Please do one of the drinks from game Hades
Sure you just misspoke, but a pint is half a quart. Love these videos though😁
If you don't mind me putting in my two cents, not bashing you as it's mostly due to my own love of folk singing in general, @TheLongestJohns may have had a hand in bringing these sea shanties back to the foreground. I think you fancy folks should reach out to each other and do what fancy folks do! (I'm not fancy so I wouldn't know, haha)
I got on a annual canoe trip and I make Grog for everyone. I use brown sugar and I’m a little more generous with the spiced rum. I got the recipe from the CZcams channel”Outside Xbox”.

Greg: "..a pint is two quarts.."
Me: "wut?"
Greg: still gets the ratios right
Me: "eh, close enough for naval work"
Ah yes, a sailor from the 7th Fleet.
I realize this could be a niche joke, but whatever.
Addled-brain Greg
Yeah I caught that too! 😂
Arr, that's why ye sailors be needing a metric system! 😂
Glad I wasn't the only one who caught that. Now we know why the rum is gone.
I had a large group of Sea Shanties come into my bar a few months ago late at night on like a random Tuesday. There were at least 15 of them and they took up half the bar plus a high top near by and slugged down 5 pints each and sang shanties the entire time they were there. They tipped my 30% and sang on their way our of the bar. Honestly one of the highlights of my life
Dude that's rad as hell, what a bunch of legends
I love the resurgence of the sea shanties. I have adored shanties since playing AC IV: Black Flag, and love folk songs, so I absolutely searched more songs, and ended up with some goldies
@@willemthijssen1082I did the same thing 😅
“I’m not on TikTok. Should I be?.....probably not”

@@anathemam8852 HAHAHA
With a matching cocktail to each
The U.S. Navy still had a “grog” ration when I was deployed in 1995. After 30 days at sea we were allotted 2 drinks per sailor every day past 30. We drinkers bought allotments off non-drinkers at exorbitant prices and got good and drunk. Well, as long as we didn’t have watch.
Thanks for serving our country
In a very technical sense we still do. If you're out to sea for more than 45 days with no port scheduled in 5 days, the CO can authorize a beer day. But it's never happened for me.
Was it rum and water or some other base spirit?
We went 67 days out to sea straight in 2017 and got a beer day. I never thought 2 Miller lites could hit so hard.
@@vietnamisapeninsula Dang. I would have preferred rum and water.
Fun fact about Admiral Edward Vernon: Grog is not the only thing he is famous for. He once commanded an expedition involving several companies of the Virginia militia in the 1740s. Among those soldiers under his command was a Captain Lawrence Washington, who grew to admire the Admiral. When he returned home and inherited the Little Hunting Creek Plantation, he renamed it Mt. Vernon after his former commander. His half-brother George kept the name when he inherited the plantation and so it remains today.
Good to know. So many random historical connections.
He also led an attack against the port of Cartagena de Indias, with such overwhelming force that medals were struck to commemorate the event in advance, showing the Spanish Admiral Blas de Lezo kneeling before Admiral Vernon -- "the pride of Spain humbled before Ad, Vernon".
He lost.
@@samsowden Roflmao
Kind of like various political figures in 2 politician races holding up the papers which had been printed in case of a victory by the other candidate.
I'm sure the Spanish found those metals and acquired them quickly as a way to shame the British Admiral for being so boastful and overconfident.
@@angelwhispers2060 i do have a replica, yes xD
You missed a key unavoidable ingredient in authentic grog - salt. Salt got into all of the water, so while it wasn't salt water it was definitely salty,
Interesting. The salt would impact the flavor for sure.
"Should I be on tiktok?.....

The song “wellerman” originated in New Zealand, where I’m from, so every time I hear it I get really patriotic.
All you need for a sea voyage is some sugar, tea, rum, and the extended editions of the Lord of the Rings
As a fellow Kiwi I second this statement
@WOKEN'T I am 17 so can’t vote haha
So should it be sung with a Kiwi accent instead of Scott's?
@@UnwittingSweater I think it should just be sung in your own accent, the guy on Tik Tok was Scottish so he sang in a Scottish accent
Ok, I really have to give respect for those "way-HEY"s. Sea shanties are frequently work songs, and going hard during the parts that need effort is a good nod to where they came from. I could really feel you hauling while you sang.
The Secret of Monkey Island taught me that true grog is a caustic, green, nightmare drink that'll eat through your mug in a matter of minutes
*insert leo dicaprio meme* I know this reference!
"The Wellerman" actually references an Australian shipping company, Weller Brothers, which was the main supplier of provisions to whaling stations in New Zealand and Australia.
Was wondering if it was shanty or whaling! Thanks
And they gave sugar, tea, and rum to the whalers in lieu of actually paying them a decent wage so they could afford to go home.
She had not been two weeks from shore, when down on her, a right whale bore. The captain called all hands and swore, He’d take that whale and tow.-verse 2
And “when the tonguin’ is done” refers to breaking down the whale carcass down to the tongue. So it could still be a work song just singing while cutting up a whale.
@@shinetilly mean the Chorus of the song Represents a longing for the supply ship to come and for the days work to be done
Nathan, the young man who made the tik tok everyone duetted off, was signed to Polydor Records!
I saw that he quit his day job. Good for him. He has a nice voice. It wouldn't have gone as viral if he had biffed it.
OH HECK YES!!!!!! Good for him!
@@RobertHeadley Yeah, he was a postie before - he still said he'd probably go back to being a postie if music didn't end up working out for him cos he enjoyed it, iirc.
Good for him. He has a very pleasing voice
Funny how sea shanties are "all the rage" now, but 5 or so years ago when Assassins creed black flag came out and literally had 20+ addictively lovely shanties ot went nowhere.
Tik-Tok and CZcams shorts are a better launching pad for it.
If a good -and popular- remake of Black Flag would come out today you would have a good chance they would be popular as well. The same goes for the music in Red dead 2.
I thought I heard the old man say-
*leave 'er Johnny leave 'er*
For tomorrow ye will get yer pay
*and its time for us to leave 'er"
@@starlight4649 😭it's too soon!
It's the cancer of TikTok that made specifically Wellerman popular. A Fo'c'sle shanty.
@@qalbi_ibn_lari disagree.
That OG animated Ricki Tikki Tavi clip gives me both the Nostalgia’s and fills my soul with happiness.
Today I learned that the Spongebob theme song is a proper sea shantie.
It is, though what do you do with a drunken sailor is a drinking song, not a work song
@@justynh1321 Drunken Sailor was Mr. Crab's leitmotif, He means the intro song is a shanty
Edit: I take that last part back, went crosseyed while reading your comment
Oh yeah 😳
Not just the theme but legit ALL of the music used in the show
WHO LIVES IN A PINEAPPLE UNDA DA SEAAA
I can't be the only one who's been listening to The Longest John's since this damn thing began.
My Sea Shanty craze was back in the early summer and Im so happy it got popular
@@critter8132 same, its so cool that it became a thing
You are not alone. I was confused why this video wasn't just related to them being great.
Or a few years early...
Exactly, I’m a tad pissed that he didn’t attribute the song to the longest John’s, or the New Zealanders who originally wrote it
The whole seaman thing reminded me about a fun fact about sea voyages and booze: The Norwegian aquavit called Linie, or Linje (which means Line), is traditionally sent on a long sea voyage across the equator. The people who started this tradition had noticed that the spirits tasted much better after returning from said voyage. So, they started sending barrels of the stuff on ships from Norway to Australia and back, thus crossing the equator (the 'line') twice. Apparently, something about the movement, humidity, and fluctuating temperatures added flavour and caused the maturing of the spirits to happen much faster. They've tried to replicate the process, but apparently nothing compares to the real deal, so to this day, barrels of Linie Aquavit are sent on this journey before being bottled up, ready to be sold!
For those interested in some cool history, The Longest Johns who originally recorded Wellerman which Nathan Evans covered made a song called Fire and Flame about the Halifax explosion in 1917. A French cargo ship named Mont-Blanc bringing munitions collided with a ship leaving the harbor of Halifax, Canada. The Mont-Blanc caught fire and eventually exploded, effectively leveling a large portion of the town and killing nearly 2000. The force was so great that Mont-Blanc was utterly destroyed, and its anchor was found launched 3.2 kilometers away.
Thats one of my favorite songs from them but that whole album together is on another level
@@zpm29 Moby Duck is really up there

The morsecode operator saw what was happenning and rather the running to safety stayed at his post and sent message to an incoming train ,making it stop and saving many peoples lives.
Today I found out that Greg's singing voice was apparently made for sea shanties. What a great show!
When he started singing "blow the man down" I literally ascended to another plane of existence. Thank you Captain. ❤️😭❤️👑
The second drink gets better with every sip. My goodness is it absolutely delicious. People that don’t even like rum love it. 100 percent recommend people
Rum was illegal in England, because it was produced almost entirelly in Spanish colonies.
Back then England and Spain were mortal enemies, so, no imports from them.
And the englishmen had a strong sense of national pride, so smuglled rum was very rare indeed.
Leading to (or at least helping along) the popularity of Gin.
And when the world needed him most... He appeared.
The Grog Man, Greg, appears.
You watch for the drinks and leave with so much knowledge you never expected... this is why I love this channel.
Didn’t realize I was watching in 720p until the slow messy pouring started. Then I was ecstatic seeing 2160 in the video settings. Now I see with eyes unclouded by low res and it is glorious. 🥃🧊🥄😍
It is made of "a secret mixture that contains one or more of the following: Kerosene, Propylene Glycol, Artificial Sweeteners, Sulfuric Acid, Rum, Acetone, Battery Acid, red dye#2, SCUMM, Axle grease and/or pepperoni". Mmmmm Grog
Quality
i prefer my grog with real sugar. artificial sweeteners can cause cancer ya know
I see you, im not gonna spoil it, but know that I know, and now we we know together.
@@FISHYFILMPRODUCTIONS Make that three
Don’t forget Kroil... gotta have Kroil in it. Tradesmen will know what I’m talking about
He's back!
Right!!! I've been very impatiently waiting for this.
Smith and Cross is amazing. It's also 57 ABV, because it's navy strength. That's rum speak for barrel strength. It has these wonderful coconut, banana, caramel notes on the nose and is surprisingly smooth for a 57% alcohol spitit.
It's also less than 30 bucks.
Luring us in with a cocktail and foisting upon us a history lesson... as usual... I love it.
A mug of this after a full day of stonks. Future viewers will remember the day.
"You need certain things to taste other things"
I believe it is the contrast!
In painting/visual art if you want to make a colour feel cold, you contrast it with a warm colour. Having something else to juxtapose the initial thing you want to focus on helps draw more attention to it.
So essentially details are important?
Hi Grog...sorry, Greg. I guess that's because of a lot of grogs in the episode. Do you have the FLAVOR MATRIX book? Since you already mentioned how certain foods need other things to shine. Great book to find inspirations for cocktail pairing as well. I enjoyed this episode a lot. The singing too! Cheers!
If Greg is looking for suggestions in the comments I would love to see him mix his own Mountain Dew! Not the soft drink, but the moonshine distilled in the mountains from which the original name of mountain dew comes from. Extra points for making a moonshine that mixes well with the green hell juice that gamers enjoy with doritos.
And here I thought grog was named after Grog Strongjaw
Perhaps in the world of Exandria ;)
and it would be invented by Pike when she was sailing on The Broken Howl to remind her of her best pal.
The one, the only!
canon.
I would like to rage/drink
I was just thinking the other day, "Hey Greg hasn't put out a video in a while. Weird, but hope he's just on vacation." Glad to have you back.
Oh, hey, that wasn't just me.
Did "shantie" come from the French "chanter" or the English "chant"? Well, the English "chant" came from the French "chanter," so...
Also, a lot of sailors' vocabulary borrowed French words and bastardized them a bit (ie. "parler" = "parlay" or "parlee"), so it's more likely it was directly from French rather than indirectly from French through English.
Stan Rogers..."Rolling Down To Old Maui"...you're welcome.
I'm so glad The Longest Johns and the shanty community is getting the love they deserve
One more for The Longest Johns! I've been a fan of shanties and other seafaring songs since before Black Flag was released.
Funny story, when I worked overnights at walmart, I taught my coworkers several short haul shanties and lead them as we down stacked pallets to keep everyone moving and generally in the same time. Eventually Assistant Manager Short, Squat, and Stupid told me to cut it out as it was "disruptive," but made the mistake of saying "no more shanties" after I tried explaining. So I complied, no more shanties. I taught them fo'c'sle songs instead and got away with it for another three months until said assistant manager decided to actually show up and do her job again.

”We'll fake it in the close up."
Of course, you wouldn't have to fake it if you spilled less...
At this point I feel like he has to be doing it on purpose because its what we all expect.
@@IanRosevear I mean it looks really nice when he spills
What you're talking about with sugar bringing out other flavors is a huge thing in the tea tasting communities. Fruit flavors, especially, sing when sugar's in the mix.
I actually have my own version of The Wellerman. It's essentially an Old Fashioned but sub rum for whiskey and I use this Earl Gray syrup I have. It's surprisingly good for what's literally sugar and tea and rum!
Oh, the year was 1778/
How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now/
A letter of marque came down from the king/ to the scummiest vessel I ever seen/ God damn them all! I was told we'd cruise the seas for american gold/ we'd fired no guns/ shed no tears/ now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier/ the last of Barrett's Privateers.
A folk song from the 1970’s that sounds a lot like an old shanty
The perfect song for cheap beers and a Wednesday night
@@howtodrink stan rogers is a national treasure
I’ma real short man on a Halifax wharf, the last of Barrett’s private dwarfs.....
Ah my favorite Stan Rogers
LOVE the history lessons for these kind of episodes! It's great to get a back story about how these drinks would have come about and be able to see the historical influence within each drink. Great episode!
Holy crap, Greg, you've got a great voice for sea shanties! I'm a lover of Ye Banished Privateers and their shanties myself - they stay very true to form as far as the trademark bawdy lyrics go. Keep on, ye hogeye landlubbing shanteyman, and may yer rum rations never run dry!
during your discussion of the navy's use of Grog, I remembered a lyric from a song called Charley Mops, supposedly about the man who invented beer
"If its good enough for the navy well its bloody well good enough for me."
Greg. As a US Navy sailor, I have to inform you that we pronounce fo'c'sle with a long O sounding more like "foe''.
As another USN vet, I verify the above statement as accurate. Also the constant mispronouncing of fo'c'sle wrong was driving me bananas in the video.
@@nathanieltokich9883 SFMF
As a Leatherneck that has spent a whole lot of time at sea, I can also verify the pronunciation. It was giving me a twitch. 😄
I love this channel, and every Sailor should watch it to drink better! 😂 But yes, his forecastle pronunciation was killing me. For everyone’s help:
Forecastle: foke-sel
Gunwale: gunnel
Starboard: starbrd
Can any other Sailors recall other mispronunciations that drive them nuts?
Active duty Sailor here too. Was specifically looking for this comment! I cringed at every mention of the “fox-sel” 😖😅
“I can’t say, ‘hold fast, me hearties...’ without slipping into a pirate voice”
I can’t say “mango” without immediately saying “MADNESS!” in a Macho Man Randy Savage voice.
Ha, nice!
My favorite shanty type song is and forever will be “Randy Dandy Oh” from Assassins Creed Black Flag 🏴☠️
The Dreadnaughts have a great version of it. Check them out.
Black Flag, such an underrated beauty of a game, best Pirate experience since Sid Meier's Pirates: Gold Edition.
LOOOOOWLAAAAAAANDS~! LOWLAANDS AWAAAAY ME JOHNN! My personal fave
Are we ignoring how good his singing at the beginning was?
While there's nothing wrong with that particular song... There are so many different shanties to explore! I even wrote a shanty for my D&D game. :P
Could you share?
Have too many wellerman cocktails and the boys'll be singing What Do We Do With a Drunken Sailor?
Thats y short row by the way
David Coffin - "Roll the Old Chariot" the best of the best.
Greg singing is Just pure gold
Last time i was this early the rum wasn't empty
One of the eternal questions of life - Why is the rum always gone?
I really enjoy how historical your videos can be. It makes the drinks so much more enticing.
Greg, This was actually one of your best videos. It was timely, had some very good info, several drinks and perfectly committed bits. Good Job.
Talking about Grog, Please make Strongjaw Ale.
If anyone really wants to get into shanties, go watch The Longest Johns. They do fantastic covers!
Ive loved sea shanties for years and might I say as a true shanty purist, I love that everyone else is liking them too! I cant wait to see the cool music people make while its popular
I had forgotten how much I enjoy watching your videos. You are amazing! Thank you for all of the effort that you put into this channel!!
Is this the first time music theory youtube beat cocktail youtube to the punch on a rum-related trend?
Because of mercantilism, by which no trade between colonies and nations other than their colonisers was legal, the only rum available to England prior to securing a rum producing colony would have to have been smuggled by rum runners and thus unviable to the utterly massive british navy.
Greg... You're the best. thanks for doing what you do. It brings me joy
Glad to see you back, love the drinks
Welcome back, Cap'n
lol somehow everyone has been singing Sea Shanties lately and it's awesome. This is gonna be a great episode.
Yes!! Thanks for doing what you do, and I am glad to see you back in 2021.
Still loving this channel. Makes the old lockdown here in the UK that bit more bearable. Cheers, Matie!
If you’re a fan of the channel, you knew for sure there would be singing in the beginning of this one
I figured shanties would end up here
So happy to have you back!
I love learning and being thoroughly entertained
you missed explaining the term “Limey”.
They did that in their gimlet episode.
Limes were cheaper than lemons, so the royal navy bought limes.
British sailors would often get scurvy, so they sucked on limes while they were out at sea to prevent it
As someone who’s on his way to the Navy, this appealed to me. I missed you Greg
Fun info - A billy/bully of tea is actually an old tea pot sailors would use. A lot of those songs are like tired workers wanting a tea break or beer
I love the episodes with extra history peppered in! Good stuff!

Thanks for brightening an otherwise grim Monday morning Greg!
I've noticed you've done a ton of topics, and you read the comments, so, a lot of Indian New year's are coming up in February / March, maybe in honor of that you could do something India themed?
For instance the Toit Pub in Bengaluru has Ragi millet beer.
Awesome video looking forward to your next one 🥃
Alcohol and Sea Shanties? This is perfect.
Green tea would in fact be more period appropriate! I was actually just researching this for a project of my own the other day. Apparently black tea as we know it most likely wasn't actually developed until the early 1800s. Any references to "black tea" from before then would actually be referring to something like an oolong - partially oxidized green tea, with a flavor somewhere between green tea and what we would call a black tea.
I had grog in Prague on a cold winter's day many years ago, which was served with warm (at least 75 degrees centigrade) water, as well as sugar and lemon to be added as one desired. That was a highly excellent warmer. I'd probably do simple syrup instead of straight sugar for a cold drink, though, for ease of dissolution of the sugar.
Greg, where have you been? We missed ya!
best rendition of the wellerman i have heard is by the "longest johns"
Glad to see you back!
What a great episode! It has it all! Thank you Greg!
he's alive!!
Video request: please make a few drinks with Irish cream! I recently tried a concoction named the Irish cactus: 1 part anejo, 2 parts Irish cream. Definitely opened my eyes to the versatility of Irish cream and I think it’d make a fun video.
Appreciate all the work you do man. Keep up the great work!
Good to have you back Greg!
May the Wellerman bring you all the Full Proof and Antique 107 you may want
Greg, brother, it's pronounced "FOHK-səl". Trust me, I spend years on the Foc'sle of Navy ships as a Bosn's Mate.
After watching this a few times, I went to CZcams to find cool sea shanties. Didn't find one that had that authentic grunt of effort like Greg's. :)
I never get excited for a youtube upload until I subscribed to you. You are genuinely one of the most unique and funny channels on CZcams and the quality is so amazing that it doesn't feel like watching a CZcams video. Keep up the fantastic and AMAZING work
Quick question; Do I HAVE to spill my liquor all over the place when making cocktails for the end result to be considered authentic? Or, can I pour it carefully and achieve the same finished product?
You spill some for the mates' that went down in the sea.
