1
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:11,800
Speaker 1: Don Peppine Garcia. Oh, my gosh, Pepin Peppine the Blue

2
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 1: was actually one of the first cigars that got me

3
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 1: into cigar smoking. There was the Casa Magna, the Colorado,

4
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 1: and the Esquiro. The Don Peppine and it has been

5
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 1: a long time since I've had one. And then a

6
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 1: local cigar lounge called Cigar Haven and Fisher's Indiana came

7
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: upon this with the red label. I said, I have

8
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 1: not seen this. This is a rebrand of one of

9
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 1: their more classic cigars. D drink Smoke. I'm Tony Katz.

10
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: That right there is America's favorite amateur drinker, Fingers molloy,

11
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 1: and this is the Don Peppine Garcia e rh Now,

12
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 1: this was the Alrey de los Habanos going back to

13
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 1: two thousand and five. It was his first cigar made

14
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: in the US, which is a very very cool story

15
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: coming out of Miami now being brought back. It actually

16
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: came back in twenty twenty four, but this is the

17
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,680
Speaker 1: first time I have seen this. This is a Toro

18
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: six by fifty two, which means it's six inches long.

19
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: Tee always makes fingers well, I laugh. And the ring

20
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 1: age of fifty two, the diameter of the cigar, or

21
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,639
Speaker 1: how thick it is around tee again with the laughter.

22
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 1: A sixty four ring gauge is a full one inch round.

23
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: Before I get into the rapper. Here this Ecuadorian, this

24
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 1: Simata Risotto. I think it's Ecuadorian sumatra risatto. That feels

25
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: very very good in the hand like that. I don't

26
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: feel like it's too much. I feel like it's there,

27
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: it's present. I'm aware of that.

28
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 2: I like this hand feel quite a bit fingers more

29
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 2: ID Two, I was struck by two things upon lighting this.

30
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 2: And we're just into the first third of the first

31
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: third of the cigar, Tony, and it is the half

32
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: that you're referring to. But then also how easy to

33
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 2: draw is and the amount of smoke that is coming

34
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 2: off of the cigar. Very happy with everything so far,

35
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 2: so and you're just lighting you on.

36
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: I know, I know what's your deal with this? I

37
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,640
Speaker 1: don't know. Why do I wait till the show starts

38
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 1: to light? I don't I don't have a great answer

39
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: for that. I don't actually know. This is an Ecuadorian

40
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: sumatra a rapper, so it's a Samatra Risotto rapper. So

41
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 1: you see this on the the La Gloria Kubana siri Are,

42
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: which is a big, big smoke. You see this on

43
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 1: the eby Coreo. I think we've done this cigar, the

44
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: La Historia. I think we've done that cigar, and not

45
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: too long ago. We smoke a lot of cigars. Sometimes

46
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 1: I do forget the Rocky Patel nineteen ninety has. I

47
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 1: believe this rapper on it, and so does Alec Bradley.

48
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: Bradley the striker Striker, Striker, striker striker, the Persando Persando, Prinsado, Prinsado,

49
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,359
Speaker 1: that has this rappers as well. So you've got a

50
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,800
Speaker 1: little bit of the red in there. You've got a

51
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: nice bit of oil. You can see the leaf, but

52
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: it's not overlea vany. It is a big flavor. Got

53
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: definitely got some spice, kind of wrapper fingers. You've been

54
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: smoking a little bit more than me. You talk about

55
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 1: the pleasant smoke, What do you get enough?

56
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,839
Speaker 2: Well, you already touched on it. There is a nice

57
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 2: bit of spice coming off of this stick as we

58
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 2: first lit it, and then also a nice bit of

59
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 2: cedar as well.

60
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, I'm not going I'm more wood than I

61
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: can be. Pick out cedar and I'll go with you

62
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: on that. But that is really present on the tongue,

63
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: like like tip all the way through the tongue. It's

64
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: really right there laying down.

65
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 2: You know how I started to get really good at

66
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 2: picking up cedar notes versus generic wood notes. Yes, I

67
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 2: had a really cheap humidor. Okay, first humidor I got right.

68
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 2: I opened it up when I knew I wasn't gonna

69
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 2: use it anymore, and I just started licking it.

70
00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: Is that right?

71
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I did. Huh, exactly how it went down?

72
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 2: And now cedar just like that.

73
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I take your word for it. What's also

74
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: interesting here is that it's not liquorice, but there really

75
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: is this almost tangy note that that's kind of sticking

76
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: with it. So the spice is there and I actually

77
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: feel it on the lips. That wood is there, Actually

78
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 1: it's on the tongue. And then there is this, Uh.

79
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 1: The guys over at Holts, which is a nice place

80
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 1: to get cigars Holts dot com h O L t

81
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 1: S they talk about it as a niece. I'm like,

82
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: that's that's an interesting way to put it. I'm sorry,

83
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: what a niece? A n I s it? Why is

84
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 1: it every time we mentioned a big word, you get scared.

85
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 2: I wouldn't say scared, just inquisitive, Tony. I feel like

86
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 2: part of Ehrink smoke is we all get together and

87
00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:58,919
Speaker 2: we enjoy a cigar.

88
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: We also learn a little something. So I wanted to

89
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 1: make sure I was right, and I am right because

90
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: a niece would have kind of a licorice flavoring to it. Okay,

91
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: So I don't get that because I think that would

92
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: be jarring for me. I'm not a liquorice guy. Twizzlers

93
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: are not liquorice. That they could say all they want,

94
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,919
Speaker 1: it's not, but it's so, it's it's there. There's something

95
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,679
Speaker 1: almost if I was talking about food like a new mommy,

96
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: like there's a there's a feel going on, but I

97
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 1: can't quite it's it's not. I would not call it

98
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:32,799
Speaker 1: a niece.

99
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 2: So there.

100
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: I don't know what those guys over there at Holds

101
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 1: how how they got to that one. I'd love to know,

102
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: if you're listening Holds dot com, let us know how

103
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: you got that. Well.

104
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 2: You know, as you've said on several occasions, everybody's palate

105
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 2: is different and things hit people in different ways. For me,

106
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 2: I am just getting that cedar note and that spice.

107
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 2: For me, it is all over the mouth, between the

108
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,159
Speaker 2: cheek and gum, a little pinch, I mean, on the roof.

109
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: Of the mouth, all over. What's super interesting is that

110
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: I was spice bomb. I was expecting almost a red

111
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 1: white pepper explosion. No what I have. I almost want

112
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 1: to call it a little bit of heat, But you're right,

113
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: it's everywhere, But it isn't. It isn't a punch in

114
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: the face. It's a full coating and I think that's

115
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,559
Speaker 1: a very different kind of experience. Yeah, that's I believe

116
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 1: that's fair to say. I thank god it.

117
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,280
Speaker 2: What I'm going to be interested in is, you know

118
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 2: often when we talk about cigars like this where it

119
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 2: has a nice bit of spice at the light, is

120
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 2: if it really does dissipate or we do get used

121
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 2: to it over a period of time.

122
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,160
Speaker 1: I'm going to bet I will bet money right now.

123
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 1: I have never had the cigar in my life from

124
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 1: Don Pepine Garcia. This is the erh you want to

125
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: grab as we're doing the Toro the six by fifty two.

126
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: I will bet you all the money in my pocket

127
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,479
Speaker 1: versus all the money in your pocket that this spice

128
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: is going to be with us all the way through

129
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: the smoke.

130
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 2: You want to put money on it, Well, all the

131
00:06:58,440 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 2: money in my pocket right now?

132
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 1: All the money? Do you accept diners club? Do I do? I?

133
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: You better believe I do. You want to grab your

134
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: notebooks right What did you eat today? What did you

135
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: drink day? You want to write all that down in

136
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: your notebook. This is what you're smoking the Don Papingarcia

137
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: RH six by fifty two. What'd you eat today? What

138
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: did you drink today? What is the weather finally cooling

139
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 1: down in Indianapolis, Indiana? The humidity the whole summer has

140
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: been humid, suck. Yeah.

141
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 2: I actually enjoyed a two cigars on the back deck

142
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 2: this week, and that's the first time I've been able

143
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 2: to do that since April.

144
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 1: It's been awful. So this has been very nice. All

145
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: those things affect the palette, and you want to write

146
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: that down because that way you can kind of get

147
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: an idea and then break the cigar up into thirds first, third, second, third,

148
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: final third and write down the flavors you get out

149
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 1: of each third. What is it that you're getting out

150
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: of the cigar? And when you then smoke that cigar

151
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: a month later, six months later, whatever it is, you

152
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: do it again. Compare your notes. That's your through line.

153
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: That's really what you're getting out of the cigar. I

154
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: recommend it highly. This show is my notebook. That much

155
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:15,160

359
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 1: rebrand of a cigar that was the first cigar he

360
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 1: made and coming to in in in the US when

361
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: they were they're based in Miami, I believe in two

362
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 1: thousand and five, and this came back in twenty twenty four.

363
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: This is the Toro six by fifty two with that

364
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 1: Ecuadorian sumatra samata rosato a wrapper right there there is spice.

365
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 1: There is that that would cedar for fingers would for me,

366
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 1: this little bit of what is that other thing that

367
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 1: I haven't been able to put my finger on, But

368
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: so far I'll give you the call on this one.

369
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: The draw is exceptional, the the hand feel is terrific.

370
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 1: The spice does not overwhelm, which I wasn't expecting fingers.

371
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: I am very happy with the smoke. I am as well.

372
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 1: For me.

373
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,159
Speaker 2: Listen that whether that spice I've gotten used to it

374
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 2: or it has subsided a little, I don't know the

375
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 2: answer to that other than it's not hitting me like

376
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 2: it did in the first third. But it's still there

377
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 2: and it's still nice, and that cedar is still there.

378
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 2: I'm not getting much else off of this cigar right now.

379
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 2: I'm not getting any kind of sweetness? Am I getting

380
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,119
Speaker 2: anything about? You know a third note that you were

381
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 2: talking about? But having said that, it's been wonderful. The

382
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 2: draw continues to be a salad. It's been a low

383
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,440
Speaker 2: maintenance stick. Very happy with a cigar.

384
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: Where I think I differ is that I do think

385
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,440
Speaker 1: that there is you know, I keep talking about it's

386
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: like tangy, there is a little undercurrent of sweet. It's

387
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 1: not vanilla, it's not nutty, it's not creamy. It's it's

388
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,159
Speaker 1: not those things that we would normally talk about it.

389
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 1: I'm not that's not it. It's just there, is it? Earth?

390
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 1: Is it? Cocoa coffee? Something is happening And I called

391
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 1: it tanging before. It's kind of morphed a little bit.

392
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,639
Speaker 1: I just don't know what that is yet, but we

393
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 1: may get there and it could be what you're pairing

394
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 1: it with. Well, I've got die coke. Oh, I've got

395
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 1: die coke in here. I'm not doing a coffee in

396
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: this one.

397
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 2: And you're I think you're just water ice water, right,

398
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 2: which is also what's in my veins.

399
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: That's a tough guy. Fingers boy. Yes, this is the

400
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 1: don vaping garcia e r H Toro. Is this in

403
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 1: telling you that I really do not. I'm not a

404
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 1: natural spicy cigar smoker. It's not where I live and breathe.

405
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: It's not what I like. I I like coffees, I

406
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: like cocoats, I like leathers, I like Earth's. I love

407
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,879
Speaker 1: that nutty cream that we often talk about. This is

408
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 1: very nice this. You could now I should take it back.

409
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 1: If you're somebody who'd ekes spice, you could do this

410
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 1: on the daily. If you're somebody who can appreciate it, Yeah,

411
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 1: you can do this once or twice a week at

412
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: nine dollars and fifty cents all day. A bargain, quite

413
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:34,200
Speaker 1: literally a bargain at this price. And with the construction

414
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,639
Speaker 1: solid man, we did a straight cut on this. I

415
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 1: wonder if somebody did a punch on this, how intense

416
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 1: that would be interesting, Like if you really wanted to

417
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 1: build that up. Let me know. If you do that,

418
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 1: just just send us a send us an email Fingers

00:22:56,560 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 1: time fingers a ratio malloy for news of the week, Tony,

422
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 1: Oh god, why would you start it like that.

423
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:07,200
Speaker 2: I'm shocked. You may have a new coke marketing disaster

424
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty five, and it has to do with

425
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 2: Cracker Barrel. People are very upset and this they're stock

426
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 2: tanked after Cracker Barrel unveiled a new controversial logo. Your thoughts,

427
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 2: Tony on the new logo which it takes some of

428
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 2: that charm away from the old Country store restaurant. It

429
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:33,160
Speaker 2: just says cracker barrel. There's nothing, there's no illustrational image, nothing.

430
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 1: I want to say for the record, First, if you

431
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: don't know, the cracker barrel logo had a guy sitting

432
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 1: in a rocking chair. You know, they got the rocking

433
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 1: chairs out front there of the cracker barrel. And then

434
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 1: it had a barrel because you know, cracker barrel. And

435
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 1: then it said cracker barrel, and then it said old

436
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,160
Speaker 1: something store, Old country store, Old country store. They got

437
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: rid of everything else except the cracker barrel, same colors,

438
00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 1: same everything else, says cracker brow. And there is is

439
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:04,159
Speaker 1: a social media outrage. Good thing Fingers molloy monitors social

440
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 1: media outrage.

441
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,359
Speaker 2: Passion of mine to monitor social media outrage.

442
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,720
Speaker 1: That that's what he's been doing, monitoring the social media outrage.

443
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: And I'm here to tell you. Okay, oh remember remember you're.

00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:31,639
Speaker 1: blanke and moron, an absolute schmuck, every single influencer. You

447
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: won't believe what Cracker barrel did. You don't care what

448
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,880
Speaker 1: Cracker Barrel did. It's a freaking logo, Readers, they didn't

449
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,400
Speaker 1: make it look like Jaguar. It's the same colors, it's

450
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 1: the same font. There's nothing to this story. You're not outraged,

451
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 1: You're just begging for a click. Why don't you just

452
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 1: create interesting content and maybe somebody will show up? You

453
00:24:54,119 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 1: absolute freaks. Go play some Chinese checkers in Cracker Barrel.

454
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 1: Cracker so they got the game. You don't care about

455
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,479
Speaker 1: the logo. What you care is that eleven thirty at

456
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 1: night when you tried to check into that motel whatever

457
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 1: it was, and you realize that somebody was murdered in there.

00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 1: to get you some eggs and potatoes and maybe a

463
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 1: little bit of bacon. You don't care about the logo.

464
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 1: You never cared about the logo. These people fingers will only.

465
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: These people are terrible And I'm telling you right now

466
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 1: we need to open up the jails to let these

467
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 1: people in. Wow. Now, ask me what I think of

468
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 1: the TSA. I'm more disgusted with these people that I

469
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:44,639
Speaker 1: am the TSA.

470
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:50,360
Speaker 2: I will say this, first of all, I really don't

471
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 2: care about the logo, Thank you very Having said that,

472
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,080
Speaker 2: the new logo looks like something that would be on

473
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 2: a block of cheese.

474
00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:01,119
Speaker 1: Sure, isn't that what? You don't have a cheese on

475
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 1: a cracker? You know where you get the cracker from

476
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:09,199
Speaker 1: a barrel. It all fits. So this is something that.

477
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 2: I'm posing this question and I wouldn't have thought it

478
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,119
Speaker 2: until this whole outrage thing happened. And you may be correct,

479
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 2: maybe it's just a bunch of people outrage mining and

480
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:22,120
Speaker 2: nobody really cares.

481
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 1: No one cares at all.

482
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 2: But if you are a person that lives a cracker

483
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 2: barrel lifestyle where you need all the cracker barrel merch

484
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 2: you can get your hands on, and they change the

485
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 2: logo on you, and you loved that logo for a

486
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 2: long time, and you had a passion for the cracker

487
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 2: barrel logo while you were living your cracker barrel lifestyle,

488
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 2: I could see where that would be a jolt to

489
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,399
Speaker 2: not only your lifestyle, but really your whole belief system.

490
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 1: By the way. The stock didn't tank. It went down.

491
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: Three Bucks tanked, It didn't tank. These people are ridiculous.

492
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 2: You won't believe what happened after that.

493
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 1: Be sure to tune in for Finger's reaction video. Check

494
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 1: that out on the YouTube. If you didn't know by now,

495
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 1: Fingers malloy is a joyless man. That's not true. That's true.

496
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:16,120
Speaker 1: That's not true. It's not true.

497
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 2: Every time you and I get ready to do eat

498
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,159
Speaker 2: drink smoke, I look at you and the first thing

499
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 2: I say to you is got joy.

500
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not that's not what happens. It's eat drink smoke.

501
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:34,479
Speaker 1: I'm Tony Katz. That is America's favorite amateur drinker. Fingers molloy. Uh,

502
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 1: we we do when we when we get together, it's

503
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 1: good see each other. You know, we talk of course

504
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,120
Speaker 1: through the week, but when we get together, there's usually

505
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 1: just a moment of is everybody really this terrible? And

506
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 1: the answer comes back yes, yes, And it usually starts

507
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 1: with a conversation about how nobody knows how to do

508
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 1: their job anymore.

509
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 2: You're not kidding, No, you're not kidding.

510
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: It's this constant, constant thing. And so there's this list

511
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 1: because there's always a list with us that eat, drink

512
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 1: smoke from vegout mag dot com. This is not real

513
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: you you created this in your spare time.

514
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,640
Speaker 2: No, it's not That's not true at all. Vegout mag

515
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 2: dot veg outmag dot com is where I go to

516
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:25,880
Speaker 2: find joy.

517
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 1: So Fingers finds an article fifteen subtle habits of people

518
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 1: who become increasingly joyless as they age, and habit number one,

519
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: turning small annoyances into a worldview that's us.

520
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, I had a scar on my hands, so

521
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 2: I couldn't applaud.

522
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 1: Is that more you than me?

523
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 2: Or is that in different ways equal? It's equal? Oh,

524
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 2: there's I will I will say something like I had

525
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 2: terrible service at a gas station. I go there and

526
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 2: the hot dog roller is rolling, and yet there are

527
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 2: no hot dogs on the roller, And I'll say, everybody's

528
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 2: terrible at their job.

529
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 1: Right.

530
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 2: Let me give you the three examples this list gives.

531
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 2: A delayed train becomes the city is broken, Well, the

532
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 2: city has broken.

533
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: A rude waiter becomes people don't have manners anymore?

534
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 2: Were they really don't have any manners? Any tech becomes

535
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 2: everything's going downhill?

536
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 1: Ain't that the truth? This is the most accurate thing

537
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 1: I've ever read of my entire life.

538
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 2: You didn't you didn't see that. The author of this

539
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 2: piece is named Fingers Maloy.

540
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:48,239
Speaker 1: I swear to you for the past year longer longer, uh,

541
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 1: I would say, three times a month when we get

542
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: together do the show, Fingers Mloi says to me, everybody's

543
00:29:55,680 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 1: terrible at their job. And I've gotten to the point

544
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 1: where I don't ask, like what happens, because I don't

545
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 1: want to know. It's just it must be said in

546
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 1: order to have the soul cleansing experience that is eating

547
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,640
Speaker 1: smoking being part of eating smoke nation. And then he's

548
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 1: fine for at least two and a half hours, May

549
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 1: I say you can.

550
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 2: When this theme started about a year and a half ago,

551
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 2: of me saying everyone is terrible at their job, you

552
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 2: would say to me, Fingers, that's ridiculous. Eighty percent of

553
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 2: people know exactly what they're doing at their job. And

554
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 2: then slowly, over the past year and a half, I've

555
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 2: been chipping away at that number, and now he's right

556
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 2: along with me where he says everybody's terrible at their job.

557
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 1: Not everybody is terrible at their job, but my god,

558
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 1: a lot of people are terrible at their job, not

559
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 1: a lot of people are very bad, and it's because

560
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 1: the very concept of the standard has been eliminated and

561
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 1: there is no consequence for being bad at the job.

562
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: There's just the thankfulness that somebody is there to stand

563
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 1: in the uniform and do the basic of approval or disapproval.

564
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:06,040
Speaker 2: Do you think also it's because there's less pride in

565
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 2: one's work, because in twenty twenty five, a lot of

566
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 2: people are at their job now instead of their career.

567
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 2: So there's less pride in it because it's just a

568
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 2: job and it's just I'm just punching a clock, and

569
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 2: I don't look at it as a career.

570
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: I mean, that's interesting, But I do ascribe to the

571
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 1: theory that there are no small parts, just small actors.

572
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 1: That the role that you play, the job that you have,

573
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 1: has to be done to a level I have tried

574
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 1: in my own children. Don't do the job as if

575
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 1: someone's watching. It doesn't matter if they're watching. Do the

576
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: job as it needs to be done, whether it's long work,

577
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 1: whether it's cleaning your room, or whether it's going to work.

578
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,479
Speaker 1: Early is on time and on time is late. If

579
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: you can't live by that, you're not going to have success.

580
00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: So maybe you're right. Maybe my viewpoint is to some

581
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:07,000
Speaker 1: antiquated and to some rare and some valuable, but it

582
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: certainly is not mainstreams right now. Maybe maybe you have

583
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 1: a point that they see it as this temporary thing

584
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 1: that fills the hours until they can doom scroll again

585
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: on Facebook. I don't. I don't know if that's the case,

586
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 1: but it's interesting.

587
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 2: And and now we have people who are filled with joy,

588
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 2: who have made careers out of doom, scrolling on their

589
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 2: on their phones, on on the on.

590
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 1: The list of uh, I'm growing my past. That fifteen

591
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 1: subtle habits that people who become increasingly joyless as they age,

592
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: collecting grievances like souvenirs. That was you rubbing your hands, Yes,

593
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: like hot dignity. It's my topic. This is where I

594
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 1: got my doctorate.

595
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 2: Nobody loves holding a grudge quite like me.

596
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 1: Are you a grudge holding? Do you hold any grudges

597
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 1: against me? Not yet?

598
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 2: But today he's still young. Oh, okay, I'll make it happen.

599
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 1: Uh. Yeah, I don't.

600
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,240
Speaker 2: Oh, I have a whole ledger of people who have

601
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 2: wronged me. Oh, it's all right, list, it's all on

602
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 2: a second, I've got a list. That's I thought that

603
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 2: was different. What does it mean to you to hold

604
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 2: a grudge? What is that actually?

605
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 1: Like?

606
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 2: Usually for me, it is when I'm holding a grudge

607
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 2: against someone, it is completely ignoring them when they walk

608
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 2: into a room and then do what everybody else does

609
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 2: and talk behind their back.

610
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 1: That's not just being bitchy.

611
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,840
Speaker 2: Well that's part of holding a grudge, is to be bitchy.

612
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I thought like, like holding a grudge was

613
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 1: I'm not talking to you you know what you did?

614
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 2: Oh see, but that would involve actually having a uh

615
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 2: some sort of a conversation with you.

616
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 1: See that's why I don't think you're holding a grudge.

617
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 1: You're just happy they did something horrific so you never

618
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 1: have to talk to them again because you didn't want

619
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 1: to talk to them in the first place. Oh, there

620
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 1: is that they're doing you a favor. Why not just

621
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,759
Speaker 1: say thanks, chum and go about your business. See that's

622
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,640
Speaker 1: what I like about you. You're a glass half full

623
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 1: kind of guy, always have been. Also on the list

624
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: of making a joyless outsourcing your mood to screens. There's

625
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:25,279
Speaker 1: nothing wrong with scrolling says veg out mag where do

626
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 1: you find how did you find this? How did you

627
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:28,400
Speaker 1: find this?

628
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 2: So, for those that don't know, eighty five percent of

629
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 2: the story is done in eat, rink, smoke are things

630
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:36,799
Speaker 2: that I find. I do a lot of the show prep,

631
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,800
Speaker 2: and so I go to the Google News for some

632
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 2: of my stuff, and they actually have a little tap

633
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 2: that says for you and veg out mads, here's a

634
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 2: story from vege out bag about people being joyless that

635
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,520
Speaker 2: seems to me right down your alley figures tell you.

636
00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,400
Speaker 1: I've never done Google News ever in my life. Oh

637
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,239
Speaker 1: all the show prep I've done for radio shows, the

638
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 1: local Indianapolis show, the nationally syndicated show TV stuff, I've

639
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:06,200
Speaker 1: never gone to Google News ever once. Never ever? Wow,

640
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,799
Speaker 1: where do you go? I go to ask jeeves. There

641
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 1: it is. While there's nothing wrong with scrolling, the trap

642
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 1: is letting your phone decide how you'll feel for the

643
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 1: next forty five minutes. Algorithms don't care if you leave

644
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 1: happy or heavy. If you start most mornings and end

645
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: most nights inside someone else's feed, you've handed your joy

646
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:30,239
Speaker 1: the keys and asked it to wait outside.

647
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,800
Speaker 2: Wait a minute, my Joy can handle keys.

648
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,279
Speaker 1: This article has taken my joy.

649
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 2: It makes me the writing it makes me want to

650
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:43,759
Speaker 2: veg out the right You're one.

651
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 1: More, one more making meaning a solo sport, and I'm like,

652
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 1: I don't know what that is. People who drift into

653
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:57,439
Speaker 1: joylessness often did a lot alone for a long time,

654
00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 1: solve problems, carried burdens, kept secret, Independence becomes identity. The

655
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 1: quiet ship back to joy starts with letting someone stand

656
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 1: next to you while you do your life.

657
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,880
Speaker 2: Since like being a guy, you take all of your

658
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 2: problems right, all of your burdens. You keep them a secret,

659
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:17,800
Speaker 2: and you cram them deep down inside of you and

660
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,239
Speaker 2: not share them with anyone. Right, you just sit in

661
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 2: a room alone, doom scrolling on your phone.

662
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:27,759
Speaker 1: That's is that the dream? God bless America, by the way,

663
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:33,320
Speaker 1: But the doomscrolling is just pure evil. That is the

664
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 1: thing that has to stop. You have no idea how

665
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 1: much of your life is missing just by just doing that.

666
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,560
Speaker 1: You're right, I should be watching more TV. Good point,

667
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 1: very good point. Bring on the rum. We said we

668
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 1: were trying new things, we said we were trying different things.

669
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,840
Speaker 1: I am a man of my word fingers from lloy What.

670
00:36:56,880 --> 00:37:00,480
Speaker 2: Am I a man of your word. Also, rum spelled

671
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 2: backwards is murr.

672
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 1: Look at us learning together. It's he drink smoke. I'm

673
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,719
Speaker 1: Tony Katz. That is America's favorite amateur drinker. Fingers MALOI. Yeah,

674
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,840
Speaker 1: rum is actually a very very good pairing for cigars.

675
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,759
Speaker 1: And this is I don't know if it's pyrote or

676
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,359
Speaker 1: is it pirate, but since it's a blend of nine

677
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 1: Caribbean RUMs, I'm going with pirate p y r at.

678
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:30,840
Speaker 1: This is pirate rum. The XO reserve in the super

679
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,480
Speaker 1: Squat bottle right there, the super Squat body, the super

680
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 1: Squat bottle coming in at eighty proof. No applause from

681
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: fingers LOOI. He only applies for things. Only applauds for

682
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 1: things that are one hundred proof or more. It is

683
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 1: a blend of RUMs that are aged up to sixteen years. Wow, Yeah,

684
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:55,920
Speaker 1: it's it's it's a very very interesting thing going on. Now,

685
00:37:55,960 --> 00:38:00,960
Speaker 1: how many RUMs it is? Et cetera. That's that's a debate.

686
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 1: I guess what I in going through this you'll know

687
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 1: four four He took a sniff. He decided the idea

688
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,759
Speaker 1: of RUMs, and you can get into dark RUMs and

689
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 1: things like that. You're talking about sugarcane. That is its basis.

690
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:25,160
Speaker 1: But what you're really talking about is still this idea

691
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 1: of where it's grown and how it comes together. This

692
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 1: one is interesting because in every bit of research that

693
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:36,280
Speaker 1: I did, this is all about having a hint of orange.

694
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,320
Speaker 1: Now you just took a sniff of this. This is

695
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:40,840
Speaker 1: not in the glen care and we have this in

696
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 1: the rocks glass right away. Do you get that orange?

697
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,239
Speaker 1: Here's what because it's got the look. Don't get me wrong.

698
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 1: The look has that bit of orange and there. It's

699
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 1: actually very attractive, a look not necessarily viscous as I

700
00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 1: see it.

701
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:01,759
Speaker 2: So we have, you know, checked out some reviews on this,

702
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,799
Speaker 2: what I always like to do before we come up

703
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 2: with our own opinions on something. And people have mentioned

704
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 2: a little citrus on the nose. To me, it's fruity

705
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:17,360
Speaker 2: and there's there's there's orange. Uh, you know, some have

706
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 2: said orange peel. I don't think it's oe. I think

707
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 2: it's just flat out orange. It's not like a zest

708
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 2: of orange or anything.

709
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, peel has more of a bitter kind of thing

710
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,879
Speaker 1: to it. I think you're right it it the rum

711
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 1: is underneath the orange is is a little bit popping,

712
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:35,239
Speaker 1: but not necessarily bright.

713
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,040
Speaker 2: You don't smell any alcohol at all. I mean which no,

714
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:42,040
Speaker 2: I mean we're not talking about one hundred and thirty

715
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 2: proof bourbon.

716
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 1: By the way, it's nine RUMs, not four o. Nine

717
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 1: different RUMs to create a pirate. Interestingly, if I have

718
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:53,320
Speaker 1: it right, this is part of patron the world of tequila.

719
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,279
Speaker 1: This is this is one of theirs. You know, things

720
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,760
Speaker 1: could have sold in between, but it is very pretty.

721
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 1: Fingers malloy. But pretty only goes so far, figures, well,

722
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:03,360
Speaker 1: are you ready for this?

723
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:09,279
Speaker 2: Pretty only goes so far? As my favorite song by Hole, Yes,

724
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 2: I've been ready for this all day.

725
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:13,160
Speaker 1: We are gonna still with the rum do the Kentucky chow.

726
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,360
Speaker 1: It's about taking that sip, moving in around the pallette,

727
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 1: getting an idea of what's going on. Sometimes, especially with bourbon,

728
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 1: I believe in two SIPs. The first zip to set

729
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:23,839
Speaker 1: the taste, but set and second sip tweel g an

730
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:28,360
Speaker 1: idea of the flavors. That's a that's a almost a

731
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 1: chortle out of you.

732
00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:33,320
Speaker 2: That's very nice. Really, that orange is there. There's also

733
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 2: there's other like a I don't want to say fruit cocktail,

734
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:42,719
Speaker 2: but it's it's fruity. It has definitely that. The the

735
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 2: orange is the star of the show that is there.

736
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:49,920
Speaker 2: And then there's a nice little bit of spice. It's wonderful.

737
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 2: This is definitely something for me that would be a

738
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,240
Speaker 2: dessert drink because it is awfully sweet.

739
00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:58,000
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's gonna be too sweet for you. Well,

740
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 1: let's find out. Pirate rum p y r a t I.

741
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 1: It has to be pirate right, Yes, that has to

742
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:07,800
Speaker 1: be the way it's pronounced, pirate p y r a t.

743
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:11,440
Speaker 1: This is the Exo Reserve Caribbean Spirit drink.

744
00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:15,880
Speaker 2: Oh, the spirit of Caribbe, the Caribbean lives inside of you.

745
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:21,359
Speaker 2: He's going in, ladies and gentlemen, he's doing the Caribbean Chump,

746
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:29,320
Speaker 2: the Memphis munch, all right, saying the swish.

747
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:37,799
Speaker 1: It's uh okay, it's got a bitter finish. It does

748
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 1: have a bitter finish. Yeah, um, that's wild. If I

749
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,400
Speaker 1: were to say to you, this is gonna sound so

750
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:50,040
Speaker 1: dumb and the experts are gonna be like cats. You

751
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:54,320
Speaker 1: know nothing, John Snow, is that a little port like

752
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 1: to you? That is not? There is more rum on

753
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 1: the than there is on the palette. I would agree

754
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:06,960
Speaker 1: with you there that is. And oddly enough, there's a

755
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 1: little bit of of heat sensation going on. I don't

756
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:11,239
Speaker 1: know what that is.

757
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 2: And it takes a while in yeah, the chest to

758
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:18,759
Speaker 2: hit belt, not really so much in the mouth. There

759
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:20,800
Speaker 2: isn't really much of a sting or anything. I was

760
00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 2: convinced there was no way this is going to a cube.

761
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:26,320
Speaker 2: And now this has to go to a cube. I

762
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:29,719
Speaker 2: don't know what I'm drinking. What I find interesting is

763
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 2: it's so sweet when it hits the palette and then

764
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:35,920
Speaker 2: you sit there for about twenty seconds and that finish,

765
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,880
Speaker 2: it just turns bitter and for me, not in a

766
00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:40,000
Speaker 2: bad way necessarily.

767
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 1: Okay, I don't get the sweet. You don't get I

768
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:47,400
Speaker 1: don't get the sweet at all. It's it's that's interesting.

769
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 1: It is what I the word that I want. It

770
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:56,040
Speaker 1: was the most unexpected thing from the discussion, the multiple RUMs,

771
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 1: the orange and the orange or orange peel. It's very

772
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:07,759
Speaker 1: elek on the palette. It it it's, it's, it's it's

773
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 1: near dainty. I was you know, rum right, You're thinking

774
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:13,880
Speaker 1: of something a little more hardy, you think a pirate

775
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 1: r and but that's what I that's my part of that. Again,

776
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 1: it's my pirate impression right there, but it's it's not that.

777
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:24,800
Speaker 1: It is not that at all. And that's why the

778
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: first thing that kind of hit me was this idea

779
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 1: of port that it just it it plays in this

780
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,840
Speaker 1: uniquely refined way. And I don't know if that is

781
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 1: the case, or this is just lacking the a flavor profile,

782
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,360
Speaker 1: or or I'm just I'm just not sophisticated enough in

783
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 1: this palette to be able to understand what it is

784
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 1: I'm drinking.

785
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:50,279
Speaker 2: So I guess it's not even fair to say do

786
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:52,839
Speaker 2: you like it versus dislike it? It sounds like there's

787
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:55,040
Speaker 2: not much there for you to even have an opinion

788
00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:57,120
Speaker 2: of it. Thus I must do it on a cube.

789
00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 1: I absolutely have to do it. Wait, I'll take a second.

790
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 1: He's going in again, Ladies and gentlemen.

791
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 2: I'm just floored that you're it's not hitting you sweet

792
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 2: at all, because I find it incredibly sweet. No, wow,

793
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 2: I mean I'm amazing.

794
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:14,640
Speaker 1: I get that there's a little bit sweetness there, but

795
00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,839
Speaker 1: that that weird heat build on an eighty proof from

796
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:22,800
Speaker 1: eighty proof, I that is that is super odd. That

797
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:24,240
Speaker 1: is a weird feeling.

798
00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's spice at the end, is

799
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:31,400
Speaker 2: what turns it after about I'm like, fifteen or twenty seconds,

800
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 2: you could this bitter flavor at the end, and it's

801
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:35,160
Speaker 2: it's again.

802
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:35,960
Speaker 1: It's not a complaint.

803
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:38,600
Speaker 2: I think it actually plays well with the fact that

804
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 2: it's so sweet at the beginning.

805
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,920
Speaker 1: I I am fifty to fifty on whether or not

806
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 1: that is garbage or miraculous. I have never been so

807
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 1: flummixed by a drink in my whole life. I think

808
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,239
Speaker 1: that you're you're right in it. I don't mind it,

809
00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:04,120
Speaker 1: but I don't know what it is. The Pirate Exo Reserve,

810
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:07,640
Speaker 1: I read the same more. Yeah, the Exo Pirate Rum

811
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:13,399
Speaker 1: Exo Reserve. I don't. I don't. I don't know what's

812
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:19,080
Speaker 1: happening here. I don't know. I'm very confused. If you

813
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,360
Speaker 1: have had this, tell us what you think, let us

814
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:30,280
Speaker 1: know what he drinks. Smokeshow dot com. Right here in Indianapolis, Indiana,

815
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 1: where we record, the humidity has finally broken and it's

816
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:38,840
Speaker 1: actually nice to sit outside and smoke a cigar or

817
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:41,520
Speaker 1: just I don't know, stand and not sweat. It has

818
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:46,960
Speaker 1: been delightful and this means that fall is coming. God

819
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:51,720
Speaker 1: and all of the pumpkin spice flavors that Fingers Melloy

820
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 1: loves will soon be on the shelves. It's just the

821
00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:58,840
Speaker 1: worst thing ever. It's he drinks smoke. I'm Tony Katz

822
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:02,920
Speaker 1: and that right there is Fingers Pumpkin malloy. Wow, that's

823
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:05,680
Speaker 1: what they call him down at the apothecary.

824
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:07,760
Speaker 2: Apothecary.

825
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,239
Speaker 1: It's what came to mind. I don't know, I don't

826
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:14,800
Speaker 1: know if that was it Duncan, which I was discussing

827
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 1: the whole thing about Duncan earlier. Where if we're discussing

828
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 1: coffee Duncan over Starbucks every day of the week and

829
00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:25,840
Speaker 1: twice on Sundays, I know this means Starbucks won't be

830
00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:27,840
Speaker 1: a sponsor. I just want to say, for the record,

831
00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:33,640
Speaker 1: don't care, don't sorry. I'll take your money. Yeah, yeah,

832
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:39,080
Speaker 1: I think you can sponsor Fingers Duncan over Starbucks and

833
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:44,799
Speaker 1: probably Tim Horton's over Duncan. Possibly that's a bold state. Yeah, yeah,

834
00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:45,320
Speaker 1: it is.

835
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,200
Speaker 2: Our Canadian listeners will be very happy.

836
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:50,160
Speaker 1: Ah yes, oh yes, all three of them. Eh. I

837
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:54,560
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong. I'm a Duncan guy. Tim Hortons

838
00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:57,800
Speaker 1: is very very well done and will I will state, clearly,

839
00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:01,439
Speaker 1: Tim Hortons has a better doughnut than unk him. I say,

840
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:04,520
Speaker 1: Duncan used to be a place for donuts. That's over.

841
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:09,239
Speaker 1: Duncan is a place for coffee. Oh, yes, for sure.

842
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:12,399
Speaker 2: When did you come to the realization in your mind

843
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:14,920
Speaker 2: that Duncan is no longer a place for donuts?

844
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:18,800
Speaker 1: The year was nineteen ninety six. Wow, a young Tony

845
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 1: Katz wanted to be a young Jack Klugman.

846
00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:26,759
Speaker 2: Wow, which was a year way way before nineteen ninety six.

847
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 1: Just over time, it went from wow, they made it

848
00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:36,160
Speaker 1: here to oh, this came from a commissary, to this

849
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:40,880
Speaker 1: was clearly frozen, to I'm probably gonna get diabetes from this.

850
00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:43,920
Speaker 1: I shouldn't have this. I believe that was the progression

851
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:48,279
Speaker 1: that we were all going for right there. But Tim

852
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,880
Speaker 1: Hortons DoD does very good work on the donuts. They

853
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 1: do great work on the coffee, So I can maybe

854
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:56,040
Speaker 1: maybe it's a push, Maybe tim Morton's is a little.

855
00:47:55,840 --> 00:48:01,080
Speaker 2: Bit buy Tim Horton's coffee in the grocery store, shrecon Wow,

856
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:02,640
Speaker 2: what an age we live in.

857
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:04,880
Speaker 1: You just you just gotta you gotta walk up to

858
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 1: the h to the person who runs the coffee. You say,

859
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:09,920
Speaker 1: you look at him, You look at him right in

860
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:14,120
Speaker 1: the eye, and you say, I love Alan Thick. Wow.

861
00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:18,839
Speaker 1: Immediately they hand you two bags of tim Morton's that's

862
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,840
Speaker 1: the hand you and and a shot glass of syrup.

863
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:25,120
Speaker 2: Way to go with the Alan Thick. And now everybody

864
00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:28,680
Speaker 2: else would probably have gone with Shatner, he said, no, I.

865
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 1: Didn't even think of Shatner. I would have gone with

866
00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:33,919
Speaker 1: Wayne Gretzky. I would have gone with Gretzky. But I decided, Nope,

867
00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:36,279
Speaker 1: We'll go full on Alan Thick.

868
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:36,920
Speaker 2: Uh.

869
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:40,479
Speaker 1: The people at Duncan, because that's what we're talking about.

870
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:45,800
Speaker 1: They are announcing their whole uh new list of menu items.

871
00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:49,480
Speaker 1: So first they've got a deal with Sabrina Carpenter the

872
00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 1: Daydream Refresher lineup. They've got a six dollar meal and

873
00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:58,400
Speaker 1: they will have the pumpkin munchkin, the pumpkin iced loaf,

874
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:02,879
Speaker 1: the pumpkin spice signature latte, and the pumpkin donut. Now

875
00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:08,360
Speaker 1: full disclosure, the pumpkin donut is very good. The pumpkin

876
00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:09,920
Speaker 1: donut is very By the way, do you have a

877
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 1: favorite type of donut? The next one, oh, good Man,

878
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:17,359
Speaker 1: good Man sour cream. I knew you're gonna go fritter.

879
00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:19,360
Speaker 1: I knew you were gonna go fritter because it's twice

880
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:21,520
Speaker 1: the size of a donut. It's true.

881
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,400
Speaker 2: If you can find an apple fritter the size of

882
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:26,440
Speaker 2: my head, that's when I know.

883
00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:29,240
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a good day. You're not picking donut.

884
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:32,200
Speaker 1: You're picking land mass exactly, is what you're doing. Sour

885
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 1: cream donut, like that kind of thing with the really

886
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:38,080
Speaker 1: cake feel and moist that's it. But it's got a

887
00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:40,800
Speaker 1: little crunch on the outside. Do you dip it in

888
00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:43,920
Speaker 1: the coffee? Oh? Sure, why not? There's no there's no

889
00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:44,560
Speaker 1: judging that.

890
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,560
Speaker 2: You don't mind having a little donut dander from your coffee.

891
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:53,560
Speaker 1: First of all, when you say it that way, you no, no,

892
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:59,640
Speaker 1: I don't mind having some donut floaters in my coffee

893
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:02,560
Speaker 1: at all. Good for you? You mind that.

894
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 2: That's how they raised people during World War Two. They said, listen, son, listen, uh,

895
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:11,640
Speaker 2: you don't have a problem. You shouldn't have a problem

896
00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:15,000
Speaker 2: with some donut remnants in your coffee. You should be

897
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:17,319
Speaker 2: lucky and you should be happy that you even had

898
00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:19,040
Speaker 2: that donut to begin with. And if it's good enough

899
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:21,560
Speaker 2: for those people during world War World War two. It's

900
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:22,359
Speaker 2: good enough for us.

901
00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:25,040
Speaker 1: Didn't you didn't have to live through the Blitzkrieg, So

902
00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,240
Speaker 1: it was more than just donut Dan druff in your coffee.

903
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:32,000
Speaker 2: This really took a turn, by the way, I think.

904
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:34,600
Speaker 2: And this is the first time in six years that

905
00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:37,080
Speaker 2: there's spent a Blitzkreek reference on the show.

906
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:41,279
Speaker 1: I know how it takes so long. You really do

907
00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:43,080
Speaker 1: have an issue with the pumpkin.

908
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:47,560
Speaker 2: You, Oh, I love pumpkin. Put a pumpkin pie in

909
00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:49,839
Speaker 2: front of me right now. I will eat the whole

910
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:52,319
Speaker 2: thing and and not feel bad about it at all.

911
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 2: You mentioned these glorious Oh you mentioned these these uh,

912
00:50:56,960 --> 00:50:59,800
Speaker 2: these new menu items. A pumpkin donut, a pumpkin loaf.

913
00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:01,960
Speaker 1: Right, I'm all in. You're fine with that.

914
00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:04,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, When you start getting into pumpkin in my coffee,

915
00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:09,319
Speaker 2: pumpkin in my sausage, pumpkin in the pumpkin, it's it's

916
00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:13,040
Speaker 2: it's too much, it's too much. Pumpkin pastries wonderful.

917
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:17,000
Speaker 1: How do you feel about Duncan's maple sugar bacon breakfast sandwich.

918
00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,279
Speaker 2: That sounds wonderful. I'll take six.

919
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:23,200
Speaker 1: Not too much. The maple bacon, it's not too much.

920
00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 1: Who are you talking to? I? Well, yeah, I guess.

921
00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:31,279
Speaker 1: Also the cereal and milk latte, now okay, hot or

922
00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:35,200
Speaker 1: ice combined, expressed it with confused milk made with real cereal?

923
00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:41,479
Speaker 2: So what kind of cereal? A grape nice bread?

924
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:47,120
Speaker 1: Yeah? You win, you win. I mean you look at you.

925
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:52,279
Speaker 2: Look at the picture of the cereal milk latte and

926
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:55,160
Speaker 2: is it fruit loops?

927
00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:57,239
Speaker 1: Is it? I don't know.

928
00:51:57,840 --> 00:51:59,720
Speaker 2: Is it one of the sugar? Is it sugar smacks?

929
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:01,280
Speaker 2: Sugar smacks? Milk?

930
00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:05,920
Speaker 1: Count me in? What's a sugar smack? Is that? What

931
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:06,400
Speaker 1: the frog?

932
00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:08,080
Speaker 2: No, it's a little bear.

933
00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:10,560
Speaker 1: What's the one with the frog?

934
00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:13,279
Speaker 2: Oh, you're right, it is a frog? Because there's also, uh,

935
00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:14,520
Speaker 2: what's the other one?

936
00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:17,520
Speaker 1: Was it literally called sugar smacks? Oh, you're gonna make

937
00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:20,760
Speaker 1: it wasn't called sugars. It had sugar and it smacked

938
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 1: your right in the insulin, but it wasn't called sugar smacks.

939
00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:29,760
Speaker 2: Was it sugar smacks? And there's uh, there was honey

940
00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:32,840
Speaker 2: smacks with the frog. Maybe it was honey smacks. I

941
00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:35,880
Speaker 2: thought there was sugar smacks. Maybe growing up in the eighties,

942
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:38,000
Speaker 2: I thought it was sugar smacks. But it's honey smacks,

943
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:38,959
Speaker 2: And you're right, it was the frog.

944
00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:44,080
Speaker 1: It wasn't called sugars, because now they're saying it, it

945
00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 1: sounds like it should have been sugar smacks. I did

946
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:48,960
Speaker 1: not have those.

947
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:53,240
Speaker 2: Yes, there was a time when Kellogg's made sugar smacks.

948
00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:55,000
Speaker 2: You know, whether they still make it or not, I

949
00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:57,680
Speaker 2: don't know. Maybe they overworked the frog and they said,

950
00:52:57,719 --> 00:52:59,960
Speaker 2: we got to cut out something here, so uh a frog,

951
00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 2: We'll give you a break on the sugar smacks and

952
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:03,640
Speaker 2: we'll just make honey smacks.

953
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:11,319
Speaker 1: I never had those applejacks. Yes, fruit loops absolutely see

954
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:14,760
Speaker 1: the greatest cereal of all time, honey nutcheios. Sugar smacks

955
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 1: are not now, according to AI, called honey smacks. The

956
00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:22,200
Speaker 1: name change happened in the eighties to downplay the high

957
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:26,560
Speaker 1: sugar content. People felt much more warm and fuzzy about

958
00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:30,000
Speaker 1: eating honey smacks instead of sugar smacks. People do that

959
00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:32,759
Speaker 1: all the time, don't they. Yeah, lie to themselves like no, no, no,

960
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:34,160
Speaker 1: it's health food now, it's fine.

961
00:53:34,719 --> 00:53:38,440
Speaker 2: I personally prefer high fruit toast corn syrup smacks.

962
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:42,359
Speaker 1: Those are those are delicious and stick to the rib.

963
00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:46,080
Speaker 1: So there's a full menu here, and they'll also have

964
00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:49,720
Speaker 1: the Chipotle loaded hash Browns, crispy Hashbrowns does with Chipotle

965
00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:51,840
Speaker 1: aoli top with crumbled bacon.

966
00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:54,919
Speaker 2: Just flush it down the toilet and eliminate the middle

967
00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:55,600
Speaker 2: man altogether.

968
00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:08,440
Speaker 1: Let's be honest. This is the drink smoke, eat, drink smoke.

969
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:11,640
Speaker 1: It is your cigar bourbon footy extravaganza. I'm Tony Katz.

973
00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:27,600

974
00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:29,840
Speaker 1: at the prices at a grocery store and seeing the

975
00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:31,840

1009
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:13,680
Speaker 1: very embarrassing right there, the Lray de los Habanos. This

1010
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:15,960
Speaker 1: was a cigar from two thousand and five. It has

00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:31,080
Speaker 1: any way overwhelming. It is still there. You've smoked yours

1017
00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:43,040
Speaker 1: done Nico Roguin, by the way, in the binder and

1018
00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:43,440
Speaker 1: the filler.

1019
00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:47,799
Speaker 2: Look how even that burn is tony. Those that are

1020
00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:50,279
Speaker 2: watching us on YouTube and rumble can see that. But

1021
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:52,560
Speaker 2: I'm all the way down to the nub and it

1022
00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:55,640
Speaker 2: has just been a great smoking experience.

1023
00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:58,600
Speaker 1: Absolutely excellent. And nine dollars and fifty cents makes it

1024
00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:01,960
Speaker 1: even better. Yeah, that's crazy. But we're doing the pirate

1025
00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:05,600
Speaker 1: rum p y r at. It is a blend of

1026
00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:10,360
Speaker 1: nine RUMs aged fifteen sixteen, eight years. In some cases

1027
00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:14,360
Speaker 1: it's it's it's interesting, it's eighty proof. It has this

1028
00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:19,960
Speaker 1: this orange note that everybody talks about and finger says

1029
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:22,280
Speaker 1: it's sweet. I'm like, I don't know what it is.

1030
00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:24,280
Speaker 1: I said it was calling for a cube. I put

1031
00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:26,880
Speaker 1: the cube in. We chatted for a little bit. Here

1032
00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:31,280
Speaker 1: we are now completely melted. Oh, completely melted. But here

1033
00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:31,520
Speaker 1: I go.

1034
00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:34,120
Speaker 2: He's going in ladies and gentlemen. He's gonna give it

1035
00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:37,680
Speaker 2: round three now, but this time with a melted cube.

1036
00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:39,560
Speaker 2: Tony has it changed at all?

1037
00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:43,160
Speaker 1: Yeah? For the battery, the hit was the top was

1038
00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:44,640
Speaker 1: the top of the pallet, the top of the roof

1039
00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:46,280
Speaker 1: of the mouth, the top of the roof of the mouth,

1040
00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:50,120
Speaker 1: the roof of the mouth. Definitely much more orange, much

1041
00:57:50,400 --> 00:57:53,800
Speaker 1: more orange. When it was neat, I couldn't figure out

1042
00:57:53,800 --> 00:57:55,880
Speaker 1: what I was drinking. I didn't understand. I couldn't make

1043
00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:58,960
Speaker 1: sense of the flavors. There's this bitterness that came at

1044
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:01,600
Speaker 1: the end that you talked about. I didn't understand why

1045
00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:04,480
Speaker 1: what was going on? Is this more like a port.

1046
00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:07,280
Speaker 1: This doesn't feel like rum. It still doesn't taste like rum.

1047
00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:11,760
Speaker 1: It still doesn't. I don't know what that flavor is.

1048
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:14,800
Speaker 1: And there is that bitter that comes on the finish,

1049
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:19,320
Speaker 1: and it's it's a series of it's not baking spice.

1050
00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:22,240
Speaker 1: That's not the best way to put it, but there

1051
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:26,040
Speaker 1: is a spice. There's definitely a maybe it's it's just

1052
00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:30,080
Speaker 1: like a like a syrupy molasses kind of kind of

1053
00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:36,240
Speaker 1: thing going on over there at master of Malt dot

1054
00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:40,000
Speaker 1: com they did a review. Tell me if I'm crazy,

1055
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:43,080
Speaker 1: they may be on to something. What is this flavor?

1056
00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:47,320
Speaker 1: I can't quite grab it? Overall they write like an

1057
00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:51,880
Speaker 1: incredible rum, old fashioned. Oh that's interesting. They may be

1058
00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:56,320
Speaker 1: on to something, and that might be for you, the

1059
00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:58,160
Speaker 1: thing that makes you go ooh, now I want to

1060
00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 1: try it. Now, I want to try all right, Fingers,

1061
00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:02,280
Speaker 1: do not add a little bit of water. It is

1062
00:59:02,320 --> 00:59:05,760
Speaker 1: as he would to his bourbon. The question fingers with boy,

1063
00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:10,240
Speaker 1: is is this pirate rum p y r at pirate

1064
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:14,680
Speaker 1: rum eighty proof in your liquor cabinet for twenty nine

1065
00:59:14,760 --> 00:59:19,240
Speaker 1: ninety nine? Stop it? Yes?

1066
00:59:20,080 --> 00:59:23,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, really, yes, absolutely, But to me, because of how

1067
00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:25,880
Speaker 2: sweet this is this would be an after dinner drink

1068
00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:29,040
Speaker 2: in lieu of a dessert. To me, it's that sweet,

1069
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:34,440
Speaker 2: it's it's very nice. I even like the fact that

1070
00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:37,240
Speaker 2: it's got that bitter finish after that that sweet almost

1071
00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:41,200
Speaker 2: punch in the face the way those two don't get.

1072
00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:45,520
Speaker 2: That's that's wild that you don't. But to me, less

1073
00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:47,760
Speaker 2: than thirty dollars a bottle, yeah, that's in my liquor cabin.

1074
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:53,080
Speaker 1: I got to admit it's I it is perplexing, and

1075
00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:56,360
Speaker 1: I'm still not there, but I could totally see it.

1076
00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:59,920
Speaker 1: I could totally see that this is something that you're

1077
01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:02,560
Speaker 1: try this. Let me know what you think, because at

1078
01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:05,360
Speaker 1: thirty bucks you could afford to try this. Let me

1079
01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:08,680
Speaker 1: know what you think. The problem is, it's not rum

1080
01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:11,160
Speaker 1: as I want it. It is not that kind of

1081
01:00:11,320 --> 01:00:15,320
Speaker 1: sip that I am looking for. It is, however, unique,

1082
01:00:15,400 --> 01:00:20,240
Speaker 1: and this idea of a rum old fashion is such

1083
01:00:20,280 --> 01:00:24,880
Speaker 1: an interesting concept. Master of malt dot Com, well played, guys.

1084
01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:28,880
Speaker 1: I think I think for the for the old fat.

1085
01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:30,840
Speaker 1: If you're an old fashioned drinker, well now you have

1086
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:32,520
Speaker 1: to get it. You gotta get it, just to tell

1087
01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 1: us whether we're right or whether we're wrong. Because I'm

1088
01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:38,640
Speaker 1: curious to know where you're at this cigar. This cigar

1089
01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:40,600
Speaker 1: will be in my humid or it is time fingers

1090
01:00:40,640 --> 01:00:42,680
Speaker 1: Horatio Maloy for news of the week.

1091
01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:44,960
Speaker 2: Tony, how about some good news from the Middle East?

1092
01:00:47,040 --> 01:00:49,680
Speaker 1: Woo? Are you?

1093
01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:51,880
Speaker 2: Are you surprised that this may be coming out of

1094
01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:53,960
Speaker 2: my mouth? First of all, some good news, but then

1095
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:55,320
Speaker 2: on top of it out of the Middle East?

1096
01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:57,600
Speaker 1: Did I or did I not say? Woo?

1097
01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:06,320
Speaker 2: The story from the Jewish news dot com Israel Jewish News.

1098
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:10,480
Speaker 1: Yes, it's just called Jewish News. Yes? Is it written

1099
01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:10,960
Speaker 1: by my mother?

1100
01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:14,440
Speaker 2: It's Britain's biggest Jewish newspaper.

1101
01:01:14,560 --> 01:01:14,760
Speaker 1: Huh.

1102
01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:20,440
Speaker 2: Who knew Israel to perform world's first spinal cord implant

1103
01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:24,320
Speaker 2: using patient's own cells. So these are going to be

1104
01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:29,720
Speaker 2: lab grown cells like stem cells, and the procedure will

1105
01:01:31,440 --> 01:01:35,800
Speaker 2: be infused into where there's scar tissue on the spinal

1106
01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:40,360
Speaker 2: cord and it hope, in hopes, what will happen is

1107
01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:43,080
Speaker 2: it will regenerate the spinal cord in that area to

1108
01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:45,280
Speaker 2: where eventually people may be able to walk in.

1109
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:47,960
Speaker 1: I heard you wrong, and I thought you were insane.

1110
01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:50,480
Speaker 1: I thought you were talking about some level of spinal

1111
01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:53,760
Speaker 1: cord replacement. No, kind of thing. So you're saying that

1112
01:01:53,840 --> 01:01:56,560
Speaker 1: if somebody had a spinal cord injury and there's scar

1113
01:01:56,640 --> 01:01:59,640
Speaker 1: tissue on the spinal cord, they can utilize your own

1114
01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:02,600
Speaker 1: cell and they figured out how to manipulate the cells.

1115
01:02:02,680 --> 01:02:05,720
Speaker 1: Figure that out so they can hopefully get rid of

1116
01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:08,640
Speaker 1: the scar tissue and help rebuild spine to get people

1117
01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:09,280
Speaker 1: walking again.

1118
01:02:09,360 --> 01:02:13,040
Speaker 2: Yes, the new method replaces damage sections with a laboratory

1119
01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:17,880
Speaker 2: grown spinal cord that fuses with healthy tissue above and

1120
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:18,960
Speaker 2: below the injury.

1121
01:02:20,320 --> 01:02:22,640
Speaker 1: Do you know, I'm not quite sure how to use excel.

1122
01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:32,560
Speaker 1: They're regrowing spines and I'm like, how do I sort

1123
01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:33,320
Speaker 1: this column?

1124
01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:40,000
Speaker 2: Animal studies have already delivered striking results with paralyzed mice

1125
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:44,160
Speaker 2: regaining the ability to walk normally after receiving the engineered implants.

1126
01:02:44,240 --> 01:02:48,440
Speaker 1: That is unbelievable. For everything that we talk about. You know,

1127
01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:51,000
Speaker 1: it's all horrible, it's all terrible. We live in the

1128
01:02:51,520 --> 01:02:56,800
Speaker 1: most amazing time of opportunity ever. That's unreal.

1129
01:02:57,080 --> 01:03:01,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, And only having said that to to piggyback off this,

1130
01:03:01,160 --> 01:03:03,640
Speaker 2: we have an eat, drink smoke correction.

1131
01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:05,560
Speaker 1: Dum.

1132
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:09,160
Speaker 2: This just in Apparently everyone is not terrible.

1133
01:03:08,880 --> 01:03:11,800
Speaker 1: At their job, really, Oh, because of the Israelis because

1134
01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:11,960
Speaker 1: of this.

1135
01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:15,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, and so now we're down to ninety nine percent

1136
01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:16,720
Speaker 2: of people are terrible at their jobs.

1137
01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:22,080
Speaker 1: No, they did their job right. What we're what people

1138
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:25,040
Speaker 1: are able to do when they're allowed to put their

1139
01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:28,760
Speaker 1: minds to it, when they're allowed to try and fail

1140
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:32,600
Speaker 1: and get back up and try it again. It's it's

1141
01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:36,600
Speaker 1: freaking miraculous. That's an incredible story. We'll have it posted

1142
01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:39,560
Speaker 1: over Eat Drink Smoke show dot com. You should go

1143
01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:50,520
Speaker 1: check it out. Going under, Well, it happens you've got

1144
01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:56,400
Speaker 1: the Bravo group. These Italian restaurants, Bravo Brio filing for

1145
01:03:56,520 --> 01:03:59,360
Speaker 1: chapter eleven. It's Eatdrink Smoke. I'm Tony Katz. That is

1146
01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:04,320
Speaker 1: fingers will boy. They have filed for bankruptcy in Florida.

1147
01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:10,320
Speaker 1: This is just like Buka de Beppo, which is also

1148
01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:15,480
Speaker 1: a filed for bankruptcy protection. I have never been at

1149
01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:18,760
Speaker 1: a Bravo Italian kitchen or a Brio Italian grill. Have you?

1150
01:04:19,040 --> 01:04:22,400
Speaker 2: Yes, I've been to a Bravo, but it has probably

1151
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:29,960
Speaker 2: been twenty years, and I remember having an average dining

1152
01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:33,360
Speaker 2: experience didn't blow me away. I obviously it wasn't good

1153
01:04:33,480 --> 01:04:36,080
Speaker 2: enough for me to return, but it was fine.

1154
01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:41,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, so the story here is not a story I

1155
01:04:41,280 --> 01:04:44,480
Speaker 1: think of the economy, although there are still real economic

1156
01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:47,280
Speaker 1: issues out there. We haven't talked about the economy in

1157
01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 1: a while. Retail spending is up, the GDP was three percent.

1158
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:54,800
Speaker 1: Interest rates have not yet come down, and who knows

1159
01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:57,520
Speaker 1: what's going to happen in the September meeting. But things

1160
01:04:57,560 --> 01:05:00,360
Speaker 1: are more expensive. Retail spending is up, but things are

1161
01:05:00,440 --> 01:05:03,800
Speaker 1: more expensive. Walmart in one of the weirdest things ever

1162
01:05:04,720 --> 01:05:09,160
Speaker 1: for they missed their estimates since for the first time

1163
01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:12,960
Speaker 1: since twenty twenty two, but they increase their guidance for

1164
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:16,120
Speaker 1: the rest of the year. They feel very, very good.

1165
01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:19,440
Speaker 1: So people are going to Walmart based on perception and

1166
01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:22,400
Speaker 1: reality of cost. It's cheaper at Walmart. We're going to

1167
01:05:22,480 --> 01:05:25,160
Speaker 1: Walmart because things have gotten too expensive. Is it's still

1168
01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:28,240
Speaker 1: a conversation about people that are adjusting to the tariffs

1169
01:05:28,360 --> 01:05:31,760
Speaker 1: and companies are still trying to figure out their strategy.

1170
01:05:32,000 --> 01:05:34,160
Speaker 1: Companies are definitely still trying to figure out their strategy.

1171
01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:37,400
Speaker 1: Sorry there, but my voice about tariffs. That much is true.

1172
01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:42,600
Speaker 1: A lot of companies are absorbing tariff costs. Eventually that

1173
01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:47,280
Speaker 1: passes on to the consumer. It does. Has investment come

1174
01:05:47,440 --> 01:05:51,120
Speaker 1: because of the tariffs? Absolutely true? Are things more expensive

1175
01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:53,479
Speaker 1: because even if the good is made in the US,

1176
01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:56,200
Speaker 1: the goods that you are used to make the good

1177
01:05:56,280 --> 01:05:58,840
Speaker 1: come from elsewhere. Yes, and tariffs have now become a

1178
01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:02,840
Speaker 1: baseline in almost every country around the globe. So everything

1179
01:06:02,960 --> 01:06:06,520
Speaker 1: does cost a little bit more. But in this case,

1180
01:06:07,120 --> 01:06:10,040
Speaker 1: it's about spending patterns, spending habits. Maybe they don't feel

1181
01:06:10,080 --> 01:06:12,080
Speaker 1: like they want to spend this kind of thing when

1182
01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:14,480
Speaker 1: they can make pasta at home. Right, you have two

1183
01:06:14,520 --> 01:06:17,520
Speaker 1: Italian restaurants going through this. It could be exactly that

1184
01:06:18,080 --> 01:06:21,480
Speaker 1: habits altogether are patterns, could have changed, or it could

1185
01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:25,200
Speaker 1: have just been that they're not They didn't keep up

1186
01:06:25,280 --> 01:06:31,120
Speaker 1: with times, decore experience, et cetera. Not everything is well.

1187
01:06:31,240 --> 01:06:34,000
Speaker 1: Economy bad therefore, and I know some people would tell

1188
01:06:34,000 --> 01:06:36,640
Speaker 1: me economy isn't bad. Look if you tell me retail

1189
01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:39,600
Speaker 1: spending is up GDP is a three percent economy is good?

1190
01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:43,160
Speaker 1: Do you think it's good? You fingers more.

1191
01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:47,960
Speaker 2: I don't really notice much of a difference because of

1192
01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:54,120
Speaker 2: the whole inflation conversations. Things still feel you know, obviously

1193
01:06:54,160 --> 01:06:57,440
Speaker 2: the prices haven't come down. You know, you noticed it

1194
01:06:57,480 --> 01:07:00,880
Speaker 2: at the grocery store, especially you know, buying meat. Meat

1195
01:07:00,920 --> 01:07:01,560
Speaker 2: prices are.

1196
01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:04,000
Speaker 1: Up and people are still buying beef by the way,

1197
01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:05,120
Speaker 1: defindespeef dot com.

1198
01:07:06,080 --> 01:07:08,800
Speaker 2: You do that, and so that's where you notice it.

1199
01:07:09,160 --> 01:07:12,400
Speaker 2: I don't go out to dinner as much take the

1200
01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:17,160
Speaker 2: family out to a restaurant. I wonder about where you know,

1201
01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:22,440
Speaker 2: you have a conversation about these chains. Are people We've

1202
01:07:22,480 --> 01:07:25,640
Speaker 2: had this conversation before about are people scaling back and saying, Okay,

1203
01:07:25,920 --> 01:07:28,080
Speaker 2: when I go out to eat, I'm just gonna go.

1204
01:07:28,800 --> 01:07:30,040
Speaker 1: It's gonna be more of a splurge.

1205
01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:33,439
Speaker 2: And they some of these maybe middle chains that people

1206
01:07:33,640 --> 01:07:35,920
Speaker 2: used to go maybe once a week, they aren't going

1207
01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:36,640
Speaker 2: to them as much.

1208
01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:39,600
Speaker 1: We saw that the trend went from the quick serve

1209
01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:43,000
Speaker 1: to the if quick serve, Like I'm not trying to

1210
01:07:43,040 --> 01:07:46,080
Speaker 1: attack Chipotle. Here is gonna cost a family of four

1211
01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:48,880
Speaker 1: like sixty bucks? Why don't we just go to Texas

1212
01:07:48,960 --> 01:07:50,960
Speaker 1: Roadhouse and I could sit and be served and the

1213
01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:53,640
Speaker 1: wife could be served in their roles and right, So

1214
01:07:53,840 --> 01:07:56,000
Speaker 1: that changed. But there's a difference maybe between that and

1215
01:07:56,080 --> 01:07:59,080
Speaker 1: what a Bravo price or a Boo Good Beppo price was,

1216
01:07:59,240 --> 01:08:02,000
Speaker 1: or maybe it's value to I'd rather have a steak

1217
01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:06,960
Speaker 1: than spaghetti and meatballs. Now, Buka beppo? H have you

1218
01:08:07,120 --> 01:08:10,840
Speaker 1: been to uh in years? Yeah? That seemed was that

1219
01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:12,360
Speaker 1: is it?

1220
01:08:12,560 --> 01:08:14,600
Speaker 2: Because there's still in existence, right, aren't they going through

1221
01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:18,720
Speaker 2: the Yeah? Uh, that's higher end than olive garden. Yes,

1222
01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:24,360
Speaker 2: like considerably hiring. I would argue considerably. I would say

1223
01:08:24,400 --> 01:08:26,880
Speaker 2: it would be olive garden, then it would be Romanod

1224
01:08:26,920 --> 01:08:30,599
Speaker 2: macaroni grill, and then it would be in that change.

1225
01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:32,759
Speaker 2: That would be my take in that chain world. Okay,

1226
01:08:32,880 --> 01:08:35,400
Speaker 2: that I just discovered wah wah last week, so that

1227
01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:37,080
Speaker 2: you're you're playing in a different world than I am.

1228
01:08:37,479 --> 01:08:43,920
Speaker 1: So that's happening. And then there is outside of the

1229
01:08:43,960 --> 01:08:46,840
Speaker 1: cracker barrel story, which is not a story. They changed

1230
01:08:46,880 --> 01:08:49,720
Speaker 1: their logo. Everybody calmed down. Now the food's terrible, the

1231
01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:52,320
Speaker 1: service is terrible. That's different, changing of a logo. We're

1232
01:08:52,320 --> 01:08:57,040
Speaker 1: all gonna live. It's not a real story. Here's the headline.

1233
01:08:57,120 --> 01:08:59,519
Speaker 1: This is the dopiest headline I've seen in a while.

1234
01:09:00,439 --> 01:09:05,120
Speaker 1: Why many men suffer from haircut anxiety, new survey reveals.

1235
01:09:06,680 --> 01:09:10,000
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you're sorry. I'm the one who had to

1236
01:09:10,040 --> 01:09:15,479
Speaker 1: read it. Why many men suffer from haircut anxiety. New

1237
01:09:15,600 --> 01:09:22,040
Speaker 1: survey reveals. I believe the men suffer from haircut anxiety

1238
01:09:22,280 --> 01:09:25,280
Speaker 1: because they realized at that moment maybe they didn't have

1239
01:09:25,360 --> 01:09:32,120
Speaker 1: a penis. That's wow, that's my haircut anxiety. I used

1240
01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:36,560
Speaker 1: to have hair down to my waist. There have to

1241
01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:39,520
Speaker 1: be photos. My wedding photos is in the full ponytail

1242
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:42,920
Speaker 1: all the way down. When I got the haircut, I

1243
01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:47,280
Speaker 1: didn't shed a tear. I said, cool, I still look

1244
01:09:47,400 --> 01:09:49,960
Speaker 1: totally hot. And then I walked out of the place,

1245
01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:52,080
Speaker 1: donated the hair to Locks of Love at the time,

1246
01:09:52,439 --> 01:09:55,840
Speaker 1: and went about my business. Hair Cut anxiety for men.

1247
01:09:57,320 --> 01:09:59,880
Speaker 1: If you're a nine year old girl getting your haircut,

1248
01:10:00,040 --> 01:10:03,000
Speaker 1: you had long hair and you're cutting it short. Sure, okay,

1249
01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:08,240
Speaker 1: I accept a grown man. My god, I.

1250
01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:12,000
Speaker 2: Don't understand this because I feel like for a lot

1251
01:10:12,080 --> 01:10:14,760
Speaker 2: of men, not all men, but a lot of men,

1252
01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:18,559
Speaker 2: they find their haircut around the age of twenty five,

1253
01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:21,719
Speaker 2: and then they stick with it until there's a lot.

1254
01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:28,080
Speaker 1: Less hair up there. But what if we're seeing this

1255
01:10:28,200 --> 01:10:31,040
Speaker 1: all wrong? Okay, they're not afraid of getting a haircut,

1256
01:10:31,640 --> 01:10:36,200
Speaker 1: they're afraid of new styles. Well. According to the article,

1257
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:40,800
Speaker 1: a survey of two thousand men found that twenty one

1258
01:10:40,840 --> 01:10:44,200
Speaker 1: percent feel nervous asking their stylist or barber for a

1259
01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:47,800
Speaker 1: new hairstyle. Another twenty three percent afraid to ask for

1260
01:10:47,840 --> 01:10:55,880
Speaker 1: a specific haircut in the past. What why what why?

1261
01:10:56,680 --> 01:11:01,000
Speaker 2: I know for me, I don't want my hairstyle to

1262
01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:05,960
Speaker 2: judge me based on whatever hair lingo I use.

1263
01:11:07,280 --> 01:11:07,880
Speaker 1: Hair lingo.

1264
01:11:08,479 --> 01:11:10,200
Speaker 2: That's the best I could come up with. I'm sorry,

1265
01:11:10,280 --> 01:11:11,560
Speaker 2: I don't understand any of this.

1266
01:11:11,760 --> 01:11:14,679
Speaker 1: Why in the world would you be like, I want

1267
01:11:14,760 --> 01:11:17,719
Speaker 1: to ask for this, for this style, but I'm afraid

1268
01:11:17,800 --> 01:11:23,200
Speaker 1: I'll get laughed at again with the maybe you don't

1269
01:11:23,280 --> 01:11:27,719
Speaker 1: have maybe you're full Barbie, Nope, Ken, it's crazy.

1270
01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:31,040
Speaker 2: I don't get any of it. But do you have

1271
01:11:31,800 --> 01:11:35,120
Speaker 2: a guy or a gal who always cuts your hair?

1272
01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:37,599
Speaker 2: Do you have do you have a person, a specific person?

1273
01:11:37,680 --> 01:11:41,439
Speaker 2: I thought, oh no, did you go through a hair divorce?

1274
01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:48,559
Speaker 1: Well, I'm more like hair abandoning. What happened? I showed

1275
01:11:48,680 --> 01:11:52,519
Speaker 1: up and walked in kind of get a haircut? Guna

1276
01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:55,679
Speaker 1: looked really great. Everybody's gonna want me. I love a haircut.

1277
01:11:56,000 --> 01:11:59,200
Speaker 1: That was the song wow right there and uh and

1278
01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:02,519
Speaker 1: then she didn't work there anymore. And I had told her,

1279
01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:06,160
Speaker 1: if you ever leave give me a call, and she

1280
01:12:06,320 --> 01:12:06,640
Speaker 1: left you.

1281
01:12:07,120 --> 01:12:09,400
Speaker 2: I don't want to talk about that. Oh wow, so

1282
01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:12,640
Speaker 2: but now I've got a new person, but she's not

1283
01:12:12,760 --> 01:12:17,479
Speaker 2: the same. Why didn't you share this information with us earlier?

1284

Speaker 2: You have a whole community that.

1286
01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:28,519
Speaker 1: is what I was getting better. My haircuts are getting better.

1287
