  • Refresh My Memory – Heat
    HEAT

    This week we’re talking about 1995’s Heat and it couldn’t be a more 1995 movie – big stars, big action and even bigger acting.

    Jason Dedrick, Eric Fell and Vicky Van are back with their memories of a movie that’s more over the top than the 1987 film Over the Top.

    There will also be drinks. One of which is the Great A**. Described by one person as starting as an in-your-face Pacino and ending as a smooth DeNiro.

    Want to make it? Here’s the recipe…

    • 3 oz Empress gin (you can use regular gin but it won’t be as blue)
    • 1 oz Fireball cinnamon whiskey
    • And enough tonic to fill a highball glass filled with ice
    • Mix together, stir and let the regrets begin.
    • If you make the drink or come up with one of your own, please send a picture by clicking here! Even if you don’t, we’d still love to hear from you.

    • Refresh My Memory – Casablanca
      CASABLANCA

      Welcome to Refresh My Memory where we’re talking about 1943’s Casablanca. Oh…you’re downloading the podcast because if you don’t, you’ll regret it – maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but next Tuesday at the latest.

      Jason Dedrick, Eric Fell and Vicky Van are back, yakking about their memories of one of the greatest movies of all time. Or is it?

      (Spoilers: It is.)

      There will also be drinks – one of which is the Gin Rickey. Want to make it? Here’s the recipe:

      • 2 oz. of gin
      • 1/2 oz. each of fresh squeezed lime juice and club soda
      • Put them all in a highball glass with ice, give it a stir and if you have room for two lime slices, all the better
      • Need it sweeter? Add some simple syrup if your papers are in order.
      • If you make the drink or come up with one of your own, please send a picture by clicking here! Even if you don’t, we’d still love to hear from you.

      • Refresh My Memory – Raiders of the Lost Ark
        RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK

        Welcome to Refresh My Memory where we mix movies and refreshments with three hosts that are such treasures they belong in a museum, Jason Dedrick, Eric Fell and Vicky Van.

        They’ll be talking about the classic 1981 Lucas/Spielberg tale of Nazis vs. a box. Refreshments appearing in the film will be served and discussed.

        If you’d like to make the “I Think Marion’s Got A Drinking Problem” cocktail, here’s the recipe…

        • Take an Old Fashioned which is 1 1/2 oz bourbon or rye whiskey, 1 sugar cube, 2 dashes Angostura bitters and water.
        • Pour the bitters and water on the sugar cube and muddle/crush it at the bottom of an old fashioned glass.
        • Fill with a large round ice cube that looks like a rolling boulder.
        • Add the whiskey/bourbon and top with a green gummy worm and pretend it’s a snake.
        • If you make the drink or come up with one of your own, please send a picture by clicking here! Even if you don’t, we’d still love to hear from you.

        • Refresh My Memory – Jaws

          Welcome to Refresh My Memory – where we mix movies and refreshments!

          Will it work? Only time will tell. And maybe the Comments Section.

          Your biting hosts are Jason Dedrick, Eric Fell and Vicki Van. They’ll be discussing the 1975 Stephen Spielberg classic tale of shark vs. character actors. Refreshments appearing in the film will be served and discussed.

          If you’d like to make the “You’re Gonna Need a Bigger Glass” drink discussed in the episode, here’s the recipe:

          • Take a Blue Hawaii (not a Blue Hawaiian) which is:
            • 3/4 ounce vodka
            • 3/4 ounce light rum
            • 1/2 ounce blue curaçao
            • 3 ounces pineapple juice
            • 1 ounce sweet and sour mix (or simple syrup)
            • Blend together with ice
            • Chop up an Amerena cherry in syrup and sprinkle on the drink (to simulate a shark attack)
            • Let some of the syrup pour down the sides of the glass – enough to get the beach shut down
              • Maraschino cherries are also fine
              • Top with a gummy candy shark
              • A salted rim is both optional and we forgot to do it in our version
              • If you make the drink or come up with one of your own, please send a picture by clicking here! Even of you don’t, we’d still love to hear from you.
