Speaker 1 (00:02):
This is the fantasy football dudes podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
What is up, my dudes?
This is Trent with the fantasyfootball dudes podcast.
I am joined by Phil Jordan andSeth and we are doing a draft
here today, a good old fashioneddudes draft.
Today's draft is going to bework potlucks, so things you
would take to a work potluck andto just recap the draft.
We're not gonna recap lastweek's draft, we're gonna go
straight into the draft order.

(00:25):
I had someone say that, hey, Ilisten to all these drafts.
You guys give away the resultsand I haven't listened to that
draft yet.
So people who go back, maybethat's right.

Speaker 3 (00:34):
Maybe that's not.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
I don't know, but last week's midnight snacks
draft.
How about you listen to ourstuff on time?
They should listen on time.
So I'm fine, I'll run through.

Speaker 4 (00:42):
You don't prioritize us.
I don't care.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Our winner was team four.
Well, some of it's new peoplewho just have never heard us
before, you know what I'm saying.
Oh, I do care then I apologize.
Team four won with 45% of thevotes.
The guy who actually had amidnight snack draft and it,
like you know, go extra likeeveryone else and get in the car
.
I had pizza ice cream and Oreos.
In second place was team three,with 29% of the votes.
They had cookies, taco truckand peanut butter pretzels.

(01:06):
Jordan, you only went outsideof the house one time.
I think that's why you won.
And then team one.

Speaker 4 (01:10):
Everyone eats tacos at midnight right.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
Taco truck.
Yes, jordan did not win, evenin Nebraska.
No, jordan took second Teamthree.
Well, those guys don't know.
Third place was team one with20% of the votes.
Cementose crunch, Taco Bell andDenny's grand slam.

Speaker 3 (01:28):
I'm surprised that one didn't win.
Honestly, that's a good.
Whose team was?

Speaker 2 (01:31):
that and they'll probably answer your question.
Team two with 4% of the votespopcorn, milkshakes and
blueberries.
I think you lost it withblueberries.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
You also put up a smoothie instead of a milkshake,
so that's kind of a problem.
No, that's a milkshake.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
That's a strawberry milkshake.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
It looks like.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
They don't put whipping cream in a milkshake,
in a smoothie.

Speaker 5 (01:47):
I can see you doing that In some places.
Mike Jordan does.
Jordan puts whipping cream ineverything.
That's not fair.

Speaker 3 (01:52):
So there's a place in town that definitely does.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
Someone said team two had the worst draft of all time
.
This is what Steve fromMichigan said, so I'm sorry
about that, seth.
Sorry, you had to hear that.

Speaker 5 (02:00):
He also lives in Michigan, so yeah, oh man shots
fired.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
Hey man, easy, easy boys going on here.
He's got his mud dog shirt on.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Speaking of Michigan guys, the modern man's a man who
takes care of himself.
Manscaping isn't just for life,special occasions.
It's a requirement for optimalhealth and spear hygiene and
healthy self-esteem.
You now have the right toolsfor safe and precise grooming
and hard navigate sense of areasIntroduced.
20% for 20% off your wholeentire order.
They got the weed whacker.
They got the lawnmower 4.0.
It has a flashlight.

(02:30):
They got boxers.
They got it all.
Lip gloss, everything Go toManscape.
Tell them the dude's.
20% off that whole entire order.
So today's draft you say lipgloss.
They got lip gloss, chapstick,lip gloss.

Speaker 5 (02:42):
I don't know what's going on.
Lip gloss, what the Lip gloss?
No one people on Manscapearen't nine year old girls
buying lip gloss Lip balm, Ithink, is like You're probably
buys lip gloss Chapstick.
It's just chapstick.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
Lip gloss.

Speaker 5 (02:56):
All right.
Well, what's?

Speaker 3 (02:57):
the trend calls it.
Can you pay us for that lipgloss?

Speaker 5 (02:59):
Even that lip gloss that plumps my lips.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
Yeah, he burns a little more.
He's a girl dad, so that'sprobably All right.
This is weird, seth, and Iwouldn't say that.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
The draft order will be me, Jordan, Phil, then Seth.
That's a little complicatedlike that, but we're doing work,
potluck okay.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
So why do you like potlucks?

Speaker 1 (03:14):
I like potlucks because Trent loves free food.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
I work from home, so technically every day's a
potluck for me.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Here's the deal, though, with work potlucks.
There's a sense of mystery,sense of mystery.
Adventure.
You don't know what you'regonna get.
It could be really good.
Maybe it's not very good, but IYou're basically walking into
someone's home.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (03:35):
Yes, you are For the good or the bad of the situation
.
Yes, and there's always someoneyou're like yeah, I probably
don't wanna touch that person's.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
It's kind of like oh, they brought that, Maybe I
don't want it yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
You know what I'm saying?
Did they wash their handsbefore they made it?
That's why it's best to know Inever worry about that.

Speaker 5 (03:48):
That's why it's best to know.
You don't wanna know whobrought it.
You don't wanna know whobrought it.

Speaker 3 (03:52):
I would rather not know, but you also kinda want
there to be names on it also.
You know what I'm saying.
So you can blame if it sucks.
Yeah, yeah, blame if it sucks,and you can't push it off like
oh yeah, that was so and so notme.

Speaker 4 (04:06):
Yeah so.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
And these are.
You know, people are alreadygetting ready for the holidays
trend.
It's August.
Can you believe that?

Speaker 2 (04:11):
Yeah, I think a potluck for a fancy football
draft is pretty good too.
Wait, when's the next holiday?

Speaker 5 (04:18):
That's what I'm saying.
People are there's already.
When is the next holiday?

Speaker 3 (04:20):
I would consider.
I would consider Halloween.
I would consider Halloween aholiday.

Speaker 5 (04:25):
Like almost three months away.

Speaker 3 (04:26):
I was at Walmart today.
They had a bunch of Halloweenstuff which is crazy, isn't it?
All I'm saying is the reasonthat we're doing one of the
things is that potlucks prettycommon around the holidays.
Is what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
But they're also pretty common for drafts, which
that's probably what weshould've just talked about.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
I don't know if they are common.

Speaker 3 (04:43):
I was terrible at common.
You just enter into this banterYou're instead of starting to
do some research, so I'm gonnado my first draft.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
I'm gonna do my first pick here and I there's a lot
of ways you can spin this right.
So there's work potlucks thateveryone brings a side dish.
There's work potlucks when youknow you bring a main course.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
It all depends you sign up for something.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
You could sign up yeah, or there's mystery
Intrigue.
I don't think I'm gonna go withmy dessert as the 101, though
I'm gonna go with a.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
You might be able to get that back around.
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
I think I'm gonna get it back.
So we're going three roundshere.
I'm gonna go with chips andsalsa.
I think that's a solid workpotluck thing to bring.

Speaker 4 (05:18):
Do you not?

Speaker 5 (05:18):
like that.
I think that's a horrible thing.
You don't like it.
You don't like chips and salsa.
No, it better be a big bowlwith a lot of salsa.

Speaker 3 (05:25):
Yeah, Trent, I feel like you always are a chips and
salsa guy.

Speaker 4 (05:27):
I am a chips and salsa guy Every single time
because he's a grazer, he's asnacker, I'm a grazer, he's a
chips and salsa guy and thendumps ketchup in his salsa.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
I haven't done that.
It's probably good, though.
Oh my gosh, seth is beyondhimself right now, angry.

Speaker 5 (05:44):
Like I just don't know why you doubled down on the
ketchup man I don't know.
I said chips and salsa Justdon't use the ketchup and
actually like enjoy the food anddon't Americanify it.

Speaker 2 (05:54):
Hey, america's a great country.
If you don't like it, you canleave Seth.

Speaker 5 (05:59):
America's a great country because they'll let you
put ketchup on anything you want.

Speaker 4 (06:03):
No, America's a great country because we can have
salsa and not have to putketchup on it.
We just have real salsa.
Good point, Jordan.

Speaker 3 (06:11):
The problem is this guy doesn't understand logic I
can get whatever food I want inAmerica.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
Yeah, it's true, and you can mix it up and get the
best of both worlds.

Speaker 3 (06:21):
I'm not doing it.

Speaker 2 (06:21):
My entire said that All right.
No, really.

Speaker 5 (06:25):
I believe it's Hannah Montana.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
And what are we doing here?
Jordan, You're up, You're onthe clock buddy.
Man there's a couple goodoptions here.
I don't think there's really awrong answer.

Speaker 5 (06:36):
No, there's not.

Speaker 2 (06:38):
So hey, I go to a pot .
Look, I bring chips and salsa.
No one here is eating that.
Oh I didn't?

Speaker 3 (06:43):
No, there's other grazing items that I like on
there Chips and salsa is one ofthe safest things.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
I start to reboard draft to be very good.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
Yeah, like what you go to first.

Speaker 4 (06:52):
What you go to, I'm gonna go with that's tough Chili
, no.

Speaker 1 (06:59):
I'm gonna go with wings, that's good.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
Jordan.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
That's a good one.
Wow, wow.

Speaker 4 (07:04):
Good way.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
Mike drop, drop your Mike.

Speaker 4 (07:07):
There's a couple of the other ones that I thought
there's about three that I wasreally going back and forth
between.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
No, I can't.
You can't fight with wings.
That was a huge miss by me andmy part.
Uh, we talk about wings a loton this pod.
I think we do.

Speaker 3 (07:20):
Yeah, not too much, not overly.
This is a chicken pod.

Speaker 5 (07:24):
Yeah, you have playing Pollo pod A poyo pod.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
I love when you catch Trannof guard, when you, when
you catch him at a point wherehe really has no idea what to
say Everybody.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
Drums is what I've been wanting to say flats or
drums, drums.

Speaker 5 (07:47):
No drums drums, more meat on drums, but you can.
You can eat more, so it'seasier, better about yourself,
or it doesn't matter, you justeat whatever runs chicken you
want.
Well, this is a work pot.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
Look, people might you know, judge you.
Well, I mean All right, I don'tknow, did everybody's works
experience is different workingby, I can't say what I wanted to
say.
You should practice that therest of your life.

Speaker 5 (08:14):
I think, With the water boy jersey.

Speaker 3 (08:29):
I'm gonna go with Um.
I like the.
Uh.
I'm gonna go with the chips andchips route, but I'm gonna go
with the.
I really like the buffalochicken dip that people.
I feel like that has becomemore of a potluck staple in the
last Five years when you justsay buffalo chicken, the buffalo

Speaker 4 (08:47):
chicken dip.
You know what I'm saying.
Also could have got that like athird round, but no someone
brought that king of that thoughSomeone brought that to our
draft, our first dynasty draft.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
And no one ate it.

Speaker 4 (09:00):
No, no, it's really good, I really liked it a lot.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
It's good, no one would have thought of it, but I
just, you know, I want to make,I really bring it up for
conversation.

Speaker 4 (09:08):
You know we're gonna spend the next five minutes
talking because we couldn't haveconversation five, 10 minutes
from now.
That's a really good.

Speaker 3 (09:13):
Bunch of chips, trent , and then you dip it in the
buffalo.
What kind?

Speaker 4 (09:16):
of chicken dip.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Uh, I like tortilla chip but people do pita.
Hey man, hey, no one's judginghis chip pick.
You know what I mean.
Like I did the same thingbecause it's buffalo chicken
like there's yeah meat

Speaker 1 (09:27):
to it Like there's some.

Speaker 4 (09:28):
That's the grazing aspect that we're talking about
like you could almost could havethat as like a meal, like I'm
not knowing.

Speaker 3 (09:33):
I seen you eat that on your way into work, Like
that's that.

Speaker 4 (09:37):
No, no you could get the pita bread and the buffalo
chicken dip and that's a, that'sa light lunch, dude, the pita
bread in those is pretty good.
Or just pita chips, yeah, orlike the little um, like there's
mini, like mini um bread youLike people do with the
artichoke dip, like the sametype of bread you know I'm
talking about, oh, the, are youtalking about pita chips?

(09:58):
I'm going to say pita chips.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
It's not that I know it's, it's, it's, uh, it's like
small, like loaves of, like thestuff they have at, like
maniturinium food.
Are you talking about?

Speaker 3 (10:05):

Speaker 4 (10:12):
I don't know, I got a non no tortillas.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
I know exactly what you're talking about.
It's soft.
Yeah, it's like soft and youuse it to eat hummus.
Oh yeah, no, that's not what Iwas thinking.

Speaker 5 (10:26):
Sourdough toast.

Speaker 4 (10:27):
Yeah, like, maybe like something like that
Sourdough.

Speaker 5 (10:30):
You can think of the name Like a baguette like a
small.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
Oh, Jordan's talking like the ones that you'd like,
the mini ones.

Speaker 5 (10:37):
Like you put, like the cut up tomatoes on.

Speaker 3 (10:39):
No, not the bruschetta.
No no, I know what you'retalking about.
Same deal.

Speaker 1 (10:42):
That is kind of like bruschetta bread, though.

Speaker 3 (10:43):
It's a sourdough.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
I think it's a sourdough roll or something like
that.
Yeah, go.
By far the best pick of thisround is Jordan.
He's winning the round.

Speaker 5 (10:51):
Yeah, for sure, for sure, I might win you over on
this one right here.
I don't know Blueberries, Idon't know that was a terrible
pick.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
It was Midnight snack trap Blueberries no, that was
your like.

Speaker 5 (11:02):
When there's nothing else in the house to get
blueberries.
That was his dart throw.
I'm talking about that His dartthrow.
Ok, I might win you over here,trent, so be quiet.
Nothing you could possibly winme over.
I don't know If this is morelike a local thing and like
maybe.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
Knowing you're judging me while you're talking
to me, you can't win me over theHam and Swiss sliders.

Speaker 3 (11:24):
Oh, no, yeah, exactly .
No, you're right.

Speaker 5 (11:26):
Suck on that man.
Here's the thing.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
Here's the thing, trent, that was aggressively
towards you too.
That's good, and he's trying towin you.

Speaker 5 (11:34):
The way the turn tables.
He's like that's good.
He's like oh, that's good.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
I've said that like three times in other drafts.
I said my Super Bowl food draft, so he's basically piggybacking
off my pick.

Speaker 5 (11:44):
I could have took that.

Speaker 2 (11:45):
I could have took it in the first round, but yeah,
what's the fun in taking thesame thing every single draft?

Speaker 4 (11:49):
You always take chips and salsa.

Speaker 2 (11:50):
Yeah, I took chips and guac.

Speaker 3 (11:53):
The same thing you taking chips and guac, or chips
and salsa.
No one wants to hear the samestuff.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
We should make a rule If you draft one thing one time
, you can't do it.
Oh, I've already been playingby that rule.

Speaker 3 (12:05):
That's why I took the .
I've been taking Ham and Swisssliders.
Take everyone else out, yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
OK, well, yeah, Ham and Swiss sliders, those are
great Seth Like yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:13):
Also, I love Seth, I love this guy.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
No, that's not his idea, though.

Speaker 3 (12:16):
No, no.
The problem is, seth, is thathe always comes up with a draft
and then, halfway through, he'slike well, I thought we were
doing it by these rules and it'slike you didn't say it at the
beginning.
Therefore, we're not going toplay by those rules.

Speaker 5 (12:28):
Seth asked for the parameters.
Same thing happened with themidnight snack.
I asked the parameter and hegoes oh, I don't know about that
.

Speaker 3 (12:33):
Yeah, we did the same thing with the midnight snack
draft and he was all cheesed offthat we went with some places
that were like drive-thru places, which I didn't understand.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
A cool story, man.

Speaker 1 (12:44):
OK yeah, recap this.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
Hey speaking of drafts, you know you got to get
a trophy.
We need a trophy just for ourdrafts on here.
You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 5 (12:57):
We got a lot of food drafts.
But so we should go to trophyand the last place where's a
DUNTS hat?

(13:24):
So recapping the first round Ithink Seth won.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
I think it goes Seth and then Jordan in that round.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
So chips and salsa.
Jordan took wings, phil tookbuffalo chicken dip, seth took
ham and Swiss sliders.
Ok, so here I go.
Come in here round two.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
We probably should have done an app.
A main and a dessert that'swhat we should have done.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
You're right.
You're absolutely right, Seth.
Do you want to start playinglike that right now?
You want to start playing likethat now?

Speaker 3 (13:50):
That's all right.
I've lost my opportunity.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
I am going to say lasagna, get one of those Costco
lasagnas.

Speaker 5 (13:57):
See, that is when lasagna makes me a little
nervous.
Why is?

Speaker 2 (14:00):
lasagna making nervous.

Speaker 5 (14:01):
Because some people make really good lasagna and
some people's lasagna justtastes like dog food.
I don't feel like I've had abad lasagna.
I've had a bad lasagna From whoCan't say OK, lasagna is always
good.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Are you not a lasagna guy?

Speaker 4 (14:14):
I'm going to be honest.
I kind of think that you canhave really good homemade
lasagna, like Seth said, orreally bad homemade lasagna.
The safest lasagna for a workparty is probably like the
Stofers out of the Costco.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
Yeah, or the Costco, or the Costco frozen.
Yeah, those are great.

Speaker 4 (14:28):
The frozen.
I think Stofers somewhere.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
I just had some good lasagna last week, that guy.

Speaker 4 (14:33):
Homemade lasagna can be really good, but the safe
thing is like but a work potluck.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
Go get one of those frozen lasagnas at Costco.
Throw it in the oven at work.
It smells the whole place up.
Nice, sweet Italian or homemade.

Speaker 3 (14:44):
You came over to my house a couple of times.
My mom would make those onThursday nights.
Oh, those were so good, thosewere so good, yeah, you get some
French bread.

Speaker 2 (14:51):
If you brought French bread to a potluck, that would
be gone, I agree.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
Yeah, that'd be gone.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
You took lasagna.

Speaker 2 (14:59):

be your friend.

Speaker 2 (15:20):

That'd be somebody that you'dstrive to be the same things.

Speaker 5 (15:27):
I just laugh.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
I love inside jokes.
I'd love to be a part of onesometime.

Speaker 3 (15:32):
Jordan what are you taking here, tritz battling a
battle on all fronts right nowand he's not liking it.

I can't say that.

Speaker 4 (15:45):
Jordan, you're up.

Speaker 4 (15:55):
I'm going to go.
Meatballs oh, that's goodMeatballs.

Speaker 3 (16:01):

Yeah, and like in some barbecue, barbecue sauce meatballs.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
Toothpicks yeah.

Speaker 5 (16:13):
Yeah those are good Toothpicks, those are good.
Oh, we're talking about smallmeatballs.
Small meatballs, oh, we'retalking about like big meatballs
, like, oh, like, you know, likebig meatballs like they have in
pasta.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
Yes, we all are aware of it.
Yeah, no one thought of thatexcept for you.
Ok, maybe it's just.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
Here's an idea Go get that seventh grade mind of
yours and just get rid of it andjust go.

Speaker 5 (16:34):
Ok, listen when I was in Hawaii, I went into a really
nice Italian restaurantApparently it's like a really
nice place and in my lasagna ornot lasagna in my pasta was big
meatballs, like there's threebig meatballs.
They weren't small, they'relike big ones.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Guys, you're just, you know, flexing that he went
to Hawaii.
Like we forgot what I mean.
Like you're still tan, you'restill wearing pukashell
necklaces everywhere you go, sodriving your car.

Speaker 4 (16:57):
They want their necklace back so the small
meatballs here, small meatballsand like a crock pot you can
throw some barbecue sauce.

Speaker 3 (17:03):
Yeah, those are good Teriyaki Asian yeah those Asian
ones are so good.

Speaker 2 (17:07):
Those little one of those little sausages, those are
pretty good.
Little smokies, little smokiesyeah, those are good.

Speaker 3 (17:14):
Yeah, just fine, I'm going to go with.
I'm just going to go with dipevery single time and I'm going
to some sort of dip and I'mgoing to see where I end up
landing.
I'm going to go with.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
Last.

Speaker 3 (17:23):
Peter and hummus.

Speaker 4 (17:26):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (17:26):
Why.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
Why.

Speaker 4 (17:32):
It's like you actively try to lose these
drafts.

Speaker 3 (17:36):
I was on a streak there for a short second.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
Yeah, the streak is clearly over.

Speaker 5 (17:40):
It's like Phil's in a marathon and he ties his
shoelaces together.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (17:44):
There's been some times where there's more recent
potlucks I love going to.
I trust all the people that I'menjoying food with, but there
have been potlucks before in thepast, like way back in the day,
where I've been like man, Idon't, I'm just going to graze
because I don't trust anythingDo you guys get what I'm saying
a little bit, so does that meanyou still like eat the food and
swallow it Right Like you'redigesting the food?

(18:07):
No, no, I'm saying like I onlyeat things that are packaged.

Speaker 2 (18:11):
Like if someone opens , that is such a sad, pathetic
life, Live life.

Speaker 5 (18:15):
on the edge.
You bum, you just graze, youknow enjoy it.

Speaker 3 (18:18):
That's pathetic.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
You're only eating stuff in a package you don't
like hummus, I do like hummus,but the fact that you went to a
potluck and you admitted it andyou're like, yeah, I'm only
having that because it's a lunchbowl, so that's sealed that
because it's chips.

Speaker 3 (18:32):
This like this lady slaved all night.
I was going to say cold cutsnext.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
Someone does a you know slaves away on a lasagna
and you're like yeah, well, thatwasn't packaged.
I'm not eating it.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
That's my next one.
That's my next one.
All right, let's move on.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
Can we all agree that's a sad life to only eat
stuff out of a package at apotluck?

Speaker 3 (18:51):
No, I said that was my younger years, my younger
years I was not wise.
Okay, I'm glad you've grown up.

Speaker 2 (18:56):
I've grown up now.

Speaker 3 (18:57):
No, I like to ride the ride.
The risky wave Seth, what do?

Speaker 2 (19:00):
you take I'm going to hit guys over here passing
secrets.
That is immature.
We should have a no secretscause.

Speaker 3 (19:06):
They're being weird.

Speaker 5 (19:08):
I am going to take something that is gone at every
single potluck.
It is.
I'm going to take my dessert.
It's going to be gone everysingle time.
Brownies See those, get clearedout.

Speaker 2 (19:19):
They do Brownies are gone Every time, every potluck.
That is the only thing that Iwill look at and ask who made
those?
Wait, really, I'll say hey, whomade the brownies?
It's just, it's a sick world,it turns out, it's probably
going to be a Ghirardelli one,most likely.

Speaker 4 (19:34):
Yeah, those are really good.
The one in the boxes, they'reactually really good.
The.

Speaker 5 (19:38):
Ghirardelli triple chocolate, man that's normally I
like homemade stuff.

Speaker 4 (19:42):
It's those Ghirardelli boxes.
Yeah, dude, whipped cream, thewhipped cream, I think I would
just use these.

Speaker 2 (19:47):
guys Gives an X, pick is a 12 pack of cream.

Speaker 3 (19:52):
That's what we should do.
It like a Christmas.
You guys are judging thewhipped cream without trying it.
No, it's cream.
When you get it, I'm not goingto yeah, never mind.
Thank you, Phil.

Speaker 2 (20:04):
No, it's a brownies.
Do you eat the?

Speaker 3 (20:06):
tub whipped cream, or do you only the?

Speaker 2 (20:08):
canister.

Speaker 3 (20:09):
The cans way more fun .

Speaker 2 (20:10):
You got to get the pocket one I'm going to use the
can of whipped cream for a trip.
I love that noise.
Recapping the second round, wegot lasagna.

Speaker 3 (20:19):
Seth has not, oh Seth .

Speaker 2 (20:20):
Sorry, just follow with the draft for a minute here
I'm struggling.

Speaker 3 (20:24):
It's late lasagna.
I'm barely in the straps.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
Meatballs, pita, hummus and brownies.
I might win this one.
I don't think you are.

Speaker 3 (20:33):
I think you're going to take cold cuts.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
That's going to be my next one, guys.
You know, with fancy footballaround the corner, we got DFS.
And DFS doesn't just put.
It's not only fancy football,they got all kinds of stuff on
there.
They did a hot dog eatingcompetition on the 4th of July.
Our favorite place for DFS isunderdog.
Go to underdog, enter dudes andthey will match up to $100.
Guys, really helps us out.
It's just, it's best ballseason.

(20:56):
Draft it and forget it.
No setting lineups, no trades,no waivers Best ball.
It's a lot of fun.
Great way to get ready for yourfancy football draft.
Go to underdog inter promo codedudes and they will match up to
$100.
Is it dudes or is it dudes 100?
Dudes 100.
Dudes 100.
I'm so sorry.

Speaker 4 (21:15):
For underdog?
I'm not sure.
We should probably get thatstraightened out.

Speaker 2 (21:18):
Yeah, we'll figure that out, just try them both.
Okay, it's dudes 100.

Speaker 3 (21:22):
Okay, go Jordan.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
No, it's me.

Speaker 3 (21:26):
Dude, oh, he fell, okay, go Trent.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
Here's the idea.
Either host the show and figureout how to run it or keep your
mouth shut.
Go Trent.

Speaker 3 (21:37):
Put on your helmet, Phil.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
I'm going to go with puppy chow.
Puppy chow is great.

Speaker 1 (21:43):
It's the ultimate grazing tool Are you talking
about?

Speaker 2 (21:45):
puppy Chex mix puppy chow.
I've said that before.

Speaker 5 (21:50):
It's a hard thing about puppy chow.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
Do you have a spoon for it or like?
Or people just grab it and it'sin there.
I dip that red solo cup rightin there and take out a whole.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
That's the move, trent.
That's the move.
That's the move, yeah.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
So yeah, puppy chow, red solo cup, I fill you up With
some puppy chow.
That was really lame, phil.
They'll leave me hanging likethat.

Speaker 3 (22:10):
That was a good song.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
I think there's something else here that I could
have took.
That's just as good, but I feltlike I was piggybacking off of
someone else.
That's why I didn't do it.
Jordan, what are you going withright here?
No one hates puppy chow.
Everyone likes puppy chow.

Speaker 3 (22:23):
No, puppy, chow is good.

Speaker 4 (22:24):
No, I love puppy chow .
I'm going to go with somethingit's kind of a broad like.
There's a lot of different waysyou could do it.
I'm going to go pasta saladNice.
There's a lot of differentpasta salads out there, so I
think that's sketchier thanlasagna.

Speaker 3 (22:37):
I think pasta salad is sketchy.
It may have been sitting insomeone's car for the last three
hours before the 12 PM hour,like it's just a sketch.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
Brownies is by far the most sketchy thing on this
list Anything that you can have,you're right.
Brownies today.
I ask who made the brownies?
You can't just eat browniesfrom any old anyone.
You might have way too much funat that potluck.

Speaker 3 (22:59):
Yeah, but hot mayo is a risk.
I'd rather eat a contaminatedbrownie than spoiled mayo.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
No Spoiled mayo can ruin your next two days.
Most people put their pastasalad in the salad and they
bring it up Like I feel this isyour young self is what I'm
saying.
What are you gonna say Jordan?
No, I just I don't.

Speaker 4 (23:23):
I maybe I'm too trustworthy of people I don't
know.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
Yeah, people bring like you can't question pasta
salad and get people Do they dofree pass on brownies, Do you
like?

Speaker 4 (23:31):
so if it's like you know that it's a pasta salad
from like the grocery store,like you'll eat it.

Speaker 3 (23:36):
I'll be honest with you I really don't like pasta
salad that much Trent's wifemakes a good pasta salad that I
like, but other than that Idon't eat a ton of pasta salad.
I actually like all the kind ofI like potato salad better.

Speaker 4 (23:46):
I was going back and forth between those two.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
I thought about potato salad, I think like the
macaroni salad too.

Speaker 4 (23:51):
I really like that, like the cold, like who doesn't
like pasta, though Like pasta's.

Speaker 2 (23:55):
on this thing, twice we got lasagna and pasta salad.
We didn't do a recap weekendrecap.

Speaker 3 (23:59):
But I went to this B&L, this, this, this.
It's a meat shop in Fresnoexcuse me, vicelia and they have
.
They have a good pasta saladand potato salad Jordan and it's
like four bucks for a nicecontainer.
Like most of their stuff isusually pretty expensive, but
have you tried their sides there, trent?
I have not tried the sidesthere.
You have to you some mustdelicious.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
You had their tri-tip sandwich there.

Speaker 3 (24:20):
No, but they're.
I've had their breakfastburritos and they're really good
.

Speaker 2 (24:22):
I heard the tri-tip sandwich is really good too,
phil.
What are you taking here, nowthat you're, you know, stalling
around here bashing pasta salad,artichoke dip yeah, artichoke
dip, I want.

Speaker 3 (24:32):
I want artichoke dip is actually really good.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
I'm not going to take it Is your computer dead.

Speaker 3 (24:36):
Yeah, I'm just.
I'm shooting from the hip today, baby.
I I'm going with the Pretty lowshot the.
Oh my, oh my, I'm going to diethe.
The set is on one today.
He might I'm not going to sayit.
He, what are those store boughtsugar cookies?

(24:57):
They were like you never, younever oh yes, you know what I'm
talking about the frosting ones,the frosting ones.
You know sugar house Someoneyes, and someone always brings
them and they're always gone andthey're the lazy person.
They're the lazy person.

Speaker 5 (25:11):
They're the lazy person.
You're like ah, who broughtthese, but you're the one eating
them.

Speaker 3 (25:14):
Correct.
Yeah, yeah, Correct.
Those are sugar house.
I think it's that looks likeit's it's like a soft sugar
cookie with frosting.

Speaker 4 (25:22):
Correct.
Yeah yeah, it's a loft house.
Yeah yeah, loft house, lofthouse.

Speaker 2 (25:27):
Yeah, those things are, those are they're so good,
they're so good, like what evenis it?

Speaker 3 (25:33):
It's a sugar cookie with frosting.

Speaker 2 (25:35):
It's so good Sugar cookie with frosting and a
little bit of just the rightamount of sprinkles too.

Speaker 3 (25:41):
I will say I don't like sprinkles, but yes, I would
agree with you Like they don'toverdo it.

Speaker 4 (25:44):
Like they have a good amount, like there's some
people that do a gross amount ofsprinkles and there's a and
there are things thisprepackaging comes out on a like
in a factory, like not afactory, but like that.
I know people love crumblecookies.

Speaker 3 (25:58):
These cookies are better than those.

Speaker 4 (25:59):
I don't like crumble cookies.
I'll be honest, I think I mightagree with.

Speaker 3 (26:02):
Phil.

Speaker 2 (26:02):
I don't like crumble cookies.
I don't mind them, but I don'tknow if these are better than
the crumb are, especially whenyou incorporate how much you're
paying for them.

Speaker 4 (26:08):
Yeah, yeah, I had a listen Looks like you're the
outsider now.

Speaker 2 (26:11):
Hey.

Speaker 3 (26:11):
Steve, hey Steve messaged us.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
Okay, I messaged me, my brother or From Michigan.
He said your midnight snackspod inspired me to make a late
night trip to crumble cookies.

Speaker 3 (26:23):
No, I don't like crumble cookies.

Speaker 2 (26:25):
I haven't had enough.
I've had it like twice.
I was like those are prettygood.

Speaker 4 (26:27):
I think they're bad.
I think they're good, but youcan't eat a whole-.
Did you pay for it or someoneelse paid for it?
Someone did, yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:33):
I think you know what you're doing when you go in
there, right?

Speaker 4 (26:36):
No, yeah, but I can get like two things of those
loft house cookies.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
Here's the thing I don't need two dozen cookies, so
I probably should just go to-.

Speaker 3 (26:46):
You don't need to explain that to us.

Speaker 2 (26:47):
Go to crumble and get one cookie.
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (26:51):
I don't need 12 cookies.
It might be the same.
It could be the same value aslike Could be close.

Speaker 3 (26:56):
I would rather to be quite honest with you.
If I'm choosing between the two, I'd probably just rather have
a donut.
So what's your pay?

Speaker 2 (27:03):
Yeah, but you can't have a donut late at night and
donuts would have been a gooddeal for a potluck probably.

Speaker 3 (27:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (27:08):
KFC box.
All right, my last pick of thedraft.
Another dessert that's alwaysgone rice crispy treats.

Speaker 2 (27:14):
Oh yeah, that's pretty good, seth.

Speaker 5 (27:16):
Load it up.
Extra butter, extramarshmallows way better.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
Yeah, there's a lot of people who know how to make
them.

Speaker 5 (27:24):
Always put more butter and more marshmallows
than you think.
Oh yeah, rice crispy it cannever be too sticky.

Speaker 3 (27:28):
And if it's a brown butter, if you actually do the
brown butter rice crisps, thoseare 10 times better.

Speaker 5 (27:33):
What's the dip, what's the brown butter do?

Speaker 3 (27:36):
It's you brown the butter, just make it a little
bit longer, just give it alittle bit of a different flavor
profile.
So good, you've never heard ofthat.
You've never heard of that.
I don't know.
I think people are screaming intheir cars right now that
you've never heard of brownbutter.
Well, I just I've only seenwhite butter at the store.
if I'm being completely honest,no no, you just cook it down a
little bit longer.
I mean, jordan, have you heardof that?
No, I, you get it more.

(27:59):
It's You're like, you're nottoasting it.

Speaker 5 (28:01):
You leave it in the burner a little bit longer,
correct?
Yeah, yeah, it's nice yellow,it's more brown.
Correct, yeah, it's a littlebit browner, so you like it a
little burnt.

Speaker 3 (28:08):
Yeah, I'll say that.

Speaker 2 (28:10):
To say Phil's words, not mine, just shooting from the
hip, who won this draft?
If you were to say right, now.
Absolutely me.
It's not Phil, so that's.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
I would say it's probably Jordan or Seth.

Speaker 4 (28:20):
Seth has a strong draft for people who like
dessert, it's true.

Speaker 5 (28:24):
Most people like dessert.
The problem is is when I go toa potluck and I see a lot of
dessert, I might end up eatingmore dessert than like the other
food.
That sounds about right for you.

Speaker 3 (28:33):
I think that's most people.
From what I know about you,that sounds about right.

Speaker 4 (28:37):
I like my draft quite a bit.

Speaker 2 (28:38):
What about like pizza , something that maybe got
missed here?

Speaker 3 (28:41):
No.

Speaker 5 (28:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
I mean.

Speaker 3 (28:43):
You get a lot of little Caesar buys for this and
I'm staying away from that.

Speaker 2 (28:47):
Here's the thing, though, phil you complain about
the price of crumble cookies,but then you say that you don't
like little Caesar's pizza.
No, no, no, no, no.
I'm not a problem with littleCaesar's.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
You're a little Caesar's guy, I feel like I have
no problem with little Caesar's, I'm not touching it out of,
I'm not touching it out on a ohquick.

Speaker 4 (29:01):
I'm sorry At a Seth you.

Speaker 2 (29:04):
I'm not touching it out of.
Should I say it?
No, no, no, no.
Why are you not touching itthough it's, it's safe.
You know what you're getting.
It's pre-packaged, that's you.
Can I say it?
That's you.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
No, I'm cautioning you, do not say it.

Speaker 2 (29:19):
Have you ever been asked three times?
No, seth.

Speaker 3 (29:21):
Yes, no, it's not that bad, no, no any time you
have to convince yourself.

Speaker 5 (29:25):
I'm saying as soon as we end it, Okay that's fine.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
I'm already seeing it at the end.

Speaker 2 (29:28):
Yup, we'll say it.
After the outro, we'll decidewhether we want to keep it or
not.

Speaker 5 (29:31):
Yes, okay, I'll say it after the outro.

Speaker 3 (29:34):
I've never seen someone more excited to have
something to say after the endof the outro.

Speaker 5 (29:39):
Well, it kind of pairs into my last comment about
.

Speaker 2 (29:41):
Okay, well, chips and salsa.
I'm gonna recap a little draft.
I had chips and salsa, lasagna,puppy chow.
That is a weird mix.
Jordan had wings, meatballs,pasta salad, phil had buffalo
chicken dip, pita and hummus,loft house cookies, seth had ham
and Swiss sliders, brownies andrice crispy treats.
There's nothing else we missedhere.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
Potato salad this is the potato salad.

Speaker 2 (30:02):
KFC biscuits.

Speaker 4 (30:03):
Twice baked potatoes.
I really like deviled eggs.
Some people don't like deviledeggs.
I am a huge deviled egg guy.
Oh, I don't touch those at a.

Speaker 3 (30:10):
Twice baked potatoes are pretty good at a party.
Yeah, I also like people whowill make, like, who will bring
the store-bought like sandwiches, like those store-bought subs.

Speaker 2 (30:21):
The cold cuts.
So you don't, you don't like,you don't like devil eggs at all
.
No, I'm not a little big guyeither.

Speaker 4 (30:27):
Yeah, no, I don't like them.

Speaker 3 (30:28):
I like I like a hard boiled egg, but I don't like the
devil egg mix.

Speaker 2 (30:31):

Speaker 3 (31:04):
Yeah, I touch chili, yeah there's a lot of things I
won't touch.
Yeah, I'm not shocked.

Speaker 5 (31:13):
Can't wait to see.

Speaker 3 (31:13):
I could just see you like going, like you can, just
