Hello and welcome to another draft.
We have to start with an egg, of course.
First, this draft is non-alcoholic beverages.
I'm excited to see how everyone goes with this direction.
You could go so many ways, so many drinks.
Where did this idea come from?
I'm a big drink guy.
I really like drinks and we're getting into the summer season.
And part of the summer season for me is enjoying a nice cold beverage.
Not alcoholic for me.
Are you really a big drink guy?
Because I would guess that you've had less than one percent of all drinks.
I bet you've had way more drinks than you've had.
We're going to line up the drinks.
Well, now, hold on, hold on, because Gavin is an alcoholic drink guy, which opens him up to a whole
of the world of drinks.
It does. It's a great alcoholic drink guy.
Well, I mean, you drink alcohol on occasion.
You have consumed alcohol.
And Andrew said earlier he's I don't drink alcohol.
Not like an alcohol guy.
No, no, no. An alcoholic guy.
You're open to alcohol is what he's saying.
So there's a wider range.
Nobody's saying you're an alcoholic.
We're saying you're just not restricted in what you drink in a way.
The guy that Andrew is.
Yeah, I just heard alcoholic drink guy and I was like, oh, maybe I'll go from.
Well, I got news for you buddy if you're afraid you have a problem you have a problem I
Hate to break see this is the blind side. Oh, this is your intervention
Very much I haven't had a drink in four months
Really?
You guys are talking just before we start you guys are talking about how your drinks guys
How many drinks you've had or whatever this is the hardest draft list I have ever had to put together I am NOT a drinks guy at all
Really? You strike me as a drinks guy? I guess non- am not a drinks guy at all.
You strike me as a drinks guy.
I guess non-alcoholic drinks guy.
Yeah, I'm not a drinks guy.
Are you an alcohol, really?
Like even alcohol, you strike me as a drinks guy.
Oh, I'll drink.
Oh, I drink booze.
Like that's fine.
But like, as far as like just getting a drink
for like pleasure is so like not-
You have like pleasure drink equipment
Yeah Right and so that's one thing on my list and
Then trying to round out the next is that is like I'm going like uh do I like this drink?
It's so bad my I feel like my draft list is gonna be rough. I'm excited to see it
Completely understand where Eric is coming from when I sat down
and because I think I thought like, oh, cool, this would be fun for me because I
don't drink alcohol anymore.
And I'm having soda summer, you know, and so I've been trying.
I bought I bought so many sodas over to Gavin's house last weekend.
Make thanks to you, by the way, she's tearing through those.
Oh, good, good. That's what that's what they're there for.
I want you guys to experience soda summer, learn about new flavors, find new soda summers this weekend. That's what it're there for. I want you guys to experience soda summer, learn about new flavors, find new favorite drinks.
Is there soda summer this weekend?
That's what it's all about.
We can have soda summer this weekend.
However, when I sat down to write my list,
I realized I don't really give a shit about any of it.
I really, it's whatever, it's fine.
Every, this is the problem,
probably maybe specific to me as an alcoholic, but every, every single drink that I thought of
was an alcoholic drink.
All of my favorite drinks on earth are alcohol,
to this day, seven years sober, I'm still like,
well, you start going through gins
and you're like, stop, stop.
So I'm similarly struggled like Eric, I think.
Yeah, the same thing where it was just like,
I like tequila soda.
Well, that's okay.
Well, fuck, margarita, goddamn.
Like it's just like a lot of that.
Did you also do the thing where you're like,
best non-alcoholic drinks and they're like,
here's the best non-alcoholic cocktail that you could have.
Oh yeah, it was mostly just cocktails
that they wanted me to make.
And then I just went, well, this I was going to do a bit.
I was going to do a bit where I was going to go like
Virgin painkiller, Virgin Dakari, Virgin Margarita.
But then I went, no, I'm going to try.
I'm going to give it a shot and see how it goes.
You guys are like, I got to try to put something together.
Meanwhile, I am
Nervously sweating looking at my draft board trying to determine what Mountain Dew is the third best
We've had completely different experience, so everyone is saying that they're not really a drinks guy. I only drink water
Yeah, I'm a yes
Yeah, well that's gonna be better. You better. Hope you're high in the draft board
And I got news for you buddy waters on my list The first time I had a coke was in the gherplichug.
Oh, man. OK, well, we have an egg lined up.
But how many times do we randomize?
Is it 49?
Because it's Jeff's birthday.
Eric said it, not me.
Forty nine it is.
Most drinks have water.
That's H2O.
20 is 20.
How about two?
How about two?
But hold on.
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H. H is the eighth letter.
So how many times will eight go into 22 times? Well, let's say eight.
12. I want you to know I'm on Nick's side here.
Thank you. H minus 20 is 12. OK.
How many times are we randomizing? Two. I think we're doing 12.
12. H minus 20 is 12.
I'm going I'm voting to.
It's got to be one to two. OK, hang on. Wait, so we have two votes for two and two votes for 12.
Eric replaced all the names with the numbers one to 10 and we'll figure out how.
Wait, wait, wait. No, because we have to take a vote. We have to take a vote. So there's two votes for two and two votes for 12.
And now Eric has all the power.
Ah, we love the way this swung.
And that's why we're doing it 12 times.
We can edit the video.
I did not expect that to go my way.
Hell yeah.
I'll make this smaller. It's never on us. Hang on
What good is this gonna do because now when we randomize this is always in the same spot?
Okay, you can just throw a black bar. Oh God use a VPN
First first of 12
Gavin Jeff Eric Andrew Nick
Why have we done this for every fucking draft? What are we doing?
We're iterating.
Gavin, Jeff, Andrew, Nick, Eric.
What the fuck?
Gavin, what the fuck?
Get out of here, Gavin.
Andrew, Nick, Jeff, Eric.
Number 4!
Nick, Jeff, Gavin, Eric, Andrew. 5! Gavin Andrew Nick Jeff Eric number four Nick Jeff Gavin Eric Andrew five oh

And now number twelve. Come on. Gavin, Andrew, Nick, Jeff. No. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. God damn, I'm going to lose two of my picks in the first one.
Oh, man.
Oh, fellas, we randomized 12 times, and now it's time for the best
non-alcoholic drink draft to begin.
Gavin, first pick here.
How about for the prize of this? Winner gets whatever their first pick is, whatever their first first pick here. How about for the prize of this, winner gets whatever their first pick is.
Whatever their first round pick is.
Interesting.
Love it.
On the house, on the company.
On the company.
Okay.
I would also like to say I'm willing to sell my slot in this draft for 25 bucks.
Jeff? I don't want to pay $25.
Wait, wait, wait, hold on.
What number is he in the slot?
He's number one. Yeah.
So, you know, Apple pay cash and it's all yours.
Don't do it, Jeff. It's your birthday.
Do you have Venmo?
Jeff, don't do it.
Got Venmo? Jess, don't do it! Got Venmo?
No!
No, no, no.
Wow! My first pick!
It's a very nice liquid.
You're fucked.
You have nothing for two through four.
This is a very nice liquid
that I'd never tried until I met
a Jeffrey Ramsey.
And that liquid is coffee.
Oh, fuck.
Yep.
Oh, I should have.
Eat shit, Eric!
We suck.
Well, we're putting on plucks.
I could have got coffee.
God.
I really wanted coffee.
I thought you were going to go water.
I thought it'd be so funny if I picked coffee.
Oh, man. Fuck you.
That really threw me.
Have it every morning?
Yeah.
Thanks to Eric, I'm trying it in the afternoons as well.
Oh, how's that been going for you?
Pretty good.
Not keeping me up?
Yeah, right?
It's a nice little pick-me-up.
It's not doing too much.
You can also just add a little bit of water.
Like make it a little weaker, have a little water, half coffee, you're good.
And if I make my morning coffee late enough, I just have the dregs of that in the afternoon.
Oh, that sounds awful.
It's not great.
Yum.
Andrew, your first pick.
I'm going to go with the number one soda in the world.
I'm going Coca-Cola is classic.
Love it as a summer drink.
Love it as a slurpee.
You go sorts away with Coke.
Number one brand leader. I think hands down best drink. Love it as a slurpee. You go sorts of ways with Coke.
Number one brand leader. I think hands down best drink.
OK, pick Nick.
All right. So this is as close you can get to drip coffee
and still consider it to be that it's an Americano,
which is basically like a shot of espresso, but filled with water
to make up the difference.
So it's feeling that's coffee
After the hash brown thing yeah
Yeah, I'm cubed you're shredded. No, I'm shredded. You're cubed hold on
It doesn't matter. I was gonna say that I feel like it's coffee, but I don't know anything about coffee
So would diet coke be acceptable as Eric's pick if Anders picked coke
Yeah, it's not the same thing so yeah, I totally different product
Products entirely different different flavor different product entirely completely different but close but different
Get a kill you in a totally different way. Yeah, exactly
so Americano well
Gavin already knew what my pick was.
Diet Coke.
I feel like what?
What do you mean?
We got coffee.
We got coffee, Coke, coffee and Coke.
What an excellent first round.
Well, listen, you're not a beverages guy.
There's a wild difference.
I love Coca-Cola.
I spit in the face of Diet Coke.
I don't like it. Oh, yeah.
I'm with you. Get it out.
Like, I don't like Diet Coke at all.
And I would never drink a Coke to save my
life. I'd much rather have a Diet Coke.
Oh, yeah. I think I think Diet Coke sucks.
I don't like it at all.
Did you do that despite Jeff?
What are you doing?
I'm trying to make the best the strongest list in the world
He's here to win the Super Bowl. He doesn't necessarily have to like the pick. He's trying to build a winning team
Here's yeah, so it's my turn. Yeah, and here's where here's where I was gonna go with it
And now I'm not I was gonna try to get coffee iced coffee cold brew and iced turbo
Because I consider them all four to be different things.
But since that's blown,
and we're already doing the Americano stuff,
I'm gonna leave coffee alone.
Okay.
I'm gonna go with my current favorite soda in the world,
which is Diet Starry.
Wow, dude.
That's your favorite one right now?
That's delicious. I like Starry right now.
I like the little lemon lime dudes.
I like how the lemon guy wears a lime costume
and the lime guy wears a lemon costume.
That's fun.
It's fucked with my head a little bit.
And I love the story behind it.
If you don't know about Starry and, you know,
they just showed up one day advertising in NBA games.
A brand came out of nowhere.
What happened is Pepsi have is Pepsi Pepsi Co
They had Sierra missed and then there was some fucking influencer lady named Sierra missed and they tried to sue her
Said let have her stop using the name, but she had the name first
So what ended up happening was they fucked themselves and lost access to their own name and so they have
Sorry, oh that oh, that's what happened. That's why starry exists. It's just Sierra missed with a different name.
I had no idea. Wow.
I had no idea about that either.
I wondered if it was a different recipe.
And I feel like you answered that.
It is the exact same. It sounds like.
Yeah, I think it's I think it's the exact same.
Wherever you're going, you better believe American Express will be right there with you.

That's the powerful backing of American Express.
Visit amex.ca slash ymx.
Benefits vary by card, terms apply.
And now I'm gonna pick something
that nobody is gonna pick.
I'm gonna put a picture of it
so I get to go back to back.
This is a weird one.
I promise you I'm not being a dickhead.
This is something that I genuinely liked.
Vimto.
What is that?
What is this?
Aw, it just ravaged my lip
Yeah, I love them toman
It's like a fruit juice. I used to drink in Kuwait all the time. They would
Damn it They would always give to us as a gift. God damn it! That's throwing me.
I've never heard of Vimto.
One time I dropped a bottle of Vimto in front of my door
at the barracks in Kuwait and I just left it
and they sent the MPs cause they thought it was a blood trail.
Oh my god!
Oh my god!
I had to explain some shit.
Vimto is a British mixed fruit soft drink containing the juice of grapes,
raspberries, and black currants. Flavored with herbs and spices. What does it taste like?
So it's here on Google. It's over 100 years old and has an indescribable flavor. Yeah.
Indescribable. It's like a syrupy dark fruit juice. I don't know how to describe it. It's
not like it's like in the same world as grape juice, but very different.
Huh? Interesting. Vimto. I like that you fucked up Gavin. That's funny.
I didn't mean I really didn't mean to. I didn't think anybody would have. I didn't think anybody would have heard of it.
To be honest. That's what I thought.
Okay. My second pick, my first pick Diet Coke. What a delicious soda.
My second pick, I drink black coffee. That is the only really form of coffee that I'll have of ice coffee,
but usually it's just black.
Except one time of year where I am a slut for a pumpkin spice latte.
I love a pumpkin spice latte. I love a pumpkin spice latte.
I fucking love it.
I love it.
And it's so good and different from regular coffee.
This is the shittiest draft we've ever done.
Why, what's wrong?
I took coffee.
That's not coffee.
No, he took Vimto.
You took coffee and then my thing's different.
It doesn't say coffee anywhere on there.
That's not coffee.
It's just pumpkin spice latte.
If I went up to Starbucks and I said, give say coffee anywhere on there That's a pumpkin spice latte if I went up to Starbucks
And I said give me a coffee and they handed me a pumpkin spice latte. It's different things bud
Here the problem Gavin is that I don't know enough about coffee to be on your side
I don't know what a latte is I have no clue it was fucking coffee beans
I think I'm on your side, but I just don't know
Jeff thoughts I think a pumpkin spice latte is not as offensive as a choice
as Americano was.
I think it's less controversial.
See, what I've done by picking coffee,
though, compared to everyone else,
is now I can't put like a cappuccino,
because I've already put coffee.
Yeah, you can put cappuccino if you want.
They're different.
They're different.
I'm sorry, Gavin.
You just said it's a different name. You said I can't put cappuccino, but you can't.ppuccino if you want. They're different. They're different. Sorry, Gavin. You just said it's a different name.
You said I can't put cappuccino, but you can't.
But I've wasted.
I could have put that instead of coffee.
I mean, you could have, but you didn't.
I mean, I guess you should have done that.
Yeah, you should have thought about that.
It just seemed weird that you picked coffee when you could just...
Yeah, weird.
I didn't think other people would also be picking coffee.
Weird.
Hmm.
Weird.
Well, we didn't.
Okay.
Yeah, we picked pumpkin spice latte.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm going to watch you making an Americano
and a pumpkin spice latte without using coffee. Let's see how that goes. Well, I'm gonna but I'm gonna watch you making an Americano and a pumpkin spice latte without using coffee
Let's see how that goes. Well, I'm gonna watch and make any drink without water asshole
That's fair that's fair
Nick
Second pick I'm so pissed at you
I was gonna say a basic bitch my way through all of October with the pumpkin spice latte
I was saving that for this, but you know what just keep rolling
I'm gonna go with a wonderful
It's a it's a variation of an Earl Grey tea spiced with nil and honey. It's called a London fog
I like to get it with a shot of espresso
Wait what you get a London fog with espresso? Yeah.
You're buzzing off to that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You just you just fucking fly it or what?
Doesn't have that much.
Yeah, it's good. my next pick an Arnold Palmer with coffee.
This bullshit.
I'm sorry.
Well, that might be refreshing actually.
Yeah.
Hey, Andrew, you have your second pick.
I mean, what's the worst that could happen when you're having a draft
going with Dr. Pepper? Oh, the water lead in new the new number two soda.
Yeah. It took over Pepsi recently.
I like it. The thing about Dr.
Pepper, which is nice, unlike coffee, there isn't really a number two.
There isn't like a close second.
It is its own flavor. Hard to duplicate.
There are other brands that try, but I feel like there is a large gap.
You like a Pib? Yeah, I think there's a large quality gap
between a Pib to Dr. Pepper.
I'm going Dr. Pepper.
You think Dr. Pepper is better than Mr. Pip?
Way better. Hmm. Completely different league Dr. Pepper. You think Dr. Pepper's better than Mr. Pibb? Way better!
Completely different league better
Interesting. So if I wanted to could I pick Mr. Pibb? You could absolutely. Okay, I'm just checking. I'm just seeing where Yeah, I think it's a totally different drink. Oh like coffee and pumpkin spice latte. Gavin your second pick
Yeah, uh other good liquids. I like liquids that are hot and I like them with essence of meat.
It's Bovril.
No!
Hot Bovril.
What a drink.
Oh, it's one of the worst drinks I've ever had.
Hands down.
I had a feeling that it would rear its ugly beefy head.
Human sandwich guy picking beef juice.
I'm not shocked.
Well, Gavin, after your gross bavarol pick, you actually get another pick in this snake draft.
So what's after bavarol?
I would have actually accepted bavarol as best breakfast foods as well.
I would have been okay with that one.
See, that's the great thing about bavarol.
Oh, my next one. See, that's the great thing about Bavro. I'll put a picture of my next one.
Okay.
Lovely. This is maybe one of...
This might have been the first fizzy drink I ever tried, which
probably put me off them for the rest of my life. It's a nice can of Lilt.
What is Lilt? What is Lilt?
Pineapple and grapefruit?
Get a bit of Lilt? Pineapple and grapefruit? Lilt?
Get a bit of Lilt down ya.
I don't like when you... you got more British when you said it.
Like it was like a lot.
So you didn't like the Lilt? Is that what you're saying?
As a kid I didn't like anything fizzy, but I think the flavor was fine.
I think I... I think I found like a stale still can of Lil pretty good. But I think
they've I think they got rid of it eventually. What a trajectory your life has been of hating
anything fizzy to becoming a Soda Stream guy. Oh wow. You're adding fizz now. Yeah, it says
right here that Lil was discontinued in the early 2000s because it
caused extreme stupidity in British boys.
Yeah, Lilt fizzy drink scrapped by Coca-Cola after 50 years.
1974 to 2023.
Man Rip Lilt.
Good run.
Had some great adverts.
Rip Lilt's so cool name.
I'm I'm with you, though, when I was a kid, I did not like fizzy drinks at all.
I didn't drink soda at all.
None of it. Just really not for me.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yep. But Andrew, you get your third pick so far.
You've Coca-Cola and Dr. Pepper.
What do you have as your third pick on the list?
Yeah, I this is completely thrown me.
I did not expect the little to be on the board in the third round.
Oh, do I want to pick?
You say that like you just like Gavin stole your lilt.
No, I just it's I I didn't.
This board is crazy compared to what I had.
I'm just processing. I'm looking at my own field.
Has any board ever gone the way you thought it would?
Never. Yeah.
The TV, the TV one.
I had a lot of pics taken in that one.
I'm going to go with.
I don't think there's necessarily a wrong answer to this,
but classic Mountain Dew flavor, Mountain Dew Code Red.
Oh, I think that's probably the best Mountain Dew.
I love a Code Red.
It's the only acceptable Mountain Dew.
I agree.
Really?
I can't drink Mountain Dew.
Yeah.
I like a Baja Blast.
I like...
Oh, Baja Blast, okay.
I like quite a few of them, but I had to go with Code Red.
It was a tough decision.
I think there's a lot of good choices for Mountain Dew.
I wish I had a fun fact about it.
I don't believe Coke killed it is my fun fact.
Unlike Lilt.
Haha.
Mountain Dew fun facts, 11 energizing facts about Mountain Dew.
Did you know that the Great Depression made Mountain Dew possible?
Hell, yeah. Code red.
So they refer to it as
they wanted to be.
They originally the dudes that made it wanted to be orange soda moguls,
but they were part of a group that began bottling orange crush in 1926.
But then the depression hit them particularly hard,
so they went bankrupt and had to pivot.
Interesting.
Huh.
Isn't Mountain Dew made to be like put with like whiskey?
Is that what it was for?
I think it was made from like fucking like hillbilly syrup, right?
Yeah.
I was gonna say, yesterday I was in my orange factory, today I'm making Dew in the fucking
mountains.
Life's terrible.
Well, eventually retired the hillbilly.
Awesome.
All right.
The hillbilly.
Can we do like a soda graveyard of little
kid the hillbilly from out there?
Like canceled fruit drinks?
I mean, so just canceled soda people
Should we create a soda cemetery? I like this idea
Add an idea. I was telling Andrew earlier today. I had an idea for a graveyard game like we play cemetery bingo and
Maybe we could maybe we should start making virtual cemeteries for stuff like this. It'll be fun.
Good idea.
Not a bad one.
Nick, you have the third pick.
Well it is the summer and there are certain drinks that stick out to us, I think, when
you're hot and you come in from like, let's say, Mowen, your lawn.
This motherfucker's about to pick
an ice coffee. No, no, definitely I want to live Andrew, I'm not picking an ice coffee
in this instance. So you come in and you pour yourself a nice glass of lemonade or you know
you're driving on the street and you see some kids at a stand and you're like you know what
I have two dollars cash here you go kids I'll take some of that. Is that a real thing?
Yeah, yeah. Absolutely. The lemonade stands? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Do they not exist in England? Oh, I don't know. I've never seen one. I would go so far as to say almost
Almost every kid in America has had a lemonade stand at one point in their life. Absolutely. I've had multiple as a kid. Me too.
We should all go out and see who can make the most money
We should just have a lemonade stand all of us together and see see how it goes
That'd be a great supplement. That'd be a bunch of fun
What a fantastic idea for a supplemental I think we should try to like push kids regulation lemonade
Yeah, that's a wire
This is my lemonade as there's always money in the lemonade stand. That's true. God I
Really want this now that would be hilarious
I've got the next pick here after Diet Coke and pumpkin spice latte. I'm gonna cool down
I don't know if you guys know this I'm from Southern, California
and pumpkin spice latte. I'm gonna cool down. I don't know if you guys know this. I'm from Southern California.
And my drink of choice at the taco shop, the horchata.
Ooh. What's a horchata?
It's probably too white for Jeff.
It's like a rice milk with like a cinnamon,
cinnamon sweet kind of flavor to it.
It is so good.
It's so fucking good.
I love a horchata, like an ice cold horchata.
When you get like a burrito,
when you're done skateboarding with your dumb ass friends
and you all split money for a burrito
and then everyone gets a horchata, it rocks.
It is such a good drink.
I love it.
I recommend it.
I recommend it.
You should find it, try it Andrew.
I think you'd like it.
It looks visually very appealing.
It looks like it's milk. It's not like milk milk. It's not like...
It's like rice milk. So it just looks sort of opaque.
But you're not a fan of this, Jeff, because it's white, I'm assuming.
Yeah, I've tried. Horsetail is not my thing.
But I understand. It's very popular around here. People love it.
It's just not for me. But Jeff people love it. Okay, just stuff for you
But Jeff you get your last two picks here after your diet story in Vimto
Let's see. What am I gonna pick? Let's go to the master list
Okay for my third pick. I'm going to pick. This is specific. I'm going to pick a root 44
diet cherry limeade from Sonic
I watched Gavin throw one one time across his yard
What?
We covered this on the show. Yeah. We covered it on F***face. We took him to get Route 44
Diet Cherry Limeade and when he got out of his car he fucking chunked it across the house and I was laughing at him
I was holding it by the lid
Got away from me
And then I just cuz I can't ah
Fuck you know what fuck it. I'm from Alabama uh
sweet tea oh
You're going forward yeah, I was probably I was I was thinking about taking grapefruit juice,
but I'm going to go with sweet tea.
I'm just going to go sweet tea.
I sweet. I thought you're you're maybe considering Big Red.
Now I forgot all about Big Red.
Big Red is a great drink once every two years.
Yeah, I I've had Big Red once in my life.
It was when I visited Austin and I got sick and I didn't know I was sick yet. And I came back from RTX and I had drank Big Red once in my life, it was when I visited Austin and I got sick and I didn't know I was sick yet.
And I came back from RTX and I had drank Big Red at lunch and I vomited the reddest, like the second, maybe the second reddest puke.
Just the Big Red everywhere.
Projectile like horror movie blood vomit.
And it kind of killed Big Red for me.
Do you think we could be the first group of five to chunk the rainbow?
You mean like simultaneously or like just, oh man.
You do Big Red, Orange Juice,
like lemonade.
What would you do with the last two?
Because it's got to be like, you want like blue and green or do you want to get like a purple in there?
Like, what are you feeling?
Purple would be great crush blue.
There's a mountain to you.
Vim to Vim to you have some Vim to Vim to be great for some right.
Beena. Yep.
Yeah. And then we just all vomit on a leprechaun or something.
So we just eat green.
What's a green drink?
Green tea chai.
Oh, Mountain Dew works.
That's kind of yeah.
Is it green or is the bottle green?
If you pour out a Mountain Dew, is it clear?
It might be clear.
There's green.
There's green Hawaiian punch.
There's green Gatorade.
When you log a logger.
So why are we vomiting on a leprechaun, Gavin?
Why not? To like a pot?
Oh, is it the part of the end of the.
Yeah, the leprechaun.
But what's going to go?
Why do I throw? I want to throw up on a leprechaun.
I think it'd be way more. Yeah.
And then the gold's not, you know, all messed up.
Overcomes in last place has to be the leprechaun.
Of the five.
Patreon vote.
Loser prize for face off season two.
How did we go from starting a lemonade stand to having one of us get thrown up on by everybody else?
It goes man.
It happened very quickly too.
What do you mean because of me? It's because of you.
You threw up some big red.
Yeah, but you you let it to be you can get leprechaun's I feel like that is blue kid
And I took it from there. It's okay. I think you're more of the cause, but I see where you come from
I brought us to puke town you parked us in leprechaun alley
Well, why don't you take us home with your fourth?
Well if you insist if we're talking about you King here's a drink that probably would make Jeff puke.
I don't know, but I assume eggnog is my number four.
Oh god!
I'd rather die.
I love eggnog.
Are you actually trying to win?
Yeah, these are my picks.
Not anymore, I don't think.
What do you mean? These are great picks.
He's gonna win a lot of people over with Diet Coke and Pumpkin Spice Latte.
That's fair.
You guys don't like eggnog?
No.
You're not noggin over here?
I'm not noggin.
I'm not a fan of the nog.
What?
And it's really the egg's fault, once again.
The egg thing really throws me.
I don't think there's any egg in eggnog, is there?
Then why is egg there. I think so
I think you can make it an eggnog. I'm pretty sure you can make it. Yeah, see what if we did an an eggnog?
I'm kind of on board now. If we get Gracie back and hire someone two people starting with N and O. Yeah
There's definitely eggs in. Yeah, there's eggs, cream's eggs cream sugar milk first ingredients six large egg yolks
No, you can just do it without that you just do it without the eggs
Why would you drink it in the summer that's insane, this is a Christmas drink you weren't in a sweater you're drinking that
Oh, it's good. Oh, that's good stuff right there, baby.
But now it's time for Nick's final pick.
I still wanna know what the nog is.
We know what the egg is.
Where does the nog come in?
Dude, this is even worse.
I'm reading Wikipedia and this is how they describe it.
This is so gross.
Egg nog, historically also known as milk punch or egg milk punch.
I see why they changed the name.
Fucking milk punch?
Fucking shoot me in the head.
There you go.
Jesus Christ.
Milk punch.
That's just crude tonight.
There we go.
We have some milk punch on there.
Well, again, another drink when you come in from the heat and you want to take a break.
Eggnog, yeah.
But yeah, definitely an eggnog.
You put it on extra eggs.
But if you want a little kick. Christmas in Hawaii.
Still of some caffeine, frappuccino.
Yeah, frappuccino.
You get yourself a nice lemonade with a sweet tea
and you make an Arnold Palmer.
And I'm going with the Arnold Palmer
because it's the best of both worlds. get the sweet you get the cooling effect and you get a little
bit of that energy from the caffeine so you've got coffee tea with coffee
lemonade tea with lemonade they're all different
different what do we put it that way Gavin but you put it that way Jeff has sweet tea it's also funnier what this is all about coffee Jeff has sweet tea Nick
has coffee and sweet hey oh no like juice is an option like there's there's so many drinks. I also
I also
Nobody picked a white monster which surprised I've probably we're not day laborers, so I just assumed no one would pick that yeah, but
It's probably what I drink more than anything else. I don't think about oh, oh God
Well next up is Andrew, his final pick.
How many... Andrew, before you give us your final pick...
Andrew, before you give us your final pick...
Yeah.
How many things are not...
Like, how many items do you have listed that you aren't gonna be picking?
Oh! Oh! let's see.
Let me pull up my list.
It I have 21 drinks and oh my God.
Yeah, I don't think I could name 21 drinks.
Nope. Well, I could coffee Americano, pumpkin spice latte, espresso.
Arnold Palmer, Shirley Temple, a bunch of old other names.
Should I run down Marilyn Monroe, Cary Grant?
You don't have to give them all.
I just wanted to know because I felt like you came in way over prepared
for against me, a guy who listed water first and then didn't pick.
I'm going to be honest.
I could I considered water, but I really didn't want to get fuck like Gavin
to have somebody come in with sparkling water and get completely undercut
It just it felt like a trap. Yeah, that's lame
Oh, man, what do I pay and so many things to choose from I?
Think I'll round out I have a soda theme so I think I'll stick with soda
I like a root beer, and I think the number one root beer is barks root beer
It's like that close out my great one I like a root beer and I think the number one root beer is Barks root beer.
It's like that close out my great one.
Barks root beer. I almost picked.
I like an IBC myself, but Barks is very good to IBC.
OK, I don't know if I've had that one.
IBC root beer.
It's good.
Is it like a known wide brand in America or is it like a.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'd be seeing it.
I think it's interesting.
You can get it anywhere in America.
Hold on a second. It comes in a bottle.
Yeah, currently unavailable on Amazon dot C.A.
I'll see if I can get this somehow.
Oh, I'm sorry, dude. Interesting.
You know what I should have picked if I really if I really wanted
Gavin's heart is dad's root beer.
I don't know if that's the thing that is just Canadian only, but everyone brings dad back into this.
They actually sell it in Austin.
That's awesome.
Really?
Okay.
Yeah.
Dad's just a root beer bottle that says dad's felt Canadian to me for some reason.
It probably is.
I used to get it at Costco.
Oh, really? I think to get it at Costco.
That's oh, really.
I think I saw it at big lots.
Yeah.
Yes. Oh, yeah.
At Costco when Costco was Price Club.
Holy shit, dude.
Yeah, I don't remember that at all.
Oh, yeah. Is anybody drinking any?
Is anybody actually drinking anything right now?
I am drinking something related to a draft that we're not going to end up
recording today.
I just realized I'm drinking a bang purple
haze energy drink, which did not get mentioned at all.
As soon as we're done here, I'm going to go make a cup of the very first pick
on this whole draft. So but nothing right now.
I was thinking about going with the number three.
See how they're different.
Yeah, they're different, Gavin.
No, totally different.
If Gavin were to put that up for a vote, Jeff,
would you have voted against the Americana?
I would have voted no to it. So it just comes down to you
Yeah, I probably would have voted no
That's too bad. Oh, sorry. Sorry now that I think about it. I mean materially. It's the same thing I'm really adding any different ingredients into it's just a preparation deal. Yeah, I don't think right and honestly hey Gavin apology accepted
Yeah, you know what?
Yeah, I think you gotta fight for yourself a little bit harder Gav I would have been in your corner now
I think about it. Yeah, Gav. I'm over it. Thanks, man
Hey, no worries. Just move past it. Yeah
We should move
Gavin go ahead. Oh my god, Coca-Cola Diet Coke
Mexican Coke
This that's a guy I read. Oh nobody picked water. That's so fucking funny to me
That's so fucking funny to me.
What is Mexican Coke? It's just like sugar coke. Yeah, they make it with sugar. With cane sugar, I think.
What is this thing I picked?
Yeah, pick a thing and then follow it with what is it?
I'm adapting to the table.
You're doing great. Yeah. You're doing great. That was definitely on my list, okay
And you consider Mexican coke to be different than coke. This is why I didn't pick I would
Oh, you didn't pick it. Well, I didn't pick it because yeah, it was on my list
But I didn't pick it because I didn't want to have this conversation about how it was different from Coca-Cola Andrews pick
No, it is different.
It is different. It's different brands and like a Doritos Coke or a.
I mean, if you want to go with cola, you could have went with a Pepsi.
Like there's all sorts of colas you could.
Yeah, it's it's night and day.
It's Americano and latte.
It's I was on your side with the coffee thing.
You would put it to vote.
Here's the thing. I will. The nice the one thing I'll say in Americano's defense, it doesn't have the word coffee in it.
Right.
Mexican Coke still has the word Coke in it.
My favorite Coke is Jeff's Kitchen Coke.
It's pretty localized, but...
Crisp Diet Coke!
I like crispy diet coke.
Yeah.
Wow, what a list.
What a solid list for everyone.
Let's run them down.
Let's run them down and we can talk about it.
Gavin, pick coffee, barf, roll.
Mexican.
That's got to be the least complimentary
set of drinks I've ever heard.
Is Lilf the only one on the list that's no longer commercially available?
It is, right? Yeah. Probably.
I think so, yeah.
Andrew picked Coca-Cola, Dr. Pepper, Mountain Dew Code Red, and Barks Root Beer.
Nick picked Americano, London Fog with Espresso, Lemonade, Arnold Palmer.
Sorry.
That's maybe the funniest list. That's maybe the funniest list.
That's maybe the funniest list on this whole thing.
Eric picked diet coke, pumpkin spice latte, horchata,
eggnog, AKA milk punch.
And Jeff, Jeff picked diet starry, Vimto,
root 44, diet cherry, limeade from Sonic, and Sweet Tea.
I'm amazed at everybody's picks.
Like the fact that Nick just cannibalized from Nick over and over
and then I did not expect Andrew to go go out of the gate for sodas.
Yep. I didn't expect you to go Vimto.
Wow. I guess. Whoa.
Nick Vimto out of nowhere. Nick's picks is like a family tree of drinks.
It really, it's crazy.
But they're all different.
Yeah, it would.
Right, an Americano is different from a London Fog
with espresso because there's tea in one of them
and the other one doesn't have tea in it,
but it's exactly the same. You got it, different and a little and then Arnold Palmer's totally different than lemonade
My last pick should have been sweet tea and Vinta
Gavin free.
It's a sweet tea with Vinto. Yeah.
I was good.
And one of the many joys of doing these is not at all expecting it to go the way
that I think it's my head.
It's a debate of like what brand, what version of barks or root beer.
Do you like the best best what version of this?
I never could have predicted that Nick would essentially pick the same drink for
I guess twice twice
Actually right there with the edge
I think Nick's on track to win this draft
If Nick wins it's on comedy value which
If you're a coffee fan if you're a coffee fan you're voted with Nick
coffee
I may have been going for comedy a little bit
Jesus Christ well guys go vote on our patreon whoever wins gets their first choice
I don't want a diet coke. Yeah, Eric is gonna either get a drink. He doesn't want
Gavin is gonna get just black coffee. I guess what would be
Be whatever coffee. I want to find yeah, and then Nick is gonna get his first and second
Definitely happy we win
Yeah, I'll take it. I have a varied list none of of my stuff is all my shit is unique and original.
Not stolen from anybody else.
Oh, what a trap.
It's the most I don't know how the pool is going to go.
I have no clue.
That was one of our best.
Insane.

Oh man. Alright, thank you for watching. Bye!

I'd draft orange juice with less pulp would be my pick if Jeff won orange juice.
They're different.

They're completely different.
They're different.
Like my pick.
