00:00:17.850 --> 00:00:23.890
What's up, everyone? Welcome to Season 2, Episode

00:00:23.890 --> 00:00:27.690
2 of the Mark Mo Show. My name is Mark Maloney,

00:00:27.989 --> 00:00:33.229
your host, along with AK219. Aidan, spelled the

00:00:33.229 --> 00:00:37.329
right way. Aidan Maloney, how are you? Pretty

00:00:37.329 --> 00:00:41.109
bueno, I would say. Doing fantastic. That's good.

00:00:41.429 --> 00:00:43.649
I'm happy every time the weekend approaches,

00:00:43.689 --> 00:00:46.539
and I'm sad whenever it leaves me. Oh, no doubt.

00:00:47.020 --> 00:00:50.320
Yeah. No doubt. There's people out there whose

00:00:50.320 --> 00:00:53.719
favorite day of the week is Sunday. That's scary.

00:00:53.899 --> 00:00:57.880
Now, barring like NFL season. Sure. I kind of

00:00:57.880 --> 00:01:01.859
get that a little bit. But like nothing brings

00:01:01.859 --> 00:01:06.379
me more dread and depression than like late on

00:01:06.379 --> 00:01:08.920
a Sunday afternoon, early Sunday evening. We're

00:01:08.920 --> 00:01:12.760
like, oh no. Oh no, we got to do this all over

00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:15.920
again. Fucking Monday. Oh, make it stop. Did

00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:19.159
I win the lottery? I did not. Yeah. Yeah. It's

00:01:19.159 --> 00:01:23.400
not my favorite. No, I agree. Like you said,

00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:26.579
that Sunday afternoon depression is whack. It's

00:01:26.579 --> 00:01:29.640
real. But, you know, it's equally countered,

00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:32.900
I would say, by the Friday afternoon, Saturday

00:01:32.900 --> 00:01:35.700
morning hopefulness, you know? I would agree.

00:01:35.739 --> 00:01:37.719
That you actually get to feel like a human being

00:01:37.719 --> 00:01:39.739
for a day and a half. I know. Isn't that crazy?

00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:42.489
Interesting how capitalism does that. and makes

00:01:42.489 --> 00:01:44.810
you feel negatively about days of the week. About

00:01:44.810 --> 00:01:46.609
days of the week and times. It's unbelievable.

00:01:46.849 --> 00:01:50.629
And, like, I saw this quote, too. I forget who

00:01:50.629 --> 00:01:53.370
it's from. I just don't know who to attribute

00:01:53.370 --> 00:01:55.989
it to, but it was like, I don't hate Mondays.

00:01:56.290 --> 00:02:00.329
I hate capitalism. And it's so true. That's fair.

00:02:00.530 --> 00:02:02.290
It's like, there's a reason you hate Mondays.

00:02:02.609 --> 00:02:04.829
Spell out the reason. Oh, there's your answer.

00:02:05.189 --> 00:02:07.709
Oh, yeah, for sure. Yeah, there's no question.

00:02:08.669 --> 00:02:12.659
But it is not Monday. It is not late on a Sunday,

00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:15.560
at least not at the time of this recording, so

00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:17.969
thank you for that. Damn right. Thank you for

00:02:17.969 --> 00:02:20.490
that. Praise be. But at any rate, we're going

00:02:20.490 --> 00:02:23.009

have some one -off interviews coming your way

their podcast platforms and YouTube and all that.

00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:02.719
But more importantly, where most of the new content's

00:03:02.719 --> 00:03:06.039
going is Aiden, spelled the right way. Once again,

00:03:06.379 --> 00:03:10.020
podcast, YouTube. YouTube gaming, lots of YouTube

00:03:10.020 --> 00:03:12.199
gaming. So why don't you tell the fine folks

00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:14.219
what they can expect. It's been a phenomenal

00:03:14.219 --> 00:03:18.199
time. I think this is approximately my one year

00:03:18.199 --> 00:03:22.439
anniversary on like the regular YouTube uploads

00:03:22.439 --> 00:03:26.280
on my personal channel. Oh, happy birthday. Thanks.

00:03:26.620 --> 00:03:30.659
It's good to birth. What does that mean? Wow.

00:03:31.819 --> 00:03:34.639
It fell apart as it was exiting my mind. Ladies

00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:37.240
and gentlemen, if you've ever witnessed an auto

00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:41.280
accident, our show just did that. We just rear

00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:44.300
-ended reality. It's like watching a plane crash.

00:03:44.479 --> 00:03:47.400
You can't tune out. You really can't. But yeah,

00:03:47.560 --> 00:03:49.520
it's fantastic. I've been having a lot of fun

00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:53.199
with it. It's kind of a 50 -50 split between

00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:57.199
fun games and sp - spooky, scary kind of games.

00:03:58.159 --> 00:04:01.180
And the one that's coming out today as this podcast

00:04:01.180 --> 00:04:05.020
drops is one called The Mortuary Assistant. Oh.

00:04:05.300 --> 00:04:09.319
Which is remarkably fun and I may end up covering

00:04:09.319 --> 00:04:11.319
at some point in the While You Were Sleeping,

00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:15.439
but it's not this week. Okay. Hints While You

00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:18.120
Were Sleeping is coming up, but it's been a lot

00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:21.079
of fun. So if after you're finished listening

00:04:21.079 --> 00:04:23.680
to the Mark Mo Show, maybe check out the Mortuary

00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:25.279
Assistant on Aiden's Spilled the Right Way. Could

00:04:25.279 --> 00:04:28.360
be fun if you're into spooky games. Yeah, I would

00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:32.160
highly recommend it. I always found that like

00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:36.500
a creepy deal, right? It's like I've had to bury

00:04:36.500 --> 00:04:40.139
loved ones. I've had friends that have passed

00:04:40.139 --> 00:04:43.980
one. But like the people that do that, and trust

00:04:43.980 --> 00:04:47.660
me, I'm now in the industry, so to speak, but

00:04:47.660 --> 00:04:49.899
I always found it just interesting. You have

00:04:49.899 --> 00:04:54.720
this person that used to golf and go to the office

00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:58.019
and plant trees and do like, and there they are.

00:04:58.060 --> 00:05:00.819
Yeah. And now they're a cadaver. They're just

00:05:00.819 --> 00:05:03.379
a, you know, I would find it really hard to just

00:05:03.379 --> 00:05:05.319
like sit there and not want to poke them in the

00:05:05.319 --> 00:05:09.839
cheek, be like, Hey, right. Hey, okay. Just to

00:05:09.839 --> 00:05:12.160
make sure. Right. They're like, they didn't have

00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:14.720
a little bit of juice left somewhere. Yeah. It

00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:18.759
seems like it'd be such a disorientating phenomenon.

00:05:18.939 --> 00:05:21.259
to do, at least for the first couple times, you

00:05:21.259 --> 00:05:23.120
know, before you get used to it. It's like, oh,

00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:26.839
for sure. If you make your career out of deceased

00:05:26.839 --> 00:05:29.339
people, I mean, good on you. The work needs to

00:05:29.339 --> 00:05:33.199
be done, right? But it's so it's so hard to picture.

00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:37.180
It is, you know, it is. And the most amazing

00:05:37.180 --> 00:05:39.800
thing, because we talk about capitalism and how,

00:05:40.740 --> 00:05:44.939
at least for average people. Just the whole idea

00:05:44.939 --> 00:05:47.620
of it and the concept and and just on a daily

00:05:47.620 --> 00:05:50.699
practice Just causes undue stress and everything

00:05:50.699 --> 00:05:54.519
else, right? But for someone that works there

00:05:54.519 --> 00:05:57.920
Dude's not gonna complain if you f up right?

00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:01.560
Yeah, he's not gonna say we like hey ass. That's

00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:05.899
my eyelid You know you mess up be like, oh, I

00:06:05.899 --> 00:06:08.000
need more glue the right, you know, you'll see

00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:11.509
you'll figure it out Yeah, so in a way Probably

00:06:11.509 --> 00:06:14.410
not a bad gig. Right. That is true. That's a

00:06:14.410 --> 00:06:17.430
thought. I wonder how much mortuary workers get

00:06:17.430 --> 00:06:22.470
paid. Or like those who do like examinations

00:06:22.470 --> 00:06:25.069
for like criminal cases or something like that.

00:06:25.430 --> 00:06:27.209
It's got to be a decent amount of money because

00:06:27.209 --> 00:06:29.990
not a lot of people want to do that, right? No.

00:06:31.129 --> 00:06:34.139
Curious. Yeah. Mean I want to meet like a little

00:06:34.139 --> 00:06:36.699
eight or nine year old kid. It's like a mom and

00:06:36.699 --> 00:06:40.500
dad You know I was thinking I I want I want to

00:06:40.500 --> 00:06:42.759
I want to I want to take care of dead people

00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:47.300
and and take on their blood and Then dress them

00:06:47.300 --> 00:06:50.600
up all fancy for the their sleeping bed for permanent

00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:53.550
like sleeping bed it's like okay billy let's

00:06:53.550 --> 00:06:57.370
get you your pills now exactly billy there's

00:06:57.370 --> 00:06:59.670
a did you get hit with the baseball again okay

00:06:59.670 --> 00:07:01.990
yeah i'm just checking third time this week bill

00:07:01.990 --> 00:07:04.209
third time this week god now he wants to work

00:07:04.209 --> 00:07:09.689
in mortuary business oh god oh man but anyway

00:07:09.689 --> 00:07:12.089
i don't know how we got there but we did we did

00:07:12.089 --> 00:07:15.389
as we do and uh we're now going to get on to

00:07:15.389 --> 00:07:18.089
a little conversation based on experience that

00:07:18.089 --> 00:07:22.699
i had recently not with dead people Awww. I mean,

00:07:22.759 --> 00:07:25.519
I know, I know, I just... They're not dead people

00:07:25.519 --> 00:07:27.819
yet. Right. You gotta look at the optimistic

00:07:27.819 --> 00:07:31.560
side. Exactly. It's just like, you're all gonna

00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:34.519
be dead. Every one of you. Two things in life

00:07:34.519 --> 00:07:41.740
are certain. Yeah. Anyway. So, I spend several

00:07:41.740 --> 00:07:44.699
nights per week at a local bar. It's my bar.

00:07:45.459 --> 00:07:50.060
Not to get... ...shwasted or anything. But to

00:07:50.060 --> 00:07:54.199
have a few beers chat with a few other locals

00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:57.279
Catch a game on the telly listen to some good

00:07:57.279 --> 00:07:59.639
tunes all that kind of stuff, right? So however,

00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:02.699
I always seem to get an interesting conversations

00:08:02.699 --> 00:08:06.300
with people. I've never met before and but to

00:08:06.300 --> 00:08:09.680
be quite frank It's just how I meet people, and

00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:11.339
I meet a lot of people that way, and I have,

00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:14.060
since I've started doing this, is kind of a routine,

00:08:14.079 --> 00:08:16.279
really. It's kind of the fun part of bars, you

00:08:16.279 --> 00:08:18.500
know? It really is. It's just like, you know,

00:08:18.500 --> 00:08:20.019
I'm not getting schwaisted. I mean, if you're

00:08:20.019 --> 00:08:22.300
there at 2 a .m., you're gonna see the ugly side

00:08:22.300 --> 00:08:24.620
of it, but sure, there's a lot of other sides

00:08:24.620 --> 00:08:26.819
that are fun, they're exciting, you're meeting

00:08:26.819 --> 00:08:29.240
people, it's like all good stuff. But at any

00:08:29.240 --> 00:08:32.039
rate, so these two women sit next to me at the

00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:35.649
end of the bar. They're 23 24 something like

00:08:35.649 --> 00:08:38.210
that, and they're just out of school Apparently

00:08:38.210 --> 00:08:40.690
single and I listened to them for a while because

00:08:40.690 --> 00:08:42.950
they're right next to me It's how the bar works

00:08:42.950 --> 00:08:47.250
and one of the women was certainly a Karen in

00:08:47.250 --> 00:08:50.789
training no question She was way too young attractive

00:08:50.789 --> 00:08:53.389
and intelligent to be that negative about everything

00:08:53.389 --> 00:08:56.429
I was just shocked at any rate her other friend

00:08:56.429 --> 00:08:58.610
was much more chill seemed to just kind of want

00:08:58.610 --> 00:09:01.210
to Enjoy the moment. Let the chips fall where

00:09:01.210 --> 00:09:03.250
they make which I totally respect that approach

00:09:03.250 --> 00:09:05.210
because that's usually my strategy when I go

00:09:05.210 --> 00:09:08.509
out drinking and I have a good time 90 some odd

00:09:08.509 --> 00:09:11.129
percent of the time right sure Because that's

00:09:11.129 --> 00:09:14.230
I don't expect much But my goal is like I'm gonna

00:09:14.230 --> 00:09:15.950
have a good time and if I can make someone else

00:09:15.950 --> 00:09:18.289
there I don't know have a good time Success.

00:09:18.289 --> 00:09:21.850
It's a bonus. It's a bonus, right? So kit Karen

00:09:21.850 --> 00:09:25.409
and training was bagging on some guys. It was

00:09:25.409 --> 00:09:27.490
social media or tinder or something like that

00:09:27.490 --> 00:09:30.320
I don't know what it was but We're just criticizing

00:09:30.320 --> 00:09:32.799
the bar scene is a place to like meet attractive

00:09:32.799 --> 00:09:36.480
smart men and pondering life's greatest question

00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:42.080
Why are we even here? I Know she met the bar

00:09:42.080 --> 00:09:45.000
But I'm sure deep down based on the entire conversation

00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:48.899
that she probably met more than that sure so

00:09:48.899 --> 00:09:53.340
I decided to have some fun Time to play my cards.

00:09:53.340 --> 00:09:56.100
I play my card. So I looked at them and I asked

00:09:56.100 --> 00:10:00.610
why are you here? Kit was a bit taken back by

00:10:00.610 --> 00:10:03.190
the question her friend seemed a little amused

00:10:03.190 --> 00:10:07.629
and she's like pardon and I'm like I replied

00:10:07.629 --> 00:10:11.330
that she asked her friend why you were even here

00:10:11.330 --> 00:10:13.669
and After listening to the last few minutes.

00:10:13.669 --> 00:10:17.409
I'm really wondering why you're here Well, we

00:10:17.409 --> 00:10:19.850
just stopped in for a quick drink and then we're

00:10:19.850 --> 00:10:22.289
just gonna like bounce after that or something

00:10:22.289 --> 00:10:24.470
With that being stated. I looked there. I'm like,

00:10:24.590 --> 00:10:26.230
well, you just kind of answered your own question.

00:10:26.490 --> 00:10:30.009
Yes And her friend giggled, which is great. And

00:10:30.009 --> 00:10:33.350
the kid's like, I will refer to her as Kit, because

00:10:33.350 --> 00:10:36.070
I don't know her name. Or Protect the Innocent,

00:10:36.230 --> 00:10:38.929
right? Right. I guess, but that isn't really

00:10:38.929 --> 00:10:41.269
what I meant. And I immediately responded, I

00:10:41.269 --> 00:10:44.330
have a feeling I know what you mean. You would

00:10:44.330 --> 00:10:46.850
like to meet a couple of good looking guys, preferably

00:10:46.850 --> 00:10:51.029
with a job and a decent IQ. Looks probably secondary

00:10:51.029 --> 00:10:53.889
in your criteria. Now her girlfriend sitting

00:10:53.889 --> 00:10:56.720
next to her kind of nodded. Sure. And I could

00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:58.399
tell Kit was kind of searching for a response,

00:10:58.440 --> 00:11:00.940
like she wanted to clap back. But she wasn't

00:11:00.940 --> 00:11:04.399
fast enough. Sadly, she didn't know that she

00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:06.639
was mastering, or that she was messing with the

00:11:06.639 --> 00:11:09.299
master of quick wit, and a low -level menace,

00:11:09.299 --> 00:11:12.240
to be fair. Sure. I said, look, you sit next

00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:14.120
to an older guy, degree from Loyola University

00:11:14.120 --> 00:11:17.039
of Chicago, successful in business, has a podcast,

00:11:17.179 --> 00:11:20.340
a radio show, I'm a writer, I'm an emcee, member

00:11:20.340 --> 00:11:22.460
of a local chamber, but because you have this

00:11:22.460 --> 00:11:24.960
wall and moat built up around you, you'd never

00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:28.460
know if I hadn't told you. Obviously, you've

00:11:28.460 --> 00:11:30.700
had a problem with douchebags in the past. And

00:11:30.700 --> 00:11:33.639
I know, douchebags and fuckboys run rampant in

00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:35.879
your age group. I get it. That's a lot of them.

00:11:36.080 --> 00:11:38.320
There's a lot. I said, but expand your world.

00:11:38.500 --> 00:11:41.240
Don't discount bars like this as a place to meet

00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:43.519
someone. I said, you might just be surprised.

00:11:44.379 --> 00:11:48.470
Now, Kit looked shocked at my response. And her

00:11:48.470 --> 00:11:50.450
friend reached for my hand and introduced herself,

00:11:50.570 --> 00:11:52.990
and then I gave her my name, and so we just started

00:11:52.990 --> 00:11:56.889
making some small talk. Kit was immediately cashing

00:11:56.889 --> 00:12:00.029
out. Oh, sure. She was immediately cashing out.

00:12:00.509 --> 00:12:03.370
She's just like, well, I still don't know why

00:12:03.370 --> 00:12:05.509
I'm here. You know, and she's just, Kit's ready

00:12:05.509 --> 00:12:10.409
to bolt. So she closes out. They left. I'm not

00:12:10.409 --> 00:12:13.149
sure I got through to Kit or not. She gave me

00:12:13.149 --> 00:12:15.470
kind of a side smile and a nice to meet you.

00:12:15.629 --> 00:12:18.850
like just being cordial, whatever. But the friend,

00:12:19.070 --> 00:12:21.250
well let's just say I made an impression and

00:12:21.250 --> 00:12:22.690
I think at the very least helped make her night

00:12:22.690 --> 00:12:24.350
a little bit better than listening to Negative

00:12:24.350 --> 00:12:28.590
Nancy all night long. Sure. I'm sorry, Kit. So

00:12:28.590 --> 00:12:32.929
I just found that whole interaction very, very

00:12:32.929 --> 00:12:36.870
amusing. Now based on the fact that they are

00:12:36.870 --> 00:12:41.330
not Gen X. Sure. And they're in your generation.

00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:46.480
It is kind of like me to ask you like and I'm

00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:50.940
sure I'm sure there's other women this age That

00:12:50.940 --> 00:12:53.480
all kind of jaded is the right word. I'm not

00:12:53.480 --> 00:12:57.500
sure what it is. I'm not sure they know But to

00:12:57.500 --> 00:13:00.200
me, it's like they go out right they go out and

00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:02.580
they have fun And I know some of this age bracket

00:13:02.580 --> 00:13:05.179
and they totally have fun But as it comes to

00:13:05.179 --> 00:13:07.639
like interpersonal communication and like what

00:13:07.639 --> 00:13:09.840
they want in life or what they may want in a

00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:12.779
partner I don't think most of them have a fucking

00:13:12.779 --> 00:13:17.799
clue. Yeah, and it's tough, too, because I think

00:13:17.799 --> 00:13:21.440
Gen Z, and they seem Gen Z -age from what you

00:13:21.440 --> 00:13:24.539
described. Gen Z is kind of the first generation

00:13:24.539 --> 00:13:30.379
where the latter half of their youth included

00:13:30.379 --> 00:13:32.559
the internet, right? Sure. Oh yeah, big time.

00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:36.440
And especially in teenage years and college years,

00:13:36.539 --> 00:13:40.879
which they seem to be in or shortly after. It's

00:13:40.879 --> 00:13:43.519
like all internet, you know, it's it's past the

00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:48.419
days of AOL and MySpace and now you're in MetaHell

00:13:48.419 --> 00:13:53.600
and Reddit and Twitter and it's it's kind of

00:13:53.600 --> 00:13:56.519
a nightmare and the nightmare got worse in my

00:13:56.519 --> 00:13:58.059
opinion and I don't want to speak for a whole

00:13:58.059 --> 00:14:02.659
generation that's not wise to do but in my opinion

00:14:02.659 --> 00:14:09.639
it became worse during COVID. Because everyone's

00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:13.539
locked inside. Everyone is chronically online.

00:14:15.159 --> 00:14:19.960
And I think it affected Millennials and Gen Z

00:14:19.960 --> 00:14:24.600
kind of the worst. Because as you're reaching

00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:30.679
that age of late teens, early 20s, and then all

00:14:30.679 --> 00:14:32.080
of a sudden, hey, you're going to have to spend

00:14:32.080 --> 00:14:36.159
the next year and a half inside. What else do

00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:38.990
you have to do besides be online? And one thing

00:14:38.990 --> 00:14:41.710
you and I both know very well is the fact that

00:14:41.710 --> 00:14:45.269
being online, especially social media, and social

00:14:45.269 --> 00:14:47.190
media is a wide term, but I know you know what

00:14:47.190 --> 00:14:52.870
I mean. Being on social media is overall a remarkably

00:14:52.870 --> 00:14:58.250
negative experience. There are deep studies that

00:14:58.250 --> 00:15:00.710
show the longer you spend on Facebook, the worse

00:15:00.710 --> 00:15:03.529
you feel, and the worse you feel about yourself.

00:15:05.049 --> 00:15:07.629
A year and a half of that during some important

00:15:07.629 --> 00:15:12.049
developmental years in, you know, Gen Z life,

00:15:12.570 --> 00:15:14.970
surrounded by the negativity online, I think

00:15:14.970 --> 00:15:18.990
can make people jaded or disgruntled to even

00:15:18.990 --> 00:15:21.690
interact with people in real life. Yeah. You

00:15:21.690 --> 00:15:26.730
know? Or, especially losing out on that year

00:15:26.730 --> 00:15:29.549
and a half of actual face -to -face talking,

00:15:30.330 --> 00:15:32.330
it can make it difficult to know how to start

00:15:32.330 --> 00:15:35.139
a conversation or be open to one. even in the

00:15:35.139 --> 00:15:38.179
first place. So, you know, in this situation

00:15:38.179 --> 00:15:41.320
that you brought up, being with a close friend,

00:15:41.460 --> 00:15:45.259
it's very easy to just, you know, shut it down,

00:15:45.259 --> 00:15:46.740
just talk to your close friend, because that's

00:15:46.740 --> 00:15:48.200
who you know, you know, that's who you went out

00:15:48.200 --> 00:15:51.700
with. And not really open up to people or even

00:15:51.700 --> 00:15:54.440
speak out loud negatively about the idea of talking

00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:58.919
to other people. So, like I get it, right? I

00:15:58.919 --> 00:16:00.480
get it because I kind of went through the same

00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:04.320
thing. I'm still kind of a shy... introverted

00:16:04.320 --> 00:16:08.159
type person, but Like I have no trouble holding

00:16:08.159 --> 00:16:13.100
a conversation or talking to randos so It could

00:16:13.100 --> 00:16:16.000
just be an individual thing right it could be

00:16:16.000 --> 00:16:19.539
because you said This lady's friend had no issue

00:16:19.539 --> 00:16:22.519
being a little more jovial So she gone there

00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:24.279
by herself like her, and I probably would have

00:16:24.279 --> 00:16:27.659
just had a conversation sure yeah, so I don't

00:16:27.659 --> 00:16:31.200
think it's a generational thing purely I think

00:16:31.200 --> 00:16:36.690
Gen Z was affected to a different degree from

00:16:36.690 --> 00:16:41.110
COVID and social media than perhaps Gen Xers

00:16:41.110 --> 00:16:47.350
and Boomers were. Like with most things, it's

00:16:47.350 --> 00:16:49.710
easy to generalize, but it's definitely more

00:16:49.710 --> 00:16:52.230
of an individual thing than a generational thing.

00:16:52.590 --> 00:16:56.330
A generational thing? Yeah. Okay. That's interesting.

00:16:56.889 --> 00:17:01.230
That's kind of my take. I understand being negative

00:17:01.230 --> 00:17:07.130
with the world view, like the big picture over

00:17:07.130 --> 00:17:10.049
the last five or so years, maybe closer to a

00:17:10.049 --> 00:17:13.309
decade, the big picture has looked dire for a

00:17:13.309 --> 00:17:16.210
while. You know? Oh, for sure. Climate change,

00:17:16.369 --> 00:17:21.069
wars, fascism, late stage capitalism. It's easy

00:17:21.069 --> 00:17:24.470
to look at the big picture and feel remarkably

00:17:24.470 --> 00:17:28.650
pessimistic. But looking at the smaller picture,

00:17:28.670 --> 00:17:30.950
you have to realize what you can and can't influence.

00:17:31.529 --> 00:17:34.890
You know, you can influence your personal circle

00:17:34.890 --> 00:17:39.009
and how well you fit in with them, how well you

00:17:39.009 --> 00:17:42.930
can make them feel. It's very easy to let the

00:17:42.930 --> 00:17:45.130
big picture take over and then you lose sight

00:17:45.130 --> 00:17:48.289
of what's right in front of you. And perhaps

00:17:48.289 --> 00:17:52.089
that's what this woman in your experience was

00:17:52.089 --> 00:17:55.609
going through where, you know, got lost in the

00:17:55.609 --> 00:17:59.950
sauce, as they say. So that could play in as

00:17:59.950 --> 00:18:01.670
well because I know I've been in those types

00:18:01.670 --> 00:18:04.809
of mindsets myself. Oh sure. Yeah, that's that's

00:18:04.809 --> 00:18:06.289
no question. I just found it interesting and

00:18:06.289 --> 00:18:10.750
it's like I've seen those types of conversations

00:18:10.750 --> 00:18:13.430
take place not that there's always like one good

00:18:13.430 --> 00:18:16.750
cop bad cop, you know, but there's like just

00:18:16.750 --> 00:18:23.450
generally having this disdain for other people

00:18:23.450 --> 00:18:25.730
or this disdain for where they're at that they

00:18:25.730 --> 00:18:28.720
actually walked in. to this place sure yeah oh

00:18:28.720 --> 00:18:30.579
my god why are we here you walked in the door

00:18:30.579 --> 00:18:33.059
that's why you're here that's true you left some

00:18:33.059 --> 00:18:35.779
other place and your little feet moved you yeah

00:18:35.779 --> 00:18:39.140
to this place that's how so i just find it very

00:18:39.140 --> 00:18:42.940
interesting i find it largely with gen xers because

00:18:42.940 --> 00:18:48.039
i can speak for them we almost always do things

00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:51.539
with purpose sure always do things with purpose

00:18:51.539 --> 00:18:55.299
uh if we're busy we're busy And if we're ready

00:18:55.299 --> 00:18:57.579
to party, we're ready to party. Like, there's

00:18:57.579 --> 00:19:00.059
just that decisiveness, like, we're doing this,

00:19:00.059 --> 00:19:02.500
we're doing that, blah, blah, blah. We already

00:19:02.500 --> 00:19:06.680
know, like, maybe we've just come to grips with

00:19:06.680 --> 00:19:13.140
the failure of the Earth as a culture, as a being,

00:19:13.519 --> 00:19:19.079
as this, whatever this is, this global economy,

00:19:19.500 --> 00:19:22.660
all of it, the whole thing. And we've come to

00:19:22.660 --> 00:19:25.369
grips with it. So we're largely negative about

00:19:25.369 --> 00:19:29.650
that. But we don't sit there and go, ah, blah,

00:19:29.809 --> 00:19:32.490
blah, blah, this and that. Most of us are so

00:19:32.490 --> 00:19:34.529
apathetic, we just don't talk about it. Sure.

00:19:34.769 --> 00:19:36.430
Yeah. Because we're like, what's he talking about?

00:19:36.529 --> 00:19:39.490
Yep, world's effed up. Yeah. Okay, next. Where's

00:19:39.490 --> 00:19:42.009
my beer? Yeah. And we just like, we're beyond

00:19:42.009 --> 00:19:45.289
that. I can't fix it. It's messed up. Where's

00:19:45.289 --> 00:19:47.609
my beer? Sure. Where's my burger? Let's have

00:19:47.609 --> 00:19:50.049
a fun night. And this is kind of where we're

00:19:50.049 --> 00:19:52.789
at. So I don't know, I just found it interesting.

00:19:52.930 --> 00:19:55.250
So I don't know if it was much more generational,

00:19:55.869 --> 00:19:58.049
individual, maybe a little bit of both. Yeah,

00:19:58.650 --> 00:20:00.670
I think it's a little bit of both, honestly.

00:20:01.170 --> 00:20:03.750
But like I said, I can't talk for all of Gen

00:20:03.750 --> 00:20:06.109
Z because there's just such, there's such a wide

00:20:06.109 --> 00:20:11.690
variety of people in every generation. And it's,

00:20:11.730 --> 00:20:14.710
I don't know, like you said, it's very easy to

00:20:14.710 --> 00:20:18.059
fall into that, you know. big picture thing and

00:20:18.059 --> 00:20:20.420
you know sometimes apathy can be a blessing sometimes

00:20:20.420 --> 00:20:24.779
it can be a curse but sure yeah it's just sometimes

00:20:24.779 --> 00:20:27.279
just take a step back even take some time get

00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:29.900
some get introspective yeah and just realize

00:20:29.900 --> 00:20:34.339
like hey what can i change today about my behavior

00:20:34.339 --> 00:20:35.940
because that's what you have control over you

00:20:35.940 --> 00:20:37.539
have control over your behavior those around

00:20:37.539 --> 00:20:40.940
you not so much you can influence it yeah oh

00:20:40.940 --> 00:20:43.039
for sure you can't change it you can change your

00:20:43.039 --> 00:20:44.819
behavior what can i change about my behavior

00:20:44.819 --> 00:20:49.099
today That's like oh, maybe I'll go Maybe I'll

00:20:49.099 --> 00:20:52.299
go sit on the grass mm -hmm soak in some vitamin

00:20:52.299 --> 00:20:55.440
D and just Look in some look at some flowers

00:20:55.440 --> 00:20:58.079
and dandelions and just smile for a little bit

00:20:58.079 --> 00:21:00.500
There are scientific studies saying that will

00:21:00.500 --> 00:21:04.099
legitimately make you feel better, right? I know

00:21:04.099 --> 00:21:07.140
it's a meme, but fucking go out and touch grass.

00:21:07.200 --> 00:21:10.200
Yes. Yeah, that's important. You're right. Very

00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:13.140
important. Yeah And I think, I think a lot of

00:21:13.140 --> 00:21:14.900
people lose sight of that. And as you say, the

00:21:14.900 --> 00:21:19.079
more people and I, God, I hate to reference this

00:21:19.079 --> 00:21:21.960
movie because I hate this movie with a passion.

00:21:22.400 --> 00:21:24.319
Like if there was a top 10 list, which we'll

00:21:24.319 --> 00:21:27.539
do later by the way, ladies and gentlemen, if

00:21:27.539 --> 00:21:31.180
we did a top list of movies, I hate, this would

00:21:31.180 --> 00:21:33.940
definitely be on it. It's a movie called WALL

00:21:33.940 --> 00:21:36.720
-E, brr, WALL -E. A little frickin', I think

00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:39.380
it's a Pixar movie. Yeah, it sounds right. And

00:21:39.380 --> 00:21:42.960
this little robot, he just wanders around. And

00:21:42.960 --> 00:21:45.259
to be fair, I mean, some people are like, oh,

00:21:45.259 --> 00:21:47.359
he's cute and he's innocent. I think he's a dumbass.

00:21:48.160 --> 00:21:50.240
And he's this dumbass robot. I'm surprised he's

00:21:50.240 --> 00:21:54.259
still moving around and operational. But the

00:21:54.259 --> 00:21:58.119
point of bringing that movie up is kind of where

00:21:58.119 --> 00:22:01.809
Human Race is heading. And when they get to that

00:22:01.809 --> 00:22:05.089
part of the movie, that's the most real part.

00:22:05.190 --> 00:22:08.609
Like to me, I'm like, yep, that's it right there.

00:22:08.609 --> 00:22:11.789
Yeah. A bunch of fat ass humans who can't move

00:22:11.789 --> 00:22:14.609
around, who can't do anything on their own, who

00:22:14.609 --> 00:22:18.910
are all plugged into this thing. And they're

00:22:18.910 --> 00:22:24.029
completely 100 % reliant on electronics and the

00:22:24.029 --> 00:22:27.029
system and everything to even survive, to breathe.

00:22:27.049 --> 00:22:30.019
Right. And that was the thing that was like,

00:22:30.200 --> 00:22:31.480
yeah, I think we're kind of heading that way.

00:22:31.839 --> 00:22:34.240
That part of this movie makes sense. I think

00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:37.299
the only thing in that movie I didn't find realistic

00:22:37.299 --> 00:22:42.900
is how dystopic it was, because the quantity

00:22:42.900 --> 00:22:45.059
of human beings that just get to live plugged

00:22:45.059 --> 00:22:51.220
in, fed and watered, hydrated, are the rich people.

00:22:51.259 --> 00:22:53.619
Those are going to be the rich people. The poor

00:22:53.619 --> 00:22:56.940
people are going to be doing wage slave labor.

00:22:57.150 --> 00:23:00.029
yeah to make sure that's possible yes either

00:23:00.029 --> 00:23:03.789
that or they're extinct because they're unnecessary

00:23:03.789 --> 00:23:07.349
due to ai completely unnecessary yeah that's

00:23:07.349 --> 00:23:10.170
that's the few that's the wally future part i

00:23:10.170 --> 00:23:12.549
think they left out that they left out is the

00:23:12.549 --> 00:23:14.329
calling of the herd yeah that's what i'm worried

00:23:14.329 --> 00:23:17.130
about yeah that's that's something people need

00:23:17.130 --> 00:23:21.589
to worry about i agree for sure wow on an up

00:23:21.589 --> 00:23:24.660
note On an up note. Now that we're feeling pretty

00:23:24.660 --> 00:23:27.200
good. Now that we're feeling pretty good. Geez

00:23:27.200 --> 00:23:30.319
us. Boy, did we just let the air out of the tires.

00:23:30.660 --> 00:23:33.339
But I'll tell you what. The show is young. We're

00:23:33.339 --> 00:23:37.059
going to rebound. And I guarantee you, if you

00:23:37.059 --> 00:23:39.480
thought that was letting out the enough. No.

00:23:39.920 --> 00:23:41.880
It'll get better. I swear. It'll get better.

00:23:41.880 --> 00:23:43.859
We're about to deflate hot air balloons next.

00:23:43.880 --> 00:23:45.720
We're going to deflate hot air balloons. We're

00:23:45.720 --> 00:23:47.220
going to kick baby. No, we're not going to do

00:23:47.220 --> 00:23:51.130
any of that. allegedly allegedly i love that

00:23:51.130 --> 00:23:53.049

they are They might just, you know, might just

00:24:20.000 --> 00:24:23.319
be a statement. It could very well be a question,

00:24:23.720 --> 00:24:27.420
which we might answer. That's true. We're not

00:24:27.420 --> 00:24:30.140
obligated to. No, we're really not. Yeah. But

00:24:30.140 --> 00:24:33.740

persuade us to answer your DM. Very true. And

00:24:40.359 --> 00:24:43.259

00:25:17.559 --> 00:25:20.839
have a few I've got one from our boy our old

00:25:20.839 --> 00:25:25.339
friend Kelvin Bowel man. Oh yeah Kelvin asking

00:25:25.339 --> 00:25:29.059
why can't anyone get my name right and why am

00:25:29.059 --> 00:25:32.529
I not making content anymore? It's a good question

00:25:32.529 --> 00:25:35.930
there, Kelvin. Sometimes I ask that myself, too.

00:25:36.289 --> 00:25:38.950
Not even sure I got your name right, to be honest.

00:25:39.490 --> 00:25:44.490
I have no answers. No, that's a rather interesting

00:25:44.490 --> 00:25:48.769
question. I would have to say, it could very

00:25:48.769 --> 00:25:51.210
well be. I mean, he's a world renowned spelunker.

00:25:51.809 --> 00:25:54.890
Could be in a hole. He's in a hole. That is a

00:25:54.890 --> 00:25:57.750
possibility. There's also another possibility

00:25:57.750 --> 00:26:01.190
that one of our... Don't want to say stalker.

00:26:01.190 --> 00:26:03.089
I don't think he stalks us, but he's definitely

00:26:03.089 --> 00:26:06.109
a fan. He's around He's around you know, but

00:26:06.109 --> 00:26:07.869
last I checked. I thought he was in his trunk

00:26:07.869 --> 00:26:11.750
so He could be in Stan's trunk. That's what I

00:26:11.750 --> 00:26:13.589
was thinking. Yeah, it could be in Stanley's

00:26:13.589 --> 00:26:18.049
trunk. I Where else would he be? I'm not sure

00:26:18.049 --> 00:26:20.109
I just know he's not behind the microphone. Yeah,

00:26:20.230 --> 00:26:24.710
clearly not in a k219 studios Yeah, that's that's

00:26:24.710 --> 00:26:29.549
that's for certain and I know Yeah, I know a

00:26:29.549 --> 00:26:33.369
woman isn't the reason. Oh man, you can't laugh

00:26:33.369 --> 00:26:38.210
about that. There's no way. That's not funny.

00:26:38.710 --> 00:26:41.849
That's hilarious. Well, that is. I was about

00:26:41.849 --> 00:26:44.690
to say it's a little funny. It can't be that.

00:26:45.089 --> 00:26:48.289
I've heard he's possibly working all these different

00:26:48.289 --> 00:26:50.569
jobs now, maybe selling his schnitzel on the

00:26:50.569 --> 00:26:52.690
street. I don't know. I don't know. Anything

00:26:52.690 --> 00:26:54.930
to make income, right? We're guessing. Yeah.

00:26:55.180 --> 00:26:58.019
We're guessing at this point. We're merely hypothesizing.

00:26:58.059 --> 00:27:03.059
Indeed we are. In an alleged, hypothetical universe.

00:27:03.819 --> 00:27:05.079
Maybe someone should go to his earthworm farm,

00:27:05.200 --> 00:27:07.920
see if he's alive. Oh, right, I forgot about

00:27:07.920 --> 00:27:10.000
that. The earthworm farm, he had restaurants

00:27:10.000 --> 00:27:14.759
in North Korea. He had. Had. Yeah. Keynote there.

00:27:14.920 --> 00:27:18.420
Had. Yep. Yeah, didn't really survive that. No.

00:27:19.380 --> 00:27:22.460
20 years. Yeah, that was tough. It was rough

00:27:22.460 --> 00:27:25.339
for him. It was tough, tough for, tough for Kelvin's

00:27:25.339 --> 00:27:28.460
and tough for Earthworm's. Yeah. You can only

00:27:28.460 --> 00:27:32.799
sell so many Earthworm dishes. Right? No doubt.

00:27:33.019 --> 00:27:36.900
Unique cuisine, I'll give them that. Not for

00:27:36.900 --> 00:27:41.279
me. No, not for me either. And quite frankly,

00:27:43.220 --> 00:27:48.230
Kelvin is a... Kelvin Kelvin Kelvin Kelvin Mr.

00:27:48.509 --> 00:27:52.609
Bowel man, Mr. Bowel man. Yeah, he Hopefully

00:27:52.609 --> 00:27:56.549
he resurfaces May there might be questions. Oh,

00:27:56.549 --> 00:27:58.490
there will be questions. There will be questions

00:27:58.490 --> 00:28:01.769
after the flogging. Yes, of course Yeah, that's

00:28:01.769 --> 00:28:05.849
that goes without saying Tis necessary. I got

00:28:05.849 --> 00:28:08.630
a question here from a hand bone My man hand

00:28:08.630 --> 00:28:11.990
bone. All right, if you had two minutes to talk

00:28:11.990 --> 00:28:15.609
to yourself when you were 20 What would you say?

00:28:16.329 --> 00:28:18.490
Was that two minutes or two words? Two minutes

00:28:18.490 --> 00:28:22.390
to talk to yourself when you were 20. I would

00:28:22.390 --> 00:28:26.589
maybe give myself as many stock tips as I could

00:28:26.589 --> 00:28:32.269
possibly think of in two minutes. And then if

00:28:32.269 --> 00:28:36.630
there were a remaining 15 to 30 seconds, tell

00:28:36.630 --> 00:28:40.130
myself the people or situations I absolutely

00:28:40.130 --> 00:28:43.599
have to avoid. Sure. Yeah, those would be two

00:28:43.599 --> 00:28:46.359
incredibly valuable pieces of information. Yes,

00:28:46.579 --> 00:28:51.460
I would agree It's 20 20 well when I was 20 is

00:28:51.460 --> 00:28:55.039
what five and a half almost six years ago Yeah,

00:28:55.039 --> 00:28:58.900
I was thinking that to stock tips by Bitcoin

00:28:58.900 --> 00:29:02.240
and whatever else so that way by the time I'm

00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:06.420
25 like I am now. I would be very rush. Yeah,

00:29:06.480 --> 00:29:12.259
very rich That would be priority numero uno I

00:29:12.259 --> 00:29:16.420
would also... Oh, man. What else would I say?

00:29:16.519 --> 00:29:19.279
I would probably just give some, like, regular,

00:29:19.940 --> 00:29:22.900
important tips that I've learned along the way,

00:29:22.940 --> 00:29:24.940
like, kind of what we were talking about earlier,

00:29:24.960 --> 00:29:26.740
like, hey, don't get caught up in the big picture

00:29:26.740 --> 00:29:29.559
type thing, like, take every day as a blessing,

00:29:29.740 --> 00:29:33.539
because, hey, you made it, right? Yeah. So, after

00:29:33.539 --> 00:29:35.599
I get myself stupid rich, I'd probably take the

00:29:35.599 --> 00:29:37.700
last 10 seconds or so to just be like, hey, keep

00:29:37.700 --> 00:29:42.700
your head up. It'll be fine. Yeah, it'll be okay,

00:29:43.160 --> 00:29:46.279
brother. Final question I received from a man

00:29:46.279 --> 00:29:50.880
named Dr. Willie. Would you rather have teleportation

00:29:50.880 --> 00:29:54.880
powers or never have to eat or drink again to

00:29:54.880 --> 00:29:59.670
survive? It's a good question. That is a good

00:29:59.670 --> 00:30:02.750
question. And seeing is that travel is expensive.

00:30:03.230 --> 00:30:06.730
I really like the teleportation. I agree. Because

00:30:06.730 --> 00:30:10.549
I could sit there and go, man, I wish I had the

00:30:10.549 --> 00:30:13.490
money to go to Vegas this weekend. Oh, wait.

00:30:14.410 --> 00:30:16.509
I'm in Vegas. I'm in Vegas, right. I'm in Vegas.

00:30:16.630 --> 00:30:19.509
That's great. Super. And if I want to go for

00:30:19.509 --> 00:30:22.210
a couple hours and come home, I can do that too

00:30:22.210 --> 00:30:25.650
because I can teleport. That is so amazing. That

00:30:25.650 --> 00:30:28.509
would be so nice. Now from the eating and set,

00:30:28.990 --> 00:30:31.769
I'd like to eat and drink. That's true. I like

00:30:31.769 --> 00:30:36.990
the taste of cow in my mouth. True. Especially

00:30:36.990 --> 00:30:40.569
the cooked ones. Yeah. Mid rare. Yeah, whatever.

00:30:40.589 --> 00:30:42.849
Put it on a bun. Put it on a bun. Moo, whatever.

00:30:43.589 --> 00:30:48.450
I like the taste of meat. I knew that wasn't

00:30:48.450 --> 00:30:54.099
gonna work. Say again? Sorry, say again? I love

00:30:54.099 --> 00:30:58.599
the taste of meat in my mouth. You have to make

00:30:58.599 --> 00:31:01.819
sure you enunciate, remember? This is an audio

00:31:01.819 --> 00:31:06.160
podcast. I know, I know. I hate my life right

00:31:06.160 --> 00:31:10.140
now. Anyway, yeah, I like food. I like to drink

00:31:10.140 --> 00:31:15.039
beer and shots of Jameson. Yeah. And so it's

00:31:15.039 --> 00:31:18.420
not so much as a need as it is a want, and I

00:31:18.420 --> 00:31:20.799
would still want to do it. Sure, sure. And I

00:31:20.799 --> 00:31:23.759
think, like you were mentioning too, how much

00:31:23.759 --> 00:31:27.259
travel costs, right? Food and drink also costs

00:31:27.259 --> 00:31:31.039
a lot too. How much your water bill is every

00:31:31.039 --> 00:31:33.920
month, how much extra you spend on caffeine or

00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:37.660
alcohol drinks adds up. And food, I mean, you're

00:31:37.660 --> 00:31:39.720
talking hundreds and hundreds of dollars every

00:31:39.720 --> 00:31:44.160
month on food just to be able to survive. But

00:31:44.160 --> 00:31:48.549
does that really... Does that really matter when

00:31:48.549 --> 00:31:51.549
you can snap your fingers and go visit family

00:31:51.549 --> 00:31:54.890
on the other side of the country? Yeah, no, it

00:31:54.890 --> 00:31:58.009
doesn't. Yeah. No, it doesn't I'll take teleportation

00:31:58.009 --> 00:32:00.769
ten times out of ten Yeah, I think so that would

00:32:00.769 --> 00:32:02.809
that would be pretty great because like a perfect

00:32:02.809 --> 00:32:06.950
example his sisters live halfway across the country.

00:32:07.250 --> 00:32:10.009
Right. And the U .S. is a very large country

00:32:10.009 --> 00:32:12.589
for any of our foreign listeners that don't understand

00:32:12.589 --> 00:32:15.450
the scale of the United States. Just to give

00:32:15.450 --> 00:32:19.190
you an idea, if I wanted to drive from here to

00:32:19.190 --> 00:32:21.490
where his sisters are in the state of Washington,

00:32:22.349 --> 00:32:25.109
it's a three -day journey. Three days you're

00:32:25.109 --> 00:32:28.750
talking. 11 hours a day. 11 hours a day without

00:32:28.750 --> 00:32:34.099
stops. Right. Correct. Yeah. So it's it is expansive

00:32:34.099 --> 00:32:37.359
you're talking thousands of miles. Yes, correct

00:32:37.359 --> 00:32:40.259
from coast to coast So that would be amazing

00:32:40.259 --> 00:32:43.140
to be you know, your sister to get a hold of

00:32:43.140 --> 00:32:47.880
you say Alex in Seattle and says hey We're going

00:32:47.880 --> 00:32:49.559
we're going out to a restaurant tonight. You

00:32:49.559 --> 00:32:52.059
want to join us right off to yep Boom, you're

00:32:52.059 --> 00:32:53.880
there. Yeah, send me a text when you'll be there.

00:32:53.920 --> 00:32:58.039
I'll be there first. Right? That's the amazing

00:32:58.039 --> 00:33:00.440
part of that. Yes. And I would be able to reconnect

00:33:00.440 --> 00:33:02.640
with so many of my college friends that live

00:33:02.640 --> 00:33:04.980
all over the country. Worth its weight in gold.

00:33:05.160 --> 00:33:08.240
Yes. And like anytime you get one of those Midwestern

00:33:08.240 --> 00:33:11.680
winter days that's just dog ass. Oh yeah. Just

00:33:11.680 --> 00:33:14.599
be like, ah, teleport me to Southern California.

00:33:14.619 --> 00:33:17.339
Yeah. What's Miami Beach got going on? Right.

00:33:17.450 --> 00:33:21.210
Oh, sun waves. I love it. Beautiful. Yeah, teleportation

00:33:21.210 --> 00:33:24.769
10 times out of 10. Yep. Not even close. I agree.

00:33:25.069 --> 00:33:26.750
Was that your last one? That was the last one

00:33:26.750 --> 00:33:28.490
I got. All righty. All right. Very good. I love

00:33:28.490 --> 00:33:31.710
those. All right. My first one is from at 99

00:33:31.710 --> 00:33:35.970
Bottles of Beer. My man. My man. He says, my

00:33:35.970 --> 00:33:40.410
favorite podcast. Keep it up, guys. What beer

00:33:40.410 --> 00:33:42.470
have you tried that you thought you wouldn't

00:33:42.470 --> 00:33:47.460
like that you actually did? Great question. I

00:33:47.460 --> 00:33:50.039
would say there's one we have not tried on the

00:33:50.039 --> 00:33:53.200
show before but we've tried one from their brewery.

00:33:53.539 --> 00:33:56.380
Last week we had Victory Brewing, I think it

00:33:56.380 --> 00:34:00.380
was Whitty Monkey or Golden Monkey? Golden Monkey.

00:34:00.519 --> 00:34:03.019
Golden Monkey. They have one called, I think

00:34:03.019 --> 00:34:05.240
it's like Sour Monkey or something like that.

00:34:05.240 --> 00:34:08.059
Okay. It's a sour beer and typically I'm not

00:34:08.059 --> 00:34:11.840
a huge fan of sour beers because I think the

00:34:11.840 --> 00:34:16.710
the acidic citrus nature mixed with The multi

00:34:16.710 --> 00:34:19.750
hops can kind of have a vomit esque taste like

00:34:19.750 --> 00:34:23.750
a stomach acid. Oh, yeah ice. Yeah, but they

00:34:23.750 --> 00:34:27.530
Do it so well. I was so surprised when I tried

00:34:27.530 --> 00:34:31.349
that one that I really really liked it. Okay,

00:34:31.650 --> 00:34:35.269
and I was kind of flabbergasted. I'm like I have

00:34:35.269 --> 00:34:37.690
not found a lot of sour beers. I enjoy and this

00:34:37.690 --> 00:34:41.349
one I not only enjoy but I really really like

00:34:41.349 --> 00:34:45.070
so Yeah, that one surprised the hell out of me

00:34:45.099 --> 00:34:49.900
And then this is a big underdog here for me.

00:34:50.280 --> 00:34:56.119
Steel Reserve. Steel Reserve. It is the, some

00:34:56.119 --> 00:34:59.519
of the cheapest American beer you can buy. It

00:34:59.519 --> 00:35:04.860
is, it's just malt water. I mean, it tastes like

00:35:04.860 --> 00:35:07.699
pumpernickel bread and you just drink it down.

00:35:07.820 --> 00:35:10.639
It's like, wow, that's kind of a little coingly

00:35:10.639 --> 00:35:12.699
sweet, but it tastes like pumpernickel bread.

00:35:12.840 --> 00:35:16.380
It's like, oh man. Feels like I'm eating a loaf.

00:35:16.539 --> 00:35:18.739
And before you finish the pint, you realize,

00:35:19.239 --> 00:35:23.980
oh man, that's 8 .1 % ABV. It's a little spicy.

00:35:25.699 --> 00:35:28.059
Surprised the hell out of me. I never knew I

00:35:28.059 --> 00:35:32.239
liked malt that much, that a beer that's just

00:35:32.239 --> 00:35:35.780
malt would kind of blow me away. And a pint of

00:35:35.780 --> 00:35:38.880
it costs a dollar, so it's hard to beat that.

00:35:38.880 --> 00:35:45.360
Wow, that is certainly hard to beat. um there's

00:35:45.360 --> 00:35:49.739
there was one that i tried at a bar out here

00:35:49.739 --> 00:35:53.099
called franklin house it's by boulevard brewing

00:35:53.099 --> 00:35:56.260
okay they have this they have this dollar mystery

00:35:56.260 --> 00:35:59.579
beer night and i i'm always in for it because

00:35:59.579 --> 00:36:01.940
it's usually either overstock or whatever they

00:36:01.940 --> 00:36:05.199
got and they're just like and they they do a

00:36:05.199 --> 00:36:08.300
service they do a service to the community and

00:36:08.300 --> 00:36:10.199
they have a dollar beer night, and you go, yeah,

00:36:10.260 --> 00:36:12.039
give me the mystery beer. And they just throw

00:36:12.039 --> 00:36:14.039
all these really weird beers at you. So this

00:36:14.039 --> 00:36:16.940
one night I tried from Boulevard Brewing Company.

00:36:18.519 --> 00:36:24.820
This was the Quirk Pineapple Orange Whip. Oh.

00:36:25.699 --> 00:36:30.099
Oh, it's a hard seltzer. OK. Yeah. OK. And so

00:36:30.099 --> 00:36:33.239
I am familiar with that brand. Are you? Yes.

00:36:33.679 --> 00:36:36.659
And so for me, like, I'm not a huge hard seltzer

00:36:36.659 --> 00:36:40.400
guy. I'll drink them. Sure. For sure. And sometimes

00:36:40.400 --> 00:36:42.179
you just want to change things up, especially

00:36:42.179 --> 00:36:44.699
like on a hot day. On a hot day, sometimes a

00:36:44.699 --> 00:36:47.360
cold seltzer is pretty bueno. Very refreshing.

00:36:47.519 --> 00:36:50.360
It is. I would agree. But like I got this, my

00:36:50.360 --> 00:36:52.219
mystery beer, I'm like, oh man, because I'm not

00:36:52.219 --> 00:36:55.599
a pineapple guy. I'm not a pineapple guy. I'm

00:36:55.599 --> 00:36:57.659
not a pineapple guy on pizza. If you put pineapple

00:36:57.659 --> 00:36:59.880
on my pizza, I will take the pizza out of the

00:36:59.880 --> 00:37:02.400
box and I will shove it in your face. But I'll

00:37:02.400 --> 00:37:04.400
still love you. Sure. But I'm shoving the pizza

00:37:04.400 --> 00:37:08.059
in your face. It's on principle. You've just

00:37:08.059 --> 00:37:10.360
disrespected me in such a way. We're not even

00:37:10.360 --> 00:37:13.820
Italian. We're not, oh, hey, oh. I'm cooking

00:37:13.820 --> 00:37:16.139
a pizza here. I'm cooking a pizza here, but we

00:37:16.139 --> 00:37:20.239
can't speak it. So to all of our Italian friends,

00:37:20.380 --> 00:37:23.300
we love you. Pizzano, huh? Pizzano, hey, Pizzano,

00:37:23.579 --> 00:37:32.619
hey. I Keep thinking back to a family guy where

00:37:32.619 --> 00:37:35.559
Peter goes in he's with Brian. He's gonna he's

00:37:35.559 --> 00:37:37.599
like I'm gonna speak to this that he's like Oh,

00:37:37.619 --> 00:37:39.800
don't do it Peter. He's like he's like Bippity

00:37:39.800 --> 00:37:41.679
Boppity Boppity Boppity Boppity Boppity Boppity

00:37:41.679 --> 00:37:42.840
Boppity Boppity Boppity Boppity Boppity Boppity

00:37:42.840 --> 00:37:43.440
Boppity Boppity Boppity Boppity Boppity Boppity

00:37:43.440 --> 00:37:52.699
Boppity Boppity Boppity Boppity The pineapple

00:37:52.699 --> 00:37:54.340
part got me and I'm like, man, I'm gonna hate

00:37:54.340 --> 00:38:01.000
this. And I didn't because the orange was greater

00:38:01.000 --> 00:38:04.400
in volume to me in there than the pineapple.

00:38:04.519 --> 00:38:06.360
They didn't let the pineapple overshadow that,

00:38:06.559 --> 00:38:08.960
which was a good thing. And it was very tasty

00:38:08.960 --> 00:38:11.760
and I enjoyed it. That's wonderful. Yeah. Believe

00:38:11.760 --> 00:38:15.519
it or not, that... Well, as far as people know,

00:38:15.719 --> 00:38:18.159
common listeners might know that I work for a

00:38:18.159 --> 00:38:21.159
beer distributing company. Indeed you do. In...

00:38:21.190 --> 00:38:25.750
Northwest Indiana, Chicagoland area. And that

00:38:25.750 --> 00:38:29.769
brand is one of the brands we carry. Today, I

00:38:29.769 --> 00:38:32.530
found out, today as of recording, so yesterday

00:38:32.530 --> 00:38:35.130
for all you lovely listeners, I found out they

00:38:35.130 --> 00:38:38.969
have a new one. It's like a Rocket Pop. You know

00:38:38.969 --> 00:38:43.250
the Rocket Pop popsicles? Oh yeah. A hard seltzer

00:38:43.250 --> 00:38:46.409
like that, by that brand, tastes like Rocket

00:38:46.409 --> 00:38:49.980
Pop. Really? So it's like the... the cherry -citrus

00:38:49.980 --> 00:38:53.280
-blue -ras mix. So we may have to keep an eye

00:38:53.280 --> 00:38:57.139
on that for maybe a future beer review. Indeed.

00:38:57.320 --> 00:38:58.780
And the only other thing I can think of, because

00:38:58.780 --> 00:39:02.380
I'm not a huge IPA guy, was the Island Beets

00:39:02.380 --> 00:39:05.739
by Lenguinitas Brewing Company. Oh, yeah. It

00:39:05.739 --> 00:39:07.840
was good. I enjoyed it. Those are very tasty.

00:39:08.179 --> 00:39:11.780
Yeah. I did like that one. So those are two that

00:39:11.780 --> 00:39:14.809
I kind of went in. And I'm like, mm, I don't

00:39:14.809 --> 00:39:17.090
know if I like this. A little skeptical. So skeptical.

00:39:17.210 --> 00:39:18.929
And they're pretty good. Yeah, that's wonderful.

00:39:20.230 --> 00:39:23.010
At Football Coast America, what do you guys think

00:39:23.010 --> 00:39:25.849
about the NFL draft? And how did your teams do?

00:39:25.889 --> 00:39:28.389
What did you think about Shador Sanders' slide?

00:39:29.329 --> 00:39:34.130
Well, that's a common L. You associate yourself

00:39:34.130 --> 00:39:37.250
with fascists. I think sometimes you just take

00:39:37.250 --> 00:39:39.789
an L like that, and I don't feel bad for you.

00:39:40.389 --> 00:39:43.800
I think my team did great. That's the Da Bears

00:39:43.800 --> 00:39:47.639
for anyone curious. I think we did well. I do

00:39:47.639 --> 00:39:50.559
too. You know, I think the GM may be trying to

00:39:50.559 --> 00:39:53.500
keep his job. Oh yeah. You know, pressure's on

00:39:53.500 --> 00:39:56.659
and I think he performed well. So I'm looking

00:39:56.659 --> 00:39:58.920
forward. I think the next couple seasons we will

00:39:58.920 --> 00:40:01.860
be on the up and up finally. Yes. For the first

00:40:01.860 --> 00:40:05.179
time in several decades. Maybe longer than that.

00:40:06.000 --> 00:40:07.760
But... Winning division, winning a playoff game,

00:40:07.780 --> 00:40:10.889
that's gotta be the goal. Yes. At minimum. Yeah,

00:40:10.969 --> 00:40:13.170
that's gotta be the goal, for sure. I think we're

00:40:13.170 --> 00:40:17.110
bueno. I think we're good. And I think, uh, so

00:40:17.110 --> 00:40:18.969
I think the Bears, they got, they got, for me,

00:40:19.070 --> 00:40:22.510
they got like a B+. I also like the Denver Broncos.

00:40:22.909 --> 00:40:25.429
Sure. They get kind of like a C+. They just did

00:40:25.429 --> 00:40:28.130
kind of meh. Just kind of mid. Above Av. Above

00:40:28.130 --> 00:40:30.110
Av, though, I would say. That's, that's fair.

00:40:30.590 --> 00:40:32.789
And then as far as Shador Sanders, look, the

00:40:32.789 --> 00:40:35.409
dude didn't hire an agent. He let his dad do

00:40:35.409 --> 00:40:38.110
all the talking. It's a bad idea. And then when

00:40:38.110 --> 00:40:40.110
you're at the combine and you're having meetings

00:40:40.110 --> 00:40:43.190
with owners and GMs and you're sitting in front

00:40:43.190 --> 00:40:45.489
of them and you're dressed like an absolute punk

00:40:45.489 --> 00:40:47.389
and you got your hood up. Right. And you're not,

00:40:47.710 --> 00:40:50.070
you have the attitude that you could give two

00:40:50.070 --> 00:40:52.050
shits that you're sitting in front of them. Right.

00:40:52.349 --> 00:40:55.630
To me, it's like, do I want that dude as my face

00:40:55.630 --> 00:40:58.280
of the franchise? No. I want that guy to... That

00:40:58.280 --> 00:41:00.900
guy, right there he exhibits he's not a leader

00:41:00.900 --> 00:41:02.840
in the locker room. No, he's not a locker room

00:41:02.840 --> 00:41:05.280
guy at all. No, there's a huge, huge difference

00:41:05.280 --> 00:41:08.539
between confidence and arrogance. He's way on

00:41:08.539 --> 00:41:10.480
the arrogant side. Oh yeah. So for me it's like,

00:41:10.659 --> 00:41:14.079
why would I do that? I've seen quarterbacks come

00:41:14.079 --> 00:41:18.039
into this league that were arrogant and they

00:41:18.039 --> 00:41:20.980
won a total of no Super Bowls. Right. So, you

00:41:20.980 --> 00:41:23.199
know, that's... You're not that guy, pal. You're

00:41:23.199 --> 00:41:25.159
not that guy. Yeah. And quite frankly, is he

00:41:25.159 --> 00:41:28.130
good, like talent wise? Yeah. Is he great? No

00:41:28.130 --> 00:41:30.349
way. Yeah. So you're gonna you're gonna take

00:41:30.349 --> 00:41:33.150
that gamble? No frickin way. Uh -uh. No way.

00:41:35.150 --> 00:41:41.849
Um, U .S. Teamaview1212? Oh. Hello from the Philippines.

00:41:42.010 --> 00:41:46.349
U .S. military stationed in Batista. The show

00:41:46.349 --> 00:41:48.710
makes us laugh. You guys have such a cool way

00:41:48.710 --> 00:41:53.210
of looking at things. Thanks. My man. Well, U

00:41:53.210 --> 00:41:57.219
.S. Teamaview. Appreciate it. What a G. What

00:41:57.219 --> 00:41:59.539
a G. Yo, shout out Philippines. Shout out the

00:41:59.539 --> 00:42:02.860
Philippines. It never occurred to me that there

00:42:02.860 --> 00:42:05.940
are so many Americans overseas. That's so true.

00:42:06.099 --> 00:42:09.139
That we get, you know, we've got quite a reach

00:42:09.139 --> 00:42:13.480
globally so far. 25, 26 nations, whatever it

00:42:13.480 --> 00:42:15.360
is now. Curacao for the first time. Curacao,

00:42:15.559 --> 00:42:18.179
which is amazing. We need to go to Triple Sec

00:42:18.179 --> 00:42:22.630
immediately. I think it's so cool and it never

00:42:22.630 --> 00:42:24.309
dawned on me, especially like with the U .S.

00:42:24.590 --> 00:42:27.230
military and their bases and stuff. First off,

00:42:27.289 --> 00:42:30.389
thanks for being there, guys. I know that's a

00:42:30.389 --> 00:42:33.769
job. Appreciate you guys there and doing what

00:42:33.769 --> 00:42:36.210
you do, but the fact that you're listening is

00:42:36.210 --> 00:42:38.489
really cool. It's very neat. If you guys are

00:42:38.489 --> 00:42:40.570
over there listening, we appreciate it. We appreciate

00:42:40.570 --> 00:42:42.769
you, and thanks for listening. Hopefully we make

00:42:42.769 --> 00:42:46.250
you laugh. Mr. 1212, shout -outs. Shout -out,

00:42:46.349 --> 00:42:49.199
indeed. The next one, we haven't heard from this

00:42:49.199 --> 00:42:53.239
guy in a while, Socks Van Jerry, 83. Oh, man.

00:42:54.340 --> 00:42:58.099
Oh, no. How are you feeling better, Jerry? We

00:42:58.099 --> 00:43:02.199
may need to check on him. This is his DM to us.

00:43:02.840 --> 00:43:08.940
I sit alone in the darkness. Sounds like a disturbed

00:43:08.940 --> 00:43:16.960
song. The sound of silence. I sit alone in the

00:43:16.960 --> 00:43:21.639
darkness. I ponder all life has to offer. My

00:43:21.639 --> 00:43:27.300
cup runneth empty. Errors, strikeouts, losses

00:43:27.300 --> 00:43:31.980
repeat. Does life have meaning? And is there

00:43:31.980 --> 00:43:37.349
a God? Asking for a friend. Don't lie to me Jerry.

00:43:37.409 --> 00:43:39.630
You're not asking for a friend. You're not you're

00:43:39.630 --> 00:43:43.110
not you're on the ledge Jared In the south side

00:43:43.110 --> 00:43:46.269
of Chicago. There is no God and so no barely

00:43:46.269 --> 00:43:50.829
not yeah the Old black and white the old Chicago

00:43:50.829 --> 00:43:56.429
White Sox mm -hmm no No, when they take the field

00:43:56.969 --> 00:43:59.610
They should literally take the field to like

00:43:59.610 --> 00:44:11.750
taps. Yeah Just play just just play I would just

00:44:11.750 --> 00:44:16.389
like the, hey, hey, hey, goodbye. Play that when

00:44:16.389 --> 00:44:18.809
you walk onto the field. Yeah. So people know

00:44:18.809 --> 00:44:20.989
like, OK, this is our time to leave. You're right.

00:44:21.010 --> 00:44:23.210
They're about to start playing baseball. We should

00:44:23.210 --> 00:44:25.130
leave the stadium. I've had my campfire shake.

00:44:25.130 --> 00:44:28.690
Yeah. And my hot dog. It's good to go. I can

00:44:28.690 --> 00:44:30.570
leave now. They can leave. Where's Rico Benet?

00:44:30.849 --> 00:44:36.070
OK. Let's take it well spent. Indeed. But seriously,

00:44:36.269 --> 00:44:39.840
Sox Van Jerry, my man, just get a hobby. Yeah,

00:44:39.840 --> 00:44:43.360
I mean just throw on your bears wear. When spring

00:44:43.360 --> 00:44:45.579
hits. Just let the people know that's what you're

00:44:45.579 --> 00:44:47.699
excited for. Gotta do it. You're caught in public

00:44:47.699 --> 00:44:52.440
wearing a socks hat? Dude. Come on. Dude. That's

00:44:52.440 --> 00:44:55.019
like, yeah, that's just no good. How do you look

00:44:55.019 --> 00:44:57.360
yourself in the mirror? I don't know. No. Couldn't

00:44:57.360 --> 00:45:00.880
be me. I don't know. That's, that's a... It's

00:45:00.880 --> 00:45:02.699
almost like wearing a red hat with all these

00:45:02.699 --> 00:45:05.800
words. Never mind. I'm not even gonna go there.

00:45:06.340 --> 00:45:10.559
At any rate... My final one at stoner stanley

00:45:10.559 --> 00:45:14.579
420 my man our guy our number one fan stoner

00:45:14.579 --> 00:45:20.360

you thank you do you know sorry say again i love

00:45:26.320 --> 00:45:30.000
when he asks these questions do you know where

00:45:30.000 --> 00:45:35.400
it went because i do and you might just have

00:45:35.400 --> 00:45:44.219
to think on it What smells I'm gonna say it smells

00:45:44.219 --> 00:45:46.719
and I'm not sure where it went. I don't think

00:45:46.719 --> 00:45:51.139
I want to You know, I'm gonna just wish you a

00:45:51.139 --> 00:45:55.059
best of luck and thank you for the Thank you

00:45:55.059 --> 00:45:57.559
for the day. You've you've whispered who wished

00:45:57.559 --> 00:46:01.599
for me. I've wished upon us. Yeah Yeah, I don't

00:46:01.599 --> 00:46:03.599
know I don't know what to do with that Stanley.

00:46:03.599 --> 00:46:06.699
He's such an inquisitive guy Isn't he? Yeah.

00:46:07.000 --> 00:46:10.980
Especially, well, depending on what he's smoking,

00:46:11.800 --> 00:46:16.420
it can change. Yeah, he got that perp. He got

00:46:16.420 --> 00:46:19.019
a little crossfaded. I'm going to say that. Oh,

00:46:19.019 --> 00:46:23.460
no doubt. He certainly did. But know where it

00:46:23.460 --> 00:46:25.780
went, because I do, and you might just have to

00:46:25.780 --> 00:46:27.699
think about it. What smells? What smells? What

00:46:27.699 --> 00:46:30.610
smells is probably the fact that you're... RV?

00:46:30.789 --> 00:46:32.989
What's he in? A van? He's in a van down by the

00:46:32.989 --> 00:46:35.449
river. It smells like skunk and that could be

00:46:35.449 --> 00:46:38.190
because of a dead rodent. It could also be because

00:46:38.190 --> 00:46:41.909
of what you're smoking. That's likely. Here's

00:46:41.909 --> 00:46:43.489
my take. Hopefully it's a dead rodent. I was

00:46:43.489 --> 00:46:46.170
gonna say here's my take. It might be both. It

00:46:46.170 --> 00:46:50.059
might be both. Yeah. Is it a rodent though? We

00:46:50.059 --> 00:46:52.739
are missing certain people right now. Oh, no.

00:46:53.059 --> 00:46:57.099
Kelvin Bowelman. See, it could... See, I'm putting

00:46:57.099 --> 00:46:59.480
these two things together now. I'm putting them

00:46:59.480 --> 00:47:03.460
together. I think Stoner Stanley forgot he was

00:47:03.460 --> 00:47:09.440
in the trunk. I really do. Or nor. Oh, no. Ah

00:47:09.440 --> 00:47:11.920
boy, how Stanley. Mum man. We're going to have

00:47:11.920 --> 00:47:13.920
to check on him one of these days. Nah, I think

00:47:13.920 --> 00:47:15.579
it's best we don't. Best we keep our distance.

00:47:16.099 --> 00:47:18.519
Yeah, that's fair. If he sees our faces, we will

00:47:18.519 --> 00:47:21.940
never not see his. That's true. That's what I

00:47:21.940 --> 00:47:24.000
worry about. That's fair. That's a fair comment.

00:47:24.980 --> 00:47:28.980
Before we take our next break, Aiden always shares

00:47:28.980 --> 00:47:32.579
these other foods with us every week. And they're

00:47:32.579 --> 00:47:35.960
not just other foods like, oh, look at this hamburger.

00:47:36.159 --> 00:47:39.489
Isn't it different and cool? Well, yeah, and

00:47:39.489 --> 00:47:41.449
there's a lot of great burgers in this town.

00:47:41.590 --> 00:47:44.210
That's great. That's great. Aidan's talking about

00:47:44.210 --> 00:47:46.750
other foods that would make a billy goat puke.

00:47:46.750 --> 00:47:51.369
Sure. And I want to I want to know more. He gives

00:47:51.369 --> 00:47:55.269
us all these these these foods. And I never.

00:47:55.840 --> 00:47:58.840
finish this segment going, oh, I would love to

00:47:58.840 --> 00:48:01.119
try that. It's more like I need to make sure

00:48:01.119 --> 00:48:03.559
I never get anywhere near that. Exactly. That's

00:48:03.559 --> 00:48:06.019
why we always take a break after this segment

00:48:06.019 --> 00:48:08.800
because we both need to go vomit. Exactly. Yeah.

00:48:08.800 --> 00:48:13.099
So what did you find this week? Well, my man,

00:48:13.699 --> 00:48:17.099
my homies over at the Disgusting Food Museum.

00:48:17.500 --> 00:48:21.059
Oh, no. Dot com. This wonderful publication.

00:48:21.199 --> 00:48:26.920
Yes. They found the cousin. Kasumatsu. Do you

00:48:26.920 --> 00:48:30.320
remember that? That's like the maggot infested

00:48:30.320 --> 00:48:34.039
cheese. Uh -huh. This is the cousin. It's also

00:48:34.039 --> 00:48:38.840
out of Sardinia, Italy. Oh. It's called Succalu

00:48:38.840 --> 00:48:42.000
Sardu. Okay. I'm not sure if I'm pronouncing

00:48:42.000 --> 00:48:44.460
that right, but I also don't really care that

00:48:44.460 --> 00:48:49.139
much because of what it is. It literally means

00:48:49.139 --> 00:48:53.989
goat kids rennet is how it's translated. The

00:48:53.989 --> 00:48:56.789
baby goat is slaughtered right after drinking

00:48:56.789 --> 00:49:01.230
milk. The milk is filtered and then poured back

00:49:01.230 --> 00:49:04.989
into the abosmium, which is the fourth stomach,

00:49:05.210 --> 00:49:06.969
right? Because they have four stomachs, kind

00:49:06.969 --> 00:49:09.570
of similar to a cow. So the baby goat drinks

00:49:09.570 --> 00:49:12.670
the milk, immediately killed. The milk is taken

00:49:12.670 --> 00:49:19.309
from it, put into its last stomach, which contains

00:49:19.309 --> 00:49:23.079
the rennet, which of course, you know... Rennet

00:49:23.079 --> 00:49:26.260
makes cheese. The stomach is then rubbed with

00:49:26.260 --> 00:49:30.460
salt and hung to dry for several months. Oh no.

00:49:30.900 --> 00:49:34.099
After maturation, the stomach is sliced open.

00:49:34.599 --> 00:49:39.039
The cheese is eaten on bread. It's called the

00:49:39.039 --> 00:49:43.480
sardinian potency booster. Oh, it's something.

00:49:44.019 --> 00:49:48.420
It is a booster. The taste is described as gasoline

00:49:48.420 --> 00:49:51.079
and ammonia mixed with wax. Oh, why would we

00:49:51.079 --> 00:49:58.170
do this? It's Italiano! The diet of the mother

00:49:58.170 --> 00:50:01.530
also affects the milk and thus the cheese, because

00:50:01.530 --> 00:50:03.809
of course it's freshly drank and then slaughtered.

00:50:04.050 --> 00:50:07.429
It's only produced on the east coast of Sardinia.

00:50:07.849 --> 00:50:10.610
According to local customs, it is sliced on bread,

00:50:10.929 --> 00:50:14.190
including the stomach walls, mind you. Either

00:50:14.190 --> 00:50:18.170
that or it's then fried in lard. It's made directly

00:50:18.170 --> 00:50:21.690
in the fourth final stomach. of a suckling goat

00:50:21.690 --> 00:50:24.070
because it contains many of the enzymes responsible

00:50:24.070 --> 00:50:27.710
for digestion, coagulation of the milk, the flavors

00:50:27.710 --> 00:50:31.590
quote, not for me, this is the quote from them,

00:50:32.070 --> 00:50:34.889
the flavor is rich and complex and is reminiscent

00:50:34.889 --> 00:50:39.289
of cave aged cheeses. I do not have any wish

00:50:39.289 --> 00:50:43.230
to confirm that for myself. When you eat it,

00:50:43.369 --> 00:50:45.090
this is another quote from them, when you eat

00:50:45.090 --> 00:50:47.829
it, it starts tasting like a combination of nice

00:50:47.829 --> 00:50:50.949
goat cheese and gorgonzola. A rather nice experience.

00:50:51.489 --> 00:50:53.969
A few seconds later, though, the aftertaste starts.

00:50:54.550 --> 00:50:58.530
A very acidic, stomach acid type flavor, acid

00:50:58.530 --> 00:51:02.079
reflex, straight up vomit. If you eat enough

00:51:02.079 --> 00:51:05.559
of it, the vomit aftertaste lasts for several

00:51:05.559 --> 00:51:16.059
days. No, no. Succalus sardew. That's, that's

00:51:16.059 --> 00:51:20.139
awful. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Something about Sardinia,

00:51:20.139 --> 00:51:23.880
Italy and their fucked up cheese. You know, it's

00:51:23.880 --> 00:51:26.500
interesting. And I just, this just popped in

00:51:26.500 --> 00:51:29.059
my head. Ladies and gentlemen, if you ever have

00:51:29.059 --> 00:51:32.880
a party. you are the party host. Right. And it

00:51:32.880 --> 00:51:34.659
depends on the party, right? The party might

00:51:34.659 --> 00:51:37.320
be the guys coming over to watch some football,

00:51:37.800 --> 00:51:39.500
or maybe there's a couple of couples and like

00:51:39.500 --> 00:51:41.460
couple friends, you play some games, have some

00:51:41.460 --> 00:51:44.579
beer and wine. And it's fine. It's like a fine.

00:51:44.880 --> 00:51:47.760
But sometimes there's those parties, right? They're

00:51:47.760 --> 00:51:51.099
big family parties, or like, there's just these

00:51:51.099 --> 00:51:54.400
gatherings that you host. They're like, I really

00:51:54.400 --> 00:51:56.980
wish all of these people would leave my house

00:51:56.980 --> 00:52:02.260
right now. You have this on call. Yes. And you

00:52:02.260 --> 00:52:05.559
know, you have your spread, have your pretzel

00:52:05.559 --> 00:52:08.019
rods. It's like, oh, Uncle James, have you tried

00:52:08.019 --> 00:52:11.000
the charcuterie yet? Right. That's what you do.

00:52:11.019 --> 00:52:13.980
Oh, don't mind if I do, kid. And you throw this

00:52:13.980 --> 00:52:16.539
thing out there. You're like, I want people to

00:52:16.539 --> 00:52:18.780
leave. I've got just the thing. Oh, you should

00:52:18.780 --> 00:52:23.159
try this dry aged cheese from Sardinia. It's

00:52:23.159 --> 00:52:27.380
one of a kind. That's fantastic and you know,

00:52:27.460 --> 00:52:29.460
they're gonna they're gonna grab their wine and

00:52:29.460 --> 00:52:30.900
they're gonna I can't wait and they're gonna

00:52:30.900 --> 00:52:33.199
try it and they might not be Completely disgusted

00:52:33.199 --> 00:52:35.239
at first right, but then they will and they'll

00:52:35.239 --> 00:52:39.519
all go home. Yes. Oh There it is. There it is.

00:52:39.860 --> 00:52:41.900
I think I think I just solved a huge problem

00:52:41.900 --> 00:52:45.679
for people. That's huge every Holiday just got

00:52:45.679 --> 00:52:48.570
easier it did You invite people over for Christmas,

00:52:48.789 --> 00:52:50.170
and like two and a half, three hours later, you're

00:52:50.170 --> 00:52:51.889
like, I'm totally ready for you to go. Right.

00:52:52.050 --> 00:52:54.309
You're trying to have Aunt Margaret leave early.

00:52:54.369 --> 00:52:55.429
How can I do this? Really? Yeah, exactly. Oh,

00:52:55.449 --> 00:52:59.969
I got you. Yeah, really. Uncle Frederick, he's

00:52:59.969 --> 00:53:02.769
got to go. How the hell can I? He's a cracker

00:53:02.769 --> 00:53:05.329
with Kasumatsu, and here's a cracker with stomach

00:53:05.329 --> 00:53:11.019
lining. I think you'll enjoy it. So that's it.

00:53:11.239 --> 00:53:13.360
That's it. Oh, yeah, that's disgusting. Oh, it's

00:53:13.360 --> 00:53:17.059
foul. That is foul Well, you leave it to Italy

00:53:17.059 --> 00:53:20.039
hey, you know we we said said we're gonna prove

00:53:20.039 --> 00:53:22.039
things on this show I'm not sure we did so far

00:53:22.630 --> 00:53:24.829
I think the proof is in the pudding. The proofs

00:53:24.829 --> 00:53:27.170
in the pudding are the Kazumatsu. Or in the stomach

00:53:27.170 --> 00:53:30.530
lining. Kalu, Kalu, Kalu, whatever. Kalu, fucking

00:53:30.530 --> 00:53:33.909
Kalu, bald fuck. See, we fucked it up again,

00:53:34.130 --> 00:53:36.170
man. We told people we were gonna bring it around

00:53:36.170 --> 00:53:38.289
town, we were gonna make things happy, we were

00:53:38.289 --> 00:53:40.170
gonna joke around, and now we're serving them

00:53:40.170 --> 00:53:41.889
stuff that would make them puke. We just mentioned

00:53:41.889 --> 00:53:44.309
Kalu, I mentioned Kalu, it's my bad. Is this

00:53:44.309 --> 00:53:46.130
the deflation of the hot air balloon? We did

00:53:46.130 --> 00:53:49.230
it again. Yeah. We did it again. We just had

00:53:49.230 --> 00:53:50.469
to do it to them. I thought we had a high. I

00:53:50.469 --> 00:53:52.869
thought we had a high with Stoner Stanley and

00:53:52.869 --> 00:53:55.989
we brought it down. You think we can rebound?

00:53:56.670 --> 00:53:58.829
I don't know. Maybe this music will make them

00:53:58.829 --> 00:54:13.110
feel better. Alright, let's see. Alright, we're

00:54:13.110 --> 00:54:16.989
back everybody. And I swear... I swear to you,

00:54:17.590 --> 00:54:21.389
we're gonna turn this franchise around. We're

00:54:21.389 --> 00:54:22.510
gonna turn this around. We're gonna make people

00:54:22.510 --> 00:54:24.630
happy, Aiden. We're gonna refill these tires

00:54:24.630 --> 00:54:29.889
with air. Yes. Self -heal your hot air balloon?

00:54:30.389 --> 00:54:34.789
Maybe. That's not possible. No, no. We blew that

00:54:34.789 --> 00:54:36.829
thing up. I don't think you can flex tape a hot

00:54:36.829 --> 00:54:41.480
air balloon. No, no. Well, well. Yeah, maybe

00:54:41.480 --> 00:54:43.800
maybe Phil Swift would have something to say

00:54:43.800 --> 00:54:46.900
about that I would I would say so hey if you

00:54:46.900 --> 00:54:52.380
can if you can tape a boat If you can tape a

00:54:52.380 --> 00:54:55.079
boat, you can fucking float in the air with flex

00:54:55.079 --> 00:54:59.699
tape. 1999 for two rolls. An entire hot air balloon

00:54:59.699 --> 00:55:02.760
made out of flex tape. Honestly, I would trust

00:55:02.760 --> 00:55:04.360
it more than... I think it's a goal now. I'd

00:55:04.360 --> 00:55:06.280
trust it more than Boeing airplanes these days.

00:55:06.380 --> 00:55:09.880
Hi -oh for sure. Hey -oh. Oh, wow. Hey, don't

00:55:09.880 --> 00:55:13.679
kill me. I'm not a whistleblower. Hey, no. Well...

00:55:13.679 --> 00:55:16.760
Allegedly. Guys got jokes. Allegedly. This guy's

00:55:16.760 --> 00:55:20.619
got jokes over here. Well, we're now on to, you

00:55:20.619 --> 00:55:22.760
just made the list. That is our top 10 list,

00:55:22.980 --> 00:55:25.840
10 to two, big number one reveal of oh hell,

00:55:26.000 --> 00:55:29.420
we do just about everything. And now there are

00:55:29.420 --> 00:55:32.800
quite a few, well, did we look at the rule book

00:55:32.800 --> 00:55:35.079
today? Hang on, hold up. Flip that open. Ah.

00:55:35.389 --> 00:55:38.409
there's only one rule what's that no rules oh

00:55:38.409 --> 00:55:41.289
that's it that's it no rules favorite rule honestly

00:55:41.289 --> 00:55:44.110
that is my favorite rule so yeah 10 through 2

00:55:44.110 --> 00:55:47.309
we do our big number one reveal and this week

00:55:47.309 --> 00:55:55.650
uh it is top 10 favorite bars slash pubs now

00:55:55.650 --> 00:55:59.320
once again can go a lot of different directions,

00:55:59.719 --> 00:56:02.380
depending on your definition of bar slash pub.

00:56:02.599 --> 00:56:06.480
True. And depending on how much of a national

00:56:06.480 --> 00:56:10.159
slash world traveler you are. So I'm very interested

00:56:10.159 --> 00:56:12.420
to see what Aidan's got. I'll start out with

00:56:12.420 --> 00:56:16.619
mine. I do have an honorable mention this week,

00:56:17.320 --> 00:56:19.599
because the rules did not say I cannot have.

00:56:19.599 --> 00:56:22.000
That is true. You could have also had a top 11,

00:56:22.099 --> 00:56:25.460
because that's also within the rules. Yeah, I

00:56:25.460 --> 00:56:29.019
might. I might, I might have a top 11. My man.

00:56:29.239 --> 00:56:31.800
I might. I think you read the tea leaves. I did.

00:56:31.960 --> 00:56:33.920
A little bit. I'm cool like that. You are cool

00:56:33.920 --> 00:56:37.639
like that. Thanks. Honorable mention, Joe's on

00:56:37.639 --> 00:56:40.480
Weed Street in Chicago. Used to go there a lot

00:56:40.480 --> 00:56:44.239
after softball games. See, the thing about a

00:56:44.239 --> 00:56:47.260
bar like that, depending on the time of day,

00:56:47.579 --> 00:56:50.820
could be dead as a doornail. And then two hours

00:56:50.820 --> 00:56:53.360
later, it's packed. It's just that kind of bar.

00:56:54.199 --> 00:56:56.150
But... When you got people in there, you got

00:56:56.150 --> 00:56:59.369
the game on, it's a fun bar. Red Line Pub in

00:56:59.369 --> 00:57:09.489
Chicago. A lot of UK eats, rarebit, and all sorts

00:57:09.489 --> 00:57:13.349
of... Beans on toast. Beans on toast. It's Tuesday,

00:57:13.610 --> 00:57:16.510
innit? We've got fish and chips in here. What

00:57:16.510 --> 00:57:21.019
are, what are? Your best beer. Fish and chips

00:57:21.019 --> 00:57:25.539
piss and shit. Yeah But the cool part is that

00:57:25.539 --> 00:57:27.920
the pub is super super super old and haunted

00:57:27.920 --> 00:57:31.679
so beautiful. That's always fun Cementos and

00:57:31.679 --> 00:57:35.980
Valparaiso nice kind of underrated in the local

00:57:35.980 --> 00:57:38.739
bar scene I think it gets overshadowed by just

00:57:38.739 --> 00:57:41.019
a couple of beasts in town that you know They're

00:57:41.019 --> 00:57:44.179
not that and they're just a touch off just a

00:57:44.179 --> 00:57:46.420
touch right touch off downtown just far enough

00:57:46.420 --> 00:57:50.420
removed where It's a little bit of an issue for

00:57:50.420 --> 00:57:54.860
them. However, I do have to say when it comes

00:57:54.860 --> 00:57:59.920
to the outside Shenanigans as it were they've

00:57:59.920 --> 00:58:02.820
got like shuffleboard and they have bags and

00:58:02.820 --> 00:58:05.039
they like a big backyard with all kinds of old

00:58:05.039 --> 00:58:07.920
beer garden So that is pretty cool. So that's

00:58:07.920 --> 00:58:10.760
that's how they made the list Boss bar in Chicago.

00:58:10.760 --> 00:58:15.059
That is a 4 a .m. Bar. My man There are a lot

00:58:15.059 --> 00:58:18.050
of local strippers that are bartenders at the

00:58:18.050 --> 00:58:20.309
bar. That's wonderful for them. Which is great.

00:58:20.429 --> 00:58:22.849
It's good to double -dip, as it were. I mean,

00:58:22.969 --> 00:58:24.929
hey. Double -dip is not something they do at

00:58:24.929 --> 00:58:26.590
the strip club. Double -dip is what it meant.

00:58:27.070 --> 00:58:30.570
With the income. Yeah. OK. I'm going to not do

00:58:30.570 --> 00:58:36.650
that. Anyway, it's usually a lot of fun. But

00:58:36.650 --> 00:58:40.230
once again, it's a 4 AM bar, dive bar, and things

00:58:40.230 --> 00:58:44.090
can get kind of ugly after 1, 2 AM. I know. I've

00:58:44.090 --> 00:58:45.829
been there. I've done it. I've closed it out.

00:58:46.539 --> 00:58:49.800
I've been in a fight with a friend. It's a thing.

00:58:49.840 --> 00:58:52.920
As it should be. It's a thing, but most times

00:58:52.920 --> 00:58:58.300
are good and fun. I went there last summer. It

00:58:58.300 --> 00:59:01.679
was the last time I went to Boss Bar. Now, I'm

00:59:01.679 --> 00:59:04.019
not going to say I met a random girl on the internet.

00:59:04.559 --> 00:59:06.860
That never happens. No. I'm not going to say

00:59:06.860 --> 00:59:09.500
that happened. I'm not going to say she randomly

00:59:09.500 --> 00:59:11.000
said she was going to be in Chicago, and then

00:59:11.000 --> 00:59:13.780
out of the blue says, oh. by the way i'm in chicago

00:59:13.780 --> 00:59:16.300
and then it's eleven o 'clock at night in northwest

00:59:16.300 --> 00:59:21.420
indiana and i go i'll come why ever not so i

00:59:21.420 --> 00:59:23.260
figured out the boss bar was closed her hotel

00:59:23.260 --> 00:59:27.260
i go we go to the boss bar i was tired so it

00:59:27.260 --> 00:59:30.239
was a mistake but we had a couple beers and whatever

00:59:30.239 --> 00:59:34.239
and i was ready to leave turns out said individual

00:59:34.239 --> 00:59:43.929
um only wanted me to perform as she was an online

00:59:43.929 --> 00:59:48.829
creator. Content creator. Content. Sure. On a

00:59:48.829 --> 00:59:53.369
certain page. A forum of sorts. A forum of sorts.

00:59:53.829 --> 00:59:58.090
Known as Shmonely Shmans. Oh, I've heard of those.

00:59:58.110 --> 01:00:01.650
Yes. Shmonely. Yes. And it was weird because

01:00:01.650 --> 01:00:03.809
she was a little bit younger. Once again in her

01:00:03.809 --> 01:00:06.230
20s, but she was not a Karen in training by any

01:00:06.230 --> 01:00:10.019
stretch of the imagination. Wanted to produce

01:00:10.019 --> 01:00:12.500
content with me and was angry when I said I was

01:00:12.500 --> 01:00:13.820
gonna leave and I'm like, whoa, what's good?

01:00:13.860 --> 01:00:15.679
What what just happened? What what are we doing?

01:00:16.099 --> 01:00:17.719
And she was no I thought we're going back to

01:00:17.719 --> 01:00:19.619
my room like the Lee we literally been had drinking

01:00:19.619 --> 01:00:22.860
beers for 45 minutes All I know is you're from

01:00:22.860 --> 01:00:24.860
in here from California and you were here out

01:00:24.860 --> 01:00:29.639
of the blue what is going on right now and She

01:00:29.639 --> 01:00:31.900
wanted to create content with middle -aged guys.

01:00:32.440 --> 01:00:36.849
Oh, well, that's me So I asked the question out

01:00:36.849 --> 01:00:39.010
of curiosity, because I was already getting ready

01:00:39.010 --> 01:00:43.409
to bolt. I said, can I ask you? And by this point,

01:00:43.409 --> 01:00:45.369
she was like done. She was like, OK, I just need

01:00:45.369 --> 01:00:46.730
to find another guy to do whatever I'm going

01:00:46.730 --> 01:00:51.869
to do. And so I said, how many other guys like

01:00:51.869 --> 01:00:54.269
me have there been since you've been here? Oh,

01:00:54.269 --> 01:00:58.510
five. OK, you have a pleasant evening. Now, I

01:00:58.510 --> 01:01:00.130
don't hold that against the boss bar, but this

01:01:00.130 --> 01:01:03.269
is some crazy shit that happens at the boss bar.

01:01:03.349 --> 01:01:06.860
Sure. At 2 3 in the morning. Yeah, and you know

01:01:06.860 --> 01:01:09.099
what? She's just out there trying to make a dime.

01:01:09.440 --> 01:01:11.559
She's not right I'm sure she's making more of

01:01:11.559 --> 01:01:14.300
it than a dime. I'm sure he's hustling. She's

01:01:14.300 --> 01:01:17.519
she's hustling and Yeah, so that's that's the

01:01:17.519 --> 01:01:19.500
boss bar. Nah, that's it. That's how that goes

01:01:19.500 --> 01:01:21.820
to the boss bar for sure Imagine if you went

01:01:21.820 --> 01:01:26.480
lovely listener. I'm cool. Yeah for sure Howl

01:01:26.480 --> 01:01:30.019
at the moon in Chicago, that's a fun bar Very

01:01:30.019 --> 01:01:32.360
lively. They usually have like sometimes he's

01:01:32.360 --> 01:01:34.800
dueling pianos and stuff Very kind of a cool

01:01:34.800 --> 01:01:38.440
place. Fairmont Shores in Fox Lake, Illinois.

01:01:38.840 --> 01:01:40.920
I have a friend who lives way, way, way up north

01:01:40.920 --> 01:01:45.039
in Illinois. And on this, not too far from this

01:01:45.039 --> 01:01:48.719
Fox Lake. And there's all these bars and things

01:01:48.719 --> 01:01:50.280
that kind of dot the shoreline around this big

01:01:50.280 --> 01:01:53.360
lake. And so we went to this Fairmont Shores.

01:01:53.739 --> 01:01:56.619
Now there wasn't anything spectacular about it

01:01:56.619 --> 01:02:00.739
per se. Just kind of an average cookie cutter

01:02:00.739 --> 01:02:05.230
kind of bar restaurant. But when you get onto

01:02:05.230 --> 01:02:08.150
the deck, which looks out right out into the

01:02:08.150 --> 01:02:12.510
water, on a nice summer day, that shit hit right.

01:02:12.610 --> 01:02:15.309
Beautiful. Just hit right. The servers are cool,

01:02:15.409 --> 01:02:17.150
owner's cool, like everybody went, Matt was really

01:02:17.150 --> 01:02:19.849
neat. So it makes sound of a mention. That's

01:02:19.849 --> 01:02:22.849
really cool. For that, yep. Now we get to the

01:02:22.849 --> 01:02:26.610
top 10. Number 10, Cork and Kerry Chicago. Not

01:02:26.610 --> 01:02:29.409
that one they tried to put by... Kaminsky Park,

01:02:29.590 --> 01:02:32.610
not that thing. The Kaminsky Park. Kaminsky Park

01:02:32.610 --> 01:02:35.510
over by there. Nope, it was actually the one

01:02:35.510 --> 01:02:39.329
in Beverly on Western Avenue. And it is kind

01:02:39.329 --> 01:02:43.269
of a cool prohibition era kind of designed to

01:02:43.269 --> 01:02:45.289
bar kind of an older bar. But the cool part about

01:02:45.289 --> 01:02:48.130
it is once again, the beer garden, which is it's

01:02:48.130 --> 01:02:52.920
just. smushed in between two old school brick

01:02:52.920 --> 01:02:54.880
buildings. So you got bricks, you got ivy, you

01:02:54.880 --> 01:02:56.739
got the big wooden deck. It's like, it's a very

01:02:56.739 --> 01:03:00.139
cool vibe. Especially like if you live in Beverly,

01:03:00.579 --> 01:03:02.139
had a long day, you go up there for a couple

01:03:02.139 --> 01:03:05.480
pints of the good stuff and just enjoy it. True.

01:03:05.920 --> 01:03:08.159
That's my number 10. Number 9 Club Lavella, Panama

01:03:08.159 --> 01:03:11.460
City Beach. Yeah, it's a lot of fun. Good fun?

01:03:11.940 --> 01:03:14.769
It's good wholesome. Absolutely. Family fun.

01:03:14.929 --> 01:03:17.429
Good, wholesome, family fun. Sadly, I believe

01:03:17.429 --> 01:03:19.150
they're currently under construction, so for

01:03:19.150 --> 01:03:21.650
you folks hoping to experience a club avail a

01:03:21.650 --> 01:03:23.590
night, I think you're gonna have to wait. I'm

01:03:23.590 --> 01:03:25.389
not sure how long that's gonna take. Number eight,

01:03:25.630 --> 01:03:28.530
Sharky's in Panama City Beach. Sharky's is great

01:03:28.530 --> 01:03:34.449
vibe. It's just, it's not anything special. But

01:03:34.449 --> 01:03:36.510
it's like all made out of wood and like all these

01:03:36.510 --> 01:03:38.710
multi -level decks, just a little pool thing.

01:03:39.289 --> 01:03:41.010
And there's a big shark out in front, which is

01:03:41.010 --> 01:03:42.789
kind of fun. I think I had my picture taken with

01:03:42.789 --> 01:03:46.030
my leg inside of it. So this is kind of... That's

01:03:46.030 --> 01:03:47.929
good. It's what happens when you're with me and

01:03:47.929 --> 01:03:51.769
we're drinking. But we had a good time. And Sharky's

01:03:51.769 --> 01:03:54.309
great. It's a great, cool vibe, just much more,

01:03:54.610 --> 01:03:57.250
not a club vibe. It's not a doonch, doonch, doonch.

01:03:57.269 --> 01:04:00.110
It's not that. It's just a very cool, chill,

01:04:00.210 --> 01:04:02.550
you're on the beach kind of vibe. Really cool.

01:04:04.079 --> 01:04:08.639
Number seven, Franklin House in Valparaiso. It

01:04:08.639 --> 01:04:12.280
is a dive bar with a bomb menu. And most people

01:04:12.280 --> 01:04:15.420
wouldn't realize that. And it's fun. They have

01:04:15.420 --> 01:04:17.820
a lot of fun nights, a lot of, you know, like

01:04:17.820 --> 01:04:21.599
a karaoke this night and DJ this night and...

01:04:21.369 --> 01:04:24.329
Tuesday booze day, which is like half off everything,

01:04:24.670 --> 01:04:26.650
which is... That's wonderful. That's a wonderful,

01:04:26.710 --> 01:04:28.769
wonderful night. Makes you regret working on

01:04:28.769 --> 01:04:31.869
Wednesday, though. That is for sure. So Franklin

01:04:31.869 --> 01:04:33.730
House is pretty great. It's a building that's

01:04:33.730 --> 01:04:37.650
actually been there since 1857, I believe. Used

01:04:37.650 --> 01:04:40.369
to be an old train station, hotel thing, whatever.

01:04:40.489 --> 01:04:42.210
It is right near the train station. That makes

01:04:42.210 --> 01:04:44.489
sense. Yep. Yeah. So it's kind of cool. The history

01:04:44.489 --> 01:04:46.789
is cool. And like everybody in the work series

01:04:46.789 --> 01:04:48.909
is very chill, you know, sometimes with a little

01:04:48.909 --> 01:04:50.869
bit of attitude. But like for that type of place,

01:04:50.949 --> 01:04:52.889
you're like, yep. Yeah, that makes sense. It's

01:04:52.889 --> 01:04:56.429
what you want. Number six, 74th Street Ale House

01:04:56.429 --> 01:04:59.469
in Seattle. I was in this part of Seattle called

01:04:59.469 --> 01:05:02.210
Finney Ridge. I went to see my daughter. And

01:05:02.210 --> 01:05:05.469
I flew in. This is a story that I'll tell you

01:05:05.469 --> 01:05:08.900
another day. It should not take 14 hours to get

01:05:08.900 --> 01:05:11.719
from point A to point B. It did, whatever. I

01:05:11.719 --> 01:05:15.099
finally got to her place to find out she had

01:05:15.099 --> 01:05:19.760
to work. All I wanted to do is just like chill

01:05:19.760 --> 01:05:21.719
on a couch and have a beer and then figure out

01:05:21.719 --> 01:05:24.519
where we're going to drink. So she had to work.

01:05:24.619 --> 01:05:27.519
I'm like, okay. And so I sat there and I had

01:05:27.519 --> 01:05:30.019
a book and I read for like 20 minutes. I'm like...

01:05:29.760 --> 01:05:32.500
Not fuck this. So I'm like walking out front

01:05:32.500 --> 01:05:35.000
actually where you going? I said, are there places

01:05:35.000 --> 01:05:36.679

01:05:36.760 --> 01:05:41.119

Finney Ridge, so if you're a Chicago person,

01:06:01.940 --> 01:06:06.960
think Lincoln Park -ish kind of area. That's

01:06:06.960 --> 01:06:09.659
what it is. Number five, Shuba's Tavern in Chicago.

01:06:09.739 --> 01:06:11.219
I mentioned them at the cool Schlitz thing in

01:06:11.219 --> 01:06:13.559
the front. Great, great place to see a band.

01:06:13.760 --> 01:06:16.659

01:08:11.320 --> 01:08:13.460
Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention, I should

01:08:13.460 --> 01:08:15.360
have put this on here on my honorable mention,

01:08:15.860 --> 01:08:18.220
Nine Brothers. Yes. Which I did not put on my

01:08:18.220 --> 01:08:20.819
list. I thought about it, and then I forgot,

01:08:21.100 --> 01:08:22.600
but I just remembered because I was talking things

01:08:22.600 --> 01:08:24.939
Irish. I'm gonna put Nine Brothers in my honorable...

01:08:24.939 --> 01:08:27.579
mention. It's in West Lafayette, Indiana, right

01:08:27.579 --> 01:08:30.739
by Purdue. It's going to be our regular stop

01:08:30.739 --> 01:08:32.199
when we go to a football game. Absolutely. For

01:08:32.199 --> 01:08:34.960
sure. Very, very nice. Aim at number one, which

01:08:34.960 --> 01:08:38.239
we'll wait. Ooh, I'll run ten through two and

01:08:38.239 --> 01:08:41.880
now I'm not... Huge into the bar scene because

01:08:41.880 --> 01:08:45.500
I've got this little CDL that pays my bills and

01:08:45.500 --> 01:08:47.100
I've got to protect that with my life. Don't

01:08:47.100 --> 01:08:48.680
want to mess that up. Do not want to mess that

01:08:48.680 --> 01:08:52.140
up. So some of these places I simply deliver

01:08:52.140 --> 01:08:55.039
to and they look wonderful. Ah, that's fair.

01:08:55.140 --> 01:08:57.300
But a majority of these places I have been to

01:08:57.300 --> 01:09:00.840
and been a patron of. Number 10 on my list is

01:09:00.840 --> 01:09:05.039
the former Valeros in Valparaiso, Indiana. It

01:09:05.039 --> 01:09:10.430
is a Mexican restaurant, but I think about half

01:09:10.430 --> 01:09:13.130
a year ago, they moved into a new location. They

01:09:13.130 --> 01:09:16.729
did. And it's a multiple level location. Yes.

01:09:16.810 --> 01:09:21.350
And they've got a level that's just a bar. And

01:09:21.350 --> 01:09:25.569
it's really cool. It looks wonderful. They've

01:09:25.569 --> 01:09:27.909
got this big outdoor patio. The food's fantastic

01:09:27.909 --> 01:09:31.090
anyway. And then you just get this like, it's

01:09:31.090 --> 01:09:36.149
not fancy, but it's so clean. Yeah. It's so clean.

01:09:36.329 --> 01:09:39.710
Very, very cool. Number nine on my list as it

01:09:39.710 --> 01:09:42.029

01:09:44.729 --> 01:09:48.149
But I know the vibe because I've been inside.

01:09:48.229 --> 01:09:50.789
I know the vibe delivering. There's a pain in

01:09:50.789 --> 01:09:53.789
the ass. I'll say that I'm allowed to say that

01:09:53.789 --> 01:09:57.109
you are allowed to say that but yeah, it's very

01:09:57.109 --> 01:10:00.289

01:12:16.760 --> 01:12:18.880
bands there, too. Pretty good bands. That's true.

01:12:19.260 --> 01:12:21.460
Number four on my list, Franklin House, as you

01:12:21.460 --> 01:12:24.140
said. dive bar, they got karaoke some nights,

01:12:24.300 --> 01:12:26.859
it's just a fun vibe. Number three on my list,

01:12:27.020 --> 01:12:31.000
Kitty O'Shea's. It's just the place to be. Kitty

01:12:31.000 --> 01:12:33.140
O'Shea's is great. They have music too, and it's

01:12:33.140 --> 01:12:36.500
usually Irish bands, folk bands, things like

01:12:36.500 --> 01:12:39.619
that, but they have like real like literally

01:12:39.619 --> 01:12:43.020
like like off the boat, Irish people working

01:12:43.020 --> 01:12:46.420
behind the bar. And so they know how to pour.

01:12:46.460 --> 01:12:48.220
They know how to pour Guinness for sure. As they

01:12:48.220 --> 01:12:50.939
should. And number two on my list is a place

01:12:50.939 --> 01:12:53.600
we went to on your last birthday, Three Monkeys

01:12:53.600 --> 01:12:58.300
Pub in Crown Point, Indiana. Three Monkeys is

01:12:58.300 --> 01:13:00.880
great. It is really wonderful. I mean, they've

01:13:00.880 --> 01:13:05.399
got screens everywhere to watch every game you

01:13:05.399 --> 01:13:08.159
want to see. They've got dozens of screens everywhere.

01:13:08.340 --> 01:13:11.689
And the food's fantastic. We tried, what was

01:13:11.689 --> 01:13:13.689
it, the monkey rolls? The monkey bread. The monkey

01:13:13.689 --> 01:13:16.689
bread's so good. Really, really fantastic. Yeah,

01:13:16.710 --> 01:13:18.170
I had some friends that went there the other

01:13:18.170 --> 01:13:19.350
night, and apparently they were getting ready

01:13:19.350 --> 01:13:20.810
to close, and the kitchen was closed, and they

01:13:20.810 --> 01:13:22.590
were like, no monkey bread. I was like, oh, that'd

01:13:22.590 --> 01:13:25.550
be sad. It'd be so sad. I'd be devastated. Yeah,

01:13:25.569 --> 01:13:28.090
I would too. Yeah, so that is my number two.

01:13:28.670 --> 01:13:31.350
Ooh, wow. I have a funny feeling I know maybe

01:13:31.350 --> 01:13:33.510
what your number one is, because I haven't heard

01:13:33.510 --> 01:13:38.489
it yet. But my number one is Ghost Bar in Las

01:13:38.489 --> 01:13:45.250
Vegas. and Coyote Ugly in Las Vegas. So I've

01:13:45.250 --> 01:13:49.930
been to two. I'll talk Ghost Bar first. Ghost

01:13:49.930 --> 01:13:59.109
Bar is... Ghost Bar in Las Vegas is a great place.

01:13:59.510 --> 01:14:03.210
Now, it's in the Palms Hotel. It's on the roof.

01:14:05.010 --> 01:14:09.819
Now, anyone that knows me knows I... do not like

01:14:09.819 --> 01:14:15.220
heights true at all this was a major miracle

01:14:15.220 --> 01:14:18.840
to get me to go up there anyway the story is

01:14:18.840 --> 01:14:22.039
i get this great like long weekend at the palms

01:14:22.039 --> 01:14:24.819
like room was like 39 bucks a night like i got

01:14:24.819 --> 01:14:27.439
us a sweet deal and part of the sweet deal was

01:14:27.439 --> 01:14:31.300
getting free vip pass to the ghost bar and i'm

01:14:31.300 --> 01:14:33.819
like great so i talked to my friend and i said

01:14:33.819 --> 01:14:36.539
hey dude make sure you bring your suit coat because

01:14:36.539 --> 01:14:38.979
we're hitting up this ghost bar on our last night

01:14:38.979 --> 01:14:42.300
here. What does he not bring? Oh, he does not

01:14:42.300 --> 01:14:46.739
bring a suit coat. But I'm like, okay, I'm going

01:14:46.739 --> 01:14:50.579
right. I brought mine. I am I'm going to this

01:14:50.579 --> 01:14:54.979
bar. I'm so glad I did. I get up there. It's

01:14:54.979 --> 01:14:59.079
like 830. And it's a blast. Like inside, it's

01:14:59.079 --> 01:15:01.840
all like glass and neon. Looks like something

01:15:01.840 --> 01:15:03.640
out of Miami Vice. Right. I mean, it's just crazy.

01:15:04.079 --> 01:15:06.439
But then you step out into this veranda, and

01:15:06.439 --> 01:15:08.880
it's rather large. And I made the mistake of

01:15:08.880 --> 01:15:13.960
looking up. Oh, no. I looked up to go, oh, yep,

01:15:14.119 --> 01:15:18.220
we're on the roof. I just saw the big poem sign,

01:15:18.220 --> 01:15:21.779
and I'm like, oh, man, my stomach just went brrr,

01:15:21.779 --> 01:15:26.899
just dropped. I'm like, oh, no. And so I... So

01:15:26.899 --> 01:15:29.560
I'm like, okay, I'm going back inside. So I go

01:15:29.560 --> 01:15:32.319
back inside. I made friends with the guy in the

01:15:32.319 --> 01:15:35.140
bathroom. Not what you think. So I made the friends.

01:15:35.920 --> 01:15:39.760
So to recap on this episode. Oh no. My father

01:15:39.760 --> 01:15:41.779
likes meat in his mouth and the man from the

01:15:41.779 --> 01:15:44.439
bathroom. For anyone who is wondering where we're

01:15:44.439 --> 01:15:48.100
at, please do tell. Alright, back to the guy

01:15:48.100 --> 01:15:51.039
in the bathroom. So this guy in the bathroom.

01:15:51.279 --> 01:15:52.520
This guy in the bathroom. I told him I like meat

01:15:52.520 --> 01:15:57.779
in my mouth. Next. Uh, so he's the guy that,

01:15:57.779 --> 01:16:01.840
like, he has the mints, he has, like, the cloth

01:16:01.840 --> 01:16:04.420
you wipe your hand with, and, like, that guy

01:16:04.420 --> 01:16:07.699
in the bathroom. Yes. The assistant. What a shitty

01:16:07.699 --> 01:16:14.199
job. Anyway. I make friends with him. I go in

01:16:14.199 --> 01:16:16.619
there and I talk with him. You know why? Because

01:16:16.619 --> 01:16:20.079
he's not out on the roof. So I'm hanging out

01:16:20.079 --> 01:16:21.840
with the dude. He's got that bonus. I'm drinking

01:16:21.840 --> 01:16:23.800
gin and tonics with the dude in the bathroom.

01:16:24.569 --> 01:16:28.130
Really, it's it's gonna be fine. So he's also

01:16:28.130 --> 01:16:32.270
selling cigars. My man At that point, I don't

01:16:32.270 --> 01:16:34.590
believe we were buddy buddy with Cuba yet in

01:16:34.590 --> 01:16:38.470
terms of oh yet Kubano's so he's like, ah, man,

01:16:38.489 --> 01:16:40.329
you want some cubanos? I'm like, ah, dude. Yes,

01:16:40.649 --> 01:16:44.390
excellent. So I'm tipping him well and I'm drinking

01:16:44.390 --> 01:16:46.689
gin and tonics the bartenders give me like two

01:16:46.689 --> 01:16:50.760
for one Dude, I'm rocked. I am I'm like eight

01:16:50.760 --> 01:16:53.119
gin and tonics in I am feeling good. I'm on my

01:16:53.119 --> 01:16:57.239
second Cubano I'm brave. I'm going back out on

01:16:57.239 --> 01:17:00.699
the roof. I must go to the edge two reasons number

01:17:00.699 --> 01:17:02.520
one I'm gonna face my fear number two because

01:17:02.520 --> 01:17:04.399
that's where all the hot women were at Oh sure

01:17:04.399 --> 01:17:07.000
so I go out on the roof. I'm having a great time

01:17:07.000 --> 01:17:11.220
an amazing bar and I'm like I'm gonna walk to

01:17:11.220 --> 01:17:13.449
the edge I'm gonna put my hand on the railing,

01:17:13.510 --> 01:17:15.649
I'm going to walk to the edge, but I'm not gonna

01:17:15.649 --> 01:17:18.930
look down, because that would be stupid. Sure.

01:17:19.229 --> 01:17:20.750
I'm gonna look straight ahead, out onto the,

01:17:20.829 --> 01:17:22.789
because that's what you're looking at, the palms

01:17:22.789 --> 01:17:26.229
is just off strip, so when your view is the strip,

01:17:26.430 --> 01:17:28.869
all lit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Un -frickin' -real.

01:17:28.890 --> 01:17:32.649
That's awesome. So I did that, and literally

01:17:32.649 --> 01:17:34.850
I could feel my leg shaking. Oh sure. I could

01:17:34.850 --> 01:17:36.930
feel them shaking. And everybody else is like,

01:17:37.329 --> 01:17:40.780
woo, yeah, blah, blah, blah, and I'm like. Why

01:17:40.780 --> 01:17:43.319
do I feel like I'm about to die? This is terrible.

01:17:43.659 --> 01:17:46.060
Why am I the only one panicking? Why am I the

01:17:46.060 --> 01:17:48.100
only guy with the gin and tonic shaking in his

01:17:48.100 --> 01:17:50.760
right hand? So I did it for a minute or two,

01:17:50.819 --> 01:17:52.500
and then I'm like, OK, I faced my fear. I'm getting

01:17:52.500 --> 01:17:56.039
the hell out of here. And there's a much grander

01:17:56.039 --> 01:17:58.420
story that happens afterwards, involving winning

01:17:58.420 --> 01:18:00.760
lots of money, driving around with a Lamborghini

01:18:00.760 --> 01:18:02.880
with some Arab guy I just met. It's an amazing

01:18:02.880 --> 01:18:05.659
story. It's what happens when a low -level menace

01:18:05.659 --> 01:18:09.479
is by himself in Las Vegas. But definitely Ghost

01:18:09.479 --> 01:18:12.340
Bar. And then Coyote Ugly, once again, out by

01:18:12.340 --> 01:18:15.800
myself in Las Vegas. Oh, Coyote Ugly, I remember

01:18:15.800 --> 01:18:19.260
they used to have one of these in Chicago. Amazing,

01:18:19.600 --> 01:18:21.640
like music, they're dancing on the bar, it's

01:18:21.640 --> 01:18:25.949
crazy. He got crazy, and we're gonna leave it

01:18:25.949 --> 01:18:29.869
at that. Coyote Ugly, Ghost Bar Las Vegas. That's

01:18:29.869 --> 01:18:33.050
fun. That's a fun number one. It is a fun number

01:18:33.050 --> 01:18:35.210
one. My number one may be what you inferred.

01:18:35.329 --> 01:18:38.930
It's the Nine Irish Brothers in West La. We went

01:18:38.930 --> 01:18:43.350
there for the Purdue Spring Game this year. So

01:18:43.350 --> 01:18:46.170

01:21:45.960 --> 01:21:48.619
reaffirming that Braxton and Christian are the

01:21:48.619 --> 01:21:51.420
new action duo worth rooting for. I give The

01:21:51.420 --> 01:21:55.560
Accountant 2 8 .3 out of 10. That's solid. It's

01:21:55.560 --> 01:21:57.579
a higher ranking than the first Accountant, which

01:21:57.579 --> 01:22:00.899
I think I gave a 7 -8 or a 7 -9. I loved it.

01:22:00.920 --> 01:22:04.659
Those two, what a team. and it's like I said

01:22:04.659 --> 01:22:08.500
it's funny and it's it's uh there's scenes that

01:22:08.500 --> 01:22:11.960
are just like light -hearted and it's just it's

01:22:11.960 --> 01:22:15.199
it's fun because like I'm not giving anything

01:22:15.199 --> 01:22:18.300
away but but um Affleck's character is on the

01:22:18.300 --> 01:22:22.960
spectrum so like imagine being that but also

01:22:22.960 --> 01:22:26.800
being a master assassin right What I mean who

01:22:26.800 --> 01:22:29.739
thought of that? Yeah, and it just works. That's

01:22:29.739 --> 01:22:32.380
great. It just it's a chef's kiss Oh for sure.

01:22:32.439 --> 01:22:36.140
It's so good My preview is the Thunderbolts,

01:22:36.159 --> 01:22:39.560
which I'll review next week an unconventional

01:22:39.560 --> 01:22:42.279
team of anti -heroes Yelena Belova Bucky Barnes

01:22:42.279 --> 01:22:45.680

by the cunning Valentina De Allegra De Fontaine,

01:22:52.890 --> 01:22:55.649
that's what her name is, with formidable villain

01:22:55.649 --> 01:22:58.369
known as The Void, played by Lewis Pullman. He

01:22:58.369 --> 01:23:00.550
was really good, by the way, but I can't say

01:23:00.550 --> 01:23:03.270
that now. I'll say that next week. Looming over

01:23:03.270 --> 01:23:05.869
them, they are thrust into perilous mission,

01:23:06.210 --> 01:23:08.130
each haunted by the darkest corners of their

01:23:08.130 --> 01:23:10.609
past. As they navigate treacherous landscapes

01:23:10.609 --> 01:23:12.750
and face their inner demons, they must learn

01:23:12.750 --> 01:23:15.390
to trust one another and harness their unique

01:23:15.390 --> 01:23:19.449
skills. The tasks escalate. As they confront

01:23:19.449 --> 01:23:22.670
the void forcing them to unite for a chance at

01:23:22.670 --> 01:23:25.670
redemption Directed by Jake Schreier and featuring

01:23:25.670 --> 01:23:28.390
an ensemble cast this thrilling tale Explores

01:23:28.390 --> 01:23:31.329
a true meaning of heroism amidst chaos Thunderbolts

01:23:31.329 --> 01:23:33.909
premieres May 2nd across theaters nationwide

01:23:33.909 --> 01:23:37.289
Wonderful. Yeah, that's excellent. I would say

01:23:37.289 --> 01:23:40.010
it's good, but I can't you can't get that's the

01:23:40.010 --> 01:23:44.010
preview It's the preview. Yeah next week. Oh

01:23:44.010 --> 01:23:47.329
cuz I quote -unquote haven't seen it yet. Of

01:23:47.329 --> 01:23:49.329
course, of course. It's not like I went the first

01:23:49.329 --> 01:23:51.529
night it was out. No. I wouldn't do that with

01:23:51.529 --> 01:23:54.329
a Marvel movie would I? Oh my goodness. But sure.

01:23:54.470 --> 01:23:56.409
The listeners wouldn't dare think. They wouldn't

01:23:56.409 --> 01:23:59.229
dare think that. But next week we'll definitely

01:23:59.229 --> 01:24:02.869
review it. Yeah, review it. It was good. But

01:24:02.869 --> 01:24:06.789
anyway, before we take our break, Aidan always

01:24:06.789 --> 01:24:09.130
gives us a little nugget, a little tidbit on

01:24:09.130 --> 01:24:12.859
things that we need to know about. I don't know,

01:24:13.020 --> 01:24:16.439
maybe while we were sleeping, a game, a movie,

01:24:16.720 --> 01:24:20.859
a show that we should know about. So true. What

01:24:20.859 --> 01:24:24.119
should we know about? While you were snoozing

01:24:24.119 --> 01:24:27.439
away, this little video game snuck past you.

01:24:27.460 --> 01:24:32.979
A game called The Cabin Factory. Ooh. A PC horror

01:24:32.979 --> 01:24:36.000
puzzle game where players take on the role of

01:24:36.000 --> 01:24:39.729
a cabin inspector. in a factory that produces

01:24:39.729 --> 01:24:43.229
haunted cabins. It's inspired by these psychological

01:24:43.229 --> 01:24:47.890
horror games like P .T., Exit 8, Observation

01:24:47.890 --> 01:24:50.449
Duty, things like that. The game tasks players

01:24:50.449 --> 01:24:53.390
with inspecting cabins that show up on a conveyor

01:24:53.390 --> 01:24:57.670
belt to determine whether they are haunted in

01:24:57.670 --> 01:25:00.529
the literal sense or in the figurative sense.

01:25:00.869 --> 01:25:05.050
Because they're producing haunted cabins for

01:25:05.050 --> 01:25:07.890
like... attractions, but you have to find out

01:25:07.890 --> 01:25:12.850
whether they're haunted. Oh. So you have to detect

01:25:12.850 --> 01:25:15.029
whether there's movement inside. Each cabin is

01:25:15.029 --> 01:25:19.029
based on the real story where a family tragedy

01:25:19.029 --> 01:25:21.770
occurred in one of the cabins and all of the

01:25:21.770 --> 01:25:25.130
props are related to that family tragedy. So

01:25:25.130 --> 01:25:27.810
you have to determine whether these cabins are

01:25:27.810 --> 01:25:29.829
haunted enough for like the attraction scene

01:25:29.829 --> 01:25:32.449
or haunted to the point where, hey, I might die

01:25:32.449 --> 01:25:37.909
inspecting this cabin. Oh. So it's anomaly horror

01:25:37.909 --> 01:25:42.149
game -esque, but there's also that impending

01:25:42.149 --> 01:25:45.510
doom of like, if I'm wrong, one of these family

01:25:45.510 --> 01:25:48.449
members might come to life and kill me. Wow.

01:25:49.409 --> 01:25:52.489
And then there's the, pardon me, there's the

01:25:52.489 --> 01:25:58.869
underlying story of what happened to the family

01:25:58.869 --> 01:26:03.710
in the cabin. Did they perish? If they did perish,

01:26:03.810 --> 01:26:06.649
how did they perish? Who's at fault? Because

01:26:06.649 --> 01:26:09.050
who's haunting you in the game when you find

01:26:09.050 --> 01:26:12.130
the actual haunted anomalies? Well, you gotta

01:26:12.130 --> 01:26:16.510
play to find out. Right. So it's very fun and

01:26:16.510 --> 01:26:20.090
engaging. And the graphics look phenomenal. I

01:26:20.090 --> 01:26:24.430
think the game, I own it on my computer. It'll

01:26:24.430 --> 01:26:26.550
be on my channel, Aiden spelled the right way

01:26:26.550 --> 01:26:31.799
here soon. But, not to plug, but I'll plug. But

01:26:31.799 --> 01:26:36.500
it looks amazing. It costs like four dollars

01:26:36.500 --> 01:26:39.279
Really? It's it's like a full you could sink

01:26:39.279 --> 01:26:42.380
a couple hours into it. It costs four dollars

01:26:42.380 --> 01:26:46.300
for the video game and it's Crisp looking. Oh,

01:26:46.300 --> 01:26:48.680
that's awesome. I have one of the better graphics

01:26:48.680 --> 01:26:52.779
cards. It's not an expensive one, but it's Better

01:26:52.779 --> 01:26:56.619
than the benchmark average sure and even that

01:26:56.619 --> 01:26:59.560
has trouble running unlike the ultra graphics

01:27:00.289 --> 01:27:03.090
Settings like that's how clean it is like I have

01:27:03.090 --> 01:27:07.109
to run it on like medium or high like it looks

01:27:07.109 --> 01:27:11.710
amazing So the cabin factory if you've got a

01:27:11.710 --> 01:27:14.789
decent PC and four dollars, and you like horror

01:27:14.789 --> 01:27:19.069
games I will suggest that for you That's awesome

01:27:19.069 --> 01:27:24.050
the cabin factory. Yes. That is creepy and cool

01:27:24.510 --> 01:27:27.510
Creepy and cool. I love games like that. Make

01:27:27.510 --> 01:27:29.670
sure you guys try and get four bucks. How could

01:27:29.670 --> 01:27:31.409
you not? Absolutely. You now have a homework

01:27:31.409 --> 01:27:34.449
assignment. My man. Let's go. All right, we're

01:27:34.449 --> 01:27:35.949
gonna take one more break. We're coming back

01:27:35.949 --> 01:27:38.130
and we're gonna drink some beer. We may have

01:27:38.130 --> 01:27:40.470
been drinking some already, but let's pretend

01:27:40.470 --> 01:27:43.329
we are not and we're gonna come back. We're gonna

01:27:43.329 --> 01:27:47.210
drink some beer and we're taking a break from

01:27:47.210 --> 01:27:48.430
World of Weird News. We're gonna try something

01:27:48.430 --> 01:27:50.829
a little different. We've done it before. You

01:27:50.829 --> 01:27:53.029
may recognize it. We'll do it again. Stick around.

01:28:03.139 --> 01:28:05.399
Hey, we're back everybody. I told you we bring

01:28:05.399 --> 01:28:07.939
it around town. We're feeling good. And we're

01:28:07.939 --> 01:28:09.800
gonna start sampling some beers. This is our

01:28:09.800 --> 01:28:13.680
beer review. And Aidan, what do we have this

01:28:13.680 --> 01:28:15.899
delightful beer, this delightful aroma? What

01:28:15.899 --> 01:28:18.520
do we have tonight? This is the Blinding Light

01:28:18.520 --> 01:28:23.159
Show by Warpig's Brewing. And Warpig's Brewing

01:28:23.159 --> 01:28:27.319
is an interesting company because they are co

01:28:27.319 --> 01:28:31.399
-owned or co -brewed by Three Floyd's, which

01:28:31.399 --> 01:28:35.279
is a local brewery in northwest Indiana, and

01:28:35.279 --> 01:28:40.079
McKellar Brewing, which is from Denmark. So,

01:28:40.659 --> 01:28:44.579
they both own War Pigs. So, this Blinding Light

01:28:44.579 --> 01:28:49.079
Show brew is the U .S. version, and then in Denmark,

01:28:49.239 --> 01:28:51.739
they make Blinding Light Show the Denmark version.

01:28:51.939 --> 01:28:53.779
So, we have the U .S. version, of course, that's

01:28:53.779 --> 01:28:57.060
the only one we can get. but it is apparently

01:28:57.060 --> 01:29:01.960
an ale brewed with orange and lemon peels. Kind

01:29:01.960 --> 01:29:06.779
of spicy, seven and a half percent. So a touch

01:29:06.779 --> 01:29:11.119
higher than your normal brew, but we both like

01:29:11.119 --> 01:29:14.920
ales and I'm a citrus guy. I might not be a sour

01:29:14.920 --> 01:29:18.159
beer fan, but I am a citrus guy. So I'm interested

01:29:18.159 --> 01:29:21.380
to taste this beer. And if you at home are enjoying

01:29:21.380 --> 01:29:24.140
a brewski yourself, let us know what you're having

01:29:24.140 --> 01:29:27.069
and if you like it. Indeed. We're gonna rank

01:29:27.069 --> 01:29:29.930
this beer on a scale from one to five and tell

01:29:29.930 --> 01:29:32.270
all of you lovely people how this blinding light

01:29:32.270 --> 01:29:36.670
show by War Pigs Brewing is. Indeed. Not sponsored,

01:29:36.750 --> 01:29:39.149
but we will give an honest opinion. Yes, we will.

01:29:39.270 --> 01:29:42.930
That's what we do. Cilantro. Cilantro. Okay,

01:29:43.229 --> 01:29:47.970
interesting. Refreshing. Yeah. I understand the

01:29:47.970 --> 01:29:51.029
lemon and orange peel now. Yeah. Because it's

01:29:51.029 --> 01:29:56.340
not lemon and orange. It's it's the bitters of

01:29:56.340 --> 01:29:59.460
the peel that come through. Yeah. Oh, yeah, like

01:29:59.460 --> 01:30:04.899
it's almost that orange Marmalady type vibe Definitely

01:30:04.899 --> 01:30:08.899
lemon oil Like it's not lemon citrusy sweetness.

01:30:08.899 --> 01:30:12.880
It's like lemon oil in your face citrus bitter

01:30:12.880 --> 01:30:16.000
type flavor Very refreshing. I mean you're talking

01:30:16.000 --> 01:30:18.859
you're talking summer day. This would kill it.

01:30:18.859 --> 01:30:21.859
It's like oh for sure. It's like a shandy if

01:30:21.859 --> 01:30:24.220
you were to increase the bitterness by five.

01:30:24.760 --> 01:30:27.699
Yeah. You know, I think that's fair to say. That

01:30:27.699 --> 01:30:30.539
is fair. I enjoy it. I like bitter things. I

01:30:30.539 --> 01:30:34.479
like my coffee black, like my men. So, this is

01:30:34.479 --> 01:30:38.460
right up my alley, to be completely honest. Lay

01:30:38.460 --> 01:30:41.279
them down and slack them, jack them. So, not

01:30:41.279 --> 01:30:43.779
to be biased. If you're not a fan of bitter,

01:30:44.000 --> 01:30:47.220
you might not enjoy this. I am a fan of bitter,

01:30:47.319 --> 01:30:51.260
and I do enjoy this. I'm gonna give this a three...

01:30:51.100 --> 01:30:58.779
two five out of five. All right, I have, I'm

01:30:58.779 --> 01:31:03.380
walking on a fence here in that there are certain

01:31:03.380 --> 01:31:05.979
things of a better nature I do like, things I

01:31:05.979 --> 01:31:09.699
don't. Typically with my beers I don't, but I

01:31:09.699 --> 01:31:12.520
do like citrus in my beer. Sure. So, like for

01:31:12.520 --> 01:31:16.239
example, I love a vice beer. Oh yeah. Like that's

01:31:16.239 --> 01:31:20.390
really good. So that being the case, I it's a

01:31:20.390 --> 01:31:23.850
bit of a quandary for me and and the fence that

01:31:23.850 --> 01:31:27.390
I'm sitting on is the the three fence as oh sure

01:31:27.390 --> 01:31:33.329
because It just it lingers on the palate a little

01:31:33.329 --> 01:31:37.390
bit too long. I can agree with that Yeah for

01:31:37.390 --> 01:31:40.810
my for my liking I get that I do love the citrus

01:31:40.810 --> 01:31:47.350
taste a lot so That being the case I'm gonna

01:31:47.350 --> 01:31:50.579
go I'm going to go with straight three. 3 .0.

01:31:50.579 --> 01:31:53.659
3 .0 is where I'm going with this. Yeah. It is

01:31:53.659 --> 01:31:55.119
solid. If it's in the fridge, I'm going to drink

01:31:55.119 --> 01:31:59.720
it. But it's not one of those situations where

01:31:59.720 --> 01:32:03.420
I feel like I'm going to pound 10 of them. Sure.

01:32:03.420 --> 01:32:08.479
I don't think that's this beer. But on a warm

01:32:08.479 --> 01:32:10.739
summer day, am I going to have a couple of them?

01:32:10.800 --> 01:32:13.640
Sure. Right. No question. Yeah. It's good. As

01:32:13.640 --> 01:32:16.720
you said, the bitter does tend to stay on the

01:32:16.720 --> 01:32:20.659
tongue. for a while after it's out of your mouth.

01:32:21.600 --> 01:32:24.140
But yeah, it's just like you could have one or

01:32:24.140 --> 01:32:26.680
two maybe after mowing the lawn or something.

01:32:27.000 --> 01:32:31.279
Yep. Very refreshing in that way. No doubt. I've

01:32:31.279 --> 01:32:34.939
got on my flavor profiles, I selected hoppy and

01:32:34.939 --> 01:32:37.460
tropical. Yeah, I got hoppy too. I think it's

01:32:37.460 --> 01:32:40.420
that balance. Yeah. I added citrus and bitter

01:32:40.420 --> 01:32:46.279
as well to mine. But yeah, I enjoy it. I do too.

01:32:46.409 --> 01:32:51.329
I definitely do, and it's very interesting. One

01:32:51.329 --> 01:32:53.529
thing we don't typically talk a lot about is

01:32:53.529 --> 01:32:55.890
the can design, and I think the design of the

01:32:55.890 --> 01:32:58.550
can is, if I had to rate that on a five, I'd

01:32:58.550 --> 01:33:00.050
probably give it a four and a half. It is so

01:33:00.050 --> 01:33:03.109
cool. It's really cool, yeah. This is one of

01:33:03.109 --> 01:33:06.229
the brands we carry at my job, or distribute,

01:33:06.649 --> 01:33:11.340
rather, at my job, and we have a trailer. That

01:33:11.340 --> 01:33:13.739
you know tractor trailer semi truck transport

01:33:13.739 --> 01:33:15.720
truck, whatever you call it. One of our trailers

01:33:15.720 --> 01:33:21.079
is designed with war pigs branding on it Easily

01:33:21.079 --> 01:33:23.739
one of the coolest trailers we have because it

01:33:23.739 --> 01:33:27.399
looks like one of these cans Oh, no way. It's

01:33:27.399 --> 01:33:30.039
that is so neat. Really cool If anyone out there

01:33:30.039 --> 01:33:32.279
is curious you can look up like the war pigs

01:33:32.279 --> 01:33:38.220
brewing can designs. It's fantastic art so really

01:33:38.220 --> 01:33:41.720
really neat yeah indeed i would agree uh but

01:33:41.720 --> 01:33:44.159
uh you know it's it's not over yet we're gonna

01:33:44.159 --> 01:33:46.460
wrap this up true that was the official beer

01:33:46.460 --> 01:33:49.279
review did i said we'd bring this thing around

01:33:49.279 --> 01:33:51.279
town it took maybe a little bit longer than i

01:33:51.279 --> 01:33:54.279
wanted to but i think we did damn right i think

01:33:54.279 --> 01:33:56.939
we're pretty damn successful and i mean it could

01:33:56.939 --> 01:34:00.399
be the copious amounts of um positivity we've

01:34:00.399 --> 01:34:06.029
been drinking Copious amounts. Word of the day,

01:34:06.109 --> 01:34:10.270
you're welcome. But we typically do finish with

01:34:10.270 --> 01:34:12.430
World of Weird News. Now, we switch it up from

01:34:12.430 --> 01:34:14.449
time to time. Keep it fresh. With a couple of

01:34:14.449 --> 01:34:17.710
different... Call us the Fabriz brothers. Feel

01:34:17.710 --> 01:34:19.369
so fresh right now. It's the last time, Alan.

01:34:19.649 --> 01:34:23.590
Last time, Alan. So this time we're going to

01:34:23.590 --> 01:34:28.569
do a tier listing. Tier listing. Now this is

01:34:28.569 --> 01:34:31.189
something that's come over from the AK -219 guys,

01:34:31.750 --> 01:34:34.189
but I've got one of them here, so it's legal.

01:34:34.409 --> 01:34:36.529
That is true. We're not violating any laws. Absolutely

01:34:36.529 --> 01:34:38.770
not. I give full consent to provide the tier

01:34:38.770 --> 01:34:41.590
listing that I created for AK219 on the Mark

01:34:41.590 --> 01:34:43.829
Mo show. And you know what, to be completely

01:34:43.829 --> 01:34:47.550
honest, even if, oh, I don't know, say the Supreme

01:34:47.550 --> 01:34:51.310
Court voted nine to nothing to say, hey, you

01:34:51.310 --> 01:34:53.529
can't do that, we could still do it. That's so

01:34:53.529 --> 01:34:55.789
true. It seems that way these days. Yeah, like

01:34:55.789 --> 01:34:58.479
they're not even important anymore. Yeah. Really

01:34:58.479 --> 01:35:00.359
weird. It's almost like a dictatorship or something.

01:35:00.560 --> 01:35:04.439
Kind of like, I am king. Yeah. I am king of the

01:35:04.439 --> 01:35:09.779
forest. Oh my god, what a clown. Anyway, we said

01:35:09.779 --> 01:35:11.560
we're gonna stay positive. Let's finish strong.

01:35:12.840 --> 01:35:15.000
God damn it. We're gonna finish strong, I'm telling

01:35:15.000 --> 01:35:17.779
you. All right, we got tier listing. What are

01:35:17.779 --> 01:35:21.600
we doing? Absolutely. We are tier listing American

01:35:21.600 --> 01:35:26.520
cities. Okay. Pretty subjective. Well... It's

01:35:26.520 --> 01:35:28.460
a tier list, of course it's gonna be damn subjective,

01:35:28.640 --> 01:35:32.380
right? We're ranking things. But, we're taking

01:35:32.380 --> 01:35:35.020
American cities and we're giving them a rank

01:35:35.020 --> 01:35:37.979
from F being the worst of the worst of the worst,

01:35:38.399 --> 01:35:41.760
D being bad, C being mid, B being good, A being

01:35:41.760 --> 01:35:45.659
great, S being supreme, the best of the best

01:35:45.659 --> 01:35:51.239
of the best. Now, I have 40 American cities.

01:35:51.640 --> 01:35:55.710
Ooh, I have the 30 most populous in order. And

01:35:55.710 --> 01:35:59.130
then I've got 10 other American sports cities

01:35:59.130 --> 01:36:02.890
that weren't included in those 30 populous ones.

01:36:04.270 --> 01:36:07.729
So we're going to split these up? Do part one,

01:36:07.770 --> 01:36:10.670
part two? We absolutely could. I see nothing

01:36:10.670 --> 01:36:13.630
illegal about that decision. I think we should

01:36:13.630 --> 01:36:16.460
take that into next week, too. Oh, part two,

01:36:16.560 --> 01:36:19.420
leave the people on a cliffhanger, no! I think

01:36:19.420 --> 01:36:21.640
so, I think we have to do that. Oh my goodness.

01:36:21.760 --> 01:36:23.579
I mean, they might do that in certain Marvel

01:36:23.579 --> 01:36:27.319
movies I haven't seen yet, have seen. Well, we're

01:36:27.319 --> 01:36:30.199
gonna, we're gonna strip down this population

01:36:30.199 --> 01:36:33.420
rank. Now, a good handful of these cities I have

01:36:33.420 --> 01:36:35.979
not been to, I'm not sure if you have, you've

01:36:35.979 --> 01:36:40.600
been a lot of places. I've 44 states, 45, let

01:36:40.600 --> 01:36:43.819
loose count. I'm somewhere in the 30s, I think.

01:36:43.840 --> 01:36:46.460
That's impressive. But yeah, most of these cities

01:36:46.460 --> 01:36:49.119
I have not been to, so if I have not been to

01:36:49.119 --> 01:36:52.100
these, I will not give my opinion, unless otherwise

01:36:52.100 --> 01:36:55.520
granted. Okay. And the ruling will fall onto

01:36:55.520 --> 01:36:59.859
you. Ooh, okay. Number one, New York City. New

01:36:59.859 --> 01:37:03.539
York City. Been there a couple times. I like

01:37:03.539 --> 01:37:06.979
it quite a bit. I would go A. A? Mm -hmm. That's

01:37:06.979 --> 01:37:09.100
pretty fun. I don't like their sports teams very

01:37:09.100 --> 01:37:11.420
much. Nope, I don't. But if you're talking...

01:37:11.550 --> 01:37:15.029
Food if you're tight cold and I'm not a New York

01:37:15.029 --> 01:37:17.609
pizza guy and I know that we can have this battle

01:37:17.609 --> 01:37:19.930
ladies and gentlemen It's mother date. I don't

01:37:19.930 --> 01:37:23.260
hate it. It's just not my favorite Floppy ass,

01:37:23.359 --> 01:37:26.239
greasy ass pizza. Italian restaurants, steak

01:37:26.239 --> 01:37:28.060
joints, all that. New York's got great places,

01:37:28.220 --> 01:37:31.220
good bars, pubs, the whole thing. If you go out

01:37:31.220 --> 01:37:33.260
on a long island, it's amazing. Port Jeff is

01:37:33.260 --> 01:37:38.279
cool. And White Plains is suburban -y. It's fine.

01:37:39.300 --> 01:37:41.199
But if you're out in Manhattan, out on the aisle,

01:37:41.699 --> 01:37:44.500
it's pretty neat. Definitely a solid A. Solid

01:37:44.500 --> 01:37:47.840
A? I have never been, and besides my opinion

01:37:47.840 --> 01:37:51.039
on the sports teams, I got nothing to add. NYC

01:37:51.039 --> 01:37:54.340
gets an A. There we go. They also have pretty

01:37:54.340 --> 01:37:57.220
fun rappers come out of there. Absolutely. Yeah,

01:37:57.220 --> 01:37:58.960
very good culture out in New York City. You want

01:37:58.960 --> 01:38:01.819
to talk culture? The next one on the tier list,

01:38:02.420 --> 01:38:05.520
Los Angeles. Los Angeles, it's an interesting

01:38:05.520 --> 01:38:09.260
city. That's one, boy oh boy, that's one where

01:38:09.260 --> 01:38:11.899
it's like not even a city because it's just so

01:38:11.899 --> 01:38:16.880
vast and spread out and... It's hard to determine.

01:38:17.039 --> 01:38:18.699
It's almost like a bunch of little cities that

01:38:18.699 --> 01:38:20.699
make up one city. Yeah, it's got like seven different

01:38:20.699 --> 01:38:23.359
city centers. It really does. It's kind of bizarre.

01:38:24.699 --> 01:38:27.020
I don't hate it. I love it when I go out there.

01:38:27.039 --> 01:38:29.819
I have a lot of fun because that's like the goal.

01:38:30.119 --> 01:38:32.260
This is a city that's fun. Go have fun. Right.

01:38:32.359 --> 01:38:35.579
Don't try to look for any sort of cultural redemption

01:38:35.579 --> 01:38:38.880
or anything like that because I don't think you're

01:38:38.880 --> 01:38:40.159
going to find it in Los Angeles. Right, right,

01:38:40.159 --> 01:38:45.579
right. A solid B. A solid B for LA. A solid B.

01:38:46.300 --> 01:38:49.819
I think I want to kick that up. And, you know,

01:38:49.899 --> 01:38:52.899
this is... It's two of us, right? So, of course,

01:38:53.000 --> 01:38:54.640
we have to... Oh, yeah. We have to agree. We

01:38:54.640 --> 01:38:57.199
have to agree. I would want to kick that up to

01:38:57.199 --> 01:39:00.140
a B plus or A minus, maybe. Because of the amount

01:39:00.140 --> 01:39:02.600
of culture that's come out of LA. And you're

01:39:02.600 --> 01:39:05.539
talking, like, West Coast rap. West Coast rap.

01:39:05.699 --> 01:39:08.340
If you're talking Hollywood. I mean, if you're

01:39:08.340 --> 01:39:11.640
talking about... That's true. You know, the inspiration

01:39:11.640 --> 01:39:15.420
in American film and music culture, a lot of

01:39:15.420 --> 01:39:16.979
that's come out of the West Coast, and a lot

01:39:16.979 --> 01:39:20.899
of that is L .A. That's fair. That is fair. I'll

01:39:20.899 --> 01:39:23.720
go B+. B +, okay. I will agree with you on that.

01:39:24.000 --> 01:39:27.300
L .A. will kick up to a B+. That brings us to

01:39:27.300 --> 01:39:31.949
city number three. Sweet! Home Chicago, baby.

01:39:32.409 --> 01:39:35.689
S. And I don't mean to be a homer on this. I

01:39:35.689 --> 01:39:37.729
really don't. But when you've traveled as much

01:39:37.729 --> 01:39:40.449
as I have and been to most major American cities,

01:39:40.890 --> 01:39:44.430
I feel I can say it with absolute confidence

01:39:44.430 --> 01:39:46.970
that summertime in Chicago, there's not another

01:39:46.970 --> 01:39:50.270
major city I would rather be in. It's fantastic.

01:39:50.710 --> 01:39:54.829
If you're looking for culture, Chicago has it.

01:39:55.010 --> 01:39:56.909
And they have neighborhoods that are rich in

01:39:56.909 --> 01:40:00.199
culture from Puerto Rican neighborhoods, Mexican

01:40:00.199 --> 01:40:02.800
neighborhoods, Bronzeville. So if you're looking

01:40:02.800 --> 01:40:04.859
for African -American culture, you've got that.

01:40:05.140 --> 01:40:07.920
You've got Swedish neighborhoods up north, German

01:40:07.920 --> 01:40:12.069
neighborhoods, Ukrainian village, Polish. Definitely

01:40:12.069 --> 01:40:14.449
pull a stronghold well Irish little German. You

01:40:14.449 --> 01:40:17.270
got a little bit of everything So you have that

01:40:17.270 --> 01:40:19.210
within the neighborhoods, but city center itself?

01:40:19.470 --> 01:40:21.949
There's a million and a half things to do. Oh,

01:40:21.949 --> 01:40:24.229
yeah, the lakefront. It's almost like an ocean

01:40:24.229 --> 01:40:26.750
I mean, it's a massive lake and it's beautiful

01:40:26.750 --> 01:40:30.050
and It's so blue in the summer and the boats

01:40:30.050 --> 01:40:32.350
out there calling it a lake is almost unfair.

01:40:32.350 --> 01:40:35.729
It's almost unfair and They have this thing called

01:40:35.729 --> 01:40:38.050
the playpen so people take all their boats and

01:40:38.050 --> 01:40:39.590
they kind of bring them into this one section

01:40:39.590 --> 01:40:41.739
of the lake and people just jump off their boats

01:40:41.739 --> 01:40:44.479
and they swim and they ride their jet skis. And

01:40:44.479 --> 01:40:46.800
it's just, it's, it's great. Even at Christmas

01:40:46.800 --> 01:40:50.659
time in Chicago with the lights and Chris Kindle

01:40:50.659 --> 01:40:53.949
market. it's Chicago there honestly there's no

01:40:53.949 --> 01:40:57.069
other city like it um and granted i am not the

01:40:57.069 --> 01:40:59.590
world traveler so maybe if i were to London or

01:40:59.590 --> 01:41:02.529
Paris or Berlin or some other place yeah Dublin

01:41:02.529 --> 01:41:05.170
i would feel a little bit differently but right

01:41:05.170 --> 01:41:07.949
now i i don't there isn't another one that matches

01:41:07.949 --> 01:41:10.449
with it yes in my opinion i would agree no notes

01:41:10.449 --> 01:41:14.029
Chicago s absolutely next one on the list i've

01:41:14.029 --> 01:41:17.250
not been to i'm not sure if you have Houston,

01:41:17.590 --> 01:41:21.050
the fourth most populous in America. I have not

01:41:21.050 --> 01:41:23.069
been to Houston. I do have friends that live

01:41:23.069 --> 01:41:26.470
in Houston. I do know it is hot. I know it is

01:41:26.470 --> 01:41:30.229
humid from as far as cultural goes or things

01:41:30.229 --> 01:41:33.229
that you maybe get out of Houston, other than

01:41:33.229 --> 01:41:38.510
maybe food. Yeah, food. You got the Texans, CJ

01:41:38.510 --> 01:41:41.430
Stroud. Right. So you got Texans, you got football.

01:41:41.880 --> 01:41:44.359
You know, so there are some, but then he got

01:41:44.359 --> 01:41:46.939
baseball cheaters, so. Right, right. You know,

01:41:47.359 --> 01:41:49.939
the sports is kind of a washroom. Trastros, right.

01:41:50.380 --> 01:41:52.279
Trastros. And then you get August where it's

01:41:52.279 --> 01:41:55.180
110 degrees with 80 % humidity. That's tough.

01:41:56.859 --> 01:42:00.819
I'm thinking C+. Yeah, I'm not gonna quote unquote

01:42:00.819 --> 01:42:03.819
bag it per se, but. Sure. C, I think is fine.

01:42:03.819 --> 01:42:06.500
C, C +, maybe? Yep. Yeah, we'll go C. Make it

01:42:06.500 --> 01:42:08.960
even. Next one on the list I have been to, I'm

01:42:08.960 --> 01:42:12.020
not sure if you have, this is Phoenix, Arizona.

01:42:12.739 --> 01:42:16.199
Phoenix, Arizona, and I've been to Phoenix briefly.

01:42:16.640 --> 01:42:18.539
I spent a lot of time in Tempe where Arizona

01:42:18.539 --> 01:42:21.520
State is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Had a blast. When

01:42:21.520 --> 01:42:23.140
you're poolside with a bunch of - Twin cities.

01:42:23.760 --> 01:42:28.130
Yeah. When you're poolside with - You know, a

01:42:28.130 --> 01:42:30.789
bunch of coeds and dudes, frat guys, and you're

01:42:30.789 --> 01:42:34.869
playing catch or football. And it's a great time.

01:42:35.289 --> 01:42:39.649
Yeah. I was not sober. But it was a really great.

01:42:39.649 --> 01:42:41.250
It was the Lord intended. It was the Lord intended.

01:42:41.390 --> 01:42:44.569
It was a great time. Sure. But Phoenix is just

01:42:44.569 --> 01:42:46.970
kind of, and no offense to people from Phoenix,

01:42:47.149 --> 01:42:49.529
it's just meh. This is there. It's OK. It's like

01:42:49.529 --> 01:42:51.789
Schaumburg in the desert. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:42:51.890 --> 01:42:53.949
So I would just. I would agree. I would give

01:42:53.949 --> 01:42:57.729
it a C. Would give I'm mmm. You know what? I

01:42:57.729 --> 01:43:00.689
agree. I think I'll go see I when I went there

01:43:00.689 --> 01:43:04.210
I was a wee lad I want to say mid teens or something

01:43:04.210 --> 01:43:08.270
like no, maybe young teens But yeah, it was we

01:43:08.270 --> 01:43:10.470
went in the summer It had to have been June or

01:43:10.470 --> 01:43:13.329
something like that June or July and it's hot,

01:43:13.390 --> 01:43:15.850
but it's dry hot dry It's different. So you're

01:43:15.850 --> 01:43:19.289
right there hundred and five degrees feels like

01:43:19.289 --> 01:43:24.939
our 90. Yeah, 95. Yeah, it's It's kind of crazy

01:43:24.939 --> 01:43:26.819
and of course I got sunburned cuz I got that

01:43:26.819 --> 01:43:29.979
pale -ass Irish skin and yeah 15 minutes in the

01:43:29.979 --> 01:43:32.840
Sun I look like a fucking lobster, but it was

01:43:32.840 --> 01:43:35.939
fun But I was also with family extended family,

01:43:35.960 --> 01:43:38.600
but I was a family so that sways my opinion,

01:43:38.600 --> 01:43:43.279
but Hey, Phoenix is fine. It's fine to see we'll

01:43:43.279 --> 01:43:47.140
go to the sixth most populous city Philadelphia

01:43:47.140 --> 01:43:52.060
Philly Now that's funny because I used to D -minus

01:43:52.060 --> 01:43:55.640
maybe I used to have a sports show on the radio

01:43:55.640 --> 01:44:00.680
and Aidan was a co -host for a long time we had

01:44:00.680 --> 01:44:02.720
other guest hosts and we used to bag on Philly

01:44:02.720 --> 01:44:05.819
all the time that's true from a sports perspective

01:44:05.819 --> 01:44:09.539
yes so the Flyers and the Eagles and the Philly

01:44:09.539 --> 01:44:14.680
they can go to hell yes but That aside, I kind

01:44:14.680 --> 01:44:18.619
of get the vibe of the people. I kind of get

01:44:18.619 --> 01:44:21.939
it. Very, very proud people. Right. So Delco

01:44:21.939 --> 01:44:25.159
and all that. I get it. They seem to have some

01:44:25.159 --> 01:44:28.420
underrated pizza going on. Philly cheesesteaks,

01:44:28.800 --> 01:44:31.640
dude. I love me a Philly cheesesteak. You automatically

01:44:31.640 --> 01:44:34.500
get a plus. That's a plus for the Philly cheesesteak

01:44:34.500 --> 01:44:37.880
man. And of course, the birth of the country

01:44:37.880 --> 01:44:40.739
and the bell and one of my favorite movies is

01:44:40.739 --> 01:44:43.880
Rocky. Rocky takes place in Philadelphia. So

01:44:43.880 --> 01:44:46.500
I think B is a fair score. I'm willing to go

01:44:46.500 --> 01:44:51.149
B plus on the fact... that they beat the KC Chiefs

01:44:51.149 --> 01:44:54.010
last Super Bowl. Oh, yes. I forgot about that.

01:44:54.270 --> 01:44:57.170
Damn you, NFL, for making me root for the Eagles

01:44:57.170 --> 01:45:00.109
last year. Exactly. Oh, my God. Philadelphia,

01:45:00.829 --> 01:45:05.720
an unexpected B+. B+. I love that. Next up, San

01:45:05.720 --> 01:45:09.960
Antonio, Texas. San Antonio, Texas. I don't know

01:45:09.960 --> 01:45:12.760
much about them besides the Spurs. A lot of history,

01:45:13.000 --> 01:45:16.779
the Alamo, the whole thing. They probably deserve

01:45:16.779 --> 01:45:19.079
an NFL team. They got the Alamo Dome down there.

01:45:19.239 --> 01:45:24.859
Be kind of a cool venue. Sure. Yeah. Yeah, it's

01:45:24.859 --> 01:45:26.899
it's kind of in the Houston ballpark for me.

01:45:26.960 --> 01:45:31.479
I would probably. I'll go C plus. C plus. I'll

01:45:31.479 --> 01:45:35.560
go C plus. That sounds fair, and I agree completely.

01:45:35.899 --> 01:45:39.079
Next up on the list, something something wills

01:45:39.079 --> 01:45:44.239
vagina, San Diego. San Diego. San Diego. Absolutely

01:45:44.239 --> 01:45:47.260
San Diego. Anyone that has not seen Anchorman

01:45:47.260 --> 01:45:51.199
is really really confused right now. Yes. And

01:45:51.199 --> 01:45:53.819
that sounds like a task for you to go watch Anchorman.

01:45:53.920 --> 01:45:57.590
You should. You should. Watch Anchorman for sure.

01:45:57.930 --> 01:46:00.069
San Diego gets a plus on whatever their score

01:46:00.069 --> 01:46:03.130
is. San Diego. Simply because of Anchorman. Absolutely.

01:46:03.630 --> 01:46:08.390
A glass case of emotion. I give it a solid A.

01:46:09.279 --> 01:46:12.619
Street tacos. I'm not a big fish taco guy, but

01:46:12.619 --> 01:46:14.420
apparently some of the best fish tacos you can

01:46:14.420 --> 01:46:17.180
get on this planet are out of San Diego. Sounds

01:46:17.180 --> 01:46:20.260
fair. The California burrito was invented in

01:46:20.260 --> 01:46:24.260
San Diego as well. The Padre Stadium looks cool

01:46:24.260 --> 01:46:26.939
as hell. I'd love to check that out sometime.

01:46:29.880 --> 01:46:33.619
Yeah. Just seems cool. yeah it's just it's it's

01:46:33.619 --> 01:46:36.300
a vibe it's like you have la and all the craziness

01:46:36.300 --> 01:46:39.319
that la brings with that you know the former

01:46:39.319 --> 01:46:43.260
heavy metal scene and whiskey a go -go and partying

01:46:43.260 --> 01:46:45.600
at the beach and you know did i wake up next

01:46:45.600 --> 01:46:50.869
to a young person in my day Yes, that was a thing

01:46:50.869 --> 01:46:53.970
in LA. As a wee lad yourself. As a wee lad myself,

01:46:54.310 --> 01:46:56.569
you know, a college dude waking up next to a

01:46:56.569 --> 01:46:58.930
college girl in the morning not knowing what

01:46:58.930 --> 01:47:01.729
the fuck happened. That happened. That's LA.

01:47:02.010 --> 01:47:05.310
That shit happens there. San Diego is more of

01:47:05.310 --> 01:47:09.489
like a wine and cheese and fish tacos. Class.

01:47:10.130 --> 01:47:13.630
Class. Santiago. Yeah, it's an A. Straight up

01:47:13.630 --> 01:47:17.420
A. I agree completely. Next on the list. Dallas,

01:47:18.039 --> 01:47:19.939
Texas. Dallas, Texas. I rank that a little bit

01:47:19.939 --> 01:47:23.319
differently than... Fuck the Cowboys, whatever

01:47:23.319 --> 01:47:25.100
their score is. Fuck the Cowboys anyway. They

01:47:25.100 --> 01:47:27.399
get a minus on it. They get a minus on that,

01:47:28.180 --> 01:47:34.359
but JFK, Dealey Plaza, all of that. The, um...

01:47:34.359 --> 01:47:36.579
The Sportatorium, I believe, is in Dallas, Texas.

01:47:36.939 --> 01:47:39.770
That was the birth of... world -class championship

01:47:39.770 --> 01:47:42.970
wrestling. Fonda Erickson, Chris Adams, and Ric

01:47:42.970 --> 01:47:45.489
Flair used to... Oh my god, it was the classics.

01:47:46.050 --> 01:47:49.550
So that still holds a part in me for sure. And

01:47:49.550 --> 01:47:52.430
look, I'm not a big country music guy, but I

01:47:52.430 --> 01:47:54.729
get some of the country stuff and I get the food

01:47:54.729 --> 01:47:56.810
that comes with it, which is amazing comfort

01:47:56.810 --> 01:48:01.569
food. I would say B for Dallas. And we'll go

01:48:01.569 --> 01:48:03.920
B minus because it's... Dallas, Texas. Because

01:48:03.920 --> 01:48:05.659
it's the Cowboys. Yeah, it's the Cowboys. Okay,

01:48:05.880 --> 01:48:09.819
fair. Next on the list, Jacksonville Flow Rider.

01:48:11.140 --> 01:48:14.180
Schaumburg on the ocean, sea. Yeah. It's just,

01:48:14.739 --> 01:48:16.439
it's... It's fine. It's very, it's very mid.

01:48:16.500 --> 01:48:18.180
If you're going to Florida, Jacksonville's low

01:48:18.180 --> 01:48:20.920
on your list. Yeah. It's not the important place.

01:48:21.180 --> 01:48:22.960
It is not. It really is not. Jacksonville gets

01:48:22.960 --> 01:48:25.560
a C. I want to put a C - in there, actually.

01:48:25.579 --> 01:48:28.800
Okay. If it's okay with you. Yes. Because the

01:48:28.800 --> 01:48:31.979
Jacksonville Jaguars are bad at football. which

01:48:31.979 --> 01:48:34.619
is the one thing you do in football. And it's

01:48:34.619 --> 01:48:37.539
the one sport that they have. Yeah. Austin, Texas

01:48:37.539 --> 01:48:41.600
is next. Oh, dude. That is on my bucket list.

01:48:41.619 --> 01:48:43.159
Yes. Oh, I agree. I've got a friend that wants

01:48:43.159 --> 01:48:45.380
to go down there. We may go in a group. I think

01:48:45.380 --> 01:48:48.840
that would be awesome. Besides the fact that

01:48:48.840 --> 01:48:50.640
I think University of Texas is right there, which

01:48:50.640 --> 01:48:53.810
would be kind of neat to see. It is also like

01:48:53.810 --> 01:48:56.890
South by Southwest has their festival there and

01:48:56.890 --> 01:49:00.729
I think it's just a fantastic city a fun city

01:49:00.729 --> 01:49:05.470
I'd give it a B plus B plus sounds completely

01:49:05.470 --> 01:49:09.090
fair and that rating is subject to change Should

01:49:09.090 --> 01:49:12.739
we go? Should we go that is true? Next on this

01:49:12.739 --> 01:49:16.079
list is Fort Worth, which I didn't know was this

01:49:16.079 --> 01:49:17.800
high on the population list. I didn't either.

01:49:18.199 --> 01:49:20.880
I think Dallas -Fort Worth is kind of like the

01:49:20.880 --> 01:49:25.760
twin cities in Texas. But, I don't know. Other

01:49:25.760 --> 01:49:27.840
than having the Cowboys Stadium, which I think

01:49:27.840 --> 01:49:30.020
is in Fort Worth, I don't think they have much

01:49:30.020 --> 01:49:34.020
else. So I'm gonna go C. Actually, how do you

01:49:34.020 --> 01:49:36.920
feel about D +, because if they're just known

01:49:36.920 --> 01:49:40.060
for the Cowboys? Fair. That's even worse. D+.

01:49:40.060 --> 01:49:42.699
D+. Sorry people from Fort Worth. D+. It's not

01:49:42.699 --> 01:49:44.720
against you, it's against your team. It's against...

01:49:44.720 --> 01:49:50.619
Next on the list, San Jose. San Jose. Now I've

01:49:50.619 --> 01:49:53.920
been out in that part of the world and once again,

01:49:54.079 --> 01:49:55.560
it's like if you're up in Northern California,

01:49:55.739 --> 01:49:58.460
you're like, you're going to Sacramento, you're

01:49:58.460 --> 01:50:00.600
going to San Francisco. Sure. Yeah. And then

01:50:00.600 --> 01:50:04.039
it's like, oh we're in San Jose. Cool. Cool man.

01:50:04.970 --> 01:50:07.770
So, back to San Fran, right? So, back to San

01:50:07.770 --> 01:50:11.609
Francisco, right? Yeah, San Jose, I would probably

01:50:11.609 --> 01:50:14.810
give a C. I'll be fair and be a C +, just because

01:50:14.810 --> 01:50:17.130
I like Northern California. I like the vibe.

01:50:17.250 --> 01:50:20.750
I love the weather. So, I'll give it a C+. Yes,

01:50:20.770 --> 01:50:24.409
I agree with that. San Jose, C+. The final three.

01:50:24.609 --> 01:50:30.649
Ooh, okay. Columbus. Oh, dude. Not only is Ohio

01:50:30.649 --> 01:50:37.739
not real, Columbus is a... It's a city. I've

01:50:37.739 --> 01:50:40.380
been to Columbus. I did not see an Ohio State

01:50:40.380 --> 01:50:42.939
football game. I'm sure that would be fun going

01:50:42.939 --> 01:50:44.859
to the horseshoe and seeing a game and doing

01:50:44.859 --> 01:50:47.859
the tailgating. Oh, Buckeyes. I'm sure that would

01:50:47.859 --> 01:50:49.579
be fun. Yeah. Especially if they're beating on

01:50:49.579 --> 01:50:53.100
a certain team from Michigan. But anyway, I get

01:50:53.100 --> 01:50:55.180
yelled at for that. What? I don't care. Yeah.

01:50:55.939 --> 01:50:58.939
But I think... We're Wolverines. We're anger.

01:51:01.359 --> 01:51:07.229
God. Anyway, I would, God, there's not much to

01:51:07.229 --> 01:51:10.130
Columbus other than the university, to be fair.

01:51:10.649 --> 01:51:14.310
It's got a downtown area. It's kind of like,

01:51:14.409 --> 01:51:16.189
I don't know, we're from Valparaiso, Indiana.

01:51:17.440 --> 01:51:21.619
35, 40 ,000 people, whatever. And Columbus is

01:51:21.619 --> 01:51:24.500
a bigger city, but I got that vibe, like a bigger

01:51:24.500 --> 01:51:28.239
version of this. Like we're a big town, but it's

01:51:28.239 --> 01:51:30.420
small town, big town. It's kind of a little bit

01:51:30.420 --> 01:51:35.180
confusing at times. But to me, it was okay. I

01:51:35.180 --> 01:51:38.960
went around town, had a good dinner, a bar. The

01:51:38.960 --> 01:51:40.659
university is a thing. Without the university,

01:51:40.739 --> 01:51:42.060
I don't think Columbus would be a thing. No,

01:51:42.060 --> 01:51:45.920
I agree. I agree. So, C plus? Yeah, C plus is

01:51:45.920 --> 01:51:48.899
fine. There's not a soul on earth that could

01:51:48.899 --> 01:51:52.880
break me into B. On any Ohio city. No, that's

01:51:52.880 --> 01:51:57.319
fair. Penultimate, Charlotte. Charlotte. I have

01:51:57.319 --> 01:51:59.699
been to Charlotte. No, Charlottes is in Michigan.

01:52:00.579 --> 01:52:03.039
Those pretentious assholes. Bastards. No, it

01:52:03.039 --> 01:52:05.140
is Charlotte. Oh, it's Charlo. It's Charlotte.

01:52:05.199 --> 01:52:08.020
I've been to Charlotte. I was a menace in Charlotte,

01:52:08.060 --> 01:52:10.060
but that's a different story for another day.

01:52:10.380 --> 01:52:12.640
It's a different story for another day. Charlotte's

01:52:12.640 --> 01:52:18.079
a great town. I like it a lot. Just has everything

01:52:18.079 --> 01:52:20.380
you can want. Good bar scene, good restaurants.

01:52:21.460 --> 01:52:24.020
Like a solid B. It is definitely a solid. Like

01:52:24.020 --> 01:52:26.640
if you're going to North Carolina, go to Charlotte.

01:52:26.880 --> 01:52:28.920
Yeah, that's the place to be. Yep, I think so.

01:52:28.939 --> 01:52:30.659
And you're near the coast. I mean, unless you

01:52:30.659 --> 01:52:33.619
go to like... Is that Myrtle Beach? Is that North

01:52:33.619 --> 01:52:35.319
Carolina or South Carolina? I think it's North

01:52:35.319 --> 01:52:36.760
Carolina. It's the Carolinas. Yeah, like Myrtle

01:52:36.760 --> 01:52:37.920
Beach would be different because it's on the

01:52:37.920 --> 01:52:39.640
ocean. But if you're going, go to Charlotte,

01:52:39.680 --> 01:52:42.420
there's stuff to do. I would agree. Next on this

01:52:42.420 --> 01:52:44.439
list, I didn't know is this high in the population

01:52:44.439 --> 01:52:47.800
list until recently. Final one for this week

01:52:47.800 --> 01:52:51.720
on Tier Listing, Indianapolis. Indianapolis.

01:52:52.319 --> 01:52:54.619
Indianapolis. We are from Indiana. Damn right.

01:52:54.960 --> 01:52:57.779
We've been to Indianapolis before. I'm going

01:52:57.779 --> 01:53:02.779
to say this. There are... Very nice establishments

01:53:02.779 --> 01:53:04.819
there. Yes, I've gone to bars. I've gone to restaurants

01:53:04.819 --> 01:53:10.920
very nice. I think as a city overall in general

01:53:10.920 --> 01:53:14.640
pretty dull They just had like a big wrestling

01:53:14.640 --> 01:53:18.159
event there and people were stranded on the street.

01:53:18.159 --> 01:53:21.520
There weren't enough uber drivers Lyft drivers,

01:53:22.140 --> 01:53:25.659
no bus service. There's no public transit. Public

01:53:25.659 --> 01:53:28.520
transit sucks. So like they're talking about,

01:53:28.800 --> 01:53:30.500
oh, let's have a Super Bowl here. Let's have

01:53:30.500 --> 01:53:32.720
a WrestleMania here. Don't. That would be a terrible

01:53:32.720 --> 01:53:35.220
idea. A nightmare. You don't want mass amounts

01:53:35.220 --> 01:53:37.060
of people in this city because they don't know

01:53:37.060 --> 01:53:40.680
how to deal with it. They're like NCAA is located

01:53:40.680 --> 01:53:42.920
there. They're a joke of an organization, as

01:53:42.920 --> 01:53:44.760
we know. That's true. That's true. So there's

01:53:44.760 --> 01:53:47.659
just there's things I don't like. I went to a

01:53:47.659 --> 01:53:51.960
soccer event with your sister. Sure. That was

01:53:51.960 --> 01:53:54.899
fun. They have a great deli there. Almost rivals

01:53:54.899 --> 01:53:58.100
Manny's in Chicago. Very good. They have fantastic

01:53:58.100 --> 01:54:00.420
food in Indiana. It's underrated. Yes, definitely

01:54:00.420 --> 01:54:04.020
underrated. I agree. But the city as it is conceived,

01:54:05.000 --> 01:54:08.159
very disjointed, very kind of confusing at times.

01:54:08.640 --> 01:54:10.079
I had a friend that went down there for a comedy

01:54:10.079 --> 01:54:12.279
show and just had a terrible time. Just it was

01:54:12.279 --> 01:54:14.699
like a weird vibe. I'm like, that's indie. It's

01:54:14.699 --> 01:54:16.920
a weird vibe. Yeah. I have two words for indie.

01:54:16.920 --> 01:54:20.579
Weird vibe. Yeah. That's what I come up with.

01:54:21.479 --> 01:54:23.939
I'm trying to be nice because I'm from this state

01:54:23.939 --> 01:54:27.020
and I don't want to be taxed. Yeah, right, right.

01:54:27.979 --> 01:54:32.079
I'm feeling C plus, B minus territory. I was

01:54:32.079 --> 01:54:36.100
thinking C minus. C minus? Do we meet in the

01:54:36.100 --> 01:54:42.359
middle at C or C plus? Because for Indiana, the

01:54:42.359 --> 01:54:46.260
food is fantastic. As far as Indiana's conferred,

01:54:46.380 --> 01:54:50.260
the food is fantastic. We are no longer in direct

01:54:50.260 --> 01:54:52.479
rivals with the Indianapolis Colts. That's not

01:54:52.479 --> 01:54:53.739
a problem. That's true. That's not a problem.

01:54:53.819 --> 01:54:55.479
That's not a problem. And sure, their public

01:54:55.479 --> 01:54:58.579
transit is dogshit, but if you drove there by

01:54:58.579 --> 01:55:02.220
car or got there by train, not that the trains

01:55:02.220 --> 01:55:05.180
are any good either. There's a certain female

01:55:05.180 --> 01:55:07.979
basketball player that plays for the Indiana

01:55:07.979 --> 01:55:12.020
Fever. who I think is a badass bitch. I will

01:55:12.020 --> 01:55:14.800
give you that C+. Give us the C+. I will give

01:55:14.800 --> 01:55:17.920
you that C+. In Indianapolis, and that leads

01:55:17.920 --> 01:55:20.239
us to the end of tier listing for this week.

01:55:20.279 --> 01:55:23.319
We will continue down the population list and

01:55:23.319 --> 01:55:25.840
some additional sports cities next week on the

01:55:25.840 --> 01:55:28.640
