Bourbon meets maritime adventure in this entertaining exploration of Jefferson's Ocean Aged at Sea. Matt and Phil crack open Voyage 20 of this unique whiskey that traveled the world's oceans before landing in their glasses. The bottle comes complete with a ship's log detailing its journey through the Panama Canal, around the Pacific Rim, and up the Atlantic coast—written with such flourish you'd think Hemingway was the captain.
What started as a straightforward whiskey tasting spirals into a delightful debate about whether aging bourbon on ships actually enhances the flavor or merely creates a compelling backstory. The 90-proof bourbon presents as surprisingly light, lacking the complexity and depth of other Jefferson's offerings, raising questions about whether the ocean voyage is worth the premium price tag. "If this is a gimmick," Phil remarks, "I want to taste ocean water."
The conversation takes an unexpected but hilarious detour through Tom Hanks' filmography, demonstrating the hosts' signature conversational chemistry. From "Big" to "You've Got Mail" and everything between, they connect nearly every Hanks movie to their nautical whiskey journey. By the time they circle back to bourbon, you've forgotten you're listening to a whiskey podcast and not hanging out with two friends who've had just enough bourbon to get wonderfully sidetracked.
Whether you're a whiskey aficionado curious about innovative aging techniques or simply enjoy listening to engaging, meandering conversations fueled by good spirits, this episode delivers both information and entertainment in equal measure. Grab a glass of your favorite bourbon and join Matt and Phil as they determine if this seafaring spirit sinks or swims.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi Hi, hi, hi, black and blue.
Today, man Rough day, it's cold, it's cold, it is cold.
It's like outside and it wasall windy, is it?
And cold?
Is it cold the cold was?
Are we in?
Speaker 2 (00:16):
spring.
Yet I don't know, I don't think.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
I don't think Chicago knows what it is.
I feel like we're far away fromeach other, it could be summer
already.
I feel like it should be right.
Mother's Day is coming up.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Mother's Day is right around the corner.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Mother's Day is over, but it's coming up for us, but
for the listeners it's past.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Well, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Never know, maybe somebody?
Speaker 2 (00:43):
No, the release day is going to be two days after
after oh, that's right, welcometo whiskey bits with matt and
phil, where we sip on everydaywhiskeys and find the funny in
our everyday lives.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Um, you were like reciting a poem or something.
What were you doing?
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Well, tonight we're going to try Jefferson's ocean
aged at sea.
Ooh, did you get the Jeffersonthat you texted me about?
How else would I have taken thepicture and drinking?
Speaker 1 (01:15):
directly from the bottle.
Oh, you just did.
You didn't just do that at the,at the store.
Could you imagine we should tryit All?
Right, I mean we have to buy it.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
This is a blend of bourbon whiskeys, a very small
batch.
This one comes in at 90 proof45% alcohol.
Oh wow, by value.
It's really low.
So the really fun thing aboutthese Jefferson aged at seas is
each one comes with a ship's log.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Come on.
This is one of those that'slike Log Come on.
This is one of those that'slike it's okay, we'll see if
it's a gimmick.
That's all I gotta say.
I'm curious.
If it's a gimmick, I want totaste ocean water.
Captain's log.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Captain's log.
Captain's log.
There's someone on the boat.
Ocean Voyage 20.
Ooh, a dramatic reading.
Wow, only Voyage 20.
This voyage left port Underclear skies and slight seas.
There was a chill in the air At45 degrees, which warmed as the
(02:21):
sun rose.
Above the fog bank being heldoffshore by an offshore breeze.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Sorry, how can you be held offshore by an offshore?
Okay, whatever.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
I feel like there was some redundancy.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Yeah, there's just more words out there.
You know, maybe look up somemore.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
As the wind increased and the seas became moderate,
the bright sun over the oceangave it a golden glow that
shimmered across the tops of thefour-foot waves and remained
such all the way to the northentrance of the Panama Canal.
Oh my.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Four-foot waves all the way.
Ow, I pinched myself.
Does it smell?
Ooh, is this one of thosethings?
So it's aged in the ocean.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
All right, does it smell?
Oh, is this one of those things?
So it's aged in the ocean, allright.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
so yeah, the the whole idea here is yes, if you
put your ear, I can hear theglass you can hear the bourbon
and also you might give yourselfa nice ear canal cleaning I
wonder, interesting oh oh itdoes smell.
Oh, it smells a little sweet.
There's a little sweetness onthe nose there.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Yeah.
So the whole thing around thisis that it's aged at sea and so
the voyage that we're readingabout here in the ship log tells
us about the I was going to sayit tells us about the log.
Does it tell us about the, theI was gonna say it tells us
about the log.
Does it tell us about?
the the log from the ship yeah,because no redundancies there
(03:51):
because of the way that theywrote the offshore it's whiskey
bits, where we'd have bits andwhiskey in the reverse order
traffic was light in the canalthat day, my my friends.
Is that what it says?
No, it doesn't.
It actually does say trafficwas light in the canal and while
the humidity was up, thetemperature held to the mid 80s.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
So would that actually do anything?
So what's the deal I mean forthe listener, because I
obviously know the deal iswhat's the gimmick?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
It's a gimmick.
Why don't you tell us?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
I feel like it's a gimmick Aged at sea to me.
Remember we talked about cremebrulee.
I want to taste creme brulee.
This I want to like.
I feel like it should tastesalty.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Well, the idea is that the barrels that sit in the
ship Are sloshing aroundthey're jostled to and fro,
uh-huh To and fro, on the bottomof this ship, this one, voyage
20.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
On Voyage 20.
Yeah, we made that clear at thebeginning.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
We now have them going south to the Panama Canal.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Okay, but doesn't something like the humidity or
the seawater?
I mean, shouldn't that?
Speaker 2 (05:08):
I don't know.
I mean certainly the humidityand the heat, right, you know.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Like what if you put the barrels in the water and
like dragged it along, kind oflike trolled?
Speaker 2 (05:20):
with the barrels.
I think it would keep it toocool.
I don't think the temperaturechanges would be there.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
That's a good point, yeah, so it does need to still
be hot.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
I mean it needs to be something.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Yeah, humid at least.
All right, you tasted it, I did, you took a sip, I did.
I'm just getting like not Well,it's a 90 proof, so it's not
overly like bam hitting you inthe face with the nose.
So the fumes coming off the,the ethanol fumes, not really
hitting you, but I did get itlike a sweet smell.
(05:52):
So I'm curious to see what ittastes like.
Oh yes, please tell me verylight oh that's burning a little
bit very light, mm-hmm, oh,that's burning a little bit.
And now, hmm, I don't detectany saltiness.
(06:17):
It's not very salty Salty snack, yeah, hmm, I have to try it
again.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Pulling away from the loss of Balboa and entering the
Pacific Ocean.
The typhoon season was alreadythree months underway, a season
unlike the Atlantic hurricaneseason that extends over a six
to seven month period.
Typhoons in the Pacific canoccur anytime throughout the
year.
Pacific.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
If this is the, United.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Are you really having a difficult time?
Speaker 1 (06:53):
If this is the United , this is Florida.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Florida, apparently, is Aroused.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
No, it's not aroused.
That's Florida.
Okay, so the Pacific's here,california yes, ah wait, are you
?
This is a really.
This is a thing.
See you learn things in school.
Wow, still is doing geography,so I was able to brush up all
(07:22):
right.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
So, uh, I'm wondering where the port was, cause it
doesn't actually say the port inwhich it probably in you goal
yeah port you go portugal.
I'm leaving.
Get it, dad joke loading.
We haven't done that in a while.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
I'm leaving I, you know, it's just there's not a
lot of depth of flavor, okay,just not a lot of depth.
It's, it's light, meaning itdoesn't there's not a lot of
complexity, but like not a lot.
I I don't mind it actually,though it is actually there's
not a lot of like that bitteraftertaste I'm not getting.
(08:03):
I'm just I'm getting just kindof a real nice light, almost as
if it was like a light breeze,you know, on the on the ocean
ocean voyage.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
20 had was headed south, you're still on the
equator.
You're really obsessed withthis and the storm activity is
was well to the north, crossingthe equator.
The season switched from springto autumn, seas were slight,
skies were clear, thetemperature remained a balmy 85
degrees and the ocean continuedto sparkle like liquid gold why
are they?
Speaker 1 (08:32):
no, it's blue, it's not even.
And just because you cross theequator doesn't mean it's fall
when it's still be.
I mean the toilet's flush inreverse.
No, no, that's true it is.
It's fall past the equator.
Yeah, why?
Because it's further from thesun.
Depends where the sun is at thetime.
(08:56):
You don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
It doesn't depend.
Do you know?
In Australia?
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Getting some corn husk.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
We're heading into summer right.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Yeah, here.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Australia is heading into winter.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Winter.
Yes, really yes.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Why?
Because of the sun.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Mr Sun Sun, mr Golden Sun, remember that song.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Nope, okay, all you have to do is some research.
I think you'll figure it out.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
I'm going to look it up.
I am stuck on the fact thattoilets flush the opposite way,
though With the exception of arough spot during our run
between Melbourne and Fremantle.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
A rough spot during our run between Melbourne and
Fremantle, voyage 20 had smoothsailing up and around the
Pacific Rim, back through theCaribbean, up the east coast of
the US and in and out of theNorth Atlantic, as we docked at
7.40 am in Savannah, that's inGeorgia.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Savannah.
So wait, they went below SouthAmerica, this thing traveled, or
they went through the PanamaCanal, Panama.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Canal, pacific Rim.
I don't know where that is.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
It's in Panama.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Okay, so they went through, but they were down
there and then into the AtlanticAll the way up.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Yeah, so they went all the way around the world.
I mean it's flat, so they wentacross the world.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Clearly you can't.
I mean obviously.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
So as we docked at 740 Amin Savannah.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Somebody had to write all this.
Do you think they have a guy onthe ship that just said they're
like I gotta?
It's the ship's log For thewhiskey we have to.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Yeah, they log every voyage.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
They're leaving some stuff out.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
They log the voyage At some point.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I wanna read, I wanna find a good one Like forget
this thing.
I wanna find a good one LikeI'm the captain, now you Forget
this thing.
I want to find a good one LikeI'm the captain, now you know at
some point, Like somebody hastaken over the ship.
How big do you think the shipis?
I don't know, I'm picturinglike a pirate ship.
I don't think it's that big.
No, you think it's just like alittle trolling.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
I mean, it's big enough to have a few barrels on
there.
I mean like they gotta make itworth their while well, let me
tell you this um, this is bottle129970, so 1200, and well, I
don't know, did they maybestarted at 129129?
(11:32):
Like 969 yeah like, and this isjust 970 of all of them yeah,
you know, I know I have no clueInteresting.
Maybe it started at 1299 andlike it's just bottle 70 and
this was the last one, who knows?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
I want to be the guy like driving that boat yeah, the
captain, yeah, that guy, theship captain yeah, I want to be
the captain now, yeah.
You could be, I could be.
We should figure out where andlike we should and just rent a
boat and just drive one, even ifit's just one barrel, just
drive it around, like hey, wedid it, we could log it, we'll
log it.
But I think we should try toget in some trouble, like have
(12:06):
some drama, like to me that's aboring read.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
It's like great, it's not done yet.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
You're talking about glistening ocean okay, cool.
Um you know what else glistens?
Anything that has reflectivesurfaces.
So congratulations.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
7 40 am in savannah.
Savannah, the sun had risenover a still and golden sea,
just as it had upon departure.
With the golden sea, steadytemperatures and gentle seas had
a mellowing effect on the crewand the bourbon of ocean voyage
20.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Oh, they finally mentioned the bour.
Good, I'm glad we got around tothat.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
And you can experience its golden glow, neat
or shimmering, over an ice cubeor two.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
I can tell you, I guarantee you, they did not
write golden glow in the shiplog.
I'm just going to throw thatout there.
I think that was added later.
I would have added it like Iwould have taken it seriously.
I would come on, guys,embellish a little bit like
nobody's.
Nobody knows.
It's like you the first mateand the captain, that's it right
(13:09):
.
That's the only people thatprobably be witness to any story
.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
So I'd be like dude albatross came out about the
professor and marianne that'strue, all those guys gilligan,
we crash landed.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
We saw jack sparrow and blackbeard the howls, yep,
whoever they are and are they,the rich people?
I don't know oh, is that fromgilligan?
And uh, and there was, you know, we fought tom hanks.
Uh, we picked him up, he was onan island.
Yeah, he had.
He had, you know, crash, landedon island and marooned out on a
(13:42):
dock, right A little thing hebuilt and we picked him up.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
So he was with us and then, unfortunately, luck has
it, the boat gets taken over,because he also was Captain
Phillips.
So our boat got taken over bypirates and yeah, pirates and
(14:06):
yeah.
And then, uh, thankfully though, uh, we, uh, we, he had a, a
cowboy hat and gun that he coulduse to to shoot at the bad guys
and uh, but at one point heturned into a kid, andy, no, uh,
he was he.
You know, he was big for awhile and then he went back to
his normal kid self and realizeit was just a kid all along.
Oh so okay but uh, yeah if itwasn't for that mangy mutt he
(14:27):
had with him, was it hooch orpooch or I?
Speaker 2 (14:31):
don't know what it was.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Yeah, yeah, no that's true, and Meg Ryan kept showing
up a lot.
I don't know what you'retalking about, so yeah, it was
good that's right.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
I just I, I remember the time that, right after that,
oh after that, right after thatwhen, um, when he started, he
started working for a recordlabel and he was out finding
bands.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Yeah, what was the thing that he did?
Speaker 2 (15:05):
It was a weird time.
What was the thing that he did,though?
Right, well, what he was tryingto do was he was trying to
catch Frank Abernathy.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Oh, right, right, right.
Yeah, Because you're like hey,that thing that you do, you're
like hey, if you can, can youcatch him?
Catch him, catch me, catch him.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Catch anybody, catch him, if you can.
That thing you do, yeah, thatthing you do.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
That thing you do.
Catch him, if you can.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
Woody, that's right.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
That's right.
Then we dropped him off at anairport.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
At an airport and he was like I don't speak.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
English.
I just wandered around Airport.
There's a lot of tom hanksmovies.
That's really what I'm gettingout of.
This is that there's a lot oftom hanks movies and they're all
gems.
Yeah, I was gonna sleepless inseattle.
Oh, now we're just gonna saythe names of the movies, we're
gonna describe them, or we'rejust like we've given up on no
but that's a perfect bridge towhat we're.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
But yeah, I know, I just joke blocked us.
But how many more tom hanksmovies?
What is your favorite tom hanksmovie?
Speaker 2 (16:03):
oh, man, big yeah, pick was one of my favorites.
I used to love that watching.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Yeah, I don't know if I would show my son, though,
because I'm pretty sure at onepoint you know he he, he, he, he
didn't.
There's a thing that happens, Idon't know that he did well, he
touches, you know he does.
He.
Let's just say he's graspingfor things I mean I, I would say
that I was probably a littleolder when I watched.
I think back then, though, it'slike our parents were like, hey,
(16:29):
whatever, but then like they'dbe like hey, you can't watch
power rangers.
I'm like I just watchedkickboxer with john claude van
damme, now I can't watch powerrangers.
That doesn't make sense.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
I was never told I couldn't watch Power Rangers.
I didn't want to, because I waswatching.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Because you're watching Big Boxer, like, if
this is the kind of stuff that'son a PG movie, let's go.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
That's right, that's right, yeah, yeah, it's good,
it's good.
I love it.

favorite Favorite Tom Hanks movie.
Oh, you've got mail.
For sure I love it If I've seenit once.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
I know it was a long time ago and I can't?
I just don't think so.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
It'd be a shame to miss New York in the spring.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Did he play Sully?
Speaker 1 (17:13):
He did Sullenberger.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yeah, so the other thing that he did, he crashed a
plane.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
Yeah, that's where we originally were gonna pick him
up.
Eventually we all got on theplane and then he crashed it
right and I was like thanks,dude, like thanks a lot for
doing that, but thank you fordoing that because you saved us
so.
And we were in new york so hecan get his mail crucial, yeah,
crucial.
But then he had to take itovernight to seattle because he
just could not sleep Could notno.
(17:41):
Oh my gosh, we did it.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
We did it.
Did we do all of them?
I'm sure there's some in there.
Yes, we did, every single timewe had to have missed some.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Every Wes Anderson movie he's been in.
He's in all those.
Now he's been in a lot of those.
What's the?
It's not the men who stare atgoats, but it was a weird title,
yeah.
What the heck was it Like in abasement or something, is it not
?
No, I don't know, he wasn't inthat one.
There was a.
It was a weird, I don't knowSome weird movie.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Wait, wait, wait, yeah when he's.
It's like they're like robbingsomething.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Yes, that was a good flick it was.
It was a really good, I like.
I mean I love tom hanks I thinkhe's such a good actor.
Yeah, um, and some of like someof those stars like their kids,
(18:34):
you know, you're like oh, okay,some of them like actually do a
lot.

as big.
Um, he did some show with brielarson.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Yeah, I don't know, but like colin hanks I really
like yeah, I think you weretrying to that's.
I think you were trying to geta real person.
Yeah, a real person.
I don't think Lewis Pullman.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
No, Bill Pullman's real Lewis is not, though man.
No, but Colin Hanks, that showthat he's on that got canceled
Life in Pieces.
Oh my gosh so funny, so good sogood, so good.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
He's actually a really good actor too.
He's funny.
Yeah, he is, he's a reallyfunny guy.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Because wasn't he in American Pie, those movies,
wasn't he in no?
It was like a guy that lookslike him, though.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Yeah, but that was a little bit before.
But he was in a couple of thoseslapstick comedies as well.
As the awkward teenager,whatever, but he really came
into his own and Tom Hanks has alot of.
He's got a few kids with RitaWilson.
No, is that right?
Yeah, I didn't know that.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
He's got Chet.
No, yes, chet, chet Hanks, Ithink I might be wrong.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Wikipedia would know.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
I think it is, hey, wikipedia, oh, they don't.
They don't have that.
That's not a thing.
What do you think of this?
You didn't really say much,yeah, yeah, I to me.
I think it's cool, it's a coolstory, sort of um, I again would
say, well, first of all, Iwould say the Jefferson single
(20:19):
barrel, very, very old,amazingly better, like, so good.
So it's not like, oh, you know,knocking their brand and I'm
curious how close to the, themash bill that this is to that.
Yeah, you know what I mean.
Like, if, if, that, if they'reJefferson, um, jefferson reserve
(20:40):
, yeah, if they're reserve likesingle barrel, very small, like
or very old, is that good?
Is it really the difference ofputting on a boat and driving
around the world, or boatingaround the world, or sailing
around the world, versus sailing?
Speaker 2 (20:59):
I'm sailing bill murray.
I'm a sailor, I'm a sailor.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Um, or is it?
You know the difference betweenthat and being in the rick
house.
Wherever they are, where arethey?
Where is jefferson's reserve?
Let's look it up I thoughtyou'd never ask oh, oh, my
goodness.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
You shouldn't have asked.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
New York City Okay.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Really, really.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
That is bizarre, huh, I mean, is it MGP?
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Good question?
I don't think so Huh.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Interesting New York City.
Well, I mean the water in New.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
York is Okay it makes it.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Are you going to say more?
Look, when I was in New York.
When I was in New York, myhands, the water when I was in.
New York?
That's Harry the water.
When I was in New York.
That's Harry Carey.
What are we doing?
You started it?
No, when I was in New York.
No, the water.
It makes a big difference withthe bagels, bagels and the pizza
.
Oh, the pizza.
We should go to New Yorktonight.
(22:13):
Let's go right now.
Okay, Red Eye, Get some pizzaand come on back.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
I don't know.
Oh man, you think they do.
I don't know.
I feel like somebody's gonnaprobably drive there to new york
.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Yeah, it's like 17 hours isn't it.
It's not that bad because wedid we did.
The worst part is driving back.
That's true because the the waythe earth rotates my, actually,
it should be faster on the wayback, right, because you're
going with the earth, therotation.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
It's flat.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
What difference does it make?
Well, still a flat earth, can?
It slides throughout the galaxy.
Yeah, it's like this Slides.
Yeah, it's just sliding.
Yeah, it's like a Like takelike a plate.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Or a like take like a plate, yeah.
Or like this look here, this isit a coaster, this is earth.
Yep, that's what it does.
What, yeah?
So like if you're in a car, ifyou imagine this is on top of it
I could imagine or you couldactually just do it yeah, and
you're driving so, like, ifyou're driving like this, is you
here?
look so that everyone can seethis is your car.
This is the earth, the earthmoving throughout the galaxy.
If it's flat, then the earthmoving throughout the galaxy.
If it's flat, then it's movingthroughout the galaxy.
(23:22):
It's sliding like a hockey puck, but then you're driving that
way, right?
So then you're going like this,which means it's faster, right,
you're going to get home faster, but look, if you're going the
same direction, you're nevergoing to get there.
You can drive and drive anddrive all day.
You're gonna just be stuckright where you're at.
(23:43):
It's not a treadmill, that's,but that's how that works that's
science, phil, is it?
Speaker 2 (23:46):
I heard the flat earthers recently spent a lot of
money on like lasers and otherthings.
Um, to prove that they provedthemselves wrong and it
accidentally proved that it waswrong.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
Like nobody saw that.
Turn those off Idiot.
Wow, it reminds me of in Parksand Rec, that the alien crew
that every four years they thinkthat that lizard alien is going
to it's the end of the world.
They're like actually we got itwrong so we need to reschedule
for next year.
(24:21):
How about April 3rd?
And she's like oh, I have anopening on April 4th.
Yeah, I think that my mind wasmistaken.
It is actually supposed to beApril 4th.
Wait, april 4th.
You know, I have a recital thatday for my granddaughter, but I
think I remember, I don't knowthe the bad, the alien saying uh
(24:42):
no, it's actually april 7th.
Yes, april 7th looks good.
Oh, that's when the end theworld is.
It's around.
Your calendar got it perfect.
Can you imagine, though, if youjust if that's how it worked
it'd?
be horrible if you just likedrove and then like the earth,
you was moving and you wouldn'tgo anywhere.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
It would suck.
I don't think it's hard to evenimagine, because of how
terrible your experience is howstupid this is.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I mean, we went from Tom Hanks to I don't even know
to flat earthers, so we went todriving to New York.
Is Tom Hanks a Flat Earther?
That's the question we want toleave you with the listener,
Just the listener, yeah, becauseI'm pretty sure At this point,
(25:33):
I'm pretty sure Brooks is like,yeah, I'm done with this episode
.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
You better be, so yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
You have any left, I drank it.
It's an easy drink, it doesn'thurt.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Yeah, you know, it didn't hurt.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
I don't know that I would really.
I don't know, I don't know if Iwould put it in anything.
It's kind of watery.
It watered down a little bit.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Maybe, like it, spent a lot of time in the ocean.
Probably Well I feel weirdcheersing with an empty glass,
but you know not much to cheerfor.
I'm not a huge fan, it's okay,I probably wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
I'm glad that you bought it and I didn't.
Now, what are we going to dowith it?
No, hide it in the back.
I found one of the ones you hidback there.
Oh, that was even more watery.
Oh, remember that one.
No, it's like 18 oh, the eightdollar.
Speaker 2 (26:30):
The eight dollar, the one that we got from schnooks
yeah, yeah, yeah, schnooksbourbon, oh my god, it's just
called schnooks bourbon.
That just says bourbon on it,just bourbon.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Oh my God, it's just called Schnucks bourbon, that's
it.
It just says bourbon on it,just bourbon yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
And there's a sticker at the top that says Schnucks
Bought at Schnucks.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Good, glad we bought it there.
Paid, paid, paid in full.
Well, all right Well this isgood, yeah, I some good ones and
I I think we need to pull outone of the, a better whiskey,
one of the top dogs.
Okay, for the next one, I'm notgonna change in a week, I'm
(27:05):
just gonna wear the same thing,I think, for next time I mean,
it depends on how warm it isoutside.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
But right now, if I look at the, if I look at the,
it's supposed to be 80s.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
It's gonna be me, so I probably will be wearing a
t-shirt.
You could just walk around with.
That probably age it a littlebit I'm not walking around with
this.
Okay, there's so much otherbourbon, let's say, put it, put
it back in the barrel, let itsit somewhere else for a while.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
So maybe you know what I'll do.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
I'll drive around with the car for a while I'm
going to call tom hanks and saylook, we need you to fly
somewhere so that we can I willkeep, keep.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
I'll keep a log, yeah .
Speaker 1 (27:42):
Keep a log?
We should do.
Yeah, whatever happened tokeeping logs, that's a whole
nother episode.
That's true.
We'll log that in and we'llkeep it for later.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Hey, hey, thanks Phil , thanks Matt, this was See you
later.
Speaker 1 (27:56):

Hi Hi, hi, hi, black and blue.
Today, man Rough day, it's cold, it's cold, it is cold.
It's like outside and it wasall windy, is it?
And cold?
Is it cold the cold was?
Are we in?
Speaker 2 (00:16):
spring.
Yet I don't know, I don't think.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
I don't think Chicago knows what it is.
I feel like we're far away fromeach other, it could be summer
already.
I feel like it should be right.
Mother's Day is coming up.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Mother's Day is right around the corner.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Mother's Day is over, but it's coming up for us, but
for the listeners it's past.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Well, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Never know, maybe somebody?
Speaker 2 (00:43):
No, the release day is going to be two days after
after oh, that's right, welcometo whiskey bits with matt and
phil, where we sip on everydaywhiskeys and find the funny in
our everyday lives.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Um, you were like reciting a poem or something.
What were you doing?
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Well, tonight we're going to try Jefferson's ocean
aged at sea.
Ooh, did you get the Jeffersonthat you texted me about?
How else would I have taken thepicture and drinking?
Speaker 1 (01:15):
directly from the bottle.
Oh, you just did.
You didn't just do that at the,at the store.
Could you imagine we should tryit All?
Right, I mean we have to buy it.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
This is a blend of bourbon whiskeys, a very small
batch.
This one comes in at 90 proof45% alcohol.
Oh wow, by value.
It's really low.
So the really fun thing aboutthese Jefferson aged at seas is
each one comes with a ship's log.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Come on.
This is one of those that'slike Log Come on.
This is one of those that'slike it's okay, we'll see if
it's a gimmick.
That's all I gotta say.
I'm curious.
If it's a gimmick, I want totaste ocean water.
Captain's log.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Captain's log.
Captain's log.
There's someone on the boat.
Ocean Voyage 20.
Ooh, a dramatic reading.
Wow, only Voyage 20.
This voyage left port Underclear skies and slight seas.
There was a chill in the air At45 degrees, which warmed as the
(02:21):
sun rose.
Above the fog bank being heldoffshore by an offshore breeze.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Sorry, how can you be held offshore by an offshore?
Okay, whatever.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
I feel like there was some redundancy.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Yeah, there's just more words out there.
You know, maybe look up somemore.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
As the wind increased and the seas became moderate,
the bright sun over the oceangave it a golden glow that
shimmered across the tops of thefour-foot waves and remained
such all the way to the northentrance of the Panama Canal.
Oh my.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Four-foot waves all the way.
Ow, I pinched myself.
Does it smell?
Ooh, is this one of thosethings?
So it's aged in the ocean.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
All right, does it smell?
Oh, is this one of those things?
So it's aged in the ocean, allright.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
so yeah, the the whole idea here is yes, if you
put your ear, I can hear theglass you can hear the bourbon
and also you might give yourselfa nice ear canal cleaning I
wonder, interesting oh oh itdoes smell.
Oh, it smells a little sweet.
There's a little sweetness onthe nose there.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Yeah.
So the whole thing around thisis that it's aged at sea and so
the voyage that we're readingabout here in the ship log tells
us about the I was going to sayit tells us about the log.
Does it tell us about the, theI was gonna say it tells us
about the log.
Does it tell us about?
the the log from the ship yeah,because no redundancies there
(03:51):
because of the way that theywrote the offshore it's whiskey
bits, where we'd have bits andwhiskey in the reverse order
traffic was light in the canalthat day, my my friends.
Is that what it says?
No, it doesn't.
It actually does say trafficwas light in the canal and while
the humidity was up, thetemperature held to the mid 80s.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
So would that actually do anything?
So what's the deal I mean forthe listener, because I
obviously know the deal iswhat's the gimmick?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
It's a gimmick.
Why don't you tell us?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
I feel like it's a gimmick Aged at sea to me.
Remember we talked about cremebrulee.
I want to taste creme brulee.
This I want to like.
I feel like it should tastesalty.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Well, the idea is that the barrels that sit in the
ship Are sloshing aroundthey're jostled to and fro,
uh-huh To and fro, on the bottomof this ship, this one, voyage
20.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
On Voyage 20.
Yeah, we made that clear at thebeginning.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
We now have them going south to the Panama Canal.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Okay, but doesn't something like the humidity or
the seawater?
I mean, shouldn't that?
Speaker 2 (05:08):
I don't know.
I mean certainly the humidityand the heat, right, you know.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Like what if you put the barrels in the water and
like dragged it along, kind oflike trolled?
Speaker 2 (05:20):
with the barrels.
I think it would keep it toocool.
I don't think the temperaturechanges would be there.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
That's a good point, yeah, so it does need to still
be hot.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
I mean it needs to be something.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Yeah, humid at least.
All right, you tasted it, I did, you took a sip, I did.
I'm just getting like not Well,it's a 90 proof, so it's not
overly like bam hitting you inthe face with the nose.
So the fumes coming off the,the ethanol fumes, not really
hitting you, but I did get itlike a sweet smell.
(05:52):
So I'm curious to see what ittastes like.
Oh yes, please tell me verylight oh that's burning a little
bit very light, mm-hmm, oh,that's burning a little bit.
And now, hmm, I don't detectany saltiness.
(06:17):
It's not very salty Salty snack, yeah, hmm, I have to try it
again.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Pulling away from the loss of Balboa and entering the
Pacific Ocean.
The typhoon season was alreadythree months underway, a season
unlike the Atlantic hurricaneseason that extends over a six
to seven month period.
Typhoons in the Pacific canoccur anytime throughout the
year.
Pacific.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
If this is the, United.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Are you really having a difficult time?
Speaker 1 (06:53):
If this is the United , this is Florida.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Florida, apparently, is Aroused.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
No, it's not aroused.
That's Florida.
Okay, so the Pacific's here,california yes, ah wait, are you
?
This is a really.
This is a thing.
See you learn things in school.
Wow, still is doing geography,so I was able to brush up all
(07:22):
right.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
So, uh, I'm wondering where the port was, cause it
doesn't actually say the port inwhich it probably in you goal
yeah port you go portugal.
I'm leaving.
Get it, dad joke loading.
We haven't done that in a while.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
I'm leaving I, you know, it's just there's not a
lot of depth of flavor, okay,just not a lot of depth.
It's, it's light, meaning itdoesn't there's not a lot of
complexity, but like not a lot.
I I don't mind it actually,though it is actually there's
not a lot of like that bitteraftertaste I'm not getting.
(08:03):
I'm just I'm getting just kindof a real nice light, almost as
if it was like a light breeze,you know, on the on the ocean
ocean voyage.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
20 had was headed south, you're still on the
equator.
You're really obsessed withthis and the storm activity is
was well to the north, crossingthe equator.
The season switched from springto autumn, seas were slight,
skies were clear, thetemperature remained a balmy 85
degrees and the ocean continuedto sparkle like liquid gold why
are they?
Speaker 1 (08:32):
no, it's blue, it's not even.
And just because you cross theequator doesn't mean it's fall
when it's still be.
I mean the toilet's flush inreverse.
No, no, that's true it is.
It's fall past the equator.
Yeah, why?
Because it's further from thesun.
Depends where the sun is at thetime.
(08:56):
You don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
It doesn't depend.
Do you know?
In Australia?
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Getting some corn husk.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
We're heading into summer right.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Yeah, here.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Australia is heading into winter.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Winter.
Yes, really yes.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Why?
Because of the sun.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Mr Sun Sun, mr Golden Sun, remember that song.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Nope, okay, all you have to do is some research.
I think you'll figure it out.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
I'm going to look it up.
I am stuck on the fact thattoilets flush the opposite way,
though With the exception of arough spot during our run
between Melbourne and Fremantle.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
A rough spot during our run between Melbourne and
Fremantle, voyage 20 had smoothsailing up and around the
Pacific Rim, back through theCaribbean, up the east coast of
the US and in and out of theNorth Atlantic, as we docked at
7.40 am in Savannah, that's inGeorgia.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Savannah.
So wait, they went below SouthAmerica, this thing traveled, or
they went through the PanamaCanal, Panama.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Canal, pacific Rim.
I don't know where that is.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
It's in Panama.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Okay, so they went through, but they were down
there and then into the AtlanticAll the way up.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Yeah, so they went all the way around the world.
I mean it's flat, so they wentacross the world.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Clearly you can't.
I mean obviously.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
So as we docked at 740 Amin Savannah.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Somebody had to write all this.
Do you think they have a guy onthe ship that just said they're
like I gotta?
It's the ship's log For thewhiskey we have to.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Yeah, they log every voyage.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
They're leaving some stuff out.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
They log the voyage At some point.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I wanna read, I wanna find a good one Like forget
this thing.
I wanna find a good one LikeI'm the captain, now you Forget
this thing.
I want to find a good one LikeI'm the captain, now you know at
some point, Like somebody hastaken over the ship.
How big do you think the shipis?
I don't know, I'm picturinglike a pirate ship.
I don't think it's that big.
No, you think it's just like alittle trolling.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
I mean, it's big enough to have a few barrels on
there.
I mean like they gotta make itworth their while well, let me
tell you this um, this is bottle129970, so 1200, and well, I
don't know, did they maybestarted at 129129?
(11:32):
Like 969 yeah like, and this isjust 970 of all of them yeah,
you know, I know I have no clueInteresting.
Maybe it started at 1299 andlike it's just bottle 70 and
this was the last one, who knows?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
I want to be the guy like driving that boat yeah, the
captain, yeah, that guy, theship captain yeah, I want to be
the captain now, yeah.
You could be, I could be.
We should figure out where andlike we should and just rent a
boat and just drive one, even ifit's just one barrel, just
drive it around, like hey, wedid it, we could log it, we'll
log it.
But I think we should try toget in some trouble, like have
(12:06):
some drama, like to me that's aboring read.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
It's like great, it's not done yet.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
You're talking about glistening ocean okay, cool.
Um you know what else glistens?
Anything that has reflectivesurfaces.
So congratulations.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
7 40 am in savannah.
Savannah, the sun had risenover a still and golden sea,
just as it had upon departure.
With the golden sea, steadytemperatures and gentle seas had
a mellowing effect on the crewand the bourbon of ocean voyage
20.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Oh, they finally mentioned the bour.
Good, I'm glad we got around tothat.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
And you can experience its golden glow, neat
or shimmering, over an ice cubeor two.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
I can tell you, I guarantee you, they did not
write golden glow in the shiplog.
I'm just going to throw thatout there.
I think that was added later.
I would have added it like Iwould have taken it seriously.
I would come on, guys,embellish a little bit like
nobody's.
Nobody knows.
It's like you the first mateand the captain, that's it right
(13:09):
.
That's the only people thatprobably be witness to any story
.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
So I'd be like dude albatross came out about the
professor and marianne that'strue, all those guys gilligan,
we crash landed.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
We saw jack sparrow and blackbeard the howls, yep,
whoever they are and are they,the rich people?
I don't know oh, is that fromgilligan?
And uh, and there was, you know, we fought tom hanks.
Uh, we picked him up, he was onan island.
Yeah, he had.
He had, you know, crash, landedon island and marooned out on a
(13:42):
dock, right A little thing hebuilt and we picked him up.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
So he was with us and then, unfortunately, luck has
it, the boat gets taken over,because he also was Captain
Phillips.
So our boat got taken over bypirates and yeah, pirates and
(14:06):
yeah.
And then, uh, thankfully though, uh, we, uh, we, he had a, a
cowboy hat and gun that he coulduse to to shoot at the bad guys
and uh, but at one point heturned into a kid, andy, no, uh,
he was he.
You know, he was big for awhile and then he went back to
his normal kid self and realizeit was just a kid all along.
Oh so okay but uh, yeah if itwasn't for that mangy mutt he
(14:27):
had with him, was it hooch orpooch or I?
Speaker 2 (14:31):
don't know what it was.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Yeah, yeah, no that's true, and Meg Ryan kept showing
up a lot.
I don't know what you'retalking about, so yeah, it was
good that's right.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
I just I, I remember the time that, right after that,
oh after that, right after thatwhen, um, when he started, he
started working for a recordlabel and he was out finding
bands.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Yeah, what was the thing that he did?
Speaker 2 (15:05):
It was a weird time.
What was the thing that he did,though?
Right, well, what he was tryingto do was he was trying to
catch Frank Abernathy.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Oh, right, right, right.
Yeah, Because you're like hey,that thing that you do, you're
like hey, if you can, can youcatch him?
Catch him, catch me, catch him.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Catch anybody, catch him, if you can.
That thing you do, yeah, thatthing you do.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
That thing you do.
Catch him, if you can.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
Woody, that's right.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
That's right.
Then we dropped him off at anairport.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
At an airport and he was like I don't speak.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
English.
I just wandered around Airport.
There's a lot of tom hanksmovies.
That's really what I'm gettingout of.
This is that there's a lot oftom hanks movies and they're all
gems.
Yeah, I was gonna sleepless inseattle.
Oh, now we're just gonna saythe names of the movies, we're
gonna describe them, or we'rejust like we've given up on no
but that's a perfect bridge towhat we're.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
But yeah, I know, I just joke blocked us.
But how many more tom hanksmovies?
What is your favorite tom hanksmovie?
Speaker 2 (16:03):
oh, man, big yeah, pick was one of my favorites.
I used to love that watching.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Yeah, I don't know if I would show my son, though,
because I'm pretty sure at onepoint you know he he, he, he, he
didn't.
There's a thing that happens, Idon't know that he did well, he
touches, you know he does.
He.
Let's just say he's graspingfor things I mean I, I would say
that I was probably a littleolder when I watched.
I think back then, though, it'slike our parents were like, hey,
(16:29):
whatever, but then like they'dbe like hey, you can't watch
power rangers.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
Did he play Sully?
Speaker 1 (17:13):
He did Sullenberger.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yeah, so the other thing that he did, he crashed a
plane.

up.
Eventually we all got on theplane and then he crashed it
right and I was like thanks,dude, like thanks a lot for
doing that, but thank you fordoing that because you saved us
so.
And we were in new york so hecan get his mail crucial, yeah,
crucial.
But then he had to take itovernight to seattle because he
just could not sleep Could notno.
(17:41):
Oh my gosh, we did it.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
We did it.
Did we do all of them?
I'm sure there's some in there.
Yes, we did, every single timewe had to have missed some.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Every Wes Anderson movie he's been in.
He's in all those.
Now he's been in a lot of those.
What's the?
It's not the men who stare atgoats, but it was a weird title,

Speaker 2 (18:56):
Yeah, I don't know, but like colin hanks I really
like yeah, I think you weretrying to that's.

Yeah, a real person.
I don't think Lewis Pullman.
Speaker 1 (19:04):

Speaker 1 (19:21):
Because wasn't he in American Pie, those movies,
wasn't he in no?
It was like a guy that lookslike him, though.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Yeah, but that was a little bit before.
But he was in a couple of thoseslapstick comedies as well.
As the awkward teenager,whatever, but he really came
into his own and Tom Hanks has alot of.
He's got a few kids with RitaWilson.
No, is that right?
Yeah, I didn't know that.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
He's got Chet.
No, yes, chet, chet Hanks, Ithink I might be wrong.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Wikipedia would know.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
I think it is, hey, wikipedia, oh, they don't.
They don't have that.
That's not a thing.
What do you think of this?
You didn't really say much,yeah, yeah, I to me.
I think it's cool, it's a coolstory, sort of um, I again would
say, well, first of all, Iwould say the Jefferson single
(20:19):
barrel, very, very old,amazingly better, like, so good.
So it's not like, oh, you know,knocking their brand and I'm
curious how close to the, themash bill that this is to that.
Yeah, you know what I mean.
Like, if, if, that, if they'reJefferson, um, jefferson reserve
(20:40):
, yeah, if they're reserve likesingle barrel, very small, like
or very old, is that good?
Is it really the difference ofputting on a boat and driving
around the world, or boatingaround the world, or sailing
around the world, versus sailing?
Speaker 2 (20:59):
I'm sailing bill murray.
I'm a sailor, I'm a sailor.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Um, or is it?
You know the difference betweenthat and being in the rick
house.
Wherever they are, where arethey?
Where is jefferson's reserve?
Let's look it up I thoughtyou'd never ask oh, oh, my
goodness.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
You shouldn't have asked.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
New York City Okay.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Really, really.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
That is bizarre, huh, I mean, is it MGP?
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Good question?
I don't think so Huh.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Interesting New York City.
Well, I mean the water in New.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
York is Okay it makes it.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Are you going to say more?
Look, when I was in New York.
When I was in New York, myhands, the water when I was in.
New York?
That's Harry the water.
When I was in New York.
That's Harry Carey.
What are we doing?
You started it?
No, when I was in New York.
No, the water.
It makes a big difference withthe bagels, bagels and the pizza
.
Oh, the pizza.
We should go to New Yorktonight.
(22:13):
Let's go right now.
Okay, Red Eye, Get some pizzaand come on back.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
I don't know.
Oh man, you think they do.
I don't know.
I feel like somebody's gonnaprobably drive there to new york
.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Yeah, it's like 17 hours isn't it.
It's not that bad because wedid we did.
The worst part is driving back.
That's true because the the waythe earth rotates my, actually,
it should be faster on the wayback, right, because you're
going with the earth, therotation.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
It's flat.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
What difference does it make?
Well, still a flat earth, can?
It slides throughout the galaxy.
Yeah, it's like this Slides.
Yeah, it's just sliding.
Yeah, it's like a Like takelike a plate.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Or a like take like a plate, yeah.
Or like this look here, this isit a coaster, this is earth.
Yep, that's what it does.
What, yeah?
So like if you're in a car, ifyou imagine this is on top of it
I could imagine or you couldactually just do it yeah, and
you're driving so, like, ifyou're driving like this, is you
here?
look so that everyone can seethis is your car.
This is the earth, the earthmoving throughout the galaxy.
If it's flat, then the earthmoving throughout the galaxy.
If it's flat, then it's movingthroughout the galaxy.
(23:22):
It's sliding like a hockey puck, but then you're driving that
way, right?
So then you're going like this,which means it's faster, right,
you're going to get home faster, but look, if you're going the
same direction, you're nevergoing to get there.
You can drive and drive anddrive all day.
You're gonna just be stuckright where you're at.
(23:43):
It's not a treadmill, that's,but that's how that works that's
science, phil, is it?
Speaker 2 (23:46):
I heard the flat earthers recently spent a lot of
money on like lasers and otherthings.
Um, to prove that they provedthemselves wrong and it
accidentally proved that it waswrong.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
Like nobody saw that.
Turn those off Idiot.
Wow, it reminds me of in Parksand Rec, that the alien crew
that every four years they thinkthat that lizard alien is going
to it's the end of the world.
They're like actually we got itwrong so we need to reschedule
for next year.
(24:21):
How about April 3rd?
And she's like oh, I have anopening on April 4th.
Yeah, I think that my mind wasmistaken.
It is actually supposed to beApril 4th.
Wait, april 4th.
You know, I have a recital thatday for my granddaughter, but I
think I remember, I don't knowthe the bad, the alien saying uh
(24:42):
no, it's actually april 7th.
Yes, april 7th looks good.
Oh, that's when the end theworld is.
It's around.
Your calendar got it perfect.
Can you imagine, though, if youjust if that's how it worked
it'd?
be horrible if you just likedrove and then like the earth,
you was moving and you wouldn'tgo anywhere.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
It would suck.
I don't think it's hard to evenimagine, because of how
terrible your experience is howstupid this is.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I mean, we went from Tom Hanks to I don't even know
to flat earthers, so we went todriving to New York.
Is Tom Hanks a Flat Earther?
That's the question we want toleave you with the listener,
Just the listener, yeah, becauseI'm pretty sure At this point,
(25:33):

Yeah, you know, it didn't hurt.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
I don't know that I would really.
I don't know, I don't know if Iwould put it in anything.
It's kind of watery.
It watered down a little bit.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Maybe, like it, spent a lot of time in the ocean.
Probably Well I feel weirdcheersing with an empty glass,
but you know not much to cheerfor.
I'm not a huge fan, it's okay,I probably wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
I'm glad that you bought it and I didn't.
Now, what are we going to dowith it?
No, hide it in the back.
I found one of the ones you hidback there.

No, it's like 18 oh, the eightdollar.
Speaker 2 (26:30):
The eight dollar, the one that we got from schnooks
yeah, yeah, yeah, schnooksbourbon, oh my god, it's just
called schnooks bourbon.

it.
It just says bourbon on it,just bourbon yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
And there's a sticker at the top that says Schnucks
Bought at Schnucks.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Good, glad we bought it there.
Paid, paid, paid in full.
Well, all right Well this isgood, yeah, I some good ones and

one of the top dogs.
Okay, for the next one, I'm notgonna change in a week, I'm
(27:05):
just gonna wear the same thing,I think, for next time I mean,
it depends on how warm it isoutside.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
But right now, if I look at the, if I look at the,
it's supposed to be 80s.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
It's gonna be me, so I probably will be wearing a
t-shirt.
You could just walk around with.
That probably age it a littlebit I'm not walking around with
this.
Okay, there's so much otherbourbon, let's say, put it, put
it back in the barrel, let itsit somewhere else for a while.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
