Welcome to the Danny Clinkscale, reasonably irreverent podcast, insightful and
witty commentary, probing interviews and detours from the beaten Path.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Welcome to Thursday Thursdays since and nonsense. We are back
on time, a couple in a row. We did have
to make accommodations, that's for sure. And when you hear this,
I will be in Utica, New York for an event.
That's where I worked for several years and they're doing
a reunion of the radio station I worked at. So
(00:39):
I'm gonna fly into Boston, see my mom, fly out
of Boston, see my mom again, and in between renekar
and go up to New York, go to the baseball,
all the fame, all kinds of good stuff. So we
have recorded this well in advance, not that well for
a couple of days, and we are rare and to go.
We got great beers again from Santa Fe Liquors, two
of our favorites, Discourse and Limitless. And I don't know
(01:01):
what Joe has in store. He hasn't given me any
real hint. But we are at arrived outdoors his fancy
spot on a beautiful table. We are surrounding here so
it might sound a little different, little ekowee or whatever,
But I'm not sure. Maybe you wouldn't even have noticed
if I hadn't said anything. But we're ready to have
(01:22):
some nonsense, to have some good beers, to have some fun.
That's what we do. We've got history, we've got sports,
we've got anger, we've got happiness. We've got it all
on thirsty thursdays since and nonsense that day.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
It's reasonably a reverend podcast after this.

fifty four twenty six.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
Integrity matter.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Anybody, Ah, you're doing my man on time.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Yes, you brought a discourse which I'm excited about.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yes, he's pouring it in a nice glass. I am
going commando, you know.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
And you know I had a very we're recording this
on Monday. I had a very good boy weekend.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
You know.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
We were full of kids, sports and activities and all
kinds of things, and so.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
You know, I didn't have a lot of beers this weekend.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Anny, So I'm looking forward to ask my man, Well,
I'm thirsty, aho.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Oh, typically brilliant, that is strongly endless Saturday. This is
really good as usual. We've got a double I PA
and it's strong, but there's a nice sweetness to it.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
The flavor's not subtle, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
I think this is good. I'm liking this. It sounds
like I'm liking this a little more than you you are,
I think I am. I didn't. I didn't get that
impact blast that you seem to have.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Second drink was better than the first.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Dren Okay, well, that's that's a good thing. That's usually
that's a good sign, because usually it's the opposite. I
took a good, healthy swig and my belly is warm.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Well I'm gonna go. I'm just gonna go seven even
many who low. Yeah, that's even the lowest ever for
this brewery.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I'm going to go seven to seven. Yeah, I don't
think it's quite I think we've probably had at least
four or five from Discourse better than this. But by
the way, I just want to mention I've gone to
Discourse a couple of times fairly recently on a Monday,
and one of the things it's fun about it is
that there's a guy selling vinyl records there on Monday.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
Yeah you got me one?
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Yeah, I got you one. And I also another time
of I've bought three that I haven't I haven't made
it over to open Spin Saturday in a couple of weeks,
so I've got three to get fixed up there from there.
So I kind of make it a point sometimes to
go on a Monday if I can to Discourse. It's
a ninety seventh. Yeah, Metcalf, cool building it is.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Speaking of music, Danny, that's our first fact check. Would
you like to get started with this fact check?
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Just get right into it all right, way we roll.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
You talked about a c DC being the best short
song rock and roll pump up music there is.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Yeah, I think that's you know, I'm sure. If somebody said, well,
what about this, I'd say sure, or what about like
Tom Petty wrote many good songs that are kind of
like that.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Yeah, but not in that I said.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
I think I said hard rock.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Yeah, I looked far and wide to try to prove
you wrong. Zz Top is best competitor I came up with,
and they are No.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
A CDC, so I know they're safe. I'm saying that.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Somebody might might bring up maybe Aerosmith or something. But
they didn't really write four minute pop, no oriented horns.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
Involved, and they didn't even write the most of those.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
No, they wrote all their material for a while.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
They wrote everything the whole fact check this. They wrote
everything up until Pump, then from Pump onto all the
eighties and nineties stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
They didn't Oh yeah, they didn't write much at all
of that.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
But Toys in the Attic is a great album.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
The first album is a very underrated album. Besides stream On,
I love several songs on that album a lot. One
of my favorite songs is now the title's gone right
out of my head, So maybe y'all think about it anyway.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
The way Street, Yeah, that's a great song. The early
stuff was more blues oriented.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
They were still on hard drugs, you know, that's that's
how you great.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
They were still on drugs, but they weren't way on drugs. Yeah,
I saw them one time in Wichita. I think I've
told this story before. I've told it before, but I
don't know if I've told it here. And I'm all
excited to take my friends some of them, you know, hey,
sure we'll go. So we drove. We were at ku
we drove all the way to Wichita, and they were awful.
(06:21):
All this was like it was like seventy seven. Wow,
it's earlier something like that, and they were really in
bad shape. They fought, they got into a Joe Perry
and Mike and Steven Talley get into a fight on stage.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
That's awesome, that's a great story.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
So but they were not good, and so we drove
all the way to Wichita to see that, to see
a concert in which Wet Willy was better. They were
the opening act. Oh, I don't know what wet Willie.
I think they had one minor hit or something, but
good enough to open a tour for Aerosmith. And they
(06:59):
were short lived. Of a southern rock boogie band, that.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Type of person concert was Aeros for concert.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Yeah, well, they were generally fabulous in concert. I saw
them in a high school gymnasium in nineteen seventy two. Wow,
they were just breaking out because like dreamond was a
hit in Boston several years before it was a hit nationally.
They re released it and that was when it was
(07:27):
a national hit, but it had been hit Boston band. Yeah,
they're from Boston.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Okay, I wonder you like them.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
I'm going to I almost make fun of you for that.
You actually saw them in concert and you didn't know they.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
Were from bands are from from Boston.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
That was nickname for a while.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
All right, all right, we talked about Chilean sea bass
last time. Dan.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
He asked that it's fake.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
Yeah, so I was partly right.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
Oh, the name Chilean sea bass is a fake name.
It was invented in nineteen seventy and I said, there
could be lots of different fish.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
That's not the case. They renamed the Patagonian.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Toothfish well to Chilean sea bass so that it would
sound more appetizing.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
That was a good move, right, That was a good move.
You know, it just sounds like you're if it was
on our menu. Would be like, nobody would want to
eat it because they'd be like, well, there's going to
be teeth exactly. He's not getting that toothfish.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
And I also said we were running out of fish,
which I thought is true, okay, and I told my kids,
you know, we're running out of fish, and it was
true ten short years ago. But they've done a ton
of work to bring fisheries back and I didn't even
know that. So, like tuna was almost completely gone and.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
They brought it back, my wife's lunch would be ruined.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
They brought it back due to better management. There is
something that is almost gone, though, and that's crap. So
if you love crab legs, it's high extinction.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
Warning on crabs.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Yeah, so Chinese Chinese, unless.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
You're somebody who just can put up with that imitation crab,
think it's.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
Crab crab with a K, no, thank you.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
It's actually not bad. It's just not really good.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
You know what that is? What it's fish?
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Yeah. It even says on the thing. It'll just say
process fish or something, yeah, which describes it right.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Like, I don't know, speaking of food, that's weird. We
talked about Captain Crunch last time. Danny, we did, and
I asked you about the crunchberries, and I thought maybe
crunchberries had come out when I was a kid, because
I remember, right, original Captain Crunch came out in nineteen
and sixty three.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
All right, crunchberries came out in sixty seven. Wow, So
I was wrong. But I do have a surprise for
you here. You cover me for okay.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
I imagine Joe is going to produce a box of
Captain Crunch crunchberries.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
That's right now, you had never had crunchberries.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
I'm gonna slide this over to you, so you want
me to want you to taste test.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
This cereal live on air Force here, Danny, I already
opened it so you can just reach in there.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Yeah, but this is this is a true test because
do people eat crunchberries just like this?
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Well, this is Captain Crunch with crunchberries.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
No, I know that, But that they eat it like
this like not as cereal with milk in it.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
Oh well, I mean I had someone the way over here.
It was delicious.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
You know that's good. It's not really not that sweet.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
It's not terribly sweet, that's right, it's not. Yeah. No,
the big complained with Captain crunches. It tears up the
inside of your mouth.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
You know, Well, somebody must have some weak teeth, because
I don't even have the greatest teeth. And I got
no problem, no problem, crunch berries as much of a
snack as I eat.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
Out of ten, what are you giving the crunch cru.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Crunch Oh, just as a little handful of a snack.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
Huh?
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Like there? Oh, I give that a solid eight. Yes,
that was good? All right, all right, I mean I
don't and I that's a good rating for me because
I don't like generally like sweet snacks. Like if I
was at a say it was party, and somebody just
decided for fun to have a bowl of crunchberries out there,
and you could you put them in a cup, and
I wouldn't do that. Well, I'd go for cheese or I.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
Don't know exactly what I'm gonna do with the rest
of his box of Captain crunch button.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
So do you eat breakfast? I don't remember if we're
talking about.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
Protein bar for breakfast hands, because I'm watching my weight, you.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Know, well, you know, and you certainly look good.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
That's right, Danny, that's right.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
He's got his Warren's Eva and glasses. On here and
I got to be able to see the screen man.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
What I would not eat is some Jimmies, which we
talked about last time, and you said that that's what
you called sprinkles back out east.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
No, it's called Jimmy's.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
Yeah, Jimmies.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Oh, Jimmy's out East. You're right, it's sprinkles.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Yeah, sprinkles here turns out sprinkles everywhere else except.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
The Boston Oh yeah, I'm sure of that.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
So yeah, just in your negular words is the only
place they're called Jimmy's.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
And that name came around in the nineteen.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Thirties because of rod shaped chocolate sprinkles.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
Okay, it's it's.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
It's exact, by the way, it's exactly the same thing.
It is exactly like sprinkles.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
So it's debated where it came from. But the thing
that I found that I most believe is that the
the people that make Peeps and Mike and Ike's right,
they wanted to sell more sprinkles, and so they branded
them Jimmies. And they were a regional company at the time,
and so it went along with Mike and Ikes.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
You know, Mike and I don't even remember Mike and
Ikes being around in Boston.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
Well that was they were a Boston company and they
came out with Jimmy's.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
That's unusual.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
So there you go.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
So when you would get sprinkles on your ice cream cone,
did they The way they would do it there was
they would get the ice cream cone and they would
put the ice cream in the cone and then they
would dip it in the jimmies.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
Dip it in the jimmies.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Yeah, they would have a thing they turn it upside
down and book, book, book book, tap it in the
jimmies and a.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Lot of jimmies.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Yeah, it would be covered with Jimmy's. I wasn't really
the biggest fan of Jimmy's. I kind of like my
ice cream plane.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Well, if you had too many Jimmies, you might gain
some weight, right, And I'm fascinated by you being able
to gain twenty pounds in twenty days or whatever.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
You say.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
You've done that at least a couple of times.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
You know what they would call that in bodybuilding U
circles what they call somebody who can put on weight
really fast.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
Steroids, they're called indo morphs.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
WE so you can introduce yourself HI on local celebrity
Danny Klingscale, I am an indo morph.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Well there you go. Well, if anybody has yet has
listened already or yet or they can to reconcilable differences,
this week they would find out that do you know
what you call somebody in their nineties because we watched
some special that Carl Reiner hosted about people in their.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
Nineties, he is an octogenarian. You're right, nineties would be.
I don't know, it's.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
A nano genarian. Wow, So if you're a nanogenarian.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Nano usually means small though.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Yeah, I don't know what any ano, but it is
a nanogenarian. Anyways, the thing we talked about just if
you many people have Pick and Shoes their podcasts. I
have people who exclusively listen to the music podcast. Some
people just like the profiles, some people just like listen
to reconcilable differences. Some people listen to all of them.
Thank you very much. But the uh name of the
(14:55):
documentary which was done in twenty seventeen and hosted by
Carl Reiner, and it was good because these several of
the people who were in their nineties in twenty seventeen
have passed, so it's a good thing that they did
the documentary because it was like Betty White, Oh, Norman Lear,
do you like Carl Reiner? Oh? I think he's fabulous.
(15:16):
Really Okay, I mean, but he's a straight man person
basically generally that's what he does. Well, anyway, the title
that just so people will know the title of the
documentary is if you're not in the obituaries, eat breakfast.
Speaker 4 (15:30):
Okay, yes, all right, Well.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
You know, I liked him as an actor or whatever,
but like he's just kind of when I see it
on TV shows, he's.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Just a lot.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
He never shuts up, right, Well, it's a yeah, well no,
he does shut up sometimes because he worked for years
as the straight man for I.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
Feel like now he's like, well now I'm going to
get my words out because I couldn't before, you know,
and he's.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
Just like he's also I get the feeling that Rob
Reyner likes himself. I'm Rob Ryer. I get that feeling.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
I like you, Zach. I think they're both confident people.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
I saw.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Now Rob Reiner next week this week September twelfth, Spinal
Tap two.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
Oh yeah, yeah, I'm excited about that.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
I'm excited too.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
You know, we're working our way back through the old SNLS,
and he hosted like the sixth episode of and Now
did a bunch of stand up.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
He didn't stand.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
Yeah, it was not very good.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I'm not surprised.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Actually, well, our final fact check shows you how smart
I am. We talked about showers, Danny, and I said
that showers go back to the Greeks and the Romans.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
Thought, I said, the Romans.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Yeah, you thought it was Romans like, but I said
something about the Roman bath.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
Yes, they had showers in the Roman baths. Now, the
Romans took it from the Greeks, so it's even older
than the Romans. And they would use an aqueduct fed
shower system, so there'd be showers on the ceiling, much
like like modern locker rooms where there'd.
Speaker 4 (16:59):
Be multiple shower heads. Right, so there's just a bunch
of naked Romans walking around showering, hanging out.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
They did that hanging out. It did you mean to
say hanging out? I don't think you did.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
No, it didn't.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
I am going to Greece next year.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
You were pretty close though that. The modern shower was
first invented in seventeen sixty seven in England, so you'd say,
eighteen hundred and seventeen sixty seven, it's pretty close. But
that's when and then they really got popular late in
the nineteenth century when we got you know, modern plumbing,
and that's when we also talked about what's more wasteful a.
Speaker 4 (17:35):
Shower of a bath.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Yeah, that's I was going to follow up and say that,
you know, I'm curious. I'm curious for the answer.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
So it depends on how long you show.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
You're right, obviously, right, So a ten minute shower equals
about twenty one gallons, okay, and a bath is generally
thirty five to fifty gallons.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Ten minute shower is a pretty good, long shot.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
Pretty hefty shower. I'm not for my teenagers, but but
it is for regular adults.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Right, So ten minute shower, you're using about half as
much water as you'd us in a bath, Danny, So
you're doing the earth favor whereas when I was littly
said saving the whales, you're saving the win nice.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Well, I'm We recently had a new toilet installed in
the bathroom that I used to shower in, and while
they were there, because they were fixing different things, they said, well,
this this tub over here, it doesn't drain very well,
and so they fixed the tub so now it drains
super fast.
Speaker 4 (18:34):
Now.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
The only downside of it is I used to like
to have a little bit of water in the bottom
of the so that I could, like, you know, there's
sort of some hairs or some debris water. No, no,
just splash it so that you could get some of
the debris off the wall.
Speaker 4 (18:49):
You got a lot of debris coming off now.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
But a couple of hairs, you know, off your head.
I hope we can see the difference.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
We two beers last time. Just to wrap this up,
we had the Heady Jams. We gave a seven point three, right,
and when then we have a minus next to the
seven point three.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Yeah, the beer advocate. We used to.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
Check our ratings and I found out that this is
not this is a voted on rating by users. Okay,
so this isn't the beer snobs of the world the
user ratings.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Yeah, but people who would drink this kind of beer
kind of beer snobs.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Usually, yes, for sure, like you. The Heady Jam's got
an eight point five from them.
Speaker 4 (19:34):
So they're idiots.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
They're beer idiots. They're not beer advocates, No, they're beer idiots.
Speaker 4 (19:42):
And the Great Lakes Brewing Octoberfest got an eight and
we gave it a seven point six, So we.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Liked the octopright in line with that, We're going to
have another Octoberfest here in a moment.
Speaker 4 (19:51):
Nice.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Speaking of idiots, how about punting the ball back to Missouri? Hum, Danny,
what do you think about that? I've been waiting two
days talk.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
To you about this? Lance Lifehold, what are you doing? Bro?
Speaker 3 (20:02):
I stood up and I looked at my son, and
I said, I went and started cooking dinner. I said,
We're not going to see the ball again. That was ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Well they didn't. They had almost six hundred yards of offense.
I don't. He even referenced the fact that he thought
it was going to be a controversial, you know, he said,
I knew that this could be something that we would
be talking about. He seemed to have some hesitation. I
don't quite know what his thought process was, But no,
(20:29):
I don't think it was good. But I will say
that that would have been as we've talked about before
in this podcast. If KU won this game, it would
have been a smash and gap, correct.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
But you know what they had. They had a big
lean in the first half, I mean.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
They did, but after that it was like all complete domination.
They couldn't run the You know what their rushing total
was today? Three? Wow? Three? Well in college they take off,
they take off a sass, but still it was three.
And then somebody had a twenty five d somebody drop
a pund or something. Did they fumble up snap? I
don't know the one guy who was listed as zero
(21:07):
carries minus twenty five.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
Well, the quarterback look good, I mean Daniel's.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
He looked Okay, there was a couple throws. It just
oh pretty spectactically he is, but he's just he's just
a little mistake prone.
Speaker 4 (21:25):
Yeah. No, he's not a great quarterback.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
But you know what, you could be Kansas State right now?
Speaker 3 (21:30):
Oh no kidding, they better, they better, Yeah, they better
beat Kansas State.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Well we'll see now. Yeah, but Kansas State is a
team that they'll probably recover and have a good season.
That's what I would say generally, that's what they've done.
We'll see though.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
This is this wasn't good. Only one game.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
That wasn't good. No, they could be in three. They
could be in three. So there's your football for today. Yeah,
you're American football. You know what? It was a good
weekend for for me to consume American football because for
the Premier League it was an international break. Yep, so
what's good about this? As I am about to embark
on my trip, my sister had texted me she's always
(22:10):
many games behind well because of the international break next Sunday,
this Sunday, we will be sitting down. I probably will
be watching the Chiefs game DVR late at night because
she has already said, are we going to watch a
bunch of soccer Sunday night?
Speaker 4 (22:28):
Nice?
Speaker 2 (22:28):
And I said, yes we are. We are after you watch?
Speaker 4 (22:31):
Did you watch the US men's national team? Down the line?
Speaker 2 (22:35):
I usually catch at least some, and yes I did.
They're not you know, it was not.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
It was not a band or sports weekend for me, Danny.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
No, when we're a year out, less than a year out,
they don't look they have a couple of players who
aren't playing that much. Although they got what's his name, Yeah,
but there's the left back. They got him back to
a little bit.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
There's all this.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
Talk about Oh no, you're talking about Robin Robinson. There's
always talk about Pochettino's like well, if they're not here,
they might not play. It's like, no, you're gonna play
Weston McKinney, like you're gonna play. You're gonna play like So,
don't even be talking like that. I mean, they look
they look terrible. They look terrible.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
It looked terrible.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Well, you know, all I was reading today about was
England was in had You know they're furious because they
played a terrible game against Angora. Oh they won well,
but anyway, so yes, so there's your football and your
international football. Who knows what we've got coming up next.
It's Thirsty Thursdays. It's sense and nonsense. You get the idea.
(23:39):
There's a new beer coming. We've had our powerful This
is called did we say it was called End of Saturday?
I don't even know if I did. I think I did. Okay,
and Joe didn't like it so much, so he's looking
forward to a octoberfest from Limitless. We'll see what it
is coming up next and more Thirsty Thursdays, Sense the Nonsense.

be hard, to practice opening beer cans. I guess I
don't know.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
We've had a lot of practice.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
I don't know that the best thing we have just
cracked open a limitless brewing marsin October.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
Fifth dus Mazena.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
There we go, So here we go.
Speaker 4 (25:02):
Look at the dark.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Yeah, a little bit color way dark.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
Joe.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
Joe does the glass so he gets to describe it.
Speaker 4 (25:13):
Oh, that's an October Fest. I don't know if you're
gonna like that.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
No I do, I'm not.
Speaker 4 (25:17):
Man.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
That is a welcome change from endless Saturday.
Speaker 4 (25:25):
You know what it might be. It's the weather change.
Speaker 5 (25:27):
For me.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
It's good, totally different, but it's.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Gotten cooler outside, and when it starts to get a
little bit cooler.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
I want this flavor profile and.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
You want a little muskier.
Speaker 4 (25:40):
It's a little muskier.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
Right, Yes, this is good. I like it. I'm gonna
give it the same grade I gave the other one.
And it's a beer that I'm not as fond of
a type type of beer I'm not as fond of,
but I think it's it's an excellent version of an
october Fest, and it's one a beer that leads toward brown,
(26:03):
which you don't.
Speaker 4 (26:04):
Not necessarily a favorite. I'm going seven point nine nine.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
There you go. You're just gonna barely dip under eighty.
You reserve that for spectacular correct or you're going to
say this is very good but not spectacling.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
Right, how about you?
Speaker 2 (26:23):
Like I said seven point seven.
Speaker 4 (26:25):
Seven point seven exact.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
The exact same for a different beer profile. Very nice.
Uh So did I mention on the last one that
my wife and I my wife has already booked a
cruise for next year.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
No?
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Yes, wow, and we're going on an ocean cruise this time,
still a smaller it's a Viking, so it's not a
gigantic boat.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
You're not going on the carnival cruise line. Where there's like,
have you seen the videos on the internet of.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
I know, I know somebody who is going on the
Is this the brand new ship you're talking about that
they have that there's sixteen thousand people on or something.
Speaker 4 (27:11):
Problems on those boats like bevior.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
O, right, I know, Well this this, this is the
exact opposite. And when we were having a discussion about
this with said friend and he said, you know, I'm
just the opposite of you. We're going with sixteen people, okay,
and the boat is it's it's going to be like
the launch of whatever this is. I don't know if
(27:34):
it's Carnival. I think it's Carnival. It's like a brand
new boat. Yeah, and it's going to be like five
thousand people. I think it's I think he said five thousand.
Speaker 4 (27:43):
It's crazy.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
I mean that has no appeal. Now we have this
one's a little bigger, so I think we have like
four hundred, which is nice. And we're going to Venice.
What Croatia whoa and Greece trying to play month and
they wow. Yeah. And the hook of the trip for
(28:06):
my wife is Croatia because she's always heard that it's
like spectacularly beautiful places on Earth.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
I've talked to multiple people, some people that studied over
there and stayed there.
Speaker 4 (28:17):
Yeah, Croatia is gorgeous in the the So.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
In Croatia they've got like I believe it's Croatia. They
have all of these palaces on the water, in.
Speaker 4 (28:28):
The in the.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
In the harbor or whatever, right, and I think they
even I'll check this next time in the fact check.
I think they recorded Game of Thrones there, like like
one of the famous cities, and Game of Thrones was
in Croatia because of the big spiral.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
I think they filmed do a lot of filming in
Croatia because I think it's one of those places like
Toronto where the film government thing is very, very friendly,
and so they use Croatia for a lot of things,
like they used Toronto for sliple cities, like they used
Toronto for New York a lot.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
Oh really yeah, but Atlanta had all of those and
I guess the film industry is pulled out of Atlanta
now because I read an article of it, because there
was all Atlanta was the new Hollywood or whatever, like
everybody was moving to Atlanta and now they're down like
sixty percent.
Speaker 4 (29:16):
But whatever, nobody cares.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
But the hook was Croatia. But I'll say this, having
been to Switzerland, I don't know how if it can
be topped. I mean, I have multiple sexual phrases I
could use right now for that I won't, but I
don't know how it could be better.
Speaker 4 (29:39):
Been to the like the heart of the Rockies. Have
you been to like Veil and have you been up there?
Speaker 2 (29:45):
That's I think those places are expected. Yeah, I mean
I haven't been to Veil, but I mean I've been
to you know, the Black Hills, which is fabulously beautiful. Yeah,
And like I said, I've said multiple times to people,
I'm so glad this year that I went on the
resumption or you know, redo of my trip to the
(30:09):
Black Hills before I went to Switzerland, because the Rockies
are like Walmart Switzerland.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
I mean, I take umbrage that I saw your pictures,
and I know pictures don't do anything justice, but I
will say that Vail is as gorgeous as it gets, right,
And now I've not been to Switzerland, right, so I
can't I can't compare them right.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Well, yes, and I haven't been to uh where's the
area in Canada? And yeah, you know, I've seen golf
courses there. For instance, right after we came back from
and let's make a pact not to use this as
a launching pad to talk about golf, but they played
(30:53):
a European Tour event in Switzerland right after we came back,
and they play at this course at Montana and it's unbelievable,
Like it's in in the Alps. Yeah, and these elevation drops.
I mean it's in a valley, but it's still got spectacular.
And then they're on the other side, so so you know,
(31:15):
they're showing that the pro golfer standing there in the
tea box and there's like a snowy mountain six thousand
feet above his head, you know.
Speaker 4 (31:23):
So yes, it's like a red sky and Vail I
gotta take you out there. Okay, we're not gonna talk
about golf. You know, Switzerland might be a great place
to take a honeymoon day. Okay, do you know where
the word honeymoon comes from? Oh?
Speaker 2 (31:35):
You found your phrases? I did good for you, Joe,
honey moon hmmm hmmm. I'm pretty good at ciphering these out.
Speaker 4 (31:46):
Usually you're not getting this one.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
No, I don't think so because I'm thinking that it's
it was developed a long time ago, and it probably
doesn't have any really, you know, it's fray. You know,
thought that are like I was talking about before.
Speaker 4 (32:02):
Huh No, no.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
No, I think a honey moon, you know, and a
lot of times, probably back then, the honeymoon was where
you had your first sexual encounter. Nothing, Okay, go.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
Ahead, in the sixteenth century, okay, right, Well, they would
give you when you were married, they would give you
a bottle of honey wine. Okay, and for the.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
For they and where are we?
Speaker 3 (32:28):
We are in England, right, We're in Europe and they
are your parents.
Speaker 4 (32:34):
Right, Once you were married, they would give you this,
this bottle of honey wine, and then you drank it
in conjunction with the phases of the moon. Right, and
it was supposed to help with fertility.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
Oh and so this was known as your honeymoon period
because you drank honey wine along with the phases of
the moon.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
Well you know that. Well did you know I am
a honeymoon baby? Yes, I am. Oh my goodness, oh
this is this This is this story.
Speaker 4 (33:08):
And you were also born three months premature and.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
This no, this story open, no close, I can't believe
you know you read my book, but which a long
time ago. This story opens my book, the first book,
and I'm writing a sequel now, and I'm by the
way on this trip. I'm really supposed to be grinding.
Speaker 4 (33:25):
Yea, how's the writing going?
Speaker 2 (33:26):
Pretty good, but not as fast as it should it
should be going. I'm a busy guy. Anyway. In the
first part of the book, there's a picture of me
in diapers as a baby, and I was supposed to
be born less than nine months after my parents were married.
They were but the fertility period for human being is
(33:48):
actually people think it's nine months. It's not exactly nine months.
It's like eight days shy of nine months. Okay, that's
what the actual period is. So clearly I was a honeymoon,
just a honeymoon. I think it was a honeymoon. Night baby.
So my mom, my mom, you know, this is nineteen Yeah,
(34:10):
she went to the doctor. Everybody knows how old him.
But I don't know why I'm doing this, but anyway,
it's funny. So my wife went to the doctor and
he shows you your son is going to be born
on July twenty eighth. She goes, no, no, that's not possible.
That is not possible. And he explains the circumstances and
(34:32):
she's like, she go, still, this is not good. You
know my mom is a proper Yeah, but she's not
really super proper. But it still was the candalist.
Speaker 4 (34:43):
Whatever.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
Yes, so little Danny decided to hang out for eight
extra day.
Speaker 4 (34:51):
There you go.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
I was born nine months to the day after my
parents were married.
Speaker 4 (34:57):
Wow, it's just decked your mother's on, or you hung out.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
That's exactly what I did for eight more days. I did.
Speaker 4 (35:04):
Well, you're not beating around the bush about that?
Speaker 2 (35:07):
Ooh ooh, where do you think that phrase comes from?
Speaker 4 (35:14):
Danny?
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Not from what we're just talking about, I bet, and
not from another phrase that we're probably thinking about. This
is podcast going in completely the wrong direction or the
right direction. Beaten around the bush? Oh God, all of
a sudden, like slavery popped into my head.
Speaker 4 (35:33):
No, it's the same time period, because that was crunched for.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Time around the bush. I'm not doing good today.
Speaker 3 (35:42):
Well, it makes sense because we're in a place that
caters to hunters, right right. Well, the phrase.
Speaker 4 (35:49):
Comes from hunters that would go hunt birds and if
they would chase the bird into the bush right. Then
the bird would escape, but they would beat around the
bush right to get the birds to fly out so
that they can shoot the birds. And that's where beat
around the bush came from.
Speaker 2 (36:08):
So beating around the bush was a successful endeavor. Yes,
we're beating the bush also could be successful.
Speaker 4 (36:22):
It could be.
Speaker 2 (36:23):
That's true.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
Well that is my that's my contribution to the podcast
the last thirty five minutes.
Speaker 4 (36:30):
So Danny, what do you got for me? Buddy? Let
me think, Oh, you know what, I have one more
thing for you.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
Well, there we go.
Speaker 4 (36:38):
I have to share something with you. Okay, the audience
if they care.
Speaker 3 (36:41):
My daughter freshman, she's a runner like you, right, like
I was like you were, although you ran on your.
Speaker 4 (36:47):
Previous on your vacation, yeah right, and you live to
tell about it.
Speaker 3 (36:53):
She's a freshman and had her first cross country meet and.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
No, it's cross country season, that's right.
Speaker 3 (37:00):
And the gal that is the best on the team.
She is a junior and she got third in state
last year, six a state, so good runner only beat
my daughter by eighteen seconds.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
That's pretty nice. First race and my daughter, so where
do they run? Because oftentimes I vowed we wouldn't talk
about golf. But many cross country events are run on
golf courses.
Speaker 4 (37:24):
Not around here. It's all these high schools now have
cross country.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
Oh everybody's fancy. Now they have actually things.
Speaker 4 (37:31):
Like ku yeah it's wild. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
So they have actually cross country.
Speaker 4 (37:35):
Course on campus. Yeah, like we ran up built in
high school on Saturday or campus.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
Yeah, they even call it campus.
Speaker 4 (37:43):
They do.
Speaker 2 (37:45):
They did not call my high school campus.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
Well, these are some big although you went to a
huge high school as well, but yeah, these are some
big high schools.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
But basically we had a building in sports fields and
there wasn't no campus.
Speaker 3 (37:56):
But you think about like all these high schools are
built out in the suburbs.
Speaker 4 (37:59):
They're all built in the last twenty years.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
And when they were generally, when I think the high
schools around here are the big ones in Kansas City
were built, they were built in sort of the developing
areas where what's the one is it blue valley like
super Way you want to talk on the on the
way to Sycamore Ridge, Esoore. I avowed not to talk
(38:21):
about golf, but that was like nowhere land when they
built it. What is like a blue valley Southwest I
think that's right.
Speaker 4 (38:31):
But it is like like the junior college campus. It
is enormous. They have a great cross.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
Have you heard that they I think they did this
in conjunction with the See, we always think that we're
going to get to a dead end and it's never
going to happen. We're into a full podcast because our
brains are too active, especially when we have wonderful beers.
So I think it was in the conjunction with the
high start of the high school season. There were various
(39:00):
stories about this. A Texas school this year unveiled the
opening of their new sixty three million dollar high school
football field.
Speaker 4 (39:12):
Dude, So there was a.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Sixty three, There was like a fifty one. There was
one in Georgia that was like forty how do you
spend sixty three million? That they must have suites or
that stuff like wild, that's wild. I didn't read that right.
I remember even back in the day, and so now
this is like not even great for that time. But
(39:36):
the Mid Continent probably two thousand and seven, two thousand
and eight was when I was doing UMKC. Yeah, the
Mid Continent Basketball Tournament was held at a high school
basketball facility.
Speaker 4 (39:49):
Because it was so nice.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
It was in Oklahoma. It was in Tulsa, and it
was like a four thousand seat for high school, right,
but so okay, that was all right. But then I
got there and I was just wandering around doing some
work that the stadium it was Tulsa Edison or something
like that. I think the football stadium had twenty two
(40:14):
thousand seats. What the high school football?
Speaker 4 (40:20):
Wow, well, I was talking about we.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
Had I'll do it. This will be more humorous. When
I was you know, when I was in high school,
sports were kind of cool, but you know, it was
like post hippiatom and everything, and and you know, like
a lot of things maybe the kind of square things
were different. So we had the theater department was tiny.
(40:47):
That wasn't cool. But we had like this gigantic high school,
you know, like I my graduating class was almost seven hundred,
so they were like and the couple classes behind us
were bigger. So it's almost like three thousand people. And
at the football games, and football was was kind of
(41:08):
a big thing, but not so much really. We didn't
have homecoming. There was no homecoming. I didn't even know
what it was. We no homecoming, and our high school
marching band was so small that they didn't march because
they couldn't form.
Speaker 4 (41:28):
They couldn't make a formation.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
They couldn't make a formation, so they just sat in
the stands. They were like eighteen dudes who are actually
real good musicians whatever, and they're not going to go
out there in march.
Speaker 4 (41:41):
So oh my, sod no, no, I was, I was talking.
You know.
Speaker 3 (41:45):
Semino took over the Shanna Mission East football team a
couple of years ago, and so my son's playing football
in eighth grade and they're running high school the high
school offense, and they've taken that down to like the
sixth grade tackle, right, because we have friends that have
sixth grade.
Speaker 2 (41:59):
So they always find the same offense.
Speaker 4 (42:01):
Yeah, which is good, right, you have to know that.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
So I'm telling this to a work acquaintance the other
day at lunch and they're from the north Land, like
where football is like, yeah, football is wild, right, And
he's like, such a.
Speaker 2 (42:14):
Good phrase, the north Land. They're proud of it.
Speaker 4 (42:17):
Oh my my, they're like Platte County.
Speaker 3 (42:21):
And he's like, oh yeah, my third grader, we run
the high school offense with our third graders, like all
the way down to second and third grade. They're starting
to learn the language and run the plays and everything like.
It's that's crazy to me. Like it's crazy to me
that they're playing tackle second and third grade.
Speaker 2 (42:39):
But I think that's not good.
Speaker 4 (42:41):
It's wild.
Speaker 3 (42:42):
And it's also crazy to me because not that many
years ago, like football was going to die or whatever,
you know, because people worried.
Speaker 2 (42:48):
About We know, the country has changed and the world
world football is great. We all like football. But I
think even even even my buddy Stan Weber, the way
he like, he what I think is great about Stan.
He loves football more than anything that football. But he
(43:08):
even thinks he thinks that like all the practice rules
and everything like that they're that they're intelligent, they are
that they are good. And also I think that even
dedicated football people, many of them will still agree that
you shouldn't play tackle football till you're maybe at least
twelve or thirteen, at least right at least right you
(43:32):
can still play football and do all the football things.
Speaker 4 (43:36):
Yes, it's wild to me. It's wild to me. My
son didn't play.
Speaker 2 (43:39):
That's not you know what, that's the wrong word. It's bad.
You shouldn't play tackle football.
Speaker 3 (43:46):
Well, I'm not going to tell other people what to
do with their kids, okay, and I'm not going to
judge what they're doing with their kids. But I will
say that my kids, my kid didn't play tackle football
and second grade, and I can leave it at that.
But you know, some people are that way. In our
sixth grade our friends are.
Speaker 4 (44:05):
Just great kids housing Joe, Yeah, yeah they have.
Speaker 2 (44:09):
But they did they have when they're playing third grade football?
Do they have weight requirements?
Speaker 4 (44:15):
Well? See, that's that's what I was getting ready to
talk about. The sixth grade team.
Speaker 3 (44:18):
Though our friends have a son on you can't carry
the ball if you weigh more than one hundred and
twenty five pounds.
Speaker 4 (44:23):
I think it is. Well, that's good, except in the
last game they were in this they were beating the one,
and the other team brought this kid in.
Speaker 3 (44:31):
It's obviously one hundred and fifty pounds, and they just
steamroll them and beat them and the officials don't do
anything about it.
Speaker 4 (44:37):
The kids on the field bragging about.
Speaker 3 (44:38):
How I'm fifty, you know, like right there in front
of everybody, and they don't do anything about it.
Speaker 2 (44:45):
So like, well, even if they had the rules, can
the one to fifty guy play defense. Yeah, that's probably worse.
I mean, kids like eighty five pounds. It's run into
run into somebody twice as weight. Know, it's crazy, it
sounds that sounds uh not? Why why it for?
Speaker 4 (45:04):
It's a recipe for disaster. But whatever, you know, do
what you want to do right.
Speaker 2 (45:09):
Pones aren't formed, you know, lifelong maladies, lifelong brain injuries. Oh,
let's try to think of something else lighthearted to end on.
I don't know, I don't know. I'm traveling, traveling away
to the most one of the most beautiful places in
America for four months of the year.
Speaker 4 (45:28):
Yeah, and will it be fall up there? Will you
have the leaves change?
Speaker 2 (45:32):
I'm hoping. Let's fit scutting. This is veered in many ways,
including try always try to not talk too much about
golf or too much about politics. I don't know, because
of the state of the world right now, where we
are in the time frame of the leaves.
Speaker 5 (45:54):
Because if you were a kid, would it be if
the leaves have turned, which they probably would have about now,
my drive to and from New York would be one
of the most beautiful places to go.
Speaker 3 (46:10):
Yeah, I'm jealous because we talked about having me go
with you, which I would love to do. There's some
extenuating circumstances that are related to the fact.
Speaker 4 (46:16):
That we're here.
Speaker 2 (46:18):
At the time we're talking about Oh okay, it was
you share that. Yes, that that's anyway, the four hour
drive from Boston to upstate New York Syracuse area. For
you know, nobody knows where Utica is, but it's in
in the Syracuse area. It's near Cooperstown and it's basically
(46:41):
I ninety it's the mass Turnpike, and then in New
York State Thruway, which you used.
Speaker 3 (46:49):
To uh uh cheat and not give the full fair to.
Speaker 2 (46:55):
Oh yeah, I've done that. You tell that the last time. No,
it was like years ago I told that story, right, Yeah, anyway,
so that by the time quickly you go from what
I live in Framingham and then almost immediately you're into
you know, western Massachusetts, which is beautiful. It's that where
(47:15):
they have tangle wood in the music place where the
New York Symphony plays in the summertime. And then and
then it's close probably twenty five miles or thirty miles
south of this place where you can they actually build
these little towers and people go there to watch the foliage. Wow,
and you and like it's a tourist area, like people
(47:38):
just you know, there's cabins and everything else. And you
go there. I went there with watch my first first
wife when and there's a like a tower there one
time where you can see foliage from this little tower.
It's not a big tower. It's like fifty feet times.
I mean, I get it. I'm sure, but you can
see it in New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts. You
can see it all from the same.
Speaker 4 (48:00):
But I mean, I'm sure it's beautiful.
Speaker 2 (48:01):
Can you like foliage or as they stupidly call it here?
Sometimes I love it.
Speaker 4 (48:08):
I think it's beautiful. I'm just saying, can you imagine
pitching that vacation to your kids?
Speaker 2 (48:13):
Hey, kids, let's go. No, I would think I would
hope that people could go fishing or something else inside anyway,
so it's going to be a beautiful drive one way
or the other. I made that drive so many times
because at the first part of my first marriage, my
(48:34):
wife actually lived with my parents because she had a
job in Massachusetts and I lived in Utica. So I
used to drive like every other weekend or something. Back
is this when you had the gremlin, the ugo, the ugo,
I had worse than a gremlin, gremlin whatever. That would
have been high tone, freaking rolls Royce compared to the ugo. Yes,
(48:57):
it was when I had no not when I was
married her, because I had the Ugo in between.
Speaker 3 (49:03):
Oh yeah, that's when the crazy that I wanted to
kill you, that's when you had the Yugo.
Speaker 2 (49:08):
Yeah, I got that when when we got back together
with my bride who gave him my wonderful children, immediately
said that you goes out the baby blue, you go
with the kuperstick, you go go, you go exactly. That
is a perfect way to I'm going to tap. This
(49:29):
is too beautiful a table to do a slam Thursday Thursdays,
Sense and Nonsense.
