Whenever y'all listen to our podcast, we appreciate it because we see the numbers. We see the numbers. Gotta give a shout out to y'all. Thank y'all so much for uh tuning in every week. Uh, we had a very, very good podcast last week. I don't know if anybody caught it. Um I'm sure a couple of y'all did by the numbers, yeah. But uh by the numbers. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 1:52

I had people come up to like, did you did y'all actually watch it live? I'm like, hell yeah, we were watching it live.

SPEAKER_04 1:57

I hope you're gonna be like, I was like, I couldn't help it. It was so cool. Uh yeah, y'all go back and visit that episode. I think y'all will love it. I think it was uh worth um doing. And my ADD was kicking my ass that show. I knew I listened back. I listened back even away. I listened back and I was like, damn, I could not stay on one second. No, I was like, uh, I'm out here like in left field, just like, all right, Rome just Rome just swinging them back, he just hitting balls everywhere, and it's just like roaming them streets. Take a drink. Yeah, I was roaming them streets, and I listen. It's funny listening back to the episodes, and I'm like, oh, damn. I thought it was so fly at the time, you know what I mean? I thought it was so good. I was like, man, I was completely rambling. But if y'all want to check that episode, I would go back to last week. I think it was called uh what was last week's.

SPEAKER_02 2:48

We did Bonafride, that was uh Bonafride splashdown.

SPEAKER_04 2:53

I can't even remember last week. Give it up for me. All the people who have uh bad memories, I ain't the only one. I know I ain't the only one. Come on, give it up for me. And the rest of us who have horrible memories.

SPEAKER_02 3:06

And me. I mean, I'm here too. I can't remember shit. It's weird. I I consider myself a pretty smart person and I have the most random knowledge in my brain. Random knowledge. You asked me, did you ask me what I did on Monday? You know, after I got off of work. Nah, I couldn't tell you. I can't tell you.

SPEAKER_04 3:23

Nope. We you know, I think it's normal. I think it's a normal thing.

SPEAKER_02 3:29

It's actually why I doodle if you look at my notepad when I'm doing all this. It's constantly doodled on. Well, it's my way of I I think I think my brain works in a way that I have to have like multiple forms of input. Right. So if I'm listening to something, uh if I'm writing down at the same time whether it's writing down what the information is or just something, it's allowing me to concentrate on the thing that I needed. So you retain out this this nervous kind of energy with my hand because I'm a very kind of ADD person. I've got to have constant simulation.

SPEAKER_04 4:02

I was listening to that episode the the next morning and it went, it went up, and I'm like, man, I was really like just rambling. I could not, and the joke I wanted to tell just went way left. I don't even know how that ended. I was like, how did that actually end? I was like, ooh, that ended bad. It wasn't supposed to end that way. But anyway, check out uh check out that episode. Last week was uh it was one for the books. I love it. Um we're gonna we're gonna push forward, though, booze. We hear we're doing it this week. You know what I mean? We have uh we have a great show, I think, uh, for y'all this week.

SPEAKER_02 4:37

SPEAKER_04 4:39

Yeah, it's a really chill show. Wait, hold on. Let me let me uh let me run the theme music. All right. We're gonna talk about this week's show. You'll know what it is. This is Rome in the Streets. Ooh, I didn't I don't even know if I uh just to show you what I was talking about, I don't even know if I introduced you. Did I introduce you?

So what's up, Max? Welcome back. Welcome back to all of y'all for coming back this week. Uh, we did some fun shit this week. How was your week, booze? What's up?

SPEAKER_02 6:02

So far, so good. So far, so good. Yeah. Uh it was my weekend of work, so you know what that means. I'm just like, by the time Monday night hits, I'm just like, I'm just like, everything feels like jello, my feet hurt. Yes, indeed. I've I've self-diagnosed, I've self-diagnosed myself with a problem.

SPEAKER_04 6:22

I don't think it's self-diagnosed because you showed it to me and you showed me the S.

SPEAKER_02 6:26

Well, I mean, I diagnosed it, nobody. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 6:28

Um But is uh I think it's uh you know like a one of those rare things because I ain't alive, uh audience, and I know y'all listening. Don't tell nobody else, but I got bunions, right? So my feet are deformed, and I inherited them from my my dad, who's a lovely, lovely man. Give it up for my dad, yeah, both my parents. But dad, thanks. Thanks for the bunions. Thanks for the fucked up feet. Yeah, thanks for the fuck prank.

SPEAKER_02 6:56

So I think mine are partially from wearing heels a lot when I was uh younger in my like uh late teens, early twenties when I was going out a lot. And you know, this was this is when you used to dress cute 15 days, kind of uh this is when you used to dress cute to go out, you know what I mean? And you would like go to bourbon and dance on bourbon street till like the wee hours of the morning. Uh and we you were always in these like three to four inch heels. So I think the little bit of that and uh just being a bartender for 24 plus years, being on my feet, got this. I basically have just bone spurs on the bottom and the backs of my heels. So it's just like extremely painful, and it fucks with my Achilles tendon, so it's just like just constant pain all the time. Very painful.

SPEAKER_04 7:43

You show me the x-ray and I'm I'm not even joking. People, if you have any ailments like that, go get it checked out.

SPEAKER_02 7:49

I think our buddy Juliano, he's got a bone spur on his hip.

SPEAKER_04 7:52

Oh, and he plays soccer every Saturday. He was telling me about that.

SPEAKER_02 7:56

Shout out, Julian.

SPEAKER_04 7:57

Shout out Fuego, what up, Fuego? Time to be time to see all our supporters, all our supporters and supporters as well. But uh yeah, everybody with bone spurts. I got one in between my uh my ring uh toe and pinky toe.

SPEAKER_02 8:12

That's a weird place to have one.

SPEAKER_04 8:15

Like right in the middle, one sticks out right in the side. And if I wear two tight of shoes, they'll rub and my my toes will get inflamed. It's horrible. So yeah, shout out to bone spurts. Uh it look look your the your heel actually looks like because uh I raised chicken. So I've seen roosters and their spurs are like that's just how it look in the x-rays.

SPEAKER_02 8:39

So x-ray is like three or four years old, so God knows what it looks like today.

SPEAKER_04 8:44

Probably grew a little bit more. Probably, yeah. Man, get yourself checked out, whatever. What do you mean? We're gonna keep it moving. So Boo's being a little pain every now and again. Um, but you know, y'all uh what would help, I think, relieve the pain is if y'all went to our Instagram, if y'all went to our Buzz Sprout, checked out our uh shared the shared an episode, share episode with your friends. One of your favorite episodes that you like.

SPEAKER_02 9:10

Pick your favorite episode, go to a Buzz Sprout, get the link, and just send it to be like, I think you're really gonna like this restaurant. Let's go try this restaurant out. Get somebody else that hasn't seen us, don't know us, into it, and you know, maybe they'll like us, maybe they'll give us some good info.

SPEAKER_04 9:24

That'll make Boo's uh Spur happy. Come on. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 9:33

I think that's kind of the best way to really try to reach all these new people is you know, just share it figure out which your favorite episode episode was, or if you hit one of the restaurants that we went to and you really, really, really like it.

SPEAKER_04 9:44

And you agree with we what we say, yeah.

You know, you don't want to be the last one on board. Um we got a fire, fire, fire show. We went, uh we did something completely different in Southern New Orleans, I think, this week.

SPEAKER_02 11:40

It was kind of great.

SPEAKER_04 11:41

Yeah, it was like it was one of those things, and and Booze and I always, you know, we chat about um what we gonna do, the place we the place we where do you think we should go? And Booze always threw out a bunch of uh, you know, um options and shit. And and just randomly, a friend of ours uh just texts us out of the blue, like in a group text, like hey, what y'all doing this Thursday? You know, we're gonna hang out. We live in the marina, we live on a boat. I wanna I want to make a tie test. Let's do cocktails and we like, you know what? That's the food spot for this week. So y'all want to listen up later for that. Uh we'll talk a little bit more about it. You know how we do, we got a lot of other shit going on in the city. The city is lit right now.

SPEAKER_02 12:27

It is litty.

SPEAKER_04 12:28

It is lit right now. French quarterfest is in full sweater perfect weather. Come on now. French quarterfest, you're getting out there this weekend. I hope you had uh, I don't know if anybody went Thursday or Friday by the time you're listening to this. Um you still got a couple days to get in.

SPEAKER_02 12:46

I hope you had an absolutely phenomenal show, Kirk Dog.

SPEAKER_04 12:49

Yeah, uh he played Kirk Dog Lost by you rainbows on the Willow Dispensary stage on Friday. All right, big Kirk.

SPEAKER_02 12:57

So I hope he had a wonderful show. I know he's really excited about yeah, he's he's been doing a lot of behind the scenes stuff with the festival, and I know he's really been enjoying that. So uh he's he's got some good things going, and I'm really, really happy for him. So well, shout out Big Kirk Dog.

SPEAKER_04 13:12

What up, dog? Miss you, man. Um but uh yeah, man, a lot going on in the city. There are a lot of people. Do you think a lot of people travel in town for French Quarter Fest? So you think it's just like more of a lower.

SPEAKER_02 13:29

Yeah, I would. Yeah, I mean, that's the goal, right? Like the goal is uh you you should never you know aim to fall behind or decrease in size. You always want to try to growth is what you want, right?

SPEAKER_04 13:43

I hope they don't outgrow themselves too fast.

SPEAKER_02 13:45

Um, you know, though, I think that's kind of the great thing about this particular festival though, is there are what uh I think I counted 20, let's see, 19 stages throughout all of and that's including like little bars and and like you know, like the preservation halls of of the things. So there's uh there's like 19 different stages and venues. Um there's I think five or six different like major setups for food vendors where there's like like eight to twenty vendors in each one. So there's there's there's a lot of space. There is a lot of space. Um and and the great thing is it's it's all the really great classic uh foods of New Orleans that you kind of want to try. So if you really want to be a foodie in New Orleans, these are the festivals are the perfect time to do that. Yeah, absolutely. I just looked at a few of the vendors just for giggles earlier today. And I mean it literally ranges from like smoking honey, which is which is a Greek spot. Um you got Kushan King in Gentili right around the corner from you guys. Uh Agent Cage in Addis. Giacomo's is doing their alligator cheesecake out there. Like you're gonna have Plum Street snowballs.

SPEAKER_04 14:59

So here's my thing too, and and what I find when I go to French quarterfest, which is why I have to go every year before it really blows up. I uh if it does blow up, but um, is the reason that I can get the what is it, the oyster sack, the the three crawfish beignets from patents. The three from patents, right?

SPEAKER_02 15:18

That's a little slide L spot.

SPEAKER_04 15:20

Really? I of course give it up for patents. Man, I'm there every day. Right on Front Street. I'm not gonna be able to do that. And there's no line. When you go to Jazz Fest, there's a line for patents. Like you have to wait. You you can save yourself an hour of your life just going to French Quarter Fest to get the same thing. And it's a free festival. Yeah, and it's free. Shout out for being free.

SPEAKER_02 15:39

You just can't bring in food or drink.

SPEAKER_04 15:40

Yeah, it's free. I it but like we mentioned uh last week, it's like uh the French Quarter is you okay, booze?

SPEAKER_02 15:48

Yeah, no, that that seltzer went down the wrong pipe.

SPEAKER_04 15:51

Yeah, it's all good. Um, but the French Quarter itself is a vibe, you know what I mean? So it's like just being in the French quarters is romantic. It's like the archite architecture, the the uh the is a bunch of bars or different little offshoots, and like you can buy trinkets and souvenirs and all the art jewelry around whatever Jackson Square and the PBL, the outdoor artists that play. Man, shout out to all of that, man. I love this city so much.

SPEAKER_02 16:20

I got a friend Cassie that does art out there um and sells art. She sells art in Jackson Square every week. She's out there all the time. And uh I just love her. She actually is the one that redid the little the free little library at pals.

SPEAKER_04 16:34

Oh, yeah. So it's give it up for her. Cassie, you did that. We appreciate you. Um and it's always inspiring to see, you know, fresh over there.

SPEAKER_02 16:45

I think I'm gonna try and spend Sunday out there.

SPEAKER_04 16:46

I'm gonna just go.

SPEAKER_02 16:49

I'm gonna have to check the weather. I'm gonna try and get some time out there and just really kind of walk around and hope the foot doesn't feel like it's gonna break off.

SPEAKER_04 16:58

Well, you need the you need the uh the knee scooter thing with the knee on the scooter around the French quarter.

SPEAKER_02 17:04

You don't wanna lie, you don't want to look no, because I don't need it.

SPEAKER_04 17:08

Well, when you're in paint, you need it.

SPEAKER_02 17:11

I don't know. I'm a glutton. Well think about it.

SPEAKER_04 17:14

We can get you to motorize one. I don't know. We need something, we need electric bikes or something uh to get around in the French quarter. I don't even know about it. Not with that many people.

SPEAKER_02 17:23

Yeah, I don't think I don't think they're gonna be allowed because I know they're putting up like barricades and shit like that. You know, we can't bring coolers into the French quarter.

SPEAKER_04 17:32

Do not try to go down there and park and think you're gonna get anywhere.

SPEAKER_02 17:35

Take the streetcar, take the bus. It's a wonderful resource. It's mostly on time. Just get the app.

SPEAKER_04 17:42

Yeah. But man, give it up for Rita. Rita, I see you. Rita, I love me some Rita, man. Rita is a block away from my house. I can get to the quarters and you know, 30 minutes.

SPEAKER_02 17:55

If I had if I had just fixed my bike up, I would take it down there, but I need some tires.

SPEAKER_04 18:00

Our bikes keep getting stolen, so yeah.

SPEAKER_02 18:03

My mind's locked up up here.

SPEAKER_04 18:05

Even when it's locked up, it's like they cut the lock every single time. One of the blocks we had. So we've improved, but we haven't gotten bikes in a minute. Shell, we need to get some bikes. And shell, listening to this, uh, I hope you uh take a little note. And I hope y'all have y'all notepads and pins. But babe, we need bikes. Come on. Everybody with bikes feel lucky because Shell and ours got stolen. And you know what? We just never recovered and got new ones. We actually did get new ones, but they were they were uh what is it, battery powered, and then the batteries die, and so it's a mess. I just want a regular bike. Just give me a bike. Just give me a regular bike for 10 speed or 12 speed, whatever it is.

SPEAKER_02 18:46

That was what I did with my COVID check money. You know what I mean? We all got that little check. I got a new bike and I got a new mattress.

SPEAKER_04 18:52

Because God, oh new mattress. Ooh, that's fire. Ooh, good thing. Because that's a good way to spend your money.

SPEAKER_02 19:00

That's something I'm on every fucking day.

SPEAKER_04 19:04

Yeah, no. And we talk shit about like mattress places, it's like, man, that's a front, man. Nobody ever in there. But you know what?

SPEAKER_02 19:11

You gotta get a new one.

SPEAKER_04 19:12

You gotta get a new mattress every now and then. And uh man. Yeah. That's a weird one. Shout out to, yeah, that's a weird segue. I don't know where we went.

SPEAKER_02 19:22

That wasn't intentional.

SPEAKER_04 19:23

But yeah, you listening to the best podcast, so you already know how we're doing. We're talking about a bunch of different shit. We talk randomly about what's going on in the city. We uh we were mentioning the French Quarter Fest.

SPEAKER_02 19:34

Yeah, I wasn't just trying to I wanted to stick with that for a little bit.

SPEAKER_04 19:38

Um let's talk about it.

SPEAKER_02 19:39

I mean, I I I love the food, right? Like, that's it's always so good. I see these, I see this one guy, he goes around, he spends like, let's see how much food I can get for uh he's British or something, and so like for a hundred pounds or whatever. And I'm like, man, I really just want to do that. I want to just do that.

SPEAKER_04 19:56

I just want to go and see how much a hundred dollars it gets you.

SPEAKER_02 20:00

Yeah, and just like and I think you can do pretty okay, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_04 20:04

You're gonna get about three appetizers and maybe a couple of drinks.

SPEAKER_02 20:08

Um I mean, yeah, I mean, I think you could get a decent amount, and uh I I wouldn't like I'll get me and somebody else and just each a hundred bucks and just like eat the festival away. I think it'd be fun as shit.

SPEAKER_04 20:19

Take a drink, a be so good.

SPEAKER_02 20:23

But do you have other than the crawfish sack, like a favorite festival food, or is there something like you have to get? Because I'm like a mango freeze, like that's like a good cold treat. We all know I like a frozen treat.

SPEAKER_04 20:35

Yeah, you like frozen that's Elsa, right? That give it up for Elsa. Give me that mango freeze. No, but I mean, there's several things. That's a it's so much shit that's out there. I mean, I could do like, but I could get any of this any day of the week because I live here. So it's not really catered for me. I will go like if I have that one thing, that's uh the patents, the the triple play. The triple play, yeah. The triple play, whatever that killer fan. I'm telling you, if you never had it, you're gonna wait in line, you're gonna wait in line at Jazz Fest for at least 20 minutes to get this dish that I'm talking about. Um but uh I mean that's all I really like. I get that, and then maybe a drink, and then maybe a dessert. So you know, something sweet at the end.

SPEAKER_02 21:21

I gotta have me, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 21:22

Like I said, I've gotta have some kind of sweetness. I'm set. I don't I don't need to, I mean, but there's there's so many options that I'd rather go with the most um the option that I can't get every day. If patents is like unless I drive to Slide Hell, I'm not getting that.

SPEAKER_02 21:38

And you can't just go there and get it because it's not a restaurant. It's not a restaurant, it's like it's it's a catering business. Yeah, well, it's a catering business and and like an old plantation. It's not a plantation, but it's like an event center too, right? So they have weddings and special events and all these kinds of things.

SPEAKER_04 21:55

I was like, But you're saying it's built on a plan or old plant. No, but it just has that very old plan.

SPEAKER_02 22:00

Antiballum look to it. You know what I mean? It's on like a city block right on Front Street in Slidell. It's a beautiful place. It's it's just a bunch of little bitty rooms.

SPEAKER_04 22:10

I know where the recipe came from. Hey. Come on now. Um, shout out to Patents. I think it's a great uh thing they have going. And the fact that I could get it at French Quarterfest and Jazz Fest is like it's double for me. Because I'm getting it at both spots. I don't even care. Say what you want. Say what you want. I'm getting both at Jazz Fest and French Quarterfest, I'm getting the patents triple plate. So give it up for the triple plate.

SPEAKER_02 22:42

How uh how many days of Jazz Fest are you gonna try to hit this year?

SPEAKER_04 22:46

I don't know. I have as many as I can get into. I'm gonna figure that out. It's a little pricey, but yeah, it's a little pricey. Uh but I always um we always find ourselves in the good graces of folks that have favors that they pull. So we end up going at least one day, but I mean I go every day if I could. I go to all days.

SPEAKER_02 23:09

I just get so hot normally.

SPEAKER_04 23:11

All right, now booze. Talk about it.

SPEAKER_02 23:15

I need shade.

SPEAKER_04 23:18

Well, that's why you get the what is it? The light the brass pass. Brass pass. I'm not spending 20, something hundred dollars. You get a tent. It's worth at 2,700. Worth that tent? It's not worth the shade.

SPEAKER_02 23:31

No.

SPEAKER_04 23:32

No, you're just handing the sun. It melted.

SPEAKER_02 23:34

I'd rather bring an umbrella.

SPEAKER_04 23:36

Oh, so what's the deal with that? Like, is it a certain size umbrella you gotta get?

SPEAKER_02 23:40

I don't know. I don't know. I never pay attention to the rules.

SPEAKER_04 23:44

All I remember is like every year is a certain size umbrella, and you can't bring um it's a certain size chair, too. I think.

SPEAKER_02 23:55

Yeah, I think just like the typical folding chair. I don't think you can bring those big things.

SPEAKER_04 23:59

You can't bring one with a table on it. You can't bring one with a table or like a uh umbrella attached. Maybe you can bring the one with the umbrella attached to the chair. I don't know. It's so weird. You gotta check, uh, make sure y'all check before y'all go to Jazz Fest what kind of chair and all of that shit you can bring. Because they uh you see everybody, you see a lot of people get turned around because of their chair or their fucking umbrella is too big, or you know, you can't come out there and block the view.

SPEAKER_02 24:26

I feel like they feel like they join the experience all the time.

SPEAKER_04 24:30

Yeah, I think that's why though.

SPEAKER_02 24:37

So yeah, like a line, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 24:39

Yeah, there's a line that if you have a chair and you know, umbrella and all that shit, you sit like further back in the, you know, but you can still see the stage and whatnot. But it gives all the people who just want to stand or sit on the ground a chance to have the better view. So it's either a chair or a uh a better view. What are you going with? Chair or a better view?

SPEAKER_02 25:03

Better view.

SPEAKER_04 25:04

Oh, so I don't want to be I don't want to I don't know. You don't bring a chair to death?

SPEAKER_02 25:08

I never have. Because I'm just like I'll I'll cause I'll you know I'm not normally sedentary. You know what I mean? I'll be in one spot for 20, 30 minutes or whatever. Like, but I'm bouncing around a lot. I'm with people or I'm meeting other people and see that's why you got that rooster, the rooster foot, right?

Um we're about to hit that sunset. It's a peak golden hour. It's gonna be beautiful. They're y'all made us some wonderful uh cow soy soup, right?

SPEAKER_00 30:54

That's correct. Yeah, we made cow soy soup, it was one of our favorite dishes that we uh encountered during our three and a half uh month trip through Southeast Asia. So this is a northern soup from Thailand. In fact, cow soy just means northern soup. Nice.

SPEAKER_02 31:15

I mean, cow soy is definitely one of my favorite Thai cuisines. I mean, there's so many. Everything there is so packed with flavor. It's got so much umami and so much hang and it's everything all in one, and I think that's what makes this soup particularly delicious, and I can't wait to try yours, but like you said, you just spent three plus months touring Southeast Asia, um, and y'all live here on a boat, so y'all lives are very um on the move. And I it's such a wonderful thing to see people just.

SPEAKER_04 31:45

It's very inspiring, I would tell you that.

SPEAKER_02 31:47

Taking life by the balls and saying, you know, this is the one we got, we're gonna have fun with it. So this is our second like real big trip that y'all have done. What is what are your kind of takeaways from touring uh Southeast Asia for three and a half months?

SPEAKER_00 32:00

Oh my god. Well, first of all, the people everywhere we went Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, everybody was super cool. A lot of them were very excited to meet Westerners because we were making a point to try to go to a few places off the beaten path, and even when we were staying in like big urban centers, we would still make a point to go to the little hole-in-the-wall places where locals ate. They were also like very interested in um meeting Americans, so uh it was just a totally positive uh and what an inspiration.

SPEAKER_04 32:44

I'm sorry, Al, uh, but what an inspiration, man. Like when y'all were out of town and y'all I saw the dishes you and Aaron were eating, that inspired me to go and get fun, like at least two days a week. Or I was eating Thai food. I was eating something from uh Southeast Asia related, and I want to thank y'all for that inspiration. Um, and for the invite tonight once again. Absolutely. But so that that what part of the trip you have any funny stories about this uh this snake?

SPEAKER_02 33:14

I mean it I mean my I think my favorite one I've seen them is the the toilet snake.

SPEAKER_04 33:18

So yeah, the snake in the toilet was uh that's one for the book. Cheryl, what would you have what would you have done if a snake was in the toilet?

unknown 33:27

It's time to go.

SPEAKER_03 33:28

I'm ready to go.

SPEAKER_04 33:30

Yeah, no bathrooms.

SPEAKER_02 33:31

I can't do it.

SPEAKER_04 33:32

All right.

SPEAKER_02 33:33

Well, uh so tell tell us how you handled that.

SPEAKER_00 33:37

Uh well, I went in the bathroom and thank God I got there a minute later than I did, because if I had gotten there, or I guess a minute earlier than I did, because if I had gotten there a minute later, that snake would have been take a drink, yay! Yes, and some things.

SPEAKER_04 34:03

It would have had nowhere to go. Right, wow. Um, what an experience, but thank y'all again. We appreciate um y'all uh hosting us again and having this beautiful meal. I can't wait to try it. Any anything else we we leaving out that you guys want to say?

SPEAKER_00 34:18

Um so one funny thing was we went to so many different countries, and every time we were learning a few different phrases, uh just to ingratiate ourselves with the locals. But after a few countries, it got very confusing for us. And so one day when we were leaving our guest house, Erin greeted everybody with cow soy instead of the local phrase for good morning. And uh so she was basically just telling everybody northern soup. And I was like, they should have turned around and been like in a very northern soup.

SPEAKER_04 35:04

Yeah, just be polite about it. Well, that's an awesome story. I'm glad you guys are back because we get to hang out and see y'all again. Um, but what an inspiration. I uh what's the next trip? What y'all got planned next?

SPEAKER_00 35:16

Uh so we like to do a trip in the US. So we're gonna be doing some national parks in uh North Texas, Colorado, Idaho, and then make our way up to Glacier and then back down. And after that, who knows? We'll do another international.

SPEAKER_04 35:34

And you guys just did the Appalachian Trail as well, right? Like, that's what we did. Yes, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 35:39

Yeah, but the food is not as good in the backcountry. Give me Southeast Asia any day.

SPEAKER_02 35:46

I love tracking you guys. So when y'all did the Appalachian Trail, yeah, we tracked them on the map.

SPEAKER_04 35:51

We had it in at the bar, and it was just I still track you guys.

SPEAKER_02 35:54

Y'all are still I still have access to your air tag, so I know where y'all are all the time. So while they were on the trail, I was putting a pin in a map uh, you know, every about three or four days to see where they were. And um, when they got back, I actually had it framed and reset for them so they had it. And since they live on a sailboat, it obviously can't be on here, so I think you gave it to your mom.

SPEAKER_01 36:13

It is proudly displayed at my mother-in-law's house, and we visit it regularly. Thank you so much for such a gorgeous gift. Like every time I look at that, I'm like, we should be proud. And we walked a long way.

SPEAKER_04 36:25

Yeah, y'all did a lot.

SPEAKER_02 36:26

I got a I got a I got one of my my Monday nerds that uh started the Appalachian Trail, I think, um last Thursday or Friday.

SPEAKER_04 36:36

Congratulations, Monday nerd.

SPEAKER_02 36:38

Thank y'all for oh man, what a wonderful interview. They're just what a wonderful interview, man. Was it wasn't that so much fun?

SPEAKER_02 37:12

I I like I said, I just love them. Like, I love how they just kind of look at life and understand. And I try to, you know, they're very inspirational in how they do that and and prioritizing life experience and you know, making differences in other people's lives as opposed to just like accumulating shit and just having, you know, this this big place or this or that and the other. And it's just about pure love with them and just they're just the greatest. I absolutely love them.

SPEAKER_04 37:40

Uh I can't wait for y'all to see the pictures. Uh, we will post some uh pictures on our Instagram. Make sure you go to our Instagram. Shout out to Aaron and L again. That was a fantastic meal. Um yeah, I mean I think we said a lot in that in that interview. Yeah, okay. Yeah, they they have a lot going on and their inspiration for wanting to cook this meal. I don't know. I mean, uh Al uh kind of talked about it. He was like, well, traveling in South.

SPEAKER_02 38:09

I didn't realize they hadn't had a cow soy soup before because I mean they didn't come in.

SPEAKER_04 38:15

This is the thing to do. You invite people over to your crib and you don't you don't bounce around as much out there. You you invite people over, y'all make cocktails, make a dinner, yeah. You know, and then that's normal. The compare, give it up a compare. Oh, I got the hiccups. Just thinking about uh the d delicious food, but it wasn't, you know, spicy anything, but um it was it was a lovely meal. Uh I'm glad I got to experience that sunset with a beautiful sunset.

SPEAKER_02 38:47

I couldn't I couldn't stop telling him how delicious. I mean, I literally told him like six or seven times. Like, Al. I was like, this is really exceptional.

SPEAKER_04 38:57

Al is such a sweetheart. He is such a sweetheart that um I texted him because I know I love Thai food, right? Shell is not really into Thai food like that. I don't know why. I mean this is just like mind-boggling to me because she loves she loves like India or I don't know anything else, but Thai is just not her thing, right? So I'm like, uh, Al, uh, anyway, like, you know, we can make Shell like egg drop soup or something. And he was like, yeah, you want to bring me the eggs? And I, you know, I dropped the ball on that, Al, my bad. But uh, you picked the ball up and you you made a home run dunk, uh home run dunk touchdown with this egg drop soup that you made for Shell. It was one of a kind. Give it up for that egg drop soup. I mean, it had so many eggs in it, and um it just was perfect. She really enjoyed it. We had such a great night, a lot of laughs, a lot of uh so much tea was spilled. A lot of tea was spilled, like and it's good to have friends you can spill tea with.

SPEAKER_02 40:04

SPEAKER_04 40:27

SPEAKER_02 40:31

It's a whole uh No, I was gonna say me and Aaron have this little um trip planned, hopefully around September or so, maybe October, November. Probably hopefully September, October. We're literally literally gonna fly up to New York one morning. Okay, and go eat all the pickles and then fly home the same night. Maybe get a hotel pickling one night, but like it'll be a little bit more.

SPEAKER_04 40:54

They gonna need all the pickles in New York, give it up for them.

SPEAKER_02 40:57

That's our goal, just a one-quick trip.

SPEAKER_04 41:00

That was like four weeks ago. That's not the only pickles I got.

SPEAKER_04 41:40

SPEAKER_02 41:48

The baby culture does it.

SPEAKER_04 41:49

Baby culture. I love them though. They're good.

SPEAKER_02 41:52

I like to throw in a cottage boil because they're like the perfect little bite size where you get like three or four bites out of a little pickle.

SPEAKER_04 41:58

And then it adds to the the boil.

SPEAKER_02 42:00

Yeah, so you take the brine and you put it on the side, and then when you turn the fire off and you're letting everything soak, you just throw the pickles in with your other soak and veggies. Nice. And uh, so they sit in there for 30, 45 minutes, however long you need.

SPEAKER_04 42:12

Great. It's like the hot pickles in the bag of the big thing.

SPEAKER_02 42:15

They're warm, you know, they're warm and hot, but they're also got that awesome. So they get really salty because they're already naturally salty, but it's really good.

SPEAKER_04 42:24

All right, what you throw in your crawfish, bro? What do you throw in your crawfish, bro? I know like Brussels sprouts and pineapple and all of that is good.

SPEAKER_02 42:32

Pineapple is amazing.

SPEAKER_04 42:33

Little peppercinis. What's the little pepper? The banana peppers or pepper and chini. Yeah, they're the same thing. Um, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 42:39

I'll tell you some weird things we've thrown in.

SPEAKER_04 42:41

Peanuts.

SPEAKER_02 42:42

So, no, no, I love ball peanuts.

SPEAKER_04 42:44

But those in the crawfish ball, I ain't gonna lie, they smack. Well, that's how I normally like my my ball peanuts and the crawfish balls.

SPEAKER_02 42:51

My buddies who do bowl peanuts, they use their crawfish boil recipe before they're bowl peanuts. So, yeah. But yeah, but um so my old bar that I worked at for nearly or around 14 years in Slide El Natell's lounge, we used to like it was a very like humble bar, like everybody was, you know, grassroots, and the guys were hunters and fishermen and everything like that. And every Sunday they would be cooking in the bar. Whether it's crawfish season, they would go out, catch a sack of crawfish. They would go catch a cra a sack of crawfish that morning than the day before, come boil it up, but they'd always bring everything else. So our buddy Sean, he was like, he was the guy that was like getting dirty, getting the things. He would put frog legs in the crawfish boil. That I never even unbelievably delicious, dude.

SPEAKER_04 43:44

Y'all better make it to Louisiana. Come on.

SPEAKER_02 43:46

Frog legs in a crawfish boil was the most insane. So, like that and a ham. We did a ham in the crawfish boil one time. I've heard of that, yeah. Yeah, just put the whole fucking ham in the back.
