As Mother Nature flexes her muscles with the storm of the century in LA, we’re left marveling at the surreal shifts in our daily grind. Rick’s work schedule's gone haywire, and the city’s streets are suddenly riddled with potholes—unseen obstacles that set the stage for today's chat. We dive into the tumultuous world of atmospheric rivers, the 'rain or shine' work ethos now drenched by remote options, and muse over the tricky role of memory in our grasp of climate change. We also tip our hats to film legend Carl Weathers, whose passing infuses our dialogue with a tinge of nostalgia and sparks a generational conversation on the lasting impact of our screen heroes.
Switching gears, remember the buzz of a packed Super Bowl watch party? The pandemic might have shuffled that deck, but the card collecting community certainly hasn't folded. We take a sentimental journey down memory lane, where the whiff of freshly opened packs from Upper Deck still lingers. We discuss the value spikes in football cards tied to the game's outcome and how new industry players like Fanatics are reshaping the collector's landscape, leaving us longing for the tactile joy of trading cards.
Finally, we get personal and peel back the curtain on the delicate balance of life's milestones and traditions. My daughter's birthday now plays on the same weekend as the Super Bowl, stirring the pot of celebration with a side of Chinese food. As we navigate the hurdles of hosting and tending to ailing kids, we share a candid look at how our lives and commitments evolve, proving adaptability isn't just crucial for podcasting but also for the game of parenthood. Tune in for a heartfelt journey through life's unpredictable weather—literal and metaphorical.
Welcome back to the Drifting on Arroyo podcast. This is Mig, this is Lano and that's all you people get. I think Rick got washed away in the valley river Trying to wash his dirty ass.
Lano:
Yeah, right now we're in LA, so we're having a weather event.
Mig:
Storm of the century, as as At least that's what people want to make it out to be Asphoric river.
Lano:
Is that what the atmospheric, atmospheric rivers, poundiness, yeah. But I thought, ricky, I thought when it rains he doesn't work.
Mig:
really he works because he works inside the building. So for him, for him it was just he was a busy week from, so you know what he's working on?
Lano:
Is he still working close to me? Yesterday he was, yeah.
Mig:
But tonight I don't know where he's working tonight.
Lano:
Yeah, he's going to be working evenings all week, so I'm going to work today We'll do a quick show.
Mig:
We just figured you put up with us for a little while. That's better than nothing, or I don't know. Let us know, Call if nothing is better than We'll take the night off.
Lano:
And then I have phone calls, calls with your, with your rain stories or this weather events.
Mig:
Watch out for those potholes people.
Lano:
I make it with Tommy. There's some hidden potholes under puddles, some big gigantic ones.
Mig:
man Got to be careful. I had my jaws rattled twice today alone.
Lano:
It's been raining the last three days. This is more than the worst in that hurricane that we're supposed to have, like a few months ago.
Mig:
Well, definitely yeah, but I think it's about comparable to last year. Remember last year we had like almost like a week of rain.
Lano:
Right, right Right.
Mig:
You know. So that would say that's about right on, Because they said we got a year's worth of rain in one event.
Lano:
So yeah, and we're just doing it again, and I think this is what was supposed to happen. We just we've been having the drought, so we haven't had these big, these big rain events.
Mig:
Well, yeah, I mean that it's, it's cyclical man. I mean, that's what happens is like, because really we live in a desert environment. So there's going to be those years where it's a really wet year, you know, which, like replenishes the water tables and everything. You know, it's like all the water that's underneath the ground and everything, and that's why we're able to have the type of environment that we have out here.
Lano:
Right.
Mig:
You know, it's like before cities and everything. That's why plant life and animal life flourished out here, because that's just the way it is. Man.
Lano:
Yeah, there's reasons why our LA River is concrete, like because all this stuff used to happen before.
Mig:
Yeah.
Lano:
And that's that's what helps us now.
Mig:
I mean, everybody wants to see climate change. Climate change. You know that they don't ever remember being this hot. I'm like, yeah, it was, and I get, it's always been like this. It's just that we don't remember. You know just now that we're older and we're paying attention. That's because that's when we're and we complain a lot more about everything.
Lano:
Right, right.
Mig:
That's why we think it's the worst ever.
Lano:
But and I mean I was supposed to start work this week. Well, I mean I'm going to tomorrow, but because of this weather event, they told me I could work from home, which is nice. But it's just, I mean 10 years ago, like pre COVID, like I mean, it rains. Like you go to school, you go to work.
Mig:
Like you know, that's what happened. Yeah, Because even I was watching like the news and they sell these districts, school closures and everything like are you kidding me? Yeah, we used to walk to school at this rate, man Right, and get all soaked in everything and jumping the puddles and everything Like. Come on, man.
Lano:
You guys used to swim in the tunnels. Yeah, to junior high. There's an underground tunnel crossing the street.
Mig:
Rick with his tunnel swimming His tunnel surfing or scuba.
Lano:
But speaking of weather, I just wanted to talk a little bit about car weather.
Mig:
Rest in peace, apollo.
Lano:
Now, when you think of car weather, you think of Rocky right away. That's the first thing.
Mig:
It is first thing you know.
Lano:
Then happy, gilmore happy, because my wife yeah, oh, that's the guy from happy Gilmore Like yeah, I mean she's younger, so that's her first thought.
Mig:
But that's what most younger people are going to remember him for is happy Gilmore. But yeah, I mean forever. Apollo dude For forever. I was watching this.
Lano:
YouTube like, video like, or it was like a news report on YouTube and they started showing up with him passing away in Rocky for like him getting beat and I was like that's not that's too soon. I was like they show, like the loan, like holding them and and saying but they had a little interview and he tear it.
Mig:
He was the one the one that was kind of is not really messed up, you know, but it's like now, it's like it feels different. Is that seen in happy Gilmore?
Lano:
because that's been making the rounds also on Instagram and I saw that in all the words, like he's playing the piano and everything and he's like don't cry happy, you know, it's like I got my hand back that.
Mig:
And then that's like it's different. I was like come on, man. It's like, yeah, he's gone now man.
Lano:
We're showing him the ghost with the alligator and all that same picture.
Mig:
So but yeah, that's, that's pretty sad. I mean the good thing or not the good thing, but I mean they say that he just passed away in his sleep and if it's going to happen, I guess that's the best way to get that.
Lano:
That's just right, you know nothing else.
Mig:
Yeah, I mean, I don't know what the cause of it was, that maybe heart attacking his sleep or something, or because you watch those Disney shows like the Mandalorian and stuff. I was watching it, but I stopped watching it when they fired that. Oh the girl, the girl, the UFC fighter.
Lano:
I don't know if you got to be using it. Yeah, I know he was in it and then he directed like an episode, but like in the last season he had like a like a bigger role. He was like in maybe three episodes, so like his part was getting bigger.
Mig:
Yeah, I think. I think I got to figure out how to write it without him. Now, right, I don't think they'll replace him, but no, I don't.
Lano:
Yeah, I think yeah, there's something happened, cuz it was like a mayor of a town that was like buying hoodlums and stuff, yeah, something like that. So, um, I think, like a lot of the newer generations are gonna know from there, but he's, he's been a character like you know, I guess three or four generations. I mean, what a generation? These 10 years, 15 years?
Mig:
Generation, maybe like every 20, every 20, 15 or 20, part part about a generation.
Lano:
So I've been watching all the YouTube shows and, like you know, they he did um, he did some small parts, but what? What I learned? Like he told me, like he was an Oakland Raider.
Mig:
Yeah, I did not know that dude. I did not know he was an Oakland Raider.
Lano:
And I remember like he was like. They say like, oh, he played football, he was a football player. But I mean they say that rocks a football player and you know he just played like he didn't make, like I don't think he even made the team. It's like preseason.
Mig:
Yeah, cuz he, he was a star in Miami, right, but I think he got drafted, or but yeah, he didn't never made the team. Did he get hurt? I mean I don't know, I don't know.
Lano:
But, um, carl, whether he played a, I mean a few years, and then I guess he went to San Diego State. So he played a few years for the Raiders and then he was like a linebacker and then a safety and then went for acting. I know him as Apollo, which was. I can't imagine anybody else playing that role.
Mig:
No and then um, so that's just a long put up on that pretty nice video to like tribute to him the day that he passed.
Lano:
And then I'm probably looking up.
Mig:
It was a pretty nice little tribute there and then he was like spokes nice words of um another movie I remember was um.
Lano:
he was action Jackson action, jackson, that's right. I was there showing that. I don't remember, um, what the action. I don't feel like uh Wasn't like a James Bond, but it was like an action movie. He was action Jackson.
Mig:
Yeah. The type of all those um Blockbusters that they're trying to make, you know, trying to action heroes and everything you know, cuz the main ones back then were we're all the Stallone and, uh, schwarzenegger. And then he wasn't predator you know he was a predator.
Lano:
And then, um, I don't know if he like rebooted his computer, but happy Gilmore is where he, where a lot of people know him from. So one of the interesting things that I, that I, what I heard that that I didn't know about, was that, um, so in one of his movies he, he had like a like it was like a freak stunt, a stunt gone wrong, so he injured his back and like he had a like um, he had this back injury and he continued to play the part and then, um, apparently, um, like that, that back injury haunted him for like years after where he had to get it fused and then, and like, like it, kind of like, after that scene he stopped being an action star. So he falls out the window and they didn't have the, the airbag, like they had it like too far away from the wall, oh wow. So like he landed between the wall and in the airbag, ouch, and they said, like he was like pinned, I guess, like, like His legs like up against the wall and then his head was like on the airbag and like he got like pinned like right between, like you know, snapping his back. But then then he went back to um, he's like I guess he finished the shot like let's do it, and he couldn't, couldn't do it anymore.
Lano:
But um Can be an action star, like jumping out the window, falling out the window into the airbag, what. What movie would you think he got hurt on? That won't say action jackson. That's what I thought. But it was happy, gilmore Nah, when he, when he saw the alligator head and he that's way after his career.
Mig:
I thought this was something that happened earlier in his career.
Lano:
During happy gilmore he sees the alligator head like stumbles back and falls out the window.
Mig:
I mean that that immediately came to mind, but I thought it was something that happened early in his career.
Lano:
No, it was um. That's why he stopped. He didn't do nothing after that, I mean while he stopped, because he was hurt. So being an action star and then getting hurt on happy gilmore like. Of all things, all things falling out the back of the window after seeing the alligator head and getting hurt. So I just thought that was like a fun, fun fact.
Lano:
I was like wow, like out of all that come on, chubs, not like that so not on that movie, and uh, no, of all the movies, that's the one that's gonna like not end your career, but it's gonna like Change your life, your career, career from now on.
Mig:
That's funny.
Lano:
So today we're recording Um. This will air on thursday, so this will be um Before the Super Bowl. So I just wanted to talk about um. Our first one are you are you hosting a party? No are you going anywhere? No, normally, you guys, the pain has always had a party.
Mig:
No, that was before, dude, I mean pre-covid, pre-covid. I'll tell you, coven ruined everything for everybody. It was like after even pre-covid, we would, we were getting together every Sunday to watch the games. We're right. Yeah, you know I'm they ruined that. You know. It's like everybody just stays home now and does their own thing.
Lano:
And then now I like before you guys were the ones that had the big TV. Now, like everybody has a big TV. Yeah everybody's like, but, um, I mean Super Bowl's like. I like getting together just for like no reasons like you know, just to to watch the, the big game.
Mig:
That's fine, you know, because we're all drinking and eating and everything you know just. I don't know, I just I don't know. I'm not feeling it this year the Super Bowl is an event.
Lano:
Um is there, you're just no halftime. Show a team you want to win, or you said the Niners you don't want because Ricky's neighbor right.
Mig:
Well, I really, I just hate both teams, dude.
Lano:
Yeah, I really just hate both teams and. I just he's a rival character I don't like I don't either.
Mig:
But but if I gotta choose one, I guess I would rather it be the Niners only because, as Everybody knows, I'm a card collector and I have a lot of good players that are on the Niners, a lot of rookie cards on there.
Lano:
Oh, really, I think that might go up in value so. I thought you're gonna mention my homes or something.
Mig:
No cards or something, but the 90 like like both son stuff or who, no the the quarterback Brock pretty, oh, you know you have his that I just recently uh pulled a really nice card of his. Oh, wow that, um, right now as it is, I think it's um, it's about a $200 card. Oh, and if he wins a super bowl, I mean, who knows what I'll go up to.
Lano:
Is it like a crazy card, or what makes it not just the regular rookie card ever factor? Number to 199 so so you still buy packs and pulls on pool.
Mig:
Yes, mostly football.
Lano:
That's right.
Mig:
I tried baseball, but baseball so hard. Because baseball Unless you go to like a high-end product where they're gonna have like the Vets their signatures and everything like good, high tiered vets, right Because other than that you're just pulling drafts and prospects and To know who's who and who's hot and everything's like just so hard to keep up with. Like the player pulls this too big, it's huge, it's gigantic and I can't keep up with it. No, I had you know. So I just buy baseball every once in a while just to pull some and I just wait. I let them sit there and See if any of them blow up.
Lano:
Now Is it just a few card companies, or is it like they started making all kinds of card companies like who's better?
Mig:
Okay, well, let me explain. Card companies there's only like two or three of them left. Okay Brands there's a lot of brands left, while all the brands carried over, but they were all bought out by a company or something by an Italian card company called Panini.
Mig:
Oh, so Panini bought Don Russ, they bought Leaf, they bought score, you know. So they got all those, all those products. Tops is still tops, but with all their licensing and everything, they don't have a football. Oh, they don't have football. And they don't have, um, no, they got baseball. That's what they got. They got baseball and basketball.
Mig:
Basically, I mean, I would yeah tops but a Panini has football, but they don't have baseball. So if you look at all the products from Panini for baseball, none of them have logos or or like official MLB bad gene or anything.
Lano:
Oh like not even like team logos and stuff.
Mig:
No, they like race it no.
Lano:
So that devalues it, or does that make it more valuable?
Mig:
No, I mean they still. You know there's still products out there that I mean I like, I would like to see like the team name on the jersey or whatever, or the logo.
Lano:
Right.
Mig:
But a lot of times when you see these products, they're all like washed out. Oh, you know, uh-huh. So as far as all the, I was like team colors, uh-huh, you know, upper deck pretty much disappeared. Well, I was like, are they still around there?
Lano:
Yeah.
Mig:
Upper deck disappeared, and upper deck used to make a really nice football product too. A lot of good football products.
Lano:
Because I felt like before, like when we were well, I was younger, like upper deck was like the highest quality, like super glossy thick and like it's nice, like I had the hologram, yeah, but then they I mean, they came out of nowhere, but then didn't they just died, or yeah, I mean, I don't know what happened. I don't know why they just like disappeared and Tops was kind of like the one with the bubble gum in it and like yeah.
Lano:
Tops had the gum in it. It was like black and white on the one side. Yeah, the other side was color.
Mig:
You know the, you know the, I'm telling you there were there were all individual card companies, but then this Panini came, and now there's another. What is it that? A fanatic? Uh-huh, the new clothing, or?
Lano:
Yeah.
Mig:
So they're buying out I do their buying out everybody now and they're going to start making cards. Oh, so I think they're. They're buying out all the brands and everything and, like pretty soon, like in a few years, they'll start making cards.
Lano:
Was it upper deck, like they started like getting like buying players, like exclusive, like this player is only on upper deck or something like that, or no, or I'm not sure. I don't remember something. The game started changing. Now what I don't like is before it was like one set, now there's like subsets, and this is the hologram set or the crystal set.
Mig:
I mean, I love that. That's what. That's what created the whole chase. You know, because you wanted the short prints. You know you wanted the variations. You know it's like other than that, all you had was an error cards.
Lano:
Right, you know. So you were looking at an error like a freaking major, like a printing error or whatever you know it was like.
Mig:
So they figured that out and they figured okay. Well, instead of making, instead of doing error cards, it's like why don't we do like short prints?
Lano:
Limited runs.
Mig:
Like limited runs. Yeah, it's like instead of like, say, shohei, you know his top card, number 38, you know, let's do a 38 B where in 38 he's pitching, but 38 B he's batting, and we'll only make like maybe a thousand of those. So that would be like a chase card. That would be something you would want, you know. But then, of course, like all the refractors and now they do what they call a lot of prisms, you know where they do like a lot of really nice, beautiful designs there.
Lano:
It's crazy. I think that came over from like the Pokemon stuff, like the prisms and yeah, I don't know all that stuff, I'm not sure but so you're still in the game and they're still like, like big, big time collectors and all that stuff.
Mig:
Yeah, I mean the thing. The thing is just, it's gotten so expensive, it's so hard.
Lano:
Everything's online, like you can't go to Target and buy a pack number right Like they're sold out, yeah.
Mig:
If you're lucky enough to find something. Yeah, if you're lucky enough to find something, because they're just sit out there before they open on delivery days. They know when delivery days are, yeah, and they'll go in there and they'll buy up everything.
Lano:
That was the time when I was trying to get like basketball rookie, like and like, we wanted to get the hot Laker rookie and then me and my brother in law, but then, like, like, we didn't even have a chance Like you know, being a casual collector to go to the Target Like these guys before the truck drops them off. They're already.
Mig:
That's the thing. That was the whole plan for Target and all the retail is, so the kids could buy cards and know that feeling of.
Lano:
I'm ripping open Manufacture price.
Mig:
Yeah, because the thing is you're buying a little box. It comes maybe with like six packs, like four cards, five cards A pack and you're paying 20 bucks for it.
Lano:
Yeah.
Mig:
Which is good. But then you get these guys that are vultures. They come in and scoop everything up and they turn around and put them on eBay for 60, 70 dollars for a $20 pack.
Lano:
And then they're more valuable and open you don't know what's in there.
Mig:
Yeah Well, yeah.
Lano:
Once they open. Like you know, this goes up and down.
Mig:
I mean. But the thing is the retail. It's a lot harder to pull something good out of retail. Then if you buy like, say, like the, the box is like what I would go by, you know, in a card shop right. Which that they call like hobby.
Lano:
Oh.
Mig:
You know, retailers, what you would buy like in the big box stores, uh-huh so, but hobby boxes, those are what you go for for when you want, like a guaranteed autograph or guaranteed Jersey card in the box or whatever.
Lano:
Let's see, that's the manufacturer making like two sets, like a hobby, and then a retail box, right um, because you're guaranteed you're gonna get one, yes or no because they'll do.
Mig:
What they do now is that they'll do exclusives Like they'll do like a retail exclusive. You know like only this color parallels gonna come with retail. You know so, like, say, the hobby one came with like parallels of like a blue, a red, a gold and a pink.
Mig:
You know the retail exclusive parallels gonna be a green or something like that you know, and you know, like if you pull that green one or you try to sell you, then people that know Know that. All you know that was a hard pull, because he pulled that out of retail, because that's what the exclusive was.
Lano:
So what's um for like for us to learn, like what's a good YouTube channel to watch or look at it? Um Snapbacks he's still doing his openings or unveils, or no?
Mig:
Eric, no, no, no, they're not doing it anymore. No, I mean, there's just. There's a bunch of dudes out there. You know that, um, like the, the bigger card companies or the bigger card stores, they do their breaks or anything like I know laden Laying breaks is a big one. But I mean, if you just like, just put a so that's the term of break.
Mig:
Yeah, breaks. I mean there's just dudes that get on there that they just buy their own boxes and Open them up right there, just so you can see what's in there. I Mean I don't really watch anyone in particular with any regularity. It's like I'll. Sometimes I'll go down a rabbit hole and watch a bunch of different dudes and just to see like what's new, what's out there. If I'm curious about a new product that came out, I want to see what's in it. But for the most part, for the most part, the videos I've been watching are, um, like value trackers, like when, when is the time to sell? Like what players are hot?
Lano:
Yeah, is it like Cooper's, like Hall of Fame, or like a big season or like, well, that's the thing is like it now it's when like from week to week. Like Kobe is like when he passed in, like now like they're gonna have a statue, like when's the when's the hot time, like when he goes to the Hall of Fame, or like Kobe keeps like the legend keeps growing and growing. So I think that he keeps going up and up.
Mig:
I mean, I mean, the more time goes by and the less availability there is of his car. That's what's gonna raise up the value but what's really gonna shoot up in value are anything that's autographed of his.
Lano:
Because there's no more. Can't get it no more, you know, unless the car companies have Stickers still lying around.
Mig:
They be signed. Oh, you know, because, other than that, the only way to get a signature on a card Would be to like find a Check that he signed or a contract that he signed, and then that's what they call cut cards, so where they get like a piece of cut Paperwork and then the signature, and then they put in the card, you know. So you know it's his signature. Well, he didn't sign that card, but he sent sign that paper or whatever that thing was. So those cards like that.
Lano:
Oh yeah, like older, older.
Mig:
Yeah, babe Ruth came comes out like that. Ty Cobb, oh, you know all these legends. We're on this Wagner. Yeah, dude, oh I haven't seen.
Lano:
That'll be cool. Yeah Well, our shows. Um, I Want to say a few weeks away from being on YouTube, so maybe we'll do a break. If you get a big sale, do it live on the shore.
Mig:
Well, I mean, why watch a few of them and see how I go down, and see if you want to really do that? If you really want to do that, I'm down, I'll do it, we'll do it.
Lano:
It's like an investment in like either you could go up or go down, right, yeah, like a slide or something. Yeah, but just.
Mig:
Right right on when we get off the air. Well, we'll watch a couple episodes, that way you can see how they do it. Okay, how?
Lano:
it's done so and is it because I know, like I seen a few like Pokemon is like Like the first card you flip over and then the other, you grab three and then the last one, you, I don't know something. There's a way to come out of the pack, or something like.
Mig:
Pokemon I'm lost. Oh yeah, that would be my nephew. He would be the one asked those questions about. But yeah, All right.
Lano:
Well, I wanted to get back to Super Bowl, because everybody's gonna be throwing their Super Bowl parties this weekend. What's, what's your perfect like Super Bowl party, like food wise, or what? Yeah, food wise, for me the perfect.
Mig:
Super Bowl party is when I got a host when I can just show up and eat and drink and bat.
Lano:
Now, I've never hosted one, but I'm always a guest, and these are-.
Mig:
Well, you've always come to my house. What was some of your favorites Like what when I made food? What was some of your favorite times?
Lano:
Well, the food, the food's always good because we would always I want to say we'd have corn yasada or something right. Sometimes you guys would make them to sandwiches or something like that. You never went when I made fish tacos. Yeah, I think we made fish tacos.
Mig:
Oh, when I made the wings.
Lano:
I don't remember the wings you don't remember wings.
Mig:
No, I remember the wings.
Lano:
But me, I like the food to be done, like before the game. Okay, that's my like. I want the food to be done, I want the. I mean I'm gonna sound like a little diva, but I want the food to be done. I want the food to be like like in warmers and then, like when I want to get up to get food, like like I want to be able to get it. I don't like when, like we're making the food and then half time the food's ready, because sometimes I want to watch the halftime show, sometimes I want to see the commercials. So I don't like when it's like like someone's cooking and then like they're missing the game or then like everybody gets up at halftime.
Lano:
Which is always my case. Everybody gets about halftime to grab their food and then like you know you lose your seed or like man. That's thing you need to have seeding, because I hate like you get up, someone takes your spot.
Mig:
Right.
Lano:
So you need to have seeding and then just the food be ready. So, like, if I want to, like there's three minutes left or four minutes, I want to grab a bite, Like it's ready, either chips or food. But I don't like the organizer Like everybody get up, grab their plates, Because then after that it's all chaotic, People steal your seeds. You know like you're in line and like the foods. Just have the food ready all day long and I'll be the one grabbing my dip and chips or choosing my bathroom breaks, If it's. Uh, if there's more TVs, all TVs, better have the game on. Like, if there's one in the whatever in the kitchen or whatever I just like, just because you were grabbing a coke.
Mig:
I'll make sure to put it in the shed or for you.
Lano:
If we grab it a coke, just having, um, make sure um there's TVs on and that's it. Like I just like everybody just to be there. Like I like, if I want to talk to you and you're stuck at the grill, like I'm not going to talk to you cause I'm watching the game, but so, like, just have the food ready and done and then, um, finger foods. I mean, it can be as simple as hot dogs. You know hot dogs ready, just put your chili on top.
Mig:
That's the thing nobody ever expected. Everybody always expects more when they come over to my house and I'm hosting drinks.
Lano:
You know cans are fine, so you know, everybody just grabs your own. I remember the food always being like, like really good, but like. To me, the Super Bowl is always like like an event I like to watch, like the pregame, the pageantry cause, the commercial. Sometimes they start like right before the game starts. Oh, yeah. And I'm a commercial fan. I haven't seen anything in the commercials this year, but I like to sit and watch the commercials and then the halftime like cause really, the games are rarely ever good, right the games.
Mig:
usually they're either blowouts or they're boring. You know, and that's what you watch. You watch the commercials.
Lano:
Yeah, that's. I mean that's you know halftime shows.
Mig:
I could care less about the halftime shows.
Lano:
I never. I mean, I know everybody's going to be talking about so like I always like to watch it. And then, um, it's always the time is like between the game and the halftime show, but it's not during the commercials, like when the commentators like doing their game update or whatever, showing the same highlight over and over again, or the one touchdown or the other touchdown. But that's, uh, my perfect suppose is this one the foods ready, let me get up. When I want to get up, don't tell me, cause I've been through some. I don't want to blame my in-laws, but it's all like halftime, the foods ready, everybody get up.
Lano:
And I was like no, I don't want to get up, you're going to take my spot, somebody give me my plate or whatever. But and it doesn't. It doesn't need to be this big old production. Just have, just have food ready. Just you know, chips and dip, like I said, it could be hot dogs, have some kind of salad where everybody could, just you know, be grabbing your taco meat like, or whatever Cause. How many? Like you said, you're always cooking. So how many games have you missed when you hear oh, you have to run in to take a peek, pretty much, all of them.
Lano:
Oh yeah.
Mig:
The only rule I had ever set and I told everybody this I'm like the day the Raiders get back to the Super Bowl. Well, this is like in the thick of me always starting a party every year and I said this. I said the the year the Raiders are in the Super Bowl, I ain't cooking shit. Do you watch in the? Game I thought I ain't moving from the damn TV Right. I thought we're ordering pizzas or something or I don't know what. But I'm not making nothing.
Lano:
Right, right.
Mig:
I thought I'm watching the game.
Lano:
So that's a good, good thing. What do you think about the Raiders picking their dolphins according?
Mig:
I don't even know who he is, can't see or oh, that dude from the Bears, huh yeah, I don't know nothing about them, I don't know.
Lano:
I don't know, but I thought they're gonna click Kingsbury or Cliff and then all of a sudden something happened and they didn't get them.
Mig:
No, I thought they're going to get that B enemy.
Lano:
Yeah, b enemy, but he's the guy they replaced, right the Kings or Kings? I don't know, I don't know.
Mig:
I don't know what happened.
Lano:
Hopefully we do good, but this weekend Super Bowl, so you don't know Rick's house and hosting nothing. Rick's not coming over, or nothing.
Mig:
No, I think what Rick's he was going to do. He said he was going to do something.
Lano:
Now for me, super Bowl's changed because my daughter's birthday, oh yeah. So like, yeah, we're not, I mean we're not throwing a big. I mean last year she turned one, we had a big party. Now we're just having, like we're going to have, we're going to eat some Chinese food, gang chow one o'clock, before the game me and me and my family, and then come, come home and then, like you know, watch the game and stuff, get some of that walnut shrimp.
Mig:
Yeah.
Lano:
I want orange, orange chicken or orange shrimp and walnut shrimp. But that's so. My daughter's birthday is every Super Bowl weekend, so it might be the Saturday or the Monday after or whatever. So sweet, that's going to be her birthday party. So things change. So now I mean, if she likes football, then we'll, we'll combine it, but if she doesn't like football, then she gets a Saturday.
Mig:
It'll be the Saturday before.
Lano:
Saturday and right now both my daughters are sick, so I don't even know if that's going to happen. This weekend the little one got a cold. She became a super spreader and then got the my elder one sick.
Mig:
Well then, what am I doing here there, man?
Lano:
That's why. That's why we're having a quick show. I got to get back to the kids. You got to go wipe some noses, wipe some noses.
Mig:
Yeah, change some pampers.
Lano:
They smoke, coming down everywhere.
Mig:
Good luck with that. Keep the slot out of your hands and keep drifting Yo Peace. Unfortunately, I'm not gonna be able to document the advertising for the Fortnite.
