1
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 1: It is Christmas week. I hope everybody had a fantastic.

2
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:16,959
Speaker 2: Glorious happy Christmas. And we you know, coming off the

3
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 2: cold and everything else, we said, well, go heavy on

4
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 2: the cigar. But when it comes to a bourbon again,

5
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 2: gone back to the well. It's eat, drink, smoke. Come

6
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 2: Tony Katz. That right there is America's favorite amateur drinker.

7
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,639
Speaker 2: Fingers from White Fingers. I was going through the eat, drink,

8
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 2: smoke liquor cabinet here, which is massive, and I realized

9
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 2: that we redid the Jefferson's Ocean the Age at Sea

10
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 2: Rye in earlier this year, like in January of twenty

11
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 2: twenty five.

12
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,919
Speaker 1: And somehow I didn't.

13
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 2: Realize that we had opened a bottle, even though we

14
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 2: already had a bottle. So I have two open bottles

15
00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 2: of Jefferson's Ocean Aged at Sea Voyage number two twenty six,

16
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 2: double barrel dry.

17
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:04,959
Speaker 1: We should do something about that. That's what we're drinking

18
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: right now.

19
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 2: Okay, so we're ending the year the way we started

20
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 2: the year at ninety six proof No applause from fingers Willow.

21
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,399
Speaker 2: I so close yet so far the double barrel Rye

22
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 2: from Jefferson's ocean. So the concept here at the Age

23
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 2: at Sea of the agency is that the barrels are

24
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 2: put on boats. They're put out on the water, and

25
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 2: the rocking of the water moves the juice around in

26
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 2: the barrel, so you get a different flavor from it.

27
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 1: Do I believe it? I'm not one hundred percent sure.

28
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 1: Here's what I know. It's a very very nice presentation.

29
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 2: It's a beautiful color in there, with a bit of

30
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 2: a bit of orange and a bit of richness going on.

31
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 2: And even as I call it the tail end of

32
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 2: this cold, how lovely, how nice, how flavorful, luscious.

33
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a bit of rye spice, an best, a

34
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 3: nice bit of sweetness that I can't quite put my

35
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 3: finger on. Not a whole heck of a lot of oak.

36
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 3: But man, if I were the type that would go

37
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 3: to a candle shop and say, ShopKeep right, I would

38
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,799
Speaker 3: like a candle and they would say, well, what do

39
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 3: you want it to smell like? I would give them

40
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:25,079
Speaker 3: a glass of this right here.

41
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 2: It's really really a nice presentation on the nose.

42
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,239
Speaker 1: And there is a little bit of camel.

43
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 2: It comes across as a little bit fruit for me

44
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 2: right there on the nose. I don't know if that's

45
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 2: totally accurate, but it is delicious, Yeah, just delicious, but

46
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 2: enough enough. We have done this many times. This is

47
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 2: actually the third time we have done this. We did

48
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 2: this in twenty twenty two, did the beginning of twenty

49
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 2: twenty five, and just decided, let's the end of the year.

50
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 1: With something just we know is perfect. Yeah, because both

51
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 1: of us are sick.

52
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 3: You're you're I'm a little bit further along than you

53
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 3: are with the cold. But to be fair, you know,

54
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 3: some people ask us, why do we revisit stuff. We've

55
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 3: done the show now for twenty one years.

56
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 1: Right, it's been a long it's been a long it's

57
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: been six years.

58
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 2: It's been six years, and so some things are going

59
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 2: to repeat themselves in some things we want to repeat themselves.

60
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,359
Speaker 2: Don't worry. We start off in twenty twenty six. We've

61
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 2: got a huge you hold on fingers. Fingers has tried

62
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 2: to take a sip twice. We have got so many

63
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 2: new things to bring you fantastic and yes, more tequilas

64
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 2: and more RUMs. H and I only mentioned the rum

65
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 2: because starting next week, we give you our top three

66
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 2: bourbons and our top three cigars of the year, and

67
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 2: you might see a rum on my list. Really, I'm

68
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 2: just leaving that as a possible tease right now.

69
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 3: You know you could further the teas by saying yo

70
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 3: hoo ho in a barrel of rum. Yeah, I tried.

71
00:03:57,920 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 3: Fingers are ready for this.

72
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 2: I've been ready for this all you fingers will always

73
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 2: going to do what is called the Kentucky chew, taking

74
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 2: the juice, moving it around the palette, really getting a

75
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 2: feel for those flavors.

76
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 1: I believe in the two steps methodology.

77
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 2: The first sip to set the taste buds right, get

78
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 2: over that initial a shock er, sting, whatever it may be.

79
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,719
Speaker 2: The second stip to really get an idea, the feel

80
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 2: the flavors of this. The Jefferson's Ocean. This is the

81
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 2: agency double barrel rye whiskey coming in at ninety six.

82
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:30,279
Speaker 2: Proof is what's going on here? Voyage twenty six In

83
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 2: case you're keeping an eye at home.

84
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 1: What say you?

85
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 3: For those of you that don't know the Voyage twenty six,

86
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 3: it's a little bit better than the Voyage twenty five,

87
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 3: but not as good as the Voyage twenty seven.

88
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: Every time, every time, what say you, fingers? That oak

89
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 1: is there.

90
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 3: There is a little bit of caramel, that rye spice

91
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 3: is there, and there's there's another sweetness. It's almost like

92
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 3: a like a bready sweetness that's there that I think

93
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 3: that's what it is. It's it's I'm having a hard

94
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,840
Speaker 3: time ever, I'm having a hard time putting my finger

95
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 3: on it. But listen, it's lovely. And I mean, you

96
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 3: saw how much of our little poor here that I took.

97
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: I took a nice switch to a grown man sip.

98
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I did, and it it doesn't play like it's

99
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 3: almost a hundred proof to me anyway. But again, I'm

100
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 3: sick and this is medicinal, So go ahead, give us

101
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 3: your impression, Tony.

102
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 2: This is Voyage twenty six and the Jefferson's Ocean Age.

103
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 1: A't see.

104
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 2: It's Christmas week and you had a fantastic Christmas and

105
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 2: at least we hope. And then you got your feet

106
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 2: up and the family is left and the kids are

107
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 2: playing with their toys while they're still interested in the toys,

108
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 2: and you have a chance to have a drink, and

109
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 2: you went with a classic. You went with something great.

110
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 2: That's why we chose it. Here you go, he's going

111
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 2: in ladies and gentlemen. And he's doing what we like

112
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 2: to call here at eatring smoke, the saganaw swish, the

113
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 2: Memphis munch chatted nukacha ump man. It's so oh he's

114
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 2: going back and oh, you know what, and and again

115
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 2: it's medicinal.

116
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 1: It is.

117
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 3: You almost busted on ahamad ahamadahamaa ha.

118
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 2: It's so good. It is so so good. It's such

119
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 2: a wonderful presentation. It does have that that real sweetness

120
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 2: going on, at least that's what I'm getting. The rise

121
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,280
Speaker 2: spice is there as you get into the to the

122
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 2: finish and you.

123
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 1: Get a little bit, you get a little bit of

124
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 1: the spice I.

125
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 2: Think in in in the finish, but that that palette

126
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 2: is luscious and warm and has got a kind of

127
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 2: holiday sweet.

128
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: I guess you could call it. The bready sweet.

129
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 2: That you're talking about, I think is really there, but

130
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 2: it's it's met with a little bit of like creaminess.

131
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 2: The guys over breaking Bourbon dot Com referred to it

132
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 2: as a toasted marshmallow, which I think is a nice

133
00:06:58,480 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 2: way to put it. I don't think I get that

134
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 2: esoteric in my in my commentaries. Everything about it is

135
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 2: just so enjoyable, relaxed. And while there I don't have

136
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 2: a mash bell on this, I have no mash belt

137
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 2: on the on the Jefferson's Jefferson's Ocean Agency, Rye. The

138
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 2: spice is not in intensity, the the the sweet and

139
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 2: the and the fullness is more on display. Absolutely adore it,

140
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 2: so absolutely adore it.

141
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 3: This is my question to you, because I have much

142
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 3: more of a sweet tooth than you do, and you

143
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 3: are the rye guy on the show. This doesn't have

144
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 3: the rye spice that you would normally be looking for

145
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 3: and rye.

146
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: Wouldn't you want a little bit more of a rye punch?

147
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 2: If I, if we're talking about like like ways, I

148
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 2: normally enjoy a rye. Yes like a little more of

149
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 2: a rye hit. I for example, when it comes to

150
00:07:55,120 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 2: rise Pikesville to me, is has has it remains after

151
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 2: all these years the standard when when I think about

152
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 2: a rye, this plays much much, much differently.

153
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 3: So even though it is sweeter and has a little

154
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,559
Speaker 3: bit less of that that rye spice that you're looking for,

155
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,679
Speaker 3: it's it's still something that you enjoy.

156
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 1: But is it in your liquor cabinet?

157
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 2: Fingers away for somewhere in today's prices between eighty and

158
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:20,720

177
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,280

178
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 3: thousand dollars a hand on blackjack?

179
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 1: Right?

180
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 2: Uh?

181
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 3: But if you were, would you that would be the

182
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 3: game to play? Or uh, well it's blackjack the best odds. Yeah,

183
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:35,439
Speaker 3: that of craps.

184
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 1: Back rack? Do you even know how to play background?

185
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 2: Now?

186
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: Any either one? But perhaps I can't figure.

187
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 2: I get to the table and some people help me,

188
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,559
Speaker 2: and I'm like, all right, so roll So you want

189
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 2: me to roll this?

190
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 1: So you want me to play it? Here? A fine?

191
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 2: And I get and then I it's so long in

192
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 2: between when I play, I don't recall.

193
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 3: My problem with it is the table is surround with people,

194
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 3: and everybody's huddled around the craps table, and I just

195
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 3: want to be left alone, you know, buy a machine

196
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 3: in the corner with my cigar where I'm not bothering anyone.

197
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 1: Is that why you video poker?

198
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,599
Speaker 3: Yes, that's the only reason why video poker, because you

199
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 3: poker has the best odds of any machine in a casino.

200
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 3: But as far as if you're actually going to gamble

201
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 3: to try to win something, it's not machines but you.

202
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: When you play video poker.

203
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,679
Speaker 2: Because I have sat with you many times playing video

204
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 2: poker now, and I have seen you win, and I've

205
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 2: seen you lose.

206
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 1: You have seen me win, You have seen me lose.

207
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: Did I or did I not? Get a royal flesh

208
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: and jump off the chair? Ladies and gentlemen.

209
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 3: We were at a casino in Las Vegas, Haras in

210
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 3: their little cigar area, which is awesome. Yes, I hope

211
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 3: it's still there. And Tony sat down. Within a half

212
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 3: hour he has played next to if we were going

213
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 3: to compare how many hands of video poker I've played

214
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 3: versus how many hands of video poker you've played?

215
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 2: Right, Fingersoy has played ninety two million hands of video poker,

216
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,680
Speaker 2: and I have said the term video poker fourteen times.

217
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 2: I believe that that's the spread between us.

218
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 3: We were in Vegas for an hour and he sat

219
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 3: down and he got a royal flush and if correct

220
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 3: me if I'm wrong, but didn't you draw Your initial

221
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 3: draw was four cards to a royal, And yeah, that

222
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 3: happens all the time, and you're like, watch this, and

223
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 3: then you hit the fifth card for the royal. He

224
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 3: sprung up out of his chair ran a lap around

225
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 3: the park.

226
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 2: First of all, I didn't run. I did walk with

227
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 2: my hands in my air in the air, I said,

228
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:55,559
Speaker 2: I didn't done. I did the thing. The idea that

229
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 2: you remember, see, this is how I know this is

230
00:11:58,160 --> 00:11:58,680
Speaker 2: your life.

231
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 1: You remember what it was I had?

232
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was either three or four cards to the

233
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 3: royal and you're like what ah, And I'm like yeah, yeah, yeah,

234
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 3: it happens all the time. And then he got the

235
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,959
Speaker 3: he got the royal, And you know, I'm not one

236
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 3: of these people like some are that are upset when

237
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 3: they see someone next to them win a royal. When

238
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 3: it's a friend, especially when it's a friend, it's like, hey,

239
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 3: good for you, congrats did the whole lap or I

240
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 3: couldn't help but chuckle.

241
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 1: It was funny.

242
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 3: It was like, my god, he's been here for a

243
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 3: half hour. He gets the biggest hand on a video

244
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,839
Speaker 3: poker machine that you can possibly get. You won, uh

245
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 3: seven what was it? One point two million dollars? I

246
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 3: believe I won two hugs of dollars. I have no

247
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 3: idea even how much it us.

248
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: I know how much. If you want me to say, good,

249
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 1: one thousand dollars? Is that what I want? So what

250
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: I went home with, Well, no, you were in Vegas. Huh.

251
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: She sud to have done this wrong.

252
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 2: Uh. But by the way, Uh, the Haras has this

253
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 2: really strange like when you walk through the through Harras, right,

254
00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 2: You've got casino on each side and it comes to

255
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 2: a main hallway and so these two areas converge like

256
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 2: fallopian tubes. That's exactly how they design it is it is,

257
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 2: it's all sexual, and there's a there's this this bar

258
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 2: in the middle and it's it's it's a round bar,

259
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 2: and they allow cigars smoking. Not ever seen allows cigars

260
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 2: smoking and very often his fingers nose. They don't allow

261
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 2: cigars at the bar. It's weird to have a small sign.

262
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,839
Speaker 2: We talked about this before. It's it's basically the size

263
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 2: of a postage stamp that says no cigar smoking. And yeah, yeah,

264
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 2: cigarettes are fine. I don't know what they have against cigars,

265
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,319
Speaker 2: but the haras just to name a place they allow this,

266
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 2: and it is fantastic that you could.

267
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 1: Sit and be and do. And the weirdest part is

268
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 1: that bar is never the most crowded bar.

269
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 3: No, it's crazy, maybe because it's filled with cigar smoke.

270
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 2: So good such a good bartenders are great and everyone

271
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 2: was terrific there and and and loved it. But the threshold,

272
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 2: what does this mean to you that the threshold, which

273
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 2: was twelve hundred is now two.

274
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 3: Thousand, So if you know, it doesn't really come into

275
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 3: play with what we were playing, because you bet a

276
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 3: dollar twenty five playing quarter poker at the biggest hand

277
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 3: you can get is a royal flush, which would pay

278
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 3: you one thousand dollars. At that point, the machine just

279
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 3: gives you one thousand dollars if you cash out. But

280
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 3: for other games, if you're playing other you know, a

281
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 3: denomination fifty cent a hand, then your royal flush would

282
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 3: be two thousand dollars. So if you got a royal

283
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 3: flush playing fifty cent poker at a max bet, it

284
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 3: would be two thousand dollars. At that point, your machine

285
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 3: freezes up starts playing music for everyone around you to

286
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 3: know that you just hit a jackpot. Then casino personnel

287
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 3: have to come out, give you a form to fill

288
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 3: out tax form. You got to present your ID, and

289
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 3: then that jackpot is recorded and reported to the IRS

290
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 3: because it was, you know, two tho dollars at the time,

291
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 3: higher than twelve hundred dollars. Well now, and I believe

292
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 3: that I don't have the information in front of me,

293
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 3: but I believe that twelve hundred dollars threshold was set

294
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 3: in the eighties. So I don't know if you know

295
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 3: this or not, but twelve hundred dollars in the nineteen

296
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 3: eighties compared to twelve hundred dollars today.

297
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:18,479
Speaker 1: There's a big gap.

298
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 2: Right, So it's two thousand, it should have gone to

299
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 2: eighty two million, Yes, exactly.

300
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 3: So gamblers and especially Vegas casinos have been screaming for

301
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 3: years that this needs to be adjusted because then also

302
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 3: you don't have to have casino employees coming out as

303
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 3: much because you know, a two thousand dollars jackpot versus

304
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 3: twelve hundred dollars, that's a big gap, and you won't

305
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 3: have casino personnel having to come out as much to

306
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 3: do all this paperwork. So this is a welcome change

307
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 3: in the gaming industry as well as for people that

308
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 3: go and gamble.

309
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 2: I I look at but it hasn't changed the amount

310
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 2: of people going to Vegas. Like when I go to Vegas,

311
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 2: I'm going for food, I'm going for things, right, not

312
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 2: not the gambling. The Vegas problem is still as you

313
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 2: follow this stuff, the Vegas problem is still real, right, Yeah,

314
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 2: the Vegas problem is still real, and it's not due

315
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 2: to this regulation.

316
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 1: You know.

317
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 3: It has everything to do with how Vegas casinos are

318
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 3: now nickeling and diming the the middle class gambler and

319
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 3: traveler to Vegas out between high resort fees, charging people

320
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 3: for parking, wanting to get a cup of coffee and

321
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 3: it's eleven dollars that kind of stuff. Or at least

322
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 3: before there felt like there was value in a Vegas

323
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 3: vacation because maybe you would have a limited budget gambling.

324
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 3: But if you, you know, use a player's club card.

325
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 3: At the end of your trip, you may find that

326
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 3: you're not paying for your room. They've you know, given

327
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 3: you several dinners and now it's to the point where

328
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 3: a lot of that is gone.

329
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you're getting less, you're paying more, You're getting holy.

330
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 1: Screwed, and you're angry about it.

331
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 3: Yes, people have said, forget it, I'm not cutting I'll

332
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 3: just go to my local casino. Why should I travel

333
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 3: here to be treated this way?

334
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:12,439
Speaker 2: The argument has been whether or not Vegas has really responded.

335
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:15,440
Speaker 1: Feel do you feel.

336
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 2: That they have not in a substantial way now, so

337
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:20,919
Speaker 2: they've got a long way to go before the crowd's

346
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: an ice cube.

347
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,199
Speaker 2: Honestly, we are just so lucky that we are so

348
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 2: far over this cold.

349
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: We're here.

350
00:17:55,440 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 2: It's been brutal and from everything I'm hearing, like was

351
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 2: going around left and right, people are in serious like

352
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 2: it's the worst flu ever.

353
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 1: It's always somehow the worst flu ever.

354
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 2: But Fingers had a cold and yours has been like

355
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 2: really chested and really congestion. I got a cold last week.

356
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 2: I'm on really on the tail end. Mostly I feel fine.

357
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 1: Now. Last week we recorded, I was a mess, still

358
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 1: not perfect.

359
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 2: So we took it very very easy with the Jefferson

360
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 2: notion Ageency double barrel Rye and we did this back

361
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,719
Speaker 2: in January. So we're ending the year the way we

362
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 2: started the year. Just something we knew would be just

363
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,680
Speaker 2: an absolute absolute pleasure. Tune eighty and one hundred dollars

364
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 2: a bottle really depending.

365
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 1: On where you're.

366
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 2: Shopping, and not really the high Rye spice that you

367
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,159
Speaker 2: would expect from a rye. But there's a lot of

368
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 2: lusciousness here. It is such excuse me, I'm going back in.

369
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 3: Oh, look at you without a cube, but he's still

370
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,639
Speaker 3: because he's muscling through. He decided just to go for

371
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:58,159
Speaker 3: it and you're happy.

372
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: And for the record, we're not changing the show. We're

373
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: huge believers.

374
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,199
Speaker 2: And you try it with a cube, you try it

375
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,679
Speaker 2: with water, you try it neat, you find what works

376
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 2: for you, because some bourbons it might not work for

377
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:10,920
Speaker 2: you neat, but it's great on a cube, it's great

378
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 2: with a little bit of water.

379
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: No, you don't want to do those things.

380
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 2: You gotta try it in all the ways in order

381
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 2: to find out what's the best expression of what it

382
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 2: is the distiller created. We admit it's it's Christmas week

383
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 2: and we hope everybody had a fantastic Christmas because of

384
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 2: just how the year ended, which I would admit to

385
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 2: you fingers. We've been doing the show for six years.

386
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 2: I have never had a more busy, tumultuous, weird ending

387
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 2: to a year. And I said this this earlier. I

388
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 2: don't usually end years like well, I'm glad that's over,

389
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,159
Speaker 2: because it's not you know, tomorrow won'll come. Tomorrow is

390
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,159
Speaker 2: another day, and the new year is gonna come, and

391
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 2: there's gonna be other.

392
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 1: Things that go on.

393
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 2: So I never usually think that way. It has just

394
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 2: been a lot all at once, almost overwhelming in a way.

395
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:01,439
Speaker 2: And I don't, I admit to you, I'm not a

396
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:05,120
Speaker 2: guy who feels that way really at all. But I'm

397
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,880
Speaker 2: I just like the last couple of weeks of kind

398
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 2: of taking it a little bit easy. Yeah, I'm very

399
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 2: very good with that.

400
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 3: I can't wait for twenty twenty six. I'm just hoping

401
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 3: midway through twenty twenty six. I'm not going to miss

402
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five. Ah, everything has to get better, right

403
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 3: what one would assume? You know what, that's what keeps

404
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 3: bringing people back to eat, drink smoke and being a

405
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,360
Speaker 3: part of Eat, Drink, Smoke Nation. It's because we're always

406
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 3: glasses half full kind of guys.

407
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,920
Speaker 1: But we are. Oh are you wait? I am?

408
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 2: I was waiting for you to realize what you were saying. Yeah,

409
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 2: I realize the mistake quickly. I'm a rather optimistic cat.

410
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 2: I'm very much a believer that it's all going to

411
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 2: be like things can be good and just you can

412
00:20:59,080 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 2: work through it.

413
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: And don't get caught up in the madness samesease, Oh

414
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 1: it's funny because it's not true.

415
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:10,879
Speaker 2: So no, we didn't do the cube this week. But

416
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 2: I can't recommend it enough. It really is an absolutely

417
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,200
Speaker 2: wonderful presentation. Now, if you're somebody who wants the high

418
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 2: Rise spice, I could get that this is not yours.

419
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 2: That's that's absolutely true. But as something that's in the

420
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 2: liquor cabinet, I'm a yes. I think it's just a

421
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 2: terrific presentation. And we're smoking from Espinoza Cigars. They're not

422
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 2: gonna sandwich off menu. What are you gonna say?

423
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: Fingers for me?

424
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,360
Speaker 3: This is a nice holiday rye because of the sweetness.

425
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 3: If you want a little bit of rye spice but

426
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 3: you're not fully let's say you're rye curious.

427
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:49,439
Speaker 1: This is nice.

428
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,360
Speaker 3: And while I said earlier, eighty to one hundred dollars

429
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 3: is really steep for me. I highly recommend if you

430
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 3: see this at your favorite lounge, get yourself a poor.

431
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think it should be a new look

432
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,160
Speaker 2: your cabinet. The cigar is from Espinos. It's a knuckle

433
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,399
Speaker 2: sandwich off menu. It's what they make for the THAA

434
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,400
Speaker 2: to Tobacconist Association of America.

435
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 1: So if you can find it, you grab it.

436
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 2: Thirteen dollars and fifty cents a stick, six by a

437
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 2: fifty four box, press your right fingers. The flavor has

438
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:23,439
Speaker 2: not changed throughout this cigar. I think maybe there's a

439
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 2: little bit build up of spices. I'm in the final

440
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 2: third of the stick, so it's smoking a little faster

441
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 2: than I thought it would. It is smoky, which is

442
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 2: really interesting for a cigar. It's got you know, you

443
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 2: we had talked about bonfire, you talked about wet leaves

444
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 2: and things like that, and you're like, wait, wait, that

445
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 2: doesn't make any sense.

446
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 1: Smoke it. Compared to all the other.

447
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 2: Knuckle sandwiches, this is a far more to me flavorful stick.

448
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 2: This is absolutely a full bodied stick. And at the

449
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 2: first it was really hit me for a loop. I'm

450
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 2: better now, I'm fine. Now it's reverse for me.

451
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 3: I would have argued at the beginning, this is this is,

452
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 3: this is feeling like more medium and boy, now that

453
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,639
Speaker 3: I'm getting into the final third, it is starting to

454
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 3: hit me.

455
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,879
Speaker 2: That Pennsylvania broadleaf, Nicaragua and the binder and filler, I

456
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 2: like Pennsylvania broadleaf.

457
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 1: It's big, but.

458
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 2: It is, it's smoky, it's it's very unique in that

459
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 2: regard of all the knuckle sandwiches which are Espinoza with

460
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 2: Guy Fierti, this to me is the most flavorful one.

461
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 1: This is a lot of cool happening here.

462
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 2: There would be a couple in the humidor because every

463
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:34,440
Speaker 2: now and are gonna be like, let me go back

464
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 2: to that as a matter of where my natural flavor

465
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:44,879
Speaker 2: profile is. No, as a matter of unique, yes, like

466
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:49,399
Speaker 2: trying this, Like okay, they really did get something here

467
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 2: that isn't of the every day And I go back

468
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 2: to that. That that smoky, almost ashy, make you think

469
00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:04,920
Speaker 2: of Scotch in that regard interesting interesting smoke. At thirteen

470
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 2: dollars and fifty.

471
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:10,359
Speaker 1: Cents a stack, I think it so sixteen dollars a stick. Second,

472
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 1: am I getting it wrong? Was it sixteen? I'll double

473
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: check myself because it was for me in my humid door.

474
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 1: It's sixteen dollars six I don't know why I said

475
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: thirteen fifty.

476
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 3: I apologize. It's sixteen dollars a stick. Yeah, it's still

477
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 3: in my humid door. I have enjoyed it. It we

478
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 3: haven't had too much of a problem with the maintaining it.

479
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 3: It's well constructed, and yeah, it is a full bodied cigar.

480
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,919
Speaker 3: I wouldn't make this an everyday smoke for me. I

481
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 3: couldn't do this every now, but yeah, I would have

482
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:41,640
Speaker 3: one or two of these in my humid door.

483
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:46,360
Speaker 2: Fingers will I. It's time for news of the week.

484
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,640
Speaker 3: So it was just announced a week ago that Danny's

485
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 3: has decided they're going to shut down one hundred and

486
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:59,120
Speaker 3: fifty locations by years and they apparently have just gone

487
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 3: private or the going to go private. A couple of

488
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 3: private equity groups have have purchased it and part of

489
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 3: this restructuring reorganization of Denny's, one hundred and fifty stores

490
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 3: are going by the wayside. Now wow, you know, to me,

491
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 3: I went to a Denny's about a month ago with

492
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:19,919
Speaker 3: my father. It was the first time he had been

493
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:24,440
Speaker 3: in Denny's in ever, uh, and it struck me because

494
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 3: I thought to myself, well, first of all, you know,

495
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 3: you still get the a nice variety of breakfast foods

496
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:36,359
Speaker 3: of Denny's. I did kind of feel like I paid

497
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,199
Speaker 3: a lot more than I was used to paying out

498
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 3: of Denny's and of course everything has gone up. It

499
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 3: makes me wonder if maybe, and this is just anecdotal,

500
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 3: Denny's lost its way a little bit where you thought

501
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:48,160
Speaker 3: you thought den.

502
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,680
Speaker 2: I think as a brand, it's just it's it's not exciting,

503
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 2: it's not interesting, it's not where people think of.

504
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,840
Speaker 1: It's just but it was budget. It's old.

505
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 3: Well it could be that too, it's dated. But you

506
00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 3: always thought Denny's was like a place for a budget breakfast.

507
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 3: And if they've kind of gone away from that a

508
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:04,160
Speaker 3: little bit, maybe people say.

509
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 2: Everybody has gone away from that. Sure, I mean, what's

510
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 2: budget now? What when egg prices were up? Everything went

511
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 2: up and prices have not come down.

512
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:15,679
Speaker 3: So it's been a while since I've been to an

513
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 3: ee Hop, but I kind of felt like I Hop

514
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 3: and Denny's were kind of that, you know, chain, budget,

515
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 3: sit down restaurant that you can go to. And things

516
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 3: have changed, and you know some of these places of struggle,

517
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 3: and clearly Denny's as now that they've gone private and

518
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 3: now they're continuing to scale back and shut down locations.

519
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 2: So the question before them is is there a way

520
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 2: to rethink this or rebuild this or is it brand

521
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 2: or is it consumer?

522
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 1: Preference.

523
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna go out to the place where I

524
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,959
Speaker 2: now also have to leave the tip to get a

525
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 2: subpar service in a subpar breakfast. I'm not saying that

526
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 2: Denny's is subpar. I'm saying that compared to other places

527
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 2: and other dollars. Is that how people view it?

528
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 1: You tell me you were there, Joe?

529
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 3: Was it solid? It was solid. I was just spent

530
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,120
Speaker 3: more than I thought I was going to. But where

531
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:08,919
Speaker 3: does that not happen?

532
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 1: What it is? Which is exactly the point.

533
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 2: There are two stories to end this year that are

534
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 2: just the most perfect stories to end the year. One

535
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:28,920
Speaker 2: involves Costco and one involves your cat. Wait, my cat?

536
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 2: Your cat, it's dead. That's what makes the story so weird.

537
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 2: See drink smell Come Tony Kats. You joked about a

538
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 2: dead cat. That right there is America's favorite amateur drinker,

539
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 2: Fingers molloy.

540
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 1: It doesn't mind.

541
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 2: We do seem to cover a fair amount of Costco stories,

542
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,440
Speaker 2: mostly because Fingers maloy is still pining for the return

543
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 2: of the onion gun.

544
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 1: Bring it back. What are you waiting for? It's twenty

545
00:27:58,640 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 1: twenty six.

546
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 2: We can put a man on the moon. Allegedly, we

547
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 2: can that made me feel good? Oh, Hollie, I had

548
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 2: kept a straight face. We deserve our onion gun back.

549
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 2: Uh some Uh, it's very possible that Costco is going

550
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 2: to get a new look. You're going to see possibly

551
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 2: redesigns of stores pre scan technology.

552
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:30,879
Speaker 3: That needs to happen. Really, Oh my goodness. Did you

553
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 3: go to Bjy's warehouse?

554
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:33,479
Speaker 1: No?

555
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 2: No, we had a we had a falling out again.

556
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:41,000
Speaker 2: Well what am I supposed to do? You know, I

557
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 2: believe if I want to try and clothes, so I

558
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 2: should be able to try in my undergarments right there in.

559
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 1: The aisle, but not in the deli section. Well that's

560
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 1: where the meat is. But you go to BJ's.

561
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 3: And what I like about BJS is you can scan

562
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 3: the items as you shop, pay for every thing on

563
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 3: your phone, and just walk out.

564
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 1: You don't have to deal with cashiers.

565
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 2: Your hatred of human interaction, not just that, it's not

566
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 2: just that, okay, no.

567
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 3: It's you don't have to wait in line, just walk out.

568
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 3: It's wonderful. And you know, for for those of you

569
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 3: that don't mind having your credit card information on your phone,

570
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 3: you can you can pay for it on your phone

571
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 3: and leap by the way my Uh, well, I don't

572
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 3: want to get into it. Oh someone got a hold

573
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 3: of my my debit card and charge one thousand dollars

574
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 3: at Home Depot in New York. And when I find you,

575
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 3: I'm not going to find you.

576
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: Really, someone got a hold from the dark web? Did that? Yes?

577
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 1: They did?

578
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 3: How did your bank handle it? They notified me. I

579
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 3: hadn't even noticed it by this and it never made

580
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 3: it to where I track all of my transactions, never

581
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 3: even made it to the app me.

582
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 1: And they went to Home Depot and Taco Bell. Oh yeah,

583
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 1: apparently the bank stopped them both, although somebody may have

584
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 1: gotten away with a crunchy rap supreme oh so so.

585
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 2: So the question is were they able to get the

586
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,600
Speaker 2: goods so Home Depot is out of the goods or

587
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,560
Speaker 2: were they not able to did it not go through? It?

588
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 3: I don't know if you don't get there was almost

589
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 3: a thousand dollars transaction and apparently it got flagged. So

590
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 3: either they got the stuff and ran out the door

591
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 3: and Home Depots out of thousand dollars worth of merchandise,

592
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 3: or it got flagged right away and the transaction didn't

593
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 3: go through.

594
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 1: That'd be my take. At least I hope for their sake.

595
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 1: I don't know about the crunch. It always thinks when

596
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 1: that happens. I've had it happen.

597
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 2: It's just it's just a gigantic pain. Uh. Costco is

598
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 2: going to build out their digital strategy, strategy.

599
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 1: They want uh, I guess they.

600
00:30:54,200 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 2: Want this more online thing happening UH as well, and employees.

601
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 1: Are gonna get a raise. Well, that's good.

602
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 2: The lowest paid clerk across US Costco stores will soon

603
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 2: make twenty one dollars an hour and the highest paid

604
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 2: we'll get thirty two an hour. Did you know when

605
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 2: they work weekends they get time and a half.

606
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 3: That's great, But I can't help but notice that there's

607
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 3: a possibility that you're going to be able to scan

608
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 3: your own items and not have to deal with the

609
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 3: cash here.

610
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 1: So you mean they're gonna have less employees? Is that

611
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: what's happening? Eh? Eh? Just doing the math? Is that

612
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,760
Speaker 1: how you just played a KOI right there? I'm just

613
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 1: saying it's.

614
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 3: Just an odd thing that they are going to give

615
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 3: a nice raise to cashiers but also let customers possibly

616
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,000
Speaker 3: scan their own items and not deal with the cash here.

617
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: The other one is.

618
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 2: That the food court where you get the dollar fifty

619
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 2: hot dog? And it used to be a Pepsi? Did

620
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 2: they switch to coke? They go back to coke this story,

621
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 2: I think we discussed this. I'm forgetting right now. They

622
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 2: moved back to Coca Cola from the Pepsi. You will

623
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 2: now have to scan your membership card in order to

624
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 2: get the hot dog. No, just sneaking in you non

625
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:19,680
