1
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: The Firecracker is a cigar unto itself from United Cigars,

2
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,799
Speaker 1: the people who bring you the Ada Bay, the people

3
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:17,080
Speaker 1: who bring you Bandolero, a whole series of really interesting

4
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:20,440
Speaker 1: and very very good cigars. It's called the Firecracker because

5
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:24,079
Speaker 1: of this fuse it runs down the side of the cigar.

6
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: It's something they've been doing, I think since two thousand

7
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 1: and seven. Well in a very weird way of working

8
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:34,159
Speaker 1: with other cigar manufacturers. They've been licensing the shape and J. C.

9
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 1: Newman they took the challenge.

10
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 2: It's eat, drink, smoke. I'm Tony Katzen.

11
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 1: That right there is America's favorite amateur drinker, Fingers molloy.

12
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 1: This is the l button Firecracker. Cameroon rapper. The Newman's

13
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 1: will tell you that at Stanford Newman, who brought the

14
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: cameroon into existence, made this a part of cigar lore

15
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: and full disclosure. Sucker for a cameroon there they're Jason

16
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: Newman does once a year. There's this like three pack

17
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: of cigars that comes out. I don't even know the

18
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 1: name of it right now, but there's a cameroon that's

19
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 1: part of this as a Julius Caesar cameroon.

20
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 2: And this and something else.

21
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 1: I buy that every chance I get, I'll put in

22
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: the comments what exactly the name of the three pack is.

23
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 2: But I love a cameraon wrapper and saw this.

24
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: But this is a three and a half by fifty

25
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 1: fingers molloy, which means are you ready? It's three and

26
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: a half inches long. That's always makes fingers molloy laugh.

27
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: And the ring age is the fifty at the diameter

28
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 1: of the cigar or how thick it is around again

29
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 1: with the laughter. I do not do cigars, this, moll

30
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: This is known as a dog walker ladies and gentlemen.

31
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: Something quick, something simple, in and out and done. But

32
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: it's like stripes and it's like going to Wisconsin. That's

33
00:01:56,080 --> 00:02:00,120
Speaker 1: what this cigar is. I never ever am that guy.

34
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: I smoke when I want to smoke, as I want

35
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: to smoke. I don't smoke for time.

36
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 3: So would you say, in a lot of ways, when

37
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 3: you refer to a dog walker, it's almost like a

38
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 3: cigarette lifestyle and a cigar.

39
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the correct I just hate the analysis, the analogy.

40
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 2: I hear it, but you're not wrong, right, I mean,

41
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 2: that's that's the part.

42
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: But that's how I feel others This is exactly what

43
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 1: they need as they need it.

44
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 2: They've got, you know, forty five.

45
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: Minutes for lunch or whatever it is, and they're just

46
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 1: gonna have a cigar. It's an early morning thing. And

47
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: then they gotta go to work, or they're going to church,

48
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 1: or they're going to here, or they're going to there,

49
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: the kid's soccer game, all those things. This is what

50
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,119
Speaker 1: you've got in between. I hear you. It has a purpose.

51
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 1: I am not a fan. I do not like these

52
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 1: these smaller length cigars. But since we try everything, since

53
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: it's J. C. Newman, and since it's Cameroon, I'm like, yeah,

54
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna do that. I if you could see and

55
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: take a look, the wick of the firecracker goes all

56
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: the way down. It's actually wrapped up in the band

57
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,959
Speaker 1: from the al button. I will take that if I

58
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: could get it, good Lord, get it off there, and

59
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: so you can see exactly how far down this thing goes.

60
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: It goes down like two inches of the cigar. It's

61
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: a three and a half inch cigar, maybe a little

62
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 1: bit longer or right there.

63
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 2: The weird part is you can pull this off, man.

64
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 1: You can pull it off if you want and just

65
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,079
Speaker 1: be like, there it is, you're gonna cut, or you're

66
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: gonna be cut if I oddly enough, my V cut

67
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: is totally gone. I looked everywhere. Maybe I never even

68
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 1: I used to have one. I don't have anymore.

69
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 2: So I'm straight cutting this.

70
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: As shallow as humanly possible, very very shallow cut.

71
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 2: I went on a little bit of an angle there to.

72
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: Give me as much surface as I can get without

73
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: taking away from the cigar. I would have V cut

74
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: into this to ensure I had better mouthfeel on it.

75
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: If I had the vcut wall so intensify the draw.

76
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 2: But I wasn't doing it for that. I was doing

77
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 2: it to save actual cigar.

78
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 3: I wouldn't call any of our cigar resources of a liar.

79
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 3: This doesn't seem like it's three and a half inches

80
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 3: to me, Good lord, what it seems like it's shorter

81
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 3: than that.

82
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: Well, they're telling me it's a three and a half

83
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 1: by fifty And it's not my job to argue with

84
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 1: the fine people at JC Newman, so I won't. The

85
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 1: question is does this fit your lifestyle?

86
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 2: Fingers more?

87
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 3: Listen, there are plenty of times not so much this year,

88
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,039
Speaker 3: because I don't know if you heard this or not, Tony,

89
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 3: I've been moving but what right. But when it's a nice,

90
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 3: cool summer evening and I'm getting ready to throw some

91
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 3: steaks on the grill, I do like to have something

92
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 3: like this where I only have half hour. I want

93
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 3: a cigar. It's my only chance of the day to

94
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 3: be able to smoke a cigar. I do like something

95
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 3: like this.

96
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 2: So the the el.

97
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 1: But tone is I'm gonna say this crudely of Jacon Newman.

98
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: Please don't yell at me, Drew. Uh, this is the

99
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: value line of of Jcon Newman. This pearladl Mar, a

100
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: baby pearlo Dulmar. More so, Uh, these are the lower

101
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:21,919
Speaker 1: cost on the.

102
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 2: Jason Newman side.

103
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 1: Then you can graduate into you know, uh, the Julius

104
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 1: Caesar and the Diamond the Maximus, and and go go

105
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: down that road Diamond crown, uh again a lot of

106
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: things and then a little bit above this brick house,

107
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:40,919
Speaker 1: things like that. It is a very pretty wrapper, uh brown,

108
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: nice brown, not a saddle, brown, not too orange, with

109
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: with flex of black in there. Certainly the construction is fine.

110
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 1: I would expect nothing less. And there is a pepper

111
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,159
Speaker 1: hit on the word go fingers Maloy on this cameroon,

112
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 1: which is kind of interesting. A pepper hit right from

113
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: the very beginning. That lets you know that it's there. Pepper,

114
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna say wood cedar right.

115
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 3: Off the bat That's exactly what I was gonna say,

116
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 3: pepper and cedar. Also, for it being only three and

117
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 3: a half inches, there is, oddly enough a little bit

118
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 3: of haf to this cigar.

119
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not gonna fly away, it's not gonna just

120
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: fall right out of your hand. The three and a

121
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: half by fifty this is the Elbaton firecracker from J. C.

122
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 2: Newman.

123
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: The firecracker design from United Cigars has a lot of

124
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 1: flavor right off the hit. Now, in most cigars, we

125
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: tell you take it and you break it into third's first, third, second, third,

126
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: final third, and you grab your notebook.

127
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 2: What you eat today, what'd you drink today?

128
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: All those things still apply, except you can't think of

129
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 1: a cigar three and a half like it'd be like

130
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:48,599
Speaker 1: a nub.

131
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 2: There's just no there's no way to do that in

132
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 2: the third.

133
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 1: So just write down the notes of the flavors, what

134
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: you're getting out of the cigar when you tried a

135
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 1: month from now, six months from now. Whatever that is,

136
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 1: You go back, you do it again, and then you

137
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 1: compare your notes to really get a through line, an idea.

138
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 1: What flavors you got out of this cigar and spicier

139
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 1: than I thought.

140
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, we've only well, we lit this up a minute ago.

141
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 3: We're already in the second third.

142
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 2: And that's just it. I want to see how far

143
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 2: it goes.

144
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: I have a backup if we go through these and

145
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:19,679
Speaker 1: we want to keep smoking.

146
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 2: I do have some backups.

147
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: But this is just one of those great examples of

148
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 1: I smoke the way I smoke. I am not here

149
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: to tell people that they have to smoke the way

150
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: I do it. You guys gotta do what's best for you.

151
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: You gotta you gotta feel the moment. You gotta know

152
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: your moment and know when you have time. And there

153
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: are times where you're like, man, if I just had

154
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: a cigar with me right now, that's a that is

155
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: a universal and there's not a person's like if I

156
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 1: had a cigar with me right now, but me, I

157
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: wouldn't care. If it was a Toro, I wouldn't care.

158
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,040

159
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: don't really do rabustos. I wouldn't care if it was

160
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: a Churchill if I had, if I was there the

161
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,720

162
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: some people. The question will be, fingers maloy, is this

163
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,280

Speaker 2: Oh?

165
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: That's interesting, right, because it's three and a half inches

166
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 1: and I if I had known it was ten dollars,

167

170
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 1: a valueless proposition. But now we're asking the question of

171
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: does it fit your life your lifestyle? Is that forty

172
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: five minutes worth the ten bucks? And the answer might

173
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 1: be maybe this is the elbatone cameroon wrapper from JC Newman.

210
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 3: my cup.

211
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 2: But what if you could have Maxwell House? Oh no,

212
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 2: I wouldn't touch that with a temper. What if? There?

213
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 2: But what if? Now? You do it with the name change?

214
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 1: Because Maxwell House will now be known as Duncan Maxwell Apartment.

215
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 2: Oh is this a thing? No, it's stick. It is.

216
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 3: They are trying Tony to relate with the people, the folks,

217
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,959
Speaker 3: Oh tell me more so, they announced that the name

218
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 3: will be changing for the first time one hundred and

219
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 3: thirty three years because you know, there is a problem nowadays,

220
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 3: Tony with affordable housing.

221
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 2: Oh is that right? Yes?

222
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 3: So, since nearly a third of Americans are now renting

223
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,439
Speaker 3: smaller places rather than purchasing full size homes, the coffee

224
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 3: giant wants to reflect that stat with a temporary rebrand.

225
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: You know what else would be a great name for

226
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 1: Maxwell House if you wanted a rebrand new coke?

227
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 2: This is this?

228
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 3: It admittedly is dumb, right, yes, But having said that,

229
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 3: I do have a question for you, because you are

230
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 3: much more of a I'm not going to say, a

231
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 3: coffee snob, but.

232
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 2: Snob in general. Now, I can go with that. I

233
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 2: can live with that. I sleep fine. As you know.

234
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 3: When I have my cup of coffee, I put a

235
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,719
Speaker 3: lot of schmuts in it. Yeah, I put a lot

236
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 3: of creamer, a lot of sugar, and top that with

237
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 3: a lot of creamer. So it isn't as important to

238
00:11:54,160 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 3: me to have the finest coffee bean in my coffee

239
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 3: cups because I'm putting all the schmuds in it.

240
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 2: You, on the other hand.

241
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: No, no, I go little schmutzee, But I do think

242
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: it matters. So so you you joke about the Folgers.

243
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 1: A quick story, and for the Folgers people who are listening,

244
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: my mother lives in the villages.

245
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 2: For the record, owns no pineapples. Oh my god, I

246
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 2: almost got the coffee out of fingers nose. Oh ah,

247
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 2: oh god, this could have been the greatest show ever.

248
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 1: I am so sorry, guys, I tried, I had the timing.

249
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 2: I was, Oh, that's disappointing.

250
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: Now did you laugh because it was funny or did

251
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 1: you laugh because your mother totally has.

252
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 2: A pine My mother?

253
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 3: Oh, I think you're talking about my mom talking about

254
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 3: your mother.

255
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm talking about my mom.

256
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: So she lives in the villages and in the independent

257
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: living facility which she lives, which she refers to as

258
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 1: the club. God, what a woman. There's coffee twenty four

259
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,200
Speaker 1: to seveny You go down any time you want and

260
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: get and get coffee, and they use soldiers and I've

261
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,200
Speaker 1: been there numerous times. She's drinking more coffee now than

262
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 1: she has in her entire life. The coffee is fantastic.

263
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: The coffee is fantastic.

264
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on.

265
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 1: So don't let's not mock the Maxwell house, apartment, condo, townhouse,

266
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,319
Speaker 1: Airbnb that's going on here.

267
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 3: But there are a lot of things that go into

268
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 3: a fine cup of coffee. And it's not just the grounds.

269
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 3: So first, I mean, it starts where it starts. You

270
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 3: do start with the coffee.

271
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 2: The real story.

272
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 1: We can speak to some experts about it because there

273
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 1: are people who do this. They're like really focused on this.

274
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: They can you know, they do the cuppings and they

275
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 1: can really get an idea where these beans are from,

276
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: and they can really get the notes.

277
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 2: It's about the heat of the water. The problem is

278
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 2: not always your coffee, right.

279
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 1: It takes people who have talent and real palettes to

280
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 1: be able to get that level of discerning, certainly if

281
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: you're already buying ground, right, it's the heat of the water.

282
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: It's whether or not you're keeping your coffee maker clean

283
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:18,680
Speaker 1: or you're descaling it coffee. Oh crap, I have a Technoborm.

284
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Technovorm, you're making No, it's the Mocha Master

285
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 1: from Technovorm, and the heat on that thing is perfect.

286
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, the coffee is sensational. Now, before that,

287
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 1: I had a Ninja. I thought it did brilliant with coffee.

288
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: I thought I did an excellent cup of coffee. But

289
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 1: the problem is, if you live your life in a

290
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 1: world of currig I'm not gonna be anti curig here.

291
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 1: If you live your life in the world of coffee pods,

292
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 1: I don't actually think there is a way for you

293
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 1: to get good coffee.

294
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 3: See, my machine is made by a gentleman by the

295
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 3: name of mister Coffee. Oh right, And if you are

296
00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 3: a mister Coffee, I would assume you're a coffee act.

297
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 3: But you bring up an interesting point about tempera if.

298
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 4: It was Professor Coffee, maybe you bring up an interesting

299
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 4: point about temperature because it got me thinking to some

300
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 4: of these places that they have to have their coffee

301
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 4: be the temperature of molten lava?

302
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 2: Right? Is that on purpose?

303
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 3: Because they know that maybe their coffee grounds are not

304
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 3: the best in the world, and they think, you know what,

305
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 3: if I scald this person's tongue, it really doesn't matter.

306
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 2: About how good our coffee. I think two things are true.

307
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 1: Number One, the reason they engage such heat is that

308
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 1: you get far less complaints than if the coffee is

309
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 1: too cold, So that's number one. Number Two, I think

310
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: it's because they may know that the average age of

311
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 1: their coffee drinker is older, and the older you get,

312
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 1: for some reason, you want things at about fourteen thousand degrees.

313
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 3: You are not kidding.

314
00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 1: Did my father rests his soul before he died, Everything

315
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: got sent back, Everything was in a microwave. It was

316
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: It was ridiculous to the point of to the point

317
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 1: of ridiculous.

318
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 3: I've never met someone in my entire life that is

319
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 3: so obsessed with the temperature and the heat of his

320
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 3: food than Fingers Moloi, Senior. I'm convinced if he could,

321
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 3: he would actually eat his dinner inside of an oven,

322
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 3: just to make sure that that that that food stays hot.

323
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 2: It is amazing to me.

324
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 1: There is some kind of weird thing that happens. I

325
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: am not old enough to know this, that's right, young

326
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: and vibrant, but it happens, and it happens all the time,

327
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,680
Speaker 1: and it's just it's it's super weird. So that's why

328
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 1: I think it happens that way, because you also have

329
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 1: more time to work it. You can let it cool

330
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: down a little bit cold. You're not going hot enough.

331
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 1: That's that's the absolute worst.

332
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 3: And when it comes to heat, it really activates those

333
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 3: foltures crystals.

334
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 2: It's very good. But yes, the coffee matters, The bean matters.

335
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,120
Speaker 2: The grind matters.

336
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 1: If you're using beans, you're grinding them right, how coarse

337
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 1: or how fine you're going Again, your coffee maker is

338
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: gonna be able to decide that. And then it's really

339
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 1: about It is about the machine. It is about the

340
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 1: heat of the water. I mean, that's a huge part

341
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: of it.

342
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 3: I would like to know why I would want my

343
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 3: grounds more coarse.

344
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 2: What about the idea of surface area? Oh, there you go,

345
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 2: that's what I did.

346
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, eat, drink smoking is your cigar, bourbon foody extravaganza.

347
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,680
Speaker 1: I'm Tony Katz. That is Fingers molloy smoking the Elbatone

348
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: from J. C.

349
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:38,879
Speaker 2: Newman.

00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 1: This is the Firecracker, which is a style of cigar

351
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 1: license from United Cigars.

352
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 2: With that wick looks like a fuse.

353
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 1: This is a three and a half by fifty your

354
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 1: dog walker something a quick smoke, an easy smoke comes

355
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 1: in at ten dollars. There is a fair amount of

356
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: spice going on in this cigar. There's definitely some cedar

357
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 1: going on in the cigar. There's a little bit of

358
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,399
Speaker 1: making salive, a little bit of sweetness going on with

359
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: this as well as a black pepper. You know, it's

360
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,159
Speaker 1: not hitting the roof, it's more in the tongue and

361
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 1: in the cheek there, but it's it's smoking lovely fingers.

362
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

363
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 3: I was going to add that you mentioned a sweetness.

364
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,919
Speaker 3: It was kind of like a nuttiness for me. But

365
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:27,639
Speaker 3: that cedar is there, that pepper is definitely there. Really

366
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:32,120
Speaker 3: a nice easy draw, a great hand feel. I could

367
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 3: totally see having one of these when you're throwing some

368
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 3: steaks on the grill. You only got a half hour

369
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 3: to smoke a cigar. This this, this would definitely scratch that itch.

370
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 3: I'm just still tossing around whether I would buy it

371
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 3: at that price.

372
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 1: Point ten dollars. It's three dollars too much, right, Yeah,

373
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 1: that's how it feels. For a three and a half

374
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,440
Speaker 1: inch cigar, that ten dollars gets you into the Wait

375
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,159
Speaker 1: a second, Wait a second, Do I realize my on

376
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 1: this or could I spend it on a robusto five

377
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 1: inches toro six inches and get more bang for the buck.

378
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 1: And that's really a question of who are you, what

379
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 1: is your time? What kind of flavors are you looking for?

380
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:12,119
Speaker 2: Et cetera.

381
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 1: Is it about the dollar to the to the time

382
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:17,439
Speaker 1: or is it about the dollar to the quality of

383
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 1: the moment you have? And that's and that really something

384
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,680
Speaker 1: only you can decide. What you said, scratch an inch,

385
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 1: which you did earlier today. So Fingers Maloy in the

386
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: midst of the moving that has taken him nine years

387
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:35,360
Speaker 1: to move, Fingers Maloy had uh had had?

388
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 4: What?

389
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 2: What surgery did you have? Did you have the glaucoma? No?

390
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 2: The gout? What is yes?

391
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 3: I had eye go out? This is what I had? Yes, No,

392
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,719
Speaker 3: I had cataract surgery. Right, because you're pretty blind. I

393
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 3: will in my right eye. Yes, well not anymore, though

394
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:55,639
Speaker 3: they did an outstanding job. They put in a lens

395
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 3: that will let me see both a far away and

396
00:19:58,440 --> 00:19:58,919
Speaker 3: close up.

397
00:19:59,200 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 1: Right.

398
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 3: I had a choice of just getting a lens where

399
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 3: I could see far away, but then I'd always have

400
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 3: to carry readers around, which sounded like a big pain

401
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 3: in the neck. So I bumped up and got the

402
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:13,359
Speaker 3: the deluxe lens with the with the the wax and

403
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 3: the and the one hour martinizing.

404
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:17,720
Speaker 2: And now I can see the fire.

405
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:19,919
Speaker 3: Yes, I got the clear coat too, and so I

406
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 3: can see far away and close up. But I itched

407
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 3: my eye today and it's only two days out from surgery.

408
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,400
Speaker 3: I rubbed it, I rubbed it, and h my eye

409
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,919
Speaker 3: got angry. And what's even worse is so you have

410
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,400
Speaker 3: a one day follow up. You go in the next day,

411
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 3: you go see your eye doctor. And you know, I

412
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:39,199
Speaker 3: have glasses on now because both eyes have problems, but

413
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 3: the left eye isn't nearly as bad. So what they

414
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,639
Speaker 3: do when you have cataract surgery is once the.

415
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,159
Speaker 2: They do fix put it right back in. Yes, just

416
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 2: like that.

417
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 3: With also's fresh car, new car smell in the eye.

418
00:20:55,320 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 3: But they they took the prescription lens out of my

419
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 3: right eye and my eyeglasses, and they put in a

420
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 3: clear lens that lasted seven hours. So if you're watching

421
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:10,520
Speaker 3: us on YouTube right now, you'll be able to see

422
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:12,879
Speaker 3: me with glasses on with only one lens.

423
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, the lens is missing in his right eye, but

424
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 1: he's still wearing the glasses because his left eye isn't

425
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: great and they only do one eye at a time.

426
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:24,160
Speaker 2: Yes, but you can see. I mean, it's incredible.

427
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 3: It was unreal, Like right now, I took my glasses off,

428
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 3: and it takes your brain a little while to adjust,

429
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 3: Like right now, you're really blurry. But if I get

430
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 3: two minutes without my glasses on, I can easily read

431
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 3: the computer screen in front of me, just a little

432
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:45,400
Speaker 3: bit blurry. Simply amazing what they can do nowadays. And

433
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 3: I'm really grateful because it was really bothering me that

434
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:50,439
Speaker 3: I couldn't see.

435
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 1: The real story though, when you're doing this, is that

436
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,160
Speaker 1: you don't get knocked out. You're awake, and they put

437
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,640
Speaker 1: a bunch of goo in your eyes, yes, and then

438
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,160
Speaker 1: they go in there and they slice you up, and

439
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 1: you see it, don't you. You see the knife coming

440
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,160
Speaker 1: at you at the end of days. You know, did

441
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:09,359
Speaker 1: you did you wish your children?

442
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 3: Well, no, it wasn't that bad. But it's really interesting.

443
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 3: They get you in the pre op area, and you're

444
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 3: in the pre op area with like seven other patients,

445
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 3: and it feels like they just zip right through you,

446
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 3: all seven people in no time flat. So they give

447
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:30,439
Speaker 3: you an antiseptic eye drop to prevent infection, and then

448
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 3: they put this goop in your eye that numbs the eye,

449
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 3: and it's like they put Elmer's glue in your eyes.

450
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 3: You can't see, you can still see, you still see, yeah,

451
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 3: And then they put an IV in you and then

452
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 3: they top you off just to make you feel a

453
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:48,920
Speaker 3: little happy, just a little edge off, a little edge off.

454
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,919
Speaker 3: And then they wheeled me into the room. I'm in

455
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 3: the surgery center there. I'm in the operating room and

456
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 3: the nurses are talking, you know, about the kids whatever,

457
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 3: not mine, talking about their kids. And for about like

458
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 3: ten minutes, the surgeon came in. They tape my head

459
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,200
Speaker 3: down too. They tape your head down to the table.

460
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,199
Speaker 3: Now I have two reasons why I'm out. This is

461
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 3: this is I listen. I saw a clockwork orange. This

462
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 3: isn't gonna work. Yeah, they also said that the safety

463
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 3: word was pineapple. But they they take.

464
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 2: Twice in one show.

465
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 3: So they they they tape your head, they tie your

466
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 3: head down so you can't move, and then they've got

467
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 3: a very bright light in your eye so you can't

468
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 3: see anything.

469
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 2: So I'm just looking to my right. It was my

470
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 2: right eye.

471
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 3: My my head was tilted to the side, and you

472
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 3: just got this big bright light in there and you

473
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 3: can't feel anything. Tony, I'm not exactly no, nothing, nothing,

474
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 3: I'm not buying. I'm telling you right now. Maybe three

475
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 3: minutes he was done, went in. They do a two

476
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:02,919
Speaker 3: to three millimeter incision into your eye. They they vacuum

477
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 3: the old lens out and then they slip a new

478
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 3: lens in. They pass you on your head, they will

479
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 3: you out. They wheel the next person in and I'm

480
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 3: I'm assuming it's the same surgeon because it is boom, boom, boom,

481
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 3: one right after another.

482
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 2: It's crazy. Three minutes. No chance that sounds.

483
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 1: There is no medieval torture I can think of that

484
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 1: could be worse.

485
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,679
Speaker 3: But listen to me when I when I say you

486
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:31,679
Speaker 3: say no chance. Now, when I took my glasses off

487
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,640
Speaker 3: and did the eye test before I had this done.

488
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 3: They gave me the eye chart. I couldn't. It was

489
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 3: just a big blob. And the doctor said to me

490
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 3: at that point, he said, this is the time when

491
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 3: I can't improve your eyesight with lenses. Your cataract surgery

492
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 3: has to happen.

493
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 2: I can.

494
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,400
Speaker 3: I can read the chart down to little tiny letters. Now,

495
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,120
Speaker 3: so you say not a chance, But there's no chance.

496
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 2: I can be awake for to be out out. I

497
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:07,919
Speaker 2: can't know what's happening. I can't. There's just I'm telling

498
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:08,680
Speaker 2: you right now.

499
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 3: Have you ever been put in that situation where they

500
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 3: give you just a taste, just a taste of that anesthesia.

501
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,640
Speaker 3: I don't even know if it's it was technically anesthesia.

502
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,159
Speaker 2: It just had the surgery on my arm when I

503
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 2: tore my bicep.

504
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,679
Speaker 1: Yes, and I basically got anesthesia twice, once for the

505
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:27,360
Speaker 1: nerve block and then once for the surgery.

506
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 2: And I got the Michael Jackson propofol. Wow.

507
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:39,119
Speaker 1: Wow, oh my god, I felt I felt nothing but

508
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 1: the warm embrace of the Lord.

509
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

510
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 1: Because you do, they do the nerve block and you

511
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 1: wake back up and I'm there, I'm in, I'm not

512
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: I'm in the pre op and I was like I

513
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 1: just I was down and I was back up and

514
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh okay.

515
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 3: But it wasn't a situation where it was like the

516
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 3: one video in Metallica where you're just.

517
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no no. It was it was beautiful.

518
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 1: And then and then I felt a small press on

519
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 1: my forehead and it was a smooch, and I knew

520
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 1: everything was going to be okay.

521
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 2: That's the way I have to feel.

522
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 1: If there are gonna be any surgeries, anything that involves

523
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 1: cutting of this glorious body, there is going to have

524
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:20,920
Speaker 1: to be me knocked out.

525
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 3: I can tell you right now. The worst part of

526
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 3: the procedure was the antiseptic drops in the eye. It

527
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,679
Speaker 3: was like they put battery acid in my eyes. The

528
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 3: actual procedure itself, I if I felt light pressure. I

529
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,199
Speaker 3: don't even remember it. That was a breeze. And like

530
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 3: I said, two to three minutes done. And then I

531
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,640
Speaker 3: could see and you weren't blinking. Now I held your eye.

532
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 3: They hold your eye open, Yeah, they used you could

533
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 3: feel them. They used players. Were they talking to you, yes?

534
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:50,880
Speaker 3: Are you talking back?

535
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:52,600
Speaker 2: No? No?

536
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:54,919
Speaker 3: I was not talking back, But I was wearing a

537
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 3: lovely Detroit Lion shirt and they started singing the fight song.

538
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: You didn't go, you didn't change into the smock, no

539
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 1: full close.

540
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 2: I even have my shoes on.

541
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: Honestly, this can't be legal, no way. So much discussion

542
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,359
Speaker 1: of Fingers Malloy's eye, which it does look a.

543
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 3: Little red, but are your eyes blue green? I never

544
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,920
Speaker 3: noticed some people get lost in my eyes?

545
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, is that right?

546
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:28,160
Speaker 3: That's true.

547
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 2: That's what I was told once. Huh, pity for.

548
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 1: Them, tea drink smoke. I'm Tony Katz. That is Fingers malloy.

549
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 1: We we were so into his eyes. We did not

550
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 1: discuss the news of the week, Tony.

551
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 3: So this is exciting news for people who like ninety sitcoms.

552
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:53,159
Speaker 3: CBS has announced that they are going to air and

553
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:57,640
Speaker 3: Everybody Loves Raymond Reunion in November. CBS is calling it

554
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 3: it's a thirtieth anniversary spat, even though apparently they're turning

555
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 3: this into their own dental lives. It's a bit early.

556
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 3: It's gonna make it that Actually it would be the

557
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 3: twenty ninth anniversary, but they're calling it the thirtieth anniversary. Tony,

558
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 3: Peter Boyle is dead, yes, Doris Roberts is dead, Yes,

559
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:21,760
Speaker 3: and they're doing a reunion. Well, yeah, because listen, Peter

560
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 3: Boyle and Doris Roberts, in many ways stole the show

561
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:30,399
Speaker 3: almost every week. Sure, so it is sad that they

562
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,440
Speaker 3: are no longer with us. I mean it's it would

563
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,880
Speaker 3: have been sad even if they weren't part of Everybody

564
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 3: Loves Raymond, because nobody wants to see anyone die, right,

565
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 3: I would hope not.

566
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 2: So that's sad.

567
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 3: But it's even sadder that they're going to be doing

568
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 3: this reunion without the two of them.

569
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 2: But Brod Garrett needed the money that bad.

570
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 3: Wow, did you see the Brad Garrett Ray Romano kind

571

00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 3: career much like you just mentioned there. He's like he

577
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,680

Speaker 3: memoriam cut he when he leaves us.

579

Speaker 2: You think it's only fourteen million dollars.

583
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,160

Speaker 1: know which end is up.

587
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:38,240

710
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:41,399
Speaker 3: about their coffee because they're looking at the economy, they're

711
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:45,200

712
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:48,440

Speaker 1: You would save so much. I have seen nothing that

719
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 1: proves that true. And it but if you're telling me

720
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 1: they're closing for this purpose, they must feel it somehow.

721
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 1: If they could also while they're restructuring, get the baristas

722
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,520

Speaker 2: Is it too much to ask?

729
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:42,040
Speaker 1: No?

730
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 3: Especially when you're spending nine dollars on that latte?

731
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:49,360
Speaker 2: Right, I'm buying silence. Let's make that happen
