Ice Bear (00:33)
of all the smooth silks and all the land. These are the silkiest.
Grizz (00:41)
See that was beautiful that was a good start I think that was a perfect reintroduction it's been what a good a good decade Lord no no no olas papa is who they are they are okay all right we're sitting person keep going a tenth of what a tenth of what a tenth of a centennial
Ice Bear (00:45)
That was a start.
Just a solid decade. You know, just a tenth of...
of a centennial, a one hundredth of a millennium.
Grizz (01:09)
That's
times pass, things change. I grew a beard. You're now a full-blooded maple leaf Canadian. That's sad.
Ice Bear (01:16)
I still have a beard.
no longer in America. In the great white
north.
Grizz (01:26)
kind of beautiful it's also sad also my favorite thing right now is with all the trolling things going on between the old Freedom Land and Mapletown is that people are calling Canadians Leafs lord anyways people are calling Canadians Leafs and they're like you Leafs it's like get out of here Leaf your time is the the rake of freedoms coming for you
Ice Bear (01:40)
It's.
Look,
all I'm saying is the goose absolutely took that eagle out. It had its way with that eagle.
Grizz (02:00)
Have you seen the video of that bald eagle inside the ocean and those kayak people had to save it? Because it was trying to fly in the ocean and it's sad. It actually happened in Canada so that bald eagle was not even like a full-blooded freedom eagle. Yeah, it's sad.
Ice Bear (02:09)
No, I can't say I have.
Hmm,
sounds a little fishy to me. A little convenient that you'd have an excuse lined up already for that.
Grizz (02:28)
true. Look, all I'm saying is that he went from Texas. But.
Ice Bear (02:35)
I'll have you know,
my name is the most Texan name of all the Texan names.
Grizz (02:39)
That is true, you have your own county.
Ice Bear (02:42)
I have a county. In my old job, every Texan that ever talked to me said, strong Texan name. Big freedom.
Grizz (02:44)
It's also awesome.
which is beautiful
but also it's also at it's also you know Austin it is a cool spot though Texas light but it's nice though Austin is fun to go to anyways so it's been a decade we haven't we've been a long way from a long time and wildly people still download the old podcast so that's cool thank you for that the random people in Sri Lanka
Ice Bear (02:56)
fair.
Texas light Texas light
Thank you, random guy in Czechoslovakia.
Grizz (03:20)
But now we're older, we're alcoholics, and now we drink a lot more beer.
Ice Bear (03:26)
It's true and we just wanted to bring everyone else along for the ride.
Grizz (03:38)
a bear down bears, I don't even know what we would call it.
Ice Bear (03:45)
bear shenanigans.
Grizz (03:46)
Yeah, we're bear down a whole for. See, Denizens is such a good name, we're going to into that later, but yeah, so now we're just going to do to be to be, which is two bears, two beers. And you'll see our slow descent into alcoholism.
Ice Bear (03:48)
A romp, a rumpus for the denizens.
Mm-hmm. And you know, I figured by episode three, you know, you just, it should be exponential. So like 2B, 8B. Fine. Be responsible.
Grizz (04:12)
or 3B, I think today's gonna be a 3B.
Beautiful. Now
we're just giving all our buddies, all our friends and denizens, we're making it a thing. Excuses to drink with us. So with that being said, let's just just jump right in. So so I's papa, why don't you why don't you christen this new podcast with a with a nice crack of a nice brew?
Ice Bear (04:26)
Mm-hmm. I like it.
Crack one open.
I'd be happy to.
Grizz (04:44)
You gotta do it ASMR-like.
That was actually a really good crack. Yeah.
Ice Bear (04:49)
Sounded good on my end, All right, let's
get a little pour involved here. Ooh. It's gonna overflow. The mic's gonna just explode. Okay, all right, we'll get better at that as time goes on. That was a real rough pour. That was bad. It's all hit on that one. And it's all over the old hoodie.
Grizz (05:05)
I was like, what the?
That was
like the, think something, I think something's gonna come. It's a peener guy.
Ice Bear (05:12)
All
right, so number one for me is called Carmageddon. It is a double Epa, 8.1 handcrafted strong brewski from here in Maple land in Etobicoke, Ontario.
Grizz (05:33)
What percentage are we talking?
Ice Bear (05:33)
what you got down there for
we're talking eight point one
Grizz (05:39)
Alright, that's a good one. You already said that and I didn't hear you. Because I was thinking about mine already so rudely. Because I'm coming in strong. I'm coming in strong with an old favorite of mine. It's good here in the good old Freedom Lane to Texas we got.
Ice Bear (05:59)
that looks like a Martin house to me.
Grizz (06:01)
is in fact a Martin house. So I will show a good video of
of this, is going to be the last Gemini. It's a whiskey barrel aged pomegranate sour. Martin House is slowly converting me into a sour enjoyer. I used to fucking hate them.
Ice Bear (06:24)
was going to say you're
slowly being turned over to my side of the spectrum.
Grizz (06:29)
I used to hate
them, now like Martin House is turning me. It's a barrel, so it's from the barrel age series. This content is a 10.5, right? 10.5 alcohol content. It's a 100 % unblended. The last Gemini is an Imperial sour with pomegranates, aged seven months in fresh whiskey barrels. It was brewed a year ago, February 19th, 2024.
And the art is fucking amazing. It's like a pastel.
Ice Bear (07:03)
And this is one of those things where we need to be sure to, like you said, we'll do some videos, get up close artwork shots, because some can art is just topped here.
Grizz (07:09)
Yeah, because it's one with the box.
Yeah, it's one with the box too. So it's fucking great. So we'll definitely have it. So let's get my pouring ready.
Ice Bear (07:15)
Anything with the box is fantastic. Collectible.
such a pleasant sound.
Grizz (07:27)
sprayed me in the eye.
Ice Bear (07:29)
Yep, we'll get better at it. Take one. Or we'll get worse at it. Either way, it's fine.
Grizz (07:37)
getting good pouring action there.
Ice Bear (07:40)
yeah. And yours is not overflowing and spilling onto the microphone, so good job.
Grizz (07:48)
shot me in the face in the eye I feel like a cheap never mind
Ice Bear (07:55)
already lost the people episode one 10 minutes in deeply offensive and what are your thoughts on a israel and palestine get into that right away
Grizz (07:58)
you
I'm saying it is. kidding.
Ice Bear (08:09)
Just hot button issues nonstop right off the get-go. Let's lose half the people immediately.
Grizz (08:10)
You
And then when then after 10 seconds we take a pause and then I'll take the exact other stance and lose the other half
i can't find a way to lose everybody
Ice Bear (08:25)
Play both sides all the time.
Grizz (08:30)
isn't that what we learned from Mac? dude this smells fucking amazing look at this
Ice Bear (08:32)
Hmm.
It looks scrumdiddlyumptious.
Grizz (08:39)
watering so Cheers
Ice Bear (08:42)
Clinky clinky.
That's a brew skill, right?
Grizz (08:55)
That's on, bitch. That good.
Ice Bear (08:57)
That is quite good. Yeah, no, this is also, this is also excellent. So this is the one I don't know if you remember. Many moons ago, I tried one from this brewery. They had like a very aggressive octopus on it. So this is that that company. Not only do they do aggressive octopi, they do devil hands holding a hopper, you know.
Grizz (09:15)
is.
Is that the one the Is that the gold one or is that a different one? Do you remember that one? That's like a gold nautical theme can and she did like one time ago
Ice Bear (09:34)
No, that one was also excellent. This is okay. So for the people, I'm sorry, you're like three years late to the party on this. So we're going to be referencing a lot of beers that we've had a long time ago. So at some point, should we should probably just redo them. So I think like each episode will obviously feature, you know, we'll do pictures and videos of the two that we tried with ratings.
Grizz (09:48)
Which is actually true, yeah.
Yeah.
can put them
on our Instagram to do all the other shit. But you know what we should do, because I looking at Untapped, is that they do have like, I don't know you call them, not playlists, but like beer playlists, I don't know what the fuck you call them, but like beer groups where you can like do things. So you can put beers in a specific thing. We should do it for like episodes, like, you know what I mean? And so we'll do that so we can put our ratings there and everything like that. That'd be pretty nice.
Ice Bear (10:03)
Yeah.
Yes, 100%.
Yeah, that's a good
idea. That's a good idea. So I guess it's time to get to our first sponsor. Thank you, Budweiser. Didn't expect you to jump in this early, but we appreciate it. So go out there and drink it, I guess.
Grizz (10:29)
We just have to redo everything.
what's Budweiser's thing? Because you deserve what every man... no, that's Budweiser. Do you say Budweiser or Bud Light? I'm thinking of my old... Sorry. I'm thinking of my old pappy because he only drank Bud Light and Bush. yeah, of what... Yeah, because what... you deserve what every individual should enjoy regularly, right? That's what they say for Budweiser is. Yeah.
Ice Bear (10:47)
I said Budweiser, but it's fine.
And that can be it too.
seems right.
Maybe. I wouldn't want to drink it. Which, I mean, no, I would because it's sponsor. It's an official sponsor.
Grizz (11:09)
So here's the thing.
So Budweiser and Bud Light get the thing because it's piss water and everything like that. But our weebasses and everything else also love drinking Asian beers, like Japanese beers, which are also rice lagers like them. And they're not as better. There's some that are better. But they're not that far off.
Ice Bear (11:36)
Sapporo's just got a really good can.
Grizz (11:38)
So the whole cans are fucking good. Did I show you the year of the snake can? Oh shit, I fucked up. It was a beautiful can. There's still some more. I'll bring some.
Ice Bear (11:42)
No.
If
you see it in the wild, send me a picture of it.
Grizz (11:54)
pretty nice.
Ice Bear (11:55)
You know, one of the most disappointing parts about learning hiragana and katakana is just realizing the stuff written on those cans is basically English.
Grizz (12:08)
as it is written as it is English or like.
Ice Bear (12:11)
So like one of the things like, I can't remember which one it is. I think it's a sahi. Like in the katakana, just says like super dry. Like it's super dry. in my head, I always wanted it to be like fucking shinobi in the moon, like something cool. But no, it's just super dry. That's it.
Grizz (12:30)
well isn't
that the thing like like there's a lot of that shit now like with like McDonald's and like strawberry and like just other like random things that like it's just like yeah yeah but like saying what it is in English yeah so it's you know I get it this is fucking absolutely amazing
Ice Bear (12:42)
Yep, just saying what it is.
Grizz (12:55)
And like this actually, so a callback to one that happened a long time ago, which is we've actually to get, before we get into it, we actually talked about doing this podcast for like over a year now. And the thing is that we just did it without recording anything.
Ice Bear (13:08)
It's a long time coming.
so much wasted content.
Grizz (13:19)
You
But just saying that, I started my journey into sours really liking the one that kind of turned me was that black cherry or black raspberry sour, the Martin house with the fucking Ravens on it. Yeah, the beautiful one.
Ice Bear (13:37)
The Blackberry one with the Raven is fantastic.
Like I was jealous of it from 3000 miles away.
Grizz (13:45)
This one right here may be better, honestly. Like, I'm telling you, like...
Ice Bear (13:49)
You shut your whore mouth.
Grizz (13:55)
So we normally like doing the 16 ounce cans, right? The 16 ounce craft cans. But for extra credit, any time I can't find those, I'll do two 12 ounce cans. So because it equals one, basically.
Ice Bear (14:03)
correct.
Yep, fair.
That's not good math, but I agree with you.
Grizz (14:17)
beer math so I've already finished this enough to pour finish pouring the second one in here and it's a ten and a half percent and it's that easy to drink I'm telling you it's it's
Ice Bear (14:25)
perfect.
It's a good start. it
really good or are we being victims of the moment? Is this another time when we're just excited to be here? We're just happy to get the show on the road and it tastes better than it actually is? Or are they really this good?
Grizz (14:48)
that's good. Actually, OK. So you know how I feel about mine. To answer that question, how was yours?
Ice Bear (14:55)
Pretty damn good.
No, it's quite good. I think I would like this regardless, but I often wonder a lot of the times, I think the one that we do second, or especially on the events where we do three, how much of those are getting a bump from coming into it with a buzz?
Grizz (15:14)
That's true, that's true, especially when you start off with the stronger one.
Ice Bear (15:18)
Yeah, because if you're number one, like first sip, like, this is A territory. And so we should specify, we generally grade these on a collegiate scale, F through A, with the occasional rare S tier that sneaks through.
Grizz (15:34)
And the way we judge it is if they can, how much reps they can do with 225 on bench, flat bench. Exactly. This beer right here, it's a fucking robot wanderer. This dude's the least in A. This guy's getting at least 30 reps. At least.
Ice Bear (15:41)
How else would you judge it? Okay.
here.
you know by that logic this would actually be really rough like look at those wrists they're ready to they're ready to break right now i don't think
Grizz (16:04)
That's also the devil.
It's like a call back to, you know, rest in peace, Trevor. Trevor Moore. you know, you look, he's like, you look super cool. You look like the devil. Like, I think the devil in that devil hand can hold a gun, smoke a cigarette with sunglasses as a toddler. I'm sure that you can get at least 40.
Ice Bear (16:31)
I can't believe 16 minutes in and we've already got MK Ultra on tap. We miss you, Trevor. Sorry, Trevor.
Grizz (16:37)
Is it though? I don't think a lot of people
know about MKUltra Trevor Moore.
Ice Bear (16:44)
I don't know. No, it's too soon. Let's make them commit a bit more before we get into that.
Grizz (16:48)
See you
fair. is a lost gem.
saying is on Valentine what happened to Trevor still alive
Although he was born after, although he was born after, it started because he wasn't here in the world. And then it slowed down when he was here. And then he was gone. then look what happened now. October 7th.
Ice Bear (17:11)
It's tough to argue with that logic. It really is.
So totally unrelated.
And my apologies for cutting you off. I'm realizing my old staple, which I'm sure people are familiar with, which is lurking for 20 to 30 minutes was saying nothing. And then just getting one subtle joke. It's going to be very hard with just the two of us.
Grizz (17:36)
That's actually true. I'm not going to lie. One
worry that I've had going into this is like, right. Well, was like there was quips. There was things. was some that. But our wayward brother, he was like the filler in there. Not in a negative way, but that dude could yap in the best way as possible.
Ice Bear (17:43)
Can I make him talk?
Took up a lot of space.
Grizz (18:02)
And so now we're out here in the wilderness all on our own. The polar caps melted. You found yourself out here in Alaska. It's true. So that's one thing that I was also worried about a little bit. I'm not going to lie. But I think we're doing pretty good. managed to, you know, we got to go. Trevor will protect us.
Ice Bear (18:02)
lot of yam.
It's scary, naked and afraid.
It's fine. It'll be okay.
Trevor
will protect us. I think the main thing is there's two key advantages with this setup. Both of them are beer. But also, you have those as the crutch. Like if there's ever a lull, you can talk about the experience of whatever beer you're having. And because of the regularity, which by the way, I think we're planning to do weekly. Yeah.
Grizz (18:42)
Yep, two beers.
At least wiggly,
Ice Bear (18:57)
at least weekly,
maybe more people like it. You get topical things, know, if anything crazy is going on in the world, we can easily jump into that and give our two cents or five cents or a whole dime if people are feeling frisky.
Grizz (19:06)
True.
You got that. And there's also just some things that I do want to talk about in general. Nothing actually major. It's just shit. You see some shit on social media. And it's like, I can't be that out of touch. And it's a good way to of judge that. And then if we ever fall into the lulls, we can also talk how our spouses abuse us.
Ice Bear (19:31)
Yep, that's true.
I don't know what you're talking about. Mine has never done that.
Grizz (19:42)
Mine is glaring at me, but she is an angel too. Mine's just a glaring angel.
Ice Bear (19:43)
She's an angel.
Grizz (19:50)
I feel all the love.
Ice Bear (19:51)
I
can't believe you already got yourself grounded. You full-blown dingus.
Grizz (19:55)
I'm not grounded. always, I
didn't get myself grounded. I've always been grounded.
Ice Bear (20:00)
You've never not been grounded. You stay in the bear house.
Grizz (20:02)
She's agreeing yes, so
I am a bear house. Built like a brick shithouse, isn't that the word?
Ice Bear (20:13)
You know what could be fun as a special? Actually doing, yes.
Grizz (20:20)
to be to be plus two
dude you know what
A 2b2b plus 2 like a legit one will be nice.
Ice Bear (20:31)
Hold on, the problem with this is, what if the people like them more than us? Yeah, it is gonna happen. Fuck. That's fair. I can't even judge them.
Grizz (20:37)
they like them more than us. It's going to happen. They're better looking than us. We're ugly.
Neither can I. I like her more than I like myself.
Ice Bear (20:49)
Just like, yeah, I agree. I guess, trade us out. Do the old swap.
Grizz (21:01)
but here's the thing though, we kind of win just because of the easy simplicity of 2b2b. Because with them, it's 1t1s1b1thc. It's a hard thing to say. It doesn't flow off the tongue.
Ice Bear (21:17)
It does not
roll off the tongue well. There's a lot going on there. That's a trickier acronym for sure.
Grizz (21:25)
Yeah, like that's how we win we win by being simpletons
Ice Bear (21:28)
Mm-hmm.
Sometimes you just gotta dumb it down.
Grizz (21:34)
what we're best at. Now going on the notes let's talk about this because I'm about finished with my first one and I need to talk about it before I've actually finished it so let's do that and then shit there's a whole thing about about the beer okay hold on
Ice Bear (21:53)
that that's a good idea
Grizz (21:59)
That's what I get for not reading. So the Last Gemini is a whiskey barrel-aged pomegranate sour. About this beer, a while back we released a pomegranate sour called Reverie. Great name.
That's where that guy fought the bear.
Then we up the ABV and released an Imperial pomegranate sour called the first Gemini. This one, the last Gemini, is the final evolution of that series. This version is a 10.5 sour brewed with pomegranate puree and concentrate. We aged it in whiskey barrels for seven months. The result is another amazing fruited sour. We kept it simple and didn't add any lactose, which I fucking really like, as much like as I like some of the other sours that
That mochi one with lactose is like it's good, like it's it isn't it's not easy to drink like. Correct.
Ice Bear (22:54)
so you like that it does not have it.
Okay, yeah, that makes sense.
Grizz (23:00)
like us or other fruits the pomegranate shines on this one, which is it really does the pot. It's very pomegranate forward. Like I feel like I'm, you know, that Palm drink where it has like the bulbous bottle. Like I feel like I'm drinking. Yeah. Which I feel like I'm drinking that or like just fucking, cause they also had like the aerials, like the, just the arrows of pomegranate in cups. I feel like I'm just fucking whiffing up that while I'm drinking this. It's pretty fucking great.
Ice Bear (23:11)
Yes, great packaging.
Grizz (23:28)
So say, fans of Martin House Hours. Going to love it. Notes from our artist. After the body of the caster. shit. OK, cool. So I kind of forget this. So Martin House is great because their beers are fucking amazing, but their art's even better. And what they do is every single main release, they have an actual art box that comes with two 12 ounce cans.
Ice Bear (23:56)
Mm-hmm.
Grizz (23:57)
So on the box, actually have a note from the artist talking about the art. So it's after the body of Castor deteriorated.
Pollux went out on his own. I was trying to figure out what it might be doing and I figured it probably just went on to completing the objectives. In Reverie, mysterious hooded figure with the flag is staking out these large towers on an unknown planet. We see them again in the first Gemini, but that's the last we see of them. Now we see one closer. Pollux, who we've seen a lot over the years, now approaches one of the few monoliths and we see that it looks dot dot dot.
weird. Not only was it made intelligent, it also looks like some sort of robotic creature is somehow fused with it. Slash Donnie. Well Donnie, it does look like that. And the art's beautiful.
Ice Bear (24:56)
Okay, I have I have a lot less to bring to the table with the description on this one, because all my can has to say is, you know what brings good karma? All the hops. That's it. That's all I got. That's all I got to tell you. Let's see. Let's let's let's get into the flavor profile, shall we? That's what we could do. It is definitely.
Grizz (25:10)
It's true though. It's true though.
Ice Bear (25:27)
You know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna pop on untapped and see what these little rascals say about it. Cause sometimes that helps me pinpoint. Cause a lot of times there's flavors that I can't figure out what I'm tasting. And then I look at the untapped and I'm like, that's what that is. All right. Like pine tar. And sure enough, you want to guess what the second thing on the flavor profile is? Piney.
Grizz (25:39)
like pintar.
like pine tar.
You're a sucker for pine tar. That's the one thing.
Ice Bear (25:53)
I do like pine. I'm
surrounded by trees all day. I'm one with them. I commune with the pine.
Grizz (26:00)
I love pine trees, but... Ol' Gray's got an allergy to them.
Ice Bear (26:07)
You're allergic to pine trees?
Grizz (26:09)
Apparently, I don't know if I believe it yet honestly because apparently I'm also allergic to stone fruit and that
Ice Bear (26:14)
Hold on.
How? Well, then again, I guess Dallas doesn't have a ton of pine trees,
Grizz (26:23)
There are some in East Texas. You have the Pine Belt going by the Sam Houston National Park or State Park. don't know the fuck of this. But a government park. Pass that on. You have a lot of pine trees. And it's one of those where I go into there. Because I go camping by Conroe Lake. don't know if it's a pretty cool place. it's outside of Houston.
Ice Bear (26:31)
Okay.
Grizz (26:51)
I'm driving in there and the pines covering my boots and shit. I'm like sneezing and dying But after like a day or two in there, I'm good But just the initial like going to there and just being I'm fucking dying
Ice Bear (27:07)
Hmm, that's deeply upsetting. You're gonna die if you ever come visit here.
Grizz (27:11)
Yeah.
Wish I will and it's fine though. It'll only be like a day or two and I'll be good. Like it's good to solve bumps.
Ice Bear (27:18)
because
like the entire back edge of our property line is nothing but pine trees. There's got to be a hundred of them back there.
Grizz (27:25)
All I got to do is just frolic there forcefully for like exactly just overwhelm my immune system until it has to submit and capitulate.
Ice Bear (27:28)
Just embrace them. Just be one with them.
Or,
or you do the trick that I learned recently, and you just know I'll give you a spoonful of local honey, and you'll be immune to allergies.
Grizz (27:40)
Eat pine.
That's just dope.
I did that when I came to Dallas, and it worked.
Ice Bear (27:50)
It really does work. Which brings us to our second sponsor, Local Honey. Whoever your local honey manufacturer is, go to that apiary. Is that what it is? Apiary? Apiary? Who are the bee melkers? Api-apiest. Api-ists?
Grizz (28:03)
All I know is they milk bees.
That's a funny way to say B-rapists.
Ice Bear (28:13)
I really hope whoever the random guy in, what's the most random country we've had a download from?
Grizz (28:20)
Ooh, actually, look, we're going to take a non-intermission intermission on the camera thing. And I'm going to go look that up because there's some wild ones, honestly.
Ice Bear (28:28)
Yeah, I'd be very curious and I would like to think whoever that person is, they're just very knowledgeable about bees and they're just going to be like, fuck these guys. I don't want to listen anymore.
Grizz (28:35)
there be.
today we just like just looking today we had a couple we had two more downloads I have no idea what I don't know we do yeah we had two downloads weird let's see these two were from actually okay they're skipping that all right going back to stats so downloads all right
Ice Bear (28:44)
Why?
been six years.
Alright, where are they from? Marocca?
Grizz (29:12)
Locations, there we go, all right. To be fair, 90 % are North America. OK, the last five days, 90 % was North America.
Ice Bear (29:22)
That means 10 % worth though.
Grizz (29:24)
Yeah, 3 % South America. All right, let's see all countries. All right, let's do that.
Okay, so we had So this is just the last episode we had. 75 % was in the US, 10 % in Canada, and then it goes down to 1%, which is like, even though the ones after the say zero, they're still minimal downloads, but not enough to affect a large, right? So we have a couple percent, 1 % Mexico, Belgium, Australia, and Germany.
Ice Bear (30:02)
Thanks, Germany.
Grizz (30:03)
Right?
Then it goes down to 0 % because it's like nominal downloads, but there's downloads on the less, which is probably a little weirder. Chili, Peru, Denmark, Netherlands, Argentina, Malaysia, Turkey, Colombia.
Ice Bear (30:12)
There's a single digit download.
Okay, sorry, I need to understand something. Is there any chance that this is picking up like someone running a VPN?
Grizz (30:33)
You know, maybe, I don't know, man, but like all those Bing VPNs, maybe it's just like random ass people trying to understand English.
Ice Bear (30:42)
Can you imagine if we're the reason that some random Chilean lad is learning English? I hope it's that. That fills me with so much joy.
Grizz (30:49)
That would be great, because then they're going to
talk about random ass bear stuff. Like, it's not weird. We're ruining people. They're not going to get visas.
Ice Bear (30:57)
They're taking a
trip to New York. They're like, the Big Apple, finally, battle ropes. I can talk about them.
Grizz (31:08)
Some of the stuff I can't even print out. OK. I'm just going down to the lowest amount of download.
Ice Bear (31:15)
Okay, please tell me the ones you
can't pronounce because I want to figure out if I can guess what you're saying.
Grizz (31:20)
All right, so this is one download from Merrill Becky, East Flanders Province. Don't know what the fuck that is.
Ice Bear (31:30)
yes meryl becky of course
Grizz (31:33)
We got Dnipro, D-I-N-I-P-R-O, Dnipro Przyszkowsk Oblast. Don't know what the fuck that is either. We got a download from there.
Ice Bear (31:44)
feel like the computer's just having a stroke. These can't be real places. If they are, sorry to whoever's listening.
Grizz (31:50)
Brenna, Lima region, that's definitely South America. I know that because of mortal technique, you know. Shout out to my favorite communist. But Holly quotation Sally end quotation or parentheses, Saxony on halt. I don't know what the fuck that is.
Katanning, Western Australia, Los Angeles, B-O-B-O, not California, apparently. Shaw, Shaw, Washington is in there with all these random things, but just Shaw, Washington.
Buenaventura Lakes, Florida. Never heard of that, but I heard of Florida. St. Thomas Mountain, Tamil Nadu. Manhattan, New York. There's somebody that's very, very well off that's waste of their time listening to our poor asses.
Ice Bear (32:46)
I like to think
that there's just a Wall Street trader. This is how he gets hype. He's just like, I need to listen to two vaguely entertaining drunks.
Grizz (32:52)
So.
that's right before he just sniffs a bunch of coke off of a woman and then does day trading and then right after Manhattan New York we got Brzenko Lesser Poland, Reservoir Victoria, Adelaide South Australia, Istanbul, Centennial Colorado, St. Augustine Quebec, got a Quebec guy there
Ice Bear (33:04)
naturally.
Hello, hey.
Grizz (33:29)
uh Magali City Metro Manila. What's it gonna? Ritten Georgia.
yet it just goes on like it's what gets fucking wild we have a cock here too singapore maynard texas real ground and not there lima new york like it's it's kinda crazy honestly so i'll take it
Ice Bear (33:47)
That's amazing. What time is it there?
Thanks for your support people. I don't know what you're thinking, but we appreciate you.
Grizz (34:04)
Especially because like we haven't made an episode in like six years seven years Like when you think about that, that's fucking weird
Ice Bear (34:11)
It would really, can you imagine like the first one that we do with this whenever we publish it or whatever you call it. It's just like Shaw Washington, like immediately like he's just been ready. Whoever it is, just thank God they're back. This is the moment I've been waiting for.
Grizz (34:18)
I was going right up.
waiting.
You know, I gotta be thankful for them, it is weird.
Ice Bear (34:38)
You're beautiful weirdos. appreciate you. All right. Hold on. I told you and I meant it. I'm going to keep this on track. We're going to keep it on the rails. Our 30 minute alarm has gone off and it's time to get a brew number two.
Grizz (34:40)
All right.
Thanks.
Ice Bear (35:04)
All right. Let's go grab it.
Grizz (35:07)
this reminds me of like
hot rod the cool bean segment hot rod you know i i i saw a so real quick so tiger my spouse my beautiful lovely spouse she's going at me now she has not watched a lot of she watched a lot of rush hour but not a lot of right and yeah
Ice Bear (35:28)
You
Grizz (35:34)
So I've been showing her a lot of the old movies that I've grown to love. And I've had my heart broken handful of times because movies that I fucking, sorry, movies that I fucking loved, genuinely loved and thought were hilarious. I go show her and she's like, do we, and then she watches it, whatever. And then a couple of days later, I tried to talk about it and she's like, huh, what? Did we see that?
Ice Bear (36:01)
You
Grizz (36:05)
We don't and then say I'm sorry. It just wasn't memorable to me and I'm like this just shaped my fucking childhood like it This thing was like a big part of me and I you know and it's it and it feels like a dagger in the heart
Ice Bear (36:20)
what was the toughest bill to swallow so far?
Grizz (36:22)
My cousin Vinny.
Ice Bear (36:25)
Yeah, that would be rough.
Grizz (36:26)
And you know the hardest thing about my cousin Vinnie is that I fucking love that movie ever since I was a kid, right? Yeah. Great thing. Joe Pesci amazing. Most 90s kids first crush like a lot of not Joe Pesci, but you know, yeah. Yeah. So that, but then you show the Valiant seal.
Ice Bear (36:31)
as you should.
Nope, Joe Pesci. No one knows Marisa Tomei. It's Joe Pesci you're talking about.
Grizz (36:55)
the same said movie after my heart was broken. She remembered it because Marissa Tomei.
Ice Bear (36:57)
She loved Marisa Tomei.
Yes, she was fully on board because now to be fair, I think had Marisa Tomei not been in that movie, I don't know if she would have enjoyed it as much.
Grizz (37:13)
That is fair though, because she makes the movie, especially when she's on trial.
Ice Bear (37:18)
Fantastic.
Grizz (37:21)
She's fucking right.
Ice Bear (37:24)
Cause you know what? I was about to tattle on the end of the movie and I thought better of it. I was about to give away the spoiler Rooney, but you never know. Look, these, the Utes, they might not know about it yet. They might be giving it their first gander.
Grizz (37:25)
The movie's great.
you're... Because you're going to spoil a 30-year-old movie.
That's actually very fair. It's worth it. Yeah.
Ice Bear (37:44)
So
you know what, dear listeners, denizens, you write us about your My Cousin Vinny moments and we'll confab about them.
Grizz (37:58)
Exactly, so my cousin Vinny was the number one but there has been a couple of others Trying to I'm trying to think of like which other ones now the one that we watched that she liked and she loved That warmed my heart because I love this movie because I think it's one of his best movies ever Was true lies
Ice Bear (38:19)
You think that's one of Arnie's best movies ever?
Grizz (38:22)
% at least top 5.
Ice Bear (38:26)
You're putting that top five for Arnie?
Grizz (38:29)
Name five Arnold Schwarzenegger movies better than True Lies. Predator is one of them, but okay.
Ice Bear (38:34)
Predator, Terminator,
Terminator 2, Jingle All the Way, and of course, good sir, Twins.
Grizz (38:48)
Okay, so here I would go, okay. I would go Predator up there, Jingle all the ways up there, Terminator 2, not 1, because Terminator 1 sucks for Arnie. Terminator 2 is fucking great for Arnie. Yeah, but not for Arnie? I don't know about that. It's not, yeah, Terminator 1 is not an Arnie movie. Terminator 1 is...
Ice Bear (39:07)
No, it wasn't good for Arnie, but he was in it and it's still a great movie.
Grizz (39:16)
Not an Arnie movie. So Terminator 2, Predator, Jingle All the Way. Ooh, you know what? shit. I will put, because the ones where I'm like, so Predator, Terminator 2, Jingle All the Way.
Ice Bear (39:34)
We're also forgetting about Kindergarten Cop.
Grizz (39:36)
I was about to say kindergarten cop and twins, but I would put true lies right above twins.
Ice Bear (39:45)
What about Total Recall? my God, I'm so mad at myself. You know what I forgot about that is clearly in the top five? Batman and Rob.
Grizz (39:53)
Yeah.
Shit he was fucking me Yeah, he was fuck. Okay, but okay to be fair. Was that one of his best things like We both I I genuinely forgot he was mr. Freese. Can you say that was one of his best movies? really
Ice Bear (39:58)
Monsieur Freeze.
Well, for the point of me arguing right now, yeah I will. But no, can I honestly? No.
Grizz (40:18)
Yeah, what 1000 %
now? I think I think any I think if somebody said jingle all the ways better than True lies. I'm like, alright debatable, but okay fair kindergarten cop Alright fair Terminator 2 no fucking duh predator. No fucking duh but like Yeah, I don't know much best like Come on, gotta think peak 90s action comedy fucking Jamie Lee Curtis like
It's a fucking solid movie.
Okay, second beer. Beer number two, let's go.
Ice Bear (40:57)
I think it's time for beer number two.
All right, let's go.
Grizz (41:06)
my god, you gotta take your headphones off?
We're having a brief intermission.
You were on an intermission.
Ice Bear (41:45)
All right. We're back.
Grizz (41:46)
All
right.
Ice Bear (41:49)
What are you having a chuckle at over there?
Grizz (41:52)
So as soon as we're going to have a brief intermission, the tiger jumped in and started doing this. it was fucking hilarious because she's way more wiggly than I am. So it was phenomenal.
Ice Bear (42:07)
What you got for number two? I'm very excited for number two. This is the one I was telling you about earlier today.
Grizz (42:14)
so she actually did like a perfect humor like the Bellsprout meme the Bellsprout dancing meme I'm talking about she did that fucking perfectly
Ice Bear (42:18)
Yes, yes I do.
Well, well done. That's hard to accomplish.
Grizz (42:25)
Yeah, that's why I love her.
Ice Bear (42:30)
Good job. Good job.
Grizz (42:33)
Alright, so before I really interrupted you, this beer was the one that, hold on, let me pull back the script. Let me pull back the fucking thing. You said this beer was...
Let's see, this beer was.
Fun Brews acquired for inauguration. I was like, yeah. Then you said, one of which I almost roared with glee for.
Ice Bear (43:05)
It's true. I did.
Grizz (43:07)
And then you said it's going to bring all the bears to the yard. So if our viewers aren't filled with anticipation.
Ice Bear (43:10)
true. did.
anticipation. Whoa,
we have failed miserably. We need to give grades for the first ones.
Grizz (43:21)
Oh, shit. OK, I totally forgot. All right. OK, it's beyond trying. OK. You're Carmageddon. What we talking here?
Ice Bear (43:23)
be on track. Let's keep it tight.
Carmageddon, I can safely say Carmageddon first beer of episode one is a B plus, very good. Very good, would gladly have it again if it was on tap, I would be thrilled. It's not the best thing in the world.
Grizz (43:39)
So
So is B plus a great score, a good score, or what?
Ice Bear (43:51)
So yeah, that's a good thing, because we've never really explained this yet. So for me, when I am grading, a C is something that I would drink, I would not be disappointed by. So anything B and above is good. Like I'm happy about it, I would pay money for it, and I would not be disappointed. When you start to creep into the A's, that's where I'm like seeking it out. Like I'm looking for it.
And then the rare rarest here is where, like, I'm not only am I seeking it out, but I'm getting a second one and I'm going to have anyone that is interested in the craft beer try it.
Grizz (44:32)
You're basically gonna be Tyrone Biggums.
Ice Bear (44:34)
Yes.
Grizz (44:37)
Red balls. Now, so yeah, so it's basically Cs. So beers we might give a C to that you might like. It just means that it's not really a beer. I will get it if it's there. I will not seek it out. But I don't hate it. And I don't particularly love it. But it's good. It's all right. It's not bad. So if we give a beer that you like that's a C grade, it's just not bad.
Ice Bear (45:06)
Yep, that's correct. It's not an indictment. It's just something that exists. Yep. What was your first one?
Grizz (45:12)
We're just telling you that you're wrong, but in a loving way. It's like a warm embrace.
So mine first. shit. First beer of I dropped my lighter and my flask. So first beer of episode one of to be to be the last Gemini. I will have to say and I'm it's hard. I will give it. I have to give it.
It has to be an A+. It has to be an A+. This is the best sour that I've had to date. It has dethroned the fucking delicious black raspberry, raven sour from Martin House.
Ice Bear (45:45)
Good. That's awesome.
That's impressive. And I think it speaks
highly to Martin House being fantastic.
Grizz (45:58)
Martin house legit changed me on towers because I always never liked them There was one tower before that from celestial beer works that I loved a couple years ago or like four or five years ago But other than that specific one, I never liked them Martin house changed me last Gemini a plus territory fucking phenomenal Anybody that likes ours needs to fucking have them
Ice Bear (46:21)
Perfect. Love it. All Do you want to introduce your second one first or do you want me to get right into it? Because I'm very excited for mine.
Grizz (46:31)
I think yours is going to be better than mine maybe so I'm going to I'll go first. This right here is a limited edition. This one right here was actually the Tigers when she was over here but she didn't drink it so now this is now going into the records of the first Tubi Tubi. This is from actually let me see where this
Ice Bear (46:35)
Do it.
Grizz (46:56)
So this right here is from, where the fuck is this brewery in? Yeah, OK, Texas. Brewed in Carrollton, Texas. All right. So this is right here really close to me. Love it. This is Symbol Brewing Company, all right? This right here is the Lunar Phase Hazy Double Epa.
Ice Bear (47:06)
Big Tex.
I like it. It's a nice can.
Grizz (47:23)
We got this
because like all Chinese New Year thing and kind of like we were on a rush hour binge during the swimming about these beers. So it felt perfectly because we were watching Rush Hour 2 right before we went to buy these beers and it was fucking great. So this one, shit, it's hard to read. Okay. Inspired by the rich traditions of Chinese New Year lunar phase, Chinese New Year, lunar phase is a bold and flavorful double EPA.
It's a bold and flavorful double lepa. This is fucking really hard to read because it's like thin white thin white letters on a very busy can. But.
Ice Bear (48:00)
I much
prefer to think this is where we find out that you have literacy issues in your mid-30s. It's just a very embarrassing way to discover it.
Grizz (48:08)
I do.
You know, I was on Hooked on Phonics when I was a kid. I really wasn't what my brother was. in passing, I had secondhand Hooked on Phonics. And you know what? It fucking helped. It did. He got reading way much better. And it had this little fucking map, like a Mario game. It had this little map.
Ice Bear (48:14)
you
Perfect. Hey, I it's the job done.
Grizz (48:33)
Whereas he completed phases, you would put stickers on it and fucking it was a really good incentive for him to fucking read more. It's pretty solid. Yeah, that was great. going back to it. OK, inspired by the rich traditions of Chinese New Year, Lunar Phase is a bold and flavorful double EPA highlighting the year of the snake.
Ice Bear (48:42)
Good rhythm.
Grizz (48:57)
Bursting with tropical fruit aromas, this beer showcases orange, tangerine, and lime notes. Lunar phase intakes for a truly enjoyable drinking experience, perfect for celebrating the Lunar New Year. There's a QR code for us to read more, but I'm not going to do that. This is an 8.5.
Ice Bear (49:24)
All right, now, we, think we have kind of agreed upon an hour being the sweet spot for these. We want to appreciate the people's time. So looking at our clock, we've got to chug. We've got to get to drinking on these. But I'm very excited to introduce mine.
Grizz (49:38)
It's minimal an hour.
Okay, hold on, gotta, hold on, hold on, I have
to, I have to mute the tiger.
Ice Bear (49:54)
Okay.
Okay.
Grizz (49:57)
OK, an hour is the best time. But if we go over, we go over. This is the first episode. We got to do what we got to do. So we're going to chug this one. And we kind of have to have a third one very quickly. And if you don't have a third one, I'm going to have a third one. Because at this point in time, in this point of the year, it needs to be had. And I need to have it before I'm out of the pack, because it's a thing. So.
We have to do quickly and now and that's fine or whatever we do, but there's going to be a three Because all right, okay So yeah, so, you know, we're gonna try to respect the time, but you know, it's the first episode. We got a we got to go big
Ice Bear (50:26)
All right. All right.
You're a mad man.
All right.
All right, you ready for this? Are you emotionally prepared?
Grizz (50:44)
to see this.
I am emotionally prepared.
Ice Bear (50:49)
Alright, if you had your last dime to gamble, what brewery do you think this is from?
Grizz (50:57)
flying flying monkeys
Ice Bear (51:00)
My
good man. It's almost like you know where it's going to be from. So we'll do a better picture of this, but this is from flying monkeys. This is.
Grizz (51:08)
So is Flying Monkeys
your Martin House or is it your Celestial Beer Works? Or Martin House? Okay.
Ice Bear (51:15)
It's Martin house.
It's Martin house mixed with. Hmm. It's Martin house. Yeah. So this is alien mastermind. This is a mango haze, triple EPA, 10.3%.
Grizz (51:23)
Mine has, yeah.
gonna love the art.
Ooh.
Ice Bear (51:38)
And luckily this one has a description, so this one is more interesting. It's everywhere.
glowing with quiet foreboding mango plasmic tendrils of the alien mastermind pulse across the cosmos with a stealthy 10.3 ABV intensity solar winds of lemony haze from the remote system of the Terpenswirl and dank matrix exotic fruit and a mesmerizing nucleus of brilliance friend or fiend the question remains unanswered I'm sure it's gonna be a friend because
Grizz (51:56)
Tense, tense, tense, tense, tense, tense,
Brilliant.
Ice Bear (52:14)
everything flying monkeys does is fantastic.
Grizz (52:18)
Really, really is. That orange cream
one that you had, like.
Ice Bear (52:22)
yeah, that was a good one. That was a very good one.
Grizz (52:24)
made
me genuinely jealous.
Ice Bear (52:26)
I'm going to give this a pour for you to view.
Grizz (52:32)
stimulate our eels. EELS.
the mic gotta put it next to the mic
Now we're cooking with fire, there we go.
Ice Bear (52:51)
It smells fantastic.
Well, I'll tell you what.
Hold on. Let's let's be fair. Let's give it to
Grizz (53:09)
Give it to.
Ice Bear (53:15)
the floor the floor is an a plus it's fantastic
Grizz (53:20)
God damn. Flying
Monkeys Never Fucking Misses. right. This symbol brewery. So funny thing about symbol brewery. Symbol brewery, guess, apparently is in Carrollton, Texas, which is, look, I fucking love Texas. I love Texas. But here's the thing. Blue Laws fucking suck. Carrollton, Texas is actually a dry county. Yeah, so it's a dry county. You can't buy any liquor. There.
Ice Bear (53:25)
They don't miss.
Grizz (53:50)
Which is funny because my main 2B2B supplier of all the craft beers is in Carrollton, Texas. Which is also where one of the biggest Asian markets is. every time the tiger comes, we go there too. So fantastic fucking craft beer store, but in a dry county. Just that. This beer is brewed in a dry county, so it's either going to be fucking amazing or terrible. But this is for the Chinese New Year. It looks great.
Ice Bear (53:50)
I don't like that.
Nice color.
Grizz (54:22)
Let's give this a try. Clink.
Ice Bear (54:22)
Clinky? Clinky clinky?
Grizz (54:35)
So bitch like good. I don't know of a territory, but it's definitely B. So far, floor is B. But it's good. It's a damn good beer.
Ice Bear (54:46)
Well, that's
good. in inaugural jaunt is a couple of good ones for both of us.
Grizz (54:52)
Which is great because our undocumented 2B2Bs, I had a good fucking three, four month stint where it was just dog shit.
Ice Bear (54:59)
Yeah, there were some rough stretches there.
And I think we're both victims of can art. Like I think both of us are attracted to just like, we're like, yeah, judge that book by its cover all day. And then they taste terrible.
Grizz (55:12)
We're just stupid and like shiny things. Anglerfish would fucking kill us. The anglerfish would kill us. Dude, do you remember a couple of weeks ago where there was all that fucking TikTok, Instagram stuff about the fucking anglerfish swimming up to the surface and they were making all the sadcore shit about it?
Ice Bear (55:17)
They're so shiny. It's not our fault. They're shiny.
I want to be part of this, but no, I don't know what you're talking about at all.
Grizz (55:38)
No? OK.
So me and the tiger were watching a bunch. And it was like, it got so bad where like me, the fucking sad boy that loves sad shit, was like rolling my eyes to it. Right? Because like, OK. So there was the video of a female anglerfish just swimming up to the shore. Right? And so granted, obviously, it's either like about to die, it's sick or something, because it's going up to the fucking surface.
Which is crazy. Angelfish are awesome. Anyways, so people were fucking making art about it and like doing the thing of like finally seeing this guy the first time before they die or finally seeing the the light of something beautiful before they fucking die. And it was like they're making all the sadcore shit about it. And it's all sentimental, which is like normally I love, but it was just so much of it. It was like, my God, a fucking court.
The tiger says it was art and yes it was art but like it got too much for even me the fucking as sad boy loving shit as I am I was like bro alright but like
It was pretty bad.
Maybe I'm just being a bitter old fuck. I don't know. But it got for a little bit. was like, my fucking.
Ice Bear (57:07)
You'll have to send it to me so I can be part of the loop.
Grizz (57:09)
I will most definitely
send it to you because like, yeah. I may just be being a curmudgeon, but I don't know. A bear-mudgeon. But it was like, It was, I felt I got to the too much territory.
Ice Bear (57:21)
bare mudging.
I think once per episode we should introduce a Denizen word. So obviously this week's is Denizen.
Grizz (57:47)
All right, the tiger's sending it to the group chat. So I'm sorry, I didn't hear anything you fucking said, so please repeat that again.
Ice Bear (57:49)
Okay, perfect.
I was saying, think once per week we should introduce a Denizen word for like Denizen vocabulary. So this week it's Denizen, obviously.
Grizz (58:03)
Denison's a good thing. Actually, who made Denison? I feel like it wasn't us. Was it you?
Ice Bear (58:09)
No, was me.
I mean, I'm sure someone else has said it, but like I came up with it. Yes.
Grizz (58:16)
Did you? OK.
Because I feel like it was the seal or the tiger. I don't know why. No, it was you? All right. I'm just trying to give the tiger or the seal extra credit, I guess.
Ice Bear (58:21)
No.
I mean, let's give it to them. Both. Like they were doing a workshop and it was them.
Grizz (58:33)
Yeah, and then they fed it to you subconsciously.
Ice Bear (58:36)
Yeah, but the reason I'm saying this is because like, I'm sure we're going to accidentally drop things like bernanigans and like to us, they're just words to a layman. They're they're not words. like it's it's it's a little bit of a language curve.
Grizz (58:53)
Yeah, that's actually fair, especially when it's like a grown-ass man drinking beer and having like, yeah, so fair. That's very fair.
Ice Bear (58:58)
Correct.
So yeah, anyway, this week's is Denizen, and that is those that are part of the tribe enjoying brewskis with us.
Grizz (59:10)
Because so the lore of the bear is that there used to be three. And we very, very closely were similar to the wee bear bear bears. And we adopted said titles because, yeah, like Grizz was brown, like burritos, anime girl pillows, and steak.
Ice Bear (59:38)
you
Grizz (59:38)
That's pretty fucking
close to what I am. Loved it. Great.
Ice bear was deadpan, white in color. Very, very good with an axe and in love with a seal.
Ice Bear (59:56)
all accurate. Can't deny any of it.
Grizz (59:59)
very close, almost scarily close to our good friend, Iceberg, here. And then we also had a panda who ran off into the bamboo woods and forests and somewhere.
Ice Bear (1:00:05)
Mm-hmm.
he's frolicking somewhere munching
on bamboo
Grizz (1:00:19)
Munching on bamboo, we've seen the videos on Instagram. Those guys are following down slides, nominating random things, having babies in zoos, and like falling down the whole sides because another panda pushes them. It's wild. So we didn't know what he's doing. So now we're here. Bears also love dens.
Ice Bear (1:00:32)
Mm-hmm.
Grizz (1:00:40)
So this is in fact a bear den, because we're drinking in the solace of our own homes. And y'all listening to us are citizens of the den.
Ice Bear (1:00:42)
Hmm.
Correct.
You are indeed.
Grizz (1:00:55)
And you're also on the internet, which is close to netizens. But we're not in China, so we don't call them netizens.
denizens. You are citizens of the den.
Ice Bear (1:01:11)
Which obviously we've got to make a hoodie with this on it,
Grizz (1:01:11)
Beautiful tan.
I yelled innocence. thought the seal and the tiger which is our perspective spouses created it, but it might have been the glorious ice bear. Either way.
Ice Bear (1:01:16)
Just Denizen with a cool bear face.
I'm gonna feel really
bad if it's not me. What if it's not? What if I'm just taking credit for something I didn't do?
Grizz (1:01:30)
I honestly
though like the more I talk about it. I think it's you
Ice Bear (1:01:35)
I'm gonna feel terrible if I'm taking credit for something I didn't do.
Grizz (1:01:39)
Like I don't know if we're retconning this, now I'm like, I'm pretty sure it's you now. Like I will go to work for this. I think it's you now.
Ice Bear (1:01:41)
You
I feel like it was me, but no, like, I'm...
Grizz (1:01:50)
Like if I gasped
at myself into thinking it was you because of what you said, like, I will fight for this.
Ice Bear (1:01:57)
I'm kind of going the opposite. Like I really felt strongly it was me that came up with it, but now I'm not confident at all.
Grizz (1:02:05)
We're looking for a Mel Gibson and Braveheart and you're falling out of that role and I need you to be back Mel Gibson I need you to yell freedom. All right, I need you to I Need you you don't want to But okay, but that 90s Mel Gibson you want to be that guy, okay like 2020 2020 Mel Gibson. I don't know about that. Maybe I don't know I haven't you know, he just a little crazy, but but I'm just saying
Ice Bear (1:02:15)
I don't wanna be Mel Gibson. He's not the guy I wanna be. Fair.
Grizz (1:02:34)
Brape Heart Mel Gibson everybody wants to be. It's a dying wish of fucking man. It's the thing of dying for your people. I don't know man, that's pretty dope. Just saying.
Ice Bear (1:02:45)
That is pretty good.
Pretty good.
That's looking pretty tasty. There's awful lot of that gone for something that's a B.
Grizz (1:03:01)
Here's the issue. It's a very, very good beer.
I don't enjoy it as much as the first one though. But that being said, it's a different type of beer.
And I have much more experience with IPAs, with EPAs and Hazys. I give this one a B because although this one's very, very, very good, I am enjoying it.
I do know what's better.
So I'm giving it a B because it's on a curve, because I have so much experience with hazies. But this one here, if anyone were to try this beer, they will not be disappointed unless they got shit taste.
What about yours though? I gave my floor of a BB+. What's your floor for that one right there?
Ice Bear (1:04:08)
Say that one more time.
the floor it's at this point the floor is floor is an A
Grizz (1:04:22)
Bam. Flying monkeys doesn't miss.
Ice Bear (1:04:23)
I'm teetering on A plus for this one. It's
very, very good.
Mm hmm. Yep. And the thing is, it's very mango forward. Like it's got a very, very strong like mango taste on the front. And then the aftertaste is also pleasant. So it's just it's it's an enjoyable for a 10.3. It's scary. Like I could easily like crush a pitcher of this.
Grizz (1:04:57)
So that's actually one thing too. We talk about, was it at the Plymonkeys Brewery or what were we talking about? Where like they started Plymonkeys on by the pitcher. Is it their brewery?
Ice Bear (1:05:08)
Yeah, so, and it's dirt cheap. Like it's comically inexpensive. So if you go there, it's like, I don't know, maybe 40 minutes from Toronto. So it's not far. You can get a picture of most of their current brews for under 25. Like a lot of them are like 15.
Grizz (1:05:35)
day yo.
Ice Bear (1:05:36)
So it's like you go in with a Powell for a hundred bucks and you're absolutely set.
Grizz (1:05:45)
That's one thing that I'm absolutely jealous for. Because even going to the breweries over here, you're going to have very, very fresh versions of said beer. But you don't get good deals like that.
Ice Bear (1:06:03)
Hmm. The other thing is I'm not even factoring in the exchange rate. Cause now that, yeah. So we're talking like 12.
Grizz (1:06:08)
That's actually fucking true. So you're talking about 15 bucks Canadian? So you mean like...
Yeah, so when we go there we're getting fucked.
Ice Bear (1:06:20)
That's correct.
Grizz (1:06:21)
I actually,
I actually don't know. Are we alone?
Ice Bear (1:06:26)
Yes. I think we would be allowed.
Grizz (1:06:28)
We're getting fu-
Right? think so. I think, I think, I look at that, my.
Ice Bear (1:06:38)
I think we get a... Atlas just wandering by. I wonder if his nails, because they're very loud here. I wonder if the mic's going to pick them up.
Grizz (1:06:41)
Look at that boy, he's...
I hear him slightly, but it's funny because it's like almost like he knows that you're recording so he's like trying to be slow. Yeah.
Ice Bear (1:06:56)
He's being very delicate. No, he just wants his
water. His bowl's right back there.
Grizz (1:07:01)
But, yeah, no, like, I think, I think they'll understand if we go out and have a whore-fin good time.
Ice Bear (1:07:12)
I also think... I think it's understood that whenever we get to reunite, there needs to be at least one one bernanagan outing. At least one.
Grizz (1:07:22)
Right? It has to be.
it only makes sense honestly especially if we're traversing
of miles I don't know if we can say thousands
Ice Bear (1:07:39)
thousands.
Grizz (1:07:42)
Is it how many thousands? Yeah, but is it thousands? Because for me, the California is like 1,300. Me to you is how much?
Ice Bear (1:07:42)
We're not that close.
I would bet,
I would bet as the crow flies, all right, let's, why would we, why would we guess when we have the power of the interweb? I would guess that we are, as the crow flies, 1500 miles apart. Let's find out, shall we? I'm gonna investigate.
Grizz (1:08:06)
15. All right. Yeah, I'm gonna go
Do I'm gonna go 12th?
Nah, ooh, yeah, I was gonna say 12. I don't think that's right, but I'm gonna go 12.
Ice Bear (1:08:24)
All right, Internet Web is searching.
Uno momento, por favor.
All right. You ready for this?
Grizz (1:08:47)
Let's do it. We're talking.
Ice Bear (1:08:49)
We are talking 1497.2 mLAS.
Grizz (1:08:56)
Damn, so you were fucking close as shit. Damn, you said 1,500, right? Man, you were like, you were so close. was less than my driving distance between me and my work.
Ice Bear (1:09:01)
Yes, I did.
my geography
knowledge gets more on point as I get more inebriated.
Grizz (1:09:18)
You are a tenured culture bear. You weren't here during Manifest Destiny, so... Makes sense.
Ice Bear (1:09:26)
you
I wonder what if we had in addition to the country and like the place that people were listening, I would love to know ages. I feel like it's gotta be mainly people around our age, but wouldn't that be great if there was just like a bunch of like 70 year olds that were enthralled with the bare nanigans?
Grizz (1:09:41)
He just...
I would fucking
I would fucking love seven year olds being part of our set. Let's see.
Ice Bear (1:09:56)
What would be better? A bunch of 70 year olds or just like a ton of like tweens?
Grizz (1:10:04)
Ooh. I feel like if it was tweens, we'd be negative influences.
Ice Bear (1:10:09)
That's a good point. Yeah, I don't like that at all. So let's hope for the seniors.
Grizz (1:10:15)
Yeah, I hope it's seniors. Let's see. Dynamic content.
Ice Bear (1:10:22)
Wait, where was it? Was it Chile? Where was the South American one? Peru?
Grizz (1:10:27)
Lima Peru was one and Chile was another one.
Ice Bear (1:10:29)
Lima Peru. So I hope I
hope there is like a Peruvian grandmother just like hanging on to every one of your words. And I hope she hates me. I hope she only wants to listen to you. Just like, fuck this guy, make him stop talking. I only want to hear that Texan Grizz.
Grizz (1:10:38)
You know?
Specifically that guy I
don't know man. I think people hate Texas more than they hate Canada
Ice Bear (1:10:53)
That's kind of Texas's fault. I do too. I do too. My name is Texan.
Grizz (1:10:58)
I fucking love Texas. You're talking to the wrong person.
it is very Texan. I'm putting it on the record. I don't want Canada to be the 51st state, but I'll take Alberta.
Ice Bear (1:11:06)
the
Grizz (1:11:18)
That's the Texas of the North. They're the frosty Texans.
Ice Bear (1:11:22)
That's a good I hope you know what I bet they would embrace that So somewhere out there someone is designing and like an Alberta like the outline of the province It says frosty Texan someone's doing it right now
Grizz (1:11:36)
I'd buy their merch. They're a damn sure.
Let's see. Can I find this? General info. I don't know if it does it by age. I know for a while they showed gender and obviously ours was a sausage fest.
I mean that in the most respectful way.
Ice Bear (1:12:11)
My favorite part about this is both of our wives are never gonna listen to one of these because they're probably like in the room as we're recording. You guys are idiots.
Grizz (1:12:19)
I I got fucking stupid.
But you know, think my will listen to it to make sure that I'm not saying anything fucking stupid. And then use it, whatever, against me to beat me into submission.
Ice Bear (1:12:43)
Such is life.
Grizz (1:12:47)
Yeah, I wonder if I do it online like like on an actual PC if I can get more info Yeah, cuz I do know they did show gender for a while They kind of show age but at least for right now North America Canada and South America are big but we got some Nordic listeners
And a couple of Japanese listeners in Okinawa, so I'm assuming they're Americans on... They're just Marines, more than likely. Yeah, just military rats in Okinawa eating some Coco's curry. Like, you know... You know... You know...
Ice Bear (1:13:12)
Yeah, they're just, they're just like, yeah, they're just military brats.
I could go for a career right now, that would be great.
Grizz (1:13:29)
They had opened a Cocos Curry in Honolulu or like in Hawaii and in LA and they were opening one over here in fucking Dallas in the general area and then they fucking put it on hold because of like Yeah And they put it on hold like years ago like because of the whole pandemic stuff And as far as I know it hasn't come back yet and I'm fucking dying inside We got a portilla. We got a portilla's from Chicago, which is also great
Ice Bear (1:13:53)
That's awful.
Grizz (1:13:59)
But it ain't nothing like a Coco's.
Ice Bear (1:14:01)
Now, Cocos
is really good.
Grizz (1:14:04)
And I was here fucking hyping Cocos up to like all my like normie friends that aren't fucking weebs that are like, know, don't know dick jack shit about Japan or like anything. And I'm hyping it up and then it gets put on hold. And I'm like, well, you got to just trust me on it. Terrible.
Ice Bear (1:14:26)
That's upsetting. That is very upsetting. So we prior to acquiring the brews for tonight's episode, we went to the Asian market and I'm so excited for food for like the next week. Many, many, many, many a delicious noodle. got the we got the rolled beef. We got the.
Grizz (1:14:47)
Let's hear it. Ooh.
Ice Bear (1:14:54)
What else did we get here?
What sorts of food did we get at the Asian market?
I am in many a bulldock. yeah, we got the enoki mushrooms. she got bamboo shoots.
Grizz (1:15:10)
fucking lot like the dried ones that you have
delicious
So at my local H Mart with a tiger, we stocked up. And I got, you know, cause like.
Anybody does anybody loves Bulldog
Ice Bear (1:15:30)
Mm-hmm.
Grizz (1:15:32)
Especially once they came out with the fucking carbonara Bulldog knows right? so They came out with their Bulldog frozen tteokbokki
Ice Bear (1:15:35)
That's one of the best. they're so good.
Grizz (1:15:47)
And it has like the fucking bulldog sauce, right? So like, it's not traditional to bug in any way, shape or form, but like fucking Buldak great. So like I got that last time we went there and it's just been sitting in my freezer and I'm counting down the days until I can eat it. And I'm like, it's so fucking good.
Ice Bear (1:16:10)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Grizz (1:16:12)
It's delicious.
Ice Bear (1:16:14)
It really is. That's probably my favorite thing. Our one random Korean listeners like Jesus Christ learned to pronounce Korean so mad they're just rolling over in their living graves.
Grizz (1:16:27)
I feel that, also I think he's held over from me doing the, to Trevor. I think he, I think.
Ice Bear (1:16:34)
100 % and also
the appreciation that we both have for the food. They mean well, like they really like the food. So it's okay if they say it a little wrong. But yeah, it's so good. So good. I think maybe next week we should also have food. It should be a culinary and a beer experience.
Grizz (1:16:43)
They're just a little over started.
Ice Bear (1:17:03)
because I'm hungry now, I'm very hungry.
Grizz (1:17:05)
So I'm going to, OK, we're to run and get my third one real quick. It has to happen because it's my last one. And because of the time, has to happen. If anything, actually, you need to switch to your Dallas Mavericks hat. Ready, set, go.
Ice Bear (1:17:09)
You're a maniac, all right.
All right, go swiftly.
All right, fine. Swiftly.
Go.
but I'm participating.
We miss you, Luca. We miss you.
Hey, your hat's the same. It's not a Mavs hat. It's not a Mavs hat. Do you even like Luca? Do you even care? You're a Nico fan, aren't you? You like Nico. You... You like Nico.
Grizz (1:19:04)
So we're back after a brief intermission.
I can't hear you.
there you go. Nico Robin, I fucking love Nico Robin.
Nico, I fucking hate Nico. You know, all right.
Ice Bear (1:19:22)
no you like Nico
you're a Nico guy
Grizz (1:19:25)
If we talk about Nico Robin, top tier waifu. Love her. Everything about her. She's the best.
Ice Bear (1:19:32)
No, we're talking, you know which Nico we're talking about. That's not what Nico we're talking about, you know it.
Grizz (1:19:33)
Ne- Nico Robin can do nothing wrong. She's my favorite.
And we're talking about Dallas Mavericks, Nico. He's the person that single-handedly made Jerry Jones not the most hated person in fucking Dallas. Or Texas.
Ice Bear (1:19:44)
Yes.
I can't think of
a single person in a position of like power, like news related power that has fucked up as hard as him.
Grizz (1:20:03)
It makes no fucking sense.
Ice Bear (1:20:06)
And as this goes along, as this progresses, it gets worse.
Grizz (1:20:12)
1000 %
Ice Bear (1:20:14)
because Luca looks like a stud, like the Lakers, the way they're playing, especially when LeBron comes back, it's fun to watch. Like as a basketball fan, as someone that played it growing up, it's super fun to watch. from a...
Grizz (1:20:29)
Yeah, can
I tell how I found out about fucking Luca being traded? be me. We're talking about green ducks here. Be me. Middle-aged man laying in bed next to his spouse.
Ice Bear (1:20:34)
Please go on.
Grizz (1:20:50)
Casually casually going through reels and Instagram stories and stuff with said spouse Casually glances over to the side not really thinking of anything and sees an acquaintance of hers post something That has Luca in a Lakers Jersey and he and this man says welcome home me being a born in Britaxan
who lives in Dallas that is rather fond of Luca, right? Like I see welcome home and a Luca thing in a Laker Jersey with.
an acquaintance of mine who's stuck in the terrible in California saying welcome home. I was utterly offended. There's a lot of things that offend me. Somebody telling Luca welcome home to LA was one of the things. I literally stopped what I was doing and looked at said beautiful tiger and said, go back. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Ice Bear (1:21:52)
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
you
Grizz (1:22:05)
I could not believe my eyes. And I see that, I'm like, you know, fucking way.
And so I go start Googling. And from there, my heart's fucking broken. I'm talking about broken.
Ice Bear (1:22:19)
as it should be.
Grizz (1:22:21)
And in the middle of the night, knowing you have to go to work, I text you.
lamenting my sorrows and my disbelief.
Ice Bear (1:22:37)
Yeah, it was probably the most unbelievable thing that I've ever seen in terms of like sports. I can't think of anything. I was more like there's no way because the first thing I saw of it was also on Instagram. I was like, what a stupid meme. Like, that can't be real. And then I see it on ESPN. And it's so dumb.
It's such a dumb trade that my first thought was not, this is real. My first thought was someone hacked the ESPN genuinely. Like I was like, wow, they really committed. Like they somehow hacked ESPN and gotten like an article in there. Like Schwarm's account has been hacked. Not this is real. Like the man's account has been hacked. That was my first thought genuinely. And then
the day goes by and a couple of like you know like first things first and first day you can all these sports shows talk about it i'm like holy fucking shit it's real it's incomprehensibly dumb
Grizz (1:23:44)
It doesn't make sense.
Seeing all the reports of like Luca like fucking like coming to tears about being traded fucking broke me. You know the fact that the fact that he like just bought a new home in Dallas.
Ice Bear (1:23:57)
It's like...
just bought his house. man, it was brutal,
brutal. And also just like clearly like the first week there when he like he just looked sad. And it was it's especially it's magnified by the fact that like, over the years, he's talked about like LeBron was one of his idols. So I'm like, man, if you're playing with your idol, and you're still miserable for a little bit, like how bad is that?
Grizz (1:24:31)
It makes no fucking sense. It genuinely makes no sense.
Ice Bear (1:24:35)
So, all right, so here's my second question. Or maybe my first question? I don't know. What do you think the real reason is? What did he do to Nico? Because clearly he did something to that man.
Grizz (1:24:49)
conspiracy theory that Nico's wife her girlfriend like fucking luca i i that's the only thing i believe in because like ain't no fucking way anything makes sense because how are you gonna i so the only thing that was harder than accepting this lucca trade was like explaining this why this lucca trade is impactful to somebody who doesn't give a fuck about basketball or sports or anything so i was trying to like
Ice Bear (1:24:55)
That makes sense. That's the only thing that makes sense.
Grizz (1:25:20)
I was trying to explain to the tiger why shit
Ice Bear (1:25:31)
Bless you. Double bless you.
Grizz (1:25:32)
lord, thank
you. I was trying to explain to the tiger why lord
Ice Bear (1:25:41)
Triple bless you get a tissue animal Quadruple bless you do not sneeze again because I don't know what five is
Grizz (1:25:52)
Is an equit.
Ice Bear (1:25:54)
I was gonna say pentuple like a pentagon but I... no I don't think I am I think you're right I think quintuple is... no
Grizz (1:25:57)
Actually, you you're right. You know, you're right. You're right. You're right. Quintus No, you're right. No, I think isn't quit isn't quit nine. No pence
it pence, right? You're right. No, you're right
Ice Bear (1:26:08)
The Peruvian mathematician grandma is now furious with us.
Grizz (1:26:16)
love you. Anyways, look, the only thing harder than accepting this Luka trade was explaining to somebody who didn't give a fuck about Luka or basketball or any sports in general why this is such a fucking crazy thing. And I don't think I ever like actually explained it. The only thing I could say to people that were like mildly engaged was like, all right.
Ice Bear (1:26:37)
It was, it's maddening.
Grizz (1:26:44)
Kobe was like, Kobe will always be like one of the greats, even before he died. So Kobe, like he was always good, but he didn't really start making waves until what, his third year, right? Yeah, so like, it's like somebody trading like Kobe year two, like the end of year two. Like he's like, he's good, he's solid, he's young. But like, you know what? Nah.
Ice Bear (1:26:59)
Yeah, probably.
Grizz (1:27:14)
That's what this Luger trade is.
Ice Bear (1:27:19)
I think it's worse man because the thing is with the Mavs they were just in the finals You have Luca you have Kye the the the best the most entertaining backcourt imaginable paired with young athletic Fours and fives like D live is amazing gaff is amazing like it's a
Grizz (1:27:26)
They were fuc- Enkirey, my boy, my favorite fuc- my favorite flat earther
Yep. Yep. Yep.
Ice Bear (1:27:48)
The series against the Wolves last year, as a basketball fan, even if I remove myself from liking Luca and liking the Mavs, was so much fun to watch.
Grizz (1:27:57)
Yeah, so real quick,
so we think, intervention for this crackle and pop while this happens, so it perfectly sets my last beer.
Ice Bear (1:28:16)
That was a good one. That was really good. Yeah, it looked it looked and sounded good. So well done.
Grizz (1:28:17)
Was that good? It felt good, I'm not gonna lie. It felt really good.
Ice Bear (1:28:32)
That's some ASMR right there.
My favorite part about this is like just the crack and the poor, like the 30 second sounds by the sound bites that we get out of that. That's going to be more popular than the hour of us yammering. People are going to be like, I don't want to hear them talk. I just want to hear that.
Grizz (1:28:49)
I think I agree. Honestly, I do agree.
It is something good. I think we're going to give the people the tingles and then we're going to fucking annoy the shit out of it.
Yeah.
Ice Bear (1:29:06)
you
yeah.
Grizz (1:29:11)
was going for a different yeah but that works too. yeah brother. People don't like them anymore but do you remember those guys the hodge twins?
Ice Bear (1:29:14)
What was your yeah?
No.
Grizz (1:29:25)
They were like really, really, really big. They were like super huge like fitness influencers. then like people found out they were like not left of center. And then like people started hating them. So they're not that popular anymore. But like one thing they always did, and it was like two twins and they're like good looking lights come black dudes. But they were like, like, yeah. They're funny as shit though. They're funny as fuck.
Ice Bear (1:29:52)
Interesting. you
know what? I do remember them now. Yeah, I can absolutely picture him.
Grizz (1:29:57)
Yeah, and they would do the
food reviews of fast food while they were in their car and they would just be fucking tweaking with each other. They were funny as fuck. I don't give a fuck what anybody says. They're fucking hilarious. But yeah.
Ice Bear (1:30:11)
I don't
know them, so I'm gonna reserve judgment. I'm gonna say they were not funny. And I disagree with you, so that we're covered, I think.
Grizz (1:30:15)
That's fine. They're hilarious.
There
we go. We got to play both sides. That's how it works. But back to this, this loco travesty.
Ice Bear (1:30:35)
Yeah, so.
It's like it really like to my core it hurts me because you had what was last year from the second round to the finals. That was the most entertaining basketball just because not only was it fun to watch like the plays were exciting like between like Luca and Kai going off on threes and the dribbling and the lob dunks nonstop.
they genuinely seemed like as a team, they loved each other. And I do credit Kai with that. Like more than Luca, I think that's Kai. I think Kai built built like a team that was family. And as a fan, you can pick up on that. And so to have that like
Grizz (1:31:14)
Yep. huge. Yeah.
Yep.
Ice Bear (1:31:28)
you know, have the there's the one a one be the Batman Robin thing to have one of them stripped away. For no goddamn reason for you know, after the fact that they're saying this is a conditioning a health issue for a D who is a fucking perpetual health issue. The man is injury plagued beyond repair. Like stop it.
Grizz (1:31:45)
Dumbest shit ever.
Ice Bear (1:31:54)
just like it makes it so obvious that you just had a personal vendetta against the man and it it sucks because it was like they're both young like kai and luke are young the rest of the mabs are super young so like the the championship window especially after clay gets there is probably fucking five years minimum that you're gonna like legit have a shot at being in the chip and now you're
Honestly in my opinion like probably sell it to bother so like I know they're like kind of like teetering on the cusp of the play in right now, but I Can't see him making another run for Years because they like they traded the way they're their picks for a long time
Grizz (1:32:35)
Genuinely, no.
Yep, I can't fucking see especially to like I know it's like kind of like more up in the air and like kind of like hearsay but like if Kyrie leaves because he's open like next year like What the fuck do we got? Realistically like what the fuck do we got if Kyrie leaves to like if we lose Kyrie
Ice Bear (1:32:57)
Yeah, and why would he stay? I would if I was him I would leave.
Grizz (1:33:00)
1000 % like
yeah, yeah, yeah shit fucking oh Nothing hurts me more. All right, actually this
What was the greater loss? You ready for this? This is a good one because this is kind of this is apt. All right. Because both were very highly involved with us, like watching the finals together. shit. My bad. Watching the finals together. Both were like apt for us. You ready for this? What was the greater loss? Luca.
Ice Bear (1:33:17)
I'm listening. I'm curious.
Grizz (1:33:37)
or meth streams.
Ice Bear (1:33:40)
Okay, so
First meth streams is back by the way Okay came back this week So we we have not promoted this it's not a thing that you should do
Grizz (1:33:46)
Oh, is it? it? Oh my.
Ice Bear (1:33:54)
But if you like sports and you like them free, it's a thing that you could look at, but don't do it. Don't do it. Never do it. It's bad. It's illegal. Shame on you. Yeah, it's back. I have another one, by the way, that's a good backup and honestly a better backup. I'll send it to you. For.
Grizz (1:34:14)
Yes, and to me, we never heard
about this.
Ice Bear (1:34:16)
Yeah, for I'm not I'm not going to put it here because I don't want people to know about it. But I did find another one for every sport. It's really good. And it seems probably a little bit better than meth streams was.
Grizz (1:34:30)
The message was good because it was clear. It was good.
Ice Bear (1:34:32)
No, this this one is not
only is this one clear, but this one will Chromecast and like Apple play without any bullshit. So I'll send it to you remind me when we're done because I'm gonna I'm gonna forget. It's good. And I have it for basketball, hockey and UFC. Yes, it's good for everything. But yeah, Mets or that was bad. When Mets dreams first drop that was rough.
Grizz (1:34:44)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I most definitely will.
Damn, ooh.
Ice Bear (1:35:00)
That was painful because it took me a while to find a replacement. Luke is worse though because Luke is permanent.
Grizz (1:35:07)
That's very true, actually. So my question was predicated on, I didn't know if Massachusetts was back. So yeah.
Ice Bear (1:35:13)
Yeah, so it is back. It's it's now like meth streams
dot. It's not calm anymore. It's like dot some other country. But it.
Grizz (1:35:19)
something some shit yeah yeah yeah yeah it's like my favorite my
favorite pirate and anime site is like a russian server now so yeah it's not not common anymore but yeah so yeah okay so definitely lucas is the worst now i didn't know messrooms is back but like math when that went down i was like i really felt that
Ice Bear (1:35:25)
Yeah.
Yeah, no, that was the thing about that is. All of these.
Are we gonna are we gonna get pulled? we gonna get this Instagram gonna be mad at us because they're they're fans of other corporations. I don't know. We'll risk it. We'll risk it. All of the major sport leagues, they have created these like NFL Sunday ticket, NBA, blah, blah, blah, pass, blah, blah, blah, where it's like hundreds of dollars to consume your product.
Your average fan and the whole point of modern day sports in general is this is our Generation our timelines Roman gladiators This is meant to be a distraction from the bullshit. That is the world at large it needs to be affordable
Grizz (1:36:29)
Exactly.
Yep.
extremely accessible
not even not affordable it has to be stupidly accessible to keep us fucking satiated
Ice Bear (1:36:42)
Yes.
So it's
very hard for me to pretend like I don't want it for free because I do. And so when these various sites offer these things and they do it in a way that's great, you're like, yeah, that's how it should be. It's my distraction. It's my circus.
Grizz (1:36:51)
1000 %
Yep. I'll go one further. And my hot take is that like, IP is bullshit. So like, you know, we go from there. But I agree.
Ice Bear (1:37:21)
All right, we're going to have to edit out the last 10 minutes of this.
Grizz (1:37:25)
In a
way, we're just not going to give out the good stuff. So it doesn't get taken down. Now, our sponsor is fucking Red Horse. Fucking Budnangimo.
Ice Bear (1:37:28)
All right, but Budweiser is no longer a sponsor.
Red Horse!
you
Two to three of our listeners have now appreciated us immensely.
Grizz (1:37:50)
Just two to three and one half of them is pissed off because of the shitty pronunciation
Ice Bear (1:37:57)
Dala what to tatlo is that?
Well done. right. How's your how's your last one coming? Because I think I'm officially ready to rate this. Let me give it the final chug.
Grizz (1:38:07)
Okay
some of that.
Okay, so my second to last one. A little different than your last one. So give me the fruit notes to, or not the fruit notes, but give me the rating and the notes and all the beautifulness you have of your last B of the 2B.
Ice Bear (1:38:35)
Yeah, so again, I'm going to humbly require the help of untapped, not a sponsor, but you could be untapped. certainly could be. Mango is the thing I actually taste like with certainty. Like it's very mango forward. And it's fantastic. It's really easy to drink. There is something extra going on here.
Grizz (1:38:56)
So we talking about something else, like another fruit, or are we talking about some type of floral that you can't pinpoint? Interesting.
Ice Bear (1:39:01)
Like kind of a floral, kind of a
floral thing going on for sure.
Grizz (1:39:06)
Honestly though, has to be fucking pine because Canadian beers fucking love pine.
Ice Bear (1:39:12)
I- No, I don't think it's that. I mean, it could be. Watch it be pine. It's gonna be fucking pine.
Grizz (1:39:14)
No?
Ice Bear (1:39:26)
lemon that's what it is it is citrusy it's lemon because it's i don't know because one i'm i'm bad at like identifying things but it's lemon for sure so it's mango and yeah definitely it's mango lemon it's really good it's a plus this this is an a plus like flying flying monkeys mastermind well done well well well done
Grizz (1:39:31)
Why did you not get lemon?
for sure lemon.
A plus like A plus is huge. A plus is fucking huge. for my my my actually no before I say it give your closing notes on this A plus
Ice Bear (1:40:09)
Okay, so earlier we had mentioned where I'm a little concerned that sometimes the second beer gets like a little bit of a boost from inebriation. Even if this had been the first one, it's still an A plus. Like this is just, it's very good. It's flavorful. It's strong.
I would I would be thrilled to see it again I would I gladly buy more of them to the point where I'm really glad that when we were in the booze all store earlier today I was like asking should I get two of these and Sierra was like well you're gonna do this every week right and so I did get two of them so I have another one of these and I'm very happy I got two of so yeah no I really enjoy it deserves its a plus
Grizz (1:41:00)
So going back to my although I'm drinking my third Going back to my second because we didn't go for a second this symbol brewing company lunar phase That I stole from my significant other Because it's limited edition this one deserves
This one, I'm gonna give it a B +, although if someone were to give it an A +, or an A, I would be like, fucking valid. The only reason why I'm giving it a B +, is because this hazy epas are my fucking back, and it's my favorite, so I've had a lot of...
So I can compare it to other ones where I'm like, yeah, there's other ones that I'll shine it. But this one, think if anybody that's going into the IPA territory that want to like, like started getting into the hazies that like the citrus, that like the fucking stone fruit notes, this one, if you can get your hands on it, which is, don't know how much you're going to be able to get your hands on it. Cause it's a snake. You're the snake kind of promo of it. So you're not going to really be able to try it.
Ice Bear (1:41:49)
Very nice.
Grizz (1:42:18)
It's fucking up there. Phenomenal. It's great. I love it. Honestly, I kind of feel bad for sitting here from the tiger. hope she I like after drinking it, I wish she would have had it while she was here.
because it's great and I know she would liked it. I know she would have loved it. But fucking great. I'm giving it a B plus because I'm a harsh critic on hazies. But if somebody were to give it an A minus or an A, I would be like, yeah, you're not solid. Now, going on to my third because I'm breaking the rules because it's fucking episode one.
Ice Bear (1:42:52)
Understood. Yeah.
and you're a naughty little lad.
Grizz (1:43:03)
towards one i'm a naughty fucking bear shit i'm being stared at i thought i thought i was being inconspicuous but i looked over and i'm i felt miserable i i'm kind of scared now i'm not gonna lie
Ice Bear (1:43:14)
You failed miserably.
Grizz (1:43:23)
Damn. All right. Well, you know, I'm going to commit and full sending it. Going into all the sports talk was because of this one. So Luca being traded away from Dallas is one of the biggest travesties in sports history ever, especially in fucking Texas, especially even more in Dallas where all grist days. So like me who felt the fucking trade.
I felt so vindicated by this because one of my all time favorite breweries felt slighted by this as well. And granted, I've had this before because I bought the four pack. This was my last of the four pack, so I had to make the first episode because it's fucking valid. It's why my...
My valiant brother from the North is wearing said Mavericks hat. that? Look at that valiant logo. So Celestial Beer Works is one of my all time favorite breweries. It's top three at the very least, if not top two. The only one it has to fucking contend with is Martin House, who was my first beer of the first episode of Tooby Tooby. Celestial Beer Works.
felt so slighted by the fucking news of Luku being traded.
created a beer as soon as it fucking happened and it says so celestial beer works is
They created this beer and it says Dallas. Real quick before I get into it, Sausageo Beer Works is great because they always on their cans, all their releases, they say what their beer pairs well with. Whether that's Gruyere cheese, whether it's fucking french fries or mangoes or whatever the fuck. They always say it pairs well with something. And usually they're fucking spot on.
Ice Bear (1:45:27)
It's a smart touch.
Grizz (1:45:36)
On this one, they say Celestial Beer Works.
shit. No, no. We're going to have it through that. Okay. Celestial Beer Works. It says, Dallas, this beer pairs well with our despair and confusion.
Ice Bear (1:45:44)
We're gonna have it in the videos after, it's fine. Just tell the people.
A lot of both.
Grizz (1:46:02)
This is a double hazy Ipa hopped with Motika, which is a gris favorite and Nelson's Salvin.
Ice Bear (1:46:15)
Mm-hmm.
Grizz (1:46:22)
This ABV is a 7.7, which is fucking valid. Which if you don't know, a 7.7 is an homage to Luca who got traded to the fucking LA Lakers. Horrible, horrible LA Lakers. Luca's jersey.
Ice Bear (1:46:28)
We miss you, Luca.
Grizz (1:46:49)
for the Dallas Mavericks and the horrible, horrible, L.A. Lakers. It's 77. This beer's APV, ABV, is 7.7. So not the strongest beer, it's perfectly, perfectly fucking said. And absolutely delicious.
Ice Bear (1:47:11)
Mm-hmm.
Grizz (1:47:14)
This beer made for the travesty of Luka being fucking taken from us so callously and horribly. I feel like I'm Gills Jarray and fucking Joan of Arc got killed right in front of me. That's what I feel like right now, all right? If you don't know who that is, I feel like Luke finding out Darth Vader is my father.
because of this or like I feel like I feel like I'm honest for saying kill me kill me and the predator does not kill him. I feel like that or the predator actually kills him. That's what I feel like this beer right here is made for Luca and it's called see all these deflated basketballs. They're deflated just like our souls and hearts here in Dallas because a stupid fucking Nico.
Ice Bear (1:47:41)
You
Mm-hmm.
Grizz (1:48:08)
This is Celesto Beer Works. Sell the team. A beautiful.
thing commemorating our loss of Luca here in Dallas. Nego, I fucking hate you.
Ice Bear (1:48:26)
Mm-mm-mm. Mm-mm-mm.
Grizz (1:48:32)
And if anybody in your family gets cancer, that's bad. That's bad. not going to wish that on you. But if it happens, I'm not going to say anything nice about you. I'm just going to say that. I'm just going say, you know. OK, fine. If you get cancer.
Ice Bear (1:48:43)
that's that's fair that's fair
Grizz (1:48:56)
Niko, you get cancer, I'm not going to feel bad. The fact that you have the same name as one of the best waifus in the world makes me hate you even more.
Ice Bear (1:49:09)
That sums it up.
Grizz (1:49:11)
thousand percent so sell the team
If I was being objective, this Hazy IPA is a B+. But because of the can and the name, it's a motherfucking S tier. But the beer itself, if I'm being objective, is a B+. It's a solid beer. Anybody that likes IPAs, especially anybody that hates IPAs, you're going to enjoy it. But if you can't come to Texas while we're mourning Luca's
Ice Bear (1:49:24)
objective.
There you go.
Grizz (1:49:51)
leaving to fucking the shitty state of California, you're never gonna have it. So, objectively to B +, emotionally, it's an S++++.
Ice Bear (1:50:08)
I mean, I can't think of a better way to wrap it up.
Yeah, I think that was good.
Grizz (1:50:13)
I think we're doing pretty good. You know, we
talked about it being an hour We're at one Basically 1 50 we're basically at 1 50 so we got a couple of minutes left like we should kind of wrap this up and kind of really dial this in so We're going in I will say For me total things for this to be to be
Ice Bear (1:50:21)
We're at two.
I think so. Yeah.
Grizz (1:50:46)
Last Gemini.
Why don't I give it a B plus? Right, B plus.
Ice Bear (1:50:52)
I think so.
It's going to be funny to go back and find out. It's probably going to be like way off. I give it a B plus, right? It was an F originally.
Grizz (1:50:57)
We were like, hey, whoa. Yeah,
so as of right now, before I roll the tape, B plus.
No, actually, think Gemini's an A, a solid A. Not A plus, but an A.
Ice Bear (1:51:10)
That's it.
There you go.
Grizz (1:51:18)
Fucking lunar, whatever the fuck, what is it? Lunar phase with a Z, because we stylish. B plus. And sell the team, because I'm a fucking hard ass with hazies. There's a B plus. But emotionally it's an S plus, because you know what? I hate Luca.
Ice Bear (1:51:29)
That is a good looking can.
Grizz (1:51:45)
Not Luca, I'm sorry. I got ahead of myself. I met Nico, I love Luca. I fucking hate Nico.
Ice Bear (1:51:45)
No, you don't. I know what you meant. You meant Nico.
Correct.
Yeah, that's fair. And I feel the same way. I second that.
Grizz (1:51:56)
Amen, I have.
Did you see real quick because we are at March 14th, 2024 while we were recording this. Oh shit, it is Pi Day. So there is a band that has a song called Pi and it's 3.14.
Ice Bear (1:52:08)
Bye.
Grizz (1:52:20)
They do it they when they play it live every measure of the song is for pie So it's the first measure is three point this three fourth time And then the second measure is one fourth time and then it's four four time and it goes on All the way while they're doing the pie thing. It's fucking amazing between the buried in me. I fucking love you, but Yeah, it's fucking phenomenal. Anyways outside of that Nico your piece of shit and
And there was this thing with different owners for the Mavericks and motherfucker admitted today, March 14th, 2025, that the fucking Luka trade on their end was not a random thing. Like Nico said, it was a long-term decision that they ended up making. So they're full of shit and I hate them and I hope they all get cancer and I hope.
their moms aren't too sad about it.
Ice Bear (1:53:23)
What a mic drop. Okay.
Grizz (1:53:23)
Boom.
My mic's on
a stand so I can't drop it, but that was a drop.
Ice Bear (1:53:32)
All right, right, Carmageddon.
Grizz (1:53:36)
Great name by the way.
Ice Bear (1:53:37)
It is a really good name. It's a really good can was very tasty. 8.1 double EPA. Uh, I don't remember what I said earlier, but currently I'm saying a B plus. I might've said B earlier, but I'm giving it a B plus now. So that's going to be my final grade when we review it. Uh, alien mastermind flying monkeys. You've done it again. Uh, absolutely an A plus. was a treat.
Grizz (1:53:54)
baby
Ice Bear (1:54:06)
I would I'm looking forward to having another one hundred percent I had fun did you have fun
Grizz (1:54:18)
I kinda loved it. So I hope all the people that downloaded our old podcast episodes, oops, that downloaded our old podcast episodes from Sri Lanka and South America and all the other things, look this one too. It was, I don't know, you know.
Ice Bear (1:54:19)
Good time.
Yeah, I hope you liked it.
Grizz (1:54:42)
We're at 154. It's not too bad. We've got a couple more minutes before we hit two. I think that's a good two, a double episode is good for our first episode. Yeah, I think it's pretty good.
Ice Bear (1:54:54)
The inaugural, yeah.
I think it's good too. Don't edit any of it. I think just leave it just raw.
Grizz (1:55:03)
We will go brah the only edit
Ice Bear (1:55:06)
and that and
then just know from the future will be better maybe or not probably not
Grizz (1:55:15)
Probably a little better. I think it will get a little better.
Ice Bear (1:55:18)
I can definitely not spill my first beer. I can do that for sure. That was embarrassing. Yeah, a little bit on the mic. I just overflowed it.
Grizz (1:55:22)
Oh, did you spill your first beer?
OK, so I didn't catch that. My first beer sprayed me in the eye. I felt like a floosey. Not going to lie.
Ice Bear (1:55:32)
Yeah, I did catch that. I was keenly aware of that.
Grizz (1:55:41)
you know and then not pass that like you know wasn't it wasn't i think this is a good first episode i think we shall go from there i think episodes going forward will be as close to an hour as possible
Ice Bear (1:55:49)
Hmm.
Yes.
Grizz (1:56:00)
Weekly, think we can I think we can dedicate ourselves weekly We're pretty good about drinking together weekly. There ain't no reason why we can't make this While we sure core weekly because we do drink together weekly The only thing is we have we have to get comfortable Attaching our weekly things with actual weekly things happening
Ice Bear (1:56:03)
I think we can do that. I think we can do that.
Yes, that's true too.
Grizz (1:56:30)
So
luckily Niko made that easy for us this time. Cause Niko's the fucking devil. Super current. Especially with now with the old boy saying that the Luca trade was not a quick thing, not an after minute thing, it was a actual thing that they knew for a while.
Ice Bear (1:56:34)
Mm-hmm. That was current.
times.
Grizz (1:57:02)
So make out you're the devil.
You got anything to say?
Ice Bear (1:57:09)
I think that concludes it nicely,
Grizz (1:57:14)
Got any sponsors left? Last bit of it.
Ice Bear (1:57:18)
I think we burned them all at this point.
Grizz (1:57:26)
Budweiser.
Ice Bear (1:57:27)
