Episode Overview

In this lively and laughter-filled episode, host Kat Toffoli, with guest co-host Tyler Toffoli (stepping in for Julie Petry, who is on family spring break), brings together San Jose Sharks rookies Will Smith and Macklin Celebrini for their much-anticipated joint podcast debut. With the NHL season winding down, the episode captures a fresh, behind-the-scenes look at the chaos, camaraderie, and unfiltered antics that define life as young players in the league—and surrogate “off-ice sons” to the podcast’s hosts. From broken windshields to pranks in luxury hotels, roommate shenanigans, near-disastrous spring breaks, and playful jabs at “elder statesman” Tyler, it's a humorous, honest, and endearing look at hockey life off the ice.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Spring Break Mayhem and “Hockey Wife” Chaos

(00:08 – 12:24)

• Julie is away on spring break, leaving Kat and Tyler to recap recent family and hockey escapades. Julie shares a comedic and somewhat stressful account of being at the last home game of the season:
  • She ends up in the team medical room for a precautionary EKG, only for her husband, Jeff Petry, to join her minutes later after taking a puck to the face.
  • The Petry kids steal the show at the game, particularly 2-year-old Blake, whose jersey-pumping antics have the production room “freaking out” and the whole arena roaring.
  • Julie reflects on the weirdness of “wife life” as her family simultaneously commandeers the medical room:

    "My husband…he's standing there spitting blood into the sink. And I'm like, what is happening right now?" – Julie (08:29)

• Julie and Kat discuss the finality and emotional roller coaster of the NHL season and balancing chaotic family moments with the unique perks (like instant doctor access) of NHL life.

2. WillMack Arrival: From Broken Windshields to Bunkbeds

(13:44 – 18:11)

• Will Smith and Macklin Celebrini (“WilMac”) join, with Tyler co-hosting; the two recount their day involving dental appointments and a disastrous trip to the PGA Superstore, which culminates in:
  • Macklin punching Will’s windshield out of frustration during an endless errand run.
  • A playful debate about the extent of the damage (“It looks like a rock hit it!” – Macklin, 16:35).
• The duo reflects on their unusual living arrangements:
  • Will boards with the Marleau family, Macklin with the Thornton family, both legendary San Jose figures. Most of their time is spent together at the Marleau residence, with plenty of mini-stick matches, TikTok videos, and “hockey dad” moments.

3. Generational Gaps and Team Banter

(18:11 – 22:49)

• Kat and Tyler rib the “rookies” about seeing Tyler as old, with Will and Macklin immediately confirming:
  • “Do you guys see Tyler as old?”
    “Yeah.” – Will (18:32)
    “Yeah.” – Macklin (18:32)
  • Tyler shares the moment Macklin revealed he attended Tyler's camp at age 12, making all feel ancient.
• Discussion about being placed on lines together, locker room arrangements, and the comedic test of Tyler’s patience as a vet.

4. From Frenemies to Friends: Building WilMac Chemistry

(20:36 – 21:43)

• Macklin admits they didn’t like each other at first, having played against one another in NCAA,
  • "I've always played against him. You don't really love the guys you're playing against, especially when they light you up." – Macklin (20:49)
• Their relationship changed at Sharks rookie camp, with Will noting Macklin opened up quickly.

5. Locker Room Antics: Soccer Balls, Sting Pong, and Pranks

(22:49 – 38:58)

• Endless tales of off-ice competition, from ping pong welts to “gauntlet” sports tournaments at the Marleau’s backyard.
• Debate about who is the better all-around athlete:
  • “Who's better in general at sports outside of hockey?”
    “Me. Well, he's better at golf because he grew up on a country club.” – Macklin (24:13)
    Will insists both his parents played soccer, sparking more ribbing.
• Origin story of the infamous “Sharkie” mascot incident (Will “booting” a soccer ball at him), and the viral story in Seattle where a drunk fan snuck into their sewer circle:

  “He just kind of invited himself into the circle.” – Will (26:58)

• Ongoing soccer hierarchy debates, with Macklin ranking Tyler “not even top eight.”

6. Rookie Season Mishaps: Public Snubs, Car Accidents, and Suit Conspiracies

(28:25 – 32:39)

• Kat brings up the infamous Warriors game, where Macklin gets a scoreboard shoutout and Will is left in the shadows:
  • “I'll give it to him. I mean his dad works there. Let him get the spotlight.” – Will (28:29)
• Macklin’s car is backed into by the Rangers team bus after a 6-1 loss:
  • Will and Macklin tally up their season vehicle mishaps—Will’s broken windshield and tail light, Macklin’s late license.
• The “suit conspiracy”: Fans think Will and Macklin are swapping suits to mess with people. Both deny it, though they admit to unintentionally matching styles.

7. Pranks, Sleepovers, and the Art of Not Growing Up

(32:52 – 38:50)

• The “sleepover game” leading to Macklin’s first NHL hat trick—and all three line mates scoring.
• Recaps of in-season pranks:
  • Mattress swapping, rooms tornadoed, and an elaborate ongoing payback saga with Deli.
• Sting pong battles, including photo evidence of bruises sent by equipment staff, and the near-mythical risk of escalating pranks:
  • “If we were pranking each other the whole year, it would get ugly. Like, wouldn't even be enjoyable.” – Macklin (37:21)

8. Favorite NHL Moments & Looking Ahead

(39:00 – 45:15)

• Reflections on the best and most memorable cities/arenas this season:
  • Chicago (for the anthem), Bell Centre, MSG, Minnesota.
  • Will: “I love that place [Bell Centre].” (39:45)

9. Quick Hits: Pop Culture, Food, and Off-Day Routines

(46:34 – 50:48)

• Favorite TV show: Prefer stand-up (Shane Gillis).
• Movie genres: Everything from John Wick to rom-coms (“Definitely, Maybe” is a favorite).
• Macklin hates scary movies; both prefer comedies/action.

• Favorite song: "Pony" by Ginuwine (Will tries, but ultimately refuses to sing lyrics).

On an episode together before summer hits because it was a little, you know, like we always wanted to get them on the pod, but then as this is the last, you know, week of season coming up, we. We noticed that they might not be able to be together, so. And their. Their allure is being together. So.

[Julie]

So I know. Yeah.

[Julie]

Well, he's gonna do great. He's at natural. We watch him. He gives us all the tips because he's always sitting in on the pod.

[Kat]

He does give us tips, which is very funny. So spring break. You of all people have earned a spring break.

[Julie]

Yeah, well, I wish I earned a solo adult Spring break would be better.

[Kat]

But it's still brave. They're still break in the terms.

[Julie]

Still breaking. And I'm breaking with my husband. So I have a teammate, I have a co parent and it's all fantastic and get to enjoy some family time down in Texas. We. We don't always get to get down there all together. So it's. It's really fun and just crazy. We've wrapped up another season and here we are. Like, I. It's gonna. I'm gonna have to start thinking of things for Jeff to do around here.

[Kat]

Well, but you wrapped up the season. But it was an eventful last game. So you were texting me. I kind of wish you were just like posting live for people to see

[Julie]

your night of the last game all happening too fast. So our last home game was last Monday versus Dallas in Detroit. And I took all the boys. I typically don't take them on a weeknight game because that's just a lot. But being that it was last home game, you know, had to go all out anyways, I'm majority of the game. Like so many things happened at this game, but the majority of the game I'm like chasing Blake around. He's my 2 year old and just hilarious. But not because I'm like, oh, I really wanted to watch, you know, a little bit of this game. Unlike Kat, I like to watch some of the games.

[Kat]

Yeah, you actually like to watch. I have all the time in the world to watch. You actually like, too. And you.

[Julie]

I actually wish Kat was here, because she would walk the concourse with Blake. No problem.

[Kat]

Yeah, that would have been fun.

[Julie]

Anyways, I finally get him wrangled during the second period.

[Jeff]

And.

[Julie]

And by wrangled, I mean I sit on the aisle. We have the same seats. I sit on an aisle, which I love. Um, but he found. He found a fun spot right there. Just right in the aisle and kept going under the bar.

[Kat]

Oh, yeah. Like, up and down the bars, right?

[Julie]

Yeah. Very dangerous, though. Fun, fun.

[Kat]

We all did it.

[Julie]

Yeah. LCA stairs are very steep, but, you know, I'm doing, like, the mom, like, stick my arm out, you know, car seat hold or, you know, seatbelt hold. Anyways, the cameraman comes down our aisle, and I'm like, oh, and Boyd, my oldest, is with me, so I've got the two bookends with me. And Boyd knows what to do. Every he sees his cameraman, he's like, pump the jersey up. You know, does it real quick.

[Kat]

Professional.

[Julie]

Yeah, he's a seasoned vet. Oh, speaking of, here's. Here's one of one of the guests.

[Kat]

Another cameo. What was the question?

[Julie]

Can I actually sleep on a palette? I'm letting them sleep in my room tonight. You know, spring break, guys.

[Kat]

It'll. Spring break. Sleepovers. The sleepovers. What a theme.

[Julie]

We love sleepovers. Never outside. Just being a really awesome mom.

[Kat]

Okay, so, yeah, he's in the aisle.

[Julie]

Boyd starts it off, like. And this is full on. Starts it off. It's just one of those quick hits that they do in between, like, puck drops. So it's like. And then Blake gets on the screen. They pan to him, and he turned it on. You guys. Like, this kid pumped his jersey where his belly was showing, which then. Okay. Cute, adorable. The whole crowd starts cheering, but then it turns into being, like. They pan off of him, and the crowd gets quiet. And then they pan back on him, and the crowd starts roaring again. And then he starts roaring, and he's, like, watching his face, so he's getting more excited. It was hilarious. We will like the whole thing.

[Kat]

He got a taste of the fame.

[Julie]

Oh, he saw it and he lit it up. The. The guy with the headset, he comes up to me, and he's like, our production room is freaking out right now. This kid's a star. Anyways, that was that. But Also at the same time, everybody's like, what is Jeff doing on the ice? Like, watching. Like, is he watching this? Typically he doesn't, like, pay attention to the scoreboard and things like that.

[Kat]

Yeah.

[Julie]

But after the game, I was like, did you see Blakey? And he's like, did I see Blakey? He's like, the whole team is, like, elbowing me down the. Down the bench.

[Kat]

Like, we need that video. We need that video of Jeff looking up and laughing.

[Julie]

Oh, they. He said they were all howling. And it's like, you look at Blake and you can't not smile when you look at him. And he put on a show. So that was really cute and fun. That was my fun, light hearted moment of the game.

[Kat]

Yep.

[Julie]

And then I had another story.

[Kat]

Yeah, this is. This is the text. I got that really. When things took a turn.

[Julie]

This is when things took a turn. So long story short, I haven't been feeling my best as of late. I am fine. That. Let's start with that. I am fine, but I did need to get some things checked out, specifically with my heart. And I was debating on, like, going into, like, the hospital or the urgent care just to get, like, my own test run. But being a busy mom and getting prepared for spring break and all the things coming up, I'm like, no time for that.

[Kat]

You know, lots going on.

[Julie]

So my mom is with me at the game and she's like, julie, like, this is ridiculous. And then, like, we're talking in our. Our team service lady standing there, and they're like, why don't you just go down and see the team doctor?

[Kat]

The great doctors just go down.

[Julie]

And we've had to do that in Montreal to see a kid during the game. You know, things like that. In. In a pinch, we have that amazing resource. And I just. I kind of forget about it. So, long story long, they. They take me down to the. The little, like, examination room at the end of the second intermission, and they get me all, like, they do all my blood pressure, all this stuff, and they. They hook me up to an EKG just real quick.

[Kat]

And that's the photo I get. I just get a photo. A selfie on the table.

[Julie]

Yeah. So I'm laying there, I'm laying there, and this room is the room, like, right off the ice that if anything happens to a player during the game, this is where they run off the bench, like, straight to this room. It opens up, and then every, like, Dr. Med, every medical staff, trainer comes in this room to, like, check out the player, get him back on the ice as fast as they can.

[Kat]

Yep.

[Julie]

So they are, like, the EKG is, like, finishing up, and all of a sudden the door opens up. It's like, code red. You know, when something happens. The third period has started, and. Oh, yeah. And they're like, oh, wait, wait, wait. Like, you know, giving me privacy. But then it's like, no big man with a red jersey runs in the room. And I'm like, oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Like, what? Like, what's happened? I don't know what's happening. And I.

[Kat]

Who is it?

[Julie]

He a 46. And I'm like, oh, my God. My husband. Something has happened to my husband. He's in the medical room. I'm on the gurney. He's standing there spitting blood into the sink. And I'm like, what is happening right now? And he, like, turns around. The doctors are, like, checking out. He got a puck to the face. Long story. Getting to the point. A puck to the face splits his lip open. He's got to get stitches. So he's sitting in the dental chair. I'm sitting. I'm laying on the gurney, getting the. The leads taken off my chest.

[Kat]

The Petri family is just in shams.

[Julie]

And then once they finally realize, like, he's got all of his teeth, he just needs a couple stitches, I, like, look back at him, and I'm trying to, like. I'm trying to go invisible at this point, you know, Like, I'm like, what? What am I doing here? And they're like, you're fine. You're fine. Your EKG actually looks really good. You're good to go. And then they're like, be on your way. And I like, as I'm walking out, I'm, like, trying. And I go. I'm like, puck or a stick? And he's like, puck? And I'm like, are you okay? And he's like, yeah, I'm good. I'm like, all right. And he's like, are you okay? And I'm like, yeah, I'm good. And he's like, all right. I just left. See, at that point.

[Kat]

At that point, I would have been like, so about the spring break that we're going on, can we just, like, drop the kids off with, well, mother in law.

[Julie]

Everybody was laughing, like, after the fact. Like, the. The massage therapist was kind of taking care of me after the fact, like, getting all the leads taken off me. And she was like, so sweet. Because I was freaking out, because I was like, yes, I have no business being in here, like, so thankful that I had this, like, done. And, like, I can not worry anymore. But then what are the odds that my husband gets it? And I'm like, well, I guess it was better than it was that it was my husband and not some guy on the team is like, what the f is? Well, why doing. And the total.

[Kat]

That would be. That would be mortifying. Well, you know, we don't like, normal here at Never offside. So I feel like it was just, you know, what. What a finale.

[Julie]

What a finale. Like, we were.

[Kat]

We.

[Julie]

He came up after. He's like. He just is like, what's going on? Like, are you okay? And I'm like, yeah, I'm fine. And, like, all of his teammates, like, by that point, news had spread after the game, and everybody's coming to check on me, and I'm like, no, I'm good. I'm fine. But it was just really funny anyways, and.

[Kat]

Well, I'm glad you both are okay. I still think maybe you should just, like, go on an adult vacation instead.

[Julie]

Yeah. So just the. The funny thing is, is when I was walking away, like, my chest really tightened up after that, and I was like, it's. It's the stress of, like, I just got stressed seeing Jeff and, like, her, and I'm like, it's just the stress, I think. So anyways, I'm gonna manifest a real vacation after spring break, but just hilarious. And you can't make it up.

[Kat]

Comedy of errors. So that's. That's the unhinged part of hockey life sometimes. Especially with pucks flying at their faces. You know, it's weird. It's a weird thing to happen at work. So. So, yeah, speaking of your kids and everything, you know, Will and Mac, they're close to age and to your kids,

[Julie]

so, yeah, that's actually so wild. I was. I was doing the math, and it is always hilarious when, you know, a veteran's kids are closer in age to players on the team than they are to the actual veteran. So super excited for this conversation. Or I don't even know. With Will Mack.

[Kat]

Giggle fest, whatever.

[Julie]

Just silliness all around with. With you, with Kat Tyler and Will Smith and Macklin Celebrini. That's up next.

[Kat]

Welcome back to Never Offside. As we discussed, Julie is on vacation this week, so I had to call on a special guest host. So welcome Tyler. You are, you're. You're ready to go?

[Tyler]

Officially got the call. Got some big shoes to fill here with Julie gone, obviously, but I got two of my teammates wrangled up here and obviously a lot of fans have been dying to get them on the show. So I'll introduce them obviously with Will and, uh, Macklin. What's up boys?

[Will Smith]

What's up? What's up? Thanks for having us.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, we appreciate it.

[Tyler]

You guys, uh, you guys are a little late. Obviously you kind of filled me in briefly but didn't give me the. The full rundown. What happened there at. After the PGA store?

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah. You want to talk?

[Will Smith]

Well, it was a long day because Mac had to go fix his tooth. And then we met for breakfast, a late breakfast. And then I was like, all right, let's go to the PGA Superstore. Because I had to return a putter and get a different club, which that

[Tyler]

didn't work, by the way.

[Macklin Celebrini]

The way he said it, he was like, okay, let's go to the PJ Superstore real quick. We're gonna. I'm just gonna switch this real quick and we're just gonna go to Coochie's thing, then hang out after. I was like, perfect, I'll just hop in with you then.

[Will Smith]

Not what happened. I said, hey, want to go back to my house and chill out and hang out? He goes, no, let's go do something. Alright, I gotta return my putter. So then we did that, but then we had to go to Cooch's press conference. So we went there and then. So after that I was like, all right, let's go finish. Finish this up at the Superstore. So he was like, no, no, I don't want to go. Blah, blah. He's all in a bad mood. So then I was like, all right, I'll run in quick. So I got my two clubs. And then I was like, okay, but I want that. I need some new grips, too, on the clubs. So I got. He's all freaking pissed in the car, so we're pulling out, and he punches my windshield. And there's a freaking massive circle in my windshield.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Okay.

[Tyler]

I mean, you're known to do a couple. He's known to spaz out a little bit.

[Will Smith]

You think we've been.

[Macklin Celebrini]

I. I don't have my car. He says, let's go to PJ Superstore real quick. We end up going back there after Cooches thing. He's like, I'll be five minutes. It's 10 minutes away. I'll be five minutes, and we'll head home. Then he gets his clubs regripped. He's like, no, no. It's just gonna be like, 25 minutes. Let's go grab Chipper.

[Will Smith]

Like, man, four o'.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Clock. I want to go home. Like, I want to go chill.

[Tyler]

And then he for sure wanted you to buy it.

[Macklin Celebrini]

He's like, we're gonna go chipper.

[Will Smith]

And then we're gonna. We're gonna go.

[Macklin Celebrini]

So then I. I went like this. It's an unsafe shit.

[Will Smith]

He went like that to my windshield. And then he didn't even say sorry. He didn't even say sorry. He goes, why would I say sorry? I'm gonna pay for it.

[Kat]

So what's the state of the windshield right now? Like, what does it look like?

[Macklin Celebrini]

It looks like a rock.

[Will Smith]

No, there's a massive circuit.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Oh, my God. He's just exaggerating. It's insane. It looks like a rock hit it, and it just, like, spread a little bit. Like, that's exactly what it looks like.

[Kat]

So it has to go into the shop.

[Will Smith]

Definitely.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Oh, my God. Yeah. He could drive with it for a year and a half. He'd be fine.

[Will Smith]

No, not true.

[Kat]

And our hands.

[Jason Demers]

Okay.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, I barely touched the windshield.

[Kat]

All right, so where are we right now?

[Will Smith]

We're at the Marlow residence where I live.

[Kat]

So for people listening that haven't heard this story, can you guys just explain your very unique living situation this past season?

[Will Smith]

Yeah. So we were pretty lucky that both the Marlows and the Thorntons are still around in San Jose. So I'm living with the Marlow family and they're in their guest house and Max living with the Thorin family. So it's pretty cool that we get to still be in the NHL, but also got to be with the family aspect of it.

[Tyler]

So where do you guys spend most of your time? Is it at your place or at. We're at Jumbo's place.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Well, if you don't, we're with you.

[Tyler]

What? Okay, okay. In the bunk beds.

[Will Smith]

Yeah, no, we spent. I don't know, probably here.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, most of the time here. Probably.

[Tyler]

So then you guys are just playing mini sticks with Patty's kids.

[Will Smith]

Shot that Tick Tock video though, at the Thorntons.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

When you guys are doing the. The basketball one.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

That was over, what, Christmas, right?

[Will Smith]

Yeah, yeah, it was like right before I posted on Christmas.

[Kat]

Okay, so those are like your hockey dads. But I'm sure you've seen the ongoing joke that we're your parents. And you know, I saw some signs recently I think you saw on the ice. I forget where that was. But all that, you know, in reflecting on that, it just led me to one question that I have for you too. Do you guys see Tyler as old?

[Will Smith]

Yeah.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Jeff]

Okay.

[Will Smith]

Back ass task played against the North Stars.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I told. I just told Kat that and she was like, I don't even know what the North Stars are. And then I googled it. They went to Dallas in 1993.

[Will Smith]

Yeah, you're rookie.

[Tyler]

Just outrageous.

[Jeff]

It was a funny joke. It was funny.

[Tyler]

I mean, that one was actually funny. The other one that like kind of dug deep was when you're saying about my goal celebrations and you're like, oh, yeah. Ever since I was a little kid, me and my buddy used to talk about your cellies all the time. And I'm like, this is so great.

[Jeff]

How about when you.

[Tyler]

You can't be saying that.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Four years ago when I was like 12, you were.

[Jeff]

I ca. Camp and you're. And you talk.

[Tyler]

That's right. That was what it was with Burrs, right? Yeah, I was with. I was with Burge and. And I think. I think Kat, you were. You might have been there too, but I don't think you were in it. But yeah, Mac 12. Mac was at the camp.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

And it was. It took you a little while to. To bring that up and tell me

[Macklin Celebrini]

though, because, well, you're the easiest guy to talk to.

[Will Smith]

So sometimes you get mad.

[Tyler]

Pretty sure. Well, I get mad because you guys are annoying me.

[Jeff]

Sometimes you look at me and go, shut up.

[Tyler]

Well, I had to ask didn't you guys notice last game, Johnny didn't put me in the middle. You two, maybe the last two. Because I finally. I was finally fed up with Johnny, and then he. He set me up.

[Macklin Celebrini]

So you actually, like, asked not to sit with us?

[Tyler]

I did.

[Will Smith]

So we play good in Minnesota and then you split it up.

[Tyler]

Okay, well, I mean, I guess that's the selfish part. The selfish part of me, because it's just. I couldn't do it anymore.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, I mean, it's kind of got yours.

[Kat]

I was gonna say. How excited were you guys when you guys all got put together?

[Will Smith]

Well, it's been like that the whole year. So then when we're not together, it's kind of unexpected.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Will Smith]

The one city I was like too over from you, and I was like, what's going on?

[Kat]

So you two are always together. Obviously, you can't open Instagram or Twitter without seeing that. But, Mac, recently you said that you used to not like each other. Right. So when did this shift happen?

[Macklin Celebrini]

I mean, it's like anytime you play against someone for so long, you kind of build like a rivalry or whatever. Like, I played against them when I was at Bastille. He was at the National Development Program. I was at bu, he was at bc. Like, I've always played against them. And you don't really love the guys you're playing against, especially when they light you up. So.

[Kat]

So when did you give in?

[Tyler]

It's not like he was ever hitting you.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, it's not like he plays physical or anything.

[Tyler]

No, the opposite.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Not your game.

[Will Smith]

No, we legit ran bu show.

[Macklin Celebrini]

I'd be a 62 in the hockey's final, so. No, but I mean, I think once we get to know each other, like we met at rookie camp in the summer and then got to know each other a little bit.

[Will Smith]

I think he was all quiet at the start, and then I. Then I hope he got. He opened up real quick.

[Tyler]

Oh, yeah. Weird, because you were probably talking. You probably couldn't get anything else.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Dude, shut up.

[Kat]

How is it with all the attention that you guys get together? Like, do you guys, like, feed off each other when it comes to just the social media? People at the Sharks are all. All over you guys. So, like, how is that together?

[Will Smith]

I think it's good. But I mean, we're like. I mean, there's obviously a lot of videos of us, like, even before games, but, like, that's actually like what we're like even when the cameras aren't on, so.

[Tyler]

Yeah, well, yeah. Where. Where were we when we had those connecting rooms two games ago.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Calgary.

[Tyler]

Yeah, Calgary. So we had legit connecting doors. So we had them open and then I had to keep closing mine because I was scared that they were going to come in, just bombard my room. So like they kept theirs open. So every once, every what, 20, 30 minutes, I'd open mine, sneak over there for a little bit. And then game day, I'm trying to take a nap and they're legit playing like 1v1, like basketball. I can hear them screaming at each other. My entire nap I had to call them, be like, hey guys, like just, just like be quiet a little bit. I'm just. All you hear is them like in a chokehold or something. Ridiculous.

[Will Smith]

Yeah, but you scored your 30th.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, no worries.

[Tyler]

That's all you.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Apple.

[Tyler]

When you guys are obviously at home and away from the rink, what other thing sports do you guys play? Obviously. I know, but for the listeners, I mean, I know that we've golfed together a few times, but what else are you guys doing?

[Will Smith]

The one day we did like, have you ever seen that like barstool, like gauntlet challenge they do at the office?

[Tyler]

Yeah. With the cornhole and then the soccer and all that.

[Will Smith]

We did that in the Marlo's backyard one day with like.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Oh, yeah. Because he has the. He has the basketball court. Right.

[Macklin Celebrini]

We legit did it for three hours.

[Tyler]

Yeah. So what was your guys times?

[Will Smith]

Well, we did like you had to make three, two hockey shots, football throw, basketball, golf, and then wiffle ball. So we'd get like a minute, I think, right?

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, I got like 45. You got like a minute and a

[Julie]

half

[Will Smith]

Beat him though.

[Tyler]

I want that one.

[Kat]

Okay. Who's better in general at sports outside of hockey?

[Macklin Celebrini]

Me. Well, he's better at golf because he grew up on a country club.

[Will Smith]

That's not true. So

[Macklin Celebrini]

I'm better at golf.

[Tyler]

I mean, I would say Max better at soccer, though. Smitty has like the one power kick

[Will Smith]

right up Billy's feet. That's like the only thing he has in sewer. We haven't played actual soccer.

[Tyler]

I mean, there's. You can tell. You can tell when someone has it and when someone does.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, you can tell.

[Tyler]

And Mac has the jeans.

[Macklin Celebrini]

I have the jeans.

[Will Smith]

No.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Will Smith]

Both my parents played soccer. He. He plays the same style as me and sewer. What?

[Tyler]

No, he. He has a little tooth touch game to him.

[Will Smith]

Well, I like putting guys and I like throwing burgers.

[Tyler]

What's. I was late in Vancouver coming to the soccer game.

[Jeff]

What?

[Tyler]

What was it that happened again? Was it Lily got smoked in the face and then.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, how about this guy? It goes up like he.

[Tyler]

You were crying.

[Jeff]

It's all over. As usual.

[Macklin Celebrini]

It comes to him. He boots it at Lily's face. Like, boots it right at his face, gets Lily out. Next time it goes up, I'm about to catch the ball. It's. And like. Because it's like the end of the round, Goody boots went at my face.

[Jeff]

And then Smitty goes. He goes, oh, yeah. That might have been harder than the one I.

[Tyler]

So what. What was. What was harder? One of those kicks or the kick that you booted Sharky with?

[Will Smith]

Oh, Sharky. I tried. Like, he might have a concussion. Still.

[Kat]

That was crazy. Like, did you know how hard you kicked that ball?

[Will Smith]

Well, like I said, as hard as I can. He goes, yeah. So. All right, this is my chance.

[Kat]

Well, you have a love hate relationship with Sharkey.

[Will Smith]

Yeah. Let's not bring it up.

[Kat]

You guys are always beating him up a little bit, so it's pretty funny. But yeah, the soccer. You guys have had some crazy things this whole season with, like, the soccer ball. Like, even what happened in Seattle with that fan that snuck in and he was hammered.

[Macklin Celebrini]

This guy was hammered. He was playing sewer with us.

[Kat]

Did you know it was a random fan?

[Will Smith]

His jersey said like zero days sober. Yeah, but I misread it, so I thought he was like, on like sobriety train or something.

[Macklin Celebrini]

And then. Because it said day sober and then it was like it was a double zero. Yeah, like, I remember.

[Kat]

So when. When did you find out that it was just a random fan that snuck in that came?

[Macklin Celebrini]

We knew he was a random fan because he just came out of nowher

[Will Smith]

and he came out of the bathroom.

[Macklin Celebrini]

I think he was hammered, like, slurring his words.

[Kat]

Did you ask him how he got in there?

[Will Smith]

No, he just kind of invited himself into the circle.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Insane.

[Kat]

And you just didn't care. You're like, let's play, like, whatever.

[Will Smith]

Well, usually we let some people get a kick, but then sometimes people overstay and they're welcome.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Kat]

How's Ty at soccer Brutes?

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, he's brutal.

[Tyler]

Okay. Hey. They're laughing because I'm for sure top four on the team when he's one. When he's won for sure.

[Macklin Celebrini]

You're not. You're not top eight. We're not.

[Will Smith]

We can't get into this.

[Macklin Celebrini]

You're not even top eight. All this are better than you. I'm better.

[Will Smith]

You just get the calls because You're a vet.

[Tyler]

Eki is not better than me.

[Macklin Celebrini]

No, Ecky's brutal. He gets out, he's terrible.

[Tyler]

He's borderline. Not even Swedish, but he's playing okay.

[Kat]

So there have been like some. This whole season's been really funny as you guys's first NHL season. Obviously not the best with the Sharks record, but just like the crazy funny things like this that have just happened all season long, it's just been like quite ridiculous. So yeah, obviously all that soccer stuff, but we had, we had some other things that came up that we kind of wanted to ask you about. When you guys went to that warriors game and they showed both of you on the screen. Macklin. Yeah. Sorry, Will. Mac, they. They introduced Macklin. But Will, you didn't get introduced. So out of 1 to 10, how'd you feel for that?

[Will Smith]

We're really bringing this up.

[Kat]

Yep.

[Will Smith]

Now I'll give it him. I'll give it to him. I mean his dad works there. Let him get the, you know, the spotlight.

[Kat]

Were you dying after? Were you making fun of him?

[Will Smith]

Like we showed up late, I think or something, I don't know. Then the lady comes up like the media person or whatever and said, oh, you're going to Jumbo. I was like, well, should I get out of this real quick or something. I didn't know what was going on. And the next thing you know, we're up. It was up there and I was

[Macklin Celebrini]

like, oh, I think what happened was I told my dad, hey, can I get a couple tickets for tonight? I'm gonna come to the game. And then he got me the tickets because. And then like there's some. It got like around their PR people that like I was gonna be there but they didn't know who I was coming with. So then we were staying down there, did in the first quarter and I got a shout out and he didn't.

[Tyler]

I think that's a. That's crazy. That is wild.

[Kat]

I thought enough time would pass that you. You'd be laughing now, Will.

[Will Smith]

Well, we went back and they got Jumbo and River, so.

[Kat]

Alright, so another funny thing that happened to Macklin was obviously a couple weeks ago, the Rangers bus backing into your car. Will, what was your reaction to that?

[Will Smith]

Well, I didn't know what was going on cuz I saw him like standing on his phone and then I was like, what's he doing? He's in an all pissy mood or something. We were going somewhere and they.

[Macklin Celebrini]

We just lost six one.

[Tyler]

I think we were going to la. Going to la.

[Macklin Celebrini]

La. And we just lost six, one.

[Will Smith]

Well, you're like, yo, you hit my car. I'm like, who? He's like, the bus driver. He's standing right there. And then I was like.

[Kat]

And, like, all the fans were, like, standing right there, too.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Right?

[Tyler]

There were so many fans. That game, too.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, yeah. It was sold out.

[Tyler]

Whose vehicle do you think got more damage, obviously, with the windshield getting broken today, apparently. And then, Will, I know you've accidentally bumped into a couple things.

[Will Smith]

Gate at the rink, backed into a

[Macklin Celebrini]

couple poles,

[Will Smith]

broke a windshield, broke a tail light.

[Macklin Celebrini]

You broke a windshield, you broke a tail light.

[Tyler]

Yeah, they just got their licenses. They just got old enough.

[Kat]

Oh, yeah, Mac, didn't you get yours? Like, a couple.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Whole tariff thing. I don't know.

[Will Smith]

He always says this, though. Remember he said that at lunch the other day.

[Tyler]

This is ridiculous.

[Will Smith]

Stupid comment.

[Kat]

Like, you're blaming not having a license.

[Will Smith]

I think he was serious.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Oh, my. You guys don't know how to take a joke. I don't think.

[Kat]

Sometimes I forget that you're Canadian, Mac.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Tyler]

He's, like, kind of a trader, though. He. He went to VU. He went to play in the USHL.

[Macklin Celebrini]

You played in LA for 100 years.

[Tyler]

I've fully committed that I'm a trader working on the green card.

[Macklin Celebrini]

All right, that's insane.

[Will Smith]

There we go. There we go.

[Kat]

Been married for how many years? Like, almost seven or something. And he's finally doing it, so.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Kat]

Okay, something else I'm obsessed with this season. I don't know if you guys have seen this, but there's this whole fan conspiracy about you two and your suits, so. Have you seen that?

[Will Smith]

No.

[Macklin Celebrini]

What's that?

[Kat]

Okay, so you guys have those suits. I think they're like, you have the teal one and you have the gray one, and they're kind of similar. They're, like, checkered almost. There's a fan conspiracy that you guys randomly swap those every once in a while to mess with people.

[Will Smith]

We swap each other's suits?

[Tyler]

No, that'd be gross.

[Kat]

Well, we have to debunk the conspiracy, so I guess you just did, which is very upsetting.

[Will Smith]

We both have teal ones and we both have gray ones.

[Kat]

Oh, so you have matching ones?

[Macklin Celebrini]

No, we didn't like them.

[Will Smith]

Yeah, they're different. They just look alike.

[Kat]

Okay, so that's probably where this can speak.

[Will Smith]

A lot of times we show up and we're wearing the same one. We didn't talk about.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, we didn't really talk about it.

[Tyler]

You for sure, like, hey, I'm gonna wear this one today.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Hey, I'm wearing this one. You have to wear, too.

[Kat]

All right. Well, that's. That's funny. I was actually gonna see if I could find pictures of you swapping or whatever, but I guess you just have the same. Same style, so there you go.

[Will Smith]

How would we do that?

[Kat]

I don't know. Just to mess with people. You guys are funny and weird, so, like, it kind of makes sense. Seems like something you two would do.

[Will Smith]

Like, seems like something we would do.

[Kat]

Well, guess what? You have one more game tomorrow, so. So, yeah. Also, obviously, the sleepover, everyone talked about it a billion times over, but congrats, Mac, on your first NHL hat trick. Obviously, my DMs blew up because then you all scored as well, so everyone was asking.

[Will Smith]

I didn't think about that.

[Kat]

Well, I get. I get the DMs. Whenever you three move, I get a DM. So, honestly, that's. That happened after that. So that's what everyone was wondering was, was there a conversation of how to celebrate that night? So.

[Will Smith]

Well, we lost eight to seven, so we weren't.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I feel like that was. Everyone was in such a weird mood because I didn't think about it for sure.

[Macklin Celebrini]

That didn't even feel like a hockey game. That felt like three on three. It was insane.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Which is crazy. And then I think that's one of, if not Flurry's last game, too, in the regular season that he was gonna start. So Max has ruined his. Ruined his last NHL start in the NHL.

[Kat]

We just had his wife on last episode, and I wasn't gonna bring up that game. And she brought it up. Start you guys up.

[Macklin Celebrini]

What'd she say?

[Kat]

Well, she. She was just talking about how, like, special the game was with, like, the kids before. Before on the ice with him. And then she's like. And then I realized the things I won't miss. It was basically you three, you know, lighting them up.

[Macklin Celebrini]

So I asked for one of his sticks because it was like, his last game or whatever. Top said he had never gotten one of his sticks. And I was praying that he sent one over. Just.

[Tyler]

I was gonna be so. Because I saw one. I saw one in. In the equipment room, but I think he gave it to the rooster or something. Yeah, but I saw it. I'm like, if that's going to Mac, I'm gonna saw it in half.

[Kat]

Well, yeah, Back to the age thing. That was like, the whole game was them just comparing you guys ages and stuff. So pretty funny. But just one More thing with the sleepover. Well, the one thing that I really stuck out when Ty was telling me the story was you trying to take the King mattress into your room from Chai's room. What was like, the end game, gonna be there.

[Will Smith]

Well, we've done that before. To Deli. He put his mattress in the shower

[Kat]

this season.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Oh, yeah.

[Tyler]

Has he got you guys back yet for doing that, by the way?

[Will Smith]

What do you mean? He started it?

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, he did start it.

[Tyler]

Yeah, but you guys kind of took it.

[Kat]

Wait, go back. Explain. What's this ongoing prank with Deli.

[Tyler]

Deli pranked them earlier in the year.

[Jeff]

Oh, no.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Throughout year.

[Tyler]

Throughout the year. That I wish we could talk about, but we can't. We can't talk about it.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Will Smith]

We eventually found.

[Tyler]

We found out that it was Delhi, and then they got him back, put his mattress in the shower, just, like, tornadoed his room pretty much.

[Kat]

Okay. And you guys stay at some pretty nice hotels.

[Will Smith]

This is actually in Calgary, too.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, this was in Calgary.

[Will Smith]

He acted like nothing happened.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, it was kind of weird.

[Will Smith]

Yeah. We're scared because we knew get you

[Tyler]

back in, like, 10 years. In, like 10 years, something's gonna happen to you guys.

[Will Smith]

Delhi, back to what we did. Where Nothing. You were at the dinner when we were coming up with ideas.

[Macklin Celebrini]

We were talking about stealing his truck.

[Tyler]

And. And I was with you at breakfast, too.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, that was a little awkward. I don't think he knew it was us. I think we confessed to it.

[Kat]

Is this, like. Is he gonna find out?

[Will Smith]

We were just like, hey, talk. Did he say anything to you? Did he say anything to you? Because, like, we knew he was gonna call someone immediately when he walked in his room.

[Tyler]

I think he faced. Yeah, he FaceTimed me and. Me and Connie, maybe that night. Yeah, but, like, he knew it was you guys. Like, there was. There really wasn't any other. Any other culprit. Unless, like, actually would have been funny if, like, I did it and then just blamed it on you guys. You know what I mean?

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Kat]

Have you guys pranked each other?

[Will Smith]

No.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Like, us, too.

[Will Smith]

People were just ganging up on someone.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Kat]

You guys are partners or not. You don't go against each other just yet.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, I mean, we mess with each other, but it's not like, anything. Because if we were pranking each other the whole year, that'd be.

[Will Smith]

It would get ugly. It would get ugly.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Like, wouldn't even be enjoyable.

[Tyler]

Like, someone's car would get blown up or something. Who did that?

[Macklin Celebrini]

No windshield, no windows, no roof, no wheels. Like, would be a mess.

[Kat]

I mean, you've got all the time in the world to make that eventually a thing. So I feel like that's funny because that also reminds me of something Ty told me that you guys do in playing sting pong against each other.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, we do that.

[Will Smith]

Yeah, we do.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Kat]

Explain.

[Tyler]

I remember the. The one we had the day off, the one day, and one of our equipment guys, literally out of nowhere just sends me a photo of the two of them and their backs and the welts that they had on their backs. Like, I would have been on the IR if I had dwelt like that sometimes.

[Will Smith]

How long did the bruises blast music and just play and then, like, if you're in, some guys will like, the equipment staff will just come in and like, be like, what are you guys doing? Because they can hear us, like, screaming.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, well, because they hurt.

[Will Smith]

Yeah, they do.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Like, we'll go on the ice, we'll like shoe pox, and then we'll come off and then we'll be like, sting pong. Yeah. So then we turn on music, Then we. Or we play ping pong. Then we're like, sting pong. Yeah. But then we go into sting pong and then we're there for like two hours. And then our backs are mangled.

[Will Smith]

And then your shoulder hurts from swinging so hard.

[Kat]

And how long do these like, welts last on you guys?

[Macklin Celebrini]

Like a day. Like, they don't last long, but they hurt.

[Will Smith]

They do hurt.

[Tyler]

You guys jump right in the cold tip after and then. Then it's all good.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Literally. Yeah.

[Will Smith]

It's the only way to make me feel better.

[Kat]

So reflecting on this season again, as your first season together in the NHL, has there been any favorite moments?

[Macklin Celebrini]

Sewer game in Vancouver?

[Will Smith]

Yeah, I was actually. I had two. I was coming out of my eyes. I was laughing so hard.

[Tyler]

Where was. Where was your guys favorite place to play this year? I mean, I know I hyped Chicago up a lot with the anthem and stuff. Obviously Boston, you would have enjoyed going back to Boston.

[Will Smith]

But besides Boston, probably, like, obviously MSG is like, everyone always says that, but I mean, Chicago, the anthem, I loved Minnesota too. And then the Bell Center.

[Tyler]

So, yeah, Minnesota was loud. It was very loud, actually.

[Will Smith]

I think the Bell center is awesome. I love that place.

[Kat]

Were there any cities you haven't been to yet?

[Macklin Celebrini]

I mean, I think a lot of, like, pretty much every city is like, it's unique and like, it's good. Like, I like a lot of the cities in the NHL. Like, good hotels, nice ranks, like Every place, every ranks a little bit different. But I mean, there are a lot of really, really cool spots that you wouldn't really think of.

[Kat]

Do you guys ever separate for dinners

[Will Smith]

if we have like family? Like. Yeah, rarely.

[Kat]

Though shifting to next season because obviously Ty's been kind of making fun of me that you guys have. Making fun of living with us and kicking me out.

[Macklin Celebrini]

What?

[Kat]

Fess up. What do you. What exactly did you say to Tyler?

[Will Smith]

No,

[Macklin Celebrini]

he said he wanted to kick.

[Will Smith]

We didn't say you had to leave.

[Macklin Celebrini]

We wanted to make fun.

[Tyler]

They said buy Devo Samuel's house and we're gonna live in the guest house. It's literally word for word what they said.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Will Smith]

And then you go, oh, I'll kick cat out so we can just have a man.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, you did say that.

[Tyler]

It came out of the mouth probably.

[Kat]

What'd you say?

[Macklin Celebrini]

Have fun on the couch tonight.

[Kat]

Yeah, literally. He's going in that back unit.

[Jeff]

He's going in the sauna.

[Tyler]

I will go in the sauna.

[Kat]

Okay, so. But real, real realistically, what are you guys. What's it looking like next season for you two? Living wise?

[Will Smith]

We haven't really. We've talked about a little bit, but I think we said once the year ends we'll kind of talk about it and see what comes of it.

[Kat]

Do you have a favorite area that you hang like in San Jose? Los Gatos, anywhere.

[Macklin Celebrini]

I mean we both really like. I mean Los Gatos. It's nice.

[Will Smith]

We like to go to coffee shops and just like people watch. We do that a lot of days.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Really weird.

[Will Smith]

Yeah. Not a weird way like enjoy the weather and stuff.

[Tyler]

That was weird.

[Macklin Celebrini]

That was really weird.

[Will Smith]

We do that every day.

[Kat]

What?

[Jeff]

Like once every couple weeks?

[Will Smith]

We go there every other day.

[Macklin Celebrini]

No, no, we don't.

[Tyler]

What's your guys favorite restaurant around here besides. Well, you guys are doing a pre game at Rollotti sometimes now, but Italian

[Macklin Celebrini]

brothers, all those Cafe Rollottis.

[Kat]

Do you sit outside and people watch there.

[Will Smith]

Okay, now you're gonna make it sound like it's weird.

[Macklin Celebrini]

I'm not watching people. He's watching people. I didn't know we were people watch.

[Will Smith]

Well, me and Tom are go there as people don't know. Tom is Jack Thompson. We go there almost every other day.

[Kat]

So now that we've brought you to a weird place, I do have a weird question for you too. So you know when you look at someone and you can just know right away what animal? Dog, any kind of animal they'd be. What do you see each other as animal wise, give each other a look.

[Jason Demers]

See?

[Julie]

Think about it.

[Will Smith]

Don't say. Don't say some stupid answer.

[Macklin Celebrini]

I know. I know exactly what you say. Yours first.

[Will Smith]

No, I'm still thinking.

[Tyler]

Okay, what would. What would will be?

[Will Smith]

Don't say something.

[Macklin Celebrini]

A donkey.

[Julie]

Because he's.

[Jeff]

He's like, loud. He's like talk. Like, he just talks all the time.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Loud.

[Jeff]

His laugh, like, all that stuff.

[Macklin Celebrini]

And he's not the brightest. So.

[Jeff]

What are you talking about? Have you ever heard a donkey laugh?

[Kat]

That's how Will laughs.

[Macklin Celebrini]

No, it's just how he sounds and he talks.

[Kat]

All right, so Will's a donkey in Max eyes. All right, so vice versa.

[Will Smith]

I don't even know.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Don't say something weird now.

[Will Smith]

Well, I don't. I'm trying to think, like, I was gonna be nice and give you something nice, but not anymore. Like, let's just do it.

[Macklin Celebrini]

There's no nice or not nice. It's just. What?

[Will Smith]

Like, if I said you were like, oh, you're a dog, that'd be nice. But you're not maybe like a parrot. Just cuz, like, they can talk a little bit. They're always kind of yapping and like, jittering around and like, spazzing out a

[Macklin Celebrini]

little bit with a parrot.

[Will Smith]

No, it's nice.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Kat]

Okay, so you're a donkey and a parrot.

[Will Smith]

People love donkeys.

[Tyler]

That's so funny.

[Will Smith]

What would. What would Toph be?

[Tyler]

Golden retriever.

[Will Smith]

Yeah, you're a donkey too.

[Tyler]

Okay.

[Will Smith]

No, you're far from it.

[Tyler]

You're like a warthog. You guys are wild.

[Kat]

All right, explain. Explain. Explain your shrek.

[Jeff]

That's uncalled for. Oh, my God. I would never say something like that. I would never say something like that to you.

[Macklin Celebrini]

That's insane.

[Kat]

Well, last one. What's Thornton?

[Macklin Celebrini]

Jumbo's like a. Like a golden retriever. Yeah, he's like a dog.

[Will Smith]

Like, he's happy.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah. Really happy all the time. It's a great. Every day's a great day. Super welcoming, super nice. You know what I mean?

[Kat]

So we gave. We gave him the one kind of nice one everyone else got. Ty got thrown under the most.

[Macklin Celebrini]

What sweetie said about Ty was kind of insane.

[Kat]

Well, that's crazy. Well, you have something your mom was telling me about. Every year in Boston, you like. It's like your favorite thing of the year that you go back to. It's happening. What, next week?

[Macklin Celebrini]

What is it, the reenactment?

[Will Smith]

Yeah. In my town, Lexington crews should get up at like 4am every morning, go down there and they'll reenact the whole battle of Lexington and Concord. So the British and the. The Minutemen. So it's pretty cool.

[Kat]

Macklin, I think you should join.

[Will Smith]

He yaps about everything. On the bus the other day, he's like, oh, that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Oh, then he thought, he thought, he thought the battle of Lexington. Concord is Lexington, my town. And then they went back to Concord in England. He thought they were just going back and forth like a home and away.

[Macklin Celebrini]

That's not what I said. That's what he interpreted.

[Kat]

It would just take like years at a time and like an old school ship to go back.

[Will Smith]

I tried to explain it to him. He's like, you're not historian. You don't know what you're talking about.

[Kat]

I'm like, well, I would love to see you both like dressed up in like timepieces together at that thing eventually. That'd be pretty funny to see.

[Macklin Celebrini]

You imagine I'm on Concord side, you're on Lexington for battling it out.

[Kat]

I think we'll start wrapping things up and how we do that is we always ask some quick hitter questions. So I'm going to ask you a bunch of questions so you think of the first things that. That comes to mind. So what TV show are you watching together right now?

[Will Smith]

We watch more movies, but the tires. Shane Gillis.

[Macklin Celebrini]

We were watching that. Yeah.

[Kat]

Oh, yeah. When Ty. When we ran into him at the Super Bowl. Ty was pumped to send you guys a picture.

[Will Smith]

I want to meet him.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Real.

[Will Smith]

He seems awesome.

[Macklin Celebrini]

We gotta meet.

[Kat]

Is he. He's your favorite comedian? Probably.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah.

[Will Smith]

I just think he's an all around good guy. He just seems like.

[Macklin Celebrini]

It seems like a great guy.

[Kat]

Favorite movies you throw on together on the road genres. What are we watching?

[Will Smith]

Kind of depends. Sometimes we get into like John Wick or comedy.

[Kat]

Yeah.

[Macklin Celebrini]

It's just random.

[Will Smith]

Whatever we're feeling.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah. Whatever we put on.

[Kat]

Do we ever throw on like a rom com?

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Will Smith]

Oh, what was the movie?

[Macklin Celebrini]

Definitely maybe. Yeah. That's a good one.

[Kat]

Mac, you can answer this. How do we feel about scary movies?

[Macklin Celebrini]

I don't like them. I don't like scary movies.

[Kat]

Not for.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, I don't really want to get scared.

[Kat]

Most used emoji. And act it out, please.

[Macklin Celebrini]

[Kat]

Yep.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Cry. Laughing.

[Kat]

That's so on brand. It's crazy.

[Will Smith]

So don't even know what that means.

[Kat]

Well, I actually thought that this would be more of a giggle fest than you guys actually putting real world words in this entire interview. So for that to be your most used emoji, kind of checks out.

[Will Smith]

Favorite song, Pony by Ginuin.

[Kat]

Sing a lyric.

[Will Smith]

[Will Smith]

It's like that.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Yeah, I just don't know. I don't know the lyrics.

[Will Smith]

I'm forgetting him right now.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Reason.

[Kat]

Have you ever cooked for each other?

[Will Smith]

No.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Unless. Oh, how about this time? So looking for food after the game? There's no. No, we, like, get some from the rink, but then I think it was like, a Saturday or something. We have Sunday off. We just want to, like. We went to the grocery store, grabbed a couple things. It's like, all right, let's just grab, like, a small microwave pizza so we can just like. Or throw it in the. He has, like, this pizza oven here. Throw it in the oven. Just have a slice. So we go grab it. He puts it in the oven. We're waiting for it. 20, 30 minutes goes by, takes it out, and he, like, looks at it.

[Will Smith]

He goes.

[Macklin Celebrini]

I think there's a. Or he goes to cut it, and he's like, was I supposed to cook it with the cardboard under it? We were like, ah, it looked good, though. Could we still eat it?

[Jeff]

Like, because it was, like.

[Macklin Celebrini]

Looked pretty good. But no, we ended up just throwing it away.

[Kat]

You probably order a lot, then. Probably answer this question. A bunch. But what's your, like, cookies order?

[Will Smith]

Warm chocolate chip cookie. I like glass of milk with it.

[Kat]

Great. And do you have a favorite place that you. Awkward. Do you have a favorite place that you order from?

[Will Smith]

Well, we usually only get on the

[Kat]

road, but what hotel has the best one?

[Will Smith]

The one in Fort Lauderdale.

[Macklin Celebrini]

I didn't have that one. We weren't roommates.

[Kat]

So you're not always roommates?

[Will Smith]

Depends. Like, if we call up guys or something. Depends.

[Kat]
