Welcome to Drinking Bros.

Sit back, relax, and have a fucking drink.

Dr. Dr. Yeah, welcome to drinking rose bake news.

Bringing you the Reels' bakers news from over the weekend.

You caught me.

Is your mouthful?

You caught me.

I'm sorry.

We're in between shows, and I usually have a first form protein stick.

I thought of any time. This is the first time in 2,000 episodes. I've been busted eating a first form protein stick. I thought at any time. It was a first time in 2,000 episodes have been busted eating a first form meat stick between shows. I have not had the sharp cheddar though before. My God, Bob, I was just asking you about this. How long has this been around? A little bit. It's not one of the... Damn, these are good. It's not one of the original flavors, but... No, but it was the second round of flavors. Was it really? It was before the charred or before the jalapeno cheddar in the Italian for sure. Damn, dude. I was stuck on Italian and... That's the best one, I think. Holy shit, this is good. Yeah, it was stuff in my fat face, so apologies out there. But shout out to Andy Fricela. This is a great flavor, sharp cheddar. All right. God damn, dude. First one really does it all here. Welcome to the show, kids. Got a banger of an episode for you here today. We'll address a couple things at the top of the show. It was mentioning that Dan, he was a meeting with investors for Hardy Seltzer. There was somebody who hit me up in the app. Whenever it's like the app or Patreon or something like that, we feel like we know you guys so we can answer those questions. And they were like, how much Hardy F to him? Hardy F is tripled. It's rad, but it's also dangerous because you're worried about selling out everywhere. We've got a bunch of listeners in the show. And they're like, holy shit, dude, we went to like three locations that's sold out. And then up the street, there's a ton. Yeah, that's why we're still meeting with investors. We want to open up all 50 states. That is the goal. I think we're in 12 or 13 right now, but it requires a shit ton of money.

So yeah, that, that chase and that fight will unfortunately go on forever. And even if

you're in the middle of like an exit sale or something else, like it doesn't matter. You

still have to keep going as a business owner to keep going through all that. There was a one offer that's,

they were like, hey, we love your formulas. Our product sucks and they want to rip the formulas

for it and then kill yours. Don't want to do that. The money's right. Obviously,

anything's okay, but nothing in that range. So yeah, that battle for investors will go on for a long time. And it's only because you guys are buying it and you love it and we love it and it tastes like like Wigali Ranchers. That's it. Even these guys, you fucking animals. Where are you from today? Philly. Philly. Of course, dude. Of course. And they walk in, they grab tall boys to start with. And I go, guys, we got two, three shows today, dude. It's going to be a long fucking day. Don't start with the tall boys. And they're already rocked. So proud of you. But even you guys said the same thing. You were like, holy shit, just look with Jolly Ranchers. Yeah, yeah, that's what it is.

And the word's out. Like people have chatted about it on TikTok and all that other fun stuff, so it's been great for us. The other thing I wanted to address was somebody hit me up about comments on Spotify for some reason. Look, what was that? Over Christmas, we got attacked by the bots or whatever the fuck that was.

It was an Arabic or whatever it was.

Yeah, it was it was an arabic or whatever it was yeah it was it was uh uh i think there uh god where is it from i think there it was uh wasn't indonesia was it the jews no no it was one of the um it was an Arab country. Not the Jews?

Well, they don't like them.

Now, it was an Arab country that just has a bot farm that goes in, you can see it on Instagram sometimes, too.

It'll be like a bunch of anonymous accounts with no followers.
