12: MOLLY - SOURDOUGH, REALITY TV, & ALL THINGS VACATIONING

**Molly** (0:03)
I went and looked at your old videos to see what people wear.

**Josh Harmon** (0:06)
What people wear?

**Molly** (0:07)
Yeah, I was like, do people look cute? But it's cozy.

**Josh Harmon** (0:11)
The vibe is cozy. The vibe is always cozy.

**Molly** (0:13)
The vibe is cozy.

**Charlie** (0:13)
Who had the best outfits?

**Molly** (0:16)
You.

**Josh Harmon** (0:17)
Oh, him? I don't know.

**Molly** (0:19)
I didn't know who to say. That's what he wanted to hear. Are you recording?

**Josh Harmon** (0:25)
You tell me when you're ready.

**Molly** (0:26)
What? I'm ready whenever.

**Josh Harmon** (0:30)
Okay. Hello, hello, and welcome back to What's The Sip? A podcast by friends for friends. To kick things off today, we're going to go back to my newer segment, which is the sipper of the week. So this week's sipper of the week is Ellie Glass. Ellie, I feel like you have been a very faithful listener for a while now. And so a couple weeks ago when I posted on my story, an opportunity to send in different sips of what she's been sipping on. Ellie has been sipping on specifically a 12 ounce iced maple cinnamon latte with a dash of brown sugar oat milk in a 16 ounce cup with extra ice. So that's Ellie's sip. I think she had mentioned that her roommate is a barista, so that's probably why she can make all these fun modifications. But shout out, Ellie. Shout out to this delicious sounding sip. And without further ado, welcome back. And welcome Molly. Hey, thanks so much for being here today.
Molly, let's just jump right into it. And why don't you just tell us what we are sipping on?

**Molly** (1:43)
So we are sipping on a very cherry dirty soda from Ziggy's in Zealand.

**Josh Harmon** (1:49)
I'm so excited about this. I've never had a dirty soda.

**Molly** (1:52)
Yes. So do you know the story of dirty sodas?

**Josh Harmon** (1:55)
Well, I don't even know what Ziggy says. OK, dirty sodas, Mormon.

**Molly** (1:58)
Mormon.

**Josh Harmon** (1:59)
Yeah.

**Molly** (1:59)
Mormon, because they can't drink coffee.

**Josh Harmon** (2:02)
But I thought it was because they couldn't have caffeine.

**Molly** (2:05)
Yes. And there is caffeine in this.

**Josh Harmon** (2:07)
So how does that work?

**Molly** (2:08)
I don't know.

**Josh Harmon** (2:10)
Don't know. Don't make the rules.

**Molly** (2:11)
But this has Dr. Pepper, Diet Dr. Pepper.

**Josh Harmon** (2:15)
OK.

**Molly** (2:15)
And vanilla creamer.

**Josh Harmon** (2:17)
OK.

**Molly** (2:18)
And like cherry flavoring and almond flavoring. You can taste the almond.

**Josh Harmon** (2:24)
OK.

**Molly** (2:24)
Yes. So I think it's very far away from here, but I really like this. It's good, isn't it? It's different.

**Josh Harmon** (2:34)
OK, wait. OK, so it says Ziggy's coffee is Ziggy's a coffee shop.

**Molly** (2:36)
It's a coffee shop.

**Josh Harmon** (2:38)
In Zealand.

**Molly** (2:39)
They just recently branched out. Yes. It's in Zealand and Hudsonville. But they also have dirty sodas at the Bridge Street Market. I haven't tried them yet, though.

**Josh Harmon** (2:46)
Like pre-made?

**Molly** (2:48)
No, they make them. The Bridge Street, you know, the coffee shop area.

**Josh Harmon** (2:52)
That's the Ziggy's now?

**Molly** (2:53)
No. They just also make dirty sodas. And then I've also heard that people make them at like gas stations.

**Josh Harmon** (3:01)
OK, I've seen those videos.

**Molly** (3:02)
Yeah.

**Josh Harmon** (3:03)
I'm really addicted to this. I this is very good. Why is this so good?

**Molly** (3:10)
I feel like you like new things, too.

**Josh Harmon** (3:12)
Why is this so good? Do you think it's really good? Yeah. Oh, no.

**Molly** (3:18)
And there's a cherry in it.

**Josh Harmon** (3:20)
I really enjoy it. I have seen videos of people making them at gas stations, and I'm like, I don't know if it's the gas station vibe that kind of is like, oh, that's weird. But I've also seen so many videos of people at the drive thru at Swig. Do you know what that is?

**Molly** (3:33)
Yes.

**Josh Harmon** (3:34)
Have you been?

**Molly** (3:35)
No.

**Josh Harmon** (3:36)
OK. And so I'm like, it's got to be good.

**Molly** (3:39)
Yeah. And it's stuff like this.

**Josh Harmon** (3:41)
So tell me how you picked this or why you picked this.

**Molly** (3:44)
OK, it's actually a new a new trend for me. But it's about to be for me, too. A couple of weeks ago, I've been visiting. I've been visiting my friend in Zeeland, and there's a Ziggy's right by. And so a couple of weeks ago, I went to pick up coffee. And then I saw they had dirty sodas. And I was like, honestly, this is kind of a fun variation from a latte because it's kind of like a latte.
