1
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 1: Trying ourselves a little bit of whiskey, not bourbon. Whiskey

2
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 1: seat drink smoke. I'm Tony Katz and that is America's

3
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 1: favorite amateur drinker, Fingers molloy. All bourbons are whiskeys, but

4
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: not all whiskies are bourbons. That's how it goes. A

5
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,600
Speaker 1: bourbon has to be fifty one percent corn and follow

6
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,239
Speaker 1: a whole series of rules. You can find those rules

7
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 1: in her book, Let's Go Bourbon, By the Way. It's

8
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 1: available at Amazon dot com wherever fine books are sold.

9
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 1: This is a whiskey, oddly enough, called a North American

10
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 1: whiskey from Fraser and Thompson. That is the brand Fraser

11
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 1: and Thompson. This is a North American whiskey. This is

12
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: made out of Bardstown, Kentucky, and it's owned by Michael Boublay.

13
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 2: The singer ye songwriter. I love all of his brooner

14
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 2: love all of his music. That song that he does

15
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 2: right what the music in the background.

16
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: I like Boublay. Boobley's a guy you can hang with.

17
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: I dude, I can't say dis liked him. I just can't.

18
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 2: I can't name any Bubley songs.

19
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 1: It didn't sound like you liked much. You didn't sound

20
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: like like you were like thankful he was making you

21
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:12,680
Speaker 1: some fine whiskey for you to try to fine.

22
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 2: I like that one song he does, Hot Cross Buns.

23
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: Give me the bottle right there, a standard bottle. Happened

24
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 1: to like the label with with with the copper and

25
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 1: and the black. Here this comes in an eighty four proof.

26
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: No applause because it's not one hundred proof, fingers moy

27
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,279
Speaker 1: would only applau for things that are a hundred proof. Again,

28
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 1: not bourbon. This is whiskey. We usually see this as

29
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: American whiskey. That's usually the way this this comes up. Uh,

30
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: first things first, fingers moy. Uh, that is a very

31
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: pale gold as a pale gold color. Uh that this

32
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: this bourbon has and a touch of this costity here

33
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: there's the bottle. Take there, Oh, thank you a touch

34
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: of his costody there. Uh, that's all I can really

35
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 1: gather from, not the traditional bourbon. Uh, look right, anything

36
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: darker amber, deep rich coppers, things like that doesn't mean

37
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 1: that it's going to be a problem. It's just it's

38
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 1: a different process altogether, and you're gonna get a different result.

39
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: Then you would get what you would normally consider a bourbon.

40
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: Fingers Will is into the nose already on this, What

41
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: say you, fingers Willy.

42
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 2: So there's a hint of spice and I'm getting oak.

43
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 2: But I but I'm not getting any like caramel or vanilla.

44
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,959
Speaker 1: Well there, there's so a couple of we don't have

45
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: an age statement here, right because because again not a bourbon,

46
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 1: I also don't have a mash Bill. I don't know

47
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: what this comes you know how, No, stop it, that's

48
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:56,959
Speaker 1: not it. Okay, I'm done. There is there is a

49
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 1: little bit of speed, sweetness. There is a little bit

50
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: of ethanol. To me that that hits right off the

51
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:09,119
Speaker 1: bat on this. I definitely definitely get that. I don't

52
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 1: know if it's necessarily in inviting, but it's not bad.

53
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 1: It's it's a it's a it's a fine nose. A

54
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 1: little underdeveloped maybe is the way I would say it.

55
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: But I do get. I do get a sweetness that

56
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 1: I think you could put his caramel. I think you

57
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: could put it there. That would be my take on

58
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 1: the nose. But smelling, smelling fingers woy, Are you ready

59
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: for this, Tony? I've been ready for this all week.

60
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 1: Fraser and Thompson. Whiskey is what we've got here. This

61
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 1: comes from Michael Boublay. He's Canadian. Eh So, Fingers mooy

62
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: is doing what's known as the Kentucky chew, moving the

63
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: juice around the palette, try and get a feel for it.

64
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: I'm a believer in the two SIPs method. The first

65
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 1: sip to set the taste buds, second sip to really

66
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: get an idea of where the flavors are. Fingers may

67
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: what say you? So that oak is there?

68
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 2: It's first of all, very little sting on the tongue,

69
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:11,119
Speaker 2: no real warmth in the in the chest. It's it's

70
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 2: very nice. Uh sip and whiskey. Uh that oak is there.

71
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 2: I've seen people online talk about honey. I'm getting that

72
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:28,919
Speaker 2: a little bit on the palette and and the and

73
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 2: there too on on the finish there that spice hits you.

74
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 2: And then there's i'd say a little bit maybe caramel.

75
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 2: I'm not getting hit with a lot of things, but

76
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 2: what I'm getting hit with is pleasant.

77
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 1: All right. I'm going in that that was that you're

78
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:52,600
Speaker 1: not getting hit with anything.

79
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 2: I said a little bit honey, honey, oak, a little

80
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:01,839
Speaker 2: bit of caramel, and that's spice. So there's four things,

81
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 2: but nothing is like really punching in the face. It's

82
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,919
Speaker 2: a nice little blend of all that, all right, and

83
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 2: it's pleasant.

84
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: I'm going in. This is Fraser and Thompson, this is

85
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: Uh Michael buble Uh and his crew going in. He's

86
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: going in, ladies and gentlemen.

87
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 2: He's doing what we like to call the sagon of

88
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 2: swish and the Memphis munch, taking a North American nip

89
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 2: that is.

90
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 1: Much more flavorful on the on the palate than the nose.

91
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: Your other honey is a really good call. Butterscotch interesting

92
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 1: is where I'm at, really like almost with an intensity there.

93
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: This is so yeah, yeah, butterscotches it. This is way

94
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: sweeter than I ever would have possibly imagined. Really, Oh

95
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: my gosh, full tongue is almost like a syrupy coating.

96
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: You're looking at me like I'm nuts.

97
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 2: Maybe that wonderful steak we had in the first hour

98
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 2: is messing with my palate.

99
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: It's it's it's not that's I think we're all in.

100
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,799
Speaker 2: We're in the same place. I the butterscotch is interesting,

101
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 2: butterscotch and a little bit citrusy.

102
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna like like the finish has has a

103
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: touch of heat. I see where you're getting a little

104
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 1: bit of the oak. I'm I'm overpowered by the sweet.

105
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 1: Like yeah, like I'm gonna put a cube to this syrupy,

106
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: syrupy sweet candied orange butters The finish is more candied orange.

107
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 1: The palate is butterscotch. There's no spice, if you.

108
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 2: See, I was getting a little bit of spice. I'm

109
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,480
Speaker 2: not being over well, I'm not saying you're being overwhelmed.

110
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 2: But everything to me flow very nicely. And but it's not,

111
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, this is almost like a dessert whiskey.

112
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 1: It's very sweet. I'm not getting almost brain freeze sweet.

113
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 1: Really yeah, that's crazed. I can't how do you? I

114
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: don't go back in.

115
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 2: Maybe it's the three honey buns I've had today cheaper,

116
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 2: by the way.

117
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: You know that's true, right, you know he's had three

118
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: honey buns today. That's definitely happened. Really it there's a

119
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: sweetness to it. What I say, Oh my goodness, this

120
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 1: is like I'm I'm just it's a Worther's original. It's

121
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: a butterscotch. I don't even know Worthers is butterscotch. It's

122
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: a butterscotch. I mean, that's just you're not old enough

123
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 1: to know that. I've read books, I've heard tail the

124
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: question fingers from boy, This is from Fraser and Thompson.

125
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 1: This is a North American whiskey. Is this in your

126
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: liquor cabinet? For thirty dollars a bottle? I'd buy this.

127
00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: I gotta try it on a cube because right now,

128
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: for us a profile, I'm gonna know this is this

129
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: is overwhelmingly sweet. Wow, right, this is I think like

130
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: as a basis for a hot toddie, this could work

131
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 1: what this could work tremendously well with not as much

132
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 1: honey in it. But yeah, too much, too much. I'm

133
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: hoping a cube will bring that down wow a little bit.

134
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 1: But we will, we will get into that. We will

135
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: give that a try. Uh find everything we do at

Speaker 1: neither fingers Malloy nor I are from the South. It

140
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 1: hasn't happened. What has happened is that Fingers molloy just

141
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 1: spilled his bourbon all over the table. God, that was funny.

145
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,319
Speaker 1: that has ever happened. Leave it, dude, it's not anywhere

146
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 1: near the near the equipment.

147

149
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 2: this table, I knew who I was dealing. You were

150
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 2: grabbing the steak orgeous. He was going for the RBS steak.

151
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: That we were trying. They're steak nuggets. And also they're

152
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 1: not steak, it's brisket. And he's like, hey, Tony, I

153

201
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: to ruin my lemonade. Wow right, why not just urinate

202
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: in my lemonade? Oh my goodness, that's way till I

203
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: tell Arnold Palmer you said that? What exactly? Also on

204
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: the now they've got bourbon on the list. No, no, no, no,

205
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 1: it's you. Don't do you think of bourbon as Southern

206
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 1: bourbon as the American drink.

207
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 2: Kentucky, America, Kentucky, that's South.

208
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 1: I just I don't. I don't. I guess I don't

209
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:42,199
Speaker 1: visualize it like that.

210
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 2: No, nah, nah, I don't you combine uh, the sweet

211
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 2: tea with the bourbon, and now you're cooking but little

212
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 2: bourbon with the sweet tea.

213
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 1: No god, no, why would I do that to my bourbon?

214
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 1: I don't understand you. Okay, let me. I think other

215
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 1: people can have it. It's fine, they should have it

216
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 1: other people.

217
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:11,680
Speaker 2: You have seen me casino gaming, I sure have. Every

218
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:13,680
Speaker 2: ten seconds I need to take a sip of something.

219
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: Jack and coke.

220
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 2: Yes, I usually do the jack and coke because if

221
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 2: I just order myself a free bourbon that comes while

222
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 2: I win dozens of dollars playing video poker, I will

223
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 2: go through that bourbon in four seconds, and you know,

224
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 2: four or five bourbons later, you're carrying me out of

225
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 2: the joint.

226
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: So what does that have to do with anything?

227
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 2: So you sometimes you're thinking yourself, I, this is this

228
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 2: is a night, this is this is a full night

229
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 2: of drinking.

230
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 1: You need to have a mixer.

231
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 2: You can't go it's it's gotta slow things down a

232
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 2: little bit. So no what I normally mix sweet tea

233
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 2: and bourbon together. Probably not, but since we're just having

234
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 2: a conversation here, if you had some sweet tea and

235
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 2: some bourbon, I'd drink it for eat drink smoke Nation.

236
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:06,559
Speaker 1: I think you should. I think you should make that

237
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 1: video and share it with them, okay, and I should

238
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: be nowhere in the room. Coca Cola Southern drink. I mean,

239
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: when you get down to Georgia, you order a coke,

240
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 1: what kind, and then you tell them what you want,

241
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 1: like everything's a cokes. Coke is soda in parts of

242
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: the South, absolutely.

243
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 2: And you you need to know that ahead of time

244
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 2: because that you need to be warned because if you

245
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 2: walk into a diner and they ask you what kind

246
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 2: of coke, you're thinking, Oh, cherry coke, diet coke, No,

247
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 2: do you want do doctor pepper coke?

248
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: Do you want? Doctor Pepper's also on the list.

249
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 2: That is absolutely that is like a huge Texas thing.

250
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 2: And I didn't know that until. You know, we have

251
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 2: some friends from Texas and they're like, pride doctor Pepper

252
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 2: out of my dead hand. Try to You're not gonna

253
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 2: be able to.

254
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's another one of those drinks, which it's.

255
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 2: Not for me fingers only. Senior Ah good Man never

256
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 2: had a doctor Pepper in his entire life, eighty seven

257
00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 2: years old. And now I feel like it's a sense

258
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 2: of because I've tried, why don't you have want doctor Pepper? No,

259
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 2: never had one. It's like I don't understand. You know,

260
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 2: we're not gonna get some prize at the end and

261
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 2: you go up to the Pearly gates. Oh, you get

262
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 2: in the express line. You've never had a doctor Pepper.

263
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 1: You don't know that. You know what, I don't know that.

264
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: You don't know that at all. And Arnold Palmer is

265
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: on the list of Southern drinks. Makes perfect sense the

266
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: min Julip said, so talk about Kentucky, the Kentucky Derby.

267
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 1: There was no question. Uh sazarak. Now they're not talking

268
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 1: about sazarak rye. They're talking about the cocktail that is

269
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 1: made with rye. This is uh Nor Orleans. You've got

270
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: the bitterers, You've got the absinthe uh, the sazaa, the sazaraq.

271
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 1: We've discussed this before. Like that's the like, that's the drink,

272
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: that's the that's not the first mixed drink, right, who

273
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: would know, but it is. It's it's one of those

274
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 1: drinks that is like American legend, American institution, and and

275
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 1: it's a rye based drink. A sazarak is is good. Now,

276
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: I'm not an old fashioned guy. I'm not a Manhattan guy.

277
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 1: These these are not my not my things, they never

278
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: have been. But it's I have I have a respect

279
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 1: for the thing. Like I get why people like old fashions.

280
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 1: I know it's not for me, but I absolutely get it.

281
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 1: And there's there really is a difference because I'll sit,

282
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 1: I'll try things when someone does it right, when it's

283
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 1: a good old fashioned right. Yeah, Like you're like you

284
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 1: could so recognize how above the other stuff you've had.

285
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 1: It is when you hit that moment, you're like, yep,

286
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 1: that's for me.

287
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 2: I wish I were more into making cocktails at home

288
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 2: than I am.

289
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 1: Having too much time.

290
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like I'll just pour the bourbon and drink

291
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 2: it right out of the glass. I don't want to

292
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 2: put a lot of I don't want a monkey with

293
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 2: it too much out of it. But but then once

294
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 2: I go to a place, you know, we've been to

295
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 2: places before where they have the specialty Old Fashioned or Manhattan,

296
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 2: is like, oh, that sounds good, And then I think

297
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 2: to myself afterwards, why don't I have more of these?

298
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 1: It's because it takes it takes work. Yeah, it takes

299
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 1: a whole seven minutes.

300
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 2: Yes, and who needs that? Who has the time time?

301
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:15,880
Speaker 1: That's why I don't find anything in my limonade there.

311
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 2: No question, ridiculous value from this cigar. I've had to

312
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 2: touch it up a couple of times, but other than

313
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 2: that it's been pretty maintenance free. That spice is kind

314
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 2: of subdued for me as I've moved into the second

315
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 2: third of the smoke, but that wood node is still there.

316
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,439
Speaker 2: That kind of cash, you know it is there as well.

317
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 2: It's geez for twelve dollars.

318
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 1: I almost want to say there's something a touch herbal

319
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,360
Speaker 1: going on in a very very good way. No, I

320
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 1: like it. I like it a lot. Twelve dollars. Unquestionable

321
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:28,960

324
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 1: with friends, do whatever it is you're gonna do with it.

325
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 1: Really a fan here of what Jason Newman has done.

326
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: Drew fine work, fine work, indeed, and we are drinking

327
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: this right here is a Frasier and Thompson, Michael Boublay

328
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:55,920
Speaker 1: one of the proprietors here. This is a North American whiskey,

329
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: so not a bourbon, non American whiskey. He's Canadian. They're

330
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 1: still they're calling it American whiskey. This to me was

331
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 1: outrageously sweet. Eighty four proof butterscotch note really a light

332
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:12,919
Speaker 1: honey kind of of color, but a butterswat almost overly sweet.

333
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 1: A little bit of orange zest, almost candied orange on

334
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 1: the finish is what I got. You did not get that,

335
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 1: fingers maloy.

336
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,400
Speaker 2: I was not overwhelmed by the sweetness that you're talking about.

337
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,199
Speaker 2: I got some honey, that oak is there, maybe some

338
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 2: caramel and a little bit of spice, and they all

339
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:34,919
Speaker 2: to me kind of melded together nicely, not one note

340
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 2: overwhelming another or anything like that. I thoroughly enjoy it,

341
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,120
Speaker 2: and especially at that price point twenty nine to ninety nine.

342
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 1: It's in my liquor cabinet. But I had to try

343
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 1: it on a cube. I had to see where it

344
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 1: was going to be, how this was going to work,

345
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,439
Speaker 1: because it was it was just too sweet for me,

346
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:57,439
Speaker 1: way too sweet for me as a neat drink. I couldn't.

347
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 1: I couldn't have it even at twenty ninety nine. It

348
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 1: wouldn't be my liquor cabinet because of the sweetness. So

349
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: I added a cube so ice water. It brings down proof.

350
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: Some flavors become more pronounced, some more muter. It kind

351
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 1: of opens up the bourbon or the whiskey. Fingers. Just

352
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,479
Speaker 1: added a little bit of water to his I'm going in.

353
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 2: Oh, he's going in, ladies and gentlemen. He is making

354
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,239
Speaker 2: a second attempt.

355
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 1: It cut the so now there's now there's some spice.

356
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 1: It absolutely cut the sweetness. Now it's just sweet. But

357
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 1: still that finish is oh my god. Yeah, that finish

358
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: is still sweet and there's a little bit of heat

359
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: center chest. So oh, he's going back in. At least

360
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 1: you're giving it more of it, You're giving it a chance.

361
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 1: There's a little bit of oak now on the finish. Okay,

362
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,800
Speaker 1: I can appreciate that that is not my flavor profile,

363
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 1: but I could really appreciate that that is someone's flavor profile.

364
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,440
Speaker 1: And I would be curious. We need to take this

365
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 1: to bartender Brian and see how he makes old fashions

366
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 1: out of this. To me, that it's so there's this

367
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 1: big butterscotch and this big candied orange finish. I'd be

368
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 1: curious to what an old fashion would look like with

369
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 1: this the Fraser and Thompson. It's it's much better on

370
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 1: a cube. It's got more complexity. The sweetness is brought down,

371
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 1: but still it's more sweet than I like. I would

372
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: want more oak. You had a little bit of water

373
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 1: to yours fingers in the way, What say you? He's

374
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 1: going in He's doing the sip right there.

375
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 2: And enchilada Marzapan.

376
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: Nice to me.

377
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 2: It brought out a little bit more of the oak,

378
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 2: and the rest of the notes are kind of the same.

379
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,159
Speaker 2: All I can say to you, Tony, as if you're

380
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,120
Speaker 2: drinking this, you think yourself, it's a beautiful day.

381
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: I'm feeling good.

382
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 2: And if it's around the holidays, you'd have a holly

383
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 2: jolly Christmas.

384
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 1: He went full Boublay, full full blue blaze.

385
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 2: So listen to me. This is a value question, right.

386
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 2: This is an enjoyable drink, yep, under thirty dollars a bottle.

387
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 2: To me, those are the reasons why they would be

388
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 2: in my liquor cabinet. This would be my liquor cabin. Now,

389
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 2: would this be an every day drinker for me? No,

390
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 2: it wouldn't be, but I'd be glad that it's in

391
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 2: the liquor cabinet. I would be happy to serve it

392
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 2: to my guests and drink it myself. I think that

393
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:38,479
Speaker 2: this may be something for people if they aren't a

394
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 2: whiskey drinker. It would still be palatable because you're you know,

395
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 2: you're saying that it may hit them as sweet as

396
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,880
Speaker 2: it's hitting you. So maybe that would be a little

397
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 2: bit more acceptable to a table that may not necessarily say, Okay,

398
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 2: I want some whiskey. I think for under thirty dollars

399
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 2: a bottle, it's it's in my liquor cabin I.

400
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 1: Can appreciate that you'd go that direction, but it's time

401
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 1: Fingers mooy for news of the week.

402
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 2: Well, Tony, we talked about it in the first hour

403
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,879
Speaker 2: that the government is shut down, and because it is

404
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 2: shut down, there wasn't a jobs report correct that was released.

405
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:19,120
Speaker 2: But monster dot com Monster is still a thing, apparently

406
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 2: because I saw the press release. They came out with

407
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 2: their third quarter twenty twenty five job market report right,

408
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 2: and they went through in their minds the the ten

409
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,880
Speaker 2: hottest jobs that are out there right now. If you're

410
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 2: a job seeker and featuring smoke radio host.

411
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 1: Are we having a meeting afterwards? Oh no, No, I

412
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:44,880
Speaker 1: just assume it's a hot job.

413
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 2: Oh no, it's not. But there are actually a few

414
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 2: surprising things on the list.

415
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 1: Okay.

416
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 2: Number ten is a customer service representative. Particularly yeah, for

417
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 2: they're looking for people with bilingual bilinguals skills, and you

418
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 2: have the opportunity to work from home. But we've heard

419
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 2: so much about AI taking over some of these jobs, specifically,

420
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,880
Speaker 2: you know so much of this It can be done

421
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:15,399
Speaker 2: now via chat online, which I did last week when

422
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:19,639
Speaker 2: I was canceling my homeowner's insurance at the old house.

423
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 2: Did that over over chat. You wondered how much of

424
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 2: an impact a I would have on industries like customer service.

425
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 2: But yet it's on the list here. A lot of this,

426
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 2: By the.

427
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 1: Way, that whole chat thing sucks that I haven't you think,

428
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,399
Speaker 1: Oh god, it's terrible. Why I want to talk to people?

429
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 1: Why because I want to talk to you? No, you don't. No.

430
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 2: The problem with this world today, Tony, And I'm going

431
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 2: to quote the great Homer Simpson.

432
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,880
Speaker 1: Communication, too much communication.

433
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 2: That's the problem that we have today, people not talking enough.

434
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 2: That's the future and that's where we should be headed.

435
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 2: Nobody talking, just being angry, uh, sitting alone, listening to eat, rink, smoke,

436
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 2: hoping that it makes them feel better.

437
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:10,879
Speaker 1: Well that part it will will make you.

438
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 2: Feel Some of these things are not surprising. Delivery driver

439
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,719
Speaker 2: number seven, Yeah, I can see that, although we did

440
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 2: a story last week where they're they're starting to bring

441
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 2: the delivery bots in.

442
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's not gonna last. They're all gonna end

443
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,120
Speaker 1: up in a river somewhere. No, they're going to take

444
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 1: over the planet. They're going uh sales rep. Yeah, but

445
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 1: you always need that. I was gonna sell the good.

446
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 2: Yeah. So much of this uh, and we're gonna get

447
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 2: to the healthcare stuff is you know, whether it's product delivery, uh,

448
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:44,439
Speaker 2: product sales or uh.

449
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:44,919
Speaker 1: You know.

450
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 2: One thing that seems to be a common theme and

451
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,960
Speaker 2: has been for some time is there is a great

452
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 2: shortage of truck drivers.

453
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. And so there's this big thought process about the

454
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 1: truck driving world being automated and and uh driverless and

455
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 1: all that. That's not gonna be there for a good,

456
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,239
Speaker 1: good long time. So how are you gonna get things

457
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 1: from point A to point B without the truck driver.

458
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 1: It's it's just a necessity that scares the living scar

459
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 1: big rig going down the road with no driver. That

460
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 1: that sounds terrible. You're asking me to trust Elon too much.

461
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 1: I I nice guy. I'm sure look forward to hanging

462
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 1: out with him. But trust trust the driverless a big rig.

463
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 1: I don't trust the driverless car. No. Number two physical therapist.

464
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,159
Speaker 2: As we have an aging population, more people have to

465
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 2: go to the perfect sense and Number one going again

466
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 2: with the aging population.

467
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:40,399
Speaker 1: Registered nurse. Yeah, our shortage of nurses is is real

468
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 1: and uh and problematic and and as a matter of

469
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 1: just national security, I'm not kidding like that. That needs

470
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 1: to be addressed. That needs to be handled and there

471
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,159
Speaker 1: that we need to think incentive based.

472
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,919
Speaker 2: I think on that, and I don't want to registered

473
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:56,920
Speaker 2: nurse robot.

474
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:04,120
Speaker 1: Not after the first time they say what is old

475
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 1: is new again? I read that in a Hallmark card,

476
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 1: did you good for you? I thought you would have

477
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,840

Speaker 1: Eat Drink Smoke. You should get that done immediately. Gen

483
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 1: Z is a unique generation. On one hand, they seem

484
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 1: to have rejected the insanity of millennials that were hyper

485
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,679
Speaker 1: political all the time, and they're like, you know what,

486
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,880
Speaker 1: can we just live our lives and they're rather health

487
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 1: conscious people. On the downside, they don't seem to do

488
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 1: much dating. They don't seem to do much togetherness things,

489
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 1: if you know what I mean like about togetherness things, Yes,

490
00:27:55,600 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 1: you know what I mean by that's a serious issue.

491
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 1: It's a serious problem in terms of relationships. But going

492
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,480
Speaker 1: back to something, it's interesting they seem to have an

493
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 1: appreciation or desire for things not to be handed to them,

494
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 1: like there's a reason that things of some things of

495
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 1: yesteryear were cooler and better. And so it's a list here,

496
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,360
Speaker 1: we do love a list at Eat Drink Smoke from

497
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 1: Your Tango Your Tango dot com. Seven once forgotten nineties

498
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,440
Speaker 1: relics making a comeback with gen Z. And you were

499
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:35,680
Speaker 1: just talking about your youngest wanting a camera, an actual

500
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: true camera. And it's crazy because that happened with us

501
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 1: like two months ago. My youngest wanted an actual camera

502
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: digital camera, but want not the phone. Wanted an actual camera. Yeah.

503
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 2: The debate, her internal debate was between a digital camera,

504
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 2: which I would argue to her unsuccessfully. Was you already

505
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 2: have one on your phone?

506
00:28:58,120 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 1: Right?

507
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 2: And that might as well have been Charlie Brown's teacher

508
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 2: going wa wanh wah wah wah wah.

509
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: Or did you have to explain to her what Charlie

510
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 1: Brown was? No, I did not. I have Charlie Brown

511
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 1: Christmas on the loop at the house.

512
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 2: Uh. She was going back and forth between the digital

513
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 2: camera and a polaroid, and at that point I thought

514
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 2: I was just being punked, Like why would you want

515
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 2: a polaroid? They're very popular right now with kids. It's

516
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,560
Speaker 2: unreal film Tony by film.

517
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 1: Try and get them to understand what it took to

518
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: develop film. The dark room, the red light, the smell

519
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 1: of the chemicals.

520
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 2: Wait, you you developed your own film?

521
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,479
Speaker 1: Sure? No, I mean not always in high school. Did

522
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 1: you really film class? Absolutely? You never did that.

523
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 2: I mean maybe once in film class, but yeah, when

524
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,360
Speaker 2: I worked for the high school newspaper, what was on

525
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 2: the lunch room beat?

526
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: Were you on the lunch room beat? Yes, them en

527
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 1: rolls twenty percent off, Sloppy Joe's or silent Killers.

528
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 2: Stop the presses.

529
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: My fingers were day line second off. The word on

530
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: the street is that Josie behind the lunch counter is

531
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 1: trying to kill the seven year olds.

532
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 2: It's it's like you were there. It's like you were there,

533
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 2: but no. The you went to the photo matt or

534
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 2: the pharmacy to have your pictures developed, you went.

535
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: To the hut. It was a small hut with one

536
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 1: person in it and had two drive through sides, and

537
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 1: you drop off your film and then, like I don't know,

538
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 1: somewhere between six and one hundred and thirty three days later,

539
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 1: you got your film back with the photos and usually

540
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 1: they were in triplicate and none of them were actually

541
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: what you wanted, and everybody had a red eye. Oh sure,

542
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 1: probably two, but you were excited. That's the one thing

543
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 1: that kids are missing out, well, one of many things.

544
00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 1: The anticipation of going to pick up those photos instead

545
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: of just clicking it and immediately looking at it on

546
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 1: your phone, because you lose it. And everybody who goes

547
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 1: to a concert, and it is recording the whole concert

548
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 1: you just watched on TV. What are you doing? I

549
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 1: don't experience the damn show.

550
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 2: I used to do that, and there are times I

551
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 2: will still videotape a clip of the concert. But then

552
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 2: I started to realize, over you know, a decade of

553
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 2: having a smartphone in my pocket, how many times do

554
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 2: you really revisit those videos?

555
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 1: Zero? Absolutely zero is the answer. Yeah.

556
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 2: So, but I was amazed that you know, you and

557
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 2: I before we started the segment, we're talking about how

558
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 2: both of our kids wanted digital cameras.

559
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 1: One of the other things on this list is a

560
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 1: flip phone. Now there's a really interesting tale in here

561
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: that social media usage is starting to decline. We talked

562
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 1: about doom scrolling earlier, social media and fingers moy if

563
00:31:56,840 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 1: you did not know, as a pastime, monitors social media outrage.

564
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 2: Social media outrage.

565
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: And that's all it is. It is a cesspool. It

566
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 1: is ridiculous, it is It can only make you sad,

567
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 1: It could only make you sick. And kids are like, yeah,

568
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 1: I don't need this in my life. Give me my

569
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 1: group on snap Chat, give me some Instagram where I

570
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 1: see some pictures and I'm done. I don't need the rest.

571
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 1: I am making the move to not look at my

572
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 1: smartphone on weekends. I'm out. I'm done. I need it

573
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 1: for the work that I do in radio, but I

574
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 1: don't need to have a weekend where I'm tempted to

575
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 1: click on Twitter and see what's what. So I am

576
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,160
Speaker 1: getting a flip phone. I had already made this decision.

577
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 1: I didn't see this list, and I'm gonna utilize that

578
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 1: on weekends. You want to call me, you can call me.

579
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,280
Speaker 1: I can still get a text message, but no, or

580
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a different smartphone that has no apps

581
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 1: on it whatsoever. You know, it would be interesting. I

582
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 1: know that sounds crazy. Why don't you just not look

583
00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 1: at the app? But the temptation there, I'm just removing

584
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 1: the temptation.

585
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,680
Speaker 2: It would be interesting if they could somehow develop and

586
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 2: maybe it's out there. And I'm gonna sound ridiculous proposing

587
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 2: this to be able to tie a flip phone into

588
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 2: your smartphone to where it's the same number, same telephone number,

589
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,040
Speaker 2: but you can leave the smartphone behind but just have

590
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:22,480
Speaker 2: your flip phone and the call, you know, would go

591
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 2: immediately to your.

592
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 1: Flip phone instead.

593
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 2: Of having to do some call forwarding or all that

594
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 2: other stuff that you you know, back in the day,

595
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 2: because that would be a great idea, Like you say,

596
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 2: you have two of the phones on one number, so

597
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 2: people aren't, oh I got to call on the other

598
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 2: number on the weekend and all that stuff.

599
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 1: I think people are gonna listen to me and be like, Tony,

600
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: that's crazy. Just don't look at the dang app. Just

601
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 1: don't look at it. But I don't. I don't even

602
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: want it there. I want to have this very proactive

603
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 1: separation in these parts of my life because I want

604
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 1: more of my downtime to be family focused or other focused.

605
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:00,719
Speaker 1: But I'm in I just don't want it there. But

606
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 1: you're right.

607
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 2: I'm just showing Tony my phone right now, and you look.

608
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 2: You just think about the number of apps. Oh my god,

609
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 2: that you acquire. What is that he's on page thirteen? Yeah,

610
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 2: thirteen pages of apps? Absolutely, you don't know when you're

611
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 2: gonna need the Texas Roadhouse app or then yeah two huh,

612
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 2: there's half of one. Yeah, but you've you've made folders

613
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,960
