as Diddy is under investigation by federal authorities
has been charged with a racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking.
So you don't have an example.
What is Eminem, his daughter?
So she has some memes out there where she was with a friend at one of P Diddy's party
and it was underage.
Yeah.
And it was Kanye West and P Diddy ripping her shirt off neat.
Not but not Eminem's daughter, her friend, Eminem's daughter.
Yeah, both.
Oh, her Eminem, Mr. Tough Talker himself is okay with that.
I haven't heard him speak.
There's a picture of this out there.
It was her, her saying it.
She was interviewing and she was explaining that she had her phone out and she was about
to call for a ride home and her friend, the producer or whatever was with her and they
were like, what are we doing with your phone?
Let me get that phone.
They took the phone away from her and put the phone on the countertop, 10 feet away,
whatever it is.
And they gave her drinks and they were like, force it.
No, drink up, drink up.
And her friend drank the drink and she was like, I am not drinking that drink.
And her friend, Kohli passed out.
And both those both Kanye and P Diddy were all over her and she was describing like,
oh shit, this is going to happen and I'm not drinking this.
So I'm not going to pass out, but they are literally ripping my shirt off right now.
And it's like, you know, wow.
I didn't see the conclusion of that interview.
When did this come out?
Like recently or hold on a second.
Let me look.
I would think that would, that would why, why?
Especially if she's underage.
Why would you?
Well, regardless, uh, underage makes it worse, but even though of age woman, you don't do
that to her.
Geez.
Eminem.
All sorts of shit.
Do that first one.
Eminem daughter reacts to sleeping with Diddy.
He hands me a drink.
Kanye hands Lauren a drink and we're like, that's weird.
Why are they serving us?
There was something not right.
I was 19 years old.
Diddy kept looking at me and Kanye kept looking at Lauren and like they were exchanging glances
and I'm like, they're like watching me strangely.
Immediately.
I'm like, there's something in this drink.
So I reach for my phone and I start to type and Kanye takes the phone out of my hand and
he's like, who are you texting?
Like you don't need to text anyone.
Like we're having a party.
And I was like, okay.
And he like puts it on one of the speakers and I'm like, now what do I do?
And I see my manager take a sip and I'm like two sips and I watch her face flush at a hundred
percent.
I just knew that the drinks were all laced with something.
I realized that I'm in the studio with Diddy and Kanye.
They're coming towards me more and they're trying to like take my clothes off.
They have like ripped my shirt off.
And I'm like almost fully exposed.
These two predators who are sexually assaulting me.
Sleeve from sexual morality.
Ooh.
What?
I don't know if that was.
Yeah.
What was that?
Sleeve from sexual morality.
So there you go.
That was, that was Eminem's daughter.
She didn't seem upset about it though.
Well, there's more of that interview that wasn't on there where she was weepy.
Well, actually she looked like she was getting upset at the end of that.
Maybe at the end, but at the beginning it didn't seem that way to me anyway.
She's clearly upset because when it goes further on in the interview, she says, you know what?
I reached a point where like nobody is coming to save me.
No, hell no.
These guys are going to take me.
Right.
And I don't know what the end result was because I never, you never got to see the end of it
because it gets, it's getting cut off.
Well, the title was Sex with Diddy.
Yeah.
Man, look, there's, there's bad actors, bad people out there, man.
And they're right in front of us and it's, it's fucked up.
And you know, a lot of them have to do with our, our politicians out there that are allowing
320,000 young immigrants that just got lost in the, the, the, the path getting into the
country.
Have we, have we heard anything from Trump on if he's trying to resolve that?
Is he appointing someone to help?
I am sure Tom Holm is going to beat the shit out of this.
Resolve what?
Sorry.
What?
Well, try to find these 300,000 missing children.
That's a good question.
I haven't heard that address.
You're right.
Homan.
Yeah.
Homan.
Homan's been assigned to, to shut down the border and deport.
Correct.
But I don't know about these find.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, they do say flat out, but you know, dude, he's going to address a bunch of
stuff, man.
He's, he's, he's, he's amped up.
He is amped up.
And he's like tired because they have beat down our, our border patrol.
They've beat down ice, you know, calling them fascist, racist, and everything negative that
you can think about.
It's just, it's horrible.
Why would you think those guys?
And then you have these people that are getting murdered.
And I'm like, I don't think all immigrants are bad.
In fact, I think the majority of immigrants are bad at all.
Definitely not a matter of them being good or bad.
It's a matter of them entering through the country the right way.
You go through a port of entry and you sign up.
You sign in the book and you've got to be held accountable.
And if it requires you to exit the country and come back at a later date, then so be
it.
That's what you got to do.
But you got people all over the planet that want to come in here and they got to do it
the right way.
We've had millions and millions and millions of immigrants do it the right way.
Of course.
And they're the ones particularly upset about the illegal immigration.
Correct.
Because they followed the rules.
They did it correctly.
And you know what?
I read an interesting article about the border patrol and ICE.
Apparently their morale is soaring right now.
Right now that Holman is going to take charge in January.
They'll be able to do their job.
They're going to be able to go after the bad guys is what they said.
And a whole bunch of ex-military, ex-police, ex-ICE, ex-border patrol, the people that
retired are they coming back?
They're willing to come out of the woodwork in a volunteer capacity to actually assist
his effort.
I love it.
Gotcha.
Yeah.
You know, it's like, I want things to be kind of nice.
I think we want things to go back to a point where we felt that we were safer.
Right.
You know, it's like, I mean, when was the last time that we felt like, you know, the
border was shut down?
You know, I remember living in El Paso, Texas.
My dad, we moved from New Jersey.
We went down to El Paso, to Fort Bliss, and that was in the eighties.
And when we were right there smack dab on the border, you know, things were not like
that.
That was back then.
We were able to go to cross the international war as bridge and we can go shop around there.
Granted, you know, you had a lot of these kids peddling stuff for you to buy cheek,
like cheek, cheek, cheek, cheek, cheek.
You can call it cheek.
And it's, you know, in there, you know, the chiclets.
Yeah.
But it's just, you know, and at nighttime it got worse.
They become a little bit more aggressive.
It's like, you know, buy my cheek, cheek, cheek, cheek.
And then they, they, if you don't buy it from them, they fricking whip out a hair, a hair
spray and a lighter and they fricking torture ass.
It's kind of crazy.
That is crazy.
But that was in the eighties.
She was just weird in the eighties, man.
Well, it was quite a bit different.
Of course, I think we were all in middle school or high school at some point during the eighties.
And I think we all went to, you know, the school dance and stuff like that.
Right.
Oh yeah.
Love was in the air.
Oh my God.
You talk about the eighties dogs.
Love was in the air.
And I remember everybody was happy.
I remember specifically the middle middle school.
We would, uh, there you go.
Love was in the air.
Do you remember who this was?
This is the Bengals.
Were you in middle school, Jeff?
Not on this.
No, this was, I was at college when this came out.
So who's the singer of this by the way?
This is Susanna Hoffs.
She's hot.
Smoking hot.
She says today too.
I know.
She really is.
Is this an eighties?
This is late eighties.
If it is, this is crazy, man.
Hey, what were you saying?
Middle school?
Well, I was saying middle school and you'd hear the, uh, the either, either the Commodores
or the late, the Lionel Richie, uh, still or endless love or whatever it was back then.
And you'd get all nervous.
You look at the girl that you have, you know, the hots for, and you'd walk over and ask
her to dance.
And you're at arm's length and you basically drill a hole in the floor, just going around
in the circle.
Oh yeah.
And you had your hands on the hips.
Oh yeah.
For me, it was air supply.
Yeah.
Oh, endless love.
Yeah, this is one of them.
Here it is.
Endless love.
What year is this?
This is the eighties.
I don't know.
So I, I, look at that hair.
I would sing the shit out of this for karaoke.
Lionel Richie, he doesn't even look, he doesn't look normal.
All right.
These are called the, the gay hits of the eighties.
I'm not really 100% sure.
I'm going to skip to the little end here.
Sorry.
We're enamored by the video of there's lots of hair in extremely hairy.
I wonder if their hair would like mesh together.
I don't like old, like Velcro.
Yeah.
And they try to pull their hair apart.
Interesting.
How about air supply?
Was that, was that available in the eighties?
Oh yeah.
Oh shit.
It was, yeah.
Like making love out of nothing at all.
Are you kidding me?
That song was, uh, Oh, this is all out of love.
This is a great one too.
She's man.
These are, I mean, what the fuck are these planning on this?
These were a hundred percent.
Oh, look at those nails.
He totally, he's playing the guitar upside down.
Did you notice that he's playing the guitar upside down?
He's left handed.
Yes.
Cause left handed people are cool.
Hey, but, but this is middle school, right?
Oh yeah.
100%.
This was middle school for me.
I think so.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
Well, you know what?
One of the, my eighties, Oh my God, where they go is, uh, is the, there was a Madonna
Marana song.
What is that?
Madonna Marana.
Oh, it's crazy for you.
That's Papa.
No breach.
I'm crazy for you.
You're going to have to, this is actually a really good song.
This was like 1987.
I think.
This is a vision quest from vision quest.
Yes.
I was, I think 16 when this came out.
What was the story of vision question?
He was a wrestler and he had an older woman that he liked.
Yeah.
He had, it was like a Mrs. Robinson type of thing.
Oh, it was like me and Mrs. Jones.
It was still like Matt Gates and that 17 year old.
He's the other way around.
Yes.
Oh, right.
Right.
Oh, because if it's a man, it's okay, dude, I had the biggest hot.
I, I had the hots for Madonna.
Like you would not believe.
I was back before she was not slobbing.
She was cute back then.
She was so hot.
She got a pretty, pretty gnarly looking.
She totally did.
Are we doing a, you want to do a top 10?
Are we going to do top 10?
Let's do a top 10 of eighties love songs.
Let's see where that goes.
See if he can find that.
All right.
Well, and let's just go 10 to one and, and, and we'll, we'll bring out our listeners,
we'll especially the guys they'll tear up and they remember that girl that got away
in fourth grade.
All right.
So I'd like to see if I can't find that, that says, here we go.
The 20th 20th grade ranked.
Well, they'll go from, oh, yeah.
Okay.
We'll go down to one of those articles like that one, right?
The 20 greatest love song ranked ranked.
I see Lionel.
I see wham.
Okay.
That don't go up.
Fat Larry's band.
I don't believe that.
What is that?
Okay.
Really?
Fat Larry's band.
Zoom.
Of all time eighties love songs.
Are you kidding me?
Number 20?
I've never heard this.
I'm going to go to the middle real quick.
Look at that suit.
Oh, shut up.
Look at that drummer, man.
This is a DI plug right there.
I don't know what's going on.
Crazy for you.
That's 19.
That's good.
That's number 19.
She was hot.
Stevie Wonder.
I disagree with this.
Not a fan of this song.
It's a good song.
I know.
It's like a castle.
Hold on.
Just wait.
He'll start singing.
Give Jeff a minute here.
I've heard this song before.
No, I know, but you're wanting to sing.
I can see it bubbling.
Your head's bobbing.
Yep.
It is.
All right, let's go to the next one.
Why is he swaying back and forth?
We remember this one.
Oh, yeah.
This is another one.
Oh, good one.
Here's the problem, driving me nuts.
Oh, what was that?
Very feminine sounding.
Oh, you've got multiple things going on here.
This is another high school day song.
Is this a love song?
Keep on loving you.
This song was popular when I lived in Germany.
I retract.
It was a stupid question.
This was a high school dance song for me.
I've never seen the video ever.
Well, who has?
Look at that TV.
Full of 13 inch color.
A bunch of never bled.
Yeah, well, we're going to get...
She's young?
All right, so you're the best thing...
That's what they say.
Have you heard this?
You're making me seem like I don't know this one.
You're the best thing by the style.
Little jazzy.
What a shitty list.
We got two in the top 20 that do not make sense at all.
The power of love.
Oh, I've never heard of this one either.
What's going on?
That's definitely from the 80s.
Released in 85, the power of love was the first ever million seller by a female soloist.
I've never even heard of it.
The power of love was also sung by Orson Why.
Yes, Brandigan, Huey Lewis.
And Celine Dion also sang it.
And Huey Lewis.
You'll know this song.
Here we go.
Maybe.
It's a very long intro.
Yes, it is.
Yes, kind of painful.
I'm about to...
The whispers in the morning.
Oh, this is the original of Celine Dion.
Air Supply also did it.
Oh, she's quite...
God, I'm not sure I like her version.
Big old front teeth, huh?
She eats a lot of carrots.
I don't think I like her version already.
Interesting.
So why wouldn't they give it to Celine Dion?
She did a first, I guess.
That's a little bit too much.
All right, so this one is Madness.
Number 14.
It must be Love.
I disagree with this one.
Do you know it?
No.
I don't even know it.
What's going on here?
What the hell?
I hate that we...
I hate when we stumble on these lists that suck.
This is a good one.
You get me.
Time after time.
Cindy Lopman.
That's a long intro as well.
That's a good one.
Yeah, this one was a class one.
This reminds me when I lived in Jersey.
Yeah, this is classic.
Yeah, I was in high school.
This was late 80s, wasn't it?
Mid-80s, maybe?
Yeah, I think so.
Mid-80s, maybe?
Yeah, mid-80s for sure.
Somewhere in there.
That's back when she was hanging out with all those professional wrestlers.
Lou Albano.
Yeah.
Captain Lou.
That's funny.
And then we've already heard this one.
Eternal Flame.
Great song.
Yeah.
She needs to be nude.
Whoa.
Is there a nude version?
Can you search nude?
I didn't realize there was a nude version.
Eternal Flame.
All right, we did Eleven, Endless Love.
We did that one already.
Soft Cell?
No.
See, I can't do this.
This is a total injustice to 80s love songs is what's happening right now.
Oh, that's one Spandale Ballet.
You know this one.
True.
So I remember.
Great song.
I remember a tribute band.
I went to a concert.
This was in the Dependent Youth Activity Center.
I think Sean, pause that for a second.
Jeff, what are you saying?
I sound just like him.
Yeah, you do.
Go ahead.
What were you?
No, I'm good.
I'm just going to go.
We'll try again.
So we were in the Dependent Youth Activity Center in Fort Monmouth, New Jersey, and they
had some sort of band that was playing in there.
We had like 15 kids in there.
All of them are between 15 and 13 to 18, somewhere in there, because we're realtor kids, brats.
And they had a little two or three person band, and it was total 80 retro with the little
Casio piano that was out there, electric drum, and they completely knocked this one out.
I remember listening to this.
Oh, dude, it was awesome.
They were really good at it.
Wow.
You know, when you were singing that, Jeff, I thought I imagined you getting into like
a really cold pool.
And you're like, huh, huh, huh, huh.
This is a classic.
This is one of her first hits.
Amazing.
This is a remake.
Did you know that?
Whitney Houston.
Marilyn McCue and Bill Davis Jr. sang it in 78.
78.
Well, then she remade it in the 80s.
Oh, God.
Her version is amazing.
All right.
Well, the next one, I think, is a what says hello by Lionel Richie.
Hello.
That's where the late the blind lady makes the clay bust of Lionel Richie.
And it is the most horrendous looking thing.
Oh, it's like a train wreck.
Well, it's just his face is just and that was supposed to be good.
I just called to let you know.
Yes.
That's a good song.
Good song.
I think the blind lady's attractive.
But what she's what she's a really shitty bust.
I think I think it is so mean, Jeff.
Yeah.
Well, are you a was this like a you potterist?
I am a potterist.
Yes.
This is a story happening.
She's blind.
I can see it.
I remember I dated my first Asian chick with this song.
We're going to the movie theater with her.
Oh, why?
She doesn't have like a walking stick.
She's blind.
She's so blind.
No, she pulled it out.
Oh, dude.
So she's blind.
He's creeping up on her.
Totally stalking her.
Hi, my name is Lionel.
And I'm hot.
I know what I look like.
Go back and look at all the end and look at the.
Oh, no.
Too late.
You want to see the awful bust.
I think it's bad.
All right.
So this is the next one.
Number six.
I have Brian Adams here.
Let's skip it down here.
This is late eighties.
Like I was in college.
This is a good one.
So this come out on a karate kid or something.
No, this was a night in heaven.
There's the album.
Was this the he also sang one for the Robin Hood with Kevin Castor.
I don't know if that's this one, though.
The song was inspired by the journeys faithfully, by the way, which I didn't know.
Well, I was going to say if there's no journey on here, this is a bad list because I was going
to go back and say better be in the top five.
Yeah, there's a couple of their ballads that need to be on here.
Seriously, with or without.
I enjoy this is a great song, but I don't consider this a love song at all.
It's a great song, though.
It's an OK song.
It's a great song.
I don't know.
I love this best song ever.
No, no, I disagree to get you would give it a nine point nine.
All right, moving on number four.
That's loud.
That's awful.
All right.
Number four.
This is a good one.
It's a good one.
Oh, wow.
He's got the widows peak working.
Oh, he totally does.
Well, I mean, might as well enjoy.
You got nothing else now.
Yeah, he's not looking good right now either.
He's not.
Well, I mean, he's like what?
Ninety.
No, he's like 70.
Really?
He's not as old as you think he is.
He is super talented, though, man.
His voice is so unique.
He looks like a nerd, but he is extremely talented.
And he wasn't even really supposed to be the singer.
He's singing.
Yeah, he could sing.
The drummer.
But he was the drummer from Genesis.
Genesis, yeah.
And 25, 60.
Yeah, very talented.
Very talented.
And Peter Sintera was actually the singer.
He was the drummer in Chicago.
No, no, no.
That's Chicago.
Yeah.
He was a drummer of Genesis.
Genesis.
Was he?
What was he doing that before?
That's nothing.
Oh, I thought he was.
Peter Sintera is incredible.
Yeah, Peter Sintera is.
I don't think he was in Chicago.
I'm not a fan of this song.
I want to know what love is.
I just spoiled it.
I was.
I enjoyed it.
It was a good song.
Kind of skipped down here.
It's a good song.
That's a love song, and it's a good one.
It is a love song.
I just was.
I never was a fan of it.
We saw that.
We saw the cover band play this.
This one's kind of a weird one.
I wouldn't expect this to be on the list.
First off, I love ABBA, but was this the eighties?
It must have been 1980 when this came out.
Really?
As we followed the Colorado together, listening to it.
Yes, we did.
And you looked at ceramic dicks.
You know what?
You would have been doing it too if you had your oxygen machine.
Yeah, seriously.
Bring that machine up there and you'll see.
It was plasterized dicks is what it was.
Whatever.
I have a picture.
Well, this is actually kind of a fun song.
It's a great song.
I love ABBA.
I really do.
There's got to be a Euro style list here.
Here's the number one.
Number one, really?
This is a good song.
It is, but dude, Journey of the Wild.
Not anywhere in there.
Even Air Supply wasn't in there.
I mean, get out of here.
Lady in Red?
When did that come out?
Chris Eisberg?
No, that was Chris de Burgh.
Oh yeah.
Chris de Burgh.
Yeah.
Oh, Chris Isaac.
Chris Isaac.
That was the 90s.
That wasn't really a love song either.
They for all I've done, the beat.
I got to tell you, man, though, George Michael, I'm so, he's one of those people like Whitney
Houston, you know, her voice is gone.
She should have been on there.
You know, she was, oh yeah, she was, but it wasn't really for the song that should have
been on there for, you know, I will always love you from the bodyguard.
You know, that was the early nineties.
That was 89.
That was the early nineties.
Yeah.
I don't remember.
But George Michael, he's like one of the first white males to win the soul album of the year.
He was incredible.
Yeah.
You know, and plus what's kind of a strange factor.
Are you talking about the Listen Without Prejudice album?
I don't recall what album it was.
I mean, he's got a litany of fantastic songs and he's got such a style that not a whole
lot of people can reproduce.
For anybody who has not listened to the Listen Without Prejudice George Michael album, you
are missing out.
There's a couple of documentaries out there about him.
I recommend, I think one may be on Netflix, the other or Amazon.
I recommend watching.
They both basically tell the same story, but I recommend watching it.
It goes from when they were kids, he was a Ridgely, something Ridgely all the way up
until he dies.
Right?
Wow.
Another factoid about George Michael's is he struggled with his weight.
He was a fatty.
Oh yeah.
They showed pictures of when he was a teenager and they were just getting the start and he
looked pudgy.
Yeah.
He had to go on diets all the time.
It's like he would, he would like starve himself.
I didn't know exactly what he did.
Maybe it was a bunch of blow.
I don't know.
But you know, but he would like starve himself.
He would, he would lose a tremendous amount of weight.
He would go on tour and you know, after the tour, you know, he would fricking get all
plumpy again and I don't give a shit.
It's not my business.
So this is a stupid question.
What is his last name?
Is it Michael?
No, it's like it's some Greek name.
No, I'm just saying, is it Michael or Michaels?
George Michael.
I thought it was, yeah, Michael.
And he created this persona.
No, no, no, no.
Georgios, Caracos, Penelope.
Yeah.
Good Lord.
He's Greek.
And he created this persona because he was gay.
Right.
But when he started, he didn't know how to tell anybody that.
So he created this persona to be someone else.
Basically.
Okay.
And he created that whole persona.
But it was Michael, not Michaels.
Correct.
Okay.
I just wanted to clarify.
I recommend watching that.
If you're a fan of his, watch the documentaries.
It's an, you know, I can't remember.
It's an episode, two episodes or something like that.
It's fascinating.
Hold on.
Here we go.
This is how to...
Pronounsnames.com.
George Caracos, Panayiotou.
That's what I thought.
George Caracos, Panayiotou.
That is the stupidest thing.
Let's just go with George Michael.
Yeah.
You know what?
I am totally just, you know, I'm done.
So, so to what I'm saying, I'm done.
I'm done.
So, so to what we should have done prior to this is we should have like got anybody, everybody
in the mood, you know, try to transfer yourself into the eighties.
Imagine yourself teleported back in time, fully immersing into the decades, culture,
fashion, technology.
That's back when we got the next drink up.
Do what?
Sorry.
Jeff pulled up.
I heard the jingle jingle of the Garrison Brothers bottle right here.
So, you just spilled the beans here.
Well, we need to talk about it.
So I'm going to pull it up here.
Hold on a second.
Hey, why don't we pause?
What are you doing?
Oh, because I have to pee.
Good Lord Almighty man.
What's going on over there?
I don't know.
You almost knocked my bottle over.
All right.
So as we said, we got the the Garrison Brothers cowboy.
This was a total wine purchase.
We got the call.
It was like, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, attention, attention, attention to it's
like us podcast attention, attention, come and get it.
So we were like, we got it.
And you know what?
It was expensive as shit.
Yeah, it was like 300 bucks.
Most expensive bottle we have ever purchased.
It was two hundred and sixty nine dollars with tax.
Yeah, with three hundred bucks.
So the it it's hazmat, it's one hundred and forty point two proof.
So you know, that's in my wheelhouse.
I mean, I love it.
I think it's perfect.
I could drink this every single day.
You know, just one one ounce per day.
The the the the hue of this, it looks like oil sitting in there like motor oil.
It is so dark.
Yeah.
Well, this is man, it is so good.
This is what the the bottom of the barrel.
So if you people say, hey, the bottom of the barrel, this is the bottom of the barrel.
This was pulled out.
This is after the devil's cut and angel's cut been all ripped out of that thing.
This is what they pour out.
It's hazmat.
It's super strong.
It's very oaky.
You know, it's it's it's literally what's been sitting in there and it's super strong
and it's got such a fan.
I think it's a fantastic.
It's bitter.
OK, I don't pick up any bitterness.
No, it's to me.
It's bitter.
It's bitter with with with carbon like the burning.
You can think you could taste the lumber yard in there.
You know, well, I know.
I know when I first started, I think you said there's a strong brown sugar on the nose.
I definitely pick up brown sugar on the nose.
Honey, ground cloves, kill caramel, chili powder.
Do you know?
Do you guys know how long it's been aged?
Twenty eighteen is when it was barreled.
That's right.
Six years, six years.
But in Texas.
Yeah.
And in Texas is 10 years elsewhere.
So more than 10 years.
So most people most people will tell you that when you first put this in your in your mouth
and your taste buds, it it's the initial heat, it warms like plums, rhubarb, cocoa powder,
cherry juice, roasted pecans, white chocolate and a clove honey.
And after I say that, I kind of start to taste it.
And it's amazing how they can do that.
And we we pulled, of course, you know, Paul, Jeff and I spent hours sampling this so that
we can come up with all these these notes.
I wrote down I wrote down a few things like the brown sugar on the nose.
I also picked up a lot of the taste on the palate.
Lipton ice tea bags in the actual bags.
If you smelled those right like straight, straight or just the sip of it.
That's what I got out of it as well, along with the the dark fruits.
So it's saying tobacco leaves.
That's probably what it is.
But it was but it was more like I said, more of the Lipton tea flavor to me.
So the the taste, according to a million people, the milk duds, licorice, mom's chocolate,
Satan pie, Satan pie.
I just said that the fuck the hell s'mores on a toasted cinnamon graham crackers, scorched
honey and sweet molasses.
Paul nailed it.
I did.
I said molasses.
I did.
Yeah, I have molasses downstairs.
I pulled up.
We could we could shoot the finish.
Cinnamon Twizzlers, burnt marshmallows, Werther's, chewy caramels, red hots and apple cider,
tobacco leaves, tawny port, toffee pecans and chocolate fudge.
I agree with that.
There's nothing to I mean, specifically the Werther's chewy caramels is kind of or
cinnamon Twizzlers.
I could pick up burnt marshmallow.
Anyway, this is outstanding.
I you so if I could just make a meat, okay, you can throw out all sorts of crazy descriptions
and all the all the kind of stuff.
But the reality is you cannot have a bourbon is that has more richness than this one.
This is the most rich bourbon I have ever tasted.
Rich depth.
It is.
It is literally an explosion of flavors.
I know you're both enamored with my comment.
What is so this came in a yes.
This is by far the richest, but it's extremely rich, extremely rich.
And this came in an outstanding box.
Oh, yeah.
They went all out.
I mean, 300 bucks.
Hell, yeah.
This is the 10th anniversary.
They only made 10,000 bottles of it.
And we're lucky enough to get one.
That's nationwide.
We're lucky enough to get one of them in the box is nice.
And it came with a little booklet.
Oh, yeah.
Tells about a metal and a metal as well.
So tell us what's in the booklet.
Well, it says it's it is uncut.
So basically it's barrel proof.
You they pulled it right out and put it in the put it in the bottle.
It's unfiltered.
It says if you hold the bottle up to the light, you'll see drifts of barrel wood and charcoal
floating in it.
Nice.
That's what we see.
That says trust that there's nothing bad there.
That's what we that's what we taste.
Yes.
Quite the contrary.
We left everything good in it.
If the wafting charcoal or what bothers you, we recommend decanting the bourbon like you
would a vintage wine.
No shit.
Well, maybe maybe.
I mean, we then in theory, we could all have a different taste of this, depending on what's
what's floating in it, what's floating, what's floating in our glass.
Right.
That is amazing.
Uncut, unfiltered.
So I'm reading here also it's bottled out of cast strength.
Sixty seven point four proof percent.
ABP knows the Texas heat has really turbocharged the aging process on this one.
How many rich barrel notes I was must have been a previous year because this is seventy
point one now.
You're absolutely right.
That's from January twenty twenty three.
Suck it.
There may not be a whole lot of reviews on this was just released.
Just really we've had it for what, three weeks?
Yep.
And who was I talking to when I was down at Still Austin, I was talking to a guy who was
on the tour with us that we picked up the cowboy and he was extremely excited.
He said that he saw news stories that when they release this, they release it to distillery
first.
And if you ever been to Garrison, you go way down this country road to get to it.
He said there were cars on the news story backed all the way down that road to the main
highway there.
Damn.
Just to get a bottle of just to get this.
Yes.
That's great.
Just to get this.
It's outstanding.
It's in a class of its own.
It really is.
I mean, I've had hazmat before and I love all of them.
This one's the thickest and chewiest.
You know, it's it's definitely like they said, you have to can't it.
And it's it's it's a.
It's an acquired taste.
You know, I mean, it's an acquired shoe because they really does have chunks of wood in there.
I mean, if you look at the ship floating there, it's stuff you'd find, you know, at the bottom
of a barrel.
Well, the finish on this is extremely long as well.
Oh, yeah.
Compare this.
Well, you really can't.
But the is there specs of black shit in my in my drink?
Yeah, that's wood and charcoal wood.
That's fucking crazy.
Yes, it's fiber.
It'll make you regular.
Well before we we finish up with this garrison brothers and we give it a score, I want to
give a shout out to eighteen forty five distillery in Lowe crossing, Texas.
Thank you for the coasters provided Mr. Ben.
You are the man.
We're going to get to specs and he was like, hey, you gave us these coasters.
Jeff procured them.
He's such a trooper.
They send them all over the place to do all the crazy tastings and stuff.
We got to get Ben on here and just have been as in bed.
He doesn't have to represent eighteen forty five.
He can just be bad.
Just been the only one I'm thinking of.
OK, so let's get up to.
Does this say anything on the box that we need to?
The anniversary that we need to highlight.
Yeah, right on the back, right in the middle somewhere.
There's some stuff that box is amazing, by the way.
It is.
It's pretty.
It says Cowboy Bourbon is one of the most highly coveted bourbon whiskies in America.
And we have it.
Yeah.
Barrel is our hand selected by our master distiller, Donis Todd.
And we've met him.
He's a very nice guy.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh.
It says, and then, and then it stashed away in our barrel.
So he goes out there and taste these and go, OK, this is.
fore cowboy.
And then he stashes these in our barrel barns for at least eight years to soak in even more
flavor and texture.
The liquid is bottled at cast strength, uncut and unfiltered, like we just said.
in Texas. Oh, he takes it to a different building. That says the nectar.
Oh, I was like, you are here, right? I know. I know. I'm starting to fade here. I'm starting
to fade. Yes. Anyway, I would give this this this is above everything we else have. So
I think has that needs to be a category. And I'm going to give this a nine. Yeah, easily.
If not higher than that, we don't have any others. I really don't have much to compare
it to. Well, we're going to we're going to whip out a few. We've got we've got we've
got a couple out there and we got to bring in we're bringing in from our review over
at Iron Root. We've got the E-Core. We got the I-Core. I-Chore. I-Chore. Do I pull that
up? It's a chore. It's I-Core. That's another hazmat. Well, shout out to the Garrison brothers.
Thank you for the product. What do you rate this? Yeah, I gotta go with a nine. I mean,
we've never had a nine before in this category for sure. We don't have a category of its
own. We don't have anything in this category. Right. So I mean, shit. Nine, two. I have
like a bunch of my glass. I know once I drink it, I'm done. Did you did you pour again?
I'm sorry. What was that? Did you did he pour again? I didn't see it. Is that a sentence?
No, this stuff was it impacted me? Look at him, Paul. He poured again. We're all going
to be fucking schnockered after this one. Sean poured us a good look like more two ounces.
I don't know if it was, but it was two in a bunch. That 140. We're fucked. I told my
wife, I was like, yeah, I'm gonna be kind of fucked up when I come to bed. Just be warned.
This is good shit, man. Second half of the podcast. Thank you, boys. Oh, that was good.
This is delicious. Very hearty. If you can get a, even if you're just a tasting somewhere,
