As someone who is gluten intolerant I am baffled by anyone who goes into a place and asks if things are gluten free. Do your damn research ahead of time people, and don't expect other people to bend to your dietary requirements. Guess what? Don't order bloody Mary's or beer.
Get a bar name cucumber ocarina
I was a bartender for over a year. Yes to all of this. A hundred fold over!!
Things I have learned:
1. Don't be a douche
2. Don't say bro
3. Brian is a legitimate bar tender
4. Don't forget the liquor bottle viewing sunglasses.
If bartenders or waitresses ignore you, walk out n don’t pay the bill. Fuck them
SuPeR lEgItImAtE bArTeNdEr
5. transitions to ads can be fkn flawless
4. A legitimate bartender is easy to spot cause they have a cucumber ocarina.
Brian Brushwood is a legitimate bartender, he went to Barvard
Me too, I studied at Ale.
He must’ve crushed his bar exam
Use the full name, you cretin. Bavard, school of magic, bar tending, and resetting injury counters.
@@Echs_D33 Pretentious isley-league-collage prick
Lesson learned: Avoid people with three sunglasses and bartenders who are very persistent on how legitimate they are.

Hey Boss
Hey bro ,hey bro ,hey bro

Boop beep beep comment and reply like normal
Imagine this comment was written by a bot
🤣
I honestly couldn't tell that Brian hasn't been tending bar his whole life. It was so natural the way you twirled that cucumber and dialed for the beer.
The twirling might come from him handling knifes and shit, though. But damn, that seemed unnaturally natural to him.
@@SulfuRed13 he could just be like me and naturally wanna twirl anything he happens to be holding that seems twirlable
And the cucumber pop eye ocarina. What bar *doesn’t.*
Sauce bottles in fast food restaurants are highly twirlable
@@asdfgidji879I’ve met my people hahaha I do this with everything
"Well, what legitimate beers do you have on draft, ya weirdo?"
I'm dying.
Thought he said ”beerdo” lol
Somehow I get the feeling that Jason only wrote this episode in so he could show off his wide and varied experience in being a d-bag customer.
Or just his hilarious improv skills.
Jason is a legend.
I thought it was to flaunt the 3 pairs of shades
@@Jason-de5pl Only thing missing was double popped collar on his polo shirts.
Jason *hates* improv, lmao
@@Jason-de5pl Nah dude, he had more than that
When he finally said "Hey boss," after switching the glasses I fucking died dude
Yes, yes, yes. Fantastic tips! Back in my bartending days my boss told me that if anyone said they were his friend that I was to charge them double. Ahhhh Crazy Larry.
Im pretty sure thats classed as purposely over charging which is illegal and wrong.
@icuras dont make me charge you double now
I can’t believe you guys aren’t verified!!
@@Ojthemighty it's an old joke. At a grocery store I worked at my co-workers would say "charge them double" when someone they were friends with then they'd share a laugh
Larry Birklin
16 mins of Brian attempting to get Trevor fired...
I'm sure he was close to succeeding when he turned on the Guinness tap. Or at least he owes Trevor a few bucks for it.
I could be wrong but I think they're not shooting at Trevor's bar
@@HwaRang777 i don't if they are or not.
@@imjustwolf
He also got Guiness in a liquor bottle. He needs to buy an entire new bottle now.
@@mattbenz99 I'm sure if it got in the bottle that they bought it with the money they showed on screen lmao
Anyone else disappointed that Jason didn't finish the episode with 6 pairs of glasses hanging from various places on his head?
Sooo disappointed...
A new pair of glasses per lesson.
“Can I get your favorite 12 year scotch?”
**grabs Irish whiskey**
“I am a legitimate bartender!”
I was wondering who would notice 😂
I came to the comments to make sure that somebody mentioned this 😅
Just started drinking whiskey recently and thought that was a mistake, but wasn't confident enough to say anything so I ane to the comment section for confirmation 😁 lol
Big npc energy
The Man, grabbed 12 Yr old pot still Irish whiskey , he just leveled up that drinks order
This is a public service.
A PUBlic serves
You can really tell that Trevor cares about his work.
This is the first "Bar etiquette" video I've seen where the bartender isn't pretentious or annoying in some way or another, it's quite refreshing actually
Johnny Parsnips well when people know what they are talking about in one way or another they are gonna come off pretentious or annoying
@@Prince_-vu4wu That’s what an annoying and pretencious person would say
@@Achromasloth cool
I dont think we were watching the same video
4 grown men laugh constantly over roleplaying being in a bar.
Aw man Douches and Drink Orders, can I play? I've always wanted to try a barmaid who acts flirty for tips but also wants to legitimately find love with a legitimate bartender. May I borrow 4d6 bro?
Thats what me and my friends are like now after 5 months of quarantaine..
My bet is that before they started filming they may have been partaking a bit
Thats the reason i love these guys, they are like kids
@@kendarr but it SHOULD be adults in a bar. They are too childish for my taste 🤙
*After listing off several Scotches, an Irish, and a Bourbon.*
"Can I have your favourite 12 year old Scotch?"
"Ah, yes sir!"
*Brian immediately reaches for an Irish.*
Beat me to it!
I think Daniel may need to revoke Brian's somme status
So what you're really saying is that you believe Brian when he says he is a legitimate, professional bartender?
I feel like we need some sommy discipline here...
Back to the vault with you, brushwood
I know the owner!
'cute, cause I don't know you and I am the owner.'
When I was working as a bartender this would be my answer:
"I know the owner"
No you don't
"yeah I do"
No I AM the owner I don't know you.
That works fine if you are the owner. Works horribly if your boss's best friend from childhood stopped in to surprise them.
InItForTheParking true. But that friend wouldnt behave that way and ask for The owner by name whether he is in or not. Also. I was kind of the face of the pub. Even regulars thought i was the owner at Some point :p
So the argument that they knew the owner wouldnt fly either way. Unless yes if they were a real old friend
@@iWhacko Be careful with it. My example was an exaggeration but I have seen owners fire bartenders for pretending to be the owner. Not sure how they found out the person was doing it but when they were confronted about it they owned up to it.
Never bartended, but my initial reaction if I were in this situation, and someone said "I'm friends with the owner" I'd fire back with in a totally friendly tone "Oh, you know Chad?" But that's not the owners name. Their reaction determines the rest of the interaction at that point.
I just make them call the owner
As a bartender in the UK this should be required watching when you turn 18 and can legally go to bars
Just turned 18, think I'm doing the right thing.

CAUTION - BE A LEGIT BARTENDER AT A LEGAL ALCOHOLIC ESTABLISHMENT
The actual steps though:
1. Set the tap going
2. Have an engaging conversation for several minutes
3. Make sure you remember who ordered it.
In Ireland they do tens of orders at a time, and probably because everyone orders Guinness anyway, they remember whose drink is whose and serve them in the precise order they were ordered so that no-one waits any longer than anyone else
@@banishedair4518 the bartender in Dublin forgot that I'd ordered one and it sat settling for like 5 minutes 🙃
@@Jamwamee Unless he specifically said he forgot, he probably didn't. Guinness is supposed to settle for an extremely long time, and the bartenders are both trained for and familiar with collecting orders for almost the entire bar at once in most establishments.
@@banishedair4518 I know how long Stouts take to settle dude
Bar stands for beer and alcohol room. Your welcome
Bartender here.
All of these are spot on, but he is missing some:
- For gods sake, have your money or card ready! When we are busy, the last thing I wanna do, i stand there and wait for you to pay, so I can serve someone else, it is also really awkward for me.
- Don't ask me if I can give you a better price. I don't own the bar, I didn't make the prices, and if I give you a discount, I might loose my job.
- Do. not. yell. (or whistle) also for your sake, bartenders hate it, which means you will be served last. We see when people come up to the bar, so we know whose turn it is to be served.
Hahahaha today I just payed without the card. I mean, instead of giving them the card, i mechanically reached for the device and wrote the ping while they looked at me in awe. They would have looked in a bigger awe if it had worked. It took me a while to understand what was wrong. Good thing I'm friends with them.
That's why whenever I order my drink and any bartender charges me,I tell them to start a tab and keep it open,then when I want to leave. I pay for all the drinks I've had throughout the night without bothering anyone.
Brian is a legit bartender. And Jason in his douchebag outfit is just perfect
We need a Douche Jason side series.... The Modern Douche: "I'm a modern doooooooooouche!!!"
Just love the three sunglasses
Looks like the tables have become the hunted
"Can I order some food here at the bar?"
"Sure, but we are only serving GRILLLLED CHEEEEESE."
Dive bars : Are we a joke to you?
Because those are the only bars that people wouldn't bat an eye if you ordered food,otherwise just get a beer and go to your nearest McDonald's if you're that hungry lol
Can we please get a sound bite of " 'Cause I'm a Modern Choooooooch"
What is a chooch?
@@sub2willne52 A chooch is a person who acts like they know what they're doing when they really don't. Or a person who acts in a disrespectful, oafish, or idiotic manner. Basically a jackass.
I believe Modern Rogue actually talked about being a chooch in their cigar episode back in the day.
@@BericD talked about it, and found out that they were.
I would love to have one myself
instant ringtone material
Next time I'm in Austin I'm going to this lounge, finding Trevor and doing each of these things and leave him a $50 tip for providing great content.
Ask for sham
11:50 Brian is the legitest of legitimate bartenders Sham has ever known.
Micah Philson M night Sham-alama the owner of the bar (i will leave)
I used to work at a dive bar, (had no actual mixed drinks, just beer on tap and bottled stuff). He went to turn the tap on, and it was absolutely hilarious 😂 you gotta let the air run through for a second before you start! It is pressurized... hahaha.
I honestly love how Brian doesn't know jack-ass about bartending, so he just polishes random bottles :D
Someone who is in charge of showing bar tenders how to pour a Guinness had a stroke at that exact moment.
What a sham
13:45 Underappreciated joke about the Cucumber Ocarina bit
"Do you have a LINK where they can all find that?"
Oh wow I didn't hear that till you pointed it out! I was too busy cackling
I was disappointed they didnt golf clap at that joke and tip their imaginary hats.
we all legit bar tenders now, thanks Brian
So what do bar tenders taste like? do they taste like chicken tenders? also, do they have their own southern flavour variant?
💀
The legitimate bartenders are the friends we made along the way
The "know the owner" thing happened to me so much. "I know him too, he cuts my pay check" is such a good line that helped me so much.
I also used the "what's his name already ?" thing, was good fun to see them struggling.
Incredibly useful video for non bartenders too, thank you so much for that. By the way I found out that bartenders (me included ?) tend to make those mistakes a lot once they happen to be on the other side of the bar !
"Ya, he said to charge you double. He said you'd understand, mate"
Wooo trevor! I love how the first epi he was in (from the outtakes) he was nervous as fuck, now hes a fan favorite and hes killing the appearances!
I love how effortlessly jason transitions from explicitly stating that a solo cup won't do, to explicitly stating for it to be in a solo cup lol
The Cucumber Ocarina will be the name of the run-down tavern where you guys should begin the D&D episode. Come on, you owe that one to us.
That name really has to show up again somewhere.
@@TheStrangerous yes, and it could be: The Cucumber Ocarina Of Space And Time ;-)
I wonder who would be the DM
Take a shot every time he says “I’m a legitimate bartender”
I once was making a dash for the exit because things needed to come out of me violently, and while covering my mouth a weeee little bit spurted out and landed directly on the very white very expensive suit the bouncer was wearing. I only found this out when I came back inside, when he grabbed me by the arm and angrily informed me that i had indeed vomited on his suit. I reached into my pocket pulled out a 100 and handed it to him told him to get it dry cleaned on me and keep the change. A week later I came back to that bar, the same bouncer was working, he handed me a 100 and said the dry cleaner didnt charge him for it, and that he didnt feel right taking my money. Dont be a douche if you fuck up, pay for it.
WOW!
I used to work as a bouncer, if only more patrons were as well mannered as you...
Back in 2018 at an Irish pub I missed the toilet with my piss and and wiped it up with a hundred dollar bill. Actually it was a big puddle and it took about 6 or 7 hundred dollar bills to soak it up. There wasn't any toilet paper and I felt good knowing I did the right thing.
underrated comment
Aw! He had a good conscience that he didn't keep your money.
I love this, I ran a pub in England for a couple of years and all of this is spot on! Especially ‘knowing the owner’ I used to get it all the time! I had one terrible customer ring the owner past 11PM on his landline while his new born child was really quite ill! I almost begged the guy not to call him and gave him the chat about rules and policy but he rang the owner, he then handed me the phone with a huge grin and the voice on the end of the phone, the owner, just said ‘he’s barred’ it was gold the man kicked off but the customer was totally out of order. It all started because we had ran out of his favourite real ale and our replacement and suggested other beers were not good enough. Sorry that was long but this actually happened! Well done you Gentlemen Rogues! (Side not, his child got over the big, fit a healthy now!)
Can we change the title of this episode to "How to not be a dickbag in most situations, bar related or otherwise"?
Was thinking about cashiers at fast food places. lol
@@dustinsmith8341 I work in fast food, and I would honestly love if customers watched this video lol.
I work in retail, and agreed.
Friday night at 9 o clock: "Hey, can I get a round of Mojitos for my crew over there?" as he points to a table of 15 drunk ass jabronies throwing napkins and coasters at each other.
Sure that’s a $150 tab and will make the mojitos as basic and efficient as possible for them
Don't drink and drive cuz you might hit a bump and spill your drink.
I just keep seeing you around
Don't drink and drive cuz you might hit a drink and spill your bump. Wait.
drunk driving goes down to 0 percent
Don’t drink and drive cuz you might hit somebody and spill your drink and nobody wants to spill their drink.
That's why you only drink at stoplights
I don't understand why people are doubting his bar-tending skills, I mean he literally said he's a legitimate bar-tender. Even if he didn't, did you SEE how he twirled that cucumber?
"Can I get your favorite 12 year scotch?" "I'll tell you what's great is the redbreast, that's the Dalmore move that out of the way. I'm a legitimate bartender." Let me move this great 12 year scotch out of the way to get you an irish whisky, friend. lol
*whiskey
But a great Irish whiskey even better than green spot
@@MalcolmPowder Irish... *Whisky. Made in America? Whiskey. Made anywhere besides America or Canada? Whisky. Made in Canada? Either. Though, you don't have to take me seriously, I've only been to trade school for, and made a profession out of alcohol for the past 4 years.
@@TheDobstopper Ah Shane. It is whiskey when talking Irish. And you don't have to take me seriously but I'm a bartender in Ireland the past 15 years ;)
@@TheDobstopper Might want to ask for your money back from that trade school.
The rule of thumb to remember is its "Whiskey" if there is an "e" in the name of the country, otherwise its "Whisky".
Though obviously this isn't always correct, it's much better that presuming America is the only one who uses "whiskey".
I love how for the first tip they go into a whole skit about how not to call the bartender. Then when it's time for the example for how to do it properly, the bartender says hi first.
Me, misreading the title as 'bear etiquette sins" :
"Hell yeah my dudes, I don't wanna do bear crime."
That would be too much to bear.
Fellipe Carvalho this is a unbearable pun
PSA (sort-of) I want to put it out there that some people who ask about the gluten free options may be asking because of sensitive celiacs disease, and it is correct, the process of distilling inherently leaves behind gluten while making spirits - not every distiller uses isolated processing equipment with "gluten-free" in mine. I imagine even certain things added/used to achieve desired flavor profiles post distillation can contain gluten and those people will react to the drink.
Flip side, I totally get it - highly sensitive celiacs people will generally be acutely aware of what they can and can not have already and may not even ask the question, they'll just know.
Flip Flip side - There are brands of whiskey that are labeled "gluten free" and this typically means processed in a gluten free or gluten controlled environment.
Pedanticism aside, I love the video, and thanks for always being entertaining and helpful at the same time.
That is important to know though.
If you have celiacs, you should know what you are able to drink, its no one else's job to cater to you.
Its like being a vegan and ordering from a busy food truck but making your chease steak vegan.
Oaked Chardonnays also contain trace amounts of gluten from the barrels.
Came here to make this comment, someone with celiac disease can get very sick and gluten content in liquor is not typically labeled and there are grey areas. I would rather the bartender just say they don’t know if it is gluten free rather than falsely stating everything is gluten free. Then, a person with celiac disease can go with a safe choice or research the brand.
This was one of the funniest episodes you guys have done. Be sure to tell Sham. He and I go way back.
I started with you because of trevor, at first i could not stand jason’s non-stop lesson on history from Wikipedia, but now i have watched every episode, you need to release more more more. And so happy to see the trev back
I would say Jason had too much fun with that character, but that stuff was hilarious lol
"that's like paint thinner"
i was dying😂
“I know the owner too, he cuts my paychecks”
This year, The Modern Rogue has been my favorite channel on TH-cam! I've recommended you to almost all my friends and they love you guys too. Keep it up!
Thanks! Glad you're enjoying it.
Wow.......I'm a little bit shocked by how well Jason plays a d-bag. Good acting? Fantastic episode guys!!
Playing a d-bag is easy; think of what proper manners would be expected...do the opposite.
Also, the world is full of them, so we have many many many many examples to choose from.
Acting?
acting? What acting?
Sham Berkleman is gonna be proud
Goooooo warriors!!
"What legitimate beers do you have on draft, weirdo?" I'm fucking dead. lmao
Great video! Always enjoy learning about other professions! A note about the gluten free point though, some people sensitive to gluten can have a reaction to grain based spirits (like some vodkas). It's especially annoying as not all brands list the ingredients.
There is no way for gluten to make it through the distillation process, unless something went horribly wrong with the particular batch. If you have reaction to grain based spirits in general, it must be something else because only things that vaporize at about same temperature as ethanol will make it through the distillation.
@@tarnvedra9952 as someone with a gluten allergy. Some spirits especially whiskey use some flavorings with gluten products in them
You've been bartended!

I’m pretty sure the best solution is to automate the job. No more tips, reduces waits, no etiquette.
I love Brian’s robotic responses. It’s like:
Human interaction complete computing response from host server “Trevor” response positive
0:17 "that escalated quickly i mean that really get out of hands fast "
Jason is weirdly good as an actor, and Brian is weirdly legitimate as a fake bartender. Boop beep boop.
If anyone plans on travelling to Germany: tipping is generally welcomed at bars and restaurants. And 10-20% is also a good rule of thumb, if you have the money for it. However people here get paid hourly, so if you don't have the money to tip generously, that's okay to my mind. But the staff will always be happy and give you a friendly Dankeschön. :)
OMG. That was the funniest episode yet. Brian killed it as a "legitimate bartender" I don't know how you all didn't bust out laughing
I know Trevor kind of mentioned it already, but expecting a 20% tip in Europe is beyond laughable. Employers tend to just pay people a wage that represents the skills or experience they have. Works for us.
I really wish it were that way here in the US.
In England if the change is anything less than a quid they can usually keep it but it usually just goes into the till or a charity box. Buying whoever is at the bar a drink is more likely than giving them a tip.
I know in Canada general custom is 15% (although if you’re a student maybe 10% cause school is a thing that costs a lot of money) so if I were to tip an American bartender 15% would they consider it an insult?
That's more than you tip for food!
Nobody gives a shit.
Hey bar owners, put drinks menus on the table. If I sit down at a table with nothing on it, then I stand in a line, then get to the bar with a load of people waiting and you have a huge selection of drinks, then it's going to take me a while to figure out what I want and what you have. If you have a drinks list, have a copy on every table so people can sit down, take their jackets off, relax, take in the atmosphere, look over the list, decide what everyone wants, then once we get to the bar we can put in that specific order you want
Favorite 12 year old scotch and Brian picks out redbreast? Bartending must be stressful. Even for a whiskey sommelier. Love you, dude. 😉
3:08 does not address the issue Jason is having. Sometimes you do feel like you're being professionally ignored. Yes, Jason is overplaying it, but I've been in bars where it takes at least 20 minutes to just catch the eye of one the servers to take your order. They then often raise one finger to indicate : just a minute.
It's why I insist on paying immediately when I get my drink.. I'm not gonna have to play THAT game again when I want to leave.
Holy cocktails, Brushwood! I’m currently drinking a Manhattan with an extra 1/2 oz of sweet vermouth as I watch this! Mead boy is psychic as!
On my 21st birthday, puked EVERYWHERE in the men's bathroom and demanded they allow me to clean up my own mess. I was so blacked out, came to, then left reality again. Oh, my 21st was a shit show.
As a now ex Barman here’s a little list of stuff that will not get you served or even served at all as here in the U.K. we can refuse service with no explanation, So here are a few of my pets hates and I guess many other Bar/Pub staff too.
1. Never click your fingers and expect to get served any time soon as Bar staff are NOT performing seals for your entertainment.
2. Never ever Whistle at Bar staff to get their attention they are not sheepdogs rounding up your mutant flock.
3. Never tap coins on the Bar for attention, Firstly it’s rude secondly it’s irritating and I have personally refused service to more than one would be Woody Woodpecker.
4. Shouting YO! at the top of your voice will probably get you ignored the pub is NOT a hood nor is it Compton in fact if you are British go to those places and try to order a drink there by shouting YO! at the Bar staff but don’t buy a return ticket as you won’t be needing it.
5. Never ask for a particular Beer then wait until it’s poured then change your mind and laugh this will get you no service and probably Barred from the pub too.
6. Never turn up at a Pub 5 minuets before it closes and expect to get served as Bar staff have had a long hard day with aching feet and the last thing they want is to serve you so forget it and don’t even try it as a mouthful of Anglo Saxon often offends.
So there you have it my little list of stuff that I Personally hated and still do unfortunately I can’t Bar these types of people anymore , But I thought I’d pass on these little Gems from my own experiences.
Not tipping is indeed a thing here in England. I've been to super fancy bars and offered a fair tip and they flat out refuse.
1) I agree with the others, we need "The Modern Chooch" to become the new tagline at the start of the show, and 2) you coulda made this video 25 years ago when I went to clubs... I'm certainly more educated and experienced in bar etiquette these days.
Every European 18 year old should have this down. So should every American who's 21. This should basically be taught to you by ur parents.
7:56 Trever's face when Jason arrives killed me
Any video with Trevor is a masterpiece
9:29 Brian huggs the bottles, Priceless. "Me, A Legitimate Bartender" is the funniest running gag ever. I showed this episode to my coworkers and now they are hooked on The Modern Rogue.
That moment when you realize the "I" for ("I"nitiating an order) isn't the beginning of some handy acronym but rather just the roman numeral for 1.
Myself and a couple of friends who arrived late together once got kicked out of a Wetherspoon's because the staff thought *I* seemed drunk. I was the only one in our entire party of eight that *HADN'T* had a drink yet, I'd just come from McDonald's to meet up with people who'd been drinking for 30 mins, and in case you don't know about British culture, Wetherspoon's isn't exactly known for it's civilised atmosphere anyway.
I always enjoy The Modern Rogue, but this video was even more hilarious than most! Jason is in fine form here. FOUR pairs of sunglasses (At least those visible)? All he needs to complete the image is a couple more shirts with popped collars at the same time, too!
Knowing the owner is a good one, because usually the staff there would recognise you if you spent a lot of time with the owner/manager anyways. There was a bar on my university's campus that I was friend's with the manager of, and the staff would recognise me because the manager would chat with me when I was there. "Actions speak louder than words" comes to mind here.
as a rl bartender, this is legit. i wish all my patrons would watch this video, because all this stuff happens regularly at the places i work. and when brian poured the beer on that bottle of tequila, i died.
i read the title as "baguette Sins and how to avoid them" and was extremely intrigued in what a baguette sin would be
"God is a channel called the Modern Rogue"
That caught me off guard lol
And it’s wrath brings itself
In germany the tips legally belong to the bar/restaurant/whatever owner.
So it´s a good idea to ask the service people who gets the tips since they might not get any of it (they could get a part or all of it though since it depends on the owner).
Genau!
I read that as, Bar Etiquette and How to Avoid Them.
So glad im not the only one who read it like that XD
Rewatching this and realizing that when they curse it's censored with glasses clinking is such a nice touch (Brian at 4:00)
Someone once claimed to be a friend who is an infamous tequila fiend in a few bars where we live, and didn't understand why barstaff were laughing at him. Don't pretend to be someone you'renot, especially if that person is a regular at the bar.
I’m a comic who’s going back into bartending after a decade and I’m watching these to refresh…these crack me up, glad I found a way to not get yelled at by old ladies (they get mad when you don’t remember recipes) aaaand laugh 💁♀️ thanks for the refresher.
When Brian opened the tap by accident 😂😂😂
God i love you guys. When ever I'm not in a good mood all I have to do is watch your channel and I always end up smiling and laughing.
[incessently saying "yo, bro"] Looks like someone is asking to be punched in the uterus.
I can't wait for the unedited version of this comes out!
With my 21st birthday coming up later this month I need this
Welcome to the other side. Please don't drink shots or drinks with a lot of sugar. You will get sick or die if you consume too much alcohol.
Here is some advice: Please don't drink and drive. It is not worth it. So before you go to a bar make sure you have enough money to get a safe way home if you are going alone.
@@creeping-doll5 No worries, I don't have a car anyways. I will keep that advice for the future
Your friends better buy you a muff dive
Make sure your first drink you buy you 1 remember buying it 2 the drink is something you will remember and not a simple beer .
10:20 this part cracked me up, happened with me while I was behind the bar...
Him rudely: I know the owner
Me calmly: no you don't
Him warning me: I will call him and complain
Me calmly pulling my phone out of my pocket: it's HER* and I am waiting for your call.
Him slowly leaving my bar.
Am I the only one that kept expecting Brian to break something and hurt his hands?
Good to know a Dollar a drink wasn't stingy, although I'm terrible at projecting my voice so i usually will hold my money up about an inch off the bar when I want another round. :T
Pretty sure this applies to all of food service.
I was a bartender in the 70's & 80's. Started at corner "gin mills" (beer, shots, and some basic highballs), then later at cocktail lounges and a private country club. The things listed here were the same thing that pissed us off back then. The only difference was tips. Back then, tipping bartenders was unheard of much less be expected. The only tips we ever got was when an occasional customer would leave their change when they left (usually a few coins).
Another big difference between then and now - apparently now when someone Brian's age acts the way he does, is considered cool. Back then you see someone acting that way you think to yourself, "I'm glad my son stopped acting that way when he turned 5".
I was looking for the owner of a bar once, he asked me to go check out that bar because it was the one he always hung out at (I was a regular at another one of his bars) and I asked the bartender if he was there by name and I swear you'd think I'd just said my name was David Bowie
How does Jason not break character sooner. Especially when Brians doing things like spinning a cucumber like a bottle and dropping it.
"Bro...bro...bro...." Great job, Jason. Had me and the wife in stitches. The Skillshare "ad" at the end was pretty damn good as well!
Erai Hiryuu Bro
Redbreast 12 a scotch? If Daniel hadn't picked it in the episodes you guys did about whisk(e)y. I might have forgiven you ;)
If I am being honest, you guys helped me figure out how to be so much better in social situations. One, my Dad died when I was young so I had no real-world role models. Two, I'm suffering from many mental health and social issues. (Autism being one.) Thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you do. Cheers!
Mitchell Williams That means a lot. Sincerely. I’m glad we could help!
I'm pretty sure this is my most favorite episode of M.R. EVER! I'm still laughing!
