1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,600 Listen here you big muncho maniacs, I'm lovin' the show so far. 2 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:12,480 And you better bet dollars that dog nuts keep it coming or I'm gonna throw you from the top rope. 3 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,480 You're in big trouble, Don Cali. You eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast. 4 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,120 You eat pieces of shit for breakfast? 5 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:29,120 No. 6 00:00:53,120 --> 00:01:03,120 Welcome back to Breakfast of Champions Season 1, Episode 4. 7 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,000 We made it. Four episodes deep. 8 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:14,240 Just since last we've kind of joined one another. We've had this idea kind of farting around for a 9 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:20,480 while and we thought, you know, let's just kind of get together and let's do it. We got some, 10 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:25,760 you know, introductory equipment and we've been, you know, meeting together in this practice space 11 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:31,920 that we used to share with our band. And since last we've spoken, we have uploaded two episodes 12 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,120 to the world. Yes, the second episode went live today. 13 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:43,280 Correct. So yeah, we're super excited. If you've got a platform that you listen to podcasts on, 14 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:49,200 be it Apple Podcast or Spotify or YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts, however you get 15 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:55,600 your podcasts, we're on there. So if you're a family member or a friend or someone we've given $20 16 00:01:55,600 --> 00:02:02,720 to, like, share, subscribe, rate, review, all of the tacky things that you hear other people say, 17 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:09,360 it just helps us out. It costs you nothing. You know, it helps us put the word in there that 18 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:15,200 we're out there and there are people listening to us. So just kind of a word to that previous 19 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:19,440 episodes, we didn't have a grasp on like how that all was going to like look or work. And 20 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:26,080 now we have like a little RSS feed and it's like a real, we're big boys with big boy podcast stuff. 21 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,000 So and you're going to get to hear this spiel every episode for the next 22 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:35,600 96 episodes, 95 episodes. I don't know how to count. Wow. 23 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:42,960 Minimum. Minimum. 95 more episodes. So if you've never joined us before, this is a podcast about 24 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:47,680 breakfast foods and violence in previous episodes. We've talked about donuts. We've reviewed donuts. 25 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:54,080 We've talked about a little bit of violence, our personal violence histories. I was kind of like 26 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,920 thinking back on that episode after last we left and I was like, oh, there are two big ones that I 27 00:02:57,920 --> 00:03:04,560 kind of left out there. So we might have a part two on that or maybe just integrate those two fight 28 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:09,040 stories into some other podcasts that we do in the future. So that's kind of the beauty of kind 29 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,320 of like getting to listen back to some of these is going, oh, man, I should have said this, I 30 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:17,280 should have said that. And that automatically generates content for future episodes. So this 31 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:24,720 episode, I am again, the second episode, I was just like a little boy, just giddy, but little boy 32 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:30,400 because I was blessed with Parker's dreamboat donut creations and we reviewed those and stuff. 33 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:37,600 But I mean, I'm getting just, you know, hit with like the most homemade thing you can make someone 34 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:45,440 and that is pancakes. So Parker has cooked us graciously, just a big old stack of flat 35 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:49,760 jacks over there. Flat Jacks, grilled cakes, grilled cakes, whatever you want to call them. 36 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:55,280 There's some bacon. There's some real maple syrup over there. Straight from Canada. Yeah, man. So 37 00:03:55,280 --> 00:04:00,640 that's going to be kind of the theme of the episode is pancakes, maple syrup, and we're going to talk 38 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:06,960 hockey this episode. So we'll get into that later. But just just quickly, just touching on it a little 39 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,400 taste into what's to come in this episode, we're going to get into some hockey stuff. 40 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:17,440 Tell us about what you brought. Yeah. So like you said, pancakes, bacon, maple syrup. When I think 41 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,720 hockey, I think Canada. When I think Canada, I think maple syrup, which then makes me think of 42 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:28,800 pancakes. So yeah, I just I made some pancakes, which I did some reading, because like, 43 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:34,400 pancakes also make me think of Canada. Unfortunately, the Tim Hortons here in North 44 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:40,000 Texas has not opened yet or else we would have gotten some Timmy's. That didn't happen, unfortunately. 45 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:46,960 But yeah, so I did some research on pancakes. Actually, pancakes were probably eaten in prehistoric 46 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:53,200 times from the little bit of research I did. But North American pancakes, whether you're in 47 00:04:53,200 --> 00:05:00,560 the US, Canada, it's pretty much the same thing. So yeah, I mean, these are just basic 48 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:06,720 pancakes. Nice. So nothing, nothing super crazy or special, just homemade pancakes. 49 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:14,720 Did you eat pancakes a lot growing up? No. Yeah. We kind of talked about this in the first or 50 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:21,440 second episode. Biscuits and gravy were like the go to carb for breakfast. Sure. Me personally, 51 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:28,960 I prefer like a really good waffle over pancakes most of the time. Like 52 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:36,000 pancakes are actually at the bottom of my big three breakfast carbs. Like number one, 53 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:45,360 number one would be waffle. Number two would be a good French toast. Okay. And then number 54 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,120 three is pancakes. Like as far as like sweet breakfast carbs, like biscuits and gravy, 55 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:53,200 number one category of its own and then savory on the other side, because that could be a meal 56 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:59,520 on its own. Normally like pancakes, waffles, French toast, you're going to want like a bacon, 57 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:05,920 a sausage, you're going to want toast, you're going to want or not toast. I'm blanking out. 58 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:13,520 Eggs. That's it. That's hash browns. So I do remember speaking of pancakes, you want to, 59 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,960 we don't have any plates here, so we're probably just going to have to do a roll in dippers. 60 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,320 I was going to say we get that lid for the Tupperware. Like we can do that. 61 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:28,640 Also, pancakes are kind of finger food. That's right. So my dad has a pretty good pancake recipe 62 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:35,440 kind of in previous episodes. We just got our love of cooking in the first episode. And 63 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:41,600 my dad has been cooking the same pancake recipe since I was a little boy. He doesn't look up in 64 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:46,960 anything. It's just all in his head. All of the measurements are in his head. And they come out 65 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:53,360 perfect every single time. They're big, they're thick, they're fluffy. It's just one of those 66 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:59,520 things that he usually on weekends, he'll get a wild hair and he'll just wake up and then it'll be 67 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,760 a huge stack of pancakes there. And then he does that short order kick thing where whenever 68 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:09,360 someone comes to get their pancake, like, how do you like your eggs? So I did grow up eating 69 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:16,960 pancakes. The other thing that reminded me just now is we had an emo brunch here. Oh, yeah. Like a year ago. 70 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:25,120 I've actually got the recording on my phone of that. Beautiful. So we as older gents in the punk 71 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:31,520 rock scene, practice times, you know, get harder whenever there's children involved or whenever 72 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:36,400 there's like people's jobs involved or even just as the fact that we're going to like we're pushing 73 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:41,760 40 now and it's like, do I want to be at a practice space at midnight or do I want to be at a practice 74 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:49,040 space at like 11 a.m. Yes. So, you know, we went with the route of like, well, let's make it fun. 75 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:54,000 So not only are we going to be here at 11, let's have some like breakfast foods. And so Parker, 76 00:07:54,000 --> 00:08:01,120 you made a blueberry pancakes for us. Yeah. And then we got some mimosas happening. Mimosas, coffee. 77 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:05,760 Yeah, it was a really good time. And it was probably one of the better practices we had had. 78 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:11,040 So I think we were all firing on all of them early and we were fueled with carbs and caffeine. 79 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,400 So the other thing I think about when I think about pancakes is like you were saying, 80 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:21,920 the pancake versus waffle debate, but that leads us to, you know, like I hop versus like 81 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:27,440 waffle house or Denny's versus, you know, in our pancake house or whatever. And so 82 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:34,560 what's your favorite like chain pancake? Do you have one? Okay. So like I can taste a Denny's 83 00:08:34,560 --> 00:08:41,200 pancake right now. I'm I hop. Yeah. And I kind of rode off for a while like 84 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:47,040 here in Fort Worth, we've got Old South Pancake House for sure, which I've got lots of stories 85 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:51,280 about that place for another episode. Yeah, who doesn't we'll have to have an old South episode. 86 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:55,040 I've got the perfect guest for this to love breakfast food and violence. 87 00:08:56,560 --> 00:09:02,720 And has eaten a lot of old South with me. Anyway, I digress. So that's like having a 88 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:07,440 girlfriend from Denton. Like you, you know, like if you're in and around this area, like you've 89 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,600 had a girlfriend from Denton or like if you've gotten into it at the chat room or like it's like 90 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:18,240 just mandatory Fort Worth bullshit. It's like being way too drunk at Old South Pancake House 91 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:23,600 and just like hearing somebody get into a fight or you and somebody that you're with gets into it 92 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:28,400 with somebody or even the staff, they're not the friendliest when it comes to dealing with drunk 93 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:32,960 assholes that they're in the morning, four o'clock in the morning. So frog fries baby for life. 94 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:38,800 That actually reminded me of an IHOP violent story in my past when I was 18. 95 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:44,000 Perfect time to tell it. It's it isn't that crazy. Well, you tell that I'm going to make a little 96 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:50,400 roll up and dip. Yeah. So so I guess I'll start IHOP is my pancake of choice from a chain. 97 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:57,200 And then so yeah, the story I was 18. I worked at Virgin Megastore and Great Find Mills. 98 00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:03,440 And all my friends were back in town for Christmas. They'd all been partying and drinking all day and 99 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:07,360 you know, having fun. I'd been at work all day because it was right after Christmas retail. 100 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:12,480 And I roll up to IHOP to hang out with them and these dudes come up and just start like talking 101 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:17,920 all this shit to us. It's not even all that late. It's like nine or 10 at night. And they're talking 102 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:22,240 all this shit and we're laughing at them thinking they're joking. We're all we train MMA. Like we're 103 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:27,200 going to the UFC. We're going to kick your asses. We're all a bunch of like kind of scrawny punk 104 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:32,800 dudes. Or just like, all right, yeah, like why are you fucking with us? Leave us alone. They like 105 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:37,840 make some noise. IHOP chases them out. So no violence actually happened. It was just a threat of 106 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:44,320 violence. Yeah, violence and the ether. Yeah. cops show up. They hassle us. Other guys are gone. 107 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:50,480 I end up getting a minor in consumption. Oh, no. I had just been working 12 hours. Oh, no. 108 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:54,640 I was like, you can breathalyze me like, no, your eyes are bloodshot. I was like, 109 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:59,200 I don't do drugs. I don't smoke pot. Like I don't drink. Like, come on. Like, no, 110 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:03,120 you're underage. Your friends are all clearly drunk. You're under the consent like under 111 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,720 something. Write me a ticket. Tell me if I get in my car, they'll arrest me and take me to jail. 112 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:14,320 There's a hospital across the way. I go over blood test, breathalyzer, urine test, all of it. 113 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:20,080 100% clean. Take it to court. Some of the guys who are there who had been drinking 114 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,240 rolled over on everybody else. So they're like, oh, we know you were drunk. I was like, oh, 115 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:29,760 that's weird. I've got all this paperwork. And they're like, why didn't your friends do that? 116 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,440 And I was like, I don't know. I'm not in their heads. Like, well, 117 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,680 shouldn't have been hanging out with them. Here's three months probation. No way. Yeah. 118 00:11:37,680 --> 00:11:45,120 Yeah. Yep. So no violence. Just bullshit. Yeah, no way. So this podcast is brought to you by 119 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:51,760 Mountain Dew Baja Laguna Lemonade. It is Mountain Dew with a blast of natural and artificial mango 120 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:59,520 lemonade flavors. I got this one over at the 7-Eleven. We're celebrating the 20th Baja 121 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:07,920 anniversary. So grab yourself a Mountain Dew Baja Laguna Lemonade crack one with the boys. Oh, it 122 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:15,120 just sprayed me in the face. Yeah, it shot everywhere. That was great. Yeah. Okay. Huge 123 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:23,120 question for you. Bacon. Bacon. Are you a crispy bacon guy or like pliable bacon guy? Dude, I 124 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:29,040 like it all. There's not. There's no bad bacon in my opinion. If I'm cooking it for myself, 125 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:33,520 I'm trying to get a nice balance of crispy and then like those flappy fat pieces at the end. I 126 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:40,480 kind of just leave those be because that's where the flavor lives and resides. If someone just 127 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:46,640 like completely burns the bacon, yeah, I'll still eat it. But I mean, it's not as good as like well 128 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:52,080 prepared bacon. How do you prepare your bacon? You have, I mean, obviously you have a skillet. 129 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:59,200 So did you start in the skillet? No. No. Are you an oven bacon guy? No. Microwave bacon guy? 130 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:04,160 Microwave this bacon. Yeah, see, that's the thing is like some people, the way they cook their bacon, 131 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:08,320 you have to like, you have to like treat it, you know, like almost like if they have pets in the 132 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:14,960 home. I don't know why I'm eating this microwave bacon because it's sacrilegious. No, it's, it is, 133 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:22,000 yeah, it is sacrilegious. I've microwaved this bacon because I didn't want to fuck the bacon up. 134 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:27,760 I knew that if I cooked it in a skillet, I would rush it because I was like running short on time. 135 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:33,360 I was like, I'm going to burn the fuck out of this bacon. So I microwaved it. Very good. 136 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:39,680 For time sake, because I made the pancakes 100% from scratch. Had you told me that beforehand, 137 00:13:39,680 --> 00:13:46,800 I would have just dirt it in the garbage. I'm a you, you know, I like that you had a mouthful 138 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:52,640 of bacon when I did that. I'm kind of one of those guys where like, like skillet, flat top, 139 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:57,520 you know, that sort of thing. I love that sort of bacon. I'll tolerate it in the oven if you're 140 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:01,840 going to put like the foil down and like put down your little strips of bacon or whatnot, but 141 00:14:02,560 --> 00:14:07,920 microwaved is the worst. You just wouldn't cancer into something that already includes cancer. 142 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:15,440 It's like, I'm trying to get out of here fast. It's okay. All right. Tonight or? I mean, let's see what 143 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:22,640 time you know. Well, thank you for the pancake. It was delicious. Did I do? Do I detect a hint of 144 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:28,480 cinnamon in that pancake? Yeah, I got a few secret spices in there all microwaved. 145 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:36,720 No, it's the secret. I'm going to divulge any secrets. Let's save it for the Patreon where 146 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:41,040 you can demonstrate it. Give it away. I'm going to give this one for free for anybody who's making 147 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:50,240 their pancakes. Free game, free game. It's easy. Free game alert. No, pumpkin pie spice or apple pie 148 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:56,640 spice. Okay. So like the ginger, the nutmeg, the cinnamon tastes like fall. Just give that a little 149 00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:01,920 sprinkle in into your pancake mix. Even if you're doing like a mix, like a dry mix that you bought, 150 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:07,920 like a crusty's like pancake mix, just sprinkle that in there and it takes it's just a little bit 151 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:13,840 over the top. Drop in knowledge. You can make your box pancakes and or waffles tasted that much 152 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:18,960 better with just a sprinkle of spice. Yeah. And there's red orange peel on this. 153 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:24,800 God damn. That's really, really good. Thank you so much. It was tasty. I went through this phase 154 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:31,120 a couple of years ago where I was making, well, I was like doing everything vegan, but like for 155 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:35,360 family, like on weekends, I was making these vegan pancakes and I had found this recipe. 156 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:42,080 I don't even know if I can still find it right now, but it was like the best vegan pancake recipe ever. 157 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:48,560 And we probably went through about 500 of those pancakes. Damn. Because they were just really, 158 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:53,120 really good. My kids would ask for them and like, it was just kind of one of those things where we 159 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:58,880 just like went through it for a hot minute. So I love pancakes. I love all kinds of pancakes. 160 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:05,520 Blueberry is one of those things where it's like you can't when you get a good, fat blueberry pancake. 161 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,760 It's just real good. Some wild blueberries in there. Those big juicy ones. 162 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:18,800 Yeah. Speaking of vegan pancakes, I've definitely flipped at least between one and 10,000 vegan 163 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:23,360 pancakes. I would say so. Yeah. That's one of those things where there's going to be somebody 164 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:30,960 ordering pancakes at Spiral for sure. It just doesn't end. Well, you've got a great hockey 165 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:38,800 sweater on. I'm looking at a Boston Bruins throwback here, Winter Classic, Yellow and Black 166 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:48,000 hockey sweater. And so we are both kind of on the periphery of hockey. We're fans, 167 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:55,440 mostly by proximity of other people that are probably fans. One of my best friends is a huge 168 00:16:55,440 --> 00:17:03,760 pens fan. His son has played throughout high school and college and I've been able to kind of see 169 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:09,760 him and his growth and be able to kind of vicariously live through that. Just really exciting 170 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:14,480 to watch a young man start off as like, you know, a really, really young man. And then 171 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:21,280 to be at the university level now is just something quite cool to see. So hockey, when did you get 172 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:26,720 into hockey? You know, like I said, we're kind of both novice or like on surface level hockey, 173 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:32,000 but like when was kind of your first, why wouldn't hockey kind of burst its way into your life? I mean, 174 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:38,720 honestly, in the 90s, growing up as a kid in the 90s, Wayne Gretzky was huge, but I lived in Illinois, 175 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:45,120 which you could actually go play ice hockey on the ponds when they froze over. And a bunch of my 176 00:17:45,120 --> 00:17:51,440 friends play Pee Wee hockey and all that. I never got to play on one of those teams. I hope I'm not 177 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:58,320 very well coordinated. But I did play a lot of roller hockey with friends like pick up games and 178 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:05,840 stuff and did that a lot like middle school time before I moved to Texas. And then as far as like 179 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:13,360 interest in hockey kind of took hold of me like early 20s. I was like super involved in like 180 00:18:13,360 --> 00:18:20,400 watched every stars game, watched every Bruins game. Those were like the two teams I kept up with 181 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:28,160 hard. And so yeah, I was like super into it probably from like 2009 to about 2013, 2014. And 182 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:34,640 then I just kind of got busy and didn't have access to like watching hockey as often. So kind of fell 183 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,720 off after that. It's an interesting sport. It's one of those things where like as a kid, 184 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:44,800 it's it's easier to see like basketball and be like, I could do that. I can throw a ball inside 185 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:50,080 of a hoop and I have access to that that sort of equipment. But like, especially as like a 186 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:54,080 like a person of color, like seeing a lot of hockey stuff is like one of those things where you 187 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:59,360 think like I couldn't afford the stick, let alone every other piece of equipment that came with 188 00:18:59,360 --> 00:19:06,320 hockey. But I think the the turning point for a lot of people our age, it was the Mighty Ducks. 189 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:12,400 Oh, yeah. And so even if you were not into hockey at all, but you were our age and you saw that 190 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:17,920 first first, you know, Mighty Ducks movie, you probably fell in love with it. And then just 191 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:24,320 like how cool did did we we got to see something that like went from like a Disney concept to like 192 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:31,360 a real life NHL team? Yeah, but fuck the duck always always. They're one of the worst, you know, 193 00:19:31,360 --> 00:19:36,720 they're the the sharks are worse than the ducks like fuck the sharks and then fuck the ducks and 194 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:43,680 then fuck the avalanche. So yeah, that's kind of I was not super into hockey. Like I said, 195 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:51,120 growing up, I think we did a lot of moving around. Parents, you know, weren't super into that sort 196 00:19:51,120 --> 00:20:00,880 of thing. But the Mighty Ducks was a big huge deal. And then after that, moving to Fort Worth 197 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:09,440 in 1998 was my freshman year in high school. That was just like right in the middle of like 198 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:14,720 Madonna fever. And so so you know how there's times in your life where like, 199 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,680 you look back and you're like, no matter how well it was going on, that that was kind of a cool 200 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:29,040 moment. Yeah. And I I really hated moving here to the area. Like I just my life was super set up. 201 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:34,640 And like I had gone to like this really small middle school, like we were living in a small 202 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:39,360 town in Central Texas, and I had gone to a really cool middle school with a like core group of friends 203 00:20:39,360 --> 00:20:45,440 and like kind of had my life planned out like was best friends with high school coaches son who 204 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:49,680 was a quarterback. And like it was just one of those things where like life was great. We had a 205 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:55,280 great house with my mom and dad had like bought a couple of acres of land and we had like this 206 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:59,920 really cool house that they had like basically like handpicked all the designs for everything. 207 00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:05,040 Like it was like just one of the most amazing times in my life. But I didn't want to move here. 208 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:12,000 I was so sad, mad, angry at the world. And one of the times that I recall being super happy 209 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:20,640 was watching the Stars Play. And it just was like a new community of people that, you know, 210 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:28,560 cared about sport and just that time in particular in this area. When we moved here, we basically 211 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:35,920 sold basically everything that we had owned and moved into a town home on seminary. That's actually 212 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:42,080 seminary housing. And we didn't have much. I mean, we didn't, we, there were like for that first few 213 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:47,760 years that we were here, the pleasures of like the jumbo jack being 99 cents just saved our 214 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:53,840 asses a lot of time. And you know, and so we weren't, my dad was going to school full time. He was 215 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:59,840 a minister full time and it was also working at the seminary as a grounds person at that time. 216 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:03,200 And then my mom was also working at the seminary at that time. So it was like one of those things 217 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:07,120 where like it was just our life. It was our bubble. Like my dad went to school there, worked there. 218 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:11,280 All of our friends were there. We lived on campus. It was like you couldn't get away from it, but 219 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,240 we didn't have cable or anything like that. And so it was one of those things, like you said, it's 220 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:22,240 harder to get access to a hockey game than it is to do. Like they're playing playoff games on ABC 221 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:28,080 just about every night. So can watch it on HBO or Hulu or wherever now. Back then it was difficult. 222 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:33,120 You had to have, you know, I think it was Fox Sports Southwest or Fox Sports Net or, you know, 223 00:22:33,120 --> 00:22:37,680 even some, you know, sometimes ESPN had the games and if you didn't have cable at that time, you, 224 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:44,320 so what wound up happening is that there was these huge watch parties going on in the community 225 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:52,080 rooms of the seminary. And so you had all these like young men that were living by themselves, 226 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:58,640 kind of like studying the word of God and then meeting up in these small community centers and 227 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:05,360 popping a bunch of popcorn. And I mean, studying the word of Madonna. Yeah, dude. And so, yeah, 228 00:23:05,360 --> 00:23:13,760 just getting into like where kind of nostalgia hockey that 1998, 1999 Dallas Stars team was a 229 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:19,040 magical team to watch. It was the first time that my mom and dad really got into hockey and that kind 230 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:25,440 of brought me along. And so if you're hearing drums in the background right now, we were recording 231 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:32,960 our podcast live at EMP rehearsal studios. And so you may hear frozen soul or trauma ray or 232 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,720 one of the other illustrious groups that are practicing around us right now. So 233 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:43,920 pay never mind to that. Anyways, might be hell yeah, playing. So at that time, like I said, 234 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,680 we would go to these community centers and watch these hockey games. And it would just be like a 235 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:51,840 group of 20 people that didn't know each other that came from literally around the world. Like 236 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:58,560 one of our best friends, Ziyu, Ziyu Guakukuyu was from Nigeria, a feminist family. And again, 237 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:03,360 literally they had nothing. They brought like, I think a tape player and like a suitcase worth of 238 00:24:03,360 --> 00:24:09,600 clothing and just like all of these stories just come together and just watch this hockey game. 239 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:15,200 And so just to shout out some of the names that like I was just looking back at that team, some 240 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:22,400 of the names that kind of stood out to me, obviously Mike Madonna, Yuri Lytton, he was 241 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:30,400 you know, a great hockey player, Joe Neuendike, you had Craig Ludwig, the coach was Ken Hitchcock, 242 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:37,040 the goalie was Ed Belfort, you had Darren Hatcher on the team, Brett Holt was on the team. And 243 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:45,040 they beat the Buffalo Savers to win the Stanley Cup in a crazy overtime game. I don't know, 244 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:49,520 do you remember this or? I was living in Texas. So I was like, 245 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:55,280 I kept up with the St. Louis Blues and the Chicago Blackhawks. And that was about it. 246 00:24:55,280 --> 00:25:03,280 So they were, it was game six, and they were playing the Savers, and they had gone to a third 247 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:10,400 overtime. It was literally like two o'clock in the morning. And so you can imagine all of us just 248 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:17,200 being dog dead tired. And the game ended in one of the most controversial goals of all time, 249 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:23,760 because Brett Holt's skate was in the crease when he scored. And so, you know, at that time, 250 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:27,600 it was one of those things where like they had called it a goal and then they had reviewed it, 251 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:30,880 and they had talked to some of the players on the other team, and they're like, what can we do? 252 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:36,000 There's nothing we could do. So, you know, if you're a Starrs fan, obviously, it was a good goal. 253 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:41,920 If you're a Savers fan, you know, that that game and that series is referred to as no goal. 254 00:25:43,120 --> 00:25:49,760 So screw you, Buffalo Savers. Brett Holt brought home the championship for us. And that was one 255 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:54,160 of the times that I had around that same time before then, actually, before we'd moved to 256 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,840 Fort Worth, and I'd gotten into the Dallas Stars. One of the things that we were doing in Central 257 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:05,440 Texas was seeing a lot of minor league hockey. And so if you're here because of the violence, 258 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:11,920 and you also enjoy hockey, you got to get into minor league hockey. Oh, the Brahmas from here. 259 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:16,960 Exactly. So I was living in Central Texas at the time. So the team that I was supporting, 260 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:20,320 and we went to a lot of games because, again, you know, cheap entertainment, 261 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:25,280 Central Texas Stampede played the Brahmas a lot. But one of the fun things to do is, 262 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:30,160 because I'm from El Paso, originally, I was born in El Paso, was to watch the El Paso buzzards come 263 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:36,640 to town. And, man, it was cool because it was like your hometown coming to see you where you were at. 264 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:42,800 And, you know, obviously, just like crazy fights all the time in minor league hockey. And just, 265 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,840 you know, that's part of it. It's one of those things where like I was watching 266 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:50,560 a piece on the Broad Street bullies, and they had said that they're enforcer 267 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:56,160 the Dave Schultz, the hammer. They said that he really didn't fight until he got into the minor 268 00:26:56,160 --> 00:27:00,800 leagues. And he was like, actually, a prolific scorer for most of his youth. And if it's the fact 269 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:05,440 that he got into the minor leagues, then they that's where everything went right or wrong. 270 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:11,840 Exactly. So if you're into violence, but you, you know, you, you know, you can't afford a Dallas 271 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:16,960 Stars ticket, you know, look around your area, find your minor league hockey games. They're not 272 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:21,360 going to be as expensive as pro games. They're going to be just as entertaining. Sometimes, 273 00:27:21,360 --> 00:27:26,880 even more so. Yeah. I mean, there's less of, you know, the TV interruptions. There's a lot of 274 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,880 giveaways there. They try to build a really good community when it comes to minor league games. And 275 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:37,360 and so yeah, just shout out to El Paso Buzzards, Austin Icebat, Central Texas Stampede, Fort Worth 276 00:27:37,360 --> 00:27:43,040 Brahmas. When I was in, I would say fourth through eighth grade, that's the that's the hockey I was 277 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:51,200 watching. Yeah. And my uncle Bob was a truck driver. And he had stopped by to visit us one time on 278 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:56,400 his route and El Paso Buzzards were in town. And so we're like, Hey, we're going to go to the hockey 279 00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:01,360 game. And you know, our hometown is coming to town. And he definitely got kicked out. 280 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:08,160 Uncle Bob's. Uncle Bob got kicked out. He fold it. So one of the things that they had on the, 281 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:15,120 on every seat that they had was like a calendar that had like a schedule of events. And it was 282 00:28:15,120 --> 00:28:20,400 like every game for the season. And it was like 11 by 17 poster size on card stock. It was one of 283 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:26,160 those like really nice ones like you could like a show flyer almost. And so he folded it up into 284 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:31,120 like this really amazing paper airplane. And definitely it made it all the way down to the 285 00:28:31,120 --> 00:28:36,560 ice. They had to stop play for Uncle Bob's airplane. He got escorted out. And my dad was kind of pissed 286 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:41,200 because I think it was maybe like first quarter between first and second period. It's not quarter 287 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:47,280 period. Sorry, you can see our fan up here. But he got and my dad was like, No, we're not leaving. 288 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:53,280 He can stand outside and wait for us. And so Uncle Bob's outside chain smoking cigarettes while they 289 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:57,440 all pass of buzzards in the central Texas stampede or beat the shit out of each other on the inside. 290 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:02,160 But you know, that's that's the type of guy Uncle Bob is he's hilarious. And sometimes it takes 291 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:06,080 it a step too far. And we still love him and care for him. And he's awesome. And so shout out 292 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:11,920 Uncle Bob, shout out minor league hockey. Love that stuff. So you have anything you want to bring 293 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:17,360 up hockey wise? I feel like I'm talking now. Now you are all good way too much. Yeah, my wife's. 294 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:24,800 You know, it's funny. We're on episode four. All of my friends, all of my acquaintances, 295 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:30,160 everyone have been telling me, Oh, that it's great. You guys sound great. Great job. You guys are 296 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:35,840 doing great. Not one person has said anything like, you know, you should do or you know, this is 297 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:40,080 kind of. So she listened to the first episode and she goes, Okay, are you ready? 298 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:44,960 And I was like, am I ready for what? And she's like, are you ready for my notes? And I was like, 299 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:51,920 no, I was like, no, please don't tell me what you think of my podcast one episode in like, 300 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,680 I'm not telling Heather that it's live yet. Oh, that's a joke. She knows it's live. 301 00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:00,080 So she's the one person in my life where she was like, I have notes and I'm like, 302 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,520 I'm going to get in my head then if you like immediately tell me like, 303 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:08,640 so yeah, one of the things that I've been accused of in my life, I'm working on it. 304 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:14,000 I'm hopefully this podcast will help me be better at it, but it is to shut the fuck up and let 305 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:20,800 other people talk. So, you know, I also get accused of that too. So this will be good for both of us. 306 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:26,240 Nice. I mean, really just as far as like, minor league hockey goes, Brahmas or what I, 307 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:35,200 you know, kind of grew up watching. And again, the violence like going from like a Brahmas game to 308 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:40,560 a stars game, there's guaranteed to be at least three fights at a minor league hockey game. 309 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:46,080 Where if you're going to an HL game, you might get one maybe if they're really pissed off. And 310 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:50,800 also if it's playoffs or Stanley Cup, you're getting, you know, more on edge, which we should 311 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:56,240 probably talk about because by the time this goes live, we will be in the Stanley Cup finals. 312 00:30:56,240 --> 00:31:01,760 That's correct. So the reason we're talking hockey is because again, the Dallas stars are 313 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:06,960 in the playoffs right now. They are playing the Edmonton Oilers. The series is tied two to two 314 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:12,800 at the moment. We're looking pretty strong. And I'm right there with you. Positive energy, 315 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:18,560 all good things, positive push. Let's go stars. Go stars. One of my favorite things Dallas stars 316 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:24,800 relate is when they do the Star Spangled Banner and everybody in the crowd yells stars. I did that 317 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:30,560 at my son's track meet because I forgot where I was doing the Star Spangled Banner and I yelled 318 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:34,960 stars and everyone turned around and looked at me because there's only one in the stands who did it. 319 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,240 Whoops. They're like, is Ronnie Paul? 320 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:46,880 But yeah, I forget. That's another nostalgia thing. Dallas stars, Pantera. That's, you know, you 321 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,640 and they still play Pantera. And sometimes they play power trips. 322 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:53,600 Sometimes you're lucky you catch a power trip song. 323 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:59,840 Yeah. Did you do you currently so you're currently like he said, you're you're watching a little 324 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:05,280 bit of hockey throughout the playoffs? Yeah, like I keep up like I'll look like even during the 325 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:09,680 regular season, like once a week, I'll look, hey, where are we at? Like, where are we standing? If 326 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:15,680 if I have a night off or time to sit down and access to a game because it has gotten easier 327 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:20,560 over the years, I'll sit down and watch a game. But like right now, it's playoff hockey. It's 328 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:27,760 most exciting time for hockey. So I'm trying to watch that. There's there are TVs at my job. So 329 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:32,640 we've had a hockey or basketball on every night. Yeah, that's been awesome. 330 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:37,280 Another thing going on right now in DFW sports is as a matter of fact, 331 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:41,200 you need to check the score on that. But the Mavericks are in the Western Conference finals 332 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,640 playing the Minnesota Timberwolves. I'm pretty sure they're going to close it out tonight. Right 333 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:51,040 before we came in here, they were up by like 10 or 15. It is a minute 47 and a third. It's 95 to 334 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:57,600 69. Yes. So the Dallas Mavericks will be in the finals next episode. So that's going to be a great 335 00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:04,480 thing to see. Same for us. We just got a TV at center. I bought the TV and put it in center. 336 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:10,560 Like I've been making power moves at center just on my own behalf. I bought this TV and then I also 337 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:15,360 brought my PS5 up there. I need to come hang out with you up there. Just come up there at center. 338 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:22,560 You know, we'll we'll chill and play some Fortnite and I've got UFC five and Madden 24 and MBK 24 339 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:27,520 and all that stuff up there. But so yeah, I've been I've been trying to like I'm up there and I play 340 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:31,520 the PlayStation war because I'm up there because like at home, I just never touched it. And then 341 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:35,200 I was like, okay, so I'll take it up to work because there are little pockets here. They're 342 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:40,480 like if it rains Magnolia just shut down. If it's someone or a ring 343 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:46,720 any day, we'll get a you know, get around or two in on each other up there. And so one of the things 344 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:52,400 that we've been doing is we've also been putting like classic sports stuff on there. And so the 345 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:58,720 other night, whenever Luca was playing, I'm sorry, the other night, whenever the Mavericks were 346 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:03,600 playing, I thought they were going to close it out and go to the finals. But I put on some vintage 347 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:08,800 Dirk Nowitzki stuff whenever they won the championship. And so we're we put his his game on 348 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:14,880 how does Jersey featured over there. But we have been putting on just like any of that cool stuff. 349 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:22,400 But one of the cool things that if you are maybe a younger person, and you didn't know about hockey 350 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:29,280 is that throughout like the I think it was like the 70s, pretty sure, the late 60s and into the 351 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:35,440 70s, maybe even into the 80s, there was this like kind of cool thing internationally that was going 352 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:41,200 on with hockey. And it was basically the Soviets versus the world. So just like every movie from 353 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:47,280 the 70s days. But what's really cool is that they would have these like super series weekends where 354 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:53,120 they like the Soviets would come and play like six professional hockey teams in like the course of 355 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:59,600 a couple of weekends. And so there's some really cool vintage YouTube stuff out there. If you ever 356 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:05,840 want to see, you know, just the way that Soviet hockey used to be played. It was a really kind 357 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:10,960 of a graceful thing. They did a lot of like passing and holding of the puck and waiting for you to 358 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:14,640 make a mistake. And then whenever you were out of position or your goalie was out of position, 359 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:21,120 they're just ram it down there. And so they they kind of played their game their way. And so one 360 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:28,080 of the cooler things is that in 1976, they played the Philadelphia Flyers. And brought street bullies. 361 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:34,080 Yeah, brought street bullies. And so I'm a huge Philadelphia sports nut. My wife is from that 362 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:41,200 area. Since I was a nomad kid, I was more I grew up idolizing players and not teams. I was big, 363 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:46,720 you know, Jordan kid wanted to be like Mike, I still do still, you know, every time he releases 364 00:35:46,720 --> 00:35:52,880 issue, I'm still trying to be like Mike. But growing up, you know, I didn't have a home team 365 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:58,240 per se. I lived in Alaska, I lived in Indiana, I lived in Texas, I've lived in Pacers fan. 366 00:35:58,240 --> 00:36:03,040 Yeah, I mean, you know, it's crazy. Bird's from Indiana. Right. Reggie Miller was a great player 367 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:11,200 and my dad met Chuck Person, I think, one time at a pizza place. It was really cool. But anyway, 368 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:17,120 when my wife and I got together, one of the things that her family is passionate about is 369 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:24,880 Philadelphia sports. And so I was adopted into their family and got a home team. So now all of my 370 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:29,600 home teams are Philadelphia home teams. And it feels great. I'm loving it. I love that the Eagles 371 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:34,400 won a Super Bowl a couple of years ago. Yeah, because the Cowboys doing not a damn thing. 372 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:39,600 As long as Jerry Jones is involved, the Dallas Cowboys will still never do a damn thing. So 373 00:36:40,240 --> 00:36:46,720 anyway, that's my put. Yeah. So you've got I'm a big Eagles nut, big Phillies nut. We go to any 374 00:36:46,720 --> 00:36:51,680 time the Phillies come to town, we go watch them play and we also go see them play in Philly 375 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:57,760 pretty much every summer because we go up there at least once a year. And so with that comes the 376 00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:03,760 Flyers. And so there's a swath of players that came through the Flyers in the 70s and they were 377 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:10,640 known as the Broad Street bullies. The Spectrum used to be on Broad Street in Philadelphia. And so 378 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:14,400 there's a lot of great YouTube footage out there. You can just type in Broad Street bullies, 379 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:19,680 highlights. But one of my favorite moments of the Broad Street bullies highlights is the fact 380 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:27,120 that they did play that Soviet team in the Super Series in 1976. And are you familiar with this at 381 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:32,560 all? A little bit. Preferably. Yeah. So what's really cool is they had this enforcer's name Dave 382 00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:38,880 the Hammer Schultz. This dude is just like huge, built like a tank, basically gave the Broad 383 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:44,880 Street bullies their identity. They kind of shifted. They were a great hockey team in the late 60s 384 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:49,360 and early 70s, but they're just kind of smaller and they got pushed around a lot and they were 385 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:54,720 really sick and tired of that. And so they had drafted some just humongous, just Brawlaka guys 386 00:37:54,720 --> 00:38:01,200 that were ready to go and they really switched up their identity and they came to play. They came 387 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:07,440 to fight. And so the Soviets came and they're ready to play Philadelphia and right off rip, 388 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:14,000 Philly just does not. They're just like they're ready to they're one of their players. Super 389 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:21,120 duper hard. He goes down and their coach wanted like an elbow penalty and actually pulled the 390 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:26,960 entire Soviet team off the ice like within minutes of the game starting, pull this team off the ice 391 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:31,840 and tells the referee, if you don't give them an elbowing penalty, I'm we're taking my boys and 392 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:37,360 we're going home. And the referee, thank God, was not intimidated. He said, if you don't put 393 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:41,520 your boys on the ice, I'm going to give you a delay a game penalty. And so they went back to the 394 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:46,880 locker room and they basically were like, we're not coming out. Money talk. So somebody came and 395 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:51,040 said, you know, you want your money for this whole super series. It's not going to happen unless you 396 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:56,960 get back on the ice. So they had to come back on the ice. And this is in Philadelphia as well. So 397 00:38:56,960 --> 00:39:01,760 that you they're hearing it from all the fans, you know, all the Philadelphia fans, whether you 398 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:07,120 love them or hate them, they let the Soviets know what was up and so did so did Philadelphia. 399 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:11,200 Philadelphia wind up wound up winning that game. I think it was like four to two. It was really 400 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:19,280 super like decisively a great game. So much so that Rob Zombie actually wanted to make a movie 401 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:25,680 about it. That's the knowledge I have of it is that he was a big hockey fan. And I think he's 402 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:31,360 from Philly. And yeah, wanted to make a movie out of it and it never happened. I mean, 403 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:36,880 which is crazy because you think like, I mean, what a great story. We hate the Soviets, you know, 404 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:42,880 still to this day. I mean, so you would you would get that be the Rocky Four of hockey movies. 405 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:47,360 Exactly. And it would, you know, we haven't had a good hockey movie in quite some time. We had 406 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:53,440 Miracle, which was like not good, but it was like it told that story and it was necessary and Disney 407 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:58,080 was involved. So it was like a big blockbuster project. I mean, I cried at the end of it. So 408 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:05,840 so yeah, definitely. Yeah. So Miracles was a great movie. The intro to this podcast includes 409 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:12,560 some hockey lore. So if you're not familiar with our intro, go back into the beginning of the 410 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:18,160 episode and listen to it, but it's from the movie Billy Madison. It should be Gilmore. Oh my God. 411 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:26,720 Phil, I need you to go back and edit this part and make me not look so stupid. Yeah, it's from 412 00:40:26,720 --> 00:40:33,040 Happy Gilmore. Sorry. Happy Gilmore. God. Yeah, it's Happy Gilmore. You got shooting a Gavin in 413 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:37,120 there. And so happy. The thing is, he's a golfer, but he never really wanted to be a golfer. His 414 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:42,480 ultimate dream is to be a hockey player. He just couldn't skate. And so yeah, so you have that that 415 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:49,600 tie in there, the intro there. We did look over this top 10 list of NBA, NBC sports like best 416 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:56,480 violent moments. And so the three, I'll throw the three that kind of popped out to me. Number one, 417 00:40:56,480 --> 00:41:03,200 the Philly Flyers are like in three or four of the top 10 list. So obviously the Flyers are 418 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:09,680 notorious for that. But the 2012 game when Philly was playing Washington Capitals and the entire 419 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:16,720 team basically went at it. Emory the goalie, like you could see the umpires referees, they were 420 00:41:16,720 --> 00:41:20,880 they were pleading with him to stop. And he was like not going to stop until he got the other 421 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:26,000 goalie down and even the goalies fight. Oh yeah, it's classic when the goalies get into it. It's 422 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:31,840 classic. And so I'm glad you said that because the next one on my list is Patrick Wall. I mean, 423 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:38,800 that dude was the epitome of like nineties hockey swag. I mean, like if there ever was like just a 424 00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:44,080 G of G's whenever it came to like the nineties, like you said, we all know Wayne Gretzky. We all 425 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:48,160 know Mario Lemieux. We all know some of these great names. But when it comes to like swag and 426 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:55,200 like, I mean, Patrick Wall, his fight with Osgood from the Red Wings, man, he was just like going 427 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:59,360 at it. There's a couple of them with Patrick Wall in there where he's basically. But the reason I 428 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:04,800 pointed it out is because we just talked about Max Holloway calling a shot and saying, I want to see 429 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:08,960 you right here. That's what he did with Osgood. He gave him the Max Holloway. He said, Max Holloway, 430 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:14,560 he said, right here in the middle and knocked out Osgood. And then the last one is the one the Bruins 431 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:18,960 fought the fans. That's that's what I want to talk about. That's again, why I wore the sweater 432 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:23,760 that I'm wearing. Yeah, that's classic. There are two different instances of the Bruins going into 433 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:29,360 the stands to fight the fans like the opposing team fans. And that's fucking awesome. Also, 434 00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:36,880 after spending a lot of time in Boston, like in the mid 2000s, I just kind of how Boston rolls. 435 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:41,600 Like I got in multiple fistfights in the streets of Boston just for like walking. 436 00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:44,800 For sure. Like so, yeah, I mean, just brawl on in the stands. 437 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:49,120 Stereotypes or stereotypes for a reason sometimes, you know what I mean? And there's a lot to be said 438 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:55,120 for for Boston and fucking mass holes. Yeah. I mean, Joe Rogan's from there, Bill Burrs from there. 439 00:42:55,120 --> 00:43:00,160 Like you can it's you can sell. There's an attitude of people that are coming from there. So 440 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:04,640 but yeah, so the Bruins just going into the stands and just fighting with fans. And I think it was 441 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:09,600 in New York, the clip that we saw. And you know, there was people even like fighting with that. 442 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:14,320 They were even fighting with the cops. Yeah, another fight like Bruins swinging on cops, 443 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:19,920 swinging on fans like I think that was what 79. Yeah. And then there was another one. I forget 444 00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:26,720 what year it was. It was probably later late 80s, early 90s. And again, I think it was Toronto 445 00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:31,600 swinging on fans and cops cops were getting in between the Bruins and the fans. 446 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:37,680 So I was looking at Wikipedia about hockey just to get get a little bit more knowledge. And I 447 00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:44,080 thought that this was kind of cool that men's ice hockey is classified as quote a full contact 448 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:49,520 combat sport. There's actually a link that you can click on for full contact combat sport that 449 00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:55,520 leads you to the definition. That's basically any combat sport that allows attempts to physically 450 00:43:55,520 --> 00:44:02,160 incapacitate opponents. And so just juxtapose that to like, let's say basketball. I mean, like 451 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:08,640 if the, you know, we've seen fights in basketball, but like if it was allowed for someone like 452 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:15,440 Shaquille O'Neal to try to physically incapacitate another. Reach. I mean, yeah. I mean, I played 453 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:20,720 basketball growing like that was my sport of choice. That's what I played. And I played it very 454 00:44:20,720 --> 00:44:26,240 physically mostly because I was just like an angry young dude. But I got thrown out of multiple 455 00:44:26,240 --> 00:44:31,440 games for like laying people out. So yeah, it would have been awesome to like, hey, 456 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,800 give them two minutes, whoever hits the ground first, we're stopping it. 457 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:39,760 Right. Exactly. So speaking of two minutes, so another one that got sent our way by a friend 458 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:46,080 was J Beagle versus Aaron Asham. Did you catch that at all? I sent it to your way. 459 00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:52,800 Yeah, I did watch it. Yeah. So that one was very cool to me because I mean, what a G way to knock 460 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:57,120 somebody out. And basically like what I thought was cool is like he hit him and knocked him out 461 00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:01,760 and had the wherewithal to like guide him to the floor gently as to not knock out his front teeth 462 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:08,960 as well. Or like, you know, cost-brain skull like very, I mean, I know they're holding on to each 463 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:13,360 other's sweaters for stability. Sure. But also like if you get knocked out, like you don't want 464 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:19,920 somebody's blood on your hands because you just drop them face first. Yeah. So so Aaron Asham 465 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:24,400 got the best of J Beagle and he gave him the little night night symbol on the way to the penalty 466 00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:28,400 box is one of those ones where he just knew like I'm on my way to the penalty box. He gave him the 467 00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:32,320 he gave him like the cross. No, no, thank you. And then the night night symbol and he was in the 468 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:37,280 he's in the penalty box. And so J Beagle down for a hot minute, there's blood pouring out of his jaw. 469 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:43,760 And then he gets up and you can just see you you visibly see his face is contorted, distorted, 470 00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:49,440 and his jaw is not where it was whenever the fight started. And he mouths, I'm all right. 471 00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:56,560 And he's not all right. And very quickly, the commentator says he says he's all right, 472 00:45:56,560 --> 00:46:01,840 but he is not all right. And what wound up happening is Aaron Asham served that five minute 473 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:10,560 major and J Beagle didn't come back to play hockey for 31 games. So this this game is is violent. 474 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:16,720 It's beautiful. It's brutal. I mean, imagine like the most violent fight you could see and then throw 475 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:23,280 like blades skates and an ice into that. And so one of the ones that's one of the more 476 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:28,720 harder ones to talk about one of the more harder ones to watch. And more of more recently is 477 00:46:28,720 --> 00:46:35,040 this Adam Johnson incident that happened. And we're going to talk about it just kind of quickly, 478 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:40,640 because it is pretty graphic and pretty hard to talk about. So if you've got a weak stomach, 479 00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:43,920 or if you just don't want to hear about this, if you know about the incident, skip forward, 480 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:49,520 maybe like two or three minutes. But it is one of the most one of the things that I wanted to 481 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:53,280 talk about in particular when it comes to violence, especially with this podcast, because 482 00:46:53,280 --> 00:47:00,160 when we were younger, we had to seek out that violence online. There was like you would not 483 00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:06,080 just type in yahoo.com and then be inundated with with with violence. The news was kind of the 484 00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:10,720 closest thing that you would get to that. But when we were younger, there was no avenue for 485 00:47:10,720 --> 00:47:16,560 us to just open up and explore explore page and have violence shoved in your face. We didn't have 486 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:22,160 Twitter and Instagram like where, you know, you might have a warning, hey, this is graphic, right? 487 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:27,120 Right. Click it and there it is. But what's crazy is I did see this Adam Johnson thing on 488 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:33,040 Instagram without any warning. And it was probably one of the most heartbreaking things I've ever 489 00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:38,240 seen happen on ice. If you haven't seen it, like I said, we're only going to talk about it for the 490 00:47:38,240 --> 00:47:45,120 next minute or so. But Adam Johnson was a young minor league hockey player. He was he played for 491 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:50,000 the penguins. Penguins. Yeah. And then he was playing in a European league. Yeah. And he was 492 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:58,400 over in London playing. And so what happened was there was a his an opponent player came crashing 493 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:08,000 into him and threw his leg up and sliced his throat with his with with his skate. And so like 494 00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:15,120 I said, just opening up Instagram one day, I was not looking for this. And it really was probably 495 00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:19,280 one of the harder things that I watched. And I really didn't know what I was watching. And I had 496 00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:24,240 gotten too far into it for me to like kind of not know what was going on, because I was like, 497 00:48:24,240 --> 00:48:29,840 well, how is this even on Instagram? And so I forced myself to watch it and to kind of get a 498 00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:35,600 deeper story into that. And so there was kind of some speculation on like, was that intentional? 499 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:41,120 Was that not intentional? We're not here to cast judgment on that guy. He's obviously been arrested 500 00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:46,640 for his actions, whatever happens to him is for him. But I mean, just one of the most horrific 501 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:53,440 things that I've ever seen, he immediately dropped down to his to his knees, to his his face and just 502 00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:58,720 the amount of blood of probably just pulling out of him was just just tragic. He couldn't even make 503 00:48:58,720 --> 00:49:02,960 it back to the bench. He got up and tried to skate back to the bench and collapsed. And so 504 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:08,800 we just want to send condolences to his family, to anybody that had to witness that it was a 505 00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:15,200 tragic thing. But that's a that's kind of the the age we're living in where even if you have the most 506 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:21,440 purest of intentions on Instagram or TikTok or a Twitter of just like kind of like wishing someone 507 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:26,000 a happy day and you happen to click the wrong thing, you might you might be exposed to something, 508 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:31,920 you know, it's right there in your face. So yeah, it was a hard thing to see rest in peace to him. 509 00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:38,320 And that's one of the tragedies that we've actually witnessed. I mean, within the last year, 510 00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:44,640 I mean, just right there in your face. And so hockey is one of those sports that you really, 511 00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:50,560 you know, have to respect. I mean, everybody that plays hockey. I mean, I, you know, I tried inline 512 00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:57,120 hockey for a bit and it's like not only a skating card, but also just like coordination and and 513 00:49:57,120 --> 00:50:02,560 all that. So if we missed out on any of your favorite violent hockey moments, we'd love to 514 00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:09,120 hear from you. Give us a phone call 682-294-0101. Leave us a message. We'd love to hear from you. 515 00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:14,480 Tell us about your favorite hockey moments, violent or otherwise. We just love to talk hockey with 516 00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:19,760 you. If you want to point us in the direction of a good hockey film or documentary, I'm super into 517 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:24,560 that. The one that I've got on my list is HBO did a documentary on Broad Street Bullies a few 518 00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:30,480 years ago. I've got that on my list. And so if you want to talk hockey, hit us up on our phone line 519 00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:36,960 682-294-0101. Anything else hockey wise, hockey related, you want to bring up? I mean, 520 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:43,040 we briefly talk about movies, but if we're going to talk hockey movies, violence, 521 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:50,960 and goon was one of the better ones of the last 10 or so years. I know they did a sequel. I think 522 00:50:50,960 --> 00:51:01,280 I ever saw that. But again, that is a solid movie fictional, but it is written by fans who love hockey. 523 00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:06,400 You can tell that everyone involved was very passionate about hockey. And it's a cool story. 524 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:11,280 Sean Williams Scott is actually not terrible in it. And yeah, it's got lots of violence. 525 00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:16,640 He was one of those actors that kind of got pegged for like, if he's in it, it's going to be a 526 00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:24,160 just a dumb movie. So yeah, I agree with you. Goon is a great movie. All of the Mighty Ducks movies 527 00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:29,280 are great movies. Miracles a great movie. Cutting Edge. I don't know if you're familiar with that. 528 00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:33,200 I think I ever saw Cutting Edge. Cutting Edge is a romantic comedy where a hockey player 529 00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:37,440 falls in love with a figure skater. Yes, figure skater. I have not seen it, but I've seen the 530 00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:43,680 cover. I can see the cover. Mom and I have watched that many a time. So I was a kid that like, 531 00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:47,360 you know, watched a lot of romantic comedies. I was the only child. So like my mom was watching 532 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:49,840 them. And I'm like, all right, I'll watch Sleeper's in Seattle for the two years. 533 00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:54,000 That's how I saw Sleeper's in Seattle. That's how I saw Dirty Dancing. Watched a lot of Grease. 534 00:51:55,200 --> 00:52:00,480 Yeah. No, same same story. Only child. Mom watched a lot of movies that dad didn't want to watch. 535 00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:06,560 I watched him too. We love going to Blockbuster and getting those 49 cent deals. Those family 536 00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:13,440 video was ours. Oh, okay. Two movies, seven nights, $1. I love that. So Mom and Pop, video rental 537 00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:18,160 stores, Blockbuster, those were a thing back when we were kids. And you know, if you're younger than 538 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:23,280 us, we feel sorry for you because the experience of walking into one of those places and just 539 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:31,360 smelling that wet carpet smell and just begging your mom to let you get a video game as well as 540 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:37,280 renting a movie. Just need that Genesis game. I need that super booger man on Super Nintendo. 541 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:43,280 And then like stocking the returns because like you're waiting for someone that just waiting by 542 00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:49,360 the box waiting on the returns just for that next day release to come in. And then you would even 543 00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:53,040 get to the point where you're like, can you call them and see if they're done with that so that 544 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:58,240 they can oh, it's late? Like call them? What do you think we've been doing? Yeah, I worked at two 545 00:52:58,240 --> 00:53:04,640 different video rental stores. I got lots of fun stories. One was in Denton and it had not been 546 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:11,040 updated since 1983. We should just have the movies episode. Yeah, I love talking movies. 547 00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:16,800 All right. So thank you hockey for all of the lovely memories and nostalgia. I legit was about to 548 00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:23,200 cry talking talking about the Dallas Stars of 1998, 1999. I mean, like, again, sports is such 549 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:29,440 a silly thing. It's a romantic thing. It is definitely like, you know, from the Romans like 550 00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:36,640 lions and feasts, fighting and sport and that sort of thing is such a cool thing. And so to be able 551 00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:40,720 to be involved in a community that was able to celebrate a championship like the Dallas Stars 552 00:53:40,720 --> 00:53:47,600 in 1998, 1999 was just a beautiful thing. So hats off to hockey fans and fighters and players 553 00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:54,560 worldwide. We love everything that you're doing. The Dallas Stars will be in the Stanley Cup finals 554 00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:59,920 in the next couple of weeks. The Mavericks are going to be in the NBA finals in the next couple 555 00:53:59,920 --> 00:54:06,160 of weeks. So it is a wonderful time to be a Dallas sports fan. You know, just check us out if you're 556 00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:14,080 from around the DFW area. The Mavericks have a loaded squad. Luca Donchich and Kyrie Irving are 557 00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:20,320 just balling out of their minds right now. So yeah, it's 111.85. We got about seven minutes to go. 558 00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:26,240 Yeah, this is in the bag. Anthony Edwards, maybe next year, not this year, buddy. So before we 559 00:54:26,240 --> 00:54:34,880 take off this weekend here in three days, UFC 302 will be going on. And the headliner for that card 560 00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:41,200 is Islam Makachev versus Dustin Diamond, Poirier. The co-headliner is going to be Sean Strickland 561 00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:48,160 versus Paulo Costa. I don't know if any of those names mean anything to you. I know Dustin Poirier. 562 00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:54,160 Dustin Poirier. That's a household name if you're kind of into that whole thing. So Islam Makachev 563 00:54:54,160 --> 00:55:04,880 is Habib Nurmagomedov's protege heir to his throne. He's a Dagestani wrestler and he's aiming to take 564 00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:09,840 Dustin Poirier down and basically just strangle him. Whereas Poirier, he comes from Lafayette, 565 00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:14,320 Louisiana, and he wants to knock his lights out. So it's going to be a fun fight. The co-man event 566 00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:19,760 I mentioned is Sean Strickland versus Paulo Costa. Sean Strickland had the belt at middle 567 00:55:19,760 --> 00:55:26,560 weight for about a couple months. He got that belt from Israel at Desania and then probably 568 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:32,240 lost that belt. So right now, he's trying to kind of find his way back up the ranks and he's fighting 569 00:55:32,240 --> 00:55:38,480 Paulo Costa. Now, Paulo Costa is from Brazil. He's the eraser. What's fun about Paulo Costa is 570 00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:44,640 he looks like he's on steroids and many people accuse him of being on steroids. And so he's 571 00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:51,280 just leaning into it. He carries this huge jug that's filled with pink stuff and he's labeled it 572 00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:57,280 Paulo's secret juice. And so he is really, really leaned into the fact that all these people think 573 00:55:57,280 --> 00:56:01,840 that he's on steroids. So he's like, you're going to think that I'm steroids? Fine. And so that's 574 00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:06,640 kind of the storyline is Sean Strickland's like, you got that secret juice. I don't know. Also, 575 00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:12,080 Sean Strickland is kind of an interesting character. He is very much a, I would say, 576 00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:20,240 he's a conservative. He's very conservative. And so he's an outspoken conservative. He's kind of 577 00:56:20,240 --> 00:56:27,200 up shrumps asshole a little bit. But he is one of those guys that when we talked about Dana White 578 00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:30,800 letting you know, someone say anything, he's going to say anything. And so today, the press 579 00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:35,440 conference was very funny. You had Sean Strickland and Paulo Costa kind of going back and forth. 580 00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:40,640 Paulo's English is getting a lot better. And so he's getting a lot quicker with his comebacks and 581 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:45,920 his trash talking. And so beforehand, it was a little bit harder for you to understand. Sean was 582 00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:51,520 a little caught off guard with that. The face offs were just great. If I just showed the face off 583 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:56,640 of Vizal Makachev and Dustin Poirier to Parker right before we started this podcast. And those 584 00:56:56,640 --> 00:57:03,760 guys look like they were either going to fight or make sweet love to one another. So looking forward 585 00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:13,840 to the V third to last fight of the night will be Kevin Holland versus Michael Olus J. Chuk. 586 00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:16,960 I think that's how you say it. I don't care how you say his name because Kevin Holland is going 587 00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:21,280 to win that fight because Kevin Holland is from Fort Worth, Texas. Fuck you. And so Fort Worth, 588 00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:29,040 Texas represent Kevin Holland, the trailblazer. Find him on Insta. He's a fun follow. He's a fun 589 00:57:29,040 --> 00:57:36,000 guy to watch. If you have five seconds, look him up on YouTube and just he's literally on his back 590 00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:41,040 telling the guy he's fighting how good he is at fighting. He's like, damn, you are really good. 591 00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:46,960 You just hit me really hard. He's a hilarious fighter. He's always bringing a show. He's always 592 00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:52,080 looking to knock somebody out. And again, he's from Fort Worth. So when we had our Dream Casting 593 00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:56,560 portion of the first podcast, he's a name that I shouted out that I wanted on the podcast. So 594 00:57:56,560 --> 00:58:02,560 let's cheer for him. Let's have him get a win. So that way he's continuing on his hot streak of 595 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:07,360 being a popular fighter. And let's get him on Breakfast of Champions so he can tell us what 596 00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:12,480 he eats for breakfast. Those are all the fights I really want to talk about. There's some more. 597 00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:17,520 If something interesting pops off, we'll talk about it. Mickey Gall's fighting. He's always a 598 00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:24,160 fun fight to watch. Alex Morono is a very technical fighter and he's a fun one to watch as well. So 599 00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:30,000 looking forward to this UFC fight, USA 302, early prelim cards will be on ESPN Plus and 600 00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:35,200 UFC Fight Pass. The preliminaries are going to be on ESPN 2 and on ESPN Plus. And you got to 601 00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:40,240 spend that cheddar to watch the main card. It is a pay-per-view because these are world class, 602 00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:47,840 world champion athletes. So that wraps up the preview for UFC 302. I see you looking at something 603 00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:53,360 over there. I'm looking, I looked up Kevin Holland because I was curious. Yeah. 604 00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:59,760 He's a fun guy, man. He's super into shoes. Apparently he's a size 13 and has been into 605 00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:07,360 center before. So, Kev, if this makes your way, hit me up at the shop. I got you, center. TX.com. 606 00:59:07,360 --> 00:59:13,040 That's me, my boy Jason. We run the shop in Fort Worth. So I hear your size 13. If you need something, 607 00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:19,840 holler at your boy, Renee over at center. Good luck on your fight. Thank you for the pancakes and 608 00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:26,240 the bacon once again. Sorry about the bacon. Oh no, it's okay. That provided entertainment. 609 00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:31,440 You know, like I said, had I known, I probably wouldn't have indulged, but I didn't know. So, 610 00:59:31,440 --> 00:59:37,040 I had it. It was fine. I didn't die. I'll take my cancer later. So, thank you again for the 611 00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:41,840 pancakes. Thank you again for the hockey talk. We appreciate anybody and everybody that's 612 00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:48,160 listening to our podcast up until this point.
