S4E162 - Not Quite A Mukbang

This week, hosts Rob and Andrew dive into a variety of topics, beginning with their recent travel experiences. They discuss the ups and downs of renting a car for a trip, from surprisingly cheap options to the challenges of a manual transmission. The conversation then turns to tasting two different non-alcoholic beverages on the show. One, a Hop Lark hop water, is noted for its beer-like appearance, while the other NA beverage is described as having a "warty" smell and a "very chocolatey" taste.

The tasting continues with a Czech-style dark lager from Pinnacle, which the hosts describe as having a recreation of the Prague clockface on the label. This leads to a discussion of how some sparkling beverages are legally classified and taxed similarly to wine, even when they're a local cider. The hosts consider how to blend these beverages together but conclude they are too stylistically different.

In a humorous moment, the hosts contemplate turning the podcast into a "mukbang," which they define as a "Korean video casting thing where they just eat a lot of food." They discuss what that would entail for their show, especially when tasting beer and the Pringles "beer can chicken" chips they have on hand.
