Speaker:
00:00:00
Finally the Scott
Speaker:
00:00:03
has come back to craft beer.
Speaker:
00:00:07
He's got up here. OK.
Speaker:
00:00:09
You're fine. OK,
Speaker:
00:00:21
Welcome, everybody, to Craft Beer Republic.
Speaker:
00:00:25
Thanks for drinking.
Speaker:
00:00:26
Thanks for joining. I am Greg.
Speaker:
00:00:28
I'm being joined by the sexiest injury in all of the Midwest.
Speaker:
00:00:33
And that's Flex Me a black guy.
Speaker:
00:00:35
That's what's happening, bud.
Speaker:
00:00:37
Emote up a little too hard this past weekend.
Speaker:
00:00:40
Oh, any tears shed?
Speaker:
00:00:42
No tears shed.
Speaker:
00:00:43
Just a really pretty shiner. Nice.
Speaker:
00:00:46
Well, we'll talk about that in a couple of you.
Speaker:
00:00:48
I want to also ask you if you painted your nails.
Speaker:
00:00:50
Don't answer just yet.
Speaker:
00:00:52
I'm hoping. I'm hoping you did.
Speaker:
00:00:55
And then join us for the first time in a long time
Speaker:
00:00:57
because he demanded to give flex and workout tips.
Speaker:
00:01:02
Welcome back.
Speaker:
00:01:04
Welcome for the first time to this version of the show.
Speaker:
00:01:07
Scott.
Speaker:
00:01:08
Hey, what's up, everybody?
Speaker:
00:01:10
What's happenin? What? You know, voice.
Speaker:
00:01:13
You know who.
Speaker:
00:01:17
It's it's kind of like the song Elton John sings.
Speaker:
00:01:20
The bitch is back. OK.
Speaker:
00:01:24
Look, as they wrapped up like a douche, but that works.
Speaker:
00:01:28
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:01:28
And plus, the I did those flex kind of let himself go a little bit, so.
Speaker:
00:01:31
Yeah. Tips for him.
Speaker:
00:01:33
Was for everyone that's angry on Twitter, by the way.
Speaker:
00:01:35
I know that it's revved up like a deuce.
Speaker:
00:01:37
And also,
Speaker:
00:01:38
I know that's not an Elton John song, so please don't add me for that one.
Speaker:
00:01:42
Yeah, Flex is looking a little flabby these days and could really use some tips
Speaker:
00:01:46
from someone who really just pour is on the iron over there.
Speaker:
00:01:51
Oh, man.
Speaker:
00:01:52
Yeah, this couldn't work out better for me. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:01:55
This is great.
Speaker:
00:01:56
Your wife's going to be so excited. Like,
Speaker:
00:01:59
she's like, it's about goddamn time.
Speaker:
00:02:01
Scott, come back.
Speaker:
00:02:02
Oh, gosh.
Speaker:
00:02:03
Anyways, like I said, thanks for drink and thanks for join in.
Speaker:
00:02:06
Follow us on the socials.
Speaker:
00:02:08
Flex me beer underscores in between.
Speaker:
00:02:10
And of course, Craft Beer Republic
Speaker:
00:02:13
I'm trying to do this whole real thing.
Speaker:
00:02:15
Fuckin Instagram and their goddamn damn.
Speaker:
00:02:17
And I'm trying to play somewhat nice, but I just hate them.
Speaker:
00:02:20
So suck on Instagram.
Speaker:
00:02:23
Sorry. That's.
Speaker:
00:02:24
That's the algorithms and everything.
Speaker:
00:02:26
It's just. It's all.
Speaker:
00:02:27
Yeah, I got this thing in days is like, you can no longer post videos.
Speaker:
00:02:31
They have to be real. And I'm like, first of all, really?
Speaker:
00:02:33
What's the difference?
Speaker:
00:02:34
But second, yeah, it's like, second of all, fuck off Instagram.
Speaker:
00:02:37
So we'll see. Maybe I'll join Ticktock or it's like.
Speaker:
00:02:40
The only thing that makes sense anymore is that nothing makes sense.
Speaker:
00:02:44
That is true.
Speaker:
00:02:45
So it's OK. Scott still in my space.
Speaker:
00:02:47
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:02:47
I was thinking about downloading Instagram, but not now.
Speaker:
00:02:50
You're right.
Speaker:
00:02:52
This sounds. A waste of. Typing.
Speaker:
00:02:53
It is like. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:02:54
I they wait.
Speaker:
00:02:56
I can't add a profile song to this.
Speaker:
00:03:00
Where's my top.
Speaker:
00:03:01
Eight
Speaker:
00:03:04
love?
Speaker:
00:03:04
Everybody. Like, where do I check the bulletin?
Speaker:
00:03:06
Where is the bulletin?
Speaker:
00:03:07
I need to find the surveys.
Speaker:
00:03:09
I like how everyone was like, Hey, I'm going to just shout it out to the world.
Speaker:
00:03:13
Who I do and don't like of my actual friends.
Speaker:
00:03:16
Here's the top eight people that I, I do like.
Speaker:
00:03:19
Yeah, that was always a big thing to me.
Speaker:
00:03:21
Like, the top was the top six or top eight.
Speaker:
00:03:23
Because either way, it was like, okay, it's like, I like you.
Speaker:
00:03:26
I mean, you always felt like the girl you're dating at the time is number one,
Speaker:
00:03:29
always on that.
Speaker:
00:03:30
It was like, you know, whoever, because who cares?
Speaker:
00:03:33
After that.
Speaker:
00:03:34
Then do you just console people say, well, you were number nine,
Speaker:
00:03:37
you almost made it.
Speaker:
00:03:38
Yeah, MR.
Speaker:
00:03:39
You just you're right there. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:03:43
If it wasn't for that bud light you brought to the party last week.
Speaker:
00:03:45
Yeah. You know, sneaked up to number eight.
Speaker:
00:03:47
Keep trying.
Speaker:
00:03:48
But if.
Speaker:
00:03:49
Somebody dies, you're in. The.
Speaker:
00:03:52
Past don't go. Don't go killing anybody.
Speaker:
00:03:54
But yeah.
Speaker:
00:03:56
It's not worth this.
Speaker:
00:03:57
It's not worth the top eight.
Speaker:
00:03:59
Yeah, that's for sure.
Speaker:
00:04:00
Well, the things we remember.
Speaker:
00:04:02
Thanks, MySpace. Is MySpace still does it exist?
Speaker:
00:04:04
I know.
Speaker:
00:04:04
Was like a band. Hi, Tom Lee.
Speaker:
00:04:06
I don't exactly.
Speaker:
00:04:09
So weird.
Speaker:
00:04:11
Anyways, all right. Lots to get to today.
Speaker:
00:04:14
Some interesting news in the beer world.
Speaker:
00:04:16
The modern time saga is still going, as is the Stone Saga.
Speaker:
00:04:19
Big award for Matt Brandel sent over at Firestone Thanks to Vanessa.
Speaker:
00:04:24
We'll get it out early. Hi, Vanessa.
Speaker:
00:04:26
Oh, hey, Vanessa. Hey, Vanessa.
Speaker:
00:04:28
She sent us in a news story about a Florida man being arrested
Speaker:
00:04:32
inside inside of a Wal-Mart.
Speaker:
00:04:34
What's what's more harmonious than Florida man?
Speaker:
00:04:37
And Wal-Mart, they just go hand in hand.
Speaker:
00:04:40
So we'll get to that.
Speaker:
00:04:41
But right now, it is time to kick off the celebration.
Speaker:
00:04:45
This is batch three. 16.
Speaker:
00:04:47
There's only one beer that we can be drinking on batch three. 16
Speaker:
00:05:08
oh, right.
Speaker:
00:05:09
We've had this on the show before. Back on 172.
Speaker:
00:05:12
But for batch three, six teen, we had to crack open
Speaker:
00:05:17
not only a cantaloupe ass, but El Segundo Bruins Broken Skull IPA
Speaker:
00:05:21
6.7% has 67 abuse
Speaker:
00:05:25
and this is kind of cool the untapped and beer advocates scores have not changed
Speaker:
00:05:30
since we had it on 172 in October of 2019 3.8 and untapped 88.
Speaker:
00:05:35
I'll be your advocate real quick they say broken skull IPA a bad ass 6.7%
Speaker:
00:05:40
India pale ale designed by Steve Austin and El Segundo Brewing Company
Speaker:
00:05:44
for the working man and woman.
Speaker:
00:05:45
It features Citra Cascade
Speaker:
00:05:47
and Chinook Hops to deliver a big flavor with an easy finish.
Speaker:
00:05:51
Now stop reading and start enjoying this awesome beer.
Speaker:
00:05:53
Cheers Steve I assume that's Steve Austin
Speaker:
00:05:58
I can I can say we've had it before.
Speaker:
00:06:00
I think I had a case of these at WrestleMania
Speaker:
00:06:02
this year for obvious reasons, and it is just a classic old school
Speaker:
00:06:08
IPA a lot of Westie going on reigns me,
Speaker:
00:06:11
a lot of Torpedo IPA from Sierra Nevada, just real dank and bitter
Speaker:
00:06:17
and but balanced it's not like uh, you know, quite to teeth
Speaker:
00:06:21
shattering balance, but lot of a lot of pine in this one.
Speaker:
00:06:24
Yeah, it's a good piney beer and I know Steve because we're good friends.
Speaker:
00:06:29
He, he kind of it's he likes this here in Nevada
Speaker:
00:06:33
and I think he may have, you know, said, hey, I'll take this and maybe just,
Speaker:
00:06:36
you know, tweak it a little bit, make it a little bit better.
Speaker:
00:06:39
But yeah, it's just a good basic IPA.
Speaker:
00:06:43
Yeah, it's, it's a working man's IPA.
Speaker:
00:06:45
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:06:46
Well, I could drink it one or two or three or four cases of those.
Speaker:
00:06:51
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:06:52
What was it? The promise of a beer. What?
Speaker:
00:06:55
Another beer. What? Another beer? Well, a fourth beer.
Speaker:
00:06:57
A shot of tequila.
Speaker:
00:06:59
What would you drink? Yeah.
Speaker:
00:07:01
I mean, if you like IPAs, this is a good beer to buy.
Speaker:
00:07:04
It's a damn good beer. And that's all I got to say about that.
Speaker:
00:07:08
Well.
Speaker:
00:07:09
They're then well played and the price point is pretty gnarly.
Speaker:
00:07:13
You know, it does kind of fall in the, the algorithm it's
Speaker:
00:07:17
perfect for the algorithm.
Speaker:
00:07:19
Is I don't remember how much it cost.
Speaker:
00:07:22
The here it's like something like 1299.
Speaker:
00:07:26
For four pack that's not bad.
Speaker:
00:07:27
Oh it's not bad at all.
Speaker:
00:07:29
The American lottery. Is like. 999.
Speaker:
00:07:32
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:07:32
You know I'll say I wasn't
Speaker:
00:07:33
expecting much of that lager, but it's pretty pretty good Bri.
Speaker:
00:07:37
Not bad. Had a few of those at WrestleMania two.
Speaker:
00:07:39
Yeah. It's not bad at all.
Speaker:
00:07:42
Go, go, go out and get those.
Speaker:
00:07:44
Yeah. I have to apologize.
Speaker:
00:07:45
I didn't think folks had access to these in Milwaukee and I didn't tell them
Speaker:
00:07:49
that the plan as of like 12 hours ago was to have this on the show for 316
Speaker:
00:07:54
and then.
Speaker:
00:07:54
Fine, I'm fine. It's fine. I know everything's fine. I'm fine.
Speaker:
00:07:57
All right.
Speaker:
00:07:58
Yeah, the suicide hotline number is one 800.
Speaker:
00:08:02
So. I'm sorry, Flex.
Speaker:
00:08:04
I didn't know you guys had no like a dick.
Speaker:
00:08:06
And anyways, it's true, you are being so.
Speaker:
00:08:09
I know.
Speaker:
00:08:11
It's a funny thing about the algorithm, right?
Speaker:
00:08:14
So I got a another buddy listening to the show now,
Speaker:
00:08:17
and he's now kind of diving into the craft scene.
Speaker:
00:08:21
Oh, good.
Speaker:
00:08:21
No, just.
Speaker:
00:08:22
Just mildly.
Speaker:
00:08:23
And his name's Dustin and.
Speaker:
00:08:26
Hi, Dustin, because he's going to listen to this show.
Speaker:
00:08:28
Dusty.
Speaker:
00:08:29
You came over a couple of nights ago to play cribbage,
Speaker:
00:08:32
which I don't think anybody outside the Midwest knows so.
Speaker:
00:08:35
No, under the age of 70.
Speaker:
00:08:37
Yeah, don't even ask me.
Speaker:
00:08:39
And I was telling him about this
Speaker:
00:08:41
beer.
Speaker:
00:08:42
I was drinking, and he brought up the algorithm out of nowhere,
Speaker:
00:08:46
and I'm just like, Shut up, please.
Speaker:
00:08:49
I'm listening to the show.
Speaker:
00:08:53
They're having Reese.
Speaker:
00:08:54
I think it was Deb.
Speaker:
00:08:56
I forget who I think it was.
Speaker:
00:08:57
Deb, someone recently was like, Yeah, but it totally fit the algorithm.
Speaker:
00:09:00
I was like.
Speaker:
00:09:01
Oh. Like, just in casual conversation.
Speaker:
00:09:04
Like the algorithm. Yes.
Speaker:
00:09:06
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker:
00:09:06
It kind of hits you out of left field and somebody brings it up.
Speaker:
00:09:09
You're like, Wow, people actually listen to the algorithm.
Speaker:
00:09:12
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:09:13
I mean, it's fucking science.
Speaker:
00:09:16
Well, I am a scientist.
Speaker:
00:09:18
You are.
Speaker:
00:09:18
You flex for president.
Speaker:
00:09:21
Come on, let's let's make this happen.
Speaker:
00:09:23
A craft beer in every hand and algorithm in every.
Speaker:
00:09:26
Wow. Now, well, now that doesn't work.
Speaker:
00:09:29
Anyways, let's let's move on to
Speaker:
00:09:33
perfect.
Speaker:
00:09:34
Let's move on to more interesting conversation.
Speaker:
00:09:37
Uh, last weekend was, was the old birthday
Speaker:
00:09:40
and so we did a nice little brewery crawl out to Ventura, California.
Speaker:
00:09:45
We hit up a few in the Midwest.
Speaker:
00:09:47
We hit, of course, Agra, went to oh, Jesus.
Speaker:
00:09:52
I'm drawing a blank all of a sudden. Topa, topa.
Speaker:
00:09:55
Thank you.
Speaker:
00:09:56
And then we went to a brewery that I will
Speaker:
00:09:58
all leave off the list of names.
Speaker:
00:10:00
It was so bad we didn't finish our beers.
Speaker:
00:10:02
We, three of us got three different beers, and none of them were good.
Speaker:
00:10:06
Wow. That's good. Now, I'm curious.
Speaker:
00:10:09
I won't say their names.
Speaker:
00:10:10
I will say they've been on the show before.
Speaker:
00:10:12
Who? Yeesh.
Speaker:
00:10:14
The locals. Oh, no. No.
Speaker:
00:10:17
It was rough.
Speaker:
00:10:18
And here's this brought up a question.
Speaker:
00:10:20
One of the beer tenders walked by.
Speaker:
00:10:23
We had just gotten our beers taken like two sips,
Speaker:
00:10:25
and maybe she goes, Uh, hey, you know, how's how's the beer?
Speaker:
00:10:27
You know, it being a good beer dinner. Hey, how's the beer? How's everything?
Speaker:
00:10:30
Like, hey.
Speaker:
00:10:32
You know one of those?
Speaker:
00:10:33
Because it's like, what am I going to say?
Speaker:
00:10:35
Hey, it's kind of shitty.
Speaker:
00:10:36
Like, all three of these different beers kind of suck.
Speaker:
00:10:38
Can you pour us three different ones? That'll probably also suck.
Speaker:
00:10:41
I mean, I didn't. Yeah, like, what's the right response here?
Speaker:
00:10:43
Is that you.
Speaker:
00:10:44
Every and all these beers are horrible.
Speaker:
00:10:46
Like, how do you respond?
Speaker:
00:10:47
It's not just like, one. One didn't come out great, or we're.
Speaker:
00:10:50
I'm not a fan of this one style. I mean, it's all styles.
Speaker:
00:10:52
We wanted in three separate beers.
Speaker:
00:10:54
None of them were were very good.
Speaker:
00:10:56
I was like, Yeah, it's great. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:10:59
You can fix it. You're not the brewer.
Speaker:
00:11:01
You know?
Speaker:
00:11:02
So I was just. Like, uh.
Speaker:
00:11:05
They were just playing the lines.
Speaker:
00:11:07
Right?
Speaker:
00:11:08
This did not taste like dirty lines.
Speaker:
00:11:11
So anyways,
Speaker:
00:11:11
then from there, we hit up a restaurant, had some cocktails, smart.
Speaker:
00:11:15
We had beer all day. Then had some cocktails.
Speaker:
00:11:16
Oh, we hit up.
Speaker:
00:11:17
The transmission to transmission is a little newer to the scene, and they just
Speaker:
00:11:21
opened a rooftop lounge area, which is awesome.
Speaker:
00:11:25
It overlooks the beach.
Speaker:
00:11:26
Damn, that's. Hot.
Speaker:
00:11:27
Oh, Daddy, it was so hot.
Speaker:
00:11:29
And on top of all that,
Speaker:
00:11:32
they don't.
Speaker:
00:11:33
The rooftop deck is 21 and over.
Speaker:
00:11:36
So, you know, there's no kids running around.
Speaker:
00:11:38
Just nice to chill, relax and spot for a beer and pizza.
Speaker:
00:11:43
Sounds like a gnarly birthday.
Speaker:
00:11:44
Yeah, it's good times the hundred.
Speaker:
00:11:46
The night before, the wife took me out to dinner.
Speaker:
00:11:48
Went to this place in downtown L.A..
Speaker:
00:11:51
It's kind of like 71 above, I think.
Speaker:
00:11:53
Anyways, it's on the 71st floor.
Speaker:
00:11:55
God can go there then, right? Yeah.
Speaker:
00:11:58
Finally there.
Speaker:
00:11:59
Was, I was like a it's like a. Club.
Speaker:
00:12:01
Yeah. I've been going there for years. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:12:06
That's exactly it.
Speaker:
00:12:09
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:12:09
It's on the very first floor of the US bank. It was really weird.
Speaker:
00:12:12
We're sitting there eating and like, out of the corner of my eye
Speaker:
00:12:15
like below me is a helicopter.
Speaker:
00:12:18
I was like, Whoa. It was like, what? It was like mid-conversation.
Speaker:
00:12:21
I was like, It's weird to see a helicopter below you when you're eating.
Speaker:
00:12:25
So let me. Ask you.
Speaker:
00:12:26
So you have a ginormous US bank building.
Speaker:
00:12:29
Yeah, that's because we have a giant US bank building in Milwaukee.
Speaker:
00:12:34
It's like the tallest building in the downtown.
Speaker:
00:12:36
Oh, this is.
Speaker:
00:12:37
I think this used to be the tall. It's not anymore.
Speaker:
00:12:39
It's like second or third tallest in downtown L.A., but
Speaker:
00:12:42
yeah, they have 72 floors the restaurant's on the 71st.
Speaker:
00:12:45
It's also known for having a slide that like goes out of like the 65th floor
Speaker:
00:12:50
and then like goes down a couple of floors back inside the building.
Speaker:
00:12:53
I guess they closed during COVID
Speaker:
00:12:54
and still haven't opened yet, but yeah, I would totally do otherwise.
Speaker:
00:12:57
Like, no fucking way.
Speaker:
00:12:58
No, I probably. Wouldn't do it here.
Speaker:
00:13:00
Oh, sounds awesome.
Speaker:
00:13:01
Would you? Would you skydive, flex.
Speaker:
00:13:03
I would consider it like I would need
Speaker:
00:13:06
somebody to come up to me like, Hey, I'm going to sign up to do this.
Speaker:
00:13:10
You need to do it with me.
Speaker:
00:13:12
And then that would probably be forced to sign up and then I would be scared
Speaker:
00:13:16
as shit to do it. But yeah, I would probably fucking do it.
Speaker:
00:13:18
All right.
Speaker:
00:13:18
Well, I'll be that guy now.
Speaker:
00:13:21
Yeah. So anyway, so that was fun.
Speaker:
00:13:23
Uh, had a nice little birthday weekend, then, uh,
Speaker:
00:13:27
things came to a not so good point.
Speaker:
00:13:31
I've talked about it many time.
Speaker:
00:13:32
On the show before.
Speaker:
00:13:34
Uh, Vin Scully voice the Dodgers
Speaker:
00:13:37
guy. If you need to get Kleenex, now's a great time.
Speaker:
00:13:39
Yeah, I've.
Speaker:
00:13:40
Got mine ready.
Speaker:
00:13:41
Passed away the other day. To me,
Speaker:
00:13:44
he was not only the voice of summer, but kind of like the grandpa of summer.
Speaker:
00:13:48
All my grandparents died really early.
Speaker:
00:13:50
Those like I grew up with Vin saying it's time for Dodger baseball.
Speaker:
00:13:54
I cried on his last little tear in his last broadcast from San Francisco
Speaker:
00:13:59
when he thanked everybody and said that he needed us more than we needed or,
Speaker:
00:14:03
you know, he needed has more than we needed him.
Speaker:
00:14:05
First of all, bullshit.
Speaker:
00:14:06
Second of all, I'm not crying.
Speaker:
00:14:07
You're crying.
Speaker:
00:14:09
Of course, tears were shed when they announced that he passed away.
Speaker:
00:14:13
And then to make things worse, the news decided to play over and over again.
Speaker:
00:14:16
The clip a few days later from Dodger Stadium, where asshole Dave Roberts
Speaker:
00:14:20
got the entire crowd to say It's time for Dodger baseball.
Speaker:
00:14:24
I fuck, man.
Speaker:
00:14:27
So with that,
Speaker:
00:14:27
before we share any Vince stories, I just I figured I'd play this.
Speaker:
00:14:31
This is my favorite Vine clip of all time because his voice is so great.
Speaker:
00:14:36
They got him to just read a grocery list because why not
Speaker:
00:15:30
Not so good.
Speaker:
00:15:32
Yeah, that's awesome.
Speaker:
00:15:33
Kosher, that is.
Speaker:
00:15:35
Yeah, kosher. That is. Bellona.
Speaker:
00:15:37
So it's a thanks to Vin for the many,
Speaker:
00:15:40
many years of being the best voice and definitely baseball.
Speaker:
00:15:44
And, I don't know, flex.
Speaker:
00:15:46
I mean, I'm sure you've heard of Vin Scully out there, right?
Speaker:
00:15:50
Oh, yeah.
Speaker:
00:15:50
Naturally. Who he is in Milwaukee. But.
Speaker:
00:15:53
But you know who he is.
Speaker:
00:15:55
Yeah, like, we we had both Vin and Chick Hearn in L.A..
Speaker:
00:15:58
We had kind of the best of of sports.
Speaker:
00:16:01
They weren't quite as drunk as Harry Carey, but, yeah,
Speaker:
00:16:05
we kind of had, like, two of the best voices in sports.
Speaker:
00:16:07
And so.
Speaker:
00:16:09
Anyways, thanks, Vin, for raising me through the summers,
Speaker:
00:16:12
and I'm going to go cry into my shirt now.
Speaker:
00:16:16
Yeah, I mean, I go back many, many years as Vin as a as a kid.
Speaker:
00:16:21
Uh, I remember we had a radio in our garage,
Speaker:
00:16:24
and I'd turn on the radio listening to Dodger games listening to Vin and,
Speaker:
00:16:28
uh, you know, do whatever I was doing in the driveway
Speaker:
00:16:31
and maybe be throwing a ball around or swing the bat or whatever.
Speaker:
00:16:34
But, I mean, from then up to I mean, for years and years and years,
Speaker:
00:16:38
I he, I mean, he did it for 67 years and,
Speaker:
00:16:41
and I mean, it was just the best.
Speaker:
00:16:43
I'm getting the opportunity now.
Speaker:
00:16:46
I watch a lot of different baseball games listening to different announcers.
Speaker:
00:16:49
And I was doing that last week and just about every game
Speaker:
00:16:52
that I listen to, every pass, every announcer
Speaker:
00:16:56
would you know, talk about Vin and how he helped their career. And
Speaker:
00:17:02
even the Padres announcer one of them,
Speaker:
00:17:04
he said, I wouldn't have a career who wasn't for Vin Scully, too.
Speaker:
00:17:07
That helped me out when I first got started.
Speaker:
00:17:09
And that's just the kind of guy he was.
Speaker:
00:17:11
And he's there'll never be another one like him.
Speaker:
00:17:14
And he, he was the best.
Speaker:
00:17:15
Yeah. And I'm a huge Niners fan.
Speaker:
00:17:17
And he called the the big play, right?
Speaker:
00:17:19
Montana passed it in at the end and got an touchdown.
Speaker:
00:17:23
And then I was go I mean, that was Vin, so.
Speaker:
00:17:24
Yeah, they're the big part of my life.
Speaker:
00:17:27
There is a while.
Speaker:
00:17:27
Yeah, he did football, he did golf, he did baseball.
Speaker:
00:17:30
And, you know, eventually he backed off from that.
Speaker:
00:17:33
Then every time he would back off it, the same reason the same reason
Speaker:
00:17:36
why he retired, he goes, I'm in an awesome family time.
Speaker:
00:17:40
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:17:40
R.I.P. Vin.
Speaker:
00:17:42
Yeah, we'll miss him, that's for sure. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:17:44
So you bring the mood down.
Speaker:
00:17:46
I mean,
Speaker:
00:17:47
we kind of in Milwaukee, we will eventually feel
Speaker:
00:17:50
the same way when Bob Euchre ends up leaving baseball for the world.
Speaker:
00:17:53
And cause that's, you know, Mr.
Speaker:
00:17:55
Baseball to us.
Speaker:
00:17:56
And he's been in the league playing and announcing for over 50 years.
Speaker:
00:18:01
So we kind of it's like a preemptive for us here
Speaker:
00:18:05
in Wisconsin to kind of get that, you know, unfortunate feeling.
Speaker:
00:18:09
So the line that really gets me from him is it's
Speaker:
00:18:12
not even from like a real baseball game.
Speaker:
00:18:14
It's from Major League.
Speaker:
00:18:16
You know, the, the Indians win it, the Indians win it.
Speaker:
00:18:20
Oh, my God, the Indians.
Speaker:
00:18:22
Win is so good the best.
Speaker:
00:18:25
I think every time you mention
Speaker:
00:18:27
Bob Iger, the first thing that comes to my mind is just a bit outside.
Speaker:
00:18:30
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:18:33
That is true.
Speaker:
00:18:35
Oh, all right.
Speaker:
00:18:36
Well, all right, well, we'll bring it up from here, I think.
Speaker:
00:18:38
I hope flex, we teased me in the show.
Speaker:
00:18:40
You got a black guy, and I'm hoping you painted your nails over the weekend.
Speaker:
00:18:44
What?
Speaker:
00:18:44
What the fuck happened to you and how drunk were you?
Speaker:
00:18:48
OK, so I did get pretty knackered.
Speaker:
00:18:51
Um, but we went to I grabbed a couple of buddies,
Speaker:
00:18:54
and we went to what is called sad summer fest.
Speaker:
00:18:57
OK, it is a tour that now goes on
Speaker:
00:19:01
because the Warped Tour doesn't
Speaker:
00:19:04
make sense, you know?
Speaker:
00:19:05
So like, the Warped Tour was, you know, all these emo screamo,
Speaker:
00:19:09
you know, punk rock bands.
Speaker:
00:19:10
And since that's not going on anymore, there's been this small
Speaker:
00:19:15
revolution, if you want to put it that way.
Speaker:
00:19:18
It started like two years ago, and there was like four bands that did it.
Speaker:
00:19:22
And now two years ago, there was like eight or nine bands that
Speaker:
00:19:27
participated in it.
Speaker:
00:19:29
So we're just not now.
Speaker:
00:19:30
I'm hoping next year two years from now that that doubles again and it gets bigger
Speaker:
00:19:34
and it'll be able to be held in like bigger venues
Speaker:
00:19:39
and just kind of bring back that whole Warped Tour atmosphere
Speaker:
00:19:42
that everybody, you know, knows and loves because that shit was just the best.
Speaker:
00:19:47
But alas, so I grabbed my buddies
Speaker:
00:19:50
and figured why not just get emo to dress
Speaker:
00:19:54
kind of goofy and by kind of goofy, I mean pretty fuckin goofy.
Speaker:
00:19:58
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:19:58
And we did by a couple of my buddies had the short shorts on.
Speaker:
00:20:04
Another buddy of mine dressed completely nineties.
Speaker:
00:20:06
I was, you know, looked like an idiot myself
Speaker:
00:20:10
and the main band I went to see is called Mayday Parade.
Speaker:
00:20:14
Oh, I've heard of them.
Speaker:
00:20:15
Yeah, they've been around since like 2011 or 12 or something like that.
Speaker:
00:20:18
And just really, really big band for me the done a lot for me in my life and
Speaker:
00:20:25
I was,
Speaker:
00:20:25
you know, having a really good time dancing, moshing, crowd
Speaker:
00:20:28
surfing to their show and we get done with it.
Speaker:
00:20:31
They put on an awesome performance and we go outside
Speaker:
00:20:34
to kind of take a breather because it was probably like 120 degrees
Speaker:
00:20:38
in like where we were dancing.
Speaker:
00:20:41
Where is the studio right now? Yeah.
Speaker:
00:20:44
And we were talking with some people, some friends,
Speaker:
00:20:49
my buddies and this dude looks at me and he goes,
Speaker:
00:20:53
What happened to your eye?
Speaker:
00:20:55
And I was like, What are you talking about?
Speaker:
00:20:58
Because it looks like you got punched in the eye.
Speaker:
00:21:01
And I said, It doesn't, it didn't feel like I got punched in the eye.
Speaker:
00:21:04
My eye felt normal.
Speaker:
00:21:06
There is nothing wrong with my eye.
Speaker:
00:21:08
And then everybody else started peeking at my eye and they got you got
Speaker:
00:21:11
punched in the eye.
Speaker:
00:21:14
I was like, well, that's weird because it doesn't feel like it.
Speaker:
00:21:17
I don't notice it. Nothing.
Speaker:
00:21:18
Nothing is different.
Speaker:
00:21:20
You guys are full of shit.
Speaker:
00:21:21
You're full of shit.
Speaker:
00:21:23
So even pulled out my phone, I'm like trying to look at my camera
Speaker:
00:21:25
and I'm like, Oh, it looks, I don't know, maybe a little tinted, but nothing bad.
Speaker:
00:21:30
And then we went to the second last band playing.
Speaker:
00:21:35
We went in there mosh pit, and in during the second song,
Speaker:
00:21:40
I got hit in the exact same spot where I got a phantom hit.
Speaker:
00:21:45
And let me tell you, I noticed that big time,
Speaker:
00:21:50
but again, it hurt initially,
Speaker:
00:21:52
and then it didn't really hurt until after the show.
Speaker:
00:21:55
We're driving home and I'm just like, Oh, my God, my fucking eye hurts.
Speaker:
00:22:01
So I get home, get some water, get some ice on my eye.
Speaker:
00:22:06
And again, I'm looking in the mirror, it looks OK.
Speaker:
00:22:10
And then I woke up 4 hours later and it was completely fucking black.
Speaker:
00:22:14
It's like the first black I've ever gotten in my life and really yeah.
Speaker:
00:22:18
And I don't even know how it actually happened.
Speaker:
00:22:22
That's.
Speaker:
00:22:22
What did your wife say?
Speaker:
00:22:24
That's all I want to know.
Speaker:
00:22:26
Do you want me to do it?
Speaker:
00:22:27
And like the voice that I imitate my wife in.
Speaker:
00:22:30
Yes, please.
Speaker:
00:22:35
You're what?
Speaker:
00:22:37
Do you do it? You're a 34 year old dad.
Speaker:
00:22:39
What do you what do you do?
Speaker:
00:22:40
It must be the crowd servant.
Speaker:
00:22:42
You need to act like a normal human being.
Speaker:
00:22:47
That's what I was hoping for, basically.
Speaker:
00:22:48
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker:
00:22:49
That was yeah. In a nutshell, that's what it was.
Speaker:
00:22:52
I expected your wife to say something like, Now call me that again or something.
Speaker:
00:22:57
I was over.
Speaker:
00:22:58
I was hoping she would think it was, like, hot and tough.
Speaker:
00:23:00
You know, it's like, oh, I'll tell you what.
Speaker:
00:23:02
I can't fix or build anything you know?
Speaker:
00:23:06
I'm not like that kind of man. Sure.
Speaker:
00:23:08
But it's like I can, you know, throw down in a mosh pit and I can stop.
Speaker:
00:23:13
And but as.
Speaker:
00:23:14
Americans yeah, you know what I'm saying?
Speaker:
00:23:15
Like, I can me like, I can do some other manly shit and be kind of tough and.
Speaker:
00:23:20
Yeah, you know, I got the.
Speaker:
00:23:22
Complete opposite.
Speaker:
00:23:23
Reaction.
Speaker:
00:23:24
If only you could have convinced her that somebody called her a name or something.
Speaker:
00:23:27
And you're fighting for her honor.
Speaker:
00:23:29
For her honor.
Speaker:
00:23:31
She I have no white knight.
Speaker:
00:23:34
Well.
Speaker:
00:23:34
I love how you were hoping
Speaker:
00:23:36
that she would think you were, like, some sexy beast
Speaker:
00:23:38
who got in a fight when you don't even know how you fucking got it.
Speaker:
00:23:41
No, I have no idea. Right.
Speaker:
00:23:43
So you know what's sexy about that?
Speaker:
00:23:45
You should have been like, oh, this guy came up and blah, blah, blah.
Speaker:
00:23:48
I don't know if.
Speaker:
00:23:50
Maybe, just maybe just the look of it is what looks tough.
Speaker:
00:23:53
It's like oh, he's.
Speaker:
00:23:54
He's got a black guy. That's tough.
Speaker:
00:23:57
Yeah. Oh, man, don't fuck with that guy.
Speaker:
00:23:59
Yeah, that's like. That's like measuring dicks.
Speaker:
00:24:01
Only guys actually care about that. Yeah, that's true.
Speaker:
00:24:04
Yeah, it's important.
Speaker:
00:24:05
Like, we we hope and think women care that they don't just like.
Speaker:
00:24:08
Yeah, you don't care about your fucking black guy.
Speaker:
00:24:10
You're an idiot, Dad.
Speaker:
00:24:11
Who should act like a normal human?
Speaker:
00:24:14
So the problem is, too, it's not even like a tough looking black guy.
Speaker:
00:24:17
It's like a pretty black guy.
Speaker:
00:24:18
We're like, you look at me, and it actually looks like I'm wearing makeup.
Speaker:
00:24:22
Yeah, well, you're pretty, so it's.
Speaker:
00:24:23
Oh, my gosh. Well, thank you so much.
Speaker:
00:24:26
It's like when Shawn Michaels gets a black guy, you know, the Heartbreak Kid.
Speaker:
00:24:28
It just.
Speaker:
00:24:29
It's so pretty.
Speaker:
00:24:30
He's. He's for the heartbreak. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:24:32
Or he used to be.
Speaker:
00:24:33
Now he's weird and bald and doesn't make sense.
Speaker:
00:24:35
And now he's got the money.
Speaker:
00:24:35
He's got the monkey.
Speaker:
00:24:36
But yeah.
Speaker:
00:24:37
Yeah, the monkey boy.
Speaker:
00:24:40
Show which way he's looking anymore.
Speaker:
00:24:42
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker:
00:24:44
That fool got real cross-eyed
Speaker:
00:24:47
undertaker not only ended his career, but also ended his normal eyesight,
Speaker:
00:24:51
ended his peripheral vision.
Speaker:
00:24:53
So did you paint your nails? Oh, the nails.
Speaker:
00:24:56
I never painted my nails.
Speaker:
00:24:57
Oh, not even my nails for of.
Speaker:
00:25:00
Not even when I used to be super emo.
Speaker:
00:25:02
Oh. That's too bad.
Speaker:
00:25:03
I got a lot of compliments on mine at emo fest.
Speaker:
00:25:06
Well, then you must have done a really great job.
Speaker:
00:25:09
The wife did a great. Job, which was always.
Speaker:
00:25:11
It was super weird.
Speaker:
00:25:12
She's like, All right, well, I'll paint them now. I'm like, this is.
Speaker:
00:25:15
This is not something that I ever want to hear you say ever again.
Speaker:
00:25:19
Unless she liked it.
Speaker:
00:25:21
Well, here, I shouldn't even share.
Speaker:
00:25:24
This is the most embarrassing part.
Speaker:
00:25:25
She did it and then, like, one of the colors she used
Speaker:
00:25:28
was, like, old and, like, didn't stick well or whatever.
Speaker:
00:25:30
And so I woke up the next is the night before I got the next one,
Speaker:
00:25:32
I was like, fuck, this one's all jacked up.
Speaker:
00:25:34
So I got the apology and I fixed it.
Speaker:
00:25:37
I was like, wow, it looks even better now that I've fixed it.
Speaker:
00:25:39
Then when she did it, like, this is not something I'm proud of.
Speaker:
00:25:43
All right.
Speaker:
00:25:45
So anyhow, all right, let's
Speaker:
00:25:48
let's answer what's probably the most important question
Speaker:
00:25:51
of the night.
Speaker:
00:26:13
What is. It.
Speaker:
00:26:17
Well, I will let the people wait no further.
Speaker:
00:26:20
Today I
Speaker:
00:26:21
am drinking because I got completely sucked into this.
Speaker:
00:26:24
Cannot
Speaker:
00:26:26
Goon Platoon by director brewing company.
Speaker:
00:26:30
It is a double IPA and it is brewed with
Speaker:
00:26:35
Citra Belmont and NH, Z100 seven hops.
Speaker:
00:26:40
It has a nine all right.
Speaker:
00:26:42
It has 4.13 collective on untapped
Speaker:
00:26:46
not a ton of check ins, but enough for a decent score.
Speaker:
00:26:50
And it reads Goon Platoon is brewed with oats and loaded up
Speaker:
00:26:53
with Sicher Belmont and an HD one on seven hops for a super
Speaker:
00:26:58
balanced flavor with notes of kiwi guava and strawberry candy. Mm.
Speaker:
00:27:03
As we sniff this bad boy
Speaker:
00:27:08
definitely get tons of strawberry.
Speaker:
00:27:11
I love Belmont Hops because of the strawberry.
Speaker:
00:27:15
The heavy strawberry notes that it carries.
Speaker:
00:27:16
And I don't know if it is just a rare hop or an expensive hop, but it is.
Speaker:
00:27:21
It's used sparingly.
Speaker:
00:27:24
And every time I see a beer with it, I really, really enjoy it.
Speaker:
00:27:28
Like, especially when Mr.
Speaker:
00:27:30
Arbitrary Notes come out so we, you know, warm up the old tongue jobber here.
Speaker:
00:27:34
Oh, this is how we get all the listens, my rewards of that tongue jabber.
Speaker:
00:27:39
And again, it's it's a director,
Speaker:
00:27:42
so it's got that great soft mouthfeel carbonation is
Speaker:
00:27:46
low, but it's there. And
Speaker:
00:27:50
again, you get
Speaker:
00:27:51
I don't taste any Kiwi at all, but it's heavy strawberry a little bit of the guava
Speaker:
00:27:57
super, super touch of bitterness on the end.
Speaker:
00:28:01
8% obvs is super good
Speaker:
00:28:04
beer 1999 for four pack. My.
Speaker:
00:28:08
8% but the canard I showed
Speaker:
00:28:11
you is just ridiculous.
Speaker:
00:28:15
So I feel like you're hitting on two of the three.
Speaker:
00:28:17
Definitely hitting on to Hillary and the fact
Speaker:
00:28:22
that it tastes so good which you don't know before you buy it.
Speaker:
00:28:26
I really lucked out with that.
Speaker:
00:28:28
So I would say this this beer is flex approved it's not 100%
Speaker:
00:28:34
fitting the algorithm, but it is 100% flex approved
Speaker:
00:28:37
plus it's got some gnarly lacing going on here.
Speaker:
00:28:40
You got you love that sexy.
Speaker:
00:28:42
You know I love the circulation.
Speaker:
00:28:44
I know that Drecker got pretty hype for a while,
Speaker:
00:28:46
but if there's one thing you can say about Drecker is, you know,
Speaker:
00:28:50
like especially with their faces, like the quality's always coming through.
Speaker:
00:28:53
Like I've never had a bad hazy from Drecker.
Speaker:
00:28:57
I've had one.
Speaker:
00:28:58
Oh, OK. Well, I stand corrected, but not.
Speaker:
00:29:01
Everybody.
Speaker:
00:29:01
I mean one I mean one beer out of
Speaker:
00:29:05
however many they've been brewing.
Speaker:
00:29:07
Right.
Speaker:
00:29:08
You know, and they drop anywhere from four to seven a week.
Speaker:
00:29:12
Yeah. They're always dropping. Shit. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:29:14
So, I mean, with the amount of production that they do and the stuff
Speaker:
00:29:17
that they send out, I would say if you get one bad beer, it's
Speaker:
00:29:21
you're doing a pretty damn good job.
Speaker:
00:29:23
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:29:24
You know, I've had one of their one or two of their sours not travel
Speaker:
00:29:27
so well, but I've never seen anything bad from their, their hoppy selections.
Speaker:
00:29:31
So cheers to Director super consistent,
Speaker:
00:29:35
that is for sure.
Speaker:
00:29:37
All right.
Speaker:
00:29:37
Maui Brewing, you know, they were the runners
Speaker:
00:29:40
up in the purchase of modern times and they have officially said.
Speaker:
00:29:45
Yeah. We'll buy it.
Speaker:
00:29:47
So Maui is going to be taking over modern times.
Speaker:
00:29:51
They expect the deal to close in late October.
Speaker:
00:29:55
And then from there, they'll start rolling shit out.
Speaker:
00:29:59
They're not going to immediately bring production over, but
Speaker:
00:30:02
it's only a matter of time before they start producing Maui stuff stateside.
Speaker:
00:30:06
I don't know if I read or heard this right,
Speaker:
00:30:07
but then they have to, like, up their offer like quite a bit
Speaker:
00:30:11
to to get modern times to agree.
Speaker:
00:30:14
Oh, I didn't read that. I.
Speaker:
00:30:16
I, maybe I read it wrong, but what I thought I read was
Speaker:
00:30:20
that they almost had to double their offer to where I'm thinking why, but.
Speaker:
00:30:25
Well, I, well, I don't remember that.
Speaker:
00:30:28
So before the auction started, Maui
Speaker:
00:30:31
was the first one to say, well, take modern times.
Speaker:
00:30:34
And they put in a bid of I don't remember how much money.
Speaker:
00:30:38
And then the bidding actually start like you needed.
Speaker:
00:30:41
That was like a, you know, like a formality, like that needed to happen.
Speaker:
00:30:43
Somebody needed to basically do a starting bid.
Speaker:
00:30:47
So then the actual bid day came and Maui bid
Speaker:
00:30:51
and they were the second highest behind Brewery Brewery X one.
Speaker:
00:30:56
And then I'm pretty sure it was all for publicity because then they backed out.
Speaker:
00:31:00
Super weird.
Speaker:
00:31:01
And so then they went back to Maui.
Speaker:
00:31:04
I didn't read anywhere that they had to up it from that.
Speaker:
00:31:06
Maybe they upped it from their original I'm throwing my hat in the ring bid
Speaker:
00:31:11
could be.
Speaker:
00:31:12
And maybe my sources are.
Speaker:
00:31:14
I may have to kill them. I don't know.
Speaker:
00:31:17
I mean, if they're wrong, that just feels like the right thing to do.
Speaker:
00:31:20
You have no choice.
Speaker:
00:31:22
Zero choice. Right?
Speaker:
00:31:25
You fool me once, you're fucking dead.
Speaker:
00:31:27
That's right.
Speaker:
00:31:27
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:31:28
That's how the saying goes, right?
Speaker:
00:31:31
Now, that's.
Speaker:
00:31:32
A. Motto
Speaker:
00:31:35
this should. Be a t. Shirt.
Speaker:
00:31:36
Only once you're fucking dead.
Speaker:
00:31:38
Modern modern times would have never had a problem
Speaker:
00:31:40
if they would have served real meat anyway.
Speaker:
00:31:43
So wait for that I.
Speaker:
00:31:46
Just think if that cowboy burger had a cow in it, then a.
Speaker:
00:31:50
Cowboy burger, my. Ass. Yeah. Yeah, that's.
Speaker:
00:31:53
That was their first mistake. Cause they pissed me off. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:31:56
And they went downhill after that.
Speaker:
00:31:58
Oh, well, like, stone cold always says it's better to be pissed off
Speaker:
00:32:01
than pissed on.
Speaker:
00:32:02
Here you go. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:32:03
So yeah, if that cowboy burger had a little cow in it, maybe.
Speaker:
00:32:07
It. Lasted a little longer and.
Speaker:
00:32:10
Oh, get off
Speaker:
00:32:11
your ironic high horse and stop the vegan bullshit.
Speaker:
00:32:15
OK, anyways, don't get me started.
Speaker:
00:32:18
And then in more legal chit breweries, a judge has affirmed
Speaker:
00:32:22
the $56 million jury verdict for stone brewing against Molson Coors.
Speaker:
00:32:28
Wolzinger has tried to obviously get that thrown out.
Speaker:
00:32:30
Judge says no.
Speaker:
00:32:32
In fact, he said
Speaker:
00:32:35
nice and he's he's affirming the 56th.
Speaker:
00:32:39
We had a whole like half of episode where we didn't put any like selling
Speaker:
00:32:42
cold drops or jokes or anything and now here here they just come flowing out you.
Speaker:
00:32:45
Know that was supernatural too. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:32:47
Oh thanks
Speaker:
00:32:50
supernatural just like you're minus monastery.
Speaker:
00:32:53
And then speaking of stone
Speaker:
00:32:56
and Molson Coors, a judge has denied stones attempt to gain
Speaker:
00:33:01
profits and damages as well as attorney fees from Molson cause
Speaker:
00:33:06
they wanted to get an additional $116 million out of Molson Coors.
Speaker:
00:33:11
Wow. Yeah. And the judge said.
Speaker:
00:33:14
And so
Speaker:
00:33:16
they said what?
Speaker:
00:33:18
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:33:19
We want 116. What?
Speaker:
00:33:22
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:33:23
I said 116.
Speaker:
00:33:24
What you hard of hearing
Speaker:
00:33:28
so they're stuck with their their little $56 million suit.
Speaker:
00:33:32
They're
Speaker:
00:33:34
the hop growers union of the Czech Republic.
Speaker:
00:33:37
I didn't knows the thing has named Firestone Walker brewmaster Matt Brindle
Speaker:
00:33:41
said a night of the order of the hop which is apparently is
Speaker:
00:33:46
an honor that is bestowed upon global beer industry luminaries.
Speaker:
00:33:49
OK I want this fucking honorary oh yeah.
Speaker:
00:33:53
Is there a patch I can buy that I can put on a jacket or something.
Speaker:
00:33:56
It's a real fucking thing.
Speaker:
00:33:58
Knight of the Order of the Hop.
Speaker:
00:34:00
Jesus Christ.
Speaker:
00:34:01
What higher honor is there than that?
Speaker:
00:34:03
Yeah. You know what?
Speaker:
00:34:04
Is there a description about?
Speaker:
00:34:06
Like what that is. Dude?
Speaker:
00:34:08
First of all, a knight or the order of the hop needs no description.
Speaker:
00:34:12
Fair enough. How dare you?
Speaker:
00:34:14
How do you question the night of the order?
Speaker:
00:34:16
The hop also England.
Speaker:
00:34:18
You can suck it with your whole knighthood thing.
Speaker:
00:34:20
This is like 18 times better.
Speaker:
00:34:24
It's actual.
Speaker:
00:34:25
Royalty. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:34:28
Imagine this guy going to England and running into it
Speaker:
00:34:31
with the Knights in England, and he's like, Fuck you, dude, I'm
Speaker:
00:34:34
this big hop, you know, then you need or hop.
Speaker:
00:34:38
He walks up to the castle and like, Who do you think you are?
Speaker:
00:34:42
No, no, no, no, no. No.
Speaker:
00:34:44
Who do you think you are? Is burns it down?
Speaker:
00:34:47
Yeah. Burn it. Sorry.
Speaker:
00:34:50
And in an attempt to completely piss off flex
Speaker:
00:34:53
I thought I'd announce that Goose Island has announced their 2020 to Bourbon
Speaker:
00:34:57
County style lineup just ahead of their big 30th anniversary.
Speaker:
00:35:01
You know, I'd seen this on the rundown and it made me grin
Speaker:
00:35:05
a little bit because, you know, I knew you put it in just to piss me off.
Speaker:
00:35:10
I did?
Speaker:
00:35:10
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:35:11
Because, hey, Goose Island but you.
Speaker:
00:35:14
Where's the Mountain Dew Iced Tea?
Speaker:
00:35:16
Beer? Yeah, like a.
Speaker:
00:35:19
Where's your dog shit version of.
Speaker:
00:35:21
Oh, that's all of them. Oh.
Speaker:
00:35:26
Well, fun fact, Matt.
Speaker:
00:35:27
Brendan, who is now a night of the order of the hop, started at Goose Island.
Speaker:
00:35:32
Before they were big beer.
Speaker:
00:35:34
Well, and look at it now.
Speaker:
00:35:36
Mm. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:35:37
Now is a night of the order of the hops.
Speaker:
00:35:39
Yeah. Suck it, England.
Speaker:
00:35:41
They should do a documentary on you.
Speaker:
00:35:43
Get Goose Island. Dishes in the ass.
Speaker:
00:35:45
I'll get Goose Island.
Speaker:
00:35:46
We'll end it on the story that Vanessa sent to us
Speaker:
00:35:49
that this is just, you know, this is Florida in a nutshell.
Speaker:
00:35:54
Florida man arrested for DUI inside a Wal-Mart.
Speaker:
00:35:59
A Florida man was arrested Sunday after he allegedly drove
Speaker:
00:36:02
a motorized scooter and crashed into the shelves of a Wal-Mart store
Speaker:
00:36:07
while drunk in Melbourne City, southeast of Orlando.
Speaker:
00:36:11
The 39 year old, whose name has not been disclosed, was driving a Walmart
Speaker:
00:36:14
scooter with his open backpack sitting in the basket
Speaker:
00:36:17
in which an open bottle of Smirnoff Vodka was spotted.
Speaker:
00:36:20
Gross. No I know.
Speaker:
00:36:23
Could you. Step it up just a smidge. Please?
Speaker:
00:36:26
Oh, sorry.
Speaker:
00:36:26
It's Florida.
Speaker:
00:36:27
Florida. It's very.
Speaker:
00:36:29
Classy. Is it gets in Florida.
Speaker:
00:36:31
That is extremely classy.
Speaker:
00:36:33
Melbourne police said that the offender had been swaying in the scooter
Speaker:
00:36:37
and hitting shells and almost ran over other customers in the aisles.
Speaker:
00:36:41
He was described by authorities as having
Speaker:
00:36:44
glassy eyes and smelled like alcohol.
Speaker:
00:36:48
He is said to be unresponsive when asked to show his ID
Speaker:
00:36:51
and had to be carried to patrol the vehicle on a stretcher.
Speaker:
00:36:54
Oh gee, she is.
Speaker:
00:36:57
Later, the scooter driver refused a breathalyzer test winning custody.
Speaker:
00:37:01
Homie, I think you're past that point. Yes.
Speaker:
00:37:04
Well, you know what, though?
Speaker:
00:37:05
Like the the man, the myth, the legend said, man, don't trust anybody.
Speaker:
00:37:09
You're right. That is true. You go.
Speaker:
00:37:12
He was locked up in the Brevard County jail on charges of driving
Speaker:
00:37:16
under the influence, disorderly intoxication, refusal
Speaker:
00:37:20
with prior citation and possession of an open and shitty container.
Speaker:
00:37:26
So thanks, Florida, keeping it classy.
Speaker:
00:37:29
Is this true that I heard.
Speaker:
00:37:31
That they Florida? Yeah, no kidding.
Speaker:
00:37:34
Once you became a permanent resident of Florida, you get a scooter?
Speaker:
00:37:38
I think so.
Speaker:
00:37:38
I think issues yeah, it's
Speaker:
00:37:39
a state issued scooter that they give you when you become a permanent resident.
Speaker:
00:37:43
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:37:43
They even ask you, they just automatically put the handicapped placard on the back.
Speaker:
00:37:46
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker:
00:37:48
It's a scooter.
Speaker:
00:37:49
You get a gator and a hand grenade. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:37:52
Oh, yeah. The hand grenade. Yeah, that's.
Speaker:
00:37:53
That's the Florida package. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker:
00:37:57
Welcome to Florida.
Speaker:
00:37:58
The Florida special. Welcome to Florida.
Speaker:
00:38:01
Your official.
Speaker:
00:38:02
Yeah, it sounds like a horrible drink.
Speaker:
00:38:03
By the way, the Florida Special.
Speaker:
00:38:07
No, thanks.
Speaker:
00:38:08
Sounds like a lot of sweat and a glass that's sort of.
Speaker:
00:38:12

Speaker:
00:38:13
Lot. A lot of sweat.
Speaker:
00:38:14
And somehow firearms and yeah.
Speaker:
00:38:17
And wild animals.
Speaker:
00:38:17
That's Smirnoff Vodka. Oof! No, thanks.
Speaker:
00:38:21
Pass vodka makes the room spin, and Smirnoff Vodka just doubles it.
Speaker:
00:38:27
Just makes you puke.
Speaker:
00:38:28
That's what I'm saying.
Speaker:
00:38:29
And makes makes my bedroom spin.
Speaker:
00:38:31
And then puking out on milk.
Speaker:
00:38:34
He's got our back.

Turn kind of muddy at the end there. Man.
Speaker:
00:38:40

00:38:44
This got going be.
Speaker:

All right, I'm gonna hit some music here.

I tell everybody to go find us on the socials.
Speaker:
00:38:59
Flex me beer underscores in between on the ground there.
Speaker:
00:39:03
Craft beer republic, no underscores or anything like that.
Speaker:
00:39:07
You find Scott on Twitter unfiltered.
Speaker:
00:39:09
Scott, I think that is everything.
Speaker:
00:39:12
80553 beer is the number to call.
Speaker:
00:39:15
Look, I hope everyone is doing very well hydrated.
Speaker:
00:39:19
And on that note. Goodnight, everybody.
00:00:00
Finally the Scott
Speaker:
00:00:03
has come back to craft beer.
Speaker:
00:00:07
He's got up here. OK.
Speaker:
00:00:09
You're fine. OK,

I'm being joined by the sexiest injury in all of the Midwest.

00:00:33
And that's Flex Me a black guy.
Speaker:
00:00:35
That's what's happening, bud.
Speaker:
00:00:37
Emote up a little too hard this past weekend.
Speaker:
00:00:40
Oh, any tears shed?
Speaker:
00:00:42
No tears shed.
Speaker:
00:00:43
Just a really pretty shiner. Nice.
Speaker:
00:00:46
Well, we'll talk about that in a couple of you.
Speaker:
00:00:48
I want to also ask you if you painted your nails.
Speaker:
00:00:50
Don't answer just yet.
Speaker:
00:00:52
I'm hoping. I'm hoping you did.
Speaker:
00:00:55
And then join us for the first time in a long time

What's happenin? What? You know, voice.
Speaker:
00:01:13

It's it's kind of like the song Elton John sings.
Speaker:
00:01:20
The bitch is back. OK.
Speaker:
00:01:24
Look, as they wrapped up like a douche, but that works.

Speaker:
00:01:33
Was for everyone that's angry on Twitter, by the way.
Speaker:
00:01:35
I know that it's revved up like a deuce.
Speaker:
00:01:37
And also,
Speaker:
00:01:38
I know that's not an Elton John song, so please don't add me for that one.
Speaker:
00:01:42
Yeah, Flex is looking a little flabby these days and could really use some tips
Speaker:
00:01:46
from someone who really just pour is on the iron over there.
Speaker:
00:01:51
Oh, man.
Speaker:
00:01:52
Yeah, this couldn't work out better for me. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:01:55
This is great.
Speaker:
00:01:56
Your wife's going to be so excited. Like,
Speaker:
00:01:59
she's like, it's about goddamn time.
Speaker:
00:02:01
Scott, come back.
Speaker:
00:02:02
Oh, gosh.
Speaker:
00:02:03
Anyways, like I said, thanks for drink and thanks for join in.
Speaker:
00:02:06
Follow us on the socials.
Speaker:
00:02:08
Flex me beer underscores in between.
Speaker:
00:02:10
And of course, Craft Beer Republic
Speaker:
00:02:13
I'm trying to do this whole real thing.
Speaker:
00:02:15
Fuckin Instagram and their goddamn damn.
Speaker:
00:02:17
And I'm trying to play somewhat nice, but I just hate them.
Speaker:
00:02:20
So suck on Instagram.
Speaker:
00:02:23
Sorry. That's.
Speaker:
00:02:24
That's the algorithms and everything.
Speaker:
00:02:26
It's just. It's all.
Speaker:
00:02:27
Yeah, I got this thing in days is like, you can no longer post videos.
Speaker:
00:02:31
They have to be real. And I'm like, first of all, really?
Speaker:
00:02:33
What's the difference?
Speaker:
00:02:34
But second, yeah, it's like, second of all, fuck off Instagram.
Speaker:
00:02:37
So we'll see. Maybe I'll join Ticktock or it's like.
Speaker:
00:02:40
The only thing that makes sense anymore is that nothing makes sense.
Speaker:
00:02:44
That is true.
Speaker:
00:02:45
So it's OK. Scott still in my space.
Speaker:
00:02:47
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:02:47
I was thinking about downloading Instagram, but not now.
Speaker:
00:02:50
You're right.
Speaker:
00:02:52
This sounds. A waste of. Typing.
Speaker:
00:02:53
It is like. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:02:54
I they wait.
Speaker:
00:02:56
I can't add a profile song to this.
Speaker:
00:03:00
Where's my top.
Speaker:
00:03:01
Eight
Speaker:
00:03:04
love?
Speaker:
00:03:04
Everybody. Like, where do I check the bulletin?
Speaker:
00:03:06
Where is the bulletin?
Speaker:
00:03:07
I need to find the surveys.
Speaker:
00:03:09
I like how everyone was like, Hey, I'm going to just shout it out to the world.
Speaker:
00:03:13
Who I do and don't like of my actual friends.
Speaker:
00:03:16
Here's the top eight people that I, I do like.
Speaker:
00:03:19
Yeah, that was always a big thing to me.
Speaker:
00:03:21
Like, the top was the top six or top eight.
Speaker:
00:03:23
Because either way, it was like, okay, it's like, I like you.
Speaker:
00:03:26
I mean, you always felt like the girl you're dating at the time is number one,
Speaker:
00:03:29
always on that.
Speaker:
00:03:30
It was like, you know, whoever, because who cares?
Speaker:
00:03:33
After that.
Speaker:
00:03:34
Then do you just console people say, well, you were number nine,
Speaker:
00:03:37
you almost made it.
Speaker:
00:03:38
Yeah, MR.
Speaker:
00:03:39
You just you're right there. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:03:43
If it wasn't for that bud light you brought to the party last week.
Speaker:
00:03:45
Yeah. You know, sneaked up to number eight.
Speaker:
00:03:47
Keep trying.
Speaker:
00:03:48
But if.
Speaker:
00:03:49
Somebody dies, you're in. The.
Speaker:
00:03:52
Past don't go. Don't go killing anybody.
Speaker:
00:03:54
But yeah.
Speaker:
00:03:56
It's not worth this.
Speaker:
00:03:57
It's not worth the top eight.
Speaker:
00:03:59
Yeah, that's for sure.
Speaker:
00:04:00
Well, the things we remember.
Speaker:
00:04:02
Thanks, MySpace. Is MySpace still does it exist?
Speaker:
00:04:04
I know.
Speaker:
00:04:04
Was like a band. Hi, Tom Lee.
Speaker:
00:04:06
I don't exactly.
Speaker:
00:04:09
So weird.
Speaker:
00:04:11
Anyways, all right. Lots to get to today.
Speaker:
00:04:14
Some interesting news in the beer world.
Speaker:
00:04:16
The modern time saga is still going, as is the Stone Saga.
Speaker:
00:04:19
Big award for Matt Brandel sent over at Firestone Thanks to Vanessa.
Speaker:
00:04:24
We'll get it out early. Hi, Vanessa.
Speaker:
00:04:26
Oh, hey, Vanessa. Hey, Vanessa.
Speaker:
00:04:28
She sent us in a news story about a Florida man being arrested
Speaker:
00:04:32
inside inside of a Wal-Mart.
Speaker:
00:04:34
What's what's more harmonious than Florida man?
Speaker:
00:04:37
And Wal-Mart, they just go hand in hand.
Speaker:
00:04:40
So we'll get to that.
Speaker:
00:04:41
But right now, it is time to kick off the celebration.
Speaker:
00:04:45
This is batch three. 16.
Speaker:
00:04:47
There's only one beer that we can be drinking on batch three. 16
Speaker:
00:05:08
oh, right.
Speaker:
00:05:09
We've had this on the show before. Back on 172.
Speaker:
00:05:12
But for batch three, six teen, we had to crack open
Speaker:
00:05:17
not only a cantaloupe ass, but El Segundo Bruins Broken Skull IPA
Speaker:
00:05:21
6.7% has 67 abuse
Speaker:
00:05:25
and this is kind of cool the untapped and beer advocates scores have not changed
Speaker:
00:05:30
since we had it on 172 in October of 2019 3.8 and untapped 88.
Speaker:
00:05:35
I'll be your advocate real quick they say broken skull IPA a bad ass 6.7%
Speaker:
00:05:40
India pale ale designed by Steve Austin and El Segundo Brewing Company
Speaker:
00:05:44
for the working man and woman.
Speaker:
00:05:45
It features Citra Cascade
Speaker:
00:05:47
and Chinook Hops to deliver a big flavor with an easy finish.
Speaker:
00:05:51
Now stop reading and start enjoying this awesome beer.
Speaker:
00:05:53
Cheers Steve I assume that's Steve Austin
Speaker:
00:05:58
I can I can say we've had it before.
Speaker:
00:06:00
I think I had a case of these at WrestleMania
Speaker:
00:06:02
this year for obvious reasons, and it is just a classic old school
Speaker:
00:06:08
IPA a lot of Westie going on reigns me,
Speaker:
00:06:11
a lot of Torpedo IPA from Sierra Nevada, just real dank and bitter
Speaker:
00:06:17
and but balanced it's not like uh, you know, quite to teeth
Speaker:
00:06:21
shattering balance, but lot of a lot of pine in this one.
Speaker:
00:06:24
Yeah, it's a good piney beer and I know Steve because we're good friends.
Speaker:
00:06:29
He, he kind of it's he likes this here in Nevada
Speaker:
00:06:33
and I think he may have, you know, said, hey, I'll take this and maybe just,
Speaker:
00:06:36
you know, tweak it a little bit, make it a little bit better.
Speaker:
00:06:39
But yeah, it's just a good basic IPA.
Speaker:
00:06:43
Yeah, it's, it's a working man's IPA.
Speaker:
00:06:45
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:06:46
Well, I could drink it one or two or three or four cases of those.
Speaker:
00:06:51
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:06:52
What was it? The promise of a beer. What?
Speaker:
00:06:55
Another beer. What? Another beer? Well, a fourth beer.
Speaker:
00:06:57
A shot of tequila.
Speaker:
00:06:59
What would you drink? Yeah.
Speaker:
00:07:01
I mean, if you like IPAs, this is a good beer to buy.
Speaker:
00:07:04
It's a damn good beer. And that's all I got to say about that.
Speaker:
00:07:08
Well.
Speaker:
00:07:09
They're then well played and the price point is pretty gnarly.
Speaker:
00:07:13
You know, it does kind of fall in the, the algorithm it's
Speaker:
00:07:17
perfect for the algorithm.
Speaker:
00:07:19
Is I don't remember how much it cost.
Speaker:
00:07:22
The here it's like something like 1299.
Speaker:
00:07:26
For four pack that's not bad.
Speaker:
00:07:27
Oh it's not bad at all.
Speaker:
00:07:29
The American lottery. Is like. 999.
Speaker:
00:07:32
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:07:32
You know I'll say I wasn't
Speaker:
00:07:33
expecting much of that lager, but it's pretty pretty good Bri.
Speaker:
00:07:37
Not bad. Had a few of those at WrestleMania two.
Speaker:
00:07:39
Yeah. It's not bad at all.
Speaker:
00:07:42
Go, go, go out and get those.
Speaker:
00:07:44
Yeah. I have to apologize.
Speaker:
00:07:45
I didn't think folks had access to these in Milwaukee and I didn't tell them
Speaker:
00:07:49
that the plan as of like 12 hours ago was to have this on the show for 316
Speaker:
00:07:54
and then.
Speaker:
00:07:54
Fine, I'm fine. It's fine. I know everything's fine. I'm fine.
Speaker:
00:07:57
All right.
Speaker:
00:07:58
Yeah, the suicide hotline number is one 800.
Speaker:
00:08:02
So. I'm sorry, Flex.
Speaker:
00:08:04
I didn't know you guys had no like a dick.
Speaker:
00:08:06
And anyways, it's true, you are being so.
Speaker:
00:08:09
I know.
Speaker:
00:08:11
It's a funny thing about the algorithm, right?
Speaker:
00:08:14
So I got a another buddy listening to the show now,
Speaker:
00:08:17
and he's now kind of diving into the craft scene.
Speaker:
00:08:21
Oh, good.
Speaker:
00:08:21
No, just.
Speaker:
00:08:22
Just mildly.
Speaker:
00:08:23
And his name's Dustin and.
Speaker:
00:08:26
Hi, Dustin, because he's going to listen to this show.
Speaker:
00:08:28
Dusty.
Speaker:
00:08:29
You came over a couple of nights ago to play cribbage,
Speaker:
00:08:32
which I don't think anybody outside the Midwest knows so.
Speaker:
00:08:35
No, under the age of 70.
Speaker:
00:08:37
Yeah, don't even ask me.
Speaker:
00:08:39
And I was telling him about this
Speaker:
00:08:41
beer.
Speaker:
00:08:42
I was drinking, and he brought up the algorithm out of nowhere,
Speaker:
00:08:46
and I'm just like, Shut up, please.
Speaker:
00:08:49
I'm listening to the show.
Speaker:
00:08:53
They're having Reese.
Speaker:
00:08:54
I think it was Deb.
Speaker:
00:08:56
I forget who I think it was.
Speaker:
00:08:57
Deb, someone recently was like, Yeah, but it totally fit the algorithm.
Speaker:
00:09:00
I was like.
Speaker:
00:09:01
Oh. Like, just in casual conversation.
Speaker:
00:09:04
Like the algorithm. Yes.
Speaker:
00:09:06
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker:
00:09:06
It kind of hits you out of left field and somebody brings it up.
Speaker:
00:09:09
You're like, Wow, people actually listen to the algorithm.
Speaker:
00:09:12
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:09:13
I mean, it's fucking science.
Speaker:
00:09:16
Well, I am a scientist.
Speaker:
00:09:18
You are.
Speaker:
00:09:18
You flex for president.
Speaker:
00:09:21
Come on, let's let's make this happen.
Speaker:
00:09:23
A craft beer in every hand and algorithm in every.
Speaker:
00:09:26
Wow. Now, well, now that doesn't work.
Speaker:
00:09:29
Anyways, let's let's move on to
Speaker:
00:09:33
perfect.
Speaker:
00:09:34
Let's move on to more interesting conversation.
Speaker:
00:09:37
Uh, last weekend was, was the old birthday
Speaker:
00:09:40
and so we did a nice little brewery crawl out to Ventura, California.
Speaker:
00:09:45
We hit up a few in the Midwest.
Speaker:
00:09:47
We hit, of course, Agra, went to oh, Jesus.
Speaker:
00:09:52
I'm drawing a blank all of a sudden. Topa, topa.
Speaker:
00:09:55
Thank you.
Speaker:
00:09:56
And then we went to a brewery that I will
Speaker:
00:09:58
all leave off the list of names.
Speaker:
00:10:00
It was so bad we didn't finish our beers.
Speaker:
00:10:02
We, three of us got three different beers, and none of them were good.
Speaker:
00:10:06
Wow. That's good. Now, I'm curious.
Speaker:
00:10:09
I won't say their names.
Speaker:
00:10:10
I will say they've been on the show before.
Speaker:
00:10:12
Who? Yeesh.
Speaker:
00:10:14
The locals. Oh, no. No.
Speaker:
00:10:17
It was rough.
Speaker:
00:10:18
And here's this brought up a question.
Speaker:
00:10:20
One of the beer tenders walked by.
Speaker:
00:10:23
We had just gotten our beers taken like two sips,
Speaker:
00:10:25
and maybe she goes, Uh, hey, you know, how's how's the beer?
Speaker:
00:10:27
You know, it being a good beer dinner. Hey, how's the beer? How's everything?
Speaker:
00:10:30
Like, hey.
Speaker:
00:10:32
You know one of those?
Speaker:
00:10:33
Because it's like, what am I going to say?
Speaker:
00:10:35
Hey, it's kind of shitty.
Speaker:
00:10:36
Like, all three of these different beers kind of suck.
Speaker:
00:10:38
Can you pour us three different ones? That'll probably also suck.
Speaker:
00:10:41
I mean, I didn't. Yeah, like, what's the right response here?
Speaker:
00:10:43
Is that you.
Speaker:
00:10:44
Every and all these beers are horrible.
Speaker:
00:10:46
Like, how do you respond?
Speaker:
00:10:47
It's not just like, one. One didn't come out great, or we're.
Speaker:
00:10:50
I'm not a fan of this one style. I mean, it's all styles.
Speaker:
00:10:52
We wanted in three separate beers.
Speaker:
00:10:54
None of them were were very good.
Speaker:
00:10:56
I was like, Yeah, it's great. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:10:59
You can fix it. You're not the brewer.
Speaker:
00:11:01
You know?
Speaker:
00:11:02
So I was just. Like, uh.
Speaker:
00:11:05
They were just playing the lines.
Speaker:
00:11:07
Right?
Speaker:
00:11:08
This did not taste like dirty lines.
Speaker:
00:11:11
So anyways,
Speaker:
00:11:11
then from there, we hit up a restaurant, had some cocktails, smart.
Speaker:
00:11:15
We had beer all day. Then had some cocktails.
Speaker:
00:11:16
Oh, we hit up.
Speaker:
00:11:17
The transmission to transmission is a little newer to the scene, and they just
Speaker:
00:11:21
opened a rooftop lounge area, which is awesome.
Speaker:
00:11:25
It overlooks the beach.
Speaker:
00:11:26
Damn, that's. Hot.
Speaker:
00:11:27
Oh, Daddy, it was so hot.
Speaker:
00:11:29
And on top of all that,
Speaker:
00:11:32
they don't.
Speaker:
00:11:33
The rooftop deck is 21 and over.
Speaker:
00:11:36
So, you know, there's no kids running around.
Speaker:
00:11:38
Just nice to chill, relax and spot for a beer and pizza.
Speaker:
00:11:43
Sounds like a gnarly birthday.
Speaker:
00:11:44
Yeah, it's good times the hundred.
Speaker:
00:11:46
The night before, the wife took me out to dinner.
Speaker:
00:11:48
Went to this place in downtown L.A..
Speaker:
00:11:51
It's kind of like 71 above, I think.
Speaker:
00:11:53
Anyways, it's on the 71st floor.
Speaker:
00:11:55
God can go there then, right? Yeah.
Speaker:
00:11:58
Finally there.
Speaker:
00:11:59
Was, I was like a it's like a. Club.
Speaker:
00:12:01
Yeah. I've been going there for years. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:12:06
That's exactly it.
Speaker:
00:12:09
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:12:09
It's on the very first floor of the US bank. It was really weird.
Speaker:
00:12:12
We're sitting there eating and like, out of the corner of my eye
Speaker:
00:12:15
like below me is a helicopter.
Speaker:
00:12:18
I was like, Whoa. It was like, what? It was like mid-conversation.
Speaker:
00:12:21
I was like, It's weird to see a helicopter below you when you're eating.
Speaker:
00:12:25
So let me. Ask you.
Speaker:
00:12:26
So you have a ginormous US bank building.
Speaker:
00:12:29
Yeah, that's because we have a giant US bank building in Milwaukee.
Speaker:
00:12:34
It's like the tallest building in the downtown.
Speaker:
00:12:36
Oh, this is.
Speaker:
00:12:37
I think this used to be the tall. It's not anymore.
Speaker:
00:12:39
It's like second or third tallest in downtown L.A., but
Speaker:
00:12:42
yeah, they have 72 floors the restaurant's on the 71st.
Speaker:
00:12:45
It's also known for having a slide that like goes out of like the 65th floor
Speaker:
00:12:50
and then like goes down a couple of floors back inside the building.
Speaker:
00:12:53
I guess they closed during COVID
Speaker:
00:12:54
and still haven't opened yet, but yeah, I would totally do otherwise.
Speaker:
00:12:57
Like, no fucking way.
Speaker:
00:12:58
No, I probably. Wouldn't do it here.
Speaker:
00:13:00
Oh, sounds awesome.
Speaker:
00:13:01
Would you? Would you skydive, flex.
Speaker:
00:13:03
I would consider it like I would need
Speaker:
00:13:06
somebody to come up to me like, Hey, I'm going to sign up to do this.
Speaker:
00:13:10
You need to do it with me.
Speaker:
00:13:12
And then that would probably be forced to sign up and then I would be scared
Speaker:
00:13:16
as shit to do it. But yeah, I would probably fucking do it.
Speaker:
00:13:18
All right.
Speaker:
00:13:18
Well, I'll be that guy now.
Speaker:
00:13:21
Yeah. So anyway, so that was fun.
Speaker:
00:13:23
Uh, had a nice little birthday weekend, then, uh,
Speaker:
00:13:27
things came to a not so good point.
Speaker:
00:13:31
I've talked about it many time.
Speaker:
00:13:32
On the show before.
Speaker:
00:13:34
Uh, Vin Scully voice the Dodgers
Speaker:
00:13:37
guy. If you need to get Kleenex, now's a great time.
Speaker:
00:13:39
Yeah, I've.
Speaker:
00:13:40
Got mine ready.
Speaker:
00:13:41
Passed away the other day. To me,
Speaker:
00:13:44
he was not only the voice of summer, but kind of like the grandpa of summer.
Speaker:
00:13:48
All my grandparents died really early.
Speaker:
00:13:50
Those like I grew up with Vin saying it's time for Dodger baseball.
Speaker:
00:13:54
I cried on his last little tear in his last broadcast from San Francisco
Speaker:
00:13:59
when he thanked everybody and said that he needed us more than we needed or,
Speaker:
00:14:03
you know, he needed has more than we needed him.
Speaker:
00:14:05
First of all, bullshit.
Speaker:
00:14:06
Second of all, I'm not crying.
Speaker:
00:14:07
You're crying.
Speaker:
00:14:09
Of course, tears were shed when they announced that he passed away.
Speaker:
00:14:13
And then to make things worse, the news decided to play over and over again.
Speaker:
00:14:16
The clip a few days later from Dodger Stadium, where asshole Dave Roberts
Speaker:
00:14:20
got the entire crowd to say It's time for Dodger baseball.
Speaker:
00:14:24
I fuck, man.
Speaker:
00:14:27
So with that,
Speaker:
00:14:27
before we share any Vince stories, I just I figured I'd play this.
Speaker:
00:14:31
This is my favorite Vine clip of all time because his voice is so great.
Speaker:
00:14:36
They got him to just read a grocery list because why not
Speaker:
00:15:30
Not so good.
Speaker:
00:15:32
Yeah, that's awesome.
Speaker:
00:15:33
Kosher, that is.
Speaker:
00:15:35
Yeah, kosher. That is. Bellona.
Speaker:
00:15:37
So it's a thanks to Vin for the many,
Speaker:
00:15:40
many years of being the best voice and definitely baseball.
Speaker:
00:15:44
And, I don't know, flex.
Speaker:
00:15:46
I mean, I'm sure you've heard of Vin Scully out there, right?
Speaker:
00:15:50
Oh, yeah.
Speaker:
00:15:50
Naturally. Who he is in Milwaukee. But.
Speaker:
00:15:53
But you know who he is.
Speaker:
00:15:55
Yeah, like, we we had both Vin and Chick Hearn in L.A..
Speaker:
00:15:58
We had kind of the best of of sports.
Speaker:
00:16:01
They weren't quite as drunk as Harry Carey, but, yeah,
Speaker:
00:16:05
we kind of had, like, two of the best voices in sports.
Speaker:
00:16:07
And so.
Speaker:
00:16:09
Anyways, thanks, Vin, for raising me through the summers,
Speaker:
00:16:12
and I'm going to go cry into my shirt now.
Speaker:
00:16:16
Yeah, I mean, I go back many, many years as Vin as a as a kid.
Speaker:
00:16:21
Uh, I remember we had a radio in our garage,
Speaker:
00:16:24
and I'd turn on the radio listening to Dodger games listening to Vin and,
Speaker:
00:16:28
uh, you know, do whatever I was doing in the driveway
Speaker:
00:16:31
and maybe be throwing a ball around or swing the bat or whatever.
Speaker:
00:16:34
But, I mean, from then up to I mean, for years and years and years,
Speaker:
00:16:38
I he, I mean, he did it for 67 years and,
Speaker:
00:16:41
and I mean, it was just the best.
Speaker:
00:16:43
I'm getting the opportunity now.
Speaker:
00:16:46
I watch a lot of different baseball games listening to different announcers.
Speaker:
00:16:49
And I was doing that last week and just about every game
Speaker:
00:16:52
that I listen to, every pass, every announcer
Speaker:
00:16:56
would you know, talk about Vin and how he helped their career. And
Speaker:
00:17:02
even the Padres announcer one of them,
Speaker:
00:17:04
he said, I wouldn't have a career who wasn't for Vin Scully, too.
Speaker:
00:17:07
That helped me out when I first got started.
Speaker:
00:17:09
And that's just the kind of guy he was.
Speaker:
00:17:11
And he's there'll never be another one like him.
Speaker:
00:17:14
And he, he was the best.
Speaker:
00:17:15
Yeah. And I'm a huge Niners fan.
Speaker:
00:17:17
And he called the the big play, right?
Speaker:
00:17:19
Montana passed it in at the end and got an touchdown.
Speaker:
00:17:23
And then I was go I mean, that was Vin, so.
Speaker:
00:17:24
Yeah, they're the big part of my life.
Speaker:
00:17:27
There is a while.
Speaker:
00:17:27
Yeah, he did football, he did golf, he did baseball.
Speaker:
00:17:30
And, you know, eventually he backed off from that.
Speaker:
00:17:33
Then every time he would back off it, the same reason the same reason
Speaker:
00:17:36
why he retired, he goes, I'm in an awesome family time.
Speaker:
00:17:40
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:17:40
R.I.P. Vin.
Speaker:
00:17:42
Yeah, we'll miss him, that's for sure. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:17:44
So you bring the mood down.
Speaker:
00:17:46
I mean,
Speaker:
00:17:47
we kind of in Milwaukee, we will eventually feel
Speaker:
00:17:50
the same way when Bob Euchre ends up leaving baseball for the world.
Speaker:
00:17:53
And cause that's, you know, Mr.
Speaker:
00:17:55
Baseball to us.
Speaker:
00:17:56
And he's been in the league playing and announcing for over 50 years.
Speaker:
00:18:01
So we kind of it's like a preemptive for us here
Speaker:
00:18:05
in Wisconsin to kind of get that, you know, unfortunate feeling.
Speaker:
00:18:09
So the line that really gets me from him is it's
Speaker:
00:18:12
not even from like a real baseball game.
Speaker:
00:18:14
It's from Major League.
Speaker:
00:18:16
You know, the, the Indians win it, the Indians win it.
Speaker:
00:18:20
Oh, my God, the Indians.
Speaker:
00:18:22
Win is so good the best.
Speaker:
00:18:25
I think every time you mention
Speaker:
00:18:27
Bob Iger, the first thing that comes to my mind is just a bit outside.
Speaker:
00:18:30
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:18:33
That is true.
Speaker:
00:18:35
Oh, all right.
Speaker:
00:18:36
Well, all right, well, we'll bring it up from here, I think.
Speaker:
00:18:38
I hope flex, we teased me in the show.
Speaker:
00:18:40
You got a black guy, and I'm hoping you painted your nails over the weekend.
Speaker:
00:18:44
What?
Speaker:
00:18:44
What the fuck happened to you and how drunk were you?
Speaker:
00:18:48
OK, so I did get pretty knackered.
Speaker:
00:18:51
Um, but we went to I grabbed a couple of buddies,
Speaker:
00:18:54
and we went to what is called sad summer fest.
Speaker:
00:18:57
OK, it is a tour that now goes on
Speaker:
00:19:01
because the Warped Tour doesn't
Speaker:
00:19:04
make sense, you know?
Speaker:
00:19:05
So like, the Warped Tour was, you know, all these emo screamo,
Speaker:
00:19:09
you know, punk rock bands.
Speaker:
00:19:10
And since that's not going on anymore, there's been this small
Speaker:
00:19:15
revolution, if you want to put it that way.
Speaker:
00:19:18
It started like two years ago, and there was like four bands that did it.
Speaker:
00:19:22
And now two years ago, there was like eight or nine bands that
Speaker:
00:19:27
participated in it.
Speaker:
00:19:29
So we're just not now.
Speaker:
00:19:30
I'm hoping next year two years from now that that doubles again and it gets bigger
Speaker:
00:19:34
and it'll be able to be held in like bigger venues
Speaker:
00:19:39
and just kind of bring back that whole Warped Tour atmosphere
Speaker:
00:19:42
that everybody, you know, knows and loves because that shit was just the best.
Speaker:
00:19:47
But alas, so I grabbed my buddies
Speaker:
00:19:50
and figured why not just get emo to dress
Speaker:
00:19:54
kind of goofy and by kind of goofy, I mean pretty fuckin goofy.
Speaker:
00:19:58
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:19:58
And we did by a couple of my buddies had the short shorts on.
Speaker:
00:20:04
Another buddy of mine dressed completely nineties.
Speaker:
00:20:06
I was, you know, looked like an idiot myself
Speaker:
00:20:10
and the main band I went to see is called Mayday Parade.
Speaker:
00:20:14
Oh, I've heard of them.
Speaker:
00:20:15
Yeah, they've been around since like 2011 or 12 or something like that.
Speaker:
00:20:18
And just really, really big band for me the done a lot for me in my life and
Speaker:
00:20:25
I was,
Speaker:
00:20:25
you know, having a really good time dancing, moshing, crowd
Speaker:
00:20:28
surfing to their show and we get done with it.
Speaker:
00:20:31
They put on an awesome performance and we go outside
Speaker:
00:20:34
to kind of take a breather because it was probably like 120 degrees
Speaker:
00:20:38
in like where we were dancing.
Speaker:
00:20:41
Where is the studio right now? Yeah.
Speaker:
00:20:44
And we were talking with some people, some friends,
Speaker:
00:20:49
my buddies and this dude looks at me and he goes,
Speaker:
00:20:53
What happened to your eye?
Speaker:
00:20:55
And I was like, What are you talking about?
Speaker:
00:20:58
Because it looks like you got punched in the eye.
Speaker:
00:21:01
And I said, It doesn't, it didn't feel like I got punched in the eye.
Speaker:
00:21:04
My eye felt normal.
Speaker:
00:21:06
There is nothing wrong with my eye.
Speaker:
00:21:08
And then everybody else started peeking at my eye and they got you got
Speaker:
00:21:11
punched in the eye.
Speaker:
00:21:14
I was like, well, that's weird because it doesn't feel like it.
Speaker:
00:21:17
I don't notice it. Nothing.
Speaker:
00:21:18
Nothing is different.
Speaker:
00:21:20
You guys are full of shit.
Speaker:
00:21:21
You're full of shit.
Speaker:
00:21:23
So even pulled out my phone, I'm like trying to look at my camera
Speaker:
00:21:25
and I'm like, Oh, it looks, I don't know, maybe a little tinted, but nothing bad.
Speaker:
00:21:30
And then we went to the second last band playing.
Speaker:
00:21:35
We went in there mosh pit, and in during the second song,
Speaker:
00:21:40
I got hit in the exact same spot where I got a phantom hit.
Speaker:
00:21:45
And let me tell you, I noticed that big time,
Speaker:
00:21:50
but again, it hurt initially,
Speaker:
00:21:52
and then it didn't really hurt until after the show.
Speaker:
00:21:55
We're driving home and I'm just like, Oh, my God, my fucking eye hurts.
Speaker:
00:22:01
So I get home, get some water, get some ice on my eye.
Speaker:
00:22:06
And again, I'm looking in the mirror, it looks OK.
Speaker:
00:22:10
And then I woke up 4 hours later and it was completely fucking black.
Speaker:
00:22:14
It's like the first black I've ever gotten in my life and really yeah.
Speaker:
00:22:18
And I don't even know how it actually happened.
Speaker:
00:22:22
That's.
Speaker:
00:22:22
What did your wife say?
Speaker:
00:22:24
That's all I want to know.
Speaker:
00:22:26
Do you want me to do it?
Speaker:
00:22:27
And like the voice that I imitate my wife in.
Speaker:
00:22:30
Yes, please.
Speaker:
00:22:35
You're what?
Speaker:
00:22:37
Do you do it? You're a 34 year old dad.
Speaker:
00:22:39
What do you what do you do?
Speaker:
00:22:40
It must be the crowd servant.
Speaker:
00:22:42
You need to act like a normal human being.
Speaker:
00:22:47
That's what I was hoping for, basically.
Speaker:
00:22:48
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker:
00:22:49
That was yeah. In a nutshell, that's what it was.
Speaker:
00:22:52
I expected your wife to say something like, Now call me that again or something.
Speaker:
00:22:57
I was over.
Speaker:
00:22:58
I was hoping she would think it was, like, hot and tough.
Speaker:
00:23:00
You know, it's like, oh, I'll tell you what.
Speaker:
00:23:02
I can't fix or build anything you know?
Speaker:
00:23:06
I'm not like that kind of man. Sure.
Speaker:
00:23:08
But it's like I can, you know, throw down in a mosh pit and I can stop.
Speaker:
00:23:13
And but as.
Speaker:
00:23:14
Americans yeah, you know what I'm saying?
Speaker:
00:23:15
Like, I can me like, I can do some other manly shit and be kind of tough and.
Speaker:
00:23:20
Yeah, you know, I got the.
Speaker:
00:23:22
Complete opposite.
Speaker:
00:23:23
Reaction.
Speaker:
00:23:24
If only you could have convinced her that somebody called her a name or something.
Speaker:
00:23:27
And you're fighting for her honor.
Speaker:
00:23:29
For her honor.
Speaker:
00:23:31
She I have no white knight.
Speaker:
00:23:34
Well.
Speaker:
00:23:34
I love how you were hoping
Speaker:
00:23:36
that she would think you were, like, some sexy beast
Speaker:
00:23:38
who got in a fight when you don't even know how you fucking got it.
Speaker:
00:23:41
No, I have no idea. Right.
Speaker:
00:23:43
So you know what's sexy about that?
Speaker:
00:23:45
You should have been like, oh, this guy came up and blah, blah, blah.
Speaker:
00:23:48
I don't know if.
Speaker:
00:23:50
Maybe, just maybe just the look of it is what looks tough.
Speaker:
00:23:53
It's like oh, he's.
Speaker:
00:23:54
He's got a black guy. That's tough.
Speaker:
00:23:57
Yeah. Oh, man, don't fuck with that guy.
Speaker:
00:23:59
Yeah, that's like. That's like measuring dicks.
Speaker:
00:24:01
Only guys actually care about that. Yeah, that's true.
Speaker:
00:24:04
Yeah, it's important.
Speaker:
00:24:05
Like, we we hope and think women care that they don't just like.
Speaker:
00:24:08
Yeah, you don't care about your fucking black guy.
Speaker:
00:24:10
You're an idiot, Dad.
Speaker:
00:24:11
Who should act like a normal human?
Speaker:
00:24:14
So the problem is, too, it's not even like a tough looking black guy.
Speaker:
00:24:17
It's like a pretty black guy.
Speaker:
00:24:18
We're like, you look at me, and it actually looks like I'm wearing makeup.
Speaker:
00:24:22
Yeah, well, you're pretty, so it's.
Speaker:
00:24:23
Oh, my gosh. Well, thank you so much.
Speaker:
00:24:26
It's like when Shawn Michaels gets a black guy, you know, the Heartbreak Kid.
Speaker:
00:24:28
It just.
Speaker:
00:24:29
It's so pretty.
Speaker:
00:24:30
He's. He's for the heartbreak. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:24:32
Or he used to be.
Speaker:
00:24:33
Now he's weird and bald and doesn't make sense.
Speaker:
00:24:35
And now he's got the money.
Speaker:
00:24:35
He's got the monkey.
Speaker:
00:24:36
But yeah.
Speaker:
00:24:37
Yeah, the monkey boy.
Speaker:
00:24:40
Show which way he's looking anymore.
Speaker:
00:24:42
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker:
00:24:44
That fool got real cross-eyed
Speaker:
00:24:47
undertaker not only ended his career, but also ended his normal eyesight,
Speaker:
00:24:51
ended his peripheral vision.
Speaker:
00:24:53
So did you paint your nails? Oh, the nails.
Speaker:
00:24:56
I never painted my nails.
Speaker:
00:24:57
Oh, not even my nails for of.
Speaker:
00:25:00
Not even when I used to be super emo.
Speaker:
00:25:02
Oh. That's too bad.
Speaker:
00:25:03
I got a lot of compliments on mine at emo fest.
Speaker:
00:25:06
Well, then you must have done a really great job.
Speaker:
00:25:09
The wife did a great. Job, which was always.
Speaker:
00:25:11
It was super weird.
Speaker:
00:25:12
She's like, All right, well, I'll paint them now. I'm like, this is.
Speaker:
00:25:15
This is not something that I ever want to hear you say ever again.
Speaker:
00:25:19
Unless she liked it.
Speaker:
00:25:21
Well, here, I shouldn't even share.
Speaker:
00:25:24
This is the most embarrassing part.
Speaker:
00:25:25
She did it and then, like, one of the colors she used
Speaker:
00:25:28
was, like, old and, like, didn't stick well or whatever.
Speaker:
00:25:30
And so I woke up the next is the night before I got the next one,
Speaker:
00:25:32
I was like, fuck, this one's all jacked up.
Speaker:
00:25:34
So I got the apology and I fixed it.
Speaker:
00:25:37
I was like, wow, it looks even better now that I've fixed it.
Speaker:
00:25:39
Then when she did it, like, this is not something I'm proud of.
Speaker:
00:25:43
All right.
Speaker:
00:25:45
So anyhow, all right, let's
Speaker:
00:25:48
let's answer what's probably the most important question
Speaker:
00:25:51
of the night.
Speaker:
00:26:13
What is. It.
Speaker:
00:26:17
Well, I will let the people wait no further.
Speaker:
00:26:20
Today I
Speaker:
00:26:21
am drinking because I got completely sucked into this.
Speaker:
00:26:24
Cannot
Speaker:
00:26:26
Goon Platoon by director brewing company.
Speaker:
00:26:30
It is a double IPA and it is brewed with
Speaker:
00:26:35
Citra Belmont and NH, Z100 seven hops.
Speaker:
00:26:40
It has a nine all right.
Speaker:
00:26:42
It has 4.13 collective on untapped
Speaker:
00:26:46
not a ton of check ins, but enough for a decent score.
Speaker:
00:26:50
And it reads Goon Platoon is brewed with oats and loaded up
Speaker:
00:26:53
with Sicher Belmont and an HD one on seven hops for a super
Speaker:
00:26:58
balanced flavor with notes of kiwi guava and strawberry candy. Mm.
Speaker:
00:27:03
As we sniff this bad boy
Speaker:
00:27:08
definitely get tons of strawberry.
Speaker:
00:27:11
I love Belmont Hops because of the strawberry.
Speaker:
00:27:15
The heavy strawberry notes that it carries.
Speaker:
00:27:16
And I don't know if it is just a rare hop or an expensive hop, but it is.
Speaker:
00:27:21
It's used sparingly.
Speaker:
00:27:24
And every time I see a beer with it, I really, really enjoy it.
Speaker:
00:27:28
Like, especially when Mr.
Speaker:
00:27:30
Arbitrary Notes come out so we, you know, warm up the old tongue jobber here.
Speaker:
00:27:34
Oh, this is how we get all the listens, my rewards of that tongue jabber.
Speaker:
00:27:39
And again, it's it's a director,
Speaker:
00:27:42
so it's got that great soft mouthfeel carbonation is
Speaker:
00:27:46
low, but it's there. And
Speaker:
00:27:50
again, you get
Speaker:
00:27:51
I don't taste any Kiwi at all, but it's heavy strawberry a little bit of the guava
Speaker:
00:27:57
super, super touch of bitterness on the end.
Speaker:
00:28:01
8% obvs is super good
Speaker:
00:28:04
beer 1999 for four pack. My.
Speaker:
00:28:08
8% but the canard I showed
Speaker:
00:28:11
you is just ridiculous.
Speaker:
00:28:15
So I feel like you're hitting on two of the three.
Speaker:
00:28:17
Definitely hitting on to Hillary and the fact
Speaker:
00:28:22
that it tastes so good which you don't know before you buy it.
Speaker:
00:28:26
I really lucked out with that.
Speaker:
00:28:28
So I would say this this beer is flex approved it's not 100%
Speaker:
00:28:34
fitting the algorithm, but it is 100% flex approved
Speaker:
00:28:37
plus it's got some gnarly lacing going on here.
Speaker:
00:28:40
You got you love that sexy.
Speaker:
00:28:42
You know I love the circulation.
Speaker:
00:28:44
I know that Drecker got pretty hype for a while,
Speaker:
00:28:46
but if there's one thing you can say about Drecker is, you know,
Speaker:
00:28:50
like especially with their faces, like the quality's always coming through.
Speaker:
00:28:53
Like I've never had a bad hazy from Drecker.
Speaker:
00:28:57
I've had one.
Speaker:
00:28:58
Oh, OK. Well, I stand corrected, but not.
Speaker:
00:29:01
Everybody.
Speaker:
00:29:01
I mean one I mean one beer out of
Speaker:
00:29:05
however many they've been brewing.
Speaker:
00:29:07
Right.
Speaker:
00:29:08
You know, and they drop anywhere from four to seven a week.
Speaker:
00:29:12
Yeah. They're always dropping. Shit. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:29:14
So, I mean, with the amount of production that they do and the stuff
Speaker:
00:29:17
that they send out, I would say if you get one bad beer, it's
Speaker:
00:29:21
you're doing a pretty damn good job.
Speaker:
00:29:23
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:29:24
You know, I've had one of their one or two of their sours not travel
Speaker:
00:29:27
so well, but I've never seen anything bad from their, their hoppy selections.
Speaker:
00:29:31
So cheers to Director super consistent,
Speaker:
00:29:35
that is for sure.
Speaker:
00:29:37
All right.
Speaker:
00:29:37
Maui Brewing, you know, they were the runners
Speaker:
00:29:40
up in the purchase of modern times and they have officially said.
Speaker:
00:29:45
Yeah. We'll buy it.
Speaker:
00:29:47
So Maui is going to be taking over modern times.
Speaker:
00:29:51
They expect the deal to close in late October.
Speaker:
00:29:55
And then from there, they'll start rolling shit out.
Speaker:
00:29:59
They're not going to immediately bring production over, but
Speaker:
00:30:02
it's only a matter of time before they start producing Maui stuff stateside.
Speaker:
00:30:06
I don't know if I read or heard this right,
Speaker:
00:30:07
but then they have to, like, up their offer like quite a bit
Speaker:
00:30:11
to to get modern times to agree.
Speaker:
00:30:14
Oh, I didn't read that. I.
Speaker:
00:30:16
I, maybe I read it wrong, but what I thought I read was
Speaker:
00:30:20
that they almost had to double their offer to where I'm thinking why, but.
Speaker:
00:30:25
Well, I, well, I don't remember that.
Speaker:
00:30:28
So before the auction started, Maui
Speaker:
00:30:31
was the first one to say, well, take modern times.
Speaker:
00:30:34
And they put in a bid of I don't remember how much money.
Speaker:
00:30:38
And then the bidding actually start like you needed.
Speaker:
00:30:41
That was like a, you know, like a formality, like that needed to happen.
Speaker:
00:30:43
Somebody needed to basically do a starting bid.
Speaker:
00:30:47
So then the actual bid day came and Maui bid
Speaker:
00:30:51
and they were the second highest behind Brewery Brewery X one.
Speaker:
00:30:56
And then I'm pretty sure it was all for publicity because then they backed out.
Speaker:
00:31:00
Super weird.
Speaker:
00:31:01
And so then they went back to Maui.
Speaker:
00:31:04
I didn't read anywhere that they had to up it from that.
Speaker:
00:31:06
Maybe they upped it from their original I'm throwing my hat in the ring bid
Speaker:
00:31:11
could be.
Speaker:
00:31:12
And maybe my sources are.
Speaker:
00:31:14
I may have to kill them. I don't know.
Speaker:
00:31:17
I mean, if they're wrong, that just feels like the right thing to do.
Speaker:
00:31:20
You have no choice.
Speaker:
00:31:22
Zero choice. Right?
Speaker:
00:31:25
You fool me once, you're fucking dead.
Speaker:
00:31:27
That's right.
Speaker:
00:31:27
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:31:28
That's how the saying goes, right?
Speaker:
00:31:31
Now, that's.
Speaker:
00:31:32
A. Motto
Speaker:
00:31:35
this should. Be a t. Shirt.
Speaker:
00:31:36
Only once you're fucking dead.
Speaker:
00:31:38
Modern modern times would have never had a problem
Speaker:
00:31:40
if they would have served real meat anyway.
Speaker:
00:31:43
So wait for that I.
Speaker:
00:31:46
Just think if that cowboy burger had a cow in it, then a.
Speaker:
00:31:50
Cowboy burger, my. Ass. Yeah. Yeah, that's.
Speaker:
00:31:53
That was their first mistake. Cause they pissed me off. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:31:56
And they went downhill after that.
Speaker:
00:31:58
Oh, well, like, stone cold always says it's better to be pissed off
Speaker:
00:32:01
than pissed on.
Speaker:
00:32:02
Here you go. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:32:03
So yeah, if that cowboy burger had a little cow in it, maybe.
Speaker:
00:32:07
It. Lasted a little longer and.
Speaker:
00:32:10
Oh, get off
Speaker:
00:32:11
your ironic high horse and stop the vegan bullshit.
Speaker:
00:32:15
OK, anyways, don't get me started.
Speaker:
00:32:18
And then in more legal chit breweries, a judge has affirmed
Speaker:
00:32:22
the $56 million jury verdict for stone brewing against Molson Coors.
Speaker:
00:32:28
Wolzinger has tried to obviously get that thrown out.
Speaker:
00:32:30
Judge says no.
Speaker:
00:32:32
In fact, he said
Speaker:
00:32:35
nice and he's he's affirming the 56th.
Speaker:
00:32:39
We had a whole like half of episode where we didn't put any like selling
Speaker:
00:32:42
cold drops or jokes or anything and now here here they just come flowing out you.
Speaker:
00:32:45
Know that was supernatural too. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:32:47
Oh thanks
Speaker:
00:32:50
supernatural just like you're minus monastery.
Speaker:
00:32:53
And then speaking of stone
Speaker:
00:32:56
and Molson Coors, a judge has denied stones attempt to gain
Speaker:
00:33:01
profits and damages as well as attorney fees from Molson cause
Speaker:
00:33:06
they wanted to get an additional $116 million out of Molson Coors.
Speaker:
00:33:11
Wow. Yeah. And the judge said.
Speaker:
00:33:14
And so
Speaker:
00:33:16
they said what?
Speaker:
00:33:18
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:33:19
We want 116. What?
Speaker:
00:33:22
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:33:23
I said 116.
Speaker:
00:33:24
What you hard of hearing
Speaker:
00:33:28
so they're stuck with their their little $56 million suit.
Speaker:
00:33:32
They're
Speaker:
00:33:34
the hop growers union of the Czech Republic.
Speaker:
00:33:37
I didn't knows the thing has named Firestone Walker brewmaster Matt Brindle
Speaker:
00:33:41
said a night of the order of the hop which is apparently is
Speaker:
00:33:46
an honor that is bestowed upon global beer industry luminaries.
Speaker:
00:33:49
OK I want this fucking honorary oh yeah.
Speaker:
00:33:53
Is there a patch I can buy that I can put on a jacket or something.
Speaker:
00:33:56
It's a real fucking thing.
Speaker:
00:33:58
Knight of the Order of the Hop.
Speaker:
00:34:00
Jesus Christ.
Speaker:
00:34:01
What higher honor is there than that?
Speaker:
00:34:03
Yeah. You know what?
Speaker:
00:34:04
Is there a description about?
Speaker:
00:34:06
Like what that is. Dude?
Speaker:
00:34:08
First of all, a knight or the order of the hop needs no description.
Speaker:
00:34:12
Fair enough. How dare you?
Speaker:
00:34:14
How do you question the night of the order?
Speaker:
00:34:16
The hop also England.
Speaker:
00:34:18
You can suck it with your whole knighthood thing.
Speaker:
00:34:20
This is like 18 times better.
Speaker:
00:34:24
It's actual.
Speaker:
00:34:25
Royalty. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:34:28
Imagine this guy going to England and running into it
Speaker:
00:34:31
with the Knights in England, and he's like, Fuck you, dude, I'm
Speaker:
00:34:34
this big hop, you know, then you need or hop.
Speaker:
00:34:38
He walks up to the castle and like, Who do you think you are?
Speaker:
00:34:42
No, no, no, no, no. No.
Speaker:
00:34:44
Who do you think you are? Is burns it down?
Speaker:
00:34:47
Yeah. Burn it. Sorry.
Speaker:
00:34:50
And in an attempt to completely piss off flex
Speaker:
00:34:53
I thought I'd announce that Goose Island has announced their 2020 to Bourbon
Speaker:
00:34:57
County style lineup just ahead of their big 30th anniversary.
Speaker:
00:35:01
You know, I'd seen this on the rundown and it made me grin
Speaker:
00:35:05
a little bit because, you know, I knew you put it in just to piss me off.
Speaker:
00:35:10
I did?
Speaker:
00:35:10
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:35:11
Because, hey, Goose Island but you.
Speaker:
00:35:14
Where's the Mountain Dew Iced Tea?
Speaker:
00:35:16

Speaker:

Speaker:
00:35:21
Oh, that's all of them. Oh.
Speaker:
00:35:26
Well, fun fact, Matt.
Speaker:
00:35:27
Brendan, who is now a night of the order of the hop, started at Goose Island.
Speaker:
00:35:32
Before they were big beer.
Speaker:
00:35:34
Well, and look at it now.
Speaker:
00:35:36
Mm. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:35:37
Now is a night of the order of the hops.
Speaker:
00:35:39
Yeah. Suck it, England.
Speaker:
00:35:41
They should do a documentary on you.
Speaker:
00:35:43
Get Goose Island. Dishes in the ass.
Speaker:
00:35:45
I'll get Goose Island.
Speaker:
00:35:46
We'll end it on the story that Vanessa sent to us
Speaker:
00:35:49
that this is just, you know, this is Florida in a nutshell.
Speaker:
00:35:54
Florida man arrested for DUI inside a Wal-Mart.
Speaker:
00:35:59
A Florida man was arrested Sunday after he allegedly drove
Speaker:
00:36:02
a motorized scooter and crashed into the shelves of a Wal-Mart store
Speaker:
00:36:07
while drunk in Melbourne City, southeast of Orlando.
Speaker:
00:36:11
The 39 year old, whose name has not been disclosed, was driving a Walmart
Speaker:
00:36:14
scooter with his open backpack sitting in the basket
Speaker:
00:36:17
in which an open bottle of Smirnoff Vodka was spotted.
Speaker:
00:36:20
Gross. No I know.
Speaker:
00:36:23
Could you. Step it up just a smidge. Please?
Speaker:
00:36:26
Oh, sorry.
Speaker:
00:36:26
It's Florida.
Speaker:
00:36:27
Florida. It's very.
Speaker:
00:36:29
Classy. Is it gets in Florida.
Speaker:
00:36:31
That is extremely classy.
Speaker:
00:36:33
Melbourne police said that the offender had been swaying in the scooter
Speaker:
00:36:37
and hitting shells and almost ran over other customers in the aisles.
Speaker:
00:36:41
He was described by authorities as having
Speaker:
00:36:44
glassy eyes and smelled like alcohol.
Speaker:
00:36:48
He is said to be unresponsive when asked to show his ID
Speaker:
00:36:51
and had to be carried to patrol the vehicle on a stretcher.
Speaker:
00:36:54
Oh gee, she is.
Speaker:
00:36:57
Later, the scooter driver refused a breathalyzer test winning custody.
Speaker:
00:37:01
Homie, I think you're past that point. Yes.
Speaker:
00:37:04
Well, you know what, though?
Speaker:
00:37:05
Like the the man, the myth, the legend said, man, don't trust anybody.
Speaker:
00:37:09
You're right. That is true. You go.
Speaker:
00:37:12
He was locked up in the Brevard County jail on charges of driving
Speaker:
00:37:16
under the influence, disorderly intoxication, refusal
Speaker:
00:37:20
with prior citation and possession of an open and shitty container.
Speaker:
00:37:26
So thanks, Florida, keeping it classy.
Speaker:
00:37:29
Is this true that I heard.
Speaker:
00:37:31
That they Florida? Yeah, no kidding.
Speaker:
00:37:34
Once you became a permanent resident of Florida, you get a scooter?
Speaker:
00:37:38
I think so.
Speaker:
00:37:38
I think issues yeah, it's
Speaker:
00:37:39
a state issued scooter that they give you when you become a permanent resident.
Speaker:
00:37:43
Yeah.
Speaker:
00:37:43
They even ask you, they just automatically put the handicapped placard on the back.
Speaker:
00:37:46
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker:
00:37:48
It's a scooter.
Speaker:
00:37:49
You get a gator and a hand grenade. Yeah.
Speaker:
00:37:52
Oh, yeah. The hand grenade. Yeah, that's.
Speaker:
00:37:53
That's the Florida package. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker:
00:37:57
Welcome to Florida.
Speaker:
00:37:58
The Florida special. Welcome to Florida.
Speaker:
00:38:01
Your official.
Speaker:
00:38:02
Yeah, it sounds like a horrible drink.
Speaker:
00:38:03
By the way, the Florida Special.
Speaker:
00:38:07
No, thanks.
Speaker:
00:38:08
Sounds like a lot of sweat and a glass that's sort of.
Speaker:
00:38:12

Speaker:
00:38:13
Lot. A lot of sweat.
Speaker:
00:38:14
And somehow firearms and yeah.
Speaker:
00:38:17
And wild animals.
Speaker:
00:38:17
That's Smirnoff Vodka. Oof! No, thanks.
Speaker:
00:38:21
Pass vodka makes the room spin, and Smirnoff Vodka just doubles it.
Speaker:
00:38:27
Just makes you puke.
Speaker:
00:38:28
That's what I'm saying.
Speaker:
00:38:29
