One of the things 20 00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:46.640 that just shocked me was al Jirou when they got when he just kept saying 21 00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:48.799 bring another bottle, Bring another bottle, and people are like, wait, 22 00:01:48.799 --> 00:01:52.879 what's going on. He had to sing a solo and they recorded him trying 23 00:01:52.879 --> 00:01:57.519 to record a soul. He was hammered. Interesting.

Now, I had gone the entire month of 54 00:03:54.919 --> 00:04:00.759 January dry, no alcohol for the entire month of January, just because I 55 00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:02.199 wanted to give my body a detox. I wanted to see if I could 56 00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:06.479 do it, challenge myself, and I succeeded. I completely went alcohol free 57 00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:10.879 the entire month of January. So I had all these n A beers that 58 00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:13.960 I bought, you know, sampling them, and I'm gonna post which ones 59 00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:15.560 I liked them, which ones I didn't.

But before we do any of that, what we're going to discuss 170 00:11:52.080 --> 00:11:54.919 is, let's recap the beers that we brought the table thanks to our friends 171 00:11:54.919 --> 00:12:00.360 over at the backyard group. I kicked it off with the cir Nevada Alcoholic 172 00:12:00.440 --> 00:12:05.559 Trail Pass I PA. Now I did the entire drive January no alcohol for 173 00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:07.759 the entire month, but I still have some beers left over, and I 174 00:12:07.759 --> 00:12:13.000 thought to myself, you know, I'm not gonna sit back and drink these 175 00:12:13.320 --> 00:12:16.720 because I'm gonna I got other beers I gonna drink. So I'd rather just 176 00:12:16.000 --> 00:12:18.320 drink them on the show talk a little bit about it, because there are 177 00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:22.720 people out there that you know that they drink no alcohol beer all the time. 178 00:12:22.799 --> 00:12:26.919 And so I've decided, you know what, this week, I'm gonna 179 00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:31.799 drink the n A beers for one last show. Well, the Flagship February 180 00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:37.039 never really took off. It did take off, but then it kind of 181 00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:39.840 just fizzled out. Yeah, well, yeah, it was cool for one 182 00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:43.919 year and then it kind of died. And so if Flagship February is not 183 00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:48.960 going to be a thing, then might as well do an extension of Dry 184 00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:52.279 January, just at least on the show. To get rid of your supplyes 185 00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:54.720 just getting rid of my supply. So that's what I kicked it off. 186 00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:58.440 The trail pass ninety six calidaries, no ninety five calori excuse me, and 187 00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:03.840 very trop mosaic citrus hops, a little pintiness to it, which I like. 188 00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:07.320 And yeah, like I said, they've dialed it in. They have 189 00:13:07.399 --> 00:13:11.399 got it dialed in on these n A beers. And then Chad, who's 190 00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:16.279 got food poisoning. I can't believe he's drinking a beer. That's amazing to 191 00:13:16.279 --> 00:13:18.759 me. I thought he was just the pounding pedialytes. Well, I know 192 00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:22.279 it's food poisoning is just an awful thing. I mean, you're just your 193 00:13:22.320 --> 00:13:26.960 guts wretching, and yeah, you're heaving and heaving, and it's bad. 194 00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:31.000 I was in bad, bad shape. Yeah, James went on dry January 195 00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:35.279 lost one pound. I think I lost. I think I lost about twelve 196 00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:39.279 in about a twenty four hour period because I was just even. So I 197 00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:43.559 wasn't sure if I was gonna go ahead and do it. But but I 198 00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:46.720 found in my fridge, and I didn't want the beer to go bad. 199 00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:50.399 But I found a can of wax Wings double ipa, a collaboration beer with 200 00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:56.039 the Barrel Theory Brewery, and it's called are you sure about that? From 201 00:13:56.080 --> 00:14:05.279 wax wings Bury Kalmazoo Michigan Frickin Delicious Beer wax Wings We got a listener, 202 00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:07.480 Larry, there's our first name drop of the show, because al Jaude and 203 00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:13.120 what's the other guy? You just mentioned from We Are the World, Harry. 204 00:14:13.559 --> 00:14:16.240 They don't know us, so we gotta go. We gotta give Larry 205 00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:20.639 the name drop. But uh, he says, that's the best brewery in 206 00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:26.559 Michigan. That's his words, not mine. I I go in there and 207 00:14:26.600 --> 00:14:28.840 I find things I love, and I go in there I find things that 208 00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:33.279 not my style. But this one it wasn't my favorite beers when we went 209 00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:37.960 there. Yeah, this one though. I gotta tell you, this particular 210 00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:41.879 beer scratches right where I itch because it's a hazy I p A that has 211 00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:46.000 It's not overly tropical. It's got great balance, but it still tastes like 212 00:14:46.039 --> 00:14:50.600 an I p A. You get bitterness and some dryness from it. It 213 00:14:50.639 --> 00:14:56.600 doesn't. It's not sticky and cloying and uh, really nice refreshing beer for 214 00:14:56.639 --> 00:15:00.519 a double I p A. That's hazy.

All right now the official What's on Tap Radio fun 224 00:15:35.480 --> 00:15:39.679 Fact of the Week, brought to you by Who's Ever Checked Clear? This 225 00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:43.799 week. I can't really lie to my doctor because it's easy to you know, 226 00:15:43.120 --> 00:15:46.679 call me out because I have a radio show about beer, so she 227 00:15:46.679 --> 00:15:48.919 can easily just tune in and be like, hey, didn't you tell me 228 00:15:48.960 --> 00:15:52.519 that you weren't drinking, because I definitely heard the show the other day and 229 00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:56.399 you said you were, so I have to be honest. Yeah you do, 230 00:15:56.679 --> 00:15:58.559 all right? All right? Well well yeah. One of the other 231 00:15:58.559 --> 00:16:00.039 things I discovered. I was thinking about doing fun fact about this since I 232 00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:07.919 had food poisoning. There are studies that suggest that drinking alcohol with your meal 233 00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:15.600 will reduce your chances of getting food poisoning. I did not know this because 234 00:16:17.200 --> 00:16:18.440 I know so here I am, I'm coming out of food poisoning. I 235 00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:21.200 wanted to look up. I wanted to, you know, take care of 236 00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:23.360 my body just say, hey, is it a good idea? Is it 237 00:16:23.399 --> 00:16:26.320 a bad idea? Or does it not matter? You know? Should I 238 00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:29.960 be having a beer? You know, I'm thinking about getting one, And 239 00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:32.519 that's why I said, are you sure about that? That's what I'm drinking 240 00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:37.759 from wax Wings. And I wasn't sure about that, so I asked, 241 00:16:37.960 --> 00:16:41.200 and I wanted to find out. And turns out that beer after you've got 242 00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:47.600 food poisoning no good, no good at all. It does not help you 243 00:16:47.639 --> 00:16:49.840 feel better. It will not make it go away faster. Sorry, But 244 00:16:51.639 --> 00:16:55.799 so if I start feeling bad, I'm switching over to the Kirkland signature purified 245 00:16:56.080 --> 00:17:03.039 water. But studies suggests that drinking alcohol with your meal will reduce your chances 246 00:17:03.080 --> 00:17:06.359 of getting food poisoning. All right, anyway, that's your fun fact week 247 00:17:06.440 --> 00:17:08.799 n I got another fun fact for you here, no way. So, 248 00:17:10.119 --> 00:17:12.799 in all my travels over the years, I've had the privilege of visiting some 249 00:17:12.839 --> 00:17:17.160 of the finest cities. By the way, USA today just recently came out 250 00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:22.839 with another list of the top beer cities in the country. If you're wondering 251 00:17:22.920 --> 00:17:25.480 what that list looks like, it looks just like the one from last year 252 00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:29.000 and the year before that and the year before that. So we decided to 253 00:17:29.000 --> 00:17:32.039 cut that one. We did take that one, and we took scissors to 254 00:17:32.119 --> 00:17:34.599 that and it's on the cutting room floor. We are not going to talk 255 00:17:34.640 --> 00:17:41.440 about that on today's show. However. One city that is on there is 256 00:17:41.559 --> 00:17:45.880 Fort Collins, Colorado. Great absolutely great city, beer city. I've been 257 00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:49.680 there many times. It's about an hour hour and a half north of Denver, 258 00:17:49.920 --> 00:17:56.559 Colorado, and they are known for having just an explosive and fantastic beer 259 00:17:56.599 --> 00:18:00.880 scene, most notably New Belgium Brews Company. Oh yeah, the makers of 260 00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:07.240 Fat Tire. And yeah, Kim Jordan, yep, she knows us. 261 00:18:07.279 --> 00:18:08.759 There's a name drop right there, even though I don't. I don't know 262 00:18:08.799 --> 00:18:12.880 if she owns it anymore. She sold it to a foreign entity, but 263 00:18:14.240 --> 00:18:17.319 no longer a craft Bury according to the Brewers Association, but still friends. 264 00:18:17.319 --> 00:18:21.200 But they're in Fort Collins. They have twenty four breweries in this town. 265 00:18:21.240 --> 00:18:23.400 It's not a huge booming town, but twenty four breweries. That's that's a 266 00:18:23.440 --> 00:18:29.559 nice little concentration college college town. Yeah, oh it is, that's true. 267 00:18:29.640 --> 00:18:33.119 That's true. Well, there is there's an area, or there are 268 00:18:33.160 --> 00:18:36.920 areas all over the country in these fine cities that have brewery districts, and 269 00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:41.720 they will name the streets after beers. In the brewery districts, however, 270 00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:49.400 there is a Fort Collins neighborhood, a residential neighborhood that has beer themed streets. 271 00:18:49.440 --> 00:18:55.200 So you're official What's on tap radio fun fact of the week is that 272 00:18:55.440 --> 00:19:00.720 Fort Collins, unlike other major beer cities which have brewery districts and breweries near 273 00:19:00.759 --> 00:19:04.880 them, which names streets after beers, has a residential neighborhood with beer themed 274 00:19:06.039 --> 00:19:11.119 streets including Lagger Street, Stout Street, Lambic Street, Box Street, Duncle 275 00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:15.680 Street, Trappess Street, Sayson Street, Pilsner Street, pale Ale Street, 276 00:19:15.000 --> 00:19:19.480 Shandy Street, and Pint Street.

You can't see you, but I was doing 287 00:20:15.519 --> 00:20:19.000 jazz hands. Keep the vibe, keep the bye. Oh you're Another fun 288 00:20:19.000 --> 00:20:22.559 fact about the making we are the world? Well, okay, I'll tell 289 00:20:22.559 --> 00:20:26.920 you. You know, Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie they avoided any dated expressions 290 00:20:26.920 --> 00:20:29.960 when they wrote the song, you know, like saying like right on or 291 00:20:30.079 --> 00:20:36.759 yo dog. They wanted to make sure the lyrics were timeless. Also, 292 00:20:36.839 --> 00:20:41.000 there was a moment whenever, according to the documentary, where Lionel Richie was 293 00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:45.240 at Michael Jackson's house and it turned into like wild Kingdom because he was sitting 294 00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:49.400 there and trying to come up with the lines and the lyrics and how they're 295 00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:55.519 going to do it. And Michael says the Lionel Richie says, you know 296 00:20:55.559 --> 00:20:57.440 what you need to do. You need to go see Bobo. She's like 297 00:20:57.480 --> 00:21:00.359 what. He's like, that's my chimp and he's like you need to cuddle 298 00:21:00.359 --> 00:21:06.079 with the chimp, like what you need to cuddle with the chimp to come 299 00:21:06.200 --> 00:21:10.599 up with lyrics in the melody for the song. And then while he was 300 00:21:10.599 --> 00:21:12.799 there, I guess he had a talking exotic bird that got into a fight 301 00:21:12.839 --> 00:21:17.480 with a dog, and then a bunch of records got knocked over by a 302 00:21:17.480 --> 00:21:22.680 bull constrictor or python. Python, So I know he was just freaked out. 303 00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:23.960 He's like, man, I gotta get out of this house. The 304 00:21:25.039 --> 00:21:30.440 chimpanzees and talking birds, barking dogs and snakes. But it worked because he 305 00:21:30.519 --> 00:21:33.000 had a great verse. He kicked it off. He kicked the whole song 306 00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:37.319 off. Did Yeah, he did. He got the whole thing started. 307 00:21:37.359 --> 00:21:41.480 Speaking of kicking things off, we kicked things off to start the show, 308 00:21:41.559 --> 00:21:48.119 James decided he was going to continue with liquidating his non alcoholic beer. And 309 00:21:48.640 --> 00:21:52.359 I just want to point this out now. I'm not you be the judge. 310 00:21:53.160 --> 00:21:59.599 I'm not saying cause and effect, but you be the judge. Thesis 311 00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:03.480 in Rochester, Minnesota, been open for five years. Great name for a 312 00:22:03.559 --> 00:22:08.440 brewery. Yeah, Thesis, it's actually the Thesis Beer Project. Okay, 313 00:22:08.480 --> 00:22:12.119 I like that. That's good. Yeah, Yeah, solid brewery, cool, 314 00:22:12.279 --> 00:22:17.519 cool little place. I checked it out. And at their current pace, 315 00:22:17.920 --> 00:22:21.279 they're struggling like a lot of breweries are. We're gonna be talking about 316 00:22:21.279 --> 00:22:25.599 that one brewery. Don't worry, We'll get to it eventually. But Thesis 317 00:22:26.039 --> 00:22:33.920 announced that January twenty twenty four was their worst month ever for beer sales in 318 00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:41.640 the company's five years or five year history. James, this was dry January. 319 00:22:41.799 --> 00:22:44.799 I know where you're going. You are killing brewer. Okay, sorry, 320 00:22:44.799 --> 00:22:48.359 you be the judge, folks. Is James killing breweries? Is dry 321 00:22:48.480 --> 00:22:56.119 January killing breweries? His Thesis beer projects the worst beer month ever, the 322 00:22:56.240 --> 00:23:02.799 byproduct of people not drinking outcohol for dry January. Well, I'm gonna say 323 00:23:02.839 --> 00:23:06.359 no, and I'll tell you why. Because the beers I brought to this 324 00:23:06.960 --> 00:23:11.599 show throughout the month of January pretty much all craft breweries. He had Sierra 325 00:23:11.680 --> 00:23:15.559 Nevada, I had Samuel Adams, I had Athletic, I had Shiner. 326 00:23:17.079 --> 00:23:18.599 What are they all have in common, Chad? Yeah, it all came 327 00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:22.960 from breweries. They're all craft breweries. Yeah. Now, but hold on, 328 00:23:22.119 --> 00:23:25.359 let me ask this. This is a real question. I don't know. 329 00:23:25.440 --> 00:23:30.160 I'm not on the non alcoholic kick. If you are going to have 330 00:23:30.240 --> 00:23:36.279 a session where you're drinking with your friends. Not we're talking regular full strength 331 00:23:36.319 --> 00:23:38.680 beer. You're gonna sit down, You're gonna have two, three, maybe 332 00:23:38.759 --> 00:23:42.359 four whatever. You know, be responsible, don't do things stupid. But 333 00:23:45.200 --> 00:23:48.039 are you gonna sit down and drink three or four non alcoholic beers or even 334 00:23:48.039 --> 00:23:56.039 two? When I was smoking, I was smoking some ribs. Yeah, 335 00:23:56.079 --> 00:23:59.000 and I was watching football. Yeah, I had a couple of A beers 336 00:23:59.079 --> 00:24:02.960 as I was smoking the the ribs. But would you Are you drinking less 337 00:24:03.119 --> 00:24:06.640 n A beers fewer A beers than you would normally drink? Yes, And 338 00:24:06.640 --> 00:24:10.960 I'll tell you why, because I don't have as many. Oh okay, 339 00:24:11.480 --> 00:24:14.119 all right, moving on. But if I had as many, then uh 340 00:24:14.200 --> 00:24:17.200 then maybe. But I you know, I only had so much, and 341 00:24:17.240 --> 00:24:18.799 I had like maybe a six pack or so, and I'm not going to 342 00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:22.240 drink all six you know, in one sitting. I'll drink you know. 343 00:24:22.279 --> 00:24:26.400 Maybe I think I had my three. But the only I think, the 344 00:24:26.440 --> 00:24:30.640 only non craft brewery in Aber I had was he Heinekan, which was really 345 00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:33.240 really good. I was like one of my actually my favorites. But hey, 346 00:24:33.240 --> 00:24:34.519 speaking of dry January, I want to piggyback off this real quick. 347 00:24:36.400 --> 00:24:38.519 Uh, I want to ask how peoples dried January went. Good news is 348 00:24:38.519 --> 00:24:42.319 it's over, but chances are you probably already started drinking again. A lot 349 00:24:42.359 --> 00:24:45.759 of people don't go the entire month. They go, you know what, 350 00:24:45.880 --> 00:24:51.279 I screw it. But just because you know we're in a new month doesn't 351 00:24:51.319 --> 00:24:56.559 mean that you can't drink with a healthier options. And so a dietician had 352 00:24:56.880 --> 00:25:03.759 come out and broke down choosing a healthier beverage and looking at things with lower 353 00:25:03.799 --> 00:25:08.200 sugar and higher healthy ingredients. And it came out of the list of some 354 00:25:08.440 --> 00:25:12.920 healthy alcoholic beverages. So if you continue, you know, trying to keep 355 00:25:12.920 --> 00:25:18.440 that body slim, here's some options from this dietitian, says Hard Seltzer. 356 00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:22.799 So most are just sparkling water with clear liquor like tequila or vodka. Just 357 00:25:22.839 --> 00:25:27.240 look for the ones who know added sugar. They said red wine. It's 358 00:25:27.319 --> 00:25:33.200 chock full of antioxidants which reduced to inflammation and help prevent cancer and heart disease. 359 00:25:33.119 --> 00:25:37.640 Number three on the list Bloody Marry's tomato juice typically doesn't have a lot 360 00:25:37.640 --> 00:25:41.920 of sugar. Plus what other alcoholic beverages comes with celery Of course, chad 361 00:25:41.960 --> 00:25:47.200 gets very sick. If he drinks bloody marries, allergic tomato tomatoes, or 362 00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:49.720 the Hot Toddies. It's just hot water, fresh limon juice, honey and 363 00:25:49.759 --> 00:25:53.920 whiskey. It's about as healthy as it gets. But notice on this list, 364 00:25:55.559 --> 00:25:57.920 beer did not make the cut. No way, I don't understand it 365 00:25:59.160 --> 00:26:02.880 said right there on the bottom of the article. Beer did not make the 366 00:26:02.920 --> 00:26:07.559 cut. So if you're looking for some healthy options, you know this early 367 00:26:07.640 --> 00:26:11.200 in the year, try hard Seltzer's red wine, Bloody Mary's, or Hot 368 00:26:11.240 --> 00:26:15.119 Toddies. According to a dice somebody who this is a hip piece on beer, 369 00:26:15.200 --> 00:26:17.759 that's all it is. They're trying to kill the beer industry, just 370 00:26:17.799 --> 00:26:18.960 like you guys who were doing dry Janu. All right, maybe not. 371 00:26:19.000 --> 00:26:22.759 I'm telling you I had if more craft breweries did it in a option, 372 00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:26.640 which I feel they should. I know it's more expensive, but they could 373 00:26:26.640 --> 00:26:30.240 get a new demo. But is that demo big enough? I don't know. 374 00:26:30.279 --> 00:26:33.480 I'm not saying. I guess it wouldn't be their target audience. But 375 00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:37.559 they'll get you know, some new customers, new consumers, yep, I 376 00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:41.160 know, I know, all right, lots of business they need. I'll 377 00:26:41.200 --> 00:26:45.799 tell you where they need in a beer Vietnam. Yeah, and a beer 378 00:26:45.839 --> 00:26:49.400 in Vietnam might actually save some of the businesses. But then again, who 379 00:26:49.440 --> 00:26:53.279 knows, maybe people will just stay away. But right now, zero point 380 00:26:53.400 --> 00:27:00.000 zero is killing businesses in Vietnam, but not the way you're thinking, because 381 00:27:00.039 --> 00:27:03.640 as you're thinking, non alcoholic beer is killing businesses. But as James just 382 00:27:03.680 --> 00:27:07.000 said, they need non alcoholic beer. No, we're not talking zero point 383 00:27:07.079 --> 00:27:12.400 zero ABV. But Vietnam, which is a community that is known for having 384 00:27:12.400 --> 00:27:18.799 a blustering nightlife and lots of activity, the food scene, the bar scene, 385 00:27:19.079 --> 00:27:26.440 dancing, crowded streets. Oh yes, good ammen, ammen, all 386 00:27:26.519 --> 00:27:33.519 that it's come to a screeching halt. And the reason zero point zero. 387 00:27:33.640 --> 00:27:38.599 And as I said, not non alcoholic beer, but the country's hard crackdown 388 00:27:38.759 --> 00:27:47.880 on drunk driving. They now have imposed well a law that says zero point 389 00:27:48.079 --> 00:27:52.599 zero if you're going to operate a vehicle. Now most people in Vietnam operate 390 00:27:52.880 --> 00:27:57.200 motorcycles and scooters. There are some cars as well. But if you're operating 391 00:27:57.200 --> 00:28:02.680 a motor vehicle and you have even a trace of alcohol on your breath, 392 00:28:03.359 --> 00:28:06.720 you will be cited with a dui. Now, this is a law that 393 00:28:06.759 --> 00:28:11.319 went into place in twenty nineteen, but they really haven't cracked down and enforced 394 00:28:11.359 --> 00:28:17.319 it until just recently. You might be thinking there was a huge uptick in 395 00:28:17.559 --> 00:28:22.400 deaths or injuries. Well there wasn't. They just decided to start enforcing it. 396 00:28:22.680 --> 00:28:29.119 In the last two months of twenty twenty three, Vietnam put in its 397 00:28:29.279 --> 00:28:37.440 most strict crack down on the anti drunk driving campaign. So there are several 398 00:28:37.440 --> 00:28:41.160 people who spoke with reporters and we got some quotes, but some of the 399 00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:48.000 quotes are kind of funny, but they did not want to go on record. 400 00:28:48.440 --> 00:28:49.960 They wanted to do it anonymously. I'm not sure why that is, 401 00:28:51.000 --> 00:28:55.400 but they said that they think the law is too strict because you can go 402 00:28:55.440 --> 00:29:00.519 out and have two beers and most of the beer, bijoi beer comes in 403 00:29:00.640 --> 00:29:03.440 at right around three and a half to four percent, and you can have 404 00:29:03.480 --> 00:29:07.680 a couple of those beers and be just fine. You're not drunk, And 405 00:29:07.720 --> 00:29:12.000 they don't think that that's a good indication of impaired driving. So what they're 406 00:29:12.039 --> 00:29:18.200 asking police to do is do away with the breathalyzer and make them do some 407 00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:23.359 sort of a zig zag formation or dance or obstacle course they're actually coming up 408 00:29:23.519 --> 00:29:30.680 with any kind of agility or some sort of physical challenge to prove that you 409 00:29:30.960 --> 00:29:37.680 have the ability to operate a motor vehicle. But they said that this is 410 00:29:37.799 --> 00:29:41.519 the zero point zero is too strict. Now, how is this affecting businesses? 411 00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:48.400 Because the cops are setting up checkpoints right outside the bestros and restaurants and 412 00:29:48.480 --> 00:29:53.920 bars, so the second you walk out, you are checked. And this 413 00:29:55.039 --> 00:29:59.039 is causing people to stay home. So now all the clubs, all the 414 00:29:59.079 --> 00:30:03.279 bars, all the rest restaurants, nobody's going out now. No word whether 415 00:30:03.319 --> 00:30:07.000 or not they're going to continue this crackdown like they did the last two months 416 00:30:07.559 --> 00:30:11.799 of twenty twenty three. But if they do, breweries are going to suffer 417 00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:18.519 because the Hanoi ton Hl Beer Company their fourth quarter sales went down eleven percent 418 00:30:18.880 --> 00:30:25.640 and the Saigang Hanoi Beer Company their profits dropped twenty five percent. So what 419 00:30:25.680 --> 00:30:27.640 do you think, James, I think they should use it. I think 420 00:30:27.759 --> 00:30:33.759 Uber should really be doing well over there, or lift one of those right 421 00:30:33.799 --> 00:30:37.799 share companies. Taxis something I mean they can't did they not? They insist 422 00:30:37.880 --> 00:30:40.720 on driving I don't understand that. What about a rickshaw? I mean something 423 00:30:40.799 --> 00:30:44.160 anything, all right. I guess they don't have right shares over there in 424 00:30:44.200 --> 00:30:45.799 Vietnam. I don't know. Hey, we gotta take your break still to 425 00:30:45.839 --> 00:30:48.640 come. We're gonna talk about the wol Free beer. Remember we talked about 426 00:30:48.680 --> 00:30:53.160 that. How's it doing? And uh also Miller LTEs they're getting ready for 427 00:30:53.200 --> 00:30:56.119 Super Bowl. What their plans are. We'll discuss all this so much more. 428 00:30:56.160 --> 00:31:02.359 We'll be right back. After reading about the evils of drinking. We 429 00:31:02.519 --> 00:31:10.000 made up our mind. We're gonna stop reading. What's on Tap Radio continues 430 00:31:10.519 --> 00:31:27.200 with James Simpson and Chad Pilbeam a lot of interesting fun facts in front of 431 00:31:27.279 --> 00:31:33.480 us about the making of We Are the World. Yeah, I know, 432 00:31:33.519 --> 00:31:38.960 we just watched the documentary on it, and well, Stevie Wonder. They 433 00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:45.200 really wanted to get Stevie Wonder into this all along, and they kept calling 434 00:31:45.279 --> 00:31:48.759 and calling. This is before social media and everything else. You had to 435 00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:51.640 go through assistance and try and get him and leave messages and hope he calls 436 00:31:51.680 --> 00:31:56.000 you back. And he never called back. He just showed up and he 437 00:31:56.079 --> 00:31:59.759 walks in and he thought they were gonna write the song and he was like, 438 00:31:59.799 --> 00:32:02.559 no, we're actually recording. Time to go and then right in the 439 00:32:02.559 --> 00:32:08.799 middle of it, no joke, he starts singing we Are the World in 440 00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:15.400 Swahili, and he says, we need some Swahili in here. And when 441 00:32:15.440 --> 00:32:20.480 Waylon Jennings heard that, he walked out the door. Waylon Jenning's just a 442 00:32:20.519 --> 00:32:24.039 good old boy. Yep, he says, ain't been no good old boy 443 00:32:24.079 --> 00:32:28.160 singing Swahili. He ain't gonna start now. And he walked out and he 444 00:32:28.240 --> 00:32:32.240 was just he came out. He was on the back riser and uh he 445 00:32:32.559 --> 00:32:37.400 uh walked down the risers, went to the door and walked out. Didn't 446 00:32:37.400 --> 00:32:40.960 say goodbye, kiss my butt, nothing. He was gone, just left 447 00:32:42.680 --> 00:32:45.319 all because Stevie Wonder was singing we Are the World in Swahili and he was 448 00:32:45.359 --> 00:32:51.559 trying to get inserted into the song. Speaking of Stevie Wonder, at this 449 00:32:51.680 --> 00:32:55.440 time, Eddie Murphy missed a chance to be there because Eddie was at Stevie 450 00:32:55.440 --> 00:32:59.599 Wonder studio recording as single Remember Party All the Time, which we kicked the 451 00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:04.640 show off with. So Stevie asked Eddie Murphy to come over, but Eddie 452 00:33:04.680 --> 00:33:09.599 declined. When he realized what he passed up, Eddie Murphy felt like an 453 00:33:09.599 --> 00:33:15.839 idiot. History Meanwhile, dan Ackroyd's going ha ha because he took part by 454 00:33:15.880 --> 00:33:20.279 accidents. He just happened to be talking to talent manager that day and the 455 00:33:20.279 --> 00:33:24.880 guy invited into the recording session. Hey, what's come on over dan Ackroyd? 456 00:33:24.920 --> 00:33:30.200 That musical sensation. Wait, he's not a musician. Nope, he's 457 00:33:30.200 --> 00:33:32.079 not a singer either. No, how did he get invited We Are the 458 00:33:32.079 --> 00:33:38.400 World? And the thing is is they listed the uh, the participants in 459 00:33:38.599 --> 00:33:43.680 alphabetical order by last name, so when you look at it, dan Ackroyd's 460 00:33:43.640 --> 00:33:46.680 is the first name you see on the list. So he's not buried in 461 00:33:46.720 --> 00:33:51.759 there all because the talent manager invited him and he came over, and you 462 00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:57.200 know he took the invite. Hey uh, speaking of artists that if they 463 00:33:57.359 --> 00:34:00.440 redid We Are the World, possibly could be a part of it. Jelly 464 00:34:00.519 --> 00:34:05.640 Roll very popular artist. Now for those who don't know who jelly Roll is, 465 00:34:05.920 --> 00:34:09.320 I like jelly Roll fan. I like his story, his story, 466 00:34:09.320 --> 00:34:14.280 I like his personality. I'm not the biggest fan of his music. I'm 467 00:34:14.280 --> 00:34:17.440 not either, but I like him as a person. He came up poor 468 00:34:19.079 --> 00:34:22.239 and you know, now he's a very successful singer. He went for he 469 00:34:22.280 --> 00:34:23.599 had a lot of bad things. He ended up in prison, right, 470 00:34:23.679 --> 00:34:27.920 But he went in front of Congress not too long ago talking about the fetanol 471 00:34:28.119 --> 00:34:31.199 addictions and so forth, and how they need to have tougher laws on fetanyl. 472 00:34:31.800 --> 00:34:35.480 But this interview just resurfaced. Now. This is I don't know, 473 00:34:35.519 --> 00:34:39.599 I'm not sure when this interview took place, but uh, maybe a few 474 00:34:39.639 --> 00:34:43.599 years ago. But I want to know, is he Jelly Roll knows how 475 00:34:43.599 --> 00:34:46.760 to get clicks and Yeah, all you have to do is question the manhood 476 00:34:46.760 --> 00:34:51.559 of beer drinkers and you'll get all kind of hot takes. So I just 477 00:34:51.559 --> 00:34:53.679 came we came across this interview a few months ago where Jelly Roll made a 478 00:34:53.800 --> 00:34:59.280 very bold claim that's sure to ruffle some feathers. So here's what he said. 479 00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:04.159 Jelly said, I've always looked at beer as a man's version of wine. 480 00:35:04.599 --> 00:35:07.840 It's kind of like something you know, girls would do. I don't 481 00:35:07.880 --> 00:35:12.239 know about you, but them are fighting words. He went on to say, 482 00:35:12.320 --> 00:35:15.239 when a dude's like, oh, I drink ten beers, I'm like, 483 00:35:15.400 --> 00:35:19.239 oh, you could have drank three shots like a real man. What's 484 00:35:19.239 --> 00:35:22.719 funny about this? Later in the interview, his wife Bunny threw him under 485 00:35:22.719 --> 00:35:28.079 the bus and said he couldn't drink beer because it makes his tummy hurt. 486 00:35:29.320 --> 00:35:32.920 So apparently jelly rolls he has a gluten analogy and never had beer, and 487 00:35:32.960 --> 00:35:37.880 he admitted very few things are more embarrassing than his wife saying publicly about his 488 00:35:38.000 --> 00:35:45.639 tummy hurting. So jelly roll calls beer men's version of wine. Now let's 489 00:35:45.639 --> 00:35:50.440 say you do you agree with this, and you can go to our social 490 00:35:50.480 --> 00:35:53.519 media at What's on Tap Radio, Facebook, x, Instagram, and TikTok, 491 00:35:54.199 --> 00:35:58.039 or reach out to us at What's on Tap Radio at gmail dot com. 492 00:35:58.039 --> 00:36:01.639 But interesting words there, So what is I'm trying to understand his point? 493 00:36:01.719 --> 00:36:06.599 Is he saying that everyone should just be drinking hard liquor? Pretty much? 494 00:36:07.480 --> 00:36:10.159 Okay, if you're sitting around drinking beer like women drink wine, why 495 00:36:10.199 --> 00:36:15.639 don't you be a man and take shots? Says the guy who was addicted 496 00:36:15.639 --> 00:36:21.559 to drugs and ended up in prison. And now he's got who has by 497 00:36:21.559 --> 00:36:23.320 the way, who has more tattoos him? Or post malone? You know, 498 00:36:23.320 --> 00:36:25.840 he's so funny when you before you even finish that sentence, I thought 499 00:36:25.840 --> 00:36:29.039 you were gonna say, he's gotta say post molon. It's gotta say post 500 00:36:29.079 --> 00:36:30.360 alone. There you go post alone. I don't know. It's a good 501 00:36:30.440 --> 00:36:36.400 question. They both have a lot of facial tattoos. But uh yeah, 502 00:36:36.440 --> 00:36:40.719 he's come through, he's battled his addictions and he's very successful. And uh 503 00:36:40.760 --> 00:36:43.159 yeah, he came out. I'm not, like I said, I'm not 504 00:36:43.199 --> 00:36:45.800 sure when this interview aired or you don't know where it was, but uh 505 00:36:45.840 --> 00:36:49.440 yeah, I was just doing some digging and came across. I was like, 506 00:36:49.440 --> 00:36:51.840 wait a minute, that's interesting. But maybe there's people out there that 507 00:36:51.880 --> 00:36:53.920 agree with him. I don't know. I don't know. Well, the 508 00:36:53.960 --> 00:36:59.079 thing about him is he's kind of the common man man's but yet correct me 509 00:36:59.119 --> 00:37:00.880 if I'm wrong. I mean, I don't don't think he drinks at all. 510 00:37:00.920 --> 00:37:04.079 I don't think he does. I think he's he's free and clear, 511 00:37:04.639 --> 00:37:08.639 Bible Jay sober as a judge, as they used to say. But I 512 00:37:08.800 --> 00:37:14.800 like to think that Jelly Roll, who's he's a big boy. He's a 513 00:37:14.880 --> 00:37:20.880 large statuted individual, and you know he he he stands out. It looks 514 00:37:20.880 --> 00:37:22.119 like the kind of guy that knows how to throw down and knows how to 515 00:37:22.159 --> 00:37:25.519 party. And I like to think, could you ever see a golf club 516 00:37:25.519 --> 00:37:30.519 in that guy's hands out there on the course with maybe some like Stuart Payne, 517 00:37:30.519 --> 00:37:37.599 Stewart Nickers and a little cute cap and golfing. It's very odd because 518 00:37:37.639 --> 00:37:40.960 when you think of golf, that's the last thing you think about partian. 519 00:37:42.760 --> 00:37:45.199 But somehow in the last I don't know how long because I don't really watch 520 00:37:45.239 --> 00:37:51.559 golf, but now partying is associated with golf. Well it's we've talked about 521 00:37:51.599 --> 00:37:57.239 this before the Waste Management Phoenix opened, and it's coming back. It's it's 522 00:37:57.280 --> 00:38:00.760 gonna happen, and uh, this is pretty odd awesome. It is known 523 00:38:01.679 --> 00:38:07.360 for really three things. It's got a party like atmosphere, drunk fans egging 524 00:38:07.440 --> 00:38:13.079 on their favorite pros, and beer balls. Now I know what you're thinking. 525 00:38:13.639 --> 00:38:15.119 What is a beer ball? Like? Maybe you're old enough to remember 526 00:38:15.199 --> 00:38:19.519 the party ball that you could get from bud Light. The bud Light party 527 00:38:19.559 --> 00:38:22.840 ball had like five gallons of beer in it and you can buy that from 528 00:38:22.840 --> 00:38:25.719 the party store. Oh yeah, those are good times. But these are 529 00:38:25.760 --> 00:38:30.159 different because they're at the Waste Management Phoenix open where, by the way, 530 00:38:30.159 --> 00:38:35.679 when you hit an amazing shot, just expect to see beer cups go flying 531 00:38:35.760 --> 00:38:38.400 and people just cheering and hollering, and you may even look over and see 532 00:38:38.480 --> 00:38:42.679 Jelly roll because that's his kind of party. I'm sure he'd fit right in 533 00:38:42.719 --> 00:38:51.199 there. Your typical pressed shirt and proper etiquette golf clap atmosphere that you would 534 00:38:51.199 --> 00:38:55.639 expect to see at a golf event, At a professional golf event, not 535 00:38:57.079 --> 00:38:59.760 the waste management Phoenix open. No, no, no, no, this 536 00:38:59.840 --> 00:39:04.760 is a party. So what are these beer balls, ladies and gentlemen. 537 00:39:04.800 --> 00:39:13.800 These are golf balls wrapped in cash, and then they are distributed to spectators. 538 00:39:13.800 --> 00:39:16.519 Now you might be wondering, how is this done? Well, Golfer 539 00:39:16.599 --> 00:39:22.679 Ryan Palmer already prepping up his golf balls or his beer balls. He's taking 540 00:39:22.719 --> 00:39:27.760 his golf balls, autographing them and putting the slogan on cheers, and he's 541 00:39:27.760 --> 00:39:30.159 wrapping a ten dollars bill around it with a rubber band. And when he 542 00:39:30.199 --> 00:39:34.480 gets to the sixteenth hole, he's gonna start throwing him into the stands for 543 00:39:34.519 --> 00:39:37.760 people to go buy more beer. That's my new favorite golfer right there, 544 00:39:38.000 --> 00:39:40.800 unless somebody else is doing it on a different hole than that would be my 545 00:39:40.840 --> 00:39:45.719 favorite golfer. But the forty seven year old he is all ready to go 546 00:39:45.760 --> 00:39:50.679 for the waste management, Phoenix open, and he's gonna make a few new 547 00:39:50.719 --> 00:39:55.000 friends. I'm sure this right of passage here began in twenty fifteen, when 548 00:39:55.119 --> 00:40:00.440 Palmer started to throw bills into the stands. Oh, I love this guy. 549 00:40:00.679 --> 00:40:05.320 I love this He threw him in the stands on the par three sixteenth, 550 00:40:05.679 --> 00:40:08.679 and well the word got out. He is he keeps the spirit of 551 00:40:08.719 --> 00:40:13.679 this thing going, saying again with cheers. He writes cheers on it. 552 00:40:13.719 --> 00:40:17.039 And the money he knows he's going to be used to buy beer. This 553 00:40:17.519 --> 00:40:21.679 is fun here, it says. The Colosseum stands if they can handle it. 554 00:40:22.159 --> 00:40:27.519 We're gonna find out soon enough, because the place gets really rowdy. 555 00:40:27.719 --> 00:40:32.559 I mean it gets rambunctious, it gets rowdy, it gets nuts, and 556 00:40:34.159 --> 00:40:37.039 this guy is gonna help fuel the fire. I like this guy. I 557 00:40:37.039 --> 00:40:40.440 don't know a lot about him, but I'm a fan. I'm actually thinking 558 00:40:40.480 --> 00:40:45.679 about getting a picture of him with his beer balls. And that sounds really 559 00:40:45.719 --> 00:40:47.559 weird. That did not come out the way I intended that to sound. 560 00:40:47.639 --> 00:40:51.400 James, Yes, I want a picture of this man and his beer balls 561 00:40:51.440 --> 00:40:54.920 hanging on my wall. It's not what it sounds like. Chad's twenty twenty 562 00:40:54.920 --> 00:40:59.599 four and we don't judge unless it's a Hold my beer and wash this which 563 00:40:59.639 --> 00:41:01.639 is coming up next hour. All this and so much more. Hang with 564 00:41:01.719 --> 00:41:04.800 us. You don't want to miss an ounce of it. We'll be right 565 00:41:04.840 --> 00:41:13.039 back. Craft beer, it's not alcoholisms, it's a hobby. This is 566 00:41:13.119 --> 00:41:17.920 what's on tap radio, Hold my beer and watch this, brought to you 567 00:41:19.000 --> 00:41:22.360 by your friends at Ringing All the tenacin insurance group located in Grand Rapids, 568 00:41:22.440 --> 00:41:28.719 Michigan, and Holland along the Lake Shore RTI Grand Rapids RTI Grand Rapids dot 569 00:41:28.760 --> 00:41:44.599 Com. All right, I'll renumber two. What's on tap radio starts now. 570 00:41:45.639 --> 00:41:52.400 I want to put a disclaimer on this. What's the disclaimer this song 571 00:41:52.880 --> 00:42:00.880 or song title? Maybe you make qualify for the lamest song type in the 572 00:42:00.920 --> 00:42:07.480 history of song kitess why's that? Yeah, because that's what every kid imagines 573 00:42:07.519 --> 00:42:09.159 growing up. Yeah. Hey, it's hip to be square, man, 574 00:42:10.760 --> 00:42:15.920 it is. I mean, it's better than being a rectangle, no, 575 00:42:17.119 --> 00:42:25.320 or triangle. It it's cool. Just I'm sorry, man, I just 576 00:42:25.519 --> 00:42:29.480 I was I was in I was in elementary school or middle school. I 577 00:42:29.519 --> 00:42:31.440 think I was middle school when this song came out. Yeah, because this 578 00:42:31.599 --> 00:42:37.800 was after the Sports album and uh yeah, I was in middle school and 579 00:42:37.880 --> 00:42:42.039 this thing came out. It was like, what kid ever said, Yeah, 580 00:42:42.159 --> 00:42:46.239 it's so hip to be a square. No, nobody ever said that. 581 00:42:46.599 --> 00:42:51.360 But I'll tell you what it is. Hip is whenever Prince is supposed 582 00:42:51.400 --> 00:42:52.840 to show up for We Are the World, because we're sprinkling in we Are 583 00:42:52.880 --> 00:42:55.519 the World fun facts. Not sure how we got into it. Our whole 584 00:42:55.559 --> 00:43:05.159 production meeting was about some documentary and so here we are we we decided to 585 00:43:05.199 --> 00:43:09.559 sprinkle or pepper in some fun facts about we Are the World, and so 586 00:43:09.679 --> 00:43:14.519 Huey lo chat, what are we learning? He had a he had a 587 00:43:14.559 --> 00:43:20.559 solo on on the on the song on the record, but that was not 588 00:43:20.639 --> 00:43:22.599 the original plan. They were trying to get prints there and they had a 589 00:43:22.639 --> 00:43:27.599 solo lined up for Prince and nobody knew if he was coming. Nobody knew 590 00:43:27.639 --> 00:43:31.159 if he was coming, and finally Sheila E said He's not coming, and 591 00:43:31.199 --> 00:43:34.440 they were like, well, we need somebody to sing. Who's who's going 592 00:43:34.519 --> 00:43:39.039 to sing it? And Huey Lewis got the nod. Huey Lewis ended up 593 00:43:39.079 --> 00:43:45.400 singing a solo on We Are the World because Prince didn't show up. You 594 00:43:45.440 --> 00:43:49.599 want to know where Prince was while this is all going down. He was 595 00:43:49.639 --> 00:43:53.039 at a Mexican food restaurant. Yeah, he was at a Mexican food restaurant. 596 00:43:53.360 --> 00:44:00.360 And people believe that because of his rivalry with Michael jack that's why he 597 00:44:00.440 --> 00:44:05.079 was a no show. There's a lot of theories of why he wasn't there. 598 00:44:05.599 --> 00:44:08.159 That was brought up in the documentary too, because for best record, 599 00:44:08.440 --> 00:44:15.920 it was down to when Doves Cry and Michael Jackson's Thriller, and when Doves 600 00:44:15.920 --> 00:44:19.639 Cry won, Prince won. So you think, all right, he won, 601 00:44:20.039 --> 00:44:22.840 might as well show up. They still wanted him there. I don't 602 00:44:22.840 --> 00:44:27.239 think Michael would have minded. I don't know, But like I said, 603 00:44:27.280 --> 00:44:30.559 we're just bringing this show is not about We Are the World, the making 604 00:44:30.599 --> 00:44:32.400 of Wheel of the World. It's about step It's about like stuff like this, 605 00:44:34.039 --> 00:44:37.320 hold my beer and watch this brought to you by the ring meld of 606 00:44:37.360 --> 00:44:42.880 ten Hacen Insurance Group, where they'll cover you for just about everything except this, 607 00:44:43.079 --> 00:44:46.719 although we will continue peppering these in throughout the show. But uh oh, 608 00:44:46.800 --> 00:44:52.760 I want to People may have noticed that Bill is not hanging out in 609 00:44:52.760 --> 00:44:57.079 the studio with Chad this week we sit Bill out on assignments and maybe he'll 610 00:44:57.119 --> 00:45:00.320 be back next week. That and also is that Chad's been on a diet, 611 00:45:01.360 --> 00:45:07.440 not voluntarily, No, just in case it wasn't food poisoning and it 612 00:45:07.480 --> 00:45:09.920 was some sort of a stomach bug. I didn't want anybody around me, 613 00:45:10.719 --> 00:45:14.199 so I just like, you know what, I'm gonna empty out the studio, 614 00:45:14.880 --> 00:45:16.719 and I was just gonna mention, I'm still sipping on this beer and 615 00:45:16.719 --> 00:45:20.199 I'm doing pretty good. I don't know if I'm gonna crack a second one. 616 00:45:20.719 --> 00:45:23.360 Yeah, Chad's been taking it really liked this week. Usually around this 617 00:45:23.440 --> 00:45:28.239 time, he's probably on beer number five or six. No, I'm not. 618 00:45:28.519 --> 00:45:30.000 Usually Bill and I are on our third or fourth, but I'm on 619 00:45:30.039 --> 00:45:34.840 my second usually and I haven't even drank half of this, so that's okay. 620 00:45:34.840 --> 00:45:37.199 I'm taking it. I'm drinking a little slow over here. I am 621 00:45:37.079 --> 00:45:43.880 continuing to consume my Sirra Nevada non Alcoholic Trail pass India pale Ale. You 622 00:45:43.920 --> 00:45:47.679 know some people they shouldn't be drinking. They shouldn't be drinking, maybe sticking 623 00:45:47.719 --> 00:45:54.079 to non alcoholic beverages like you know this trail pass ipa is what this subject 624 00:45:54.119 --> 00:45:59.199 should have done. This almost sounds like a setup to a joke, Chad, 625 00:45:59.559 --> 00:46:04.639 but it's pretty real. So a naked woman walks into a convenience store 626 00:46:04.760 --> 00:46:10.880 armed with a potato peeler on Sunday. And this happened in Take your guest, 627 00:46:10.960 --> 00:46:15.800 Chad, Florida. Damn right it did. And it wasn't Idaho. 628 00:46:16.119 --> 00:46:21.159 No, this was not in Nebraska. This was in Florida. And yes, 629 00:46:21.280 --> 00:46:24.079 she was very, very intoxicated. She was thirty five years old. 630 00:46:24.440 --> 00:46:30.119 Her name is Celia Barrett and she walks into a store in Saint Petersburg one 631 00:46:30.159 --> 00:46:35.679 Sunday evening and started yelling about getting kicked out of the same store the day 632 00:46:35.760 --> 00:46:38.239 earlier. Apparently she didn't get the message that hey, we don't want you 633 00:46:38.239 --> 00:46:42.119 to coming back. But you know, she got kicked out the store, 634 00:46:42.199 --> 00:46:45.079 went home, thought about it, got that rage built up. She's like, 635 00:46:45.119 --> 00:46:47.119 you know what, I'm gonna go back and I'm gonna show them and 636 00:46:47.159 --> 00:46:53.679 I'm gonna do this naked. Well, she threatened two workers with the peeler, 637 00:46:54.199 --> 00:46:58.880 and she says she was going to kill one of them whoa with the 638 00:46:58.920 --> 00:47:02.519 peeler. If that's been possible to be killed with a potato peeler. Yeah, 639 00:47:02.559 --> 00:47:07.000 I don't know if that's ever been Has anybody ever been murdered by a 640 00:47:07.000 --> 00:47:12.880 potato peeler? Was that ever? Was that ever? In clue? Oh? 641 00:47:12.920 --> 00:47:15.719 He was killed in the uh, in the convenience store with a potato 642 00:47:15.760 --> 00:47:20.960 peeler and in the lobby with the potato peeler. Colonel Mustard did it in 643 00:47:21.079 --> 00:47:23.320 the lobby of the Comea's store or in the lobby of the store with a 644 00:47:23.320 --> 00:47:27.440 potato with a potato pillar. Well, she also while in the process of 645 00:47:27.440 --> 00:47:30.360 all this going down, she toppled a display of red bulls and tore open 646 00:47:30.360 --> 00:47:36.360 a carton of cigarettes, spilling them all over the floor. And a ploye 647 00:47:36.400 --> 00:47:40.440 called the cops, and she was still fully naked when they arrived. And 648 00:47:40.599 --> 00:47:45.159 uh, kids, ear muffs, give you a second, Okay, I 649 00:47:45.199 --> 00:47:50.599 got the ear muffs on. Okay. Uh, she's began to pleasure herself 650 00:47:51.039 --> 00:47:54.280 in front of the officers, WHOA yeah, hopefully not with the peeler. 651 00:47:54.320 --> 00:47:59.880 Though hopefully not with the peeler. She told them that she had about six 652 00:48:00.079 --> 00:48:02.000 shots of liquor that day, and she didn't know how many beers, but 653 00:48:02.039 --> 00:48:07.239 she had a few beers. And she's facing charges of aggravated assault, disorally 654 00:48:07.280 --> 00:48:13.440 intoxication, trespassing, criminal mischief, and in decent exposure. So you hold 655 00:48:13.480 --> 00:48:15.880 my beer and watch this. This week, a naked woman walks into a 656 00:48:15.920 --> 00:48:19.280 convenience store armed with a potato peeler, And yes, that does sound like 657 00:48:19.320 --> 00:48:22.559 a setup of a joke, but no, this really happened in Saint Petersburg, 658 00:48:22.639 --> 00:48:25.800 Florida. And that has been your my beer and watched this brought to 659 00:48:25.800 --> 00:48:30.159 you by Renaldo Tenek and Insurance Group, where they're probably shaking their head with 660 00:48:30.679 --> 00:48:36.000 yeah, I know. I'm like, I gotta talk to my buddy Clonder. 661 00:48:37.039 --> 00:48:38.840 Listen. I can't. I don't know what's going on in Florida. 662 00:48:38.880 --> 00:48:43.159 I we don't. I can't make we don't have this stuff. It just 663 00:48:43.280 --> 00:48:46.239 exists. By the way, I just did a little research here. Yeah, 664 00:48:46.440 --> 00:48:51.400 potato, It says right here potato peelers can be fatal. And then 665 00:48:51.440 --> 00:48:54.000 there's a story here out of the UK man who murdered flatmate with a potato 666 00:48:54.039 --> 00:48:58.880 peeler. Well, there you go, so it is a deadly weapon, 667 00:48:59.000 --> 00:49:00.599 and so there you go. Maybe she saw that story and it's like, 668 00:49:00.639 --> 00:49:02.199 you know what, I don't have a gun or a knife, but I 669 00:49:02.199 --> 00:49:07.079 do have this potato peeler. I'm gonna go tell them I'm aggravated about them 670 00:49:07.159 --> 00:49:08.400 kicking me out the day earlier. But that is your home. My parent 671 00:49:08.440 --> 00:49:12.199 watched this. I said, folks, we can't make this stuff up. 672 00:49:12.239 --> 00:49:14.079 All right, we have got to take a break. Oh my gosh, 673 00:49:14.079 --> 00:49:16.880 We've got still so much to get to. Joe Biden's in the news. 674 00:49:17.519 --> 00:49:22.320 We gotta talk about Joe Biden and Miller lte they're getting in with the super 675 00:49:22.360 --> 00:49:23.679 Bowl. We'll talk about with what they have going on, and liking Googles 676 00:49:23.679 --> 00:49:25.679 in the news. We'll talk about that. All this is so much more. 677 00:49:25.760 --> 00:49:30.599 We'll be right back. And the teacher said, no, Bobby, 678 00:49:30.800 --> 00:49:36.920 there's no such time as bureau clock. Fire that teacher. This is what's 679 00:49:36.960 --> 00:49:57.000 on Taperdio always liked this song, Linel Richie, welcome back to We Are 680 00:49:57.039 --> 00:50:05.320 the World the Inside to Scoop on Top Radio. By the way, you 681 00:50:05.320 --> 00:50:07.960 know what we should have done, though we did screw this up. Well 682 00:50:08.440 --> 00:50:14.400 that's basically every show we somehow screw up something. Well, somebody may have 683 00:50:14.440 --> 00:50:20.719 wanted to watch the documentary and we never once said spoiler. Well, we're 684 00:50:20.760 --> 00:50:23.480 kind of giving you previews of what to expect when you watch the documentary. 685 00:50:23.599 --> 00:50:27.639 We're giving you all the show. We're literally giving you the whole thing. 686 00:50:28.159 --> 00:50:31.119 For example, for example, Chad, did you know that my Madonna was 687 00:50:31.199 --> 00:50:37.639 not invited? Apparently some of the organizers felt that she wasn't good enough, 688 00:50:38.079 --> 00:50:43.320 she was not a good enough singer, so they went with Cindy Lapper instead, 689 00:50:44.079 --> 00:50:52.519 and sources said it broke Madonna's heart and Cindy Lapper almost backed out because 690 00:50:52.559 --> 00:50:58.119 it was recorded right after the American Music Awards and Cindy Lauper performed on stage 691 00:50:58.159 --> 00:51:00.159 and then went backstage and says, I don't think I'm gonna go. My 692 00:51:00.320 --> 00:51:07.559 boyfriend doesn't think it's gonna be a hit O. And Lionel's like, you 693 00:51:07.639 --> 00:51:15.599 need to think about this and be very careful about what you decide. Yeah, 694 00:51:15.800 --> 00:51:21.400 I wonder how that relationship ended. Yeah, I don't know that he's 695 00:51:21.440 --> 00:51:24.480 a seacher anymore. We're just giving you a little, you know, teasers 696 00:51:24.519 --> 00:51:29.599 of what the documentary is about. So anyways, let's talk about let's talk 697 00:51:29.599 --> 00:51:30.480 about some beer I want. Yeah, I was so old. Did you 698 00:51:30.480 --> 00:51:35.039 say you were gonna crack open? Are you crack open a beer? My 699 00:51:35.239 --> 00:51:38.519 last day beer from the fridge here at Studio S Broadcasting on the west side 700 00:51:38.519 --> 00:51:43.840 of town. Whole month of January, I was doing the Dry January and 701 00:51:44.000 --> 00:51:46.320 I have some beers left over, and I decided, since I'm not gonna 702 00:51:46.360 --> 00:51:51.400 drink these hanging out with you know, Brian Holsen or neighbor Vic or neighbor 703 00:51:51.480 --> 00:51:53.119 Chris or some name drops right there, I decided, you know what, 704 00:51:53.159 --> 00:51:57.000 I'll just go ahead and consume him on the show since we have some listeners 705 00:51:57.000 --> 00:52:00.480 out there that do consume and a beer's on a regular basis. So my 706 00:52:00.639 --> 00:52:07.239 last brew I'm bringing, uh maybe for maybe not for the last time this 707 00:52:07.320 --> 00:52:08.719 year. I may bring it later on this year, but just for the 708 00:52:08.760 --> 00:52:15.719 time being, I'm gonna go with the original athletic brewing Company, Run Wild 709 00:52:16.000 --> 00:52:22.840 IPA my last n a beer, the run Wild India pale Al Athletic Brewing 710 00:52:22.880 --> 00:52:28.960 Company, which is on track to be probably the most successful. If they 711 00:52:29.000 --> 00:52:34.559 are not yet in a craft brewer, they are by far the most successful. 712 00:52:34.639 --> 00:52:42.880 Oh, and non alcoholic craft brew smells bad. Oh oh, James 713 00:52:43.760 --> 00:52:45.639 James is making faces. No, he really is. He's not faking this, 714 00:52:45.639 --> 00:52:51.559 this is real. He's do you get is it old? Yeah? 715 00:52:51.639 --> 00:52:54.960 Ta's old. Oh is there a data on the can? Good question. 716 00:52:55.119 --> 00:52:59.400 Check it out, James. We're doing some investigating. Sixty five calories, 717 00:52:59.480 --> 00:53:04.000 zero percent, and I'll call it by volume. Oh, yep, there 718 00:53:04.119 --> 00:53:12.719 is packaged March ninth, twenty twenty three. Yeah, there it is. 719 00:53:13.239 --> 00:53:17.800 And I bought this at a local retailer. That's the beginning of dry January. 720 00:53:20.400 --> 00:53:22.840 Hold on as a mixer sixer. I bought it as a mixer sixer, 721 00:53:23.400 --> 00:53:29.119 and yeah, this is skunky. This is a public service announcement for 722 00:53:29.199 --> 00:53:32.360 you, your friends at What's on Tap Radio, learn from James mistake, 723 00:53:34.039 --> 00:53:38.639 especially when you're buying the single cans from the shelf. Always always, always, 724 00:53:39.000 --> 00:53:45.320 always check the dates, especially on IPA's Yeah, no bitterness whatsoever. 725 00:53:45.000 --> 00:53:50.320 Oh yeah, oh, I guess you're gonna be dumping that. Uh yeah 726 00:53:50.360 --> 00:53:54.719 that Wow. That's not a good way to end my dry January for February. 727 00:53:57.639 --> 00:54:01.159 Yeah, okay, it's normally pretty sold IPA, but in this case 728 00:54:01.199 --> 00:54:05.239 they took the old feather dester and dusted it off in here. I was, 729 00:54:05.320 --> 00:54:07.000 yeah, in a hurry, because I was in a hurry, and 730 00:54:07.039 --> 00:54:13.559 I just picked random six I gets. But I won't buy an IPA unless 731 00:54:13.559 --> 00:54:17.119 I'm positive it's fresh or I can read the date. If I can't read 732 00:54:17.159 --> 00:54:20.519 the date, it's pretty much a no go. But I mean, like 733 00:54:20.559 --> 00:54:22.519 if celebration al came out from Sierra Nevada. By the way, those have 734 00:54:22.599 --> 00:54:27.199 dates on them. But a celebrationale from Sierra Nevada came out and I know 735 00:54:27.239 --> 00:54:31.800 it's seasonal and I'm and I'm in season I'm gonna buy it. But any 736 00:54:31.880 --> 00:54:36.400 other I PA that's year round. If I can't, if there's no date 737 00:54:36.440 --> 00:54:37.960 on it, forget it, not doing it. We've talked about this. 738 00:54:38.039 --> 00:54:42.880 I am really upset right now. Crimes against beer right there, folks, 739 00:54:42.920 --> 00:54:45.000 that's one of the crimes. We talked about it. Go check out our 740 00:54:45.000 --> 00:54:47.920 podcast brought to you by Cast Branding last week. We did talk about that. 741 00:54:49.639 --> 00:54:52.159 Speaking of crimes against beer, I want to bring this up here. 742 00:54:52.239 --> 00:54:58.599 I know you're all been following the organ beer scene very very closely because the 743 00:54:58.639 --> 00:55:01.239 task force out there now, which has been launched, a twenty person panel. 744 00:55:01.400 --> 00:55:07.320 They want to raise taxes on beer and organ so I can watch what's 745 00:55:07.320 --> 00:55:10.840 going on in the organ or organ beer tax laws. Yeah, well, 746 00:55:12.199 --> 00:55:15.519 this one's kind of interesting. But an organ task force has many members on 747 00:55:15.719 --> 00:55:22.559 there again, it's twenty person task force wanting to raise money through increased taxes 748 00:55:22.599 --> 00:55:29.119 on beer, wine and spirits to repair the insufficient This is their words, 749 00:55:29.440 --> 00:55:35.159 they're very poor addiction support and treatment programs. In other words, they're saying 750 00:55:35.199 --> 00:55:42.679 that the residents of Oregon have a higher than normal addiction rate to alcohol and 751 00:55:43.000 --> 00:55:49.079 a very high cost associate for the state, a five billion dollar price tag 752 00:55:49.119 --> 00:55:53.239 alcohol costs them. And that's alcohol related illness, car crashes, and loss 753 00:55:53.239 --> 00:56:00.880 of productivity. And so they formed the Alcohol Pricing and Addiction Services Task Force 754 00:56:00.119 --> 00:56:06.559 or APAASTF. We're very familiar with them. Right, do you apply for 755 00:56:06.599 --> 00:56:08.039 that job? Do you fill out an application? How does one become a 756 00:56:08.079 --> 00:56:15.239 task force agent? The Alcohol Pricing and Addiction Service Task Force? How does 757 00:56:15.280 --> 00:56:19.519 one become one of those agents? I don't know. I'm not sure. 758 00:56:19.559 --> 00:56:22.679 You probably got to be deep into politics and not care about business because brewers 759 00:56:22.679 --> 00:56:28.199 and sighteries and wineries are saying you could not be sending a tax hike on 760 00:56:28.320 --> 00:56:32.119 us. At a worse time, beer consumption is down overall five percent nationally. 761 00:56:32.679 --> 00:56:38.159 And check this out. I did not know this. Beer is the 762 00:56:38.199 --> 00:56:44.559 third largest revenue generator for the state of Oregon. I did not know that, 763 00:56:45.280 --> 00:56:49.360 and for the first time, and I don't know how long, last 764 00:56:49.440 --> 00:56:55.639 year twenty twenty three, more breweries closed in Oregon than opened. That's very 765 00:56:55.800 --> 00:57:01.519 telling for a state that was known as having vana, the perfect beer centric 766 00:57:01.559 --> 00:57:07.679 Portland organ the place to go for craft beer. But more breweries closed than 767 00:57:07.800 --> 00:57:10.800 open an organ last year. And the last attempt to try and pass the 768 00:57:10.880 --> 00:57:16.480 tax would have raised the tax on barrels of beer in Oregon from two dollars 769 00:57:16.559 --> 00:57:23.239 and sixty cents to seventy dollars for a barrel of beer. So, needless 770 00:57:23.280 --> 00:57:28.159 to say, brewers very upset. Basically, in case you're wondering what that 771 00:57:28.199 --> 00:57:30.679 does, it basically says, for every keg of beer that goes out, 772 00:57:30.960 --> 00:57:36.360 the full sized keg, it's a dollar thirty and they wanted to raise it 773 00:57:36.360 --> 00:57:38.639 to forty five dollars. So anyway, we'll be watching that scene. But 774 00:57:38.639 --> 00:57:42.840 if you're listening in orgon knock it off. If you're wondering why you're spinning 775 00:57:42.880 --> 00:57:45.239 eleven ninety nine for a six pack of beer these days, well there's her 776 00:57:45.320 --> 00:57:51.480 answer. Yeah, beer price is going up stuff like that. So let's 777 00:57:51.480 --> 00:57:54.480 switch gears for a second. I'll never understand why people like Chad do this, 778 00:57:55.159 --> 00:58:00.840 but why in God's name do people wear or insist on wearing shorts during 779 00:58:00.840 --> 00:58:05.679 the winter. Never understood that because it's comfortable, but it's you know, 780 00:58:06.079 --> 00:58:10.400 five degrees outside and you're walking around with shorts on. But apparently Line of 781 00:58:10.480 --> 00:58:15.199 Google's jumping on this trend because the Wisconsin based brewery Line of Google hopes it's 782 00:58:15.360 --> 00:58:22.800 new heated shorts will optimize the quirky practice once described as and I quote both 783 00:58:22.880 --> 00:58:28.280 ridiculous and rebellious, crackpot and courageous, kind of a middle finger at both 784 00:58:28.519 --> 00:58:34.480 the men and winter. So on sale soon. They're going for fifty dollars 785 00:58:34.480 --> 00:58:37.679 a pair, and they are a limited edition Lenny's shorts or Laney Shorts, 786 00:58:37.719 --> 00:58:42.119 I guess. And they have a heating elements powered by a rechargeable battery in 787 00:58:42.159 --> 00:58:47.159 the legs, an external bottle holster, and a cheerful lemon print to celebrate 788 00:58:47.239 --> 00:58:53.719 the return of the brewers seasonal citrus spiked summer shandy inspired by those who bear 789 00:58:53.760 --> 00:58:58.679 their calves in the winter, lining Google's hopes, and they want to ensure 790 00:58:59.119 --> 00:59:01.880 that the hardy foe could keep this summer vibe going year round with it a 791 00:59:02.000 --> 00:59:07.800 warm bods and cold beers. So Line of Google is selling heated shorts with 792 00:59:07.840 --> 00:59:12.239 a beer holster to encourage a pants free winter. So again this comes from 793 00:59:12.280 --> 00:59:15.760 Line and Google, who's owned by Miller, which means this product doesn't exist. 794 00:59:19.119 --> 00:59:21.559 Just putting that out there. So you're like, hey, I want 795 00:59:21.599 --> 00:59:25.079 some heated shorts. Well you can try to log onto dot com and so 796 00:59:25.199 --> 00:59:29.519 you get yourself a pair of but chances are probably not. I just thought 797 00:59:29.559 --> 00:59:31.599 I'll throw that out there. Okay, let's take a break, Chad, 798 00:59:31.719 --> 00:59:36.239 let's come back in talk about some brewery closures. All this is so much 799 00:59:36.239 --> 00:59:39.119 more hanging with us. We'll be right back. On average, humans walk 800 00:59:39.239 --> 00:59:44.519 nine hundred miles per year, entering twenty two gallons of beer, which means 801 00:59:44.559 --> 00:59:50.559 the average human gets forty one miles per gallon. Not Ben, What's on 802 00:59:50.679 --> 01:00:08.719 tap Radio continues, Right, We've got more fun facts here about the making 803 01:00:08.800 --> 01:00:14.639 of We Are the World. We want to thank our friends over at Superior 804 01:00:14.679 --> 01:00:19.000 Pest Control for sending the next story I'm about to talk about. Before we 805 01:00:19.039 --> 01:00:22.480 get into that, have you ever wondered how they are able to get all 806 01:00:22.480 --> 01:00:28.239 these huge stars together at once? Have you ever wondered about that, like, 807 01:00:28.239 --> 01:00:30.679 how were they able to get all these massive pop stars together all in 808 01:00:30.760 --> 01:00:37.000 one place? Like what were they all doing on that night where they could 809 01:00:37.079 --> 01:00:42.159 coordinate and get everybody there at the same time. Well, how they were 810 01:00:42.159 --> 01:00:45.360 able to do that? As they recorded it after the nineteen eighty five American 811 01:00:45.440 --> 01:00:51.000 Music Awards, So after the awards ceremony they were able to get all the 812 01:00:51.159 --> 01:00:53.920 huge stars together to perform. So there you go, a little extra fun 813 01:00:53.960 --> 01:00:59.440 fact for you on this episode of We're making of We Are the World. 814 01:01:00.519 --> 01:01:02.719 Just kidding. Yeah, no, I don't know. Our production meeting, 815 01:01:02.719 --> 01:01:07.079 we were supposed to be talking about what was on the one sheet, but 816 01:01:07.239 --> 01:01:10.400 we decided to take the meeting and discuss the documentary that just came out, 817 01:01:12.039 --> 01:01:16.280 very good documentary, and so uh, well we'll springland one more fun fact 818 01:01:16.280 --> 01:01:22.400 coming up. But Chad, who had got food poisoning. I thought he's 819 01:01:22.400 --> 01:01:24.760 gonna be drinking pedia light throughout the entire show. He's on number was gonna 820 01:01:24.760 --> 01:01:29.519 make it. But here he is on beer number two. I I I, 821 01:01:29.800 --> 01:01:30.800 yeah, I took my time, and I actually feel great. And 822 01:01:30.960 --> 01:01:34.679 I saw what you did. You're cleaning out your fridge. I went to 823 01:01:34.679 --> 01:01:37.440 get another beer, and I saw I had one of these left, and 824 01:01:37.480 --> 01:01:40.800 I said, yep, we're gonna take it down in the spirit of James 825 01:01:40.840 --> 01:01:45.199 Simpson, who had one non alcoholic beer left, which turned out to be 826 01:01:45.239 --> 01:01:47.159 a dream. Poor Yeah, I know, uh, just one thought. 827 01:01:49.519 --> 01:01:53.599 I had one Christmas aale left from Bells Brewery as Scotch ail. I'm like, 828 01:01:53.760 --> 01:01:57.960 Okay, that's gonna hold up. That'll be fine. We'll drink it 829 01:01:57.960 --> 01:02:01.320 before it You know, it's a year because the beer I'm drinking is brewed 830 01:02:02.199 --> 01:02:07.159 packaged well over a year ago. Did not know that when I bought it. 831 01:02:07.159 --> 01:02:10.480 I love it. Yeah, seven and a half percent Scotch ale from 832 01:02:10.960 --> 01:02:15.760 Bells Brewery. The Christmas ale, which, by the way, I find 833 01:02:15.760 --> 01:02:17.760 that interesting about Bells in their Christmas aales. I know we're not really supposed 834 01:02:17.760 --> 01:02:21.880 to be talking about that now because it is February. We're supposed to be 835 01:02:21.920 --> 01:02:25.960 talking about summer pills. But right the summer season is already coming out, 836 01:02:27.480 --> 01:02:30.920 that's right. And by the way, next week pumpkin ales in Octoberfest. 837 01:02:30.960 --> 01:02:35.719 But yeah, Christmas ale. Most Christmas ales are spice beers. Not so 838 01:02:35.840 --> 01:02:38.480 with Bells. They did the Scotch aale. You can't get I'm not mad 839 01:02:38.519 --> 01:02:43.599 at that, No, not at all. It's delicious. Mahogany color, 840 01:02:43.760 --> 01:02:51.519 very deep, deep ruby red, almost brown, multi nose, a little 841 01:02:51.519 --> 01:02:57.400 sweetness. It tastes old, No, tastes amazing. It's amazing. Chad's 842 01:02:57.440 --> 01:03:00.800 able to hold it down. He hasn't thrown up once. I am, 843 01:03:00.920 --> 01:03:02.480 you know, I'm just pumping the brakes, taking it easy, getting my 844 01:03:02.519 --> 01:03:07.360 stomach back. Food poisoning is very serious, man. I don't screw around 845 01:03:07.400 --> 01:03:10.239 with that. But then again, I don't have a choice. Oh when 846 01:03:10.280 --> 01:03:14.280 it gets you, man, it gets you hard. It's awful, all 847 01:03:14.360 --> 01:03:17.039 right. I want to plug our social that's at what's on tap radio on 848 01:03:17.239 --> 01:03:22.639 Facebook x, Instagram, TikTok and get ahold of the show.

Like our 851 01:03:28.000 --> 01:03:31.719 good friends over at Superior Pest Control, continuing to send as stories after stories, 852 01:03:32.400 --> 01:03:36.760 and uh, we got a good one this week. We got a 853 01:03:36.760 --> 01:03:39.519 new SoundBite. I'm always looking for new sound bites. Love a good SoundBite 854 01:03:39.840 --> 01:03:43.840 to put it on the board. Here. This this, this actually did 855 01:03:43.840 --> 01:03:47.719 come up in the production meeting because we kept saying it reminded us of the 856 01:03:47.840 --> 01:03:52.639 saying, Hey, if you put that on the radio, people will listen 857 01:03:52.719 --> 01:03:59.199 to that on the radio. It will so. Grandpa Biden gave a speech 858 01:04:00.599 --> 01:04:06.159 at earth Writer Brewery It's a Superior Wisconsin, where he toued out his economic 859 01:04:06.360 --> 01:04:14.559 record, ak Biden nomics and the success of his bipartisan infrastructure legislation, and 860 01:04:14.599 --> 01:04:17.519 a bid to short up as support for his twenty twenty four re election bid. 861 01:04:18.199 --> 01:04:25.440 However, online onlookers were distracted from the economic talking points by an extended 862 01:04:25.559 --> 01:04:30.360 gaff Biden made about the brewery and it's beer. So part way through his 863 01:04:30.440 --> 01:04:35.760 remarks he appeared to mumble, here we go, cut five beer brood here 864 01:04:35.800 --> 01:04:41.440 it is used to make the brew beard. In his final ooh, earth 865 01:04:41.480 --> 01:04:45.000 writer, thanks for the great lakes. I wonder what the hell did he 866 01:04:45.119 --> 01:04:48.760 just say? Well, it's a good thing.

Here. 868 01:04:55.159 --> 01:04:59.039 While most of the sentence was unintelligible, he seemed to add, oh, 869 01:04:59.280 --> 01:05:02.079 earth Writer, thanks for the great lakes. I wonder why the beer 870 01:05:02.440 --> 01:05:09.400 here it is used to make the prove beard his fine Ooh earth Rider, 871 01:05:09.480 --> 01:05:14.519 thanks for the great Lakes. I wonder so yeah, he trailed off as 872 01:05:14.559 --> 01:05:17.800 the audience laughter drowned him out through It seemed unclear what exactly they were laughing 873 01:05:17.840 --> 01:05:25.800 at, but X users didn't get the joke. Conservative influencer Coln Rogue posted, 874 01:05:25.960 --> 01:05:29.679 just in, President Biden sounds like he's speaking a different language while giving 875 01:05:29.679 --> 01:05:32.599 a speech at the earth Writer Brewery and Superior, Wisconsin. Don't worry. 876 01:05:32.840 --> 01:05:36.639 The media has assured us that he is sharper than ever. And then he 877 01:05:36.679 --> 01:05:41.320 provided his own trans and then he provided his own translation of the speech, 878 01:05:41.320 --> 01:05:45.199 adding the beer brood here is used to make the brood beer. During his 879 01:05:45.320 --> 01:05:49.639 defined oh earth Rider, thanks for the Great Lakes, Biden said, according 880 01:05:49.639 --> 01:05:54.440 to his speech transcriber, so yeah, all right, Well, I like 881 01:05:54.480 --> 01:05:57.320 a good sound bite, and we got a good one that I'll be playing 882 01:05:57.360 --> 01:06:01.320 throughout the years. All right, Well, speaking of soundbites, I'm gonna 883 01:06:01.360 --> 01:06:04.880 go ahead and just tell you this right now. This one's We've been sitting 884 01:06:04.920 --> 01:06:06.880 on this for a while, but you've asked for it, and we're going 885 01:06:06.920 --> 01:06:10.800 to talk about it. We've got some information and we got the black blew 886 01:06:10.960 --> 01:06:16.719 up yep, here we go, folks. A recent announcement from CEO William 887 01:06:17.199 --> 01:06:23.960 McLucas of Buffalo by You Brewing Company says our best years are before us or 888 01:06:24.039 --> 01:06:27.039 yet to come. Rather is what he said, and why would he be 889 01:06:27.079 --> 01:06:30.480 saying that? Well. Buffalo by You Brewing Company in Houston, touted as 890 01:06:30.559 --> 01:06:33.880 Houston's most creative brewery, has been locked out of its facility in Sawyer Yards 891 01:06:33.880 --> 01:06:39.280 for non payment of rent. The Sawyer Yards owner John Deal served Buffalo by 892 01:06:39.320 --> 01:06:45.119 You CEO William McLucas with notice of default and locked them out. He said 893 01:06:45.119 --> 01:06:46.280 he did. It was not a step he wanted to take, but he 894 01:06:46.400 --> 01:06:51.360 had no other choice. Now. Buffalo by You has been in the media 895 01:06:51.880 --> 01:06:57.000 in Houston with many other struggles and particularly on social media, and it's been 896 01:06:57.000 --> 01:07:02.880 documented on several different outlets, particular with regard to defaulting on payments for their 897 01:07:02.880 --> 01:07:10.239 investors using the Next Sea crowdfunding, as well as they're being sued by shareholders 898 01:07:10.519 --> 01:07:16.320 alleging that mclucless committed fraud when acquiring the business. And there's also another lawsuit 899 01:07:16.360 --> 01:07:21.199 from a financial services company that alleges that they are owed ninety four thousand dollars 900 01:07:21.199 --> 01:07:27.960 for work performed between twenty twenty one and twenty and twenty two. Now buff 901 01:07:28.000 --> 01:07:31.239 brew doors are closed, but the CEO says, don't worry, this is 902 01:07:31.320 --> 01:07:38.079 temporary. We'll be back. Social media had a heyday with this and we 903 01:07:38.159 --> 01:07:40.920 have been getting hit up now. Just for those of you who don't know 904 01:07:40.960 --> 01:07:45.840 Buffalo Byue Brewing Company, they were one of the oldest breweries in Houston and 905 01:07:46.079 --> 01:07:49.760 partnered with What's on Tapp Radio for a long time out seven years and seven 906 01:07:50.159 --> 01:07:55.400 seven years. Yeah, we were partners with film YEP. They helped bring 907 01:07:55.440 --> 01:07:59.280 this show to life each and every week, help us make sure that we 908 01:07:59.320 --> 01:08:03.559 could broadcast, and certainly grateful for that. But James, how do you 909 01:08:05.159 --> 01:08:08.559 I mean, you've been getting more emails than I have, Well, not 910 01:08:08.639 --> 01:08:11.280 email, I mean people just text me and text me because you know, 911 01:08:11.320 --> 01:08:14.440 they reached out to me going, hey, you must know the inside scoop. 912 01:08:14.519 --> 01:08:17.560 You and Chad longtime partnership with the Buffalo Byry Brewing Company. You guys 913 01:08:17.640 --> 01:08:20.920 must know the inside scoop. And I'll be honest with you, I don't 914 01:08:20.960 --> 01:08:25.479 know any more than what you know. We hadn't had a partnership with the 915 01:08:25.600 --> 01:08:28.840 Buffalo BYU and probably about a year and a half, maybe two years. 916 01:08:29.159 --> 01:08:34.079 Everybody that we had partnership with over at Buffalo BYU has since moved on. 917 01:08:34.800 --> 01:08:40.319 Every single person, every single Yep. I don't know. I don't think 918 01:08:40.319 --> 01:08:44.600 I know a single person that works at Buffalo Balue Brewing Company anymore. And 919 01:08:44.680 --> 01:08:46.600 so people were hitting me up and I'll be honest with you, I don't 920 01:08:46.680 --> 01:08:49.600 know, and they're like, oh, you're lying. But the truth of 921 01:08:49.680 --> 01:08:53.960 this, I haven't even been to the brewery in about a year, probably 922 01:08:54.000 --> 01:08:57.359 since I think we did our last show there, which probably well over a 923 01:08:57.439 --> 01:09:00.239 year and a half, almost two years ago. It was actually right before 924 01:09:00.279 --> 01:09:03.680 I moved. Yeah, And so when everybody you know went their separate ways, 925 01:09:04.039 --> 01:09:06.880 we went our separate way. And that's how it was. And so 926 01:09:08.279 --> 01:09:12.680 when we got the news of them closing, I learned when you guys learned, 927 01:09:12.960 --> 01:09:15.079 So stop texting me because I don't know any more than you do. 928 01:09:16.039 --> 01:09:18.520 So here's what I'm going to go ahead and add to this. And this 929 01:09:18.600 --> 01:09:25.319 is editorial. So pleased I am, I am, I am stating my 930 01:09:25.640 --> 01:09:30.279 viewpoint on this. Okay. When the brewery opened, it was supposed to 931 01:09:30.359 --> 01:09:34.239 be according to one source inside the brewery who I was close to At the 932 01:09:34.279 --> 01:09:38.600 time, it was supposed to be a I believe it was supposed to be 933 01:09:38.640 --> 01:09:42.800 an eighteen million dollar venture. It ended up being a twenty one million dollar 934 01:09:42.880 --> 01:09:48.520 venture. They found creative ways to get financing and investors, and they had 935 01:09:48.680 --> 01:09:54.560 very aggressive growth plans. I am not going to say that the market has 936 01:09:54.640 --> 01:10:00.920 dictated what has happened, but certainly COVID didn't help. But I know that 937 01:10:00.960 --> 01:10:06.439 they receive some assistance from the PPP program through COVID. That's the to help 938 01:10:06.479 --> 01:10:11.840 pay their employees. So there was a lot of pay that the PPP Payroll 939 01:10:11.880 --> 01:10:16.039 Protection Program. A lot of that happened. But I have no idea, 940 01:10:16.399 --> 01:10:19.560 Like James says, I don't have the inside scoop on this, but I 941 01:10:19.600 --> 01:10:23.319 can tell you right now, when you go into a venture that big, 942 01:10:23.359 --> 01:10:27.399 with that much capital and that much expense, that's a tough ship to keep 943 01:10:27.399 --> 01:10:31.079 afloat in a down economy. But if any news does develop, we will 944 01:10:31.079 --> 01:10:34.239 bring it to you. But I'm saying I'm learning just as fast as you 945 01:10:34.279 --> 01:10:39.359 guys are. Okay, so send us your comments. We'll we'll try and 946 01:10:39.399 --> 01:10:42.760 respond. But other than that, we do not have the scoop. No, 947 01:10:42.920 --> 01:10:45.520 we just know what you know. So all right, coming up to 948 01:10:45.520 --> 01:10:47.840 the last segment, we got to talk about Middle Light and their Super Bowl 949 01:10:47.920 --> 01:10:50.800 plans.

Also, don't be afraid to ask 990 01:13:54.800 --> 01:13:58.720 her for a joke. She always has a new joke every day. That 991 01:13:58.760 --> 01:14:03.000 Denver. I know Tantrick Brewing Company dot com. So some news to get 992 01:14:03.000 --> 01:14:05.960 to before we get out of here. I got an update on the woke 993 01:14:06.119 --> 01:14:13.800 free beer we've been talking about ultra conservative. Yes, it's about about nine 994 01:14:13.800 --> 01:14:17.800 months since they've spring in action. The conservative criticism of Bud Light's trans marketing 995 01:14:17.840 --> 01:14:23.359 campaign, while they came out with their own the Woke Free American Beer put 996 01:14:23.399 --> 01:14:29.199 out by owner Seth Weathers, and he originally contracted with a brewery and Lawrenceville 997 01:14:29.319 --> 01:14:34.079 now uses a larger one in Lakeland of Florida. But they're selling the beers 998 01:14:34.079 --> 01:14:38.119 online. They're selling the beers online, so people been going to his websites 999 01:14:38.319 --> 01:14:43.479 and ordering beers. However, nowadays these would be customers are heading to a 1000 01:14:43.560 --> 01:14:48.640 different website, the Better Business Bureau. They're filing complaints that they have paid 1001 01:14:48.640 --> 01:14:53.840 Weathers for the beer but has never arrived. You know, when you go 1002 01:14:53.880 --> 01:14:58.760 to the Better Business Bureau website, it's generally not to say I love these 1003 01:14:58.800 --> 01:15:00.800 guys, they're the best. I just wanted to drop a line saying how 1004 01:15:00.840 --> 01:15:05.880 they are doing a fantastic job. Yeah. The company currently has an F 1005 01:15:06.000 --> 01:15:13.000 rating with THEBBB out Yeah. One person quoted saying, I don't care what 1006 01:15:13.039 --> 01:15:18.000 the product or ideology you're doing. This is horrible customer service. Apparently one 1007 01:15:18.039 --> 01:15:23.159 of the customer's wife S has placed the order last September and a limited edition 1008 01:15:23.199 --> 01:15:27.840 Conservative Dad's Revenge six pack with Donald Trump's mugshot on the label. Four months 1009 01:15:27.880 --> 01:15:31.199 later, still no beer, and the only response they have received came with 1010 01:15:31.239 --> 01:15:38.760 a generic email offering refunds. But it's so damn frustrating that nobody responds to 1011 01:15:38.800 --> 01:15:44.359 you. This is supposed to be a business. Someone complained on x When 1012 01:15:44.760 --> 01:15:48.079 the news outlet reached out to Weathers about this, what's going on, he 1013 01:15:48.159 --> 01:15:51.880 said that, well, this is a four person company and they're overwhelmed with 1014 01:15:53.039 --> 01:15:57.680 orders and no one bothered to pay attention to the BBB complaints before they ordered. 1015 01:15:57.800 --> 01:16:00.760 Apparently it's been going on for a while. But since it's a four 1016 01:16:00.840 --> 01:16:08.399 man operation and the demand is more than the supply, but someone doesn't went 1017 01:16:08.439 --> 01:16:11.479 their beer at this time, they'll offer them a full refund. They're doing 1018 01:16:11.479 --> 01:16:14.119 the best they can to put the cans out there and get as fast as 1019 01:16:14.159 --> 01:16:17.079 they can. But the company you have scored an f with the BBB. 1020 01:16:17.279 --> 01:16:25.600 Customers are furious also because they've been ordering merch hoodies, shirts, hats all 1021 01:16:25.680 --> 01:16:29.600 that still haven't come in. So yeah, yeah, that happened with another 1022 01:16:29.680 --> 01:16:35.439 brewery and it was one it was by It was a bunch of brewers who 1023 01:16:35.479 --> 01:16:41.199 were trying to raise money for black colleges, that's right. Yeah, And 1024 01:16:41.239 --> 01:16:45.560 they put out hoodies and stuff like that too and never delivered. Yeah, 1025 01:16:45.920 --> 01:16:47.920 yep, yeah, they took the money. And I don't know if the 1026 01:16:47.960 --> 01:16:51.119 money ever made made it to the black colleges that they were trying to raise 1027 01:16:51.159 --> 01:16:56.159 money. I doubt it did. I don't think. So there's your update. 1028 01:16:56.319 --> 01:17:00.439 The Woke Free Beer venture in Georgia earns an f rating with the EBB. 1029 01:17:00.720 --> 01:17:02.399 So if you you know, I thought yourself, Hey, I want 1030 01:17:02.439 --> 01:17:06.520 to get my hands on this, this commemorative beer. Yeah, you might 1031 01:17:06.560 --> 01:17:12.279 want to check the BBB before you do so, so yeah, maybe, 1032 01:17:12.439 --> 01:17:15.800 yeah, before you hand it over it anyway, all right, super Bowl, 1033 01:17:15.960 --> 01:17:18.039 Big Game. I know I can't wait for the commercials my favorite part, 1034 01:17:19.159 --> 01:17:24.840 and I know it's seven million dollars for thirty second spot. Yeah a 1035 01:17:24.920 --> 01:17:27.439 lot. If you're looking for Heineken, you won't see it. And if 1036 01:17:27.479 --> 01:17:30.159 you're looking for Miller Light, you're not going to see. If you're allowed 1037 01:17:30.199 --> 01:17:33.479 for cores like oh they're bringing the train back, but you're not going to 1038 01:17:33.520 --> 01:17:38.000 see a Miller like commercial. No, no, forging a big game spot 1039 01:17:38.199 --> 01:17:43.079 in the Big Game that's gonna run you about seven million dollars thirty seconds A 1040 01:17:43.159 --> 01:17:45.239 lot of money at them. That's why we couldn't. That's why we couldn't 1041 01:17:45.239 --> 01:17:48.159 afford to put a spot in the super Bowl. That's right, What's on 1042 01:17:48.199 --> 01:17:56.359 Tap Radio the unofficial official beer radio show sponsor of the Big Game. We 1043 01:17:56.359 --> 01:17:59.119 were gonna put a spot out there, but we were about seven million dollars 1044 01:17:59.119 --> 01:18:01.479 short. We were. By the way, if you want to sponsor the 1045 01:18:01.479 --> 01:18:04.720 show, reach out to us. What's on Tapperradio gmail dot com. Anyway, 1046 01:18:04.720 --> 01:18:09.439 we were. There are a thousand people, though that they're counting on 1047 01:18:10.000 --> 01:18:15.560 is helping them promote their brand because nobody really yeah Miller Lite, Okay, 1048 01:18:15.239 --> 01:18:17.680 yeah, thousand people. I mean, if they can get a thousand people 1049 01:18:17.680 --> 01:18:20.119 to help them, I think it'll really help their sales take off. Because 1050 01:18:20.159 --> 01:18:23.920 Miller Light, nobody really knows who they are. They're kind of struggling. 1051 01:18:26.000 --> 01:18:29.640 That's not a really well known sarcasm, folks. Sarcasm. Yeah, that's 1052 01:18:29.720 --> 01:18:33.680 right. But I have a feeling this is just a hunch that the thousand 1053 01:18:33.800 --> 01:18:40.359 people who get this item may actually get it, unlike all the other Miller 1054 01:18:40.399 --> 01:18:45.159 Lite items which they advertise. But what they are doing is they are tasking 1055 01:18:45.239 --> 01:18:50.319 one thousand QR code wearing fans to embark on a beer run on the big 1056 01:18:50.359 --> 01:18:57.079 game day and help get some beer money. What now, how's this gonna 1057 01:18:57.119 --> 01:18:59.880 work? I'm not exactly sure, but this is kind of cool. So 1058 01:19:00.399 --> 01:19:04.039 Miller, like, instead of running a beer commercial, is going to have 1059 01:19:04.079 --> 01:19:11.960 a thousand football fans and they're going to wear this shirt that's got a QR 1060 01:19:12.039 --> 01:19:14.439 code on it. I believe that's how it is. They're going to go 1061 01:19:14.479 --> 01:19:16.560 on a run and there's a thousand people they're going to serve as the official 1062 01:19:16.600 --> 01:19:21.239 brand ambassador, and they're gonna go on this whole big marketing deep dive and 1063 01:19:23.359 --> 01:19:27.800 consumers that starting on February first, which will have been able to sign up 1064 01:19:27.840 --> 01:19:31.319 online to receive the Miller game time jersey, which was a couple of a 1065 01:19:31.319 --> 01:19:34.359 couple of days ago. See better hurry right right, yes, yeah, 1066 01:19:34.439 --> 01:19:39.960 yeah, it hasn't sold out already. And then you can wear this while 1067 01:19:40.000 --> 01:19:44.159 you're going out during the commercial breaks or you know, whenever, wherever, 1068 01:19:44.319 --> 01:19:46.159 whenever you decide to step out, go get more beer. I don't know 1069 01:19:46.159 --> 01:19:48.199 people that leave in the middle of the game and go get more beer, 1070 01:19:48.239 --> 01:19:55.479 but whatever. Yes, but if you do these jerseys, what you're gonna 1071 01:19:55.479 --> 01:19:59.600 be offered to a thousand customers can be scanned for a chance to win beer 1072 01:19:59.640 --> 01:20:01.079 money. I like that. That's kind of fun. That's fun, all 1073 01:20:01.159 --> 01:20:05.600 right. Yes, they've teamed up with the lead beer runner, who is 1074 01:20:05.720 --> 01:20:11.039 actor and comedian Rob Wriggle, and he's gonna be participating in it. This 1075 01:20:11.840 --> 01:20:15.520 is a different move for them, high stakes beer move. But Miller Lite 1076 01:20:15.640 --> 01:20:19.039 joining. As I said, Heineken, who will be foregoing their spots this 1077 01:20:19.119 --> 01:20:25.399 year, but be looking for that cors Light Train and a thousand beer advocates 1078 01:20:25.399 --> 01:20:28.439 out there. I teach marketing and journalism, and I feel like this is 1079 01:20:28.479 --> 01:20:30.520 a new way of marketing and we're gonna see a lot more of this in 1080 01:20:30.520 --> 01:20:32.239 the future. I feel like with the Core's light and Mirller Light, the 1081 01:20:32.239 --> 01:20:35.319 way they're doing marketing these days, you can start seeing more companies do that 1082 01:20:35.359 --> 01:20:38.800 in the future. So look out for that. All right. We have 1083 01:20:38.840 --> 01:20:42.239 got to say goodbye. But before we do, let's tank our sponsors, 1084 01:20:42.279 --> 01:20:45.319 Chad.
