We're going to be talking about life behind the bar, and now that things are slowly opening up. And then also we've got a ton of stories going on. We've got his big boys gone forever. We're running out of pennies and Dave, you may fire when ready? Wait, wait. I don't think we can get started until I get some shredded cheese for my fajitas. Oh, good Lord.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Alright, go ahead, Bob. Hey, welcome. What is going on? This is the it and the d show. Can we still call it the it in the d show, we got to rename it. And at some point, Judy, Bob did, I've been, I've been lobbying for two and a half geeks for four years now. Can you still be Dave? I don't know. We'll figure that out later. This is episode three 54. We are broadcasting live from either our quarantine homes or the bars in one of them in Hamtramck. This is Bob, the sales guy that is Dave. The geek Randy. I do the Twitters is doing the Twitter. You can find us online at [inaudible] dot com. Give us a like on the socials and subscribe to us everywhere. Fine podcasts are sold. We, uh, and again, we've talked about this before. Uh, we are, uh, Lee, we're leaving events out, uh, until August, no pun intended.<br> <br> Uh, and we'll, we'll be bringing them back then. We'll do something outside and yeah. So that's, that's the update there. So yeah. Hey, just like we just introduced earlier, we have two illustrious guests, friends of ours for very, very long time. Both of them bartenders, we kind of want to do, uh, discuss, um, what life was like a behind the bar. We, we, you know, a few of us have been to the bar, but, uh, joining us is, uh, Mikey from the old Shalala downtown Detroit, sir. How have you been, haven't seen you in awhile? Uh, I've been well, man, uh, just getting used to this non quarantine stuff and living the life and working, uh, dealing with all of the wonderful public. And then now this is a, it's actually a first for the show. We've been doing this for what? Seven years. We haven't had anyone ever calling live from the bar. August gets legs in the house. I mean, we've, we've done live broadcasts from bars, but we got August in the house. He is actually tending bar right now at whiskey and a jar down in Hamtramck, sir. How you doing? You're on mute bud<br> <br> August. I'm actually not working tonight, but I figured it'd be fun to come here and show you just exactly what we're looking at<br> <br> These days at afar in Hamtramck. Uh, ms. Katie is pretty much by herself with a few people outside, a couple of regulars. And that's about the state of the world down here. Yeah. So odd. I'll start things off with you like life behind the bar. Like, so I started trickling into a few bars. I live out everyone, you know, I live on Rochester Hills, Auburn Hills, um, the bars out here pretty much business as usual. Um, a couple of them took out a couple of tables. Most of them like the open air ones in Rochester Hills are still the same. Dave was telling stories about going to, uh, with down a Cass corridor. They haven't set up like a, like a seven mile gas station with a plastic barricades and little, little windows. So some people are taking it to huge extreme, some people aren't, I guess what's your take on, I guess, the new normal behind the bar?<br> <br> Well, it really depends on where you are. Like I went up to a bar in McComb County last week. I walked in and right walked right the hell out.
