Earlier this year we shot a “test live” episode at the ballpark in St Louis. It’d be a shame to not share it with you all, so here it is in all its glory. Features special guest Kara making her favorite Tequila Sunrise.
Cocktail Moment Melon Baller Outtakes
When Matt has Jake behind the bar there are more outtakes than usual. Enjoy more sillies from the Melon Baller episode.
Cocktail Moment Melon Baller
“Jake from Jake Bakes” is behind the bar again to show Matt a favorite summer cocktail, the Melon Baller. It’s a variation on the classic Melon Ball using gin, grapefruit juice, and melon liqueur. It’s super simple, and super delicious, so let’s get in the kitchen and let’s get shaking.
Movie Fixers: The Cloverfield Paradox
The Movie Fixers are BACK with the 2018 Netflix original The Cloverfield Paradox. Ultimately enjoyable, this movie only needed a “patch job” (Tony’s words). If you’ve been on the fence about watching this sequel, maybe this episode will help you decide.
Next episode: Short Circuit
Comment below with your thoughts on The Cloverfield Paradox, the upcoming Short Circuit episode, or a suggestion for a future Movie Fix.
Cocktail Moment: Green Tea Mint Julep
Matt’s here with a new spin on an old summer favorite: a green tea mint julep. He first encountered this recipe from Twinings Tea during Disney’s Flower & Garden Festival and couldn’t wait to make one of his own at the Cocktail Moment bar. It features bourbon, green tea, blackberry puree, lime juice, as well as raspberry and mint syrups.
Cocktail Moment: Aviation
https://youtu.be/Urh3nns0jU0Matt’s got his tall, inexperienced friend Chase behind the bar to make a classic favorite: The Aviation. It’s got gin, lemon juice, and maraschino liqueur and is made in just a few shakes. A tasty cocktail to continue our Cocktail Summer Extravaganza!Our apologizes, the Guest credited in this episode is James Pence who was in our Bar PM episode a few weeks ago. Matt’s ACTUAL guest is Chase Mosley. Sorry for any confusion. Copy/paste is a convenient, but sometimes problematic tool.
Coming Out Stories: UPDATE
TSD sat down this week with Joey to see how things were going with their newest podcast: Coming Out Stories.
TSD: Joey, now that you’re Midway through the first season, how do you think it’s going?
Joey: The podcast is going great! I feel honored to be able to share these stories with the world. It truly been an honor and a privilege for me.
Has it changed at all since you first started this?
Joey: Yes. After the first episode we change the way we record and it’s been a noticeable upgrade. I’ve also felt like I’ve come into my own a bit more as a host which feels good. Honestly though, the biggest change has been how I feel about what I’m able to do. I knew it would be important but after recording these interviews and seeing how thankful my guests are after the fact has really impacted me in a special way.
How has the response been? Have people said anything to you or reached out?
Joey: The response has been amazing. People who have listened to it have told me how great they think it is and how it’s inspired them, and people who haven’t had the time to listen yet are genuinely excited to hear it. Even within the TSD crew we’ve all felt like it’s been a great project for us and we’ve already learned a lot.
Any favorite lines from any episodes stand out?
Joey: I’m gonna throw one from each episode because they all have good ones that stood out.
“I finally live my life the way I want to live it, I’m finally being happy, I can go out openly and be the real Chase Mosley.”- Chase
“This is a way for me to devote part of my life to helping someone else to not deal with what I dealt with, so they do not have to go through the misery I went through.” – Stephen
“It’s costs like, zero dollars to just be respectful.” -Nat
So what’s next? Any exciting episodes or guests to look forward to?
We have a special guest that we’re considering for the final episode that will air in the fall which could be interesting and a lot of fun, but I’ll keep that under wraps for now. Also, I’d like to get my mom on possibly for an episode. She hasn’t come out but I think it would be awesome to have a parent’s side of things when it comes to coming out so we’ll see I guess. She’s a little shy which is weird considering she raised me lol.
