Welcome back, everybody, to another episode of the Bellied Up Podcast. We're bellied up here at the Lions Pub here in Minneapolis, Charlie. How you doing? Good, Miles. It's a fantastic pub. I took the Skyway here, believe it or not. You ever taken the Minneapolis skyway? You didn't even walk outside? Didn't even walk. I haven't stepped outside today, Miles, and it's almost 1130. Isn't that crazy? I thought you were a nature guy. You don't want to get the nice cool breeze on your face? I'm a nature guy, but I had everyone telling me about the skyway. Yeah, you got to try it once. I got to try it out. How was the skyway? It was nice. nice. Honestly, I could see it being nicer for like a really

cold, blustery day. And because I'm a boozy bitch, I don't even know what temperature it is outside.

I didn't even look. Okay. Because I took the skyway. I got to leave before the skyway closes.

Cause, well, I guess I brought a jacket just in case. Yeah, you'll be fine. Yeah. I get you a ride. I got some food in the Skyway. That was the incentivizing thing is there was food halfway between here and there. My buddy had told me about it. I was a sandwich shop. I forget the name. But my buddy said, oh, you got to try this sandwich shop. And I says, okay, where is he? He says, well, you're here. Just take the skyway. And I was like, oh, yeah, I've always heard of this skyway, but never really took it seriously. So I did it. All right. So, folks, this is the first ever downtown Minneapolis skyway review. Charlie let's hear it okay with the part

I like the most is when you bring the outside inside they got this one uh thing where they got

big like open sky windows and then trees you know I'd like to see more trees I want to feel

like indoor trees I'd like some more indoor trees I'd like to see more trees. I want to feel like...

Indoor trees.

I'd like some more indoor trees. I'd like the whole skyway to be like a rainforest cafe. Okay. But I want real living plants. I want there to be mold issues throughout the whole skyway. Okay. So very humid skyway. I would love that. Which could be good in the winter time. Oh, yeah. I mean, it feels like you're in, you know, in Milwaukee, we have the domes, which is like,

you know, they basically do these tropical environments in these old, like, glass domes.

And they got really interesting birds flying around.

Like a greenhouse.

Yeah.

It's a greenhouse.

Yeah. Why are you laughing at me oh my mouse why didn't you just say green house instead you described what a greenhouse but it's

it it's the actual it recreates the climate of these places so there's an arid desert climate

there's a tropical rainforest climate. And sometimes

they switch out the climates. And in high school, I was part of the choir team. And we sang a song.

And me and my buddy were late because we may have had some pre school ritual going on. And I had to had my teacher was so upset because i did not have a bow tie

and i left my bow tie in my locker and she was pissed and then i had to run to the bow tie and then run back

to the bus and i was oh no she was just mad we were late and i said my bow tie was in my pocket and then i had to stand in the back and i had to stand to the bus and I was oh no she was just mad

we were late and I said my bowtie was in my pocket
