WEBVTT

00:00:05.929 --> 00:00:08.789
Boom. Oh, wow. Tuesday? Tuesday. Check, check,

00:00:08.830 --> 00:00:12.630
one, two. Today was my first day of work for

00:00:12.630 --> 00:00:15.330
the new school year. Hey, exciting. How'd that

00:00:15.330 --> 00:00:19.250
go? It was a five -hour meeting, so it was boring.

00:00:19.489 --> 00:00:21.929
No kids, that's right. Yeah, no kids. Five hours,

00:00:22.010 --> 00:00:25.250
huh? Yeah. It was eight. Did they feed you? Yeah,

00:00:25.350 --> 00:00:28.449
Chick -fil -A. They really did. They pumped you

00:00:28.449 --> 00:00:31.690
up with a bunch of poison. No, it was good stuff.

00:00:31.710 --> 00:00:33.270
I bet it was tasty. Chick -fil -A is not poison.

00:00:33.979 --> 00:00:36.399
I disagree. A bunch of fake stuff. Actually,

00:00:36.439 --> 00:00:38.439
there's two fake things in there. There's a real

00:00:38.439 --> 00:00:41.619
chicken in there. Somewhere. No. If you look

00:00:41.619 --> 00:00:42.859
at all the ingredients, all of them are natural

00:00:42.859 --> 00:00:44.600
except for two. Bill Gates' own chickens just

00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:49.219
jacked with vaccines. I disagree. No. It may,

00:00:49.259 --> 00:00:50.880
may not. I don't know. We'll never know. I don't

00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:51.939
think there's anything wrong with Chick -fil

00:00:51.939 --> 00:00:54.539
-A. Unless you have it every day. No, every time

00:00:54.539 --> 00:00:55.960
I've gone there, I enjoyed it. There's nothing

00:00:55.960 --> 00:00:59.909
wrong, wrong with it as far as tastes go. I don't

00:00:59.909 --> 00:01:01.850
know if, you know, when you kind of gravitate

00:01:01.850 --> 00:01:03.469
towards healthy food, I don't know if that's

00:01:03.469 --> 00:01:05.010
the right choice. Well, you get to grill stuff.

00:01:06.069 --> 00:01:09.069
God, it doesn't matter what you do. Because if

00:01:09.069 --> 00:01:11.269
you grill it, then you're like, oh, well, the

00:01:11.269 --> 00:01:14.370
bird marks are cancerous. It's carcinogenic.

00:01:15.150 --> 00:01:19.269
You can't freaking win. You know? Oh, the vinegar's

00:01:19.269 --> 00:01:21.930
bad. The salt's bad. It's just like, man, where

00:01:21.930 --> 00:01:24.250
do you just stick a freaking fork in it? Well,

00:01:24.250 --> 00:01:26.150
for some people, the gluten's bad. You know,

00:01:26.230 --> 00:01:29.290
whatever. All right, so it says 55 ingredients

00:01:29.290 --> 00:01:30.989
in the Chick -fil -A sandwich, but the reality

00:01:30.989 --> 00:01:34.269
is that's in every fast food sandwich. Well,

00:01:34.329 --> 00:01:36.269
I mean, look at it. It's the bun. It's half of

00:01:36.269 --> 00:01:39.109
it. It's chicken breast, salt, MSG, sugar, spices.

00:01:39.290 --> 00:01:41.569
There's probably more spices than the 55, right?

00:01:41.930 --> 00:01:45.109
Well, I mean, this kind of ties into RFK's thing

00:01:45.109 --> 00:01:49.109
in court today with the Senate or the Congress

00:01:49.109 --> 00:01:53.980
where he's proposing the school lunches. And

00:01:53.980 --> 00:01:56.579
I'm sorry, that's not it. He was saying that

00:01:56.579 --> 00:01:58.959
the people that are on welfare, that they're

00:01:58.959 --> 00:02:01.579
not allowed to buy sugary drinks. The United

00:02:01.579 --> 00:02:03.819
States citizens shouldn't be paying for this

00:02:03.819 --> 00:02:06.579
person to be buying sugary substance to eat or

00:02:06.579 --> 00:02:08.259
drink. Correct. Because it's just like, why?

00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:10.620
You know, that doesn't make sense. Because he's

00:02:10.620 --> 00:02:13.099
like, well, my department then pays for them

00:02:13.099 --> 00:02:15.060
when they're on diabetes and then their health

00:02:15.060 --> 00:02:18.330
is failing. Yeah, and it does make sense. And

00:02:18.330 --> 00:02:20.789
we're supposed to dress for success, so you've

00:02:20.789 --> 00:02:23.990
got to pound that. And good for him. And he's

00:02:23.990 --> 00:02:25.770
getting pushed back. He is getting pushed back.

00:02:25.830 --> 00:02:28.669
But the thing is that even though I'm against

00:02:28.669 --> 00:02:31.969
all the chemicals they put in our foods, including

00:02:31.969 --> 00:02:33.949
this Chick -fil -A stuff, even though everyone

00:02:33.949 --> 00:02:35.530
fights me on it, but at the end of the day, this

00:02:35.530 --> 00:02:37.830
shit's bad for you. And I know it's argumentative.

00:02:37.990 --> 00:02:42.069
Show me proof. Whatever. I don't care. You have

00:02:42.069 --> 00:02:45.479
to have it in there. It's like an accepted thing

00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:48.939
where you – because to have all the food on the

00:02:48.939 --> 00:02:52.000
shelves is going to go bad. I mean, yeah, we

00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:55.020
got to have rubber in our bread. We got to have

00:02:55.020 --> 00:02:57.819
all that shit in our bread to make it last longer.

00:02:57.819 --> 00:03:00.699
Unless we go back to the regional stores supported

00:03:00.699 --> 00:03:04.020
by regional farms. Yeah. So, I mean, that's it.

00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:07.400
So, look, if you want – these companies to stay

00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:09.659
in business so that you can get your food, well,

00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:12.180
then you know what? I think there's certain things

00:03:12.180 --> 00:03:16.000
like the dyes. Find another thing, beet juice,

00:03:16.219 --> 00:03:18.539
whatever, cherry juice, to get your color. It

00:03:18.539 --> 00:03:21.319
may not be as vibrant. There's certain things

00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:24.139
they can definitely remove that should never

00:03:24.139 --> 00:03:26.319
have been in there to begin with. Then there

00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:28.080
are other things, like you mentioned, Sean, that

00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:31.180
are necessary for the agricultural environment

00:03:31.180 --> 00:03:38.210
that we have. Right. You know, my tax dollars

00:03:38.210 --> 00:03:41.009
shouldn't be funding someone else's cake supply

00:03:41.009 --> 00:03:44.569
or soda supply. I agree with that. But I think

00:03:44.569 --> 00:03:46.789
every individual has the right to eat and drink

00:03:46.789 --> 00:03:48.650
whatever they want. Absolutely. You know, if

00:03:48.650 --> 00:03:50.129
you want it, that's fine. I'm just not going

00:03:50.129 --> 00:03:52.810
to pay for it out of my tax dollars and your

00:03:52.810 --> 00:03:57.169
food stamps. Right. And by the way. This is the

00:03:57.169 --> 00:04:00.389
Dudes Like Us podcast. It is. So it is. It's

00:04:00.389 --> 00:04:04.669
the first half of August 5th. Oh my God. I know.

00:04:04.889 --> 00:04:07.849
Not only is it August, we're only a week into

00:04:07.849 --> 00:04:10.289
it. Man, I was looking at the calendar and I'm

00:04:10.289 --> 00:04:14.289
thinking, um, shit. Christmas is almost here.

00:04:14.629 --> 00:04:16.889
Yeah, Christmas is here. Well, I was thinking

00:04:16.889 --> 00:04:19.810
Halloween. Halloween candy's already out. Because,

00:04:19.990 --> 00:04:22.170
you know, I shared with Dudes Like Us, I'm Sean.

00:04:22.519 --> 00:04:24.740
I'm Paul. And I'm Jeff. And we just can't shut

00:04:24.740 --> 00:04:28.800
the fuck up. But I was looking at, I had, for

00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:30.300
those folks out there that haven't been listening

00:04:30.300 --> 00:04:31.959
to the podcast your first time, we are a bunch

00:04:31.959 --> 00:04:34.100
of dudes that are dorks, and we thought it would

00:04:34.100 --> 00:04:36.980
be cool to record ourselves babbling incoherently

00:04:36.980 --> 00:04:39.660
just about anything. And we've been doing it

00:04:39.660 --> 00:04:41.740
for five years. And they just got a taste of

00:04:41.740 --> 00:04:44.839
it. There it is. Aimless talk. But we're dudes

00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:47.319
like us. And we hope you guys listen to us. Find

00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:50.540
us on Instagram and Facebook. DudesLikeUs -podcast.

00:04:50.819 --> 00:04:52.379
DudesLikeUs -woodcraft. Because we've got some

00:04:52.379 --> 00:04:53.860
cool stuff out there. Some Shrag if you guys

00:04:53.860 --> 00:04:55.459
want to log on. And you want some of that stuff,

00:04:55.579 --> 00:04:58.160
DM us. Direct message us. I think one of our

00:04:58.160 --> 00:04:59.319
phone numbers are on there. I think it's mine.

00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:01.319
Or I think we're going to give everybody Jeff's

00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:04.360
number. There you go. I ignore all phone numbers.

00:05:04.379 --> 00:05:06.439
I know what they are. Don't call the phone number.

00:05:06.439 --> 00:05:09.259
I do. It drives my wife nuts. Well, what if it's

00:05:09.259 --> 00:05:11.100
somebody? It never is. I'll tell you what. I'll

00:05:11.100 --> 00:05:13.079
put my phone number. It never is somebody. Well,

00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:15.920
it's a scam. Well, not a scam, but it's a call

00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:18.980
center. Solicitation. Your auto warranty's up.

00:05:19.160 --> 00:05:21.319
Right. Or you need a new roof or whatever it

00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:23.300
is. Right. It's something. And we're getting

00:05:23.300 --> 00:05:25.319
a lot of that lately with the storm season being

00:05:25.319 --> 00:05:28.939
here. Yeah. So we were talking about food, and

00:05:28.939 --> 00:05:31.720
I kind of went off on the RFK thing, and then

00:05:31.720 --> 00:05:34.079
we were talking about the food. Where was I just

00:05:34.079 --> 00:05:40.089
at? Yeah, you were taking a shot at Chick -fil

00:05:40.089 --> 00:05:43.449
-A. Well, look, I'm taking a shot. I'm just giving

00:05:43.449 --> 00:05:45.029
you a hard time. It's the industry, you know,

00:05:45.089 --> 00:05:47.470
and you've got to pick your battles. You know,

00:05:47.550 --> 00:05:50.370
either you ingest this stuff and you know it's

00:05:50.370 --> 00:05:51.810
bad for you and you know it's going to make you

00:05:51.810 --> 00:05:53.750
fat and you know it's going to ultimately kill

00:05:53.750 --> 00:05:55.149
you, but you're like, what the fuck? We're going

00:05:55.149 --> 00:05:59.170
to die of hunger if we can't be dependent on

00:05:59.170 --> 00:06:01.750
the farm stuff. Well, it's also a choice to eat

00:06:01.750 --> 00:06:05.209
that food. I mean, my wife and I have... consciously

00:06:05.209 --> 00:06:08.009
made the decision to try to not eat the processed

00:06:08.009 --> 00:06:10.209
stuff. I couldn't tell you the last time I bought

00:06:10.209 --> 00:06:13.449
anything frozen, outside of frozen corn. Because

00:06:13.449 --> 00:06:15.629
I think some of that frozen stuff and the canned

00:06:15.629 --> 00:06:19.490
stuff is the most processed. If you look for

00:06:19.490 --> 00:06:22.629
those cans of corn they sell at Walmart, that

00:06:22.629 --> 00:06:27.029
is made in China. The can, probably. No, the

00:06:27.029 --> 00:06:29.910
product in the can. It says the corn, made in

00:06:29.910 --> 00:06:34.300
China. That's crazy. To think that we here in

00:06:34.300 --> 00:06:36.759
the United States are getting our corn in China.

00:06:36.860 --> 00:06:38.980
But look, here's a good rule of thumb. And I

00:06:38.980 --> 00:06:40.680
may have mentioned this on some of the prior

00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:44.680
podcasts. But if you want to try to take a stab

00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:48.740
at eating healthy, the goal is stay out of the

00:06:48.740 --> 00:06:53.160
middle of the supermarket. Shop only on the perimeter.

00:06:53.339 --> 00:06:57.680
Because if you go into the center where you have

00:06:57.680 --> 00:07:00.050
the frozen foods, all frozen foods are bad. That

00:07:00.050 --> 00:07:02.430
canned shit. Canned foods, there's all kinds

00:07:02.430 --> 00:07:04.269
of sulfites. What about just chicken breasts?

00:07:04.430 --> 00:07:06.209
I buy frozen chicken breasts. That's on the outside.

00:07:06.490 --> 00:07:08.529
Yeah, but they're on the outside. Oh, you were

00:07:08.529 --> 00:07:10.990
saying anything frozen is bad. No, no, no. No,

00:07:10.990 --> 00:07:13.329
no, no. I meant like they have the frozen sections

00:07:13.329 --> 00:07:15.050
in the middle because they got the frozen pot

00:07:15.050 --> 00:07:16.490
pies, the turkey pot pies. Oh, yeah, yeah. Like

00:07:16.490 --> 00:07:19.050
the lean kazees and all that shit, right? The

00:07:19.050 --> 00:07:20.689
hungry man. Hungry man. Yeah, and all the canned

00:07:20.689 --> 00:07:22.750
meats that we could have seriously died that

00:07:22.750 --> 00:07:25.509
day when we decided to do that. Yeah, no shit.

00:07:25.610 --> 00:07:27.899
That's your house? I think we were close. I felt

00:07:27.899 --> 00:07:30.579
the arteries hardening. So those folks that don't

00:07:30.579 --> 00:07:33.279
know, we went over to Paul's house. We had some

00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:35.579
passionate program. We were like, oh, let's go

00:07:35.579 --> 00:07:37.500
to the store and get all canned foods and see

00:07:37.500 --> 00:07:39.860
what's going on. Canned meat, specifically. Yeah,

00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:43.459
we said, let's have a canned meat night. It was

00:07:43.459 --> 00:07:46.379
endless. It was disgusting. Yes. I mean, part

00:07:46.379 --> 00:07:47.899
of it was good. I was kind of like, oh. But then

00:07:47.899 --> 00:07:52.079
you just feel like, God. I feel like David Spade

00:07:52.079 --> 00:07:55.699
from Chris Farley movie, The Black Shave. Oh,

00:07:55.800 --> 00:07:59.060
no, what is the other one? Tommy Boy. Oh, I can

00:07:59.060 --> 00:08:02.319
hear you getting fatter. That's the way I felt

00:08:02.319 --> 00:08:05.100
pounding down that canned meat. Yeah, it was

00:08:05.100 --> 00:08:06.600
gross. Yeah, it was bad. We had some bad stuff.

00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:09.519
I don't think we had tuna. If I can't food, I'll

00:08:09.519 --> 00:08:12.439
eat tuna. I'll eat canned tuna. I'll eat sardines.

00:08:12.540 --> 00:08:14.740
But once you start getting it and spam, that's

00:08:14.740 --> 00:08:16.519
the other one. I'm freaking out about even like

00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:19.439
canned tuna. I mean, I used to be a proponent

00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:21.779
of eating that. And now I won't because they're

00:08:21.779 --> 00:08:23.180
saying there's high levels of mercury in there.

00:08:23.220 --> 00:08:25.220
It's always been that way. High levels of mercury.

00:08:25.300 --> 00:08:27.639
They said you should limit your canned tuna intake

00:08:27.639 --> 00:08:31.279
by to a certain number of cans a week. So that's

00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:33.379
not a problem because I eat one like every six

00:08:33.379 --> 00:08:37.830
months. Yeah. Tuna fish. Yeah. Honestly, I really

00:08:37.830 --> 00:08:41.490
enjoy Spam. I had a can of it this week. You

00:08:41.490 --> 00:08:43.710
ate the whole can? That's like eight servings.

00:08:44.570 --> 00:08:48.509
Really? You get like a little cube of it? It

00:08:48.509 --> 00:08:51.049
is. I sliced it up and I put four slices per

00:08:51.049 --> 00:08:53.909
sandwich. And I had four or five sandwiches.

00:08:54.250 --> 00:08:56.750
So what is that? I don't know. Yeah, there's

00:08:56.750 --> 00:08:58.570
a lot of servings in that little can. That's

00:08:58.570 --> 00:09:01.450
bullshit. I got the low salt one for you. I could

00:09:01.450 --> 00:09:03.370
literally eat the whole can. I know. I mean,

00:09:03.389 --> 00:09:05.129
it's so easy. I almost did, and I was looking.

00:09:05.149 --> 00:09:07.049
I was like, wow, there's like seven or eight

00:09:07.049 --> 00:09:10.250
servings in here. It's ridiculous. So what am

00:09:10.250 --> 00:09:12.409
I supposed to do? Compliment this spam with some

00:09:12.409 --> 00:09:14.649
other sort of protein? Slice it into seven, and

00:09:14.649 --> 00:09:16.649
you have one slice. Yes. That's it. That's your

00:09:16.649 --> 00:09:20.409
meal for the day. Plus lettuce, tomatoes, and

00:09:20.409 --> 00:09:23.710
cheese. Maybe a steak. I think I had four sandwiches

00:09:23.710 --> 00:09:26.809
of four slices each, so 16 slices. Probably white

00:09:26.809 --> 00:09:32.350
bread. Hell, white bread is bleached flour. It's

00:09:32.350 --> 00:09:34.149
frustrating because my brain works like that.

00:09:34.980 --> 00:09:37.080
It's kind of like, you know, you try to eat healthy.

00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:38.519
Oh, white bread's healthy for you. Well, no,

00:09:38.539 --> 00:09:40.179
it's not. You're using bleached flour. It's not

00:09:40.179 --> 00:09:42.159
good for you. Wheat bread. Oh, wheat bread. Seven

00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:43.419
grain bread. It's supposed to be great for you.

00:09:43.500 --> 00:09:45.139
Well, it turns out that's not fucking great.

00:09:45.240 --> 00:09:48.220
No, it's bleached wheat bread. Well, they use

00:09:48.220 --> 00:09:49.940
different types of seed oils to keep it. I mean,

00:09:49.960 --> 00:09:51.700
it's just, look, and I know you guys get sick

00:09:51.700 --> 00:09:53.240
of me saying it. What's going on with my chair?

00:09:53.299 --> 00:09:55.120
I feel like I'm reaching here. I don't know.

00:09:56.440 --> 00:09:58.639
Did your hemorrhoid go away? So you're not as

00:09:58.639 --> 00:10:04.320
swollen down there? No, thankfully. You know,

00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:06.980
I don't have those types of hemorrhoids. I do

00:10:06.980 --> 00:10:08.720
have hemorrhoids maybe once or twice a year.

00:10:08.720 --> 00:10:11.019
The external kind? The big bulbous cauliflower

00:10:11.019 --> 00:10:14.220
-y kind? I don't even really know. They're kind

00:10:14.220 --> 00:10:18.340
of, I don't know. It's uncomfortable maybe once

00:10:18.340 --> 00:10:20.539
or twice a year, but it doesn't last very long.

00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:22.600
Was it after, like, a really hard shit trying

00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:25.460
to push it out? No, no, no. Well, Paul coached

00:10:25.460 --> 00:10:28.620
me on this, and I got to tell you. No, do share.

00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:31.480
On hemorrhoids? No, no. Because, look, I was

00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:33.919
suffering for an extended period for, like, a

00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:35.360
whole summer or something. I don't recall what

00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:38.139
period it was, but, you know, I was kind of like,

00:10:38.220 --> 00:10:40.620
I was explaining. I was like, fuck, man, this

00:10:40.620 --> 00:10:43.399
sucks. And then Paul's like, why don't you just

00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:46.820
get one of those suppository and just be done

00:10:46.820 --> 00:10:49.279
with it? And I was like, what? What are you talking

00:10:49.279 --> 00:10:50.720
about? I don't remember this. What do you mean

00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:53.179
a suppository? What do you mean? It's a pill

00:10:53.179 --> 00:10:55.720
you show up your ass. For hemorrhoids? Yes. Oh

00:10:55.720 --> 00:10:57.559
yeah, preparation age. Dude, you told me. No.

00:10:58.179 --> 00:11:00.240
I've never heard of a pill. Now I know about

00:11:00.240 --> 00:11:03.039
the ointment. The lube you were about to say.

00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:06.519
Maybe you weren't referring to the suppository.

00:11:06.519 --> 00:11:08.759
I think I mentioned the suppository. Yeah. Well,

00:11:08.820 --> 00:11:12.980
I know Paul did too, but my point is I did it.

00:11:14.159 --> 00:11:20.460
Did it keep flying out? It actually did. It bothered

00:11:20.460 --> 00:11:25.980
me. It scarred me for a while. You blow it off

00:11:25.980 --> 00:11:27.240
and put it back up there? First of all, it's

00:11:27.240 --> 00:11:30.179
odd to put a suppository up your bottom. Let's

00:11:30.179 --> 00:11:32.620
just be weird. It's not normal. And when I was

00:11:32.620 --> 00:11:33.919
doing it, I was kind of fighting through it.

00:11:33.940 --> 00:11:35.720
My butthole was kind of like, no, man, this is

00:11:35.720 --> 00:11:38.019
out only. Out only. Then you had to keep your

00:11:38.019 --> 00:11:42.440
finger on it? Get a little hock to it. And so

00:11:42.440 --> 00:11:43.960
I get it in there. I'm like, all right, fine.

00:11:44.080 --> 00:11:46.179
Then all of a sudden, my butt's like. And it

00:11:46.179 --> 00:11:47.620
was like, bloop, wet in the water. I was like,

00:11:47.659 --> 00:11:51.179
are you fucking kidding me? You got to fish it

00:11:51.179 --> 00:11:54.080
out. Now I got a new one out of the package.

00:11:54.179 --> 00:11:55.799
And I put it in there. And I was like, all right.

00:11:55.879 --> 00:11:58.960
So now I'm contorted in the bathroom. Now I'm

00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:00.120
not sitting on the toilet anymore. Do you have

00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:02.820
like a leg hiked up on the thing? I did. Oh,

00:12:02.840 --> 00:12:05.320
it's just weird. And then Tara walked in. Oh,

00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:09.179
my God. The door's locked. And I shoved that

00:12:09.179 --> 00:12:11.519
thing in there. And my butt's like, I won't quit

00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:14.100
you. And I'm holding it in. And it's just, anyway.

00:12:14.220 --> 00:12:16.879
So it worked. And then, you know... Are they

00:12:16.879 --> 00:12:21.039
lubed? Or is it all dry and like... It's not

00:12:21.039 --> 00:12:25.580
like a... It's not a... Sorry, I'm getting...

00:12:25.580 --> 00:12:28.360
It's not a pine cone. I'm getting a migraine.

00:12:29.059 --> 00:12:32.779
I don't know. I've never done this. Wow. I would

00:12:32.779 --> 00:12:34.500
think they'd have some kind of lubricant or something.

00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:39.009
Jesus. Welcome to the podcast. We're not even

00:12:39.009 --> 00:12:42.889
toasty yet. It's downhill from here. Painful.

00:12:43.090 --> 00:12:46.690
Well, we did. I took today off because we ended

00:12:46.690 --> 00:12:49.669
up going down to the blendery, and I think we're

00:12:49.669 --> 00:12:51.970
going to talk more in depth about the blendery

00:12:51.970 --> 00:12:54.629
experience when we have a representative here.

00:12:54.750 --> 00:12:57.370
I think his name is Andy. Andy Daniels or something

00:12:57.370 --> 00:13:01.090
like that. I feel kind of odd not saying his

00:13:01.090 --> 00:13:03.110
name correctly, so let me look in here real quick.

00:13:03.809 --> 00:13:06.950
Andy Ziegler. The whiskey blendery. Yeah, we

00:13:06.950 --> 00:13:09.690
weren't even close. Yeah, not even close. But

00:13:09.690 --> 00:13:12.629
I'll tell you what, when we went there, so first

00:13:12.629 --> 00:13:14.210
of all, Jackie Mack, thank you, shout out to

00:13:14.210 --> 00:13:17.129
Jackie Mack for getting us hooked up. She got

00:13:17.129 --> 00:13:22.710
us some slots to do some judging for a batch

00:13:22.710 --> 00:13:27.549
of 30 different blends. And I didn't know this

00:13:27.549 --> 00:13:30.580
about the blendery. So I was... Thinking it was

00:13:30.580 --> 00:13:32.100
kind of like Oak and Eden where they get some

00:13:32.100 --> 00:13:36.080
NGP shit and they put some different flavors

00:13:36.080 --> 00:13:37.980
on that rye, mix this, a little of that, a little

00:13:37.980 --> 00:13:40.059
of this. They put a concoction and there's your

00:13:40.059 --> 00:13:43.039
elixir. You got it. Move on. No, it's not like

00:13:43.039 --> 00:13:45.940
that. I will say it's kind of like Rare Character.

00:13:46.639 --> 00:13:48.440
Of course, Andy was kind of like, no, it's not

00:13:48.440 --> 00:13:50.840
like Rare Character. But it kind of is. They

00:13:50.840 --> 00:13:54.340
procure the barrels, all right? But instead of

00:13:54.340 --> 00:13:56.720
serving that one barrel, they break it down and

00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:59.779
they mix them with other. barrels right so that's

00:13:59.779 --> 00:14:01.620
what they they call it the blender and of course

00:14:01.620 --> 00:14:03.480
andy will go and is that what you understood

00:14:03.480 --> 00:14:07.320
too yeah i think i think his focus is more creating

00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:10.240
an environment where people have uh involvement

00:14:10.240 --> 00:14:14.600
uh and a hand in in creating some of the the

00:14:14.600 --> 00:14:17.220
blends i mean they're the experts they clearly

00:14:17.220 --> 00:14:20.370
blend them but they also it's almost like you

00:14:20.370 --> 00:14:22.149
know it's like build a bear it's like build a

00:14:22.149 --> 00:14:24.070
bourbon right and they and they have these things

00:14:24.070 --> 00:14:26.669
where people come in and and they give you guidelines

00:14:26.669 --> 00:14:28.649
they're kind of like i kind of like this mash

00:14:28.649 --> 00:14:31.379
bill and they will take that mash bill and be

00:14:31.379 --> 00:14:33.259
like, all right, let's see. And they kind of

00:14:33.259 --> 00:14:34.980
take a look at the barrels that they have, the

00:14:34.980 --> 00:14:36.980
current mash bill, and then they blend them up.

00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:39.379
That's who we met with, Andy Ziegler. We saw

00:14:39.379 --> 00:14:42.240
Richard Blum. We saw Jerry Smith. We saw Tim

00:14:42.240 --> 00:14:44.659
Hewles, the whole team up there. They were all

00:14:44.659 --> 00:14:47.220
really great. We had such a great time. And they

00:14:47.220 --> 00:14:49.559
broke us up into, we had 30 different people

00:14:49.559 --> 00:14:55.320
that had. had their blends. And so they had 375

00:14:55.320 --> 00:15:00.200
milliliter bottles. And they broke us up into

00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:02.379
groups and I think we had about 6 groups of 5

00:15:02.379 --> 00:15:05.399
or 7 groups of 4 or something like that. Whatever,

00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:09.539
something like that. And each group had 6 samples

00:15:09.539 --> 00:15:11.879
and a piece of paper and you'd write and you'd

00:15:11.879 --> 00:15:13.899
figure it out. I'll tell you what, it was cool.

00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:17.960
Because first of all, most of the blends were

00:15:17.960 --> 00:15:20.429
pretty good. I mean, they really were. I mean,

00:15:20.490 --> 00:15:23.950
they would score. They would not score bad. I

00:15:23.950 --> 00:15:25.870
mean, there was one or two that was kind of like

00:15:25.870 --> 00:15:28.870
iffy, but it was weird. It's because when we

00:15:28.870 --> 00:15:31.440
first started out. And I tasted one of them.

00:15:31.500 --> 00:15:33.860
I was making my little notations. And I was like,

00:15:33.899 --> 00:15:36.440
this one is not going to be picked. And then

00:15:36.440 --> 00:15:38.940
I ended up shaking it. And it stood out a little

00:15:38.940 --> 00:15:42.000
bit longer. And I tasted about maybe 10 minutes

00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:43.740
later. And I was like, holy shit, this thing

00:15:43.740 --> 00:15:46.460
just moved up in the flavor. Yeah, it was difficult

00:15:46.460 --> 00:15:49.559
from that perspective. But in each station, only

00:15:49.559 --> 00:15:52.000
two could advance. Correct. They're doing multiple

00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:54.100
rounds of this. And two could advance from each

00:15:54.100 --> 00:15:56.940
station. And the way it started, though, is there

00:15:56.940 --> 00:16:00.720
are teams of four people. that get together in

00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:03.100
a competition and they have a certain time limit

00:16:03.100 --> 00:16:06.399
and they have to create a blend, right? They're

00:16:06.399 --> 00:16:07.779
mixing different things and they're all trying

00:16:07.779 --> 00:16:09.960
it and then they eventually go with their blend

00:16:09.960 --> 00:16:12.220
and then they submit it to the competition. It's

00:16:12.220 --> 00:16:14.139
$2 ,000 to enter, by the way. Yeah, it's not

00:16:14.139 --> 00:16:17.679
cheap. $2 ,000 or $1 ,000? I think it's $2 ,000.

00:16:17.919 --> 00:16:19.659
And they get, but it all goes to a great, he

00:16:19.659 --> 00:16:21.299
said the foundation goes to, I forget exactly

00:16:21.299 --> 00:16:24.179
who it was, it was displacing sex trafficked

00:16:24.179 --> 00:16:27.870
women in our local areas. Right. I may do some

00:16:27.870 --> 00:16:29.929
volunteer work for those guys because what they're

00:16:29.929 --> 00:16:32.029
doing is they're helping build homes and fixing

00:16:32.029 --> 00:16:37.210
up homes and stuff. So I could probably volunteer

00:16:37.210 --> 00:16:40.049
some time. So is this a place that we can go

00:16:40.049 --> 00:16:43.389
out there without having to join their group?

00:16:43.909 --> 00:16:46.870
I was kind of fuzzy on their membership because

00:16:46.870 --> 00:16:48.769
I know there's a membership, but I don't know

00:16:48.769 --> 00:16:51.129
what that all entails. I know you can go out

00:16:51.129 --> 00:16:53.429
there and do the distillery or whatever. It's

00:16:53.429 --> 00:16:56.230
not a distillery. What does that say there? It's

00:16:56.230 --> 00:16:59.610
a tasting event. A tasting event. Look, honestly,

00:16:59.789 --> 00:17:01.490
I don't know a whole lot about it. We're kind

00:17:01.490 --> 00:17:03.350
of walking in there blind, and by the time I

00:17:03.350 --> 00:17:06.309
left there, I was a little seasoned. Well, when

00:17:06.309 --> 00:17:08.269
Andy comes on, we'll ask him these questions.

00:17:08.430 --> 00:17:10.690
Yeah, but it was good. We had a great experience.

00:17:10.750 --> 00:17:12.609
Thank you, Jackie Mack, for hooking us up with

00:17:12.609 --> 00:17:14.450
that, and I look forward to the next venture

00:17:14.450 --> 00:17:17.160
out there. All right. The last thing I'll say

00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:20.279
about it is people bring, like Sean was saying,

00:17:20.339 --> 00:17:22.519
a certain mash bill to them, right? Or they bring

00:17:22.519 --> 00:17:24.819
their preferences. Like, I want something that

00:17:24.819 --> 00:17:27.339
has this and this and this, and I really appreciate

00:17:27.339 --> 00:17:29.880
that bourbon that has these notes and stuff.

00:17:30.059 --> 00:17:32.640
And they will create a bourbon for you. Yeah.

00:17:32.880 --> 00:17:34.859
You know what I mean? I like orange Fanta soda

00:17:34.859 --> 00:17:38.200
with some cherries. I like buttercream. Yeah.

00:17:38.599 --> 00:17:41.319
No, seriously. They will. We'll get some Frey

00:17:41.319 --> 00:17:45.000
Ranch with 100 % wheat. You're in. Yeah, it's

00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:47.400
interesting. It's very unique what they're doing

00:17:47.400 --> 00:17:49.500
over there. Oh, speaking of that, we've got the

00:17:49.500 --> 00:17:51.519
Oregon Spirits. We've got to revisit that, by

00:17:51.519 --> 00:17:53.420
the way. Oh, yeah, we do. Yeah, I've got to tell

00:17:53.420 --> 00:17:55.339
you, because, I mean, the first time it was tasting

00:17:55.339 --> 00:17:58.400
like grass, clippings, and sampling that at Total

00:17:58.400 --> 00:18:01.200
Wine last week, I was kind of, huh, there's some

00:18:01.200 --> 00:18:03.319
similarities to that Frey Ranch 100 % wheat.

00:18:03.460 --> 00:18:06.700
We'll have to remember to add that to the...

00:18:06.700 --> 00:18:08.839
Dig that out. Yeah, pull it out to the front.

00:18:09.460 --> 00:18:11.880
It's over here in the cabinet over here. The

00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:15.210
do -not -go zone. What do they call that? In

00:18:15.210 --> 00:18:18.230
Sweden, they have the no -go zone. Yeah, the

00:18:18.230 --> 00:18:21.049
no -go zone. We have a no -go zone where we have

00:18:21.049 --> 00:18:24.569
all the misfits of whiskeys from Paul's first

00:18:24.569 --> 00:18:28.130
run. Speaking of Sweden, it's not exactly Sweden,

00:18:28.269 --> 00:18:31.150
but did you hear about this Denmark Zoo? What

00:18:31.150 --> 00:18:35.779
they've done? They posted on Facebook. that they

00:18:35.779 --> 00:18:38.359
are requesting people to donate their pets so

00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:42.279
that they can feed it to their tigers and lions.

00:18:42.359 --> 00:18:45.299
Yes, I saw the headline. I didn't realize that

00:18:45.299 --> 00:18:46.960
that's what they were doing. Yes, they're asking

00:18:46.960 --> 00:18:49.660
for pets to feed their... Do they have to be

00:18:49.660 --> 00:18:52.680
dead? Predator, no. They'll euthanize them before

00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:55.900
they throw them in the cage, but they want healthy...

00:18:56.490 --> 00:18:59.670
non -sick animals. That is horrific. Are these

00:18:59.670 --> 00:19:02.049
animals that you're going to put your dog down?

00:19:02.450 --> 00:19:04.690
From what I understand, they're not looking for

00:19:04.690 --> 00:19:08.829
dogs and cats. They're looking for rodents. Well,

00:19:09.009 --> 00:19:12.990
the guinea pigs, the hamsters, the mice, the

00:19:12.990 --> 00:19:17.809
rabbit. Also, small horses. Chickens. Small horses.

00:19:17.990 --> 00:19:20.369
Yes, and chickens. But not sickly dying ones.

00:19:20.589 --> 00:19:22.269
Correct. They want to be healthy because they're

00:19:22.269 --> 00:19:23.509
going to feed them, right? They don't want to...

00:19:24.719 --> 00:19:27.539
that's riddled in cancer that the cat's going

00:19:27.539 --> 00:19:29.400
to eat, right? Yeah, but sometimes those are

00:19:29.400 --> 00:19:31.960
the best tasting. Could be. So they're asking

00:19:31.960 --> 00:19:34.779
these people to donate their perfectly healthy

00:19:34.779 --> 00:19:37.180
pets. I don't know how I feel about that. Yeah,

00:19:37.220 --> 00:19:38.940
how is it going over? And they don't have to

00:19:38.940 --> 00:19:41.880
be necessarily pets. I'm just like, hey, look,

00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:43.900
man, well, people have farms, and they're kind

00:19:43.900 --> 00:19:45.980
of like, well, fuck, man, I have like 50 pigs,

00:19:46.180 --> 00:19:50.680
okay? I would love to donate 20 of these pigs

00:19:50.680 --> 00:19:53.259
to the cause. I'm not emotionally attached to

00:19:53.259 --> 00:19:55.740
them. Charlotte's Web? What is the name of the

00:19:55.740 --> 00:19:57.799
piglet? You know, the Charlotte's Web. I don't

00:19:57.799 --> 00:20:00.420
know. I don't know. Piglet. Is that his name?

00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:02.640
That's Winnie the Pooh, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah,

00:20:02.700 --> 00:20:06.299
might be. So anyway, there's a bunch of folks

00:20:06.299 --> 00:20:09.220
up in arms about this. And, you know, if you're

00:20:09.220 --> 00:20:11.119
like in your situation, but if you have like

00:20:11.119 --> 00:20:13.079
your kids have a rabbit, you're just like, I'm

00:20:13.079 --> 00:20:14.319
done with the rabbit. I'm just going to take

00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:16.720
it and tell the kids it died and then submit

00:20:16.720 --> 00:20:19.480
it to the zoo and say, here you go. Yeah. And

00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:22.599
then, you know. I guess if they're pulling from

00:20:22.599 --> 00:20:24.960
a broad enough group of people that would, you

00:20:24.960 --> 00:20:27.000
know, slightly, some would be interested, they

00:20:27.000 --> 00:20:29.099
can get enough to feed their animals. Are they

00:20:29.099 --> 00:20:32.019
trying to save money? I don't know what they're,

00:20:32.039 --> 00:20:34.420
probably. Is the zoo struggling? I don't know.

00:20:34.619 --> 00:20:39.279
I don't know. I mean, possibly. Donate her horse.

00:20:39.299 --> 00:20:41.059
So, yeah, so you can give them a horse as well.

00:20:41.390 --> 00:20:44.269
Wow. So is this like Jurassic Park where you

00:20:44.269 --> 00:20:47.329
just drop off the pet and they just hook it up

00:20:47.329 --> 00:20:49.990
to a... I don't know, man. Or do you watch them

00:20:49.990 --> 00:20:52.890
get devoured? Yeah. No, they have a wood chipper

00:20:52.890 --> 00:20:55.609
out front. Like a viewing room? Yeah, they have

00:20:55.609 --> 00:20:57.569
a wood chipper in front. You drive through, throw

00:20:57.569 --> 00:21:01.230
it through the window. Guinea pig says, thank

00:21:01.230 --> 00:21:05.430
you. Whatever in Danish. Thank you. Yes. Danke.

00:21:06.390 --> 00:21:09.089
Danke, Shane. That's German. I don't know. Could

00:21:09.089 --> 00:21:11.170
be the same. Yeah, I don't see that being very

00:21:11.170 --> 00:21:14.009
popular. Yeah. And look, shout out to them for

00:21:14.009 --> 00:21:17.150
thinking outside the box. And there are some

00:21:17.150 --> 00:21:20.069
people out there that, you know, look, farmers

00:21:20.069 --> 00:21:24.170
don't have, you know, when you around animals

00:21:24.170 --> 00:21:27.470
like that, I mean, think about who does the congressman

00:21:27.470 --> 00:21:29.829
or the senator that shot her dog, you know, because

00:21:29.829 --> 00:21:35.430
it was Christine Owen. My point about even bringing

00:21:35.430 --> 00:21:38.349
that up is that some farm animals like that,

00:21:38.490 --> 00:21:40.670
even though you're a farm animal and you like

00:21:40.670 --> 00:21:42.329
them, it doesn't mean that you're emotionally

00:21:42.329 --> 00:21:46.190
attached to them. They're not germane or they're

00:21:46.190 --> 00:21:50.509
not relevant to your day -to -day thing. I get

00:21:50.509 --> 00:21:53.750
it, but there may be some people out there that

00:21:53.750 --> 00:21:56.190
be like, hey, look, I'm going to donate. Instead

00:21:56.190 --> 00:21:58.349
of donating money, I'm going to give you my cat.

00:21:58.490 --> 00:22:02.170
I'm going to give you 10 pigs. Well, this zoo

00:22:02.170 --> 00:22:05.410
looks like it's had quite the controversy over

00:22:05.410 --> 00:22:09.049
the last decade. So in 2014, it killed a healthy

00:22:09.049 --> 00:22:12.150
young giraffe named Marius because his genes

00:22:12.150 --> 00:22:13.869
were already well represented among the captive

00:22:13.869 --> 00:22:18.069
giraffes. His genes? Yes, his blue genes. So

00:22:18.069 --> 00:22:22.049
they killed it, autopsied it, and then fed it

00:22:22.049 --> 00:22:24.829
to the cats. And then a few weeks later, they

00:22:24.829 --> 00:22:27.349
killed four of those lions because they didn't

00:22:27.349 --> 00:22:30.640
want them to have babies. It says two cubs and

00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:34.059
their parents. The zoo said the lions were killed

00:22:34.059 --> 00:22:36.119
to prevent the male lion from breeding with his

00:22:36.119 --> 00:22:38.299
daughters and prevent a newly arrived young male

00:22:38.299 --> 00:22:41.380
lion from attacking the cubs. Well, there's things

00:22:41.380 --> 00:22:43.160
they have to do to manage the zoo. Why don't

00:22:43.160 --> 00:22:45.740
they cut their nuts off instead? Or move those

00:22:45.740 --> 00:22:50.660
animals somewhere else. That's the next paragraph

00:22:50.660 --> 00:22:53.319
is the European zoos allow them to breed to keep

00:22:53.319 --> 00:22:58.099
more of a natural lifestyle for the kids. Right.

00:22:58.440 --> 00:23:00.900
As opposed to cutting their nuts off. Right.

00:23:01.160 --> 00:23:04.579
So they'd rather kill them than... Yeah. That's

00:23:04.579 --> 00:23:07.859
more natural. Yeah. Well, whatever. You know

00:23:07.859 --> 00:23:12.519
what? I'm not a zoologist or a zookeeper. I'm

00:23:12.519 --> 00:23:14.619
a zoo connoisseur. Right. I'm not. I'm not a

00:23:14.619 --> 00:23:18.180
zoo steward. So it's kind of like the complaint

00:23:18.180 --> 00:23:20.500
that people have about hunting deer and hunting

00:23:20.500 --> 00:23:23.759
elk and stuff. I mean, there's game management

00:23:23.759 --> 00:23:26.059
involved in that, and there's a very... highly

00:23:26.059 --> 00:23:29.420
scientific reason for what they do maybe this

00:23:29.420 --> 00:23:31.920
kind of follows in that same vein well maybe

00:23:31.920 --> 00:23:33.660
but i would think that they could go hey are

00:23:33.660 --> 00:23:35.440
there any other zoos out there who need a couple

00:23:35.440 --> 00:23:38.779
lions and maybe maybe they they did put that

00:23:38.779 --> 00:23:41.319
notice out there and nobody or hey is there a

00:23:41.319 --> 00:23:43.500
potential to release them into the wild well

00:23:43.500 --> 00:23:45.759
i mean we're crossing that line across uh many

00:23:45.759 --> 00:23:48.539
different borders i mean we're starting to take

00:23:48.539 --> 00:23:53.140
human corpses and plant them as Fertilizer. Yeah.

00:23:53.319 --> 00:23:55.700
You're allowed to do that in California, I think

00:23:55.700 --> 00:23:58.960
Oregon. Yeah. Washington. They have that at Lowe's.

00:23:58.960 --> 00:24:00.460
It's not the same, but it's kind of the same.

00:24:00.500 --> 00:24:02.339
Do they grind them up, or do you just bury the

00:24:02.339 --> 00:24:04.279
body in your shrubs? I'm not really sure how

00:24:04.279 --> 00:24:06.980
that works. I'm thinking either way, that's kind

00:24:06.980 --> 00:24:10.220
of creepy. A little weird. Yeah, you're able

00:24:10.220 --> 00:24:12.180
to do that. If I die, I'd be like, yeah, I want

00:24:12.180 --> 00:24:14.119
to be ground up or whatever they do to it. I

00:24:14.119 --> 00:24:15.599
don't know if I'd want to be ground up. I mean,

00:24:15.619 --> 00:24:17.799
that's just kind of... You're not going to feel

00:24:17.799 --> 00:24:20.220
it. It doesn't matter. I mean, can you imagine

00:24:20.220 --> 00:24:23.319
the person that has to do it? Well, just like

00:24:23.319 --> 00:24:27.700
the... What's your job? Well, just like the funeral

00:24:27.700 --> 00:24:31.480
guy. What do they call those guys? The mortician.

00:24:31.819 --> 00:24:33.920
Yeah, I mean, you get these dead bodies and you're

00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:37.440
cleaning them up and... Embalming them. You're

00:24:37.440 --> 00:24:40.200
draining all of their fluids. Like Quincy? Well,

00:24:40.220 --> 00:24:43.200
no, he was an autopsy. He was a coroner. These

00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:48.180
are the morticians, so like when my dad died,

00:24:48.259 --> 00:24:51.980
they... We didn't embalm him, so we cremated

00:24:51.980 --> 00:24:54.299
him, so they didn't have to do that. But, you

00:24:54.299 --> 00:24:55.940
know, they drain all the fluids, and they put

00:24:55.940 --> 00:24:58.700
the formaldehyde or whatever they use to embalm

00:24:58.700 --> 00:25:01.099
the fluid in the bodies, right? Yeah. And then

00:25:01.099 --> 00:25:03.519
they repair faces if there's been gunshot wounds

00:25:03.519 --> 00:25:05.079
or anything like that, so they have to repair

00:25:05.079 --> 00:25:07.359
their face, put makeup on them, make them look

00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:09.339
presentable. So if there can be an open casket

00:25:09.339 --> 00:25:11.160
and stuff like that, sometimes you can't. Right.

00:25:11.400 --> 00:25:15.440
But, you know, they'll get them all made up so

00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:18.000
they look as normal as possible. Put it that

00:25:18.000 --> 00:25:20.460
way. I would imagine the people that are willing

00:25:20.460 --> 00:25:23.019
to prepare these bodies for people's fertilizer,

00:25:23.259 --> 00:25:26.319
I mean, they... It's probably just like a gynecologist

00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:28.460
looks at a vagina. It's just like, yeah, whatever.

00:25:28.680 --> 00:25:33.099
Yep. Totally. Unless it's just a huge mess down

00:25:33.099 --> 00:25:37.460
there. You're just like, wow. What scenario would

00:25:37.460 --> 00:25:39.859
that be, Jeff? I'm sure they're not all pretty,

00:25:39.960 --> 00:25:41.759
so I'm just saying. And they say that just like...

00:25:41.819 --> 00:25:43.720
God, what do you have going down there? Good

00:25:43.720 --> 00:25:46.559
Lord. What happened to you? What happened to

00:25:46.559 --> 00:25:49.599
you? I would probably pick a new doctor. It's

00:25:49.599 --> 00:25:54.279
humid. It's humid? God, it's so impossibly moist.

00:25:54.559 --> 00:25:56.180
Yeah. But it kind of goes in. Do you still have

00:25:56.180 --> 00:26:00.779
your hymen? Okay. Wow. Okay. Moving right along.

00:26:00.839 --> 00:26:02.160
But that kind of goes into. That's a good start.

00:26:02.420 --> 00:26:05.220
Yeah. But it kind of goes into, because I know

00:26:05.220 --> 00:26:08.359
another topic we've talked about, and we've talked

00:26:08.359 --> 00:26:11.579
about in the past, or sometimes. We all have

00:26:11.579 --> 00:26:14.500
pets at one time in our life, and sometimes we,

00:26:14.599 --> 00:26:18.039
as they get old or sick, or sometimes they just

00:26:18.039 --> 00:26:20.140
run out into the street and die. But you have

00:26:20.140 --> 00:26:23.220
to take care of your pets and euthanize them.

00:26:23.220 --> 00:26:26.460
And the loss of a family member, some folks are

00:26:26.460 --> 00:26:28.299
more attached to their pets than others, and

00:26:28.299 --> 00:26:30.619
it's a difficult process to go through. Oh, yeah.

00:26:31.049 --> 00:26:32.710
For sure. I mean, we've all gone through that.

00:26:32.769 --> 00:26:34.710
I've gone through, what, two, three dogs. Yeah,

00:26:34.750 --> 00:26:37.670
we had a couple. My first one, Julie took because

00:26:37.670 --> 00:26:40.309
I had to go to work. But Julie took Darla and

00:26:40.309 --> 00:26:44.130
put her down. But Lady, the last one, we took

00:26:44.130 --> 00:26:46.029
her. That was a last -minute thing, right? Yeah.

00:26:46.410 --> 00:26:48.650
So she went downhill really fast, and we were

00:26:48.650 --> 00:26:50.269
going out of town. So we had to take her that

00:26:50.269 --> 00:26:54.650
day on a Sunday and put her down. So that's it.

00:26:55.660 --> 00:26:57.859
It's sad because you're in there with them and

00:26:57.859 --> 00:27:00.680
they're on the ground. I don't know if they're

00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:02.819
aware of what's going on. And then they just

00:27:02.819 --> 00:27:05.880
kind of fall asleep and stop breathing. Right.

00:27:06.000 --> 00:27:09.960
And it's difficult. As much of a pain in the

00:27:09.960 --> 00:27:13.539
ass as Lady was at times, she was great with

00:27:13.539 --> 00:27:16.079
me and the family and everything. She was a part

00:27:16.079 --> 00:27:17.380
of the family. But again, I wasn't attached.

00:27:17.599 --> 00:27:19.680
Some of these folks were extremely attached to

00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:22.259
their pets. Oh, yeah. Where they're treated like

00:27:22.259 --> 00:27:25.430
children. And they take them to cardiologists,

00:27:25.589 --> 00:27:28.849
vet cardiologists. A little over the top. I know

00:27:28.849 --> 00:27:31.150
a guy that's basically he's got an aging cat.

00:27:31.369 --> 00:27:34.529
And the cat's really important to he and his

00:27:34.529 --> 00:27:37.910
wife because it was like his mom's cat or his

00:27:37.910 --> 00:27:40.930
wife's mom's cat. So it's a very sentimental

00:27:40.930 --> 00:27:43.829
creature. But, dude, I keep joking with him that

00:27:43.829 --> 00:27:47.210
he's the world's best cat owner because he has

00:27:47.210 --> 00:27:49.829
gone to the cardiologist. They've done surgeries.

00:27:50.130 --> 00:27:52.819
They've done. Breathing treatments. Now, he has

00:27:52.819 --> 00:27:55.859
pet insurance. Right. Right. So that has made

00:27:55.859 --> 00:27:59.019
it somewhat palpable. Right. But I think he's

00:27:59.019 --> 00:28:02.400
seven grand, eight grand. No, no. Forget that.

00:28:02.480 --> 00:28:05.480
I'm sorry. I was like, dude, no way. But it's

00:28:05.480 --> 00:28:08.119
across the board with pet costs. I mean, the

00:28:08.119 --> 00:28:12.119
insurance, the vets, vets charge a ton of money.

00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:15.440
You can't leave a vet's office under 400 bucks

00:28:15.440 --> 00:28:19.119
nowadays. I know. It's insane. And it's the food

00:28:19.119 --> 00:28:21.230
to take care of them. You know, it's like, you

00:28:21.230 --> 00:28:23.529
know, and then, you know, you may be this person

00:28:23.529 --> 00:28:25.990
that goes out and buys a hundred pound bag of

00:28:25.990 --> 00:28:29.170
dog chow for, you know, 30 bucks, you know, and

00:28:29.170 --> 00:28:30.369
it's just like, well, and then they're like,

00:28:30.450 --> 00:28:32.849
well, that's not food. And then you get shamed

00:28:32.849 --> 00:28:35.569
for, you know, feeding them subpar food. Well,

00:28:35.750 --> 00:28:38.930
you know, in our house, we feed the, I don't

00:28:38.930 --> 00:28:41.910
buy it, but from what I understood, we buy expensive

00:28:41.910 --> 00:28:43.890
dog food. Well, it's healthier. It keeps them

00:28:43.890 --> 00:28:46.289
healthier. If you give them bad food. They're

00:28:46.289 --> 00:28:48.829
going to have more health problems. It is true.

00:28:49.069 --> 00:28:51.089
And I'm not sounding like I don't want to make

00:28:51.089 --> 00:28:52.869
that happen. But, I mean, there's just a lot

00:28:52.869 --> 00:28:55.049
of expenses that you don't really sign up for.

00:28:55.150 --> 00:28:57.089
You're kind of like, holy shit. When you get

00:28:57.089 --> 00:29:01.190
an animal, you really need to think about the

00:29:01.190 --> 00:29:03.789
whole process. This isn't just a pet. Oh, I'm

00:29:03.789 --> 00:29:07.460
just going to buy him. Correct. Oh, yeah. You're

00:29:07.460 --> 00:29:10.579
feeding it. Yes. It's the responsibility of a

00:29:10.579 --> 00:29:12.740
child because it is the responsibility because

00:29:12.740 --> 00:29:16.579
you're responsible for it. So if you don't feed

00:29:16.579 --> 00:29:18.819
it, they're going to come after you. If you abuse

00:29:18.819 --> 00:29:21.579
it, they're going to come after you. And it limits

00:29:21.579 --> 00:29:24.740
your ability to go on vacations. You've got to

00:29:24.740 --> 00:29:26.200
think about how you're going to board the dog,

00:29:26.279 --> 00:29:28.299
and that's expensive. And I hear all the stories

00:29:28.299 --> 00:29:30.259
all the time. Yeah, I can't leave my dog alone

00:29:30.259 --> 00:29:33.119
that long, so I can't go. Well, we've made the

00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:35.720
conscious effort after Lady. We're like, okay,

00:29:35.799 --> 00:29:39.160
this was emotionally tough. And now that we're

00:29:39.160 --> 00:29:41.119
empty nesters, we're like, well, we want to have

00:29:41.119 --> 00:29:43.160
the ability to just get up and leave whenever

00:29:43.160 --> 00:29:45.099
we want. Not have to worry about a dog. Be naked

00:29:45.099 --> 00:29:47.579
all day long and not be licked again. Noses up

00:29:47.579 --> 00:29:49.839
under the scrote or anything like that. Exactly.

00:29:50.339 --> 00:29:52.279
Decrease the amount of peanut butter you're purchasing

00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:54.839
every month. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. So we made

00:29:54.839 --> 00:29:56.759
that consciousness. And it's been nice. I miss

00:29:56.759 --> 00:29:59.740
having a dog. I miss the companionship, especially

00:29:59.740 --> 00:30:01.539
when I was working, right? She would hang out

00:30:01.539 --> 00:30:03.079
with me in the office all day. Yeah, of course.

00:30:03.539 --> 00:30:08.700
But now, you know, I like it better now that

00:30:08.700 --> 00:30:10.200
we don't have one because you're not dealing

00:30:10.200 --> 00:30:13.380
with all of the stuff. Yes, I know. That you're

00:30:13.380 --> 00:30:14.960
having to deal with. We have a puppy in the house

00:30:14.960 --> 00:30:16.640
right now. We've got our two dogs and now this

00:30:16.640 --> 00:30:20.240
puppy, and it's driving us crazy. Right. Well,

00:30:20.279 --> 00:30:23.789
especially when they're... The dog that you got,

00:30:23.869 --> 00:30:27.029
the puppy, it was potty trained. And all of a

00:30:27.029 --> 00:30:31.549
sudden it has amnesia. Oh, my God. How do you

00:30:31.549 --> 00:30:33.670
say that? Amnesia. What the hell is going on

00:30:33.670 --> 00:30:36.069
with my brain? Yeah. Amnesia. And the dog can't

00:30:36.069 --> 00:30:38.430
remember what the fuck. It's like, I don't get

00:30:38.430 --> 00:30:40.990
it. It's struggling. It's still peeing everywhere.

00:30:41.250 --> 00:30:43.490
I don't know if it's anger issues. Now, you got

00:30:43.490 --> 00:30:45.589
to remember that dog is picked up off the streets.

00:30:46.170 --> 00:30:49.109
And it's got psychological issues. Maybe it's

00:30:49.109 --> 00:30:51.589
the fact that it's with two dogs. And maybe it's

00:30:51.589 --> 00:30:53.950
like, I need to get my scent everywhere. All

00:30:53.950 --> 00:30:55.549
I smell are these other dogs. Let me pee and

00:30:55.549 --> 00:30:57.029
spray everywhere. You know, if I saw it going

00:30:57.029 --> 00:30:59.650
around sniffing, marking kind of thing, yes.

00:30:59.769 --> 00:31:03.049
But no. She just drops down. Yeah. Like this

00:31:03.049 --> 00:31:04.569
morning, I was like, you know, watching Ripley

00:31:04.569 --> 00:31:06.630
eat her food. Make sure they don't eat each other's

00:31:06.630 --> 00:31:08.150
food and shit like that. Right. So I'm sitting

00:31:08.150 --> 00:31:10.230
there watching. And then she leaves her bowl.

00:31:10.390 --> 00:31:11.970
And I'm like, she's over my shoulder. And I'm

00:31:11.970 --> 00:31:13.750
like, OK, well, I'm like, wait a second. I turn

00:31:13.750 --> 00:31:16.130
around. She's shitting in my living room. I'm

00:31:16.130 --> 00:31:17.450
like, oh, no, no, no, no. We're not doing that.

00:31:17.630 --> 00:31:19.250
We're not doing that. Who is this? Astrid? Yeah.

00:31:19.349 --> 00:31:21.309
Started shitting right in front of me this morning

00:31:21.309 --> 00:31:22.910
in my living room. And I was like, no, no. And

00:31:22.910 --> 00:31:24.829
so one falls out and she starts jumping away

00:31:24.829 --> 00:31:26.589
from me. Another one falls out. And then she's

00:31:26.589 --> 00:31:28.049
like scampering away. And I'm like, no, no, no.

00:31:28.089 --> 00:31:29.410
You go outside for that. You know what I mean?

00:31:29.450 --> 00:31:31.410
That's just a power move. Yeah. Is that what

00:31:31.410 --> 00:31:33.410
it is? Yeah. Did she still have the poop hunch

00:31:33.410 --> 00:31:34.670
that she was trying to get away with the hunch

00:31:34.670 --> 00:31:36.329
going and everything? Yeah, she was. She was

00:31:36.329 --> 00:31:38.369
trying to pinch it off because she got scared

00:31:38.369 --> 00:31:41.289
that I was yelling at her. Yeah, it was not fun.

00:31:41.529 --> 00:31:44.509
It was not fun. Maybe you ought to revert to

00:31:44.509 --> 00:31:49.789
commands like outside. Oh, yeah, okay. What do

00:31:49.789 --> 00:31:51.650
you think? Of course I'm doing that. I don't

00:31:51.650 --> 00:31:54.630
know. I don't know. I know that when I'm over

00:31:54.630 --> 00:31:59.509
there, I've heard the commands that happen when

00:31:59.509 --> 00:32:01.109
the dogs do something you don't want, and instead

00:32:01.109 --> 00:32:03.869
of commanding them, you guys are kind of, hey,

00:32:03.890 --> 00:32:06.130
look, I'm guilty of it too. This is coming from

00:32:06.130 --> 00:32:07.950
a dog expert trainer, right? You don't have to

00:32:07.950 --> 00:32:10.650
be an expert. You know, when you sit there and

00:32:10.650 --> 00:32:12.829
yell at the dog, especially a puppy, the dogs

00:32:12.829 --> 00:32:14.210
don't know. They're just like, oh, my God, he's

00:32:14.210 --> 00:32:17.049
just yelling at me. No, you say no outside. Yeah.

00:32:17.289 --> 00:32:20.430
Which is what I said. All right. Oh, okay. There

00:32:20.430 --> 00:32:23.349
you go. Anyway, it's crazy because it's just,

00:32:23.410 --> 00:32:25.069
you know, you can't leave the dog alone for that

00:32:25.069 --> 00:32:26.950
long. You got to leave it in the crate. I hang

00:32:26.950 --> 00:32:32.049
out with Wes. Did you know that? Yeah. Anyway.

00:32:32.309 --> 00:32:34.289
He's taught me a bunch. There was one interesting

00:32:34.289 --> 00:32:36.759
thing I thought about. I like the whisper. there's

00:32:36.759 --> 00:32:39.099
this guy that has been walking around our neighborhood

00:32:39.099 --> 00:32:41.819
for years. And it's like this kind of, he looks

00:32:41.819 --> 00:32:43.279
like this grouchy old man, because I've never

00:32:43.279 --> 00:32:45.519
met him. And he's got this Rottweiler. And the

00:32:45.519 --> 00:32:47.400
Rottweiler's like perfectly trained, walking

00:32:47.400 --> 00:32:50.000
right next to him, you know. And they just do

00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:52.619
this very serious walk. And I wave, and he kind

00:32:52.619 --> 00:32:54.759
of lifts his head at me, you know. He's not all

00:32:54.759 --> 00:32:56.400
that interested in being social, I can tell.

00:32:56.660 --> 00:32:59.960
Anyway, so for years, just whatever. You know

00:32:59.960 --> 00:33:01.299
how when you walk your dogs, you avoid each other

00:33:01.299 --> 00:33:02.900
anyway. You cross the street and all that kind

00:33:02.900 --> 00:33:05.859
of stuff. Well, the other day, I saw him walking.

00:33:06.269 --> 00:33:09.470
A baby Watt Waller. Ah. So obviously his dog

00:33:09.470 --> 00:33:12.170
passed. Right. And here he is with a baby Watt

00:33:12.170 --> 00:33:14.390
Waller starting all over from scratch. And it

00:33:14.390 --> 00:33:15.710
was kind of, you know, pulling him left around.

00:33:15.809 --> 00:33:17.410
He was like, you know, pulling it right next

00:33:17.410 --> 00:33:19.329
to him, you know. It was just cool. I mean, I

00:33:19.329 --> 00:33:21.369
felt bad for him because obviously he lost. Right.

00:33:21.549 --> 00:33:23.910
Obviously he lost a friend. Right. You know what

00:33:23.910 --> 00:33:26.329
I mean? But that's what you do. You get a younger

00:33:26.329 --> 00:33:28.750
dog. You don't have to get a puppy, but you can

00:33:28.750 --> 00:33:31.509
get a younger rescue dog, you know, that's hopefully

00:33:31.509 --> 00:33:35.440
been potty trained. So Preston, my son Preston,

00:33:35.440 --> 00:33:39.519
his girlfriend gets these dogs from, I don't

00:33:39.519 --> 00:33:41.140
know, where do they get them? Pound, I guess?

00:33:41.339 --> 00:33:44.480
Their foster. Yeah, she fosters them. So she'll

00:33:44.480 --> 00:33:48.859
grab one, two, or three dogs at a time because

00:33:48.859 --> 00:33:51.099
they already have two large dogs. And then they

00:33:51.099 --> 00:33:54.059
get these foster dogs, and I don't know how she

00:33:54.059 --> 00:33:56.259
does it. I don't have that emotional energy,

00:33:56.359 --> 00:33:58.920
but she does. And she will love on those dogs

00:33:58.920 --> 00:34:02.009
and train them. Yeah, it's a lot of work. It

00:34:02.009 --> 00:34:05.549
is. Yeah, but I mean, she's got a system. Yeah,

00:34:05.630 --> 00:34:09.090
kudos to her. And it works. I don't know. It's

00:34:09.090 --> 00:34:11.530
got to be frustrating. You've got to be very

00:34:11.530 --> 00:34:16.010
firm. Yes. And consistent. For sure. And you

00:34:16.010 --> 00:34:18.730
have to watch them constantly. You can't let

00:34:18.730 --> 00:34:20.690
them just roam. Right. You've got to follow them

00:34:20.690 --> 00:34:22.110
around. Oh, it looks like they're about to pee.

00:34:22.150 --> 00:34:24.429
No, no, no, outside. I think it's fascinating.

00:34:25.829 --> 00:34:29.630
My brother -in -law has a service dog. I think

00:34:29.630 --> 00:34:31.630
it's fascinating because it takes a couple years

00:34:31.630 --> 00:34:34.050
to get these dogs ready for this. Oh, I bet.

00:34:34.110 --> 00:34:36.349
They go through a shit ton of training to be

00:34:36.349 --> 00:34:39.750
able to recognize whatever they're trained to

00:34:39.750 --> 00:34:41.429
recognize. Yeah, and they can never have freak

00:34:41.429 --> 00:34:46.090
out moments. Nope. But what's interesting, the

00:34:46.090 --> 00:34:51.030
dog is 100 % behaved at all times. But it knows

00:34:51.030 --> 00:34:53.449
the difference of when it's on the job and when

00:34:53.449 --> 00:34:55.630
it's not. That's interesting. Because when he

00:34:55.630 --> 00:34:58.489
has his vest on. He is a different dog. When

00:34:58.489 --> 00:35:01.150
he takes the vest off, he's a dog just playing.

00:35:01.449 --> 00:35:04.070
Oh, that's cool. So they're like, he goes, he

00:35:04.070 --> 00:35:05.969
knows. So the training goes down to even that

00:35:05.969 --> 00:35:08.429
level of wearing the vest or not. Yep. So when

00:35:08.429 --> 00:35:12.969
the vest is on, he is locked in. And he does

00:35:12.969 --> 00:35:15.210
everything. You can walk him, though, leash.

00:35:15.630 --> 00:35:20.150
He's 100 % trained. Nice. But it takes years

00:35:20.150 --> 00:35:22.630
for that to happen. Yeah. Not much training.

00:35:23.130 --> 00:35:25.269
Well, it's probably similar to police dogs and

00:35:25.269 --> 00:35:27.929
military dogs. Oh, yeah. I mean, a shit ton of

00:35:27.929 --> 00:35:30.849
training. But I've never seen, I wonder what

00:35:30.849 --> 00:35:32.949
the training regimen is for something like that.

00:35:33.610 --> 00:35:35.110
I don't know. You know, I don't even know how

00:35:35.110 --> 00:35:37.289
you would even approach that. But there has to

00:35:37.289 --> 00:35:39.909
be a recipe or a format because people do it

00:35:39.909 --> 00:35:43.090
all the time. Well, there's also professionals

00:35:43.090 --> 00:35:44.929
that do it. That's what I mean. It's a professional

00:35:44.929 --> 00:35:47.190
company that does this. Like, if you did nothing

00:35:47.190 --> 00:35:50.139
but train dogs all day long. then I think it

00:35:50.139 --> 00:35:52.780
would be easier. He has no Larry Hokai, right?

00:35:52.920 --> 00:35:55.719
Yeah, yeah. His sister, that's what she does

00:35:55.719 --> 00:36:00.619
for a living. Nice. She trains dogs for, I don't

00:36:00.619 --> 00:36:04.920
remember exactly, is it for blind people or for

00:36:04.920 --> 00:36:07.139
special needs? I don't know if they've got the

00:36:07.139 --> 00:36:08.539
diabetes and they can recognize it. Oh, they

00:36:08.539 --> 00:36:10.280
smell. Yeah, they can smell when they're going

00:36:10.280 --> 00:36:11.639
to have a fit. There's a specialized training

00:36:11.639 --> 00:36:14.320
that she does. She, that's what she does. She

00:36:14.320 --> 00:36:16.659
will have them for six months at a time or, you

00:36:16.659 --> 00:36:18.619
know, three months, six months, nine months until

00:36:18.619 --> 00:36:20.960
they get them up to a certain point. And then

00:36:20.960 --> 00:36:23.260
she relinquishes them. And, you know, it may

00:36:23.260 --> 00:36:28.320
cost, I think she said maybe $50 ,000 to train

00:36:28.320 --> 00:36:30.900
for that. But look, you got to think of the value

00:36:30.900 --> 00:36:34.699
of that. When someone that has an issue and they

00:36:34.699 --> 00:36:37.679
need a dog. That's going to help them. It's going

00:36:37.679 --> 00:36:41.320
to create a huge better quality of life. I bet

00:36:41.320 --> 00:36:43.380
you if she were on the podcast, she would share

00:36:43.380 --> 00:36:45.659
so many things that we would find fascinating

00:36:45.659 --> 00:36:49.639
about that whole process and how smart they are

00:36:49.639 --> 00:36:52.519
and how the training goes. Right. That would

00:36:52.519 --> 00:36:54.619
be super cool. Yeah. Especially when it comes

00:36:54.619 --> 00:36:57.480
to military dogs. I mean, think about what they

00:36:57.480 --> 00:37:00.099
do. There's Belgian Malinois that they're like.

00:37:00.349 --> 00:37:03.690
In the war with them. Some autism service dogs.

00:37:03.789 --> 00:37:06.809
There you go. There's dogs that are designed

00:37:06.809 --> 00:37:08.829
for when you have seizures. They'll lay on your

00:37:08.829 --> 00:37:11.730
body to prevent you from rolling and hitting

00:37:11.730 --> 00:37:14.469
something and hitting your head. That's insane.

00:37:14.710 --> 00:37:19.030
I know that on the bus they said you may have

00:37:19.030 --> 00:37:21.889
a student with a service dog come on with it.

00:37:22.409 --> 00:37:25.949
I haven't, but it's happened in the past. Yeah,

00:37:25.949 --> 00:37:30.800
sure. Some of these dogs are super smart. I see

00:37:30.800 --> 00:37:36.980
more of the mutts on these different shows that

00:37:36.980 --> 00:37:41.179
can do the training course where they can run

00:37:41.179 --> 00:37:44.860
up the ladders and jump over the slides. They

00:37:44.860 --> 00:37:46.539
look like show dogs, right? Yeah, these guys

00:37:46.539 --> 00:37:48.880
are crazy. Just the different shit they can do

00:37:48.880 --> 00:37:52.340
and how high they can jump. The Belton, the Malinois,

00:37:52.599 --> 00:37:54.760
I think that's how you say it. I've seen the

00:37:54.760 --> 00:37:57.559
footage where part of the competition is they

00:37:57.559 --> 00:38:00.320
run up the side of a wall. Oh, nice. Right? So

00:38:00.320 --> 00:38:01.719
they'll jump up and they'll run up the side of

00:38:01.719 --> 00:38:03.500
the wall. They'll have it marked with inches

00:38:03.500 --> 00:38:06.699
and feet, right? And they'll have this rabbit

00:38:06.699 --> 00:38:08.840
or toy hanging up there 20 feet up in the air.

00:38:08.920 --> 00:38:10.380
And this thing's running up the side of the wall.

00:38:10.940 --> 00:38:12.820
And then when it gets close, it'll leap off,

00:38:12.940 --> 00:38:15.519
grab it in its mouth, and then the trainer's

00:38:15.519 --> 00:38:19.260
down there to catch him. Wow. And there's footage

00:38:19.260 --> 00:38:22.659
out there of this. Let's see if this is it. Yeah,

00:38:22.679 --> 00:38:24.559
there we are. Yeah, this guy's going to do it.

00:38:24.559 --> 00:38:29.750
Well, this is a little bit different. Oh, this

00:38:29.750 --> 00:38:32.070
is to get over the wall. Oh, no. He's going to

00:38:32.070 --> 00:38:33.909
catch this. Oh, there we go. So there's something

00:38:33.909 --> 00:38:36.110
hanging up there. Look at that. That's fucking

00:38:36.110 --> 00:38:40.670
crazy. How do you even start the training process

00:38:40.670 --> 00:38:44.590
for that? Well, just lower, I guess. He lands

00:38:44.590 --> 00:38:48.150
right in his owner's arms. That is crazy. The

00:38:48.150 --> 00:38:50.019
dog probably loves it. He's probably like, this

00:38:50.019 --> 00:38:51.480
is fucking great. Put it up there again. Put

00:38:51.480 --> 00:38:52.840
it up there again. Oh, yeah. This is fucking

00:38:52.840 --> 00:38:58.699
awesome. Yeah, that's crazy. There's that red

00:38:58.699 --> 00:39:01.219
thing there where they're measuring it. If only

00:39:01.219 --> 00:39:04.500
they could open a can of Coke, open a bourbon

00:39:04.500 --> 00:39:07.400
bottle. Yeah. Hey, go give me some. Mix a drink.

00:39:07.719 --> 00:39:09.559
Give me some Triscuits in an old -fashioned.

00:39:09.739 --> 00:39:12.860
Yeah. Wouldn't that be cool? We can't find any

00:39:12.860 --> 00:39:15.440
cool dogs like that. Well, give it time. Get

00:39:15.440 --> 00:39:19.099
one of those. Oh, can a melon walk? No. No, thank

00:39:19.099 --> 00:39:21.179
you. There's some dogs. And I don't know if it's

00:39:21.179 --> 00:39:23.679
real or not. There are memes out there where

00:39:23.679 --> 00:39:27.780
you have these plastic buttons on the floor that

00:39:27.780 --> 00:39:30.039
when you push a button. Oh, they say words. They

00:39:30.039 --> 00:39:32.840
have words. And the dog will go up there and

00:39:32.840 --> 00:39:35.139
push the buttons. And I don't know if it's true

00:39:35.139 --> 00:39:38.099
and they're just faking it. But if it is true

00:39:38.099 --> 00:39:40.260
and some of the stuff that they're able to do,

00:39:40.360 --> 00:39:43.599
that is crazy. You know? So it goes, treat, treat.

00:39:43.739 --> 00:39:48.139
And you go, no, asshole, asshole. Yeah, outside,

00:39:48.539 --> 00:39:50.619
outside. You know, I think that's great. Fuck

00:39:50.619 --> 00:39:54.179
you. I think it's cool. And there was a bird.

00:39:55.099 --> 00:39:58.659
There was a bird. I heard this last night. I

00:39:58.659 --> 00:40:02.840
was in bed with my CPAP machine on, and I spent

00:40:02.840 --> 00:40:04.920
the last five minutes of my 30 -minute limit

00:40:04.920 --> 00:40:11.719
on Instagram. And I see this parrot. And the

00:40:11.719 --> 00:40:14.039
owner of it, the parrot is making fart noises.

00:40:14.300 --> 00:40:18.139
Oh, no. You know, and they're in bed and they're

00:40:18.139 --> 00:40:22.500
sleeping. And then you hear the parrot. And she

00:40:22.500 --> 00:40:25.940
says, stop making that noise. And it keeps making

00:40:25.940 --> 00:40:28.860
another variety of farts. Totally being noncompliant.

00:40:28.960 --> 00:40:31.719
It was funny as hell. I had to laugh out loud

00:40:31.719 --> 00:40:34.780
at that. Yeah, parrots are wild too, man. Those

00:40:34.780 --> 00:40:37.579
last. Older than you. Those birds, some of those

00:40:37.579 --> 00:40:40.159
will last like 90 to 100 years. So that's a pet

00:40:40.159 --> 00:40:42.360
for life if you get one of those. A parrot, huh?

00:40:42.820 --> 00:40:45.380
The parrot, those birds, yeah. I wonder if that

00:40:45.380 --> 00:40:49.739
Russian guy from Iron Man 2 was so upset when

00:40:49.739 --> 00:40:52.239
his cockatoo was taken from him when he went

00:40:52.239 --> 00:40:55.039
to jail. I want my cockatoo. I want my bird.

00:40:55.059 --> 00:40:58.500
So the kikapoo lasts, let's say, 60 years. Cockatoos,

00:40:58.559 --> 00:41:02.539
40 to 60 years. Damn. So they live a very long

00:41:02.539 --> 00:41:04.219
time. And you don't have to walk them when it's

00:41:04.219 --> 00:41:09.510
100 degrees. Wow. Isn't that a big bonus? I mean,

00:41:09.590 --> 00:41:12.449
I'm sure they fly, right? No, they clip their

00:41:12.449 --> 00:41:14.429
wings. Yeah, they clip so they can't fly. That

00:41:14.429 --> 00:41:17.630
kind of sucks. Yeah, it seems kind of inhumane.

00:41:17.889 --> 00:41:20.050
You know, I wonder if you don't. Maybe it's kind

00:41:20.050 --> 00:41:22.150
of like rabbits don't fly and break their necks.

00:41:22.170 --> 00:41:25.969
I had a friend who had like three or four, what

00:41:25.969 --> 00:41:28.530
are the small ones? Parakeets? Yeah. Canaries

00:41:28.530 --> 00:41:31.150
or whatever they are. And he had maybe up to

00:41:31.150 --> 00:41:35.820
five or six of them. And he had a... They flew

00:41:35.820 --> 00:41:40.559
in his room. And he was his only child, so he

00:41:40.559 --> 00:41:42.900
had basically two rooms with a doorway in between.

00:41:43.380 --> 00:41:46.400
And he had a little perch on one side and a perch

00:41:46.400 --> 00:41:48.539
on the other side, and they'd fly back and forth

00:41:48.539 --> 00:41:51.760
while he's just, you're just in there. He's got

00:41:51.760 --> 00:41:53.480
these birds flying back and forth. Just shitting

00:41:53.480 --> 00:41:56.739
all over his room. Probably. Hmm. Yeah. Isn't

00:41:56.739 --> 00:41:58.400
Canary's the one that they put in a cage and

00:41:58.400 --> 00:42:00.699
then they... Leave it in the mine to make sure

00:42:00.699 --> 00:42:03.300
it's safe. Yeah, if it dies. Then they know they

00:42:03.300 --> 00:42:05.900
can't go down there. Yeah, there's gas. Well,

00:42:07.340 --> 00:42:10.300
that, I think it's lack of oxygen, maybe. Yeah,

00:42:10.340 --> 00:42:13.320
I don't know. Or buildup of carbon dioxide. I

00:42:13.320 --> 00:42:15.760
thought it was, well, probably any of the above.

00:42:15.760 --> 00:42:17.380
It could be any scenario where it's not safe

00:42:17.380 --> 00:42:20.739
to breathe. Canary's dead. Let's go. No. Oh,

00:42:20.760 --> 00:42:23.940
yeah. Yeah, leave. I don't care why. It's dead.

00:42:24.079 --> 00:42:26.079
I think you're misunderstanding. It's dead. Let's

00:42:26.079 --> 00:42:29.719
go down there, guys. But why? Is it no oxygen?

00:42:29.920 --> 00:42:33.179
Is it gas? It doesn't matter. It's dead. Speaking

00:42:33.179 --> 00:42:37.059
of gas and canaries, remember that show WKRP

00:42:37.059 --> 00:42:39.300
in Cincinnati? I watched it every week. Yeah,

00:42:39.380 --> 00:42:42.000
WKRP. How was it? Was it a go -to for you? It

00:42:42.000 --> 00:42:44.880
was, because I lived in Cincinnati, so we were

00:42:44.880 --> 00:42:48.230
like, let's watch it. We're there. I remember

00:42:48.230 --> 00:42:51.670
Les Nesman, the reporter, the on -site reporter,

00:42:51.989 --> 00:42:56.949
Thanksgiving. And it's the turkeys being tossed

00:42:56.949 --> 00:43:00.449
out of the helicopter. It's horrific. The humanity

00:43:00.449 --> 00:43:06.309
of it all. Oh, the humanity. The turkeys are

00:43:06.309 --> 00:43:08.070
hitting the ground like sacks of wet cement.

00:43:08.369 --> 00:43:10.789
Let's hear the theme song. I think it's one of

00:43:10.789 --> 00:43:13.030
the great theme songs that was out there. Come

00:43:13.030 --> 00:43:18.750
and knock on my door. That's the wrong one. Oh,

00:43:18.789 --> 00:43:21.389
I love this song. You know, I enjoyed this. I

00:43:21.389 --> 00:43:22.670
look forward to listening to this song. I've

00:43:22.670 --> 00:43:25.050
never seen it. Really? Lonnie Anderson was the

00:43:25.050 --> 00:43:27.670
hot, bubbly, blonde chick with big boobies. And

00:43:27.670 --> 00:43:30.050
then you had Bayley, who everyone desired because

00:43:30.050 --> 00:43:32.650
she was the sleeper in the group. She's the one

00:43:32.650 --> 00:43:40.829
you would marry. Yeah, Bayley. Nice. And now

00:43:40.829 --> 00:43:42.670
look what it is. There's fights in the street.

00:43:42.929 --> 00:43:46.789
I know. It's gone to shit since this show. Yeah.

00:43:46.869 --> 00:43:49.550
So, yeah, we watched it every week. And, you

00:43:49.550 --> 00:43:51.630
know, Cincinnati used to look like that. And

00:43:51.630 --> 00:43:54.070
Lonnie has passed away this week. She has. That's

00:43:54.070 --> 00:43:56.530
great. Was she actually married to Burt Reynolds?

00:43:56.630 --> 00:43:59.070
Yes. She was married to him. He passed away in

00:43:59.070 --> 00:44:02.010
2005 or something like that. You didn't really

00:44:02.010 --> 00:44:04.269
hear much about her. I mean, she kind of lived

00:44:04.269 --> 00:44:06.889
a quiet life. Yeah. She was juggy from what I

00:44:06.889 --> 00:44:10.230
remember. What do you mean? Yeah. Outside. Although,

00:44:10.269 --> 00:44:13.840
I think once WKIP went off the air. I don't think

00:44:13.840 --> 00:44:16.280
I saw her again. Yeah, that's a good point. I

00:44:16.280 --> 00:44:18.360
don't think I saw her in a different show. Yeah.

00:44:19.079 --> 00:44:21.219
Look up Lonnie Anderson on Wikipedia. I'm kind

00:44:21.219 --> 00:44:23.400
of curious. What did she do? Look at that hair.

00:44:23.659 --> 00:44:25.579
How much hairspray do you think was in that?

00:44:25.760 --> 00:44:28.599
A lot. That might have killed her. Oh, shit.

00:44:28.960 --> 00:44:33.219
God. Oh, look at that. She's a pretty lady. Oh,

00:44:33.239 --> 00:44:37.260
yeah. Yeah, she was pretty. Absolutely. And she

00:44:37.260 --> 00:44:40.480
lived at the Roxbury? I guess she did a cameo

00:44:40.480 --> 00:44:42.860
there. How old was she? She did a voice for All

00:44:42.860 --> 00:44:46.119
Dogs Go to Heaven. My Sister is So Gay. What?

00:44:46.280 --> 00:44:51.760
What? What? What? It's a TV series. She must

00:44:51.760 --> 00:44:55.119
be happy. Yeah, she was in it for 13 episodes.

00:44:55.579 --> 00:44:57.760
Wow. You're going to add it to your list. Ladies

00:44:57.760 --> 00:45:01.199
of the 80s. Of course she is. The Mullets. I

00:45:01.199 --> 00:45:03.659
haven't heard of any of these. Not at the Roxbury.

00:45:03.699 --> 00:45:05.929
I've heard of that. I wonder if she just did

00:45:05.929 --> 00:45:08.570
a cameo on them or if she was on Clueless, I

00:45:08.570 --> 00:45:11.210
guess. Yeah, a lot of these were one episode.

00:45:11.630 --> 00:45:15.730
Yeah, they're probably, like you said, cameos

00:45:15.730 --> 00:45:17.670
or one -offs when she needed a little bit of

00:45:17.670 --> 00:45:22.530
money. Look, she's got quite the rep here. I

00:45:22.530 --> 00:45:25.650
mean, she's been on tons and tons of shows. Who

00:45:25.650 --> 00:45:27.989
cares? I mean, she was probably loaded because

00:45:27.989 --> 00:45:30.570
she was married to Burt Reynolds. You know, she

00:45:30.570 --> 00:45:34.429
lived life great. She's beautiful. Yeah. She

00:45:34.429 --> 00:45:36.449
had a bubbly attitude. She got along. That was

00:45:36.449 --> 00:45:40.929
four years, the WKRP in Cincinnati. Four years

00:45:40.929 --> 00:45:47.150
of five, whichever. Six. No. And the Love Boat.

00:45:47.170 --> 00:45:49.530
Five. We're bad fleets here. God, look at that.

00:45:49.570 --> 00:45:51.750
Well, you know, you never know to include one

00:45:51.750 --> 00:45:55.139
of the weird, right? The Incredible Hulk. She

00:45:55.139 --> 00:45:59.000
was big in the late 70s, early 80s is when her

00:45:59.000 --> 00:46:01.519
prime time was. Barnaby Jones. Yeah, she might

00:46:01.519 --> 00:46:03.340
have made a decision just to kind of stay out

00:46:03.340 --> 00:46:04.840
of the limelight. There's nothing wrong with

00:46:04.840 --> 00:46:06.599
that. Did she have any kids with Burt or did

00:46:06.599 --> 00:46:09.400
she have any kids with other dudes? I don't know.

00:46:10.460 --> 00:46:12.539
Maybe she decided, all right, I'm done. I'm raising

00:46:12.539 --> 00:46:15.260
my family. Yeah, a lot of them do that. Yeah.

00:46:16.099 --> 00:46:19.400
Quentin Anderson Reynolds and Deirdre Hoffman.

00:46:19.840 --> 00:46:22.119
There we go. It says her family all about the

00:46:22.119 --> 00:46:25.960
late actresses something. All right. Two children.

00:46:26.340 --> 00:46:30.019
Okay. I don't know. I'd be interested if she

00:46:30.019 --> 00:46:33.619
just kind of chose to stay out of the limelight

00:46:33.619 --> 00:46:36.780
for the most part. Anyway, she was a lovely lady.

00:46:36.980 --> 00:46:40.960
How old was she? She was 80, wasn't she? Did

00:46:40.960 --> 00:46:43.960
I say 90? Just shy of 80. 1945. Yeah, her birthday

00:46:43.960 --> 00:46:46.460
was like two or three days after she passed away.

00:46:46.820 --> 00:46:52.769
Yeah. Yeah. She was married to... Burt Reynolds.

00:46:52.829 --> 00:46:57.730
Bruce Hasselberg, then Ross Bickle, then Burt

00:46:57.730 --> 00:47:02.050
Reynolds, and then Bob Flick until 2008. Oh,

00:47:02.050 --> 00:47:06.630
wow. So four husbands. That's not atypical for

00:47:06.630 --> 00:47:09.409
these Hollywood people to have three or four

00:47:09.409 --> 00:47:12.210
marriages. I always think, why does a Hollywood

00:47:12.210 --> 00:47:14.250
person marry another Hollywood person? I get

00:47:14.250 --> 00:47:18.090
it because they're in the same realm, but I would

00:47:18.090 --> 00:47:22.110
think... If you married outside of that, it may

00:47:22.110 --> 00:47:24.409
fare better. Maybe not because maybe there's

00:47:24.409 --> 00:47:28.230
jealousy and shit going on. They still have to

00:47:28.230 --> 00:47:31.210
be a power person. Like they have to be a CEO

00:47:31.210 --> 00:47:34.769
of something. But imagine that. She died of 79

00:47:34.769 --> 00:47:37.630
years old. So, I mean, you got to think about,

00:47:37.750 --> 00:47:41.289
she probably, I don't know, I'm not, she probably

00:47:41.289 --> 00:47:42.989
kept herself healthy. It's her birthday today.

00:47:43.690 --> 00:47:46.349
Today? Yeah. Well, shoot, she's just really.

00:47:46.909 --> 00:47:49.730
I mean, she died August 3rd, so that's... It's

00:47:49.730 --> 00:47:52.449
two days. So, I mean, let's say she's 80. I mean,

00:47:52.469 --> 00:47:57.489
that is literally 25 years left for our lives.

00:47:57.650 --> 00:47:59.869
She took care of herself. You know, I'm not saying

00:47:59.869 --> 00:48:01.730
we don't take care of ourselves, but she was

00:48:01.730 --> 00:48:04.170
looking pretty healthy. Scroll down a second

00:48:04.170 --> 00:48:07.349
there, Mr. Producer. It says she auditioned for

00:48:07.349 --> 00:48:09.530
the role of Chrissy on the sitcom Three's Company.

00:48:09.750 --> 00:48:12.369
Look at that. She did not get the role. I think

00:48:12.369 --> 00:48:15.949
they chose correctly. I think so, too. Yeah,

00:48:15.989 --> 00:48:22.369
it would have ruined her look because I don't

00:48:22.369 --> 00:48:27.550
think she was an airhead on WKRP. I think she

00:48:27.550 --> 00:48:29.510
was one of those smart airhead things, right?

00:48:29.610 --> 00:48:31.929
Where she was kind of flighty, but she kept the

00:48:31.929 --> 00:48:34.250
office running kind of a thing. Right. You know?

00:48:35.090 --> 00:48:36.789
You know, the interesting thing is that's the

00:48:36.789 --> 00:48:40.449
only significant death I know of in the last...

00:48:40.449 --> 00:48:43.659
We went through this... three, four, five, six

00:48:43.659 --> 00:48:45.699
of them, right, in the last podcast we did? Yeah.

00:48:45.840 --> 00:48:47.659
And she's kind of the only one that I've heard

00:48:47.659 --> 00:48:49.880
about this week or in the last two weeks. Yeah,

00:48:49.900 --> 00:48:51.579
there was one last, it was Brian Sandberg last

00:48:51.579 --> 00:48:54.280
week and then Lonnie this week. Lonnie Anderson,

00:48:54.519 --> 00:48:57.260
yeah. We still have one more shoe to drop. I

00:48:57.260 --> 00:48:59.239
guess. Well, rest in peace, Lonnie Anderson.

00:48:59.739 --> 00:49:02.719
Yeah, you know, and I guess it's just going to

00:49:02.719 --> 00:49:05.599
continue. The beat goes on. I think what's going

00:49:05.599 --> 00:49:07.340
to start happening is, you know, all the bands

00:49:07.340 --> 00:49:09.360
that we grew up listening to, they're all dying

00:49:09.360 --> 00:49:10.880
off. They're all going to start dying off. They

00:49:10.880 --> 00:49:13.510
are. It's sick. It's horrible. You know, the

00:49:13.510 --> 00:49:15.469
Eagles are starting to die off. Len Fry died.

00:49:15.570 --> 00:49:17.550
He died young, though. Beach Boys. The Beach

00:49:17.550 --> 00:49:20.010
Boys. Well, they're even before us. One of them

00:49:20.010 --> 00:49:22.889
died recently. Well, yeah, Brian Wilson. But

00:49:22.889 --> 00:49:26.590
I think there's only one original Beach Boy left.

00:49:26.869 --> 00:49:29.289
Right. But, you know, all of them. You know,

00:49:29.389 --> 00:49:33.210
they're starting to die off in ACDC. I think

00:49:33.210 --> 00:49:36.010
Led Zeppelin, they're getting really old. Aerosmith,

00:49:36.110 --> 00:49:39.130
they're up in their 70s now. They're highlandering

00:49:39.130 --> 00:49:41.699
each other. There can be only one. Yes. Right?

00:49:42.000 --> 00:49:43.500
Yeah, there's going to be only one band left.

00:49:43.659 --> 00:49:46.260
Keith Richards with just lightning bolts shooting

00:49:46.260 --> 00:49:50.960
out of his hands. Yes. So Led Zeppelin, we watched

00:49:50.960 --> 00:49:53.340
the Becoming Led Zeppelin documentary. I don't

00:49:53.340 --> 00:49:54.659
know if you guys have seen that. See, I don't

00:49:54.659 --> 00:49:57.079
know much about Led Zeppelin at all. I had no

00:49:57.079 --> 00:49:59.719
idea that Jimmy Page was basically the ringleader

00:49:59.719 --> 00:50:02.340
of that band. I didn't know that. Yep. He was

00:50:02.340 --> 00:50:05.440
the one that, I mean, he came from the Yardbirds.

00:50:05.619 --> 00:50:08.829
Yep. And he was the one that like. Got the record

00:50:08.829 --> 00:50:11.550
deal, you know, figured out the recording, how

00:50:11.550 --> 00:50:14.449
they wanted to make it sound. He ran the whole

00:50:14.449 --> 00:50:17.369
damn thing. Yeah. And then Robert Plant started

00:50:17.369 --> 00:50:20.469
doing some songwriting after he joined the band,

00:50:20.650 --> 00:50:22.650
you know, because he didn't bring songwriting

00:50:22.650 --> 00:50:24.730
into the band. You know what I mean? I mean,

00:50:24.750 --> 00:50:26.590
just, it's a fascinating story. It's a good,

00:50:26.670 --> 00:50:28.650
it's a short documentary. It's a good one. Oh,

00:50:28.690 --> 00:50:30.269
it's about two hours, actually. Where is this

00:50:30.269 --> 00:50:35.230
on? This is on, I think it's on Prime. Is it

00:50:35.230 --> 00:50:37.050
on Netflix? It says Netflix. Oh, okay. Netflix.

00:50:37.190 --> 00:50:39.210
You know what? We switch back and forth between

00:50:39.210 --> 00:50:41.590
them so often that I can never remember which

00:50:41.590 --> 00:50:43.110
one we go to. I'll have to watch that because

00:50:43.110 --> 00:50:46.869
I like the documentaries. Well, you guys, we

00:50:46.869 --> 00:50:51.050
talked about the Star Trek Strange New Worlds

00:50:51.050 --> 00:50:52.750
or something. That's what it was called. I like

00:50:52.750 --> 00:50:57.570
the show. It's got quirkiness. All of them. All

00:50:57.570 --> 00:51:00.630
the shows have quirkiness to them. But the thing

00:51:00.630 --> 00:51:03.789
about this particular one, it just became a little

00:51:03.789 --> 00:51:06.780
bit... Some of it was just too, it's good to

00:51:06.780 --> 00:51:09.760
space them out, you know? Right. Like, you know,

00:51:09.780 --> 00:51:11.400
maybe I was binge watching them and it appeared

00:51:11.400 --> 00:51:13.639
to be too close together, but it's just like

00:51:13.639 --> 00:51:16.179
they were just, this particular Strange New Worlds

00:51:16.179 --> 00:51:19.019
was just kind of cheesy. Silly. But I still liked

00:51:19.019 --> 00:51:21.099
it. It got silly. It was immature. I know the

00:51:21.099 --> 00:51:22.300
one you're talking about. You're talking about

00:51:22.300 --> 00:51:26.019
the musical. Yeah, and it said, but, well, okay,

00:51:26.119 --> 00:51:28.929
I was going to bring up the musicals, but. Outside

00:51:28.929 --> 00:51:31.730
the musicals, it just had a little Freaky Friday

00:51:31.730 --> 00:51:34.849
kind of episode. Oh, yeah. And it was like there

00:51:34.849 --> 00:51:38.710
was a little Cinderella style. It was just weird.

00:51:39.090 --> 00:51:41.809
But I got to tell you, I think it's funny, which

00:51:41.809 --> 00:51:44.030
is the main point I'm trying to bring up, is

00:51:44.030 --> 00:51:48.610
about these sitcoms all having musicals. It doesn't

00:51:48.610 --> 00:51:51.150
matter what it is. Scrubs, for example. Scrubs

00:51:51.150 --> 00:51:53.210
has a musical. I never watched Scrubs, yeah.

00:51:53.329 --> 00:51:55.949
I never watched it either. Oh, it's a funny,

00:51:55.969 --> 00:51:58.849
funny show. I recommend it. All of them have

00:51:58.849 --> 00:52:01.809
musicals. Hell, even It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

00:52:01.809 --> 00:52:04.369
has a musical. You know, it's freaking funny.

00:52:04.510 --> 00:52:08.289
Yeah. Actually, it's really funny. I don't know.

00:52:08.349 --> 00:52:10.030
I mean, I guess, you know, I guess they want

00:52:10.030 --> 00:52:12.030
to keep it fresh and kind of change things up.

00:52:12.280 --> 00:52:14.599
and so they throw in something kind of silly.

00:52:14.739 --> 00:52:17.340
Part of me thinks it's extremely stupid, but

00:52:17.340 --> 00:52:19.219
the other part of me silently, when no one's

00:52:19.219 --> 00:52:20.619
watching, I'm kind of like, oh, this is kind

00:52:20.619 --> 00:52:22.239
of... You'll get up and dance with it? Yeah,

00:52:22.320 --> 00:52:23.960
I'll get up there. Like thrusting and everything?

00:52:24.139 --> 00:52:27.840
There we go. Actually, Scrubs was funny as hell.

00:52:28.000 --> 00:52:30.340
Those guys were hilarious. I guess it's kind

00:52:30.340 --> 00:52:32.139
of like those Indian movies. If you watch an

00:52:32.139 --> 00:52:34.699
Indian movie, they're like acting normal, and

00:52:34.699 --> 00:52:38.179
all of a sudden, having nothing to do with the

00:52:38.179 --> 00:52:40.400
movie, they take a break, and they all do some

00:52:40.400 --> 00:52:54.730
sort of Koryak... dancing and it's weird i watched

00:52:54.730 --> 00:52:57.010
and i'm just like going what in the hell is going

00:52:57.010 --> 00:52:59.949
on here i watched one of those movies from beginning

00:52:59.949 --> 00:53:04.010
to end yes i did too triple r r r r what and

00:53:04.010 --> 00:53:06.650
it was actually entertaining the movie rrr yes

00:53:07.179 --> 00:53:09.039
Is that the guy with the hair that just moved

00:53:09.039 --> 00:53:14.800
in the wind? Probably. Like Fabio, but the Indian

00:53:14.800 --> 00:53:17.059
Fabio? Exactly. He was like this fighter, and

00:53:17.059 --> 00:53:19.219
he was like a romancer. And every time he had

00:53:19.219 --> 00:53:21.480
a scene, his hair was always just kind of blowing.

00:53:22.099 --> 00:53:23.800
There was always a fan on it. Yeah, these guys

00:53:23.800 --> 00:53:26.260
right here. And you can see they're doing a dance

00:53:26.260 --> 00:53:28.980
there in the bottom corner. But it's ridiculous.

00:53:29.400 --> 00:53:32.039
It was entertaining, for one thing. They're not

00:53:32.039 --> 00:53:36.960
bad. The action sequences were way over the top

00:53:36.960 --> 00:53:38.239
where you're like, yeah, that's not going to

00:53:38.239 --> 00:53:41.500
happen. And then. The Tom Cruise ones are good,

00:53:41.599 --> 00:53:46.960
but come on. Yeah, exactly. But, you know, and

00:53:46.960 --> 00:53:48.199
then they'll like, you're right. They'll break

00:53:48.199 --> 00:53:50.360
into this, you know, they're fighting. Then all

00:53:50.360 --> 00:53:52.079
of a sudden, you know, they'll get a rhythm in

00:53:52.079 --> 00:53:54.800
the fight. They'll start doing the neck move.

00:53:56.719 --> 00:53:59.239
You've got to be on TV. But that was on Netflix

00:53:59.239 --> 00:54:03.179
when I saw it. Wow. That's a three hour movie.

00:54:03.659 --> 00:54:05.400
It did take me several days to get through it.

00:54:05.880 --> 00:54:09.099
Wow. Several days. You really love those dance

00:54:09.099 --> 00:54:11.119
moves. Yeah. Wow, that made me laugh. Did you

00:54:11.119 --> 00:54:12.699
practice the choreography? Well, there were some

00:54:12.699 --> 00:54:14.900
of the scenes that were so over the top that

00:54:14.900 --> 00:54:16.260
I actually videoed and sent them to Steve. I

00:54:16.260 --> 00:54:18.840
was like, you and Preston should do this. They

00:54:18.840 --> 00:54:20.880
were like flinging each other over all. I was

00:54:20.880 --> 00:54:23.159
just like, this is absolutely ridiculous. It

00:54:23.159 --> 00:54:25.880
was entertaining. Yeah. It had some decent special

00:54:25.880 --> 00:54:30.110
effects, but it was. That's quite the commitment.

00:54:30.110 --> 00:54:33.250
Three hours and seven minutes to watch RRR. What

00:54:33.250 --> 00:54:38.769
does RRR stand for? Is that the tiger? It's a

00:54:38.769 --> 00:54:42.909
pirate movie. I have no idea. But if you're going

00:54:42.909 --> 00:54:45.289
to watch one, try that one out. It's actually

00:54:45.289 --> 00:54:49.210
entertaining. I watched one where it's a true

00:54:49.210 --> 00:54:53.849
story of Indian girls that wanted to be wrestlers,

00:54:53.869 --> 00:54:56.210
I think. Wrestlers or gymnasts when they weren't

00:54:56.210 --> 00:54:59.289
allowed to be. And that one was good, too. It

00:54:59.289 --> 00:55:00.670
was funny because I was asking my coworkers.

00:55:00.969 --> 00:55:04.849
I was making fun of Bollywood and the whole dancing

00:55:04.849 --> 00:55:07.190
thing. Right. And they were all like, you need

00:55:07.190 --> 00:55:08.889
to watch one. You know what I mean? What about

00:55:08.889 --> 00:55:11.429
Dangle? I was like, okay, I will. What about

00:55:11.429 --> 00:55:15.510
Dangle? I don't like the Indian movie named Dangle.

00:55:15.510 --> 00:55:18.050
Indian biographical sports drama film Dangle

00:55:18.050 --> 00:55:21.650
tells a story. Former wrestler who trains his

00:55:21.650 --> 00:55:23.920
daughter. Yeah, I think so. That might be it.

00:55:24.000 --> 00:55:26.920
Grita and Babita to become the world -class wrestler.

00:55:27.980 --> 00:55:30.980
Maybe. That might be it. It was pretty good.

00:55:31.460 --> 00:55:34.260
Was it? Yeah. It was pretty good. And Shelly

00:55:34.260 --> 00:55:37.800
watched it with me. What was the Slumdog's...

00:55:37.800 --> 00:55:40.400
Slumdog Millionaire. Yeah. What was that movie

00:55:40.400 --> 00:55:42.340
about? I didn't watch it. I didn't watch that

00:55:42.340 --> 00:55:44.800
either. I think it was an Indian who won a game

00:55:44.800 --> 00:55:46.940
show or a lottery or something like that. Yeah,

00:55:46.980 --> 00:55:48.840
he won Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, I believe.

00:55:48.880 --> 00:55:50.659
Yeah. Something like that, yeah. Interesting.

00:55:51.849 --> 00:55:53.869
Yeah, I don't know. Well, I mean. Anyway, some

00:55:53.869 --> 00:55:56.670
of these movies are actually, you know, they're

00:55:56.670 --> 00:55:59.750
redeeming movies. I mean, they're not so bad.

00:55:59.869 --> 00:56:02.389
I know we make fun of them and the whole dancing

00:56:02.389 --> 00:56:05.750
thing. Well, they definitely have a look to them

00:56:05.750 --> 00:56:11.429
and a formula, right? A repeatable. Yeah, it

00:56:11.429 --> 00:56:13.929
is. At least, again, I don't have a big library

00:56:13.929 --> 00:56:17.030
that I've watched, but, you know, whenever I

00:56:17.030 --> 00:56:18.690
see snippets of it, you know, it's like from

00:56:18.690 --> 00:56:21.940
the ancient Indians who. you know, the princess

00:56:21.940 --> 00:56:23.699
and prince, and they have to fight each other

00:56:23.699 --> 00:56:26.320
or whatever, then they dance, you know, and then

00:56:26.320 --> 00:56:29.300
they fight some more and dance. It's great. So

00:56:29.300 --> 00:56:32.019
it's formula. Again, I don't know if it really

00:56:32.019 --> 00:56:35.539
is or not, but the limited things that I've seen

00:56:35.539 --> 00:56:39.179
has been. You know, a hard left here. I'd like

00:56:39.179 --> 00:56:44.289
to give a shout out to Scott Cash. Scott Cash,

00:56:44.530 --> 00:56:48.170
he invited the Dudes Like Us podcast and some

00:56:48.170 --> 00:56:50.469
workmates to go over his house last week. I missed,

00:56:50.630 --> 00:56:54.230
unfortunately. He really went above and beyond.

00:56:54.510 --> 00:56:57.809
He always does. He's such a great guy. First

00:56:57.809 --> 00:57:01.869
of all, it was a whiskey event. For whiskey lovers

00:57:01.869 --> 00:57:06.099
out there, look, he had what? 50 bottles out?

00:57:06.179 --> 00:57:09.219
He brought out his best stuff. And he was like,

00:57:09.360 --> 00:57:10.579
you know, you guys got to try this, you got to

00:57:10.579 --> 00:57:12.900
try this. But he also had a tequila station and

00:57:12.900 --> 00:57:16.039
a scotch station. I didn't hit anything other

00:57:16.039 --> 00:57:18.880
than the bourbon. But it's kind of hard, though.

00:57:18.940 --> 00:57:20.320
And you're kind of like, well, fuck, man. I can

00:57:20.320 --> 00:57:22.059
only drink so much. I'm going to get shit -faced.

00:57:22.199 --> 00:57:25.639
So I really was conscientious of what I was drinking.

00:57:25.800 --> 00:57:27.760
And Chuck was kind of like, I don't give a fuck.

00:57:27.880 --> 00:57:30.059
Get out of my way. Glug, glug, glug. Bam. Glug,

00:57:30.059 --> 00:57:32.159
glug, glug. Bam. He was knocking over bottles

00:57:32.159 --> 00:57:34.980
and shit. He was like, this is all of me. Amazing!

00:57:37.239 --> 00:57:41.820
He's like that kid. That's exactly true. Exactly

00:57:41.820 --> 00:57:44.000
how it went down. So, you know, he's got his

00:57:44.000 --> 00:57:46.440
guitar amps out. First of all, Scott Cash is

00:57:46.440 --> 00:57:49.539
single. Go figure. And he's got the man's cave

00:57:49.539 --> 00:57:53.380
man's house. I mean, it is a playground. I mean,

00:57:53.400 --> 00:57:55.179
he does have toys. He's got a drum set. He's

00:57:55.179 --> 00:57:56.920
got a gazillion guitars. He's got a scooter.

00:57:57.420 --> 00:57:59.880
He's got an electric scooter. Apparently you

00:57:59.880 --> 00:58:01.860
were riding it around again. I was. It was a

00:58:01.860 --> 00:58:04.559
lot of fun. I'm like, I might get one. I mean,

00:58:04.659 --> 00:58:06.340
I might, you know, might be a good way for me

00:58:06.340 --> 00:58:09.079
to get around. Oh, you've talked about your three

00:58:09.079 --> 00:58:11.679
wheel. I really. Well, you know what? Whatever.

00:58:11.760 --> 00:58:13.119
I'm not going to jump back on that. But look,

00:58:13.260 --> 00:58:15.360
I wanted to shout out to Scott and say thank

00:58:15.360 --> 00:58:18.500
you very much. It was a great deal. And we want

00:58:18.500 --> 00:58:20.880
to do it again. And we want to invite some of

00:58:20.880 --> 00:58:24.980
our main listeners out there that love the whiskeys

00:58:24.980 --> 00:58:27.440
too. So if you're interested in joining us over

00:58:27.440 --> 00:58:30.500
at Scott's house, direct message us on Instagram

00:58:30.500 --> 00:58:33.139
or Facebook. And we'll set up a time when we

00:58:33.139 --> 00:58:34.920
go out there because Scott had a shitload. What

00:58:34.920 --> 00:58:38.599
was that? Penelope? The Penelope Rio. Rio. Oh,

00:58:38.699 --> 00:58:41.219
that was outstanding. And he had so many. He

00:58:41.219 --> 00:58:43.400
had the whole damn Penelope collection, man.

00:58:43.420 --> 00:58:45.679
I was like, wow. Yeah. I was pretty impressed.

00:58:46.260 --> 00:58:48.400
He had a lot. A lot of stuff. Yeah, he had the

00:58:48.400 --> 00:58:51.380
Van Winkle, you know, like the 10 -year, $1 ,000

00:58:51.380 --> 00:58:53.539
bottle. But we didn't try it. We were going to.

00:58:53.639 --> 00:58:55.659
He didn't want to open it. Oh, is that what it

00:58:55.659 --> 00:58:58.079
was? Well, he said we could open it, but, you

00:58:58.079 --> 00:59:00.320
know. Who's going to do that? Yeah. He would.

00:59:00.730 --> 00:59:02.510
I know, but that's the whole thing. We didn't

00:59:02.510 --> 00:59:04.289
want to make him. Well, I think if you're going

00:59:04.289 --> 00:59:06.090
over there just to sample that, but if you're

00:59:06.090 --> 00:59:07.909
over there, you're like six bourbons and you're

00:59:07.909 --> 00:59:09.989
like, you're not going to appreciate it as much.

00:59:09.989 --> 00:59:12.429
Chug, chug, chug. Yeah. Give me four figures.

00:59:14.409 --> 00:59:17.429
What? Oh, you mean your drink? Yes, drink. I

00:59:17.429 --> 00:59:18.849
was like, what party are you going to, buddy?

00:59:18.929 --> 00:59:21.409
No, no. It didn't turn into that. Is that like

00:59:21.409 --> 00:59:24.309
four in the stink? What is going on? Yeah. Four

00:59:24.309 --> 00:59:26.349
of the steak. That's what you said. It could

00:59:26.349 --> 00:59:29.230
be four figures. Wow. The Diddy Party. All right.

00:59:29.230 --> 00:59:30.750
We're going to talk about our bourbon of the

00:59:30.750 --> 00:59:36.739
first half. Let's do it. So this comes off the

00:59:36.739 --> 00:59:39.980
advent calendar that Jeff went to Kentucky and

00:59:39.980 --> 00:59:42.119
came back with a gazillion bottles of whiskey

00:59:42.119 --> 00:59:45.719
and was like, hey, bitches, this one is from

00:59:45.719 --> 00:59:47.800
the Maker's Mark family. Jeff, you want to go?

00:59:48.019 --> 00:59:50.699
Yeah, this is a Maker's Mark. We did the tour,

00:59:50.820 --> 00:59:53.099
which I recommend it. Maker's Mark is actually

00:59:53.099 --> 00:59:54.400
beautiful. Did you hit it when you were up there?

00:59:54.500 --> 00:59:59.340
No. Maker's Mark is a very beautiful facility.

00:59:59.909 --> 01:00:02.730
Uh, they got a really nice clubhouse or whatever

01:00:02.730 --> 01:00:04.170
you want to call it. You can sit out there on

01:00:04.170 --> 01:00:06.969
their deck and overlook their property and, uh,

01:00:07.070 --> 01:00:09.449
enjoy some, some drinks and stuff like that.

01:00:09.489 --> 01:00:10.789
And they, I think they can even get you some

01:00:10.789 --> 01:00:13.750
foods if you want, uh, some finger foods. Uh,

01:00:13.809 --> 01:00:16.809
but anyway, uh, so we did the tour, uh, nice

01:00:16.809 --> 01:00:19.190
young lady took us around, told us all about

01:00:19.190 --> 01:00:24.619
it. And, um, when we got out. uh they actually

01:00:24.619 --> 01:00:28.179
also took us she actually explained what uh you

01:00:28.179 --> 01:00:29.860
know what maker's mark does right so maker's

01:00:29.860 --> 01:00:31.420
mark for the longest time was just one bottle

01:00:31.420 --> 01:00:33.599
it was one mash it was one everything oh wow

01:00:33.599 --> 01:00:36.119
it was maker's mark and that was it and then

01:00:36.119 --> 01:00:39.840
the son uh came up and was taken over and he

01:00:39.840 --> 01:00:42.539
goes well i want to try something different so

01:00:42.539 --> 01:00:46.659
they started he started testing with staves right

01:00:46.659 --> 01:00:49.679
so putting these you know full -size staves Different

01:00:49.679 --> 01:00:51.519
toastings. Putting them in the barrel. Into the

01:00:51.519 --> 01:00:54.519
barrel, like a full -size stave, not little slivers

01:00:54.519 --> 01:00:57.420
or anything like that. Right. And he'd put 10

01:00:57.420 --> 01:00:59.000
of them in there. He'd put five of them in there.

01:00:59.059 --> 01:01:00.840
He was experimenting all over the place. Sure.

01:01:01.039 --> 01:01:03.599
And they said that he did about 200 different

01:01:03.599 --> 01:01:07.239
experiments, different woods, different toasting

01:01:07.239 --> 01:01:11.300
levels, different counts of this toast, that

01:01:11.300 --> 01:01:13.239
toast, all kinds of variations. He did a couple

01:01:13.239 --> 01:01:17.940
hundred. And then he settled on the 46th version.

01:01:18.510 --> 01:01:20.590
And that's when you see the Maker's Mark 46.

01:01:20.969 --> 01:01:25.309
That was his first one that came out, basically

01:01:25.309 --> 01:01:28.550
the second Maker's Mark, right? Right. So that

01:01:28.550 --> 01:01:31.389
was the one he liked well enough to move forward

01:01:31.389 --> 01:01:33.369
with as a regular process and start bottling.

01:01:33.409 --> 01:01:37.150
It was the 46th variation of his experiment of

01:01:37.150 --> 01:01:39.409
all the staves. So that's what the 46 means.

01:01:39.710 --> 01:01:41.349
So anyway, so now they've been playing with it

01:01:41.349 --> 01:01:43.210
for crazy, right? So now you see all kinds of

01:01:43.210 --> 01:01:46.130
stuff with their staves. And this one in particular

01:01:46.130 --> 01:01:49.610
was, it's a limited release. A single barrel,

01:01:49.809 --> 01:01:52.949
and what they said, it was only available there

01:01:52.949 --> 01:01:55.909
at the distillery. So a bottle of Maker's Mark

01:01:55.909 --> 01:01:58.889
Private Selection Panna Cotta from Star Hill

01:01:58.889 --> 01:02:02.369
Farm with a proof of, what is it, 111? 111 .1.

01:02:02.510 --> 01:02:06.449
111 .1, aged with a stave profile including four

01:02:06.449 --> 01:02:10.730
baked American pure, four seared French cuvee.

01:02:10.789 --> 01:02:13.369
That's incorrect. One, what? That's incorrect.

01:02:13.750 --> 01:02:17.320
What does it say on there? It says four. I can't

01:02:17.320 --> 01:02:19.260
read that. Four baked American puree, like you

01:02:19.260 --> 01:02:24.239
said. One seared, I can't read that. Fuck, man,

01:02:24.260 --> 01:02:31.059
my eyes. Yep. One seared French cuvee. Oh, yeah,

01:02:31.079 --> 01:02:33.519
one seared French cuvee, two maker's mark 46,

01:02:33.719 --> 01:02:38.179
three French mendiant, and zero toasted French

01:02:38.179 --> 01:02:41.239
spice. Yeah, so three roasted, yeah, French,

01:02:41.380 --> 01:02:45.710
exactly. So that's what this one is. Interesting.

01:02:45.710 --> 01:02:49.030
And I actually dipped this one in the wax. Did

01:02:49.030 --> 01:02:51.869
you really? Yeah. What a shitty job. It's all

01:02:51.869 --> 01:02:53.489
over the place. I know. There's an extra little

01:02:53.489 --> 01:02:55.489
finger there. Yeah, what's going on there? But

01:02:55.489 --> 01:03:00.110
I bottled one. Or not bottled, but I dipped this

01:03:00.110 --> 01:03:01.329
one. You bottled it too, huh? No, I didn't bottle

01:03:01.329 --> 01:03:05.530
it, but I dipped it. Julie dipped one, and this

01:03:05.530 --> 01:03:08.510
is the one I did. I think that's pretty cool.

01:03:08.789 --> 01:03:13.989
I mean, look, I think it's interesting. to introduce

01:03:13.989 --> 01:03:16.730
these staves to the whiskey because, you know,

01:03:16.730 --> 01:03:18.630
we're all over the place. When I say we, the

01:03:18.630 --> 01:03:20.429
industry is all over the place trying to come

01:03:20.429 --> 01:03:23.110
up with something new. And, you know, the whiskey

01:03:23.110 --> 01:03:25.650
blendery is part of that. They're trying to come

01:03:25.650 --> 01:03:28.409
up with something new. And this kind of shares

01:03:28.409 --> 01:03:31.190
that. It's, you know, I don't see what is a big

01:03:31.190 --> 01:03:35.030
stick. They have staves, Oak and Eden. They're

01:03:35.030 --> 01:03:37.710
huge proponents of staves. There's just iron

01:03:37.710 --> 01:03:39.789
root. Those are in the bottle, though, right?

01:03:40.289 --> 01:03:42.829
Big Mike is. Well, Maker's Mark does it in the

01:03:42.829 --> 01:03:44.750
barrel as they're aging it. Yeah. Right? So they

01:03:44.750 --> 01:03:46.829
don't put them in the bottles. They put them

01:03:46.829 --> 01:03:50.409
in the barrels. But it just seems like a fad

01:03:50.409 --> 01:03:52.329
that's just picking up and picking up. And iron

01:03:52.329 --> 01:03:55.210
root, they're starting to introduce different

01:03:55.210 --> 01:03:57.429
types of staves and putting it in there. And

01:03:57.429 --> 01:04:00.510
I'm looking forward to, I like the Amaranta.

01:04:00.920 --> 01:04:03.380
uh, Amaranta stuff. Right. I'm looking forward

01:04:03.380 --> 01:04:06.380
to more of that. Right. I also think it's a,

01:04:06.579 --> 01:04:08.760
there's so much bourbon out there. We need to

01:04:08.760 --> 01:04:10.900
try to maybe distinguish ourselves. Let's do

01:04:10.900 --> 01:04:13.659
some, do some different things out there. How

01:04:13.659 --> 01:04:16.360
do we grow the industry to where it's just not,

01:04:16.440 --> 01:04:18.880
like I said, for years and years and years, Makers

01:04:18.880 --> 01:04:21.840
Mark had one mash bill, one bottle. Yeah. Right.

01:04:21.920 --> 01:04:24.599
Yeah. I mean, and you know, it's, it's kind of

01:04:24.599 --> 01:04:26.969
like, you know, Everything out there. It was

01:04:26.969 --> 01:04:29.170
like Crown Royal. You want your bourbon? You

01:04:29.170 --> 01:04:31.190
got your staple. Early times bourbon. Bam, there

01:04:31.190 --> 01:04:36.469
you go. Or old granddad. It's just like the beer.

01:04:36.730 --> 01:04:41.070
You didn't have 15 different varieties of beer

01:04:41.070 --> 01:04:43.550
selections out there. Now you have 15 ,000 selections

01:04:43.550 --> 01:04:46.949
of beer and wine. Everything is becoming just

01:04:46.949 --> 01:04:50.309
super. And look, I like it. As long as they can

01:04:50.309 --> 01:04:52.090
make enough money to where they can keep themselves

01:04:52.090 --> 01:04:55.789
in business, super duper. But there are a lot

01:04:55.789 --> 01:04:58.190
of companies out there that are struggling because

01:04:58.190 --> 01:05:03.510
it is so thin. You got to make it. Oak and Eden,

01:05:03.610 --> 01:05:05.590
I just heard today that they're probably going

01:05:05.590 --> 01:05:08.550
to be closing. They're going bankrupt. And they

01:05:08.550 --> 01:05:11.110
had a great product. And that sucks because they

01:05:11.110 --> 01:05:12.730
do have a great product. But at the end of the

01:05:12.730 --> 01:05:18.190
day, it's not about packaging. I mean, maybe

01:05:18.190 --> 01:05:20.010
some of it is for some different companies, but

01:05:20.010 --> 01:05:22.769
using Oak Eden as an example, they had a great

01:05:22.769 --> 01:05:25.469
package. I mean, it looked good, a great concept.

01:05:25.929 --> 01:05:27.929
I don't know where they could have done better.

01:05:28.630 --> 01:05:30.329
You said they're struggling, they may go out

01:05:30.329 --> 01:05:31.869
of business? That's what I understood. They're

01:05:31.869 --> 01:05:34.110
going bankrupt, quote unquote. So I don't know

01:05:34.110 --> 01:05:37.010
if they overextended themselves. They were procuring

01:05:37.010 --> 01:05:39.070
their stuff through MGP. Is it the fact that

01:05:39.070 --> 01:05:40.949
MGP is no longer providing that stuff for them?

01:05:40.949 --> 01:05:44.949
Well, potentially the barrel pricing. Got really

01:05:44.949 --> 01:05:47.409
expensive. So if they bought a bunch of barrels

01:05:47.409 --> 01:05:49.710
and they're still sitting on those really expensive

01:05:49.710 --> 01:05:54.210
barrels and bourbon price for a bottle is coming

01:05:54.210 --> 01:05:57.409
down. It's correcting. It's correcting. So they

01:05:57.409 --> 01:06:00.190
can't sell their bottles for what they need to

01:06:00.190 --> 01:06:02.309
to make back their money. You know what I mean?

01:06:02.349 --> 01:06:05.690
So they bought this barrel for $20 ,000. They're

01:06:05.690 --> 01:06:07.429
like, well, we need to sell that bottle for,

01:06:07.469 --> 01:06:10.230
you know, 70 bucks. And now they can only get.

01:06:10.440 --> 01:06:12.360
Yeah. $60 for it. If they're taking a loss on

01:06:12.360 --> 01:06:14.860
every barrel, they can't do that. So that's what

01:06:14.860 --> 01:06:17.139
happened is the barrel pricing got so expensive

01:06:17.139 --> 01:06:19.960
that a lot of them were having trouble. Even

01:06:19.960 --> 01:06:23.000
the company Barrel, right? They were the biggest

01:06:23.000 --> 01:06:24.619
one who had the most barrels out there. Yeah.

01:06:24.659 --> 01:06:26.480
And they were starting to sell off their lot

01:06:26.480 --> 01:06:28.420
because they saw what was happening, and they

01:06:28.420 --> 01:06:29.840
almost went bankrupt. They may still be having

01:06:29.840 --> 01:06:31.719
trouble, but there are several of them out there

01:06:31.719 --> 01:06:33.880
that were having trouble because they bought

01:06:33.880 --> 01:06:37.139
a bunch of barrels at its peak, and now it's

01:06:37.139 --> 01:06:40.829
dipped, and they can't recoup their money. Yeah.

01:06:40.929 --> 01:06:42.449
All right, so let's talk about this. This nose

01:06:42.449 --> 01:06:44.630
is a little frustrating for me. I can't seem

01:06:44.630 --> 01:06:47.650
to get anything out of it. It's not real strong.

01:06:47.670 --> 01:06:50.489
I've already tasted it, so I know it's a decent

01:06:50.489 --> 01:06:52.889
bourbon. Did you violently shake it? I have been

01:06:52.889 --> 01:06:56.550
swirling it, yes. I'm just not getting anything

01:06:56.550 --> 01:06:59.010
from the nose at all. They were saying, bring

01:06:59.010 --> 01:07:02.380
the glass to the side, let it coat. All of the

01:07:02.380 --> 01:07:04.460
outside of the glass. Oh, good Lord. I just spilled

01:07:04.460 --> 01:07:06.159
it everywhere. Yeah, well, try not to do that.

01:07:06.300 --> 01:07:10.400
You're paying my ass. And then... That's a dumb

01:07:10.400 --> 01:07:13.920
idea. It's too dangerous. Well, I mean, you can't

01:07:13.920 --> 01:07:16.320
swirl it while it's on its side. No, I'm twirling

01:07:16.320 --> 01:07:18.079
it very carefully, but yeah, I mean... No, but

01:07:18.079 --> 01:07:20.840
okay, look. This is what they said. Put it on

01:07:20.840 --> 01:07:22.780
its side and let it get the legs, and it's just

01:07:22.780 --> 01:07:25.760
because it's as fresh. And then that way, when

01:07:25.760 --> 01:07:27.300
you stick your nose in, there's more surface

01:07:27.300 --> 01:07:30.159
area that's covered with the nice... crisp, wonderful

01:07:30.159 --> 01:07:33.079
maker's mark. That did not help me. Oh, I can

01:07:33.079 --> 01:07:36.559
smell everything now. No, really, I'm not getting

01:07:36.559 --> 01:07:38.239
anything from the nose. I'm not either, actually.

01:07:38.440 --> 01:07:41.840
It's a very subtle nose. I pick up some grass,

01:07:42.599 --> 01:07:49.420
maybe some mint on there. Yeah, I can taste the

01:07:49.420 --> 01:07:52.980
mint. I can't smell it. But once I spilled it

01:07:52.980 --> 01:07:55.260
over my hands. Oh, yeah. I could smell your hands

01:07:55.260 --> 01:07:59.119
from here. I can kind of get the grass a little

01:07:59.119 --> 01:08:02.960
bit. Yeah, and some mints and some standard bourbon

01:08:02.960 --> 01:08:07.119
smells. But the flavor. Did you dump it all over

01:08:07.119 --> 01:08:09.179
your face trying to do your swirling thing? No,

01:08:09.179 --> 01:08:11.460
I leaned back smelling it, and it went in my

01:08:11.460 --> 01:08:15.960
face. Oh, my God. All right. This is the first

01:08:15.960 --> 01:08:18.420
half, too, by the way. I know. But, again, on

01:08:18.420 --> 01:08:22.539
the palate. I'm picking up the mints. And the

01:08:22.539 --> 01:08:27.739
finish, I'm getting a ton of tobacco for me.

01:08:29.159 --> 01:08:31.859
Like a late finish. Like when we were sitting

01:08:31.859 --> 01:08:33.600
out at the green room and I took the first couple

01:08:33.600 --> 01:08:36.960
sips, maybe 30 seconds later I was getting a

01:08:36.960 --> 01:08:40.039
lot of tobacco on the palate. So it's a long

01:08:40.039 --> 01:08:42.680
finish and it morphs as it goes along. It does

01:08:42.680 --> 01:08:44.600
last. It does last. I'll tell you what. And it's

01:08:44.600 --> 01:08:46.739
not unpleasant either. It's not a quitter. No,

01:08:46.859 --> 01:08:49.399
it's not. It doesn't attack you. There are some

01:08:49.399 --> 01:08:52.500
out there that are too peppery. It's got a great

01:08:52.500 --> 01:08:56.079
experience, but it's too peppery. After four

01:08:56.079 --> 01:08:57.920
or five seconds, ten, and you're like, oh, my

01:08:57.920 --> 01:09:01.239
God. It just makes the finish horrible. This

01:09:01.239 --> 01:09:04.119
one does finish good. Nice little vanilla twist

01:09:04.119 --> 01:09:06.840
with some sweetness. I'd say some honey, cinnamon,

01:09:07.000 --> 01:09:11.220
oak spice. Yeah. That's one thing. Because we've

01:09:11.220 --> 01:09:13.720
had some recently where the finish is like, that's

01:09:13.720 --> 01:09:15.739
almost non -existent. It's been really fast.

01:09:15.819 --> 01:09:19.100
This one lasts quite a while. It does. It does.

01:09:19.199 --> 01:09:21.819
Did you say that this was distillery only? Distillery

01:09:21.819 --> 01:09:24.399
only. So you have to be at the site. Yeah, and

01:09:24.399 --> 01:09:27.300
it was limited. So once I think this was gone,

01:09:27.399 --> 01:09:30.539
it's gone. Okay. Wow. Well, this is enjoyable.

01:09:32.100 --> 01:09:34.020
I'm not freaking out about it, I'll be honest,

01:09:34.159 --> 01:09:36.939
but it's enjoyable. It's one of those things

01:09:36.939 --> 01:09:41.180
where it's like a Star Wars movie. You got to

01:09:41.180 --> 01:09:44.579
appreciate it for what it is. Right. And I think

01:09:44.579 --> 01:09:47.279
this has got a great – I'm kind of curious to

01:09:47.279 --> 01:09:50.520
see where we grade this. Yeah. I'm kind of along

01:09:50.520 --> 01:09:54.060
where Paul is. I like it. I like it a lot. Is

01:09:54.060 --> 01:09:55.579
it one of our better ones? There's some other

01:09:55.579 --> 01:09:57.300
better Maker's Mark out there, I think. What's

01:09:57.300 --> 01:10:00.600
the proof again? 111. 111. Okay. It's right in

01:10:00.600 --> 01:10:02.560
the sweet spot. It doesn't drink like 111. I

01:10:02.560 --> 01:10:06.359
think it's smooth. It's really smooth. But probably

01:10:06.359 --> 01:10:09.479
maybe 100. It's got a little licorice. I wouldn't

01:10:09.479 --> 01:10:16.500
say it's down to 95 -90. Maybe 100. Yeah. I'm

01:10:16.500 --> 01:10:18.239
liking it more and more. The more I'm kind of

01:10:18.239 --> 01:10:20.279
diving into it. I have not drank a whole lot.

01:10:20.319 --> 01:10:23.520
I still have a bunch in here. I got the video.

01:10:23.659 --> 01:10:25.300
I'll show it to you after the thing of me dipping

01:10:25.300 --> 01:10:28.479
it. Oh, yeah. And you going, oh, damn, out of

01:10:28.479 --> 01:10:32.020
my hand. Sir, don't. Why do you keep spilling

01:10:32.020 --> 01:10:33.760
it? This is my second time. The first time I

01:10:33.760 --> 01:10:35.199
dipped the whole thing and clued it up to my

01:10:35.199 --> 01:10:37.920
elbow. Did you drop it? They're like, sir, can

01:10:37.920 --> 01:10:42.720
you step away from that? And it froze. Sir, just

01:10:42.720 --> 01:10:44.659
go to the complimentary bratwurst stand. Just

01:10:44.659 --> 01:10:48.659
walk away. Get some sour grape. All right, what

01:10:48.659 --> 01:10:52.520
are we going to rate this? I think 111. I think

01:10:52.520 --> 01:11:00.800
I'm around the 7 .2 mark on this. I'm 6 .8. It's

01:11:00.800 --> 01:11:06.609
good. It's above average for me. Yeah. I'll do

01:11:06.609 --> 01:11:09.670
7 -3. I don't want to do 7 -4, and I don't want

01:11:09.670 --> 01:11:13.630
to do 7 -1. I really like it. I like the bourbons

01:11:13.630 --> 01:11:17.279
that finish really long. Yeah, and I'm not talking

01:11:17.279 --> 01:11:19.119
a white powder long. I'm talking a nice cool.

01:11:19.840 --> 01:11:23.739
If I'm enjoying something, I want to sip on it

01:11:23.739 --> 01:11:25.380
for a long time, but I want to be able to enjoy

01:11:25.380 --> 01:11:28.800
that sip for 30 seconds, 40 seconds. This might

01:11:28.800 --> 01:11:31.479
be good with a cigar. Meaning something you could

01:11:31.479 --> 01:11:34.439
dip a cigar in there. It might have a good enhancement

01:11:34.439 --> 01:11:36.939
here. Or maybe like a Tootsie Roll. A Tootsie

01:11:36.939 --> 01:11:40.020
Roll? Can't be perfect with a Tootsie Roll. That's

01:11:40.020 --> 01:11:44.020
interesting. Like in your mouth? I don't know.

01:11:44.079 --> 01:11:47.930
Where else would you put it? Going back to our

01:11:47.930 --> 01:11:49.829
earlier discussion. Yeah, that's kind of how

01:11:49.829 --> 01:11:51.970
we started the podcast. A little suppository

01:11:51.970 --> 01:11:54.529
action. What are you talking about? And the toothy

01:11:54.529 --> 01:11:56.430
roll just keeps popping out. And those are tapered.

01:11:56.430 --> 01:11:58.989
