    Episode 103

    Drink of the day: Carbliss Vodka cocktail Black Cherry. The Fatties are back at the bar. We discuss our visit to Jay Rieger in Kansas City. It was nothing short of legendary. The whiskey and gin were delightful. Their vodka and Café Amaro are also worth a shoutout. The tasting experience was so good, we almost forgot to leave. We even chatted about a future whiskey and barbecue-sauce tasting, potentially featuring Josh and his barbecue sauce. Spoiler alert: I’m already salivating. In the world of news, a Marketplace buyer was found responsible for damaging a mirror during transport. I guess they should have checked their blind spots before loading up. We also dove into the wild world of AI risks, monitoring AI, and some mind-blowing research in Singapore using about 800,000 lab-grown human neurons in biological computing units. Talk about brain food! And let’s not forget the Taco Bell price increases—ouch! We’re eyeing Burger King, Chipotle, and Texas Tom’s as potential alternatives. Because who doesn’t love a good taco deal? Sports fans, brace yourselves! We debated NFL injuries, fantasy football, the Fat Four picks, Chiefs performance, Justin Herbert, the Packers, and early betting picks. It was like a sports buffet, and I was the kid with the biggest plate. Whether you’re a fantasy football fanatic or just love a good sports chat, this was the place to be.

    Episode 102

    In this episode, Blanco and Jonesy embark on a whirlwind tour of drink tasting, celebrity gossip, disappearing technology, sports updates, and a legal saga involving a San Francisco 49ers owner that sounds like it was pulled straight from a soap opera. First up, they bravely sampled Finnish Long Drink, a grapefruit concoction with zero sugar and 99 calories, which they rated between 2.5 and 3 out of 5—essentially the drink equivalent of a lukewarm hug. Next, they mourned the loss of voice actor Peter Cullen, actor Tim urry, and Dolly Parton, taking a moment to appreciate Parton’s Imagination Library and her timeless anthem “9 to 5,” which is probably still playing in every office break room. In a nostalgic trip down memory lane, they reminisced about obsolete relics like film canisters, paper tickets, and LimeWire, before diving into sports updates where the Kansas City Royals defied all odds by winning nine consecutive games despite being 11.5 games back—a feat that might just make them the underdog heroes of the baseball world. Finally, they teased future episodes about their favorite Netflix documentaries, planned a fantasy-football draft showdown, and promised to tackle the existential dread of AI safety and robots in a later episode, because why not end on a note that keeps you up at night?

    Episode 101

    Drink of the day Sunny D Vodka Seltzer Blanco and Jonesy, embarked on a culinary adventure that left us both questioning our life choices. We started with a Little Debbie fudge cream pies-it was about as exciting as watching paint dry. Seriously, it was like the ice cream equivalent of a dad joke—predictable and a little disappointing. But fear not, because we redeemed ourselves with the Tennessee Lightning cocktail, which was as electrifying as a squirrel on a power line. Between our snack escapades, we managed to squeeze in a chat about our jam-packed work schedules. It’s like we’re in a never-ending game of Tetris, trying to fit everything in without any pieces falling out. And speaking of falling out, we had a good laugh about AMC’s new dynamic pricing plan.  Our conversation took a hilarious turn when we shared personal stories, including one about a fart-induced movie theater evacuation. Yes, you heard that right. Who knew that a little gas could cause such chaos? We also debated bathroom design preferences, because why not? It’s not every day you get to discuss the aesthetics of a commode. We wrapped up the episode with a quick update on the NFL preseason. Patrick Mahomes is on fire, and we’re all here for it. But let’s not forget Kirk Cousins. We agreed he’s an above-average game manager, kind of like that friend who always shows up to the party but never brings the snacks. We debated his potential in a strong defense and running game, and surprisingly, he came out looking pretty good compared to Sam Darnold. The Chiefs’ offensive and defensive line was another hot topic. We praised defensive tackle Mr. Woods, who’s as solid as a rock, but we’re a bit worried about the ends and linebackers.  And then there’s the Buffalo Bills’ new stadium. We couldn’t help but criticize its lack of a roof, obstructed views, and small seating capacity. It’s like they designed it for a game of hide and seek, not football.

    Episode 100

    Drink of the day: On The Rocks, Margarita Jonesy and Blanco have somehow found their way back to the bar — shocking absolutely no one. The dynamic duo tackle the hard-hitting topics of body image, bullying, and the evolving nature of societal norms, because nothing pairs better with a cold drink than an existential crisis. They regale each other with hilarious stories about nudie magazines, meat raffles, and the soul-crushing price of gas — the holy trinity of middle-aged male grievances. From there, Jonesy and Blanco turn their razor-sharp expertise toward the NBA, declaring it a disaster with the kind of confidence only two guys on their third round can muster. Starbucks also takes a beating, as the boys question why anyone should pay $9 for a cup of coffee that tastes like it was brewed in a flip-flop. The conversation somehow evolves into a surprisingly lucid breakdown of global markets and regional gas price inconsistencies — a segment no one asked for but everyone secretly needed. The boys then pivot to sports, because of course they do. They dissect the Chiefs' 2023 schedule like seasoned analysts — noting eight prime-time games — before completely losing the plot over the Royals, whom they blame entirely on management, the players, the weather, and probably Starbucks.
