There's nothing in the title "mixologist" that says it has to be drinks. For that matter, lots of "bars" qualify for "bartending." ...Damn, the speed with which this bit became boring! Anyway. Jelly bean cocktails, luxurious Snickers, """""Cider"""" and more. Oh! And Dota, because they actually put something good in the game for the first time in ages.

Ranch dressing. Since time immemorial it has enchanted mankind with its smooth flow and flavor. It is divisive, just as the Mighty Mississippi divides America. "Wings are better with blue cheese," they say. "Fries are better with ketchup," they whine. And sometimes they are right. Well, the ketchup people are. Blue cheese dressing is in fact disgusting and you should feel ashamed of yourself.

Sorry. What were we talking about?

Btw, you don't need to tell me the Hello Kitty thing is wrong. You can if you want. I pulled up tabs during the ep, and I left them open, and then looking at them AFTER the show, it was like "huh. No they say that's not true. Well. Ok." I don't really know what that means to be honest. I mean I guess it just means she really is a cat? I guess. Which is kinda the simpler explanation. But it's not very engaging, Sanrio.

It's been a year- the story can now be told. We lived a real-life Battle Crow... and because it was real, it therefore wasn't a Battle Crow. Let's go back in time, shall we? One year ago to the day, Nick and Six were in Disneyland, as was Allen aka Sir Not Appearing On This Episode....

We're allowed to talk about Deadlock now! And, fortunately, we want to. That always helps. Plus, there's a new Dota hero- that doesn't happen every day. Hell, it barely happens every year! Actually (squinting at a chart) in 2014 and 2018 we didn't get one! But otherwise, there's been at least one every year since Dota 2 came out. Maybe that'll stop soon! Maybe it SHOULD, judging by the latest release! Just spitballing here.

Now, I have some sympathy for influencers, and then I also have a lack of sympathy in some areas. Part of the blessing of Scanline not paying my bills is, I'm not beholden to audience numbers and such. Bottle Crow's existence was probably a good clue of that. Point is, I can make whatever I want, and also NOT make whatever I want (broadly). An influencer doesn't have that same freedom. The content they produce is in response to trends and demands, and while they absolutely have sway, if they just follow their whims too much odds are they'll be out of business. And so maybe a food influencer makes some recipes or videos they're not proud of. Maybe they just needed to pay the rent that day.

Or maybe they needed to pay the MORTGAGE that day because they're a lot more wealthy than me. Right? That's the thing? Efshay Onjay probably has, like... a house. That he owns. And then goes to a studio do do his little "FOOOD Wishes" lilt. So here's the thing: your recipe is dogshit and you should feel bad. And I'm coming for you. Until I get bored, which will probably happen pretty fast.

This was supposed to be a Battle Crow (our monthly bonus Patreon show), but the guidance of Grace deemed it not to be. Press play with your Two Fingers and celebrate with us the start of the Summer of Sour, cracking open a normal one with the boyz, and marveling at the miracle of bagged tea. I hope you brought some Oil Dipping Sticks for snacking.

Bonus points if you tell me (Nick) to "git gud" in the comments.

Bad drinks for me are a religion, and CoffeeMate is the sh- wait, can I write that? Is Apple gonna get mad if I swear in the description? Hmmm. Listen I'm a "rule breaker" but like only when no one's gonna get mad at me. i dont like disappointing people. im sorry i will not swear in the show notes.

anyway if you're scrolling through eps or something this is the dirty soda episode. god willing the only one.

Were you having trouble sleeping? Do you need to hear two idiots get confused by numbers for, oh, around two and a half hours? I have such good news for you. It's gonna be great.
