Ep. 41 – Alberga Joins the Mafia: Leafs in Shambles, NHL Money Flying, Movember Challenge & Bills Take Down Mahomes

Episode 41 is here — and it’s a heater.The boys kick things off with a classic Draft or Dump segment, ripping through everything they loved (and hated) from a wild weekend in sports. Then we dive into the heartbreak that is Toronto baseball — the Jays collapse again and the city can’t catch a damn break.We officially launch our Movember campaign for men’s health — for every $20 donated, Ryan runs 1KM in full Leafs gear and Jackson runs 1KM in Bills gear. We’re already closing in on $300, so hit the link and help us make this a movement.Then it’s hockey time. Huge extensions flying around the league — Harley, Cooley, Necas, Markstrom — everyone’s getting paid. The guys debate which deal hits hardest, who’s got the brighter future between Anaheim and Utah, and what’s really going on with the struggling Minnesota Wild.The Leafs? Still a mess. Last in the East, goaltending in shambles, and the boys are begging for Matthews to wake up. Woll can’t come back fast enough. Ryan’s boots on the ground Saturday vs Boston, so expect fireworks.Then we hand it over to Nick Alberga, Host & Director of Leafs Morning Take. One of the best conversations we’ve had yet — we talk Leafs’ struggles, what’s going on with Matthews and hia thoughts on Marner, fantasy hockey surprises, and who’s shocking the league so far. Absolute must-listen if you’re a Leafs or fantasy junkie.After that, it’s NFL chaos. The Bills take down the Chiefs (fuck you Mahomes), and we run through the entire Week 9 slate — game by game, stat by stat, and meltdown by meltdown. Taylor stays undefeated in Wildcard Women (4-0), Caitlin claws back to .500, and the Locks of the Week keep cashing (Ryan 7-2).The Ten Commandments are heating up with back-to-back winning weeks, Bet the Farm remains cursed (0-9), and the boys are looking to keep the streak rolling into Week 10.🍺 Hockey. Football. Gambling pain. Leafs sadness. Vibes only. It’s Buds Mafia — Episode 41.🎧 Available now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts & YouTube.
