Nice.
It's a nice sound.
It's been a long time.
Yes it has.
Well needed too.
Over two weeks right?
Yeah, someone decided to traverse the globe.
Well you know, sometimes you gotta get away.
Gotta go to Cancun.
Cancun.
Yep.
Cancun in Colorado.
You know, could be worse places to go.
Yeah, we'll have to get to those trips there a little bit.
Get some of your experiences.
Alright.
Some of your escapades.
No escapades.
No, the wife was with them, there's no way.
Whatever.
I'm gonna go up to the liquor store.
Yeah, did you hit the liquor stores down there?
Not down there.
Did you find interesting bourbons?
No.
We really didn't, there was only one stop we made when we left the resort and that was
to go to a tequila farm because my father-in-law wanted to pick up tequila for his, actually
his girlfriend wanted to pick up tequila for her uncle.
And so yeah, it was kinda cool.
That was the only stop we made.
Do they not have tequila in Cuba?
I'm sure they do but they probably have like pretty strict rules about kinda bringing stuff
in or whatever.
Right.
Yeah.
They're not gonna be in the ass, right?
So.
Yeah.
Alright, welcome back to the podcast.
As Jeff mentioned, it's been two weeks and a lot's happened.
As long as then.
Maybe three weeks.
I think it's three weeks.
Wow.
And a lot's happened.
Lots happened in the current events and shit going on in the world and.
Biden's poll numbers still continue to go down.
Yeah.
You would have figured there's no way they could go down any further.
But he's trying to take credit for the gas prices to go down.
Have you seen that?
So how much.
He's always trying to take credit for something.
I know.
How much have they gone down?
50 cents is the average.
They're saying up to 50 cents in certain regions.
Okay.
So it went down to 432 I think.
But then you're like, dude, come on.
It was $2.50 this time last year.
Oh no.
He absolutely cannot take credit, please.
But it is.
He's trying to take credit though.
You get called out for it because really it's coming down because the refinery's jacked
up production to max.
So the refineries are maxed out and they say every year after July 4th, gas prices go down
just organically naturally.
And they said the recession is causing it to go down as well.
But he wants to take credit for it because he's releasing our barrels, a million barrels
a day or something like that.
I thought he was giving the million dollars, a million barrels a day to a foreign country.
China.
So why would we release strategic petroleum reserves?
I don't know.
In anything other than an emergency for the United States?
Well, that's what the stuff is there for.
I know.
His son supposedly owns part of the company that they sold the oil to in China.
Don't even say that.
So Hunter Biden is making money off of the transaction.
But nobody said anything about that.
Right.
I didn't hear that.
I've assumed that since it's going to China, which is crazy.
Anyway, so let's see.
You want to open with our bourbon?
Well, let's let me think.
I was doing some quick research.
So dudes like us, it's been three weeks, right?
So we during that three weeks, we've been shopping all over the place.
We've been for for bourbons.
And we've bourbons.
Yeah, we've picked up quite the selections.
So we're backed up like we've got what a dozen bottles over there.
Yeah, that we haven't opened yet.
We're trying to do it tonight.
So and plus, if our guests don't know.
Well, first of all, the dudes like us are sampling these bourbons were no by means experts.
We think we are sometimes mostly during the second half of the show.
But yeah, we're experts on everything on the half of the show.
We we've taken this expertise and we're consuming these bottles and we're coming up with opinions.
And that's what we're going to do for the first half in the beginning of the second
half.
So it's a quick little two to five minute thing.
But outside of that, we've got these bottles.
I think our collection is up to about one hundred seventy five bottles right now.
And we've been wanting to like we're starting to purge some of the bottles.
We came up with the concept.
Jeff was like, we need to have the infinity bottle.
I didn't come up with that idea.
But whatever he used to say is like we have enough bottles.
We should make one of our start doing it.
So we procured a couple of those big gallon glass jugs.
Four of them.
We've got to get busy if we're going to come in.
Four gallons of infinite booze.
Wow.
So you've already dumped eight bottles on average of four to six ounces per per bottle,
which you know, when we think about us, when we get up there, what was our poor today?
It was a four ounce pour.
So we started the first half of the show for Paul.
Poor Paul did not look.
Stop.
We know what's going on.
When I pour, I don't think I poured four ounces.
That's ridiculous.
You know, you know, the funny thing is we're pouring into a glass.
We have no idea how much is in that glass.
And so we've been using that as a litmus test for like, you know, making sure it's fair.
Like go to this line.
Yeah, that's what he says.
And then and so we're like, OK, yeah, sounds good.
And then we made the mistake of pouring it into a metered glass where we could see how
much it was.
Oh, we're losers.
That's why the second half is the way it is sometimes.
Four ounces.
And that's four drinks.
That's not good.
So the dudes like us in our fifties having four drinks, I mean, you would think that
we're alcoholic.
So some of us may.
I may be very but I'm trying.
We're trying not to drink throughout the week.
You know, we I mean, that's that's the goal.
We're trying to at least except on Tuesday or Wednesday.
I try whenever we have podcasts.
Yeah, I try to allocate definitely to podcast day, whatever day that falls on.
And I try to pick a day out of the weekend.
If it's if you know, if I do drink more than one day on the weekend, I try just to have
like something light, you know, like a really light beer or a white.
I've got a lot of shit in my house or Zima.
Holy fuck, man.
I like wine.
Cool.
For example, we went out.
Innocently, Jeff and I went to the store on Saturday.
I mean, we didn't plan any of this.
I mean, this was kind of like, you know, hey, let's go pick up.
We picked up a little saw.
You know, there's a box.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
We picked up a something, a saw in a little box that we can cut 90 degrees, 45 degrees
for the picture frame.
Right.
Something that we didn't necessarily need to break out the chops off for.
Right.
You know, something real easy to use and less mess.
And so we pick that up and Jeff's like, you want to go to beer?
And I was like, you know, I just got done drinking one of those Mexican orange sodas
from the Home Depot, fantastic.
You know, wow.
So I mean, I was like, look, look, look, look, look, look, look.
So that doesn't have as much CO2 or something.
It's so easy to drink, man.
And so I was like really bloated.
I was like, I don't really want to lazy dog.
What's that?
So I've never been there.
Evidently, it's been there for quite some time.
I've never heard lazy dog.
I've been there.
I've been there the first time for me.
At least I think.
And I don't know about whatever.
So we go in there and I order bourbon instead of a beer because I felt bloated.
So I had that tin cup, which was was pretty good.
You know, I want to get into it because we have one of the tin cup 10 year bottles in
our collection that we haven't opened yet.
So I'll save the the you didn't buy a 10 year.
No, whatever they had.
It was their standard.
Right.
Yeah.
So I mean, whatever.
So, you know, then we ordered a beer and then the person next to us were getting real chummy.
I mean, we're talking to some of the people sitting around us and and they order, you
know, there were Jeff and I were so full of shit.
We're talking just loud enough for everyone to hear thinking that we're like, oh, check
out the bottle of tin cup up there, which one is that?
Is that the four year 10 year?
You know, just cliff clavinism.
I had my whiskey sommelier shirt on.
Yeah.
Oh, that's fantastic.
Look at me.
Wow.
So the guy next to us, he orders a Buffalo Trace old fashioned.
And I was kind of like, that looks really good.
And then they put something different, some different cherries in the it wasn't the the
mara choney choney cherries.
I don't know.
They're the lugs luxo or luxury or whatever they're called.
They're soaked in like a bourbon sauce.
Yeah, they were really good, really thick cherry.
And it was very thick syrup, too.
And so the guy next to me, he gets, you know, he's got a little toothpick, nice big, you
know, olive sized cherries, really nice big ones.
And Jeff orders his and he gets his.
And then I get one.
And I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
I get one cherry.
Yours was cut in half.
It was like, what the fuck, dude?
Yeah, they ran out.
He's like, yeah, I kind of ran out.
So he went he went and got some extras for us.
But I just thought that was funny.
So it's funny.
What's funny is we were sitting there drinking bourbons and beers and we were I checked out.
We got we had some snacks and Sean's like, let's get an old fashioned.
After we were done.
And then it was over.
It turned a corner right there.
How many do you have?
Twenty.
No, we just had the one.
Oh, man.
But we ended up going to Total Wine right after that.
Yeah.
Picking up a shit ton, because we're going to go see the live Aerosmith cover band out
there.
Yeah.
So my wife, Tara, calls while we're sitting at the place and she was kind of, you know,
she's so last second when it comes to these things.
And, you know, sometimes you got to react real quick.
Yes.
Cover band Aerosmith live free, you know.
That would have been fun as hell.
Oh, good.
Good balls.
But it was still fun.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
So you guys do all this shit when I leave town.
We made sure of it.
You're having fun out in Colorado.
Yeah.
Shooting elk.
And I wasn't shooting elk.
I don't care.
My parents got in the nickname we gave your wife being Luke in the time.
I'm climbing inside of it.
Do what?
Being like Luke in the time time climbing inside of the elk.
Yeah.
I'm going to stay out here tonight.
I already thought it's spelled on.
That would be that would be during the winter.
You don't do it in the summer?
No.
So they had they had this guy that sounded really close to Steven Tyler up there.
Oh, wow.
That's hard to do.
It was he had a great voice.
He did really good.
97.
What?
The band was really good.
Yeah.
The whole.
It wasn't a lot of cantina.
It was grand scale grand scale.
They have a big big amphitheater.
I had no idea that even existed.
I have yet to be there.
So it's pretty nice.
I should go to Sheels and I've never looked back there.
They've got it's all turf and they have a few vendors out there.
And of course, Jeff and I anticipated that we're going to be losers.
So we brought some of our own bourbon and little mini bottles.
I think those are the most perfect things to smuggle to a place like that.
But they had a place to buy to buy booze.
Yeah, they did.
They had beer.
But not bourbon.
You could buy some pop.
We were getting like seven up and a cup of ice.
And we divvied it up and then we poured bourbon in there.
And then unbeknownst to Jeff, I had a little fireball on top of the bourbon.
Unbeknownst.
How would you not know that?
Well, he didn't know until after his first sip.
Yeah, I sipped it.
I was like, this does not taste like.
In retrospect, it was a very different bad idea.
I apologize.
That's all I taste.
It was fireball.
Yeah, it just didn't work out.
However, you know, then whatever.
But I really enjoyed like having like the little mini bottles.
I thought they were good.
It was I wanted to say little dudes like us thing because, you know, it's about these
experiences that dudes like us have all the time.
And it pertained to the bourbon.
And here we are.
And you had lots to drink that night.
Well, you end up going back to my house.
And we made our own old fashions because you bought an old fashioned mix and a jar of cherries.
Yeah.
And I woke up.
You're trying to recreate that experience.
I woke up with the worst headache at three thirty in the morning because there was so
much sugar between the pops and the and the syrups and stuff that we can't we can't do
that anymore.
I was just like, I feel like shit.
Yeah, I didn't feel good at all.
It was I had a I was pill pop in these little tums just not see.
I can't I can't.
I must.
I've got a bad tummy, man.
I have to I've got to be careful.
I get to prepare accordingly when it comes to some of the stuff and that the old fashion.
Plus, I think I put way too much mix.
You have the jar.
Well, it was a large cup, too.
So you had an old fashioned old fashioned mix.
Dude, imagine an old fashioned normally comes in a cocktail glass.
OK, yeah.
So I have a glass like that size, a big 16 ounce tumbler.
So I just doubled up on the quantities.
Why wouldn't you?
And you bought that at Total Wine?
Yeah, it was a pre-mix.
It had the cherry juice and something else in there.
It didn't take it was bad.
It was a batch.
It was.
Yeah, there was too much sugar at the end of the night between that the pop and everything.
But it didn't taste too sweet when you made it.
Or would if you made it again, would you make it less you drink?
At that point, how good it really was, I don't know.
Right.
But it was good at the time.
Something I didn't know until the next morning is that Sam drank an incredible amount of
vodka.
Sam, the Sam and his girlfriend, I of course, I invited him to this podcast.
We've got to follow up with that.
But whatever.
Sam is a guy that I've known for quite some time.
Oh, yeah, I've heard you bring up his name before.
I don't know if I call him pumpkin head Sam or just he went out with you guys.
Yeah, he was the guy.
He was the main person that invited us out there.
Oh, nice.
You know, because he knew about it until till Tara.
OK, well, cool.
Yeah, I've never met him, but you've brought up Sam before.
He's a good guy.
Yeah, that'd be great if he was on the project.
He's a little younger than than we are, just a little bit.
And he he's not married.
So usually when we see him, he's usually got a different girlfriend.
Sam's not an ugly person, so they're usually pretty pretty.
And so this latest trend, hopefully, will work out for him.
That's all I'm going to say about it.
I have no idea.
She's very nice.
I like her.
She's a very sweet person.
Nice.
You know, you have friends like that.
Dudes like us have friends like that.
Of course, they're single and they're kind of like, what is with you?
Why is it that you cannot maintain a girlfriend?
You're a good looking guy.
I don't have any friends like that.
You don't know.
Well, you have Sam.
Well, outside of him.
There you go.
I know through you.
I guess I've got some divorced friends that have remarried, but not one of those, but
not not play.
Not playboy type.
I mean, I need to reach out to him because he wanted to come up and do the podcast.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, sounds like you guys have a lot of fun in my absence.
Whatever.
You had a lot of fun, too.
Shut your face.
Yeah.
You went to Mexico and had a fantastic time.
Every single every every weekend, I'm like sending pictures.
You guys want to do this?
You want to do that?
Oh, no.
I'm too busy.
I'm doing a butt loosh off my father-in-law.
Okay.
You butt looshed with your father-in-law?
That never happened.
It was funny, like debris.
It's his father-in-law's wife slash girlfriend was pouring bourbon down Al's back and it
was falling between his butt cheeks.
And Paul was on the bottom and go, and his face was just kind of like covering on it.
That might be one of your fantasies, but that never happened.
No, I tell you what, it was a really nice resort.
It was really nice.
Which one did you stay at?
It was so ridiculous.
It was like the, let's see, something casitas.
The El Dorado casitas.
And it had, check this, you leave your back patio and you have your own private little
tiny pool and then that pool is connected to a lazy river and then you get in the lazy
river and you can float down to the pool bar, the swim up pool bar.
It was so nice.
The food was amazing.
Everything was like, yeah, it was top notch.
So it was all inclusive, right?
All inclusive.
What about, how was the food?
It was amazing.
Was it like McDonald's and Chick-fil-A?
No, a little bit better.
A little bit better than that.
Did they have french fries?
Yeah, I'm sure they had french fries, yeah.
I think they had a sandwich and french fries at one point.
Oh yeah, yeah, I had a, well, they had room service, right?
24 hour room service.
All part of it.
So you could say, I need an order of fries to bring to you.
100%.
No extra charge.
No, it's all inclusive.
Yeah, it was crazy.
I need a bourbon and Coke.
They bring it to you?
That, I don't think, they could not bring drinks to your room, I don't think.
But the people who like bought into like, if they were members, they were, yeah, they
had bottles in their room and these really top members had butlers.
And so the butlers would bring them whatever, literally whatever they wanted.
So like Downton Abbey butlers?
Yes.
Like Carson?
I'm watching it now, that's why I know his name.
It was crazy.
Somehow we got upgraded to be in a pool area where a lot of the members were and it was
members only, right?
So they looked at you and went, did you have a jacket?
Well, they didn't know.
Who are these people?
They didn't know we weren't members, right?
But what's interesting is these people all go, they've gone so many times over like 15
years plus that they recognize each other and they know each other, right?
But there's always new people that come in.
So they weren't like, you know, clickish or anything like that.
But a lot of the times-
These Texans.
Oh no, no.
He's drinking from the bourbon bottle again.
Most of the people are from Texas.
Oh really?
Most of the people, yeah.
Anyway, they'll text each other.
They'll be like, you know, hey, we're going down, you know, blah, blah, blah.
And they're like, okay, well, we'll go down there too.
So is it like a timeshare?
You know, it's interesting.
They pay a crap load of money to be members and they still have to pay, but they pay a
discounted rate.
I would think it would be free if you're paying that much money.
Yeah, if you're paying like a membership fee.
No, it's a one-time fee, but it's exorbitant.
Like it's like, no, it's like $200,000.
What?
Yeah, that's what Shelley was saying.
Like she was talking to one of them.
I didn't really get, I didn't want to get into that with the people, you know, but she
was talking to one of them and yeah, to be like an Emerald member or something.
It was like $280,000.
And you still have to pay to get there.
Yes.
But you get a butler.
And you get a butler that takes care of everything.
And what's really funny, these people, like, they want to really take care of you because
they want you to tip them, right?
The butler does.
I mean, and that's their purpose.
They're literally their purpose is to make sure you have the most amazing time ever.
Right.
And so, you know, there's one couple that was never in their room.
Right.
They're always at the pool or they're going to the restaurants and like the butler came
down like we're all in the pool.
Right.
Is he in the tuxedo?
No, excellent.
Does he carry a tray with him?
Right.
No, but he came down to the pool and he was one of those little tuxedos with the shorts.
Right.
No, sandals.
No, but he was, he came down to the pool and he was.
He had like this distraught look on his face.
Right.
And he's like, man, I've been looking all over for you in broken English.
Right.
I've been looking all over for you.
Where, you know, do you guys need anything?
I mean, I think blah, blah, blah.
And they're like, sorry, sorry, we haven't been in our room.
And he's like, OK, well, make sure you text me and let me know if there's anything you
need.
You know, crazy, crazy.
Interesting.
Text me.
I need a calzone.
Hey, we're looking to go get something to eat.
We're looking for a specific restaurant.
I need some lobsters.
Oh, yeah.
No, they.
Anything you need, they took care of.
I didn't.
I didn't have a butler.
You know, we didn't have it.
And it's comped.
You want to pay for it?
Well, that's part of it.
Yeah.
How about traveling outside?
You tip those people, but they.
We're looking at the eight ball.
You didn't pay extra for it.
Pool billiards?
Oh, you mean drugs?
Yeah.
Could they get you drugs?
They probably could have.
I don't know.
I didn't ask.
You free base with you?
With you?
You're quite handy with the lingo over there, aren't you?
No, but they would have.
How about the
eight ball?
They would like, you know, hey, we want a bottle of this in the room and a bottle of
that in the room.
And they were like, OK, got it.
No problem.
How about like, did they have like some of these resorts have little excursions you can
take for to the Aztec temple?
Oh, yeah, we did one of those.
Pretty fun.
Did you do the river snorkeling?
No, we went to the Chit Chit Chia or something like that.
It was a it was a you know, like a ruin.
It was a Mayan ruin thing.
It wasn't it wasn't to loom.
It was like I didn't we we booked this.
Shelly booked this excursion with with with Jesse, my my father in law's girlfriend.
And I had no idea it was a 14 hour excursion.
Wow.
It was brutal.
Never, ever again would I do that.
But it was walking for 14 hours.
No, we got on a bus and then we went to.
Yeah, that's it.
One of those Chit Chia Mayan ruins.
How long was the the trip?
I felt 14 hours.
No, well, no, no, no.
How long was the drive to the place?
OK, so yeah.
Well, so I mean, it was kind of broken up.
So we took a bus to like for an hour and a half and we 14 hours.
But we were gone from the resort for 14 hours.
I never, ever again would I do that.
I would.
I think I would.
It's like.
I imagine this is cutting into my booze time too damn long.
It was cool.
But we went to the ruins and it freaking poured on us.
And so I was like, OK, well, I guess the tour is over.
So I was like, we're looking at places to go like get underneath something.
And the tour guy just kept talking and the group skate with him.
So I was like, I took out my hearing aid and stuck him in my pocket.
And we just walked around with him in the pouring rain.
I mean, it was like drenched us.
It was pretty cool, though.
It only rained for 30 minutes, but it was a neat experience.
And you know, and they have all these stalls where you buy all these little trinkets and
they're like, you know, bothering you.
Every single one has the exact same stuff.
You guys have experienced that.
Do you take any pictures?
Of course, they probably look just like that.
Yeah, it's like walking in the house.
I actually have even a cool cooler picture because when it rained, it like monsooned.
So there was like I was just tromping through water.
Everybody was.
Anyway, I was on the other side of it and there was standing water where we were.
So I got it with its own reflection in the water.
Whoa.
Cool.
Did you were there any sacrifices?
Yes, they have a yes.
So every afternoon they do they behead people.
I thought they stabbed like a virgin or something.
Well, I think virgins is only during the winter time, the winter months.
So they they there's actually some of those temples where you can make a clap noise and
exactly what they did.
Yep.
It makes a bird noise.
Is that what happened?
It wasn't a bird noise.
It was more like a chirp or a call.
That's amazing.
That's exactly what it was.
I clapped and it did do that again.
I clapped and then it went, yeah, dead on.
Actually not at all.
But you clap and it makes some sort of a really odd noise that you wouldn't suspect.
I don't remember.
See, that's a cool picture, right?
You need to add some color to it.
Well, I know, but you see the reflection of it and you never can see the reflection because
there's never any standing water right there.
It's very symmetric.
I think it's very cool.
Yeah.
Well, why don't you anyway.
I want to send that in and win like a million dollars on some sort of Aztec ruin picture
competition.
They'll be like, wow, how did you get that?
It's not Aztec, it's Mayan.
I got corrected on that.
So was it the Mayans or the Aztecs that did all the sacrifices?
Or both?
Both.
Who knows?
I mean, a lot of those.
I think it was both.
A lot of the infrastructures were taken over by, you know, for centuries.
It's like you have this one tribe that probably lived there for a hundred something years
and then they probably get sick from some sort of weird disease like covid 11 and then
they die and then they get some other tribe that comes in and they start the same process,
rinse, repeat.
Is that where Kalima took place?
That was in Thailand.
That's right.
Yeah.
That was Indiana Jones Temple of Doom.
But you know what's really interesting though?
So they had a little.
Did you start doing that out there?
Kalima!
So these people were looking at me and I'm like.
No, so they had this.
So they also had this like field where like where these people would play this game where
they.
Soccer?
It was soccer sort of.
Flussball.
Anyway, so here's what's interesting about the whole.
We got to talk about that too.
So here's the thing about it.
They said, OK, first off, if you die in this culture, that's like a celebration.
It's a happy thing because you're going to the next level of whatever.
So they would seven on seven.
They used to play each other and the winners would get sacrificed.
Oh, I would totally lose.
What the hell?
Think about that.
Like gutted?
And they were honored like they they were they were trying so hard to win so that they
got beheaded.
That's like a cult.
And then they and then they moved on to their next level of enlightenment.
Are they sure?
Well, yeah, right.
I mean, exactly.
But that's what the guide said.
And he's all knowing.
Did he?
Yeah.
How do they know this?
Yeah.
Is he really a authority on this?
Is there a book?
Is there a Cyclopedia Britannica?
I didn't ask him.
I should have asked him that.
He said they were honored to be killed.
And I was like, how do you know?
Why do you think you're the expert?
Who verified this?
Why do you think you even qualify to be a tour guide?
Were you whistling the soundtrack from Disney's El Dorado where the Golden City was?
No, I was not.
But I don't even know how to whistle that.
But I don't think that was Disney.
That's intriguing.
Well, what was it?
It was DreamWorks.
Pixar.
It was not Pixar.
Is it El Dorado?
Pixar's Disney?
El Dorado.
I know.
It didn't start out that way.
Disney bought Pixar.
Oh, yeah, because now Buzz Lightyear is all woke.
He's gay and he made out with another guy on his show.
What?
I don't think it was him that was making out.
I think it was the one of the ladies that were scissor eyes.
No, I heard they said that Buzz Lightyear is gay.
Oh, come on.
How can he be gay?
Because that's what they did in the latest movie.
You guys haven't heard the uproar about this?
No, I did, but I thought it was the two ladies that were macking down.
Mackin' down.
Yeah, they were scrogging.
Scissoring?
Yeah, scissoring.
They were scissoring on Buzz Lightyear.
That is so upsetting.
Can't we just let kids enjoy movies as kids?
I think that's one reason why the thing bombed.
It bombed.
It really bombed.
Meanwhile, Minions went nuts.
Like it did really well.
So, interesting.
Well, these people that are making these movies...
Sooner or later...
They're going to get it.
I mean, they're going to eventually figure it out that...
Oh, yeah.
Go broke.
Did you see that the new Nickelodeon TV show, Monster High, I saw the preview.
I saw it on a news channel.
What happened?
No, I couldn't help but notice the echo of the class seemed as if it were a little barren.
Anyway, the Nickelodeon Monster High new thing uses the pronouns.
Oh, neat.
Hey, my name is Joe.
They them.
Oh, hey, my name's Chris.
He, she.
Okay, it's one thing to open up and say what you are, but I want to hear it...
This right here.
I want to hear it in conversation.
That's what they do.
Oh, so they say...
Yeah, this preview here.
Really?
Yeah, so...
That is so silly.
So, if somebody was going to say...
Hi, my name is so and so.
He, she.
Right, so if Sean and I are talking to each other and we're trying to recall something
you said and you go by they...
Mr. Producer.
So, I'm supposed to say, well, what did they say?
Correct.
About you.
Correct, or them.
Does them want to come with us?
Yeah, that doesn't make sense.
It's plural, right?
Yeah, how do you navigate that?
When does them come in?
Well, I don't.
You're a he or she.
Well, let's go with them.
As one person?
Yeah, we'll like...
Well, it makes sense if you're in certain sentences, but in certain senses it doesn't
because it's one person.
Right.
I'm trying to...
Why don't you use their name?
That's all I would say.
That's the way you get around it.
No, hey, let's go with him over there.
Right.
Mr. Producer, you have volume on this?
You don't pick a dude.
You're a him.
Right.
If you and I are wanting to go out and we want to call Sean, we say, well, let's call
them.
Hold on a second.
Let's call them and find out.
Welcome to Monster High.
Oh my God.
Oh shoot, I'm late.
Name's Frankie.
Pronouns say them.
Claudine.
She-her.
There's also that.
There you go.
How can you tell they're home?
I think they're making fun of it.
Maybe we knock.
I don't think they are.
Never knock on a closed coffin.
Ask them goodbye.
I don't think they are.
They're not.
Here we are.
School.
This is so cool, Frankie.
Who can tell me what the greatest threat to monster kindness is?
Well, I was on a work presentation and they opened that way.
Hi, I'm Rachel.
She-her or whatever.
I saw one that said, my name is Lulu.
It's.
Sam Shady?
It and it's.
Is it Slim Shady?
Slim Shady is.
Sorry.
It and it's.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
It and it's.
That's a person that went by it and it's?
Yes.
I'm sorry.
It would be highly offended if you did not use that.
So how would you know?
Yeah, you say.
Let's go out with it instead of.
So if you would have used they, would that person have been offended?
Man, I totally offended.
I go by it.
I would go out of my way to offend them and then I tell them to go suck a rainbow.
Do you recall when the three middle aged kids were threatened with sexual assault because
they misgendered?
They were.
What was the outcome of that?
They dropped it because it was stupid.
Beyond stupid.
The mom of one of them like was going apeshit crazy like you're going to you're going to
say this sexual assault.
Somebody goes into a bathroom and you know, does whatever.
And that's the same charge as somebody not knowing misgendering somebody.
Really?
I mean, our producer, because he's his hair looks the way it is.
He's got really long, beautiful hair, voluminous hair.
There was a time where he was younger, where we go to the restaurants and he was like,
what would this little lady like?
And he'd look at him like, I shut the fuck off.
Shut the front door.
I got a panouce.
You know what?
That is a bizarre alternative to penis.
Is that something your parents talked about?
You know what my mom used to call a penis?
I was going to say, is that what your uncle called it?
A willy.
She used to, my mom used to call the penis a doomy flotch.
A what?
A doomy flotch?
Doomy flotch.
No, not doomy flotch.
Doomy comma flotch.
It's just doomy flotch.
And I was calling.
Did she have a neighbor friend named Flotch?
I have no idea.
She told you.
I forgot that she even said that.
Was she talking to you when she said it?
Was she like, she's like, cover up your little doomy flotch.
Or was she on her phone?
What the hell does that mean?
You're outside a closed door and she's going, doomy flotch, doomy flotch.
Oh my God.
Producer, type in doomy, D-U-M-I, flotch, just to see if something populates.
Nuts don't.
That's a bad idea.
You know how every once in a while.
I look at images.
Yeah.
Every once in a while we instruct him to search for something and we're like, no.
I was editing one and Blue Waffle came up.
No, no, no, no.
We're not doing that one.
That's what it was.
We're like, no, we don't want to see it.
He pulls it up on his computer.
He's like, well, I get to find it.
What is that doomy flotchy right there?
The Urban Dictionary.
Doomy flotchy.
Look at that.
That's the name of Sean's penis.
So it's a lollyganger, a thingamajig, a whatchamacallit, doohickey, a doodad.
Oh, okay.
Well, that's the same as a whatchamacallit.
A dooby dabber.
All right.
Well, look, I'm going to have to reacquaint myself with this term and chat with my mom
about it.
Okay.
So it wasn't a sexual term.
It was a thingamajigger.
Well, I don't know.
She's called it a doomy flotchy.
I don't know.
As a kid, I was kind of I lived in Germany.
I thought it was a German word.
I was like, I guess I got a doomy flotchy.
I think that's probably a generational very well.
It's probably a very localized term as well.
Yeah.
Although it showed up on Urban Dictionary.
No, it didn't show up like that, though.
Yeah.
Well, very nice.
We got off track again.
We were talking about minions.
Well, we were talking about your tour.
We were talking about Buzz Lightyear, I think.
Buzz Lightyear.
It's a woke flop.
Well, they dropped Tim Allen for one thing.
Oh, did they?
Yes, they dropped because he's Republican.
They dropped him and brought in the woke Captain America guy, Chris Evans.
That's so shitty that they wouldn't bring in Tim Allen.
Right.
I mean, that's so it's so weak.
It's so weak.
It's so lame.
It literally shows the childishness of the left.
It's a game.
It's like genius.
It's like, you know, it's like, you know, it's like, you know, it's like, you know,
it's like, you know, I sent you that article.
Did you guys read it about what the movie she's in?
No, about the Star Wars.
Oh, yeah.
Once the stay with the 40 year old white male stories, stories.
Right.
Yeah.
There's enough of those.
I just don't get this hatred.
I mean, this this hatred of any class of Americans.
Right?
But, I mean, I know the old white males are being targeted, right?
So you're talking about Star Wars going on.
You know, old white males are being targeted, right?
It's been like that for a long time, though.
I don't understand it.
Yeah, but the Mandalorian's not a white male, is he?
He's Hispanic.
Oh, he's Hispanic.
So I mean, you're worldwide.
And by the way, he did not, apparently did not back
Gina Carino much at all.
And that's his coworker.
That's his friend.
And he didn't back her.
Well, that's because he's woke.
What a douchebag.
She's a Republican.
He's not a conservative.
He's the guy from Narco, Mexico.
He's also in Game of Thrones.
But the thing about it is she didn't say anything that bad.
No, she retweeted.
I mean, oh my god.
And so did he.
It was just a different perspective,
but it was basically the same damn thing.
It's outrageous.
Whatever.
The double standard is beyond shocking.
Right.
Well, speaking of the double standard,
extremely, I'm beyond myself that the double standards will
eventually get pulled out into the open.
And we've talked about this before with the Twitter
and the Elon Musk war where he proposes $54 billion
to purchase Twitter.
And he's kind of like, hey, wait a minute.
Look, I'm ready to purchase this.
I got the money.
It's right here.
But let's do it.
I need to make sure this company, I need to thorough.
Look under the hood.
Let's check some stuff out.
All right, well, we have some bots.
All right, well, how many bots do you have?
Because if we're going to be paying X amount of dollars
when the advertisers out there think that we have,
I'm making this number up.
Let's say advertisers think we have 100 million people,
users, accounts, whatever you call them, accounts.
100 million accounts.
But yet you're telling me that we have 20% bots.
OK.
Less than 5%.
No, no, no.
They said 5%.
5%, OK.
And then it turned out to be 20 plus percent.
So I mean, if you're an advertiser, which is,
I mean, if that's true, that's security fraud.
Huge.
That's security fraud.
Because they're basing the value of the company
in the stock market based on what you're announcing
as your number of subscribers.
The way the stock fraud.
Twitter in the first place, it wasn't doing very well.
I mean, it's not doing horrible, but it was stagnant.
In fact, it started dropping a little bit,
just like the rest of them.
And when Elon Musk took over, it was like boom.
There was a spike.
Oh, a huge spike.
And now they're going to let him take it to court?
Do it?
Well, then they wanted to investigate him
for fraud from that perspective, like talking up the trade,
making a bunch of money on it, because he bought enough stock
to be a majority owner.
Yeah.
Is that what happened?
No, he wasn't a majority owner.
He wasn't a majority.
He had a major stakeholder.
He was the largest stakeholder.
And so he bought a bunch, and then it spiked.
He made a ton of money.
And then people are like, this is bullshit,
because you can't do that.
He's just basically playing this huge chess game.
I'm hoping this is what the case is.
I'm hoping he's as smart as we think he is,
where he's anticipated this whole thing.
This whole thing's been orchestrated,
and it's got to be.
I think he knew that they were overstating
how many accounts they had.
I think he was disgusted with how they conducted themselves
in terms of censoring one side and playing
God when it came to what you can see or not see.
And I think he went after him.
All right, let's double back to this bourbon.
Did we ever talk about it?
No.
We didn't.
Let's go back, because at this point right now,
the bourbon is a lot more palatable.
Of course, I've had two large cubes in there,
and the four ounces of bourbon that's in there.
And it's getting a little diluted.
It tastes, I think, a lot better.
It is 107 proof.
So I don't know anything about this bourbon.
Hopefully, the Mr. Producer has some information on it.
Baker's 7.
Yeah, it's Baker's 7.
Baker's 7.
Which is a Jim Beam company.
And it's a, is it the seven year?
Yeah, seven year small batch.
And it's not cheap.
I mean, it's pushing $80.
Yeah, click on that one there.
So I mean, it's not, frankly, I wouldn't buy it again.
Yeah, I wouldn't either.
I'm glad we have it.
I would probably keep 5 1⁄8 of that bottle sitting up there.
Well, we've already knocked out more than 5 1⁄8.
Age, yeah, we're about the half.
Age, eight years.
77 corn, 13 rye, 10 barley.
Yeah.
And it says it's supposed to be $60,
but that's MSRP in 2020.
But look, here's the thing.
When we first popped this bottle open, it was caustic.
Yeah, it had a rough nose.
Yeah, you know.
What did this dude have to say about the nose?
Now, the Baker's Burbot is one of the four.
This bourbon instantly identifies as a beam product
as a nutty aroma jumps out, which is really potent
and initially blocks out other scents, giving a deep inhale,
however, brings out baking spices,
along with hints of caramel and vanilla.
I thought it was.
I didn't get the ethanol at first.
I thought it was extremely.
Maybe it was the nut that I smelled, but it was strong.
I got the ethanol right away.
It turned me off, I got to be honest.
I didn't get it, but it was very, very strong nose.
I tasted honey for some reason, vanilla.
You know, it was whatever.
At this point right now, it's just a,
it's an undesirable bourbon.
It's on the OK list.
And that's it.
I wouldn't pay 60 bucks for it.
Yeah, scroll down just a little bit.
I want to see what their summary is at the end of this value.
Interesting, decide to go with the overall.
Here we go.
The new Baker's seven year single barrel.
It'll be a bottle we're seeking out and trying once.
There we go.
That's really all you need to know at the very end.
A bottle we're seeking out and trying once.
Well, that pretty much nails it.
That nails it.
I think that was the nicest possible way
you could say that you really didn't like it.
Well, yeah, a lot of these times, these guys.
It's all right.
All right.
It's not horrible.
It's just not horrible.
But does it want to go, wow, I'd buy this again.
We have some out there like, yeah, we need another one
of these.
With all the options you have out there.
But it's all right.
You're right.
It's one of these where you get it and you're just like,
eh, it's not worth it.
Because I think you pay, I think this was about $55, $60 for it.
And it's just, eh, it's all right.
Well, some of those.
I think I paid more than that.
I mean, it was not cheap.
Anyway, yeah, definitely one and done.
All right.
What's up next on the Burbank for this halftime show?
Is it the 10-year Rebel Yell?
Yeah, I think we're excited about that one.
That was an award winner, so I'm excited to taste it.
Oh, that's right.
That's right.
Now I remember.
We're already Rebel Yell fans.
Now currently, they changed the name to Rebel.
But I, in protest, I will continue
to call it Rebel Yell because it is not racist.
And what about Billy Idol's Mony Mony?
With a rebel yell.
Oh, I agree with you.
She cries, mow, mow, mow.
Mow.
Come on.
Yeah, it was crazy.
I think it happened at the same time when Lady A,
Antebellum, changed her name to Lady A,
and then they removed the poor lady off the syrup bottle.
And the Pocahontas from the butter.
And the Eskimo from the Eskimo pie.
I mean, really, all they're doing, especially when I.
Uncle Ben from the rice.
Yeah, especially.
Aunt Jemima from the syrup.
Especially Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben.
Is it Uncle Ben?
Yeah, Uncle Ben.
All you're doing is leaving a bunch of white guys out there.
You are actually taking away from what was a celebrated.
I mean, the Aunt Jemima family was incredibly honored
to be on that bottle.
I would be.
Why not?
What?
Dad, I don't understand at all.
I really don't.
I don't get it.
But anyway, the Redskins, they're no longer.
They're the commanders now.
They're the commandos.
How about the Braves?
Who is making these decisions, though?
I mean, who's making these decisions?
So the owners of the company are getting so much pressure
from the fucking Twitter mob.
Are they really getting that much pressure?
Yes.
Why would they change it?
But look, it's because they're pathetically weak.
That's why.
Exactly.
They give in.
If that is the case.
But Dan Snyder held out as long as he could.
There are.
But there are forces out there that have control
of every aspect of our lives.
You know, it's like the gas that we're purchasing,
it's the income.
I'm sorry, not the income, but the interest rates.
I mean, everyone has their finger over us.
And who is that?
I mean, who are the people that Joe Biden's talking to?
Who is that?
I mean, what is that?
There's just this.
George Soros.
This ether collective.
It's this ether.
I mean, this money, this conglomerate of folk out there
that are pulling the strings to everything that we do.
And I'm telling you, I think the United States citizens
are all guinea pigs.
Yeah.
We're guinea pigs with medicines.
I've read several books that have that theme.
There's an elite class that basically manages everything.
That are pulling the strings.
That have the influence to affect global economics.
Let's think about this.
For medicines, for example.
I mean, we're like the worst on the planet.
You know, for charging it.
I mean, look, we're basically the matrix.
We are, every human in the United States
is paying taxes and paying for the rest of the planet.
I mean, because to get the same medicine over in Europe
is 25% of what we pay.
They have socialized medicine, though.
Some do.
Do you want socialized medicine, or do you
want to pay high drug prices?
No, that's not necessary, too.
That's not always.
I want neither.
They have socialized medicine up in the Scandinavian region,
where they can sweep.
But they don't have that in Europe.
England does.
Germany.
England does.
OK, so that's the United Kingdom.
Canada does.
United Kingdom does.
But not Germany.
I don't know.
That's a great question.
Not France.
Not Italy.
Are we sure about that?
Yeah, I live there.
How long ago?
I'm telling you, they don't have a socialistic medical pay
rate or care right now.
They may.
They might.
That's something we're going to have to do.
We're going to have to investigate.
They have to strongly.
That is not true.
We're going to have to duck, duck, go to that.
That is not the case.
It's impossible to have universal health care
in some of those other countries.
Not all of them.
But a lot of them in Europe.
The UK did it.
Are you sure?
Europe is definitely leaning towards that more
than any other.
Are you sure the United Kingdom has universal health care?
Yes.
Socialized medicine.
I don't think.
Scandinavia does.
So we have to be careful about socialized medicine,
universal health care.
It doesn't all mean the same thing, right?
So I don't know.
I don't know.
That's a good question.
How universal health care coverage works in Germany.
Well, there we go.
That just defines it right there.
That was November 22, 2019.
It says how universal health care coverage works in Germany.
That implies that they have universal health care.
All right.
Thanks for playing, Sean.
You are?
I'm still fighting it.
The exit is over there.
You have one x now.
Yeah.
No idea what he's talking about.
Kind of like the acknowledgment of COVID.
I don't see it.
You don't believe it?
I'm not.
You think COVID is a hoax?
I think there are options out there.
But my point by bringing up the people pulling the strings
isn't really about health care.
It was mostly about the medicines.
It's not everything.
And even though that some of these companies
have programs set up so that you could
be part of the universal or government health care,
doesn't mean you can't have the private sector having
their own insurance.
You just don't have to pay into it.
You have companies like countries like Sweden
that you pay 65% taxes, if not more,
so that you can get all these.
I guarantee it.
They're not paying 65% taxes in Germany.
So the health care is not the same as it is in Sweden,
as it is in the United Kingdom and Germany.
So there's different types.
So my point by saying that is that it's not the same.
It's kind of like what Obamacare, which was really
Hillary Clinton care.
Because Obama just came under his administration.
He's just one who got a past.
You're right.
So yeah, what the heaven's sweet in is different than,
and they're struggling right now.
Oh, big time.
Then that's mostly because of the immigrants that
are coming in from.
Unchecked immigration.
Yeah.
Well, I'm not sure.
And did you know that the United States
funds their defense?
Because of NATO?
No, because they don't have any money left after all the social.
Oh, not yet.
That's right.
Because they don't have any money left
after all the social programs.
Oh, how convenient.
So the US funds their defense.
Oh, yeah, that's wonderful.
Do you know how much money we could save from a budget
perspective if somebody else took care of our defense?
But look, the spirit of what I was getting at with these
conglomerates that are pulling the strings.
And I'm not only trying to focus on what Europe is doing,
as opposed to what the United States.
I live in the United States.
I'm trying not to be fat.
And it's just like the system is set up so it's almost,
unless you grow your own food, you're going to be fat.
It's because the food that we buy every single day,
that we believe is supposed to be healthy, isn't healthy.
It's because the FDA says that the FDA is, let me see here.
So you're saying that the ice cream that you buy and eat
every night is not healthy.
But my point is, this is the difference
between the United States and Europe.
What about the broccoli?
The United States tends to take a more reactive approach
towards regulating food and beverage ingredients,
while Europe takes a more proactive approach.
So only additives proven to be harmful are approved in Europe,
while the US food additives are innocent until proven guilty.
And it's just like, well, you know what?
It's like the chicken.
You got, what is it, Arkansas, Purdue.
You got people like Bill Clinton that,
when he was governor of Arkansas,
and Purdue wanted to put out, oh yeah,
I forget, I remember the commercial with the Purdue guy.
Oh my god.
He's got this, that old guy from Purdue.
You remember the old guy that did the chicken commercials?
No.
Well, he is funny, man, because he was like, hey,
hear this kind of name like Ross Brown.
He would talk like this.
And anyways, he paid shit loads of money for Bill Clinton
to be able to so that he could do things to the chicken
so that they can grow hormones.
They can bigger.
Bigger.
Then they got processes like they take your chicken
and they de-feather it, and then they chlorinate it.
Then they do what?
They chlorinate the fucking chicken.
Oh, that doesn't sound good.
And then after that they cleanse it to clean it.
And then after that, they take the chicken
and they send it to China.
To do what to it?
To slice and dice it.
Oh, it's alive when they send it?
No.
To slice and dice it.
And then how is that cost effective?
No, they don't do that.
I don't know if they do that.
I don't believe that.
There's no way they send the chicken over to China
to slice it up and then bring it back.
That would be not cost effective.
That would be stupid.
Well, I mean, based on what I read,
that's exactly what it said.
That they were taking the chicken
and they were sending it to China to process it.
Yeah, they grow it here and they send it to China to process.
I need further proof.
Well, maybe if the producer could look it up.
I don't know.
Is chicken sliced in China?
Yeah.
So Chinese sliced American chickens.
Google that.
That seems so highly with the cost of fuel.
Look up big chicken titties.
No.
Nude.
What the hell?
All nude.
No, you know, chicken.
How do you say that?
Chicken sliced in China, I guess.
I don't know.
Chinese prepared chicken.
Poultry poultry.
Chicken shipped to your door.
Primal.
There you go.
Right there.
Years old US a rule allows China to process US poultry.
That's five days ago.
See, metric tons.
50 metric tons down below.
Fact check, Chinese facilities and then return it
to the United States.
What?
Wait a minute.
Raw poultry from the US and export cooked products
such as chicken noodle soup and chicken nuggets.
They're not slicing chicken and sending it back.
No, read it again.
They're making food.
Gave Chinese processing plants the green light
to process raw poultry from the US and export cooked product.
And export.
OK.
Cooked product, like chicken soup.
Like Campbell's chicken soup is made in China.
Right.
So we're giving them our chickens
and then they're putting it into processed foods.
Yeah, they're not sending chickens over there.
They're butchering them and sending them back.
Again, the spirit of this conversation
is for the folks to get.
There's dudes like us out there that in the United States
citizens that need to know what's really going on.
And look, like Jeff, you said earlier or before,
it has nothing to do.
It's all about the money.
They don't give a fuck.
And if they can get away with it, that's fine.
Like Purdue, putting growth hormones
in all those chickens, you know what?
They went to Bill Clinton.
They were like, hey, hey, Bill Clinton,
I'm going to give you, I'll make you motherfucker president.
Well, guess what?
They made him fucking president.
Him and his little chicken ass voice.
And they paid millions and millions of dollars.
They had the biggest fucking chickens out there.
But then all of a sudden, you got these young boys
that all of a sudden are starting to grow fucking titties.
Eating all those little chicken nuggets from McDonald's.
And they were like, why is this happening?
Why is my daughter all of a sudden
developing boobies at the age of fucking eight?
You know, and she's got like double D's.
Well, what does she eat?
Well, we take her to McDonald's three, four times a week.
No, we buy Chinese chicken nuggets.
Because it's, well, you know, it's not just that.
It's like if you compare the foods
that we have here in the United States
that we sell right off the grocery store shelves
that they don't sell in China or Europe.
Like, they don't sell Mountain Dew.
Now a lot of this has to do with some of the dyes in it.
But Mountain Dew's not one of them.
You know, you got Mountain Dew.
Do they have their version of Mountain Dew over there?
I don't know.
I think they do, actually.
They call it Mellow Yellow.
It's called Alpine Rain.
Alpine Rain.
I'm not a fan of Mountain Dew.
You like that?
Oh, Mountain Dew.
There's like a bunch of Mountain Dew flavors out there.
I could have eaten it.
Even as a kid, I would have it every now and then.
I was never a fan of it.
Oh, I've always loved Mountain Dew.
I don't have it very often.
Super syrupy.
It's very, very sweet, yes.
It was always, even back when I was a kid,
I didn't drink a lot of soda anyway.
I was on a squirt kick.
Did you ever try squirt?
Squirt is really good.
It's poor man's amaretto sour.
You get squirt and some amaretto.
I wonder what squirt would taste like
with other mixed drinks.
Well, it's a, almost like, I don't wanna say grapefruit,
but it's a very hardcore citrus drink.
It is.
Right?
So you know how I make those apple jacks, mules?
Apple jack mules.
Yeah.
I wonder how squirt would taste in that.
I don't know, we do that periodically.
We'll get some squirts and make some amaretto.
That's exactly what I'm doing this weekend.
Again, poor man's amaretto sour.
Do we have plans this weekend?
Are you guys gonna be in town?
We need one.
Yeah, we're making product.
Yeah, we need a.
Oh, I'm busy.
No, we actually need to spend a couple hours
this coming weekend.
Two hours.
Look, back to it.
Like dairy, for example, you know, they've got.
I'll get an agamemeter.
I don't even know what these acronyms mean,
but there's hormones they put into,
artificial hormones that stimulate the milk production
in some of these cows.
You know, they don't do that in, not just over anywhere.
You know, it's just the chickens have been chlorinated.
So how do you fix this?
Well, that's just it.
There's so much more.
There's stuff that people don't even realize.
I mean, it's like the Frosted Flakes.
It's the International Coffee Creamer,
that you put in your creamer.
There it is.
There's a Frosted Flakes there.
Everything you're saying is in his list,
the producer's list of like.
Like wheat thins.
There's the little circle Ritz crackers.
I mean, they're like absolute.
Hold on, go back.
Pop tarts.
Go back about.
There you go, there's coffee mate.
There's Frosted Flakes.
Go back to the meat one.
I like Rice Krispies, damn it.
They're not good for me.
And then they got.
Oh, in the meat, for example,
they add some sort of.
What's ractopamine?
Ractopamine.
Ractatamine.
Rectal.
It increases the muscle growth inside the cow.
I think you read this article.
I think I did.
Well, I have read several articles.
It literally had everything you were saying in it.
I think this is a setup.
Well, that's what the podcast is for, isn't it?
We're supposed to do.
So you guys are giving me shit
because I did some homework.
Is that what you get?
Time out, time out.
We're supposed to wing this.
We don't research shit on this podcast.
So don't come on here and act like you know stuff.
People need to be up in arms
about the stuff that, you know,
because there are some friends that I have,
that we have, that they're allergic to gluten.
You know, and they're like,
oh, I gotta watch my diet.
I gotta be very careful what I eat.
You know, they go to Germany or they go to Europe
and it's like they can eat whatever the fuck they want.
I can't eat pasta.
They go to Italy, they can have pasta,
they can have anything.
Why?
Yeah.
I don't know.
Well, I do.
It's.
Well, it's about money.
It's about what we're putting in our food
that we're selling to the United States citizens
because we're the guinea pigs.
And you know what?
Their food is more flavorful.
Their food has more vitamins.
You know, the irony of that is
the reason why all that shit's in our food
is the biggest reason is to make it
have a longer shelf life.
Everything that started with this whole thing, right?
Right, farm to table.
Directly correlates to the reason
why our bellies are so big.
Well, I get that.
But so, so hear me out.
So, so you were just saying that
the food over there is more flavorful.
So the first one was to have it a longer shelf life.
The second one was to keep the consistency, right?
You can't have something falling apart
in the packaging, like all mushy and stuff.
So they put stuff in it to like keep it contained
and looking.
Anti-caking.
Yeah, making it look presentable, right?
So it lasts a long time.
It looks presentable while it sits on the shelf.
And there's a lot of stuff that they add
to make it artificial ingredients
to make it more flavorful.
So you're saying that the stuff in Europe
is more flavorful.
That's interesting, right?
I mean, so.
Is it more flavorful?
Well, that's what they tend to say.
That's what they're arguing, right?
And look, here's the thing.
And that's in the eye of the beholder, right?
If you're trying to be super, sorry to interrupt.
If you're trying to be super healthy
and you're trying to stay away from all those processed foods,
you're gonna find whatever you're eating
that is organic and healthy.
You're gonna say that's always wonderful.
You know what I'm saying?
So you think it's the power of suggestion?
Well, a little bit of that.
A little bit of that.
I stay away from organic food.
Well, I think this is more of a comparison from.
Because it looks nasty and it's more expensive.
Well, it's more expensive for sure.
Funny how you say it.
I don't know about nasty.
Because it looks nasty, right?
Because apples that are organic
don't have shit sprayed on them.
So guess what?
They have little marks on them
and they have bugs have gotten to them.
They're all brown and shrink
and they're not as robust.
And I'm like, I'm not gonna pay more for that
when I can get this.
Right, so obviously you don't subscribe
to the theory that regular apples
that are sprayed with a bunch of shit.
Well, you could wash those, right?
Well, but it works its way into the apples,
what they argue, right?
It's unhealthy. Well, I don't know.
From the inside out, right?
So. I don't know.
I don't know either.
But you know shit, the organics,
I don't believe it.
I was like, I'm not gonna spend double
the cost for a piece that looks like shit.
Look, the whole thing.
That's exactly.
Give me good-looking organic, then maybe we'll talk.
Alan, what the hell?
Where'd that come from?
It's a mold.
Yeah.
Jeff, that's exactly why we are where we are.
People don't want a misshapen brownish apple.
But the reality of it is that is normal.
They had to spray, yes, that is normal.
That is normal.
It's kind of like carrots aren't normally orange.
But here's the problem.
Back in the day, an apple didn't go from Washington
to Florida to be sold.
An apple went, you know what I mean?
An apple went to Seattle.
An apple went to Portland.
I think if your local Kroger wants to carry organic,
they need to hit local farms.
And then guess what?
It won't look all nasty.
Correct.
Because it's only.
This is organic from Mexico.
Well, it needs to travel.
Yeah.
Farmed and stored.
Farmed and stored and consumed within black.
In Europe.
Europe has, they've been around a lot longer
than the United States have been.
They've got the means to produce these products
and get rid of them.
So there's never really a stock,
they don't have the stockpile like we do.
It's meaning that they have the traditional farmers markets
where they go to the food.
Oh, I'll go there and buy that shit all day
because it's fresh, it looks good.
Yeah.
Right?
Whereas the organic at Market Street, Kroger,
all those places, it's like I'm not gonna buy that.
Because it can't stay that long.
Yeah, because I'm gonna take it,
I don't have to eat it immediately.
Right.
So here's what.
And it still looks like shit when I eat it.
Ultimately, what I want to raise awareness for
is to start finding out who these companies are.
And why is it that they're allowed to do what they're doing
by putting the poison in our foods?
It's the FDA and the USDA.
All right, so then we have to go after them.
So where do we set the bar?
Because like I said before, it's a, oops.
So you haven't even talked about GMO.
Well, no, not yet.
That's genetically modified, right?
So hold on, so again, the US 10s.
Do you think those are bad for you?
So they're two camps, right?
Yeah, some people think they're bad for you.
Some people, that's just like.
Right, so genetically modified means
they literally tinker with the genetics,
if there is genetics in vegetables.
Well, to make them pest resistant.
That's right, and to make them drought resistant.
Hey, there's a seed.
And the biggest reason?
There's a corn version over here that is drought resistant.
So they don't reproduce.
But it doesn't.
So you have to come back and keep buying.
Well.
And farmers, you know?
That's another one.
Yeah, we can talk about that.
That's the seeds.
But it's a, this corn variant is drought resistant,
but it doesn't taste good.
This one requires a ton of water, but it tastes great.
Let's blend the two.
Right.
And make this good tasting.
And add some sort of insecticide to it.
Yeah, then you bring this other one that says, oh, this one
is insect repellent, so let's blend them all.
Or do they literally hybridize it
with some sort of insecticide?
Well, that's my question.
I was like, if you're blending different corns,
is that bad for you?
If you're adding chemicals and shit?
Yeah, that's the question.
I get that.
That's the question.
I don't know about.
If you're cross breeding plants.
But you know what?
That's no different than grass.
I was talking to this expert that said,
if you're having a lot of trouble with your St. Augustine
and your Bermuda, go with, help me here, Zoya.
Zoya?
OK, go with Zoya.
Because Zoya has been engineered, right?
Just like fucking vegetables that we eat.
It's been engineered to be drought resistant, shade
tolerant, blah, blah, blah, blah.
So how?
I mean, we're not eating it.
I don't think that the genetically modified organic
foods, why would they be unhealthy?
So I kind of agree with that.
You know what?
We would have to dig into that.
I don't know.
I can tell you.
There's a lot of folks that are anti-aging.
There could be some digestive issues.
There could be.
There's a ton of people that are hardcore against GMO.
And one of the biggest proponents of GMO is Bill Gates.
And Bill Gates is the largest farmland holder proponent.
He is on board with it.
And he is the largest farm owner in the United States.
Correct.
Interesting.
Well, China's right behind him.
Honestly, I think he's one of those elites.
He wants to social engineer.
He wants to one world order.
He wants one world government.
And that's George Soros.
He wants one world government.
Guys, what's the fastest way to get to one world government?
Put everybody on a vaccine that will euthanize us.
No.
Tear down, tear down nationality.
Tear down the United States so that the United States doesn't,
it's not important to be American anymore.
We're at the top of the list.
Then you got to go to the other ones.
It's not that important to be British.
It's not that important to be German.
From a Polly to a Mono.
The only way you can go to a one world government
is when you tear down the walls of all nationalities.
We're just humans.
We're Earthians.
And the first way you got to do it
is bring down the United States and you do it from within.
I think you're going to have to do it.
Which is what he's doing.
He's bringing it down from within.
I think instead of nationality, you
need to bring down religion instead.
Because religion has been the root of all.
Easy.
Conflicts through the years.
So basically eradicate everybody except Christians.
Let's start burning the Bible.
So if you're like, there are no Americans,
there are no Indians, there are no Saudi Arabians.
They still have their religion.
So you're like.
Although there's always going to be something that bitterly
divides us.
I think if you're going to try to do this,
you need to tear down the religion.
This guy likes A1 sauce.
Kill him.
He's out.
No, kill him.
Pop him.
And you see the states, they're trying to kill Christianity.
Right?
Right.
And the white male.
Are they doing that over in Iraq?
Are they trying to kill Islam?
No.
Right?
Are they trying to kill?
I don't know.
Britain may be trying to do the same thing.
They're actually trying to adopt some of the Muslims.
The religion and culture or the Sharia law,
they're trying to embed it into the fabric of our community
laws.
It's failed so far.
So far.
But I mean.
Has it failed?
Because I remember Irving.
Irving tried.
Yeah, it failed there.
But so they no longer have a Sharia law court?
I don't know about that.
What do you mean?
It was a Sharia law court.
It's not legal.
It wasn't a court court.
It was a court.
Granted, it wasn't a law.
It had no legal binding.
It was not legal binding.
It was religious binding.
It was like, actually it was cultural binding.
It wasn't even religious.
It's kind of like the one thing you're right.
But the thing is, if that Sharia law says, all right,
you could beat your wife.
Well, the American law trumps that and says,
I'm going to throw you in prison for beating your wife.
Correct.
But there were other things.
I think that the way what they were touting is it
was civil disputes, right?
Like the way they're supposed to, like there's, you know,
it's kind of like the Old Testament.
Have you guys ever read all the rules about the Old Testament?
There's a ton of stuff in there that
talks about how the old Jewish community needed
to handle legal issues and stuff like that.
Well, it's no different.
The Sharia law is the same thing, right?
If it wasn't, you know what I mean?
It was ways to handle certain disputes and stuff like that.
None of them affecting American law.
Does that make sense?
Oh, yeah, that's what we would do.
We would literally steal your beer.
That's the way podcasters are.
Dudes like us are.
Did you finish it?
Oh, shit, my bad.
I did.
I did drink your beer.
I'm kidding.
A hole.
Did you leave it at home?
What, did it fall on the floor?
Is it downstairs?
I don't know.
Did it fall on the floor and leak in all over the place?
No.
Let's take a pause because this is important.
No, I was just kind of like.
Is it behind you?
Unbelievable.
You're a mess.
He's panicking.
It was not behind me.
It's not here.
He is panicking because he can't find his beer.
Is it underneath the hat?
Oh, my bad.
Son of a bitch.
It's not under the hat.
OK, we'll get you.
We'll find your beer.
OK, I just.
I thought if it was.
Hold on.
Is your bourbon empty?
Wow.
So you're panicking.
Your bourbon's empty.
Your beer is missing.
I see the angst now.
Well, I get it.
All I see these these glasses that I purchased for you guys.
We got the gay month with the OK.
That's not the right terminology.
Happy month.
It's pride month.
Pride.
You know, pride pride isn't pride part
of one of the things against the Catholic Church.
It's a group of to be prideful.
Yeah, you're not supposed to be.
Isn't a sin.
It is.
So it's funny you say that.
So it's really interesting you say that, actually.
I'm being serious, actually.
I mean, they call pride month.
I'm doing a word sale of like AOC.
I'm saying actually three times.
No, that would be.
That would be Camilla.
Oh, God.
My bad.
I got to apologize.
So I purchased these from work.
That's Tumblr's.
Yeah, they're not very gay.
No, they're stylish.
They have the little rainbow on them
and little go fast stripes.
And there's a company logo on there.
And I put your names on there.
And I got to be honest, I'm a little disappointed
in the quality of.
I went and I.
And what is it made?
It's made in.
Oh, it is made in China.
I thought it was made in Brazil.
But those are the cutting.
Those are the cutting boards.
Yeah.
Well, they did China.
So they are made in China.
By the way, dudes like us is producing cutting boards
through our CNC machine, which will be available
downtown McKinney, Texas at filtered.
Filtered.
I thought they were manufactured in China.
Which ones?
They were not.
And I thought we were selling them in China.
They're manufactured.
We'll send them over there for them to cut them.
We'll bring them back.
We'll do something else.
We'll send them back to China.
So they were handmade in Texas.
The reason why I purchased these cups isn't because of third pride
month.
The reason why I purchased these bugs
was because the donation went to somebody
that works in our company.
And they've got acquired immune deficiency syndrome.
AIDS.
Well, they got AIDS, yeah.
So you know.
So you know, monkeypox is apparently along those lines.
You know what?
I heard that monkeypox, the only people that are getting monkeypox
are the folks that are vaccinated.
Are you serious?
Absolutely.
That's exactly what they said.
They said that the only, in fact,
homosexual men that have been vaccinated.
Monkeypox is a side effect of the vaccine.
But it's homosexual men that are getting it.
Wow.
You didn't know that?
Very interesting.
And it's like you have to have like excretions and stuff.
It's not easily transmissible from what I read.
Wow.
So it's semen and shit.
And blood.
Wow.
This took a dark turn.
Yeah, you know, I'm going to, you know,
I went from giving you guys a nice gesture.
I give you a fucking cup with a little rainbow on there.
And I was like, hey, guys, I love you.
Nice unicorn, rainbow.
And it went to a good cause for my company.
And I was a little disappointed at first.
I was kind of like, I purchased these.
And they were like, oh, that's a nice donation.
I was like, it's because it's for fucking three tumblers.
And they sent me one tumbler.
And I was like, hey.
Hey.
And then I thought, I was like, whatever.
I guess I just overpay for one.
I'll get it.
And those showed up.
And I was so excited.
Yeah, me too.
Well, it's got the spectrum of colors on there.
It's got a nice little rainbow.
That's great.
I don't know what we're going to use it for.
Which, by the way, the rainbow, it
makes me disgusted that the rainbow has been stolen
from what its original intent was, from the Bible.
It is God's covenant that he will never flood the Earth
again.
And now look at what it means.
I thought it had to do with leprechauns and pots of gold.
No.
Well, that too.
I don't think that part's in the Bible, though.
Rumpelstiltskin is not in the Genesis?
Rumpelstiltskin?
No, I'm not sure.
The book of Rumpelstiltskin?
Probably the book of Revelations.
OK.
And the storm and clouds came in.
And I was sewing up a batch of petty pudding.
And wow, are you ad libbing this?
What the hell's wrong with you?
I was going to do it.
If he gets another four ounces of Baker's 7,
this is going to be a dangerous podcast.
It's going to be the second bad second half.
So getting back to the foods.
Foods.
So it sounds like a lot of snack type foods and processed foods.
But you can get hamburger and pizzas and shit like that.
But look, it's not.
What does that mean?
You can get those.
What does that mean?
They have flour.
They can make pizza doughs.
Look, man.
So I try to stay away from that processed food as much as possible.
Oh, I got you.
I got you.
What I was trying to get at.
What I was trying to get at is that we
have folks that are supposed to be looking out for us.
FDA, USDA.
Yeah.
Talk about the money.
That's what's frustrating.
So that's why I'm saying we need to.
But they don't think it's bad.
Well, it is bad.
They're trying to improve the food supply.
It's kind of like the studies for the COVID.
Anything that shows any kind of negative reflection gets bumped away.
And they have so many different tests that are suggesting otherwise.
And those doctors are being shunned.
And they're losing their jobs, et cetera, et cetera.
So the US tends to be reactive versus proactive.
And it's like our food is innocent until proven guilty.
Where if you want to sell this, it seems like it would be the opposite.
Because look, if you have this medicine, they
have to run the medicine through a test.
So it's got to be innocent.
It's got to be proven innocent.
Guilty until proven innocent.
I think our food should be the same thing.
Except the COVID vaccine.
So in Europe, if they want to come out with a new candy bar.
Called I'm Horny.
There's a, yes, called I'm Horny.
And there's a new process to make this nougat or whatever.
So they have to test that, like go through trials.
Well, from what I understand is that if there's, well, it depends.
If you have the basic ingredients that are already FDA or their version
of FDA approved.
There's a new form of nougat or something in the middle of this.
Hey, look, if you've got some sort of unknown thing.
I guess what we're going to do, guys, we're
going to add this chemical to it, to the nougat,
because it's going to make it a little bit softer.
People are complaining about chipping the teeth.
So we're going to, you know, it's like when we freeze the candy bars,
they're so frozen it hurts our teeth.
It's kind of like ice cream.
You know, when they were freezing the ice cream,
it was a block of fucking ice.
Now they've added all this shit to the ice cream so that whatever you.
It's nice and soft.
You take the ice cream out of the refrigerator, the freezer.
It's like a flask of penis.
It's still fucking, yeah, it's still coming out.
You can put it right in your fucking bowl and scoop it.
It's not the way it was supposed to be.
It's not fucking ice cream.
The word is ice, not slushy.
I don't think I've ever bought a tub of ice cream from the store where
it's just exactly what you're saying.
I'm always having to chip it out of there.
But that's my point is that we've been under this umbrella, this facade,
for so long that we're oblivious to it.
Right. But think about it.
Milk. Can you freeze a gallon of milk?
Yes. Is it going to be soft?
Yeah, it turns kind of slushy.
It's a fucking block of ice when it's in there, you know?
That's what I'm saying. You got ice.
You got milk. You got sugar. But ice cream is not milk.
It's not ice cream.
It's they've they've turned it.
They've turned it into some creams.
Can I pause for a second? You're starting to you're starting to sound like crazy.
Buzz Lightyear. I know.
Do you remember when his eyes got cuckoo in the movie?
His eyes went cuckoo and he was like, oh, but it drives me crazy.
It's like, how do you fucking?
I mean, you put this shit in your body and it's like, you know,
like right now, I can't eat ice cream.
Every time I eat ice cream, I get sick. I can't. I can't.
I'm telling you, because my kids, they love ice cream.
You can be lactose intolerant.
Well, how much are you eating?
Like, I don't know.
Could be it. I don't know.
It's a bowl. It's a bowl.
It's a big bowl.
He's a big salad bowl, but it's a bowl.
He sticks his David Bowie knife and sticks it into the ice cream.
Just starts eating the whole freaking gallon.
It's a popsicle. Is that something wrong with that?
No. But look, it's a bowie.
Ice cream isn't supposed to be like that.
There are chemicals that keep that shit soft.
That's my guess.
And those chemicals cannot be good for you.
Well, we've had this conversation about looking at the ingredients.
Yes. If it's if it has like fuck, are you going to know?
No, when it's an eight syllable word, what the hell that shit is.
That is exactly the point. That's called obfuscation.
If there's more than like four ingredients start to be worried.
Right. That's your.
Look, we're starting to see more and more stuff that says six ingredients.
Have you ever have you ever seen the ingredients of Lay's potato chips?
That's another thing. No, no, no.
You got to stop it.
It is it is salt potato vegetable oil.
Vegetable oil is the worst thing you can fry potato chips with.
Whatever. But you see my point.
It is that that's the kind of ingredient I'm not.
Don't get me started on this process.
Oils that we use to to to to fry our foods.
That stuff is horrible.
Hydrogenated versus partially hydrogenated versus not hydrogenated.
I get it. It is even more worse than that.
I don't even know what oil to use anymore.
I mean, sunflower seed oil. Horrible for you. Peanut.
Peanut oil. I don't know what kind of clan you're hanging out with.
Peanuts. Peanuts.
What do you say? Peanuts.
I thought peanuts were like the worst peanuts to eat.
So why would you want to eat the oil?
It's a jar of coagulated semen.
Jesus Christ. What ship are you hanging on?
Well, that's peanut oil.
You deep fry in that guy.
Is this the Top Gun program you've been working on?
I don't know. You and your semen group.
Monkey semen. Sailors.
I don't know. What about olive oils?
Well, you know, the olive oils are supposed to.
I know you give Paul shit because he buys like the bad guy.
Oh, my God. He got all over my ass.
I did. Oh, my God. You're buying the light glass.
Look, you know what? You can't buy the light glass.
I come out. I get the dark glass.
I was right.
But it goes even further than that because I'm thinking, all right,
well, what is what are Paul's options?
You know, and I'm thinking, well, what did I buy?
And then I started digging into what I bought.
And my body, what I bought was better,
but it was still fucked up.
And I was like, as 100 percent virgin olives.
What are you supposed to go up by then? Right.
You know, well, they could say whatever they want.
They could take a fucking shit in a box and fucking sell it to you.
And it's still going to pass.
Yeah, but there's laws, right?
That says you're supposed to FDA.
What they say. They want to be reactive, not proactive.
Well, when you buy it, when you buy the oil, it says 100 percent virgin olives.
And we're at a point in the United States.
So what if you guys want that one partner olives?
Oh, one partner olives, not virgin, but one partner.
We're at a point in the United States where if you start to lay blame to anything,
they're going to come like, hey, look, you don't blame us because you're fat,
because you've been using our olive oil, all right,
because you've been going down to fucking McDonald's
and motherfucking burger and whatever.
And you've been eating all this processed meat.
You can't blame us for that.
Right. But you can.
I don't know.
The foods are a big issue right now because I'm troubled
because I have to eat every day and I'm afraid to eat.
OK, well, I let me correct you that you don't have to eat every day.
Well, you don't have to eat.
You have to eat. There are some people that fast.
Shut up. You could fast.
I look, I'm eating less now than I have ever let you know what?
I give Jeff shit because he and his wife split food all the time.
And you know what my wife and I did last night?
You split food. Yeah.
And it was perfectly fine, wasn't it? Yeah.
And then you wake up at one o'clock in the morning and like sneak downstairs
and start binge eating everything.
Yeah, he was giving me shit because we split a Mexican, you know, big Mexican meal.
No, we are so full of shit.
His plate was like two enchiladas.
Ten pounds of food.
Come on. Get the fuck out of here.
Get the fuck out of here.
You hold on, you ordered two enchiladas and you ate one.
It was a combo plate.
Here's this rationale.
There can't be two enchiladas on a combo plate.
It was a combo plate.
So you have like a cheese enchilada, beef enchilada,
you have taco and guacamole.
There was more shit on the plate. Come on.
You get your beans and rice.
There was more shit on the plate.
Because you had half of them.
I had my own. I had a full plate.
No, I had one bowl of chips.
Listen, guys.
Our first half is done.
I know I've been away.
We're back.
I've been away. I've been away.
I need to help you guys out.
I know you've been squabbling.
All right. Well, my name's Paul.
I'm Jeff.
Wow.
And I think we're still doing the second half, so we'll catch you later.
