Transcript: Almond Ice Cream With Matt and Kim

Printable version

Dinner with the band
Episode “Almond Ice cream”

Sam: Alright this cobbler is done, I figured for Matt and Kim we would make a little almond ice cream to go with it. I think almonds and olives go really well together. It is going to be really simple. We have nine ounces of toasted almonds, we have twelve egg yolks, and we have a cup and a half of sugar. This is a pinch of salt, I know because I measured it myself.
Two tablespoons of almond extract two and a half cups of milk. And five cups of heavy cream. So this is a lightweight recipe that we are doing, for all you dieters. Alright this is pretty simple. I am just going to do it like that. There you go almond ice cream. Hey you guys get in here. We got ice cream and olives.
Kim: It will be gone shortly don’t worry.
Sam: Ha-ha, let’s see you know what? Pretend like it tastes good.
Matt: It actually does taste good, really good.
Kim: And you doubted him.
Matt: I didn’t, well yeah, yeah.
Sam: Well no he still doubts me.
Kim: This is awesome.
Sam: Yeah that’s good.
Matt: No it really is. It really is.
Sam: You’re not really joking, what um…
Matt: Except I got a lot of cavities and the cold and the hot really kind of makes my teeth go crazy.
Sam: Mash them with your tongue, go luke warm with them. You guys got new, new stuff coming out right?
Matt: We are working on new stuff which we are super stoked about because the stuff that we have written and released we have wrote within the first year we learned how to play our instruments. When we started this band, neither one of us knew how to play, really play.
Kim: Well we still kind of…
Matt: Yeah I guess it’s questionable. But um, Kim had never played drums, I had never played keyboard.
Sam: How long ago was that?
Matt: It was about three years ago, I guess.
Sam: There is only one album out at this point correct.
Matt: Yeah we recorded, we had a thing were we toured with Dough for hundreds of shows before that so.
Kim: Like we went around the US a few times like c’mon, don’t you want the other one?
Sam: No we relabeled it. We changed all the names of the songs.
Kim: Well actually the first three thousand have individual copy stamps, or coffee stains, um, that I have mastered the touch of shaking and getting a good stain. But then after three thousand we kind of had to stop doing that because…
Sam: You run out of coffee?
Kim: It was actually a god reason for me to start drinking coffee again.
Matt: I made her stop because she had gnarly coffee breath.
Sam: Oh well at least you guys don’t smoke.
Kim: No.
Matt: That is true.
Sam: So you guys excited about the trip? You got your passports lined up?
Matt: Do we have our work permits?
Sam: I want to see your passport pictures.
Matt: Oh you want to see, you got to see Kim’s. The person at the passport office actually took the picture looked at it and asked Kim if she wanted to take another one. And you know how much they hate taking a second one. And Kim’s like, naw.
Sam: You sure?
Matt: It does look like a mug shot photo. Where she is like greasy and…
Kim: Well I am always greasy so I am just trying to keep it real. I had never seen this. So that thing made, I had no idea where ice cream came from.
Sam: It comes from the ice cream fairies.
Matt: That’s what I thought, I grew up in Vermont.
Sam: I just called myself a fairy. That was great.
Matt: Yeah, yeah you did. The home of Ben and Jerry’s I think that’s all people know about Vermont, is Ben and Jerry’s and the band Phish. And they are just like yeah you just hand out with the Ben and Jerry’s factory and go see Phish every day. Yeah pretty much.
Sam: So that’s what happens.
Matt: But that’s where I thought that magical ice cream fairies were.
Sam: The batch ice cream that we made probably makes two times that tub. Breathe!
Matt: An olive.
Sam: Hold your hands up so we know your choking.
Kim: No actually that’s what you are supposed to do when you are choking.
Sam: Everybody knows he is choking. He is choking! Look at that guy he is choking.
Matt: You totally, your olive, ah you got stuff stuck between your teeth. Um you left a live pit in there and it killed me.
Kim: I did.
Sam: Oh your evil, you swallowed it.
Matt: It’s gone man, no big deal.
Sam: We don’t know the Heimlich maneuver. The camera man knows the Heimlich maneuver but he won’t stop filming. She is squeaking! I think you broke her! I got to get you guys out of here before you hyper ventilate. I guess that’s it guys, I want to thank Matt and Kim for coming and hanging out with me, playing in my apartment. Ah I won’t get to see you guys for like a month, or two months. But when you guys come back you have to share some road stories.
Kim: Oh I bet you there will be some road stories.
Sam: Alright thanks everybody we will see you soon. I am going to eat this.
Kim: Yeah, oh yeah, clink, clink.
