Welcome back to episode 29 of the Unpaid and Underrated Podcast, a podcast by crew for crew. Today, this episode is brought to you by None other than A technical guy, Big Nate We have Taken over the podcast We have created a mutiny And Keith and Joey are both gone Instead, in their place we have

Five crew members Including myself, four others I'll let them introduce themselves First, we have none other than Mr. I'll be up introduce themselves. First, we have none other than Mr. I'll-be-up-after-my-thing Big Jeff. Right. Infamous Big Jeff here, most hated man in the Discord.

Ready to do some drafting today. Look forward to it. Excited, excited. And after that, we have Mr. Footman himself, Big Mofo. How you doing? Got my foot spreaders on, ready to go. Toe spreaders in currently.

Yes. I'm about to pause this so we can go up and get mine. I forgot to put mine in. I'm going to be lacking in my draft. Don't lack on foot health. Yeah, don't want to lack on the foot health. I'll be doing the manual toe spreaders, getting my fingers in between there. For those that are

listening, you can just imagine that. Alright, and then after Mr. Big Foot Mofo Guy, we have none other than Big Chris. You get this Big Chris Domingo. Probably the most boring man in the world.

Great title, Great title. Love to hear that. Already asleep. Yes, already asleep. And after Big Chris, we have none other than Big Kevin, Kevin's recent new father. I'm surprised he's still awake. Thanks.

Just got the boy to bed, and now I got my spreadsheets ready to go. Yeah, let's go. Big Keith would be proud. All right, boys, let's dive right in to these great, great things that we have planned. First off today, we have the standard set of topics that we must cover or something terrible would probably happen. That first topic would be what are we drinking this evening? Don't all speak at once. Well, I grabbed something

extra special for today. This, I believe, in my research for today's draft, I believe I discovered this was the first ever can rated by the Mastinomics podcast. That sound, if you heard that, was a strawberry bubbly.

That's what we're drinking today. Whoa. The first ever rated. I think I have a spreadsheet that tracks that. I have access to one. I could fact check that, but I would lose my place in a lot of things on the internet right now, and I'm a little nervous.

Strawberry. What do you give that jeff the strawberry bubbly i've never had that it's extreme it's extremely solid it's it's a solid for for jd powers uh it beats the hell out of that cherry cough medicine bubbly that i know a lot of people are fond of but not for me cherry one's not bad friend brought that over recently it's not that bad um big aaron i see you playing with something near your nether regions. I believe that's a can. Hard to tell.

I'm just making adjustments. No, yeah. This is from a local brew in Southern California. Actually, it's in Ranch Creek among us. It's called Hamilton Family Brewery. A Youngful IPA. It's a mosaic IPA. Let's see if we can hear that crack.

Taste. Yeah, still delicious. I also got one of these sparkling ices for later on, black raspberry, because I don't do the regular spicy waters. Ah, a mild water. but later on, black raspberry, because I don't do the regular spicy waters. Ah, a mild water.

For Mr. Footman himself. All right, Big Chris, what are you drinking? As of right now, at the beginning of this, I have. So I'm pulling a Joey tonight, and I have a cooler sitting next to me. So we have some Blue Run Kentucky Whiskey, and then followed up by some highlights. I got the, uh, I got the picture that you sent,

uh, to our, our chat for this. Um, and I was like, I, I really, we're going to try to keep this nice and tight and tidy tonight.

And this man's just ready to party. I told my wife and she's like, does he know you guys aren't doing this for four hours, right? And I was like, I sure hope not. I got to loosen up a little bit so I can talk a little bit. Maybe Chris will be drafting Joe Rogan guests by round four. It's just on the Zoom podcast. I will take Tom Segura. He's just, he's going to be on the Zoom call by himself.

We'll leave our profile pictures up. He'll just think he's really winning. All right, Big Kevin, what are you drinking? I've got a Polar Tart Cherry Limeade. That's a lot of words. It is. It's pretty good.

It's a solid 3.5. It is. Um, but it's pretty good. I, I give, it's a solid 3.5. Good rating. It's good rating. Um, Oh shoot. I almost fell over in my chair. Um, tonight I am drinking none other than,

uh, water. I just have water in my, my water bottle. I, I went to, I went to get a sparkling water and I realized I had none of my fridge and my oven. I just couldn't turn it on in time to get it ready for the podcast.

But I had the, I don't know how to pronounce it, the like watermelon LaCroix flavor. It has some like fancy name and then it's like parenthesis watermelon for like the regular folk. I had one of those, but then it was just, it was lukewarm, which is neither piping hot nor cold, which is just not where you want your sparkling water. So I just went with pouring old water tonight. Sorry to let all the faithful listeners down. All right, our next important segment, what we're wearing today. I would like to start off with announcing that I am wearing the none other, the most coveted, all go, all show, all go, no show, whatever that name is. There's so many letters to that name, so many words on that shirt. We should put less words on shirts. But I'm wearing

that shirt, probably the most viral shirt that Masonomics has ever had. If you ask me, it's a great shirt. Love the blank easily. One of the best planks they've had to date. Um, but love the all go no show t-shirt. Jeff, what are you wearing tonight? not going to believe this but uh i did want to grab something special for tonight's massonomics draft and so i too went with the all go no show shirt because if it's anything like my fantasy football drafts this one will also be all go no show but uh i just thought it was fitting for the occasion so uh here we are that's insane synergy you Synergy, you businessman. You guys aren't going to believe this. I was thinking in honor of Election Day, I wanted to be on the right side of history,

so I also wore my all-go, no-show shirt. This is uncalled for. It's crazy. This is unprecedented. I can't believe this is happening. Chris, you're kind of sitting far back from the camera. I can't believe this is happening. Chris, I can't. You're kind of like sitting far back from the camera. I can't tell what you're wearing. What are you wearing? You'd have thought

we'd have planned this. I, too, am wearing the all-go no-show shirt. It's amazing. I just spit my water across my office. This is insanity. I swear. Big mofo guy, you better just take your shirt off.

If you're wearing the all go no show shirt, I don't even want to know. I'm just nervous right now. What are you wearing, Aaron? What's really funny is the fact that I forgot that we're going to do this podcast today, so I happened to walk out the door this morning wearing the all go no show shirt. So that's just what I'm still wearing right now. So yeah, I saw the message like, what, 20 minutes ago? like what 20 minutes ago like oh shit i gotta get ready for this so i just left it on and now i see all you guys wearing the same shirt and i you know i don't know whether i should be embarrassed or just you know happy that we all have the same mindset of you know great minds think alike i'm this makes me a little nervous for how the draft will go i feel like we won't have any unique thoughts amongst us.

It makes me slightly nervous that we'll just be all trying to pick the same thing, but it's like we're in a cult or something. Yeah. I mean, we're not called though. I just want to clearly state that for the listeners, um,

new and old to like-minded, like-minded individuals, like-minded individuals. You'd think we would feed ourselves more often. Yeah. Right. Um,minded individuals. You'd think we would feed ourselves more often. Yeah, right. All right. Well, that covers that strange occurrence.

Real quick while we're here, guys, just want to get everyone's rating for last week's episode. I thought the guest was incredible. Just what they had to say was nearly life-changing. Right before Tanner did the unpaid and underrated segment with them, I was nearly in tears. I can't believe he broke out of that part of the interview. But hey, Tanner's going to do what he's going to do. So yeah, I'm going to give the podcast a solid five Massanomics Gym iPod touches.

Jeff, what about you? Yeah, that's solid um felt much the same way i have to say um the guest was great but but really what stood out was uh the episode had had two of my favorite segments in it and we all we all know it's the podcast about nothing in the segments are really what make it um and so yeah i mean this is a slam dunk for me. It's an easy five Masonomics Gym iPod touches for me last week as well. But Kevin, how about you? What do you give this episode? You know, there was a few things that Tommy said that I wasn't sure about, but he came around and he totally redeemed himself at the end. So because of that, I'm going to have to do the five iPod touches. You know,

Tommy, he always throws you for a loop. Sometimes you just, you have no clue where he's going to end up. And then he just lands that plane, just like whatever that guy was that Tom Hanks played. All the way from 10,000 feet. Yeah.

I mean, he takes you right up to 10,000 and brings you back down. Like you weren't even in the air. It's incredible. Chris, what do you got for us? So I right up to 10,000 and brings you back down like you weren't even in the air. It's incredible. Chris, what do you got for us? So I'm going to say, man, that I was in tears just like you, driving into work. I could barely keep my car on the road. The guest had me dying.

So I'm going to say it's five iPod Touches. Solid rating. Solid rating. Big mofo. What are we thinking? I've actually been looking forward to this guest for quite a while. I've been following them on Instagram for several years now, and I've just been waiting and waiting and waiting,

and finally they got him on. So it was a great interview, really silly, great time. So yeah, I've got to go with five Masonic Gems iP go with a five mass. I can't believe it. Excellent episode. Our sister spreadsheet. Thank you. Thank you, Kevin.

If you could just, uh, me median and mode all those as well, while you're in there, uh, that would be much appreciated. All right. And that brings us to the most important part of today's episode,

the bonus episode, one might call it the special episode, the most anticipated episode, I'm sure, of all unpaid and underrated podcast history, the Masonomics episode draft. The Masonomics Episode Draft. a snake draft. A snake draft, you might say. Are you drafting snakes? I say no, we're not drafting snakes. We are drafting what we would believe would be our best Massonomics episode. This will consist of five categories. The first category would be a sponsor or slash ad read. So we'll pick what we would think if we could only have one sponsor, what that best one would be that we would need in the episode to make the episode the best episode. We will pick one guest.

This is a highly debated topic amongst this group as to how that would work, but this will be a guest future or past, um, future meaning someone that has not appeared on the podcast. If, if someone thinks that that would make a better episode to get someone that's never been on the podcast before, so be it.

They can pick that if they want to pick a tried and true guess, they can pick that. It's all up to them. You might say they could have their druthers and the last three categories, technically one category, but the last three things that we're going to pick are three of the best segments from the Massonomics, the sister podcast. So altogether, there will be five rounds for this draft. We will all make our picks. Unlike in the

discord, we will not be allowed to repeat ourselves here. Once something is picked, it is off the board. We cannot have two of the same picks. Any rulings will be done by me, also a contestant. Oh well. But that's how it'll work. Quickly, to cover how a

snake draft works for the listeners, we'll pick a draft order here in a second, and it will go from the first to the fifth person. The fifth person will take their fifth pick, and then they will also get their sixth pick sequentially after that. And it'll work back in a snake-like fashion between all of the contestants until we're through our five rounds. And with that said, we are almost ready to dive right in. But before we do that, we have to hear a word from our first sponsor. I know everyone's on the edge of their seats, but I have a question for you, dear listeners.

Are you a fan of chicken bakes? Lifting with very strong and attractive people? Partying with absolute lunatics? Well, do I have the event for you. This December in Crew Falls, South Dakota, join Tanner, Tommy on the adventure of a lifetime as they gather some of the wildest crew around for a weekend in December. You won't want to miss out on this extraordinary opportunity like our late friend Brian. May he rest in peace.

Join the Massanomics crew today at massanomics.com slash join and get signed up for the December to Remember event. And remember, when you're here, you're big. All right, boys. That's all. Pour one out for Brian. That's all, yes. Rest in peace, Brian. Cheers. We miss you, Brian. Cheers. It's not the same without him.

It's not. I mean, imagine if he could be drafting with us here today. I mean, he'd be life-changing. He'd have some great picks. He probably would. Nothing Taylor Swift related, but probably some good ones. Alright, we ready to dive right into this draft?

Yeah. Alright. Let's do it. I have a random name picker wheel here that's going to pick my first person that gets to pick their draft pick order. A lot of picks going on in that statement. But with no sort of transparency, you guys can't tell if I'm lying or not, But the random name generator gave me none other than Big Mofo for the first choice for his position in the draft picks.

Just to clarify, we can go into any of the sections, I guess, sponsor, segment, right? Yes, yeah, yeah. You can pick anything in any order. I will say, before you say anything. Right now you're just picking your draft position. Yes. So if you want to take the first pick, the third pick, the second pick, the fourth pick, or the fifth pick. So you get the power, really, at this point, to have literally all the power of the draft.

You could pick third. You get a nice middle spot to see where things line up. The first pick, maybe you have something you're really convinced will make the best episode. Or maybe the fifth pick, where you'll get to make two picks back-to-back. It's all about the first pick. Maybe you have something you're really convinced will make the best episode. Or maybe the fifth pick, where you'll get to make two picks back-to-back. It's all about the strategy here. I'm going to go with first pick. First pick. I'm taking it. I'm taking

that first pick. Alright. Bold move. Good choice. Good choice. Is it, though? See if it pans out. We'll see. I feel like it might come back to hurt you. Alright. And next up, the Magic Wheel.

Uh-oh. This might be contentious, but it picked me. I am... Rigged. Rigged. I thought about sharing my screen, but then I realized I haven't done that on this Zoom, on this Mac, and Macs just fall over when you try to share screens for the first time. So you just have to believe me.

All right. I'm going to take the third pick for tonight. I figured you'd overthink it. Yeah. I just want to see where the lay of the land is, you know, before I see what I'm up against with you guys. Just realized I have a name in here

that's not on here tonight. Well, that's awkward. Let me fix that. No, Brian is not Brian. Do you have your hands on there? No, I just... That's strange. All right, back to the wheel.

All right, next up is... Mr. Space himself, Kevin. Big Kevin. I'll take the tail end of the draft. I'll take pick five. I figured that's where you would go. You son of a bitch. Strategic man, I know you.

I just realized we have two Ohioans on right now. This is very exciting. Not good with strategy. Is that a board game? I think so. Sounds like one. Great Will Ferrell reference. Shoot, is that a Will Ferrell reference?

Keith wouldn't know. Yeah, I feel like Keith right now. What movie? We can check what he rated it really quick. Someone pull up Glaze Search for us. See what he rated the movie. I don't think my phone's gonna handle four things over.

Just lights on fire. Alright, Jeff. Do you want the second or the fourth pick? Give me number two. Number two for Jeff. Alright, and Chris? Lucky number four, I guess. pick. Give me number two. Number two for Jeff. Alright.

And Chris? Lucky number four, I guess. I guess so. So, to recap for the listeners at home that aren't looking at this disgusting spreadsheet that I'm sure Keith would be very

disappointed in. We've got no formulas or anything going on. Our order for tonight is very disappointed in. We've got no formulas or anything going on. Our order for tonight is Mr. Mofo himself, Big Jeff in the two spot, myself in the third spot,

Big Chris in the fourth spot, and Big Kevin in the fifth spot. And with that, boys, I believe it's time. We're ready to dive right in to this draft. And a more prepared man would have thought about this other than right now,

and I would have had cool draft sounds for us to play, but, uh, I think Jeff's already got it. Jeff's got it. It's queued up. I bet you can work that in afterwards. Yeah.

Put it in, in post. Yes. Do you not hear that? Nope. Can't hear a thing. I'm waiting for the music. I have no pick. I have no pick.

I have no music. There you go. Michael doesn't want to pick it up, I guess. Guess not. With the first pick in the 2023 Massanomics draft, Big Mofo is selecting. Thinking. I'm thinking.

Picks the first pick overall and not sure what he wants to go with. Bold strategy. So, we're talking about making the best Mathonomics episode ever, and no Mathonomics episode would be complete without this segment. And that is, of course,

overrated or underrated. By far, probably the longest running segment that goes going on right now. I know it started with just Tanner asking Tommy, different overrated or underrated topics. But now it's morphed into something pretty hilarious with the guests that come on. hilarious with the guests that come on. The fact that they dive so deep into their history and getting random things that they would never think that someone would ask them

just makes it probably top tier and that you can't have a Mastodon episode without overrated or underrated. Interesting pick. It's a big one off the board. It's a huge one. It means if something gets awkward, I don't know how we're going to get out of that situation in this draft.

Since overrated. Adam Jones. Yeah, I mean, I think he took them all. Yeah, I guess. My top rated segment. I don't know. There's still some good ones left on the board. First, when we have three segments to pick from,

picking a good one first round isn't a bad choice. All right, Jeff. What do we have? Yeah, so I gave this a lot of thought. Really thinking about draft strategy, really thinking about where can I find the separation, right? Which one of these groups? What's the Rob Gronkowski of this draft?

You know, that slot that can fill multiple positions. I think there's a lot of separation in the ad space, frankly. And I'm going back to what was, I believe, the fourth ever sponsor of the Mastanomics podcast as I was, again, doing some of my research and had the Massanomics draft kit. And fourth ever podcast sponsor, number four on the field, but number one in our hearts. I'm going with an ad read for the Texas Power Bar as my number one pick. Good pick. I mean, you might say that's a pick that's strong as a house.

With the best... That's maintenance-free. That's a maintenance-free. That's not going on the injury reserve. Send all kinds of world records. Man, that's a good pick.

That's a good... pick. Texas Power Bar. Cross that one off. That's the fourth sponsor? I believe the first two sponsors. Well, I don't want to give anybody ideas. Yes, I believe they were the fourth sponsor.

Fourth sponsor, man. And actually, the oldest surviving sponsor. How about that? Oh, that's true. I feel like we recently saw, not to give away a future pick, but a juggernaut fall off. No puns. But a tried and true guest fall off recently that I was very surprised of. So I'll be interested to see their participation

in the draft tonight. Any other thoughts on Jeff's pick from the peanut gallery? That's a solid pick. Absolutely. Absolutely. Well,

with the third pick, I was sitting mulling this over when I should have been focusing on other work-related tasks, and I was just pondering, if I was a person in the first round of a Masonomics episode draft, what would I want to pick first. And I was thinking about things near and dear to the, the massonomics hearts, the hearts of, uh, the sister podcasts, uh, hosts and a name came to mind, uh, a name that has appeared many times. Uh, and I would say arguably maybe one of the, well, has caused one of the best episodes in massonomics history. Easily some of my favorite episodes. I've met this man in person, a great human. But I'm going to have to go with none other than Grant Brogy as my third round pick. Grant Brogy, as my third round pick, excellent podcast guest, absolutely gets massonomics. This man practically could be on the podcast every single week and no one would notice anything different.

The founder of a excellent company. I mean, think about those things that they make that I won't mention. I don't want to give anyone ideas for sponsors, but I mean, excellent company, excellent company, excellent company, man, served in the military. I mean, he's a military man. I was watching this homie squat 405 five by fives today like it was nothing. I mean, I don't know if you can pick a better guest for the Massanomics podcast than Grant Brogy. Shout out big Grant. I got to say that first Grant Brogy episode, that might be one of my favorite episodes just because your thoughts like, oh, it's just this guy and this new company. Where, like where do they bring into the table? And I, the detail he's able to get into was impressive.

The, uh, but like showing some of the business side of it, but showing, you know, coming from like, you know, gym rat meathead kind of guy,

like the rest of us and, um, seeing what he was able to do with it and going through a tough time, you know, with everything going on. Yeah. And a real stand-up guy. I think that's a good pick, Nate.

Yep. A solid pick, man. He was on my list, so you're a bastard for that. I couldn't let him slip up. I had to have him. I mean, you want that guy on your team. I mean, Tanner and him talk like once a week, I think they've said they call each other on the phone each time.

I feel like it's essential. Like that synergy that they have will just bring together a great team and a great massonomics episode. I'm disappointed. I haven't gotten to meet him yet. Cause his, one of his warehouses is not that far from me, but he moved to the other side of the country.

Now he's escaping you. He saw that picture of you with his feet and he's like, I'm getting out of here. That's why I got one degree of separation though. I met Big Andrew and Big Andrew made him. You went with the crew pick there as well, which I know. Jeff, did you say I went with the crew answer?

You went with the crew pick as well, which I know is going to be a, you know, a huge, it's, it's going to curry a lot of favor there by going with not just anybody, but you know, hometown, one of our hometown boys here in the crew. I mean, there's a lot of crew that's been on the podcast. So I don't know. There's a lot left on the board. You might say I'm pandering. Some people would say I'm pandering. I don't think I on the board. You might say I'm pandering. Some people would say I'm pandering.

I don't think I'm pandering. I'm just picking a good team. That's all. That's all I have to say. So, all right. Thanks. Thanks, Mr. Big Grant, for all that you do.

Thanks for all that you do. Big Chris in the four spot. What do you have for us? I am. I am much like Jeff. I was torn on what to pick first. And seeing as the sponsor reads are tight, to say the least, I feel like we need one of the stronger sponsor reads in there all the time. And I mean, this is the world's strongest podcast, right?

It's true. So I'm going with the Strength Co. The follow-up. My draft is ruined. Ruined. One that they don't even have to read. Huge day for the Brogy family today huge day this is unreal i didn't i thought i could sneak that two first rounders

man it helps to be a friend of the podcast. Man. I'm crushed right now. I just blew up my draft board. Those plates might be smooth but easy to grip, but those just fell right through your face. Did they ever? Did they ever?

Dang, you got it. Just a quick aside. I mean, has anyone watched these videos Grant has and the strength he has with CT Fletcher now? I think this is wild. No one? I haven't seen him yet. I know he was out there filming it, but I haven't seen him. It's just, it blew my mind.

I was like, nah, this is just like a thing and then they're just hanging out in ct's gym hanging out in ct's backyard it's crazy i got the chance to like meet him at the end of the the classic and he is just a super good dude he gets all he gets all the jokes everything man he sat there bullshitting with me for a good 10 minutes and then i was like, I got to go bench again. I thought you meant the end of the meet after it was done.

It's just mid-attempts. I was on my way back from my attempt and we started bullshitting. Then I was like, I got to go. Call him my name. We have four seconds left on breakfast. That's fantastic. One more thing about grant we met about the arnold this past year and yeah i talked to him

a little bit on instagram before but then uh you know meeting him in person for the first time and you know he's running around like crazy running you know one of the best probably the second best booth at the arnold And, uh, you know, two minutes into meeting him, he hands me his cell phone and says, Hey, scan people's, uh, uh, the little wristbands that they get and then give them a sticker. So like I held his cell phone for a good half hour and he's just like, yep. He's crew. He's good. We trust him.

I mean, Hey, just keep talking up some weight keep talking up my draft team that's great that's great i love to hear this anything else just really draw that out uh strength goes great great pick um maybe in post we'll put in the strength go out just to to boost the the morale for your team there, Chris. Alright, Kevin. The fifth spot. The snake of the snake draft. So,

I actually have a segment that is near and dear to me. And it is one that's been... I'd say it's a relatively new segment, one of our faster growing segments. And it is, if you could have one lift to gauge someone's strength, what would it be?

And that's, it started off as just a, you know, just a Instagram Q and a from one of our crew, and it evolved into a segment. I think that kind of speaks to the crew as a whole. And I know it's a lifting podcast about nothing, but it is a lifting podcast. lifting podcast about nothing but it is a lifting podcast so it really gets some good sets and rep talk in there and um generate some great answers great discussion on the discord uh great great questions with all the other guests because every time they talk to to some of our guests i'm not

going to name names to give anyone ideas but they hear the question from tanner and he goes huh that's a really good question. And they think about it and they, they have their druthers and they come up with something often pretty unique. Um, and then with all that said too, I'm going to go back and say,

I think it's still the squat. Squat is the one lift you can gauge best gauge someone's overall strength. I respectfully disagree with you. That's a great choice, though. That is a great choice. That is a great choice. That was one I thought somebody was going to forget about, and they didn't, and now I'm pissed. I actually did forget about it. I did. It's not on my list, and pissed. I actually did forget about it. I did. It's not on my list,

and I wish I'd remember that one. That one's driven a lot of great conversations. It's a sneaky pick for sure. Kevin, you mentioned something amidst your explanation there. Were you the person that suggested that question? I was the originator in that Q&A. Of course you wouldn't forget. I thought that was Kevin's question.

To be uttered by Dave Tate himself. Yeah, every time someone put it out there, I just go, yeah, that was my question. Yeah. You have missing the crew.

Yeah. That's a solid pick i like that pick a lot it's i mean it's the segment that transcends podcasts if we're honest that one was not on my radar i think it actually did transcend yeah rt strength renaissance periodization like took that site that section of that podcast and made it their own YouTube video. Yeah. It has transcended Masonomics. Should we just disqualify that as a pick then? I mean, it's not even truly a Masonomics segment anymore.

Let's take it off. All right. Best gauge of strength for the fifth pick of the draft. Kevin, being in the snake position, you also get the fifth pick of the draft. Kevin, being in the snake position, you also get the sixth pick. A little back-to-back action here. What's it going to be for you tonight?

I think it kind of plays with that gauging of the strength. What better way to gain that overall strength than to use Juggernaut AI? Juggernaut AI, I appreciate the AI aspect of it, how it learns and grows with you, and you give it some inputs and it modifies your workout on the fly. It's like having one of the world's best powerlifting coaches in your pocket. And I just don't think you can beat that. I think that was a good move, hooping up that. I mean, my top three ads are off the board now. That was good.

It's getting to be a scary place out here for ads right now if i'm honest uh i i'm a huge fan of juggernaut i've been using the thing off and on since literally since it started as a beta in uh november of 2018 dang when it was just oh gee yeah when it was spreadsheets. My buddy said he was a spreadsheet guy too. Oh my God. People complain about how many sets and reps you do now. It was horrendous then. You got strong, but oh my God.

It was built for elite powerlifters and it finally got scaled back to lifetime intermediates like us. I did not realize just how important it was to answer the questions truthfully. So I was like riding, I was like riding the line the entire time. And then I'm like, you know what? I'm going to start answering these correctly.

And then it completely, it completely changed everything. If there's one thing that you shouldn't ride the line. Yeah. One thing that you should understand. Yeah, it's the one thing that's supposed to give feedback to said AI is answering these questions. Chris is like,

nah. Nah, three's the whole way down. We're good. Perfect. Juggernaut AI. Thanks. Use code Massonomics. Or Mass.

I think it's Mass. Rich get richer. Through the website, not the app. Yeah, use the website. You get something off. So do that. 10% off a like. Wow. I i mean you can't afford not to at that point pencil to paper great pick all right chris all right so fourth pick or not fourth pick um

seven that uh that one lift to judge all strength man that really threw me so that one was there and i added that today. And I was like, hopefully somebody forgets about it. But obviously, the person that put it on there is on here. So I'm going to go segment again. Or segment. And I'm going to take. Who was it?

Supporting members. Because it's all about us. So I'm going to delete that off my list. It's a great pick. I think the people were interested. I would say it's a little pandering, though, to the general audience, if you ask me.

Yeah, want a podcast for a crew by crew? Come on. Come on. It might be one of the reasons some people listen because you mentioned. It's a great, I mean, relatively new segment, too. Relatively new segment.

Yeah, you can hear it. It's growing exponentially, I've heard. Yeah. There's only three spots. But I think you nailed it. Only three spots left to get in there. My eye twitches every time they say exponential. I love it, but my eye twitches at the same time.

It's relatively exponential. It's just people saying that all the time at work. It was like, you don't know what that word means. Stop. They do. They know what that means. Alright, beer's gone. Moving on to the ice. Yep.

The non-spicy water. One might call it an ice non-spice. Sorry, trying to get a dad joke in there. All right, pick number three. This I feel so conflicted it's not even funny right now. Things that I've wanted are falling left and right. I feel like I'm lost in the desert right now.

My draft board is blown to smithereens. I was honestly convinced no one would pick anything I had, and I would just get everything I wanted, and this would be really easy. We're all wearing the same shirts. Yeah. You all think very independently. Daggone it.

Alright. For my second pick, I think I'm going to go with a sponsor. Those are drying up pretty quick. I want to make sure I get what I want here. I don't know.

This makes me so nervous. I'm going to go with a sponsor uh i'm gonna go with the one and only they're great barefoot shoes uh i'm a barefoot minimalist shoe lover myself like our uh our good foot friend mofo guyoGuy. I love, I got into the barefoot scene recently. Recent, now, just want to be clear, this is not a paid pick. However, I did win the Discord, barefoot Discord giveaway like a month ago,

as well as so did MoFo. So weird that he didn't pick it so uh um but yeah i when kevin and i were at the arnold this year uh was that this year huh um crazy how time works uh we went over to the barefoot booth uh and i to, I think it was Big Brian for a while, just about their business, just Barefoot Shoes in general. Just solid group of folk over there at the Barefoot Shoes. Love what they're doing. Love minimalist shoes.

These Bruin boots look awesome. There's a dude that's looked for boots in the Barefoot space for a while. I mean, the stuff they're making is, is insane. Like a retreadable, um, resoluble, however you say it boot, uh, that's barefoot is just like unheard of. Um, cause he had barefoot shoes. Uh, if you, I mean, also one of the few sponsors, maybe the only, well, technically the Strength Co., but for a Massonomics collab, Ersonomics, there's still some left. Most sizes are sold out, but get in there. If you're listening to this, you might be too late, but maybe you're not.

It's your chance to get some Ersonomics. So, yeah, my second pick, Barefoot Shoes for the ad read sponsor they're great earthenomics look great with the all go no show shirt really i mean if i say so myself yeah great coordination there just got my shipping notification black and red the high tops black and red is to pop. I've just really been thinking about, they keep reposting the picture of the floating shoe, and I'm really just, I cannot figure out how it works,

and I want to know. I saw it in person, but I did not see them set it up, and I'm still astonished by it. It's just pure magic. I'm glad to know that it works in real life, and it's not just CGI. Maybe they'll have it at the Arnold this year, and we can check it out, Nate. I'm glad to know that it works in real life and it's not just CGI. Maybe they'll have it at the Arnold this year

and we can check it out, Nate. Well, they'll probably be sold out by then. It'll just be... You think it's... It's all smoke and mirrors. Do you think it's a rare earth magnet? Maybe. Dude, what if... Oh my gosh! What if...

I don't know what it was right here. Let me go grab my Bruins. I'll try it out. It probably has great aluminum. Dude, what if that display is made of drink spotters? There you go. That's insane! I'm working on that.

I know what I'm doing tomorrow. I'll go grab my Bruins real quick and try it out right now yeah just hold the drink spotter above your boots they're floating I was actually surprised with how easy it was to squat in those things I mean if you ask me there's not much you can do

yeah that's great great sponsor great company would highly recommend them for a Mastics episode. If you ask me. Good pick. All right, Jeff, pick number two. Yeah. Well, you know, it's interesting because I know I've got another pick coming up here and a

couple of, a couple of picks as a snake makes the turn. So I think I'm going to, I'm going to lock up a segment right now. And I'm looking at a couple of iconic segments, really segments you couldn't have a show without. And so I think I'm going to go with a long-running segment, What's in the Camp?

For my choice. Honestly surprised that that lasted until round two. We played it today it's really hoping it made it to round three if I'm honest gotta be quick yeah you do

you have to be quick they call me the heartbreaker of the draft I have no idea how I didn't put that on my list I mean they don't do it very often, so it's not like you've heard it recently. Yeah, well, now they can't. They're so far apart. I mean, they still do it, don't they? I mean, they still...

They don't do a true what's in the can. There's no blindfold anymore. Yeah. And if you ask me, it's the blindfold that really does it for me. The Masonomics yeah and if you ask me it's a blindfold that really does it for me the the Masonomics blindfold though has to be the Masonomics blindfold

tell me about it stays on um stays on for the segment that is naughty folk um great pick I think we should start a petition to bring that back we should uh a petition to bring that back. We should load the

Crew Falls boys for the December to Remember event. Load those guys up with some cans. That's a good idea. We could pre-tape them. I'd be honestly happy with that. Let's get some more What's in the Can back in the Massanomics universe.

Any other thoughts on the What's in the Can back in the Masonomics universe. Any other thoughts on the What's in the Can segment? I'm going to start buying them random cans and just sending them. I think we should send them like teas for Joey. Just make it more difficult to do. Now you need to steep some water.

Have they tried hop water on the show yet? I don't think they've done hop water yet. I personally like hop water. I remember them talking about it. Isn't one of the host's wives big into it?

Or at least, I don't know, big into it's the right word for it. I thought Joey was talking about Hopwater. He did. He had some on the podcast, I thought. Maybe that's what I'm thinking of. I had looked into, I wanted to send some to them, and then

it was like $60 for a 12-pack, and I was like, I don't even, this is insanity. I just, sorry, guys. Find out their address, door dash it. And then put in the,

in the notes, Hey, buy some tape and wrap this up for them when you deliver it. Oh yeah. Maybe don't just say shipping. Address it to their wife. Yeah. I could get it.

Leave it in a bag in the garage. Yeah. I could get it delivered from Amazon for free, but... No. It was just like, why is this subpar water just so expensive? LaCroix offer there is ridiculous. They just took the claim on it and slapped a logo on it. Yeah.

What'd you say, Aaron? I didn't say anything right now, no. Oh, someone's talking. I don't know what's going on. Chris said something. So, rather than going out and looking... Rather than going out and... Chris just looks shocked that he said something. For the listeners at home.

Looking for LaCroix on Amazon, it's like $30 a 12-pack. I'm like, are you kidding me? Huh. Maybe it's just an Amazon problem. It's got to be something with handling and everything. I'm like, Jesus Christ.

How much handling are they doing? Yeah, right. Not much. gotta be something with handling and everything like that i'm like jesus christ yeah how much handling are they doing yeah right yeah not much they gotta be careful not to shake them don't want a special truck you can send it on a special truck all right we'll keep this moving we have people that need to get into the master bedroom. Be up after their thing. People need to get up after someone's thing. Alright, Mr. MoFo. Second pick. I'm going to go with a sponsor this time.

I'm big on nostalgia. This one recently dropped off, and nobody knew about it. Nobody noticed it. We picked up on it on a recent underrated or unpaid underrated episode, and that's going to be Sputnik straps.

You know, I only have one strap from them, but I've used other stuff from Spot Inc. over the years and whatnot. They make good stuff. I'm sure that them dropping off, it wasn't anything malicious or anything like that.

It was probably just a matter of maybe the numbers weren't coming through like they thought they were. Pencil or paper, maybe it didn't work out, but still, there's always great ad reads with them. So I think it'd make a great episode to have a spot on there. Yeah,

absolutely. I agree with that. I have a few spotting stuff in my bag just from strong man. And I, I enjoy their stuff. Quite possibly one of the most innovative. Sponsors. I mean, their website is insane.

There is just so much stuff. Something for everything. And they made the bow tie with Donnie Thompson. I got two points to make on the draft of Sputniks. First of all, Sputniks great products. Got a couple myself. But that was

everyone else already drafted a sponsor, so Mofo, you really dropped the ball on that one. You could have just saved them for that last pick, because no one else is going to be picking sponsors for the rest of the draft. Nobody ever said I was a poor man.

I don't know if anybody else listeneded to my episode but I don't Don't put it past me to draft another sponsor The other thing was that I don't know if anyone else had Previously ranked their Their sponsors And their segments and stuff But our sponsors went

One through five in the order that I had them. So I think we're all on the same page there. Sponsors were tight. Very tight. Yeah. I intentionally chose nostalgic ones. Someone mentioned a sponsor

in our... Now that all the sponsors are wrapped up. Well, we'll save this thing. We'll move along. Remind me in the future, guys, to ask about a historical question someone had, and maybe we can get some clarification there, some rulings on if that would have counted or not.

But, yeah, Spud Inc., great pick. Shout out to Spud. All the folks at spud-inc-straps.com. All right. Yeah, belt squat belts. Someone needs to pull up just a random page and get us a random product. Read a description just for old time's sake. It's nothing like the bow tie.

Nothing like, that's true. Nothing like the bow tie. All right, Mr. Mofo. Snaking back around, you get another pick. You could have also saved this one to not be your sponsor because you literally had any pick that you wanted. So think long and hard before you make this pick. It's very clear that I don't do fantasy football or anything like that.

I don't understand how drafts work. I'm not going to lie. My ADD kicked in when you're reading the rules, so I don't know how drafts work. I'm not going to lie. My ADD kicked in when you're reading the rules, so I don't know if I paid attention. You've only sent them like 10 times in the show. Remember, I forgot we were doing this. That's true. I'm going to go with a guess this time.

When I was looking at guess, I'm big on obscurity. I think it's funny. It makes it silly. So the guess I'm going to pick, I'd wager is probably not on anyone's list. There's one I'll tell you guys later on that I put on there, and I definitely know it's not on anyone's list. But I'll tell you guys later, I'm not going to pick this person, but they were a backup. My pick is going to be Immortal Barbell.

Very nice. Very nice. Good pick. Part of the reason why I picked Immortal Barbell is, you know, as with me, like, you know, I don't really put my name out there a lot. Immortal Barbell, during the whole entire episode, they referred to him as Immortal Barbell. They never talked about

his name. They talked about what he does. I've been following that guy long before he ever was on Massanomics. I love those cartoons that he does. I think they're freaking awesome. Every single one of them are always relatable. One of my favorite ones I've seen

is the guy squatting naked and jumping to the ground. It's like, ah, I can feel that I hit death. I just love those comics. Every time I hop on Instagram, I see one of those and I'm like, these are awesome. Yeah, so Mortal Barble would be my guess. Man.

That's a deep pick. That is a deep one, man. I like that a lot. What episode number is that? Oh, man. I'd that a lot. What episode number is that? Oh, man. I'd have to look it up. That'd be like early 200s, probably. I went from memory when I was looking at it. It wasn't long after they started doing phone guests.

228. Episode 228. Immortal Barbell Guy. That was August... Shoot, I just lost. August 11, 2020. There you go. Wow. What a pull. It was a little run there

where they had a couple of Meek McCown guests. It was interesting. Peek behind the curtain for sure with those cool what a yeah what a great instagram follow though great instagram follow yep he's like the lifting version of the uh what's that ah shoot now i can't remember the dude's name. He just had the show on Apple TV though, with the alien. Oh, what's the dude's name? It's a big Murph does Nathan pile. Yes. Yeah. Yeah.

My expansion and yeah. I've got behind, I have a, what is it? No, no. Oh man. I can't read it. Cause it's coming up on my bars. Shit. You can't turn it. No discomfort, no expansion. Yeah.

That's what my safety bar is called. It's no discomfort, no expansion. Yes. Yeah, that's a... Like something... Strange planet or something like that. Yeah. Yeah.

Yes. Yeah, he's like the lifting version of that to me. Um, very solid pick, solid pick. All right, Jeff, back to you.

What's it going to be? Yeah. Um, I am, I'm worried there's going to be a run on guests here and I need to lock one up before, uh, that long wait until I get to my round four pick.

So, um, this is tough and I'm actually not going to pick the guest I have top rated on this list because I'm just feeling like this particular pick brings in all of the best in terms of sets and rep talk, in terms of goofy talk, insanity, overall entertainment. Anytime this guest is on the podcast, you know it's going to be a good one. Might be a little bit of recency bias, but I think that the best pick here for guest at this moment

is going to be Mike Esratel. That's a good pick. I like that. You can't go wrong with that. Yeah, I thought about picking Dr. Mike, but Dr. Mike is a good pick i like that you can't go wrong with that yeah i thought about picking my dr mike but it's like dr mike's good pick he's uh he's has he been on twice twice yeah at first i thought he was being super crazy just to not be on again and then i'm like no that's just him yeah no he's just insane yeah. And the guests that produce their own content, podcasts or YouTube or whatever, they tend to be very good guests also from the standpoint of just the back and forth and the banter and carrying the conversation well.

Yeah. some of the stuff he says is pretty wild but i think is when you're that intelligent like you don't really you're not really as like aware of um like what's this what's like socially okay to say so so somebody's like you shouldn't say that but i don't think you know that that's that's okay but you're really smart so we'll let you get up away with it. As long as you don't do anything weird. I'm trying to remember if the first time I saw him, or listened to him speak in long form was on the Mastodonics podcast, or if it was on Table Talk.

Because I remember just the first time being like, what is going on? I just don't understand what is happening right now. I've listened to some wild podcasts in my lifetime but this guy is miles apart from like the strange things that i've heard people say yeah what a solid pick good good guest this is good follow too i'm a big

doctor like his youtube channel is killing it um Especially that last one they did about gauging your strength off of one lift. Something like that. I thought that was a really great episode. I would argue you missed out there, Kevin. Yeah. I was kind of thinking the guests might go a little bit longer, but he was honestly up next on my,

on my draft board. You hate to see it. You hate to see it. Any other thoughts on Dr. Mike? Anyone want to say anything? Absolutely profane in spirit of him. So wrong.

His, his rants were like, they seem like his rants are so thought out and then you're like no no he just he just blurts it out and just follows it along I sent us I sent some friends of mine this was I think

not on the latest episode this was maybe the first time he was on the clip of him talking about the Terminator scenario where you know it's not going to be like the terminator movie it's just going to be you know kill shot after kill shot from these you know hyper uh specialized robots and that's just listening to that stuff man is like yeah that's that's you're probably right that's pretty well his his ability to extemporaneously come up with just things is wild. Like, watching the chicken bake video

and knowing that that was all just straight ad lib for the entire, like, ten minutes that he was talking is insane. It's, yeah, excellent. Excellent little brain there. I'm just trying to stall because I just realized I have the next pick and I have zero clue what I'm just trying to stall because I just realized I have the next pick and I have zero clue what I'm going to pick. You're on the clock.

Yeah, I'm on the clock here. All right. I believe I only have segments remaining here. Um, I think I have to go with a, a tried and true, probably one of the, I think the longest segment, the longest running segment of the more sensual segments, which might pander to certain folk that are into those kinds of things. But I'm going to have to go with what's in the sack. Always excellent. Just things that come up. I mean, what's in the sack brought us one of the greatest podcast moments of lift

evil Frank being on the podcast, taking over the greatest podcast moments of, uh, lift evil Frank, um, being on the podcast, taking over the podcast. I mean, it is, uh, brought just many great moments on the podcast,

uh, thinking about, you know, just how obscene Tanner, uh, would make that segment, uh, in the early days.

Uh, Joey will have no clue what I'm talking about because he refuses to listen to those. But yeah, I think, I mean, anyone could call me out, but I think that is the longest running segment for the Massanomics podcast. Great segment. Love to

see it. Absolutely. And then there was a few times where it was What's in the Box? And it was, there was very was what's in the box. And it was very sexual what's in the sack segment as he brings stuff out of his sack. Yes. And empties his sack. Yes. He must

unload his sack for us. That's a good pick, man. I like that. I think lately they've been calling it what's in the bag. Yes. Do the chalk bag? Just so many, so many good things coming out of the sack. I mean, Tanner sack is just so fruitful if we're honest.

I mean, he did just have his fourth kid. Yeah. Yeah. Line that right up for you. Mildly uncomfortable to listen to some of those, but that's, I mean, that's what makes it a classic.

That's, that's, that's why it's coming off the board right now. That's a, that's a, you know, you're in the early, the early episodes.

If you just, sometimes you just feel mildly uncomfortable. You're like, ah, this must be an early episode poking me in weird spots. All right. Enough about my sack. Um, all right. Enough about my sack. Uh,

Chris, what's in your, uh, your sack for your, uh, your next pick. I'm torn all over the place of where to go. You've got a guest.

You've got two segments remaining. I feel like guests. There's so many that we could, you can wait on them and still have a good guest. There's a segment that I love that just disappeared, as

some do, but they are fluid and they come back every once in a while. That's Tanner Explains the Midwest. I'm going with that one. Great pick. Delete that one now. A good pick and homage to the two Midwesterners we have on this podcast here. Amen.

It fits right in perfectly. That'll preach. Two out of five ain't bad. He would go off about some stuff and it was and I'm like I would have never thought that like when he was explaining supper I was like it's just dinner but he's like no

it's like not dinner but it's something else I think yeah understanding just like I mean even the differences between their Midwest and our Midwest not to say that we're not the same Midwest, Eddie, wherever you're listening, don't come after me. But like, you know, there's different pockets of even those definitions. And I think the explaining different cultural phenomenons is always like really fun when you're just like, i have no clue what this person is talking about like i feel that way you know listening now to joey every week and joey says things and i'm just like what even like you just learned so much about i completely agree with you there um

it's always interesting i always forget that they say university instead of school or college college yeah yeah. I'm going to university. That's such a wild thing to do. It's just insane. What is a university you speak of? It's completely absurd. The institution I went to is a university, but I say I went to college.

Maybe we're the weird ones. I don't know. Yeah, probably. i think mine was second year university but it was just pay out pay for it online and then they give you a degree you just pay for the degree or did you actually do schooling i guess is the question i have to ask you now i did schooling but that's just that's how online school feels like yes you pay them you teach yourself and then eventually you get a degree yes this is highly accurate uh tanner explains the midwest i'd like

to hear tanner explain the midwest on on what we call universities versus college here soon um let's see if we can it's it's wild the things that get said on this podcast to slowly work their way into the main podcast somehow. It's like they're stealing from us. You're in for episode 402. Yeah. I would like... It would be just whispering in the ears of the sister podcast, you know.

Mention some segments here. It would be good to, you know, hear a couple of these maybe on the episode upcoming. Just wink, wink, nudge, nudge. Any other thoughts on the Midwest? There's no such thing. No such thing. Relax.

We're moving on. We're done with that. All right, Kevin. Your third pick of the draft. You've got some guests remaining. You have some segments remaining. What's it going to be? I am just reeling after Dr. Mike being taken.

I had him lined up to be picked here and he's gone now. I think I'm still going to stick in the guest category. It's another two-time guest. I think this one also going to stick in the guest category and it's another two time guest. And I think this one also might have some recency bias,

but I'm going to have to go with the fellow Ohioan, the Dave Tate. Uh, I think, uh, a lot of people, a lot of, a lot of,

you know, meatheads and wannabe meatheads and lifetime intermediates can agree that some of Dave Tate's articles were some of the first things that you dove into when you're learning how to get strong and stay strong and use your strength. And I still love pulling up articles and videos that he has now just to repeat now just, just to repeat his refreshers and just a little like tips and tricks and training protocols, you know, even as a, a raw lifetime natural, I know Maddie claiming it now, but, uh, yeah, I don't do the conjugate stuff. I don't do the equip stuff, but like, it's, he still has such good information. He makes such a great podcast guest. Like he gets it.

Um, and it's hilarious when he doesn't get it at first, but then he starts, you know, playing along with, uh, uh, some of the,

uh, some of the jokes. He starts to get it and he starts, starts laughing and having a good time. And it's, it's, it's, it's, it's a,

I think he's one of the top, top guests we can have. I think you're right. I think, I think he does a great job too, of, of obviously being expert on the sets and reps side of thing, but he can mix in some of the silly goosery,

keep it, keep it light, but interesting, informative, always learn something when, when they, they talk about guests. I think Dave was actually one of the first episodes I listened to.

I think he's around like the 250 mark, give or take. And so that's when I started cherry picking guests. I'm like, oh, I know this Dave Tate guy. I bet this is going to be good. And they were talking sets and reps. And then I just remember they got to the part where he's telling a story about how they came up with an interesting way to, to smell some smelling salts.

If any of you guys remember that segment, I'm not Dr. So I won't talk about that sort of 15 minute segment. That is a good pick, man. He gets the silly goose, too. Even though, like you said, when he doesn't get it, he works his way around to then playing into it. Yes.

Like that. He tries his best not to speak in absolutes which a lot of people in the fitness community do like while he is you know big on conjugate and that's like his baby that's what he does that's what he's always known like he recognizes the fact that there's other methods there's other ways to get strong stay strong and use your strength and he he he admits like when one when he's not an expert on something he's completely fine admitting the fact that he's not an expert on something that you need to talk to someone else but he'll give you his opinion on his honest opinion um and like

and yeah like he he has no problem being silly like he i if you i bet you if the guys interviewed him like 20 years ago 30 years ago it wouldn't have been the same thing. But at the age he's at now, with the wisdom he has now, he knows that you don't take things seriously. You just have fun. Yeah. I mean, owner, sole proprietor, inventor of TateSounds.com. I can't really shade any of this pick.

I was going to say, let's not forget about TaintSounds.com. We can't. It's just sitting out there on the internet. $12 a year, baby. Go in that domain. Still need to buy up. You should have that bookmarked. Need to buy up.

What's the other one? I was going to get Taint Sounds and redirect it. It was available just in case someone, just in case you never know. Yeah, Dave D, solid pick, Kevin. Solid pick. Very solid pick. Fellow Ohioan.

Building really an Ohio-based draft. I bet you couldn't get that Midwest segment. Yeah. Iowa-based draft. I bet you couldn't get that Midwest segment. All right, Kevin, you get another pick here. You got two segments available. Okay, well, for this one, I'm going to go with one that it was a hot segment for a while. And it kind of fell off. I don't remember the last time it's actually been on an episode,

but it was a really fun segment. It was pretty interactive. Um, and I think it engaged a lot of talk in the discord. And this segment is of course, as Tommy seen it. No, I hate you.

You bastard. Yeah, As Tommy Seen It. I hate you. You bastard. Yeah, dude, I was coming. I think it's such a good segment because, you know, like, movies are a very common thing that people just talk about. And whenever someone says that they haven't seen a movie, they're just, you, you haven't seen this movie. Like how are you alive and not seeing this movie? What other movie haven't you seen? And,

um, and it's really funny here in, uh, uh, you know, Tommy and Tanner going through on a year by year basis of which movies they've seen. And,

you know, of course they have to take out that, you know, big obvious ones that, you know, how could no one to take out that, you know, big obvious ones that, you know, how could no one have ever seen dumb and dumber, right? Right.

Nate update. I have seen it now. At least you go back and watch something that we tell you is good. Unlike a certain host. We know. Yeah. I'm going to double check Keith's rating real quick on a dumb and dumber.

Yeah. So I'm maybe a four of the hosts are listening right now, maybe that's something they can bring back. I think we were just approaching the early 2000s, which I think there are some killer movies in that era that

he probably has seen and would make for some great conversation. I personally like when they started to dive back into the eighties. Yeah. And I think there's some really good eighties ones out there that still need to be uncovered. So they can still do this. It's a,

it's a great segment. A quick followup. Keith did rate dumb and dumber, a six. And for those not familiar with the Glaze scale, a 6 in his rating system means just okay. Not mad I watched it, but I won't go out of my way to re-watch. Is that his actual explanation?

Yeah. Yeah, that's what he puts. I had Keith explain each one of his number ratings as to what it means. A little side tangent here. But yeah, six is

just okay. Not mad I watched it. But I won't go out of my way to re-watch. The rating descriptions make zero sense. They're fantastic. it, but I won't go out of my way to re-watch. The rating descriptions make zero sense. They're fantastic. I need to buy Glaze Search. They make sense to him.

I need to buy GlazeSearch.com so I can get a real domain for that site. But I'll put it in the show notes for this podcast if you're looking for Big Keith's movie ratings. You can follow those up and see what he rates stuff. But

we won't get too lost on Keith's ratings when we're really here to just dog Tommy for not watching any movies ever. He's a movie guy. Yeah, big movie buff. Anybody that has their own IMDB

page on what a movie is, yeah, he's a big movie guy. But hasn't seen Team America. Really? Yes. Yeah.

A few weeks ago. yes yeah a few weeks ago not always paying attention I love that segment with Tommy I always like to listen to it and sit there and alright am I going to beat Tommy this week

or am I going to lose to Tommy or am I going to tie with him I'm a little bit older than him I think I'm like 5 or 6 years gonna tie with him i'm a little bit older than him like i think i'm like five or six years older than tommy so i should have seen more movies than him but then again like my parents were like um hardcore like you will not watch rated r movies growing up so like i didn't get introduced to any of the good stuff until i was in my 20s so there's a lot of things i missed out on and i'm kind of lazy to go back and re-watch a bunch of stuff that i missed out on so some of the good ones like you're talking about 80s movies anything from the 80s I

probably haven't seen it unless it's a kid's movie um 90s it's hit or miss 2000s and up it's game on I've probably seen it and I rate it better than uh orange glaze would well anyone would anyone would it's not difficult. All right. Move on to my pick, and we're really reaching the end of this draft, and things are getting... And Chris's pick?

My pick. Oh, wait. Whose pick was that? Cheater. My bad. My bad. My bad. He's saying that you were drinking just one burger. Is it that same as a vodka? cheater my bad my bad promise it's water I was

the worst is I had Chris's Tanner explains the midwest which wasn't even the last pick highlighted I don't know what I'm doing over here I told you once we break the 10 o'clock barrier all bets are off I'm going downhill. Yeah.

Kevin's got a backup. Just start. I just put, I, I, I pick what you pick. You have no say, um,

Chris, uh, you got a segment, a guest left. What's it going to be? So I'm going to keep it with, uh, things about the crew

in general. And this one hasn't been on in quite some time. Every so often they'll bring it back out of the woodwork and they'll read a few and whatnot. But I'm going to podcast reviews. Every

so often I used to go through the old ones because i've written quite a few progression views because if somebody has an iphone i'll be like let me see your phone real quick and then i'll write one just to get on there and i'll be like ah let me see how long it takes before they read it so i would listen just to see if they would read it and they were actually still waiting for them to read what the 500th podcast review was they gotta bring it back

the thing that bothers me, that's a great choice and that was a great segment, the thing that bothers me about that so back when they were at, man I don't remember how many podcasts, I don't even think they were at 200 yet so I'm not an Apple, I don't remember how many podcasts. I don't even think they're at 200 yet. So I'm not an Apple guy.

I don't use Apple products. So the only way I was able to do it was to log in from my computer. I logged in. I wrote the review. It looked like it submitted. And I go back and it's not there. Go back and do it again. Try to remember what I wrote.

Still not there. I've tried to submit like five different times go back it's never there so i'm just giving up like i'm like what the hell is wrong like i guess because i'm not we're doing it from and actually you know what i take that back i tried even doing it for my wife's macbook and it still didn't show up maybe it's because it doesn't like my name mofo probably that's why i bought my you know my my email is in there and mofo is in my email on that one so maybe that's the reason why but i thought it was so funny because this is back when um tanner kept talking about how he was gonna buy

um a shirt from open powerlifting to support them and so i was gonna put i'll buy it i'll do it by supporting membership when you buy a shirt from powerlifting but he them and so i was gonna put i'll buy it i'll do it by supporting membership when you buy a shirt from open powerlifting but he hasn't talked about that in like two years so so the one thing i've noticed is that and it happened to me where i was i was copying and pasting the same one and it wasn't going through it wasn't going through because i had a curse word in there and i was like so I had to take that out in order for it to go through. And then it still took three days before it even showed up on the Apple podcast thing. Yeah, those all get filtered.

Some AI magic. Well, my username, like, both of those are my username. So I guess I don't know. I don't know if that would do it, but. Yeah, it would but it's a pain check all that stuff it's like Club Penguin all over again I'm just not allowed to exist

in the PAPA world but you know there's people that listen to the podcast and be like oh are they going to rebuff it was almost a precursor to supporting our supporting members that was how you easily made it into a mention on the podcast by leaving a review yeah I was going to say that it's the original way a mention on the podcast. I think you've been in review. Yeah, I was going to say that.

It's the original way to get on the podcast was you just had to leave a book and just hope for the best. I even waited until I finished the entire back catalog. So I started from episode one. What was it? I think I started in September of 2019. And then I finished in October of 2020. So that's not long after they started this porting membership thing

before the Discord was created. And so I was like, all right, I'm going to leave a review now, and I'm going to make it funny, and then we're going to read it on an episode, and I'm going to laugh while I'm driving to work. And no, it never shows up. on an episode and I'm going to laugh while I'm driving to work and no, it never shows up. You're the skeleton meme sitting on the park ramp waiting for them to read yours.

Alright, interns, get that meme made up. I mean, podcast reviews have a special place in my heart. Got me on the Mastanomics podcast as a sub-gu i guess um massonomics reviews.com that site's not working anymore and i don't know why uh so don't go check it out right now but eventually i'll take some time and figure that out but yeah dude podcast reviews. If you're in the supporting member crew, exclamation point review, I think, gets you a random review.

If you're in the mood for one, exclamation point count gets you the total count of five-star reviews. So use it up. Use those bots for Joey. He loves them. I love the bots yes then thank you thank you thank you yeah i do enjoy the bots big david and i thank you very much um we do uh do a lot of work on those Joey, just to be crapped on constantly. Life's work. Life's work.

And those bots, daggone it. All right. Again, stalling. What was that? Nate's just stalling for time. Yep.

Yep. Yep. Yep. You figured it out. Uh, not a lot of segments left. Um, my, uh, all right. I've got stuff that's still on my board. I think one of the

my, what is this, third pick here, fourth pick. I think this segment has caused some of the, the most chatter, uh, within the crew. Um, it's a great segment. Uh, it's might be very short lived. I haven't heard from it recently. Um, but the sports and books segment of the podcast, I think, for a moment became a very essential point of the podcast. Just in that Tanner was apparently reading for a short amount of time. And we can even tie it into previous book review segments that we've seen in the past. Books have always been an important part of the Masonomics history and lore. So I

think Sports and Books is a great segment. And it seems that anytime a book gets brought up in the Discord or in the podcast, the Discord just goes insane that someone had mentioned a book on the podcast. They're like, oh my gosh, I read that book too. And it's like, yes, it's one of the most read books and most popular books that's ever existed. Of course, everyone's read that. But yeah, I think sports and books is great. Not a big sports guy, obvious by my terrible draft strategy. But that's good. I mean, we're reaching a broader audience with that one. So yeah, sports and books for my fourth pick there. Yeah. Well, that's great.

One of the first episodes I remember listening to was Tommy Reviews, The Back Mechanic. And I continued listening to the podcast after that, you know, strikingly. But I used to always joke in the discord whenever they brought a book up, you know, is this going to be the next, you know, book review and then be careful what you wish for because you're right. You know,

we got sports and books and that really, uh, if you thought the discord was active before that really, really sent things into a tizzy. Yeah. And it's a dangerous one too, because the books they're reading are like, just, you know, they're reading are like just

you know they're not reading Twilight they're reading these like deep political just big thought books and I'm just like this is might be a little too heavy for us Tanner can we take it down a notch read some like Fifty Shades or something

like Eason I don't know I don't know books but something a little size of the Bible yeah well they don't obviously because they didn't know John 316 that's not going to be on the sports and books segment anytime soon which is just

ridiculous so yeah sports and books for me yes yeah they got it confused all time YouTube comment almost an original Brian alright Jeff you've moved draft locations

you're back again yeah we're in day two day two of the draft for Jeff. Uh-oh. I think Jeff's experiencing the Keith internet experience as he's moved. My internet connection is lately unstable, so if I have any... Oh, we already skipped you. We're moving on.

Am I back? I think he said said he wanted to draft Coop from Garage Gym Reviews. Yes. Come on. I told you I might wind up with two guests. You never know. It's a wild card kick.

Oh. The Jeopardy time. Jeff's getting so much dial-up audio in the post on this one. We just don't have Jeff whatsoever. Is it really that bad? Because you guys are not throwing at all. Are you messing with me? Impossible. Impossible.

It's just as you're about to speak. Let's go, Jeff. You're good. Let's go. Just don't move. I won't move. All right, Jeff, what's your pick? My pick for this round is Fitness Final. Oh, good one. Yeah.

You're going in the wayback machine. It's a little risky because I don't know if everybody's going to be as familiar with it as they should be. But if you have to promote fitness, fine. Didn't it pop back up recently? I think they mentioned it. Yeah. I don't think They mentioned it. Yeah. I don't think they mentioned it.

They mentioned it. That was a good one. Especially, you know, the constant, like, does it fit under your bed? Which is a valid question. I mean, they're doing great work. I wonder what I have here that fits under my bed.

Because when you stop using it, you need somewhere to put it. My wrist straps fit under my bed. I mean, if you disassemble anything in my gym, I think it fits under a bed. Barbells definitely do. If you've got bunk beds, then flip suit.

Yeah. Yeah. I got one of those adjustable beds, and then we got a big thing that goes around it so you can't really put anything on it. That's a Craftsmatic bed? It's like a cheaper version of a set of expensive ones, Tempur-Pedic. Not a Tempur-Pedic because it's a good uh cheaper version of um it's not expensive one tempur-pedic

but not a tempur-pedic because it's three grand cheaper i don't make that kind of money you can't have those commercials with that you have to have those commercials with the 80 year old couple if you crash and had a congestible bed you didn't go with Bob O'Peter Aaron you could you could make that big money if you worked with a friend of mine who's a financial planner he could probably help you work towards those goals

in your life just saying just saying the way that my brain works like I just have to spend and spend money listen Just saying. The way that my brain works, like, I just have to spend and spend money. Listen, listen here.

My, my spinning habits would, would make Jeff cry. Well, that'll be it. We'll save that for another podcast is what's the, there's some like financial dude. I always see the clips of. He's probably 30 years old. All the clips I always see is him just roasting people

for their terrible spendings and money picks. That'll just be Jeff and Mofo on a podcast episode where Jeff is like, what are you doing? But I wanted it. Why do you have two Netflix accounts not those clips one for me one for my wife alright

fitness finest great pick great pick alright mofo your last two picked here to round out the draft what are they gonna be alright here we go All right, MoFo. Your last two picks here to round out the draft. What are they going to be? All right, here we go.

Do I want to go in the order that I put them in or do I want to move them around and kind of shake things up a little bit? I don't know. Does draft order matter? I mean, that's the question. Well, it's snakes I get to do too. Yeah, but what do you think's more important, though? Draft order matters, right?

What do you value more? I don't even know how the draft order works, obviously, because I picked a sponsor when I could have just saved it. So this is what I'm going to do. I'm going to go. I am going shake shake up my order a little bit because you know now that we've gone through i'm gonna go with uh heavy thoughts with tanner just because uh i thought that those were always um funny to hear his more philosophical philosophical takes on uh things that don't matter. I think going into like deep, meaningful conversations about things that are completely irrelevant, just make things that more silly.

I do that a lot at work. And sometimes it drives people insane and I love it. So I just always loved hearing those. Heavy Thoughts with Tanner is going to be my next pick. I think my favorite one from that was that you don't own anything, it's just your turn with it. I think that someone just harkened back to that in the Discord today. Was that the start of it was that the original heavy thought uh no i don't know oh that that's just what that was a harkening today but

that's not what started it i don't remember what started it it wasn't it wasn't a very long segment he only did it for a handful of times i was say, we'll have to get our historians on that and track down the original heavy thought. One might say the heaviest thought. If only we had a way to search through the dialogue of the whole catalog.

I think I know a guy. I think I know a guy. Technically a guy. Yeah. know a guy you know a guy yeah technically a guy yeah that's the thing a thing we want to do a thing that i'm still trying to figure out how expensive it will be to host a database that large with all of that text what we just did the math like last week there's 550 odd hours of Like last week, there's 550-odd hours of Masonomics podcast time, and that's a lot of words. Maybe forget that sponsorship money.

Start rolling it in. That's what it can pay for. Yes, and the development time and a computer that can actually process the transcription. It'll take me over 500 hours to even transcribe all those. We'll just pay some intern to manually transcribe those. We have

unpaid interns. We don't need to pay anybody. I didn't say they were paid. I just said interns, right? You just said we'd have to pay some intern. Oh, shoot. I'm so... I'll fix that in post, guys. I'm so sorry. Fix that fix that in post, guys. I'm so sorry. Fix that in post. I'll do it for you.

Yeah, I was going to say fiber. Speaking of heavy thoughts. All right. What's our final pick there, Mr. Mofo? All right. So the next one was another good one, short-lived,

but, I mean, you know, I'll say one of the things that was on it first, just because I think I will make people remember it, but ejaculoid

supplements real estate. I will make people remember it, but ejaculoid supplements, real or fake. That was a great segment. I mean, I've, I don't know how long everybody else has been lifting. I've been doing this thing for, you know,

over 20 years. I've been taking supplements since I was like 19 years old. I remember when, um, bodybuilding.com was more like just a scrolling website and even some like the more like sketchy websites back in the day and just seeing some of the supplements that were out there and even seeing some of the stuff now that's used in a particular industry that is not fitness related but they use it to enhance things it's just it's ridiculous and

it was always funny hearing them and having them guess whether it was real or fake. So, yeah, that definitely rounds out a great episode right there. It's something that's really fake. Great segment. I mean, ejaculoid is still a Discord reaction today, so. And it's an ongoing joke that just rounded itself out again with Build Fast Formula. Yeah. And it's an ongoing joke that just rounded itself out again with Build Fast Formula. We've got our hearts and minds.

It's an immortal segment. Did they just do that again with Jordan Feigenbaum in that last episode? A couple ago? I was thinking about that. Yeah, they did, actually. They really harkened back to that one. It's a quick one. Right. In that segment gave Burke something like

fitness finest and you know all of the silly usury that came with some of that really a foundational foundational segment of the podcast a dynasty pick if you ask me alright Jeff our last pick of the draft dynasty pick, if you ask me. Alright, Jeff. Our last pick of the draft.

Yeah, I'm going to bring one back that hasn't been explicitly brought back, but I think that sort of in spirit, it has been brought back over the last few weeks. It's a conversation starter, and I think also as the crew has grown, I think this sort of thing is going to make its way into more and more future episodes, whether again, whether it's brought back in name or just sort of in spirit. But

for my last pick, I'm going to go with comment of the week, Instagram comment. That's the final segment. It's definitely been around in spirit, that's for sure. Yeah, that's a final segment. It's definitely been around in spirit. That's for sure. Yeah, that's a good one. It's kind of been around now with Brian. Well, that's what I'm saying.

I mean, it hasn't been broke out to the point of a segment, but we're certainly... And whoever the other guy was. Cody? Yeah. Yeah, I can't quite figure that guy out man Cody giving Dan Bell a hard time Yeah Well who did he

He DM'd someone He responded to somebody's story Oh yeah Big Jaunty Told him he was gonna arrest him Yeah I believe it was Big to say. Yeah. I believe it's Big John C.

Yeah. Just out of nowhere. Yeah. Who does that? Yeah. I mean, that's going out of your way. That's not even just saying to the guy that's going right next to you, hey, you know, you better. Better careful.

This is, this is extra effort. That's where I'm curious if it's someone like Big Matt out there just trying to stir the pot. Yeah, stir the pot. He obviously wants to get on this podcast and just doesn't understand that's not the way that you do it. I don't know. At least not in a good light.

There's quite a few of us that can dig into them pretty good. That's more flies with honey than eggs. Keith immediately reached out to Brian and tried to get him on. Yeah. A waiting response.

Yeah, that would be legendary. Alright. I'm still trying to figure out stuff we can stall Yeah, that would be legendary. All right. I'm still trying to figure out stuff we can stall with here, but I'm going to have to make a pick here. I'm on the clock. We're quickly getting past times that I didn't think we would make it past in this recording.

I have to pick a final segment here. Really thinking on this one. And I think I need a crew-based pick. I need one that appeals to the masses. Not that I would pander, would never pander. But I think these episodes are always fun when this segment gets brought in. They're always a little wild, but they might be what one would call a precursor

to the Unpaid and Underrated Podcast, and that is the call-in segments. When, for some reason, they think it's a good idea just to let people call in on the podcast, which is just a terrifying thing that they do. You get Keith, who was just like apparently just drunk, which is just the picture in your head. Keith just on the phone, drunk, sitting outside,

walking up the sidewalk, yelling at his phone about Coop on the massonomics podcast just like just some great moments uh that had come out of that just every no one ever answering their phone uh when they get called like it yeah just tons of good moments out of that gets everyone um involved on the podcast and and really just a precursor to the Unpaid and Underrated podcast, if you ask me. Well, it's the extension to the PartyCast in a way. Yes.

That's a good pick, man. Good pick. PartyCast was good. I agree. As someone that's been able to be on one of the call-ins, it was funny. I actually missed the call the first time because it wouldn't let me answer

because I was in the middle of a workout and my phone wouldn't disconnect from my Bluetooth speaker when I was trying to answer the phone. I was like, no, I'm here. Call me back. I was so disappointed. When they, they did a call-in episode recently. I think it was post Arnold.

And I knew I was probably going to go to bed before they called and I really wanted to go to bed. And so I had set a custom ring answering machine that was like one of the hello. And then like it waited for a while and then it would be like, gotcha. And they didn't let it go to the answering machine. And I was like so upset that that happened. But I had forgotten that I changed my voicemail message to that. And some like that we had bought a car like it was this was like months later we had bought a car and some like little old lady from the dealership was like

trying to get in contact with me about something and i just i got a voicemail from her like hey you know can you come to do whatever and i was like yeah sure um and then I realized that she had to deal with my hello. Ha ha sucker. And I was like, I felt so bad for that. Um, so yeah, the call an episode just has a special place in my heart. Also one time Tanner was like,

you never sent me a DM to be on. And I was like, I did. And then he checked the check their seats and I, he just completely overlooked me. So it's been a, it's been a tough one for me for sure. The calling episodes are always my favorite.

The first one, I didn't get called. Then the most recent one they did, he was like, Oh, I think he might be asleep, which typically I would be. But I was like,

I knew that was happening. So I stayed on and then my phone started ringing. I was like, I think he might be asleep, which typically I would be. But I was like, I knew that was happening, so I stayed on. And then my phone started ringing, and I was like, buddy caps. Finally got him on. Yeah, finally got him on. I just love that we now all have Tanner's phone number. Yes. Every once in a while, I get a little thing on Snapchat that says, would you like to add Tanner Baird On Snapchat

The answer should be yes you should do it At least you can get the stereo updates Yes That might make Kevin a mole I don't know You gotta be careful Careful where you ride there Alright Chris Uh Be careful where you ride there. All right, Chris.

I'm down to my final pick. You are. I have one that is tried and true, and then one that's kind of an outlier that I don't know if anybody would go with. I was going to go with the outlier. I'm going to go with the outlier yeah I'm going to go with the outlier only because he he gets the jokes

and he is a supporting member so I'm going to go Sam Brown nice fellow elite FCS his episode was really good I was fracking up during his episode and I always look back at that one. I was like,

that episode was really good for at the time, not knowing who he was. Yeah. Sam's a solid dude. Uh, shout out brown sounds.com. Um, which,

which is a secret setting on Tate sounds.com. You can get to, if you go down to, uh, what is it? The good job uh sound it converts to brownsounds.com uh so yeah shout out uh sam brown um what a baller what a baller what's funny about him is he's someone i just recently actually saw what he looked like on instagram his voice does not match his his appearance whatsoever no not at all well hello there uh yeah he just uh he was just on the table talk podcast too i need to listen to uh

his episode he was on i think with uh dr mcgill dr stewart mcgill um he was he was on, I think, with Dr. McGill, Dr. Stuart McGill. He was on again? Yeah, I think he came on with Dr. McGill because he's a back whatever Dr. McGill's certification.

He's a mechanic himself to some level. He's got that connection there. His podcast isn't bad, but when you get through... I think he was dealing with quite a few microphone and sound issues for quite a bit.

It made it very difficult to listen to. As a man who helps to produce a podcast, it is very difficult. It's not easy. Um, especially when, at least for this podcast,

we have some say over what people do and we have like, um, relationships with people. Uh, I can't imagine just getting random people to like, Hey, get on this call and do these things. I just,

I feel like it would be a disaster. So props to him for doing that, Sam Brown. Any other thoughts on the brown man himself? All right. Kevin, you have the last pick of the draft. Bring us home. How do you round out your Massanomics episode? I'm kind of pissed now that I've already picked my guess because

this would be Mr. Irrelevant. The last pick of the draft, if you're familiar with NFL drafts. He would have been Mr. Irrelevant. I think he would have been a real sleeper pick. I was going to go with Shane Hunt, but I already have been Mr. Irrelevant. I think he would have been a real sleeper pick. I was going to go with Shane Hunt, but, you know, I already have my guess. But since I can't do that, I think I'm going to go with a little bit of a theme, rounding things out, coming back full circle with the gating strength segment. That came from the Qating strength segment that came from the q a segment um i think that's a you know it's very adjacent to the call-in episode style uh and the best thing about that is that a lot of people

get to get involved um with the podcast um they can really fire through the questions and that's actually one of the things that really drew me in to the deeper Mathsonomics lore and getting into the Discord. Before I was even a supporting member, I submitted a question, and I listened to the episode, and I was like, they actually said the question. And they said that I asked the question. So they really know how the, you know, they're,

they, they really know how to draw you in and, you know, it always generates some good discussion. So I'm the Q and a. It's great pick. I mean, it's good.

Good pick the, the Q and a and the call in have some crossover that sometimes those are just the same thing. Um, but two distinct picks, uh, distinct picks is my official ruling there. So we'll allow it. Druthers have been used. Druthers, yes. We have Druthersed.

Any other thoughts on our Q&A? Any questions and answers for the question and answer pick? It's good. I mean, it's a great way to get your following involved it's true we need a we need a shout out to

Tanner here if you're listening we need just in the Instagram like a anonymous ask me anything that everyone

always does I feel like that would be that'd be a fun one to do on the Massanomics Instagram also I feel like that's be a good one. That'd be a fun one to do on the massonomics Instagram.

Also, I feel like that's just the Q and a, but, but anonymous. Well, there's, well, there's, there's the NGL. Well, I mean like just, I think a big spoon does it all the time. Yeah. Just like in the stories. I think that would be fun. So Tanner do that. Um,

we have command over you with this podcast, so you must do it now. Um, yeah. Anything else? We'll round out this, uh, we'll round out this draft and head towards the end of this episode.

I can finally dive right in. Nope. All right. Before we round out this draft, I want to take a moment to thank our other sponsor, Obsidian Ammonia. We all love ammonia here. You will just get to see, before this, wait, yes. Recently, amongst the releasing of this episode, there will be more than likely

a special Black Friday Masanomics Obsidian Ammonia CloLab that you should go out and buy. What it is, we don't know. It's a secret. I won't even tell you, even though this has been recorded after that, obviously, time's a flat circle. So since we don't, or maybe we do know what that scent is, we won't tell you. We want to just get a quick round. Robin, what's everyone's favorite obsidian ammonia scent?

Big mofo. Go ahead first. Mine's going to be the Dakota Breeze. Take a little hit of it right now oh gosh oh there we go i'm awake i forgot i forgot your west coast so that's not as dangerous for you it's a late o'clock for me it's not bad it's hopefully the only one i ever used from them but it's a great scent.

Big Jeff, you have any thoughts on your favorite scents? Fresh linen, summer breeze. Gets you ready for a nice, clean PR. Big Chris? I'm going Dakota Breeze, too. Well, I mean, the straight-up Mastinomics Lift Lift Hard Living Classic one was good, but I lost my bottle, so they were just strewn all over the place, so I'm definitely going Dakota Breeze.

Kevin. And I gotta go with a classic, the Alemonia. You know, who doesn't love the smell of beer to get you hyped up for a big lift? Because who would drink beer before doing a big lift? Yeah, it's ridiculous. Nobody that deadlifts over 700 pounds would.

Yeah. I have to go with the ammonia as well it was my my first uh foray into ammonia and uh it's a great one obsidian does some some great stuff and if you're interested in taking your first foray foray however you say it uh into the ammonia world, check out Obsidian Ammonia.

All right. The draft results are in in i'll read off our uh our picks real quick just so one to make sure my spreadsheets right uh and two so we all know where we land we'll do some quick honorable mentions and we will see our way out. So, Mr. Mofo himself has picked overrated, underrated for his first segment, heavy thoughts with Tanner for his second segment, supplements real or fake for

his third segment, ad read was spud ink straps, and guest was immortal barbell. Big Jeff picked what's in the can, fitness finest, comment of the Week, Texas Power Bar, and Mr. Big Dr. Mike Isretel. Myself, Big Nate, chose the classic sack segment. Sports and Books, Call-In Episodes,, barefoot shoes, and none other than Big Grant

for the guest. Big Chris Cho's supporting our supporting members, Tanner Explains the Midwest, Podcast Reviews, The Strength Co., and Sam Brown. And coming in for our last, uh, contestant guest extraordinaire, Ohio man himself, big Kevin shows best gauge of strength. Has Tommy seen it? Q and a jug juggernaut AI specifically. And Mr.

Big Dave Tate himself. Mr. Big Dave Tate himself. And that rounds out our draft segment for this week's podcast. Now we can dive right in to some honorable mentions, but before I do that, I want to note that those listening, this will be a voted-on experience. We will have in the show notes of this podcast a link to vote on who you thought won the draft. Which Massanomics episode would you want to listen to the most out of what was picked?

The winner will get something. Maybe. I don't know. Haven't figured that out yet. Hopefully Tanner just sends me something in the mail that I can send back out to these guys. Maybe we can work a big thing together. Maybe you just get bragging rights. Who knows?

Maybe we do another draft and you get to be on. We'll see what happens in the future. But yeah. Size check. Yeah, sure. Yeah. Very, very small size check. Regular size check.

We'll get you a note card that says check on it okay um that's about that's what uh that's what we'll we'll get you there um but yeah go vote on who you thought did the best and uh honorable mentions anybody have anything that they wish got mentioned could have wanted to mention didn't't get to? Anything out there? I don't want to drag it on too long, but I am shocked we didn't go True OG and select Dan Bell. He was the second one I was going with. Anything with him just giggling away, I'm like,

dude, I could listen to that dude all day. All day. He's a solid one i really uh it was very tempting for me to pick um coop from garage gym reviews um just it took everything in me not to um but just for keith i really wanted to pick him and kevin even mentioned it for a moment and i was like i was pretty it's on my list it's sitting over here I was like who could I I should probably put Coop down which honestly he was what brought me to

Masonomics so I do have him to thank he was a fair episode yeah that was back when he still owned his own company well who knows can we really know that for sure anything else we wish got mentioned? Any future

guests? I'm surprised we didn't talk about Chris Duffin or Huck Finn. Huck Finn was on mine. He was on there. Huck Finn was my number one. There it goes, Jeff.

There it goes Jeff there it goes and a future guest wide enough appeal wide enough appeal damn it Keith Keith Jeff did you move into Keith's house get out of Keith's basement

Get some internet So I know we were about to talk about future I was saying I have Hunchkin up there too Yeah No I was going to say that

Yeah go ahead Kevin Future guest one that I've been harping on Before was a you know The professor himself Don Mazzetti Yeah, go ahead, Kevin. A future guest, one that I've been harping on before, was the professor himself, Don Mazzetti. He might be a little bit past his peak YouTube glory, but I still think he fits in with the silly goose time that could be had. Dude's up to some wild stuff. Yeah.

Not wild, but just just like wait a second dude just own a weird clothing company now i wonder who else could do that um now that's that's what we need is a dom mazetti whatever the heck his clothing company is now massonomics collab for some like thousand dollar jean jacket yeah wait is he doing more than just his parody t-shirts? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like his, like the actual, and it's like not Dom, it's like whatever the dude's actual name is. He has like sort of like weird fashion thingamajig that he does. Yeah, I can see that.

Not weird, just like. The Dom Mazzetti stuff, like that was at least my introduction to lifting parody you know apparel you know like he did all the uh uh universities as big joey might say uh university logos but as like a gym bro equivalent uh Uh, he, he, he does some, some beer ones now too. So like, he's, I think he's, he might be stepping on some toes here,

but I think there's a, you know, good opportunity for a collab there too. Anything else? Uh, I, I was very tempted just because I know that the response would have been, um,

it would have been a lot of hate, but just cause I thought it would have been funny with just to have picked Julian Paneau as my guest. I know everybody hates it. So you can't understand what the hell he's saying. I love picking obscure things. I love things that like kind of piss people off sometimes. So I just thought I was like,

do I go that route or do I go with something that I actually would have enjoyed listening? I'll do with what I actually enjoyed listening, which is probably for the better. You should have just done an episode of hate and rage, just only picked things that no one likes.

I even thought about putting Evan Cardone on there, but I think no, I'm not even going that route. My putting Evan Cardone on there but I think no I thought about Cardone too that's a dangerous one fucking douche a little sketchy a little sketch I did just think of one other

future guest Brian that would make one hell of an episode it would Just think of one other future guest, Brian. That would make one hell of an episode. Yeah, it would. At least we'd get closure. Yeah, that's what we're all really just looking for, is a little bit of closure.

All right, I guess we'll bring her on in. We'll dive right in. We're just under two hours. I said we would barely make it over an hour which which means we can probably just reach to three and and uh beat keith and joey's pr um my wife just texted me and she was like what happened and i was like i have no idea i don't know it just got off the.
