Episode 100 - Celebrating 100 Episodes: Renaissance Revelries, Sports Saga Dissections, and the Symphony of Sizzling Brunch Debates
Hey there, Drifters! Pop the champagne and throw some confetti because we're hitting a century with our 100th episode! It's been a wild ride with laughs, sniffles, and a beast of a workload, but we're back and buzzing with excitement. We're peeling back the curtain on our YouTube transition—yes, it's tech talk, but trust us, it's juicy. And if you're itching for hot takes, wait till you hear what we've got to say about the Kendrick and Drake showdown. Sports cards fanatics, we haven't forgotten you. Let's take a trip down memory lane, from the iconic Topps to the relics of Upper Deck, and talk about that adrenaline-pumping grading process. Plus, there's a sports lawsuit debate on deck, as we tackle the topic of a legend's legacy entwined with personal controversies. Oh, and we're diving helmet-first into the NFL scene, dissecting our Raiders' rollercoaster ride and the Texans' unexpected rise.
As our episode continues, we're swapping footballs for turkey legs and stepping into the whimsical world of Renaissance fairs. Imagine the clashing of swords, the clinking of tankards, and the taste of mead on your lips as we recount the festivities. And for those of you who love a good brunch debate, we're serving up a segment on chicken and waffles that might just have you rethinking your morning staples. But that's not all. We're putting on our reviewer hats and diving into the latest and greatest products—think post-workout soaps and up-and-coming eateries. Yes, we're dishing out the good, the bad, and the bubbly on everything from Moosecraft's mouthwatering menu to a soap that doubles as a muscle scraper.
Join us for this milestone moment, where we not only celebrate our past but also set our sights on the future. We're expanding our horizons onto YouTube and we're inviting you along for the ride. Expect laughs, insights, and tales that will keep you on the edge of your seat—or your treadmill, we don't judge. So, refill your drink, cozy up, and let's keep drifting together, because as we always say, life's too short to stay anchored in one place. Cheers to the next 100 episodes, Drifters!

You're still sick right now dude, I wasn't sure I was going to make it, but but a lot of the weeks that we missed was because I think you should put it.
Mig:I've had a heavy workload.
Rick:Yeah.
Lano:So it's been ridiculous.
Rick:Is that common for summer? You know what? Or?
Mig:just busy. Yeah, just busy, I mean in general, just with there being more sunlight we tend to work longer oh that's right, because we can. Yeah, you know, because you know it's like doing anything. You know what I mean Like mechanic work. You don't want to be working in the dark. It sucks. You know cause you're. You lose something, Something drops and falls and you don't see where it went.
Lano:I don't even want to pick up the dog shit when it's dark.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Lano:I gotta bring out a flashlight and then hold it with the dust. The picker upper and the rake. I mean, if we have to.
Mig:we do, you know, but we prefer not to. That's why all those times before Daylight Savings I was able to get here like early. You know I was more available, but now you know we'll make it work.
Lano:So the plan for the next show we're gonna. We talked about getting a box. What do they call that when you open up a box? A break.
Rick:I don't know if we'll get it for the next show, but that's in the future, working on right.
Lano:Are we gonna record now every show For the YouTubes?
Rick:Yeah, every show's gonna get recordedes. Yeah, every show is going to get recorded now. Now, it's just.
Lano:All right If I'm able to edit because it's part of YouTube's agreement.
Rick:You have to have a video for every episode. Oh, we can't. I don't think they just do audio only as part of it and YouTube. I was going through all that stuff Now. It's all like advertising. It's all like big deal like everybody wants to make money so we're going big time now I think by going on youtube.
Lano:Well, we just big step episode.
Rick:You know what?
Lano:we just missed it because we could have been like breaking down the, the kendrick and drake beef which now we're behind kendrick um destroyed drake you want, you want to talk about that right now. Yeah, I don't care about you, drake fans.
Rick:Kendrick mopped the floor with that dude. Everybody who knows Drake knows he's Canadian, right, he's not even American.
Lano:He's Canadian. He's Canadian, he's whack, he's a pedal. Yeah, he said it. I don't know if we can say that on YouTube. Now, dude, I think we, we gotta say, I think youtube's has been saying it um. Pdf files. Pdf pdf oh, I gotta learn this pdf.
Speaker 4:I gotta edit all this stuff. Yeah, probably.
Lano:Yeah you know what you might have to blank that out? Dude pdf is fine, but the other and that's stupid man that that that chips my chops, my ass, because they don't want you to say that word, not even a short word.
Mig:But there's other stupid shit that I don't allow.
Lano:Why? Like that's stupid? Yeah, you don't want to. It's just stupid, man. Why are you covering it up? I mean, I hate that. I don't know. So I've been hearing people call it pdfs, the pdf.
Mig:He's a pdf well, I mean that's that's far as well I just I found this button. I got it I thought I would plug something because I was messing with the wire live. No, no, it'll be less edited as far as all this beefing with all these new rappers and everything.
Lano:I mean, I'm clueless about it, dude, because I don't I don't really know them I a at all no, no, I saw today a video where uh corrupt heard the, the disc song, for the first time. He didn't even know that this beef was going on. Uh-huh, and man he was being interviewed by I forgot the channel's name, but they were interviewing Corrupt and Daz. Uh-huh, and they're like oh man, dude.
Rick:They're always like high and stuff, yeah, but like Corrupt is like he was talking like an old man.
Lano:Oh, really, yeah, but but like corrupt is like he was talking like an old man, like oh, really, like what he goes, what, like what's going on with with kendrick and and drake? Like he was just like moving and talking like oh man, he was looking at dad's like what is he talking about? And then dad's was like telling him he's like yeah, because you, kendrick, said a verse on Like that, saying you know, there is no big three, it's only big me. And then like kind of explaining it to Corrupt and they're like talking like old men. Like back and forth is like I was like dude, like Corrupt's looking real old like an old man out of it, like 90s, right?
Lano:How old were they In their late 20s? Who would think that?
Rick:they're like us.
Lano:That's why I thought like a few years older, yeah, they're like us.
Rick:But you said, they aged a lot more though.
Lano:They were talking like old men.
Mig:A lot of mileage on them, boy.
Lano:Yeah, but it was funny hearing Corrupt talk because he was like what are you talking about?
Mig:He was probably higher than a giraffe's ass man, I don't know. Can you imagine after all these years what it would take to get him that high.
Lano:Yeah, look at Llanos putting up the PDF pictures.
Rick:Well, this is him where he became famous. Oh, he's Ocho Degrassi.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Rick:And apparently I didn't know this, but in Canada they only have like three channels. Three channels, three TV channels, kind of like the UK On the airwaves?
Lano:Yeah.
Rick:Like yeah, Antenna, they have like three channels, so like all their shows are like big I doubt people are watching that.
Mig:That's socialism for you.
Rick:Everybody has to like watch it. So like all the shows are like super huge.
Lano:But I'm sure they had their streaming channels. A third of the country watches it. They're streaming things right.
Rick:Nowadays, but when this show was on.
Mig:For all you America-hating idiots out there, there you go. That's what socialism is. You get three channels and you're forced to watch those three here. You can watch whatever the hell you want, as long as you pay for it. That is it.
Mig:That is all in a nutshell that is all yeah, I forgot what, um what it leads to come on so, getting back to the box break, well, where what we're talking about is opening up a box of um, baseball cards, football cards, basketball, but that's what I was going to say. Cards, football cards, basketball, but that's all I was going to say. Call into the hotline or drop us a message on the Instagram. The hotline is 323 207 0012 and the Instagram is just Drifting on the Royal.
Speaker 4:Drifting on the Royal.
Mig:At Drifting on the Royal.
Rick:Yeah.
Mig:And let us know, what do you want us to open? You want us to open A box of basketball, a box of baseball, a box of football, soccer, formula One, ufc, there's Formula.
Rick:One cards.
Mig:No, dude, there's so much stuff out there. What's the most popping one? Star Wars, they're all popping.
Lano:Yeah, yeah, but the thing.
Mig:The thing is on a lot of them, I'm not familiar. What's gonna be hot, though? Oh, like baseball, so difficult to keep up with who you should be collecting and who not?
Rick:well, I'm gonna collect some major league soccer you see, just because we could do soccer. They're doing this one thing when a player debuts like their first time in the league, they wear this debut patch, and then that patch is going to be one card only. Oh, so I want to get that. Lafc has this new goalie from Europe and I mean I wish we could try to get one of his or whatever.
Mig:Well, that's what I'm saying. This Wish we could try to get one of his or whatever, but that's what I'm saying. This year's his first year, his first year.
Rick:Yeah, I mean, he's played in World Cups for France, but this is his first year at LAFC, first year in MLS, so his first game. They wore that jersey with that patch. Yeah, I guess, debut the game that you went to, did they win? Yeah they came back at the end 3-2. Oh nice, an extra time. But they're gonna give cards of that patch Like, and I guess it's supposed to come out Like in summertime. Oh, so there you go.
Rick:That'll be one, and I don't know if soccer's as big as Like baseball. I know baseball's like.
Mig:Soccer's pretty big dude, is it? Yeah, I would say that almost soccer, if you get like a, if you get like a Messi or what is one of those guys? Holland, I think his name is.
Lano:Yeah, like the blonde guy from.
Rick:Denmark Okay, but soccer, what are they going to cover?
Lano:Like what league?
Rick:The one I'm talking about is MLS. Yeah, but I mean Messi plays for them.
Mig:I think it might be like a Premier League or Premier League box. I'm not sure. I got to look into it. I'm not familiar with it, but I do know that there's some cards that they open up and they come out and they're ridiculous expensive.
Rick:Oh, what's the least. I mean I guess league or whatever that like not people are into. I mean I know they're all big, but I mean baseball is, you know, covered? You said soccer is pretty big. Well, you said they're all popping Formula One.
Mig:Everyone Formula One dude is. I mean, I know that's worldwide, it's worldwide dude and it's stupid how some of these cars go for as much as they do In Formula One. Formula One. But I mean, if you think about it, all the people that are a fan of Formula One and everything it's like, all Europeans and everything it's all people with money.
Rick:Yeah, it's like a Europeans and everything.
Mig:It's all people with money. Yeah, it's like a rich sport. It's a rich man's sport. So if they want this one card or whatever, then yeah, it's going to go for ridiculous amounts, dude, and I've heard of cards like that going for stupid amounts.
Rick:Do they? Have any patches or any or any like pieces of the helmet. I'm sure they do Stickers, but like, I'm telling you I don't.
Mig:My main focus has always been football. So football, I can tell you football. All day long I dabbled in baseball. You know, in baseball right now I can tell you like, like, if we pull like a veterans autograph, yeah, like right now I could tell you, like, if we pull like a veteran's autograph.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Mig:Like right now, if we pull anything Shohei, then that's good yeah, especially if it's low-numbered, if it's parallel, if it's refractor, you know, or jersey, or autograph.
Rick:I want a Shohei like a. That's money, A piece of his check that was Paid off Of debt Stupid.
Lano:Part of his Signature Of the check. But the thing, the. Thing.
Mig:Is that, when it comes to Getting their rookie cards, that's what's so difficult To figure out. What is their actual Rookie card? Because what they do is they put out their draft cards right prospect cards like the one in front of the podium, and you know, and now, now they have like a first bowman, so it would be like their first appearance on like a bowman card and then the first year that they play in the league, that's like it's official rookie card logo on it.
Rick:So it's like well, that's weird, cause like they get called up and dropped down like a rookie, like like I don't know what really was considered, and then and then like right now, the, the hot young players, right now there's, um, there's one guy for, I think, arizona, his name's Corbin Carroll.
Mig:There's another guy in Cincinnati called Ali De La Cruz oh yeah, that guy's good yeah, and a few others. Man, I would have to really investigate it, but it's so hard to keep up with baseball.
Rick:And then do they have Japanese cards or leagues, or, like Shohei, like his previous leagues. Or they're not big.
Mig:I'm not, no, I don't think so, dude. I think before they did, or maybe they do. Maybe they do have, like some In Japan, some card companies that make cards over there, but they're probably not.
Lano:What are the top? What are the top Company cards Tops.
Mig:Right now the only Is Tops, even Tops, they're still making cards, but they only have Baseball, licensing Baseball and basketball. I believe Bowman, no, so basketball, I believe Bowman, no, so Tops makes Bowman, you know. And they have a bunch of other subs, but right now there's really only like two or three Manufacturers it's Tops, panini and, um, there's Leaf, I think is coming up again. Leaf is old school Fleer, no.
Lano:Fleer's done.
Mig:No Leaf.
Lano:Upper.
Rick:Deck is done. Yeah, surprisingly, upper Deck came With a bang and then left.
Mig:And I really liked Upper.
Rick:Deck. They came and dominated.
Mig:Quality glass For football dude Upper Deck made such nice products, man, it's like I go back, I dig into my collection, I start looking at some of the cards. I'm like, man, these things are nice dude. It's like some of my favorite cards were Upper Deck Because they had this one set called the SP Authentic, and those were the ones I loved pulling cards on.
Lano:I would think that those companies that are gone already, the cards would be more valuable, because they're not being made anymore.
Mig:The problem is that they're gone because they were in the 90s, the junk wax era where the market was just saturated so they're not hard to find. It's like everybody has them.
Lano:Until they're all gone.
Mig:I guess, until they're all gone and you can't find them no more. But right now there's so many, you know, and people have gotten them.
Lano:They printed so many.
Mig:They printed so many and then, like so many people, have gotten them, taking care of them, got them graded. So even if you wanted to find, like a PSA 10 or whatever, it's not going to be hard. There's going to be so many of them out there that there's not really much value.
Lano:I think you just buy them and then hold on to them so they go extinct.
Mig:I mean there's some that are holding. You know they do have value. You know, like your King Griffey, your rookie, your upper deck number one, that one if it comes back at 10, it's a pretty valuable card.
Lano:How long have you had that one Pulled it? Oh, Ricky pulled it.
Rick:Like back then.
Speaker 4:Yeah, he pulled it from a pack.
Rick:You still already have it. Yes, sir, it's protected and everything it's in the safe, but it's in good shape.
Mig:You think it'll be a 10? I was looking at it and um, centering Looked a little off, so I don't know If it might get dinged For the centering Cause I was gonna send it To get graded. But I was like Really looking at it. Really close, that's scary. Yeah, I was always Skeptical about that. Yeah, so.
Rick:Because what if?
Lano:It's a really good.
Mig:Or they swap it. Yeah, do they give it back to you. Everybody tells me that same shit.
Rick:I mean, I get scared, but um, like People, they can't do it. Come and look at it.
Lano:They don't do it like On the spot yeah.
Rick:Or go to a show or something. Yeah.
Mig:A show where you can go Grade it on the spot Cause Even now they take it back in the tent when they do the world switcheroo oh, I mean they got a reputation to uphold, so if any window that ever got out there that they're doing shady things like that, then they would lose their reputation so fast it's there. Yes, I mean, but I've sent stuff in that's numbered.
Rick:Well, I guess it's numbered. They can't.
Mig:Yeah, I got it back.
Speaker 4:You got a real white face there, Lano.
Lano:Huh, you got a real white face on your camera. You're like more white than usual. Usual.
Rick:You're looking like a ghost on there well, you're all tanned, I'm, I'm like because you know, what it is. I got the screen in front of me I don't want to.
Lano:I don't want to sit like too low. We probably got next next show.
Rick:I gotta put those up higher I got the screen in front of me, so it's reflecting white I.
Lano:I think I had the camera blocking Jordy in my face.
Rick:Because our first test footage there was a lot of background stuff. That's why I had to zoom it in.
Mig:What do you mean by background stuff?
Rick:You could see everything around us In your shots. I was focused on me. In my shots, I'm focused on Ricky. I could see him behind me. You could see me in front, so that's why I I zoomed in to to cut everything out so to zoom in so you can see our fat faces.
Rick:Basically, we're gonna since now we're on video, we're gonna try to do more visual stuff. Opening cards. I was thinking like reviewing products. I brought a product today I want us to review. I was thinking like Reviewing products. I brought a product today I want us to review.
Lano:Oh, so do we wanna. Do we have to get a product?
Rick:Every week? No, no, just when we have time. I mean not every, I mean but now that we're on video Like we gotta do visual stuff.

Rick:The guy from the bears. What's his name? Walter payton. Walter payton, like, was oj up with those guys?
Lano:no, I don't know no, no, because it was like um, I think the top are like emma smith, walter payton, jim brown. Um, because he did all three.
Mig:It's like runners that I've seen highlights of that. Just leave my jaw dropped on the floor are, of course, Barry Sanders, Walter Payton, Bo Jackson, but you're talking about old players like him. Jim Brown was an effing animal. Dude Ran through everybody.
Rick:Earl Campbell those are the through, everybody, earl.
Mig:Campbell, those are the top five Earl Campbell for the Oilers Another freaking beast, dude Slippery, I mean slippery as shit. They couldn't bring him down. No, Campbell was a.
Lano:He ran everybody over.
Rick:He ran everybody over man, I just remember him in the mud Footage. In the mud I think I saw Slippery.
Lano:No, he ran over everybody.
Speaker 4:About as slippery as a Sherman tank dude and you know so old running backs like that, like Larry Zonka, you know those dudes. I just remember them barreling through everybody.
Mig:I didn't like Dickerson.
Lano:I know you mentioned that before. I mean still he yeah, he's got the stats man.
Mig:Well, I guess that's maybe where you might want to place OJ, like in the Dickerson kind of category when I guess he did put up numbers.
Rick:But but is he Hall of Fame?
Mig:Nothing too memorable. He's in the Hall of Fame. No, no, no, oj. Yeah, he's in the Hall of Fame, too memorable.
Rick:He's in the Hall of Fame. No, no, no, OJ.
Mig:Yeah, he's in the Hall of Fame. He's in the Hall of Fame, yeah. Yeah, I mean, I know he has the Heisman and stuff that was all pre- yeah, he's in the Hall of Fame, that was all before he was a killer man. Yeah, that was all pre-murder.
Rick:OJ. Like he retired, like in 82 83 because the naked guns and stuff started coming out. Like he had a short season. I think I mean a short career.
Mig:Not for running backs back then. Running backs back then only average what like five, six years.
Rick:Oh, that makes sense, probably. Yeah, I mean, that's what they do now.
Speaker 4:Well, even now, yeah, running back's never sustained long careers.
Lano:The average is five, six years.
Rick:Yeah, that's weird, because by the time they start getting started, then they just fall off.
Lano:That's what they did in our boy Jacob's run.
Rick:Yeah that's what I'm talking about. Wasted away, yep Boy Jacob's wrong, yeah, that's what I'm talking about Wasted away.
Lano:Yep, I saw a story saying that Derek Carr is one of the worst NFL starting quarterbacks. You believe it? I mean, he has to prove himself. Yeah, he hasn't done that in New Orleans, though. No, he's just. It sucks because he does have the talent he can. He has fear.
Rick:Or what is it, I don't know, man, it's.
Mig:I mean first of all if he had any consistency in coaching. I mean, that might help.
Lano:I think he just has a hard time pulling the trigger being a gunslinger.
Rick:But that's what he was known for at Fresno State. He was like a gunslinger.
Lano:He doesn't have the arm strength of like Rogers and Mahomes. Mahomes like not like, far like Mahomes, the shit that Mahomes does More like a strong arm. Like zip it in there, get it in there, you know.
Mig:Like an Aue or Marino.
Lano:Yeah, but he's still. I mean I want to defend him, but you can't Because he hasn't.
Mig:I mean I kind of still do, because the whole inconsistency of coaching and having to learn different systems.
Mig:Yeah, different systems learning, different systems learning but, with that being said, there's still a lot where I mean the coaching, I mean should have developed them better, but then that's the thing, you know, it's like it comes down to the coaching, like if you didn't have the coaching because there's so many times that we've watched them and we've broken down, and we're broken down and we're like, dude, he should have pulled the trigger right here. It's like we would rewind plays and see, right there, there's your window, dude. It's like why aren't you throwing it there?
Mig:You know, instead, of just waiting for the deep ball Right, you know it's like.
Lano:Well, the last season? You can't say it because that stupid-ass Josh McDaniels Like where the ball?
Mig:was supposed to go. That's where he went. That's what I'm saying.
Lano:So you, can't count that. But before that he did hold on to the ball a lot. I know, like dude, like pull the trigger, like anticipate that your receiver's going to be there, like to hell with it. Just do it, man.
Mig:Yeah, and that's where I was with everybody saying that he should have already shooken that shit off and been a better quarterback than he is, and he hasn't shaken it off. But that's the thing it's like. Is it because he hasn't had a consistent system to work in, so he doesn't have that confidence?
Lano:I think that's already like instinct. You got to have that already.
Mig:You see, there is an instinct.
Lano:I think at his point of his career. The quarterback either has it or he doesn't. That instinct's right there.
Rick:It should be like a veteran.
Lano:It's automatic. Like a receiver coming out of the break, it should be there already. The receiver shouldn't be already like three, four steps already into the break like I agree.
Speaker 4:No, that's where. That's where none of his interceptions came.
Rick:Yeah yeah, he's, he's just I don't know but I like I agree, he's very positive and like team yeah, like very, I mean, I wish, I wish.
Mig:Yeah, he was there with it's like I I wanted so badly, dude, for him to be the quarterback to take us to the Super Bowl. I wanted it so badly because of his ethic, because of his attitude, you know, and just because of his loyalty you know just everything about him, dude, but just man, he's like. Christian or something he just didn't develop the way he should have, but you know what he's been.
Lano:The league's like out. They were like out to get him. I don't know why, like he gets a lot of shit, you think he's a younger brother of David Carter.
Mig:They give him a lot of shit, no. No, because it could be. I would say honestly, it could be also because of the religion thing. Yeah, you know, and he puts it out there. It's just like Tebow.
Lano:Tebow, but not a lot. He doesn't do it a lot.
Mig:Not a lot, but I mean he does make it known. You know, I mean it does like make it known, you know, I mean it's just like I'm a part of him.
Lano:I don't think more than like anyone else, like well, let's see how they do CJ Stroud, yeah, let's see how they treat him. Yeah, you know, and then Wait, he's very Catholic or Christian. Yeah, yeah, he's Christian.
Rick:He's from here, right, cj Strong.
Mig:Yeah, I don't know. I don't know where he's from.
Rick:I think he's from California. He played out here in Torrance or something.
Lano:Oh, high school.
Mig:I'm not sure.
Lano:Yeah, I got to fact, check that, bro.
Rick:I had heard, because he was in the Super Bowl last year. Right, I heard no.
Lano:Who he was in the Super Bowl last year. Right, I heard no. Who was the one that was in the Super Bowl last year? It was Mahomes and the Niners dude.
Rick:Oh, he was in the playoffs last year, right.
Mig:Yeah, he made a good playoff run. That's what he did dude.
Lano:Oh, they were giving Purdy a lot of attention Because they're like showing his high school.
Rick:Yeah, this guy, they're showing his high school and stuff. Yeah, Rancho Cucamonga, oh dang.
Lano:He went to Rancho.
Rick:Cucamonga High School and they were like over there, like, oh, down the street bro. Like we support him, Like he's our guy and this and that.
Mig:Well, he definitely turned the Texans around. Man, I'll tell you that.
Lano:That's going to be my fantasy quarterback. Right there, number one pick, though.
Rick:What'd you guys? Um, since we're talking football, I know I don't like to talk about that in the air, but the raiders, no quarterback. What do you think? We're keeping the guy we got? We're gonna get some guy in free agency.
Lano:We got to battle the mustaches because we didn't the kid the kid okano versus minshu. The kid O'Connell versus Minshew. I'm not excited. Are you sold on O'Connell? No, I'm not sold on the team. No, I'm going through the motions again.
Rick:Are you sold on the coach?
Lano:Yeah.
Mig:On the coach yeah.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Lano:Hell yeah, it's going to be like every other year. We're going to have a badass defense and a shit offense. By the time the offense comes around, our defense is going to be shit, and that's it Probably. That's the cycle of the Raiders. That's how it always goes down, man.
Mig:What's going on with Devontae? Every time I see on YouTube, I see a clip or whatever there's like. It's always like a trade rumor clip, yeah and I don't click on it because I don't want to hear it. I don't want to get pissed off or whatever I got kind of tired of like wi-fi willy yeah I got tired of hearing it.
Rick:I've seen his videos yeah, that's why I stopped looking at him well, sometimes he would flip like he'll say one thing and then the next thing he's saying the opposite.
Lano:Yeah, but then the story's there, and then he'll be going into something else. And then the last part of the story is talking about that, which is like nothing. And then these guys, they start reading off these stats and he's like, when they're talking of whatever position that he's rated in blocking percentages, and they're talking about whatever position that he's rated like in blocking percentages, and they're like dude shut up, I'm like shit, I don't know, oh the one thing though in the draft did you see the players that the Raiders drafted?
Mig:I saw that tight end First, one number one tight end. Why that? What?
Rick:the hell. And they said he like not a reach. But he was drafted like a pick early, like 10 picks early.
Lano:Okay, so what I was hearing? I didn't see it, but so what they were saying is that was the best player on the board. Available. So I don't know if it's true, but that they were trying to move up so they can get their quarterback and that didn't happen. So when they were stuck where they're at, they just took the best player on the board, which is something I'm mad at.
Mig:I don't remember if it was Eric or Roger or someone, because we have that group text going, the golf group text, and one of them dudes put up one of our picks. Might have been Lee, it might have been Rand, I forget who it was. But one of the late-rounder picks that we got was a center.
Lano:Oh yeah, and this dude's a freaking animal, dude.
Mig:I saw highlights of that he is an animal man.
Lano:I checked out some of the tapes on there. I mean he finishes blocks.
Mig:dude, he doesn't stop.
Lano:Yeah.
Mig:You know his head is on a swivel and he's always looking for someone to hit dude. I'm like, wow, dude. I'm like I'm going to be excited to see this kid. It's like I know a lot of people out there don't really pay attention to the line and everything, but like me and Rick do, because we play the line, so we know the positions.
Rick:Yeah, that dude's badass. And we know the positions.
Mig:Yeah, and we know what to look for dude and watching his highlights man, I was like woo. Yes, sir, I like that.
Lano:It just sucks that we got to go through this season with quarterbacks.
Mig:I mean the thing is it almost looks like the line they're building it up to, to have that ground game, just like pound it down your throat, mm-hmm, and we lose Jacobs.
Lano:But you know, what I don't like Is they're giving Jacobs shit Defense. Nah, that's wrong. It's like Jacobs got lucky. He got out of this damn mess dude.
Rick:He went to Green Bay. Where'd he go?
Lano:Yeah, Green.
Rick:Bay.
Mig:Yeah, can't get mad at him.
Lano:No man. Nah, it's like you know. Devante wants to book it out of here. Yeah, he just went away. Sir McDaniel's just completely screwed him over three years and that's probably it. He's already out of his prime. That's what I said.
Speaker 4:From here on, he's already on his way.
Lano:I said From here on, he's, he's, he's already on his way back down, and that's messed up, man, it is Messed up, and that's that's what sucks. I mean these players too, I mean they, they, they, um, yeah, they got, do you really?
Mig:I mean with Devontae. I think he got lured here under false pretenses, though. Yeah, because they were saying like yeah, you know, we're going to reunite you with Carr, it's going to be the best situation for you, and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And that's the only reason he came.
Lano:I'm playing Monday morning quarterback after the fact. But it's like look at the organization, yeah, the organization is always dysfunctional, yeah, that's true. So, like you know what you're getting yourself into, so you want to come waste away and just, but waste away with getting paid and go to the raiders, you know. But I mean, it's just us stupid fans. We keep thinking like, oh man, yeah, just turn it, just turn it around, just turn it around.
Speaker 4:It's the same old stupid crap.
Lano:That's why I'm burned out of it.
Mig:It's like, well, we'll take seven steps forward, but then they'll knock us back another 12. Yeah, I'm like fuck.
Lano:I'm over the whole thing. I'm not excited. You gave up your tickets right, you gave them over to Miggy. Miggy's got full ownership of those things. I am no longer I'm no longer a Raiders season ticket holder.
Rick:Don't ask me for tickets. Is that You're just fed up with them or you just feel like you got too busy your life?
Lano:No, I'm fucking sick of them.
Mig:Were you not listening to the last two minutes?
Rick:No, but now you have a girlfriend, you know you're busy, you're in Mexico, you're all this stuff Again.
Mig:were you not listening to the last two or three minutes of Rick talking?
Lano:I'm burned out. Of the Raiders, dude, I'm burned out. And then this whole age of of this new sports stuff. It's just I don't want no part of it, dude. I got no love for sports anymore. I don't know what it is.
Rick:But they said that they changed some tackling rule where they're saying like it's, it's gonna be like so hard to tackle people now or something probably they got rid of some tacklers.
Lano:They're pushing. They're pushing for Mahomes To overtake Brady. Yeah, mahomes got three. He does right, they went back to back. Yeah, they go back to back. They went back to back and then before that, he had one win already, right, and he's young, so he's got three already. So he's halfway there, right, brady's got six.
Rick:That's the thing. And then there are rivals. Is that the most?
Lano:Steelers and Patriots right Six each yeah.
Mig:Cowboys.
Lano:Cowboys got five, niners, niners got five.
Rick:It's weird, the Niners always Like, come around again, like they get relevant, they make a push to the Super Bowl. Five and five got five. It's weird.
Speaker 4:The Niners always come around again.
Rick:They get relevant, they make a push to the Super Bowl. Five and five. We've been off the air so we've got to catch up. I thought we were going to have a lot of phone calls from Mark, but we just got one, no one's watching, nobody cares.
Mig:Nobody cares that we were gone, it's all right.
Speaker 4:Happy birthday.
Rick:A happy birthday, and I I don't know who that is.
Mig:On April 24th.
Rick:On April 24th, but that was. You're the only one that had a birthday Over the break, right 13.
Lano:Migs was 13. That was way back when. Yeah, yeah.
Rick:We weren't on air yet we weren't on air, so we missed Mickey's birthday over the break.
Lano:Yeah, because this dude. We went to the Renaissance Fair and this dude didn't go.
Rick:Well, that's all it asked him.
Lano:We had planned it all to go for him, and then he didn't even go.
Rick:Well, he had told me because we had did a show and then he didn't even go. Well, he had told me because we had did a show together. And then he's like, oh, this weekend I'm going to the Renaissance Fair, Rick's taking me for my birthday, and then I wanted to ask you guys about it. How was it that thing?
Lano:was awesome dude, so many years living out there in Baldwin Park, just down the street, I think even before that. I mean we would hear about it, yeah.
Speaker 4:I think even before that, I mean, we would hear about it, yeah.
Lano:Yeah, I would have seen the commercials. It's a nice set up there in Santa Fe Dam.

Lano:They said the first, the first two weeks are like the busiest. And I guess every week is like a different Like a different theme right Like a different emphasis. Yeah, so when we went it was like a pirate Medieval. Yeah, I think that's what I remember seeing.

I, I love that chicken. I mean, I love it when it's simple at that point, because it wasn't even like really breaded, it was just like nicely seasoned.
Mig:That's what it was yeah, and fried, so like there was no breading on it, so it's just like the seasoning, nice and crispy, it was juicy, it wasn't dried out, nope and it tasted like it had been branded and flavored I should have done what you did in taking the piece of chicken off the waffle because it made the waffle soggy.
Lano:But then also when I kind of messed up because I didn't realize when she said breakfast like breakfast or regular meal, I should have just said regular meal Instead of getting like the egg, the egg On top and the bacon, like I could have done without that, but that way I just had the chicken and the waffle.
Rick:No, I knew I wanted breakfast, so Well, I didn't understand like their numbering system, cause I was like I wanted to see what my sandwich looked like. Like is this right? Are 22 and 23 the same or they're different? They're different.
Lano:They're different folk 23 is just uh, fries and the waffle oh, there's some chicken there.
Rick:No, that's what I was trying to when I was at the. At the place I was like trying to see like which is which or what, and then I couldn't I couldn't match them up.
Lano:You should have asked our friend.
Rick:But I ended up getting the grumpy chicken sandwich and it was good. What kind of bread was it? It was like a A hamburger bread. Chicken breast and our house green sauce topped with salted peppers. It was like a regular.
Lano:So at first I started eating the, the chicken and waffle. I would like Cut the piece of waffle, eat it and then take a bite Of the chicken. And then I remember how Vanessa eats it, like she'll cut A piece, put it on top of the waffle, put the syrup on and then, boom, eat it like that. Yeah, that's the way to eat it, man.
Rick:Oh, because you know what you got to get the combination of both of them Like, are you like you pour the sauce on top or you cut like a little piece out and dip it in the syrup.
Lano:No, I pour it on top of the pancake.
Rick:Yeah, I cut my waffles and then I dip it in the syrup and then I take a bite. So you're saying Vanessa does the same thing.
Lano:Well, she likes putting the chicken and the waffle together. Little sandwich All one bite, yeah, one bite, and then syrup on it.
Rick:That's what my wife does too.
Lano:They make little bites Because normally I don't like syrup touching my other food.
Rick:Yeah.
Lano:But this combination like you get a piece of chicken, put it on top of your little piece of waffle and then either put the syrup on the waffle and the chicken on top of that, or just when you have it on the fork, just put a little you know drip on it.
Rick:That's good too like we're right at a new restaurant and then like I'll be like here, try my plate, like I'll give my whole plate to my wife, where she like she'll make me like a little perfect bite, like with a little bit of this, little of that, and like stacks it and like feeds it to me. And I was like, oh, that's good. And then when you give her something, I was like, oh, I just give her the plate, like, pick what you want to pick. I don't know what you want to try. But then she makes it.
Lano:Like you know, so romantic A little bit of everything. So I don't know.
Mig:But so, lady, Lady of the trip. If Are going to go to the chicken coop, I would say definitely Do yourself a favor and Try their fried chicken, whether it be the wings or a fried chicken sandwich or whatever their fried chicken Is pretty.
Lano:Damn good, you guys like.
Speaker 4:Sweet potato fries.
Rick:Sweet potato fries yeah, nah, I'm not a big fan Of sweet potato. Yeah, gotta be in the mood for it.
Mig:I'd rather have Like a sweet potato, like gotta be in the mood for it. I'd rather have like a sweet potato, like maybe a couple sweet potato.
Rick:I think you get tired of the taste of it yeah that's what it is too, too mushy for me yeah, but uh candy damsel. I didn't I didn't want to ruin the day, but like I just felt like crap, like that day yeah same thing you wanted to record. You're asking to record no, because miggy was was saying but like I was just, like you were just ready to go home and sleep. Yeah, no, that's what. I came home and I slept. My wife won't be up at like eight o'clock for some dinner yeah I had like a, like a she made soup.
Rick:I had like a couple spoons full and then I was like I just gotta go back to bed. I was asleep the rest of the day. When we got back, yeah, it was in bed we should have said food. Well, I was, but I know because we're pushing all this stuff back and I was like, no, we gotta get this done and we gotta record and and get this review but, like I felt like crap the day. Like I couldn't like after eating the nachos I could barely like eat my sandwich.
Mig:Like my was hurting the only reason I have suggested that we go and we do this and everything, because you wanted to make a big deal out of the 100th episode and you said something big was coming for the 100th episode and you made me a liar and you made me put that on the Instagram and lie to our listeners saying that something big was going to happen for the 100th episode that we're filming.
Rick:To me that's something big. Yeah, that is big.
Lano:We're filming.
Rick:We're filming now. From now on.
Mig:I figured, since I had asked you what you had planned for the big episode. You're like I don't know.
Lano:That's why I said, when you said let's go eat, I was like, well, let's go to a. I actually thought we were going to record there. Well, you're the first one that said no At the food review. Oh, record there. Yeah, oh, no, not record. Just get some kind of recording.
Rick:Well, make people take pictures for the Instagram. Make people game down on Instagram.
Lano:But you know, like that way you could like we were talking about it and then we cut. I dropped the ball there. We cut to to like at the restaurant. Yeah, we tried just little, quick, little highlights of it.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I should have done it, but then, I was thinking of bringing the.
Lano:I was even thinking of bringing the, the 360 camera just sitting right there that we can kind of like yeah panic, panic. But you know the lens. I still haven't fixed the lens, the lenses, you know um scratched up they came out with a new one.
Rick:Rick, just buy a new one. Just buy a new one. It's 8k now, 88, um, not the price, the you know 4k, 8k, but the pixel and they say it's the best action you know what I was thinking and it has lens protectors on it. You can can replace them. They come off and on. Look I still.
Lano:I haven't rolled in a damn long time. And I'm pissed about that Because work's been so busy, but I had this feeling already before, like I was like oh, I want him on the camera.
Rick:You know this and that, not that I wanted a like YouTube vlog or whatever, but then but then I was like man, I don't want to be like these, these dudes that they want to capture every damn ride and no, but now that we're getting older, like people laugh when I tell them this is like like a digital, like the podcast, like a digital history, like for my, my daughters, they can hear me, like now we're being on YouTube. Like my kids are not going to see us. Like see me young, you know they're going to know me as the old man all the time.
Lano:You're not young.
Rick:They're going to know me as the old guy, so this is like for them and stuff.
Lano:If we would have done this like 10 years ago, then they would have seen how strapping you were.
Mig:Then your lie might have been believable. Say that you were cool back then.
Lano:Maybe they would have believed that you were light.
Rick:But at the restaurant I couldn't talk because my throat was sore, so I had a strain, so I couldn't yell and the music was super loud.
Lano:You should have had a hot beverage dude like yell and the music was super loud. You should have had like a hot beverage.
Mig:That was the one complaint I did have, that I wish they would have turned that damn music down, because when the waitress was there and she was telling us the specials, I didn't hear a damn thing, the music was so loud.
Lano:All I heard is Hello, my friends.
Mig:If there's One bad thing about Our experience, there was the music was too loud. The music was too loud. But then and it's not me being an old guy and not wanting you know the music loud. It's just dude, you can't hear anybody talk.
Rick:It's annoying and it was.
Mig:Cinco de.
Rick:Mayo, so people were going to To party and I don't know if it's like that all the time.
Lano:I mean okay, later at night but not that first thing in the morning, when they open up. They open at 11 am and you don't got to have it that loud at that time.
Mig:It's brunch, dude. It's like brunch isn't supposed to be that loud.
Rick:And it sounds like they turned it up. They had music on and turned it on.
Mig:More people started showing up With, even more to your point, the Cinco de Mayo. Don't be playing this Top 40 crap. Yeah, it's like play something More appropriate.
Rick:Then, if we're gonna be blasting it, but other than all that, the food was good.
Lano:Yeah, it was good, delicious, I recommend. Yeah, now I gotta go back and try something else.
Mig:Highly recommend.
Lano:It's gonna be hard not to get a chicken and waffles.
Rick:So YouTube, this is our first review. I haven't seen any chicken coop reviews, so this might go viral. I don't know. You know there's this cooking show coming out. They're like we're going to review LA restaurants and I saw a list like episode four was going to be like Moosecraft, like best restaurants, and I was like I think we might have to revisit it. Have you, have you passed by or not seen a line outside moose craft?
Mig:no good, but then. But then I haven't passed by early enough yeah, I mean it's like I always pass by usually later in the day, like when I'm off working stuff, and I think they're already closed yeah, me too but? But I have been hearing them mention that a lot of places like Best Barbecue yeah. And Moe's is one yeah. But I mean I go back and I think about our review. And I don't think our review is far off dude. Yeah, when we complained was about the service.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Rick:But we didn't get to try everything we wanted to try. Because of the service, yeah, because of the service.
Mig:But we said the food was good. We said the food was really good. You know, just, there was a service that was bad and we complained because they already had two years going at it and they still hadn't figured out how to?
Rick:I mean, they screwed us.
Speaker 4:How to work it. We were in line.
Rick:And then they stopped our line to give the takeout order line and then they ran out of stuff.
Speaker 4:Yeah, we were waiting outside.
Lano:Yeah, those people that showed up late too, Waiting outside.
Mig:No, but then the thing is they don't have control of I guess, the phone orders coming in Like a numbering system. You know it's like they're putting priority On one and not the other Instead. They need to figure that out, you know. They need to figure out how many. How much is coming in? Yeah, two years.
Lano:Two years, those kinks should already be. Yeah exactly yeah.
Mig:I mean. But the thing is, we didn't, we didn't rip on their food. No, the food was good yeah the food was good.
Lano:You know, it's like we even said we want to go back and try the sandwiches.
Mig:Yeah.
Lano:Right so.
Mig:And I've been wanting to, but every time I want to, I go back.
Lano:They're closed. That's a. You know, chicken Koopa's got weird Hours too. Ours too, I think they open at 4 during the week. During the week, oh do they 4 to 10?
Mig:I think only on the weekends they do brunch and they open up early. Yeah.
Lano:Yeah, that's a weird schedule.
Rick:So for the chicken. I mean, if I had a restaurant I'd open late too. I mean so for the chicken coop review.
Mig:Mmm, that's right, give it two clucks up.
Rick:That was good. So we're a little over an hour. I want to keep these shows an hour.
Lano:I got to edit all this stuff, alright, but before I'm going to give you guys homework, alright, what's the homework?
Rick:Oh, I have it back here. So we were talking. I saw this on Shark.
Lano:Tank, all right, but before I'm going to give you guys homework, all right. What's the homework? Oh, I have it back here. So we were talking.
Rick:I saw this on Shark Tank. You know what? I got my next product. I got my next product. So we were talking about you know how we talk about scrapers muscle scrapers Because me and Ricky we did the marathon For all the YouTube viewers. Me and Ricky are marathon runners For all the YouTube viewers. Me and Ricky are marathon runners.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Rick:And we're talking about scrapers. You know like you scrape the muscle, like the Mondragon stuff. You know she scrapes and all that stuff.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Rick:So I'm a big Shark Tank watcher, so I don't know if you guys watch Shark Tank. No, so this company, they made soap bars it's called Soar Soap, but they made them in the shape of Scraper. The scraper, oh. And it's menthol stuff. So as you scrub yourself you like, scrape your muscles.
Speaker 4:Okay.
Lano:And it's supposed to be like what's this?
Rick:Well, I think that's for the shower, like the holder to hang it up. Oh, so it's called the soar soap.
Mig:This thing, smells good.
Rick:Smells like medicine. Well, that's why it's supposed to be like Like you know.
Lano:So this whole thing is soap, it's a bar of soap.
Rick:So it's on the neck you scrape it.
Lano:Oh man, you hold it and you, it's a bar of soap.
Rick:It's on the neck, you scrape it. Oh man, you hold it and you like as you like, lather up, you're going to be like scraping, like your body in the positions.
Lano:You paid $22 for this thing.
Rick:Well, we're going to try it out. Yeah, I mean, I bought for me and then for the house and I bought an extra one for you guys. But it's so you'll muscle scrape daily and just use that soap, and the soap is supposed to be Like special, like mint and all this other stuff, just to Like loosen up and lather Like your skin and all that stuff. So I saw it. It looked like a good idea Because we were talking about it. Damn, so like I bought extra ones so we could try it out.
