Chapter 1: What are the hosts' views on attending NFL games?

1.482 - 4.146 Laurence Holmes

I mean, I don't like going to NFL games.

0

5.568 - 8.592 Marshall Harris

Unless you have a robe on, right? Yeah.

0

9.233 - 17.224 Laurence Holmes

Yeah. I went to, that's right. That's exactly right.

0

17.244 - 21.631 Leila Rahimi

So only robed football games for Danny Parkins. No other games.

0

21.851 - 29.67 Unknown

Of a certain magnitude. Did he forget that he went? No, he said it had to be a game that big for him to go. I got him there, didn't I?

29.73 - 33.796 Matt Spiegel

It just felt like you were giving him information that he didn't have.

34.156 - 43.931 Mark Grote

That was amazing. Those moments when you can catch him in a logical fallacy, and he's built his life on not being caught in logical fallacies.

44.352 - 48.759 Marshall Harris

Oh, it's a good moment. Danny gotcha, we'll call that. I gotcha, Danny. Congrats, Gert.

48.779 - 50.802 Unknown

Gertie had that man dancing in circles.

Chapter 2: What memorable moments have the hosts experienced with Danny Parkins?

94.57 - 111.514 Mark Grote

It's been replaced. Pib Zero. It's all Zero now. That's the rage. I took one out. I had a Pib Zero that I took out of the fridge and it's gone. Disappeared. You never did find it, did you? You saw me, Marshall. Saw me in my moment of loss. Looking desperately for my pib?

0

111.754 - 121.845 Marshall Harris

Everything right now is zero and with protein. Doesn't matter what it is. Drink, it'd be water. Would you like a little bit of protein in that water? Because that's what the kids love. They love hearing about protein.

0

122.305 - 123.746 Unknown

Protein is good for you, to be fair.

0

123.827 - 124.187 Marshall Harris

It is.

0

124.207 - 127.67 Unknown

I mix my protein powder, and this is going to disgust a lot of people, but I don't care.

Chapter 3: What insights do the hosts share about the QB parties?

128.071 - 132.695 Unknown

I mix my protein powder with straight water and just shake it up and go. That's all I do.

0

132.896 - 136.96 Mark Grote

It doesn't disgust me. Okay, good. A lot of other things about you that disgust me.

0

136.98 - 139.202 Unknown

That's fair, actually. We'll talk later about it.

0

139.368 - 154.832 Leila Rahimi

Thank you to Modest Booz Ellis. Thanks to Danny Parkins. Thanks to Modest for letting us know where he likes to hang out. That was fun as well. Thanks to Ray Diaz, Tyler Buterbaugh, Brandon Fryer, Jacob Stutz, Max Curtis, and of course, Connor O'Donnell.

0

156.614 - 158.457 Mark Grote

Where does Modest like to hang out?

159.145 - 160.867 Unknown

The Oakville in West Lube.

160.887 - 162.329 Leila Rahimi

Don't go bugging Modest, though.

162.489 - 166.234 Unknown

But he gave us a time frame. That's why I was like, oh, Modest, slow down, big fella. I know.

166.354 - 168.297 Leila Rahimi

Bless his youthful innocence.

Chapter 4: How do the hosts feel about the current state of basketball and tanking?

573.863 - 575.305 Mark Grote

Both those guys were toast by then.

0

575.446 - 599.797 Matt Spiegel

Look, I have been watching a lot more baseball videos and becoming annoyed and very much feeling like it off my lawn because where the algorithm thinks I'm at right now is that I just want to see guys pumping for velo. And I'm just in there going, that's too bad about your arm in two years. Like, I'm seeing guys who are hitting 99 on the gun, but they're not happy.

0

599.857 - 614.03 Matt Spiegel

They're hitting 99-4, but they want to see the triple digits. So they just keep pumping fastballs. I'm like, okay, all right, good for you. Congratulations on that ball that is not anywhere close to the plate, but you saw those triple digits.

0

614.09 - 629.167 Leila Rahimi

But to that end, though, how stressed out were we all when Palencia was injured when he was throwing last year? You know, when you saw him injured on the mound, knowing his velocity had come up. You know, that's why I get a little concerned about the longevity of a year-to-year scenario.

0

629.268 - 651.358 Mark Grote

I was in the back row at Wrigley behind Zach and Coom watching Palencia fall apart that day. Yeah. He got his ass kicked and then was like clearly upset and looked over at the dugout and he's like, I'm still out here? Okay, well now I'm really going to throw hard. And that's when he hurt himself. So it's interesting, man. It's like, it's all a mindset with these dudes. Yeah.

651.338 - 660.431 Mark Grote

Yeah, I don't need to see that, Lawrence, that the algorithm might give me. I just want the basics. I can just see dudes grabbing bats off the bat rack today. That makes me happy.

660.531 - 677.155 Matt Spiegel

Most of the stuff that I'm seeing. Yeah, I went on a whole street. Yeah, I went on a whole street about this. I think the way that we have done spring training in local television has been wrong for a long time, and we keep doing it. What specifically?

677.176 - 678.898 Leila Rahimi

You don't like the low-angle baseball?

679.958 - 686.512 Matt Spiegel

I think that it's ridiculous to send people for pitchers and catchers. I think it's ridiculous.
