"Matt and Friends

Matt 1:01

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. We have liftoff.

Rob 1:17

Welcome to Matt and Friends Drink the Universe.

Matt 1:28

Hello everyone and welcome back to Matt and Friends. Drink the Universe. Today we are going to do Drinkables.

Rob 1:34

I have so many terrible flavors in my mouth right now. Three budget snacks.

Emma 1:38

It's got like this fireness to your tongue. It's not good guys.

Matt 1:42

That go with a centerpiece drink.

Rob 1:44

Oh, oh, don't drink it. Don't drink. What is with you guys gargling your food and beer.

Matt 1:49

If you're feeling brave you can dip it. Gonna hard pass on that. Just stop getting meat. My favorite part of that drop is Andy at the end saying I'm gonna hard pass on that.

Siobhan 1:59

Yeah Well, he was trying to remember what he was talking about when he heard that no, no, it was dipping the cookie that I suggested for the smoked beer, the vanilla.

Matt 2:11

I was just like let's dip that right inside.

Siobhan 2:13

Oh, that's right.

Matt 2:14

Yeah.

Emma 2:14

Boo Yikes Not good.

Matt 2:18

So once again we are going to be doing drinkables. Today the centerpiece drink is white claw and we have a variety pack with lime, black cherry, raspberry and ruby grapefruit. And, again keeping with the theme of this season, my friends have gone to gas stations at my request and they're also thrilled about it and have picked three items loosely to go with the flavor of white claw that they selected. So as we get started, I'm gonna have them introduce themselves first and then they will introduce the flavor of white claw that they brought along with their drinkables. So let's do introductions first, and I'm gonna go this way just to change it up.

Siobhan 2:54

Ooh, okay, well, hi Reigning champion of drinkables here.

Rob 2:58

Wow.

Siobhan 2:59

Siobhan, I'm back. I do not expect to win today, but I hope it's a good time and I have ruby grapefruit as the flavor.

Emma 3:07

Siobhan, you were always a good time. Yes, I'm here and I'm bringing the sweet, so let's get this going.

Matt 3:15

And what was your flavor?

Emma 3:17

Black cherry.

Matt 3:18

All right.

Rob 3:19

Hi everybody. It's Rob. This is the OG Drinkables team from season one.

Matt 3:24

I just like the point that, oh yeah, yes, yes.

Rob - Raspberry White Claw, Snacks from Wawa

Siobhan 3:25

Because, I didn't know that anybody's. Yeah, yeah, yeah, amazing.

Rob 3:28

So thrown it back. But this year we're at the gas stations and today my flavor is raspberry.

Matt 3:35

All right, and I am your host, matt, and my flavor today is natural lime, so we're going to see how that goes. Oh, I'm a little nervous.

Rob 3:45

Why so am I? I'll be honest. Well now, if you're nervous, I'm nervous. Well, I'm always nervous about what Matt's going to do.

Siobhan 3:51

Well, and he's never nervous, so I feel like he's nervous. Maybe that's a good thing, maybe it's the opposite.

Matt 3:56

Oh, it means we're totally going to win, okay, great. I do have a surprise. I do have a surprise for today, Well now I'm definitely nervous.

Rob 4:03

I'll be honest, I do not like white claw by itself. Personally, I'm not a big seltzer person, so I'm not really sure how today is going to go for me, pallet wise, but we'll see.

Emma 4:16

It means we're going to win. I know I'm ready this is like right up our alley.

Matt 4:20

There's a lot of trepidation. I'm not that nervous.

Rob 4:23

I think we should just jump right into it.

Siobhan 4:25

Well, there's no laws with claws.

Rob 4:28

Anybody mind if I get started.

Siobhan 4:30

Yes, all right, there's no laws with claws. There's no laws with claws, that's the thing.

Rob 4:35

No laws with the claws. You've never heard that.

Matt 4:37

I've never heard that he has now.

Siobhan 4:39

Well, yeah, just heard it right now as far as you know, I created it, so all right, good for me.

Matt 4:44

Five points to you, then Five points to Shabon indoor. Okay.

Rob 4:49

Well, it's a little puff. So, yes, my drinkable today. I'm going to call it a brunchable, and I went to Wawa. So what I'm going to do here is I'm going to make a little bit of a claw Mosa, as I'm going to call it a raspberry claw Mosa, because I'm not a huge fan of the claws by themselves. I thought maybe if I made some form of cocktail out of it, I could make it palatable for me.

Siobhan 5:21

I like this vibe. I'm going to dress up a little bit here. Actual breakfast.

Emma 5:25

I'm just going to get ready to eat it. And then he was like, actually looks decent.

Rob 5:30

Okay, I've cracked a claw Very aggressive sound, and now we're going to. We're going to go for a 50 50 mixture of claw and OJ. All right, yeah, half can white claw.

Siobhan 5:42

I'm going to match it with the same amount of juice 50, 50 is not usually my Mamosa, I know. No, no, no, I understand that.

Rob 5:53

But.

Emma 5:53

But what I don't want to do is completely lose the white claw.

Siobhan 5:58

Well right, oh, you won't. I bet raspberry is a pretty pungent flavor.

Emma 6:03

And I've not tested this beforehand, so God helps us, it smells good, I'll be honest, I'm actually really surprised you went to Wawa because, like Matt and I, live at Wawa. It's right across from our office.

Matt 6:12

From where we work.

Emma 6:14

Wawa was my jam. The amount of money I spent at Wawa is outrageous Actually, the amount of money I saved during COVID of not going to Wawa yeah that was my husband was like do you realize? Like all right.

Rob 6:25

So so, first of all, I would like to just point out that, while Shrivan is the reigning champion, so was Wawa, so it's true.

Siobhan 6:30

All right, I'm hoping for that.

Rob 6:32

All right, cheers, ladies and gents, let's check this out the raspberry claw.

Matt 6:40

Damn.

Siobhan 6:40

Delish, delish, yeah, yeah, that's really good, I hate you.

Emma 6:45

That's actually really good Stealers, well, sir.

Rob 6:48

Delicious.

Matt 6:51

And giving early one right off the bat. It's really good. Yeah, it's fantastic.

Rob 6:55

I'm going to go ahead and say I would drink this again, like outside. Of.

Emma 7:00

We're going to make you a white cloth. There we go.

Matt 7:03

This is the cocktail Rob will be known for.

Rob 7:06

So the full menu today is a slice of avocado toast which I have engineered with some sweet peppers, some chipotle sauce and a little bit of cheese sprinkle. Then we're going to move on to the sausage, egg and cheese croissant and then finish with the cherry cheese Danish. Now I have put a little packet of hot sauce on the side. I would recommend, or is my intent, that we put a little bit on the sausage, egg and cheese, because I'm looking to have some of the spiciness counteract the sweetness of the drink. So I would start with the avocado toast, if we will, all right.

Emma 7:44

You had me at avocado, got it.

Matt 7:46

And what's on top of this again?

Rob 7:48

It is sweet peppers a chipotle sauce, avocado and a little bit of Parmesan cheese.

Siobhan 7:53

Shocking. No one, I do not like avocado. I'm eating this, yes.

Emma 8:00

Oh, you don't like that Sorry.

Siobhan 8:03

I'm not. I haven't tried it yet. I don't want to.

Emma 8:05

I have avocado and like everything.

Matt 8:07

What don't you like about that, Matt? I think it's a texture thing with the peppers.

Siobhan 8:11

Oh, I think it's good.

Matt 8:12

I think it's quite quite delightful.

Discussion on Wawa and Food Pairings

Siobhan 8:14

I will say I do not mind for everyone that can't see, which is everyone but us. This is like spread avocado. It's not like chunks of avocado. That helps me out because the spread is taste better. It's a texture thing for me forever, but the peppers are actually good I think. Yeah, it's delicious. No, that's a nice start.

Matt 8:33

I'm going to be the lone dissenter then on this one. I don't know what it is, but it's just not doing it for me here.

Rob 8:39

Well, would you at least lick the chipotle sauce and then take a drink of this because I think that that is the magic of the avocado toast at the moment that little chipotle.

Siobhan 8:46

It's true, it's a nice little kick. I agree, yep, I think it's good yeah then take a sip.

Emma 8:53

It still has like a little fire. Okay, that does work. You see where I was trying to go. That does work.

Rob 8:57

Yeah, I'm sorry that textureally it's a nightmare for you.

Matt 8:58

No, that's okay. That's all right. All right, all right, we're going to Put this closure. I'm not an avocado fan either, so I do like chipotle though.

Rob 9:05

That's okay, that's different. All right, we're going to go on to the egg sandwich here. I'm putting a little hot sauce in mine. Feel free to two if you would like.

Emma 9:13

I have provided said packets this is like a regular breakfast for me. I have this all the time.

Siobhan 9:19

There you go. You may have bought a boat, Rob.

Rob 9:23

No, you know what it's okay.

Emma 9:25

I will say did you guys know that the Wawa downtown, Allentown in the Lehigh Valley is the highest grossing Wawa across?

Siobhan 9:35

The one near you guys right yeah, in the Lehigh Valley, the one on 15?.

Emma 9:39

Yeah, and they have no idea, because it's the only Wawa without a gas station that is like so profitable and they don't know why. But I will tell you, every time I'm there it is popping. It is like a party.

Matt 9:50

Yeah, no, it's our company sharing a parking lot with them. We pretty much keep them. I got an angry phone call from Jen one morning. I was standing in Wawa, ironically, and she was like do you have any idea how much money you spent at Wawa last month? I was like mm-mm. She was like you're pushing $150.

Emma 10:06

I don't want it.

Rob 10:07

Is that including gas? No, not gas, they don't even have a gas station.

Matt 10:11

It was me going there twice a day for food and snacks, and this was probably 10 years ago.

Siobhan 10:15

Those were really small, wawa it is very small.

Matt 10:18

Wawa, it's not big at all, but it's packed Every time you go in there.

Rob 10:21

We lived in Allentown, yeah, so Matt are you saying that size doesn't matter hey.

Siobhan 10:27

I mean sounds like it.

Rob 10:29

Speaking from experience.

Siobhan 10:30

I didn't bring up that it was a small Wawa.

Rob 10:31

When it comes to Wawa. Okay, that's fair.

Emma 10:34

He went there.

Rob 10:35

And I'll say the sizzly was just as good as I knew it was going to be.

Siobhan 10:37

It's pretty good. Yeah, I don't hate it.

Rob 10:39

It's a very standard offering from Wawa.

Siobhan 10:41

I think I prefer the first kind of more savory flavor than the second one, but that's just because, like a buttery savory flavor maybe isn't my favorite choice, but I still think it pairs well with the drink.

Matt 10:53

Thank you. I think it's interesting going from one to the other two because it's almost like walking around the 90 degree angle from where you started.

Emma 11:01

I have to say I really liked dipping the sandwich in hot sauce, which I did actually mix with ketchup.

Siobhan 11:07

I normally.

Emma 11:07

Yeah, I'm a ketchup girl. I'm gonna tell you everything in Canada, if we could throw some ketchup on it, we will and I'll definitely eat it. But I actually threw some hot sauce in there with the ketchup and the sandwich and then if you have that with the drink afterwards, it kind of still has the same thing as the avocado, where you have that like a little like kick and that spice and then the sweet of the drink so good.

Rob 11:31

Let's uh, let's move on to the last, the cherry cheese Danish. Now, this is this one. I'm a little concerned about the pairing because if it's too sweet I'm worried it'll get medicinal with the drink. But we're going to see no-transcript.

Siobhan 11:47

Hmm.

Matt 11:48

Well.

Emma 11:48

Danish is delicious. Let's see if it matches.

Siobhan 11:50

I love this Danish. I'm trying to create a bite over here.

Rob 11:55

Oh, my God, oh, ho, ho ho ho.

Emma 11:58

That's also really good, especially to end it on this. It's like you know, you have like two savories, and then a sweet, and then the. Is this cherry? The sauce? Yes, whatever this is, it's delicious.

Rob 12:12

I'm very pleased with how this worked out. This is, this was my intent. I'm glad that nothing other than texturally went wrong. This is a strong showing, thank you.

Matt 12:24

This is competing with the surprising meat. Thank you.

Siobhan 12:27

Yeah, this, I'm a fan of this. Yeah, this was good.

Matt 12:29

Yes, they're good things.

Rob 12:30

Does it make you say a wawa wee wa it could A punama wawa.

Matt 12:33

Yeah, yeah.

Emma 12:35

Absolutely. Did you go to wawa last time too, I?

Rob 12:38

did? No, she did, but she won last time. Yep.

Siobhan 12:41

So I see what you did there, even though Aaron like pulled out every mobile stop there ever was, making like full on food for us.

Matt 12:49

I'm going to give him a shout out.

Siobhan 12:50

He cooked a three course meal out of things from the mobile. It was a little nice. He made a fungo.

Rob 12:55

Yeah, he like bought like multiple ingredients and made real food. Yeah, what Like real food? I was shocked.

Siobhan 13:03

Yep, but I won. So, yeah, I voted for myself like a jerk. I won't do that today.

Emma - Black Cherry White Claw, Snacks from Exxon

Emma 13:12

No, that's hey that's how the game is played. You got to give yourself up as long as your gracious in defeat as well, you know oh, I am.

Siobhan 13:20

Yeah, I'm good with that. Yeah, I mean, if I had lost to Aaron, that would have been more than fine because he put so much effort into that. If I had lost to Matt, I would have been really mad though.

Matt 13:29

I hate how much I love this cocktail. I really do, like you, put orange juice.

Rob 13:36

I'll tell you what ma'am. Up until this morning, when I arrived at the wawa, my plan was to actually get a lemonade and make some kind of like a raspberry radler, like like a play on a lemonade cocktail. But then, when I started seeing my options for food, I was like, oh no, I want to do brunch. And what goes better with brunch than a mimosa? That's true.

Siobhan 13:58

So that's that's true, and I actually appreciate the orange juice flavor, maybe more than I would lemonade.

Rob 14:05

Yeah, I think the lemonade would have been maybe too sweet.

Siobhan 14:07

Sure.

Emma 14:08

I just think it was also good to start off like this, because it's just, it's breakfast, it just totes. You know you can't go wrong.

Rob 14:14

Well, good morning, good morning.

Siobhan 14:16

Thank you.

Rob 14:17

You're welcome.

Siobhan 14:17

Delicious.

Matt 14:19

Cheers, cheers, emma.

Emma 14:22

Okay, so we got some black cherries, so everybody get a can or we could all do another cup yeah. Let's thank you you look, I don't want to commit to a whole camp.

Rob 14:36

No, just a wee bit. For me, that'll do.

Matt 14:39

I'm going to put it in a baby, yeah girl. I'm putting it in a mat and friends yeti, yeti. Still waiting for that phone call, still waiting? Give me one day. The logo looks really good on your product, like you really need help selling at this point.

Emma 14:54

I'm honestly just going to take a whole can, because I love.

Rob 14:57

I'm still drinking my drink, by the way.

Siobhan 14:59

I know, yeah, I still have some.

Matt 15:02

So so full disclosure I love black, cherry, white claw.

Rob 15:05

I actually buy it in like 12 packs and keep it downstairs, because Matt is the most basic of bitches. It's true, it's okay, it's true, I'm surprised you didn't love that brunch.

Matt 15:18

It's a very basic bitch thing. I love a good Wawa breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, whenever it happens to be, I mean drinking this.

Emma 15:25

I just want to be like out of the pool, just like, yeah, chillaxing, yeah, you know, like my kids are wild, yeah, it kind of feels like we're baking in the sun in here once again. It's a little hot inside the starship today. I went to Exxon.

Rob 15:39

Take us on your journey.

Emma 15:42

And I wanted to kind of go all sweet with this which is very well. I approve yeah which is actually very interesting, because you went like very savory. And so yeah, I'm actually excited to go after you.

Siobhan 15:54

I'll be your sweet to your savory.

Emma 15:57

And yeah, it took me a little while I was walking around the Exxon looking super suspicious, picking up a lot of stuff, putting it back and to the point where my kids were like just make a decision, mom. But eventually I went with these strawberry wafers, which I was really surprised that they had. I love these. I did not know they had these at Exxon. And then I went with the wild berry skittles because I felt like the berry skittles with the black cherry, just keeping it wild. And then I also have vanilla dunkaroos. So feel free to.

Rob 16:33

I'm going to start off with a plain sip just to gauge what it is. I do not care for it Really, so here's the thing.

Siobhan 16:46

You don't like seltzer? No, well, that'll do it.

Rob 16:49

The initial taste where the black cherry is is fine, but then when the black cherry fades and you get that like seltzer flavor, like the flavor of carbonated water.

Siobhan 16:58

You just have to see you down and just pour seltzer down your face for like three hours and then you'll get over it.

Rob 17:05

But yeah, I don't know, it's just, there's like an aftertaste to it that I don't care for.

Matt 17:10

So you just proposed me waterboard Bert with seltzer. I'm sorry.

Siobhan 17:13

It's seltzer boarding. Thank you, yes. Okay, emma would like to take.

Rob 17:17

She wants to take us on a journey. People, I'm ready, okay, so?

Emma 17:20

let's get our wafers and let's go wait for first. So hopefully this will counteract that seltzer at the end. These are so good.

Rob 17:27

I mean I love these.

Emma 17:28

These remind me of growing up. I know right, yeah. They're actually really good.

Matt 17:33

It does add a layer of sweetness that does actually kill the seltzer taste on the back end. Yep, it certainly does.

Siobhan 17:39

Oh, that's great.

Rob 17:40

It certainly does Look at that Yep. And I actually think the strawberry flavor is blending well with the black cherry.

Siobhan 17:47

I agree, it is yeah, you always worry, like Too sweet.

Rob 17:50

Are you going to get something that's too sweet? I was worried about that.

Emma 17:52

Are you going to?

Rob 17:52

get something that reminds you of like Would you look at me.

Siobhan 17:55

When you said too sweet as a child, I didn't. I'm good, good, well done.

Matt 17:59

A good start.

Siobhan 18:00

You're just too sweet, Matt.

Matt 18:02

I felt I was being judged for my previous sweet on sweet on sweet assault on the taste buds.

Siobhan 18:06

I'm constantly judging you for that.

Rob 18:08

I'm just judging him.

Emma 18:10

That lucky charm for nothing.

Siobhan 18:11

We'll just live in my memory for the rest of my life.

Emma 18:15

And then grab some skittles.

Rob 18:17

Now a variety of colors and flavors. Do you want me to like One of each? Like what, what?

Emma 18:22

are we going to play? I got like a good five here in my hand.

Rob 18:25

I'm going to put all of them in my mouth.

Emma 18:27

Oh, yes, actually that sounds amazing. So you just taste all the rainbow and then get a good sip of that black cherry.

Rob 18:34

Hey, it's Pride month. I'm getting in on a rainbow.

Siobhan 18:38

It is proud of you.

Emma 18:40

I love these skittles. Honestly, I think the wild cherry, like the berries, is actually better than the regular flavor. I agree with that.

Matt 18:49

I think tropical is my favorite, except that there's a banana, which is gross, but other than that, I think we found two consecutive ways to kill the cider taste, or the cider taste, the seltzer taste on the back end.

Emma 18:59

Exactly and then go in for that step.

Siobhan 19:01

All right, this is a bit sweet for me, but I still like it. I'll be honest.

Rob 19:05

Maybe I've done too many once, but to me. Now, this just tastes like plain water.

Siobhan 19:10

I'm not getting any flavor out of this, I don't know Is it? It doesn't taste like crap, it's like you don't like something.

Emma 19:20

I would like drink this like on the go at the pool.

Siobhan 19:24

Oh, we took a turn.

Matt 19:26

Oh, something went wrong.

Siobhan 19:28

No no we took a turn.

Rob 19:30

This actually for me amplifies the seltzer tape taste at the very, very end at the very end?

Emma 19:35

It definitely. But, like I agree with Siobhan, that's totally like what we're here for.

Rob 19:40

Right. If you like it, you like it. We had a whole room of women. I'm not judging your choices based upon just the taste of the seltzer. Right it's. How well does it pair?

Siobhan 19:51

And fair enough. I mean, I can understand wanting to have a flavor in the thing that you're drinking.

Rob 19:56

Can I just tell you, you've taken me back.

Emma 19:58

The Dunker Room To 1997.

Matt 20:01

It was a simpler time.

Emma 20:03

I was shocked that they had these.

Rob 20:04

You know, I'm opening up my lunchbox. I'm waiting to see. Are we sharing?

Emma 20:08

Did I get the Dunker Room? Oh yeah, we are, siobhan, you and me, we are totally sharing.

Matt 20:11

You're waiting to steal some french fries off my damn lunch tray, like you did every day for three years.

Siobhan 20:16

He's not bitter at all.

Matt 20:18

The middle school lunch table.

Rob 20:19

In 97, I was still in elementary school, dude. So I will say I graduated from eighth grade and like 2000.

Siobhan 20:30

Oh my god, oh my god, this forever go, yeah, and also.

Matt 20:33

I can't do that earlier than that, oh god.

Siobhan 20:37

I graduated in 97. So bye. Hmm, gotta love it. Good dunk from eighth grade.

Matt 20:43

Oh, okay, I was like.

Siobhan 20:44

I was like no, you just said eighth grade.

Rob 20:46

That's why my mind melted there for a moment. I was like you graduate from high school.

Siobhan 20:50

You're like no, I'm just kidding.

Rob 20:52

What are you?

Matt 20:53

like no, I graduated high school in 2001 so she von spent 16 years getting her undergrad degree.

Rob 21:06

No no the pairing the pairing no, the Dunkeroo is delightful. I'll have some more of those after I kill this.

Matt 21:29

No, that was, since we're back in 97. That was the feeling on Nickelodeon when stick stickly came on to let you know that there Is now a commercial right to me stick, stickly stick, stickly, oh my god box, what something.

Siobhan 21:40

A three New York City, new York State, one oh one away. I remember that. Oh my god, wow, I have a punch bowl. You all know I mean people who are listening know that there it is just rain, man up in there. I don't know where it comes from, I don't know what's happening, it just comes out. It's what happens.

Matt 21:57

Nickelodeon like rain man. It's slime man. That's what that is.

Siobhan 22:00

Yeah, well, it's just all topics. Chris knows this well, I love you.

Emma 22:05

Shama.

Siobhan 22:07

I didn't. I did not dislike that because I like like a cream and a fruit. But yeah, I mean I thought this wasn't bad skittles. Maybe it was a little much for me, but other than that, those wafer cookies are everything.

Emma 22:20

So what I do really like about the Dunkeroo with this is just like the wafer. It kind of gives you a little crunch with the sweet. But I do think yeah, like even maybe just having the dunk instead of I don't know the crew, the route, it would be better because you're right, as soon as you throw in this icing, this cream, it just kills it.

Siobhan 22:44

Do you know, I remember too. I feel like I've had these dunk grooves in the last like year or two, because I did a wall walk trip and I was like, oh my god, like nostalgia. I bought a pack from Sam's Club and I know what being like sad, like I remember it being, like I thought the frosting Was creamier than like as a kid was creamier than it actually is, and it feels kind of like weird and oily now but I'm like I'm an adult and I notice ingredients. Now that's done.

Matt 23:10

Didn't come out of a top tier.

Siobhan 23:12

V&e's yeah like right like I'm not like you know. I just I mean, it's good, don't get me wrong, but it's just like just remember it's very nostalgic.

Siobhan - Ruby Grapefruit White Claw, Snacks from Sheetz and Others

Matt 23:22

It's very nostalgic, nostalgic and funny how your mind.

Emma 23:25

I will say though I literally was at the gas station and I even was begging the woman to go back in the back and look for more Dunkeroo can play things and I literally there was none. I was like I'll wait for you and she looked everywhere and I could only get these two and so alright, okay, I.

Siobhan 23:46

What do you also think?

Emma 23:47

if it would have been chocolate, because they did have Chocolate and I was kind of like chocolate with black cherry.

Siobhan 23:54

Covered cherry Could be that could have. I was going back and forth, but it's the same thing where it goes with the icing, I feel like I do.

Emma 24:01

I kind of agree with Siobhan where that it's just not what you remember it and is it? Going to pair well.

Siobhan 24:07

Yeah, so I'll. Spoiler alert there may be chocolate.

Emma 24:11

On this next journey. Chocolate on the horizon.

Matt 24:14

I will say this in the words of meatloaf two out of three ain't bad.

Siobhan 24:17

There you go, well done.

Matt 24:20

All right. So, siobhan, you are up next.

Siobhan 24:23

Okay, everybody. So as a reminder, I have ruby grapefruit as my white claw flavor, so I've decided to do a cocktail as well. But it is like double the alcohol, double the fun situation.

Siobhan 24:40

So I have made a claw hound, which is a take on a gray hound smells lovely gin and grapefruit, and so I have gin and I have Grapefruit juice that I have freshly squeezed from grapefruit slices from sheets. Like if I won against Aaron, I had to like step it up to a level that he might be proud of. So that's why I'm doing this.

Rob 25:09

That's okay, so then I touch here with the white claw. So okay, well, cheers let's see how it goes, all right.

Siobhan 25:16

That is delightful, yeah, yeah it's light, it's refreshing and there is mostly seltzer in this I will say I did not literally like top it and go like, yeah, it's adjacent to ruby grapefruit white claw, it's still in there.

Emma 25:30

I can. I was actually gonna say is how much.

Rob 25:33

Okay, I'm gonna let you know this I don't like gin.

Siobhan 25:36

Do you taste it?

Rob 25:37

a little bit interesting Well let's see how Like.

Siobhan 25:42

I knew you wouldn't like gin, but I can't sensitive palette. I. I was thinking about tequila for this morning and I was like that might be a little hard.

Rob 25:49

So I don't like to bring it on approachable it's totally fine. Good, it's totally fine. Okay, it's very refreshing still.

Siobhan 25:57

Yes, you definitely taste, though they after taste of grapefruit right and it's like grapefruit from a little jar that had sweetened water around it, like I'm very much getting that like.

Emma 26:08

So where we starting? Or was that just the last, like one in the box, and you were just like, oh Well, it's the last one in the box. Okay, I was gonna say I don't really see you, yep heads up.

Siobhan 26:17

I am. I am a ringer. I really love grapefruit toasts. To be completely honest, it may, other than lime, have been the one that I picked, mmm, but I was handed it because I am Standing sitting in for someone.

Matt 26:31

Yes, somebody else had a scheduling conflict at the last minute and I called Please. And she visited several gas stations.

Emma 26:42

Not one Wow the commitment.

Siobhan 26:45

I will say I had no idea that grapefruit juice was just no one's jam. The amount of like grapefruit fruit punch, raspberry, lemonade, ice tea, that which those are all delicious at gas stations. I was looking for grapefruit juice and like six or seven places.

Rob 27:03

You probably should have gone to the one that Aaron went to because he found like pina colada mix or whatever.

Matt 27:09

He stepped through a portal and went to a grocery store somewhere.

Siobhan 27:13

Which I went to a mobile and they had good stuff there. I'll be honest, interesting. But so do you eat your grapefruit with sugar? I don't eat citrus fruits because it's a texture issue.

Matt 27:24

So welcome to my life. Okay, okay, it's a good time. Can you tell us about your food. I can my sensitive palate. That was the title of this episode.

Siobhan 27:34

Yeah, I think that's a great one. Okay, so I have chosen pretty snacky things. Right, I didn't go with like meal items. I think that's probably good with the journey that we've been on so far. Okay, I have chosen Chex mix, so it's bold. Chex party mix, so it's like a garlicky onion, even though it's not really that bold. So starting with that would be great. You can choose whatever of the Chex mix. I tried to give everyone some of the things like the bagel chips and the pretzels.

Rob 27:59

I love Chex mix.

Siobhan 28:00

Yes, and I felt like bold was a little bit of a good choice, because if you salt the rim of a gray hound, it's called a salty dog. Oh, delicious drink bring it on.

Emma 28:11

So I love a good salt room, indeed delicious, hmm, I have to say, like trackmases like my go-to drunk food. It's so good.

Siobhan 28:19

Mm-hmm.

Rob 28:20

I like the pumpernickel pieces.

Siobhan 28:22

Are they good? Actually the regular bagel chips are doing everything.

Matt 28:30

Not to make a salt rim joke listen. The man showed.

Siobhan 28:37

So I went with bold, because regular traditional Chex Mix is very good, but it's not really kind of that real like punch of salt that I felt like would really work with this. Everyone has thoughts, it's fine.

Rob 28:49

The Chex Mix is delicious. The more I drink the cocktail, the more I don't like it.

Siobhan 28:53

Okay, well, I tried to help you out with this. You just need to refine your palate. Is really what we're saying?

Matt 28:58

I understand.

Siobhan 28:59

Just kidding.

Matt 29:00

I'm gonna be honest, the cocktail is not my favorite that I've had on the table this morning. Oh, but it's not bad.

Siobhan 29:07

It's great. Okay, I don't know if I drink that. I love how everyone liked it at the beginning and now, all of a sudden, you're all getting used to it.

Rob 29:13

I think I'm getting more into the gin flavor. Now, yeah, I can't, and then it's just taking me right out. There's not even that much gin in it, you guys.

Matt 29:19

I mean not that it takes much. If you don't like it to be fair, maybe I don't like grapefruit then you and I I don't know, I didn't drinkers, though I can taste the gin.

Siobhan 29:25

I mean, I can taste it, but it's not like overly I would have any sugar. Oh see, and the funny part is again, these are grapefruits that were in like sweet stuff, so like I didn't add any sugar. Well, and there's white claw in it y'all. White claw is pretty sweet, flavory, that's why.

Rob 29:43

Yeah, I mean I'll keep rocking it, but no that's fine, listen, I like it. And you know what?

Siobhan 29:48

I'll have a great time and y'all can just chill with your mullsus.

Rob 29:51

Where are we going?

Emma 29:52

next. I don't really feel like the two of them go together.

Siobhan 29:54

Oh, okay.

Emma 29:55

I'm like kind of getting two totally different flavors.

Siobhan 29:58

I mean that was part of the point, but yeah, that's cool, it's okay. Yeah, no, it's well-cold. So next, let's keep going on the journey.

Rob 30:06

See if it gets better, maybe it'll get worse.

Siobhan 30:08

I don't know.

Rob 30:09

We're gonna get off the rim and move to what.

Siobhan 30:11

The trail.

Rob 30:13

We have some trail mix. That was a literal tells. That was wonderful.

Siobhan 30:17

So this is like just a trail mix. I know nuts on this show have continuously been sort of underwhelming, but that might still be the trend. But this is like a mix of pecans, almonds, cashews. There's a little bit of like dried blueberry and cranberry in there.

Emma 30:35

So I'm here for it Because literally it took everything in me not to get some nuts for this show.

Siobhan 30:40

See, I had to fulfill the nut quota yeah.

Matt 30:43

Well, you know someone's gotta do it.

Emma 30:45

I know.

Siobhan 30:46

Somebody's got to. I figured, since I won, I had big nuts to fill, so I just did it.

Matt 30:53

They're not candied walnut in there.

Siobhan 30:55

They're not candied, they're just regular.

Rob 30:58

They're plain Good.

Siobhan 31:00

I don't know.

Rob 31:01

Yeah.

Siobhan 31:02

Chris made me get the trail mix because he thought nuts would be a good idea.

Emma 31:05

So if it's not, it's just all basically Get nuts.

Siobhan 31:07

It's true, yeah, okay.

Emma 31:09

I don't know.

Siobhan 31:11

Underwhelming feels like very wellmed, everyone's very wellmed.

Matt 31:13

No one is excited. I think that's a good way to put it Very middle of the road. That's fine, very middle of the road, I'll take that.

Siobhan 31:19

I'll take it instead of it being crap.

Rob 31:21

I mean so far we have had a writing this like egregiously disgusting today, hey, I'm up next.

Siobhan 31:26

I know right, Matt's last, so just wait. You said it out loud, Rob.

Rob 31:31

I've seen your offering and I'm actually hopeful. Yeah, that's good. Yeah, I'm hopeful for you, Okay.

Emma 31:37

I don't know if those two go together. Just nuts and nuts. I'm sorry, so what? Yeah, okay, I'm normally cheap.

Siobhan 31:44

I mean they don't really have like no, you should not just support me because I'm a female. If I made poor choices, it's really okay.

Matt 31:50

Drinkables give us the nuts. And drinkable take us the nuts away.

Siobhan 31:53

I also feel like coming back. I did not expect to win this, so it's a really fun. I'm just gonna have your beer after. Oh, I'm happy I'm here too as a ringer. So there's that. The last item is a chocolate fudge brownie.

Emma 32:07

Yes, so I feel like listen, I'm here for.

Siobhan 32:09

If we're gonna close it out strong. I'm hopeful that this is the case.

Rob 32:13

I'm getting here we go. Okay, the brownie, yes, it's very good from a gas station. Mm Love the texture of it. It's not dry.

Siobhan 32:26

Nope.

Rob 32:27

No.

Siobhan 32:27

Oh, I forgot. Did I say that I went to Turkey Hill? That's where I got all the food. Mm the food is from Turkey Hill. I love Turkey Hill, mm-hmm.

Emma 32:35

Turkey Hill. I scream the grapefruit. They got a lot of like brand stuff like Turkey Hill but you can not find anywhere else and they're so good.

Matt - Natural Lime White Claw, Snacks from 7-Eleven

Matt 32:42

And Ashavon was the last minute ringer. I did say to her you can gas station jump if you want, you can mix it up.

Siobhan 32:46

a little bit Jumped, I did.

Rob 32:48

Yes, yeah, well, I'm Turkey sheets.

Siobhan 32:52

Welmed.

Rob 32:53

Yeah.

Siobhan 32:54

I'm just gonna eat this Chex Mix because I love Chex.

Rob 32:56

I'm sorry, I'm just eating Chex Mix dude, I know it's really good.

Siobhan 32:59

It's really it's good.

Rob 33:00

The winner of today's drinkables is Chex Mix.

Emma 33:02

Well then, that's me, hooray, Just kidding I don't know, it's funny, you went with the Chex Mix because I was really thinking about combos. And because it's just such a gas station food and I love combos, but then I just really didn't know. I don't think they pair well, though with salsers, like I just personally can't.

Rob 33:23

Well, that's what separates you from that.

Siobhan 33:26

That's true. Yeah well Indeed.

Matt 33:28

Maybe should we.

Siobhan 33:29

Are we? Are we liming it up?

Rob 33:31

I think we're gonna lime it up and on that note, limeing it up, we're gonna swing around the table.

Siobhan 33:35

Okay, well, you know what, I'll take a realm.

Rob 33:37

To our host with the most. Yes, all right, we're gonna see what he's got going on. Yeah.

Matt 33:45

So I chose natural lime white claw here, and instead of going with one of these fancy mixed, I'm gonna try and put lipstick on a pig cocktails that's going on around my table, right?

Siobhan 33:56

now Listen. I was trying to help people out.

Matt 33:59

Yep, I am gonna go ahead and I'm gonna let the natural lime stand on its own.

Rob 34:04

Well, that's fine, but I would just like to have you know you enjoyed my cocktail. You ass hat.

Siobhan 34:10

His cocktail was also not lipstick on a pig, mine for sure was.

Matt 34:13

Okay, I'm trying to win here, so Well, I have to talk crap on my opponents, okay.

Rob 34:20

I just you won anything on your podcast yet.

Matt 34:24

I cannot confirm or deny that I've had any victories whatsoever.

Rob 34:28

Well, he runs it, but he could the one time that we included him with it, and he did not.

Matt 34:34

No, I crashed and burned pretty hard in that one too.

Siobhan 34:37

So that's okay. I mean, you know, hosting abilities don't always equal winning things.

Emma 34:43

And so also I need to ask did you pick the lime? Is that something you normally drink?

Matt 34:48

So no, the lime is not a flavor I normally drink, but I saw it as an option and decided for whatever reason.

Rob 34:54

I wanted a little bit of a right.

Matt 34:56

I wanted a little bit of a challenge, so I did it does I never thought about?

Rob 35:01

that All right. I'm going to try it by itself here real quick, all right.

Siobhan 35:04

I don't know why it's called natural lime that like is. I don't know why that's bothering me.

Matt 35:09

Could be unnatural lime why?

Rob 35:10

do they need to add that you know what it tastes like it, tastes like Sprite that's gone flat.

Siobhan 35:16

That's cause you're the yeah man, it's so funny. It kind of does, yeah, I know, but that's, I agree with you, right. A little bit it's gonna be in all women's. Though the flat thing is carbonate carbonation right, and you still have carbonation in there. But you know I'm harkening back to my journey through Seltzer as well.

Rob 35:33

What about Sprite? Like you ever go to like a movie theater or like back in the day when they had like the syrup machines? Right, and it would start to run out just a little bit. This tastes like it wanted to be Sprite at one point and it was like sorry, that's what all Seltzer is.

Siobhan 35:47

Have you ever heard people make the joke that LaCroix is just like if you took sparkling water and walked it through a field of like an orchard? That's what it's like. It's like a whisper of flavor. Like that's what they compare Seltzer to. So it's kind of like, yeah, it's but it's not trying to be soda, cause it's better than soda. Oh look, I did that.

Matt 36:05

I love that. Oh whisper, no, that's the joke that they say. So I'm gonna start us off what we got. I went to 7-Eleven yeah, hard transition, hard transition.

Rob 36:15

I love it, which I would like to let everybody know. We have confirmed there is gas.

Siobhan 36:19

It is a gas station.

Rob 36:20

It is it is.

Matt 36:21

I did call that out the last time. And here and in Florida. Thank you for this forth. Okay, so I found lemon cake. I'm sticking with my 7-Eleven pastries. Last time I found that delightful strawberry cheesecake and we're gonna hope we got a lemon lime thing going here.

Emma 36:38

Smells like plastic.

Matt 36:40

Yeah, I smelled it earlier and I I thought this was a Twinkie.

Emma 36:45

I was really excited. I was like Twinkie.

Siobhan 36:47

yes, I'm nervous.

Matt 36:53

I'll stop that. Together they're pretty good. No dude.

Siobhan 36:56

It tastes like plastic you cannot get it, not good?

Rob 37:00

It'll literally make me get that cheesecake wasn't bad the last time. Why don't I put the whole thing in my mouth? It's all in there now. Did I do it again? Oh my god.

Siobhan 37:10

Matt.

Rob 37:12

Matt, what was this stored in? Was it in a plastic container?

Siobhan 37:16

No, it tastes like not a container, it was like a piece. It was like saran, it's a trim wrap. It tastes like saran wrap. It's not a twinkie that had a lemon in it.

Rob 37:24

No, it tastes like you ever opened up, like a like a rubber made tub that's been sitting in your attic basement For like years and it had like an old pope or anything.

Siobhan 37:34

That's what it tastes like. It tastes like I'm eating a lemon candle.

Rob 37:38

Everything is in my mouth right now? Yes, and I don't know where to go with it, so I'm chipmunking the shit out of it.

Emma 37:45

Have some cells no and I'm not gonna lie, it's bright. The lime does not make a better lime help.

Siobhan 37:51

No, no, no, no, because it's fake lime.

Rob 37:56

I'm sorry.

Siobhan 37:56

It's natural, lime natural.

Rob 37:58

I mean at least remove. It's a plastic taste for my mouth for like a second.

Siobhan 38:02

I guess, if you were going for unnatural and natural, you hit it right in the middle of the bullseye. Yeah, so Yikes. Well, we're off to a great start, okay.

Matt 38:14

This is great.

Rob 38:15

So next up, I got it down I got it Amazing, proud of you.

Emma 38:20

Proud of you. Yeah, I don't think I could finish it.

Siobhan 38:23

Oh, no, please do not Rob just made a grave mistake.

Matt 38:27

Okay, emma puts the whole fork. No okay, so let's forget that ever happened the next sure I can, not sure I can then I had such high hopes. The next thing that I prepared, I was shocked to find that I could. Actually, 7-eleven had all the ingredients for one of the things that I tend to make and take to parties for my friends and has gotten rave reviews Overall by who?

Emma 38:55

yeah, I don't know I.

Matt 38:57

Used to. Like you, I really did and still do. I saved you in this episode you, you did, and so what I prepared was some buffalo chicken dip, comprised of some good chicken in a can some ranch Words don't go together Some Frank's red hot, some shredded oh my gosh, you're so me not shredded chicken.

Siobhan 39:24

We all know that you lost me, nope.

Matt 39:26

Oh sorry, chicken ranch, ranch dressing and shredded cheese on top, some shredded cheddar on top, and this is the Same recipe that I got from a dear friend of mine, shelly's, who was on an earlier on the mini episode with me when we drank ebbcott she used to make this for us back in college was absolutely phenomenal back then. I still believe it's phenomenal now, despite what some of the it's all about what you like.

Rob 39:52

Listen You're you're wind up is way too long. I'm going to tell you that it's also on.

Emma 39:58

Not canned chicken.

Matt 40:00

It's also on a taste of lime chip from Totinos.

Emma 40:05

I do love a lime chip.

Matt 40:07

Yeah, they're not the Totino's scoops.

Siobhan 40:08

He's going in. It tastes like what you, matt, just dropped everything on the ground.

Matt 40:14

It's all right, we're good at my pants. Caught it, we're fine.

Siobhan 40:16

Okay, it's delicious. It is well, I'm not just giving it back, I love a lot of chicken.

Emma 40:23

Yeah, I'm embarrassed when I go to parties because I will get a whole plate of this and I'll eat it all and I don't.

Siobhan 40:28

I don't Care if everybody noticed that I just finished. It can chicken the next time.

Emma 40:34

I just your head when I think about it.

Rob 40:37

I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and go in for another chip with it on, because the first chip still tasted like that Horrid lemon cake.

Siobhan 40:43

Wait, wait, wait. Can I rewind for a sec?

Matt 40:47

Can I?

Siobhan 40:47

give. Can I give Matt a cosmic chug for his plastic Lemon cake? Oh, deserved. We haven't had one yet. Cosmic chug embedded.

Rob 41:03

Chug away, my friend, that's a lot of lime.

Siobhan 41:06

Lime, it's very natural.

Matt 41:08

Mm-hmm, there he is there he is man.

Rob 41:14

That might be the first time you actually completed a full cosmic chug this entire run.

Emma 41:22

Yes, to be fair all right, I.

Siobhan 41:26

Like I listen, this is not bad.

Rob 41:30

No, it's not.

Siobhan 41:30

I like this yes.

Matt 41:32

Yes.

Rob 41:33

This is this may be, dare I say, the best thing Matt's done for any drinkable yes. I can't believe you made this, I know it's very Like I'm no, my wife no and actually her.

Siobhan 41:46

I'm really so it's it's chicken cream cheese.

Matt 41:52

It's chicken cream cheese ranch Frank's red hot and Shredded cheese on the top. Can I ask?

Rob 41:58

and I hope the answer is yes. Did you just get like little sides of like Philadelphia cream cheese that, like you, would normally spread on a bagel, or did they actually have like a full block? Okay? I need to know because I think, I think it'd be hilarious if he just got like 18 little sides of cream cheese and like scooping out.

Matt 42:16

So I took a couple liberties when I made this. What? It's coming out so as I walked around 7-eleven, they had little packets of cream cheese. They had Cheddar, cheddar cheese sticks and some shredded cheese. They had little things of cream cheese, but instead of buying all of them and Making an amalgamation, I happen to stop a giant afterwards.

Siobhan 42:42

To save some Little one. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's like immediate disqualification.

Emma 42:53

No, you're crappy lost.

Siobhan 42:58

It's a DQ. Yeah, it's not a DQ, it's a DQ, it's the same ingredients and I was saving money.

Matt 43:03

It was this.

Siobhan 43:05

E equals MC Hammer we talkin about numbers, listen we talkin about a DQ.

Rob 43:12

No, we talkin about breaking the rules, that's right, I knew I didn't break the rules. You did, I just bought in bulk elsewhere.

Matt 43:20

Yes, remember when she went to Wegmans when we were supposed to go to a dollar store you went to a grocery store.

Rob 43:26

That's what Wegmans is Listen.

Matt 43:28

But it was available and verified as available in the gas station.

Emma 43:31

But that's not the no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Stop myself, that's not the play. That's not the play.

Siobhan 43:37

From getting ingredients at Wegmans. You know if I didn't question this and I didn't even know to question this.

Rob 43:41

No, Emma questioned it.

Siobhan 43:43

She was asking what the ingredients were and you asked. So it's an assist, that's what I'm saying.

Rob 43:48

Well done, cheers to you.

Siobhan 43:50

Cheers to the both of you for snooping that out.

Emma 43:52

I knew either a wife or something had to, you know, because this is just too good, that's right.

Siobhan 43:57

Sniffing it out, you guys smell something. I smell some bullshit. We should get a glass. We should get a glass.

Rob 44:02

Crap you have built. Listen, I'm taking it away. It's a chicken dipper, blinds. I'm taking it away Because Listen, listen, listen, listen. It's so good though it's a blinds, it's so good though.

Siobhan 44:13

She's a deep idiot. It's lying test about the chicken quality.

Rob 44:18

It's lying test about where you got the ingredients. There were two ingredients. There were two ingredients that you sourced from, at least two that you sourced Just two, just two, just two that you sourced from.

Siobhan 44:26

You got Frank's red hot at 7-Eleven.

Rob 44:29

Yes, absolutely Okay.

Siobhan 44:29

I believe that he was really adamant about it.

Rob 44:32

I would have liked Dude, you don't have to pay for those little cream cheeses. I also didn't want to fill up a bag of cream cheese.

Matt 44:39

You have any idea how much cream cheese that would have been? Yes, you should have. That would have been a little suspicious.

Siobhan 44:43

Absolutely. Could have bought grapefruit juice from the Wigs. This girl squeezed grapefruits. I did For real. I juiced grapefruit segments that no one even liked. Okay.

Matt 44:57

All right. So, even though I am officially disqualified from my own podcast, but it's delicious, god, I'm eating it all.

Siobhan 45:04

We're going to wrap up. Oh God, here we go.

Matt 45:07

With a mint flavor.

Siobhan 45:09

Look at this ender.

Matt 45:10

Which I have on reasonable authority.

Siobhan 45:12

You know for like a bojito situation. Oh, okay.

Emma 45:16

Sort of. I know I need a question Did you actually get this from the gas station?

Matt 45:19

Yes, this came from the gas station, thank you.

Siobhan 45:21

I like them in four packs.

Matt 45:22

I'm not going to lie. I do like a peppermint patty, as I did I do not.

Siobhan 45:27

As I did in the previous.

Matt 45:29

Drinkables, I also as.

Emma 45:32

Rob reaches out, just as dying to go out.

Matt 45:34

As I did in the previous drinkables, I did ask chat GPT what went with a lime flavor and it said try some mint for a surprise. And I said, okay, let's see.

Siobhan 45:43

And also be a bullshitter. That's what chat GPT also told you.

Emma 45:47

It definitely told him that.

Matt 45:49

No, like it said save some money and don't pay $19 to get the ingredients you get for 10.

Rob 45:55

So Some of us did.

Matt 45:57

What's the?

Rob 45:57

name of the game.

Matt 45:58

We could have been going to the dollar store still, you want to save some dq for thriftiness.

Rob 46:02

Dude, you could have gone to the dollar store and gotten cream cheese for a dollar.

Siobhan 46:06

Oh, grapefruit would have been a lot cheaper.

Rob 46:08

Dollar, cream cheese and a million grapefruit packages Okay. I don't like it.

Siobhan 46:14

You don't like York of Edmmer and Patties. No, I don't like dark chocolate.

Rob 46:17

I don't like minty. I feel like I'm brushing my teeth.

Siobhan 46:20

Yeah, that's okay. I mean I like them, but I don't think this is going to be good.

Rob 46:26

Surprisingly enough, it does go with the lime. It actually does, I'll give them that you look so mad that actually worked. You look so angry.

Siobhan 46:33

Do you?

Matt 46:33

know what's funny though.

Siobhan 46:36

When you think about it, you know what you shouldn't do. Rob, don't have any mosa after this, because you ever have like orange juice after you brush your teeth, and then you cry.

Matt 46:45

Oh, do it, Do it, let's see what happens.

Siobhan 46:46

Do it, do it.

Matt 46:47

Do it for the listens.

Siobhan 46:51

That's gross.

Matt 46:53

Make sure you bite. You gotta bite the orc now.

Siobhan 46:55

Oh, he's gonna sell up his own drink.

Matt 46:57

He's gonna try.

Siobhan 46:58

Of course.

Rob 46:59

It's not that horrid toothbrush orange juice situation. It doesn't taste great, but I think the raspberry is really saving it Well, that's very boring.

Siobhan 47:09

So if you were like for the listens and then you're like it's fine, that's very boring, do it again. Okay, it's gross, yep.

Emma 47:22

Is it no? Uh-oh, yeah, I'm not gonna lie.

Siobhan 47:25

I don't know if these two go together but I am Okay, they're melting in my hand.

Emma 47:31

That's why I it is. Yeah, I'm like finger looking good here, but I just don't know if they go together.

Siobhan 47:37

I don't hate it.

Rob 47:38

With the lime. I didn't hate it.

Siobhan 47:39

It's true.

Rob 47:40

Shockingly I will say Alright.

Matt 47:44

so that brings us to the voting, if you will.

Siobhan 47:49

What a journey we've been on.

Matt 47:49

Who won and who lost, and since my dear friends disqualified me, yeah, you are not in the running.

Siobhan 47:55

I'm trying to de-cute.

Matt 47:57

And none of you will have any Buffalo Dip on the way out.

Rob 47:59

What, by the way? The episode title Chicken Dip of Lives. However, is that a?

Siobhan 48:04

spoiler. I don't know, maybe not, probably not.

Rob 48:07

Nobody will know until it's fine. We get to the Chicken Dip of Lives.

Matt 48:10

Alright. So as I was super apprehensive and totally would not give a direct answer to who I thought won in the last episode, I'm going to give it and I hate myself for it.

Siobhan 48:21

Who's your?

Matt 48:22

daddy, who's your daddy?

Rob 48:24

Jeff Welser Resident of Cell City Center of Florida. Shout out, papa.

Matt 48:27

Welser, he might be hey Dad, but, rob, I think you won this one, thank you.

Emma 48:37

Do you think we're also partial because we love Wawa and we go there all the time?

Matt 48:43

There's no reason, that's not a reason to vote, did I just?

Siobhan 48:45

say a sentence that makes sense.

Matt 48:47

You did A delightful trio of things that work. A delightful trio of things that work, and it was like one step to one step and even though I didn't like the Chipotle, it still actually worked.

Siobhan 48:57

So I just here we go Goddamn right Grumble, grumble, grumble. I think.

Emma 49:01

I was very high up there and I'm just going to, you know, toot my horn, but I think I was pretty close.

Rob 49:07

I'm going to abstain from voting so that we can go the opposite way around the table.

Matt 49:11

So you can choose whether or not to give yourself a deciding vote at the end.

Siobhan 49:15

Maybe that's his strategy, Matt.

Matt 49:17

It's not a bad strategy.

Siobhan 49:19

Strategy Alright, we're switching to Google Forms next time I Okay, so I won't probably be making the same vote, mostly because I tend to gravitate toward savory rather than sweet. However, shut up. However, I will say that if I had to rank things, I would put myself in third out of three, because there's not four anymore, because we've dequeued one.

Matt 49:47

Thank you for that reminder. No problem, I'm here. What's that knife twisting in my side?

Siobhan 49:53

Okay, it's a knife made of K&Chicken Matt. Let's be honest though.

Matt 49:58

She's covered knife.

Rob 49:59

Let's be honest, though even if we didn't dequeue you, you only had. I would have given myself last if we didn't dequeue him Two out of three. So it's not like you would have won. I'm just saying I could have Listen, rob.

Siobhan 50:13

He voted for you, and I'm voting for you too, so maybe take a humble seat.

Rob 50:19

Oh listen, yes, thank you.

Siobhan 50:21

I'm just telling him that that lemon cake destroyed me. Yeah, I was really bad.

Rob 50:27

And I'm very concerned that I might shit.

Siobhan 50:29

A block of concrete later.

Rob 50:31

It's gonna be plasticky.

Siobhan 50:33

I'm gonna make the mistake to put the whole thing in your face. Listen, Zelle we only took a bite.

Rob 50:37

Go big or go home.

Siobhan 50:39

I guess.

Matt 50:39

That's how I live my life, Emma you put it in your face, emma, put it back on the plate.

Siobhan 50:45

I have voted for Rob's trio officially.

Rob 50:48

Thank you.

Siobhan 50:49

Would you say I'm a runner-up, though you are absolutely the runner-up.

Emma 50:53

Yes, I would agree with that also. So much as I love being the winner, I'm voting for myself. I have to say I agree with the wawa Woo. Look at this unanimous.

Matt 51:09

I love all three of those things. Will he vote?

Emma 51:11

for himself. They all tasted great with that combination.

Rob 51:15

Let it wash upon me. It was really good. Yes, so I must also say that I believe I'm the first two-time Drinkables winner. Yeah, that's true, this hurts, that's fair. Sip me baby one more time, stellar ship.

Outro and Boozy Quote

Siobhan 51:41

Do you know what I think is funny? You won this round and you like pretty much other than your own drink, which is fair, because you're going to make a drink that you like, you don't like anything.

Emma 51:53

I have to say that honestly bothers me the most, because I think that's actually really impressive.

Rob 51:58

Thank you.

Emma 51:59

Because Shavon and I are like this is like our go-to girl, like summer hangout. She was like yes, I'm having white gull.

Rob 52:10

I'll be their gull. In honor of my win, I'm going to mix your cocktail with Matt's lime.

Siobhan 52:15

Oh, that might be good. Grapefruit and lime is not a bad thing.

Matt 52:19

I got one finger on sip, one finger on chug.

Rob 52:21

Let's see how we're going to end this one.

Matt 52:23

Here's how we end it.

Rob 52:25

What? It's not great, it's not bad.

Siobhan 52:30

It's not you want it.

Matt 52:33

To the victor. Go to the spoils.

Siobhan 52:35

Well, well it up. Thanks for listening. Everyone Abropped Woo Drinkables Cheers.
