We weigh the pros and cons of items like frozen lasagna, French bread and meatballs, engaging in lively debates over the merits of these foods. We even have a special guest, Steve from Michigan, to share his take on the best midnight snacks – is it sugar cookies or is it the crumb cake cookies?
And finally, let's not forget the classics like puppy chow and pasta salad, and of course, those unconventional options like artichoke dip and brownies.

This is the fantasy football dudes podcast.
Speaker 2:What is up, my dudes? This is Trent with the fantasy football dudes podcast. I am joined by Phil Jordan and Seth and we are doing a draft here today, a good old fashioned dudes draft. Today's draft is going to be work potlucks, so things you would take to a work potluck and to just recap the draft. We're not gonna recap last week's draft, we're gonna go straight into the draft order. I had someone say that, hey, I listen to all these drafts. You guys give away the results and I haven't listened to that draft yet. So people who go back, maybe that's right.
Speaker 3:Maybe that's not.
Speaker 2:I don't know, but last week's midnight snacks draft. How about you listen to our stuff on time? They should listen on time. So I'm fine, I'll run through.
Speaker 4:You don't prioritize us. I don't care.
Speaker 2:Our winner was team four. Well, some of it's new people who just have never heard us before, you know what I'm saying. Oh, I do care then I apologize. Team four won with 45% of the votes. The guy who actually had a midnight snack draft and it, like you know, go extra like everyone else and get in the car. I had pizza ice cream and Oreos. In second place was team three, with 29% of the votes. They had cookies, taco truck and peanut butter pretzels. Jordan, you only went outside of the house one time. I think that's why you won. And then team one.
Speaker 4:Everyone eats tacos at midnight right.
Speaker 2:Taco truck. Yes, jordan did not win, even in Nebraska. No, jordan took second Team three. Well, those guys don't know. Third place was team one with 20% of the votes. Cementose crunch, Taco Bell and Denny's grand slam.
Speaker 3:I'm surprised that one didn't win. Honestly, that's a good. Whose team was?
Speaker 2:that and they'll probably answer your question. Team two with 4% of the votes popcorn, milkshakes and blueberries. I think you lost it with blueberries.
Speaker 3:You also put up a smoothie instead of a milkshake, so that's kind of a problem. No, that's a milkshake.
Speaker 2:That's a strawberry milkshake.
Speaker 3:It looks like.
Speaker 2:They don't put whipping cream in a milkshake, in a smoothie.
Speaker 5:I can see you doing that In some places. Mike Jordan does. Jordan puts whipping cream in everything. That's not fair.
Speaker 3:So there's a place in town that definitely does.
Speaker 2:Someone said team two had the worst draft of all time. This is what Steve from Michigan said, so I'm sorry about that, seth. Sorry, you had to hear that.
Speaker 5:He also lives in Michigan, so yeah, oh man shots fired.
Speaker 3:Hey man, easy, easy boys going on here. He's got his mud dog shirt on.
Speaker 2:Speaking of Michigan guys, the modern man's a man who takes care of himself. Manscaping isn't just for life, special occasions. It's a requirement for optimal health and spear hygiene and healthy self-esteem. You now have the right tools for safe and precise grooming and hard navigate sense of areas Introduced. 20% for 20% off your whole entire order. They got the weed whacker. They got the lawnmower 4.0. It has a flashlight. They got boxers. They got it all. Lip gloss, everything Go to Manscape. Tell them the dude's. 20% off that whole entire order. So today's draft you say lip gloss. They got lip gloss, chapstick, lip gloss.
Speaker 5:I don't know what's going on. Lip gloss, what the Lip gloss? No one people on Manscape aren't nine year old girls buying lip gloss Lip balm, I think, is like You're probably buys lip gloss Chapstick. It's just chapstick.
Speaker 3:Lip gloss.
Speaker 5:All right. Well, what's?
Speaker 3:the trend calls it. Can you pay us for that lip gloss?
Speaker 5:Even that lip gloss that plumps my lips.
Speaker 3:Yeah, he burns a little more. He's a girl dad, so that's probably All right. This is weird, seth, and I wouldn't say that.
Speaker 2:The draft order will be me, Jordan, Phil, then Seth. That's a little complicated like that, but we're doing work, potluck okay.
Speaker 3:So why do you like potlucks?
Speaker 1:I like potlucks because Trent loves free food.
Speaker 3:I work from home, so technically every day's a potluck for me.
Speaker 2:Here's the deal, though, with work potlucks. There's a sense of mystery, sense of mystery. Adventure. You don't know what you're gonna get. It could be really good. Maybe it's not very good, but I You're basically walking into someone's home.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 3:Yes, you are For the good or the bad of the situation. Yes, and there's always someone you're like yeah, I probably don't wanna touch that person's.
Speaker 2:It's kind of like oh, they brought that, Maybe I don't want it yeah.
Speaker 3:You know what I'm saying? Did they wash their hands before they made it? That's why it's best to know I never worry about that.
Speaker 5:That's why it's best to know. You don't wanna know who brought it. You don't wanna know who brought it.
Speaker 3:I would rather not know, but you also kinda want there to be names on it also. You know what I'm saying. So you can blame if it sucks. Yeah, yeah, blame if it sucks, and you can't push it off like oh yeah, that was so and so not me.
Speaker 4:Yeah so.
Speaker 3:And these are. You know, people are already getting ready for the holidays trend. It's August. Can you believe that?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think a potluck for a fancy football draft is pretty good too. Wait, when's the next holiday?
Speaker 5:That's what I'm saying. People are there's already. When is the next holiday?
Speaker 3:I would consider. I would consider Halloween. I would consider Halloween a holiday.
Speaker 5:Like almost three months away.
Speaker 3:I was at Walmart today. They had a bunch of Halloween stuff which is crazy, isn't it? All I'm saying is the reason that we're doing one of the things is that potlucks pretty common around the holidays. Is what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 3:But they're also pretty common for drafts, which that's probably what we should've just talked about.
Speaker 2:I don't know if they are common.
Speaker 3:I was terrible at common. You just enter into this banter You're instead of starting to do some research, so I'm gonna do my first draft.
Speaker 2:I'm gonna do my first pick here and I there's a lot of ways you can spin this right. So there's work potlucks that everyone brings a side dish. There's work potlucks when you know you bring a main course.
Speaker 3:It all depends you sign up for something.
Speaker 2:You could sign up yeah, or there's mystery Intrigue. I don't think I'm gonna go with my dessert as the 101, though I'm gonna go with a.
Speaker 3:You might be able to get that back around. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:I think I'm gonna get it back. So we're going three rounds here. I'm gonna go with chips and salsa. I think that's a solid work potluck thing to bring.
Speaker 4:Do you not?
Speaker 5:like that. I think that's a horrible thing. You don't like it. You don't like chips and salsa. No, it better be a big bowl with a lot of salsa.
Speaker 3:Yeah, Trent, I feel like you always are a chips and salsa guy.
Speaker 4:I am a chips and salsa guy Every single time because he's a grazer, he's a snacker, I'm a grazer, he's a chips and salsa guy and then dumps ketchup in his salsa.
Speaker 2:I haven't done that. It's probably good, though. Oh my gosh, seth is beyond himself right now, angry.
Speaker 5:Like I just don't know why you doubled down on the ketchup man I don't know. I said chips and salsa Just don't use the ketchup and actually like enjoy the food and don't Americanify it.
Speaker 2:Hey, america's a great country. If you don't like it, you can leave Seth.
Speaker 5:America's a great country because they'll let you put ketchup on anything you want.
Speaker 4:No, America's a great country because we can have salsa and not have to put ketchup on it. We just have real salsa. Good point, Jordan.
Speaker 3:The problem is this guy doesn't understand logic I can get whatever food I want in America.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's true, and you can mix it up and get the best of both worlds.
Speaker 3:I'm not doing it.
Speaker 2:My entire said that All right. No, really.
Speaker 5:I believe it's Hannah Montana.
Speaker 2:And what are we doing here? Jordan, You're up, You're on the clock buddy. Man there's a couple good options here. I don't think there's really a wrong answer.
Speaker 5:No, there's not.
Speaker 2:So hey, I go to a pot. Look, I bring chips and salsa. No one here is eating that. Oh I didn't?
Speaker 3:No, there's other grazing items that I like on there Chips and salsa is one of the safest things.
Speaker 2:I start to reboard draft to be very good.
Speaker 3:Yeah, like what you go to first.
Speaker 4:What you go to, I'm gonna go with that's tough Chili, no.
Speaker 1:I'm gonna go with wings, that's good.
Speaker 4:Jordan.
Speaker 2:That's a good one. Wow, wow.
Speaker 4:Good way.
Speaker 2:Mike drop, drop your Mike.
Speaker 4:There's a couple of the other ones that I thought there's about three that I was really going back and forth between.
Speaker 2:No, I can't. You can't fight with wings. That was a huge miss by me and my part. Uh, we talk about wings a lot on this pod. I think we do.
Speaker 3:Yeah, not too much, not overly. This is a chicken pod.
Speaker 5:Yeah, you have playing Pollo pod A poyo pod.
Speaker 3:I love when you catch Trannof guard, when you, when you catch him at a point where he really has no idea what to say Everybody.
Speaker 1:Drums is what I've been wanting to say flats or drums, drums.
Speaker 5:No drums drums, more meat on drums, but you can. You can eat more, so it's easier, better about yourself, or it doesn't matter, you just eat whatever runs chicken you want. Well, this is a work pot.
Speaker 2:Look, people might you know, judge you. Well, I mean All right, I don't know, did everybody's works experience is different working by, I can't say what I wanted to say. You should practice that the rest of your life.
Speaker 5:I think, With the water boy jersey.
Speaker 3:I'm gonna go with Um. I like the. Uh. I'm gonna go with the chips and chips route, but I'm gonna go with the. I really like the buffalo chicken dip that people. I feel like that has become more of a potluck staple in the last Five years when you just say buffalo chicken, the buffalo
Speaker 4:chicken dip. You know what I'm saying. Also could have got that like a third round, but no someone brought that king of that though Someone brought that to our draft, our first dynasty draft.
Speaker 2:And no one ate it.
Speaker 4:No, no, it's really good, I really liked it a lot.
Speaker 3:It's good, no one would have thought of it, but I just, you know, I want to make, I really bring it up for conversation.
Speaker 4:You know we're gonna spend the next five minutes talking because we couldn't have conversation five, 10 minutes from now. That's a really good.
Speaker 3:Bunch of chips, trent, and then you dip it in the buffalo. What kind?
Speaker 4:of chicken dip.
Speaker 2:Uh, I like tortilla chip but people do pita. Hey man, hey, no one's judging his chip pick. You know what I mean. Like I did the same thing because it's buffalo chicken like there's yeah meat
Speaker 1:to it Like there's some.
Speaker 4:That's the grazing aspect that we're talking about like you could almost could have that as like a meal, like I'm not knowing.
Speaker 3:I seen you eat that on your way into work, Like that's that.
Speaker 4:No, no you could get the pita bread and the buffalo chicken dip and that's a, that's a light lunch, dude, the pita bread in those is pretty good. Or just pita chips, yeah, or like the little um, like there's mini, like mini um bread you Like people do with the artichoke dip, like the same type of bread you know I'm talking about, oh, the, are you talking about pita chips? I'm going to say pita chips.
Speaker 2:It's not that I know it's, it's, it's, uh, it's like small, like loaves of, like the stuff they have at, like maniturinium food. Are you talking about?
Speaker 3:non no no, no, no, mana pokasha it's a mana.
Speaker 4:I don't know, I got a non no tortillas.
Speaker 2:I know exactly what you're talking about. It's soft. Yeah, it's like soft and you use it to eat hummus. Oh yeah, no, that's not what I was thinking.
Speaker 5:Sourdough toast.
Speaker 4:Yeah, like, maybe like something like that Sourdough.
Speaker 5:You can think of the name Like a baguette like a small.
Speaker 1:Oh, Jordan's talking like the ones that you'd like, the mini ones.
Speaker 5:Like you put, like the cut up tomatoes on.
Speaker 3:No, not the bruschetta. No no, I know what you're talking about. Same deal.
Speaker 1:That is kind of like bruschetta bread, though.
Speaker 3:It's a sourdough.
Speaker 2:I think it's a sourdough roll or something like that. Yeah, go. By far the best pick of this round is Jordan. He's winning the round.
Speaker 5:Yeah, for sure, for sure, I might win you over on this one right here. I don't know Blueberries, I don't know that was a terrible pick.
Speaker 2:It was Midnight snack trap Blueberries no, that was your like.
Speaker 5:When there's nothing else in the house to get blueberries. That was his dart throw. I'm talking about that His dart throw. Ok, I might win you over here, trent, so be quiet. Nothing you could possibly win me over. I don't know If this is more like a local thing and like maybe.
Speaker 2:Knowing you're judging me while you're talking to me, you can't win me over the Ham and Swiss sliders.
Speaker 3:Oh, no, yeah, exactly. No, you're right.
Speaker 5:Suck on that man. Here's the thing.
Speaker 3:Here's the thing, trent, that was aggressively towards you too. That's good, and he's trying to win you.
Speaker 5:The way the turn tables. He's like that's good. He's like oh, that's good.
Speaker 2:I've said that like three times in other drafts. I said my Super Bowl food draft, so he's basically piggybacking off my pick.
Speaker 5:I could have took that.
Speaker 2:I could have took it in the first round, but yeah, what's the fun in taking the same thing every single draft?
Speaker 4:You always take chips and salsa.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I took chips and guac.
Speaker 3:The same thing you taking chips and guac, or chips and salsa. No one wants to hear the same stuff.
Speaker 2:We should make a rule If you draft one thing one time, you can't do it. Oh, I've already been playing by that rule.
Speaker 3:That's why I took the. I've been taking Ham and Swiss sliders. Take everyone else out, yeah.
Speaker 2:OK, well, yeah, Ham and Swiss sliders, those are great Seth Like yeah.
Speaker 3:Also, I love Seth, I love this guy.
Speaker 2:No, that's not his idea, though.
Speaker 3:No, no. The problem is, seth, is that he always comes up with a draft and then, halfway through, he's like well, I thought we were doing it by these rules and it's like you didn't say it at the beginning. Therefore, we're not going to play by those rules.
Speaker 5:Seth asked for the parameters. Same thing happened with the midnight snack. I asked the parameter and he goes oh, I don't know about that.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we did the same thing with the midnight snack draft and he was all cheesed off that we went with some places that were like drive-thru places, which I didn't understand.
Speaker 2:A cool story, man.
Speaker 1:OK yeah, recap this.
Speaker 2:Hey speaking of drafts, you know you got to get a trophy. We need a trophy just for our drafts on here. You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 5:We got a lot of food drafts. But so we should go to trophy and the last place where's a DUNTS hat? Yeah, dunts hat, we need to bring that back.

You still might have time to get it there before your big draft day. So recapping the first round I think Seth won.
Speaker 3:I think it goes Seth and then Jordan in that round.
Speaker 2:So chips and salsa. Jordan took wings, phil took buffalo chicken dip, seth took ham and Swiss sliders. Ok, so here I go. Come in here round two.
Speaker 3:We probably should have done an app. A main and a dessert that's what we should have done.
Speaker 2:You're right. You're absolutely right, Seth. Do you want to start playing like that right now? You want to start playing like that now?
Speaker 3:That's all right. I've lost my opportunity.
Speaker 2:I am going to say lasagna, get one of those Costco lasagnas.
Speaker 5:See, that is when lasagna makes me a little nervous. Why is?
Speaker 2:lasagna making nervous.
Speaker 5:Because some people make really good lasagna and some people's lasagna just tastes like dog food. I don't feel like I've had a bad lasagna. I've had a bad lasagna From who Can't say OK, lasagna is always good.
Speaker 2:Are you not a lasagna guy?
Speaker 4:I'm going to be honest. I kind of think that you can have really good homemade lasagna, like Seth said, or really bad homemade lasagna. The safest lasagna for a work party is probably like the Stofers out of the Costco.
Speaker 2:Yeah, or the Costco, or the Costco frozen. Yeah, those are great.
Speaker 4:The frozen. I think Stofers somewhere.
Speaker 3:I just had some good lasagna last week, that guy.
Speaker 4:Homemade lasagna can be really good, but the safe thing is like but a work potluck.
Speaker 2:Go get one of those frozen lasagnas at Costco. Throw it in the oven at work. It smells the whole place up. Nice, sweet Italian or homemade.
Speaker 3:You came over to my house a couple of times. My mom would make those on Thursday nights. Oh, those were so good, those were so good, yeah, you get some French bread.
Speaker 2:If you brought French bread to a potluck, that would be gone, I agree.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that'd be gone.
Speaker 3:You took lasagna.
Speaker 2:I took lasagna, but that's fine. Lasagna is good too. You show me a guy with a tray of lasagna. I'll show you a guy with a couple friends.
Speaker 3:OK.
Speaker 2:Why is that funny, seth? That's a fact, you can't argue with that.
Speaker 5:You like using these sayings. And you just plug in whatever keyword lasagna or you'd be like show me a guy who's got a cool trophy, smack trophy, and he'll be your friend.
Speaker 2:You got a lot of friends. No, it'd be a guy you'd want to be. That'd be somebody that you'd strive to be the same things.
Speaker 5:I just laugh.
Speaker 2:I love inside jokes. I'd love to be a part of one sometime.
Speaker 3:Jordan what are you taking here, tritz battling a battle on all fronts right now and he's not liking it.
Speaker 2:Having my back against the wall. It's not new, you know what I mean. Like I just got a. I can't say that.
Speaker 4:Jordan, you're up. I'm going to go um wait.
Speaker 5:It feels, strange, here's an idea.
Speaker 2:Don't interrupt other people's picks Seth.
Speaker 4:I'm going to go. Meatballs oh, that's good Meatballs.
Speaker 3:I'm just going to get that Seth. No, you're right If I just see a tray of meatballs.
Speaker 4:I'm just like no, no, no In the, in, like the. Uh, you get in like the crock pot. Yeah, and like in some barbecue, barbecue sauce meatballs.
Speaker 2:Toothpicks yeah.
Speaker 5:Yeah those are good Toothpicks, those are good. Oh, we're talking about small meatballs. Small meatballs, oh, we're talking about like big meatballs, like, oh, like, you know, like big meatballs like they have in pasta.
Speaker 1:Yes, we all are aware of it. Yeah, no one thought of that except for you. Ok, maybe it's just.
Speaker 2:Here's an idea Go get that seventh grade mind of yours and just get rid of it and just go.
Speaker 5:Ok, listen when I was in Hawaii, I went into a really nice Italian restaurant Apparently it's like a really nice place and in my lasagna or not lasagna in my pasta was big meatballs, like there's three big meatballs. They weren't small, they're like big ones.
Speaker 2:Guys, you're just, you know, flexing that he went to Hawaii. Like we forgot what I mean. Like you're still tan, you're still wearing pukashell necklaces everywhere you go, so driving your car.
Speaker 4:They want their necklace back so the small meatballs here, small meatballs and like a crock pot you can throw some barbecue sauce.
Speaker 3:Yeah, those are good Teriyaki Asian yeah those Asian ones are so good.
Speaker 2:Those little one of those little sausages, those are pretty good. Little smokies, little smokies yeah, those are good.
Speaker 3:Yeah, just fine, I'm going to go with. I'm just going to go with dip every single time and I'm going to some sort of dip and I'm going to see where I end up landing. I'm going to go with.
Speaker 1:Last.
Speaker 3:Peter and hummus.
Speaker 4:Okay.
Speaker 3:Why.
Speaker 1:Why.
Speaker 4:It's like you actively try to lose these drafts.
Speaker 3:I was on a streak there for a short second.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the streak is clearly over.
Speaker 5:It's like Phil's in a marathon and he ties his shoelaces together. Yeah.
Speaker 3:There's been some times where there's more recent potlucks I love going to. I trust all the people that I'm enjoying food with, but there have been potlucks before in the past, like way back in the day, where I've been like man, I don't, I'm just going to graze because I don't trust anything Do you guys get what I'm saying a little bit, so does that mean you still like eat the food and swallow it Right Like you're digesting the food? No, no, I'm saying like I only eat things that are packaged.
Speaker 2:Like if someone opens, that is such a sad, pathetic life, Live life.
Speaker 5:on the edge. You bum, you just graze, you know enjoy it.
Speaker 3:That's pathetic.
Speaker 2:You're only eating stuff in a package you don't like hummus, I do like hummus, but the fact that you went to a potluck and you admitted it and you're like, yeah, I'm only having that because it's a lunch bowl, so that's sealed that because it's chips.
Speaker 3:This like this lady slaved all night. I was going to say cold cuts next.
Speaker 2:Someone does a you know slaves away on a lasagna and you're like yeah, well, that wasn't packaged. I'm not eating it.
Speaker 3:That's my next one. That's my next one. All right, let's move on.
Speaker 2:Can we all agree that's a sad life to only eat stuff out of a package at a potluck?
Speaker 3:No, I said that was my younger years, my younger years I was not wise. Okay, I'm glad you've grown up.
Speaker 2:I've grown up now.
Speaker 3:No, I like to ride the ride. The risky wave Seth, what do?
Speaker 2:you take I'm going to hit guys over here passing secrets. That is immature. We should have a no secrets cause.
Speaker 3:They're being weird.
Speaker 5:I am going to take something that is gone at every single potluck. It is. I'm going to take my dessert. It's going to be gone every single time. Brownies See those, get cleared out.
Speaker 2:They do Brownies are gone Every time, every potluck. That is the only thing that I will look at and ask who made those? Wait, really, I'll say hey, who made the brownies? It's just, it's a sick world, it turns out, it's probably going to be a Ghirardelli one, most likely.
Speaker 4:Yeah, those are really good. The one in the boxes, they're actually really good. The.
Speaker 5:Ghirardelli triple chocolate, man that's normally I like homemade stuff.
Speaker 4:It's those Ghirardelli boxes. Yeah, dude, whipped cream, the whipped cream, I think I would just use these.
Speaker 2:guys Gives an X, pick is a 12 pack of cream.
Speaker 3:That's what we should do. It like a Christmas. You guys are judging the whipped cream without trying it. No, it's cream. When you get it, I'm not going to yeah, never mind. Thank you, Phil.
Speaker 2:No, it's a brownies. Do you eat the?
Speaker 3:tub whipped cream, or do you only the?
Speaker 2:canister.
Speaker 3:The cans way more fun.
Speaker 2:You got to get the pocket one I'm going to use the can of whipped cream for a trip. I love that noise. Recapping the second round, we got lasagna.
Speaker 3:Seth has not, oh Seth.
Speaker 2:Sorry, just follow with the draft for a minute here I'm struggling.
Speaker 3:It's late lasagna. I'm barely in the straps.
Speaker 2:Meatballs, pita, hummus and brownies. I might win this one. I don't think you are.
Speaker 3:I think you're going to take cold cuts.
Speaker 2:That's going to be my next one, guys. You know, with fancy football around the corner, we got DFS. And DFS doesn't just put. It's not only fancy football, they got all kinds of stuff on there. They did a hot dog eating competition on the 4th of July. Our favorite place for DFS is underdog. Go to underdog, enter dudes and they will match up to $100. Guys, really helps us out. It's just, it's best ball season. Draft it and forget it. No setting lineups, no trades, no waivers Best ball. It's a lot of fun. Great way to get ready for your fancy football draft. Go to underdog inter promo code dudes and they will match up to $100. Is it dudes or is it dudes 100? Dudes 100. Dudes 100. I'm so sorry.
Speaker 4:For underdog? I'm not sure. We should probably get that straightened out.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we'll figure that out, just try them both. Okay, it's dudes 100.
Speaker 3:Okay, go Jordan.
Speaker 2:No, it's me.
Speaker 3:Dude, oh, he fell, okay, go Trent.
Speaker 2:Here's the idea. Either host the show and figure out how to run it or keep your mouth shut. Go Trent.
Speaker 3:Put on your helmet, Phil.
Speaker 2:I'm going to go with puppy chow. Puppy chow is great.
Speaker 1:It's the ultimate grazing tool Are you talking about?
Speaker 2:puppy Chex mix puppy chow. I've said that before.
Speaker 5:It's a hard thing about puppy chow.
Speaker 2:Do you have a spoon for it or like? Or people just grab it and it's in there. I dip that red solo cup right in there and take out a whole.
Speaker 3:That's the move, trent. That's the move. That's the move, yeah.
Speaker 2:So yeah, puppy chow, red solo cup, I fill you up With some puppy chow. That was really lame, phil. They'll leave me hanging like that.
Speaker 3:That was a good song.
Speaker 2:I think there's something else here that I could have took. That's just as good, but I felt like I was piggybacking off of someone else. That's why I didn't do it. Jordan, what are you going with right here? No one hates puppy chow. Everyone likes puppy chow.
Speaker 3:No, puppy, chow is good.
Speaker 4:No, I love puppy chow. I'm going to go with something it's kind of a broad like. There's a lot of different ways you could do it. I'm going to go pasta salad Nice. There's a lot of different pasta salads out there, so I think that's sketchier than lasagna.
Speaker 3:I think pasta salad is sketchy. It may have been sitting in someone's car for the last three hours before the 12 PM hour, like it's just a sketch.
Speaker 2:Brownies is by far the most sketchy thing on this list Anything that you can have, you're right. Brownies today. I ask who made the brownies? You can't just eat brownies from any old anyone. You might have way too much fun at that potluck.
Speaker 3:Yeah, but hot mayo is a risk. I'd rather eat a contaminated brownie than spoiled mayo.
Speaker 2:No Spoiled mayo can ruin your next two days. Most people put their pasta salad in the salad and they bring it up Like I feel this is your young self is what I'm saying. What are you gonna say Jordan? No, I just I don't.
Speaker 4:I maybe I'm too trustworthy of people I don't know.
Speaker 2:Yeah, people bring like you can't question pasta salad and get people Do they do free pass on brownies, Do you like?
Speaker 4:so if it's like you know that it's a pasta salad from like the grocery store, like you'll eat it.
Speaker 3:I'll be honest with you I really don't like pasta salad that much Trent's wife makes a good pasta salad that I like, but other than that I don't eat a ton of pasta salad. I actually like all the kind of I like potato salad better.
Speaker 4:I was going back and forth between those two.
Speaker 2:I thought about potato salad, I think like the macaroni salad too.
Speaker 4:I really like that, like the cold, like who doesn't like pasta, though Like pasta's.
Speaker 2:on this thing, twice we got lasagna and pasta salad. We didn't do a recap weekend recap.
Speaker 3:But I went to this B&L, this, this, this. It's a meat shop in Fresno excuse me, vicelia and they have. They have a good pasta salad and potato salad Jordan and it's like four bucks for a nice container. Like most of their stuff is usually pretty expensive, but have you tried their sides there, trent? I have not tried the sides there. You have to you some must delicious.
Speaker 2:You had their tri-tip sandwich there.
Speaker 3:No, but they're. I've had their breakfast burritos and they're really good.
Speaker 2:I heard the tri-tip sandwich is really good too, phil. What are you taking here, now that you're, you know, stalling around here bashing pasta salad, artichoke dip yeah, artichoke dip, I want.
Speaker 3:I want artichoke dip is actually really good.
Speaker 1:I'm not going to take it Is your computer dead.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I'm just. I'm shooting from the hip today, baby. I I'm going with the Pretty low shot the. Oh my, oh my, I'm going to die the. The set is on one today. He might I'm not going to say it. He, what are those store bought sugar cookies? They were like you never, you never oh yes, you know what I'm talking about the frosting ones, the frosting ones. You know sugar house Someone yes, and someone always brings them and they're always gone and they're the lazy person. They're the lazy person.
Speaker 5:They're the lazy person. You're like ah, who brought these, but you're the one eating them.
Speaker 3:Correct. Yeah, yeah, Correct. Those are sugar house. I think it's that looks like it's it's like a soft sugar cookie with frosting.
Speaker 4:Correct. Yeah yeah, it's a loft house. Yeah yeah, loft house, loft house.
Speaker 2:Yeah, those things are, those are they're so good, they're so good, like what even is it?
Speaker 3:It's a sugar cookie with frosting.
Speaker 2:It's so good Sugar cookie with frosting and a little bit of just the right amount of sprinkles too.
Speaker 3:I will say I don't like sprinkles, but yes, I would agree with you Like they don't overdo it.
Speaker 4:Like they have a good amount, like there's some people that do a gross amount of sprinkles and there's a and there are things this prepackaging comes out on a like in a factory, like not a factory, but like that. I know people love crumble cookies.
Speaker 3:These cookies are better than those.
Speaker 4:I don't like crumble cookies. I'll be honest, I think I might agree with.
Speaker 3:Phil.
Speaker 2:I don't like crumble cookies. I don't mind them, but I don't know if these are better than the crumb are, especially when you incorporate how much you're paying for them.
Speaker 4:Yeah, yeah, I had a listen Looks like you're the outsider now.
Speaker 2:Hey.
Speaker 3:Steve, hey Steve messaged us.
Speaker 2:Okay, I messaged me, my brother or From Michigan. He said your midnight snacks pod inspired me to make a late night trip to crumble cookies.
Speaker 3:No, I don't like crumble cookies.
Speaker 2:I haven't had enough. I've had it like twice. I was like those are pretty good.
Speaker 4:I think they're bad. I think they're good, but you can't eat a whole-. Did you pay for it or someone else paid for it? Someone did, yeah.
Speaker 2:I think you know what you're doing when you go in there, right?
Speaker 4:No, yeah, but I can get like two things of those loft house cookies.
Speaker 2:Here's the thing I don't need two dozen cookies, so I probably should just go to-.
Speaker 3:You don't need to explain that to us.
Speaker 2:Go to crumble and get one cookie. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5:I don't need 12 cookies. It might be the same. It could be the same value as like Could be close.
Speaker 3:I would rather to be quite honest with you. If I'm choosing between the two, I'd probably just rather have a donut. So what's your pay?
Speaker 2:Yeah, but you can't have a donut late at night and donuts would have been a good deal for a potluck probably.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 5:KFC box. All right, my last pick of the draft. Another dessert that's always gone rice crispy treats.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, that's pretty good, seth.
Speaker 5:Load it up. Extra butter, extra marshmallows way better.
Speaker 2:Yeah, there's a lot of people who know how to make them.
Speaker 5:Always put more butter and more marshmallows than you think. Oh yeah, rice crispy it can never be too sticky.
Speaker 3:And if it's a brown butter, if you actually do the brown butter rice crisps, those are 10 times better.
Speaker 5:What's the dip, what's the brown butter do?
Speaker 3:It's you brown the butter, just make it a little bit longer, just give it a little bit of a different flavor profile. So good, you've never heard of that. You've never heard of that. I don't know. I think people are screaming in their cars right now that you've never heard of brown butter. Well, I just I've only seen white butter at the store. if I'm being completely honest, no no, you just cook it down a little bit longer. I mean, jordan, have you heard of that? No, I, you get it more. It's You're like, you're not toasting it.
Speaker 5:You leave it in the burner a little bit longer, correct? Yeah, yeah, it's nice yellow, it's more brown. Correct, yeah, it's a little bit browner, so you like it a little burnt.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I'll say that.
Speaker 2:To say Phil's words, not mine, just shooting from the hip, who won this draft? If you were to say right, now. Absolutely me. It's not Phil, so that's.
Speaker 3:I would say it's probably Jordan or Seth.
Speaker 4:Seth has a strong draft for people who like dessert, it's true.
Speaker 5:Most people like dessert. The problem is is when I go to a potluck and I see a lot of dessert, I might end up eating more dessert than like the other food. That sounds about right for you.
Speaker 3:I think that's most people. From what I know about you, that sounds about right.
Speaker 4:I like my draft quite a bit.
Speaker 2:What about like pizza, something that maybe got missed here?
Speaker 3:No.
Speaker 5:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I mean.
Speaker 3:You get a lot of little Caesar buys for this and I'm staying away from that.
Speaker 2:Here's the thing, though, phil you complain about the price of crumble cookies, but then you say that you don't like little Caesar's pizza. No, no, no, no, no. I'm not a problem with little Caesar's.
Speaker 3:You're a little Caesar's guy, I feel like I have no problem with little Caesar's, I'm not touching it out of, I'm not touching it out on a oh quick.
Speaker 4:I'm sorry At a Seth you.

Speaker 3:No, I'm cautioning you, do not say it.
Speaker 2:Have you ever been asked three times? No, seth.
Speaker 3:Yes, no, it's not that bad, no, no any time you have to convince yourself.
Speaker 5:I'm saying as soon as we end it, Okay that's fine.
Speaker 1:I'm already seeing it at the end.
Speaker 2:Yup, we'll say it. After the outro, we'll decide whether we want to keep it or not.
Speaker 5:Yes, okay, I'll say it after the outro.
Speaker 3:I've never seen someone more excited to have something to say after the end of the outro.
Speaker 5:Well, it kind of pairs into my last comment about.

Jordan had wings, meatballs, pasta salad, phil had buffalo chicken dip, pita and hummus, loft house cookies, seth had ham and Swiss sliders, brownies and rice crispy treats.
