My mom sent me a text this morning, 36 00:03:23,039 --> 00:03:25,840 Oh, I because she listened to last week's show when I had the 37 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:30,240 beer that you sent on. She's like, oh, I love that name. 38 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,479 I said, Well, it's actually a podcast and I'm going to talk 39 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:39,240 to them today. Make sure to tell them I love the name. So, 40 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:44,280 Mom, when you listen to their podcast, give them five stars. 41 00:03:44,319 --> 00:03:47,439 Don't give them one star like you give me. Give their show five stars, 42 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:53,560 mom, Oh Mom, five stars too. Yeah. Now the show 43 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:59,960 you guys have been out since what March of twenty one? Ye? Yeah, 44 00:04:00,439 --> 00:04:03,639 just hit our two year mark and totally forgot about it, blew right 45 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:09,840 past it. What made you decide that, you know, we want to 46 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:15,120 do a podcast together? I think so they for a very short time where 47 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,160 we work, shut us down everybody, you know, because of the pandemic, 48 00:04:18,639 --> 00:04:23,879 and we were sitting at home and it was just like I think we 49 00:04:23,879 --> 00:04:27,720 were listening to a podcast. Well, we I mean, we shut down 50 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,600 for a couple months, but then when we went back to work, we 51 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,000 were very used to day drinking, you know, for a couple of months 52 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:38,160 that we had off and we'd come home from work and kind of be frustrated 53 00:04:38,199 --> 00:04:41,279 that we were at work and a lot of the country was still shut down, 54 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:46,240 and we'd drink and then we'd just start bitching. And you know, 55 00:04:46,319 --> 00:04:49,959 in one of the drunking bitching sessions, Jay's like, we should we should 56 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:55,439 totally start a podcast where we're bitching about work, and yeah, and you 57 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:59,600 know, we didn't really want it to be us just bitching about our work 58 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:03,079 because that wouldn't be relatable to everybody, so we wanted to make it so 59 00:05:03,519 --> 00:05:09,040 we originally thought it would be more of like people just kind of anonymously ranting, 60 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,680 like things they just wanted to tell their boss forever and can't. But 61 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,439 then it just turned into more send us there a weird story about what happened 62 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,560 to you at work, which I think works better anyway, Yeah, it 63 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:26,439 works better. You guys have some great merch. I need to pick up 64 00:05:26,519 --> 00:05:31,439 the Namas day Fucker's yoga math. Do have some high quality merch available. 65 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,639 Thanks, I've pared it down a lot. I went nuts when we first 66 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:41,360 opened our merch shop and started using Canva, and I had all kinds of 67 00:05:41,439 --> 00:05:44,240 stuff and I was like, I need to pare this down, make it 68 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,240 a little bit easier for people to get through. But I had to keep 69 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,439 that yoga mat. Yeah, oh that's fantastic. I'm like, I need 70 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:55,680 to grab this. I need to get myself one too. Yeah, me 71 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,160 too. Yeah. Yeah. For all the yoga that you for all the 72 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,079 yoga that I do. How did you both meet at work? Is there 73 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:09,879 like a good work part to this relationship? Kind of kind of um? 74 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,519 I was, so I used to travel quite a bit from my work for 75 00:06:13,519 --> 00:06:17,360 for my work, and I was going overseas, like basically the only place 76 00:06:17,399 --> 00:06:21,000 I went to Israel was to Israel. But I would go come home, 77 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:25,920 go come home, go come home. And there was one year where it 78 00:06:25,959 --> 00:06:29,439 was like ten months out of that year I was in Israel because I would 79 00:06:29,439 --> 00:06:32,160 go for three months at a time. And one of the times that I 80 00:06:32,199 --> 00:06:39,519 came back, one of our work friends was having a was it was it 81 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:44,399 Labor Day barbecue? I think it was Labor Day barbecue, and she invited 82 00:06:44,439 --> 00:06:48,439 both of us with the you know, with the uh intent. Yeah, 83 00:06:48,879 --> 00:06:54,079 sorry, that course lights getting to you. Yeah, well it's Corona right 84 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:58,639 now. But yeah, she had the intent of like hooking us up, 85 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,199 and you know, he was like, I'm you know this good thing girls 86 00:07:02,199 --> 00:07:08,199 always do. I'm not looking for anyone. That's exactly what I sounded like. 87 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:15,279 And then I courted her for a couple months like a gentleman, and 88 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,040 you know, and then the rest is history. Yeah. So we gray 89 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,839 hairs. Yeah, yeah, a lot of gray hairs. Yeah, we 90 00:07:20,879 --> 00:07:26,079 work. We work at the same company. But it wasn't like, oh, 91 00:07:26,199 --> 00:07:29,399 we were friends at work and then we started It was really I because 92 00:07:29,439 --> 00:07:31,720 I, oh, I'm gonna try to keep it sure. But I worked 93 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,160 at this company a long time ago, which is where I knew our mutual 94 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:39,040 friend from. And then I left for ten years and when I came back, 95 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,800 she still worked there and she was friends with Jay and she was like, 96 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,240 oh, I want to set you guys up. Like no, and 97 00:07:44,279 --> 00:07:46,560 he had been gone, he'd been traveling, so I had never actually met 98 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,800 him at work until I met him at her barbecue. So yes, we 99 00:07:50,839 --> 00:07:54,959 met at work, but not not really. Yes, it's not like you 100 00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:03,480 were one cube over over from each other, right, yeah? Yeah, 101 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,720 did you both work at the same place? Do like people at your company 102 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:13,399 know about this podcast if you had any like blowback from management or whatever. 103 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,120 Not yet A lot of people know about it. A lot of our co 104 00:08:18,319 --> 00:08:22,279 workers know about it. I don't really know how they found out. We 105 00:08:22,399 --> 00:08:26,319 don't. We've never said where we work, what we do, or used 106 00:08:26,399 --> 00:08:31,759 our real names on the podcast, but somehow people started finding out, and 107 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,399 we haven't heard anything from HR or management. Yeah. I don't think. 108 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,120 I don't think they can because their big thing is like, like when we 109 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:46,919 bitch about work, it's very uh, what's the word, It's very vague. 110 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,279 Yeah. Yeah, So so we don't use people's names that work there. 111 00:08:50,399 --> 00:08:54,720 We don't, you know, we don't use the company names. People 112 00:08:54,759 --> 00:09:01,200 don't even know what we actually do for a job. And so it if 113 00:09:01,399 --> 00:09:05,919 HR was to approach us about it, what could they really say? Yeah, 114 00:09:07,039 --> 00:09:11,120 like what what what could they really do? You know? There's they 115 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:15,559 would have. First of all, they would have no actual proof, like 116 00:09:15,759 --> 00:09:18,399 solid proof that it's us. And let's say, go to our Instagram and 117 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:22,639 look at our pictures. Well, don't give them, We're just promoting that. 118 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:28,240 We're just promoting there our friends. Yeah, we've tried to give them 119 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:33,840 no reason to shut us down if if they do find out. So yeah, 120 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:39,200 but a lot of our coworkers know about it. Yeah I don't know 121 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:43,279 how. Yeah, well that's because the show is good and it's popular and 122 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,440 people listen. Yeah, like our biggest our biggest city in our stats is 123 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:50,759 is our city, which is cool. Oh yeah, I didn't know that. 124 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:56,120 Yeah, look at that. I mean, so we're basically like locally 125 00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:01,559 famous. Yeah, okay, so on that, Um, we have a 126 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,960 fee to come on other people's podcasts since we're famous. Yeah, and that 127 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,519 fee is beer. Okay and you paid? Yeah, yeah, there we 128 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:15,320 go. Or since the topic of this show is beer, I still have 129 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:20,519 like five more of these left that I could mail out. Uh that's well. 130 00:10:20,039 --> 00:10:24,279 Yeah, I mean, look, I ain't never gonna turn down a 131 00:10:24,399 --> 00:10:26,679 Coors Light, but I don't. I don't want to put you out man. 132 00:10:26,799 --> 00:10:31,600 Yeah. Well, the beer that we're gonna have now is Coors Light. 133 00:10:33,159 --> 00:10:35,759 This is what I haven't had on the show. Coors Light is a 134 00:10:35,799 --> 00:10:39,799 big part of the Fuck My Work Life show. It's Jay's favorite. So 135 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,720 I'm like, well, I have to do Coors Light sooner or later, 136 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:48,480 I might as well talk to j n K about it. So, Jay, 137 00:10:48,759 --> 00:10:52,399 you're the fan. Why do you love Coors Light? So? I 138 00:10:54,799 --> 00:11:01,240 because it's it's light. Uh, it's crisp. And also so I think 139 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:07,320 the po the popularity or the notoriety that I've given, like cores Light on 140 00:11:07,399 --> 00:11:11,480 our podcast. Like the notoriety to me is because when we would record, 141 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:18,639 if I was drinking IPA's or like the Craft Beers, there's times where I 142 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:24,000 go through like nine beers in the the in a sitting of recording a podcast, 143 00:11:24,039 --> 00:11:28,639 and if I was drinking that, I would be completely unintelligible. I'd 144 00:11:28,639 --> 00:11:33,159 probably puke. I'd be on the floor. And so a big part of 145 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:37,399 me liking it is I can I can drink it at leisure and it doesn't 146 00:11:37,919 --> 00:11:41,080 just wreck me. Yeah. And it's only one four four and a half 147 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:46,080 percent, so it's not I think it's a point four point two. Yeah, 148 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,440 it's it's pretty low. So you know, I can go through them 149 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,840 and it doesn't. You know, I'm not completely hammered. Sometimes I still 150 00:11:52,879 --> 00:11:58,960 get completely hammered, but that's like a twelve pack in you know. But 151 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:03,039 I do like other beers. Like we go to breweries and I drink you 152 00:12:03,039 --> 00:12:07,000 know, like the Kraft beers, and I enjoy them. I just can't 153 00:12:07,039 --> 00:12:09,080 drink too many of them. Yeah, I can't drink too many of them. 154 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:13,159 Well, I'm gonna crack open. The core is light. My mountain 155 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,200 is blue, so that's good. Perfect, I got my blue mountains to 156 00:12:16,279 --> 00:12:20,120 you. I'm gonna crack one open too. All right, there we go. 157 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,159 It was weird. I ain't a hard time finding this in his six 158 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:26,279 pack. Every place that I looked through, they were like a ton of 159 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,639 twelve packs. And I didn't know if I had that kind of commitment issue 160 00:12:28,639 --> 00:12:31,120 in me. They had twelve of them, So I'm like, let me 161 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:35,240 find a six pack of it. Yeah, same here too. If you 162 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:39,840 go to the like the liquor stores, I think it's easier to find a 163 00:12:39,879 --> 00:12:43,679 six pack. But the grocery stores, it's all the thirty thirty pack of 164 00:12:43,879 --> 00:12:48,000 cans or the twelve pack of bottles. Yeah, I mean our our little 165 00:12:48,039 --> 00:12:52,600 local liquor store right across the street. I'm I'm friends with the with the 166 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:56,279 I think he's like part owner of it, but he's always there. He's 167 00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,399 the one who runs it and works it, and he used to only have 168 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,200 the eighteen pack of Hans and the twelve pack of Hans and the twelve pack 169 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:07,919 of bottles. And I was like, dude, you gotta get six packs, 170 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:09,600 because I get a twelve pack and I just blow through it. And 171 00:13:09,639 --> 00:13:13,039 it's like, you know, if you if you carried six packs, I'd 172 00:13:13,039 --> 00:13:16,480 get those, you know, I'd get those more and I wouldn't drink as 173 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:20,000 much. And I still do. But all right, well, I'm gonna 174 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:26,000 have the Coors Light here. Smells like just a regular old school Macro beer. 175 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,240 Yep, it's not bad. I mean, I can't remember the last 176 00:13:28,279 --> 00:13:31,840 time I had a Coors Light, but it's not a bad beer at all. 177 00:13:33,039 --> 00:13:37,600 No, it doesn't have a very strong flavor at all, which you 178 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,879 know I've had, you know, kind of the not alternative. What's the 179 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:43,679 word I'm like for like a Bud Light, I don't think taste as good 180 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:48,960 as a Coors Light. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's easy to drink. 181 00:13:50,039 --> 00:13:54,600 It's definitely not offensive. I don't think like anyone could drink this and 182 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,559 find something that's offensive about it. It goes down pretty good. People do 183 00:13:58,639 --> 00:14:03,559 though. People do like people They're like, oh course, look piss water, 184 00:14:05,159 --> 00:14:09,559 and it's like, look, you you're throwing all this shade at Cores 185 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,919 Light. But go to any bar or any like dive bar. You know, 186 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:18,480 as long as it's you're not going to like the Ritz Carlton bar, 187 00:14:18,159 --> 00:14:22,879 You're gonna find Cores Light, either in a bottle or on tap. And 188 00:14:22,919 --> 00:14:26,519 it's been that way for who knows how many decades, you know, So 189 00:14:26,639 --> 00:14:31,039 it can't be as shitty as people want to say it is, because if 190 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:35,360 it was, it would be in none of those bars. It would be 191 00:14:35,399 --> 00:14:39,399 in none of those restaurants. It wouldn't be on the shelves at every single 192 00:14:39,519 --> 00:14:43,240 store that sells beer. Yeah, you know, it just wouldn't be there. 193 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:48,960 All all your fruity you know, grapefruit this and that. You know, 194 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:52,000 those beers would be there. They should make a grapefruit Cores Light. 195 00:14:52,399 --> 00:14:58,879 No, they should that, don't you. Don't you talk that mess. 196 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:03,159 You can actually just wheeze of fresh grapefruit into this and it would probably be 197 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:07,679 delicious. You know, I think we're on something. Yea, all the 198 00:15:07,759 --> 00:15:13,759 ways you can. Yeah, now I had one of these last night, 199 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,399 and actually, you know, their whole thing is drinking ice cold. The 200 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:20,679 blue mountains. All this is it warmed up. To me, it tasted 201 00:15:20,759 --> 00:15:24,879 better, So I think it's better when it's not freezing cold. I think 202 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:28,440 for me, I had more, a little bit more of the malt taste 203 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:33,399 to it. I thought it tasted better, you know, above freezing. 204 00:15:33,919 --> 00:15:37,440 Yeah, yeah, I think. I think it's people's palates. You know, 205 00:15:37,519 --> 00:15:43,440 people's palates are different, you know, like I used to enjoy drinking 206 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,639 a Newcastle that was lukewarm. Yeah, you know, I don't really drink 207 00:15:46,639 --> 00:15:54,320 Newcastle anymore. But and I don't like like a warm, coarse light. 208 00:15:54,879 --> 00:15:58,240 But if the mountains are just a little light blue, I'm okay with drinking 209 00:15:58,279 --> 00:16:03,039 it. You know, it doesn't it's not like it has a horrible taste. 210 00:16:03,039 --> 00:16:08,240 It's I do like it ice cold. I do prefer it ice cold 211 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,919 because you know, mountains are blue. You know it's true. Baby. 212 00:16:14,679 --> 00:16:18,720 Well, I'm sorry, Kay. Did you get the cores light nail polish 213 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:23,279 when it came out and change colors when like, I guess your hands were 214 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:27,960 cold. I'm not gonna lie. I tried. Hey, they would release 215 00:16:29,279 --> 00:16:33,159 like a little bit of it every Tuesday, and every Tuesday I check sold 216 00:16:33,159 --> 00:16:36,600 out, sold out. I tried for a few weeks and I couldn't get 217 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,799 it. I really wanted to try it. What beers, kay? Do 218 00:16:40,879 --> 00:16:44,840 you what's like your favorite beer that's out there? Um? I mean, 219 00:16:44,879 --> 00:16:48,759 I do enjoy cores light, and that's usually the thing I drink most because 220 00:16:48,759 --> 00:16:56,440 it's available in our house almost at all times. But I definitely I enjoy 221 00:16:56,759 --> 00:17:02,080 Probably my favorite is from local breweries like Oh, I really enjoy their Mexican 222 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:07,279 Lagger. I also really enjoy their Vienna Lagger, which is kind of a 223 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:11,079 dark it's like a dark brownish color, but it's not it doesn't taste like 224 00:17:11,759 --> 00:17:15,960 a dark poor yeah, but it's it's delicious, So I don't. I 225 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:23,119 don't enjoy hoppy beers. UM like more of the the Lugger multi wheat type 226 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:30,160 beers. I had a I don't know my favorite us to a favorite beer. 227 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:34,680 So there's a brewery in central California called Slow Brewery and they have a 228 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:40,480 pink lemonade lagger that is so good. Yeah, that's probably my favorite. 229 00:17:40,519 --> 00:17:42,480 I don't even know if they still make it. It was seasonal, but 230 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:48,440 I ordered like a not a palette, but a case of it wants to 231 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,799 be delivered and it's a it's delicious. It tastes like a delicious pink lemonade 232 00:17:52,799 --> 00:17:56,160 beer. And the and the pumpkin beers. She she loves the pumpkin beers 233 00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:00,079 like Halloween time comes around and she stalks up. I think we still have 234 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,640 some in the yip and the pantry. We do just in case. It's 235 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:11,319 aged now right exactly? Yeah, is it warms up? I think that's 236 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:15,680 getting a little bit better. Like I prefer it not thirty three degrees, 237 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:21,119 maybe like forty five. I think you get more out of that. I 238 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:25,200 think the best way to drink Coors Light is from tap. Yeah, in 239 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:30,000 a frozen mug where you get the little icebergs forming at the top. That's 240 00:18:30,079 --> 00:18:37,240 my favorite. I do prefer Cores Light from a tap in like a frosty 241 00:18:37,319 --> 00:18:41,160 mug. Like we have a we have a restaurant islands here. I think 242 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:47,839 they're I think they're a nationationwide right islands and they have like the Cores Light 243 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:52,200 and a frosty mug on tap, and it's so good. It's so it's 244 00:18:52,279 --> 00:18:59,240 crisp and refreshing, especially on a hot summer day. I think most beers 245 00:18:59,279 --> 00:19:03,759 are better on tap than they are out of a bottle, Like you know, 246 00:19:03,799 --> 00:19:07,000 I was talk I've talked on my show a million times about Sam Adams, 247 00:19:07,039 --> 00:19:11,160 which was the first craft beer I had, and sam Adams on tap 248 00:19:11,279 --> 00:19:15,240 is a thousand times better than what you just get in a bottle somewhere. 249 00:19:15,519 --> 00:19:18,079 Yeah, so you have to wind up going to you know, I mean 250 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:22,519 sam Adams. You could find it almost every bar usually that's one. If 251 00:19:22,519 --> 00:19:25,920 I'm at a Chili's or a Friday's or at a place like that, I 252 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,359 know, I could just get a Sam Adams and it'll be good. Yeah. 253 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:33,759 Now, in addition to the podcast that comes out weekly, you also 254 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,640 have TikTok. You're on Instagram. You guys are all over. I enjoyed 255 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:44,200 your TikTok videos around the holidays when you were drinking the holiday beers. Yes, 256 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:45,960 that's a fun thing. We've been doing it for a couple of years. 257 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,559 Even we started it before we even had the podcast, just on Instagram, 258 00:19:49,559 --> 00:19:53,160 doing like seasonal holiday beer reviews. So that was that's a lot of 259 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,079 fun. Yeah, it's fun. And then we have, of course had 260 00:19:56,119 --> 00:20:00,920 to do a review of course, like fun of course where we knocked over 261 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:07,680 the and there was what what the one where you were sneaking the last Coors 262 00:20:07,759 --> 00:20:11,200 Light out of the bridge. Yes, yeah, oh yeah, dumb ways 263 00:20:11,279 --> 00:20:18,720 to die. Yeah, back to the podcast. Has anything surprised you hearing 264 00:20:19,559 --> 00:20:22,920 stories from other people? I mean, is anything you're just like, holy 265 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:27,920 fuck, I can't believe this ship went down? Or you pretty much yeah 266 00:20:29,039 --> 00:20:32,799 right, I could see that happening. Well you said the magic word shit. 267 00:20:33,279 --> 00:20:40,880 Yeah, so many stories involving actual shit, Like, how like, 268 00:20:41,039 --> 00:20:44,000 why are there so many? Yeah, it was, it was. It 269 00:20:44,079 --> 00:20:48,960 was very surprising, like when we first started the podcast, how many people 270 00:20:49,079 --> 00:20:56,680 have run into like human excrement in their work. You know. It's it's 271 00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:00,920 like there was so many stories of you know, people going through a department 272 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,000 store and just drop and trow and taking a ship in the middle of you 273 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:08,960 know, it's like, holy shit. Literally. Yeah, I think that's 274 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,839 been the most surprising. We've had a lot. We've had such a variety 275 00:21:12,839 --> 00:21:17,519 of stories, but those are the ones that always stand out because we just 276 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:21,359 laugh whenever we get another one. We're like, another another shit story, 277 00:21:21,519 --> 00:21:25,880 another shit show. Yeah. I had one because I work at an airport 278 00:21:26,319 --> 00:21:30,079 and this was years ago, and I'm walking to my next assignment and it's 279 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:34,519 the airports. A million people, so you're trying to dodge the slow walkers 280 00:21:34,519 --> 00:21:38,920 to get around them, right into a pilot dog shit right on the concourse, 281 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:44,000 And I'm like, you're in a fucking airport. Why is there dog 282 00:21:44,079 --> 00:21:48,960 shit? So I was the next gate down. I tell my coworker, 283 00:21:48,039 --> 00:21:52,519 Dude, I'm going to have to go to the bathroom and wash my shoe 284 00:21:52,559 --> 00:21:56,079 off because I think I just stepped in shit and he's busting up laughing. 285 00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:00,640 So aim in the bathroom with my shoe off, trying to like, you 286 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,680 know, use the automated sink at the airport to try to get the ship 287 00:22:03,799 --> 00:22:08,680 off my shoe, like wipe that up. Carry a bag with you, 288 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,599 Yeah, if you're especially if you're in a place where you know you're gonna 289 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:17,559 be indoors, I mean you should also clean it up outdoors, but like 290 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:22,559 where there are a ton of people walking. Yeah, if you're traveling on 291 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:30,119 encased capsule with a pet, yes, you should probably have bags. Yeah. 292 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,519 And even if you don't have bags, you're in an airport, there's 293 00:22:33,519 --> 00:22:37,720 going to be someplace with napkins or paper towels. Use something to clean it 294 00:22:37,799 --> 00:22:40,680 up so people can't walk in it. It's so rude, Like me, 295 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:42,920 yes, yeah, and you're of course you're at an airport. You're not 296 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:48,839 going to expect to step in dog shit walking down the concourse. Now I 297 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,079 look on the ground, but I'm walking just in case, even thirty years 298 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,799 later. All right, where do I have here? Yeah?

This is 314 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:11,400 Stevie and I'm Aggie, and we are bfy tw a podcast all about playing 315 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,880 games and having fun. Our games are usually based on British panel shows and 316 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,240 game shows, but we'll play anything that captures our attention and imagination. Why 317 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,359 it's right there in the title. You'll never guess what the F stands for. 318 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:37,119 Head over to b F ytw and check their podcast out. In Beer 319 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:44,960 News this week, German monks have created a powdered beer. I know I'm 320 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:52,240 going to screw up this name, but Klauster Brewery, New Zell they've developed 321 00:24:52,279 --> 00:24:59,240 a product where you just add water in a frothy beverage. Is the result 322 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:04,599 Kerr. Only a non alcoholic version is being tested, but they do want 323 00:25:04,599 --> 00:25:12,119 to make and test some alcoholic version soon. So I guess beer will be 324 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:17,680 like Tang. You just put a scoop in the glass and pour water and 325 00:25:18,319 --> 00:25:22,400 off you go. And I know I'm not skewing any younger by making a 326 00:25:22,519 --> 00:25:30,200 Tang reference, but the astronauts drink it and I loved it. March thirty 327 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:36,559 first is ninety shilling day, Odell Brewing and Fort Collins, Colorado is celebrating 328 00:25:36,599 --> 00:25:41,400 their iconic beer with events around the country. Head over to Odell Brewing dot 329 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:48,880 com for more info. Normally, I'm not a big Chilata person. However, 330 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:55,279 bud Light has a new one out in collaboration with Taheen. I love 331 00:25:55,400 --> 00:26:00,440 me some Tahein on everything, so I'm going to have to try this one 332 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:06,960 out. Over on Brewbound, I saw that two craft beer distributors in Washington 333 00:26:07,039 --> 00:26:11,880 State are closing next month after being bought out by their parent company, PepsiCo, 334 00:26:12,519 --> 00:26:18,640 and this has already resulted in some layoffs at breweries in Washington and this 335 00:26:18,799 --> 00:26:22,279 is probably going to affect them for quite a while, so it's kind of 336 00:26:22,279 --> 00:26:29,200 shitty from PepsiCo. New Belgium is buying the old Ballist Point facility in Virginia 337 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:33,960 from Constellation Brands and we'll be pumping out a lot more Voodoo Ranger there. 338 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:41,839 Locally, the huge Lagunitas tap room in Chicago is opening again on April thirteenth. 339 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:47,400 They shut down when the pandemic hit, so it's been three years, 340 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:52,720 so that was always a good time. Check out the new Lagunitas once it 341 00:26:52,759 --> 00:26:57,400 reopens in April. This looks pretty cool. Revolution and Hope. Well, 342 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:03,400 now they're neighbors right there on the street in the Logan Square area. They're 343 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:07,920 coming out with the new beer called Logan Export. This is an export style 344 00:27:08,039 --> 00:27:15,720 lager and according to them, the release it's lightly sweet and refreshingly dry. 345 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:22,160 Now proceeds and some of this are going to benefit Logan Boulevard Skate Park, 346 00:27:22,559 --> 00:27:27,119 So look for that starting today March twenty ninth at the tap Room and Brewpub 347 00:27:27,319 --> 00:27:32,279 and it's going to be distributed around the Midwest soon, so check out Logan 348 00:27:32,519 --> 00:27:38,039 Export. And finally, Illinois Craft Beer Week is going to be from May 349 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:44,559 nineteenth through the twenty sixth, and the Beer under Glass is going to close 350 00:27:44,599 --> 00:27:49,599 out the week at Union Station, so definitely check that out. Illinois Craft 351 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:56,160 Beer Week in Beer under Glass is always a phenomenal event, so be sure 352 00:27:56,200 --> 00:28:11,799 to check that out. Welcome to another Vier in Front pizza review. Last 353 00:28:11,839 --> 00:28:17,359 week, I made a Saint Louis style pizza with pro Vel cheese from Emos. 354 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:21,759 Brian Marjiatta over three sent it out to me. I made it, 355 00:28:21,839 --> 00:28:26,119 I had it. I talked about it for the podcast on the Pizza episode, 356 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,880 and there was like a recording issue. I don't know if it was 357 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,279 my microphone or whatever, but it was a corrupt file. When I tried 358 00:28:33,279 --> 00:28:37,640 to get the file back, it just sounded horrible. So I didn't have 359 00:28:37,759 --> 00:28:41,519 enough time to get it into last week's show. But I wanted to make 360 00:28:41,519 --> 00:28:47,839 a pizza again with the cheese and talk about it because Brian was so kind 361 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,839 to send it over. So I made it again and let's talk about it 362 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:56,519 now. I used a different crust for this than I did last time. 363 00:28:56,559 --> 00:29:00,079 This is just a regular store bought crust from pasta Rette, which I like, 364 00:29:00,359 --> 00:29:04,039 so let's give it a try. I think this is good. It's 365 00:29:04,079 --> 00:29:11,559 got a slight little tang to it that I don't get from Mozzarella, very 366 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,720 little smokiness. Now. My wife Ruby had it last week and she thought 367 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:19,400 it was too smoky. I think the smoke is subtle on here. I 368 00:29:19,559 --> 00:29:25,480 enjoy it. The only thing, and I noticed it last week as well, 369 00:29:26,279 --> 00:29:30,440 is that this is a processed cheese food. It sticks to my dental 370 00:29:30,519 --> 00:29:34,880 work. Nothing that brushing my teeth won't solve. But that's something from this 371 00:29:36,039 --> 00:29:38,920 that I don't get from Mozzarella. If I was in Saint Louis, I 372 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:45,400 would order this hands down, no hesitation. After fifty five years of eating 373 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:49,559 mozzarella on pizza, that would probably still be what I would ask for if 374 00:29:49,559 --> 00:29:53,559 I had to choose between the two. But I definitely don't pooh pooh this. 375 00:29:55,119 --> 00:29:57,720 I don't hate this. I think it's pretty good. So Brian, 376 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:03,440 thank you. My apologies for not getting the clip out on last week's show. 377 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,839 But no, if you're in the Saint Louis area, find Brian over 378 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:12,039 a three to one pour for any pizza and beer recommendations. You can check 379 00:30:12,039 --> 00:30:18,000 out Eat Most Pizza if you want a good traditional Saint Louis style pot. 380 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:30,640 Thank you. Cheers. All right, Well, the beer in front of 381 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,759 me. I talked about it a little bit with Jay and Kay, but 382 00:30:33,839 --> 00:30:37,920 I wanted to have it. Well, I'm just here isolated, no distraction, 383 00:30:38,039 --> 00:30:44,440 so I could focus purely on the beer. This is Coors Light and 384 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:49,720 my Mountain is blue. It looks nice. The color is good on this. 385 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:56,839 It's a macro logger. You're not expecting anything but just a crisp, 386 00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:00,720 clean looking beer, which this covers all of those. I mean, your 387 00:31:00,759 --> 00:31:04,880 roma is not bad. Your roma it smells like a macrologger. I mean 388 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,119 there's no other way to put it. I mean, it's not a bad 389 00:31:07,119 --> 00:31:11,559 smell at all. I think you're almost pretty decent. It's not a bad 390 00:31:11,599 --> 00:31:17,359 beer. Like I mentioned on the interview, there's nothing about this that's offensive. 391 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,480 You could drink this everywhere you go. You can find cores light. 392 00:31:22,119 --> 00:31:25,160 It's not a defensive beer. Is it the best beer I've ever had? 393 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:29,519 Absolutely not. Is it the best beer I'm gonna have all day today? 394 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:37,079 No, But it's drinkable. It accomplishes what it sets to accomplish. It's 395 00:31:37,079 --> 00:31:45,440 a lower calorie macro lagger. It sells a shit ton of beer. So 396 00:31:45,559 --> 00:31:48,440 who am I to say that this is bad. It's not a bad beer 397 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:52,559 at all. Yeah, I do think it gets better as it warms up 398 00:31:52,599 --> 00:31:56,640 a little bit. Now I have this, it's slightly above our average. 399 00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:01,640 I scored this at five point four on a one to ten scale. So 400 00:32:01,839 --> 00:32:05,240 I mean, if you see it, then you want something light and you 401 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,200 could find it anywhere. You can find it, probably at any gas station 402 00:32:07,279 --> 00:32:15,279 you go to in the country or have a Cour's light. All right, 403 00:32:15,359 --> 00:32:20,160 that's going to wrap things up for this week's episode of Beer in Front. 404 00:32:20,279 --> 00:32:23,359 I thank you very much for listening. I want to thank again Jay and 405 00:32:23,559 --> 00:32:30,799 k from Fuck My Work Life.
