Real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good, real good. Ladies and gentlemen, hello and welcome to another edition of America's Best Worst Canadian Sports Podcast. That's right, real good show is back at it again for another week. It is episode 126, number 126, and I got nothing clever or funny to say at all about that number, so we'll just move it right along.

My name is Justin Morrison, and with me, once again, as always is... Stephen Heck. John Colin, and episode 126 is how a child with developmental delays says 123. Well, I feel like you said that about 124, too.

Did I? Okay. I feel like episode 126 is like when we had media coverage and then not anymore since then. Right, I see.

I don't know if I'll get it. It's been 120 apps. Remember when we were featured in Split Sider? That was literally episode six.

That was when we got 120 episodes. That was when we got written off, and then we were in there like other podcasts we're listening to section number 10. And a few other times up until about episode 30. Oh, really?

Yeah. We were in that section like maybe three times, and then they were just like, I think we get it. But anyone writes a weekly podcast roundup. Yeah.

You know, the podcast... Throw Sider. Go on one of those lists. Just saying.

Which podcast is it, Stefan? White gas is so funny. So that would be my book. Yeah, your kid sucks.

Good pick, I think. We did get some shout outs though for the top 10 best podcasts of the year. Not from the Atlantic or anything. We're not like an NPR podcast.

No, not in any articles that people read. Yeah. But I mean, every single podcast on that list was like some corporate back in ESPN. Right, right.

Or it was like, there was a lot of different ones about how you do stuff. That was like 10 of the 20. Well, no. So 50% of them were things called the Daily Mug.

And like, sip on this while you also sip on your cup of juice. Don't talk to me before I've listened to the Daily Mug. Yeah. And then the other 50% where...

Here's a small town. Everyone here is a murderer. Oh, yeah, yeah. That's...

I like that genre. I do also like the how did we do stuff? But it's like, how do we make these shirts? So I bet you want to know.

And this podcast is going to tell you... Oh, so it's like how it's made minus the visuals. Yeah, exactly. You don't get to see any of the machines.

No, they just talk about it. Some of them just hear the machines. Exactly. If they're well edited, they just pipe in machine noise.

And then they send the shirts to the seeming machine. It really feels like you're looking at a conveyor belt. Yeah. That's like...

Hey, I can make that noise too. If you guys want to make a similar noise on this podcast. No, that's a different... I think we're okay.

Okay. Well, if you want me to, just like, it's like, 9.45. So it's getting close to that time. Where what?

Where you make a impression? He's on downing right now. Oh. I got you.

I got you. Yeah. I think that those are good. What other podcast genres do you guys like?

Ah, I'm not sure. I just... I love when I'm reading like a list about like, check out these podcasts. I always love it when they're all like, ESPN presents the radio as a podcast.

Right. Yeah. I'm not enough people know about ESPN radio. Yeah.

Yeah. No one knows. What's the radio? I thought it was pronounced radio.

Yeah. Right. But also the Sportsnet 650 podcast with you on it is great. Oh, thank you, Stefan.

So that was like, yeah. But I don't think it's the same as the radio though. I don't think that got listed on any best of. Well, I did.

It was on Sportsnet's best of podcasts. I always appreciate. And I think it's entirely because when I post the links and stuff in the Facebook group, if you go on like any of the shows on 650 that I produce and like chime in on, when you open like any podcast now in the podcast app, it'll give you like best of the show. And it's like the two most downloaded episodes.

And it's always my episodes. Oh, so they're going to like, they're going to plug. Yeah. I feel like my online following from RGS is really making a happen for me.

Absolutely. Well, I appreciate that. 100 is. 7 listens.

Yeah. That's it. It's your right. It is.

I speaking of us speaking of the best. I'm sorry, John. I kind of interrupted it. Oh, that's OK.

I was just going to keep this podcast genre a bit. Roll. No, I like it. Let's keep it going.

All right. My other favorite podcast genre is a quiet talking story. That's my other favorite one. They were in the woods and they heard us out.

And then it cuts to like, oh my god, I'm so scared. Is this like, is this like a fictitious? Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. It's like written. Yeah. Quiet talk story.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's like when you used to listen to the vinyl cafe and like one of your buzzes broken.

Yeah, exactly. Except like David Moore. Like did a murder or something. Yeah, exactly.

Yeah. It was like listening to the vinyl cafe. But if everything was like fake scary. Yeah.

It was a ghost in the Thanksgiving turkey or whatever. Yeah, exactly. I was watching the Toronto Maple Leafs. They've entered all Canadians on TV.

They've had to throw the turkey in the garbage that year because there was a ghost in it. Mmm. What are we talking about? We're talking about our favorite podcast genre.

You know what? Stefan tried to segue a little bit earlier. Sorry. He's like the best.

Yeah. I was trying to do like a Stuart McLean impression. But I realized I kind of forgot what he sounds like. He's got kind of like a not higher voice.

But like, OK, give back to me this. I might have something. I read last. Like, yeah, yeah.

And I don't have that voice ever really surreal obnoxious. Whatever impression you were going to do of him, though. You just need to add like some rattling chains and stuff now. Yeah, exactly.

Because yeah, like some very vague like string music in the background. And you can hear like the sound of like smoke filling the way. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sorry.

By vague on that faint. That's the word I was looking for. Faint violent music. Can I have an impression for us, Stefan?

You know what? Get back in the oven. I think you can do it. I think your voice is like right in the right range.

I think you're understanding yourself here. Yeah, I'm sorry. I know it's been 126 episodes. And you guys have always bugged me to do my impressions of Stuart McLean.

No, no, of the sewing machine. And so I finally did it. You're welcome. Oh, yeah, yeah.

No, I appreciate that. Of the T-shirt printing machine. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

T-shirt printing machine is. You should do fully work. Buddy, I've wanted to. That's like keep calling my friend Sean Foley.

You just get your agent on the line. Yeah, exactly. Hey, hey, get me in touch of Foley. Is there a market for stand-up comedians who do special effects?

Do you do a mouse Foley? Yeah. Like the guy from Police Academy. Yeah, exactly.

Michael Winslow. Yeah, exactly. Michael Winslow. I'm like the white Michael Winslow.

You can only do industrial machine noise. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. So what was my impression going to be the final cafe if it was like a murder?

Yes. Yeah. Or if Dave and Morley were murderers. Exactly.

Yeah. Oh, fuck. OK. Because I listened to a lot of vinyl cafe when I was younger.

Yeah, I'm not sure what I was on all the time. Our American listeners might have no idea what we're talking about here. It's Canada's equivalent of who's the NPR sex test? Dude, there's some gealer.

Yeah. Yeah. Except this guy, it's never claimed it was like a good guy. That's how we all know about the sex test.

Yeah. Storrove playing was a good guy. Vinyl Cafe was like a weekly touring show on CBC radio. Yeah.

So you just tell stories of these. Yeah, exactly. And the husband and wife was Dave and Morley. Yes.

Actually, I love that movie too, a Prairie Home Sex Pest. Yeah. Classic. Absolutely.

That was fuck who. Right. That is the movie about Garrison Keeler. It is.

That's an adaptation. That was the show. OK. That's what I thought.

But I was like, you guys know me with movies. I was only like 60% sure that that was actually the name of the show. I thought there was a good chance that I was just going to say the name of a Christopher Guest mockumentary. And just like.

It's directed by Robert Altman. Sure. Yeah. See, I don't even know who that is.

Oh, he's like that. I know that name. But if you're like, hey, name another Robert Altman movie, I'll be like, I don't know, Jack at all. You did mash.

Oh, the movie of mash TV show. Oh, Nashville. Mashville. OK.

I think I was too big. I love it. I've got the impression. I think I've got the impression.

OK. I'll go for it. Yeah. OK.

If it's OK, if it's bad, just cut it out all together. No, we're leaving it in no matter what. I think you know that. OK.

All right. OK. But Dave had hardly pulled in to the driveway when he realized the worst had happened. Is this pretty good?

This is good. This is good, I think. He left his jacket made a few minutes in at the hardware store. And there's like polite applause.

No, that was good, man. OK. I'm going to see if I can like listen to a clip together. Yeah, I did.

I looked up a quick to kind of get the. I'll play a little bit for our listeners here. So the Nova Scotia vacuum cleaner company. Yeah, you did pretty good.

You need a little bit more gravitas. Yeah, I think that's what it is. Because he has a lot of pauses. Yeah.

The Nova Scotia vacuum cleaner. He slows down the sentence as it goes on. But I think like for first time, that's you know, that's the impression I'm going to work on is the vinyl cafe. I think you can do it.

It's like right in your range. It is. It's sort of about the voiceboard. You did great, honestly.

We're all proud of you. So I'm going to be right in to Stefan and say, great Stuart McLean. Even if you have no idea what that is, just keep encouraging our boy to do these uncommon Canadian impersonations. Maybe it'll become a thing.

Maybe it'll be kind of a weekly or like bi-monthly, Stuart McLean impression. Yeah, I mean, we've had so many bits that we've just like forgotten about. That's true. Here's my Rita McNeil impression.

It turns out that Perry Home Companion was actually Robert Altman's last film before he died. Oh, he died. So he didn't live long enough to find out that Garrison Keillor was the sexist best, unfortunately. That's fine.

But maybe he did find out. He knew too much. He brought too much. I'll be honest, boys.

I found him in Lake Wobegan or wherever the stories take place. Yeah, Winnetonka. From Minnetonka. Lake Minnetonka.

I'm going to be honest with you guys. I think we should quit RealGoodShow. This is the last episode. This is the last episode.

This is the last episode. I say tomorrow we fly to New York. We pitch Ira Glass on a Prairie Home sex pest. I think the story of how Robert Altman was murdered by Garrison Keillor.

Ira is in Chicago, but I don't care if it's flawless. You know how like Kiss has like tribute bands? Let's do that, but for vinyl cafe. Yeah, exactly.

A tribute radio show. It'll be the vinyl catfay. It'll be the vinyl cafe.com. Yeah, there we go.

Oh, here we go. Just a real company shill over there, A7. All right. I love work.

Well, before we get into this episode, which we do have some things to talk about. We do have a lot of donors to think. So let's because we still don't have any ads. If you're a company and you want to sponsor the show, we'll accept.

We'll accept. So send the thing. But let's thank you. You got yourself a deal.

Yes, done. Okay. We promise not to talk about sexual touching and referring to your company as a some sort of mass repository pun as well. We promise not to do that.

I'm going to be honest with you. We are good. That podcast we just talked about about Garrison Keillor being the sex pest. We're going to work your ads into that.

Yes. Robert Altman was taking a sip of his cherry Dr. Pepper. It's definitely going to do the whole thing in his Stuart MacLaine impersonation.

Yes. Yeah. It's going to be great. I'm all about it.

So if you'd like to sponsor that show by all means. Send us in your money. Yes. Brought to you by cherry Dr.

Pepper. I don't know why we were talking about that before the show. That was the first brand that came to mind. It's popping up in Canada lately.

I just think that Dr. Pepper is cherry enough. I don't need more. That's probably some cherry in there.

It's part of the 21 flavors. Is that whatever it is? 13, maybe? No, that's KFC spices.

Yes. I think it's 21. Is that the number on the can? Oh, let me see.

Yeah. I'm not sure. It might be like 23 or some weird shit. There's definitely a three in there.

I'm pretty sure. 23. 23. And all 23 ended up in there.

Now can you do some fully work on what the soda? All the syrup spilling into one thing sounded like? Well, you know that syrups don't make a noise. Just to make the most silent of all the things.

Here's my impression of all the syrups combining at once. No, that's Justin made that noise. I was doing the accurate impression, which is silence. Yes.

Yeah. That's actually that is the other podcast we're doing. How it was made, Dr. Pepper, but it's 126 episodes long.

We just guessed. We just guessed. What the 23 flavors are. By God, Robert, there's been accident.

23 of the syrups all got into the machine. What are we going to do? I've also heard that if you just like combine cola and root beer, that's the same as Dr. Pepper's.

No, there's no way that's right. No, because there's definitely like a fruity flavor to that. Oh, I do. Okay.

Well, maybe some work in writing and tell us, but in the meantime, I'm going to look up on the Dr. Pepper Wikipedia page, but we're also going to thank our donors. And so let's do that sweet, sweet door theme. Thank you for donating to the show.

To the show. You work hard for your money that we know that we know the segments where we read out all your names. We say it wrong. Your parents are to blame.

Your parents. There it is. Okay. Patrick reinders.

Patrick reindeers. Yeah, he took a he had a real good Christmas. He got tipped and he pledged five of those dollars to us. So thank you.

Thank you so much. Max Kingsbury also pledged $5 and Max a true king. I will say so myself and unlike Robert Altman, we will not bury you for what you know. I've come here not to bury you, but to praise.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Go off King and Max had a nice message for us as well.

I've been listening to the regular show for free like a scumbag and I'm going to just interrupt his thing right here. This is an editorial. Yes. This is from him.

Yes. Saying if you don't donate to the show, you are a scumbag. I'm not saying it, but I'm not disagreeing with it. Okay.

I've been listening to the regular show for free like a scumbag for a few months, but after that Jesse Ferrer L segment, I had to pay up, keep up the great work. You know, a lot of people wrote in with very kind words about that. Yes. So thank you.

Thank you to everyone who has Marco Gonzalez pledges $5 and 69 cents. Speedy. Yes. Thank you, Marco.

He's probably never heard that. He's a scumbag. Yes. Exactly.

We can do his name again if you want. Yeah. He will three take that one. Okay.

We received a $5.69 pledge from Marco Gonzalez. On the way. On the way. Okay.

Well, the first time was only you should probably leave that. You should I would say definitely delete that. I was going to say polo. Yeah.

That's right. That's right. Marco. So I'll do the third time.

Yeah. Okay. So you just received a new $5.69 pledge from Marco Gonzalez. Thank you.

Yeah. Marco Polo. Yeah. Like Marco Polo Polo.

It's everyone feels it. We've received a $5 pledge and surprisingly it didn't come from Venmo. It came from Eric Vento. So thank you.

Eric Vento for the $5 pledge. Thank you very much, Eric. Ben Lee. Also pledged $5 to the show.

Is that like an Australian musician, I'm pretty sure? Sure. Yeah. I think so.

Whatever. Sounds like it. Ben Lee. Just make it a little Ben Lee.

Yeah. Australian musician. Sure. Sounds like thank you to Ben Lee.

We also have a big pledge to announce. We're going to get to that in a minute. We've also received a $5 pledge from Patrick Walseth. So thank you, Patrick.

This is a lot of new donors. I know we did a lot of new donors. Thank you for spending your Christmas money on us. He looks like he was a baseball player as well.

There's a picture of him. His Patreon picture is of him as a back catcher. So I just did a little quick Google search of Patrick Walseth and he looks like he played some baseball for Benedictine College. College ball.

Just a college ball boy. So yeah, my all the matter. Yes, absolutely. So congratulations on your career as a Raven.

And thank you for donating to the show. I'm Raven about your performances in college ball. Yes. I mean, that was that's the one we should edit out actually.

Leave in the racially insensitive one and keep that one out. We also received a $5 pledge from R. Just the letter R. Thank you.

So thank you R. This week's episode is brought to you by the letter R. Nice. That's a good Sesame Street reference.

I like that. We also received a $5 pledge from Likley. She wrote in as well, which says, and said, just subscribe to your Patreon because I love and support you all. You guys really got me through some horrible data entry jobs over the last year and a half.

Happy new year. And I want to say Likley. Yeah. Thank you.

Thank you very much. Yes. Thank you. The top pledge or not top pledge, but the last pledge.

This is a little bit perplexing. Seems like someone who donated must follow me on Instagram. Or you talked about it on the show last week. Yes.

Your new projector set up with the song. Oh, did I? Yes. So I received a $5 pledge from John's body pillow.

So yes, I do have a phenomenal body pillow in my bed. And it is the most comfortable thing that I've ever, I never want to leave my bedroom. It's weird though that you dress it up in women's clothes though. I found that a bit perplexed.

Well, that's, that's for me and my son. I don't, I wouldn't, yeah, it doesn't, I'm not saying my body pillow has a name, but I'm not saying it has a name. You know, if I had to name it anything, it would probably be Rebecca, but I'm not going to go. I'm not going to say that that's officially its name, but it might be on that topic also.

We did get a letter. Someone wrote in, in fact, friend of the show, Josh, you're writing after he listens to the last week's episode to say that there was no jerking each other off under your seat. So your story checked out with at least one participant still waiting to hear from Matty, though. I'm not sure.

I'm not saying he's sleeping with Robert Altman right now, but I'm not not saying that if you know what I mean. Yeah. And finally, we received a $100 pledge from longtime listener. I think day one listener of the show, Dylan Sears, John Scott on Twitter.

And he writes in and says, Hey, fellows, I just raised my pledge to the Hondo Mark. I know I set up a four, but I want to request a bonus episode about your very real undying admiration of the Cleveland Browns. You know what? I'm trying, I'm going to see, and I don't know if this is cheating.

I don't know if this is what Dylan wants or not, but friend of the show, Sadia Shah, who I work with at sports net. That is actually genuinely a die hard lifelong fan of Cleveland Browns. Let's bring him on. We are.

We're going to talk about, of course, our very real undying love for the Browns. No joke. No, it's not an act. It's not pretend whatsoever.

No, never. But just in case I feel like that should also I would. I think you would come on for a bonus. I don't know if you would do a public episode.

I'm not sure about that. Yeah. But I think you come on for a bonus. And I'll tell you right now, this is how much I love the Cleveland Browns as we're recording this episode.

I'm holding my son Brady Quinn Cullen. So that's how much I love the Cleveland Browns. I love the Browns so much that I named my couch Tim. Nice.

Good one. Justin. I love the Browns so much that Johnny Manziel. My favorite movie is draft day starring Kevin Costner.

Okay. See, when you start, like on last stream last week, I was taking up a bunch of Kevin Smith's old tweets about his wife's ass. Oh, yeah. Of course.

And he just talk. He calls it her. He says like, I love her Brown. So like it's really gross.

Well, the famous tweet is referred to as Brown area. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

But it gets so much worse. So you guys keep talking. You guys are going to get your reaction. But we have other stuff to get to obviously.

Yeah. We're going to actually talk about sports a little bit this week. A little bit of throwback because there's some crazy shit. Yeah.

Crazy shit going on in sports. This is not just nominally in sports podcast this week. There is a lot to dive into here. And of course, the biggest one of all was what was creating such a huge stir on all over social media on Friday night.

And that was the captain of the Swedish world junior team, Leah Sanderson, took his silver medal that he was presented with after Sweden lost. And shoved it up his ass. Canada. He took it right off his neck and he threw it directly into the crowd.

Respect. And he was not about that. Yes. A lot of people who have never won anything.

Yeah. A lot of stupid idiots. Stupid, very dumb idiot. Yeah.

Yeah. I mean, I was not alone in having this take that you cannot complain about the lack of personality displayed by hockey players and then also be outraged by the fact that he would throw his silver medal into the crowd. And that drew a lot of complaints from people being like, there's no way that those two are the same thing. Like it got compared to that drill tweet that there's no difference between good and bad things.

You idiot, you fucking moron or whatever the specifics of that tweet are. But I'm going to say that they actually are the same. It is the same culture that gets outraged about that. Even though, look, I will admit that him throwing the medal into the crowd is not the greatest move.

It's kind of a jerk thing to do. But it's the same people who get mad, the same culture of like everything must conform. That on the opposite end of the spectrum, like tells PK Subban that he's having too much of a good time during the Stanley Cup final. And because he's been making so many jokes in the press throughout the series, he's not allowed to do media anymore for the final three games of the Stanley Cup final.

It is the same culture, just opposite sides of the dual-edged sword as it were. But you also forget, Leo Sanderson is white. That's true. So there is that, at least he's got that going for him.

Yeah, so you'd think that people would be okay with it on that end. Yeah, but he's Swedish, which is in hockey. It's true. It's bad.

And it's soft. Yeah. I mean, ultimately, it's just a very funny thing to happen. I thought it was great.

I mean, it was great because he, you know, his quotes after were really funny. He's like, oh, it just seemed like that guy wanted the medal more than I do. And he like backed up saying like, I want a silver at the U18s two years ago. I haven't looked at it once.

Who cares? Like, and ultimately, like it's his. So the thing I didn't like about it was that there were like adults, like like grown people who were like, wow, well, he's, he's going to regret that. Now when he's older, like me, then he's going to look back and wish he had that.

Yeah. And it's like, I don't, I mean, is he, you know, I like, I thought there was a really good tweet from Colton Tobert who I've actually talked about on the show before as a feud with his brother. Yes, exactly. And I still am as far as I know, but he actually had a great tweet where he said, so Colton Tobert played in the world, juniors, and he's 27.

He's, you know, has these almost 10 years removed from that experience. And he says, nobody wants a silver medal in the world, juniors mines tucked away in some memory box in a closet and I haven't looked at it or touched it since. I couldn't stop a two on one to save my life that night in Saskatoon. It still stings and it hurts watching highlights.

So I mean, that's actually someone who's been there had that experience and is like 10 years later. Yeah, I've never looked at that silver medal. So that's the thing to me is like, you know, I get a lot of commentators played in the NHL and maybe had some of those similar experiences and maybe they feel a little bit differently about it. But it was also really funny that people who aren't athletes at all and have never come in second place were just like, oh, yeah, like get that out of here, you know.

But also to be fair, I think it's important to give some, some, just like background on Colton Tobert the same night. This is what he also tweeted. Okay, okay. So we can't, so you can't take it too seriously.

Twitter folk, what's your take on this whole WJC metal stuff? You lose gold medal, meaning you lose win a silver medal, but the bronze medal game, you win the bronze. So it almost feels better winning bronze than losing the gold and winning a silver hashtag I'm tired. That makes sense to me though.

Like it kind of wins. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And I mean, technically you want to be able to play for silver as well. So it's the same amount of winning and losing, but like in the moment it feels different.

I think that like silver medals and stuff I feel like we're initially created in like races where like it feels like you still did really well to come second, you know, like you do your downhill skiing race, you had the second fastest time, you're like, holy shit, I'm the second best in the world. Fuck yeah, you didn't lose a game. You put it all out there and you turned out to be the second best and you're like, Hey, that's pretty damn good. I got a medal.

I'm happy with that. But then like in team competitions, it really messed everything up where you had to start playing games where you were awarded a medal, but you lost the game. True. So I do agree that that kind of skews your perspective a little bit.

I will say I was very heartened to see that's one of the, you know, an adult commentator who had the kids back was my own coworker at Sportsnet as well. Corey Hirsch played with Anderson's dad in Nashville and that he's known him growing up and that his dad had huge fires of pro and that the kid was displaying the same thing right there and what team wouldn't want that. And Corey also won the silver medal in the 1994 Lilla Hammer Olympics. He got foursberg.

He got foursberg for the winner. I think he knows a thing or two about the sting of silver medals. I will throw him on this one. Oh boy, for every, because we haven't done like serious sports talk for a bit.

So for every serious bit of sports talk we do, I'm going to read a Kevin Smith tweet about his asshole or his wife's asshole. Good call. So that was one. So here's the first Kevin Smith tweet.

So someone asked him, does your wife ever eat your ass? And then he replied, as is the 4th of July 2010, she could never find my brown eyes, sir, even when she rolled me around and flour. Move on to the next series. We won't even talk about it.

It's like a palate cleanser. It's like an amused bush. Oh boy. Yeah.

Sure. So I'm just looking at the Dr. Pepper page and it doesn't really seem to say what any of the flavors are, although it does say that the recipe is kept as two halves in safety deposit boxes in two separate Dallas banks. Because that's that's a thing that you need to do.

Also Corey Hirsch had a similar tubert moment where he kind of discounted his whole Leah Sanderson opinion by saying that the world junior players being on their cell phones after winning the gold medal was worse than him throwing the medals in the sand. Yeah. But a lot of people were super upset about them all because sports net posted a tweet. So that's all of the kids sitting in their stall be like, this is how women and he'll celebrate the gold medal when they have been shut off from the entire world for like the three weeks, two weeks of the tournament and then the week of like training leaning around Christmas.

Yeah. Where they're not allowed to speak to they get to talk to their parents for 10 minutes a day, like at the end of the day, but like no contact with friends or family or anything like that beyond that. So fucking of course they're going to be on their phones. Yeah.

And they already spent close to an hour celebrating with their teammates on the ice after they got the medal. And that was like, and there were a bunch of former pros who were chiming in like, oh, boys, the plain days are gone before you know it. The number one thing you're going to miss is the time spent with your teammates. But no, they all they all just did that.

And why are they going to go drinking their fucking 19? Yeah, exactly. They're in the States. They're in Buffalo.

They cannot drink legally even if they want to. What are you? What are we talking about? True.

Dr. Pepper, in 1913 was marketed the flavor was marketed as liquid sunshine. This ad is amazing. This is from 1913.

Scientists tell us that all spaces in ocean of ether in which our solar system swims and that all life, animal and vegetable is derived from the sun's energy transmitted to our planet by this ether. Plant life organizes this energy for us in nature's laboratory. As animals, we then partake of nature's bountiful store and the sun's energy. Certain fruits, nuts and sugar cane represent this energy and vitality best.

We have found this great natural law and we combine these substances with distilled water. The name we give our combination is Dr. Pepper. Dr.

Pepper is liquid sunlight. As the sun rules and governs the day, so should you govern your appetite. Eat and drink to build up the cells that are broken down by fatigue, mental or physical. It's a beverage that promotes cell building, not one that simply deadens the sensory nerves.

Drink Dr. Pepper, solar energy, liquid sunshine, vin, vigor, vitality. That is what Dr. Pepper means.

Try it. On sale at all fountains and in bottles. It's made in Texas. It's profits are spent in Texas to promote Texas Industries.

Dr. Pepper company, Waco, Texas. And then the newspaper print ad from 1903. 1913.

1913. That promotes it as Dr. Pepper King of beverages. I would actually kill to have that on a t-shirt without like sunshine right there.

Awesome. That'd be so sick. We're gonna keep the sports talk going here though. This comedy podcast thing.

No, no, no, no. This is comedically inclined. I feel like we cannot not talk about this because this was a question that was posed to us maybe like a year ago. I feel like this came to us in the mailbag and we all went down the YouTube rabbit hole of watching like the Mr.

Perfect videos from the WWE vault of Kurt Henig like throwing a touchdown pass to himself all the way down the field. It was asked to us if any of the three of us as part of the mailbag last year could throw a touchdown pass to ourselves. And I believe we came to the conclusion that we could but only if it had an enormous arc. So basically you're doing this from like the three yard line and throwing the ball directly straight up into the air and then catching it yourself when it comes down in the end zone.

I believe that is what we settled on that this was the only way that this could be physically possible. Yeah. And yet somehow this past Saturday during the NFL playoffs and the game between the Tennessee Titans and the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Marcus Marioda threw a touchdown pass to himself as part of the Titans drive to win this game. And God, you got to feel bad for the Chiefs on some level.
