Right Angle: Backstage [07-31-19]

Steve Green is recovering from his Democrat-debate drunkblogging, Bill Whittle from his international travels, and Scott Ott from gondoling about Irving, Texas. Meanwhile, Members have yet to recover from the absence of Right Angle during this brief hiatus. Nevertheless, the boys are about the peoples’ business of creating the regular retinue of episodes for this week.

Thank you to our Members for their patience, and for the funding which makes this tomfoolery possible.

This particular episode of BackStage was the most fun one to date. I laughed so hard I feared I would wake my sleeping hubby. Thanks for making my week worthwhile…I’m retired, so that’s not really setting the bar very high. 😛

I think Bill is referring to trifle, a sort of dessert, only made edible if large amounts of booze are poured into it. Toad in the hole is basically sausages baked into a yorkshire pudding. Yum. And as someone else mentioned, treacle is sort of molasses, and they can be substituted for each other. Golden syrup is a lighter sugar syrup, excellent for making flapjacks, which are not pancakes but an oat biscuit/bar treat.

Since we are talking about bad Broadway..well…that awful thing called Hamilton is as bad as t gets. Non music and non history abounds. It is one of those advertising miracles. People have been convinced it is good. When it is awful from one end to the other.

I have to agree with Steve that there is nothing good to say about Cats. I also have to agree with Bill that roast beef with Yorkshire pudding is some of the best grub on earth. I make a good Yorkshire pudding myself. My mom taught me, and she learned from her grandmother. The ingredients are simple, it’s the technique that does the trick. We should make some roast beef and Yorkshire pudding if stratocon ever happens.

Yep, the trick is to chill the batter and get that fat smoking hot. Beef drippings are ideal for the fat. The last time my DiL asked for them at the local supermarket, they had no idea and kept referring to them as “beef droppings”. Not the same thing, lols.

My family uses a different technique, but I have no doubt that yours works well.

It’s the tomfoolery that I look forward to most!

To anyone who says humans have the ability to change the climate and need to stop doing blah, blah, blah, I say “you first”. You go live in a cave, grow/hunt your own food, wear leaves and mud, and get your water from a river or lake. Anything less is hypocrisy because everything including your home, groceries, clothing, car or bicycle, plumbing, etc. was created by companies who burned fossil fuels to make and distribute everything you have. If they just shut their yaps they would emit less CO2!

Well worth the wait for Bill to beam back down after whatever dangerous thing he was doing.

Can’t wait for these episodes.
Scott and Steve – thank you for watching the debates so that I don’t have to. I don’t have enough brown liquor in my house to get through it.

Though as I posted on the member blog; watch out for Tulsi Gabbard. She has the ability to come across as sane, especially next to that bunch.

Its about time guys! Not listening to your daily discussions or Bill Whittle’s commentary every morning on my way to work was like having no cocktail with dinner, or summertime without a pool, or a fireplace without a fire on a cold winter’s night! Missed you guys! Now get back to work ya bums!! 😉

I always wonder that as well. I think every backstage has one downvote. I don’t understand it, it’s my favorite video every week!

Guys, the “kinky slinky” nearly falling off my chair with laughter, and then Gluteus Maximus finished the job. That was just so much FUN! Thank you all so much. If these episodes were all that’s offered, it would still be worth my subscription…but don’t take that too seriously and stop the other content…okay?

Your Nan and my Mama Lowrey would have gotten along just fine. My paternal grandma raised me and was literally the best thing that could have happened in my life. She graced me with her deep common sense and a large part of her sense of humor, which I’ve expanded upon as best I can. She also had a heart as big as all outdoors and was quite outspoken at times, which she also passed on to me. What a wonderful, independent, loving woman and that’s exactly how I hope to be remembered, as well.

Bill is thinking of Trifle. (Like Bill, we Australians have a part-British heritage).

Oops. Meant to add extremists before here. Extremism screws up ones editing skills.

What’s this?
I can edit my reply but not my original post?

OG, you should be able to edit both, but it might take a screen refresh to see the edit link, because…technical jargon.

Think that’s the time mark for when you guys did the “opening.” You need some coffee, Scott. BTW, if you become a Ham Radio guy you can use the slinky as a makeshift antenna…
