Booze News

Hammer (0:00)

All right, let's shift gears just a little bit. That story makes me want to crack open a beverage. I think we need a little booze news. Uh-oh.

You set them up and I'll knock them back, Lloyd.

Nigel (0:10)

One for one. We are curry booze news because it's really fun.

Hammer (0:29)

Score one for guys like us, Nigel.

Nigel (0:31)

What's that?

Hammer (0:32)

President Donald Trump recently went to Ireland, was there for a couple of days. He left on Sunday.

And upon leaving, he gave a little gift to the masses, removing all tariffs on Irish whiskey.

Nigel (0:50)

Slow clap, President Trump.

Hammer (0:53)

Not all heroes wear capes.

Nigel (0:55)

I'll vote for you a third time anytime, just for that.

Hammer (1:00)

Now, for me, I was in Ireland before they put the tariffs on.

Nigel (1:04)

Was that right?

Hammer (1:05)

And I am back home without having to pay any tariffs. So I could feel like I was able to escape the window here.

Nigel (1:14)

I skirted it. Yeah.

Hammer (1:15)

But for those who went after I did, man, it sucks you had to pay the tariff on that because Irish whiskey just hits different.

Nigel (1:24)

It does.

Hammer (1:24)

So what we're going to do to celebrate, Nigel, what are you doing over there?

I brought us a little something. Oh, no. Oh, I may or may not have brought us a little something. Something from Ireland. And this is my good one, too. This is the single pot still Virgin Carpathian oak Irish whiskey. You brought this over from tealing distillery.

Nigel (1:51)

Hmm. Another slow clap. And you're pouring it out over there. Just make it a small one, a really small one over there.

Hammer (1:57)

Yeah. You know what? You don't get the dictate terms when I'm passing out free Irish whiskey, kid.

How about you put your big boy pants on? The president is beating tariffs. I'm smuggling it back. Oh, and again, this was my more expensive one of the many that I did bring back.

Nigel (2:17)

Smells delicious. But on the count of three, 10 percent.

Hammer (2:22)

One, two, three, cheers.

Nigel (2:30)

Hello, Junior.

Hammer (2:33)

Put a little hair on your chest.

Nigel (2:36)

That's delicious. That is amazing. OK.

Let me guess what it cost you to bring that back from Ireland.

Hammer (2:43)

Before you do.

Nigel (2:44)

OK.

Hammer (2:44)

I don't remember. But just know.

Nigel (2:48)

All right.

Hammer (2:49)

Just know we spent hundreds of dollars on bringing back Irish whiskey.

Nigel (2:56)

That's that's all I need to know.

Hammer (2:58)

That I'll tell you, this was my most expensive one, but I don't remember the price.

Nigel (3:03)

Are you saying that because the crazy coupon lady might be listening and she doesn't she doesn't want to, you know.

Hammer (3:10)

Oh, she was there.

OK, she OK, so she knows she got a ring over in Ireland. So I said, all right, if I'm going to buy you a little quid pro room, yeah, if I'm going to buy you this ring, daddy's coming home with multiple bottles. So on the big bar at home and you've seen the bar, we've got a big spread, an entire shelf of various Irish whiskeys straight from the horse's mouth in Ireland right there, baby.
